2021 News Releases
RevoluGROUP Canada Inc. Lebanese Red Cross Selects MillionBridges as one of its Payment Providers
Vancouver, BC – RevoluGROUP Canada Inc. (TSX-V: REVO), (Frankfurt: IJA2) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that partner MillionBridges has been selected as one of the Payment Providers for The Lebanese Red Cross (LRC). The Lebanese Red Cross is part of the International Movement of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, the world's largest and most widely recognized network of volunteers. Through the Central Bank issued PSD2 banking license, RevoluPAY provides financial services to its partner MillionBridges.
About the Lebanese Red Cross:
The Lebanese Red Cross (LRC) is a humanitarian organization that acts during times of war and disaster as an auxiliary to the medical service of the Lebanese Army. Its headquarters are in the Lebanese capital city of Beirut. Founded in 1945, the organization comprises more than 7,000 members/volunteers and 360 staff. The society works with the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent (IFRC) and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), and is supported by several other National Societies. The LRC also works with the relevant components of the Lebanese authorities, directly with U.N. agencies and other major NGOs.
CEO of MillionBridges, Fadi Chidiac, commented, "We are both humbled and honored to have been chosen by the Lebanese Red Cross as the Payment Provider during the current humanitarian crisis that has engulfed our country. We also thank our exclusive financial partner, RevoluPAY, for their support and financial technology, which is allowing us to achieve our common goals."
RevoluPAY Humanitarian
Shareholders are aware of the proactiveness of specific management figures who have personally furthered humanitarian and philanthropic activities over many decades. RevoluGROUP corporately pursues a similar mantra through an internal division known as "RevoluPAY Humanitarian" as an extension of these personal historical values. This division identifies sectors in which the Company may provide its financial technology, PSD2 banking license, and corporate support at reduced transaction rates for Not-For-Profit organizations and NGO's helping people in need, homeless, refugees, and victims of natural disasters, wars, and famines. In addition, the Company expects to reveal additional international efforts concerning significant Humanitarian aid partnerships through material and financial logistical assistance to people worldwide who need help.
RevoluPOS Includes Four Major Currencies
Further to the news release dated the 18th of January 2021, the Company has worked intensively on readying RevoluPOS for penetration into numerous sectors in multiple international markets. From today, the free downloadable App embraces switchable direct credit or debit card payments in USD, EUR, GBP and $CA. RevoluPOS is a POS ("Point of Sale") system linked to RevoluPAY, available free for Apple & Android devices, enabling anyone with a mobile device to accept digital payments worldwide. Conceived principally to bring the developing world into the 21st century, RevoluPOS also appeals to small businesses in developed nations who wish to expand multicurrency payment acceptance. RevoluGROUP has pinpointed a budding and untapped sector consisting of small to medium-sized enterprises excluded from the current digital payment cycle. Whether these be small market-stall traders in underdeveloped nations, a corner coffee shop on Mainstreet, or village convenience stores, many small business owners cannot obtain, or local banks are disinclined to provide, electronic payment mechanisms. As the world races towards a cashless society, especially during the recent COVID pandemic, a means to integrate even the most underprivileged into the cashless society is a collective imperative. By adding these new currencies, the Company expects to roll out white-label branded versions of RevoluPOS to more prominent international merchants and provide worldwide online retailers with an alternative merchant solution.

Fr. Fahey was born in Ireland in 1883. At seventeen, he entered the Holy Ghost Fathers at Grignon-Orly, located near Paris in France. He made his profession in 1907. Further educated at the Gregorian University in Rome, he was ordained in 1910, taking his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the Academy of St. Thomas Aquinas. In 1912 he received his Ph.D. in Theology from the Gregorian University. That year he returned to Ireland and was appointed Director of Scholastics and Professor of Philosophy at the Irish Province of the Holy Ghost Congregation in Dublin. He served as chaplain at an internment camp in Switzerland towards the end of World War I. Otherwise, his residence remained in Ireland until his death in 1954. He spoke German, French, and Italian.

Give it a swirl. The beautiful faceted rhodochrosite gemstone featured in the center of this Sterling Silver ring makes a stunning statement, surrounded by Carolyn Pollack's signature ropes and swirls filigree. The elongated design gracefully adorns your finger.


1. When running Snort IDS why might there be no alerts?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each approach? Advantages of an IPS waiting until it has all the information it needs is that any initial attempts made leading up to a full exploit of your network could be stopped and the attacker would not have any indication on which part of the attempted attack was effective. The disadvantage of waiting until the IPS has what it needs is that packets allowed to get through could possibly create a back door or any additional unexpected damages to the network that could result in future vulnerabilities.
Advantages of an IPS allowing packets through based on statistics is that additional rules could be added to block any traffic attempting to exploit a vulnerability as it occurs. A disadvantage of allowing packets through is the same as allowing packets through until the IPS has what it needs. Packets that get to the network could create additional vulnerabilities.
9. So, the "bad guy" decides to do a Denial of Service on your Intrusion Prevention System.
At least two things can happen, the system can allow all traffic through (without being checked) or can deny all traffic until the system comes back up. What are the factors that you must consider in making this design decision?

-> Its good to serve now but the taste enriches the longer it stays.
Note: The mangoes are really delicate so when string be cautious that you don't break the pieces.

-> In a blender blend pearl onion, green chili, pepper, ginger, garlic, yogurt, vinegar & salt as required.
-> Marinate the chicken with this mix and keep it aside for 1 hour.
-> In a non-stick skillet, heat the required oil then add the onion.
-> Statute the onion till golden brown, add coconut, tomato, gharam masala, chili powder, turmeric powder & stir for few min.
-> Add the marinated chicken to the skillet.
-> Add a little water, cover and cook for 1/2 hr.
->Taste it and adjust the proportions of the ingredients to your liking.
->Cook in low flame until the chicken is well cooked.
->Garnish with coriander leaves and serve.

The newest colorway of the fifth edition of Derrick Rose's signature shoe from adidas will be the "Home" colorway that drops tomorrow, November 6th. Worn by Rose at Madison Square Garden during the Bulls season opener last week, the "Home" colorway of his new shoe is a predominantly white version to match the Bulls' home uniforms. Utilizing a breathable mesh around the laces, surrounded by white patent leather around the toe box and a full black and white speckled midsole/ankle piece, the Rose 5 "Home" is the most stylistically advanced release of the 5 we've seen so far. Red is responsible for the predominant accents on the shoe's laces, heel tab, and fluorescent outsole while the Rose branding on the heel and inner lining are black. The Rose 5 visibly incorporates adidas' revolutionary boost technology in the midsole.

It's inspiring to see all that Kevin Durant has accomplished by being such a good guy overall. In typical humble fashion, Kevin Durant puts his team on his back with this version of the Nike KD VI. This edition dubbed "Home 2" has a similar pattern and graphic detailing of the Nike KD VI "Away 2," which dropped a couple months back. This sneaker is dressed in a color combo of a silver upper with accents of volt neon and light blue, which is louder and more vibrant than the previous release.
Nike Basketball is back with a brand new "Home" colorway for Kevin Durant for the second half of the season. Officially, Pure Platinum/Vivid Blue/Volt/Night Factory, the newest KD VI features an articulate maze-like patterned print that gives the shoe some character. The KD VI "Home" colorway goes on sale this Saturday, February 22nd at House of Hoops by Foot Locker stores and Footlocker.com (starting at 8am EST). Cop a pair for $ 130. To see which stores are getting this release visit the Launch Locator and let us know what you think of the shoe in the comments.


Lincoln drivers have had a day of misery on the city's roads after a crash and a series of roadworks ground traffic to a halt.
A car flipped onto its roof on the A15 heading out of Lincoln at around 10.30am on Saturday, July 22 and roadworks on the A57 has seen journey times to get through the city centre bloat to over an hour in some cases.
Fed-up drivers have taken to social media to air their anger.
One wrote on facebook: "It's taken me an hour and twenty minutes to get from Monks Road to Bracebridge Heath!"
Angela Drakes, commenting on Lincolnshire Live's crash post on facebook, said: "I eventually turned round and came home before I got to the point where I wouldn't have been able to."
"This is why we always go the other way so we don't get stuck in traffic," added Nicolle Taylor.
And Matthew Evans wrote: "All traffic lights and keep clear areas are being ignored. Stay safe out there people."
The A57 Norman Street is shut in both directions due to major roadworks between A15 Melville Street and St Mary's Street as part of the work on the Lincoln Transport Hub project, as is the A57 Oxford Street between Canwick Road and St Mary's Street for the same reason.
Going on public transport was not helping either.
Stagecoach East Midlands, which runs services across the county, said it was hit with major delays too.
At 3pm, conditions were easing, according to the same bus company.

Senate Votes to Strip Russia of Trade Status, House to Follow
© Bloomberg. A worker operates a binding machine as lengths of steel rod are secured ready for shipping at the Oskol electrometallurgical plant, operated by Metalloinvest Holding Co., in Stary Oskol, Russia, on Friday, Nov. 26, 2021. Iron ore prices rebounded from last week's pandemic-driven losses on bets the impact of a new coronavirus variant may not be as severe as initially feared.
(Bloomberg) — The U.S. Senate voted unanimously to strip normal trade relation status from Russia and Belarus, sending the White House-backed legislation to the House for a vote expected later Thursday.
The trade legislation, passed on a rare 100-0 vote, would put Russia and Belarus in the same category as pariah states such as North Korea and Cuba, and adds to the growing list of economic barriers erected by the U.S. and its allies to punish Russian President Vladimir Putin's government over the assault on Ukraine. The bill allows the U.S. to impose large tariff increases on goods from Russia and Belarus.
Under the legislation, the tariffs on iron and some steel products could be raised to 20% from 0%. Plywood could face a 50% levy and some reaction engines could have import taxes of 35%, according to a Senate Democratic aide.
"No nation whose military is committing war crimes deserves free trade status with the United States," Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on the floor Thursday morning.
President Joe Biden last month already banned imports of signature Russian products including oil, gas, vodka, seafood and industrial diamonds.
The trade bill was delayed in the Senate for about a week because of a hold up from Senator Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, about the wording of an expansion of the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act, which was embedded in the bill. Other squabbles among senators also delayed the bill. Lawmakers ultimately reached a deal after weeks of haggling.
That provision would authorize the Biden administration to impose further sanctions on Russian officials for human rights violations. Paul wanted the legislation, which is named for a Russian lawyer who died in custody after investigating tax fraud, to be more specific about the types of transgressions that would trigger sanctions. He agreed to stop blocking the bill after reaching a compromise with Senate leaders.
The House overwhelmingly passed the trade measure earlier in March, but revisions in the Senate mean the legislation will need to go back to the House for another vote.
All House lawmakers except for eight Republicans voted to sever trade ties with Russia and Belarus, which has hosted some of the Russian troops who invaded Ukraine.
By mid-March, a quarter of the World Trade Organization's 164 members — collectively representing 58% of the global gross domestic product — were poised to stop treating Russia as a so-called most-favored-nation under WTO rules.
Besides the U.S., the list includes the European Union's 27 members, Japan, the U.K., Canada, South Korea and Australia.

Q: List of rails build in handy methods data: { disable_with: 'Working...', confirm: 'XXX' } I can't find documentation  for a feature of rails - when you create a link_to or etc. you can pass these  params and ujs would take there... but i can't find a list of these methods for rails 3.X. could you help me or give me an insight on where to look ?

A: If you're looking for UJS functionality for specific helpers... I highly recommend using API Dock. I get a lot of extra mileage out of the comments there. For example, look up link_to and check out the comments for extra info. Then, look up button_tag, which is where the disable_with data attribute is listed.
But, ultimately, it sounds like what you're looking for is a list of what all UJS hooks rails has. This Rails Guide will help: http://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/working_with_javascript_in_rails.html -- and it should also point you to the rails.js file that gets the work done: https://github.com/rails/jquery-ujs/blob/master/src/rails.js.

In the Republic of Korea (ROK), the notified incidence of tuberculosis in foreign-born individuals (NITFBI) has increased recently, as has the rate of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and rifampicin-resistant (RR) tuberculosis in foreigners staying in the ROK. As Jeju Province in ROK has a no-visa entry policy, control programs for NITFBI should be consolidated. The aim was to evaluate the status of NITFBI, with a focus on the distribution of MDR/RR tuberculosis by nationality.
Data on tuberculosis incidence in individuals born in Jeju Province and in foreign-born individuals were extracted from the Korean Statistical Information Service of Statistics Korea, and the Infectious Disease Surveillance Web Statistics of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, respectively.
Among all notified incident cases of tuberculosis, the proportion of NITFBI increased from 1.46% in 2011 to 6.84% in 2017. China- and Vietnam-born individuals accounted for the greatest proportion of the 95 cases of NITFBI. Seven cases of MDR/RR tuberculosis were found, all involving patients born in China.
In Jeju Province, ROK, NITFBI might become more common in the near future. Countermeasures for controlling active tuberculosis in immigrants born in high-risk nations for tuberculosis should be prepared in Jeju Province, since it is a popular tourist destination.
Key words: Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Antitubercular agents, Drug resistance, Disease management, Internationality
Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the top 10 global causes of death, killing around 1.3 million individuals in 2017 [1]. Thanks to concerted international efforts, the incidence of TB has been decreasing at the rate of 2% per year globally [1], as well as in the Republic of Korea (ROK), for the last few decades [2]. Meanwhile, the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and rifampicin-resistant (RR) TB has become one of the biggest issues in international TB control, as 3.5% of first-time patients and 18.0% of patients with a history of TB are determined to have either MDR or RR TB [1]. In particular, Chinese and Indian patients jointly account for 40% of the 160 000 global MDR cases [1], suggesting the importance of paying keen attention to TB patients from these countries.
The notified incidence of TB in foreign-born individuals (NITFBI) released by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) showed an increasing trend over a recent 5-year period, from 1213 cases in 2011 to 2569 cases in 2016 [3]. During the same period, the proportion of foreign nationals among MDR TB patients in ROK increased from 4.5% in 2011 to 20.5% in 2016 [2]. Given these circumstances, it is high time for ROK to develop more proactive measures to manage foreign-born MDR and RR patients.
Jeju Province has proclaimed itself to be a "Free International City," allowing foreigners to stay up to 30 days without a visa. As the island attracts more international visitors, it has become imperative that the government reinforce TB control policies and update the relevant guidelines. To this end, the present study examined the characteristics of foreign-born patients among new TB cases reported in Jeju Province and their drug resistance status.
This study included data from 2011 to 2017. In 2011, the nationality of TB patients began to be included in patient information as part of the National Tuberculosis Control Project, aimed at enhancing the nationwide public-private partnership in TB control [2].
The data used for the analysis of new TB patients among Jeju Province residents was the Tuberculosis Notification Status in ROK dataset, extracted from the Korean Statistical Information Service of Statistics Korea (http://kosis.kr/index/index.do). Statistics Korea has compiled the data that KCDC collected from public health centers and private clinics and hospitals across the nation. NITFBI in Jeju Province was defined as new TB cases reported in foreign-born patients whose residential address was in Jeju Province between 2011 and 2017. The data were derived from the Infectious Disease Surveillance Web Statistics of the KCDC (https://is.cdc.go.kr). Cases determined as MDR or RR through a drug resistance test were defined as drug-resistant TB.
The percentage of NITFBI in Jeju Province was calculated by dividing the number of foreign-born TB cases notified between 2011 and 2017 by the number of total notified TB cases during the same period. The 95% confidence intervals were derived using the binominal distribution method. Trends in the annual changes in the proportion of NITFBI were analyzed compared to the 2011 data. No further statistical analysis was performed, as the number of NITFBI cases was less than 30 each year. The institutional review board waived review of this study since only secondary data without any personal information were used.
The total number of notified newly-occurring cases of TB between 2011 and 2017 in Jeju Province was 2825, among which 95 (3.36%) were in foreign-born individuals (Table 1). The proportion of NITFBI has risen since 2011, growing by 1.77 times to 6.84% in 2017.
The general characteristics of the 95 NITFBI cases between 2011 and 2017 are demonstrated in Table 2. Patients in their 20s accounted for the largest proportion, followed by those in their 30s, together comprising 69.5% (66 of 95) of cases. There was no significant difference by gender. Chinese and Vietnamese nationals comprised the majority of cases, accounting for 69.5% (53 of 80) of all NITFBI cases, excluding those with unknown nationality. In 79 (83.2%) cases, the patients said they had never previously received anti-TB therapy at the time of notification, while 14 (14.7%) patients answered that they had.
Among the 82 cases where a smear test was performed for TB diagnosis, 22 (26.8%) had positive results (Table 3). Drug-resistance tests were positive in 7 cases (7.4%; 6 MDR, 1 RR), all of whom were Chinese nationals. This means that 17.9% of the 39 Chinese patients had drug-resistant TB.
To summarize the results, the proportion of NITFBI in Jeju Province increased from 1.46% of all notified incident cases of TB in 2011 to 6.84% in 2017, and approximately half were in Chinese and Vietnamese nationals. A total of 7 cases were determined to be drug-resistant, all which were in Chinese nationals, indicating that 17.9% of all 39 Chinese NITFBI cases were drug-resistant.
It is notable that the number of NITFBI cases surged by 3.7 times from just 7 to 26 during the period from 2011 to 2017, while the total number of TB incidents was stable or decreased, as seen in Table 1. The number of foreign-born TB cases is expected to continue to grow, considering that Jeju Province is a popular tourist destination with a visa waiver program, attracting more and more visitors from abroad.
Most NITFBI are from high-TB-risk countries [4], with a transmission rate of TB of 50 or more per 100 000 population, and hold permits for work or study in ROK. The majority of the group was aged between 20 and 39, including individuals who were likely to be residing in Jeju Province for work or study. The key to managing incident TB cases in foreign-born individuals in the ROK is to understand and apply the 2018 National Guideline for Tuberculosis Control to visitors from high-TB-risk nations. Record-keeping regarding the personal information of foreign-born TB patients should also be strengthened, since 15 (15.8%) NITFBI cases were of unknown nationality.
The fact that all drug-resistant patients among foreign nationals were from China should also be considered in efforts to control TB in Jeju Province. This result is in line with a World Health Organization report [1] suggesting that 40% of all global drug-resistant TB cases are in either Chinese or Indian nationals. Visitors from high-TB-risk nations requesting visas for a stay of more than 90 days should be required to submit a verification of TB clearance issued by a hospital designated by the Korean embassy before entry [4], and the embassy should ensure that the verification is accurate. The 2018 National Guideline for Tuberculosis Control should also be updated to include protocols on how to manage latent TB cases during their stay in the ROK.
Furthermore, active TB patients from high-TB-risk nations who enter the country with a short-term visa and extend their stay are potentially harmful. Despite being diagnosed as active TB patients, there is a potential risk that they may transmit drug-resistant TB to domestic residents during their stay of up to 90 days, in which case the cost of diagnosis and treatment would be covered by the municipal government, and patients may abuse this system. These cases are managed as "intensive care targets" by the National Guideline for Tuberculosis Control [4], but care only takes place after an active TB patient has been granted entry. Strengthened measures should be taken against active TB patients before their entry in order to fundamentally address the issue. Without such measures, the management of drug-resistant TB patients is unlikely to be successful, with potentially disastrous consequences [5].
The limitations of this study mainly relate to limitations in the data caused by the clinical characteristics of the disease. Individual patient information may vary at the time of data collection since it takes 2 months for Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture test results to be confirmed and 6 months for basic treatment. This is why the number of incident cases announced by the KCDC may not be consistent with the number of incident cases reported by the Jeju municipal government. The research team decided to use the municipal government data, considering the possibility of differences in the number of patients depending on the test and treatment periods and uncertainties in the statistical analysis. As a result, the annual KCDC data [3] reported a decline in the number of foreign-born TB patients in 2017 compared to the previous year, while Jeju Province has seen an increase from 12 to 26 during the same period. This discrepancy between the national and regional datasets is assumed to be the result of limitations in the data used for analysis, and the trends reported in this study should be confirmed through a further analysis of another dataset.
To conclusion, it is imperative that TB control measures and guidelines be updated and reinforced to effectively manage foreign-born active TB patients, in particular those aged 20-39 and those from high-TB-risk countries, as we have seen an increase in NITFBI and a greater potential risk of drug-resistant cases in Jeju Province. Stricter management policies should be put in place so that visitors' active TB status can be verified by qualified local hospitals.

Is It Best Time to Redesign the American Flag? 4 Facts About It
Many people are asking the same question: is it time to redesign the American Flag ? Let's examine the history and meaning behind the current American flag and explore whether change is warranted.
The American flag is a symbol of unity and freedom, making it one of the most recognizable symbols in the world. However, its design has not remained the same since 1777; there have been 27 official versions over the years. So why do people want to change it yet again?
The United States consists of many peoples from diverse backgrounds. As more sections of society desire to have their heritage represented on the national stage, they have pushed for changing the much beloved emblem – the American flag. Some modifications are subtle while some are more obvious.
The American Flag and Its Flying Rules
Redesigning America's Flag
Macy Gray Wants to Redesign American Flag to Reflect Modern U.S.
The Changing Meaning of the American Flag Under Trump

The American flag is a symbol of freedom and liberty that has been flown proudly since the United States was founded. It is a source of pride for many Americans, and it is seen as a representation of the country's values and ideals.
The flag consists of 13 alternating red and white stripes, which represent the original 13 colonies, and 50 white stars on a blue field, which represent the 50 states. The colors on the flag have special meanings: red stands for valor and bravery, white stands for purity and innocence, and blue stands for vigilance, perseverance, and justice.
When flying or displaying the American flag, there are certain rules to follow in order to show respect for this important symbol. For example, when raising or lowering the flag it should be done with care; it should never touch anything beneath it such as the ground or water; it should not be flown upside down unless there is an emergency; it should always be illuminated if displayed at night; and when folded after use, it should be done in a triangular shape with only the blue field showing. Following these rules helps ensure that all Americans can honor their nation's flag with dignity.
The American flag is a symbol of our nation's history and values, but it has become outdated and in need of a redesign. To address this issue, a series exploring bold ideas to revitalize and renew the American experiment has been created.
The cover animation for this series was designed by 2×4, while Andrew Kuo proposed a new flag that acknowledges the emotions that informed where our country has been and the spirit of where it may go. His design emphasizes joy and forgiveness as possibilities for the future.
In addition, Natasha Jen, Michelle Ando, and Veronica Höglund from Pentagram Design have also taken up the challenge to redesign the American flag. As graphic designers, they are working with existing elements such as stars and stripes to make small changes that can create a big impact.
Through their work, they hope to create an updated version of the American flag that still honors its past while looking towards its future.

Macy Gray is calling for a redesign of the American flag to better reflect the modern United States. In an op-ed written for MarketWatch, the "I Try" singer argued that the current version of Old Glory is "tattered, dated, divisive, and incorrect."
She believes that it's time to walk away from this outdated symbol and create something new that more accurately reflects the values of today's America.
Gray suggests that a redesigned flag should be inclusive and represent all Americans regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation. She also believes it should reflect our nation's commitment to justice and equality.
To achieve this goal, she proposes replacing the traditional red, white, and blue with colors that are more representative of our diverse population. Additionally, she suggests adding symbols such as a peace sign or dove to further emphasize our commitment to peace and harmony.
Ultimately, Gray hopes her proposal will lead to a new design for Old Glory that unites rather than divides us.
The American flag has long been a symbol of freedom and patriotism, but in recent years it has taken on a more partisan significance. Jim Carr is one example of this shift, having covered his Ford S.U.V. with a vinyl "skin" made from an enlarged color image of the American flag.
His vehicle stands out among the brown prairie landscape of Agate, Colorado, where he parks it most mornings on a remote interstate overpass. The blades of a nearby turbine farm turn slowly in the background, creating an interesting juxtaposition between the traditional symbol of America and its modern energy sources.
Under President Trump, the meaning of the American flag has become increasingly politicized. Supporters have embraced it as a sign of their loyalty to the president and his policies, while opponents have used it to express their opposition to those same policies.
This divide is evident even in places like Agate, Colorado, where Jim Carr's vehicle serves as both a reminder of America's past and an indication that its symbols are no longer universally accepted or understood.

Q. What is your learning from this journey?
I consider myself fortunate to have deep roots in education. My mother was a school principal and my observations of her since childhood has been an important stepping stone in the effective running of the Academics Department of JD Institute of Fashion Technology. I have learned that success is not overnight, rather the result of consistent, committed and focused work. While being consistent and working hard is important, what is equally important is to take each day as it comes. The longest and the most arduous of journeys begin with a single step, hence it is important to be consistent in following your passion.
Q. Designing education like fashion, interiors, jewellery etc are considered to be vocational streams, for those who aren't academically successful. Do you see this norm change?
As an educational institute, we are proud pioneers of setting several trends and changing perception for the profession on fashion designing. We were one of the first institutes in India to offer the full spectrum of courses in fashion, interiors, and jewellery design. While starting out, our former Founder and Executive Director, Mr. RC Dalal had a challenging task ahead of him of changing society's perception of fashion designing as glorified tailoring and positioning it as a coveted profession with ample opportunities. Today, JD Institute of Fashion Technology is one of the most sought-after fashion institutions in India. With the advent of technology and media influx, the world is becoming a smaller place allowing ample exposed to global fashion and trends. With society becoming more and more aware and fashionably evolved, design education is much sought after. Even schools are introducing art and design from primary school as it facilitates to discover and channelize an individual's talent.
Q. This is a creative field, and requires a lot of persistence, hard work and patience as well. What do you tell parents and students who look at this a means to earn quick money n fame?
We have observed many young students who enroll with us coming in with pre-existing notions and dreaming of becoming successful fashion designers overnight. At the beginning of their tenure with us, we undertake an orientation with students and parents alike and give them an insight into the ecosystem of the industry. Designing is not only limited to sketching and drawing, it is the art of applying design, aesthetics, and logic and transforming it into physical attire.
Q. A lot of institutions giving fashion designing education have international tie-ups giving global exposure. What is your opinion about this?
Fashion and design cannot be taught through books alone. It requires absorbing people, places, and culture which I believe are key influencers to fashion across the world. Ample exposure to these allow young creative minds the required inspiration and achieve new levels of originality. London has always been the nerve center of global fashion way ahead of its time. For over 29 years now, JD Institute of Fashion Technology has been pushing the boundaries of design education. With many firsts to our credit, JD Institute of Fashion Technology was the first fashion school to curate an international exchange program with London Research Programme. The program offers students to the global stage and places where design and fashion were born. Students receive first-hand, international exposure to the world of fashion, designers, art, and culture — thus giving them new knowledge, skills and vital inspiration to take their craft to the next level.
Q. How do you ensure your teaching staff is up-to-date with industry requirements to train students to be industry ready?
A famous saying goes, 'Teaching is a profession that creates all other professions'. At JD Institute of Fashion Technology, we are constantly endeavoring to equip our lecturers and teaching staff with the most up-to-date knowledge and skills. As a part of this, our faculty is provided with opportunities to enhance their own knowledge by participating in various seminars, conferences, workshops etc.
Q. Tell us about the innovative pedagogies you have introduced to make design learning more effective among your students?
The pedagogies followed at the institution are innovative enough to keep the students engrossed in learning and make the learning process more enjoyable. We do believe in having some serious fun. A lot of research projects are given to the students so that they can explore more, identify their strengths and weaknesses and can work accordingly. Teaching methodology includes interactive sessions, presentations, role plays, classroom activities, field trips, outdoor study along with the classroom lectures. Employing a variety of methodology to deliver the content ensures an effective understanding and leaving an imprint on the student's mind to help him/ her in the long run.
Q. What makes your institute a preferred choice than your competitors?
JD Institute of Fashion Technology offers a learning-friendly environment to the students. The lecturers are industry professionals who share their vast experience with the students. The students are also provided with a subscription of WGSN, so as to make them understand the international fashion scene. The academic knowledge is supplemented with industry visits, seminars, hands-on workshop and practical exposure. We offer a study tour to London whereby the students undertake projects on Fashion Styling and Visual Merchandising.
Q. What are the students/ faculty exchange programmes? How do they help your students/ faculty?
With our JD International Programme in London, our students undertake projects on fashion styling and visual merchandising under the mentorship of some major celebrity stylists.
Q. What is your vision for design education in India in the coming years?
We feel we have a lot of hidden creativity and craftsmanship skills across the country, we aim to provide the best education for the generation to understand functionality yet keeping sustainability in mind. However, timeless designs are made with the best understanding and knowledge of the long-standing history of textile, design stories, and an ancient legacy of culture. This can be achieved only if we acknowledge and work hand in hand with the untapped talent pool of skilled artisans and today's craftsmen. Our vision is to give recognition and honor to the country's innumerable skilled artisans, craftsmen, and weavers, and bring them to the center stage, who are almost on the verge of extinction because of lack of awareness and administrative support. Because we understand we need to educate our young design students about the importance of environmentally sustainable and green materials in the coming year.
Q. Lastly your advice to industry aspirants and to those who wish to take up entrepreneurship in the field?
For the industry aspirants who wish to become entrepreneurs should understand the aesthetics of arts and design. Believe that it's our social responsibility to make the best use of our knowledge and provide most functional and sustainable designs to make the world a better place to live and to bring life at more ease. Through this idea of work, you will be able to make a mark in the world, in the role of designers, artists and in other disciplines of creativity.

Last time we heard from Roland Emmerich about plans for a second Independence Day movie, he said that Fox was balking at putting up the money for Will Smith to be part of the film. At today's press day for 2012, I asked Emmerich both about the status of the funding and his reason for wanting to make the movie to begin with.
Emmerich had said not 10 minutes earlier, in a roundtable interview, that sequels were silly, but he says that Independence Day is different: "I think everybody has a defining moment or a defining film who works in this business. It's the one I think I will be remembered for. I kind of think it would be great to do."
As for why it's taken so long to get the sequel started, you can blame George W. Bush. "In Independence Day, it was about a king who leads his country into a fight against an outside invader. I didn't want to make that movie during the Bush years. It was not thought that George W. Bush would have made a great king. Now with Obama, it's another story."
He also confirmed that, as in the first film, the plot of Independence Day 2 would focus on the President and his efforts to lead the country. We know that Emmerich cast Danny Glover as the President in 2012 as a nod to Obama, but who knew the real President was the inspiration to bring Bill Pullman back as well?
In video below, Emmerich talks more about the funding troubles for the film and why Fox would hesitate to bring back Will Smith, even though Emmerich says plainly "I will not make the movie without Will Smith." He also talks about his plans to use new technology on the second film. Sounds like things are still at loggerheads in actually getting the movie going, but despite Emmerich's promise that 2012 will be his last disaster movie, we can probably count on Independence Day 2 coming along at some point.

A joint is a connection where two bones meet. Surgery – Surgical treatment can be an quick selection or a incredibly complicated determination.
The enormous health-related scientific studies in persons would say in all probability not BUT several puppy owners would say they entirely do. The puppy run with the 4 foot substantial fence was no obstacle for him and he appreciated getting the run of the yard. Nonsurgical approaches involve drugs to help relieve the soreness and inflammation of the hip joint. Take advantage of the likelihood although you can.
Ligaments and a joint capsule hold the bones together.When the joint will get broken by damage or an altered force due to improper alignment of the joint, there is bodily damage to the cells that make up the joint. There is no doubt in the truth that a dog is a man's very best pal. I am not right here to suggest any specific merchandise to you – I want to educate you what operates so you can make your special ideas up. Is your canine on an anti-inflammatory medicine this kind of as Metacam, rimadyl for dogs or Deramaxx? So, make certain you consider your puppy to an knowledgeable and renowned vet initially, and have it entirely checked to guarantee your dog is not struggling from any other ailment.
There are several varieties of arthritis, which can array from acute arthritis brought on by some traumatic occasion to the joints or a lot more typical, degenerative wear and tear due to previous age or overuse.

Some are for trimming or grooming your puppy in unique locations of their entire body and they can come in distinct sizes, some becoming for greater dogs, some for smaller canines. When canines reside their total lives with eating practically nothing but table scraps, they turn into obese and age a great deal quicker.

Dogs really feel soreness considerably like human beings do, and Rimadyl for dogs just might end up becoming what your pet puppy demands. It is the saliva that inflames human skin from a mosquito bite, not the bite itself. When genetics are the cause, this is termed main Glaucoma. Ear mites are a typical problem that will demand you to hold there ears clean and a few drops of ear treatment.
If you really feel it having scorching great it down with clipper coolant. Veterinarians are not completely confident what creates the difficulty in the to start with location. Pubic symphysiodesis is a further preventive surgical treatment that can be accomplished, but only on very younger dogs.
Remedies for canine arthritis assortment from organic dietary dietary supplements making use of chondroitin and glucosamine, to veterinary approved drugs for example rimadyl and Deramaxx. Usually a natural supplement is all that is necessary to assistance your canine. Still, you should really go over remedies with your canine's veterinarian just before proceding. Just observe your dog just after working out and it should be evident if your pet has overdone his or her exercise.
This is generally used as a prolonged term drug on canines. You might have indulged feeding your pet rich meals also frequently; or loved intense games of Frisbee with Rover for a handful of many years– but these practices have taken a toll on his joints. I invested really a bit of time hunting, and definitely there is loads of connected materials, but there is very little concerned only with arthritis juvenile rheumatoid remedy. Sometimes more aggressive solutions are wanted this kind of as surgical procedure.
