Gervonta "Tank" Davis has given up his WBA 130 lb title, which is the one of the three WBA belts he held that anyone considered a legit title, and will keep his secondary "world" (aka "regular") titles at 135 and 140 for the time being, according to ESPN.
Mike Coppinger also reports that Davis (25-0, 24 KO) will have to give up one of those, too, after he figures out what his next fight is going to be, and at what weight. This is part of the WBA relenting — against their will, really — on the absolutely absurd number of world titleholders they recognize across the sport. Boxing fans and media and everyone else remain rightly skeptical that this will stick long term, but the sanctioning body is making the moves at the moment, too, including vacating all "interim" titles, none of which had any legitimate reason to exist.
The 25-year-old Davis won the WBA 130 lb belt from Leo Santa Cruz last October, and his illegitimate 135 lb belt against Yuriorkis Gamboa at the end of 2019, and most recently, the illegitimate 140 lb belt from Mario Barrios in June.
The WBA's 130 lb title situation will now come down to secondary titlist Roger Gutierrez and ex-interim titlist Chris Colbert, which is a good fight. They have until Sept. 15 to come to terms before a purse bid is ordered. If Davis had chosen not to vacate this belt, he would have had to face the winner at some point, but it seems "Tank" is likely done fighting at 130. There are bigger money fights at 135 and 140; whether he takes those is another question.


Community health workers (CHWs) are increasingly being used to improve the health of people in developing countries by providing services and important health information to individuals, addressing topics such as hygiene practices, importance of antenatal and postnatal care for women, significance of birth control and reproductive health, and ways in which certain fatal diseases are transmitted and can be prevented. Consequently, it is very important to learn the effect of these CHWs on people with inadequate or no access to health services.
While there has been research on the role of CHWs on some of these issues, there have been very few studies that use an actual experimental setting to precisely examine the role of CHWs in improving people's health awareness, use of preventive health measures, and final health outcomes. This project will examine these relationships using a unique experiment in Uganda. BRAC, a development organization, conducted a randomized controlled trial in 129 villages in Central and Northern regions of Uganda where they introduced CHWs in areas in Uganda that have never been exposed to CHWs. BRAC collected household survey data before and after CHWs were introduced in the area (2010 and 2012). This project will address the following research questions: 1) Do community health workers lead individuals to have greater hygiene practices or increase the likelihood of using precautionary measures against diseases? 2) Do community health workers lead to greater health awareness and understanding among the people in the area whom they serve? 3) Do community health workers (by providing affordable contraceptives and information on family planning) lead to greater use of family planning methods and lower fertility? Understanding whether CHWs have an influence on their clients can help inform future policies and program decisions on the use and effectiveness of CHWs.


Thousands of disabled children and adults in the UK have continence issues and as a result of their disabilities cannot use a toilet at all or require a hoist in order to do so. My son Brody can't use a toilet and is still in nappies. At 4 years old he is far too big for a baby changing table. But what's the alternative?
And sadly, we share this dilemma with thousands of other families.
I started campaigning for Changing Places and Space To Change toilets earlier this year, after starting a bigger nappy campaign. I wrote a blog about the issue, which was front page of Mumsnet Bloggers Network and blog of the day on Tots 100 (massively grateful to them both for recognising the importance of the issue). It appeared on several sites and had thousands of shares. But I'm not telling you this to blow my own trumpet. Not in the slightest. Because trust me, the notes on that trumpet would be completely flat. It sadly made no difference. What so ever. For a brief moment I naively thought that perhaps it would help sway some minds. Don't get me wrong, I didn't think a simple blog would change the world, but I had thought when starting out campaigning that surely it would be simple to change opinion and perhaps get this issue in the media. I mean this issue is huge and its 2016! Surely equality and accessibility is championed these days. But I was so wrong. And boy do I feel foolish.
I really don't understand why this issue isn't newsworthy.
It's actually quite depressing how little the world cares about accessibility and accessible toilets. There are so many campaigners doing all that they can to encourage and promote Changing Places and Space To Change facilities. They write amazing blogs and articles, they contact businesses near and afar and they shout – constantly – from the rooftops of Facebook and Twitter. They are a collective force but sadly for some reason it isn't enough to put an end to this problem. Get the movers and shakers to actually take notice.
Campaigners do all of the things that you could imagine and more. From tweeting celebs who might be able to raise the profile on this issue, like Katie Price (sadly, she's not listening), to starting petitions that attract thousands of signatures. You name it; they've no doubt tried it – at least once.
But we can't give up. This is very much our reality. And we need the world to change. We do this for our loved ones because it's an appalling position for them to be in. And they don't have the voice to shout about the injustice of it all. As their parents and carers you better believe we will fight for them – and for others too.
This isn't right. It's not fair.
How is it okay for society to think that it's acceptable for me to change Brody on a toilet floor covered in over 77,000 germs?
Maybe some people agree that it isn't, but it doesn't affect them so they carry on with an out of sight, out of mind attitude. Maybe it's because there is a (relatively small in the grand scheme of things) financial cost to my sons needs and he isn't worth that much to them.
Campaigning is an uphill battle and I am so grateful to everyone who takes the time to do it. To my campaigning friends – thank you. To everyone who campaigns – thank you. It's so sad that this – a basic human right and something people should be able to do with dignity – is something we actually have to fight for.
If you are reading this please help us campaign. There are so many ways that you can. You can sign this petition. You can share this blog or any other blogs that you read about accessible disabled toilets. You can tell businesses about this problem and ask them to consider installing these facilities – there is never any harm in asking! Maybe you will make all the difference.

Joe Walsh Drops Out Of 2020 GOP Race, Vows To Vote Democrat: "I Would Rather Have A Socialist In The WH Than A Dictator, Than A king"
[Image source: Fox News & CNN video screenshots. The Freedom Times compilation].
Posted By: Lindsey Michelle February 7, 2020
Republican presidential candidate, Joe Walsh, announced on Friday the end of his 2020 campaign during an interview with CNN and also on Twitter. "I'm suspending my campaign, but our fight against the Cult of Trump is just getting started. I'm committed to doing everything I can to defeat Trump and his enablers this November. I can't do it alone," he tweeted.
This comes after Walsh got booed in Iowa when he asked GOP voters if they "wanted 4 more years of President Trump." Walsh won 1% of the Iowa Republican Caucus. President Trump won 97%.
Friday on CNN, Joe Walsh told CNN host John Berman: "I am ending my candidacy for President of the United States. Look, I got into this because I thought it was really important that there was a Republican out there every day calling out this president for how unfit he is."
"I wanna stop Trump. I believe he's a threat to this country. He can't be stopped within the Republican party, nobody can beat him. It's Trump's party, John. It's not a party, It's a cult. He can't be beaten in the Republican primary, so there's no reason for me or any candidate really, to be in there," he continued. "The party has become a cult."
Walsh claimed that he didn't see how "cult-like" the Republican Party has become. "The conservative media world, Fox News and all the rest wouldn't give me the time of day. … They bow down in front of their king. And then, out there talking to Republican voters, I just became convinced that these folks have been fed nothing but lies and mistruths about President Trump and they can't be gotten back."
He also told Berman that he will help elect "any Democrat nominee" and he will vote Democrat in 2020. (Continued Below)
"Donald Trump is a dictator, he's a king. He literally is the greatest threat to this country right now, "Walsh claimed. "Any Democrat would be better than Trump in the White House. That's not an easy thing for me to say, but that tells you how serious this moment is."
When asked what Democratic he would most likely or excited to support, Walsh responded, "I don't know that yet. I think it's an interesting field. I'm going to spend a lot of my time trying to talk these next few months to Republicans and moderates and independents– to encourage them that your only option is a Democrat. It's not Trump, it's not the cult."
Berman told Walsh that Republicans didn't want to hear what Walsh had to say and asked him what makes him think he can convince them, to which Walsh claimed, "Because a lot of people have left the Republican Party." (Video Below)
"He's got his core cult-like following that can't be reached. But there are a lot of Republicans, the moderates, on the margins. There are a lot of independents who are undecided right now," Walsh said.
Asked if he would support Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren, Walsh declared, "I would rather have a socialist in the White House than a dictator, than a king, than Donald Trump." [Emphasis added].

I'm suspending my campaign, but our fight against the Cult of Trump is just getting started. I'm committed to doing everything I can to defeat Trump and his enablers this November. I can't do it alone. Join me at https://t.co/d40HA9h2Kz.

Joe Walsh ended his sad, humiliating bid for the Republican nomination today.
Let's remember the highlights of his campaign, like when he asked this GOP Iowa caucus if they *really want* "4 more years of @realDonaldTrump?"

Walsh is a conservative radio show host and former Republican congressman from Illinois, who was part of the Tea Party conservative movement. In 2016 Walsh wrote on Twitter that he planned to vote for Trump.
On November 8th, I'm voting for Trump.
On November 9th, if Trump loses, I'm grabbing my musket.

OVERVIEW PDF
THE BSB
The BSB exists to help raise standards of behaviour and competence across the UK banking sector, to the benefit of customers, clients, the economy and society as a whole. It is a private sector body funded by membership subscriptions and open to all banks and building societies operating in the UK.
Through its annual Assessment exercise, policy work, events programme and collaboration with a wide range of organisations in the UK and internationally, the BSB provides challenge, support and scrutiny for firms committed to rebuilding the banking sector's reputation.
In 2017, the BSB conducted the largest ever survey of behaviour, competence and culture in UK banking. We received over 36,000 responses to our Survey, with a further 750 people participating in detailed focus groups. This research was conducted across different business lines and functions in 25 banks and building societies in locations around the UK. We also interviewed 71 senior executives and board members. Building on our 2016 Survey and assessment of 22 firms, this data allows us to observe the cultures of banks and building societies as seen from significant numbers of people who work there, together with what may be changing over time.
KEY FINDINGS FROM THE 2017 ASSESSMENT
The 2017 Survey results showed improvements from 2016 on 25 of our 36 questions and a decline in none, with the most significant improvements being in employees' perceptions of their senior leaders, being treated with respect, and their sense of shared purpose. Improvements in employee perceptions were most evident in Retail and in Commercial Banking. While the 2017 results paint a picture of firms moving in the right direction, it is important to emphasise that two data points do not make a trend, and we cannot be certain that these improvements in employee perceptions have translated to improvements in customer and societal outcomes.
On the three themes the BSB set out for 2017/18 our research provides evidence to suggest that:
People are more likely to believe that their organisation lives its values if they observe their leaders doing the same, and where they see their firm acting in the interests of its customers or clients. In 2017, on average 69% of employees saw no conflict between their organisation's values and the way in which business was done. While a 6 percentage point improvement from 2016, there was a significant range within and between firms on this question. It is what senior leaders do, and not just what they say, that makes a difference. In areas where employees observed close alignment between values and business practices, they said that their leaders did not just talk about their firm's values, but that they did so without cynicism and demonstrated them to guide their day-to-day actions. They observed consistent, practical and relatable communications from their leaders, coupled with a genuine desire to listen and respond to feedback. They also felt that their firm's values were reflected in the products offered to customers. In contrast, in areas of greater perceived conflict, people said that their leaders did not clearly explain decisions or how they fitted with the firm's overall strategy, and felt that the need to reduce costs or maximise short-term profits was prioritised over achieving good customer outcomes.
Employees' perceptions of whether they and their colleagues are treated fairly and with respect is strongly associated with their wellbeing. In 2017, 26% of people felt that working in their organisation was having a negative impact on their health and wellbeing. As in 2016, this was one of the lowest-scoring areas of the BSB's Survey, across all areas of banking. People working in investment banking, were the least likely to see pressure in their roles as excessive, yet more likely to experience work having a negative impact on their wellbeing, suggesting their concept what is 'excessive' differs from other areas in banking. In areas of firms with the lowest scores for this question, employees commonly described what they saw as inconsistent and unfair treatment within their organisation of different departments, teams or geographic areas. People from most business areas gave examples of wellbeing support and services provided by their firm (helplines, health checks, gym membership, etc.), which suggests that this provision is not on its own enough to achieve good wellbeing outcomes. Equally, other initiatives such as flexible working were described in some areas as positive, and more negatively in others, with a key differentiating factor appearing to be the extent to which people felt trusted to do their jobs.
While some employees do not speak up because they fear negative consequences, a belief that nothing will be done to address their concerns is an equally important barrier. 60% of employees reported that they would not be worried about negative consequences for themselves if they raised concerns, from 57% in 2016, with still over a quarter of people fearing such consequences. Employees in areas of firms with the lowest scores for questions related to speaking up consistently referred to a culture of fear and blame, and often spoke about their organisation as being hierarchical. Of the reasons given for not wanting to raise concerns, those most frequently given were fear that doing so would be held against them, or that it would not be kept confidential. Equally important, though, was the belief that nothing would be done to address the issue, with employees in lower-scoring areas highlighting working environments in which changes perceived as flawed were pushed through with little or no consultation of those affected.
OUR WORK IN 2017
The BSB continues to work with its member firms and others, including regulators, investors, consumer bodies, professional bodies, trades unions and leading academics, to identify how to achieve high standards of behaviour and competence in banking. In 2017, this work included a range of projects and programmes:
Consulting on a new Consumer Framework to identify what good banking outcomes look like to consumers. Developed in consultation with consumer and civil society organisations, we received over 80 responses.
Publishing a set of guiding principles to help and challenge firms in seeking to raise standards of professionalism. Developed with the support of our Professionalism Forum, chaired by Sir Brendan Barber and attended by a broad range of interested stakeholders and subject matter experts, we propose that firms use these principles to inform their work.
Publishing additional detailed statements of good practice to help make a success of the Certification Regime. Building on the good practice guidance published in 2017, our latest guidance – published in February – focuses on risks and issues that may call in to question an individual's fitness and/or propriety, and provides firms with a series of real-life case studies and examples drawn from our Certification Regime Working Group.
Commissioning a comprehensive review of academic literature relating to wellbeing in the workplace, to better understand the theoretical and empirical work that has been done on this subject across different disciplines and sectors.
An innovative events programme that brought to the banking industry insights from leaders in other industries such as healthcare and defence, and innovative techniques from academic experts in culture and behaviour. An example of the latter was our ethnography programme, which gave practitioners practical tools to allow them to observe behaviour in their respective organisations.
2018 AND ONWARDS
We will build on this work in 2018 in a number of ways, including those described here:
Launching an Insights Unit that will seek to identify and understand cultural factors that enable, promote or inhibit high standards in banking. Over time this unit will also seek to test the effectiveness of interventions designed to overcome such barriers.
Running the Assessment for a third consecutive year with a greater number of firms.
Creating a BSB Member Panel comprising senior practitioners from our member firms. The Panel will discuss ways to raise standards of professionalism, referencing the BSB's Professionalism Principles, supported by task-specific working groups.
Continuing to develop the BSB's three themes of reducing the gap between values and how business is done; encouraging a culture of accountability and responsibility but not blame; and improving employee wellbeing in the interests of customers, society and employees themselves, including through our Assessment and Insights work.
Publishing a response to our consultation on our Consumer Framework, including next steps for better understanding consumer outcomes more broadly.
Expanding our events programme, focusing in particular on facilitating the exchange of ideas between our member firms, to allow them to learn from each other.
Planning to run a second cohort of our ethnography programme, following the success of this initiative last year.
NEXT SECTION: CHAIRMAN'S FOREWORD


Twins….we see them and think, "Wow, how crazy! How do you take care of two babies at once?" My children are 16 months apart, and that felt crazy enough. But two babies needing to eat at the same time, crying at the same time, and sleeping at different times! How do parents of twins do it? Well, I have shots twins before, but this was a real treat. Naadia and Emmanuelle seemed like pros and the girls were only a few weeks old!
Naadia and Emanuelle hired me to take photos of their little girls. Naadia called and said she didn't want another day to go by without capturing Imani and Naima's essence. I was excited to photograph the girls, as they were born 7 weeks early and were now 3 weeks old. So tiny!
I was instantly impressed with how relaxed the parents were, right off the bat. They had a great sense of humor, which in my opinion is the key to making any hard situation, easier. They had everything down to a science. These did not seem like first time parents at all. Do twins bring out the "pro" parent in you? You can not physically attend to every little cry, there are two of them! I guess you learn which cries are the really important ones and which ones are the fakes. If babies had it their way they would have you hold them every minute of the day, that just isn't possible, is it?
I figured the shoot would be tough because newborn shoots can be tricky, trying to keep them happy and sleepy, but two babies, that was going to be really tough…wrong. I had so much fun! The girls were little angels. They slept so much. Daddy made up some pretty funny songs to calm Imani and Naima, they made me laugh. I left signing the poo poo, pee pee song. The girls were adorable, that always helps too! Enjoy the photos….

reports which identify their legal risk for a trademark suit based on their company name and industry. These reports are assembled by hand with results from manual database searches in extremely inefficient fashion. Our client, Naming Matters, produces these reports like these using state and federal trademark registries. However, these reports do not include the risk of lawsuits from companies with common-law trademarks.
A common law trademark is owned by a company with an established reputation and history of operation in a certain industry. Common-law trademarks apply to companies providing similar products or services with identical or similar-sounding names. Our task was to use potential company name and industry pairings to identify potential common-law trademarks that may pose a risk for suit associated with the company names being considered by Naming Matters customers.
document or a more specific excerpt) to do common-law trademark recognition using natural language processing. The process of creating and finding the training datasets for this was a defining part of the project, albeit slow. After looking into our options, we decided to use two different approaches to modeling and constructing training data based on the databases and sources we found access to while researching.
The first method focuses on deriving some value and information about whether a company name is found in a block of unstructured text using a convolutional neural network implementation. We knew a neural network would be ideal for processing unstructured text, but would require an immense amount of training data identifying positive and negative cases of words representing company names. The only large dataset which fit these requirements was the NYT Annotated Corpus, which contained a tag for organizations. This model is a very valuable addition to the normal process for identifying common-law trademarks, especially when looking at large chunks of unstructured texts.
The second method focuses on using text results from queries of article databases which we process with feature engineering and feed into models which could create a risk score for trademark suit. We invested in creating a second, smaller training dataset more appropriate for logistic and tree-based models. In addition, we created a clean front end for this method. With a Random Forest model leveraging current tools to do the process start-to-finish, and a CNN/NLP model customized for trademarks and that could be incorporated in case full text is available, we have created two interesting methods to help identify possible common-law trademarks and the associated risk.

Hitch-hiking: A Course in Personal Development?
In the year 1984 the (East) Berlin police recorded 9 murdered hitch-hikers of which 7 were short distance hitchers and 2 were long distance hitchers.
Between April 1981 and February 1988 the Berlin Police registered 59 crimes among short distance hitch-hikers in Berlin. Of these 53 occurred after 7 pm.
The message there of course is that hitching home from the pub or disco of a night is what kills most hitchers by a long way. But I don't want here to talk about risks just yet; there will be time for that later. Instead, I'd like to turn back to the first quote, taking note that only two out of nine dead hitchers were long-distance hitchers.
Well, there are two ways you might explain a discrepancy like that. Firstly, there may be many more short-distance hitchers than long-distance hitchers, and I have to confess that's a strong possibility. The authors don't enter into any speculation on the matter though and it remains a mystery for now.
. . . the risk of falling victim to a crime while hitch-hiking is strongly defined by the process of interaction between the driver and passenger.
What are they saying here? Well, I don't want to present pages of extracts here, and you'll have to accept my representation, I guess. Essentially, they argue that hitch-hiking crimes (with the exception of pre-planned crimes) don't just happen to you, they are much rather the product of a process of interaction between the driver(s) and passenger(s) and each of the players has a hand in the game and a chance to control the outcome. They are describing a social game here, not a physical game. It has to do with a relationship (driver-passenger) and the evolution and management of that relationship.
Well, I was pleased to read this from the German police, to be honest. It added a voice of respect, so to speak, to an idea that had been bouncing around in the back of my mind for a long time. Let me approach from another angle and see whether you agree.
Hitch-hiking is unusual in my experience in that it puts the hitch-hiker in a situation where, for the most part, some form of conversation or entertainment is expected. It's a rare ride where the driver and passenger travel in silence. So there is little option as a rule, and the hitch-hiker is more or less obliged to converse if not actually pressed to it. Add to that the fact that the partner in the conversation, the driver, is a person not taken from the hitch-hiker's own social circle, but could be anyone. As a result, the hitch-hiker is often sitting beside and conversing with someone they may have nothing to do with, by choice, in their day-to-day life.
To further complicate the situation, there is a kind of pressure to get on. The hitch-hiker has time to spend with this driver and it's in the hitch-hiker's interest to get along and avoid any stress, so to speak. I mean, who wants to spend an hour or more in a car with a pile of stress in the air? Most of the time it's a bit hard to say "Well, you're a bloody idiot, and could you please just let me out right here thank you."
This applies from time to time when the driver is clearly a racist, sexist, bigot or any other type of fiend the hitch-hiker may in actuality carry considerable disrespect for. In the extreme, this driver may even be an axe-murderer after all.
Now we're getting onto the BKA's territory again. That is, unless this axe-murderer has set out with preconceived intention of killing (and the BKA argue that while this is possible, it is no more likely that you'll run into this kind of person while hitch-hiking than anywhere or anytime else in your life), the question of whether or not he does kill is one in which the hitch-hiker has a stake and a hand to play. Depending entirely upon how the hand is played, the hitcher may live or die.
This is an extreme expression of the more general observation that, depending upon how the hand is played, the hitch-hiker may maintain an agreeable relationship with the driver or suffer a stressful confrontation. This is true if the stressful confrontation is only the exchange of some bad feelings, judgments, unpleasant body language or violent blows. The expressions of a smooth relationship and a dysfunctional relationship will be very situation- and participant-specific.
So now we come back to the observed possibility that the long-distance hitch-hiker is less likely to be murdered than the short-distance hitch-hiker. I'm suggesting, of course, that the long-distance hitch-hiker has much more experience at hitch-hiking, and as a result much more practice at getting along with a diverse range of people. As a result, the long-distance hitch-hiker may have better relationship management skills, may be better able to avert a confrontation or may be a better diplomat basically, than the short distance hitch-hiker. The short-distance hitch-hiker, with a ride of a quarter hour or so, can just hold his breath and get out when the moment comes.
That, in any case, is my personal experience. I have ridden with bigots, racists and violently emotive people on occasion. Believe me, I had to find a way to converse fluidly, exchanging ideas and notions, without offering the true depth of my feelings. In another situation, on more solid ground, I would have been much more aggressive. I have no trouble shouting down racists and bigots from a position of comfortable security. I admit it, I'm a coward. Sitting next to a driver I met only moments ago, on the driver's territory, carrying a certain gratitude for the ride and all, I am not about to stand by my deepest principles, at least not too loudly and vehemently. If I do at all, then it is in moderation and softly. In essence, I am compelled to be diplomatic.
My suggestion then, is that regular hitch-hiking compels a person to practice diplomacy, that regular hitch-hiking can help to develop a personality, to strip away the brash certainties of youth, bring one face to face with the diversity of human opinion and nature, and compel one to learn how to get on with people. In short, hitch-hiking can work as a course in personality development.
Outward Bound, by the way, is an international school that offers all of these things in an endurance course, putting you together with 10 other people and making you live out of one another's pockets for a month of ordeals. They have nothing though to do with hitch-hiking — they have enough insurance problems as it is. I undertook just such a course in 1991, and the similarities strike me as noteworthy, though Outward Bound goes to some trouble to create confronting situations between participants, while the hitch-hiker has to cope with them only haphazardly.
Women hitch-hike because this is accepted as an ordinary practice among certain social groups. They gain thereby the self-confidence boosting experience of being able to overcome even delicate situations.
So they are saying that women who hitch-hike gain confidence over time as they realise that they have a hand to play in managing their relationships with drivers; that they are not mere pawns to whom things happen, but active players in the game; that they master delicate situations from time to time and the experience helps them to win further success on the playing field. This seems to me a good bridge between this month's article and a future article in which I'll talk a little more about women and hitch-hiking.
The BKA report is of course in German, and I have presented translations. For the sake of fairness, I'll cite the original text for two of the quotations in the article above — those that present ideas rather than mere numbers. For the sake of amusement, I'll also present the translation into English that the Alta Vista on-line translator provides, I trust you'll prefer my translations . . .
Original: Abgesehen von vorsaetzlichen Gewaltstraftaten, denen man beim Trampen wie andernorts zum Opfer fallen kann, wird das Opfer-risiko beim Trampen in besonderem Masse durch den Interaktions-prozess zwischen Fahrer und Mitfahrer gepraegt.
Alta Vista: Apart from deliberate force criminal offences, which one can to be fallen with the Trampen as in another place to the victim, the victim risk is coined/shaped with the Trampen in particular by the interaction process between drivers and passengers.
My translation: Apart from pre-planned crimes, to which one can fall victim while hitch-hiking or anywhere else, the risk of falling victim to a crime while hitch-hiking is strongly defined by the process of interaction between the driver and passenger.
Original: Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchengen erklaeren dass Frauen Traempen, weil dies zu normalen Gewohnheiten bestimmter sozialer Bezugspersonen zaehlt. Sie machen dabei die das Selbstbewusstsein foerdernde Erfahrung, auch heikle Situationen ueberwinden zu koennen.

My translation: The results of the analysis suggest that women hitch-hike because this is accepted as an ordinary practice among certain social groups. They gain thereby the self-confidence boosting experience of being able to overcome even delicate situations.

How to Take an Axillary Temperature
Reviewed by: Melanie L. Pitone, MD
Primary Care Pediatrics at Nemours Children's Health
en español Cómo tomar la temperatura axilar
How Do I Take an Axillary Temperature?
The axillary (armpit) method is a convenient way to take a child's temperature, especially for kids who can't hold a thermometer in their mouths. But an axillary (AK-seh-ler-ee) reading is not as accurate as a rectal temperature, or an oral temperature in kids who are old enough to cooperate.
To take an axillary temperature:
Use a digital thermometer. Don't use a glass thermometer, as these aren't safe.
If your child has just taken a bath or has been under blankets or in multiple layers (or swaddled, if an infant), wait about 20–30 minutes to take the temperature.
Remove your child's shirt and place the thermometer under an armpit (it must touch skin only, not clothing).
Fold your child's arm across the chest to hold the thermometer in place.
Wait until you hear the right number of beeps or other signal that the temperature is ready to be read. Write down the number on the screen, noting the time of day that you took the reading.
A reading of 99°F (37.2°C) or above means your child has a fever.

Diversity in the NHS
"Being a member of the NHS isn't an option for every student." - Daisha Williams, 11th Grade (edited by Zoe Jung, 10th Grade)
The National Honor Society is an honor society with chapters all across the United States. Honor societies in this context are basically marks of academic prestige and excellence. The NHS has a set of baseline qualifications and goals, and each chapter is given leeway to interpret these as they see fit. The core values of the NHS are scholarship, service, leadership, and character.
NHS members at OSA are expected to complete two main goals. The first of these is 10 hours of community service outside school each semester. The second is to complete a group project that benefits OSA and its community. Being a member of the NHS is often looked upon as the ultimate academic achievement of any high school student. Members of the NHS have access to scholarships that other students don't, and membership stands out on a college application even without a scholarship. The club is also a great place to learn leadership skills and give back to your community. But being a member of the NHS isn't an option for every student, and some think the NHS favors certain groups.
At OSA, students need a 3.5 GPA to qualify for NHS. According to the NHS website, this is half a point higher than their minimum GPA requirement. Students have opinions on this requirement—most of them skeptical, although one senior thought the GPA bar should be higher because "due to grade inflation, a 3.5 is not a competitive GPA." This senior, however, also thought the NHS could be improved by being smaller and more selective, and exclusivity is hard to align with accessibility and diversity. Cassidy, a junior, pointed out how Honors classes can assist in meeting NHS qualifications, since the five-point grading scale gives students more leeway in maintaining their 3.5 GPA than regular classes where a 3.5 GPA means maintaining almost straight A's. Some people just don't have the time of ability to take Honors classes and reliably pass them. Cheyenne, NHS's Senior President, spoke on this.
"I think the thing about NHS it's like getting to be part of it is an academic honor. But I think that [the GPA requirement is] higher than it should be. I mean, I think that if NHS is about creating, you know, volunteering for the community and developing and implementing projects, and programs, and fundraising, for the betterment of the school, the community, the world, I think that's really something that should just be available." — Cheyenne, NHS Senior President
Some students in the club didn't even know about the GPA requirement.
"If someone was hoping to get into NHS, they wouldn't know what they would have to do without having first learned about the program from someone, have done their own extensive research, and then proceed to do whatever it is that makes you eligible."
— Noah V., Junior
"We need to have over a 3.5 GPA, which is not, I think, accessible for a lot of people because in order to do that, if you're falling behind in certain classes you need outside help. And getting outside help can be harder to do for certain people depending on their financial status." — Sarah, NHS Junior President
The 3.5 GPA is the only requirement to join the NHS. Once a student joins, they have to keep their GPA above 3.5 as well as meeting the community service and group project requirements in order to retain their membership. Students who are eligible for the club receive an email from the NHS advisor during the summer after their sophomore year. After that they have to complete an application that determines whether or not they become a member. The advisor also looks over these applications. The application at OSA is a short essay in which the student talks about their leadership qualities, volunteering experience, who they are as a person, and why they are interested in joining the NHS. Mr. King, who teaches math, is the advisor for the OSA chapter of the NHS. He has been the NHS advisor since the beginning of the 2020-21 school year.
"If a student says I want to be part of this, I want to give back and usually their statements reflect that and say what they're interested in, what they're about. I am going to accept that application unless there's some reason not to. I'm not trying to make extra requirements or make it really difficult for people to get in." — Mr. King
NHS isn't widely known about at OSA. For many students, the eligibility email was the first they heard of it. We sent out a survey to all the NHS members at OSA. 14 out of the 15 respondents found out about NHS because of the eligibility email. The NHS website requires all chapters to publish their membership requirements, but OSA has no mention of NHS on their website. This means there's a relatively small pool of applicants for the NHS. It's not just students who would be interested in it, students who are also able to keep their GPA above a 3.5 without knowing that they need to for this reason.
This is a great opportunity, but it's not available to all students—some think the NHS lacks diversity. Being in the NHS provides students with opportunities for scholarships, and gives them a leg up in the college application process. A lack of diversity in a club like this leads to advantages being offered to mainly one group of students, most likely ones who don't really need them: white, middle- to upper-class students, generally.
One question that was in both interviews and the survey was "Do you think the NHS lacks diversity?" We interviewed two seniors and four juniors in the NHS, and got 15 responses to the survey. In interviews, both seniors claimed their group is very diverse, while juniors said the opposite. Sarah, the NHS Junior President, says the NHS is "mostly white students, white girls." This sentiment is echoed by all four juniors we interviewed. On the other hand, Cheyenne, the NHS Senior President, said she looked at the racial diversity within NHS and found that it about matched OSA's 12th grade racial distribution at roughly 40% white students and 60% students of color. So it may be that the senior class of NHS is simply more diverse than the junior class.
"I think there's like what, three or four people of color in NHS. It's primarily white women." — Noah V., Junior
"Yes I do think NHS lacks diversity a lot, which makes me feel sort of weird when I go to meetings. I don't really know how to explain it, but I just don't like the fact that there aren't a lot of people of color in NHS." — Anonymous Junior
"I'm thinking of everyone in my class and white and asian kids are the majority, so I think it could definitely be improved." — Anonymous Senior
"NHS it's about the same percentages for OSA 12th grade, about 40% white identifying and 60% students of color." — Cheyenne, NHS Senior President
"I think that [the NHS is] an accurate reflection of the group of students that they have, those that are academically eligible and willing to devote the time." — Anonymous Senior
There could be a multitude of reasons that cause the difference in diversity between the junior and senior groups in the NHS. It could be that the junior class as a whole has a vastly different level of diversity than the senior class. It could be that the current NHS seniors recieved their eligibility emails in 2020. Then, a mass email might have reached more people than it would after the era of online learning has ended and created a more diverse group. Unfortunately, it is hard to say what exactly is causing this decrease in diversity in the NHS. In an attempt to fix that, the senior group is working on a project that will raise the profile of the NHS within the OSA community. We'll see how much that helps. This is a systemic problem in the United States, unfortunately, but with effort we may be able to reduce it—at least in our school.

Testamentary Freedom, Moral Obligation, and the Nominal Estate
Hubert Harris died in October 2015. Hubert was married to his second wife Jennifer for nearly 35 years; Jennifer was appointed sole executrix by Hubert's last Will of December 2013.
Hubert's son Andrew applied to the Court for family provision out of the estate or notional estate as the Court thinks ought to be made for the maintenance, education or advancement in life of an eligible person, having regard to the facts known to the Court at the time that the order is made, pursuant to s 59 of the Succession Act 2006 (NSW) (the Act).
Hubert's estate was valued at a little under $8,000. However, a retirement village lease and superannuation benefits from which provision could be made were said to total some $600,000, almost entirely what is described in the Act as "notional estate".
Halliday Shores Retirement Living Pty Ltd owns and operates the retirement village (" retirement village") where Hubert & Jennifer had a 99-year lease; and where Jennifer remains living, as lessee, of the balance of a 99-year lease, Hubert's interest having passed on his death to Jennifer by survivorship.
The superannuation fund Hubert belonged to transferred the superannuation benefits to Jennifer in accordance with his binding death nomination and therefore does not form part of the estate.
At first instance, the Court held that a capable testator's judgement as to who should benefit from their estate should be respected if it can be seen that the testator has duly considered the claims on the estate.
However, the Act interferes with the freedom of testamentary disposition; and courts have a duty to interfere with the Will if the provision made for an eligible applicant is less than adequate for his or her proper maintenance and advancement in life. The Court has to consider that the deceased was in a better position to determine what provision for a claimant's maintenance and advancement in life is proper than when it is called on to determine that question months or years after the death of the person best able to give evidence on that question.
Accordingly, if the deceased was capable of giving due consideration to that question and did so, considerable weight should be given to the testator's testamentary wishes in recognition of the better position in which the deceased was placed: subject to the qualification that the court's determination under the Act be made having regard to the circumstances at the time the court is considering the application, rather than at the time of the deceased's death or Will.
The Court believed that in the present case Hubert was faced with the moral obligation he owed to Jennifer to ensure she was secure in her retirement accommodation and protected against contingencies that might affect her in old age; balanced against the needs of his adult children. However, it cannot be seriously suggested that community expectation would be that Hubert should put Jennifer in a position where she is required to vacate her villa in the retirement village (in which she feels secure and which is her home); nor did Andrew seek this arguing that the nominal estate was sufficient to cover his claim.
The Court believed that Hubert had made adequate provision for the proper maintenance, education, and advancement in life of Andrew and did not grant a family provision order. Similarly, the requirements in the Act for making a notional estate order as to costs were not met. Therefore, each party was ordered to pay its own costs in the matter.
Recently the Court of Appeal rejected Andrew's challenge to the primary judge as being without substance. Agreeing that Jennifer's circumstances were not as comfortable as Andrew suggested and an order for $100,000 would significantly diminish her welfare.

Three new access lanes are going to be added to the Palma ring road, the via de cintura, they are going to be built in order to ease traffic congestion and reduce traffic jams at peak times.
The decision was approved yesterday by the Majorcan Mobility Commission and access to the ring road is going to improve for traffic coming from Inca on to the motorway, as a new access road will be introduced.
In future traffic from Inca will no longer have to change lanes and turn off in the direction of Andratx to join the ring road. This will involve the existing lanes being made slightly narrower and the speed limit being reduced from 120 kmph to 80. The second access improvement is going to be from the airport.
Currently there is only a single lane to join the via cintura or traffic has to use the Cal Blau roundabout in the direction of Manacor, in order to ease the situation a second access lane is going to be built.
Once these two access roads to the Ma-19 have been completed, a third lane from the start of the Ma-19 to the Estadio Balear will be introduced to ease congestion along the stretch of road and similar speed limit reductions will be introduced to improve road safety.
Work is due to start at the beginning of next year.

Will there be idle animations?
Will it's recharge time be changed, and will it recharge when another weapon is selected?
Will there be an equip animation (Like the Hornet Gun in Black Mesa)?
RE: About the Shock Roach.
- We have no idea, this will be based on the playtest sessions. It's fairly simple to adjust these things on the go.
- We have no plans for this, we are not entirely sure if similar animation would fit shockroach in particular. Do you have any ideas yourself?
Alright, thanks for the first two answers.
Let's take Black Mesa's Hornet Gun pick up animation. Gordon basically, uh, sticks his hand inside the thing.
Well, if you read the Half Life wiki, the Shock Roach attachs firmly to the user's hand. How about Shepard struggling to get it off, before he finds a way to get it off (so he can use other weapons), before putting it back on?
-Will some of the weapons have a pick up animation when you get them for the first time?
I must say I like the idea of the "struggle animation" for Shock roach :). I would say it would make sense for the animation when you get it for the first time, but I'm not sure if it would make sense to repeat this animation everytime player picks it up?
Only the first time there would be an animation.
Yup, something like that would work :). We will have a look at this.
Alright, thanks for the reply. I'll try to promote the modification.

Following a historic season in which the team made its first appearance in the California Community College Athletic Association's state tournament under its current format, the American River College women's volleyball team had four members named to the All-Big 8 Conference team.
The All-Conference roster is selected by the head coaches of the Big 8 Conference, who each submit a list of 12 players they believe should be included. For the second consecutive year, ARC had four members named to the roster. Libero Sophi Lozano, setter Jessica Condit, middle hitter Nicole Hareland and outside hitter Lauren Kirschke –all sophomores- were each selected.
Head coach Ashlie Frame was also honored with the conference's Coach of the Year award.
Hareland, who was named the conference's Most Valuable Player, received a full ride athletic scholarship to Humboldt State University and has begun her spring semester with the school's spring volleyball program.
Lozano, who will be looking into opportunities at the University of Tennessee and California State University, Sacramento, among other schools in the coming month, was ecstatic when she learned of her selection to the roster.
Frame is aspirant that her sophomores will be able to continue their playing careers, as well as use their experiences to peruse other endeavors.
With the awards being the final chapter of sorts to a season full of first-time milestones, Frame took time to reflect.
"Our last three years we've just had some great athletes, we have the respect of the other coaches in the conference, for them to agree that four of our players deserve all-conference is huge," Frame said.
2 Comments on "Five members of ARC volleyball receive All-Big 8 honors"
Pretty sure the volleyball coaches name is Ashlie Hain not Frame fact check your articles Current. Sloppy reporting.
The coach was married and has changed her name to Frame.


I stumbled across you today and I am reaching out to see if you can help me. I regret that I didn't get to see your work on Breast Cancer Survivors as I just heard about it today. You see, I was just diagnosed with breast cancer and will be having surgery this Thursday for a double mastectomy. I am really grieving this loss that I am about to experience. A thought came to me that I should have pictures of myself as I am now… as a reminder of these breasts that have been such a part of me for such a long time.

Coffee Market Report Week Ending 28th Aug 2015
COFFEE MARKET NEWS Week Ending: 28th Aug 2015
24thAug
25th Aug
LIFFE
Like a bear in a 'China' shop
The collapse in the Chinese stock market this week sent shockwaves around the world, affecting commodities, stocks and currencies. Although many recovered towards the end of the week, its impact may be longer lasting than we would like!
NYC:
The NYC explored negative prints and was looking very vulnerable before steady buying helped to defy sentiment and bid the market back into positive territory, where it remained for the closing bell at 124.05.
LIFFE:
London worked to a familiar pattern with the sorting of September dominating the flow as the discount operates to carry and origin address outstanding positions ahead of the delivery period starting today.
Working exposure in September is just 1,937 lots, much smaller than the market expected.
Solid growth figures on the US economy amid brief respite over concerns on the Chinese economy have helped support the dollar, growing stronger and stronger against GBP all week. Meanwhile, GBP/EUR traded in a tight range and was more stable.
Colombia: There are calls for Colombia to relax its export rules. These strict rules have been part of the reason that Colombia has garnered fame for its high quality washed Arabica. However, some producers are putting forward the proposition that these rules need to be relaxed in order to open up news markets. Carlos Ignacio Rojas, the head of the private coffee exporters association, thinks the lifting of the coffee export restrictions will allow producers to tap into more diverse markets and increase profits. Rojas asserts that this does not necessarily mean a deterioration in quality. In addition to the high quality washed Arabicas, natural coffees and premium Robustas can cater to a wider variety of tastes and increase exports.
Papua New Guinea (PNG): There are warnings that PNG could face its worst drought in 20 years 'This drought has the potential to be worse than 1997 and 1998' Prime Minister Peter O'Neill warned last week. An intensifying El Nino is raising fears that production of the country's critical agricultural commodities may suffer badly. A state of emergency has already been declared in Enga and Southern highlands provinces-the highland provinces are key coffee producing regions. Although PNG only accounts for 1% of global coffee supplies (World Bank Estimate), coffee is one of the few commodities that it exports and damage to its coffee industry could be very detrimental to its economy.
Timor-Leste: The New Zealand government is investing 14.5 million NZ dollars (9.43 million U.S. dollars) to help develop Timor-Leste's coffee and cocoa industry, Foreign Minister Murray McCully said on Wednesday. Coffee is Timor-Leste's largest export after oil and gas but its low productivity and lack of investment hampers its development. Almost 20% of Timorese households rely solely on coffee for their income, but tree productivity is less than 20% of the global average. New Zealand's investment is spread over 5 years and the project is expected to double the income of 19,000 participating farmers.
India: Total exports are up 1% year-on-year according the Coffee Board. India exports over 70% of its output and while Arabica exports slumped 33%, Robusta exports went up 22%. More investment is going into Robusta production and the improvements in its quality is increasing demand for it which is offsetting the slump in Arabica exports.


Jonothan (JJ) Didlick returns to Durban in April, (over the Easter weekend) to present his one-man tribute to the music of two different icons and legends of the entertainment industry. He is here for 3 shows only!!
Jonothan is a fan of both artists' music and passionate about these stars.
Vocally, they are very different singers and Jonothan enjoys the relaxed and casual manner in which Bublé performs his "big band" golden oldies, as well as his creative flair when performing his own compositions.
Freddie Mercury, on the other hand, is an entirely different kettle of fish, with his fantastic range and eccentric presentation style.
In this show, Jonothan hopes to capture the essence of both artists' talents, while at the same time, paying tribute to these two legends of modern music.
Expect to hear hits like: Mack the Knife, Heartache Tonight, It's a kinda magic, The Great Pretender, Sway, Tie your mother down, Everything, One Vision- he might even try Bohemian Rhapsody- with help from audience members as backing vocalists!!! The stadium classics will also feature: We are the Champions, We will rock you and Another one bites the dust. Of course there will be the common song performed by both artists: Crazy little thing called love.
So come along and enjoy the music of two diverse talents at The Rhumbelow Theatre Tina's on Friday 19 April, Saturday 20 April and Sunday 21 April.

Workers who won't sign Russian contracts banned from nuclear plant, according to Ukraine

The Ukrainian military claimed on Monday that Moscow had forbidden Ukrainian experts who had refused to sign contracts with Russia's nuclear energy company from entering the sizable Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station, which Russian forces had captured in March.
Even though it was under Russian authority, Ukrainian experts have continued running Zaporizhzhia, the largest nuclear power station in Europe, which is in the partially occupied southeast of Ukraine.
There was no immediate comment from Russia about the allegation. A spokesperson for Ukraine's Energoatom nuclear firm did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Sara Vizcarrondo - The Art of 'Killing': How Much Truth Comes from the Lie that Tells the Truth?; Errol Morris and Werner Herzog on The Act of Killing
The Art of 'Killing': How Much Truth Comes from the Lie that Tells the Truth?
By Sara Vizcarrondo
Before he made his film The Act of Killing, Joshua Oppenheimer interviewed survivors of Indonesia's bloody "Transition"—the failed military coup of 1965 and the brutal anti-Communist purges that followed—for an exposé on their culture of fear. Police shut down each meeting.
With fear of reprisals, Oppenheimer asked the survivors if they should stop filming. The survivors opposed unanimously, but volunteered a solution: Film the killers, and the police won't stop you. "Begin with my next-door neighbor, the man who killed my aunt," one survivor suggested. "He will appear to be proud. Film that and the audience will see why we are afraid."
After the failed coup, the Indonesian Army began a campaign of political apartheid. They paid street thugs and gangsters to rid the country of the National Communist Party (PKI), whom they blamed for the coup. There were no official trials to prove political affiliations, just semi-private assassinations.
The men who carried out the killings have been glorified in national media as heroes. Even today, they appear on talk shows, have political influence, and boast loudly about their murders to anyone who'll hear—including the families of the nameless victims they left on riverbanks and in ditches five decades ago. The most commonly cited death toll is 500,000, but accurate numbers are hard to tally. It's impossible to say the campaign has ended, since the political class that sanctioned it did so to gain power. And both power and its attainment are limitless things. Corruption persists in Indonesia.
In February 2004, Oppenheimer filmed two killers who took him to a river. During the Transition, these two men would drive a busload of internees from the military concentration camp to a riverbank every night, behead the passengers and throw the bodies in the water. "After they showed us how they'd done it, one of them took a small camera out of his pocket and asked my sound man, 'Would you mind taking a picture of us to remember this day?' and the two posed, giving the thumbs up and "V" for victory. I went home with that material thinking, I have to make a film that adequately attempts to understand this."
Errol Morris, an executive producer on The Act of Killing, made his 2008 documentary Standard Operating Procedure in response to the photos depicting the torture and humiliation of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison. He viewed those images with an exposé quality. "Standard Operating Procedure evidences a moment in which people want to remember themselves while torturing someone," says Oppenheimer. "Errol saw the pictures as confessions of a whistleblower. The Act of Killing is an attempt to understand an entire regime that did something similar; it wasn't just one person."
Oppenheimer spoke to 41 perpetrators and took each of them to the scene of their murders to act out what they'd done. With cameras rolling, they'd lament, "Oh, I should have brought a machete, and friends to play victims." But Anwar, one of the subjects in The Act of Killing, was the only man who returned to the roof where he'd killed hundreds, and neither lamented nor wished for co-conspirators. Instead, he danced. "Unlike the other 40 perpetrators, his pain was somehow close to the surface," Oppenheimer observes. "When he goes out on the roof, he sighs; it's like there's a stone in his shoe. He says, 'I dance to forget these horrors, and so I'm a good dancer.' And I'm wondering how this must look to him."
