Dr. Nicolae Ghinae will talk about his recent work on a universal tumor marker and its possibilities for detecting and treating tumor growth. The follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is a key hormone in mammalian reproductive function. In adult humans, the FSH receptor protein is not expressed in most normal tissues except those of the cells of the ovary, the testis and some minimal expression in endothelial cells of blood vessels. Recent work from researchers at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and the National Institute of Health and Medical Research (INSERM) in France led by Dr. Nicolae Ghinea, found elevated levels of the FSH receptor protein in endothelial cells of tissue samples from a variety of cancer types including prostate, breast, colon, pancreatic, bladder, kidney, lung, liver, stomach, testicular and ovarian, regardless of the type or stage of the growth. By contrast, this receptor is virtually absent in the other normal tissues, including the normal tissue of the organs from which the tumors originated. The FSH receptors appear to accumulate on the blood vessels in the tumor. At TRON, Dr. Ghinae will present methods for the tracking this receptor as a cancer marker and its potential use to target therapies and inhibit tumor growth.
Doctor Ghinea is INSERM Research Director of Unit 955 at Institut Mondor de Recherche Biomédicale (IMRB). | 2019-04-26T10:11:12 | http://tron-mainz.de/blog/2011/10/27/tron-seminar-in-translational-oncology-ghinae/ |
Changing your gender on your Florida driver license can be a little confusing. That’s why we’ve compiled all the information you need right here!
If you’re living in Florida and want to change your gender and/or your name on your driver license, make sure to read this information carefully. We at Aceable know transitioning is one of the bravest, most important decisions you’ll ever make. We are so excited for you and this step you’re taking ,and we want to help! Changing your gender on your driver license is a big part of this process and we know it can be a little confusing. That’s why we’ve compiled all the information you need right here as part of our Florida DMV guide!
Previously, Florida residents who wanted to change the gender on their driver license were required to provide documentation that they had undergone sexual reassignment surgery. However, in 2011, the process was changed and the requirements began to follow standards established by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), recognized as the authority in this field by the American Medical Association.
Residents requesting a gender that is different from what currently appears on their driver license must provide a signed original statement on office letterhead from their medical physician. The medical physician can be an internist, endocrinologist, gynecologist, urologist, or psychologist/psychiatrist.
So, to change your driver license gender, that’s all you need! To change your name in addition to your gender, you’ll need to take a few extra steps.
Before you can change your name on your license, you have to first change it on your Social Security Card. You’ll need to report your name change to the Social Security Administration (SSA) before you change it with the Florida DHSMV and the Division of Driver Licenses because the FL DHSMV must be able to verify your Social Security number.
You can change your name with the SSA either in person or by mail. Sadly, you can’t change it online. Ugh. And don’t worry, you won’t have to memorize a new Social Security number; that won’t change.
When you realize you don't have to memorize a new Social Security number.
All documents must be originals or certified copies. Visit the SSA website for a complete list of accepted documents .
All this proving got you like. ?
After you change your name with the SSA, you have 10 (I repeat, 10) days to update it on your Florida driver license. You can only change your name in person. You can not apply for a name change online, by mail, or over the phone.
Just in case you already forgot. TEN DAYS!
All documents must be originals or certified copies. For a complete list of accepted documents, visit the FL GatherGoGet website. The FL Division of Driver Licenses will issue you a new Florida driver license or identification card.
There you go, friend. That’s all you need to know to go take care of business.
Best of luck from your Aceable fam!

The Paraguayan Government has about 6.4 million dollars (40,000 million guaranies) to assist, until now, 20,400 families affected throughout the country by the flooding of the Paraguay River, as reported by the head of the National Emergency Secretariat (SEN), Joaquín Roa.
In a press conference, after meeting in the government palace of Asunción the Executive Committee of National Emergency, Roa reported that "80.2% have already been assisted" of these families, about 16,300, and that the rest will be in "the next hours", because access to some places is complicated.
Roa said that to date, the Executive has distributed 780 tons of food and that vehicles of the Armed Forces, both land, air, river and amphibious, are being allocated to "facilitate evacuations."
In addition, it has indicated that the Navy is in charge of "providing security" to those evicted neighborhoods, to avoid possible looting.
At the same time, he pointed out that in the Paraguayan capital the number of displaced families amounted to 3,089, mainly of those known as "bathed" south and north - marginal belts located on the banks of Paraguay - and that for them they have enabled four properties to house them, which They have electricity and drinking water.
He added that he has 3,300 places for the same number of families, in case the number of displaced people increases in the next two weeks, due to rain forecasts.
In that sense, the mayor of Asunción, Mario Ferreiro, present at the meeting and the press conference, pointed out that the Municipality has also made available to the SEN "several hostels" that, he acknowledged, "are not the ideals", that it is a wasteland where the victims build temporary precarious housing.
The mayor anticipated that the evacuation could last "90 days" since "the return is gradual".
The head of the SEN explained that this is an "atypical" situation since the rainy season has advanced one month, and since "48 years ago the river did not have this rise so quickly", since from 15 March has grown 3.4 meters, reaching 6 meters above its normal level.
The flood "responds to the large amount of water fallen in Paraguay", where in some departments the average monthly rainfall has tripled for this time of year.
The head of the Civil Cabinet, Julio Ullón, indicated that the Government and the Municipality "are working to find a definitive solution" to the displacement of thousands of families that, every year, produce the floods of the Paraguay River. | 2019-04-19T02:47:51 | https://spainsnews.com/paraguay-will-allocate-6-4-million-dollars-to-evacuations-due-to-floods/ |
Most people would agree 2016 played host to a seismic shift in world politics. With Article 50 on the verge of being triggered, people from all walks of life are wondering what the future holds for them in post-Brexit Britain. Not least, the fishing industry.
You may think the challenges facing commercial fishing are well established. For example, fishing holds the longstanding title of ‘most dangerous occupation in the world’ with the fatal accident rate over 100 times that of the general workforce in the UK.
Additionally, fishing is an industry we are heavily reliant on and has rich historical ties with our island nation. Around 80% of us consume seafood at least once a month and the UK fishing industry remains crucially important to many coastal towns.
Criticism, however, is never far away. Organisations such as Greenpeace have run regular sensationalist campaigns condemning the effects of fishing, including excess bycatch, discards, diminishing stocks, environmental damage and animal welfare.
External pressures are only going to add to an already turbulent discussion. Brexit negotiations throw quotas and the jurisdiction of waters up in the air, making the future for fishermen particularly hazy.
In January, Prime Minister Theresa May came under attack from UK fishermen for ‘betraying’ them when outlining the government’s plans for the negotiations with the EU after the triggering of Article 50. In a Brexit speech at Westminster, May was deemed to have failed to address the future of UK fisheries and the relationship with the rest of Europe once ties are cut on Union membership. Fears about fishing being used as a ‘bargaining chip’ in negotiations only served to raise the stakes for a proud industry which MEP Mike Hookem believes could be a ‘shot in the arm’ for the country post-Brexit.
This new political environment and subsequent change does, however, present an opportunity to those within the fishing industry. Customers will be looking for reliability, consistency and stability among the uncertainty. With strong communications there is the chance to be a leading light in what may appear an uncertain time. Building a strong media presence can position you as the voice of the industry. It is perhaps not a time to rock the boat, as being consistent and reliable can breed confidence and trust.
Currently, 66% of UK fish exports go to the EU, meaning tariff-free or low-tariff trade could be vital to Britain in the coming years. Brexit will mean the UK leaves the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) and gains the right under international law to control who fishes within its waters.
Whilst many see the UK’s impending release from EU ties as positive for the fishing industry, there are warnings to be considered. The CFP is a taboo topic in many industry circles and whilst ‘taking back control’ of British waters is a popular mantra, those working in fisheries will have to act smartly to ensure any potential freedom is enjoyed responsibly.
These concerns, and more, highlight the need for communications to be carefully managed and balanced with good practice to maintain successful operations within fishing companies. If companies show good preparation in their handling of the media and act first, fast and frank in the case of an incident, it can put them on the front foot rather than relying on reactionary measures.
Acceleris has worked with the National Federation of Fishermen’s Organisations (NFFO) since 2013, landing six awards in the process, at both national and European level.
Just days after starting work with the NFFO, we established an integrated crisis communications plan when they came up against a direct attack from Greenpeace, coinciding with ground-breaking European legislation change and a protest lobby led by TV chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. From a standing start, Acceleris achieved five of seven annual objectives in the first month, landing 88 pieces of coverage (89% positive), 135 million positive opportunities to see and laid the foundations for a much higher media profile, including coverage on Newsnight and in The Times.
We have since challenged misconceptions about the fishing industry through campaigns such as ‘Let Them Eat Hake’, the championing of Britain’s most sustainable fish, in 2014. Through a radio day, celebrity endorsements, hake tasting sessions attended by opinion formers and the use of video, the celebration of sustainability changed the conversation from concerns about overfishing, generating significant positive coverage across media platforms over a prolonged period.
We have the experience and expertise to make a difference from the get-go.
Challenges to fishing are not going to go away in a hurry. The balance between operating successfully at a financial level and maintaining responsibility is a difficult one to manage. If you need support steering through these turbulent times, we are here to help.

Aside from getting married to your bias, every fangirl’s dream is to be able to visit the country where it all started — South Korea. Honestly, whether you’re a hallyu fan or not, South Korea is a beautiful country and should be included in your travel bucket list.
And if it’s your first time in Seoul, here’s a quick list of what you can do and where you can go!
Standing at 236 meters, the trip to the top of Namsan Tower in itself is already a treat. You can take the scenic route and ride the cable car to the top or take the shuttle bus up the hill to Namsan Tower. This is also where you can find the famous “Love Locks” where couples put padlocks on the fence as a symbol of their love. Go on, put your name and your bias together on a lock. I know I did.
In the morning, Myeongdong is your regular shopping district. In the evening, however, Myeongdong transforms into a beautiful night market; the streets are filled with carts of different kinds of street food and other goodies, like bags or souvenirs.
Although Myeongdong takes pride in being the most well-known shopping district, Hongdae district is not one to take lightly. While its streets are also filled with good finds, Hongdae district is home to street performers, from various groups belting different famous K-pop songs to being serenaded by a vocal duo. Hongdae has its own musical millennial charm.
If you’re a hallyu fan, you’re probably familiar with KakaoTalk, and if you’re not, at least I’m more than positive you’ve seen the cute bear-looking yellow character plastered everywhere in Seoul. Its name is Ryan, and I hate to break it to you, he isn’t a bear; he’s actually a lion who doesn’t have a mane. He’s the leader of a group of friends and you can discover them in their official Kakao Friends store.
No trip to South Korea is complete without the majestic tree line of Nami Island. You can get to Nami Island by riding a train from Yongsan station to Gapyeong station, then taking the ferry to Nami Island.
Winter in Seoul is awards show season. For only 10,000 won or roughly 500 pesos, you can catch an awards show and catch performances by various K-pop groups. Watch your faves grab awards!
Chicken in South Korea comes in different flavors like Snow Chicken (cheese), Yangynum Chicken, and many other kinds, which sets it apart from our usual chicken, which almost always comes in its regular form: fried. There’s something different about Korean chicken and the only way you can understand it is if you try it yourself. We got this good deal for only 16,000 won! An order comes in bulk, like shown in this shot, and we even had leftovers to take out.
If you’re really tired from all the walking around Seoul, you can have chicken delivered to your room and basically anywhere in Seoul. A half cheese and half yangnyum chicken set costs about 18,000 won or 900 pesos and it comes in a cute pizza box-like packaging, with drinks, sides, and sometimes ice cream too.
When you book a DMZ tour, you get a view of the painful history between North and South Korea, and in that tour, you’ll be taken to Dorasan station. This is supposedly where the North and South will meet once the two Koreas become unified. There’s something poetic and sad about the abandoned yet maintained train station, waiting to be functional again.
Aside from seeing the Gangnam bear statues of your favorite K-pop groups, Gangnam is paradise for K-pop fans, as this is where all the agencies can be found. The most famous waiting place to spot an idol is the cafe in front of JYP Entertainment’s building. | 2019-04-23T13:23:55 | https://lifestyle.inquirer.net/282589/look-10-cool-things-you-can-do-in-seoul-during-winter/ |

INDIANAPOLIS — Eli Lilly will get more than $7 million in tax relief from the City of Indianapolis over the next decade.
The Indianapolis City-County Council approved Monday night about $7.1 million in tax abatements to the pharmaceutical company over the next 10 years. The abatements come as part of a multimillion-dollar investment into a building on Eli Lilly’s campus near Kentucky Avenue.
The investment is a $91 million expansion to the Lilly Technology Center – South first announced in 2017. It includes more than 22,000 square feet of building retrofit and 12,000 square feet of new building construction.
The proposal for the abatements passed the full council 19-6. Those who voted no were Democrats Zach Adamson, Stephen Clay, Jared Evans and Christina Scales. The Republicans who voted no were Marilyn Pfisterer and Susie Cordi.
Adamson was the lone councilor who voted no on the proposal when it was in committee a week ago. At the time, there was still confusion on how much the Eli Lilly custodial staff is being paid. Eli Lilly has said that the custodial staff is contracted out to another company, and the pharmaceutical company isn’t in charge of determining the custodians’ pay.
Adamson said the contracting company has maintained that they are paying the custodians as much as they can with the agreement with Eli Lilly. His questions about the pay didn’t get answered.
“[Eli Lilly] still maintains they don’t have any role in that, and that’s disappointing,” Adamson said.
Adamson participated in a protest with custodial staff in October 2018 for higher pay.
He also voted no because Eli Lilly has not committed any new jobs with the expansion. He warned against the trend of companies asking for tax relief to develop or even stay in the area.
The building’s improvements will allow Eli Lilly to better produce insulin products, a company representative said. The last tax abatements Eli Lilly received were in 2017, which totaled about $9.3 million over 10 years. | 2019-04-19T23:10:11 | https://www.theindychannel.com/news/politics/they-dont-need-it-tax-relief-for-eli-lilly-passes-city-county-council-despite-no-votes-and-pushback |
Schools in England are to benefit from investment of over £1.4billion in buildings and facilities over the coming financial year.
This includes over £430 million from the Condition Improvement Fund, covering more than 1,400 projects announced today (Thursday, 4 April).
The money also includes almost £800million for local authorities and larger multi-academy trusts to invest in improving and maintaining their schools.
This funding is part of over £7.4 billion capital funding allocated since 2015. In addition, the priority school building programme is rebuilding or refurbishing facilities at over 500 schools across England.
This investment comes after stats last week showed the government is on track to deliver 1 million new school places by 2020 – with 921,000 created since 2010.
Schools are much more than just buildings; they are the centres of communities, they are where children learn skills for the rest of their lives, and they are safe havens. That’s why it’s vital they are in the best possible condition. So as well as providing the resources for all schools to maintain and renew their facilities, today’s funding will target those schools with some of the most urgent need – making sure children don’t have to spend time in buildings that aren’t fit for purpose.
Over £200 million of Devolved Formula Capital allocated for schools to spend on small capital projects to meet their own priorities.
Since 2015, the Condition Improvement Fund has allocated nearly £2bn for over 6,000 projects at more than 3,000 schools all over the country.
This year’s funding will go to projects that tackle building condition and health and safety compliance, such as replacing roofs, windows and fire alarm systems, to ensure that schools are kept safe and open.
On top of this the Department is today announcing that over £8 million in interest-free loan funding will be split between 167 academies to pay for energy efficiency projects including heating controls lighting upgrades and insulation.
Figures from 2016/17 show state-funded schools in England spent more than £584 million on gas and electricity and the average secondary school spends around £90,000 a year on energy. This funding will help the schools that receive it save around £1.8million a year, driving down the carbon footprint of the school estate and saving money in the process.
The money comes from the Salix Energy Efficiency Fund which is provided by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy and administered by Salix Finance Ltd.
Earlier this year the Department launched a new web-based tool to help schools switch to cheaper energy suppliers.
The Regulator of Social Housing (RSH) has published an addendum to its October 2018 ‘Sector risk profile’ outlining its views on the sustainability of some registered providers of specialised supported housing who tend to lease most of their property portfolio from property funds and other private investors.
The publication, ‘Lease-based providers of specialised supported housing’ looks at the recurring factors that have led to a number of providers of this type of accommodation with similar business models being assessed by RSHas non-compliant with its Governance and Financial Viability Standard.
a lack of assurance about whether appropriate rents are being charged.
Specialised supported housing should provide accommodation and care for some of the most vulnerable people in society, enabling them to live independently. Recently we have seen rapid expansion in providers of this type of accommodation, enabled by long term, index-linked lease financing at tight margins for the provider. Substantial reliance on this type of financing creates significant risk exposures, and we are concerned that a number of these providers do not have the resources and skills needed to appraise and manage them. We have also identified cases of poor quality service to tenants and failure to maintain properties to required standards.
We intend to work with the boards of these registered providers to establish whether they can develop a long-term business model that demonstrates they can manage these risks, is sustainable and compliant with our regulatory standards. Where an organisation falls into financial difficulty and tenants are at risk, our priority will be to seek to achieve the best outcome for tenants and to protect their interests. We will be unable to guarantee the position of creditors and investors.
Lease-based providers of specialised supported housing is available on the RSH website.
The Sector Risk Profile 2018 and Governance and Financial Viability Standard is available on the RSH website.
RSH promotes a viable, efficient and well-governed social housing sector able to deliver homes that meet a range of needs. It does this by undertaking robust economic regulation focusing on governance, financial viability and value for money that maintains lender confidence and protects the taxpayer. It also sets consumer standards and may take action if these standards are breached and there is a significant risk of serious detriment to tenants or potential tenants.

Does anyone know when this street and the others nearby (John Clay Street etc) were pulled down ?
I suppose this would probably be mid sixties but I'm not entirely sure.
A lot of new housing and Wawn Street clinic etc were built on the redeveloped land.
My mother grew up there and we're trying to help her piecing together some old memories.
I left Shields 1966 and they were still standing then I believe.
The Dole Offices were in Wawn Street.
Yeah I used to walk up to the dole office from Chi Garage ( where I worked ) to sign on !!
Most of those streets in the Chi area were demolished in the late 70's/early 80s.
A few of them were left alone, especially near Chi.
I was born on Stephenson Street, where the The Cyrpus was (is?).
There was a great chippie on Moffett street, and an old offie on Stainton/John Clay.
The chippie was still there in the late 80's.
Great time as a scoy bout in that area!!
I remember Marsden Street and especially Moffat Street fish shop which was only rivaled by the Sweet William and chips from John Clay Street Fishy. Barney, were you in the 22nd scouts out of Brownsea Hall off Imeary Street corner of East Stainton Street. I can remember the bus stop on Chi Road out side the Army recruitment shop and towards the end of the John Clay Street there were a couple of second hand furniture shops, a corner shop and further up the road a bookies and a fresh Grocers shop. the place was falling to bits in the sixties but had a definate community, I wonder were all those cobles went from the back lanes. The new houses look about ready for replacement themselves, definately another council planning blunder - still fond memories.

Hi Nesr012 - I was in the 22nd Scouts of Brownsea Hall for four years. Brownsea Hall was an old baptist Church that was converted to be our scout hall - if ripping out the pews could be called a conversion!! Them were the days - 1968-1972. I was in C troop, we used to meet on Fridays. Almost every weekend was spent down at West Hall, just outside of Whitburn. Our troop leader, Dougie Palmer, was the warden there. Some great times there, too!!
Were you in the 22nd, Nesr, or just from the area?
Yes Barney, I was in the 22nd cubs and scouts around 65-68 ish.
I was in the cubs / scouts along with Paul Mars, Trevor Holland, Derek Cheeseman and Steven Casey to name but a few. We used play the piano in the girls tap dance hall and play footy using the old church pew as goals before dib dib dibbing - great days. The subs were a tanner at the time wich Trevor used to collect. Only attended one West Hall and remember someone was sick over everyone during the night along with someone falling from the assault net that used to strung up between the trees, seem to remember tales of a headless horseman that used to ride the grounds...............scared the s**t out of us at the time.
hA-Ha! Yup - loads of stories about West Hall - like the warden who went mad and hung himself from the tree on campsite 13! Or the night the owls started attacking the tents and picking trhe eyes oout of the cubs heads!!!
Campsite 13 was, ever afterwards, The Chapel.
It was always fun mucking about on the assault course, but nowadays parents would never let their kids do anything so dangerous.
I remember being in gpoal for most of the footie in the hall.
And how about the "wide games" - like running all the way down f'ing Mowbray Road to get 12 grains of sand from thr beach!!
Incidentally, I was at the high school with a Paul Mars. Possibly the same guy? He was very tall for his age then. He and I were great rivals in the 100 yard sprint.
Thanks for posting this photo, it brings back some treasured memories.
Although not in the picture, if you could imagine seeing may be the next ten doors lower down the street in front of the car, was where my mother grew up at number 80. During the sixties we often went back there to visit her mother. And just a few doors further down from that was where a few houses were bombed during the war and the houses (what was left of them) were demolished and an open space was left. A childrens playground was built in later years (to keep the kids off the streets).
As already mentioned in other posts, this was probably the best place in town for those liking fish n chips (2 great chippies within a minutes walk).
The corner shop in your photo used to have all sorts of sweets lined up in big jars and the shopkeeper would weigh whatever amount was wanted into little, plain white paper bags. No hi definition, illuminous, heat sealed packaging in those days !!!
Also, around the corner in John Clay Street (I think), was a pie shop where even just the smell of the pies could make you hungry.
We would often get a big plate sized pie, get the jug filled up with peas and gravy and enjoy this with some 'cut your own slices' crusty, bread n butter.
I think it's time to raid the fridge !!!
Lovin this photo Mr A , =D> ,,have you any more ?
there is not many in the street either ...nowdays your lucky to get parked ..
malaymac wrote: The corner shop in your photo used to have all sorts of sweets lined up in big jars and the shopkeeper would weigh whatever amount was wanted into little, plain white paper bags. No hi definition, illuminous, heat sealed packaging in those days !!!
That's the shop I referred to as the Offie earlier on.
I remember it well because they had this poster showing the conversion amounts between between old currency and new currency. This was when we were being ripped off by decimalisation, and a ha'penny bubble gum became a thing of the past.
My parents had an upper floor two-room flat on the corner of Stephenson and John Clay. The windows looked out onto John Clay. There was six of us living in them two rooms before they moved us to Whiteleas.
I remember the gap where the bombed houses were - there was actually a couple of them - one not far from Moffett chippie.
The kiddies play park came very late.
the others are not clear enough to tell what they are.
and you're right anna it is an excellent photo and I'd love to see more like it.
In the distance can be seen Dean Road and the surgery of Dr Welsh. As kids, when weren't feeling too well, we would be taken to see Dr Welsh and it was like visiting one of those old Victorian type places with wood paneled walls. A daunting experience for any kid, but he was a very kindly fella and would put us at ease.
It was a V4, a horrible petrol guzzling monstrosity, needless to say I didn't have it for long.
I didn't think much of the tinny Mk III either.
it looks like a nice car Mr Smith ....but i have to say ,,i do like the white wheels on the other ones ..
the difference was the engine size and the Six had more luxurious fittings. | 2019-04-24T18:35:14 | http://forum.southshields-sanddancers.co.uk/boards/viewtopic.php?p=316724 |

No voter in a democracy can seriously expect to be on the winning side of every important political issue, and that includes issues articulated in the language of rights. In a country of tens of millions of voters you know you’re going to win some and lose some. And when you lose you don’t get to pout, or play the victim, or make veiled references to the tyranny of the majority – though heaven knows there seem to be enough people out there these days who see it as their life’s work to be victims.
If we’re being totally honest you really shouldn’t even be able to run off to the judges and ask them to give you what the elected legislators wouldn’t, which is a far too common syndrome in many Western democracies, especially common law ones with potent bills of rights. It is much less common here in Australia, but not unknown.
In my view the proper response, when you’re on the losing side of some issue you care about, is to put some time or other resources into a political party that might deliver the outcome you want by convincing enough of your fellow citizens over into your way of thinking.
That all seems pretty straightforward, too straightforward in fact. You see our live options as voters are between only a very small number of political parties. And just as you can’t expect to be on the winning side of every policy-related and rights-related dispute, you also can’t really expect to find any political party whose views exactly mesh with your own in some 1:1 way.
All voters end up choosing between broad church political party groupings which look likely to deliver some of the things they care about and think good for themselves and the country, but not others. The question is how far can a party go in disappointing you without losing your support?
Let’s take two examples from the Coalition side of politics. Start at the national level. I think Mr. Abbott and the Coalition are spot on in their opposition to a carbon dioxide tax that will not reduce temperatures one iota on any plausible set of assumptions but will cost jobs, increase government involvement in the economy and make Australia a worse place.
And the Coalition policies opposing the NBN, the super mining tax, the government’s position on live cattle exports and the free speech stifling media enquiry are all ones that get my approval too.
So far, so good. Then there are some uncertainties. I’m hoping that a future Coalition government repeals the awful hate speech laws being used to go after Andrew Bolt. And I’d like to think the same thing about its willingness to reform our Australian universities, which have become bureaucratic monstrosities that operate much as you imagine the former East German economy did. Of course we’ll have to wait and see on those fronts.
On the Migration Act, and the Coalition’s decision not to amend it to put the High Court in its proper place, I think the Coalition has made a bad mistake. Protecting your own borders lies at the core of the concept of national sovereignty and as much as I dislike Prime Minister Gillard’s Malaysia ‘solution’, I dislike more the prospect of the human rights mafia and unelected top judges have a veto in this area into the foreseeable future. Mr. Abbott is taking a gamble on this one, and it’s a gamble he could lose, and then come to regret.
But as I said, no one can plausibly expect to agree with every decision or policy proposal of any particular political party. And this choice on not helping amend the Migration Act is not a make-or-break policy for me.
Now put that aside and consider the position of Coalition voters in Victoria at the State level. Personally I’m quite glad I don’t live in that State because I’m not sure I could bring myself to vote for a Baillieu government in the light of Mr. Baillieu’s apparent decision not to follow the majority decision of the Parliamentary Review Committee he himself set up to look at Victoria’s awful Charter of Rights and which came back recommending what in many ways amounts to repeal of the thing.
As it happens this is the same Mr. Baillieu who was no fan of the Charter of Rights back when former Attorney General Rob Hulls was enacting it. And yet given the chance to take the judges out of play by following the majority recommendations of the Parliamentary Review Committee and Mr. Baillieu seems to have completely caved in to all the human rights lobby groups who would never vote for him or the Coalition under any imaginable set of circumstances.
So Mr. Baillieu has taken the government’s response away from the Charter sceptic Mr. Clark’s Attorney General’s office and moved it into the Premier’s office. He seems to be riding roughshod over the predominant views of his core supporters.
In effect Mr. Baillieu is betting that this move by him won’t matter enough to most Coalition voters to stop them from voting for him. And he’s also betting that the rest of Cabinet won’t call him on this or threaten to move to the backbenches.
Of course we can all still ask why he’s doing this and what he hopes to gain. But on the raw politics of his two bets he may well be correct. It’s hard to see a frontbench Cabinet minister who has been in opposition for years and only recently moved into government and Cabinet willing to give that up for something as amorphous as ‘principle’, though in years gone by when there were far fewer career politicians this was a much more common step.
And as for the punters, they may well forget Mr. Baillieu’s two-faced response on the Charter. I’d been hoping for a bit of backbone from him these past months despite all sorts of people telling me this Premier would never make any moves to get rid of the Charter.
Clearly they look to have been correct and my hopes misplaced. As it happens, this would be a line-in-the-sand issue for me. I simply couldn’t vote for a Baillieu government that muffed this chance to wind back the Charter. I’d spoil my ballot before I gave it to Ted if he leaves this Charter in place as is.

From this 20watt Integrated Amplifier project. Some people say that expensive and want the main amplifier only. I recommend this audio car amplifier circuit project, it had a budget of only 5$. and is the main amplifier. They have size of power to speaker is 40 watts and use voltage of power supply is 12 volts so can apply right in car. They use the HA13001-IC is key parts so small and build easily.
When see a circuit as Figure 1 Many people would doubt that. This circuit will be amplified up to 40 watts. (If as the RMS will is about 17.5 watts at load 4 ohms). You do not insult it because the many circuits that were contained in IC1-HA13001 of Hitachi there. Makes a few external devices, and the output of IC1 that connects to the loud speaker will be connected on the bridge circuit types. So causes the output has a high power there.
We do not fear that the speaker will be damaged easily. because in IC1 has the Automatic Shut-Off circuit (ASO) that use to protect the speaker. Thus You need to carefree it. and this circuit will use the power supply range between about 12-18 volts for its’ source.
This simple project starting with make the PCB which has copper layout as figure 2 before. Then solder all components as figure 3. We can solder directly the IC1 onto PCB so should take special care.
The power supply that can use a DC adapter but must provide current over up 1 amperes. Otherwise, when you accelerate the more volume, the sound will be broken and Adapter will malfunction.
This amplifier project use to amplify from the various sound generator such as The iPad or mobile phone or notebook computer’s etc. Or Modified into the old car stereo that repair difficult. We changed the set to the amplifier.
Anyone can help me provide a amplifier circuit diagram for a 16watt 8ohms and 5watts 8ohms speaker,,please for someone who can provide with a complete details such as parts values ang voltage, i will give you a BIG THANK YOU!
It means over 1 amperes.
Not up to 1 ampere. | 2019-04-26T10:37:26 | https://www.eleccircuit.com/mini-40-watt-audio-car-amplifiers-using-ha13001/ |

Anyone who’s read my autobiography, Losing My Virginity, will know the story of how I met my wife, Joan. I fell in love with her from the first moment I saw her, while she worked in a bric-a-brac shop in Westbourne Grove, in London.
A blonde-haired, down to earth, Scottish beauty who didn’t suffer fools, Joan was unlike any other women I had ever met. To win her heart, I had to persistently hang around the shop and buy countless objects before we started courting – my favourite was on old advertising sign for Danish bacon of a pig and a hen singing after it had laid an egg, with a caption that read: ‘Now, that’s what I call music’; a phrase that went on to inspire the Now CD compilations.
From the beginning Joan was a very private person, and the over four decades we have been together she has remained so. She has always been keen to avoid the public eye, to the point that she has never given an interview – however, that just changed when she did her first ever interview for an upcoming film about my ballooning adventures. But while she has preferred to stay behind the scenes, she has always stood by me mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
Today is Joan’s 70th birthday, and while I know she doesn’t like the spotlight, I cannot let such a momentous occasion go by without praising her and everything she has done for me and our family.
Joan is my rock, my confidant and my guiding light. She is the most amazing mother to our two wonderful children Holly and Sam, and the perfect grandmother to our three beautiful grandchildren, Artie, Etta and Eva-Deia.
As the saying goes, behind every man there's a great woman. Joan you are the greatest woman of all. Happy birthday and thank you for choosing to come on this adventure with me. | 2019-04-21T10:25:20 | https://www.virgin.com/richard-branson/behind-every-man-theres-great-woman |

Salman Khan, one of India’s biggest stars, has been sentenced to five years in jail after being held guilty of killing blackbuck while on a film shoot in Rajasthan 20 years ago.
A court in Jodhpur called him a “habitual offender”.
The 52-year-old actor was charged in 1998 with hunting the rare antelopes while filming “Hum Saath Saath Hain”.
His co-stars in that movie, Saif Ali Khan, Tabu, Sonali Bendre and Neelam, have been acquitted for lack of evidence.
In 2015, Salman Khan was cleared in a 2002 hit-and-run case in which his vehicle had crashed into men sleeping on a pavement in Mumbai. | 2019-04-25T07:50:31 | https://archive.newsradio.lk/2018/04/05/salman-khan-sentenced-to-5-years/ |

A new white paper from the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and an April increase in qualifying revenue limits have put emerging growth companies (EGCs) in the news recently.
The EGC designation, established under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act of 2012, makes it easier for small and growing businesses — specifically those on track for an initial public offering — to attract investors and access capital by relaxing regulatory requirements and cutting some red tape. There are a number of benefits to a registrant being classified as an EGC – see Protiviti’s Guide to Public Company Transformation for what they are.
The original law established a revenue cap of $1 billion for a company to qualify as an EGC, but provided for that cap to be adjusted every five years for inflation. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) made the first adjustment in April 2017, raising the revenue cap to $1.07 billion.
Another provision of the JOBS act was a mandate for the PCAOB to report via white papers, semiannually, on the extent to which EGCs actually benefitted from regulatory relief, and any unintended consequences stemming from the more permissive environment. The purpose of the PCAOB’s white papers is to provide general data about EGCs to inform the analysis contained in PCAOB rulemaking releases regarding the impact of applying new standards to the audits of EGCs.
The latest white paper, published in March 2017, found that of 1,951 companies reporting as EGCs in the 18 months prior to the reporting period, more than half (51 percent), received an explanatory paragraph in their most recent auditor’s report expressing substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Equally important, within that group of 1,951 EGC filers, 1,262 provided a management report on internal control over financial reporting in their most recent annual filing, and 47 percent – nearly one-half of all EGC filers – reported material weaknesses.
Protiviti explores the findings in the PCAOB’s March white paper at length in a recent Flash Report, but I wanted to highlight a few of the takeaways here.
First and foremost, while certain regulatory exemptions and benefits may be attractive, they do not mean that EGCs should accept or minimize issues surrounding potential findings of material weaknesses. These deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting may undermine a company’s reputation and reduce company value, to say the least.
The risk is real and should be addressed proactively. Protiviti has developed a financial reporting risk profile (FRRP) to identify financial reporting issues in advance and manage them to avoid potential financial restatements.
An effective FRRP focuses on six areas: accounting principle selection and application, estimation processes, related-party transactions, business transaction and data variability, sensitivity analysis, and measurement and planning. The underlying objective is to identify the most likely areas of potential misstatements and apply the appropriate oversight and control.
Second, EGCs should take the steps necessary to document key business processes so that these processes are well-defined and repeatable, reducing reliance on ad hoc activity by key employees. These processes may include a fair amount of financial reporting; related policies and activities, such as those that aid in the preparation of financial schedules for external auditors in the support of audits; filings; executive compensation; and employee benefits. Pre-public companies should design and implement a process for documenting conclusions on reporting and accounting matters.
Internal controls and documentation are critical because they minimize the risk of material weaknesses in the organization’s financial reporting. Consider the effects of just one material weakness: erosion of shareholder confidence, potential share price reduction, a fair amount of distraction throughout the organization, reduced brand quality, and significant remediation costs.
The high incidence of material weaknesses among EGCs is disappointing but, in many cases, generally preventable. It is important not to wait until the first auditor attestation to address potential issues. Many of the preventive measures – governance protocols, fraud controls, internal controls over financial reporting – should be in place prior to the company’s first public filing (e.g., 10Q filings, 302/906 certifications), and others should be in place prior to the initial management assertion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404(a). If these areas have not been addressed and the first public filing is upcoming, the organization should prepare itself by putting in place a robust remediation program. See the Protiviti Flash Report for additional points and information. | 2019-04-24T21:47:27 | https://blog.protiviti.com/2017/04/17/health-check-on-emerging-growth-companies-pcaob-reports-high-incidence-of-material-weaknesses/ |
Forty farmers attended an evening meeting on 19th October in Waddington to discuss farming in wet weather conditions after Lancashire experienced its 11th wettest summer since records began.
, October 23, 2017 — The farmers meeting was organised by the Ribble Rivers Trust in partnership with Natural England’s Catchment Sensitive Farming Programme.
The wet conditions over summer have created many problems for farmers in the Ribble Catchment. Saturated land has made accessing fields very difficult and many livestock farmers have extra manure and slurry to deal with, whilst trying to avoid negative environmental impacts.
Speakers at the farmers meeting included Sarah Bolton, Agricultural Project Officer for the Ribble Rivers Trust, Neville Pearson, former ADAS soil and water consultant, Michael Graham, Natural England’s Catchment Sensitive Farming coordinator and Louise Kite from Lancashire County Council.
Topics of discussion included ways to reduce diffuse pollution in watercourses, improvement of soil structure and how to access grants to help fund the improvement works.
Farmers were advised to contact Michael Graham from Natural England on 07770 700 830 about opportunities for one-to-one training and advice about nutrient and manure management planning, soil husbandry and water management.
The Ribble Rivers Trust is also offering free confidential farm audits to identify opportunities that could reduce pollution and help farmers make cost savings as the same time. Anyone interested in a visit can contact Sarah Bolton on 01200 444452. | 2019-04-21T01:00:31 | https://ribbletrust.org.uk/news/press-releases/wet-summer-spurs-meeting-local-farmers/ |
light and flaky pie crust, or a delicate French pastry, usually strikes terror into the hearts of some of the toughest combat veterans. They're tough alright, which may explain why they're so apprehensive over failing over turning out a tough pie dough (or, worse, a fallen souffle).
Yet time and time again we've seen nervous beginners tentatively cutting cold butter into flour for the first time, only to finish the journey by presenting wonderful pies and other delicacies with a triumphant "I made that by myself and it tastes really, really good! Quite pretty on a plate, too!"
Of course baking is just one vehicle that Valhalla regularly uses to help build confidence as veterans transition back into the civilian world, but it's nonetheless a powerful tool that demonstrates the importance of having a reliable, spacious, and ultimately expensive wall oven. Donors take note: the new oven project was worth every penny of your hard earned dollars and generosity, and we thank you for helping to make it happen.
purpose of scavenging the extra shelves.
The cooling and storage shelving components of Valhalla oven project required a total of three 48" wide x 72" tall commercial-grade shelving units since extra shelves were needed, whereas each unit comes with only five 18" deep shelves. We therefore used all 15 wire shelves for just two units instead of the usual three.
The first set of wire shelves is used primarily for storage. Placing essentials out in the open instead of hiding them inside cabinets makes it easy for a new Valhallan to see what's available.
We're particularly happy with the shelf reserved for lids that go with the pots and pans hanging above. Pots and pans can easily be hung up but not their lids, which almost always end up getting lost in a jumbled cabinet. This common problem was solved by spacing two wire shelves just 4" apart, making a very narrow space reserved for lids.
The plywood shelf liner in the pots and pans section is used as an extra counter space. At some point in the future an electrical outlet will be installed so that the sous vide water oven and/or crock pots can be plugged in for slow cooking projects right on the mini-counter shelf.
Finally, the plywood liner is very lightweight and therefore easily removed, thus converting that entire shelf into a cooling rack suitable for oversized roasts and meals baked in the Dutch oven.
The most important and practical benefit of setting up a commercial-grade wire shelving unit around a wall oven is the ability to swiftly transfer hot baked goods from the oven directly onto the cooling racks below -- without having to take a single step.
The cooling rack above the rolling pin shelf can accommodate two gigantic 16" by 22" baking sheets holding dozens of cookies baked at once or an entire row of casserole dishes. Loaded bundt pans, towering pies, and multiple muffin tins all fit neatly and out of the way as they cool.
After cooling the completed goodies or meals are moved to the serving shelf above (i.e., immediately below the oven door), where people dish out whatever they want -- buffet-style.
And there is still a great deal of space available for storing baking equipment, oversized pots, and other essentials. The kitchen is used by many different Valhalla participants who don't always know where things belong, so each shelf has a series of labels showing where to find whatever item is needed (and where to put each item back after cleaning).
Gordon Calder visited the Valhalla Project several times with the Warlords Motorcycle Club, which raised a large chunk of the funds for this new oven project. We didn't know him well, although he was clearly a strong supporter of our programs for veterans. A really friendly man who we looked forward to getting to know better over time. But then time suddenly ran out. Tank was killed in an accident on June 10th.
His tragic death serves to remind us yet again that every donor to the Valhalla Project is just as special as the veterans who participate in our programs. Valhallans are thankful for every nickle and dime that makes this nonprofit venture possible, and we were very lucky to meet Tank in person since the majority of our donors are strangers to us. Generous people who wish to help typically hit the "donate" button on this website or send items from the critical needs list without any further contact with us. Tank reminds us that the individuals carrying out these anonymous acts of kindness and support for our veterans are demonstrating the kind of benevolence that keeps our entire society -- all of America -- afloat.
Tank will be remembered with every casserole, batch of cookies, homemade apple pie, and other baked goods that pops out of the oven. | 2019-04-24T20:03:29 | http://www.valhalla-project.com/2015/07/remembering-tank-very-special-wall-oven.html |

Dan B or Daniel R.?
The truth is, my middle name is Robert. But, many years ago I had a nickname that starts with the initial B. I omit the name here, because it is a very "sticky" name that is hard to shake loose once you know it! Around that time I started using the middle initial as part of my "stage name" (with no period, just to confuse people a little bit). When I started publishing I continued using this as my "public facing" name on publications. Unfortunately, the University of Washington doesn't like nicknames or stage names in theses, and at the time I submitted the final draft I was several hundred miles away, and not keen on fighting the bureaucracy. So the thesis – and, for similar reasons, most of my screen credits – do not include the middle B.

One of my favourite summer tart: a red currant meringue tart. The light and airy pie is made up of a shortcrust pastry is topped with a sweet meringue and red currant that release all their juices as the tart bakes. Yummy.
Just like music, some dishes take you back to a given time and place or remind you of a person. This is the case for this red currant meringue tart.
It reminds me of my summer holidays as a kid. Every year I would go spend a week at my Swiss grandmother’s and she always made sure that the week was memorable: she spoilt me and treated me to all the sweets I couldn’t have back home:-).
If the weather was nice, we would go to the local swimming pool and its adjoining bakery: there we would always get the same two things: a cream cheese and chives roll and a red currant meringue tart.
I love this tart – it’s so light and fluffy that every bite melts in your mouth. I also love that the fruit becomes really juicy after baking, contrasting nicely with the sweet meringue.
But mostly, I love this red currant meringue tart because it reminds me of my grandmother, how close we were and how great these summer holidays always were.
One of my favourite summer tart: red currant meringue tarts. The light and airy pie is made up of a shortcrust pastry is topped with a sweet meringue and red currant that release all their juices as the tart bakes. Yummy.
Combine the butter, icing sugar and almonds in the mixer. Split the vanilla bean down the middle lengthwise. Scrape the seeds of the vanilla bean into the batter. Add the eggs, egg yolk and salt and mix until homogenous. Add the flour in one go and then mix as little as possible, only enough to be able to shape the dough into a ball. Flatten slightly and refrigerate overnight (or at least 1h30).
Roll out the dough so that it's 3mm (0.1 inch) thick. Carefully place the dough in a 24 cm (9.5 inches) diameter pie tin and refrigerate again for 1-1h30. This will prevent the dough from shrinking when baking.
Blind bake for 20 minutes at 180°C (355F), then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Prep the red currants by removing them from their stems. Set aside.
Add a pinch of salt to the egg whites and whisk into firm peaks, progressively adding the sugar. Once the meringue is firm and shiny, gently fold in 300 g (3 cups) of the red currants.
Pour the meringue/red currant mix on top of the pre-baked crust and bake again for 15-20min at 180°C (355F). The top of the meringue should be lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Once the tart is at room temperature, decorate with the remaining red currants.
Jo and I loved this recipe. Thank you! | 2019-04-23T01:02:39 | http://nathaliebakes.com/tarts/red-currant-meringue-tart/ |

I have a very loose definition of the term "life-defining moments". I'm talking about when you find yourself in a place or a situation that you never dreamed you'd be in that has a certain significance or surreality no matter how small. Cool, meaningful moments.
A few days ago, I stood on Red Square at night as strings of lights outlined every line and corner of the GUM, Lenin's Mausoleum stood stout just beyond the walls of the Kremlin, the seat of Russian government, a bounding, panting stray dog happily trotted up to me in the glow of twilight and the buildings all around, as even more lights shone up, casting Saint Basil's Cathedral with under-lit majesty, and as the dog licked my hand contently, I played Tetris on Red Square.
This was my Gaming Pilgrimage.

2009 Study Abroadovich: Life-Defining Moments. | 2019-04-20T13:15:41 | http://studyabroadovich.mutatedjellyfish.net/2009/06/life-defining-moments.html |
Animal communication is fascinating and often way more complex than people realize. Humans are able to communicate with other species with some success but now, researchers have allowed two very different creatures to “talk” to each other. Using robots.
As reported in Science Robotics, the team managed to get a group of bees located in Austria to telecommunicate with a group of fish living in Switzerland. Each group of animals had a robotic counterpart of themselves that would serve as a communication relay, connecting the two groups and, in turn, influencing their behavior.
The robots in each group emitted signals specific to that species. The bee robots vibrated, changed temperature, and produced air movements. The fish robot could change its color, shape, and how it moved. Each robot recorded the signals produced by its assigned species, transmitted it to the other robot, and then translated the incoming message into something its species could understand.
"We created an unprecedented bridge between the two animal communities, enabling them to exchange some of their dynamics," lead author Frank Bonnet, from the Biorobotics laboratory (BioRob) at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, said in a statement. "The species even started adopting some of each other's characteristics. The bees became a little more restless and less likely to swarm together than usual, and the fish started to group together more than they usually would."
Despite being 700 kilometers (435 miles) apart and experiencing the world differently, the two species communicated. At first, their interactions and feedback were chaotic but they eventually found common ground. The researchers report that after 25 minutes the two animal groups had synchronized. The fish began swimming around their tank in a counterclockwise direction, while the bees swarmed around one of their robotic terminals.
"The robots acted as if they were negotiators and interpreters in an international conference," explained Francesco Mondada, a professor at BioRob. "Through the various information exchanges, the two groups of animals gradually came to a shared decision."
This research has multiple applications. The new approach could help robotics engineers capture, translate, and understand biological signals. Meanwhile, biologists could use it to better understand animal behavior and interactions within ecosystems. In the future, similar approaches could also aid conservation efforts by encouraging animals to stay in safe locations or employing them to monitor the environment. | 2019-04-20T00:23:29 | https://www.iflscience.com/technology/robots-allow-fish-and-bees-to-communicate-with-each-other-for-the-first-time/ |

WASHINGTON (AP) - Donald Trump holds the most powerful office in the world. But he's dogged by insecurity over his loss of the popular vote in the election and a persistent frustration that the legitimacy of his presidency is being challenged by Democrats and the media, aides and associates say.
Trump's fixation has been a drag on the momentum of his opening days in office, with his exaggerations about inauguration crowds and false assertions about illegal balloting intruding on advisers' plans to launch his presidency with a flurry of actions on the economy. His spokesman Sean Spicer has twice stepped into the fray himself, including on Tuesday, when he doubled down on Trump's false claim that he lost the popular vote because 3 million to 5 million people living in the U.S. illegally cast ballots.
"He believes what he believes based on the information he was provided," said Spicer, who provided no evidence to back up the president's statements. All 50 states and the District of Columbia have finalized their election results with no reports of the kind of widespread fraud that Trump is alleging.
If the president's claim were true it would mark the most significant election fraud in U.S. history - and ironically, would raise the same questions about Trump's legitimacy that he's trying to avoid. Yet Spicer repeatedly sidestepped questions about whether the Trump administration would investigate the allegations pushed by the president.
Some Trump allies say Trump is justified in using his platform to defend his standing. They point to Georgia Democratic Rep. John Lewis' pre-inauguration statement that he did not see Trump as a legitimate president, as well as U.S. intelligence agencies' assessment that Russia meddled in the election in order to help Trump win.
"Segments of his own government keep driving this narrative," said Roger Stone, a longtime confidant. "I don't think it hurts to point it out."
Key advisers in Trump's inner circle concede the focus on crowd claims and alleged voter fraud have been a distraction. But who's going to stop him from airing his complaints?
After relishing in Friday's inaugural festivities, the new president grew increasingly upset the next day by what he felt was "biased" media coverage of women's marches across the globe protesting his election, according to a person familiar with his thinking. Trump was particularly enraged with CNN, which he thought was "gloating" by continually running photos of the women's march alongside the smaller crowds that attended his inauguration the day before, according to this person, one of several White House aides and associates who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about private conversations.
Tuesday night on Twitter, Trump slammed CNN again, referring to the network as "FAKE NEWS @CNN" while praising rival Fox News Channel.
The result has been a full display of Trump's propensity for exaggeration and more. During an appearance at the CIA Saturday, he wrongly said the inaugural crowds gathered on the National Mall stretched to the Washington Monument, despite clear photo evidence to the contrary. And during a reception with lawmakers from both parties Monday night, he repeated his false assertion that millions of illegal immigrants provided Hillary Clinton's margin in the popular vote.
It's not the first time that Trump, who is known to be both thin-skinned and dedicated to polishing his public image, has become fixated on details that challenge his success. When journalist Timothy O'Brien wrote in a 2005 book that Trump was a multimillionaire, not a billionaire, the real estate mogul sued him for $5 billion. The case was dismissed. Trump appealed, accusing the journalist of libel. He lost that, too.
Spicer hinted at Trump's feelings during his maiden press briefing on Monday.
"There is this constant theme to undercut the enormous support that he has," Spicer said. "And I think that it's just unbelievably frustrating when you're continually told it's not big enough, it's not good enough, you can't win."
Less than one week into the administration, Spicer has twice been sent to the White House briefing room to reiterate his boss' message. Trump is said to have approved of Spicer's angry tirade against the media on Saturday, which included false statements about the size of inaugural crowds. But the president, who is intensely focused on optics, was said to be critical of Spicer's on-camera image.
Underscoring Trump's habit of stoking rivalries among his staff, he has told people he wants his counselor, Kellyanne Conway, to be on television more. He cheered her use of the phrase "alternative facts" in a recent interview as a way to counteract what he believes is the media's inherent bias. | 2019-04-21T04:46:06 | https://www.timesfreepress.com/news/national/political/story/2017/jan/25/trump-dogged-insecurity-over-popular-vote-med/409397/ |

Sarah Lamb is a talented and dynamic realist painter. With classical skill—and through transparency, depth and texture—she captures the minute details of everyday objects in her dramatic still lifes and luscious landscapes. She makes us love the familiar and see beauty in the mundane. Born in Petersburg, VA, with a passion for art and an appreciation for the past, Sarah spent a semester at the Studio Art Center International in Florence, Italy before graduating from Brenau Women’s College with a BS degree in Studio Art in 1993. Following a summer workshop in Santa Fe, NM with renowned classical painter Jacob Collins, she spent two years painting at The Ecole Albert Defois in the Loire Valley with classical realist artist Ted Seth Jacobs. In 1997 she moved to New York and spent the next 6 years studying and painting under Jacob Collins at the Water Street Atelier. She has been featured in magazines such as American Artists, American Art Collector and Southwest Art as one of America’s most talented young painters. British-born art critic, John A. Parks, wrote that "Sarah Lamb brings to her work a robustly sensual grasp of the world. Her keenness of eye and joyful brush make the whole enterprise feel freshly alive as she reminds us what the really wonderful things in life are." Sarah, her husband, artist, David Larned, and their daughter, Sadie, divide their time between Pennsylvania's Brandywine Valley and Houston, Texas. | 2019-04-19T00:28:27 | https://spaldingnixfineart.com/artist/sarah-lamb |
In the third instalment of our instructional blogs for video content, we’re going to be explaining how to use Lumen5 to effectively promote your blog posts.
We recently published a blog post where we lightly touched on four methods for creating quick and easy video content for your social channels. You can find that here.
Next, we explored Biteable in more detail – a video creation tool that can be used for various purposes. This can be found here. Lumen5 is different to Biteable in the sense that it is (more or less) exclusively used for blog promotions.
If you’re running social channels for business, there’s a good chance you’ve written and then promoted blog posts. Just like the one you’re reading. With Lumen5, you can create videos to promote your blogs; which should result in more reach (as we all know, social media channels are loving video right now).
Create a free account and select the blog you want to promote, then hit the “create video” button at the top-right of your screen.
If your blog has already been published to a website, you can copy and paste the URL of the post into the bar. This will automatically create a draft of the frames for you.
If not, you can click the “copy and paste your content” which takes a little bit longer but works just fine. Do this if you’re creating the video before posting the blog.
Once your text has been uploaded, you can click on the sentences which you would like to feature in your frames. Think of them as highlights of the blog.
Once selected, the “highlights” will appear on the storyboard. They will appear in the order you clicked them, but they can be dragged around in an order that best suits you.
If one of the sentences you’ve picked is a bit long, you can easily edit it on the storyboard.
Now your storyboard has been created, it’s time to select the media for each frame.
Lumen 5 will automatically select random images/videos for your frames. Don’t worry, there are plenty of others to choose from, or you can even upload your own!
There’s a search bar on the left. Simply search for the kind of image/clip you want and drag it over to match your frames. You can also filter to only find images, videos or icons.
On top of the “millions of copyright-free media”, you can upload your own personal images and videos.

The number of working days in the UK lost to sickness absence has risen for the first time in five years, according to a new survey.
The Confederation of British Industry's (CBI) annual absence survey shows the number of working days lost in 2003 rose by 10 million to 176 million, a 6 per cent rise.
The cost to employers in lost productivity was some £11.6bn.
The figures mean that the average British worker took 7.2 days off last year - an increase of half a day on 2002.
But while the total number of days lost in 2003 showed an increase, the CBI calculated that the cost to employers remained the same because firms were dealing with absenteeism better.
The service sector saw the sharpest rise in days lost, with absenteeism rising by eight per cent.
And once again, the survey found that absenteeism levels among public sector workers was significantly higher than their private sector counterparts.
Absence in the public sector averaged almost two days per head higher at 8.9 days a year – at a cost of £566 per employee - compared to an average of 6.9 days costing £450 per employee in the private sector.
The CBI pointed out that public sector absence costs some £4 billion a year and added that the UK taxpayer would save £1bn a year if public-sector absence could be brought into line with private sector levels.
"Firms understand that the majority of absence is due to genuine minor sickness. But absence is a serious and expensive concern that is on the increase," said the CBI's deputy director general John Cridland.
"Unwarranted long weekends and staff 'pulling sickies' are taking their toll on the UK's ability to absorb the enormous cost of absence."
And he added that companies are particularly concerned about staff "awarding themselves days off" during this summer's Euro 2004 football championship.
Employers believe that 'pulling sickies' accounts for 15 per cent of all absence or 25 million days a year costing them £1.75bn.
Almost eight out of ten (78 per cent) of the 500 companies that took part in the survey said they suspected some staff of extending their weekends by calling in sick on Fridays or Mondays.
In general, the survey found that large organisations had the biggest absenteeism problem. In firms employing more than 5,000 people the number of sick days averaged 10.2 days per worker, whereas in companies with fewer than 50 staff, absence averaged just 4.2 days.
According to the CBI, the disparity is because employees in small companies have more frequent contact with senior management and are under greater pressure from their peers to turn up for work.
Manual workers and manufacturing staff showed some of the highest absence rates.
John Cridland said that the cost of workplace absence was "worryingly high", but he accepted that tough trading conditions during 2003 had forced many firms, particularly those in the service sector, to shed staff.
"This would have increased pressure on employees and possibly affected morale, leading to an increase in absence," he said.
However the TUC accused employers of being the authors of their own destiny. General secretary Brendan Barber said that over three quarters of sickness absence is made up of people on long-term sick leave and blamed employers for failing to prevent and deal with serious illnesses such as stress, back pain and occupational asthma.
"The increase in sickness absence reported in the CBI's survey shows that employers, particularly in the service sector, continue to make workers ill through overwork, bad management and outdated work methods," Barber said.
"The TUC and the CBI need to work together to get employers to concentrate on keeping staff healthy and in work, which should be even more important in a struggling sector.
"And when people are made ill, they should concentrate on getting workers healthy and back to work." | 2019-04-26T15:46:22 | https://www.management-issues.com/news/1299/absence-on-the-rise-in-uk-plc/ |
It is surprising to me just how little Obama has bragged about his accomplishments on Energy. His administration has been almost without qualification a success on energy policy.
Let us start with the Drill Baby Drill crowd. This is the crowd which should be the most happy with Obama. He has stunningly stopped a several decade long decline in oil production. From 1985 on domestic oil production dropped just about every single year. This includes dropping every single year of the Bush administration. Oil production under Bush dropped from 2,130,707 thousand barrels in 2000 to 1,830,136 thousand barrels in 2008. Then, much to my shock, domestic oil production increased in 2009, then in 2010, then in 2011, and it looks to be on track to do so again in 2012. By 2011 production was up to 2,065,172 barrels, undoing two thirds of the drop which occurred over the Bush administration.
With the failure of Yucca mountain and all of the drama relating to Fukushima the picture on nuclear power is more mixed. Still, the most important thing for nuclear is to build new reactors. As long as 1970s era nuclear reactors are forced to compete with newer power plants it is hard to see a future for nuclear. If we can just continue to build a few reactors a decade than if natural gas prices ever peak again or renewables fail to live up to expectations a real nuclear renaissance can occur. On this front, it finally looks like we will get some new reactors. The Vogtle Electric Generating Plant in Georgia is actually being built!
One thing I never liked about the Bush administration was its focus on Hydrogen powered cars. There was never a good idea about where all the hydrogen would come from, and the technology has unsurprisingly languished. However electric cars do hold some real promise. Sure, the leaf would only suffice as a sole vehicle for someone who almost never drives, but the Volt is actually a real practical car as is the plug in Prius. If over the next decade the price of gasoline slowly rises to twenty or thirty dollars a gallon, we finally have an option which keeps civilization going. Since Obama saved GM he can reasonably take credit for the Volt, although I doubt he will until the bugs get worked out of this new technology.
Solar production follows much the same trajectory but unlike Wind is still producing negligable amounts of electricity.
Another Bush boondoggle was Ethanol. It just was a clever farm subsidy. Unfortunately Obama has not managed to kill it. Fortunately he did manage to stop growth in the industry with 2011 having the smallest increase in production in a decade or so.
A clever Republican might, quite rightly, point out that a few of these things were just the completion of ground work completed during the Bush administration. They would be right. However if Obama gets crap for economic failures which started in the Bush administration he certainly should get credit for the things that went right. | 2019-04-24T12:30:31 | http://glmory.blogspot.com/2012/09/obama-on-energy.html |
Riyadh (AFP) - Fizzing with boyish exuberance, Saudi programmer Zainalabdin Tawfiq could be mistaken for a college freshman, but the popularity of his "honesty" app has shone a spotlight on the conservative kingdom's nascent tech scene.
Tawfiq catapulted to fame when he took time out of his day job as a business analyst last year to develop an anonymous messaging tool called Sarahah -- honesty in Arabic -- that subsequently topped the charts for app downloads.
"Sarahah is the digital equivalent of an old-school suggestion box," 29-year-old Tawfiq told AFP, adding that it is built on the premise that stripping users of their identity promotes ruthless honesty.
"Feedback is the goal -- anonymous feedback."
The app has a frugal design and a simple prompt that encourages users to "leave a constructive message :)", with the recipient not allowed to reply but only share it on social media or block the sender.
Its mass appeal stems from the appetite in the Arab world -- notorious for online censorship -- for unfiltered platforms for expression, though Tawfiq said it has also gained a strong popularity in Western countries.
Such has been its power to knock down social barriers that obstruct free speech that one user described it as an app where you can "hit enter on comments you would have otherwise backspaced".
"The success story of Sarahah really proves that Saudi startups can achieve spectacular gains when properly supported," said Nawaf Alsahhaf, CEO of Badir, a government-backed technology incubator that helped Tawfiq.
"There truly is undeniable potential behind Saudi startups we currently incubate," he told AFP.
"It is clear oil's decline and entrepreneurship's rise are necessarily intertwined," the Beirut-based venture capital firm Leap Ventures wrote on its website last year, noting a new growth in disruptive tech innovations in the region.
A new breed of Saudi startups -- from an on-demand roadside assistance app called Morni to Hunger Station, a food ordering portal -- have recently drawn the attention of venture capitalists.
Sarahah has come under fire for being a troll magnet -- but Tawfiq said that problem was common to all major social media platforms.
It has also recently been accused of secretly harvesting the address books of users. Tawfiq rejected that claim and said he plans to remove Sarahah's address upload feature with the next update.
"I believe that even one case (of abuse) is actually too many," Tawfiq said. "I won't tell you how, but my aim is to make the job of misusers as difficult as possible." | 2019-04-19T09:21:29 | https://finance.yahoo.com/news/saudi-arabian-honesty-app-takes-internet-storm-032358621.html |

THE STORY OF GRANGE The development of Max Schubert’s Grange is a modern tale of imagination, a battle against the odds and redemption. It began with a side trip to Bordeaux in 1949, where a wine ‘capable of staying alive for a minimum of twenty years’, first entered Schubert’s mind. His first experimental vintage in 1951 began a new way of thinking that would eventually lead to a signature wine style, but not before Grange was discredited and Max Schubert forced to make the wine in secrecy. TECHNICAL INFORMATION Origin: Multi-regional blend, South Australia. From Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra and Magill Estate. Variety: 96% Shiraz and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The original and most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district blending philosophy, Grange is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine and is of cially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia. Crafted utilising fully-ripe, intensely- avoured and structured Shiraz grapes, the result is a unique Australian style that is now recognised as one of the most consistent of the world’s great wines. With an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951, Grange clearly demonstrates the synergy between Shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia.
Colour Opaque black core, dark red rim.
Nose An aromatic assault / surge / eruption of soy, hoisin, balsamic reduction… coiled around a core of kirsch and fresh raspberry. This propulsion is crammed with tell-tale barrel ferment, V.A. and formic Grange markers – all in balance, all respectful of fruit and oak. And yet, so ‘classy’ – a brightness, a sheen, a gloss, a raciness – belying both age and upbringing (élevage).
Palate Formidable No gaps, a densely-packed structural continuum. Not huge, not massive, yet taut, muscular, feisty. A black palimpsest - black fruits, black liquorice, black pudding, black fig, black cardamom.... Granitic chewy tannins linger and coat; oak all but fully concealed, submerged beneath a tannin/oak/acid/flavour tsunami. Fruits? Where to start in this entanglement? Time please.

We can create a reading revolution in Limpopo!
factors involved in reading and packages this together with individually focused algorithms to ensure the best improvement on all levels for each user.
their skills and to thrive in an ever-changing world.
A shocking 91% of Gr 4 learners in Limpopo cannot read for meaning. This basically means when they read, most of the time, they do not understand what exactly they are reading. This is a key finding of the latest Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) released on 5 December.
Although these results are a reason for concern, as the purpose of reading is to understand, we are of the opinion that there are viable solutions for the current situation.
Reading with comprehension is crucial, as it is the building block on which all other learning takes place. How can we expect these learners to pass a subject like science or math if they do not even comprehend the basics of what they are reading?
The recent PIRLS results do not only highlight the concerns for our students’ skill levels in Limpopo, but also underlines a critical fact that illiteracy is one of the leading causes of delinquency, poverty, frustration, and depression, which in turn leads to a loss in productivity and a general reduction in lifestyles and wellness amongst people in global communities.
The question then is what would be the impact of improving these critical skills in our communities?
It is a known reality that despite the fact that governments are spending billions on improving curricula and creating cutting-edge environments in an effort to improve academic achievement, learners are still struggling.
At Lectorsa we realized more than 30 years ago that change in education is going to be inevitable.
The current struggle, as highlighted by the PIRLS results, can be attributed to the increasing gap between the curriculum and the students’ ability to interact, learn from and use the information they have to study.
In South Africa today far too many students are not even sufficiently taught how to read (Gr 1 – 3) nor are they taught the skills and strategies needed in order to Read-to-learn (Gr 4 – 7 and beyond).
Therefore, they are unable to retain and work with the information in their curriculum.
This is one of the main reasons why 78% of our children cannot read for meaning.
I agree with the above statement; we can change this; we can bridge this GAP.
As a matter of fact, we are already bridging this gap. Accurate intervention can make a significant difference in the academic futures of our students. This has been proven, in 2017 alone, with more than a 1000 Gr 4’s from schools in SA who were enrolled in the on-line solution, LAB-on-line.
Their Cognitive Development Factor (measured in % comprehension) improved with 17%, their Visual Processing Factor (measured in words per minute) increased from 83 – 185 and their Action, Interpret and Understand skill level (combined VPF and CDF) improved with five years. This means that when these Gr 4’s completed the placement test at the beginning of the year, their skill level was measured at 0, below Grade 1 level, and after completing LAB-on-line their skill level had increased with 5 years – even beyond the expected outcomes.
We are on board! Together we can create a reading revolution in South Africa. Join us in making the vision of a better future for South Africa a reality – we can equip our children with the necessary tools to unlock their full potential and combat illiteracy in order to build a better South Africa. | 2019-04-22T14:09:36 | http://noordnuus.co.za/articles/news/45308/2017-12-13/we-can-create-a-reading-revolution-in-limpopo |
The reinstatement of the “Global Gag Rule” means poor women in foreign countries will have narrower access to contraception and other health-care services.
Two days after millions of women and their allies throughout the world took to the streets to protest the bigotry and misogyny of Donald Trump, the president sat in the Oval Office, surrounded by other men, and signed an executive order that could have dire consequences for women living abroad.
The United States provides more funding for women’s health services than any other country. For health providers that receive that aid, the gag rule forces them to limit their services, or face a major budget gap. In other words, health organizations that provide a whole range of essential services besides abortion get punished. For women, it means narrower access not just to abortion but also to contraception, which in many poor countries is largely funded by foreign donors. Disruptions in aid put women at greater risk for HIV and other sexually transmitted infections, and make them more likely to resort to unsafe abortions. More than 1,327 communities in Ghana, for instance, were affected after George W. Bush reinstated the rule in 2001, forcing Planned Parenthood Association of Ghana to forgo $200,000 in USAID funding and cut its nursing staff by 44 percent, according to Population Action International. In Kenya, two leading reproductive health–care providers were forced to close a total of 17 clinics. Contraceptive shipments from the US to 16 countries—primarily in Africa—stopped completely.
Given the history of the gag rule, Trump’s rush to reinstate it is not a surprise. But that doesn’t diminish the significance of the order for millions of women and their families. The two largest recipients of family-planning funding from USAID, Marie Stopes International and the International Planned Parenthood Federation, announced Monday that they won’t comply with the reinstated policy. IPPF, which will lose $100 million as a result, promised to “work with governments and donors to bridge the funding and service gaps the Global Gag Rule creates.” But even if the money materializes from another source, it will take time, leaving women—particularly poor and rural women—at risk to disruptions in access to care. MSI (which often works in unstable and emergency settings, such as in Nepal after the deadly 2015 earthquake) will lose $30 million, or about 20 percent of its annual budget. The organization estimates the shortfall could, during Trump’s first term, lead to 6.5 million unintended pregnancies, 2.2 million abortions, 2.1 million unsafe abortions, and the deaths of 21,700 pregnant women. | 2019-04-20T00:21:08 | https://www.thenation.com/article/trumps-anti-abortion-order-is-actually-likely-to-increase-abortions/ |

Bank of England policymakers decided that it was appropriate to keep the interest rate and monetary stimulus unchanged this month as UK lawmakers scramble to secure an extension of the deadline for leaving the European Union.
The bank also released the results of a survey which showed that "a significantly greater number of companies had judged themselves ready for a no-deal, no-transition Brexit scenario."
The central bank reiterated that a further tightening of policy at a gradual pace may be need if the economy expands in line with projections, but added that a lot depends on how Brexit pans out.
"The MPC judged that the monetary policy response to Brexit, whatever form it took, would not be automatic and could be in either direction," the bank said.
The nine-member Monetary Policy Committee, led by Governor Mark Carney, unanimously decided to hold the bank rate unchanged at 0.75 percent, in line with economists' expectations.
The previous change in the bank rate was a quarter-point hike in August 2018 and the rate is now at its highest level since 2009.
"The Committee continued to judge that, were the economy to develop broadly in line with its February Inflation Report projections, an ongoing tightening of monetary policy over the forecast period, at a gradual pace and to a limited extent, would be appropriate to return inflation sustainably to the 2 percent target at a conventional horizon," the Bank of England said.
The BoE Agents survey of almost 300 business contacts between January 29 and March 1 revealed that around 80 percent of companies judged themselves 'ready' for a 'no deal, no transition' Brexit scenario, compared with around 50 percent of companies in the January survey.
However, "many of those companies had also reported that there were limits to the degree of readiness that was feasible in the face of the range of possible outcomes," the bank added.
Further, the bank said companies had continued to report "significantly weaker" expectations of output, employment and investment in the event of a no-deal, no-transition Brexit.
The central bank forecast 0.3 percent growth for the first quarter, and said this was "marginally stronger" than previously expected.
The bank also warned that "further cliff-edge uncertainties" could have "a significant effect on spending as any new deadline approached".
Inflation is expected to remain close to the 2 percent target over coming months. Headline inflation edged up to 1.9 percent in February.
"Overall, the Committee judged that underlying inflationary pressures appeared to be broadly on track with the projections underlying the February Report," the bank said. | 2019-04-22T01:01:00 | https://www.rttnews.com/2988031/boe-holds-policy-steady-as-survey-shows-firms-preparing-for-disorderly-brexit.aspx?type=alleco |

The Magical Island Of Cozumel, Mexico.
Don't you just love semi remote islands? They always hold surprises!
Just a 45 minutes in a ferry from Playa del Carmen and you're there along the beautiful island of Cozumel.
The island has so many things to offer!
I would suggest sleeping in Villas Las Flores, we had a great time there.
Snorkeling- The main attraction in all of the beaches in Mexico is snorkeling, done it everywhere but never got to see the sights I saw in Cozumel, from huge Starfishes to sting rays to sharks, definitely recommended on top.
I would like to apologize for that lame photo, it's taken with my phone over the camera because I'm not able to transfer the photos atm.
Diving- if you're an licensed diver, Cozumel has many beautiful places to offer, but ask before going on a dive, my favorite place was Sky Reef.
Can't transfer photos from my diving right now, sorry about that.
Pirate boat- If you're up to a big night of fun dancing, partying, eating steaks and lobsters this is your place to go!
Golf- There is a huge golf park in Cozumel.
Some guy recommended not to take the balls out of the water pools in the golf court if you want to keep both your hands(many alligators).
Paradise beach- offers a great pool and a great beach with water trampolines, water sports, kayaking and more!
The water are so clear!
There is so much more to do here, if you're ever going to Mexico, give Cozumel 3 days.

These verbs are concerned with something existing or something happening. This is a productive use: any verb which indicates where someone or something is, or how they move, can be used with this pattern, for example Near our camp there flowed a beautiful stream. We include in the list here those verbs, such as lie and stand, which are most frequently used in this way.
I just think there are great sources of pain in everyone.
In Brighton there exists an ancient custom of playing a Boxing Day game of bowls using oranges.
There seemed a note of venom in everything he said.
The verb be is often used with a modal verb, such as may, with a phrasal modal, such as be bound to or be supposed to, or with a phrase with an adjective group, such as be certain/likely/sure/unlikely to.
There may be a deeper truth here.
There's supposed to be a cease-fire in the city.
The to-infinitive form of the verb be is often used following appear or seem, or following the passive of a verb such as believe, estimate, expect, know, reckon, report, rumour, say, see,think, or understand. The two verbs are in phase and form a complex verb group.
There appeared to be a woman in the car, accompanied by a man.
There were reported to be wounded on both sides.
In the case of lie, stand, and other verbs used productively in this way, the prepositional phrase or adverb group usually comes immediately after the verb or at the beginning of the clause, rather than after the noun group.
There lay between them something unspoken.

Worse still we drive after having a few drinks, we speed, we send text messages, we drive aggressively and break the rules of the road when no one is looking.
The World Health Organization estimates that 1.25 million people are killed on the road every year and more than 20 times that number are injured in traffic accidents. Estimates suggest that 94%1 of all road accidents (in the US) are caused by human error. It is likely that autonomous vehicles and cars with advanced driver assistance systems (“ADAS”) will provide a safer solution. The sensors on these vehicles will mimic our senses of vision and hearing, but they are also likely to surpass our human capabilities. Optical cameras, “LiDAR”2 and infrared sensors can be placed around the vehicle, eliminating the “blind-spot,” and enabling connectivity, to network the car with the infrastructure in the road such as stop signs and traffic lights. Communication with other vehicles will allow it to “know” that traffic ahead on the motorway or perhaps can even avoid dangerous situations when for example a car just round the bend on a country road has stopped before it enters line of sight.
Improving road safety to prevent human injury and the economic cost resulting from accidents is most often given as the first reason to push for autonomous vehicles. But there are other motivations. Technology companies see the opportunity to push further into a large potential market, and as the global population grows and cities become larger and more crowded, our infrastructure, the physical fabric of towns, cities and societies, is under pressure from over congestion. Autonomous vehicles could provide a solution.
30 years ago the sunroof on my mother’s VW Golf operated by winding a handle, the windows likewise. We would open and lock the vehicle by inserting a metal key into door, adjust the seats with handles and levers, and keep a collection of maps in the glove box in case we lost our way. Many cars today are highly automated: automatic transmission, automatic headlight settings, rain sensors in the windscreen wipers, seat-memory which recognises the individual key fob, infotainment systems which connect to our smartphones, and of course the all important GPS navigation system.
Today we have become so accustomed to the automated conveniences in our own cars that renting a more basic vehicle on holiday can present some surprising challenges. How difficult it now seems to park, especially in an unfamiliar rental, without a rear-view camera or “park-assist” alerts. How embarrassing to stall the engine at every junction forgetting to change into neutral or depress the clutch. And where is “reverse” on this gear box?
Today we are seeing these new technologies entering the car. Enabled by sensors, powerful computer processors, a new generation of “artificial intelligence” and connected by fast mobile networks. The amount of technology being designed into vehicles today is growing fast and this increase in digital content is changing the structure of an industry and bringing myriad new players, very large and very small, into an industry now more than 100 years old.
So many new innovations are now being developed for and added to new models that it is difficult to keep track of the number. Japanese sensor and robotics company Omron, has developed an ADAS system which monitors the driver’s eye movements and “blink rate” in order to warn of drowsiness (Omron’s “Driver Concentration Sensing Technology”). Australian company, Seeing Machines, has developed a technology which goes a step further in tracking the driver’s pupils to check that the driver is aware of all surrounding hazards. Mercedes and Tesla has active “lane keeping” and active “blind spot assist” for motorways, the BMW 5 and 7 Series have infra-red vision as an optional extra for enhanced night time and poor visibility driving, and autonomous emergency braking (“AEB”) will become mandatory on all new cars in the US in 2022, although remains an option in Europe. Many car makers and suppliers are pushing into these areas as a means to differentiate their models against the competition and to add to the ever growing list of lucrative optional extras available to the customer.
Most of the technologies mentioned are used to automate part of the driving process or to augment a person’s skill in driving a vehicle. The Society of Automotive Engineers (the SAE) has defined a spectrum ranging from basic driver assistance systems, such as parking sensors, as “Level 1” automation, all the way up to Level 5 “full automation”, where a vehicle can perform all driving functions in any conditions, and driver interference is entirely optional.
Many billions of dollars have been invested in the development of the technologies and assistance devices used in autonomous vehicles today and many more will be invested in the next 5 to 10 years. Today the Audi A8 is the only vehicle on the road with “Level 3” autonomy. The A8’s “traffic jam pilot” can control the vehicle on a motorway with complete autonomy up to the speed of 60kmph. Beyond 60, the driver must take control (Figure 3.).
The challenge in achieving level 5 autonomy is enormous. In a controlled environment, such as Nissan’s geo-fenced area in Minato-Mirai, Yokohama, where they operate the “Easy Ride” service, or in Singapore’s One-North business district where MIT born nuTonomy, now a Delphi subsidiary, operates a fleet of robo-taxis, the number of variables in road condition and street signs, and possible scenarios, can be controlled to some extent. However, when in “the wild”, outside that controlled environment, that number of variables escalates fast. Developing a system which can immediately recognize all objects, differentiate between critical hazards (eg. people, animals, etc.) and much less significant noise (litter, puddles, fog, etc.) and respond appropriately in every scenario, and do so with a system with limited battery, and confined in physical dimensions and weight, is likely to take many more years of development.
The race has started. Companies are building out their fleets in order to expose them to as a many of these real world scenarios as possible. Networked, these autonomous systems have an advantage over human learner driver counterparts. The data collected by each of the autonomous vehicles can be pooled and the knowledge shared and learnt across the fleet. Tesla claims to have logged more than 1 billion miles of data with their vehicles operating in “Autopilot” mode. Tesla’s Autopilot is, however, only level 2 autonomy. Google subsidiary, Waymo (set up as a separate company in December 2016), Uber, the private company disrupting established taxi companies the world over, and Cruise Automation, owned by GM since March 2016 are the leaders to date in autonomous mileage. Waymo claims to have collated 4 million, Uber 2 million and Cruise 0.5 million miles at level 4 autonomy.
This picture could change fast however. Companies are now racing to expand their autonomous fleets in order to amass deepest and richest datasets. Earlier this year BMW announced they will double their self driving fleet to 80 vehicles in 2018, and Apple had registered 62 vehicles in California in May, up from 27 in January. But plans by Waymo and Uber have more recently raised the ante: Uber announced in November 2017 an order for 24,000 Volvo XC90s for delivery between 2019 and 2021. And in May 2018, Waymo placed an order with Fiat Chrysler for 62,000 mini-vans to their robot taxi fleet.
In March a car operating with Uber’s autonomous driving system caused a fatality in Tempe, Arizona. Autonomous vehicles have been involved in a number of accidents, but this was the first time a person has been killed. Most of the accidents to date have involved cars driven by people who did not anticipate the level of caution and hesitation displayed by the autonomous system.
This raises a dilemma. How many fatalities is society and the regulator willing to accept in the development of autonomous vehicles. Most experiments, especially ones which may be dangerous, are conducted in controlled environments and with people who have actively volunteered and are often paid for putting themselves at risk. From the social and media reaction following the accident, it is clear that people are far more forgiving of human error, “we all make mistakes”, than of a system error in a computer.
Other critical issues also need to be addressed. A car with autonomy levels 2-4 requires that the driver remains vigilant and capable of taking control if necessary. However, the need to remain vigilant and ready to take control, but not actually driving is likely to be more difficult and possibly and sleep-inducing than actually driving. Later down the road, if full autonomy is sold as part of the car’s functionality then would accidents qualify as product failures and will the car company become liable for damages? Audi currently assumes all liability for accidents caused by the A8 model.
In the next few years we expect that governments will step in with infrastructure investments to simplify the path to fully autonomous vehicles. Their incentive will be to reduce congestion and pollution and improve road safety. Many of the challenges of developing effective and safe autonomous vehicles could be reduced by making the surrounding infrastructure “smart”.
Today’s autonomous vehicles are designed to “read” and interpret street signs and road markings optically, but if the fabric of the road infrastructure were digitalized by embedding chips and sensors, then smart traffic lights and street markings could interact with the vehicles and make the technical challenge significantly simpler. Perhaps people might also place a digital tokens in their wallets or they might be embedded into smartphones, pets could have a token attached to their collar, and bicycles and other assets such as non-autonomous vehicles could all be tagged, digitally connecting them to the network and making the entire system safer and more efficient.
Street infrastructure and vehicles might also start to incorporate features to make them more easily identifiable to autonomous vehicles. PPG Industries, a leader in automotive paint, has developed coatings to improve the visibility of vehicles and infrastructure to radar and LiDAR sensors. The paint allow lights to penetrate to a reflective under-layer. The signal bounces off this layer and returns to the sensor instead of being absorbed.
In such a networked traffic system the possibilities for automation technology become myriad, but at the same time the requirements for improved cybersecurity escalate. Networking so many assets will create billions of end-points which need protecting from hackers, malware and viruses. We believe that cybersecurity is another compelling thematic opportunity for long term technology investors.
Only in the last few years the concept of self-driving cars has moved in our collective perception from being a possibility, to becoming a near certainty, with the only real question being when will they be ready for mainstream use? Many of the pieces of the puzzle, from regulation, through technology and social acceptance, still need to be carefully worked out, and before we reach the mass adoption of autonomous vehicles, we will no doubt witness ever more advanced ADAS systems, and suffer many more accidents and more public skepticism.
As technology advances and processing power increases, automation systems and robotics will become smarter, self-healing and ultimately more useful in an ever wider range of use cases. We are already witnessing this process in many areas of the economy, such as factories, hospitals, offices and even our homes. The car provides another good example of the steady rise in automation. When automobiles were first introduced they were known as “horseless carriages.” Perhaps the name “autonomous vehicle” or “self-driving car” will also pass, and over time these fully autonomous vehicles will simply become known as “cars” again.

8 note: Much of the doubling in transistor count has been achieved through shrinking the size of the transistors. This has allowed for economies of scale since smaller transistors and bigger silicon wafers allow the heavy fixed costs required by the multi stage process of semiconductor fabrication to be bourn by a much larger number of chips. In addition, as computers have become more powerful and less expensive, people have developed many more uses for them, and so demand for chips and computers of all shapes and sizes has greatly increased, allowing the manufacturing processes to again benefit from economies of scale and standardisation. | 2019-04-20T22:17:03 | https://www.credit-suisse.com/ch/en/articles/asset-management/future-automated-cars-201809.html |

He didn't see her either..........SLIDSY!
Did you hit one/both of them?
Just to say it: It's a pelican crossing, not a zebra crossing. Right of way is determined by the lights, not by putting a foot on the road.
Even if it was a zebra crossing I'm fairly sure the UK has the same rules as us meaning a pedestrian is not allowed to put their foot out to gain right of way if it will cause oncoming traffic to brake suddenly or swerve - as far as I know that rule is still in place.

Boswa Energy Botswana have revealed their intention to list on the local exchange, Botswana Stock Exchange (BSE) by the end of the year.
The local fuel supplier and fuelling station franchiser’s Group CEO, Tumelo Sealetsa announced this move at the 9th Annual Women in Business and Leadership Conference held at Masa Square Hotel in Gaborone recently.
Sealetsa is confident the move will open up boundless opportunities for the infant energy supplier.
Presenting on the ‘Franchise opportunities at Boswa Energy’, Sealetsa invited women entrepreneurs and the general public with idle land to submit applications to Boswa Energy for fuelling station partnerships.
“We currently have over 50 applications from Batswana interested in the business thus far,” he disclosed.
Sealetsa noted that the multinational companies currently operating in Botswana’s energy sector are set to exit the country soon, leaving Boswa Energy as the only major player in the local industry.
He stressed this could prove a ‘highly lucrative’ development for locals willing to exploit the opportunity.
Speaking of future prospects, Sealetsa said the Group plans to extend its tentacles into the Southern African Development Community (SADC) by setting up subsidiaries.
The Group also intends to promote joint venture partnerships with indigenous industry players who will be selected on their understanding of the native business, pricing strategies, distribution channels, legislative landscape, capacity as well as their footprint.
Boswa Energy Africa is a 100% Botswana citizen owned company licenced to wholesale petroleum and oil refinery products.
Some of the services it offers include: filling station franchising, fuel depot development and management as well as bulk fuel and lubrication supply with the supply of products such as petrol and diesel from FuelEco and FuelPrime, and lubricants from Vulcan, ENCool and ENOC brands.
Still at the conference, BSE Head of Market Development, Thapelo Moribame encouraged entities to list on the BSE.
She said entities have the option of listing as a group and should seriously consider it.
Speaking on investing, Moribame cautioned would-be investors to be diligent and fully research the companies they intend to invest in. She explained this would curtail a situation where one ends up making the wrong investment, which ultimately costs them money and time. | 2019-04-22T19:59:34 | https://thevoicebw.com/boswa-energy-bse-listing-in-the-works/ |

Huelva is a port city in southwestern Spain. It is located in the autonomous Andalusia region *along the Gulf of Cadiz coast) and at the confluence of the rivers Odiel and Tinto. The city has population around 150,000 and covers a total area of approx 149 km2 (58 ml2). Huelva is home to the oldest football club in Spain, Recreativo de Huelva.
A picturesque town between Guadiana and Guadalquivir rivers, Huelva is on the estuary of River Odiel, as well as on the road from the mouth of Guadiana to Merida.
Huelva port has two sectors: inner port (located in the city) and outer port (the major one, also used by cruise vessels and some ferries).
Inner Port has 1 wharf and was created in 1972. East Wharf replaced the old, low-quality harbor facilities (constructed between 1900-1910). Currently, it is the wharf that is used for smaller vessel traffic, such as tourist boats.
Outer Port has 6 wharves and was constructed in 1965. It is located to the south of River Tinto. Port Huelva also serves the ferry ship Volcan del Teide (operated by Naviera Armas). The ship serves passenger traffic between Huelva, Arrecife and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on a weekly scheduled basis.

From heartbreaking stories in the news to increasing anger and bitterness between business associates in the office and friends on social media, there are a host of factors that threaten to pull the most positive person out of the Zone. In fact, the amount of stress and negativity is so high in March 2018 that I’m focusing on helping you stay positive two weeks in a row.
If you’re a long time listener of the Jim Fannin Show, you know that I’ve helped over 2,500 clients wake up happy and go to bed happy. No matter how happy you wake up though, there are countless moments each day that can deliver a huge hit to your S.C.O.R.E.® Level and overall attitude. When your mindset is low enough, you can swiftly enter the opposite of the Zone, which is called, “The Downs.” Once in the attitudinal quicksand of the “Downs,” anxiety, worry, angst, despair, hopelessness, fear, and even depression can and probably will derail your hopes and dreams.
You and your loved ones aren’t going there though because this week’s episode is all about protecting your positivity and overall wellness.
It’s time to put the kibosh on negative stress!
• How former White Sox All Star third basemen Robin Ventura fortified himself against stress, negativity and chaos before every game in order to achieve peak performance.
• The physiological reason why eye rolls, throwing items and other outward signs of frustration are Zone breakers that will take you out of optimal performance.
• Why great questions and open, honest answers strengthen your relationship with your loved ones.
• Proven tactics you can use each day and week to help your family stay cool, centered and inoculated from negative stress and chaos.
Also, I answer a coaching question from the “Ask Jim” Mailbag from a manager who would like some guidance on helping his team through a very high stress deadline. | 2019-04-24T19:58:13 | https://radioinfluence.com/2018/03/01/jim-fannin-stress-proof-your-home/ |
Accompanying the redesign of the magazine in July 2009, a new cover approach was devised using objects to represent the theme of each issue. Featuring a schematic, Caulfield-esque style of illustration and a mid-range colour palette, this use of sequence established a secondary branding language, reinforcing the magazine's visual identity.
and accompanied by the issue number displayed prominently to highlight the magazine's established publishing history.
Inside, clear headlines ensured consistency throughout and devices such as a flexible layout grid and changes in typographic texture created variety defining each section. Two contrasting but complementary typefaces (a modernist sans-serif and a 21st century typewriter font) were chosen to give a distinct identity to the magazine whilst still being neutral enough to harmonise with its design and typography rich content. | 2019-04-23T00:02:50 | http://www.matildasaxow.com/grafik-magazine-issue-175181 |

My name is Patrick Arsenault. I grew up speaking French in Canada’s second largest city. Earlier on, I knew that speaking English was going to be important, so I made sure to learn it.
That led me to meet interesting people in the 9 cities I have lived in 4 countries. Having opportunities to start from scratch, often, allowed me to learn more about myself and my culture.
It took me several years of soul searching (and therapy) to come to realize that one could be aromantic and that I was definitely ONE!
At this point, I am using this blog to document my narrative and share my experiences. I definitely do not claim that my experiences are representative of anyone else. Hopefully, reading this will be helpful to some of you.
Several blogs around aromanticism are available, but I could never really relate to most of them. I think this is a sign that we need more aromantics to share their experiences!
feel free to post comments, engage with me, and share my content as long as it’s done respectfully and giving me credit for my work, thoughts, and ideas. At times, I share my personal experiences, but all other names are changed to preserve anonymity. If you would like content you think may be about you removed or changed, let me know immediately. | 2019-04-22T23:03:35 | https://aroconfessions.wordpress.com/patrick-arsenault/ |

Venizelos graves Chania, about 5 klm to the airport.
The remains lie sadly in a corner of the garden of the graves of father Eleftherios Venizelos (1864-1936) and his son Sophocles Venizelos (1994-1964), both Prime Minister of Greece in the 20th Century.
In honor of Eleftherios Venizelos and in memory of all the freedom struggles of the Cretans, the Freedom Monument was erected next to the graves on the hill near Chania in 1937. It had a height of 20m carved out of marble resembling Athena, and was called the Eleftheria statue. It was the guardian angel over the city of Chania.
She stood there until 1970, when the Greek Tourism Bureau decided to redesign the entire hill. Originally, the monument should have been moved to another setting by means of a crane. But his probably all went wrong …. and the remaining parts of the Eleftheria statue are nicely collected in a corner of the garden looking lonely and sadly up to the sky.
Spyros Kayales – The rebel who turned his body into a flag staff. Dawn 1897; Crete is “simmering” by the atrocities of the Turks. The Cretans have decided to declare Union with mother Greece. The rebels barricade themselves in Prophet Elias, at Akrotiri of Chania, Crete and raise the Greek flag, which had been delivered to them by Konstantinos Kanaris, the first mate of the battleship “Hydra”, grandson of admiral Kanaris. Further to the Turks, they also have to face the reactions of the Great Powers (Italy, France, Austria, Germany, England and Russia), who start a fierce bombardment on February 1897.
The Venizelos graves are always worth a visit. The views of Chania and a clear view all the way to Kolymbari is wonderful; on Sundays, there is service in the adjoining church “Profitis Ilias”, and baptisms and weddings take place here often.
Before the entrance to the tomb, 30m further towards Chania, there is a cafeteria with fabulous views. If one drives around behind the graves, one can enjoy a much larger café which boasts of unrestricted views over Chania. It is always worth a visit for lovers of sweets and pastries …. the Mille-Feuille (and other delights) are known throughout the city! There is outdoor seating in both cafes.

A corporate retreat should be worth your while, giving your business the direction it needs to meet goals for the upcoming year, while also allowing your team time to come together. With the New Year comes new business resolutions, and time to plan for the next fiscal year.
Here are some tips to kick off the planning part of a corporate retreat with a bang.
While exploring major cities is a great vacation idea, studies show that an effective corporate retreat often calls for a more quiet, remote place.
Why not select a retreat venue setting that encourages relaxation, with a luscious backdrop that highlights nature, fresh air and clear skies?Here are some tips to kick off the planning part of a corporate retreat with a bang.
In the countryside, you’ll get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life and be able to focus on what really matters: Getting away from the distractions of the daily grind and working IN the business, to focusing ON the business.
The facility should have the appropriate technologies and tools to hold an effective meeting, such as high-speed internet, flip charts, adequate heating and cooling, good lighting, a variety of meeting arrangements, and more.
As you plan the sessions, keep in mind your end goal for the corporate retreat. Is it for strategic planning? Budgeting? Problem solving? Developing new objectives and goals?
Start with the goal, and then work from there.
Depending on its purpose, carve out enough time for at least a one-day retreat. Be sure to allow for times that bring the entire group together, but also include breakout sessions for smaller groups.
And of course, don’t forget short breaks to give participants time to stretch their legs and grab a snack.
A corporate retreat is hard work. You’ll want to give people the right food to stay energized and ready to tackle the next session. You can also include overnight lodging if your retreat will last longer than one day or you want to give your team a chance to relax after the meetings are over.
Ask your retreat venue if they offer a corporate retreat package that includes food and accommodations.
Give your team an opportunity to unwind. How about opportunities to spend the day at a spa?
Let the participants choose from a massage, a head and shoulders massage, or a manicure and pedicure. Spa treatments are another great way to not only build the team, but also let the members unwind.
No matter how well your team gets along, team-building activities always deliver a positive outcome.
Try something new, instead of the go-to trust-building stand-bys. And help your team get to know each other in a setting outside of work and in a more personal, relaxed way.
Try taking a cooking class together, and challenge your team to work together preparing dinner for the entire group!
The act of preparing the meal gives your team an opportunity to work together and use new skills, as well as enjoy partaking in the meal and enjoying the fruits of their labor.
The HideAway Country Inn is the ideal location to hold your corporate retreat. We’ll cover all the basics, while you and your team can focus on what matters: advancing your business.
Give us a call today to book your retreat or ask questions about our venue.

In many countries across the world, a notable portion of the science curriculum involves learners conducting practical work. The physical sciences Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) of South Africa (2011) advocates for a scientific inquiry approach where hands-on practical activities are used to develop explanations and predictions of events in the environment (Department of Basic Education, [DBE], 2011). CAPS (ibid) further argues that investigative skills in addition to process skills such as classifying, measuring, formulating models, hypothesising, communicating, analysing conclusions and recognising and monitoring variables should be developed in learners. One of the recommended formal assessments for the FET band (grades 10–12) is for learners to have the opportunity to perform one or more practical tasks during the course of each term. The demand to teach practical and inquiry skills would be a tall order for most teachers under any circumstances. The South African context, as a developing country with limited classroom resources, adds a further complicating dimension in relation to the implementation of practical work in the curriculum. Furthermore, the change in the focus of the curriculum, as embodied in CAPS with its emphasis on problem-based practical activities, represents a new challenge for many teachers in South Africa who may be used to a more content and information loaded curriculum. These teachers may also have limited experience with practical work in their own teacher preparation programmes. Many teachers are therefore likely to have various concerns with the new focus on doing increased amounts of practical work in the physical sciences CAPS curriculum, even as they try their best to implement it as required by the authorities. This study used the concerns-based adoption model (CBAM) to uncover and track teachers’ concerns and levels of use of the new practical requirement of the physical sciences CAPS in one district of South Africa, namely the Motheo district in the Free State. The study used a mixed-methods research approach with questionnaires, semi-structured and focus group interviews as well as lesson observations as data sources to understand the concerns that physical sciences teachers have regarding CAPS practical work and the level at which this component is implemented. The findings are reported in two articles that address different research questions. The first article, which is quantitative in nature, explores the concerns that physical sciences teachers in the Motheo district of South Africa have regarding practical work. The findings suggest that teachers’ concerns are inclined towards management issues by focusing on overcoming time constraints and the lengthy curriculum. Furthermore, teachers place low importance on the effects of practical work on learners’ performance, with limited attempts for improvement. Respondents have management concerns that mainly constituted dealing with demanding day-to-day organisational tasks regarding CAPS practical work. Teachers have a desire to collaborate but this is not significantly evident. This suggests that despite the challenges experienced by teachers with practical work, circumstances are minimally improved. The second article is qualitative in nature and examines the extent of implementation of CAPS practical work by physical sciences teachers. The findings uncover the level at which physical sciences teachers implement CAPS practical work according to CBAM. Findings show that teachers operate significantly at the mechanical and routine levels, while the refinement level is at a less significant degree. This revealed that while participants employ teacher-centred methods during practical work, learner engagement is limited. Learners only watch what the teachers do and no active participation was observed. Teachers do not seem to implement CAPS practical work as intended by policymakers. Teachers are faced with a shortage of time and resources. Limited content and pedagogical content knowledge also contribute to nominal implementation of CAPS practical work. Moreover, teachers use traditional teaching strategies when carrying out practical work. This leaves them with little room for innovation with the objective of engaging learners. With the application of triangulation, the results of this investigation show that teachers’ concerns affect the implementation of CAPS practical work. It was important to triangulate the research instruments and data to ensure validity and reliability as well as compare and verify the data. The study recommends that physical sciences teachers need to collaborate more with one another. The results presented here may facilitate improvements in the professional development of physical sciences teachers concerning experimental work. Recommendations include effective teacher collaboration, introduction of laboratory assistants, appropriate professional development and quality planning. An implication for education managers is the need for active monitoring, evaluation and support of practical work. | 2019-04-22T07:08:13 | https://scholar.ufs.ac.za/handle/11660/9770 |
This is the sixth post about a cell phone design project that started here.
Considering the amount of time I could allow in modeling, I had to make a choice between the solutions that were presented before. The Mies track and the leather track were, to me at least, the most interesting solutions.
This is the fifth post about a cell phone design project that started here.
As much as the shape of an object, materials and finishes determines its personality. Stiffness, reliability, simplicity should then be the attributes of the material used in this case. Economics are usually also driving the choice of a particular material over another, but as this is some sort of a dream project, we'll stay pretty vague and just say that that a thermoplastic is the most appropriate material for this kind of object. | 2019-04-21T16:28:25 | http://horizon.tsailly.net/2007/10/ |
Greensboro, N.C. -- Cammy Pereira's walk-off single in the seventh lifted Furman to a 1-0 victory over Samford, but ETSU downed the Paladins, 4-1, to eliminate the purple and white from the Southern Conference Softball Championship in Greensboro, N.C., on Friday evening.
With a trip to Saturday's SoCon championship round waiting for the winner, ETSU's Taylor Wright lined a three-run double into the right-center field gap with two outs in the top of the eighth inning to propel the Bucs into the title game for the second straight season.
Furman (41-15) grabbed a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the fourth inning when Hannah Reynolds belted a solo home run down the left field line for her 11th long ball of the year. ETSU answered the following inning as Tiffany Laughren doubled, moved to third base on an error and scored on Kelsey Chernak's sacrifice fly to right field.
The Paladins had their chance to punch their ticket to the championship round in the bottom of the seventh when Reynolds drew a leadoff walk and pinch runner Caroline Nageotte was sacrificed to second, but ETSU starter Madison Ogle got Pereira to foul out and caught Caroline Cash looking at strike three to end the inning.
In the eighth, a leadoff single and two failed attempts at force outs that turned into fielder's choices with one out loaded the bases for the Bucs. Reliever Emily DeMonte induced a grounder to first base that AnnaRose Borrelli fired home for the second out of the inning before Wright broke the tie with her three-run double into the gap.
Ogle (13-13) limited Furman to a run on five hits over eight innings to earn the win. She fanned seven batters and issued just two walks. Laughren went 2-for-4 at the plate, while Kylie Tolar finished 2-for-3 for ETSU.
DeMonte (13-4) took the loss for the Paladins after allowing three runs on four hits in three innings in the circle. Starter Lindsey Bert gave up just one unearned run on three hits in five innings in her final appearance as a Paladin. The left-hander fanned four batters without allowing a walk and collected one of Furman's five hits.
In the Paladins' first game of the day, Periera delivered a walk-off single over the center fielder's head with the bases loaded and one out in the bottom of the seventh inning to hand Furman a 1-0 victory over Samford that eliminated the Bulldogs from tournament play.
Reynolds opened the seventh with a single up the middle and moved to second base on Candace Johnson's bunt single. After Emma Ogburn popped out, Cash worked a walk to load the bases with one out. Pereira pinch hit for Lauren Duggar and lofted a fly ball to the base of the center field wall on a two-strike pitch to pick up the walk-off single.
Bert earned the victory to improve to 28-9 in the circle after holding the Bulldogs to just four hits in a complete-game four-hit shutout. She struck out eight batters without issuing a walk to pick up her school-record 14th shutout of the season.
Samford's Taylor DeCelles (9-13) took the loss despite allowing just one run on five hits in 6.1 innings of work for the Bulldogs.
Furman's 41 wins during the 2018 season mark the second most in school history. | 2019-04-25T14:08:52 | http://www.furmanpaladins.com/sports/w-softbl/2017-18/releases/20180511zeqi7f |
