The parking is only 20 Swedish Kronors whether you have Micra or an early 70.s Caddie.\nA-Ford looking for a new home, perhaps a nice candidate for new production body or any kind of custom phantom job.\nI don't know, perhaps I am getting old, finally... But it is kind of sentimental to see an old bus, and it is kind of easy to forget the shakes of the big noicy diesel, and the lack of air-condition in a warm sweaty day.\nThe typical European Ford was the Taunus and I guess that this classic is an '62 model. Not a winner on any speed contense. 0 - 100 km/h in a hour and half, but offered a ride to its proud owner back in the early sixities.\nI was sneaking around they before the event and caught this '37 Plymonth? four door sedan prowling around. In suede dress and four doors it seem to be a good presentatnion the current vougue in rodding\nWhile driving home from te event ran in to this car, a late fifties Plymonth four door sedan converted in to roadster or a convertible buddie hauler.\nI saw this very nice HD at the event but I missed the chance to shoot it, but I caught up with it after the event.\nAfter the show when shooting the bike seen above I ran in to this SAAB V4 from the mid-sixities...\nand this SAAB 92 from earlier vintage. The SAAB was originally domestic airoplane manufactor which provided military air craft to the Swedish Air Force from the WW II and their latest Jas 39 Gripen is the backbone of the air force today. But as people after the war could afford a small car both Volvo and SAAB designed small car affordable to every one...\nIn my opinion this BSA was one of the highlights...\nIt is kind of a suprice to see a '32 Ford as the way Henry Ford delivered it to the customers. And I guess this is the first time I have seen it in non customized version. So I decided to take few shots from different angles for modellers....\nThe absolute show stopper was this '55 Chevy Bel Air coupe. Note how nice the original looks goes along with modern rims. A very nice car...\nA '64 Impala convertible seen at the parking lot...\nA late fifties Merc Hard Top looked like this. More conservative than the cars from late fourties and early fifties. The swedes love those US-cars from this era.\nBack in the Europe, which was fast rebuilt fast after the WW II and soon enough the car producers could offer people a small cars like this early Ford Taunus 12 M in estate version. The digit 12, was not just modell name but displays also the engine size of 1.2 liter. This car was dressed as street racer or Cal Looker!! with decals and blackened crome.\nThis early sixites Pontiac soft top was for sale. A teaser for the sunny, warm summer nights...\nThis might look like a basket case of junk to most of the people, but a pretty complete starting point for a restorer.\nA front view of the BSA seen earlier, looking like doing 200 miles per hour while standing still.\nA more economical version of Ford in stead of the fancy Fairlaines...\nI have a weekness for GM,s F-cars and this Firebird looked pretty brutal from this angle.\nAah, look at this... I guess one of the most innocent looking cars are the '40 Ford. But this Blue Candy Tudor looked just nice and anything else than innocent. A very, very nice car.\nMore Swapmeet images?\npage 2>>\nWebdesign & Photos:Ollie Ahokas, e-mail:\nOlliehokas@.yahoo.se\n."}
{"text": "COLUMBIA, SC -- Florida Sen. Marco Rubio on Saturday slammed President Barack Obama for being the most divisive figure in American politics.\n\"The man who today occupies the White House and is running for president is a very different person,\" Rubio said at a high-profile GOP fundraiser, where he claimed Obama has abandoned the ideals he ran on in 2008. \"We have not seen such a divisive figure in modern American history than we have over the last three and one-half years.\"\nRubio delivered the dig in front of nearly 1,000 South Carolina Republicans at the Silver Elephant Dinner, one of the state's biggest gatherings of GOPers and whose keynote speaker in 2011 was former presidential candidate Rick Santorum. The junior senator from the Sunshine State drew praise from the state's most influential conservatives who took the stage before him, including Sens. Lindsey Graham and Jim DeMint and Gov. Nikki Haley.\nChoosing to speak in the early primary state also gave rise to speculation about Rubio's future political ambitions. As a young and popular Hispanic senator from a swing state, he has found himself in the midst of vice presidential speculation. But this event, along with his address earlier this month to a group of influential Iowa businesspeople, has fueled questions about the possibility of a Rubio presidential run.\n\"I didn't know much about Marco other than all the hype that doesn't do you justice,” Graham said. “I've got a chance to travel with Marco, he's the future of the Republican party like [Rep.] Tim [Scott].\nWhile Rubio did not so much as mention Mitt Romney's name, he did prove he could play attack dog, spending the top of his speech critiquing the president for failing to live up to his campaign promises.\n\"The president and his party’s view of America’s government and our lives is a failed one,” Rubio said. “It hasn’t worked. His ideas that sounded so good in the classrooms of Harvard and Yale haven’t really worked out well in the real world.\"\nBut what may set him apart from other potential VP shortlisters is Rubio's compelling personal narrative. His parents left Cuba for America, where his father worked as a bartender and his mother a maid. It was on Saturday nights, Rubio said, that his father stood behind a bar.\n\"That journey behind that bar to this podium before you tonight, it’s my personal story as our family. But it happens to be our story as a nation,\" he said. \"Because you see every single one of us, no matter who you are here tonight, every single one of us can trace our history back to someone who made it the purpose of their lives to ensure that we would have the opportunities they never did.\"\nRubio has denied any speculation about possible vice presidential ambitions, but his popularity outside his home state was on display Saturday night. The freshman senator drew applause equal only to that of DeMint, the tea party favorite and South Carolina native.\n\"In the end, as frustrated as sometimes we may get with the leadership of our own party on one issue or another, the logical home of the limited government, constitutional republican principles of our nation is the Republican party,\" Rubio said. \"The logical home for the defense of the free enterprise system is the Republican party. It is the only organization in modern American politics that is still capable at this moment of driving forward these concepts and these principles that are so important for our future.\""}

{"text": "Here’s an adorable LEGO® owl to build – turn a knob on his back, and his head turns!\nAidan and I built this owl by modifying a design that we saw in a LEGO owl project done by Rice University. Their owls also flap their wings when you turn the knob! We decided to simplify things a little and just do a moving head, although our wings are still posable. We patterned the colors after the markings on Great Horned Owls – my favorite type of owl.\nGresham designed a baby owl to go with the mother or father owl, and they look adorable together.\n(Side note: My parents’ neighbors have had a family of screech owls living in an owl box in their tree. They feed the owls mice, which the mother and father both catch and kill and give to the babies. It was fascinating to see them. Now that they have established a nest at this box, they will continue to come back year after year. Makes me want to put an owl box in our yard!)\nSo WHOOOOOO’s ready to make one?\nI usually start instructions with the head, but we’re going to start with the body this time. I don’t know why, but it just seemed like a good idea.\nStep 1: Build the feet. Each foot has a 2 x 3 gray plate, a 1 x 3 brown plate, a 1 x 2 brown plate, and three claws. You will also need a 2 x 4 brick to keep the body from tipping over.\nStep 2: Attach the feet and the 2 x 4 brick to the bottom of some round pieces as shown.\nStep 3: Flip it over and add a 4 x 4 plate.\nStep 4: Add more brown plates around the 4 x 4 plate as shown, but on the back use a 1 x 4 brick instead of a plate. The black piece will hold the rod used to turn the head. It’s a turntable, 4 x 4 square base, and it is LEGO® part #61485. Here is a link to order it on Brick Link. (I prefer Brick Link over the Pick-A-Brick section on lego.com because your order will arrive much more quickly!)\nIf you don’t have the turntable piece, check your pieces to find something with a round hole in the center.\nStep 5: Pieces added in this step: four 1 x 2 inverted slopes, two 1 x 4 bricks on front, two 1 x 4 bricks on the side, and two 1 x 4 plates just behind the black piece.\nStep 6: These are the pieces we used to build the knob.\nStep 7: Slide the gear, then the 1 x 2 Technic brick, then the Technic bush, then the knob onto the black Technic axle (4 studs long). Attach this to the owl.\nStep 8: Cover the knob mechanism with two 1 x 2 bricks and a 1 x 4 plate.\nStep 9: Add another gear and another Technic axle. This one is 10 studs long.\nStep 10: Add four 2 x 4 bricks to the back of the owl.\nStep 11: Add a 2 x 4 brick and a 2 x 4 plate on each side of the owl.\nStep 12: From here, just build up the body of the owl. You can see that we added a 4 x 4 round plate with a round hole in the middle to support the axle that will turn the head. Make sure that your round plate has a round hole and not an x shaped hole – otherwise it won’t turn.\nStep 13: This is how our owl looked when the body was complete.\nStep 14: Gather a 4 x 4 round brick and the tiles shown to build the neck.\nStep 15: Add the 4 x 4 round brick. Again, it should have a round hole.\nStep 16: Add the tiles. The owl’s head is going to sit right on the body, so the tiles will allow the head to turn easily.\nStep 17: The photo below shows how we attached the wings using a piece with a handle and a piece with clips.\nStep 18: Build the head. Start with these pieces – all plates (flat bricks).\nStep 19: Add a layer of bricks as shown. Note the these bricks aren’t really attached to each other yet.\nStep 20: Add two 1 x 1 bricks in the front and two 1 x 1 bricks with a stud on the side. The 1 x 2 with one stud and the yellow slope will be the beak.\nStep 21: Add another layer of bricks. Two more 1 x 1 bricks with a stud on the side will hold the eyes.\nStep 22: Add a layer of brown bricks to the head.\nStep 23: Add slopes on both sides and another layer of brown bricks.\nStep 24: On the very top of the head I used more plates, and two of them had round corners. Then a 4 x 4 plate centered on top of the head and some slopes as “horns.”\nStep 25: Each eye is a 4 x 4 white round plate and a 2 x 2 black round plate. I attached two 1 x 1 round plates to the studs where the eyes will go so that they don’t bump into the piece that holds the nose.\nStep 26: Attach the head to the rod sticking out of the body. The rod will go through the round brick in the bottom of the head.\nIsn’t he adorable? We have all had so much fun playing with him and making him turn his head!\nHere’s a view from the back:\nAnd a view with the baby:\nI am sharing this project as part of LEGO week – a collaborative effort with several awesome bloggers!

{"text": "Immediately following the first verse, we say quietly, “Barukh Shem kevod malkhuto le-olam va-ed” (“Blessed is the name of His glorious kingdom for all eternity”). Although this passage does not appear in the Shema paragraph and is not a verse from Tanakh, the Sages ordained its recitation as part of Shema based on an ancient tradition.\nThe Talmud (Pesaĥim 56a) recounts that before the patriarch Yaakov died, all of his sons gathered around him. He wished to disclose the end of days, but at that moment the Shekhina left him and he could not tell them. He asked his sons, “Perhaps one of you is not righteous, like Yishmael who came from Avraham and Esav who came from my father Yitzĥak, and that is preventing me from disclosing the end of days to you?” They all replied as one: “‘Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.’ Just like there is only One in your heart, there is only One in our hearts.” At that moment, Yaakov said, “Barukh Shem kevod malkhuto le-olam va-ed.” The Sages ask, “What should we do? Should we recite this sentence even though it is not written in the Torah? Should we omit it even though Yaakov said it?” Therefore they ordained that it is recited quietly.\nThis sentence is considered a continuation of the acceptance of the yoke of heaven found in the first verse, and therefore also requires that one concentrate on the meaning of the words (MB 63:12). As we learned, it is proper for women to recite the first two verses of Shema daily.\nOne should pause briefly between “le-olam va’ed” and “Ve-ahavta” (“You shall love”) in order to distinguish between the acceptance of the yoke of heaven and the rest of the paragraph. Also, it is proper to pause between the first verse and “Barukh shem” to differentiate between the acceptance of the yoke of heaven as commanded by the Torah and the enactment of the Sages (SA and Rema 61:14).\nAlthough God’s unity is extremely profound concept, we will nonetheless briefly discuss its meaning. The first verse, Shema Yisrael, expresses the greatest, most absolute, most unified form of belief and is called “yiĥud elyon” (the higher unification). In this conception, nothing other than God has any real existence; rather He is alone, and we are all non-existent in relation to Him. Since God’s omnipotence is not revealed in this world, it is difficult to grasp the higher unification on a permanent basis. But twice daily, when we recite Shema Yisrael, we are commanded to rise to this level. The second verse is called “yiĥud taĥton” (the lower unification). By reciting it, we accept upon ourselves the yoke of heaven according to the level of belief that remains paramount in this world: the belief that the world really, tangibly exists and God gives it life and rules over it. By His will He adds life to it, or heaven forbid, takes life away from it. This is the meaning of the statement that His name and sovereignty are revealed in this world, as we say, “Blessed is the name of His glorious kingdom for all eternity” (Tanya, Sha’ar Ha-yiĥud Ve-ha-emuna; Nefesh Ha-ĥayim, part 3)."}

{"text": "Most of the countries outside of ASEAN that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has visited are home to a large number of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs). But while OFWs tend to live normal and free lives in places like Korea, China’s Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Singapore, Australia, North America and the European Union, in the Gulf monarchies of the Arab world, OFWs typically hold jobs where they are directly employed as personal assistants or labourers. At times the conditions of such workers becomes dire as the prominent murder of an OFW in Kuwait and the suicide of two OFWs including one in Saudi Arabia attests to.\nSaudi Arabia has long been known to be a difficult place for foreign workers. Stories from 2016 documented how thousands of Indian workers in Saudi Arabia were left stranded without the ability to obtain assistance from their country’s embassy in Riyadh. It is against this background that it becomes clear that Rodrigo Duterte’s emphasis on protecting and reaching out to OFWs in both free countries and less than free countries has played a vital role in improving the conditions of literally millions of OFWs.\nWhen the murder of a Filipina worker in Kuwait became publicly known early this year, President Duterte temporarily banned Filipinos from travelling to Kuwait while the embassy of The Philippines in Kuwait helped to evacuate several OFWs who had been working for abusive employers. While Kuwait responded furiously to the evacuations of OFWs, negotiations between Duterte’s administration and the Kuwaiti authorities resulted in not only the rapid restoration of relations but in Kuwait amending its domestic laws to better protect the rights and OFWs.\nThis week, a group of nineteen OFWs were arrested in Saudi Arabia after attending a Halloween themed party at a private resort. The arrests were reportedly due to male and female friends gathering together in public which is a criminal offence in Saudi Arabia. It has also been reported that due to the Halloween theme of the party, some of the OFWs were also charged with engaging in witchcraft which is also a criminal offence in the reactionary Kingdom. Yet just a day after their arrests, Saudi Arabia released all of the OFWs without charge after private contacts with Duterte administration officials.\nAs Saudi Arabia’s state executed murder of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi has got many people throughout the world discussing Riyadh’s treatment of individuals engaged in otherwise normal and peaceful activities, it is important to remember that many overseas workers from multiple nations have faced extraordinary hardship in a nation whose laws tend to be out of step with the wider world while the Kingdom’s culture continues to foster a ‘master-servant’ environment in the workplace that is very much at odds with many other nations in which OFWs work. While Jamal Khashoggi’s murder received global attention, the treatment of overseas workers in Saudi Arabia has rarely made headline news.\nWhile the lack of foreign direct investment in The Philippines due to the Liberal authored 1987 Constitution continues to force many Filipinos to seek work overseas, until such Constitutional reforms are implemented and begin to reshape the country, President Duterte’s support for OFWs will remain vitally important. Saudi Arabia may well have not released the OFWs were The Philippines governed by someone less adamantly supportive of the human rights of OFWs than President Duterte. This is a fact that few OFWs will deny.\nPresident Duterte has visited multiple nations in the Middle East where Filipinos work including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan and Israel. During each of these visits, Duterte raised the issue of OFWs in a way that no previous Philippine leader had dare to do. While other leaders did not look beyond the shores of The Philippines, Duterte has extended his influence to protect and engage with Filipinos throughout the world whose decision to leave their homeland was motivated more by necessity than by anything else.\nWhile Duterte’s domestic achievements correctly dominate discussions among his supporters, his diplomatic achievements for OFWs cannot be overlooked. Thanks to Duterte’s willingness to engage with the many diverse and even difficult places where some OFWs reside, 19 Filipinos who did something that would be automatically legal in almost every other country in the world are now free after falling afoul of Saudi Arabia’s often perplexing legal system. This itself is a noteworthy accomplishment among Duterte’s many acts and deeds in support of the global OFW community."}

{"text": "Soccer is a very fast-paced game and having good boots make a big difference in the way you play. Today there are many kinds of soccer boots on the market, and the best is indeed expensive. Therefore, you should carefully choose them to make sure what you choose complements and improve your playing style. If you are into buying soccer boots, be sure to consider the following factors:\nDo they allow your feet to feel the ball? The leather is the all-time most popular material for high-quality football boots mainly because it enables the footballer to kick or nudge the ball very well. Leather is also very comfortable to wear as it allows the circulation of air around the foot. Synthetic materials compared to their leather counterparts neither useful nor comfortable unless you have the latest shoe makings, which are quite expensive.\nConsider if the boots are light and flexible, your shoes should never weigh your feet down as it will reduce your responsiveness when the pitch. In addition to lightness, they must be very flexible over the width to suit the natural flexibility of the foot. The toe area should be tight and rigid to help you to shoot effectively.\nAre the shoes comfortable? Comfort is a crucial factor to consider because you’ll be on your boot and feet throughout the game. The shoes should not stick or rub against your feet at any time. In addition, placing the studs must be absolutely correct to prevent any discomfort. However, most people make the mistake of despising comfort in favour of appearance.\nCan the studs be changed easily? When you are a footballer, you’ll find yourself playing football on a variety of different surfaces and in varying weather conditions. The cleats need to be changed to handle the different situation. Often players need to change the height of the studs. The ability to do the change quickly and easily is very important.\nHave a clear budget before you go out looking for the perfect soccer boot. Ask yourself if the pair of shoes fits your budget? If you can afford any number of soccer boots, then you should go ahead and buy the most expensive pairs of each pair. Ideally, you need shoes for regular grounds and as well as for the artificial astroturf ground. It is better to buy the best shoes at a fair price, rather than the over-hyped ones\nThere are so many boot models from the brands, and each new one seems to come with additional beneficial features. To keep your finances in check, it is best that you stick to a price range no matter how tempting the salesman makes a boot look. Find good selection here at R-GOL.. It even helps to the research of a few of the best, so you are sure what you are looking for when you finally go to buy.\nOnce you have the right soccer boots, then be sure to a good impression on the pitch. Take your time while making a selection so that you make the right choice."}

{"text": "Venue Directory\nFirst Christian Church of Houston\nFirst Christian Church started in the last decades of the 19th Century as a vision of Dr. J.A. Throckmorton, a respected local physician. His dream was to start the very first Disciples of Christ congregation in Houston. He pulled together a group of 15 people who met for worship and prayer in his upstairs office downtown. In 1871, they held services in a Fifth ward school house, where they met faithfully for the next 15 years.\nThe church built its first building at Capital and Caroline under the leadership of J.C. Mason in 1889. The membership grew to nearly 500, with an estimated average worship attendance of 350.\nThe congregation outgrew its building and erected a new building at Main and Bell, where it thrived most significantly under the leadership of Dr. Harry G. Knowles. Dr. Knowles was known throughout the city of Houston as the “Radio Parson” for his insightful radio ministry. First Christian became a truly metropolitan church that cast a wide net of influence throughout the city. Membership records indicate that the church exceeded 2,300, with an estimated average worship attendance of 1,200-1,500 people.\nFor 70 years First Christian Church had one of the most impactful ministies not only in the city of Houston but the entire southern region. The congregation gave generously and unselfishly, it produced many faithful Christ-followers and it provided Christian leadership for two generations for the kingdom of God.\nThe congregation again outgrew this location at Main and Bell, and began construction of its present location at Sunset and Rice in 1959. The congregation entered into this transition operating at its highest levels in terms of people involved, ministry done and the impact it made throughout the City.\nIn 2004, we once again ventured into a building project. This time is was to build a brand new wing off of the existing church for our First Christian Church School. This build out process included the addition of a new gymnasium, transformation of our current sanctuary into a more modern layout, and also general upgrades and maintenance throughout the campus.\nFirst Christian is located in one of the most strategic locations for ministry and outreach sitting across the street from Rice University and surrounded by the Texas Medical Center and Museum District. We are located near a mid-town area that is booming with new condominiums and young professionals, many of whom need a vital life that a relationship with Jesus can bring. We are easily accessible from nearly every point of the compass. God has placed us here for the purpose of making disciples, which we are endeavoring to understand in a new way.\nAt-a-\nGlance\nContact Info\nFirst Christian Church of Houston\n1601 Sunset Boulevard\nHouston, TX 77005\nPhone: 713-526-2561 \|"}

The reference notes the appearance of the “first rod” at ~ 0.13 mm from the foveal center. Just beyond this point, one observes the first, statistically still rare, rod/rod apposition. I would propose following the nano-antenna explanation of this work that this represents a short wavelength light interaction site that has been misinterpreted as a “blue sensitive cone” (please remember that the use of “color” should not be used for light interaction at this point on the retina – a narrow band of light wavelengths interact that have not yet been synthesized into the hues of color).\nThis statistical and rare distribution of, what now can be seen as, short wavelength light detection sites on the retina seems in consonance with historical findings of their scarcity, location, and distribution.\nI add a Figure from George Wald (with legend) that he used to illustrate the magnitude of the change in the distribution of cones and rods in the region near the foveal edge. This is a tricky place to make measurements!\nIt will be pointed contesting this conclusion that the “gene has been identified for the blue cone”. I would answer that there is certainly truth in this oft used type of statement but that it is incomplete in saying nothing about the mechanism or mechanisms involved in effecting the action of this genetic information. Genes code for, in cooperation with many other genes, the synthesis of protein structures. I would argue that if one talks about “blue sensitive cones” the identified gene would involve protein/structural mechanisms involved in formation of the diameter of the rod receptor. It is this diameter setting the receptor appositional nano-antenna distance that determines short wavelength (improperly termed “blue”) response ( I would add that any change in this rod dimension would alter the cone/rod ratio that would in-turn move the location of the geoemtrically-determined mid band point on the retinal surface – leading to ‘color blindness’?). If one talks about the gene that codes for the “blue pigment”, I would propose that the mechanism involved would be alteration of the physical size of the protein structure (or ”cage”) for the retinal molecule formed by the rhodopsin moeity. All is geometry!\nGCH\nOjai,CA\n1.16.11"}

{"text": "Why is food delivery always late? We thought we would explain.\nHere’s what happens when you place an order with a restaurant or an online ordering site. The cooks receive the orders and try to prepare the food as quickly as they can, while accommodating take-out and delivery orders that come in at different times. They are also sending out food to diners at the restaurant itself.\nOnce your meal is prepared, it is transferred to a standard Styrofoam container that threatens to spill the food in the plastic bag. And then the food waits. And waits.\nWhy this delay? Very often, the person in charge of delivering the food hasn’t yet returned from another delivery. He may be stuck in traffic, or lost, or at the other end of town. In the meantime, your food is getting cold and its quality is deteriorating. By the time the delivery gets to you, it is late, lukewarm and leaking. That’s not how dinner should be.\nHere is how Stadium is turning around food delivery in New York.\n1. Our restaurant partners don’t deliver your food; they only focus on preparing it. Stadium picks up the food from them and delivers it to you on time.\n2. Members preorder their food. This gives restaurants time to plan the meal and gives Stadium time to plan how it will be delivered to you.\n3. The food is packaged in strong, eco-friendly containers. There are no leaks.\n4. The food is hot and ready-to-eat because it did not sit out on a counter waiting to be picked up. It also did not visit the other end of town before arriving at your door.\n5. Stadium is local. Right now, we are only serving select areas of the city so that we can ensure that the food gets to all our members on time. We don’t try to stretch our reach at the cost of your dinner.\nIt’s time to say goodbye to late delivery and mediocre food. Stadium is bringing you fresh, hot dinners that arrive at your door exactly when you want it."}

{"text": "My family has always been warm-hearted towards animals. As I grew up, I witnessed my Grandfather’s passion for dogs, my father’s interest in deers and my elder brother’s love for peacocks. We have lived with them all! Truly it’s all about my family and other animals! 😉\nIn fact, one of my cherished memories is that every time the female peacock laid eggs, we would get a hen to sit on them, till they hatched. Baby peacocks, similar to chicks in their initial phases would follow the female hen all around the back garden, thinking that she was their mother. For some odd reason this always makes me smile. Amazes me and makes me wonder if the hen was also as alienated from truth as were baby peacocks and thought she actually was their mother.\nDays, months and years passed. We moved to a different city and I was finally old enough to set my feet in London as a post graduate student. Living away from home and family is never easy. You are like a child who’s growing up and learning something new every day. This was the time in my life when I met my first pet, a goldfish.\nI happened to attend a family friend’s son’s birthday where they had a placed a fish bowl on every guest table. At the end of the party, these were given away to the guests and I was lucky enough to be a proud owner of a goldfish.\nAs typical as it might sound, my first worry was what would I call her and it took me less than an hour to figure that out. I decided to call her Shahzadi which literally translates to Princess in Urdu. My late aunty used to affectionately call me that so there was definitely an emotional connection with the name.\nIn an Asian family, when you are new to something, expect advises and suggestions to pour in from everywhere.\nDon’t feed her too much, she might die! Don’t feed her too less, she could die! Clean her bowl often or she could die! Don’t put her in the windowsill or she might die! Don’t put her away from Sunlight or she could die!\nYou get how I felt?\nMy motherly instincts took over me. My day started with feeding her and cleaning her water and it ended with feeding her and cleaning her water. In between, I would just sit and talk to her. Almost every day! Watching her swim through the bowl, sometimes calmly, sometimes ferociously was a great therapy. There was a connection, it seemed like she was understanding my stories and reacting with her swimming speed.\nIt was a different feeling, something I had not experienced before and it made me happy. Very Happy.\nIt was all perfect until one miserable sunny afternoon when the entire London was celebrating 29 degrees temperature. I turned on the tap to change her water and my eyes caught her floating on top of the water surface in the bowl. I knew it. Instantly.\nI shut the tap and dipped my finger in water. It was hot because of the weather and even till date I believe she died because of that. Losing her, like getting her was a different experience altogether. It pained a lot. Shahzadi was gone…\nI cried a lot for her that day. It made me think of all my friends who had lost their dogs, cats and parrots. I felt the agony, it stung like a bruise from a deep injury that pierces through. Associations with first pets are very different. As mad as it might sound but she was in my life at a time when I need that affection and sense of ownership the most. I was really sad when she left and even though my family got me another goldfish after this, it was never the same. That feeling was gone with Shahzadi.\nMay my Shahzadi rest in peace in her big kingdom – blue waters of the mighty ocean.\nxxx\nNote: Shahzadi died in 2011\n14 comments on “Shahzadi – My First Pet”\nI live you little fellow awe.\nI guess you meant Love? i love her too\nAww … sad and heartwarming story.\nThanks Silvia…long time! Always appreciate your feedback xxx\nFirst loves, we never really get over them. Lovely story.\nSo true. Firsts are very special and no matter what happens and how many replacements we find, it just doesnt feel that way.\nThat’s actually my full name 🙂 What a beautiful and touching post <3\nhaha is it?

Often the use of poetry and verse perform a purpose as a beginning or an introduction. It can be there to salute those of courage, or to even commemorate those that have struggled to ensure freedom for all. They have a way of keeping one grounded to current events, while reflecting and expressing so much throughout the years. Acolytes fashion a language of love, friendship and existence while battling the odds.\nThe lines of verse, the poetic song of words, stands to reach out and touch the inner heart straight to the soul. It resounds with such loud rhythmical praise that the flow of words is like a calm moving brook that makes one feel complete peace. Thus are the words that Ms. Giovanni pens in her elaborate works for all to feel. She takes prescribed amounts of prose and stirs in the right ingredient to create heart-tugging empathy that never disappoints. With a surge of flowing motivation, works of art come to life.\nAcolytes is a book that shows those who imparted their talents and heart for a cause they supported. From many varieties that carry literature, sports, music and many others, with names such as the great Rosa Parks, Jackie Robinson, The Isley Brothers and many more, Ms. Giovanni shares the spotlight with others as she touches upon memoirs with numerous friends, family and loved ones that impacted her life in one way or another. I was touched by the way she mentioned her mother and the delicious foods she prepared and how she had influenced her life, not to mention the love and respect for her librarian, Mrs. Long. From contributors all over, this wide range of poetic inspiration is very uplifting in every page.\nNikki Giovanni remarkably creates some great inspirational moments from countless number of poets that have left an impression on her life, as well as granted her with books and awards that show a strong voice with the Black Arts Movement and is displayed in Acolytes. She wanted to make a difference, especially during the civil rights movement. With over eighty poetic verses in her book, she reaches out to the female, and a wide range of spectators, allowing the heart and mind to open to a new experience while triggering a miraculous beat to the soul. I think my favorite was I Am in Mexico, along with the tempting recipes she graciously gives to her readers and pleasurable encounters that make the reader feel as if they have come home to arms open with a bonding love.\nCherokee\nReviewer for Coffee Time Romance\nReviewer for Karen Find Out About New Books\nAwards \| Author Services \| Contact Information \| New Author Information"}

{"text": "Here come the drones! Today we kicked off a one-of-a-kind collaboration with the Drone Racing League (DRL), a cutting- edge, technology–first sports company where the world’s best drone pilots race high speed drones though elaborate courses in iconic locations around the globe. We are teaming up with DRL to fuel 5G innovation in two fast growing markets – drones and tech-powered sports. As we look at use cases for 5G, drones have to be one of the most compelling – and entertaining! Our partnership with DRL begins with the development of custom DRL racing drones powered by T-Mobile 5G. And from there we will create immersive new experiences for sports fans. But reimagining sports entertainment is just one way 5G will change our world.\nFrom being the engine behind a new self-service economy, to industrial IoT, security monitoring, emergency response and so much more, autonomous 5G drones will dramatically transform industry and commerce.\nT-Mobile’s History of Drone Innovation\nT-Mobile has been active in drone development since 2015 working to integrate drones with the network to enable operations such as delivery services and infrastructure inspection. T-Mobile is a member of the Small UAV Coalition, an industry group focused on drone legislation and policy at the federal level. And T-Mobile is active in policy and technology forums such as the FAA Technical Advisory Committee for Drone Remote Identification and Tracking, The FAA’s Drone Integration Pilot Program and the FAA’s industry cohort for Remote Identification implementation.\nOur goal is to help safely integrate small UAVs into the national air space and fuel innovation that will drive economic growth by bringing new services and capabilities to businesses and consumers. With T-Mobile 5G we are working to unlock advanced drone operations such as flight that goes well beyond line of sight.\nOne application we are making great progress on is the development of drones for emergency response - basically putting mini cell sites on drones. And with a Standalone nationwide 5G network and Extended Range 5G service using 600 MHz spectrum, we see tremendous opportunity to enable both line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight connectivity using 5G drones in the future for search and rescue operations as well to fly in temporary cellular connectivity.\nSo Many 5G Use Cases for Drones!\nThe opportunities that exist for drones are endless. In the public health realm, consider just this one example, Unmanned Life. This innovative company recently graduated from the T-Mobile Accelerator and is developing autonomous drones to disinfect public places in the UK to help fight COVID-19. In addition, it will deploy autonomous UAVs within the Oxford region to deliver medical supplies from pharmacies to patients at home fighting COVID-19. What a timely new use case that no one could have imagined just 9 months ago!\nAt a time when consumers are putting health and safety at the top of their shopping lists, drone services can also pave the way for the next generation of digital-first, touchless commerce powered by T-Mobile’s 5G network. In the ever-evolving retail space, we have come a long way with advancing the self-service economy, but on-demand drone and robotic delivery will take contactless shopping to new levels.\nAutonomous drone swarms will also unlock industrial IoT applications across numerous vertical industries. Coordination of drone swarms in the sky and on the ground will require Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for these systems to work together, and cloud or edge computing to provide the necessary communication latency. With each device in a swarm having its own cameras and sensors feeding data into the system, this kind of complexity will rely on the type of high-bandwidth, low-latency 5G network that T-Mobile is building.\nT-Mobile 5G, a Platform for 5G Drone Innovation\nThe key for drone services to become ubiquitous is having a highly reliable, responsive broad coverage Standalone 5G network to manage all the traffic. Whether it is a new pair of jeans going to a teen in the suburbs of Seattle or medical supplies going to a doctor in rural America, maintaining a constant and reliable 5G connection from the warehouse to the customer will be key. This level of 5G network reliability and coverage is exactly what T-Mobile is building.\nLow latency is key to drone development taking off, as it will enable quick coordination of drones in the air and the ability for Traffic Management Systems to approach real-time awareness of drones and other obstacles. Standalone 5G is the foundation for low-latency, ultra-reliable applications and T-Mobile was first in the world to launch a nationwide Standalone 5G network.

{"text": "Prizefighter\n- Artist: Connor O'Brien\n- Format: CD\n- Release Date:5/22/2007\nOver two years in the making, Connor O'Brien's brand new album, 'Prizefighter' represents the greatest work of his career to date. From the smash piano ballad, 'Blue Room' to the mid-tempo pop-rock anthems of 'Feeling Again' and 'Falling To Pieces' (Featured on the WB's, Roswell) and even the seven minute rock opus of 'Reconcile', this album finds Connor at full stride as a producer, engineer, songwriter and vocalist. ----------- Connor O'Brien Biography Connor O'Brien's music is powerful. In fact, Ohio's largest newsweekly, Scene Magazine, may have described it best when it called Connor's music 'a near-perfect blend of buoyant pop and acrobatic rock.' A classical violinist since the age of five, Connor seemed set for a future in the orchestra until he learned that he could sing... and sing like no one else. His rare voice led him to be accepted into all 11 music conservatories he auditioned for after high school, but he chose to attend the prestigious Eastman School of Music of New York, with it's world- renowned opera department. After fine tuning his performances touring the country in a nationally ranked a cappella group, and playing some of the nation's major venues; Connor set his mind to turning a musical 360° and launching his rock career. Connor's eponymously titled first CD featured the hit song 'Inside Out,' a self-penned tune that received radio airplay all over the U.S. and eventually, along with other accolades, charted to the #1 spot in France. And audiences have responded. Connor has shared the stage with such national acts as Mariah Carey, Vertical Horizon, Edwin McCain, and Huey Lewis among others. He has been featured in numerous magazines and newspapers along with making several national television appearances, including a position as the executive music supervisor for a Discovery Channel series in 2004. Connor's second album, \"Soliloquy\", and it's regional hit single 'Ready To Fall' was a tight, eleven-song package which one Cleveland-area newspaper simply called 'a masterpiece.' Recorded in studios all over the country, 'Soliloquy' brought Connor's musical vision to life combining creative and thought provoking songwriting with complex vocals. The focus now is on the highly anticipated third album, 'Prizefighter'. Over a year in the making, (most of it written, produced, and engineered by Connor himself), this album features a musical growth unparalleled in his young career. From the smash piano ballad 'Blue Room', to mid-tempo singles such as 'Feeling Again' and 'Falling To Pieces' (featured on The WB's \"Roswell\"), and even the hard rocking seven minute opus of 'Reconcile', this record truly represents this talent at it's best. As a writer, as a producer and most importantly as a performer, Connor is running at full stride. 'Write a song that touches the very core of who someone is inside, and the rest will take care of itself', Connor says. 'It's these common experiences that we as storytellers are called to tell.'\nTo play the media you will need to either update your browser to a recent version or update your version of Flash Player.\nGet ADOBE® FLASH® Player."}

{"text": "Testimonials\n\"Dr. Gordon was incredible! My son broke half of his front tooth off on a Sunday and she saw him right away to cover his root. Then she bonded his tooth Monday morning. She is kind and explains to the patient what she’s going to do so they’re not scared. She also did an exceptional job!\"\n\"We have been going to Dr Gordon and Janik for over 12 years. All 3 of my children have received excellent care there. They have always worked so well to make sure our children are comfortable and feel secure at the appointment.\nThe hygienists always do a great job too. We have always been seen in a timely manner, and the efficient scheduling for all 3 of my children has made it easier on me as the mom. I’d highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking a pediatric dentist!\"\n\"My son has been seeing Dr. Gordon and Dr. Janik since he was 3 years old. He is now 17 and attends a boarding school. He had a concern while at school with one of his teeth and I was able to talk to Dr. Gordon about his tooth. During our visit this week, Dr. Gordon check his tooth confirmed all was good. The services, team, and support are great.\"\n\"Just visited Dr. Gordon’s office for my son’s first dentist visit. Wow! All I can say is they were fantastic. They made him feel so comfortable and they really care about creating a positive experience so kids don’t think of the dentist as something negative. Dr. Megan and her assistant were true sweethearts. The office is so kid-friendly and they are very careful with COVID precautions. Highly recommend this office.\"\n\"The office staff was very efficient especially with the COVID-19 pandemic. I felt my son was in safe hands and in an environment that was safe. The office is very concerned over the safety of their patients, parents and staff.\nMy son had a successful check-up. The hygienist came out to the waiting room and spoke to me regarding a few areas that needs attention and gave advice on how to handle these issues.\nAs always, the staff was very efficient, pleasant and the experience with this dental office is just truly outstanding.\"\n\"Just visited Dr Gordon's office yesterday for my 8 year old daughters first dental visit a long time! I cannot say enough about how amazing Dr Gordon and her staff are! Getting a new patient appointment was quick and easy. All phone and in person communication was wonderful, staff was patient, kind, and empathetic with my daughter who lives with ADHD, ODD, anxiety and a SEVERE phobia of doctors (Dentists in particular). This fear in her stems from a highly traumatic dental procedure as a toddler, another place in which they refused a parent to be in the room with a petrified toddler, and lasty, a doctor rudely and abruptly stood up and stormed out on us when my daughter became too upset by their lack of empathy for her fears! Not only did my daughter sit in the big dental chair, she allowed them to look in her mouth, clean, scrape, brush, count, and floss, she even allowed them to do an x-ray. During the exam, the hygienist held my daughters hand while the dentist examined her and both were providing words of encouragement, praise, and calm detailed explanations my daughter could understand, accept, and comply with without fear! Walking in, it was very clean, sanitary, excellent COVID precautions and extremely welcoming and pleasant! Apologies for a book, but the detail is required to spread the word and ensure Dr Gordon and her staff receive the appropriate recognition of being a 10/10 rating, exceeding all my expectations in all areas that matter most for a pediatric dentist!\"\n\"The entire staff has always been very helpful and kind. They have taken excellent care of my children for many years. Dr. Janik has a very calming presence that goes a long way when children and parents are faced with some stressful moments in the dental chair. Thank you Dr. Gordon and Associates!!\"\n\"Took our son to our regular family dentist, he was beyond stressed and anxious and needed some extensive work. Found Dr Marsha Gordon and Associates in the Lehigh Valley and they are beyond wonderful!!! My son was at ease, they were patient and calm with him and gave him the best treatment and care! Thank you!\"\nIf you’d like to share some kind words and smiles, please leave us a Google review!"}
{"text": "Capitalize on your Customer Experience\nHaving the right customer service team behind your brand is essential to engaging potential and current customers. Oftentimes, a phone call might be the one and only decision as to whether he/she does business with your company. Are the people answering your brand’s incoming calls engaging, patient and supportive? Are they carrying out your company’s policies and brand identity?\nEven if you have an automated phone system in place, you can engage customers with the right voice over volume and inflection, appropriate speaking speed and the right options for your audience. Are they getting frustrated in the process of asking a question? Does it take too long for your customers to receive their answer? If they pass their correct option, is it easy to go back? Make it easy for consumers to contact your business and receive quick responses to questions and concerns.\nYounger generations have proven to shy away from the phone calls and resort to online chat features. Do your website, app and other online platforms allow for quick and easy communication via chat, push notifications and/or email?\nProviding these features is an easy way to allow your business to appear accessible 24/7, approachable and up to date with the latest industry trends.\nEven with responsive websites on mobile devices, many brands are learning to offer a mobile app for smartphone users. Creating an interactive experience that is easy to navigate can lead to more loyal and returning customers. Can they upload a picture to see what a product would look like on? Can customers easily read online reviews of individual products? Is there a way to try before they buy?\nTo encourage more app downloads and increase brand loyalty, you may also consider offering personalized discounts and incentive programs specifically for mobile app users.\nNo matter which channels your brand is present on, one of the recurring questions you must ask yourself is, “Am I representing my brand in the same manner on every platform?” If you offer quality customer service in person, but consumers can’t contact you online, or they receive bad customer service over the phone, your company reputation as a whole will decrease.\nWhile it’s important to meet your audience where they are and be present on the platforms they use, remember this – quality over quantity. If managing 6 online platforms is causing the quality of your customer service to plummet, audit your channels and your efforts and focus in on the most important ones to your customers. Your brand will benefit in the long run when it offers the same brand image and messaging across all of its platforms.\nThrough a consistent omni-channel presence, your brand will be able to create a seamless interaction for all customers on all channels.

{"text": "Apparently Luke Ravenstahl sang a different tune back when he was on City Council:\nWTAE Channel 4 Action News reporter Bob Mayo dug through the archives and found that Ravenstahl attacked former mayor Tom Murphy for missing a Council session in 2004.Hmmm...Looks like we know where Luke got his \"it's political\" excuse from: Tom Murphy!\n[snip]\nThen-City Councilman Ravenstahl called it \"shameful\" when Murphy did not come before Council to talk about Ravenstahl's 2004 bill to lower the parking tax.\n\"These are troubling times for the city of Pittsburgh and for the mayor of the city or somebody to represent his administration not to come to the table on such serious issues is regrettable, shameful,\" Ravenstahl said in 1994.\nMurphy did face off in Council two months later over the money crunch.\nAt that meeting, Ravenstahl cited Murphy's clashes with state lawmakers and asked Murphy if he'd resign.\n\"Basically throw yourself out there and say, 'I saved the city,'\" Ravenstahl said in 1994. \"If they say, 'We're to ask you to step aside.' It's not that I'm asking for that, I'm just wondering.\"\nMurphy told Ravenstahl he'd quit only if people making personality clashes an issue quit too.\n\"That we would stand together and they would sacrifice their political careers with me, to say for the betterment of this region we would all resign,\" Murphy said in 2004. \"If that would happen, I'd be happy to do it.\"\nYou can read all about it at thepittsburghchannel. It was on today's 6:00 PM news. The newcast mentions that Ravnestahl was \"out of town\" when they looked for a comment from him.\nYou'll also want to check out Bob Mayo's blog from today which goes over in loving detail the times that Pittsburgh Mayors have braved public ire at City Council meetings.\nI have to say KUDOS to Mr. Mayo. I did a google search last week to try to find examples of Mayors attending past Council hearings and came up with a big NOTHING, so it looks like Mayo did some REAL digging on this one.\n6 comments:\nFrom the way that Bob Mayo talks on his blog he knew a lot of this info for a long time. So when he did his search he knew, so to say, where the bodies were buried.\nTypical of Mayor Ravenstahl. When there's work to be done for the city of Pittsburgh, he runs off, says \"I'm the Mayor of Pittsburgh,\" plays golf with famous people, and hides out in the woods. The guy is a total poser.\nHe should've been at the meeting. Even Murphy sat through meetings with people that were enraged with him over the stadium deals. He even showed up in the Council chambers...I said it earlier today, but it's worth repeating, Luke Ravenstahl is worse than Murphy. I never thought I'd be able to say that in my life time--let alone less than two years after Murphy left office.\nIf Luke was smart, he would have spoken to his father or grandfather, who have both been in politics, before Luke made such a stupid statement about the past mayors attending critical public meetings.\nTwo typos - Luke said these things in 2004, not 1994. Unless they were part of a high school debate he was in.\nI heart Bob Mayo.\nLuke is a punk,plain and simple.Does Mark DeSantis have a website?"}

{"text": "It’s time for a reunion. What happens when you put three generations of family, plus some innocent newcomers, together in a villa on an island far from home? Will it be more sitcom or reality show? Docudrama or heartwarming special? Tune in to find out.\nThe clincher came when my 67-year-old dad threatened to call and sing “Cat’s in the Cradle” onto my answering machine every day until I agreed to a family reunion.\n“‘When you coming home, son?’\n‘I don’t know when,\nBut we’ll get together then, dad.\nWe’re gonna have a good time then.’”\nNobody needs to hear that. Let’s just say I got the message.\nThese days, deadlines and demands make time run downhill faster than ever. Meanwhile, parents get older, siblings become distant friends and nieces and nephews consider their aunts and uncles simply voices on the phone. Like most everyone I know who moved away, I get to see my family twice in a good year, and one of those times is Christmas, a blurry donnybrook of parties, presents and prior commitments. So there was no denying that a quality-time reunion was in order — even before the sappy song threat was thrown down.\nI got to pick the place and time, so naturally I chose the Caribbean. A cluster of rooms at a cool resort was my first thought, where there would be something for everyone — the guys could go fishing, the gals could head to the spa, the kids would play in the pool — and we’d all be together for sundowners and supper. But on second thought, what about a villa?\nI knew that villa vacations were perfect for romantic escapes. Sequestering with a sweetheart on an exotic isle in a very private home where you’re free to romp around as nature intended always feels deliciously illicit — even those times when it’s not. But a villa for a family vacation? With kids and parents and grandparents? It could work, I figured — as long as I packed a lot more clothes — and it might even have some benefits over a resort.\nOne jumped out: Fortlands Point on Discovery Bay. It looked perfect.\nThat's why I find myself in a cold sweat on the motorcoach taking us from MoBay’s Sangster airport to Discovery Bay. I realize that I’ve set in motion something that’s potentially more social experiment than bonding experience. My family is fairly typical — not the Brady Bunch, but scoring on the civilized side of the Partridge Family/Manson Family curve. On vacations together when my sister, Carol, and I were kids, travel-stress-induced tempers could make our big Plymouth feel more like a circus car stuffed with edgy, sarcastic clowns. Only when we reached adulthood — or as close as we would get — did things become more laid-back. Now, though, we’ve added Carol’s husband, Gary, and their two kids — Meghan, age 5 going on 15, and Brendan, a terror at 2 — and my fiancée Sandi. And since Sandi’s folks had never met my family, I figured this would be the perfect opportunity.Slideshow: Caribbean way of life\nWhat was I thinking, I wonder as I turn around and see Jerry and Ginny sitting in the back, a little wide-eyed, as they’re welcomed by my family with flying bags of Doritos, Cheerios and 20 questions all at once. Our flight was delayed in Miami and no one has had more than three hours of sleep or a meal. I can sense some telltale fraying of, I’m worried, could quickly turn into a bad reality show: Fear Factor meets The Real Gilligan’s Island meets Survivor, except it’s family, so you’re not allowed to vote anyone off the island. We’re stuck together for the duration, all in one house. What if the kids start screaming and never stop? What if I can’t watch my language — Meghan’s already calling me Uncle Potty Mouth. What if Gary throws Brendan up in the air and he hits a ceiling fan? What if our parents don’t get along?\nI need a drink. When the driver stops for gas, I jump out and buy a big bag of beef patties and fill the cooler with Red Stripes. “It’s barely noon,” says my mom.\n“That’s OK,” I say, handing around the frosty bottles and spicy turnovers. “It’s island time.” I consider slipping a binky full of beer to Brendan, but amazingly, he’s already down with the Jamaican vibe. He gives me a look that’s like: “Irie mon, no problem.” Then he wings a juice box at my head.?\nAfter a sunset happy hour on the seaside deck, dinner is served in the formal dining room as a first-night occasion. Once we’re seated around the big mahogany table — an heirloom that’s over 100 years old — Gary and Amos serve five courses — six if you count Brendan’s special order of hot dogs (the chemical-red-hued Jamaica kind). The rest of us have to make do with a main course of fresh snapper in local spices with a homemade sweet-tooth-tantalizing coconut-cream pie for dessert. Pauline, who tells me she learned to cook at her grandmother’s side, is a crowd-pleaser, and there’s not a crumb of leftovers.\nOnce the kids are snug in their beds the grown-ups and the really grown-ups settle around the patio bar. We plug a reggae-filled iPod into the villa’s sound system and turn on the pool’s underwater lights to provide a cool glow below the star-packed sky. Gary the butler makes us a first round of drinks, but then Gary the brother-in-law takes over. Talk and laughter lingers late into the night until, two by two, we head off to bed.\nIn the morning, coffee is ready and waiting before even the earliest risers get downstairs. Breakfast is on a garden patio, where we dig into a pile of bacon and eggs and slices of sweet Julie mango, pineapple and passion fruit. A rumble out past the cove signals the arrival of our charter boat, and the men walk out to the point and hop aboard the 48-footer.\nLines go into the water as soon as we clear the Discovery Bay buoy, and the crew says we could hit barracuda or kingfish close in, dolphin (mahi-mahi), tuna or marlin just a mile or so farther out. The real secret to a successful fishing trip is in the stories: the tales of other trips, other fish — ones that got away and ones that didn’t. As my dad and Jerry alone are stocked with about 100 years’ worth of anecdotes between them — none of which either has ever heard — the talking part is a huge success, even if the actual fishing isn’t.\nThe captain is working at it, though, steering for every stick of bamboo or clump of sargassum he can find in the hopes there’ll be a dolphin or two shadowing beneath it. After several hours of unproductive trolling, we duck into the cabin and break out the sandwiches the villa staff packed. Another secret about fishing is that nothing happens until you stop paying attention. Sitting on the couch with my mouth full, I see first one and then another of the six rods take serious dips as simultaneously we hear the snap of an outrigger clip. I’m out the door, in the fighting chair and tied to an angry 25-pound mahi-mahi before I can even swallow. My dad grabs the other rod, and we fight both fish to the boat. We’d release anything not quite so savory, but these beauties will give the entire family a taste of the freshest possible fish; our mouths are watering just imagining how a pro like Pauline will prepare them.\nThe boat drops us back at the villa around 5. Apparently the spa day was a winner, too: Carol, my mom and Ginny float down the lawn to greet us, massaged to the melting point, serenity in their smiles. Brendan had been Charmed all day, and Meghan shows me her fingernails; one of Carolyn’s crew gave her the whole soaking, buffing and painting treatment — another first. I find Sandi up at the villa, getting the final touches applied to her own manicure, with her toes freshly pampered and her whole being still aglow from a piña colada body scrub performed at the edge of the sea beneath the casuarinas.\nNormality is now totally banished. We take all our meals on one of the patios, never out of sight of the water. Shoes are lost; bathing suits are the uniform of the day. Meghan has been practicing her swimming and is bursting to break out of the pool. We find a dive mask that fits her just right and head down to the beach for her very first snorkel. She climbs on my back like a baby otter and I swim along the rocky walls inside the cove, following a school of tiny bar jacks. When Meghan gets comfortable leaning over my shoulder and putting her face in the water, I fin out to the reef. We start shallow, but soon the water is over 10 feet deep, and still she’s totally at ease — too busy watching fish and the myriad other critters we find to worry. She quizzes me on everything, our heads popping up every minute so I can explain some new wonder. Soon she’s off my back and beside me, hanging onto my arm.\nWhen Sandi swims out to meet us, I hand Meghan off so I can dive down to bring up some curiosities. When we finally haul ourselves out of the water, Mom-Mom is there to meet us. As she wraps Meghan in a towel, she asks her what she saw. I try to remember a couple of things to prompt her, but before I can say a word, Meghan starts rattling. “Oh Mom-Mom, we saw a baby French angelfish, a school of silversides, lots of sea urchins — which you have to be careful of but they won’t hurt you if you don’t bump into them — and trumpetfish, two big ones and then a baby one, and then a blue tang and two butterflyfish and then ... oh, yeah, a scorpionfish that looks like a rock and doesn’t move much but you still shouldn’t try to touch them, and then an ‘enemy’ that looks like a flower and has colors like my fingernails and then Uncle Bob found two brittle stars that look like spiders and I didn’t want to touch them, and then he found a sea cucumber that I didn’t want to touch either, but I held the sea biscuit and then you wouldn’t believe it: A cute little baby fish was living inside the skeleton of a sea urchin! He swam out but we caught him in our hands and made sure he went back inside so no big fish would eat him, and then Uncle Bob caught a pufferfish that puffed up and got all spiky but I didn’t touch him either.”\nI’m stunned. And humbled by the abilities of a sparkling-fresh brain. Meghan and Mom start up toward the villa, but Meghan runs back to me. “Uncle Bob,” she confides, “snorkeling is my favorite thing in the world.”\nAnd that’s enough to make the entire trip worth it. Seeing a little loved one embrace something I enjoy so much is a genuine family moment. As I’m rinsing the sand off the masks and fins, I look around. Sandi’s folks are relaxing out on the point in deck chairs, Carol is stretched out on a lounger watching Brendan and Gary splash in the pool, and Mom is applying yet another layer of sunscreen to Meghan — who’s filling her in on a hundred more details about our snorkel. Dad is wandering around taking pictures of everyone and everything. Sandi squeezes my hand and tells me to meet her in the hammock under the casuarinas. A delicious smell is wafting from the kitchen where the staff is preparing lunch — I bet it’s mahi-mahi.\nI realize that by staying in a villa like this, we have our own private resort, with all the amenities, activities and attractions possible. The family factor? We all eased into a rhythm. In a natural, comfortable ebb and flow, everyone from age 2 to 67 gathers to play and laugh and enjoy meals, and then moves off to relax and renew in a more private manner before coming together again as one big happy family.\nNow I wonder, What the hell — oops — what the heck was I ever worried about?\nBob Friel is the Editor in Chief of Caribbean Travel & Life..\n“ ”"}

Half of the songs on this disc are early (pre-1960) JLH, and it's relatively short. Unless you especially like Hooker's early work, I would find a different collection. I much prefer Hooker's later work in which his deep, growling voice is fully developed. I would instead recommend the wonderful The Best Of John Lee Hooker 1965-1974, which has a lot more music from Hooker's best period.\nBoogie King\nJohn Lee Hooker, \"king of the boogie,\" is one of the most influential guitarists to ever record. He is also one of the most unique, as his rhythmic and dynamic senses are more free than what one may be accustomed to... he also changes chords rarely, if ever, in some songs. Now i myself have complained about 3 chord bands... this is different, this man hypnotizes you with his awesome, entrancing riffs and licks. This collection is probably the finest one disc compilation of this master's work and belongs in any music lover's collection. If you think that all blue sounds the same and all is 12 bars etc etc (any blues aficionado knows much better than to pay any heed to these ridiculously ill-informed stereotypes), John Lee Hooker is a good place to see that the blues is one of the forms most open for free expression and experimentation.\n"}

So how can you satisfy your sweet cravings without ruining your health? These treats will hit the sweet spot with added health benefits.\nWhen you feel like chocolate…\nWhen you feel like chocolate you can have it, just make sure it’s dark. Findings from two studies show dark chocolate consumption reduces stress and inflammation, while improving memory, immunity and mood. Lorna Linda University were behind both studies, which showed that consuming 48 grams of dark chocolate with minimum 70% cacao (which equates to half a block of Lindt chocolate) had the positive effects. It’s the flavonoids found in cacao that are extremely potent antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents, with known mechanisms beneficial for brain and cardiovascular health.\nWhen you feel like ice cream…\nGo bananas. While we would never suggest you give up ice cream entirely, eating a punnet a day isn’t going to do your waistline any favours. A surprisingly healthy alternative to ice cream is frozen banana, and it’s super easy to make.\nJust keep a few peeled bananas in the freezer and when you feel like a creamy sweet treat, all you need to do is put a couple of bananas in the food processor and blend. For a creamier texture you can also add some coconut milk. For added flavour (and more nutrients) can add toppings like nuts or chopped (dark) chocolate. And if that’s not sweet enough for you, dip a whole frozen banana in chocolate. You won’t be disappointed. Bananas are naturally sweet, and are also a good source of potassium and fibre. Research has also shown that they can help to lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cancer and asthma.\nWhen you feel like something rich and decadent…\nReach for peanut butter, or any nut butter. Unfortunately not all nut butters are created equal, so look for one that has just the nuts, and isn’t packed with sugar, vegetable oils and trans fats. Nut butters are high in calories but they are also a good source of protein, healthy fats and some vitamins and minerals like vitamin E. While some people are happy to eat a spoonful from the jar to satisfy sweet cravings, nut butters can also be used to make brownies, smoothies and slices.\nNot sure which brand to buy? We’ve rounded up some of the best peanut butters in New Zealand."}

{"text": "Mark Malloch Brown\n6 June 2006 The United Nations Deputy Secretary-General today called for greater United States engagement with the UN, warning that Washington cannot “go it alone” in approaching diverse problems ranging from the threat of bird flu to the situation in violence-wracked Darfur, Sudan, while the world body needs its host country’s leadership to tackle these pressing challenges.\nIn an address on ‘Power and Superpower’ delivered in New York, Mark Malloch Brown warned that “a moment of truth is coming” since the world’s challenges are growing but the UN’s ability to respond is being weakened without US leadership.\nHe cited the issue of human rights, noting that former US First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt had championed the issue. By contrast, “Today, when the human rights machinery was renewed with the formation of a Human Rights Council to replace the discredited Commission on Human Rights, and the US chose to stay on the sidelines, the loss was everybody’s.” Washington had called a vote on the proposal, and was joined by only three other countries in opposition, with 170 supporting the measure’s passage.\nMr. Malloch Brown praised those US officials who have supported the UN and played leadership roles, but noted that “in recent years, the enormously divisive issue of Iraq and the big stick of financial withholding have come to define an unhappy marriage.”\nWhile the US is constructively engaged with the UN – on issues such as Lebanon, Afghanistan, Syria, Iran and the Middle East, “that is not well known or understood, in part because much of the public discourse that reaches the US heartland has been largely abandoned to its loudest detractors” in the media.\n“Exacerbating matters is the widely held perception, even among many US allies, that the US tends to hold on to maximalist positions when it could be finding middle ground,” he added, citing the proposed renovation of.”\nThe Deputy Secretary-General said that when the US does champion the “right issues like management reform,” Washington provokes more suspicion than support. He recalled how last December, largely at US insistence, instead of a normal two-year budget, Member States approved only six months’ worth of expenditure.\nIn the current climate, 77, the main group of developing countries, on the grounds that this weakens accountability,” Mr. Malloch Brown noted, referring to the “Group of 77” caucus.\nHe cited the prevailing “perception among many otherwise quite moderate countries that anything the US supports must have a secret agenda aimed at either subordinating multilateral processes to Washington’s ends or weakening the institutions, and therefore, put crudely, should be opposed.”\nAnother factor in play is “a real, understandable hostility by the wider membership to the perception that the Security Council, in particular the five permanent members, is seeking a role in areas not formally within its remit, such as management issues or human rights.” In addition, he cited “an equally understandable conviction that those five, veto-wielding permanent members who happen to be the victors in a war fought 60 years ago, cannot be seen as representative of today’s world” even in financial terms.\nThe so-called G-4 of Security Council aspirants – Japan, India, Brazil and Germany – contribute twice as much as the P-4, the four permanent members excluding the US.\n,” the Deputy Secretary-General said. “Security has gone global, and no country can afford to neglect the global institutions needed to manage it.”\nFor the UN, it starts with politicians who will assert that Washington is going to engage with the world to tackle cross-border issues. This, he noted, will require “inside the tent diplomacy at the UN. No more take it or leave it, red-line demands thrown in without debate and engagement.”\nTo illustrate this point, he noted that President Bush wants to do more to respond to the situation in Darfur, and questioned the ability of the US to act on its own. “What can the US do alone in the heart of Africa, in a region the size of France?” he asked, adding: “A place where the government in Khartoum is convinced the US wants to extend the hegemony it is thought to have asserted in Iraq and Afghanistan.”\nThe US, he stressed, needs the UN as a multilateral means to address Sudan’s concerns. “It needs the UN to secure a wide multicultural array of troop and humanitarian partners. It needs the UN to provide the international legitimacy that Iraq has again proved is an indispensable component to success on the ground.”\nThe dependence, he added, is mutual. “The UN needs its first parent, the US, every bit as much if it is to deploy credibly in one of the world’s nastiest neighbourhoods.”"}

{"text": "Steve Mines, Sales Director, Sliders UK, explains how the Ultimate Evolution, could save installers time and money.\nSometimes theory and practice don’t quite always align. For example, bi-fold doors are, in theory straight forward to fit. In reality – they’re often anything but.\nGet things slightly out of line or out of square, pack them incorrectly or fail to toe and heel in glass properly and you can be staring down twin barrels of lost time in installation or call backs.\nWe’re committed to supporting our customers in avoiding both through our rigorous in-house testing procedures, assisted-fit programme and in the products that we supply.\nEach-and-every door that we manufacture goes through a series of recorded operational tests as part of our quality control process. This includes filming of operation in our test rig. If it doesn’t run, it doesn’t leave, it’s as simple as that.\nThe testing in the rig shows that the door does what it’s meant to do – as long as it goes in square, it’s packed correctly, toed and heeled correctly, there shouldn’t be a problem\nIt then goes onto packaging and dispatch, where it’s expertly wrapped and protected, components are checked and double checked, before being loaded onto our own dedicated fleet.\nWe underpin this with on the road national technical support. Our team are on-hand to trouble shoot problems – but we’d much rather avoid them. That’s why we offer an assisted fit programme.\nIf you’re ordering a door from us for the first time, we’ll send out one of our field service engineers to support the installation. Every system has slightly different characteristics – we manufacture bi-folding doors from ALUK, and Eurocell’s Aspect bi-fold, plus the new Duraflex bi-fold – and there are tricks of the trade that apply to each that make installation got that little bit more smoothly.\nRegardless of system, getting the door square is key to a successful installation. ALUK, Duraflex, and the Eurocell Aspect are great doors but they all need to be set square. Our fourth bi-fold door – the Ultimate Evolution– massively simplifies this process.\nWith ultra-slim sightlines plus smooth bottom running system and concealed shoot bolt lock with single point handle, the Ultimate Evolution has been developed to build in increased margin at the retail point of sale..\nBut what sets it apart from other doors is the way in which it simplifies installation, saving time money and call backs, through a really innovative adjustable jamb option.\nBi-fold installation is all about getting the door square – the Ultimate Evolution is a very forgiving and reliable system\nThe fully adjustable jamb, is fitted to both sides of the door, making squaring and setting faster, easily accommodating imperfections in brick work and significantly reducing installation time.\nThis means that doors can be fitted in as little as 45-minutes – a fraction of the time that it would normally take to install a large aluminium bi-fold.\nWe offer the Ultimate Evolution on lead times of two-weeks or less. As a specialist, door manufacture we’re geared up for bi-folds. That means that our quality is high, our lead times are short and because we’re doing the volume, we’re able to offer some of the industry’s most competitive prices.\nThis includes a highly competitive offer on the Ultimate Evolution, which allows installers to build in more margin.\nIt’s a product which has an impressive specification but remains affordable. This gives us greater flexibility as a supplier and allows us to offer our customers additional choice. This flexibility is something which we believe we believe will win them business.\nThe reasons for adding an aluminium bi-fold to your offer are clear. Forecasts for the industry as a whole are mixed but aluminium and bi-fold doors, in particular, are on course for growth.\nThe Window, Door and Conservatory Markets in Housing in Great Britain report by Palmer Market Research, suggest that aluminium is on course to reach a 17-year high by 2020.

Many decades ago, we began to become aware of how air pollution negatively affects health. But what about the air inside your vehicle? Cabin air filters are now coming on most new sedans in Albuquerque. These filters clean the air in the passenger compartment. They can filter particles down to three microns, so that’s good enough to clean out dust, pollen and most pollutants. If you suffer from allergies in Albuquerque, this is very good news. Your car can be a haven during your Albuquerque Albuquerque where there’s a lot of dust, pollen or pollution, you may need to change it more often. You can also ask your service advisor at Jim’s Automotive in Albuquerque. Albuquerque people haven’t heard of them – even people who have cabin air filters in their sedan. Jim’s Automotive service advisors have discovered that many Albuquerque customers who complained about an unpleasant odor in their sedan simply had a dirty cabin air filter."}
{"text": "In the old days of the Web, there were no SEO Professionals, automated systems, or all that high modern technology stuff. A couple of years back, as a matter of fact, the term \"Seo\" did not even exist! Web site owners fought with methods as well as implies to obtain the much-needed hits to their site (never mind if it was not targeted) to hopefully produce the required revenues. Those were the days of IBM (or \"It's Ideal done By hand) as well as Organic Search Engine Optimization.\nThe only distinction between Organic SEO and also the SEO we now know is that Organic SEO is a hands-on process vs. the current automated procedures of web page submission and change that defines \"contemporary\" SEO.

Inbound web links and also their relevance is one more variable that establishes your rankings. The gatherer of this statistical information is just what is called a \"crawler\" or \"spider bot\", which is a program whose feature is to count the variety of times a keyword appears in a web site with a procedure called \"creeping\".\n• Seo\nYou can not have Organic SEO without the Search Engine Optimization part, which stands exactly what Browse Engine Optimization. SEO's primary goal is simple: bring as many site visitors to your web site as possible by putting in influence on the her latest blog search engine to position your website as close to the top of the listing as feasible.\n• Viral Marketing\nThis is a crucial principle to comprehend if you are serious concerning becoming an excellent Organic SEO professional.

{"text": "The coronavirus pandemic has wrought chaos on the U.S. and world economies, but for graduate business education, it has been a blessing in one very important way. Because while Covid-19 upended classroom strategies and devastated campus and co-curricular life — with a still-unknown impact on networking and career services — it has undeniably benefited B-schools by helping them turn around a prolonged slump in MBA applications. After a three-year slide, apps are up at most of the top 25 U.S. B-schools — and at some schools, they’re way up.\nCoronavirus hit in March, shutting down campuses just as most schools were wrapping up their final admissions rounds of the 2019-2020 application cycle. That prompted most top schools to extend their final rounds or add new ones, as well as lower (or scratch) testing requirements — and the result for most was an app windfall: an average increase of 22.6% app volume, and more than 550 apps, at 21 schools, which in turn led to increased class sizes (in some cases record class sizes) at many.\nTwelve schools enjoyed double-digit percentage increases in applications, led by USC’s Marshall School of Business, which saw an amazing 66.4% jump in apps; Rice University Jones Graduate School of Business, close behind at 63.4%; and CMU Tepper School of Business (60.2%), Northwestern University Kellogg School of Management (53.8%), and UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School (43.8%).\n“It’s definitely one for the books,” Danielle Richie, senior associate director of MBA admissions and student recruitment at Kenan-Flagler, said of the 2019-2020 cycle. “We increased the size of the class because we had so many strong, quality candidates that we really wanted to build a diverse class out of the increased pool.”\nA BIG YEAR FOR 21 OF THE 25 TOP U.S. MBA PROGRAMS\nData from schools in Poets&Quants‘ top 25 last year showed year-over-year declines in all but two schools, and declines across the board going back three cycles, to 2016-2017. This year that slide was reversed at all but four schools.\nThe top 10 business schools (as ranked by P&Q) combined saw a drop of about 3,400 MBA applicants, a 5.9% falloff to 53,907 candidates, for the 2017-2018 admissions cycle (versus 57,311 a year earlier). Last year, that number dropped still further, to 50,529, a decline of 3,378 apps, or 6.3%. But in 2019-2020 — aided in most cases by additional weeks of prep time for late applicants — nine of the top 10 schools saw increases, with only Stanford GSB dropping (by 18 applications). Total for the 10 schools — Harvard Business School, Stanford, Chicago Booth School of Business, the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, MIT Sloan School of Management, Columbia Business School, Northwestern Kellogg, Dartmouth College Tuck School of Business, UC-Berkeley Haas School of Business, and Yale School of Management — was 57,197, slightly less than four years ago.\nAmong the M7, the elite of the elite, Northwestern Kellogg’s massive 54% increase outpaced the other six B-schools for the 2019-2020 admissions cycle (see table above). In comparison, MIT Sloan saw a 22% rise, Wharton a 21% jump, Columbia an 18% increase, and Chicago Booth an 11% boost. All five schools reported record apps. Even with apps essentially flat at Harvard and Stanford, which did not extend their admissions rounds, the M7 as a group had its best app season yet, jumping 14.5% from last year and 3.3% from the high point of 2016-2017.\nDeferments — particularly for international students, for whom coronavirus presents additional risks — meant that enrollment increases remain a year away for some schools. But not at Northwestern Kellogg.\n“We saw a surge in demand from impressive applicants and more people chose to come to Kellogg than we expected during this uncertain time,” says Kate Smith, Kellogg’s assistant dean of admissions and financial aid. Smith’s school grew its two-year MBA class by 85, an 18% increase. “We are thrilled to be welcoming a larger class of 559 students this year. This is a tremendous endorsement of our unique strengths: Kellogg thrives on developing empathetic leaders who can navigate periods of disruption precisely like this one.”\nTHE BIG TURNAROUNDS\nThe biggest turnarounds came further down the rankings. At USC Marshall, ranked No. 19 by P&Q, apps jumped to 3,159 from 1,899, after the school added about two months to its final round (succeeded by Marshall’s customary rolling admissions period). At No. 25 Rice University, after extending its round-three deadline by 60 days for international applicants and 75 days for domestic, the Jones School reported a 63% jump in total applications, drawing nearly 400 more apps for a total of 1,021 after reporting 625 in 2018-2019. As a result, Rice Jones enrolled its biggest MBA class in at least 20 years, with 174 students, up 63% from just 107 last year. At Georgetown, ranked 24th, the McDonough School of Business got about a 9% boost in apps last cycle, but already reports a round 1 jump of 40% this fall. At the University of Virginia Darden School of Business, extending round three by 99 days resulted in a wild 364% jump in MBA apps for the round, which ended up giving the school a 37.7% increase overall.\n“I’ve been doing this for about 25 years now and this was certainly the most challenging admissions cycle — for a lot of different reasons,” says Evan Bouffides, director of MBA admissions at Marshall. “It was a lot of late nights and weekend work. It was a long cycle and like many schools we extended our application deadline, which certainly had a lot to do with the number of applications that we got.”\nOne of the biggest turnarounds came at Carnegie Mellon University, where the Tepper School of Business saw a bounce-back that exceeded its previous record for apps in one cycle. CMU Tepper’s received 2,094 apps for the Class of 2022, up more than 60% in a year, and upped its number of admits by more than 30. However, because it granted more than 60 deferments, the school actually will have a much smaller MBA class of around 141, down by nearly 60 from last year.\nBut in the next two years, the students who deferred in 2020 will join the Tepper MBA, says Kelly R. Wilson, executive director of masters admissions.\n“We offered students who couldn’t come to campus the opportunity to attend remotely or defer for 1-2 years,” Wilson tells P&Q. “For those wanting an in-person experience, a deferral was the chosen option. Not surprisingly, most deferrals are international students. That said, 28% of the incoming class is international students. We have recently learned that a number of international candidates have been successful in obtaining their student visa and will be moving to Pittsburgh.”\nSee the next page for a table of the last four years of applications at the top 25 U.S. business schools."}
{"text": "The Silicon Valley of the 16th Century\nIt’s a joke that every Fleming knows: ‘Antwerp is the city and everything else is… parking.’ By this they mean that Antwerp residents like to think that their city is the center of the world. A trait that most residents of capital cities have. Only: Antwerp is not a capital.\nBut still. Antwerp was the center of the world for a while, argues British historian Michael Pye in his new book Antwerp. The glory years.\nMichael Pye doesn’t say it like that, but you do think it when you read his book: Antwerp was the Silicon Valley of the sixteenth century. Anyone young and ambitious wanted to go there. You could make a fortune there. There is freedom of religion. And, wrote Giovanni Zoncha, a cloth seller from Venice who moved to Antwerp at the age of twenty, the girls were ‘wonderfully bold’. “During the meal you sat between two girls who gave you an occasional kiss, and after dinner you sat on the floor, in your girl’s arms,” Pye writes. “You talked about everything, even if you didn’t have a common language, and went for a walk without anyone having to accompany you.”\nWho the novel last year wild woman by Jeroen Olyslaegers read, which also takes place in sixteenth-century Antwerp, is immediately back in the city on the Scheldt. Pye knows how to sketch an atmosphere almost as visually: you smell the smell of beer, hear the hum of the harbor and see the fine tapestries glitter with golden thread.\nThe fall of Antwerp\nMichael Pye is not a novelist, he is a writer. Take, for example, the sentences with which he opens a chapter about the iconoclasm in Antwerp:\n“There were some guys kicking shit in the cathedral (…). They taunted the woman who always asked for alms at the Lady Chapel. She became enraged, she aggressively watered them, the boys harassed her and the boys were rudely disturbed.’\nThe difference between Jeroen Olyslaegers and Michael Pye: the characters of the Brit are real.\nThe further you go back in time, the more political the historiography often becomes. Sources about everyday life are now customary. But Pye doesn’t want to talk too much about ‘economic aspects’ and ‘institutional variables’, because: ‘it’s really about the people behind it: what they know, they talked and what they remember’.\nBut let’s briefly summarize the main points. The heyday of Antwerp begins around 1500 with the arrival of the first Portuguese ships. The city fell under the rule of Charles V. The end of the heyday is arbitrary. You can take 1566 (the Iconoclasm), 1577 (when Antwerp joined the Revolt), from 1585 (when the Spaniards recaptured the city). Pye complicated story in the last year.\nAt that time, there were quite a few celebrities walking around the city and Pye is giving them a face one by one. Thomas Meer for example those are Utopia not without reason started on the Grote Markt, where a sailor told about a remote island kingdom with that name. After all, Antwerp was the place where you could hear stories ‘about the world that had been opened up further’. Antwerp was also a place where you could learn new languages. And so it’s not surprising that you can recognize elements of the city on The Tower of Babel, the famous painting that Pieter Bruegel made.\nInternational bestseller\nChristoffel Plantin, the printer, Abraham Ortelius, the mapmaker, Albrecht Dürer, the painter – the emergence of Antwerp for a shorter time as a base of operations. The poet Anna Bijns, who, especially for a woman at the time, practiced under her own name: also an Antwerper.\nJust outside the city in Borgerhout, Peeter van Coudenberghe borders a special garden with exotic and medicinal plants and herbs. to be dispensatory, a compendium of medicinal plants, became an international bestseller.\nAntwerp was so important in the sixteenth century, thanks to its location on the Scheldt and to the fact that at the same time Bruges was slowly silting up. Antwerp was also able to outflank Bruges because there is more freedom: the guilds had less power and there were fewer regulations that hindered trade. For example, English cloth merchants did not pay tax on goods they imported and they could settle conflicts under English law. Although Antwerp fell under the authority of the (Catholic) Spanish Empire, the city housed wealthy Portuguese Jews fleeing the Inquisition.\nAlso read: The savage Antwerp of the 16th century\nAntwerp act what it wanted. That last sentence does belong to the style of Pye, who also regularly presents the city as a character. He writes about the rise of the city: ‘Antwerp is trying to invent the clear and future.’ And about the destruction during the Iconoclasm: ‘It was as if the city itself was not defending itself.’\nMighty banker\nSometimes you want Pye to explain a little more in his stories about people. For example, in the case of Gaspar Ducci, an Italian banker in Antwerp who was one of the first in history to realize that you could make money with money by keeping a close eye on exchange rates and taking them at the right time. In 1540, Ducci bought money ‘as others in a market bought a certain product’. At one point he controlled all cash in Antwerp, writes Pye. ‘He thought Antwerp that all trade, all life in the city could be brought to a halt by one man.’ Fascinating, you think as a reader, and you actually want to know a lot more about it.\nAntwerp was therefore even the center of the world. But what is the importance of Antwerp for world history in retrospect? Antwerp may not have been the site of London, a role often attributed to Amsterdam or to a later period in history. But it was the city where money became more than coins, argues Pye, due to the lively trade in bills of exchange. Printed price lists of goods appeared for the first time, a precursor to the financial pages of newspapers. Michael Pye quotes from a wonderful letter from the banker Erasmus Schetz who tries to explain the new concept of money to a ‘very dear friend’, the philosopher of Desiderius Erasmus from Rotterdam. “Schetz had to be able to ‘use the difference between the money markets to their own advantage and your disadvantage’.” The great philosopher had a hard time grasping it all. Schetz sighed, “I’d rather you understood this material better than you apparently do.”\nAfter Antwerp fell back into Spanish hands, the city had to be rebuilt. And worse than that: a large part of the population moved north. Pye decision: ‘What happened in Antwerp, supported by the change of the world and how we think about it. But it was only a city, a place with walls, that could rise with time and become clear again. The city could be eroded and it was.’\nA version of this article also in NRC Handelsblad of 3 September 2021\nA version of this article also in NRC in the morning of September 3, 2021"}

The house is in a fabulous location just a few streets away from Royal Crescent (the most famous street in Bath) and its a flat walk into Bath city centre (about 25 minutes). Yet it is tucked away at the end of a cul de sac in a quiet residential road and is very peaceful. There is a bus stop at the end of the road and buses go into town every few minutes during the day. There is a supermarket at the end of the road too and nice pubs only a few minutes walk away.\nYou can park here for free with no problems.\nYou can use the kitchen, (although I am currently working from home during the day from the lounge and need privacy during working hours) and we use the lounge in the evenings to watch TV, (You have a tv in your room).

The spare room is a double attic room and has everything you would need. It has a double bed (although you can only get in one side as the other side touches the wall), cabinet, wardrobe outside and shelves. It has a flat screen tv on the wall and a small fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. On the plus side, the room is very private (as there is no-one else on that floor). On the negative side, the stairs up to the attic are quite narrow and are smaller than a normal stairs, (they are a little ladder like), so it's not good for anyone with mobility problems and it's hard to get heavy luggage up there. It has a double bed and I can also add a mattress on the floor for a child if needed, but this would take up most of the floor space.

{"text": "Potstown Farm just outside Lockerbie has witnessed some big changes in recent years, with the introduction of four new Lely robot milkers; a new housing shed; increased herd numbers and most excitingly, four new little members to the family.\nAdmittedly, these alterations have not only improved the overall management of the now 230-cow herd, but also updated the working environment for the Owen family. Just as importantly, cow comfort and animal welfare has taken another step forward, ensuring the herd has once again been named as one of the top 20 dairy herds in Scotland.\nFather and son team Tom and Gareth Owen work full time on this 381-acre unit which has seen Holstein herd numbers increase by almost 50%, over the past six years, with assistance of dairy-man, Kenny Dunbar and Gareth’s brother David Owen, who works in his spare time alongside his own farm consultancy business, Owen Farm Services.\nGareth said: “Herd expansion came as a result of being offered the next-door farm for sale, we had been looking at ways of expanding on the original acreage of Potstown, but the extra land made this far more straightforward and viable.”\nThe biggest increase, alongside the small number of Jersey cross females came with the purchase of 67 Holsteins from Germany, which were selected for their excellent health status and have since climatized well. The plan now however is to concentrate more on breeding home-bred replacement females to supplement the herd, by around 35 each year.\nIt is nevertheless the new housing shed that has made the biggest difference. This Robinson’s 300ft x 140ft building saw construction begin in September 2014, and was fully functional by the following June to accommodate all 240 cows with new 50mm double foam mattresses and cubicles from Easyfix and supplied by James Smith Fencing.\nPrior to the new dairy housing unit, the Owens noticed cows picking up injuries in their existing steel cubicles like abrasions on their back and lameness from the hard flooring. The new facilities have seen a substantial boost to livestock welfare and with the animals now being kept inside throughout the year the Owens have been careful to keep on top of preventative hoof trimming. Hoof trimmer Gareth Lacey, comes out once a month to check for any problems and trims around 25 cow’s hooves each time.\nAnimal welfare has also been improved by the introduction of four new Lely robots between 2012 and 2015, supplied and serviced by the Lely Centre in Longtown. The robots allow the cattle to roam freely in to the milking stalls when they wish with average milking per cow of three times a day with the highest yielders producing milk five times. Gareth: “Robots are far kinder to high yielding cows in my opinion as it lets them get milked as and when they want and takes pressure off their udders, true freedom for cows to choose when they are milked.”\nThe brushes in the machine clean the individual teats, stimulating milk flow and maintaining good hygiene. The quarters are individually milked to avoid over milking and the cleanliness of the operation has also led to a reduction in mastitis rates.\nThe machines monitor the weight of milk from individual cows and ration feed accordingly to milk production, with the highest yielders fed around 20kg of cake over a 24-hour period. The robots clean themselves thoroughly three times a day and as Gareth jokes “they don’t call in sick” allowing the Owens to spend more time with their new family; including Gareth and Annette’s two children, two-year-old Chloe and five-week-old Charlie, the newest addition to the Owen family, as well as their twin cousins, three-year old’s Eilidh and Calum.\nAs well as improved animal health, the robots have brought significant economic benefits to the business through increased milk production. In 2012 with the first two Lely robots in the old shed, milk went up to 11500kg compared with 10500kg twice a day milking in the parlour. The highest yielders are now producing around 15000kg.\nThe Owen family are currently producing 6500L daily from 200 cows at 4.2% Butterfat and 3.20% protein. When the new shed was installed in 2015 and the family began to increase the herd size with the new space available, there was an initial drop in milk per cow as they were running at 60% heifers for the first year in the new shed.\nNow however, with a 200+ strong cow herd, they are not only reaping the rewards of the robots but also the new housing unit boasting improved cow comfort. The cattle adapted well to their new surroundings too – a relief for the Owens who said there were no culls post their introduction, with the robots, they believe, delivering around a 10% increase in milk yields.\nDiet is also crucial with silage provided all year round alongside straw pellets. As well as the four Lely robots in the shed there are six out of parlour feeders that the higher yielder cows have access to, to receive their full cake allocation. The cattle are regularly checked by herd vet Callum Cameron from Ark Vet centre, Lockerbie, who comes out every two weeks to carry out pregnancy diagnoses and check on the development of fresh cows.\nOne thing is for sure, livestock welfare is of paramount importance to the Owens and they admitted that overall herd health has been one of the most notable improvements they have witnessed with the new shed and robots.\nFertility rates have slipped slightly in the past year in the cows which was expected since the introduction of sexed semen in 2016. Conception rates in the heifers have been 50%+ to sexed semen for several years now. Overall Sexed semen has been successful with cows producing one bull calf in 11 calves. There is a high demand for the Angus and British Blue cross calves which are kept in the old shed and sold between three and eight weeks.\nThe Owens will look to fill the shed with around 20/30 more cows in the future and will continue to supply milk to Yew Tree Dairy who are based in Skelmersdale.\nOverall, the improvements brought by the new robots, shed and cattle bedding has allowed for greater individual attention on the health of the cattle, increased milk yields and has been more suited to the Owens family."}

{"text": ".2 Pinar del Río mayo.-ago. 2021 Epub 10-Ago-2021\nOriginal article\nAssimilation of statistical techniques: a necessity in the formation of the Physical Culture and Sports professional\n1Universidad de Ciencias de la Cultura Física y el Deporte \"Manuel Fajardo\". La Habana, Cuba.\n2Centro de Estudios para el Perfeccionamiento de la Educación Superior (CEPES) de la Universidad de la Habana. La Habana, Cuba.\nMastering statistical techniques has many benefits by virtue of training competent professionals. In the branch of Physical Culture and Sports, it acquires greater significance due to its applicability in the four graduation profiles, hence the importance of assimilation of this science in the training process of its professionals. The objective of this study was to determine the state of the assimilation of statistical techniques in the training of Physical Culture and Sports professionals in Cuba. The research required the use of various methods, among which they should be mentioned: document review, surveys, a pedagogical test and methodological triangulation. Likewise, as part of the statistical methods, the empirical frequency distribution tables were used. All of them made it possible to determine the level of the assimilation of statistical techniques in the training of these professionals, as well as the knowledge of teachers about learning strategies, as a crucial result of the research. With the identification of the most influential elements in this problem, the need and importance of implementing actions in the scientific, teaching and methodological work system to improve the levels of assimilation of this science is confirmed.\nKeywords: Statistical techniques; Levels of assimilation; Learning strategies.\nINTRODUCTION\nThe continuous evolution of social processes and the growing technological progress demand systematic improvement in the multiple areas of knowledge. For this reason, the formation of future professionals, who are called to play an active role in the acquisition of new knowledge through research processes, acquires great relevance.\nThe National Institute of Sports, Physical Education and Recreation (Inder in Spanish) and with it, the Manuel Fajardo University of Physical Culture and Sports Sciences (UCCFD) of Cuba, as an entity that forms its human resources, are immersed in the improvement of its processes. Among those to be mentioned are: the preparation of high-performance athletes, the formation of competent professionals, the work in the community, the use of physical exercise as a rehabilitating agent for different diseases, the school as a basic link that contributes to the development of a healthy body and mind from the Physical Education as a leading subject.\nThe effectiveness of this improvement, which becomes transformations, is related to the collection of a set of data resulting from the planned variables and measurements. These, in turn, describe the real situation of the object of study through the implementation of statistical techniques as research instruments. The fact of analyzing the results obtained, with the application of these techniques, is of vital importance for future professionals of Physical Culture and Sport, due to their influence on decision-making on the social and sports processes in which they develop.\nFor such reasons, it is agreed with Pérez, Crespo and López (2018) when they state that:\n\"Currently in many countries, including Cuba, research on the teaching of Statistics is increasing, aimed at solving in some way the contradiction that is given, in that on the one hand the applicability of Statistics increases, and on the other hand the preparation in this that is received through higher studies is not enough, since in most of the university careers topics ranging from Descriptive Statistics to Inferential Statistics are taught, but no work is done to ensure that students obtain the best data sets, the most information from the data and the best interpretation of the results through the use of some statistical software for information processing. (p. 341)\"\nThe confrontations in the pedagogical field on the learning of Statistics are directed to a critical analysis and transformations, where the psychological aspects have a determining influence on the final result obtained, on the way in which the learning processes can be developed and thus the assimilation of the contents.\nIn this sense, Piaget (as cited in Santamaría 2004) states that mental assimilation consists of the incorporation of objects into behavioral schemes, schemes that are nothing more than the framework of actions that man can actively reproduce in reality. For his part, Birchenall (as cited in Raynaudo & Peralta, 2017) refers that assimilation is the phenomenon of making sense of new phenomena from previous conceptualizations. When previous schemes are insufficient to interpret reality, a cognitive conflict is generated that triggers a replacement or reorganization of previous concepts, which is called accommodation.\nThe future professional puts them into practice, when he/she is able to apply in real situations, the knowledge of statistical techniques assimilated to the dissimilar projections that his/her professional development propitiates in the four graduate profiles (Prophylactic and Therapeutic Physical Culture, Recreation, Physical Education and Sport). With a first action directed to the mental plane, in the conformation of the already mentioned schemes. The second is directed to the practical application of the conceived scheme.\nSome authors state that it is the teacher who plays a fundamental role in the activation of the mechanism of assimilation of the contents. Sánchez, García, Steffens and Hernández (2019) refer that teachers have a variety of tools that allow them to interact with students to encourage motivation, participation and interest in the subject, all with the purpose of transmitting knowledge. In addition, they are responsible for modeling the different learning activities with the objective that the student goes through the different \"levels of assimilation: reproductive, productive and creative\" Álvarez de Zayas, 1999, p. 78).\nAchieving an efficient process of assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of Physical Culture and Sport professionals in Cuba, leads to think about learning strategies, as a way to achieve a plan designed with the objective of reaching a certain goal. Esteban and Zapata (as cited in Maldonado et al., 2019) assure that a strategy implies an intentional plan that results in learning.\nThere are several classifications on learning strategies, authors such as Castellanos, Reinoso and García (2001) and Pérez and Beltrán (2014) agree in classifying them into cognitive, metacognitive and learning support strategies. These, in turn, are associated with the will, capacity and autonomy that the student has. Reasons why the authors assume these classifications, they consider them representative in the training process of Physical Culture and Sport professionals, and singularly, in the assimilation of statistical techniques.\nHence, the interest of this study is aimed at teachers to identify the actions that should be strengthened for students to use different types of learning strategies, which enhance self-learning and assimilation of statistical techniques from their pre-professional needs. Therefore, the objective of this work is to determine the state of assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of the Physical Culture and Sport professional in Cuba.\nMATERIALS AND METHODS\nThe study has been developed based on the descriptive exploratory research paradigm, whose main objective is to explore and solve problems of the social reality from the contribution of practical results. As a complement to the study, participatory action research is assumed, since it is described on the reality and daily life of the events, which implies understanding and exposing the action developed to transform it.\nThe instruments chosen for the collection of information were a questionnaire and a pedagogical test addressed to the students, as well as a questionnaire to be answered by the teachers. The instruments were adjusted to the context of the study, with the purpose of determining the real state of assimilation of statistical techniques by the students and how much the teacher influences this process.\nFor the selection of the instruments, the following variable was taken into account: the assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of the professional in Physical Culture, which is defined as the mechanism that allows the student to incorporate, relate, organize, accommodate, reproduce and apply a system of statistical knowledge on the practice of the actions he/she carries out in his/her academic-social environment and which favors his/her professional.\nFor the parameterization of the dimensions and indicators identified, it was used the assessment rating scale proposed and adjusted to the context of the study, which comprises three levels: low (level 1), medium (level 2) and high (level 3). The first level represents undesired results; the second level, results far from desired, and the third level, desired results.\nTo determine the state of assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of the Physical Culture and Sport professional, the following methods were used: review of documents; surveys and a pedagogical test to students, as well as a survey to teachers. Methodological triangulation was used, with the intention of crosschecking different data sources to reach general conclusions.\nLikewise, the statistical processing of the data obtained was carried out with the use of the statistical method empirical distributions of frequencies arranged in tables.\nThe study was carried out at the Manuel Fajardo University of Physical Culture and Sport Sciences. In the institution, three types of courses are developed: the regular daytime course, the course by meetings for workers and the course by meetings for athletes; the research was specifically focused on the regular daytime course with students taking Syllabus E, which began to be applied as a result of the reforms developed by the Ministry of Higher Education in the country. These reforms were aimed at reducing undergraduate formation times, increasing competitiveness and broadening the profile of graduates, in addition to providing more options for university access.\nThe student population consisted of third and fourth year students of the regular daytime course, from the different municipalities of The Capital of the country, aged between 21 and 25 years old. It is at these levels where the results of greater veracity can be obtained, since the students are better prepared and immediately need the application of statistical techniques for the realization of their scientific research work. At this stage, it is possible to identify the weaknesses in their cognitive structures, and the quality of the classes received in the subject where the topics of Statistics (Informatics and Data Analysis) are taught.\nThe sampling used is of the stratified probabilistic type. The strata declared were previously conformed, since the third and fourth year of the course were assumed. To determine the sample size in each stratum, the sample size corresponding to the selected population was initially calculated. The following formula is used to calculate the sample size of a finite population (n) (Equation 1).\nThe sample was determined by 107 students within the totality of the population under study. The determination of the sample size for each stratum was based on the author's own criteria. The following formula was used for this purpose (Equation 2).\nBased on the above procedure, 61 and 46 third and fourth year students, respectively, were identified as part of the study. Subsequently, a simple random sampling was applied within each stratum to determine the students of each year that would make up the sample.\nThe population of teachers selected for the research was determined by the 11 teachers who teach Computer Science and Data Analysis in one or the other semester. For the sample, the criterion of selecting only those teachers who systematically taught the regular daytime course, which had 80 class hours assigned to the subject where the topics of this science are taught, was followed. The sample consisted of seven teachers, representing 63.6 % of the total number of teachers.\nRESULTS AND DISCUSSION\nIn order to study the variable under study and interpret the significance of its presence in the documents that regulate the formation of professionals in Physical Culture and Sports, the following documents were examined with their corresponding units of analysis:\nSyllabus E.\nProgram of the discipline Methods of Analysis and Research in Physical Culture.\nProgram of the subject Informatics and Data Analysis.\nScientific research works defended in the department of Basic Sciences at the UCCFD Manuel Fajardo.\nSyllabus E responds to the broad profile formation model, based on a basic formation that provides the professional with tools to face the main problems that arise, and ensures greater employability of the graduate in his or her different spheres of action. In correspondence with the social task, the modes of action have an eminently pedagogical character, and are put into practice through professional skills that respond to: to know, to know how to do and to know how to be of the professional in Physical Culture and Sports.\nLikewise, the basic professional skills reflect the need to use research methods and techniques to identify, define and solve professional problems; however, the specific professional skills do not specify the use, during diagnosis, of statistical techniques for the planning, control and evaluation of physical activity. Similarly, the functions of these professionals are stated, where it is not reflected that to: \"evaluate the processes of Physical Culture with objectivity and scientific level...\" (Aguilar et al., 2016, p.9), statistical techniques should be used, supported by the reliability and validity of the instruments used to assess their results.\nThe discipline Methods of Analysis and Research in Physical Culture groups together the subjects of Research Methodology, Computer Science and Data Analysis and Basic Mathematics. Two of which have a direct implication in the research processes. In the general objectives of the discipline itself, reference is made to the use of Data Analysis and ICT resources. From this approach, it is inferred that it declares to apply statistical techniques in the professional activity, although it is not explicitly expressed. In the development of the program, there are elements that demonstrate the identification and application of these techniques.\nIn the program of the subject Informatics and Data Analysis, a system of skills is declared in correspondence with each subject. They contribute to the application of statistical techniques. As a distinctive element, there is no evidence in the skills to be developed of self-management of knowledge or self-learning, which was stated in the general objective of the subject and is a basic principle of the current syllabus.\nIn the review made to 12 diploma works and 27 course works defended in the department between the years 2018 and 2020, randomly selected; it was found the insufficient application of statistical techniques, it was also specified errors that attempt against the reliability of the proposals made. Of the 39 research works reviewed, 50 % used measures of central tendency circling mean, mode and median. Four of these works applied a second technique that corroborated the veracity of their proposals.\nIn none of the works were the tenths or hypothesis tests applied, which are of great help, in some cases, to measure the significance levels of the measurements made, especially in diploma works. It should be noted that only one student used correlation, a very representative technique within its spheres of action, but which is still an association statistician of descriptive statistics. In 13 of the papers, empirical frequency distribution tables were applied to describe the results, although not with all their elements. In one of the papers, no statistical technique was applied, only a simple percentage calculation.\nResults by dimensions of the instruments applied\nFor the analysis of the results, reference was made to the relationship among the instruments applied, objectives, characteristics and indicators that are evaluated and the relationship of the indicators of each dimension with the items of each instrument. This allowed verifying that the assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of the Physical Culture and Sports professional has affectations in its three dimensions: reproductive assimilation, productive assimilation and creative assimilation, which are manifested in level one (Low) with undesired results.\nSurveys to students\nOne hundred seven students of third and fourth years of the regular daytime course were surveyed, who showed impairments in the three dimensions. Among the most affected indicators is indicator 3.2 referring to recognizing their mastery of the application of statistical techniques, located at level one (B) with 35.5 % (38). This leads to the fact that indicator 3.3 concerning cognitive, metacognitive and support strategies is shown at level one (B) with 38.8 % (41), due to the close relationship established between knowing what they know about the subject and being able to deploy strategies to assimilate it.\nAt level one (B), with values below 50 %, is the indicator knowledge of the basic concepts of statistics with 44.4 % (48), in general they do not master the basic elements of this science, nor do they recognize the techniques most used in their fields of action. Likewise, the indicator cognitive and support strategies is shown with 40.1 % (43), which demonstrates the little knowledge that students have of the subject in question and their low possibilities of deploying actions to learn it.\nIn this sense, there is an indicator that is of vital importance, framed in level two (M) with The 66.3 % (71) referring to the need to use statistical techniques, which shows the recognition of the importance that these acquire in the formation process, in correspondence with the need for their application.\nPedagogical test\nIn the pedagogical test applied to the 107 students, it is reflected that the future professionals of Physical Culture and Sport have low mastery of these topics, due to the importance of these results (Table 1).\nTable 1. - Results of the indicators in the pedagogical test\nNote: The table shows the absolute and relative percentage frequencies obtained with the application of the pedagogical test, according to the indicator to which the question refers and the certainty of the answer given.\nFor the evaluation of the indicators, in correspondence with the scale assumed, correct answers were taken into account for high (A), regular answers for medium (M) and incorrect or unanswered answers for low (B).\nAll indicators show notable difficulties with values below 15 %, which places them in level one (B), in close relation to the results of the surveys applied to them. Only 9.3 % (10) of the students have positive results in the indicator knowledge of the basic concepts of Statistics, which reaffirms the difficulty they show in the resolution of this subject.\nOne of the most representative results, in the enunciated range, is shown by the indicator support strategies with 13 % (14), since these students were the ones who created links for the solution of the exercises, with expressions that were given to them in the formulation of the question itself. The indicator identification of applicable techniques according to the context being studied is distinguished with a value of 0, none of the students was able to identify any technique applicable to a given situation according to the study variable. Distinctive element that demonstrates the insufficient assimilation of statistical techniques, during the development of the teaching-learning process of the subject.\nSurvey to teachers\nThe survey was applied to the seven teachers who systematically teach Computer Science and Data Analysis classes in the regular daytime course. The survey measured the three indicators referring to the types of learning strategies, with the intention of knowing how they favored their implementation.\nIn the case of indicator 1.3 learning support strategies, 85.7 % (6) of the teachers are in level three (A), 14.2 % (1) are in level two (M) and no frequency is found in level one. This allows placing the indicator in level three (A) and demonstrates that the majority of teachers favor the use of this type of strategy.\nIndicator 2.3 cognitive and supportive strategies, with 71.4 % (5) at level three (A), 28.6 % (2) of the respondents at level two (M) and none at level one (B). Therefore, the indicator is evaluated at level two (M). With such results, it is inferred that a high percentage of the professors contribute to the application, on the part of the students, of their knowledge to practical situations related to their graduate profiles, giving equal importance to their motivations, feelings and ways to solve them.\nIn indicator 3.3 cognitive, metacognitive and support strategies, 57.1 % (4) of the teachers are at level three (A), 28.6 % (2) at level two (M) and 14.2 % (1) at level one (B), which places the indicator at level one (B) by a few tenths, since the change of level is made on 58 % of the respondents according to the scale.\nThe above elements place the three dimensions at level one (B) (Table 2).\nTable 2. - Results of the variable assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of the Physical Culture profesional\nThe analysis of these results, together with the parameterization established to evaluate the behavior of each dimension, allow to appreciate that dimension 1 (Reproductive assimilation level), dimension 2 (Productive assimilation level) and dimension 3 (Creative assimilation level) are at level one (low), with 90 % of the frequencies calculated in the first two dimensions and 100 % of the frequencies calculated in the third dimension, at level one (low).\nFrom these results together with the parameterization established in the process to evaluate the behavior of the variable: the assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of the Physical Culture professional, allow determining that this is at level one (B), with undesired results. The 93.3 % of the calculated frequencies demonstrate this.\nTriangulation of the results obtained with the application of the instruments\nFor the triangulation, the procedure of calculating the indexes of the indicators in each of the instruments applied was used, based on the results shown. In this way, the index that describes the behavior of the dimensions and the variable under study is known. For Cerezal and Herrera (2010) and reaffirmed by Collazo (2016) the \"index\" is the value that integrates the data of the different items that make up the same indicator. The index is also used to obtain the value of a dimension from the indicators that comprise it, or the value of the variable, which results from the integration of the values or indices of its dimensions.\nThe general index of each indicator, of each dimension, as well as that of the variable, was calculated as established by Cerezal and Herrera (2010), based on the scales pre-established in the procedure and in the instruments applied. To analyze the results, the values of each of the levels established in the parameterization of the variable were used, and the following scale was assumed to categorize the indexes of each indicator by instrument:\nIndex ≤ 1 level 1 (B); index ≤ 2 level 2 (M); index ≤ 3 level 3 (A).\nWith these values, the weighted mean is calculated, taking as a weighting criterion the weight and importance of the opinion of each subject interviewed or observed (Cerezal and Herrera, 2010). Thus, the following weighting criterion is assumed:\nWeighting criterion (3) for the indices obtained through the student survey.\nWeighting criterion (2) for the indices obtained through the pedagogical test.\nWeighting criterion (1) for the indices obtained through the teacher survey.\nBased on the weighting criteria, the indexes for each indicator, each dimension and the variable were calculated as follows:\nCaption\nCalculation of the general index for each indicator\nGI (1.1) = (Ee (3) +Pp (2)) /5 = (0,57(3) + 0,23(2)) /5 = (1,71 + 0,46) /5 = 2,17 /5= 0,43.\nGI (1.2) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2)) /5= (0,63(3) + 0,08(2)) /5= (1,89+ 0,16) = 2,05 /5= 0,41.\nGI (1.3) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2) +Ep (1)) /6= (0,61 (3) + 0,21 (2) + 0,92 (1)) /6 = (1,83+0,42+0,92) /6= 3,17 /6 = 0,53.\nGI (2.1) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2)) /5= (0,75(3) + 0,08 (2)) /5 = (2,25 +0,16) /5 = 2,41/5= 0,48.\nIG (2.2) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2)) /5= (0,71(3) + 0,04(2)) /5 = (2,13 + 0,08) /5 = 2,21 /5= 0,44.\nIG (2.3) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2) + Ep (1)) /6 = (0,57(3) + 0,18(2) + 0,78 (1)) /6 = (1,71 + 0,36+ 0,78) /6 = 2,85/6 = 0,47.\nGI (3.1) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2)) /5 = (0,70(3) + 0,25(2)) /5= (2,10 +0,50) /5= 2,60 /5= 0,52.\nGI (3.2) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2)) /5= (0,54(3) + 0,06 (2)) /5= (1,62 + 0,12) / 5= 1,74/5= 0,35.\nGI (3.3) = (Ee (3) + Pp (2) + Ep (1)) /6= (0,61 (3) + 0,06 (2) + 0,71 (1)) /6= (1,83+ 0,12+ 0,71) /6 = 2,63 /6= 0,44.\nCalculation of the index for each dimension\nGI (D.1) = ((2) IG (1.1) + (2) IG (1.2) + (2) IG (1.3)) /6= (0,43(2) + 0,41(2) + 0,53(2)) / 6 = (0,86 + 0,82+ 1,06) /6= 2,74 /6= 0,46.\nGI (D.2) = ((2) IG (2.1) + (2) IG (2.2) + (2) IG (2.3)) /6= (0,48(2) + 0,44(2) + 0,47 (2)) /6= (0,96 + 0,88 + 0,94) /6= 2,78/6= 0,46.\nGI (D.3) = ((3) IG (3.1) + (3) IG (3.2) + (3) IG (3.3)) /9= (0,52 (3) + 0,35 (3) + 0,44(3)) /9= (1,56 + 0,70+ 1,32) /9= 3,58 /9= 0,40.\nCalculation of the index for each variable\nGI (v) = (IG (D.1) (2) + IG (D.2) (2) +IG (D.3) (3)) /7= (0,46 (2) + 0,46 (2) + 0,40 (3)) / 7= (0,92 +0,92 +1,20) / 7 = 3,04 /7= 0,43.\nFrom the results obtained from the calculation of the general indexes of the indicators, it is possible to appreciate the effects they have, with resulting values below one, which correspond to level one (Low). Indicator 3.2 is the most affected with an index of 0.35, which reaffirms what was stated in the previous section. According to the results shown, the general index of each dimension oscillates between 0.40-0.46, which places them at level one (Low), as does the general index of the variable.\nFrom the analysis of the results expressed in the previous paragraphs, the following are identified as the main deficiencies of the variable under study in the UCCFD \"Manuel Fajardo\", as described below:\nThere are difficulties in the treatment provided to the subject to establish the motivations towards it, which conditions the student's willingness to assimilate it.\nThere is insufficient identification, application and evaluation of some statistical techniques in correspondence with the variables to be researched from the exercise of the profession for the realization of the research work from the different disciplines of the career.\nThere is no evidence of an adequate mastery of the professors on the learning strategies, nor of their potentialities to contribute to a reflective and self-regulated learning.\nThe development of learning strategies by students is not shown in a coherent and adequate manner.\nThe applied procedure allowed concluding that the assimilation of statistical techniques in the formation of the Physical Culture and Sports professional is at a low level (undesired) and with it its applicability in the different fields of action. With the identification of the most influential elements in this problem, it is intended that teachers deploy a system of scientific, teaching and methodological work to improve the levels of assimilation of this science by students in formation.\nIn this sense, we agree with Cañizares, Espinosa, Guillen, Ramírez, Castillo and Herrera (2019) when they state that:\n“The quality education of the generations of each era brings with it the guarantee of a successful future, (...) all children, young people and adults in their condition as human beings have the right to benefit from an education that satisfies their basic learning needs in the noblest and fullest meaning of the term, which includes learning to assimilate knowledge, to do, to live with others and to be\". (p.25)\nIn this sense, it is advisable to carry out an analysis of the documentation that regulates the teaching of the subject, as well as the program of the discipline and the basic and specific general skills to be developed, as far as this content is concerned. The study allowed the researchers to reaffirm the importance of the contents addressed for the development of future professionals of Physical Culture and Sport, as well as the involvement of teachers in the development of the potentialities for the self-learning of the elements of this science by the students.\nREFERENCIAS BIBLIOGRÁFICAS\nAguilar, E.

{"text": "BNA Securities Regulation and Law Reports relates that:\nSean David Morton, a self-described “natural psychic, trained Remote Viewer, [and ] intuitive consultant,” was charged March 4 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York over his alleged role in a multi-million dollar offering fraud in which he touted his psychic ability to predict stock market movements (SEC v. Morton, S.D.N.Y., Civil Action No. 10-CV-1720, 3/4/10).\nIn a release that day, the Securities and Exchange Commission said that beginning in 2006, Morton solicited investors in companies he and his wife controlled—the entity defendants—by claiming he would use his “psychic expertise to provide investment guidance to his investing team.”\nIn order for statements to be actionable as securities fraud, they must be material. Facts are material if there is a substantial likelihood the reasonable investor would consider them to be important in making decisions about investments. Granted, the SEC complaint identifies a number of statements that purport to be factual. E.g., \"'I have called ALL the highs and lows ofthe market, giving EXACT DATES for rises and·· crashes over the last 14 years.' (emphasis in original.\"\nBut shouldn't context matter? Consider, by way of analogy, the bespeaks caution doctrine. The doctrine, in its simplest form, says that statements are to be read in context. In practice, courts posit that corporate statements alleged by plaintiffs to be materially misleading must be read in the context of relevant cautionary statements the company has made elsewhere. Take a statement by a CEO saying something like, “I am confident that our earnings this year are going to be much better than those in the past.” Let us say that the facts suggest that the company was doing badly at the time the CEO made the statement, or at least not showing any signs of outdoing its past performances. A court using the bespeaks caution doctrine might point to other language in the prospectus and registration statement along the lines of “this company exists in a volatile marketplace and there are no guarantees that our stock price will consistently increase” and say that, in the context of the warning, the CEOs statement is immaterial as a matter of law.\nHere, the relevant other language is not cautionary in the traditional sense. If Morton in fact was telling investors that he was using \"his 'psychic expertise to provide investment guidance to his investing team,'\" shouldn't that have alerted a reasonable investor to take any other statements made by Morton with more than just a grain of salt? A reasonable investor presumably does not make decisions using a Magic 8 ball. Yet, one of Morton's investment vehicles was named \"Magic Eight Ball Distributing.\"\nThe SEC complaint claims that we can infer materiality from the fact that some investors invested with Morton. But this is bootstrapping, at best. The mere fact that some investors are idiots does not tell us anything about what the proverbial reasonable investor would have done in these circumstances. After all, as PT Barnum put it, there's a sucker born every minute. See See Hillson Partners L.P. v. Adage, Inc., 42 F.3d 204, 213 (4th Cir.1994)(courts need not ascribe “childlike simplicity” to reasonable investor, but should ask whether investors would have considered information significant)."}

{"text": "Mission Board\nThe Mission Board, known as the Bulletin Board before update 2.1, is where players can accept available mission contracts in star systems of the galaxy. It is accessed via the Station Services interface.\nOverviewEdit\nA variety of missions are offered by Faction Representatives (NPCs), of which it shows images of, their faction name, their superpower allegiance, your reputation with that faction and the number of mission contracts they currently offer. The faction status details show government type, their current influence in the system and any states they're in.[1]\nWhen selecting a mission it will show more details such as mission objectives, potential hazards and risks, as well as full reward details. Missions that require planet surface activities have a planetary identifier Icon.\nMissions that are unavailable show the unfulfilled requirement, such as not having enough reputation, cargo space, or cash (for donations).[1]\nSelecting a mission reward\nMost missions offer a choice of three rewards. One will offer primarily credits, whilst the other two can offer greater reputation gain, commodities, materials, and/or greater influence increases in exchange for less credits. Some materials used for Engineering, and some commodities needed to unlock access to certain Engineers, can only be acquired as mission rewards.\nIf the player's ship gets destroyed then the mission fails in most cases, as mission data will be lost and mission items cannot be replaced.\nMission TypesEdit\nCourier Missions are one of the most common and simple types, and involve transporting either data or commodities from one Station or Surface Port to another. They will fail on ship destruction, as the data will be lost and the commodities are unique, though commodity courier missions allow for partial completion if at least 50% of the total amount is successfully delivered.\nIn some cases the goods may be illegal at the destination, in which case the mission will be clearly marked as a Smuggling mission.\nThe type of goods supplied will typically influence existing and upcoming faction states; delivery of food will counter famine states, and so on.\nUpon entering the destination system, these missions may offer a time bonus for completing it within a particular window of time (e.g. the next five minutes).\nSupply Missions involve either the acquisition and delivery of general goods, or a donation of credits/goods. The goods can be acquired from nearby/local markets; occasionally even from the issuing station/port.\nIn systems with resource sites, stations may offer \"Mining Rush\" missions. These simply require mining, refining, and delivering the specified quantity of a specific resource from local asteroid belts.\nDonation missions offer only reputation and influence as rewards, but credit donations can be a quick and easy (if sometimes expensive) way to make new friends; they can be completed as soon as they're accepted from the mission board.\nAs with Courier missions, the type of goods supplied will often have an influence on existing and upcoming faction states.\nAssassination Missions require the location and destruction of a specific target ship. Targets are usually pirates, but may also be generals, deserters, politicians, or (supposedly) infected individuals, depending upon faction/system states. Occasionally, the mission will have \"Wetwork\" in the title; the target will not be revealed until arriving in the specified system, and will possibly be a civilian.\nThe location of all targets will usually be unknown until the local Navigation Beacon or a specific Data Point has been scanned. A Discovery Scanner may also be used to track down targets. If the Navigation Beacon does not reveal the target's location, they can possibly be coaxed out of hiding by entering random Unidentified Signal Sources in the system.\nPirates will usually attempt to interdict any would-be hunters, or may even jump in to ambush them at the Navigation Beacon, at Signal Sources, or even when they're busy fighting other pirates. Others, particularly Deserters, prefer to flee when encountered and will likely need to be interdicted after being traced.\nRarely, these missions may offer a bonus for destroying the target without losing your own ship in the process.\nMassacre Missions involve hunting down and destroying a specific number of ships from a particular faction, often (but not always) as part of a Civil War. These are most often Pirate ships, but they may be Civilians. Anarchy factions will usually openly refer to the targets as Civilian, whilst legal factions will typically only refer to the mission as 'Spec Ops' or 'Black Ops', and only reveal the target's identity on arrival in the destination system.\nDuring a Civil War, target ships can easily be found at any Conflict Zone involving one of the relevant factions, though these areas are of course quite dangerous.\nObviously, missions involving the destruction of civilian ships will be very illegal at the destination unless it's an Anarchy system. Spec Ops or Black Ops missions may also have special modifiers that slow (or stop) the arrival of System Authority ships when engaging mission targets.\nOne variant of Massacre missions exclusive to Horizons requires destruction of a certain quantity of Skimmers at a specified Settlement. These missions do not technically require the use of an SRV, but hitting Skimmers with ship-mounted weapons is challenging and many settlements have large Trespass/No-Fly Zones alongside arrays of anti-ship laser batteries. Whilst the missions specify \"Sentry Skimmers\" (suggesting that only the S4 Sentry counts), other models such as Stingers or Guardians can also count towards the completion goal.\nTechnically a subset of Supply Mission, these missions involve tracking down and stealing or liberating goods from a specific target or group of targets. Sometimes they're legal missions, which require the recovery of stolen goods (or sometimes hostages) from a particular craft, whilst others will be illegal and require interdiction (and possibly manifest scanning) of civilian shipping vessels to acquire the items in question.\nIf a specific craft must be raided in order to retrieve the items, the mission briefing will also provide a time window during which they can be encountered. Careful aim and/or Hatch Breaker Limpets are advised; destroying the target whilst they are still carrying mission items will result in mission failure.\nRecovery missions involve the retrieval of specific goods - sometimes legal, sometimes not - from deep space or planetary surface locations. Goods include items like black boxes, commercial samples, lost artwork, military plans, or other miscellaneous commodities. The location of the items in question - if not provided by the contractor - can be revealed either by scanning the local Navigation Beacon or by using a Discovery Scanner.\nWhen recovering items from a deep space Signal Source, care should be taken to check the Threat level before arrival; a Threat higher than 0 indicates that hostiles will arrive shortly after entering the location, so be prepared to either stand and fight, or recover the items before they arrive.\nSometimes, factions may request an Illegal Recovery mission, or (during a Civil War) a Civil War Recovery mission. In the former case, System Authorities will have to be avoided (as the item will be marked as Stolen), and in the latter, pilots should be prepared to deal with the swift arrival of hostile craft from the opposing faction at the recovery site.\nSurface recovery missions do not strictly require an SRV if using a small enough ship, but this approach is awkward. Note that Collector Limpets will have issues with retrieving surface cargo\nAside from planetary Recovery missions, there are two other mission types involving surface sites; Data Recovery/Theft, and Generator Sabotage. Both mission types require the use of an SRV.\nFor Data Recovery/Theft, a site must be located (using the local Nav Beacon or a Discovery Scanner), and a Data point at that site then interacted with using the SRV Data Link Scanner. This site will typically be a randomly-generated Outpost or Building rather than an actual Settlement. The site will be lightly protected by Skimmers (some of which may be buried) and Defense Turrets. Data points are sometimes Public, but usually Private and located within a Trespass Zone. Some sites may also have additional loot in the form of items like legal salvage containers and escape pods.\nGenerator Sabotage, meanwhile, requires the identification and destruction of a specific generator type (e.g. Comms, Defense Grid) at a target Settlement. These sites have extensive no-fly zones and serious defensive networks, so approaching on the ground with an SRV is essentially mandatory (though some lightly-defended sites can be attacked by ships or fightercraft directly) to avoid ship destruction.\nBoth mission types can be a good source of Encoded Materials due to the presence of scannable Data Points, and they can also provide Data Point Intel Packages.\nNotesEdit\n- On top of finding Missions via the Mission Board, they can also rarely be issued after destroying a hostile ship, after scanning a navigation beacon or Data point, whilst supercruising, or after visiting rare Unidentified Signal Sources.\n- Certain missions may spawn additional hostiles that hunt the player after completing the primary objectives. These targets can be engaged and destroyed for an additional bounty, or evaded. Courier missions, meanwhile, can sometimes generate a Time Bonus upon entering the Destination system.\n- Community Goals can also be accepted from the mission board.\n- Some missions will require the player to perform activities which are viewed as illegal in most systems so be sure to check all of the mission details before accepting.\n- If a mission is illegal it will generally (not always) specify this in a \"SPECIAL\" line near the bottom of the details.\n- Keep in mind that most missions are time sensitive! Timers run in real time and do not pause. If you are unable to dedicate enough uninterrupted time to complete the mission it is highly recommended that you do not accept the mission as you will be penalized with a fine and reputation decrease for failing the mission.\n- Beware that trade missions (supply x amount of y) have a very high chance of spawning incoming enemy events; usually around a 70% chance each. Not only this but these events will spawn much higher class enemies than normal (ie a Type-9 will consistently have Anacondas and Pythons sent after it, despite normally only attracting Fer-de-Lances at worst) that also have high combat ranks. You can often either end up ganged up on or have several interdictions chained together almost endlessly. Do not take these missions in bulk unless you are ready to fight off very powerful ships. You can avoid this by simply noting the needed supply without taking the mission then gathering it and coming back.\n- Chapter Four (3.3) of Elite Dangerous: Beyond will implement a dedicated server for missions. This will reduce overall instability caused by the current practice of including missions on a shared server with other elements of the game, prevent players from being disconnected when missions are unavailable, and make missions consistent across Game Modes.[2]\nVideosEdit\nReferencesEdit\n- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Elite Dangerous Players Guide v2.30\n- ↑ Frontier Forums: Implementation of a dedicated mission server"}
{"text": "Distributed from 1951, the Super 400CES is the ‘Cutaway Electric Spanish’ version of Gibson’s highly ornate Super 400 carved spruce archtop guitar released earlier in 1935.\nMeasuring a full 18 inches in width, Super 400s remain to this day the largest of any Gibson guitar in regular production. They were marketed as the top-of-the-line instruments within their range, sporting gold-plated hardware with engraving, large mother-of-pearl inlays, multiple-ply binding, figured maple b ack, sides and neck, and an ebony fingerboard.\nSuper 400s are among the most finely crafted guitars ever built and are rightly regarded as works of art in themselves, with little expense being spared during their construction. Indeed, Gibson’s first official announcement of the Super 400 in 1934 proclaimed: “The Super 400 is an extraordinary guitar in everyway - its price is a criterion of its quality... Whether it takes two months or two years to build just one instrument, it must be perfect.”\nThe Super 400CES ultimately proved to be popular with a broad range of name guitarists, from jazz players to rock ’n’ rollers\nThe concept of the Super 400 emerged from a design and marketing overhaul of Gibson’s carved top/back archtops during the 1930s, which was intended to spread their price points across a greater number of potential customers. Subsequently, in 1935, Gibson ‘advanced’ the width of its seminal f-hole archtop, the L-5 (first released in 1922), from 16 to 17 inches, and applied the same enlargement to the L-10, L-12 and L-7 (originally released in 1929,1930 and 1932 respectively). Bigger was, apparently, better and with an unprecedented width of 18 inches, the new Super 400 was unveiled as Gibson’s crowning glory the same year, priced at $400.\nIt was a time of great innovation and Gibson soon began testing the waters with its new ‘Electric Spanish’ archtops alongside its latest acoustic archtop designs - firstly, with the ES-150, in 1936, shortly followed by the ES-100, ES-250 and ES-300 models (released in 1938,1939 and 1940 respectively). Gibson’s ES range proved to be a success, and although World War II put a temporary hold on electric guitar production, the company picked up the reins once again in 1947 and released the laminate-topped ES-125, ES-150 and ES-300, along with its cutaway-equipped sibling, the ES-350.\nThe following year, soon-to-be company president Ted McCarty arrived at Gibson, marking the beginning of a new ‘golden era’ under the watchful eye of the firm’s owners, Chicago Musical Instruments (or CMI). As the electric guitar became ever more popular, Ted explicitly sought to further expand Gibson’s range, beginning with the so-called ‘McCarty’-pickup- totingL-7E and L-7PE (Premiere/cutaway Electric), followed by the ES -175 and the distinctly upmarket ES-5 laminate topped instruments in 1949.\nKeen to take on board suggestions from its more innovation-minded customers, Gibson began to develop dedicated electric versions of its foremost archtops, the Super 400 and L-5. Previously, if guitarists wanted to amplify these distinguished guitars, they would often turn to an aftermarket pickup assembly, but with the release of the Super 400CES and L-5CES in 1951, Gibson had finally succeeded in embracingthe advantages of the electric guitar in its most refined archtop designs.\nDesigned to reduce feedback with a slightly thicker carved top and more substantial bracing than its acoustic equivalent, the Super 400CES ultimately proved to be popular with a broad range of name guitarists, from jazz players to rock ’n’ rollers, and has remained in production ever since.\nCustom-ordered 1963 Gibson Super 400CESN (Ex-Mark Knopfler)\n1.

Mahapatra, the scientist at the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL), reported that the fingerprints on three bottles of Kingfisher beer, Sprite cold drink and Sula whiskey were of Hemraj, a domestic help whose body was found in the terrace of the Noida house of the Talwars a day after Aarushi was found murdered.\nThe lawyer said the partial DNA test suggested that the fingerprints on the beer bottle and on palm-print on the terrace were of the same person.\nThree glasses and three bottles were found in the room of Hemraj, suggesting that three people had been drinking that night. Also, the marks on the domestic help’s bed suggested that three people had sat on it.\nThe food left for Hemraj in the kitchen had been left untouched.\nThere was also evidence that Hemraj received calls on the telephone 2.30 p.m., May 15 2008, indicating that Raj Kumar, who worked as a domestic help in the home of a couple who were associates of the Talwars, had fixed the time to visit Hemraj in the night.\nAt the time that Raj Kumar spoke to Hemraj, Rajesh Talwar, the dentist father of Aarushi, was at a private medical college giving a lecture.\nBharti, a maid in the Talwar household, submitted on record that she asked Nupur, the mother of the murdered girl, to throw down the keys in the morning.\nThe family’s driver Umesh and a washerman in the locality also testified that although the main gate to the home remained closed all the time, and was not easy to open, it could be pushed hard and opened.\nThe circumstances, the lawyer said, suggested that entry from outside was possible, and the marks on Hemraj’s bed suggested that there were people from outside the house within, on the night of the murder.\nIn its arguments, the CBI had said that there was no one from outside the house within, and the parents were solely responsible for whatever happened that night.\nThe next hearing in the matter will be held Nov 9.\nAarushi, 14, was found murdered at her parents’ Noida residence May 16, 2008. The body of Hemraj was found the next day on the terrace of the house.\n(Source:IANS)"}

{"text": "Greg Matli, Indiana State Statistician for USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service is calling it a career. His final day on the job is March 28, 2020, capping a long career looking at a lot of numbers.\n“I started out as a field enumerator for NASS back in 1985, so it’s been 34 years from an enumerator collecting the data, out talking to farmers to going back and getting some statistical classes to become a statistician. It’s been a great 34 years,” he told HAT.\nOne hallmark of Matli’s years at NASS has been a willingness to get out from behind the desk and meet farmers and discuss issues and concerns with them.\n“You know the farmers are a great group of guys and gals to talk to. We don’t try to hide anything on how we do anything, so as long as they’re willing to meet us at the table and talk with us, we’ll explain exactly how our processes work, and it’s really not our report. It’s their report. It’s their numbers to provide that equal and level footing on the playing field since they can’t compete with the large corporations that can gather data on their own.”\nAnd being willing to meet with his constituency has meant facing some harsh words on occasion.\n“There’s sometimes I walk into a room and I know it’s going to be a loaded room, like this past August,” he said. “I knew when I walked into a room then it was going to be some harsh words to USDA. I don’t take them personally, but just give us an opportunity to explain how we do it. Like I tell them, we go to the horse’s mouth, we go to the farmer to get the data.”\nRetirement means moving back to Illinois to help Matli’s father on the farm, helping his brother with his catering business, and helping his daughter as she begins a goat dairy operation. No replacement Indiana state statistician has yet been identified. Matli says that could be set by late summer to early fall.\nMatli took over as the state statistician when Greg Preston moved to USDA/NASS in Washington in 2013. Congratulations and good luck in retirement Greg!"}
