Omelette (Tamagoyaki)
What is Tamagoyaki? What does Tamagoyaki sushi taste like?
What is the popular topping that uses brightly colored yolk to complement the sushi coloring, has a sweetness that you won't find in fish toppings, and an enjoyable texture? It's Omelet (tamagoyaki). There is an old phrase, "Sushi experts start with tamago." Tamagoyaki is a topping that is said to showcase the skill of a chef as there are clear differences between the shop based on the flavoring, the way it is cooked, and the way it is rolled into sushi.
At kaiten-zushi (conveyor belt sushi) restaurants, omelet toppings flavored with dashimaki are a familiar nigiri-sushi sight, but at conventional Edo-stye sushi restaurants, "kura-gake", where the egg saddles the rice, is the more common serving method. Atsuyaki** (thick) omelet is first cut into a nearly square shape, which is then cut in half. Next it is slit down the middle and bent in half. The piece is placed over the shari (vinegar rice) to complete. Sometimes oboro is added between the shari and omelet. It looks like a saddle on a horse, so it's called "kura-gake" which can be literally translated as 'putting on a saddle'. This preparation method is only common at Edo-style sushi restaurants and is the traditional way of serving tamagoyaki.
However, one characteristic of tamagoyaki is that each restaurant comes up with their own take on it. Depending on the restaurant, besides the Edo-style "Kura-gake" shape of sushi, there is also "Kashiwa-zuke***" made with shari wrapped in thin egg omelet, and shari stuffed in the slit of a dashimaki omelet. However, the number of restaurants who use pre-made tamagoyaki sold at the market is increasing, in order to save time. If this is the case, then the phrase "Sushi experts start with tamago" may not apply anymore, but that's also precisely why if you come across a sushi restaurant that has continued making tamagoyaki with painstaking care, make sure to enjoy both the unique flavor and arrangement.
*Dashimaki: Tamagoyaki that includes beaten eggs, and dashi (soup stock) made from kelp or dried bonito, then cooked in a short amount of time. After a course of uniquely flavored nigiri-sushi, this sweetness is comforting and is also a great closing piece.
**Atsuyaki: Tamagoyaki that includes shiba shrimp and fish paste and yams, then is cooked in the shape of sponge cake. It takes time, so there was a time that long-established shops increasingly withered to just barely keeping the old form, but in recent years, the young chefs in their thirties, who are currently towing the sushi industry line, have started making tamagoyaki again. Also, tamagoyaki originally had a sort of dessert role, and in recent years it has become even more notably dessert-like.
***Kashiwazuke: Each restaurant has its own flavor, and while some have a simple, light flavor, others use a lot of mirin and salt for a stronger flavor. Some restaurants also make either sweet or savory tamagoyaki based on whether it will be served as part of a nigiri menu, or as a side dish paired with sake. (Revision date: September 29, 2020)

Student Profile: Kudzaishe Chikawa
B.P.S.
School of Management,
New York, NY,
Hospitality Management, B.P.S.,
In spring 2015, a nervous Kudzaishe (Trevor) Chikawa (B.P.S. '16) sat down at a desk across from Andrea Papitto, director of trade relations and communications for the Africa Travel Association (ATA). He was there to interview her for his Hospitality 101 course project.
"Take a deep breath and relax," Papitto told Chikawa, a hospitality management major at NYIT's Manhattan campus. Her words eased his anxiety. He was also glad he followed the advice of Associate Professor Robert Koenig, Ed.D., who teaches the course, by doing advance research on Papitto prior to the interview. Chikawa credits that level of preparedness with winning her over during their meeting.
Papitto was so impressed that she offered him an ATA internship on the spot. Chikawa, who was unaware of the internship prior to their meeting, accepted it then and there. The internship entailed planning and attending the ATA's 40th Annual World Congress in Nairobi, Kenya.
Pictured from left to right are: Vinay Vaswani, Andrea Papitto, Kudzaishe (Trevor) Chikawa, and Angela Gerrow at Kenyatta International Convention Centre.
One of the most important things Chikawa learned from attending the congress was what it means to navigate a gamut of personalities in a different cultural setting.
"In class you often learn about hospitality as it pertains to Western sensibilities," said Chikawa. "Culturally, Africa is different. There is more of an emphasis on respecting your elders, and status is important."
Prior to departing for Africa to attend the ATA congress in November 2015, Chikawa performed most of his internship duties from New York. His day-to-day responsibilities included updating social media accounts and doing event planning and mass mailings. ATA congresses are conferences that provide opportunities for Africa's tourism stakeholders to network and shape an agenda for their industry.
"I was shocked at how much work we were able to do," said Chikawa. "We only had seven staff members and three interns, and we were planning a conference for hundreds of people on another continent."
Despite the workload and short lead time, Chikawa thrived in the fast-paced atmosphere of event planning. Along the way, he also gained a new understanding of himself.
"The experience was life-changing for me," Chikawa reflected. "The conference was intense, and I grew close to my team as a result. Before this internship, I often felt I was better off working by myself. Thinking back on it all, I am now able to see the value in teamwork and how important it is in accomplishing something big."
Kudzaishe (Trevor) Chikawa is pictured with a traditional dancer at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust Elephant Orphanage in Kenya.
The congress was by no means all work and no play. Chikawa and fellow colleagues took advantage of the sites and culture of Nairobi, such as perusing local markets.
Kudzaishe (Trevor) Chikawa is pictured at a market in Kenya.
"ATA staffers trusted us as interns and treated us more like family," said Chikawa.
The internship also fulfilled Chikawa's interest in working in the tourism industry in Africa. He was born in Zimbabwe and educated in Beijing, China. After starting his college career in California, Chikawa wanted a change and transferred to NYIT in spring 2015 to enroll in the hospitality management program. He was drawn by city life and NYIT's small classes, which afforded more one-on-one attention from faculty members.
"Dr. Koenig says I need to make my own opportunities," said Chikawa. "No one is going to do it for me. This program has pushed me to make my own experiences. It verified for me that I made the right choice in coming to NYIT."
Since traveling to Nairobi, Chikawa has broadened his ambitions. He imagines a career path dedicated to improving tourism for all of Africa.
"The opportunities are endless, and I can't wait to go back," said Chikawa.

My 2019 winter solstice themed adventure Midvinter is on sale for less than one dollarpound, from now until the end of the winter solstice itself, at DriveThruRPG!
In related news, you can listen to some people playing the adventure below, although there will of course be spoilers:

Mince Pie Fest 2022: The Results!
As I said yesterday, there is still more testing to come, for some special categories, but the main ratings are done.
Over 20 different varieties of mince pies have been tasted and tested -- well, just tasted, I'm not doing anything else with them, except for an early attempt at a mince pie milkshake that, reader, did not go well -- and a clear favourite emerged, and early too. But first, the runners-up:
Asda, Tesco, and, er, Asda produced some solid 4 out of 5 pies, and each is a good alternative if you can't find the best ones, which are...
Once again, COOP rules the roost, which I think may almost be a pun? Last year's winners were an excellent 4.5 out of 5 in 2022, er, too. Last year they sold out super quick and were difficult to find, so keep your eyes peeled!
Congratulations COOP. Feel free to send me free mince pies, or food vouchers, or cash.
But wait! There's more!
Also a 4.5er was this boozy beast from Asda:
I cannot in good conscience proclaim it a joint winner because I'm not sure it's a proper mince pie in the spirit of the competition, but it is very nice indeed, and I'm going to get at least two for the Chrimble period. I will not be sharing.
Also very tasty, but the complete opposite in girth, were these lovely pies from Sugarlumps:
Useless to most of you, but if you're in the greater Brighton area in the run up to Indiana-Jones-on-BBC1-Season, then make sure you grab some.
And now, for those who care, stats!
Here's the top five from 2021:
(Believe it or not, I was going to just test last year's top five this year, but oops.)
This shows us that COOP has maintained its quality for the most part. M&S seems to also have kept up, but 2022 has been a disaster for Iceland and Sainsbury's. There may be other things to learn from this data, probably something like how I'm more strict this year, but I'll leave that to the statisticians.
There will be more mince pie content on the way, as we delve into some special categories, but for now, off you go to buy your minceys!

Mince Pie Fest 2022: Morrisons The Best
Oh ho! That's a bold claim. I'll be the judge, Son of Morris.
Right away, there's an explosion of powdered sugar that goes everywhere, turning your surroundings into an appropriate snowy scene. A bit of a pain if you're wearing dark colours.
The pastry is sweet and juuuuuust on the right side of firm, and the filling is bursting with flavour. It's fruity and juicy and there's a strong taste of something a bit like Parma Violets in there, that I can't quite place. While strong, it's also a flat and mellow flavour, and I prefer the zing of citrus or a boozy punch in my pies, so these are never going to be my favourites, but even so I can taste the quality.
The Best? I don't think so, but I acknowledge that someone with different tastes might. 4 out of 5.
These are the last of the mince pies on my testing list. We're done!
Well, not quite, there will be some other scores to quite literally settle, but the main testing is done. You can go back and find my favourites if you want, but I will post an announcement of the winner very soon.
(Tomorrow, it will be tomorrow.)
Mince Pie Fest 2022: Morrisons
Almost in the final stretch now. Which is good. We've all got homes to go to.
The pastry on these tiny pies is firm, but not crunchy -- thank the ancestors! -- but is a bit dry. You'll want a cup of tea with these. Or even better, custard!
(I sit back and imagine the cries of dismay echoing around the interwebs.)
The filling is surprisingly flavourful; there's lots going on and it's all good, with a lovely warmth throughout. There is a strange and suspicious aftertaste, almost like flowers, that threatens to ruin things, but it passes quickly, thank the ancestors. Again.
For "cheap" mince pies, these are really quite good! Shame about the size.
(That's what she said.)
3.5 out of 5.
Mince Pie Fest 2022: The Bastard Kipling
The Bastard Kipling, for the sake of completeness.
And in fairness, not bad. The pastry is too firm, nudging just into the dreaded crispy zone, and is a touch too sweet, but the filling has some good flavour, although it lacks any distinctive tastes. Some stronger spices or a hit of alcohol or citrus would have been welcome.
An Exceedingly Average Cake. Pie. Whatever. 3 out of 5.

Magic Eater should be out in early 2023.

Mince Pie Fest 2022: Sugarlumps Service
Alas, you will not be able to find these everywhere, as they are local, but perhaps you can bung sugarlumps.service a handful of £50 notes to deliver internationally.
These are lovely little pies, with a proper hearty crust and a rich, tangy filling that's full of flavour. I could quite happily eat an entire box in minutes.
Which is exactly what happened. 4 out of 5.
Mince Pie Fest 2022: M&S Collection
More pies, this time of the fancy variety, from M&S. How much more fancy? Read on, MacDuff.
The pastry has a nice crumble to it, not too soft, and not too firm, but there is a hit of an unpleasant bitter aftertaste. The filling is fruity and juicy and there are some vague suggestions of stronger flavours in there, but they never quite come through. It's a tasty filling, but it just feels like there should be something more than just "tasty" going on at this price.
If these are indeed fancier than the previous pies, it's only in terms of price. 3.5 out of 5.

Wakanda Again
You know that thing where the most interesting Marvel films were framed as other genres that just happened to be in the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Winter Soldier was a 1970s conspiracy/spy -- conspyracy? conspiraspy? -- film... but in the MCU. Homecoming was a John Hughes teen comedy... but in the MCU.
Well, Black Panther 2 is an Oscar-tickling drama of family, grief, and loss... but in the MCU. It's an astonishing feat of balanced storytelling, weighty but without ever getting heavy-handed, informed by the death of Chadwick Boseman, but not milking that unfortunate event. But it is also, somehow, a big Marvel blockbuster, although that side does feel almost like an afterthought at times, which to be fair is not a bad thing.
It looks -- mostly -- amazing, it sounds spectacular, and the performances throughout are brilliant. It's not perfect -- there are a couple of elements that feel a bit undercooked, and I would not be at all surprised to see an extended cut appear, perhaps for the home release -- but it is very, very good. If you've been feeling Marvel Fatigue, this may well cure you.
I give it four Sub-Mariners out of five.
Labels: Black Panther, I review films, Marvel
Mince Pie Fest 2022: M&S Classic
M&S! As Cat Stevens wrote (probably), the first bite is the weakest.
There's so much sugar on these pies that the top is all crunchy, and I'm not a fan of crunchy. The good news is that the rest of the pastry is firm but crumbly, and much better than the top.
The filling lacks any particular strong flavours -- there's no booze or citrussy kick here -- but does have a pleasant and moreish fruitiness.
These are nothing special, but are perfectly decent pies that are only let down by that dodgy top. 3.5 out of 5.
Mince Pie Fest 2022: Waitrose Unessentials
Look, yesterday was (mostly) a joke and I don't have it in for Waitrose. I say this because of what's to follow, and I don't want people thinking it's some vendetta against the poshos or something.
Eat the rich, they say, well go ahead, but don't eat their mince pies. For reasons beyond my working class comprehension, these are even worse than the cheap and not-so-cheerful pies from yesterday. The pastry is dreadful; crunchy, and with a thick coat of chunky granulated sugar, the texture is like eating glass. Or so I'd imagine.
The filling is fruity but has a dull, musty flavour with no citrus or alcohol to give it a bit of interest. It sort of tastes purple-grey, like a depressed grandma.
These are dreadful mince pies. 1.5 out of 5.
#MincePieFest2022 #MincePieADay #mincetagram
Mince Pie Fest 2022: Waitrose Essentials
These are part of Waitrose's probably reluctant admission that there are people who are not upper middle class, and may need access to cheaper food. Let us see what our betters have provided for us.
The pastry is so soft the whole pie threatens to disintegrate as it's held, but once it's in the mouth it resolves into a dry, dusty mess that could easily choke the unwary. What little flavour there is, is bitter and salty, evoking the contempt the average Waitrose shopper has for any household with a second hand car or fewer than four bedrooms.
There is a filling, but I couldn't tell you what it tastes like because it tastes of nothing, but that's probably good enough for the likes of us, as we scrabble for scraps and dream of revolution.
2 out of 5.
Mince Pie Fest 2022: Waitrose Bakery
I nipped into Waitrose for this one and escaped before security noticed my social status. Alas, my reward for my act of class warfare was blandness.
The pastry is soft, with a hint of pleasant chewiness, but no strong flavour. No problem, though, because the filling will make up for it, right? Bueller?
Ah. No. The filling is there, but I can't say much more than that. There's a brief stab of alcohol in there, but otherwise it's just a layer of generic fruity, jammy "stuff".
It's fine. Not fine but fine. 3 out of 5.

Mince Pie Fest 2022: Asda Extra Special Giant Mince Pie
While the Americans get ready for their traditional Thanksgiving treats of Gasoline Pie, Cowboy Grits, and Lincoln Logs, here the Mince Pie Fest continues with this absolute unit.
These have apparently been selling out and have been difficult to find, but thanks to a keen-eyed reader, I am in possession of the Holy Grail. And also this pie.
In theory, this should just be a bigger version of yesterday's pies, but we will see.
What this has in common with yesterday's entry is that rich, boozy filling, but if anything this is even richer and more boozy than those. I did not think it possible, but they seem to have poured an entire minibar into this and I think I might be drunk.
I don't really like alcohol -- I might have a cider once a year, maybe -- but this is amazing, but maybe that's the drink talking. But but but.
But I must be professional and I should report that maybe the booze overpowers the other flavours; there is a lovely fruity, saucy filling in there, but it's almost swept aside by the Power of Firewater. And if you don't like boozy flavours then this is no good for you, but that's okay because if you do buy it by mistake you can send it to me. Thanks.
(I think I'm sobering up now.)
The pastry is better than that of the pie's smaller cousins. It's still firm, but less crunchy, and has a pleasant sweet taste, understated but just enough of a contrast to that powerful, punchy filling.
This is a difficult one to score. The things I like about it are going to be deal breakers for others, plus it's not really a traditional mince pie. Let's give it 4.5 out of 5, but with an asterisk.
Maybe I am still drunk.
Mince Pie Fest 2022: Asda Extra Indulgent
"Extra Indulgent" seems a bit redundant, like "more unique".
These are very chunky minceys! I'm not sure the pictures convey how deep these pies are. I imagine they are probably expensive, but I was gifted them so I don't know.
The pastry is chunky and somewhat crispy, which is not my favourite texture, but there's a nice sweet taste at least.
The filling is rich and fruity and saucy, and then there's a BIG hit of booze that made my eyes water and would probably bar me from driving. If I could drive.
These are big, confident pies full of big, confident flavour, with only the crunchy pastry (and maybe the price?) letting them down. 4 out of 5.
Mince Pie Fest 2022: Lidl Deluxe
We've seen what Aldi has to offer, now let's see what their Teutonic rivals can bring to the Chrimble table!
The pastry looks anaemic, and tastes undercooked and a tad stodgy. The filling starts off a bit bland but then there's a sudden rush of rich juicy flavour and a late hint of boozosity.
A very confusing pie, this. Seems awful at first, but turns out okay. 3 out of 5.

Yahoo DFS Basketball: Tuesday Picks
Mike Barner
December 28, 2021, 3:29 AM ·4 min read
As far as Tuesdays go, we have a busy one with eight games scheduled. COVID-19 continues to sideline players at an alarming rate, making for some ugly depth charts across the league. On the bright side, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported Monday that players can clear quarantine after six days, instead of the previous 10-day mark. That could lead to significant reinforcements coming for some teams. One who could use the help is the Warriors, who saw Draymond Green join their list of players in the health and safety protocols over the weekend. Let's dig into the matchups and highlight some players to consider for your Yahoo lineups, as well as a few to possibly avoid.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, OKC at SAC ($36): COVID-19 has reached the Thunder, who have placed four players in the protocols the last two days. With their outbreak just starting, you'll want to keep a close eye on their injury report leading to tip off. As long as he remains healthy, this could be a great spot to deploy Gilgeous-Alexander given that the Kings have the fourth-worst defensive rating in the league.
Kemba Walker, NY at MIN ($22): Walker has done nothing but shine since rejoining the Knicks rotation, scoring at least 39.0 Yahoo points in each of the last four games. He logged at least 37 minutes in each of those games, helping the Knicks go 2-2. With Derrick Rose (ankle) out, Walker may have used his second chance to secure a key role with the Knicks.
Guard to Avoid
Kevin Porter Jr., HOU vs. LAL ($25): Porter (thigh) was active Monday against the Hornets, but did not play. It might have just been a situation in which the Rockets didn't want him to come back from nearly a month on the sidelines to immediately play on consecutive nights. Even if he plays in this matchup, though, he could face a minutes limit.
Yuta Watanabe, TOR vs. PHI ($16): The Raptors could be getting some reinforcements with Pascal Siakam and Gary Trent Jr. possibly coming back from the health and safety protocols. However, they should still have several other absences, which could lead to added playing time for Watanabe. In 37 minutes against the Cavaliers on Sunday, Watanabe scored 26 points to go with 13 rebounds, one steal and one block. If he can play about 30 minutes in this game, he could provide value.
Nemanja Bjelica, GS vs. DEN ($10): Andrew Wiggins is expected to return for this game, which would provide a significant boost for the Warriors. They had to place Green in the protocols Sunday, leaving a massive hole in their frontcourt. His absence could lead to added minutes for Bjelica, who has averaged 11.3 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists in six games in which he has logged at least 20 minutes.
Forward to Avoid
Harrison Barnes, SAC vs. OKC ($22): Barnes hasn't been the same player since missing a five-game stretch with a foot injury. Across the last 10 games, he has shot just 39.3 percent from the field. The odd part is, he's shot 40.0 percent from behind the arc during that stretch. On a busy night like this with so many viable options, it might be best to avoid Barnes until he shows signs of turning things around.
Joel Embiid, PHI at TOR ($50): With all of their COVID issues, the Raptors are lacking size for this battle with Embiid. He comes into this game on a hot streak, averaging 33.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.0 blocks in the last four games. There is some blowout risk that could leave Embiid with added time on the bench in the fourth quarter, but even if that scenario unfolds, he could do plenty of damage along the way.
Omer Yurtseven, MIA vs. WAS ($12): The Heat are running out of viable center options with Bam Adebayo (thumb) and Dewayne Dedmon (knee) out. Yurtseven stepped into the starting five with Dedmon out Sunday, posting 16 points and 15 rebounds against the Magic. The last five games, he's averaged 8.6 points and 12.8 rebounds. At near the minimum salary, he's a prime option if you want to fade Embiid in tournament play.
Center to Avoid
Daniel Gafford, WAS at MIA ($16): The Wizards have a deep frontcourt, which has limited Gafford to an average of only 22 minutes per game. That has contributed to him scoring 25.7 Yahoo points or fewer in six of the last seven games. Yurtseven has arguably a higher upside to go with a cheaper salary, making it difficult to justify taking a chance on Gafford.

World On Fire: Track By Track
By Mark Blake & Paul Elliott (Classic Rock) 01 March 2014
Slash and Myles Kennedy's track-by-track guide to the album.
Slash and Myles Kennedy on sex, love, murder and conscientious objectors…
**WORLD ON FIRE **
Slash: A riff I wrote on the road and jammed at soundcheck last year. The working title was I Wanna Pull Your Hair – it was all about sex. Myles picked up on that and turned it into the ultimate "Let's do it now!" song: "This might be the last moment on Earth, so let's do it like it's the last moment on Earth."
Myles: The title track is about seizing the day and living for the moment. Above all, it's about living your life with no regrets. Doing what you want – doing whatever makes you happy. Carpe diem./o:p
AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE
Slash: I was sitting on the couch in front of the TV waiting for the car to come and pick me up to take me to the airport as we were going to France. I had my guitar and was playing this riff, and it stuck in my head for however long I was in Europe.
Myles: This is about trying to keep up with the consummate party girl – basically, someone who's living on 10 all the time. We've all known those people who have that kind of dynamic. That song makes me smile.
WICKED STONE
Slash: It's another riff from the road. I listened to it again when I came home. It evolved in the studio and went through so many changes when we recorded it.
Myles: This song could pertain to a lot of different things, but it's really about someone who's in the throes of addiction and coming to terms with wanting to fight for a better existence. It's a subject matter I've touched on before, and I felt like the music in this song called for that again.
30 YEARS TO LIFE
Slash: Honestly that's one of my favourite songs on the record. It's different to what I usually write. It's all eight notes on the downstring but it's really fun. There were parts of the song we jammed in soundchecks. It was one of those riffs that I knew was on my computer and was great. But when we got home, I had to spend some time digging it out.
Myles: This is a true story about a hate crime in the Pacific Northwest. It happened quite a while ago, when the perpetrator was in his late teens. He was just a young man and he took someone's life. It made me think. I wondered if, as the years have gone by, this person had any regrets. They were so young when the crime happened, and maybe they had grown as a person and regretted the fact they did something so heinous to somebody else, and ultimately they will pay for that for the rest of their life in prison.
BENT TO FLY
Slash: One of the album's slower songs, this was written in the dressing room for Conan [the US talk show presented by Conan O'Brien]. That day Myles and I were doing Nothing Left To Fear for the movie I produced [2013's Nothing Left To Fear]. We were sitting around and I played it for Myles and he liked it.
Myles: This is a coming-of-age story. You reach a point as a young person where you have to fly the nest. The song has a character conveying to his mother that it's time to go. It definitely stirred up some memories. I flew the nest a little earlier than most because of something that happened with my parents. My stepdad got a job that meant he had to leave the city, so I chose to stay and finish my last year of school without my stepdad and my mom around. That was tough. It definitely forced me to grow up faster./o:p
SHADOW LIFE
Slash: When we did Apocalyptic Love, there was a song called You're A Lie. We wrote that when we were rehearsing before recording. Then, all of a sudden, it wasn't flowing. So on the spur of the moment we tore out the riff, wrote a new chorus and that became You're A Lie. After that, we were racking our brains what to do with the riff. I kept dicking around with it and writing new parts. It was the most laboured song on the record because of its origins, but we found a good chorus and it became the song it is now.
Myles: I loved the TV show Mad Men, and that was the inspiration for this. The main character in Mad Men, Don Draper, leads this kind of double life. The song illustrates how complex life can become when you're trying to lie to yourself and lie to your family./o:p
STONE BLIND
Slash: Another couch song, in that I came up with the riff lying around at home on my couch!
Myles: Beauty is a very powerful drug, and this is about someone who's blind to the deceptive ways of another – basically because of their beauty. Sometimes, guys in particular can't see the forest for the trees. Beauty really is a powerful, powerful drug.
Slash: This the oldest riff on the record. It's a tricky riff that dates back to Apocalyptic Love, but I really hadn't sussed it out then. Rick Nielsen from Cheap Trick was rehearsing next door to us and he heard it so many times he learnt the riff! We hammered it on the road and when we came back from the tour, we finally got it together.
Myles: It's about a personality type: a person whose actions will usually bring about consequences that are not necessarily the best. The song isn't about anybody in particular – it's about a type. A type we all know.
BENEATH THE SAVAGE SUN
Slash: This is a subject dear to my heart – elephant poaching. Being an animal activist, I'm glad to speak out against that. So the music was a dressing-room riff that turned into this epic song. The middle section was written separately, so I had to dig into my computer and it took me an hour to find it.
Myles: The genesis of this lyrical idea came about last year when we were in South Africa touring with the Kings Of Chaos. We befriended this park ranger there named JP, and he educated my wife and I about what was going on with poaching, with rhinos, with elephants. So I wrote this story about an elephant whose mate is killed by a poacher, and it vows to take revenge on the poacher. The fight against this kind of poaching is something that we've all become active in – my wife and I, and Slash, we're all pretty passionate about it.
WITHERED DELILAH
Slash: This is an old soundcheck riff we kept playing. It's a real rock'n'roll lick. The rest of the guys loved it.
Myles: It's inspired by an article I read about the entertainment industry, and the movie industry in particular. A lot of times when actresses reach their later years, they're not used any more in films. They kind of become irrelevant because their beauty fades.
Slash: It's one of the ballads, if there are any real ballads on the album. It's a love-interest thing. It's something I jammed in soundcheck and then spent a lot of time working on at home on the acoustic guitar.
Myles: Battleground is essentially the dynamic that a lot of people find in relationships. There's a key line in this song: 'In the bed where we're used to making love, now we're making war instead.' A lot of times people stop speaking or doing all the things they used to do. It's something that I've gone through as an adult plenty of times. We all have. But it's certainl not a commentary for where I'm at personally. In fact, we just celebrated our 11-year anniversary, so… I'm using artistic licence here!
Slash: This is a riff I wrote years ago but was never able to develop into something that would work for a rock'n'roll band. It was too funky! I played it to Myles before my first solo record. He liked it, and when we were doing Apocalyptic Love, it came up but it hadn't come together. This time it came up again and became an entirely different song. In fact, it's not even the original riff.
Myles: This song is very tongue-in-cheek and very funny. The idea is that this guy has… I don't want to say fallen in love, but he's pretty infatuated with this chat-room girl. I'm sure that's a pretty common story: these poor blokes that are trying to get their kicks, spending their money on someone far, far away on another computer screen./o:p
IRIS OF THE STORM
Slash: Another road riff. I played this to the guys in its most simplistic form in a soundcheck. But I needed to bring it home after the tour to work on it.
Myles: The title is based on the idea that in the eye of the storm it's actually calm. I've always thought the image of that is fascinating. I used 'Iris' instead of 'Eye' because it sang better. The lyric is about trying to navigate through a sea of naysayers. Someone is trying to go out and do what they believe is right, they believe in themselves, and yet the world around them is telling them they can't do it.
Slash: This one is influenced by any number of Irish style bands, especially [the late guitarist] Rory Gallagher. Rory was such a great guitarist and so underrated in the scheme of things. Avalon has that bouncy, Irish, knees-up dance thing going on.
Myles: It's the story of a soldier who comes back from battle. He's been gone for so long that his lover has forgotten about him. So his new battle now is to try to win her back, to win her heart again.
Slash: This is something the guys in the band are familiar with from soundchecks. It was a melody I was playing a lot, but at first I couldn't work out how to turn it into a song. It's Myles's political statement.
Myles: The original title for this song was Conscientious Objector, but we changed the title because it was a little too much of a tongue-twister. The song is about a soldier who starts to question what he's fighting for. He doesn't believe that the war is right any more. Todd does a really great little intro to the song – he picked up an acoustic guitar and started strumming away, and it was recorded. We all loved it, so we ended up putting it on the beginning of the song.
SAFARI INN
Slash: This is the instrumental, and it's named after a hotel in LA. I used to drive by it every day at one time, and I always thought it was a cool name and that something could come out of the place.
Myles: The instrumental. Slash came up with that title. I think it's named after a hotel in Hollywood, if I'm not mistaken. A reputable establishment, I'm sure.
THE UNHOLY
Slash: The origins of this song came from me wondering when I wrote for movies if I used a different part of my creative brain. That's an interesting phenomenon that's only come up in recent years.
Myles: This is the heaviest song on the record in terms of subject matter. It's about the cases that have come out recently about all the priests who have basically gotten busted for what they did to young boys. A lot of these crimes happened years and years ago, but now that these boys have grown up, the story comes out. Writing a song like this is tricky. When I first heard the music, I knew that it was a real epic piece. With a track like that, it had to be something pretty deep and dark, and that's where it took us./o:p

Q: onclick also redirects to "form action" I have a little field for the password with a button next to it. If you click the button it shows your password and if you click it again it'll hide it. This all works fine, but right after it showed your password it'll do the action I've set for my form. Any ideas on how to solve this?
<form action='bod.php' method='post'>

    <input type='text' name='Email' id='Email' placeholder='E-mail' class='input-effect form__input' value='$Email'>

    <input type='password' name='Wachtwoord' id='Wachtwoord' placeholder='Wachtwoord' class='input-effect form__input' value='$Wachtwoord'>

    <input type='image' src='img/eye.png' onClick='showPswd()' class='show'>

    <input type='text' name='Bod' id='Bod' placeholder='Bod' class='input-effect form__input' onchange='controleerBod()'>

     <button type='submit' id='Bied'>Bied</button>

</form>

 // This is my JavaScript (it works)
// Show password
function showPswd() {
  var x = document.getElementById("Wachtwoord");
  if (x.type === "password") {
     x.type = "text";
  } else {
    x.type = "password";
  }
}

So if you click on the Image "eye.png" it'll show your password and if you click a second time it'll hide it.
Right now it shows your password and immediately reconnects to "bod.php"(the form action).

A: You need to use the preventDefault() function. And You also need to pass the event argument in your function
<input type='image' src='img/eye.png' onClick='showPswd(event)' class='show'>

This should be your JS code
function showPswd(evt) {
    evt.preventDefault();
    var x = document.getElementById("Wachtwoord");
    if (x.type === "password") {
       x.type = "text";
    } else {
      x.type = "password";
    }
}

A: Use image, as image. Try this:

Compared with some of the great spiritual "luminaries" of our own time, this may seem a bit unpastoral, but nevertheless, just as St. John has a homily for Pascha, he has a homily for Holy Thursday. Unfortunately, this homily is not heard by nearly so many people, because this service is not nearly so well attended, and it is often not read even for those who do attend... though it should be.
O my beloved and greatly-desired brethren who have gathered in the Holy Church of God, in order to serve the Living God in holiness and righteousness, and, with fear, to partake of the holy, most-pure, and immortal, awesome Mysteries of Christ: Hearken unto me who am lowly and unworthy. For it is not I who am speaking to you and instructing you; rather the grace of the Most-holy and Life-giving Spirit; for I speak not from myself, but as I have been instructed by the divine canons, and the God-bearing Fathers, as the Church received instruction from the divine Apostles who received their wisdom from God, so do I myself speak, who am lowly and least of all. I know not your works; I consider not that which you have begun; and so, as one who fears God, I give counsel to everyone among you, whether man or woman, whether great or small, to anyone of you that may be guilty of sin, convicted by your own counsels, that first you must repent and confess your sins, that you may dare, considering yourself unworthy, to approach and touch the Divine Fire Itself. For our God is a consuming Fire, and they, therefore, who with faith and fear draw near to the God and King and Judge of us all, shall burn and scorch their sins; and It shall enlighten and sanctify their souls. But It shall burn and scorch with shame, the souls and bodies of them that draw near with unbelief. Therefore, many among you are ill and sleep in sickness, that is, many are dying unconfessed and unrepentant. And furthermore, my brethren, I beseech you, and I say: no one that swears oaths, nor a perjurer, nor a liar, nor one that finds fault with others, nor a fornicator, nor an adulterer, nor a homosexual, nor a thief, nor a drunkard, nor a blasphemer, nor one that envies his brother, nor a murderer, nor a sorcerer, nor a magician, nor a charmer, nor an enchanter, nor a robber, nor a Manichean, shall, unconfessed and unprepared, approach, touch, or draw near the dread Mysteries of Christ, for it is terrible to fall into the hands of the Living God. For the Word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the joints and marrow and bones, and thoughts and hearts. See, therefore, my brethren, that no one approach, unrepentant or unprepared or unworthily, to partake of His dread and most-pure Mysteries. For He Himself saith: I am He, and there is no god besides me; I kill, and I make alive; neither is there any that can deliver out of My hand; for I, Myself, am King forever: to Whom is due all glory, honor, and worship: to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages, Amen.

David Kelly laid to rest
The funeral included elements of the Baha'i faith
The funeral of weapons expert Dr David Kelly has taken place at a church close to the beauty spot where he apparently took his own life.
His wife Janice, 58, and daughters Sian, 32, and twins Ellen and Rachel, 30, led up to 160 mourners in the service at St Mary's Church, Longworth, near Faringdon in Oxfordshire.
Senior judge Lord Hutton, who is to conduct an inquiry into Dr Kelly's death, and Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott, representing the government, attended the private service.
It was a beautiful service - it was quiet, it was gentle and in every kind of way, it reflected the man
Tom Mangold
Baha'i followers pay tribute
The church bell tolled shortly before 1400 BST as a hearse arrived bearing a coffin topped with white roses and lilies, followed by cars carrying mourners.
Dr Kelly is thought to have committed suicide after speculation - later confirmed by the BBC - that he was the source of stories that raised concerns over the way the government presented its case for war with Iraq.
The 59-year-old's body was found in woods at Harrowdown Hill, Longworth, on 18 July.
An inquest into his death was opened and adjourned on 21 July at Oxfordshire Coroner's Court.
THE BAHA'I RELIGION
Follows the teachings of Baha'u'llah, an Iranian nobleman whose name means the Glory of God in Arabic
Started in the mid-19th Century and really spread to the West after 1911
Claims 6,000 followers in the UK and five million worldwide
Teaches that all different religions are different facets of the same truth
No heaven or hell, but talks of a journey to being closer to God, which begins in this life
The funeral service featured readings and prayers from the Baha'i religion, which Dr Kelly converted to four years ago.
The faith has five million followers across 235 countries and territories, with around 6,000 in the UK.
Journalist Tom Mangold, a friend of Dr Kelly who is making a film about the events leading to his death, said it was "a beautiful service", with the first hymn, Bread of Heaven, reflecting the scientist's Welsh roots.
"It was quiet, it was gentle and in every kind of way it reflected the man," he said.
"There was a reading from the Baha'i, but it was essentially a Christian service and beautifully conducted and lots of tears, lots of reflection and I think David would have loved it."
The Rev Roy Woodhams, who conducted the service, spoke of how proud Dr Kelly had been of his Rhondda background, how he loved rugby and how his friends called him Dai, said Mr Mangold.
"The vicar began by saying: 'We are here because a tragedy has taken place - we are not here for the media or to make a political statement, or to apportion blame', so he set the agenda pretty quickly," said Mr Mangold.
Dr Kelly is being laid to rest in St Mary's churchyard
"What is important about the funeral is that it really is a moment of great catharsis for the family ...
"They were surrounded by David's friends, by the people who knew him, who loved him and by some of the high and mighty of the land, but not that many.
"It was wonderful that the funeral could be so quiet and dignified given the circumstances surrounding his death."
A poem about the Longworth area, where Dr Kelly loved to walk, was also read at the service.
Dr Kelly was being laid to rest in the shadow of the north side of the building of the 13th Century church, where on Wednesday the Union Flag was flying at half-mast.
A pooled media facility was set up by Thames Valley Police involving a Sky News cameraman and a Press Association reporter and photographer, in an effort to maintain the "privacy and dignity" of the occasion.

"Today, I voted against legislation for transportation funding that would essentially dump billions of dollars into Philadelphia and Pittsburgh's mass transit systems at the cost of thousands of Pennsylvania drivers.
"House Bill 1590 calls for several new tolls on I-80 and higher tolls--25 percent higher in 2009 and 3 percent higher each year thereafter on the Pennsylvania Turnpike, with revenue going to support SEPTA and the Port Authority of Allegheny County. Once again, the entire Commonwealth is forced to bail out the antiquated and poorly-managed mass-transit systems in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia.
"Do not be fooled. If something looks like a tax, sounds like a tax, and acts like a tax--it is a tax. Calling this revenue a 'toll' or 'user fee' does not change the fact that this is yet another tax on the people of Pennsylvania. This is lose-lose legislation.
"The governor chooses to ignore the fact that several of our local roads and bridges are falling apart. Instead of using this revenue to fix these roads, the governor once again chooses to dig into people's wallets to bail out mass-transit, a service which many Pennsylvanians will never use, particularly those in western Berks County.
"So get your quarters ready. There's a new toll booth...and a new tax ahead."

Bad Sex on Film Awards: Our Favorite Hilariously Awful Sex Scenes
By Tom Hawking
Serious literary prizes like the Booker and the National Book Awards are all very well, but we'll be honest and say that the award we really look forward to every year is the Literary Review 's Bad Sex in Fiction award. This year's winner was announced this week — it's David Guterson, for his novel Ed King, which described the titular character having sex with, um, his mother as follows: "It didn't take long for the beautiful and perfect Ed King to ejaculate for the fifth time in twelve hours, while looking like Roman public-bath statuary. Then they rinsed, dried, dressed, and went to an expensive restaurant for lunch." Right. But anyway, the whole sorry business got us thinking that there really should be an equivalent for film — after all, Hollywood has been responsible for some of the most hilariously awful depictions of sex you'll ever see. Like the ones after the jump, for instance. (This is all hugely NSFW, by the way.)
For whatever reason, it was the '90s that gave rise to some of cinema's most dreadful sex scenes — perhaps because of the unexpected success of Basic Instinct, which meant Paul Verhoeven was still allowed to make films, and the subsequent glut of "erotic thrillers" that were neither erotic nor thrilling. It wasn't just Verhoeven's fault, though — even the Greatest Director of All Time™ got in on the act (as it were). The Kubrickians probably won't take this well, but if conclusive proof was ever needed that Xenu and group sex don't mix, then look no further than the orgy scene from Eyes Wide Shut, which aims for "erotic" and "edgy" and ends up with something that looks like the participants are components of some weird flesh machine operated by deviants in Kabuki masks.
Body of Evidence
Also from the dark history of '90s "erotic thrillers." Younger readers may find it hard to believe, but there was a time when Madonna was widely considered both edgy and sexy. (Not by this writer, we hasten to add — but still.) Happily, Body of Evidence put paid to any such ideas, unless the idea of her having "kinky" sex with Willem Dafoe is your idea of a good time, in which case we feel for you.
Paul Verhoeven. Of course. OK, not actually Paul Verhoeven at all. Curses. Thanks to the commenters who pointed out that we got director Verhoeven mixed up with writer Joe Eszterhas, who was responsible for all of Sliver, Basic Instinct and Showgirls (the latter two were directed by Verhoeven, in our defence). Anyway, we're still going to stick to our write-up, which went something like this: "A fantasy pornworld where pneumatic positions are the norm, women like nothing better than to be shoved up against stone columns (while wearing high heels, of course), and scratching someone's back with your fingernails elicits moans of pleasure (as opposed to a bewildered "Um… what the fuck are you doing?!")."
Younger readers may also struggle to believe that at a certain moment in the '90s, the idea of Denise Richards and Neve Campbell getting it on was widely considered basically the hottest thing ever ever ever. Until, of course, it was actually filmed, at which point it emerged that it was a) unfeasible, b) not actually particular sexy, and c) completely ruined by the presence of Matt Dillon anyway. Boo.
Shoot 'Em Up
Not even James Bond tried this move — having sex while shooting people — although we bet Ian Fleming is turning in his grave for not having thought of it. The thing is, though, if this had been a Bond film, this whole ludicrous scene would have been carried off with a hearty sense of its own absurdity. In the hands of Michael Davis, however, it's less high camp and more flat-out ridiculous. Which, of course, makes it all the funnier.
The only thing sillier than this sex scene is the pseudo-rave footage with which it's intercut. What was it with turn-of-the-century sci-fi films and weird rave culture approximations, anyway?
"It's turkey time." Oh, boy, is it ever.
9 1/2 Weeks
The way that Mickey Rourke runs at the start of this scene is hilarious enough (he looks like a man dashing for the toilet after a questionable curry the night before), but it pales in comparison to what transpires next. There's the whole silly premise of being so consumed by passion that you have sex in a back alley — a practice that's usually something that men in stained raincoats pay for, to quote Jarvis Cocker — and then there's the fact that the two paramours appear to be right next to a part of said lane that's completely under cover, thus obviating the need to get it on in the "rain" (or, more accurately, the garden hose that the best boy is dutifully aiming in the two leads' direction).
This scene is tragically out of place in the most gloriously homoerotic movie ever made, and frankly, it's not convincing anyone that Leonidas isn't as camp as a tent city. And as for "Your lips can finish what your fingers have started"…
The all-time, undisputed champion of ridiculous sex scenes. Agent Cooper, how could you?!


No matter your new carpet is commercial or residential this investment requires proper care and maintenance which can be helpful to reduce ware out condition. Having a clean office can have a huge effect on your work atmosphere.
So you're ready to install new carpet. Don't overlook selecting the right pad, which can help extend your floor covering's life and protect your investment.
Our carpets are probably one of the most used parts of our homes. If you stop and think about it, we walk on it everyday as long as it is there. We get dirt on it through a lot of varying methods.
Carpet odor causes can be as obvious as pet stains and as subtle as the grease laden steam coming from your kitchen. They all invite bacterial infestation that leads to a smelly carpet.
When you look at the big picture, tile is one of the best flooring choices you can make: it is readily available, cost-effective, and offers versatile options.
The more carpet you have and the more dirt it's exposed to, the more likely it is that buying your own carpet cleaner will be a worthwhile investment says ConsumerReports.org.


Although this Ryokan is located in Shimoda, you won't be able to see the sea.
However, you will be able to spend time in the mountains and be surrounded by natural landscape of Japan at this inn.
The charm of this inn can be seen with the combination of the nature that changes with the seasons and 'Aitama no Yu', an autogenous source spring that boasts a large amount of hot water.
There are 14 rooms that have an open-air hot springs.
The bathtub is made of many materials such as Japanese cypress and rocks of Izu and are spacious.
Please visit the terrace after taking a bath.
This is the only inn where you can experience Aitama hot spring.
The landscape of the mountain adds a vivid color to the hot spring.
For the meal, not only seafood but also the produce of the mountain will be served to you.
There are also many sake and wine that matches with the flavor of the cuisine.
There is also a chiropractic, beauty salon, and after-bath relaxation area.
Please spend a relaxing time wherever you want.
Shimoda Central Hotel is the place where you will rediscover the attractiveness of the mountain.
Why not forget about your daily life and spend time in the mountain?
I took a 1-year-old child, but the next morning I was called by name, warmed baby food, brought in ice, and so on. I thought I wanted to go there again.
We stayed for the first time, but room, meal, bath, customer service, were all very wonderful and great satisfaction trip. Thank you very much. There are many rooms with open-air baths, but despite the weekends the large baths are open at night and in the morning, so it was very nice to enjoy the hot spring. We were able to make a reservation for esthetics on the day, and we were able to enjoy it. Atami, Izu visited several times, but Shimoda was the first time. What I particularly liked at the tourist spots I visited was the Ryugu caves and the sea of rice fields, which were very beautiful. Izu has a lot of attractions, enjoys a long season of cherry blossoms, and has good access from Tokyo, so I would like to visit there again. In addition, I would like thank you when you stay.
I sent an e-mail to subscribe to Satoyama ... I have no reply! What? Is not it better for you to reply as much as you do?
A public bath equipped with an indoor bath as well as an open-air bath. An alkaline based spring with our own source. You can enjoy the view while looking out the large window.

Fast, technical and refined, with large, trackside quarters that will blow your mind.
Joliet is a small city many have never heard of, located 45 miles outside the heart of Chicago. It is here the nav system guides me down a road that has the same name of my destination's street address, but leads me to believe that I've fallen victim to electronic folly. I pass by a couple of residential neighborhoods, over some railroad tracks and under a small bridge before hitting a road strewn with potholes that might possibly bend an exotic wheel or two, or maybe swallow a car whole.
The surroundings may have caught me off guard at first but then I began to recall, with a bit of nostalgia, the various tracks around Europe with similar infrastructure, revealing their well-concealed treasures only to those who know to look for it.
The Autobahn Country Club started as a fantasy dreamt up by four guys—Mark Basso, Mike Keck, Steve Wagner and Tim O'Donnell—in the manner that many ingenious ideas are concocted—drawn on a bar napkin following a couple of beers. Fortunately, these guys have tremendous follow-through, and with the help of 40 founding members (aka investors) erected what has become one of the preeminent private racetracks in the country.
Upon passing under a simple brick and steel archway, the neatly manicured green turf that covers every unpaved inch of this facility provides a stark contrast to the parched lands out west. This place is so vast, I can't spot a single corner of its over-3.5-mile track from this vantage point.
I met Steve at the front gate as he led me into the main paddock and clubhouse area where some of the regular members were already setting up for the day—and by "regular" I mean an entire motorcycle race team and their 18-wheeler rig. With the club's strong emphasis on safety, I undergo a mandatory check ride with Tony Kester, one of the track marshals with the authority to grant or deny my access.
The full track is split up into two linkable loops that give the Autobahn the flexibility to host weekly events without compromising the arrive-and-drive track time promised to its members—which by the way is six days per week between April 1 and Halloween. A dedicated half-mile kart track is also available for member use on weekends, as well as various days during the week.
Today we are running on the longer and more technical 2.1-mile South Loop, boasting 15 turns crafted by veteran track designer Alan Wilson—whose previous works include Barber Motorsports Park and Gingerman Raceway among others.
Following my approval to get on track, a friendly guy named Joel—one of the track regulars—has pulled up in a stunning red Audi R8 with silver sideblades and graciously offers to take me out for a lead-follow session. A more perfect arrangement couldn't have presented itself. I was soon having my ideal braking, turn-in and track-out points served up on a silver platter and reaping the benefits of driving lap after lap as Mr. Wilson intended. Only during the subsequent sessions, when I wasn't connecting the dots my new friend had laid out, did I realize how easy it was for impatience to creep in and turn a corner completely ugly. This is a track that requires some work to master, and as a member I'd have around 183 days a year with which to do so.
The cost of Autobahn admission is a one-time $35,000 initiation fee and $4000 annually, and unless I sign up for professional driving instruction, rent out the clubhouse for a private event, or purchase an on-site lot in which to build my own retreat quarters (like Bobby Rahal has), that's where the fees end. What could've easily been the deciding factor for me was back in the clubhouse, where I was surveying a simple but delectable menu put together by the track's own executive chef. A quick trackside lunch soon turned into the trip's best meal: a butter-soft ribeye steak topped with grilled onions and mozzarella, sandwiched between two halves of a French roll—Anthony Bourdain, take note.

'These places are like a godsend': a qualitative analysis of parents' experiences of health visiting outside the home and of children's centres services
Donetto, S and Maben, Jill (2014) 'These places are like a godsend': a qualitative analysis of parents' experiences of health visiting outside the home and of children's centres services Health expectations, 18 (6). pp. 2559-2569.
In 2011–2012, we carried out a programme of research to inform the Department of Health's strategy for strengthening health visiting services in England. Our research included a study of parents' views of their experiences with health visiting services in two geographical areas in England. Here, we draw upon data from this work to illustrate valuable aspects of family support outside the home reported in parents' accounts of their experiences of health visiting. We also explore the usefulness of relational autonomy as a theoretical lens for understanding the mechanisms through which this support operates.
We draw upon data from semi-structured interviews with 44 parents across two 'Early Implementer Sites' of the 'new service vision' in England. Our thematic analysis of the data was informed by grounded theory principles.
Findings and discussion
Parents valued being able to attend child health clinics and group activities outside the home; this helped them to avoid social isolation and to identify, choose and use the forms of advice and support that best suited them. We suggest that health visiting outside the home and children's centres services may also foster parental autonomy, especially when this is understood in relational terms.
Health visiting outside the home and children's centres services are an important complement to health visiting in the home; both dimensions of family support should be available in the community. Relational readings of autonomy can help illuminate the ways in which these services can foster (or undermine) parents' autonomy.

• promotes these green endeavours through the SLOVENIA GREEN brand.
GSST is managed by the Slovenian Tourist Board. STB develops the scheme, offers educational support, and also establishes promotional channels in the international tourism market for the promotion of Slovenia Green destinations and service providers. Its accredited partner, Institute Factory of Sustainable Tourism GoodPlace, has a licence to make assessments using the Green Destinations Standard and is a Green Destinations partner.
The Slovenian Tourist Board has pledged itself to sustainable development already in 2009 with the strategic guidelines and actions for sustainable development. In 2010, a Manual for hotels for implementation of sustainable business models was published and in 2011, a Partnership declaration for sustainable development was solemnly signed. In 2014, the national strategic guideline - Green Scheme of Slovenian Tourism - was adopted and in doing so, Slovenia has taken an important step towards the better sustainable development of the entire country. Businesses and destinations are now guided into switching towards sustainable, i.e. green, development.
The GSST is based on global criteria, is globally recognised, and enables international comparison. It operates on two levels, level of destinations, including protected areas, and level of tourism businesses (hotels and tour operators/travel agencies). The levels are closely connected - the destination motivates key interested parties to operate sustainably and carry eco-labels, since a green destination can only be credible if it has a critical mass of certified service providers.
Destinations, protected areas and businesses undergo sustainability assessment after which they are awarded a Slovenia Green label. Processes and conditions vary, depending on the type of organization. Destinations follow a highly structured process of workshops, on-line tool, and questionnaires, a combination of Green Destination standard requirements and European Tourism Indicators System, after which they are awarded gold, silver and bronze certificates. Since the GSST is process oriented, all awarded destinations must regularly report to the manager and submit a sustainability action plan. Businesses on the other hand are encouraged to obtain one of the 6 eco labels the GSST endorses: Bio Hotels, EMAS, EU Ecolabel, Green Key, Green Globe or Travelife, after which they receive a Slovenia Green label. Protected areas can choose between 2 international labels (Europarc charter, Unesco Man and Biosphere Programme) or decide to follow the process for destinations.
So far the story about GSST has been a story of success. Not only has the scheme been presented at numerous international conferences and occasions as the approach to systematically address sustainable tourism development, it has also won awards such as the National Geographic Destination Leadership award in 2017. Last year Slovenia underwent a sustainability assessment within the GSTC Destination Criteria and was declared the world's first green destination, achieving 96% compliance with the criteria.


On Sunday parents of students of Cosmopolitan Education Society School in Andheri (W) staged a demonstration, protesting against the management's decision to increase the fee and start a CBSE section. They also objected that the teachers were not paid as per the sixed pay commission despite the student fee being raised by the school management.
"The school was taken over by a new management a few years ago and the old Parent-Teachers Association (PTA) was dissolved. The current PTA acts according to the management, our problems are not heard," complained a parent. Two days ago, a board bearing the school's name mentioned that the CBSE affiliation was damaged in a similar protest. More complaints have come that the teachers hired for CBSE section are not qualified enough."We have been trying to talk to the management, but they refuse to meet us," said a parent.

Short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) are listed as persistent organic pollutant candidates in the Stockholm Convention and are receiving more and more attentions worldwide. In general, concentrations of contaminants in sewage sludge can give an important indication on their pollution levels at a local/regional basis. In this study, SCCPs were investigated in sewage sludge samples collected from 52 wastewater treatment plants in China. Concentrations of total SCCPs (ΣSCCPs) in sludge were in the range of 0.80-52.7 μg/g dry weight (dw), with a mean value of 10.7 μg/g dw. Most of SCCPs in the sludge samples showed a similar congener distribution patterns, and C(11) and Cl(7,8) were identified as the dominant carbon and chlorine congener groups. Significant linear relationships were found among different SCCP congener groups (r(2) ≥ 0.9). High concentrations of SCCPs in sewage sludge imply that SCCPs are widely present in China.

2020 National Budget set to stimulate growth, but concerns raised about debt expansion
The Zambia Institute for Policy Analysis and Research (ZIPAR) has welcomed the Government's 2020 budget which it says holds promise to stimulate the domestic economy and position Zambia for growth.
However, ZIPAR cautions that planting and nurturing seeds for growth in 2020 and beyond will not be easy in view of the anticipated difficult macroeconomic conditions, challenging fiscal and debt expansions, adverse climate change effects and urgent social sector demands.
Overall the budget presents commendable efforts to encourage growth in the private sector which will be key to achieving the additional 1% growth that is targeted in 2020. We commend the Government for abandoning sales tax, which has shrouded the private sector in uncertainty and delayed investments over the last year, in favour of reforms to VAT in line with various Stakeholder's recommendations. These reforms should be carried out in an orderly and transparent manner to reduce any further uncertainty on businesses.
Additionally, the Government's commitment to increase the allocation to dismantling arrears in the domestic economy to K2.3bn is essential to increase market liquidity and unlock private sector growth. It should be recognised that this contribution is just over 10% of the K20bn total stock of arrears – which is at risk of rising given the ambitious budget and increased borrowing. But this is a positive start to a long journey towards dismantling arrears.
The sectors targeted to drive growth are agriculture, tourism, mining, energy and manufacturing. ZIPAR has identified key enablers to make this ambition a reality:
Harnessing information and communication technology;
Operationalisation and commercialisation of the two National Airports to ensure benefits from investment are realised; and
Enhanced financial and insurance services.
However, the Government will also have to mind the risks of key growth decelerators hampering productivity and growth, particularly high input costs due to; the electricity shortage, rising costs of fuel, and labour cost escalation from the new Employment Code Act No. 3 of 2019. ZIPAR also notes that addressing the rising climate change related variabilities and resultant socio-economic and environmental effects will require more attention to climate smart interventions in the energy and agriculture sectors than what is currently provided for in the 2020 Budget.
Other aspects of the budget analysed by ZIPAR include:
Debt expansion: despite the impact of debt on the economy this year, the Government pegs total planned spending at K106 billion, increasing the size of the budget by 22% in 2020, resulting in borrowing a further K31 billion. Government has cast its lot in with an expansionary regime intended to boost the economy and put Zambia on the road to recovery. As such, Government needs to tread carefully to ensure that expansionary fiscal policy and debt accumulation yield growth rather than stifling it.
The Government should therefore be creative in managing the debt burden. With the lax fiscal consolidation displayed in the 2020 budget, it casts doubts on the likelihood of an IMF programme in the immediate future. More innovative options to constrain servicing costs need to be explored, such as: bond buy-backs; strengthening Ministry officials' capacities in debt management; innovative term financing of infrastructure; the use of Public-Private Partnerships; issuance of Infrastructure Bonds targeting retail investors; and the financing of infrastructure using proceeds from road tolls.
Executing the 2020 Budget: given the size of the budget, current fiscal constraints and the possibility of lower than expected growth, Budget execution in 2020 faces significant risks. This year, we have seen overspending on debt payments by 22% (as well as roads), which has squeezed other recurrent expenditure such as wages, education, health and social protection, led to a 25% increase in arrears to the private sector and crowded out the sinking fund which received no disbursements. With debt repayment projected to take up nearly one in three kwacha of expenditure, there is a risk that the Government's ambitions will similarly be frustrated.
Therefore, ZIPAR cautions the authorities to mind the critical gaps and potential slippages inherent in the design of public policy. A key requirement will be the ability of the authorities to stick to the script, ensuring to effectively and efficiently implement the policies and interventions as pronounced in the Budget.
This is based on the ZIPAR 2020 National Budget Analysis report titled: "Nurturing the seeds of growth".
ZIPAR is a socio-economic think-tank whose mandate is to conduct research and policy analysis. ZIPAR was established by the Government Republic of Zambia (GRZ) with the support of the African Capacity Building Foundation (ACBF).

Q: How to deal with Java warning popup? While running WebDriver automation scripts I came across a situation where it is trying to open a page which contain one segment with live camera (Made with Java applet). Once script reaches to this page - a Security Warning alert (with allow and not allow) shows up and blocks the execution process. Is this something that anyone faced before - actually I am looking for an option to block this security warning to get displayed on the page.
A popup is coming where i want to click on the "Allow". How to move the focus to the new popup window and click on Allow.
Can anyone please help me for the above problem?

A: I was having problems accepting the java applet "Allow"
My solution was to create a firefox profile that had the settings to always activate the plugin:
FirefoxProfile fp = new FirefoxProfile();

fp.setAcceptUntrustedCertificates( true );

fp.setPreference( "security.enable_java", true );

fp.setPreference( "plugin.state.java", 2 );

WebDriver d = new FirefoxDriver( fp );

Where plugin.state.java:
plugin.state.java = 0 --> never activate
plugin.state.java = 1 --> ask to activate
plugin.state.java = 2 --> always activate

This might get you closer...

A: Selenium uses a different firefox profile because Java was inactive for me and I did not have my firebug plugin in the Firefox browser Selenium launched. I would have to open another Firefox to use Firebug.
I found my default Firefox profile by searching %appdata% in the start menu then clicking on Roaming/ Mozilla/ Firefox/ Profile/ and then it gave my default profile name.
You can also open the firefox help menu (? logo) & click troubleshoot info... click Show Profile Folder
I then configured selenium to use my default profile so Java was enabled and Firebug was available in the browser Selenium launched:
Make sure that you use "/" in selenium even though it may use "\" in the windows  path location
fp = webdriver.FirefoxProfile('C:/Users/xxx/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/41s7nq9o.default')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(fp)
driver.get('www.stackoverflow.com')

where 41s7nq9o.default is the name of your default profile


For context, please listen to this short video.
So, self-mistrust is a point I have to start looking at. My tree of life interview video by desteni, was posted some 6 years ago, I have seen it couple of times but never took the initiative to investigate the mentioned points and correct myself accordingly. Well I am here now, it's never too late.
As a child it seems I have spoken the words "never trust anyone, they are all deceitful liars", I have said so as a reaction for being disappointed with my parents who didn't keep their words/promises causing much pain to me at that time. So, essentially by stating "never trust anyone ever again" I have effectively stated "I don't' trust myself ever".
Self-trust has been a major issue in my life, I could write a long list of events/situations indicating this pattern. I mean, sometimes I mistake that for fear, I suppose they are all related, as said in the video, there is fear to the point of petrification within the fear of being hurt etc, pretty terrible story, lol, so time to take it apart, self-forgive and let go, I mean what-else can I do? It's never too late to self-forgive, and never too late to correct myself. So, here I am, looking to write few blogs in relation to self-mistrust, and turning into self-trust. Stay tuned.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear people, within this I forgive myself for fear being hurt by people.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to experience hurt within myself when people break their promises or not keep their word. Within this I forgive myself for taking their actions/words so personally, not seeing/realizing what they have done unto me is NOT personal at all, it is what is existent within them, which they simply were throwing out, it was not specifically done unto me.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that my parents deliberately hurt me by not keeping their word/promises, within this I forgive myself for taking their actions/words so personally, not seeing/realizing it is NOT done unto me personally.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to give power to the 'feelings of hurt' and make myself less-than to it, less-than to my mind.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to see my parents as GODs and within that see myself as less-than to them. Within this I forgive myself for placing trust in their hands, instead of me standing as self-trust.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not see that I didn't realize nor had the understanding what was going on at that time, within this I forgive myself for reacting to them, and suppressing my anger towards them.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to react by speaking the words "they are all deceitful liars, never trust again" etc, in that I forgive myself for stating the statement "I don't ever trust myself".
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to create self-mistrust within myself as me.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear trusting anyone within the fear of being hurt again, not seeing/realizing here I am giving 'hurt' the power to exist, through my fear of it.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear trusting anyone, not seeing/realizing, how can I trust anyone when I don't trust myself? I see trust begins with self-trust, therefore I see self-mistrust cannot create trust.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to speak the words "never trust again", I realize I didn't know what I was doing or speaking back then.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to define trust as something I get from others accompanied with nice warm/fuzzy feelings.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to define trust as "when parents keep their word and promises", within this I see/realize how I have placed trust outside of myself, instead of standing me as self-trust.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to experience hurt and heartbrokeness when my parents didn't keep their word, within that I forgive me for seeing them as gods, whereas me as the little victim, within that I forgive me for accepting self-defeat, suppressed anger and self-inferiority. I realize they didn't know what they were doing either, and whatever was said and done, was not done unto me personally. Within this I forgive myself for taking others personally.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to connect 'hurt' to 'trust', and so doing allow myself to experience hurt as another breaks the shared 'trust'.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I should be able to 'trust' my family, within this I forgive myself for believe 'trust' should be automatic within the family. Not seeing/realizing as mind-consciousness system, each mind/being is geared for self-interest, so taking them personally is not cool, I realize their mind-set, so without any judgments, I understand where they come from. It almost looks like people have no choice but have to deceitful liars to survive in this world, until they understand/apply tools like self-forgiveness, self-correction etc, I realize 'trust' is not something I can expect from others, and within my own life, have I been a trusting person to others? I can easily list of moments where I broke the trust others had in me, even to the point of 'cheating'. So trust from others is not the issue, but self-trust, do I stand and trust myself?
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to demand trust from others, while I have not stood as trust for others or within myself. In this I see/realize I have used trust as a preacher's righteous hammer, to judge and condemn others while giving me the luxury to deceit others when and as it suits me.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to blame others when they break the 'trust' we shared, within this I forgive myself for placing trust in the hands of others.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to look for trust from others.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to like those people who are apparently 'trustworthy' because then I can rely on them, have a trusting relation with them, and can place trust in their hands.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe in the strange idea: "trust but verify", in that not seeing/realizing doubt already exist within that trust, hence it is not trust at all. If trust needs to be verified how could it be trust? WTF.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to doubt others but desire them to trust me. Within this I forgive myself for getting angry when others don't trust me, which I take it as an insult.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to feel insulted when others indicate to me that I am not within their 'trusted' circles.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to desire to be trusted by others, within this I forgive myself for desiring that nice warm/fuzzy feeling when others trust me, as it shows how great I am, as I can win the trust of others. Not seeing/realizing this is a ploy/plot in subtle ways, its manipulating people with 'trust'.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to blame and judge those who are apparently untrustworthy, not seeing/realizing they simply do not know what they are doing, nor do they have the understanding/tools how to develop self-trust. So how can I judge them?
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear trusting others because I fear getting hurt. Within this I forgive myself for creating self-defensive mechanisms for protecting myself by "never trust them again", in that inevitably ended up mistrusting myself.
I realize for trust to be real, there must be self-trust, without which trust could never be. In this I commit myself to develop self-trust through walking this process extensively, so that I can stand as a point of trust/self-trust within myself. I can trust myself first no matter what.
This is an extensive point for me, I mean, so many dimensions, angles, sub-points, events, memories to it, so I have to walk them all, step by step, take them apart. Slowly develop self-trust as who I am, me here, forevermore, unwavering, and self-trustworthy.

Carl August Brandt, ursprungligen Svensson, född 14 februari 1871 i Locketorp, Västergötland, död 13 februari 1930 i Stockholm var en svensk konstnär.

Carl Brandt målade landskapsmotiv, oftast i pastell, men han har även gjort oljemålningar. Han var i all sin produktion genomgående en romantisk landskapsmålare. Det var både sommar- och vintermotiv med röda stugor bland höga slanka tallar vid en insjö, det var kustmotiv med klippor och skär och det var fjällmotiv. Ofta visade han solnedgångar med orangefärgad himmel.

Biografi
Brandt var son till skräddaren Gustaf Svensson från Örebro och hans fru Anna Larsdotter från Kumla. Familjen bodde en kort tid i Närkes Kil, men var från 1872 kyrkobokförda i Örebro.
Brandt fick tidigt ta hand om sig själv och redan som tonåring var han målarlärling. Som 18-åring skaffade han en verkstad vid Vasatorget i Örebro och försörjde sig där som hantverksmålare, men han hade också börjat måla akvareller och pasteller som gav extra inkomster. Omkring 1890 tog han artistnamnet Carl Brandt, som sedan följde honom i kyrkböckerna hela livet.

År 1894 gifte han gifte sig med den två år äldre Ida Rudbeck av adlig familj. Makarna flyttade till Törebodatrakten 1899 och till Filipstad 1901. Carl Brandt var nu en populär landskapsmålare och utförde bl.a. väggmålningar i olja i Stora Hotellets matsal i Örebro ca 1900. De förstördes senare av en brand.

Paret bodde i Filipstad i nästan nio år och Carl Brandt var mycket produktiv som konstnär. Han arbetade i pastell, akvarell och olja. Han anlitades också från 1904 av flera vykortsförlag som vykortskonstnär. Vykortsskrivandet hade under några år ökat enormt och han åstadkom under sitt liv mer än 200 motiv på vykort i olika format.

Hustrun Ida avled 1910 och Carl Brandt flyttade från Filipstad till Stockholm. I Stockholm träffade han en elva år yngre dam, kassörskan Axelina Karlsson-Söderberg. De gifte sig i slutet av 1910 och 1912 flyttade de från Stockholm till Riddersvik, nuvarande Hässelby Villastad.  Från 1924 bebodde de en av glaskonstnären Simon Gate ritad villa med stor trädgård. Den ansågs vara den vackraste villan i Hässelby. Carl Brandt var road av Hässelbys försköning och trivsel och deltog i många lokala aktiviteter. Han utförde 1924 en stor tavla med vintermotiv som täcker stor del av en vägg i Hässelby Villastads biograflokal och ännu finns kvar. Brandt är representerad vid bland annat
, Örebro läns museum.

Carl Brandt avled av en gallstenssjukdom. Han begravdes på Norra Begravningsplatsen, men gravstenen är numera borttagen. Änkan sålde huset i Hässelby och flyttade efter ett par år till Landskrona.
