Here at the Meadows we believe in the development of the whole child, not just their academic achievements. We offer our young people a curriculum which builds not just on their literacy and numeracy progress but their health, independence, communication and enrichment goals set out by their Educational Healthcare Plan (EHCP).We want to improve and celebrate the successes of what the child needs to be as independent as possible to live happy, fun and interesting life's when their time at the meadows ends. Outdoor education plays an essential role for our young people to develop, achieve and practice the skills learnt in a traditional classroom and fulfil their wellbeing andenrichment so that they can express their needs, be happy, and lead fulfilled lives.
· Meeting preferred learning styles, especially kinaesthetic and our sensory learners.
There are various opportunities for young people to go on a residential throughout their time at the Meadows. Pupils will participate in the Duke of Edinburgh Award and will have the opportunity to complete an expedition for 2-5 days. We also offer general residential to Frank Chatham centre.
Classes have various trips to support their learning and offer enrichment opportunities to approved providers and attractions such as; children farms, Black country museum, Severn valley railway, soft play centres, other special schools, cinemas, bowling, restaurants, local parks and the Snowdome. In key stage 3 our young people have also had the opportunity to go the Western- Super-mare.
The Meadows is lucky to have some excellent facilities to help support young people's learning, enrichment and experiences which include the Forest School site, The Nature Trail, adventure play area, the MUGA, the Horticultural Centre and a huge amount of disability and specialist equipment that supports sensory and physical development of our young people.
We have regular forest school classes throughout the year, which are offered to different classes in half-termly blocks. Time is take to carefully plan sessions to suit every child who attends the sessions. Our young people really enjoy their time in the forest, our forest school leaders love the ethos, and watching our young people develop a curiosity and interest in the natural world.
The horticultural centre has been used to educate our young people about growing, caring and being safe when growing plants and crops. In Post16, young people have grown their own food to sell at fund raisers to help raise money for their young people.
We make use of the local community to help support pupils skills for life after the meadows. Young people in Post16 have weekly trips to use sports facilities in the local area and gain some work experience with our Partnerships, which include the National Canal Trust. Young people also have trips to local colleges where they complete modules and gain experience of potential placements when they leave the Meadows.
In key stage, 4 pupils are currently working with the local Temple, the Dudley Canal Trust for their work experience and volunteering section for their Duke of Edinburgh Award. We are always looking for more partnerships with other organisations to offer our young people some experience of working with people outside our school community.As part of their life-skills, young people make regular visits to the local community, using the local parks and facilities, visiting the shops, supermarkets and the local library, using public transport and sometimes walking to help develop their travel training skills.
We also invite people from the local community to support learning within the classroom, including the Eco Bus, the fire service and the local police.
Enrichment has been a key area that we wish to develop at the Meadows, which has included some excellent partnerships with West Bromwich Albion, The REP theatre company, The Open Orchestra based at the MAC, Yoga sessions, Chor partnerships with other local special schools and regular visits to Malthouse Stables.
There has been some excellent theme weeks that occur throughout the year, including Black History week, which involved a African Tribe coming into the school and leading a great show and lead workshops which looked at art culture and music developed by the tribe.
Our young people have also enjoyed taking part in Arts enrichment Week led by INGRESTRE, singing, dancing and playing instruments and performing in front of their peers at the end of the week.

Never been much of a Pats fan, and don't usually give a rip who wins the Super Bowl but I agree with Lynn here. The more I think about the behavior of Philly fans the more I hope Brady and the Pats run up the score and completely embarass them.
I don't actively root for the Patriots but I sure respect greatness.
I used to argue that BB made Tom Brady. Now I just believe they came together.
Jealous as **** but man what they've done is jaw dropping.
The ultimate winning machine. No matter how much hate piles up.
I never wondered why people respect them. I have just wondered why people cheer for them.
Lets face it, a couple teams are always going to be playing longer than others. In every sport.
And I don't stop watching the games just because my team gets beat out early.
So I latch on to a team or two that are always there. I can't watch games without wanting one team to win.
The Pats were an easy choice to me, and yes, smartasses, all the way back to Tony Eason. and Steve Grogan, and Jim Plunkett.
Raiders before that. Yankees in baseball, when they aren't there, the Giants. Kings in hockey, when they aren't there, the Sharks. Lakers for many years, or the Spurs.
Its not that difficult of a concept imo. I'm going to watch, and I'm going to pull for one or the other. And after I watch one year after year after year I get attached to them.
Would love to watch my Minnesota teams chase championships right down to the bitter end of every year. There's a problem there tho, and I don't think it's MY fault.
Funny thing is Boston fans in any sport are not much better.
All fan bases have knuckleheads, but the Philly fans are pretty much legend.
And for the other Scott (SoMNFan) - I guess I can see where you're coming from, but for me that's not how I watch championship games. Most of the time I really don't care who wins (and some of the times I don't even watch because of that lack of caring). If I DO care, it's usually because I'm cheering AGAINST a team, which means that the team I "want to win" really never earns a place in my heart securely because I'm not actively rooting for them.
I can't think of a time when I've ever had the experience you have - cheering for another team to win a game and then having that grow into being a fan of that team.
I am just as floored, to hear there are people who watch big games and do not choose a side to pull for.
Fun stuff that makes us all different.
What's in the water in Boston? Man, I have no desire to ever visit that city. I think I'll go to Fenway last on my goal of going to all the baseball stadiums.
On Friday, former Patriots tight end and a co-host of WEEI's Ordway, Merloni & Fauria show, Christian Fauria was suspended after displaying an impressive lack of awareness during a sketch by doing a stereotypical impression of Brady's agent Don Yee during a skit.
Fauria begins the skit by saying he'll be Yee and begins speaking with an Asian accent. He then adds, "For me, I don't know why, Don Yee sounds like an Asian guy," while his co-hosts giggled. Nobody had the maturity or awareness to reel it in until his co-hosts pull up audio of the real Yee speaking.
WEEI later doubled down on their lack of self-awareness by posting the skit's audio on their Twitter account before removing the audio link from their page.
Not only was the accent offensive and over top, Don Yee doesn't even speak with a Chinese accent. Yee is of Chinese descent, but he's also a US citizen who was born in Sacramento, California, not far from Fauria, attended UCLA for undergrad and earned his law degree at the University of Virginia. Fauria's insistence on using a racist stereotype for the amusement of his listeners is entertainment for the lowest common denominator.
It's almost as if the entire station is in a death pact to alienate themselves from Brady as much as possible. WEEI issued a statement afterward apologizing and announcing that Fauria has been suspended five days.
Are they an official group now? Should it be the Deplorables?

We're land-dwelling creatures. To most of us, the ocean is complex and somewhat mysterious. But more professionals are needed to understand the sea's resources and full potential. If you think you can answer some of these complex questions, consider majoring in ocean engineering. This program will prepare you to apply scientific and mathematical principles to the development, design and evaluation of various systems. You'll learn to control, manipulate and control environments like flood control systems, tide and current warning systems. You'll also gain valuable knowledge about the planning and design of overall systems that function underwater. This means you will be able to analyze the engineering problems of water and its properties on people and physical systems. In time you'll learn about thermal dynamics and the preservation of resources found mainly within oceans. Once you've graduated, you will truly realize the career options available are not as restrictive as it may seem. You could end up working for the government, private sector, or even nonprofit development groups.

The Goldman Sachs stock price fell yesterday (Thursday) on what was a wildly successful earnings season for the investment banking giant.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE: GS) earnings crushed estimates across the board. But traders on the day were correct in their assessments. GS stock is not one to pile into right now.
In fact, big bank stocks are not the best place to put your money. And Goldman Sachs has its own challenges ahead...

Wall Street is about to get paid back by D.C.'s new bosses. Because all politicians are snakes. And some of them are rattlesnakes.
On Jan 14, the House of Representatives passed an act providing banks an additional two years to comply with the Volcker Rule. What does this mean?
It means that extra time will make the 1% richer. Here's how it works…
By Shah Gilani, Capital Wave Strategist, Money Morning • @WallStreet_II - April 23, 2014
The Volcker Rule is supposed to ban banks from making hazardous and speculative trades.
But the big banks are begging for the chance to make the same kind of moves that got us into the 2008 global credit crisis, one of the worst in the modern world.
It's like they never learned their lesson...
The Big Banks reporting earnings this week will be one of the most significant events of 2014. In the big picture, how the banks fare and what their future prospects are could single-handily determine the trajectory and breadth of the recovery we've been hoping for. Even more importantly,
their "financials" could have major implications for your money...

After several fits and starts, the Volcker Rule is finally reality, even if doesn't take effect until July 2015. The big question is whether this regulation will have the teeth to effectively curb the risky proprietary trading of the Too Big to Fail Banks.
There are more than a few reasons to be skeptical...
By Diane Alter, Contributing Writer, Money Morning - December 11, 2013
After two years of review and lengthy revisions, all five regulatory agencies unanimously passed the controversial Volcker Rule on Tuesday.
The 953-page new version of the Volcker Rule imposes a strict ban on proprietary trading (when banks use their own funds to make trades). In effect, it bans banks from trading for their own gain. Included in the revised version is new wording targeting the sort of risk taking that was responsible for last year's $6 billion trading loss at JPMorgan.

The Too Big to Fail Banks thought they had Congress completely flummoxed by the complexity of their trading strategies. Any rules that emerged from the Dodd-Frank law would be full of loopholes, or utterly toothless. But then one member of the club did something incredibly stupid. Now, for the first time in years, Washington is
close to clamping down on some of Wall Street's worst excesses...
By Shah Gilani, Capital Wave Strategist, Money Morning • @WallStreet_II - November 20, 2013
The 2010 Dodd-Frank law was conceived with the best of intentions - curb the bad behavior of the Too Big to Fail banks that caused the 2008 financial crisis. Front and center was the Volcker Rule, which was to stop the banks' risky and dangerous proprietary trading. Three years later the Volcker Rule has yet to see the light of day,
but how it's changing is what we really need to worry about...
By Garrett Baldwin, Behavioral Trading Specialist, Money Morning - August 1, 2013
On July 21, the Dodd-Frank Act turned three years old.
But, unlike most three-year-olds who can walk and talk, this one hasn't gotten out of the crib yet...
You see, the Dodd-Frank Act was a promise to protect Americans from the excesses and ruthlessness of Wall Street. It was meant to streamline the regulatory process.
But three years later, we are still waiting for its full implementation.
In fact, as of last week, only 155 of 398 rules required by this law are considered final.
That's because instead of focusing on the systemic problems that caused the crisis, the pen to write the bill ended up in the hands of disconnected agencies and lobbyists.
Instead of fixing the serious problems of current law, Dodd-Frank failed to curtail Wall Street - just a few years after a major financial crisis.
At a time when Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-MA, and Sen. John McCain, R-AZ, have pushed for a new Glass-Steagall Act to reduce risk, some voices like Treasury Secretary Jack Lew argue that the Dodd-Frank bill will alleviate the problems of Too Big to Fail, systemic risk, and cronyism.
But we know that such arguments are spurious at best.
By kdowdle, Money Morning - June 28, 2012
JP Morgan Chase (NYSE: JPM) cannot escape its enormous loss on a credit derivatives bet gone bad.
The London Whale trade, as it is informally known, was originally reported as a $2 billion loss. But now The New York Times has reported the loss will total $9 billion -- and maybe more.
But Money Morning subscribers were well aware of the possibility JP Morgan's losses would exceed $4 billion or $5 billion. Money Morning Capital Wave Strategist Shah Gilani repeatedly said this "hedge" was really a bet, and was among the first to predict how large the losses would eventually turn out to be.
Gilani, who hosts the radio show "On the Money!" in addition to his Money Morning duties, had this to say about JP Morgan's ill-conceived bet:
"What it does is shine the light on what is actually happening. It's not the loss in terms of the money, it's the loss in terms of faith for [CEO] Jamie Dimon, that he has been pushing hard against the regulators... in particular to the Volcker Rule, saying there is no need for it and it and that banks have a good handle on their risk... and that we (JP Morgan) don't have a problem with it because we are just hedging."
Just hedging? Gilani certainly doesn't think so.
Gilani said that statement is a flat-out lie and that Dimon has basically lied to Congress in his testimonies over the past weeks.
In the testimony before the House Financial Services Committee last week, Dimon said the London unit had "embarked on a complex strategy" that exposed the bank to greater risk even though it had intended to minimize risk.
By Shah Gilani, Capital Wave Strategist, Money Morning • @WallStreet_II - February 24, 2012
In last week's Insights & Indictments, in my commentary on all the letters sent to the SEC about the proposed Volcker Rule, I not-so-casually commented that the Volcker Rule "shouldn't exist at all."
And then I called the parents of the Volcker Rule, the Dodd-Frank Act, a "joke."
Well, by the amount of comments I got back from I&I readers - right now, there are about 95,000 of you (and counting) - you'd think I was talking about something really controversial, like contraception, for heaven's sake.
Talk about passionate!
I understand that people get passionate about contraception. After all, without all that passion, we wouldn't need contraception.
But me being passionate about the birth of the Volcker Rule, which I said should never had been conceived, apparently caused a lot of to you think I crossed some moral line.
Not me! I'm not one to ever say anything controversial! And I'm certainly not the kind of guy to wade into the contraception debate.
But, if I was, I'd be a strong advocate for it.
The unwelcome birth of the Volcker Rule is a good example...
To continue reading, please click here....
Right now everyone's talking about the Volcker Rule.
For heaven's sake! What's the big deal? After all is said and done, there is only one real problem with it (and I'll get to that in a minute)...
The 300-page draft Rule, named after its champion architect, former Federal Reserve chairman and inflation-fighting icon Paul A. Volcker, is an addition to the ever-evolving masterpiece of legislation (yes, I'm being sarcastic) known as the Dodd-Frank Act.
Now, draft SEC rulemaking and regulatory actions are first submitted to the public for "comment." The SEC collects all comment letters and posts them on their website.
Well, wouldn't you know it, this draft (some might call it "daft") Volcker Rule has caused a flurry of letter writing; letters were due to the SEC by no later than this past Monday evening.
All in all, this august (not the month) regulatory body received 241 detailed comment letters (that's a lot of comment letters) and an astounding 14,479 mostly form letters, as well.
Almost all of the form letters to the SEC, many of which were "personalized" by submitters, were strongly in favor of the Volcker Rule and called for strengthening it and not watering it down by allowing any exemptions.
How do I know that? (No, I didn't read them all.) They resulted from an e-alert campaign to activist supporters of the Americans for Financial Reform group and Public Citizens, who posted appeals on their websites.
Other notable comments in favor of the Rule, and weighing-in in more detail, came from Paul Volcker himself and Senators Carl Levin (D-MI) and Jeff Merkley (D-OR), who championed the Volcker Rule in the Dodd-Frank legislation and in their comments called the draft too "tepid."
The lengthiest comment letter in favor of the Rule (and of tightening it significantly) came in the form of a 325-page love letter from the Occupy Wall Street movement.
However, of those 241 detailed comment letters, most of them came from detractors.
Detractors like individual banks (who normally let their dogs and lobbyists do their biting) and industry groups, such as the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (Sifma) and the Center for Capital Markets Competitiveness at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Powerhouse law firm Davis Polk was itself drafted by several banks and Sifma to help draft at least 10 letters on behalf of the cause ("cause" banks want to keep making big bonuses).
Detractors of the Volcker Rule warned of dire consequences for American capital markets, American corporations, the American economy, the world, and the universe beyond even our own little constellation, if the Rule is allowed to curtail their most coveted and conscientious shepherding of their clients' best interests.
Prop Trading, Market Making and the Volcker Rule
The Volcker Rule comes down to this:
By David Zeiler, Associate Editor, Money Morning • @DavidGZeiler - October 13, 2011
When the Volcker Rule regulations go into effect next year, its restrictions could slam the revenue of the fixed income trading operations of several major U.S. banks by as much as 25%.
The Volker Rule is one of the elements required by the Dodd-Frank financial oversight law, which was written to rein in the sort of excessive Wall Street risk-taking that led to the financial crisis of 2008.
A draft version of the rule was released this week by the U.S. Federal Reserve, which was approved by both the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) on Tuesday and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) yesterday (Wednesday).
The rule aims to ban proprietary trading, in which the banks traded for their own benefit rather than for the benefit of their customers, but also will address other areas such as hedge fund investing.
Since a significant chunk of the big banks' profits - especially that of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE: GS) and Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) - come from various forms of proprietary trading, the Volcker Rule stands to cost the industry billions in revenue.
To prevent cheating, complex compliance rules will require that banks prove that all their trading activities are for clients' benefit, and not proprietary. Compliance alone is expected to tack on another $2 billion in costs.
"[The Volcker Rule will] diminish the flexibility and profitability of banks' valuable market-making operations and place them at a competitive disadvantage to firms not constrained by the rule," noted a report by Moody's Corp. (NYSE: MCO).
The rule is named for former Fed Chairman Paul Volcker, who has made the case that such regulations are needed.
The new regulations will deal another blow to an already-struggling industry, which has watched earnings sag as a result of a falloff in equity trading volume, weak demand for loans, and costly legal headaches.
Although there's still time for the Volcker Rule to be tweaked before it takes effect on July 21, 2012, it will fundamentally change how the big banks operate.
The rule's impact on Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley will be particularly brutal, especially if the final version imposes broader restrictions.


A group of delegates announced a new bipartisan caucus — the Virginia State Future Caucus, aimed at millennials and the concerns of young people. It drew some ribbing for setting the age range at under 45, but the 19 new delegates who won in last fall's elections have injected youth into the House of Delegates. Before, only 22 percent of the House was under age 45; now, it's 34 percent, according to the Virginia Public Access Project.
A bipartisan, nationwide organization seeking to involve young people in politics has established a chapter in Virginia, focusing on such issues as student debt relief and government transparency, officials said Wednesday. The Millennial Action Project has created the Virginia Future Caucus, consisting of young lawmakers who vowed to work across party lines.
"Young people in general tend to be more idealistic and less partisan. So it's not surprising that younger evangelicals, who believe in Christian ideals such as caring for the poor and conserving the environment, are asking questions and are not rubber stamps for the President simply because of his partisan affiliation."
Decision #2016 will be moderated by Elahe Izadi, National Reporter for The Post, and feature Jamelle Bouie, Journalist at Slate; Steven Cruz, Millennial Spokesperson for The Libre Initiative; Steven Olikara, Millennial Action Project; Matthew Segal, Co-Founder of OurTime and ATTN; and Sunlen Serfaty, National Correspondent at CNN. The town hall-style forum will identify key issues and millennial concerns leading up to the next presidential election.
Between June 2 and 8, Millennial Week — which received a ceremonial proclamation from D.C. Mayor Vincent C. Gray (D) — will feature six events, with more than 3,000 people currently registered.


CIVBP has closed below upper band by 10.3%. Bollinger Bands are 56.8% wider than normal. The large width of the bands suggest high volatility as compared to CIVBP's normal range. The bands have been in this wide range for 1 bars. This is a sign that the current trend might continue.


Who is your intended audience? Which platforms does this demographic tend to use most?
Which platforms are you the most comfortable with and which fit your brand best? Facebook and Twitter are great places to start, but if your service or product is visual in nature (if you own a clothing boutique or hair salon, for example), you may want to leverage the power of photos on Instagram and Pinterest to show off your goods.
How many platforms do you have time to update regularly? It's better to start with just one that you can commit to than spread yourself too thin across too many platforms.
Decide which platforms to create profiles on and add this task to your calendar.
Set a goal for how often you plan to post. For example, maybe you will create one blog a week on your business website, and update Facebook and Twitter three times a week.
Now it's time to dive in and set up new profiles, as well as edit existing ones. Aim for a cohesive feel and look across every platform that you use. Your profiles should feature the same profile photo (your logo, for example) and business name as well as similar taglines. You don't want to post the same exact content on each platform, but you do want the voice and tone to be cohesive.
Social media is meant to be interactive. Don't simply post and run, but instead spend time building relationships with customers as well as other business owners. Follow people and companies on all of your platforms, re-post content you enjoy, and take time to answer questions or address concerns in a genuine, professional manner.
Automating your posts via a service like HootSuite saves you time and makes you less likely to let your accounts go dormant. Set aside a time each week to craft all of your social media posts for the week. Then simply schedule them to appear at different times throughout the week using the automated service, instead of posting everything at once.
A savvy social media plan takes timing into account. If you post updates or publish content in the middle of the night when most people in your country are asleep, by the time they wake up and check their social media accounts, your content will be buried too far in their newsfeeds. Most experts say that posting to Facebook and Twitter during the afternoon and later in the week brings the most views and engagement.
If you are too busy with other aspects of running your small business to attend to social media, consider outsourcing this task. Hiring a virtual assistant or social media intern to spend a few hours a week managing your social media is well worth the cost if it brings you new business and frees up your time. Sites like upwork.com, zirtual.com, and even Craigslist will put you in touch with qualified freelancers and assistants.
Growing your business through social media doesn't have to be overwhelming. By incorporating these tips into your marketing plan, you will soon engage many potential new customers for your small business.

Q: Create electron transparent window ontop but clickable below programs I have created electron app which on button click shows another window which is 100% height and width and has border around its area. It's also transparent so you can see what is behind this window.
Now I'm wondering if I'm able to make things below clickable or I need to create some kind of hack like this new transparent window make it really small and somehow expand border off this window.
Code responsible for creating new transparent window is:
const electron = require('electron');
const { app, BrowserWindow, Menu } = electron;

let mainWindow;
let addWindow;
let createTransparentWindow;

app.on('ready', () => {
    mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({});
    mainWindow.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/index.html`);
    const mainMenu = Menu.buildFromTemplate(menuTemplate);
    Menu.setApplicationMenu(mainMenu);

    const mainScreen = electron.screen.getPrimaryDisplay();
    createTransparentWindow = () => {
        addWindow = new BrowserWindow({
            width: mainScreen.size.width,
            height: mainScreen.size.height,
            transparent: true,
            frame: false,
            alwaysOnTop: true,
        });
        addWindow.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/transparentWindow.html`)
    };
});

const menuTemplate = [
    {},
    {
        label: 'Record',
        submenu: [
            {
                label: 'TransparentWindow',
                click() {
                    createTransparentWindow();
                }
            }
        ]
    }
];

If I'm able to make apps which are below this window clickable please tell me how if not what kinda trick I need to introduce here?

A: I found answer to my question here. So what you need to browserWindow is:
addWindow.setIgnoreMouseEvents(true);
addWindow.setFocusable(false);

and then you can click through.

Gougouni jsou tři až pět centimetrů vysoké hrací figurky vyráběné katalánskou firmou Magic Box International. Jednotlivé figurky se liší tvarem i barvou a jsou určené pro různé hry, při kterých se hází a nebo třeba cvrnkají podobně jako kuličky.

Gougouni jsou vyráběni od poloviny devadesátých let 20. století. Velké popularity dosáhly právě koncem 90. let, kdy se v Kanadě a Spojených státech amerických dostaly k dětem milióny balíčků. Značného rozšíření dosáhly nejen díky prodeji, ale také díky partnerství s různými firmami, které je přidávaly ke svým výrobkům. Například řetězec rychlého občerstvení McDonald's je přidával ke svým dětským menu Happy Meal. V České republice začal podobným způsobem Gougouny používat od února 2013 obchodní řetězec Albert.

From a life long, genuine love of beads, Butik Beads was founded in 2010. All our offerings are authentic African trade beads that come to us directly from Africa. The glass beads date back as far as the late 1800's and were originally made in various European glass blowing countries such as Italy and Czechoslovakia. From there, they were traded into Africa for gold, earning their name, "trade beads". History tells us that beads were the first ever form of currency. The metal beads we offer are currently being made in Ethiopia.


The HDCD Technical Paper was presented at the 101st Audio Engineering Society Convention in Los Angeles in November 1996 by Keith O. Johnson and Michael W. Pflaumer, the inventors of HDCD technology. This paper will answer all the detailed technical questions you might have about how HDCD works.
Abstract: A conjugate record and playback system is described that enhances the resolution and sonic performance of digital audio recording based on linear pulse code modulation, while remaining compatible with standard linear playback. Using additional information encoded entirely in the program material, it addresses both the amplitude resolution and sampling rate limitations of the current commercial recording standards.
Open HDCD Technical Paper in PDF format.
The high accuracy of HDCD A/D and D/A conversion technology is essential to realize the full potential of any digital audio format. The Compact Disc is enormously successful, with more than 1.3 billion discs and more than 100 million players sold annually, and will be a major release format for at least the next 10 years, especially with its quality substantially improved by HDCD technology. In addition, new digital audio formats, such as the audio-only version of the DVD, will benefit greatly from the unequaled "life" and naturalness provided by HDCD A/D and D/A conversion and HDCD filtering technology.

The Gain Scaling Application Note explains one of the very powerful methods used in the HDCD process to increase the effective dynamic range of 16 bit recordings by up to 6dB. It describes the relationship between the HDCD encoding option called Peak Extend and the complementary decoding function called Gain Scaling.
Read HDCD Gain Scaling Application Note.
The HDCD Decoder FAQ answers many common questions about the HDCD process and provides interesting details on the HDCD hidden code. The FAQ covers basic decoding functions when playing back an HDCD encoded CD. The FAQ also answers several common questions about implementing a typical HDCD Decoder solution.

Rewind a few years, and buying a Kia Sportage was seen as a canny move by those in the know: good value, good equipment and good safety.
But time has passed, and the playing field has levelled. Now, the newly facelifted Sportage (which has barely noticeable changes to the lights and wheels and radiator mesh) has stiff competition from the Yeti, the Duster and, of course, the Qashqai. The good news is that it's still a decent car, with an excellent safety record, as well as a lot of equipment as standard - even on the lowest spec.
And, to be honest, the lowest specification is probably your best choice. The money you save by not going for a 3 spec you can then put towards an engine upgrade to the more powerful 2.0-litre diesel rather than go for the higher-spec (with nav, oooh) but lower-power 1.7 we drove for this test. The bad news for Kia is that the competition is fierce. Hell, some of it is even cheaper.


The Trump administration will allow states for the first time to impose work requirements on Medicaid recipients.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services released a guidance Thursday outlining what states need to do to mandate that certain Medicaid enrollees work to qualify for benefits. The agency is expected to start approving state waivers promoting "community engagement activities" in coming weeks.
The historic move would be a significant change in how the government health insurance program operates and would fulfill a longtime Republican goal. States, for instance, could require non-disabled, working age recipients to work, volunteer, go to school or enter a job training program. The guidance also includes caregiving as one of the activities.
"Medicaid needs to be more flexible so that states can best address the needs of this population. Our fundamental goal is to make a positive and lasting difference in the health and wellness of our beneficiaries, and today's announcement is a step in that direction," said Seema Verma, the agency's administrator.
Critics, however, argue that Republicans are using work requirements to thin the Medicaid rolls. They fear many recipients will be unable to meet the mandate and be left uninsured.
The agency provides states will a lot of flexibility in designing their programs and highlights that many recipients may need additional considerations.
For instance, the guidance notes that some Medicaid recipients may have trouble meeting these requirements because of poor health, substance abuse or high unemployment in their areas. States should take these issues — as well as recipients' employability — into consideration and allow for modifications or exemptions, the agency said. Pregnant women will also be exempt.
The agency specifically calls out the opioid epidemic, saying that time spent in treatment can count towards the mandate and those in intensive recovery programs can be excused. Many governors, including Republican ones, have defended the Medicaid program as being critical to addressing the substance abuse crisis.
States will be required to describe strategies to assist recipients in meeting the requirements and to link them to job training and support resources, including child care and transportation. However, they will not be allowed to use federal Medicaid funding to finance these services.
The agency is encouraging states to align their Medicaid work requirements with those mandated by other federal safety net programs. Recipients who meet the work requirements in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps, and by the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, must be considered in compliance with their state's Medicaid rules.
Republicans have long wanted to add work requirements to the Medicaid program, which covers nearly 75 million low-income children, adults, elderly and disabled Americans. The broadening of Medicaid to low-income adults under Obamacare — roughly 11 million have gained coverage under the health reform law's Medicaid expansion provision — further spurred GOP efforts.
However, the Obama administration did not approve any state waivers that would impose work mandates, saying it was not in keeping with the program's mission to provide access to medical services. Consumer advocates and health policy experts fear that such a requirement could prove a big hurdle for many recipients, leaving them without the care they need.
The guidance release Thursday pointed to several studies that said unemployment is harmful to one's health and can prompt higher rates of hospital admission and death, as well as poorer general and mental health.
Ten states — Arizona, Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Utah and Wisconsin — have submitted waivers that include work or community engagement requirements, according to the agency. South Dakota's governor said in his State of the State address Tuesday that he would also look to require certain recipients to work.
Verma, who served as a Medicaid consultant for Indiana and Kentucky before joining the Trump administration, has long advocated for work requirements. Now, she is in a position to approve them.
Many Medicaid recipients are already employed. Some 60% of non-disabled, working-age adults have jobs, while nearly 80% live in families with at least one member in the labor force, according to a Kaiser Family Foundation analysis. Most of those who don't work cite illness, disability or family obligations as the reason.
Many Medicaid enrollees may have physical or mental health problems — such as arthritis or asthma — that don't meet the criteria for federal disability programs, but still interfere with their ability to work, Kaiser said. Also, some could find it difficult to meet their state's work verification requirements.
"Eligible people could end up losing coverage because the right documentation does not get sent to the right place," said MaryBeth Musumeci, associate director of Kaiser's Program on Medicaid and the Uninsured.

11 thousand unidentified bodies were found among the ruins. One of 12, a 30 metre deep crater formed by deliberate underground explosions, the object of which was to push the entrenched German Army from the ridge overlooking the Woevre Plain.
The 'Forbidden Zone', where the land undulates with bisecting shell craters. The mature beech and pine forests that cover the hills above the city of Verdun are home to some of the Great War's most bitter fighting, as many as 150 shells fell for every square meter of this battlefield. 'The Battle of Verdun' as well as being the longest Battle of 'The Great War' also has the ignominy of being the first test of modern industrialised slaughter. Not for nothing was the battlefield of Verdun known to the soldiers who fought in it, as 'The Mincer', where over the entire period of the war almost a million men became casualties. Recent estimates made by The French interior Ministry state at least 12 million unexploded shells lie undiscovered in the hills overlooking the City of Verdun.

The dŽmineurs work in the areas designated 'Zone-Rouge' after the Armistice of 1918. Today the forest still remains out-of-bounds to the general public due to the continuing hazzard of the explosive remnants of war. The Department for the Interior, (France), estimate that there are twelve million unexploded shells from WWI, in the Verdun sector alone.

Dreams in reality
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
I am studying at my dream school, one of the top engineering universities of the world. This is the place where I can catch my goal of life. I strongly believe that.
The place to AVOID
The courses are badly organized. Teachers do not have time for you, they barely reply to emails. You cannot take extra courses. There seems to be no fixed schedule, each week you might have classes at a different time. The structures are old and although they look nice, they are terribly inconvenient. No water fountains, no coffee machines. Everything is overpriced, even...
Honest review
The theory lectures were useful but the it lacked practical aspect to it

About Scott Manor House
Scott Manor House is a registered provincial and municipal heritage property, owned by the Halifax Regional Municipality and managed by the Fort Sackville Foundation, a local Bedford history group and registered charity.
This wonderful old home is the only full two-and-a-half story gambrel-roofed colonial building in Nova Scotia, and possibly in Canada. The house has two lateral wings. Visible in the attic are the two wishbone chimneys where the flues from nine fireplaces (five in the north chimney, and four in the south) join to permit smoke to exit above the roof. Original hand hewn beams and attic floor boards remain, as does the original kitchen fireplace and bake oven. There is a full, fieldstone basement.
The manor house was built c. 1770 as the family home for Joseph Scott and his wife Margaret (Cottnam), beside Fort Sackville. Scott was an Irish settler who arrived in Halifax in 1749 with Edward Cornwallis. He was a merchant who later received several land grants, establishing saw mills and a grist mill on the Sackville River. He was appointed as a lumber surveyor, a justice of the peace, and a judge of the inferior court of common pleas, and was elected as a representative to the House of Assembly for Kings County. He also served in the militia.
After Joseph Scott's death in 1800, his house and lands had several owners. One owner, George Lister shaped the community by selling some of the land as building lots in Bedford's first subdivision in 1856, after the railway arrived. At the time of Confederation, the manor house was used as Willow Park Summer Hotel. The Ternan family lived at Scott Manor House the longest (from 1870 to 1945), adding a portion of the adjacent Fort Sackville site to the property in 1906. The next owners, Richard and Elsie Churchill Tolson restored the house, saving this important piece of Nova Scotia's built heritage. After the Town of Bedford bought the property in 1992, it was named "Scott Manor." Open to the public in the summer, visitors can tour the house and enjoy the grounds, visit exhibits, and access local history resources.
