We are all well aware that Kia is committed to all-electric models in the future, with the reveal of the EV6 a couple of months ago being the latest step in that direction. This distinct looking model is gathering a ton of interest, thanks in large part to its cool features and outstanding performance. The interest in the carmaker’s brand-new all-electric crossover is high, which is perhaps not that surprising given what we know about it. The brand new Kia EV6 GT model comes as an AWD only and generates 576 HP and 538 lb.-ft. of torque, as well as the ability to go from 0-60 mph in a mere 3.5 seconds. While those numbers are all very exciting, it does make you wonder what they mean for other performance models, most notably the Stinger, in the Kia lineup. Will there still be a market for those models as the Kia EV lineup continues to grow in the near future? Kia EV6 GT is quicker than many sports cars Car Advice, an automotive magazine based in Australia, recently wrote about how well Stinger has performed for Kia. Damien Meredith, head of Kia Australia, stated that they were delighted with the performance edge that the Stinger added to the Kia brand, but he also admitted that the company is looking forward instead of in the rearview. He specifically spoke about the performance numbers delivered by the new Kia EV6 and how they might make the Stinger look a little less flashy in comparison. The Kia Stinger is immediately different from the Kia EV6 in that it sends power to the rear wheels, delivering 368 horsepower and 376 lb.-ft. of torque. By most standards, those numbers are impressive, but they are not nearly as good as the performance of the EV6. Will Kia Stinger be replaced by the EV6? With all of that in mind, you might well believe that the writing is on the wall for the Kia Stinger. It’s not quite time to completely write it off just yet, though, as there are several special editions of the 2022 Kia Stinger waiting in the wings for release. It would be sad to see the Stinger retired at some point, as it is certainly one of the cooler looking models in the Kia US lineup and a definite fan favorite. Perhaps Kia will offer up an all-electric version of the Stinger down the line. That said, the styling of the EV6 is set to influence upcoming models, which might prove to be problematic for the Stinger. It’s all conjecture at this point, but what we do know is that the 2022 Kia EV6 is going to up the ante in the all-electric market.

Also I just found out Mazda by 2025 will compete with the EV6 GT and Mustang Mach e as well. Unlike Hyundai though who made their EMP platform from scratch, Mazda’s lazy self will get its platform from Toyota which is partnered with Tesla. That’s easy to do. And unlike the Kia EV6 design, all Mazda is going to do is keep that CX-5 design and place that Toyota Platfrom under the hood. Jtz is back says: June 20, 2021 at 4:41 pm Rumour I hear Ford and Toyota bought some Tellurides and Sorentos to take back to their R&D to see how they work.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission yesterday arraigned a former Director of Bank PHB (now Keystone), Funmi Adenmosun, before the Federal High Court in Lagos for allegedly laundering the sum of N26.6 billion. The EFCC docked Adenmosun alongside his company, Home Trust Savings and Loan Limited and a private company, Rare Properties and Development Limited before Justice Daniel Osiagor on a 10-count charge of conspiracy and money laundering. The defendants were also accused by the anti-graft agency of fraudulently converting the proceeds of private placement raised from the public in the name of Investments & Allied Assurance Plc. Adenosine, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge. After his plea was taken, the EFCC counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo urged the court to fix a trial date and to remand the defendant in custody of the Nigerian Correctional Services (NCoS), till the conclusion of the trial. But the defence lawyer, Wale Adesokan (SAN) informed the court that a bail application dated January 13, 2022 had been filed and same had been served on the prosecution. Adesokan, therefore, prayed the court to hand over Adenmosun to him assuring the court that he would always attend to his case.

The judge directed that one of the sureties must be a Grade Level 15 level officer in either a federal or state ministry, while the other surety must be a blood relation of the defendant and a property owner within the jurisdiction. The court further directed that the defendant should be remanded in EFCC custody pending the perfection of his bail conditions. He then adjourned the case to February 24 for commencement of the trial.

The term “Lady Racer” is often overused is racing. Most “lady racers” simply want to be known as racers without another label. Of course once the helmet is on that becomes the case. It is hard not to proclaim credit to successful female drivers that are breaking through in an once male dominated sport. The spotlight is falling on the diverse winners in the Slingshot division in recent races. Kaitlyn Swist led much of the Junior Slingshot race on Wednesday night and snagged a podium finish while Lindsey Garl went to victory lane on Wednesday night at Shellhammer Dirt Track to put a cap on a week that saw four female drivers take checkered flags. Abbey Cauley was a winner at Tri-County Speedway in Alabama on Sunday while Kyndal Kimmons scored a Labor Day weekend win at Southern Raceway in Florida. Amanda Angstadt added to her win total at Bridgeport Speedway with a Saturday victory while, although not a win, former Junior Slingshot World Champion Shelby McLaughlin, gave eventual winner Dylan Hoch all he could handle at Hamlin on Saturday night in the Super National Event. Despite the perception of domination from men in racing, these hard working race car drivers are putting the attention on their skills of going fast and taking checkered flags before anything else.

My prior post regarding Best of Breed Controllers got more notice than I had anticipated, I definitely didn't expect the interesting discussion regarding object publishing history it spawned. But first, some corrections: Kevin Dangoor points out that CherryPy allows for computed URL traversal by having the parts of the URL passed into a default function with a function signature like def default(self, other, parts, of path):. On a side-note, I believe David Creemer is using this aspect in his use of Routes integration with CherryPy to some extent. Mike Watkins gives a great overview of Quixote on his blog. He also shows how it fits into the categories I mentioned above and points to a hello world web app that again looks similar to the other frameworks. Adiran Holovaty notes that Django controllers can be callable's too, and that my example is somewhat misleading regarding the amount of code required for a basic controller. This is because the example I took from the Django documents was from a fairly advanced controller that was doing a lot of work. Robert Brewer mentions that CherryPy controllers can be any callable that allows an “exposed” attribute to be set on it, though they tend to be class methods as its easier to hook them into the cherrypy.root handler tree. Also, CherryPy doesn't officially advocate any templating language. In a way, Phillip J Eby's correction regarding the history could be in the list above. However, it really wasn't my intention to get into a discussion regarding object publishing history. For anyone considering making YAPWF, I'd definitely advocate catching up on lessons learned in the past as it makes no sense to repeat their mistakes. I think in hindsight, a better heading for that section would've been Who didn't do it first as the real intention of the section was so that people wouldn't assume one of the frameworks I mentioned was the first to come up with it. For those interested in the history of Zope, its predecessor Principia and Bobo, I'd highly suggest reading the above link to Object Publishing along with Phillip Eby's comment and Paul Everitt's response. I've found it all rather fascinating as most of the frameworks I showed looked so similar to Bobo. So nice to know that an old Python ‘adage' I read (probably on some comparison of Python and Ruby) seemed to hold up here. If you give the same task to a dozen Python programmers, the solution is going to look quite similar.

Determining cost per lead for your business is vital to understanding how much money you need to spend in marketing. Additionally, knowing how much a lead costs will help you understand how much a conversion costs. These are two vital numbers to excelling in your paid ads strategy. Cost per lead can be determined in regards to either PPC (pay per click) or SEO (search engine optimization) efforts. We’ve talked about the difference and pros and cons between those two approaches previously. You can view that video here and read the blog here. Clarity on that will help you decide where to invest. Let’s talk about: How much you are paying for your leads How much you should be paying or your leads Industry benchmarks for car services, bus companies, limo companies and other transport businesses How Much Does SEO Cost Per Lead? Here is how I would analyze how much a lead costs for an SEO investment. Here’s a scenario: we’re a company in Dallas paying $2,000/month for SEO on our website. What else do you need to know? ONE: How Much Organic Traffic Do You Get? In order to get an actual number of cost per lead for SEO, you need to know how much organic traffic your website is getting per month. In our scenario, let’s imagine that they start with 100 unique visitors a month. Through SEO improvements, over a course of time, they get 600 unique visitors a month. Averaged out, the visitors you’ve paid to get may be about 250 unique visitors a month. This is 3,000 extra visitors over the course of a year. Remember, you don’t want to get this number from total traffic, because that will include a lot of referral sources (Yelp, Facebook, etc.). This number has to be established from organic traffic numbers. TWO: How Many Visitors Become Leads? After you’ve established how much traffic you get, you need to calculate how many of those visitors become leads. A lead is someone whose information you have. This is someone you can reach out to for marketing purposes. In the scenario, if they have 3,000 extra leads a year and a 25% conversion rate, they’ve paid for 750 brand-new leads. For the $2,000/month SEO spend that they’re spending (at $24,000/year), then they’re paying a little over $30/lead. THREE: Understanding SEO Timeline for New Leads That’s a lot per lead, but the comparison year over year will change. SEO is unique like that. As you invest in SEO on your website, your conversion numbers can change a lot because SEO improves with time. Say the traffic leads improve by a couple of thousand a year. Every time it improves, your cost per lead goes down. FOUR: Hire the Right SEO Firm The problem is that most businesses don’t do their due diligence in finding the right SEO company. Hiring an SEO company for your business can be a huge waste of time and money. If that agency doesn’t know what they’re doing, you won’t find out until you’ve spent a lot. Go here to learn about Limo Marketer’s SEO specialty work. How Much Does PPC Cost Per Lead? Next, let’s look at cost per lead for PPC, or paid ads. You’ll see this in your dashboard, but it’s important to understand where the numbers come from. In the Google Ads dashboard, you’ll see it this way: Your average CPC (cost per click) may be between $1-$4 (that’s the number for 95% of limo companies). Divide the CPC by your conversion rate. This is very easy to figure out. The equation may look like this: $2 CPC divided by a landing page conversion of 30%. 2/0.3 = 6.67 In this scenario, your cost per lead for PPC ads is $6.67. This is why conversion rate matters so much. If your conversion rate was only 10%, you’d be paying $20 per lead. The conversion rate is about how your website or landing page converts. You can view a video about conversion rates here if you want to learn more. Limo Company: Industry Standards for Cost Per Lead This number is calculated with a few different metrics. The number depends on your market size. It’s important to know that your ability to achieve these numbers hinges on whether you have a well-crafted Google Ads campaign. If you have a poor ad campaign, you won’t get anywhere near these numbers. Here are the trends on ad spend cost per lead for limo companies: You can quickly figure out what you’re paying per click if you know the conversion rate. If your cost per lead is $20 and you’re converting at 25%, that means you’re paying $5 a click. In this industry, you don’t want to be paying that much per click unless you’re doing large vehicles, like charter buses. If you’re doing a limo service or airport car service, your cost per click should be between $2-$3. Your ad strategies should be bidding to low positions and trying out methods that keep that cost down. Hire a Marketing Agency for Your Limo Company A last point: if you’re paying an agency, you have to factor that cost into your numbers as well. If an agency is getting you 100 leads/month and you’re paying them $600/month, then you’re paying an extra $6/lead. That changes all of your numbers. Your actual price per lead will change when you calculate in your agency fees. Keep in mind, even though it raises your cost, if you don’t have a good agency, you could be spending as much as 5x per lead. It’s very easy to try to DIY and end up with a low-conversion website, poorly crafted ad campaign and these can exponentially increase your spend. Here’s the tip: if you haven’t had your PPC agency in six months, have an agency audit your business. Limo Marketer can help with this. Way too many companies way more than they need to per lead and that can add up month over month. Anytime you can reduce your ad expenses, it immediately feeds back into your bottom line.

The Journal of the Franklin Institute was written by Thomas Edison and Charles T. Porter back in 1882. This journal highlighted various inventions from over the years like the Edison Steam Dynamo and Dynamometer to how to prevent fires in theaters and pollution of the Schuylkill River.

We’ve all heard about the long term effects like depression and anxiety that victims of bullies can suffer well into adulthood. But what we haven’t heard is what kind of effect bullying has on the bully. A new study that looks at the social outcomes of kids that were known for bullying their peers shows some interesting findings that may surprise you. National Geographic reports about the Duke University study that takes a look at what they call “pure bullies”. These are the kids who tend to bully others but are never the victim of bullying themselves. Researchers involved in the study followed the outcome of children from age 9 to 21. By studying the participant’s CRP levels (a biomarker of chronic inflammation that's been linked to cardiovascular risk and a sign of stress in the body) researchers found those who had been bullied had the highest levels as they got older. But bullies seemed to somehow benefit from their social status by reducing their CRP levels. Lead author William Copeland explains, “There seems to be a protective effect for the bullies because of this enhanced social status, or their success that comes along with being a good bully.” Lower stress levels may be a long term benefit for bullies, but researchers warn that other risk factors like a greater likelihood of joining a gang or carrying a weapon also come with the bullying lifestyle. There may be other healthier ways for teens to enjoy the same type of social status and gain confidence like joining a competitive sports team. What do you think of the new study that finds bullies may benefit from lower stress levels as adults? Do you think kids who take part in competitive sports and games can benefit the same way bullies are from lower stress levels as adults? Make a Comment To comment, please click here to login SHARE Comments by valerie520 | San Antonio, TX Jun 18, 2014 Lowering the stress level of a bully is the last thing on my to-do list! I don't care what these findings indicate, there is never a good reason for bullying to be condoned. If anyone's stress levels should be considered, it should be that of the victims and their families; we can't always choose who we work, go to school with or is around us, however, I will always make it my priority to not be mistreated or let anyone around me suffer because of someone else's ignorance or lack of manners and civility. by kohlenblakesmom | INVERNESS, MS Jun 04, 2014 BENEFITS?? NOT. I was bullied. It hurts & makes you feel horrible inside and out. You feel like you are worthless. I have been tripped when I walked by, had books thrown at the back of my head, been shot with rubber bands, etc. There is nothing at all beneficial about being treated like you are nothing. Being a bully to someone is WRONG no matter how you look at it. I will teach my children to be a friend, and to stand up for someone who is being bullied. I am not asking them to step into confrontation, but to at least get adult help when they see a situation of such arise. NO person, young or old deserves to be mistreated.

I know Adam Levine sang that Summer's gonna hurt like a motherfucker, but man, did he not take into account the Winter that will suck balls? Let me explain. It's gone on for so long that I've had a break-up, a rebound, a whole misunderstanding when I realized the rebound was not required and the break-up wasn't a break-up cause were we even official? It's gone on long enough for me to adjust working on a smaller screen and hammer out 8 different pitches in a day. It's for another time that 7 of those got rejected and I am currently dragging the only accepted pitch to as a sliver of Sun in these gloomy days. I'm putting in more work than I need to and hurting my sentiments when my brain has to process the beautiful relationship stories I'm offered. "Did you guys have arguments at that stage when you weren't official?" "no, we never had arguments." Shit, fuck. That's probably why we're not working. We're fighting and pulling our armours out when this should be the best time. V tells me we need to meet and pounce on each other so we know it's just frustration. We should plan a vacation. Does he even want to meet? Am I wasting my time with someone who cares too little but claims he cares too much? I won't know until we see each other and feel the blood rush to different parts and dull our brain. I think we should pull the band-aid and get it out. It's hard and it's gonna hurt but we are hurting even now and who's to say we won't get better. The bleeding stops, eventually and the blood clots for us to reflect on the wounds. The Winter's gone on for too long. I can't remember the last time I was happy with him. I only remember the bits of intimacy. "I'll be busy through November with work and then there's the death anniversary. I'll need space. Will you be okay with that?" was once a deal-breaker for me in my head when I assumed he would flip if I disappear without any intimation. He said he'd be there throughout and the response freaked me out. I had hoped for a violent reaction to my sentiments of needing space but he stood strong through it. A week later, I went as far as saying I'm out of love and I feel nothing just so he'd understand it's not him and give me the space and the hate for us to get out of it. I can't believe that was something I did. Reflecting back, I wish I'd stuck my ground over those months when I knew this would end badly. Of course, we got back and we got back stronger than ever. Now, it is ending badly cause we could hold our stance. But not the Winter. This Winter isn't ending. For a season with shorter days, the whole fucking lifeform is moving so damn slowly, that it feels like I've lived a lifetime in the last two weeks. It really does. Is this how it feels like when you are forced out of your comfort zone? I've lived without it for so long that this brief support felt like a lifetime of love and I can't seem to wrap my head around the trick that oxytocin's pulling on me. I stare at the bed blankly, nearly three times a day, and wonder each time if I felt the same in the Winter of 2019 when I'd returned after losing my savings or in Winter 2020, after a freak medical episode followed by a family wedding followed by a grand disaster in a different city followed by getting out of full-time employment. It's that same sight, the same angle of the bed and the same question. How was Winter of 2021? I don't remember much. There were restless periods of grief and lots of silence. We didn't talk and whatever social interactions we were forced to carry out were all as a family, another reality I had to cope up with. What was a family going to be in the light of death? None of us knew. There was uncertainty and silence. It feels unbelievably similar this time around, except it's my personal weight. This is why I hate the winter. It brings out everything from backburner— emotions, grief, neediness and stench of moth balls in our clothes. Honestly, this should be no big deal. I've hammered my emotions out. Tried to make sense of my grief and what he brought and what he's taking away and all that. It's as good as over barring the intermittent contacts we've made with each other in our moments of weakness. I should be done with this. Winter's what, another month? My grief should outlast the Winter but in the current situation, neither is working. One of them needs to halt and reflect on the damage they're causing. We've been talking again. Nothing serious most of the times, but enough to leave me miserable for the remainder of time. Almost, every weekend or every 3rd day after the weekend when one of us feels like our head will explode if we don't reach out, we share a meme that the other will "like". That heart react on a meme, that double click of validation and hoping they smiled looking at it, that is such an upper, man. It's mad. I've devised a way out of it, where I send everything to V and tell him it's not for him since he knows exactly who it's for. Except, my brilliant idea forgot that V and I have a certain equation, the one that doesn't involve kink sharing and opening up our lives like partners or anything. I succumbed horribly and ended up sending some in an exchange over the last two days. "Have you made a decision or is this a moment of weakness?" I asked and it was, indeed, a moment of weakness. Moments of weakness add to hourly mental damage. Whatever progress I'd have made over 7 days, goes in the trash the minute my phone shows a notification. Yeah, yeah, I know I can mute/unfollow/block, and believe me, I've done each of those, across all platforms and done things I'm not proud of, only for us to go back to it and get hurt all over again. Maybe I'm addicted to my own toxic behaviour. We did ask each other if we're toxic. That was exactly the first conversation in probably weeks of being cut-off and I knew at that moment, the ice had thawed. We were willing to look at each other as concerned adults about our own behaviour towards each other and ourselves. Usually, the telltale sign of normalcy is when I'm told it's us against the world. There was none of that this time. It was all different. We take two dialogues seriously, and none of those were uttered this time. That did break my heart a little but mostly it felt like we had it coming. Again, it was unexpected but I guess life happens when we are least expecting it. He says it often, "when we are good, we are very good." It's true. The oxytocin that flows in my body knows it's like I'm floating on a cloud and anything is possible. In the last few weeks, I've not been able to do anything. I don't feel like eating and that's the biggest sign of things not working. My system is broken. Winter needs to end. He needs to leave so I can move on with my life and he can focus on his life that he intends on making big. We have no room for each other and dragging each other along like Winter is dragging my bones is truly the worst thing you can do to someone. That's not it. I need to stop clinging on when we've made a decision. I can't go back and have a cry and restart this again. It's more on me than on him. But some problems are out of my control. Like, the Winter. I can't control it. It needs to stop clinging on to me like I cling to him.

January is Self-Love Month! The number one New Year Resolution is almost always to lose weight or change something about oneself. While self-improvement and health are important, it is equally important to love yourself at this moment! Scales cannot tell you how kind or compassionate or creative you are. They cannot measure friendships or academic success. Be kind to your body and show yourself some love this month and every month.

Perhaps a definition might help all of us as we seek to break the bonds of the boxes that bind us in bondage. Darkness is the absence of light and light is the absence of darkness. If darkness reigns in any area of our life—in some deep corner of that box—light has not yet penetrated it. And if light is shining into a box the darkness cannot overcome that light and must flee. This is simple truth—the kind of truth that liberates the prisoner from the cell. Liberation begins with a settled understanding that what has transpired in our life—our failures, our wounds, the transgressions of others, abuse, or misuse—are things that have happened to us or were perpetrated on us, not who we are. They are not our identity. As such, they cannot determine what we become because they are not a part of the eternal inheritance God has given us through his grace…unless we refuse to give them to God. That’s where the light and darkness issue arises. All of us are dragging baggage around. God has a deep, loving desire to take the baggage off our back and heal all of it, but he will not wrestle us for it. He will not force you to open your suitcase up or jump on your back, ride you to the ground, and rip that bulging knapsack off your shoulders. But, if you will stop running from the past and crack open the latches, God will shine his light into those dark places. That light will point to those things you must release and give to him. Rest assured, he will never force his hand into that place and take something you are unwilling to release. He may point to that box of abuse, or negative words, or loss, or failure, or sin, or abuse and say, “Give me that box—yes that one—and I will take it and heal the wound it has inflicted. I will give you liberty and release from it.” But you must put your hand inside your own soul and take hold of it. You must offer it up to God. We are so afraid God will dump our bags out and hold up our most embarrassing memories or wounds and embarrass us before all creation. He won’t! Grace-filled restoration and healing guided by a loving heart is his motive. The fear you feel right now did not come from him. Even as you read this, God is working. He is shining the brilliant light of his endless love onto your baggage. He is gently asking you to give him whatever has hurt, or wounded, or limited, or contained, or destroyed, or confined you. He wants you to give him all that has kept you from enjoying the endless delights of a shame-free, guilt-free, and condemnation free relationship with him. Why? Because he loves you! Perhaps God has stopped you dead in your fleeing tracks at this very moment. You have a choice to make. Life is a journey and the journey is tough enough without dragging tons of unnecessary baggage around with you everywhere you go. Will you give up those boxes and receive the healing God so desperately wants you to walk it? Or will you run some more hoping somehow, someway you can eventually outrun the pain, the sorrow, and the loneliness?

My photography services are always personalized to your needs. That said - please be warned: you are not only bringing in a photographer, but also an experienced marketer and project/event coordinator. ​ Added surprise value Due to my marketing communication experience, I feel at home in the world of branding, creative briefings and strict deadlines. I'll have a strong sense of the images you'' need, though teaming up with in-house marketing or PR departments or editors makes for a good recipe to create images with strong marketing impact. ​ My personal take on photography .. In the end - all business is personal. As stated in the Ritz-Carlton Golden Standard book. Curious to know about my personal take on photography? ​ ... found out at 'About Freestyling' ... more services # YOUR BUSINESS commercial photography It's all about teaming up your strategic vision your unique business features dedicated teammates + Amara's focused, creative perspective photography skills and all around Marketing Communication background = synergy in passion! = signature brand-enhancing visual stories! ​ Sometimes you indulge in fast food at McDonald's. Other nights call for a Fine Wine & Dine experience. That's the same in photography. There are times you need images to go beyond your own good snap shots. So you, as a chef for example, can fully focus on preparing the food perfectly. Or that you, as the PR manager, have your hands free to give full attention to your VIP guests. During those busy moments, I will ensure you get your images, crystal sharp and eye-catching. On the job hands on photography! ​ ​ Pragmatic and diplomatic On the job I work very hands-on. Advantage of an external photographer with diplomatic skills: I can ‘boss’ people around in a charming way. Like, getting a line-up of Arabic Energy Ministers to move three meters to the right (so I could sneak the organization's logo in the shot), and using that hustle to get them to smile at the camera. ​ Gordon Ramsay did not explode on a meet-and-greet when some extra seconds were needed so that I could guide the fan to take on a more flattering pose. ​ Gordon actually told her: 'Better do as she says. That photographer is even bossier than me...' ​ ​ Food Photography Culinary Delights ​ It's simple. I admire chefs who can not only create delicious food, but do so under severe time pressure and high demands. ​ I will never get tired of zooming in on culinary delights! Some of my highlights so far: Among others, I photographed the recipe book for the Ritz-Carlton Doha, as well as the presentation of Qatari food on a prestigious trade delegation of Qatar to Japan. Just two days before moving to Peru – shooting the advertisement for the new menu at Opal, by Gordon Ramsay. ​ Lima is the culinary capital of Latin America, and I dove into that scene by photographing for the food reviews of national English-language site, Living in Peru. Up in the Stars Photographing for luxurious resorts & 5 star hotels ​ In Qatar I photographed extensively for the St. Regis Doha and Ritz Carlton Doha. As well as occasionally for Sheraton Doha, Kempinsky Doha and the Four Seasons. It was a pleasant mix of food, events, chefs, staff, venues, special celebrations like Ramadan, Eid al Fitr as well as Xmas tree lighting. ​ Ranging from the capturing '1001 night fairy-tale looks of the Ramadan tents' to close ups of Art Pieces. Teaming up as 'external-in-house' MC photographer - it resulted in generated free publicity it into ‘Qatar Happening’ and ‘Doha Time Out’ with solid frequency. Press releases delivered with powerful photos to the media– it works! Lebanese singer & actor Mike Massy even landed a cover because of this approach. Jazz it up Assigned photographer at Jazz at Lincoln Center Doha ​ Unique value- the first Jazz At Lincoln Center outside New York was opening up at my home town Doha. Gotta be part of that - So I pitched a full photographic concept to document the vibes of this unique venue. From Grand Opening untill the impressive last performance of the third season- captured it all. Amara created signature visual style for the images of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Doha in print, social media and within the club's interior. Besides that, Amara provided the key visuals for two CD covers of grammy nominated artist Omar Sosa and many other musicians still use their images as profile photos on their social media.

Several types of coatings can be added/layered to/on the lens to provide you with better comfort: no-glare, scratch resistance, antistatic, anti-smudge: No-Glare No-glare or anti-reflective coatings are layers of metal oxides applied to the lens to reduce undesired reflections, enhance appearance and increase transparency for better clarity of vision. ​ Smudge Resistance Smudges stay on ordinary lenses, but not on lenses with a no-glare treatment. Smudge resistant attributes help your lenses stay cleaner longer. The lenses wipe away fingerprints, dirt and oil while improving your visual acuity, the ability to see objects clearly. ​ Antistatic Lenses that repel dust and dirt help you see clearly throughout the day. These low maintenance lenses reduce blurry, hazy vision. ​ Scratch Resistant All materials currently used in the making of optical lenses are subject to scratching. However, clear coatings are used to help lenses be more resistant. The plastic materials that are widely used today usually come with a built-in scratch-resistant coating. Scratch resistant coating increase the durability of your lenses. ​ UV-Protection Ultraviolet protection coating on optical lenses keep the sun's harmful UVs out, and diminish the risks of developing retinal damage and other serious eye conditions such as cataracts. SPECTICAL LENS DESIGNS Single Vision ​ Single vision lenses have the same optical focal point or correction over the entire area of the lens. Most non-presbyopic wearers will need single vision lenses to answer their visual needs. As a solution for presbyopia, single vision lenses only correct near vision. To see things far away, you need to remove your glasses or look over them. Progressive Lenses ​ Progressive lenses provide a smooth transition from distance to near vision, allowing the viewing of all intermediate distances. Progressive lenses are the optimum solution for presbyopia. These are designed to restore clear and accurate vision at all distances, without needing to constantly change glasses. The upper part of the lens makes it possible to see things far away, the central part to see the middle distance and the lower part to see close up. Bifocal Lenses ​ Bifocal lenses usually have a straight or visible line that defines separation of the top area which is for distance vision and the bottom area reserved for reading. There are some round designs available however the straight top bifocal lens is most popular. The trifocal lens has three focal distances. The third focal distance, placed in the middle of the lens, is utilized for viewing intermediate distances that are not covered by the top or bottom sections.

It’s been a century since the golden days of polar exploration, where legendary expedition photographers like Frank Hurley and Herbert Ponting famously documented the early Antarctic voyages of Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Henry Shackelton. Yet, the collective idea of the ‘White Continent’ remains mostly unchanged – that of an isolated environment of icebergs, penguins, and jagged mountains, mostly devoid of humans. In this exhibition, Vancouver photographer Jeff Topham exposes a fresh angle on Antarctica. These images from voyages south as Photographer-in-Residence for a Canadian expedition travel company show that, these days, there is more than just ice and snow. Reaching the seventh continent is now significantly easier than in Shackelton’s day – 75,000 people visited Antarctica in 2019. For those who do undertake the journey, photography still carries much of the same importance and purpose as it always has: to share images of a place few have seen and for scientific and educational purposes. Above all photography feeds the human need to prove ‘I was there.’ The increased human presence, combined with the ever-increasing effects of climate change, is placing the continent’s once pristine ecosystem under significant new pressure. This exhibition pays homage to the early days of polar exploration while updating it for the current age. Topham challenges the Antarctic myth, asking us to question our responsibility as tourists in one of the planet’s last relatively untouched places, while also reminding us of our deep connection to the natural world – and ultimately, inspiring the will to protect it.

Over the last twelve months there have been several changes with regards to the ScoutsWales Council structure, but there are still two arms; the volunteer support structure and the paid staff structure. Volunteer Support Structure Central to the operation of ScoutWales is the Board of Trustees. The Board is made up volunteers from across Wales and are ultimately responsible for everything that goes with governance; finance and resources, the Scouts Wales Advisory Appointments Committee, management the Cornel and Hafod activity centres, and other projects including ‘All Wales’ activities. The senior management team (Chief Commissioners and Assistant Chief Commissioners) and the Area Commissioners provide input into the Board. Staff Structure Governance of the paid members of staff is undertaken by the Board of Trustees. Simon Brownsill is the senior member of paid staff and he has a very diverse role: to ensure paid members of staff are managed correctly and in accordance with employment law, to ensure that governance and financial control is in place, to represent and promote ScoutsWales at a national level (internal and external to Scouting), to provide strategy and direction in conjunction with the Chief Commissioners, and to support the senior volunteers (Chief Commissioners, Area Commissioners and District Commissioners). The ScoutsWales office is managed by Tracy Lowe (who is also the Executive Secretary). Tracy is supported by Alison Harding who administrates programme and development, and Jane Churchill who looks after finance. Debbie Tanner is the Senior Development Officer and is responsible for managing the four local Development and Planning Officers (Mark Winson for Clwyd) and to work towards strengthening existing provision and open new Scout Groups and Sections across Wales.

Like last summer, I oversaw a three week programming practical at the University of Osnabrück, Germany – this time focussed on computer graphics. My group created an open-world exploration game called “Plantex”, in which all content is procedurally generated. This means, our game doesn’t need any static assets: the terrain, textures, plants and other objects are generated from a single integer seed. Only one of the 23 students knew Rust before, everyone else learned it during the first few days. In this post, I will share experiences and thoughts from the practical. Note: you can find the game on GitHub. Please keep in mind that most code was written by Rust beginners, so it's probably far from optimal. Ferris overseeing the practical :) Unlike in my post about the last practical, I won’t really describe the practical itself here. I will rather quickly describe our experience with the tool rustfmt and the library glium as well as mention some thoughts on the language Rust itself. These three topics are not linked to one another in any way and don’t really have anything to do with the game that was developed. If you just want to check out the project, you should click here. Glium Our game uses OpenGL through glium. In my opinion, glium’s philosophy of being safe and reasonably fast is great. However, during the practical we had mixed emotions about it: I regularly heard complaints about its documentation: sometimes it’s really great and describes certain features in great detail, but at other times it’s too short, non-existent or deprecated. Sometimes, glium is pretty slow, too. For example, it uses many HashMaps with the default hasher internally. This is really surprising, given that glium uses overly complicated designs to improve performance at other places. Take this type level list to store uniform values, for example. Later, those uniforms are put into a HashMap anyway. At one point we were able to improve our performance by ≈30% by simply using a glium fork that uses an FNV hasher instead of Rust’s default SIP hash. Additionally, glium has not implemented all OpenGL features yet. This is really annoying sometimes, as you can imagine. To me, glium feels like it’s still in the middle of development. Sure, it’s not 1.0 yet, but it’s the OpenGL wrapper in the Rust world. The idea is great, but I believe, it still needs a lot of work. Don’t get me wrong, I really admire tomaka for his work on so many interesting and great Rust libraries. But I think, game development is be pretty important for Rust, and that one programmer is simply not enough to maintain and work on an OpenGL wrapper, a Vulkan wrapper, a cross-platform window library, … Continuous integration and rustfmt Like many Rust projects, we used the CI service “Travis-CI” to protect our code base. Unfortunately, it’s rather difficult to properly test a game in CI; we didn’t even find an easy way to validate our GLSL shaders on Travis-CI. But at least we checked the code style with rustfmt. I wrote in much greater detail about our experience with rustfmt (and CI) in my previous post. This Ferris plushie was sewed by a friend of mine with this tutorial Conversions between primitive types in Rust For a long time, but especially during the practical, I have been learning to hate as casts. They tell you so little about what the programmer intended. I was happy to see many Into/From impls for safe number conversions. However, I haven’t really been able to use them often, because more often than not conversions I wanted to perform weren’t safe. When reviewing an as cast, I can’t know if the programmer knew about all side effects. Could this overflow or is it always safe? Is an overflow intended? Do we lose precision? In one PR I saw this: let seed0 = (rng_seed >> 32) as u32; let seed1 = rng_seed as u32; Judging from the code, rng_seed can be bigger than u32::max_value(). But is the code’s author aware of the fact the second line discards information? You could make it explicit by writing (rng_seed & 0xFFFFFFFF) as u32, but I think there could be better ways. For example: let seed1: u32 = rng_seed.truncate(); In the code I’m talking about, the type annotation is not even necessary. I really hope to get some conversion methods for primitive types that clearly state what they are doing (e.g. widen(), too). First, we wanted to write an RFC during the practical, but discarded the idea due to time limitations. Hopefully a few thoughts mentioned here will be interesting for the Rust community. You can discuss this post on reddit, if you want. Personally, I am pretty satisfied with the result of this practical; you should certainly check out the game! This was probably the last programming practical I will oversee at this university, but I will give a Rust course in the semester starting in two months. I’m planning to report about that in the future!

My loyalty to Callio Fragrance is unwavering. I still dabble here and there, collecting fragrances for my growing personal perfume vault, but I always come back to my tried and true scents. Of course you guys know how much I die for Adele. I've waxed poetic about the luxurious aroma of blackberry and rose in Adele here and here and I guarantee I'm going to do it again this winter, but today I'm going to fawn over Summer. I can't quite put my finger on why I love it, but it reminds me of something from my childhood. A generic concept or recurring experience of some sort; not quite a specific memory or event. Maybe the summer camp I attended smelled like the exact combination of peaches and freesia found in Summer. Or possibly the back room of my dad's office, where I would hangout after school throughout elementary school, felt identical to the way Summer smells. I don't know what it is, but every time I spritz myself it just feels so familiar. It could even be that Summer in and of itself is the scent of old memories. I bet anyone could smell it and feel like they're reliving some kind of childhood bliss. Or maybe it's just all in my head. But do I really need an explicit reason to love a perfume? At the end of the day it's all about how great I'm going to smell tomorrow when I'm getting coffee with my friend leaving a faint trail of Summer behind me.

When my second child was born, before us again there is a problem washing diapers, raspashonok and sliders. To wash hands? Long and tedious. Wash in a big washing machine? It is not profitable — either on the consumption of washing powder, nor the consumption of water and electricity… and the time on the big machine that have to spend quite a lot. Of course, you can buy a small, such as “baby” or “Fairy”, but now that the machine, the bucket is difficult to buy. Speaking of the bucket. Why not make a miniature washing machine yourself, using the ordinary plastic bucket? As it turned out, to make a “odnovremenno” micromachines is not so difficult — I was able to assemble it in just a couple of evenings. Started with cleaning out my old tape recorder “Yauza” — its tape drive mechanism was a good fit as a power unit for my mini machine. On the chassis of the tape drive I left only the electric motor, the drive from the engine to the flywheel and knob turn on the playback. Wirewound resistor I moved closer to the engine, and the tappet switching speeds are somewhat shortened. As a tank mini-car I used a regular plastic bucket with a capacity of 9 liters To the chassis of the tape drive this bucket is attached to standard (existing chassis) screws using rubber gaskets. The hole for the shaft of the flywheel is cut on-site to ensure that the clearance between the shaft and the housing bucket is minimized. Opportunities to make a tight sleeve I had, so I had rubber, and around the flywheel screen made of aluminum. In fact, the flywheel drilled six holes, so that the water that leaks from the bucket and hits the flywheel, eventually flows into the tub on which it is installed my machine and not into the motor. The activator washing machine is made of children’s toys — sieves. On its lateral surface, I made slits and bent them inwards in the form of a sort of blades. During the rotation of this part of the bent ends of the grab water and throw it up. The sieve-the activator is mounted by a pair of screws on the duralumin disk (I used a Vernier drive the device from an old radio), and the one fixed on the flywheel shaft. The power transformer of the electric motor is installed separately from the washing machine and connected to the motor long cord reliable insulation. At the top of the bucket is fixed a pipe with a tie on his hose, which is displayed outside the car. It is used in the rinsing of Laundry: the machine is installed on two boards over a bath, a pure water is supplied thereto from the tap and dirty is discharged through the fitting and hose. It is only necessary to adjust the water flow. Miniature washing machine design V.

Many people ask if chiropractic treatment for back pain is effective, but there are many reasons. Some people don’t feel any pain after receiving chiropractic treatment. Some individuals may have a higher pain threshold than others. However you should still be able to be able to enjoy a positive experience. This article will examine the advantages and drawbacks of chiropractic treatments for back pain. It will also discuss the limitations of clinical studies. Here are the major reasons for chiropractic care for back pain. Limitations of a clinical trial Although the strengths and weaknesses of the present study are undisputed the study’s methodology is still relevant. The deblinding technique used in the study didn’t reveal any distinctions between the two groups (80 percent of patients who were treated believed they had received active treatment compared with 67 percent of patients not treated). However, the nature of the interventions (no manual manipulation, spinal manipulation or spinal manipulative therapy) could cause distortions in the estimates of treatment effects. The outcome measurements and participants’ behavior may have influenced the outcomes. The present study was not able to provide sufficient data to support any conclusion regarding the efficacy of chiropractic treatment for back pain. Chiropractic care proved effective in treating headaches and neck pain, but it did not prove to be effective for osteoarthritis or fibromyalgia. The study did not examine the effectiveness of spinal manipulation or the injection of anesthetic or sugar water to strengthen ligaments. The present study also has limitations. In addition to the lack of randomization, the study also did not control for other variables. For example, chiropractic subjects are less likely than medical patients to have sought other forms of treatment. Chiropractic practitioners are more likely to employ multimodal, hands-on interventions that are difficult to analyze and conceal. This is why the results of the trial are not reliable. The current study looked at the effects of manipulation and manual therapy on neck pain. Despite the fact that cervical spine manipulation is the most widely used method of physical therapy no studies have been published that have compared the two methods over long-term effectiveness. Chiropractors also employ electric muscle stimulation and heating as two of the most common physical therapy modalities. The present study evaluated the effectiveness of the neck-pain treatments commonly utilized by chiropractors. Chiropractic treatment for back pain provides many advantages There are many benefits to chiropractic treatment for back pain. Chiropractic adjustments can help restore balance to muscles as well as normal joint function and reduce stress and improve circulation. The benefits of chiropractic treatments aren’t limited to back pain and can improve your posture. Chiropractic care is typically recommended for athletes as it can reduce the strain on the muscles, ligaments and nerves, and also improve the overall athletic performance. It is a safe and efficient alternative to surgery and steroid injections. Millions of people have benefited from chiropractic care. A lot of chiropractors schedule regular appointments, lasting anywhere from one or two weeks to several months. A visit may consist of between ten and twenty minutes per session, and two or three sessions each week. If the treatments work, they may reduce frequency to once per week. Your chiropractor may suggest spinal manipulations to alleviate back pain following the first few sessions. You can decrease the number of sessions if your back pain gets better. Many chiropractors are adept at adjusting the spine and joints to restore alignment. The misalignment can cause joint pain and stiffness, and also stiffness of muscles and weight problems later. Chiropractic treatments also provide relief from joint pain and improve range of motion. Many doctors recommend this treatment when conventional treatments don’t work. To ensure you’re receiving the correct treatment the chiropractor will conduct an extensive physical examination and medical history. Diagnostic imaging and lab tests may be performed as well. After they’ve made the right diagnosis your chiropractor will formulate an treatment plan and adjust your spine and joints. Another benefit of chiropractic care for back pain is that it may improve the Cobb angle in people with scoliosis. Poor posture can be addressed by chiropractic care and can be a result of the effects of standing, sitting and walking. In a recent research study, a woman aged 27 received 30 chiropractic treatments over a period of six months. After the treatments were completed, she noticed improvements in her posture and neck pain. Although chiropractic treatment isn’t a permanent fix most patients experience immediate relief from their back pain. Mechanisms of action Although the mechanism of chiropractic treatment for back pain is still not completely understood, it is known that adjustments to the spine can have an impact on the central nervous system. They influence paraspinal nerve signals. Chiropractic adjustments cause mechanoreceptive stimulation in the cerebellum and cortex. This affects the behavior and activity of serotonergic neurons within the raphe magnus. This has been related to lower back pain. Joint cavitation is another important aspect of chiropractic care. This technique causes rapid stretching of joints, which in turn reduces neck, back and headache pain. This type of treatment can also help reduce the effects of neurological issues. Chiropractors do not make a crackling sound when manipulating a joint. Instead, a sudden, gliding motion of the joint is a stretch to the surrounding tissues. Chiropractic can ease lower back pain due to degenerated, bulging, or slipped discs with a technique known as spinal decompression. They can also realign the spine bones to ease the pain and restore balance. This treatment can also ease migraines. It can improve motor organization and afferent firing patterns within the brain. Aside from spinal adjustments, research suggests that chiropractic treatment can alter central processing of pain and discomfort. This effect has been demonstrated in animals, and may provide therapeutic benefits for those suffering from chronic musculoskeletal pain. Chiropractic care can also alter the spinal cord segmental inhibition and pain perception by altering the neuroplasticity. Further studies are required to determine whether chiropractic treatment can have a positive impact on the central nervous system. Military clinical trials A new study is examining the effectiveness of chiropractic care for back pain in service members with brain injuries that are traumatic. More than 100 active duty personnel with injuries to their musculoskeletal system are part of the study. Active duty personnel are assigned to a 3 week course of SRC and CIH therapies. The pain intensity of every patient is evaluated by using a numeracy scale of 11 points. The protocol for the study recommends a clinically significant difference of two points. The study site will be monitored by medical monitors who review any adverse events and other incidents, including serious adverse events as well as participant deaths. The PCCR Project Manager (PMP), who oversees the three trial sites, ensures that the protocols are followed across the sites. A central research clinician will review the trial and then review the trial. The trial is ongoing. In the course of the study, participants will be required to fill out questionnaires as well as take tests. The study will involve more than 750 active duty military personnel suffering from low back pain. The participants will be split into two groups one from each location and the other from random samples. The main outcomes will be an assessment scale of numerical value for pain intensity, and the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire at week 6. The study is expected yield results that will assist those in the military to reduce their disability and pain. These trials could be a source of information for future research in manual and chiropractic treatments. The study was conducted from February 15th between February 14 and February 15 2017. ACT 1 was a randomized controlled trial that tested chiropractic for lower back pain. It also included an nested smoking cessation element. The study has concluded at all study sites. ACT 2 is a second study on response time among Special Operations Forces at Fort Campbell, KY. This study comprised 100 participants who were recruited in 2016. The study was closed study sites on February 14 2017. Cost of chiropractic treatment While the cost of chiropractic care for back pain varies by clinic and condition, some services are usually covered by health insurance plans. While Medicare and Medicaid cover chiropractic care but not all states offer this benefit. The treatment must be deemed medically essential by the patient and recommended by a primary care physician. Ozone therapy isn’t covered by some health insurance plans. It is used to lessen inflammation, improve circulation, and increase blood flow. However, these treatments can be extremely beneficial in alleviating back pain. Researchers compared the cost of chiropractic care for adults suffering from lower back pain in a study that was conducted recently. The researchers looked at the costs of patients treated by two different types of chiropractors. They found that Cohort 2 providers had lower costs than Cohort 1. This was due to standard best-practice clinical protocols, and a patient-centered clinic approach. They also noted a decrease in the requirement for advanced imaging and surgery. A visit to a chiropractic clinic could cost between $60 to $165. The first visit usually involves consultation with the doctor regarding your general health. X-rays may cost between $44 and $159 and a hydrotherapy system, which uses hot and cold water to stimulate the body, can cost between $50 and $500. In most instances, however, Chiropractor near Addison TX; clinics offer discounts for first-time patients. Some offer packages which include the first appointment. The cost of chiropractic services for back pain can vary widely. To be qualified to be chiropractor, they must be trained for a long time and pass extensive testing. The fees they charge are typically higher in areas where the availability of chiropractors is not as good. However, in both cases the cost you pay will be worth the benefits it may bring. It is important to remember that chiropractors who are willing to spend the time and effort to treat back pain is worth the extra cost.

Paternity means fatherhood. Establishing paternity is the legal process of determining the biological father of a child. When parents are married, paternity is usually established automatically. If parents are unmarried, paternity establishment is not automatic and the process should be started by both parents as soon as possible for the benefit of the child. Without the establishment of paternity, the father does not have the legal rights or legal responsibilities of a parent. Establishing paternity is necessary before custody, visitation, and child support can be ordered by the court. Establishing paternity allows an unmarried father to have his name placed on the birth certificate. Paternity can be established either by signing a Declaration of Paternity form or by going to court. If a father becomes involved with his child from the beginning of the child's life, he is more likely to continue to care both financially and emotionally for the child as he or she grows.

Surrounded by family, friends and several of his country music heroes, Luke Combs became the 211th member of the Grand Ole Opry on Tuesday night (July 16). Following an invitation by Chris Janson, Craig Morgan and John Conlee in June, Combs was officially inducted by Vince Gill and Joe Diffie, and fans packed the Opry house to show their support. The multi-generational audience could be heard singing along to a performance by Combs that included mega-hits "When It Rains it Pours" and "Beer Never Broke My Heart." Combs used the word "humbling" to describe the experience of being welcomed into the hallowed institution — here are five moments that show what he means. 1. "When you come here, you're just treated like you're supposed to be here." In a pre-ceremony press conference, Combs spoke to media about the significance of becoming a part of the Opry family. One aspect he and his peers often comment on is the camaraderie and respectful nature of the Opry family, ranging from his fellow members to the security staff. As someone who lives by the Golden Rule, Combs sees those same values in the Opry. "I always try to treat people the way that I would want to be treated and the Opry is kind of the pinnacle of that to me," he says. "When you come here, you're just treated like you're supposed to be here — like you deserve to be here — and that goes a really long way with me. I'm just honored to be a part of it." 2. "I loved writing songs." Before he was selling out arenas, Combs has long been anchored by his passion for music. While his career continues to skyrocket, the "Hurricane" singer is grateful knowing that he'll always have a sacred space to showcase the songs he creates at the Opry, further connecting him to his love of music. "I loved writing songs and I loved playing those songs for people who loved to hear them, and I think at the end of the day, that's what this is all about," he explains. "To know that as a member of the Opry family I'll have the opportunity to continue to share my songs with people for the rest of my life, I think that is a really awesome, important thing for me." See Luke Combs 10 Best Songs. What's Your Favorite? 3. "This is what dreams are made of right here!" Twenty-eight-year Opry member Vince Gill was one of the many who helped welcomed the fast rising hitmaker into his new musical home. It was a full-circle moment for Combs, Gill's concert was the first concert he attended when he was 6 (with his mother and grandmother), both of whom were in the audience on Tuesday. Always a poet, Gill raved about Combs' talent as a vocalist before taking a more reverent tone, reflecting on the history of the institution and the power in connecting with the most important people at the Opry — the fans. "This is what dreams are made of right here, a night like this," Gill began. "What I want to tell you about this place is you look around and you see all these people out here. If you'll come here and if you'll invest in the people and this stage, you'll get back a hundred fold what you ever give to this place. It's been going on for 93 years and going so long because this stage represents the entire history of this music, not just what's current," he said, praising that Combs is at the top of his game. "This place will benefit because you'll come here." 4. "I will never forget tonight." Surrounded by an army of supporters, including recent inductees Janson and Dustin Lynch, alongside veteran acts Morgan, Mark Wills and the Gatlin Brothers, Diffie took a moment to look back on his induction 25 years prior before making Combs an official part of country music history. "I just remember being asked to be a member of the Opry and it was like a dream, it still feels like a dream, even to this day," Diffie reflected, roars of applause coming from the crowd. As Combs officially became a member of the Grand Ole Opry, he thanked the crowd profusely for making his dream a reality. "Without you all, there is no country music, there is no Grand Ole Opry," he said, raising his Opry statue in the air. "Thank you so much for everything that you guys do for making this possible for guys like us on this stage. I will never forget tonight." 5. "This One's for You" Combs brought the monumental experience to a close with the song he cites as his favorite he's ever written. The namesake of his debut album that helped launch his star status, Combs concluded his set with an acoustic rendition of "This One's for You" that serves as a humble thank you to the people that have remained by his side, with Combs dedicating it to the family, friends and fans in the audience ranging from his fiancé Nicole Hocking to his high school chorus teacher. It's a song that holds more meaning than ever in 2019.

Auricular medicine is a neurophysiological form of modern acupuncture. It was developed in France by Dr. Paul Nogier (medical doctor and engineer), Dr. Renee Leriche (vascular surgeon) and Dr. Renee Bourdiol (professor of neuroanatomy at the faculty of medicine Sorbonne University Paris), as well as other medical colleagues in France, Germany, United States and Spain. Dr. Nogier and his colleagues viewed the human ear as a microsystem, a hologram for the entire body. This is medically and anatomically substantiated, as ten of twelve cranial nerves pass through the ear as they leave the brain and feed into the body. By stimulating specific points in the ear either by laser, needles, magnets or mild electric stimulation, a signal is sent directly to the brain and from the brain to the corresponding glands or organs in the body, creating a therapeutic effect. Auricular medicine is the therapeutic of choice by many M.D’s. in Europe and Latin America because of its intimate association with neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and neuroendocrinology. There exist very few practitioners in North America because of the complexity and the time required to master this form of acupuncture. Fortunately, the patients of Immumed can benefit from the expertise of Christine Kozlowski who has studied with the originators of auricular medicine, Dr. Paul Nogier (France), Dr. Frank Bahr (Germany), Dr. Claude Piro (France), Dr. Noel Cordon (USA), Dr. Julien Kenyen (Great Britain) amongst others. Christine’s practise in this holographic microsystem of acupuncture has been uninterrupted from the late 1970’s until today.

Designing participation and discussion in public space: the Pop-up Forum explores how the exchange between strangers can be facilitated through design. The Pop-up Forum creates space where strangers come together to exchange opinions and personal views on a socio-political topic. It aims to promote socially relevant dialogues and stimulates to explore thought experiments before votings, as well as exchange different perspectives and invites people to step out of their own social bubble. The challenge was to create a space in which everyone feels invited to participate, to pursue a certain topic, while agreeing or disagreeing.

How does a business owner gain a reputation for high quality for his product or service? How does he keep that reputation? Owners will be quick to reply that they earn this reputation by hard work and attention to detail, but competitors may disagree. Competitors often enter a market confident that their innovations clearly improve upon existing offerings, but they are also often disappointed by the response of their market. Even though their product is clearly higher in quality, they cannot wrestle sufficient market share from the existing brand, and they quietly disappear. Consider the case of June Todd and her husband Allan. Allan was June’s high school sweetheart, but graduation separated them. They rekindled their romance at their 25th high school reunion, and soon, June found herself relocating to California. California had many wonderful advantages, but she missed her Val’s pizza. Val’s was the best, and nothing available in her adopted city came close, so one day, Ms. Todd bought a Val’s franchise and opened a little pizza take-out on main street. After a year, she closed, deep in debt and bewildered by her experience. The people didn’t come. The pizza was better, but that didn’t matter. Her husband, Allan, was sympathetic, but he was also sympathetic to the small eateries in town who had held onto their customers. He was the owner of a 100-year old bank that had been started by his great grandfather, and every time a new bank opened in town, he held his breath hoping his customers wouldn’t notice the advantages they offered. So far, so good. June and Allan have close, first-hand experience with a psychological process that is well known to business researchers. It’s called attention blocking, and it’s largely responsible for both June’s failure and Allan’s success. Here’s how it works. When consumers make purchasing decisions in a competitive marketplace, they have to make judgments about relative quality, that is, they have to form opinions about the quality of the alternatives available to them. A grocery shopper, for example, facing a display of peas must form a judgment about the quality of the various brands. This judgment is an integral part of making a selection, any selection, but it’s a lot of work. Consumers don’t have enough time or interest to make well-informed relative quality judgments every time they make a purchase, so they take mental shortcuts. Attention blocking is one of them. With attention blocking, a consumer attaches a “good quality” tag to a specific brand or business, and then he blocks out any further quality information about the entire category of products, including new competitors. Their purchasing decisions reflect it. June couldn’t get people to consider a new place to buy pizza. Allan continued to make a living offering an inferior banking service. Robert Oxoby, from the University of Calgary, is interested in attention blocking, and he recently completed a series of experiments exploring how it works. Interestingly, he was able to turn it on and turn it off. He was even able to employ it with brand extensions, i.e. unrelated products carrying the same brand name. Business owners interested in taking advantage of attention blocking, like Allan, will be interested in how he did it. Business owners like June, who want to defeat it, will probably be discouraged. People attach “good quality” tags to products and services when they encounter a perfect predictor about quality. Perfect predictors can come with personal experience, word-of-mouth, expert opinions of others, advertising, or a combination of all four, but the key is that they all agree. At a critical point, a decision is made about quality, and a mental shortcut is established. Many times, this is a permanent decision, and purchasing behavior will reflect it for many years to come. A woman may love her Camry and stick with the Toyota brand for the rest of her life. Oxoby found that the order in which information is presented to consumers is crucial in forming a perfect predictor. He did it merely by repeating a statement about quality a few times in a pre-learning phase of his experiment, and the statement didn’t even mention a physical attribute relating to quality, only brand name or price. Later in his experiment, when he introduced a second perfect predictor that did describe a physical product feature, his subjects ignored it. But subjects who had not encountered a perfect predictor in the pre-learning phase did notice the physical attribute relating to product quality, and they used it to judge quality. For business owners like Allan, Oxoby’s findings display the advantage they have in protecting their markets and the opportunities they enjoy extending their brands into new products and services. They must lead with their brand name, and it will block attention to true quality attributes. For business owners like June, his findings reveal the challenges they face and offer a way to proceed. They must find a way to introduce their offerings as new, so they don’t immediately fall into an existing product category, and they must lead with product attributes that genuinely reflect quality. For example, June could have differentiated her pizza with a place name like Chicago style pizza, and she could have led with a genuine comparison of a product feature like the ounces of meat or cheese on her pizza. Attention blocking is a barrier for some and a blessing for others. Thanks to Robert Oxoby, we now know a little more about it.

“ We found Mike, Chris and the team to be reliable, hard-working, tidy and above all excellent craftsmen. We are delighted with the work they have performed on the replacement of our roof and would recommend them whole-heartedly. We thought having the roof replaced would an invasive process, with both of us working from home, but that was not the case at all. The team appeared every morning bright and early and got on with the job, only disturbing us if they had a specific question. Overall it was a painless process and we can't thank Mike enough for his management of the job throughout. ” S & P Athey, Minchinhampton “ Mike and his crew were brilliant. It was a long job - 7 months - re-building an old house. The attention to detail and quality of workmanship was second to none. The entire team were courteous and helpful throughout; extremely tidy; very patient when changes to the plan were made; good at explaining what was going on and best of all completed the job bang on time and exactly on budget. ” D Pitcher, Minchinhampton “ We were so lucky to be recommended Mike Acton and his team to join our renovation project that had been limping along and wasting money for 18 months already. I only wish we had found him sooner. He is fast, efficient and works to a high standard which totally turned things around for us and made it a pleasure again. Communication has been so easy and effective, I don't think we have had the good fortune of working with such a good builder before and wouldn't hesitate to use him again. So pleased to have found someone decent and reliable who we can employ in the future on more madcap listed building ventures with total peace of mind that things will get done on time, on budget and to the standard we (perfectionists!) expect. All with a smile and some great cost effective problem solving along the way. Thank you Mike. ” J.D., Minchinhampton “We would not hesitate to recommend Mike Acton. The quality of workmanship is unrivalled in the area and his team of craftsmen are each extremely skilled in their area. Costs and budgets are clear and there is a real pride in a proper job done right. Mike is used to working with old houses and coming up with sympathetic solutions to difficult problems and the result is just right. Stonework is a particular strength.” Mr J Lewis, Chalford “Mike did a great job on Beechwood Cottage, offering helpful advice in addition to working on site and arranging a range of specialist tradespeople. I wasn't the easiest of clients, spending large amounts of time away during the work. However I felt informed at all stages and through a combination of phone, email and photographs everything was discussed and solutions agreed.” Mr N Barker, Longridge “Despite the terrible weather this year, Mike and team have remained cheerful. They have always kept us up to date with what was going on. We are very happy with the extensions and would definitely use Mike again.” Mr P. Staff, Amberley “Mike and his team have transformed our home, building us an extended kitchen/diner (which we will love for years). His attention to detail is exceptional and we are so impressed with the quality of the finish. Competitively priced, Mike promised that the work would be done in two months, start to finish. And it was. The team were considerate, incredibly hard working and worked to a very high standard. The neighbours have come asking us for Mike's number, so impressed are they with what they've seen. We will definitely go back to Mike for phase 2 of the building work. Thank you Mike, Chris, Ollie and Steve.” Nicola & Andrew Wilde, Nailsworth “In desperate need of a GOOD builder for a major cottage renovation we were recommended to contact Mike. This was the best advice offered! Right from the start Mike's input was invaluable. Mike and the team turned up on time and got all the planned work finished on schedule together with lots of additional jobs which seemed to materialise as the job went on. All I can say is a huge “thank you” to Mike & Chris, real professionals and great guys to have around.” John Thompson, Arlingham “I would highly recommend Mike and his team to anyone looking for a quality builder who can deliver on time and within budget....excellent” S Jackson, Stroud “The best builder we have ever worked with. Turned a complicated job, full of unexpected problems and complications, into a relatively stress-free exercise. We completely restored a 17th century cottage from top to bottom insisting on traditional materials and an authentic, top quality finish. Mike and his team undertook the brief to perfection, whilst also suggesting improvements and cost savings along the way. The job was completed on time and under budget. Highly recommended. ” M Jenner, Tarlton “We are thrilled with the Kitchen Extension which Mike has built for us and would recommend him to anyone who wants a job well done. He is definitely a hard worker, a problem solver also he has plenty of patience and a sense of humour. It has been a positive experience and we will definitely be using him again. We must also not forget Chris, Luke & Ollie, thanks to you all. ” Barrie & Janet Twyning, Leonard Stanley “Mike's attention to detail and general attitude to work was superb. Not only did he have great knowledge of what he was doing, but offered wider advice on other aspects of the house. The quality of workmanship was excellent and the finished product is superb. He went over and above what was required, taking extra time and attention to really finish the job off. A very positive experience, I definitely recommend Mike for any work and will be using him again in the future.” Mr D Asplin, Stroud “We're absolutely delighted with Mike's work. He effectively renovated our whole house. We live in a terraced house and he renovated it for us in 3 stages. First stage was the second floor which is our bedroom, where he took down the whole ceiling and installed central heating. He also added an en suite here. On the first floor all the windows were replaced and on the ground floor the existing kitchen and bathroom were completely stripped and replaced with new. He re-built the rear wall, replaced the roof and installed a skylight window AND he built us a patio in the garden. Mike is brilliant. He's very reliable and very tidy. He's a bit of a perfectionist so he always made sure he cleaned up after himself. We wouldn't think of using anyone else at this point. We can't recommend him highly enough.” Mr & Mrs Tipper, Stroud “We have used Mike Acton for a range of work over several years including completely renovating a bedroom and bathroom. Mike has a wide range of skills including plastering, carpentry and plumbing - in fact he seems to be able to turn his hand to almost anything. We have found him to be honest, reliable and his charges are very reasonable. We would have no hesitation in recommending his work.” Linda Lane and Anne Morgan, Pitchcombe “Mike is first and foremost a very reliable, diligent and hard working builder. He turns up when he says he will and communicates clearly with you. His work is to a very high standard and he is respectful of your home cleaning up at the end of each day. He created a downstairs toilet and shower room for us which had potential for unexpected problems along the way. Mike is a very good problem solver and found solutions that did not cost the earth and gave us what we wanted. I would highly recommend Mike to my family and friends and would use his expertise in any further building work.” Brendan McIntyre, Dursley. “Mike, Chris & Luke have fully renovated my 18th century cottage and built a small extension. They completed the work on time and on budget to a very high standard. I was very impressed with their professional approach and would not hesitate to recommend them.”

Try as we might, we won't always know what a type should be at every given point in time. In these situations it's important that we choose a suitable way to represent such a type which is both safe and broad enough. This is where any, unknown and never come in. Primer Recall that with Typescript we have these assignability rules for the any type. Any type is assignable to the any type. The any type is assignable to any other type. Keep these in mind as we move on to talk about any, unknown, and never in terms of assignability rules. The rules for any The any type obeys the two rules from our primer, but it's worth noting that the second rule isn't completely true, because the any type is not assignable to a type of never. The rules for unknown The unknown type obeys only the first rule: Any type is assignable to the unknown type but not the second rule, because we can only assign the unknown type to another unknown type or the type any. The rules for never The never type obeys only the second rule: The never type is assignable to any other type but not the first rule, because we can never assign any other type to the type never, not even the type any. Which to choose Which type to choose depends on what you're doing. Are you migrating a JavaScript codebase to TypeScript? Are you expecting an unknown type? Are you expecting a function to never run? 1. Are you migrating a JavaScript codebase to TypeScript? Then keep the any type handy to tell the type checker to ignore some types while you perform your migration -- this seems to be the main reason any was created in the first place[3]. In essence, use the any type when you are sure you want to ignore type checking on a variable. Other than this, I personally don't see a strong use case for any in a TypeScript codebase, given how dangerous it can be in allowing errors seep through from one function to another. 2. Are you expecting an unknown type? In cases where a type is unknown, it's advisable to use the unknown type and avoid the use of any. The main reason for this is because 'any' effectively silences the type checker when used, causing errors such as undefined to sneak in. Instead, prefer unknown. The beauty of using 'unknown' to represent an unknown type is that when we try to access the properties of an 'unknown' type, the type checker reminds us that we're trying to perform a dangerous operation. Now, the very fact that we're trying to access a property of an unknown type means we now know something about that previously unknown type. So a warning from TypeScript at that point is a great reminder to update our unknown type with the details we now know about it, before trying to access it. 3. Are you expecting a function to never run? As for never, it doesn't really help when dealing with migrations or values of unknown types, but it is the perfect type to use when we know a function will never run or never return anything. This is different from void, in that we can expect a void function to return even after performing operations with no side effects or return values. However, a never function will never return... it might throw an error, run infinitely, or simply represent code that will never be reached.

LaDiamondBlue, actress , singer – songwriter and proclaimed “love child”, was born LaDiamond Blueford on December 2, 1994, in Los Angeles, California. A true 90's baby with matching flair, she credits her musical and vocal influences to artists such as Indie Arie, Brandy, Aaliyah, Monica, and Beyoncé. With deep roots in music equipped with being raised by a musically inclined family, her grandfather being a local and well known Blues singer and her mother being a member of a singing group and winner of the ‘Gong Show’ in 1977, she fused all of her inspirations thus designing her very own melodic niche. Beginning at the age of 7, Blue discovered her own voice after multiple divine circumstances such as her unforgettable elementary school performance, becoming a member of the McCoy Memorial Baptist Church Children’s Choir, and at the age of twelve winning the Gospel American Idol Competition in 2006. The following year she began writing her own songs and at age 15 began in studio recording. It was evident then that LaDiamondBlue would have a long lasting and budding relationship with music for years to come. As a student of Texas Southern University, LaDiamondBlue was given an outlet to join forces with other performing arts students who shared her dream of impacting the world through music. Commencing her freshman year, she collaborated with another student and featured on songs, such as “A.I.D.S.” (Alcohol In Da System...), “Living Life With No Air,” and “Thuggish Luvn”. Rightfully, Blue’s name grew on campus, attracting a crew of students with Film and Art majors who would continue building lasting relationships beneficial to her movement and career. During her second year of college, she gained the lead role as “Dena Jones”, in TSU’s adaptation of the iconic play, “Dream Girl”, and was nominated for The Kennedy Center for Performing Arts, Irene Ryan Award. Her junior year in college, she officially became the co-founder and President of TSU’s highly sought after Hip-Hop Dance Group, ‘Raw Materialz.’ With the amazing support of TSU, upon earning her degree in Telecommunications and TV & Film, Blue traveled to Beijing and Paris where she performed and worked towards perfecting her craft she spoke highly of the experience stating “Sometimes I feel like I’m dreaming.” The dynamic songstress who devotes her gifts to multiple musical genres especially Neo Soul and R&B, has a writing and performing style befitting of her own character; it is lively and profoundly resonates with her audience. Fans have said that LaDiamondBlue’s first single, ‘With U’ (2016), “makes them want to fall and be in love.” She affectionately enjoys writing and singing about the emotional journey her mind, body and soul takes when she experiences pivotal moments regarding family, love, relationships, and pain. She loves writing to the sound of the bass and singing from her soul, creating the most timeless and heartfelt compositions stating that “I get a natural high, an adrenalin rush, when I’m writing and recording.” LaDiamondBlue declares through her music she desires “to help others stay encouraged” wanting her style to gain notoriety that is sought out due to the depth of her lyrics and the quality of her compositions thus guaranteeing to one day be recognized globally for her musical benevolence and philanthropy.

Yesterday our beloved family from Austria returned the West for another surf lesson with Kalo Surf Surfschool. After a short introduction on the beach on the take off and pop up they jumped back into the water and took one wave after the other. Beach onlooker applauded especially the little ones for every wave that was surfed and further motivated them. The three hours course passed by flying and all can be proud of their achievements.

MRC as he is becoming known, published this article below, earlier. Although the scoop is gone sung to the tune of The Thrill is Gone by BB King, I still think My take may enforce MRC’s thesis - beware of picking fights with the teachers and education workers. A little history lesson next from a former history teacher and occasional professor, if you will indulge. ​ My active political involvement dates back to the Bill Davis Tory Regime although the course I taught as a sessional for York U was billed as “The Politics of Ontario Education 1945 to 2003. Teachers became unionized in Ontario in the wake of the labour upheavals at the end of WW1 as returning soldiers who had been shot at for four years for Canada, faced unemployment. This tends to irritate, to say the least. The time was memorialized by the great Winnipeg General Strike but similar labour-farmer revolts convulsed Canada, Europe and the USA. Teachers really gained statutory union membership during the latter part of WW2. Tory premier George Drew, after a critical by-election loss to OSSTF teacher Joe Noseworthy CCF in South York, noticed that teachers had moved heavily to the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation - CCF the forerunner of the NDP. Teachers, it was well known, were the backbone of Noseworthy’s campaign. Drew called the teacher leaders in and asked what was driving them in the CCF direction. The teachers wanted statutory membership (membership by law) meaning if you work in a public, public catholic or public French school you were automatically a member of the union. Drew came around but felt one big union would be too powerful so he legislated them into five different unions splitting them elementary, secondary, male, female, catholic, French. Two have subsequently been allowed to merge creating ETFO, alongside OSSTF, OECTA and AEFO. This situation largely persisted during the Leslie Frost, John Robarts, ongoing Tory dynasty but one issue eluded the teachers federations AKA the unions. They did not have the right to strike and as a result they believed themselves to be underpaid. They dealt with this by collecting mass resignations when bargaining reached an impasse but all and sundry believed the situation to be unsatisfactory. Your scribe signed his first contract to teach for $7400 in 1974. The Bill Davis Regime 1971-1985 In retrospect, Bill Davis was generally good for education overall. He created TVO, OISE and the Community College system, but the most critical issue was the right to strike. Since teachers did not have the right to strike, they had gone to their backup tactic. Teachers contracts only allow them to resign in the spring for September or December effective January. When teachers fell behind, the unions collected mass resignation letters effective mid year. You can hardly forbid resignation. A provincial appointed committee studied the issue 1970-72, the Reville Committee, and they recommended compulsory arbitration. With inflation running high teachers submitted mass resignations for 1973. Education minister Tom Wells 'nullified’ the resignations and attempted to force the teachers into arbitration. A massive teacher rally Dec 18 1973 (your scribe was there) filled Maple Leaf Gardens and then marched to Queen’s Park. In the Christmas spirit they sang “No Wells No Wells”. This was followed up with a one day strike at which point Davis threw in the towel and granted The Teachers and School Boards Collective Bargaining Act - Bill 100, the right to strike for teachers had come to Ontario. Davis had one more act in his play. As he exited the scene, fearful that catholics were both growing and abandoning the Tories in large numbers, Davis granted catholic education an extension on its full funding from K-10 up to K-13 at which point OSSTF exploded in anger that has never subsided, and OECTA raised Davis to sainthood. Frank Millar, Defeat, the Peterson-Rae Accord. In 1985, Millar, the new PC leader called an election, lost 18 seats and the popular vote but clung to a 52-48 lead over David Peterson’s Liberals. The NDP under Bob Rae, however, had 25 seats and the balance of power. Peterson and Rae drew up a legislative accord and pushed Miller out with a no confidence vote, making Peterson the premier. The Accord continued the catholic grade 11-13 funding model. David Peterson 1987-1990. After the Accord was exhausted, Peterson called a new election and won a huge majority, based on the popularity of the agreement. Many thought a new dynasty had arrived but the government was almost immediately in trouble. A series of scandals, the famous Patti Starr scandal and “fridgegate” created a bad smell. Like many governments, Peterson got the idiotic brain fart that the teachers were not paying a high enough percentage of their pension. If they did, the government could shift money elsewhere and avoid a tax increase. A deficit loomed and everybody could feel it. Peterson was having a Liberal policy convention in Hamilton and the teachers’ federations organized a massive demo in Hamilton to show their anger. At Copps Coliseum Bob Rae made a stem winding speech and received a huge standing ovation. As it died down he prophetically quipped, “ah yes but will you love me tomorrow”. Peterson made a second fatal mistake. He called a quick election three years into his mandate which seemed incredibly manipulative to the electorate. Teachers protested at every Liberal event as did environmentalists. With only two weeks to go the poles shifted heavily against Peterson, but with a very unpopular Tory Mulroney a the federal level, Ontarians were in no mood to reward the Tories just yet. The result shocked the province, a huge majority for Rae and an NDP government. The Miracle turns to Disaster - Bob Rae NDP Government 1990-1995. In a matter of five years, Bob Rae managed to throw away a miracle progressive win that the CCF-NDP had been dreaming of for almost 60 years. In fairness he was dealing with a deep recession and burdened with many expectations but like Kennedy assasination, or 9/11 I knew exactly where I was when he abandoned public auto insurance, the centerpiece of his election campaign. I had a feeling in my gut that said, “he's finished as of today, the betrayal was just too deep. I quit the NDP that day and didn't rejoin until Jack Layton asked me to renew in 2002. It got worse, the late Tony Silipo as Minister of Education, tried to bring in a progressive, program based on equity. He was replaced, The Royal Commission on Learning was established which set the stage for an entire series of neoliberal reactionary policies including a College of Teachers, a regime of useless reactionary standardized testing are only the worst. An utter disaster ensued but we are not finished. In 1993 Rae unleashed the Social Contract, basically time off in lieu of wages, in the public sector, Rae totally misjudged the reaction of, for our purposes the teachers plus the broader public sector who turned on him with a vengeance. Who in politics, doesn't understand that when you launch an attack on the very core of your base, you are a dead premier walking? The NDP limped into 1995, and dropped from 74 seats to 17, from 37% of the vote to 20%. Such is the price of launching an assault on teachers and the public sector. The Mike Harris Disaster 1995-2003 Mike Harris was elected on his Common Sense Revolution and set to work almost immediately. By 1997 he brought forward the notorious Bill 160, with a new funding formula for education designed, according to the eventual Rozanski Report, to extract $1 billion from the K-12 education budget, prep time for high school teachers was cut in half. This promoted teachers to go out on a “Political Protest” which amounted to an eventual two week wildcat strike. Teachers were already participating in Days of Action, General Strikes on a city by city basis, 11 cities in all. Harris also amalgamated the school boards and took over full control of education funding in an upload download scheme. Parents joined teachers fighting back with a Green Ribbon Campaign. Harris put the education system into chaos and eventually paid a steep price. Harris managed to survive the 1999 election but lost 23 seats. The NDP lost 8 seats, still fighting the Bob Rae curse, and only the McGuinty Liberals gained 5 in a smaller legislature. This allowed McGuinty to fight again in 2003. During the 1999-2003 term, Harris’ slash and burn approach caught up to him and his polls sagged to the point that he had to retire in 2002, and Ernie Eves took over as Tory leader. Teachers unions contributed heavily to a Group known as the Working Families Coalition which targeted the Tories with effective ads under the heading “Not his time Ernie, not this time.'' Yours truly was assigned to work for a Liberal in Scarborough Southwest. Eves and the Tories lost to McGuinty in 2003, not solely because of the teachers although they played a critical role. Other unions like OPSEU and CUPE also contributed heavily along with many other groups. Attacks on the public sector, 20% of all workers once again leads to defeat. The Tories survived two terms wounded in 1999, put out of their misery in 2003. The McGuinty-Wynne Liberal Regime 2003-2018 The Liberals were well aware that teachers had contributed heavily to their 2003 victory, both financially and in person power. The problem in politics is that memories and gratitude fade. Much like Hollywood, you are as good as your last movie A 600 delegate OSSTF convention, the beating heart of the union, is composed almost half and half by NDP and Liberals activists, with a sprinkle of farther left and green types. To keep their own people sweet, OSSTF in recent years has adopted a strategic voting approach to provincial elections. Of course since 2003, this has meant supporting more Liberal incumbents and second place candidates than NDPers. ETFO is about the same. OECTA has a reputation of being a little closer to the Liberals but often with prominent NDP leaders. After a good relationship had developed with McGuinty, who billed himself as the “Education Premier”, the eventual stab in the back came in 2012. McGuinty had worked himself into a $14-15 billion deficit due to the 2007-8 recession and its hangover. The issue came to a head in August-September 2012, when McGuinty demanded teacher accept a two year wage freeze or he would legislate it with a no strike contract. His own lawyers told him the teachers would go to the Supreme Court and win. Education Minister Laurel Broten became a lightning rod for the policy and it ended the career of a possible future leader. Even Liberal economic advisors told McGuinty, you don’t slay deficits during a recession. McGuinty tabled Bill 115 to end the strike, impose a contract and eliminated the banking of sick days, an unbelievably stupid move. Shortly after McGuinty resigned, more to do with a gas plant fiasco, he admitted that to Steve Paikin, that he went too far but always with the caveat that he needed to explain it more. Sigh. No premier, you just don’t do it period. Kathleen Wynne, long a teacher favourite, became premier and people expected more from this former activist trustee. Sadly it was not to be. By 2015 Kathleen Wynne was presiding over her own negotiation and chaos followed. The federations used rotations strikes but focussed on three boards. After 6 weeks, in May 2015, Wynne brought the hammer down and ended the strike effectively ending the Liberal relationship with the teachers unions. In 2018 in the provincial election, Doug Ford went from 27 seats to 76, Andrea Horwath went from 18-40 seats, abd Liberals dropped from 55 seats to 7. The PCs had risen 7% from 33-40%, the NDP had risen 11% from 22- 33% The Liberals fell from 38-19%, such is the fate of parties who abandon their constituency. The federations had virtually abandoned the Liberals and placed all their chips on the NDP, now the official opposition. . The Ford Scorched Earth Government 2018-2019. So now we are up to date and one more government has learned nothing from the past. Ford has, at least in the beginning, totally misinterpreted his mandate, believing Ontarians had voted for some kind of Common Sense Revolution Part Deux. The NDP actually got most of the falling Liberal vote but the Tories got enough to prevail. The election was a repudiation of the Wynne Liberals but it was not a mandate for Tory base politics. NDP + LIB + Green = 60% to PC 40%. Ford himself plus “Ford Nation” is skewed to the far right of the Tories and the incredibly rapid fall from grace is a testament to that. Quito Maggi of Mainstreet Research noted “he had never seen such a rapid decline of popularity of a new premier”. Ford is now regularly listed as the most unpopular or second most unpopular premier in Canada. He was already in freefall before he hit teacher negotiations. An attack on the funding of autistic children established Ford as unspeakably cruel. His initial demand that ON high schools go from average class sizes of 22-28 students per class, and his wildly unpopular demand that students take 4 compulsory e-learning classes enraged both teachers and parents. Polls instantly turned against Ford and his incompetant Education Minister Stephen Lecce. A massive consultation of parents by the government was undertaken but the government refused to release the results. A leak finally showed 70% of parents opposed the increased class sizes. Polling by the school boards association OPSBA from Nanos showed 61% of Ontarians prioritized the class size over 25% who preferred deficit reduction. The numbers for the government are far below the assumed Tory base of 30-33%. Ford’s personal approval rating was a dumpster fire at 24%. It seems the Ford government has had a rethink over their recent break and they have decided not to pick any new fights. Unfortunately, they are in the middle of this one. The government has lowered their class size increases from 28-25 and e-courses from 4-2 but this is still unacceptable to OSSTF, ETFO is already on a work to rule strike and OECTA is soon to join the other two. So what do we have here? One more government party has decided to attack the education system to try to extract $1 billion to put on their deficit, or tax cuts and in the process written their own suicide note. Conclusion: The same classic question Steva Paikin asked me on The Agenda, permeates Ontario politics. “But you guys (teachers unions) fight everybody regardless of party.” The answer is “yes because every government, of every party, at some point, declares war on the teachers.” From the teacher POV “we are simply defending ourselves.'' The wars between the teachers and the Ontario government date back to WW2 and involve almost every premier and, in my thesis, they have almost the same causes and the same results. Some of it is purely ideological, Tories despise the public sector and unions. Teachers’ unions are beyond the pale to Tories and much of their base. But how does that explain, Peterson, Rae, and Wynne? The easy catch all on the left is that the whole pack are neoliberals including Rae and this is not wrong but here is how I believe it plays out in real time. All governments scrutinize the Ontario budget carefully looking for ways to realign it more in their ideological POV. The constitution assigns health and education to the provinces. The breakdown is as follows Ontario Parties Slow to Learn, a War with The Teachers Usually Means a Quick Trip Back to Opposition Benches. As this article was in development, I was, to an extent, scooped by Martin Regg Cohn of the Toronto Star who I have gotten to know through a couple of mutual appearances on Steve Paikin's show The Agenda. Many of you know I was once an education writer freelancing for NOW Magazine in Toronto. The voice of my former editor at NOW Ellie Kirzner, still echoes in my head, “Doug, NOW thrives on scoops and in-depth features. If the Star has in on Tuesday, we don't want to publish it on Thursday”. As they look into health, they notice it is mainly nurses due to their numbers, not doctors. As they look at K12 education they notice it is 70% thereabouts teachers. Reactionaries like Tories soon realize they cannot give the tax cuts they want without raising taxes, increasing the deficit/ debt, or cutting teachers and or nurses. They often choose the former to finance their tax cuts and initiate a war with teachers and their allies. Even moderate progressives like Rae and Wynne professed to be, want the savings from education to finance welfare, transit, or other nice things. If asked, the teachers or nurses say fo-get-about-it. Increase revenues or shut the front door if the discussion is public, a bit bluer behind closed doors. The hits come in many forms. David Peterson (higher pension contributions by teachers), Bob Rae, (social contract), Mike Harris (new funding formula, less prep time,) Dalton McGuinty, (imposed collective agreement with two year wage freeze) Kathleen Wynne (back to work order), Doug Ford, (1% cap on wages, class size increases, compulsory e-learning). The general figure is $1 billion. Governments assume a $28 billion ed system is as good as a $29 billion system. They could not be more wrong. Teachers have two weapons with which to fight back. One the Brits likes to call ‘industrial action’ , strikes of various forms. The second is just as important. The political weapon is still potent notwithstanding new election finance rules. Teachers unions coordinate between the three larger federations, triage the swing seats and target them heavily in elections. They bomb the airwaves up to the writ drop, and marshall teachers to work in campaigns. The teachers all have multi million dollar “reserve funds” or strike funds. For perspective OSSTF is around $72 million, OECTA probably the same size, ETFO likely double. It is hard to predict the outcome of the current war between teachers (and ed workers) vs the province. I would simply direct The Ford Tories to one rather consistent political fact. David Peterson, Bob Rae, Mike Harris, Ernie Eves, Dalton McGuinty, and Kathleen Wynne are no longer premier and only Wynne still has a seat in the legislature, for how long we don't know. The unions are still here, still influential. Doug Ford might want to call them up and discuss the wisdom of a protracted fight with Ontario’s teachers and ed workers.

Even if you had not taken time to read through the author’s own notes about her collection of poems what would become patently obvious through her verses would be the love she holds for her family, for her fellow humankind and for her Christian faith. Lorna Wilson’s choice of words and phrasing moves from the lyrical to the pragmatic and back again, but never wanders into cynicism or bitterness. Many of her poems reflect her own struggles with fostering in the past but her feelings of honesty and respect for the struggles of all peoples of the world, to achieve peace and harmony through faith and dedication, are deeply held and shine through – something to be admired in a world of trolls and complainers. When I began reading it was with some hesitation as one who did not share the same faith as Lorna Wilson. However, her skill with words and her sincerity overcame my doubts in reading the majority of her poems. There were some minor errors through possible typos/edits but it did not spoil my overall pleasure. Some of my favourites were: A Troubled Teen; Game Changers Rule!; The Art Of Giving; The Ones We Love and The Voice Of A Little Child. But I could not agree or share in the sentiments of Before You Enter Heaven and I found the choice of words ‘… he follows her home…’ in He’s Captured Her Heart a bit too creepy and weird. Maybe I was being too cynical when I thought it sounded like he was stalking her and I preferred the word ‘escorts’ instead. Nevertheless I recommend Black Butterfly as a deeply considered collection of poems to make readers think seriously about their faith and their own sincerity it when comes to genuine feelings of love and respect for others. View all my reviews 0 Comments Book Review: Children of the Furnace by Brin Murray 23/5/2018 0 Comments Children of the Furnace by Brin Murray My rating: 5 of 5 stars I began reading Children of the Furnace with some trepidation as I thought it was a dystopian fantasy narrated in the first person and aimed at Young Adult readers. I am certainly nowhere near the age of young adults and find most fantasy novels lacking when I compare them to those of Tolkein and Mervyn Peake. Generally I prefer fictional tales told in the third person since it allows other scenes to be portrayed in a different time and place without obvious errors in the telling of either portrayal. For the first few chapters of Children of the Furnace some of the events that happened to Wil, one of the main protagonists, were so gross I did not think I could carry on reading. However, it was not long before I was gripped by this fast-moving, intriguing and very gritty tale. It was so very well written with such realistic characters in Wil and Leah that I found myself rooting for them right to the exciting denouement, when I found I was disappointed. Disappointed because I wanted more! And luckily there is a sequel for all the readers who will enjoy this fascinating tale of oppression, tyranny and cruelty – and even with strong hints of young romance. The conversations are believable and the characters are so well drawn that I was impatient to find out their destinies. Even though most of the narrative used by Wil is in some kind of southern state (?) future vernacular, difficult sometimes to understand, it did not spoil the “telling” and greatly added to the “showing” of the story. It just required a little patience and added colour to it. Revout Sachs and Dagmar Clout are exquisitely evil enemies of Wil and Leah and the twists in the tale delightfully pleasing. I can thoroughly recommend this novel to anyone, young or older and maybe with a strong stomach? But particularly to those that enjoy a story of good versus evil in a futuristic, very interesting, dystopian setting.

It tells the tale of our harshly treated apprentices in their later adult life. How do they cope and overcome the difficulties faced by downtrodden and overworked working class people in the early 19th century? Determination and ambition may not be enough but when love comes along can that help conquer the hurdles facing our two heroes and their family?​ LINK TO AMAZON 0 Comments Review: Unrequited: Poetry From The Hurting Heart by Mona Soorma 2/5/2018 0 Comments Unrequited: Poetry From The Hurting Heart by Mona Soorma My rating: 4 of 5 stars This collection of poems from Mona Soorma is a seemingly endless journey of sadness and I thought at one point that I would be unable to plod on towards the final verse. However, the poet’s skilfully imaginative use of words and metaphor in so many of her verses managed to keep me reading, feeling emotional and wanting more. So many of the poems are about fading hope, times past, lost love and a broken heart that one wonders when recovery can ever be found. But there are lighter moments to be found occasionally and Mona Soorma shows an uncanny ability to see meaning in her every observation of events or mundane action. I particularly enjoyed ‘Life-Breaths’; ‘Espy’; ‘Love and Dust’ (quote: Love lay lost along a lonely path/ Like a forlorn fallen rose…) and ‘Nostalgic’ (quote: I’ve seen the sky stretch its limbs/ In sinuous allure/ Gathering darkness within its being…). While I realise that poetry is often “in the eye of the beholder” I would have been more comfortable with this anthology if I had seen more evidence of the, often very helpful, application of punctuation marks. Even after reading certain verses more than once the correct places to pause or breathe for longer/shorter periods of time escaped me regularly. Maybe it’s my age or traditional education but it’s something that adds to my appreciation of the written word – even verse.

I feel like I don't understand how to even tackle gesturing. I watched Proko's video on gesturing and Alphonso Dunn's as well, but I still am at a loss. I've tried gesturing in the past and I got discouraged because of how bad I was, but I realize that getting discouraged because of my current skill is a bad mentality. Sidenote: I could probably find those gestures as well if it would help with getting advice. Support us to remove this November 24, 2020 3:42am #26419 Triplebatteries I think you have a good idea of it, gestures is about identifying the main movement of the figure, and how all the parts of the figure emphasize or play into this main movement. You are placing the action line in your figures which is key, just try focusing on how all the parts of the body flow into the action line you created. November 24, 2020 5:24am #26421 pablo_lopes Hi. I did proko, and my drawings looked liked yours. Since then, I moved on to They have a method on how to draw the gesture that is conected to the way the body distribute its force to reach a equilibrium. you should try. November 24, 2020 3:20pm #26422 Help Me Friends I'll give these both a shot, thanks for the help! November 24, 2020 8:36pm #26427 Polyvios Animations I love those quick poses, HelpMeFriends, I think you've really gotten the message of that exercise. Quick sketching is not about how beautiful your sketch is, it's how fast you can put it out with as few lines as possible. If I was to give you 2 suggestions, then they would be: 1- Work more from your shoulder and lesser from your wrist. 2- could you please do 30 minutes of 30 second life drawings from here and the rest of the Web? The reasons why is because: a) you'll not be able to spend as much time on the details, still, you can get to be more faster and economic with your line quality. b) Your gestural poses will become even more funnier and most caricatured in motion. I hope they've been completely and totally propitious. November 25, 2020 6:32am #26430 Ygrene7 Hi, i would recommend you to try out some other tools to work with. Try using charcoal and sharpen it correct way (doing it with sandpaper), you can achive better line quality. You should also try all sorts of grips, they will help you achieve a lot of diffrent line quality. Spend more time on realising what is comfortable for you, bigger format of paper or smaller. Also i would recommend that you work from your shoulder not from wrist that will help to get more action in to those drawings! Have a nice day! November 25, 2020 7:51pm #26434 Davidj XIII You are doing great, there is form there and the gestures show through. It just takes consistency over time and you will steadily feel more comfortable with the challenge gesture drawing brings and you will get the hunger to push through the suck. I recommend the website not as a replacement for here, but for good exercises and his comic series is great too, and how we can all relate to that feeling of "eurgh, this sucks!" but how it is all part of the journey. Just think of it as getting the rough sludge out, the more you do. The way I see it, the more I make and notice my mistakes, the more I am improving. So you're right, don't be discouraged by your current mindset, just keep watching others, challenge yourself and you will smooth out the rough edges sooner than you may think. Keep up the good fight! November 26, 2020 1:36am #26435 Help Me Friends Something I noticed from all your replies was draw from my shoulder, and I'm definitely not doing that. Davidj XIII mentioned drawabox, which im currently doing the box challenge for (#106/250), but I didn't really apply what I was learning there to an exercise like gesture drawing. One of the main things drilled into you when doing DAB is about shoulder movement, but for some reason I was only applying that within DAB rather than using it as a resource outside of it. I will make sure I implement it in my next session, thanks for helping me realize my mistake :) November 26, 2020 3:33pm #26441 Robojohn32 so what I see you are struggling with the most my friend is that you are trying scratch out your lines rather drawing them in one stroke. I suggest try drawing your lines using your shoulder rather then your elbow or wrist. It will allow you to make longer strokes. Also if you are new at it. Just start by focusing on the motion of the legs, arms, and head. After you get that down add the rib cage and then start addin in some more detail. December 1, 2020 11:20am #26460 Adamghering So, I think you are being a bit too hard on yourself. You gestures are what I would expect from someone learning and they aren't that bad frustration with your progress is something we all face and you will always have something you want to be better at. I would say just keep trying, keep doing, your work isn't bad at all. Also become better at controlling the pencil, do circles, lines, boxes all freehand and slow with an intention on being precise hold the pencil loose and draw from the shoulder also, I haven't seen proko's gesture videos but I learned from glen vilpu videos, they are kind of old but its a traditional old school class setting where you are watching glen draw. You can see the way he holds the pencil and how he draws from the shoulder which was really beneficial to me. His body mechanics of how he laid his lines down helped a lot! One of his lessons was just focusing on a flower sack or a kind of oval water ballon type of scenario. Imagine you have a squishy oval typ sphere and imagine how it would look if you put a gentle twist in it. Then lay down a center line of action and then gently frame the shape with curves to fill out the volume; making sure you overlap where the forms are laying in front of each other.

Thyroid imbalance can cause a host of issues, from weight gain to chronic fatigue. An estimated 20 million Americans are living with thyroid disorders, but fewer than half are getting the treatment they need to feel their best. Galen Healthcare & Aesthetics specializes in diagnosing and treating thyroid problems. If you think you could be suffering from a thyroid disorder, call the Greer, South Carolina, office or book a consultation online. We also service the Greenville, SC area. 864-383-7810 Request Appointment Thyroid Treatment Q & A What are thyroid disorders? Your thyroid is a hormone-secreting gland located in your neck. Thyroid hormones are essential chemical messengers in your body that control a wide range of functions, from metabolism to growth. Sometimes, thyroid hormones get disrupted and out-of-balance. When this happens, it can affect your body in a variety of ways. There are many different kinds of thyroid disorders, but the two most common are hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. If you have hypothyroidism, or N underactive thyroid, your body doesn’t make enough thyroid hormones. Hyperthyroidism, or overactive thyroid, is the opposite. It occurs when your body makes too much of the key thyroid hormones. What are the symptoms of thyroid imbalance? If you’re living with thyroid hormone imbalance, it can affect your physical and mental wellbeing. The type of imbalance that you have can cause different symptoms, but the impact can affect your body in numerous ways. Some common symptoms of hypothyroidism are: Unexplained weight gain Mood swings Depression Body aches Dry skin or hair Constipation Symptoms of hyperthyroidism are often the opposite of hypothyroidism and often include: Unexplained weight loss Irritability or feelings of nervousness Difficulty sleeping Rapid heart rate Frequent bowel movements Noticing any of these symptoms is an indication of a possible thyroid imbalance. The healthcare team at Galen Healthcare & Aesthetics offers diagnostic testing for thyroid disorders to determine if a thyroid imbalance is present. How are thyroid disorders treated? If you’re diagnosed with a thyroid disorder, your provider develops a treatment plan that fits your needs. Regardless of your disorder, thyroid treatment is focused on rebalancing hormone levels to help your body function optimally. The most common treatment for hypothyroidism is prescription levothyroxine, a synthetic thyroid hormone. Finding the perfect dosage for your needs may take time, but many people start feeling better shortly after beginning treatment. Hyperthyroidism can be treated with antithyroid medications that stop your thyroid from producing excessive hormones. Beta-blockers can minimize symptoms of hyperthyroidism, while radioactive iodine therapy can shrink enlarged thyroid glands.

Welcome to Module 22:30 教学方 Natasa Brouwer PhD Gunther Fleerackers Claire McDonnell Assistant Head of School Mauro Mocerino Associate Professor Iwona Maciejowska Ph.D. 以 免费 的价格试听课程 脚本 Welcome to Module Three. In this module, we will explore the concept of the good laboratory teacher and provide some tips and strategies to help you improve your teaching and become a good laboratory teacher. We begin the module by considering what good laboratory teaching is, and we do this by putting it in a context. We'd like you to consider your best laboratory teacher when you were a student, and then, from there, what were the characteristics? What did this person do that made him or her the best laboratory teacher you've had encountered? From having done that, we will then get you to look at some literature to see. How the literature states? Are they important characteristics of good laboratory teaching? We then move to an activity, in which we'll help you better understand your class. And before you start your class, knowing something about the background of your class, the academic background, the interests of your class, are they majors for your discipline, or are they doing your laboratory class because they have to and they have a major in another area? And also, what do the students already know? What are the things that you need to stress that will be new, or what do they already know and you don't need to focus on to any great extent? Finally, we will provide you with some strategies and tips on preparing for class. And this is helping you prepare students for class by suggesting some activities you can get students to do, so that when they enter the classroom, they are already prepared to begin the experiment. And also, an activity which will help you as a teacher prepare for class, so that you can run the class more smoothly. And, to finish off this introduction, I'd like you just to finish with the learning outcomes for Module Three. So on completion of this module, you should be able to carry out the points listed here. I hope you enjoy the module. Goodbye.

It starts with a sneeze, a cough, and a few sniffles. It can wind up being several days of achy stuffy misery. It's the flu. Louisiana's Department of Health and Hospitals says more and more Louisiana residents are falling prey to the annual malady than have been reported in previous weeks. Dr. Frank Welch, Medical Director for the state Immunization Program says four out of every 100 people who visit the doctor have the flu. That is an increase from previous reports and to be frank, it's typical for this time of the year. What we’re seeing, more than 95%, is an A-type virus, which is pretty common. It is covered completely in the vaccine, there is really good coverage this year. That's the good news about the bad news that Dr. Welch reported to the Louisiana Radio Network. Dr. Welch says that means that getting your flu shot now could really serve you well later in the season. For certain members of our population taking precautions against the flu isn't just about easing the suffering, it's about protecting your life. We have almost 500 people in Louisiana die every year from the flu, including 10s of thousands of hospital visits, hospital stays, illness, disability. Those who are pregnant and older citizens are the most likely to suffer the worst effects of the flu. Dr. Welch says the people in the state most likely to contract the virus are those in the early to mid -20's. That's most likely because of this fact. Younger members of our society are more social and in frequent contact with others. If you have a student in school or college Dr. Welch suggests strongly that you consider having your children vaccinated against the flu.

On January 13, 2012, the Guyana Energy Agency, represented by Special Prosecutor, Gino Persaud, secured a conviction against Delon Prashad at the Charity Magistrate’s Court before Magistrate Leron Daly. The defendant was charged with being in possession of one hundred and seventy gallons of illegal gasoline and now faces a fine of eight hundred thousand dollars ($800,000) or imprisonment for a period of one year. Though the defendant failed to appear in court on this and previous occasions, the prosecution continued ex parte resulting in his conviction. This conviction is testimony to the GEA’s rigorous prosecutorial stance in punishing offenders to deter further contravention of the law. This ruling now brings to 11 the number of successful convictions from prosecutions completed as at January 2012 ending. With several ongoing matters before the Courts, the GEA is poised to attain an even higher rate of conviction by the end of 2012. This recent phenomenon of increased success before the Courts is the product of legislation that was novel to the region and serves as a signpost that we have gotten it right. From the inception of the Fuel Marking Programme launched in 2003, there has been increased sampling and testing of fuel from year to year. Last year saw great success with a decrease in the number of instances of illegal fuel detected compared to previous years. Further, the GEA reiterated its intolerance for the possession, transportation, storage and sale of illegal fuel through the robust provisions embedded in the GEA (Amendment) Act 2011. . The GEA thanks those who continue to support its fight against fuel smuggling and would like to encourage all persons who may have information relating to fuel smuggling and possession of illegal fuel to contact the Agency at 226-0394 or 624-5905. Remember, fighting smuggling is everybody’s business! Illegal fuel ends up in mining camps, logging operations, agricultural machinery and motor cars. There are no checks on the quality of smuggled fuel and contaminants such as dust, water and other particles can cause serious damage to engines and other equipment leading to high maintenance and replacement costs. Further, those who smuggle and those who are comfortable using suspected smuggled fuel are robbing the nation of revenue.

ArtLabirinto, Imagini Labirint, Kururinpa, Maze Paint, Maze-a-Pix, Meikyu Kaiga, Meiro Puzzle, Picture Maze The word 'maze' brings to mind a complex network of narrow alleys between high hedges, with many junctions and dead ends. It is designed to be a puzzle. This distinguishes it from the much older idea of the labyrinth, a single-path structure that is often associated with aspects of ritual and brings to mind such things as pilgrimage, rites of passage, the journey of life, and so on. According to legend, labyrinths provide protection against evil spirits that, like drunken cyclists, are hopeless at negotiating corners. Good examples of labyrinths can be found in Roman mosaics, or inset in the floors of cathedrals (eg, Chartres, around AD 1200); carved on stone or in wooden door lintels, or shaped from turf (see the turf labyrinth at Saffron Walden, from 1699). For about 500 years, the hedge maze has been an established part of many formal gardens. The maze at Hampton Court Palace dates back to around 1690. This is a puzzle with which everyone is familiar. In addition to the hedge maze, mazes made from wooden panels are popular, especially in Japan. Giant cornfield mazes, which started out in the US, are increasingly seen in Britain. Mirror mazes exist at several popular tourist sites. There is also a large number of paper-based puzzles based on the idea of the maze – colour-sequence mazes, orientation mazes, no left turn mazes, sokoban-style mazes, and so on. One of the simplest and most ingenious of these is the picture maze, in which the route forms a picture. There are two approaches to solving the puzzle. The first is obvious, to follow the path; the second involves shading in the dead ends, so that finally, only the trail remains. For the maze designer, whose main objective is to create an environment that is designed to confuse and mislead, the main considerations will be the aesthetics of the form and attention to timing (people do not object to being misled, but only for a short while).
