Transfer function is a mathematical representation of relationship between input and output (signal) of a linear, time-invariant system.
How do I find the transfer function in the frequency domain?
What is the meaning of the transfer function of a filter? Please explain intuitively with an example if possible.
Suppose i have the system equation $Y(s) = G(s)X(s)+ 3T(s)$ Then what is the transfer function of the system? I know that the transfer function is $Y(s)/X(s)$, but i can't get that expression.
transfer function and 'causal' signal - evaluate transfer function or use z-transform of input?
Sound equalization : assumptions around the use of the transfer functions. Are they correct?
How do I plot the square of the amplitude response?

Didi Conn became famous for her role as Frenchy in Grease, then used her fame to advocate for autistic children and their families. Born Edith Bernstein, Conn married Frank Conn in 1975 and combined her childhood nickname with her married name to create her stage name. Her first roles included a brief appearance on Happy Days in 1975, an ongoing part on The Practice in 1976, and the lead role in the 1977 film You Light Up My Life, but she is best known for playing Frenchy in the 1978 classic Grease and its 1982 sequel. From 1981–1985 she was a regular on the Soap spinoff Benson, and from 1989–1995 she co-starred on the children's show Shining Time Station opposite George Carlin and Ringo Starr. She has continued to appear in guest roles on television shows as varied as The Wild Thornberrys, Law & Order SVU, and Transparent. In 2008, Conn, the mother of an autistic son, became a celebrity spokesperson for Autism Speaks, and in 2012 she launched a pilot for an animated children's show with an autistic character, Didi Delightful.

Gun found at Southall Gasworks construction site
PC Justin Petty tweeted a picture of what appeared to be a silver gun that was dug up at Southall Gasworks
A gun found at Southall Gasworks
Construction workers at a site in Ealing have unearthed a gun while redeveloping a gasworks site.
On Monday (February 15) PC Justin Petty from Met police posted a picture on social media site Twitter of the silver gun.
He added that the gun was found on Friday (February 12) at the ground clearance of the Southall Gasworks site in Southall , Ealing.
The site, next to Southall train station and in between The Straight and Beaconsfield Road, is being redeveloped by developers St James.
Planning permission was granted in 2010 to turn the site into residential-led mixed use development.
It is unknown how long the gun has been there and police could not say whether or not the gun was loaded, or whether it was real or fake.
No one has been arrested.

I've had a dataset kicking around for a while on Reddit's resistance to SOPA: 766 Reddit posts and associated comments, obtained through Reddit's API, covering from late 2011 until the day the of the blackouts, 18 January 2012. I've tried a couple of ways to analyse it, mostly thinking from a social movement perspective about how a coherent and ultimately successful resistance emerged.
I've got a short paper in ICTD 2013. The title is "Mobiles and Migration: Global Data on Immigrant Population and Mobile Subscriptions" and the abstract is below. You can also download the data, R code, draft paper and the bubble chart I used on my poster.

TESSA holds free skate event for a good cause
by: Maggy Wolanske
(COLORADO SPRINGS) — TESSA hosted a free community skate event on Monday evening from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. to raise awareness about human trafficking. Admission was free at Skate City Austin Bluffs and Skate City Academy with the only cost being skate rentals.
"And so, let's get the families together and bring the awareness out, not just the fact of, you know, all the negativity that can go along with human trafficking," said President of Skate City, Jeff Ingrum. "Let's try and do something positive where we can get some exposure and some awareness."
TESSA advocates were at the event to educate the community and promote awareness.
"TESSA will have a table here tonight, will be here from 6 to 9 and we are really just going to be spreading information," said TESSA Human Trafficking Program Manager, Bailey Thiry. "Giving out TESSA's information, some pamphlets, some informational brochures about TESSA as a whole. As well as, human trafficking, signs just to look for [in] survivors, risks as well as safety tips and that does sound scary for a lot of people because it is such an intense issue. But we really want to make it family friendly because this is such a family-friendly place."

TESSA's website shares that its mission is "to help individuals and their children find safety and well-being in challenging communities to end sexual and family violence."
"TESSA works with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking and stalking," Thiry said. "We've been around… going into our 46th year, and the human trafficking program is newer, it's only been around for a couple of years."
This is one of the several events TESSA has done in January which is National Human Trafficking Prevention Month.
"We've done a lot of different events as… TESSA as a whole, but now just kind of really saying this is what our program does specifically," Thiry said. "This is the month where we really were wanting to spread all this awareness as much as possible."
Donations were encouraged at the event and Skate City shared they will match up to $2,500 in public donations for TESSA.
"TESSA is going to handle that as far as the money side of it and the collections and so forth," Ingrum said. "We'll have some staff in here to assist them with that. But whatever it is, they collect Skate City will match, and then we have a minimum threshold there too. So, they're going to they're going to get some decent coin out of the deal."
TESSA shared how donations help the nonprofit, they also accept monetary donations online.
"Donations are such a huge, huge part of everything that we do," Thiry said. "We are primarily government funded through grants, but also the donations really allow us to ramp up what we can do, give those to specific needs that we have for our survivors and our clients. So we're super excited, any money that comes in goes straight back to those survivors in the community."
What's that in the sky? A Manitou Springs fruitcake!

/ Arab states urged to secure new spectrum
Arab states urged to secure new spectrum
GSMA and SAMENA Telecommunications Council say mobile broadband demands require more spectrum
by Tom PayeFebruary 18, 2015, 10:57 AM
Mobile data traffic growth in the MEA region will be 72% from 2014 to 2019
The GSMA and South Asia, Middle East and North Africa (SAMENA) Telecommunications Council have called on Arab governments to secure more new spectrum for mobile to meet long-term demand for mobile broadband services.
In a statement, the two bodies urged telecoms regulatory authorities across the Middle East to collectively support the allocation of new candidate spectrum bands for mobile. They said that they would make their case at the 2015 ITU World Recommendation Conference (WRC-15), taking place in November.
"Decisive action by governments in the Arab region is required to safeguard the future of mobile broadband and to extend operator investment, employment and public revenues into the future," said Tom Phillips, chief regulatory officer at the GSMA.
"Without the allocation of these new spectrum bands to mobile at WRC-15, mobile operators in the Arab states will not have a clear investment path to support sustainable growth in mobile broadband."
The GSMA cited a recent Cisco study, which says that the Middle East and Africa will have the strongest mobile data traffic growth of any region with a 72% average annual growth rate, increasing 15-fold between 2014 and 2019.
ITU Member States have agreed to tackle this challenge at WRC-15 under agenda item 1.1. The ITU estimates that 1,340-1,960 MHz will be required by 2020 to meet mobile data traffic demand.
"An international mobile allocation simply provides a national regulator the flexibility to license additional spectrum for mobile when it is required to meet local market demand," said Dr Nasser Marafih, group CEO, Ooredoo and chairman of the SAMENA Council.
"Given that it can take more than a decade to move from the identification of the spectrum to the licensing and launch of mobile services, we would urge governments and regulators in the Arab states to support the new mobile bands and plan now to meet mobile data demand for 2020 and beyond."

Psycho Motel.
"We sat down and Adrian went; "Look man, I'm not Bruce, I'm not Steve; I can't push this band like that, I'm not a band leader kind of guy". - Andy Makin.
EXCLUSIVE: Exactly twenty years ago, Adrian Smith released his final album before stepping back into Iron Maiden. Slipping out on 24th November 1997, Psycho Motel's 'Welcome To The World' came and went without much fanfare, overshadowed by the guitarist's activities at the time when he reunited with Bruce Dickinson. With the pair soon returning to Iron Maiden, the story of Psycho Motel's somewhat forgotten final release has never been fully told - until now. We sat down with vocalist Andy Makin for an in-depth insight into the sessions, how the Iron Maiden reunion was on the cards even then, and how the band folded. Checking in; Eamon O'Neill.

Hi Andy, it's been twenty years since 'Welcome To The World' was released; how does that make you feel?
I spoke to Adrian about it in May in Cardiff, funny enough [when Iron Maiden were playing as part of their 'The Book Of Souls' tour], and he was aware of it as well. We both sort of looked at each other and went; "Oh god, twenty years!" He has lots of those sorts of landmarks anyway, so for him, I guess, they're less of an event.
Going right back to the start, how did you come to work with Adrian and Psycho Motel?
They put an advert in Kerrang! which said; "Singer wanted, 18 – 25". It said they had a record deal, and they had management. I was in a little band at the time, and we'd just done a demo, and I though; "Oh, I'll give it a try and see what happens", and sent it in and forgot about it. About a month later, I got home, and my Mrs said; "Oh, some bloke called Adrian has phoned about this band that you send a demo to. He's going to be calling back at 5pm". I was very dismissive, and then Adrian rang. I obviously didn't recognise his voice, and he was just chatting away, and then he said, very humbly; "I don't know if you know the band I was in, but I was in Iron Maiden".
Up until that point you had no idea that it was Adrian Smith that you were auditioning for?
Yeah, and at that moment, my jaw dropped, literally. He said; "I really liked the demo that you sent, and I want to get you down and maybe do an audition". So he continued; "I'll send you out the first Psycho Motel album; just pick a couple of songs off it, and we'll be in touch."
Were you a fan of Iron Maiden?
I've never really said to Adrian, but I was a massive Maiden fan, and still am. I was a huge Maiden fan, but I thought - I think, correctly - not to go that sort of, effusive nerd that wanted to jump out from me an just ask him a million questions and be all fanboy, especially if I was going to be a peer. So I never mentioned it, and still haven't.
Was that difficult to contain!?
Well, when we first started writing for the Psycho album, he had a massive poster in his studio which was the Donington '88 poster, with Maiden and Kiss, and all that. And I was there at that gig; I was sixteen at the time, and that was my first big Donington moment. You can't say that to the guy when you're sat next to him and he's just made you a cup of tea, and you're writing a tune. The first metal album that I ever bought was 'Killers', and one of my favourite guitar solos of all time is 'Prodigal Son'.

Back to that phone call, and what happened next?
Two days later I got the CD in the post. I put it on, and my heart just dropped, because it was Solli [vocalist on debut 'State Of Mind'], and Solli's got a great kind of Robert Plant voice, and it was all high notes. I could see there was a bluesy, Hendrix type vibe, and I was listening to Machine Head, and Sepultura and stuff like that. And I thought; "I can't sing this stuff", so I rewrote the melodies, because I just couldn't sing that high, and I just couldn't do them justice.
What do you remember about the day of the audition?
I turned up early, and it was me against another forty other people. I was the only one who looked out of place. I had combat trousers, a scruffy leather jacket, and really long, unkempt hair. The queues going into the auditions were like big, blonde haired dudes with skin-tight jeans.
And what happened as you went in to do your audition?
We all met, and Adrian said; "What songs have you learned", and I said I'd learned them all, and he said; "Pick one –I don't mind". So we did 'Killing Time', I think, and I did a bar of it, and you could see him looking confused, and I thought I'd blown it. But then he started singing the harmony to it, and I thought; "We might have something here." We did about three of four numbers, and the next thing I know – because he doesn't really give much away – he went out and he came back in with his wife Natalie, and Tony Metcalf, who was a manager in Sanctuary at the time, and they gave me this little mock interview; sort of real Gestapo, shine a light on me kind of thing! And then he said; "I want you to come back to my house and record a couple of demos, if you don't mind". Ok, fine!
So were you in, at that point?
It came down to me and another guy, in the end. I thought I'd done well. I'd recorded 'Rain', and one other track, and they asked me if I wanted to stay over. But I drove home thinking; "Have I got it?", because it went really well, we got on really well, he was my kind of guy – matey straight away – so I liked him a lot. Two weeks went by, and as you can imagine, it was absolute hell thinking; "Have I got this or not?" And then he rang up and said; "I'm sorry it's taken so long, but it's between you and another guy". I can't remember his name, but all I know is he was Irish.
Was there a final audition process?
We had to go to a studio in Hammersmith to be filmed to see how we were on camera performing with the band. It was Nova studios in Hammersmith, and there was nobody else in the room other than the band, and a couple of management people. But the other guy was so nervous - and I've seen the video of it - and he blew it; he was doing all the mic stand, rock poses and all that stuff, and it just wasn't what they were looking for.
Which was great for you, obviously.
The funny thing was, even then Adrian couldn't decide, because he can't decide on anything! In the end he showed the videos to Bruce Dickinson, and Bruce looked at both videos and went; "Well, it's that guy, isn't it, obviously!", and so that's how I got the job.
How soon was it after you landed the gig that you started recording the album?
It was like a month. We started writing, and he sent me off with a little Tascam recorder thing, which I couldn't figure out how to work. I went back to my little house in South Wales, and he said; "Any ideas, make sure you bring them when we start writing. We'll figure out some writing days when you come down to the house and we'll write".
Was your contribution to the album solely lyrics and melodies?
Well, yeah, apart from 'With You Again'. There are riffs on there that are mine, but I never got to play guitar on the album, which is something that still bugs me to this day. But this is still a record in my eyes; we did thirteen songs in two weeks. We just didn't stop. I've never taped with anybody quite so easily as him.
The album features a pair of guests in Dave Murray, and Scott Gorham; were you around when they recorded?
I was there every day, and I saw everything. I've even got photos of them playing [see collage above]. I'd met Davey anyway, because there was this winter party at Adrian's house before we started recording the album. I'd also met Bruce and Scott there, and Scott was the one for me, because I was a huge Thin Lizzy fan. I mean, watching that guy record; watching Davey and Adrian, yeah, there's passion there and everything else, but they're also studiously doing what they do. With Scott, he records like he plays live; vinegar strokes face, every single bit!
The general consensus seems to suggest that Dave Murray is a much more off the cuff solo writer than Adrian; is this what you saw?
When you get them both in a room, they are very similar in their approach; not sound-wise, but because they grew up together. They intuitively know what each other is doing. The harmony solo section in 'With You Again', Dave wrote that. When we demoed it, Adrian did this massive, standing on top of a cliff with the wind blowing in your hair kind of solo, but he said; "I want to get Davey on that so it'll be like a two-guitar thing", and when Davey turned up, he said; "I've got this little harmony part for it", so he'd already written a little section. And his solo, it sounds off the cuff, but he's so consistent; he'll just do variations on three or four takes, and that will be it. Adrian is studious with certain parts of the solos, but if you get him in a Hendrix-ey mood, he'll just go off for days on blues. He's one of the greatest blues guitarists I've seen from the rock genre.
What was it like watching Adrian and Dave record?
It's strange when you get into a room with someone that you know their sound, their tone. With a singer, it's never surprising – that's their voice – but when it's a guitar player's voice, and you know that tone because you've grown up with it, and they're stood in front of you and playing it? Yeah, that puts a smile on your face.
What for you, are the standout tracks on the album?
Well 'With You Again', because it was about my dad, and 'The Last Chain', I like. I like them all really. There's a couple of weak ones; 'No Loss To Me'. That was a deliberate; "Let's do a heavy song for the European fans - the more Germanic sort of people", to make it a bit more obviously heavy metal. It came out a riff from a Silverchair song that was on MTV at the time.
So was 'No Loss To Me' an ironic title?
Absolutely. I remember recording the vocals at the time, and [producer] Simon Hanhart holding up a placard saying 'colostomy' and various other things! Yeah, it wasn't my favourite. Also, 'Hypocrisy'; we put that in because Gary [Leideman, bassist] had the riff, and so to keep everything equal, we had one of Gary's songs, and Mike [Sturgis, drums] wrote 'Innocence', so his track was on there as well. There was a song called 'Winter's Child' that we never had on the album that we demoed that I think was probably better than 'Hypocrisy', and perhaps we should have done that, but it was more of a sort of democratic thing.

You must have been very excited for the album's release.
I was contracted for the recording of the album, I had a publishing deal with Virgin in Japan, and it was like; "Okay, this is going all right". They were saying; "We'll release it in Japan first", and I had an itinerary for the next year for the interviews and stuff, which was kind of shuffling around between our stuff, and Bruce's stuff as well, because Adrian was also doing that as well.
Was Adrian's commitment to working with Bruce Dickinson beginning to show at that stage?
Yeah, I mean, some of the mixing of the album I was doing with Simon in the studio whilst Adrian was off on tour with Bruce. While that was going on, there were talks of another support slot with Maiden, TV stuff; there were lots of promises, but I was like; "Okay, whatever's going to happen is going to happen".
In the end there was no touring at all for the album; did you get to perform with Psycho Motel at all?
Only at a charity show we did. That was at Café de Paris in London. We played with Page and Plant, Arthur Brown, Mica Paris, and Thunder. We did a covers band with Adrian and Scott [Gorham] doing Lizzy tunes. That was possibly the best thing that I've ever done, just as a fanboy thing. It was a good night, and we went down really, really well.
Did you play any other material, or was it solely Thin Lizzy covers?
I sang 'Wasted Years' with Bruce, and we also did 'Psycho Motel' the actual song, from the first album. I sang a duet with Bruce on that too. It was the same night of the Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams reunion thing over in Battersea Power Station [the 'Concert Of Hope', Sunday 29th December 1997]. They'd finished their show and they tried to get in to the Café de Paris, and they weren't allowed in, because I don't think the bouncers recognised them. I said that over the mic to this huge cheer! It was all downhill from there, really! *Laughing*
Bruce and Adrian were readying 'Accident of Birth' at that time; did you know that it was going to overpower Psycho Motel?
It was never a surprise. It wasn't overpowering the Psycho thing; Psycho was actively encouraged not to do anything by certain management. There's two cash cows which is Maiden, and Bruce, and rightly so. Adrian's solo stuff was all well and good when it was just pleasing him in a little band that they could gig with, but then 'Welcome To The World' came out, and it wasn't formulaic; it was a bit different for him, and I think it worried certain managers at the time, because it was like suddenly Adrian was like; "Hang on a minute, this is good, I want to push this now". But I think there was an inevitability of the Maiden reshuffle a couple of years later, especially with the consolidation of their future earnings with their selling off of their back catalogue.
Could see the Iron Maiden reunion coming, even as far back as 1997?
Yeah, it wasn't much of a surprise when they got back together a couple of years later, let's put it that way. The thing is with Maiden, it's a massive machine, but it's also very much still a pub band run by one guy. It very much is, and I love Maiden, and especially Steve Harris; I think he's absolutely amazing and a lovely chap. It's Steve's band, and he showed that it was his band when he got Blaze in and they went that way; you could see the only person steering that ship was Steve, and it still is to a certain extent. I think the way Adrian left, it hurt him a lot. I can't go into too much about it, but Bruce has alluded to it in his book anyway, so I've been told.
How did you find out that Psycho Motel wasn't going to be continuing?
Adrian was playing with Bruce at the Astoria 2 [on 8th December 1998], and after the sound check we went for a meal. We sat down and he went; "Look man, I'm not Bruce, I'm not Steve – I can't push this band like that. I'm not a band leader kind of guy". And I said; "I know that, it's all right – don't worry about it! We did what we did, and it was great". There's nothing much could be said, really. At the end of the day, he's very much still a mate of mine, and he's a lovely, lovely guy.
Looking forward, and you're back with new band Nine Miles Down.
Am I having another crack of the whip, or am I just content to die old and arthritic with a Les Paul in my hand? Both, I think! A guy called Eddie Marsh got in touch with me just say how much he liked Psycho Motel, randomly, and I found out that he was also a guitar player. So subsequently he joined the band, but ironically, he then called me up and said he'd been offered the job of Janick Gers' guitar tech. But I recorded with him, and a guy called Tom Williams on the drums, who's this child prodigy, and an amazing drummer. We're still trying to find a bass player at the minute.
How is it sounding?
There's no rules with the writing, and no trying to fit in a box, really. I like nerdy prog, and Eddie's sort of more into his weirdy stuff as well, but he's a classic metal kind of guy crossed with Dream Theater kind of stuff. Finally Tom comes from the Trivium and Lamb of God kind of school.
When will the album 'Fractures' be available?
It's just the single 'Mockingbird' at the minute. We're holding on to the album to see if we can get any label interest. We've been talking to a few people, so we'll see. At the end of the day, if it does nothing, I'm hanging out with my best mates playing music. I have no illusions; we're not going to change the world or take over the world, but if I can just occupy a small slice of it, I'd be happy.
Finally, is there a chance some Psycho Motel material will make It into the Nine Miles Down live set?
Yeah, I think so. 'The Last Chain' we want to do, and we did talk about recording 'With You Again'. I also talked to Adrian about maybe doing a solo on it, but do you know what, I tried recording it, and I can't get it sounding better than the original. I don't want it to sound like a pale imitation of something just so I can say that Adrian played on something. But yeah, we'll definitely chuck in one or two Psycho songs. It would be nice to have them live again.

Yuyutsu
Contemporary watercolor painting of Yuyutsu
Bow and arrows
Dhritrashtra (father)
Sughada (mother)
Gandhari (step-mother)
100 half brothers including Duryodhana, Dushasana and Vikarna
Duhsala (half sister)
Yuyutsu (Sanskrit: युयुत्सु) in the Hindu epic Mahabharata was a son of Dhritarashtra with Gandhari's maid (named Sughada in later retelling). He was the paternal half - sibling to Gandhari's children: Duryodhana and the rest of the 99 Kaurava brothers and their sister Dushala. Eventually, he was the only son of Dhritarashtra who survived the Kurukshetra war. He was the only son of Dhritarashtra to fight for Pandavas.
The word yuyutsu is an adjective formed from the desiderative stem of the verb root "yudh" (fight, wage war), meaning "wishing to fight, bellicose." The Mahabharata cites the following other names for Yuyutsu- [1]
Dhārtarāstra (धार्तराष्ट्र) - son of Dhritarashtra
Kauravya (कौरव्य) - descendant of Kuru
Vaishyaputra (वैश्यपुत्र) - son of a Vaishya woman
Karana (करण) - begotten by a Kshatriya on a Vaisya woman
Yuyutsu was a son of Dhritarashtra and Sughada. Yuyutsu was born after Duryodhana and Bhima and before Dushasana, other 98 Kauravas brothers and Dussala. Thus, Dhritarashtra had 102 children (101 sons and 1 daughter).[2]
Righteous in the Kaurava camp
Yuyutsu is celebrated as a moral warrior who chose the path of righteousness, in spite of being born in circumstances that predisposed him to evil. He forwent his family bonds in order to side with dharma.
Also, Yuyutsu saved the life of Bhima by informing the Pandavas about Duryodhana's cunning schemes, which included poisoning water.[3][4] Both Yuyutsu and Vikarna abhorred Duryodhana's conspiracies and evil schemes; however, Vikarna stays loyal to the family and perishes in the war.[5] Yuyutsu shifts from Kaurava camp to the Pandava camp. Yuyutsu fought the battle on the side of the Pandavas. He was one among the 11 Maharathis (capable of fighting 720,000 warriors simultaneously) among the son of Dhritarashtra.

The research within our LUMC departments is conducted within departmental research programmes. Below you will find a list showing all research programmes for each LUMC department. For each programme a brief content description is given.
Every research programme within the LUMC is connected/associated with one of our biomedical research profiles and with at most two generic research profiles. This connection stimulates a multidisciplinary approach of research which often yields new and innovative insights.


Last week we talked about freelance workers and how to get them, but sometimes you need someone for more than specific project. If you simply need extra help for a portion of time, what you are looking for is a temporary worker. Many businesses employ temporary during workers during the holidays so many times temporary workers are called seasonal workers.
Temp workers can be an amazingly useful resource to your business. Keep in mind that a temporary worker is someone who is hired to fill a short-term position. These workers are always employed for less than a year. Sometimes, a business might find a seasonal or temporary worker indispensable and will hire them for a permanent part-time or full-time position, or even utilize them on a freelance basis.
Labor Laws – Labor laws still apply to your temporary workers. Your workers are protected by the Fair Labor Standards Act as well as other laws to protect them from an unsafe workplace.
Taxes – Your temporary workers are still subject to the same tax laws that a permanent employee is subject to.
Social Security/Medicare – Just as with income taxes, you must withhold wages for Social Security and Medicare and match the amount.
Workers' Compensation – If an employee is injured on the job, even if they are only a temporary worker, you still need to provide this benefit.
Unemployment – Some states do not require unemployment benefits for seasonal workers working 10 weeks or less, but beyond that you are not exempt from paying this. You can check with the Department of Labor for more data for your state.
Easier to fluctuate paid time as work needs it: If you have a couple of temps, each working 20 hours a week and one calls out sick one day, the other may be able to fill in. This flexibility also makes it easier to lower hours if you do not need them working as much.
Can add a specialization to your business – A temp worker might be just the thing you need you hire someone with a special skill set to fit your specific needs during a specific time of year.
They can help you evaluate workforce needs – Are you getting close to the point where you need to hire someone full-time? On the individual level, having someone as a temporary or seasonal worker allows you to see how they handle the job first with less risk. On a business level, this temporary arrangement can help you figure out if you would benefit from having an extra employee in general.
Time and money savings – If you are hiring someone as a temporary or seasonal employee, you do not need to worry about paid time off and other extras.
Is there a better job out there? - This is the most obvious one, if someone is a temporary/seasonal worker they will not have the same level of loyalty as a permanent employee. What's to keep them from going to another job with better pay, or that wants them full-time and permanent?
Training – Not all temps are going to come ready to handle what you need, so you may need to train them to do the job. This is an investment that you won't benefit from long term unless you hire them as a permanent worker.
So you have you decided to get some temporary or seasonal employees? Should you hire them yourself or go through an agency?
It removes your need to recruit people personally. That means you'll have more time to spend on your business.
Using an agency removes the need to worry about tax issues. An agency is responsible for paying the temporary employee and covering the taxes and any benefits.
If a temp from an agency is not working out for you, you can get them replaced within a business day or two.
You have no personal interaction with the employee before they show up for work.
Even though you do not have to worry about taxes and benefits, you may end up paying more as you are covering their pay plus the pay for time of the employee at the temp agency running payroll.
If you decide you like a temp, you may not be able to hire them outright as you may need to sign a contract for a set time period. Not all contracts allow you to "buyout" the rest of the time on the contract.
So there you have it, temporary/seasonal workers in a nutshell. If you have a project and do not want a freelancer, or need someone from a particular time of year, a temporary or seasonal worker might be the thing you are looking for.
Note: We are based in the United States, so some of the rules and regulations we mention may be different for businesses in other countries; you should research laws in your own country.

The M101 Group is a loose group of galaxies located in the constellation Ursa Major.  The group is named after the brightest galaxy in the group, the Pinwheel Galaxy (M101).  Most of the other members of the group are companions of the Pinwheel Galaxy.  The group itself is one of many located within the Virgo Supercluster (i.e. the Local Supercluster).

Members

The table below lists galaxies that have been consistently identified as group members in the Nearby Galaxies Catalog, the survey of Fouque et al., the Lyons Groups of Galaxies (LGG) Catalog, and the three group lists created from the Nearby Optical Galaxy sample of Giuricin et al.

Other possible members galaxies (galaxies listed in only one or two of the lists from the above references) include the irregular galaxies NGC 5238 and UGC 8508.

Nearby groups

The M51 Group, which includes the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51) and the Sunflower Galaxy (M63), is located to the southeast of the M101 Group, and the NGC 5866 Group is located to the northwest.  The distances to these three groups (as determined from the distances to the individual member galaxies) are similar, which suggests that the M51 Group, the M101 Group, and the NGC 5866 Group are actually part of a single large, loose, elongated group.  However, most group identification methods (including those used by the references cited above) identify these three groups as separate entities.

RECENTLY AUTHOR SALMAN RUSHDIE, an émigré from Bombay, India, now on his "third continent," was on the radio to promote his latest book, Quichotte, and said that you know a place is home when you love it. "I can completely see myself in the Bay Area. That would work for me."
To which I'd add that home is also a place whose roots you can graft onto and make your own. That's what happened to me when I left Bombay for San Francisco 40 years ago. In time, the Bay Area's idiosyncrasies and my shared history with the area became muscle memory, another form of "roots." I grew to "know" the Bay Area, not just love it, and I could navigate it easily.
Perhaps that's what Sausalito designer Charles de Lisle is referring to in our "Space Makers" podcast, excerpted in this issue. He suggests that when muscle memory kicks in, looking for the right color, tracking down products and knowing the environment become instinctive. When that happens, a designer can "focus on the part that makes a design special," he says. Roots are the recurring theme in this issue. A 50-year old Napa winery now has a modern version of itself in the Alexander Valley. Different to look at but with a deep sense of sustainability that is the winery's hallmark, it is designed by Piechota Architecture, whose work appears for the first time in SPACES. In Noe Valley, San Francisco design firm Síol Studios and architect Ross Levy transformed a dark Craftsman-style cottage into a light-filled modern space for a young family — without fully obliterating the original. Architect Chris Dorman, designer of the new Watershed restaurant in Mill Valley, built himself a new hillside home in Tamalpais Valley that showcases space-enhancing tricks he gleaned from architects Adolf Loos, Frank Lloyd Wright and other "mentors." In the East Bay, architect Chad DeWitt uncovered a forgotten 1950s masterpiece and gave it new life, and south of San Jose, for a retired San Francisco couple, Aidlin Darling Design created a gorgeous modern retreat that respects the land and trees — humankind's first home, if you will.
In our Tableside column, read about Palette, a new San Francisco dining hot spot that opened in place of a very old one. Our highlighted Maker is Rafael Arano, a young artist who became one of Ken Fulk's star muralists, working with ancient techniques. In Voices we learn how Catherine Bailey invigorated Sausalito ceramics factory Heath, now over 60. In Focus, find the art of Burning Man, now approaching 50. In Rear Window, see how the history of San Francisco's finger piers affected the growth of the Exploratorium — also 50. On the Rise shines a light on how obsolete structures are being revived as multi-experiential spaces, a legacy of 1960s communalism. In Landing we take you to blissful Lake Orta, Italy, on whose shores Fantini, the award-winning faucet manufacturer, has just created a state-of-the-art resort right next to its 70-year-old factory where the company took root. I hope these flashbacks also take you into the future.

What do I say about love that hasn't already been said before? What do I write here that separates me from the millions of poets and lovers who have come before me, and spoke about their notion of love? A lot has been said about love and the idea of it.
What I want to write about is the love for your art. What you do. When I listen to Carl Sagan talk about space, I don't feel happy or moved at his words, I feel jealous. And that's not because he found his calling. I don't think there is such a thing as calling. That's just a glamorized concept sold to us by charlatans. I feel jealous because Sagan decided that this is what he wanted to do, and he did not let go. What you describe as 'found his calling', I call hard work. As John Mayer said correctly 'Love ain't a thing, love is a verb'. Its about action, conscious and determined. Through that action, and the fruit it bears, comes love. Sometimes taking that action requires all the courage you can summon, and that makes all the difference in the world.
One of the biggest things I wanted to do for myself this year was finding the courage to take that action. Create the art that I want to create. And so on this Valentine's Day, I wish that courage for you and me. Let's find the courage to work hard. The love will follow.

Surveying The Post-Trade Landscape: The Diamondbacks' 26th Man
By swapping two regular position players - Chris Johnson and Justin Upton - for one, Martin Prado, the trade did help reduce the overstock in this department for the Diamondbacks. But there still seems to be one player too many on the roster. Who'll be the odd man,. literally out?

McDonald's gonna McDonald...
Ralph Freso
The regular starting line-up appears pretty set at this point. Miguel Montero behind the plate, with Paul Goldschmidt, Aaron Hill, Cliff Pennington and Martin Prado around the infield, and Jason Kubel, Adam Eaton and Cody Ross manning the outfield. On the bench, Wil Nieves and Gerardo Parra appear all but locks to have spots. That leaves, in all probability, three spots left for the four remaining players: McDonald, Bloomquist, and the two new Erics, Chavez and Hinske. While we'll still have to pay them, it seems that someone will be
Several factors should be taken into account. We are looking to cover all four infield positions: even if we have regular starters there, they will need a day off every now and again. Handedness when they bat matters: both in relation to the starters, so they can be used to pinch-hit in later innings, and for platoon purposes. Flexibility of position is a plus, and it'd be nice if they could actually produce, both with the bat and the glove. Finally, while these are all "sunk costs", some are more sunk costly than other. Let's go over each man's credentials and see what they have to offer. Positions played are over the past three seasons, in descending order of appearances, min 10 starts.
Willie Bloomquist (RHB)
Age on Opening Day: 35
Last year: 338 PAs, .302/.325/.398 = .724 OPS, -0.4 bWAR, 0.8 fWAR
Last three years: 918 PAs, .280/.316/.370 = .686 OPS, 0.5 bWAR, 0.4 fWAR
Positions played: SS, LF, RF, 3B
2013 Salary: $1.9 million
Bloomquist certainly has a useful degree of flexibility, with ability to play on the left-hand side of the infield, and experience at both corner outfield positions. However, the downside is that... well, he isn't actually very good at them, with a total of about half a WAR since 2010. On the fielding side, over his career, while Willie has played everywhere but catcher, he has a negative UZR at them all except second, where he sits at +0.5. While he hit .302 last reason, it was a remarkably empty .302. Of the 1,182 players who have batted .300 over 300+ PA in the past 25 years, only eight had a lower OPS than Bloomquist.
Eric Chavez (LHB)
Last year: 313 PAs, .281/.348/.496 = .845 OPS, 1.5 bWAR, 1.8 fWAR
Positions played: 3B, DH
2013 Salary: $3 million
Since we're still in the National League [the Astros having taken that particular bullet for us], Chavez is very much a one-trick pony. Okay, two: he plays third-base and hammers right-handed pitching. We saw that when we looked at platoon splits last week, where his 181-point OPS difference trailed only Cody Ross among D-backs with more than a couple of big-league season. That was particularly true in 2012, where his OPS against righties was .908, compared to .382 versus southpaws. Used properly - as last year, where only 12% of his PAs were vs. LHP - he could be a potent weapon. Won't be the five-time Gold Glover he was at third, but shouldn't embarrass himself.
Eric Hinske (LHB)
Last year: 147 PAs, .197/.272/.311 = .583 OPS, -1.0 bWAR, -1.1 fWAR
Last three years: 731 PAs, .236/.315/.407 = .721 OPS, -0.8 bWAR, 0.5 fWAR
Positions played: LF, 1B, RF
2013 Salary: $1.35 million
A couple of years ago, this might not have been a bad signing, but Hinske's numbers completely cratered last year, hitting below the Uecker Line over 91 games. He was particularly useless off the bench, going 8-for-57, a .140 clip, and in 300-odd games as a PH, his career line is .218 /.317/.359, a .676 OPS. The main thing Hinske has in his favor over the other candidates, is that he does have experience playing first. That would make him a credible platoon candidate for Goldie, who has historically had some issues against RHPWDSPOHCH [right-handed pitchers who don't smoke pot or have crappy haircuts].
John McDonald (RHB)
Positions played: SS, 2B, 3B
Despite being the oldest and lightest-hitting of the quartet, both bWAR and fWAR agree that he has been the most useful over the past three. The reason is well-known - McDonald isn't called "the Prime Minister of Defense" for nothing [though the name given to him when with Toronto makes more sense if you know the first Canadian Prime Minister was also called John McDonald]. Does have some flexibility to play around the infield: second-base is probably his best position, but is good at shortstop, and seems to have improved significantly at third, after some early struggles at the hot corner.
Of course, the problem may end up solving itself during spring training, after McDonald falls (or is pushed?) down the stairs at Salt River Fields and breaks his hip... A trade of one of the four may also happen. But I suspect it's a decision more likely to be taken by Kevin Towers and Kirk Gibson, closer to Opening Day than when the players report in a couple of weeks.

Dishonorable Ambassadors: Spies and Secret Diplomacy in Ottoman Istanbul
By Emrah Safa Gürkan
Archivum Ottomanicum, Vol. 35 (2018)
Introduction: In the sixteenth century, the Habsburgs and the Ottomans clashed for the dominance of Europe and the Mediterranean and engaged in a global rivalry that affected every polity along the shores of the Mediterranean. This essay concentrates on the diplomatic negotiations between two imperial capitals, Istanbul and Madrid, during the second half of the sixteenth century, at the height of the Ottoman-Habsburg Rivalry. It seeks to demonstrate how the lack of open diplomatic relations between two empires and the absence of resident ambassadors in each other's capitals provided a special case for the study of espionage in the sixteenth century Europe and the Mediterranean.
Several studies have emphasized the role of diplomats in information gathering and demonstrated the intertwined nature of diplomacy and espionage. Enjoying the privileges granted by their diplomatic immunity, no matter how imperfectly states observed their status in the sixteenth century, early modem ambassadors operated as network leaders or spymasters; the best examples of which were the Venetian ambassadors in Istanbul and Rome or the Habsburg ambassadors in Venice and Genoa.
These honorable spies, honorable espions, recruited spies and informants, corrupted govemment officials, related rumors in the marketplace, eavesdropped in diplomatic and social circles and facilitated the transmission of gathered intelligence as well as payments to be made to information providers.

Ecuador Local Yearly Festivals
Mindo Cloudforest Travel Guide and Tips
Weather of the Ecuadorian Highlands
The spirit of the Ecuadorian people comes out during the festivals and holidays here. People take to the streets in celebration during events in Quito, Cuenca, Latacunga, Ambato, and beyond where dancing, parades, and music bring fun times and insight into the culture. Keep reading for six events to check out when in Ecuador.
Diablada de Pillaro
From the 1st to the 5th of each January the Andean city of Pillaro's streets fill in a tradition that dates back to the Spanish. Indigenous people of the region dress in colorful costumes with elaborate masks, playing the devil as a way of exercising demons for the coming year. The tradition started as a protest against the Spanish, and has continued to become one of the best festivals in Ecuador. Communities come together, dancing as groups to bands and everyone gets into the act. Men, women, and children of all ages join in the fun, as well as travelers in town for the festivities. Folklore says that if you do dress as the devil and join in, you have to do it seven times or strange things will start to happen in your day to day life.
Fiesta de las Frutas in Ambato
Ambato is often overlooked on itineraries or for festivals in Ecuador. It's a vibrant place where the last week of February or early days of March sees people and floats take to the streets. The event was started almost 70 years ago, as a way of celebrating the city and its resilient people who survived an earthquake and got back on their feet to rebuild out of the ruins.
It takes place in conjunction with Carnival, and more than 30,000 people flock to the city from all over the province. International dance troupes, artists selling crafts, parades, and music are highlights that make it a sight worth experiencing first hand.
Eastern Holy Week in Quito
By and large, most of the people in Ecuador are Catholic-a reminder of the Spanish occupation. Holy week, Good Friday, and Easter in Quito bring out a different set of events, including a parade on Good Friday where thousands march in solemn piety. Dressed in purple costumes where seas of color are matched my people bearing crosses, crowned by barbed wire, and walking barefoot on hot pavement, the procession is a spectacle that puts you at the center of the spiritual culture of the country.
Inti Raymi, Otavalo
The Inti Raymi festival in Ecuador dates back to the Inca and the Canari people before them. It a festival of the sun, where celebrations are part fiestas and part rituals. Indigenous people gather at waterfalls and rivers in purification ceremonies before dancing in the streets following the Aya Uma-or spirit of the mountain. Fruit is brought to give to mother earth, and the whole event takes place as thanks for the harvest and the bounty found during the year.
Mama Negra, Latacunga
Held at the end of September and again at the beginning of November, the Mama Negra Festival is a spectacle that pulls out all the stops. Dancers in colorful costumes and masks, music, and roving tricksters fill the streets. The festival is a mix of tractions and cultures. African, Aymaran, Incan, Mayan and Spanish influences are part of the proceedings. It dates back to 1742, when the nearby Cotopaxi volcano erupted. The town's residents asked the Virgin de las Mercedes for help and when the city was saved, the festival was founded out of gratitude.
During the Spanish occupation, they brought slaves from Africa to work in the mines around Latacunga. Their influence brought new aspects to the festival, Mama Negra, or the black mother is a central figure who is played by a man and is seen in the parades and ceremonies throughout the day and at the parties that take over at night.
Independence of Cuenca
The first week of November in Cuenca is a time for celebration and remembrance. Day of the Dead is a time when families visit cemeteries, bringing food and drink for their loved ones.
The days that follow are reserved for parades, streets lined with artists and vendors, music, dancing and processions that feature the indigenous cultures and communities of the parishes around town.
Well worth the trip, Cuenca's heritage is on display with flying colors, as the people celebrate Ecuador's third largest city's independence from the Spanish.

More Contestants Emerge in People's Hero Auditions in Owerri
Vanessa Obioha
Following the qualifications of 11 contestants from Enugu to participate in the live show of the new reality talent show, People's Hero, a total of 24 contestants were recently given the good news of advancing to the next stage of audition.
The lucky contestants were among the almost thousand talents who gathered at Owerri this past Saturday for the audition.
These contestants have survived the pre-selection stage and the judges have found them worthy to proceed to the next stage of the auditions. The selected talents include four spoken word artists, seven singers, eight dancers and five actors.
Describing the experience as exciting and fulfilling, the three judges, Illbliss, Racheal Okonkwo and Marc Swagz unanimously admitted the contestants' performances were a mix of the excellent, the good and the ugly.
According to them, the quality of the talents from the Enugu auditions were better than those at the Owerri auditions. They claimed this made their decision quite easy in selecting the contestants who qualified for the next round.
The selected contestants will have to go through another round of auditions for the final nine to emerge and participate in the live shows happening this month.
Designed by Hero lager beer to identify the best talent in the Southeast and reward the winner with a cash prize of N7 million with a consolation prizes of N2 million and N1 million for the first and second runner up, the Marketing Manager of the brand, Obumneke Okoli said the brand has always claimed there is a hero in everyone and what happened in Owerri just confirmed Hero's claim.
He said this explains why the brand is providing platforms to enable Nigerian youths bring forth their best. He reiterated his confidence that whoever emerges 'The People's Hero' will indeed be a huge performer in the entertainment industry.
The People's Hero continues to air on MTV Base every Saturday by 9pm with a repeat show on Wednesdays by 9pm.

Organizations may tolerate, accept or embrace BYOD—letting employees use their own mobile devices for business purposes—but they all struggle with the blurred line of protecting company data without infringing on individual privacy. Box recently announced two initiatives—Box Trust, and Box for EMM—that promise to give Box's customers and their employees some peace of mind when using BYOD. Box currently serves more than 27 million users across 240,000 businesses—including 99 percent of the Fortune 500.
Box announced Box Trust on December 9—unveiling an ecosystem of formidable security vendors: Symantec, Splunk, Palo Alto Networks, OpenDNS, Sumo Logic, Skyhigh Networks, HP, Okta, MobileIron, CipherCloud, Recommind, Ping Identity, Netskope, OneLogin, Guidance Software, and Code Green Networks are all part of the invitation-only Box Trust team, providing a comprehensive collection of data protection, governance, and compliance tools for Box customers.
In addition to Box Trust, Box also announced Box for EMM. Box for EMM is an app (available for iOS and Android) that allows businesses to select from and combine multiple mobile device management solutions based on their specific needs. Box for EMM can be restricted to send data only to other managed apps and remotely wipe app data, while enabling the organization to retain full ownership and control over original app licenses.
Box Trust, and Box for EMM can help businesses store data in the cloud, and enable users to access, share, or collaborate on it securely from virtually any device or platform. But competitors are encroaching: Dropbox recently announced APIs for enterprise tools to challenge Box as a business-class cloud storage solution, and Microsoft threatens to undermine the entire business model by offering unlimited OneDrive storage for Office 365 customers. Box's new Box Trust and Box EMM are part of the larger arms race to evolve from simple cloud storage into other corporate services.

Solar energy is making headway in some of the most remote areas of the world, places where diesel fuel is hard to come by, and electric power is sorely needed for light and communication to other parts of the world. Now, thanks to a company called Global Himalayan Expeditions (GHE), even the most far-flung parts of the planet can have access to cheap electric power.
GHE has succeeded in providing reliable, affordable electric power to perhaps the most remote mountain villages and communities in the world—the Himalayas. The company has installed 95 DC solar-energy storage microgrids, producing 19.6 kW in the 22 villages of India's Kargil and Ladakh provinces. Many people living in these distant villages have never had electricity. One can only imagine the surprise and delight of villagers who suddenly have 2,000 LED light bulbs in 60 LED streetlights illuminating homes and pathways. Not to mention the convenience of watching world news and entertainment on 36 LED television sets. In fact, the microgrids have improved the lives of 5,130 Himalayan community residents. In addition, an estimated 8,200, mainly mountain hikers and explorers who have passed through these villages during the past three years, also benefit from access to electric power for light and communication.
Designing, engineering and installing the DC solar-storage microgrids drew on the combined talents of many experts in a diverse array of disciplines. The remote villages in India's Kargil and Ladakh provinces can only be reached via a four to five-day hike on foot. And that's just to reach a vehicular traffic road. So the logistics of getting equipment and supplies to these villages created quite a challenge. Working with local village residents, GHE built 15 fully electrified mountain home-stays, which can be used by both villagers and hiker/explorers. The home-stays have created quite a boon to villagers helping to increase tourism income by as much as $24,000.
Villages once heavily dependent on kerosene now have an emissions-free alternative to generating electricity. The power distributed by GHE's microgrids means villagers spend far less on kerosene, which, in turn, has reduced annual carbon gas emissions by 157 tons.
To keep the sustainability ball rolling, GHE has set up education centers and an e-based online distance learning program on sustainable living and commercial enterprise. So far, the company has trained 35 villagers to be solar technicians. These new green jobs will help ensure that solar-energy storage microgrids will keep running for years to come. GHE currently draws on the skills and talents of 43 villagers to help with expeditions, village surveys and solar grid installations.
GHE has an aggressive roll-out when it comes to electrifying these remote villages. In 2017, the company plans to install solar-storage microgrids in Ladakh province's remaining villages, which at this point, amounts to roughly about 30 new microgrids. Future plans also include bringing solar-storage microgrids, communications technology, educational and other resources to neighboring mountain communities in Nepal, to Kazakhstan and Peru. A handful of hard-to-reach villages in northwestern Nepal lack electric grid access and can only be reached via arduous 10 to 15-day trek. GHE's goal is to bring sustainable, emission-free power to the world's most remote communities. Efforts to electrify these mountain communities with emissions-free power generation mark the beginning of a worldwide drive to "solarize" the planet and get everyone off fossil fuels.
Be sure to check them out if you're interested in lending a hand and gaining some solar-storage microgrid experience, or if you're simply eager to trek out to some of the most remote and awe-inspiring mountain villages in the world.

When you rent a roll-off dumpster, you may be enticed to throw anything and everything indoors. Common things which people commonly dispose of in a dumpster contain solid waste material and most routine home and construction waste, together with tree limbs and landscaping debris. They could also be utilized for company and commercial cleanouts, house renovations, getting rid of trash when you are moving to a new home, larger landscaping occupations and more.
A record of stuff you CAn't set in a roll-off dumpster comprises paints and solvents, automotive fluids, pesticides, chemicals, electronics and batteries. Should you make an effort to contain these items, you will probably end up getting an additional fee. Other things which will undoubtedly incur an additional fee include tires, mattresses and appliances. Extra heavy stuff are also not enabled; items which are too heavy may exceed authorities transportation regulations and be unsafe to haul.
Do I need a permit to rent a dumpster in Hilmar?
If this is your first time renting a dumpster in Hilmar, you may not know what is legally permissible in regards to the placement of the dumpster. Should you plan to put the dumpster totally on your own property, you are not usually required to get a permit.
If, however, your job requires you to put the dumpster on a public road or roadway, this will generally mean that you have to make an application for a permit. It's almost always wise to consult your local city or county offices (possibly the parking enforcement office) in case you have a question about the requirement for a permit on a road.
If you neglect to get a permit and find out afterwards that you were required to have one, you will likely face a fine from your local authorities. In most in Hilmar cases, though, you should be just fine without a permit as long as you keep the dumpster on your property.
As with any service, it is almost always an excellent strategy to allow your dumpster as far ahead as you possibly can in order to ensure that the dumpster will be accessible when you require it. If you wait until the final minute, there's no promise that the business will soon have the capacity to fill your order.
Two or three days notice is generally sufficient to ensure your dumpster delivery on time. Remember that the most active days have a tendency to be on Mondays and Fridays (encircling the weekend), thus if you can plan your mission for the midst of the week, you've got a better opportunity of getting the dumpster you'll need.
If you find out you require a dumpster the next day or even the same day, please go right ahead and call the business. If they have what you need, they will surely make arrangements to get it to you as soon as possible.
What if I need my dumpster in Hilmar picked up early?
When you make arrangements to rent a dumpster in Hilmar, part of your rental agreement comprises a specified length of time you are allowed to use the container. You generally base this time on how long you think your project might take. The bigger the job, the longer you'll need the dumpster. Most businesses in Hilmar give you a rate for a particular amount of days. Should you exceed that amount of days, you will pay an extra fee per day. In case the job goes more quickly than expected, you might be ended with the dumpster earlier than you anticipated.
If this really is true, give the dumpster business a call and they'll likely come pick your container up early; this will enable them to rent it to someone else more quickly. You typically WOn't get a discount on your rate should you ask for early pick-up. Your rental fee includes 7 days (or whatever your term is), whether you use them all or not.
The weight limitation on 40 yard containers generally ranges from 4 to 8 tons (8,000 to 16,000 pounds). Be very conscious of this limitation and do your best not to surpass it. If you do go over the limit, you can incur overage charges, which add up fast.

Inside Casa de Monitorização: The Role of Dialogue in Election Monitoring Processes
3 April 2019 News
On 10 March 2019, Guinea-Bissau held legislative elections to choose the nation's deputies. These elections are of great importance because the political party that receives the most votes will form the government for the next four years. It should also be noted that since its independance, Guinea Bissau has gone through a total of sixteen coup attempts by the army and has never known a single peaceful transition of power. This time though, things went differently.
The elections took place in a context marked by tensions and mistrust among the country's main political actors. The voter registration process got ample media attention and came under fire from a number of critics due to problems encountered in polling stations, mostly with voter cards, but also regarding the selective nature of registration processes in certain zones, issues related to the centralization of data collection, the lack of civic education campaigns and insufficient electoral kits.
However, forums for concertation were set up under the initiative of the government with civil society organizations (CSOs) and political parties representatives. The forums were held in the capital Bissau every week following the official announcement of the date for election day. These spaces for dialogue held in the ad hoc government cabinet allowed the aforementioned stakeholders to closely follow the electoral process and give their opinion on its progress. By providing stakeholders with the opportunity to voice their concerns and make suggestions on how to correct flaws identified during the electoral process, forum participants felt that the transparency of the process was greatly improved, which in turn contributed to reducing animosities and tensions between representatives from different political parties.
It is important to note the crucial mediating role CSOs and the government – with the support of partners and the sponsorship of the republic's institutions – played together by drawing up the Electoral Code of Conduct and the Stability Pact, two key reference documents signed by all competing parties running for election to call upon parties to take their civil responsibility and to refrain from actions that might cause a rise in pre- and post-election tension or political instability.
The adoption of these documents, together with the civility demonstrated by Guinean citizens, contributed to an election marked by a climate of peace and social tranquillity, notwithstanding concerns raised by pundits throughout the electoral campaign about the risk of social division and the worsening of socio-political instability.
By providing stakeholders with the opportunity to voice their concerns and make suggestions on how to correct flaws identified during the electoral process, forum participants felt that the transparency of the process was greatly improved, which in turn contributed to reducing animosities and tensions between representatives from different political parties.
Voz di Paz is the CSPPS focal point organisation in Guinea Bissau and was involved in the concertation process through its participation within the Group of Civil Society Organisations for Elections (GOSCE) and the West Africa Network for Peace (WANEP). Through these organizations, Voz di Paz members were actively involved in the election process' various accompanying stages, before, during and after the voting. Voz di Paz was present in different bodies of the electoral process' Casa de Monitorização (monitoring house), in the field, contributed to data input and to the work of the policy makers' chamber.
The election results were in essence an expression of the popular will and were accepted by the different political and social actors, in addition to being supported by the teams of international observers deployed on the ground.
However, Voz di Paz and other national CSOs shared with the government a set of recommendations for the next elections, which include the timely preparation of the whole process so that all citizens with electoral capacity can register and vote, create an official review body or mechanism to take into account complaints and concerns with a view to improve the process during the entire electoral phase, and finally improve civic education campaigns so that the population can next time participate in a more qualitative way.
The fact that no single political party managed to secure a majority of seats following the election results (the largest party obtained 47 seats out of 102) established a new dynamic in the country to which the parties need to adjust themselves. Particular attention ought to be given to the way political parties will respond to this new order, which is a direct result of a crisis which started during the previous legislature. Indeed, just as this new order may instil a positive spirit of collaboration between the political parties of Guinea Bissau, it might also create governance challenges and antagozine deputies with their constituencies if they were to choose power politics over addressing local and national grievances.

"Thank you for our beautiful door. We originally opted for a cheaper vendor that was sourced from China. After waiting over 6 months for the door we learned the company went under and would not complete the door. Thankfully we found Clark Hall Iron Doors. Not only did you stick by your 12 week delivery date, but the quality is far superior. We couldn't be more pleased. I will definitely recommend you over any other wrought iron vendor."
Our new doors were installed today and we are thrilled with them! They are the perfect compliment to our home.
The installation crew was wonderful! They were punctual and did the work in less time than we expected, but more importantly they are true craftsmen and did excellent, high quality work.
We couldn't be happier with our new Clark Hall doors! Many thanks to you and your team!
Daryl and I are thrilled with the new front door! It stunning! Thank you for your help in choosing the right one for our home.

Dit in groepsverband levende dier heeft een geelbruine vacht met lichtgepunte haren, een brede kop met een korte snuit en kleine behaarde oren. De lichaamslengte bedraagt 34 tot 50 cm, de staartlengte 13 tot 22 cm en het gewicht 1,5 tot 5 kg.

Leefwijze
Dit dier past zich uitstekend aan aan zijn omgeving. Hij gaat 's morgens en in de namiddag op voedselzoektocht. Zijn voedsel bestaat uit grassen, bloemen, kruiden en zaden. Na zijn terugkomst gaat hij zijn vacht oppoetsen, samen met meestal één mannetje en meerdere vrouwtjes. Als het koude seizoen begint, vervalt het in een bijna 8 maanden durende winterslaap.

Verspreiding
Deze soort komt voor in uiteenlopende habitats, zoals in bergachtige streken met gematigde bossen en open habitats van Zuidwest-Canada en de westelijke VS.
