Increasing numbers of consumers are finding the internet to be the most convenient method of shopping. In reaction to this increase, businesses must constantly review their delivery methodologies and ensure that they're providing convenient options for their customers.
eBay have recently announced that shoppers will be able to collect their goods from Argos stores, initially it will be eBay's top 50 sellers that can use this click and collect service in a 6 month trial before a roll out to all 735 Argos stores. It was back in 2000 that Argos coined the phrase "click and collect" which is now Britain's favourite way to shop.
With recent safety fears and terrorist threat attacks on shopping centres, there will inevitably be even greater levels of internet shopping in the Christmas period, putting further strains on the delivery logistics. Companies need to ensure that they have plans in place for coping with the increased customer demand during this busy period. Amazon, for instance, has just announced that they will taking on an extra 15,000 workers to ensure that customer orders are still fulfilled in a timely and efficient manner.
Amazon has just been voted the UK's favourite retailer, beating John Lewis and Marks & Spencer's for choice, value for money and convenience.

Today (Friday 11 October) sees the controversial flotation of the Royal Mail plc, valuing the business at £3.3 billion. Only time will tell whether this has been a success for the government and tax payers, not to mention the trade unions and of course the consumer.
The way that we consume information is constantly changing with the increasing introduction, progression and adoption of digital versions of traditional media.
For instance Lloyd's List, the world's longest running business newspaper, has been in print since 1734. The title has now announced, however, that they will be abandoning their print edition and becoming fully digital after recent statistics have shown that only 2% of readers now use the print edition. This follows on from other popular print titles such as Auto Trader magazine, once the bible for anyone looking for a second-hand car, which ended its print edition in March of this year.
In contrast, the national newspapers are struggling to make the shift to online, with intense competition including a vast range of content that is available for free.
The way that we choose to consume media and information will continue to change, but in a business market the most important aspect is to react to demands of consumers, providing information in the way that suits them. And in customer communications, Yes Response find that it is important to provide the customer with a choice, allowing them to indicate their preferred method of communication, whether that be posted printed material, email or telephone.

Upon separation or divorce, in some cases a judge may order one party to pay spousal support (alimony or separate maintenance) to his or her spouse. If awarded, the type, the duration and amount of alimony will be determined primarily by the length of the marriage, the need of one party for support, the ability of the other party to pay the support and the standard of living the parties have enjoyed together.
A Trial Judge may order temporary support from the time of the filing of a Dissolution of Marriage action (divorce case) or the time of filing of a Petition for Support Unconnected with Dissolution of Marriage. At the time of the Final Judgment, the Trial Judge may order permanent alimony (to continue until the death of either spouse or the remarriage of the receiving spouse), durational alimony (support paid for a set period of time, not to exceed the length of the marriage), bridge-the-gap alimony (meant to bridge the gap between living as a married couple and supporting yourself), rehabilitative alimony (support for a specific purpose that is meant to fund a plan to allow the receiving spouse to become educated or otherwise qualified to work at a particular job), (and/or lump sum alimony (a specific sum designated for support purposes). Typically, permanent alimony, durational, bridge-the-gap and rehabilitative alimony are paid on a monthly basis and may have substantial tax consequences.
The factors considered by a court when determining issues of alimony include: the age of the parties, the duration of the marriage, the health, education and skills of each party and other factors. Generally, marital misconduct, such as adultery is only considered when it has an economic consequence.
An Income Deduction Order may be entered that will require the employer of the person paying alimony to deduct the support from the paying spouse's paycheck and send it directly to the other spouse or to a central depository, which will keep track of the payments and forward the funds to the receiving spouse. Failure to pay spousal support when it has been ordered is enforceable by contempt and willful failure to pay may result in a person being jailed. A party may be ordered to maintain life insurance or provide other security to ensure the continued payment of alimony.
As an additional component of support, a Judge may order one party to pay the attorney's fees and costs incurred by his or her spouse. The primary factor to be considered in an award of fees is the need of one spouse and the ability of the other spouse to pay. More and more, however, the courts are considering the reasonableness of the positions of each party in determining the amount of fees and costs awarded.

Max Waibel (2 May 1901 – 20 January 1971) was a Swiss army officer who played an important part in arranging the end of World War II in Italy.

Life

Waibel was born in Basel in 1901, the son of Heinrich Adolf Waibel and Anna Sutter. He studied in Basel, Frankfurt and Giessen, receiving a doctorate in Political Sciences in 1923. From 1927 he took over the function of commanding officer of the Waffenplatz in Lucerne. In 1935 he was transferred to the General Staff and sent to the War Academy in Berlin in 1938. When war broke out in 1939, he returned to Switzerland and took over the management of the Rigi/Lucerne signal intelligence centre.

In 1940, Waibel was one of the founders of the Officers' League, which wanted to take on the fight against any invading German troops on their own should the Federal Council decide to surrender. Together with his deputy Bernhard Mayr von Baldegg, Waibel was arrested, but soon released and promoted to Major at the end of 1940. He participated in Swiss resistance organisation the Aktion Nationaler Widerstand, and was also associated with the Red Orchestra. He then headed the Intelligence Section 1 (NS-1, Rigi) of the Swiss Armed Forces and assigned Christian Schneider to forward militarily relevant information to the Soviet Union.

He was the authoritative mediator for SS General Karl Wolff arranging German capitulation in northern Italy. Secret meetings took place with him in Lucerne, in which the American CIA secret service chief Allen Dulles also took part. At the same time he was in contact with the Italian partisans. After the war, Waibel met with Allied generals who thanked him for his peace mediation. According to historian Edgar Bonjour, Operation Sunrise ended the war six to eight weeks earlier and preserved the rich cultural heritage of northern Italy from German destruction in the event of a forced retreat. In 1953 Max Waibel was promoted to Division Colonel.

Max Waibel was married to Margrit Schwytzer von Buonas from the Lucerne patrician family of the same name, and lived with his family in the prestigious Dorenbach mansion, in whose stately salons the mentioned negotiations took place. The meetings were held under great secrecy and threatened several times to fail, presenting every time a logistical masterpiece. Meetings were also held in the Hotel Schweizerhof in Lucerne and in Ascona and Lugano etc., with Generals Lemnitzer and Airey.

After retiring, Waibel became chairman of the bank of Ernst Brunner, a businessman who had become rich in penicillin trading. In 1970, the bank collapsed. Waibel gave a farewell Christmas party and then shot himself.

Memorial

60 years after the end of the war, a memorial plaque was inaugurated in the presence of his family at the Army Training Center in Lucerne. Present was the Swiss Federal President Samuel Schmid and the ambassadors of the US, Russia, France and Italy. In his speech, former Secretary of State Franz Blankart said that Waibel would have been stopped by the Federal Council, had they known about his activities.

The inscription on the plaque reads:

As mediator between the German and the Allied warring parties he reached, in Lucerne on 2 May 1945, a truce in northern Italy. Courageous and opinionated, obeying not commands but his own conscience, he lit the beacon of peace which brought the war in Europe to an early close. Innumerable human lives and noble cultural assets were spared, Northern Italy escaped the barbaric war atrocities of the scorched earth.

ABOUT THIS INTERVIEW: This brief interview with the Beatles was recorded on July 30th 1963 by the BBC, and was later aired during the month of August on the program 'Non Stop Pop' as a program segment called, 'Pop Chat.' The Beatles were interviewed by BBC announcer and bandleader Phil Tate. The Fabs were in London during a two-day break in their busy performing schedule. It is interesting to notice in this interview, at this transitional stage in their growing fame, John Lennon still refers to songwriting as a hobby.
August 3rd would mark the Beatles last-ever performance at the famed Cavern Club in their hometown. While the Beatles as a group would perform again in Liverpool at both the Odeon and Empire Theatres, future return shows at the Cavern seemed impossible due to it's very small seating capacity and the size of the crowds that they were now responsible for drawing.
Q: "Our guests this week on 'Pop Chat' are The Beatles -- John, Paul, George and Ringo. Let's start off with you, Ringo. Everybody knows that the Beatles are a Liverpool group, but were you all actually born in Liverpool?"
JOHN: "Well, mainly. All the better songs that we have written -- the ones that anybody wants to hear -- those were co-written."
GEORGE: "Well, umm... I don't think any of us had been bothered with having haircuts, and it was always long. Paul and John went to Paris and came back with it -- something like this. And I went to the baths and came out with it like this."
Q: "Another fan was anxious to know how you manage to get any private life. I mean -- If you take a girl out, how do you avoid being recognized, Paul?"
Q: "Now, John, I know you have very little time for anything but music at the moment. But if you had spare time -- What sort of hobbies and sports do you enjoy?"


Tuesday night we used coupons the boys earned through a summer reading program to attend an Isotopes game, minor-league baseball. The game was fun. As you can tell from these pictures, we had the time wrong in mind and arrived 45-minutes early. While hot, it was actually a super low-key, nice time for our family to wonder around and play a little without a crowd. Student Center people arrived for the game on time and we spent an hour over there with them and Scott's co-worker's family. Our neighbors, who the boys adore, were also there so all the kids could play a while. What a nice summer night!
Why their interest in this display or their desire to take this photo, I do not know. The amazement never ends.
You can tell we're early. The stands are empty. They nearly were anyway, but not too this extent.
On the park's playground. HOT days.
Take Me Out fits our week to a T.
Ranne's first week of school, Tuesday through Friday, went fine. He had some obvious, quiet trepidation about going in each time but took a deep breath and marched through the door.
This week has been different. We get there a few minutes early and play on the equipment outside, but as soon as that bell rings he's full of tears and fears. On Monday night, he had nightmares all night and every morning he tries to sleep in. AAHHHRRRRG. I had hoped this transition would be easier on us both.
Today I tried to treat the boys, especially my bummed-out Ranne, to happy hour slushies from Sonic. Toby, trying to put Trey's straw back in his cup for me, gouged it through the bottom of the full drink. In my round state I couldn't get to it very fast so the new vehicle has nice sticky red drink spillage front to back. Sheesh. Take me out! I managed to clean it but am just now remembering a spot on the carpet I will have wished to have remembered sooner. Yet, on the bright side, I now have very clean car seats as I had to wash Trey's and so did the others as well.
Despite that mess, I'm actually pretty proud of today: picked up soil for Ranne's class' planting project (and the little costs begin); dropped him off; stopped at the post office; vaccuumed out the car; fed family lunch; napped the boys and caught up on reciepts and bills before baby comes (last baby, I forgot to pay the bills); cleaned, folding and put away all laundry; stopped at Sonic; picked up Ranne; cleaned car seats and Trey (who the drink spilt on; R finished his homework; fed all a strange dinner; we had a movie night and they're now in bed. I'm going to address some thank you cards and tuck myself in.
Goodnight all as well as a congratulations to both my dad and brother on their new jobs! I feel oddly relieved for them to have a change or just...work. God is very good. Dad said on the phone tonight that he's not sure he's been so happy with a previous employment situation. That is very exciting.
Ranne is growing up too fast, faster than I can blink. Lately when looking at him, I have a strange overwhelming urge to just sit on him to make him stop.
Here the boys are on Ranne's first day of school. Yes, his pants are rolled up. Being the mother I am, I was not going to buy him new pants for school and have him grow out of them in the first week. I tried getting a serious picture as well, without his brothers, but the sprinkler soaked my backhalf as I tried to edge further from the house into the yard, all as the neighbor came up to talk. We were late.
And then, what does he go and do but loose his first tooth, on his first day of school! The nerve. Scott took him to the dentist the day before so he could have that experience. The hygentist discovered his tooth was loose. Why did he never mention it? Perhaps it's similar to when I was his age and discovered my hair fell out; I thought I had cancer and was dying. I saw it happen in a movie and assumed I was a gonner but didn't tell Mom for months, sure it would crush her. Ranne was pretty giggly over his tooth discovery, though.
To add to the tooth story, he submitted to the 'Tooth Fairy" game, knowing it's a game and who the fairy is. He and I put the tooth under the pillow and had a big conversation about it to be playful. Well, the fairy is new to this business in the Free House, having just graduated (or been forced into the job). She FORGOT to put the prize under the pillow and woke to find a teary son staring at her as she slept. He tossed the tooth on the bedside table and said, "THIS is what she left me." AHHHHHHH. The pain. The sadness and disappointment. Why did I have to forget the first time! I made up for it the next night with the quarter and a note written in tiny fairy print.
Lastly, here are the new wheels--and gas tank. It, as the man who sold it told us, is not a sipper. But, it will get our people around, as well as a couple extras. It also keeps us, me, sober when deciding whether a trip across town really has to happen. Most often it's "no", though cabin fever has set in. We do have the Fiat for commuting around town when it's just Scott or myself. We hope to get that going fairly soon. Yet the Suburban is a 99 so has some work to be done first, like getting the doors to open from the INSIDE. We are blessed to have it. So blessed!
Otherwise, baby is active and progressing. We expect her arrival any day, hoping is sooner rather than later. Due date is, again, September 7th but she's already big and healthy.
I am humbled by this. On a day that it couldn't be less deserved, Scott and the boys show up with these after a late night at the ball fields. Scott often shows his pursuit, I think, of being Christ-like in that he will show so much kindness and love even when it's been undeserved and memorably one of my worst days. So, thank you, Love. Humbled, thankful and loved.
He looks a bit like a vampire here, we think. For some strange reason, he's been putting soap in his hair while doing the hand-washing routine. I commented on it to Scott earlier that day so Toby decided to impress us with a full hair-load.
We have gratefully been borrowing some friends' Suburban until we can find a vehicle. It's strange to be a family without any wheels at all, to say the least. A friend and I talked in Chick-Fil-A today about working toward an attitude of gratitude while purposefully living with less. It's hard to train a child's heart toward contentment we ourselves struggle while making sacrifices and trying to shuffle important things like modes of transportation. The urgency combined with desire to be wise with God's provisions can be a difficult mixture. I'm glad the search is over.
Since we've been driving our friends' vehicle, our two-year-old talks about going to get in the Bourbon. We've been a little amused by this. Well today we bought Bourbon, a 99 Suburban with 140,... miles on it. We've been praying that God help us find a dependable way to move our four little people around. Today we found the first reasonable option and our offer was accepted. We were able to purchase it and purchase a couple things like tires and brake pads for what we sold our two cars for minus what we've spent on vin number checking and mechanic checks on a couple other cars. This one has some work needed, but nothing we're intimidated by or can't do personally. We're thanking God and will continue to even when things break. At least we have a way to get to the doctor to have a baby!
Which reminds me, the church threw a beautiful duel shower for the babies coming. My cousin did the decorating for it and it was so pretty! Yellow, white, black and gray colors with a tea-like theme. The ladies made wonderful treats and the church was beyond generous. We're going through all the clothes and blankets with much anticipation ('I' would be more appropriate; Scott's tolerating the mess as I try to organize). The other woman is Marin. She's due about a week-and-a-half before ours.
Otherwise, Ranne begins first grade on the 16th. We take him in for registration on the 11th. I am very jittery about this and worry about whether or not he's ready. They've said NOTHING about our home schooling him or asked to check and see where he's at academically. I worry a bit with his dyslexia as well as wonder whether the fact that some letters he hasn't figured out how to write properly will be a problem. But I'm sure he'll catch up fine. He reads well. I know he'll be a precious boy in class. It will be good for this silly mom to see the school and meet some people. Sigh. I feel like such a nerd.


i have just started with l'le bit of panel programming.
my panel is as follows.
My rexx to display panel is as follows.
"ispexec libdef ispplib library id(VENJ91.IPVENJ91.PANELS)"
Posted: Wed Jun 08, 2005 4:38 am Post subject: Re: how to display a panel??
Did the panel display OK in an ISPF Dialog Test (option 7)? I'd validate that the panel syntax is OK before going much further. Off-hand, your REXX code looks OK.
Posted: Wed Jun 08, 2005 1:01 pm Post subject: Re: how to display a panel??
i tried using option 7. But i am not able to use it properly i guess.
in option 7 i selected 'display panel' (option2).. but i am not able to give my PDS name where my panel is coded.
can you let me know steps to display panel using option 7 in ISPF.
Posted: Wed Jun 08, 2005 3:40 pm Post subject: Re: how to display a panel??
I am away from the office this week, but there should also be an option to execute a command. Here you should execute the LIBDEF command for your ISPPLIB library allocation.
"ispexec libdef ispplib dataset id('VENJ91.IPVENJ91.PANELS')"
Posted: Wed Jun 08, 2005 9:07 pm Post subject: Re: how to display a panel??
I think i am getting the popup window, but rather than showing me the panel its showing me the panel code. I guess i am close but not getting the exact output.
"ISPEXEC LIBDEF ISPPLIB DATASET ID('"mylib"')"
I tried and it function well, now I wait your doubt..
Ops... Panel(INTRO) in your case is the name of the panel where you have stored de source of your panel.
To be sure of the panel that you are calling, use PANELID to have at the left top the name of the current panel. To exit digit PANELID again.
Posted: Mon Jun 13, 2005 7:59 pm Post subject: Re: how to display a panel??
"ISPEXEC LIBDEF ISPPLIB DATASET ID(ISPPLIB)"
A panel section is out of order or has already been defined.
Can you please solve my problem, so that I can go ahead?
Probably you have copy past the panel from this forum and at the end of each row you have numeration. You must Renum and Unnum from command line your member before retry.
I hope in this help.
It worked. Actually I am a bit new to mainframes, thats why I did not notice that.
I read the tutorial and I make some test and after so, I can assure you that to execute in Dialog Test a panel or a table you must put your panel or table in the correct library that is one of those that are specified in ISPPLIB that you can see using TSO ISRDDN.
Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2005 5:23 pm Post subject: Re: how to display a panel??
* Field or area name missing following identifying attribute character * .
* Panel line where error was detected: * .

This was the error message i got while executing.
I tried unnum ooption as well.

Steve Feeney has been appointed as the first ever manager of the Sligo Rovers women's team ahead of their debut season in the Women's National League in 2022.
A former Sligo Rovers player, Feeney has spent the last decade with Ballinamallard as a player and coach.
Whilst playing under Paul Cook in the Showgrounds, he was part of the underage and A team coaching staff as well as taking some senior sessions.
Feeney has coached with Summerhill College and local teams intermittently but following his retirement he became a coach at the Northern Irish side.
Today he has returned to Sligo Rovers as he takes on the task on managing the new Rovers side.
The UEFA 'A' licence holder said: "It's very exciting. It's my first senior job as a manager so that alone is exciting, but the fact it is Sligo Rovers and the first ever WNL team is something else really.
"It was a privilege to be offered this position. Leaving Ballinamallard was a very tough decision, working under a brilliant manager like Harry McConkey. It was a little bit sad to leave it behind but the opportunity and the challenge here was too appealing to turn down."
Feeney's immediate task will be to assemble a Rovers team. Plans have already been made ahead of a series of meetings this week with club staff and officials.
Part of the appeal of the job was the credibility the club had built up in supporting its academy teams and Feeney sees that as a model to build his side.
In recruiting players, he wants ambition to be just as important as talent.
"We need to get a team in place, players signed, before we then move on to pre-season plans. We have a list of players we are going to make contact with imminently.
"We also have the academy players so we'll be talking to the coaches about who are ready to step up.
"We have our link-up with IT Sligo and I'll be building relationships there as soon as possible. The scholarship system is brilliant and offering education on top of playing at this level is a massive bonus. It's a great link-up and I think it could get stronger and stronger if we all work together.
"I think it's important that it is not just a gesture that Sligo Rovers are going to put a women's team in the league for the sake of it.
"If you look at the underage system here, it's a good example of how the club has approached things. At the time it could have just been a licencing necessity and over the years it has been shown that the club has really backed it.
"The girls at the Under-17 and Under-19 are heading in the same way so it's great now that we have a senior team.
"The league table in the WNL shows a gap between the top three, then a few more, and then the last three. It was a three tier league so we'll see how we go.
"The big thing for us is to get players on board and find a way of playing that works for us. We have to focus on us and make sure we are competitive in every game. Where we can pick points up, we'll need to do it. I have no doubt it will be a tough league. But at the same time, it's a great opportunity and challenge for our players. The top teams will have two or three Irish internationals playing for them.
"Any player who signs for us, they will be facing international players and if that doesn't excite them, then it probably isn't for them. We will look at ourselves and push to win points when we can."
Rovers will play matches in the Showgrounds and Feeney hopes to see supporters get behind the team.
"It would be brilliant to get big crowds and the fact the games are on the main pitch. As well as supporting our own players, we'll have these big name players in opposition that you would normally only see in Dublin or on TV.
"We hope the Sligo Rovers fans get behind this team from the off and our plan is to make them all proud and the women's side of the club gets stronger and stronger."

Task Force To Examine Support Needs For Hoosiers With Disabilities
By Jill Sheridan • Nov 27, 2017
A state plan for the support needs of Hoosiers with intellectual and developmental disabilities will get an update soon for the first time in 20 years. A new state task force aimed at helping the estimated 100,000 Indiana residents with such disabilities met in Indianapolis Monday.
Rep. Ed Clere (R-New Albany) authored a bill last session to update the state's plan to provide community-based services.
"Unfortunately, some people are not being served well or as well as they could be served," Clere says.

In the corner of a basement office in Purdue's Mann Hall, there's a desk up on cinder blocks, sitting higher than all the rest. A few feet away there's a workspace consisting of tables whose height can be raised or lowered. Researcher Brad Duerstock designed his own office – to accommodate his wheelchair.
"I've used mounting systems where I was so kind of physically away from the table, I was more close to the table behind me than the table I was really involved with," he says. "So it is excluding."
App Will Soon Let People Rate A Location's Accessibility

Missouri is home to two of the nation's least accessible cities - St. Louis and Springfield. A group named WalletHub gathered information to compile this list of accessible cities. And one criteria it used was how easily people with disabilities can move around. Or, in the case of these cities, can't.


Ajay always had a way with words and he coined this way back in the day. This song is really special to me because his nephew who was maybe a year old at the time we recorded this, sang the bridge back to me one day when I was holding him. It really changed me. It's one thing for someone in the crowd to sing your song drunk out of their minds, but a little child? I remember writing that bridge line: "bah bah bad-da, bah bah bah da da da da" and thinking it was catchy… from my brain to this kid's memory. If a child sings back something – it's catchy. To this day, I still think about it every time I hear the song.
Speaking of which, some wacked out cat on YouTube named "Fortey" put this wicked video together about the song. Hope you dig it – I did! Thanks Mista Fortey!

Old-world dilapidation meets ripe bananas. Need we explain?
New York artist Tony Matelli's world is a balancing act of the banal and the sublime. Case in point: his most recent series, "Garden," which features seemingly unearthed ancient statuary with errant avocados, crab claws, and salamis perched on their heads and shoulders.
Matelli's concrete "antiquities"—sandblasted to near obliteration and then adorned with cast bronze fruits and meats— may read like a tongue-in-cheek commentary on classical art. But, as with most of the artist's work, they draw off much more.
When passing by a burnt-out taxicab back in 2014, Matelli was inspired to add a strawberry that he was snacking on to the dented and rusted metal.
Matelli has trafficked in hyperrealism throughout his successful 20-year career, with his sculptures of hapless humans garnering him a solo show at ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum in Denmark in 2012 and a spot in the 2011 Venice Biennale.
Perhaps most famous for works like Sleepwalker (2014)—his life-size sculpture of a zoned-out somnambulist trotting along in his tighty whities on New York's High Line—Matelli has sometimes sparked controversy with his representational sculptures on display.
The Details: Catch select works from "Garden" on loan from Marlborough Gallery in The Joule lobby through the month of April.

Report : Beats Audio To Buy Out Remaining HTC Stake For $265 Million
by Shivaank RanaSeptember 28, 2013
Reports are coming in that HTC is indeed about to sell its stake back to Beats. In 2010, HTC owned 50 percent of Beats, before selling half last year for $150 million. The remaining 25 percent has increased in price considerably since then, as the new deal will close at $265 million.
It seems that Beats has already taken on a new partner in the form of Carlyle Group, which is said to be investing $500 million into Beat's expansion efforts.
"We are confident that Beats will continue to drive innovation and growth in the premium audio accessory market, particularly as the proliferation of smart phones and tablets stimulate increased consumption of digital media," Sandra Horbach, a managing director at Carlyle, said in a statement.
Now that the partnership is ending, Beats is free to continue down the path of pushing its Beats audio technology into other products including in-car dashes, HP computers and – of course- its premium headphone line. For HTC, it means a pretty hefty cash infusion that can help the company can (hopefully) use to further facilitate growth and recovery after years of struggle.
Founded in 2006 by rapper Dr. Dre and Iovine, chairman of music label Interscope, Beats has come to dominate the market for pricey headphones. According to the NPD Group, Beats has grabbed more than 60 percent of the U.S. market for headphones costing more than $100. Its signature headsets retail for between $200 and $400.

Shrine of Baba Garib Nath, Paonta Sahib
The zig –zag roads and high –altitude hiking trails of Himachal Pradesh lead to a fantastic pilgrimage site where stories from the Sikhs epics are set: Paonta Sahib. It is the holiest Sikh shrine in Himachal Pradesh; pilgrims arrive here to pay reverence to the tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh and the Sikh leader Banda Bahadur. The holy town is located on the boulevards of the river Yamuna in Sirmour district of Himachal Pradesh. On a religious trip to Paonta Sahib, tourist can explore the Paonta Sahib Gurudwara, Gurudwara Shergarh Sahib, Assan Lake and many ancient temples.
The main attraction of the religious town is the Paonta Sahib Gurudwara. It is the place where Guru Gobind Singh wrote the pious Dasam Granth. The Gurudwara got its name either from the facts that Guru Gobind Singh ji set his foot here or just because he lost his ornament in the River Yamuna which he used to wear on his feet. A Gurudwara was later constructed, and one can see some of the belongings of Guru ji here even today. Within the walls of the Gurudwara, there is a famous museum, which exhibits various priced possessions of Sikh Guru's like antiques and weapons.
Located at a distance of about 12 km from starlit Gurudwara Paonta Sahib is the Gurudwara Shergarh Sahib. The Gurudwara is a symbol of courage as this was the place where Guru Gobind Singh ji beheaded a man-eater with a single stroke of his sword. Nearby the Gurudwara Paonta Sahib is the Khodri Dak Patthar, a beautiful park with a swimming pool and a mansion. Patanjali Jyotirlinga Temple and Patanjali Jyotirlinga temple are some of the distinguished shrines which are worth a visit on a trip to Paonta Sahib. This tiny hamlet has become the talk of the town for the fact that major companies of India have established their industrial unit here, ranging from manufacturers of pharmaceuticals.
Multiple stories and fables are associated with the fabulous town of Paonta Sahib. One of the most revered religious destinations in India, the tranquil aroma prevailed here can soothe the mind and soul of the every traveller.
Adventure activities at Paonta Sahib Assan lake is a 4 km long man-made reservoir which hosts multiple recreational activities like paddling, rowing, water skiing and hovercraft rides. The lake is maintained by the Himachal Pradesh Tourism Department (HPTD) to promote tourism.

The glitz, the glam, the glorious design elements that make your website look like a million bucks … When contemplating a website redesign, it's easy to focus only on those features that are appealing to the eye. But to ensure your new site will truly resonate with your target audience (and to save yourself from some major headaches down the road) you need SEO to be ingrained in your redesign strategy from the very beginning. Trends adjusts search data to make comparisons between terms easier. Each data point is divided by the total searches of the geography and time range it represents, to compare relative popularity. Customized information will make sure your brand is memorable and distinct from all your ho-hum competitors. Google likes to pretend that great content, and great websites, will naturally acquire links. But for 99.999% of businesses, that's terrible advice.
Fundamental search engine optimization never changes. You only have three things to work with: content, links, and measurement. In order for backlink checkers to exist, the entire web (i.e. billions of pages) has to be crawled, regularly re-crawled and stored in a monstrous database. The costs and challenges associated with doing this are HUGE. The rise of social media on the Web has created a host of new signals that search engines can consider. The bottom line is that if you're focusing on a small group of generic keywords, you're probably not being found by most of the people who are searching for you.
Google has several bots: Googlebot (desktop), Googlebot (mobile), Googlebot Video, Googlebot Images, Googlebot News. For most websites, the Googlebots for desktop and mobile are the most important bots. The methods vary from technical practices you can achieve behind the scenes on your website (we tend to refer to this as 'on-page SEO') to all the promotional 'off-page' approaches you can use to raise your site's visibility (link-building, social media marketing). Updating content across a site should be a priority as Google rewards fresher content for certain searches. When building backlinks to your website, you have to make everything look as natural as possible. It's normal that a website has most of its links to the homepage.
One of the basic tools of the trade for an SEO practitioner is the search engines themselves. They provide a rich array of commands that can be used to perform advanced research, diagnosis, and competitive analysis. The digital environment is rapidly shifting. There are over a billion websites online, and customers have countless brands to choose from when seeking solutions to their needs. Evergreen topics have long lasting value, so when looking at the trend, it should be pretty consistent throughout the year. Traditionally, these tend to be slightly more competitive, but have a much longer lifespan for being relevant. According to SEO Consultant, Gaz Hall: "Google is getting better and better at recognizing content that truly is useful to people."
Long-format articles in excess of 1000 words are the prescription for getting the search engines to see your content as something trustworthy. A sitemap is a file that tells exactly how crawlers should crawl your website. For example, if there is a page that does not get linked to your website but you still want the crawler to crawl it then you would simply include it in your sitemap file to tell the crawlers that there is something important there. Even with more and more consumers using their mobile devices to search and browse the web, there are some companies that still focus all their marketing and SEO efforts to desktops and choose to ignore their mobile customers (or just don't realize how mobile their customers really are). To be a part of the party, make sure your business website uses structured data markup.


When God calls you to do something, He generally doesn't descend in a cloud of smoke and fire and hand you a map etched in stone. Sometimes it would be nice though.
That would be nice. However, if God provided constant GPS directions to our life, we'd never learn to have a relationship with him. We'd be mind numbed robots; kind of like me driving around Indiana. I lived in Indiana for almost four years and I never really learned my way around because I always used a GPS.
God doesn't let us hobble around on that crutch. He respects us enough to take the time and teach us how to be better people. We have to learn our left from our right, learn which way north is, and then listen to His still small voice at the intersections. Sometimes we have to turn around in strangers' driveways or stop and ask where in the blue blazes we're at. That's part of the process.
I was all ears! I loved airplanes but I never had the chance to buy one and put it in my backyard so I could just fiddle around with it on weekends. Working for minimum wage at a local department store has that effect on you. I couldn't even get my dad to buy a go-cart! Plus, I loved reading stories about missionaries and all the adventure and danger they found themselves in. I had always wanted to be in the thick of the action and the idea that I could be both a missionary and a pilot really lit a fire in my soul!
I lost no time emailing MMS Aviation. With any luck, they'd accept me that weekend and I'd be rebuilding a Cessna within a month. I still have the original email I sent MMS about twelve years ago. Dan Pottner, the Human Resources director at the time, emailed me back the next day and gave me the steps involved in becoming an apprentice. One step included raising thousands of dollars in support. I was dismayed and completely dejected. Raising that much support is completely impossible, I thought. With a sigh I took the idea of going to MMS Aviation and pushed it off my mental desk and into the waste can. No use dreaming about something that's never going to happen.
I moved on with my life and tried to find my calling elsewhere. I helped with various kid's clubs in various cities, I went on short term trips to Hong Kong, Thailand, Grenada, China, Laos, Mexico, and even Lock Haven, Pennsylvania. Maybe God will present an opportunity for me this time, I thought as I departed for each trip. I was hoping God would take the baseball bat of revelation and hit me across the forehead with it. I didn't want anything mysterious and wishy-washy, just a good old whack of no-nonsense, direct, and undeniable calling. I was serious about this. I even told God I'd be single the rest of my life if He needed me to be. In fact, I was assuming that my most useful state of being was single and unattached. Turns out, nothing improves you like the love of a good woman and boy, did I need some improving.
I remember when my thinking switched from "single and satisfied" to "in the market." I was at a wedding, fidgeting somewhere in the audience and wishing the preacher would get on with it so we could get to the reception. Suddenly something the preacher said resonated within me, kind of like when you whack a 55 gallon drum with a hammer. BONG! "Sometimes God calls us to something that is too big to accomplish ourselves so he gives us a partner." he said. I sat up straight. What? You mean that maybe God has been waiting on me to get hitched this whole time? Now, in case this leads you to believe that getting married suddenly fixes your issues, please stop being stupid. It actually amplifies your flaws. But I do believe the preacher was right in my case. I get more convinced of that with each wedding anniversary Janice and I have.
Through a strange set of coincidences (is there such a thing as a coincidence) I found myself asking Janice to on a date and Janice found herself saying yes.
I drove 566 miles for our first date which gave me plenty of time to question my sanity. Why would she go on a date with me? Can't she find anyone in Michigan to date? Why would she say yes to a date with a guy she barely knows? I shouldn't even be dating. I'm not even marriage material. I can barely afford the gas to drive to Michigan. What am I thinking?!
One of the first things I remember asking Janice is if she's OK with living in a mud hut in the middle of nowhere. "Um… Yea, I guess," she said.
Turns out the main thing Janice was looking for in a relationship was honesty. The very thing I thought would chase her away was actually impressing her. That, and I fixed a flat tire for her although later she drove that car through a barbed wire fence on the way to work so my handiwork was wasted. In fact, maybe she would've been driving slower if I had left the tire flat.
When you find a nice girl like Janice, you marry her ASAP. A few weeks into our dating relationship, Janice casually mentioned that she thought a decent person should date for at least six months before they get engaged. I did the math in my head and figured out that she was telling me to not try anything funny for at least five more months. Got it. Four months later we were watching a movie in my brother-in-law's basement and Janice casually mentioned that she had changed her mind. "I think maybe five months is long enough to wait," she said. Bingo! I had the green light. A few months later I popped the question while kayaking in Pennsylvania. Stunningly she said yes! A couple months after that I packed everything I owned into my 1989 Chevy G20 cargo van and drove out to Michigan, leaving behind almost everything and everyone I knew for 25 years. This included the van's exhaust which fell off in Ohio. The back tires ran over the exhaust and it clattered so violently I almost involuntarily jumped through the windshield.
Although I was saying no to MMS Aviation, I still felt the call to missions. I tried all sorts of businesses and stupid ideas. If I couldn't be a missionary then I was going to be a successful businessman and support other missionaries, I thought. How that involvement would take place was the question. Except the thing was that I just couldn't forget about MMS Aviation. In the back of my head, it kept popping up but I kept whacking it down. It's impossible. Let it go, man.
For one thing, I thought it was impossible to raise that much money. But the biggest thing was that I didn't want to ask anyone for money. I was raised better than that. There's no way in the world I'm going around begging for money. I'll find a way to fund myself. And so began an unsuccessful attempt to find my own way to accomplish what God wanted me to do.
It didn't work very well. The mud hut began to look more like a reality – except it would be under a bridge in America, not in an African jungle. I began to despair. Despair, I believe, is God's excavating company. He allows us to dig a hole we can't get out of then, once we give up, he uses that hole to build the foundation of our calling.
I felt like Moses in front of the burning bush. Surely there are thousands of people more qualified than me! I'm not a brilliant person, I'm not a super Christian, I'm not good at following through, I'm not disciplined, I'm not good at fundraising, and all my mechanical experience has been with motorcycles and cars that haven't cost more than $2,000. And here I was, claiming God was calling me to work on airplanes that could cost more than a million dollars (a new Kodiak is $1.5 million). Why me, God? Am I crazy?
Do I believe anything is possible with God? Yes. Do I believe God has called our family to MMS Aviation? Without a doubt. The only choice left is to take those steps towards our calling even though it all seems impossible. But what should be the first step?
"Well it's about time!" She said.
"It's a date," I emailed back. Then I realized that it's a four and a half hour drive to MMS Aviation from where we lived. We'd have to leave at 4 AM on Saturday! I moaned and belly ached to Janice. When we first got married, she would listen to my moaning with rapt attention. Now she just karate chops my complaining in the face and then puts it in a headlock until it passes out.
"Put your big boy pants on," she said, "If we don't do it now, we never will." Janice was two weeks away from her due date and if we waited until the baby came, it would make things more complicated (and sleep deprived).
That Saturday we headed to Ohio. We got there right on time and I wondered into the office. The first thing I noticed was that the hangar smelled nicely of avgas and exhaust. I'm serious, nothing smells as good as the main hangar at MMS Aviation. I wish I could buy cologne that smelled just like it.

We met Dan and instantly I liked him. He had a beard after all, and liked airplanes. That's a good start to any relationship. We began walking around the building. "That's the parts room. This is the lunchroom. Do you want any coffee? Oh, there's the bathroom." As we walked around the hangar and he showed me all the different types of work I'd be doing, it occurred to me that I've tried my hand at all of it. Sheet metal fabrication, welding, painting, wiring, engines; I've had always had an itch to learn more about all of it and here was a place where people who have had years of experience will work alongside of you, instructing you while you gain experience on real live missionary aircraft. How cool is that!? I had goosebumps the whole time we were walking through the hangars. I loved this place!
We ended up talking to Dan for three or four hours. I kept saying, "Don't you have to go?" and he kept saying, "No, it's just a baseball game. This is more important!" Our conversation covered the application process, the support raising process, Alaska (where Dan lives now working with Arctic Barnabas Ministries), miracles, the sovereignty of God, and Dan's own story of God coming through financially at the last minute for his family.
Janice and I walked out to the car to leave. I opened the door, stopped for a moment, and looked at her over the top of the car. "What do you think about all of this?" I asked. I was starting to learn that I should never make big decisions without my wife's input (which basically means I just go with whatever she decides).
Her eyes welled up and she started crying while nodding her head. "I had goosebumps the whole time." I smiled and sighed at the same time, happy that we found clarity but overwhelmed by the enormity of the task He was setting in front of us.
We started the application process and several months later went for our evaluation week at the hangar, along with our shiny new daughter, Adilene Grace Snader. We stayed at the Coates's house in their basement apartment. They were traveling while we were there so we babysat their Golden Doodles for them. We tried very hard to keep them comfortable and alive since I was sure killing their dogs would be a bad mark on our evaluation sheet. The dogs loved having us around. They were great hosts!
Josh getting a lot of ❤ tonight.
Evaluation week is emotionally exhausting. Imagine the character of you and your family being scrutinized for a week while you're staying as a guest in a staff member's house. We were torn between trying to appear like a perfect Christians who had no character flaws whatsoever and yet were trying to stay honest about our struggles, our doubts, and our abilities. It was important to me that the staff of MMS could make an educated decision on whether I was a fit for their organization yet I wanted so badly to be part of their organization that I was tempted to gloss over things that might disqualify me in their minds.
I couldn't have succeeded in pulling the wool over their eyes anyway. I could tell the folks at MMS Aviation did this evaluation thing before. They never did anything to intimidate us and were very nice but they certainly knew the right questions to ask. I felt like it was one long counseling session. It was like putting a curious gopher on your soul and just letting it burrow down into the parts you didn't even know you had. Bob, the Director of Training at MMS, would peer deep into your eyes as you casually explained why you preferred a Big Mac to a Whopper. "That's interesting" He'd say, "How does your view of God affect that decision?" Within two minutes I'm sharing more than I thought I was going to share about my view on God, and I'm surprised that a casual mention of a hamburger got us there.
Then I got to actually work on some airplanes. We checked the fuel filter on a Cessna 206 which resulted in avgas getting spilled all over me. Cool! I thought to myself. I have avgas all over me. This is awesome! I felt like a real airplane mechanic and I liked that feeling.
After that Josh, the engine room manager, showed me how to install safety wire on propeller bolts. "Now," Josh said, "You're not a real aircraft mechanic until you've stabbed yourself with safety wire hard enough that you bleed. Trust me, it'll happen." He showed me how to loop it and twirl it, kind of like a ballerina with a pair of pliers. "I'll be back in a few minutes to check to see how you've done." Josh left the hangar. I started looping and twirling safety wire like a drunken sailor. I gotta be careful, I thought to myself, Maybe I can impress him with my hand eye coordination. Why, I'll bet I'll be the only one he's ever seen who can do this without bleeding. Now just loop it around… OUCH! I had just rammed safety wire into my palm and now I was bleeding on the floor. Cool. I'm a real airplane mechanic! This was way more fun than building models.
Since I was applying for both the mechanical apprenticeship and the pilot apprenticeship, I would also have to undergo a short evaluation by Missionary Air Group. MAG works in partnership with MMS and administers the pilot training after apprentices are done with the 30 month mechanical apprenticeship at MMS Aviation. Steve, the Chief Operating Officer at MAG, swung by to check in on some projects MAG had in the hangar and to take me for an evaluation flight in Bob's Cessna 172 to see if I screamed like a little girl as soon as my feet left the ground. I didn't, thankfully. I don't even scream on roller coasters. I didn't even scream while skydiving until I was halfway to the ground and I realized that maybe I should live a little. I'm not a screaming sort of guy.
This is Bob's Cessna 172 and that's me riding with Steve on my evaluation flight.
At the end of the week, the staff had their big powwow to see if they would invite the Snader family to join their program. I nervously wandered around the hangar, wondering if this was the last chance I would get to tinker around with aircraft. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed fiddling with airplanes, even more than I thought I would. I was trying not to get my hopes up because I didn't want to get them crushed if they told me to take a hike, but I really wanted to be part of all this! Bob find me staring at a Cessna in the hangar. "We're ready for you!" He said, seemingly cheerful. We went up to the conference room. I felt like we were standing in front of jury waiting for our verdict. I guess we were, in a way. "We decided to accept your adorable daughter, Adi, into the program," Bob said with a smile, "And you guys can come along too if you want." Yes! We were officially invited into the pilot/apprentice program at MMS Aviation in November of 2017!
After an entire week of evaluation we are exhausted and excited at the same time. Starting a the journey as aviation missionaries will be a whole new world for us.
I often think of that phrase from the wedding I was at: "Sometimes God calls us to do something that's too big to accomplish on our own." It's true. I'm super thankful that God gave me a wife that's with me through everything and has a heart for the nations (plus a lot of patience). We are in the process of raising support right now and I've often leaned on Janice when I thought we were stuck and going nowhere and she would dutifully encourage me and reignite that little spark of hope that I needed to send out a few more letters and make a few more calls. We still need to raise 100% of our required support quota before we can move to Ohio and begin our apprenticeship and it's been quite the journey so far. If you feel like you want to become part of this crazy story, become a monthly supporter by clicking here!
We're so excited to be part of God's call to reach the far corners of the world with the Gospel. We plan on following God anywhere he leads, wide eyed with wonder, as He reveals each step to us. Thank you for reading our story and please consider sharing it with people who are interested in investing (prayerfully or financially) in the Great Commission (you'll find share buttons below the article).

Electromagnetic vibration energy harvesters including magnetically levitated devices where opposing magnets are used to form the spring have been well documented. The strength of the magnets naturally has a large influence on the dynamic characteristics and output power of such harvesters. However, it can be affected by ambient temperatures which vary from applications to applications. This paper presents investigation into the performance of a magnetically levitated electromagnetic energy harvester under various ambient temperatures. Parameters investigated include magnetic flux density, resonant frequency, damping ratio, open circuit output voltage, velocity of the relative motion and the load resistance. Both simulation and experimental results show that these properties vary with ambient temperatures. The magnetic flux density reduces as the temperature increases which results in lower resonant frequency, lower relative velocity, lower open circuit output voltage and higher damping ratio. Varying resonant frequencies with temperature can lead to harvesters being de-tuned from the target vibration frequency. Decreasing magnetic field strength and increased damping ratios will also reduce output power even if the harvester's resonant frequency still matches the environmental vibration frequency. The power transferred to the electrical load will be reduced due to the variation in the optimal load resistance with temperature. This means the harvester is no longer matched to achieve the maximum harvested power. The specified maximum operating temperature of the magnets was found to lead to partial demagnetisation. When cycling from room to the maximum specified temperature, the magnetic field was initially found to fall but remained constant thereafter. Harvesters were found to operate beyond the specified maximum operating temperature of the magnet, but suffer from a reduced magnetic strength.

In a highly anticipated ceremony on Thursday, President Trump signed an executive order directing the government to take action in protecting free speech on college campuses. It wasn't something that enthused the liberal broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and, NBC) so they omitted it from their evening broadcasts.

Federal prosecutors have charged more than 50 people involved in cheating and bribery in order to get their children admitted to some of the nation's most prestigious colleges and universities such as Georgetown, Yale, Stanford, University of Texas, University of Southern California and UCLA. They often paid more than $100,000 to rig SAT or ACT exams. In some instances, they bribed college officials and secured their children's admissions to elite schools through various fraud schemes.
On CNN, NYT columnist and CNN contributor Frank Bruni suggests that a legal donation to Harvard made by Jared Kushner's father is not "morally different" from the crimes committed in the college admissions scandal. And so it was that this morning, CNN, with a big assist from New York Times columnist and CNN contributor Frank Bruni, found a way to tie the Trump family to the admissions scandal.

Workers Canned for Fixing Families' Parking Tickets
Nepotism gets you nowhere
Published August 11, 2009 • Updated on August 11, 2009 at 1:01 pm
Fixing parking tickets is a no-no, even if it's for friends and family. Six (ahem, former) employees from Nassau County's Traffic and Parking Violations Agency got fired after the agency caught them violating that rule.
Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi says the six workers fixed more than 100 tickets, costing the state and county up to $25,000 in lost revenue.
"There remains a zero-tolerance for waste, fraud and abuse in this administration," Suozzi said. "How dare these workers betray the public's trust? They're out of here today."
The nepotistic workers had access to the agency's computer system. They dismissed charges, eliminated fines and surcharges, and changed the dates for court proceedings. In one case, a worker generated a refund for someone who had already paid a fine.
The probe, which began in March, has led to changes in policy. District Attorney Kathleen Rice said she is investigating possible criminal charges.
"What's clear here is that there was a line for those with connections and a line for the average Joe," Rice said. "To me this is more than just waste, fraud and abuse. I think this betrayal of the public trust is criminal and I'm going to do everything I can to prove it."
The department's initial investigation showed quite a trail of evidence implicating the workers in the fraud. Angela Petty, a Clerk, changed the plea status of cases -- even dismissing some -- for relatives and friends.
Another clerk, Celia Capozzoli, tried to bail her son out of ticket trouble by changing case records in the computer system. The tickets ranged from speeding to running a red light, not wearing a seat belt and parking offenses, authorities found. Clerk Roseanna Alveari entered the system and kicked cases for her son as well, authorities said.
Mary Green, a secretary with the agency, tried to do the same for her nephew. Investigators say she delayed a case for three years; they accuse her of dismissing charges and eliminating all fines and surcharges imposed by the traffic court.
An assistant director, Joseph Butindari, used his position to help his niece and his brother -- and keyboard operator Priscilla Jordan used hers to drop summonses against her daughter, her friend and herself, investigators found.

A mall, a lady, and some slut-shaming – another sad day in India's 'rape capital'
They say sometimes a woman is a woman's worst enemy. In this instance, they have hit the nail on the head. In a mall in Delhi's suburb of Gurugram, a middle-aged lady allegedly slut-shamed a bunch of young women openly. She was not their mother, or even someone they remotely knew. No, this was a random 'aunty' who was simply not pleased with the way the girls were dressed. According to her, their outfits were indecent and they deserved everything nasty that came their way. When the girls retaliated, saying they were comfortable in their skin and in their shorts, ...

Game of Thrones has not only failed the Night King, but also its badass women
If there is one thing I've grown to expect every Monday as I wake up at six in the morning to watch Game of Thrones, it is the feeling of disappointment that inevitably follows the end of every episode. This isn't even limited to this season; many would agree that the show has been struggling for a while, now that it no longer has George RR Martin's brilliant source material to fall back on. **Spoilers alert** Fans watched in disappointment as all the Martells and Tyrells were killed off, Jon was made Aegon Targaryen despite already having a half-brother with the ...

#IBelieveHer, and so should you
Throughout her advocacy for sexual assault survivors, Tarana Burke, the founder of the Me Too movement, has mentioned how action being taken in any particular case does not bring her personal joy. She repeatedly reminds us how this is not what the movement is about – it is about healing for the survivors. Burke is not delusional with the idea that sexual harassment will disappear from the world over the next decade, but she believes a shift in narratives – how we talk about it – is possible by then. If you've been sexually harassed or assaulted write 'me too' as ...

Last week saw tensions between India and Pakistan escalate further, as India launched an attack on Balakot and Pakistan responded the next day by downing two Indian jets and capturing an Indian Air Force (IAF) pilot. Soon after, a video circulated on social media in which the captured pilot, Abhinandan Varthaman, can be seen blindfolded, his face bloodied as he shares his name, rank and service details on camera. The video was later taken down, but the Indian forces, in a joint conference, began to allege that Pakistan had violated the norms of the Geneva Convention. The same Indian ...

5 reasons why Cheekh is unlike any Pakistani drama so far
Bidding adieu to 2018 with some great Pakistani dramas, our local industry has welcomed the new year with even better ones.

The latest attempt to bring something new to the palate of drama lovers is the drama serial Cheekh. Starring the stunning Saba Qamar and heartthrob Bilal Abbas Khan in the lead roles, this new show is something very out-of-the box as we have not seen anything similar coming from our drama-makers in the recent past.

Does judicial bias really favour women who cover themselves?
The tendency to judge others is a widely prevalent phenomenon in humans. Unfortunately, judicial bias may have significant consequences for the alleged perpetrator, especially in sexual assault cases. After all, neutrality and impartiality are of utmost importance in such cases in order to ensure a fair trial. The Supreme Court of Pakistan defined bias in Asif Ali Zardari's case, reported as Pakistan Legal Decisions (PLD) 2001 SC 568, as: "'Bias' has been held synonymous with 'partiality', and strictly to be distinguished from 'prejudice'. Under particular circumstances, the word has been described as a condition of mind, and has been held to ...

Even Karan Johar, who calls himself a 'feminist', doesn't understand that 'no means no'
Karan Johar is the king of love triangles; perhaps even 'love squares' at times. After all, most of the movies he has directed, including Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Student of the Year, have the same elements at play and this formula seems to work for Johar. However, it seems too much to expect his movies to also make sense, as very rarely do they possess an actual plot that doesn't include a Rahul falling in love with an Anjali.

Haiwan: When will our dramas stop misrepresenting rape and child abuse?
While highlighting social taboos and evils through local dramas is a bold initiative that our entertainment industry has been taking for around two years now, it doesn't always hit the mark. At times, our serials normalise things that ought not to be, sometimes in the wake of ratings and sometimes because the makers want to portray situations as close to reality as possible. Recently, the much-hyped drama serial Haiwan, that kicked off the trend of #MyChildMyResponsibility on social media, concluded on a deeply unsatisfactory note. A drama that was meant to give a strong message of protecting children from the predators that ...

Q: Person to Person Trading in Guild Wars 2 The one thing I couldn't figure out this weekend if it was possible to do person to person trades like you can in Guild Wars 1. Is that possible or will it only be limited to the Auction house or Guild Storage?

A: The only way to do person to person trading is to use the mailing system. This is a deliberate decision to encourage the use of the cross-server Trading Post (auction house), to discourage people standing around in common areas shouting "Want to Buy/Sell/Trade", and also to discourage the likelihood of players getting scammed through those player trades.
Face-to-face player trading is not in game and will not be in the game at launch. In a fansite interview with Colin Johanson, the Lead Content Designer, he stated the following, emphasis mine:

How has player to player trade been improved?
Colin told us about the marketplace. In the marketplace the player has the ability to not only buy and sell items like a traditional auction house, but also place "Wanted" ads in there stating which item they'd like and for what price. In this system a seller can activate the ad and the transaction will automatically occur with both items being removed from the two players inventories.
Similarly, personal player to player trade can be done through the in-game mail system (see above question for details). Unfortunately, there is no face-to-face trade (ala GW1) in the game at launch.

As of release, there is no COD for mailing, which means it is still possible to be scammed through mail trading.

Pupils Bond with 007 Star
She led a school revolution in the recent St. Trinian's film and will soon be dicing with death in the new Bond movie, but actor Gemma Arterton faced her toughest assignment yet on Monday when she was grilled by pupils at a Hampstead school.
The 23-year-old star, who beat 1,500 other contenders to the coveted Bond girl role, was quizzed by the enquiring minds of year 5 and 6 youngsters at Christchurch Primary School.
Thanks to close ties between parents of pupils at the school and the movie industry, the children are taking on the mantle of Hollywood producers. Over the course of the term, they will learn how to use camcorders, edit their shots and will work with costume designers from The Golden Compass before premiering the short films they have made at The Everyman Cinema later in the year.

New Bond girl spills the beans on Quantum of Solace.
by Chris Tilly, IGN UK
UK, January 29, 2008 – Gemma Arterton has only been acting for six months, but the 22-year-old has already won plum parts in Brit flicks St. Trinian's, 3 and Out and Guy Ritchie's forthcoming RocknRolla. If that wasn't enough, she's also playing a Secret Service agent in new Bond film Quantum of Solace, and IGN interviewed her on set last week to discuss landing one of cinema's most sought after roles.
You've been a Bond girl for a little while now — is it still exciting or is the novelty starting to wear off a bit?
Gemma Arterton: No, every day there's something exciting that happens, like I just got asked to present at the BAFTAs, which I can't do because I'm filming this, but little things like that. I've only just left drama school and have been working professionally for six months, so all of this is out of this world. It doesn't feel real still. That's why I wasn't too nervous on the first day because I just felt like it was a game. The size of it hasn't hit me yet, but I'm sure that it will.

In a major break from its peer institutions, Cornell University has agreed with its graduate students to hold a union representation election, to be held on October 23rd and 24th. The agreement ends an adversarial hearing process that would have likely taken months to resolve.
Cornell is the first private university employer to agree to a graduate student election and its results, although it has reserved the right to withdraw from this agreement and enter 45 day renegotiations should other major private universities win their lawsuits blocking the results of union elections.
The July 12 agreement covers approximately 2,200 teaching assistants, research assistants, graduate research assistants and graduate assistants.
The deal comes three months after graduate students filed a petition with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), which began hearings on the matter in June.
"They've seen the writing on the wall," said Joan Moriarty grad, a member of the Cornell Association of Student Employees/United Auto Workers (CASE/UAW).
As part of the settlement, CASE/UAW shrank the proposed size of any union from over 4,400 to half that by excluding undergraduates, readers, graders, students in the professional schools (law or veterinary medicine) and hourly workers.
"[CASE/UAW] originally identified a larger number of groups than the big four we considered employees," Dullea said, referring to the TAs, RAs, GRAs and GAs covered.
If they win a majority vote in the election scheduled, the CASE/UAW will enter negotiations with the University to create a contract.
In a 2000 decision, the National Labor Relations Board held that graduate students at New York University (NYU) were also employees, reversing a long-standing precedent.
Facing similar student unionization movements, Columbia and Brown universities appealed the NYU case and are currently awaiting a decision from the full NLRB.
"If the Brown and Columbia appeal is victorious and we haven't signed a contract, then we could be back to square one," said Robb Willer, grad, another organizer of the CASE/UAW.
Only days before a July 9 hearing, the parties began negotiations to search out common ground.
The administration also had encountered difficulty with the hearings process. "The hearings would have involved hundreds if not thousands of faculty and administration [hours] to go over specific functions performed by individuals," Dullea said.
With an election now scheduled, both sides are preparing to lobby for votes.
The University will "speak directly to the appropriateness of union representation for the designated graduate students," stated Mary G. Opperman, vice president for human resources, according to a University press release.
