A short drive from my home sits a coffee shop. Since I live in Washington, this should come as no surprise to you. This shop, however, serves way- better-than-Starbucks coffee. Not only that, but it also serves gelato. How can it get any better than that?
The Spotted Cow impressed me by its brew. They gained a customer for life (or for as long as I'm in the area) by roasting their own beans and turning those babies into soft, aromatic, tasty espresso.
As good as its coffee is, the Spotted Cow also provides the perfect place for me to gather with business connections and clients. My first visit to the shop was to meet with Brian Trendler of Trendesigns, an amazing graphic design company I've had the privilege of working with often. I've since met with many others there, sipping fancy joe or eating gelato while we talk about our passions. They let me ramble about grammar and syntax; I get to hear their thoughts on business, health, or gardening.
This little coffee shop gives me the venue for my favorite part of my job. There I get to build relationships. I get to know other people's passions. I get to find out what makes business owners tick. Doing so is a pleasure, and I'm happy I've found a place that makes the time even more delightful.

Q: Whats the difference between sed -E and sed -e I'm working on some old code and I found that I used to use
sed -E 's/findText/replaceWith/g' #findText would contain a regex

but I now try
sed -e 's/findText/replaceWith/g'

It seems to do the same thing, or does it?
I kinda remember there being a reason I done it but I can't remember and doing "man sed" doesn't help as they don't have anything about -E only -e that doesn't make much sense ether.
-e, --expression=script
  Append the editing commands in script to the end of
  the editing command script. script may contain more
  than one newline separated command.

I thought -e meant it would match with a regex...
GNU sed version 4.2.1

A: From source code, -E is an undocumented option for compatibility with BSD sed.
/* Undocumented, for compatibility with BSD sed.  */
case 'E':
case 'r':
  if (extended_regexp_flags)
    usage(4);
  extended_regexp_flags = REG_EXTENDED;
  break;

And from manual, -E in BSD sed is used to support extended regular expressions.

A: From sed's documentation:

-E

-r

--regexp-extended

Use extended regular expressions rather than basic regular expressions. Extended regexps are those that egrep accepts; they can be clearer because they usually have fewer backslashes. Historically this was a GNU extension, but the -E extension has since been added to the POSIX standard (http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=528), so use -E for portability. GNU sed has accepted -E as an undocumented option for years, and *BSD seds have accepted -E for years as well, but scripts that use -E might not port to other older systems. See Extended regular expressions.

Therefore it seems that -E should be the preferred way to declare that you are going to use (E)xtended regular expressions, rather than -r.
Instead, -e just specifies that what follows is the script that you want to execute with sed (something like 's/bla/abl/g').
Always from the documentation:

Without -e or -f options, sed uses the first non-option parameter as the script, and the following non-option parameters as input files.

Mauro Icardi scored his 25th goal of the Serie A campaign to help Inter Milan ease past Cagliari 4-0 to move third in Serie A on Tuesday, putting the pressure on Roman rivals Lazio and Roma in the battle for Champions League places.
Inter had not scored or won in their last three games but Joao Cancelo broke the drought after just three minutes off a free kick in the San Siro.
Inter's top scorer Icardi got the second after the break with Marcelo Brozovic returning from suspension to grab the third on the hour with Ivan Perisic rounding off the rout in the final minute.
"After securing the result, the ball started to move at the right tempo, whereas before we didn't have the right rhythm," said coach Luciano Spalletti.
"All in all we had a good game, I liked the team."
It was a dominant display by the former European giants who have no option but to win as they target a Champions League return for the first time since 2012.
Spalletti's side move back up to third position with 63 points from 33 games before Roma and Lazio, both on 61 points, play Genoa and Fiorentina respectively on Wednesday.
French striker Yann Karamoh missed two golden chances in front of goal with the hosts losing midfielder Roberto Gagliardini who was stretchered off in the first half with a suspected hamstring problem.
Cancelo left Cagliari's Alessio Cragno with no chance in goal early but Karamoh could have got the second after quarter of an hour in Milan when captain Icardi set him up with only the goalkeeper to beat.
Karamoh, 19, also missed a second chance to finish off a Danilo D'Ambrosio cross but rattled the crossbar.
Leandro Castan blocked a close range Icardi effort before the break, with Karamoh looking to have finally scored but was ruled offside.
Icardi failed to finish off a Perisic ball on front of goal before the half-time whistle but made no mistake after the break slotting in off a Rafinha cross to slot in his 25th goal of the Serie A campaign — a personal record for the Argentine.
It surpassed the 24 he scored last year to take his career total to 106 Serie A goals in 185 appearances.
Ten minutes later Perisic sent the ball down the middle for Icardi, who was blocked by Cagliari centre-back Marco Andreolli, with the ball falling to the feet of Brozovic, who curled in and then set up Perisic for the fourth.
"I'm happy for the 25 goals, although I guess he's not happy, because he could have capitalised more," said Spalletti of Icardi.
"He made a lot of movement, he helped the team, but from the point of view of scoring I think he's not happy, I know he would like to bring everything home."
Cagliari are struggling 14th just five points above the relegation zone.
Champions Juventus travel to Crotone on Wednesday with Napoli's dwindling Serie A title hopes are hanging on a win at home against Udinese who have lost their last nine games.
Napoli are six points behind Juventus before this weekend's top-of-the-table clash in Turin.

Timothy Mallborn: The Invisible Boy by Matthew Lie-Paehlke
Who says the soul-sucking alienation of contemporary consumerism can't be fun? Those of us who live in a community that features a shopping mall at its cultural and social heart, will have no trouble identifying with Timothy Mallborn, the invisible hero of Matthew Lie-Paehlke's delightful story of a young boy who grows up in a mall - literally.
Timothy gets lost as a five year old lad, and finds meaning, art, and even love as he wanders from store to store over twenty-plus years. In his world you're invisible unless you're buying something. Who hasn't had that feeling on a busy Saturday during a holiday sale? Yet despite having been abandoned by his parents and living a lonely life surrounded by thousands of shoppers, young Timothy finds a way to connect with his own humanity and the spirits of the people all around him.
It's theatre of the absurd, funny and touching, and I couldn't put it down. I look forward to reading more from this imaginative writer.
Author note - Civitas Island - The Birth of Hope
This is the second novel in my "Civitas Rising" series. It's been a joy peeling back the layers of drama and political intrigue that confront the Newman family and their friend Marco Prima.
I've been both surprised and fascinated by the evolving political dynamics in the story. What started as a narrative about finding balance in our personal priorities has uncovered a fundamental truth - that if we hope to achieve an equilibrium in our personal lives, we need to ensure the cultural and political world in which we live isn't an upside-down mess.
Even after their escape from the mainland, Rachel Newman and Marco Prima find themselves caught up in the toxic messiness of Freedom First's America, a country that sacrifices community values at the altar of corporate libertarianism. The results are a roller-coaster ride where these young lovers have to come to terms with their own personal phantoms while desperately fending off an assault on their island refuge by global cartels intent on sinking Civitas once and for all.
I hope you enjoy the read. It's a wild ride.
Healthcare Options
What do you call someone who is opposed to making healthcare available to everyone? A patriot? An idiot? I guess it depends.
In some of the poorest countries in Europe and elsewhere, people have to resort to selling their organs (yes - kidneys, even lungs) to pay for the basics they and their family need to survive. Macabre but true. See the article in today's NY Times at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/48008837/ns/world_news-the_new_york_times/?gt1=43001
At the same time, there are those in the United States, hardly one of the worlds hard luck economies, who feel it is offensive, perhaps even treasonous, to consider healthcare a basic service - like public education or a pension system for the elderly. These patriotic folks all have private healthcare insurance of some kind, so it isn't that they want to deny themselves. They want other people to be free of the burden of affordable healthcare. Perhaps this is some kind of punishment for not working hard enough, or getting bad grades in school, or being born into the wrong family, or just being unlucky. Whatever the crime, the penalty is severe. You are to go untreated when you're ill or injured, or have to declare bankruptcy to pay medical bills. Alternatively, you could just die.
The advanced economies of the world have all come up with working, affordable solutions for providing their populations with healthcare. All except the US. For us, it's a matter of principle, of political freedom - we will not succumb to affordable healthcare! We will fight it to our last breath.
Who thinks like that??
The future of commerce can be found in the past
I grew up in Montreal and used to spend summers at a boys camp in upstate New York near Saranac Lake. So a story about that small town in this morning's paper caught my eye. Apparently, the only store selling clothing and other essentials closed down recently, part of a national chain downsizing, and the community decided to take matters into its own hands. They pooled resources and opened The Community Store.
I like this story for several reasons. First, it shows people finding creative solutions to a problem. Second, it demonstrates the power and centrality of community in commerce. Finally, it gets us back to business at a human scale.
Faced with a challenge - nowhere to buy underwear without driving 50 miles - the good citizens of Saranac Lake invested in themselves. They didn't wait for an outside megastore to come in and save them. In fact, when Wal-Mart explored the idea of moving into the area, they were rebuffed. People chose a creative, entrepreneurial track, taking their destinies into their own hands.
Global corporations have deep pockets to promote their "brand", they can hire local people and provide support for community events, but they are never really "of the community". They are visitors, investors who hope to benefit from their local affiliation. A community resource puts community before profits. It is there to serve the community rather than seeing community service as good PR in the service of maximizing profits. Profits will follow for an organization that provides a needed service, but maximizing profit at the expense of a community doesn't make a business "better", just richer. With principled, skilled leadership, the new Community Store could be a model for other communities around the country.
I'm not suggesting that all business has to be small and local. I am saying that a small business that provides a needed service and grows from within the community knows that serving the community is essential to its survival. Such enterprises are more likely to be responsive, responsible and resilient. It's how early capitalism looked, before the evolution of massive, global enterprises. It's finding a positive path to profits without negative exploitation. Perhaps the future of business can be found in its past. Nothing wrong with that! http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2016756087_saranac14.html

When it comes to holiday destinations Spain is a much-loved favourite among us Brits. But when we hop on that EasyJet flight, what is it we're visiting Spain for? When we think of Spain, from San Sebastian to Marbella, what springs to mind? From a visit to the British-dominated tourist havens of Magaluf, Benidorm or Torremolinos, many Brits could come away thinking Spain is about sun, sea and cerveza, and not much else. Spend a few days in the northern towns of Santiago de Compostela or Burgos, and the cooler climate and gothic architecture will give you a very different impression.
What about Spain's image overseas, boosted by ambassadors such as Penelope Cruz, (who recently became the first Spanish actress to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame) Rafa Nadal (currently ranked world number 1) and Cesc Fabregas (in the list to please Arsenal fans) to name a few. You don't need to visit Spain to wear Spanish fashion (Zara, Mango) or to eat Spanish cuisine such as tapas and paella washed down with sangria, all cruelly imitated in La Tasca restaurants up and down the country.
Let us know what you think is the best Spanish export. It might be your personal favourite, or what you think represents Spain at its best. And feel free to offer suggestions! How do us Brits, best known for ordering "dos cervezas por favor" and raving it up on the Costa del Sol, really view Spain?

Compare and Contrast Beatles Music Vs Elvis Presley Music
The Beatles music refers to the rock style of music that was performed by an English band based in Liverpool in 1960. Their rise to stardom began in 1960, and they became the most successful group of Rock music commercially. Their popularity began to rise in the United Kingdom after the release of their first hit entitled "Love Me Do" in 1962. They were acclaimed by many people for the electric performances that accompanied their music. The leading singers in this band were John Lennon and Paul McCartney. The other members included Pete Best, Ringo Starr, George Harrison and Stuart Sutcliffe. Elvis Presley was both a singer and an actor living and working in the USA. He is often referred to as the king of rock and roll by his fans and critics for the impact he had on their lives and on the music industry in general. He was revered during his heyday, and he is still a cultural icon. He died in 1977, but the impact of his music is still being felt up to date due to the rapid fame he endured in the mid-1950's.
The music that was performed by Elvis Presley and the Beatles group differed in various aspects that ranged from the music harmony, the rhythm, type of melodies, the tunes and tones, and lastly the sound effect. All these differences have been highlighted, and they include the following:
The Beatles Band had a superior artistry of combining a multiplicity of genres, and this included country music, baroque pop, folk rock and psychedelic. Their way of presentation and performance was daring and littered with artistic discipline (Elvis Presley Enterprises). As a result of their ability to coalesce and manipulate the music by the use of the sound effect and harmonization of the melodies deployed in their musical performances; their end product was more captivating as compared to the music that was composed and performed by Elvis Presley.
Both of the artists were cultural icons who were idolized by the fans and their critics alike. For instance, Elvis was the greatest singer and entertainer of all times, whereas the Beatles were the greatest music band of all times.
Music created and performed by these people brought joy to millions of fans worldwide. They were brilliant in their musical renditions and attracted beneficial commercial contracts and packages, as a result. This boosted their music careers and helped them to stay on the top during their halcyon days.
Both marked the beginning of a new era in the music industry and the entire fabric of the world culture. They transformed the entire world through their music and the message they relayed to the listeners. Their songs had a long-lasting impact on the minds of their fans and music lovers in general.
Both had the advantage of accessibility to fans that had access to a wide variety of media. This predestined wider exposure of their music and consequently greater rewards, as a result.
They both had the audience that was not used to the phenomena of full-scale media. The inadequate number of media outlets during their time meant that they got all easily got all the attention they so much desired such that other upcoming musicians never got the chance to expose their music to the world.
They both marked a change in the generation in accordance with the historical record. The music that was performed by the Beatles band was merely a continuation of the music of Elvis Presley had started. They changed the entire music industry in a way it had never been done by their predecessors.
Both set of musicians did not distinctively have a quantitative or qualitative difference for that matter in terms of team allegiance their male and female fans. It, therefore, means that they were not able to correctly ascertain the actual number of their male fans or female fans.
The other similarity in the presentation of their music is based on the use of musical instruments. They both used the harmonium musical instrument in conjunction with other instruments to array their musical talent to their fans and to the world at large (Moeller).
The following are the differences that emerged between the Beatles' music and Elvis Presley's music. Some of these differences are extremely contentious because they tinted an image that portrayed the fans of the Beatles music to be higher in both the social and economic status. However, in most instances, the following differences are conspicuous and they stand out. The first difference is based on the geographical location of the musical performers. Elvis Presley hailed from the United States of America while the Beatles were from the city of Liverpool in Britain. Therefore, this meant that they performed their music to the fans in their locale.
It took a little more time for the impact of Presley music to be felt in the United States of America due to the inadequate media facilities during his time. However, the Beatles had a resounding reception, and their music impact was felt in every corner of the world and particularly in London due to the advancement of technology that was being realized during their rise.
Elvis Presley's music encountered increased resistance from the nation at large because of the rhetorical questions he raised. Fortunately, the Beatles faced a few challenges largely due to the work Presley had done in the music industry prior to their emergence. Presley wiped off the resistance that most of the musicians were bound to encounter during his era.
Another obvious difference is that Elvis Presley performed as an individual whereas the Beatles comprised of a band of artists. Elvis Presley was also an artist and an actor while the Beatles only concentrated on their music career.
The other difference is that the fans of Elvis Presley music were largely composed of a working-class social and economic background whereas the fans that supported the Beatles music came from the middle-class type of social background.
In terms of education, the fans of the Beatles music were likely to have more college and university level of education and knowledge than the fans of Presley music. This is largely due to the time difference between the emergence of the two sets of distinguished musicians.
The psychological needs and the propensity of the fans of Elvis Presley music were stronger than the fans of the Beatles music. This implies that they were more prone to cause divisions among themselves.
The music lovers of Presley music were more insecure psychologically than the fans of the Beatles (Owens). The psychological insecurity portrayed by the fans of Presley manifested itself in acts such as blind faith and thoughts of self-denial.
The fans of the Beatles were more than likely to have more loyalty to their music than the fans of Presley. This is depicted in the allegiance of the fans to those clubs that promoted the songs of the artists.
In conclusion, Elvis Presley was an outstanding musician who used his musical talent to great effect. The rock music he performed was appreciated by his fans and the world at large. Equally, the artists that formed the Beatles band were effective in their music performances, and, as a result, they attracted huge crowds to their concerts. Their style and choice of music were almost alike, but there are differences that were prominent both in their sets of fans and in their music. Through their music, they revolutionized the music industry in terms of the quality of the songs they performed.

American Intelligence Report Predicts China will be World's Leading Economic Power by 2030
Read, listen and learn English with this story. Double-click on any word to find the definition in the Merriam-Webster Learner's Dictionary.
From VOA Learning English, this is IN THE NEWS in Special English.
A new American intelligence report this week predicted Asia's economic power rising in the coming years. The report says that by the year 2030, the United States will no longer be the superpower it is today. It says that no nation will have that kind of influence, with power instead redirected to coalitions between countries.
The report comes from the National Intelligence Council of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. The document was researched and written by experts from outside the government. They say the findings are meant to help policymakers in their long-term planning on major issues.
The report says the world will look different by 2030. The economy in Asia will be larger than that of North America and Europe combined. China will have the largest economy in the world. And the Chinese economy will be 140 percent greater than Japan's economy.
Some observers say China needs to take steps before it can become the world's biggest economy. Patrick Chovanec is with Tsinghua University's School of Economics and Management in Beijing. He believes that several things could affect the country's economic growth.
"China's growth is extremely resource dependent and those resources are becoming scarcer and scarcer. In particular, water, in northern China, there is a growing scarcity of water, and that along with other resource constraints might limit China's prospects of going forward."
Patrick Chovanec says the average age in China is rising because of the country's one-child policy. He says there are concerns China will grow old before it is wealthy enough to support its growing population.
The new report also says the world economy will be more dependent on the health of developing countries, instead of the West. It says there will be a higher demand on resources as the world's population expands from seven-point-one billion today to eight billion people.
The report says nearly half of the population will live in areas with severe water issues. It says limited water resources and farmland could increase the risk of conflict in parts of Africa, the Middle East and South Asia.
Experts are predicting that the United States could become more active in settling disputes in the future. As a mediator, America could work to prevent what the report calls violence created from insecurity in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Robert Kagan is with the Brookings Institution in Washington.
"What the world is looking for from the United States - and it's not the world - individual states look for protection, they look - in some cases - for the ability to organize. I mean if you take the Syria issue which is before us right now, what people are waiting for is for the United States to step up and start pulling everyone together. And what's been missing has been the United States playing that role."
The writers of the report say their findings are not meant to predict the future, but instead provide a framework for thinking about possible futures. The report adds that the best world possible would exist if the United States and China work together and lead international cooperation.

Lithium batteries have been the preferred energy source to power a wide variety of consumer goods. Although they are widely used, most people are not aware that lithium batteries are dangerous goods and post a risk with transportation regulations. As of April 1, 2016, The ICAO Air Navigation Commission prohibits shipping lithium ion batteries as cargo on passenger aircrafts.


Ghana's economy is primarily agricultural. The main crops are corn, cassava, sorghum, rice, millet and so on. The development of garri processing in Ghana is relying on the superiority of local cassava raw material. The main economic crops are oil palm, rubber, cotton, peanuts, sugarcane, tobacco and so on. Ghana's industrial base is low than other countries.
Cassava is a tuber crop native to South America; However, Ghana is the world's leading producer. It contains a very high level of starch, and is processed in many ways to get an edible end-product. In this article, we are going to see garri processing in Ghana from cassava. By the way, Doing Company is a professional garri processing machine manufacturer and supplier.
As an easy staple, garri processing in Ghana is indispensable (In western Africa). Because cassava is adaptable and drought resistant and barren. In Ghana, the planting area of cassava should be with plenty sunshine, the area of deep and loose soil is good for the growth of cassava. Cassava is suitable for deep ploughing and sunning in a land with abundant organic matter, good drainage and sufficient fertility. When tying the ground, the height of weeds shall not be higher than 10-15 cm; and the soil in the ploughing layer is ground up and dug up to make sure the soil layer is deeply loose and breathable, so as to improve the capacity of water storage, fertilizer conservation and drought resistance of the soil.
The garri processing in Ghana is always started with small scale. For example, the traditional garri product being produced by family business, all the steps are done by hand, its characteristic is the low yield, low efficiency. Of course, the product quality level is not stable.
1. Peel off the skin of the cassava tubers.
2. Wash the peeled tubers. Use a lot of water because this is the only washing you are going to do.
3. Cut the tubers into medium sizes. This is because they are going to be ground in a grinding tool.
4. Bring them to the stone mortar (usually a very large one) and grind them.
5. After the grinding, the cassava powder (still watery) needs to be packed in long bags and drilled to ultimate dryness in a jack for 2-3 days.
6. Using a wide sieve to sieve off the fine cassava powder from other particles.
7. Then, using a thick frying pan to fry the powder in reasonable portions.
8. Pack your garri in plastic bags. All the traditional steps of garri processing in Ghana are included.
Outdated methods of garri processing in Ghana are basically the same as the automatic production line, but the automatic garri production has many advantages. Such as a small cassava crusher, capacity 1000kg per hour; Power: Three phase 3kW 415v, 50Hz; Grinds cassava tubers and granulates pressed, lump material.

Q: Create subfolders in Sails.js /api/controllers here is my problem: I would like to create some subfolders inside /api/controllers in order to organize my source code. My problem there is that as soon as I create a new folder, blueprint api / routes / actions don't seem to work anymore.
From all my tests if I change /api/controller/UserController.js to /api/controller/newpath/UserController.js I can't get the beauty of blueprint working anymore.
Is there any way to do that?
Thanks
Emmanuel

A: You can set this up. Its a bit undocumented, but you can setup a "_config" object on your controller
api/controllers/subFolder/YourController.js
...
module.exports = {
  _config: {
    model: 'YourModel' // case sensitive
    actions: true,
    shortcuts: true,
    rest: true
  }
}

Check out this answer
https://stackoverflow.com/a/22062367/1821723

A: Update January 2016
Since version 0.10.0, you can definitely do this.
The controller identity is its path, in your case newPath/UserController.  So a custom route config/routes.js would be something like:
'GET /newPath/user': 'newPath/UserController'

Automatic actions still work. You can also create controllers like this with sails generate controller newPath/user.

A: You can config routes.js as below
//application
'post /:api_key/applications'         : 'Threescale.Application.create',
'get /:api_key/check_api_key'         : 'Threescale.Application.check',
'get /:token/manager_list_accounts'   : 'Threescale.Account.list',
'put /:token/manager_approve_account' : 'Threescale.User.activate',

Under api/controllers, you can manage sub folders and actions as:
Threescale
    Application
        - create.js
        - check.js
    Account
        - list.js
    User
        - activate.js

Hope this is helpful for you!

A: You're right.
It doesn't work out of the box though you can try this approach:
In you models/User.js set identity: "newpath/user"
Hope it helps!

The modern-day life is characterized by stress and anxiety. There are various reasons for this including an increase in finances, work, and overall exertion. Hence, the majority of the adult populations suffers from effects of chronic anxiety and even develops problems related to mental health.
In such times, having a loved one by your side can help with managing the stress levels. It is scientifically proven that the presence of your significant other can not only improve your mood but help in decreasing all sorts of pain. Support and emotional healing are both fundamental for mental health.
While there is an abundance of medical research on the effects of being in presence of a partner, a new study highlights the results of solely thinking about your significant other.
The study, conducted by researchers from psychologists from the University of Arizona in Tucson concludes that being in presence of your partner as well as thinking about them leads to a reduction in stress, relieves the feeling of discomfort, and cope with stress in a better way.
The findings of this research can be read in the journal Psychophysiology. A total of one hundred and two people were involved in the study, who were given a stress-inducing task, to reach the final results.
To conduct the research, each of the 102 participants was asked to dip their feet in water which was three feet deep. The temperature of the water ranged around 3.3-4.4 degrees in Celcius and 38-40 degrees in Fahrenheit.
In order to measure the exact pressure and stress the participants felt, the researchers looked at various factors. These include heart rate, blood pressure, and heart rate variability both before and after the required task was performed.
All of the people, who were in long-term romantic relationships, were first divided into three groups by the team. In the first group, the partners of the participants who volunteered to do the tasks sat quietly with them as it happened.
People in the second groups were asked to only think about the support their partners would give them. The third and last group was to only think about any of the events that happened in their day while doing the assigned task.
During the task, the scientists noted that volunteering partners in group one and two both had a lower blood pressure compared to those in group three.
Putting it simply, being in the presence of partners or thinking about them helped the participants remain calm. On the other hand, the blood rate and blood rate variability were the same in all three groups.
However, this study may have some limitations as the studied participants were all undergrad students. The researchers agree that diverse age groups should also be included in any future research to see possibly different effects due to the impact of age.

Lee Westwood Will Lean on Girlfriend Caddie to Avenge Major Demons
Lukas Weese
JULY 19-- Lee Westwood and girlfriend caddie Helen Storey are walking into the weekend near the top of the Open Championship leaderboard.
Lee Westwood is in familiar territory. In contention on the weekend at a major championship. After shooting a four-under 67, the 46-year-old is one shot back of the lead at the Open Championship. The crowning jewel event for European golfers.
But unlike previous appearances, Westwood has a unique individual carrying his bag. Helen Storey, Westwood's girlfriend, opted to caddie for the Englishman instead of long-term partner Billy Foster.
The decision appears to be paying off for the former World No. 1. As he enters the twilight of his career, having a trustworthy caddie is important for Westwood. The search for that elusive first major championship continues.
And who better to share it with than a significant other.
The Perfect Bond Between Storey and Westwood
There is no more vital partnership in golf than between a golfer and caddie. The two walk in stride along the slopes of a course. The give and take is apparent as each component shares knowledge and information. But ultimately, the decision rests on the golfer on what shot to hit.
We have seen two opposite personalities succeed, such as Jordan Spieth and Michael Greller. A caddie can fuel a golfer's intensity, like Steve Williams did for Tiger Woods during his historic run. And sometimes, it can be the powerful bond of family that brings a golfer and caddie in unison, evidenced when Jack Nicklaus won the 1986 Masters, with his son on the bag.
Lee Westwood and Helen Storey have shown they can work well together because their conversations on the course don't solely focus on golf. It revolves around the calming topics that can help Westwood garner mental strength in the midst of a difficult round.
"You'd be surprised the sort of things we talk about out there," stated Westwood after his second round. "The favourite one was from Denmark the first week she caddied for me and I took out a divot because it was big and soft and she's walking back with the divot. I said: 'What's wrong?' She said: 'I hope there's not a worm in this.' It makes me smile. It's a big advantage."
Storey has been caddying for Westwood since last year. This week at Royal Portrush is her first experience at a major championship. An amphitheater that Lee knows far too well. In his over 20 years of professional golf, Westwood has won 43 times. He has represented Europe zealously at the Ryder Cup.
But capturing a major championship has escaped the Englishman throughout his career. With 18 Top 10's and three runner up finishes, Westwood has embraced the painful reality of falling short with grace and class. In many of those majors, lapses in mental judgment and execution, particularly the putting, prevented the experienced golfer from getting over the hurdle to victory.
Lee Westwood Embracing Opportunity at Open Championship
Evidenced with his 67 and 68 in the opening two rounds, Westwood appears to be benefiting from having Storey on the bag. Being in the effective head space enables Westwood to play his best. Storey is critical in allowing this to occur.
"Obviously I get on well with Helen," added the former world No 1. "She doesn't know too much about golf but she knows a lot about the way my mind works. So she keeps me in a good frame of mind and focusing on the right things at the right time."
For the tournament, Westwood has converted 64 percent of fairways hit, 78 percent greens in regulation with 1.58 average putts per hole. In all three categories, the Englishman is below the field average, demonstrating the flashes of brilliance that the golf world witnessed in his youth.
Having girlfriend Helen Storey on the bag has opened a new landscape of opportunities for Westwood. Most important being playing without pressure, an instinct necessary for success come the weekend at major championships.
"There's no pressure on me," Westwood said. "I just go out there and have fun. If it's going to happen, it's going to happen, and if it doesn't, it doesn't. Go home and have dinner, go on holiday the next week. Do the same things, life won't change."

Also playing: Field Music
MACKEM prog-pop pioneers FIELD MUSIC head down the A19 for a Teesside gig tomorrow.
FIELD MUSIC, ALGIERS
The Georgian Theatre, Stockton, tomorrow £6.50 in advance or £8 on the door
The critically-acclaimed Sunderland brothers will be at The Georgian Theatre, in Stockton.
Field Music - Peter and David Brewis - are set to release their fourth album, Plumb, through Memphis Industries in February next year.
The album, recorded over the course of 2011 at their new studio on the banks of the River Wear, is 15 songs in a slightly different mould to their previous offerings.
The record largely abandons the songwriting conventions embraced on last year's double album Measure and instead remodels the modular, fragmented style of their first two albums.
This time, however, it has a shot of surreal abstractions of 20th century film music added - from Bernstein to Willy Wonka - and the funk and synth-rock sound developed on the brothers' School of Language and The Week That Was albums.
Field Music have undoubtedly been responsible for some of the most sublime and artfully progressive pop over the last few years – so tomorrow's show should be one to remember.
Support comes from ex-DARTZ! and Maple State combo ALGIERS, whose debut EP, Four Priests, was released by the Big Scary Monsters record label last month and has received a plenty of praise.
The show, which is a 14+ gig, was originally due to be held at Middlesbrough's Westgarth Social Club.
Original tickets are still valid.

Regulatory Focus™ > News Articles > Are Biotechnology Products Safe for the Environment? FDA's New Policy Asks for Data
Are Biotechnology Products Safe for the Environment? FDA's New Policy Asks for Data
Posted 23 March 2015 | By Alexander Gaffney, RAC,
While the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may be primarily concerned with what medicinal products do to the human body, a lesser-known secondary concern of regulators is what a product will do to the environment.
Under 21 CFR 25.40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, most pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are required to submit an Environmental Assessment (EA) when submitting a new drug for approval.
The assessments are meant to show how a drug might affect the environment. Many drugs enter the environment as sewage after being excreted by patients.
FDA has explained in the past that it's particularly concerned with how drug substances behave once they enter "into the aquatic environment" (i.e. the water supply), whether they can be filtered out by water treatment facilities, and how those drug substances might cause harm to the environment or any wildlife.
The need for environmental assessments is taken seriously by FDA. A company's failure to submit an EA can result in a submission being rejected by FDA.
For more information read FDA's 1998 guidance, Environmental Assessment of Human Drug and Biologics Applications.
But FDA's 1998 guidance was written at a time when the term "drug" was largely synonymous with "chemical"—not "biotechnology." Nearly 20 years later, FDA has asked itself whether its environmental guidelines ought to apply to biotechnology products like gene therapies, vectored vaccines and related recombinant viral or microbial products (GTVVs) as well.
In June 2014, FDA released a draft guidance document, Determining the Need for and Content of Environmental Assessments for Gene Therapies, Vectored Vaccines, and Related Recombinant Viral or Microbial Products.
The guidance document explained that since most GTVV's are not naturally found in the environment—FDA's standard for exclusion—they will generally be subject to FDA's environmental testing regulations.
Even biotechnology products which are highly similar to naturally occurring species will need to undergo an environmental assessment, FDA said in the guidance. "Applications requesting agency action for GTVVs that are engineered to express one or more proteins from a different genus should include an EA because FDA would not consider the criteria for a claim of categorical exclusion to be met," the regulator explained.
One concern highlighted by FDA is the potential for variants of the approved product to make their way into the environment. For example, while some biotechnology products are engineered to make them unable to replicate, defects in the manufacturing process may allow some products to do so.
Read our coverage of the draft guidance document here.
What Does FDA Want to Know?
The guidance also contained extensive details regarding what information should be included in a company's EA submission to FDA, including a lengthy list of questions sponsors are supposed to answer:
Is the strain or vector virulent, pathogenic, or known to be associated with animal, plant or microbial toxicities?
Is there an understanding of the environmental distribution, host range, and tropism?
Are there substrates that may limit growth or reproduction?
Is the strain or vector susceptible to control by antibiotics, antivirals, or biocides?
What is known regarding the genetic stability and prevalence of gene exchange in natural populations of the strain or vector?
What is known about the stability of the strain or vector in the environment and is the strain capable of survival under adverse conditions (spores, dormancy, etc.)?
Does the product have traits that may give it a selective advantage over natural organisms?
Would susceptible species be exposed?
Does the environment provide limited or reduced capacity for growth or reproduction?
Are species or strains closely related to the product present in the environment that may be affected?
Can dispersal be naturally controlled by barriers in the environment?
What is known about the effectiveness of monitoring and mitigation plans?
Does the alteration affect the ability of the product to replicate?
What effects could transgene expression or exposure have outside of the target population?
What is known about the genetic stability of the altered sequence?
Final Guidance, No Changes
On 23 March 2015, FDA announced the release of the final iteration of its GTVV environmental assessment guidance.
In an accompanying Federal Register notice, FDA said that while there were "a few comments on the draft guidance," the final guidance contains "no changes … except for one correction to a technical error regarding influenza taxonomy."
The guidance is immediately in effect.

Die International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) ist die Internationale Vereinigung bibliothekarischer Verbände und Einrichtungen (so auch die offizielle deutsche Bezeichnung). Gegründet wurde die IFLA 1927 in Edinburgh (Schottland). Die ersten Präsidenten waren Isak Collijn (1927–1931) und William Warner Bishop (1931–1936). Derzeit gibt es 1700 Mitglieder aus 150 Ländern, die etwa 500.000 Bibliotheken repräsentieren.

Zweck ist die Förderung und Entwicklung qualitativer Bibliotheks- und Informationsdienste aller Art, Förderung des freien Zugangs zu Informationen und die Vertretung der Interessen des Bibliotheks- und Dokumentationswesens im Allgemeinen. Um dieses Ziel zu erreichen, veröffentlicht die IFLA Publikationen, darunter die viermal jährlich erscheinende Fachzeitschrift, organisiert Seminare und Workshops sowie den jährlich im August stattfindenden Weltkongress (WLIC). Während des Weltkongresses findet jährlich die IFLA-Generalversammlung der Mitglieder statt, die laut IFLA-Statuten das höchste Lenkungsgremium der Vereinigung ist.

Die Organisation arbeitet mit anderen internationalen Organisationen wie der UNESCO und der Weltorganisation für geistiges Eigentum (WIPO) zusammen und hat Beobachterstatus bei den Vereinten Nationen. Die Interessen des Bibliotheks- und Informationsbereichs werden außer von der IFLA auch durch das European Bureau of Library, Information and Documentation Associations (EBLIDA) vertreten. Die IFLA ist ein Gründungsmitglied der Kulturschutzorganisation Blue Shield International. In diesem Zusammenhang soll (- oft gemeinsam mit der UNESCO bzw. den Vereinten Nationen) der nationale und internationale Schutz von Bibliotheken als Teil des kulturellen Erbes bei Kriegen, bewaffneten Konflikten oder Katastrophen sichergestellt werden.

Die Zentrale befindet sich in Den Haag, Regionalbüros gibt es in Dakar, Singapur und Rio de Janeiro. Die sieben offiziellen Sprachen der IFLA, in denen sich die Mitglieder auf Konferenzen und bei Besprechungen verständigen, sind Arabisch, Chinesisch, Deutsch, Englisch, Französisch, Russisch und Spanisch. Derzeitige IFLA-Präsidentin ist seit 2021 Barbara Lison, Direktorin der Stadtbibliothek Bremen, die das Amt bis 2023 innehat.

Die schwedische Bibliotheksfachzeitschrift Biblioteksbladet vom November 2022 beleuchtet aktuelle Herausforderungen innerhalb der IFLA.

Abteilungen

Die IFLA ist in acht Abteilungen (Divisions) gegliedert:
 Div I : Allgemeine wissenschaftliche Bibliotheken
 Div II: Spezialbibliotheken
 Div III: Bibliotheken für die breite Öffentlichkeit
 Div IV: Bibliographische Kontrolle
 Div V: Sammlung und Dienstleistungen
 Div VI: Management und Technik
 Div VII: Ausbildung und Forschung
 Div VIII: Regionale Aktivitäten.

Des Weiteren unterteilen sich diese Abteilungen in 45 Sektionen. In den Sektionen wird ein großer Teil der fachlichen Arbeit geleistet: So werden z. B. die Fachveranstaltungen während der WLIC durch die Sektionen eigenständig geplant und durchgeführt, die Sektionen führen Vorkonferenzen für ihre Themenbereiche durch, veranstalten eigene Arbeitstreffen (z. B. die sog. Mid-Term-Meetings) oder erstellen Veröffentlichungen. Geleitet werden die Sektionen durch eine Lenkungsgruppe, das "Standing Committee", für das alle zwei Jahre Wahlen durchgeführt werden. Neben den Sektionen gibt es Ausschüsse zu den Haupttätigkeitsfeldern (Core Activities) der Organisation. Dazu zählen unter anderem das Free Access to Information and Freedom of Expression Committee, das Copyright and other Legal Matters Committee und die IFLA-CNDL Alliance for Bibliographic Standards.

IFLA-Weltkongress und IFLA-Präsidentschaft
Die IFLA organisiert jedes Jahr einen Weltkongress, auf der auch die Generalversammlung der Mitglieder als das oberste Verbandsgremium tagt. Der erste Kongress fand 1928 in Rom statt. Seitdem fand der Kongress jährlich statt, mit Unterbrechungen 1940–1946 wegen des Zweiten Weltkriegs und 2020 wegen der COVID-19-Pandemie.

IFLA-Präsidenten amtieren seit 2003 für jeweils zwei Jahre. Sie werden gewählt und sind zwei Jahre lang vor ihrer eigentlichen Präsidentschaft "President-elect".

Nationalkomitee der IFLA in Deutschland (IFLA-NK)
Das Nationalkomitee der IFLA in Deutschland (IFLA-NK) stellt das Bindeglied zwischen internationalen und nationalen Fachgemeinden dar. Mitglieder des IFLA-NK sind der Bibliotheksdachverband BID, der dbv, die Berufsverbände BIB und VDB, die Bibliotheken DNB, BSB, SBB-PK und SLUB, das Goethe-Institut, die Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Spezialbibliotheken (ASpB), die Vorsitzende des IFLA-Nationalkomitees und ihre Stellvertreterin sowie das Sekretariat des IFLA-Nationalkomitees, welches allerdings kein Stimmrecht hat. Das IFLA-NK versucht, sicherzustellen, dass deutsche Bibliotheken angemessen in IFLA-Gremien vertreten sind und dass sich bibliothekarischer Nachwuchs für die Arbeit der IFLA interessiert. Um diese Ziele zu erreichen, organisiert das IFLA-NK regelmäßige Informationsveranstaltungen auf bibliothekarischen Kongresse und Tagungen, sorgt für Übersetzungen von IFLA-Materialien ins Deutsche und bietet Unterstützungs- und Vernetzungsleistungen für in Gremien tätige Aktive an.

Emanuel Backs Campaign Against Chick-Fil-A in Chicago
by News Editor

Politico – Rahm Emanuel on Wednesday said he supports a Chicago alderman's plan to block the opening of a new Chick-fil-A location in the city because the president opposes gay marriage.
Alderman Proco "Joe" Moreno told the Chicago Tribune on Tuesday he is against the fast food chain opening a store in his neighborhood and that he would deny the restaurant a permit in the 1st Ward. Emanuel told the Tribune in a statement he agreed with Moreno, noting "Chick-fil-A values are not Chicago values."

Q: RuntimeError: cannot open, when using arcpy outside ArcGIS When I ran the below code, I got a runtimeerror: can't open the shapefile. The file was not occupied by ArcGIS. I even restarted the computer, but it still gave me the error. However, I can run the code in the built-in python with ArcGIS. Why?

Every location has its own peculiarities: doors, windows, access dimensions, power supply, water supply, floor, ceiling and lighting etc. These all impinge on the kiln selection and the final placement of the kiln itself. Remember to check all access routes are wide enough to fit the dimensions of your intended purchase e.g. doors, hallways etc. For example, one customer neglected to measure the width of her lift doors and this resulted in extra charges - the kiln was finally delivered through an upper floor window using a crane!
Preferably kilns should be sited in a separate room or area on appropriate flooring (taking into consideration the weight of the kiln). There should be adequate clearance between the kiln and the walls and ceiling. Kilns should be sited with due regard to ventilation and heating, mechanical hazards, means of access, lighting and noise etc. The Health & Safety Executive have issued guidelines on the "Safe use of kilns in schools and craft studios".
Ceramic kilns are essentially simple and safe to use, provided that the proper controls and safety devices are fitted and that the safe method of working is fully understood. It makes sense to be able to choose from a range of kilns where your particular environmental conditions can be accommodated.
We strongly recommend that a qualified electrician confirms your chosen destination has an appropriate power supply - this should be done prior to ordering your kiln.


This charming lighthouse with living quarters is remarkably handcrafted from solid mahogany. With detailed railings and tower, multiple coats of high gloss finish add a deep wood grain. Dimensions: 14"H x 7"W.
I love it and am delighted to present it as a gift. Thank you.
I purchased this Light House as a gift for someone. It looked cool in the picture, but I was surprised how slick it looked once I got it. Fast shipping by the way, hard to get packages in a rural area. Anyway, it looks pretty sick. I am sure the person I am giving this to will be stunned.
Gift for wife. She loved the quality. We live at the beach and fits in well.
I bought as a gift for a friend and she loved it, very nice.


If you read the Business Startup Page, you'll know playing with financials is one of my favorite aspects of being a business advisor. So today, my first post, we're going to talk a little about financials, the balance sheet specifically. Along with that, I'll provide you with a pro forma balance sheet template, which you'll find to the left, and walk you through completing it.
Before we do that, let's talk put a definition on the word pro forma. Pro forma is a Latin term which means "for the sake of form." In plain English, it's a form that's provided as a courtesy. You might hear lenders or maybe even your advisor mention preparing a pro forma for your business loan. Really, they're just asking for a set of financial projections.
When I prepare a set of financial projections or a pro forma, I like to start with the balance sheet. That is after I've gathered all the pertinent information. The purpose of a balance sheet is to give an overview of a business's financial status. It shows the overall health of the business. The template I provided shows two years, which allows one to see a bit of change over time.
Balance sheets are broken into 3 main areas: assets, liabilities, and equity. Assets refer to anything that the company owns of value. Liabilities are the obligations the company owes. Think of liabilities as the debt incurred to buy assets. Equity is the companies net worth. That is, after you subtract the liabilities from the assets, you end up with a net worth.
At the bottom of the form, you'll see one more calculation, which I've labeled balance check. Keep in mind, a balance sheet is supposed to balance, which is why it's called a balance sheet. If you've entered all your numbers correctly, your balance check should equate to 0. It's calculated by taking the Total Debt & Equity and subtracting the Total Assets. If your balance sheet doesn't balance, you've got a major problem.
So, let's look at each section separately.
Assets are divided into current, fixed, and intangibles. Think of current assets as those items that'll be depleted within a year. For example, your inventory should be constantly revolving. You don't want things sitting on the shelf for years at a time. In fact, the higher turnover for inventory, usually the better. Accounts receivables refer to money owed to you. It might be lines of credits you extend to customers. Other current assets might include prepaid items, such as insurance and cash.
Your fixed assets are those items you keep longer than a year… land, furniture, vehicles. Earlier I mentioned liabilities pay for assets. One important tip I want you to keep in mind. Pay for current assets with current liabilities and fixed assets with long-term liabilities. For example, you wouldn't want to pay for a $30,000 piece of land with your credit card, which is short-term debt.
Intangibles are a type of long-term assets that are not physical in nature. They might come as patents, rights, goodwill, or other valuable forms. Intangibles are one of the most difficult items to try to finance. Often times the buyer is responsible for paying for intangible assets out of pocket.
Liabilities – How did you cover your assets?
On the upper right side of the template, you'll find the liabilities. Like assets, current liabilities are those debts to be paid within a year. They can include short-term notes payable to the bank, lines of credits, accounts payable, loans from grandma… You would even classify tax debt as a current liability.
Long-term liabilities are those obligations that take longer than a year to pay. Ideally, you'll use long-term liabilities to purchase fixed assets. Often times the item you purchase with long-term depreciates about the same rate as the terms of the loans. Debt to officers and shareholders also are accounted in long-term debt.
The last section refers to the business equity, which I mentioned briefly above. You arrive at the equity by subtracting the total liabilities from the total assets. Equities include money you've injected as owners, profits, as well as retained earnings. Retained earnings refers to a part of the net earnings not paid out to the owners. Retained earnings can represent a loss or gain. One thing to keep in mind, retained earnings don't necessarily equate to cold hard cash in the bank.
So that pretty much sums up a balance sheet. I personally whipped up the balance sheet template specifically for this post. The template is free to use as you please. Nothing in it is protected, so fill free to change things to meet your needs.
What type of tools have you found useful in your business?
Download a copy of your balance sheet from the Resource Library. Use the link below.
Very simple template, but can definitely be useful for starter companys who don´t need complex financial systems. If I may suggest I would like to see you add more sheets with automated functions, that would be helpful aswell.
Have a great day, and Ill be sure to come back and check ou this page again.
Alex, I completely agree with the template being simple. There's really not much to a balance sheet. You can add more line items (or subtract, for that matter), but it really comes down to assets, liabilities, and equity. I definitely wouldn't call it a financial system though. It's just a simple balance sheet that could be used at any stage of a company's life. Other than formatting, you'd generate something similar to this out of QuickBooks. For someone who needs a full set of financials statements, they're definitely going to need more than a balance sheet.
I use a proprietor workbook for the financials I create for my clients. It's extremely thorough, and I've yet to encounter a banker who wasn't impressed with the details. It'd take some time for me to develop something as complex as that workbook. However, I've been pondering creating something a little more simplistic and easy for a client to use. We'll see.
I love the clarity and simplicity of this post. It may not be everyone's favourite topic but one thing is for certain, a clear understanding of business finance is an essential for every successful entrepreneur. Yes we can all pay an accountants to bring our accounts up to date for income tax purposes, but unless we understand the basics, we are leaving profitability to chance. Very helpful.
Penny, you make a good point about your accountant being able to prepare your financial statements for you. In fact, I prepare financial statements for my client. However, I think this method is a bit of a pet peeve for bankers, as your accountant and/or business advisor isn't going to be the one sitting in front of the bank explaining the different aspects of the financial statements…. you (the owner) are. Likewise, your accountant and/or business advisor isn't going to be the ones suffering financially because you made poor financial decisions because of lack of understanding of the business financials.
Good post Renee, insightful. But looking at it from a different perspective do you not feel there are one too many articles on finance written in a similar manner; a little text book like almost. If you could find a way to write your post in a very exciting (or different manner) this could lead to more engagement with your information consumer. It truly would be innovative. The Dummies collection is an example of books that engage their audience in a different way.
That's very possible, Rahul. I work in a very academic environment and spend a bit of time teaching in classes and individuals in my role as a business advisor. As such, I can see my writing coming off as educational or textbook-like, as you describe it. Is it bad? Well, it certainly depends on the textbook. 🙂 I've encountered some magnificent textbooks that are very engaging. I've also had my fill of dry reads, which make me wish I'd not taken a class.
One thing I will mention is everyone has a different style of writing. And everyone has different preferences in terms of likes and dislikes. No matter how I write, I will never, ever please everyone. Rather than mimic the style of another, I choose to use my own style and embrace it. That doesn't mean I can't glean information from other sources and incorporate what I do like. 🙂 As this website evolves, I imagine my style will also.
So, I encourage you to check back from time to time and see how we're doing.
I found your explanation of each of the balance sheet sections very easy to understand. Anyone could understand what each meant and what items were included in the total.
As an Accountant I find that these simple to follow pages are a great resource to give to beginner business owners so they can acquire and assess their projected worth.
As I say time and time again, I'm not an accountant (or a lawyer for that matter). So, it's nice to have an accountant chime in and offer support. You make a great point about using the balance sheet to assess a project worth. I've had bankers say they prefer a balance sheet over financial projections. Why? Because the balance sheet (particularly a historical one) shoes the health of a business. Whereas the projections are made up numbers of what could potentially happen.
This post is amazing. The template is so concise and easy to understand. That is so refreshing compared to the possibility of getting overwhelmed when it comes to finances.
Even though it can be overwhelming, it is so critical for all businesses, regardless of size, to keep good financial records.
I agree, Brandy. Understanding the different aspects of your financials are important. A lot of people leave all things financial up to their accountants. It's fine to have accountants do the work. They'll help make sure you're business stays on track. However, you'll still want to understand what they're doing. After all, you'll be the one making the financial decisions about your business, not your accountant.
Thanks for breaking down the pro formula. For a someone without a lot of formal finance experience this breakdown was very helpful. I'll be using this in the future for sure. The tip about paying for current assets with current liabilities and fixed assets with long-term liabilities is great. I learned a lot from this and will check out the rest of your financial forms. I am a budget blogger @ realgirlfinance and enjoy reading about all areas of finance.
Thanks for stopping by, Cathy! Paying for assets with the right type of liabilities his huge. I had a customer the other day who mentioned taking out a credit card to pay for some long-term assets. Just the thought of it fills me with anxiety. Often times long-term assets are the larger purchases that double as collateral. Since they're their own collateral, they're often eligible for better interest rates. Credit cards are typically non-secure debt, which tends to have the worst interest rates. Even without matching up depreciation, I would think business owners would want the best deals possible. In my opinion, even a line of credit is usually better than a generic credit card.

T20 World Cup: Scan done, Hardik Pandya fit to go for New Zealand game
ANI | Oct 25, 2021, 10.18 PM IST
DUBAI (UAE): In what comes as good news for Team India ahead of the next game against New Zealand in the ICC T20 World Cup, all-rounder Hardik Pandya is fit for the match after hurting his shoulder in the opening encounter against Pakistan on Sunday.
Speaking to ANI, sources in the know of developments said the all-rounder is already feeling better. "There is no issue and he is already feeling good. It was just a precautionary scan and the team management didn't wish to take a chance as yesterday was only the first game of the tournament," the source said.
T20 World Cup: Pakistan break India jinx in style
The 10-wicket win, Pakistan's first in this format and their first victory against India in World Cup in 13 attempts, was engineered with such consummate ease, driven to fruition with such complete mastery, that it has lifted the curtain on a new era in this storied rivalry. From being masters of the chaotic for decades, Pakistan turned to masters of the clinical in one night.
Hardik had been taken for scans after he received a blow on his shoulder during the game against Pakistan.
T20 World Cup: Hardik Pandya injures shoulder while batting, sent for precautionary scans
The Indian team's troubles on Sunday were compounded after all-rounder-turned-specialist batter Hardik Pandya injured his shoulder while batting during the T20 World Cup game against Pakistan, after which he did not come out to field.
"Hardik Pandya was hit on his right shoulder while batting. He has now gone for scans," the BCCI's media team had informed.
Rizwan (79*) and Babar (68*) didn't give any chance to India bowlers to come on top as the two batsmen dominated the proceedings. Pakistan chased down the target of 152 without losing a wicket as India looked clueless in their opening match.
This was the first time that India lost a T20I by ten wickets. Coincidentally, this was also the first time that Pakistan won a T20I by ten wickets.
India will next square off against New Zealand on Sunday, October 31 while Pakistan will take on New Zealand on Tuesday.


The Spanish Higher Education System has undergone a great transformation in recent years. One of the main changes, according to Delgado (2011), is the new concept of teaching, which now seeks the professionalism of learning in order to find the accurate preparation of students for their future insertion in the labour market through the entire adaptation of the educational process.
Furthermore, it is not possible to ignore the presence of new technologies in all professional fields, which makes it inevitable to introduce the different technological advances in classrooms so that students can achieve ICT skills that prepare them for their future. This is especially inescapable in the subjects of Graphic Expression.
The main objective of this research is to find out in which degrees from the University of Seville (US) and the University of A Coruña (UDC) that contain any subject related to Graphic Expression it is foreseen the acquisition of ICT competence, whether it is reached, and to compare the differences that are noticed between both universities.
An analysis of the official teaching guides was carried out, with regards to each subject related to Graphic Expression. These guides are used by professors for the development of their teaching work, and they have been downloaded from the website of both State Universities.
The sample consists of 45 subjects belonging to 19 undergraduate degrees from the US and 27 belonging to 14 undergraduate degrees from the UDC.
The results show that in the US 73.3 per cent of the sample contemplates the acquisition of the ICT competence, although only 62.2 per cent reflects them in its contexts. However, the responsible teaching staff does not use any appropriate methodology for its achievement (48%) and does not use evaluation strategies to verify whether this competence has been acquired (46.6%).
In the 14 degrees studied from UDC, 27 subjects have been contemplated, from which 66.6 per cent take into account the acquisition of ICT competence, although only 18 per cent of the teaching staff provides specific teaching methods to work on it. The 51.8 per cent predicted it among its contents, but only the 11.1 percent used a specific type of evaluation to verify their acquisition.
Graphic Expression is a basic subject in the teaching-learning of technical careers, and ICT teaching should have become unavoidable to its teaching. It is therefore unjustifiable that in these subjects the acquisition of ICT competence is not unanimously contemplated, nor teaching methods or evaluation strategies with regards to its achievement. The lack of adaptation of teaching methods and the systems of evaluation with regards to the achievement of any kind of competence will not develop the appropriate adaptation to the demanded educational model.
