Q: how to get Exception message when trying to display create/Edit view i have two business rules, i try to apply  :

*

*user can insert a new invoice only when all  invoices are closed.

*when an invoice is closed, the user can't Edit her.

an invoice has two states: a current, closed, paid and canceled
for this i have implemented my business logic in create methode in business layer
and when the user try to click submit button, the httppost action methode call the business code.
but i want to applay these rules in httpget  create/edit action methode, so that, when user try to click at the add button to display create/Edit view, he get an exception messages respectivly for both create and Edit
here's my code
   //business logic
   public AddInvoice(Invoice invoice)
   {
       var invoicesCount = Context.Invoices.Count(x=>x.State !=
       InvoiceState.Closed);//InvoiceState is enum
       if (invoicesCount > 0)
            throw new BusinessReulesException("you should close all your
          invoices before insert");

          Context.Invoices.Add(invoice);
          Context.SaveChanges();
   }

   public UpdateInvoice(Invoice invoice)
   {
       if (Context.Entry(invoice).State == EntityState.Detached)
  Context.Invoices.Attach(invoice);

       if (invoices.State == InvoiceState.Closed)
           throw new BusinessReulesException("you can't update an closed invoices );

       Context.Entry(invoice).State =EntityState.Modified;
       Context.SaveChanges();
   }

  //controller code
  [httpGet]
  public ActionResult Create()
  {
     //how to apply business logic for catch Exception here
  }
  [httpPost]
  public ActionResult Create(Invoice invoice)
  {
      if(ModelState.isValide){
      try{
           invoiceBll.AddInvoice(invoice);
           return RedirectToAction("Index");
      }
      catch(BusinessRulesException ex){
             ViewBag.Message = ex.Message;
      }
   }
}
//the same thing for update
//the rest of code

any idea?

A: In order to keep your code clean you can use HandleError built in filters. Like:
[HandleError(View = "Your_Error_View")]
public ActionResult Create(Invoice invoice)
{
  if(ModelState.isValide)
  {
    try
    {
       invoiceBll.AddInvoice(invoice);
       return RedirectToAction("Index");
    }
    catch(BusinessRulesException ex)
    {
         ViewBag.Message = ex.Message;
    }
  }
}

ASP.Net MVC HandleError attribute provides a built-in exception filter. The HandleError attribute in ASP.NET MVC can be applied over the action method as well as a controller or at the global level for handle the exception in controller and action level. While creating our application, the HandleError attribute is automatically included within the Global.asax.cs and registered in FilterConfig.cs as shown below.

Few more ways how to handle errors in asp.net mvc:

Web.Config customErrors
Controller.OnException method
HttpApplication Application_Error event
Collect exceptions via .NET profiling with Retrace
Custom middleware

EDIT
It can by specified on a method level and you can use different error views for every method, or you can specify one error view for whole controller.
Error data can be passed to the error view so you can display it there

A: You'll have to write a separate view (e.g. Shared/ErrorPage.cshtml) that displays that error message that you're storing in the ViewBag. I assume that is what it is for, right?

You encountered an error!

@ViewBag.Message

Then in your action method, you want to return that specific view instead of the default:
[httpPost]
public ActionResult Create(Invoice invoice)
{
    if(ModelState.isValide){
    try{
         invoiceBll.AddInvoice(invoice);
         return RedirectToAction("Index");
    }
    catch(BusinessRulesException ex){
         ViewBag.Message = ex.Message;
         return View("~/Shared/ErrorPage.cshtml");  //<<<<-- this is new
    }
 }

Note: Rendering the original exception message thrown by your code for the end user to read may not be the best practice.

PERRY TRYING TO IRON IT OUT
By TOM YANTZ; Courant Staff Writer
CROMWELL -- — The solitary man at the far end of the practice range was hitting ball after ball Monday afternoon. As soon as he emptied a bucket, the range attendant was scurrying.
"I need another bucket," Kenny Perry said.
He needed eight more in a four-hour span at the TPC at River Highlands. With 35 balls to a bucket, he hit 315.
"I'm working on a new set of irons," Perry said. "Usually I take Mondays off."
But there he was, showing diligence and persistence.
Perry, No. 10 in the world, is the highest-ranked player in the Buick Championship, which begins Thursday. He is also the leading moneywinner in the field (sixth).
Yet he's coming off a disappointing finish in the WGC-NEC Invitational at Firestone Country Club in Akron, Ohio. He shared the lead with Tiger Woods late in the third round when play was suspended Saturday because of lightning.
Playing in the final group with Woods Sunday, Perry birdied the seventh and led by two shots. But bogeys at 9, 10, 12, 13 and 14 sent Perry reeling. He finished with a 4-over 74 and tied for sixth.
"It was very disappointing, probably the worst defeat for me," he said. "Sure I was upset. If you're not upset playing like that, then why play?"
So Monday, Perry labored on the practice range. His caddie, Andy Lano, had the day off.
"I'm tinkering, testing these irons," Perry said.
He tested them again Tuesday at Hop Meadow Country Club in Simsbury, where The Hartford held an outing that featured Perry and J.J. Henry, two of the three PGA Tour players sponsored by the company (Chad Campbell is the other).
Perry, 45, said he'll probably use both old and new irons today in the St. Paul Travelers Celebrity Pro-Am. He tees off at 8:40 a.m. at No. 1.
"[His old irons] have been bothering me for a while," he said. "The balls were coming off too hot and not holding the greens. I needed to calm them down."
So he did some hands-on analysis Monday and Tuesday.
"The irons I had been using were a half-inch too long," he said. "Before a tournament starts, I'll see how the ball feels off the club, the height of the shots, the trajectory, shaping, how the club feels when it hits the ground. Do they feel good?"
For most of the season, Perry said he has felt comfortable over the ball. He won the Bay Hill Invitational and the Bank of America Colonial. He has finished in the top 10 six times, made 16 of 20 cuts and earned $3,282,605.
"It's very similar to 2003 [three victories and a career-high $4,400,122]," he said. "I won Colonial that year, too, and made a lot of cuts."
Two years ago, Perry tied for fourth at the TPC at River Highlands, his best finish in a tournament he played for the first time in 1987.
That's the year he began his relationship with the Kirsche family in Wethersfield. Perry has stayed at their home, about a wedge shot away from the Wethersfield Country Club, every year in which he has played in the GHO/Buick Championship.
"Steve and Martha are great people," Perry said. "It feels like home."
Perry also lives with families when he plays in The Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio, and the FBR Open in Scottsdale, Ariz.
He's proud to say he's a family man. Next week, he'll begin helping the Western Kentucky University golf team.
"They asked me to be an assistant [coach]," he said.
Perry's son Justin, a sophomore, is on the team.
"This week will be my last on tour for a while," Perry said. "I always try to take this time off when everyone is heading back to school. I won't play again until the Presidents Cup."
The Presidents Cup (U.S. vs. International) is Sept. 19-25 in Lake Manassas, Va. It will be Perry's third appearance in the biannual event. And Woods will be a teammate.
"I love playing with Tiger," Perry said. "I just don't like his gallery. They're very vocal. Some are obnoxious and say derogatory things like choker to players in his group. But I get along great with Tiger. And he's a great, great player to have on your side."
The U.S. team will be coached by Jack Nicklaus for the second straight time.
"We'll play hard for him," said Perry, who calls Nicklaus an idol. "We don't want to send him out a loser. I'll be working my hardest on my game, so I won't let him down."

The resurgence of Afternoon Tea experience in the UK
Image: JING Tea
Posted: 8 December 2022
Related core topics: Blending, roasting & processing, Business
Related organisations: Jing Tea
Related people: Catherine Archer, Vanessa Facenda
A new survey finds there is a revival of the Afternoon Tea experience in the United Kingdom, particularly among younger generations.
Tea consumption has declined over the last few years (according to International Tea Committee data, tea imports over the past decade in the UK dropped from 128,000 tonnes to 111,000 tonnes), but Great Britain remains a nation of tea lovers. On average, Brits drink 3.61 cups a day with 46% of the population drinking four cups or more per day. JINGTM Tea commissioned a survey to uncover new consumer Afternoon Tea trends across the nation, which found that 28% of the UK population goes out for Afternoon Tea at least once a month.
Afternoon Tea has been a tradition in Britain since the 1800s. According to JING Tea, the story of Afternoon Tea begins in 1840 with a cup of tea, enjoyed by Duchess Anna of Bedford. Every day at 4pm she would have a pot of tea, while staring longingly at the clock, wishing the hours away until it was time for dinner. One day, having eaten very little at lunch, she could no longer bear the wait and ordered the kitchen to bring her pot of tea with some buttered bread and cakes and so the tradition began.
The JING Tea survey shows this tradition is making a comeback across the UK, with regional hotspots including London (52%) and the North East (35%) experiencing Afternoon Tea at least once a month. Many consumers are choosing to celebrate special occasions with Afternoon Tea, with 54% of 18-to 24-year-olds having Afternoon Tea at Christmas, and 43% of 25- to 34-year-olds celebrating a birthday with Afternoon Tea.
While cakes, biscuits (cookies), and sandwiches are an essential aspect of the Afternoon Tea experience – especially among the growing nation of foodies – the survey reports that 77% of the population cite quality of tea to be an important factor. Furthermore, 83% of 18-to 24-year-olds (Gen Z) and 92% of Londoners look for an 'excellent choice of tea' for their Afternoon Tea experience.
Further good news for the tea industry — the research also showed that loose leaf tea consumption is rising with 77% of Brits drinking loose leaf tea at least once a month and 69% of Gen Z choosing loose leaf tea at least once a week. When questioned, 35% of Gen Z said '[loose leaf] has more organic options', while 20% believe it is more sustainable and 33% said that loose leaf offers 'better quality tea'.
With a quarter of the nation drinking more loose-leaf tea now than a year ago; the survey shows that 55% of Brits drink loose leaf 'at least once a week'. Weekly consumption figures in some regions are over and above this including: the South West (72%), London (66%), East Anglia (62%), the North West (59%) and the East Midlands (56%). In Wales, of those who are drinking more loose-leaf tea, 65% cite taste as the main reason for doing so, that is 11% more than the national average. Similarly, in the South West and the South East, 72% and 68%, respectively, of those drinking more loose leaf say they are doing so because it is more sustainable.
"The resurgence of Afternoon Tea and the need for a great choice and quality of tea particularly in Gen Z and Millennials supports our mission to provide excellent single origin tea choices for all ages," noted Catherine Archer, CEO of JING Tea, which is a leading tea supplier to many high-end hotels. JING Tea commissioned the survey with One Poll and polled 2,000 respondents nationally.
According to the survey, English Breakfast/black tea remains the UK's favourite tea to have with cake, but herbal tea and green tea are rising among Gen Z and millennials; with more men drinking herbal tea and women drinking green tea. Of the 18-to 24-year-olds polled "what they most commonly drink with cake," 15% said green tea and 17% herbal tea.
While hotels, restaurants and cafés are still the preferred choice for Afternoon Tea and special occasions (57%), a growing number of consumers is choosing Afternoon Tea at home across all age groups but in particular: 30% of Gen Z (18 to 24s) and 31% of those aged 65 plus. According to JING Tea, since the pandemic, the evolution of home delivery and takeaway options from high end establishments through to local bakeries, factor into the increased accessibility enabling Brits to enjoy Afternoon Teatime as a get together with friends and family in the comfort of their own home as well as out and about.
Given the season, many hotels, restaurants and cafés are offering specially curated Holiday Afternoon Teas so, enjoy your cuppa!

5 Relatable K-Dramas That Will Motivate You During The Job Search
by EvaCh10
It's that time of the year again, but this time, you're the one in an overpriced graduation cap and gown who has just graduated with a big smile and has no idea what you're going to do a month from now. A month passes. You've turned in over 10 job applications this week and you're starting to feel hopeless now that you haven't received a single phone call. As usual, it's time to go on Soompi for news on the newest K-dramas.
Then it hits you. Those light-hearted, quirky K-dramas where the misunderstood and slightly-tortured third-generation chaebol rescues the poor, hard-working, but bright, kind girl who is just trying to make ends meet are suddenly annoying. Why does she even have the latest smartphone?! Why is he picking out her whole new wardrobe?! What you thought was cute a month ago is now annoying and unrelatable. Maybe it's because there aren't enough chaebols to go around or maybe it's because adulting is too hard. Maybe you don't even want a chaebol. Maybe all you want right now is a decent paying job that you are passionate about.
Whatever it may be, here are five fun, relatable K-dramas that will motivate us to not give up on our dreams no matter how hard job hunting gets. These dramas offer fresh, positive, and inspirational stories of what it means to be in your 20s and how priorities and career goals change over time. Take a deep breath and let's get started on making your week better!
FFMY
"Go Back Couple"
Right off the bat, we learn that happily-ever-afters are shattered by the grim reality of late utility bills, endless chores, miscommunication, zero work-life balance, and the death of a loved one. Doesn't this already sound familiar and realistic? The grass really isn't greener on the other side. College sweethearts Choi Ban Do (Son Ho Jun) and Ma Jin Joo (Jang Na Ra) are now overworked, jaded, lonely 38-year-olds who have realized that their careers and marriage didn't turn out the way they had planned. They decide to break up only to time-travel 20 years into the past — back to their glory days at college in 1999.
As we watch Ban Do and Jin Joo experience college again and try their best to avoid one another, we also think fondly of our university days and realize how good we had it. Just like Jin Joo, we get caught up in the rush of everyday life and forget to cherish our loved ones and appreciate the little things. Take things one day at a time. Our dreams and priorities will change as we get older and wiser — and that's alright.
Catch the first episode of "Go Back Couple":
There's a chaebol in this hilarious, unconventional drama, but the heroine isn't your typical helpless girl with a heart of gold. Jo Ji Ah (Chae Soo Bin) may be poor, but she is a strong, independent entrepreneur who believes in her unsuccessful inventions and wants to start her own business.
Like many of us, Ji Ah wants to be her own boss and to be taken seriously by her family. Pressured by her brother to get a normal 9-to-5 office job and pay off her loans, Ji Ah gets roped into pretending to be a robot named Aji 3. As the sassy, disobedient robot Aji 3, Ji Ah helps her master, Kim Min Kyu (Yoo Seung Ho), overcome his allergy to humans and learn to trust people again.

Ji Ah's relentless pursuit of her dream and her kindness to Min Kyu reminds us to believe in ourselves or no one will. We shouldn't look for approval from others or give up on our dreams just because they're unconventional.

Catch the first episode of "I Am Not A Robot":
Whether we like it or not, looks tend to matter in a competitive job market. The title of this drama signifies the importance of beauty in a materialistic, superficial world and the physical transformation of Kim Hye Jin (Hwang Jung Eum) and her first love Ji Sung Joon (Park Seo Joon). In fifth grade, Hye Jin was the popular, pretty girl who was the only one genuinely kind to Sung Joon, an overweight and shy nerd. When Sung Joon returns as a handsome, successful fashion magazine editor 15 years later, he doesn't recognize Hye Jin due to her skin condition. Dismayed and disappointed, Hye Jin asks her best friend to meet Sung Joon in her place, but things get complicated once Hye Jin is assigned to be Sung Joon's new intern.
We cheer for Hye Jin as she picks up new skills, builds up her self-esteem, and learns to embrace her quirkiness. This reversal in fate reveals how one's character shouldn't be determined by physical beauty nor should success be determined by wealth and social status, and it's inspiring to watch Hye Jin work hard at her job in order to break stereotypes and to prove herself. We've all been overlooked or unappreciated before but look on the bright side: hard work always pays off. Your effort and perseverance will lead to more opportunities.
Catch the first episode of "She Was Pretty":
"Chief Kim"
"Chief Kim" is outrageously funny and definitely not your typical office drama. Strange, unpredictable, and brilliant, Kim Sung Ryong (Namgoong Min) is a talented accountant who works for gangsters and always tries to scam his employers. He becomes the manager at a top company only to learn that the chairman wants to use him as a scapegoat for accounting fraud. Chief Kim ultimately realizes how much his new eccentric employees are suffering due to the corrupt chairman and decides to fight for justice by exposing the chairman's embezzlement.
Of course, it's disheartening — and relatable — to see how Chief Kim and his employees constantly work overtime, don't get credit for their hard work, and become the scapegoats whenever something goes wrong. But there are also many scenes of heartwarming everyday office life and unlikely friendships. (Chief Kim is that loyal leader we all want to have on our team!) Not to mention, the rivalry — or bromance — between Kim Sung Ryong and his nemesis Director Seo Yool (2PM's Lee Junho) is a must-watch and a popular favorite among K-drama fans.

What is "Chief Kim" doing on this list instead of "Incomplete Life" (a.k.a. "Misaeng")? You can always watch "Misaeng" for its slice-of-life office drama or you can simply enjoy them both!

Dreams change over time. Where you end up in your career might not be imaginable or realistic to the 10-year-old you. In "Fight My Way," four friends deal with uncertainty and failure in their late 20s, something I'm sure we can all relate to in some way. In particular, Dong Man, a has-been national taekwondo champion, decides to train with his old coach again while Ae Ra pursues her lifelong dream of becoming an announcer. The Crazy Fantastic Four — Choi Ae Ra (Kim Ji Won), Ko Dong Man (Park Seo Joon), Baek Seol Hee (Song Ha Yoon), and Kim Joo Man (Ahn Jae Hong) — don't have the right qualifications like most recent college graduates, but their friendship and persistence help them overcome obstacles in their careers. Their stories remind us to keep fighting for our dreams and to keep putting ourselves out there.
Here are some things you just can't miss:
Shirtless Dong Man (Park Seo Joon) fighting off enemies.
Ae Ra's unbearable cuteness (aeygo) and crazy antics.
Relatable quotes about dreams and work.
The cutest flashbacks to Ae Ra and Dong Man as kids.
Watch these messy dorks and childhood best friends deal with everything life throws at them. Be proud of who you are right now and ignore all the petty haters like Ae Ra.
Catch the first episode of "Fight My Way":
Choi Ae Ra is right about how having horrible qualifications and little to no wealth or connections makes it very difficult to find a decent job. It's unfair, but that doesn't mean you should quit. You have to work as hard as you possibly can.
And like Do Bong Soon (Park Bo Young) says in "Strong Woman Do Bong Soon," you are not unemployed. You are a job seeker! Take everything one day at a time and think positively. Your hard work will eventually pay off.

Unlike Matt Hoffman's no handed 900 at the X Games, this game doesn't live up to expectations. A BMX tour of America is supposed to be fun, but this game leaves you wanting a little more. To be totally honest, this game is Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, except with bikes and pro bikers. You would think that Activision O2 would try to differentiate their products, instead of having cardboard cutouts of the same game engine.
The first thing that stands out is the sluggish controls. It is more difficult to pull off a trick than it should be. The next big problem is the goals at each stage.
Some of the goals, at the beginning, are very hard to obtain. But, as the game goes on and you get upgraded bikes and stats they become easier to obtain.
The levels are one of the saving graces of this game. They are huge, and you can trick off of any thing you see. There is also enough room for you to use the new flat land tricks.
Another saving grace is the cut scenes, which are actual footage of Hoffman' s last park tour of the U.S. But if you watched it on television then this is nothing new.
This game receives a final score of 5 out of 10. If you want to play a fun BMX game stick with Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2, or wait till DMFB3 comes out. And besides, doesn't Mirra beat Hoffman most of the time anyways.


Don't feel like you have to understand this part fully! Skim it for now, and consider it a resource for you when you want to take a deeper dive into understanding the hardware!
Your Arduino has some lights that it can use to give you an idea of what it is up to.
These lights, called LEDs (pronounced Ell Eee Dee), are on just about every electronic device you own. Often times they're used to let you know if something is on and if there's an error. For example, here's a cable modem with multiple LEDs.
Each LED indicates the status of the modem. For example, on this device the one to the right is the POWER LED, its lit if there's good power. In the middel is the ONLINE LED, which lets you know if the modem was able to connect to the Internet. Between those two, thereis the SEND and RECEIVE LEDs, that blink when you upload or download data through the modem.
L LED - this is the one LED that you can control. The ON, RX and TX LEDs all light up automatically no matter what. The L LED, however, is connected to the Arduino main chip and you can turn it on or off when you start writing code.

The EU's economic governance framework is arguably one of the most divisive issues among member states and top priority in Europe's to-do list of outstanding reforms. Niels Thygesen does not shy away from this challenge. After questioning the Commission's fiscal stance for this year, he proposed a return to a more 'prudent' orientation for 2018. In October, he will address one of the hottest topics: whether the application of the Stability and Growth Pact (SGP) unfairly favoured countries like France.
Niels Thygesen is the first chairman of the European Fiscal Board, a five-member body set up last year. He is a Danish economist, professor emeritus of International Economics at the University of Copenhagen, and former adviser to governments and international institutions, including the IMF and the OECD.
He spoke with EURACTIV's Jorge Valero in an exclusive interview.
Your proposal for this year's fiscal stance is neutral, compared with the small stimulus proposed by the European Commission last year. Why did you make such a recommendation given that Europe still needs investment and there is fiscal room for it?
We are approaching more normal times. The output gap does suggest that it is closing. Whatever measure you use indicates that things are going better. There is some elimination of the slackness in the economy. That clearly strengthens the case for not doing anything extra at the European level beyond what is in the national recommendations [made by the European Commission]. The case was a bit different last year. With retrospect, maybe I am a bit less critical about what the Commission said. Last year there was an understanding in the Eurogroup and elsewhere that the Commission should have already said that a broadly neutral fiscal stance was appropriate. So they were taken a bit by surprise, and too much of the discussion was on the specific number the Commission suggested of 0.5% of GDP of additional stimulus. That was a bit unfortunate, also for the idea which I regard as perfectly valid, that the times were more critical than today.
The new European Fiscal Board began working just as the European Commission took the unprecedented step of proposing a fiscal target for the eurozone. The Board's chief, Niels Thygesen told EURACTIV.com that the Commission should have done "more analysis" before proposing an expansionist stance.
You are right. Countries with fiscal space should be encouraged to do more. There should be more emphasis on investment, as it not only helps to eliminate slack in the economy but also produces higher potential growth in the future.
Despite the need for investment and the fiscal space, you would not argue in favour of an expansionary fiscal stance?
No, I don't think so. In fact, if you look at the European Commission's forecast, there is already an expansionary impulse. There is an expectation, at least in the Commission, of a somewhat more expansionary stance. So you have to correct a bit for that. Therefore rules should apply, particularly to those with high debt. Ideally, this should be supplemented by the few countries, particularly Germany and the Netherlands, that have fiscal space and should do more. We recommend that quite clearly.
The European Commission on Thursday (11 May) revised upwards its growth forecast for this year and the next, despite the difficult break-up negotiations expected between the EU and the UK, and the long list of challenges affecting the bloc.
Speaking of Germany, how would you describe its attitude regarding its reluctance to spend more?
One has to make two arguments. Firstly, it should be in the interest not only of Germany but also the Netherlands to do more, as they will create more growth capacity for the future. Secondly, fiscal policy has to be decided by national governments. As a result, it is an important task to convince countries like Germany or the Netherlands that it is in their interest to do more. And regarding the second argument, the Commission perhaps should put a bit more emphasis on the so-called spillover effects. More efforts from Germany and the Netherlands will have a major impact on the stabilisation efforts of other countries, but also within Germany, and that is the important argument. The Commission made some calculations in May about this positive impact. But it is not very large. I don't think they should be exaggerated. But they are relevant and even more relevant at a time when we are continuing to have an accommodating monetary policy. We agree that the case is stronger when interests rates remain low and stable. In normal times, in the eurozone, the spillover effects would be fairly modest. The reason is that if Germany increases its expenditure, the ECB would raise interest rates because Germany is such a very large economy.
Draghi said risks have stabilised. Do you agree with him?
In a way, we are in a more balanced situation. Deflationary risks are very distant now. Realistically speaking, the overheating fear is more imminent in countries with nearly full employment or full employment, like in Germany. We see how labour costs are starting to rise a bit faster in Germany. But overall, we are in a well-balanced situation, where both the risks of deflation and overheating are somewhat remote. That is the basis for some reconsideration. For the next crisis, which with no doubt will occur, it is a good moment to look at how we manage the challenge where the monetary policy does not become again basically the only macroeconomic policy.
Can we say the European comeback is a reality from an economic point of view?
It is a comeback. The comment I made when I presented the report in the Eurogroup last week is that we are approaching normality. We should stop talking about a recovery phase.
In autumn you will release the first report on how the Stability and Growth Pact has been followed by member states and enforced. What could we expect?
We are now drafting an annual report which should come out hopefully in October. It will look into how the SGP has been applied, how the fiscal rules evolved, and the weaknesses of the current system.
The Commission believes that the main beneficiaries of the flexibility introduced a couple of years ago are Italy, France, Spain, Portugal? Do you agree? Was it too much flexibility or it was an intelligent step?
We will look at the question of whether the extension of deadlines, for example, is a major factor in the treatment of countries, and whether there have been differences. It is part of our mandate to look at the consistency of the application of the rules across countries. There is a perception that there has been some distortions, some inconsistencies in the application of the rules, but I am not prepared to say whether it is fully justified.
Will you back Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker's statement that 'France is France' when it comes to the enforcement of the SGP?
No, I did not say that. We look more at the figures and how the rules have been applied, and the balance between the corrective arm and the preventive arm. That will be the substance of our discussion.
Some reforms have been proposed to improve the SGP, including simplifying the rules, giving more importance to the debt rule and introducing more market discipline. In your view, what reforms are needed?
It is a bit of everything. It is clear that the rules have become so complex that you can emphasise part of the rulebook and countries get away with that. That is one problem. Besides, market discipline was very hard to apply at the beginning. But you cannot apply market discipline in times of crisis because markets are too sensitive. We saw that in 2011-2012, until the ECB made the Outright Monetary Transactions (OMT) announcement. Now we are somewhat in a more tranquil environment. Certainly, market discipline is an element we will also discuss.
In regards to the debt rule, it is in principle operational on paper, but it has been difficult to apply it. It is disappointing to see that debt levels have been stuck at 130% of GDP in countries such as Italy and Portugal for a long time. That does not match the debt rule at all.
The European Fiscal Board provides the European Commission with an evaluation of the implementation of the EU fiscal rules, including the appropriateness of the actual fiscal stance at euro area and national levels.
The Commission appointed Thygesen as its chairman. He leads a team of four economists. They are Roel Beetsma, from The Netherlands, the Italian economist Massimo Bordignon, Sandrine Duchêne, former advisor to French President Francois Hollande, and the former Finance Minister of Poland, Mateusz Szczurek.
The Board publishes an annual report of its activities, which will include summaries of its advice and evaluations rendered to the Commission.
There is no normality inside the Eurozone . There is no common or federal fiscal policy nor a real budgetary treasury .
Continuing the austerity is empoisoning the Eurozone .
What the Eurozone needs are federal basics and real serious administrations which means no more nursery institutions . There is a rule for the Euro-currency like the dollar . Not more or less !
Fail to do it will soon have aggravated consequences .
If Big Germany and Big France as other Big E.U. States or others dont respect the European values then the calculation results will be very very worse .
The Eurozone cannot continue with their Business as usual anymore and the rules have to apply soon.
the Danish non-eu economist Niels Thygesen is totally Wrong and of course an outdated grumpy (sorry) !
Ask Mario Draghi or Ben Bernanke instead to get the right answer .
Do you encourage people to break valid rules? Some countries like the Baltics are willing to comply with rules and some like France, Italy, Greece are not. This is the difference. The rest is talking.
At least the U.S. don't behave with Detroit like Germany is doing with Southern . Sorry for the Truth .
I only encourage Leaders to go for correct rules to straight back the bended rood of the E.U. core-economy and to prevent the depuzzeling of the E.U.
Europeans wants a federal non-egoistic core EU.
Fighting with monetary special policies for a federal currency others than intended rules is just plain ridiculous ..extreme ridiculous.

Top 5 Sports That Would Put Miami Athletics Back on the Map
Article by amcguire
Earlier this week, Donna Shalala, President of the University of Miami sent letters of gratitude to both Penn State and Syracuse. In her messages Shalala graciously thanked the schools' athletic departments for their roles in scandals that various media outlets have widely proclaimed as being the most shocking and inexcusable in the history of college sports. Shalala described the incidents as being "totally worse than the whole Nevin Shapiro incident."
Shalala's letters certainly contain a fair amount of truth, as just about every sports network and news station has
stopped all coverage of the University of Miami's scandal, in which a former booster allegedly offered thousands of dollars worth of gifts, dinners, and other undeniably awesome swag to former UM football players. It resulted in the suspension of a number of student-athletes and the story was plastered across headlines all over the country, as journalists in desperate need of something juicy to talk about screamed for the NCAA to give the Hurricanes the "death penalty." Luckily for the "Canes, the Penn State and Syracuse scandals immediately stole the spotlight away from the shady activities going on behind of the scenes of Miami's football program. So much so, in fact, that some University of Miami officials have begun to insist that the booster scandal never even happened in the firstplace.
Said one anonymous member of the athletic department, "Nevin who? I'm sorry, but the only thing scandalous around here is how well our nationally ranked tanning squad is doing!" Taylor Mckillop, a freshman at the University of Miami, said, "I'm so glad to hear the news about Penn State and Syracuse! Now when I go home for break I don't have to worry about people talking about Miami and can spend my time making fun of my friends who went to Penn State and Syracuse! It ROCKS."
Shalala concluded her touching letter to Penn St. and Syracuse with one last word of thanks: "The increase of scandals has done wonders for the University of Miami's reputation, and I know I speak for the entire student body her at UM, when I say thank you from the bottom of our hearts. It really goes to show that college athletics promotes the best in all of us."
*UPDATE: According to inside sources, other institutions across the land have started to repay the favor with scandals other their own in order to further split up the disjointed and highly volatile 24 hour news networks. FSU's EJ Manuel was caught Jaywalking on a public road, in clear violation of NCAA statute number 3, resulting in an unappealable punishment of 30,000 dollars and a loss of 14 scholarships. Another developing scandal reportedly involves Baylor's Robert Griffin, winner of this year's Heisman trophy, who was allegedly caught throwing a piece of trash on the ground and not recycling. These allegations, if true, would of course require Griffin to vacate his winning of the Heisman.

Helping Trapped Souls never gets old for this paranormal team.
Another great story based on the likable paranormal team, Sam Firecloud and Lacey Fitzpatrick. The characters are following a long arc and in this book have come together, determined to make things work out for them personally as well as professionally.
I enjoyed this creative duo and that they are open to new things, willing to sacrifice in order to help others. The construction worker medium and the ex-cop researcher both work toward the same goal---to help trapped souls. No matter how things evolve, they keep their ground and listen to their hearts.
These characters are very identifiable. Even on their bad day, you can't help but admire them. The story is a quick read, great for those moments in the day when you want to chillax. Melissa Bowersock writes well, the pace flows smoothly and the scenes put the reader right there on a comfy sofa or in the middle of the action.
This is definitely a great series for those readers who like paranormal ghost stories without gore, quick easy, enjoyable storytelling.


These are such pretty feminine earrings. The largest gemstone is a beautifully faceted oval Cubic Zirconia with two small Pearls, one is round and the other is oval. A classic feminine piece that will always be in vogue! Length:3cms/1inch.


A group of Asian industry veterans have teamed up with leading regional distributor Front Row Filmed Entertainment to launch a new distribution company with a mission to serve the sizable Filipino population in the region.
Filipino Brillante Mendoza receives the best director award for his movie Kinatay during the Closing Ceremony of the 62nd Cannes Film Festival on May 24 2009 in Cannes.
In a sign of the growing expat entertainment potential in the region, movies from the Philippines are set to reach a wider audience in the Middle East. Following the launch of new distributor Gulf Asia Entertainment, theatrical releases of ten to twelve Filipino movies are set to released in cinemas across the Gulf region.
Gulf Asia Entertainment is formed as a joint partnership of five regional film industry veterans. The consortium of executives includes former Fox executive vice president for Asia Pacific Sunder Kimatrai, and Front Row Filmed Entertainment's Gianluca Chakra, Vicente Del Rosario Jr, CEO of the Philippines Viva Entertainment; Shravan Shroff, former managing director of Indian exhibitor Fame India; and Anish Wadhwa, CEO of UAE-based distributor Home Screen Entertainment.
Through Front Row, Gulf Asia Entertainment will distribute Filipino and Southeast Asian content in the Middle East. The new venture's mission will be to capitalise on the growing entertainment needs of the large Filipino and South East Asian diaspora in the region. The Filipino expat community in the Middle East is the second largest in the world, with a population of over 2.5 million, including 1.2 million in Saudi Arabia and 800,000 in the UAE.
"The Filipino community is the third largest community in the UAE, but unlike the audience for Indian films of various languages, Filipinos residing in the GCC are massive spenders and intensely socially active who regularly attend Filipino events and the occasional film that is released. Our aim is to tap into this market and expand by releasing Pinoy films on a day-and-date basis with the Philippines across major cinemas in the GCC as well as on VOD and on digital and soon enough, bring in live events and concerts," said Del Rosario Jr.
Hit romantic drama 'Never Not Love You' is slated to be the first release on April 19, with Filipino romantic drama Sid & Aya to follow on May 31.
"The UAE market and Saudi Arabi aren't the only markets we are eyeing. There are another 500,000 across Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman. There is a real market waiting to be developed. And with the Middle East and North Africa expansion and the introduction of cinemas in Saudi, we see this becoming a real opportunity," said Kimatrai.
Saudi Arabia is set to become a major cinema market following the recent decision allowing cinemas to operate again. Vox, AMC and Kuwait National Cinema Company (KNCC), in partnership with Front Row, have already announced plans to open theatres in the territory.
"While we cover Western and Arab film distribution, Asian and specifically Filipino content is indeed a natural progression. With the partners in place, this could only prove to be a significantly interesting move in satisfying a vast audience that has never been properly served in the region," said Chakra.
Meanwhile streaming giant Netflix has picked up drug war drama "AMO" as its first series from the Philippines, airing globally from April 9. The show was produced by broadcaster TV5 and directed by Brillante Mendoza.

Impressions of the Monkey Island boxed set 18 Dec, 2021 / 4 comments
The long-awaited Monkey Island anthology boxed set from Limited Run Games began shipping this month, and fans who have been receiving the apparently gargantuan package have been sharing their reactions to finally having in their hands the irresponsible purchase they made twelve months ago. Some of those reactions have been enthusiastic, some have been heartbreaking, and almost all of them can be found in this forum thread.
Rather than try to recap that ongoing discussion which reveals many more details, I thought I'd at least front page what's been learned about the actual game builds included. Limited Run's original product listing mentioned (and in fact still does) that "archived versions" of the first two games would be included, with specifics to be determined.
Well, now that people have begun exploring the USB stick included with the package, we have a clearer idea of what that actually means. It seems that there are a few versions of Monkey 1 and Monkey 2 offered in the form of disk images and KryoFlux streams (for the uninitiated, see here), which is pretty exciting, as it represents the first time those games have been officially available with their original .exe files since the internet age.
So, what versions of the five Monkey Island games wound up on that flash drive in the end? The breakdown appears to be as follows:
MI1: Amiga version diskette images and flux streams; IBM EGA version diskette images and flux streams (5.25"), IBM VGA floppy version diskette images and flux streams (3.5"); special edition.
MI2: Amiga version diskette images and flux streams; IBM version diskette images and flux streams (3.5"); Macintosh version diskette images and flux streams; special edition.
CMI: The installer seems to be the same as the GOG version, which means the resource files are bundled with ScummVM, and the original .exe is not included.
EMI: The installer seems to be the same as the GOG version, which as far as I know translates to a faithful, as-is copy of version 1.1.
TMI: Includes the Earl Boen'd version of Episode 1, which is I believe the only variable that would have applied to this game. We were wrong, its the original non-Boen version.
Beyond obscure/translated versions of the games which probably would have been too much to ask for, the main absences appear to be the CD version of Monkey 1 (though that's essentially included in the Special Edition as "classic mode") and CMI's original interpreter, the latter being a huge, and hugely addressable, bummer from a preservation perspective despite the fact that it's notoriously helpless on modern Windows. Really pleased about EGA Monkey 1*, though, and if you're gonna get one version of VGA Monkey 1, surely it's just that it be the one with the stump joke.
Among the physical extras, the book was the biggest unknown and also sounds like the biggest highlight. At over 200 pages, it's said to contain a lot of terrific content (including new interviews) especially for the first two games. It's a shame to think of it as being exclusive to a mega-priced collector's box that won't be re-issued and is destined in many cases to sit shrink-wrapped in temperature-controlled cabinets, so here's hoping Limited Run finds a way to make those pages available on their own some day for the enjoyment of fans who aren't pulling in Jazz Age incomes.
Special thanks: Jan.
*Don't worry though, we can Glass Is Half Empty that one too: zaarin points out that it's lacking the Roland MT-32 upgrade disk.

Hockey World Cup 2023 | Won't think about the goal difference a lot, says Graham Reid
India has been performing well in the Hockey World Cup 2023 and has to continue to do so. They need a big win over wales to qualify directly for the quarterfinals of the FIH Men's Hockey World Cup.
Coach Graham Reid stressed on Wednesday that the hosts will not be distracted by that concept from the outset and will play a regular game.
England is currently leading the pool thanks to a higher point differential. India is currently sitting in the second spot with 4 points and will face Wales in their last league game encounter.
After two games, India and England have four points apiece, with the latter leading on goal difference — plus five to India's plus three. India, on the other hand, will have the advantage of knowing exactly what to do before their last Pool D encounter, which will take place after England's game against Spain on Thursday.
"That (knowing what to do before a match) is fair enough but we will not be fixated on it in the beginning. Doing that will be dangerous," Ried said at the pre-match press conference.
"We will play our natural game, keep simple and remain patient. We can wake up from there," he added.
When asked about India's goal drought, Reid replied, "There is no specific reason for that. I would have been worried if we were not creating opportunities. But we have been creating opportunities. Only thing lacking is the finishing. We are hoping that will come soon."
The MRI results of injured player Hardik Singh were withheld by the Australian. Hardik is most likely going to miss the match against Wales after suffering a hamstring injury at the conclusion of the scoreless draw against England on Sunday.
"His MRI report was much better than what we had thought of. We are hoping that he will be playing in the tournament," Reid said.
Reid said, "We will decide tomorrow." When asked if India will name 17 players instead of 18, Reid stated, "We will decide tomorrow."
When asked whether the FIH had considered changing the penalty corner hit regulations to allow defensive players more time to react so that they are safe from the high-speed ball from drag-flicks, Captain Harmanpreet Singh responded: "I think it will be good if the PC defenders have more time. It will not affect conversion rate as it (PC conversion) is all about timing (of the drag-flicker). It will not be affected by PC defenders getting more time."


Gardening with kids offers so many rewards and benefits. It connects them to the food they eat and can entice them to try new things that they've grown themselves. It also teaches them patience as they await that first seedling popping up out of the soil.
We are doing some garden chemistry–the boys started their seedlings for the garden using the Burpee Seed Starting Greenhouse Kits. Each of the boys chose a pack of seeds to plant: they planted jalapenos, cucumbers, and carrots, and I planted a tray of tomatoes.
The little greenhouse kits come with little compacted "tablets" of soil in a tray, which makes gardening with kids even easier. First you add warm water to the tray, then you watch and wait as the soil tablets magically absorb the water and expand to fill the tray. The boys had great fun with this as their soil magically grew and grew.
After a few minutes, the mounds are soft enough to plant the seeds. It's easy to just poke them in with your fingers and pat the soil gently over the top.
Then, you just snap on the clear lid, and set them somewhere warm to "cook." The humidity builds up pretty quickly, so they stay moist for days. We are checking them daily for signs of life and misting them using a water bottle sprayer about once or twice a week.
The boys are already asking when their plants will grow and can't wait to get started tracking their growth.
That is so awesome to see the traditions being past on! Good job!
Nice–hope you post a picture when the seeds sprout! Well done! And thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving a nice comment–I appreciate it!
What a great hand-on science lesson! I need to get busy and get my seeds started!
Looks like a fun way to start seeds and to turn kids into life-long gardeners!
The garden is such a great place for kids to learn.
I would love for you to link this up to The Homeschool Village – Garden Link Up!!
Great activity! I can't see how they turn out. I really want to plant my own garden.
This makes me want to plant something!
This is a great project for spring. We'll be out in the yard this holiday replanting some of our Plumeria. They grow so tall they tip over! We make these little seed cups to grow different grass/hays that our bunny loves!
Looks like fun, mess free gardening. Such an easy and wonderful activity to teach kids where their food comes from and very fulfilling when they see their own sprouts start to grow. My kids have tried many food they wouldn't have simply because they grew or picked it themselves. Looks like a nice seed kit!
I don't have a green thumb at all, so one of these gardening kits would definitely be the way to go when giving it a go with the kiddos!


One of my favorite places to take the girls for a morning outing is the Bayan Botanical Gardens at Bayan Palace. The gardens are only open to the public on Thursdays from 9:30am to 1:30pm so its something special when we have a chance to go.
The gardens are comprised of manicured lawns with grass, fresh flowers and small ponds and three massive green houses. There are thousands of plants representing six different gardens and four different climate zones including tropical, dry, Mediterranean and European environments. There are small waterfalls, a pond with some fish and a sitting area for those who want to take a break and relax.
The gardens make the perfect field trip or play date destination. There is no good or drink available, however so be sure to bring water for the kiddos. We've visited several times since it opened in 2015 & always discover something new each time we go.
Entrance is free but you should bring your Civil ID & register at the reception.


– by Sri Sadguru Sivapremanandaji.
Some people have a very misconception, other day they came and asked – Guruji, is Srividya Sadhak can do Bagalamukhi Sadhana? They think that it is a black magic goddess. Am literally telling, somebody told them that it is a black magic goddess, you should not worship her otherwise Lalithambika will be not coming to you… I was surprised! – Bagalamukhi , Lalithambika same – and both are coming from Srikula.
Bagalamukhi is not a black magic goddess. Of course, she can be used in tantras, she can be used in tantras, because she has taken that form. Kali also like this- she can be used as a tantric goddess to harm at the same time positive.
Even Ganapathy is also like that – Ucchista Ganapathy is used for a negative purpose also – becaue its Ucchista – the energy i.e. left over energy of creation I can use it for positive also..its like electricity -use it for light a lamp or burn something. So, these are the energies that can be used in a positive or negative.
Bagalamukhi is not just that! please understand. So, she is the one if you really bow down , surrender to the Bagalamukhi she is very very helpful. She brings such a great transformation in your life – amazing results.
She also gives you self-realization and god-realization.
