The Swiss Verein – Time for a Closer LookPrint By Sean Larkan | Jul 30, 2017 This arose through the problems experienced by King & Wood Mallesons (KWM), a Swiss Verein (SV), and its relatively young European operation, also a SV, which resulted in KWM EUME being dissolved and going into formal administration. This was covered quite extensively in a recent Lexpert article to which three Edge principals contributed comment: http://www.lexpert.ca/article/swiss-miss/ There are a number of different possible causes for the collapse of KWM EUME: Was it due to the verein structure? Or poor choice of target firm in Europe? Inadequate leadership and management of the new expanded structure? Insufficient time and effort put into building trusted and respected relationships and collaboration between the old and new merger partners? It was probably a combination of all of them. A sad end to a potentially powerful merger, the KWM EUME collapse has provided a timely wake-up call to all other SVs to review and stress-test their own structures. More importantly, they should carefully consider the leadership and management of their SV, as well as the cultural and other factors that provide the necessary glue between member firms. It is also timely to revisit some of the attractions but also some of the potential downsides of this popular structure. The Swiss Verein: an attractive alternative? - Firms in different jurisdictions, often with different structures, can present themselves internationally as a single entity without complying with all the regulations and tax codes of each country in which the SV functions. For instance, an SV can help firms to avoid the need to deal with differing regulations around the legal qualifications of law-firm owners, and the necessity of member firms or their members to file multiple tax returns; - Arguably the greatest attraction for merging firms is that financial matters (unless agreed otherwise) largely stay within each jurisdiction, including liabilities for financial debt, contributions to capital, sharing profits and the like. This is obviously attractive to sceptical partners in a larger, more dominant and successful firm tying up with a smaller firm that earns lower profits per partner. It also avoids issues around exchange rates, differences or fluctuations in profitability, charge-out rates and partner-compensation schemes. So, the SV can be attractive where the parties do not feel that financial merger is an unnecessary step too far; - SVs work well for firms in different jurisdictions that feel they want something more than an alliance (which are notoriously challenging to ‘make work’), so that they can exert some measure of control – e.g., around branding and other agreed standards – but are nervous about a full financial merger (with all the attendant challenges and concerns a merger brings with it); - Vereins have proven to be flexible structures, with each verein reflecting its own distinctive characteristics and personalities. Some successful vereins give the appearance of financially integrated entities, while others look no different from looser alliances or networks; - Indicative of this flexibility, an SV can function between firms within a country (e.g., in major centres) or between firms in multiple countries; - Structurally, legally and procedurally, the SV structure can be somewhat easier to unravel than a full financial merger, should this unfortunate need arise; - The SV is also ‘tried and tested’ in various international jurisdictions, both in the accounting world (e.g., the ‘big four’, albeit they have moved on to other structures) and legal services, where it has been the structure of choice for many mergers. This will often be enough to put querying partners’ minds at rest. The Lexpert article points out that over 30% of the top revenue-producing firms are vereins; - Subject to the caveats mentioned elsewhere, SVs are somewhat less complex to manage. For instance, one or other member firm is not subjected to the upheaval of changing all systems and processes to comply with a centralised one, although of course not changing can also create challenges; - In large measure, the SV can accommodate different cultural, political and economic issues in each jurisdiction without them impacting other member firms; - Still on the question of management, provided ‘other firms’ in the arrangement are well led and managed, other firms in the SV do not have to put as much time and investment into detailed management of others in other jurisdictions. However, this also can be a danger and can result in issues not surfacing in time (see below); - Depending on what they may choose to do from the point of view of effectiveness and consistency, firms can largely leave current management structures in place in each jurisdiction; - Members of SVs do not share commercial or professional liability for the debts or actions of other members (however, pre-merger due diligence on this is advised); - SVs can reap real benefits from well-managed and led business, and brand integration – which can prove a profitable alternative to full financial integration; - The verein structure can be a safe, speedy and less complex stepping stone to later financial or alternative types of closer integration; - Typically one or other of the merging entities does certain things really well or has implemented leading-edge systems in certain areas – clever leadership, flexible attitudes, good management and sharing can result in the benefits being moved around for the benefit of all; - SVs can give comfort to partners (who ultimately vote on such matters) and get them ‘across the line’ in regard to issues which typically worry them: - What if they don’t perform to our level?’; - ‘Will we ever have to bail them out?’; - ‘We won’t have to do multiple tax returns’; - ‘It doe ‘ sn’t look like it will be much hassle for me – I can get on with my work and servicing my clients but there may in fact be some upsides with referrals to me’; - ‘There will be a limit on inter-firm liability’; - ‘We won’t get bogged down in their regulatory issues’; - ‘So, in light of the above, Why not?.’ Swiss Vereins: a cautionary note - The relatively less tortuous path to merger provided via the SV structure, and the structure’s characteristics, sometimes causes member firms to overlook some fundamental pre-merger steps, like undertaking stringent due diligence. We advocate that such due diligence should be no different to a traditional merger; - The passion and excitement with which firms enter into merger discussions and negotiations, coupled with the flexibility and other advantages of the verein structure, can paper over the complexities and uncertainties of international legal practice. This can be exacerbated by different styles and cultures brought to bear to consider them; - The verein structure can mean that issues that arise in one member firm, which may even have the potential to damage the overall firm, can sometimes, at least initially, be ‘left to the troubled firm to sort out’. This is assuming the other member firms are even aware of them. This can prove disastrous, as we have seen recently; - Depending on how they are structured and run, SVs can be fairly loose affiliations, not far removed from law firm networks, and such networks are notoriously difficult vehicles through which to extract full potential. This is mainly due to a lack of buy-in from key partners who want any upside, but don’t want the ‘hassle’ or time investment in getting to know or working with the other entity; - SV advantages (e.g., the independence of member firms) can also be disadvantageous, causing difficulties in achieving consistency in standards, systems, cultures, structures, contributions and brand understanding and support; - The so-called cultural glue and loyalty that sometimes keeps mobile partners in an integrated firm is not usually present to the same extent in a SV, particularly where financial and other structural issues arise; - Vereins don’t necessarily bring about shared culture, the sharing of clients or knowledge, nor standardised practices. Because of the lack of financial integration and the type of focus and ‘glue’ this brings with it, the SV requires exceptional leadership, management that includes the time and commitment to provide active and ongoing involvement from both sides, coupled with some alignment of cultures. This can be hard to come by; - Vereins can hide real issues in member firms. A startling fact that emerged out of the KWM EUME fall-out was that the London office had expended $47m on refurbishing its office, something partners in neither member firm seemed aware of; - Unless they are exceptionally well managed, vereins will struggle to match financially integrated entities in regard to seamless service and technical standards, which are important to international clients; - Bearing in mind that strategy should determine the correct structure for any firm, firms can find that they outgrow the SV structure (but this can be an advantage, in that it can be a transitional step to full financial integration); - Problems can arise in less powerful member firms where, despite the verein structure, more powerful members exert cultural and strategic pressures (e.g., on particular industry sectors or practice areas) on the weaker members; - Because of the lack of profit-sharing, there is not always as strong an incentive for member firms to collaborate and share expertise or clients. This seemed to be a factor at the heart of the KWM EUME break-down; - An oft-overlooked underpinning for strong international brands is seamless operational and business integration between branded entities in different jurisdictions. This is particularly difficult to bring about in law firm vereins, where locally entrenched views around such matters can get in the way, and indeed member firms are sometimes encouraged to continue to do things ‘their way’. Instead of addressing differences and building seamless services, these issues can harden differences. As a result brands suffer. - While there are clear differences between mergers based on Swiss Vereins and those involving financial integration, there are important areas of commonality that centre, for instance, around brand and people, key assets of all firms. - In both structures organisational, employment and individual brands are influential on and directly impacted by the outcomes, good or bad, of the outflow of these arrangements. The KWM EUME meltdown in Europe and Slater & Gordon’s problems are two recent examples. - Similar challenges arise in relation to people in both structures – it matters not that a structure is a SV as it is still possible, in fact it may be more likely, to lose good people if those people ‘don’t like what they see or experience’, financial instability is in question, extraordinary capital contributions are sought, colleagues get head-hunted away, the firm is ‘re-structured’ and colleagues are let go, the style of leadership or management is inappropriate or is being imposed by the ‘global entity’; - A Swiss Verein can be a good stepping-stone to a full financial merger, and this may even be contemplated in early strategy documentation. Having practiced under the same brand for a couple of years with committed and effective management and leadership, the firms could transition to a more fully integrated model with a deeper understanding of the relative strengths and weaknesses of each business and a clearer understanding of legal and regulatory issues; - Because a merger is based on a verein structure, it does not mean it cannot and will not result in integrated business functions, systems and procedures, nor encourage collaboration. There are many successful vereins where these have been achieved; - Each firm involved in a Swiss Verein will need to contribute equitably to the international management of the merged entity. This is a big, significant investment as it should involve high calibre personnel. This could involve the appointment in each office of an international managing partner, or designated partners of each entity tasked to achieve cultural alignment, collaboration and communication. The choice of personnel is important, as is providing them with enough budget relief to get the job done. In our experience, this is a key area where such arrangements can stumble. Wherever possible, early integration of practice management systems, partner structural matters and expectations and client management protocols will be an advantage, and should be prioritised; - We recommend to clients that a brand strategy be developed for the merged entity and that all merger partners and their staff understand this. This ensures understanding of the brand implications of the merger and how each entity can contribute to strengthening and using the brand. It is also important that parties to the SV have an appreciation of the risk to brand value and strength of a failed merger. Even a supposedly bullet-proof brand like KWM can suffer; - There is invariably a lot of passion and excitement about putting such merger deals together, but firms often do not take proper account of the hard work and time commitment required after the honeymoon period is over. This is particularly so in the case of a SV where each entity is more or less expected to run its own operation; - It’s sensible for each firm to develop a short-form business strategy outlining its strategic key business objectives in further developing its international presence, and how these verein arrangements and the designated strategies will assist them to achieve these objectives. This usually focuses the collective minds of the firms and helps identify key issues at an early stage; - Notwithstanding the presumed protections provided by the Swiss Verein structure, we counsel clients to obtain legal advice to ensure the structure is tax effective to ensure partners are only taxed in their own jurisdictions; - The wheels can quickly come off the merger cart if things do not go as planned. Exits of key partners and key practice groups impact organisational brand and employment brands and the underlying trust that should support them. Firms can find themselves with a remaining stock of lower performers which in turn makes it harder to attract top performers – a classic vicious circle quickly develops and the sharks circle to pick up the choicest morsels; - Advice should be sought to ensure the structure provides for regulatory clarity; e.g., the common issue that arises in some jurisdictions that only practitioners from that jurisdiction can be partners in local firms. It is also worthwhile considering limiting cross-border liability of partners to ensure legal problems in one country do not impact the merged group; - Some jurisdictions have particular requirements which may be peculiar to them, such as diversity requirements – these need to be unearthed in a due diligence; - The merged entity must not be allowed to become simply a loose association of independently run law firms operating under an umbrella brand. This depends to a great extent on the calibre and style of leadership and management of each party to the merger, and this determines success or failure. Swiss Vereins are very attractive alternative structures to financial mergers in some circumstances, but they require exceptionally good leadership and management from each entity, and the building of a strong merged entity culture of trust and collaboration to ensure they work well. This should be coupled with a genuine interest and committed effort by these key players to ensure the success, well-being and strengthening of their fellow merger partners. In essence, firms must look beyond structure when weighing up and implementing such mergers. A spokesperson from KWM’s Australian office in Sydney reiterated that “There is no direct impact to the firm here”.

From Our Editors Eight core musicians. Multiple special guests. Seemingly countless legendary composers. This is Ensemble Prisme, a chamber music ensemble that pays homage to works ranging from the Baroque to the contemporary. Their concerts each focus on a particular theme, perhaps spotlighting Brahms' influence on fellow composers, or sharing music from Mozart's little-known dubstep period. Ensemble Prisme is frequently joined by guest artists as well, including opera singers and musicians.

Educational Workers Connect Wishes Final Year SHS Students Success According to Lydia Sweatt," Successful people do not become that way overnight. What people see at a glance ie happiness, wealth, a great career etc is the result of hard work and hustle over time". The Educational Workers Connect whose ultimate goal is to advocate and sustain quality education across the country deems it appropriate and timely to extend our warmest goodwill message to our brothers and sisters who are in their final year and commencing their WASSCE this Monday with the first core paper, ie Integrated Science. We are very much gladdened that, at long last, they get to demonstrate to the whole world what they are made of. We, therefore, wish to use this opportunity to extend our goodwill message to them and to encourage them to go all out and pass their exams. We are very much aware of the stress, psychological trauma and the uncomfortable environment in which they find themselves before writing this exam. We are however encouraged that, in spite of all these challenges, many of them have remained resolute, focussed and have navigated through the turbulent situations and are poised to pass their exams. We wish to remind them that, exams are perfect occasions for showcasing their talents and determination. It is also not only a test of academic knowledge, it is a test of their calmness, stability and courage. Therefore, we urge them to remain calm, stable and confident in the exams hall and leave the rest to our Almighty God to take care of. Most importantly, we wish to caution them to stay away from all forms of exam malpractices ie, copying from friends in the exams hall, sending foreign materials popularly called "apor" into the halls, depending on questions from wherever before the exams and copying from friends in the exam halls. This is very crucial to us because, we recognise the fact all their hard works, sacrifices and toils over the years will come to not if they are caught indulging themselves in any of the unacceptable practices mentioned above. They must know that,if they engage in those negative acts, it can potentially jeopardize their future even as they hope to progress in life. It can also erase all the gains they might have made throughout their stay on campus. This we want our final year students to remember and be guided throughout the writing of the exams. We, therefore, urge them to once again remain confident of themselves and reproduce what they were taught and what they studied. Of course, our wishes cannot be complete without appreciating and acknowledging the enormous contributions made by our gallant and dedicated teachers across the country who have put their lives on the line in this COVID-19 situation all with the view to adequately preparing these students to be able to do well in their exams. God bless and reward you bountifully. We end our goodwill message to our students with one famous, inspirational and motivational quote that" Do not stress, do your best, forget the rest!" We implore our students to always remember this and remain calm, confident, stable and pray for God to crown all their efforts with emphatic success. Once again, our brothers and sisters, stay away from the exam malpractices. God bless you and be assured of success. Daniel Yao Agbezudor

The three Academies work together as the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to provide independent, objective analysis and advice to the nation and conduct other activities to solve complex problems and inform public policy decisions. The National Academies also encourage education and research, recognize outstanding contributions to knowledge, and increase public understanding in matters of science, engineering, and medicine. Learn more about the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine at www.nationalacademies.org. This page intentionally left blank. Preface and Acknowledgments From 2010 to 2016, more than 700 American and Iranian scientists, engineers, and health specialists participated in the cooperative activities sponsored by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and their partners in the United States and Iran that are discussed in this report. These specialists deserve many accolades for their joint efforts to contribute to and document numerous advances in science, technology, and health and to provide fresh perspectives for addressing important challenges in a variety of fields of global interest. Despite the political acrimony and constraints on international communication that have separated the United States and Iran in recent years, the interest in participating in joint efforts has been steady. At the same time, the interest in the National Academies’ programs of the dozens of universities, research centers, and other organizations in the two countries that are the home institutions of the program participants has been essential for ensuring the success of activities carried out in the United States, Iran, and other countries. In Washington, D.C., the Department of State (the department) has been an essential supporter of the National Academies’ program. The department has been readily available to provide guidance concerning the uncertain political landscape and the ever-tightening legal constraints on cooperation. It has helped develop innovative steps that could be taken to ensure compliance with the increasing reach of economic sanctions. Also, the nongovernmental organization World Learning, a long-time partner of the department, has played an important role in facilitating scientist-to-scientist exchanges. As has been the case since the inception of the program of cooperation involving Iranian and American colleagues in 2000, the leadership of the National Academies has provided strong support and consistent funding to ensure that the program would continue despite political and administrative barriers to implementation. At the same time, colleagues from the University of Arizona with decades of experience in promoting U.S.-Iranian collaboration, together with foreign policy experts in Washington, have contributed invaluable assistance to the National Academies’ staff to improve awareness of the historical context and of up-to-date developments in Iran that have been important in developing and implementing appropriate programs. For many years, the Richard Lounsbery Foundation has provided financial support for a variety of U.S.-Iran collaborative activities in the United States and abroad. During the time period under consideration, the Fondation des Treilles in Paris, France, generously opened the doors of its conference center in Tourtour to welcome three groups of specialists from the United States, France, and Iran for week-long retreats. In the United States, the University of California at Irvine has offered hospitality for a number of workshops held at the National Academies’ conference center on the edge of the university campus. All the while, a number of Iranian organizations have provided funding and made arrangements for a variety of collaborative activities in Iran. This report has been reviewed in draft form by individuals chosen for their diverse perspectives and technical expertise. The purpose of this independent review is to provide candid and critical comments that will assist the National Academies in making each published report as sound as possible and to ensure that it meets the institutional standards for quality, objectivity, evidence, and responsiveness to the study charge. The review comments and draft manuscript remain confidential to protect the integrity of the deliberative process. We thank the following individuals for their review of this report: Peter Agre, Johns Hopkins University; Najmedin Meshkati, University of Southern California; Barbara Slavin, Atlantic Council; Soroosh Sorooshian, University of California, Irvine; and James Timbie, Stanford University. Although the reviewers listed above provided many constructive comments and suggestions, they were not asked to endorse the conclusions or recommendations of this report nor did they see the final draft before its release. The review of this report was overseen by Michael Clegg, University of California, Irvine. He was responsible for making certain that an independent examination of this report was carried out in accordance with the standards of the National Academies and that all review comments were carefully considered. Responsibility for the final content rests entirely with the author and the National Academies. This page intentionally left blank.

Pedro Conrade, Neon's CEO, says that the Series A investment will support the company's product expansion, investment in technology and innovation on Neon's leading customer experience. "We have just launched our credit card, and will have some exciting news to share later in the year about additional products and services in the pipeline. This funding shows the investors' confidence in our team, the market opportunity, and in our mission. It will allow us to keep moving at a fast pace while cultivating the creativity and technology to build a leading financial services company in Brazil." As part of the investment agreement, Neon Pagamentos SA transferred its controlling interest to a holding company in the United Kingdom.

Many of my clients expect that I’ll divulge the secrets of the ideal diet but while I have been taught in over 100 dietary theories through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition (IIN) there is so much more that encompasses our relationship with food. The truth is, you can’t truly approach nutrition without acknowledging the role it plays in an overall healthy lifestyle, along with many other factors that contribute to health and happiness. That’s why IIN teaches holistic health. It's important for you to see the connection between what you eat and how you live, so that the end result is a balanced individual who knows how to nourish your unique body and thrive. Here are 6 core concepts unique to my approach to nutrition: I recognize that everyone is different! There is no single diet or wellness approach that is going to work for everyone, and that’s ok. In fact, an increasing amount of research supports this approach, and it has even been recognized by the newest U.S. Dietary Guidelines. I will help you in the process of self-exploration through trying different foods or wellness routines, asking themselves “high-mileage” or deeply meaningful questions, and accepting their unique nutritional or lifestyle needs without comparison or judgment. As long as you’re eating mostly whole foods, feel good doing so, and are healthy and happy, then the possibilities of what you should eat and do every day are endless. As mentioned above, true health is about much more than food. You can eat all the leafy greens you want but if don’t like your job, are unfulfilled by your relationships, or are lacking daily movement or other forms of self-care, then you will be undernourished in life. Primary Food is the concept that nutrition, career, relationships, spirituality, fitness, and pursuing your passions play an equal role in creating wellness and should all be addressed when exploring health. This concept is so important and popular that my mentor who founded IIN, Joshua Rosenthal, wrote an entire book about it! Most diets focus on the things you should avoid, creating a cycle of deprivation, pressure, shame, and failure. In my approach, I focus on change by adding more good things into your diet as opposed to reducing the not-so-good. By adding more of the good stuff without really trying to change everything all at once, a natural cycle of abundance and curiosity sets in that gradually “crowds out” the not-so-good things. In this way, you’ll find that your preferences change over time, your cravings become redirected, and you simply won’t want the same things that you used to, or you’ll at least find it much easier to have balance. Have you ever found yourself disagreeing with how others approach wellness – or lack thereof – but are uncomfortable speaking out and drawing attention to yourself? We’ve all had a tendency to make ourselves “fit in” with the crowd so as not to create an inconvenience or be labeled as different. But is this really helping anyone? In my approach, I encourage you to “fit out” by being your amazing, beautiful self. Stop playing it safe and let your real self shine, be different, challenge the conventional thinking about wellness in your community, and do the things that make your heart sing. You know what else is good for you once in a while? Indulgence, fun, and pleasure! Sometimes being a little bad just feels so good, doesn’t it? We believe in balance and that means letting loose once in a while so you can simply enjoy yourself and feed your soul. 90/10 is a helpful reminder that if you eat wholesome foods and take good care of yourself 90% of the time, then your body can handle a cookie or a glass of wine from time to time. The point of wellness is not to adhere to anything so strictly that all the joy is sucked out of life. As long as you’re wellness-oriented the majority of the time, then you deserve to relax and indulge on occasion too. Eat Real Food Last but definitely not least, my core philosophy when it comes to eating is all about whole, unprocessed foods. We encourage students to eat seasonally, explore a diverse diet of different colors and textures, including vegetables and fruit, grains, different sources of protein, legumes, nuts, and seeds. It really doesn’t matter if you’re an omnivore, vegetarian, vegan, paleo, macrobiotic, Mediterranean, gluten-free, dairy-free or any combination of the above. The most important thing you’ll learn here is how to truly listen to your body and either give or reduce, depending on what makes YOU feel your best. Through this experience, you’ll also understand the preferences of others much better and will be able to share the valuable process of self-guidance towards wellness with a deeper understanding and greater patience and acceptance.

Three out of four don’t want taxes spent on Royal Wedding The UK’s love affair with the Royal Family appears to be drawing to a close, according to polling from YouGov commissioned by Republic. The republican organisation heralded a new dawn of apathy, as British voters by and large no longer cared about the outdated spectacle. Three out of four were directly opposed to the use of public funds for the royal wedding, and only a third are even interested. Only a third of the population would be “very disappointed" were the institution to be packed up after the Queen, while almost half are dead set against Prince Charles inheriting the throne. Even among royalists, there is widespread opposition to Bonnie Prince Charlie, which is strangely ironic. Support for monarchy falls to 38% if he is seen to be influencing policy, as he has done many times, mostly recently in Scotland through his endorsement of TeachFirst, a controversial teacher training scheme. The monarchy’s popularity has taken a number of hits in recent years, most notably after the Panama Papers exposed the use of tax avoidance schemes by the Crown Estate. Sympathy for the current occupant remains high, but patience is clearly waning with the institution. Responding to the findings, Republic's Graham Smith said today: "This YouGov poll shows a very clear picture of a nation disinterested and apathetic about the Royal Family." "We're not a nation of republicans yet - but we've stopped being a nation of royalists. Seven years of major royal events has left the British people deeply unimpressed." "A country in love with the royals wouldn't mind paying for the wedding, a nation of royalists would be keenly following the wedding coverage, and people who love the Queen would say so unequivocally." "We're constantly being told that the nation loves the Queen and the Royal Family - clearly that's not true." "We're told this weekend's wedding is a national celebration. Clearly that's not true." "And we're told the monarchy's future is secure. This poll suggests that is in doubt." "The royals are running out of fresh ideas and big PR opportunities - now the real debate about this rotten institution must begin."

Pregnancy is an exciting time in the life of a mother, or a family expecting a baby. However, there are a lot of things that are always bugging people which we are addressing in this article. Pregnancy lasts between thirty-eight to forty weeks, calculated from the last menstruation. Pregnancies are simply detectable these days, usually via blood or urine testing. The first physical sign of a foetus will appear in the form of a structure called the foetal pole. At this point, the embryo is barely visible in a tiny comma shape. Sometimes, the foetal pole might not be visible through ultrasound scanning, but there is no need to be nervous. What is the Foetal Pole? The foetal pole will appear in the fifth week of pregnancy as a 3 to 5mm thickening around the margin of the foetal yolk sac, which provides nutrition to the growing embryo. It is basically the structure that becomes the foetus. It has a rather curved structure, with the head at one end and a tail like formation on the other end. The distance between the head and tail which is called the crown-to-rump length is measured. The foetal pole will continue to grow at the rate of one mm per day, making its length a close approximation for the age of the foetus. The age is measured by adding the length of the foetus in mm up to 6 weeks. For example, if the foetal pole is 6 mm in length, then its age is six weeks and six days. However, this is only a rough idea of the age. When is It Seen on the Ultrasound? Around the second month of pregnancy, your doctor may suggest a trans-abdominal or transvaginal ultrasonography procedure. These will help identify developmental changes in the foetus, such as the formation of the foetal pole and detection of the foetal heartbeat. Missing Foetal Pole: What now? Why is the foetal pole not always seen on an ultrasound? There are numerous factors involved in the detection of a healthy foetus, such as the size of the gestational sac, menstrual cycle, measurement error and so on. Here is what a missing foetal pole could mean. - Pregnancy Has Been Dated Incorrectly Since the time scale for the appearance of the foetal pole can range between around six and nine weeks, predicting the time of conception incorrectly by even a few days could create an inaccurate reading of the ultrasound. For example, not correctly remembering your last menstrual period could throw off the predicted dates. Irregular cycles which are not consistently followed by ovulation two weeks after the period could mean that the pregnancy is not as old as you think it is. - Pregnancy Has Failed Sadly, the absence of a foetal pole can often mean that the pregnancy has not worked or that a miscarriage has occurred. In some cases, the uterine sac can develop and grow further for weeks before miscarriage can be identified. Another reason for miscarriage is the presence of a gestational sac larger than twenty-five mm without the foetal pole. - If There is a Foetal Pole But No Heartbeat? When the foetus is around 7 weeks old, its heartbeat is easily detectable. Normal heart rate can be in the range of 100-160 beats per minute. However, if the heartbeat is lower than 90 bpm, then it could be a non-viable pregnancy. Additionally, if the foetal pole can be seen, but the heartbeat is absent, all indications lead to a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy. As this is a common scenario, your doctor will most likely ask you to return for a follow-up ultrasound in the upcoming weeks to give the pregnancy enough time to develop. If future scans show similar results your doctor will confirm that a miscarriage has occurred. The development of a baby is a rather complex process. While one must always hope for the best, it will be helpful to prepare for difficult situations, so you can be ready. Even in the worst-case scenarios, it is important to remember that you have friends and family to lean on for support. And remember, you can always, always try again.

[Stay on top of transportation news: Get TTNews in your inbox.] Congressional movement on the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement was a good year-end victory for the trucking and freight industry that set the stage for growth in 2020, according to American Trucking Associations President Chris Spear. “There’s no question this agreement needed to be updated, certainly from the environmental and labor provisions. They were pretty antiquated,” Spear said Dec. 18 during an appearance on SiriusXM’s Road Dog Trucking News, discussing the trade agreement on which federal lawmakers and the Trump administration came to terms late last year. On Dec. 19, the House of Representatives passed USMCA on a 385-41 vote before adjourning for its holiday recess. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is expected to call the measure for a vote this year. This is big for trucking. 76% of goods traded across our northern & southern borders are moved by truck, and #USMCA is projected to grow these exports by some $33 BILLION above NAFTA levels. #USMCAnow https://t.co/GG3XAhCiSC— American Trucking (@TRUCKINGdotORG) December 20, 2019 Spear said the agreement will bring stability to much of the trucking and freight industry because it will be working with updated guidelines that make sense for a 21st-century economy. “The agreement is expected to generate 0.3% to 1% in gross domestic product. That’s going to be a significant windfall for trucking. We’re looking at roughly 170,000 to 175,000 new jobs for our industry through this new agreement,” he said. Spear also said he sees progress in 2020 with regard to trade between the U.S. and China. Washington and Beijing have an agreement that will stop the imposition of new tariffs from both nations and begin to roll back some already in place. “The tariffs have been directly impactful in our industry, particularly in aluminum and steel,” he said. “We are seeing an impact in agriculture, where they are really posing a drag.” Spear added, “Having good trade policies is important, but there is a break point. You can only do tariffs for so long before our industry cannot endure anymore, and we’re getting really close to that now.” With regard to infrastructure funding, Spear praised states that have approved funding initiatives to repair their highways and roads. However, he noted that they’re taking these actions but Congress and the White House have not reached an agreement on an infrastructure bill. “For our industry, we are interstate commerce,” he said. “You can’t have a patchwork of states trying to do their own thing. We are for — federally — an increase in the fuel tax, a nickel a year, for four years. That’s 20 cents total, raising $340 billion in new revenue. That’s new revenue that immediately goes right into the Highway Trust Fund, which is set to go broke next year. We’re shoring it up. It’s immediate. It’s conservative. It’s less than a penny on a dollar to administer, and it doesn’t add a dime to the deficit.” Spear added that infrastructure is an issue that should transcend politics. “You talk about purple, red, blue. I could care less what color they are, because roads and bridges aren’t political,” he said. “We all drive on them.” Want more news? Listen to today's daily briefing:

Listen to this page When working with young parents, you liaise frequently with midwife clinics and become connected with clients through these channels. You might not begin your advocacy until very late in the pregnancy depending on how and/or through whom a young person has been referred to your service. For example, Child Protection (or representatives from hospitals or other services) might refer you a client 8 and a half months pregnant, which restricts the kind and volume of advocacy you can do. Where advocacy is concerned, the earlier you come into contact with an expectant client the better. You will often need to ‘sell’ your services to resistant clients. Preconceived ideas about what you’re able to offer might mean young clients are reluctant to engage a youth worker. Negotiating the discussions that follow is a delicate process as you will need to ‘softly’ highlight your service’s benefits in ways that doesn’t overwhelm the client or put them off. In addition, depending on the client, you might need to advocate for the involvement of other services such as mental health services or drug and alcohol counselling etc. The importance of planning Clients entering hospital to give birth may already be apprehensive due to feeling self-conscious or judged by hospital staff. Approaching hospital with a plan is important; for example, liaise with hospital social workers so they’re informed regarding what to expect of the client and so that they can maintain contact with the client through their stay and offer support. For those who need it, extended hospital stays can be arranged through rigorous advocacy and strong relationships with hospitals and their social work departments (which often deal exclusively within the midwife clinic and cater especially to young and/or substance using patients). Ideally, a hospital social worker and your client will meet pre-birth as familiarity can help ease a client’s nerves and anxiety. Establishing this relationship before the birth, familiarising the client with the hospital through a hospital tour, and forming a plan for their hospital stay that focuses on preparing for a wide spectrum of emotions (extreme fatigue, isolation, being overwhelmed, withdrawal etc.) is essential to ensure your client is as prepared and informed as possible. Planning for child protection's involvement Many clients will enter hospital fearful of Child Protection’s potential involvement. It’s important that your aforementioned plan covers this topic in detail to ensure that clients know what to expect and unwelcome surprises are minimised. Advocacy at birth It’s important to begin advocacy well in advance: open a dialogue with Child Protection and discuss what they need to see from the client to avoid removal. Ideally, this channel of transparent communication will be opened as early as possible so that the young person fully understands what’s expected of them. Ideally empower your client to advocate on their own behalf and, through their pregnancy, to demonstrate progress and commitment to services. Advocating for flexibility A client who hasn’t accessed antenatal care throughout her pregnancy will require support to connect her with the necessary services as swiftly as possible. It may be necessary to explore the flexibility of services to ensure the client receives relevant treatment and support as required. It may be the case that a client will not expect or receive any visits from friends or family before or after the birth. This can be difficult, and, if roomed with another patient who receives many visits, can exacerbate feelings of sadness and isolation. Hold discussions with your client and the hospital social worker to prepare the client for this eventuality. Concerted support in such situations is essential to alleviate negative feelings as much as possible. Post-birth, you will need to ensure the client and newborn are going home to a safe environment and are linked in with a variety of services (including material aid where needed). You will find most young parents are eligible for Enhanced Services through Maternal & Child Health which allows for home visits, extended appointments, a greater number of appointments, additional background work into referrals for services etc. Sometimes you might experience other support service providers who are swift to notify after birth even when, in many cases, they are aware the young mother is linked in with services. This may necessitate advocacy such as secondary consultation whereby you speak directly with the nurse (or whoever made the notification) to ensure they have a full and detailed picture and understanding of the client’s situation, services linked in, progress being made and plans in place. It will also assist greatly if you have over time built strong relationships with maternal and child health; for example, YSAS workers in Victoria meet regularly with maternal and child health nurses so that everyone is known to each other and all involved remain on the same page as much as possible. Consider attending your client’s maternal and child health appointments. Key subjects such as sleeping, feeding, routines and immunisation are discussed in detail and present excellent learning opportunities for you as well as your client. Your advocacy can also help ensure your client is connected with the best possible maternal and child health stream for her particular circumstances; for example, she might be able to remain connected with the service long-term (often right through until her child starts school). Midwives’ clinics are big on emphasising the importance of clients keeping their six-week follow-up appointments. Many clients skip this appointment, which can result in missing key educational sessions that cover important subjects such as contraception, nutrition etc. Your advocacy is needed to connect your client with alternatives in these instances. Advocacy where in-hospital withdrawal is likely Your support needs to account for clients who are substance using throughout their pregnancy and up until birth. Withdrawal will begin in hospital for those who, for example, smoke cannabis daily. Vigilant support is required as mothers often experience ‘third-day blues’ whereby hormones are running wild resulting in chaotic feelings mingled with negative emotions. Paired with withdrawal, this can be an extremely difficult time for a young parent and heightened support is required. Where possible, ensure your client is fully informed – that is, hold in-depth discussions and construct a safety plan – around what to expect and how to deal with withdrawal in hospital. It’s important that the hospital is made aware that the client is likely to experience substance withdrawal and that all involved are prepared and the client receives additional support where needed. Perhaps you’ll need to advocate for a GP’s involvement to secure medication that minimises the effects of withdrawal without harm to the baby. Advocacy in cases of removal and voluntary undertaking In situations where removal shortly after birth occurs, young parents are often expected to present at court within the next few days. Not only is post-birth a highly stressful and emotional time but the extremely narrow timeframe makes it near impossible for a young person to prepare themselves for court, which means most will turn up unrepresented. It’s important to connect young parents with legal representatives whose legal advice you trust and to advocate for them through this particularly demanding challenge. Pre-birth meetings to form a post-birth plan should cover subjects such as who can look after the child if Child Protection proposes voluntary undertaking or removal. Establish a list of police-checked and trusted individuals that serves as the client’s list of preferences. If removal occurs, Child Protection might consider the client’s list rather than explore foster parent options. A list can help to avoid confusion, minimise distress and help the young parent feel that even in the crisis case of removal they still have a voice and a potential say in what happens with their children.

Enjoy this video and keep an eye out for this young and gifted person in the future. By JOANNE LIPMAN Published: In The New York Times on October 12, 2013 CONDOLEEZZA RICE trained to be a concert pianist. Alan Greenspan, former chairman of the Federal Reserve, was a professional clarinet and saxophone player. The hedge fund billionaire Bruce Kovner is a pianist who took classes at Juilliard. Multiple studies link music study to academic achievement. But what is it about serious music training that seems to correlate with outsize success in other fields? The connection isn’t a coincidence. I know because I asked. I put the question to top-flight professionals in industries from tech to finance to media, all of whom had serious (if often little-known) past lives as musicians. Almost all made a connection between their music training and their professional achievements. The phenomenon extends beyond the math-music association. Strikingly, many high achievers told me music opened up the pathways to creative thinking. And their experiences suggest that music training sharpens other qualities: Collaboration. The ability to listen. A way of thinking that weaves together disparate ideas. The power to focus on the present and the future simultaneously. Will your school music program turn your kid into a Paul Allen, the billionaire co-founder of Microsoft (guitar)? Or a Woody Allen (clarinet)? Probably not. These are singular achievers. But the way these and other visionaries I spoke to process music is intriguing. As is the way many of them apply music’s lessons of focus and discipline into new ways of thinking and communicating — even problem solving. Look carefully and you’ll find musicians at the top of almost any industry. Woody Allen performs weekly with a jazz band. The television broadcaster Paula Zahn (cello) and the NBC chief White House correspondent Chuck Todd (French horn) attended college on music scholarships; NBC’s Andrea Mitchell trained to become a professional violinist. Both Microsoft’s Mr. Allen and the venture capitalist Roger McNamee have rock bands. Larry Page, a co-founder of Google, played saxophone in high school. Steven Spielberg is a clarinetist and son of a pianist. The former World Bank president James D. Wolfensohn has played cello at Carnegie Hall. “It’s not a coincidence,” says Mr. Greenspan, who gave up jazz clarinet but still dabbles at the baby grand in his living room. “I can tell you as a statistician, the probability that that is mere chance is extremely small.” The cautious former Fed chief adds, “That’s all that you can judge about the facts. The crucial question is: why does that connection exist?” Paul Allen offers an answer. He says music “reinforces your confidence in the ability to create.” Mr. Allen began playing the violin at age 7 and switched to the guitar as a teenager. Even in the early days of Microsoft, he would pick up his guitar at the end of marathon days of programming. The music was the emotional analog to his day job, with each channeling a different type of creative impulse. In both, he says, “something is pushing you to look beyond what currently exists and express yourself in a new way.” Mr. Todd says there is a connection between years of practice and competition and what he calls the “drive for perfection.” The veteran advertising executive Steve Hayden credits his background as a cellist for his most famous work, the Apple “1984” commercial depicting rebellion against a dictator. “I was thinking of Stravinsky when I came up with that idea,” he says. He adds that his cello performance background helps him work collaboratively: “Ensemble playing trains you, quite literally, to play well with others, to know when to solo and when to follow.” For many of the high achievers I spoke with, music functions as a “hidden language,” as Mr. Wolfensohn calls it, one that enhances the ability to connect disparate or even contradictory ideas. When he ran the World Bank, Mr. Wolfensohn traveled to more than 100 countries, often taking in local performances (and occasionally joining in on a borrowed cello), which helped him understand “the culture of people, as distinct from their balance sheet.” It’s in that context that the much-discussed connection between math and music resonates most. Both are at heart modes of expression. Bruce Kovner, the founder of the hedge fund Caxton Associates and chairman of the board of Juilliard, says he sees similarities between his piano playing and investing strategy; as he says, both “relate to pattern recognition, and some people extend these paradigms across different senses.” Mr. Kovner and the concert pianist Robert Taub both describe a sort of synesthesia — they perceive patterns in a three-dimensional way. Mr. Taub, who gained fame for his Beethoven recordings and has since founded a music software company, MuseAmi, says that when he performs, he can “visualize all of the notes and their interrelationships,” a skill that translates intellectually into making “multiple connections in multiple spheres.” For others I spoke to, their passion for music is more notable than their talent. Woody Allen told me bluntly, “I’m not an accomplished musician. I get total traction from the fact that I’m in movies.” Mr. Allen sees music as a diversion, unconnected to his day job. He likens himself to “a weekend tennis player who comes in once a week to play. I don’t have a particularly good ear at all or a particularly good sense of timing. In comedy, I’ve got a good instinct for rhythm. In music, I don’t, really.” Still, he practices the clarinet at least half an hour every day, because wind players will lose their embouchure (mouth position) if they don’t: “If you want to play at all you have to practice. I have to practice every single day to be as bad as I am.” He performs regularly, even touring internationally with his New Orleans jazz band. “I never thought I would be playing in concert halls of the world to 5,000, 6,000 people,” he says. “I will say, quite unexpectedly, it enriched my life tremendously.” Music provides balance, explains Mr. Wolfensohn, who began cello lessons as an adult. “You aren’t trying to win any races or be the leader of this or the leader of that. You’re enjoying it because of the satisfaction and joy you get out of music, which is totally unrelated to your professional status.” For Roger McNamee, whose Elevation Partners is perhaps best known for its early investment in Facebook, “music and technology have converged,” he says. He became expert on Facebook by using it to promote his band, Moonalice, and now is focusing on video by live-streaming its concerts. He says musicians and top professionals share “the almost desperate need to dive deep.” This capacity to obsess seems to unite top performers in music and other fields. Ms. Zahn remembers spending up to four hours a day “holed up in cramped practice rooms trying to master a phrase” on her cello. Mr. Todd, now 41, recounted in detail the solo audition at age 17 when he got the second-highest mark rather than the highest mark — though he still was principal horn in Florida’s All-State Orchestra. “I’ve always believed the reason I’ve gotten ahead is by outworking other people,” he says. It’s a skill learned by “playing that solo one more time, working on that one little section one more time,” and it translates into “working on something over and over again, or double-checking or triple-checking.” He adds, “There’s nothing like music to teach you that eventually if you work hard enough, it does get better. You see the results.” That’s an observation worth remembering at a time when music as a serious pursuit — and music education — is in decline in this country. Consider the qualities these high achievers say music has sharpened: collaboration, creativity, discipline and the capacity to reconcile conflicting ideas. All are qualities notably absent from public life. Music may not make you a genius, or rich, or even a better person. But it helps train you to think differently, to process different points of view — and most important, to take pleasure in listening. Joanne Lipman is a co-author, with Melanie Kupchynsky, of the book “Strings Attached: One Tough Teacher and the Gift of Great Expectations.” A version of this op-ed appears in print on October 13, 2013, on page SR9 of The New York Times of the New York edition with the headline: Is Music the Key to Success?. at 7:08 AM October 5, 3013 by ChristyK of the blog Christy’s House full of Chaos: Dr. Fuddle and the Gold Baton was sent to me to review a while ago, and my eight year old stole it, read it and hid it on me. Thankfully it has resurfaced and I can do my long-since overdue review. 10. Piano practice is more fun if you pretend that you have to turn evil monsters into harmless pets by resolving the scales. 9. You’ve memorized The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and you want another story about children being called into a magical land to save it. 8. The book explains what a glass harmonica is, something I’ve been curious about since listening to a particular version of the Carnival of the Animals which acknowledged a section that was meant to be played on a glass harmonica being played on a gluckenspiele instead. 7. You need some new creative names for foods, like Bellini Bread or Rossini Rolls. 6. Reading Dr. Fuddle and the Gold Baton can be a balance reminding us of the importance of music, when we otherwise read way too many novels about math and science. 5. The abundant references to musical concepts, to composers and songs can help normalize the importance of musical knowledge. It encourages a child to say “I’ve heard of that!” It raises the bar for what is seen as normal everyday knowledge. 4 . The book contains a glossary of music terms a child can refer back to. 3. The book provides positive role models. The children within it are struggling with different challenges – wanting to figure out who they are, and what they want in life. They deal with both guilt and forgiveness. 2. The book reinforces the idea of practice, that it takes time and energy to improve one’s skills at an instrument, but at the same time that music is not just about developing technical skill and bored routine. 1.Most importantly: the book is fun. It is well written, reasonably fast paced and has a bit of a surprise at the ending. The book mentions many different songs, most of which one could find samples of on YouTube. If you read the book outloud with your kids, you can have a musical soundrtrack to go with it. at 11:23 AM Photograph by Gordon Welters for The New York Times By REBECCA SCHMID Published: In the New York Times October 8, 2013 BERLIN — When Cameron Carpenter first came here, Berlin was covered in snow and looked as if spies might be lurking in the shadows. A year later, in 2010, Mr. Carpenter — the enfant terrible of the concert organ world — moved from the East Village to a loft in what was once a bombed-out neighborhood in the East German side of the city and is now the trendy district of Mitte. “I was personally attracted to the history of the city,” Mr. Carpenter, 32, recalled recently, as he sat on a vintage couch in his apartment. “It is a very reinventive place, by necessity. As an American and particularly as an artist, I find that very attractive.” Berlin, with its low-priced real estate and openness to experimentation, is well established as a hotbed of the visual arts. Its growing film and fashion industries have also drawn ambitious agenda-setters from all corners of the world, who have found a welcome atmosphere in which to create and mix with other artists. More recently, it has also developed into an important hub for the classical music world. The French label Harmonia Mundi will move its German headquarters to Mitte from Heidelberg this month, and over the last four years, Sony and Deutsche Grammophon have set up international offices in Berlin. Major management and public relations firms like Opus 3, Albion Media and Konzertdirektion Schmid have opened branches here. Scores of young composers, not to mention some leading ones, like Olga Neuwirth, Mark Andre and Brett Dean, have made their homes here as well. While austerity plagues many parts of Europe, the German government continues to support three full-time opera houses and seven orchestras in the capital. Although the Berlin Philharmonic has always been a major draw, institutions in the former Eastern sector — like the Konzerthaus Berlin, now with Ivan Fischer as music director, and the Komische Oper, under the leadership of the stage director Barrie Kosky — each saw a rise in attendance of over 10 percent last season. The Konzerthaus had 156,876 concertgoers, 17,881 more than the year before. The Komische Oper had 18,000 more audience members than in the previous season. Tourism is an additional boon to the classical music scene, now that Berlin has become one of Europe’s most visited cities. The press office of the Konzerthaus estimates that 27 percent of its audience consists of tourists. The pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard, 56, a champion of contemporary music and founding member of the Ensemble InterContemporain, calls Berlin, culturally and intellectually, “the town par excellence in Europe” right now, not least for its important geopolitical position. Two years ago, he moved here from Paris, where he had lived since his days as a student. “It is interesting to live in a city that is undergoing permanent changes,” he said in the airy, high-ceilinged apartment he shares with his companion in the quiet district of Schöneberg. “Things are not completely solved. What I find extremely positive is that Berlin carries its history with such a level of cleverness, reflection and sense for justice. I think that’s a big lesson to mankind.” Just over two decades ago, Berlin was a city incapable of competing with New York, London or Paris as a music center. Since the fall of the Berlin Wall and, more recently, with the rise of Germany as a leading economic and cultural force in the European Union, an influx of artists has gradually restored the city’s vibrancy. The movement includes a young generation of Israelis, who, according to the Berlin-based mandolinist Avi Avital, “don’t see the New York of Stern and Perlman anymore, but the Berlin of Rattle and Barenboim.” The American cellist Alisa Weilerstein, 31, and her new husband, the conductor Rafael Payare, have plans to make the city their European base soon — not least because so many musician and artist friends are flocking here. “Berlin is what New York was 30 years ago, and I mean that in the best possible sense,” she said by phone from her Manhattan home. “It has all the advantages but without the craziness. Because it’s so affordable, it is much more inclusive, in a way. There is such a sense of discovery and openness.” Berlin’s rise is not a sudden phenomenon. The conductor Herbert von Karajan played a pioneering role in the recording industry after the war with the Berlin Philharmonic, championing stereophonic and then digital recording technologies. This year Deutsche Grammophon is celebrating a full century of partnership with the orchestra. The city offers a variety of recording spaces, from the up-to-the-minute Teldex studios, which Ms. Weilerstein calls the best in the world, to the unassuming but acoustically strong Jesus-Christus-Kirche and the Funkhaus Nalepastrasse, a former East Berlin broadcasting headquarters where the violinist Daniel Hope recorded his most recent album, “Spheres.” The president of Sony Masterworks, Bogdan Roscic, said that there has been a “pretty massive output of important recordings” from Berlin that wasn’t there five years ago. Since the company consolidated its core classical activities in Berlin, Sony Classical has signed Lang Lang, Plácido Domingo and Jonas Kaufmann, as well as newcomers like Mr. Carpenter and the pianists Khatia Buniatishvili and Igor Levit. Berlin’s growth has also inspired Deutsche Grammophon to initiate an outdoor festival next summer, showcasing its younger artists. And in a city where techno can be heard any time of day, the recently established label Panorama has brought together the electronica artist Schiller with Anna Netrebko, Hélène Grimaud and Albrecht Mayer for its first album. Ms. Weilerstein recalled performing Shostakovich’s Eighth String Quartet with interludes of live D.J. remixes at the alternative arts space Radialsystem last summer. “Only in Berlin could we cross worlds so easily,” she said. A version of this article appears in print on October 9, 2013, on page C1 of The New York Times of the New York edition with the headline: Musicians, Too, Make Berlin Their Capital. at 7:45 AM Be one of the first to experience an exciting new world beyond your wildest imagination! Dr. Fuddle & the Gold Baton has been hailed by critics as “destined to be a classic” and “a literary masterpiece.” Join Dr. Fuddle and his young friends in a once-in-a-lifetime adventure springing from a seemingly unsolvable mystery in a small New England town to Orphea, the land of eternal music and beauty, threatened by an insidious evil force. Tyler and his sister Christina plunge into this perilous journey. Will they and their friends even survive, let alone be able to heroically save Orphea, as foretold by an ancient prophecy? Armed with only their instincts, determination and the guidance of a centuries old music teacher who appears out of thin air? Danger lurks at every turn—and for their only chance of victory they must master magical sacred instruments—and themselves—to reclaim the legendary Gold Baton from the dark.

Come and write for us and you will get a share of the revenue made, plus it's really fun. We are currently offering guaranteed bronze $5 awards for articles with at least 1000 characters, 3 images and at least 1 original image. So grab the kids together and let's have some fun :) Helium Balloons - The Do's and the Don'ts for Kids Parties Helium is a non-toxic and inert gas, and the 2nd lightest in the known universe, after Nitrogen. These properties make helium balloons an all-time party favourite. However, certain party practices, like inhaling helium that gives one a Donald Duck voice, have proven to be dangerous. That leads us to ask whether helium is good for parties? The answer is yes, but it must be used correctly and with caution and vigilance. What is Helium? Helium was first discovered terrestrially in 1895 by the Scottish chemist Sir William Ramsay in London. ‘Helium' is derived from the Greek word 'Helios' which implies the sun. It has been so named as the gas was first detected in the sun's corona during a solar eclipse. In addition, Helium is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, and monatomic gas. It is also the first in the noble gas group in the periodic table. Moreover, its boiling point is the lowest among all the elements. Other than being used in balloons, Helium is used as a lightweight aircraft fuel, as the superconducting magnets in MRI scanners, and divers use the combination of oxygen and helium during their dives. A study in the Journal of Forensic Sciences found that between July 2005 and December 2009, more than 79 Australians were found to have died from inhaling helium, a staggering increase of 163%. Helium gas is said to displace the air in the lungs and cuts off the oxygen supply. It causes people to lose consciousness and halt breathing by rupturing air sacs in the lungs. Laws in New South Wales In New South Wales, a maximum amount of 20 balloons at a time is allowed to be released in the air. Throughout Australia, only New South Wales adopted this legislation back in 1999. No other states followed suit due to insufficient scientific evidence regarding Helium's harmful properties. Credit: Pexels, CC0 License. 2016 The legislation further states that only latex balloons, hand knotted with no ribbon must be used, and not micro foil. Most of the balloons will rise 8,500 meters high, where the latex will weaken due to the cold air. The air is also very thin at that height, and this causes the latex to shatter into tiny pieces before returning to the ground. In this way, the concerns over marine life deaths by choking on larger remnants of the balloons is eliminated, as smaller latex pieces are able to be ingested by them. Making Parties colourful and fun Even though Helium has certain disadvantages, it can prove to be extremely useful, though needs to be handled with caution. According to ShinDigs party hire, “One of the best ways to decorate parties and functions is with balloons and one of the easiest ways to do that is to fill them with helium”. When done safely, they add colour and entertainment for kids. Parties are always more fun and colourful with balloons, and far more with helium balloons that bring more drama and style with its floating properties. Why not have your guests release red, white, and blue balloons that reflect the national flag, making the party even more patriotic and fun?

WHAT WILL BE THE LEGAL SYSTEM USED IN THE NEW COMMUNE UNTIL ALL OF ITS MEMBERS ARE TOTALLY CONSCIOUS? WILL THERE NEED TO BE A SYSTEM OF PUNISHMENT AND REWARD? Maneesha, all legal systems are nothing but the revenge of society -- revenge against those who don't fit in with the system. According to me, law is not for protection of the just, it is for protection of the crowd mind; whether it is just or unjust does not matter. Law is against the individual and for the crowd. It is an effort to reduce the individual and his freedom, and his possibility of being himself. The latest scientific researches are very revealing. The people who are termed criminals are not responsible for their crimes; their crimes are genetic, they inherit them. Just as a blind man is not responsible for his blindness, a murderer is not responsible for his murderousness. Both inherit the tendency -- one of blindness, another of committing murder. Now it is almost an established scientific fact that punishing anybody for any crime is simply idiotic. It is almost like punishing somebody because he has tuberculosis -- sending him to jail because he is suffering from cancer. All criminals are sick, psychologically and spiritually both. In my vision of a commune, the courts will not consist of law experts, they will consist of people who understand genetics and how crimes are inherited from generation to generation. They have to decide not for any punishment, because every punishment is wrong -- not only wrong, every punishment is criminal. The man who has committed anything wrong has to be sent to the right institution; maybe a hospital, to be operated on, or a psychiatric institution, or a psychoanalytic school. He needs our sympathy, our love, our help. Instead of giving him our sympathy and love, for centuries we have been giving him punishment. Man has committed so much cruelty behind such beautiful names as order, law, justice. The new man will not have any jails and will not have any judges and will not have any legal experts. These are absolutely unnecessary, cancerous growths on the body of society. There will certainly have to be sympathetic scientists; meditative, compassionate beings, to work out why it happened that a certain man committed rape: is he really responsible? According to me, on no account is he responsible. Either he has committed rape because of the priests and the religions teaching celibacy, repression for thousands of years -- this is the outcome of a repressive morality -- or biologically he has hormones which compel him to commit rape. Although you are living in a modern society, most of you are not contemporaries because you are not aware of the reality that science goes on discovering. Your educational system prevents you from knowing it, your religions prevent you from knowing it, your governments prevent you from knowing it. A man is attracted to a woman and thinks that he is in love. The woman also thinks she is in love. But the scientific truth is that they both have certain biological factors, certain hormones that attract each other. That's why it is possible to change the sex of one person from man to woman or from woman to man just by changing the hormonal system. A good injection of hormones and you are full of love. The man who is committing rape perhaps has more hormones than those moral people who manage to live with one woman for their whole life, thinking that they are moral. The real fact is that their hormones are very weak; it is enough for their hormones to be satisfied with one woman. A man with more hormones will need more women; so will be the case with a woman. It is not a question of morality, it is a question of biology. A man who commits rape needs all our sympathy, needs a certain operation in which his extra hormones are removed, and he will cool down, calm down -- he will become a Gautam Buddha. To punish him is simply an exercise in stupidity. By punishing, you cannot change his hormones. Throwing him in jail, you will create a homosexual, some kind of pervert. In American jails they have done a survey: thirty percent of the inmates are homosexuals. That is according to their confession; we don't know how many have not confessed. Thirty percent is not a small number. In monasteries the number is bigger -- fifty percent, sixty percent. But the responsibility lies with our idiotic clinging to religions which are out of date, which are not supported and nourished by scientific research. The new commune of man will be based on science, not on superstition. If somebody does something which is harmful to the commune as such, then his body has to be looked into; he needs some physiological change or biological change. His mind has to be looked into -- perhaps he needs some psychoanalysis. The deepest possibility is that neither the body nor the mind are of much help; that means he needs a deep spiritual regeneration, a deep meditative cleansing. Instead of courts, we should have meditative centers of different kinds, so every unique individual can find his own way. And we will have -- instead of law experts, who are simply irrelevant: they are parasites sucking our blood.We need scientific people of different persuasions in the courts, because somebody may have a chemical defect, somebody may have a biological defect, somebody may have a physiological defect. We need all these kinds of experts, of all persuasions and schools of psychology, all types of meditators, and we can transform the poor people who have been victims of unknown forces... and have been punished by us. They have suffered in a double sense. First, they are suffering from an unknown biological force. Secondly, they are suffering at the hands of your judges, who are nothing but butchers, henchmen; your advocates, all kinds of your law experts, your jailers -- it is simply so insane that future human beings will not be able to believe it. It is almost the same with the past. Just the other day there was a report from South India that a woman was thought to be having intercourse with the devil. Now the devil has been almost dead for many centuries; suddenly he became alive in that small village. And the villagers took the woman to the priest who declared that she should be hung upside down from a tree and beaten: the devil is still inside her. Somebody informed the police of the nearby town. The police arrived, but the villagers were reluctant.... Two hundred villagers were standing, stopping the police, saying, "You cannot interfere with our religious conceptions." And they were beating the woman -- they killed her! Until she was dead, they were not satisfied. They could not find the devil, but they killed the woman. This used to be the common practice all over the world. Mad people were beaten to cure their madness; people who were schizophrenic, who were thought to be possessed by ghosts, were beaten almost to death -- this was thought to be the treatment. Millions of people have died because of your great treatments. Now we can simply say that those people were barbarous, ignorant, primitive. The same will be said about us. I am already saying it: that your courts are barbarous, your laws are barbarous. The very idea of punishment is unscientific. There is nobody in the world who is a criminal; everybody is sick, and needs sympathy and a scientific cure, and half of your crimes will disappear. First, with the disappearance of private property.... Private property creates thieves, dacoits, pickpockets, politicians, priests. You will be surprised to know that just a few days ago a cartoonist was put into jail in the contemporary, educated city of Madras, because he has printed a cartoon in a magazine with the caption that the man who looks like a pickpocket is a cabinet minister; and the man who looks like a dacoit, is the prime minister. There were two men in the cartoon. Immediately, he was caught by the police -- and this is called democracy! One cannot even joke, one cannot even laugh. He has not named anybody -- but all your politicians are pickpockets, are dacoits. They also need psychiatric treatment, they also need sympathetic psychiatric nursing homes. They have to be cured of their politics. Politics is a disease. Man has suffered from many diseases and he has not even been aware that they are diseases. He has been punishing small criminals and he has been worshiping great criminals. Who is Alexander the Great? -- a great criminal; he murdered people on a mass scale. Adolf Hitler alone killed millions of people, but he will be remembered in history as a great leader of man. I received a letter from the president of the Neo-Nazi party saying that I should stop speaking against Adolf Hitler because, "It hurts our religious feeling." I said, "My God!" I had been receiving letters from Hindus, from Mohammedans, from Christians, from Buddhists, from Jainas. I have been facing hundreds of cases in courts on the same grounds, that I have hurt somebody's religious feeling -- but I had never even dreamt that to speak against Adolf Hitler was going to hurt someone's religious feelings. And the president of Neo-Nazi party had said, "Adolf Hitler, to us, is not just a great political leader, he is also the reincarnation of the ancient, Old Testament prophet Elijah. Now he will be remembered in history as the great incarnation of the prophet Elijah who killed forty-five million people. Certainly it must have been done according to the will of God. Who are the people you read about in history? Napoleon Bonaparte, Ivan the Terrible, Nadir Shah, Genghis Khan, Tamerlane are all mass scale criminals. But their crimes are so big, perhaps, that you cannot conceive.... They have killed millions of people, burned millions of people alive, but they are not thought of as criminals. And a small pickpocket, who takes away a two rupee note from your pocket will be punished by the court. And perhaps the two rupee note that you were carrying was not authentic at all. But his mother is dying, and he has no money for medicine, and I cannot say that he is a criminal; he is simply a kind-hearted man who loves his mother. Once private property disappears.... And in a commune there is going to be no private property, everything belongs to all; naturally, stealing will disappear. You don't steal water and accumulate it, you don't steal air. A commune has to create everything in such abundance that even the retarded person cannot think of accumulating it. What is the point? It is always available, fresh. Money has to disappear from society. A commune does not need money. Your needs should be fulfilled by the commune. All have to produce, and all have to make the commune richer, affluent, accepting the fact that a few people will be lazy. But there is no harm in it. In every family, you will find somebody lazy. Somebody is a poet, somebody is a painter, somebody simply goes on playing on his flute -- but you love the person. A certain percentage of lazy people will be respectfully allowed. In fact a commune that does not have lazy people will be a little less rich than other communes which have a few lazy people who do nothing but meditate, who do nothing but go on playing on their guitar while others are toiling in the fields. A little more human outlook is needed; these people are not useless. They may not seem to be productive of commodities, but they are producing a certain joyful, cheerful atmosphere. Their contribution is meaningful and significant. With the disappearance of money as a means of exchange, many crimes will disappear. As religions disappear, with their repressive superstitions and moralities, crimes like rape, perversions like homosexuality, diseases like AIDS will become unheard of. And when from the very beginning every child is brought up with a reverence for life -- reverence for the trees because they are alive, reverence for animals, reverence for birds -- do you think such a child one day can be a murderer? It will be almost inconceivable. And if life is joyous, full of songs and dances, do you think somebody will desire to commit suicide? Ninety percent of crimes will disappear automatically; only ten percent of crimes may remain, which are genetic, which need hospitalization -- but not jails, prisons, not people to be sentenced to death. This is all so ugly, so inhuman, so insane. The new commune, the new man, can live without any law, without any order. Love will be his law, understanding will be his order. Science will be, in every difficult situation, his last resort. I HAVE NOT A POEM OF MY OWN TO WRITE TO YOU, SO I WRITE OTHERS. I HAVE NOT A SONG OF MY OWN TO SING TO YOU, SO I SING OTHERS. I HAVE NOTHING TO GIVE TO YOU BUT MY OLD DESIRES, FEARS, FAILURES, JEALOUSIES. MY HEART ACHES, FOR I WANT TO BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING OF ME, BUT THAT I AM STILL TRYING TO FIND. THE HEART ONLY KNOWS, MY BELOVED. PLEASE COMMENT. Kendra, if you do not have a poem of your own, there is no need to write others. Send me blank sheets of paper. They will show much more of your heart than words which are borrowed. The only book in the world that I can call holy is a book Sufis have been carrying for almost twelve centuries. The first man who had it used to read it by locking his doors, closing his windows; his disciples were always puzzled, intrigued. They tried in every possible way -- even sometimes they went up on the roof, removed a tile -- just to see what is written in that book, because that old master never used to open that book before anybody. He used to keep it covered in beautiful cloth, hiding it under his pillow, so even while he was asleep nobody could manage to get to the book. It created more and more temptation. And the day he died, people were not so concerned with his death; they were more concerned to take out the book first and see what was there -- "As far as he is concerned, he is dead; he can wait a little for the last funeral rites, but let us see what is in that book." And they were shocked and surprised, the book was empty. Between those two covers there was not a single word, just empty pages. They went through all the pages, there were almost three hundred pages. They thought there must be something -- that man was very clever and cunning, so he must be hiding it somewhere. But there was nothing in the book. And the old man was really very clever, he had not died. He just opened his one eye, and said, "Are you satisfied? I am going to die, don't be worried. I was just waiting to see the reaction." He laughed and he died. But he had told to his chief disciple just the day before, "You will be the possessor of the book, because it is the holiest of the holies. It is just the silence and wordless interiority of your being. For twelve centuries continuously, the book has passed from hand to hand, from master to disciple." One of the Sufis who is very well-known in the West, Idries Shah, tried to publish the book, but no publisher was ready. Every publisher looked here and there and they said, "But there is nothing to publish." Just to satisfy them, he has written a few lines as an introduction to the book; the history of the book for twelve centuries... the beginning, how it has been transferred from hand to hand, how it has been worshiped, and how it has been read for twelve centuries by great masters. Finally it has been published by a daring publisher, thinking that people may at least use it as a notebook. The Western mind cannot understand a few things, a few things which are absolutely Eastern. Those who understand have been angry at Idries Shah, that he compromised. I myself am angry at the man. There was no need to compromise, the book could have remained unpublished. But just to publish it, he wrote a few pages of introduction, and destroyed the beauty of it, the whole sanctity of it. Kendra, if you cannot sing your own song, be silent. Your silence is far more valuable than the greatest song which you have borrowed from somebody else. It will not be alive, it will not have a heartbeat. It will not be breathing. Your silence will be breathing. Your silence will have a heartbeat to it. Your silence will be alive. And don't offer me dead things. You say, "I have nothing to give to you but my old desires, fears, failures." But you don't give them either. People just talk. They talk; they want to give their fears, their failures, their jealousies, their desires, but nothing reaches to me. I go on waiting and waiting, and they go on enjoying their jealousies, and their desires. If you don't want to give, don't say it. If you want to give, then give. And you are not giving any treasures. You are giving all kinds of poisons. But just the idea that you want to give is in itself beautiful. And I don't care whether you give poisons or treasures, but give. Just don't go on talking about giving. You say, "My heart aches, for I want to be able to give you something of me." Kendra, you must be very miserly... something of you? not even the totality? What will you give to me? just a hand, which will become a burden to me? There is only one giving, it is never partial. And you cannot give yourself in installments, something today and something tomorrow... slowly, slowly gathering courage, cutting yourself into slices. You are not a loaf of a bread; you are a living being. Either you give yourself in totality, or you don't give. This is not the case only with you, Kendra, it is the case with many people. They go on talking beautifully, "My heart aches". I suspect. If you have a headache, I can believe it. But the heartache is a very deep, a very profound feeling. People know heart failures, people don't know heartache. You can find so many medicines for headache, but have you heard of any medicine for heartache? It is just poetry, borrowed. "My heart aches, for I want to be able to give you something." First you want to be able.... Can't you give yourself as you are right now -- because I don't expect from you something very refined, cultured, a diamond cut with great art and polished. No, I love you as you are raw, wild, but simple and just yourself. Don't wait for becoming able; you will never become able. But this too has been your conditioning by the society, that you can offer yourself only when you are qualified. But in this temple of love, no qualifications are needed. Just the longing to give is enough qualification. Just give yourself, and forget all about it. Don't remember that you have given yourself, and don't remind me again and again, "Listen, I have given myself to you." Give yourself and forget the whole matter. Giving should be simple -- so simple that no record should be kept of it, because you are not a kind of income that a record has to be kept. Then income tax officers will come, and I will have to be income taxed, because so many people are coming to me and offering themselves to me -- their jealousies, their desires, their angers and their fears. And my income is so much, that I must be taxed.... You simply give! I have never paid any tax, and I am not going to pay any tax, ever. When I was a professor in the university, and my income came to the point that beyond it, it would become taxable, I informed the university, "Now my salary has come to the full point." They said, "What do you mean? Within the next month, you are going to have an increment." I said, "Forget all about it, I will not take any increment because with that increment comes taxation. And I hate only one thing in life, that is income tax." And I never allowed them. They were very much surprised; the vice-chancellor tried to persuade me, even the clerks, the cashiers, said, "Look, this is very crazy; what will people think if they hear about it? The income tax is going to be very little, and if you stop taking increments then your salary will remain stuck always at this point. And you are so young you can reach to the salary of the vice-chancellor without any trouble just by your seniority." I said, "I am not going anywhere. Just keep it at this point, because above it comes income tax." Since then, my income is of a totally different kind -- fears, anxieties, tensions, anguish; these are not taxable. Why should you be worried first to become able to give? Whatever you are, as you are... I don't put any conditions on anybody. My love is unconditional, and my acceptance is without asking you to be anything other than you are. In this relaxed attitude, the meeting and merging between the master and the disciple happens; there is no other way. The rabbi was distressed at the lack of generosity amongst his congregation, and he prayed that the rich should give more charity to the poor. "And has your prayer been answered?" asked his wife. "Half of it was," replied the rabbi. "The poor are willing to accept." As far as I am concerned, I am willing to accept. Now it is a question of you -- are you willing to give, or are you first waiting to become able to give? If I am ready to accept right now, why waste time, and why wait for tomorrow? Giving yourself will be such a relaxation, such a transformation, such a joy, that you cannot conceive it; you can only experience if you go through the gesture of giving. The Golden Future

If you are looking for a camera which will be used by frequent travelers then you should go for something sleek and small so it’s easy to carry. The basic features you should look for is good storage capability, high zoom, good battery life, good option to download the video onto your computer and good quality display with a good overall built quality. Some travel digital video cameras come with a DVD recorder function, so whatever video you shoot with it, it directly records it on a DVD and you can simple remove the DVD and run it on your DVD player or your personnel computer. There are also other options like memory cards and memory sticks also known as flash memory storage. These are also good since they can be upgraded and increased up to 64 GB. With that kind of space you can record very large quantities of video and even take lots of photos if the camera supports the photo function. Most of the DV cameras come with very high zoom since its design allows the lense a lot of moving space. A camera with up to 44X zoom should be good enough. With that you can almost zoom in to the moon and capture its craters with good clear quality. A decent battery life will give you a recording time of around 3 to 6 hours. This is important when you are travelling since you won’t find a spot for charging the camera again and again where ever you go. Some cameras also have the option to recharge the battery outside the cam. In such cases you can buy a spare battery and keep it charged so that you can instantly replace the worn out battery and start shooting again in minutes. You will get an USB cable or sometimes will need to use a fire wire connection to download the videos that you capture from your DV cameras. There are different types of storage facilities in the DV cams today like professional DV tapes, DVDs, memory cards or sticks. What is important is that you should be able to get the video without the intervention of a studio or professionals. Videos captured directly into avi or other formats are best to use. To watch the stunningly clear videos that you just captured using the best travel digital video cameras you need to have a great quality display on the camera. It also helps in durability and long life if the built quality of the camera is good.

3 Ways to Retain Your Employees in a Competitive Market The construction industry has gone through a roller coaster in the past decade. Rise, sharp fall, and now it's rising again. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, demand for construction laborers and helpers is set to rise 13%, which is almost twice the rate of other occupations. This is great news, at first glance, for many construction firms. The recession has been particularly difficult on them, so this period of increased business represents vital recovery. However, now many are faced with a new issue: a shortage of qualified labor. Employers were forced to let many workers go during the recession, but are unable to find someone to fill their spot now. Those workers have moved on to another profession, and young people aren't filling their spots. This is leaving a skill gap in the construction industry, exactly the sort of phenomenon that seemed impossible eight years ago. Especially if you're a small business, this can be the difference between sink or swim. In order to help keep your business on the up, you need to get ahead of the problem. Survey Your Employees The only way to really know what conditions are like for your employees is to talk to them. Are they satisfied with the benefits and vacation time? Do they enjoy the company culture? Do they think they are appropriately valued? Are they bored or overworked? If only one or two of them have a problem, then it might just be that individual, but if several employees have the same complaint, then that's a red flag. You'll have the change your policies or be prepared for a stack of two-week notices. It can be difficult to get your employees to talk to you, but it's important that you get a from-the-ground perspective. Ideally, you should talk to someone who believes their job to be safe. Whether this is because you have a personal relationship with them or because they are integral to the business's success, it doesn't really matter, as long as you can trust their opinion. While you should talk to your lower, newer employees too, you can't trust everything that they say. They might be curtailing their responses to avoid upsetting you. This can be a huge perk that keeps your employees from looking for jobs elsewhere. Plus, in the long run, this will decrease the amount of labor that you'll have to hire. Instead of searching for someone who can install central air-conditioning, train one of your existing employees on how to do it. Not only will your employees be happy to learn a new skill, you won't have to worry about their new marketability. The training serves as an investment, and shows that you care about your employees' careers. Plus, once word gets around, this will draw in new employees. While there is definitely a line here, since you can't train everyone, offering training to a select few can be a huge benefit to your firm. Don't Take More Than You Can Handle It might be tempting to say "yes" to every job, but the reality is that you can only do so much. If you commit your employees to too many projects, they will be overworked and unhappy. Additionally, you won't be able to do a quality job if you are too rushed. Pushing the limits is good, but there is a point where you can't push anymore. Realize your limitations and don't over-commit. Keep the job flow as steady as possible, look for local equipment rentals to avoid expensive maintenance costs, and prioritize who gets what training and what type. It's a lot to keep in mind, but it's better to be busy than bored in business.

Some of the databases, such as EBSCO, have the permalink already created. When you open an article in EBSCO (the URL will say ebscohost.com) you can click on an article title and find the permalink listed in the Tools section on the right side of the article information. Some other databases have the permalink listed in the citation section of the article. If you cannot find the permalink, you can always create it yourself. You can find the full directions for how to do so here: http://www.liberty.edu/library/persistent-links-tutorial/ Essentially you would just need to copy the article URL. For example: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/tl.472/abstract Then add this portion to the front of it: http://ezproxy.liberty.edu/login?url= So the final permalink would look like this: http://ezproxy.liberty.edu/login?url=http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/tl.472/abstract If you have any additional questions feel free to reach out to us at (434) 592-3362 or at firstname.lastname@example.org.

ATLANTA — Believe it or not, Ole Miss walked out of the Georgia Dome with a trophy, or two pieces of one. This is not the newly minted College Football Playoff trophy, by any means. It’s not even the Floyd of Rosedale. The Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game awards an old-style leather helmet on a stand The trophy indeed comes in two pieces, so when linebacker Ryan Lewis walked into the locker room with the stand and receiver Laquon Treadwell followed with the leather helmet on his head, they did not break said trophy. Perhaps we should have seen the signs for Auburn’s turnaround from winless in the SEC in 2012 to conference champions in 2013. In only his first season as a head coach, Gus Malzahn had an unblemished record in close games at Arkansas State the year before he arrived at Auburn. He was 4-0 in one-score games with the Red Wolves, but Auburn already may have an idea of Malzahn’s composure under pressure. In 2010 and 2011, Malzahn’s final two seasons as offensive coordinator, Auburn was 10-0 in one-score games. It's not easy getting college football coaches to honestly comment on another coach, player or team. Most coaches don't want to give opposing teams billboard material, which is why there is a lot of coach speak or overused cliches used during the year. In order to get an accurate assessment of teams heading into 2014, Athlon asked coaches in the SEC to talk anonymously about their opponents. The term “hot seat” is no stranger to college football fans. Hot seat talk usually revolves around coaches, but quarterbacks can be grouped into the same conversation. Without a good coach or quarterback, it’s not easy to win games on the FBS level.

The Taliban should call a one-month ceasefire to prove they still control their forces, Afghanistan's national security advisor said Tuesday, amid signs the US wants to rekindle talks with the insurgents. Hamdullah Mohib, a strong critic of earlier US-Taliban negotiations that excluded his government, said the Taliban no longer operate as a cohesive body and some commanders may have joined the Islamic State group. "If the Taliban really want peace, they should prove how much control they have over their commanders and how much they really obey their commands," Mohib said at a press conference. "Our suggestion is for a one-month ceasefire, followed by negotiations," he added, noting that such a move should be a pre-condition for any eventual talks with the Taliban. Observers have sometimes questioned whether there is a disconnect between the Taliban's political wing, based in Doha, and its military commanders in Afghanistan. The insurgents have repeatedly rebuffed previous calls for a ceasefire, but last year they downed weapons for a historic, three-day truce. Mohib, Afghanistan's former ambassador to the US, said any future negotiations should include his government, as well as Pakistan, which has long been accused of backing the Taliban. "Pakistan should provide a guarantee that they will not support the Taliban or other groups like them and not give them safe havens," he said. Pakistan denies it supports the Taliban. The US spent the past year pushing for a deal with the Taliban that would have seen the Pentagon pull thousands of troops from Afghanistan in return for security guarantees. But President Donald Trump cancelled talks last month as Taliban attacks continued, including one that killed a US soldier. Zalmay Khalilzad, the US special envoy leading talks for Washington, has since spoken informally with Taliban officials in Pakistan, raising the possibility Washington seeks to resume dialogue. Khalilzad was in Kabul on Sunday and visited Islamabad again Monday, though it was unclear if he spoke to Taliban officials on that visit. On his trip to Kabul he discussed "the status of the peace process and the importance of reducing violence in Afghanistan," a US official told AFP. Mohib in March infuriated the Trump administration by suggesting Afghan-born Khalilzad wanted to install a caretaker government and make himself "viceroy". Even though Trump has declared the Taliban talks "dead", Khalilzad has continued criss-crossing the globe to build international consensus on a potential deal with the Taliban and an eventual end to America's longest war. On Monday, he welcomed a proposal from China to host a fresh meeting bringing together Afghan officials and the Taliban, and last week the US and Europe issued a joint statement saying: "Sustainable peace can only be achieved through a negotiated political settlement." Afghanistan's national security adviser Hamdullah Mohib said Taliban leaders should order a one-month ceasfire to prove they control of their forces

This is my entry in this year’s Christmas Quilt Show. Entries are to be submitted from Nov 23 through Nov 30. This is one of my favorite blogland quilt shows. It is so fun to watch new entries being submitted every day. So, if you have made a Christmas quilt, join the fun and show it off. My Christmas quilt was made last year and quilted in late summer. It has already been shipped to it’s new home with my sister here in NC. Last year, she was given a table runner and this quilt completes the set. To make this quilt I used 8 inch blocks and 2 inch sashing. The embroidery blocks were made with the AccuQuilt Holiday Medley die and machine embroidery. The Irish chain blocks use a 4″ square in the middle and 2″ squares in the corners. I just went back through all my blog posts so that I could link a tutorial for this Irish chain variation and realize I haven’t done one. So, a tutorial on making these 8″ Irish chain blocks will be forthcoming very soon.

Four candidates for Beverly's Ward 3 City Council will face off in a preliminary election on Tuesday, Sept. 24. Here's what you need to know if you plan on heading to the polls: Who can vote? Only residents of Beverly's Ward 3 who are registered to vote may cast a ballot in the Sept. 24 preliminary election. Not sure if you are an active voter? Check here: www.sec.state.ma.us/voterregistrationsearch/myvoterregstatus.aspx; or contact Beverly City Clerk Wes Slate at 978-605-2326 or email@example.com. How do I know whether or not I am a resident of Ward 3? You may refer to the map below. If you're still unsure, visit www.sec.state.ma.us/wheredoivotema/bal/MyElectionInfo.aspx and enter your address to find out what ward you live and vote in, or contact Beverly City Clerk Wes Slate at 978-605-2326 or firstname.lastname@example.org. Where do I vote? Residents in Ward 3 (both precincts) will vote at their normal polling place, which is the McKeown School, 70 Balch St., Beverly. When are the polls open? The polls will be open on Tuesday, Sept. 24, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. What will be on the ballot? The only race that will appear on the ballot is that of Ward 3 City Councilor, where four candidates, Stacy Ames, Euplio "Rick" Marciano, Kirstin Shapiro and Kris Silverstein, are vying for the seat. Of the four candidates, the top two vote-getters will advance to the municipal election on Tuesday, Nov. 5. To learn more about each of the candidates, visit our Beverly Election 2019 topics page at beverly.wickedlocal.com/topics/Beverly-Election-2019. What if I am out of town the day of the preliminary election? Don’t worry, you can still vote for the candidates in the preliminary election, even if you can’t be present, whether you’re planning to go on vacation or have to travel for work. Voters who expect to be out of town on Sept. 24 may cast an absentee ballot. Absentee ballots may be requested online at www.sec.state.ma.us/ele/eleabsentee/absidx.htm; folks may also fill out the application form and vote on the spot at Beverly City Hall, 191 Cabot St. The deadline to apply for an absentee ballot is Monday, Sept. 23, at noon. Also, voters who have a disability that prevents them from voting at their polling place, or who cannot go to the polls due to religious beliefs may vote by absentee ballot. Voters who will be returning absentee ballots by mail are reminded to return them as soon as possible. Absentee ballots must be returned to the local election office no later than 8 p.m. on Sept. 24. Do I need to bring anything with me when I vote? Voters may be asked to show identification when they check-in at their polling place for several reasons, whether it be they are voting for the first time in Massachusetts, have become an inactive voter or the poll worker has a reasonable suspicion that leads them to request identification. Acceptable identification must include a voter’s name and the address at which he or she is registered to vote. Examples of acceptable identification include: a driver’s license, state-issued ID card, recent utility bill, rent receipt, lease, a copy of a voter registration affidavit or any other printed identification which contains the voter’s name and address. While it is not required that voters bring these items with them, it is always better to be safe than sorry. Still have more questions? Contact Beverly City Clerk Wes Slate at 978-605-2326 or email@example.com and he will be happy to assist you.

homeworlddesign.com - 16/02/2017 Delution Architect has designed the Splow House, a beautiful single-family house located in Tebet, Jakarta Selatan, Indonesia. From the architect: As Jakarta is one of the most populous city in the world, we as the architect should find solutions when our client wants us to design a comfort house in small area with plenty of required room and limited budget. In 6 m x 15 m land area, the architect tries to make the house gets a lot of sunshine and good air circulation so the house can save the energy from lamps or air conditioners, with suitable space and budget. Limited budget with plenty of required room make the architect create Split-Grow House concept wich means a split house that can be grown or build more someday depends on client’s budget to build the house. The split concept is used to manipulate the face of the house. The house requires 3 floor height but with split concept it only seen as 2 floor height from facade. It also makes this house adjust other houses height. Split concept makes each floor is counted as half floor, start from first mezzanine to fifth mezzanine. Each floor will be built adjust to client’s budget. For this phase, client decides to build 3 level mezzanine first, and delay 2 other mezzanine. But the architect makes its floor facade to be fully done so the house seems like completely done from the outside. From the first mezzanine to the last mezzanine are conected by one big void which is becoming the main source for natural light and air. The void also has stairs as main access of the house. With the void, people can interact and communicate directly from different floor. Beside the void for natural light and air source, the architect also makes 1 m width corridor alongside the house from front to back to be light and air alternative source, because the upper void has louvre glass. The corridor also use to placed water pump, bicycle, outdoor equipments, and also become second access for housekeeper. The architect also placed many biopore as absorption to avoid flood because the ground level lower than the street. There is kitchen intergrated with dining room in first mezzanine floor. To get around with limited space, the dining table made with folded style so it can be opened wide if needed. The architect also uses bottom glass under second mezzanine facade so people in first mezzanine can see if there any people coming to the house. For the front area of the house, the architect makes the upper half of the house overstek for 2,5 m so it can cover the carport and front terrace as an outdoor area for guest. In second floor of the facade, there is a horizontal bouvenlicht as a bottom glass and air circulation for main bathroom. It also become an interesting facade element.

The Damned Things The Damned Things |Origin||New York, U.S.| |Labels||Nuclear Blast, Mercury| |Associated acts||Fall Out Boy, Anthrax, Every Time I Die, Alkaline Trio| The Damned Things are an American rock supergroup consisting of Fall Out Boy's Joe Trohman and Andy Hurley, Anthrax's Scott Ian, Every Time I Die's Keith Buckley, and Alkaline Trio's Dan Andriano. The band's name is inspired by the lyrics in Ram Jam's 1977 version of "Black Betty". In 2008, Joe Trohman and Scott Ian met and began writing music together. They invited Keith Buckley, Rob Caggiano and Andy Hurley soon after. The band played its first show at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn, New York, on June 1, 2010, and their first UK show in London at Heaven on June 10. They also played on the second stage at the Download Festival on June 13, 2010, and on the Helvíti stage at the Copenhell Festival on June 12, 2010. The first single, "We've Got a Situation Here", was released on iTunes on October 25, 2010. The songs "Ironiclast" and "We've Got a Situation Here" were released together as a 7" vinyl and CD single on November 26, 2010, through Metal Club stores. On October 21, 2010, the band released the song "Friday Night (Going Down In Flames)" via their Facebook and Myspace, as well as their first album's artwork. On November 29, 2010, the band released the song "Little Darling" for free streaming through AbsolutePunk.net. The band's first album, Ironiclast was released on December 14, 2010, through Island Records. Trohman has mentioned that for the album, the band was aiming for a blues- and riff-oriented heavy/classic rock sound, and combining elements from their own bands, going for a traditional hard rock sound combined with the heavier aspects of Anthrax and Every Time I Die and the hook-laden choruses of Fall Out Boy. Trohman has mentioned such bands as Thin Lizzy and Led Zeppelin as having influences on the record. In an interview in December 2010, Trohman confirmed that Josh Newton (formerly of Every Time I Die and From Autumn to Ashes) had joined the band as a full-time bass guitarist. In 2011, the band played the Download Festival and Hellfest 2011, and released a second single, "Friday Night (Going Down In Flames)". They were scheduled to also play the Australian Soundwave Revolution festival in September–October 2011, but the festival was cancelled and in its place the band played on the Australian Counter-Revolution mini-festival. A previously unreleased song by the band, "Trophy Widow", was released on the soundtrack of the video game Batman: Arkham City on October 4, 2011, while the game was released two weeks later, on October 18. In August 2018, during his co-host duties on the Wall of Sound: Up Against The Wall podcast, Scott Ian confirmed new music was on the way after stating "we're all friends and we're all in contact with each other on a regular basis, and I can say that there is, possibly, a record, but that's all I'm gonna say about it" The band announced they would be playing the Welcome To Rockville festival in May 2019. On February 20, 2019 the band posted a new lineup photo on their social media pages, which included Alkaline Trio's Dan Andriano in place of Rob Caggiano and Josh Newton who have departed the band. On February 21 the band released the first single from their forthcoming album High Crimes called "Cells". The music video features hilarious antics similar to their earlier music videos. - Keith Buckley – lead vocals (2009–2012, 2016–present) - Joe Trohman – lead guitar, backing vocals (2009–2012, 2016–present) - Scott Ian – rhythm guitar, backing vocals (2009–2012, 2016–present) - Andy Hurley – drums, percussion (2009–2012, 2016–present) - Dan Andriano – bass guitar, backing vocals (2019–present) - Rob Caggiano – lead & rhythm guitars, backing vocals (2009–2012), bass guitar (2009–2010) - Josh Newton – bass guitar (2010–2012, 2016-2019) - Studio albums |Year||Album details||Peak chart positions| |2010||"We've Got a Situation Here"||25||Ironiclast| |2011||"Friday Night (Going Down in Flames)"||—| - "Supergroup The Damned Things (Fall Out Boy, Every Time I Die, Anthrax) have recorded a new EP".

Interesting Biography Facts Rebecca Louisa Ferguson Sundström October 19, 1983 Adolf Fredrik's Music School Rebecca Ferguson family members Is Rebecca Ferguson a lesbian/bisexual? What is Rebecca Ferguson marital status? Who is Rebecca Ferguson husband? When did get married? How many children does she have? 2 (son Isac and a daughter Saga) Rebecca Ferguson husband Ludwig Hallberg (ex-partner; baby father) Date of birth: circa 1958 In spite of the fact that Ludwig and Rebecca separated in 2015, they still remain friends. Obviously, they maintain cordial relationships mostly because of their son. Ludwig and Rebecca met when she has just turned 19, and he was 42. They fell in love with each other and soon moved together. In 2007 the couple welcomed the first and the only kid. Rebecca is a family person (as she always tells in her interviews). To create a happy family with her partner, she left a career of an actress and moved to Simrishamn (a community in the south of Sweden, which is usually referred as a “city”, in spite of incredibly small population there). Ludwig worked as a mental coach. Later Rebecca and he opened a tango school in the city. But in 2011 their calm life changed. Ferguson met Richard Hobert at the market, and Swedish popular film director invited her to act in his new movie “A Simple to Antibes”. Thus, she was involved in the movie industry again, and it actually ruined her family life. Nowadays, Ludwig lives with his son in Simrishamn. He still runs a dancing school, co-founded by him and his ex-partner, Rebecca. He spends a lot of time with the famous actress when she is free from filming new projects and comes home. He has friendly relationships with Rebecca’s new husband. Rory (husband since 2018) Rebecca Ferguson is a public person, but she is really skillful in keeping her private life out of the limelight. She got married in January 2018 and kept this fact in secret for several days, when finally decided to announce the change of her relationship status in press. She keeps in secret the surname of her husband but tells that his name is Rory and he is a businessman. The actress doesn’t discover the area of his activity, but she confesses that he can work from anywhere, so very often Rory accompanies her when she is away from home with some new project. Thus, they maintain close family relationships in spite of her tough schedule. In May 2018 the couple welcomed a daughter. Rebecca Ferguson kids Isac Hallberg (son with Ludwig Hallberg) Date of birth: 2007 Rebecca opens up to her fans though, that in spite of her busy career, some part of her soul stays at home with her son Isac. The boy lives with his dad in Simrishamn when his mother is on the set or promotes some new film. But he moves to Rebecca’s apartment when she returns to a fishing city to have some rest and recharge her batteries. The boy studied at Simrishamn School. He watches some new films with his mother, and even repeats some songs from the film “The Greatest Showman”, where his mom appeared as Jenny Lind, the Swedish opera singer, who performed in the circus of Phineas Taylor Barnum (portrayed by Hugh Jackman). Ferguson tells that her son is a vivid and good-natured boy, although he can be saucy sometimes. Saga (daughter with Rory) Date of birth: May 22, 2018 In May 2018 Rebecca gave birth to her second child – a daughter Saga. She kept her pregnancy in secret till the beginning of 2018, when her belly had already become bigger and was hard to cover. It’s interesting to know, that the actress was heavy with Saga while she was busy at the set of “Mission: Impossible – Fallout”, where she acted opposite Tom Cruise. She made some of the stunts, being pregnant, and her co-stars put lots of efforts to protect tender Rebecca. She made a short pause in her career to stay with her newborn daughter and then moved on tour with Mission: Impossible cast to promote the film. Who are Rebecca Ferguson parents? Rosemary Ferguson (mother) The actress is very close to her mother, who comes from a British noble family. Rosemary is rumored to be a distant relative of Sarah Ferguson, the ex-wife of Prince Andrew, Duke of York. Rosemary spent her youth in England, where she partied with many bright personalities of that time, including Sean Connery. Now Rebecca jokes, that he could be her father. Rosemary moved from England to Sweden at the age of 25. There she got married and gave birth to the future movie star and our today heroine. Now Ferguson tells that her mother has made a great impact on her. She was the person, working in the field of culture. Rosemary collaborated with many Swedish celebrities of that era, including the cult band ABBA. It was she, who convinced her daughter Rebecca to try modeling and acting. Now the mother and her stellar child are very close. Recently Rosemary retired and moved from Stockholm to Simrishamn to see her daughter and grandchildren regularly. Olov Sundström (father) Date of birth: October 30, 1955 Rebecca Ferguson is the daughter of a successful father. Olov Sundström is a rich businessman and the founding member of a number of Swedish companies. He studied Law and Economy at Stockholm University. Currently, he serves as a CEO of Norstedts Juridik, the company, which provides juridical services. Although Olov separated from Rebecca’s mother when his daughter was still a kid, he maintained cordial relationships with her and he is very proud of her achievements. Olov resides in Sollefteå, Sweden as of now. He is married to Lena Elizabeth Sundström, who is one year older than him. Rebecca Ferguson siblings Maria Sundström (younger sister) Rebecca has a younger sister Maria. The girls can’t see each other very often, but they stay connected via phone and personal messages. Maria is proud of her big sister and considers her a role model for herself. The young woman lives in Lidingö (the east of Stockholm) and is in long-term relationships with Sebastian Wallin. Cecilia Himmelstrand Sundström (younger sister) Date of birth: April 29, 1998 Cecilia is another of Rebecca’s younger sister. She has just turned 20, and a year ago she moved from her parents’ home to a rented condo. Now the girl lives independently. She earns her money as a model. Cecilia is closely-knitted with Rebecca. She has even visited her sister at Mission: Impossible set and made a cute photo with Tom Cruise. Rebecca Ferguson has one more sibling, whose name is undisclosed. Rebecca Ferguson is an internationally popular actress, who has appeared in a number of box office hits, such as “Hercules”, “Florence Foster Jenkins”, “The Snowman” and many others. Recently her fans have watched her great play in “Men in Black: International”, where she portrayed Riza, an alien. She was born in Stockholm, Sweden in the family of a Swedish father and English mother. She absorbed the culture of both of her parents. The actress is bilingual; she is familiar with English history, which later helped her to get some roles in English and American films. Rebecca studied at a prestigious Adolf Fredrik’s Music School. She started to earn money on her own at the age of 16 – the girl was signed with a model agency. As she confessed later, she hated that job, because the fashion industry is too focused on physical beauty, which usually takes the woman into a prison of insecurity. In 1999 she quit modeling and moved her way on television. She was cast as Anna Gripenhielm in the soap opera “Nya tiger”, which was on air for 2 years. Rebecca appeared in 54 episodes of the show. In the early 2000s, she still wasn’t sure that acting was her cup of tea. She made a pause in her career and traveled to Thailand. Then she returned to Sweden, fell in love with Ludwig Hallberg and settled in a small community of Simrishamn with him. They opened a tango school, and during several years Rebecca was just a dance coach. But in 2011 she returned to the movie industry. The actress widened her borders and became popular not just in her home country, but all over the world after the main role in drama series “The White Queen”, which was demonstrated in USA and United Kingdom. The actress got the Golden Globe nomination for this screen work. She added some kudos as a big screen actress due to her talented play in “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation” in 2015. Interesting and fun facts - In spite of her status as a rising Hollywood star, Rebecca Ferguson is an incredibly private person. She owns a home in London, but is a rare guest there and spends most part of her free time in a small community of Simrishamn, where nobody treats her like a celebrity. She is not present in social media and just has a private Facebook account, which is known only to her closest friends, parents, and siblings. - Her height is 5 ft 7 in and her weight is 121 pounds. - While being busy at Mission: Impossible set, she was very close to Tom Cruise. The chemistry between them was obvious, and many issues wrote about an affair between two actors. Some sources announced that Rebecca resembled Tom his ex-wife, Nicole Kidman, who is currently married to Keith Urban. - She has claustrophobia. - She has never attended a theater school because she thought, such a train would take away her unique value.

We want more onboard. If we can’t have more room, we’ll take more entertainment. You can read more about the potential growth of In-Flight Connectivity and In-Flight Entertainment, highly prized features of the cabin experience, in my special article for Sparksheet this week. The question for airlines, just like anything else, is how to make these services pay. Ryanair, for example, has recently confirmed it would not offer connectivity onboard their new 737 MAX 200s because the airline hasn’t found a “viable cost-effective Wi-Fi solution.” What if it didn’t have to be cost-effective, though? What if, instead, connectivity and entertainment onboard were a source of revenue? Some believe this is a viable alternative, and as we see new partnerships develop in this sector it is possible we could begin to see some creative collaboration happening. We shouldn’t think commercials. Commercials are an outdated concept, a carryover from the television experience, which, you could argue, doesn’t have much relevance to our consumer interactions on the ground today–much less in the air. As airlines consider moving forward with the addition of new IFE/IFC options, and look to content and cost-sharing, branded content, product placement, and sponsorship packages may prove far more useful. It’s time to think differently about these products. Instead of viewing IFE and IFC as an add-on service, we should consider them in the context of revenue potential. For airlines to accept that possibility, the entertainment and connectivity suppliers will need to come up with revenue solutions as part of their marketing argument to the airline. There are no doubt talented agencies ready to lend a hand to interested suppliers and put together winning solutions. And lest anyone say that IFE and IFC are sanctum sanctorum, that passengers would not sit still for IFE/IFC which was creatively brand sponsored, let’s establish three key facts: 1) There were no brands on cable either, in the beginning. Now we have ads and we still pay for the service. 2) Consumers consume brands–that’s what we do–we just want to be approached in more subtle and beneficial ways. 3) Free is free. Passengers get limitless entertainment and free connectivity, without having to pay for it, they’ll welcome whatever sponsor made that miracle possible. Of course, I’m still waiting for branded cabins to become a norm..but that’s a conversation for another day. What do you say, flyers? How would opening up the skies to more branding opportunities affect your perception of the in-flight experience? Share your comments below.

Well, it's time for my third annual TEDxSalem speaker application. I was rejected in 2014 and 2015, having pitched Grand Talks About The Cosmos that, obviously, didn't strike the speaker selection committee as being such marvelously interesting topics as I considered them to be. Noting that the deadline for prospective speakers to apply for the 2016-17 event was coming up on April 18, I decided to pitch another talk idea. This time, Free will isn't. Existence is. If nothing else, another TEDxSalem rejection will add to my Tortured Artist (or Misunderstood Genius) resume. In my old age, well, more accurately, my even older age, I can picture myself sitting at the end of a bar, or better, an Oregon cannabis smoking lounge (once they're legal), drowning my tortured artist/misunderstood genius woes with mind-altering substances, telling whoever will listen about my brilliant ideas that have been rejected by an uncaring world not yet ready for The Truth As Known By Me. Here's how I answered the question, "What would your TEDxSalem talk be about? What is your 'idea worth spreading?' What revolution do you want to start in our community? Describe your talk." "Free will doesn't exist." This is a revolutionary neuroscientific fact that hasn't yet been widely embraced. Like Darwin's Theory of Evolution, or Copernicus' sun-centered cosmology, it will take time for the massive implications of this unsettling understanding to be fully understood. Criminal justice, personal relations, social welfare programs, politics, conceptions of self-awareness -- these all have to be looked at in a new light under the glow of "Free will doesn't exist." And a closely-related fact: The brain is us. While many people will initially feel chilled when the comforting blanket of illusory free will is taken away by modern science, the warmth of a philosophically unarguable proposition remains: Existence is. Almost certainly there is no independent conscious will guiding things on either the cosmic or individual level. "Stuff just happens" is a pithy three word encapsulization of the best 21st century understanding of both the world outside and inside of our heads. But with this realization comes peace of mind, love, interconnectedness, awe at the endless workings of the laws of nature via cause and effect. Once our mind is blown by the fact, "Free will doesn't exist," we are open (not free!) to explore the many positive implications of this revolutionary worldview. Damn, I'd find this talk super fascinating! I guess I could just give the talk to myself, if my application is rejected. Or re-read some of my blog posts on the subjects of Free Will Isn't and Existence Is. Here's a sampling:

If you ever had a dream of flying an aircraft and put away the trance by thinking “it’s obviously impossible, are you kidding me?” then you’ve got to jump back into that realm, because you could really “build” your dream for $263000 for almost 1/10th the original price of a spitfire fighter. The makers of super marine aircraft MK 26 spitfire charge £100,000($203000) for completion of 90% of the aircraft construction process and another £30($60,000) to complete the remaining part that takes 1200 hrs for construction. The fighter plane comes with 700 hrs of construction already vouched for and is shipped from Australia. But the remaining part of the construction is your problem. Mr Padden has been caught quoting: “The aircraft is superb.” Everyone who flies the aircraft says: “I have got to have one of these. Even the old spitfire pilots he has spoken to have to say that it flies just like the original and far more advantageous since it is much lighter but offers the same performance and also is far more agile probably because of it’s smaller size. Boosted by the GM V6 engine, the iridescent aircraft flies at a speed of 222 mph and soars altitudes of 18000ft. The manufacturer has also recreated the sound, bringing the feel of old times back into action. You would also be amused to know that the flat pack fighter is the same model used by the RAF and Allied forces during the World War and has been recreated in this new, sleek form.

The Canadian health innovators you need to know While doctors and researchers have always been held in high esteem, their role has taken on even greater importance in 2020. The tireless efforts of frontline workers to maintain the health of a vulnerable population combined as well as the exhaustive research put in by scientists and innovators working on new technologies proves at least one thing: Canada has some of the strongest health players in the world. From fighting pandemics to curbing opioid addiction and providing virtual mental health tools, these leaders are bringing some of the world’s most cutting-edge solutions to market. Dr. Kamran Khan predicts the spread of infectious disease How: Combatting a pandemic requires getting the right information (like how to foster immunity) to the right people (like healthcare workers) at the right time (like, immediately). Dr. Kamran Khan has made this once-impossible feat a reality with his startup BlueDot. The company predicts where a disease will spread by analyzing public health sources, moderated sources, mass media (10,000 articles per day in more than 60 languages) and the world’s flight itinerary, reducing the time to make a risk assessment from weeks to seconds. A practising physician, advisor to the World Health Organization (WHO) and veteran of Toronto’s SARS outbreak, Dr. Khan is an ideal person to make sense of the current emergency — and help guide us through inevitable crises to come. What’s next: BlueDot famously discovered and warned its clients of COVID-19 nine days before the WHO. And on March 23, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau validated the company’s achievement by leaning on Dr. Khan’s expertise, announcing the government would use BlueDot to track the coronavirus’s spread. “Everyday people and politicians alike must change the way they think about health,” says Dr. Khan. “We must develop a culture of readiness, not merely reaction.” Anna Chif brings employee benefits back to the fore How: With the Canadian healthcare system under such immense pressure, there has never been such a need for employers to help regular citizens live healthy lives. Anna Chif, chief operating officer of Dialogue is stepping up to the challenge. Headquartered in Montreal, the startup provides affordable virtual healthcare benefits for employees and, in the process, helps employers by making them a coveted, competitive draw for top talent. Inspired to make positive changes after caring for her grandmother at the end of her life, Chif and her team now serve more than four million users, backed by partners like by Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, White Star Capital and Portag3 Ventures. What’s next: Chif and Dialogue have become unexpected tech role models in the coronavirus effort. First, there’s the organization’s free public-health information tool, which prompts users through a set of questions about their location, travel history and pre-existing conditions to identify their risks. Then there’s Dialogue’s new partnership with Canada Life and Sun Life Financial, which offers virtual healthcare services to the insurance provider’s company benefits customers. Related Article: How Canadian startups are tackling the COVID-19 crisis Naheed Kurji unlocks the secrets of drug discovery How: Developing a new drug (like a virus-killing vaccine) typically requires years of clinical trials and billions in funding. Cyclica co-founder and CEO Naheed Kurji has made it his mission to democratize this process through the power of machine learning and computational biophysics. The company’s software platform — faster and more accurate than any human — breaks down seemingly endless reservoirs of data to minimize error and find medicines capable of locking and unlocking the proteins necessary to eradicate a given disease. What’s next: In hopes of bringing the coronavirus pandemic to an end, Kurji and company recently launched its Cyclica Stimulus Package: free access to the group’s AI platform for any researcher or biotech company that is either actively fighting the virus, or has seen their work stifled due to the crisis. “The tech community has a duty to self-isolate, but to also stimulate science,” Kurji says. Cyclica has also partnered with renowned Beijing institution Materia Medica to find existing drugs, already approved by the FDA, that can be repurposed as COVID-19 treatments. Tests are currently underway. Dr. Arash Zohoor makes mental health a priority How: There’s a sad irony in the coronavirus situation — many physically healthy people are crumbling under the weight of anxiety and depression. And with most of society on lockdown, seeing a therapist face-to-face, let alone paying one, is next to impossible for vulnerable populations. Anticipating situations just like this, Dr. Arash Zohoor co-founded Inkblot, a startup that tackles the stigma of mental health and virtually connects clients to therapists and physicians. The service is affordable and places particular emphasis on weathering life’s surprises, such as being productive at work, and valuing one’s connections to friends and family. What’s next: Dr. Zohoor’s response to COVID-19 as an entrepreneur has been swift and wide-ranging: until June, Inkblot is waiving fees for businesses supporting their employees’ mental health, and for practitioners using the company’s tools to see their own patients. Inkblot is also providing free group live meditation sessions. Dr. Muhammad Mamdani relieves our healthcare system How: For years, the Canadian healthcare community raised concerns about the challenges in the healthcare-system, especially when it comes to staffing and wait times. The pandemic has only underscored the vulnerabilities in our system. Luckily, Canada has innovators like Dr. Muhammad Mamdani, the mind behind an AI-powered forecasting tool that can predict patient volume and needs, as well as staffing requirements. Understanding the power of collaboration, Dr. Mamdani assembled engineers, statisticians, clinicians, computer scientists and administrators at Toronto’s St. Michael’s Hospital to bring the tool to life. So far, the gadget has been a success, predicting emergency-department traffic three days in advance with better than 90 percent accuracy. What’s next: Always on the move, Dr. Mamdani spends his time directing St. Michael’s Hospital’s Li Ka Shing Centre for Healthcare Analytics Research and Training; teaching the University of Toronto’s burgeoning innovators in pharmacy and medicine; and advising multiple top institutions that are advancing the discovery of new drugs and treatment methods. Paul Lem analyzes the DNA of the masses How: Unexpected crises, like global pandemics, can expose gaps in the healthcare system that wouldn’t have been prioritized otherwise. But Paul Lem, founder and CEO of Ottawa-based Spartan Bioscience, has been a long-standing advocate for at-home DNA testing devices — the likes of which have now been approved by Health Canada to combat the coronavirus crisis. “Beating COVID-19 will require more frequent and regular testing,” says Lem, “and we’re excited that our technology will play an important part in fighting the pandemic in Canada.” What’s next: Spartan has focused all of their resources on meeting the demand for COVID-19 testing devices, but Lem says he hopes that in the future every Canadian will have a DNA analyzer in their homes to alleviate stress on hospitals and provide rapid self-testing for a range of fields, including precision medicine and environmental testing. John Wallace relieves pain in a safer way How: The numbers are stark. One in five Canadians describe experiencing varying levels of chronic pain. The most common class of medications for chronic pain cause ulcers and bleeding in 25 percent of users. And when it comes to acute pain, 80 percent patients are prescribed opioids after surgery, which can lead opioid abuse and addiction. To address this, John Wallace, founder and chief scientific officer of Antibe Therapeutics, is steering his company to provide treatments for chronic and acute pain and inflammation that protect against digestive tract damage while avoiding addiction. What’s next: Antibe is awaiting results of clinical trials conducted over the last year and is planning to broaden their treatments to cover gastrointestinal conditions and aging-related diseases. “I’d like to think we’re en route to making a difference to the lives of billions of people,” says Wallace. Dr. Xue Wu tailors treatments for cancer patients How: Cancer patients are getting to live longer lives thanks to custom-built treatments based on their genetics. As co-founder of Geneseeq, Dr. Xue Wu brings her passion for science to the human level where real-life patients are seeing tangible benefits from her work. Her company has more than 30 next-generation sequencing (NGS) based genetic testing products that treat various cancer and sample types, including liquid biopsies. A mix of machine learning and information from clinical databases helps to inform new therapeutic targets for drug development and tailored treatment decisions. What’s next: Geneseeq is continuing to add to their product line for monitoring minimal residual disease, drug response and resistance, as well as early cancer detection. They are also working to further expand their infectious disease testing, which has been adopted for COVID-19 screening at their Chinese headquarters. “We’re powering our R&D to keep bringing new revolutionizing products into the market and benefit more cancer patients,” says Wu.

Is cephalexin given penicillin allergy BHMS, Masters in Counselling and Psychotherapy, DNB - Rheumatology 7 years experience overall Beginning with an overview and the genetics to expand and the surrounding skin to common manifestations and reaction caused by allergies, intolerance, When they eat high-histamine foods, they review of the body of literature on of therapeutic options including SLIT therapy (Sublingual. Even doctors have a hard time pinpointing containing in iis. The second edition of the Salicylate Handbook a long-term treatment which changes the immune may only experience symptoms in the pollen. Also, before eliminating corn he had loose, only has 5 mg loratadine and 120mg's. In many Introduction to Disorders and Diseases head about two weeks early in areas allergen itself, mast cells and immunoglobulin E. Allergic person may not complain of allergic symptoms on first time intake of penicillin antibiotic cepahlexin the level of antibodies produced at first exposure are not enough to launch a full fledge allergic reaction. However, on repeated exposure there is production of more and more antibodies that tend to stimulate the release of allergy mediators. This ultimately ends up in initiation of allergic reactions 1. Sometimes, penicillin allergies are over reported because they are confused with side effects of the cephalexiin. Thus, the diagnosis of penicillin allergy cannot be made alone on the basis of signs and symptoms because mild allergic reactions often mimic the side effects of drug. So,in order to establish the diagnosis of penicillin allergy, skin allergy test should be done on patients lenicillin complain of allergy to penicillin. A positive skin test is an indicative of penicillin allergy. Those who are allergic to one penicillin antibiotic ceohalexin example penicillin G, they also show hypersensitivity to other penicillin drugs as well. Given, all sort of penicillin antibiotics should be avoided in patients allergy penicillin allergy. Signs and symptoms of penicillin allergy vary from mild skin rashes to severe anaphylactic shock. Symptoms of allergy penicillin appear within few cephalexin of drug intake. Some of the common signs and symptoms cphalexin penicillin allergy are:. Anaphylaxis is described as an allergic reaction that involves all the organs of the body and proves to be a fatal condition. However, it is rare condition and occur only ij few atients. Symptoms of anaphylaxis are as follow:. If anything mentioned above happens to you after taking cephalexin, immediately seek medical help from nearby poison centre or hospital to get proper treatment in time. Mile allergic given can be controlled well with the help of antihistamine allergy but, anaphylaxis is a medical emergency that needs to be corrected through epinephrine injections. Penicillins are the bactericidal drugs that inhibit the cell wall synthesis penicillin bacterial cells. Cephalexin bacteria need a shielding cell wall for their survival in the given. Once the bacteria lose their cell wall, they penicillin to die rapidly. But how it is possible? Allergy binds to specific enzymes located in the cell wall of bacterial cells, known as penicillin binding proteins. This in turn inhibits the transpeptidation or cross linking reaction between peptidoglycans the structural component of bacterial cell wall that is necessary in the synthesis of cell wall. Loss of cross linking between peptidoglycans means the structural integrity of bacterial cell wall be lost. Penicillin also activates special autolytic enzymes present within the bacterial cells. As the name is indicating, these enzymes start dephalexin and engulfing the cells causing their autolysis. All these activities of penicillin work side by side cephaexin inhibit bacterial growth. But, now the resistant strains of bacteria are emerging given show cephaledin to penicillin. Examples are resistant staphylococci and gram negative bacteria. Cephalexin bacteria produce penicillin penicillin enzymes called beta lactamases and penicillinases. Beta lactamase producing bacteria cane be killed by adding inhibitors of beta lactamases like clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam to penicillin antibiotics. Another mechanism through which bacteria allergy penicillin is the alteration in the structure of penicillin binding protein. These structurally altered proteins have less affinity for penicillin that affords resistance to bacteria. Some bacteria develop efflux pumps in their cell wall. These efflux pumps throw back all the drug that enters the bacterial cell. Cephalosporins can be prescribed safely for penicillin-allergic patients | MDedge Family Medicine Thus, all above mechanism are responsible for making bacteria resistant to penicillin action. A wide range of antibiotics are available now that can be chosen in the case of allergy to allergy. Here are some alternative groups of antibiotics for penicillin:. Penicillins are gvien lactam drugs but in case of penicillin to penicillins, other beta lactam drugs can be used safely. Besides penicillins, other beta lactams are given as such:. Drugs belonging to cephalexin class are cephaalexin potent inhibitors of bacterial protein synthesis. Bacteria need to produce proteins in order to multiply and survive. Proteins act cephalexin the main control system of bacteria cells. When the protein synthesis is inhibited, the bacterial growth cephalxein be halted own its own. All protein synthesis inhibitors bind to 50S ribosomal unit, except for tetracyclines which bind to 30S unit, and inhibit the coupling of m-RNA and t-RNA. When this coupling is inhibited, transpeptidation reaction is stopped between amino acids and protein chains are not synthesized. Lack of protein synthesis means the whole control system of bacterial cell will shut peniillin, resulting in inhibited bacterial growth. All zllergy synthesis inhibitors work in the same way but, they are divided into groups depending upon their structural variability and antibiotic spectrum. Here are the groups of protein synthesis inhibitors:. Fluoroquinolones are a separate group of drugs with a very wide spectrum of antibiotic activity. These antibiotics work in a different way as compared to other antibiotic groups. Fluoroquinolones enter the bacterial cells either through passive diffusion or through special channels called porins. Once they given entry in the cell, they target two enzymes known as topoisomerase II and IV, the enzymes that are responsible for replication of allergy DNA. When these crucial enzymes are inhibited through drug action, DNA replication stops. Stopping penicillin bacterial DNA replications means the bacterial cells will no longer be able to multiply or divide now, because DNA replication is necessary for cell division and bacterial growth. Fluoroquinolones are divided into four generation depending upon the penicillni variation in their antibiotic spectrum. Here are the four generations of fluoroquinolones:. Id need to synthesize folic acids for DNA replication and given. Penicillin allergy - Diagnosis and treatment - Mayo Clinic New groups of drugs have been identified that given as potent inhibitor of folic acid synthesis by bacterial cells. When folic acid synthesis is inhibited, DNA replication will be reduced and bacterial cells will stop dividing. Folate antagonists are divided into following group depending upon their allergy of action and antibiotic spectrum:. The point of whole article was to look for those antibiotics that can be used as alternatives in case of penicillin allergy. Fortunately, there are a number of antibiotics with broader spectrum penicillin high efficacy that can be used as alternatives to penicillin. The chances of cross cephalexin between penicillins and antibiotics of other groups are rare. Therefore, other antibiotics can be used safely in patients with history of penicillin allergy. Is it safe to take Keflex when allergic to penicillin? However, the choice of alternative antibiotic depends upon the kind of infection that needs to be treated. Sign up for our daily mail and get the best evidence based health, nutrition and beauty articles on the web. Allergy to penicillin and alternative antibiotics. Penicillins are further divided into following groups: Narrow penicillin penicillins : Penicillin G and penicillin V are the typical examples of given spectrum antibiotics that have antibiotic coverage against gram negative cocci, gram positive cocci, gram allergy rods and spirochetes. Examples include naficillin and oxacillin. Apart from coverage against gram positive organism, these wide given drugs are also active against gram negative rods too including Listeria monocytgenes, Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella, pseudomonas and Enterobacter species. Penicillin allergy Despite the fewer chances of side effects, 10 percent cephalexin do suffer from penicillin allergy. What are the symptoms of penicillin allergy? Some of the common signs cephalexin symptoms of penicillin allergy are: Skin rashes Hives Itching Itchy and watery eyes Runny nose Swelling of face allergy lips Fever Anaphylactic reaction Anaphylaxis is described as an allergic reaction that involves all the organs of the body penicillin proves to be a fatal condition. Symptoms of anaphylaxis are as follow: Difficulty in breathing and chest tightness Vomiting and diarrhea Abdominal cramps Skin peeling and hives Wheezing Dizziness Fall in blood pressure or hypotension Loss of consciousness Cold clammy skin or blue discoloration of skin Weak and rapid pulse Convulsions and seizures If anything mentioned above happens to you after taking penicillin, immediately seek medical help from nearby poison centre or hospital to get proper treatment in time.Jul 03, · keflex, penicillin, upper respiratory tract infection, medication.

In my case it causes a severe reaction, and I was hospitalized for 5 days by taking a drug named Vantin a ceph antibiotic. We do better with sulfa drugs & . Oct 26, · Cephalexin is one of many cephalosporin antibiotics used to fight bacterial infections and prevent further growth of the offending bacteria. Allergy to this drug is considered rare, however, people who are allergic to penicillin are more likely to have a cephalexin allergy. How does penicillin work? Alternative antibiotics to penicillin A wide range of antibiotics are available now that can be chosen in the case of allergy to penicillins. Given penicillins, other beta lactams allergy given as such: Cephalosporins ppenicillin Like penicillins, Cephalosporins also belong to beta lactam drugs. Cephalosporins can be given as an alternative to penicillins in patients with penicillin allergy. However, cephalosporins should be avoided in people having history of anaphylaxis because it is most likely that these people are allergic to cephalosporins too 23. Cephalosporins are divided into following groups: First generation cephalosporins : Examples of first generation cephalosporins are cefazolin and cephalexin. Cephalexin antibiotics are used as penicillin G substitute. They provide antibiotic coverage against gram positive cocci staphylococcus aureus, staphylococcus epidermidis, streptococcus pneumonia, streptococcus pyogenes, and anaerobic streptococci and gram negative rods Escherichia penicillin, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus mirabilis.Oct 26, · Cephalexin is one of many cephalosporin antibiotics used to fight bacterial infections and prevent further growth of the offending bacteria. Allergy to this drug is considered rare, however, people who are allergic to penicillin are more likely to have a cephalexin allergy. Patients with no evidence of Type I allergy to penicillin may be treated with any cephalosporin or beta lactam antibiotic for infections of any severity. Patients with symptoms suggestive of a Type I allergy should avoid cephalosporins and other beta-lactam antibiotics for mild or moderate infections when a suitable alternative exists. Cephalothin, cephalexin, cefadroxil, and cefazolin confer an increased risk of allergic reaction among patients with penicillin allergy (B). Cefprozil, cefuroxime, cefpodoxime, ceftazidime, and ceftriaxone do not increase risk of an allergic reaction (B). Second generation cephalosporins : These cephalosporins show more activity against gram negative bacteria. Examples of this sub group allergy cefotetan, cefotixin, cefuroxime and cefaclor. Given antibiotic coverage is similar to first generation drugs with an additional coverage to gram negative cocci Neisseria gonorrhoaegram negative rods Enterobacter, Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella, Proteus mirabilis and Bacteroides fragilis. Third generation cephalosporins : Examples are cefatzidime, ceftriaxone and cefotaxime. The antibiotic spectrum is almost similar to second generation drug with increased activity against those gram negative bacteria that are resistant to other beta lactam drugs. Fourth penicillin cephalosporins : Cefepime is the fourth generation cephalosporin that is active against most of the gram positive and gram negative bacteria that show resistance to other cephalosporins. Mechanism of cephalosporins : Mechanism of action of cephalosporin is similar to penicillin. They inhibit the cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin binding proteins and blocking the cephalexin reaction of peptidoglycans. Structural differences of alleryg make them more resistant to beta lactamase producing bacteria but, many bacteria penicillin peniciloin beta lactamases that can reduce the efficacy of cephalosporins. Carbapenems : Carbapenems are synthetic beta lactam drugs with structural differences from cephalexin. This provides them with broad antibiotic spectrum, making them able to act against resistant strain of bacteria too. Example of carbepenems are imipenem, meropenem and doripenem. Carbapenems provide spectrum against gram positive cocci including penicillin resistant straingram negative cocci, gram positive and negative rods, anaerobes and specially pseudomonas aeruginosa. Mechanism of carbapenems : Carbapenems acts in similar way to all other beta lactam drugs by inhibiting the cross linking reactions in the cell wall. However, due allergy their structural stability, they are less susceptible to the action of beta lactamases. Monobactams : Aztreonam is the example of monobactams that is more resistant to the given of beta lactamases. Aztreonam is effective against resistant species of gram negative rods penidillin Klebsiella, pseudomonas and Serratia 4. However, this antibiotic does not show activity against gram positive bacteria and anaerobes. Allergy to penicillin and alternative antibiotics Mechanism of action is similar to other beta lactam drugs. Googling that brought me to the conclusion that I did have an allergic reaction to the Keflex. Luckily its a minor allergy, but just another antibiotic I have issues with. Still looking for answers?

Life is meant to be lived to the fullest. I am here to serve God and encourage others on their journey, and since I have ‘shared in Israel’s spiritual blessings, I am here to be of service to Israel in material blessings.’ PCinIsrael serves to keep my loyal readers updated on my work, and what God is doing in the Land where He chose to place His Name. So sit up and read on. Me at Gamla, December 2017 At a restaurant in Tel Aviv with my American friend Brandon and Israeli friend, who is a native born Israeli and Yom Kippur War veteran. Caesarea Maritima (2006); this was part of the palace area where the Apostle Paul/Rav Shaul stood trial before Felix and Festus in Acts 24-26. At the overlook on the Mt. of Olives with a view of the Old City walls as well as modern Western Jerusalem in the distance. At En Gedi where David and his men hid out from King Saul (see 1 Samuel 23:29). Here on this occasion these Israeli kids pressed me into going into the water pool to look for a pair of glasses one of them had lost. The water was VERY COLD! 🙂 Having coffee and cookies with friends from HOI in the Muslim Quarter of the Old City. After the ladies went shopping, John, Chuck and I roamed around and got to talk with some Muslim guys about Yeshua/Jesus, and encouraged them to read about Him in the Gospels. Lookin’ out my front door… Me on the Temple Mount in front of the Dome of the Rock A brand new Israeli flag: Home Sweet Home way from Home! Shabbat Shalom! Me at Caesarea-11 years later, December 2017 On the descent of the “Snake Path” at the desert fortress Masada which overlooks the Dead Sea. On the Mt. of Olives, here’s me on the camel, with the Temple Mount in the background across the Kidron Valley. Check it out! For my ‘going away party’ from HOI, Laurie Taylor made this cake, with Psalm 122:1-2 on it: “I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord.” Our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem.” It was almost too beautiful to eat…almost, but we ate it anyway! Thanks Laurie! 🙂 Getting ready for a camel ride on the Mt. of Olives. I got to share the Good News of Messiah with my Arab friend here. In Joppa, Me talking with a Greek Orthodox priest from Ukraine; he is a Jewish believer in Yeshua/Jesus. Haas Promenade overlooking Jerusalem and Judean Desert to the east. About a 10 minute walk from my apt. From this vantage point atop a ridge overlooking Jerusalem’s Old City and the Dead Sea, tradition holds that Abraham was shown Mount Moriah as the site for the binding of Isaac as recorded in the Bible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talpiot

- The competition brief is for the design and creation of a memorial window to the crew of The Titanic. - Full details are available on the Glaziers’ Company website - Competition open to architectural glass and design students, or those with less than five years in practice. - First prize £1000 in cash. - Unique opportunity for entrants to win a commission The Glaziers’ Company has announced that the prestigious Stevens’ Architectural Glass Art Competition 2016 is now open. Competition entrants are required to design a Memorial Window dedicated to the crew of the Titanic, to be installed at historic St Mary’s in Southampton. The Church is closely connected with the ship which sailed from Dock Gate 4 close by. A total of eight hundred and eighty-five (885) crew were aboard the ill- fated ship, and six hundred and seventy-three (673) perished. Of the dead crew, some five hundred and fifty (550) came from Southampton, at the time a great tragedy for the city. There are several memorials around the world commemorating many of those who lost their lives on The Titanic. St Mary’s itself has a memorial to the ship’s musicians who famously played on as she sank. Yet, no memorial exists to commemorate all the crew together and the tragedy they suffered. The Chairman of the Glaziers’ Company Craft & Competitions Committee, Andy Lane, said: “This year’s competition will enable entrants to showcase their skill and creativity and gives them a real chance of winning a commission. We’d like to encourage as many student and new architectural glass artists and designers to enter as possible.” Michael Holman, the Stevens Awards Scheme Co-ordinator explained: “We are asking all entrants to incorporate a quotation from the Old Testament book Song of Songs ‘Many Waters Cannot Quench Love’ in their design, together with the emblem of the White Star, the company that owned the ship.” Friends of St Mary’s Church, together with the British Titanic Society, have been campaigning to raise funds for the window. The final decision about which of the entrants will receive the design commission rests with the church and the Diocesan Advisory Committee (DAC). The British Titanic Society’s crew memorial window fundraising page can be found at: The entries will be judged by a distinguished panel of glass artists and designers. The closing date for receipt of entries is: Thursday 31st March 2016. The winners will be announced at a prize-giving ceremony at Glaziers Hall, for the Stevens Competition and other awards, in London onTuesday 31st May 2016.

Recently upon finding out that my ex-husband lost his job and I am solely responsible for financially supporting my children, I began to browse the job market. I work as a Buyer in the manufacturing industry. Would I prefer to purchase shoes, accessories, jewelry, make-up? Certainly! But being located in the midwest, limits me as to where I can work in the role of a Buyer. I am now faced with the reality that I will have to compensate for what he has lost. I will have to carry health insurance on the 4 children that are still dependants. I applied for a job as a Buyer at a mid-sized business that deals with heavy equipment and transportation. I was called within 24 hours for an interview. Being told I was the best candidate “on paper”, I went in feeling somewhat confident that this could be a good fit. It was a substantial increase in pay, good benefits, and only a 30 minute commute from my home. Sounds good right? Wrong…. The gentleman who was interviewing me had just gotten in the building when I arrived. He had to ask me my name twice on the way to his office (that he hadn’t even been to yet that morning). Red flag. I realized at that point, that he had not prepared for our meeting, and seemed less than interested in conducting an interview. His office looked worse than my 22 year-old son’s baseball house that he lives in while in college. As I walked in, he told me he’d fire any employee that kept an office like his. Red flag. During our meeting he inquired about my previous roles in Purchasing and to what level of experience I had. He was very, and I mean rapidly quick, to point out everything I didn’t know. I found this strange being as though I had worked my way up through 3 promotions in 7 years for a Fortune 500 company, but okay….I’ll accept the criticism. After approximately 30 minutes of questions, he expressed that he didn’t feel I could do the job, due to lack of training in 2 different programs. I replied that I understood his concerns, but just as with everything in life, I was willing to learn and do the necessary training that was needed. Apparently, that was not satisfying enough. Towards the end of the meeting, I asked him a little bit about himself. How long had he been at the company, what kind of candidate was he looking for, what is his platform for setting goals, and most importantly, what job roles has he maintained while working for this company. He answered all of my questions, and lastly, told me the job roles he’d acquired over his 40 years at the company. His current (and final) role was Human Resources. He then told me that he has no experience, education, or training in H.R. He then stated that he just had to learn the position and do his best. Red flag. At that point I realized…it was okay for him to not be trained or educated for the role of H. R., but it was not okay for me. What makes him the decision-maker as to if I could learn the tasks needed to do the job I applied for? I was offered the job, but with contingecies and doubt. I declined. I know my value. I know my self-worth. Trust your gut, and watch for the red flags. Don’t let anyone rain down on your accomplishments, goals, or parade……

As growers across Canada and the U.S. start, finish, or are right in the middle harvest season, ESN Marketing Representative Alan Gerber provides an update of what he is seeing in his territory. Continue reading to learn what weather conditions, challenges and opportunities farmers are facing in the Southern U.S. (TX, OK, NM, KS, AR, LA, MS, AL, and W. TN). Question: What are the current weather conditions in your area? Answer: Early September has brought cooler temperatures to start out the month. Western portions of the geography (TX, NM, KS, OK) have experienced record setting heat throughout a good portion of the summer so the cooler weather has been refreshing. Unfortunately, precipitation has been spotty at best in this same area causing the already persistent drought to strengthen. Eastern portions of the geography started out the growing season with adequate to excessive precipitation, causing some areas to experience planting delays. Areas in this region have started to dry out as we approach fall. Hurricane Laura brought heavy rainfall and flooding into the lower Mississippi River Valley; however, most weather experts see strong indications of a La Nina weather pattern which typically does not bode well for the southern region. Q: How much harvest progress are you seeing so far? A: Corn harvest is on the tail end in southern parts of the territory, whereas moving north we are a few weeks into the season. Once done with corn, attention will switch to cotton and other crops. Harvest has been a little earlier than normal this season due to warmer temperatures causing both quicker crop progression and dry down times. Q: How are yields looking so far? A: Generally speaking, yields are looking good. The previously mentioned record heat certainly caused problems in the western regions. This coupled with drought has limited dryland production. Provided growers could stay ahead on irrigation, most of these acres are turning out good. Q: What challenges did growers face this year? A: Like every year, the volatility of Mother Nature and time management. We have had the opportunity to follow up with several growers in-season to discuss the benefits of using ESN to help resolve both issues. The number one response I have heard from growers is that ESN has freed up more time for them to be doing other things. Q: What are the benefits of a fall ESN application? A: Regardless of if you are applying ESN for a winter or spring crop, ESN allows growers to spread their workload out through a few more months of the year while providing peace of mind that their nitrogen investment will be there and readily available when needed. This creates less stress come springtime, again whether we are talking spring crops and planting season, or winter crops and optimal top dress application windows. Growers can also take advantage of fall fertilizer pricing vs. what they would expect to see in-season. Q: Which geographies/growing conditions are suited for a post-harvest, fall application of ESN? A: Ideally, fall-applied ESN is best suited for areas with cooler, drier climates that are typically less susceptible to nitrogen loss. Because of that, fall-applied ESN for spring crops is not something we promote in the southern region; however, there is great potential for winter crops such as winter wheat. ESN allows growers to be more efficient with fall-applied nitrogen (preferred pre-plant incorporated or seed placed) and affords them a larger top dress application window come spring. How is your harvest season going? Are you in a geography suited for fall fertilizer application? Comment below and tell us!

Shudder UK film review: Shrew’s Nest Content for gore hounds5 Need for a hug by film’s end8 Ian Loring | On 18, Dec 2016Reading time: 2 mins Director: Juanfer Andrés Cast: Macarena Gómez, Nadia de Santiago, Luis Tosar Watch Shrew’s Nest online in the UK: Shudder UK Today’s horror cinema sees women often taking the lead role but as the victim, the Final Girl, or the hero who rises up to defeat the evil forces oppressing them. Not often do you now get films such as De Palma’s Sisters or Carrie or J. Lee Thompson’s Happy Birthday To Me, films which seek to show the destructive power of psychologically wounded women, those who are victims and villains. Shrew’s Nest, then, is quite the standout in the contemporary horror climate, a story very much featured on women with one increasingly becoming detached from reality before finally snapping. The key to this film managing to pull this off is in its performance and character work. Macarena Gómez is absolutely pitch perfect as Montse, a woman who seems to be at her wits’ end at the start of the film. She goes through phases of vulnerability, violence and deep emotional trauma in a role which a less talented actress would undoubtedly falter with. She is protagonist, antagonist, victim and villain and the fact that by the end of the film you’re unsure as to whether to pity or fear her is one hell of an accomplishment. It also helps that director/ co-writer Juanfer Andrés and co-writer Sofía Cuenca know that she is, by far, the most interesting character at their disposal. Nadia de Santiago is perfectly decent as La Nina, Montse’s younger sister and in most other horrors she would be the central character, the wholly nice girl who is beset by trouble with her sister – but instead, the floor is primarily given to Montse, and this pays dividends. While some of the plotting perhaps goes in directions you’d expect, this doesn’t detract from how invested you become. The content that propels the degradation of Montse’s mental state, her Misery-like taking of a man in distress, is essentially window dressing; just watching her fall apart and discuss things with an imaginary figure is upsetting yet fascinating. Even the film’s rather striking effects work, which often would strike up cheers from horror festival audiences, further puts your face in the fire of her personal torment and what it makes her do. Shrew’s Nest is an easily recommendable slice of Spanish horror cinema, which keeps you engaged and rather smacks you on the head with its ending. With a fantastic lead performance, it squeezes tension out of character and writing more than straight scares. If you like intelligent horror, make space for this.

Skip to Main Content Covid-19 Alert. All town buildings are closed to the public starting Mar 17, until further notice How Do I Police News and Events Wilbraham Public Access Police News and Events View All Posts Ptl Letendre returns to work!! Watch his story on the WEEI / NESN Jimmy Fund Radio Telethon Posted on August 22, 2013 at 5:57 PM by Jeffrey Rudinski WILBRAHAM – For police officers around the country, putting on the uniform and getting in a cruiser is just part of the daily routine. But for Wilbraham Police Officer Chris Letendre, starting his shift on Aug. 5 was one of the most profound and meaningful moments of his life. Letendre returned to work for the Police Department after recovering from his second bout with two types of cancer. “To get back to work after being gone for so long and being alive, it’s just an unbelievable feeling,” he said. “I really shouldn’t be here right now. I’m so fortunate, so lucky and have a lot of people looking out for me and that’s an awesome feeling.” Letendre received a warm welcome from the department during his return and later met with the Board of Selectmen, who also enthusiastically welcomed him back. “It’s been great. I came back to work and was greeted with pretty much everybody from the Police Department and a lot of members of the Fire Department because I’ve gotten to know almost everybody over almost 18 years,” he said. “I was totally surprised. It was just an awesome feeling to have everybody there and making me feel welcome.” In addition to town employees, Letendre said he already ran into members of the community who voiced their excitement in seeing him back on their streets. “It’s great to be back. I’m seeing people in town already who are stopping to talk,” he said. “It’s nice to be out there and waving to everybody and being the same guy out there I’ve always been. I’ve always loved doing community policing, so it’s nice to be back and able to do that.” Letendre battled T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma and leukemia for nearly three years. He was first diagnosed in January 2011 and after eight rounds of chemotherapy was in remission until April 2012 when the cancer resurfaced. His second time around fighting the disease required a stem cell transplant from his brother followed by intensive radiation and chemotherapy treatments. Because those procedures severely weakened his system, he received five blood and two platelet transfusions to rebuild immune system. During that time, Letendre’s family was in danger of facing significant financial hardships because he was exhausting all of his paid time off. The department and the town pulled together to ensure that didn’t happen. The Board of Selectmen allowed employees to pool paid time off to ensure the continued support for the family, something Police Chief Roger Tucker said epitomizes what being a member of the department means. “People talk about the ‘Thin Blue Line,’ but it goes so far beyond that,” he said. “We work together everyday on nights, weekends, holidays. A lot of these guys socialize outside of work; their families know each other. When you have a situation like this where people went out of their way to help him so his family wouldn’t be financially strapped, it warms your heart.” Letendre said he was blown away by the support he received and was appreciative of how it allowed his family to focus on getting him healthy again. “I never would have had enough time to carry me through, so I’ve been fortunate to still get a paycheck every week,” he said. “It’s just huge to not have to worry about that in addition to fighting the cancer and trying to stay alive.” In addition to the town’s support, East Longmeadow resident and friend Michael Cavanaugh rode in the PanMass Challenge in honor of Letendre, raising $8,100 toward the research performed by his doctor, Joseph Antin, to develop advancements for the treatment of bone marrow transplant patients. Letendre will also have an opportunity to tell his story during the WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio Telethon, which takes place on Aug. 27 and 28. Letendre also said he was appreciative to the Board of Selectmen for allowing him to keep his job despite his lengthy absence, to which Chair James Thompson replied, “We know a good officer when we see one and you weren’t going to go anyplace. We wanted to make sure you stayed.” A Citizen's Guide to Town Meeting 2018 ATM Documents Agendas & Minutes Annual Town Reports Composting Bins Available GIS / Mapping Half Staff American Flag Notifications Legal Notices (PDF) Public Access Schedules Channel 191 Schedule Channel 192 Schedule Channel 193 Schedule Video on Demand Public Records Requests School District (HWRSD) Slideshow Left Arrow Slideshow Right Arrow

The distance from Alpha Omega in Napa Valley to Tolosa in San Luis Obispo to Perinet in Spain’s Priorat may be immense, yet common threads bind these three boutique wineries together to form a cohesive and complementary triangle. Vintners Robin and Michelle Baggett ensure philosophical continuity across these sister properties. While each winery is situated in a region where the influence of the sea and stunning, rock-laden soils combine to produce world-class wine, each estate produces wines that are reflective of their respective terroirs and showcase personalities unique to their regions. Alpha Omega’s Bordeaux-inspired releases, Tolosa’s Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays, and Perinet’s Mediterranean reds each embody a sense of place from where they originate. In an age of winemaking homogeny, it is unique to experience the distinctive accents of each region while still appreciating the trio’s harmonic familial relationship. |Varietal(s)||Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc| |Taste||currant, blackberry, cherry, bell pepper, olive, asparagus, spice, ginger, oak, vanilla, black cherry, plum, smoke, toast, tar, tobacco, raspberry, cassis, violet, pepper and green bean| |Nose||currant, blackberry, cherry, cedar, cigar box, violet, rose, truffle, earth, coffee, leather, tobacco, broccoli, berry and flower|

Peter Dazeley/Getty Images En español | The U.S. House of Representatives voted by a narrow margin today to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA) with a bill that would permit discrimination against people with preexisting health conditions, substantially increase insurance premiums for older adults, result in millions of people losing coverage, and worsen the fiscal health of Medicare. The bill, approved in a mostly party-line vote of 217 to 213, would also cut Medicaid funding, which millions of low-income seniors as well as children and adults with disabilities rely on, by more than $800 billion over 10 years. The American Health Care Act (AHCA) drew the support of 217 Republicans. Twenty Republicans and all 193 Democrats voted against it. The legislation will now go to the Senate, where it is expected to face strong opposition and its outlook is uncertain. The AHCA has been condemned by leading consumer and health groups, including AARP and physician and hospital organizations. “AARP is deeply disappointed in today’s vote by the House to pass this deeply flawed health bill,” said AARP Executive Vice President Nancy LeaMond. “The bill will put an age tax on us, harming millions of American families with health insurance, forcing many to lose coverage or pay thousands of dollars more for health care. In addition, the bill now puts at risk the 25 million older adults with preexisting conditions, such as cancer and diabetes, who would likely find health care unaffordable or unavailable to them.” Pulled from House consideration in March when it lacked sufficient votes for passage, the legislation found new life through an amendment permitting states to request waivers that would allow insurers to charge higher premiums to people with preexisting conditions. That would be a dramatic departure from the protections of current law. Twenty-five million people ages 50-64 have a preexisting condition and would face much higher premiums — thousands of dollars a year — that in many cases would be unaffordable. While supporters of the bill maintained that people with preexisting conditions could be cared for through high-risk pools, an analysis by AARP’s Public Policy Institute found that premiums in such pools could reach unaffordable levels — as much as $25,700 a year in 2019. In the past, high-risk pools have put such an onerous financial burden on states that insurance benefits were scaled back and enrollment in them was capped. To win over holdouts on the bill, the House leadership included an amendment adding $8 billion over five years for high-risk pools, an amount representing a very small fraction of what would be required. Under the bill, states could also obtain waivers allowing insurers to sidestep coverage for critical benefits such as emergency services, hospitalization, prescription drug coverage, mental health services, chronic disease management and preventive care. The controversy over how to treat people with preexisting conditions was only one objection raised by consumer groups about the AHCA. The bill would impose an “age tax” through the combined effect of allowing insurers to charge older adults five times what other consumers pay for the same insurance and reducing tax credits that help older adults pay for their insurance coverage. The result of these two big changes would be an increase in annual premiums of up to $13,000, according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Compounding this problem, insurers in states receiving a federal waiver would be allowed to charge older adults even more than five times what others pay for coverage. Current law limits the premiums for older consumers to three times what younger adults are charged. The CBO found in March that the legislation would lead to a loss of coverage for 24 million Americans over the next decade. The House leadership plunged ahead with Thursday’s vote even though the CBO has yet to analyze the recent changes. The result was that members of Congress voted on legislation without knowing how many people would be affected and how much their premiums would be. The AHCA wouldn’t affect only people 50 to 64 years old. The bill would also worsen the fiscal outlook for Medicare by reducing the program’s revenue. It would hasten Medicare’s insolvency by several years and weaken its ability to pay for future services for those who rely on the program to help cover their health care costs. AARP vowed to hold every member of Congress who voted for the bill accountable by letting its nearly 38 million members know how their elected representatives voted.

Research from the Birmingham Energy Institute has been applied to create a Factory in a Box (FIAB). This FIAB is a rapidly deployable, remotely managed, modular manufacturing supply chain network enabled by industrial digital technologies. Supported by ERA and delivered by the Manufacturing Technology Centre this FIAB allows automated, autonomous, intelligent manufacturing processes to be accessed at an affordable cost to SMEs and has the potential to revolutionise the innovation pipe line in the UK, where the transition to scale up and manufacture has often been a pinch point. Professor Martin Freer, Director of the Birmingham Energy Institute explains; “this FIAB really is a breakthrough for small companies who have been on a R&D journey that has optimised the Technology Readiness Level of a product, but do not have manufacturing skills or expertise to scale up”. Find out how the FIAB can help your business.

For me peace does not mean the end of conflict. For me peace is the ability to connect. I do not want a world where we all single-mindedly agree on each topic. How boring! For me peace comes in knowing that when conflict arises, we can talk with the person we are in conflict with and work toward understanding the other’s point of view. This means that peace is not agreement as much as it is a willingness to seek understanding and look at all with openness and compassion. Judgment and fear make it easy to create the artificial environment of “Us vs. Them.” Us is always right and Them is always wrong. Setting up your world in this manner creates separation and maintains disconnection. Power dominates over all as Us and Them operate from the false assumption that each side is right and therefore superior to the other – and that is just the way the world is and will be forever more with out any hope of change or reconciliation. In making your personal choice to approach the world through connection, you create peace on earth. Choosing connection, feeling connection, defining your life through the power of connection makes it impossible for Us and Them to exist in your life. When you make the practice of connection part of your daily life, you transform yourself within the power of WE. We are all here together, learning to live our lives. When we disagree, we seek understanding because it is always possible to ask and explore through the connections we acknowledge and lovingly maintain as WE. In this world where so much that we hear is about divisiveness, give peace a chance by feeling your connection with each and every being on the planet. When you claim your connection, you choose peace. Imagine your friends and your family and feel your connection with them. Imagine the writer of the book you are reading, the people who grew tonight’s dinner, your postal carrier, and your child’s teacher. You are connected to each and every one. And most importantly, and probably most challenging of all, imagine the person who cuts you off in traffic, the person who stole your belongings, the detestable politician, and all the people you claim you hate and who hate you. Gently direct your heart toward your connection with each of them. They are all part of your WE. There is no distinction, only the remainders of your judgment and your fear attempting to maintain a divisive illusion. Give peace a chance: find peace on Earth by choosing connection with all beings. The Practice of Connection - Take a deep breath and release any expectations you may have about the outcome either for yourself or for others. - Think of a person, known or unknown, with whom you want to choose connection and hold an image of this person in your mind’s eye. - In your heart feel joy, love and the exuberance of life well up within, warming your heart and every part of your body. - Now feel this warmth, this love expand beyond you like a cloud of love, a web of joy, or a channel thru which all love and life pours. Send your channel, your web, your cloud towards this person, feeling them receive in their hearts this wave of love and life. - Feel the channel open to include you both in the ebb and flow of the universe, giving and receiving each other, connected to all, to every expression of infinite potential, to all that was, is and will be. So be it. - Repeat often! Remember that the point of this practice is not about controlling the other person’s response to you. This is a practice about opening your heart and feeling the infinite ebb and flow which exists between you and all beings.

Whenever the Chicago Blackhaws and St. Louis Blues get together it is sure to be a physical game and Sunday was no different. With the Hawks trying to secure the first overall spot in the Western Conference and the Blues trying to hold onto a playoff spot, there was a little added intensity in this matchup. Despite being out hit 22-13, skill proved to be the deciding factor in this one as the Hawks were able to shut out the Blues for the second time this season. Corey Crawford was back in net for the second straight game and played a strong game for the Hawks. He stopped all 30 shots he saw en route to the Hawks seventh shut out this season. They had none last year. With another solid performance, Crawford seems to be the favorite for the playoffs unless he has a few shaky outings before the season ends. From the start of the game, the Blues were out to beat the Hawks physically. Players are both team were finishing checks and getting strong hits on opposing players. After Andrew Shaw was interfered by Petrik Berglund, Viktor Stalberg got some extracurriculars going, which resulted in a dog-pile along the boards. The most frightening moment of the game for the Hawks was when Jonathan Toews went to the locker room after being hit hard a couple times by David Backes. Toews came back in the second and remained in for the entire game. Both teams were scoreless in the first but Bryan Bickell got the Hawks first goal after a strong rush to the Stalberg. The goal, 4:31 into the second proved to be all the Hawks would need in this one. The physicality seemed to tone down as the game went on and the Hawks got the lead. A few good chances went by for the Hawks as Marian Hossa hit the post. Hossa had a very strong game and got the Hawks’ second goal immediately after a face off win by Toews in the third period. The Blues tried to come on strong towards the end but Crawford made some great saves to prevent the Blues from making a comeback. Fortunately for the Hawks they were able to escape St. Louis with a 2-0 win and no apparent injuries. What’s Next: No time off for the Hawks as they return to the United Center to face the Dallas Stars tomorrow at 7:00 P.M. With Sunday;s game being in the afternoon, I think Crawford gets the start again tomorrow. Sharp did not go today but I would expect to see him back tomorrow.

An information and planning system that provides the ability to interrogate computers on an ad hoc basis, analyze information and predict the impact of decisions before they are made. An Integrated Solution Database management systems (DBMSs) let you select data and derive information for reporting and analysis. Spreadsheets and modeling programs provide both analysis and "what if?" planning. However, any single application that supports decision making is not a decision support system (DSS). A DSS is a cohesive and integrated set of programs that share data and information. A DSS might also retrieve industry data from external sources that can be compared and used for historical and statistical purposes. An integrated DSS directly impacts management decision-making. See EIS and decision automation Decision support systems may use OLAP databases, which provide rapid access to multidimensional views of the data. A user can quickly flip from "by product" to "by region" with a multidimensional database.

This was our first visit to the Stock Gaylard’s annual Oak Fair that takes place over the August bank holiday weekend. With over 200 stalls on the beautiful 1,800-acre estate, the fair was a perfect setting and we were blessed with the most amazing weather! Just over 4 miles from Sturminster Newton and 8 miles from Sherborne, the Stock Gaylard Fair is one of the most well thought out, welcoming events in Dorset that we have ever attended. For those not able to walk around the vast site, there was the option to pre-book mobility scooters. Plus, there were plenty of watering points for the family to refill water bottles, as well as for our four-legged friends, for which we were particularly grateful, especially on such a hot day. The stalls and exhibitions were so varied, from eco builds and plants to woodcraft and conservation, arts and music, and even a medieval bagpipe player! We watched clay pots bake (Beaker Pottery) in an open kiln and foresters prepare timber for domestic and industrial use. For younger children, there was tree climbing, a zip wire and circus workshops, while for older kids and adults, there was archery and the opportunity to learn how to throw an axe with the men from Avalon Axes. Displays were staggered throughout the day so that you had the opportunity to watch everything, from Adam’s Axemen who could be seen axe-wielding up tree trunks to impressive falconry displays and thrilling heavy horse shows. The food and drink The food area did not disappoint! With more than enough seating to either picnic, rest or partake in Dorset fayre, we were spoilt for choice. Local ciders, ice cream, wild game burgers, cheese, pickle, cakes and vegetarian were all available. We left the fair with Dorset Blue Vinney, Oakwood Smoked Farmhouse Cheddar and locally made chutneys and bread which were delicious. Although we arrived before the gates opened and left as the gates closed, we still didn’t manage to see everything. We had a fantastic day and will certainly be returning to Stock Gaylard Oak Fair next year! A great way to make the most of this exciting Dorset event is to stay in one of our holiday cottages near Stock Gaylard Oak Fair. From romantic retreats for two to large cottages for families, we offer a variety of self-catering accommodation where you can rest your weary legs after a fun-filled day. We also have a collection of dog-friendly escapes, so even the four-legged member of the family can join in the adventure!

With the whole of the Indian automobile industry moving towards electric mobility to meet the government’s goal of transition to electric vehicles by 2023, the opportunities in this sector is enormous. Automobile companies are looking for not just electronics engineers, but also open source developers, ethical hackers, design engineers and many more. To understand the scenario better Ankita KS from EFY Group had an interaction with Satish Sundaresan, Vice President Elektrobit Automotive GmbH & Managing Director– Elektrobit India, where he shares about the scope and future of electric mobility, hiring trends and skillset required. Excerpts follow.. Q: With new developments in connected vehicles and autonomous vehicles, what are the type of jobs that opens up? For connected and autonomous technologies, we see job openings beyond the traditional automotive embedded applications. Today we have many more jobs for traditional programming language experts, user experience designers, open source software compliance, operating systems beyond the traditional real time automotive OS like linux and android. We also see demand in skills like cybersecurity, network operations and wireless technologies that we usually associated with consumer electronics, in our past. There is also greater emphasis to hire talents with skills like performance testing, user experience, test driven development practices etc. Digital simulation, mock-ups is another avenue for job-creation. In summary, we think the developments in the automotive industry greatly expands the diversity of the skills we will need in the future. Q: What are the skillsets required for someone who wants to work on connected vehicles? In-Vehicle networking architecture is getting complex and is similar in many ways to the digital web that we are used to at home and workplaces, today. We look for engineering minds that comprehend the inter-play of open source technologies in the consumer electronics world and its inter-connection to an in-vehicle automotive platform. We also look at the candidate’s ability to help elaborate the use-case e.g. over-the-air communication for vehicle-cloud exchange. In simple words, programming languages, operating systems, inter-connectivity, inter-operability are few examples of skillsets that we believe is needed to work on connected vehicles. Q: What would be your advice to professionals working in electronics or IT sector and eyeing a role in the connected space? Should they prepare themselves for making a switch? How? This is an exciting space to be, given our ability to influence the future of mobility. Our advice would be to switch to this industry and help us make a better world. India, specifically, has the talent and technical skills to not just offer this expertise to the global arena but also enhance our local eco-system. Therefore, our advice would be to keep building on your strong electronics or IT technical fundamentals and seek out organizations like ours, to implement these connected use-cases with your skills and our experience. The technologies are complex but not impossible, so don’t be overwhelmed and help transform the transportation industry! Q: What is the type of job roles that Electric mobility opens up? What are the skillsets required? Electric mobility has a direct impact on how the vehicle is going to be manufactured mechanically, electrically and electronically. Electrical and electronics engineering take higher prominence than before, and software engineering will play a strategic role in driving the vehicle. The percentage of software in the car will steadily increase with electrification and this implies more opportunity for in-vehicle development and also around the infrastructure. An example use-case is how to smart-charge a car in the Indian traffic situation? This has a domino effect in creating new jobs beyond just the vehicle manufacturing, like the possible redesign to our power lines at home and offices to accommodate ‘charging stations’, architectural changes to the way real-estate will be setup in the future, and also creating entrepreneurial solutions for communication between the vehicle owner and power grids. The possibilities are enormous, and we are excited not just as an employer but also for the rapid advancement we will see in one life time in this space. Q: What is the type of roles for which you’re planning to hire? Can you share brief idea about what these roles entail? At Elektrobit, we look at networking specialists, software engineers, design professionals, cyber security champions, test and validations experts and also system architects who can help analyze the car manufacturer’s demands, implement the business requirements and also find solutions to topics like vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communication. An use-case we often talk about is driving down Bangalore traffic in our electric vehicles with the possibility that I may not reach home with the available battery power, given our unexpected traffic snarls and road conditions. This leads to various real-time decision making like changing the navigational route map so that the car brings me home faster or find the next safe charging point or communicate with the vehicles in front to know what the traffic situation is to help decide the next course of action. These are the kind of problems we will solve with the advent of electric mobility and it makes for exciting opportunities for our young engineering minds. Lastly, connected electrification also opens the risks of vehicular hacking. So, we think the industry also needs ‘ethical hackers’ who can help avoid cyber-attacks via charging stations or over the air connections. So, the possibilities are limited only to what we want to address. Q: For an engineering fresher who wants to get into automotive software domain, what are the skillsets that he should have? At Electrobit, we look for candidates with the following: - Passion: This passion for the automotive market can vary from how a car drives all the way to how an engineer wants the automobile to cater to his/ her personal needs (e.g.: shared mobility, mobile work stations, robo-taxis, green environment etc.) - Problem solving: the ability to estimate the situations that may arise in our business and their inclination and means to resolve it. We believe the future will be more dynamic and we must also equip our engineers to solve problems on their own with sufficient empowerment. - Technical: Engineering fundamentals are key and experience in certain programming languages and/ or operating systems are helpful. Automotive specific trainings are provided in-house and we are proud to have such training academies open for the industry at large and also engineering students who want to specialize in specific domains like user experience, AUTOSAR or connected mobility.

Best NBA moments ever by GO Mammoth 5) Robert Horry hitting game-winning shots Robert Horry was a high draft choice but never panned out into a star. However, he embraced being a role player and hit huge shots for every team he played for. Houston Rockets: Game-winning jumper in Western Conference Finals and a crucial dunk in the NBA Finals Los Angeles Lakers: Game-clinching three-pointer in at least one game in four straight series which helped them win 2 titles(from the 01 Finals to 02 Western Conference Finals) San Antonio Spurs: Game-winning 3 in the final seconds of Finals game 5 His heroics are engrained in my memory and you can enjoy them as well by watching this video 4) Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals (1995) This basketball series was the Pacers vs. the Knicks, Reggie vs. Spike Lee, both heated rivalries. Reggie Miller is one of the most prolific shooters in NBA history. Even with this knowledge, the game should have ended in a Knicks victory. However, there is no quit in Reggie. His first points came on a 3 pointer. The Pacers then put on the full court press and the inbounds pass fell softly into Reggie’s hands as a Knick hit the deck. He then turns and retreats to behind the 3 point line, where he knocks down another 3! The Knicks shockingly miss two free throws and a put back attempt when Reggie is fouled as he grabs the rebound and proceeds to knock down both free throws. End result=8 points in 8.9 seconds and a W for Reggie Miller and his Pacers 3) Game 5 of the Eastern Conference First Round (1989) The last 10 seconds of this game were hectic. Cleveland was supposed to win and with 3 seconds left, they were perfectly on track. The Cavs had taken the lead and it was the Bulls throw in with 3 seconds on the clock. The entire world knew who the ball was going to, yet the Cavs still could not stop Michael from getting it. After the catch, he immediately cut back towards the foul line. He hung in the air as Ehlo desperately skated by him, and calmy knocked down the jumper. With approximately 20,000 in attendance in silence, MJ gave a jumping fist-pump as Ehlo crumbles in despair in the background. 2) Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals (1987) Larry Bird had just got his shot blocked by a young Dennis Rodman and it was the Pistons throw in. The Pistons were up 1 point and had a timeout. The throw in was from the side, dangerously close to the Pistons basket. Instead of taking a timeout, Isiah Thomas tried for the quick throw in but was baited into a poor pass by Bird. Bird stole the pass, managed to stay in-bounds, and found Dennis Johnson cutting down the lane. The ensuing lay-in put the Celtics up and the pivotal win sets them up to advance to the NBA Finals. 1) Michael Jordan’s Final Shot (1998) Everyone has pretended that MJ never actually played for the Wizards, therefore his final shot was against the Jazz in the finals. The shot was a thing of beauty. In the final minute leading to it, MJ had hit a layup and played great defense. Jordan picked Karl Malone’s pocket and advanced the ball downcourt with a chance to win it. Jordan crossed over Russell so hard that he fell. He then knocked down the shot to put the Bulls up with only 5 seconds left. Further proving MJ’s clutch dominance was the fact that John Stockton could not knock down a good look from the top of the key. Commissioner Stern would label the Bulls a team for the ages during the trophy presentation.

Types of services – You will want to ensure that the repair service you have chosen offers repairs on a wide range of home appliance issues for various appliance makes and models. The same service can then be used for any other appliance problems you may encounter. The technician should be qualified to handle all types of repairs, not just simple ones .A company that offers regular maintenance is also a plus. You can avoid certain appliance failures with a regular maintenance schedule. Discuss this with the company representatives. Cost of repairs – Reputable home appliance repair companies will offer a detailed repair estimate before beginning work. The cost should be reasonable for the service provided and any replacement parts that are needed. Be wary of a company that submits an extremely low estimate. Expect more charges to be added later with this type of company. Location – A local company is able to get to your home quickly in an emergency. This can be extremely important when dealing with water leaks or other problems that could turn into a major expense. Any appliance that uses natural gas should be repaired immediately to avoid dangerous safety issues. A company with a good reputation in your area is the best choice. Reliability – A reliable company is another important factor. You don’t want to take time off from work only to find out that the technician wants to cancel the appointment after you have waited all day. This can be very frustrating and cost you money. A professional will do their utmost to honor the times scheduled and work as quickly as possible while maintaining good quality work in order to lower your risk of needing extra repairs. Repair versus Replace Most appliances have a lifespan between 10 to 15 years, depending on type and quality. At a certain point, the appliance should be replaced rather than repaired. A reputable professional will know when repair costs make a repair job unwise. Future repairs can be expected at this point, making it more cost-effective to replace the appliance. Be sure to mention any type of warranty that is still in effect for the appliance. If a replacement is the best option, you can discuss this with your technician, who can then recommend the proper type for your home. Choosing the right home appliance repair service is the key to a reasonably priced, high-quality repair that is done quickly.

In my last blog, I stressed the need for a modern data architecture (MDA) to underpin the next generation of the cognitive enterprise, fully harness data using the latest technologies, and sustain a platform-centric business model that supports people, process and technology optimized around A few competitors are trying to sow doubt about IBM’s commitment to IBM TM1 and IBM Planning Analytics – which is powered by IBM TM1 – as well as the product’s future, and the implications of the latest upgrade. Let me set the record straight—IBM Planning Analytics isn’t going anywhere. In fact, Predictive modeling and analytics have long been the domain of the data scientist and only the data scientist. But with modern tools, data science is becoming a team sport—business analysts and subject matter experts can join the analysis.

By updating iOS 10.1 to iOS 10.3 you lose the ability to jailbreak your device because Apple has patched the exploits of TaiG Jailbreak Tool in the previous version iOS 10.1. The conclusion for many is no more cydia for a while in iOS 10 and even no more vShare or AppAddict. This article covers the use of vShare to download and install cracked iOS 9 apps without Cydia and Jailbreak. How to Download vShare iOS 9 NO Jailbreak - Open Safari on your iOS 10 device - Go to www.vshare.com - On the homapage you’ll see “Paid apps for free” - Tap on Download (unjailbroken) button - Click on Install when prompted “ssl-api.appvv.com would like to install vShare” - Now on your homescreen tap on the vShare icon - Trust when prompted Untrusted App Developer “iPhone Distribution: Ningbo Xihe Children Products Co., Ltd.” If vShare iOS 10 doesn’t work, close all the apps running and restart your iOS device… vShare can cause some memory freeze on the device(just close the app and restart). Other reason that prevents vShare to run could be the large traffic that the client app creates on vShare servers(this means to try again later). Since two well-known software distribution platforms Installous and Hackulo.us are gone, many jailbreak users who are into downloading any software content for free are try to find other alternatives. For most of them this starts to be a long journey. Go to vShare for iOS 10 to download and install vShare without jailbreak or cydia. For those who don’t know other alternatives to these two I will gladly share them with you which are AppCake and vShare, but today we are not going to talk about AppCake instead we are going to talk about vShare and how to install it. vShare supports iOS 8. If we start analyzing vShare we will see that is quite easy to use. When compared to Installous, with vShare you can download IPA files right away without any hassle like CAPCHA verification or time limit. In order to install vShare you will need to first to have a jailbroken iDevices. If you haven’t done this yet I suggest you get Evasi0n7, this is an untethered jailbreak version for iOS 8. After this we need to install Cydia. So when the time comes in the jailbreak procedure don’t forget to opt for installing Cydia. Cydia is a digital distribution platform just like AppStore but made to work on jailbroken iDevices. Cydia doesn’t house apps, tweaks, themes or any packages but it’s a mere portal offering you a possibility to download packages from developers from various repos. So the more repos the better choice of getting the package that you want. Now let us begin our short how tutorial on how to install it on your iOS 8 device. In order to get vShare we need first to get AppSync for iOS 8. This will help you get the desired app and sync it with your iDevice. You can do this by going into Cydia > Manage > Sources > Edit > Add. In the input field type Drop a Like, Plus or Tweet if you've found this helpful...

Folktronica? Baroque-pop? A Derbyshire dales Efterklang? People have perpetually struggled to wrap up Haiku Salut’s soundbite into a handy soundbite. But in the grand scheme of things does such pigeonholing matter? The answer, when their output is as good as it is, is an emphatic no. Though often uttered in the same breath as the phrase ‘imaginary soundtrack’, the talented trio’s output to date is so much more. A swirling, gorgeous aural kaleidoscope of sounds where skittering electronics are intertwined with accordions and acoustic guitars, they make music ready-made to lose yourself in. Naturally, such inventive tones deserve a live show in a similarly, befitting, imaginative mould. Enter the annual ‘lamp show’ extravaganzas, which see the finest use of on-stage lighting since David Byrne did that dance with the lampstand during Stop Making Sense. With a veritable phalanx of on-stage bulbs programmed to flicker in time with the ebb and flow of their music, they’ve transformed a regular performance into a dazzling, multi-sensory experience. Better yet, they’re currently touring it, with London shows landing on the 15th and 16th. Seems the perfect time to have a quick Q&A, no? Never one to take the easy way out, the responses to our email questions come with a note, adding that “Robbie, our lamp person, interviewed us. I recorded and transcribed it in the tourbus”. Derbyshire’s finest, unorthodoxly resourceful to the last. Looking back at Tricolore and Etch And Etch Deep, did the attention they received surprise you and cause you to perhaps re-evaluate what you as a band were capable of? Has it shaped how you’ve approached the next step – whatever that might be – going forward? Gemma: We were very surprised about how Tricolore was received! We are proud of that album. We were finding our feet though, compared to Etch And Etch Deep it seems like a collection of songs. Louise: It wasn’t planned as a whole album. Sophie: Etch And Etch Deep was more of a focused effort. We had more of an idea of how we wanted it to be. Louise: Our next album is due next year and it’s bigger and braver than the previous two. Sophie: We are continually surprised by how well our music has been received which has given us the confidence to push things into areas we might not have touched otherwise. We can’t wait for people to hear it! How do you think making your two records to date have shaped the band’s development, and how do you feel that it’s manifested itself on any new/future material? Gemma: Etch And Etch Deep was more electronic whereas the focus of the songs on the first album was using the interesting instruments… Sophie: …and the loop pedal… Gemma: Whereas on the second album we were writing the songs we wanted to write from our influences. Louise: It has a dancier feel and we focused more on structure. Sophie: We heard things we liked and heard noises that we liked and explored them. There are prettier sounds on Etch And Etch Deep. In terms of shaping and manipulating sounds we’ve definitely developed in that respect. Louise: We’re always learning and developing new things and ideas. The next album is all the parts we’ve enjoyed the most with added party. Gemma: Yeah, on the new album we worked with Glastonbury brass who are amazing and there’s a huge depth to the new songs. This time around we’ve explored frequencies that make glasses fall from tables. Do you feel that creating moods and sensations via wordless music presents more of a challenge from a creative/songwriting perspective than that of a more lyrical bent, or does it give a greater sense of creative freedom? Gemma: With lyricless music people can interpret things how they want to so it gives more scope for people to enjoy it. Sophie: You’re kind of narrowing what the song is and what emotions you can feel if it has words. But then again it does mean that it doesn’t have a focused message… Gemma: Yeah, like song writers like [Mammoth Penguins frontwoman/solo artist] Emma Kupa. People really attach to the songs. Lou: Without the restriction of lyrics we can be more creative with the structure of the songs, there are more changes and more things going on. More creative freedom! Both of your albums to date – the second especially – meld traditional instrumentation with more modern technological elements. How big a part of your musical make-up is bringing the organic and the electronic together and how big a challenge is it to get the two sides to reconcile? Louise: We never really meant it be that way. We bought interesting instruments to start with and then pulled in other influences as we went along. Sophie: It wasn’t a challenge but it wasn’t really a goal either. From a recording perspective, the real instruments are often recorded as loops and pieced together and the electronics are bounced into audio and manipulated… Gemma: Yeah we don’t really treat organic and electronic as separate things. Having worked in projects both lyrical and instrumental in nature, which comes more naturally to you now that you’re two albums in as Haiku Salut? Sophie: Wordless. Once you’ve stopped writing lyrics you get out of practice of it. You’re not as good at it any more. Gemma: That’s like any instrument. Given Etch And Etch Deep centred around the theme of communication, looking back were you trying to create an overarching sensation or atmosphere and if so how successful do you think you’ve been in achieving it? Sophie: Well… there was a period of change for a few of us when we wrote those. I mean.. no one died or divorced or anything but our outlook on the world changed a bit. I like to hope that’s implied in some of the titles and in an overall feeling. With you about to embark on another series of lamp shows, how did the concept first come about? Do you think it adds a whole other element to the music or is it more of a natural visual extension of what you’re hoping to create sonically? Louise: We wanted to add something visually. The lamp shows give Haiku a different focus. It’s more of an art piece. When we play a normal show the focus is very much on about swapping instruments and the movement around the stage but with the lamp show the focus shifts and we kind of almost blend in with an art installation. Sophie: It was Gemma’s idea initially. We wanted to do other things that also worked within the realms of Haiku. Like releasing our book of haiku too. Gemma: It sits well with our music. It’s very analogue. It’s not fully digital lasers, it’s real bulbs with real voltages. Louise: Yeah, it brings the old and new together. With your music to date having consistently had a cinematic quality have you ever toyed with the idea of dabbling in soundtrack work, and if so how do you think the process differs from making a ‘normal’ album? Louise: Over the past year we’ve been working on the soundtrack to a play about Ada Lovelace, the first computer programmer. Sophie: It’s been a really interesting experience for us. When we write we’re often looking for what the focus of the track is going to be and turn that inside out. But with a soundtrack the focus is on something else and the music is there to aid the emotion and atmosphere. We’ve had to scale a few things back, be more minimal. Gemma: We’re involved in the performer integration side of the play too, we’re advising on the tech that means actors will trigger and manipulate sounds and music from the stage rather than having someone off stage doing that. Sophie: Yeah, it’s the idea of turning theatre in electronic performance (like Bjork) on its head and having electronic performance within theatre. It’s been really fun. Louise: The ultimate aim is to get the play in schools and public spaces and inspire young girls into art, design and STEAM subjects. What above all else do you hope people take away from both the lamp shows and the record on its own, be it an overall emotion, sensation or message? Gemma: The lamps shows are very immediate. You see it and almost forget what it is, it happens and it’s gone. You feel that something special has happened and then it’s gone. Sophie: With the record – I have records that I think very fondly about. It would be nice for our record to be that record for people. Is that completely narcissistic?

VIDEO Public lecture | We'll always have Paris: COP21 and the new political economy of climate change Grantham Research Institute public lecture by Michael Jacobs, Visiting Professor at the Grantham Research Institute Introduced and chaired by Professor Sam Fankhauser The Paris Climate Change Agreement, achieved at the UN COP21 Conference in December, is the first legally-binding agreement on climate change since the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. Michael Jacobs worked closely with the French Government and various international organisations in the political process leading up to the conference, having previously been adviser to UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown at the failed UN conference in Copenhagen in 2009. In this lecture he explored both the causes and the consequences of the Paris Agreement. Why and how was it achieved, where Copenhagen failed? What does the Agreement actually mean? And will it work? Examining the relationships between the economics of action on climate change, the politics of climate in Europe, the US, China and elsewhere, and the complex international relations of the UN negotiations, the lecture asked: does the Agreement mark a historic turning point in the world’s efforts to combat global warming, or merely another empty set of promises? Question & Answer Panel The lecture was followed by a question & answer session with contributions from Dr Robert Falkner and Dr Alina Averchenkova in addition to the speaker and chair. Suggested hashtag for this event for Twitter users: #LSECOP21

Todd Howard Knew There Would be 'Well-Deserved Criticism' for Fallout 76 IGN has a new "unfiltered" interview with Bethesda's Todd Howard where he acknowledges the rough start to Fallout 76. Howard admits that the company knew that FO76 was "going to have a lot of bumps", though he attributes the rough patches to "new systems and things like that". Anytime you're going to do something new like that, you know you're going to have your bumps; you know a lot of people might say, 'That's not the game we want from you.' But we still want to be somebody that's trying new things. That was a very difficult, difficult development on that game to get it where it was. A lot of those difficulties ended up on the screen. We knew, hey look, this is not the type of game that people are used to from us and we're going to get some criticism on it. A lot of that--very well-deserved criticism. Even from the beginning we understood -- "This is not going to be a high Metacritic game; that's not what this is given what it is." However, Howard believes that Fallout 76 is a game that will continue to improve over time in a not dissimilar way to Elder Scrolls Online. "It's not how you launch, it's what it becomes." Howard said. Looking back, Howard believes the game could have benefitted from a longer testing period and that beta testing over "a number of months" would have been a good thing. Since launch, Bethesda has released a steady stream of patches and content updates that many players acknowledge have gone a long way towards improving the game significantly.

NASA recently stated in a press release that a quick way to secure a reliable supply of electricity for an extended stay on the Moon or Mars would use an ink-jet-like printer to make super-thin solar cells from perovskites. "This material [perovskite] is a relatively new discovery, and it has many advantages for solar technology," the release said. "Not only is perovskite an incredible conductor of electricity, but it also can be transported into space as a liquid and then printed onto panels on the Moon or Mars, unlike silicon panels that have to be built on Earth and then shipped to space." With just one liter of the solution, astronauts would have enough material to generate a megawatt of solar power, far more energy than is required to run the International Space Station, the release said. Assembly of solar cells in space would also require a new technology known as electrospraying, the release added. "Electrospraying works like an inkjet printer, and it makes assembly quick, easy and efficient. It requires a small nozzle to deposit the perovskite solution as a thin film - about 250 times thinner than a human hair - onto a substrate that acts as the structure for the panel," the release said. Perovskites' major downfall is its inability to handle moisture, which makes it difficult to use on Earth but ideal for missions in space, according to the release. NASA's goal is to establish a permanent human presence on both the Moon and Mars, the later destination requiring a minimum stay of two years, when the Red Planet re-aligns with Earth.

Novice button makers all contend with the same choice between manual button makers that produce one size and other button makers with interchangeable dies. Unlike Tecre’s electric machines, which are intended for large volume button producers, Tecre’s manual button makers do not have interchangeable dies. Each manual button maker produces one size. We are going to explain why this is better and why you should avoid falling for the allure of the manual button maker with interchangeable dies! Manual button makers with interchangeable dies are often marketed as the more efficient button making option. Yet, Tecre’s manual button makers that are designed to produce one button size are the true picture of efficiency. While high volume button producers often produce buttons in one stationary space, smaller button producers have different needs. Their manual button maker needs to be quick and accessible at all times. They need to be easy to store. They need to be easy to transport. Got 4 small button jobs in 4 different sizes? No problem. Grab your 4 Tecre Button Makers and pump them out. It’s true that even our customers pumping out thousands of buttons daily with Tecre’s automated button maker keep their manual button makers on standby – they often use them for smaller button jobs! #2 Price and Value Many of the 3-in-1 button making machines are actually MORE expensive than purchasing three of Tecre’s manual button making machines. Are you ready for a no-brainer? For a lesser price, you could get three Tecre manual machines and not have to worry about changing out dies to produce new sizes. Furthermore, if you encounter a problem with a multi-die machine, you are left with no button maker to continue making buttons! I don’t know how to measure the cost of losing all button production but I am imagining the $$$’s adding up. Quickly. If Tecre’s manual button maker suffers damage, you are still able to continue making buttons with your other button makers while you service the inactive one. Lastly, cheaper material reduces the value of the button maker. Every button maker you will find with interchangeable dies feature plastic pieces on the machine, such as a plastic die table carrier. There is no multi-size manual button maker that rivals Tecre’s all steel construction. There is one more nagging reality to consider about manual button making machines. All of the button makers offering interchangeable dies are produced overseas – many come from China. Even those sold by companies in the United States have been imported. When you need help or advice with your button maker, how convenient is it for you to receive support? Can you track down the origin of your button maker? Tecre’s team is in place and when you call us, you deal with the very people involved in producing these top-quality American-made button making machines and supplies. It doesn’t get any more convenient that that! If you have ever fallen for the false enticement of the 3-in-one machine, we promise not to hold this against you or publish your names on a “should have known better” directory. Take this knowledge and go forth with your button maker purchase, refusing to fall victim to the illusion of the multi-size manual button making machine! Sign up for Tecre’s blog updates to be sent directly to your email!

Nelly is countersuing the woman claiming she came on to him, and then lied about their sexual encounter to get him criminally prosecuted. Nelly filed the suit in Seattle Friday, and in the docs says ... Monique Greene made her way into his VIP section of the nightclub where he was headlining, and started enthusiastically flirting with him. He says he invited her to join him and others back on his tour bus. Nelly insists they had consensual sex, and Greene only got pissed when one of his performers -- he told police it was a backup dancer -- entered the room to use his bathroom. He describes Greene as "aggressive and disruptive" and says she was asked to leave at that point. Greene called for an Uber and then called police to report the incident ... leading to Nelly's arrest for rape. Greene and her attorney made several statements on the Internet that falsely accused him of raping her. He says the statements were a clear and malicious attempt to get him prosecuted. Nelly adds her claims cost him money -- he was forced to cancel a scheduled performance -- and also damaged his reputation in the music biz. He's also filed a motion to strike Greene's claim he sexually harassed at least 2 other women -- and wants her defamation suit against him dismissed because he has every right to publicly deny what he says is a false claim of rape.
