Bad Jokes and Slapping People
In a civil, polite society we shouldn't run around slapping comedians, politicians, radio or television personalities, or musical performers. The list goes on and includes everyone. Will Smith's stunt of slapping comedian Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars was a bad idea. It was only by the grace of God and mainly the grace of Chris Rock that Smith was not arrested or sued. Before this is all over, Rock could still take him to court. At this point in time, it doesn't seem likely.
On the other hand, it was a bad idea for Chris Rock to use Will Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, in a joke that highlighted alopecia, the disease that has been tormenting her. Diseases and disabilities are issues with which people struggle. The joke angered Will Smith. His feelings got totally out of control as he bounded on stage to slap Chris Rock. While many people understand how Smith must have felt and may have thought Rock deserved it, we still have to restrain ourselves.
I suspect there are people who probably have wanted to slap a politician or two. You can't do that because you would go to jail. Furthermore, that is the wrong way to conduct our behavior. What about Vladimir Putin? You couldn't get by with that in Russia. Regardless of how evil and heinous an individual is, if you slapped him while walking down Broadway in New York City, a policeman would most likely arrest you. This is a far-fetched scenario even though most of the free world is ready for Putin to be totally removed.
If you have been working on your list of people to slap, you might as well put it away. It won't work. You will eventually end up in jail, in court, or both.
We do have free speech in America. People can hurl words freer than hurling punches. Words can and do hurt. There are repercussions if you slander, malign or use your speech against others in a way that "hurts" them. However, television, radio, and political events frequently allow the rhetoric to go way out of bounds.
An idea for us all is to control our tongues and our actions. Most of us have spoken before we thought. We may have reacted in a way without seriously considering the action. Too often a fast mouth or quick action may have brought regret.
There are lessons to be learned from this year's Academy Awards. Mainly, don't act like those people.

About Q.
Notes on the Oneida Community Mansion
John Humphrey Noyes
John Humphrey Noyes (September 4, 1811- April 13, 1886) founded the Perfectionist community, The Oneida Community (1848-1881) in the Oneida Community Mansion in Oneida, NY. I have been a big fan of Noyes and the sheer American-ness of this community which was part of the marvel of NY State's burned out zone. Wikipedia briefly sums up the overview of their views:
"The Oneida community's utopian philosophy focused on the individual relationship to God; it was intended to be a sort of "kingdom of God on earth." The second focus of the community was sexual morality."
This community was peopled by individuals who gave up all possessions and wealth to the community (included the treasures found in the cases around the mansion)--and gave in to the community in it's entirety. From this shared wealth came shared pleasures including their lovely house, their work in creating carpet bags (as in "Carpet baggers"), seeds, animal traps, silk thread and the most lasting, the Oneida Silversmiths. I could quote a bunch of stuff that I have read, but will leave that to you--but to mention several interesting observations. The Oneida Community did things right. They had designers on the team, and hired some of the biggest talent of the time for Community Plate Silverware (another name they marketed under). They hired Maxfield Parrish and Coles Phillips for illustration for their earlier ads. They were heavily engaged in the war effort--which also manifested itself in some great illustration work for their ads....Who would have guessed.
Coles Phillips for Community Plate
The Community Mansion still stands in gorgeous condition--with a few rooms available as a bed and breakfast as well as over 50 people rent apartments in their 93,000 square foot building (some being descendants of the original community members). This massive, beautifully maintained building sits perched on a huge piece of property that adjoined the former factory. Smart planning by the Community business people, set up the town of Sherrill and guaranteeing it's life independent of the group. It is a testament to a moment in time, a moment of interesting thought made real, and a group that had impact on upstate New York and truly, American culture. So worth a visit and a tour.
Without Sin: The Life and Death of the Oneida Community
pencer Klaw
From Kirkus Reviews:
"Disturbing tale of a 19th-century utopian community. Klaw (The Great American Medicine Show, 1975, etc.) wrote this with the cooperation of descendants of the Oneida Community, who granted him access to unpublished memoirs and letters. The result is a thorough if somewhat blinkered look at a daring experiment in social and biological engineering, a sort of Victorian brave new world. Oneida was the brainchild of John Humphrey Noyes, a preacher and writer who believed himself to be God's chosen instrument. Like other utopians, Noyes taught the perfectibility of the human being; more controversially, he also condemned monogamy in favor of sexual libertinism. After some false starts--including an arrest on morals charges--Noyes put his theories to the test in 1848 by establishing his own Eden in Oneida, New York. At first, the community flourished. Inventions poured out, including the stainless-steel cutlery still manufactured today; members enjoyed courses in languages and science, as well as equality in food, clothing, and shelter. But too often Noyes's activities seemed a forerunner of China's cultural revolution. Romantic love and celibacy were banned; at 13 or 14, girls lost their virginity, usually to Noyes himself in sessions known as ``interviews.'' Privacy was nonexistent, and members were subjected to scathing public criticism of their every fault. Noyes ruled as absolute dictator, wielding power by manipulating sexual privileges. His social experiments reached their nadir with ``stirpiculture,'' an attempt to produce superior human beings (with Noyes blood involved, if possible) through breeding experiments. Predictably, the community's idealism faded rapidly, and, by the 1880's, Oneida was more or less defunct.

Blocked roadside drain causing rainwater to remain on road.
The drain is on the bend opposite the chil;drens playground, outside 43 Southern Road. The resulting water covers half the road and tempts drivers to cross to the wrong side of road on blind bend. Also, splashes cause damage to our garden wall. The problem has been there for a couple of months, caused by autumn leaves blocking the drain. It appeared to have improved but todays rain showed that the problem still exists.


KOLKATA: Police on Tuesday arrested two NRS Medical College and Hospital nursing students for the brutal killing of 16 puppies on the campus on Sunday, with investigators concluding it was a planned murder and not a spur-of-the-moment act. At least three others were also directly involved in the crime and were being questioned, officials added.
What has shocked some of the investigators, who have probed several murders and violent crimes in the course of their career, is the type of cooperation and planning that seem to have gone into the "mass murder" of the puppies and the possible involvement of many more hostel residents. The puppies and their mothers were lured into the nursing students' hostel's backyard and then corralled inside a compound, with all exits blocked, officials said. According to them, "only two persons would have found it impossible to do all this".
Cops arrested first-year nursing student Moutusi Mondal and Soma Burman, a year senior to Mondal, after several rounds of questioning, first on the hospital campus and then at the police station. Mondal is a resident of Bankur's Karakberia and Burman's family stays in Kakdwip. They will be produced at a Sealdah court on Wednesday.
"We have arrested the two women on the basis of the widely circulated video and after their identification by two security guards. They have confessed to the act and have also named some others who helped them. We are questioning them now," a senior Entally police station officer said. The cops have also seized the stick with which the pups were clubbed to death.
"It looks like some students and staff nurses had planned the murder. They lured the puppies from different corners of the hostel premises with biscuits and, once they were inside the hostel backyard, all exits were blocked as the two women went about their job for close to an hour. It was coldblooded murder," a senior hospital official said.
The arrests on Tuesday followed the interrogation of around 55 nursing students and staff by a three-member hospital probe committee. Most of them denied having been present at the hospital on Sunday in the face of evidence to the contrary.
The probe committee started the interrogation process around 10am on Tuesday with 15 senior staff nurses. "All these nurses lived on the ground floor but all of them tried to evade responsibility; some claimed they were sleeping, some said they were away and others said they were in the washroom. We then interrogated some student residents of the same wing and they, too, tried to protect the women seen in the video. Finally, a security personnel identified the two students who were seen in that 28-second clip," the official added.
Officials, who were intrigued by the reason for such extreme violence, got some "shocking" answers. "The pups would cling to our feet as we walked," was one answer. Another "crime" was the pups filching some pieces of clothing — left out to dry — and "using them as bedding in winter". "We were shocked by the reasons that were cited as possible causes for the massacre," an official said. "One nurse said there were cases of strays biting humans but no one could identify a victim," he added.
Hospital deputy superintendent Dwaipayan Biswas, who led the probe committee, said: "The cops will take necessary action but we are filing a strong report with the authorities, explaining the entire process of how the dogs were killed. Extremely strict action will be taken against the guilty." Another official said the "strict action" might include rustication.

What a lovely campsite and extreemly friendly thanks to caroline for our lovely pitch and your hospitality. We turned up late on our motorbike very tired , a friendly family even came over and offered us a full on picnic as we were too late to buy food! thanks so much there was a lovely atmosphere that evening with all nationalities happily playing boules, my only regret is we only staying one night.
If we are ever in thast area again i would definately return to this site.
Dena and glenn stayed 5/8/12.
This site is perfect for families. Our 4, 7 , 10 and 14yr olds absolutely love it here and they never want to leave at the end of the holiday. Our children had so much freedom to ride their bikes around the site and they are very safe. No busy roads, set on a quiet country lane. Highly recommend!
Caroline +2 Bernad's cannot do more for you. The site is very clean more than I can say for sites that have 4 stars and more. The garden is well looked after, members of staff walk around to collect any rubbish if there is any. It must be good as we would go back year after year for the last twenty odd years. If you are into camping give it a try, you'll be surprised.
Just got back home after a weeks stay on this camp site. Children did not want to leave as made so many friends here. A very safe, family friendly, clean and tidy establishment with welcoming staff who go above and beyond to ensure your stay is good. A mixture of French and English families who return here year after year and make newcomers more that welcome. We enjoyed it so much we booked our next years family holiday here before we left. Well recommended.
This was a dreadful campsite, we intended to stay for 10 days but left after 4. The noise from the on site disco was very annoying and went on well after the midnight curfew. The toilets were disgusting and a general air of neglect pervaded the site. I would not recommend this site.

Toms River rezoned property to block Lakewood developers, lawyer says
Township Council members said a decision to rezone more than 60 acres in North Dover was meant to reduce building in an area that's developed rapidly.

TOMS RIVER - Township Council members said they rezoned more than 60 acres of vacant land in North Dover to eliminate the potential for more high-density housing in an area where more than 1,400 housing units are already under construction.
But a local lawyer and real estate agent has a darker view.
Jesse Goldstein said Tuesday night that the council's real motive was to prevent Orthodox Jews from moving into the area. The rezoned land is located between Cox Cro and Whitesville roads, not far from the Lakewood border.
"It's not right. It's not legal. It's not moral," said real estate agent Jesse Goldstein, who lives in Toms River. "This is 'Toms River Strong' all over again."
TR POLICE: Toms River cops need your help finding this woman
SURF CLUB: Could Toms River buy Ortley Beach surf club property?
Signs proclaiming "Don't Sell! Toms River Strong," cropped up in North Dover about two years ago, urging neighborhood residents not to give in to real estate agents who residents said were pressuring them to sell their homes to Orthodox Jewish families eager to move to Toms River.
"Instead of 100 homes, you want 25, so you can keep 75 families out of Toms River," said lawyer Harvey L. York, who represents two clients who own about 50 of the 64 acres rezoned Tuesday. "Strangely enough, you are not doing it in any other part of town."
Development on the rezoned properties would be restricted to one house for each two acres, compared with one for every half-acre before the zone change.
A builder could still cluster homes on half-acre lots on a portion of the rezoned area, but only if 50 percent of the development is set aside as open space.
York said that his clients, the Hecht family and Jenette Lipschitz, will sue in an attempt to have the rezoning overturned.
York said the council's decision to rezone his clients' property has slashed the value of their land, which developers from Lakewood had planned to purchase.
The developers would have paid $5 million for each parcel, he said.

NUISANCE PROPERTIES: In Toms River, you could pay extra for raising hell
The Republican council majority called the rezoning a legal way "to tackle the problem of overdevelopment due to a sharp increase in the construction of high-density housing in the North Dover section of the township," in a prepared statement released to the media after the vote.
The rezoned land is between Whitesville and Cox Cro roads. (Photo: Google Maps)
GOP Council President Brian Kubiel, Vice President George E. Wittmann Jr. and council members Maria Maruca and Maurice B. "Mo" Hill Jr. and Republican Mayor Thomas F. Kelaher said GOP council members worked with Councilwoman Laurie Huryk, a Democrat, to produce the rezoning plan.

Huryk represents Ward 3, which includes the North Dover area where explosive development has angered residents, and became the issue that dominated last year's election campaign.
But Councilman Daniel Rodrick, a Democrat, said Wednesday that the rezoning was his suggestion. Rodrick and Councilman Terrance Turnbach, also a Democrat, were not mentioned in the GOP's press release about the rezoning.
See how development in North Dover has affected some mobile home park residents in the video above.
Democrats, who ran on an anti-development platform, captured three seats on the seven-member township council.
Following the election, both Democrats and Republicans on the council struggled to come up with strategies to curb building in North Dover.
But a building moratorium, first proposed by Wittmann, was likely not legal, and did not appear to have the support of a council majority.
Councilman Daniel Rodrick, a Democrat, then suggested the township ban all multifamily housing, a proposal Republicans said could lead to costly — and unwinnable — lawsuits against Toms River by affordable housing developers.
The rezoning ordinance "was the result of months of meetings and deliberation about how to serve all the residents of Toms River moving forward," the GOP council members said.
It is likely to be applauded by many residents of North Dover, who have frequently complained that overdevelopment has permanently altered the character of the formerly rural area.

"The ordinance is proof that a council split between Democrats and Republicans doesn't have to be at odds with itself all the time, and that if we work together, we can accomplish many more good things for the residents of our township," Maruca said in the statement.
York said that Toms River's master plan, which was revised last year, did not recommend changing the zoning on the Whitesville Road properties.
Township Planner David Roberts said the rezoning is supported by the master plan, which stresses the importance of open space conservation and the need to shift high-density development away from the North Dover area and toward downtown, which the township hopes to redevelop.

He said the Planning Board recommended the zoning be changed after reviewing the rezoning ordinance last week.
In a heated exchange with Councilman Hill, York said that the township had spent $1.5 million in 2015 to buy property near the Lakewood border where his client, Charles Silberburg, planned to build a 3,000-square-foot synagogue.
"This town has gone out of its way to stop development," York said. "It began by not allowing my client to build a synagogue off Locust Street."
"How did we stop him from building?" Hill asked, pointing out that Silberburg had sold the land to Toms River.
He said the township was not trying to stop construction of a synagogue, but instead wanted to buy the land to provide a buffer between some residences in Toms River and a multifamily housing development across the border in Lakewood.

In March, the U.S. Department of Justice informed the township that it had ended a nearly two-year investigation into whether there is religious bias in Toms River's zoning laws.
The investigation had focused on the township's zoning laws related to religious land uses, and was sparked by a Board of Adjustment decision to require the Chabad Jewish Center to obtain a use variance in order to continue operating at Rabbi Moshe Gourarie's Church Road home.
The Justice Department dropped the investigation after U.S. District Court Judge Freda L. Wolfson ruled in favor of the Gourarie, saying Toms River and the zoning board had violated numerous federal laws by requiring the rabbi to obtain the variance.

The one thing players want more other than another Star Fox game is an actual prequel sharing the origin story of Fox McCloud and co. It's still unknown whether the upcoming Wii U version will take the story in this direction. Rumors suggest it, but all signs point to a brand new narrative. Yet creating a mobile title that connects both storylines, along with bonus items and unlockable characters is a win-win on all levels. Adding an element of virtual reality into the mix for players to explore planets and interact with environments via gaming headsets would only heighten our expectations.

U Colorado Classroom Capture Supports Distance Learning for Military
By Linda L. Briggs
Soldiers in the United States military who want to take college courses while they're deployed overseas face some tough challenges. But they can also represent an attractive market for universities, especially those interesting in recruiting more business graduate school students to specific programs.
At the University of Colorado in Boulder, Senior Instructor Emeritus Gerald Mitchell has been using classroom capture technology to provide his remote military students with access to classes and content wherever and whenever they have the time. The program has allowed those students to keep up with classes by tailoring their course time, and thus their education, to the rigorous military schedules they face while deployed overseas.
Mitchell, who is the university's military liaison, has been recording all of his lectures for several years using Tegrity's class capture and playback program, now known as Tegrity Campus 2.0. The software arrangement allows any student in the masters-level interdisciplinary telecommunications program to view and listen to a class lecture later via the Internet. That's especially valuable to military graduate students--generally either captains or majors in the Army Signals Corps, Mitchell said--who may be deployed in locations anywhere in the world. The program, which requires that every student take an assortment of both technical and non-technical courses, results in either a master's of engineering or a master's of science in engineering degree.
With Tegrity, students on campus watch live in the classroom as Mitchell uses the system to record his lecture while he speaks, shows drawings and slides on the screen, and writes or draws on anything on the screen. It's all automatically recorded by Tegrity and posted automatically and almost immediately to the school's web site. Virtually any time later, students anywhere in the world can watch the same lecture online, complete with audio and video that includes markups made to the computer screen.
"I have military students who are located wherever their duty station is," Mitchell said, guessing that Germany is a likely location for many. With the class capture program in place, he pointed out, "the location doesn't make much difference."
Mitchell said he averages several military students per semester in the telecommunications program, and has taught "literally hundreds of military students in the last 20 years." He is currently planning a recruiting trip to military bases in an attempt to recruit more such students, whom he views as excellent assets to the university.
Mitchell, who can remember a time not so long ago when distance students were physically mailed a taped copy of a lecture, regards the Tegrity program as "just a more sophisticated way of doing things than in the past… I used to take a piece of paper and a marking pen, put it on the podium, write on it, and record that by camera [for the taped lecture]. We've graduated from there."
The key to attracting military students to a graduate program such as the one at UC, Mitchell said, is quality content, of course. What's also critical, he pointed out, is "a quality online learning program."
Earning a master's of engineering or a master's of science in engineering degree, he said, can be as big a plus for military students as civilian ones. "It enhances their career, it's a great learning program, and they learn something useful."

Health care was reportedly America's most profitable industry last year. Presumably, that makes doctors the national heroes among heroes. They must be the biggest contributors to the happiness and peace of mind of America as a whole.
The job of a physician is essentially to determine the state of an individual's health, as well as how they can improve it. Of course, to conclude what the situation really is, the physician must hear the story as told by the patient themselves. If the doctor seldom makes an effort to understand what the client is feeling, they may fail to come up with a solution that'll actually work.
When people are count solely on a doctor to help them make sense of their physical experiences, every detail counts. It's often akin to a large jigsaw puzzle; each individual piece has a unique role in shaping the overall picture.
If something is missed or ignored, there may still be some lingering issues after treatment. The power of something minor should not be underestimated, especially in the health care industry.
If someone's not legitimately passionate about what they're doing, others around them are bound to find out eventually. It's been said that many people, especially millennials, are very good at detecting dishonest interest. Their thinking is why would anyone give 110% to something they're not truly content doing? Why wouldn't they just go through the motions?

BUGATTI'S LA VOITURE NOIRE IS A $19 MILLION ODE TO THE GROTESQUELY RICH
bugatti's la voiture noire
March 5, 2019 in General News
The most expensive new car ever has already been sold
Disregard your bank (im)balance for a moment, and consider this proposition: Bugatti has designed a one-off, blacked-out car — built upon the Chiron drivetrain, and made out of carbon fiber and all the finest materials humanity has discovered — but it costs a whopping $18.9 million and you can't have it for another 2.5 years, because Bugatti has to figure out how to engineer and homologate the preposterous thing. Do you take up that offer?
Any car fanatic would calculate how many Ferraris, McLarens, and Lambos could be had for such a princely sum, and how much driving can be done in 30 months, and decline as quickly and politely as possible. But if you're a person more concerned with signaling their status or preserving their wealth, this $19 million Bugatti proposal is a no-brainer.
I talked to Bugatti design director Achim Anscheidt today while admiring a design model of his company's newly announced "La Voiture Noire." This vehicle will be a one-off — there'll only ever be one made — homage to the Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic. Designed by Jean Bugatti, eldest son of founder Ettore, the 57 Atlantic had an iconic all-black variant, which went missing during the Second World War, and that's what today's La Voiture Noire commemorates. Anscheidt tells me that once his design team finished with their work, the extremely limited-edition new car was bought by the first person it was offered to.
Because, why wouldn't you? Purchasing a one-off Bugatti, at any price, is like buying futures in the stock of multibillionaires of the future. If you believe there'll be more egregiously wealthy humans on the planet — whether in number or in amplitude of wealth — then it only makes sense to own extraordinarily exclusive items like this all-black Bugatti.
"IF YOU COMPARE IT TO THE ART MARKET, IT'S NOT SO OUTRAGEOUS."
Anscheidt isn't shy about the clientele that his company attracts, telling me that Bugatti has "a customer base that is used to configuring their yachts and their airplanes themselves," and, further, that "if you compare it to the art market, it's not so outrageous."
I'm still reeling from the matter-of-fact manner in which those words were uttered, along with the inescapable logic they contain. The $19 million Bugatti La Voiture Noire will have the exact inverse value curve of a regular car: it'll start to appreciate rather than depreciate the moment it's delivered, and after 20 or so years, it's likely to be an even more desired and exceptional art / status / wealth piece. Only a reckless fool would dare drive it.
Unsurprisingly, Bugatti's new hypercar debut is the most expensive new car ever built and sold. What might surprise you, though, is that its escalated price is thanks entirely to its fancier design and scarcity. Bugatti didn't make any performance enhancements relative to the Chiron, which is to say that the Bugatti Divo is still the best-performing vehicle that the brand offers. The Divo costs a comparably tame €5 million / $5.7 million, though that price is only of historic importance, as all 40 examples of it were sold to existing Chiron ownersimmediately upon announcement.
Before my conversation with Anscheidt concluded, he remarked that Bugatti is seeing a great response to all of its limited-run vehicles, and "there will be many more people who will want to have a one-off car made for themselves." I'm confident that there are indeed millions who'd very much like that privilege. And I suspect there'll be just enough who can afford Bugatti's absurd prices in order to keep this farcical market for ultra-luxuries going.

should tamil go running behind science?
Topic suggested by balaji on Fri Oct 2 08:56:15 .
A lot of people say that the only way to prevent tamil from death is to incorporate science in it. i have seen efforts to give tamil names to scientific terminology. there are also serious efforts to have higher technical education in tamil. my question is this: should tamil take this route(the task being herculean). will tamilians be alienated by learning science in tamil? or should we leave science to the realm of english and be perfectly happy with it?? this is not just a question of a paradigm, but a question of practicality and justifiability.
i quite agree with spaceman. its often very difficult to draw this line, though - between what to translate and what not to.
i'm a typical 2003 youngster who uses 25% of english words on an average, even while speaking in tamil. its not just because i dont know the tamil equivalents. its just that i dont care to converse in as much tamil as possible. also, if we start using the near extinct words from spoken language like perundhu and visiri, i might end up being bullied. but i know - its not the right attitude.
we have the sheer responsibility of passing on this ancient language with so much of history and literary resources to our subsequent generations. afterall tamil has lived atleast 2000 years after finding its first grammer book, leave alone the history before that which can't be dated back... while most of the languages with similar history are almost non-existent but for the literatures.
it doesn't mean, we isolate ourselves from the rest of the world by restricting our horizon. also, unlike japan or korea, we have more need to know english for our resources and oppurtunities. b'cos we know english, we get everything hot and don't have to wait for them to be translated through our own media & press.
as the thread master(?like webmaster) suggests, we have to accept that science and technology are better left to English and we learn straight from there. the efforts and sources spent in translating the materials available in english can be better spent for something else, as suggested already in this thread.
also, the situation should improve with future generations as more and more tamils start using english frequently. i meant the situation of claiming false prestige by showing off one's flair of english language.
mr. rajesh's points are very valid. i dont want to repeat them. if we think, everything is unnecessary and get satisfied with day to day use of english words in signboards etc., there is definitely a risk of losing the core language. we are still able to understand atlest half of the language written in thirukkural and puranaanuru. but it will not be the case in 3000 AD, though the changes that we appreciate during our lifetime will be very less.
also, we don't have to be very rigid in transferring each and every word. they need to be translated only if they can't be written in our language, which is often the case (b'cos our language has different letter for every sound against the european languages which have quite different basis). say.. we dont have to translate 'cycle' (it can be easily written in tamil.. let it be one of those 1000 iduguri per.. proper nouns without reason... and not a kaarana per). tamil scholars should think seriously about including sa and ja officially in tamil. though we use some letters for these sounds, they are not officially tamil letters. by making our language flexible, we only make it live only more and more years. there are few more strict rules that can be relaxed like we can't have words starting with ra, la etc. in tamil, though we have already acquired quite a lot of words like lanjam (bribe).
about nris and tamils settled in other parts of countries, there is an increased recognition among them that they should teach their children our language. often we identify our identity and culture only with language and thr' sources available in our own language.
among nris, i've noticed that the north indians - gujaratis, punjabies etc. speak their own language/hindi than south indians (including a hyderabadi i know)/ srilankan tamils.
i know a couple of professionals who repented for not having learnt tamil, being tamils. that they are not able to relate to their own group in a cultural get together and not having difficulty with their identity.
adippadai mozhi gnaanam ella thamizharkum avasiyam. they all should learn tamil atleast as a language. our media - tv, cinema and magazines have a great responsibility of giving quality tamil without 'padaadoba aangilam'. with increasing number of tamils living outside tamil speaking regions, these media are the ones which form the rich sources of tamil for future generations.
apart from these, i dont have much comments on accepting hindi as third language, as i don't see any point in it other than being identified as of single nation. but it should be left to the individual. personally, though i studied hindi, i think.. if u say to someone, only if u learn hindi or any other language, then only u r indian, then he will feel secondary in his own country. whats the big difference.. in saying 'maa thuje salaam' and 'thaay mannae vanakkam', as long as one likes to say this. especially i will mean it, when i say it in my own language.
TAMIL TECHNICAL ARTICLES IN ELECTRONICS, COMPUTERS, ENGINEERING, SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY.
INCLUDES A TECHNICAL ENGLISH-TAMIL DICTIONARY.
Yes I think it is good idea to Tamil technical terms with English in bracket. One reason is Tamil is not a phonetic language like Telugu, Hindi and the rest of India languages. It has only 25 consonants. Transliterating an English word make it more difficult to read than creating and using the Tamil equivalent with English in bracket.
Tranliterated word: Vaan (means sky); Vane tough when read the paragraph quicky.
Thirukkural "Porutpal" is the base for software development and testing. I have presented two papers on "Porul Charndha Pakkupaoivum Vadivamaippum" and "Menporul (Software) Sothanyl(testing) Porutpal" on 14.1.2004 in the International Thirukkural Conference at Anna University.
May you post my views?

Attorney Ed Smith Discusses the Dangers of Electric Scooters Invading City Streets in California
May 7, 2019 | Travel
Smith, a California Personal Injury Lawyer says the popular new transportation trend is causing an uptick in serious injuries
SACRAMENTO, CA, May 07, 2019 /24-7PressRelease/ — Electric scooters (e-scooters) are gaining popularity in almost every major city in the United States and around the world. Many people are using e-scooters to take short trips in urban areas as an alternative to bikes, cars, and buses. They are popular among the younger crowd because of their affordability and convenience.
What are Electric Scooters?
E-scooters look like a larger standup scooter except they have an electric motor and hand brakes. These battery-operated vehicles weigh about 40 pounds and can reach speeds of 15 miles per hour.
"Similar to bike sharing, scooter sharing is mainly for commuting," said Ed Smith, a personal injury lawyer in Sacramento. "It's designed to travel short distances such as riding from the bus station to the office or to a location that's about 10 to 15 minutes away."
The Start of Rentable Electric Scooters
Inspired by Uber and Lyft, scooter companies, Bird, Lime, Scoot, Skip, and Spin started populating city's sidewalks across the country in 2017 with rentable electric scooters as the next step to the transportation revolution.
Santa Monica, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, and Oakland were some of the first cities in California to embrace the e-scooter phenomenon. However, ridesharing electric scooters didn't hit the Sacramento market until February 2019, when Jump, the same company that introduced electric bikes to Sacramento the year before, rolled out its first 100 fleets of electric scooters.
Renting Electric Scooters
Riders can easily access any scooter using the company app on their smartphone. Through the app, riders can locate the nearest scooter and reserve it. Riders will use the app to digitally unlock the scooter and ride to their destination. When they are done with the scooter, they park it at a designated scooter or bike rack and digitally lock it. For cities that don't have designated racks, riders can just drop them off at any location where they won't create a risk for pedestrians or vehicles. The scooter companies keep track of the e-scooters through GPS.
Compared to other ridesharing services, e-scooters are cheap to rent. It's free to unlock through Jump then it costs 15 cents a minute after that. Other scooter companies charge $1 to unlock and 15 cents a minute. For instance, a two-mile ride that takes about 10 minutes will cost $2.50.
Benefits of Riding Electric Scooters
E-scooters are a great sustainable way to get around the city. Not only are they fun, affordable and convenient, they also promote a healthy and active lifestyle. They can also help reduce traffic congestion, emissions, and parking issues.
The Dangers of Electric Scooters
"On the flip side, e-scooters also pose a risk when being ridden carelessly," said Smith. "Accidents involving e-scooters can be deadly if the rider falls off or if the scooter malfunctions."
California Electric Scooter Laws
Like all other personal transportation, e-scooter operators must obey traffic laws and general rules of the road. The e-scooter laws in California state that riders:
•	Must have a valid driver's license or permit.
•	Are not allowed in the street with a speed limit above 25 unless they are riding in a bike lane.
•	Must be on the right side of the street next to the curb and ride in a designated bike lane if one is available.
•	Must walk their scooter in a crosswalk when crossing the road.
•	Must not ride on the sidewalk.
•	Can't have passengers.
•	Can't hitch scooters onto a vehicle in motion.
•	Must have one hand on the handlebar.
•	Must not be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
California could cap the number of scooters being rented in the cities and apply harsher penalties for anyone breaking the law.
"Although California requires riders to be at least 16 years old, some cities like Sacramento and Los Angeles require that drivers be 18 years or older to operate the e-scooters," said Smith. "Also, California recently passed a law that allows adults to ride without a helmet."
Electric Scooter Injuries
People have sustained severe injuries or even deaths in accidents involving e-scooters. Emergency rooms across the country are seeing people with injuries generally associated with car accidents such as traumatic brain injuries, broken bones, and lacerations.
"While most of the injuries were caused to the riders, pedestrians were also injured when they trip over scooters that were left on sidewalks or when the riders crash into them," Smith said.
An Uptick of Electric Scooter Injuries and Deaths
Researchers believe there are two main reasons why these injuries or deaths are happening:
The riders are inexperienced – Electric scooter riding is new to many people, and casual riders don't usually understand how to operate them safely. The scooters can go as fast as 15 miles per hour, which is a level of speed that most riders may not be able to handle.
The riders are intoxicated or impaired – Many riders are operating the e-scooters while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Even though impaired riders can cause more danger to themselves, they can also pose a risk to pedestrians.
"When some of these accidents occur, the fault isn't always on the rider," said Smith. "Some accidents are due to scooter malfunction such as the brakes not working or the throttles sticking."
What Do I Do If I Have Been Injured on an Electric Scooter?
Smith recommended that if you've sustained severe injuries in an accident involving a motorized scooter, there are a few steps you need to take immediately.
"Seek medical care as soon as possible," said Smith. "The sooner you get treatment for your injuries, the more likely you will make a full recovery."
Smith also suggest taking photos of the injuries and accident site, reporting the accident to the scooter company, getting any witnesses contact information and reaching out to a personal injury lawyer to find out about your legal rights.
Who Is Responsible in an Electric Scooter Accident?
The scooter companies may be held liable if they fail to comply with city laws, such as not providing designated parking racks. However, the scooter rider will likely be held responsible for failing to park or operate the scooter properly.
"If the rider sustained injuries in an accident that was due to a scooter malfunction, the rider could hold the scooter company responsible for any resulting damages," said Smith. "If it was due to a traffic accident, the rider would likely hold the driver liable."
E-Scooter vs. Car Accidents
Just like in any other traffic accident cases, the legal concept of negligence usually applies when building a case to hold another driver liable for the accident. The injured party must establish these four components:
•	Duty – the injured person must determine that the other party has a responsibility to drive his or her car safely.
•	Breach – the injured person must prove that the other party breached this duty.
•	Causation – the injured person must show that the breach caused the accident.
•	Damage – the injured person must confirm that the accident resulted in injury.
If successfully proven that the scooter accident led to injuries which required medical treatment, the injured party could receive financial compensation to help pay for any costs that result from the accident. This may include past and future medical bills, and past and future loss of income. Contact a personal injury lawyer in Sacramento for more information.

29 Jan The Much Anticipated "Birds of Prey" Is Coming Soon To A Cinema Near You
Posted at 12:16h in 10and5	by	Rebecca Jacobs
You ever hear the one about the cop, the songbird, the psycho and the mafia princess? "Birds Of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)"is a twisted tale told by Harley Quinn herself, as only Harley can tell it. When Gotham's most nefariously narcissistic villain, Roman Sionis, and his zealous right-hand, Zsasz, put a target on a young girl named Cass, the city is turned upside down looking for her. Harley, Huntress, Black Canary and Renee Montoya's paths collide, and the unlikely foursome has no choice but to team up to take Roman down.
Loaded with fun, dark and twisted humour that cheekily skewers pop culture archetypes and an action-packed roller coaster ride, "Birds Of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)" is the origin story of the most unlikely girl gang. Infused throughout with a bold, subversive, sometimes surreal tone and over-the-top outrageousness, "Birds Of Prey" turns the superhero genre inside out, delivering a strong message of empowerment via Harley's particular brand of anarchic joie de vivre. The film is inspired by the comic series 'Birds of Prey' which was originally published by DC Comics in 1996.
The film features an all-female super hero team, with incredibly talented actresses taking on the leading roles. The cast includes Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Huntress, Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya, and Jurnee Smollet-Bell as Black Canary. Robbie, who also serves as producer, pitched the idea for Birds of Prey to Warner Bros. Pictures in 2015. The film is the eighth film in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and a follow-up spin-off to the 2016 film Suicide Squad. It is directed by Cathy Yan and written by Christina Hodson.
The film will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures and is opening in cinemas on 7 February 2020.

August 27, 2013 — 10:50am
When compared to 2002-2010, this 2013 Twins season is a failure. When compared to the last couple years, it falls short of disaster. But whether you choose to contrast it with the better years of the Ron Gardenhire Era or damn it with faint praise because the Twins should win a handful more games this year than the past two, this much is undeniable: fans are not impressed, and rightfully so.
As such, the Twins were in no position to gouge the Target Field faithful in 2014, even with the All-Star game coming to town. And, well, in this area the Twins got one right.
The organization made a smart announcement Monday: season ticket prices will remain unchanged for the third consecutive season. The Twins also continued to try to undo a PR blunder from April, when they announced that select fans could pay $15 to gain access to the home team taking batting practice, then quickly retreated from that later in the same day amid a stream of negative feedback.
At the time, President Dave St. Peter said: "Our organization made a mistake. ... We're looking at ways to add more access to batting practice, but I'm not sure charging incrementally is the way to go about that."
On Monday, this announcement came: Season ticket holders and a guest will get exclusive access to extra BP at select Monday-Thursday home games.
As someone who enthusiastically attended as much BP as possible back in the day -- in hopes of getting a ball at a game, which has still never happened -- we like the idea of this free add-on.
The Twins have plenty of work to do in order to be competitive on the field again. That will be the thing that really wins back more and more fans. But given a chance to further alienate them, the organization in this case did the right thing.
Cleveland's rookie head coach, the former Vikings offensive coordinator, called for a punt with a little over four minutes left. The Browns never got the ball back.

At different times, elder abuse may cause a range of concerns. You may suspect that something is not right, or there may be behaviours or circumstances which make you feel anxious, distressed or fearful.
Why older people may not want to talk about elder abuse?
What if the person does not want assistance?
Elder abuse can be difficult to deal with or talk about openly. Deception, intimidation and fear are often used to keep the abuse hidden or silent.
If you have concerns, it's important to be aware of why older people may not want to talk about elder abuse or what you can do if a person does not want your assistance.
In some cases the older person may not be ready to discuss their concerns, or they may not be aware they are being abused. Tips about what to say when you are concerned can help you to start a conversation. Keep in mind that conversations should be kept confidential and occur in a safe place when opportunity allows.
If you think a crime has been committed, consider contacting police on 131 444 to discuss your concerns. A record of what you discuss may be kept and be referred to at a later date.
If there is an immediate threat to the safety of an older person, this is an emergency and you should call police on 000.
Be it deliberate or unintended, elder abuse is unacceptable. If you are responsible for the care and wellbeing of an older person learning about elder abuse, signs and indicators and elder abuse risk factors can help you recognise the warning signs and put a stop to elder abuse before it occurs or escalates.

Elder abuse may look different for older people and families from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Cultural values and beliefs, including our own, influence the way elder abuse is perceived and responded to.
Care and respect of older Aboriginal people and Aboriginal Elders is a very important part of Aboriginal culture and society. They are responsible for passing down from generation to generation life lessons, storylines, histories, songs and obligations. Elder abuse a very complex and sensitive issue. It is recommended that you seek help if you have concerns.
Call the South Australian Elder Abuse Prevention Phone Line on 1800 372 310.
The following are good tips to remember when communicating with someone you think may be experiencing elder abuse. If you are not sure, it is recommended that you contact the South Australian Elder Abuse Prevention Phone Line on 1800 372 310 for confidential support and information.
Do not criticise the abuser or older person for tolerating the abuse. This can make the older person feel defensive and not want to discuss it further. There are many reasons why a person may live in a situation where they are being abused. Focus on the importance of the older person's safety and wellbeing, and that help is available.
Acknowledge how the person is feeling. Reassure them that you believe them and that the abuse is not their fault. Remind them that help and support is available. Support them even they refuse help initially. Help may be accepted later when they feel more confident.
Prior to any action, it is important to not jeopardise the person's safety. Even if a person does talk about it, they may need your help to get things started. It may help to know who or what agency to speak to, what options are available, or even help the older person identify or collect evidence.
Isolation is a known risk factor for elder abuse. Encourage the person to stay connected to other people and to activities outside of the home. It is important for people to have a trusted person they can speak to or talk to if elder abuse becomes a reality.
Elder abuse can raise complex social and legal issues. Reassure the person that help is available. Encourage them and ask them how you can best support them.

The FM presented a very finely balanced budget. So far, as the housing sector is concerned, the Union Budget for the FY 16-17 is in line with Prime Minister's vision of 'Housing for all' by 2022.
Tax reforms made by the government are indicative of centre's seriousness towards giving a much required fillip to the housing sector. The industry has been expecting initiatives that can directly translate into benefits for the end consumer, thus increasing the velocity of transaction and improving the market sentiment.
The additional tax exemption of Rs 50,000 for the first time home buyers is certainly a welcome move. With this we expect a spur in sales and far greater traction of growth in the affordable housing segment.

The Problem With Donald Trump's Plans For The Military
Responding to Donald Trump's words on veterans and war is a formidable challenge. Much of what he's had to say thus far in the presidential race lacks experience, reason, or logic.
How exactly does one respond substantively to things like what Trump said of John McCain: "He is not a war hero. He is a war hero because he was captured, I like people that weren't captured, OK? I hate to tell you."
Or here's Trump on his experience at a military high school: according to a forthcoming book, Trump "always felt that I was in the military." and received "more training militarily than a lot of the guys that go into the military."
But the latest Trump quote going around has little to do with his opinion of McCain or his views on his own experiences. The latest episode surrounds how Donald Trump would run the American military if he were to be elected commander-in-chief.
Speaking on the deck of the decommissioned USS Iowa, the Republican frontrunner said, "We're going to make our military so big, so strong and so great, so powerful that we're never going to have to use it. We're going to have a president who is respected by Putin, respected by Iran."
It's not the first time Trump has delivered such a line. At a speech in Mobile, Alabama, in July, Trump said, "You know the thing I'll be great at that people aren't thinking? And I do very well at it. Military. I am the toughest guy. I will rebuild our military. It will be so strong, and so powerful, and so great. It will be so powerful and so great that we'll never have to use it. Nobody's going to mess with us, folks. Nobody."
At first glance, it's easy to dismiss this line as another glossing over of the complex military, foreign policy, and other policy discussions that politicians are supposed to be experts with. Thus far through the campaign season, Trump has occasionally come across like a student who neglected to read the book, but is still convinced he can ace the test.
The obvious problem, of course, is that the United States already has the most powerful military in the world by a long shot. The U.S. currently spends more on military and defense than the next seven top countries in the world combined. We spend roughly three times more on defense spending than China, and roughly six times more on defense spending than Russia, the two countries that Trump claims he as president would stand up to.
When Trump says he would rebuild our military to make it the best in the world, what exactly does he think is wrong with it? Who does he think has a stronger military right now?
But there's a bigger problem, a philosophical problem. Trump's military philosophy perhaps gives us insight into his background as a businessman. In his world, every party is a rational actor. Deals get made over dollars and cents; interests and preferences are apparent and communicated.
In this world, Trump would be right. Why would anyone go to war with a country with a military the size of the United States? In a conventional war, they would get trounced. Of course, people who study international relations know this. That's why modern democratic societies don't fight one another. Democratic societies behave rationally, and the weaker party would never commit to a war that it would lose.
The issue with Trump's line is that in the real world, there are irrational actors. Wars are fought with both parties seeking asymmetrical advantages. The 9/11 hijackers didn't compare their might to that of the U.S. military before planning their attack, nor does the rest of al Qaeda, nor does the Islamic State, nor does the Taliban. Terrorism itself becomes an rational act for groups that are so small and so radical that they could never advance their agenda without resorting to violence and fear.
In this real world, this modern world where terrorism is such an enormous part of national security concerns, it is painfully important that anyone who seeks to run the country understand this. An inability to grasp this reality is perhaps why a tough-talking businessman is not well suited to step into the West Wing.
Trump claimed to have learned more at a military high school than people learn in the actual military. I beg to differ.

Benue killings, an invitation for civil war: State APC Chairman
By The Rainbow
The Benue State Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Abba Yaro, has described the massive killing of over 50 Benue people by the Fulani herdsmen as an invitation for civil War.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday, Yaro decried the recent killings as an attempt to spark second civil war in Nigeria, insisting that, it is clear case of ethnic cleansing around the Benue Valley which must be stopped immediately.
While calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately call the Fulani to order and as well direct security agents to fish out the killers, he also called on all Benue sons and daughters, irrespective of party affiliation to rise in defence of Benue Community.
"This is above party politics, it is human lives, how can you kill a pregnant woman and removed the unborn child yet slaughtered it? It is barbaric, unspeakable and generally unpalatable," he said.
Yaro said the Anti-Open Grazing Law in Benue is not targeted at any section of the people but for the general security of Benue State, a measure against cattle rustling and a solution to herders/farmers clash.
His words: "The implementation is ongoing and we are in support of our governor, we are not deterred, the Anti-Open Grazing Law has come to stay.
"Nigerians should not see the killings as a Benue problem but National crisis, the absence of peace in Benue is an absence of peace in Nigeria.
"We must treat it as a national ethnic cleansing by the Fulanis and collectively pressurise Mr President to put an end to it. If Boko Haram can be defeated, IPOB stopped, Fulani killings can be stopped."
The Benue APC Chairman called on the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Yusuf Buratai, Interior Minister, Lt.-Gen. Abdulrahman Danbazau (rtd.), Director General of the Department of State Services (DSS), Lawal Daura, and Inspector General of Police Ibrahim Idris to protect Benue community or "we rise in self defence, which will amount to the second civil war."
Yaro emphasised that "if the Fulanis are not called to order by the relevant authorities to stop the ethnic cleansing, like the lawless Fulanis are doing, Benue people shall take laws into their hands in self defence."

Here are four main points Justin has learned along the way.
It is really important for everyone in the company to know why they come to the office each day and why they should try their best to keep developing and improving Asana. As a company, you have to have clarity of purpose, a mission, which has to be matched by all of the company's decisions made on any level. When you walk into Asana's HQ, you will see their mission statement in big letters right on the first wall you see, to remind everyone of the goal towards which they all work together.
When we want something, we often can only explain it in terms of things that we are already familiar with, but the best solutions usually come from those who listen to what's laying underneath, what's not being said. Justin explains: "building a successful product requires the combination of being able to really listen carefully to customers and at the same time […] fantasize from the scratch what something would look like." When Asana's customers started asking for a Gantt chart, instead of building the feature-in-demand, as many others would have, Asana asked their customers: "Why do you want this function?" By incorporating the first principle thinking into Asana's decision-making, they were able to come up with a brand new interface and an organic version of a Gantt chart, which left customers saying that this is better than what they originally wanted.
When you are an entrepreneur, in some ways, things will not go according to plan on a daily basis. It is easy to get disheartened when something you have worked on intensely fails or doesn't play out as expected, but Justin advises to remember that: "Problems happen, plans fail. […] The key is to not freak out and just calmly deal with each problem every day, one at a time until you achieve your desired outcome." Find your way to stay focused on the bigger picture, which will help you in staying sane and remaining stable through ups and downs. Upon being asked "How is Asana doing?", Justin recalls how it usually felt that so much had gone wrong, but when looking at the bigger picture, he would realize that they are one of the fastest growing SaaS companies, helping all these customers around the world.
Every entrepreneur shares the same experience – that almost any undertaking involves a steady stream of unexpected difficulties and mistakes. The key is to know that failure is not the end of your journey, it's just a detour.
It can be very easy to forget to take care of your body and mind when deadlines seem to pile up. Justin has developed a routine to improve his productivity, health and happiness. During our chat, he was kind enough to share his personal routine and how it benefits him.
At work, instead of jumping to completing tasks, he first prioritizes and plans his activities, creating a structure for the day and calmly going through one task after another, taking breaks when appropriate and limiting the time spent on checking email and Asana. During our conversation, Justin also quite passionately talked about the importance of exercise and sleep, which should be seen as an investment in your productivity and mental cognition.
As our time was coming to a close, Justin shared his excitement about coming to visit Helsinki for the first time. He's looking forward to experiencing the happiest country in the world, meet his customers from around the globe and get inspired to make Asana better.

Sharing Alliance Management Capabilities across Enterprise and Globe: Takeda's Center of Excellence Case Study
Posted By John W. DeWitt, Friday, September 11, 2015
Organizations today are collaborating at a pace that far outstrips the available resources of most alliance management organizations. While many collaborations don't call for a full-time alliance professional, stakeholders typically need access some level of alliance management capabilities. At Wednesday's ASAP Leadership Forum, held on the opening day of the 2015 ASAP BioPharma Conference in Boston, I chatted with several seasoned biopharma alliance executives about how they increasingly are being pulled into advisory roles for new types of alliances—presenting exciting opportunities, yes, but piling more responsibilities onto an already heavy workload.
Developing a "center of excellence," or COE, for alliance management represents an increasingly common approach for distributing the toolkits and tool-using expertise of alliance management more broadly across the organization for the use of both dedicated and part-time alliance managers. Takeda, Japan's largest pharma company with ¥1.778 billion annual revenues, built an ASAP Excellence Award-winning COE guided by alliance management practice but heavily engaging stakeholders outside the function in the COE's design. On Thursday afternoon, three Takeda executives shared their methodology, challenges, and results in a conference session titled "From the User's Perspective: An Alliance Management Center of Excellence Success Story."
Two of Takeda's senior directors of global alliance management, Gray Hulick, CA-AM, and Jenny Rohde, CA-AM, set the stage by describing the COE's development and the cross-functional team involved. "Our main finding"—and driver of the COE—was that "Takeda didn't have consistent approach to managing alliances," explained Rohde. Takeda had a vision of the COE as "a hub for members to access alliance management tools, training, and share best practices, guided by an executive steering committee from across the organization, inclusive of functional area heads, and staffed across the globe."
The COE was carefully designed from the end-user—meaning non-alliance executive—perspective.
"We did detailed needs assessments with the idea of really creating tools that our members need," Hulick explained. "Interestingly, the needs are remarkably similar. People didn't have access to tools, formal or informal alliance management training, and were unclear about what they were supposed to be doing in their jobs." So for some end users, the COE's key job was to make existing assets accessible. "We utilized in many cases tools and training we had access to—we already have toolkits focused on development and commercial partnerships."
However, Takeda at that time lacked a research alliances toolkit—"something much more streamlined for research alliances," as Hulick put it. This was developed with the deep involvement of Takeda's third presenter—Kentaro Hashimoto, PhD, associate director of the oncology drug discovery unit in Takeda's pharmaceutical research division. The need for the toolkit is clear. "More than 50 percent of our pipeline now comes from external partners—so as a research division this shows how important external innovation is to us," Hashimoto said. More than 200 research alliances translated into an overwhelming task for non-professional managers. "Sometimes scientists serve not just as investigator and project manager, but also as alliance manager," and across Takeda there was "a diversity of mindsets on how to manage alliances," he explained. "Our vision is to have access to a worldwide network of scientific excellence" enabled by partnering excellence.
The toolkits—developed by the global team of end users and alliance executives that comprise the COE—were originally written in English, but then were translated by Japanese end users as a means of increasing end user ownership and making sure that the content is actionable by these end users. Takeda also has chosen not to mandate their use, but rather to create end-user pull for these resources.
Hashimoto shared several key lessons learned.
"I have to be honest, in the real world, it's not so easy," he said. "It really takes a long time to change mindset, people's behavior, because they have their own experiences, and alliance managers have their own skills and experience too. So it can be difficult to move to a new way. Finding the right balance is important. You need to use alliance management toolkits and skills in the right time and right way. For example, forcing consensus (to sign the deal) at an early stage among researchers is not always the right way. You need to give them time before pushing for consensus. And governance—you can try to keep it as in the original contract, but sometimes the science brings things you didn't realize, and you should follow the science, be flexible, even change if needed."
Hashimoto emphasized that his involvement in the COE was a rewarding experience in many ways.
"I always enjoy working with COE core members. It was exciting to be part of this initiative." And, he added, "From the user's perspective in the research division, I got a chance to understand how our alliance management [capability] applies in a very objective way to our research activities. And we had the chance to develop by ourselves the toolkits and training programs to make our activities better."

How Three Pharma Alliance Leaders Manage Shifting Partner Priorities and Other Challenges in Mature Alliances
Posted By John W. DeWitt, Wednesday, March 4, 2015
As alliances mature, partner priorities inevitably evolve over time—and partners' commitment levels can diverge. A new licensing deal can be perceived as competing, and trust can undermine established relationship. Alliance execs can be challenged to restore alignment and avoid or manage challenges. Ron McRae, CSAP, director of alliance management at Janssen—Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson, led a panel discussion Wednesday morning, March 4, at the 2015 ASAP Global Alliance Summit in Orlando, Fla. USA. The discussion explored several commonplace scenarios that each panelist has grappled with, sharing guidelines and lessons learned in the process.
One scenario explored the ramifications when "Company E" has a new deal that could be perceived as competitive to an alliance product jointly marketed with "Company F" for the past five years. Company F has expressed concerns about Company E's commitment to the product and alliance—and fears potential leaks of confidential information to or by Company E's execs working on the new product. Fundamentally, "it's an issue of trust," McRae said in teeing up this scenario for discussion.
"There's always a gray area," responded Richard Wilson, executive director, global strategic alliances, business development and licensing, Novartis Oncology. "There's obviously competition here—and when you talk to researchers in the organization, they just want to do what's best. That's one area where the alliance manager has to be there—and where the head of research couldn't understand. That's where firewalls need to be in place and the alliance manager needs to own that."
However, he continued, "Turns out, it was not a competing product. So lessons learned—I would have addressed early on that this isn't a competing product. Don't blow up things until you know the story. Yes, there are gray areas, but hopefully the contract will make these situations few and far between."
Gray Hulick, senior director, global alliance management, at Takeda Pharmaceuticals, focused on managing the new product announcement in a manner that protects the longstanding partnership.
"As an alliance manager, you should be really connected with your deal team and know this deal is coming. What sort of communications plan can we put in place so our current partner understands what was announced?" she explained. "There's a need for a pretty specific communications plan. The issue is, you can't talk to your current partner about deal you're about to announce. So in our case, the press release goes out in Japan at 2 a.m. Then, at 2:15 a.m., an e-mail communication goes out to the partner. Being transparent with that partner is really important."
When there's a perception of an internally competing program, she added, "The instinct of most folks is to bury their heads in the sand and pretend it doesn't exist," she said. Instead, alliance executives should "encourage folks to discuss it outwardly, openly, and be transparent about it."
McRae weighed in, noting that "I certainly have dealt with this. We have to be mindful about how this is going to impact the partner. I like this concept: We implement some sort of a hotline [for our established partner], in anticipation of something that might be seen by them as a negative communication."
The panelists also discussed the importance of firewalls and guidelines for management of each partner's proprietary information, as well as being careful with internal employee transfers to competing alliances. "If employees are coming from a competing alliance," for instance, "they may not be able to share as much as you thought they could share," McRae said.
Some guidelines recommended by the panel:
Disseminate cautionary instructions to both parties' personnel who possess confidential/proprietary information
Avoid overlapping personnel
Contemporaneously record the independent development of alliances' own products
Limit personnel access to meetings that include relevant presentations/discussions
Limit/generalize information that is captured in common databases
Closely limit and control electronic access, e.g. to team portal web sites where confidential information may reside
Review the firewall requirements annually by team—and as needed for new team members

Liposuction was first introduced in the United States in the 1980s and is one of the most popular plastic surgeries performed today. It's a procedure that can safely, effectively, and permanently remove fat from the body. The procedure is best suited to removing stubborn, localized fat deposits that have been resistant to diet and exercise. With liposuction, a surgeon can sculpt or reshape areas of the body, producing a smoother, more proportional figure.
If you've lost a dramatic amount of weight, some of that delight you've been feeling by reaching your target weight may now be tempered by the fact that you find yourself with excess skin - skin that does not respond to exercise or more dieting. Thankfully, there is a way to resolve the problem: plastic surgeons can remove this extra skin. In this article, we'll review a bariatric plastic surgery procedure for removing excess skin from the upper arms.
One of the most important decisions you will make regarding plastic surgery after weight loss is choosing your surgeon. Thousands of plastic surgeons nationwide perform procedures that can help you achieve more flattering body contours, but how do you know which one is right for you? Knowing what training and experience to look for can help you narrow your choices. Finding a surgeon with whom you can communicate and feel comfortable is also key. Because your choice of surgeon is important, you will want to give significant time and thought to the decision-making process.
Many women look forward to the benefits of losing 50 pounds, 100 pounds, or even more after having bariatric surgery, but most are unaware that this weight loss may cause their breasts to lose their fullness, firmness, and shape. When breasts lose volume, they droop and sag. This common condition is called ptosis (pronounced toe-sis). If you feel self-conscious about your breasts, you may want to consider plastic surgery procedures that can restore the shape of your breasts and give your breasts a more youthful and pleasing appearance.
Oakland area post bariatric plastic surgeon Dr. Thomas McNemar has recently launched a site created to address the specific concerns of Bay Area patients before and after massive weight loss.
