Year 7 and 8 Skills 4 Living – Your survival kit

Image source

Learning intention: Students will have a greater understanding of the necessary goods and services provided in our community and their importance for survival. They will consider the requirements to be self-sufficient, in terms of food, fuel, shelter and medicine.

Success criteria: Each student will prepare a “virtual survival kit” (report, poster or slideshow) that lists all the necessary requirements to survive indefinitely in an isolated location.

Over the past couple of weeks most of you have experienced what it is like to be without telephones, internet, ATM’s and EFTPOS. You have also probably had times when there was a power failure, the tanks ran out of water or the gas bottle was empty. Often we take all these products and services for granted – we expect that we will always have access to electrical lighting; heating and cooling; cooking and washing appliances; waste disposal; communication and entertainment devices.

However, sometimes natural and man-made disasters occur (floods, bushfires, tsunamis etc) and all these goods and services are unavailable. There are groups of people who plan for such events – sometimes called “preppers” or “survivalists”. Some even believe in an apocalypse (doomsday or end of the earth as we know it). Your task today is to prepare a virtual “survival kit” to document what you would need in the case of some disaster that prevented you getting anything (food, water, power, shelter or any other materials and equipment) from outside this school. Can you think of any movies that begin with this premise?

You will need to grow your own food, because you cannot store enough to survive in the long term. You will need some way of producing energy if you wish to extract water from the ground and have hot water and lighting. Your report, poster or slideshow should include a list of requirements and a description of how they will be used.

Year 7 and 8 Skills for Living – “A Winter’s Tale”

The Bollywood dancers – Year 7 girls

Your task today is to write a blog post, including an image, about the production. You can find images of the production in the “student public folder > 2012 > Production photos”. You could write it as a newspaper review, including what you enjoyed about the performance and how it compares to other shows you have seen. Or you could write it as a performer – what you felt before, during and after the show. Make sure you include the following:

  • a description of the characters and the setting
  • the storyline – what is the show about?
  • what are the highlights?
  • who were the ‘behind the scenes’ team who made the show such a great success?

If you didn’t participate in the production and didn’t get the opportunity to see the show, write a review of your favorite TV show or movie. You will still need to include the four dot points above.

Year 7 and 8 Skills for Living

Each student needs to reflect on their Semester 2 Learning Goals and send a statement through to me by email. Each student has

  • 3 academic (subject-related) goals,
  • 2 “You Can Do It!” goals (confidence, resilience, persistence, organisation and getting along) and
  • 1 personal goal.

For student reports, I need to write a paragraph about how each student has achieved or not achieved their goals. So, students should write about each goal and state wether they have achieved their goal and if not, why they didn’t. Are your goals still relevant? How can you make sure you achieve these goals this term or next year? Send to me at brittgow(at)gmail(dot)com.

Year 7 Skills for Living

Today we have several things going on due to production rehearsals and a special program with Quantum Victoria.

The boys who have not been going to Dance classes and have been working on their ideal school project will be signing up to Minecraft today. You will each be given a sheet of instructions, a web address and Minecraft access code.

  1. Firstly, get a Mojang account, by going to and registering with your name, email address and password.  Go to your email and click on the confirmation link.
  2. Next, register with Quantum Victoria – when you use the invitation code, make sure you use a capital ‘Q’ and exclamation mark ‘!’. Go to your email and click on the confirmation link – if you can’t find the message, it may have gone to ‘junk mail’.
  3. Start playing Minecraft by going to Quantum Victoria Massively Minecraft and have fun!

For those students who have been doing Dance – you need to complete your Maths homework – send me a photograph annotated with the length, width and height of a rectangular prism. We will calculate the surface area and volume of this three dimensional shape.

When you have finished, you can design the programs, posters and tickets for the school production – An adaptation of Shakespeare’s play, “A Winter’s Tale”. The show will be on Monday 29th October (7.30pm) and Wednesday 31st October (7.30pm). Tickets cost $5.00 for children and $10.00 for adults.

My Ideal School

Monday 3rd September

Year 8 Skills for Living: Period 2 and Period 6

While I am away on Monday you have a choice of the following activities:

1. Those students who were in the group that organized the “Shake’n’Dog” fundraiser on Friday can write a report that includes the money raised, the costs and the net profit of that event. Could someone please write a letter to Mrs Julie Bos from the Hawkesdale Post office who donated four bottles of milk? You will also need to write about what worked well, what could be improved and what you learned from the activity. Who worked well as a team? Would you be interested in working in the food industry? What would have happened if you had to pay wages to the people who worked? How could you have made a greater profit? Please submit this report to me by email at brittgow(at)

2. Go to the ApolloHawkes wiki and complete any unfinished tasks. This week’s task is to comment on five pages that belong to Apollo bay students. Make sure your comments are appropriate and include one compliment, one suggestion and one question to keep the conversation happening.

3. Go on with the Apollo Bay Camp Menu. Remember we need three breakfasts, three lunches and three dinners hat can be prepared at the Youth Hostel. You need to write out a list of ingredients for each menu item and submit a shopping list of the quantities required to feed 20 people – 18 students and two teachers. Again, you should submit this to me by email.

4. The last option, when you have finished at least two other tasks, is to continue with your Ideal School project. You need to be able to describe your vision to another person and justify why you have included each element of the plan. How does your school improve learning? What knowledge and skills do the students learn here that they cannot learn at a traditional school? Why should schools be more like your school? This can be written as a blog post or submitted to me by email.

Celebrate Father’s Day and Teamwork!

During period 4 “Skills for Living” today I will be assisting the Year 8 students set up for the “Shake ‘n’ Dog” fundraiser. Your task is to write a blog post about one of the following:

  • What does your Dad mean to you? What do you and your Dad do together? How does your Dad make you feel special? What does it look like and feel like when you and your Dad are together? Add an image that portrays what is special about your Dad. (Make sure it is a creative commons image)
  • Next week is Blog Action Day with the theme “The Power of We”. Read the linked post and share your ideas on your blog. Think about the quotes below and write about what one or more of them mean to you. Coming up to the winter sporting finals, write about your own football or netball team and how you work together. What is special about working together as a team? What can be frustrating or difficult?

“There is no I in TEAM!”

“No Man is an Island” (John Donne, poet)

“Alone we can do so little. Together we can do so much” (Helen Keller)

“Most great learning happens in groups. Collaboration is the stuff of growth.” (Sir Ken Robinson Ph.D.)

Teamwork divides the tasks and multiplies the success.” (Author unknown)

If, for some reason, you are unable to post to your blog, you can write your work in a Word document and email it to me or write this in your Skills for Living book and submit.


Graduate Student Peer Coaching Circles

Your graduate studies will be a time of great development and learning but it is not uncommon to also face challenges that are both academic and personal. Some of these challenges might not have a clear solution. In the worst cases, you also might not have a very large amount of trusted associates to support you through the process. The Graduate School would like to help build a strong community so you can make progress on these difficult challenges through a process known as Peer Coaching Circles.

So what are Peer Coaching Circles? Coaching circles are based on an internationally-known process called Action Learning. They include a series of highly focused meetings among a small group of peers, all committed to meeting real-life challenges or goals. The coaching circles are not study groups. They are places to help each other by asking questions, challenging ideas, pooling information, and holding each other accountable for your progress in between sessions. The circle ends when the meetings end, so there is no long-term commitment required.

The process is overseen by a trained facilitator who will help train you in the process of peer coaching. After completing the program you will receive a non-credit badge through the university, as well as the skill sets that you can take into your personal and professional life. Coaching circles are used all over the country in businesses, non-profits, and laboratories.

The Importance Of Wilkes Barre Propane

If you use propane for heat or other needs in your home, you need to be aware of the risk of leaks. You can't leave it up to chance that something won't happen in Wilkes Barre. Most people say they can smell the Wilkes Barre propane so if there was ever a problem they would know immediately. However, this can mean there has to be a significant leak first.

If the problem develops while a family is sleeping they may not know. If you have a reduced sense of smell or even a cold, the odor may be hard to detect. The usually smell with propane problems is like rotten eggs. This is due to a chemical intentionally added to propane for this reason in Wilkes Barre.

Wilkes Barre propane detectors are very important to have in your home. You have smoke detectors and carbon detectors. You need to add this type as well. They are known as LP Gas Leak Detectors. There are quite a few styles and brands out there you can consider in Wilkes Barre. They basically all work the same though.

Get several of these detectors so that if one doesn't work, others will. Place them in areas of the home where propane is commonly used. Make sure you routinely change the batteries with the devices too. It is a good idea to do it when the time change occurs for all of your detectors. When a battery is low before then, it will chirp and give you a reminder to change it.

They should have a light that shows the device is working. There is a sound that it will emit if there is any problem with the propane in the home. You should pay close attention to such an alarm as it means something isn't right. If you hear the alarm go off, try to remain calm. If there are any open flames, turn them off. Put out cigarettes as a precaution too in Wilkes Barre.

Avoid touching any of the appliances in the home. Don't touch anything electrical either including light switches or phones. Propane is flammable if there is air or flames it can mix with when it creates a spark. Try to turn off pilot lights if you have enough time.

Should the alarm sound, everyone in the household should be removed. A professional should come to the home to test for any signs of Wilkes Barre propane problems. This can be the fire department or the business that fills your propane tank. If they find there is an issue, they can repair it. No one should return to the house until it has been repaired and the situation cleared.

Make sure everyone in the household is aware of what the procedure will be should the propane detector go off. You don't want to take any chances that there can be actions which increase the risk of a problem. Propane can be very useful but you also have to protect your home against any potential problems. Never ignore a detector that goes off or any smells like rotten eggs.

April 27, 2016 -- Acting Westchester County District Attorney James A. McCarty announced that Andre Coverdale (DOB 12/18/88) who has no known address, was arraigned today on an indictment charging him with:

in the death of Dawne McCray.

On Jan. 16, 2016, at about 12:30 p.m., the defendant walked up to a security booth at 2 Schroeder St. in Yonkers and told the security officer that “he had just killed his mother.” The defendant asked the guard to call the police.

When Yonkers Police arrived on the scene, the defendant was still waiting at the guard booth. The security guard identified the defendant as the person claiming to have killed his mother.

The defendant told the officers that his mother was located in apartment 225 at the complex. When police officers entered the apartment, they found the victim stabbed to death in her bed. They located the apparent murder weapon, a knife, on a window sill in the living room.

The victim died from multiple stab wounds of the face and neck involving a carotid artery and jugular veins resulting in massive bleeding.

The defendant pled not guilty.

He was remanded.

His next court date is May 11, 2016.

The defendant faces an indeterminate sentence of imprisonment, the maximum term must be life, and the minimum term may be not less than 15 years nor more than 25 years. Thus, the least sentence is 15 years to life, and the greatest sentence is 25 years to life.

Deputy District Attorney Timothy Ward of the Superior Court Trial Division is prosecuting the case.

Plagiarism and Correct Referencing: Don't Get Caught Out

March 30, 2016

In academia generally, and at CDU particularly, the issue of plagiarism is taken very seriously. The reason for this is that researchers, academics, creatives and others that produce original work and ideas put a lot of time, effort, energy, resources into  developing their original ideas and theories. Some of these ideas may have a significant impact on what is considered to best practice in a given field or may have even changed our values or beliefs as a society. So given the importance of original work, it is right and fair that those that created it, receive due acknowledgement for its creation.  As students, we are constantly absorbing and interpreting other people’s work, so in honour of the contribution this has to our own learning , it is critical we acknowledge where that learning comes from. To do otherwise is essentially stealing.

Specifically, we define plagiarism at CDU as “the presentation of the work of another without acknowledgement”. And while most students or academics would not go out of their way to deliberately plagiarise, it can be easier than you think to get caught, despite your best intentions. In creating assignments, reports and essays as part of your academic career, you will inevitably need to draw on a wide variety of sources of information.  The key to not inadvertently getting caught out by plagiarism when submitting academic work is correct and proper referencing.There are a large number of referencing styles used in academia, but different disciplines prefer different referencing style guidelines so check with your lecturer if you are unsure. Two commonly used styles at CDU are the Harvard Referencing Style and APA . The CDU Library  can be a fantastic source of information on different types of referencing styles, so it’s worth reviewing proper referencing techniques before , during and after you complete your assignments. Not referencing properly can at best cost valuable marks and at worst, can lead to penalties under the CDU’s plagiarism policies  which can affect your entire academic life.

As well as making sure you are up to speed with proper referencing techniques for both in-text and end of text reference lists, do make sure you use the plagiarism software  that is a part of all online assignment submissions. This will allow you to see where you may need to correct your referencing to avoid any suspicion of plagiarised work. The CDU Bookshop also has a number of resources and study guides that can help you navigate your way through plagiarism and good referencing techniques.


What is the Meaning & Definition of typhus

Typhus is the name given to a group of infectious diseases generated by the presence of a bacterium, Rickettsia. This bacterium is a parasite that is inserted on the skin of an individual and can leave in it a multitude of harmful elements that are feeding from the organism. Normally the typhus is spread from the presence of lice, fleas or ticks from animals that carry the bacteria, passing through human skin, deposited it over it and allow to start the cycle of growth and development. It is estimated that the typhus gets its name from the Greek word typhos, meaning hazy or filled with smoke, in relation not to the form of bacteria or their brands if not to the State of mind in which a person with typhus acts, a mental state of confusion, ditraccion, lack of concentration and semi unconsciousness.
The history of typhus is not very old and its earliest records lead us back five centuries when at the end of the 15th century. At some moments in history, the presence of this disease became major epidemics that required much effort and time to be controlled, causing thousands of deaths due to its rapid spread. In general, specialists estimate that this type of disease is usually more easily attack humble social sectors since they have less chance of acting against the infectious focus. Similarly, people with malnutrition or lack of normal health were always the clear objective of this type of infection had. Such is the case of the thousands of dead by typhus which took place in different concentration camps nazis of World War II, fields in which were kept detainees in inhumane living conditions, with high levels of malnutrition and greater contagion-prone by overcrowding.
Typhus occurs through the symptoms of high fever, chills, pain in the joints, severe headaches, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and muscle, redness of the skin, dry cough, back pain and abdominal, photophobia or intense sensitivity to light, delirium, and low blood pressure. Today there are vaccines that are important to prevent the spread of the disease and even though it has been eradicated in much of the West, there are still regions of Africa, Latin America and Asia in which can be found which are always asked to visit those regions having the appropriate vaccine.

Butterflies and Barbarians: Swiss Missionaries and Systems of Knowledge in South-East Africa (BOK)

Patrick Harries

199,00 19900
Sendes vanligvis innen 5-15 dager
The Swiss missionaries played a primary role in explaining Africa to the literate world in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book emphasises how these European intellectuals, brought to the deep rural areas of southern Africa by their vocation, formulated and ordered knowledge about the continent. Central to this group was Junod who became a pioneering collector in the fields of entomology and botany. He would later examine African society with the methodology, theories and confidence of the natural sciences. On the way he came to depend on the skills of African observers and collectors. Out of this work emerged, in three stages between 1898 and 1927, an influential classic in the field of South African anthropology, "Life of a South African Tribe." At the same time Patrick Harries examines how local people absorbed imported ideas into their own body of knowledge. Through a process of interchange and compromise, Africans adapted foreign ways of seeing and doing things, and rapidly made them their own. This is a history of new ideas and practices that shook African societies before and during the early years of colonialism. It is equally a history of ordinary people and their ability to adapt, change, and subvert these ideas. Professor T.O. Ranger says: 'Now, really for the first time, Harries sets these arguments in a wonderfully persuasive, detailed and dynamic context. He really understands the principle of nineteenth-century botany and insect classification, the organising concepts of linguistics, and the changing assumptions of ethnography and anthropology. One gets a profound sense of intellectual formation of debate and development of ideas. "Missionary ideas" are themselves no single thing but constantly in debate and in flux.'

How to Clean Wool and Cashmere Sweaters and Clothes

sheep wool
Nature Picture Library/Britain on View/Getty Images

In case you've forgotten or never knew, wool and cashmere clothes are made from natural hair fibers from a sheep, goat, alpaca or llama. These fibers are composed of protein. Think of your own hair. It is also protein and you certainly don't want to use harsh chemicals on your own head! Same goes with wool.

Washing Wool and Cashmere Clothes

Dry cleaning is often recommended for wool clothes but is it necessary?

Structured wool clothes like outer coats, blazers and men's suit coats should always be dry cleaned. While the wool fabric is washable, the fabrics used to create the inner structure may be destroyed or become misshapen when washed. There is no way to reverse the damage once this happens.

Most unstructured knitted wool pieces like sweaters, scarves or accessories can be hand washed as well as unstructured and unlined woven wool pieces like slacks can be hand washed or washed on the delicate cycle in an automatic washer.

Always use cool water and a gentle detergent. Knitted wool garments should never be over-agitated or wrung tightly or the knit may stretch. If you have a two-piece ensemble, always wash both pieces at the same time. This will keep the color and wear more consistent.

Pretreat stains following the guidelines for the specific type of stain. But, always read all stain removal product labels carefully for a list of ingredients.

Stain removal products should be tested in an inconspicuous spot like an inside seam before using. Wool fibers will dissolve in chlorine bleach. Even dilute solutions of chlorine bleach will cause permanent yellowing, color loss, stiffening and weakening of wool.

Never place any wool garment in an automatic dryer on high heat.

You will end up with a shrunken garment that is often - but not always - impossible to restore.

Home Dry Cleaning Wool and Cashmere Clothes

Home dry cleaning kits can be used by following all product instructions to freshen wool garments. For small stains, use the stain remover provided with the kit.  If the clothes are heavily stained, it is better to take them to a professional cleaner. If there are stains, point them out and identify them to your cleaner for best results.

Whether you use a home kit or professional cleaning, always clean all matching pieces of an outfit. This will prevent mismatched items if there is any color loss from cleaning.

Ironing Wool or Cashmere Clothes

Wool is a natural fiber with wonderful resilient qualities when knitted or woven into fabric. If a wool garment is wrinkled, simply hang the item in a steamy bathroom to allow the fibers to relax. This may do the trick and there will be no need to iron. For deep creases, wool can be ironed by taking a few precautions.

Extremely high temperatures when ironing wool can scorch just as it does silk or other natural hair fibers. The scorching or yellowing occurs as the fibers begin to burn. Burned fibers cannot be revived.

Always select the correct iron temperature setting and use a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric.

Wool fibers can scorch and burn if ironed at a high temperature. So, a pressing cloth is a must when ironing wool fabric and one the essential tools of ironing most fabrics. Ironing without a pressing cloth will leave shiny or scorch marks on the wool. The shiny marks are caused by the wool fibers "fusing" together due to the excess heat. Scorching is the next step that comes because the iron was so hot it began to burn the fibers.

Shop for Pressing Cloths on

Using a steam iron will give the best results and shorten ironing time. Simply set the iron to the Wool temperature setting or follow these temperature guidelines.

Shop for Steam Irons on

If you happen to slightly scorch a napped wool fabric, allow the fabric to dry completely and rub the scorched area lightly with an emery board.

A diluted solution of hydrogen peroxide and water may help remove a more severe scorch on light colored fabrics. Mix one tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide with one cup of water. Use a clean white cloth to gently scrub the area. Rinse well by blotting with clear water. Be sure to test on a hidden area first.

If you forgot to use a pressing cloth and your wool fabric is shiny, try sponging white distilled vinegar on the surface of wool garment in the shiny area to lift the fibers. Rinse thoroughly by blotting with a cloth dipped in clear water and allow to air dry.

Protecting and Storing Wool and Cashmere Clothes

Wool is especially attractive to pests who feed on the natural protein fibers. Always make sure that wool clothes are completely clean when storing for long periods because stains add more food for pests.  Learn how to protect wool clothes during storage with lavender or moth balls and how to get rid of pests that damage wool.

6 Tips for Keeping Wool and Cashmere Clothes Looking Great

  • To help wool clothes keep their shape, always empty pockets and remove any accessories that might pull on the fibers like belts and jewelry.
  • Button or zip clothes to help them keep their shape and prevent wrinkles.
  • Spot clean stains as they happen so the garment might be worn a few more times. Every time you clean a wool garment, a little bit of damage is done to the fibers. Prolong the time between cleanings as long as possible.
  • For heavier wool clothes, use a soft-bristled garment brush after wearing to remove surface dust and soil.
  • Allow at least 24 hours between wearings so the fibers can dry from body and outside moisture and relax back into their original shape.
  • If wool outer garments get wet, hang on a sturdy wooden hanger and dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat.

In 2011, the Harvard Law Review held a symposium entitled "The New Private Law". This title was chosen to capture what is allegedly a new stream in US legal scholarship: a group of scholars arguing for the normative distinctiveness of private law and proposing a reconstructive, rather than deconstructive, approach to its traditional concepts. This essay analyses "The New Private Law" from a historical and comparative perspective. It briefly recalls what are presently perceived to be the typical differences between German and American legal scholarship. Afterwards it traces the origins of this divergence, thereby focussing on the decline of doctrinal scholarship and the rise of the critique of private law in the US over the course of the 20th century. Against this background, the essay then examines the program of "The New Private Law" and some of the new theories of private law that are put forward under this heading. While it is too early to refer to "The New Private Law" as a coherent intellectual movement, the essay contends that one can indeed speak of a new mood in American legal thought: a growing dissatisfaction with the established, critical accounts of private law that gives rise to the development of innovative new theories offering constructive reinterpretations of some of its most fundamental concepts. The essay concludes by noting significant differences between "The New Private Law" and present private law scholarship in Germany. In particular, it holds that the first is more ambitious in theoretical terms than most of the latter.

The German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch – BGB) contains an explicit privilege for private necessity: The owner of a thing may not prevent others from damaging or destroying his property in order to avert actual danger if the threatened harm is unreasonably greater than the damage to the owner's property (§ 904 sentence 1 BGB). He may, however, claim compensation for any damages he incurred (§ 904 sentence 2 BGB). However, the Code does not state who is liable to the owner. If the person who damaged or destroyed the owner's property did not do so to preserve his own legal interest but the interests of someone else, it is unclear whether liability should fall on the actor or on the third person.
Over the past century, courts and commentators have tried to find a principled solution to this problem. Doing so has proven difficult – the owner's claim under § 904 sentence 2 BGB is an exception in German private law. Usually, a person is liable to another only if he or she has done something wrong. In a case of private necessity, however, § 904 sentence 1 BGB allows the property to be sacrificed.
In the United States, the doctrine of private necessity was first established in 1910 in Vincent v. Lake Erie. Until today, the case has been a staple of tort law classes throughout the country, and it has puzzled law professors and legal philosophers alike. Most agree that the case was rightly decided. There is, however, considerable disagreement as to why this is the case. Some but not all of the arguments resemble those brought forward in the discussion surrounding § 904 sentence 2 BGB.
The article examines both the debates in Germany and in the United States, including historical arguments advanced on either side of the Atlantic. It shows that some of the theories which feature prominently in the United States could serve to enrich the discussion in Germany. This is true even though American scholars pay very little attention to the question of who should be liable to the owner. Indeed, the Restatement (Second) of Torts holds a different person liable than the Restatement (Third) of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment, a fact which so far has received little attention.
-Erik Röder, The Limited Partnership in Comparative Perspective – Explanations for the Different Evolution of a Legal Form / Die Kommanditgesellschaft im Rechtsvergleich – Hintergründe der unterschiedlichen Karriere einer Rechtsform, pp. 109-154(46)
The limited partnership originated centuries ago in France, from where it spread – inter alia – to Germany, the US and, finally in 1907, to England. Today's practical importance of limited partnerships in each of these jurisdictions differs widely. In France, the société en commandite is quasi-extinct. In England and the US, limited partnerships are used predominantly as investment vehicles. Only the German Kommanditgesellschaft plays a significant role as a legal form for small and medium-sized enterprises. This article shows that the different fate of the limited partnership form in France, England, the US and Germany can be explained by the interplay of three factors: limited liability, tax transparency, and the ability of the limited partner to manage and control the partnership. The limited partnership competes mainly with corporate forms that are tailor-made for small and mediumsized enterprises and that offer limited liability for all shareholders. In contrast, the limited partnership form is defined by the existence of at least one general partner who is personally liable for the partnership's debt. All four jurisdictions allow for the compensation of this disadvantage by using a corporation as sole general partner. However, as this structure is more complicated than a plain vanilla corporation, the limited partnership needs an additional competitive edge to be attractive. This crucial advantage consists in its tax transparency. Tax transparency means that profits of limited partnerships are taxed only at partner-level whereas corporate shareholders have to bear an additional layer of taxation at the corporate level. Only France denies tax transparency to limited partners and taxes them like corporate shareholders, which explains the disappearance of the société en commandite. The fact that limited partnerships in England and the US are used almost exclusively as investment vehicles is due to an ancient and now obsolete rule which links limited liability to non-participation in management or control of the partnership and thus requires the limited partner to remain a passive investor. Unlike England and the US, Germany narrowly avoided adopting the same concept. This gave the German Kommanditgesellschaft the flexibility to allow the limited partner to become the dominant figure in the partnership. The general partner of a typical Kommanditgesellschaft is nowadays a corporation which does not share in the profits of the partnership and which functions only as a dummy for the limited partners. This structure has been recognized in Germany since the 1920s and offers the same attractive features as the American Limited Liability Company (LLC): a combination of limited liability, tax transparency and control.
-Hannes Rösler, Freedom of Choice of Law in the International Law of Divorce under the Rome III Regulation / Rechtswahlfreiheit im Internationalen Scheidungsrecht der Rom III-Verordnung, pp. 155-192(38)
The principle of private autonomy has reached European conflict of laws in divorce matters with Regulation (EU) No. 1259/2010 (Rome III). This is relevant due to the degree of cross-border family matters, the persistently high divorce rates and the considerable differences as to the substantive laws that continue to exist. This article addresses the motives behind the movement to party autonomy, but above all it considers a need for clarification that should not be underestimated.
Due to the objective connecting factor, courts will apply the lex fori more frequently. In the absence of a choice of law, Art. 8 Rome III Regulation declares applicable the law of the common habitual residence or in certain circumstances that of the last common residence of the spouses. This is owing to the integration effect intended by the Regulation but is also due to the advantages of the lex fori approach, which approximates English law. However, it is doubtful whether the lex fori always meets the interests of the parties as the principle of habitual residence (resulting in a simultaneous departure from the quite strict citizenship principle) creates some uncertainty. These ambiguities can be overcome by the parties' primary right to choose the law under Art. 5 Rome III Regulation. In that way, the continuity needs of the parties can be accommodated.
The principle of free choice of law contained in the Regulation is an important component of the international private law of the European Union even though Rome III applies only to participating Member States. In addition, surprisingly, many questions remain open. Some are answered as follows. The Regulation is relevant not only for judicial or administrative decisions, but also for private divorces. That the Regulation applies, in principle, to same-sex marriages also seems compelling, though the assessment of the question is left to national law (see Art. 13 Rome III Regulation). It is disputed whether under Art. 5(1)(d) Rome III Regulation the law of the forum can also be chosen abstractly. This is affirmed here so long as the spouses have informed themselves to a sufficient and specific degree and have narrowed down the electable states – and the state in question belongs to that group. The choice of law by people with multiple citizenship is not limited to the effective citizenship even if that is prescribed by national law. From the requirement of the Regulation that a choice of law shall not prejudice the rights and equality of the spouses, it is derived that national courts are under an obligation to review the content in the context of Art. 6 Rome III Regulation. The article also emphasizes the importance of Art. 10 Rome III Regulation, which is ideal for resolving gender discrimination issues such as those arising under Islamic law.
-Luboš Tichý, The Decline of the Territoriality Principle in EU Antitrust Law / Die Überwindung des Territorialitätsprinzips im EU-Kartellrecht, pp. 193-228(36)
This study challenges paradigms in the area of EU antitrust law. In contrast to the prevailing opinion it draws the conclusion that the legal acts (the decisions) of the cartel authorities of the EU member states ought to be qualified as transnational administrative acts which are issued under the authority of the EU within the application of European law.
Specifically, this concerns the question whether the cartel authority of one EU member state may decide on anti-competitive behaviour in the same manner as, for example, the European Commission would decide on it, i.e., with direct effects including the obligation to execute such decisions on the territory of all member states. The predominant view is that a decision of a national cartel authority does not have direct effects on the territory of other member states. Especially in private international law literature it is argued that even within the framework of the EU, the principles of territoriality and limitation of administrative acts apply and that therefore such decisions are limited to the territory of the member state in which they were issued. This shows that even the existence of the EU has not led to a change in traditional opinions. In practice, however, this leads to seriously inappropriate phenomena, including, for example, additional costs for parallel proceedings in practically the same matters in several member states. In view of administrative sanctions this may also violate one of the basic principles of human rights: ne bis in idem.
According to this study, already de lege lata in all EU member states the effects of transnational acts are fundamentally the same as they are within the jurisdiction in which they are issued. Such an act binds every affected party, including all state authorities of the member states. Its validity is based on the principle of the recognition of all national legal systems within the EU. Despite the non-existence of an explicit provision, from the purpose and certain principles of European law one may construe a general obligation to respect the effects of the so-called European Transnational Act. However, any such act must comply with the basic principles of EU law, and especially it must not be in conflict with basic procedural rights. De lege ferenda it appears necessary to change Regulation 1/2003 in order to clarify the legal regime.

Western Presstitutes Dumbfounded by Vladimir Putin’s 89% Approval Rating

Western Presstitutes Dumbfounded by Vladimir Putin’s 89% Approval Rating

Guest Column by The Saker

What does Vladimir Putin’s 89% rating mean?
June 30, 2015

What does this mean?

So what is next?

The neoconservatives who now run U.S. foreign policy, like "Dr. Strangelove," want to start a nuclear attack on Russia ...likely bringing on the extinction of us human beings, or at least those in the northern hemisphere. Certainly all Americans and Europeans would oppose this ...unless "reliable sources" assure us that Russia is about to attack us. Who are these reliable sources? Why the neocons who have taken over Washington and it's European vassals, all of which are lying through their teeth -- pure propaganda. The "mainstream media?" They repeat this propaganda or lose their jobs. This leaves the human race only one chance: put aside your cognitive dissonances and watch what Russia has been saying on Russia Today (RT) or Sputnik News. Hint: you will find out that Russia wants peace more than anything. So, dear readers, if you take this advice our children and grandchildren may yet live to thank us.

Truth Is A Crime Against The State

Paul Craig Roberts

EU Bashes “Russian Propaganda”

by Stephen Lendman

It shamelessly called their reporting valued by growing millions “broadcasting fabrications and hate speech from their bureaus in EU cities.”

It touted plans by EU officials to counter what they called “use and misuse of communications tools…play(ing) an important role in the dramatic political, economic and security-related developments (in) Eastern (European countries) over the past 18 months.”

RT’s editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan said “the European Union is diligently trying to stifle the alternative voice of RT, at a time when in Europe there are hundreds of newspapers, television channels and radio stations, which set out only one point of view on what is happening in the world.”

“(I)f after all this, the EU still complains that they are losing the ‘information war’ against Russia, perhaps it’s time to realize that” growing numbers of people are fed up with being lied to.

As many as 99% of all Americans get their news from the so-called "mainstream media." And 100% of the "mainstream" newscasters keep their jobs by reporting only what the government allows them to report, which is close to 100% government lies. So when the neocon Dr. Strangeloves declare that they must foment a nuclear war with Russia, most Amercans will approve of this event, even though it will have been unjustified and likely to kill most Americans ...while the government hides in undeground bunkers.

US, NATO Powers Intensify Preparations for Nuclear War

The NATO military alliance is preparing to implement a more aggressive nuclear weapons strategy in response to alleged “Russian aggression,” according to NATO sources cited by the Guardian Wednesday evening.

Proposed changes include provisions for greater involvement of nuclear forces in ongoing NATO military exercises along Russia’s borders and new guidelines for nuclear escalation against Russia, according to the NATO officials.

The alliance’s nuclear doctrine has been the subject of quiet, informal discussions “on the sidelines” of the ongoing NATO summit. The new policies will be formally articulated and confirmed at an upcoming conference of the alliance’s Nuclear Planning Group, which was rescheduled for an earlier date this week as word got around about the secretive planning.

“There is very real concern about the way in which Russia publicly bandies around nuclear stuff. So there are quite a lot of deliberations in the alliance about nuclear weapons,” an unnamed NATO diplomat told the Guardian.

The claim that discussion about a revision of nuclear weapons policy is in response to Russian aggression turns reality on its head. In the aftermath of the US and NATO-backed coup in Ukraine last year, the major imperialist powers have engaged in a relentless militarization of Eastern Europe, including the establishment of a rapid reaction force of 40,000 troops.

This week, US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter announced that the US would permanently deploy tanks, military vehicles and other equipment to countries bordering Russia. There are also ongoing discussions about directly arming Ukraine, beyond the extensive assistance the right-wing government already receives.

NATO is now planning to respond to any attempt by Russia to maintain or counter US imperialism’s aggressive moves in Eastern Europe with even more massive military response, including nuclear weapons.

An indication of the thinking of NATO strategists was provided by a report in the Financial Times. In the event of a conflict involving one of the Baltic countries, “Russia might…accuse the alliance of escalating the conflict and threaten to use intermediate range nuclear weapons.” The Times quotes Elbridge Colby, of the Center for a New American Security (CNAS): “NATO does not need a total nuclear rethink. But it needs to be realistic about how it would respond and willing to show Putin that he would not get away with it.”

This scenario builds on allegations from the US that Russia has violated the Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF), allegations that the Russian government has denied. US officials have stated that the Pentagon is preparing to launch preemptive attacks against missiles or other targets in Russia, including with nuclear weapons, in response to Moscow’s alleged violation of the treaty.

The announcement of major revisions to NATO’s nuclear strategy came just days after the publication of an extensive report, “Project Atom: Defining US Nuclear Strategy and Posture for 2025-2050,” by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). The main portions of the report were authored by a career US government strategist and senior CSIS analyst, Clark Murdock, a man who previously worked in high-level strategy jobs at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Department of Defense (DOD), the US Air Force and the National War College. The report included contributions from a large team of researchers and experts, including panels from the CNAS and the National Institution for Public Policy (NIPP).

The thrust of the CSIS analysis is that the US must make its nuclear arsenal easier to use in a war with Russia, China or some other power. The military must adopt “a US nuclear strategy designed for twenty-first century realities,” based on new generations of tactical warheads and delivery systems.

More advanced tactical nuclear weapons will enable Washington to threaten and launch small nuclear wars, without being “self-deterred” by concerns that its actions would lead to a nuclear holocaust, the CSIS report argues.

“The United States needs to develop and deploy more employable nuclear weapons,” the CSIS wrote, including “low collateral damage, enhanced radiation, earth penetration, electromagnetic pulse, and others as technology advances.”

Such advances, the report argues, are the only way to counter the erosion of American technological superiority by the growth of the Chinese and Russian nuclear arsenals, together with the addition of as many as nine new governments to the “nuclear club.”
Under the “Measured Response” theory advocated by the CSIS and Murdock, these types of highly mobile nuclear strike forces could engage in “controlled nuclear operations,” firing “low yield, accurate, special effects” nukes against enemy targets without leading to a full-scale nuclear war.

By “forward deploying a robust set of discriminate nuclear response options,” the US could launch tactical nuclear strikes “at all rungs of the nuclear escalation ladder,” Murdock wrote.
Such “small-scale” nuclear conflicts would inevitably claim tens, if not hundreds of millions of lives, even assuming they did not escalate into a global nuclear war.

The continental US, according to this theory, would be protected from the consequences of regional-scale nuclear warfare by the deterrent effect of Washington’s huge arsenal of high-yield strategic weapons. Any “controlled” nuclear conflicts started by the US government, moreover, would not involve nuclear operations targeting or launched from North America.

“The US homeland would not be engaged in the US response to a nuclear attack on a regional ally,” the CSIS wrote.

In barely veiled language, CSIS is suggesting that the US should utilize allied and client governments as staging areas and arenas for “controlled” atomic warfare.

As the product of collaboration between an extensive network of ruling-class policy theorists, such proposals are extremely ominous and represent a grave warning to the international working class.

There have been other calls for a significant expansion of US nuclear weapons capacity. In comments to the Atlantic Council earlier this week, US Congressman Mac Thornberry, the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, called for a “national conversation about building new nuclear weapons.”

“That’s something we haven’t been able to even have a conversation about for a while, but I think we’re going to have to,” Thornberry declared.

Late last year, the Obama administration announced plans for a $1 trillion, three-decades-long upgrade of nuclear weapons capability.

In the writings of the CSIS and the other discussions within the state apparatus, there is a degree of insanity. The strategists of American imperialism are coldly calculating the best tactics for waging and winning nuclear war. Yet this insanity flows from the logic of American imperialism and the drive by the financial aristocracy to control—ever more directly through the use of military force—the entire world.

Greek Democracy Is Failing — Paul Craig Roberts

Greek Democracy Is Failing

Paul Craig Roberts

In other words, the Greek

Greek “debt crisis”

As a Greek default and a turn to the East is the only workable solution for Greece, the EU’s agents inside Greece have launched a huge campaign against a Greek turn to the East.

I fear that the Greek people are too brainwashed to be able to avail themselves of the opportunity to rescue themselves from the clutches of the One Percent, who will drive the Greek population into the ground. The Greek voters did not have sufficient judgment to give their current government a large enough percentage of the vote for the government to have any credibility with the EU and Greece’s creditors. What we are witnessing in Greece is the failure of democracy due to the people themselves.

Even as I repost his lecture, Paul Craig Roberts is or soon will be presenting it in Delphi, Greece. And while of importance to the Greeks, you will read why it is of far greater importance to the citizens of the US and France. The message is that the neoconservatives that control both the US and its European vassals are looking toward the day when they can launch their nuclear attack on Russia and China with gullible Americans and Europeans becoming "collateral damage." The best, and perhaps only, way to avoid this horror is to ignore the lying "mainsteam media,” put away your cognitive dissonances, and make your voices heard in Washington and Paris. Digesting PCR's seminal lecture below can be your starting point.

Putin went on to say:

Thursday, June 18, 2015

The Soviet Union lost between 20 and 27 million troops and civilians in the course of winning WW II, so they have absolutely no intentions to foment a WW III. On the other hand, the American neocons, whose country has never been invaded and who have their own underground shelters already prepared, are hankering for the big one. Thus the US’s original agreements between NATO and Russia, including the clause that neither side should be considered an enemy, are now being flagrantly violated by arming NATO countries bordering on Russia. And the populace of these border countries are being aroused by lies claiming that Russia has been attacking Ukraine …a ludicrous claim given that Russia could have won such a war in a couple days had it wished to do so. But finally a couple days ago Vladimir Putin, certainly no war monger, has ordered 40 new intercontinental ballistic missiles to be added to the country's current “mutually assured destruction” deterrent. Unfortunately, the neocons think they need no such deterent...

New York Times: U.S. poised to put heavy weaponry in East Europe

“Russia’s increasingly aggressive actions around NATO’s borders…”
NATO keeps moving its borders up to Russia’s borders.
“Professor [Mark] Galeotti said. ‘This is about telling Russia that you’re getting closer to a real red line.’”
NATO’s red line is a noose, drawing tighter and tighter around Russia and any country that defies the Anglo-American alliance.

This article is typical mainstream US “journalism”. Unless a reader follows the extensive equipment buildup that has been taking place for months,  and the ongoing, intensifying US/NATO military exercises in the region,  they would conclude from this article that the US and NATO have only a weak force in Europe.

© Oksana Dzadan/Associated Press Stryker vehicles from the Army’s 2nd Cavalry Regiment took part in a military exercise in Riga, Latvia. RIGA, Latvia — In a significant move to deter possible Russian aggression in Europe, the Pentagon is poised to store battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other heavy weapons for as many as 5,000 American troops in several Baltic and Eastern European countries, American and allied officials say.

In that agreement, NATO pledged that, “in the current and foreseeable security environment,” it would not seek “additional permanent stationing of substantial ground combat forces” in the nations closer to Russia.The agreement also says that “NATO and Russia do not consider each other as adversaries.” Many in the alliance argue that Russia’s increasingly aggressive actions around NATO’s borders have made that pact effectively moot.

The ERWC is more important than ever now that the CSU is discontinuing the English Placement Test for fall 2018 and ending its current system of remediation. Academic preparation still matters! The CSU will continue to rely on 11th grade testing (CAASPP/Smarter Balanced), as well as ACT and SAT to identify students as ready, conditionally ready, and not yet ready, and conditionally ready students can still demonstrate readiness by completing an approved ERWC course. Those who are not yet ready will be required to participate in a credit-bearing Early Start course during the summer before enrollment at a CSU and may have the option of a one-year “stretch” first-year composition course. All our data indicate that better prepared students graduate more quickly and in higher numbers, and ERWC remains one of the best ways to equip students with that preparation.

When we read fiction novels, we are taking in narrative text. This type of text tells a story and generally uses a lot of emotion. The opposite of this is expository text , which exists to provide facts in a way that is educational and purposeful. The text is fact-based with the purpose of exposing the truth through a reliable source. True and deliberate expository text will focus on educating its reader. Other descriptors of exposition are clear, concise, and organized writing. Expository text gets to the point quickly and efficiently.

Patty Simcox is a character in the 1978 movie, Grease.

She is a cheesy do-good cheerleader, beautiful and highly intelligent, though to Rizzo, she's the "bad seed of Rydell High". She was played by Susan Buckner in the movie, by Elle McLemore in the 2016 live performance, and by Lauren Haine (alongside her co-star and singer, Matthew Lloyd whom played Haine's love interest) in the 2017 play version.

Simcox is often the butt of the Pink Ladies and T-Birds jokes, for example, Rizzo snuck an apple on her seat just as she sat down, and pushed her off the bench along with Sandy.

Kenickie also pranked her many times in the film, such as hiding a rat in her school bag in the middle of a lesson.

At the National Dance-Off, which she had organized, Patty came in wearing a blue strapless dress, blue high heels, a blue hair piece and blue gloves, basically all blue, but nothing really went well for her. She was laughed at from the start, she got covered in tissue paper when a prop fell on her, when she finally got her chance to actually compete in the dance off, she ran out in the middle of the whole school (and live television cameras) and jumped and danced.

She then ran off crying while everyone cheered and laughed. She was then seen again at the dance when Danny and ChaCha won the competition, she is again teased for her humiliation.

Humiliated at the dance.

After the dance, her exposed underpants are seemingly forgotten, as she sees Rizzo at school, and teases her by telling a group of her friends 'she's the one I was telling you about'.

In the final scene, she is shown to be with Tom Chisum.
