Abstract: This paper investigates the ability of subjective expectations about life expectancy to predict wealth holding patterns in later life. Based on panel data from the Asset and Health Dynamics among the Oldest Old, we estimate a structural life-cycle model with bequests. Each individual’s subjective survival rates in the future are estimated with data on his belief of survival probabilities to a target age. This estimation is build upon a Bayesian updating method developed in Gan et al. (2005). We find that life-cycle model using subjective survival rates performs better than using life-table survival rates in predicting wealth holdings. This result suggests that subjective survival expectations play an important role in deciding consumption and savings. In addition, the estimation results show that most bequests are involuntary or accidental.

Lexi yanked her suitcase zipper closed and set the bag on the floor. She’d spent the day in the city—brunch with Brian, a little shopping and back to her place to pack up some clothes to take back to Glenmore.
Hurt shone in his brown eyes until his features relaxed into an expression of appeasement. She’d recently come to resent his way of making her feel like a crazy person in need of placating. Why couldn’t he acknowledge her right to be angry and anxious about taking over her father’s practice?
She spoke slowly and evenly.
“When you said you had to work, I didn’t feel I could ask. I know your work is important to you, but it was my father’s funeral.” Her voice caught. When she was angry, she had a tendency to get teary. She considered it a personal weakness. And that made her angrier.
Lisa K. Nielsen was born and raised in West Dundee, Illinois. Her love of books started early on, with a particular interest in mysteries.
Lisa received a B.S. degree in zoology from Iowa State University. She then attended the Physician Assistant program at the University of Iowa.
After graduation, she moved to Peoria, Illinois where her first position as a physician assistant was in cardiovascular and thoracic surgery. She then moved on to the specialty of urology.
Her work was busy and time consuming, but she always made time to read. After years of dreaming about it, she finally put a pen to paper and wrote down some stories of her own.
Question for author. Do you find that you can base some of your fiction off real life experiences (especially being in the medical field)?
The book has a very seductive cover.
Congratulations on this release! Best wishes for much success!
An absolute must read. The book is interesting and the cover appealing.
This reminds me a little bit of Hart of Dixie!
Congratulations on your new career!!

Great artists are frequently obsessive about things that seize them for reasons they hardly understand at first. For the better part of two decades Darius Quarles has felt that way about Durham, tobacco, and Liberty Warehouse. The only explanation he could offer me this month when we chatted at Pleiades, where he is one of the resident artists, was that his very first public art showing had been in the Scrap Exchange when it was still in the Liberty Warehouse complex.
Quarles was part of something called the Mongo Roadshow. Quarles talked to Ann Woodward, even then a key cog at the Scrap Exchange, and asked “What do I do?” She told him the show was about work made from scrap. Quarles found a scrap piece of wood, glued a big oak leaf from his neighborhood to it, and dribbled black and white paint on it, Jackson Pollock style. He still has the piece and says the oak leaf has shrunk to about the size of a quarter. He and Woodward have remained friends across the years.
He hung his work in the old ramshackle, tobacco warehouse on Foster Avenue (one of the Scrap Exchange’s many former homes). He was fascinated. His first interest was the building, at that time also home to Liberty Arts, before the roof caved in on them. There were relics, some might say junk, from another era strewn about, paintings on the walls, the sweet smells lingered in the air. Quarles, like so many with an interest in Durham’s history and our old building stock, found Open Durham. He began compiling stories and photos.
Some eleven years later Quarles heard that Liberty Warehouse apartments was looking for someone to paint a mural in their courtyard.
He submitted a proposal with a more than four foot sketch on paper in April of 2016. When his proposal won, he was thrilled, even though more than forty feet of his original conception was chopped. A year later when he began on his working his Durham mural at the nearly complete Liberty Warehouse apartments, Quarles realized he was going to lose some additional square footage to the doorways in the wall.
First it took nearly forty-five days to scrape the existing paint off of the wall, then he painted a coat of primer on the entire surface.
Quarles referred to himself in our interview as a “New Jack”.
He said, “[as a New Jack] I’m self-taught. I do things a million times.” [until I get it right] being the implication.
When it came to paint removal, Quarles admitted he was lucky to have a neighbor who was a professional painter and could make additional suggestions beyond what Quarles was getting from the Googlierge and YouTube. After scraping, but before priming, he washed the walls with bleach. He primed and began sketching his outline. At first he was arriving between 4.30am-5am with a projector to do the lettering and the outline.
The mural is a history of Durham told through tobacco. The first image that appears looking left to right or walking north to south is of someone tending a row of tobacco in a garden. Quarles noted that he had learned through his research that tobacco was grown in public and private spaces in Durham, including immediately along both Mangum and Main Streets.
Seen surveying this crop is the grandfatherly figure of Walker Stone, Sr. whose family owned the Liberty Warehouse building. The mural scene then shifts to the interior of the building on a tobacco auction day. We (the viewer) are looking over the heads and backs of the masses. Tobacco brought a lot of money to Durham.
Quarles doesn’t shy from that reality as the mural shifts to Slick, a legendary and perhaps apocryphal figure in the tobacco scene. Slick was the final seal of approval before Durham tobacco went to Greensboro, destined for brands like Newports, Mavericks, Old Gold, Kents, and Trues. In the mural he is accompanied by two rather shady looking characters. Quarles told me the one on the left is serving as a lookout.
Those who know some of the history of the run of roles played by Liberty Warehouse can understand the need for lookouts.
The mural ends with trucks being loaded with prime tobacco.
Quarles history with Durham goes back a piece. He was raised by his grandparents, Clyde and Adeline. Clyde was a World War II veteran with a 100 acre farm he worked in Louisa, Virginia, which is about 150 miles due north of here. Quarles described it as a one stop light town then. His grandfather was both aware of and nostalgic about Durham tobacco and the smell of Durham.
Farming taught Quarles lessons in hard work, literally and through the example of Clyde and Adeline. They had a five or six acre garden on the farm. Grandma Adeline pulled double duty running a beauty salon out of the house. Young Darius was tasked with selling produce from the family farm to hair salon customers.
But notes this is part of his drive, he has “seen both sides.” He has worked hard to make himself both as an artist and as a member of Durham’s art family. He credits Pleiades Gallery where he is now based for helping him to bring his work out of the house. For years he painted every day at home while he raised his kids.
He met Kim Wheaton, the co-director of Pleiades, while they were both park of Durham’s annual Art Walk. When she and Rene Leverty started Pleiades, Kim reached out to Quarles. He is still grateful. He refers to Wheaton and Leverty as his “art angels”.
Years later Interstate 64 went right through his grandparents property. But today, Grandma Adeline is still running the in-home beauty salon at ninety.
You can tell that Quarles comes from people who keep on keeping on. How else do you motivate to scrape paint for forty-five days?
He was dedicated. His grandparents finally got to see his work in person for the first time at the Grand Opening of Pleiades four years ago. It rained like crazy that day he recalls.
Grandparents are like that he said, they want to see proof, they want to see other people enjoy their grandson’s work. And they were able to.
Perhaps her suspicions had root causes.
He tells me the some of the story of the time between Louisa, Virginia and settling in Durham.
Almost twenty years ago, Quarles found a very different Durham.
The getting here story involves a black car with tinted windows, Atlanta, the University of North Carolina, a speeding ticket, court dates in downtown, and a Henderson judged who sternly warned Quarles, “ain’t nobody famous in Vance County”.
Quarles took the judge’s tone to heart. He says, “he found himself in Durham”. He notes, his focus from when got here has improved by a hundred-fold. He is a family man, with a wife and kids. He dove into Durham in a positive way and found an accepting and positive culture in return. He says he “loves Durham and loves being a part of Durham,” as he and I reminiscence in Pleiades about the changes seen downtown. We both remember an era when there were more bail bondsmen than residents inside the downtown loop. Now, his kids have grown up here. And they love it.
His second show was at the now disappeared Mr. Shoe (swallowed in One City Center site).
His work was four pieces. He was painting on cardboard then and the space was more of an artist hangout than an official gallery. Quarles says seven people total came to see it, and he brought three of them. Newbies, this is what it was like in that era, when artists, well ahead of the curve, were sharing art in a nearly deserted downtown Durham.
There are twenty to thirty folks who stop by religiously according Quarles. Many of them are older. They share stories with an artist who they sense is as invested in Durham as they are. Many of these folks have lived in Durham their whole lives. Quarles reports they tell him they get such a “kick” out of strolling around a vibrant downtown Durham.
He in turn draws inspiration for them, feeling verified in who he has become as a family man and artist, alongside Durham. His two youngest have been helping with the Liberty painting.
The mural he is painting is a block from the Durham skate park. Quarles frequently interacts with the young skaters. The kids love the painting and the idea that he (a black man like many of them) is getting to do it.
Quarles concedes that he has had to answer the question of why the mural faces inward toward the apartments rather than outward toward the neighborhood repeatedly. It turns on the issue of the historic preservation of the exterior original wall of Liberty Warehouse, which couldn’t be painted in this way and be considered maintained “as is” by the standards set out.
Quarles personal reach out from the elderly strolling by to the kids rolling by has been to make clear that this courtyard and the mural are public space. The sense of community is magnified for Quarles with each and every person who comes by to talk while he is working.
So stop by. Say hey. Marvel at a town that supports public art.
Heck, we have so many murals that there is a biking mural tour.
See more of Quarles work at Pleiades Gallery at 109 East Chapel Hill Street.

Interviewer: What’s the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony charge UI charge?
Brian Sloan: If someone is charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, drugs, prescription medications, a vapor-releasing substance and being impaired to the slightest degree, it’s a misdemeanor. If they are charged with having any drug or some metabolite in their system that was not being taken as prescribed, that’s a misdemeanor, as well as: If they were driving with a blood alcohol level at or above .08; If they’re driving with a blood alcohol level above .15; If they’re driving with a blood alcohol level above .20.
For all the misdemeanors they can actually be driving or in actual physical control of the vehicle. All those are misdemeanors.
When we get into felony territory is when someone was basically committing a misdemeanor DUI but they had a child under the age of 15 in the vehicle. That’s going to be a Class 6 Felony, or they committed a DUI while their license was suspended, revoked, cancelled, refused or restricted. That’s going to be a Class 4 Felony.
Or they committed a DUI when they were ordered to have an Ignition Interlock Device placed on any vehicle they operate, or they committed a DUI and it is their third DUI, third or more DUI within seven years, then that will also be considered a Class 4 Felony.

Throughout generations Anansi was used as an example for all to see. When he is bad, he serves as an example of what not to do, when he is good he gives hope to bad or desperate situations. Norma Darby and Hazel Nicholson, second cousins of Brer Anansi under the directorship of the Spiderman himself bring Anansi's creativity to Anansi Creations.

I read somewhere that Hitler was not only a vegan, but he didn't like it when his woman used perfume that contained animal products.
The irony in that is just staggering.
I have a niece that has every kind of animal doll imaginable, but will NOT play with 'human' dolls, she just doesn't like them. The post above makes me think about that. .
Bad taste is just an acquired taste!!!
John "Stumpy" Pepys (1943-1969) Cause of death: Bizarre gardening accident.
Speaking of death, isn't it a strange feeling to outlive someone who used to be older than you? Friend of mine, who was always someone I looked up to because of the difference in our ages, died at age twenty-six when I was twenty-one, and now I've lived to be older than he ever got to be, but in my head he's always going to be the older of us, and that's such an odd feeling.
"A big old blonde geek with glasses."
"You know what I want you to do, kick me in the @ss..."
chewing a small hole in the bottom of a bearcan is not the fastest way to get it out.
Well, some people are kooky enough to value the lives of animals over the lives of people. I know a vegan girl (she doesn't eat ANY animal products, including honey) who won't kill any animal, not even a spider or bug, but during a debate we had on the subject of abortion she said, and I quote, "If I got pregnant I'd want to get rid of the stupid thing as fast as possible!"
Course, maybe that's not the best analogy, but I just found that kind of ironic.
Course, you know, laws to protect animals from harm came into existence decades before anyone thought to enact laws against child abuse.

What a sweet title: "my people"! What a cheering revelation: "their God"! What a wealth of meaning is couched in those two words, "my people!"
Here is speciality. The whole world is God's; the heaven, even the heaven of heavens, is the Lord's, and He reigns among the children of men. But of those whom He has chosen, whom He has purchased to Himself, He says what He says not of others--"my people."
In this word there is the idea of proprietorship. In a special manner "the LORD's portion is his people, Jacob his allotted heritage."1 All the nations upon earth are His; the whole world is in His power. But His people, His chosen, are more especially His possession, for He has done more for them than for others. He has bought them with His blood; He has brought them to Himself; He has set His great heart upon them; He has loved them with an everlasting love, a love that many waters cannot quench and that the revolutions of time will never in the least degree diminish.
Dear friends, can you by faith see yourselves in that number? Can you look up to heaven and say, "My Lord and my God: mine by that sweet relationship that entitles me to call You Father; mine by that hallowed fellowship that I rejoice to enjoy with You when You are pleased to show Yourself to me as You do not to the world"? Can you read the Bible and find there the guarantee of your salvation? Can you read your title written in precious blood? Can you, by humble faith, lay hold of Jesus' garments and say, "My Christ"?
If you can, then God says of you, and of others like you, "My people;" for if God be your God and Christ your Christ, the Lord has a special interest in you; you are the object of His choice, accepted in His beloved Son.

I can provide an equivalent for this part. Are you sure that only this part is damaged? Normally FM75HA10, 30GG2Z11 and drive section on the main PCB are also damaged when FDM-2B gets damaged.

4California Institute of Renal Research, San Diego.
Tacrolimus (tac) is an immunosuppressive drug with a narrow therapeutic range. Adequate trough levels following kidney transplantation (≥6 ng/mL depending on regimen and time post-transplant) are required to prevent against rejection while Cmax cannot be too high (generally <12ng/mL) or else there is risk for toxicity and adverse events. Contributing to tac dosing challenges are suboptimal pharmacokinetics (PK; e.g., low bioavailability, high fluctuation) of the traditional twice-daily capsule formulation (Prograf®) and differences in tac metabolism among specific patient populations (e.g., African Americans; females). Envarsus® XR is an extended-release, once-daily, formulation of tac that uses a novel MeltDose® drug delivery technology which decreases drug particle size down to a molecular level resulting in improved absorption and once-daily dosing. Randomized trials in de novo and stable kidney transplant recipients have shown increased bioavailability, reduced Cmax and noninferior efficacy and similar safety as Prograf, at a reduced total daily dose (TDD). The purpose of the present analysis was to examine dosing and bioavailability (trough/TDD) of tac over a two year period in de novo kidney recipients randomized to Envarsus XR or Prograf. Immediately post-transplant, target tac trough levels were more rapidly achieved in the Envarsus XR group. From Week 3 onward, TDDs were lower for Envarsus XR and the difference between the two groups increased over time. By month 24, the mean TDD for Envarsus XR was 24% lower than the Prograf group, yet troughs (ng/mL) were similar (5.5 vs. 5.7, respectively). These data show that Envarsus XR is associated with continued improved absorption/bioavailability, resulting in the requirement for a lower TDD vs. Prograf, over two years.

Social Security Act (1935) With a dramatic increase in life expectancy and decreases in mortality rates, many old People live their later lives with chronic illnesses and disabilities. As a result, long-term care is becoming an important part of service to the elderly population. The US General Accounting Office (1994) reports that more than 12 million Americans need long-term care and 55% of them are people aged 65 or older (Binstock, Cluff, & Mering, 1996).
What does it mean to lead? Why are there separations and distinctions in leadership? Nearly every corner of society is laced with theories and expectations of leadership. One expert will state an inherited perspective of leadership, while others will argue that it is something that is earned. Purposely avoiding the theory, we must dive head first into leadership; a taste that is laced with pure emotion and controlled by logic. Great leaders demonstrate different characteristics.

With the end of another month comes a fresh batch of Android platform distribution numbers. Like clockwork, Google has once again updated their numbers, showing Gingerbread's cold, withered hand still holding almost 51% of the pie (though it's down from 54.2% in October), with Jelly Bean making gains to 6.7%, up 4% from last month.
Predictably, Ice Cream Sandwich is still making some gains, rising about 2% to 27.5% from October, Honeycomb is holding tight at 1.6% with a mere 0.2% change for API level 13, and pre-2.3 releases are still dropping off (though Cupcake and Donut are still holding on for dear life).
Like always, the arrival of a new pie chart brings an updated historical distribution chart, which shows the growth and decline of each version of Android in a lovely visual that sorts builds old to new, top to bottom. Interestingly, Google has opted to lump some builds together under their overarching code names, for example ditching the 4.0.x designation for simply "Ice Cream Sandwich."
To see the full report (including more interesting and useful numbers), just hit the link below.

Why Must you Pick the Finest Video Production Firm?
In regards to video production, it is vital to choose the finest company that has the capacity to help you. There are lots of companies that are engaged in the field of video production and you should closely check on the details and make sure that you are choosing the best choices that you have.
How can you look for the finest video production company?
If you happen to be searching for the finest video production company that would aid in launching your brand with a strong punch, all you have to do is to check on the company's details beforehand. You must not make an error in selecting a company that do not have the capability to make an excellent video for you because it could affect the overall impression of your clients. View this website http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entertainment/ about video production.
All video editing services toronto would have their personal portfolios mainly because it is one of the best methods to show their skills and talents. When you look over their portfolio, you would be able to identify their work and assess what kind of portfolio they have.
Whenever a video is created, you have to keep an eye on various points. There are no possibilities of fiddling with the particularities because if the video's sub segments are erroneous, it would surely take away its purpose. Whenever sample videos are found in the portfolio, you would have an idea of how efficient the videos would likely to be and whether or not it would fit your needs.
While it the effectiveness of a company like Viva Media is becoming more difficult to analyze based on reviews, you must still do the same thing. Numerous companies want to advertise their services by putting false reviews, yet, if you diligently and carefully look at it, you must be able to see the legit review that is most likely your guide onto whether or not you will hire such company.
Whenever you like to select a video production company, you must know what kind of services they are offering. You should be eager enough to analyze the list of their service, the expense, and then begin to weigh them in accordance to your preference so that you would have the knowledge onto whether or not the particular video production company is right for you.

Where more than one party is at fault and causes harm to someone, they are, in law, equally responsible to pay out the total amount of damages owing to the injured person. This happens frequently in car accident cases where an at-fault driver’s insurance policy limits are not adequate to cover the injured victim’s damages. If a municipality is also at fault, in addition to the at-fault driver, the municipality may have to pay the injured victim’s damages over the at-fault driver’s insurance policy limits.
Full compensation for an injured victim is the primary objective of joint and several liability. Why should the injured victim suffer because an at-fault driver has inadequate insurance? Most drivers in Ontario carry $1 million policies. Most cases fall within those policy limits. But the most seriously injured and vulnerable have cases in excess of that amount. Those are the people joint and several liability protects.
For the last several years, the lobby group for municipalities in Ontario has been trying to get the government to do away with joint and several liability.
NO. In fact, eliminating joint and several liability creates systemic unfairness to the most vulnerable and injured victims in Ontario.
How does eliminating joint and several liability create unfairness?
Seriously injured victims suffer when the amount of their claims exceed the policy limits of one of the other at-fault parties. It means they go without compensation to cover the cost of their ongoing care, treatment and loss of income, placing an undue burden on our already-strained health care system and social safety net.
But what about fairness to the municipalities?
The municipalities of Ontario would have you believe that municipalities pay out money simply by virtue of being sued along with another at-fault party. This is completely untrue. A municipality is only required to pay an injured person when they are also an at-fault party.
The municipality has to be liable in the first place!
For over thirty years, municipalities have failed to point to any reliable evidence or data that would support their arguments that joint and several liability is linked to rising insurance premiums or higher taxes for ratepayers. Their claims of financial hardship are just being used as an excuse to give them even more special protection when they have done something wrong.
How are municipalities protected? What “special protection” are we talking about?
an injured victim must notify the municipality in writing, with particulars, within only 10 days of injury or their lawsuit can fail – even if there is a valid reason (like being incapacitated from the injury!). In most other civil matters, you have up to two years to bring a lawsuit. Not so with municipalities!
a municipality cannot be held responsible for injury caused by snow or ice on a sidewalk unless it is grossly negligent – a much higher standard for an injured person to meet!
Municipalities need no further protection. Injured victims do.

The Bridge Resource Management course introduces the concept of a navigation team to ship masters and watch officers enhancing their decision making processes as would be expected of a safe and efficient team. Bridge Resource Management techniques will emphasise decision making based upon conditions related to workload and potential threat to the vessel.
The intent of the programme is to define the individual tasks and responsibilities of the various team members while developing a situational awareness to prevent individual errors. Our trainees can expect a high proportion of simulator time interspersed with lectures on human factors and decision making.
Delegates should have navigational knowledge and a Certificate of Competency.

The 28-day Stoptober campaign gets underway today. It aims to help those addicted give up the habit.
The health minister Mark Drakeford has promoted the health benefits of stopping smoking as Stoptober gets underway across the country.
"I applaud all those that will be giving up smoking in October.
"Stopping smoking for 28 days means that you're five times more likely to stop for good and the benefits will become clear in just a few weeks.
"People who give up smoking will not only reduce their risk of heart disease and lung cancer but they will also have financial benefits.
"The Stoptober campaign aims to raise awareness of the benefits of giving up smoking and the free support available through Stop Smoking Wales."

For Heather and Dodge, the game will bring new alliances, unexpected revelations, and the possibility of first love for each of them – and the knowledge that sometimes the very things we fear are those we need the most.
Love—good and bad—forces three teens’ worlds to tilt in a riveting standalone novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Ellen Hopkins.
Three teens, three stories—all interconnected through their parents’ family relationships. As the adults pull away, caught up in their own dilemmas, the worlds of the teens begin to tilt.
Mikayla, almost eighteen, is over-the-top in love with Dylan, who loves her back jealously. But what happens to that love when Mikayla gets pregnant the summer before their senior year and decides to keep the baby?
Shane turns sixteen that same summer and falls hard in love with his first boyfriend, Alex, who happens to be HIV positive. Shane has lived for four years with his little sister’s impending death. Can he accept Alex’s love, knowing his life, too, will be shortened?
Looking forward to Panic and Missing You. Have a great week.
Harlan Coben is speaking at a virtual event at my local bookstore this week, I think. I doubt I’ll be able to make it though. I hope this week is less hectic for you!
Enjoy your week! I still haven’t read anything by Lauren Oliver.
Looks like a fabulous library sale. You obviously put a lot of work into it. Our library has a sale every year but it’s a lot smaller in scale… Panic looks interesting. Hope your week is all good happy reading!
I read Panic last month. It was good. Hope you enjoy it too.
Panic sounds like an interesting story. Glad I didn’t have that sort of senior year experience. 😛 Have a great week!
I’m so looking forward to that Harlan Coben. I heard him speak in Belfast before a screening of Tell No One and he is a very smart, funny guy.
Love Harlan Coben’s books. ENJOY!!
Another great post, Sheila. Panic sounds quite interesting. I have never read any books by Ellen Hopkins.
I love Ellen Hopkins but I’m not sure how I’d like her books on audio. Julie was loving Missing You when I talked to her last week. Have a great week!
I have only read one Lauren Oliver novel, and it was a middle-grade book – I really need to read some of her YA – I’ve heard such good things about them!
Looks like you had a great time with the library sale. I haven’t read Oliver yet either. Hope you enjoy your books!
Missing You sounds nice and creepy! Don’t think I’ve read anything by Coben yet. Saw on your sidebar that you’re listening to The Winter People–that one’s definitely on my TBR.

ARBOR DAY was held on April 25, 2014 in the Beachwood Cemetery. The Mayor, The Service Department and the Beachwood Historical Society collaborated together. A European Beech tree was planted by the students from Hilltop's Ecology Club. The Mayor declared this day as Arbor Day in the City. Nancy recited a special poem about trees. Rosemary shared about the history of Arbor Day. Chris talked about our Tree City USA status. J. Sterling Morton taught us all about the importance of planting trees. According to Mr. Morton, "each generation takes the earth as trustees." Morton stressed the importance of trees. The City of Beachwood, Ohio agrees!

I have an unusual job (or maybe it used to be considered unusual) in that I'm a career freelancer. I’ve been self-employed my entire life. Aside from some part-time positions during and between college, I’ve never received a W2 for any of the work that I do. With that comes a strange amount of freedom. No office, infrequent meetings, lots of self-directed time. Admittedly, there are many advantages to this situation, but one of the more annoying daily challenges is finding a productive workspace in which I can actually get something done.
For years, I worked in coffee shops and libraries, but where they may be good for a couple hours at a stretch, they really aren't ideal for the vagabond business-person such as myself. I have often struggled with security in a public place. Can I leave my stuff at a table when get a drink of water? Do I need to pack up all my stuff and carry it with me whenever I want to use the restroom? There are times when working in a public setting feels like being some high-tech nomad, searching for WiFi while you live off too many donuts and grande coffees.
Unfortunately, home offices are also problem for me. I go a bit stir-crazy sitting alone with my laptop. Often, I need to stop and concentrate, but absolute silence becomes its own distracting menace. Occasionally, I would put on Blade Runner which I have seen 100's of times and now have memorized (I have a bit of an obsession with Blade Runner). However, sometimes dialogue gets in the way of my actual work.
Years ago, I stayed in a hotel that had a loop of giant bubbles floating on the flat-screen TV in the room. It was amazing. There was some innocuous tone music playing. I had the benefits of working alone, but had the ambient movement and sound of an endless fishtank. It was great.
It’s not something to watch , per say, though I have to admit, it’s easy to just stare at it. However, when I put it on my AppleTV it provides movement and background noise in an otherwise empty house. Occasionally, I wonder what it would be like to just go the beach and watch the waves or have a campfire in real life. I'm definitely going to do more of that in the future. However, at the moment, I've got a bunch of projects to finish while I enjoy the sounds of a forest rain from my computer screen.

Oman, officially called the Sultanate of Oman, is a country in Southwest Asia, on the southeast coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It borders the United Arab Emirates in the northwest, Saudi Arabia in the west, and Yemen in the southwest. The coast is formed by the Arabian Sea in the south and east, and the Gulf of Oman in the northeast. The country also contains Madha, an enclave enclosed by the United Arab Emirates, and Musandam, an enclave also separated by Emirati territory.

Co-teaching, or team teaching, has become typical for most infant, toddler and preschool classrooms in traditional early education centers. The goal of co-teaching is to meet the needs of all students and improve teaching instruction. This course examines common struggles for co-teachers and discusses how co-teachers can work together to create a highly effective classroom. Ideas for establishing expectations, implementing useful co-teaching strategies, and developing positive relationships will be studied as well.

Changpeng Zhao, CEO of the world’s second largest crypto exchange by adjusted volume Binance, has revealed that the company will launch its decentralized trading platform later this month. This development was reported by a Cointelegraph correspondent at the Deconomy conference in Seoul.
Zhao, most known in the industry as CZ, is attending Deconomy — a crypto conference held in South Korea from April 4-5. Speaking briefly at the panel dubbed “Centralized vs Decentralized,” CZ has made two major announcements.
According to CZ, Binance DEX — a decentralized crypto exchange powered by Binance’s blockchain — will become fully available in April. Further details on the launch have not yet been provided.
Another announcement refers to the launch of Binance Singapore: CZ has stated that its fiat-to- crypto exchange servicing in the country is also set to launch in April.
Binance launched the testnet for DEX in late February. At the time, users were allowed to create wallets and start exchanging tokens on the Binance DEX. The platform will reportedly support secure decentralized software and hardware wallets.
Binance’s Trust Wallet will also be integrated with the exchange, along with the Ledger Nano S. More compatible wallets might also be added after the launch.
Yesterday, Binance also revealed that its Trust Wallet is preparing a new staking feature to launch by the end of Q2 2019. Moreover, the exchange has added support for Tezos (XTZ) — currently the 19th largest currency by market cap, according to CoinMarketCap.
Also this week, major crypto exchange and wallet Coinbase announced that they were also launching Tezos staking.

A detailed description of the way the energy budget determines ablation can be found เว็บพนันบอล ดีที่สุด 2019here, but a simplified version of the story goes as follows. In contrast to the midlatitude case, tropical glaciers do not have summertime melt seasons characterized by above-freezing air temperature. Lower altitude portions can be warmed directly by year-round exposure to above-freezing air, but at higher altitudes absorption of sunlight ultimately supplies all the energy which sustains ablation. However, the other terms in the energy balance directly or indirectly affect the amount of absorbed solar radiation which is available for ablation. These terms are sensitive to air temperature, atmospheric humidity, cloudiness, and wind. The daytime glacier surface temperature typically has to be greater than the air temperature in order to close the energy budget; in consequence, melting can occur even when the air temperature remains below freezing. Because melting is so much more energetically efficient than sublimation, the main way that moderate changes in atmospheric conditions — including air temperature– affect ablation is through changing the number of hours during which melting occurs, and the amount of energy available for melting. In particular, through infrared and turbulent heating effects, an increase in air temperature forces the glacier surface to warm, and makes it easier for melting to occur.

Has human lifespan reached its natural limit?
It may not be possible to extend the lifespan of humans beyond 125 years, a study published in Nature has suggested.
The researchers, from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, said that resources should be diverted away from lengthening life and towards lengthening time spent in good health.
They analysed data from the Human Mortality Database, and found that the age at death of supercentenarians had plateaued since 1995. They estimated the average maximum human lifespan at 115 years, and said that 125 years was the absolute limit. Jeanne Calment, the woman with the longest confirmed human lifespan on record, died at the age of 122.
The study’s senior author, Jan Vijg, said: ‘Demographers as well as biologists have contended there is no reason to think that the ongoing increase in maximum lifespan will end soon. But our data strongly suggest that it has already been attained and that this happened in the 1990s.
This is based on historical demographic data which suggest that not much improvement has been made to the maximum human life expectancy for some years, and therefore there may be a natural limit to the lifespan of the human body. Well, it’s not really surprising, but equally it’s not evidence. Many supposed scientific limits have been broken over the years, so who knows what the future of technology and evolution holds.
Perhaps the more important question is whether we really want to live for longer than 110 years, and whether our focus should be more on healthy ageing rather than longevity itself.

The match that confirmed the best start in the history of La Liga was a relatively placid but hard-fought win over Athletic Club. Barça’s two FIFA Ballon d’Or finalists pulled the strings for the home team as Barça treated the Camp Nou faithful to a spectacular performance on a cold Barcelona night.
The men led by Marcelo Bielsa started the match with the intention to battle for the three points. However, after the first ten minutes and with Andrés Iniesta running loose in Los Leones’ area, the visiting team knew it was going to be a long night.
Iniesta was driving Barça’s attack with a wide array of excellent passes, dribbles and vision of the pitch. In fact, the midfield maestro assisted both Leo Messi and Cesc Fàbregas.
Messi continued his quest to equal Gerd Müller’s all-time high goalscoring record. The Argentine’s now scored in six consecutive matches, and tonight was his 350th official match for FC Barcelona. In addition, he now has 20 goals this season in La Liga, and he’s only one goal adrift of Der Bomber’s mark.
The Argentine has six games left in 2012 to equal or surpass the historic mark of 85 goals set by the German in 1972.

Wage growth is outstripping house price growth at its fastest rate since 2011, enhancing buyer affordability.
This is contributing to both mortgage approvals and housing transactions holding up well, despite the ongoing political uncertainty related to Brexit.
Jonathan Stephens, managing director, Surrenden Invest, said: “The latest figures are further evidence of the UK housing market’s resilience in the face of the Brexit debacle.
According to the Zoopla/Hometrack UK Cities House Price Index showed there was no material drop in mortgage approval activity or transaction volumes during the latter half of 2018, when compared with the five-year average.
Furthermore, HMRC figures show that transaction volumes actually increased slightly during the first two months of 2019.
The National Living Wage in the UK has just risen by 4.9%. As of 1 April 2019, the national minimum wage rose from £7.83 per hour to £8.21 for those aged 25+. Workers aged 21-24 also saw an increase, from £7.38 per hour to £7.70, while those aged 18-20 saw a rise from £5.90 to £6.15.
According to specialist property investment agency Surrenden Invest, the impact of this can best be seen at a local level, where buyers are enjoying a distinct advantage thanks to their increased purchasing power.
Combine that with Rightmove’s reporting that new sellers’ asking prices are cheaper than they were a year ago in three out of four southern regions, for example, and the picture is looking positive for both buyers and investors.
Further north, many regional cities have been outstripping the price growth of their southern counterparts over the past three years, thanks to rising employment levels, as well as enhanced affordability.
Two cities – Leicester and Manchester – have even achieved price growth of 17% since the Brexit vote, creating fantastic capital growth for those who timed their purchases right around the time of the referendum.
Manchester remains high on the priority list of many an investor – and for good reason. The city is home to an impressive array of redevelopment projects. Two of the largest are the £800m NOMA site and the £1bn second phase of MediaCityUK in Salford, which will see the already vast site double in size.
Stephens added: “Such vast developments bring a wealth of opportunities, both for those who live in the city and for those looking to invest there.

We’ve wrapped up our second year of homeschool back in May, so the kids will officially be going into 2nd grade and kindergarten this fall!
I wanted to share a handful of our favorite resources we came across in this year of homeschooling.
This was my favorite “curriculum” we used, hands down. It’s 3 subjects – history, Bible, & geography – all in one class, and it teaches each subject more effectively than I’ve ever seen. If you follow the program all 12 years of schooling, you go through the history of the world in chronological order twice – a 6 year cycle from 1-6 grade, and then repeat the cycle from 7-12 grade.
I also love that the curriculum is written for the whole family – the bulk of the assignments are for the Family to do together, and then it also gives recommended reading divided up by grade, (1-3 grade, 4-6 grade, 7-12 grade) to enhance the experience for different age levels.
This year we did their Ancient Egypt + Genesis-Deuteronomy + Africa. I loved how the subjects were taught together, it made so much sense that way. I learned more than I ever have about that portion of the Bible (even after Christian college Bible classes), and the kids loved it too. It was fun to see how world history overlapped & intertwined with Bible history as well, and then the geography was of Africa, because of Egypt’s location in Northern Africa.
Next year we are doing Ancient Greece + Joshua-Malachi. I’m looking forward to it!
Kaden and I both highly preferred Handwriting Without Tears over the writing program we used last year. A couple of weeks ago I ordered Alia their kindergarten writing book for next year and she’s been begging me to start it since. HWT has a great iPad app that the kids love too.
I’ve never thought I enjoyed poetry very much, but reading poetry with the kids has been just one of the most pleasant things we’ve done this year. We make it extra special with Poetry Tea Time and the kids love it. They’ve memorized a few favorites which has been fun too. We’ve been reading out of Robert Louis Stevenson’s A Child’s Garden of Verses, and I think he is just the greatest. We read a biography on him, Robert Louis Stevenson: Storyteller and Adventurer, and really enjoyed it – Kaden said that was his favorite thing we did all year. It was really fun to get some background information in Stevenson’s life while enjoying his poems.
The free “Bedtime Math” app is something the kids ask to do daily. It’s a great way to get them thinking through real life math problems in a really fun way.
This has been my biggest influence on our schooling this year, it has shifted my viewpoints and priorities in the greatest way. Definitely listen to her first podcast here & see what it’s all about. Then you can jump around to any other podcast that interests you, I’ve enjoyed and learned from every one I’ve listened to – and not just in a that was nice sort of way, in a I think about the information I heard and it impacts my life every day kind of way.
Her book Teaching from Rest is one of the best things I’ve read as well, I highly highly recommend if you’re a homeschooling mom.
Landon and I went to a Simply Charlotte Mason encouragement conference last fall, and it was really incredible. Sonya Shafer does a phenomenal job, and it was so great for Landon & I to get on the same page with where we’re driving this whole homeschooling/parenting/life thing, we had a great time, learned a ton, and would love to do it again!
Alia was “Pre-K” last year, which we take very chill in this house. Mostly we just read and play, and she learned everything she needed to know, just the way Kaden did with Pre-K at home as well. We did this workbook, because she really wanted something to do while Kaden did his handwriting book and a friend recommended it.
A couple of my favorite books for Pre-K age are 1 is One by Tasha Tudor – I love this because unlike most counting books that go to 10, this one goes all the way up to 20, and in such beautiful words and illustrations, it’s just a pleasure to read together and occasionally count the items in the pictures when she’s interested. She learned to count to 20 this way, and after that figured out the rest all the way up to 100 by playing with the abacus.
I also love Poems to Read to the Very Young, poetry again, but it’s just the sweetest collection of poems about the simple joys of childhood, we love reading it together, I think it’s a must have in any child’s library.

"Passion is an important quality for teachers to model for students. Traditional classrooms are less and less successful in tapping into student passion. The course presented a variety of techniques to acces student passion, personalize student learning, encourage group work and generally empower students. It also connected passion to what employers are looking for most in their employees."
"This course has helped me realize the need for more passion-driven classrooms because our students deserve to be cared about and happy at school, more engaged and excited about learning, and prepared for the future workforce...I had never really thought about an intangible passion variable being so important to learning."
"What I will take away from this course is the learning club classroom. I plan on turning my intervention courses into math clubs with a more fun direction and making the class feel like a club-like atmosphere instead of a support class...The passion poem was what I loved the most. It was just perfect. I am going to hang that in my classroom and look at it often."

To backup Medialux and the Darwinex team, I am more shocked than surprised about some reactions.
If you knew what this industry is about, you'd realize most of the actors show some or a lot of dishonesty. I read about the mention of TopStepTrader which is nothing but a rip off. The targeted trading results which are filtered out by them are absolutely non-realistic and only invented to take out money from wannabee dreamers who can only fail to respect those conditions over time unless being alien traders. This is only a money machine for TopStepTrader and almost fully an uninteresting loss of time for the clients who take a trial at getting funded. Make people pay to take their chances on demo accounts, come on ! Don't you see what it's about ? And there is just so many more that could be said about pitfalls of this very service.
I had some work relationships with other brokers and technology services in that trading field and always got disappointed by human values and sometimes a total lack of work ethic.
After having spoken with Juan a few times, I can only vouch for his outrageous level of integrity and transparence overall, as well as a fantastic patience and listening ear. It's another world that I had yet to encounter. No wonder Darwinex will go far beyond the competition with such management quality. And let's include/not forget about the whole Darwinex team who does an amazing and hard-working job everyday. Most of them are very pro-active and passionate employees.
I really don't care about some little marketing strategy as long as the users' interests are fighted for and not flawed and that is what we have here today. Also, the protocole is based on the trading reality: margin/leverage concept, it's not an ordinary business of grocery store. I am not sure what there is to cry about, even from the investors' point of view.
To conclude, Darwinex, unlike other social trading / asset management platforms and let's insist on that, is working like hell so that every side of it's concept benefit all parties. It then becomes a win-win-win (traders-investors-Darwinex) situation that is addressed everyday. Although everything does not look always perfect it's only because some decisions have to be made and will never satisfy everyone and all needs (that's a fact, bear with it) but honestly, the moves taken are all very coherent altogether when you look at the big picture. In the end, I don't see which alternative service you could think of to provide a better offering. The gap is already too huge to notice so really, Darwinex should be encouraged, not bashed in an unfair manner. Let's be constructive instead.
@NapoleonDynamite what the hell do you mean bashed in an unfair manner? The advertising that Darwinex does is among the more deceptive and misrepresenting that I've seen in the social trading area. What's worse, it's coming from someone who claimed to the moral high ground. Firstly, that there's no 1.5M/month to talk about - you can plainly see even now when publicly challenged, how Juan dances around the notions and doesn't answer straight. Secondly, it's not allocated for 6 months as the ad states, now he claims they withdraw the allocations (totally nontransparent) from those who are losing. So what happened with 'we put our money where our mouth is' 'best traders detected by our algos' and all that?
I've been raising the issue with them since February, privately and on their blog, hey guys what are you doing, you're losing (a lot of) money with this game of yours that was supposed to show how good your algos are. And never once did Juan or anyone else from Darwinex told me: hey man, chill, this is virtual money, we're not actually losing. So much for transparency and respect toward a concerned customer.
You want constructive talking? Juan told me privately he doesn't take advice not from me (I'm ok with that, never claimed to be the smartest in the room) not from anyone else (the arrogance!!) So all this superficial politeness, we encourage talk, bla bla, is for us to waste time and give the appearance we count.
@JLTrader I'd appreciate if you could please keep the tone moderate.
Again, it is NOT virtual money. When you open a 1lot trade a trade with your 10k account, you are opening a REAL lot with 1:100 leverage.
You have gone too far. You have made your point, there is no need to attack anyone personally.
In the opposite, I think Juan put a well-rounded answer here while he could have rejected all allegations or just avoid. When you run a business and especially at start, not everything can be black & white per say so I will never accuse Darwinex to leverage their own tactic especially within those boundaries which remain absolutely moral.
To me, this remains a minor issue and I must disagree. I am very much after responsability and of course I can foresee when the limits are crossed or pushed and we are probably a few ones who guessed from the start because it made sense (margin trading is a reality in everyday operations) but I'd rather say the advertising is a matter of interpretration considering what it's about and the fallacy level is non-existent to me.
Let it be very clear: I'd rather have DarwinIA allocate $15M on leverage tommorrow than $150k unleveraged if they believe that from a risk/reward or even business perspective it is worth it and they are ready to sustain it. We have grown to almost three times the inital prizes pool now. That's an evolution, not the contrary, because we are not here to play with pocket money in the long term. Darwinex needs some convincing and that's a great way to achieve before the "natural AUMs" rise while waiting from external investments to another level.
What are you trying to achieve as a positive outcome for all of us exactly ?
What I wanted to achieve is, as the title of this thread states, clarification regarding the funding of DarwinIA. If you and other people are happy with nontransparent backroom dealings of leveraged money (to give satisfaction to Ignacio) advertised to appear as actual millions, then ok. Each to its own.
Let me tell you a story about Currensee which was then owned by Oanda before disappearing.
On the main page they were advertising for positive results of the whole portofolio of their 20 or so trade leaders.
For weeks on an ongoing basis, I noted the results carefully and revealed the biggest lie.
- instead, the new traders were counted for their backtest results that were never backed up by real money from investors.
This is what I do call a trick that goes far to mislead the public into something that is not.
Darwinex, untill proven by A+B is not playing in this league of playing fools and we should be content about it. Even it seems Darwinex was considered when Currensee's limits were admitted because it was providing a very basic and minimalist approach that could be improved. Darwinex has reinvented about everything in a creative way to an extent that cannot be summed up into a few lines.
I remember Currensee - it was a bad platform, no surprise that it was closed. But when I look at how DarwinIA is advertised, with the kind of 'traders' that received money ... even with the currently top ones, the allocations they were part of lost money. So it's like me investing in 16 stocks (DARWINs), losing money overall but profiting on 3 of them..and then showing off what good stock picker I am.
No one has showed off about DarwinIA's results. It is a marketing tool to attract good traders and hence solve the chicken-egg situation in traders' and investors' benefit (and ours, of course).
We measure the returns of DarwinIA in terms of good traders it has attracted (again, in everyone's benefit).
There is only so much Darwinex has control over.
How can they be accountable for which traders arrive and stay on the platform at this stage ? We exited from Beta in december 2015 !
To me, DarwinIA first and foremost shows that technically and as a promotion tool : it works !
-Why they invest in only the best traders? (The best of the best).
-Why do they not invest in traders who know they have no real chance of winning the next month?
-Why they only invest 1.5M in the top 40 traders, and not 10M in 100 worst traders? (In this way they would have much more publicity from users happy because they have invested in them).
By the way, once they have invested in your strategy? What is your return?
I think if Darwinex would have assigned to you 20,000 € (virtual), you'd tell everyone fast. While you lose, Darwinex would have free advertising, that is unfair advertising.
-Why they invest 100.000€ in @KlondikeFX? Do you think they like to spend thousands of euros per month with Klondike (and other good traders) just for advertising?
How did you establish that they invest in best of the best? By looking at the Hall of Fame and calculating the returns of completed allocations, I conclude that this isn't the case.
I didn't join Darwinex to chase 20k or 100k allocations for 6 months. Or to take part in a game. Some did, and apparently you are one of those. I joined with the expectation that if I build a good enough track-record, I could market it to investors. I joined because I thought it was a platform for serious traders that target serious investors.
Well said. It seems there is still space in the FinTech market for a "hedge fund platform in the cloud" then. Clearly, this is much harder to implement than we thought.
You joined Darwinex with the expectation that you could build a good enough track-record, you were wrong, you have a bad track record, so you can't market it to investors.
You joined because you thought it was a platform for serious traders & investors and you think is not serious, you are wrong again, is a serious platform.
If you didn't joined Darwinex to chase allocations, I don't know why you are so angry about the "unfair marketing", maybe if you were here for this, and you discovered that is not as you thought, your posts would have a little of logic.
If nobody is investing in your strategy, don't pay it with the platform.
. I joined with the expectation that if I build a good enough track-record, I could market it to investors. I joined because I thought it was a platform for serious traders that target serious investors.
Serious investors will look further than Darwinia results.
That is just a small part of what is a hugely valuable resource.
If you build a good track record and prove yourself a good trader, investors will find you.
I find it strange to have to defend myself here in front of an anonymous guy, so consider this my last post addressed to you: if I didn't believe in the project that Darwinex sold, I wouldn't have spent so much time interacting with them and promoting the cause.If I was into playing games and chasing allocations as you imply, I would've just put 20 EAs on a $100 account each and kept my fingers crossed.
The portfolio of Darwinia winners is composed by around 60 darwins, so the overrall var is very low, lower than DWEX probably, so they can increase the leverage of darwins by x3 for example.
So 3 milions are needed and not 9, it would be good to disclose the winners portfolio and his performance, it can be also an example for investors.
Calm guys, I personally imagined something but personally I do not care if demo or real money, in part Because When I was entering in darwinex there was not DarminiA. Is not bad idea to pay trader with money instead of spending on advertising than 99% will not have any effect. I give my point for Darwinia and hope to continue long time.
Ok but if the selection works, and IMO works, it makes sense to invest, if it is leveraged they can write it, and it will give more credibility to the whole thing. It is good as incentive and also as investment.
I just created a demo portfolio replicating the current 40 winners with the same proportion of capital.
VAR is only 6,6% so there is a big margin to leverage.
I would make 500k x3 , so 60% var on single darwins and 19% of the portfolio.

Bohemian Rhapsody was one of the big winners of the Golden Globes but turns out it’s actually one of the only movies to win a major award with such a low Rotten Tomatoes score.
The film has a score on the site of 62% which makes it the 8th worst reviewed film to win a Golden Globe for best picture.
The worst is the 1974 remake of A Star Is Born along with Richard Burton’s The Robe and Alec Guinness’ A Majority Of One.
If films before 2000 are ignored – older films tend not to have the same amount of reviews online – then Bohemian Rhapsody is the Golden Globe winner with the lowest tomatometer rating, including musical and comedy winners.
The film, starring Rami Malek and a biopic of Queen frontman Freddie Mercury, swept best actor and best motion picture – drama.
The film has been a box office success with audiences around the world although critically it didn’t perform as well, with many uncomfortable with the film’s apparent straight-washing of Freddie Mercury.

ANKARA, July 9 (Reuters) - Turkey on Monday removed a clause that stipulated a five-year term for the central bank governor, making the changes in an emergency decree published shortly before President Tayyip Erdogan took oath for his new presidential term.
The decree, published in the government’s Official Gazette, removed a clause that had stated: “The governor is appointed by a cabinet decision for a term of five years. (The governor) can be re-appointed at the end of this period”.

L-365 is a heavy duty liquid alkaline cleaner formulated to be used on most ferrous and nonferrous metals. It is a blend of potent wetting and dispersing agents meticulously combined with a highly refined alkaline build. Together they effectively penetrate and remove a wide range of oily soils and promote optimum metal finishes.
For tumbling and vibratory finishing operations use 1/2 to 1 ounce per gallon of water. For Automated spray application parts washers use 1 to 2 ounces per gallon of water. Agitated and ultra sonic soak tanks use 1 to 3 ounces per gallon of water. Parts washers should maintain operating temperatures between 100° and 130° F. to maintain optimum cleaning and foaming characteristics. Due to the fact that this is a very highly concentrated product, using higher than recommended product concentrations may decrease cleaning efficiency rather than improve it. Consult your representative for specific recommendations.
This product does not pose any fire hazards. L-365 is an alkaline product. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. In case of skin contact, flush with water for 15 minutes and consult physician if irritation develops. In case of eye contact, flush eyes with plenty of water for a least 15 minutes and consult physician. Use good industrial hygiene practices such as wearing chemical safety glasses, rubber gloves, impermeable apron and other appropriate protective clothing. Store product in tightly closed containers between 50° and 85° F. Rotate stock. When stored as stated above, shelf life is a minimum of 2 years.

With Bat-Fleck controversy flying across the interwebs, celebrity friends and supporters of the entertainment industry have stuck their neck out to give Ben Affleck defense. One such man has remained quiet up until now about the major casting, and it’s about damn time we hear from him.
While doing an interview in India for his film Elysium, Matt Damon–Ben Affleck’s best friend and writing partner of Good Will Hunting– finally had this to say about his friend playing Bruce Wayne.
Part of me finds it humorous how much Damon is downplaying the effort that goes into tackling the caped crusader. That being said, I like the respect he gives to handling the role of Bruce Wayne, which I agree may be where Affleck is going to shine brightest.
Batman Vs. Superman will hit theaters in 2015, and will not feature Matt Damon as Robin.

As people's lives go on, there are certain milestones that are sort of expected to occur, and that a person would usually strive for. For example, children start the journey with the school phase, then there is high school, probably followed by college, and after that come a career. There is also the family aspect of it, as well as traveling goals. The age of 35 is a good time for a person to take a look back on their achievements.
If data for American citizens is taken into consideration, one could note how things are standing for the average 35-year old regarding several aspects of their lives. Society, for better or worse, sets up certain expectations for certain times of people's lives, and whether these expectations tend to be met or not, concerning the average person living in America, is a question that some data results could try to answer.
Back in June 2016, the United States Census Bureau provided a comparison between 30-Year-Olds in the year 1975 and people from the same age group in 2015 and how their achievements measured up in different categories. One stat showed that: "In 1975, nearly 3 in 4 30-year-olds had married, had a child, were not enrolled in school, and lived on their own. In 2015, just 1 in 3 30-year-olds have these characteristics."
The United States Census Bureau also provided a more detailed comparison which showed that 99% of 30-year-olds in 1975 were not enrolled in school, 90% of them lived on their own, 89% had ever married, and 76% were living with a child. In addition, 80% at least had a high school diploma, 71% were in the labor force, 71% had a moderate income and 56% of them owned a home.
Regarding the 30-year-olds in 2015, the results were as follows - 92% were not enrolled in school, 70% of them lived on their own, 57% had ever married, and 47% were living with a child. Furthermore, 90% at least had a high school diploma, 81% were in the labor force, 55% had a moderate income and only 33% of them owned a home. In other words, more people have earned at least a high school diploma but fewer are earning a moderate income.
As far as other statistics are concerned, here is how the things go for the average American men and women: the usual age for getting married is 27 for women and 29 for men, and women also tend to have their first child by the age of 28. Both genders often own a home by the age of 35, and their average salary shows to be that of 49,400 dollars which translates to approximately 950 dollars a week.
Excluding home equity, the typical net worth that Americans have at the age of 35 is 14,226 dollars, however, this also leads to bigger debts, and the usual situation for a 35-year-old is to be in debt for up to 133,100 dollars. Regarding their careers, what's common is that a person has been through 11 jobs by their 35th birthday. This fact may offer some relief for those who may feel uneasy about going through the process of constantly changing jobs.

A wonderful overview of the existing neural network architectures and their features.
Twitter presents a Reinforcement Learning framework with minimal dependencies.
Large badges in stochastic gradient descent have been shown to lead to poorer generalization, this paper demonstrates that this behavior is due to the fact that large badges tend to converge to sharp minima (strongly unique local minima), whereas methods consistently converge to flat minimizers.
This paper demonstrates an elegant approch to decoupling the weights used in error backpropagation to the ones used to propagate the activation forward. The paper argues that this is a step towards biologically plausible machine learning because the error signal is almost local, and no symmetric or reciprocal weights are required.

Breathtaking Faroes island in one wedding day after session.
Majestic views from one blogger who explored Faroes island in one of his travels.
Faroes Island is part of Denmark, the islands are situated between Iceland and Norway. It is surrounded with the majestic green mountains.
Faroes island, is an island situated between Iceland and Norway. With its almost 50,000 population as of year 2016, scarcity of women dropped to 2000 less than men. Men who are anxious of getting married has one big problem, not finances but women. To the men of this island they are seeking wives from the likes of the Philippines and other Southeast Asian countries.
Ways of the Faroese men to widen their search for romantic relationship are getting into into online dating, social media , and some are clinging to their own relatives who are married to foreigners.
One reason of the number of Faroese women depletion is that is in search of education, and eventually not returning. Most of the ones who left are settling abroad, according to Prime Minister Axel Johannesen.
It is believed for the tourist and first timer, culture shock is significant.
In contrary, Antonette Egholm, originally from the Philippines, told Tim Ecott of BBC about her experience of moving to Faroe, she believed that she hasn’t encountered any racism issues.
Kirkjan á Kirkju - The Church of Kirkja, Fugloy, Faroe Islands People have been moving away from this island, just like they have from other small islands. The population was only 38,000 in the beginning of 2010.
She said “People here are friendly,” she explains, adding that, “I’ve never experienced any negative reactions to my being a foreigner. I lived in Metro Manila and there we worried about traffic and pollution and crime. Here we don’t need to worry about locking the house, and things like healthcare and education are free. At home we have to pay. And here you can just call spontaneously at someone’s house, it’s not formal. For me, it feels like the Philippines in that way.” which is also supported by her husband Regin.
Their relationship was not as easy as it was thought because sometimes they experienced jokes from his friends that what they have had started from a “mail order bride” site. Regin denied it.
Until Jan knew that she would cope up.

You’ve heard the stories of eager college graduates applying for their first post-baccalaureate jobs. They have the grades, they have the knowledge, but they don’t have “at least three years of experience” working in their field. Disheartening, right?
The cost of higher education is an issue, and one the University of Missouri-Kansas City is addressing.
As part of the four-campus University of Missouri System, UMKC has had one of the lowest rates of tuition increase in the U.S. during the past decade. And despite this year’s tuition increase of 1 percent, efforts to keep the overall cost of education are continuing, and are working.
A team of astronomers including Mark Brodwin, assistant professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, have discovered a surprising connection between a supermassive black hole and the galaxy in which it resides.

The UNESCO application focused on Kansas City’s jazz history and current music scene.
Pulitzer Prize-nominated poet and University of Missouri-Kansas City English Professor Michelle Boisseau died Nov. 15 at her home in Kansas City.
Did Nazis fall in love?
Of course they did, though it may be hard to associate the idea of that emotion with a society that committed human atrocities. But as the Third Reich was rising, individuals in Germany fell in love with each other just like people all over the world fall in love every day.
The University of Missouri-Kansas City has announced that is expanding its internship program with the Heartland Black Chamber of Commerce, formerly known as the Kansas Black Chamber of Commerce.

Prisoners prepare their own meals, wear their own clothes and leave each day. It’s led to lower recidivism.
The most interesting thing about Scandinavian prisons? Many are barely prisons at all.
Our research team spent six weeks conducting intensive research in Danish prisons. We were struck by the sight of prisoners wearing their own clothes, cooking their own meals and having private family visits as often as once a week. At these “open” prisons, there are no barbed wire fences, solid walls with gun towers or secure perimeters.

As an artist known for making impressively scaled signs and combining hip-hop symbols with references to Christianity — Google him and his brilliant Prayer Booths still come up first — Dylan Mortimer has always made personal art. But his latest exhibition transcends the personal for something revelatory. Cure is his externalized dialogue with God, one in which he attempts to lay out the terms of his genetic lot, his cystic fibrosis.
Congratulations to Dr. Rebecca (Mowry) Egli on receiving a post-doctoral Residential Fellowship at Linda Hall Library. During her two-month stay, she will conduct research for her current project, “Seeds of Misfortune: Food, Crop Diversity, and the Simplification of American Nature,” a history of America’s plant explorers that examines the impact of plant introduction and breeding on agricultural biodiversity and innovation.
Rebecca grew up in Kansas City and received her Bachelor of Arts degree from UMKC’s History Department in 2008. She earned a Master of Arts degree in history from King’s College London in 2010 and a doctorate in history from the University of California, Davis in 2018.
Exploring intersections between agriculture, science, and the environment, her dissertation, “The World of Our Dreams: Agricultural Explorers and the Promise of American Science,” looks at federal scientists in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, exploring developments in plant biology and the ecological consequences of importing non-native plants into the United States.
We are so proud to have Dr. Egli conducting research again in Kansas City!

Congratulations to K. David Hanzlick, alumnus of the History iPhD program, on the publication of his book, Benevolence, Moral Reform, Equality: Women’s Activism in Kansas City, 1870-1940, with the University of Missouri Press.
Hanzlick traces the rise and evolution of women’s activism in a rapidly growing, Midwestern border city, one deeply scarred by the Civil War and struggling to determine its meaning. Over the course of 70 years, women in Kansas City emerged from the domestic sphere by forming and working in female-led organizations to provide charitable relief, reform society’s ills, and ultimately claim space for themselves as full participants in the American polity. Focusing on the social construction of gender, class, and race, and the influence of political philosophy in shaping responses to poverty, Hanzlick also considers the ways in which city politics shaped the interactions of local activist women with national women’s groups and male-led organizations.
K. David Hanzlick is Director of Program and Development for Sheffield Place, a treatment and transitional living program for homeless mothers and children. He also serves as an adjunct faculty member in the Nonprofit Leadership Program at Rockhurst University and the Hauptmann School of Public Affairs at Park University.

Lucite Plains is a new performance collaboration between Kansas City-based artists and UMKC professors Ricky Allman and Barry Anderson. Combing elements of Allman’s paintings and installations with Anderson’s work in video and animation, and adding music composed for analog synthesizers and guitars, the performances create a psychedelic futurist experience. The concept came from a melding of themes they have been working on individually for the past few years including eco-futurism, geological ritualism, ancient mythology and retro utopian visions.
For their first extended performance residency, they will be presenting a series of seven events October 19-21 at SubTropolis as part of Open Spaces where they will be joined by guest musician, artist, and fellow UMKC colleague Davin Watne.

“I don’t believe in the apocalypse of humanity; despite all our problems, we’re definitely going to figure out our way,” Allman says.
Stephanie Kelton has been an economics professor at UMKC since 1999. She is a self-described “deficit owl” who supported larger budget deficits to counteract the recent recession.

Science, art, technology, history, space. Bill Ashworth wants to know about everything.
If you’re curious, there are many things that Bill Ashworth wants you to know.
But here’s the main thing: Learning is fun.
That optimistic aphorism is more than a casual one to Ashworth and his devoted admirers, who delight in the local educator’s indefatigable interest in not only his chosen academic field—the history of science—but anything else that might tickle his circuitously inquisitive mind.
It’s obvious that jail isn’t good for the jailed. It may be particularly bad for people accused of minor crimes, who are confined not because they are likely to be dangerous but because, under our cash-bail system, they can’t afford to get out. Think of the appalling case of Kalief Browder, the Bronx teenager who was profiled by my colleague Jennifer Gonnerman, in 2014. He was charged with stealing a backpack and spent three years at Rikers Island awaiting trial. Two years after the trial was dismissed and he was released, Browder killed himself.
Managing budgets, hiring faculty, recruiting students, setting academic policy…the life of a university dean is a high-stress job. How do you decompress?
For one dean, it’s calling fouls on the court.

Who Has the Candidate’s Ear?
What does a presidential candidate’s choice of advisers tell us about the candidate?
A deep bench of experienced advisers is essential for any president — to provide policy guidance, a sounding board, intellectual ballast and, eventually, help in translating ideas into action. But the people selected say much about the candidates themselves — their intellectual rigor, their willingness to entertain fresh views, the value they place on experience.
Zippia ranks CAS’s Economics Department as #1 in their “These are the 10 best Colleges for Economics Majors in Missouri” article.
You know there are a ton of great reasons to major in economics — the job prospects, the intellectual challenge, and the chance to follow in the footsteps of some of the greatest thinkers of all time.
But what program in Missouri offers the most to would be economics majors?

For the past few months I've been going through the dilemma of what direction I want my blog to take. I don't want to stop blogging, but I've found that I really don't have the time or inclination to keep up with it like I used to, and I needed to find a way to make it work better for me.
And after much thought, I've decided that really simplifying the whole process would be best, and that I would like to move it over to tumblr. I like that it is easier to access and update tumblr through the mobile app, and that it encourages microblogging and also makes it easier to keep up with blogs through the app. I will miss using blogger because it has so many more features, but I'm really hoping that the tumblr interface will keep me motivated to blog. And it was also fun tweaking a new theme design. :) I keep tending towards a more minimalistic look and I really like the look of my tumblr page now.
Luckily I have my domain name, so I plan to point it towards the tumblr blog this Friday, and make the switch complete. If you're following me on bloglovin, I'm hoping that posts will continue to update there the same way. And I will keep this blogspot blog up for the sake of prosperity since it has about four years worth of posts and good times.
I imagine that my blog will be a bit different now - I'll post about more different things - movies, shows and life stuff - as well as book reviews. And I'll be continuing the Movie Musical Challenge over there too.
And if you are on tumblr, and I'm not following you, please let me know in the comments so I can remedy that!

Hydroponic gardening is growing plants without soil, in other words, the "garden dirtless." There are many methods of hydroponic gardening, most of which work better than regular soil gardening because it is easier to give the plant exactly what he needs when he needs it. The plants receive only what you give them, and therefore you will be able to regulate the pH, nutrients, nutrient strength, water and the amount of light. It is therefore imperative that you research the type of plants you will be more if you know what they need to survive.

NEED HELP SIZING A GENERATOR?
Sizing a Generator - How to Determine What Size You Need?
Getting a generator that can handle all your power generation needs is one of the most critical aspects of the purchasing decision. Whether you are interested in prime or standby power, if your new generator can't meet your specific requirements then it simply won't be doing anyone any good because it can put undue stress on the unit and even damage some of the devices connected to it. Unfortunately, determining exactly what size of generator to get is often very difficult and involves a number of factors and considerations. Making a choice amongst single phase, three phase, kW, KVA, welder, standby or motor starting generators can be mind-boggling. To prevent such confusion, this article was developed to help you get a better idea of how the sizing process works and some key things to keep in mind.
Generator Sizing - How Much Power?: Many people believe smaller generators can be used for standby electric power because they are not running all the time. This is not only a myth but can actually be very detrimental. Unfortunately, generator under sizing is one of the most common mistakes committed by buyers. Not only does it involve the risks of damaging your new asset (the generator), but it can also damage other assets connected to it, create hazardous situations, and even limit overall productivity of the unit and/or the business relying on it. If nothing else, the key thing to remember here is that more is always better than less.
How to Find the Starting and Running Wattage: Getting the right starting and running wattage of the devices you intend to power is crucial for calculating the accurate power requirements. Normally, you will find these in the identification plate or the owner's manual in the buyer's kit of each respective device, tool, appliance, or other electrical equipment.
Ampere - Watt Conversion: You may often find power requirements of tools stated in amperes. In order to convert the power requirement of a tool from ampere to watts, follow these calculations, or you can also use our handy conversion tool on our power calculator .
Power Requirement Charting: It often happens that you lose the owner's manual or for some reason can't find the power requirement specification of the tools and/or other electrical devices you're running. Here is a sample power consumption chart that demonstrates some of the typical wattages used for common appliances and tools. The chart is simply provided as an example to demonstrate how starting and running wattages differ, and how each device has specific consumption needs. If you have questions over any particular items you can contact us for a free consultation.

Let us assume the conventional wisdom on government bonds is true and that the United States and United Kingdom both offer a wide array of government and corporate bonds that represent safer and more stable investments while offering several different approaches for the investor.
If that is a given, is there any real difference between the two government ran bond programs? Yes and while both the US and UK markets have at least an element of gambling, while at the same time the very purpose of bonds is reducing risks to an absolute minimum. But the UK market seems to make up for that missing excitement by offering the buyer in a monthly lottery instead of paying interest.
If gambling is your cup of tea Premium Bonds would provide for that by offering a chance to win a million pounds as well as many other cash prizes. And naturally, or more accurately, mathematically, the more Premium Bonds a buyer has in the bond pool the better their chance of winning one of the cash prizes.
Where other UK bonds offer a wide variety of different time periods and interest rates there is no time limit on Premium Bonds or interest paid. Instead the buyers simply remain in the monthly drawings hoping to hit the million pound jackpot or one of the other million dollars with of smaller cash prizes.
Of course for those who prefer the lower risks as well as high fixed rate of interest the UK's National Savings & Investments program offers a variety of savings bonds available that insure there is something that will meet the needs and desires of investors. For many investors these benefits and security outweigh the disadvantages of restrictions, penalties, lower interest rates and smaller returns.
But when it is remembered bonds almost always repay their par value, many are tax free investments, and returns are virtually assured when the bonds are held to maturity, those advantages counter the disadvantages for those who have both the time and patience to make long term, and secure investments.
This site is fantastic. I generally find famous getting from it.
Hoping to hit the million pound jackpot or one of the other million dollars with of smaller cash prizes.
Superlative kind of forming that every new blogger tries to possess.

It's an experiment since I've never tried this before. Of course, each playthrough will be with one of the boys, so it's not a strictly "dating sim". More like a "marriage sim" though in one of the path you could pursue another person if you feel like playing dirty... oops I said too much!
Anyways back to the game, I made a list of titles I think are fun/nice. But as always I'm open to suggestions! I made a poll but if a better title comes from the thread I will consider that (like happened with Summer In Trigue or Heirs & Graces).
Re: Always Remember Me sequel name thread!

Don't never always forget to remember me.
Always Remember I had options..

Goa is one of the famous tourist destination and tourists want to visit there quite often. So, it is better to know the favourable time for the tourists before they visit there to explore Goa immensely.
This is the most hot and humid time in Goa. The Goa temperature starts rising at that time.The burning sun makes the sandy beaches hotter and the sea becomes rougher. At this time of the year you will not be able to experience any kind of sports or beach activities. But the hotel or the room rates slash down to a much lower level and you can enjoy discounts during that time.
This is the monsoon time and the rains hit the beaches of Goa. The monsoon turns the countryside of Goa in a lush greenery view. At that time you will be able to see many parties across the beaches of Goa.At the end of June Goa celebrates their festival Sao Joao which is the fertility feast of Saint John the Baptist. During this time it is very interesting to observe the rituals of the Goanese where the Goanese boy jumps into a bountiful well to fetch the bottles of local liquor known as feni.
These are the best months to visit Goa. The Goa weather is cool and comfortable at that time. It is also the best time to visit Goa for water sports. This is the festival season in Goa with Christmas and New year. Lakhs of tourists visit this time of the year. It is also said that it is the best time to visit Goa for honeymoon. It is the peak period and the room rates go higher so it is advisable to book your rooms much earlier.

Tata Motors much awaited lifestyle passenger vehicle, the new Tata Hexa, is finally here! The Tata Hexa Experience Centre at Gurugram started Yesterday i.e 25th and is going to end on 27th November, 2016.
Thanks to Tata Motors for giving me an opportunity to attend this awesome event. I drove Hexa and must say, it’s the best car Tata Motors has ever come up with. The Off Road Experience included various testing techniques which showed us what this beast is up to. Watch out this video below and get to know yourself how Power Packed Hexa is.
It will feature a new ‘Super Drive Modes’ system, to provide customers with a pleasurable, comfortable and dynamic driving experience.
This ‘Super Drive Modes’ system allows the driver to seamlessly switch between the four different driving modes – Auto, Comfort, Dynamic and Rough Road, for enhanced ride comfort & stability over different terrains. The new system, is a flawless combination of the vehicles Engine performance, new-generation Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Torque on Demand (TOD), Instrument Cluster displays & the vehicles ambient lighting, that can be activated through a well-placed rotary knob, on the center console.
Hexa goes at 100 kmph in just 8 seconds and gives a top speed of 197 kmph. The safety of passengers has been taken care of. It has 6 Airbags and breaking system is also powerful.
If you are a music lover, you would love the music system which Hexa has. It has got 10 Speakers which includes 2 tweeters and one sub woofer.
It also has Mood Lightening which makes Hexa a really beautiful car from inside with soft colours splashing all over.
The exterior as well as interior of the car is dashing. With astounding sound quality, it has a touchscreen display which gives you access to navigation, Bluetooth music play, and a lot more features. It has a AUX port as well as iPod connection port. A 12V socket is available to connect your charger or any other gadget! Keeping it simple and sober, the interior was quite good. The only thing i didn’t like was the space in dashboard which was too small.
Purab Kohli was there to make this event even more energetic. He performed each and every test with Hexa and it was good to see that he’s an amazing driver. Watch out the video below and see what were his views after driving the vehicle.
The Suryansh Project Band was there to entertain us with songs all the time. I have met them before too in some events and these four guys are really superb! We were having a great Magician there, Karan Khanna who showed us some cool tricks. And you know what, he has his name in the Guinness book of records.
RJ Simran from 92.7 Big FM was live from the event and yes, I was too. Me with fellow Bloggers, shared our experience about the event. Purab Kohli was also live on Big 92.7 FM with RJ Simran. I also had a word with Purab Kohli and he is such a nice person. He has such a good personality and soft nature.
Good job, Mridul! Great work.
Spot up for this write-up, I truly believe this internet web site requirements a great deal more consideration. I’ll likely to end up once again to read a good deal far more, a lot of thanks for that data.
You’d outstanding guidelines there. I did a search about the field and identified that quite likely the majority will agree with your internet page.
Lovely pics. Must say this one is surely an amazing car. 10 speakers is just wow ?? cannot view the video ?
Thanks for your kind words. Sorry for the video, Some issues.
Great car with really nice features.

June 2010 marked the 10th Anniversary of the foundation meeting of the International Society for Equity in Health (ISEqH). The formation of the Society was a bold statement, with ambitions to be a global body "to promote equity in health and health services internationally through education, research, publication, communication and charitable support". The Society particularly aimed to be an organisation that facilitated research on how better to understand and address inequities in health. The main activities of the Society have been a series of biannual conferences as well as the establishment of the International Journal for Equity in Health, the official (but independent) publication of the Society. This paper sets out to record some of the milestones of the Society drawing on the reflections of key researchers who attended the conferences as well as others. The history of the Society will help shape its future and how it responds to important issues facing all interested in global efforts to address continuing and unacceptable inequities in health.
The first meeting was important in setting the tone of the Society. The late 1990s saw a world-wide renaissance in attention to the socio-economic determinants of health and the sources of unjust differences in health outcomes. It was in the context of this growing evidence that Barbara Starfield approached colleagues in 1999 seeking help in establishing a global organisation devoted to the science of health equity, reasoning that international societies existed for health economics, medical services and public health, but not equity.
Together with Jose Maria Paganini from Argentina, Barbara had been working on the formation of the society for 3 years, approaching others with an aim of using science to address inequitable health status. Jane Dixon (co-ordinator of the Australian Health Inequalities Research Collaboration) provided early assistance in crafting an interim constitution for the Society appealing to an international membership and potential donors. These early efforts were successful in attracting grants to support the first conference, especially the participation of developing world delegates.
In light of a US trade embargo and its international endorsement, the decision to hold the first conference in Cuba was both bold and controversial, but it made enormous sense given the country's reputation for running a First World health and education system, and with health outcomes and health differences the envy of many OECD countries. Cuba exemplified the evidence of the time that per capita income of US$2500 was sufficient to provide good health status and that anything more than this provided only marginal improvements.
The inaugural conference was held in Havana in June, 2000. 210 people attended, coming from 32 countries. One third of delegates came from the US, while Argentina and Australia had 26 and 20 delegates respectively. Sizable contingents came from Sweden and the United Kingdom.
For most participants, the prospect of the meeting was enormously exciting: the majority had not been to Cuba before and mystery surrounded its somewhat demonic reputation (particularly in the US) on the one hand and its excellent health system on the other;. The pre-conference field trips to primary health care and clinical settings provided vivid illustrations of a sophisticated health strategy; walking through the old city full of derelict housing were good reminders of the effect of the US embargo.
A Scientific Committee of 20 researchers was appointed spanning Taiwan, Trinidad, India, Mexico, South Africa, the Netherlands and others, The first conference was a success: membership doubled in 18 months from an initial 125 people in 2000. That meant membership fees could augment the halving of Foundation grants (the first Budget tabled in Cuba showed these amounted to $110,000). The Argentinean Society of Physicians offered to continue to host the secretariat and three newsletters were issued in and around the first conference. To ensure good communications in the lead up to the next conference planned for Toronto, the location of a small part-time secretariat to assist the committee shifted in 2001 to that city and continued to work to support the organisation over the past decade.
Subsequent conferences were held in Toronto (2002), Durban (2004), Adelaide (2006) and Crete (2009). The Toronto Conference had the theme "Research in the Service of Policy and Advocacy for Health and Health Services". Key international health equity researchers attended form developed and developing economies. The Conference also aimed to facilitate the development of a Canadian Health Equity Network. In Durban the conference had a theme of Pathways to Equity in Health: Using Research for Policy and Advocacy. The conference brought together participants from more than 50 countries from six continents. Importantly, the conference was book-ended by regional meetings of the convening organisations, GEGA (the Global Equity Gauge Alliance) and EQUINET (the Regional Network for Equity in Health in Southern Africa), allowing participants to attend all three conferences and a variety of workshops over a 9 day period. This highly effective collaboration strengthened synergy and cross-cultural understanding of challenges and strategies among researchers, policy makers and managers. The high level of participation by African researchers and students was not only a result of the location of the conference but also of strong cooperation between the hosting organizations to maximize the equitable distribution of funds to participants. Over 40 low- and middle-income countries were represented among participants, including over a dozen African countries.
The 2006 Conference in Adelaide had the theme of "Creating Healthy Societies through Inclusion and Equity". It attracted over 230 participants from more than 35 countries. Indigenous health was a major focus of the conference and a second complementary theme examined the use of arts and community cultural development in promoting health and equitable outcomes. The Scientific Committee included strong representation from Indigenous, Maori and Pacific health researchers. Again low to middle income countries were well represented with 37 countries represented and approximately 40% of the presenters coming from low-to-middle income countries. There were over 25 presentations on Aboriginal health as well as a full-day workshop on Indigenous Health. The conference brought together a diverse set of researchers, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous, community health practitioners, including traditional medicine practitioners, community leaders, artists, and policymakers.
In 2009 a conference was held in Crete. Sponsored by the Greek School of Public Health in partnership with the Canadian Society for International Health, the organisers had initially found it difficult to attract funding and this significantly reduced the number of participants from low and middle income countries. This experience highlighted the importance of a strong organising committee with local knowledge and the importance of providing basic support for meals and travel if a broad base of researchers is to be attracted.
Challenges for a small society organising global meetings have been in maintaining a high level of academic scholarship, but also in moving from descriptive research to more normative research around policy analysis, advocacy needs and strategies cooperative planning and intervention research. Despite these challenges the meetings have been important networking opportunities for furthering research in the area of equity in health. The development and launching of the World Health Organisation (WHO) Commission on Social Determinants of Health (CSDH) and the 2008 release of the WHO report on Primary Health Care provided an exciting context for the latest meeting, raising hopes of action on health equity in a practical sense through governmental and non-governmental policy and action. WHO used the conferences as one means to publicise the planning and then work of the CSDH.
Formation of the International Journal for Equity in Health has been a critical linked activity, keeping alive the aims of the society. Nevertheless this has not been without challenges. Shortly after the formation of the International Society for Equity in Health, Fiona Godlee (who had been with the British Medical Journal and who had recently participated in the development of the open-access Biomedical Central (BMC) journals) approached Barbara Starfield with the idea to develop a journal devoted to equity in health. At the initiation of BMC, access to articles would be free on the web and without any charge to authors. The invitation was irresistible because it was consistent with the mission of the society, which was primarily to encourage research in equity in health among individuals without previous experience in this area, and from researchers and countries underrepresented in other journals. Free access to publication by new researchers as well as free access to readers (to foster the spread of knowledge about equity in health) seemed to be just what the Society needed. Unfortunately, shortly after the formation of the journal, the for-profit publisher instituted author charges, thus undermining the goal of increasing access to publication by new researchers who had less ability than grant-supported researchers to pay for their publications. It also compromised the journal's ability to attract publications from more seasoned and well-known researchers who are able to publish their work in more prestigious journals at no cost. The editors were able to negotiate for a small proportion of accepted papers to be exempt from author charges because the authors were from low income countries, but the policy of charging for publication acted as a barrier.
Despite limitations (limited editorial staff and heavy workload recruiting reviewers which precluded more proactive development), the journal has continued to grow and receive attention in the field of equity in health. The review process is rigorous, involving at least two peer reviewers as well as editorial input into decisions and revision and acceptance of papers. In the approximately ten years of its existence, the number of submissions and acceptances has grown steadily. At the present time, about 57% of submitted articles are accepted; this relatively high rate reflects a very active peer reviewer/author interaction as the goal is to work with authors to revise papers until they are acceptable for publication. Of the ten most cited papers during April 2010 (the latest data available), 6 were from developing countries. The high salience of the work is evident from the number of publications that continue to be cited even years after their publication; in April 2010, two of the ten most cited papers were published before 2007. As of 2011, the journal will be fully included in all impact rating systems, which only occurs when a journal has sufficient peer-reviewed publications to merit such ratings. Preliminary impact ratings for the journal are approximately the same as those for similar (health services research) BMC journals. This inclusion in the impact rating system has occurred while the journal has continued to maintain wide representation from non-Western countries.
The focus for the journal will continue to be in encouraging the publication of health equity research, particularly with authors from countries under-represented in equity research publications. The editorial group hopes to find a way carry out even more innovative activities than has been possible under very constrained conditions.
The energy of the early conferences and the achievements of the journal in its short life are to be celebrated and nurtured. The conferences have provided a meeting point where most of the key researchers in health equity from across the world have attended at some time. In particular the conferences and the journal have both provided a voice to researchers from low and middle income countries, giving life and embodiment to the values of inclusion, action-based research, research-to-policy processes, and the vital role of civil society in strengthening action for health equity.
The importance of achieving health equity has been placed firmly on international agenda by the publication in 2008 of the report of the Commission on the Social Determinants of Health. The Commission was able to draw on the expertise of members of ISEqH through the work of its nine knowledge networks. Implementation of the CSDH's findings will continue to need the support of societies such as ISEqH.
Despite this international context the society and journal both face challenges, not least the constant need to raise funds in a tightening philanthropic and Government climate. Without funds the society and journal continue to rely on the freely given time of a small number of individuals. Marrying diverse perspectives and articulating a common purpose and vision is a challenge for any group with a global base and mission. This is particularly so for a member based organisation in an era of many public health societies, all of which make demands of time and money on members. Nevertheless the global perspective of the Society remains a core value.
Ten years on, much has been achieved. The Society has played a role in supporting the wider group of researchers, policymakers and practitioners with a commitment to social justice and equity. There is still more to do. The current Board has expressed interest in focusing on building research capacity in low and middle income countries in the next two years. The Society is particularly keen on ensuring that health reform is closely linked to a focus on equity. The sixth International Conference of the Society is planned for Sept 26-28 in Cartagena Colombia and will have as a theme "Making policy a health equity building process".
EH conceived of the paper. All authors contributed sections to the paper. All authors read and approved the final version.

In stock 120 items in stock.
Each LED in the pack sits upon an aluminum backed PCB to help with heat dissipation and emits a deep blue light. Additionally, each LED requires a forward voltage of 3.2-3.8V at 750mA.
There are nice and bright I'm going to put 3 in series off a FemtoBuck to identify a target to shoot at for hockey. Is there any connector that can be soldered on or just have to solder wire directly to the pads?
I had a blast doing thing with the green luxeon rebel LEDs, how do these compare?
I had hard time soldering these. Any hints for the future? I found I had to apply a lot more flux than in the past. My temp was 750 F. I was using flux core solder about .032".
Hey! wait a minute, if the Rebel LEDs were like five bucks just for the LED, and these are eight bucks for 5 LEDs and carrier boards, I'd really love to know how they compare?
...I didn't really want my retinas anyway.
