The Huddersfield Broad Canal | before the marina there is another lift bridge which is more like a lift road. It's all electrically operated now but still uses the old pulleys to lift the road up. The Locomotive Bridge was opened in 1865 and replaced an earlier swing bridge. A combination of wheels, chains and counter-weights were used to lift the deck of the bridge out of the way of passing canal barges. Previously windlass operated, it was refurbished in 2002 and is now electrically powered. It is a fascinating bridge and very attractive too. The Locomotive Bridge | pulled into the C&RT services and I walked across the canal (you didn't know I could walk on water did you?) to the marina office. We were to leave Mary H breasted up against another boat while we are away. Richard went and got the car and brought it round to the services and we packed up and loaded the car. For the first time we haven't been able to leave the plants on the boat as there is no one around to water them. We the reversed back along the canal and breasted up against Vicky Lou. There is a huge Sainsburys next to the canal so I popped in and got a couple of sandwiches for lunch and we set off for home. Aspley Wharf | have been very lucky with water levels this trip. We crossed the Rochdale summit a week ago Sunday and last Sunday they closed it due to low water. We came down through the Salterhebble locks on Saturday and yesterday they closed them due to a problem. Just in case C&RT are reading this - it wasn't us honestly! have had a lovely four weeks. The weather has been mixed with the worst day being our exit out of Manchester when it was foul and we had 18 locks to do. Part of me is sad to be leaving the boat while the weather is so nice but it does get so hot in a sardine can and it can be difficult to find places to moor up under trees. Also there are so many locks to do on this journey - most of which are hard work. We start off again on Saturday 22nd to go down the Huddersfield Narrow Canal and Standedge Tunnel - the longest canal tunnel in the UK. of the things I have forgotten to write about is the Wainhouse Tower in Halifax. It is a folly and at 275 feet, it is the tallest structure in Calderdale and the tallest folly in the world, and was erected in four years between 1871-1875. The main shaft is octagonal in shape with a square base and 403 stairs leading to the first of two viewing platforms. The tower was designed by architect Isaac Booth as a chimney to serve the dye works owned by John Edward Wainhouse. The height of the chimney was to satisfy the Smoke Abatement Act of 1870 which required the building of a tall chimney, to carry smoke out of the valleys in which the factories were built. A much simpler chimney would have satisfied the requirements but Wainhouse insisted that it should be an object of beauty. In 1874 John Wainhouse sold the mill to his works manager who refused to pay the cost of building the chimney so Wainhouse kept the tower for himself and used it as an observatory. Booth left after a dispute and was replaced by another local architect, Richard Swarbrick Dugale, who is responsible for the elaborate galleries and the corona dome at the top of the tower. The tower was completed on 9 September 1875, at a cost of £14,000. The Wainhouse Tower | reason that I remembered that I hadn't written about the Hailfax tower is that there is another interesting one in Huddersfield which we could see from the canal but got a much better view of as we drove home. Emley Moor transmitting station is a telecommunications and broadcasting facility. The station's most visible feature is its 1,084 feet tall concrete tower, which is a Grade II listed building. It is the tallest freestanding structure in the United Kingdom, 7th tallest freestanding structure in the European Union, 4th tallest tower in the European Union, and 25th tallest tower in the world. As a widely-recognised landmark amongst the population it serves, the tower is still predominantly referred to as 'The Emley Moor Mast', possibly a legacy of the previous structure, even though it is easily the most far-removed from the definition of a 'mast' than any other transmitting structure in the UK.

Leer el artículo completo. Todos los días, en la ciudad de Londres, 30 millones de porciones de comida son servidas. Esto implica necesariamente la movilización de millones de camiones con destino a millones de tiendas y restoranes, componiendo un mecanismo orquestral de producción, transporte y distribución. Damos por hecho que este sistema sincronizado no falla nunca. Pero ¿Qué pasaría si estos camiones fueran detenidos? Por muy surreal que esto suene, esta situación ha ocurrido y no fue mucho tiempo atrás. En 1989, sobre el 57% del consumo calórico de Cuba era importado de la Unión Soviética. Tras su colapso, Cuba se convirtió de súbito en el único responsable en alimentar a su población, incluyendo los 2.2 millones que habitan en La Habana. Lo que sucedió después es una increíble historia de resiliencia e innovación. Mientras el universo se vuelve progresivamente urbano, nuestros cultivos tienden a reducirse y nuestra dependencia a los combustibles fósiles se vuelve adverso. En este escenario, la pregunta de cómo vamos a alimentar a miles de millones de habitantes de las ciudades en el futuro no es un mero experimento mental: se trata de una realidad contingente. La historia de Cuba levanta una pregunta interesante: ¿Cómo se verían nuestras ciudades si comenzáramos a instalar la producción/distribución del alimento como el principal foco del diseño urbano? ¿Qué se necesitaría para convertir esto en realidad? En su charla TED, ¿Cómo la comida puede dar forma a nuestras ciudades?, Carolyn Steel, autora de Hungry City, explica cómo, desde los inicios de la urbanización, las ciudades se han entrelazado con la agricultura, lo que es, por supuesto, lógico. No existe otra manera para que una ciudad pueda subsistir si no es con una fuente segura de suministro de alimentos. [...] Sin embargo, la industrialización transformó esta relación. Como afirma Steel, tan pronto como se comenzamos a utilizar el ferrocarril para la importación de carne -de animales ya sacrificados-, y vegetales -ya recogidos- hacia las ciudades, hemos “emancipado de manera efectiva [nuestras ciudades] de la geografía”. De pronto vimos que nuestras ciudades pueden brotar de cualquier forma a una alta y progresiva tasa de crecimiento. Pero este supuesto progreso tiene su lado oscuro. El habitante urbano típico de hoy no posee ninguna consciencia de dónde y cómo se produce/comercializa la comida. Nos hemos vuelto dependientes a grandes y poderosas corporaciones que operan a la máxima rentabilidad económica para proveer cantidades de comida a gran escala desde procesos industriales hasta nuestros supermercados, el único lugar donde se vuelven visibles. Todo lo que sucede entremedio es invisible para el consumidor, enormemente complejo y, en última instancia, insustentable. [...] El Caso de Cuba Agricultura urbana (Archdaily) | En la década de 1990, con la interrupción de las importaciones de la Unión Soviética y frente a una escasez masiva de alimentos, los ciudadanos de La Habana hicieron lo único que podían: tomar sus vidas en sus propias manos. En los balcones, terrazas, patios y terrenos baldíos, los vecinos comenzaron a sembrar frijoles, tomates, plátanos y cualquier alimento posible en el sitio que estuviera disponible. En el lapso de dos años, se levantaron jardines y granjas en todos los barrios de La Habana. El gobierno atendió esta iniciativa y en lugar de inhibirlas, orientó sus políticas para fomentarlo. En 1994, el recién creado Departamento de Agricultura Urbana llevó a cabo algunas acciones claves: (1) adaptó la normativa incorporando la planificación del Usufructo, volviéndolo no sólo legal, sino también libre para adaptar terreno sin uso y público a potencial territorio productivo; (2) entrenó a una red de agentes de extensión, miembros de la comunidad que monitorean, educan e incentivan a construir huertos barriales; (3) creó “Seed Houses” (Casas de Semillas) para proveer recursos/información; y (4) estableció una infraestructura de venta directa de Mercados Agrícolas para volver estos huertos rentables. Para 1998 se alcanzaron más de 8.000 huertos oficialmente reconocidos en La Habana- desde parcelamientos de manejo individual hasta grandes fincas de gestión estatal- cuyos productos son orgánicos (por necesidad, no se han importado pesticidas) y cubren un 50% de la producción de hortalizas del país. [...] En Cuba, así comenzo todo: ciudadanos involucrados tomando acciones a modo de respuesta a una situación de crisis. Antes de que la Agricultura Urbana se volviera una alternativa viable para alimentar a la población, se convirtió en un curso visible de acción. Si nos aproximamos a la idea de que la comida sea un lineamiento más de diseño urbano, acto seguido, debieramos ser capaces de usar el diseño para disminuir no solo la distancia física, sino también conceptual, entre nosotros y nuestros alimentos.

The Guardian reports that a massive fire broke out at Universal Studios Hollywood Sunday morning at around 5 a.m. destroying Universal’s Back To The Future set as well as a video vault, portions of the King Kong attraction at Universal’s theme park and the old Court House Square set, a standard in movies and TV since the mid ’50s and currently in use by CBS’s Ghost Whisperer. The L.A. Times reports that the blaze, with flames topping 90 feet and being fed by propane gas from ruptured canisters, burned until 10 a.m. and took more than 400 firefighters several hours to put out. Poor water pressure was a major issue for the firefighters as they battled the blaze with some firefighters saying they could only get ten feet of spay from the on-sight hydrants. At one point firefighters had to resort to pumping water from two man-made ponds, one of which was home to Universal’s animatronic Jaws attraction. The cause of the poor water pressure is under investigation. Unnamed sources have said that the fire was likely started by studio workers who were using welding equipment to repair a New York street scape, which was also destroyed by the fire. The workers were using the tools at around 3 a.m. Sunday, roughly 90 minutes later the fire was detected. The workers were said to be veteran Universal employees, and appeared to have followed all fire prevention protocols. L.A. County Fire Chief P. Michael Freeman said that investigators were still examining the cause and would not provide further details. “The investigation has ruled out any deliberate actions on the part of anyone,” said Freeman. When asked about a potential cause for the fire Cindy Gardner, a Universal spokeswoman, declined to comment saying only, “Anything now is speculative.

The baseball field used in the 1989 film Field of Dreams still sits in the middle of an Iowa cornfield. Because of the popularity of the movie, it has become quite a tourist attraction. Hundreds of fans visit the site on a daily basis during the summer months. Visitors are allowed to bring their gloves and bats and play on the field. The house, which was also used in the film, is not open to visitors, however. There has been talk of building a complex of youth fields here as well as a minor league ballpark, though supposedly it would not affect the original movie site. While the Field of Dreams site is a bit off the beaten path, it is worth a visit if you're passing through Iowa.

Book review: Lois Pryce – Lois on the loose Two years from now I am at the same age as Lois was, when she started her journey, 30 years old. Although I have not reached that age yet, the book is so recognizable that I am actually a little jealous and wondering if I could also ride this route in about two years. Lois on the Loose (www.loisontheloose.com) tells the story of Lois dreaming about a motorcycle adventure. The story begins with her daily routine, riding on her motorbike on the London highway to the office, ‘The Pigsty’. “Am I the only one who is so bothered by all this? Don’t they look with a twinge of jealousy to flashy engines that drive past? Don’t they imagine what it would be like not every morning taking the same highway exit, but to drive further and further until the road stops, or until the country ends?” These questions, that I asked myself every week as well, are being answered by Lois with a journey through the Americas, from Alaska to Argentina. Within a few weeks I had finished the book. And believe me, this is pretty fast for someone who does not read often and who does read very slowly. The book is full of fun facts about cultural differences, border crossings and rumors of overland motorcycle travelers. However, Lois is also finding herself several times, among other things after a motorcycle accident. Anyway, humor reigns in this book and very often I was rolling on the floor laughing my ass off. I read this book, because I wanted to know more about how a motorcycle trip would be. What should I look for? What should I bring with me and how? I was also curious about the differences between a female and a male way of driving and traveling. Lois describes her adventure full of emotion. The result is that I, as a reader, could quite readily imagine what kind of emotions I could experience during such a trip. Despite the fact that each person experiences emotions differently, I do find it good to know the different emotions that I could possibly have and how I might look at things. Of course my perception during such a trip will also occasionally be adapted to the environment. “Pieces of cloth nailed to the wall, the room breathed the atmosphere of the last hour of a flea market, where all products cost five cents. The television has only two channels, of which the screen will cause migraine by its flicker, the toilet does not flush and it looks like that halve of the ceiling will come down coming night. But I like it a lot here.” The tip that Lois receives from her boyfriend (and current husband) Austin Vince (www.austinvince.com) is that a motorcycle traveler must always have a goal in mind. Without a goal, you would be wandering around. This tip I have always bear in mind, and I did apply it during our trip through Scandinavia. Before this trip I made a day-to-day route so we had a goal every day we started driving. Several tactics to pay bribes will be helpful for the next trip, who knows where to go … Lois’ trust in people arouses enthusiasm in me to travel on a motorcycle outside Europe. In short, Lois on the Loose is a book that is easy to read. Reading it is a good start to be motivated for a longer trip, and at the same time you will receive the first tips for this journey!

Amongst all the other things I studied in college, I took a few courses in typography and was actually the layout editor where I worked on campus. As a result, I have an unhealthy obsession with readability/legibility. When I read a book (or MS), some things just stick out at me so much it drives me nuts. It's not my fault, I've been trained to notice. I'm sure the majority of people don't consciously note these seemingly "minor" typography issues. One of my biggest pet peeves? Two spaces after sentences. (Please note that I am entirely aware that this is still an acceptable typing practice, as horrifying as it is for ease of reading. I do not condemn you for your vile two-space habit if you have it.) But, so you know, you don't need two spaces after your sentences. Here's why: Modern computer typefaces allow proper distance between a period and the next sentence! They program it in, guys, promise. See, back in the good ol' days when people used typewriters there was only one choice in font: courier. (GAG!!! [can you tell I have opinions on this yet?]) And on those pesky typewriters, each letter (and space) was allotted the exact same amount of room. That meant the "i" had the same space as "m" and "W." So you'd get all these awful ugly gaps of serious grossness. Since everything was given the same space on said typewriter, you HAD to give two spaces between sentences so everything wouldn't run together in a terrible mess. Once a manuscript was all typed out like that, a typesetter would then set type in a totally different font (thank goodness) and put in the proper spacing between sentences. Then printing would ensue. Well, word processing has come a long way since then. Now our programs give "i" a small amount of space and "m" enough room to groove. And guess what? They even put the right amount of room between sentences without you having to press that space bar twice. So give your poor thumb a rest and tap it once...if you can. (I know, I know, habits are hard to break. At least now you know it's a BAD, BAD habit;P)

And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left. Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre. And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments: And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again. from Luke 23 & 24 Back to portion list.

Getting a residency visa for a new born baby might not be easy if are unsure about the visa process. Because of the time limits for some processes, you may have to plan ahead to complete the process. So it’s better to seek the help of a business consulting firm that can assist you in obtaining the visa. For obtaining a residency visa for a new born baby, you must apply within 90 days of the child’s birth. You will have to pay an amount of AED100 fine for each day if it goes beyond the deadline. The visa process is almost the same as for a family residence visa. As a leading visa service provider in UAE, Bizvise can help you obtain a residency visa for your new born child.

I want to discuss a very alarming new study that indicates that over 40% of children are born outside of marriage in this country. This situation is growing very serious and needs to be addressed in our parishes and homes. Here is a brief excerpt of the article: The number of children born outside marriage in the United States has increased dramatically to four out of ten of all births. Figures show that 41 per cent of children born in 2008 did not have married parents – up from 28 per cent in 1990. Researchers have concluded that although Christian values still play an important role in American society, public attitudes have changed. Having a child out of wedlock does not carry the stigma and shame it once did, they say. The study also found that in America there is a declining number of teenage mothers and rising numbers of older parents…. The U.S. research, taken from census reports and health statistics by the Pew Research Centre, also outlines a trend of couples in western societies marrying later in life and delaying parenthood until they can afford it. The share of births to unmarried mothers had increased most among white and traditionally Catholic Hispanic women. The article can be read here: 41% Of Children Born Outside of Marriage in US The numbers are really quite striking and increase from 28% to 41% in just 18 years. Note that the article lays the matter clearly at our feet, fellow Catholics citing that we have shown the greatest increase in unmarried mothers. As a Church we have to do a better job of addressing this very serious matter. It would seem that we should address it by re-emphasizing some of the following things: - Fornication and cohabitation are serious sins – We need to teach and re-emphasize that fornication (pre-marital sex) and adultery are very serious sins. They are mortal sins and, if one commits them and dies unrepentant, they are excluded from the Kingdom of Heaven. This is not the opinion of some grouchy old priest or Victorian parents it is the clear and consistent testimony of Scripture both in the Old and New Testaments. I have written on the Biblical teaching here before and you can read it here: Sober, Serene and Scriptural about Sex. I have also posted a PDF document that summarizes the Biblical teaching about pre-marital sex here: Biblical Teaching on Pre-Marital Sex. To be sure, some commit the sin of fornication in weakness but have recourse to confession and strive to master what is surely a strong passion. That is commendable. Yet to be so bold as to live together outside of marriage hardly demonstrates a contrition or a firm pupose of amendment. We must simply be clear that it is boldly sinful to cohabitate. - Fornication and cohabitation undermine marriage – We need to demonstrate that cohabitation and fornication undermine marriage. Sex is a gift from God to the married to strengthen the love, loyalty and marriage of man and women. Since they share a great blessing and pleasure together their bonds are strengthened and their union encouraged. From this shared love and pleasure their children come forth quite literally as a fruit of their love. But when fornication and cohabitation and other sexual misbehavior becomes widespread and acceptable in a culture, one of the great and unique benefits of marriage (sexual intimacy) that serves as a kind of glue and incentive for marriage is thus removed. That this true is demonstrated by the sky-rocketing of rates of divorce and further cohabitation. - Fornication and Cohabitation give scandal– Many people today think that giving scandal merely means to shock someone. But that is incorrect. To give scandal means to cause some one to fall by encouraging them or leading them to sin. One of the most scandalous aspects of fornication and cohabitation is that they NO LONGER cause shock. This means that this bad behavior is now having deep effects by robbing people of their shock and shame. It is very wrong to contribute to something that might cause my brother or sister to fall. Giving bad example or contributing to the notion that there is nothing wrong with premarital sex helps to lead others to this behavior. In the end we will be held to account for causing scandal or contributing to it unless we repent. - Fornication and Cohabitation are an injustice to children– Many who engage in pre-marital sex say they will contracept (a sin in itself) and so no children will be affected. But that is simply not true. First, as already noted, promiscuity contributes to the overall undermining of marriage which surely harms children. But more specifically, the fact is that high numbers of fornicators and cohabitors DO conceive and this leads to higher rates of abortion and also single motherhood. It is a blessing if a child not aborted but it remains true that children born out of wedlock are born into less than ideal conditions. God has set forth that the best environment to rear and raise children is stable, faithful, heterosexual marriage. A child is best raised by a father and mother who are consistently present and who give complimentary witness. A father contributes to development in a way a mother cannot. A mother contributes to development in a way that a father cannot. To engage in risky and sinful behavior that places children at greater risk of abortion or incomplete homes is an injustice. We don’t often think of sexual sins as sins of injustice but they are. In the end, it is the children who pay. You will no doubt wish to add to the list or perhaps nuance what I have said. But in the end I think we have to be firm and clear about the wrongful nature of this sort of sexual misbehavior. I will say that the Church was not as clear as she should have been with me when I was growing up in the 1960s and 70s. But I can assure you the fallen angel who is the devil, and our fallen culture ARE clear as to what they think. It is tragic to think that almost half of the Children born in this country are born into situations that are far from ideal. It is even more tragic that this does not have to be. Many think we really can’t turn this thing around. I disagree. The example of a concerted effort at eliminating smoking has had significant impact. If we come together and agree and are firm and clear I am sure we can make a difference. Even just taking the PDF document on Scriptural teaching I have produced above and sharing it with you teenagers can help. But we need to do more and better. Things are at a critical stage just now. For further data and research read here: Child Trends Data (NB Though the report written in 2001 indicates out of wedlock births had leveled off, that assertion has been superceded by the more recent data which shows it has now again spiked). This video depicts an important parental connection in helping young people develop a proper notion of sexuality and how it relates to marriage:

We seem to be starting a tradition of sprints coinciding with social movements. Last year, the sprint venue in Vienna was squatted by students protesting university fee reforms. This time we were caught in the French pension reform strikes, which knocked out one of our would-be participants and made another lose a day. The sprint was small but productive. We had four people attending, Florent Becker (also local organizer), Guillaume Hoffmann, Eric Kow and Reinier Lamers. Talks and discussions The day before the sprint, Eric gave a talk to undergraduate and masters students on Free and Open Source Software Projects, in particular the principles that we try to apply within the Darcs team. Code quality - darcs code is a gem buried in big pile of muck. We've been making progress tidying the mess and moving towards a clean, well thought out library... but we still have a long way to go. Portability - darcs relies on GHC, which takes a long time to build and which simply does not support certain niche platforms. Usability - for all its power, Darcs has a reputation among its fans for being exceptionally easy to use. While we can be proud of our friendly UI and simple mental model, we need to also recognise the parts of Darcs that make life difficult. Here are three areas we should explore: Patch annotations would allow Darcs to start tracking a repository history while still allowing for patch reordering. People should be able to ask questions like "who signed off on this patch?", and "when was in pulled into the current repository?" Short version identifiers would make it easier for users to communicate with each other - "Bob, could you please fetch version 83dc9fa3?" Network effects - Darcs is most useful when many other people are also using Darcs or something compatible. Unlike Git/Hg/Bzr, Darcs lacks bridges with the other DVCSes. The other three can more or less talk to each other because they have similar models. Darcs is a bit different, so making good bridges can be tricky. The Darcs community lacks services that facilitate collaboration to the same extent that Github does. We need patch-tag, darcsden and friends to get better still! One piece of low-hanging fruit to pluck is the ability to host Darcs repositories on servers that lack a Darcs binary. How do we push patches over SFTP without the luxury of a remote Darcs binary? We continued the discussion from the darcs-users mailing list on machine-readable formats for the Darcs data and command output. This discussion was tricky because it involves many different parts of Darcs and involves juggling some conflicting goals: - Standards compliance: preference for well-documented and understood standards. - Familiarity: attention to de-facto standards used in the revision control community. - Conceptual integrity: all Darcs formats should work the same way - Extensibility: ability accomodate future requirements - Easy parsing: people should be able to whip up quick little scripts to slice and dice Darcs output - Agnosticism: need a good story for arbitrary bytes because Darcs is fairly agnostic to the content of text files - Transparency: no complicated escaping mechanisms as these tend to fall in rare corner cases and would be easy to get wrong. - Conservatism: the less we change Darcs, the better Reinier had the idea of bringing this discussion to a whiteboard -- this is why you need hackathons! -- which allowed us to take a more global view of the problem. After much discussion, we reached a conclusion was that we should converge on 4 formats: Unified diff format [SAME], (familiarity, conservatism) there's no reason to move away from diff/patch style output for low-level diffs. High level patch format [SAME] (conceptual integrity, agnosticism, conservatism) - this is a high-level representation of patches which is unique to Darcs. For instance, it can describe file renames and word replacement. We plan to continue using this format whenever we need to represent high-level patch contents. Line-separated annotate format [NEW] (easy parsing, agnosticism, transparency) - We will deprecate the annotate --xml format, and shift to a line-based one. If there are community standards that exist we'll try to use them as much as possible. Hashed context file format [NEW] (agnosticism, transparency, conceptual integrity) - we will deprecate the changes --xml format and converge to an extended version of the context file format. New features: - file contents hashes (issue1550) - format version information - is-context-file flag (need deps to be safe to use) Note that where forced to choose, we have essentially sacrificed the otherwise worthy goals of standards compliance and extensibility. Darcs 2.5 is almost here! The release was delayed for quality control reasons, but after many betas and bug fixes, we think we're ready to ship. Reinier put the finishing touches on our first release candidate. Eric made a handful of improvements to the issue tracking infrastructure, improving integration with our darcs repository and darcswatch. Eric and Reinier polished off some user interface work: - Removed a confirmation prompt asking you if you really want to record your patch when you choose to edit long comment but make no changes. (undo beats confirmation). - Testing UI regression fix by Adolfo: Darcs was overzealous in warning of about unreachable cache entries. - Improved checking of commands that work on file paths Pristine cache handling Guillaume documented much of Darcs pristine cache handling, fixing a darcs repair bug along the way. He - Studied the problem of garbage collecting the Darcs pristine cache http://wiki.darcs.net/Using/GrowingPristineProblem - Fixed darcs repair when pristine cache is missing. - Designed some improvements to darcs get handling of missing pristine cache items. http://bugs.darcs.net/issue1976 No working directory: towards passive repositories We want to make it as easy for people to use and host Darcs repositories. In particular, we think it would be great if you could host a Darcs repository on any server, without caring if Darcs is installed there or not. While it is already possible to fetch Darcs repositories from such server, what we now need is the ability to push to such repositories without a remote copy of Darcs. Working in this direction, Florent implemented a long-requested feature for repositories without a working directory. This is useful for repositories which are only meant to be used for pushing/pulling, where the notion of a working directory is superfluous and makes some Darcs operations harder to implement. Faster annotate (we'll get there!) Unfortunately, Benedikt could not join us for the sprint as travel from Zurich to Orleans was disrupted by strikes. Luckily, he was still able to participate over IRC. He ported over his work on the "patch index" optimisation to the latest version of the Darcs code in progress (that's a 6 month leap!) and will continue by exposing the patch index to Darcs commands. Guillaume (right) with a question for Reinier Our Darcs Weekly News editor attended his first sprint 6 months ago in Zurich, starting work on some ProbablyEasy bugs. It was great to see him again and very encouraging to see how much deeper he was getting into Darcs internals. Let's hear it from Guillaume: I arrived at the sprint with this bug report in mind, written by a NetBSD user who could not build Darcs on his system. I wondered how easy could it be to write a minimal Darcs client that could only fetch a working copy from a Darcs repository, in a programming language more common than Haskell (Python comes to mind). Thus began my discovery of the hashed repository format. The most susprising thing I discovered was the lack of documentation: currently someone who wants to write a Darcs client can only count on the existing source code. So I started to document what I understood by asking the other sprinters and looking at the code. I also documented the Growing Pristine Problem as it was cited as being a low point of the hashed repository format with regards to the old-fashioned format. After understanding why this phenomenon happens, I believe that this is an unavoidable issue when one wants to avoid breakage during simultaneous pushing and getting the same repository. Also, it becomes a problem only in really big repositories. However, some parts of Darcs could be improved. Darcs could do a better work to handle its pristine.hashed files. For instance, as of now, deleting the pristine.hashed directory leads to an almost dead-end situation since "darcs repair" refuses to work unless a dummy pristine.hashed directory is created. I sent a test case and a fix for this problem. Missing pristine files are generally not handled graciously by Darcs while their presence is not necessary (albeit very important for speed). As of now, "darcs get" refuses to work when a pristine file is missing, and this has already bit me in the past. I proposed an enhancement of this behaviour. Other local commands that use the pristine files fail if one file is missing, but never tell the user to run darcs repair. I will probably work on these two proposals soon. The aim is to make Darcs as robust as possible with its current format, and above all to prevent users from being exposed to unhelpful error messages. Thanks to Florent and to the rest of the laboratoire LIFO for hosting the Darcs team this weekend! Hosting sprints is an excellent way to support and to interact with the Darcs community.The obligatory Jeanne D'arc statue photo A special shout-out also goes to Yannick Parmentier, a LIFO researcher (and coincidentally Eric's former office mate) who very kindly visited us to take photos and shuttle us back and forth between Orleans and the lab. Merci, Yannick!

I love the quiet morning hour before dawn. My first Zazen experience in Japan, almost 15 years ago, was joining the “Gyouten Zazenkai” (暁天座禅会, Dawn Zazen Gathering) at Engakuji-Temple in Kita-Kamakura. After one hour train-ride from Tokyo entering the Butsu-den (仏殿) in the surrounding nature’s cold air at dark night, and leaving the hall in early dawn after two rounds of Zazen and Sutra chanting is a very unique experience. I remember one special morning in December, when after Zazen everything was covered with snow, and the whole Engakuji was reflecting the early morning light in a beautiful soft white. Instead of immediately leaving the Temple after Zazen, I traded in a severe scolding from the Monk at the gate for some time wandering around in the silent beauty. Still today, I enjoy doing Zazen at dawn whenever possible. Starting a busy day with an hour of silent activity means great freedom, and it makes an enormous difference compared to rushing out of bed last second just to reach office in time.

We at PARSS hope you are enjoying the summer, and at the same time getting prepared for the new school year. As you know, the budget is past due for more than three weeks. The Senate has been called back, and the House is being called back tomorrow to, we hope, get some movement on passing a budget.The earlier attempts will not help rural public schools. The only budget that will substantially help rural schools is the budget proposed by Governor Wolf and some of that help wouldn’t come quickly. The formula is very important, and we should all support its implementation, but the real issue is the amount of money that is provided, and that is the point of real resistance from legislators, especially leadership of the Republican caucuses. As part of your preparation for next school year we would also ask you to, if possible, meet with one or more of your legislators, since they are home most of the time. Listed below are some of the talking points for you to use in your discussion with your legislator/s: We would like to thank you in advance for taking time out of your busy schedules in meeting with your local legislators. We can assure you that your individual meetings can and will make a difference. Please feel free to contact us with any updates that you may hear, and of course we will keep you up-to-date, as well. If you have any questions please contact us. This message is cosigned by Joe Bard and Ed Albert. Ed is the former superintendent of Tulpehocken SD in Berks Co. On July 1 he began a new role as PARSS' Assistant Executive Director.

We have received a request from Saint Petersburg by the editor of Russian magazine Diletant, we were asked to send illustrations for an article published in the issue coming out in July. This July issue is focused on nomadic peoples from the Steppe. One of the articles is about Cumans, and they asked for a couple of illustrations from our work done in 2019 for the Cuman Museum at Szank. The images were created by our colleague Balázs Szakonyi along the guidance of military historian Zoltán Boldog. The images appeared in colour on a double page in the high-quality history magazine.

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – For a skinny kid from Warsaw, NC, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University made a major difference. “It’s rare that you can attend an institution that really helps you dig deep into your identity,” Jeff Frederick, RTI International’s senior vice president for global human resources business partnering, says in the accompanying video. “And attending a historically black college and university hailing from a small town like Warsaw, NC, really helped me to understand who I was as an individual, and really helped me to understand who I was as a black male in society, so I take that seriously,” Frederick says. “Knowing who you are is pivotal.” One of Frederick’s pivotal moments at N.C. A&T came with a business case in an international studies class. His instructor overheard Frederick say he never expected to handle an international business case once he had a job. “And he said, ‘I don’t ever want to hear you say that again, because that’s why you’re here. We’re preparing you to do just that, and don’t sell yourself short.’ “It caused me to focus on the work and think about it differently,” Frederick says. “It really caused me to think about working globally and opening my horizons and not limiting myself.” Frederick goes on to share work experiences in Asia, Africa and Europe. “If you were to ask anyone from Warsaw, NC, ‘Did you ever expect this little skinny kid from Route 1, 19B, on Highway 24…,’ no one could have ever told you that I would be doing that kind of work or be in those places,” he says.

By Eric Johnson CHAPEL HILL (July 13, 2022) – “Hard history is not hopeless history,” said Christie Norris, borrowing a quote from historian Hasan Kwame Jeffries as she spoke to a group of teachers in Chapel Hill last month. “You can teach challenging things in a way that inspires your students.” It’s a message educators are eager to hear as battles over curriculum and library books and attitudes about American history have put a spotlight on classrooms across the country. Norris, the longtime director of the Carolina K12 program at UNC Chapel Hill, has made a specialty of helping teachers navigate contentious topics in thoughtful, welcoming ways. “When we tell the story of this crazy time, teachers will be at the front and center,” Norris told the educators who attended the annual William Friday Teachers Retreat. “You bring joy, love, and knowledge in the midst of chaos.” Supported by the North Caroliniana Society and Carolina Public Humanities, the Carolina K12 program invites teachers from across the state to meet with authors, professors, historians and researchers to brainstorm new approaches to our state’s fascinating and often overlooked history. “We try to honor teachers as the scholars and professionals they are,” Norris said. “They’re asked to cover some really difficult topics at a time when there’s a lot of intense scrutiny, and we want to make sure they have the support to do that well.” Over three days, teachers from every region of the state heard from musicians and performers on how to use art in the classroom; listened as author and cultural historian Larae Umfleet offered ideas for teaching the 1898 Wilmington coup with sensitivity and nuance; and talked with author and UNC Asheville professor Wiley Cash about how students should take a deeper look at their own communities. “This place you’re from is worthy of literature,” said Cash, whose bestselling novels are rooted in North Carolina. “This place you’re from is worth writing about.” Cash’s latest book is a fictional retelling of the 1929 Loray Mill Strike in Gastonia, an event that drew global headlines at the time but largely faded from North Carolina’s history. “One of the most significant labor movements in American history happened in my hometown, and I didn’t learn about in school, and I didn’t learn about it in either of the North Carolina universities I attended,” Cash explained. “Sometimes the stories in our own backyard are the easiest ones to overlook.” Educator and juvenile justice advocate Michael Williams ran through a litany of brilliant, rarely taught figures in North Carolina history: People like James Frances Shober, the first Black physician with a medical degree to practice in the state, and William Benjamin Gould, a man born into slavery in Granville County who went on to write one of the most valuable diaries of the Civil War during his service in the U.S. Navy. “The purpose of a well-rounded education is not to make anyone feel bad,” Williams said. “It’s about making sure students get what they need, that they can see themselves in the history of their state.” It’s also about helping students cope with the challenges of the present, where they’re going to encounter difficult topics no matter how much we try to shield them. On the first night of the retreat, I sat next to a high school teacher from Robeson County who told me she was planning a classroom debate about abortion. I asked if she was nervous to take on such a fraught, politically charged topic. “It’s my students who want to talk about it,” she said. “They hear it on the news, they hear their families argue about it, and many of them have strong feelings about it. They want to understand it better.” Of course they do. The idea that we’re going to keep uncomfortable subjects out of the classroom ignores the reality that our students live in the world, where uncomfortable topics come up all the time. There’s no curriculum in North Carolina aiming to introduce students to a particular view of abortion; it certainly wasn’t a topic at the UNC retreat. But those Robeson County kids see billboards from advocacy groups, witness protests in their communities, catch bits of news and online outrage from politicians. Of course they’re going to ask their teachers to help make sense of it all, and we should want educators to have the tools and the confidence to answer that call. “You know and your students know when you’re telling the truth,” said Bill Ferris, a longtime historian at Carolina and a giant in the field of Southern culture. “You have to follow your heart, especially in moments of tension.” Ferris told the group about growing up in the segregated South, asking pointed questions of his teachers and parents and getting few good answers. Schools have always been battlegrounds, he said, because young people are always questioning the world around them. “You hold the keys to the future,” Ferris told the teachers. “It all starts in the classroom.” Eric Johnson is a writer in Chapel Hill. He works for the UNC System and is a member of the Carolina Public Humanities advisory board.

(click on images for full view) Last week when I posted about the Lumen Bearing Company, Greg Witul commented on the post asking where I got the old picture of the factory. I couldn’t remember exactly and then pulled out the book I thought it was from. It came from a 50th anniversary book for Saint Stanislaus Church. While flipping through the book, a photo of 897 Broadway caught my eye. I scanned the photo tonight and pulled some pictures from Google Maps of what is there now. When I started looking at the photos, I noticed right away that the original building is still there. It is hidden behind what was built out of it. If you examine the pictures closely, you can see it. You will also notice that part of the building’s white facade is still visible. I don’t know how much else of it remains, but it was cool to make this discovery. The 1923 photo shows the Broadway Bakery. Truly a great looking building. UPDATE from Andy Golebiowski in comments: Description from the Intensive Level Historic Resources Survey: 897 BroadwayDate: 1914 Władysław H. Zawadzki, Original Use: Commercial Current Use: VacantNR Criterion: C Built as a bakery, store, and dwelling for Władysław Niebieszczanski. Its original richly executed Broadway façade, of brick and white terra cotta with copper bays, was largely effaced when the former bakery was joined to a nondescript, late twentieth century building to the west.

Crestwood Equity Partners LP (NYSE: CEQP) (“Crestwood”) announced today the closing of the previously announced Delaware Basin acquisitions of Sendero Midstream Partners LP (“Sendero”) for approximately $600 million in cash and First Reserve’s 50% interest in Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC (“CPJV”) for 11.3 million Crestwood common units. Additionally, on July 1, 2022, Crestwood completed the previously announced divestiture of its Barnett Shale assets for $275 million in cash. As a result of these strategic transactions, Crestwood has high graded its asset portfolio in the prolific Delaware Basin and has significantly expanded its operational footprint in Eddy County, New Mexico, one of the most active counties in the contiguous United States. Based on current producer activity levels, a planned integration of the Sendero and CPJV gathering systems, immediate operating, customer, and project synergies, and 550 MMcf/d of total processing capacity, Crestwood expects the Delaware Basin to become its second largest cash flow contributor, representing approximately 20% of total cash flow in 2023. Changes to the Board of Directors On July 1, 2022, Oasis Petroleum Inc. (“Oasis”), Crestwood’s largest customer in the Williston Basin, completed its merger with Whiting Petroleum Corporation (“Whiting”), forming Chord Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: CHRD) (“Chord”). The formation of Chord creates a financially strong unconventional U.S. oil producer focused on development in the Williston Basin. Following the formation of Chord, Oasis has transferred to Chord its Crestwood common units and its contractual right to nominate two members to the Board of Directors of Crestwood’s general partner, Crestwood Equity GP, LLC (the “Board of Directors”), which right was received by Oasis as part of Crestwood’s acquisition of Oasis Midstream Partners LP and is subject to meeting on-going ownership thresholds. As a result, the previously appointed members by Oasis to the Board of Directors, Mr. John Lancaster, Jr. and Mr. John Jacobi, resigned effective July 1, 2022. Chord has nominated Ms. Samantha F. Holroyd and Mr. Paul J. Korus to serve as their replacements. Crestwood expects that Ms. Holroyd and Mr. Korus will be formally appointed to the Board of Directors in the coming weeks. Robert G. Phillips, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Crestwood, commented, “Crestwood would like to congratulate Oasis and Whiting on the successful formation of Chord. The combination creates a leading Williston Basin upstream company that shares our sustainability values focused on safety, operational and environmental integrity, and carbon management. I also want to thank Mr. Lancaster and Mr. Jacobi for their service and counsel and look forward to welcoming Ms. Holroyd and Mr. Korus to the Board of Directors and benefitting from their extensive industry experience and knowledge. The integration of Oasis Midstream, which began on February 1, 2022, is going well and the completion of the Chord merger is another important step in building a strategic alignment between Crestwood and Chord based on exceptional customer service as Chord develops the highly economic Williston Basin.” Ms. Samantha F. Holroyd is a board member of Chord and was previously a member of the board of Oasis. She currently serves on Chord’s Audit Committee and Environmental, Social & Governance Committee. Ms. Holroyd currently serves on the board of Amerant Bancorp Inc., and she previously served on the board of Gulfport Energy Corporation from 2020–2021. Ms. Holroyd has a long history in the energy industry in the areas of reservoir engineering, technical analysis, financial and advisory services. She holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Petroleum Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines, holds FINRA Certifications (Series 79 and Series 63), and is a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Texas. She is also a Certified Corporate Director by the National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD) and is NACD Certified in ESG. Mr. Paul J. Korus is a board member of Chord and was formerly a director of Whiting. Mr. Korus serves on Chord’s Audit Committee and Environmental, Social and Governance Committee. Mr. Korus has more than 35 years of oil and gas industry experience and brings strong financial and accounting expertise. He began his oil and gas career in 1982 with Apache Corporation, where he held positions in corporate planning, information technology and investor relations. From 1999 to 2002, Mr. Korus was the Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer of Key Production Company. He held the same positions with Cimarex Energy Co. from 2002 until his retirement in 2015. Mr. Korus holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics and a Master of Science degree in Accounting from the University of North Dakota. Following these changes, the Crestwood Board of Directors will consist of ten members of which 90% are independent, 40% are female representatives, and 50% have three or less years of tenure.

Agility – Both as a human and a werewolf, Bigby is largely fast (able to keep up with Georgie Porgie/Vivian’s car in the latter case) and capable of jumping large distances over rooftops. His speed may also be attributed to an ability to see things in slow-motion at times as. This is shown at the end of “Faith” when he had to chose who to stop between Tweedle Dee and Woodsman, he would have in reality only had a split second to decide but seemed to perceive the situation for approximate ten seconds . Near-Immortality – Being a very-well talked about Fable, Bigby is nearly-immortal and has a very high resistance to pain. This is most well showcased at the end of A Crooked Mile, when he is shot over 40 times by the Tweedles and is left hardly incapacitated by the shots. Despite claiming to be a master of The Undead, she’s only as powerful as the other heroes, and her supposed minions don’t listen to her. A support conversation with Zhu implies she might never have been evil at all, and that her threats to the party were all talk. Micolash, head of the School of Mensis, an offshoot of the work that began at Byrgenwerth with a greater focus on the Arcane, who, as Gehrman’s opposite number, should by all means pose as the Big Bad in the game… - We had come consecutive wins, but it amounted to small winnings in the end. - The writing here is the start of a conversation, and reality blurred values your contributions to that conversation. - The Big Bads are also the Overarching Villain if they influence the story in some way as a major recurring villain for the Myth Arc. - Then the fifth installment is released, and what do we get? - Smash your way up the food chain as you evolve into the ultimate Little Big Snake. Our reviewer, Sam Pape, deserves a medal for spending almost 14 hours on this Middle-earth adventure and somehow surviving to tell the tale. Even if you can overlook its overall unpolished design, rampant game-breaking bugs, and graphics that make it look like a PS3-era game, Gollum still doesn’t have much going for it. Uninspired stealth sections, repetitive missions, and no-win situations only add to its woes. United Independent Entertainment GmbHAs on brand with UIEG’s published games,Airport Simulator 2014isn’t worth the time and money. With no tutorial, repetitive gameplay with no payoff, and a lot of waiting around, you’d probably find more fun in an actual airport. 22cansWe’ll preface this by telling you to just go play the mobile version ofGodus Wars. Check Out More From Gouda Games! – casino mad mad monkey Moving into a more modern area to take advantage of advanced surveillance and the topic casino mad mad monkey of cryptocurrency, the hype behind the co-op shooter quickly faded away due to an extremely messy and poor launch for Payday 3. With an always-online requirement even when playing solo, the servers couldn’t handle the rush of new players, causing countless errors, performance, and technical issues. Things got so bad that Starbreeze came out and apologized for how rough things had gotten, ultimately resolving the majority of server issues a week and a half after launch. In The Legend of Korra, there is Kuvira, who starts out as a harmless background character in Season 3 who helps save Korra’s father in the finale. Big Bad Toy Store Home This is the tip of the Titanic sized iceberg of issues with this game. Linden LabWhile no longer available for sale, it’s still important to put on this list. WhetherPatternsfailed because of unattainable goals, or just because of poor developers, remains to be seen. IGN speculated thatPatternscould be the newMinecraft, but just after release the developers stopped supporting the game. At least they had the courtesy to remove the game from Steam rather than leaving it up for profit only. The Big Bad Wolf is also regularly featured in special events and promotional campaigns featuring the Disney Villains franchise. Even just within the critics blurbs on the Metacritic page for 2003 original Xbox game Pulse Racer, three different outlets proclaim the game to be among the worst games of all time for the system. That’s saying something, because the Xbox was also home to Kabuki Warriors. Graphics aren’t everything, but gameplay is, and Terrawars falls on its face there, too. That it was built on the engine that powered the excellent No One Lives Forever 2 but manages to play even worse than it looks is both an insult to N.O.L.A. and FPS games in general. Tecmo was an early pioneer of fast-paced sports games that were just enough like their originals sport to satisfy purists but were fun and light enough for anyone to play. Compounding things was the fact that Embracer Group came out in November to confirm that Payday 3 sales failed to meet expectations, putting the future of the series in doubt. As players discovered, the Switch version of Mortal Kombat 1 suffered from severe visual and technical issues. Glaring issues included a major lack of detail with character models as well as the stages themselves, removing all the lifelike animations and beautiful visual details present on the other platforms. Screenshots captured by players showcased characters with bulging eyes, textureless models, odd visual issues like floating heads, glitches that caused broken animations, and load screens that were shockingly long. But there’s also the mercenary known only as “The Man”, working as The Heavy for Zona. Season 4 has Malcolm Dreyfuss, who engineers every Monster of the Week as part of a bigger plan to first become immortal, and then Take Over the World. The season finale gives us a Big Bad Ensemble of Hiram Lodge, Malachi, Penny Peabody, Penelope Blossom, Claudius Blossom, and Sheriff Manetta, all of whom are conspiring together. This definitely puts Conrad right back into the role of Big Bad, pushing out even the horrified Victoria. As of Season 4, Victoria splits the role with Malcolm Black for the first half. Статистика Игры Big Bad Wolf От Quickspin The two refuse to cooperate when asked about the Woodsman’s whereabouts, claiming they have not seen him, only for him to emerge from the restroom. While shocked at Bigby’s presence, the Woodsman does not run, but sullenly tells Bigby that he is through fighting. Bigby vaguely asks about the murder and the Woodsman misunderstands, confessing that he had originally planned to rob Red Riding Hood and her grandmother before his and Wolf’s famous confrontation. When told about Faith’s death, the Woodsman panics and pleads innocence, though Bigby had his doubts. Bigby wakes later to the sound of someone knocking on the door. Assuming it is the girl, he instead finds Snow White, who urgently tells Bigby to follow her outside.

Message to Pastors I am very excited as I feel God is moving to set us free, free to preach, free from oppression, free to be full citizens. Church history proves that revival follows the preaching of freedom. As pastors in Canada we are second class citizens. Pastors are oppressed by the government and threatened with severe penalties if we participate in democracy. Sure we can vote but we cannot do anything else. Pastors must have equal rights in democracy, We should not be limited, restricted or intimidated. The Canadian government scares pastors with CRA regulations that state if a pastor’s ministry “carries out partisan political activities, it can be subject to compliance action, including suspension of its tax-receipting privileges, or revocation of its charitable registration.” A pastor’s democratic right is severely restricted. A pastor cannot: - Explicitly connect views to any candidate or political party. - Distribute literature or voter guides or publicly endorse a candidate by: - Giving money - Allowing a candidate or political party to use a church equipment, facilities. - Volunteer time - Make public statements. - Suggest that people should vote for a particular candidate or party. - Attend a political fundraiser as a representative of a church. - Use a website to post or hyperlink to statements made by a third party. - Publish or otherwise disclose voting records. - Post signs. The result is that we are afraid to fully express ourselves and rally our people when injustices occur. Our government passes law after law damaging the people of Canada and we are muzzled by their threats. This oppression began with the Johnson Amendment in 1954 and Canada quickly followed suit. The result is that the church reduced from 65% of the population to 25% in America and 9% in Canada. The newly elected government; the President, Senate and Congress, is planning to rescind the Johnston Amendment and free pastors to preach freedom from all forms of oppression, spiritual, financial and governmental. In Canada we must do the same and fight for freedom, equality and democracy. Dr. Charles McVety Canada Christian College and School of Graduate Theological Studies

Anya Schiffrin on Australia’s News Media Bargaining Code In 2021, Australia broke new ground by introducing the News Media Bargaining Code, forcing Google and Facebook to pay for the news they disseminate, Anya Schiffrin writes. Under the Code, news outlets have made deals with Facebook and Google. According to Rod Sims, the former chair of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission who initiated the Code, these deals have injected over $140 million (AUD 200 million) into journalism each year. Anya Schiffrin reports on widespread enthusiasm from journalists, journalism professors and government officials “for the monetary boost to Australian journalism.” She also writes about some of the problems such as Facebook’s refusal to negotiate with some news organizations. The current bargaining also lacks transparency, and Google and Facebook made outlets sign nondisclosure agreements.

The feeling is very positive all around us. We are extremely grateful to our truly loyal volunteers who have continuously sacrificed their baggage allowances to accommodate deliveries of large boxes containing reading glasses sent by Connect Indonesia, The Charity to our senior weavers in Indonesia. Our true angels, Dorothy Dina Ferary, an Indonesian PhD student at UCL London and Mrs Rose Cano a mum and a housewife who is based in London, have managed to carry 474 pairs of glasses between them from London to Indonesia, last June. As quoted by Margaret Mead: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has” Indeed, we believe very strongly that a small group of people in the same dream, vision, mission and hope can make a huge contribution to creating change in our world, and we believe that we are working very hard to be part of that change. Dorothy and Rose, thank you both so much for your full support, without your support the mission of Connect Indonesia, the Charity will never be achieved. You are both truly amazing, just like all of our other angels (volunteers) who have supported us throughout our work. As always, our special thank you to Olvira Ballo, our Project Manager in Kupang, Indonesia, who has worked tirelessly and meticulously, counting our glasses and recorded them in our stock database.

extraoperators: Extra Binary Relational and Logical Operators Speed up common tasks, particularly logical or relational comparisons and routine follow up tasks such as finding the indices and subsetting. Inspired by mathematics, where something like: 3 < x < 6 is a standard, elegant and clear way to assert that x is both greater than 3 and less than 6 (see for example <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_operator>), a chaining operator is implemented. The chaining operator, %c%, allows multiple relational operations to be used in quotes on the right hand side for the same object, on the left hand side. The %e% operator allows something like set-builder notation (see for example <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-builder_notation>) to be used on the right hand side. All operators have built in prefixes defined for all, subset, and which to reduce the amount of code needed for common tasks, such as return those values that are true. Please use the canonical form to link to this page.

An advanced robot measuring 13″ high that can do over 75 acrobatic moves like somersaults, backflips, and air guitar. The robot has 17 servo motors, a gyro sensor, and accelerometer to stay balanced while it does quick human-like movements.

It can go for 40 minutes on a 3 hour charge of it’s built-in battery. There’s a USB cable and Windows software to program additional moves. Pretty cool, if you’re looking for an advanced robot toy this year and don’t have the time or ability to build one yourself from a kit, this is a solid option.

What questions for a first date will tell you what you want to know about a new man you’re just meeting? Or is there a better approach? What’s Your Strategy to Decide If a Guy Meets Your Criteria? Do you ask the tough questions on a first date? What questions for a first date should you ask? Maybe you spring them on a new guy during that first phone call? There are several reasons why that’s NOT the best way to get to know a new man or determine if he could be a real prospect for love. Women ask me all the time what kind of questions to ask on a first date and what they can do to qualify a guy quickly. No one wants to waste time. That’s understandable. The trouble is, at the very same time, he’s summing you up too. He’s trying to figure out if you’re a nice person, fun to spend time with, or likely to nag him to death down the road. Keeping in mind that he’s judging you while you are judging him, you’ve got to take a different approach than the typical direct questioning technique. I encourage you to stop focusing on what questions for a first date you should prepare. What can you do? I suggest something completely different which I’ll explain in a minute. Why Do Women Try So Hard? Over the past 20 years as a love and dating coach, I’ve noticed that women often try too hard to figure out who a man is and if he could be “The One” from the moment they connect. While it’s great to be focused and know exactly what you are looking for in a partner, there just aren’t any perfect questions to get the answers you really need. In addition, you don’t need to go overboard trying to please or impress a new guy. That doesn’t work either. Instead, let me make this process a whole lot easier for you. Just try to have a good time and be yourself. The Tough Questions Kill Your Appeal Going on a fact-finding mission to learn why he got divorced, what his ex is like, and if he’s looking for a new wife will not create an atmosphere of easy-going, light-hearted fun. Rather than making a great impression on him, you risk looking like an intense woman who doesn’t know how to relax or have a good time. That alone could easily disqualify you from a man’s perspective. Yikes! Will a Man Answer Your Direct Questions Honestly? Think about it. Why would a man even answer these pointed and invasive questions? If the guy is a narcissist and his wife dumped him, is he going to admit to that? If he cheated on his ex, will he admit that? No! How a guy answers your probing inquiries is NEVER going to tell you what you want to know because he can LIE. He could also be evasive, change the subject, or laugh. Don’t Bring Up His Ex Let’s say you happen to be out with a quality guy. A really good man who might have true potential as your future mate. That’s an exciting opportunity that you don’t want to spoil! Then you bring up his ex and it’s almost like she’s now on the date with you. And his mood is shot to hell. Don’t do it! So, if it’s not about pressing him for answers to the perfect questions for a first date, how can you tell if he’s the right guy? Watch What He Does, Not What He Says A man’s actions tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about his potential as your romantic partner. To see if a new guy could be a match, make a list of the qualities you want, such as fun, considerate, intelligent, family-oriented, social, etc. Next, make a short list of your deal-breakers like addictions, rude, cheap, thoughtless, unreliable, etc. Then go out and relax! Now your job on a first date is to see if the conversation flows and how you feel in his company. Do you get his sense of humor and does he even have one? Forget all about those questions for a first date. Notice his behavior. Is he on time, a good tipper, nice to the waitstaff, and well-groomed? Watch for him to demonstrate who he is, rather than TELL you. Most importantly, see if he calls to ask you out again. The Fun and Easy Way to Get to Know a New Man When you stop trying to qualify a guy on a first date, you can sit back, relax, and be yourself. That’s how you will shine and be your most attractive! This is SO MUCH EASIER, isn’t it? And a heck of a lot more fun. You can relax, enjoy yourself, meet some new guys, and see what happens. Stop trying so hard and let those men weed themselves out. A man will qualify himself if you let him. Then you can stop working so darn hard at dating and just have fun. That’s my best dating advice which worked for me and for so many of my happy clients! Want more simple dating advice? Get a copy of His Mixed Signals Are So Confusing so you can get clear and alleviate a lo

Social media is a very different place to what it was 10 to 15 years ago. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram were places you went to be, well… social. Your friends and family were all there – sharing updates, sharing photos, sharing interesting things from around the web. In this writer’s experience at least, on all my feeds, it’s no longer my friends I see. I see ads, I see brands, I see celebrities and I see posts by people I don’t know. Everyone was on these social apps, so brands, content creators and advertisers flocked to where their audience was. It’s a very different landscape now on those apps than it was just a decade ago. It’s not surprising these social media apps are not where you will find the younger generations these days predominantly. They are on Tik Tok, they are on snapchat (both of which fall into some of the same trappings). There are even apps popping up that try to go back to the old way of things. The aptly named ‘Retro’ is an app for example that operates much like instagram – but strips aways filters and follower counts. Only your friends you have selected can like and comment on your content. Nothing is shared outside your circle. But increasingly, we are seeing the emergence of, instead of social media apps, social discovery apps. They are putting the social aspect back into social apps. A party that everyone is at sounds great in principle – and that is what Twitter, Facebook and Instagram became. But after a while, that’s a lot of people competing for the same air space. We’ve all been to those parties, in the end, you break off into smaller groups, to places you can be heard. That’s what the shift from social media to social discovery is like. People are seeking apps in which they can be heard and valued by other real people, not brands, celebrities and influencers. Somewhere they can actually be social and make friends.

what are dōbooks dōbooks are interactive digital children’s books for all ages, illustrated with beautiful original art and sprinkled with music & sounds. Watercolor pages by renowned artist Vigen Sogomonyan are first rendered, then worked through a separation process enabling us to slightly animate various elements on screen, thereby offering subtle and beautiful movements in selected artwork. Rather than turning pages, navigation is achieved by observing and tapping on sparkling elements. Our dōbook also utilizes a branching system within the story allowing the reader to explore different paths and experience up to three alternate endings. Each adventure contains a puzzle, mini-games and hidden trophies, but what makes a dōbook truly unique is how it engages the reader, bringing interactivity to a whole new level. The dōbook enables each child to create their own identity by entering his or her name in a login screen. This feature has a dual purpose: engaging the child on a responsive level, while allowing the technical capabilities of the iOS platform to include the reader at various points within an adventure. Wrapped in an imaginative, educational environment, children can then help the protagonists with different tasks, while learning interesting and relevant aspects of new and different cultures. A dōbook also offers three reading levels which can be independently turned on or off, or used together, and operate as follows: - Story is the default mode in which children and parents alike can enjoy a casual read by way of charming adventures. - Pop-up words are for the curious little ones; where they can learn words associated with visual elements within the story. - Facts are for older children (and grown-ups too!), allowing everyone to learn educational facts about our beautiful world (we collect and fact check our data against government and accredited sources such as the CIA World Factbook).

Thinking about using Kartra for your online business? Before you sign up, make sure you read our Kartra review below. There are lots of different moving parts in an online business. Gone are the days when you could get away with just a WordPress blog and some basic email marketing software. These days, you need high-converting landing pages, shopping carts, sales funnels, online courses, video marketing…the list goes on and on. As more and more features have come on the market, business’s software arrangements have become increasingly fragmented with different providers for each feature. Trying to manage and integrate all of the different software that goes into running an online business has always been a major headache – until now. Kartra has attempted to make managing online businesses easier with its all-in-one e-commerce platform. This totally integrated, full-featured platform is designed to be an all-in-one solution to create, grow, and manage your online business, eliminating the need to have multiple subscriptions to different products. That all sounds great, right? But how good is Kartra really? Do all the Kartra features really give you everything you need to build your entire business? What about third-party Kartra integrations? And what do Kartra reviews from real customers (including myself) say about the digital marketing platform? This Kartra review will assess each feature in their offering and determine whether the ‘whole package’ approach holds up. To quickly jump to each section click the links below. We’ve fully updated this review for 2023 after over 4 years of using Kartra so that you have all the latest info on new Kartra features, pricing, performance, and more. If you have already decided to buy Kartra, you can try it free for 14 days right now. Let’s talk about Kartra Vs Builderall, but before.. Kartra pricing and plans are essentially based around the size of your contact lists – the bigger they are and the more emails you send the bigger the price. In our view, if you are a beginner start off with the Starter pack at $119 a month and work your way up. It’s the perfect plan for small business owners and new entrepreneurs. There’s no point in getting a bigger plan until you nearing 2,500 contacts or emailing close to the threshold of 15,000. Likely you will reach this email threshold first, and then you can upgrade to a higher-tier plan for more Kartra features. The only exceptions to starting off on the bigger plans are of course if you already have an established contact list. Or you are offering more than 20 products from the beginning of your business. Check out our Kartra pricing page for a more in-depth look at their pricing structure. Ready Built Campaigns/Sales Funnels Kartra has start to finish internet marketing campaigns in place and they are designed by Frank Kern – a man who has brought in a million in a day from online marketing campaigns. Essentially you get spoon fed a marketing system designed by one of the leaders in the field. The most work you do in these campaigns is input your product name, and preferred pricing. You can also create your own campaigns if you think they can rival Frank Kerns! Kartra use a drag and drop sequence builder which can allow you to automate email sequences and add customers to subscription lists in a personal way which helps increase conversions. Taking more control of your sales funnels content will happen naturally as you gain experience but the Kartra templates a great base to start from if you are new to online marketing and sales funnel builders. In 2023, Kartra also launched a couple of new sales funnel features – Funnel Mapper and Funnel Simulator. With Funnel Mapper – available in all plans – you can easily create a visual map of your sales funnel with a drag-and-drop tool, letting you get a big picture overview of your funnel so you can understand possible outcomes each step of the way. This lets you structure conversion flows in the most optimal way to reach your desired outcomes. Funnel Simulator is only available in the Silver and Platinum plans, and this feature lets you actually simulate the various steps of your funnel and come with up projections for the impact of every facet of your campaign. This helps you get an idea of if your funnel will perform the way it’s supposed to and is useful for setting some performance metrics to track. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll see Kartra has a ton of potential as a marketing automation platform. Landing Page Builder The ability to create great landing pages is an essential feature for any serious online marketing software provider these days. Landing page builders, specifically drag and drop landing page builders, have been perfected in the industry already by Kartra’s competitors like Clickfunnels. So, how does the Kartra page builder compare? While the manual page builder is decent, we were more interested in the Kartra templates as these have been created by professionals and they have the biggest impact on conversions. The Kartra page builder is as good as anything else on the market with a wide array of gorgeous templates to use. kartra landing page templates Of course, if you fancy building out your own sales pages then you can do so easily as this is a responsive builder and Kartra offer a good mix of instructional videos. If speed to market is your main goal, then I would be going with these templates and making some minor color/wording adjustments depending on your preferences. There are over 500 page and section templates available to choose from, allowing you customize every element, including headlines, paragraphs, images, backgrounds, videos, carousels, buttons, icons, navigation menus, social media sharing buttons, sticky alert bars, popups, and more. It’s a fast and straightforward way to create landing pages. Kartra’s page builder is super easy to use. What you see is what you get, and you can build just about any type of page you can think of – sales landing pages, thank you pages, blog pages, home pages, and more (check out some Kartra website examples for inspiration). Everything is designed to be totally responsive on mobile devices, ensuring your pages look great everywhere. One thing I will point out is that the blogging feature on Kartra isn’t our favorite. It’s just not as smooth or robust as something like WordPress. A/B testing is built into the sales pages too which means the best performing version of your page will appear to your audience once they’re tested. This is an incredibly important feature to have for your sales landing pages in paid ad campaigns. Kartra pages do have some built-in SEO features as well that can be helpful for getting them to rank in Google. All these Kartra pages can connected to your website through a custom domain like; Email campaigns still form the core of most online business to drive sales and awareness, so any successful online business will need an email marketing tool. Kartra recognize this and have put thought into their templated emails formats. Calling it ‘Kartra Mail’ they offer a variety of pre-made email templates that make sure of countdown timers and testimonials to encourage clicks. They are creative and Kartra Mail can also automate your email sequence based on the behavior of your lead. For example, a follow-up email can be sent to remind leads to finish their order if they exit when on the payment page. A pretty robust analytics feature in Kartra Mail can then measure the effectiveness of your email broadcasts. Kartra Mail Set Up In 2023, however, these are features we should expect from any decent email marketing automation software. Their email deliverability rates are decent too which is a relief as many new marketing software platforms have issues in this area. You can also create an email list by manually adding leads or importing your email list from a CSV file. Kartra started provided unlimited emails at the Silver Plan level upwards in May 2020 which has a big impact on affordability for customers. All in all, the email marketing functionality in the Kartra ecosystem is very solid. Kartra Mail Analytics Start Kartra Trial Having quality video content can be very helpful in getting new leads and making sales. We are fans of the video feature here as it’s allows you to edit everything in one place. So Kartra Vs Builderall, important things to know. From a marketing perspective, this feature can add calls to action to any part of your video. Say for example you mention a membership option halfway through your video. You can add an opt-in pop up at this specific time in the video for your audience to sign up. This way you can capture subscribers in the video without sending them to a new window. This is important for conversions, the fewer steps to sign up the better! Kartra Video Stats On the analytics side, they provide a dropout graph showing you when your audience stopped watching your video or those who clicked through to your product page. By using the Katra tagging feature you can then send personalized follow-up emails to advise those dropouts on what they missed or re-target them with a different offer. You can also enjoy features like video chapters to make your videos easier to navigate. All in all, Kartra Video lets you do away with tools like Vimeo for hosting your videos. Kartra Membership Site Like other prominent marketing software platforms, Kartra has included a membership gateway as a feature. It’s perfect for those selling and marketing online courses, premium content, one-on-one coaching, training programs, and other types of membership sites. Kartra membership sites combine sleek design, user-friendliness, robust features, and seamless integration into the Kartra ecosystem. Using a drag and drop builder you can build a secure branded portal where you provide exclusive courses or products to your premium customers. Multiple membership tiers with different price points cater for those of you looking to sell various products. You may have heard of WordPress membership plugins like MemberPress that can do all these things. A basic package for MemberPress currently comes in around $15 a month If a membership site is your sole aim then this could be a better option but if you’re planning to promote it through email marketing and funneling then an all in one package like Kartra will make your life easier. This feature can eliminate the need for tools like Kajabi, Podia, Teachery, or Memberspace as you can easily host your courses and membership content directly in Kartra. Every feature I have mentioned above is monitored and organized into a supplementary analytics page. Performances of key elements like email campaigns, marketing page conversions, and video viewership are captured and displayed so you can see what areas need attention. It’s accurate too! Karta, again like their benchmark competitor, Clickfunnels offer an integrated affiliate management system. Kartra’s affiliate capabilities transform the complexity of managing an affiliate program into a harmonious symphony of automation, flexibility, and data-driven insights. With Kartra, you can confidently orchestrate your affiliate marketing endeavors and watch your business flourish. The most important aspect of affiliate tracking is ensuring affiliates are paid correctly and on time. Any divergence from this and you quickly lose affiliates trust and this affects your brand’s standing. There are no nasty surprises with Kartra’s affiliate management software. Affiliates are paid on time, you can pay them through trusted platforms like Stripe and Paypal and the screening process is self-explanatory. Some noteworthy features of Kartra Affiliate include: Automated Sales and Commission Tracking: Kartra’s affiliate system easily and accurately tracks every sale and commission. It automatically records and updates affiliate-generated sales, ensuring that commissions are accurately attributed. Bulk Affiliate Payments: Imagine being able to effortlessly pay all your affiliates in one go. Kartra makes it happen. It allows you to automatically pay your affiliates in bulk, simplifying the financial aspect of your affiliate program. Flexible Rules and Commissions: Flexibility is key in affiliate marketing, and Kartra understands this well. With Kartra, you have the freedom to define your own rules and commission structures. Whether it’s a percentage-based commission, fixed fee, or tiered rewards, you’re in control. Custom Affiliate Tiers: Not all affiliates are created equal, and Kartra acknowledges that. It enables you to establish custom affiliate tiers, providing incentives and rewards based on performance. This tiered system motivates affiliates to strive for higher levels of success. Affiliate Analytics: In the world of affiliate marketing, data is gold. Kartra equips you with comprehensive affiliate analytics so you can see which affiliates are driving the most conversions, where your marketing efforts are paying off, and where there’s room for improvement. Kartra Affiliates Management A critical part of selling online is presenting a trustworthy checkout or payment page – if it looks unprofessional potential customers will exit without paying and never return! Time to cover Kartra Vs Builderall in depth. That said no decent marketing platform should be providing poor checkout pages and processes in 2023. We’re happy to say Kartra doesn’t fall down on this basic requirement, their checkout system is smooth offering one click sales through Stripe and the pages have a smooth look. You can display multiple payment options too which helps customers find the pricing plan that fits their needs. All the expected basic functions like one-click upsells and custom Thank You pages are also included. This helpdesk feature is not something I have seen with other all in one platforms, and it’s something Kartra users have praised. Competitors usually have an integration built in with outside helpdesk providers like Zendesk. Any feature that eliminates the need for third-party software is very welcome! The helpdesk essentials like a live ticketing system, live chat, and email reply system are all in place and here but I cannot say I have direct experience of using this feature yet. A unique feature within the helpdesk is the customer history page – it can show you every query your customer has had in the past along with every interaction and a history of their sales. I can see some great uses for this feature. For example, one quick glance at your sales volume and you could make sure a quick personalized response is sent to any big spenders! Is Kartra a CRM? This is a common question online and it is a feature that gets lost amongst Kartra’s more prominent offerings.They do have one and it is pretty intuitive. You can read more on it through the link at the start of this paragraph. Kartra Webinars is another great feature that allows you to broadcast webinars to a wide audience. You can create a series of webinars, invite attendees and easily manage each webinar from the Kartra platform. Webinars a great tool for lead generation, establishing yourself as an authority, audience engagement, and even generating revenue (you can make your webinars paid if you like). Kartra Webinars are now available in Silver and Platinum plans. Kartra Customer Support For a relatively new company, Kartra’s interactive customer support is quite good. They have a typical ticket system in place and a growing Q & A section which they hope will cover most customer questions eventually. Turnaround times for tickets raised is approximately 24 hours. Fast growing companies usually struggle to keep up with support demands as staff must be trained up. It seems Kartra are handling this consequence of growth pretty well. Given the breadth of different features, they have their staff are knowledgeable across the board. Maybe others have had different experiences, let me know in the comments. Kartra Review: Final Thoughts If you only see yourself using just one of these features early on, like the sales funnel builder, then you are better off signing up with a more funnel focused platform like Clickfunnels. However, if your business is or will be using multiple features, Kartra’s all-in-one solution will save you a lot of headaches in terms of cost and time in getting multiple software platforms to work well in tandem with each other. Not forgetting the quality of each feature also, especially their campaign templates, membership sites and webinar feature. The free trial period should also iron out any uncertainty but if you are unsure about any features, just ask me your questions below in the message section. Lastly, a quick things worth mentioning: One really cool unique feature that Kartra pages have is called “Behavioral marketing.” This is where you can tag certain leads who visit your page and show or hide specific page elements depending on how they’ve interacted with your business in the past. For example, if a lead is tagged “customer”, you can hide a special offer only for NEW customers. Or, if a lead has been a regular customer for many years, you could show them specific content on your landing pages that is hidden from everyone else. Kartra Pages can be hosted on either your main domain name or a subdomain. Can you build a website with a blog using Kartra Pages? Yes, you can build a normal-looking website with a blog on Kartra Pages. However, the blogging feature is not very good. If you want a blog on your website, it’s recommended you use WordPress for better SEO results. For WordPress hosting, I recommend SiteGround. Click here to get a SiteGround discount if you’re a first-time customer. In fact, even Kartra’s own blog (at the time of writing this) is hosted with WordPress. Kartra can be used effectively for everything else (other than blogging). Kartra Pages do have built-in SEO features. For example, you can edit the SEO meta title and page description. However, for best SEO results, it’s better to create a blog using WordPress and use Kartra only for hosting your sales funnel. Yes, Kartra pages allow you to do basic A / B testing (similar to ClickFunnels split testing feature).

Das Board of Directors von Xerox hat Jeff Jacobson zum CEO der neuen Xerox Corporation berufen. Derzeit ist Jacobson President von Xerox Technology und wird diese Position bis zum Abschluss der Unternehmensaufteilung bekleiden. „Jeff ist eine herausragende Führungspersönlichkeit mit einer außerordentlichen Leidenschaft für unser Unternehmen und unsere Angestellten, tiefgehende Kundenbeziehungen und einer klaren strategischen Vision für die Perspektiven und Möglichkeiten unseres Unternehmens“, sagt Ursula Burns. „Während seiner vierjährigen Tätigkeit bei Xerox hat Jeff Produktivität und Kosteneffizienz signifikant vorangetrieben, ohne den Blick für unser Bekenntnis zu Innovation, Qualität und führende Technologie zu verlieren. Mit seinen bisherigen Erfahrungen als CEO eines börsennotierten Unternehmens, seinem erfolgreichen Werdegang bei Xerox, sind der Vorstand und ich absolut davon überzeugt, dass er sich am besten dafür eignet, Xerox zu leiten.“ Als erfahrener Branchenkenner kam Jacobson 2012 als President Global Graphic Communications Operations zu Xerox und wurde 2014 zum President von Xerox Technology ernannt, wodurch ihm die Verantwortung für die Bereiche Worldwide Strategie, Sales Channel Operations, Marketing, Technical Services und Customer Support, Produktentwicklung, Produktion sowie für den Vertrieb übertragen wurde. Bevor er zu Xerox kam, war Jeff Jacobson President, Chief Executive Officer und Chairman bei Presstek, einem Anbieter digitaler Offsetdruck-Lösungen, wo er das globale Ausbauprogramm vorantrieb. „Ich fühle mich durch die Entscheidung des Vorstands, mir die Leitung eines der legendärsten Unternehmen der Welt zu übertragen, sehr geehrt. Ich bin fest davon überzeugt, dass wir auf Basis von nachhaltigem Managements, Betriebseffizienz und Kundenorientierung eine erfolgreiche Zukunft für Xerox aufbauen werden. Als unabhängiges Unternehmen mit dem Vorteil der strategisch konsequent durchgeführten Transformation, werden wir die Vielzahl an Business-Chancen für uns nutzen, um so unser Kerngeschäft weiter zu stärken und Wachstumsmöglichkeiten konsequent zu verfolgen“, sagte Jacobson. „Jeff ist definitiv die richtige Führungsperson für Xerox Document Technology“, sagt Ann Reese, Lead Independant Director bei Xerox. „Der Vorstand führte eine intensive interne und externe Suche durch, um die passenden Talente zu identifizieren. Jeff hat gezeigt, dass er die richtigen Voraussetzungen für diese Position mitbringt und die Zukunft unseres Unternehmens zum Wohle unserer Aktionäre, Kunden, Partner und Angestellten bestmöglich führen wird.“ Am 29. Januar 2016 hatte Xerox verkündet, sich künftig in zwei unabhängige, börsennotierte Unternehmen aufzuspalten: Xerox, das als Document Technology-Unternehmen die Bereiche der Dokumenttechnologie und das Dokumentmanagement-Outsourcing vereint, und Conduent Inc., für Business Process Services. Das Unternehmen ist dabei, seine Aufteilungspläne bis Ende 2016 vollständig realisiert zu haben. Xerox wird als weltweit führendes Unternehmen im Document Technology- und Documentmanagement-Outsourcing-Bereich überlegene Technologien, Lösungen und Innovationen voranbringen. Das Unternehmen, das 2015 rund elf Milliarden US-Dollar erwirtschaftete, wird seinen Kunden weiterhin als Partner zur Seite stehen und ihnen dabei helfen, Produktivität, Workflow und Business Performance durch ein tiefgreifendes Verständnis von der Art und Weise, wie Menschen arbeiten, weiter zu optimieren. Conduent Inc. wird als führendes Unternehmen im Bereich Business Process Services Unternehmen und Behörden dabei unterstützen, transaktionsintensive Prozesse im großen Maßstab zu managen. Mit Erträgen von rund sieben Milliarden US-Dollar im Jahr 2015 – die meisten davon fußen auf regelmäßigen Einnahmen – wird sich das Unternehmen auf attraktive Wachstumsmärkte wie Transport- und Gesundheitswesen sowie private und öffentliche Dienstleistungen konzentrieren.

JUser: :_load: Unable to load user with ID: 999 Metro Harian, 31 October 2013 | NIOSH perkenal OSH pasti keselamatan di institusi pendidikan. New Straits Times, 29 January 2013 KOTA KINABALU: Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) certification has become the key determinant for the future of industries. National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (Niosh) chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye said yesterday since 2004, the institute had issued Occupational Safety and Health Management System (MS 1722 and OHSAS 18001) certificates to 22 companies nationwide. This includes certifying two Sabah oil palm companies -- Lahad Datu Edible Oils Sdn Bhd and TSH Wilmar Sdn Bhd, Kunak -- since Niosh Certification Sdn Bhd (NCSB) was established nine years ago. "With this certification, we help companies to create branding and it is one way to make sure that industries in Malaysia becomes competent and productive." He was speaking at the Media Appreciation Lunch 2013 at Pan Pacific Sutera, yesterday. Present were NCSB general manager Shamsul Zahrin Zainudin and Sabah and Labuan Niosh manager Mohd Hussin Abd Salam. Lee said Sabah was moving towards industrialisation and it was important to comply with the safety standards regulations. "If a company is certified, customers will be satisfied and they are confident this is a company which complies with safety standards." This year, Niosh will be organising the Third Borneo Conference and Exhibition on Occupational Safety and Health 2013 in June, here. Themed "A Global Strategy: Optimising Productivity Through Accident Prevention", the conference would allow participants (employers and employees) to gain knowledge and share information.

Portal berkenaan boleh dilayari menerusi laman sesawang Kementerian Sumber Manusia iaitu www.mohr.gov.my atau http://minimumwages.mohr.gov.my The Star, 31 October 2013 BATU PAHAT: The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (Niosh) has pressed the alarm button over the rising number of commuting accidents in the country. According to Socso statistics, the number has increased each year – from 17,682 cases in 2007 to 26,262 last year. From January to July this year, there were 16,440 cases. Commuting accidents, mainly road accidents, involve workers on the way to or from the workplace. Niosh chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye said the Government was worried about the rise in the number of such accidents. “We are concerned because commuting accident cases have gone up about 24% over the last two years. “Niosh is working closely with the Department of Occupational Safety and Health, Socso and the Road Safety Department to provide education, defensive riding and driving training and others. “We want to educate workers so that they will be more careful on the road,” he said at the launch of an Occupational Safety and Health in School programme at the Kluang Vocational College here yesterday. The college is the first vocational institution which participated in the programme since its introduction in 2004 to inculcate work safety awareness in school. Talks and exhibitions are conducted at schools for teachers and students. So far, more than 20 primary and secondary schools have joined the programme. According to Lee, 333 incidents were reported in the education sector in 2011 and 310 cases in 2010, but many more were not reported. “Many feel that schools are safe, but accidents can happen anywhere and we have come across cases like collapsed roofs and accidents on the football field and in the laboratory. “We want to teach teachers and students about OSH knowledge so they can treat the school like a workplace,” he said.

On Sunday morning, NBC’s “Meet the Press” host Kirsten Welker repeatedly confronted Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) after he claimed, without evidence, that Vice President Kamala Harris is using “her DOJ” to arrest political opponents. The interview was one of three appearances by Vance on major networks, including CNN and CBS, where the Republican vice presidential nominee clashed with hosts. During the NBC interview, Vance, who is Donald Trump’s running mate, found himself at odds with Welker as he sought to shift the conversation towards what he described as the greatest threat in America today: the Biden-Harris administration allegedly using government power against its critics. The confrontation escalated when Vance pivoted from criticizing former Trump White House chief of staff John Kelly, whom he accused of being a “disgruntled” ex-employee seeking revenge for being fired by Trump, to attacking Harris and President Joe Biden. “If he was what John Kelly said he [Trump] was, then why did Donald Trump deliver peace and prosperity?” Vance questioned. “He didn’t arrest his political opponents as Kamala Harris and the Department of Justice have in fact done.” Welker immediately challenged this statement, interrupting Vance to clarify the facts. “There’s no evidence, there is no evidence of that,” she asserted as Vance attempted to talk over her. Refusing to back down, Vance pressed on, “The Department of Justice has not been going after political opponents?” “Senator, there is no evidence of that,” Welker replied, maintaining her stance. Undeterred, Vance doubled down on his allegations, insisting, “The current Department of Justice under Kamala Harris and Joe Biden has absolutely been going after their political opponents of the current Democratic party, and I think it’s a disgrace, but it’s happening.” Welker, however, stood firm, repeating that “There’s no evidence that the DOJ is going after their political opponents. Donald Trump was indicted by federal grand juries.” The back-and-forth highlighted the intense debate surrounding the Department of Justice’s actions, especially as former President Trump faces multiple legal challenges. Vance’s claims echo sentiments often expressed by Trump and his allies, alleging that the administration is weaponizing the DOJ against political adversaries. However, such statements have yet to be substantiated with concrete evidence. Welker’s response illustrates the role of journalists in fact-checking and holding politicians accountable when they make unsubstantiated claims. By confronting Vance directly, she demonstrated a commitment to maintaining the integrity of the information being shared with the public, particularly on a prominent platform like “Meet the Press.” The exchange between Welker and Vance is emblematic of the heightened political tensions leading up to the election, as candidates and their allies push narratives that resonate with their bases. For Vance, portraying the Biden-Harris administration as an oppressive force is part of a broader strategy aimed at energizing Republican voters. However, the persistence of journalists like Welker in challenging such narratives underscores the importance of truth and accountability in political discourse. As the campaign season progresses, moments like these may become increasingly common, with media figures continuing to challenge candidates on the accuracy of their statements. For voters, these exchanges serve as an opportunity to scrutinize the validity of the claims made by those seeking office and to remain informed amidst a polarized political environment.

The assassination of John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, and the subsequent killing of his brother, Robert F. Kennedy, have long been subjects of conspiracy theories. Robert F. Kennedy, a former Attorney General and prominent Democrat, was assassinated on June 5, 1968, with Sirhan Sirhan convicted for the crime. However, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., son of the late senator, has recently challenged the official account, suggesting Sirhan was not the true killer. In an appearance on Club Random Podcast hosted by Bill Maher, RFK Jr. shared his controversial perspective, as reported by Men’s Journal. Maher began the interview by discussing RFK Jr.’s presidential campaign and his thoughts on current issues, including his stance on COVID-19 vaccines. The conversation eventually turned to the events of June 5, 1968, when RFK Jr. explained his belief that while Sirhan was involved, he was not the one who fatally shot his father. “His story is that he has no memory of it, and stuck with that story for 60 years,” RFK Jr. said, referring to Sirhan’s long-held confession. He then described his own investigation into the case. “But when I sat down and read the autopsy report, it became clear to me, as it would to anybody who read that report, that Sirhan could not have killed my father—which is what Thomas Noguchi, the most important coroner probably in American history, concluded and wrote in his autobiography.” RFK Jr. recounted the events of the assassination at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, emphasizing key details that led him to question the official narrative. “Sirhan fired two shots at my father from five feet away. There was absolute mayhem in the kitchen of the Ambassador Hotel… He walked off the stage and took an unexpected route through the kitchen. Waiting in the kitchen in an ambush was Sirhan Sirhan, who fired two shots as my father approached… The other shot went past my father’s ear and hit a wooden door jamb behind him. Sirhan was then grabbed by six men in a dog pile. He fired six more shots, in the opposite direction from where my father was.” Based on his analysis, RFK Jr. believes Sirhan was a distraction and that another individual was responsible for the fatal shots. He named Eugene Thane Cesar, a security guard allegedly present at the scene, as the real shooter. RFK Jr. claimed Cesar, who was reportedly standing behind his father, was a CIA operative and an outspoken critic of the Kennedys. “He was holding my father’s arm. He drew his gun, and my father was shot four times from behind,” RFK Jr. stated. According to RFK Jr., Cesar’s position and actions during the shooting align with the autopsy findings that Noguchi outlined, suggesting the shots came from behind at close range. He theorizes that Cesar, using Sirhan as a scapegoat, orchestrated the assassination. RFK Jr.’s remarks add to the long-standing debate and skepticism surrounding the assassination of his father, a tragedy that, like his uncle’s, has left unanswered questions and fueled various conspiracy theories for decades. Whether his claims will influence any reexamination of the case remains uncertain, but RFK Jr. continues to push for what he believes is the truth.

This is a photo I took on my iPhone. I took it while walking to my friends house through their estate. Between the bicycle sheds was an open space and neatly set up, were these two objects. I couldn’t have made a better photo set-up if I tried! I discussed this with my tutor Damien yesterday. He talked about how without the hoover the photograph is something completely different. The chair on its own would make the photo look like some sort of stage set up awaiting its actor. It would become a more sombre and lonely photo and yet the addition of the Hoover brings in a comical element to the photo. Neatly laid beside each other they give hints of human life. While most likely left out as rubbish it is completely odd to see them placed in such clean and tidy environment. My only problem with this photo is its quality. I took it with my iPhone and not with my proper camera. This has been an issue for me in the past. But I am beginning to realise, the most important camera you will ever own is the one you will always have on you. The iPhone and all other video phones have allowed us to capture transient moments we would never have dreamed of catching 10 years ago. I immediately think of all those youtube videos of fights/events/accidents captured in a split second by someone sitting on the tube. Whether these kind of moments captured is a good thing or not is up for debate but I am fascinated by this new ability we have. Moments otherwise lost to the back of our memory, that they can be potentially changed and manipulated, now are kept real and present. They are like a safety bank for our memories. But more importantly they are shared. More and more people are upload these incidents and chance moments on the internet. Allowing for heroes and ‘internet sensations’ to be created! Anyone ever heard of Snackman?

Engage Your Board and Help Them Fulfill their Fundraising Goals Spring benefit season is fast approaching. It’s the season of giving… but for fundraising event planners, it’s the season of asking! One challenge organizations often face is the issue of how to help their board of directors fulfill their fundraising commitments. Make it Simple and Easy Your Board is busy and they have many other obligations. They want to help, but may need to be offered clarity on how to begin: -> Scripted messages -> Clear expectations -> A set timeline -> Scheduled reminders Defining these clear guidelines right from the start will help avoid confusion later. For example, scripted messages (such as, pre-written emails, fundraising appeals, phone scripts, and social media posts) will prompt board members to get started immediately, because there is less work involved from their end. Board members may want to customize these messages, and that is definitely okay… even encouraged! We all know that people are more likely to give when asked by someone they know… This is why a customized approach is better than a generic ask. Setting timelines and sending reminders to your board is essential. You want to keep them on track and informed of personal and organizational goals. Expand Your Outreach Before getting started with outreach, you should work with each individual board member to help them organize their outreach list. They should consider: -> Someone they spend money with – accountant, lawyer, private banker -> Colleagues or alumni friends that they socialize with outside of the office -> Associates that have asked them to donate to their causes -> Philanthropic friends and family -> Large funders and donors/honorees from past events -> Someone who may be willing to use their contacts for event sponsorship or to help build a committee Numbers matter! After your campaign has concluded, show board members a visual representation of what was accomplished. Not only does this inform the BOD’s of the organization’s progress but also highlights accountability and provokes self-assessment. - Invest time in creating a formal report for the board, including a spreadsheet with comparison to any past campaigns. - Use summary categories for income and expenses to enable the board to focus on the big picture. - Provide a brief narrative along with the financial reporting. The narrative should highlight significant outcomes and explain variances from the plan. CONTACT US FOR MORE HELP |
