JEEP COMPASS: an SUV that gets right to the point
IT looks like Jeep have got the point with their all new Compass…..
Its predecessor didn't really set the world alight when it launched into the soft roader sector of the UK market, but the latest version seems a bit more intent on putting the tribulations of the past firmly in the past.
Those of us with long memories and dates from a past century on our passports will possibly think of American GIs smoking huge cee-gars and hanging onto the top of the windscreen for dear life at the mention of the word Jeep.
It was the practical, utilitarian vehicle of the 1940s that helped to rout Johnny Bosch and help win the second world war for the Allies. A brand that gave us – and the Germans – the WW2 Willys…..
Well, there's nothing utilitarian about the Compass circa 2018. You can have diesel or petrol, two or four wheel drive and a reasonable choice of trim levels. An ideal shopping basket when you're up against the likes of the best selling SEAT Ateca, Nissan Qashqai, Skoda's pretty decent Karoq, and let's throw the Mazda CX-3 in there too. All very tough competitors, and all pretty decent to look at.
So is the Compass. It's got those trademark squared off wheel arches that make a Jeep very much a Jeep, and there's a distinctive chrome line running from the windscreen pillar up and along the roofline before plunging down and round the lower edge of the rear screen. A nice touch and very noticeable, as is the distinctive Jeep grille.
It's got a softer feel to it that the Renegade or even Cherokee and maybe there's no real link back to the heritage of the cars that have gone before. Little touches like the etching on the screen of the Renegade depicting the car on a steep slope, for instance.
But then this is a car aimed at the UK and European markets and has to appeal to a differing set of emotions when people wander into a showroom. They want something they can recognise as a family vehicle, and not necessarily something that's at home in the wilds of Arizona.
And that's why you'll find a relatively modest Fiat group powerplant under the bonnet in the shape of the 1600cc MultiJet, which is hard to fault for its efficiency. A combined 64.2 is quoted and it's quick enough through the gears to keep up with any fast moving traffic you might be in. Get first gear out of the way and it pulls well up the range and for a modest sized diesel is not too audibly encroaching at cruising speed.
It's a car that teaches you to use your indicators. Otherwise the lane departure warning system builds resistance into the steering. You can turn it off (I did) and it has a habit of making the steering go momentarily light and vague when you don't want it to. And that's at any time. Switching the system off alleviates that, as it does on many cars, like my own Ateca.
You can pretty well guarantee you won't hit anything in a Compass as its early warning system of bleeps start chattering away when you're within a nautical mile of anything solid. Even humans, and there are plenty of solid ones where we lives….
It's well equipped in Limited trim, and while the sat nav screen might not tell you what your dog had for dinner on Easter Sunday 10 years ago, there's still plenty of useful and informative info to access on it.
FOR: not one of the mainstream
AGAINST: up against the best
FASTFACTS: Jeep Compass 2WD Limited; £28,995; 1598cc four cylinder MultiJet, 120hp, 320Nm; six speed manual; top speed 115mph, 0-62mph 11secs; fuel – urban 54.3, extra urban 70.6, combined 64.2; CO2 117g/km; will it fit the garage? 4394/2033/1644 (l/w/h).

Prince Albert II, the ruler of Monaco
'Why DOES the Prince of Monaco refuse to see our son …
Prince Albert Acknowledges Son
NICOLE COSTE ET SON FILS ALEXANDRE, FILS D …
Born out of wedlock to an African mother
Prince Albert II, the ruler of Monaco, has acknowledged that he is the father of an illegitimate mixed-race child. The mother is 33 year-old Nicole Coste, an air steward from Togo. The child named Alexandre was born in Paris on August 24, 2003.
French magazine Paris-Match, broke the 'love-child' story in May, showing pictures of Prince Albert cradling a baby and carrying affirmations from Nicole Coste that the child was the result of a five-year affair with the Prince.
Coste, said she decided to come forward because she 'was afraid Albert would go back on recognising his son… I had a very strict Catholic upbringing and for me it was a disgrace to not be able to tell my family who is the father of my child.'
This is not the first time a little colour has come into the famous royal family. Prince Albert's great grandmother was none other than Marie Juliette Louvet, an Algerian cabaret singer who bore Prince Louis II of Monaco, his only child Princess Charlotte, also out of wedlock.
'Article 10 of Monaco's constitution specifies that only 'direct and legitimate' descendants can assume the throne — which would excludeAlexandre. The prince however could adopt Alexandre in the same manner his grandfather Prince Louis II did in 1919 with Princess Charlotte and so make him heir to the throne.
Heir to the throne or not the Prince's acknowledgement of his son will ensure that Alexandre will be well provided for.

Their son below Alexandre Coste Grimaldi.
She was the mother of his only child, Princess Charlotte of Monaco She gave birth to their daughter, Charlotte, in Algeria on September 30, 1898.
Because Louis was unmarried and without an heir, the Monegasque throne was likely to pass to a distant cousin, the German Duke of Urach. In order to avoid this, Louis' father, Prince Albert I, had a law passed recognizing Charlotte as Louis' heir and part of the sovereign family. However, this law was later ruled invalid under earlier statutes. So, in October 1918, another law was passed allowing for the adoption of an heir with succession rights. On May 16, 1919, Louis legally adopted Charlotte, giving her the Grimaldi surname. Her grandfather created her HSH Princess Charlotte of Monaco, and Duchess of Valentinois. Upon Louis' accession in 1922, Charlotte became Hereditary Princess of Monaco. Source:Princess Charlotte of Monaco, Duchess of Valentinois …
Prince Albert has several children, but since they were born out of wedlock, they are not eligible for the throne.

Princess Charlene's parents, Lynette Wittstock, Mike Wittstock.
Prince Rainier III was Europe's longest-serving monarch and head of the 700-year-old Grimaldi dynasty which was founded in 1297 when the Genoese François Grimaldi and his Guelph supporters seized the fortress in the corner of the south of France. By the time of Rainier III's death, it had changed beyond recognition to become a playground for the super-rich and one of the world's most favored tourist destinations. It was proof of his astute political decisions as, without its prince's efforts, the principality may have been absorbed by France or lost its internal sovereignty to outside interests.
He was a direct descendant of Josephine de Beauharnais, the first wife of Napoleon Bonaparte, and of William Thomas Beckford, the 18th century English politician, collector and writer. Rainier III was born in Monaco on May 31, 1923, the only son of Prince Pierre of Monaco, Duke of Valentinois (neé Count Pierre de Polignac) and his wife, Hereditary Princess Charlotte, Duchess of Valentinois. Born in Algeria, Africa his mother was the only child of Prince Louis II and his mistress, Marie Juliette Louvet. To prevent the line of succession falling to his German cousin, the Duke of Urach, Louis II had his daughter legitimized through formal adoption and named heiress to the throne. Prince Rainier's father was the son of Count Maxence de Polignac and his Mexican-born Spanish wife, Susana de la Torre y Mier. Upon marriage he adopted the Grimaldi surname and was made a prince of Monaco by his father-in-law.

You wouldn't believe it if you looked on the runway, at an ad campaign, or heck...anywhere, but people of color are buying more luxury goods than ever. Nielsen just released its consumer report on black Americans, and the market research firm's findings were, to say the very least, quite eye-opening. With black buying power expected to to reach $1.7 trillion by 2017, the report notes how increasingly important it's become for brands to market to black people. Sadly, getting companies to realize this has been a struggle. According to the report, $75 billion dollars was spent last year on television, magazine, internet, and radio advertising, yet only $2.24 billion was spent on media focused on black audiences. A puzzling figure indeed. Read More

The winner of the Archibald prize 2017 for portraiture has been awarded to Mitch Cairns for his portrait of artist. and partner, Agatha Gothe-Snape. A runners-up highly commended rosette goes to Jun Chen, for his portrait of retired gallerist Ray Hughes.
Mitch Cairns, Agatha Gothe-Snape. Oil on linen, 140.5 x 125 cm.
Before we get to a discussion of these works and the finalists, and a quick tour through the accompanying main prizes – the Wynne prize for landscape and figure sculpture, and the Sir John Sulman prize for subject and genre painting – let's pause for a moment to consider a couple of simple questions: what is the state of portrait painting? And what does the Art Gallery of NSW's storied annual prize, now in its 96th year, tell us about the kinds of choices made in its selection?
Classical portrait painting as a genre has a limited number of variations, generally being a rendition of the subject's face, or head and shoulders, but in practice will also occasionally include a full figure, either seated or standing. The other measure of a successful portrait is that it is said to have captured a "good likeness" – a somewhat problematic claim that is often very hard to judge.
Cairns's win, widely predicted, is for a picture that is for the most part a classical portrait, albeit one with a seated figure, rendered in the artist's trademark style that is both Modernist in influence – Matisse, Picasso, et al – but contemporary in its graphic edge. It's also demonstrably a good likeness. Since the painting fulfils the basic requirements of the genre, all objections to its award are merely whinges over style. With two close calls with the prize in previous years, Cairns's win was perhaps inevitable in the same way that artist's with equally accessible styles, say past winners Del Kathryn Barton or Adam Cullen, eventually won through sheer persistence. The portrait also occupies a sweet spot between classic, generic features of a portrait, and something a little more adventurous.
The Archibald prize is an award given by a committee – the trustees of the Art Gallery of New South Wales (AGNSW), which includes two artists – that in part explains why the highly commended work, Chen's Ray Hughes picture, couldn't be more different to Cairns's painting. Hughes, a veteran gallerist who is now confined to a wheelchair and ill-health after decades of good living, is shown on a dark stage behind some black curtains.
It's worth checking out the finalists of one of the UK's mostly hotly contested portrait prizes, the BP National Portrait Prize now showing in London, if you want to see a truly conservative selection of contemporary portraits. Most of these works display prodigious painting skills, stick to generic rules and feature fairly standard compositions, and are for most part utterly boring.
Like all genres, be they in art or literature or film, the really interesting stuff for me takes place at the margins, where the rules of the genre get bent and broken. The purists might complain, but comparatively the AGNSW's annual Archibald selection is usually a much more lively affair than its straight-laced cousins overseas with a more daring combination of pictures that range from the tediously accomplished, to the inept and amateurish, to a thin band of finalists that could conceivably be thought to create a "good likeness" while doing something interesting with painting itself.
It's not a bad likeness of the divisive personality, and it's painted in the ever-popular expressionist style so beloved by the public, but the work is also suggesting that Hughes is not long for this world, a stage play about to meet its final curtain. Chen's huge, oil-encrusted canvas was pointed out to me as a potential winner at the unveiling of the finalists a couple of weeks ago and I fell into a deep, panicked sweat worrying that such a grossly obvious picture, and one so lugubriously painted, could win. Where the trustees have often been guided by sentimentality, this time, thank god, they erred on the side of discretion.
The tension between traditional portraits and works that sit at the limits of what most people consider a portrait is the friction that fires up the whole engine of the prize. Paintings by Robert Hannaford, Phil Meacham, and Paul Newton among others are the traditionalists, portraits with classically composed and painted realist images of men in suits, painted at large scale and given pride of place on the walls. These works stand out for the fact they are completely unremarkable. The sad part is that better, more modest works by women artists such as Kate Benyon, Vanessa Stockard and Natasha Walsh's self portraits, tend to be overlooked. These are the gems in the selection, along with other traditionalist pictures by painters including Andrew Bonneua, Keith Burt and Gerard Smith.
The other end of the spectrum is where questions get asked such as "is this a portrait at all?" Tjunkara Ken's self portrait I am tjukurpa, my tjukurpa is me… looks like it should be in the Wynne prize – is this not a landscape? If one can conceive that country and identity are the same thing, then of course, why isn't it a portrait? The old conceptual art fallback of saying that something is something because the artist says it is has always been good enough for me, although many people will disagree. Sophia Hewson's Untitled (Richard Bell) is a portrait in some senses because it features an image of the Indigenous artist Richard Bell prancing across an alpine meadow in the style of Disney and the Sound of Music hand-in-hand with Hewson. This is a picture with a big idea behind it, to satirically depict white guilt and raise the question of why a person of colour has never won the Archibald. That a young white woman is asking this question prompts further debate provided for you in the space for comments below.
Some have suggested that this a poor year for the Archibald but in reality the prize only ever comes down to perhaps half a dozen paintings. Cairns deserves his win as his work genuinely belongs in that slim selection of good paintings, but there are others on my personal wish list for future wins: Vincent Namatjira's brilliant Self-portrait on a Friday isn't just a great painting, it's also a classical portrait, as is my other favourite, Marc Etherington's playful but exact portrait of fellow artist Paul Williams. Perhaps next year. As to the state of portraiture, if more by accident than design, the Archibald offers up a tasting menu of everything that's good, bad and indifferent in the genre. There are "good likenesses" and there are bad paintings.
The Wynne prize was remarkable for the number of paintings by Aboriginal artists. Some have suggested that the decision by the AGNSW to hang the Indigenous paintings together in the central gallery usually reserved for the big pictures of the Archibald prize, served to artificially separate the artists from the rest of the field, and that this was a bad thing. This thought didn't actually occur to me looking at the finalists, rather the hang seemed to make most of the rest of the Wynne field look very ordinary. Betty Kuntiwa Pawmani's winning Antara is a magnificent painting, a swirling combination of white and red that depicts the landscape of the artist's country in South Australia. My personal favourites in this selection-within-a-selection were Barbara Mbitjana Moore's Rock holes near my country, Ti Tree – Anmatyerre country, and Yaritji Young's Honey Ant Country, paintings that produce dazzling visual fields dominated by circles and gestural lines.
Of the three sculptures included this year, the most notable is That which provides safety and the possibility of growth, that which you can put your trust in, by Juz Kitson, who has produced an arresting and visually intriguing shaman's cloak that mixes animal parts and quasi-technology. Of the rest of the Wynne, there's not a lot to get excited about save for Time and Tide, a lovely work of suburban mystery by Robyn Sweaney, and Guy Maestri's smashed up, self-effacing sculpture, Self-Portrait (For posterity).
Joan Ross, Oh History You Lied to Me. Mixed media painting on paper, 95 x 122 cm.
The exit to the coffee shop is through the last section of awards festivities, the Sir John Sulman prize. The category is so wide, and so ambiguous, that it's basically an open category for contemporary painters to enter anything they please.

Giant Jan De Nul crane ship floated out
Les Alizés is due for delivery in the second half of this year
The CMHI Haimen shipyard in China has floated out Jan De Nul's giant crane ship Les Alizés.
Aimed at the offshore renewables and decommissioning market, it will be the largest heavy lift vessel in the Jan De Nul fleet, able to install super-large offshore wind components, in floating conditions and with ultra-low emissions.
Main features of the vessel include a main crane of 5,000 tons, a deck loading capacity of 61,000 tons and a deck space of 9,300 square meters.
FINAL CONSTRUCTION PHASE STARTS
The launch started on January 2 by flooding the dry dock in which Les Alizés was built. Once afloat, Les Alizés was moored alongside the adjacent quay wall.
The final phase of the vessel's construction can now begin, including sea trials. Les Alizés is due for delivery in the second half of this year, in good time for her first assignment. This will be in Germany , where the vessel will work for Ørsted on the construction of Gode Wind 3 and Borkum Riffgrund 3 offshore wind farms, transporting and installing 107 monopile foundations.
"The construction of our offshore floating installation vessel Les Alizés is well on track." says Philippe Hutse, director offshore division at Jan De Nul Group. "We can look forward to delivery later this year, so that we can continue to build the future of offshore renewable energy. Together with our offshore jack-up installation vessel Voltaire, which is also under construction in China, we will have the perfect set of offshore installation vessels that will be able to install current and future generations of offshore wind farms. This is how we offer our customers the most efficient installation solutions and results."

INNOVATIVE DESIGN READY FOR FUTURE CHALLENGES
Since the ship was ordered at the end of 2019, the design of Les Alizés has been further fine-tuned. Jan De Nul is investing in innovative mission equipment that provides solutions for the next generation offshore wind installation challenges while improving safety and efficiency. These include:
A highly innovative crane with Universal Quick Connector (UQC): Among the largest in its class, the crane will utilize a Universal Quick Connector (UQC), developed by Huisman, and leveraging the expertise of Jan De Nul's operational and engineering teams. The result, says Jan De Nul is "a ground-breaking innovative UQC, that will deliver a major step change in safer offshore lifting activities.
An innovative motion-compensated pile gripper: the highly advanced electrical gripper, with an integrated guidance and survey system, will allow safe and efficient installation of next-generation monopiles with pin-point accuracy.
A fully automated monopile handling system: the tailor-made system consists of a set of cradles, a skidding system and an upending hinge to handle and install XXL monopiles. It is well suited to work in challenging weather conditions and high sea states.
"It is our continued philosophy to focus on operational efficiency and improving safety as the main objectives," says Jan Van De Velde, head of the newbuilding department at Jan De Nul Group. "The universal quick connector, the innovative motion-compensated pile gripper and the fully automated monopile installation system perfectly fit into our strategy of having no manual deck intervention during installation."
ULTRA-LOW EMISSION VESSEL WITH HYBRID CAPABILITY
In order to reduce the vessel's CO2 emissions, the power plant on board is a hybrid setup. The arrangement combines diesel-driven generators with battery and drive technology to optimize engine loading and to recover the potential energy returned from the heavy lift crane. To further reduce the carbon footprint of installation activities, the ultra-low emission vessel can run on second-generation biodiesel that reduces the fuel carbon footprint by up to 90%.
As an ultra-low emission vessel, Les Alizés is equipped with a highly advanced dual exhaust filter system, removing up to 99% of nanoparticles from emissions using a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and reducing the NOx emissions and other pollutants by means of a selective catalytic reduction system (SCR) to levels in accordance with EU Stage V regulation. Les Alizés and Voltaire will be the first two seagoing installation vessels in the world with extremely low emissions.

We've all heard the refrain of hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. It's important for everything from healthy skin to a healthy body. So, start your day off right with a cool glass of water to rehydrate after getting all those zzz's.
Yogurt is a super-healthy way to start the day, especially if it's one like calcium-rich Yoplait Original. Try topping yours with #3.
We're almost officially in summertime, and there is nothing better than fresh picked fruit in the summer. Start your day off with a bowl of fresh berries, melon or whatever you love.
Having a little protein like an egg can fill you up for longer, so if lunch is going to be far away, it's a great idea to have some protein with your breakfast.
Whole grains are the best carbs for you. Pour yourself a bowl of whole grain cereal like Chex or Multi-Grain Cheerios and add milk (calcium!) and some sliced bananas. Perfection in a bowl.
Not up for a meal (or in too much of a hurry for one)? Toss frozen fruit like Cascadian Farms berries in the blender with yogurt and milk and blend it to perfection. Then you can drink and go.
A slice of whole grain toast, an egg and fruit … it's a perfect balance, and oh so tasty.
Love ice cream sundaes? Turn the classic on its head with filling a bowl up with cut up fruit and topping it with a dollop or two of your favorite yogurt, a little toasted coconut and dark chocolate chips (hey, they have antioxidants!).
I know, it sounds crazy. But green tea is filled with cancer-fighting antioxidants, so it's a great choice in the morning.
Ultimately, the best thing you can do is to start your day off with something in your belly. It sets the right tone for your body all day.
Try one of these recipes to get a tasty breakfast rolling in no time!


PEWAUKEE, Wis. – American Transmission Co. on Wednesday received a final written order from the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin authorizing construction of two new 138-kilovolt transmission lines needed to improve electric system reliability in western Milwaukee County.
The approved project involves construction of two transmission lines and a new substation planned by We Energies near Watertown Plank Road and 93rd Street, adjacent to the existing We Energies Milwaukee County power plant and substation. Approximately 90 percent of the ordered routes is on municipal or public property and less than 10 percent is on private or commercial property.
The new substation and transmission lines are needed to respond to the area's growing electric needs and the critical nature of the Level 1 adult and pediatric trauma centers located within the Milwaukee Regional Medical Center complex. The medical center calls for a higher level of electric service reliability, one that includes a backup source for electricity in the event one of the two lines experiences an outage.
Construction of the line is planned to start in summer 2014, and the line is expected to be in service in spring 2015. The PSC-approved cost for ATC's portion of the project is approximately $22.7 million.
Note to editors: A map and additional information about the project is available at http://www.atc-projects.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/MilwaukeeCountyApproved-RoutesMarch2013.pdf.


We need more resilient people.
We need more risk takers.
We need more innovators and doers, thinkers and tinkerers.
Small business generates almost half the jobs available in the U.S. public sector. Of those companies, they are arguably 16 times more innovative than their larger counterparts producing 16 percent more patents than the big guys. With such great opportunity to be creative and inventive, means entrepreneurs and small businesses are creating real solutions to solve real problems.
All of which can easily be woven into your daily family conversations and activities. From dinner time chats to Sunday afternoon games, the entrepreneurial philosophies can be easily adapted. At home here, we often use playtime role-playing to teach about transactions (money), roles (positions) and responsibilities. Sometimes we set up fake stores and even get out our piggy banks to play with real money. We view our family time through the lens of education, adventure and opportunity...and of course, teaching entrepreneurship.
According to a US Labor Department report, 65% of today's school children will eventually be employed by jobs that have yet to be invented. "This not only has significant implications on how these children have to be educated and trained. It also implies that the current workforce may have to question the longevity of their existing employment and how they can ensure they are earning a living in the mid-term, given the changing nature of the labor market and the jobs available." Uber is killing the taxi economy. Airbnb is squeezing the hotel industry. AI is jeopardizing so many industries. So how, then, do we prepare our kids for the uncertain future job market? By teaching them the skills that are required across all industries: Complex problem-solving, creativity, emotional intelligence, resilience, grit, leadership, people management, and collaboration.
Self-confidence, resilience, how to sell, problem-solving, creativity, goal setting, empathy.
Self Confidence: Kids with a strong sense of self-are less likely to engage in dangerous activities and are more likely to be empathetic and help others. It's easy to encourage self-confidence: let your kids make up their own decisions and come up with their own ideas. By giving them autonomy, they'll experience higher levels of confidence with anything they do.
Resilience: Teaching your kids to be able to handle the toughest situations will help them not only in life but in their career. Let them experience failure and encourage them to try again. When they start to develop the confidence to do things on their own, they will eventually grow a thicker skin and will be able to think through problems much easier.
How to sell: It's not about teaching them to become a sleazy car salesman, it's about teaching them the craft of sales and negotiation. Selling is used in almost everything we do: persuasion, negotiation, and conversation. It's teaching them to effectively convince someone of their idea ("let's go play in the woods instead of in the pool..."), it teaches them about the value of their time and the value of things (let's trade hockey cards), it teaches them financial skills (how much to sell her lemonade for), it helps your child build and maintain relationships, and it raises their self-esteem.
Problem Solving: This is a key driver and essential skill for all entrepreneurs. Knowing how to analyze a problem, come up with a proper evaluation/hypothesis and solution is a leading skill for all successful entrepreneurs. When your child is faced with a problem, guide them through possible solutions (that they have proposed), but don't help them. Let them view the situation from every angle to come up with the best result.
Creativity: In order to solve problems though, your child needs to be creative. Creativity is the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality. IMBs 2010 Global CEO Study even suggests that creativity has become one of the more important traits for success. And as an entrepreneur, you are constantly faced with problems that require creative solutions.
Empathy: A leading skill for leaders to have in order to help gain acceptance amongst their peers. Some people are more naturally empathetic than others, so to work on this skill (some may argue is an emotion), will help your child become an effective leader. Teaching kids empathy is not that difficult, and to actually start when they are young is best. By helping them connect the dots between how they feel in a given situation and how they behave will help them better understand other people's motivations.
Goal setting: Have you implemented a chore system yet? That's the first step to teaching them about goal setting. Goals keep us motivated and pointed in the right direction. If the chore system outcome is a fun activity or treat, then they'll know what it takes to get to the finish line. Teaching them goal setting also teaches them about progress, effort, failure, and reward. Start as soon as they start walking by encouraging them to take a few extra steps.
Given all the reasons I already mentioned above, learning a difficult subject like Algebra or even another language will be easier for them because they would possess these skills. They would be more efficient at studying, at math and problem solving and more determined to get the right answer....on their own!
A four-year-old topping up their piggy bank with spare change grandma throws at them is counterproductive. It teaches them to expect money, and not how to earn it. Not only that it doesn't even teach them how to want to earn money. Simply having it or not wanting it as essentially the same, at least at a young age. Kids need to learn that they have to provide value to someone in order to earn something in return. Here is why the chore system can get tricky if there is a monetary reward attached to the outcome: it teaches them that they can be paid for doing the things they should be doing, not what is providing additional value. It's the same if you compared an entrepreneur just getting by with a successful one. Mediocre entrepreneurs do what they should be doing in order to get paid, successful ones do what adds value in order to be profitable.
We need more entrepreneurs! It's not only great for our economy, entrepreneurship helps solve some of the world's largest problems. And we need more problem solvers!
This is the reason why I started the Mini Maker Workshop series. I want to encourage kids to become entrepreneurs and, at the very least, think like an entrepreneur. Check it out here.
How have you been able to teach your child to think like an entrepreneur?

For brazilians was the 1970' World Cup in Mexico when we had a wonderful tem led by Pelé, with Rivelino, Tostão, Gerson e Carlos Alberto. This team was known as "Art soccer". Nowadays, French is the best because has good players and a excelent coach. About plan and science of soccer, brazilians stayed in the past, unfortunately.

If u asked any Moroccan this question, you will be hearing him saying that the best moments of the Fifa World Cup's history are Morocco's matches against Portugal and Spain in Fifa World Cup 2018. People have gone crazy about the performance of Morocco Against these two great teams.It's true Morocco have lost the match against Portugal but Moroccan players and on top of them Nordin Amrabat, who is an attacker, was the best player of the match even though he was injured. On the other hand, the match of Spain and Morocco was more fabulous.Moroccans and the rest of the world were mesmerised by the performance of the Moroccan team, to be frank, as a Moroccan I didn't expect such a performance and we're so happy and proud of our country and hopefully we will be present in World Cup 2022 and we will prouve to the world that Moroccans know how to play Soccer.

pls supply us with the level of each text on the front pace before or after the title i.e A1-B2., so that we can easily choose the proper one for our students' level otherwise it causes us to spend extra time to find

Hello seyhan,
Thank you for the suggestion. We are currently working through our material as part of a reorganisation of the site and part of this involves ensuring that the estimated level is included, as on this page, for example. However, some pages still need to have this added, as you say.

THE BRAVE BROWSER - REVOLUTIONARY?!
A look under the hood of the Brave Browser, and how to become a Brave Publisher.
When the Internet was first made public it had a choice, charge for each web-site, or use the same funding model as television channels. Today, web-sites, including my own, fund all the costs with advertisements that collect an ever more accurate and precise profile of each user accessing the millions of web-sites all over the Internet.
What if you fund those same sites, and not have to see a single advertisement ever again?
Well you now can. But, it requires some hoops to be traversed first. Step one, the publisher themselves must be registered with Brave as a publisher, open an uphold wallet, and, they must also register all their sites and channels, too.
For individual users who want to support creators, under preferences, there is a payment section, where you can contribute to creators using Bitcoin, Ethereum, Lite coin, or the Basic Attention Token. Regardless of the coin used, it will be converted to BAT, unless it was already BAT.
The funds will be distributed to the creators by Brave, at which point can claim and convert their new source of income using Uphold, which can then be transferred to their bank accounts.
The Brave Browser has three advertisement modes, Adblock by default, which I am ok with. Ads turned on which preserves the previous method of supporting creators, and Ads by Brave which I do not support at all. The reason I don't support Brave Injecting Ads, is for the reason same reason I do not support cable carriers injecting code. It is not net neutral. It is one thing for an end user to have software that removes aspects of the site, it is another for a company to pick and decide what ads run against a page.
Now, let's talk about security settings, shields, plugins and extensions. These all affect the overall look, feel, and usability of the Internet. Under Security, you have a Private Data section, you can clear anything you want from memory whenever you close Brave. You can pick and choose which password manager you want to use, I always preference LastPass. You control media, and if it auto plays. You can request to sites to not track you, not that sites listen to this feature. You can enable Strict Site Isolation, which sandboxes sites in their own process.
Under Plugins, out of the box you can enable Adobe Flash, which I wouldn't, and enable Google Widevine, which I didn't, since it is a DRM technology which restricts how some stuff works. You might have to activate it for some sites, but I haven't so far.
Under Shields, you have the Ad control, cookie control, fingerprinting protection, HTTPS Everywhere, you can block phishing and malware, and a few other things for now.
What are the only things that annoy me with the Brave Browser?
Ad injection, which is at least not enabled by default, and the utter lack of a dark theme. All my browsers I use I have a dark theme enabled, even on Youtube, I use the dark theme.


It is the middle of February and the Rio Grande Valley has not received any significant rainfall at all. I attended several meetings recently and according to NOAA the drought forecast looks bleak with no end in sight for 2013. Barring a tropical storm or Hurricane this summer, the water levels at Falcon and Amistad will drop to critical management levels. Officials are predicting that 13 Irrigation Districts are in danger of running out of water by June. If the irrigations districts do run out of water, it would make it very difficult to deliver water to municipalities. Some cities in the watershed are already considering implementing level/stage 3 of their water management plans in light of the bleak forecasts. The farmers/producers in the watershed are trying to decide what to plant or whether to plant anything at all knowing that they will only have one irrigation allotted for the whole year. I think that if all of the stakeholders in the watershed work together, they can figure out a way to get through the drought. There were some great ideas being discussed at the Water Summit. It will take some cooperation and innovative ideas and technology but it can be done.
I want to remind everyone that the ACWP will be holding two of their Work Group meetings in February.
The Arroyo Colorado Habitat Workgroup meeting will be held on February 21, from 2-4 pm at the Estero Llano Grande World Birding Center located at 3301 S. FM 1015. We will be discussing the Ramsey Park wetland project and the Rio Hondo grit/grease trap processing project.
The Arroyo Colorado Watershed Partnership will be hosting an Arroyo Colorado Steering Committee meeting on February 21, from 5-7 pm. Food and refreshments will be served from 4:30-5:00 pm. The meeting will be held at The Estero Llano Grande World Birding Center located at 3301 S. FM 1015.
Both meetings will be held at Pauraque Hall in the rear of the park.
I would like to make a big announcement. The Arroyo Colorado Conservancy is hosting a "Save the Arroyo" Fiesta. The Fiesta will be a membership drive/fundraising event. The ACC has partnered with Dargel Boats to hold a boat raffle as part of the Fiesta. The ACC will raffle off a Dargel 190 Skout w/115HP Evinrude Motor & McClain Trailer. Total package valued at more than $35,000. Tickets are $100 each, and only 500 will be printed. Odds are 1 in 500! The raffle will be drawn at the ACC "Save the Arroyo' Fiesta to be held at the Dargel Boats Showroom on October 10, 2013. There will be door prizes and a silent auction during the Fiesta leading up to the raffle. I want to ask all of our Arroyo partners to help make this a fun and successful event. We are still looking for sponsors for the event so if you are interested in being a sponsor or know someone who is interested, please have them contact me. I also need your help selling the raffle tickets! For tickets please contact Jaime Flores at 956-495-5532 or jjflores@ag.tamu.edu.
- The LRGV-TPDES Storm Water Task Force will be hosting their 15th Annual Lower Rio Grande Valley Storm Water Runoff Management and Planning Conference April 16-20 at the Pearl South Padre Resort, SPI, TX. This conference will introduce current issues related to TPDES storm water regulations, the new TCEQ MS4 TPDES permit, watershed protection plans, floodplain management, low impact development, non-point source pollution, funding, water research topics, and other water quality topics. New this year will be an early session offering a CFM review and exam, and on Saturday, April 20, 2013 the LRGV-TPDES Storm Water Task Force will host a fishing tournament to benefit the Arroyo Colorado Conservancy. Sign up today!
I still have not been able to go fishing and wet a line! Over the last couple of weeks, I have run into several people that read the monthly update. They all made the comment that I have been slacking off in regards to fishing. I told my wife, "I have to go fishing! The public is demanding that I go". Let see if that works. I did attend the All Valley Boat Show over the weekend. The ACC had a booth next to the CCA-Texas, Rio Grande Valley Chapter. I got to meet several of the fine folks at CCA over the course of the weekend. We talked a lot about fishing and even about possibly working together on some habitat restoration projects for the Arroyo Colorado! I will keep you posted.
