After a dramatic ending to last season's Teen Mom OG reunion special, Maci Bookout opened up about her relationship with Ryan Edwards' family.
Teen Mom OG fans watched as Maci and her husband Taylor McKinney faced off against Ryan Edwards' parents, Jen and Larry, during the reunion.
Things got so heated that Maci and Taylor ended up storming off the set when Taylor and Larry nearly got into a physical altercation on stage.
Ryan, his wife Mackenzie, and his parents Jen and Larry were fired by MTV in March 2021 and are no longer part of the Teen Mom OG cast.
Maci Bookout talks about her relationship with Ryan Edwards' family since their firing
Now, Maci has opened up to E! News about where her relationships stand with Ryan's family since the dramatic ending to the reunion.
"Right now, we honestly don't have any real communication or relationship with them," Maci revealed.
"As far as Jen and Larry go, I'm not sure if that will change or will not change. I just know how I feel. I don't want it to be forced," the 30-year-old mom of three added.
A post shared by Maci Bookout McKinney (@macideshanebookout)
When it comes to her interaction with Jen and Larry, Maci admitted that she is willing to repair their relationship, as long as it's organic.
"I don't want to force everyone to just move on and get over it. I think if it works out and everyone feels okay and right about mending the relationship, then I'm all for that," Maci admitted.
Maci said that only time will tell what will become of their relationship and that she's only looking for genuine interactions with the Edwards family.
"I just don't want it to be something that is forced or unnatural because I just don't think you build solid relationships or mend solid relationships if it's not genuine. We'll see," Maci said.
In the meantime, Maci is focusing on her marriage to Taylor and raising their three kids. Maci shares son Bentley, 12, with Ryan Edwards, and she and Taylor share daughter Jayde, 6, and son Maverick, 5.
Maci is focusing on her marriage to Taylor and raising their kids
Speaking of her and Taylor being outnumbered by their kids, Maci told E! News, "There's three of them and only two of us. There's a lot of divide and conquer where we're just so busy and taking all the kids to all their things that by the time we get home, it's pretty much the first time we've been able to be in the same room for the day."
Maci admitted that she and Taylor are trying to find ways to stay connected, despite busy schedules that keep them miles apart at times.
"We're really just looking for help on navigating this chapter or this stage of our marriage in life and how to find ways to stay connected even when we're all over the place and in different areas of the city and sometimes even different states," Maci stated.
"We just don't want to look back in five years or 10 years and be like, 'Man, we really did not put any effort into continuing to like, get to know each other as the people that we're becoming and stuff like that.'"
"Don't be scared, but I feel like it's something that a lot of people experience in their relationships, especially if you're outnumbered by your children."
Maci put her family's health at the top of the list of things for which she's thankful and told the outlet, "I would definitely say with everything that's going on in the last year and a half, I am most grateful for my family and my health. You can't buy healthiness."
"There are things that money can't buy and I seem to have a lot of things that money can't buy. I'm just really blessed. I am just very thankful for my family and our health because it's crazy times right now."
Teen Mom OG fans can tune in tonight for an all-new season and catch up with Maci's storyline for the first time without Ryan and his family.
Teen Mom OG returns Tuesday, September 7 at 8/7c on MTV.


Craftsman has a pretty cool YouTube channel where they showcase their tools being put though all kinds of torture and destruction. These videos are not only fun to watch, but they do a good job of demonstrating that the tools can handle a good amount of abuse.
In their latest video, Craftsman shows their artistic side by making the destruction you hear everyday into music. They teamed up with music producer Kutiman to compose all that beating, sawing, cutting, grinding, hammering, chopping, etc. into music to our ears. No musical instruments were used in the making of this video, everything you hear is a tool of some kind. My favorite instrument in the video is the water sprinkler.

Android P is coming fast, with the developer preview already out, and we expect to know more about the confectionary-based name of the coming Android operating system upgrade during a keynote at Google I/O 2018.
Android has been released numerically and alphabetically ever since Android 1.5, or Cupcake. Since then, along with the numerical increment, there's been a name; a tasty sweet-treat that leaves enthusiasts (and journalists!) everywhere just a little hungry.
So what will Android P be named? There's not a completely obvious P dessert, sweet, or candy that leaps out to make a claim. History tells us Google isn't afraid to cross-license a popular snack, which they did for both Android 4.4 (KitKat) and Android 8.0 (Oreo), but even then, the choices are not easy. And we think Android (Reece's) Pieces is just a bridge too far.
The winner is … Android Peppermint!
Android Peppermint was a clear standout across all three votes. YouTubers gave Peppermint a fresh 46 percent of the vote, whereas Twitter fans were a little more divided, only giving Peppermint 31 percent. The battle for second was very tight, but Pancake managed to hold second in all three polls, just ahead of Popsicle and Pie, with opinion split over the better option for third or fourth.
We bundled everything we could think of for pie (Pecan, Pumpkin, Pineapple, Peach…) but at least one comment pointed out that Pineapple might not be exactly what Google will be going for. Anyone else remember when Key Lime Pie was going to be Android 4.4's name given that Kitkat would need licensing?
Spare a thought for Parfait, too, the clear loser on the day. Despite being one of the great versatile desserts, it managed just 3 percent of votes in the two polls that had it. The next time you're craving a multi-alternate-icecream-custard-syrup-fruit dessert, you'll be sorry!
But the winner Android Peppermint was our top performer, even if the comments told us just how many options Google have up their sleeve – from regional specialties like Australia/New Zealand's Pavlova to a sub-continental sweet dish in Pongal.
That second guy has a point. Quince? …Quality Street? The options are few!
Thanks for voting, and keep your eyes out for when Android P does launch in case you were right, and need to let everyone know!

Q: How to evaluate sequence of pure functions in Clojure My question is pretty similar to this one: How to evaluate a sequence of impure functions in Clojure? but instead of impure functions, how can I evaluate sequence of pure functions and get the results as another sequence?
Let's assume we have a vector of functions like:
[#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")]

And we need an output like this:
("ab" "cd" "ef")

I've tried something similar to this:
(map eval [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")])

but it just returns a vector of function references.

A: There are multiple ways to do what you are asking. It depends on whether you want a lazy sequence or not (you probably want lazy given there are no side-effects, but you might want no-lazy if there's an intensive computation that you want to cache), or if you want a vector as output (the same as your input). I'll try to follow what you tried to do.
Your map with eval is doing the following with each fn:
user=> (eval #(str 1))
#<user$eval1332$fn__1333 user$eval1332$fn__1333@38747597>

But you want something like the following:
user=> (eval (#(str 1)))
"1"

You want eval to have the fn applied, that is: the fn should be the first element of a list. Let's put it in a list:
user=> (map (comp eval list) [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")])
("ab" "cd" "ef")

Cool. But instead of eval, you probably want to use apply:
user=> (apply #(str 1))
; ArityException Wrong number of args (1)

Ups! It failed. apply doesn't have a 0-arity overload, but we can pass an empty list:
user=> (apply #(str 1) ())
"1"

Much better. Let's do it with map:
user=> (map #(apply % ()) [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")])
("ab" "cd" "ef")

Or better yet, given your functions receive no arguments, you'd better do as suggested by @Magos:
user=> (map #(%) [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")])
("ab" "cd" "ef")

A: You could use (fn [f] (f)) or #(%) in your map.

A: eval evaluates a Clojure form (i.e., a list containing "code").  You have functions, not forms.
You map with apply, but apply takes both a function and a seq of arguments.  Since you have no arguments, you can use the empty vector:
(map apply
     [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")]
     (repeat []))

But it would be shorter and probably clearer if you use for:
(for [f [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")]]
  (f))

A: Note
As Nathan Davis wrote, eval evaluates a clojure form:
(eval '(+ 1 1)) ;=> 2

What does it do to a function? Nothing!. eval treats functions as literals:
((eval +) 1 1) ;=> 2

For your case:
(def stuff [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")])

... we have
(= stuff (map eval stuff)) ;=> true

Though
(= [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")]
   (map eval [#(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f")]))
;=> false

... since the corresponding functions are different objects, though identical in operation.
That's why eval is useless to you. So follow Magos's advice.

A: Maybe it's worth to have a look at pcalls and/or pvalues
(pcalls #(str "a" "b") #(str "c" "d") #(str "e" "f"))
;=> ("ab" "cd" "ef")

Please note that pcalls is using future inside!

Usually, when you think about agriculture, you think about rural areas. But in recent years, it has become a common thing for people to practice urban agriculture; which means that some people grow plants and raise animals within and around cities. Not many people are aware of the impact that urban agriculture has on our planet and how it improves our lives. Therefore, in this article, we'll discuss why urban agriculture is the key to a sustainable future.
The main reason why urban agriculture is very important in today's society is because of its contribution to food security and push towards healthy nutrition. Lots of people in urban areas can't access healthy food at all times, especially when it comes to overcrowded cities. And just to give you an idea about why this is happening, consider the fact that around 50% of the poor in developing countries live in urban areas. Very often, there are not enough opportunities for everybody in a single city to have a regular income, therefore, access to food is irregular and sometimes almost nonexistent.
This is how food security issues have appeared in cities, which is not the case in rural areas where agriculture is omnipresent and offers people easy access to food. This is where urban agriculture becomes a solution to a real-world problem. First of all, if more and more people start growing food in urban areas, more people have access to it, as you don't actually need to pay to ship it from rural areas. Second of all, the quality of that food will be considerably better, given the fact that people who eat imported food from rural areas don't benefit from the same quality of food as the providers do, even if they're both part of the same social class.
In most developing cities, there are more and more companies and industries who produce tons and tons of wastewater and organic waste. So, obviously, the disposal of waste is a huge problem in cities all over the world. Due to the fact that most of the time people can't find a better solution, they dispose of their waste wherever they please, all around the city; something that can cause huge environmental and health problems for the inhabitants.
A great way to start approaching this issue, and maybe even work towards its eradication, is to involve urban agriculture. The way it could work is by using all the waste in order to produce compost, which can be very helpful for urban agriculture. Using compost makes it possible to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers, which are very bad for the environment. Just think about the contamination of groundwater!
Also, if we think about all the wastewater in a city and what to do with it, we figure out that it can be of great use for the farmers who need to constantly irrigate their farms. Even though it might not seem like a brilliant idea, it actually is, because wastewater contains lots of beneficial nutrients for the soil. More so, an initiative such as compost-making is a great opportunity to provide income for the less fortunate people who live in urban areas.
In order to further prove that urban agriculture is the key to a sustainable future, we can discuss the benefits that it could have when it comes to going green and cleaning the city. One of the major contributing factors that negatively impact the quality of air in urban areas is undoubtedly the lack of green spaces and foliage. Urban agriculture takes this into account by improving the air quality around the city, offering more and more green zones and positively impacting the micro-climate.
In lots of cities around the world, even in overcrowded ones, you can always find vacant land or very affected open spaces where there used to be a building or something similar. Those places are usually turned into huge city dumpsters and are highly associated with crime and classified as danger zones. It's sad to think about the negative impact that those places have on the environment and how their potential is being wasted. If we take initiative, not only we can turn these zones into productive green areas, but we can also help people around them enjoy a cleaner environment and a healthier lifestyle.
For the longest time, agriculture has been associated with rural areas. But due to the continuous evolution of the human race and the technological revolution, our societies and communities have changed; and in order for them to keep thriving, we need to integrate urban agriculture in the equation. Not only can we hope to eradicate the food security issue, which currently is a real-world problem, but we can offer people who live in urban areas the chance to buy and consume much healthier products. At the same time, if we think about the environmental impact and the idea of having a sustainable future, urban agriculture is a key factor, as it benefits the climate, the quality of air, the number of green zones and the people in urban areas.

Keiji Muto Grand Final Pro-Wrestling "Last Love" fue un evento de lucha libre profesional realizado por la marca Pro Wrestling NOAH de la empresa CyberFight. Tuvo lugar el 21 de febrero de 2023 en el Tokyo Dome en Tokio, Japón.

El evento contó con la participación de luchadores de las empresas aliadas Pro Wrestling Noah, DDT Pro-Wrestling y Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling. También contó con luchadores pertenecientes a otras empresas japonesas como New Japan Pro Wrestling, All Japan Pro Wrestling y Dragon Gate.

Este evento marcó el final de la carrera de Keiji Muto, quién se enfrentó al líder de Los Ingobernables de Japón: Tetsuya Naito, en su última lucha como profesional tras 38 años de carrera.

También, este evento marcó el final de la carrera de NOSAWA Rengai tras 27 años como luchador, debido a un fuerte resentimiento en sus lesiones. Su última lucha la hizo al lado de su compañero de equipo en Tokyo Gurentai: Mazada.

Fue la primera ocasión que Pro Wrestling NOAH realizó un evento desde el Tokyo Dome después de 18 años, ya que no lo hacía desde el evento Destiny 2005.

Producción
El 12 de junio de 2022, durante el "CyberFight Festival 2022", Muto anunció que su retiro sería el próximo año.  Unos días después, Pro Wrestling Noah anunció una serie de eventos para conmemorar la carrera de Muto que culminarían con una lucha final el 21 de febrero de 2023 en el Tokyo Dome.

Posteriormente, New Japan Pro Wrestling y All Japan Pro Wrestling, empresas donde Muto paso el mayor tiempo de su carrera, decidieron unirse al evento.

Antecedentes
Durante la noche 2 de Wrestle Kingdom 17, Tetsuya Naito derrotó a Kenoh en la lucha principal del evento, dándole el triunfo a su equipo en una Best of 5 Series entre Los Ingobernables de Japón (NJPW) y Kongo (NOAH). Durante la celebración, Keiji Muto se dirigió hacia el ring y le pidió a Naito que fuera su oponente en su combate de retiro en el evento Keiji Muto Grand Final Pro-Wrestling "Last-Love". Naito aceptó la propuesta de Muto, estableciendo la lucha en el evento principal para el 21 de febrero.

En el mismo evento, Kazuchika Okada y Togi Makabe se enfrentaron a Kaito Kiyomiya y Yoshiki Inamura. Durante la lucha, Kiyomiya pateó la cara de Okada, provocando una pelea fuera del ring, terminando la lucha sin resultado. Después de la pelea, Kiyomiya tomó el micrófono y reto a Okada a una lucha, pero éste no respondió. Ambos se siguieron atacando hasta que finalmente fueron separados por el personal de NJPW. En NOAH Great Voyage in Osaka 2023, Kiyomiya retuvo el Campeonato Peso Pesado de la GHC ante Jack Morris. Durante la celebración, Kiyomiya fue atacado por Okada quien lo conecto con un Rainmaker, y posteriormente aceptó la lucha.

Tras ganar su lucha en la noche 2 de Wrestle Kingdom 17, el Campeón Peso Pesado Junior de la IWGP Hiromu Takahashi asistió a la conferencia de prensa que ofreció NJPW después del evento. Allí fue sorprendido por el Campeón Peso Pesado Junior de la GHC AMAKUSA, que también había ganado su lucha esa noche. AMAKUSA reto a Takahashi a una lucha para probar quien es el mejor luchador Junior Peso Pesado. La lucha se haría oficial hasta el día siguiente.

En el evento NOAH Demolition Stage 2022 in Fukuoka, NOSAWA Rongai anunció que se retiraría de la lucha libre profesional el 21 de febrero de 2023, misma fecha del retiro de Keiji Muto. Su decisión llegó por orden médica, luego de que su condición física empeorara. El 20 de diciembre, se anunció que en su última lucha haría equipo con su compañero de equipo en Tokyo Gurentai MAZADA, ante Taiji Ishimori (antiguo rival de Rongai) y Gedo, miembros de Bullet Club.

Tras una pausa en la lucha libre profesional, Daga debutó en Pro Wrestling Noah en el evento Star Navegation 2023 al lado de los miembros de Stinger: Eita, Yoshinari Ogawa, Chris Ridgeway & NOSAWA Rongai con una victoria. Esa noche, se pacto la revancha para el 21 de febrero, cambiando a Rongai por Hayata. En Great Voyage in Osaka 2023, Daga volvió a luchar junto a Chris Ridgeway con Hayata en su esquina. Esa misma noche, Ridgeway y Hayata atacaron a Eita y Ogawa, causando la fractura del grupo. Sin embargo, la lucha ya estaba previamente pactada, por lo que volverán a luchar como equipo.

Durante el evento de NOAH The New Year 2023, Jack Morris derroto a  Timothy Thatcher. Después de la lucha, Jake Lee debutó en NOAH formando una alianza con Morris. A los pocos días, Anthony Greene (quién ya estaba previamente aliado con Morris) volvió de una gira por los Estados Unidos, formando los "Good Looking Guys". Por otro lado, Thatcher decidió unirse con los ex-campeones en parejas de la GHC TakaKoji (Takashi Sugiura & Satoshi Kojima), para retar al nuevo equipo de Morris, Lee y Grenne a una lucha de tres contra tres.

Transmisión
El evento se transmitió en vivo por el servicio de televisión lineal AbemaTV, quien se encargo de patrocinar el evento y al igual que CyberFight pertenece a la misma empresa matriz CyberAgent. El evento también puede verse a través de la plataforma de streaming de CyberFight: Wrestling Universe.

Biografia
Koops era nato in Pomerania, figlio di Matthias e Katherina Dorothea Koops. Nel 1789 era emigrato in Inghilterra, perché quell'anno aveva affittato una casa a Edmonton, Londra. Nel 1790 sposò Elisabetta Jane Austen nella chiesa parrocchiale di St Marylebone. Fu naturalizzato il 1 aprile 1790.

Dal 1800 al 1801, gestì la Neckinger Mill a Bermondsey, Londra, dove sperimentò la produzione di carta da paglia, fieno, pasta di legno, carta riciclata e altri oggetti, senza la necessità utilizzare stracci di stoffa. Nel 1801, ottenne due brevetti per queste invenzioni, il 17 febbraio e il 18 maggio. Questi brevetti gli concedevano il "privilegio esclusivo di produrre carta da paglia, fieno, cardi, scarti e rifiuti di canapa e lino, e diversi tipi di legno e corteccia" per un periodo di 14 anni. Nel febbraio 1801, trasferì la proprietà frazionata delle azioni di queste invenzioni a James Stevenson e ad altri individui, e nello stesso anno lanciò la Straw Paper Manufacturing Company a Millbank. Questa azienda era all'avanguardia nella fabbricazione della carta industriale, con il suo motore a vapore di John Rennie il Vecchio, i battitori olandesi e almeno una pressa idraulica per spremere l'acqua dalla carta.

Tuttavia, Koops era stato dichiarato fallito un decennio prima, il 30 giugno 1790, e doveva ancora somme considerevoli ai suoi creditori. Questi creditori si accordarono con Koop nel 1801, ma affermarono di non aver ricevuto quanto promesso e il 14 ottobre 1802 entrarono nella casa di abitazione e nella fabbrica di Koop e sequestrarono e vendettero tutto il contenuto. Inoltre, rivendicarono pieni diritti sui suoi brevetti, e quindi contestarono le quote frazionarie di proprietà di Stevenson e altri. Vinsero poi la successiva causa.

Il giorno di Natale del 1803, ai proprietari della Straw Paper Manufactury fu notificato un avviso per mancato pagamento dell'affitto e nel 1804 la fabbrica fu venduta all'asta. Come ultima misura, il 28 dicembre 1805, i proprietari della Straw Paper Manufactury pagarono £ 1.000 ai creditori di Koops, ma alla fine Koops fu nuovamente dichiarato fallito il 25 giugno 1812 e sembra che sia morto prima del 1815.

Synopsis: "The Ferryman is set in rural Northern Ireland in 1981. The Carney farmhouse is a hive of activity with preparations for the annual harvest. A day of hard work on the land and a traditional night of feasting and celebrations lie ahead. But this year they will be interrupted by a visitor."
The play premiered at London's Royal Court Theatre, reuniting Mendes and Butterworth following their work on the latest James Bond film, "Spectre." The play then transferred to the West End's Gielgud Theatre, where it received rave reviews and an extended run.
Produced by Sonia Friedman Productions and Neal Street Productions, The Ferryman's creative team features scenic & costume design by Rob Howell, lighting design by Peter Mumford, sound design & original music by Nick Powell, choreography by Scarlett Mackmin, and hair, wigs & make-up design by Campbell Young Associates. William Berloni serves as animal trainer, Terry King as UK fight director, Thomas Schall as US fight director, Majella Hurley as UK dialect coach, and Deborah Hecht serves as US dialect coach.
The Ferryman Tickets are available now for performances through to July 7, 2019.

Learning Organization – Conceptual Framework.
15 julio, 2019 carakenio73
The basic meaning of a learning organization is an organization that is continually expanding its capacity to create its future.
The five "component technologies" to innovate learning organizations.
The ferment in management will continue until we build organizations that are more consistent with man's higher aspirations beyond food, shelter and belonging.» Moreover, many who share these values are now in leadership positions. I find a growing number of organizational leaders who, while still a minority, feel they are part of a profound evolution in the nature of work as a social institution. «Why can't we do good works at work?» asked Edward Simon, president of Herman Miller, recently.
Business is the only institution that has a chance, as far as I can see, to fundamentally improve the injustice that exists in the world. But first, we will have to move through the barriers that are keeping us from being truly vision-led and capable of learning.» Perhaps the most salient reason for building learning organizations is that we are only now starting to understand the capabilities such organizations must possess.
For a long time, efforts to build learning organizations were like groping in the dark until the skills, areas of knowledge, and paths for development of such organizations became known. What fundamentally will distinguish learning organizations from traditional authoritarian «controlling organizations» will be the mastery of certain basic disciplines. That is why the «disciplines of the learning organization» are vital.
Today, I believe, five new «component technologies» are gradually converging to innovate learning organizations. Though developed separately, each will, I believe, prove critical to the others' success, just as occurs with any ensemble. Each provides a vital dimension in building organizations that can truly «learn,» that can continually enhance their capacity to realize their highest aspirations:
Systems thinking is a conceptual framework, a body of knowledge and tools that has been developed over the past fifty years, to make the full patterns clearer, and to help us see how to change them effectively.
Personal Mastery. People with a high level of personal mastery are able to consistently realize the results that matter most deeply to them— in effect, they approach their life as an artist would approach a work of art. They do that by becoming committed to their own lifelong learning. Personal mastery is the discipline of continually clarifying and deepening our personal vision, of focusing our energies, of developing patience, and of seeing reality objectively. As such, it is an essential cornerstone of the learning organization—the learning organization's spiritual foundation. But surprisingly few organizations encourage the growth of their people in this manner. This results in vast untapped resources: «People enter business as bright, welleducated, high-energy people, full of energy and desire to make a difference,» says Hanover's O'Brien. «By the time they are 30, a few are on the «fast track» and the rest 'put in their time' to do what matters to them on the weekend. They lose the commitment, the sense of mission, and the excitement with which they started their careers. We get damn little of their energy and almost none of their spirit.» And surprisingly few adults work to rigorously develop their own personal mastery. Here, I am most interested in the connections between personal learning and organizational learning, in the reciprocal commitments between individual and organization, and in the special spirit of an enterprise made up of learners.
Mental Models. The discipline of working with mental models starts with turning the mirror inward; learning to unearth our internal pictures of the world, to bring them to the surface and hold them rigorously to scrutiny. It also includes the ability to carry on «learningful» conversations that balance inquiry and advocacy, where people expose their own thinking effectively and make that thinking open to the influence of others.
Building Shared Vision. The practice of shared vision involves the skills of unearthing shared «pictures of the future» that foster genuine commitment and enrollment rather than compliance. In mastering this discipline, leaders learn the counterproductiveness of trying to dictate a vision, no matter how heartfelt.
Team Learning. How can a team of committed managers with individual IQs above 120 have a collective IQ of 63? The discipline of team learning confronts this paradox. We know that teams can learn; in sports, in the performing arts, in science, and even, occasionally, in business, there are striking examples where the intelligence of the team exceeds the intelligence of the individuals in the team, and where teams develop extraordinary capacities for coordinated action. When teams are truly learning, not only are they producing extraordinary results but the individual members are growing more rapidly than could have occurred otherwise. If a learning organization were an engineering innovation, such as the airplane or the personal computer, the components would be called «technologies.»
For an innovation in human behavior, the components need to be seen as disciplines. By «discipline,» I do not mean an «enforced order» or «means of punishment,» but a body of theory and technique that must be studied and mastered to be put into practice. A discipline is a developmental path for acquiring certain skills or competencies. As with any discipline, from playing the piano to electrical engineering, some people have an innate «gift,» but anyone can develop proficiency through practice.
System Thinking - The Fifth Discipline
It is vital that the five disciplines develop as an ensemble. This is why systems thinking is the fifth discipline. It is the discipline that integrates the disciplines, fusing them into a coherent body of theory and practice. It keeps them from being separate gimmicks or the latest organization change fads. Without a systemic orientation, there is no motivation to look at how the disciplines interrelate. By enhancing each of the other disciplines, it continually reminds us that the whole can exceed the sum of its parts.
But systems thinking also needs the disciplines of building shared vision, mental models, team learning, and personal mastery to realize its potential. Building shared vision fosters a commitment to the long term. Mental models focus on the openness needed to unearth shortcomings in our present ways of seeing the world. Team learning develops the skills of groups of people to look for the larger picture that lies beyond individual perspectives. And personal mastery fosters the personal motivation to continually learn how our actions affect our world. Without personal mastery, people are so steeped in the reactive mindset («someone/something else is creating my problems») that they are deeply threatened by the systems perspective.
At the heart of a learning organization is a shift of mind—from seeing ourselves as separate from the world to connected to the world, from seeing problems as caused by someone or something «out there» to seeing how our own actions create the problems we experience. A learning organization is a place where people are continually discovering how they create their reality. And how they can change it. People talk about being part of something larger than themselves, of being connected, of being generative.
The word is «metanoia» and it means a shift of mind. In the early (Gnostic) Christian tradition, it took on a special meaning of awakening shared intuition and direct knowing of the highest, of God.
To grasp the meaning of «metanoia» is to grasp the deeper meaning of «learning,» for learning also involves a fundamental shift or movement of mind.
Real learning gets to the heart of what it means to be human. Through learning we re-create ourselves. Through learning we become able to do something we never were able to do. Through learning we reperceive the world and our relationship to it. Through learning we extend our capacity to create, to be part of the generative process of life. There is within each of us a deep hunger for this type of learning.
This, then, is the basic meaning of a «learning organization»—an organization that is continually expanding its capacity to create its future. For such an organization, it is not enough merely to survive. «Survival learning» or what is more often termed «adaptive learning» is important—indeed it is necessary. But for a learning organization, «adaptive learning» must be joined by «generative learning,» learning that enhances our capacity to create.
A few brave organizational pioneers are pointing the way, but the territory of building learning organizations is still largely unexplored. It is my fondest hope that this book can accelerate that exploration: The-Fifth-Discipline.

There has been a long tradition of geomorphological mapping to support land use planning, especially in Poland (e.g. Klimaszewski 1956, 1961; Galon 1962) and France (e.g. Tricart 1965; for a history of geomorphological mapping in Europe, see Verstappen 1983). The Geological Society Working Party Report on maps and plans (Anon. 1972) identified examples of geomorphological mapping that could be of use to engineers. However, the value of the technique was best highlighted by its application to road projects in unstable terrain in Nepal and South Wales during the early 1970s (e.g. Brunsden et al. 1975a, b; Doornkamp et al. 1979; Jones et al. 1983). The techniques have also been successfully applied to dryland problems (e.g. Brunsden et al. 1979; Bush et al. 1980, Doornkamp et al. 1980; Cooke et al. 1982, 1985; Jones et al. 1986), soil erosion (e.g. Morgan 1995) and river management (e.g. Doornkamp 1982; Richards et al. 1987). Despite these applications, BS5930, Code of Practice for Site Investigations (British Standards Institution 1981), contains little reference to geomorphological maps (Griffiths & Marsh 1986) and the technique remains a marginal skill practised by a few experienced engineering geomorphologists. Examples of good mapping practice can be found within the references cited in this paper.

Went to the Dr.'s today and got the special paper that says I can go back to work on Wednesday. What this paper symbolizes is my return to my normal life at last. No matter how many times I may have complained about my job in the past, it takes something like this to really know that being able to even have a job is indeed a blessing and I am so grateful to be able to get back to life.
I know it won't be easy. Even now, I still feel the awful fatigue and I still tire really easily, but I'm ready to dig down and find my spirit and determination to get back to normal as best as I can. I still have another test ahead of me, as well as getting the drain removed that's connected to my bial duct, but hopefully these things will happen quickly enough and soon all foreign objects from my surgery will be out of my body. I have a horrific scar running diagonally across my midsection from my left breast to my right hip….but that's ok because I gave up showing my stomach years ago.
I'll just add my scar to my other collection of scars- caesarian, hysterectomy, lumpectomy and now gall bladder removal and stomach repair. Oh well, only God is perfect. I don't mind because these are my war wounds and most importantlly, I'm ALIVE to experience another beautiful day.

TENBURY WELLS PERSONAL LICENCE EXAM 99% PASS RATE 07970 134 730
If you live in Tenbury Wells an need to attend a Personal Licence training course, call Johnny Walker on 07970 134 730. I have a 99% exam pass rate. I can arrange a Personal Licence course just for you, at your premises on a date to suit your diary too.
Each premises licenced to sell or supply alcohol must have a DPS (designated premises supervisor) named on the premises licence.
A DPS must hold a Personal Licence and they will be responsible for authorising the sale or supply of alcohol. It is not necessary for everyone who sells alcohol at licensed premises to hold a Personal Licence.
Before applying for a Personal Licence you need to obtain a relevant qualification to ensure you have a good understanding of the Licensing Act 2003 and the responsibilities involved when selling alcohol. I deliver the Highfield one-day Personal Licence course, which is recognised by all licensing authorities in England and Wales.
You can also choose to become a Personal Licence holder if you want to apply for more than five temporary event notices in one calendar year.
If charged with a relevant offence under Schedule 4 of the Licensing Act 2003, Personal Licence must notify the Court that they hold a Personal Licence, before the end of their first appearance in a Magistrates' Court in connection with the offence.
A Personal Licence is required for induviduals who may be engaged in making and authorising the sale or supply of alcohol. Not every person retailing alcohol at premises licensed for that purpose will need a Personal Licence, but every sale or supply of alcohol must be at least authorised by such a Personal Licence holder.
The licence will be issued without an expiry date and remains for the life of the person. The licence remains permanently valid due to the passing of the Deregulation Act 2015.
You have a duty to notify the issuing licensing authority of any change of name or address. You should return both the photocard and paper counterpart of the Personal Licence for amendment, with the new details. There is a statutory fee for the re-issue of the licence which is currently £10.50.
Licensing authorities are now under a duty to undertake immigration checks on all applicants for Personal Licences. Applicants are, therefore, required to produce copies of prescribed document to prove their immigration and right to work status. The simplest way to do this is to include a photocopy of your passport when making a Personal Licence application.
Whilst licensing authorities are able to grant Personal Licences to persons who are subject to immigration control and only have limited time to remain in the UK, their licence will be invalid when their permission to be in the UK comes to an end. An application made by someone who is disqualified by reason of their immigration status, is invalid and must be rejected.
If you are applying for a Personal Licence, you must obtain an accredited qualification first. Call me, Johnny Walker on 07970 134 730 and I will explain what you need to do
The aim of the qualification is to ensure that Personal Licence holders are aware of licensing law and the wider social responsibilities involved in the sale of alcohol.
If you need a Personal Licence in the Tenbury Wells region, just call for advice on how to get your training completed as quickly as possible. I also complete all application forms with you on the training day.

Syria: Southern Front rebels are at risk of disintegrating
Hassan Hassan writes: Reports emerged last Friday that a leader of one of the largest factions in southern Syria had been ousted by his comrades. The episode is part of a broader campaign that could unravel what is often cited as the most successful model for the rebels across the country.
According to reports from Deraa, the leader of the Syrian Revolutionary Front was pushed aside and replaced by Major Qassem Najm, a military defector.
A source close to the ousted commander confirmed the news and accused Ahrar Al Sham and its regional backers of engineering the move. Last Tuesday, six sub-factions of the revolutionary front issued statements declaring allegiance to Major Najm.
The Southern Front is a rare model for the Syrian rebels. Local groups generally lack a unified command centre, although they collaborate on the front lines throughout the country. Numerous social, political and military factions enabled the groups in the south to coalesce and work towards a relatively moderate and nationalist model under a joint command. Extremist groups largely failed to outperform nationalist forces there, as they did in the north. [Continue reading…]

MIDDLESBROUGH SPINE ROAD: Petition gathers almost 1600 signatures to oppose road
A RURAL campaign group has joined the ranks of objectors in opposing a new spine road lined up in west Middlesbrough.
More than 1.600 homes have been lined up east of the A19 as part of a fresh Stainsby country park vision – with a controversial north-south road cutting through part of Mandale meadow.
Campaigners at Middlesbrough Greenstuff have aired ardent disapproval of the winding 30mph road.
And now the CPRE Countryside Charity has aired its own "significant concerns" about the road's potential impact on wildlife.
The CPRE's North Yorkshire branch had been contacted by worried Teessiders after the latest version of the Stainsby country park plan emerged.
The group – formerly known as the Campaign to Protect Rural England – pointed to concerns that the 140 hectare area was "one of the few remaining areas of major open space" in the town.
Its representatives also believed other sites in Middlesbrough could meet housing demand in the next five years at least – and urged officials to consider reducing the number of homes lined up in the new local plan to be published next year.
The CPRE added: "While it's recognised that the masterplan seeks to retain existing green corridors and create an essence of "country park living", (we) believe that the proposed development as set out in would totally alter the character of of the green wedges – removing the openness and the long-range agricultural views entirely."
The charity also believed the upcoming new local plan and pressing concerns over the climate rendered the spine road "unnecessary".
And its letter claimed the proposal wasn't needed given the number of brownfield sites earmarked for homes at Middlehaven, Grove Hill and Newport.
A total of 20,000 extra trees, public orchards, cycleways, a community hub and new sports pitches are part of the new vision for land at Brookfield as part of the framework for 1,670 homes.
Chiefs want to retain 54% of the land as green space as part of the vision.
But there has been outcry at the prospect of the "Stainton Way Western Extension".
Almost 1,600 people have signed an online petition opposing the road cutting through Mandale Meadow – with the plea fearing the route would "forever change and blight" the cherished stretch.
Greenstuff founder Martyn Walker wanted to see road loop back onto Low lane, or find an alternative exit point to safeguard the green space.
The "primary route" is earmarked to wind its way from Jack Simon Way to Mandale Road/Acklam Road in the north.
But the road has been in the borough's Local Plan blueprint since 2014.
Council leaders say there is very little which can be done to undo the route in the Local Plan without risking a big financial blow to the authority's coffers.
Last month, Middlesbrough Mayor Andy Preston pointed to the removal of 100 homes allocated on Mandale Meadow – and that he and colleagues had challenged the road.
However, he warned the council was open to a "huge risk of legal action" and "massive financial damages" from land owners and developers if the road wasn't built now.
He added: "This is because the potential road's existence in the Local Plan has brought land deals forward – these deals would collapse if the road doesn't happen.
"I completely understand that some people are very unhappy about the idea of the road – and I share their loathing of roads unless they are 100% necessary."
Chiefs have also warned much of the land east of the A19 is privately owned – with the vision offering the council more control and sway over facilities on the stretch when planning permission is lodged.
A consultation on the country park closed on Monday with results expected soon.

Sahibzada Jahangir's appointment as PM's spokesman welcomed in UK & Europe
Saturday Jul 13, 2019
Sahibzada Jahangir is the elder brother of Fauzia Kasuri. PM Imran Khan knows him for more than three decades.
LONDON: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) chapters in the UK and Europe have welcomed the appointment of Sahibzada Jahangir as Prime Minister Imran Khan's spokesman on Trade and Investment for the UK and Europe regions.
PTI chapters in the UK and Europe have appreciated decision by PM Imran Khan to appoint Sahibzada Jahangir – known popularly as Chicho bhai – as his spokesman on Trade and Investment. Prior to his current appointment, Sahibzada Jahangir used to head Imran Khan's International Secretariat on Foreign Trade, Investment and Development from Europe in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. He is also head of PTI UK and Europe chapters.
PTI leaders in UK have said that Jahangir's appointment was much needed because he has connections with business community in UK and Europe and he will play a key role in taking forward Imran Khan's vision for Naya Pakistan. They said in statements sent to this correspondent that overseas Pakistanis are excited at the appointment of Sahibzada Jahangir who is amongst Imran Khan's oldest friends including Naeem-ul-Haque and few others.
The notification issued by PM House says Jahangir's appointment is on an honorary basis.
PTI leaders said that Sahibzada Jahangir has always played a central role in raising funds for PTI, Shaukat Khanum Hospital and NAMAL University. They said that his appointment is acknowledgment of the loyal workers of PTI who have always stood by Imran Khan.
Earlier, on October 17, 2018, Sahibzada Amir Jahangir, who was appointed by Prime Minister Imran Khan as his special assistant on foreign investment, refused to take charge after criticism over social media.
Jahangir was accused of alleged financial fraud in London but investigation showed that there were no fraud findings against him in any court.
Sahibzada Jahangir had instructed lawyers at the same time and announced that he will produce record before the PM proving allegations against him are fake and based on malice.
Sahibzada Jahangir has confirmed that he will not be taking any salary or priviledges and will act on behalf of the PM to take trade and business to Pakistan and to generate more interest in investment in Pakistan.
"I will work day and night to attract foreign investments to Pakistan. I will soon be visiting European capitals to meet diaspora communities and to businesses to inform them about the opportunities that exist in Pakistan. I am honored for Prime Minister Imran Khan's trust in me," he said.
Sahibzada Jahangir is the elder brother of Fauzia Kasuri. Imran Khan has known him for more than three decades. It was at Jahangir's house that Imran Khan's marriage with Jemima Goldsmith was celebrated soon after their nikkah.
Two years ago he was appointed to oversee all of the PTI organisations in Europe and the UK. His two sons work in influential positions as investment bankers in London.

Top 10 Historically Bad Countries In The Olympics
By Jim Ciscell on August 9, 2012 Sports
In everything, there are winners and there are losers. In real life, as opposed to movies, sometimes the winners are always winners and the losers are always losers. In over a hundred years of the modern Olympiad, there has been a lot of discussion over who is the best in which sports. However, there is something to be said for going the distance, even if the odds are historically stacked against you. So, join us in closing out TopTenz' four-article Olympic series, by celebrating the other side of the Olympic experience. Lukewarm gets no notice, so everybody here is completely naked, medal-wise. Go all in, or go all out.
10. Mali (11 Summer Olympiads)
Mali started competing at the Olympics in 1964 with the Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. Most all of Mali's athletes have fallen into the Did Not Advance territory, and were essentially out after the first preliminary match-up. However, the high-water mark of Malian international athletic ascendancy came in the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece. The Malians made it to the quarterfinals in soccer. The underdog African team managed to hold powerhouse Italy scoreless until four minutes to go in the game, when Italy scored their lone goal to advance. It was a heroic effort by a plucky team.
9. Liberia (12 Summer Olympiads)
The Liberian Olympic History started in 1956 in Melbourne, Australia. In the 1980 Games in Moscow, the Liberians actually withdrew immediately after the Opening Ceremonies. After the 1988 Games in Seoul, Korea, Liberia sent its athletes off with a magnificent ceremony. After their poor showing in the Games, two athletes were actually assaulted and physically beaten. Liberia has never managed to advance in any sport beyond a preliminary at the Games.
8. Madagascar (11 Summer Olympiads, 1 Winter Olympiad)
Madagascar also started their Olympic Medal drought in 1964 with the Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan. Jules Randrianari did manage to give some pride to the Madagascar team in 1980, by finishing 25th in the Marathon event at the Moscow Games. In 2006, Madagascar made its first appearance at the Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, when Mathieu Razanakolona (its only representative) finished 39th in the Men's Giant Slalom. Razanakolona, however, did not finish the Men's Regular-Sized Slalom that same year.
7. Malta (15 Summer Olympiads)
Malta competed in the Olympics for the first time at the 1928 Summer Games in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Malta is notable for being the only European member of the International Olympic Committee to have never participated in the Winter Games. Not that the Summer Games have gone noticeably better for the Maltese. The 1980 Summer Games in Moscow were the first to feature archery. Malta got in on the front end, hoping to establish some credence in at least one sport. They sent one male and one female Archer as their only entrants in the Games. Leo Portelli finished dead last in the competition. Joanna Agius did a little better…finishing next-to-last.
6. Nepal (12 Summer Olympiads, 3 Winter Olympiads)
Nepal also started their Olympic History with the 1964 Summer Games in Tokyo, Japan. Nepalese athletes have not managed to fare well in either the Summer or the Winter Games. As a matter of fact, finishes in the upper half of the top fifty are fairly rare. In this culture, Bharat Sawad finishing 22nd in the Summer Olympics in Seoul, for the flyweight event in weightlifting, should be nearly statue-worthy. Nepal does get some credit for being lovable losers in both the Summer and Winter Olympics, as well as consistently competing in the games.
5. Myanmar (16 Summer Olympiads)
Myanmar's history in the Summer Games has so far stretched from the Games in 1948 in London, England, to the 2012 Olympic Games in…well, also London. Myanmar has the curious distinction of having lost at the Olympic games from 1948 – 1992 as Burma. The name was officially changed to Myanmar for the 1992 games, yet the losing has continued for the last twenty years. In 2004, Thin Thin Khaing brought pride at drama to the Women's Archery Competition in Athens, Greece. Khaing was eliminated, but had the only archery round ever to force a record three tie-breaking shots.
4. Bolivia (13 Summer Olympiads, 5 Winter Olympiads)
Bolivia's first Summer Olympics occurred in 1936 in Berlin, Germany. Bolivia would then take a 28-year hiatus until the 1964 Games in Tokyo, Japan. María Teresa Monasterio had Bolivia's highest finish in any sport, with a 17th place finish in Beijing in women's weightlifting. Montasterio impressively managed to make this competitive finish at the somewhat advanced age (for Olympic athletes) of 38. Bolivia has not participated in the Winter Games since 1992.
3. Andorra (10 Summer Olympiads, 10 Winter Olympiads)
Andorra has appeared in every Olympics Games (both Summer and Winter) since 1976. Andorra's first Olympic appearance was the Winter Games in Innsbruck, Austria. While the consistency effort is certainly laudable, the results have certainly been a bit lacking. The lone top-20 finish for any athlete by Andorra came in the 1988 Winter Games in Nagano, Japan. Vicki Grau finished 19th in the Women's Slalom. The same year, Grau did not finish the Women's Giant Slalom. That would be the high-water, or perhaps high-snow, mark.
2. San Marino (13 Summer Olympiads, 7 Winter Olympiads)
San Marino first participated in the Summer Olympic Games in 1960 in Rome, Italy. San Marino was somewhat notable for causing a bit of a stir about the United States-led boycott in the 1980 Moscow Summer Olympics. San Marino supported the boycott, partially. San Marino allowed its athletes to compete, but the San Marino contingent did not compete under their own flag in support of the boycott: they competed under the Olympic flag. They might want to use the Olympic flag more often. Stefano Casali had one of San Marino's best finishes ever, with a 24th place finish in the 20-kilometer walk.
1. Monaco (20 Summer Olympics, 8 Winter Olympics)
Monaco started its long march toward being the country competing in the most Olympics without an athletic medal in 1920. The 1920 Summer Olympics were held in Antwerp, Belgium. Monaco's Julien Médecin did actually win a Bronze Medal in the 1924 Games…for Architecture. The medal was for Town Planning for the Stadium of Monte Carlo. Since art competitions are not counted in the official athletic medal count, Monaco still does not officially have a medal in an athletic competition. The only question now is, what will happen first: Monaco winning an athletic medal, or the Chicago Cubs winning the World Series?

seems like lots of countries that start with the letter "M" just don't have good athletes.
Ronnie on August 9, 2012 2:46 pm
I guess not every country makes their athletes their gods.

Everybody in Monaco is too filthy rich to care about competing in the Olympics… 🙂
fdx on August 9, 2012 4:51 pm
Come on, you do know that a lot of those countries are among the less populated or the poorest in the world.
Andorra: 85.000 people / USA 314 million people.
Jonesy on August 9, 2012 6:09 pm
Um, just to let you know, the 1988 Winter Olympics were held in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Nagano held the 1998 Winter Olympics.
Peter Boucher on August 27, 2012 2:59 am
So, if you're a citizen of a country that starts with the letter "M", don't compete in the Olympics. ( 5 out of 10 on this list : Mali, Madagascar, Malta, Myanmar & Monaco )

Q: Finding A Matrix For A Specific Operator I have am studying Linear Algebra, and one of our homework assignments is this:

Find a matrix representation for the linear operator $F = \frac d{dx}$ with the orthonormal basis
$$Y_0 = \frac 3{\sqrt{5}} \\ Y_1 = \sqrt{\frac 83}x \\ Y_2 = \frac 52(5x^2-1)$$

We are also supposed to use the scalar product:
$$\langle F,G\rangle = \int_{-1}^1 F^*G\,dx$$
But I am not sure how to go about this problem. What do I call $F$ and what do I call $G$. Please make the explanations clear, I really want to learn how to work with this stuff. Thanks!

A: Apply the linear operator to the basis vectors, these will be the column of your matrix
$$
(y_0)'=0\\
(y_1)'=\sqrt{\frac{8}{3}}=\frac{\sqrt{40}}{3^{3/2}}y_0\\
(y_2)''=25x=25\sqrt{\frac{3}{8}}y_1
$$
yielding
$$
\begin{bmatrix}0&\frac{\sqrt{40}}{3^{3/2}}&0\\0&0&25\sqrt{\frac{3}{8}}\\0&0&0 \end{bmatrix}
$$
