Established over 250 years ago, Finlays originated in Glasgow as a trader and manufacturer of cotton. During the second half of the 19th century, representatives were sent to India to plant tea and Finlays played an important role in the development of the industry there. Later, during the 1930s, the company expanded its tea business into Africa, establishing estates and production facilities which continue to form a major part of our business today. Finlays pioneered instant tea research, development and production in the 1960s, when the industry was still in its infancy.
Towards the end of the 20th century, cotton interests were replaced by financial services, onshore and offshore oil services, and a wide range of other businesses. By the early 1990s, however, we had reverted to concentrating on core tea and tea-related activities and we are today, an international company, principally focused on tea, although recent expansion has seen us move into rubber, flowers and fresh produce in Africa and Sri Lanka. As contemporary drinking patterns change and the enormous potential of tea as a healthy ingredient in other products is developed, we are at the forefront of producing and marketing tea extracts and aromas in addition to more traditional forms of processing. This is highlighted by significant recent investments in China and Kenya.
While Finlays continues to focus on its traditional agricultural activities, we have also expanded our various non-tea businesses, centred principally in Sri Lanka. These include the recent establishment of a state-of-the-art cold store facility in Colombo.
James Finlay Ltd is best known across the mercantile world for the production of tea. However, it was as a cotton trader that the founder of the firm established himself in Glasgow in the troubled years after the Jacobite rising of 1745.
James Finlay began his career in the family textile business, probably travelling with a pack-horse, selling cotton goods. By his death in 1790 he had established a small but respected and rapidly growing company, trading in cotton, including fine embroidered muslins. He had, by then, been described in a Glasgow directory as a manufacturer as well as a merchant. The removal of James Finlays head office from Glasgow to London in 2007 breaks the link with the mother city of one of Scotland's oldest businesses.
The nineteenth century saw the fortunes of the company advanced upon the world stage by two remarkable men. It was under James' second son, Kirkman Finlay, described by one historian as 'the leading capitalist in Scotland', that James Finlay & Company expanded into new markets in Europe, the Americas and India to become one of Scotland's greatest, overseas-based, trading firms.
Kirkman's initial move was to purchase three large spinning mills in west and central Scotland, at Catrine, Ballindalloch and Deanston. He was thus able to control the whole process, from the purchase of raw cotton in the USA to its finishing and marketing.
A true merchant adventurer, during the Napoleonic Wars Kirkman Finlay defied the Napoleonic blockades and the British embargo on trade through continental ports in order to sell cotton goods throughout Europe. He had by now established agents in Heligoland, Gibraltar and Malta, servicing more than 700 correspondents in continental Europe. Cotton goods were forwarded or, rather, smuggled along the Forth & Clyde Canal and then on as far as St Petersburg, the Mediterranean, the Levant, and up the Danube to Hungary.
From 1806, Kirkman Finlay opened branches in Charleston, New Orleans and New York. This completed the company's control of the full cycle, from the direct purchase of raw cotton through manufacture to sale. The same year saw the firm move into the Latin American market with the opening of a branch in New Providence in the Bahamas; this agency alone made £10,000 profit in its first year.
A passionate free trader, Kirkman Finlay used his influence as MP for Glasgow Burghs, as Lord Provost of Glasgow and as chairman of the city's Chamber of Commerce, to help persuade the British Government to break the East India Company's monopoly on trade to Asia.
With the East India Company's historic stranglehold loosened, in 1813 Kirkman and his fellow campaigner, John Gladstone of Liverpool, immediately fitted out ships. Three years later, Finlays Earl of Buckinghamshire was the first ship to sail from the Clyde to India. There, the success of the cheap cotton piece goods, packed as cargo makeweights, far outweighed that of the Western luxury items with which the vessel was stowed. With India's voracious demand for cottons confirmed by the Governor of Madras, a whole new market opened up. Profits from sales in India soon exceeded gross sales in all Finlays' other outlets in Europe and the Americas. Two young Finlay assistants set up an agency in Bombay in 1816; others soon followed in Calcutta and Colombo and elsewhere. Finlays also traded with China in tea and silks.
Nearly 20 years after Kirkman Finlays death in 1842, a second major influence began to make itself felt. In 1861, John Muir, who had joined the company in 1849, became a junior partner and began systematically to buy out the other partners. By 1883 he had become sole proprietor. Meanwhile, he and his cousin, Hugh Brown Muir, had revolutionised the activities of the company. The outbreak of the American Civil War in 1861 brought British textile mills to a standstill, obliging Finlays, among others, to find alternative sources of cotton. They looked to India. In 1865 Hugh Brown Muir re-established the Bombay office, reopening the Calcutta branch in 1870. In 1871 the firm opened a small London office.
John Muir made his first visit to India in 1871, setting up Finlay Muir & Co that year as a private business to act as agent for his own ventures, while the Glasgow firm continued to act as home agent, selling piece goods to Bombay and Calcutta. He opened a jute press in 1871 and a jute mill in 1873; their foundation, the start of a major interest in jute, marked a first move into new commodities.
In 1873 John Muir also moved into the infant tea industry, acting as agent in Calcutta for two small tea estates in Northern India, and then buying up other estates as they came on the market. He was one of the first to realise that tea estates operated best in large groups under central control, rather than as individuals, a management pattern that was to be adopted throughout the industry.
In 1882, he floated the private North and South Sylhet Companies, based in present day Bangladesh. By 1896, Muir owned tea estates throughout the Subcontinent. In addition to tea and rubber, a variety of other crops were also grown. In 1894, Muir bought a large tract of high altitude virgin jungle in the South Indian state of Travancore. Between 1896 and 1898, a reorganisation of the estates owned by Muir, or managed by the Finlay Muir & Co agency, resulted in the formation of The Consolidated Tea and Lands Co. Limited, The Amalgamated Tea Estates Co Limited, The Kanan Devan Hills Produce Co Limited and The Anglo-American Direct Tea Trading Co Limited, all of which were floated on the Stock Market.
John Muir set up London warehouses at Orient Dock and established his own tea brokers and tea tasters. He owned a controlling interest in a tea packing and confectionery concern, George Payne & Co Limited. By the 1880s James Finlay was Scotland's largest employer of overseas labour. By the 1890s, says The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Muir was the world's major stakeholder in the growing and marketing of tea. At his death in 1903 he had some 90,000 employees on the payroll in Britain and the Indian subcontinent.
Under John Muir, Finlays had maintained Kirkman's commitment to the production of cotton cloth in Scottish mills but its major theatre of operations had moved to the Indian subcontinent. Throughout the 20th century, Finlays also developed a string of successful agency businesses. One of the largest of these was the Clan Line for which, as a founding partner, Muir had secured all the agencies East of Suez.
In 1909 John Muir's son, Kay, converted his father's heterogeneous collection of businesses into a private company, owned by members of the extended Muir family. In turn, the new company held substantial interests in the tea and jute companies, some of which were wholly owned subsidiaries. The First World War saw Finlays making a modest profit from military staples: sandbags, khaki cotton cloth and tea. In 1924 Finlays became a public limited liability company and was floated on the Stock Exchange, the form in which it remained until the Swire Group took it over in 2000.
In 1926, Kay Muir instigated an important new venture for the firm, sending planters from India and Ceylon to open large tea plantations in Kenya and thus reinforcing Finlay's position as one of major tea producers in the world.
Tea, cotton and agency work continued to dominate until the 1960s when the British cotton industry threw in the towel and Finlays faced the inevitable in breaking the 200 year-long thread which bound its fortunes to the trade. The Catrine Mill ceased production in 1972, while the Deanston Mill had already been converted into a whisky distillery in 1965. A reorganisation of the Company's principal tea interests in 1976 saw a number of these becoming wholly owned subsidiaries while others were sold out with the Group. In 1983, Finlays finally divested itself of its Indian tea estates, when its shareholdings were sold to Tata's, with whom the company had been in partnership for some years.
Towards the end of the 20th century cotton interests were replaced by financial services, onshore and offshore oil services and a wide range of other businesses. By the early 1990s Finlays had reverted to concentrating on its core tea and tea related activities. Today, Finlays is an international company, principally focused on tea, although recent expansion has seen us move into rubber, flowers and fresh produce in Africa and Sri Lanka. As contemporary drinking patterns change and the enormous potential of tea as a healthy ingredient in other products is developed, we are at the forefront of producing and marketing tea extracts and aromas in addition to more traditional forms of processing. This is highlighted by significant recent investments in China and Kenya.
While the Company continues to focus on its traditional agricultural activities, it has also expanded its various non-tea businesses centred principally in Sri Lanka. These include the recent establishment of a state-of-the-art cold store facility outside Colombo.
In keeping with its 250 year tradition Finlays continues to expand by seeking opportunities which will benefit shareholders, employees and stakeholders alike.
A substantial number of historic Finlays documents and photographs are held in the archives of Glasgow University's Department of Business History.

The idea of dinner rolls has sadly become a baking & pastry arts tradition of the past. What once accompanied most meals is now mostly saved for holidays and very special occasions. But dinner rolls don't have to be complicated. This version is about as simple as bread can be. If that didn't convince you, they're also full of delicious herb and garlic flavor. Need we say more?
1. Place lukewarm water in bowl and add yeast, sugar, flour, tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, then salt.
2. Allow to bench rest covered until the dough doubles in size.
3. Round into rolls. Place on parchment. Allow to proof until 1.5x the size (cover with plastic wrap if at room temp or uncovered at 80F proof in oven) and bake at 375F for about 12 min until internal temperature is 185-190F.
4. Remove from oven and brush with garlic butter and sprinkle with kosher salt.

America's Got Talent Finalist - Mandy Harvey!
We are beyond excited to have Mandy Harvey as our Featured guest for this years Interdisciplinary Integration Symposium!
Mandy will be presenting, "Sensing the Rhythm: Exploring Music without Hearing"
I encourage you to read more about Mandy and all the incredible endeavors shes a part of on her Website!
"A PRI Approach to Chiropractic Alignment of The Spine", was presented by Ron Hruska on March 10th at the ACA Rehab Council! The two days prior to this presentation were as significant as the topics being discussed. What culminated as a room full of Chiropractic Doctors Blowing up a Balloon, started with collaborative discussions revolving around concepts such as rotation, orientation, respiration and, perhaps most prevalent, alignment of the spine. Coincidentally these concepts aligned themselves well with what was already being discussed by other vendors, presenters and most importantly Students.
After recently attending the APTA Combined Sections and then two months later this conference, it is apparent that the desire to collaborate and integrate among professions is at an all-time high! The students of these organizations are approaching their careers with an Integrative mindset and an overall interest in collaboration. Ron enjoyed discussing the future of this integrative approach with each of the student chiropractors in attendance and was able to show the powerful potential that PRI has within their profession. The group from Keiser University had a strong student presence and a few poster presentations even discussed topics such as the "Zone of Apposition" and Respiration as primary concepts! It was so awesome to see this PRI activity occurring without previous knowledge or awareness of its incurrence!
On the second day we were met by PRI Faculty member Dr. Robert "Skip" George, which allowed us to strengthen the Link between the Director of our Institute, a Physical Therapist, and the Chiropractors in attendance. Skip is a walking Reference Center of clinical knowledge and experience, and his input within our discussions was unprecedented. PRI truly is a common language that can be used and utilized by us all, not just one group or another. This particular group of Rehab professionals understood that long before our arrival.
They were not only excited and welcoming of our Institute but embraced the collaboration and encouraged it within their own organization. It was quite frankly refreshing to be a part of. With Ron's presentation falling on the last day of this conference we were excited to see how many attendees stayed around to hear the culmination of Ron's career. Skip gave a wonderful introduction about his relationship with Ron and this Institute to over 60 filled seats! PRI objective testing and core concepts were strengthened and the use of a few Non-Manual techniques allowed the group to appreciate the ability to integrate it into their daily practice.
Thank you to President Dr. Jeff Tucker, and everyone at the American Chiropractic Association Rehab Council for inviting us to this symposium. I would encourage anyone that appreciates this Science to strongly consider reaching out to an integrative minded Chiropractor in their area to collaborate with, converse with and possibly be challenged by, in order to strengthen the relationship between us all! We are excited for the future growth and collaboration between our organizations, and are hopeful that your patients and clients will see a direct increase in their results!
Interdisciplinary Integration Symposium Approved for 15 IAOM CE Hours!
We are excited to announce that next month's Interdisciplinary Integration Symposium, "Airway Oscillation: An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Production of Voice, Airflow, and Resonance Frequency Breathing" has been approved for 15 IAOM CE hours. If you or anyone you know is a certified Orofacial Myologist, you will not want to miss this years Symposium! Please contact us at 402-467-4111 with any questions you may have, or visit our Website for more information!
Jen and I had the pleasure of returning to the APTA Combined Sections Meeting this year in Washington, D.C. Years past have provided us great discussions with both Physical Therapists and Physical Therapy Assistants as well as Students who are seeking these professions. This year once again proved the value of our attendance and allowed us to inform many individuals interested in the science of Postural Restoration. It is so re-assuring and invigorating to be able to discuss our science with those who may not have been exposed prior to attending.
The Combination of both PT students and seasoned Physical Therapist's provided a myriad of conversations and allowed us to connect with both sides of the spectrum. Many faculty members from various institutions and organizations asked passionately about our science and wanted to be better at introducing it to their students. Many students asked passionately about finding a PRI Clinician in their area for mentorship and clinical experience as they complete schooling. Interests in specialization areas continues to grow and we were excited to discuss our Affiliate programs in Pediatrics, Geriatrics and all others with those who find interest in these populations.
Shortly after a discussion regarding our PRI Integration for Fitness and Movement course we were surprised to see a familiar face come across our booth! Little did we know Julie Blandin was in attendance and literally ran into us amongst the crowd. What a great surprise!
Although running into a PRI faculty member was unplanned, we were lucky to have several PRC's and PRT's reach out to us as they learned of our stay in the area. On day 2 of the conference we received another surprise as our dear friend and PRT Navin Hettiarachchi sent us a text. "I don't know how but I have found 3 tickets for you to tonight's game!", we had discussed possibly meeting up with Navin but due to the Golden State Warriors coming to town we all thought it would be difficult to find tickets. Although we loved our first NBA experience it was perhaps more fun to see Navin in action with the team. He is a true gift to any organization, as his smile is infectious and his care for his players is unmatched. They are lucky to have him and we are lucky to call him our friend and have him in our PRI Family.
We were also able to meet up with PRC Heather Carr, who has been part of the PRI Family for many years. It was great to see her and to meet her husband Jan, as they provided us with local recommendations and things to see. Heather continues to introduce PRI to many others and we are so grateful for her support. Our last evening included a dinner reservation with PRI Faculty Louise Kelly and her husband Bruce and it was such a great way to finish our weekend. Bruce and Louise met in graduate school and it was a true pleasure to take a walk down memory lane with both of them. Although the food was great the conversations shared and laughs that were had truly made our last night in DC special.
Thank you to all everyone who made this conference a success. The science of PRI continues to grow and each conference we attend makes it apparent that word of mouth is still one of the best ways to connect and share our passions with others. Thank you in particular to Navin, Heather, Julie and Louise for going out of your way to spend time with us. PRI has a way of connecting people and it was great re-connecting with each of you!
Congratulations to the PRT Class of 2019!
We are excited to introduce and congratulate our Postural Restoration Trained (PRT) Class of 2019! PRT is the result of completing multiple advanced PRI courses, demonstrating a thorough understanding of the science through completion of the PRT application, and successfully participating in practical and analytical testing. This past weekend, four professionals earned the designation of Postural Restoration Trained (PRT) under the direction of Ron Hruska, Neil Rampe and Jennifer Platt.
The Postural Restoration Institute® established this credentialing process in 2011 as a way to recognize and identify individuals with advanced training, extraordinary interest and devotion to the science of postural adaptations, asymmetrical patterns and the influence of polyarticular chains of muscles on the human body as defined by the Postural Restoration Institute®. The PRT credential is available to Certified Athletic Trainers, Certified Athletic Therapists, Exercise Physiologists and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialists who have completed the course requirements, application and testing process. With the addition of this class, there are now 54 PRT professionals throughout the U.S and Internationally.
PRT credentialed athletic trainers, strength and conditioning coaches and exercise physiologists offer a unique approach to physical medicine and fitness called Postural Restoration®. This approach addresses underlying biomechanics which can often lead to symptoms of pain and dysfunction. All mechanical influences on the body that restrict movement and contribute to improper joint and muscle position are considered, examined, and assessed. Techniques are utilized to restore proper alignment of the body while proper respiratory dynamics are considered. Management encompasses prevention and lifetime integration for long-term successful outcomes.

We are excited to introduce SYMBA! (Synchronized Movement of Bilateral Asymmetry) As many of you may be familiar with the Pelvis Models that are frequently utilized within the PRI community, you may also begin to see the use of our newest collaboration with the team at SAWBONES. This articulated Ribcage is fully functional in providing visual feedback to your patients or clients and allows many PRI concepts to be demonstrated. We have been working over the past several months to develop this model which allows movement in all three planes!
The photos Included below show some of the many prototypes that were created between our staff here at the Institute and the team of engineers at SAWBONES in Vashon, WA.
This image shows the initial prototype (Left) which quickly progressed to the smaller size.
Sizing and designing of this model required creating a new mold to achieve the desired dimensions which was made from a newly created resin that allows the model to bend and rotate. Initially the spinal column was in a solid state and a new mold and material was again designed to allow flexion and extension of the spine to occur. The team at SAWBONES is top notch and although many of these requirements were difficult to achieve they never gave up and continued designing until these outcomes were met.


It is amazing how fast time passes. We have now completed three weeks in this session and have begun the fourth. Last week we celebrated the 150th anniversary of Kansas' statehood. Amongst the ceremony at the Capitol, something that I felt was very special was the singing of "Home on the Range" on the House floor. Did you and your family participate in any celebrations on the 150th birthday of our great state?
The main focus of this session continues to be addressing the $550 million state budget deficit and repairing the Kansas economy. The first step in addressing the budget comes in the form of House Bill 2014 which freezes the state budget for the 2011 fiscal year. The bill, as presented by Governor Brownback, makes approximately $120 million in cuts, orders several funding transfers and would create a $35 million surplus in the State General Fund for this fiscal year. This week the House Appropriations Committee held hearings and began working on amendments to HB 2014. Look for the bill to make its way out of committee soon and onto the House floor for a full vote sometime in the next week.
Simultaneously, the Senate is working on its own version of the budget bill through a similar process. Once the House and Senate pass their respective versions of the budget, three representatives from the House and three from the Senate will meet in a "conference committee" to negotiate differences and agree on the final budget bill. This product returns to the House and Senate for each chamber's vote of approval. If passed by both, the budget finally makes its way to the governor for his signature or veto.
Many constituents have contacted me to express their concern over the restructuring of the Kansas Arts Commission (KAC). As we continue to face astounding revenue declines we must find a way to restructure government while focusing on providing essential services. In this pursuit, we must ultimately determine whether programs under consideration preserve a "core function" of government. To provide an example, with the amount of money saved by restructuring KAC, we would keep 60 developmentally disabled children on our state wavier program – providing them the care they desperately need.
The Governor's plan to restructure the commission as a non-profit is a viable option. The State of Vermont has successfully adopted a non-profit structure for their arts commission and several other states are contemplating similar proposals. The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), which provides federal funding for the KAC, has threatened that federal money may not be available as a result of this action. However, the enabling legislation for the NEA has also been thoroughly reviewed and no requirement for state funding to match federal funding has been found.
While this will continue to be an issue of concern, please rest assured that I am committed to ensuring the arts do not suffer. After carefully reviewing the situation, I am confident that the restructuring of the KAC will allow the commission to remain whole.
This week Attorney General Derek Schmidt warned of a new scam from an organization calling itself National Credit Solutions. The reported scam contacts individuals by mail or telephone to inform them they owe late fees to Hollywood Video. Most of those contacted have not owed fees to Hollywood Video.
If you receive a call or mail from National Credit Solutions please consider reporting it to the Consumer Protection Division in the Office of the Attorney General at 1(800) 432-2310 or www.ksag.org.
Tweaks to the funding formula have been one of topics heard in the Education Committee. These suggestions were derived from the Interim Education Committee. The basic changes should create a revenue neutral situation. One change if passed would make slight adjustments to create a linear transition to the high density at risk weighting. This would keep wide variances in this weighting funding to be found from year to year.
This committee held a hearing on the late-term abortion/parental consent bill. Upcoming hearing include a bill to repeal in-state tuition to illegal immigrants.
We are set to hear testimony on a bill on licensure qualification of pawnbrokers and precious metal dealers.
Keep updated with the Legislature's website!
Please feel free to contact me! I look forward to the feedback that you supply and your views on the issues before us.


If someone accepts shabbos after pelag hamincha, can he make kiddush and eat, and pray maariv later (after tzeis)? Can this be done lechatchillah? Is his kiddush, al netilas yadayim, and birchas hamazon counted towards the 100 brachos for friday or shabbos?
Yes, this arrangement is fine, and can be done lechatchillah.
Sources: According to a number of rishonim, including ra'ah and ritva, the optimal way to accept tosefes shabbos is by making kiddush (or by davening). This clearly indicates that it is fine to make kiddush and to eat the meal before davening. The single source that mentions this should not be done is Maaseh Rav, citing from the Vilna Gaon, but this ruling is not cited in other halachic texts, and many families with young children make kiddush early in order to allow the children to participate, and daven after or half-way through the meal. The berachos count towards the 100 berachos of Shabbos.
Not what you're looking for? Browse other questions tagged The Shabbat routine and the meals 100 brachos early kiddush meal pelag or ask your own question.
According to both the Arizal and the Vilna Gaon, this should not be done.

Two Mission Sisters served in many places
November 24, 2020 / NZ Catholic contributor / No Comments
by Sr CARMEL COLE
On Sunday, November 1, Sisters Linley Trower and Muriel Kivell celebrated 60 years of profession as Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions.
Many sisters gathered from across the country to celebrate with the people of the Napier parish at St Mary's church in Taradale. It was very fitting to celebrate in the parish where Sisters Muriel and Linley are faithful parishioners.
Sister Muriel was professed as a Sister of Our Lady of the Missions in Christchurch on August 15,1960, and from then onwards she was known as Sister Mary Benedict for a number years.
She taught in primary schools in Hamilton and Ellerslie and then moved into teaching at secondary level at Sacred Heart Colleges in Hamilton and in New Plymouth where she was the deputy principal. During these years of teaching she gained her Teachers Certificate, a Diploma in Teaching and a BA Degree in Mathematics and Science.
During the 1980s, Muriel was a member of the Sisters' Leadership Team and she gave remarkable assistance to the Mission colleges as they tackled the requirements of integration and the need to be vested in Trust Boards.
In 1998, she was appointed as the episcopal vicar for schools in Palmerston North diocese and was responsible for primary and secondary schools until 2006. During this period, she was awarded a papal Benerementi Medal in 2004 for her dedication and contribution to Catholic education in Palmerston North diocese. Then two years later her contribution and commitment to Catholic Schools and Education in New Zealand was acknowledged with her reception of the Laureate Award from the Catholic Education Office. An Award presented to a – "Distinguished Contributor to Catholic Education".
In 2008 she was asked to go to Rome and take on the role as General Bursar for the sisters' congregation. At the end of her six-year term in Rome, Sr Muriel returned to live in Greenmeadows, and went back into the classroom to teach her favourite subject – Maths. She has also become involved in the parish RCIA programme – preparing adults for baptism.
Sister Linley was professed on the same day as Sr Muriel, and she was given the name Sister Mary Gilbert.
Over the span of 23 years, she taught in many classrooms: schools in Christchurch, Ashburton, Petone, Napier, Kaikoura, Lower Hutt and New Brighton. She was a teaching principal for 17 of these years.
In the 1980s, Sr Linley moved into pastoral work in some of the more remote places in the country; Motueka, Kaikoura and Rangiora. It was Kaikoura where she spent the longest period of time, 11 years, serving the people in whatever way was needed. Kaikoura captured her heart and she loved the people of the close-knit community and the beautiful scenery.
In 2004, Sr Linley moved to live at Saint Joseph's Maori Girls' College, Greenmeadows, and had become a familiar figure in the parish, and indeed the community of Taradale. She is renowned for the delicate tapestries which she works so meticulously.
The Mass at Napier was followed by a morning tea in the parish centre, where everyone gathered to offer thanks to Sisters Linley and Muriel for their 120 years of service to the Church.

Are you able to spot the flaw in any argument? Do you love logic and objectivity? Are you known for your ability to seek out and squash bias? Are you a truth-seeker?
If so perhaps you're a Head Life Lens or know someone else who is a Head, one of the 8 Life Lenses™.
Head Life Lenses™ are known for seeing the world in an objective manner and in fact (pun intended) place a lot of value on objectivity. Head Life Lenses™ have a wide variety of sources of information – from favourite websites, blogs and books to newspapers, magazine and experts. They're interested in truth. Head Life Lenses™ take a measured, logical approach to problem solving.
Their strength is their sword of truth, which is laser sharp – they spar with others using logic, information and arguments. They can be trusted to seek out bias and subjectivity and slay them.
A trial lawyer friend of mine is a case in point. He can argue something inside and out, dispassionately proving his point with information, facts and logic. His way with debating is something to behold. I'm sure he could debate a point he didn't believe and sound just as sure and logical.
Does the idea of matching wits with him make you want to step up to the plate? Are you comfortable using logic to prove a point? Do you see the world as objectively as possible? Do you rely on what is tangible to guide your decisions? Do you pride yourself on being unswayed by emotion? If so you may be a Head Life Lens™.
If you reacted vehemently to the above and shudder at the thought of a world that relies solely on facts without emotion, intuition and subjectivity then you're likely the opposite of a Head Life Lens™ which is a Heart Life Lens™.

A:
Ya traté compilando con g++ mian.cpp , cliente.cpp, etc. ¡Parece ser que nada me funciona!

Los archivos *.cpp se compilan en objetos intermedios, msvc los compila en NombreDeArchivo.obj y generalmente los compiladores populares en plataformas Linux compilan en NombreDeArchivo.o. Para generar el archivo intermedio debes pedir que se compilen todos los archivos *.cpp, parece que en tu comando falta ColaCliente.cpp.
Pero compilar no es suficiente, de nada vale tener el objeto intermedio si no lo enlazas al generar el ejecutable, después de compilarlo hay que llamar al enlazador. Te aconsejo que intentes compilar y enlazar por separado para ver si algún paso está fallando:

g++ -c cajero.cpp
g++ -c cliente.cpp
g++ -c colaCliente.cpp
g++ -c main.cpp
g++ -o programa cajero.o cliente.o colaCliente.o main.o

The seventh edition of Criminological Theory: Context and Consequences builds on its prior success with updated coverage of criminological theory and a fresh look at policy implications. The new edition continues to offer a rich introduction to how scholars analyze crime in a clear, accessible text which moves readers beyond commonsense knowledge of crime to a deeper understanding of the importance of theory in shaping crime control policies.
This thoroughly revised edition covers traditional and contemporary theory within a larger sociological and historical context, and offers diverse coverage of major criminological theories includes perspectives ranging from biosocial theories to cultural criminology. The development of theories is covered within a broader sociological and historical context. The authors explore policy implications and applications. Chapter-opening photos of key theorists help motivate the discussions that follow, while a unique chapter on white collar crime is indicative of the comprehensive theory coverage offered in this book.

University confirmed as founding member of world's first independent space science mission
'Twinkle' satellite aims to answer some of humanity's greatest questions
Blue Skies Space Ltd. has confirmed that scientists from fourteen universities across the world, including the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan), have joined its first space science mission, Twinkle, as the initial group of founding members.
The founding members, also including institutions from North America (Vanderbilt University, Ohio State University, University of Toronto), Asia-Pacific (Nanjing University, National Tsing Hua University, University of Southern Queensland) and Europe (Ludwig Maximilians Universität, Cardiff University and UCLan).
These founding members are now working together to design a powerful scientific programme ahead of the satellite launch, making this a truly global and innovative space science collaboration. They join five other institutions who have also secured telescope time for their research teams.
Once launched into low-earth orbit in 2024, the Twinkle satellite will deliver visible and infrared spectroscopy of thousands of targets, enabling Twinkle members to produce transformative research on exoplanet atmospheres, solar system objects, stars and stellar discs as they aim to answer some of humanity's greatest questions.
"The Twinkle Space Mission offers some very exciting scientific possibilities. I am particularly fascinated by the prospect that we will be able to study the atmospheres of planets around other stars. "
— UCLan's Professor Derek Ward Thompson
Twinkle will provide structured science surveys which will operate at a large scale, providing more than 70,000 hours of observational data during its lifetime.
UCLan's Professor Derek Ward Thompson, an expert in the fields of star and planet formation, said: The Twinkle Space Mission offers some very exciting scientific possibilities. I am particularly fascinated by the prospect that we will be able to study the atmospheres of planets around other stars. This offers the opportunity to tell whether a particular planet is earth-like and potentially habitable or not, thereby increasing our ability to assess the likelihood of life elsewhere in the Universe."
Twinkle is the first in a series of scientific satellites from Blue Skies Space. Each will combine the expertise of an international science team with proven satellite and payload suppliers, to deliver an advanced satellite at a fraction of the cost and time of a typical space mission of this complexity. Membership is open to scientists from all backgrounds and experience levels and available within days.
Professor Giovanna Tinetti, Chief Scientific Officer, Blue Skies Space, added: "Exoplanet research is an exciting and fast-growing international endeavour. We are delighted to see that Twinkle's collaborative model is attracting scientists of all career stages from around the world."


The government set out their definition of British values in the 2011 Prevent Strategy. These were reinforced in Sept 2014 due to recent global events. These new regulations will sit alongside the requirements of the Equalities Act, which also applies to all types of school.
At Kings Meadow children will encounter these principles throughout everyday school life. They are embedded in our own school values and are a part of our ethos and approach to working with pupils with complex social, emotional and/or mental health needs.
Pupil voice is important at Kings Meadow School and is highly valued. Our version of a school council, the School Crew, is made up of at least one representative from each class who have applied for a place within the group. They have assigned roles and responsibilities to different members after reaching a consensus together based on recognising individual strengths and abilities.
Older pupils have engaged in a project around the development of their own country which has involved them in electing a government and included specific learning about democracy. Learning experiences related to the national general election are planned.
Our pupils will encounter rules and laws throughout their entire lives. At Kings Meadow we consistently model and teach the necessity for rules and we have a whole school system of rewards and consequences. We have a strong ethos of celebrating success, no matter how small, and of teaching our pupils how to 'put things right' when a rule has been broken. We believe in using restorative approaches to doing this and regularly review our practice to ensure it is appropriate to meet the very individual needs of our pupils.
Our children are educated about rights and responsibilities through assemblies, as part of the curriculum and through the specialist practice used by the staff to support them in managing their social and emotional needs. There are many opportunities for our children to take on a range of responsibilities from regular small jobs helping their class mates and adults to bigger roles such as the Junior Librarian and members our School Crew.
Whenever possible, our pupils are encouraged to make their own decisions in accordance with their age, ability and level of maturity and to reflect on these decisions with adult support. We ensure appropriate boundaries are in place and educate our children to make safe choices, using our Kings Meadow Behaviour Curriculum to support this aspect of our work.
We are a strongly values based school and promote mutual respect through our ethos and everyday practice. PSHE and assemblies provide valuable opportunities to help the children understand this important value. We teach the children about fairness and, as a school that strongly believes in the value of physical activity and learning outside the classroom for our children, often do this through PE whilst teaching the rules and penalties that are part of sport. We also teach our children that fairness in our school is not about everyone having the same but everyone having what they need.
As part of our School Development Plan, we are developing stronger links with the wider community and buddy and mentor schemes, both internally and externally.
Our RE curriculum provides opportunities for the children to learn about all the major faiths, with an emphasis on identifying similarities and celebrating differences. We are developing wider links with the local, national and international communities and encourage visitors from other cultures as part of our curriculum enrichment.


OH, FOR THE FIRST SIGNS of spring! Robins, ramps and snowdrops work their numerous charms. Then, alas, a crop of pesky little violets quickly o'er-spreads the newly verdant lawn, a sight that sends some to the garage for the trusty broad-leaf weed killer.
It might be better (and certainly healthier), however, to leave the herbicide on the shelf and just eat the tiny invasives, leaves and all.
Pretty, profuse and nutritious, violets abound not only in yards but in marshes, meadows and woodlands throughout the Hudson Valley. The common blue violet, Viola sororia, native to New York State, is likely the culprit taking over the lawn. Though the flower's scent is barely detectable, a half cup of its newly unfurled, heart-shaped leaves, which have the pleasant flavor of a mild lettuce, packs as much vitamin C as three oranges. The sweet violet, Viola odorata (also called the English, wood or florist's violet), is more fetching and more fragrant than its humble American cousin. Like many other cultivars, it has escaped the confines of garden and greenhouse and naturalized in the American wild.
Carpets and clusters of violets can be lovely in natural settings, but the delicate architecture of a lone violet flower is best appreciated up close, preferably on a plate. The dainty, five-petaled flower—two petals up, two petals sideways, one petal down—seems designed to adorn salads, canape's, open-faced sandwiches, omelettes and rum babas. Embedded in an ice cube, a coquettish violet can make a simple cocktail seem more like a flirtation.
Local chefs attuned to using local, natural ingredients don't shrink from using violets. At Valley Restaurant at the Garrison, in Garrison, Executive Chef Vincent Mocarski makes a broth with dehydrated violets as the base for a spring risotto, which he garnishes with pea tendrils and fresh violets. "The stock is a nice color—sort of blue meets pale purple," Mocarski notes.
Though Mocarski laments that his source for violets (a former sous chef who raised bees and grew violets) has disappeared, his luck may be changing. Agnes Devereux, owner of the Village TeaRoom, in New Paltz, uses the app from food distributor Farms2Tables (farms2tables.com) to procure her produce, and she detects a boomlet in edible flowers. "I can buy bachelor buttons, johnny jump-ups, broccoli blossoms, arugula flowers, radish flowers," she says.
Devereux also plucks violets from her yard and uses them to decorate her remarkable cakes. "One year, the violets came early—April 3—at the time of my daughter's birthday," Devereux says. "She wanted to make her own birthday cake, and she made a maple cake with maple buttercream. I said, 'You can candy your own violets!'"
Brian Kaywork, a lecturing instructor at the Culinary Institute of America, in Hyde Park, and the chef at the school's American Bounty Restaurant, also hunts for violets in the early spring. Violet leaves, along with nettles and garlic mustard, go into a "foraged greens" soup. "I like working with greens," Kaywork says. "If a plant is edible, I immediately start thinking about the roots and greens—I don't want to fall into that chef's trap of using just the best part and leaving the rest." In the depths of January, Kaywork was tinkering with recipes for violet-green agnolotti with morels, and baked oysters with violet greens and cream.
Violets have many affinities, including bourbon; Bordeaux wine blended with petit verdot grapes; pistachios, hazelnuts and walnuts; oranges and lemons (including the zest); blue cheese, fresh goat cheese and aged white cheddar; apricot jam and blueberry preserves; beets, red onion and asparagus; petite lettuces and baby spinach; and hard-boiled eggs.
In the classic reference Larousse Gastronomique, the entry for "violet flower" suggests that the blossoms, "when newly opened, may be used to decorate salads or in stuffings for poultry or fish." Traditional violet jelly and violet syrup require lots and lots of violets; recipes for these are readily found.
Incidentally, despite its name, not all violets are violet; they also come in shades of white, yellow, mauve and pink. Happily, you can grow your own. The reputable Logee's (logees.com) offers both the storied Marie Louise as well as the practical sweet violet online.

Blue Is the Warmest Color (Guest Review)
This review is by Kristine Downing, an old friend of mine who doesn't typically read comics. When she last visited me, she noticed my copy of Blue Is the Warmest Color and expressed interest in reading it. I asked her to share her thoughts, and she sent the below.
Blue Is the Warmest Color by author and illustrator Julie Maroh is a graphic novel first published in French in 2010 by Glenat as "Le bleu est une couleur chaude". The English-language edition published in 2013 by Arsenal Pulp Press was initially slated to be released under the title Blue Angel. However, much of the artistic tension established with the original title would be lost, and it also helps to maintain consistency with the award-winning movie adaption coming out this fall.
Set in France from the mid-1990s to the end of the first decade of the new millennium, the graphic novel paints an authentic love story between two young women against a backdrop of social and political change. The story, much of which is told in flashback through the diaries of the main character, Clementine, captures the complexities of a girl questioning her sexuality and her same-sex attraction to Emma, as well as all of the other "normal" aspects of being a teenager, such as friendships, school, college plans, difficulty with parents, etc. While this storyline is not new, it is effective in making the statement that attraction and love have no boundary, that societal boundaries are artificial and create fragmentation were none should exist. The honesty and beauty of the storyline and panels adeptly illustrates a teen's confusion with sexual attraction, same-sex desire, the eventual intimacy she experiences, and the personal/societal pressures she faces after being thrown into adulthood. That makes Blue not just an important graphic novel within a lesbian/gay context but within the art form itself.
I found Maroh's use of color (or lack thereof in many places) intriguing from both an artistic and storytelling perspective. The title itself stands in opposition to normative perceptions. Blue is not a warm color. Blue becomes warm, a symbol for connection, sexual desire, and love (Clem's diary, Thomas' shirt, Emma's hair and eyes, fantasy/dream sequence, condom wrapper, etc.). The sparing use of color throughout the novel accentuates what color is used, especially the color blue. Most of the illustrations stay within a cool color palette, with the exception of several panels where yellow/orange are used to depict coolness when Clem and Emma grow apart.
Quite simply, what we are taught is cool can be perceived as warm; what we are taught is wrong can be perceived as right. Experience is subjective. These juxtapositions work effectively to challenge our learned perceptions, ultimately reinforcing the storyline challenging traditional societal norms and notions of attraction, love, and commitment. If there is an overarching theme to be found in this graphic novel, it's that sexuality and love are fluid, the most intimate experiences we can share with one another, and that attempting to make sexuality a fixed location from either a hetero- or homosexual perspective places arbitrary limitations on the human experience.
My only criticism of Blue Is the Warmest Color (and it is minor) are a few word choices I found slightly awkward. The only two examples are Emma saying "my dear heart" and during a love scene, Clem says, "My God, her sex, her sex, naked against mine", which made me wince because it felt a bit cliché. Word choice in these instances may have more to do with what the translator chose versus the original in French.
Overall, I enjoyed the book and recommend it. I am also very interested to see the movie adaption and if the film's "graphic" lesbian love scenes push the boundaries of cinema or tend more toward straight male porn fantasy. Based on the author's objections to the film, I am inclined to think the latter.

2019 marks the 200th anniversary of the Custom House at Salem Maritime National Historic Site. A custom house has been collecting taxes for the Federal Government in Salem since 1649. During the Colonial period, Salem's custom house supported the British government. Following the Revolutionary War and the establishment of the U.S. Customs Service in 1789, collections began to support the American government.
The Old Custom House, located on Central and Essex Streets housed the Customs Service from its construction in 1805 to 1807, and later from 1813 to 1819 prior to the opening of the Derby Street Custom House.
The 1819 Custom House on Derby Street once housed the offices of U.S. Customs officials while the adjacent three-story Public Stores building was used as storage facility for merchant cargo before duties were paid. Wares included textiles, ceramics, artwork, and spices from around the world. Salem's spice trade produced goods like pepper and cinnamon, which along with silk, porcelain, Indian cotton textiles, and ivory proved to be some of the most valuable items processed in the Custom House.
Varying levels of U.S. Customs officials worked in the Custom House under the Collector of Customs. Assisted by the Deputy Collector, the Collector of Customs would manage all of the port's records. Merchants and captains bringing goods into Salem would visit this office to pay any required duties and submit forms like ship enrollments or crew manifests.
Shortly after gaining independence from Britain, custom duties comprised 90% of the federal budget. 8% of the budget was supported by duties paid by merchants, who praised the new Customs Service for creating a standard for regulations throughout the U.S. Before additional government agencies were created, the Customs Service was also responsible for veterans' benefits, trade statistics, lighthouses, immigration, and search and rescue at seas.
The architecture of the Custom House includes elements commonly seen in government buildings with exterior columns, intricately carved woodwork, and high ceilings. Though the building was used by the U.S. Customs Service until 1930, the interior furnishings primarily reflect late 19th century styles.
The eagle seen atop the Custom House today is a fiberglass replica of the original 1826 wood carved piece. Following years of restoration work, the original eagle was moved inside the Custom House where it is on display today, and the replica was added to the building's façade in 2004. The original eagle was hand carved by local craftsman Joseph True, and was purchased by the Custom House in 1826 for $50.
While touring the offices of the Custom House, visitors today can view the office of Nathaniel Hawthorne, who worked as a Customs Officer while writing The Scarlet Letter. The introduction to his 1850 novel is titled "The Custom House," and it reflects Hawthorne himself as narrator's thoughts share his feelings on living and working in Salem in the mid-19th century.
The Custom House is located in the Salem Maritime National Historic Site at 160 Derby Street and is open to the public for free, self-guided tours Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00 pm-2:00 pm. The site's outdoor exhibits and grounds are open 24/7, year-round, and hours for the site's historic buildings vary by season. Learn more and plan your visit at NPS.gov/SaMa.

Changes to United Way funding for Montgomery County agencies remains uncertain
By Jamie Swinnerton, Staff writer
Published 2:44 pm CST, Thursday, January 2, 2020
Volunteer Missy Herndon carried gifts economically disadvantaged homebound seniors for the holidays in December 2018, in Conroe. Over the next several years, United Way of Greater Houston will be making changes to its funding as it has decided to focus on organizations and causes that address the barriers that keep people in poverty even as they are employed. As of right now, it is unclear what this change will mean for local organizations in Montgomery County that have been receiving annual funding from United Way. Currently, United Way invests in 18 agencies and 38 programs in Montgomery County including the Montgomery County Youth Services, Meals on Wheels of Montgomery County, and New Caney New Horizons, among others.

Over the next several years, United Way of Greater Houston will be making changes to its funding as it has decided to focus on organizations and causes that address the barriers that keep people in poverty even as they are employed.
Earlier this year the results of a national study by the United Way were released documenting the conditions and struggles of asset limited, income constrained, employed (ALICE) families across the country. Based on these findings, the United Way of Greater Houston created Second Century Vision, a plan to more intentionally fund organizations that will bring the most help to ALICE families.
As of right now, it is unclear what this change will mean for local organizations in Montgomery County that have been receiving annual funding from United Way.
Currently, United Way invests in 18 agencies and 38 programs in Montgomery County including the Montgomery County Youth Services, Meals on Wheels of Montgomery County, and New Caney New Horizons, among others.
The results of the study break down the financial hardships in each county, documenting what it costs for basic needs, the number of struggling households over time, how many families with children are struggling, differences in ALICE households by age, race and ethnicity of ALICE households, the impact of firm size on employment, and what jobs are paying across the state.
The ALICE numbers for Montgomery County, using 2016 point-in-time data, show that 22 percent of county households fall under ALICE with 10 percent of county households living in poverty.
In 2016, costs for household necessities far outpaced the Federal Poverty Level. As calculated in the ALICE study for Montgomery County, in 2016 the annual household survival budget for a single adult was around $22,680, while the Federal Poverty Level was $11,880, and for a four-person family, the annual budget was $61,404. while the FPL was $24,300.
"There will be organizations — and the United Way has been very up-front about communicating about this — that in our next strategic vision may not exactly fit the model, but we don't know exactly what that's going to look like yet," said Melissa Young, chair of the Montgomery County Regional Council and board member for the United Way. "There's a lot of work being done in committees to decide what this whole roll-out looks like, but it's more of a big-picture approach right now, where we're looking at the overall community and where we can make the biggest impact."
United Way is not looking for local organizations to change their mission to fit into United Way's Second Century Vision, Young said, but are asking them to look strategically at what they are doing because many of them are already doing the work that United Way is looking for.
"Once we, through this data, understood what the profile of these people looked like, we believe that we have a model that really could help move people out of that situation which would be generational change," Young said.
Meals on Wheels of Montgomery County receives a little less than five percent of its annual budget from United Way funding. The average age of Meals on Wheels clients is 80 years old and lives on a fixed income and would fall under the asset limited part of ALICE, said Summer Day, the organization's executive director.
"We're more of the safety net program, so I'm hopeful that our funding will continue and we will be able to serve the population that we serve because they are vulnerable and don't have the ability to go out and get a second job," Day said.
Emergency and safety-net funding will not change, Young said. Annual funding is what will be under the microscope.
Angel Reach is a Montgomery County organization that works with people aging out of the foster care system and are homeless, as well as families in the area that will take in young relatives who otherwise would have been put into the foster care system.
Jean Radach, Angel Reach's Executive Director, said the populations the organization works with fit into the ALICE demographics so she does not foresee that the organization will be hindered by the coming funding changes.
"I really admire what United Way is doing, because they are trying to identify a population that is struggling and that is really ready to make changes, but they just need a little bit more assistance," said Jean Radach, executive director of Angel Reach.
About 20 percent of the funding for Angel Reach's programming comes from United Way.
When all is said and done as Second Century Vision becomes fully realized over the next several years some organizations may see less funding and some may see more. At this stage, it is unknown how the numbers will fall.
