Dr Stanley Griffin (right) with students visiting the UWI Museum. Full disclosure: These were not the Carib Civ students! We didn’t catch him on camera that time. by Dr Stanley H Griffin, UWI Archives The privilege was mine to oversee the UWI Museum during the recent absence of the Curator. One of the ‘duties assigned’ was to look out for and guide undergraduate students taking the Caribbean Civilization aka Carib Civ Foundation Course. Their assignment was to find and take a photograph with an artefact that represents or illustrates one of several theoretical concepts used to explain the socio-cultural experience of Caribbean life. So armed with their phones, and theories, they came to the Museum, and ask they did! I found touring these students very interesting for several reasons. 1. None of the items on display were created, maintained, used, or donated to the Museum because they fit some theoretical construct. From the Royal Charter, with the Queen’s Signet; to Chapel Vases from Lord Hailes–Governor General, West Indies; to matriculation and Chancellor’s gowns, and dishes from the various halls, the artefacts represent particular activities of institutional life and personal perspectives. The Royal Charter, for example, was the document needed to operate as an institution of teaching, learning and research. The Chapel Vases were to be used to brighten the decor of the Chapel for worship. Gowns added formality to ceremonies, dinners, meetings and even classes. The various glasses, tea cups and tea pots were for the refreshment of students. However, they were all designed within a time period and social context that in some ways illustrated the various theories the students were now interrogating. 2. All of the items on display are markers of particular events and personalities that have shaped the UWI into the institution it is today. Even though these artefacts are signifiers of facts, meaning they are proof that these persons existed and events happened, they are also the ‘stuff of stories’. There are the details in perspectives and will have differing meanings to the wide variety of roles and persons in the university community. These stories are as priceless as the materials themselves. Imagine the relief of administrators when the official Royal Charter arrived after the ‘drowning’ of the 1st Charter. Surely the chapel decor committee was pleased about the gift of new vases, with its clear instructional sketches on how to use them. The crockery certainly added ‘umph’ to hall rivalry and prestige to hall events. These artefacts certainly helped to form the student and work life of Mona Campus. 3. All these items, however, fit the theoretical constructs that certainly explain life in the Caribbean. These artefacts illustrate the ‘ethnocentrism’ of colonial influence on university governance and student life. These artefacts are poignant markers of our past, with its racism, class-ism, and cultural subjugation. All this is happening on the grounds of the former sugar plantation, where the enslaved experienced the racism, class-ism, and cultural subjugation, that were part of plantation life. At the same time, these artefacts are testament to the quest of rising above and beyond these theoretical norms and experiences, the crafting of an institution, personalities and a legacy of excellence that has propelled students onto the world stage. Looking back, from the vantage point of 70 years on, there is much to see and show our new undergrads how far we as a Caribbean society and university have overcome and developed. There is still much ground to cover, but we must still recognise and celebrate how far we’ve come. The Caribbean Civilisation course provides non-Humanities and Education faculty students the opportunity to acknowledge and reflect on Caribbean history and culture.Given that the students taking this course are not presumed to have an arts background (or worse: interest!), they often bring unexpected perspectives that can spark really interesting discussions on interpretations of theory and fact. Visits to the Museum, among their other assignments, allow these students to tangibly link theory to reality and question their current and future place in our Society. This is indeed the purpose of the Museum (as well as Archives–since I actually work in one.): We place the past in context, and offer the visitor an opportunity to interpret and challenge their perceptions in order to better their understanding. So in responding to that popular title question, “Yes, everything inside here represents Ethnocentrism – in some way!” Now, let’s hope they all got A’s for their projects. Dr Stanley Griffin is Assistant Archivist and Officer-in-Charge at the University Archives. For another story on our Carib Civ engagement, this one a 2017 flashback, check out:

Dundee is home to The Scottish Dance Theatre, The Rep. Theatre, The Gardyne Theatre, The Whitehall Theatre, The McManus Art Gallery and will soon be home to The V&A museum. We have staggeringly beautiful views and incidentally, the only city in Britain where you can still see Red Squirrels. Dundee has nurtured world class medical research, top notch software companies and two universities whose reputations are second to none. We have The Sensation Science Centre, Captain Scott’s ship RRS Discovery and The only full-time public observatory in the UK. For a population of 140,000 that’s surprising.

Firstly Veganuary for those who may not be sure is challenge which 100s of thousands of people across many countries undertake each year. It involves being completely vegan for 31 days during the Month of January. According to the official Veganuary website there are 3 main reasons why people sign up Veganuary. - To protect animals - To help the environment - To improve health - Health improvements suggested were a reduction in blood pressure, cholesterol and reduced risk of type-2 diabetes however there is no mention of weight loss. So why do we hear so much about weight loss and plant-based diets? Reasons you might lose weight. 1. If your previous diet contained a lot of high fat meat products such as bacon, charcuterie type meats or steak then removing these may tip your overall calorie balance into a deficit. Similarly if you were previously consuming a lot of foods such as pastries, biscuits, ice cream or cheese then again removing these will begin to reduce your overall calorie intake. 2. Many plant based whole-foods are naturally lower in calories. This means you can eat a higher volume of food but without a large amount of energy. Food you may start eating more of include vegetables, beans, lentils & pulses. These foods are also high in fibre which means you will feel full and actually may not be able to consume a large volume. These factors combined can often lead to a reduction in overall calorie intake. Including more fruit, veg and varieties of fibre also has a positive effect on gut health and the gut microbiome and research suggests that a higher diversity of gut bacteria may influence weight and the ability to lose weight. But you’ll need longer than one month to make significant changes. 3. Vegan diets tend to require more planning and if you start to do this then you may naturally start to reduce the amount of processed or convenience foods you consume. The action of signing up to a month long challenge may automatically make you become more mindful of your food choices and this may make you consciously or subconsciously manage your meals and snacks more carefully. Why you might not lose weight. The rise in popularly of Veganuary and plant-based diets has driven a huge increase in like for like food options. For example Gregg’s vegan sausage rolls, the McPlant burger, Vegan Ben & Jerry’s, Vegan brioche, croissants & pain au chocolat. Therefore is it becoming very easy to eat a high calorie, low nutrient diet whilst maintaining the Vegan diet. If this approach is taken its unlikely that there will be any change in calorie intake or you may even begin to gain weight. Vegan diets require careful planing, particularly in the early days. This requires time, energy and head space and if this isn’t something you commit to then it can be very easy to eat more processed, pre-packaged foods which may not be as nutrient dense and contain more calories than a home cooked meal. Like all things in the world of nutrient and weigh loss there are so many nuances in this area but in my professional opinion its much more important to focus on the health benefits of including more plants, more fibre and more whole-foods in the diet (whether this be full vegan or not) than whether you will be seeing the pounds fall off.

A couple of weeks ago on twitter, I made the statement that it’s easier for a performing artist to remember their bad shows than their good shows. I wasn’t suggesting that good shows are meaningless or unappreciated, my point was that we remember the bad shows more often because they provide a larger opportunity for learning and growth. In most instances, it’s hard to justify a reevaluation of your strategies when you’re being successful. But as soon as you fail, you start to question everything. In my opinion, the best performers aren’t the best because they have a talent others lack, they’re the best because they’ve all had bad experiences that made them take their level of preparation and performance up a notch.

Ken Graves was in England from September 10 through September 18. Bruce and Lola Graves (descended from John Greaves of St. Mary�s Co., MD, gen. 247) went also. The main purpose of the trip was to meet as many descendants of Greaves, Graves, Grieve(s), etc., families as possible, and try to gather genealogical information and DNA testing samples from them. The times and places of each of the 8 scheduled meetings were as follows. Tuesday, May 9 - Departure from the U.S. Wednesday, May 10, 7:00 p.m., Chester, Dene Hotel, 95 Hoole Rd. Both Greaves and Graves family members attended. Brian Johnson (a Graves descendant) was of great help in arranging the meeting. The walk on the city wall, the old part of the city, and the view of the horse racing grounds were very interesting. Thursday, May 11, 7:30 p.m., Keswick, Crosthwaite Church Parish Room. The Lake District is one of the most scenic in England. Both Grave and Graves family members were there. We spent a lot of time after the presentation talking about various Grave and Graves families. Friday, May 12, 5:30 p.m., Sunderland, Old Parish Church, Church St. East at junction with Coronation St., followed by a buffet. Robert Moon and Sally Schoon of the Friends of Sunderland Old Parish Church were of great help in hosting us and arranging the meeting. The GFA is now an affiliated society with them. At the meeting were members of the Grieve, Grieves, Greaves and Graves families. Saturday, May 13, 1:00 p.m., York, King's Manor, University of York, Exhibition Square, next to the City Art Gallery. Both Graves and Greaves family members were there. The city wall and the old part of the city were very interesting. Sunday, May 14, 4:00 p.m., Boston, Travel Inn, Wainfleet Rd. (A52) near junction with Spilsby Rd. (A16). There were only Graves family members there. Monday, May 15, 7:00 p.m., Coventry, Old Coventrians Rugby Football Club, Tile Hill Lane, at junction of A45 and B4102. Geoff Barwick, chairman of the Coventry Family History Society, was our very gracious host at this meeting. He and his wife even treated us to a delicious supper before the meeting. Both Graves and Greaves family members were there. The following morning we visited Mickleton Manor and Church before driving to Cottenham. Tuesday, May 16, 6:30 p.m., Cottenham, in the library at Cottenham Village College, High Street. Only Graves family members were there. Chris Graves, originally from Cottenham, was very helpful in arranging the meeting. He gave us a tour of Cambridge. Wednesday, May 17, 7:00 p.m., London, Hyde Park Family History Centre, 54-68 Exhibition Rd. We were treated to lunch by Adrian Graves. Only Graves family members attended the meeting. I was obviously rather tired by this meeting, and was glad I hadn�t scheduled more meetings. The next day I did a combination walking and open-top bus tour of London before being driven to Heathrow by Archie Affleck-Graves. The meetings were very successful. Attendance ranged from 6 at the first meeting in Chester to 35 at Keswick, and generally was around 20. We were in competition with the horse races in Chester, a jazz festival in Keswick, and the UEFA Champions League football (soccer) final in London. (Unfortunately for the English fans, Barcelona beat Arsenal 2-1 to win their first European Cup in 14 years.) There was no obvious advantage to holding a meeting in a city such as London versus in a small town such as Keswick. 14 DNA kits were distributed, most for testing on the spot, all for the 37-marker Y-DNA test. Several other people promised to order a testing kit from the website. (To order, go to the GFA website at scroll down to the DNA section, and click on the link for �How to sign up�.) The DNA test results are expected back by early July. Although much genealogical information was gathered, a major challenge is to get more from all those tested plus other family members. Prior to the trip, I sent press releases to all newspapers in each area, contacted local history and genealogy societies, and sent letters to those with the surname who were listed in online telephone directories. I was also interviewed by BBC radio while I was there. As a result of this publicity, contact was made with others who couldn�t attend but who may provide family information in the future.

Bullying can lead to a whole range of symptoms which interfere with your quality of life, normal functioning and your work. Victims of workplace bullying often describe symptoms which might include upset stomach tearful and crying suicidal thoughts sad and withdrawn rebellious or impulsive actions muscle twitches or trembling loss of self-esteem and sense of self worth and competency insomnia and/or other sleep problems Inability to concentrate feelings of hopelessness, and/or being trapped feeling fatigue and overtired body pains or unexplained soreness or 'bone weary' acute startle response as well as symptoms identifiable in their own right as Anxiety and Depression. Its important to remember that these symptomatic reactions are normal. They are your mind and body responding to a stressful and uncontrollable situation An important thing to bear in mind in a situation like this is that the main issue has got to be to get the bullying to stop. Along with an opportunity for you to heal and regain confidence and health, to be able to return to work and simply 'do your job.' In a situation like this always, always talk to your doctor. Talk to your Union about the best way to deal with the situation. Fear of reprisal and losing a job often prevents victims from taking action, and with good reason, supervisors can be reluctant to deal with bullies and often claims based on bullying are challenged and declined. I have known Employers lie about workplace culture and behaviour in order to protect themselves and their Workers Compensation premium. Sadly the most common outcome where bullying occurs is the victim resigns or ends up being sacked. The bullying doesn't stop there, someone else then becomes the target. The problem hasn't been resolved and there has already been a massive cost to the company or department, not forgetting the cost to the victim. Bullying Policy Anti Bullying policies are an essential part of any workplace today. Policies and procedures with teeth that have clear actionable steps when there is an issue. Processes have traditionally & historically been dealt with 'confidentially.' when these situations arise, but in fact this inevitably aids the bully in my opinion. A healthy dose of sunshine and accountability is really what needs to happen. There is no shame in stating that you have been bullied. And certainly no shame in being clear about expecting your employer/manager/director to make the workplace safe by dealing with the bully and the bullying behaviour directly. No, Bullying is not a 'personality clash.' There's no such thing. And no, there aren't two sides of the story in bullying either. Workplace bullying, however subtle is a form of workplace violence. Things that don't work in bullying situations. Keeping quiet Mediation - ineffective. Up to you of course, I know of no occasion where this ever has worked. Not raising the issue in writing - in other words create a paper trail. Use email. Not speaking to your Union or association first - Off site personnel are often preferable. Thinking you can get through this on your own. Not talking to your GP Thinking there's something wrong with you if you have to talk to a psychologist - there really isn't.

On Saturday, 24 September 2016, I drove via Durbanville and Wellington to the top of Bainskloof to join a group of about 18 hikers on a hike organized by the Paarl/Wellington section of the Mountain Club of South Africa.  The hike was to do the Happy Valley Trail in the Limietberg Nature Reserve that start at Eerste Tol and take the trail all the way to the Junction pool and then back the same way to where we parked our cars.  See the map below of the trail. Although the trail is fairly long, about 16km out and back, it is relatively easy with no climbing or any scrambling. That being said, remember that any hike can be difficult when you not fit or have some ailment so be prepared always. Along the way you will come across various historical landmarks like this monument for students from Wellington college that drowned in the early 1900’s. Part of the trail is called Murasie which mean ruins and although nothing remains it is where a house was built around 1930.  The story goes that a person from Germany build the house but before he could complete it, he died.  He only had one son and he died during the first world war.  The house was eventually completed by the German’s wife but she did not want to stay there all by herself.  It was rented out and the house burned down and only the ruins remained which then got occupied by vagrants. The story goes further that a hiking couple was murdered by the vagrants that was staying in the ruins and it was then decided by Cape Nature to get rid of the ruins.  Here is a photo of all that remains, an open clearing that is perfect for having breakfast on your hike. The last history lesson for today is that when Thomas Bain build the pass over the mountain, he was asked to build a duct to relay water from the river down to the farms and town.  The price that he quoted was too expensive and the farmers decided to build it themselves and the story goes that it costed them twice as much as was quoted.  No explosives was used and the duct was cut out by hand, this is what it look like today and still being used. Photo Video, sit back and enjoy Route Map – Happy Valley Trail, Limietberg, Bainskloof Summer is upon us here in the Southern Hemisphere and clean those hiking shoes or boots and hit the trails.  This one is just the right one to get going without to much strain.

The Miramonte Intersectional Feminist Alliance (MIFA) partnered with Her Drive on April 29. Her Drive is a non-profit organization that donates feminine products, menstrual products, clothes, toiletries, and other goods to underprivileged and displaced communities. The organization focuses specifically on Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities. MIFA collected donations in a box in the Wellness Center from April 27 to May 7. “Her Drive is a donation drive that supports individuals that lack access to basic hygiene necessities, primarily women. ‘Her Drive’ is a nonprofit organization that originated in Chicago before branching out to the entirety of the U.S. I was inspired to bring Her Drive on campus as a contribution to MIFA and initiate our first project with the co-presidents,” MIFA member and junior Aya Banaja said. The Her Drive organization began in Chicago, Illinois, in June 2020. “We provide bras, menstrual care, and general hygiene products to people in need in an effort to combat period and hygiene poverty,” the Her Drive website said. The most recent statistics on the site show that the organization raised 11,027 new or gently-used bras, 165,104 menstrual care products, and 100,072 general hygiene items since its founding. “The Her Drive is important because so many people still do not have access to resources that would significantly improve their quality of life,” MIFA president Anaya Budayr said. “These items are expensive and can’t always be purchased by homeless people and individuals in underprivileged communities, which is why it’s important for us to provide them with the support they need. One of our purposes as a club is to do what we can to support marginalized communities, especially locally where we have the most impact.” Banaja and MIFA co-presidents Budayr and junior Zoe Moga applied to host their own drive to the official organization through a Google form sent directly through the Her Drive website to the Executive Team, led by college students Alexa Mohsenzadeh and Jenica Baron. Once approved by Mohsenzadeh and Baron, MIFA set up a box in the Wellness Center and designed an informational poster raising awareness for the fundraiser. “Products accepted by Her Drive are necessary items such as pads and tampons, or items like bras, socks, deodorant, hair care products, and so much more! You can scan an on-campus poster, and a list of all accepted items will appear on your screen! If you can’t donate, you are always encouraged to spread the word to others who may be able to!” Banaja said. “The goal of this drive is to empower and educate the next generation of youth leaders to work to eliminate period poverty in their local communities!” This is the first large event hosted by the MIFA Club. Along with this project, Budayr and Moga have been working with the rest of the club on getting added consent and sexual assault education in the mandatory tenth grade Human and Social Development classes. Additionally, Budayr and Moga facilitate discussions on intersectional feminism and issues concerning women and women’s rights at their weekly meetings on Mondays at 1 p.m. Leave a Comment About the Contributor Malayna Chang, Opinion Editor This is my third year in The Mirador and I am very excited to be the Opinion Editor this year!

The book of Exodus plays a crucial role in the development of God’s relationship to Israel, as the Israelites recognize theglory of YHWH and are allowed only glimpses of what they hope tosee in full. Exodus 33:12-23 is wedged between the Israelites’ golden calf idolatry and the renewal of God’s covenant with Israel. Moses’ intercession is the crucial turning point where God decides to keep His promise to be present with His people as they continue their journey through the wilderness. This promise is later realized as God’s presence descends on the tabernacle at the end of Exodus. In the midst of the puzzling merging of the Pentateuch’s sources in Exodus 33, Moses’ intercession reveals the complications of a divine-human friendship and God’s willingness to communicate with His people in spite of their sin.

Benson Omalla scored a first half brace as Gor Mahia defeated KCB 2-1 in the opening match of the 2021-2022 FKF Premier League match played at Thika Stadium on Saturday. Omalla gave Gor the lead in the seventh minute after tapping in a rebound from close range after Sammy Onyango’s curling effort hit the cross bar. Two minutes later, the former Western Stima striker stretched KÓgalo’s lead to 2-0 after heading past Gabriel Andika in goal for KCB from a corner set piece delivered by Peter Lwasa. With a two goal advantage, Gor kept on pressing for a third goal which they almost scored in the 17th minute when Omalla combined with Onyango who forced a decent save from Andika. However, against the run of play, KCB pulled one goal back in the half an hour mark when Henry Onyango tapped in from close range after a poor clearance from Harun Shakava. The match headed to the break with Gor lading the bankers 2-1, a score line that would stand till full time as the former champions hit the ground running in the new season.

With all the rain this autumn we are having a problem with wet leaves trampled in on the the surface of the hard path on Mayfields North. They are rapidly turning into organic mud and can't be removed with a leaf blower or the battery rotary mower we use to pick up and shred leaves in a drier autumn. We have resorted to scraping them off with a wire lawn rake which works but is slow. Does anyone have any better ideas please?

They joke, but something similar to this could be useful for tracking what works reliably, what only sometimes works, and what the underlying problem might actually be. Something this simple wouldn't be good, but it could be a start on something useful.

Leinster management say they're confident Johnny Sexton will return to action against Zebre in the RDS on Friday. Sexton's training with Joe Schmidt at an Ireland camp today and he was back with the province last week, but it was decided the PRO12 interpro against against Ulster was too soon. Backs coach Girvan Dempsey says they had to be patient while the outhalf finished working on his hamstring issues at the Santry Sports Clinic. Elsewhere, there's bad news for Munster - Darren Sweetnam's out of action for six weeks. He injured his knee in the Stephen's Day clash with Leinster and won't return before mid February. In better news for Munster fans though, it's been confirmed Springbok back Jaco Taute can stay on til the end of the season.

When you were in college, you were still eating Ramen, doing No Shave November with your buddies, and washing your body with that gallon-tub of hand soap that you bought at the Dollar Tree. You were a student. You were broke. It was fine. But you’re in the adult world now. Consider getting your own barber or stylist to give you a pro cleanup. Then nail down a morning routine, as well as a regular grooming and hygiene routine. Here are some tips on how to get started. 1. Make the Time When your alarm blasts before it’s even light out and you’re due to hear your boss drone on at the Monday meeting two hours later, the last thing you want to do is fling off your duvet and somersault out of bed. But getting up early and having a schedule will help you feel focused. Figuring out that schedule is up to you; just make sure you stick to it. Eat a healthy breakfast, like yogurt or oatmeal with berries. Hit the gym. Then reward yourself for exercising with a slow, relaxing shower or bath where you can freshen up before really kick-starting your day. 2. Pick the Product Knowing how the male brain works, even a jaunt through your local CVS is enough to overwhelm the average guy. All these deodorants, body washes, soap bottles – they all look the same, right? Maybe, but keep it simple, stupid. Pick out a go-to shampoo, body wash, and face wash. They all do different things. Know them, love them, embrace them. Spend some money on a quality razor, and get lotion that you like, especially if you have sensitive skin and you bleed every time you draw the blade across your jaw and cheeks. On that note, make a signature hot towel straight razor shave from the pros at BSG one of your regular appointments so that you stay sharp all the time. 3. The Full Package Now that you’ve got your wake-up-and-go plan set and your hygiene toolbox at your disposal, think about your whole look. Big-picture here, people. Are you trying to follow the newest hairstyle trends? Do you want to give off a clean-cut, Army-vibe? Beard or no beard? Man bun or no man bun? These are the questions in front of you, and once you answer them, you might as well up your game with the grooming products you use. Stop going on CVS runs. Consult the BSG blog or services page for tips on which high-quality hair products to buy. If this overwhelms you, too, you might start out with just two retail highlights – BSG-featured shampoo, and proper texture liniment. The shampoo moisturizes your scalp and also promotes hair growth. The BSG HCO1 Edition Texture Liniment, meanwhile, is a texturizing cream with a medium hold that can help amp up your style.

This is Caboose #401, currently in the Engine House receiving a new top layer on its roof, a re-painting, and other repairs. ORIGIN Original caboose. HISTORY Caboose #401 was built in 1881 and was originally used by the South Pacific Coast Railroad. In 1902 the car was transferred to the Nevada & California RR (Southern Pacific), and given the number #16. It was used in Maintenance of Way service (railroad maintenance). In 1947 it was re-numbered #401. At times it carried people as well as freight, but reverted exclusively to caboose service until the narrow gauge shut down. Placed on display in 1960 at Laws, it was re-activated with repairs in September 2017 for duty as a passenger/caboose car behind Engine #18 during the Slim Princess Reunion. In 2021 it is receiving a new top layer on its roof and a re-painting. < Home Interior of Caboose #401 This is the original Caboose #1 which can be found near the Boxcar Village. As part of the Slim Princess train from the very beginning, it saw service from 1883-1900

The Pennsylvania Department of Correction operates 29 correctional facilities (prisons) and about 50,000 prisoners (inmates) each year. The assignments of inmates to appropriate correctional facilities is a complex task. Well over 80 rules need to be considered. Many of them, such as the security of prison units, yield hard constraints; while others, such assigning the inmates to prisons close to their home, are arranged in a preference hierarchy because it is impossible to satisfy all for all inmates. We are giving an overview of the complexity of the problem; discuss the data/rule collection phase of the project by using decision trees; discuss a how the MILO model is developed by using a weighted penalty objective function. Finally we discuss further extensions of the model, including waiting lists for mental/educational/job training programs, and transfers between facilities. Based on joint work with L. Plebani, M. Shahabsafa, G. Wilson and K. Bucklen.

This Darius saw fit to appoint a hundred and twenty lords lieutenant, who should govern the provinces of his empire; 2 and over these, three viceroys, of whom Daniel was one; governor should be answerable to viceroy, and the king’s grace should not be troubled with such matters. 3 Yet governor was none or viceroy that could compare with Daniel, so richly God inspired him; 4 and soon the king’s thought was, to put the whole empire under his care. Right gladly would his rivals have found opportunity to discredit him in the king’s eyes; but no, handle or pretext they could find none, so faithful was he, so far removed from all breath of suspicion. 5 And at last they were fain to admit, if charge was to be found against Daniel at all, keeping of his God’s law must be the ground of it. 6 So they took the king by surprise; Long life, they said, to the king’s grace! 7 Here is a design upon which we are all agreed, viceroy and magistrate and governor and senator and judge; that an edict should go out under the royal seal forbidding thy subjects to make any request of god or man these next thirty days, save only of thyself. And if any man disobeys, it shall be at his peril; he is for the lion-pit. 8 May it please the king’s grace to give this design of ours effect, and make the decree unalterable, under law of the Medes and Persians, the law there is no amending. 9 Draw up the edict he did, and signed it. 10 As for Daniel, when he heard it was law, he took himself home; and now as ever, three times a day, he would open his chamber window towards Jerusalem eastwards, doing reverence on bended knee and praising his God. 11 Be sure they surprised him at it, these enemies of his; found him a-praying to his God, 12 and went off to remind the king of his edict. Had not a law been enacted, prayer there should be none to god or man those thirty days following, save to the king; and that on pain of the lions? Law it is, said he, and law of the Medes and Persians there is no amending. 13 Why then, they asked the king, what of Daniel, Daniel the Jewish exile, that for law and edict cares nothing? Three times a day he offers his God prayer. 14 Pitiful hearing was this for the king’s ear; to save Daniel was all his thought, and to that end he laboured till set of sun; 15 but the trap they had devised was too crafty for him, and ever they put him in mind there was no help for it. By the law Medes and Persians use, let the king once make a decree, there is no amending it. 16 At last the king gave orders Daniel should be sent for and shut up in the lion-pit; So faithful a servant, he told him, thy God must needs deliver. 17 And with that, a stone was brought and set down at the pit’s entrance, which the king sealed and his nobles both; there should be no interfering with Daniel. 18 Home went the king, and supperless to bed; he would have no food brought him, and sleep he could not. 19 With the first light of day, the king was up and stirring; to the lion-pit he hastened, 20 and as he came up to it, he cried out most lamentably: Daniel, worshipper of the God that lives, thou wert ever his true servant; has power of his availed to rescue thee from the lions? 21 Long life to the king’s grace, Daniel answered; 22 angel of his did his errand, and stopped the lions’ mouths. What harm should they do me, one that my God sees guiltless? And for thyself, lord king, nought did I to earn thy displeasure. 23 Right glad the king was to learn of Daniel’s safety; be sure he gave orders they should bring Daniel up out of the pit, and out of the pit they brought him, unscathed from head to foot; such reward they have that trust in God. 24 Thereupon, at the king’s bidding, they fetched his accusers, and thrust them into the lion-pit, their wives and children with them. But these never reached the floor of it, so quickly the lions fell upon them, and broke all the bones of them to nothing.✻ 25 Then Darius sent out a proclamation to all the world, without distinction of nation, race or language, wishing them well, 26 and enjoining this decree upon them, that all the subjects of his empire should hold the God of Daniel in awe and reverence. Here is a God that lives, he told them, a God that abides for ever; such a reign as his there is no overthrowing, such power as his the ages cannot diminish. 27 His to deliver, his to save, his to shew wondrous portents in high heaven and on earth beneath, the God who saved Daniel from the lions.

It was a muggy Monday evening as the Lady Bulldogs of Canton High School took on the Sharon Eagles in a Davenport division clash. Canton came into the game fresh off a 3-3 draw against Milford and was looking to gain some ground on current leader of the Davenport division, North Attleboro. The game got off to a relatively pedestrian pace with neither team able to gain an edge on their opponent. “It took us a while to get things going” said senior forward Lilah Sullivan before adding “…but we definitely ended on a high note” The few Eagle chances that did arise were thwarted largely due to great play on the defensive end, led by Sarah Connolly (Sr.), Carly Hutchinson (Sr.), Sarah Collins (Jr.), and Leianne Brune (Jr.). A couple of nice plays by senior goalkeeper Lindsey Barrett also played a role in the first half shutout. On the offensive end the Bulldogs were able to gain some momentum as the half went along; particularly finding success in bringing the ball up the sidelines. But despite a couple decent chances they were unable to find the back of the net leaving the score 0-0 after 40 minutes of play. The second half was when things got interesting. The Bulldogs struck first as forward Olivia Rodman (Fr.) banged home the go ahead goal off of a nice feed from Lilah Sullivan (Sr.) midway through the second half. However, Sharon was quick to respond with a goal of their own off a juicy rebound in front of the net to tie the game at 1 goal apiece. Canton reacted well to the adversity and once again took control of the pace of play and generated some excellent chances. Unfortunately for them they just couldn’t seem to capitalize and with only stoppage time left, it seemed as though they would have to settle for a draw. But right as both teams prepared for the final whistle, Elisa Diletizia (Fr.) was able to sneak behind the Sharon Defense and buried the game winning goal off a feed from Riley Duserick (Sr.). “Elisa did a great job of getting the goal to win it” said senior Kendra Farrelly (who was sidelined with an ankle injury) adding that both Diletizia and Rodman have had a great impact despite being only freshmen. “They are both great play-makers and are really just great players who complement each other at the forward spot”. The goal proved to be the difference as Canton sent the hometown fans happy with a 2-1 victory. With the win, Canton improves to second place in the Davenport division (2-2-2) as the Eagles continue their search for their first win of the season (0-6). ​ Despite the slow start to the game this was one of the more exciting games I’ve seen from the girls’ team. I’m a guy who lives for dramatics, so a game winning goal in stoppage time had me feeling like a kid in a candy shop. As for the student section, it was a surprisingly decent turnout for a Monday night after a long day at the office (School). Not the best effort from the Stoody in the first half but when things got crucial Bulldog nation showed up; so let’s get to some awards. Fan of the Game: Ben Cohen Ben is admittedly not the most outspoken kid in the world, but when someone can claim their “finsta” as their “rinsta” you know that’s a kid who has got a one liner or two in them. In short, I don’t want Ben at more games; I need it!

Kenya Airways has upped frequency of its flights to India from three times a week to daily, effective today (March 28). The carrier said it would add more flights from April 17, bringing the total to ten flights a week. The carrier upped the frequency after India lifted restrictions limiting the number of flights to only three times a week under the ‘air bubble’ agreement. From today, all flights will depart Nairobi at 20h50 and arrive in Mumbai at 05h35 the next day. Return flights will depart Mumbai at 02h25 and arrive in Nairobi at 06h10. The airline hopes to tap into the opportunity offered by the return to air travel as the aviation industry recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic. The government of Kenya recently waived PCR test requirements for visitors holding a valid COVID-19 vaccination certificate, which is expected to ease travel to the country.

To avid fans, all the critics who loved Star Wars: The Last Jedi are on the Dark Side. / Lucasfilm Ltd. It’s always disappointing to find out that critics consider one of your favorite movies to be an utter gaffe from beginning to end—and it’s just as strange to hear industry experts fawn over a flick that you thought was the snooze-fest of the century. With the rise of online review aggregators that feature ratings from both professionals and the general public, it’s become only too easy to see just how giant those discrepancies can be. To discover which films are the most divisive, RAVE Reviews compiled Rotten Tomatoes's "Top 100" lists from 17 different genres into one massive collection of 967 films, and then ranked them in order of how large the difference was between the critic score and the audience score. The top spot went to Knock Down the House, a 2019 Netflix documentary about four working-class women who ran for Congress, including New York’s Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. To critics, it was a flawless work of visual journalism worthy of a rare 100 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences disagreed with those critics by a full 82 percent, awarding it an abysmal 18 percent. For 17 of the 20 films on the list, the story looks similar: Critics gave them a gold star, while audiences were unimpressed. The Rian Johnson-directed Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017), for example, earned a glowing 91 percent rating from critics, but it apparently failed to live up to George Lucas’s legacy in the eyes of most moviegoers—its audience score is just 43 percent. However, there are a few crowd-pleasers that critics didn’t embrace. Father-son duo Donald and Kiefer Sutherland teamed up for the 2016 Western Forsaken, which entertained audiences enough to receive an 87 percent rating. Professional reviewers found it unimaginative and forgettable, giving it a below-average grade of 42 percent. If there’s an overall takeaway from this data, it’s that critical acclaim definitely doesn’t guarantee that you’re going to enjoy a film—and choosing a guilty pleasure over Citizen Kane (1941) is totally justified.

Thank you Shauna Bickley, author of Lies of the Dead, for sharing your thoughts on writing and your new book with my blog! Guest Post: My Writing Space Huge thanks to Charlene for giving me this opportunity to tell you a little bit about my writing space and my latest book, Lies of the Dead. I was born and brought up in England, but now live ‘down under’ in Auckland, New Zealand. Every once in a while I try and count the number of houses we’ve lived in – it’s a lot, and I usually give up. For my day job I write non-fiction books and materials for training workshops, and for the past five years I’ve worked for myself and mostly from home. My writing space changes with each of our moves, and the size varies depending on available space. I guess because we’ve moved so often I’m not that fixated about having specific things around me. At the moment I actually have the luxury of my own small office – the spare bedroom! It’s useful for doing admin type things and closing the door when the rest of the world is noisy, but I don’t find it very good for being creative. My favourite place is the dining table – the living area is large and we have ranch sliders (French windows) leading out to a sunny deck, so the room is light and airy and I have a view of the sea from there. My must haves are my laptop, my office chair and quiet. I’m definitely not a writer who can work with lots of noise around. I started writing my current novel when we lived in our previous house, which was very small. I mostly sat on the couch with the laptop on my knee. I finished the book after we moved here, sitting at the dining table and staring out of the window at the view! Good for creative thought, but not necessarily for productivity. Lies of the Dead is a mystery/suspense tale about three siblings, Tom, Andi and Liam. What Liam has done is the focus of the story, but the narrative is from Tom and Andi’s viewpoint as they try to discover why their younger brother killed himself. Here is a little about the book. What would you risk to find the truth? How well do we know those closest to us? When Liam kills himself, his older brother Tom needs to know why suicide was the only solution. Tom, and his sister Andi, search for answers but don't know who they can believe? Are Liam's friends and associates the people they claim to be? Tom and Andi are propelled into a world where their ideas of right and wrong don't exist, and where people demand what neither of them possesses. Liam's legacy of deceit is dangerous, and when Andi and her twin daughters are threatened, Tom realises that truth may have too high a price. If you like mystery/suspense books on the not-so-gruesome end of the scale I hope you enjoy Lies of the Dead.

MARTINEZ, Calif. – After what can only be described as high drama, the Martinez City Council approved a series of resolutions to allow a new city park at Traditions at the Meadow, a 65-home development on the site of the former Pine Meadow Golf Course to proceed. According to remarks by City Attorney Veronica Nebb, the Council approved the development and resolved to go ahead with approval of only necessary park site improvements at a cost of about $90,100, but will have until December 31, 2019, to do more careful planning for park improvements, and to work on the financing. A legal settlement that ended more than five years of civic acrimony over the project called for park plans to be fast-tracked. Public meetings were held in quick succession within a month. There was also a practical reason for haste. The developer has scheduled preliminary grading to be done before the rainy season. Former golf course property owner Christine Dean lives next to the development site and has spent 10 years trying to resolve issues with the property. She had already removed the contents of an old clubhouse to a huge tent on her property, as trees were removed and grading began. September 18, was the deadline for the Council to pass resolutions confirming the agreement, and when it appeared that might not happen, developer David Sanson of DeNova Homes, Inc. made it clear that the alternative would be another court battle. Even so, city staff and the Parks, Recreation, Marina and Cultural Commission (PRMCC) advised that the council take more time to make final decisions based on firmer numbers for improvement and maintenance costs and to secure financing for them. “We need a little more time to determine the costs. We need to be careful,” Christina Ratcliffe, community and economic development director commented. “The whole timeline was very fast.” City staff and parties to the agreement envisioned the use of a Mello-Roos type district tax, but it became obvious that the details of that were not settled. The Council admitted they had some of the same financial concerns. A barebones park plan appeared to cost more than the $1 million to be provided by the developer. (DeNova also gave the parkland to the city as part of the settlement.) The most vocal opposition to going ahead without more financial certainty came from Councilmember Lara DeLaney. She said she just learned that about $400,000 in developer fees had been waived. “I don’t want to put the city in financial jeopardy,” she said. Mayor Rob Schroder said he was undecided when he arrived, but he trusted David Sanson and the business has a good reputation. “We can work together and make all of this work,” he remarked. After hearing the information given at the meeting, Councilwoman Debbie McKillop agreed. “Glad we have some closure in the Pine Meadow saga,” she commented. Vice Mayor Noralea Gipner felt the same way. “When we signed the deal (settlement), I knew it was going to be fast.” Councilman Mark Ross said he too voted for the deal. He indicated the prospect of renewed legal battles, versus the peace that came to the community with the settlement was valuable. He seemed pretty sure the city would figure out how to handle the maintenance costs. “It’s like ordering a birthday cake and saying the candles are too expensive, and what are we going to do about the wax?” he said. “Our fiduciary responsibility is to do the right thing.” City Attorney Veronica Nebb discerned that the council majority was about to go ahead, and suggested a 10-minute break to work out the details. The use of Mello-Roos-type infrastructure financing requires the developer’s cooperation and agreement. Fortunately, James Hamill, of the Statewide Community Infrastructure Program (SCIP) was there. SCIP financing is what the city plans to use, with a maximum annual cost of $1,975 to new home purchasers in the project. Hamill, all of the council members, planners and attorneys met in the hall. The result was a unanimous “yes” vote on a series of resolutions that confirmed the legal settlement between DeNova Homes, Inc., the City of Martinez, and several grassroots organizations/parties that opposed the original development plans. The resolutions officially rezoned the property to allow development, amended the city’s General Plan to be consistent with that, clarified language in Measure I and addressed other details. Measure I was essentially an initiative approved by the voters, giving the public the right to vote on plans for the development of property zoned as open space, or basically requiring a zoning change to allow development. There were several lawsuits surrounding the city’s previous approval of nearly 100 homes on the golf course property, and the Measure I initiative was an outgrowth of that. The California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) was created to provide California’s local governments with a tool for the financing of community-based public benefit projects. SCIP is an element of that organization.

Preparing to buy a home can be one of the most exciting times of your life. Your dream property is within your reach—but if you’re not careful, that dream could turn into a nightmare. Some homes can come with problems that aren’t obvious to the untrained eye—meaning you could be facing all sorts of expensive repairs down the line. Thankfully, there’s a way to avoid this horrible scenario: get a home inspection! Home inspections are a vital part of the buying process and can protect you from potentially making a bad investment. What Is a Home Inspection? A home inspection is, essentially, a visual examination of the core components of the house. A professional home inspector will walk through the property, taking note of any faults or safety hazards. That information will be compiled in a report for your benefit. Typically speaking, home inspections will look at: Attics Crawlspaces Basements Walls and Ceilings Floors Doors and Windows Plumbing HVAC Systems Electrical Systems Roofing Foundation Interior and Exterior Features Getting a home inspection is one of the best things you can do as a buyer because it can reassure you that a house is in good condition—or give you the opportunity to back out of the deal if it’s not. The Home Inspection Process Home inspections are incredibly important, but first-time buyers might feel a little overwhelmed at the prospect. However, with a little preparation, you can make sure that things go smoothly. We’ve gone over the basic process below, providing you with the tips you need to succeed. Hire an Inspector The first step is the most obvious one: find the right home inspector! Choosing a solid inspector will determine the quality of the report you’ll receive, so it’s important to think about your choices carefully. To start, try taking a look at their reviews. This will give you a better idea of the individual’s experience and how they operate. From there, compile a list of potential inspectors and create some questions to ask them. Some of the most useful things you can ask prospective inspectors include: How much experience do you have? What are your certifications? Can I see a sample report? What will the inspection cover? This information will help you get a better idea of their qualifications, which you can compare and contrast with other professionals to determine which is right for you. Prepare for the Inspection Once you’ve chosen a home inspector, they’ll set a date and time for the actual inspection. As the buyer, there isn’t too much you’ll have to do to prepare, but you’ll probably still want to keep a couple of things in mind. First, make sure you have information on any problems the seller already disclosed. By giving this to your inspector, you can make sure these problems are looked over. Second, make a note of any questions and concerns you have about the home. Your inspector can clarify things and give you peace of mind. Once your inspector arrives, the actual process can begin. Typically speaking, the inspection will take between two and three hours, though the actual amount of time will depend on the size and condition of the house. Ask your inspector if you can come along to observe and ask questions; if they say no, then make sure there’s still time set aside to talk about things later. Get the Inspection Report Once the inspection is completed, your inspector will compile all of their findings into a report. Some reports are available within 24 hours, while others may take a couple of days to receive; make sure you check with your inspector on the time frame. Many professionals are also willing to go over their reports with you, which can be beneficial to help you get a better idea of the property’s condition. Your inspection report is an invaluable tool. If everything looks okay, then you’re good to go through with the purchase. If it doesn’t, however, then you can use the information on the report to negotiate for repairs, ask for a lower price, or even back out of the deal altogether. Buy a Home without Hidden Problems Getting a home inspection is one of the best things a buyer can do to protect themselves. Choose the right professional and give yourself peace of mind. If you’d like to learn more about the home buying process—and how to manage it—then get in touch with us. We’d be happy to provide you with assistance.

Marquette hockey started off their season with two wins against Wisconsin in Madison this past weekend. The Golden Eagles played two tight games against the Badges. Friday night Marquette held on late to win 5-4 and on Saturday they fought back to win 6-4. Senior forward Adam Benkovich scored two goals in both games, and was the teams leading scorer on the weekend. On Friday, the team started out strong and scored on their first shift of the season. Head Coach Will Jurgensen said he was pleased with their overall performance. “Its always good to get that first win,” Jurgensen said. “But there were lots of areas where you could see it was our first game.” Marquette was tied in both games after the second period. The team was able to fight and pull away to take care of business. Jurgensen said winning close games is a good sign to begin the season. “Its really good to be able to battle and win a tight game,” Jurgensen said. “Right now we are trying to just improve every game.”

The Colgate Maroon-News • April 24, 2014 • Changes to be Implemented at SPW Emma Loftus As the school year draws to a close, we are coming up to one of the most highly anticipated events of the semester: Spring Party Weekend. SPW, as it is known, is a Colgate tradition dating back many decades. There has been speculation amongst the student body about the structure of the weekend this year following two serious events from last year. The first involved a stabbing at a late night, school-sponsored event and the second was the hospitalization of a Hamilton High School student who was rushed to the hospital after collapsing from alcohol poisoning at an event open to the public. In response to those events and others like them, this year Colgate is strengthening its guest policy and increasing security. New policies allow only one guest per student and guests must be at least 18 years of age. There is also a wristband required for all events, excluding daytime sporting events. These are both changes brought about by the increase in security. Events are also being confined to the period between Friday afternoon and Sunday morning and will be closed to members of the surrounding communities. A planning committee comprised of students, staff and faculty plans SPW programing. This year’s committee is made up of the co-presidents of the Colgate Activities Board, seniors Zoe Blicksilver and Sarah Gilkes, two student musical executives from the Colgate Activities Board (CAB) and the staff of the Center for Leadership and Student Involvement. The committee has been meeting monthly all year with representatives from different campus organizations, the police and the community hospital. It is hoped that these measures will help reduce the stress on the community that SPW has been known to cause. The process for choosing the headliner begins in the fall with an open forum. The committee uses names brought up at the forum and checks their availability and cost. Using this information, the committee generates a survey of 10 to 15 names, which is distributed to the student body. Unfortunately, this year the top artists from the survey were no longer available in our price range by the time the process was completed. As has happened in the past, there were timing issues because SPW often overlaps with one of the weekends of Coachella, a popular California music festival that draws many different artists. This year’s headliner will be Lupe Fiasco. This will be his second performance at Colgate, as he also headlined in 2009. The Planning Committee was a little apprehensive about a repeat artist, but decided upon Lupe Fiasco because of his popularity last time and the interest from the student body. He will be performing Saturday night in the Sanford Field house from 6 to 10 p.m. “A lot of time and effort went into planning this event and we want everyone to have a good time,” Gilkes said. SPW will kick off on Friday, April 25 at 5 p.m. with a BBQ on Whitnall field. There will be a variety of events over the course of the weekend including a performance by Giants of Science, a silent disco at 1934 House and a Newman BBQ. A full list of events can be found at The weekend promises to be a fun way for students to unwind and enjoy themselves before the stress of finals week ensues.

Will it list all precincts together with all republicans, then all precincts with democrats, etc. Or will it list the precinct 8 times in a row with some party designation next to it (which will probably cause alot of ballot selections being wrong). Short answer: I'm not sure yet. Initially it'll work however the old IMARK primary stuff worked (haven't tried it yet myself). We are switching gears in a week or so back to the AVTS to give one more run at the Win95/98 AVTS. I'll keep the 8 party issue in mind, and follow up with the details when its ready.

2006 British Formula Ford Champion, Nathan Freke, took to a different track last weekend at Elvington Airfield near York. Unable to secure a race seat due to budget problems so far this year Nathan took the opportunity to take part with his road car in one of the largest performance and tuning car days in the UK. The Redline Magazine ‘Ten of the Best’ competition is held annually and brings together the most powerful road legal cars in the country in 3 disciplines – ¼ mile drag strip, 1 mile top speed, and a handling course. Nathan competed with his road going MR2 as part of the UK MR2 team, which is prepared by Nathan himself including a recent engine rebuild. Nathan expected to do well in the handling course but only had 1 run at it and crossed the line going backwards after putting the power on too early. As rain was expected Nathan made his way to the drag strip and on run one clocked a respectable 11.5 ¼ mile. Change of fuel and tyres and run 2 turns into something special. Up against a Dodge Viper Nathan puts in the 4th fastest drag run by a street legal MR2 ever validated anywhere in the world of 10.41 seconds with a terminal speed of 133 mph – a mark not bettered by any other 2 wheel drive car over the day. Sadly the next run which was to include a top speed mile run caused the car to overheat and only 167.9 mph was recorded instead of the expected 185 plus. This meant the end of any further runs on the drag strip or handling course as Nathan sat out the day watching the other rear wheel drive cars try to better his mark – some of which had over 1000 bhp. At the end of the day Nathan topped the charts in the rear wheel drive drag times and 11th place overall only bettered by out and out drag saloons and 4 wheel drive cars. Desperate to take part in the end of day shoot out with a chance to go up against the top 4wd car Nathan topped the engine coolant up and tore down the strip in the semi final to beat his opponent comprehensively and take his place in the overall final –sadly a blown head gasket prevented his participation, against the Viper he beat in the RWD runs earlier in the day to win that class. Nathan once again proved his competitive credentials by lowering the British and European ¼ mile record for a road legal MR2 by over ½ a second to become the Ten of the Best RWD Drag Class Winner. ‘I really enjoyed today, it was great to be taking part in a competition driving and it was even better to win, particularly in a car where I built the engine. It would have been nice to take part in the overall final but a small water pump leak caused all of the trouble, but no serous damage. I am still trying to secure a drive for the remainder of the season as well as trying to secure funding for 2008 – I still believe I can race at the absolute top level – I just need the right break.’ commented Nathan afterwards.

Sanur has for a very long time had a very seedy reputation. In simple words it is a cesspool. At least Kuta has a spark, a certain wild and fun energy while Sanur for some time now has been very creepy and covert. Prostitution is all over this place but what is disturbing is the fact that it is not seen like in Kuta, it’s hidden, out of sight and that is more worrying. Who is for rent and how young, are they willing and consensual? All these questions have to be raised. The local authorities won’t investigate it, why? Because they are the biggest pimps and criminals on the island. The have total hegemonic control over illegal business and that’s why they sign up to wear the uniform. Saying all this if you still want a blow job with a happy ending massage do it in the privacy of your own villa or hotel room. Fortunately it has over a few years become a bit more fun, some good bars, restaurants and shops. It’s slowly capturing the family and retirement aged tourists. Sanur is far more peaceful and relaxing than the likes of Kuta. There is a club scene and plenty of girls for rental in these clubs who will jump on you should you happen to have a white sausage. Sanur is also the home of the British tourist or expat. Many of the westerners who permanently live in Sanur hail from the UK. Now we know this place is seedy, it is very easy to get and hand job or blow job complete with a happy ending massage but the question has to be asked. What else will you get, or specifically what else will you catch? Again HIV and STDs are a massive issue in this part of the world but don’t say that too loud, it’s bad for tourism. It is good to see a changing face of Sanur, there are some luxury hotels and villas in this area and I can see that Sanur is becoming a two sided coin. Once side is great for more senior tourists, people who have retired and want some peace along with tropical weather, families wanting a relaxing holiday without the stupidity of Kuta. The other side will always be there, why because dirty people make dirty money in this area and they often carry badges. So what is the alternatives to all of this seediness. Simple, contact us if you are in Sanur and are in need of a happy ending massage along with a hand and blow job.

Appropriate use of instructional technology can be an elusive quest for many faculty members. The iTouch is one of the latest technologies available to us, yet there is little literature on its use and effectiveness to support learners in their learning. Six new faculty members from various disciplines elected to integrate the device in their own classes, collect quantitative and qualitative data, and report their findings. The results show several innovative active learning strategies for incorporating the iTouch inside and outside of the classroom, along with perspectives on the strengths and weaknesses of these approaches, and recommendations for future use. The study serves as an exemplary model for other universities that wish to foster experiential learning among faculty.

You are unlikely to get what you want if you don’t know how to ask for it. Here we look at some of the most common areas of difficulty when it comes to being assertive in relationships. When you do your dating profile you are asked lots of questions to help you clarify what you want from a new relationship (many people find it easier to specify what they don’t want) At the profile stage it is hypothetical – you are talking about what you want from an ideal relationship. Once you are actually in a relationship it can be much more difficult to be so clear. Most relationships don’t fit the ideal right from the outset but can become ideal over time as you get to know each other and let the other person know what you want and need from them. Being assertive about what you want can feel really uncomfortable when it is face to face and you don’t want too seem too pushy or inflexible. To be successful, you need to understand the difference between asking and demanding. The difference between asking and demanding Often the problem that occurs is that people don’t really understand the difference between asking and demanding. What you are trying to do is establish better ways of communicating so that you and your partner both get what you want and need. Demanding is insisting that someone else gives you what you want, regardless of his or her feelings. You can tell the difference because when you are asking, you don’t mind if the answer is no; when you are demanding, you get upset if you’re request is denied. When you ask for what you want, you need to have a back-up plan in case the other person can’t give it to you. The importance of knowing what you want If you don’t know what you want, you’ll have trouble getting it and may experience a life long feeling of missing out which can lead to bitterness and resentment. If you cant express your needs and wants you may also have difficulty asking your partner what their wants and needs are. In your relationship, asking for what you want in a loving way helps both you and your partner to understand each other. If you don’t know what you want you won’t know if you are getting it? If you don’t know what your partner wants, you won’t know how to give them the best of your love and support. This can leave one or both of you feeling unsatisfied, resentful or frustrated. When couples are asked to state their wants they often discover to their amazement that what they want are quite similar things eg. to be appreciated, to be accepted, to be listened to etc. Suggestions for getting what you want: If you have difficulty in knowing what you want and communicating it, try these steps: 1. Get some clarity about what you actually want: You can’t tell somebody else what you want if yopu don’t really know yourself. Before you go to your partner what you want effectively if you’re not clear what it is, so before approaching your partner try to get one clear sentence which sums up what you are requesting. 2. Create a good atmosphere: If asking for what you want is difficult for you, don’t do it without preparation. Make sure you and the person you’re asking both have time, and invite the other person to sit down and talk with you. 3. Simply state what you want: Don’t dress it all up with a lot of disclaimers just ask, politely, for what you want. 4. Be prepared for them to say no. It’s important to remember that if you cannot accept a no you are demanding not asking. 5. Listen to the answer. Whether they say yes, no, or something in between, listen carefully to what they actually say rather than thinking you know what they are going to say before they even open their mouth! You need to be clear what the answer actually is rather than what you think it is. Learn how to say no It’s not just saying what you do want that is important but also what you don’t want. One of the most important aspects of a happy healthy relationship is emotional honesty. Many people go along with things they are not really comfortable with, especially at the beginning of a new relationship, because they want the relationship to work so badly they don’t feel able to assert themselves. The dating phase is a really good time to practice being emotionally honest. Say if you like or don’t like things. If asked for a preference on something don’t say ‘I don’t mind’, as that leaves the other person with the responsibility of deciding for you, be flexible but decisive.

« FBR (Friday Book Review): Ayn Rand, by Jeff Britting | Main | It sure is easy to say yes, isn't it? » "Think About What You Have To Do, and Do Something You're Thinking About" Etc. Hard Choices (Inspired by Bloomburg Businessweek Magazine...the very last page of each issue.) "Think About What You Have To Do, and Do Something You're Thinking About." Serving my local community as a high school teacher for 4 years, I learned a lot about customer service and the ability to take action. With classes as big as 34 students, it was absolutely necessary for us to work together to make things possible. That's when I realized the power of acknowledgement. Reading two books in the course of one month changed the way I did everything. It started when I asked a mentor of mine what I could do to maintain more control over the classroom and encourage my students to engage in the information. Luckily, my mentor was able to "talk me down." It wasn't about controlling the students, she taught me, it was about getting them to want to succeed. I realized I needed to think differently about my own philosophy of teaching and learning. One book I read, "Don't Shoot the Dog," by Karen Pryor, taught me about the power of reinforcement. Turned out I was reinforcing ANY behavior my students were exhibiting - be it positive (engaging, taking notes, doing well on their exams) or negative (showing up tardy, not doing homework, acting out in class). As I learned from behavioral psychology, when people are reinforced, they will be more likely to repeat the behavior. I continued learning from reading "The One Minute Manager" by Ken Blanchard. Here, I practiced setting goals, acknowledging people's progress and giving tough, course-corrective feedback. One of the mantras I took, after working with a group of scientists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory years ago is: Think about what you have to do, and do something you're thinking about.

will be presented at the first Workshop on CPS Education (CPS-Ed) at CPSWeek 2013 on April 8th, 2013 in Philadelphia. Abstract: Effective and creative CPS development requires expertise in disparate fields that have traditionally been taught in distinct disciplines. At the same time, students seeking a CPS education generally come from diverse educational backgrounds. In this paper we report on our recent experience developing and teaching a course on CPS. The course can be seen as a detailed proposal focused on three three key questions: What are the core elements of CPS? How can these core concepts be integrated in the CPS design process? What types of modeling tools can assist in the design of cyber-physical systems? Experience from the first two offerings of the course is promising, and we discuss the lessons learned. All materials including lecture notes and software used for the course are openly available online.

Bandai Namco’s free-to-play fighting game Soulcalibur: Lost Swords will shut down later this year, according to an announcement from the publisher. The PlayStation 3 game, despite having logged more than 2 million downloads, will end its service on Nov. 30. The publisher said in in a notice that it will stop selling certain in-game consumable items on Sept. 30 and end sales of all in-game items on Oct. 27. Service for Soulcalibur: Lost Swords will end at 3 a.m. ET on Nov. 30. Soulcalibur: Lost Swords was released for PS3 in 2014. The free-to-play fighting game is strictly single-player and pitted players against computer-controlled combatants. In a farewell video, the developer couches the bad news of Lost Swords’ closure with a tease that more Soulcalibur is coming. “Long live Soulcalibur,” the video says, adding, “The warriors may fade, but their souls will ignite again.” Earlier this year, Bandai Namco polled Soulcalibur fans on their favorite characters from the series. “Project Soul is probably preparing something huge,” the company wrote on the series’ Facebook page, hinting that the poll would determine the future of the Soulcalibur franchise. The newest entry in the main Soulcalibur series, Soulcalibur 5, was released in 2012 for PS3 and Xbox 360.

During the large rain events which hit the Gold Coast in 2021, the owners of this property discovered a few damaged roof tiles had let large amounts of water into the ceiling cavity. The ceiling had to be dropped as it was unable to be saved. Our team went through and removed all existing ceiling and cornice to the kitchen and dining area, hung the new ceiling and painted both walls and ceiling.

When the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020, digital news channels registered substantial increases in traffic and attention, with users flocking to news sites daily to monitor the pandemic’s progression and impact. An interesting development in print media also occurred. While the medium has seen a general decline since digital news has taken over, a few select titles have maintained a strong position in the media landscape. In fact, high-quality print press has, exceptionally, registered increases in circulation (both subscription and newsstand) during the pandemic. Here, readers have been prioritising trustworthy and respected titles for their accurate information, as well as their expert guidance, in navigating the impact of the pandemic, particularly in a professional capacity. Looking at the French market, Les Echos, France’s leading business and finance daily, is one of the only daily French press titles to have registered an increase in circulation with a total of 132,822 (ACPM Nov 2020). This represents a notable +2.08% increase from 2019 to 2020 and a huge increase of +11% over the last 10 years – confirming its prestigious position as a key reference source for French decision makers. Similarly, Le Point has affirmed its unique and respected position on the French market as the No.1 news magazine with a total paid circulation of 297,396 – a significant increase of +4.5% v 2019 (OJD DFP 2019/2020). Similar developments have also been registered in other markets, such as Germany, as recently shared by our German partners, iq media. Handelsblatt, the leading business and financial daily newspaper has seen subscriptions to the print edition increase by 2% to 86,878, whereas WirtschaftsWoche, the leading weekly business magazine, has registered a +7.5% increase in subscriptions and a +26.5% in newsstand sales. DIE ZEIT, Germany’s leading quality weekly newspaper, has even achieved its third record circulation in a row with 547,390 sold copies – and posted a monumental growth of 15.4% in subscriptions and newsstand sales.

Days, weeks and even years of considerations and consulting are needed for a couple to decide to have a kid and prepare themselves for a permanent responsibility for a child. After making this hard and important decision, there is a long way to welcome a healthy child to the family. Actually, having unprotected intercourse does not guarantee pregnancy all by itself. Even a year of trying to have kids could be ineffective, but if it takes more than a year, considering the couple’s age and the time they tried haven’t led to pregnancy yet, it’s needed that both of them go for medical examinations so they could know what is wrong. Today, Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) is so advanced that with different techniques, it can give the couples the chance of having children. The requirements and preferences you have for having a baby, are of great importance in choosing the type of treatment for conception. with highly-experienced physicians and a variety of medical facilities can help you first realize what’s blocking your way from having a healthy child, and then treat it and have the baby you have always wished. As you go, you may have the chance to determine the gender of the baby.

Brought to you by What More? Productions, Verity Lane's scintillating show is a multimedia reimagining of the 650-year-old Japanese Noh play, Sumidagawa, which inspired Benjamin Britten to compose his musical parable, Curlew River. This dance drama weaves together elements of video art, sound art and installation, as well as a live tapestry of percussive sounds, Noh movement and butoh dance. Feel the river as a ferryman takes a mother across its churning waters in search of her lost child – but finds only a ghost child. Poignancy and comedy collide in the Japanese and British Sign Languages of Deaf performers, who are played like musical instruments by a mysterious masked percussionist. Chisato Minamimura brings the role of the grieving mother to life and Brian Duffy's portrayal of the Ferryman offers a comedic edge, while Beibei Wang heightens the drama with music composed by Verity Lane. Dancer Stephanie Daw performs the ethereal ghost child. Booking information Book now to secure your place. Please enter via the Main entrance on Great Russell Street.

With nods to the former ballpark, captivating architectural elements, fan experiences around every corner, and a retractable roof that takes a mere 12 minutes to open, Globe Life Field is poised to be a renowned park not only for baseball fans but serving as an entertainment venue as well. Walter P Moore’s Jeff Jansing, Shruti Sharma, and Joe Dowd explain the structural engineering achievements that helped bring Globe Life Field to life. "Globe Life Field—the new $1.1 Billion home of Major League Baseball’s (MLB) Texas Rangers—caters to baseball fans of all ages. Loaded with stunning architecture designed by HKS, state-of-the-art technology and fresh new gameday experiences at every turn, the 1.7 million sq ft, 40,300-seat venue featuresan exceptionally intimate seating bowl, a multitude of premium amenities and a distinctive, ETFE-clad retractable roof to protect cheering fans from rain or the sweltering Texas sun. The 300,000 sq ft, single-panel roof takes a mere 12 minutes to travel over 400ft, creating an open-air ballpark experience when desired and exposing spectacular views. Additionally, the otherwise climatecontrolled venue maximises natural light entering the stadium when the roof is closed through the extensive use of ETFE and glass. The ballpark’s exterior design blends a historic, retro-style brick façade with structural steel accents and extensive glazing throughout. A sprawling glass wall on the stadium’s north side frames an inviting main entry from the adjacent Texas Live! Entertainment District, a complex of hotels, retail and restaurants anchored by the new ballpark. Globe Life Field replaces Globe Life Park, itself a retro-style park that opened in 1994. The interior arches along the left field and centerfield upper concourses of Globe Life Field are an ode to the original ballpark’s iconic exterior architecture. Incorporating the latest in LED technology, expansive video boards visible from any vantage point in the seating bowl ensure that spectators never miss out on the action."
