The Advisory Committee must hold at least two meetings each year.
The Advisory Committee must submit an annual report to the Minister on or before 30 September each year in relation to the financial year ending on the preceding 30 June.
The recently developed Australian Animal Welfare Strategy has identified enhanced national consistency in regulation and sustainable improvements in animal welfare based on science, national and international benchmarks and changing community standards as areas of priority effort.
Work is now underway to update the model codes of practice and convert them into Australian animal welfare standards and guidelines. The new documents will incorporate both national welfare standards and industry best practice guidelines for each species or enterprise.
In an effort to comprehensively cover all animal management sectors, new standards and guidelines will also be created where model codes of practice did not exist.
All states and territories in Australia are working toward consistent standards and guidelines for animal welfare. Find further information on the animal welfare standards website.
Under the Act, the Minister may adopt a code of practice relating to animal welfare, or vary or revoke an adapted code of practice. Codes of practice set out best practice standards for the care, welfare and management of animals.
The Australian Government has issued a Code of Practice on the Humane Treatment of Wild and Farmed Australian Crocodiles. As the Australian crocodile industry continues to grow it is important that a nationally consistent set of minimum standards for the humane treatment of crocodiles is in place. The recommended standards are based on current knowledge about crocodile welfare issues and what is currently thought to be best practice in humane handling techniques.
This code is intended primarily for use by individuals or companies licensed by relevant state or territory authorities to: capture and/or take crocodiles and eggs from the wild (i.e. private or public lands); to keep crocodiles for commercial raising or captive breeding; to kill crocodiles; or, to incubate eggs in controlled conditions.
The National Code of Practice for the Humane Shooting of Kangaroos and Wallabies for Commercial Purposes and the National Code of Practice for the Humane Shooting of Kangaroos and Wallabies for Non-Commercial Purposes sets achievable standards of humane conduct and is the minimum required of persons shooting kangaroos and wallabies.
These codes have been produced to ensure that all persons intending to shoot free | [

For Australia’s livestock industries there are Model Codes of Practice for the Welfare of Animals which provides principles and practices for animal welfare.
The Northern Territory has a code of practice that sets the standard expected of retail pet shops for the care, management and trade of companion animals called guidelines for the care and welfare of animals in retail pet shops (104.3 kb).
The code of practice was developed in consultation with the Pet Industry Association of Australia and the Northern Territory Animal Welfare Advisory Committee.
Retail pet store business owners, managers and their staff should understand and comply with all relevant aspects of the code of practice.
The Northern Territory guidelines for the care and welfare of caged birds (69.8 kb) provide the basic requirements for humane care of birds held in captivity.
provide the community with a set of guidelines for the care of caged birds.
Owners of birds are strongly encouraged to read and implement these guidelines.
Meat and Livestock Australia has produced a national guide to the selection of animals fit to transport – Is it Fit to Load? This guide has been developed in consultation with the livestock industry to help you decide if an animal is fit to be loaded for transport to sale yards, abattoirs, or any other destination.
Good preparation of all livestock is essential to prevent suffering during transport. The relevant husbandry and transport codes recommend, and export standards legislate, how livestock should be prepared for transport, including rest periods and feed and water withholding periods.
Any person involved in the export of livestock, from farm to vessel, must comply with the new Australian Standards for Export of Livestock produced by Animal Health Australia. The welfare standards and guidelines are based on the revision of the Model Codes of Practice for the Welfare of Animals (MCOP) available on the CSIRO website.
In 2002, the Primary Industries Standing Committee released the National Guidelines for Beef Cattle Feedlots in Australia to assist the sustainable development of the growing feedlot industry and provide guidelines for animal welfare.

10,001,803 | President Theodore Roosevelt inspects progress while on a steam shovel at the Panama Canal, Nov. 15, 1906. The Times reported the next day that he was enthusiastically welcomed everywhere as he talked to the canal's employees. November 17, 1906.
President Roosevelt wanted to see for himself the Panama Canal, which he called ''the biggest thing that's ever been done.'' On November 17, 1906, The Times reported on his visit with the headline: "The President Climbs a Canal Stream Shovel; Also Inspects the Culebra Cut From a Work Train; Sees Laborers' Quarters; Listens Patiently to Men's Complaints - Gets Wet Through and Is Covered With Mud."
"At 8:30 o'clock the Presidential train arrived at Pedro Miguel, where some steam shovels were at work," The Times wrote. "The President had this train stopped for the purpose of making a personal examination. At this point in the cut the peculiar soil conditions have resulted in more or less frequent landslides, and this fact was brought to the President's attention.
"President Roosevelt descended from his train and climbed upon one of the steam shovels, taking a seat alongside Engineer Gray, whom he subjected to a searching fire of questions regarding the work ... He stayed on the steam shovel about twenty minutes. By this time it was raining hard."
Construction of the canal had started in 1903 and would continue until its opening in 1914. | [

10,001,804 | The Carey Group has been working in partnership with BMW at their Oxford plant since the early 2000s on an array of different projects ranging in value from £20,000 to £15million. Our projects have included new build construction, demolition, reinforced concrete walls, gabion walls, roadworks and services and utilities installation. All our projects at this site have been delivered within a live environment and we always endeavour to take the care and attention to work alongside the production team without affecting their operations. Our array of works have ultimately resulted in the delivery of five building extensions, four carparks, three demolition projects, five road construction projects and a new concrete pallet park.
Careys Civil Engineering’s initial works involved groundworks to accommodate a 16,0000m2 extension to the existing building. The scope of works included the construction of a fuel storage block, an air lock, offices, an assembly delivery area, a 7,000m2 concrete service yard, a 3500m2 concrete pallet park, an extension to the loading bay (adding 4 new decks) and a 5,000m2 car park. In addition, five roads were reconstructed to form approximately 1.1km of main production roads.
The vast size of the project created numerous logistical challenges and we devised several access and egress routes, which would not affect BMW’s scheduled deliveries. It was also essential to ensure that complete dust protection was set up. When delivering the works in the paint shop, all operatives needed to wear complete overalls, and erect full scaffold that was covered in monarflex. Extractor fans were also installed throughout the vicinity.
In addition to the plant itself, our programme was affected by the presence of a nearby railway. Therefore we utilised a thrust bore system as part of our methodology when installing a fire main.
Subsequently we carried out works to divert a public footpath which involved 278 works, constructing a retaining wall and diverting services as well as constructing the footpath and new boundary fence. Simultaneously we broke out and replaced 6,000m2 ILC building floor slab.
More recently we have also been involved in the construction of a new building which included a100,000m3 excavation of mostly contaminated material, construction of gabion walls, reinforced concrete walls and pit services, as well as all external works and drainage.
We have delivered a number of other new contracts as part of our experience at BMW Oxford | [

Carey Group company, Scudder Demolition, also delivered a number of projects at this site, including demolition of part of the existing building and assembly loading dock, which included a seven storey stairwell, and removal of all obstructions. These tasks were completed within a window of just two weeks to avoid any stoppage in production. Working 24 hours a day, with several shifts, staying on schedule and ensuring the highest standards of health and safety were maintained meant meticulous handovers from one shift to another, with contract managers working across shifts to ensure continuity. | [

10,001,810 | In this page, handling of brackets or parenthesis in a numerical expression is explained. That is brackets have the highest precedence order and expressions inside brackets are evaluated first.
Multiplication is higher in precedence to addition. In some expressions, addition has to be carried out before multiplication.
For example: Result of `2+4` has to be multiplied by `3`. This cannot be given as `2+4xx3` as the result of this expression does not equal the example.
To solve the problem, Parenthesis or brackets are used.
Parenthesis or brackets are higher in precedence.
The division is higher in precedence over addition.
Then, the multiplication is simplified.
The symbols `(` or `)` are called brackets or parentheses.
For a number of operations of same precedence level, the operations are carried out from left to right in sequence.
What is the value of `7-2xx2`?
The answer is "`3`". Multiplication is higher in precedence than subtraction. So multiplication, `2xx2`, is carried out first.
What is the value of `3-1-1`?
The answer is "`1`". The two subtractions are in the same precedence level and in such a case, the operations are carried out in the left to right order. | [

10,001,811 | If you’re looking for someone to blame now that the city is “thinking about thinking about considering” a ban on smoking on city sidewalks and in city parks, then blame me. On the night that the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver upheld the public easements along Main Street, I had dinner with Mayor Rocky Anderson. Rocky was formerly the attorney for this newspaper. He remains a friend, even giving his wayward dog, Sebastian, to my family. We mostly agree, but not always.
Our meeting was pre-arranged, so it was only after Rocky showed up late that I learned that it was because the court decision had been made and he had been giving comments to reporters. I don’t really know what he said to them—if they work for the Tribune, they probably got it wrong anyway. By the next day, though, the spinning top of accusations that Rocky had abandoned his traditional constituency by siding with the LDS Church had begun. Like I said, I don’t know what he told other people, but I know what he told me. However, as a former bartender, I made a vow of secrecy, so you didn’t hear it from me, whatever it was.
I can tell you what I said, though. I told him that it was all very silly, that the LDS Church knew allowing public access to its property had free-speech strings attached, but that’s the deal it agreed to. I told him I thought the “protesters” were complete assholes, that even if the privilege of walking on church property was a “right,” common decency should dictate not grabbing bullhorns and making a mess of religious services held only yards away. I’m not a Mormon, but that would get my craw for sure.
I also told him that some Mormons thrive on such conflict, though, and that when I said so in the paper, I’d again be “Dansied.” (“Dansied” is my word for people who write letters to the editor making accusations of anti-Mormonism every time we use the word “Mormon,” no matter the context.) I asked the mayor if he believed the church ever fully explained what was at stake to its members when it made the purchase—after all, it owns a major afternoon daily newspaper | [

That’s about the time I took a drag on a cigarette, and told the mayor that given the rules, the church might have considered asking politely for people to respect its property—its ponds, trees and flowers—and its ceremonies. Respect begets respect. Most people would be decent about it and the fringe would be marginalized, I said. Instead, exclusion won the day. See ya in court, the church said. Who’s in charge of P.R. over there, anyway? The smoke hit our reformed smoker mayor right between the eyes. An epiphany. | [

10,001,813 | This post is part of the “Broad Strokes” series, highlighting the work of female photographers and Leica. This exhibition will take place at the Leica Gallery in Los Angeles, from April 2nd until May 2nd as the Official Exhibition of Month of Photography Los Angeles. It includes works from Tanya Alexis, Lesa Amoore, Cira Crowell, Sandra de Keller, Lisa Leone, Eva Napp and Tasya van Ree. We gathered with Cira and talked about her involvement with Broad Strokes, her experience, and her admiration of Leica.
How did you first become interested in Leica?
My grandfather purchased his first III Series Leica in 1939 and Leica was his passion for forty years. Although he passed when I was very young and I did not know him well, I grew up around his seemingly magical collection of cameras and lenses, many of which I still use today. He lost his vision towards the end of his life and it is an honor to continue seeing the world through his lenses, his eyes. He would love knowing the adventures his gear is still having! I’m constantly amazed by the quality and feel of those old R lenses, especially on the robust new SL body.
Photography. What does it mean to you?
Photography is a remarkably intimate conversation, despite it’s ubiquity today. It is a way of instantaneously mirroring love of life and awe of experience with others around the globe. Often the camera sees even more than I do. The camera captures stars beyond the threshold of eyesight or the shy eye of a village woman through her veil. The old lenses balance detail and light phenomena with such grace. I would hope my work transcends genre to convey a deep respect for all life. The more I photograph in different places the more sameness and unity I see in the world. My work ranges from minimalist conceptual imagery to medical clinic and humanitarian documentary, mountaineering/adventure, portraits, natural world, urban environment and night work. A camera is by my side all the time, whether I am trekking 150 Himalayan miles or am at home. It is my practice to see the other side of the world as home and home as the other side of the world. Presence is the unifier, rather than a single genre.

10,001,814 | up for every photographic moment, showing up to the hard work of editing, image management and marketing. Showing up for years at galleries, photography gatherings, at Leica in LA, New York, Tokyo and wherever red dots appear, making friends and genuinely appreciating other photographer’s work. Showing up when invited almost out of the blue to “Broad Strokes” by Paris Chong and Cat Jimenez, showing up during installation and of course the high-energy opening, making images during the show then hitting the streets the very next day, camera in hand. Photography is 100% passion, inspiration, technology and way of thinking. Involvement demands presence – showing up all the time.
Please share with us the body of work you’re exhibiting at Broad Strokes – how was the curation process?
I work internationally and “Broad Strokes” offers a glimpse of my ongoing California images, enthusiastically selected by the curator, Paris Chong. The ten pieces range from north to south, urban to landscape, graphic to pictorial, wide angle to detail. All of the images have a deeper story, for example the simple white picket fence in “Indiana Homage” was Dennis Hopper’s fence; we were neighbors for several years on Indiana Avenue and I always felt this sweet/sharp, hospitable/defensive, edgy/iconic bit of Americana symbolized him. “Surf Lotus” is stacked surfboards, a play on the real and idealized bliss of surfing. “West Washington Window” appears as a painterly reflection of palm trees until you notice the bullet hole, a reference to the endless summer/gang culture dichotomy of Venice. A sense of luminous light and deep, grounded shadow unites the seemingly disparate subjects.
You’ve been involved with Leica for a long time now, using your grandfather’s equipment on your many projects. What’s been the evolution of the brand for you? How has it impacted your photography?
Leica is a lifetime interest. I have used many other cameras extensively, including Nikon and the latest Sony systems, but every click is a reminder of why I love Leica. Leica has repeatedly earned my loyalty with the consistency of hardware interface, precision optics and image aesthetics over decades and vastly different camera models. Leicas capture how I see rather than merely what I see. A photographer’s aesthetic should | [

10,001,815 | be about strength of vision, not changes in gear, because strength of vision is key to creating a consistent body of work over a lifetime. Leica has a remarkable approach of integration rather than planned obsolescence of it’s own products, for example, integrating the 145 R, M, S and Cine lenses into the new SL system. This has allowed me to use my much-loved older lenses for a classic, consistent look on the newest camera with the most up-to-date functionality.
This exhibition showcases the work of women photographers; how do you envision women’s participation in the field of photography? How has it evolved?
Lastly, what other projects are you working on right now and is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers?
Photography is a practice of constant presence so I am always working on the full range, from conceptual photography to street to travel and humanitarian stories. I believe in the very real power of photography to help people, raising awareness as well as creating beauty. When the 2015 earthquake stuck Nepal my images of the high, remote Gorkha district were organized into Beautiful Resilience, the Enduring Spirit of Upper Gorkha Nepal. Sales were used to re-roof a village affected by the earthquake and provide hundreds of winter blankets, http://www.amazon.com/Beautiful-Resilience-Cira-Crowell/dp/0996238832. A video of the story is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qOeUiKOzVse. I will be working on fine art images until later this year when my next big project will be a third medical trek, one hundred and fifty miles by foot into Western Nepal with www.nomadsclinic.org. I also just launched a new Instagram micro-blog called LeicaCrush for tips, hacks and thoughts on the SL and life as a longtime Leica user, https://www.instagram.com/leicacrush.
Cira Crowell (M.A. Savannah College of Art and Design) uses photography, illustration and animation to explore the phenomena of intrinsic and extrinsic light. Her recent travels include Iceland, India, Bhutan, Japan and remote Himalayan Nepal where she has trekked over 350 miles on foot documenting humanitarian missions. Cira recently enjoyed a solo show at Robert Berman Gallery in Santa Monica and Tibet House | [

Her photography books include: 108 Visions: Ladakh During the Kalachakra, Envisioning Ecstasy and Beautiful Resilience: The Enduring Spirit of Upper Gorkha Nepal, a unique archive of pre-earthquake images documenting the beauty and culture of the areas devastated by the massive 2015 Gorkha Quake.
Cira’s connection with Leica began in 1939 when her grandfather purchased a Leica IIIC. Fifty years later she inherited his lifetime love of photography and Leica gear, which she still uses. Whether in the city or on the trail Cira continues to work with Leica cameras because of their unique accuracy handling challenging light situations.
To know more about Cira’s work, please visit her official website, and follow her on Instagram and Facebook.
Interesting interview with a selection of great images. Interesting web site of the artist, worthwhile to visit.
Superb images, very inspiring . I even read the article because of the them and it is a rare thing in my case. Could somebody explain me the technicality behind the fence shot as I am not completly sure how to achieve it?
I’m a graduate photographer from a small town in South Africa. I know you went back to check if you saw village or town. Haha I live in a town.
Here there’s not much happening, not much to inspire, nothing but still the same things I grew up seeing or playing with.
So whenever I feel or rather not feeling inspired enough I pick up my camera (unfortunately my late uncle’s Leica died and still running on student budgets) and run well actually walk into the swamp near my house. Or what I really love doing, creating miniature worlds. All that just for photographs.
The internet is where I get my biggest inspiration. Where I can ‘meet’ all the worlds photographers.
I’ve met Cira so many times before.
Inspiring Interview with great article. Previously I saw some Cira Crowell video in YouTube. Thanks for your article. | [

10,001,824 | A landmark for ruling for jewellery designers and brands has been passed today, with The Intellectual Property Act becoming law, meaning it is now a crime to intentionally infringe on a registered design.
The changes set out in The Intellectual Property Act have been introduced to reduce the scale of registered design infringement by acting as a deterrent. The changes also increase protection for the holders of registered designs and better punish perpetrators of blatant design infringement. The new Act also outlines that individual board directors can be held accountable for infringement.
The Act means that intentionally infringing a registered design and producing a copy that differs from an original in only immaterial respects now becomes a criminal offence punishable by up to 10 years in prison.
The IP Act has been described as "a significant development for designers" but for the time being the change in the law will only assist those designers who have registered their designs at either theIntellectual Property Office in England or at the Community Design Office in Alicante. It does not cover unregistered designs.
The scale of the problem relating to designers being copied by larger brands has been the focus on a long-term campaign by Anti-Copying in Design (ACID ), spanning several years. ACID has consistently supported the appeal to the Government to make edits to the IP Act with case studies, demonstrating the scale of the problem while addressing the shortfall in laws to protect designers.
Over the past few years, ACID members have written to their MPs to make them aware of the impact that design theft was having on the job security of their employees and the threat to their growth opportunities. Several ACID members also met with Government officials and Ministers to add their weight to the argument for reform. The case was taken through to the House of Lords and then House of Commons, with the Bill receiving the Queen’s Assent on May 14 2014.
ACID chief executive Dids Macdonald added: "I welcome the fact that the IP Bill is a significant step in the right direction. However, there is still much work to be done because the majority of UK designers rely on unregistered rights.
"Way back in 1996 when ACID was just a round table action group, I gave a talk along with design law specialist and co-founder of ACID, Simon Clark, saying we needed design issues to be heard and acknowledged within Government and a change of law to bring design in line with copyright. Little did I think it would take 18 years to happen. Next step is | [

10,001,827 | If you want to reduce or even remove your acne, try sleeping on a fresh towel every night. This works because oils and dirt will build up on your pillow case over time. Putting your face into contact with this build-up will cause blemishes, pimples, and blackheads. Having a fresh towel to sleep on insures there will be no dirt or oils, along with the bonus of having a clean towel for your morning showers!
To help rid your skin of acne, drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. Drinking water can help carry the waste material that causes acne and blackheads out of your body and work to flush out your skin. This will help clear your skin of blemishes and blackheads.
When trying to cure acne, stay away from alcohol, whether you consume it or use products containing alcohol. Alcohol's astringent properties work to strip away the top layer of the skin, this causes an increase in oil production. Oil works to clog your pores and cause blemishes and blackheads.
To reduce the irritation that your body produces, stay calm as often as possible during the day. Increased levels of stress and anxiety can lead to an overproduction in oil on your skin. This excess oil can result in the blocking of your pores, creating more blemishes and blackheads on your skin.
If you have acne-prone skin, chose a moisturizer labeled oil-free, non-acnegenic or noncomedogenic. This type of moisturizer is less lightly to clog pores and cause whiteheads, blackheads, pimples and cysts. In addition, lotions or gels tend to be lighter, so stay away from creams unless you have very dry skin and want a heavy moisturizing product. | [

10,001,829 | to comment upon the ad visability uf introducing the Bible in the schools. These matters were very fully-, debated at the recent "Trustees' Convention, and as might-be expected, from many varying viewpoints. \ resolution asking that 'The.Lord's Prayer" be made a ' compulsory.part of EDITORIAL every opening was defeated. It was generally conceded that in the great majority of class-rooms it was always included in the opening exercises. One inspector stated that he had never in his experience ucen in a class-room where it had been omitted. Arising out uf a private conversation on this matter, a parent, who certainly has the best interests of the schools at heart, presented an idea which, we, think, might well receive the serious consideration of., every teacher in the Province. To make the Prayer compulsory might be construed as an infringement of the right of conscience of the' teacher, but the important question is, "Has the child or the parent any rights in this connection?" ft is granted that if a teacher does not desire to say "The Lord's Prayer" on opening, he should not be expected to do so. But is it granted that because one teacher does not wish to open by this Prayer, that perhaps thirty or forty pupils who would like to do so, should be prohibited by reason of the teacher's personal opinion. Might we not, as teachers, settle this question without anv legislation, by adopting the following plan : Upon opening school let the teacher have till pupils stand and allow nil who desire to say the Lord's Prayer to do so. the teacher joining or not. as he or she so desires. 'This would deprive no one of the opportunity of commencing the day's work by invoking the Divine blessing in the words of our most familiar.prayer, and it would allow at the. same time, full liberty of conscience to all pupils, parents and teachers. A phase of this subject, which 1 probably litis been overlooked. J>v ; _sonuv is made very clear by the following true incident: A pupil who had always previously been in class-rooms where, the Lord's Prayer was said, was promoted to a room where such was not the practice. After a few daws' had passed, she said to her 11 lot her,- "Why do we - not have t lie I.or,d's I.'raver: in our room, mother? 'We | [

Issociate Professor of Education and Director of llxtramurul Conrses DELEGATES from over forty countries came to. gethcr in San Francisco, June 2<S, at the call of the National Education Association of the United States, held public meetings, witnessed a pageant, deliberated in group and plenary sessions for a week, adopted thirty resolutions, founded the World Federation of Educational Associations, sang Auld Lang Syne with hands clasped in token of fealty, and went their several ways. That in brief is the story of wdtat happened as the result of the appointment during the (treat War of a committee on foreign relations by our Association. And as a fitting sequel and a happy augury of the future, our Association accepted the report of its committee, applied for..membership in the new federation, and became the first charter member and tlic corner-stone of the new organization. Few in America expected it. Many foreign countries are in distress. At least twp so-called international congresses on education to be held in-europe were announced. Hardly any definite facts upon which to base a prediction were known. San Francisco is a long way from New York, and the trip for English and Continental delegates would be very much more expensive on that account. The National Education Association, moreover, had only a comparatively small amount of money available for the use of the Conference and funds from other quarters were not forthcoming as had been hoped. Nevertheless it happened. Representative*; were sent by the Imperial Education Association of Japan, the government of China. The Canadian Teachers' Federation, and by the great teachers councils of England and' Scotland. 11 err Strecker. minister of Education in Hesse, was there: Miss Johanne Rietry;, of Indo-China; Miss Tlansa Mehta, of India; Dr. M.

How the Conference Proceeded The work of the Conference went forward by means of three types of gatherings. There were, first and last, the public mass meetings, at which the larger purposes and possibilities of the Conference and the problems and aspirations of the various countries were set forth by their ablest representatives: The Hall of Native Sons in San Francisco was ablaze with the flags of all nations, and crowded to suffocation when the first meeting opened on the evening of June 2S. The foreign delegates occupied the central section before the stage, and banked around them were the American delegates, the. advance guard of the National Education Association convention, and the good people of San Francisco all eager to see and hear. The thrill was there unmistakably. No one who was so fortunate as to be present will ever forget it. The assembling of many races and nationalities in the interest of the common welfare, of which air truists had dreamed, was a living reality. Tt had happened and for the time that was enough. The orchestra ceased. Mr. Show-alter prayed, ending in the Lord's Prayer in which nearly all joined.
5 reflection of California's sunny skies, was everywhere. Nothing- can excel California's hospitality at its best. To Archie J. Cloud, deputy superintendent of schools in San Francisco, chairman of the local committee of arrangements for the World Conference, belongs the chief praise fur the provisions made for the comfort of the delegates, and he was ably seconded by the teachers, the principals, and the board of education of the city. The names of those who gave of their time anil strength unselfishly to the work of the convention must be numbered by scores. Only a few of them will ever be honored as they deserve. There was little self-seeking and little thought of proferment only the desire to give all representatives a chance to be heard and earnest hope that friendship and good understanding might be promoted.

The places of meeting as well as the dates will be chosen by the Board of Directors. The future of the World Federation is now on the knees of the gods. Agreement upon ways and means of doing things will be much more difficult than agreement upon resolutions. Presently there will be loaves and fishes. The language difficulty, when wider representation from say Spanish-American countries is present will increase. Imagine, for example, a session in Mexico City. The initial feeling that we must get together at all costs, will be succeeded by strong desires for the carrying out of pet ideas. Large societies may feel that their dues are out of all proportion to their representation. Some or all of these difficulties seem inevitable. The next stop is obviously to secure the widest publicity as to the work and results of the World Conference. Plans are on foot for the translation and dissemination of the report of proceedings and the resolutions in all civilized countries.

The donor of this generous gift watched the proceedings : of the World Conference on Education, which met in San Francisco in June and July,.and believes that lasting peace can come only through education. He desires to encourage a 'movement, calculated to-promote, 'riendliness; aniongenations. The World Federation of Education Associations Tlie World Federation gratefully acknowledges the generous gift tobe used in furthering-the world's greatestcausc and 'accepts the offer-in the spirit which actuates the giver; The Federation joins the donor.'he belief that such a reformation as the award is to promote must await the longer processes of.-: education. t accepts a No the belief that textbook material- and teaching attitude- are all cwntial, and avly. I»an proposed must have as its principal object the bringing about _ f,f :l, a u. r understanding between nations with the elimination of hatreds, both and national. The Peace Plan racial A plan of education calculated to produce world amity is desired. There is a distinct difference between this plan and the one called by that distinguished citizen and generous donor, Mr. Edward Bok, inasmuch as this contest calls for a world-wide program of - education which will promote the peace of the world.

10,001,848 | I was talking with a friend recently about books and we got on to the subject of favourite books from our childhood.
One of my favourites is Adam's Ark by Paul Stewart. A book I read for the first time when I was about 10.
It's a beautifully written book about a young boy Adam, who is diagnosed as autistic at birth. He doesn't communicate with those around his despite many attempts.
When he is four, his Mum gets him a cat called Oscar, with whom he can "think-talk". Oscar helps him to start to communicate to the world around him and Adam discovers his special ability goes beyond his relationship with his cat.
Whilst trying to understand his gift and his place in the world, Adam soon discovers terrible things are happening and it falls to him and Oscar to help.
I always loved the idea that someone we would consider to have special needs actually had special powers. This story is beautifully written and has an incredibly powerful message. Although written for children, I am sure many grown ups would enjoy it too.
Being a cat lover, Oscar is my hero. I wish I could use telepathy with my kitties, imagine what we could get up to?!
I find reading books from my past help me to escape the day to day of adult life and children's books can take you back to the time when you initially read them.
Which are your favourite books from childhood?
Do you re-read them now?
I'd love to hear about the books you've read over the years. | [

The "green" in Green Monday doesn't refer to the environment, unless that environment is a tank full of money. EBay's Shopping.com comparison site coined the term "Green Monday" in 2007 to refer to its own best sales day in December, traditionally the second Monday of that month.
Some retail circles borrow the phrase Green Monday while others call it Cyber Monday II or Second Chance Monday. Whatever the name, it's a good time to shop online and still have plenty of time to receive shipments by Christmas or Hanukkah.

10,001,852 | For those of you who are still searching for the perfect gift for that techie gal (or guy) in your life, we are pleased to present the first Student Affairs Women Talk Tech Holiday Gift Guide.
The Ladybug SD Card Reader comes recommended by Daria for its cuteness and price.
Amber says the $10 she spent on the Portable Cooling Station was the best money she ever spent on a tech item.
From Colleen come two stocking stuffers for the tech items we already have: a lighted Kindle cover and privacy screen covers for the iPhone.
Speaking of iPhones, all I (Brenda) want for Christmas is a pair of iPhone-friendly gloves so that I can use my phone and keep my fingers warm at the same time.
Keyboard case for the iPad owner, specifically this one (you can find others on Amazon for around the same price or a little more inexpensive, although not by much). A keyboard can turn an iPad into a blogging machine.
iTunes gift card for the iPod/iPhone/iPad owner – Anyone with one of these devices can quickly blow $10 – $50 bucks on music, movies, or applications. It’s hard to go wrong with one of these.
Bluetooth speaker. Every time an iPod/iPhone owner buys a speaker, it ends completely useless once the iPod/iPhone is upgraded. With a Bluetooth speaker system, one can upgrade my iPhone/iPod without having to buy a new speaker each time. Kristen is hopeful that she will find one of these under the tree (hint, hint).
I would also like the iPhone friendly gloves! There are some that you don’t even have to remove the finger – they have pads on the finger tips. Any gloves that don’t require taking them completely off to use your phone would be an improvement, though!
I just thought these were cute–I also like the ones you don’t have to take off. | [

10,001,853 | What type of laser do you use for hair removal?
We will be using the Candella Gentlemax Pro, which is widely recognized as one of the top lasers for hair removal. Choosing a company with the correct laser will increase results and reduce the amount of treatments needed.
Can I have a laser hair removal treatment performed if I’m pregnant?
Please let us know of any medical changes before each treatment especially if you are pregnant. Treatments will not be performed on any pregnant woman. However, you can be treated if you are breastfeeding.
Lasers are a controlled manufactured high energy source that is very safe and effective in the hands of a trained technician. Our primary consideration is the safety and effectiveness of your treatment. Sam has performed thousands of procedures and has been certified by The National Laser Institute.
There is no way to determine the exact number of treatments necessary to complete the laser process. Many factors go into creating the best treatment protocol for each individual. Hair and skin color, area being treated, texture and density of hair, age, etc. The typical individual will need 8 treatments for a good reduction and between 9 and 12 treatments for most of the hair to be gone. Sometimes this number is more or less depending on the individual.
Can I get treated if I’m tan?
It is not safe to perform laser hair removal on tan skin or on skin that has a spray or artificial tan.
Will laser hair removal work on dark skin?
Yes, we can safely treat dark or ethnic skin with our Yag Laser Settings.
Lasers are attracted to the pigment in the hair. The smaller the concentration of pigment, the less effective the treatment. For this reason, blondes, white, light red, and grey hair may have little or no response.
How should I prepare for treatments?
The area being treated must be clean shaven within 24 hours of the treatment. Do not apply any creams, ointments, or deodorant to the area. Do not wax, pluck, or nair within 4 weeks of the treatment, the hair must be in the follicle at skin level for the laser to “see” it. No sun exposure, tanning booths, or spray tan for 6 weeks prior to the treatment.
Can I get treated if I am under a doctor’s care?
There are a number of drugs, topical ointments, and physical conditions that | [

Oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB) is one of the major by-products of palm oil production. This lignocellulosic biomass is commonly used as a fertilizer at oil palm plantations. Unfortunately, the composting process of EFB is very slow. This study aimed to identify potential lignocellulosic microbes isolated from EFB. This information is essential for improving EFB biodegradation process by reducing the decomposition time. Samples of approximately 6, 12, and 24-month-old EFB were obtained from two palm oil mills in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. The isolation of lignocellulytic microbes utilized selective medium cellulose congo red agar (CCRA) while its characterization used lignin agar (LgA) and oil palm empty fruit bunches agar (EFBCRA). As much as 430 isolates were successfully collected and 12 of them exhibited promising capability to synthesize lignocellulolytic enzyme, the key for FEB degradation. | [

10,001,860 | Do you have a hard time keeping your small children seated at the dinner table? Do you find yourself perpetually coaxing them to eat their meal?
Mealtime with toddlers isn’t the most relaxing experience you can go through, but it doesn’t always have to be stressful. There are ways to make family mealtimes calmer and happier even with a willful toddler around.
You have to be radical to solve the issue. Go to the root to see why toddlers typically exhibit a low interest in mealtimes. In knowing the cause, you diminish a big percentage of your stress. Solutions fortunately also ensue.
Why do toddlers seem less interested in mealtime than they were as babies?
It’s typical for this stage of toddler development. They have a smaller appetite now that they’re not growing as quickly.
They’re trying out their independence and tend to use their favorite word “no” with gusto.
They want to practice their increasing movement skills and prefer to play and explore more than sit down and eat.
The world has become an exciting place with so many fascinating things to discover for the little adventurers. This is why the dinner table is often a battle zone between toddlers who want to escape it and parents who are determined to keep them there.
As a parent, you want to get the power struggle to cease. At the same time, you want to enjoy your victory by seeing your children enjoy their meal.
How can you achieve calm and happy mealtimes with little ones who are bent on making it difficult for everybody? Here are some tried and tested strategies.
1. Make time for transition.
Toddlers are likely playing right before they’re called to the table. Getting them to disengage can take time – and tears. Don’t expect them to snap to feeding mode right away.
It’s better to allow them time to gradually switch gears. Introduce the change and give them a few minutes to get used to the idea.
2. Ease into the meal with a ritual.
A cue that dinner’s about to start also helps. It can be switching to softer dinner lights, ringing the dinner bell, or assigning somebody to say grace.
Family traditions are healthy, warming, and precious for children to be exposed to. A little dinner ritual like this certainly contributes to the list. In this case, it� | [

Your children will learn to look forward to it as part of the mealtime experience.
3. Have a bunch of distraction tactics at the ready.
Toddlers may lose interest mid-stream, so be ready to redirect their attention.
When they start expressing their desire to leave the table, you can start entertaining them with a story or a song about something that’s on the table. You can goofily pretend to be the peas inviting your toddler to try them out. You can try some impromptu artwork and form a face or a flower using the food on their plate.
Get creative and use your imagination.
4. Compromise and allow a toy.
To make toddlers more comfortable with settling down for a meal, let them have something that will keep them happy staying put at the table.
Feeding experts say this is okay for toddlers. The usual cut-off age is at four to five years old when they’ll naturally stop needing it.
5. Include your children in the conversation.
With young children, mealtime is not the best time for the adults to discuss topics of their interest, such as the bills, the people they know, current events and politics, etc.
Nothing makes young children antsier to leave the table than being excluded from the conversation and having the grownups talking over their heads.
Focus your attention on your kids and get ready to talk about the things that engage their curiosity.
Let them exercise independence by giving them a choice of which available food to eat and letting them decide how much to eat.
Schedule snacks hours before mealtime so they don’t ruin their appetite.
Keep servings small and let them indicate if they want more.
Be patient and calm when they make a mess, when they refuse new food, or when they start whining; it’s normal toddler behavior.
Avoid negative food messages by labeling them as “good” or “bad” (use “everyday” or “sometimes” instead) and by using them to reward or punish.
It may be against their nature, but you can get your little ones to sit still long enough to eat their dinner. They will be difficult, but the tone of the meal rests on your response.
Mealtimes with toddlers will never be a leisurely walk at the park, but with some preparation and | [

10,001,864 | The University of Sheffield is today (Monday 2 December 2013) continuing to remove the barriers to higher education for people across the world with a new and exciting online dentistry course which is free and accessible to all.
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are transforming education giving everyone the unique opportunity to take part in a high quality, flexible and innovative learning experience.
The University has teamed up with FutureLearn, the first UK-led MOOCs provider of free, open, online higher education courses, to launch Discover Dentistry – an entertaining and illuminating course which explores the impact dentistry has on our lives.
Discover Dentistry will enlighten learners with the truth about teeth – from the importance of a smile and how to fix broken teeth, to the letters and numbers called out by the dentist during a check-up and how dentures are made.
Participants will interact with experts from the School of Clinical Dentistry from the comfort of their own homes and learn about all aspects of the profession - starting with the public perception of dentistry, to the sometimes gruesome history of the job. The MOOC will give younger learners the unique opportunity to learn more about the subject which is not taught in schools, whilst an older audience have the chance to discover fascinating facts about their pearly whites.
Throughout the course innovative exercises will help to demystify the various roles and activities within a dental practice, and explore how common dental diseases and problems are treated by talking to professionals and watching them work.
Dr Chris Stokes, from the Academic Unit of Restorative Dentistry who is teaching Discover Dentistry, said this course is for everyone.
"Whether you are an aspiring dentist, or want to learn about the interesting multidisciplinary world of looking after smiles, we are inviting anyone with an interest in the subject to join us for an entertaining and insightful exploration of your mouth and the people who care for it," said Dr Stokes.
"Lots of people would like to learn a bit more about what is happening when they go to the dentist. Running a course online means that we are able to offer this opportunity to people around the world – we are not limited by geography or class size."
A number of other intriguing MOOCs covering a broad spectrum of exciting subjects are already lined up for 2014.

10,001,867 | Officially launched on Thursday, the Pastoralist Livelihoods and Education Field Schools (PLEFS) and the Pastoralist Education Program Strategy Framework will reportedly offer active and constructivist approach tailored to meet the needs of adults, youth and children in pastoralists’ communities.
Serge Tissot, the FAO Representative in South Sudan, said PLEFS, the first of its kind in South Sudan, will provide pastoralists with sustainable and high-quality learning opportunities as they move.
"The partnership between the three line ministries, FAO and UNESCO is unique and has realized a way for marginalized communities to access vital services in challenging conditions," said Tissot.
"FAO is committed to strengthening livelihoods, and integrating basic literacy and numeracy skills into the field school approach really improves pastoralists’ way of life," he added.
The program, officials said, is currently being implemented by FAO and UNESCO in the central regions and it will be brought to other pastoral communities across the country in the near future.
"It is our long-term vision to see to it that pastoralist communities receive adequate services and infrastructure to improve their livelihoods," said James Janka Duku, Minister of Livestock and Fisheries.
Illiteracy rates are high in South Sudan, a country that broke away from Sudan in July 2011. More than 80% of the South Sudanese population, UN estimates show, cannot read or write. Also, according to the UN Children Fund (UNICEF), fewer than 1% of girls in South Sudan complete primary education. | [

10,001,876 | In the very beginning of the third season title sequence, Trevor unveils what appears to be a giant floating "thing" enshrouded in a tarp, only revealing a giant eye in the front. It is like a giant parade balloon, and is surrounded by rows of marching scientists. What do you think is going on here? Does it have anything to do with Trevor's statement "The dream: to awaken the world."? Does it have anything to do with Aeon's bombing scene in the end of the title sequence? This is something that has intrigued me since the dawn of the third season.
Question 1:what is going on? I have no earthly idea and i don't think the viewer is supposed to know. It lends to the air of mystery in the show. The only thing we do know know is that it is one of Trevor's plots to "awaken the world". Trevor stands high above them like a king, then retreats into his own little Aeon-obsessed world Question 2:Does it have anything to do with aeons bombing? The opening theme doesn't really have a plot in and of its self. If you watch aeon's fall as she twists and turns in the air to avoid the darts being shot at her, you'll see trevor standing in an opening in the wall watching her. she doesn't even notice this(this may, by the way, symbolize Trevors cameras and the way he sees everything that goes on in Bregna) Anyway, it would be impossible get from his whitehouse-type tower to that corridor as quickly as he did, which leads me to believe that it happened on a later date and therefor had nothing to do with the tarp thing. The opening sequence is just a string of sureal images with no real meaning(except to show Trevors power, Aeons acrobatics and bombing skills, and the metaphor of the scorpions fighting on a broken glass of wine to perhaps illustrate thier love/hate relationship). The real meaning is in the dialouge.
i just downloaded the intro clip and found something very interesting. I quoted 'the dream to awaken teh world' a few times but thats not teh quote! The real quote is "the dream to awaken our world" IT doesn't seem to be much different, but it can mean something totally different. our world, teh world of perceptions, different with every invid | [

I think it shows that Aeon is a massive factor of chaos in Trevor's 'dream'... notice the orderly rows of soldiers, and the bright colors, in contrast with Aeon herself.

I definitly think the eye has some kinda hidden metaphor in it. If you notice The eye at the start with flies around it, then later it focuses in on Trevor's eye and you see Aeon running, near the end when Aeon is doing that flip sequence at the very end, the bomb looks like an eye, then of coarse the famous Aeon's eye and the fly. I really don't know what it's trying to tell viewers maybe the flies symbolize chaos (Aeon) and how she is everywhere; and only Aeon can harness this chaos. The I agree symbolizes trevors power, and how he always knows what Aeon is doing.

Me and my Flux-o-phile friends have an Aeon drinking game. Everytime the camera does a microscopic close-up of someone's eye, we take a drink. Two drinks if it's two eyes. First one unconcious buys next time.
That doesn't sound very ladylike!

i WISH i WOULD HAVE READ THIs post a long time ago. Maybe the giant eye is to catch flys and the sceintists built it. Then you see the sleek and efficeint work of a person who spends most of her time building herself and acompishes the goal with realative ease.

10,001,882 | (Reuters) - Russia and Turkey agreed on Monday that they needed to take decisive measures to stabilize the situation in Syria’s Idlib province after talks between the two country’s defense ministers، Russia’s RIA news agency reported.
The announcement، made after talks between Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar in Ankara and outlined in a joint statement، did not specify what the decisive measures would be or when they might be taken.
The statement was released ahead of a Syrian summit between the leaders of Turkey، Russia and Iran in Russia on Thursday.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu earlier this year said Moscow had floated the idea of Russia and Turkey mounting a joint operation to push militants out of Idlib، but did not say how Ankara felt about the idea. | [

It was a tough decision because I felt fairly successful in my first career and lucky to have a good position right out of college, but in my heart, I longed for a career with more purpose, creativity, and a genuine ability to change people’s lives.
When I initially shared the reasons for going back to college to get a second degree so I could go into teaching, I think people thought I was a little too idealistic about the world of public education. I was aware of some of the harsher realities (curriculum, standardized testing), but I also felt that I genuinely had the opportunity to do some good and make a difference.
Student teaching was a very grounding and enlightening experience for me. I was assigned to an urban middle school that was very different from any of my personal schooling experience. I was born and raised in Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom, and moved to the United States my junior year of high school. I attended high school on the shoreline of Connecticut. My experience was unique in some ways, but I had never encountered some of the issues that urban school districts face. I was terrified that I wouldn’t be able to make a connection with the kids or be able to get through to them because I had not encountered some of the difficulties that they have and never struggled in school. However, I learned that being honest and genuine was the best approach. I’ve subsequently introduced myself to every single class I have ever taught, explaining why I became a teacher. It is important to me that they know it was a choice.
I have done my best to be myself in the classroom. That is what works best because I am not trying to be someone I am not or trying to win favor with my students. Being genuine, realistic, and open with my students has won their trust and their trust allows me to be a better educator.
Teaching has taught me that we all have something to share, offer, and teach. A lot of my job goes beyond the realm of teacher. Anyone who believes teachers simply deliver instructional material has not set foot in a classroom. I have learned that I can’t inspire change or champion strength, kindness, and perseverance if I am not doing the same. I share with my students when I am | [

10,001,884 | feeling overwhelmed with work for my graduate school classes. I want them to know that those feelings are normal and that we all doubt our capabilities and feel rushed or stressed, but we can get through it. I talk to them about gratitude and being positive and doing the right thing. I published a young adult novel, and shared that experience alongside my students. They know that my schedule is crazy (I teach full-time during the day and in night school two evenings a week, and run half marathons). They know I spend my breaks pumping milk for my still-nursing daughter and I eat lunch at my desk, but they also know that I love my job and I care about their education and their success. I want to lead by example, and I’ve realized that I don’t need to be anyone but myself to do that.
It took listening to my students for me to realize that I do make a difference and I do influence them. I have realized that my words and my actions and my teaching do make a difference. I see it firsthand in my students. I created a novel writing project, where my students wrote novels in conjunction with National Novel Writing Month, and I led them through the editing process and self-publishing their books. The looks on their faces when those books arrived is something that I will never forget. We had a book-publishing reveal event that our faculty, Board of Education, and superintendent attended. The students were beaming with pride. I teach in a high-school-credit diploma program and many students have dropped out at some point for varying reasons. They have had doors closed on them, sometimes because of their choices and sometimes at the hands of others. They have not experienced success, and often equate education with difficulty. But in that moment, it was all about their hard work and accomplishment. It was one of those moments you read about. Those are the moments when you realize you are doing it right.
Once you start looking for your successes, you see them more and more. This is important for teachers, because it drives us to keep working as hard as we can for our students. I see it in the community we create here. I see it when students walk back through my classroom door after graduating with a story of what they are doing now: a new job, a training program, community college.
We have a student who graduated and went on to a tech school and works in H | [

He moved to Florida, got a great apartment, and is raising his two young children with his girlfriend. He calls every few months just to say hello and thank you. Last time I talked to him, he said “Hey Miss, I just wanted to say hi and thank you and I will never forget you guys. Life is great down here. Tell your students to graduate!” Those ten seconds made me feel like a millionaire, a celebrity, someone influential. The experiences in my classroom truly transcend these four walls and I was a part of that. | [

10,001,886 | A demonstration organized by the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan took place in Amman on Friday, March 29, to denounce the US decision to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights. Thousands of protesters gathered in front of the Grand Husseini Mosque. Protesters also denounced Israeli control over East Jerusalem and called for the protection of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the third holiest site in Islam, located in Jerusalem.
Similar protests are possible in Amman over the coming days. A heightened security presence and localized traffic disruptions are to be expected near protest sites.
The demonstration took place as Palestinian protesters are organizing mass protests in Gaza and at the Gazan-Israeli border to mark the anniversary of the "Great March of Return" on March 29-30.
Individuals in Amman are advised to monitor developments to the situation, avoid all protests and demonstrations as a precaution, and adhere instructions issued by local authorities. | [

10,001,887 | Renovating a home can often be the dream for some people. Putting their own DIY touches on a place and bringing a run down property back to life. People will often do this to create the home they want to live in or simply sell them on to boost their own income. Whatever your motive it’s worth remembering that renovating property is no easy journey. So I thought it would be worth sharing with you some things to remember if you are currently in the process of renovating or about to embark on this crazy journey.
When you start out with any project to this scale, it’s worth spending some time focused on the financials. It’s easy to get ahead of yourself with grand plans to knock walls down or add square footage, but do you have the funds in place to do all that? It’s never an easy conversation to have, but certainly one you will be thankful for as you enter into the process of renovating and subsequently spending the money.
Failure to prepare and plan is preparing to fail. Or something like that, but the point I am trying to make is that if you don’t have a plan or idea of what you want to do, then your project will come to a standstill. Time in this game costs you money so lay down your plans right from the start. Have a clear vision of what you want to do, and then seek some advice from a contractor or architect to ensure that what you want to do is possible.
I know I have just made a point about planning and preparing, but sometimes the best-laid plans won’t go as you think they will. So accepting early on that you may have to take a different road or a longer time to get where you want to be is key to managing disappointment and your expectation levels. Sometimes those things that do go wrong could add more expense that you hadn’t planned on, so in times of emergencies it’s worth remembering there are other options from places like Swift Money to help you out.
It is always important to be realistic when renovating a property. The timescale in which a project will go from start to completion is one of those areas you need to be realistic with. You need to account for weather conditions, things taking longer than planned and things that could go wrong. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself and work on a worst case scenario. That way you should be | [

In addition to classic service contents (public transport / timetable information search, navigation and overview for the areas of gastronomy, shopping, shopping, culture, sights, parking garages, hotels and much more), the offer is extended with virtual and augmented reality. This offers a completely new city app experience.
"MAINZ" invites you to a virtual city experience in the capital of Rhineland-Palatinate. Experience a special tour of the city on the Rhine and find out about all the sights, accommodation, shopping and gastronomy on offer. With the official and free Mainz App you can experience the highlights of the city on site and at home and are always "up to date".

The project uses OpenCV for retrieving the camera stream, which is later rendered using OpenGL and an advanced pixel-shader. The behavior of this shader is controlled by an attached MIDI controller, which in combination with a movable camera provides an easy and intuitive way how to interact with the process that generates the images. Audio can also be used to change the filter parameters resulting in visuals that react to volume and/or frequency of the recorded sound. | [

10,001,891 | Although the B2B market could deliver significant revenue growth, most telcos' enterprise businesses are not delivering their full potential. In this report we analyse the reasons why and outline how telcos can build a successful B2B strategy.
The telecom industry’s growth profile over the last few years is a sobering sight. As we have shown in our recent report Which operator growth strategies will remain viable in 2017 and beyond?, yearly revenue growth rates have been clearly slowing down globally since 2009 (see Figure 1). In three major regions (North America, Europe, Middle East) compound annual growth rates have even been behind GDP growth.
To break out of this decline telcos are constantly searching for new sources of revenue, for example, by expanding into adjacent, digital service areas which are largely placed within mass consumer markets (e.g. content, advertising, commerce).
However, in our ongoing conversations with telecoms operators, we increasingly come across the notion that a large part of future growth potential might actually lie in B2B (business-to-business) markets and that this customer segment will have an increasing impact of overall revenue growth.
What is the current state of telco’s B2B business?
Where are the telco growth opportunities in the wider enterprise ICT arena?
What makes an enterprise ICT growth strategy difficult for telcos to execute?
What are the pillars of a successful strategy for future B2B growth?

10,001,894 | Alexander “The Mauler” Gustafsson (16-4) lost in the UFC 192 main event to the current UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier (17-1) in an absolute war. Even though Gustafsson lost his second opportunity at UFC gold, Fox Sport’s Elias Cepeda defended Alexander’s performance in a great write-up. Ellis echoed what most thinks as Gustafsson is indeed a beltless champion.
“Alexander Gustafsson proved once again Saturday night in the UFC 192 main event that he is one of the very best and most well-rounded fighters in MMA history.
Unfortunately, for all that he is, he still doesn’t own a world championship.
It has to all be dishearteningly familiar for the challenger. In 2013 he went through something very similar when he lost a decision to then champion Jon Jones.
Gustafsson admitted to having considered retirement after the loss to Johnson. The title shot against Cormier motivated him to get back to work.
If Gustafsson once again considers retirement, hopefully it is because he’s got enough money to do so, or because he knows his body and brain can use the rest after a lifetime of hard training. It shouldn’t be out of darkness or disappointment.
Fighting Alexander Gustafsson tests the best in the world like they never were before, and makes them better men. Watching “The Mauler” fight makes us all better fans.
There may not be enough title belts or treasure to go around, but there were no losers in Saturday’s championship fight. Daniel Cormier has the strap after his own incredible effort, and he is indeed the division’s “legit” champion as the challenger said, afterwards. | [

10,001,895 | Another week has slipped by and I can’t say that we have continued with our lessons. Josh and Jess, who are independent students, have been diligent with their studies but the week has suddenly disappeared and we haven’t completed a phonics lesson, a maths lesson or a typing practice with Nomi and Daniel!! But… learning has happened!
And I am sure the list could go on. There has been plenty of activity, plenty of books and plenty of discussion on various issues, so learning has happened for sure.
Live life with your kids - that is what it is all about!
What venture do you face this coming week? Are you prepared?
It doesn’t matter what it is – be it completing lessons, or cleaning the house, or planning a party, or a holiday away – our family ventures are much more successful if we put a little time and effort into the planning.
Know the “Why”, why are we doing this?
In much the same way as I look at my children’s hearts to plan the moral instruction I need to be aware of (Refer to Newsletter #37 Be Ready for Battle), I also look where my children are with life skills and their academic lessons and make priority choices on how we fill our day and on what lessons I plan.
My first priority is for those lessons that touch the heart. This is my main concern regardless of what else happens in the week. Am I prepared for Bible Study, Character Studies, and Moral Instruction? Why do I focus so much on these areas? Because it is through these times that we build relationships with our children; we show them our heart and we grow closer together. It is also at these times that we give them a glimpse of God’s heart, giving them an opportunity to draw closer to Him as well. Relationships first is a mantra that guides our planning.
soul and mind, and with all your strength.
This is a relationship first verse!
The second area that affects my choices is the priority need in my family. I am sure if I asked you, mother to mother, what your number one concern for each of your children were, you would have an answer. This has nothing to do with educational scope and sequences – this is because you know your child.
I spend time preparing lessons for those areas of concern. Should one child have a strong need I actually prioritise my children. | [

10,001,896 | To be honest I can’t always be intensely onto it with each of my children but I can do justice to one priority need. So when one child has a priority need, the others tend to work independently on the things that they can. The time will come when the other needs can be met.
For example, though I can list a priority for each of my children, Daniel’s needs are the strongest at this time. Most of my planning focus and daily attention goes towards meeting his needs. Over the years we have had focus priority time for each of our children but for now it is on Daniel. This doesn’t mean the others don’t get any attention, that they don’t get help when they need it but it does mean that the few hours I have for planning lessons, they go towards the priority focus.
Asking the “Why” question is a very helpful decision making tool.
Why are we planning to teach this subject?
Why are we planning to be involved in this activity?
Why are we planning to pick up that project?
If you don’t have an acceptable answer, you need to consider the path you have started down. It is never too late to change. One of the lessons I have had to learn is that it is okay to change. It is okay to change curriculum, it is okay to change my routine, it is okay to change a method of teaching. It is okay to change! It is much more important to stay true to the things that are on your heart and if you have wavered, you need to get back to what is important.

10,001,897 | Arkansas is one of those places that you never forget once you have been there. Its southern charm, scenic coves, and tucked- away villages may give visitors the impression that they are in a sleepy hamlet in Europe, and its vibrant cities and towns may give the impression of being in larger metropolitan areas. Unlike more cosmopolitan areas, the people are some of the friendliest you will ever meet. The state has many different places and personalities in which to endear a visitor. Its cities and towns are as different as day and night, but they are alike in their openness and hospitality.
Little Rock is the state’s capital and its largest city. Located on the Arkansas River, it is home to the Clinton Presidential Library, where visitors will see replication of the Oval Office and many articles from the president’s time in office.
After visitors have been wowed by the impressive Clinton Library, they can explore the downtown area with its many unique neighborhoods. The tree-lined streets and re-purposed historic buildings are among the factors that draw visitors and locals alike. This mixed-use area is home to trendy restaurants, business sectors, modern living, and numerous entertainment settings. Guests to the area can enjoy a beer garden and a neighborhood -style backyard barbecue. Its family-friendly museums and historic homes are worth a trip to this exciting city.
Unique shopping opportunities abound in the indoor bazaar of the River Market District. Dine at a variety of restaurants or visit one of the many museums. Another must see in the downtown area is the Quapaw Quarter, which cover nine square miles and has some of the most beautiful antebellum architecture found anywhere. This 19th century residential and business neighborhood features properties that have been historically restored to represent a glimpse of a bygone era.
Different festivals, such as the International Greek Food Festival, the Literary Festival, and the Jewish Food and Cultural Festival, all demonstrate the ethnic and cultural diversity of the state. Other events, like the various marathons, with over 10,000 participants, offer sightseers the opportunity to participate if they wish. These marathons boast the world’s largest medal for those who finish the race. That is quite a trophy to take home and share with friends and family. The St. Patrick’s Day parade speaks to the Irish culture and heritage of Arkansans. IndiaFest is another cultural event that unites cultures for a chance to experience the | [

Different festivals and parades also provide people with experiences that will not disappoint. Visitors can find something of interest anytime of the year. Cycling tours that range from 10 miles to 100 miles run through Central Arkansas and across the 4000-foot bridge known as the Big Dam Bridge. Both bicycle and pedestrian traffic are allowed on the overpass. The state fair draws 400,000 visitors every year. It features a rodeo, livestock, music, and a carnival, making it appealing to the whole family.
Delight in the charmingly lit paths of Wildwood gardens for magical evenings that will carry you away to a time when all things seemed possible. This takes place during the enchantment of the lunar New Year’s first full moon. Lively entertainment is featured throughout the Arboretum for all to enjoy.
Even more delightful are the outdoor activities that are found throughout the state. Cyclists and hikers must try the Arkansas River Trail, which traverses five different pedestrian bridges. From them, the visitor can enjoy the sights and sounds of nature, as well as views of the river as they picnic or fish along the trail. Foot bridges also lead to downtown Riverfront Park, where quaint shops await spectators along with wonderful walkways and beautiful views. Different parks can be accessed along the trail fully engulfing people with the sights and sounds of the city. Biking trails, community gardens, walking trails, and areas to view wildlife proliferate.
Camping is a favorite activity for many who travel to and through the state. Travelers are likely to find accommodations from primitive to high end, suitable to fit anyone’s taste. The more rugged adventurer will appreciate the hike-in tent sites when they really want to get back to nature. Those with a more refined idea of camping will find resort-style spaces that will give them all of the luxury they desire.
Surroundings cities include Conway with a population of 64,000, Bryant – population 19,500, and Maumelle with a population of 17,000. Comparatively speaking, these are all quite sizeable. Cable is present even in these smaller cities. Dish Network, especially, gives affordable options to its customers. The TV and high-speed internet bundles make it an expedient choice because customers only have to be concerned with one convenient payment.
Fort Smith is also on the Arkansas River. Interestingly, it was a military post when settlers first began coming into | [

The many different attractions include landmarks, such as the Belle Grove Historic District, which has restored 25 homes to their original splendor. The city is host to a 140,000 square foot convention center, where conventions, trade shows, and other occasions are held. It also houses the performing arts theater for the Fort Smith symphony. The weather is generally hot, humid summers and fairly mild winters, making it perfect for outdoor activities.
Not that this is anything about which to boast, but a former brothel is now Miss Laura’s Social Club, which houses the Convention and Visitors Bureau. It is a fixture on the National Register of Historic Places. A less racy occurrence is a taste of the Wild West with 10 days of the annual Old Fort Days Rodeo. One of the popular festivals in southern states is Juneteenth, which commemorates the end of slavery in this country.
The Trolley Museum, the Clayton House, and the National Historical Museum are some of the city’s locations where visitors and locals can learn information about the past. For kids and adults alike, Parrot Island Waterpark is a great place to chill out on those warm summer afternoons. Floating down a lazy river is an all-time favorite for the adults while the kids enjoy the water slides and floating animals in the pool.
The Fort Smith National Historic Site contains the remnants of two forts as well as the Trail of Tears National Historic Trail. When the government forced the American Indians to leave their homes and relocate to sites they had chosen, the Indians passed through Fort Smith on their way to Oklahoma.
To remember those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our country, visitors can stop at the Fort Smith National Cemetery. Many Civil War and Unknown soldiers are buried there as well as the “hanging Judge,” Isaac C. Parker. The Laying of the Wreaths is a very inspirational ceremony as wreaths are laid on the graves of soldiers that date back to the Mexican American War, World War II, Korean, and Vietnam.
Quite out of the ordinary is the St. Scholastica Monastery, which is still active with an order of Franciscan nuns. The chapel and the peaceful grounds are open for viewing. Visitors can observe a pond, different statues, a stony grotto, a small | [
