Pension Fund Draft Annual Report and Accounts PDF 71 KB
(A report by Jo Ray, Pensions and Treasury Manager, in connection with the Committee the draft Annual Report and Accounts for the Pension Fund)
app A - Annual Report and Accounts , item 7. PDF 753 KB
The Board received the Pension Fund's Draft Annual Report and Accounts which had been considered by the Pensions Committee on 14 July 2016 and were currently being audited by KPMG. Officers stated that the Accounts were due to be submitted to the Audit Committee in September 2016, for approval. Officers stated that there were no material issues arising although there were some concerns raised at the Committee about the County Council's data but all of the necessary checks had been carried out. Once the final Accounts had been signed off by the Audit Committee employers would be notified by email that they were available on the Council's website. Scheme members would see a summary report in the Autumn newsletter and also be directed to the website for the full version.
Comments made by the Board and responses by officers where applicable, included:-
1. What was the reason for the large increase in management expenses? Officers gave an explanation for the increases and it was proposed to examine these costs with the objective of reducing them.
2. Discussion was had about the 10years annualised performance figures. Officers explained that in 2009/10 there were a number of asset allocation changes that were not reflected in a timely way in the strategic benchmark. This skewed the performance figures.
3. Surprise was expressed that there was no information about the 2016 triennial valuation's financial position. Officers stated that this information would appear in next year's report, as the valuation process was not completed until later this year.
4. There was a typing error on page 100 under "Funding", third paragraph, first line – deletion of "be" was required.
5. Comments were made as to the relevance of including the funding strategy statement, given its technical content and officers stated there was a requirement to include this in the Accounts.
6. What was the reason for the increase in membership numbers considering all of the cutbacks that had been made in Local Government? Officers stated that this was due to the need now to automatically enrol employees in to the pensions scheme across all employers.
7. What was the effect of Brexit on investments? Officers stated that markets had recovered very well since Brexit and some had, in fact, reached new highs. A risk register which included the effects of Brexit had been reported to the July meeting of the Pensions Committee. With regard to the valuation of liabilities, the drop in gilt yields following Brexit would have increased them.
8. Was the Fund's Actuary likely to change their approach to the triennial valuation? Officers stated that at the current time the Fund's Actuary was not proposing to make any changes to their approach.
The Board agreed that the Draft Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2016 was an excellent document.
That the comments made by the Board together with the responses by officers be noted and that the Draft Annual Report and Accounts be noted.
LGPS Asset Pooling and Presentation PDF 120 KB
(A report by Jo Ray, Pensions and Treasury Manager,which provides an update on Lincolnshire's progress to meet the Government's requirements on pooling LGPS assets and a presentation on how the Governance will work around the asset pool and the underlying Funds)
The Board received a report and presentation which provided an update on progress to meet the Government's requirements on pooling of Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) assets, following publication of the pooling criteria and investment regulations consultation on 25 November 2015.
Discussion between the Board and officers included the following topics:-
1. Officers stated that the Pensions Committee had agreed to pool the Lincolnshire assets with Border to Coast Pensions Partnership (BCPP) and outlined the reasons for the Committee pursuing this course of action together with progress to date.
2. As George Osborne was no longer the Chancellor of the Exchequer would the Government's stance on the pooling of assets still be required? Officers stated that since the change of Government there had been no change in pooling requirements.
3. Officers stated that, over the longer term, there was potential for substantial savings from the pooling arrangements after meeting initial setting up costs.
4. Officers stated that when the final outcome was known on the pooling of assets then the full Council would receive a presentation.
5. Would BCPP have similar investment strategies to that followed by other LGPS pools? Officers stated that investment strategies would vary as these were set at a Fund level and the pool's role was to implement the strategies of its members' funds.
6. Officers stated that detailed consideration would needed in the appointment of the Executive Body by the Joint Committee.
7. Officers stated that it was possible in the future for some of the current external Investment Managers to be terminated.
8. Officers stated that BCPP would be managed within the Local Government ethos as they would be Local Government companies.
9. Details of the post pooling governance structure were presented and the Board was able to ask whether the Pensions Committee was getting value for money from the arrangements.
10. Where would BCPP be based? Officers stated that it was likely that BCPP would be based in Leeds which had a thriving financial services industry and was a central location which all Funds could access.
11. What was the situation if investment managers appointed by BCPP did not perform well? Officers stated that this was the responsibility of the Executive Board.
12. Officers stated that BCPP would have a close relationship with Pension Fund Managers of the member Funds.
13. Investment decision making, composition of the Joint Committee, holding the asset pool operator to account, benchmarking and performance measures was explained.
14. What was the situation if the LGPS wanted to exit BCPP? Officers stated exiting BCPP would be expensive but an opt-out clause would exist in the governance arrangements.
15. Officers stated that it was a possibility that the Government might lool for asset pooling bodies to merge in the future.
That the comments made by the Board and the responses of officers in connection with the report and presentation, be noted.

As part of your picture marketing campaign, give people an opportunity to have fun and take free photos and videos of themselves with your branding at a live event through a social media photo booth. This connects your real-time efforts to showcase your product or service with everyone on the Web because the photos are uploaded to your online presence and shared by people on their social media profiles.
Get people excited about uploading their photos and videos with your branding by running a contest, sweepstakes or survey that requires voting, answering a question or completing an interactive challenge. Showcase the entries and results on your Facebook, Instagram or some other picture marketing friendly social media channel and allow visitors to comment on their favorites.
Achieve that zing factor in your picture marketing that compels people to share the images of their interaction with your brand by allowing them to add unique and interesting photo effects. You can also have live props and characters available to take images with that people would love to show off to their friends and family.
Choose and have people use a single official hashtag for your event. There are many methods you can use to publicize your hashtag, including incorporating it into physical items such as cocktail napkins, entrance bracelets, signage, video screen, printed materials and more. Plus, in addition to requesting people to use it you can also include it directly within their photo or video if it is uploaded to a social media photo booth.
Once a person has taken a photo at your event, why not give them the opportunity to print out their image to take home? Branded photos can be instantly printed with an onsite wireless printer. It provides another way that people can share it with others they know, spreading the word about their positive experience with your company.
For a great example of what picture marketing can achieve check out KLM and Visit Holland's 10 Seconds to Holland campaign. To win tickets to Holland, people were required to create a wish list of things to do in Holland and then upload their video onto the KLM or Visit Holland Facebook pages. The total reach of the contest was about 20,000 people per week and resulted in a substantial increase in Facebook fans for both companies.

The names on Rail Passes need to be exact as per passport, or the traveller will not be able to use it once in the United Kingdom. It is important to check that all names and details are correct. If you discover the names on your pass are incorrect, you will need to send it back to Rail Plus by traceable mail to get it reissued for a small fee.
Before using your Britrail Pass, you will need to get it validated at any manned ticket window at a train station. If an on-board train conductor has to do it for you, you will have to pay a fee.
It is also important to know that you must validate your Britrail Pass within 6 months of the date of issue.
You can begin your first journey after 00:00 hours on the first day of validity of your pass and you must finish your last trip by 24.00 hours on the last day of validity.
How often can I use my pass?
The number of journeys that your pass entitles depends on if you have a flexi or consecutive pass.
Flexi passes can only be used for a certain number of travel days within a set period. On your first date of travel, after your pass is validated, you must record the date in the travel calendar printed on the ticket. Not doing so will mean you risk a substantial fine or having your pass confiscated by the ticket inspector. NOTE: Please do not write travel dates on your Pass in advance of the day you travel as once written on a Pass these dates cannot be changed!
Consecutive passes can be used every day during the period in which the pass is valid.
You can travel on as many trains you can fit into one day's travel.
Seat reservations in the UK are not compulsory, therefore you can simply just hop on a train and sit where you like. However, it is recommended to make a seat reservation whenever possible during the European Summer period ( June to Sept and public holidays) as trains can fill up quickly and you may find yourself constantly moving out of other peoples reserved seats. If you cannot reserve seats before you leave Australia, we recommend you do so as soon as you get into the UK at any major station. Please note that having suggested to reserve a seat, on some regional trains it is not possible to make a reservation. With these trains you will always be able to travel but you may not always be guaranteed to be seated together.


Every week we publish new interviews with interesting members of the WordPress community.
If you just can't get enough of me—and reading all of my silly words on this blog aren't enough for you—then you can check out my interview about WPCandy on the Heart Internet blog. Text only, but still fun.
I'm very pleased to say that I recently had the opportunity to interview Ron and Andrea Rennick. They are two very valuable contributors to the WordPress project. Their expertise is WordPress Multisite, and much of their business today is around Multisite plugins, WordPress ebooks, and development specifically for multisite.
The download link and information about the discount code are just after the jump.
I was very excited last night to get to sit down with the three authors the brand new Professional WordPress Plugin Development, Brad Williams, Ozh Richards, and Justin Tadlock. All three were kind enough to join me on the WPCandy Stream and record an interview with me, which you can listen to below.
In the interview we discussed how it came about that they all collaborated on this book, what they learned during the process, and how they practically managed the collaboration process. I'm also happy to say that this interview was the first time the three have shared a phone call. Think about that one for a second.
Of course if you read WPCandy, you should absolutely purchase Professional WordPress Plugin Development. While I can't officially review it yet (my copy's in the mail), knowing the quality of work that these guys do individually I expect only the best from their book.
The interview runs about 45 minutes, and of course concludes with their own individual WordPress plugin picks at the end. Oh, and a few times in the interview I reference a video Ozh made to assist people pronouncing his name, which is why I might pronounce it halfway decently in the recording.
So who has their book already headed their way?
There have been days for all of us where we have been sitting at our desk in the office and the thought of chucking it all and just setting up our own shop crosses our minds. No lame meetings, no politics, just doing what we are passionate about and ditching lame clients. Come on, admit it.
What has held most of us back is that pesky notion of paying bills and eating that really gets in the way of following our dreams. If you have ever had your own consulting business you are painfully aware of the "feast or famine" effect that makes us rethink the whole thing. If you are considering a career freelancing with WordPress one question you are likely to have is: Where will I get exposure and find clients?
Today we are interviewing Brian McDaniel (aka BK MacDaddy) a WordPress freelancer that has been pretty successful at keeping himself busy with the help of social media. In the interests of full disclosure, Brian and I were following each other on Twitter and we found mutual interests and eventually met up based on what we were tweeting about. When Brian announced he was moving back to San Francisco on Twitter, via a series of messages we ended up getting together for a couple of beers with a few other friends.
Read the full interview just after the break.
Last week saw a pretty huge announcement: WordPress.com is now offering premium themes, one from WooThemes and the other from The Theme Foundry. And by all accounts the Automattic Theme Team plans on adding quite a few more paid themes to WordPress.com yet this year. We dug into the announcement and background information last week, but still had a few questions. So we sat down for a few minutes with Lance Willett, of Automattic, to see if he could share a bit more with us about the latest addition to WordPress.com.
Lance Willett is a Theme Wrangler at Automattic. The Theme Wranglers, also referred to as the Theme Team, spend their days and nights thinking about how to improve WordPress themes. In the interview, posted below, we discuss the response they've seen to the themes on WordPress.com, theme pricing, and even Automattic's plans to throw their hat into the paid theme market.
I had a great time interviewing David Perel of Obox Themes recently. We discussed how Obox started out, where the name came from, and how they decide what project to take on next.
David and his brother came to WordPress in an interesting way, actually from working primarily with ColdFusion a few years ago to working almost exclusively with WordPress now.
The full interview is after the jump, don't miss it!
There is no question that WordPress jobs are huge nowadays. Recently self-proclaimed WordPress fanatic Jerome Degl'innocenti launched WPHired, a new WordPress jobs board. He put it together during his spare time, and hopes it will help those interested in finding new WordPress opportunities.
In this interview we talk about why he decided to build it, how he did, and what he is looking to do in the future. Oh, and you get to hear me butcher another name. So good for you.
Full interview is after the jump.
So there's Ptah Dunbar. I feel like every WordCamp I see him at (and this makes two) I end up saying: "It's not fair. You can either really know your code, or be really slick. You can't be both, it's just not fair." Ptah actually wrote a couple of posts here back in the earliest of early days at WPCandy, so clearly his is very, very cool.
Today Ptah is developing the WP Framework theme, consulting full time, and cooking up some fun collaborative stuff over at DevPress with Justin Tadlock, Tung Do (Small Potato) and Patrick Daly. In the interview we talk about all of these things a little bit, as well as what he would like to see out of WordPress in the future.
The interview is after the jump.
This year at WordCamp Phoenix was also the first time I met Dre Armeda (I've been saying that a lot lately, haven't it?). Dre runs Sucuri Security and CubicTwo; the first is a malware scanning and removal company and the second is a WordPress development shop. You can safely add Dre to the list of WordPress folk that's very busy, working on a lot of awesome things.
Wait, what am I saying? The lazy guy should totally start a few more companies.
Interview is after the jump.
I enjoyed meeting Jeff Milone and David Morgan this weekend at WordCamp Phoenix. They started both Organic Themes and Kahuna Host, and live in Hawaii. Talk about the life, right?
We talked about their theme work, how they each came to WordPress, and a bit about what they do for fun in Hawaii. Check out the quick interview just after the jump.

We tend to think from our own experience outward, which means we can assume others are just like us. How would you encourage someone to understand your culture and what it is like to see through your eyes?
Stereotypes are significant. People often assume much about Aboriginal people immediately, such as: uneducated, don't care for themselves, bludgers, druggies, alcoholics, etc. It is not that these descriptions aren't accurate of some Aboriginal people (just as they are of non-Aboriginal people!), but they are unfair assumptions. In churches, if I walk into a non-Aboriginal congregation, people generally assume these stereotypes. If they are generous, they might only assume that I am likely not a Christian, or if I am then I am likely a charismatic or a mystic.
It is also important to know that we have a great awareness of human mortality. Death is something that is common for us. But, because of many problems, it is rare to see death at a "natural" time or in a "natural" way among our people.
How can we show respect to Aboriginal people, especially our Christian brothers and sisters?
Listen to them. Show them that you sincerely care, and do this by getting beyond the superficial. Don't approach them in a way that just "shows respect to the black man", but honour them as a fellow human being, and in Christian community as a brother/sister in Christ. After you have established a relationship, it is a very good thing to ask someone to tell you their story. But relationships are crucial. Some people, especially those of the stolen generation, have difficult stories to tell. So, their stories must be told within the confines of trusting relationships.
Are prayers honouring custodianship of the land helpful or hurtful?
In principle they aren't bad, but they can often seem tokenistic because they aren't backed by a broader conversation showing real care and respect.
Why do you think the conversation isn't happening? As a foreigner to Australia, I suspect the apathy is due to fear of inability to reach an agreement.
I am sure there is some fear about what would be the "right" outcome from the conversation, but what is important is to have the conversation. We don't talk about it.
As an example, it is very important for non-indigenous Australians to recognise that land is crucial to Aboriginal identity. Being removed from our land has had significant consequences for our sense of who we are. As for fear, at the end of the day it is okay for us to be different and to disagree. We just want to be cared for by being heard. At the moment, we aren't having the conversation.
As we begin the conversation, black people will need to let go of some things. But white people (and other colours) will need to think about changing some things, too – perhaps even just their attitudes. As we converse as Christians, we will need to think through what it means to be one "new man" in Christ.
What would be a good forum for these conversations?
Church leaders can model this, and they can do so by seeking out elders in nearby communities.
How can we think about mission among Aboriginal people today, especially in view of a difficult history?
Building relationships is crucial and much more effective than drop-in, short-term initiatives. You need to get to know the people you want to reach and show them you genuinely care about them as human beings. It is also good to talk with Aboriginal leaders and ask them ways that you might effectively serve with them.
Historically, the problem has been paternalism; that is, people have not allowed ministry to suit the cultural context that they are serving in, but have demanded that Aboriginals join their culture. This has, of course, had roots in very poor and misguided understandings of the true humanity of Aboriginals. As people have repented of this, the pendulum has swung too far in the other direction, leaving white churches to simply send money (at best) but have no genuine partnership.
What we need is true gospel partnership; one that is grounded in a common love for Christ and an appreciation for our common identity in him. So, when we do mission, we must work together, in real and sincere partnerships.
You are moving into a ministry position next year, and are pursuing a role as an Anglican minister. Why are you doing this?
Theologically I affirm Anglican doctrine. With this, my theology convicts me that the Anglican Church needs Aboriginal people in it. This does not mean that we become acultural, but the gospel is the uniting principle in our fellowship.
In terms of mission, the church needs black and white people to work together. So, I am working cross-culturally, in one sense, in order to see people reached for Christ. I want to do my part in giving expression to true gospel partnership.
The Aboriginal church needs the white church. We don't have the resources to be able to carry out gospel ministry like others do.
We have a lot of work to do in seeing the gospel bridge the racial divide in our country. I want to help show forth healthy mission that is truly gospel driven. I think this starts in the local church.
Being a part of the Anglican Church gives me access, resources and accountability for gospel mission.


The scar tissue grabs the connective tissue and the surrounding muscles, wrapping it all up together into a three dimensional blob. It happens because your body is trying to protect the injury and anchor it somehow, so you don't injure it again. That's a good thing, of course, but once you heal not all of it goes away. The problem is some of the fibrosis sticks around. (Pun intended.) how to build a boat engine Scar tissue is a bit different than an active scar. When people refer to scar tissue they often are talking about the scarring or densification of the fascial /connective structures underneath the skin not visible to the eye like a scar is.
Transcript. Deep tissue massage, most people don't know this, but actually deep tissue massage can decrease scar tissue, and in fact it can decrease the chance of scar tissue forming before it does.
The only thing I'm doing for my hamstring is trying to figure out how to break down the scar tissue. I've tried flossing with band and voodoo floss, but that made it worse. The "monkey bars of death" seems to have made it slightly better, or at least not worse.

Former wrestling students at Ohio State University have filed two separate class-action lawsuits alleging the university ignored allegations of sexual abuse against them.
The first lawsuit, filed by four "John Does" and wrestling team members, allege that the team doctor, Dr. Richard Strauss, "sexually assaulted, battered, molested, and/or harassed," them during medical exams performed from the late 1980s through the 1990s. Strauss committed suicide in 2005.
In a previous interview with CNN, Hellickson said he told Strauss that the wrestlers were uncomfortable showering with the doctor.

Streets of Rage 4 hands-on preview at PAX South 2020
We got a chance to check out Dotemu's latest build of Streets of Rage 4, including newly returning original Bare Knuckle boxing character, Adam Hunter.
To say the developing journey of Streets of Rage 4 has been impressive is an understatement. The game's polished animations and great characters promise a wealth of beat'em-up action that will be a go-to for many players, fan of the series or not, for a good long time, and the offering is only getting better with the latest addition to the playable roster of original Streets of Rage character and father of guitar-shredding Cherry Hunter and brother young Skate Hunter, Adam Hunter.
At PAX South 2020, I caught up to the folks at Dotemu to take Adam for a spin. The demo took us to a city level ending in a fight with iconic Streets of Rage baddie Shiva that players might remember from the Cherry Hunter reveal in August 2019. However, Adam was the big addition here for PAX South 2020, having only been revealed a few weeks before in December 2019.
Adam's Streets of Rage 4 stick and move
As fans of the series might remember, Adam Hunter is an ex-professional boxer turned cop in the Streets of Rage universe. With that in mind, Dotemu, Guard Crush, and Lizard Cube poured an immense amount of Adam's original sensibilities and story into his new stoic design.
From the get-go, Adam is set apart from the other characters in that he doesn't have a full-on run. Instead, he has a quick step when you double tap in either direction that moves him forward a short distance. What's interesting about this is that when Adam quick steps through an enemy, he will change direction to face their back. Immediately, I saw opportunity during our play with him to maneuver away from enemy attacks and continue my barrage of punches against foes.
Adam has a lot of unique things about his playstyle in Streets of Rage 4. His hard gut punch will no doubt be a meaty combo ender to much of his offense.
Adam was always the heavy hitter of the original Streets of Rage line-up and that feels true here too. Where Axel is balanced and Blaze and Cherry have some technique and mobility, Adam feels like a brick wall running into foes when he lands some of his bigger attacks. He has a quickstepping gut punch that will rock the heck out of enemies and his super move looks and feels straight-up like an adaptation of Terry Bogard's Power Geyser from King of Fighters and Fatal Fury. Adam brings an overall meatiness to the Streets of Rage 4 roster that feels like it may have been missing among the other three characters.
What's more, Adam drives home something that has really risen to the surface in the Streets of Rage 4 characters since it was announced back in August 2018, and that's just how different they feel from one another. It's far more than just a cosmetic look. Adam's quick step and hefty punches are distinctly different from locking foes down in Axel's barrage of fiery fists or Blaze's bouncing foes off walls with energy blows and kicks. These characters are coming into their own the more we see them. Their gameplay feels distinct, like picking from your favorite main in a fighting game roster. Adam feels distinctly like a prime example of just how far Dotemu and crew are willing to go with their playable character variety.
A fifth challenger in Streets of Rage 4?
We still don't have a confirmed launch date on Streets of Rage 4. We just know that the game will be coming in 2020 for PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch. That said, there's plenty to look forward to from Streets of Rage 4. We did learn from Dotemu that we can expect another playable character beyond Axel, Blaze, Cherry, and Adam, bringing the total starting playable roster up to five characters before Streets of Rage 4's launch. With that being the case, we'll be keeping a close eye on all comms to see who rounds out Streets of Rage 4's fighters and what the fifth fighter brings to the table.
For more on Streets of Rage 4, be sure to check out the game's website, or follow Dotemu, Lizardcube, and Gaurd Crush Games on Twitter. Be sure to stay tuned to Shacknews for the latest on Streets of Rage 4, and let us know in the Chatty comment section below what you think of Adam Hunter.

TJ Denzer posted a new article, Streets of Rage 4 hands-on preview at PAX South 2020


The Rochester Police department has an extensive heritage with a service record dating back to 1878 when the village's law enforcement officers were formally known as constables. Beginning in 1915 the term marshal was used for law officers, and sometime after 1966, and ever since, the term police officer has been used for those holding this position.
We take the time to identify these individuals who have served and are currently serving as Rochester Officers. The department we have today is directly attributable to those individuals who have helped build it up over the years to where we are today. Those Officers whose names are in bold have over 20 years service with this department. We stand where we are because we stand on the shoulders of those who came before us.
A Plaque with the names and dates of service of each of these officers is proudly displayed in the entry way of our department.
A review of the minutes of the Village board meetings and Police Department records revealed the following individuals as having served in the capacity as law enforcement officers with the Village of Rochester.

«Книжный вестник» — критико-библиографический и книготорговый журнал, выходивший в Петербурге в 1860—1867 годах. Периодичность — 2 раза в месяц. Публикации — материалы по книжному делу, списки выпущенных книг, рецензии на новые книги и т. д.

История
Журнал «Книжный вестник» был основан в 1860 году Ю. М. Богушевичем. В разные годы редакторами были Н. А. Сеньковский, Н. С. Курочкин. Первый номер вышел в апреле 1860 года.

Богушевич видел основную цель издания в том, чтобы дать возможность «узнать точно, что появилось нового в отечественной литературе по интересующему его (читателя) предмету, что даже уже совершено литературою и что еще предстоит совершить».

На страницах «Книжного вестника» публиковалась текущая библиографическая регистрация, печатались списки вышедших книг на русском языке и языке народов России (книги, выходящие на иностранных языках, учитывались лишь в нескольких номерах). Первые номерах помимо перечня книг содержали аннотации и рецензии, число которых впоследствии значительно сократилось, обзоры периодических изданий, литературную критику. Кроме этого, журнал содержал списки книготорговцев, типографий и библиотек Санкт-Петербурга и Москвы, а также статьи, посвящённые развитию библиотечного дела, наполнению библиотечных фондов.

Журнал содержал три раздела: «Библиография», «Критика» и «Смесь» (содержал новости, вопросы и письма читателей). Последние два выходили нерегулярно.

Из письма И. С. Тургенева Ф. М. Достоевскому 26 декабря 1861 г. — 7 января 1862 г. Париж:

Любезнейший Фёдор Михайлович, Ваше письмо меня очень удивило. — Вы как будто вычитали из моего письма, что я приписывал Вам распространение слуха о моей повести — а мне это и в голову не приходило — как же мог подобный намек попасть в мое письмо? — И как будто нужно искать особого объяснения всякой сплетне: — она царствует в нашей литературе, преимущественно на задних дворах, где издаются «Книжные Вестники» и т. д.

Программа «Книжного вестника»
 «Книжный вестник» заключает в себе три отдела: библиографию, критику, смесь.
 В первом отделе перечислять систематически, по предметам наук, все выходящие в России книги и брошюры по библиографической части с кратким, сжатым изложением содержания их. Из книг, изданных в России на иностранных языках, упоминать только замечательнейшие. То же самое соблюдать и в отношении журнальных статей. Впрочем, редакция будет в этом случае сообразовываться со своими средствами. В первом же отделе указывать журнальные критические статьи о вышедших книгах, с обозначением их содержания.
 Во втором отделе помещать критические статьи, заключающие в себе разборы и отзывы о тех произведениях литературы, которые заслуживают особенного внимания по своему отношению к науке или жизни. Статьи этого отдела составлять преимущественно на основании мнений, уже высказанных печатью, представляя из них общий вывод — конечно настолько, насколько мнения эти будут беспристрастны и согласны с истиной; такого рода статьи, впрочем не должны исключать статей самостоятельных.
 В состав третьего отдела войдут различные заметки и сведения, касающиеся книжно-литературного движения: о деятельности и характере различных наших журналов, о новых литературных предприятиях, о библиотеках, о типографиях и т. п.
Кроме того, не бесполезно будет дать место в журнале объявлениям от авторов, издателей, типографщиков и тому подобных лиц, по делу книжно-литературному.
 Из вышеприведённых трёх отделов только первый должен непременно заключаться в каждом номере издания, помещение же остальных будет зависеть от усмотрения редакции.
 «Книжный вестник» будет выходить 2 раза в месяц 15 и 30 числа, то есть в год выйдет 24 номера in quarto. Подписка принимается на год, полгода и четверть года на общих правилах,
 Так как наперёд нельзя определить с точностью будущего количественного и качественного богатства нашей литературы, а редакция не должна прибегать к какой-либо натяжке для дополнения или округления нумеров, то подписная цена изданию назначается не за годовой период, а за 24 листа, который может выйти в свет период более короткий или более долгий, чем один год, и составить менее или более 24 номеров, смотря по обстоятельству, упомянутому перед сим. За 24 листа цена назначается: без пересылки более 2 р. 45 к., с пересылкою — 3 р. При благоприятных для издания обстоятельствах цена может быть понижена.
 Для желающих иметь только 1-й отдел «Книжного вестника», заключающего в себе более общие краткие и полные (по количеству) сведения о вышедших книгах, — открыть подписку на один этот отдел, по той же цене за то же количество листов; для таких подписчиков этот отдел и печатать отдельно

This paper evaluates hedge fund performance through portfolio strategies that incorporate predictability based on macroeconomic variables. Incorporating predictability substantially improves out-of-sample performance for the entire universe of hedge funds as well as for various investment styles. While we also allow for predictability in fund risk loadings and benchmark returns, the major source of investment profitability is predictability in managerial skills. In particular, long-only strategies that incorporate predictability in managerial skills outperform their Fung and Hsieh (2004) benchmarks by over 17 percent per year. The economic value of predictability obtains for different rebalancing horizons and alternative benchmark models. It is also robust to adjustments for backfill bias, incubation bias, illiquidity, fund termination, and style composition.

2020, COVID-19
Conservative Psychology Favors Vote-By-Mail
by Tyler Deaton
A small but vocal group of Republicans continues to oppose voting by mail on the grounds that it's somehow bad for the GOP. As a Republican operative myself, I hope they will soon realize their assumption is dead wrong.
Generally speaking, voting by mail has proven to have no partisan impact on election outcomes. But in a pandemic — when a single cough can infect dozens of people — it might be more likely to help Republicans. The reason: disgust.
Disgust is a powerful emotion, and conservatives tend to feel it more than liberals. Numerous studies have shown a correlation between conservative political preferences and greater sensitivity to disgust. When presented with a disgusting image or scenario, conservatives' reactions are generally stronger and more negative than liberals'. This differential could have an effect in the 2020 election, as conservative voters confront the disgusting possibility of voting in person during a pandemic.
A lot of them just won't do it. Not if the virus persists. The shared booths, shared pens, shared voting machines, shared air — it's all just too gross. Conservatives will experience great sensitivity to these disgusting conditions, potentially causing more Republicans to stay home than Democrats.
This prediction is consistent with the studies. In one review, researchers found that conservatives were more concerned with "avoiding contamination." The study asked people to rate their disgust with scenarios like, "You take a sip of soda, and then realize that you drank from the glass that an acquaintance of yours had been drinking from." Another prompt asked people to rate their agreement with: "'I never let any part of my body touch the toilet seat in a public washroom." Results showed that desire to avoid contamination was strongly associated with political conservatism.
Many of the disgust studies have specifically looked at cleanliness and fear of disease. One found that politically conservative undergrads had cleaner, tidier rooms with more cleaning supplies on hand. This behavior relates to the origins of disgust, which some social psychologists believe evolved from a desire to protect ourselves from dangerous pathogens. We are the descendants of those who survived the previous plagues.
How might conservatives' concern with cleanliness and "avoiding contamination" impact GOP turnout in 2020? If people can vote by mail from the safety of their homes, it won't hurt turnout at all. But if a few misguided Republicans succeed in making it harder to vote by mail, expect a net decrease in ballots for Trump.
Will fear of the virus cause some Biden supporters to stay home? Sure. But on balance, the disease has more potential to suppress Republican votes. Not only are conservatives more likely to be personally disgusted by the germs, Republican voters are also on average older and therefore more at risk from COVID-19 and more likely to be subject to shelter-in-place orders.
It might seem odd that so many "conservatives" are protesting in the streets right now if they're more prone to disgust. But their whole message is that they don't believe in the virus. They think it's fake news. Trump told them so for weeks, and it's clearly proven impossible to un-ring that bell while China, Russia, and others are busy stoking conspiracies on social media.
While Trump finally changed his tune in press briefings mid-March, his Twitter feed has remained more than a little conspiratorial, urging people to "liberate" themselves from lockdowns in a few states (which all just happened to be Democrat-tilted battlegrounds key to the Electoral College).
Keep in mind that the lockdown protesters are a small fraction of Republicans voters. They generate more media than the conservatives quietly staying home. For every protester screaming in the face of a healthcare worker, there are thousands of Republicans, including my southern Trump-supporting family members, who absolutely will not visit a voting booth during a pandemic any more than they'll be booking a trip to Wuhan.
If Republicans endorse vote-by-mail and expanded absentee voting, they'll be doing the right thing. And they might just see a shift in their favor because of conservative psychology. The problem for Republicans currently is that they're blocking their most favorable voters by requiring in-person voting at a shrinking number of voting locations with longer lines. Before we predict how people might vote, we first have to consider whether they will choose to vote at all.
Wise up, fellow Republicans. If you insist on viewing the issue of ballot access through the cynical lens of partisan advantage, then you should support vote-by-mail. Republicans have never faced an election where voting is disgusting. We need to make it easy for people to vote from their safe, clean, sanitized homes. Otherwise, it's likely fewer Republican voters will cast ballots this fall.

AfDB President Wants Africa to Invest U.S.$1.8 Trillion on Infrastructure
Africa's $1.8trillion pension and sovereign wealth assets should be used to develop infrastructure in the continent, the President of the African Development Bank (AfDB), Dr Akinwunmi Adesina, has said.
Dr Adesina, who spoke with State House correspondents yesterday at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, after a meeting with Muhammadu Buhari, added that such investment would bridge the current infrastructure gap.
He said: "Today, Africa has an infrastructure gap of about roughly $68bn to $108bn infrastructure financing gap. At the AfDB, we have been working so hard to close that particular gap.
"When it comes to the issue of attracting capital to do that, there are three things that I will say; first, we have to also look at home. Today, in Africa, the size of the sovereign wealth fund and pension fund and insurance pull of fund (mutual funds) is about $1.8tn.
"If we can just tap a little part of that, we will close very quickly the infrastructure gap that we are talking about. But, you see a lot of sovereign investment funds being invested in other sovereigns outside the continent.
"So, they become the sovereign wealth of others and then you go back and borrow back your own money; it doesn't really make a lot of sense. I say that charity always begins at home."
Dr Adesina, who said the AfDB stakeholders had strengthened the bank with $115bn to further support the development of the continent, described the proposed single currency for the Economic Community of West Africa sub-region, the Eco, as a good development.
He said a unified currency for the sub-region would place the West African countries on a higher pedestal to compete with the rest of Africa in view of the African Continental Free Trade Area Agreement (AfCFTA).
"At the end of the day, the biggest thing to happen to Africa is the AfCFTA. That free trade area itself is worth over $3.3tn in terms of trade. Obviously, it's not optimum to trade in so many currencies.
"So, it makes common sense to have a unified currency and of course for that to even be achieved, the Eco; I support Eco greatly. I think it's a great idea to do.
"But, obviously, there are a number of convergence criteria that will have to be met and I am sure that our President is talking with other presidents to be sure that they can meet those criteria and the region can be fully integrated," he said.

How are "non-princely" titles assigned to British royals?
For instance, Prince William is also "Duke of Cambridge."
His grandfather, Prince Philip is Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Marioneth, and Baron Greenwich, among others.
How do they come by these non-royal titles and why? They're all "lesser" than "Prince."
united-kingdom monarchy
owjburnham
According to Wikipedia, Royal Dukedoms, like those you list, are not "non-royal". Royal Dukedoms outrank non-royal Dukedoms. The British Monarch is the fount of honour and grants titles of honour by issuing letters patent. The process seems motivated by tradition and the desire to slot people into an appropriate place in the order of precedence.
– RedGrittyBrick
@RedGrittyBrick: That explains the Dukedoms, but do you have an answer for Earl of Marioneth or Baron of Greenwich?
The other titles are subsidiary titles. I don't know why the Queen created them for him. I wonder if it was because he had given up rights to the Greek and Danish thrones on becoming a British subject - so he lost several titles, the Queen may have wished to grant him a similar set of honours - but this is just speculation.
@RedGrittyBrick At the time, it was George VI who was the monarch, not the Queen.
– Azor Ahai -him-
@Azor-Ahai: I asked this (your) question on Politics because I thought it would do better here than on history. If you would like to ask your version of this question, I would "stand down" in your favor by removing my question.
Royal dukedoms are personal gifts of the British monarch, and traditionally assigned to family members. The titles are not necessarily passed on to the holder's offspring; they may become vacant when the holder dies or accedes to a more senior title.
Some titles, such as Duke of Cambridge, are almost entirely honorific.
Others come with significant lands and revenues. Prince Charles is Duke of Cornwall; this title comes with 570 km^2 of land, generating an income of £19 million per annum. When the title is vacant, this revenue is collected by the monarch.
Having the lands and responsibilities of a dukedom is considered a mark of adulthood. In times past, it would have helped train the holder for other royal duties and perhaps eventually becoming King; and hopefully ensured that the reigning monarch had a reliable manager for a portion of the royal lands. The custom of awarding dukedoms to younger royals is to some extent a relic of this practice.
Prior to House of Lords reform in 1999, a royal dukedom entitled the holder to a seat in the upper house of the British Parliament, although in modern times members of the royal family seldom voted or attended debates. After the 1999 reforms, royal dukes no longer have seats in the Lords.
Finally, the awarding of titles can symbolise the commitment of the royal family to all parts of the UK. The Duke of Cambridge was until recently a pilot at an air rescue service based in Cambridge; the Duke of Edinburgh has maintained some other ties to the city, for instance serving for many years as Chancellor of Edinburgh University.
Royal Canadian BanditRoyal Canadian Bandit
Titles can be passed onto sons.
Such titles are in the gift of the Monarch. There is a tradition of awarding a title, usually a Dukedom upon the younger sons of the monarch when they marry. These titles can then be passed down to their children. So Prince Edward, who is also Earl of Wessex, can pass his title on to his son, who is currently styled Viscount Severn. If he hadn't been given the Earldom, his son would not have had a title.
The bestowing of several titles on, for example, Prince Phillip, is part of the system. It looks pretty silly from the outside, but I'm told that members of the aristocracy take it seriously, and it would have been considered an insult for him to have received less.
Not necessarily so. The royal dukedoms (Edinburgh, York, Cambridge) become vacant upon the death of the holder.
@RoyalCanadianBandit Do you have a source for that? I'd understood that of the three you listed, Edinburgh and Cambridge were likely to revert to the crown once Prince Charles/William ascends to the thrown, while Prince Andrew has only daughters.
– origimbo
I was mistaken about York, it could be inherited (but won't be, unless Prince Andrew remarries and has a son). But Cornwall, for example, would become vacant if Charles became King. AIUI if the Queen dies before Prince Philip, he would continue as Duke of Edinburgh until his own death, but the title would not pass to Charles or William.
Cornwall is a special case and has been for centuries, being a relic of a feudal system otherwise abolished. Supposedly, HM Queen Elizabeth wants Prince Edward to be created Edinburgh after Philip dies and the title reverts to the Crown. However, I've never seen any evidence that it doesn't devolve on heirs male otherwise. The normal succession would be Philip -> Charles -> William... and Charles on by becoming King, the title would cease to exist (merge with Crown)

All you need is to calculate the height of Document and set that height to a container making its position relative and the secondary menu position absolute with top 50%

A: To have element in the center of page, make it absolute (or static if You want it to stay in center even when scrolling) and position it vertically in center:
#block{
   position: absolute;
   width: 100%;
   left: 0;
   height: 50px; //example
   top: 50%;
   margin-top: -25px; //half of height
}

Then You can put the menu inside that #block.

Reactions: CardsSunsDbacks and Absolute Zero
Over the last 5 games
Booker 33.6 ppg 5.4 apg
Ayton 23.6 ppg 15.2 rpg
Reactions: Absolute Zero and Ouchie-Z-Clown
Lots of talk about DA hitting the weight room big time. I am wondering if part of this transformation is a renewed commitment to strength training. He was actually pretty big in college, but then seemed to thin down a little his first couple years in the league. Maybe playing so many more games made it harder for him to keep the mass on, or maybe there was something more to his early suspension than just a mistake.
If he adds lean bulk, he will be a better player for us and it will significantly add to his confidence.
Don't look now, but Book is now averaging 29 ppg, 5.8 assists, and 5.3 rebounds. He makes three extra threes so far this season and he is flirting with 50-40-90 efficiency. All that while being double and triple-teamed constantly and not yet getting superstar treatment from the refs.
And he is playing quality D. A non-suns fan poster on the realgm gd said that his play is starting to approach prime Kawhi territory.
The fact he's shooting that well without CP3's helps is something else. I'd imagine his shooting percentages increase if anything when Paul returns.
It seemed curious the Bulls didn't double-team Booker more. Of course, Ayton made that more difficult.
The bulls really looked to me like a team that was just going through the motions.
That team without DeRozan would be by far the worst team in the league, which is why I don't think they will trade him - unless they are going to go full on tank.
I really liked that addition when we signed him. I figured he'd give us someone at the end of the bench who could actually play a few minutes if we were shorthanded. He's turned out to be so much more than an end of the bench addition.
Reactions: CardsSunsDbacks and Ronin
Reactions: Hoop Head
It didn't help the Suns were the last game on a four game road trip.
The Bulls are waiting on Lonzo Ball to return. Their record with him last year was one of the best in the East but without him they're a 500 team. I guess they could be sellers come the deadline if there isn't enough time to salvage the season but who knows. They owe picks to Orlando as part of the Vucevic trade so they might be interested in some picks and clearing salary.
That's always been the case but now everyone's starting to realize it. I love CP3. He's a hall of fame point guard. Arguably top 5 all time at his position.
But this has and always will be Devin Booker's team. He draws so much attention with his threat to score that it opens up other guys. And he's not just a scorer. He's ruthless and willing to do whatever it takes to win.
What's tough is the Suns won't get respect until the playoffs where we have a chance to prove game 7 was a fluke. That was embarrassing especially with the whole "Luka special". I don't blame Book. We didn't lose that series because of him but Luka schooled our entire team.

Myanmar military-linked pages and accounts removed from Facebook
Facebook scrambles to respond to criticism amid hate speech
YANGON: Myanmar youths browse their Facebook page at an internet shop in Yangon. Facebook has removed hundreds of additional pages and accounts in Myanmar with hidden links to the military, the platform said yesterday, as the company scrambles to respond to criticism over failures to control hate speech and misinformation. – AFP
YANGON: Facebook has removed hundreds of pages and accounts in Myanmar with hidden links to the military, the platform said yesterday, as the company scrambles to respond to criticism over failures to control hate speech and misinformation. The social media giant -Myanmar's most popular and influential site – has been lambasted for years for its ineffective response to malicious posts, particularly against the country's Rohingya Muslims. The problem reached new levels of urgency last year as Myanmar's military drove more than 720,000 Rohingya into Bangladesh, while dehumanising material about the stateless group spread on the site.
Facebook said yesterday some 425 pages, 17 groups, 135 accounts and 15 Instagram accounts had been removed, which were posing as independent news, entertainment, beauty and lifestyle pages but in reality had links to the military or to pages previously removed. This is Facebook's third sweeping takedown of pages and accounts for what it calls "coordinated inauthentic behavior" in Myanmar following deletions in October and August. Hardline nationalist monks and even the army's top generals, accused by UN investigators of genocide, are among the users Facebook blacklisted this year.
Facebook said in a newsroom post that it does not want people or organizations "creating networks of accounts to mislead others about who they are, or what they're doing," adding that one page had 2.5 million followers. Some of the deleted pages were called "Down for Anything", "Let's Laugh Casually", and "We Love Myanmar". Facebook has been trying to repair its battered reputation, improving the speed with which hate speech is taken down and vowing to beef up its Myanmar-language reviewers on staff to 100 by the end of 2018. But critics say this is not enough to oversee some 20 million Facebook accounts in the country, many in a patchwork of regional languages.
An independent report commissioned by Facebook concluded last month that the state was ultimately responsible for rights abuses, but the company should have done more to prevent the platform from being used to foment division and incite offline violence. It also warned that Myanmar's 2020 election will likely be a flashpoint for abuse and misinformation. Most people in Myanmar only came online in the last few years, when smartphone usage soared as the country opened up to the outside world after decades of isolated military rule. Civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi's government – which is in an uneasy power-sharing agreement with the military – has come under fire for not doing more to stand up for the Rohingya.- AFP
