Grab your swimsuit. We're going to the swimming pool. A little bit of sport to get you going in the morning is good for you, isn't it?
On the UIB's campus there is a sports centre with an Olympic pool, covered pavilion, fitness room, paddle tennis and tennis courts and a football field with artificial grass. What's more, throughout the whole year you can enjoy a healthy variety of instructor-led activities. Get moving so that you can get in shape and be the envy of all your classmates.
It's 8am. Starting the day with a quick swim without even leaving the campus is well worth it. And now it's time to continue the day with a nice cup of coffee and a couple of tasty slices of toast. Mmmmm!
Few things go down better in the morning than a nice cup of coffee. That's why you can find any number of cafés throughout the campus in its different buildings. There's one close by wherever you are. Likewise, there are also automatic vending machines selling coffee and snacks for a quick bite to eat before you go into class.
What class have I got now?
Now you're really awake and ready to go to class, and you've got to keep the pace up because the day's just begun. It's time to forge your future.
Over one hundred courses are available at the UIB, including bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees and the university's own postgraduate qualifications. Within this immense choice of research and educational opportunities, there is one course that is perfect for you. With teaching materials and classrooms adapted to the EHEA, studying or continuing your education at the UIB is a smart proposition.
An avalanche of information on the first day of the academic year? It's normal. Don't worry. You'll need a diary (among other things) to get organized. You don't want to miss any of the social events in between classes, do you?
Most buildings at the UIB have a stationer's shop where you can buy everything you need for your day-to-day studies: diaries, notebooks, biros, marker pens, plus photocopies for example. Stop off at our copying service or the campus library so that you have everything you want. That's where to go for those notes that your lecturers told you to get!
Of course! You are at university. You've got two more hours of classes, but the effort is worth it. In a while you can build up your strength with a Mallorcan-style snack. If you don't know what I mean, you've failed the test! Don't worry though, you'll soon learn.
Brains have to be well nourished to work properly. Remember that almost all the campus buildings have cafés where you can recharge your batteries. After a soft drink and a tasty 'pa amb oli' (traditional local cuisine and one of the quickest ways to go native), you'll have energy to carry on for a few more hours.
I've run out of cash!
You were going to pay for your food and you discover that you've run out of cash. Well, this time it's not a problem. Your new classmates will invite you to the 'pa amb oli', but next time it'll be your turn.
It'll be easy to return your friends' favour. You won't even need to leave the UIB to get some cash, because there are several banks on campus to take out money or for other banking transactions, such as getting a student card.
So now what shall I spend my money on?
You've got some money out of the cash dispenser and you now have a brand new UIB student card in your wallet. Now let's see what social event you can spend a few euros on this weekend, complete with a student discount.
The UIB has an information system for all its students where you can check out anything to do with your studies, get academic guidance, find out about complementary training courses and keep up to date with cultural events organized by the Cultural Activities Service, including conferences, congresses, art, exhibitions, music, cinema, theatre and dance. What do you fancy doing today?
You're on the last leg of the morning's classes. At least you've got a good incentive: tonight you're going to the cinema free! That's one of the big advantages of being a student at the UIB.
By now that 'pa amb oli' is a distant memory. Luckily you've got a couple of hours free to eat at your leisure. Have you chosen what you want for lunch today?
At the UIB, you can find a wide variety of reasonably priced cuisine. Every day the campus' different cafés prepare a set menu for the university community, so that when you come out of class you can choose from six different set menus. The problem is choosing which one, because you won't know which you like most. In addition to the cafés' usual selection of food (sandwiches, salads, hot dishes etc), you can also eat a pizza, tapa or kebab.
You've got your strength back and even though you haven't got classes this afternoon, you don't want to start the academic year on the wrong foot. You need to make an effort so that work doesn't pile up, even at the beginning. Okay, let's get on with it.
The UIB's students are our priority and so we try and make sure you have everything you need to guarantee the success of your studies. The campus has some twenty computer rooms in its different buildings to work in when you do your homework, prepare for practical training or read through your notes. All of them have Internet connections and they are connected to printers so that you can print out any document you need. Not having a printer is no excuse!
*Ask the caretaker in each building where the computer rooms are.
Do you need to consult a book?
No, my dear friend, not EVERYTHING is on the Internet. People think that Google has to come up with all the answers but unfortunately (or not) it doesn't have all of them. At least not all the answers that your lecturers want. That's why we have libraries.
Libraries still exist in the Internet age. Of course they do! And on the UIB's campus you can find one in almost every single building. Each of them contains general and more specialist reference tools including books, scientific (and digital) journals, encyclopaedias and audiovisual documents. In short, there's everything you need. There's even room to work in small groups and we can lend you laptops and e-books.
At the UIB, we want you to fit in as swiftly as possible. That's why we offer all mobility students courses in Catalan and Spanish, plus a volunteer language programme and a Catalan self-learning centre.
What a full day! You're exhausted. It's time to slow time and devote a few hours to yourself. Have you got everything you need in your room?
On the way to your room at the UIB hall of residence, you can stop off one last time. Opposite it, as well as the sports facilities, you can find the campus chemist's shop. This sells everything you need to ensure your health and wellbeing. Prevention is better than cure, they say, and we know a lot about all that too, because the campus also has a medical surgery.
It's a good idea to buy some vitamins at the chemist's but for them to work even better, we've got a suggestion. How about some yoga or Pilates classes? Something "easy" to start with.
At Campus Esport, as well as a swimming pool and fitness room, you should also go to our instructor-led classes. Our instructors will work you hard so that at the end of the year you can challenge your classmates to the Güell to Lluc walk (des Güell a Lluc a peu). (Ask what it's all about and see how quickly they accept the challenge). With the "Get Moving" programme, you can do spinning, keep fit, abdominal, step, water gym and belly dancing classes. You'll start off gently but end up going full out.
Has it been a hard day? Don't exaggerate! Luckily, you've only got to cross the street to reach your "new home". Have a refreshing shower, a good dinner and rest for a while. And don't be late for the cinema!
The UIB hall of residence is on campus, with all the advantages that this entails. You can go to class on foot or by bike, you can come and go as you please, you'll have a Wi-Fi connection, you can choose between a single or shared room and the kind of board you want (accommodation only, half board or full board), you'll be able to take advantage of university life at the campus and you'll have a free pass to the sports facilities at Campus Esport.

Ghislaine McDayter, "On the Publication of William Godwin's Memoirs of the Author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, 1798″
William Godwin's publication of Mary Wollstonecraft's memoirs in 1798 had a massive impact on Wollstonecraft's posthumous reputation and literary legacy. While Godwin's refusal to finesse an increasingly conservative readership by downplaying his wife's sexual independence in the Memoirs may have initiated a violent rejection of Wollstonecraft's work for nearly a century, it also highlighted the important political radicalism of her work that might otherwise have been forgotten.
Figure 1: William Blake's frontispiece to the 1791 edition of Mary Wollstonecraft's _Original Stories from Real Life_
When the feminist and radical intellectual Mary Wollstonecraft unexpectedly and tragically died due to complications in giving birth to the future Mary Shelley, her stricken widower, William Godwin, set about writing her memoirs to celebrate and eulogize his beloved, lost partner. A famous philosopher and novelist in his own right, Godwin self-confessedly lacked what he would refer to in the Memoirs of the Author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman as "an intuitive sense of the beauties of the imagination" (131).[1] This self-analysis was proven to be painfully astute once the scathing reviews for Godwin's ill-judged Memoirs of his dead wife exploded upon the London literary scene in January 1798. The memoir fearlessly and scrupulously documented Mary Wollstonecraft's hitherto little-known failed love affairs with the (already married) Swiss artist Henry Fuseli and the American businessman Gilbert Imlay. It recorded her two pregnancies out of wedlock, her two attempted suicides after Imlay's desertion of her, and her highly unorthodox attitudes to marriage and religion. The public response to these revelations was predictably one of moral outrage. Robert Southey proclaimed the Memoirs to be a scandalous work revealing Godwin's "want of feeling in stripping his dead wife naked,"[2] while the Anti-Jacobin Review quipped in its publication of a scurrilous poem, "The Vision of Liberty" in 1801, that the Memoirs was Godwin's attempt to have his wife's "brothel feats of wantonness set[] down" since "her whoredoms were not known enough."[3] The contemporary response to Memoirs indicated that Godwin's "education" in intuition by the empathetic Wollstonecraft had indeed been broken off long before he had successfully absorbed her "intuitive" life lessons:
The improvement I had reason to promise myself, was however yet in its commencement, when a fatal event, hostile to the moral interests of mankind, ravished from me the light of my steps, and left me nothing but the consciousness of what I had possessed, and must now possess no more. (133)
Godwin clearly had much to learn about the powers of intuition — and of the moral majority. Whatever its original intent, the Memoirs became notorious as what Cora Kaplan has quite rightly called the "book which undid [Wollstonecraft's] influence and reputation for almost a century" ("Wollstonecraft's Reception" 262). What is worse, the destruction of her reputation could not be blamed solely on the absurd suppositions of the reactionary critics who defamed her character when her sexual exploits were made known. Certainly, this had an enormous impact on her nineteenth-century reputation, but, arguably, by the twentieth century, such hegemonic sexual norms were hardly a deterrent to her growing reputation as a feminist theorist.[4] Ironically, it was Godwin's own defense of Wollstonecraft in his Memoirs as a woman who "worshipped domesticity" and who repressed "that mire and grossness, in which the sensual part of our species are delighted to wallow," that eroded what little feminist legitimacy Wollstonecraft might have acquired by the twentieth century (129). Godwin's Memoirs of the Author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman has repeatedly been cited as the single largest burden on Wollstonecraft's literary legacy; it has been deemed offensive by critics then and now, by contemporary moralists, and by modern feminists. How could such a brief outpouring of a husband's love for his dead wife have caused such formidable and wide-ranging damage?
The Memoirs is a perplexing text in many ways; it follows no clear genre, articulates no coherent motive for its existence, and seems to have no distinct target readership. There is very little in William Godwin's history to explain his interest in producing such a personal text, and certainly his contemporary readers found his work distasteful and inappropriate in the extreme — especially for a man of his intellectual repute.[5] Godwin was already well established in the intellectual and political firmament of London for his brilliant Enquiry Concerning Political Justice (1793) when Memoirs was released. The book's often-graphic personal detail (and the curiously stilted style in which it is explored) showed Godwin's literary and even personal bravery, following in the confessional autobiographical style of Rousseau's infamous and much-admired Confessions. Godwin had even toyed with writing biographies in his early literary career. Yet this intimate examination of his relationship with his recently deceased wife is outside both the confessional tradition and Godwin's own literary "comfort zone." The biographer Richard Holmes refers to it as a "revolution in literary genres" (16). Further, the little information that Godwin offers to justify writing the book raises more questions than it answers. He notes that it behooves the survivors of famous individuals to make public the character of those individuals lost to posterity:
It has always appeared to me, that to give the public some account of a person of eminent merit deceased, is a duty incumbent on survivors. It seldom happens that such a person passes through life, without being the subject of malignant calumny, or thoughtless misrepresentation. (5)
Godwin here suggests that the example of such luminaries will encourage and offer models of behavior to a younger generation: "The justice which is thus done to the illustrious dead, converts into the fairest source of animation and encouragement to those who would follow them" (5). The Memoirs is thus, if not an orthodox conduct manual, then at least an inspirational document for younger women intellectuals and writers. The life and work of Mary Wollstonecraft should be made public, Godwin claims, precisely for the public welfare. We all should emulate her life.
Notably, the book's severest critics focused precisely on its "conduct book" quality for their most vicious attacks. It was labeled a "convenient Manual of speculative debauchery" by the critic T. J. Mathias, while a reviewer in the European Magazine urges his readers in his 1798 review of the Memoirs to find more admirable models of femininity: "Licentious as the times are, we trust it will obtain no imitators of the heroine in this country."[6] A critic for the notoriously right-wing Anti-Jacobin Review and Magazine later claimed that:
We coincide with him [Godwin] in his opinion of the utility of a life of Mrs. Wollstonecroft [sic] though for a very different reason. Intended by him for a beacon, it serves for a buoy; it does not shew [sic] what it is wise to pursue, it manifests what it is wise to avoid.[7]
What made Godwin's biography so very reprehensible for these critics was that he presented it as a source of inspiration and emulation for a younger generation of "innocent" women. Rather than writing a traditional confessional text in which Wollstonecraft's unorthodox behavior is redeemed by a deathbed conversion, he has turned what should have been, according to the Anti-Jacobin Review, a condemnation of criminal behavior into a celebration of unblushing "concubinage".[8]
To further complicate this question, Godwin's assertion that Wollstonecraft needed to be defended from the malicious rumors that followed her to her grave rather overstates the case. Wollstonecraft's work had been generally well-received during her life and her personal reputation for the most part, untarnished — until Godwin's publication of Memoirs, that is. It is true that Wollstonecraft had come under attack by some conservatives and even some friends when she decided to marry Godwin, since this revealed the illicit nature of her previous relations with Imlay (the father of her daughter, Fanny). She had been known to many of her acquaintances as "Mrs. Imlay" until the marriage with Godwin. But, as many modern biographers have been quick to point out, the reviews and notices of Wollstonecraft's work, specifically The Vindication of the Rights of Woman, were almost uniformly positive. R. M. Janes conclusively shows in her examination of the reception of the Vindication that "with one important exception, every notice the Rights of Woman received was favorable" (294). The work's polemic force was largely ignored by both political parties, and as a result it was generally seen as "a sensible treatise on female education." As Janes points out:
The Analytical's response was typical. The work was catalogued for the year not under politics, but under "political economy," and the reviewer observed that "in the present work is an elaborate treatise of female education . . . if the bulk of the great truths which this publication contains were reduced to practice, the nation would be better, wiser, happier . . . ." (294)
The more revolutionary aspects of Wollstonecraft's theories of gender performance were uniformly ignored. It was only after Godwin's publication of the Memoirs that conservative critics went back to examine the Vindication and discovered in its pages not the fairly traditional educational manual they had hastily skimmed through the first time, but a highly radical text grounded in the philosophies of Thomas Paine. Janes continues:
With the appearance of the Memoirs, the Rights of Woman came to seem more revolutionary than it had at first. Providing a vulnerable combination of sexual and political error, Wollstonecraft became the symbolic center for attacks on radical female writers. (300)
Godwin himself had not commented at great length on the Vindication in his life of Wollstonecraft, but it is possible that his own brief references to its "amazonian" style raised eyebrows in the popular press, causing the reviewers to focus on aspects of the work that might well have gone unnoticed without Godwin's remarks.
Indeed, far from defending the Vindication as Wollstonecraft's great philosophical legacy, Godwin singles it out for criticism and his grounds for doing so are curious. While Maria and Mary, and even the immature fragment "Cave of Fancy" are praised for their imaginative force and sublimity, the Vindication is described regretfully by Godwin as an unfortunately "bold and original" production with unusual "strength and firmness." True, he notes that the work offers "substantial service for the cause of her sex," but in the process he nearly "unsexes" Wollstonecraft herself. There are to be found in its pages, Godwin laments, "occasional passages of a stern and rugged feature, incompatible with the writer's essential character . . . yet, along with this rigid and somewhat amazonian temper," there are nonetheless moments of "trembling delicacy," which, at times, redeem the work for the author (55).
If Godwin's motivation in writing his Memoirs had been to defend Wollstonecraft against the condemnations of the Anti-Jacobin Review and the ultra-conservative poet Richard Polwhele, who aligned Wollstonecraft's radical politics with a perverted gender performance in his poem The Unsex'd Females (1798), then arguably he was going about it in precisely the wrong way. As many feminist literary critics have observed, his own descriptive rhetoric seems to be in agreement with the conservative critiques of the Vindication, presenting it as a flawed and irrational text written by a masculinized hack. He worries that:
The Vindication of the Rights of Woman is undoubtedly a very unequal performance, and eminently deficient in method and arrangement. When tried by the hoary and long established laws of literary composition, it can scarcely be placed in the first class of human productions. (56)
Godwin has frequently and deservedly come under attack by recent critics for his patronizing commentary on Wollstonecraft's most politicized and certainly most famous work. Repeatedly, throughout the Memoirs, Godwin argues that the Vindication is not representative of the "real" Wollstonecraft, precisely because reading this work alone would compel us to agree that she is indeed a "stern and rugged" woman. It is for this reason that he urges his readers to avoid judging Wollstonecraft the woman based on this single text in her literary body of work, since the Vindication appeared even to the man who loved her as an irregularity or blemish on the face of an otherwise strongly feminine corpus. Thus, he set out in the composition of his two 1798 editions of the Memoirs, as the modern literary critic Tillotima Rajan argues, to create "a contiguity between corpus and corpse."[9] In a further patronizing irony, Godwin even privileges his Memoirs over Wollstonecraft's own "corpus" of work for its authenticity as a faithful embodiment of the "true" Wollstonecraft. Studying the Vindication will teach us nothing about who Wollstonecraft really was, Godwin suggests, and at the heart of the Memoirs is the implied message that his own re-membered corpus of his wife is far more faithful to the original Mary than Wollstonecraft's Vindication could ever be.
It is here that we begin to uncover some of the tensions and fissures that have made Memoirs such a contentious work for literary critics right up until the present day. Godwin spends the better part of his analysis of his dead wife and her work emphasizing, if not insisting, upon her femininity, her sensitivity, and her delicacy. Through some determined gender policing, he works very hard to convince his readers, and possibly even himself, that the dearly departed really was a "womanly" woman despite her brief and regrettable foray into the realm of masculine logic — a field of study that, in Godwin's view, she failed to master. For Godwin, however, what this failure revealed was a consummately feminine nature, "eminently deficient in method and arrangement" (56). That is, it is the Vindication's very flaws that redeem the author. Thus, Godwin is quick to assert that those who had met Wollstonecraft having only read her atypical "amazonian" work were always shocked to find in her a womanly and delicate mother:
In the champion of her sex, who was described as endeavouring to invest them with all the rights of man, those whom curiosity prompted to seek the occasion of beholding her, expected to find a sturdy, muscular raw boned virago; and they were not a little surprised, when instead of all this, they found a woman, lovely in her person, and in the best and most engaging sense, feminine in her manners. (56)
Perhaps it would be churlish to point out that he himself did not prove to be one of those curious visitors "a little surprised" to find a woman instead of a virago when encountering Wollstonecraft for the first time. On the contrary, Godwin had initially been as underwhelmed by the flesh-and-blood Wollstonecraft as he had been by the manly persona he had encountered in her Vindication. She had been, in his mind, unnaturally aggressive and forceful in his first meeting with her at a dinner with Thomas Paine in 1791, and it wasn't until he had read her Letters Written During a Short Residence in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark that he acquired any interest in her as a woman. Even then, this interest was only triggered by the "softness" of her melancholic letters that erased the past unpleasant impression that had been made on him — an impression of the author's "harshness and ruggedness" — during his previous reading of her Vindication (84). Letters, on the contrary, is a book "calculated to make a man in love with its author," asserts Godwin, emphasizing as it does Wollstonecraft's maternal nature, her "softness" and overwhelming "gentleness" (84). In its pages, we at last find Godwin's idea of the "real" Wollstonecraft – a kind of "female Werter," as he un-ironically puts it (73).
Critics such as Claire Tomalin have forcefully argued that such privileging of the traditionally feminine side of Wollstonecraft's character reveals Godwin's retrograde, if not actually sexist, attempt to whitewash his wife's character so as to align it more easily with the feminine ideology of the day.[10] Thus, his second "corrected" edition is often pointed to as an obvious attempt on his part to "soften" the more masculine lines drawn in his first portrait of Wollstonecraft. Of course, it is tempting to suggest that Godwin is so anxious to redeem Wollstonecraft from her presumed reputation as a phallic woman if only to protect his own reputation. If Wollstonecraft was so masculine and Amazonian by nature, it rather begged the question of what this might say about Godwin's own sexuality. It is surely significant in this context that the final passages he rewrote in his second edition of Memoirs comprise a highly conventional articulation of a complementarian, which is to say a "different but equal" relationship so popular at this time:
A circumstance by which the two sexes are particularly distinguished from each other, is, that the one is accustomed more to the exercise of its reasoning powers, and the other of its feelings . . . . Mary and myself perhaps each carried farther than to its common extent the characteristics of the sexes to which we belonged. I have been stimulated, as long as I can remember, by the love of intellectual distinction; but as long as I can remember, I have been discouraged, when casting the sum of my intellectual value, by finding that I did not possess, in the degree of some other persons, an intuitive sense of the pleasures of the imagination. (130)
Based on such passages, Godwin seems eager to present his marriage to Wollstonecraft as a match made in a Rousseauian heaven, with Godwin/Emile playing opposite the redoubtable Wollstonecraft/Sophie as if torn from a page of Rousseau's influential educational treatise, Emile: or On Education (1762) — a novel that Wollstonecraft attacks throughout her Vindication.
Quite apart from the fact that such a characterization of their relationship would have horrified Wollstonecraft, it also did untold damage to Wollstonecraft's status in the modern field of gender studies. How are we, as twentieth-century feminists, to interpret the work and politics of a writer who should be considered a "mother of feminism," but who is presented to posterity by her husband in the character of hegemonic femininity? What kind of mother are we speaking of, and how could we learn from her? Was she, following Godwin, the ideologically normative woman who was incapable of logical analysis but embodied the much-lauded feminine qualities of imagination, emotive force, and maternal softness? Or was she, as critics like Kaplan have influentially argued in the past, a figure who denied her womanhood and repressed all of her own sexual impulses while denigrating female desire as a kind of sexual contagion which all woman should ideally learn to cure?[11] What, in short, was Godwin thinking in privileging his own portrait of Wollstonecraft over and above that drawn by Wollstonecraft herself?
But while lamentable in many respects, it is possible that Godwin's lack of cultural savvy, and considerable literary self-importance, may have served Wollstonecraft well in the long run. Wollstonecraft's name and work might have — if not exactly sunk into obscurity — then at least been less hotly debated had Godwin not championed her and her memory, no matter how ineptly. His attempts to dismiss the Vindication as a text not representative of his wife's true nature, ironically, redirected contemporary critics to the powerful political underpinnings of the work that had been largely ignored during Wollstonecraft's own lifetime. Again, it was only after the Memoirs that Wollstonecraft's name became synonymous with radicalism and with dangerous female passion. Thus, while feminist criticism may continue to wrestle with the legacy left us by this "mother of feminism," and while we may never fully accept the "truth" of her character constructed by her husband's Memoirs, the fact that her literary corpus remains in the spotlight of critical analysis at all is curiously thanks to Godwin's ill-judged, public re-membering of his lost lover.

3-Night Walt Disney World Package for a Family of 3 as low as $1,205!
"Epic Mickey" development studio closed by Disney
Leah Zanolla | Posted: Feb 7, 2013 | Updated: Oct 19, 2014 - 9:25:27 AM
Disney Interactive Studios is closing Junction Point Studios, the developer of the Disney Epic Mickey and Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two video games. Junction Point Studios was headed by role-playing game and video game designer Warren Spector, and acquired by Disney in 2007. When asked for the reason for the closure, the company stated that it was part of its "effort to address the fast-evolving gaming platforms and marketplace" and they wanted "to align [their] resources with [their] key priorities."
Spector commented on the closure on Facebook, saying, "I said to myself as Junction Point embarked on the 'Epic Mickey' journey that, worst case, we'd be 'a footnote in Disney history.' Looking back on it, I think we did far better than that. With Mickey Mouse as our hero, we introduced a mainstream audience to some cool 'core game' concepts - and, most especially, we restored Oswald the Lucky Rabbit to a place of prominence."
The Epic Mickey series was designed for the Wii and showed a different side of Disney, reintroducing the Oswald the Lucky Rabbit character, and showing the more mischievous aspect of Mickey Mouse's character. Epic Mickey was released in 2010; Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two was released in 2012.

Q: Gulp watch is stuck for 30 mins now This is a question that connects with my previous question which is
Setting up vue and laravel trouble
Gulp is done migrating files to my public directory but when i do
gulp watch
it is stuck. Asking for your help on this.

A: Based off your comments on your other question and the image you provided https://gyazo.com/e34c721c7e189fb4277ca9d5714a9d43 it looks like it's just watching (not stuck just waiting for changes). When you save files it should compile.
Again pulling from your other question if you save your file named 'vendor.css' it should show
Starting 'vendor.css'...
Finished 'vendor.css'...

Having served as a Legislative Fellow on Capitol Hill and as an attorney in both South Carolina and D.C., he has appreciation for the conflict of federal and state laws that patients struggle with every day. Focusing on statutory interpretation and Congressional advocacy, David believes the best way to help patients in need of treatment is engage lawmakers and encourage robust regulatory change.

Many courts and state and local governments have turned to "fair share" plans to determine the equitable distribution of housing in a region according to such criteria as broadening the socioeconomic mix of communities and protecting the environment. This monograph examines the emerging fair share strategy, discusses its theoretical impact, and analyzes its track record to date. Specific examples and legislative alternatives are examined in detail.

Russa's "Biological" Information Operation Against the US and Georgia
By Nurlan Aliyev
November 27, 2018, the CACI Analyst
During a press conference in Moscow on October 4, 2018, Major General Igor Kirillov, commander of Russia's radiological, chemical and biological defense troops, stated that 73 citizens of Georgia had died as a result of medical experiments conducted by a company owned by former U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. He referred to recent accusations from Georgia's former Minister of State Security Igor Giorgadze, who served in the KGB from the 1970s to the 1990s and holds the title "Honorary Officer of the KGB of the USSR." Kirillov's statement coincided with allegations from the UK and the Netherlands that Russian spies attempted to hack the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in The Hague.
Discontent with Kadyrov Leads to Increased Violence in Chechnya
By Emil A. Souleimanov and Huseyn Aliyev
October 23, 2018, the CACI Analyst
On August 20, a series of attacks by teenagers against policemen took place in Chechnya's cities of Grozny and Shali. The country's strongman Ramzan Kadyrov quickly blamed "external actors" seeking to pitch local security enforcement, siloviki, against teenagers, while decrying the inability of the attackers' parents to oversee their sons. Yet realities on the ground appears to be different. In fact, large part of the Chechen population hold enormous grievances caused by the impunity of local siloviki, particularly kadyrovtsy, and the republican authorities in general. The threat of punishment against the relatives of insurgents and their (prospective) supporters has since the early 2000s stemmed the local insurgency. Yet from time to time, grievances condensed in the Chechen population explode in spontaneous acts of nearly-suicidal violence against republican law enforcement.
What Would Membership in the CSTO Mean for Azerbaijan and the South Caucasus?
By Fuad Shahbazov
On August 16, the Azerbaijani MP and head of the Azerbaijan-Russia interparliamentary group Ali Huseynli told local media that "It would be advisable to consider Azerbaijan's participation in the Collective Security Treaty Organization" (CSTO). The sensational statement triggered a public discussion on Azerbaijan's possible membership in the Russia-led CSTO and its consequences for the region. While some state officials described this prospect as a logical extension of Baku's cooperation with Moscow, others strictly opposed the idea, stating that it would pose dangerous challenges to the country.
The Perspective of Trans-Caspian Gas Flow to Europe
By Ilgar Gurbanov
On August 12, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Russia, Iran, and Turkmenistan signed the Convention on the Caspian Sea's Legal Status in Astana. The Convention's provision endorsing the construction of a subsea pipeline raised optimism regarding the Trans-Caspian Gas Pipeline (TCGP) project, which has been stalled due to the Caspian's uncertain status. Discussions on the TCGP have been ongoing since the 1990s, envisaging the export of 30 billion cubic meters/year (bcm/y) of Turkmen gas to Europe across the Caspian by integrating with the Southern Gas Corridor (SGC).
Political Crisis is Looming in Ingushetia
By Huseyn Aliyev
October 2, 2018, the CACI Analyst
On May 27, Ingushetia's Muftiate (The Muslim Spiritual Center of Ingushetia) excommunicated Yunus-bek Yevkurov, head of the autonomous republic in Russia's North Caucasus. According to the head of the Muftiate, Isa Khamkhoev, the excommunication implies that Yevkurov is no longer a Muslim and is not allowed to participate in wedding and funeral ceremonies or other Muslim events in the republic. The Muftiate motivated its decision with Yevkurov's persecution of the religious community, the illegal use of administrative resources to lobby against the Muftiate, and the use of security forces to seize land allocated for a mosque in the capital city Magas. Notwithstanding the excommunication, Yevkurov was reelected as the head of republic in the September 9 local elections.


a baby monitor, crib, and diapers. What savvy parents now are adding to that list is the support of a Newborn Care Specialist and Sleep Consultant.
A Newborn Care Specialist is a secret weapon for new parents; specializing in infant care, sleep, and growth. Planning for care and support for you and your baby beforehand can save time and lessen stress. A newborn care specialist that is also trained as a professional sleep consultant can mean getting your newborn on a healthy sleep and play pattern right from the start.
Most households are full of parents who are both working. This means they need extra support during the first 3-6 months after they bring home their new baby.
There are many ways a Newborn Care Specialist or Sleep Consultant can help you have a smooth and easy transition into parenthood.
A Sleep Consultant works with you to create a peaceful sleep plan for your baby. They work with many clients right from the moment their baby is born; teaching both parent and baby what a good night sleep looks and feels like. At The Doula House, our sleep training is more like rhythm training; we get your baby to learn to sleep well without tears and painful cry-it-out sessions.
Many professional parents are faced with a return to work only weeks after their baby is born, and the sleepless nights with a crying baby can fill the "fourth trimester" with anxiety and stress rather than peaceful bonding.
Many of these parents hire their sleep support team before their baby is born and this allows them to have instant access to their personalized team of baby whisperers as soon as their baby is born. Parents are even pampering themselves with 24 hour support, starting in the hospital and lasting up to 1 month after their baby is born. This allows for on-call and in-home support for all things baby and postpartum; this means more success and less worry.
There are many names given to these professionals: night nanny, baby nurse, postpartum doula, and nanny. The difference between these titles and a Newborn Care Specialist is that the Newborn Care Specialist is trained specifically to care not only for the new mother and parent, but also to care for your newborn. A NCS is trained to help your baby thrive and hit their milestones. They are trained in baby proofing, healthy day schedules, and best feeding practices; including introducing solids. At The Doula House we specifically work to make sure that your newborn is surrounded in the best environment possible and we specialize in working with multiples and making sure parents and babies are thriving and happy.
*Having trouble establishing breastfeeding? No worries, your personal lactation consultant is right there to help you every step of the way; including at that 1:00 am feeding.
*Your newborn is awake from 1:00 am to 4:30am? We have you covered. Your baby is in the caring and gentles hands of your specialist, helping them to adjust to life outside of the womb free from stress.
*You have a short maternity or paternity leave and need in-home help to care for your newborn at a level that is more advanced than a nanny or sitter? We have you covered. A Newborn Care Specialist is there day or night, working with your baby to set healthy routines and rhythms. This will ensure that your baby is growing, hitting their milestones, and have a happy day to day experience.
When parents don't book ahead, they are often stressed and overworked and they call us looking for immediate help because they have not had a good night sleep, or a happy baby in weeks or even months. It is never too late to work with your baby.
Many of the best Sleep Consultants and Newborn Care Specialist fill up fast, so hiring them early on will help to guarantee you have the best support team ready for you as soon as your baby is born.


Isn't that like herding frogs into a wheel barrel?
will always be more work than I can possibly handle alone.
is not what I have trained to be all these years.
and see why. If it is broke, take it apartand see why."

Sajid not a mentor: Jacqueline
She is only three films old in Bollywood. But actress Jacqueline Fernandez is flooded with offers from big production houses and her career moves are rumoured to be taken by actor-filmmaker Sajid Khan.
However, the model-turned-young actress denies it all, saying she takes her own decisions and no one is playing mentor to her.
When Jacqueline started shooting for her yet-be-released film, 'Housefull 2', helmed by Sajid, sparks flew and soon there were reports that they are dating and would get married this year. Most industry folks feel that Sajid keeps a watch on the films she signs.
"No.. he (Sajid) is not my mentor, I don't actually have one. I don't have any mentor. I am very professional person, I have never had any mentor. And no he never does tell me what films to do and what not. I think for me it is important that I make my own decisions," Jacqueline told PTI in an interview.
"As I am not from the industry..I am an outsider, so it is easy for me to make mistakes as I don't know how things work in the industry, how people function. It is important to make your own mistakes and learn from them and not based on someone else advice to know what you are doing is right," she said.
The 26-year-old made her debut in tinsel town with 'Aladin' (2010) opposite Riteish Deshmukh. In her next film 'Jaane Kahaan Se Aayi Hai' she was again paired opposite Riteish but both these films did no magic at the box office.
This was followed by a cameo in 'Housefull' and a full-fledgedrole in 'Murder 2'. More than her professional life, she was talked more about for her rumoured relation with Sajid which she thinks is unfair.
"I feel your personal life should not be shared with the whole world. I am uncomfortable sharing it with everyone. For an actor everything becomes publicised from what you wear to what your diet is. The controversies that happened last year were larger than life for me... it was very shocking, how fast and big things were happening. It was unfair, things were going out of control, stuff like marriage is happening, this is uncalled for," Jacqueline said.
"I did not know why I was picked on. Every time I used to comment it leads to another story so I did not comment anything. But it was hurting me. I was pretty much alone, no one advised me on this. But then you feel it keeps happening to everyone in the industry, you are not alone, it happens to biggest of stars and they also have to go through it," she said.
"It is important for you to hold your ground, be dignified and let your work speak for yourself," the ex-Miss Sri Lanka concluded. PTI


The mission of the Oregon Tourism Commission (OTC), doing business as Travel Oregon, is to encourage economic growth and enhance the quality of life in Oregon through a strengthened economic impact of tourism throughout the state. Projects that contribute to the development and improvement of local economies throughout Oregon by means of the enhancement, expansion and promotion of the visitor industry are eligible to receive funding from the Matching Grant Program.
OTC has allocated $10,000 for investment in the Oregon Rural Tourism Studio Matching Grant Program for each graduating community. Each community may submit up to two project ideas. Projects must be completed within one year of the grant award.
Below is a brief look at some of the components of the matching grant program. The grant guidelines specific to this program will be provided to the participants in their final workshop session.
After successful completion of the Oregon Rural Tourism Studio, a participating member of the local Rural Tourism Studio Steering Committee may submit one matching grant application.
The matching grant application may include up to two project ideas for a maximum total request of $10,000.
A local nonprofit organization or public agency must serve as fiscal agent for the grant.
The initial step of the application process is to complete a Grant Project Idea Worksheet and submit it to Travel Oregon. Once the Idea Worksheet has been reviewed, applicants must provide additional details, including a project budget, timeline and letters of support.
A one-to-one match will be required for an applicant to receive matching grant funds. In-kind contributions can be used for up to half of the match provided. For example, if you are applying for a $10,000 matching grant, you can provide a match of $5,000 in cash and $5,000 worth of in-kind contributions.
Matching grant projects must be aligned with and support the local priorities identified in the Rural Tourism Studio program.
Matching grant applications are due six months after the completion of the Rural Tourism Studio.
Projects must be completed within one year of the grant award.

Presenc-ing Sculpture, was the focus for these 9' x 12' (274cm x 365cm) crystalline floor pieces. Part of the Crystalline Floor Piece Series with performance, the purpose of these rugs was an abstraction of primitive textile, creating an optical illusion of movement to elevate their sculptural quality, actuating them to support a complex performance.

5 Love Languages, Brave Communication, Culture of Honor, Self-love/Love Tank, Boundaries. These are all powerful tools that were meant to help us love others and ourselves well. But are we using them the right way? Instead of forming love in us, we can actually use these tools in a way that prevents God's grace to transform us.
Not too long ago, I realized that I continually created boxes to fit into based on who was in front of me. This was something that I did subconsciously, so it wasn't something I was really aware of until I had a few encounters with people that made it blatantly obvious.
If you buy into a self-serving gospel, you will sell out when it no longer serves you.

Q: How long is 1 yard in World of Warcraft? In WoW, there are plenty of abilities such as blood boil that have area of effect. This area is usually measured and denoted by yards. A yard is easy to estimate in real life, but how is it estimated in the game? If a spell has a radius of 10 yards, how far does it really stretch in respect to my character?

A: In general the easiest way of finding a giving range is to see what spells you can cast on your target and moving back and forth to see them be available or not, just remember that the target needs to be targetable by the spell you look at (hostile target for damage/debuff and friendly for heal/buff), I don't remember if the default skillbar supports this but some skillbars will grey out abilities when you are out of range of your target to make it easier to spot.
Another easy way of determining range for some ranges is using abilities where you have to place a casting circle. A Death Knight can use Death and Decay to spot a 10/20 yard range(10 yard from center to outer circle or 20 yard from one side to the other), for your example you can start the DnD move the courser over your char and the placement circle now shows you a 10yard range that you know your Blood Boil will hit.
The last thing I know you can do is get an add on like Range Display that will try and guess the range to your target.

Number of Days: 6
Tour Type: Guided by Key Tours (found on Groupon)
Days 1–2: After touching down in Istanbul, an escort will accompany you to your hotel. That afternoon, you're free to take in the city's sights and sounds at your leisure. The following morning, you'll embark on a sightseeing tour of Istanbul. Visit two of the world's most exquisite places of worship: the Hagia Sophia, which has served as both a mosque and an Orthodox cathedral since its construction in the 6th century, and the Blue Mosque, known for six narrow minarets that flank its exterior and the 20,000 blue tiles that decorate its domes. You'll also visit the Topkapi Palace. Built in the late 15th century, this grand labyrinthine structure was home to several sultans during the Ottoman Empire. Also on the docket is the Hippodrome of Constantinople, a former site of chariot races that now features Grecian, Egyptian, and German monuments. The day ends with a trip to the colorful Grand Bazaar.
Day 3: You can book an optional day tour and cruise the Bosporus, a sea strait that divides Istanbul and, consequently, the continents of Asia and Europe. You'll sail past the Golden Horn, a peninsula that historically sheltered Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman ships for thousands of years.
Day 4: Today is yours for exploring. Recommended excursions include a trip to the top of Galata Tower, which has loomed above Istanbul's skyline since 1348. Up top, you can admire unrivaled panoramic views of the city. Other possible outings include a visit to the renowned Spice Bazaar and the historic Old City.
Day 5: You can join an optional private tour of a trio of local museums known collectively as the Istanbul Archaeological Museums. The main Archaeological Museum houses the sarcophagus of Alexander the Great, whereas the Museum of the Ancient Orient contains an impressive collection of artifacts from the dawn of human civilization, including two Neo-Hittite basalt lions. The Museum of Islamic Art is best known for its Turkish carpets, calligraphy, and religious art.
Day 6: You'll travel back to the airport on your own and board your flight home.

Is there age bias in your workplace? These simple exercises will tell you
Lila MacLellan
There's no denying it. What the author Carl Honoré calls the "grim downbeat narrative" about aging that permeates most cultures is also alive in the workplace. We're prone to believe, erroneously, that only the young are creative and agile in the their thinking, while the old (or merely older) risk being labeled "dead wood."
The stereotypes translate into age discrimination in hiring and layoff practices, which in the US have become a more frequent topic of lawsuits—and emotional angst. And the same story is playing out in other countries where, as in the US, the workforce is aging.
But companies are finally recognizing that this has to change, and that rampant ageism, like sexism and racism, will not be quashed without some structural interventions. The software analytics company SAP, for example, employs a "global lead of cross-generational intelligence." The position is held by Annice Joseph, who is based in Bangalore. Meeting counterparts at other companies is still rare, she says, but she believes the role is becoming somewhat more common in diversity departments, especially at globe-spanning multinationals.
Part of Joseph's mandate is to develop policies that support all five generations within SAP's workforce of nearly 100,000. For example, the company encourages two-way mentoring, and allows workers at any stage of life to choose the flex hours that fit their needs.
The other part of her job involves running awareness workshops about ageism with employees and managers. In a recent conversation with Quartz at Work, she shared a few of the exercises that she says have resonated most with SAP employees.
Who are your friends?
In one exercise, Joseph and her team ask employees to raise their hand if they have friends from all five generations, then from four generations, then only three, etc. Only one guideline is enforced: "Unless you're truly a buddy with an older relative, don't call them a friend," says Joseph. Most people can't honestly claim to have pals across the entire range, she says.
"What people recognize from even that simple exercise is that very often we like to hang out with people from our own age groups, or a few friends who are little older," says Joseph. "But in the workplace, it's important to collaborate across all generations."
Sometimes she'll also ask, "Who did you have lunch with today? Who did you meet for coffee?" Employees usually come to see that they generally don't reach out consciously to connect with people who are not part of their generation, and typically only share meals with much older or much younger peers when "lunch" is actually a team meeting.
What does your generation care about?
Perhaps the most robust, universal myths about generations are connected to questions of identity. You know, Gen-Xers are said to be cynical and self-protective, while millennials are ready to change the world, et cetera.
Joseph chips away at these ideas with an exercise that asks employees to form groups by generation and brainstorm a list of the values, fears, and motivations that drive them. The various groups are asked not to speak to each other as they brainstorm. When everyone comes back together and compares responses on a whiteboard, they inevitably discover that at least five or six commonalities exist across every cohort, says Joseph.
To be fair, it's possible that everyone is choosing the answers that are expected of "good employees"—or that we've come to believe certain generational stereotypes because the media has put too much emphasis on random, contradictory surveys.
SAP employees also discuss major world events—like the first moon landing, the arrival of the internet, 9/11, or the milestone election of a young prime minister—and trends in fashion, music, and other forms of culture that have shaped their generation's attitudes, expectations, and belief systems. Naturally, they learn again how unpredictable forces have driven change in similar ways in more than one era.
"Fashion, in particular, is very interesting because people make judgments based on how others dress," says Joseph. And yet, "the moment you bring this up with people across different generations, you realize that fashion has cycles. People across different groups are able to identify commonalities and in turn, establish an appreciation and understanding for each other."
How do you like to communicate?
Communication etiquette may be one way of being with each other that indeed is informed by generational norms and trends in technology. A phone call that seems perfectly appropriate to a baby boomer comes off as downright rude and presumptuous to a younger colleague who grew up with texting and email. As it happens, Quartz at Work discovered several differences in communication styles when members of our mixed-generation team wrote "user manuals" as a group experiment two years ago.

Light scattering from nonequilibrium concentration fluctuations in a polymer solution
Li, W. B. and Zhang, K. J. and Sengers, Jan V. and Gammon, R. W. and Ortiz de Zárate Leira, José María (2000) Light scattering from nonequilibrium concentration fluctuations in a polymer solution. Journal of Chemical Physics, 112 (20). pp. 9139-9150. ISSN 0021-9606
Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.481524
We have performed light-scattering measurements in dilute and semidilute polymer solutions of polystyrene in toluene when subjected to stationary temperature gradients. Five solutions with concentrations below and one solution with a concentration above the overlap concentration were investigated. The experiments confirm the presence of long-range nonequilibrium concentration fluctuations which are proportional to (del T)(2)/k(4), where del T is the applied temperature gradient and k is the wave number of the fluctuations. In addition, we demonstrate that the strength of the nonequilibrium concentration fluctuations, observed in the dilute and semidilute solution regime, agrees with theoretical values calculated from fluctuating hydrodynamics. Further theoretical and experimental work will be needed to understand nonequilibrium fluctuations in polymer solutions at higher concentrations.

NO-NAIL BOXES - 100% recyclable packaging in plywood and steel!
As producers of responsible packaging, sustainable development in general and particularly recycling are key concerns for NO-NAIL BOXES. Not only has the company implemented a programme on waste prevention, management and reduction internally, but the collapsible boxes it produces are also easily recyclable.
All collapsible boxes produced by NO-NAIL BOXES are 100% plywood and steel. These two materials make recycling them particularly easy when customers no longer can or want to use them.
To ensure correct recycling of the boxes, NO-NAIL BOXES advises its customers to contact their usual local waste management facility to arrange for collection of the boxes to be recycled.
The boxes will be taken to a recycling/upgrading plant where they will be crushed before their plywood and steel components are automatically separated. The steel particles can be easily recovered by magnetisation.
The wood will, for example, be used for electricity and heat generation while the steel will be given a second life.
One shuttle crate can replace 50 packages!
NO-NAIL BOXES provides purpose-made boxes for the shuttles. The plywood boxes are eight times stronger than cardboard packaging and can be reused many times. One shuttle crate can replace 50 non-returnable packages! This is, therefore, an economical and ecological advantage. It is a responsible packaging solution, ideal for logistical loops and optimising empty returns.
The collapsible boxes by NO-NAIL BOXES comply with European legislation. 100% recyclable and reusable, they are fully in line with Directive 94/62/EC on packaging and packaging waste. This law provides for measures aimed at reducing the production of packaging waste, promoting recycling, reuse and other ways of upgrading this waste. Final disposal of these items should only be considered as a last resort.

David Broockman is an American political scientist. He is an associate professor of Political Science at the University of California, Berkeley. He is best known for his research on political persuasion and reducing prejudice toward transgender people and undocumented immigrants, which has been widely covered in the national and international press.

Early life and education
He was raised in Texas. Broockman attended Yale University, where he was a member of the Skull and Bones Society. He has a PhD in Political Science from University of California, Berkeley.

Career
Broockman's career in academia began in 2015, when he became an assistant professor at the Graduate School of Business at Stanford University. He was promoted to associate professor at Stanford in 2019 when he also became a National Fellow at the Hoover Institution. In 2020, he moved to become an associate professor of Political Science at the University of California, Berkeley.

Research

When Contact Changes Minds
In 2015, while still a graduate student, Broockman along with Joshua Kalla and Peter Aronow, "expos[ed] one of the biggest scientific frauds in recent memory." They showed that a prominent study entitled "When Contact Changes Minds: An Experiment on Transmission of Support for Gay Equality" published in Science Magazine was fraudulent. The scientific paper was retracted after the senior author, Donald Green, requested that it be so. For exposing the fraud, Broockman and Kalla won the 2015 Leamer-Rosenthal Prize for Transparency in the Social Sciences.

The fraudulent paper purported to show that a single canvassing conversation can increase support for same-sex marriage in a durable way. The finding of fraud raised many doubts about the role of canvassing in political persuasion. Although the scientific article was found to be fraudulent, Broockman and Kalla conjectured that the underlying claim that high-quality door-to-door canvassing conversations could decrease prejudice might be true.  In a subsequent article published in Science Magazine, Broockman and Kalla demonstrated that door-to-door canvassing successfully reduces transgender prejudice, with the effects persisting months later in follow-up surveys.

Other Research
Broockman and Kalla have also published on the minimal effects of most persuasive interventions.

Broockman's other research has also received significant public attention. For example, in a 2013 study, Broockman argues that legislators consistently believe their constituents are more conservative than they actually are. Some conjectured that this study explained why it is so challenging to pass liberal laws.

Broockman has also critiqued prevailing understandings of political polarization. In a 2015 study, he argued that many voters do not have moderate views, and are happy to see polarized politicians representing them. He has also argued that affective polarization does not meaningfully undermine political accountability.

In a 2017 article with Neil Malhotra, he argues that there is significant heterogeneity in the preferences of wealthy individuals. The article shows that technology entrepreneurs support liberal redistributive, social, and globalist policies but conservative regulatory policies which is a combination of preferences that is rare among wealthy political donors more generally.
