Education has the potential to change individuals' lives and fuel social transformation. There is a strong link between children's health, including their visual health, and the quality of their learning and achievement at school. This, in turn, affects children's future quality of life and economic productivity. School eye health programmes provide a unique opportunity to deliver comprehensive eye health services to school-going children.
The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that 43% of all visual impairment is due to uncorrected refractive errors. This amounts to 122.5 million people, 12 million of whom are children.1 A recent study demonstrates that programmes for the detection and treatment of uncorrected refractive error (URE) among school children are highly cost effective. 2
Comprehensive school eye health programmes are not just about URE, but can also have a positive impact on locally endemic diseases such as vitamin A deficiency or trachoma. School eye health programmes should also include identifying and referring children with other eye conditions such as strabismus or lens opacities. Health promotion and education in schools can reduce the spread of epidemic diseases such as viral conjunctivitis and reduce the risk of eye injuries. The eye health of teachers can also be addressed by detecting and managing any refractive errors, including presbyopia. The steps involved in developing a plan are shown in Figure 1.

Children's rights, the WHO and the UN Sustainable Development Goals
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) recognises that children have rights of their own: the right to health, including treatment of illness and rehabilitation, a right to education and a right to an adequate standard of living. Poor eye health affects the realisation of these rights. UNCRC provides a mandate for communities, civil society and governments to come together to address child eye health.
The WHO calls for activities in prevention, treatment and rehabilitation to promote eye health in children. These activities are also enshrined in several of the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals:
Goal 1: Ending poverty
Goal 3: Providing good health
Goal 4: Providing quality education
Goal 8: Ensuring economic growth through the provision of good jobs.
Challenges of current school eye health initiatives
Many school eye health initiatives are narrow in focus, do not involve ministries of health or education and are not integrated into other school health initiatives. Often, they do not provide periodic vision screening to identify new cases, nor follow up children previously identified with myopia (which can progress with age). These factors can lead to poor co-ordination, lack of ownership and affect the sustainability of programmes.
There has also been a lack of standard approaches to screening, referral, prescribing, dispensing and follow-up, and most programmes do not address the eye health needs of teachers. Many of these topics are addressed in the new Standard Guidelines for Comprehensive School Eye Health Programmes.3
Another challenge is the inadequate monitoring and evaluation of school eye health initiatives. This can lead to inefficiencies, with poor assessment of outcomes and impact. There is evidence that a high proportion of children given spectacles do not wear them for a range of reasons, many of which could be minimised or overcome by educating parents, teachers, the children affected and their peers. Spectacle wear can be increased by dispensing spectacles only to children who really need them (see article on p. 31) and by ensuring that comfortable, cosmetically acceptable spectacles are provided free or at a minimal cost. Several of these topics are addressed in this issue.

Components of a comprehensive school eye health programme
An ideal school eye health programme should be integrated into the broader school health programme and encompass the following:
Screening, referral and treatment
Correction of refractive error and provision of affordable, durable spectacles that are comfortable and look good.
Identification and referral of children with other causes of visual impairment
Identification, referral and treatment of common eye complaints in children, e.g. conjunctivitis
Identification and referral of teachers with visual impairment
Provision of reading spectacles for presbyopia in teachers, if required.
Health promotion and education
Health education to prevent locally endemic diseases in children, e.g. face washing to promote a clean face to prevent trachoma and/or good nutrition to prevent vitamin A deficiency.
Promoting a clean, safe and healthy school environment, e.g. growing vitamin A-rich foods in a school garden, collecting water for face washing and avoiding games with sharp objects.
Encourage children to take eye health messages home. They can act as 'case detectors,' identifying people in their community who need eye services. See www.childtochild.org.uk for more information.
The health education component of school eye health should be delivered by qualified eye care professionals, such as nurses or clinical officers, at a level that children can understand. The purpose of health education is to increase children's knowledge about the eye, how it works and what can go wrong (in simple language), and to tell them how they can keep their own eyes healthy. Ideally, this should be an integral component of the school curriculum.

It is desirable that the ministry of health provides financial support for programmes, including the provision of spectacles. If this is not possible, the average cost of refraction and spectacles should be kept affordable for parents.
Lack of trained eye care professionals is a major challenge in many low-income settings. The key to a successful programme is well trained and dedicated eye care personnel with clearly defined roles and responsibilities. There are several different approaches to delivering school eye health programmes; which approach is adopted largely depends on the personnel available (see Figure 2).
Ideally, refraction, prescribing and dispensing should be done in schools, as this improves children's access. If this is not possible, the next best approach is for refraction and prescribing to be done in the school, with dispensing outside: each child selects the frame they prefer in the school, and the local eye unit makes up the spectacles which are then taken back to the school.
Low power spectacles should not be provided, as they are unnecessary and will not be worn. This is a waste of resources and the programme is open to exploitation through unscrupulous prescribing. The article on p. 31 recommends prescribing based on improvement in visual acuity rather than the refractive error.
Young children do not have a well-developed bridge to their nose, and spectacle frames for children must be selected and fitted carefully. They must be cosmetically appealing, comfortable and robust enough to withstand normal wear and tear. The lenses must be able to withstand impact. Glass lenses should not be used. Plastic lenses are light, but can become scratched and should be replaced if badly scratched.
Figure 2 Different approaches to screening and service provision in school eye health programmes
The success of any programme depends on follow-up. Resources should be allocated to this and systems put in place to follow up all children who fail vision screening or who are found to have an eye condition. Follow-up may be needed after referral for refraction, to obtain spectacles, or for an eye examination at the local hospital or vision centre. Accurate and efficient record-keeping is essential, both by those who are screening and referring and those who are receiving referrals.
New guidelines

Alberta environment minister talks tough with B.C. on Trans Mountain pipeline expansion

In a speech to the BC Chamber of Commerce, Shannon Phillips highlighted her government's efforts to build a strong economy resilient to climate change—and repeated its threat to turn off the oil taps to this province
B.C. may be locked in a battle with its neighbour over the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, but Alberta got a warm reception last Saturday (May 26) at the BC Chamber of Commerce's annual general meeting in Kamloops.
In a lunchtime address hosted by the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, Shannon Phillips, Alberta's minister of environment and parks and minister responsible for the Climate Change Office, made her case for the oil pipeline project. Her remarks came days before federal Finance Minister Bill Morneau announced that his government is buying Trans Mountain from Texan energy giant Kinder Morgan for $4.5 billion.
Cutting to the chase
Phillips began by pointing out that B.C. and Alberta have much in common. Many British Columbians work in Alberta's energy sector, she said, and the two provinces share everything from a great provincial park system and a growing craft beer scene to a price on carbon and some of the country's lowest debt-to-GDP ratios.
"Those are very nice things, but I'm not here to talk about pleasantries. I'm here to talk about the problems that we have to solve together," Phillips said. "We all know that we have a large, looming problem before us, which is the Trans Mountain expansion."
Phillips then shared what she called the government of Alberta's perspective on the environmental side of the equation. "Our problem to solve is how to ensure resilient economic growth in the context of a carbon-constrained future, because climate change is real," she said. "We all share a common challenge because of our shared economy and our shared energy industry. We are all faced, as Albertans, as British Columbians, as Canadians, with the difficult challenge of how to address climate change."
The whole country suffers when oil prices fall, Phillips contended. "Certainly we saw that suffering in Alberta," she said. Phillips recalled layoffs during the recent downturn—and in the early 1980s, when her father, an electrician who worked on oil rigs, lost his job.
Alberta found itself in that situation because it was too dependent on one commodity at one price to one market, Phillips said. "The biggest thing standing in our way was market access and the economic benefits of getting full market access for our resources—making sure that our bitumen that is coming out of the ground right now is getting the kind of price that it needs so that people can continue to pull it out of the ground."
How to pay for a progressive agenda
One obstacle was that Alberta had a reputation for being a climate laggard, said Phillips, whose NDP government assumed power in 2015. "When we took office, we knew that we couldn't contribute and pay for what Canadians want without achieving market access," she explained. "But neither, too, did we believe that Alberta should get off scot-free without taking seriously its climate change obligations."
Over the next 20 years, Phillips said, Trans Mountain will generate $46 billion worth of benefits for the Canadian economy, including $5.7 billion for the B.C. government. "That's a whole lot of money for schools, roads, hospitals, child care, transit—all of the things that Canadians want."
Phillips listed her government's environmental efforts, which include a limit on oilsands emissions that caps them at 100 megatonnes annually, an economy-wide price on carbon and a country-leading commitment to methane reduction, she said. Among other investments, Alberta is also putting $1.4 billion toward cleantech, industrial efficiency, bio-energy and innovation, she added.
"Right now, what we are modelling is a 30-percent [carbon emissions] reduction off the business-as-usual case by 2030," Phillips said. Alberta projects that with carbon pricing, its total emissions will fall from 317 megatonnes a year—half of Canada's total by 2030—to 222.
"I have no problem saying of course there is more to do," Phillips said. "Where we differ is how fast we're going to get there and how we're going to get there. But we share the same values, where we want to have a good, strong economy as we ensure that we are resilient to a carbon-constrained future."
In her first piece of legislation for the government headed by Premier Rachel Notley, Phillips overhauled environmental monitoring of the oilsands, she said. "This environmental agenda has spurred economic growth, but it is important to realize that it has also been accompanied by a progressive social agenda. And you have to have a way to pay for that, and the way to pay for that is through a strong energy industry."
Phillips highlighted her government's public spending: $1.4 billion on social housing; $25-a-day child care; a child benefit that she said has lifted 300,000 people above the poverty line; and what she called the largest infrastructure build in Alberta history.
"So when the Alberta government's energy strategy is undermined, as it is being right now by our neighbours, they are not just undermining an energy industry or an energy strategy," she said. "You're not just undermining our ability to pay for an ambitious environmental agenda, the most comprehensive and ambitious climate policies on the continent. You are also undermining all of those advances that we have made with respect to inequality, a better life for kids, for vulnerable people, for those precariously housed, for Indigenous peoples, for women looking for child care."
Green chatter and buzzwords
Some people don't believe climate change is real, Phillips acknowledged. "On the other hand, there are people who I think that their definition of environmental progress is to choke the Canadian economy, punish Albertans and justify their lack of perspective or generosity with green chatter and buzzwords," she said.
"Both of those extreme sides lead us into that dead end...that created so much suffering for B.C. and Alberta families," Phillips continued. "They do more than that. They undermine investor confidence and certainty for our country and rob us of the resources to pay for the services we need. And they slam the door—this is very important as a message from the environmental side—they slam the door on opportunities in clean technology, in efficiency, in innovation. There is so much more we can do together, our two provinces."
Phillips called for B.C. to work with Alberta. "This current strategy on behalf of the British Columbia government is a losing one, not just because they continue to lose in the courts and not just because they are losing in the court of public opinion, but also because it is a losing strategy for all Canadians and for the goals that we all share as Canadians," she said.
"If I have one simple message today, it's enough of the playing of games and enough of the distractions that divide us," Phillips concluded. "It's time to act like Canadians, and let's not stop until we get the job done building this country together."
Turning off the taps?
In a Q&A session after her speech, Phillips was asked what she finds most frustrating about the B.C.-Alberta fight.
"First of all, there's a failure to understand what I was saying, that this affects working people on both sides of the border," she said. "There is a failure to understand how when a project is approved, it must move forward. If it has gone through all of its approvals in a lawful way, that has to mean something. Otherwise, this whole process is then a referendum on the ability to get any business at all done anywhere in this country."
The next question to Phillips: with polls showing that most people in B.C. support the Trans Mountain expansion, how can Premier John Horgan and Green Party leader Andrew Weaver be convinced to cooperate?
"I think we keep doing what we're doing, which is moving the needle on public opinion. Politicians are going to politician, and they're going to respond to what the public thinks and feels," she said. "Now, there are going to be certain folks who are elected on a little bit more of a narrow agenda, and that's not a governance agenda, necessarily; it's an activist agenda. If you're a minority coalition holder, that's your actual role. So I'm not interested in attempting to convince someone like Andrew Weaver about anything at all. But I think what is important is that piece of public opinion, particularly in the Lower Mainland."
Does Phillips think turning off the oil taps to B.C. will help Alberta's cause?
"It remains an option for us," she replied. "We've passed that legislation, and if we continue to see a situation where this project is being harassed out of existence, then will we use it. Albertans are paying a price every day and every year—millions of dollars in foregone revenue, in foregone economic activity. So that has to have consequences."

Deeney own-goal condemns Hornets to Eagles defeat
Troy Deeney own-goal the difference as Watford suffer Premier League defeat to Crystal Palace
By Harry Gray
Troy Deeney heads into his own net to hand Crystal Palace all three points. Picture: Action Images
At this stage of the season the smallest of margins can define campaigns and Watford will hope this narrow 1-0 defeat against Crystal Palace does not shape theirs.
An even contest at Selhurst Park was settled in the cruellest of fashions as Troy Deeney's own-goal gave the Eagles all three points.
Watford's fate is, of course, still in their own hands, but defeat against a resurgent Palace side now only three points behind them in the league leaves their season in danger of petering out.
The hosts were certainly the more attacking outfit, but defeat will be hard to swallow on a day where chances were at a premium.
The Hornets will have to lift themselves in time for the visit of bottom club Sunderland in two weeks' time.
After a 4-0 defeat at the hands of bottom of the table Sunderland last month, Palace have tightened up considerably in defence, conceding just one goal in their last three matches.
Two wins in their last two league outings had taken them a point clear of the relegation zone ahead of kick-off and they came into the match on the back of 2-0 victory over West Brom.
Watford, meanwhile, arrived at Selhurst Park on the back of three games without a win and looked disjointed and worryingly sloppy in defence when losing 4-3 to Southampton a fortnight ago.
Walter Mazzarri's response to that defeat saw Stefano Okaka, who found the net against the Saints, drop to the bench for the fit-again Daryl Janmaat, while Jose Holebas made way for Craig Cathcart.
The Italian's selection mirrored the line-up he opted for as the Hornets recorded a 2-1 win over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium as they started with a 4-1-4-1 formation, with a back four consisting entirely of centre-backs.
Clearly aware of the lack of pace in Watford's full-back positions Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha looked to run with the ball at every opportunity.
Palace's number 11 looked particularly dangerous and Cathcart, who struggled to deal with the similarly pacey Anthony Martial at Old Trafford, was fortunate not to concede an early penalty.
Zaha turned on the halfway line and raced towards the byline, breezing past the Northern Irishman on the way, and a push from Cathcart saw him tumble on the edge of the box, but Martin Atkinson waved away his protests.
The following half hour descended into a battle for dominance with neither side able to create a clear opening, before Palace enjoyed their best spell of the first half.
Unsurprisingly Zaha was at the heart of much of the host's best moments, teasing the Watford backline with incisive running.
The Watford defence stood firm, however, as dangerous crosses, first from the Ivory Coast international and then from Townsend, were repelled to ensure parity at half-time.
Mazzarri's side started the second half with renewed impetus and Etienne Capoue provided their first effort of any note just after the restart.
Dropping a shoulder some 20-yards from goal, the talented Frenchman eased past Mamadou Sakho and sent a curling effort dipping just over the bar.
What threat Palace did pose was still coming from their wingers and the pair combined with 65 minutes on the clock.
This time it was Townsend who caused havoc, darting past Miguel Britos on the right and sending in a cross which eluded Younes Kaboul and fell to Zaha, but he could only blaze over the bar.
Sam Allardyce's side would not have to wait long for a breakthrough though, and were gifted the lead moments later by the most unlikely of sources.
A foul from Sebastian Prodl wide on the left allowed Yohan Cabaye to whip a dangerous ball towards the near post which Deeney inadvertently headed in via the upright.
It was a cruel blow for the Watford captain, who missed out on an England call-up this week, but Palace were, in fairness, good value for their lead.
Chasing an equaliser, Mazzarri opted to introduce Isaac Success for Tom Cleverley with 10 minutes remaining and shift to three, with the substitute joining Deeney and M'baye Niang in attack.
The change brought little reward and, in truth, Watford never looked like getting back into the game on a day where they mustered just one shot on target.

Students compete in mountain biking
By: Brian Rathbone - Updated: 10 months ago
NEWPORT — History was made on Sunday, Sept. 9, not only in Newport but in the state of Oregon.
The Interscholastic Cycling League, a brand new cycling league to the Beaver State held its first inaugural race ever — and Newport was the chosen destination.
"It was an unbelievable even for Newport," said Bike Newport owner and event director Daniella Crowder.
Part of a four-race season, Newport was chosen as the first site to host the race that held 75 student-athletes. Once the course was deemed safe for middles and high schoolers to compete on, the course was ridden 157 times for a total of 471 miles with an elevation of 141,300 climbed throughout the Gnarnia.
In the coming weeks, the Newport team made up of sixth-graders to high schoolers — and still hoping to add bikers to the team of seven — will compete at Mt. Hood, Stub Stewart State Park and in Bend.
"It's been a dream of ours and many others to have a youth bike league," Crowder said. "To have it happen here in Newport is like a dream come true."
Riders of all experiences are welcome and encouraged by Crowder to join the team. Scholarships and bikes are available for interested riders who don't have the means for a bike. The team practices on Tuesdays at 4 p.m. and on Saturday mornings, typically at 9 a.m.

The Queen's lusty lecherous Lord Cupid: Foreign secretary Lord Palmerston is unmasked as an insatiable bedhopper in new series of Victoria - now THAT's Sunday night TV!
It's also true that they were only dimly illuminated by candles, and that an underpaid and often resentful staff offered little help in the way of directions.
But even if we accept that the future prime minister Lord Palmerston really did accidentally enter the wrong bedchamber on the night of a notorious incident in 1839, as he later claimed, it's difficult to explain away what happened next.
Locking the door behind him, the 55-year-old then foreign secretary dragged a piece of furniture across it and then attempted to force himself on the room's occupant, a 22-year-old lady-in-waiting Susan Brand.
The only defence of Palmerston's behaviour, later offered by Prince Albert's private secretary George Anson, was that he might indeed have been looking for another room that was occupied by Palmerston's fiancée Emily Cowper, the sister of his boss, prime minister Lord Melbourne.
For an unmarried couple to spend the night together would have been outrageous enough and, as everyone at court was well aware, Palmerston's relationship with Emily had began as an affair, conducted under the nose of her husband.
It was small wonder that after the lascivious Palmerston's death a quarter of a century later, the Queen would write that she had 'never liked him'.
But as has become clear in the popular ITV drama, Victoria, now in its third series, the monarch, played by Jenna Coleman, had to put her feelings aside, balancing the outrageous private life of 'Lord Cupid', as he became known, against his status as the most popular politician of his day.
The first episode of the new series was set in 1848. By then, Victoria, who became Queen when she was 18, had been on the throne for 11 years and Palmerston, played by Laurence Fox (who says his character is a cross between Boris Johnson and Willy Wonka) had been foreign secretary for almost two decades.
Palmerston's att-empted assault on a lady-in-waiting had been hushed up at the insistence of his now brother-in-law Lord Melbourne.
Using Britain's considerable naval strength to force other countries to agree to his demands, Palmerston's 'gun boat diplomacy' had achieved several notable successes, among them taking Hong Kong from the Chinese in the First Opium War of 1839.
As biographer Jasper Ridley explains, he was unapologetically patriotic and 'believed. . . that the British constitution and social system was the best in the world'.
The gambling and womanising 'Pam' was an adored man of the people — even though Harrow-educated Henry John Temple, as he was born in London in 1784, was the son of the 2nd Viscount Palmerston, an Anglo-Irish peer.
He succeeded his father in 1802 and, since his was an Irish peerage, he could serve in the House of Commons, becoming elected as the Tory MP for Newport on the Isle of Wight in 1807.
By the time he had changed allegiance to the Whigs and became foreign secretary in 1830, Palmerston had already bedded some of the most beautiful society hostesses of the day, including Princess Dorothea Lieven, wife of the Russian ambassador to London and a woman so skinny that the cattier gossips said she had 'the breasts of a skeleton'.
By 1810, the coded weather references with which he documented nights of passion in his journals were recording that he had spent 'a fine night in the garden with E' — in other words, he had moved on to Emily Cowper.
Born in 1787, the then wife of the 7th Earl of Shaftesbury was nine years her husband's junior. She was as vivacious as he was dull and, as her affair with Palmerston progressed, it was said that Frances, the youngest of her five children, was in fact her lover's.
Following her husband's death in 1837, and a socially acceptable two years of mourning, she and Palmerston were finally free to marry in December 1839.
Their nuptials came shortly after he was accused of attempting to force himself upon Susan Brand, but their love for each other appears to have been enduring as she supported him throughout his fractious relationship with Victoria and Prince Albert.
Palmerston was often at loggerheads with the royal couple, not least because of his refusal to consult with Victoria on foreign policy.
Following a dispute between them in 1852, Palmerston resigned as foreign secretary. But as Britain became embroiled in the Crimean War, Victoria realised that he was the only politician capable of leading the country to victory and in 1855, aged 70, he became the oldest person ever to enter 10 Downing Street for the first time, beginning the first of two terms of office as prime minister.
Peace with Russia was secured the following year and slowly Victoria came to an understanding with Palmerston, she and Albert realising that, of all her prime ministers, he had given her the least trouble over domestic policy.
To him fell the job of dealing with the grief-stricken Queen following the death of Albert in 1861, persuading her to meet with her ministers even when she felt she could not face them.
Despite his age and the strains of political life, he and Emily maintained what her son-in-law Lord Shaftesbury described as 'a perpetual courtship' at Brocket Hall, their home in Hertfordshire.
Not that Palmerston had changed his ways. When he died in 1865 at the age of 80, there were rumours about the nature of his passing.
Official accounts maintained that he had succumbed to a chill, but others suggested that he had died of a heart attack, sustained while making love to a parlour maid on a billiard table at Brocket Hall.
If so, it would have surprised nobody, a suitably scandalous end to a politician who, despite living in the supposedly prudish Victorian age, could have given the cheats and scoundrels who have entered Parliament in more recent decades a run for their money.


There are so many things we can blame… manipulation, an uptick in the economy, interest rates, Bitcoin, China, and even President Trump for delivering peace to Asia with his recent summits (N. Korea/Russia).
Pick one, because it doesn't matter. The fact is the gold market is in a downtrend, and it doesn't care about what we thought should happen.
Gold is hated, it's cheap, and it's in a downtrend. Two of those statements make gold a strong buy, but making 52-week lows now puts us in a situation where every buy is like catching a falling knife.
I have NO IDEA where gold will bottom: $800…$1,000, $1,225, pick a number. Nobody knows, and if they tell you they do, they're lying, probably trying to sell you something, or perhaps both.
The fundamentals for gold have honestly never been better, which is why I don't think we can avoid making regular buys here while gold is making 52-week lows.
The fact is that if we want to maximize our profits, we have to force ourselves to buy in situations like this.
To be clear, this is not a day trade idea at all. This is a 2- to 3-year position where we can buy low and sell at a sizable profit within 24 to 36 months.
If you want to hedge your position, we simply recommend a cash position and to tighten up on your precious metal portfolio.
Shorting the mining shares or buying these ETFs like DUST, almost never pay off unless you see a cliff dive in the metals, which is possible, but very speculative and risky to bet on.
Take advantage of this sale. We can't time it perfectly, but in our opinion, the downside is extremely limited and the upside is significant due to the underlying fundamentals for the precious metals.
Only consider buying if you can hold onto your position and can stomach volatility.
If you can't, just buy some gold coins and bury them in your backyard.
Editor's Note: When it comes to Keith Neumeyer, founder of First Majestic Silver and First Mining Gold, and Amir Adnani, founder of GoldMining Inc., in my opinion, you're not going to lose with these guys.
You may have to suffer through and endure the volatility of the resource sector, but the fact is these two entrepreneurs thrive during times like these. This is where they are at their best, as times like these are how billions of dollars of value are captured and created.

In a similar manner to my experience of watching World War Z (2013), the trip to see The Wolverine (2013) in 3D left me fairly unexcited. Although no worse than other blockbusters this year in terms of plot and story and although Hugh Jackman delivered a solid performance, it felt as if the 3D left me with nothing to write about. This leaves me with a pretty short post but I do want to frame the film within the context of contemporary 3D post-production conversions.
Like X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) the film both side steps away from the X-Men films and pre-dates their time frame by beginning with Wolverine's participation in WWII. The film starts with completely flat images of the Japanese landscape around the prisoner of war camp where Logan, Wolverine, is detained. When the subsequent overhead shots show Logan interned in a cell consisting of a pit dug into the earth, positive parallax depth cues combine with the perspective lines of the pit's walls to create a claustrophobic enclosure stretching away from the audience. This type of initiate depth is accentuated at a few other points in the film, particularly when close-ups on two characters in the same frame or in a series of closely linked shots use the added roundness of stereoscopy to emphasise the proximity of the characters. Yet apart from this, stereoscopic depth cues are limited or almost entirely absent throughout the film. The nuclear bomb that drops on the camp at the beginning of the film, and the subsequent debris and material that it creates, is contained within fairly conservative visual parameters. Even though there is a battle scene set within falling snow (increasingly ubiquitous in 3D action blockbusters set anywhere near cold landscapes) negative parallax is restrained. Understandably the film was careful not to replay 3D cinema's clichés by allowing Logan's metal claws to slash at audience members in the auditorium but it does seem as if it missed the opportunity to create interesting and dynamic visual fields in the auditorium space.
Although I have argued elsewhere that we should take a nuanced approach to understanding 3D conversions and that post-production stereoscopic effects are not necessarily a poor cousin to those shot in 'native' 3D, The Wolverine is a good example of a film that seems to have been designed in 2D with 3D added as an afterthought. Even editor Michael McCusker stated that the 3D process should have been integrated at an earlier stage. As an example of the negative effect of planning without 3D in mind, there is a tendency throughout the film to limit focus to either the fore, mid or background which negates the possibility for stereoscopic effects to reveal the depth relations between these planes. In a large number of shots, this focus is shifted mid-shot. While pulling focus is common in contemporary films using extensive shallow depth of field, in a 3D film it creates a strange kinetic sensation of movement in the frame. Considering that the objects in these different planes are relatively static and that the shift in focus between them is meant to act as a type of reveal rather than create visceral motion such as that found in the dolly-zoom, it seems as this effect is an unplanned artefact. The potential for 3D techniques to create new sensations of motion and/or dynamic interplay is something that could be hugely beneficial to certain films (particularly those with non-realist scenes). Nonetheless, new effects like this are likely to be overlooked if they are merely the result of a clash between a film that is designed and constructed for 2D but later updated to include 3D.

In this edition, Daido Moriyama reflects upon his relationship to another well-known Japanese photographer, Takuma Nakahira, spurred by his friend's recent passing in September 2015. The two had been acquainted for more than 50 years, and initially connected through both photography and the fact that they both lived in Zushi. Moriyama writes that "my awareness of his presence helped me self-reflect on my work in a rather relative way". Perhaps, then, the photographs he has selected to feature here, from bustling urban scenes and quieter backstreets in Japanese cities, to advertisements and people intently busy with their smartphones, is his tribute to Nakahira.

WASHINGTON — Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin forgot to fire himself despite promising to rid his agency of corruption and mismanagement, sources confirmed today.
"I'm taking this opportunity to right the department and remove employees who have served themselves instead of our nation's veterans," Shulkin told reporters, in between being fanned by aides and taking mouthfuls of fresh grapes, after an Inspector General report was released that criticized VA for mismanagement and financial distress.
The new report came just weeks after another IG report was released, which found Shulkin had taken a taxpayer-funded $122,000 vacation with his wife to Europe to take in the sights, watch tennis, and talk about veterans' issues for about two-and-a-half minutes.
Shulkin responded swiftly to Wednesday's IG report by firing a number of VA executives and consolidating the management of more than two dozen hospitals, although sources noted that Shulkin, 58, clumsily forgot to fire himself for the previous scathing IG report.
According to senior officials, the inspector general is currently preparing follow-on reports critical of VA management and the disability backlog, though they will be subsequently disregarded by Shulkin and various veterans' groups because nothing matters.
At press time, Shulkin was spotted at the VA headquarters cafeteria eating an exquisitely-prepared rack of lamb with a side of couscous that costed taxpayers $68,000.

Seth Pomeroy (May 20, 1706 – February 9, 1777) was an American gunsmith and soldier from Northampton, Massachusetts. His military service included the French and Indian War and the early stages of the American Revolutionary War. He fought as a private soldier in the Battle of Bunker Hill, but was later appointed a major general in the Massachusetts militia.

4 Revolutionary War
Private life[]
Seth was born in Northampton, Massachusetts, to Ebeneezer and Sarah (King) Pomeroy. His father was a prominent local citizen, and had been a Major in the militia. Seth became a mechanic and gunsmith, as well as joining the local militia in Hampshire County. He earned a reputation as one of the best gunsmiths in the colony.
Pomeroy married Mary Hunt (1705–1777) on December 14, 1732. They had nine children: Seth (b.1733), Quartus (b.1735), Medad (b.1736), Lemuel (b.1738), Martha (b.1740), Mary (b.1742), Sarah (b. 1744), A child born in 1747, and Asahel (b.1749).
King George's War[]
When Massachusetts undertook an expedition against the French in Nova Scotia, Major Pomeroy answered Governor William Shirley's call for volunteers. He was part of the expedition led by William Pepperrell that captured Fortress Louisbourg in Nova Scotia in 1745. He used his professional skills in support of Richard Gridley, the expedition's chief engineering officer. He reconditioned the guns captured from an outlying position after the French had spiked them and supported 46 days of heavy bombardment.
French and Indian War[]
In 1755 Lt. Colonel Pomeroy was second in command of the regiment led by Colonel Ephraim Williams. They marched to New York to support a move to capture Crown Pont.
While on the march, they were ambushed by a force of 800 French and Canadian troops, supported by 600 Iroquois warriors, and led by Baron Dieskau at the Battle of Lake George. Of all the commanding officers, Pomeroy was the only one to survive the battle, and in lieu of Williams' death assumed the rank of Colonel. Although suffering significant losses, they withdrew to the English camp at the south end of Lake George. There they built a hasty wall of wood and carts and made their stand, supported by cannon and additional forces under General William Johnson. The Indians and Canadians would not attack in the open. When Baron Dieskau was wounded, the entire French force withdrew for Fort Carillon (later called Fort Ticonderoga).
Dieskau was captured, and Johnson would build a more permanent Fort William Henry to protect the site.
Revolutionary War[]
Although a senior officer in the Massachusetts militia at the start of the war, Pomeroy had a limited role. He was, after all, nearly seventy years old. But when the Siege of Boston began in 1775, he was among the volunteers that went in support of it. On June 17 a British naval bombardment marked the start of the Battle of Bunker Hill. He borrowed a horse from General Artemas Ward and set out for Charlestown. When he reached the neck of the peninsula, he found troops piled up because the narrow strip was under fire from British warships. Giving the horse to a soldier to return, he shouldered his musket and marched through the barrage. He declined any command, but took a post at the rail fence, fighting with John Stark's 1st New Hampshire Regiment.
The next week, the Continental Congress named him a brigadier general in the Continental Army. Since his health was not the best, when difficulties arose about seniority, he declined this commission and served instead as a major general in the Massachusetts militia.
When General George Washington asked for support in New Jersey the following year, Pomeroy marched with his militia unit. He didn't complete the trip, but fell ill and died in Peekskill, New York. He is buried in St. Peter's Churchyard, in an unmarked grave. The churchyard is now part of Hillside Cemetery.
Honoring Seth Pomeroy in Hillside Cemetery is an estimated 26-foot high monument, being a large square base, a column, and a ball on top. Inscribed in a wreath on one side is "General Seth Pomeroy. Born at Northhampton, Mass., May 20th 1706. Died near this spot Feb. 19th 1777. Inscribed on another side is a quote from him dated February 11, 1777, at Peekskill, perhaps referring to his facing his last days: "I go cheerfully, for I a sure the cause we are engaged in is just, and the call I have to it is clear, and the call of God."

What kind of funny are you? How to make a speech funny
Delivering a Talk
As public speakers who aim to inspire, not just to "get through it", we want our audience to remember us for a long time to come and one of the best ways to make your audience remember you is to be funny (that's because neurologically we're more capable of learning when we're happy). But what if you're just not that funny? What if you try to make people laugh and all you hear is crickets? Or worse yet, in your desire to find out how to make a speech funny, you end up making your audience cringe?
Let's investigate how to be funny in public speaking. We'll start by looking at how not to be funny.
Let me introduce you to Cringeworthy Chris. Cringeworthy Chris has it all down pat. He's learned all the tricks and jokes. He's read the "How to make a speech funny" book, he's watched "How to make a speech funny" the movie and he's got the "How to make a speech funny" T-shirt. Surely, then, Chris should be funny?
Except... not. Cringeworthy Chris does leaves his audience feeling funny, but not in a good way. Using too many tricks & techniques he alienates his audience and either leaves the audience feeling cold, or feeling like they've been manipulated. Trying too hard to make a speech funny can leave a "funny" taste in the mouth and can lead the audience to that feeling of, "I don't really like that speaker... but I'm not sure why".
How to really make a speech funny is through authenticity. Not everyone is the same type of "funny". Many times we fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to other people and their brand of humour. Some people are natural joke tellers, some use body language and slapstick humor, and some dry wit.
Making a speech funny doesn't come in "one-size-fits-all". What makes you funny is unique to you and the way you observe the world.
So, here's the Ginger guide to making your speech funny:
Find your kind of funny: Focus first on what you find funny in life and learn from your own reactions to the things that make you laugh.Trust that you do indeed have a funny bone. As infants we laugh from 4 months old and all children us humour such as riddles and knock knock jokes, even slapstick humour even as far back as kindergarten. You're already funny, you just need to bring it out in yourself and your speech.
Don't take yourself so seriously. Think of embarrassing moments in your life, the major mess-ups, the times you just wouldn't make changes, and maybe even the time you tried to make a speech funny-and no one laughed but you. Instead of focusing on the sting of a wounded reputation, look to see the humour and how you can share that with your audience.
DO be self-deprecating and humble. Being approachable shows your audience that you've been through trials just like they have, that you're an authentic person. . Be sure not to put yourself down in a self destructive way. This just causes a painful experience for the audience and for you. Self mortifying doesn't make a speech funny, it makes it pathetic.
Strive to actively listen. Listen carefully to audience feedback and really hear them, understand what your audience is about. When you're busy focused on what the audience needs instead of yourself, you'll get a better sense of how to speak to others with humour. Being able to listen will also enable you to observe and speak about the joy in life – making your funny self more believable and empathetic.
Be authentic, be you. How to make a speech funny all comes from who you are. Trying to tell jokes when you're really a story teller will only lead to silent audiences and frustration. Don't be a Cringeworthy Chris. Find your funny.

Safeline Joins UK SAYS NO MORE Campaign
You are here: UK SAYS NO MORE > Blog > Safeline Joins UK SAYS NO MORE Campaign
We're so pleased to let you know that the brilliant Safeline have joined UK SAYS NO MORE as official campaign partners. Safeline is a leading specialist charity for sexual abuse and rape. Their work includes offering support to men, women, children and young people, those with disabilities, across a range of services. Find out more from them:
Safeline was set up in 1994 by victims of sexual abuse who wanted to help others. We started as a helpline in a spare bedroom and over twenty years later we have helped more than 25,000 people in their journey through rape and sexual abuse.
It was in 1989 when the first step towards Safeline being created was taken. Our founder, Di Shoreman, then Senior Social Worker for Stratford-upon-Avon Mental Health Resource Centre, first began to work with survivors of childhood sexual abuse. She found that many clients presenting with mental health problems had underlying issues of sexual abuse as children, not previously recognised. After listening to their stories, Di decided to establish a support group where clients could seek and receive more tailored support.
Safeline today
We now provide a range of services including:
Therapeutic Support Groups
Creative Therapies like Dramatherapy or Ecotherapy
Telephone and Online Counselling
Freephone Helpline and Online Support Services
Early Intervention and Prevention Projects
Independent Sexual Violence Advisor (ISVA) – providing support for those wishing to report to the police
Services are offered to men, women, adults and adolescents, who are survivors of abuse. Family members and friends of survivors can also access Safeline services across the whole of Warwickshire and surrounding areas. Our Helpline, Telephone and Online Support Services are offered throughout the UK.
Over the years Safeline has moved from home working into its own dedicated premises. It has gone from strength-to-strength, building its services portfolio and pool of staff and volunteers to meet increasing client numbers. Safeline listens to survivors in order to constantly adapt the services we provide to suit individual needs.
Services for men
1 in 6 men have been targets of rape or sexual abuse, that's 5 million men in the UK. Abusers don't discriminate – it can happen to any man, of any age, race, class or sexual identity. Our trained professionals provide a range of services to support men in working through their experiences. Safeline has over 20 years' experience in working with rape and sexual abuse and our research shows that the clients we work with report a significant improvement in their mental health and wellbeing, enabling them to regain control of their lives and play a more active role within their communities.
1 in 4 women are survivors of rape or sexual abuse, that's 8 million women in the UK. Safeline have over 20 years' experience of supporting women while they rebuild their lives. We work with female survivors of all ages, backgrounds and identities and can also offer support to the family and friends around you who have been affected by what has happened. No matter who you are or how your life has been impacted by these issues, please get in touch with us. All our services are free.
Find out more about Safeline over on their website.
