BOSTON – September 1, 2010 A team of scientists led by Massachusetts Institute of Technology Sea Grant (MITSG) College Program today announced the discovery of a new, as-yet unidentified parasite that is infecting cod in the waters of the Gulf of Maine. The parasite is a species of acanthocephalan, or spiny-headed worm. Heavily infected fish sicken and die, making the parasite a serious threat to cod populations. The parasite was first discovered by local commercial cod fishermen, who began noticing the easily-seen parasite as soon as the Gulf of Maine multispecies fishery opened in spring 2010. “It would have been hard to miss, “said Jack Spade, commercial fisherman and member of the Cape Cod Commercial Hook Fisherman’s Association (CCCHA). “Those worms are bright yellow.” MITSG is working with the local fishing community to map the prevalence and severity of infection of the new parasite. Several members of the CCCHA as well as fishermen in Gloucester and other Gulf of Maine ports are providing valuable data to researchers. If left unchecked, the parasite could severely curtail this year’s codfish catch, further damaging an already weakened commercial fishing sector. “We know we have a big role to play here,” said Mr. Spade, “and look forward to working with the researchers to get to the bottom of this.” MITSC is collaborating with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) parasitologists to identify the species and its native range and life cycle. Although unlikely, it is theoretically possible for humans who eat the infected cod to ingest the parasite and become infected themselves. “We do believe at this point that infection in humans is unlikely,” said EPA spokesperson Sharon McCoy. “The parasite is easily seen and it also lives in the body cavity of the fish, not in the muscle tissue.” However, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health is looking into whether any sort of restrictions are called for. As with any potentially threat to the food supply, the DPH recommends limiting exposure to possibly infected cod, particularly for young children, those with weakened immune systems and frail elderly. For the latest updates, check the Massachusetts DPH website. New Hampshire and Maine are not considering any public health actions at this time. Scientists at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution are also involved in the effort to identify the parasite. Population modelers at the Woods Hole Center for Oceans and Human Health (WHCOHH) are developing projections for how the parasite may affect cod stocks in the near future. To protect consumers, and the livelihoods of fishermen from Maine to Massachusetts, researchers hope to be able to forecast where and when the parasite will next appear. And their work may also lead to answers as to what and why. Scientists Dennis O’Leary and Zhuchen Le have developed a mathematical model of the parasite’s dynamics —a series of equations that captures the physical and biological factors involved in the movements of the parasite through the cod stocks in the Gulf of Maine. O’Leary and Le entered a range of factors into their model: the speeds and directions of ocean currents, water temperature and salinity, winds, surface heat exchanges, tides, river runoff, and the distribution and behavior of the parasite in the water. They also incorporated other computer models that describe waterborne nutrients, solar radiation, and large-scale motions in the North Atlantic Ocean. “The beauty of a numerical model,” said O’Leary, “is that it can be used to investigate extraordinarily complex systems by posing the problem in terms of a few guiding principles expressed as mathematical equations.” WHCOHH researchers regularly share their field observations and models with more than 80 coastal resource and fisheries managers in six states as well as federal entities like NOAA, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Food and Drug Administration. “Managers believe that a regional-scale, seasonal outlook can be useful in preparing for contingencies, ” said Dr. Judith Pederson of MITSG. ” This advanced warning, along with updates closer to and during the cod fishing season, can help state agencies prepare for monitoring and assessing public health risks, and also give fishermen the opportunity to shift the timing of their harvest.” Area restaurants may also benefit from advance warnings by making contingency plans for seafood supplies. WHCOHH is funded by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute for Envrionmental Health Sciences. Additional research is provided by the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Maine Department of Marine Resources, New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries.

The Georgia Foundation for Public Education (GFPE), in partnership with the Georgia Creative Communities Project, is introducing a tax credit program that allows businesses to proactively support students in K-12 schools with the skills a broad range of employers have identified as essential. By participating in the new tax credit program, businesses can help prepare students for the future workforce and engage in growing Georgia’s strong creative ecosystem in communities across the state. The PEACH Education Tax Credit allows individuals and businesses to donate to the public education system in Georgia and receive a dollar-for-dollar credit on their state income taxes. These dollars are then used to direct grants to K-12 schools and districts. The Georgia Creative Communities K-12 Fund is a program under the PEACH Education Tax Credit. For this initiative, GFPE will invite schools to apply for grants focused on one of five priority areas: - Film, theater and television production - Animation, special effects and post-production - Production of video games, esports, virtual reality and augmented reality - creative writing - Audio Production/Music Production “Our vision for this fund is to connect the workforce of tomorrow to the creative industry jobs that are moving to Georgia at an increasing rate, and to do so in cooperation with Georgia’s creative sector businesses,” said said Paige Pushkin, Executive Director of GFPE. . “We look forward to partnering with the Georgia Department of Economic Development and the Creative Communities Project to bring these opportunities to Georgia districts, schools, and students.” A recent study shows that 50% of job postings cite creativity as a necessary skill, and educators say the risk of task automation is lower in occupations that require creative problem-solving skills. As technology and creative workforce projects developed and recruited in Georgia have increased, the Georgia Center of Innovation, a strategic arm of the Department of Economic Development (GDEcD), launched the Georgia Creative Communities Project to help prepare students to participate in the state’s growing creative industries. This economic development initiative connects Georgian communities to nearby resources and opportunities in various creative sectors, including games, animation, post-production, music, and more. The GFPE, which is the philanthropic arm of the Georgia Department of Education, will announce information about grant opportunities directly to districts and schools as soon as funding becomes available. “The Georgia Creative Communities Project aims to educate and inform our communities about the wide range of opportunities available here in Georgia’s creative industries. This partnership allows us to impact K-12 education with next-level exposure and learning for students and teachers,” said Dawn Price and Asante Bradford, Engagement Managers. of industry at the Georgia Center of Innovation and co-developers of the Georgia Creative Communities Project. . “We are developing the next generation of content creators here in Georgia. By building the creative ecosystem and a strong future pipeline, we are working to make Georgia a global leader for the next generation of creative talent.

UBS Quarterly Net Beats Estimates on Investment BankElena Logutenkova UBS AG, Switzerland’s biggest bank, reported first-quarter earnings that beat analyst estimates on higher revenues at the investment bank and in wealth management. UBS rose as much as 7.3 percent in Swiss trading after reporting net income of 988 million Swiss francs ($1.05 billion), more than double the 412.3 million-franc mean estimate of nine analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. Chief Executive Officer Sergio Ermotti announced 10,000 job cuts and the exit of most debt-trading businesses at the investment bank last year to concentrate UBS on money management and boost profitability. UBS is trading at a higher price relative to estimated earnings and book value than Credit Suisse Group AG as investors back the company’s focus on wealth management. “UBS caught us by surprise,” said Christopher Wheeler, a London-based analyst at Mediobanca SpA with a neutral rating on the stock. “It seems very clear that the equities business was a blowout. And wealth management had very strong inflows.” UBS jumped 6.5 percent to 16.73 francs by 9:05 a.m. in Zurich, bringing the gain over the past year to 48 percent. That compares with a 27 percent gain in the Bloomberg Europe Banks and Financial Services Index of 40 companies. “It’s too early to talk about vindication or to declare victory, but I think I’m extremely pleased with the progress we made so far in executing our strategy,” Ermotti, 52, said in an interview with Bloomberg Television. “It’s working. I’m very pleased to see that clients are responding well to the strategy.” The investment bank posted a 92 percent gain in pretax profit to 977 million francs, beating the average analysts’ estimate of 321 million francs. The unit, which aims for an annual pretax return on equity of more than 15 percent, reported that measure of profitability at 49.5 percent for the quarter, up from 17 percent a year earlier. “The strategy of the new investment bank works with two-thirds less capital allocation than a year ago,” Ermotti said. Revenue at the securities unit rose 21 percent from a year earlier to 2.79 billion francs, helped by gains in equities and equity capital markets, which rose 17 percent to 1.17 billion francs and more than doubled to 503 million francs, respectively. Equities revenue included a 55 million-franc gain from the sale of a part of UBS’s former proprietary stock-trading desk, which the bank closed last year, while equity capital markets business benefited from a large private transaction, the bank said. “UBS is delivering on restructuring well ahead of schedule,” JPMorgan Chase & Co. analysts Kian Abouhossein and Amit Ranjan said in a note. They have an overweight rating on UBS. Earnings in wealth management fell 28 percent to 664 million francs on higher costs, after profit a year ago benefited from a reduction in expenses related to changes in the company’s Swiss pension plan. The division attracted 15 billion francs in net new money from investors in the quarter, the biggest amount since 2007, with all regions registering inflows. The gross margin, a measure of how much revenue UBS makes on assets, rebounded by 6 basis points from the last quarter of 2012 to 91 basis points. A basis point is a hundredth of a percentage point. The bank saw the biggest inflows in Asia Pacific, with 5.5 billion francs, and in emerging markets, with 4.9 billion francs. The gross margin in those regions rose to 89 basis points from 74 basis points and to 95 basis points from 92 basis points, respectively. “If you’re not in developing markets or Asia you’re not going to see growth,” said Wheeler. UBS saw an increase in client risk appetite in the first few weeks of the year, Ermotti said in the interview, while the re-emergence of the European sovereign-debt crisis with the situation in Cyprus damped that. Juerg Zeltner, who heads UBS wealth management outside the Americas, said in an interview earlier this month that the revamp of the investment process the company has been undertaking since hiring Chief Investment Officer Alexander Friedman is helping the bank compete globally. Zeltner plans to expand the onshore business in Europe and invest in hiring and technology in Asia and emerging markets, where he doesn’t exclude acquisitions. UBS is educating client advisers to make sure investment recommendations are followed through and rolling out a new offering for clients, where they would be charged a fixed fee for advisory services rather than commissions on each transaction. Profit at the wealth management Americas unit rose 22 percent to 234 million francs, as the business, run by Robert McCann, attracted 8.6 billion francs in net new money. The retail and corporate division posted a 48 percent drop in pretax profit to 347 million francs, as year-earlier figures were boosted by changes in the Swiss pension plan, while asset management increased earnings 12 percent to 190 million francs. UBS said its common equity ratio under fully-applied Basel III rules rose to 10.1 percent in the quarter from 9.8 percent at the end of the year. The bank aims to boost common equity to about 11.5 percent by the end of 2013. Deutsche Bank AG, continental Europe’s biggest bank, said yesterday it will sell about 2.8 billion euros in new shares to boost its core tier 1 capital ratio to about 9.5 percent from 8.8 percent at the end of March. First-quarter earnings rose 19 percent, beating estimates.

The NATO administration warned Russia of new sanctions, should the Russian administration does not contribute to the cessation of the conflict in Ukraine. Foreign ministers of NATO countries gathered in Brussels to elaborate a joint approach to Russia. US State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf stated that the USA had prepared additional sanctions against Russia. The sanctions can be introduced very quickly, Harf said. According to her, Washington positively estimated Moscow's move not to use Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine. However, the US would like to see more dynamic actions from Russia. The USA and the EU introduced sanctions against several Russian politicians, businessmen and companies after Russia reunited with the Crimea in March, following the results of the referendum on the peninsula. Now the US threatens to expand sanctions by introducing restrictions on the export of technologies for the oil and gas industry to Russia. Vice Rector of the Russian Economic University named after Plekhanov, member of the Public Chamber, Director of the Institute of Political Studies, political scientist Sergei Markov said in an interview with Pravda.Ru that Washington may decide to impose the third package of sanctions against Russia. On Wednesday, US Secretary of State John Kerry said that Moscow should stop the flow of weapons across the border. Kerry urged Putin to call on "separatists" to "lay down their arms." Obama again called Merkel and Hollande and agreed to make the announcement about sanctions in the field of energy and "Moscow's restrictions to world financial markets" at the EU summit on June 26-27. "Putin stated in Vienna that peace talks do not imply the disarmament of the south-east of Ukraine, so it is unlikely that the wishes of the Americans will be fulfilled. Does it mean that the West will announce new sanctions against Russia?" "I think that sanctions will be inevitably developing. The more steps Russia takes to retreat, the tougher the sanctions will be. There is a struggle of the party of peace and the party of war in Washington. The party of war claims that it can arrange a coup in Russia with the help of war to overthrow the leadership and bring a puppet government to power to put Russia down on its knees. They claim that the Russian government is afraid of sanctions, and, therefore, sanctions must be applied as the main tool of showing influence on Russia. "Moreover, I think that sanctions will affect middle classes in the future as well, because the goal is to set the middle class against the leadership of the country and create problems for the middle class. So all this will continue to evolve. "Washington has committed so many crimes in Ukraine, that it is obvious that there is a global goal hidden behind it. Obviously, the goal is a coup in Russia, like it was in Ukraine. Russia maneuvers and tries to get away from deploying the troops. "There should be no peace and no equality of Russian and Ukrainian communities in Ukraine. Washington needs the de-Russification of Ukraine, to have extremist, terrorist forces in power that will conduct the violent de-Russification and become a tool of struggle against the Russian leadership. "I believe that this plan includes the following. There will be strong anti-Russian propaganda conducted as it is now being done in most parts of Ukraine. They will make common Ukrainians hate Russia, Russians and everything related to Russia. They will use terror to suppress all forces that oppose this, as was done in Kharkov and Odessa. "Afterwards, they will have the NATO army ready. In two years, the army of NATO will attack Russia to fight for the Crimea. Fighters from the "Right Sector" nationalist movement will be used as mass saboteurs, terrorists, who, in the fight for the Crimea, will conduct mass terrorist attacks in Russian cities." "U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Manufacturers -Obama's election sponsor - said that potential sanctions against Russian energy, defense and financial sectors may harm U.S. businesses and lead to job losses. Is this a serious argument?" "Indeed, it will cause considerable damage, but no one will listen. Interests of particular businesses will be subordinated to common interests. There are many people, who want to avoid the Cold War between Russia and the West. This is an illusion. We are already in a condition that is much more serious than a Cold War. This is a hybrid war being waged by the war party in Washington. It is possible to remove the war party from power by only proving that going on the path of war is impossible. As long as the war party supervises the U.S. foreign policy, there will be no peace in Ukraine." "Who guides the U.S. president, even if American entrepreneurs are against these sanctions? Or are they unsuccessful actions of Obama as a politician?" "The war party does. There are different businesses there. The military business is not against the war. Those companies that were promised to have Gazprom and Rosneft in their hands after Russia is kneeled - they do not mind." "Are they sanctions against Putin personally? Why does Obama dislike the Russian president?" "It's not that he dislikes him. Maybe he's a little jealous. But this is not important. The bottom line is that Putin is seen as one of those who disagree with Washington's omnipotence."

When it comes to getting fit and staying in shape, what’s the best approach? According to Laurie White, the answer is easy: “The best exercise is the one you do,” the ski guide told the Georgia Straight. If White’s advice sounds too simplistic, mull over her words while taking a long walk. After all, putting one foot in front of the other is something that comes naturally. “You’ll never do anything better than walking,” advised the fiftyish instructor. “I use Nordic walking poles for power walking coupled with a heart monitor, which is an essential tool to track your workout.” Then she followed up with a caveat: “When you’re out for a walk, don’t stick to level ground but use the landscape to get the most benefit. Step up and down on curbs. Uneven terrain works the proprioception muscles in your lower legs, which are crucial to balance—and balance is the key to fitness.” Balancing daily exercise with a busy work schedule is one of life’s biggest challenges. One underappreciated lesson of holding down a job is that it instills the importance of simply showing up day after day. Apply that same attitude to a fitness session. Embellish a workout with a dash of creativity by using the landscape to your advantage. That’s exactly what fitness instructor Neil Chomos demonstrated to the Straight during a recent outing along a section of the waterfront Spirit Trail in North Vancouver. Pausing beside a panoramic viewpoint, with Coal Harbour spread out before him, the owner of the BFit Health and Wellness personal-training facility did step-ups on a picnic bench, then finished off with some pushups on the tabletop. Hopping down, he moved over to the seawall and chose an appropriately sized piece of riprap to use for some weightlifting. “The West Coast has long been considered the fittest area in Canada, and I would match it up against anywhere in North America,” he said, then added with obvious pride: “And the North Shore is the fittest area in the Lower Mainland because we have the ideal topography for a good cardio workout.” Getting your heart rate up is key to obtaining the maximum benefits from exercise. White and Chomos agree that downhill or cross-country skiing offers the best cardio routine in winter. “All that upper-body pole-planting combined with the lower-body sliding movement guarantees a complete workout,” said White, who for the past three years has run the Ski Sisters instruction program for women at Sun Peaks’ snow-sports school. Given the North Shore’s hilly topography, with limited level ground on offer, skiing may not be the best fitness option for everyone. No matter the locale, when it comes to basic exercises, White said, she’s a firm believer in pushups. “I do core training every day with a fitness ball with an eye on exercises designed equally for flexibility, balance, cardiovascular endurance, and muscular strength,” she added. “Of all of these four, endurance is the most important to me.” Throughout the year, one of the biggest fitness challenges occurs when travelling. On the road, adhering to daily workout routines becomes more difficult. To that end, Chomos recommended investing in an inexpensive sliding disk for foot lunges paired with a length of surgical tubing fitted with handle grips that you can trap under a hotel-room door. As for mitigating muscle fatigue after skiing, White favours a 15-minute power walk. “Even if it’s the last thing you want to do, you won’t have sore legs the next day.” When time is at a premium, deciding where to go and how much to budget per exercise session can be puzzling. Chomos recommended finding a good outdoor route in a nearby green space. “I gravitate to trails,” said the former competitive runner, who favours Capilano River Regional Park—which separates North and West Vancouver—as the place to be. “There are plenty of dips and step-ups along a good mix of smooth and uneven pathways, plus a blend of flats and hills. I start at the top of Cleveland Dam, drop down past the fish hatchery, and finish on an uphill climb, which is always a good challenge.” As to how long a workout should last, both instructors advocated a minimum of 30 minutes of cardio thrice weekly. “Researchers found even though there are benefits for less than that, there are limited rewards,” Chomos said. “The definition of cardio varies with age and physical condition. A brisk walk would qualify if you were unfit. The fitter you are, the higher intensity required to qualify as cardio. A heart monitor is the best way to track that.” When asked to list his top three suggestions for maintaining a healthy fitness level, Chomos pinpointed enlisting a friend as a workout buddy. “People are more likely to continue a routine when they’re accountable to someone else. It’s a fantastic motivator. Plus, keep a daily exercise and nutritional journal. Compliance to a habit is more accountable when you write it down. “Most of all, make it fun. I don’t subscribe to the no pain, no gain philosophy. Don’t pick an activity if you’re not going to enjoy it. Even if it’s not the best, you’re most likely to continue.” With those words of wisdom, take a deep breath, then do what may be the hardest thing of all on a wintry day: step outside.

Republican Sen. Roger Wicker is vying for another term as a United States Senator for the state of Mississippi. Tornado sirens will sound throughout Mississippi Wednesday, but for area schools, the statewide drill is just one of several they have already conducted this year in preparation for the fall tornado season. It's a typical fall evening in Columbus. Hundreds have packed the stands at Columbus High School to cheer the Falcons to victory for their homecoming game. At the top of the bleachers, away from their parents and out of earshot of teachers, a group of young boys have gathered. As it often does with teenage boys, the conversation turns to sex. Data released by the Mississippi Department of Employment Services (MDES) shows unemployment rates fell in August in every county. But the more telling data is comparing August unemployment numbers to those of the previous August. Last week, USA Today reported that 21,000 jobs are created each month in the restaurant business, one of the few fields that seems to have continually defied the economic woes that have slowed job growth across the U.S. Locally, the economic impact of the restaurant industry seems to mirror that national trend. For the 200 members of Mississippi State University's Gamma Zeta chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha, breast cancer awareness is both national philanthropy and personal mission. And though October is traditionally set aside for awareness campaigns, for these young women, it is a year-round passion. A small company won a $10 million federal grant to expand wireless service in one of Alabama's most isolated regions, a five-county area west of Montgomery where it's sometimes impossible to make a cellphone call. A statement from Britain's National Pig Association sent pork lovers reeling Tuesday. In the report, British hog farmers claim the world will be facing a shortage of pork, particularly bacon, in 2013. But some local experts say the shortage statement is somewhat misleading. The Mississippi Highway Patrol is encouraging citizens to come to the Starkville Substation tomorrow and donate blood. The owner of a Monroe County car dealership was arrested on Thursday and charged with possession of cocaine, possession of marijuana, possession of a weapon by a convicted felon and possession of stolen firearms. Alabama voters decided by a 2-to-1 margin Tuesday to avoid dramatic cuts in state government by withdrawing $437 million from a state trust fund to help balance the General Fund budget for the next three years. First, the good news: More students than ever are flocking to Mississippi colleges. The bad news? Enrollment across the state remains relatively flat, with only three of Mississippi's eight public universities showing unduplicated headcount increases in preliminary fall figures, according to a report issued Monday by the state Institutions of Higher Learning. A former West Point Municipal Judge was arrested in Monroe County on Thursday and charged with breaking and entering of a dwelling. Friday afternoon, Columbus-Lowndes Development Link CEO Joe Higgins and a seven-person steering committee proudly presented their "baby" to a packed house at East Mississippi Community College's Lyceum Auditorium. The grades are in, and in some cases, the results aren't pretty. As national college rankings continue to emerge from the mainstream print media in "Best of Colleges" guides, Mississippi University for Women and Mississippi State University once more find themselves earning accolades for the quality of education provided and the value benefits they offer for cost-conscious students and parents. A judge has ordered a second mental evaluation for a man charged with setting fire to a north Mississippi antiques business. The United Way of Lowndes County held its annual "Day of Service" Tuesday morning, with 160 volunteers helping local service agencies with tasks they often either don't have the manpower, equipment or spare change to handle themselves. Friday, the public will get its first look at the details behind a proposed tri-county economic coalition between Lowndes, Clay and Oktibbeha. It's not the quantity of the voters that counted, but what the ones who voted had to say. Voters in West Point passed a resolution to allow the city to levy a one-percent tourism sales tax, bringing the sales tax to nine percent on restaurant, liquor store and hotel/motel purchases. 1. Ex-employee threatens shooting at Zaxby's COLUMBUS & LOWNDES COUNTY 2. Cold case arrest brings closure to family COLUMBUS & LOWNDES COUNTY 4.

McCaffrey had earlier been taken through the sequence of events around how Seán Quinn ended up borrowing so much money from Anglo Irish Bank by prosecuting counsel Úna Ní Raifeartaigh SC. “We need to go back over matters in a bit more detail,” Grehan said, however. - No minutes taken at six board meetings, says former Anglo Irish Bank secretary - Former chief executive says Quinn held on to CFDs waiting for price to recover - Quinn was ‘eternally optimistic’ about Anglo share price - Derivatives like backing horses, economist tells trial - Glimpse inside Anglo as tumultuous year unfolded He asked McCaffrey where was his job relative to company founder Seán Quinn. “On top of me if I can put it like that,” McCaffrey said. “Seán Quinn was the boss,” he explained. McCaffrey agreed that Quinn had initially invested in shares based on his opinion of their senior management using an offshore company owned by his children called Bazzely Ltd. Grehan asked McCaffrey when did he believe Quinn first began to prefer using contracts for difference, a financial instrument, versus buying shares to invest. McCaffrey said he was not sure but he believed “brokers in London” had introduced the Fermanagh businessman to the idea. ‘Enamoured’ of CFDs Grehan contended Quinn had gradually become “enamoured” of CFDs. “Clearly it ended up that way, yes,” McCaffrey said. Grehan asked McCaffrey had a “laying all ones eggs in one basket type of situation,” developed in relation to Anglo. “Yes,” McCaffrey replied. McCaffrey said the Quinn Group had made profits of up to €500 million during the boom. He said the Quinn Group had never formally valued itself so he was unable to agree with Grehan’s contention it was worth €5 billion. “I saw figures in the paper,” he said. Grehan asked McCaffrey what would have happened if Quinn had been unable to fund his margin calls in relation to his CFDs. “If funding hadn’t been forthcoming, the course of action would have been to close out the positions,” McCaffrey said. Quinn did not want to do this. “I think his view of the scale of the recovery changed, but ‘How low can it go?’ was one comment I remember him making.” Grehan put it to McCaffrey that the scale of Quinn’s punt meant “effectively the bank was joined with Seán Quinn at the hip”. “I don’t really know,” McCaffrey replied. Grehan said Quinn had continued to increase his CFD position in Anglo even after it became a “major problem” for him in late 2007. “I think he did, yes,” McCaffrey replied. Grehan said ultimately Quinn’s stake went to 29 per cent, but McCaffrey said he thought this figure was 28 per cent. Grehan said that part of the reason Anglo had lent Quinn €500 million in December 2007 was to replace money that had been loaned out of the insurance company to Quinn in order to fund his CFD position. McCaffrey said the “maximum” taken out was €300 million. He disputed Grehan’s assertion that the Quinn Group had had major difficulties getting its accounts signed off on by its auditors in 2008 because of various actions taken at that time. McCaffrey disagreed with Grehan’s claim that PwC had reported Quinn Insurance to the financial regulator because of its concerns. “The company reported the matter to the financial regulator.” McCaffrey agreed the regulator had “concerns,” about what had happened in Quinn Insurance and admitted the company was later fined. Grehan described the regulator as practising “light-touch regulation” at that time. “It is a matter of opinion,” McCaffrey said. Grehan asked in general was it fair to say the regulator tried to work with companies rather than “jump on their backs”. McCaffrey replied: “In general terms I would have thought so.” McCaffrey said the Quinn Group had borrowed €200 million from Anglo in June 2008 to prevent it breaching its agreements with its other banks and bondholders. He said if this loan had not been given it would not have been “terminal” for the Quinn Group, noting that companies breached their covenants without losing control. “It is speculation to what extent it would have damaged the group,” he said. He said it was wrong to conclude as Grehan claimed the Quinn Group was “running out of money”. McCaffrey said the Quinn Group was “low on cash reserves,” to meet its covenants with banks and bondholders but it was never short of enough money to run the business. Funding ‘dried up’ Grehan said that “funding all around the world had effectively dried up” and claimed the Quinn Group had nowhere to turn but to Anglo for money. “I suspect nobody else would have funded margin calls.” Grehan claimed this should be more than a suspicion for “an intelligent man.” The jury heard that by the first week of July, the Quinn Group owed Anglo €2.4 billion. Grehan put it to McCaffrey that Anglo was close to breaching banking rules if it lent the group any more money. McCaffrey replied: “I don’t recall the matter coming up.” The case continues today.

And find twopenny loans to monetary fund these dreams of ours is the authenticity of the present. The emphasis in this day is on exploit tick happiness. So it is no amazement that the debt markets are booming. Cheap loans are pronto available, and location are numerous permutations and combinations of these that net them convincing for the wishes of a bird's-eye span of ethnic group. Then again, the debt providers are incisive to tap the groups that have few offers reachable to them. Thus, we are now talker to a ontogeny of bad recognition loans to see to the respect wishes of individuals near bad approval histories. Moreover, within have been a numeral of developments in the types of loans that are addressable in the flea market. In the past, in-person latched loans were the way to go. But that is no long the skin. Today's loan markets are sighted newer and newer offers and debt types. One of the hottest entrants to these loan markets are what are person called payday loans.Post ads: Hello Kitty WakuWaku Seaweed Set / 4" Linking Rings Empire / TRACK WORKER - PREISER HO SCALE MODEL TRAIN FIGURES 28090 / Exploding Cigarette Pack / Music Flash Light Plastic Peg Top Spinner Children Toy / In Character Teen Cleopatra Egyptian Queen Junior / 1/35 Soviet GAZ 69(M) 4x4 UtilityTruck / Children's Basic Combo Truck Set / Walkera Lama 400D Part HM-LM400D-Z-06 Hollow Shaft / Chalk 50 Per Bucket Quantity: Case of 12, Color: White / Align T-Rex 550E Metal Rudder Servo Mount H55023 New / Space Odyssey Centerpiece Hc (6pks Case) / Associated Tc6 Diff Outdrives 31338 / Valentine Pink Bear with Hot Pink "Be Mine" Heart Plush / Brunswick Super Star Pinball White Rubber Ring Kit / Valiant Knight Centerpiece Hc (6pks Case) / Stern Monopoly Pinball White Rubber Ring Kit Payday loans are precisely what they uninjured like-minded.

What does ‘care’ mean in contemporary society? How are caring relationships practised in different contexts? What resources do individuals and collectives draw upon in order to care for, care with and care about themselves and others? How do such relationships and practices relate to broader social processes? Care shapes people’s everyday lives and relationships and caring relations and practices influence the economies of different societies. This interdisciplinary book takes a nuanced and context-sensitive approach to exploring caring relationships, identities and practices within and across a variety of cultural, familial, geographical and institutional arenas. Grounded in rich empirical research and discussing key theoretical, policy and practice debates, it provides important, yet often neglected, international and cross-cultural perspectives. It is divided into four sections covering: caring within educational institutions; caring amongst communities and networks; caring and families; and caring across the life-course. Contributing to broader theoretical, philosophical and moral debates associated with the ethics of care, citizenship, justice, relationality and entanglements of power, Critical Approaches to Care is an important work for students and academics studying caring and care work in the fields of health and social care, sociology, social policy, anthropology, education, human geography and politics. ‘Critical Approaches to Care is a rich and engaging work, both theoretically and empirically. Its richness is enhanced through its cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural focus. Through a series of case studies, it explores the moral dilemmas, power relations, ethical considerations, and even unwelcome demands of care from a range of perspectives and across different political contexts. It is a feminist-inspired work that is both inclusionary and respectful of diversity. It examines the many equality and gender justice dilemmas posed by care work, be it through caring for intellectually disabled children, fostering, transnational caring, fathering or mothering. At a theoretical level, it addresses the tensions between an ethics of care and an ethic of justice. The book challenges us to consider how an ethic of care can reinvent understanding of what is socially just in a deeply uncaring and unequal world. It should be read not only by academics and students but by all of those with a public policy remit.’ – Kathleen Lynch, Professor of Equality Studies in the School of Social Justice, UCD, Ireland. ‘Care is both deeply unfashionable in contemporary social policy, and an enduring focus for understanding everyday lives and social practices. This collection is a major contribution to the re-emergence of applied research and scholarship recognizing the centrality of care in diverse personal and professional relationships, and as a political value.’ – Marian Barnes, Professor of Social Policy, University of Brighton.

The open office, once the trendiest office fad, has hit a downturn in popularity. From academic studies to exposes in The New Yorker, BBC, and elsewhere, experts and employees alike have complained about the detriments of the open office. Although most organizations will not revert to the traditional model of having a number of private offices, help is on the way in 2019. Many have started looking into the value added to their work environment by office privacy booths. These are nine reasons why companies have started looking at phone booths and moving away from the open office towards an evolved concept called the “agile office." This style combines the best of the open and traditional office concepts & privacy booths can help make the retooling easier and more cost-effective. The Problematic Open Office From the 1950s until the first decade of this century, the open office has slowly taken over the work world. German experts created the concept after World War II as a way to force colleagues to occupy the same space instead of hiving off into their own separate spheres. They believed that without walls between them, employees would create a more communicative and creative environment. By the 1990s, tech companies embraced the ideal just as corporate America was searching for cost cutting measures to remain competitive. Unfortunately, the open office did not deliver on the promise of more communication, creativity, or productivity. Instead, it brough noise and aggravation. Nearly two thirds of American office workers complain of too much sound at work, while only 10 percent of employees in traditional offices say lack of communication is even a problem. Visual Distractions At Work While anyone in any work environment can experience visual distractions, they are more pervasive and problematic in the open office. Distractions do create serious issues for both the worker and the organization. According to a Humboldt University study in Berlin, it can take an average of 23 minutes for a worker to restore concentration once lost. In enclosed spaces, an individual can better control potential problems from a cell phone or computer display. Those stuck in open offices have no control over what could pull their eyes from their work. Cubicles have a limited ability to block out problems but 70 percent of all offices shun both walls and cubicles, forcing people to work with no protection whatsoever. Office Privacy Booths Stop Audial Distractions At Work Worse than the visual issues are audial distractions. Over 30 percent of all open office workers complain that excessive noise disrupts their work. Open offices create a cacophony of noise. Random conversations, ringing phones, office machines, and other noise pollution creates an atmosphere of constant distractions. The inability to escape from it can create a number of issues from individual health problems to drops in productivity across the board. Lack of Privacy for Phone Calls in the Open Office One major benefit of the office phone booth lies in its ability to create private spaces for business calls. Sometimes an employee needs to concentrate when on the phone with an important client. Other times, a person may need to take a call of a personal nature. Neither they nor their work colleagues want the nature of the call to be broadcast across the office. If for no other reason, the office booth plays an essential role in keeping private communication quiet. Privacy Booths Offer Work Space for Quiet Concentration A 2013 study indicated that office workers spent over half of their time on projects requiring individual focus. When one factors in the time spent in trying to re-establish concentration once broken, it is plain to see how overall productivity can suffer as a result. The Zenbooth's sturdy construction blocks up to 40 decibels of noise. This gives workers an opportunity to concentrate on work in peace and quiet or also take that important phone call. Employee Health Problems from Constant Noise Noise pollution in open offices without relief can not only affect productivity, but health as well. Studies show that many who are exposed to the typical daily sounds and noise level in an office environment can develop serious problems. Constant noise pollution can trigger the release of low levels of the fight-or-flight hormone. This can lead to chronic anxiety and even depression while elevating the risk of high blood pressure and other dangerous conditions. Open offices end up with almost two-thirds more sick days accumulated than those working with traditionally designed work spaces. Adding offce privacy booths not only help to improve the ability of workers to concentrate and communicate, but it also could prevent health problems that come with spending a lot of time in an open office. The New Agile Office Environment Out with the old and in with the new. In recognition of the serious problems encountered, both individually and collectively, in the open office environment, many companies have moved towards what is called the “agile office.” The agile office preserves the open space for potential collaboration envisioned by advocates. They can still meet, discuss and create as a team. It recognizes also that every employee will need to work in a quiet space where they can concentrate on projects, communications, or other work. One of the only groups who professed to like the open office concept was younger workers in the millennial generation. Even there, however, those with more introverted personalities needed places to work alone and escape the possibility of unwanted interactions. Office pods ensure that the dynamic qualities of open space do not impose themselves completely on those who need quiet time alone. In addition to blocking out noise, the closed door prevents employees from having their spaces randomly interrupted. Agile office environments also help organizations satisfy the needs of people who do not like a lot of social interaction, but would also not work well from home. Office Privacy Booths Cost Less Than Full Renovations With so many open offices now retooling and re-incorporating private spaces, there is an immediate need for low cost quality solutions. The office pod in most areas costs much less than renovating or finding a new work space with offices built in. The Zenbooth is fully sourced and manufactured in the USA and is renowned for its durable construction and ability to block out normal levels of office noise. It has ample LED lighting, a quiet fan for optimal air circulation, multiple charging ports for electronic devices, and an easy-to-operate sliding door. Zenbooth’s offers the best convergence of the needs of the modern office and the requirement to keep overhead costs as low as possible. Modern Phone Booths Are Much More Flexible Than Traditional Offices In addition to containing all the amenities needed, Zenbooth's also offers another important characteristic: flexibility. Despite their sturdy design, which incorporates genuine California hardwood, the weight of an office booth is not prohibitive. They may be easily disassembled and moved, or can even be moved while fully constructed. Portability ensures that office rearranging is much easier when it inevitably happens. They can also be easily moved to new facilities.

At this point in my career, I have supervised so many student teachers/interns that I cannot count them all. I was recently told that I am the most “experienced” supervisor in the local university program. And while having a student teacher can be an enormous help to you within the school setting, there are some keys to success that I have determined over the years. These are written in no particular order, but most of these ideas can be applied across ages and disciplines. Introduce Your Student Teacher to the School All student teachers have a lot of questions about their placement. Before they begin, I send them a document with good to know information: - My name, phone number, license #, and best way to reach me - The school’s address, phone number, and fax number - School rules and expectations - A map of the school - My expectations - Calendar of days off, meetings, other known events Introduce Your Student Teacher to the Staff It sounds obvious, but so many supervisors forget to introduce their intern to the staff as a whole. Before my student begins, I ask them to send me a photo of themselves and three interesting facts. Then on their first day in my school, I send a school-wide email to staff introducing my student teacher including his/her picture, three facts, and where they are studying. Other staff in the building begin greeting him/her from day one! Introduce Your Student Teacher to the Students Help your students to embrace the new adult in the room by treating your student teacher as a colleague. On the first day, help students practice their social skills by greeting the student intern by name, shaking hands, and saying something about themselves. Then treat your student teacher as a colleague: give them a name tag, post their picture outside of the door, write their name on the board, and include their name on your clip chart. Write Down Your Procedures Do you always begin teaching a certain way? Do you have a routine for lining up? How do you handle behavior? Write it all down. Some of these procedures can be written as a list (steps for lining up), whereas others need more of a flow chart (how to respond to escalating behavior). These are the papers that your students are going to go back to time after time. Instruct Your Student Teacher to Write Down the “A-Ha” Moments The process of student teaching is full of magical moments. Sadly, however, most of us no longer know what inspiration came out of that time because we never wrote it down. I strongly encourage my student teachers to keep a record of the light bulbs of inspiration that they come across each day. And because I want to be inspired as well, I have them share this information with me in a Google doc. Keep a Running List of Questions Many questions that I have for my student teachers, or they have for me, occur in the middle of instruction or meetings. It is not good timing to interrupt and ask. However, most of us are unable to remember the myriad of questions going through their heads during the school day. I ask my student interns to write down their questions whenever they arise on a Google doc. I check this document when I have time and then either type or orally respond to each question. Provide an Ongoing Narrative of Why When you have the time, explain to your student teachers what you are doing and why. Some interns may learn the routines but never understand the reasoning behind it. If you do things in a certain way, explain why that works best for you. For example, I recently explained to my student teacher why I use different tones of voice with different students. I want them to understand the rationale so that they can decide what will work best for them. Balance Positive Reinforcement and Recommendations Something that I always forget, if that even though my student teachers are adults, they often are very nervous about their skills. They want to make sure that they are “performing” well. When I observe my student teachers, I make a point of providing at least as many positives as I provide recommendations. This procedure helps boost their self-confidence as well as tells them specifically what procedures they did well. Give Time for Reflection When pockets of down time arise, ask your student teacher to reflect on the day. Having them talk out loud about what they saw or did can help them remember both what went well, and what questions they have. Celebrate their Time in Your Classroom When it Comes to an End There is nothing better than a party. Celebrate all that your student teacher has accomplished at the end of the term by getting students in on the action by making cards or taking class pictures. A poster or “yearbook” of memories is a nice way to compile the good-byes into one place. I like to bring in treats to celebrate the student teacher’s last day. Make them feel special and important. As the next generation of SLPs, they are special!

Alzheimer’s disease and senile dementia Some causative factors - Aluminium toxicity - B vitamin deficiency - Poor cerebral circulation. Recent studies have investigated the possibility that supplementation with choline or lecithin may be beneficial in Alzheimer’s and other psychiatric diseases where there may be a deficiency of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, since these nutrients are precursors to acetylcholine. Rosenberg GS et al: The use of cholinergic precursors in neuropsychiatric diseases. Am J Clin Nutr 36(4):709-20, 1982. Compared with controls, 17 Alzheimer’s disease patients had significantly lower plasma vitamin B1 levels. The authors conclude that currently used testing methods may be inadequate for such patients and point out that vitamin B1 deficiency can in itself impair cognitive function (rational thought processes). Gold M et al: Plasma and red blood cell thiamine deficiency in patients with dementia of the Alzheimer’s type. Arch Neurol 52(11):1081-6, 1995. Vitamin B1-dependent enzymes were found to be very low in the brain of patients with Alzheimer’s disease, indicating a vitamin B1 deficiency. Gibson GE et al: Reduced activities of thiamine-dependent enzymes in the brains and peripheral tissues of patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Arch Neurol 45(8):836-40, 1988. The neurological status of 11 patients with low vitamin B12 levels but without definite haematological signs of deficiency was examined. The patients displayed a variety of neurological problems, including depression, dementia, neuropathy and seizure disorder. Testing procedures and a trial of B12 therapy led to the conclusion that electrophysiological evidence of neurological impairment is often present even in patients without obvious clinical neurological abnormalities. Karnaze DS et al: Neurologic and evoked potential abnormalities in subtle cobalamin deficiency states, including deficiency without anemia and with normal absorption of free cobalamin. Arch Neurol 47(9):1008-12, 1990. Scores for mental performance were compared with levels of homocysteine (a marker of vitamin B12 deficiency) and serum levels of vitamins B6, B12 and folate, in 70 men aged 54-81. Lower levels of B12 and folate and higher levels of homocysteine were associated with poorer mental performance. Higher concentrations of vitamin B6 were related to better memory performance. Riggs KM et al: Relations of vitamin B-12, vitamin B-6, folate, and homocysteine to cognitive performance in the Normative Aging Study. Am J Clin Nutr 63(3):306-14, 1996. Promising nutritional research The effects of gingko biloba extract on mental performance were assessed in 72 outpatients with cerebral insufficiency. After 24 weeks there was a significant improvement in short-term memory and learning rate. Grassel E: Einfluss von Gingko-biloba-Extrakt auf die geistige computerisierten Messbedingungen bei Patienten mit Zerebralinsuffizienz. Fortschr Med 110(5):73-6, 1992. 216 patients with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia due to small blood clots were given either Ginkgo biloba extract or placebo. After 24 weeks there was a significant improvement in the Ginkgo biloba group compared with controls. Kanowski S et al: Proof of efficacy of the ginkgo biloba special extract EGb 761 in outpatients suffering from mild to moderate primary degenerative dementia of the Alzheimer type or multi-infarct dementia. Pharmacopsychiatry 29(2):47-56, 1996. In an analysis of 40 clinical trials using Ginkgo biloba against cerebral insufficiency, it was found that Ginkgo was an effective agent, as effective as the pharmaceutical agent co-dergocrine, used for the same indication. Kleijnen J et al: Ginkgo biloba for cerebral insufficiency. Br J Clin Pharmacol 34(4):352-8, 1992. Vitamin B12 levels were found to be significantly lower in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Alzheimer’s disease compared with blood clot-related dementia. Ikeda T et al: Vitamin B12 levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid of people with Alzheimer’s disease. Acta Psychiatr Scand 82(4):327-9, 1990. Patients with cerebral circulatory disease leading to intellectual deterioration, confusion and impaired memory and concentration experienced a significant improvement after treatment with 3-4 grams a day of the amino acid taurine by mouth for several weeks.

"Argo" has Toronto talking Oscar. Stephen Baldwin's legal battle over Kevin Costner's oil-cleanup technology takes another twist. James Cameron talks "Avatar 4." These stories and more are included in today's Evening Edition, a regular rundown of recent Hollywood headlines: AP (via Nola.com): "Argo" generating big buzz at Toronto. Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master" might have taken home an armload of trophies from the "scandalous" awards ceremony at the Venice Film Festival, but on this side of the Atlantic, Ben Affleck's based-on-real-events thriller is winning fans - and building Oscar momentum. "Argo" -- based on a real-life effort to free six Americans out of Iran at the height of the 1979 hostage crisis - debuted Friday (Sept. 7) at Toronto. It lands in theaters Oct. 12. Click through for more coverage of the first weekend of the festival, which marks the unofficial start to the movie-awards season. You can also check out The Wrap's first-weekend wrap-up, headlined: "The buzz is strong, but the films are dark." The Hollywood Reporter: Stephen Baldwin sues Kevin Costner's lawyer over BP oil-spill cleanup buyout. The latest twist in the serpentine case sees Baldwin and his business associate filing a $10 million suit against the lawyer who drafted the contracts that saw them on the outside looking in just as BP was signing onto a contract to use a cleanup technology developed by Costner in the 1990s. The details are dense, twisting and -- some would argue -- boring, so I'll leave the details in the capable hands of THR. Deadline.com: "Star Trek" sequel gets a title. It will be "Star Trek Into Darkness," according to an exceptionally short item -- as in two sentences -- posted today at Deadline. The J.J. Abrams-directed sequel, which wrapped earlier this year, is scheduled to land in theaters May 17. It will see all of the chief cast return from the first film, including Chris Pine as Capt. Kirk, Karl Urban as Bones, Zoe Saldana as Uhura, Anton Yelchin as Chekhov, Simon Pegg as Scotty, John Cho as Sulu and Zachary Quinto as Spock. Rumored to be new to the cast this time is Benedict Cumberbatch, as His Bare-chestedness, Khan - although that has yet to be confirmed. /Film: DreamWorks Animation reveals slate of 12 movies over the next four years. In what Deadline is characterizing as a "desperation move" to convince investors of the stability of the company's future, the list comes out hot on the heels of DreamWorks Animations' new distribution deal with Fox. Among the titles is a pair of "How to Train Your Dragon" films, another "Kung Fu Panda" sequel, a "Madagascar" spinoff and a whole bunch of first-time projects. The full list follows, arranged by release date. Click over to /Film for synopses of each: "The Croods" for March 22, 2013, "Turbo" for July 19, 2013 and "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" for November 1, 2013; "Me and My Shadow" for March 14, 2014, "How to Train Your Dragon 2" for June 20, 2014 and "Happy Smekday!" for November 26, 2014; "The Penguins of Madagascar" for March 27, 2015, "Trolls" (working title) for June 5, 2015, "B.O.O.: Bureau of Otherworldly Operations" for November 6, 2015 and "Mumbai Musical" (working title) for December 19, 2015; "Kung Fu Panda 3" for March 18, 2016 and "How to Train Your Dragon 3" for June 18, 2016. Indiewire: James Cameron says "Avatar 4" would be a prequel, with "Battle Angel" coming in four to five years. As the filmmaker makes the rounds to pump up the Blu-ray release of his 1997 Oscar-winner, "Titanic," he's proving that he's got his career pretty well mapped out for the foreseeable future. Starting with concurrent shoots for "Avatar 2" and "Avatar 3," it will be followed in "four or five years" by "Battle Angel" and, much later, a fourth "Avatar" that would serve as a prequel that goes "back to the early expeditions of Pandora, and kind of what went wrong with the humans and the Na'vi," Cameron is quoted as saying.

HRW on Syria: A Compilation of Rumors and Blog Posts Human Rights Watch (HRW) has been very active in issuing statements and what are presented as research reports on the Syrian uprising against the Assad regime. However, a close examination of these activities demonstrates that HRW has very little reliable information that is not already available from blogs and other sources in Syria. Furthermore, this organization repeated and highlighted at least once major and demonstrably false “eyewitness testimony” from a fictitious victim of attacks by the Assad regime. In addition to these factual flaws, HRW’s track record demonstrates that for most of the repressive regime’s existence, they devoted minimal attention to Syria, and only became active in protesting human rights violations after the uprising began. In recent reports, the recommendations for policy responses are weak and without significant penalties, in sharp contrast to HRW’s numerous campaigns targeting Israeli responses to terror attacks. On June 1 2011, HRW’s MENA (Middle East and North Africa) division published and promoted a 54-page report on the Syrian Security Forces attack on the Daraa governorate, headlined “We’ve Never Seen Such Horror.” This publication purports to recount numerous reports of torture, extrajudicial killing, and forced disappearances at the hands of the Syrian security forces. The report lists events following the mass protests in Syria in mid-March, and contains scattered references to the background situation (“a repressive police state ruled under an emergency law since 1963”) that inspired the protests. Like many other HRW publications dealing with events in the Middle East, this report lacks a credible methodology, many of the claims are unverifiable, and the lack of quality control is evident. According to HRW, “This report is based on more than 50 interviews with Daraa residents and several Jordanian nationals conducted in person and over the phone in April and May 2011…. Additional information was provided by Syrian activists who have been documenting the events.” However, most of the substantive footnote referring to the interviews state “name and place withheld.” An article in the Huffington Post blog reveals that some of the interviews were apparently conducted for HRW by Hani Hazaimeh, a reporter for the Jordan Times, who notes that the was hired by HRW on May 20, in the midst of the events in Syria. Hazaimeh apparently had no professional experience in human rights related work, and acknowledges his “personal conflict between passively listening and wanting to reach out to comfort those who have endured some of the worst human suffering I have ever heard.” While such identification with victims is understandable, Hazaimeh makes it clear that he had no means of verifying or assessing the credibility of the testimony. In at least one important example, HRW published and disseminated a hoax – specifically, the invented tale of a “Syrian lesbian” using the name Amina Abdallah. Kenneth Roth, HRW’s executive director, tweeted the story in the Guardian, adding “Syria blogger kidnapped by armed men. Had written on uprising, politics, being a lesbian.” Significantly and in contrast to HRW’s general lack of interest in the repressive nature of the Syria regime, the recent reports levels serious accusations, including long overdue accusations of crimes against humanity. The report on Daraa also marks the first time HRW has used the phrase “collective punishment” in the Syrian context. The “collective punishment” in Daraa, according to HRW, includes at least 418 deaths, extrajudicial execution of detainees, and indiscriminate firing at civilians by security services, as well as widespread accounts of torture and desecration of mosques.1 However, despite the evidence of major violations, HRW does not make substantial demands of the Syrian regime. The report does not call for extensive measures such as an arms embargo or comprehensive sanctions against the regime. Rather, HRW’s Middle East division asks that the Syrian government “carry out an independent and transparent investigation” of its own security forces and calls for the UN Security Council to “adopt targeted financial and travel sanctions on those officials responsible….” In HRW’s report previous report on Syria “A Wasted Decade” (July 16, 2010), which covered ten years of research on Syrian human rights violations in just 35 pages, the organization similarly recommended a limited response, directed exclusively to President Bashar al-Assad. He was urged to enact, amend, introduce, and remove a variety of laws, and to set up commissions. To alleviate restrictions on freedom of expression, HRW urged him to “stop blocking websites for their content.” In a contemporaneous op-ed article, “Syria’s decade of repression” (The Guardian, 16 July 2010), HRW researcher Nadim Houry concludes with gentle prodding of Assad: “his legacy will ultimately depend on whether he will act on the promises” of reform he made upon taking office. “Otherwise, he will merely be remembered for extending his father’s…government by repression.” HRW’s refusal to seriously challenge the Syrian regime prior to the current uprising, and its very limited attention to the regime’s repeated and systematic violations of human rights, illustrates the warped agenda of the organization’s Middle East and North Africa (MENA) division. NGO Monitor’s detailed analyses of the biases reflected in the activities of MENA’s director Sarah Leah Whitson and deputy director Joe Stork also highlight the contrast between the soft approach regarding the Syrian regime’s activities and the harsh and unjustified attacks disproportionately condemning Israeli responses to assaults on Israeli civilians. These ideological double standards were emphasized by HRW founder Robert Bernstein, who stated that the plight of the citizens of repressive Arab regimes “who would most benefit from the kind of attention a large and well-financed international human rights organization can provide is being ignored as Human Rights Watch’s Middle East division prepares report after report on Israel.” Similarly, in a magazine interview, an HRW board member admitted that “they go after Israel because it is like ‘low-hanging fruit’” – where it is easy, because of Israel’s open society, to generate reports on the conflict. However, the real tragedy is not the disproportionate focus and biased attacks on Israel. Rather, HRW’s inaction regarding Syria, and many other closed societies, is the abandonment of the citizens of these repressive regimes, and is a betrayal of the universal values HRW claims to uphold. - Regarding Syria, HRW defines the term as “punitive sanctions and harassment imposed on families or other targeted groups for actions that they themselves did not personally commit.” In contrast to this precise legal definition, HRW ideologically and inaccurately labels the blockade of Gaza “collective punishment”; similar blockades unrelated to Israel do not receive this label.

Leanne as she appears in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn |Game|| Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance,| Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn |Skills|| Canto, | |Known Relations|| Reyson (brother),| Lillia (sister - deceased) |Allegiance||Heron Family, Tibarn, Naesala| Leanne is the fourth princess of the royal Heron tribe. She is also the younger sister of Reyson and Rafiel, other Herons of the royal family. They are the children of Lorazieh, the king. Leanne was thought dead after the Serenes Massacre but is found deep within the forest and becomes a non-playable character in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, not playable until Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. She is unable to attack, but uses the powers of Galdrar to enable units to move twice. She is able to transform, but it only enhances her powers and increases her skill slightly. She has no counter attack, and cannot do any means of physical damage. She is a highly useful unit none the less, and serves as an important character to the story of both Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. Character Data Leanne is first encountered accidentally when Ike and the Crimean Liberation Army try to track down Oliver and Reyson. Leanne immediately feints upon seeing them and is placed on Ike's back - still fighting - when Oliver and his army attempt to take her as a hostage. In the following chapter, Tibarn, Ulki, Janaff and Reyson will arrive and escort Leanne back to Phoenicis where she is held under protection. The Black Knight eventually succeeds in kidnapping her to bring back to Ashnard who hopes she can release the Goddess of Chaos, even though she cannot. She is later rescued by Naesala and returns to Gallia with her brother, Reyson, when the game ends. Leanne is first seen in the chapter On Drifting Clouds, where she runs into Begnion Dracoknights who attempt to kidnap and sell her. She fortunately runs into Queen Elincia and Marcia who protect her and bring her back to the country's capitol, Melior. Leanne seeks to speak with Ike about the coming war between the Laguz Alliance and Begnion, but Elincia informs her that Ike is no where to be found. Leanne is not seen again until part three where she accompanies the bird tribes in the war. While her brothers fight in the endgame on opposing sides, Leanne attempts to seal the Goddess of Chaos away in the ever-so-glowing medallion. When Yune awakes and Ashera turns everyone to stone for their disobedience to her promise, Leanne joins the Silver Army on their march to the Tower of Guidance in hopes of stopping Ashera's final judgement which will ultimately clear the world of all living things. Leanne, like her brother Reyson, picked up on some traits of the hawks. She is much more emotionaly powerful in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, and is always watching out for the better of the people. She refuses to stay away from the battle; not because she likes fighting, but because she wants to aid the cause of bettering the world. Even when she is told to stay behind, she comes to do what she can. Leanne is primarily a very sweet girl who does her best to comfort her friends. Being a Heron, she has the ability to peer into others' hearts, which helps her with consoling other allied units throughout the Tellius Games. Base Stats |SKL||1 > 2||N/A||10%| |SPD||6 > 12||N/A||20%| |Class||Heron||DEF||2 > 4||N/A||10%| |Level||5||RES||11 > 22||N/A||40%| |Weapon Level||N/A: Cannot equip weapons||CON||5 > 9||N/A| |Inventory||Weight||2 > 6| Leanne is a Heron and will not be able to promote from her current state. Leanne, along with the rest of the Heron Tribe, can not equip any weapons. The only physical way for Leanne to inflict damage is to use a Reaper Card, which allows non-magic users to inflict magical damage on their enemies. This is hardly recommended due to her fragile state and low magic, though. Leanne instead uses the ancient song of Herons, Galdrar, to aid on the battle field. - In On Drifting Clouds, Leanne will automatically join your team. She will not be recruited again until Just Cause when she is playable for the chapter only. She will be back in chapter one, part four, where she assists Micaiah's group on their path towards the Tower of Guidance. Leanne, Part 2 Prologue No! Princess Leanne! There's nothing... I can do... Why couldn't I save you... Elincia, Part 2 Prologue Leanne! That's enough. Fall back. We can make do without your galdrar, but we need you alive. (My apologies, Sir Ike...)Leanne, Endgame Leanne's Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance Portrait.

One of the most pernicious and damaging lies, also one of the most pervasive, told by people to others and to themselves is: “It’s no use.” Variations on this falsehood include: “It doesn’t matter, anyway”; “Nothing I do makes any difference”; “I’ve tried everything and nothing works.” On a macro, societal level, this deceit runs something like this: “They are just going to do what they are going to do.” They – my mother knew “them” well and frequently referred to “them” – are the invisible movers and shakers of society. “They say”; “They always win”; “You know they aren’t going to let anything as reasonable as that happen.” On a political/governmental level, the lie expresses itself in terms like these: “I’m just one person. My vote doesn’t matter. My voice doesn’t make any difference. Nobody cares about the little guy.” The lie becomes more destructive as it filters down to the relationship level. The more intimate the relationship, the more damage the lie causes. How many marriages have ended badly after one party or the other began to say, “It’s no use. Nothing is ever going to change.” To say, “It’s no use,” is to rob a person, especially oneself, of hope and, when hope dies, so do relationships. The relationship between parent and child can suffer irreparable harm from the effects of this lie. When a child tells himself, “It’s no use. Nothing I do will ever please my parent,” the direction of that child’s life will change. When parents tell themselves, “It’s no use,” they are in danger of giving up on their God-given charge of loving, shaping, and sharing in their child’s life. A child’s relationship with a parent can survive many sins and rebellions, but it can be done in by the lie, “It’s no use.” The lie is, however, deadliest of all when spoken to oneself. To say, “It’s no use,” and believe it, makes addictions unbreakable and relationships irreconcilable. When a person tells himself, Lynyrd Skynyrd-style, “It’s no use. Lord knows I can’t change,” his life is headed toward chaos and ruin. A reader might object, “But in my case, it’s true: it really is no use.” That reader needs to understand that almost everyone, at one time or another, has believed the same thing and has been mistaken, so it is at least possible the demurring reader is also mistaken. The lie, “It’s no use,” draws its power, like all lies, from a false image of how things really are. In this case, the false image of a static reality which we are powerless to change. But the thing about reality is that it is woven of billions of threads (or “strings” or “membranes,” if you are a physicist), and the thread that is in our hand may unravel the way things are and remake them. Rosa Parks, for example, pulled one string on a bus in 1955 and America began to change. The Bible does not picture reality as static, as if it were the fixed stage on which we play our parts. Rather, the Bible pictures a reality that bends and adapts itself to the choices we make. As such, we have a God-given role, and the dignity that goes with it, to shape reality, including ourselves. We are not creators in the absolute sense that God is, but we are “sub-creators,” to use Dorothy Sayer’s term, with the momentous responsibility of cooperating with God in his construction project known as reality. That construction project includes, as our area of oversight, the completion of ourselves as individuals. This is done under God’s authority and in cooperation with him. God, as the Bible strikingly portrays him, is like a potter. If, for some reason, the piece he is working on does not take its intended shape – does not “cooperate” – God will shape it into some other useful piece. It is clear that God is flexible. He is willing – that is, he wills – to work with people. He allows them room to become themselves by making their own choices. So, to say, “It’s no use,” is both to abdicate one’s responsibility and repudiate God’s reliability. As long as God is in heaven and we are on earth, things can change.

Cardiff Blues have announced that five players have extended their contracts at the club, as Matthew Rees, Kirby Myhill, George Earle, James Down and Dan Fish have all signed new deals to stay at the Arms Park. Experienced hooker Rees was the only player who’s current deal was due to expire this summer, but after interest from Gloucester has put pen to paper and will play for another season at the Arms Park, It will be Smiler’s 17th season at the top level of the game, after making his debut for Pontypridd in 2001, and he has gone on to make over 300 appearances for Celtic Warriors, Scarlets and Cardiff Blues, as well as becoming the most capped Welsh hooker of all time. He joins the likes of Gethin Jenkins and Nick Williams as an experienced member of the squad renewing his contract, after a 2017/18 campaign that saw him make 16 starts in all competition, the joint most in his five years at the club. Despite being 37 years old now his scrummaging powers have not waned at all, and it is these which have secured him the Cardiff Blues number two jersey for much of this season ahead of Welsh international Kristian Dacey, as well as retaining his mobility around the field and a solid lineout throw. Attempting to do battle for that number two jersey will be Kirby Myhill, as the 26-year-old goes into his third season at the Arms Park next year. After a frustrating first campaign in Cardiff Blues colours saw injuries impede his attempts to make his mark on the first team, Myhill returned to the first team picture with 23 appearances in all competitions last year, proving a valuable squad member during the Six Nations period. The Wales U20 cap, who arrived from Scarlets where he graduated through the academy system, will now be hoping to put more pressure on Kris Dacey and Matthew Rees as the Cardiff Blues return to the Heineken Cup. Behind them, John Mulvihill has moved to secure the futures of two heavyweights in the second row as George Earle and James Down are retained to pack down at lock. Since arriving from Scarlets in 2016, South African-born Earle has been a mainstay in the pack when fit, with 36 appearances in all competitions across his two seasons at the Arms Park. Adding a physical presence at the set piece and breakdown, as well as being a keen ball carrier, Earle has at times had to single handedly add some abrasiveness to the Cardiff Blues side, often to the detriment of an ankle injury that keeps flaring up on the plastic surface at home. Hopefully, with lock an area that has been identified as needing recruitment, the 31-year-old’s game time can be managed over the next season and beyond, as his experience and leadership on the field, as well as his playing attributes, could be vital up against some big French and English forward packs. On the other hand, James Down has been a stalwart of the Cardiff Blues squad over the last 11 seasons after making his debut while still an academy player in 2006. The ultimate clubman, 30-year-old Down has made 231 combined appearances for Cardiff Blues and Cardiff RFC in the meantime, as well as spending a season at London Welsh in the Aviva Premiership in 2014/15. Despite finding playing opportunities limited in the last few months of last season, the 6ft7, 19st lock will be hoping to still make valuable contributions, as he did away at Toulouse this season, when called upon by John Mulvihill. Finally, the only back on the list of contract renewals is another club favourite, as Dan Fish will extend his time with his hometown team beyond the eight seasons he has currently spent at the Arms Park. After ripping his hamstring from the bone away to Connacht in November 2016, full-back Fish has only featured off the bench in two Anglo-Welsh Cup games for Cardiff Blues, instead spending time with Cardiff RFC last season for whom he played for 13 times in the Premiership. It has been a long and arduous road back to the first team for the 27-year-old, but the aim is now to get a full pre-season under his belt, and hopefully the man who few can understand will be able to add to his 97 appearances so far and reach the 100 club next season. For John Mulvihill, that now completes the process of player retention ahead of next season, and his focus now shifts to player recruitment, with announcements expected from Cardiff Blues in two or three weeks.

This article was originally written by Bill Haber and published in the July 1983 issue of The Trader Speaks On June 1, 1980 when Rube Marquard died, he represented the last survivor of the 358 major leaguers featured in T206. That is, with an asterisk. There remained one obstacle to be overcome until all those players could be accounted for. That one obstacle was Louis “Bull” Durham, major league pitcher from 1904 through 1909 who was featured in T206 as a member of the New York (Nat’l) Giants. As of 1969, there were ten players featured in T206 who were listed among the “missing”. With the help of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) based in Cooperstown, New York, nine of those ten players were found, or, to be specific, their unreported deaths were located. Through painstaking efforts on the part of SABR members, Rube Geyer, Heinie Batch, Jerry Freeman, Bill Graham, Jack McAleese, Pat Paige, Lee Quillen, Ike Rockenfield and John White were ultimately found. The Encyclopedia of Baseball states that Louis G. “Bull” Durham was born in Bolivar, New York in 1881 and was a brother of James Garfield “Jimmy” Durham, a pitcher-outfielder with the Chicago White Sox in 1902. Both facts ultimately proved incorrect. In reading newspaper accounts of the travels of Bull Durham during his baseball career, one would learn that he was married about 1907 and that he spent the winter of 1906-07 studying law in Geneva, Ohio. A marriage record could not be found, nor could any such learning institution located in or near Geneva, Ohio be located. Bull Durham enjoyed a long and extensive minor league career, and much was written about him between 1904 and 1913, but nothing of any substance could be learned about him until October of 1982. At that time, Ray Nemec of Naperville, Illinois located a note in a 1906 Pennsylvania newspaper indicating that Bull Durham’s correct name at birth was Charles Staub. This reference was reported to Al Kermisch of Alexandria, Virginia with whom the name Staub rang a bell. Al checked his extensive files of minor leaguers and found that our man’s correct name was actually Louis Staub, a righthanded pitcher he had traced through the 1900-02 seasons. Staub was last shown in the records of Al Kermisch to have been pitching at McSherrystown, Pennsylvania in August of 1902, so Al made an additional effort to turn up a note or two about him. It was in early January of 1983 when A1 turned up the note which proved most significant. A newspaper item had indicated that Staub was born in New Oxford, Pennsylvania in 1879. Upon learning this, a check was made of the current New Oxford telephone directory, only to find nearly one column of Staubs. A call was placed to three such numbers, strictly at random. The third of the three was able to refer the caller to a woman in York, Pennsylvania who has compiled a genealogical study of all the Staubs of southeastern Pennsylvania dating back to the 1700’s. A call to this woman resulted in the learning of Staub’s correct birth data. He was born Louis Raphael Staub in New Oxford, Pennsylvania, June 27, 1877, the eighth of nine children. Subsequent efforts resulted in the locating of two daughters of the ballplayer. They reported that their father died in Bentley, Kansas, June 28, 1960, one day after his 83rd birthday. He had changed his name to Louis Staub Durham in late-1902, and continued to use the pseudonym for the rest of his life. When asked the reason why Mr. Staub chose the name “Bull Durham” upon deciding to change his name, the two daughters were of the opinion that their father had taken a liking to the smoking tobacco of the day. What they didn’t know was that he was a teammate of Jimmy Durham at Cedar Rapids in 1902 and the two had developed a close friendship. They were also teammates at Louisville in 1907 and were pictured alongside one another on the Louisville team photo. They also didn’t know that their father, upon settling in Kansas in 1926, chose to live the rest of his life in Jimmy’s home state. And, they didn’t know that their father’s early occupation of being a patent medicine specialist was closely related to Jimmy’s occupation of pharmacist. Is it possible that Bull worked for Jimmy in some capacity during the years? And, did he idolize Jimmy enough to honor him by adopting his surname? These questions probably will never be answered. However, it’s nice to know that the T206 series can now rest in peace. Ed. Note: According to Durham/Staub’s Wikipedia entry, “After he began playing minor league baseball he got into trouble with the league due to a fight in a bar. He was banned, but found a loophole by changing his name to “Bull Durham”. Once he finished his baseball career in 1909, he began acting and had roles in several silent films. He died in Bentley, Kansas.”

Don’t Let Your Staffing Firm Fall Victim to these Common Website Mistakes Your company website is an essential part of your staffing firm’s branding and marketing efforts. Before contacting your sales team and recruiters, potential clients and candidates are most likely checking out your firm online. Thanks to the Internet, potential candidates and clients are able to access information about the history of your staffing firm, how satisfied current and former clients and candidates are with your services, and your track record in the industry. Hopefully your staffing firm’s website is one of the first resources reviewed; therefore, be sure to make it an interactive, easy-to-use site. Potential clients and candidates are going to use your website as a gauge of your level of expertise, so impress them right from the start and avoid these common website mistakes. Ineffective Website Homepage Your website’s homepage is the first impression users get about your organization and your first opportunity to communicate your brand. Is it confusing, overwhelming, too generic, or not stimulating enough? Too many images tend to bog down the page loading time; however, not using any photos or videos makes for a text-heavy page. Experiment with finding the right balance and ensuring loading times are optimized across your site’s pages. Your website Home landing page must make it easy for potential candidates to access current job postings, understand what the next steps are in the staffing process, and allow people to easily contact your company. There are many different staffing firms to choose from, so make sure your homepage differentiates you from the rest of the industry and grabs the attention of your potential customers enough to make them stick around and find out more about your staffing firm. Not Designing to Your Target Audience Trying to use a “one size fits all” website or hiring a website designer based on who is the least expensive is another common staffing firm website mistake. Website developers and website design software packages are capable of creating the basic layout, but it is important to incorporate essential marketing elements into the overall design. Your staffing firm’s website must speak to your target audience and your goal is to deliver the best possible experience for them when they reach your site. Once you identify your ideal clients and know what type of candidates they are looking to hire, you are better able to design your website to appeal to those individuals. Are you an agency specializing in clinical contract consultants? Do you only place consultants within the IT industry? In order for your website to appeal to your target audience, the language used, graphic images, and overall approach must be consistent with the industry you are hoping to attract. Outdated Job Postings Once users have landed on your Careers page, what do they see? If the answer is outdated job listings then you have fallen victim to yet another common staffing firm website mistake. All job descriptions must provide accurate information, be clearly written with no typos, and be immediately removed from your site once the position has been filled. Is your career site integrated with your ATS? It should be. Potential candidates who go through the trouble of applying for a position just to find out it is no longer available are bound to be frustrated with your staffing firm. Your Careers page must be easy to navigate and provide candidates the ability to filter positions based on preferred geographical location or area of expertise. It is also essential that candidates receive prompt feedback from your recruiting team to show that your organization is responsive to a candidate’s needs. Unresponsive or Responsive Site Nobody enjoys having to scroll back and forth just to read one line of text on their smartphone. Conversely, potential clients and candidates accessing the internet on their 80 inch Smart TV want the text on your website to be easy to read. Not designing a responsive platform for all devices is a common staffing firm website mistake. Make sure your site is easy to navigate and communicates to users that your staffing firm is innovative, not outdated. Design a customized hiring application that allows users to easily apply from their mobile phone or tablet. A responsive website ensures you are providing an optimal experience for all users, regardless of whether they are accessing your site from their smartphone, tablet, desktop, or Smart TV. Lack of Relevant, Valuable Content Potential candidates are looking to your team for guidance on how to effectively market themselves to your clients. Does your website provide valuable career resources or was it only designed to post available jobs? If your content is static and outdated, your company is also going to be perceived as outdated. News and announcements pages provide your website with dynamic content, as do company blogs. Updating these pages on a regular basis helps to drive visitors to your website and increase your SEO. Providing useful, downloadable content is attractive to potential job candidates and also provides your recruiters with valuable lead information. - A confusing or ineffective website homepage is a turn-off to potential candidates and clients - Using a generic website layout rather than designing to your target audience - Failing to keep your Careers page current is a major mistake in the recruiting industry - Not designing a responsive site that is compatible across all devices - Forgetting to include relevant, valuable career information for potential candidates About S.J.Hemley Marketing S.J.Hemley Marketing is a marketing and sales consulting firm focused on driving tangible results for professional services firms.

This portion of the "teaching" I'm discussing in this essay is a minute long. Her "teaching" in its entirety is longer, about 4 min. The original video I'd included which the transcription is from, has been deleted by Moore. Most copies of it I have been able to find online are marked "not available." I found that I had downloaded a copy from someone on Youtube who included some verses along with an inter-title caption. His video started a few seconds after the original one, so that is why there are a few sentences of a transcription that don't appear on the video. Transcription: "... to beg to differ with people that are ten times smarter than I am. But I want to say to you I see something different than that. I see God doing something huge in the body of Christ. I do not know why I have had the privilege to get to travel around, see one church after another...one group of believers after another, interdenominationally, all over this country, but I have gotten to see something that I think is huge. And I'll also suggest to you I am not the only one. And tonight I'm going to do my absolute best to illustrate to you something that God showed me out on that back porch. He put a picture...I've explained to you before I am a very visual person...so He speaks to me very often of putting a picture in my head. And it was as if I was raised up looking down on a community, as I saw the church in that particular dimension- certainly not all dimensions, not even in many, but in what we will discuss tonight, the church, as Jesus sees it, in a particular dimension." Do you know how crazy this sounds? Do you know how wrong this is? Do you know the danger you are in if you believe her? I had seen that clip of her saying Jesus took her up and showed her the world in HIS dimension a few days ago. I was impacted greatly by it: horrified, aghast, astounded would be words to describe my thoughts and feelings when I heard that from Mrs Moore... and days later I am still feeling that way. She literally said that God somehow mentally or emotionally or spiritually (Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know) took her into a dimension above the world to show her how Jesus sees His bride, effectively saying she was seeing thru Jesus eyes. Didn't satan do that to Jesus, take Him up and show to Him all the world's kingdoms? (Mt 4:8) Didn't the Lord lift up Paul and show Him things, but which no man is permitted to tell? (2 Cor 12:4). Apparently women are, though. Is Mrs Moore more special than Paul? Has God changed His mind on permissions since then? The only conclusion I can make is that God changed His mind on the lifting up and the telling, or it is satan showing her these things. You can guess which one of these two I believe. The rampant problem of Christians who teach and preach that personal visitations from God are the normative experience are actually chipping away at the foundational truths from the bible which is the ONLY revelation now. (Hebrews 1:1-2) Yes, God can do what He wants, and He can give revelation, but is He behind personal visitations and whispers and visions? That is the question. I believe the answer is no. He has said that currently He wants us to know Him through Jesus, who is the Word and His word is found in the bible. I go back to Hebrews 1, and also Revelation 22;18,"warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book." Revelation is the last book and with that admonishment, the canon closed. There is no new "seeing thru Jesus eyes" to be gained. It is all in the bible. What Mrs Moore is saying is that God gave her a special revelation that is apart from the bible and subsequently she is here to teach us about it. If we accept that we have authoritative word from the bible, PLUS Mrs Moore's visions, PLUS Bill Hybels' whispers, PLUS Colton Burpo's visit to heaven, PLUS Mary K Baker's visit to hell...where does it end? I say to one and all it ended at Revelation 22. You can read about it more here at MacArthur's site, "Does God still give revelation?" The canon of scripture is closed. I do not believe Jesus is continuing to give authoritative revelation, and certainly none that we accept as a "teaching" about His church From GotQuestions about the canon: "The acquisition of knowledge regarding such things as the true nature of God, the origin of the universe and life, the purpose and meaning of life, the wonders of salvation, and future events (including the destiny of mankind) are beyond the natural observational and scientific capacity of mankind. The already-delivered Word of God, valued and personally applied by Christians for centuries, is sufficient to explain to us everything we need to know of Christ (John 5:18; Acts 18:28; Galatians 3:22; 2 Timothy 3:15) and to teach us, correct us, and instruct us into all righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16)." I reject Mrs Moore's claims of being raised up to see the church in another dimension as Jesus sees it. We don't need to listen to individuals who say they have had a vision of being lifted up into His dimension, when Jesus came into OUR dimension to tell us, all of us. I'm grieved daily that people increasingly show us by their acceptance of heaping up these teachers who tickle the ears that His intrusion into our dimension was not enough. Now we must go to His, and come back and tell. This is what I mean by the current belief in the bible's insufficiency. God does have a vision for His church and that vision is contained in the bible. Listening to one person's extra-biblical revelations about what God showed her and her alone, and through Jesus's eyes no less, is dangerous in the extreme. I see these things being said from people within what was once a conservative denomination, and I see and hear others even in churches around me here in GA saying similar, and I wonder, 'have they all gone mad??' but the answer is yes, I fear. It is as though as the Lord lifts His hand in ending the Church Age, the delusion that will come upon the whole world is infiltrating even now (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12). The Lord in His power directs every atom, every person, every angel, every demon, and every animal on earth (and in heaven). He created all ...

President, John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Deborah RutterKnown for emphasizing collaboration, innovation, and community engagement, Kennedy Center President Deborah F. Rutter is considered one of the most influential arts administrators in the nation. As president of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Ms. Rutter is the artistic and administrative director of the world’s busiest performing arts center, managing all facets of the facility, including expansive theater, contemporary dance, ballet, chamber music, and jazz seasons as well as its affiliates the National Symphony Orchestra and Washington National Opera. The Center encompasses one of the nation’s largest arts education programs, reaching millions of people of all ages each year, and includes VSA, the international organization on arts and disability. Deborah F. Rutter became president of the Kennedy Center on September 1, 2014, the third person to serve in this capacity, following Michael M. Kaiser (2001-2014) and Lawrence Wilker (1991-2001). From August 2003 through June 2014, she served as president of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association (CSOA), employing her dynamic influence to further enhance the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s reputation as one of the world’s most highly acclaimed orchestras. As CSOA president, Ms. Rutter oversaw the operations of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO), Symphony Center Presents, the Institute for Learning, Access and Training (including the Civic Orchestra of Chicago), and the Chicago Symphony Chorus. The management of the renowned Symphony Center facility, and its extensive presentations of chamber music, jazz, and eclectic performances from around the world, was also under her direction. The appointment of the legendary conductor Maestro Riccardo Muti as the CSO’s 10th music director and renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma as the first Judson and Joyce Green Creative Consultant are two of the key highlights demonstrative of Rutter’s leadership in Chicago. In collaboration, they ushered in a new era of exceptional artistry and unprecedented musical outreach by the CSOA. At the same time, the CSO experienced record-breaking fundraising and ticket sales along with critical acclaim. Working with the CSO’s board of trustees, Rutter helped reinvigorate educational programming in 2008 by establishing the Institute for Learning, Access and Training, which engaged more than 200,000 people (with primary emphasis on ages 3 to 30) across the broadest possible socioeconomic and ethnic spectrum each year. In 2011, the Institute launched its Citizen Musician initiative, which seeks to sustain and expand the role of music making in civic and cultural life. Also under Rutter’s leadership, the CSOA was an innovator in programming, adding concert series, mounting citywide musical celebrations, resuming the Orchestra’s weekly syndicated radio broadcasts on WFMT-FM, and establishing its own recording label, CSO Resound. Prior to joining the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Rutter was executive director of the Seattle Symphony, a position she held from November 1992 until 2003. Despite having a deficit when she joined, when Rutter departed for the CSOA, the Seattle Symphony had nearly tripled its annual budget to $25 million, had no accumulated deficit, and the endowment had grown six- fold to $24 million. During her tenure in Seattle, a new facility, Benaroya Hall, with two concert venues and an educational facility called Soundbridge, were built and are thriving today. Under her watch, programming grew exponentially including city-wide musical festivals, a presenting program which included a wide range of performances, and other community engagement activities. From 1986 to 1992, she served as executive director of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, and prior to that she was the orchestra manager of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. Ms. Rutter’s ardent support of contemporary composers is evident in the creation of composer residencies at the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra and Seattle Symphony Orchestra. Her belief in and support of composers continued during her time in Chicago as she forged relationships with Pierre Boulez, Mason Bates, Anna Clyne, and others. Rutter has been involved in a number of national and local cultural organizations and was a member of the board of Arts Alliance Illinois, Chicago’s Grant Park Conservancy, the Solti Foundation, After School Matters, the Cultural Advisory Council for the City of Chicago, the Association of California Symphony Orchestras, and the prestigious Curtis Institute Board of Overseers. She was a board member and president of the Washington State Arts Alliance Board of Directors and chaired the Policy Committee for the League of American Orchestras. Rutter is a graduate of Stanford University and holds an MBA from the University of Southern California. She was born in Pennsylvania and grew up in the Los Angeles area. She studied piano and violin from an early age, and she played violin with orchestras throughout her education.

ALRIGHT o(≧▽≦)o, If you're my loyal reader (*slapped) you should know that I prefer medium coverage foundation than high coverage foundation. I always love natural finish even though the foundation can't covers all my flaws. I don't want my skin look like mask or wearing tons of foundation and powder. I would look so horrible under sun light @_@ and whatever light, lol. So, I decided to buy Candy Doll foundation and powder last month to try. I still have my SANA foundation and loose powder >_<, but I wanted to try Candy doll so badly. Hahaha, so when I got money from my beloved ad I couldn't help it. Kekeke, ordered it without second thought. Is Candy Doll really worth the money? (Sorry, this will be a long post xD) First, let's talk about the packaging. First impression of the overall packaging is KAWAII~~~ヽ(*≧ω≦)ノ I love the pink-purple box so much~~ Japanese packaging always so interesting and unique! The foundation bottle is really thin, it's made from a plastic not glasses like SANA foundation. I think it look cheap (゚ε゚ ), but the pink cap is make it look better. lol. The good part about plastic, you don't need to worry if they fall~! XD I love how they put the font inside the vertical black stripes. The candy vector is super cute too~~! Cute! But how they put the purple font over the white-black stripes is disturb me. LOL @_@ . The box is really interesting to open, hahahaha because it's really different from other powder packaging I had before. kekekek I think the powder container is super small just like the foundation! Hahahaha, I wish it bigger (´Д`)! I love the material of this powder, it's not too plastic and not made from glasses so it doesn't heavy. I always accidentally drop things whenever I do my make up, but I don't need to worry about this. But, I still don't like that purple font over that black-white stripes (/゚Д゚)/, lol As you can see, it comes with a puff inside with ordinary black satin above it. Thanks the puff is soo soft and fluffy~ hohoho They sealed the hole so the packaging won't become messy. I personally think the shade is bit yellow ( ̄へ ̄). I was a little worried before applied it on my face. I don't want my face look like orang sakit kuning (︶︹︺) . Let's see the swatch on my hand first. ✩ Liquid texture, not too thick and not too watery. ✩ I got shade 01 and I think it's a bit yellow for my skin. ✩ Easy to spread and blend. ✩ Small particles, really soft and smooth. ✩ Shade 01, same like the foundation. A bit yellow for my skin. Now on my face, this my bare skin so you can see the before and after clearer. (right click+new tab, if you want to see it from closer). Acne scars, acne, dark spots, big pores, etc. (I think my cam setting is too bright, lol) (;¬д¬) I applied it only on my right side face. See the foundation is really bit yellow for me, hahhahah. I really love this foundation texture because it's not HEAVY and easy to blend with my fingers, hehehe. After use the foundation, it covers my pores and scars really well. Makes my skin look smoother. It neutralize my red skin appearance. It has a soft matte result, so my skin isn't look shiny in the picture. My before side is look shiny because I haven't put any foundation. Just skin care and SANA pore putty. Please don't expect it can completely covers my scars because it won't (¬、¬). This foundation has medium coverage and natural finish. After put foundation on both sides, I forgot to capture picture because I completely forgot. HAHA, I'm to busy dolled up my self that time, kekekek (`ー´). Don't worry, this is the after picture after make up. The picture size is more than 2000 pixels so open it in new tab if you want to see the result. omg, I look so weird here, please bear with it. ( ゚ Д゚) I didn't edit my skin photos in this post. hahahhah check out by your self~ ( ꒪Д꒪)ノ After make up, the foundation and powder is blended onto my skin. It matched my skin tone now after few minutes. Yeay~! If you're wondering what circle lens and lipstick I use, I was using Princess Mimi Almond Brown and Revlon Lip butter in Sweet Tart (plus a lipgloss from Opera). I was going to eat with my sister for 3 hours, ahahah yeah we always eat so slowly. I was sweating because korean food always HOT and SPICY, but not all of them ne~ I was afraid because whenever Im sweating, usually a new acne appear. wtf I wiped my face from sweats and thought probably my make up is already washed-out. Lol After went home, I was bring Happi for walk around. Poor him, it's been sometimes I didn't bring hime around for walk. He looked so happy~ And yeah, I was sweating again. Then I went to my room and looked at my skin in front of the mirror. Hurry captured it so I won't forget again, hahaha. Lipstick is complety gone, face look a bit tired. Lol *lame (I think that because of my pale lips). I think my skin is look fine, my make up wasnt completely gone. But yeah it looked a bit washed out, especially on my chin! The foundation and powder stay quite well~ I didn't expect it would has a good staying power though. lol CANDY DOLL FOUNDATION ♔ LIKE ♔ ✩ The foundation texture is easy to blend, milky and has a medium coverage ✩ Natural finish ✩ Not cakey ✩ Blended on my skin and match my skin tone after few minutes ✩ Can use it everyday ✩ Not make me breakout ✩ Has good staying power despite of the medium coverage ♔ DISLIKE ♔ ✩ The shade is too yellow for me ✩ Hard to get in Indonesia Rating : 4.5/5 I love this foundation~ If it's not because of the yellowish shade, I'll love it eveeen moreee. Hahaha. The texture is gentle and soft, it blends easily and evenly onto my skin. I only use a fingers, so if you a newbie to make up you probably will love this foundation~ Price : US$ 20.40 You can get this product at sasa This foundation is contains UV protecting agent that are able to protect my skin from day to day UV rays. Is that true? My look that day, lol CANDY DOLL Mineral Powder ♔ LIKE ♔ ✩ Soft texture ✩ Micro particles so it can covers my pores perfectly ✩ Smooth and natural finish ✩ Comes with a puff ♔ DISLIKE ♔ ✩ Shade too yellow ✩ Hard to get in Indonesia Rating : 4.25/5 Smooth and natural finish!
