Sapporo Holdings expects its ordinary income and net income to be more than 30% higher than previous guidance for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, issued on November 30, 2010. The company has accordingly revised its consolidated earnings forecast as detailed below.
Sapporo Holdings expects ordinary income of 14.3 billion yen, exceeding previous guidance of 11.0 billion yen by 3.3 billion yen, and net income of 10.7 billion yen, exceeding previous guidance of 7.0 billion yen by 3.7 billion yen.
The company expects operating income to exceed its previous forecast by 1.9 billion yen, mainly due to concentration of resources on core brands in its Japanese Alcoholic Beverages Business as well as production cost reductions. Also buoyed by a positive contribution from equity in income of affiliates and a reduction in net financial loss, Sapporo Holdings consequently expects ordinary income and net income to exceed their previous forecasts. | 2019-04-25T06:36:41 | https://journal.beer/2011/02/03/sapporo-holdings-revises-consolidated-full-year-earnings-forecast/ |
(from irpedia.com) – Somewhere not far from the border between Iran and Turkmenistan there is a huge and unbelievably beautiful valley called Shamkhal. The name comes from a village near that. It is located in west northern of Quchan. It is about 18 km long; going through many springs and falls within rocky walls which in some parts are 200 meters high. | 2019-04-18T11:12:32 | https://photosiran.wordpress.com/2014/10/30/razavi-khorasan-province-shamkhal-valley/ |

TR6's are one of the most sought after British sport cars on the market today. They are still affordable today and the TR6 series is a great investment. With a steady climbing value, the right time has come to make one your own before they get too expensive. The one that we have for sale in our South Florida showroom is the... one you want. This Triumph is in great condition, beautiful inside and out. The car was recently repainted and looks fantastic in it's orange color. It isn't a secret that classic cars like to rust. There is no reason to be worried with this one. The body is in fantastic condition. We checked the whole sheet metal and there are no signs that this TR6 was ever involved in any collision. Our magnet sticks everywhere like glue and the body lines up like in 75. Let's continue and jump in the driver's seat. You will be amazed how clean the inside is.

It is just fun to drive this TR6. Just one peak in the clean engine compartment will tell the story of this car. This roadster has always been in good hands and well taken care of. There is only one problem with this car, it needs a new owner that will continue to take good care of her. She is ready to go and it is a must see. [ omitted ]. [ omitted ].

Young people in Ghana who grow up in poverty and to families with little or no education endure limited early learning opportunities, underfunded educational systems, and more health and mental health problems compared to their peers from more privileged backgrounds. A significant body of literature addressing the relationship among risk, protection, resilience and academic achievement is based on youth populations in North America and Western Europe. Relatively little is known about the applicability of ecological and risk and resilience frameworks in non-Western countries. Consequently, educational outcomes of young people in Ghana are often characterized by similarities in low achievement, lack of teachers, school supplies, and dilapidated school buildings. Such characterizations mask internal and social resources of individuals in Ghana. In an attempt to understand the processes of students' academic achievement in Ghana, this study examined the relationship among risk, protection, and academic achievement of 276 first-year college students in Ghana. Using a mixed methods design, the study applied ecological theory and the risk and resilience framework to measure personal, family, and environmental conditions that enhanced or inhibited achievement. Bivariate analyses revealed gender and regional differences in measures of protection and risk relative to school achievement. These included parental and individual drug abuse, neighborhood safety, school mentor, neighborhood cohesion, collective efficacy, and parental educational values. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses revealed significant relationships between students' grades and sense of optimism, region of residence, presence of a school mentor, parental social support, and neighborhood safety. Results suggest that there are important gender and regional differences in Ghanaian youths' access and exposure to systems of support and risks. Implications of these findings, limitations of the study design, and directions for future research are discussed.

When your senior loved one has dementia, you have big decisions to make regarding how you plan his or care. While you have options available such as assisted living, many older adults prefer to continue living in their own homes. Aging in place has several benefits for your loved one as well as the rest of your family that are too important to overlook.
Assisted living residences and other types of dementia care programs try to keep their staff the same. However, they frequently have high turnover rates, which means the clients may have a constantly rotating set of caregivers. A high turnover rate poses a problem for continuity in care, and your loved one may also have difficulty communicating with new people as his or her symptoms progress. With in-home care, you get to keep the same caregivers for longer so your family can get to know them.
Older adults sometimes equate going to an assisted living facility with giving up their independence. Staying at home makes it feel less like things have changed. Your loved one may also have more room to move around and feel more comfortable doing tasks such as cooking. While your loved one may need a caregiver to keep him or her safe, he or she can remain independent for longer.
The cognitive challenges that accompany dementia often leave aging adults unable to manage everyday tasks, which puts their safety and health at risk. If your senior loved one has been diagnosed with a serious condition and needs help with tasks like meal prep, transportation, bathing, and grooming, reach out to Home Care Assistance, a leading provider of home care Denver, CO, families can trust. We also offer comprehensive care for seniors with dementia, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s.
Families often find the visiting hours at assisted living facilities hinder their ability to see their loved ones anytime they want, which is especially true if they work odd hours or only have the late evenings available to visit. Providing care for your loved one at home means no one can dictate when you see him or her. You’ll be able to visit any time you want, even if it’s overnight or on the weekends.
Dementia care facilities require seniors to live with others who have the same condition, and this often causes issues in a public setting. Having another resident accuse your loved one of theft or get inexplicably angry could cause your loved one to become hurt or confused. At home, you have more control over who spends time with your loved one each day.
Dementia can be challenging for seniors to manage, but they can maintain a higher quality of life with the help of professional dementia care. Denver seniors can benefit greatly from the Cognitive Therapeutics Method (CTM), an activities-based program designed to promote cognitive health and delay the onset of dementia. CTM is included at no additional charge with any of the in-home care plans provided by Home Care Assistance.
If you’ve spoken with your loved one in the past about aging in place, you may have been told he or she prefers to stay at home. Your loved one may also be able to share personal preferences if he or she is in the earlier stages of the disease and understands what’s happening. Knowing you’ve respected your loved one’s wishes may give you peace of mind as he or she progresses through the later stages of the disease.
Keeping your loved one at home also means you’re able to stay informed about what happens. Seniors who live away from home spend many hours without family members being able to check on their wellbeing. When you can pop in whenever you like and talk to your loved one’s caregivers, you’ll feel more secure about the quality of care he or she is receiving.
Caring for a loved one with dementia is a challenging task for anyone. The responsibilities can sometimes feel overwhelming, but help is available. Seniors can face a variety of age-related challenges. Though some families choose to take on the caregiving duties, there may come a time when they need a trusted Denver home care service provider. Families sometimes need respite from their duties so they can focus on their other responsibilities, and some seniors need around-the-clock assistance that their families are not able to provide. Rely on the professionals at Home Care Assistance to provide high-quality compassionate care for your loved one. Give us a call today at (720) 443-3371 to learn about our flexible in-home care plans. | 2019-04-19T00:20:49 | https://www.homecareassistancedenver.com/caring-for-elderly-with-dementia-at-home/ |
Tecumseh was born in the Shawnee village of Piqua, Ohio on March 9, 1768. That very night, a great meteor lit up the night sky and burned its way across the heavens. Therefore Tecumseh, meaning the Shooting Star or Celestial Panther Lying in Wait was named for this phenomenon. Early in his childhood and into manhood, Tecumseh completely engrossed himself in the Shawnee hunting culture. He became one of the most famous Native Americans as a warrior, and a vibrant orator because he could motivate and inspire his audiences. He understood early that the white man would not rest until all Native Americans were driven out into exile or eliminated completely.
Tecumseh’s plan was to counter this threat by assembling an alliance of all remaining Indian people. This alliance would join together nations from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, and from the Midwest to Florida. All Indian people would set aside their ancestral oppositions and unite into a single movement to defend their culture, their homelands, and their lives as necessary.
During the war of 1812, Tecumseh saw the opportunity he had been waiting for to unite his people and stave off the advances of General William Henry Harrison. The British made an accord with Tecumseh that if they are to ally and defeat the United States, the Native Americans would retain the land within the Old Northwest. The allies enjoyed some successes such as at Fort Detroit and Fort Dearborn. However it was not to be, and at the Battle of the Thames River, the weak and disconcerted British and Indian warriors would find themselves overwhelmed in rank and might by the United States. It is here where Tecumseh would spend his final moments as seen previously in a vision. Within 35 years of his death, all Native Americans were driven off of their land and either killed or placed on reservations. | 2019-04-20T14:27:23 | http://www.native-net.org/indians/tecumseh.html |
Virginia elections officials say they have already purged nearly 40,000 names from the voter rolls that are the subject of a lawsuit filed by Democrats seeking to keep those voters registered.
The Democratic Party of Virginia filed suit in federal court earlier this month over plans to purge as many 57,000 names ahead of November's gubernatorial election based on evidence the voters had registered in other states. Democrats say the list is riddled with errors.
In a court filing late Tuesday, the State Board of Elections said it has already purged 38,870 names, while keeping more than 11,000 on the rolls after county registrars conducted their own reviews.
Lawyers for the elections board say the fact that 11,000 were kept on the rolls shows that the reviews were conducted carefully. | 2019-04-23T03:08:24 | https://www.nbcwashington.com/blogs/first-read-dmv/Va-Kicks-40K-Off-Voter-Rolls-Over-Dems-Objection-228038771.html |
In this lecture-performance Ateliersi exposes materials that tell the stories related to the wall writings. Little secrets, micro stories, anecdotes about the authors and about the act of writing/contamination are revealed. Books, photographs, audio and video documents are used. The spectator may use these informations as a deepening, prologue or epilogue to the show Se la mia pelle vuoi.
Freedom has many forms is a part of URBAN SPRAY LEXICON PROJECT, a dramaturgical and performative research of the writings that appear and disappear from the city walls. It consists of Executioner-A brief concert for graffiti, voice and synthesisers (2011-2012), If you want my skin (2013) and the lesson-performance Freedom has many forms. Notes and news from graffiti writings (2013).
With URBAN SPRAY LEXICON PROJECT Ateliersi collects the writings from today annotating and photographing them, and rescues those from the past digging them up in books, reviews and private collections. From the collected material Ateliersi composes a new dramaturgy, storing them in the poems becomes a way of preserving the ephemeral. To these small units of text, on the scene are given cries and whispers: visual signs are transformed into performative gestures. It is an artistic operation where theatrical language operates in straight contact with visual arts and sound design, where the dynamics of an urban landscape become a scenic material. Ateliersi is interested in the street, inhabited by anonymous individuals, where the limit between public and private is mobile and undefined. | 2019-04-24T20:30:11 | http://ateliersi.it/ateliersi/en/portfolio_page/freedom-has-many-forms-2/ |
Vice Mayor Marcussen is responsible for urban development. She is responsible for city planning, building regulations and development projects, including architectural and historical heritage, urban regeneration, the City’s real estate holdings (excluding municipal buildings).
Hanna Elise Marcussen represents the Norwegian Green Party, where she was the national spokeswoman for the party from 2008 to 2014, and the party’s first candidate for Oslo during the national parliamentary elections in 2009. From 2014 to 2015, she was the manager of Bergfald Environmental Advisors. Marcussen is a qualified archeologist from the University of Oslo.
Oslo is experiencing record growth in population and jobs. At the same time, policy goals for reduced climate gas emissions and more social inclusion are ambitious. Urban development in Oslo is concentrated within the existing built environment, which requires densification and transformation in prioritized areas. Road transport is the biggest greenhouse gas source in Oslo. Therefore, car-transport should be reduced, through a compact development around public transport nodes, increased cycle-lanes and a car-free city centre. Key programs and strategies include regional planning collaboration and climate-friendly building. This includes low-energy housing, climate neutral municipal buildings and transformation areas, as well as innovative pilot projects (FutureBuilt).
The rate of house building must be increased to meet the growing population and housing demand. Major housing projects will be located in transformation areas close to public transport nodes and near the inner city. House building should seek to improve the quality of urban living while at the same time as reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Urban development through densification and transformation within the existing building zone will only succeed if a high quality is ensured for urban and residential areas. Attractive public spaces and green amenities within all parts of the city will be encouraged, including innovative approaches to the built form, sustainability, building traditions and materials. A new City policy for architectural standards for buildings and public space will be introduced and implemented. At the same time priority is given to conserve and find innovative ways to use historical buildings and environments. A core strategy for improving the urban quality in Oslo is organised through area-based regeneration, especially in the Grorud Valley development which is continuing for the second 10-year programmes. | 2019-04-19T09:08:27 | https://www.oslo.kommune.no/english/politics-and-administration/politics/city-government/the-vice-mayor-for-urban-development/ |

Turns are taken simultaneously, which makes the game go quick and makes it difficult to keep an eye on what everybody else is doing while you are playing.
All players start with one Order card. The Order card tells the players to pick up an object from a particular location and deliver it to one of the three guests. Each of the locations is a small deck of cards, and players can choose freely from all of the items at any location. They then must drop off the item at the requisite guest's space. Additionally, the Traitor has a second objective - the picking up and delivering of poison to the assembled guests. To accomplish this, a player gets three actions in a given turn. Actions include moving one space, picking up a card from a deck, dropping a card off or getting a new order from the head butler.
As the game goes on, time tokens are removed from play and players may play rumor tokens to the rumor mill. The round ends when a prescribed number of tokens are in the rumor mill or all of the time tokens have been removed from play. If the time runs out, the killer gets away scot free and nobody can make an accusation. If the round ends due to rumor tokens, however, the players get an opportunity to accuse someone of being the traitor, which is done in secret.
Points are awarded to the players based upon the orders that they have completed, combined with the results of their accusation. Players score 20 points per token per correct accusation, and lose 10 per token per incorrect accusation. Likewise, the traitor earns points for his completed orders, points based upon the number of guests that he poisoned, and loses points for every correct accusation.
A full game is comprised of three rounds, with scores being added across all three games. Whoever has the high score at the end wins the game. | 2019-04-20T05:13:00 | https://breakinggames.com/collections/single-games/products/amberden-affair |

Merchant bankers, overseas companies and property developers will be lining up to buy 364 state houses in Horowhenua during two days of “market sounding” meetings starting tomorrow, Leader of the Opposition Andrew Little says.
“Despite a housing crisis and families being forced to live in cars and garages, National is forging ahead with its ideologically-driven plan to hock off thousands of state houses throughout the country.
“The Government plans to sell off 249 state houses in Horowhenua; 151 in Levin, 21 in Foxton, 70 in Otaki and seven in Shannon. Market sounding meetings are being held in Levin tomorrow and Wellington on Friday.
“At the last round of these meetings for National’s first tranche of state house sell-offs in Invercargill and Tauranga, 40 per cent of those expressing interest were banks, consultants, law firms, companies and lobbyists. Just 20 per cent were registered community housing providers.
“National claims they are selling these properties to ‘social housing providers’ but anyone can register as one. This blows holes in the Government’s argument they are selling-off these properties because social housing providers will take better care of tenants.
“The earlier meetings were almost a year ago and as yet no state houses have been sold. Invercargill was a spectacular flop – the Government’s only bidder pulled out – and three bidders have been locked in negotiations over the Tauranga houses for many months. Two of are consortia dominated by merchant bankers, overseas companies and property developers.
“Instead of flogging off state houses during a housing crisis, Labour will stop the sell-off and build more – increasing the number of state houses by at least 1000 every year until demand is met. Instead of running Housing NZ as a cash cow, we will turn it into a public service which focuses on people, not profits,” Andrew Little says. | 2019-04-21T21:02:42 | https://www.labour.org.nz/national_pushes_on_with_failed_state_house_sell_off |

On August 11, 2014, Peter was stopped at a red light waiting to turn left. While he and the car behind him were stopped at the red light, a third car behind Peter did not slow down and stop. The third vehicle collided into the car that was behind Peter, which pushed that car to collide into the rear of Peter’s vehicle. Later that day, Peter went to the emergency room of a hospital in Brooklyn for complaints of neck and back pain. He was evaluated and later released.
As a result of the accident, Peter injured his back, neck, and shoulders. He also suffered with paresthesias (“pins and needles” sensation) in his upper right extremity on the ulnar aspect (opposite side of his right forearm). Peter received physical therapy for approximately 2 years and underwent several cervical and lumbar pain management injections. At the time of the accident, Peter was working as a truck driver and was unable to work for 3 weeks after the car collision.
Peter heard Adam’s radio show and contacted The Case Handler team for legal representation! Since Peter’s accident occurred on the job, his medical bills should have been covered by his employer’s workers’ compensation insurance, BUT there wasn’t any…so The Case Handler team was successful in getting Peter’s medical bills paid by the other driver’s insurance company and in recovering $82,240.49 for Peter! | 2019-04-20T16:18:19 | https://www.thecasehandler.com/case-results/multiple-car-accident-lawyer-review-peter/ |

Fill your truck with everything you need, but don’t take what you don’t need right out of the Fishing Boat. Equipment such as Backup power and lures, keep this in the truck until it's needed. You need to get everything out of the boat. This will not only make it easy for you keep track, but it will also take the load off your boat.
Whatever the occasion is, you need to take safety measures to make sure your equipment is safe. Whether you are visiting a local lake or spawning near a reservoir, you need to protect your things. Use a sealable plastic bag and put every important thing in it, including your keys, charger, and even cell phone. This will keep your things safe from the water.
Even if you know all about the local big water, you need to keep your distance from it. Besides, you can never know when it will get rough, and dangerous. Even a Couple of Waves from the front of the boat is enough to put the boat driver in a world of troubles. To keep yourself safe, you need a portable bilge pump in the bottom of the boat and plug it into a cigarette lighter.
While preparing your Fishing Boat, make sure you take an extra cooler with you, besides the one that comes with your boat. For a someone who fish in all weather, it's good to have extra room for your drinks and ice.
One of the ingenious contractions in your Fishing Boat is an accessory tray. Lock It on the front deck. Make sure you rig it in the boat so you can lock it. Make sure it's easy to remove and lock it in a storage container. It's easy to unclip as it goes in and out of the storage you can try and throw off the weights, hooks, clipper, scents and even pliers to do the trick.
This will save your time. For every time you cast a premium, make sure you got some baits. This will be convenient when you use fishing tactics as drop shotting and Carolina rigging. Try to use a leader so you will only need three knots. Pre-rig so you will only need to tie one knot.
When you are setting up your Fishing Boat, make sure your boat won't turn a storage are on its own. During fishing, you need to find everything as soon as possible. The organization of main storage bin is important as it holds every important equipment. To do this, you can divide the soft plastic bag by its type and use bags to divide the weight and hook; this will also make sure your equipment remains dry.
When it's about smallmouth fishing, you need cramming rods with rod locker. As you need just one in each tube, therefore, don’t carry a whole bunch of them. For largemouth fishing, you need more than one rod for this job. If organize your Fishing Boat properly, you can control the number of broken rods.
The last thing you want to do when fishing is changing the trolling motor on water. For better, you need to make sure its strapped perfectly. For peace of mind, double strap it. This way, it won't move back and forth because this is how it's damaged.
These are common on Bass Fishing Boat. You can keep them safe if you put a cover on them. Yes, you need to ensure their safety if they are going to stay up all the day, even when you don’t need them.
Take a system with you that will keep your fish alive. No Fisher wants to face a dead fish penalty. Therefore, take great care to make sure they will survive. Start with a weigh-in bag, fill it with water and drain live well. Now dump the water on it. To keep your fish alive, make sure your live wells are not on auto. Never bring the water from the top of the lake in here.
You need to use a weight in the bag and mix some U2 Pro Formula. This is made for oxygenator. It helps for creating a nice bath of ice for you to dump.
While in your Fishing Boat, you need to keep three bright orange marker buoys always with you. When Offshore fishing, you need GPS to pinpoint the exact spot and see when to cast and dial in. Use the GPS because when you get out of there, you will have a clear visual.
Keep a backup prop in your Fishing Boat every time. Anglers change their props in water. Try to make it a three blade because it can survive any situation. They give cutting edge performance and never blows out even during big waves.
While organizing your Fishing Boat, don’t forget the PFD. It’s sure an antique piece of equipment which makes you wear a foam vest instead of an inflatable one. But its extra cushion for running and moving the side helps you to navigate through water without depending on anything mechanical.
These tips will make sure you have a pleasant fishing experience. These organizing tips will help you prepare your boat for a great experience and ensure you will catch as many fishes as possible. But if you think we missed something, and you would like us to add It up, please drop in the comments.

I’ve lived more of my life away from Ireland than in it, but of course I always think of it as home and part of my children’s identity too. Language is key to that. At school I learned Irish for many year starting at the age of 4, and it’s not an easy language to learn. But I really believe that early start got me to where I am today.
I was lucky to go to a primary school that had a positive attitude to the language, and in later years I was one of those kids who didn’t really mind wading through the 18th century epic poems, mad grammar and spelling, and the much-maligned kitchen sink drama of Dingle housewife Peig (a book known to be ritually destroyed after completing the exam). What made it tough for people was that it was mandatory: you had to pass it to enter university and get a civil service job. But it’s a wonderful language to hear and speak and has a deep, rich heritage, very close to the traditional music that I play and love.
My parents weren’t able to help much with my Irish homework – it was not taught well in the 1940s. But my siblings and I benefitted from the first great strides made during the 1970s to standardise the teaching of the language. An early advantage I discovered when moving away from home was how useful a secret language it could be — though you might get in trouble commenting about others on the London tube.
Irish – also called Gaelic, but that’s more for foreigners – is actually the official language so the country is technically bilingual. This means that street signs and paperwork are in two languages and as an EU minority language, taxpayers’ money pays for interpreters sitting in the European Parliament. Many people still think of it as a dying language, that too much is invested in it. A begrudger might indeed think I’ve lived away for too long and am too romantic about it. In reality only about 80,000 people speak Irish on a daily basis although this number has been growing and the many second-generation Polish and Nigerian children often famously learn it better than their peers.
Moving away from Dublin in 1995 I could not have imagined the blossoming of the language seen in the last 10 years, becoming cool enough that you’ll hear teenagers speaking it on the bus in Dublin (well, certain parts of the city). The Irish language TV station TG4 is an innovative broadcaster, full of lovely young faces, and if we were living in Ireland we might well have our children at the local gaelscoil (Irish school) to ensure they’re learning better than I ever did. You can actually study the language in most countries in the world.
I’m a strong believer that the learning of Irish from an early age – a language so structurally different to English – leads to a population naturally able to take on more languages (and indeed carry a tune). Many a smart politician during the Celtic Tiger was delighted to welcome the Dells, Googles and Facebooks who wanted to build their European headquarters in Ireland, encouraging them to take advantage of one of Europe’s most multi-lingual (and youngest) countries. And they’re still there, though the graduates have been leaving in droves since the recession – a story for another day.
After learning Irish from the age of 4, I started on school French at 10, then German for a few years and by the time I got to university (having survived all those exams about the modh coinniollach) I was all set to take on Italian or Russian. Italian won out and here I am, many years later, working on i pronomi possessivi with my 6 year old who can roll her Rs much better than I ever will.
When my daughters were small, I would use some Irish phrases in everyday chat – Tabhair dom do lámh (give me your hand), Oíche mhaith (good night) or Tóg go bog é (calm down). I would have used more except we were living in Norway and needed to focus on getting used to Norwegian or just practising English. So for 7 years we mixed it up a bit.
Now, in Italy, we’re living through a third language and I’m figuring out how to do the trilingual thing with them – learning Italian, speaking English everyday but also remembering their Norwegian. (We only speak English at home).

As Import Manager at Ceará Importers,* a successful and expanding young medium-sized company in Fortaleza, I thought that I had finally made it in Brazil. Gone were my days of struggle to raise the rent and my sons’ high school fees. We dressed better, frequented the cinema, and enjoyed holiday week-end outings. I also began looking for an apartment closer to my workplace and my sons’ school.
After relocating to his farm 52 miles away from the capital, a good friend offered to rent me his apartment in Bairro Varjota, an upscale neighborhood in Fortaleza. An evening after work, my sixteen-year-old son and I visited the apartment. Located on the eighth floor of a ten-story apartment building, it had a master bedroom with bathroom, two other bedrooms sharing another bathroom and self-contained quarters for a live-in maid. The view from the living room balcony took my breath away.
My son looked at me wide-eyed. “Mom, you’re dreaming. We can’t afford a place like this,” he told me.
“We can make it happen,” I said.
By cutting non-essential expenses, we were able to cover the doubly higher rent and condo fees. Change demanded individual sacrifices.
Four months and thirteen days after moving into our new apartment, the Brazil Central Bank announced a change in foreign exchange rates. The Brazil real, pegged one-to-one with the American dollar (R$1.00 = US$1.00) during the previous five years under the economic Plano Real (Real Plan), would undergo fluctuations. The measure aimed to defend Brazil’s foreign reserves that had suffered losses totaling over US$44 billion during the financial crises in Asia (1997) and Russia (1998).
The announcement that Wednesday in January 1999 caused havoc at Ceará Importers. The cost of our imports had increased overnight. Our products were no longer competitive with similar nationally produced goods. Sales plummeted with increased prices. The company began closing its retail stores, laying-off the employees. Tensions rose at the head office-warehouse-showroom complex where I worked.
I floundered as the company lost its ground and battled to find a new direction for survival. I crumbled as colleagues I had come to know and love said their goodbyes.
By mid-year, I worked only half-days. Paying my rent became a challenge. Sleepless nights assailed me. My hunt for a job opening began anew.
As shipments came to a halt, I became irrelevant. My final days came in February 2000. Despite a number of job interviews, I hadn’t yet secured a new job.
When we are on top, we think that it will last forever. I learned that in a globalized economy, there is no job security. We never know when destructive winds will blow our way and sweep our success from under our feet.
Thanks for a really insightful story of life in this insecure age of “Globalization”. We look forward to your next chapter. Thanks!!
Thanks for reading and sharing my post, Cyril. The next Brazilian chapter will be filled with heroism during a time of crisis.
Back In 1999, we knew not that we would face a global financial collapse.
History is often written by the “victors” not the victims or vanquished.

Kamptan (Lakota?), thanks for reading and sharing your own concerns.
We are all “victims” in the transformation of our world into the global marketplace for transnational corporations.
Rosaliene – the effects of Globalization and all that goes with it, is still yet unclear. Whether this will become, if not yet, a dog eat dog world is still to be seen. I believe that countries , especially small ones need to look at self-sustaining as not just a word but a way of life. It is only time when it will be difficult for many countries to enjoy all of the goods and services that some in the developed world enjoy, with many thanks to less developed ones who make or buy their products, with limited salaries or finances. It may be the old “Victory garden” times again, but not due to war shortages but resources scarcities. The old Guyanese “make do” philosophy, may become popular again.. Just a thought on the future outlook on haves and have nots.
Augustus, thanks for reading and for sharing your thoughts.
Sadly, millions of unemployed people are learning to “make do” in order to survive. I’ve also learned from short documentary films available on YouTube that those left behind are making a living on the waste of the wealthy and more fortunate of urban communities.
Agustus thinking is correct in a way.
My thinking goes very deeply on the subject….
Third world becomes first world and visa versa.
An ecological and sociological dream come true.
Bob Marley may be turning in his grave!
An educated world is one world.
we will have to live with…for the benefit of mankind as a whole.
Lots of food for thought there, Kamptan.
My twisted sense of humour…in Guyanese …don’t mess me up woman!..
nah vamit pan me !
Hey have a happy day ..keep smiling !
The example about which you’ve written is a frightening example of how life can turn in an instant. I suspect that most people who have been born in the right place at the right time share the illusion that their relative prosperity and safety are a permanent condition. The unsettling impact of currency changes in Germany and Austria during their post-WWI hyper-inflation, as we know from the history books, found them spending their pay in the morning because by the end of the workday it would be worth less. The transitory nature of things applies to success and much more.
Thanks for sharing your insights, Dr. Stein.

A number of photos have caught my eye recently, and not for the right reasons. When I made a generic comment about it on Facebook, it was interesting to see how many people missed my point. So I thought it would be useful to explain it further here.
Last year, I was privileged to meet some of the women behind the Women's Sports Trust at their Be A Game Changer awards. Their aim is to use the power of sport to accelerate gender equality. For anyone who has ever met me, you will know how much that resonates with what we're trying to achieve through the Racing Chance Foundation.
Any woman who is involved in sport is in a privileged position: by definition, you get to keep fit and healthy doing something you enjoy. But the benefits are more far-reaching than that. Playing sport builds confidence, resilience, determination and grit - all attributes that will serve you well when/if you decide to focus on a career. It's no coincidence that some of the most powerful women across the globe have participated in sport at a high level - you need the attributes I mention above to succeed in life.
But the other role of sport is to provide positive role models for people. Women's sport is especially important because there are unrealistic expectations of what women should look like, whether that be Size Zero models, or popstars or actresses. Let's face it, millions of magazines are sold each year which are full of these images, with just as many showing how awful a woman looks because she has put a bit of weight on, or she's not in her make up or she's done her hair in a rush. Neither of those options are a healthy place to be.
However, in order to change the status quo, we all have a role to play. Imagery is a massive tool in changing stereotypes. We're (thankfully) moving away from images of women in half-zipped tops that lend themselves more to a "Carry On" film but we're still miles away from being at a point where men take women seriously (just look at how many choices there are that aren't "female specific colours" when you want to buy your next cycling top). And don't get me started on the shop which had footage of a video shoot for women's cycling kit where all the models' hair and makeup was being touched up. We're cyclists. We get muddy faces when we're out riding!
With women's sports, we have the opportunity to show the world that we don't need a full face of perfect makeup, or blown dry hair, not an inch out of place. At Racing Chance HQ, we use the phrase "muddy faces win races" to promote this as an idea (we use the hashtag #muddyfaceswinraces).
I'm not saying that there isn't a place for makeup and poses, but it shouldn't be on the bike. | 2019-04-24T18:33:46 | http://racingchancefoundation.com/muddy-faces-win-bike-races/ |

It's really unfortunate that the vast majority of the population turns to stimulants instead of looking to whole foods for a boost of invigorating energy. I guess part of the problem is that humans are generally lazy and would rather take the "magic pill" to fix all their problems.
But when it comes to having more energy the irony is that the stimulating foods such coffee, sugar, and energy drinks actually fatigue your body in the long run. Sure they give you a quick jolt of energy but then their real effects are felt as they wear down your adrenal glands, disrupt your blood sugar, and create a huge crash after the initial high. Essentially they are drugs. They are not foods that give us energy.
- wheat grass - if you haven't tried wheat grass then you're missing out on some big time energy and nutrition. Growing it and juicing yourself can be a bit of a pain but you can easily get a "shot" at most health food stores or juice bars. 1 oz of wheat grass juice packs more nutrition than 2.5 lbs of green leafy veggies!
- raw cacao (nibs or powder) - incredible source of magnesium, antioxidants, and life force. These give me a natural high that can last for hours without the subsequent like you would get from coffee and caffeinated beverages.
- goji berries - another incredible source of antioxidants and polysaccharides that improve cell-to-cell communication. I actually combine these with my raw cacao nibs and complementary tastes work really well together. | 2019-04-26T07:44:18 | https://www.actonprincipals.com/2017/04/mp3trainer1.html |
Your son or daughter will be starting Key Stage 4 of National Curriculum English; this is an integrated course of reading, writing, speaking and listening and is assessed by GCSE. The GCSE is based on the National Curriculum orders for English.
Section A: Reading - one literature fiction text from the 20th century.
Section B: Prose writing - one creative writing task selected from a choice of four titles.
This is assessed by one written exam (1 hour 45 minutes) made up of reading (20%) and writing (20%).
Section A: Reading - understanding of two extracts of high-quality non-fiction writing, one form the 19th century, the other from the 21st century.
Section B: Writing - two compulsory transaction.persuasive writing tasks.
This is assessed by one written exam (2 hours) made up of reading (30%) and writing (30%).
Non Examination Assessment: Spoken Language - Students must do one formal presentation and respond to questions using standard English. This will be set and marked by the teacher and be give a separate endorsement. This has no bearing on the GCSE final mark.
This is a separate GCSE qualification. We expect that most of our students will take English Literature as well as English Language.
A 19th century novel from a prescribed list eg Great Expectations, The Sign on Four, Frankenstein, A Christmas Carol etc.
Assessed by a written exam (1 hour 45 minutes), 40% of GCSE.
Papers 2: Modern Texts and Poetry. A post 1914 text eg Blood Brothers, An Inspector Calls, The History Boys, Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies etc.
Poetry from an anthology provided by AQA (15 poems): love and relationships or power and conflict.
Assessed by a written exam (2 hours and 15 minutes), 60% of GCSE.
We offer an enquiry based programme to those pupils who do not study a second language beyond year 7 and for whom extra literacy support is deemed appropriate. In Year 8 pupils develop their skills of enquiry through posing questions and investigating ways to solve problems in topic work such as a forensic crime unit, a writers and illustrators project and a media and marketing task. In Year 9 pupils develop their ability to research, evaluating sources and selecting information appropriate to task and audience in creating a Halloween menu for the school canteen and designing a city infrastructure. There are opportunities for the students to present ideas to experts in their fields such as the catering manager and an Allerdale town planner. At the end of the two year course students are entered for the AQA Foundation Projects Qualification, with excellent results.
The English department is also involved in delivering the COPE course for pupils who would benefit from extra support in their core skills of literacy and numeracy. This is an optional subject which will dovetail with the core GCSE English course and will also support all other subjects through the development of reading and writing skills. | 2019-04-20T09:04:36 | http://www.keswick.cumbria.sch.uk/English-GCSE |
Already one of the most celebrated pianists in the world, Chinese phenom Lang Lang is always working on new music and touring the globe, but these days, he seems to be spending even more of his time focused on his philanthropic efforts, which may one day positively affect more people than his music. The classical musician has just recently pledged to donate another $5 million in funds and supplies to help ensure students across the United States have a chance to learn to play the instrument that has turned him into a globally adored figure. Why? Forbes asked him about what makes this donation so important and why he feels that teaching the next generation how to tickle the ivory might be exactly what the world needs. | 2019-04-21T14:27:13 | http://www.crossovermedia.net/blog/entry/8C6948C0-C8E6-E8A3-7DBEC425D7E4080B/ |
- Does this mean it has NFC?
The first beta of iOS 12.3 has revealed something interesting about the Apple Card: the physical, titanium card will be activated through your iPhone in a similar way to AirPods, Beats headphones and the Apple HomePod.
You lay the card near your iPhone and you will see a window pop-up, showing that it has been recognised and can be activated. A tap on the "activate" button and your (literally) shiney new card will be unlocked to use in stores.
Apple's process was found by 9to5Mac while searching for changes in the latest beta version of iOS. What the site doesn't say though is how it works technically.
As far as we were aware, the physical Apple Card has just your name and the Apple logo engraved on it, with no CVV or number on the front or rear. There is also a chip for use in a store's chip and PIN reader. That's it.
There are no indications that it is contactless-enabled - although there are many suggestions to the contrary.
But if there is no NFC chip inside, how does your iPhone recognise it wirelessly?
We can't answer that right now, although we suspect that there might well be a previously unannounced contactless chip housed in the card that is only used for the one purpose: for communication on setup.
It makes sense; Apple would rather you used your iPhone to make contactless payments in stores than the card, while the card is purely provided to also make payments in retail outlets without Apple Pay support.
We'll find out more once the card itself is officially available. | 2019-04-24T22:49:59 | https://www.pocket-lint.com/phones/news/apple/147599-apple-card-will-be-recognised-by-your-iphone-automatically-for-activation |
This article is found when I clear my Evernote in the afternoon, it’s a fantastic story to get known the flow of how browser render a page, it’s also very help to understand font-side developing in some view. Share this article to blog, hope to find some time to translate it to Chinese.
The browser main functionality is to present the web resource you choose, by requesting it from the server and displaying it on the browser window. The resource is usually an HTML document, but may also be a PDF, image, or other type. The location of the resource is specified by the user using a URI (Uniform resource Identifier).
For years browsers conformed to only a part of the specifications and developed their own extensions. That caused serious compatibility issues for web authors. Today most of the browsers more or less conform to the specifications.
Strangely enough, the browser’s user interface is not specified in any formal specification, it just comes from good practices shaped over years of experience and by browsers imitating each other. The HTML5 specification doesn’t define UI elements a browser must have, but lists some common elements. Among those are the address bar, status bar and tool bar. There are, of course, features unique to a specific browser like Firefox’s downloads manager.
The user interface – this includes the address bar, back/forward button, bookmarking menu etc. Every part of the browser display except the main window where you see the requested page.
The browser engine – marshalls the actions between the UI and the rendering engine.
The rendering engine – responsible for displaying the requested content. For example if the requested content is HTML, it is responsible for parsing the HTML and CSS and displaying the parsed content on the screen.
Networking – used for network calls, like HTTP requests. It has platform independent interface and underneath implementations for each platform.
UI backend – used for drawing basic widgets like combo boxes and windows. It exposes a generic interface that is not platform specific. Underneath it uses the operating system user interface methods.
Data storage. This is a persistence layer. The browser needs to save all sorts of data on the hard disk, for examples, cookies. The new HTML specification (HTML5) defines ‘web database’ which is a complete (although light) database in the browser.
Figure : Browser main components.
It is important to note that Chrome, unlike most browsers, holds multiple instances of the rendering engine – one for each tab. Each tab is a separate process.
The responsibility of the rendering engine is well… Rendering, that is display of the requested contents on the browser screen.
By default the rendering engine can display HTML and XML documents and images. It can display other types through a plug-in (or browser extension); for example, displaying PDF using a PDF viewer plug-in. However, in this chapter we will focus on the main use case: displaying HTML and images that are formatted using CSS.
Our reference browsers – Firefox, Chrome and Safari are built upon two rendering engines. Firefox uses Gecko – a “home made” Mozilla rendering engine. Both Safari and Chrome use Webkit.
Webkit is an open source rendering engine which started as an engine for the Linux platform and was modified by Apple to support Mac and Windows. See webkit.org for more details.
The rendering engine will start getting the contents of the requested document from the networking layer. This will usually be done in 8K chunks.
Figure : Rendering engine basic flow.
The rendering engine will start parsing the HTML document and turn the tags to DOMnodes in a tree called the “content tree”. It will parse the style data, both in external CSS files and in style elements. The styling information together with visual instructions in the HTML will be used to create another tree – the render tree.
The render tree contains rectangles with visual attributes like color and dimensions. The rectangles are in the right order to be displayed on the screen.
After the construction of the render tree it goes through a “layout” process. This means giving each node the exact coordinates where it should appear on the screen. The next stage is painting – the render tree will be traversed and each node will be painted using the UI backend layer.
It’s important to understand that this is a gradual process. For better user experience, the rendering engine will try to display contents on the screen as soon as possible. It will not wait until all HTML is parsed before starting to build and layout the render tree. Parts of the content will be parsed and displayed, while the process continues with the rest of the contents that keeps coming from the network.
From figures 3 and 4 you can see that although Webkit and Gecko use slightly different terminology, the flow is basically the same.
Since parsing is a very significant process within the rendering engine, we will go into it a little more deeply. Let’s begin with a little introduction about parsing.
Parsing a document means translating it to some structure that makes sense – something the code can understand and use. The result of parsing is usually a tree of nodes that represent the structure of the document. It is called a parse tree or a syntax tree.
Parsing is based on the syntax rules the document obeys – the language or format it was written in. Every format you can parse must have deterministic grammar consisting of vocabulary and syntax rules. It is called a context free grammar. Human languages are not such languages and therefore cannot be parsed with conventional parsing techniques.
Parsing can be separated into two sub processes – lexical analysis and syntax analysis.
Lexical analysis is the process of breaking the input into tokens. Tokens are the language vocabulary – the collection of valid building blocks. In human language it will consist of all the words that appear in the dictionary for that language.
Syntax analysis is the applying of the language syntax rules.
Parsers usually divide the work between two components – the lexer (sometimes called tokenizer) that is responsible for breaking the input into valid tokens, and the parser that is responsible for constructing the parse tree by analyzing the document structure according to the language syntax rules. The lexer knows how to strip irrelevant characters like white spaces and line breaks.
The parsing process is iterative. The parser will usually ask the lexer for a new token and try to match the token with one of the syntax rules. If a rule is matched, a node corresponding to the token will be added to the parse tree and the parser will ask for another token.
If no rule matches, the parser will store the token internally, and keep asking for tokens until a rule matching all the internally stored tokens is found. If no rule is found then the parser will raise an exception. This means the document was not valid and contained syntax errors.
Many times the parse tree is not the final product. Parsing is often used in translation – transforming the input document to another format. An example is compilation. The compiler that compiles a source code into machine code first parses it into a parse tree and then translates the tree into a machine code document.
In figure 5 we built a parse tree from a mathematical expression. Let’s try to define a simple mathematical language and see the parse process.
Vocabulary: Our language can include integers, plus signs and minus signs.
The language syntax building blocks are expressions, terms and operations.
Our language can include any number of expressions.
2 + 3 – 1.
2 + 3this matches the third rule – a term followed by an operation followed by another term. The next match will only be hit at the end of the input.
2+3is a term so we have a term followed by an operation followed by another term.
2 + + will not match any rule and therefore is an invalid input.
Vocabulary is usually expressed by regular expressions.
As you see, integers are defined by a regular expression.
There are two basic types of parsers – top down parsers and bottom up parsers. An intuitive explanation is that top down parsers see the high level structure of the syntax and try to match one of them. Bottom up parsers start with the input and gradually transform it into the syntax rules, starting from the low level rules until high level rules are met.
2 + 3 – 1as an expression (the process of identifying the expression evolves matching the other rules, but the start point is the highest level rule).
The bottom up parser will scan the input until a rule is matched it will then replace the matching input with the rule. This will go on until the end of the input. The partly matched expression is placed on the parsers stack.
This type of bottom up parser is called a shift-reduce parser, because the input is shifted to the right (imagine a pointer pointing first at the input start and moving to the right) and is gradually reduced to syntax rules.
There are tools that can generate a parser for you. They are called parser generators. You feed them with the grammar of your language—its vocabulary and syntax rules—and they generate a working parser. Creating a parser requires a deep understanding of parsing and its not easy to create an optimized parser by hand, so parser generators can be very useful.
Webkit uses two well known parser generators – Flex for creating a lexer and Bison for creating a parser (you might run into them with the names Lex and Yacc). Flex input is a file containing regular expression definitions of the tokens. Bison’s input is the language syntax rules in BNF format.
The job of the HTML parser is to parse the HTML markup into a parse tree.
The vocabulary and syntax of HTML are defined in specifications created by the W3C organization. The current version is HTML4 and work on HTML5 is in progress.
As we have seen in the parsing introduction, grammar syntax can be defined formally using formats like BNF.
There is a formal format for defining HTML — DTD (Document Type Definition) — but it is not a context free grammar.
This appears strange at first sight; HTML is rather close to XML. There are lots of available XML parsers. There is an XML variation of HTML — XHTML — so what’s the big difference?
The difference is that HTML approach is more “forgiving”, it lets you omit certain tags which are added implicitly, sometimes omit the start or end of tags etc. On the whole it’s a “soft” syntax, as opposed to XML’s stiff and demanding syntax.
Apparently this seemingly small difference makes a world of a difference. On one hand this is the main reason why HTML is so popular – it forgives your mistakes and makes life easy for the web author. On the other hand, it makes it difficult to write a formal grammar. So to summarize – HTML cannot be parsed easily, not by conventional parsers since its grammar is not a context free grammar, and not by XML parsers.
HTML definition is in a DTD format. This format is used to define languages of the SGMLfamily. The format contains definitions for all allowed elements, their attributes and hierarchy. As we saw earlier, the HTML DTD doesn’t form a context free grammar.
The root of the tree is the “Document” object.
Like HTML, DOM is specified by the W3C organization. See www.w3.org/DOM/DOMTR. It is a generic specification for manipulating documents. A specific module describes HTML specific elements. The HTML definitions can be found here: www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-DOM-Level-2-HTML-20030109/idl-definitions.html.
When I say the tree contains DOM nodes, I mean the tree is constructed of elements that implement one of the DOM interfaces. Browsers use concrete implementations that have other attributes used by the browser internally.
As we saw in the previous sections, HTML cannot be parsed using the regular top down or bottom up parsers.
can add extra tokens, so the parsing process actually modifies the input.
Unable to use the regular parsing techniques, browsers create custom parsers for parsing HTML.
The parsing algorithm is described in detail by the HTML5 specification. The algorithm consists of two stages – tokenization and tree construction.
Tokenization is the lexical analysis, parsing the input into tokens. Among HTML tokens are start tags, end tags, attribute names and attribute values.
The tokenizer recognizes the token, gives it to the tree constructor, and consumes the next character for recognizing the next token, and so on until the end of the input.
The algorithm’s output is an HTML token. The algorithm is expressed as a state machine. Each state consumes one or more characters of the input stream and updates the next state according to those characters. The decision is influenced by the current tokenization state and by the tree construction state. This means the same consumed character will yield different results for the correct next state, depending on the current state. The algorithm is too complex to describe fully, so let’s see a simple example that will help us understand the principle.
input will be treated like the previous case.
When the parser is created the Document object is created. During the tree construction stage the DOM tree with the Document in its root will be modified and elements will be added to it. Each node emitted by the tokenizer will be processed by the tree constructor. For each token the specification defines which DOM element is relevant to it and will be created for this token. Except of adding the element to the DOM tree it is also added to a stack of open elements. This stack is used to correct nesting mismatches and unclosed tags. The algorithm is also described as a state machine. The states are called “insertion modes”.
The input to the tree construction stage is a sequence of tokens from the tokenization stage The first mode is the “initial mode”. Receiving the html token will cause a move to the“before html” mode and a reprocessing of the token in that mode. This will cause a creation of the HTMLHtmlElement element and it will be appended to the root Document object.
The state will be changed to “before head”. We receive the “body” token. An HTMLHeadElement will be created implicitly although we don’t have a “head” token and it will be added to the tree.
We now move to the “in head” mode and then to “after head”. The body token is reprocessed, an HTMLBodyElement is created and inserted and the mode is transferred to“in body”.
The character tokens of the “Hello world” string are now received. The first one will cause creation and insertion of a “Text” node and the other characters will be appended to that node.
The receiving of the body end token will cause a transfer to “after body” mode. We will now receive the html end tag which will move us to “after after body” mode. Receiving the end of file token will end the parsing.
At this stage the browser will mark the document as interactive and start parsing scripts that are in “deferred” mode – those who should be executed after the document is parsed. The document state will be then set to “complete” and a “load” event will be fired.
You never get an “Invalid Syntax” error on an HTML page. Browsers fix any invalid content and go on.
I must have violated about a million rules (“mytag” is not a standard tag, wrong nesting of the “p” and “div” elements and more) but the browser still shows it correctly and doesn’t complain. So a lot of the parser code is fixing the HTML author mistakes.
The error handling is quite consistent in browsers but amazingly enough it’s not part of HTML current specification. Like bookmarking and back/forward buttons it’s just something that developed in browsers over the years. There are known invalid HTML constructs that repeat themselves in many sites and the browsers try to fix them in a conformant way with other browsers.
The parser parses tokenized input into the document, building up the document tree. If the document is well-formed, parsing it is straightforward.
Unfortunately, we have to handle many HTML documents that are not well-formed, so the parser has to be tolerant about errors.
The element being added is explicitly forbidden inside some outer tag. In this case we should close all tags up to the one, which forbids the element, and add it afterwards.
We are not allowed to add the element directly. It could be that the person writing the document forgot some tag in between (or that the tag in between is optional). This could be the case with the following tags: HTML HEAD BODY TBODY TR TD LI (did I forget any?).
We want to add a block element inside to an inline element. Close all inline elements up to the next higher block element.
If this doesn’t help, close elements until we are allowed to add the element or ignore the tag.
Some sites use </br> instead of <br>. In order to be compatible with IE and Firefox, Webkit treats this like <br>.
Note – the error handling is internal – it won’t be presented to the user.
A stray table is a table inside another table contents but not inside a table cell.
Webkit uses a stack for the current element contents – it will pop the inner table out of the outer table stack. The tables will now be siblings.
In case the user puts a form inside another form, the second form is ignored.
The comment speaks for itself.
www.liceo.edu.mx is an example of a site that achieves a level of nesting of about 1500 tags, all from a bunch of <b>s. We will only allow at most 20 nested tags of the same type before just ignoring them all together.
Again – the comment speaks for itself.
Support for really broken html. We never close the body tag, since some stupid web pages close it before the actual end of the doc. Let’s rely on the end() call to close things.
So web authors beware – unless you want to appear as an example in a Webkit error tolerance code snippet – write well formed HTML.
Remember the parsing concepts in the introduction? Well, unlike HTML, CSS is a context free grammar and can be parsed using the types of parsers described in the introduction. In fact the CSS specification defines CSS lexical and syntax grammar.
The syntax grammar is described in BNF.
This means a ruleset is a selector or optionally number of selectors separated by a coma and spaces (S stands for white space). A ruleset contains curly braces and inside them a declaration or optionally a number of declarations separated by a semicolon. “declaration” and “selector” will be defined in the following BNF definitions.
Webkit uses Flex and Bison parser generators to create parsers automatically from the CSS grammar files. As you recall from the parser introduction, Bison creates a bottom up shift-reduce parser. Firefox uses a top down parser written manually. In both cases each CSS file is parsed into a StyleSheet object, each object contains CSS rules. The CSS rule objects contain selector and declaration objects and other object corresponding to CSS grammar.
The model of the web is synchronous. Authors expect scripts to be parsed and executed immediately when the parser reaches a <script> tag. The parsing of the document halts until the script was executed. If the script is external then the resource must be first fetched from the network – this is also done synchronously, the parsing halts until the resource is fetched. This was the model for many years and is also specified in HTML 4 and 5 specifications. Authors could mark the script as “defer” and thus it will not halt the document parsing and will execute after it is parsed. HTML5 adds an option to mark the script as asynchronous so it will be parsed and executed by a different thread.
Both Webkit and Firefox do this optimization. While executing scripts, another thread parses the rest of the document and finds out what other resources need to be loaded from the network and loads them. This way resources can be loaded on parallel connections and the overall speed is better. Note – the speculative parser doesn’t modify the DOM tree and leaves that to the main parser, it only parses references to external resources like external scripts, style sheets and images.
Style sheets on the other hand have a different model. Conceptually it seems that since style sheets don’t change the DOM tree, there is no reason to wait for them and stop the document parsing. There is an issue, though, of scripts asking for style information during the document parsing stage. If the style is not loaded and parsed yet, the script will get wrong answers and apparently this caused lots of problems. It seems to be an edge case but is quite common. Firefox blocks all scripts when there is a style sheet that is still being loaded and parsed. Webkit blocks scripts only when they try to access certain style properties that may be effected by unloaded style sheets.
While the DOM tree is being constructed, the browser constructs another tree, the render tree. This tree is of visual elements in the order in which they will be displayed. It is the visual representation of the document. The purpose of this tree is to enable painting the contents in their correct order.
Firefox calls the elements in the render tree “frames”. Webkit uses the term renderer or render object.
A renderer knows how to layout and paint itself and its children.
Each renderer represents a rectangular area usually corresponding to the node’s CSS box, as described by the CSS2 spec. It contains geometric information like width, height and position.
The box type is affected by the “display” style attribute that is relevant for the node (see thestyle computation section). Here is Webkit code for deciding what type of renderer should be created for a DOM node, according to the display attribute.
The element type is also considered, for example form controls and tables have special frames.
method. The renderers points to style objects that contains the non geometric information.
The renderers correspond to the DOM elements, but the relation is not one to one. Non visual DOM elements will not be inserted in the render tree. An example is the “head” element. Also elements whose display attribute was assigned to “none” will not appear in the tree (elements with “hidden” visibility attribute will appear in the tree).
There are DOM elements which correspond to several visual objects. These are usually elements with complex structure that cannot be described by a single rectangle. For example, the “select” element has 3 renderers – one for the display area, one for the drop down list box and one for the button. Also when text is broken into multiple lines because the width is not sufficient for one line, the new lines will be added as extra renderers.
Another example of several renderers is broken HTML. According to CSS spec an inline element must contain either only block element or only inline elements. In case of mixed content, anonymous block renderers will be created to wrap the inline elements.
Some render objects correspond to a DOM node but not in the same place in the tree. Floats and absolutely positioned elements are out of flow, placed in a different place in the tree, and mapped to the real frame. A placeholder frame is where they should have been.
Figure : The render tree and the corresponding DOM tree (3.1). The “Viewport” is the initial containing block. In Webkit it will be the “RenderView” object.
and the constructor resolves style (seestyle computation) and creates a frame.
In Webkit the process of resolving the style and creating a renderer is called “attachment”. Every DOM node has an “attach” method. Attachment is synchronous, node insertion to the DOM tree calls the new node “attach” method.
. This is the render object that the document points to. The rest of the tree is constructed as a DOM nodes insertion.
See the CSS2 spec on the processing model.
Building the render tree requires calculating the visual properties of each render object. This is done by calculating the style properties of each element.
The style includes style sheets of various origins, inline style elements and visual properties in the HTML (like the “bgcolor” property).The later is translated to matching CSS style properties.
The origins of style sheets are the browser’s default style sheets, the style sheets provided by the page author and user style sheets – these are style sheets provided by the browser user (browsers let you define your favorite style. In Firefox, for instance, this is done by placing a style sheet in the “Firefox Profile” folder).
Style data is a very large construct, holding the numerous style properties, this can cause memory problems.
element. You choose a certain path up the tree for checking. You may need to traverse the node tree up just to find out there are only two divs and the rule does not apply. You then need to try other paths in the tree.
Applying the rules involves quite complex cascade rules that define the hierarchy of the rules.
Firefox has two extra trees for easier style computation – the rule tree and style context tree. Webkit also has style objects but they are not stored in a tree like the style context tree, only the DOM node points to its relevant style.
The style contexts contain end values. The values are computed by applying all the matching rules in the correct order and performing manipulations that transform them from logical to concrete values. For example – if the logical value is percentage of the screen it will be calculated and transformed to absolute units. The rule tree idea is really clever. It enables sharing these values between nodes to avoid computing them again. This also saves space.
All the matched rules are stored in a tree. The bottom nodes in a path have higher priority. The tree contains all the paths for rule matches that were found. Storing the rules is done lazily. The tree isn’t calculated at the beginning for every node, but whenever a node style needs to be computed the computed paths are added to the tree.
Suppose we need to match rules for another element in the content tree, and find out the matched rules (in the correct order) are B – E – I. We already have this path in the tree because we already computed path A – B – E – I – L. We will now have less work to do.
Let’s see how the tree saves us work.
The style contexts are divided into structs. Those structs contain style information for a certain category like border or color. All the properties in a struct are either inherited or non inherited. Inherited properties are properties that unless defined by the element, are inherited from its parent. Non inherited properties (called “reset” properties) use default values if not defined.
The tree helps us by caching entire structs (containing the computed end values) in the tree. The idea is that if the bottom node didn’t supply a definition for a struct, a cached struct in an upper node can be used.
When computing the style context for a certain element, we first compute a path in the rule tree or use an existing one. We then begin to apply the rules in the path to fill the structs in our new style context. We start at the bottom node of the path – the one with the highest precedence (usually the most specific selector) and traverse the tree up until our struct is full. If there is no specification for the struct in that rule node, then we can greatly optimize – we go up the tree until we find a node that specifies it fully and simply point to it – that’s the best optimization – the entire struct is shared. This saves computation of end values and memory.
If we find partial definitions we go up the tree until the struct is filled.
If we didn’t find any definitions for our struct, then in case the struct is an “inherited” type – we point to the struct of our parent in the context tree, in this case we also succeeded in sharing structs. If its a reset struct then default values will be used.
If the most specific node does add values then we need to do some extra calculations for transforming it to actual values. We then cache the result in the tree node so it can be used by children.
In case an element has a sibling or a brother that points to the same tree node then theentire style context can be shared between them.
To simplify things let’s say we need to fill out only two structs – the color struct and the margin struct. The color struct contains only one member – the color The margin struct contains the four sides.
Suppose we parse the HTML and get to the second <div> tag. We need to create a style context for this node and fill its style structs.
We will match the rules and discover that the matching rules for the <div> are 1 ,2 and 6. This means there is already an existing path in the tree that our element can use and we just need to add another node to it for rule 6 (node F in the rule tree).
We will create a style context and put it in the context tree. The new style context will point to node F in the rule tree.
We now need to fill the style structs. We will begin by filling out the margin struct. Since the last rule node(F) doesn’t add to the margin struct, we can go up the tree until we find a cached struct computed in a previous node insertion and use it. We will find it on node B, which is the uppermost node that specified margin rules.
We do have a definition for the color struct, so we can’t use a cached struct. Since color has one attribute we don’t need to go up the tree to fill other attributes. We will compute the end value (convert string to RGB etc) and cache the computed struct on this node.
The work on the second <span> element is even easier. We will match the rules and come to the conclusion that it points to rule G, like the previous span. Since we have siblings that point to the same node, we can share the entire style context and just point to the context of the previous span.
For structs that contain rules that are inherited from the parent, caching is done on the context tree (the color property is actually inherited, but Firefox treats it as reset and caches it on the rule tree).
Then the paragraph element, which is a child of the div in the context tree, could have shared the same font struct as his parent. This is if no font rules where specified for the paragraph.
In Webkit, who does not have a rule tree, the matched declarations are traversed 4 times. First non important high priority properties (properties that should be applied first because others depend on them – like display) are applied, than high priority important, then normal priority non important, then normal priority important rules. This means that properties that appear multiple times will be resolved according to the correct cascade order. The last wins.
So to summarize – sharing the style objects (entirely or some of the structs inside them) solves issues 1 and 3. Firefox rule tree also helps in applying the properties in the correct order.
CSS rules, either in external style sheets or in style elements.
The last two are easily matched to the element since he owns the style attributes and HTML attributes can be mapped using the element as the key.
As noted previously in issue #2, the CSS rule matching can be trickier. To solve the difficulty, the rules are manipulated for easier access.
After parsing the style sheet, the rules are added to one of several hash maps, according to the selector. There are maps by id, by class name, by tag name and a general map for anything that doesn’t fit into those categories. If the selector is an id, the rule will be added to the id map, if it’s a class it will be added to the class map etc.
This manipulation makes it much easier to match rules. There is no need to look in every declaration – we can extract the relevant rules for an element from the maps. This optimization eliminates 95+% of the rules, so that they need not even be considered during the matching process(4.1).
The first rule will be inserted into the class map. The second into the id map and the third into the tag map.
We will first try to find rules for the p element. The class map will contain an “error” key under which the rule for “p.error” is found. The div element will have relevant rules in the id map (the key is the id) and the tag map. So the only work left is finding out which of the rules that were extracted by the keys really match.
it will still be extracted from the tag map, because the key is the rightmost selector, but it would not match our div element, who does not have a table ancestor.
Both Webkit and Firefox do this manipulation.
The style object has properties corresponding to every visual attribute (all css attributes but more generic). If the property is not defined by any of the matched rules – then some properties can be inherited by the parent element style object. Other properties have default values.
The problem begins when there is more than one definition – here comes the cascade order to solve the issue.
The browser declarations are least important and the user overrides the author only if the declaration was marked as important. Declarations with the same order will be sorted byspecificity and then the order they are specified. The HTML visual attributes are translated to matching CSS declarations . They are treated as author rules with low priority.
The number base you need to use is defined by the highest count you have in one of the categories.
For example, if a=14 you can use hexadecimal base. In the unlikely case where a=17 you will need a 17 digits number base. The later situation can happen with a selector like this: html body div div p … (17 tags in your selector.. not very likely).
Webkit uses a flag that marks if all top level style sheets (including @imports) have been loaded. If the style is not fully loaded when attaching – place holders are used and it is marked in the document, and they will be recalculated once the style sheets were loaded.
When the renderer is created and added to the tree, it does not have a position and size. Calculating these values is called layout or reflow.
HTML uses a flow based layout model, meaning that most of the time it is possible to compute the geometry in a single pass. Elements later “in the flow” typically do not affect the geometry of elements that are earlier “in the flow”, so layout can proceed left-to-right, top-to-bottom through the document. There are exceptions – for example, HTML tables may require more than one pass (3.5).
The coordinate system is relative to the root frame. Top and left coordinates are used.
element of the HTML document. Layout continues recursively through some or all of the frame hierarchy, computing geometric information for each renderer that requires it.
The position of the root renderer is 0,0 and its dimensions are the viewport – the visible part of the browser window.
All renderers have a “layout” or “reflow” method, each renderer invokes the layout method of its children that need layout.
In order not to do a full layout for every small change, browsers use a “dirty bit” system. A renderer that is changed or added marks itself and its children as “dirty” – needing layout.
There are two flags – “dirty” and “children are dirty”. Children are dirty means that although the renderer itself may be ok, it has at least one child that needs a layout.
A global style change that affects all renderers, like a font size change.
Layout can be incremental, only the dirty renderers will be layed out (this can cause some damage which will require extra layouts).
Incremental layout is triggered (asynchronously) when renderers are dirty. For example when new renderers are appended to the render tree after extra content came from the network and was added to the DOM tree.
Figure : Incremental layout – only dirty renderers and their children are layed out (3.6).
Incremental layout is done asynchronously. Firefox queues “reflow commands” for incremental layouts and a scheduler triggers batch execution of these commands. Webkit also has a timer that executes an incremental layout – the tree is traversed and “dirty” renderers are layout out.
Scripts asking for style information, like “offsetHeight” can trigger incremental layout synchronously.
Global layout will usually be triggered synchronously.
Sometimes layout is triggered as a callback after an initial layout because some attributes , like the scrolling position changed.
When a layout is triggered by a “resize” or a change in the renderer position(and not size), the renders sizes are taken from a cache and not recalculated..
In some cases – only a sub tree is modified and layout does not start from the root. This can happen in cases where the change is local and does not affect its surroundings – like text inserted into text fields (otherwise every keystroke would have triggered a layout starting from the root).
Parent renderer determines its own width.
Place the child renderer (sets its x and y).
Calls child layout if needed(they are dirty or we are in a global layout or some other reason) – this calculates the child’s height.
Parent uses children accumulative heights and the heights of the margins and paddings to set it’s own height – this will be used by the parent renderer’s parent.
Sets its dirty bit to false.
Firefox uses a “state” object(nsHTMLReflowState) as a parameter to layout (termed “reflow”). Among others the state includes the parents width.
The output of the Firefox layout is a “metrics” object(nsHTMLReflowMetrics). It will contain the renderer computed height.
The renderer’s width is calculated using the container block’s width, the renderer’s style “width” property, the margins and borders.
clientWidth and clientHeight represent the interior of an object excluding border and scrollbar.
The elements width is the “width” style attribute. It will be calculated as an absolute value by computing the percentage of the container width.
The horizontal borders and paddings are now added.
So far this was the calculation of the “preferred width”. Now the minimum and maximum widths will be calculated.
If the preferred width is higher then the maximum width – the maximum width is used. If it is lower then the minimum width (the smallest unbreakable unit) then the minimum width is used.
The values are cached, in case a layout is needed but the width does not change.
When a renderer in the middle of layout decides it needs to break. It stops and propagates to its parent it needs to be broken. The parent will create the extra renderers and calls layout on them.
In the painting stage, the render tree is traversed and the renderers “paint” method is called to display their content on the screen. Painting uses the UI infrastructure component.
Like layout, painting can also be global – the entire tree is painted – or incremental. In incremental painting, some of the renderers change in a way that does not affect the entire tree. The changed renderer invalidates it’s rectangle on the screen. This causes the OS to see it as a “dirty region” and generate a “paint” event. The OS does it cleverly and coalesces several regions into one. In Chrome it is more complicated because the renderer is in a different process then the main process. Chrome simulates the OS behavior to some extent. The presentation listens to these events and delegates the message to the render root. The tree is traversed until the relevant renderer is reached. It will repaint itself (and usually its children).
Firefox goes over the render tree and builds a display list for the painted rectangular. It contains the renderers relevant for the rectangular, in the right painting order (backgrounds of the renderers, then borders etc). That way the tree needs to be traversed only once for a repaint instead of several times – painting all backgrounds, then all images , then all borders etc.
Firefox optimizes the process by not adding elements that will be hidden, like elements completely beneath other opaque elements.
Before repainting, webkit saves the old rectangle as a bitmap. It then paints only the delta between the new and old rectangles.
The browsers try to do the minimal possible actions in response to a change. So changes to an elements color will cause only repaint of the element. Changes to the element position will cause layout and repaint of the element, its children and possibly siblings. Adding a DOM node will cause layout and repaint of the node. Major changes, like increasing font size of the “html” element, will cause invalidation of caches, relayout and repaint of the entire tree.
The rendering engine is single threaded. Almost everything, except network operations, happens in a single thread. In Firefox and safari this is the main thread of the browser. In chrome it’s the tab process main thread.
Network operations can be performed by several parallel threads. The number of parallel connections is limited (usually 2 – 6 connections. Firefox 3, for example, uses 6).
According to CSS2 specification, the term canvas describes “the space where the formatting structure is rendered.” – where the browser paints the content. The canvas is infinite for each dimension of the space but browsers choose an initial width based on the dimensions of the viewport.
According to www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/zindex.html, the canvas is transparent if contained within another, and given a browser defined color if it is not.
Each box has a content area (e.g., text, an image, etc.) and optional surrounding padding, border, and margin areas.
Each node generates 0..n such boxes.
The default is inline but the browser style sheet set other defaults. For example – the default display for “div” element is block.
The positioning scheme is set by the “position” property and the “float” attribute.
In static positioning no position is defined and the default positioning is used. In the other schemes, the author specifies the position – top,bottom,left,right.
Block box: forms a block – have their own rectangle on the browser window.
Inline box: does not have its own block, but is inside a containing block.
Blocks are formatted vertically one after the other. Inlines are formatted horizontally.
Inline boxes are put inside lines or “line boxes”. The lines are at least as tall as the tallest box but can be taller, when the boxes are aligned “baseline” – meaning the bottom part of an element is aligned at a point of another box other then the bottom. In case the container width is not enough, the inlines will be put in several lines. This is usually what happens in a paragraph.
Relative positioning – positioned like usual and then moved by the required delta.
The layout is defined exactly regardless of the normal flow. The element does not participate in the normal flow. The dimensions are relative to the container. In fixed – the container is the view port.
Note – the fixed box will not move even when the document is scrolled!
It is specified by the z-index CSS property. It represents the 3rd dimension of the box, its position along the “z axis”.
The boxes are divided to stacks (called stacking contexts). In each stack the back elements will be painted first and the forward elements on top, closer to the user. In case of overlap the foremost element will hide the former element.
The stacks are ordered according to the z-index property. Boxes with “z-index” property form a local stack. The viewport has the outer stack.
Although the red div precedes the green one in the markup, and would have been painted before in the regular flow, the z-index property is higher, so it is more forward in the stack held by the root box. | 2019-04-25T20:43:54 | http://blog.yole.me/how-browsers-work/ |

Victor Bohnam Carter's Authors by Profession, tells the sad story of John Milton, blind, deprived of his pension and suffering from financial hardships, signing a hellish publishing contract for his epic poem, Paradise Lost. "The agreement was dated April 27, 1667, and provided that Milton receive £5 for the first edition or impression of 1300 copies, £5 for the second, and the same for the third.” Under the agreement, Milton transferred "All that Booke, Copy, or Manuscript" to his publisher with "the full benefit, profit, and advantage thereof, or w[hic]h shall or may arise thereby." Milton died in 1674. During his lifetime he received a total of £10 from his publisher Samuel Symons. Milton’s widow later sold the copyright to Symons for £8.
Contract for John Milton's "Paradise Lost"
When the owner of an independently operated publishing company wishes to sell their company, they will need to establish the value of the business they have built. The sale price will be based on the discounted cash flow of the company, and, ultimately, the soundness of its author agreements. Many start-ups are poorly financed, and in the beginning the owners have neither the time nor foresight to focus on their most important asset, their author contract template. This error at the outset of a publisher's career can frustrate their ability to sell the company in later years.
Problems often arise when publishers borrow an agreement found online. Lacking legal acumen, a start-up publisher may delete important provisions that they do not fully understand - or inadvertently carry forward a "poison pill." For example, an anti-assignment clause. Generally, a contract is fully assignable unless it contains such a clause.
Experience is a hard school. To illustrate: Owen, a successful independent publisher, with a backlist of 65 books, decides to sell the assets of his company. In his late-50s, with no children to take over the business, his exit strategy is to bankroll the sale of his growing company into an early retirement. As part of the seller's due diligence process he compiles all of the company’s author agreements, foreign translation licenses, financials and other important documents for a prospective buyer to review. To his dismay, his attorney and broker call to say the deal has gone south because the publishing agreement he filched off the Internet when money was tight, contains a non-assignment clause. The clause reads, “Neither this agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or delegated, in whole or part, by either party without the prior express written consent of the other.
What should have been a straight forward business transaction, now requires the consent of all of Owen's authors, and in one instance, all of a deceased author's uncompromising heirs. Plus, the author of the crown jewel of Owen's backlist (which generates 50% of the company's gross annual revenue) will use the pending sale to renegotiate her contract -- a contract she desperately wants to get out of. Is there a way around the discretionary power Owen inadvertently invested in his authors? Perhaps.
There are two ways to buy a company. Stock sales and asset sales. In certain states the acquisition of stock in the target company will not violate an anti-assignment clause. However, buyers prefer assets sales.
If an agent, or author, wishes to insert an anti-assignment clause in your agreement, resist. Or, consider carving out exceptions for the sale of substantially all of your company's assets, or the sale of the company to a related company.
TIP: If you change a boilerplate contract clause for a particular transaction, be careful not to use the revised contract as a template for future deals, unless that is your express intention.
While there are publishing programs at many universities, and organizations such as the IBPA to educate future publishers, at best you will receive an introduction to contracts. When starting out, don't hesitate to hire a lawyer familiar with the industry. There are a fair number of attorneys across the country who are intimately familiar with the book publishing industry. You can't afford not to call one of them.
If you want to succeed as a publisher you must have a well drafted author-publisher agreement. Then, through persistence and luck, you are in a position to make the most of the opportunities ahead.

After you have ceased to be, or in the words of Monty Python, "run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible," your copyrights will endure for another 70 years. Roughly the life of a cockatoo or Amazonian parrot.
This article is about how to build an enduring estate plan for your children, and your children's children's children. One that respects your desires, and mitigates the chance of bitter fights over legal technicalities.
Long term planning is required because copyrights are long term propositions. For works published before 1978, copyrights last for 95 years from the date of first publication. For works created after 1977, copyright lasts for the life of the author plus another 70 years.
Who will deal with the myriad of other issues that arise during the life of a copyright? Read on.
Who Will Manage Your Literary Legacy?
While during your life you may be able to play catch-up with legal formalities, unless you have a well-drafted will, or have created a valid trust (or both) for the benefit of others, you have left the ownership and care of your literary legacy largely to chance.
Ideally, authors should name a "Literary Executor" in their will. An "executor" is a person responsible for settling a deceased person's estate. Among the duties of a General Executor (as opposed to Literary Executor) are contacting an attorney to file a petition for probate of the will; collecting debts owed to the estate; filing for life insurance and other benefits; contacting an accountant (or attorney) to prepare the decedent's final income tax returns, a federal estate tax return and state estate and inheritance tax returns as may be required; and notifying the beneficiaries named in the will.
person selected for the limited purpose of managing your published and unpublished works when you pass on.
One court described the Literary Executor's role as "requir[ing] a delicate balance between economic enhancement and cultural nurture." If you have made the appropriate provisions in your will, your Literary Executor will distribute all of the literary property that you owned at the time of your death, and can manage your literary estate on an ongoing basis.
The Literary Executor, acting on behalf of the beneficiaries under your will (e.g. family members, a designated charity, a research library or archive), will be responsible for entering into contracts for exploitation of your copyrights and other intellectual property rights; controlling access to unpublished works; collecting royalties; maintaining your copyrights and legacy; and, if called for, donating your letters, unpublished manuscripts, and other literary materials to a library, special collection or historical society.
Unlike a general executor who gets the deceased's estate ready to distribute, the literary executor's job is not for a limited time. It is coextensive with the life of the copyright.
Because of the enduring, and changeable, nature of copyrights (e.g. revised editions, film adaptations), the duties of a Literary Executor, or Literary Trustee, projects decades into the future and are ongoing.
Be forewarned. Copyrights are complicated. For example, a literary executor is trusted to advise an author's heirs on the process of copyright termination. The Copyright Act gives an author's heirs the inalienable right to terminate certain agreements made during an author's lifetime - even if those agreements were in perpetuity. The mechanics of the termination process are astonishingly complex. Notices must be served within a prescribed period. If the author's heirs miss the window, or file an improperly drafted notice, the grant or transfer made during the author's lifetime continues in full force for the life of the copyright.
A General Executor will often be a spouse or other family member that does not have experience with literary matters. Therefore, you should consider entrusting the care of your papers, existing contracts and unpublished manuscripts to a Literary Executor.
By taking the time to carefully select a Literary Executor, you lessen the likelihood of bitter infra-family disputes over control of your work or works. Family squabbles over copyright control can easily frustrate the ability of scholars, publishers and producers who want to quote, publish or produce your work. And, if your final wish is that your unfinished play based on your aunt Hilda's lesbian affair go unpublished or un-produced, you can provide in your will that your Literary Executor destroy your manuscript after your death. By way of example, Ernest Hemingway (1898 - 1961) made it clear during his lifetime that he did not want his unfinished and unpublished story fragments and manuscripts published after his death. However, since his will was silent on the subject, his estate edited and released not just his early stories, but three unfinished novels (one of which was a posthumous collaboration with his son, Patrick). All three were reviewed poorly.
Ideally, your Literary Executor should be someone who understands how the publishing industry works. That person should also be comfortable with negotiating contracts, and savvy enough to hire an attorney. A Literary Executor should also be someone who will carry out your intentions - even at the expense to your beneficiaries of foregoing untapped royalties. And, since all things come to an end -- including Literary Executors -- you should provide in your will for a replacement when the estate's Literary Executor dies or becomes incapacitated.
Because the duties and powers of a Literary Executor are not defined by statute, it is imperative that the person drafting your will take great care in describing the scope of your Literary Executor's duties. The powers of a Literary Executor should be as broad and comprehensive as possible, unless, of course, you believe there should be limitations, qualifications or conditions imposed upon your Literary Executor (e.g., different executors appointed for book publishing and theater-related matters).
Will the Literary Executor have the sole and exclusive right to make all decisions regarding appropriate publication, republication, sale, license or other exploitation of your work? Or, should she merely be appointed as an advisor to the General Executor?
Will the Literary Executor be responsible for preparing unfinished or unpublished manuscripts for publication and seeing those works through publication?
Will the Literary Executor have the right to terminate copyright licenses?
Will they have the power to destroy any letters or papers they believe should be destroyed?
In return for their services, will the Literary Executor receive a fee or commission for their services? What is fair compensation? What about reimbursement for expenses?
Will the Literary Executor be required to maintain a separate bank account for such monies?
Will the Literary Executor have the sole right to sue for infringement of copyrights?
Will the Literary Executor have the authority to pay accountants attorneys, agents, subagents and others?
In the event the Literary Executor is unwilling or unable to perform her duties, what are the provisions for appointing her successor? Or, will the General Executor assume those duties?
While a family member may agree to work for free, attorneys and literary agents will most likely seek a fee of between 10% and 15% for new contracts they negotiate on behalf of the estate. With regard to administering existing contracts, fee arrangements can vary greatly depending upon the size of the literary estate and the responsibilities of the Literary Executor.
In some instances, an author may create a lifetime (“inter-vivos”) trust and transfer literary assets to the trust. In this case, a trustee will be appointed to carry out responsibilities similar to an Executor. In such instances, the author appoints a "Literary Trustee" who acts in much the same manner as a "Literary Executor" would under a decedent's will. Furthermore, if an author names trusts as beneficiaries under his will and literary assets will be transferred to such trusts, then the author must also name, in addition to a Literary Executor, a Literary Trustee (who would be the same person) in order to continue acting in such a capacity after the literary assets have been transferred to the trusts.
If you have accumulated enough wealth so that your assets will be subject to an estate tax upon your death, then the Executor will be responsible for valuing all of your assets at that time, including manuscripts, copyrights and contractual rights derived from the publication and reproduction of your works. The Executor (or Literary Executor, as the case may be) should hire an appraiser with significant experience in appraising -- or valuing -- these interests. Authors with significant estates should meet with their attorney or accountant now to determine whether any lifetime planning can be employed to reduce the value of their estates at their death so that more assets can pass to their heirs.
We recognize that most people don't like to talk about their mortality. Our advice is don't remain nailed to your perch. Tend to your copyrights now. If you have questions about copyrights and estate planning, please feel free to contact us.

Nearly everyone has heard the oft-repeated statistic that 50% of all marriages end in divorce. The odds are no better with creative partnerships than with romantic ones. Pity the poor writer, expert, or public figure who enters into a creative partnership without thinking about the financial, emotional and practical challenges ahead of them. If the relationship falters, a well-drafted collaboration agreement (written during the romance stage of the relationship) can be consulted.
Contracts define the parties' goals, their rights and remedies, and recognizes what could go wrong. The key reasons collaborations fail are lack of commitment, lack of communication and unrealistic expectations. And, the inability to deliver a final manuscript that is complete and satisfactory in the amount of time allotted.
The art of converting a deal into an effective agreement, requires you to address the following: (i) money (how much and when paid), (ii) business and creative decision-making authority, (iii) ownership, (iv) authorship credit, and (v) how to handle disputes.
How you choose to address these issues depends largely on your sense of fairness, your bargaining power, industry custom and practice, and, if you are represented by an attorney, their support and guidance in reaching a workable agreement. And yes, sometimes it's not about the money, but what the book can do for you, your brand, or a cause that matters to you.
In the absence of a formal agreement, the way copyright law deals with authorship is black and white. When two people blend their independently copyrightable contributions with the intent to write a book, or other creative work, each party is presumed to co-own the copyright. That allows either party to publish the work without the other's permission. If there is no written agreement, each co-author receives 50% of the profits. Judges do not apportion a larger or smaller share based on the collaborators' contributions, experience, reputation or seniority.
Decision-making problems arise when there are multiple offers for the work or requests for exclusive rights and no written agreement exists between the parties. If there is no written agreement, or the agreement fails to address the issue, an uncooperative co-author (or a deceased co-author's estate) can prevent the other party from licensing or selling book, film or other rights, as no publisher, or producer, will acquire rights on a non-exclusive basis. If the book is a memoir, or an extension of one author's business or brand, then that party should be concerned about controlling business and creative decisions. Relinquishing control, or foregoing credit, however, does not necessarily mean the party giving up those rights receives a smaller financial interest. Neither does it equate with lack accountability or transparency, provided those concerns are advanced by the party drafting - or negotiating - the agreement.
If you are a ghostwriter of a memoir, or the writer of an "as told to" based on conversations with the subject, are you delivering a “warts and all” portrait? Alternatively, is your role to put the best face on your subject’s story, without resorting to blatant deception? You need to flesh this out. In drafting the agreement, the subject's attorney will structure it so payment to the writer is tied to delivery and acceptance of the manuscript.
Compensation is generally in the form of progress payments tied to satisfactory (and timely) delivery. A portion of the writer's fee is paid on signing the ghostwriter or collaboration agreement. A further payment will be due on delivery of an acceptable book proposal. If the book is is sold to a publisher, further payments will be tied to payments of the advance. The greater you detail what is to be delivered, the less arbitrary the acceptance standards will be.
If you can't hold it together long enough to see the work published, the impact of a literary breakup can be devastating. One such disaster scenario is the unilateral termination of "as told to" collaborations, such as the failed collaboration between Fay Vincent, the former commissioner of baseball, and writer David Kaplan, who worked without a contract, on the chance a publisher would acquire the book and pay them an advance. The authors signed a deal with Little Brown, which promised to pay them an advance of $300,000, half of which was paid on signing, with balance due on delivery and acceptance of the complete manuscript. After 90% of Vincent’s memoir was completed, Vincent withdrew the project from his publisher, which required him to repay the advance. However, he allowed Kaplan to keep his share of what had already been paid, or $60,000. While Kaplan and Vincent had exchanged draft versions of a collaboration agreement before their relationship devolved into an intractable dispute, the issue before the court was whether Vincent could prevent Kaplan from publishing any of the work they created. See, Kaplan v. Vincent, 937 F. Supp. 307 (SDNY 1996). Because they were friends, Kaplan "did not believe a formal agreement was necessary." If they had a formal agreement – as opposed to an oral understanding -- costly, time consuming and psychologically draining litigation would have been avoided.
Some of the deal points found in these agreements are quite simple and other are not. Below are the major elements of a typical ghostwriter or collaboration agreement. Whether you push and push, or settle for less, is between you and your attorney (or agent). But, don't lose sight of the fact a workable agreement, is often a reasonable agreement.
Responsibilities. Be specific. What must be delivered? What is the date it must delivered by? When you engage a writer to help you write a nonfiction book, generally, the writer will prepare a book proposal before completing the manuscript. A book proposal is a detailed overview of the book, it contains the author’s credentials and information about how the book can be marketed, plus one or two sample chapters. The proposal is the bait used to solicit interest from publishers. A nonfiction book proposal is usually written with the understanding that substantive work on the actual manuscript will not begin until there is an offer from a publisher.
In some circumstances, where one party is more knowledgeable in publishing matters, it may be appropriate to grant that person the exclusive right to negotiate with agents and publishers. If you are not the one shopping the proposal, you will either reserve the right of final approval of the publishing contract, or predicate approval on receiving some minimally acceptable payment.
Compensation. If one of the parties has greater immediate financial needs -- whether money is needed to pay their rent or for travel-related research -- the other party can defer all or part their compensation from the initial advance. As discussed above, it is customary for commercial publishers to advance a sum of future royalties to the authors when they sign a publishing agreement. It's been likened to a pay day loan. Once that money that has been recouped or refunded from future proceeds, the author who deferred can start getting paid, perhaps on more favorable terms than if they had not deferred payment. Deferring payment is also a way for the subject of a book to obtain the services of a more experienced writer without having to go out of pocket for a large sum.
Delivery dates in publishing are tied to publisher advances. A missed deadline can result in cancellation of a book contract. That, in turn, can trigger an author's obligation to repay their advance. Any agreement between collaborators should deal with the return of the portion of the advance paid to each collaborator.
If the subject gets cold feet and pulls out (assuming both writer and subject are parties to a third party publishing agreement), stipulating in the collaboration agreement that the writer does not have to repay their portion of the advance will take some of the sting out of a failed collaboration. In other types of creative divorces, it may be possible to separate out each author's contribution, and transfer those rights to the original contributor. These strategies overlap, and are not at the exclusion of each other.
Keep in mind, even those who do not qualify as joint authors for copyright purposes (for example, individuals who made an important – but not copyrightable -- contribution to the manuscript) may still share in the profits and control of a work through an appropriate contractual arrangement.
Credit. By some estimates, up to 70% of nonfiction books are ghostwritten. For example, it is widely believed that Theodore Sorenson wrote John F. Kennedy's Pulitzer Prize-winning book, "Profiles in Courage,” for which JFK took both the prize and sole author credit for. Clearly, a talented writer, who knows the ins and outs of publishing, can be a great asset in helping a public figure or an expert (but not an expert writer) go from idea, to book proposal to finished manuscript to published author.
Writing credits take various forms. The most common writing credits are: "by Subject and Writer" or "Subject with Writer" or "as told to Writer." By definition, if the book is ghostwritten, sole authorship credit for the work will be in the subject’s name only. In that case, the writer-for-hire must make peace with the fact the subject will receive sole authorship credit. Some might argue that ghostwriters should receive higher fees, because their names don’t appear on the finished book. In the case of an equal in credit collaboration agreement, the size and prominence of names, as well as the order of names on the cover and title page, needs to be negotiated and agreed to in writing.
Copyright. A work for hire is a term defined by statute. It can either be a work specially commissioned, or one created by a regular employee in the course of their employment. If you are the hiring party, it is especially important to clarify the nature of the writing services before you hire the person you wish to perform those services. Later may be too late if your objective is to own all of the rights. After-the-fact attempts to classify a work as "for hire" often fail, which is why an effective contract includes a back-up copyright assignment.
Death & Disability. In the event of either party's death, disability or an intractable disagreement, the agreement should have rules for hiring a new writing partner to complete the book. The agreement might specify that the authority to enter into contracts, and make creative decisions, vests solely in the subject's estate, or the writer (subject to a duty to account). If a work is likely to be revised, the agreement should include a clause that allows the remaining author to revise the work and reduce the compensation paid to the other's heirs or representatives if it becomes necessary to hire an outside writer. The agreement should also specify whether the person hired to complete the work is entitled to receive credit as an author.
Control of Business & Editorial Matters. Control of business affairs (e.g., who is responsible for seeking out and approving book deals?) and editorial matters (e.g., who has the authority to approve the final draft of the work or authorize revisions?) are critical issues. Unanimity may be required for certain decisions (e.g., approval of the initial publishing contract). If one party retains approval rights over the manuscript, the other party should try to impose reasonable limitations, such as a chance to correct the manuscript within (e.g., 30) days after receipt of the other party’s comments. Requiring the party with approval rights to provide detailed editorial reasons for any dissatisfaction, arguably, establishes objective criteria by which the writer can revise and have their contribution judged.
Representations & Warranties. From a ghostwriter, or "as told to" writer's perspective, the subject must provide representations (or promises) and warranties that they have or will: (i) provide access to pertinent documents, whether diaries or memorabilia, or business papers; (ii) provide reasonable access to themselves; (iii) use their best efforts to provide the writer with access to other individuals as may be required to write or finish the book; and (iv) cooperate in good faith with the writer in pursuing a publishing deal. Special attention should also be paid to the indemnity clause. An indemnity is a promise to reimburse the other party should they breach their warranties.
Reciprocal representations and warranties are the norm as well. They include: (i) no contractual commitments (e.g., a confidentiality agreement) exist that will interfere with the ability to perform their obligations; (ii) their contributions are original and will not violate any copyrights, proprietary rights, or rights of privacy, publicity, or constitute a libel against, or violate any other common law rights or other rights of any person or entity.
If any liability arises because of a breach of either party's’ representations or warranties, the non-breaching party should be reimbursed for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees), and damages paid out to others. If you are a "for hire" writer, meaning, the copyright vests in the party that hired you, the agreement should require the hiring party to make best efforts to have the publisher name you as an "additional insured" on the publisher's media liability policy. If a writer is relying on material provided them by the person who hired them, they should exclude this material from their own representations and warranties.
TIP. Since verifiable truth is a complete defense to libel (at least in the United States), your agreement should require that both parties retain copies of all recorded interviews, transcripts, books, notes, letters, emails and other research materials used in preparation of the book. If there is a lawsuit, you may be required to prove the truth of the statements that are published. (see §9.12.1, The Copyright Permission and Libel Handbook (John Wiley & Sons).
An effective contract might also include a non-disparagement clause. This is particularly important if you are a public figure, or represent a public figure.
You agree that you will not (nor will you cause or cooperate with others to) publicly criticize, ridicule, disparage or defame Subject, his family, his business associates, company, directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, or attorneys, with or through any written or oral statement or image, whether or not they are made anonymously or through the use of a pseudonym.
The subject's lawyer will also include a provision that requires the writer to agree to treat the ghostwriter agreement itself as confidential. One common error is not to include exceptions, such as sharing the agreement with your agent, attorney, tax preparer, or as compelled by a court or government agency (e.g., the IRS). In terms of remedies for breach, in addition to injunctive relief (necessary because "A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." -- Charles Spurgeon), the ghostwriter might be required to forego royalties, or repay amounts previously paid, but any such remedy will be subject to scrutiny by the courts and a possible finding of unenforceability.
The time to address these issues is before the actual creative process begins. Although collaborators might not feel comfortable discussing long-term financial and other issues, an effective agreement deals with these matters up front, rather than after the brickbats start flying.

Hartford, CT Electrical FAQ: Why Upgrade My Outdoor Lighting?
Did you recently drive up to the garage in your home during the evening and think your home looks dark and uninviting? That could be a sign that it’s time to upgrade your outdoor lighting.

This is also a great way to give your home a fresh look without sinking money into major refurbishments—and it can increase its value if you plan to put it on the market.
If you have an older lighting system, chances are it’s much less efficient at using energy than many of the current models. The technology of LED and HID lighting available today—some which run at 50% greater efficiency than older lights—means you can get better quality lighting and end up spending much less to power it.
The walkways, paths, decks, and patios around your home need to have decent lighting at night so it is safe for you and your guests to use them.

BOSTON – Junior righty Jordan Muchin (West Hartford) and senior righty Sam Kosterich (Stamford) combined on a six-hitter as the No. 2-seeded Eastern Connecticut State University baseball team advanced to the winners' bracket of the double-elimination 2018 Little East Conference Baseball Tournament with a 4-1 win over No. 5-seeded Plymouth State University Wednesday afternoon at Monan Park.
Thursday at 8 p.m. in a winners' bracket game, Eastern (23-14) faces No. 4 Rhode Island College (20-13), which defeated No. 3 University of Southern Maine, 7-3, Thursday morning in the completion of a game which was suspended after five innings Wednesday night due to fog. Plymouth (16-18) plays No. 6 UMass Dartmouth in a Thursday elimination game at 1 p.m. UMass Dartmouth lost its opener Wednesday to No. 1 UMass Boston, 7-3. At 4:30 Thursday, UMass Boston meets Southern Maine. The host Beacons will advance in the winners' bracket by eliminating Southern Maine, which would stay alive with the victory.
Wednesday, Muchin (5-4) allowed only five hits while fanning nine and walking three before leaving with a 3-1 lead after pitching seven innings, shutting out the Panthers over his final six innings. Kosterich closed it out for his second save of the season, allowing only one baserunner (on an infield hit) with three strikeouts over the final two innings.
In the game, Eastern pushed across a single run in four different innings, with three or more batters reaching base in succession in each of those innings.
Trailing 1-0, Eastern tied the game with a run on two hits in the third, moved ahead with another run in the fourth on four consecutive singles in the fourth, made it 3-1 with an unearned run in the sixth on two hits, a throwing error and sacrifice fly, and tacked on its final run in the seventh with three consecutive hits after there were two out.
Senior first baseman D.J. Scavone's (Auburn, MA) infield ground ball tied the game for Eastern in the third after the Warriors loaded the bases on a one-out single by junior centerfielder Alexander White (West Hartford), walk, and junior third baseman Alex Parkos' (Meriden) first-pitch single to center.
The turning point in the game came with the game tied in the top of the fourth when Plymouth loaded the bases with none out on two walks and a hit-and-run single before Muchin struck out the side on 12 pitches to leave the bags full. He threw eight straight strikes with the bases loaded to retire the first two batters and go ahead 0-2 on Cam Ruziak before retiring the junior catcher on a 2-2 swinging strikeout.
Following Muchin's Houdini act, the Warriors went ahead for good, 2-1, in the bottom of the fourth on four straight singles by freshman DH Jack Rich (Meriden), junior shortstop Dale Keller (Oxford), junior No. 9 hitter Ryan Hood (Arlington, MA) and White's run-scoring single to left.
Eastern added an insurance run in the sixth when Rich reached second on an infield single and throwing error, moved to third on Keller's single and came home on Hood's sacrifice fly to center and provided Kosterich with a three-run cushion with a final run in the seventh. With two out, Scavone, senior catcher Merlyn Herrera (La Yaquiza, DR) and freshman rightfielder Anthony Stigler (Mansfield) all singled, with Stigler's first career tournament hit to center chasing in Scavone from second.
The only right-handed batter in the Plymouth lineup able to pull the hard offerings of either Muchin or Kosterich was DH Geoff Kayo, who was robbed of a single on a diving line drive catch to his left by Parkos to end a 1-2-3 third inning and a routine hopper to Parkos for the second out of the fifth. As further proof of Plymouth's inability to pull the ball lay in the fact that Keller did not record a single assist for the first time in 37 starts at short this year (he touched the ball off the bat for the only time with two out in the eighth on an infield ground ball but did not attempt a throw on what was ruled an infield single) and that senior second baseman Mike Funaro (Northford) equaled his season-high with seven assists – all on routine balls. Funaro was also stationed perfectly to haul in a line drive by Kayo leading off the eighth against Kosterich.
Led by Rich – who reached four times with a double, two singles and walk in his first post-season game – all nine batters reached at least once, with eight contributing at least one hit.
Muchin improved to 3-0 lifetime with a 1.27 ERA against Plymouth, with 36 strikeouts and seven walks. He tossed a seven-inning no-hitter with 13 strikeouts in Eastern's home-opening win over Plymouth in 2017. Kosterich recorded his fourth save in five appearances over two LEC tournaments at Monan Park. In 2016, he appeared in all four of Eastern's tournament games and was credited with three saves when the Warriors won their ninth LEC title. | 2019-04-19T06:34:50 | http://gowarriorathletics.com/sports/bsb/2017-18/releases/20180509vpftxc |
WASHINGTON, May 17 (UPI) -- Two U.S. lawmakers announced legislation Thursday to punish Americans who renounce their citizenship to dodge taxes.
Democratic Sens. Charles Schumer of New York and Bob Casey Jr. of Pennsylvania unveiled the "Ex-Patriot Act" at a press conference Thursday, a response to Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, an American citizen born in Brazil who now resides in Singapore and who renounced his citizenship in September 2011 in a move that will save him an estimated $67 million to $100 million in U.S. taxes.
Schumer said Saverin's actions were "an outrage," adding Saverin "wants to de-friend the United States of America just to avoid paying taxes. We aren't going to let him get away with it." He said Saverin "turned his back on the country that welcomed him and kept him safe, educated him and helped him become a billionaire."
Casey called it "an insult to the American people" that "cries out for some basic justice."
The proposed bill, explained in a news release Thursday, requires a renounced citizens' U.S. assets to be taxed at 30 percent, double the usual rate, if he or she is determined to have a net worth of exceeding $2 million or an average tax liability of $148,000 over the last five years.
While the U.S. Constitution forbids Congress from passing laws to punish an individual, Schumer said his bill would apply to anyone in a situation similar to Saverin's, The Hill reported. | 2019-04-22T10:45:24 | https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2012/05/17/Senators-unveil-Ex-Patriot-Act-for-tax-dodgers/UPI-45021337288109/?spt=hts&or=2, |
Active investing is like betting on who will win the Super Bowl, while passive investing would be like owning the entire NFL, and thus collecting profits on the gross ticket and merchandise sales, regardless of which team wins each year.
Active investing means you (or a mutual fund manager or another investment advisor) are going to use an investment approach that typically involves research such as fundamental analysis, micro, and macroeconomic analysis and/or technical analysis, because you think picking investments in this way can deliver a better outcome than owning the market in its entirety.
Using the NFL analogy, you would study all the players and coaches, go to preseason training, and based on your research make an educated bet as to which teams would be on top for the year. Would you be willing to bet your money on your ability to choose correctly? An active investor or active strategy is doing just that.
With a passive investment approach, you would buy index funds and own the entire spectrum of available stocks and bonds. It would be like owning the NFL; not every team is going to win, but you don't care because you know some merchandise is bound to be sold each year. With a passive approach, you simply want to make money based on the collective outcome of all stocks and bonds pooled together.
When you look at mutual funds, an actively managed large-cap mutual fund will try to pick the best 100-200 stocks listed in the S&P 500 Index. A passive fund, or index fund, will own all 500 stocks that are listed in the S&P 500 Index with no attempt to pick and choose among them.
Each year academic studies are conducted to compare the returns of actively managed mutual funds to the returns of passively managed mutual funds. Studies show that in the aggregate over long periods actively managed funds do not generally deliver returns higher than their passive counterparts and the reason why has to do with fees.
Active funds usually incur higher costs. The fund manager must first garner additional returns to cover the costs before the investor would begin to see a performance that was higher than the comparable index fund.
Why does an active approach cost more? It takes time to do research, and actively managed funds tend to spend more money on overhead and staffing. Also, they have higher trading costs as they move in and out of stocks. If the index earns 10%, and the fund has 3% a year in costs, it must earn 13% just to have a net return equivalent to its index.
There is also a difference between passive investment funds and index funds. All index funds are a form of passive investing, but not all passively managed funds are index funds.
Most of the time the active vs. passive debate is focused on whether a mutual fund can outperform its index. For example, studies may look at how many large-cap funds outperform the S&P 500 Index. However, many funds and investment approaches are not restricted to a type of stock or bond.
For example, multi-cap funds may be able to own large or small cap stocks depending on what the research analysts think might offer the best performance. In this case, you might measure the long term results of such a fund against something like Vanguard's Total Stock Market Index Fund.
Additional confusion comes from the fact that investment advisors may use passive index funds, but use a tactical asset allocation approach to decide when the portfolio should own more or less of a particular asset class. In this way, passive mutual funds are being used within an active or semi-active approach overlay.
When you take this football analogy and apply it to investing, you look at the entire market of available stocks. A passive investor wants to own all the stocks, because they think as a whole, over long periods, capitalism works, and they are likely to receive higher returns from investing in the entire stock market than by trying to pick which individual stocks which will outperform the market as a whole.
The point of passive market approaches is to take advantage of something called the equity risk premium which says you should be compensated for taking on equity risk with higher returns.
Not a lot of trading is done with passive funds, so they have lower fees. They also have less capital gain distributions that will flow through to your tax return. If you invest using non-retirement accounts, this means a passive investment approach used consistently should reduce your ongoing tax bill.
If you want to combine active and passive approaches you may look at putting actively managed funds inside tax-sheltered accounts like IRAs while using a passive approach or a tax-managed fund for non-retirement accounts.
How many of your friends or coworkers have ever said that they employ a passive investing strategy? Probably very few but that's what they should be doing. Very few people can make money as an active investor, and for those who can, a small percentage of those people will beat the market over time.
Don't look at investing as a way to make money fast. The most successful investors are those that invest for the long term and understand that gains compounded over time with reasonable risk are how to build wealth. | 2019-04-20T12:43:43 | https://www.thebalance.com/actively-managed-investing-vs-index-funds-2388517 |
The ground where Patidar leader Hardik Patel was planning to sit on an indefinite fast from August 25 has been turned into a free parking plot. To reignite the Patidar reservation stir, Hardik and Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti had sought permission from Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation and the police to hold their protest at the plot near Sukan Crossroads at Nikol. With the Corporation turning the spot into a free parking space, it is unlikely that Hardik will be given permission to undertake his fast here.
Police sources had also claimed that Hardik is not likely to be granted permission in view of the tension that had gripped the State following the 2015 Maha Kranti Rally at GMDC ground. However, PAAS members announced that they will hold the fast at the spot. “If we do not get permission to hold fast at the plot, we will agitate on the road. Maintaining law and order is the responsibility of the minister,” said PAAS spokesperson Nikhil Savani.
To combat traffic menace, AMC has been creating parking spaces across the city. Interestingly, most of these plots are paid parking spaces. However, a board outside the Nikol plot invites citizens to park there for free. Residents claim the move is illogical as the area does not face traffic issues due to ample space all around.Congress councillor J D Patel, who lives in Nikol, said, “This area has houses and shops but there’s enough space to park vehicles without obstructing traffic.
Despite this, AMC has turned this ground into a parking lot.” PAAS convenor Jayesh Patel said, “We had sought permission for space for the protest almost 50 days ago. While the AMC did not give us a reply, it has suddenly put up a board at the plot announcing that it is now a parking lot.” Denying ulterior motive, AMC officials said they are not charging a parking fee at the plot as there was less demand for parking space here.
HC on Wednesday stayed a two-year sentence imposed on Hardik Patel after he filed an appeal before the HC. The court has admitted his plea and the matter will come up for hearing soon. Hardik and Patidar leaders Lalji Patel and AK Patel were sentenced to two years’ imprisonment and fined Rs 50,000 by a Visnagar court for vandalising former MLA Rushikesh Patel’s office in Visnagar town of Mehsana on July 23, 2015. They were later granted bail.
HC issued notices to state government in connection with a PIL seeking to review OBC reservation by constituting Gujarat State Backward Classes Commission. The PIL has been field by Umiya Parivar Visnagar and two other Patidar individuals. “As there is no permanent commission for Backward Classes for Gujarat through legislation, the entire reservation policy for the state needs to be reviewed ,” the PIL stated. “The government has to constitute the commission by passing a legislation as mandated by the SC in the judgement issued in the Indra Sawhney case. Many years have passed and the state has not introduced any legislation. Without it any recommendation of inclusion and exclusion by existing commission is void,” said Vishal Dave, counsel for the petitioners. | 2019-04-22T12:31:37 | https://ahmedabadmirror.indiatimes.com/ahmedabad/others/protest-plot-in-nikol-turns-into-parking-lot/articleshow/65329087.cms |
In a world driven by connection, people spend there days constantly surfing the web, whether it be because they are looking for something specific, or simply because they ran out of stuff to look at on their social media pages. Many people use social media purely for keeping in contact with old friends, staying updated with other peoples lives, etc. But some other people enjoy using social media as a form of researching products and services. | 2019-04-21T08:41:26 | http://www.theb2bonline.com/2013/08/11/ |
COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Ohio State synchronized swimming team tallied 100 points to outdistance Canisius and Keuka last Saturday at the Weeds Physical Arts Center in Keuka, N.Y. With the first-place finish, the Buckeyes improve their record to 9-0. The Scarlet and Gray will return to the road Saturday when it travels to Canton, Ohio, for the Walsh Invitational.
Ohio State won three of four events, placing first in trio, duo and the team competition.
The group of Barbara Nesbitt (Fr., Riverside, Calif./U.S. National Team), Leah Pinette (Jr., Bristol, Conn./New Canaan Aquianas) and Hannah Shively (Fr., Westerville, Ohio/Riverside Aquettes) notched an 89.500 for first place in trio. Classmates Ellen Hacker (Sr., Newark, Ohio/Columbus Coralinas), Carmen Moraes (So., Rio de Janeiro, Brazil/Tyvca Tenis Clube) and Caitlin Stewart (Fr., Huntington Beach, Calif./Riverside Aquettes) were second with a 86.667.
The pair of Hacker and Stewart finished with top honors in duet, scoring a 91.167. In exhibition action, the duo of Brooke Paul (Jr., Columbus, Ohio/Columbus Coralinas) and Jackie Mundy (Fr., Corona, Calif./Riverside Aquettes) tallied 86.833 points, which faired better than four duet routines.
In the solo event, Nesbitt earned 92.167 points to finish second behind Natalia Tarasova of Canisius (92.500). The Scarlet Team continued to dominate the team portion, as it recorded a 93.167, more than three points ahead of its nearest opponent. The team from Canisius finished second with a mark of 89.833, while the Ohio State Gray Team was third with an 88.333. | 2019-04-26T16:51:43 | https://ohiostatebuckeyes.com/synchronized-swimming-compiles-100-points-to-win-tri-meet/ |
Its 11.11pm on a Monday night as I begun typing this post.
The house is awfully quiet. Kris is not talking on the phone, pounding on the computer or watching mindless TV. He’s a sick puppy, recovering from a cold. I think it’s from too much working. Between meds and food, I literally forced him to sleep, sleep and sleep. While I appreciate how hard he’s working for the family, its a personal belief that there needs to be balance in life. You need to rest well, eat well and exercise regularly to perform at your personal best. So the silver lining to his cold, is that he is FORCED to rest.
I like taking care of him. When he’s sick, he’s no longer the booming deep voiced CEO with a zillion tasks, he’s my adorable little patient that I fuss/potter with great love!
Get well soon hubbabot! I love you.
I do like the silence tho, I dislike the sound of TV. Its so much easier to read and think when there is silence. That’s why I like late nights and early mornings the most, I feel like my mind is cleansed and refreshed from the silence.
Maybe its time to move to Alaska, or maybe not. I don’t think I can go any more North of NYC, too cold during winters.
Spring, please come with a vengeance already!
School has been fun. Life has been good.
I foresee more activities in the coming months!

T texted me the other day to arrange for a SKYPE date. She’s a big sweetie pie, I meet her in NIE 7+ years ago when we were both teacher trainees. We had the same crazy humor, laughed about silly things and became firm friends even after we left to teach in opposite ends of Singapore.
I moved to NYC a while back but she never fails to remember to arrange for a SKYPE date when the school holiday rolls around, much like when in Singapore when we would arrange for tea/lunch during holidays. She’s crazy busy with school, various family commitments and her german classes but I know I still hold a special place in her heart, which I am immensely grateful for. She went to Germany and even bought me a souvenir and air mailed it all the way to NYC, I suspect that it was due to all those long conversations about visiting Germany together some 7+ years ago. Good memories. I miss her.
I appreciate people like that, people who actually mean something to you in your life, no matter how far you’re physically apart. I must remember to take more time to treasure this connection.
Life has indeed changed to much. I wish for happiness and contentment for my friends.

Washington, DC – Greg Baer, President of The Clearing House Association (TCH), today testified before the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit. The hearing focused on the implementation of FinCEN’s customer due diligence (CDD) rule. In his testimony, Mr. Baer highlighted TCH’s support for the collection of beneficial ownership information but raised concerns with FinCEN’s rule as well as recent guidance regarding the implementation of the rule set to take effect next month.
However, Mr. Baer noted two concerns with the rule “first, the rule requires financial institutions to identify beneficial owners on a per-account basis and not a per-customer basis; and second, its preamble does not explicitly affirm FinCEN’s sole ultimate authority to determine CDD standards, and rather appears to leave the door open for further ad hoc interpretations by examiners.” He indicated that guidance recently released by FinCEN exacerbates these concerns.
More generally, Mr. Baer explained that CDD expectations could have real world consequences particularly for low- and moderate-income families and called for AML reform.
“Domestically, banks of all sizes report that current CDD requirements have increased the cost of opening new accounts, and may represent a majority of those costs. Of course, disproportionate and heightened account opening requirements make low-dollar accounts for low- to moderate-income people much more difficult to offer and price. While the connection is not immediately apparent, AML/CFT expense is clearly an obstacle to banking the unbanked, and a reason that check cashers and other forms of high-cost, unregulated finance continue to prosper. The problem, of course, is that bank examiners do not internalize those costs. And those in the government who do internalize those costs play no role in examining the performance of financial institutions,” Mr. Baer explained.
TCH has long held that the government should collect beneficial ownership information and that law enforcement and financial institutions, who are legally obligated to determine ownership in the exercise of their BSA/AML obligations, should have access to it. TCH is on the record in supporting bipartisan legislation in both the House and Senate to further combat the use of anonymous shell companies to finance criminal activity. | 2019-04-26T14:02:01 | https://www.theclearinghouse.org/research/articles/2018/04/20180426-baer-aml-reform-testimony |
New Delhi, Feb 4 (UNI) Union Commerce and Industry Minister Suresh Prabhu on Monday stressed the need for India and Monaco to deepen their cooperation to develop and eventually adopt hi-end technologies to address the growing environmental concerns.
India and Monaco can jointly work together in developing technologies to mitigate environmental concerns.
He also invited Monaco industries to invest in the Indian services sector which are expected to contribute 3 trillion dollars to India's GDP once it is a 5 trillion dollar economy in the next 5-6 years' time.
few and we want Monaco to take advantage of this," Mr Prabhu added.
Mr Gilles Tonelli, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, Monaco, highlighted the opportunities present in Monaco and invited the Indian companies to capitalise on the safe and sound industry-oriented policies framed by the government.

Oh hey, an Okina player! Complete with season gauge, sub-options, and season release! The main shot homes, the sub-options are non-penetrating lasers. The season release is a circle that grows and moves upwards.
You start with a level one season gauge. You gain season energy from shooting things, from grazing, and from clearing bullets with your season release (some from the bomb, but significantly less).
WARNING: An item script is run by the player to make the season items work. If a script contains an item with the ID 9999, it will override the season item.
1.1 - Updated Okina's homing. All shots are 100% guaranteed to reach their target, and if it's the last thing they'll do!! The player also now automatically disables season releases when bombs are disabled.
1.01 - Changed the season gauge to use the player's clip instead of the STG frame bounds, because some people feel the need to make those way bigger than necessary.
The sprite was assembled from DD's Yuyuko and Seiryuu sprites. His spritework is amazing! | 2019-04-26T05:48:52 | http://www.bulletforge.org/u/python/p/okina-matara-player |
Although I keep an extra drawer handy for those special occasion makeup items, but what you see above is everything I currently have in my makeup bag. I’ve included a list of the specific products below, but first I’d like to explain some of my day to day makeup choices.
Since this blog focuses on savvy shopping, you may be wondering why some of the items I’ve chosen are high end beauty items. Well, the answer is simple. It’s cheaper for me to splurge on one or two important items in order to save from having to spend money on repair items later on down the road. For example, cheap foundation makes me break out. Also, if I don’t splurge a little on my favorite setting spray (which lasts forever), then I find myself reapplying makeup multiple times throughout the day which will eventually waste more money than I spent.
As for my other products, I have a few quick tips and tricks for getting them for a good price. The only item excluded from my frugal purchases is the fabulous Kate Spade makeup bag which was actually a very generous birthday gift. I love it and, if you have the extra cash, I recommend this set.
Trick #1: Perfume samples from the counter at Nordstrom make a great replacement for the pricey full size versions. Also, they’re travel friendly and free!
Trick #4: I love the lip and brow products I have listed above. I use them all the time, but they too were gifts (thanks, Mom!). If you’re looking for something just as fabulous but slightly more affordable, I recommend checking out N.Y.X. brow set and ELF lipsticks. Both can be found at ULTA and, if you’re into coupons, check the Sunday paper for an ULTA cutout before you go.
Trick #5: Invest in an awesome foundation brush. The right foundation brush will make your foundation last so much longer just by blending and spreading the foundation more efficiently.
Trick #6: Check out MAC’s products at this site: http://www.cheapmacosmetics.com/. It’s the same site listed above and, although it doesn’t have everything, the MAC foundations are CRAZY cheap on it and are authentic. I recommend doing a bulk shopping trip with a friend just so that you can split the expensive shipping ($25). I got over $420 worth of makeup for just under $65 (and that’s including shipping).
So…I hope this helps you! Happy shopping, fashionable friends!
This site is AMAZING! I have actually ordered products from this site and they are all authentic. I have loved paying deeply discounted prices for the makeup that my sensitive skin craves. Enjoy! | 2019-04-20T22:21:24 | https://whengoodgirlsgobroke.com/tag/mac/ |
It was her innocence that brought him to his knees. It might have seemed that he was a powerful man, in control, but her softness, naivety, and openness were far more powerful than his seemingly worldly savoir faire. Was it a cruel twist of fate or poetic justice that it turned out that it was him, Albert, who was afraid of taking the plunge. He – the man of so much confidence and bravado – was the one who was afraid of leaping into the unknown.
It was so unexpected, it had taken him by surprise. | 2019-04-22T15:05:43 | https://goodpussybadpussy.com/tag/erotic-fiction-2/page/2/ |

I have to admit, when I first laid eyes on the behemoth that is Adam Sicinski’s MasterMind Matrix, I was a little overwhelmed. Ok, a lot overwhelmed. Reading through the blog entry describing the scope and depth of the information it contained didn’t really ease the sensation, and I began to feel as though I had just taken the red pill.
Not one to back away from a challenge, I decided on a different approach to my investigation, and started at the beginning – the IQ Matrix website – which in its own right is a wonderful rabbit hole of information and content. Here, I was able to learn a little more about mind maps, and what the big fuss is about these diagrammatic tools.
A mind map, according to IQ Matrix, is ‘a diagram or picture used to visually outline information’. Evidently, the use of mind maps dates back to the 3rd century, but they have only recently gained scientific merit for their profound ability to effectively transmit bulky or complex concepts in a simple, understandable manner.
Though Adam is not the first to create mind maps (perhaps originated by Porphyry of Tyros, a noted thinker of the 3rd century), he has definitely created the magnum opus of them all.
The MasterMind Matrix is a truly monumental map encompassing what seems to be every gem, technique or tool from every important work and author on the subjects of the human psyche, personal development, neuroscience, quantum and cognitive psychology, NLP and life coaching ever written.
The MasterMind Matrix is a truly monumental map encompassing what seems to be every gem, technique or tool from every important work and author on the subjects of the human psyche, personal development, neuroscience, quantum and cognitive psychology, NLP and life coaching ever written. Combined with his own significant experience as a life skills coach, Adam has somehow put all of this information and wisdom into one huge, crazy, colourful, complex mind map… AND managed to make it understandable and easy to navigate!
Now, I should mention that the IQ Matrix store offers a vast array of smaller mind maps on an exhaustive list of topics, all aimed at assisting the aspiring life coach (or those interested in self-coaching) in helping themselves or others understand the human condition and improve quality of life. But the MasterMind Matrix – the mother ship – had me in its spell.
Using the Matrix was an experience somewhere between reading a complex treasure map, and playing a very long game of Dungeons and Dragons. It was intimidating, and still a little overwhelming in its scope, but I felt drawn into ‘playing’ it. In fact, several of the many positive testimonials on the IQ Matrix website referred similarly to this feeling of wanting to go on some sort of epic journey of self-discovery, taking a new section of the map each day and exploring it before moving onto the next.
As the adventurer, one could choose to stay on the surface, skimming the map’s compelling (and often humorous) visuals for a sense of things at a glance, or dive deeper into the vast quantities of wisdom contained within each point, as needed or desired.
To ‘play’ with the smaller, single topic maps, and to gain the most benefit from them, Adam suggests following the actionable steps (the black lines within any given map) for just 15 minutes a week. Who knew self-growth and discovery could be so engaging? It felt like playing a board game for the psyche.
According to his bio, Adam spent many years collecting and collating the information that was to become the MasterMind Matrix, and it is this all-encompassing chart that forms the basis of each and every one of the over 300 individual mind maps currently being offered in the IQ Matrix e-commerce store.
Once in the store, one can browse by category (i.e. Career Success, Life Coaching, Goal Setting) and purchase bundles of related maps, or select single maps of particular interest (i.e. Coping with Grief, Being More Thoughtful, or Dealing with Bullies). Prices are very reasonable ($7.00 US for a single mind map; $30 to $100 US for bundles), and the electronic downloads are instant, and each fits on a single sheet of paper for ease of use, viewing and printing (with the exception of the MasterMind Matrix, for which I believe full-colour printed copies are available for purchase as a part of the MasterMind Matrix bundle).
Another of the many aspects of Adam and the IQ Matrix site that impressed me was the wealth of information he and his team offer free of charge. One can download over 30 free individual mind maps on a variety of self-growth topics, or browse the MasterMind Matrix Knowledge Base for an extensive glossary of the terms and concepts listed on the various maps. Once you’ve become a member, most bundle purchases also come with a lifetime of free updates and other bonus material.
Though my initial investigation and overview of the IQ Matrix material was relatively cursory, I very quickly got a sense of the vast potential it holds, both for personal growth and development, and as an aspiring life coach. There are individual maps for every conceivable life coaching scenario, as well as a comprehensive collection of maps designed to support the life coach in his or her coaching practice through development of necessary skills, life coaching approaches, how to structure a first coaching session, and even addressing life coaching mistakes.
Looking through the selection of maps and reading through Adam’s personal account of his struggles to start and build his own Life Coaching practice gave me such a feeling of possibility – finally, a clear and structured framework for coaching! The maps could easily be used as study and preparation guides for new coaches, or they could be printed and worked on directly with a client. Other maps could be easily accessed as new client issues emerged, for ongoing support in one’s coaching practice.
So, if you’re looking for the quintessential operating manual for being human, or seeking a structured framework for building and supporting your new Life Coaching practice, (or maybe just wanting to relive your Dungeons and Dragons days), I highly recommend visiting Adam Sicinski’s IQ Matrix site today. | 2019-04-20T22:16:49 | https://lifecoaching.press/reviews/iq-matrix-review/ |

Ian Wilcock has hit the heights by climbing all 284 of the Munro mountains in Scotland.
Since 1999 Ian and his mates have trekked north of the border twice a year to tick off each of the 3,000ft high mountains – conquering as many as seven in a day!
Cooper & Hall Director Ian said the achievement was a “relief”, adding: “When we started this I’d never heard of the Munros. But after completing 50, I thought ‘we can do all of these’.
Ian (far left) and his pals are pictured celebrating their final Munro on top of Beinn a’Bheithir – Sgorr Dhearg.
Ian has been recognised by the Munro Society as the 6,059th climber to ‘bag’ all the mountains.
In 2017 the intrepid explorers have no plans to put their feet up, with a long-distance walk scheduled for the autumn. | 2019-04-21T02:59:03 | http://www.cooperandhall.co.uk/newsfeed/newsfeed-ian-bags-mountain-feat/ |

Combine garlic and oil in a small saucepan and cook over low heat, shaking pan occasionally, until garlic is golden and very tender, 15–20 minutes. (Reduce heat if garlic is browning too quickly.) Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a cutting board and mash to a paste.
Add anchovies and walnuts to garlic oil and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until anchovies disintegrate and walnuts are golden brown, 5–8 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in garlic paste, and season with salt and pepper. Transfer bagna cauda to a shallow dish.
Squeeze 3 lemon halves into a bowl of cold water. Working one at a time, remove several layers of tough outer leaves from artichokes to reveal tender light-green leaves. Trim stem and peel with a vegetable peeler. Cut off top third from artichokes, then halve lengthwise and transfer to lemon water.
Cook artichokes in a large pot of boiling salted water until a knife slides easily through outer leaves, 5–8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a bowl of ice water and let sit until cold, about 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

Develop new strategies for using computers in the classroom Educators have talked about using information technology to improve teaching since the beginning of the modern computer movement but true integration remains an elusive goal—for most. Classroom Integration of Type II Uses of Technology in Education finds teachers who have managed to take advantage of the sophistication, power, and affordability of today’s technology to develop new and better strategies for learning, despite the absence of an effective institutional infrastructure. This unique book reviews effective Type II teaching applications and software used at all educational levels, including Lego/Logo technologies, idea technologies, graphics software, laptop computers, and handheld computers. Information technology in schools has failed to fulfill its considerable potential because without a widespread instructional support system, computers are generally poorly used and not integrated meaningfully into classroom activities. But some educators have still been able to implement Type II applications of information technology in their educational settings. Classroom Integration of Type II Uses of Technology in Education looks at their innovative methods of using computers to bring about more effective teaching—and learning. Classroom Integration of Type II Uses of Technology in Education examines: computer activities of grade 1-5 students using Lego/Logo technologies using Kid-Pix graphics software for creative activities the Technology Integration Assessment Instrument (TIAI) gender disparity in computer-oriented problem solving a three-tiered, idea-technology classification system pre-service teacher preparation assistive technology definitions, legislation, and implementation issues lesson plans and document techniques for laptop computers an action/instructional model for using handheld wireless computers in the classroom Classroom Integration of Type II Uses of Technology in Education is an invaluable resource for academics working in information technology and education, and for K-12 teachers and administrators at all levels.
Spark your students to actually want to learn through the creative application of technology! Type II applications in education make it possible to teach in new and more effective ways. Type II Uses of Technology in Education: Projects, Case Studies, and Software Applications clearly explains methods and strategies presently used by teachers to offer students a creative learning experience through the application of technology. Each chapter presents individual examples of how teachers have applied technology in schools and classrooms, illustrating through case studies, projects, and software applications how to effectively spark students’ interest and learning. Type II Uses of Technology in Education is the third in a series (Internet Applications of Type II Uses of Technology in Education and Classroom Integration of Type II Uses of Technology in Education, both from Haworth) that provides a clear view of the advantages—and challenges—involved in the use of technology to enhance and actively involve students in the learning process. The applications described and discussed at length here go beyond the mundane educational functions like grading or presenting drill and practice exercises to explore fresh ways of teaching and learning. Students can become involved and actually want to learn, all through the use of creative technology application. The book also includes tables and figures to enhance understanding of the material. Type II Uses of Technology in Education discusses: data collection, analysis, and communication in student research using pocket PCs and laptops the educational effect of using a learning object as a pedagogical model rather than simply being technological in nature examples of integrated Type II activities e-learning courses using interactive video, WebCT, and on-site discussion groups electronic discussion applications in a laptop university teacher education program challenges facing students using computers to enhance and express the extent of their learning information and communication technology (ICT) integration into schools—using three illustrative case studies forward planning needed to make the difficult change to technological application for learning a case study that used problem-based learning software with at-risk students using technology to reinforce visual learning strategies digital portfolio development as a Type II application interactive computer technology in art instruction on-demand help features for effective interactive learning experience Personal Educational Tools (PETs) Type II Uses of Technology in Education: Projects, Case Studies, and Software Applications provides numerous illustrations of technology learning in action and is perfect for educators and students in programs dealing with information technology in education, and for public school personnel with interests and responsibilities in using information technology in the classroom.
Give your students a powerful learning resource--the Internet! The Internet, though brimming with potential, is still vastly underused as a teaching resource. Internet Applications of Type II Uses of Technology in Education gives teachers new strategies for the Internet's use as a dynamic educational resource. Where Type I teaching applications technologically mimic the procedures previously used by teachers, Type II teaching applications involve innovative thinking in the use of technology in learning. Using Type II applications with the Internet, students are actively empowered to look to its use as an effective partner in their learning process. This book clearly reviews several Type II teaching applications and integrative software for use in all educational levels, including Internet videoconferencing, instant messages, WebQuests, and WebCT. Though now readily available, even those schools with the capability fail to effectively integrate computer and Internet technology into meaningful classroom activities. Using the Internet as a teaching and learning tool offers a flexibility that can be extremely effective. Internet Applications of Type II Uses of Technology in Education clearly shows how some creative educators have implemented inventive Type II applications in their teaching plans to give their students a more enriching learning experience. Internet Applications of Type II Uses of Technology in Education explores: critically evaluating Web site information how perceptions and behaviors change when Internet access becomes universally available Internet2 Videoconferencing integrating online communication into courses utilizing computer-mediated communication (CMC) tools structured online class discussions using Instant Messenger (IM) increasing vocabulary through software and online texts online learning in second-language acquisition (SLA) a project in New Zealand in which teachers and students learn Web design with the help of an external expert WebQuests as a Type II application WebCT as a Type II application achievement testing through the computer the Global Forum on School Leadership (GFSL) as a Type II application Internet Applications of Type II Uses of Technology in Education is a valuable, idea-generating resource for all academics working in information technology and education, and for K-12 teachers and administrators at all levels.
This book presents a rationale and teaching model for integrating computer technology into the curriculum.

I adore nothing more than when my friends share a growth moment. This particularly inspiring blurb came in the form of a 4am Facebook Status that showed up on my wall this morning.
I just wanted to share some honest words from a friend about setting goals and being honest with yourself.
Obviously, It blew up with love and support from myself included. I proceeded to congratulate hashtagging #Goals which she responded with the single most honest comment ever.
All it takes is hard work, gurlfrand… discipline is the hardest part. Always thinking bout dat healthy body but also dat pizza…. I think about pizza everyday, not lying..
After my post yesterday, some people have told me I should turn my Instagram into a health/fitness related page… Y’all, I love you but I am not even going to pretend that I am all about either of those things. As you saw I went on a cruise, I ate pizza every single day, and not in small quantities-we’re talking 4-5 pieces a day. Also, I can count on my two hands how many times I’ve hit pause on Netflix in a month. I will gladly tell anyone who asks how I lost my weight, but this girl will not be making a health page. Maybe something more important, like a pizza page.
Honestly, this was so refreshing for me. I am that person that dives head first into every idea, obsesses over it, and is devastated when I realize it just wasn’t meant to be. Personally, I think Kass would be an incredible heath inspiration. But first of all, she was honest. I need to be more like that.
I don’t need to become a Youtube Star. I don’t need to open an Etsy shop. I don’t need to become a Yogi. I just need to be myself. I just need to take my ambitions day by day and celebrate the little victories.
I don’t want people thinking because I lost weight that I’m all healthy now and believe only certain things should be eaten and what-not. Honey, I was raised in the south. You don’t eat healthy here. I also, don’t want people thinking because of how I look, that’s the way I believe everyone should look. That was my biggest fear going into this, posting how I looked in fear of indirectly or accidentally criticizing someone else.
Someone remind me to be this honest and grounded. And Real. Kass, Thank you for reminding me not to take life too seriously. | 2019-04-20T10:50:07 | https://takenbythelapels.wordpress.com/category/live/inspire/ |

JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – TSX-and JSE-listed Rockwell Diamonds is moving to contract mining at its Klipdam mine, near Kimberley, in a bid to lower operating cost and improve the operation’s overall performance.
The company concluded a three-year contract mining agreement with CML Operations and said it had entered into a sale agreement to sell Klipdam’s earthmoving fleet at book value over two years.
Rockwell would also make minor adjustments to the processing plant, but said the overall monthly capacity of the mine would remain unchanged at 100 000 m, providing sufficient resource for the contract-mining term.
CEO James Campbell said the appointment of a contract miner represented a “step change” in Rockwell’s operating model and that it would adopt a similar approach at the Saxendrift Hill mine, which was currently under construction.
The company said that the changeover would entail retrenchments, but added that the contract miner would need local skills.
Rockwell said it decided to shift to contract mining at Klipdam, as high unit costs and poor earthmoving and plant availabilities continued to negatively impact on the mine’s financial performance.
Klipdam, which had a three-year mine life left, had recently produced sporadic monthly positive cash flows, but its cumulative loss-making performance continued to negatively impact on the group’s overall performance.
Meanwhile, Rockwell also announced the resignation of COO Michael Hunt, effective from October 28.
The company said it did not plan to replace Hunt in the short term and that the mine managers and senior project manager would report directly Campbell, with the balance of the COO’s role being allocated among Rockwell’s executive management team. | 2019-04-25T13:04:09 | https://www.miningweekly.com/article/rockwell-shifts-to-contract-mining-at-klipdam-2012-10-31 |
I like to watch Child of our Time, given that the 25 kids it is following were all born within days of Charlotte. I generally like the psychological tests and know instinctively whether or not Lots would have conformed to the general outcomes. When they were analysing how the kids conformed along gender lines last week, I just knew Charlotte, if left to her own devices, had she been chosen for the study, would not have come out the changing room in the mini-adult pink sparkly dress all the other girls chose, for example.
This week was interesting on many levels. It followed 24 hours in all 25 8 year old kids' lives. The statistics it gave were dreadful. I felt more and more smug as the programme went on because I realized I was actually doing better than most of the families.
The first surprising statistic was that only 3 of 25 kids ever sat at a table with the rest of their family for an evening meal. The majority ate quick foods in front of the TV on the couch. In some families the mum ate at a table with the kids while the dad came home too late. The last and also popular scenario was one where the kids were fed and sent to bed before the adults even started to think about their meal. Twenty two of the twenty five kids had no concept of a family meal. That in itself might not seem important but the dinner table is a place where families talk about their day. It is a place of communication. Communication between partners but also as your kids get older and want to spend more time with friends or in front TV, a small chance for you to have relaxed communication with your child. Having spent years married to a man who came home and checked the microwave after we'd eaten every night, I set that as one of the rules for my new life. We'd have a meal at the table every night at about the same time and it would only be moved or cancelled in exceptional circumstances. There are 2 more rules in my house: no toys at the table, no texting at the table. This may annoy the kids but it means the family meal is just that - a family meal. I sat gobsmacked watching kids play, read, text, even play play station while eating alone. They did everything but eat and talk.
The next astounding statistic was the number of hours kids watched TV or played PS2 (and the likes). Ask my kids, I am the first to rant constantly that they are turning into zombies, that the TV has to go off and I jump up and down like an irate lunatic. So I was worse than horrified to find out my kids actually were at the low end of the TV hours scale. There were kids watching 9 hours in a row on there!
Next, but no surprise to me were the hot house kids, as I like to refer to them. I see them at my kids' school every day. I mean the kids that are enrolled in so many afterschool activities that they don't actually get a minute to draw a breath. They run from school to football, to piano, to chess, to karate. They have to buy a takeaway and eat it in the car as they don't actually get home till bedtime and their parents are always moaning their kids can't fit in homework. And the parents, of course, never see each other! I sat in horror watching a crazy mother driving her kid to tennis lessons 4 times a week over an hour's drive from home, returning all 4 nights at bedtime. The 8 year old cried a tantrumed in such a dangerous manner beside her in the car from exhaustion, that I genuinely think she should have stopped driving as she couldn't possibly have been concentrating on the road. What benefit is this regime to an 8 year old? I have nothing against the odd afterschool activity - My 2 big ones have tried several: football, martial arts, badminton, swimming, tennis - but an hour, 2 at most a week, never 4pm-8pm every night. Let them have time to relax, play, use their imagination!
Finally, and worst of all I sat with my mouth hanging open as the parents discussed the freedom they allowed their kids. I thought back to 8 - I was allowed to walk to school, walk to a friend's house, walk from my granny's to the corner shop and buy Saturday breakfast - rolls, eggs, juice and a few added extras. I could play in the field behind my house, in neighbours' gardens and generally wander about my estate. By 9 I was cycling to school on the road with no helmet! I can't remember the exact numbers but I know only 1 child in this study was granted the freedom I had at that age. Two, perhaps three more were allowed to play outside their garden but within sight of their parents. They weren't allowed to walk to school either. The most shocking was the fact that many of the kids weren't allowed in their own garden, none were allowed to the park. This wasn't because of traffic levels, which are much worse since we were kids but because people actually believed kids were so likely to be kidnapped or abducted that they wouldn't allow them out. Time and time again parents said they preferred their kids alone upstairs on a PS2 because they knew where they were! Don't people realize that abductions hit the headlines because they are uncommon, not because they are common? How are these kids, caged till 16, going to cope when they are thrown out into the world? When they are forced to leave home to go the uni or whatever, before they have even learned to cross the road alone. What damage are these people inflicting on their kids?
I let my kids cross the road and go shopping alone. Charlotte can go see granny just as Little red riding hood did many moons ago. They can go play football out of my sight in the field. Lots is allowed to go cycling up and down the pavements round the corner in neighbouring streets away from my line of vision. I have given them mobile phones so I can contact them. I am not 100% happy when they are out of my sight, no parent is, but I am 100% sure I am better preparing them for adulthood than by locking them in a bedroom alone. What will these kids remember of their childhoods? What life skills will they lack? How will they know how to parent themselves?
Are you trying to say something here about the wean's granny with this Little Red Riding Hood reference ??????
I don't know if it's just another cultural difference, but that's absolutely not the picture I get, when I look out the window. The kids in our street are playing in the yards and on the street. Last week they were using some sort of hydraulic device to make rockets. The went pretty high! And they race their bikes, scooters and [sæbekassebiler] down the street and generally having a lot of fun together. I'm so pleased, that Ellen is going to grow up a place like this. | 2019-04-24T20:10:01 | http://www.phylsblog.com/2008/05/caged-generation.html |

The Chicken or the Egg; or is it just chickens coming home to roost?
According to the Wall Street Journal, Some of the world’s top hedge-fund managers are worried.
They say central bank bond buying programmes that are pumping trillions of dollars into global markets will end badly. The European Central Bank said on Thursday it would extend its asset purchase programme to the end of next year, buying bonds at a reduced rate. But prominent managers have expressed doubts about the endgame for QE.

BONUS! Get the Ayer’s Cliff floor plan the Roberson’s used in designing their home.
A custom home designer by trade, it’s no surprise Ian Robertson has a knack for seeing the potential in blank spaces. Creating floor plans for beautiful, functional homes from nothing more than an empty canvas and a collection of ideas is his thing.
But his honed sense of vision doesn’t just kick in at the drafting table. It works on pieces of overgrown land, too.
After searching for property on which to build a family cottage for about two years, Ian and his wife, Elaine, came across an neglected lot with a dilapidated shack on the shores of Haliburton Lake. Something clicked.
The collaboration between Ian and the design team was seamless.
For example, the design team helped Ian pare down the size of the cottage without losing usable space and suggested using conventional framing rather than roof trusses. In the end, the final design is a hybrid with a main log structure and a wood frame with siding above.
Throughout the home, open spaces reign—thanks to the easy-flowing floor plan and an abundance of vaulted ceilings. The logs give the home its rustic vibe while contemporary touches include beams wrapped with trim, drywall accents and black window trim, cabinetry, and light fixtures.
Equal parts rustic and refined, the cottage was the perfect retreat for the Robertsons. After moving in on Canada Day, the couple and their kids spent the rest of the summer reconnecting. Only in the early morning hours, before the sunshine rose over the trees and began to spread across the lake, was all quiet. Soon, the tunes of everything from The Tragically Hip to Taylor Swift filled the air — the sign the fun, and the bustle, was about to begin.
On a typical day, the family would gather for a relaxing breakfast then head outdoors to play frisbee on the lawn, swim from the dock, and explore the lake via paddle board or kayak. In the evening, everyone came together for dinner and a little friendly competition. “Cards and monopoly are favorites around here,” says Ian.
At summer’s end, on a whim, Ian posted the home for sale online. “We just wanted to check the status of the market,” he says. Turns out, the person who came across the listing immediately, Peter Vandendeool, has the same knack as Ian Robertson for seeing the potential of a place. Peter could envision his family—grown children and grandchildren—spending days lounging in the sun and playing in the water.
The fact the home was Confederation built — “He was aware of Confederation’s reputation of quality,” says Ian — and the fact the cottage was turn-key sealed the deal for Peter. They closed the sale less than a year after the home was completed. | 2019-04-22T01:19:57 | https://www.confederationloghomes.com/blog/log-home-housing-experts/ |
