FRC East accepts $5 million gift from state
GateHouse Media staff
Fleet Readiness Center East's Commanding Officer Col. Clarence T. Harper III, on behalf of the U.S. Navy, accepted a gift of $5 million from the state of North Carolina to support F-35 Lightning II related infrastructure at FRC East located at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C. today.
During the ceremony at the North Carolina Executive Mansion in Raleigh, Governor Roy Cooper discussed how this was an important investment for the state.
"North Carolina is the most friendly military state in the country," said Cooper. "We depend on these men and women to keep our country safe and to preserve our freedom."
"So, we are glad that we have such strong military installations in our state," he said. "But, we are also grateful for the jobs and the economic development that comes with it."
FRC East is the lead site for depot-level maintenance on the F-35B (short takeoff-vertical landing), but also performs work on F-35A (conventional takeoff and landing) and F-35C (carrier) variants. The depot has a workforce of more than 4,000 civilian, military personnel and contractors, making it the states' largest industrial employer in Eastern North Carolina.

The Cryptocurrencies are very popular nowadays, and everyone wants to know more about them. Since the scope of Cryptocurrency and its investments have to increase a few days back, most of the people have a confusion related to its terms and products. If you want to know more about Cryptocurrency, don't worry we will guide you through it.
First of all, you need to know the definition of Cryptocurrency; the Cryptocurrency is a virtual and digital currency which is secured and encrypted by the cryptography. The cryptography is known as the technique of encryption which secures it as well as verifies the transaction which is transfer. That is why the Bitcoin is recognized and represents the decentralized cryptocurrency. It is organizing and works with the public ledger and validates as well as records all the transactions, this is known as Blockchain.
There are many Cryptocurrencies which exists and consider other than the Bitcoin. But the primary importance of the Bitcoin is its digital realm which has achieves an essential milestone due to its decentralizing nature and distribution. Therefore the Bitcoin has played a crucial role in the diversity of Cryptocurrency ecosystem and expand other coins and tokens which are also regarded as Cryptocurrency but not all of this fall in the currency category.
It is also essential to know that all the coins and tokens are considered as the Cryptocurrency even not all of the coins do not function as the medium of exchange or the currency.
It is also essential to understand what is currency; the term currency represents anything which stores the value, used as a medium of exchange as well as has any unit if the account in which a trisection is made. All of these features and characteristics can be seen in the Bitcoin that is why it is most commonly considered as the Cryptocurrency. The bitcoins also gives a boost acknowledgment to the Cryptocurrency since it is created. That is why the coins made after the bitcoins are even considered as the Cryptocurrency, but not all of them have complete features and characteristics of actual Currency.
The Altcoins or Alternative Cryptocurrency Coins or pure Coin is also use as interchangeable. The coins are used as the alternative of the Bitcoin as well as the majority of the Altcoins are used as the variant of the bitcoin too called fork. These coins are building with bitcoin open source and protocol which change the codes underlying it. That is why you will get a new coin with entirely new and different features. Also, you can know more about the forks and its types such as hard forks and soft forks.
Some of the Altcoins are not a derivative of the open source Bitcoin protocol, and it has created by its protocol and Blockchain which is supported by the native currency. Some of the examples of these coins are the Ripple, Omni, Nxt, Waves, Counterparty and Ethereum etc.
The tokens represent any assets or utility in particular which resides on any other Blockchain. The Token represents the assets which are traceable and have different characteristics like the fungibles. Its value can be present by the commodities, other Cryptocurrency as well as loyalty points.
The creation and making of the token are pretty simple and straightforward as it doesn't require any modification in codes from the particular protocol source or making a blockchain from the start. For creating a token, you have to follow a fix and standard template which is provided by the blockchain which allows you to make your token, some of the examples are Ethereum or Waves.
There is an entire technology which works on the creation of token by yourself which includes smart contacts self-executing computer codes which don't require any third company or party to operate.
The tokens are distributed after the creation to the public through the ICO was also known as the Initial Coin Offering that means the crowdfunding which is done through releasing of token or new Cryptocurrency which will fund the development of the project. It is similar to the IPO which is an Initial Public Offering for bonds and stocks.
The significant difference between the Token and Altcoin is the structure of both. The primary feature which differentiates between them is the Altcoin have its own and separate blockchain, and it is distinct currency as well. While the tokens are operated from the top blockchain which facilitates its creating. People can create their tokens while Altcoins needs specific codlings to be administered. Tokens represent the assets while Cryptocurrency has a virtual form of currency. The tokens don't need any third party for its creation while the Cryptocurrency need it such as Bitcoins requires a complete process to create and transaction as well.

While members of the public may have access to certain information, others are confidential and protected by the Data Protection Act 2018.
This was set up as a way to protect the confidentiality of the personal information your organisation collects. Together with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), they form the basis for how you'll collect, process and store confidential information.
In this piece, we'll explore the current legislation and highlight the seven guiding principles of data protection. There's also a template as guidance for creating your policy.
What is data protection?
It's the system in place that aims to safeguard personal information from compromise. Be it through corruption, theft or loss.
As an employer, you have a legal obligation of transparency when it comes to how you'll process, use and store the information you collect.
It's important to ensure the workforce operates in a way that complies to these laws.
What is the Data Protection Act?
In May 2018, the government enacted an update to the Data Protection Act 1998 to control how business and government institutions use personal information and to include wording related to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
According to the Data Protection Act 2018, your employees have the right to know:
What data you hold about them.
How you use the information.
Employees also have a right to:
Update incorrect date.
Have their data removed.
Restrict or stop the processing of data.
Object to how you use their data.
Obtain and re-use their data for a different purpose
If you receive a request regarding personal information, you'll have one month to provide access to this information.
When addressing complicated or multiple requests, you can take a further two months to provide it.
There are also instances when you can withhold information from employees or clients. Examples include when the information relates to:
The prevention, detection or investigation of a crime.
The assessment or collection of taxes
Judicial or ministerial appointments.
In certain circumstances, you're required to complete a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) to help you identify and minimise the risks to data protection during a project. This includes:
Where the type of data processing you carry out is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of others; and
Where you carry out systematic and extensive profiling with significant effects
Where there is large scale use of special categories of data (previously known as sensitive data)
In it, you'll:
Describe the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing.
Assess the necessity, proportionality and compliance measures in place to identify risks.
Identify and assess the risk to individuals.
Explore additional measures and support to mitigate the above risks.
Article five of the GDPR set out seven key principals that lie in the heart of your approach to the processing of personal data.
As opposed to providing hard and fast rules relating to GDPR, these principles serve as an embodiment of the general spirit of the legislation that you base the general data protection on. Principles include:
Purpose limitation.
Data minimisation.
Accuracy.
Storage limitation.
Integrity and confidentiality (security).
Accountability.
Data protection breach examples
You'll need to recognise cases relating to the breach of the regulations in place to protect data.
Examples of data protection breaches in the workplace include:
Loss or theft of physical notes, computers, mobile devices or USB drives.
Unauthorised individuals gaining access to the company's computer, email account or computer network.
A break-in where individuals gain access to personnel information in unlocked storage.
An employee copying contact lists for their personal use.
Data protection policy template
There's a free sample data protection policy you can refer to when producing your policy.
This sample provides you with information relating to the data protection principles, procures and disclosures as well as your commitment to data protection within all aspects of your business.
If you have any further questions relating to data protection or GDPR, speak to a Croner expert on 0808 145 3380.

Do you know electrolytes are important (even if you don't fully understand why) but feel hesitant to consume the artificial drinks famous for replenishing them? You're onto something.
It's true: electrolytes matter. They regulate muscle and nerve function, hydration, blood pressure and your body's pH levels. Deficiencies or imbalances in electrolytes—which include calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, hydrogen phosphate, bicarbonate and chloride—can cause everything from fatigue and muscle cramping to irregular heartbeat and seizures. When we sweat, we lose electrolytes; so it's important to replace them.
It's also true that popular sports drinks like Gatorade and Powerade, which do contain electrolytes, are full of artificial ingredients and refined sugar. Fortunately, there are ways to get the electrolytes you need without resorting to these processed products.
Sodium is one of the electrolytes that we're quickest to lose through sweat. Luckily, ingesting salt is a quick and easy way to replace what we lose. Salt also contains the electrolytes magnesium, calcium and potassium; so it's good for more than just sodium replenishment. Go for sea salt over table salt because it's less processed. Himalayan and Celtic sea salts are widely available in most grocery stores. Just put a pinch in your water and drink. It's that easy.
Packed with nutrients and low in sugar, coconut water is a great way to rehydrate and replenish electrolytes, especially potassium. There are a lot of coconut waters on the market. Look for one with minimal ingredients, especially anything that looks artificial. Harmless Harvest uses only organic coconuts and is never cooked or boiled. Their minimal processing causes some of their coconut waters to turn pink when the antioxidants are exposed to light—it's still totally safe to drink. If you have access to it, completely unprocessed coconut water, directly from the coconut, is always best!
Magnesium is one of the most important electrolytes to keep replenished, since being magnesium deficient can cause insomnia, anxiety, muscle cramping, constipation and other problems. Natural Calm is a drinkable magnesium supplement that contains highly absorbable, water-soluble magnesium. Drinking a glass every night before bed is a great way to keep your magnesium levels on track. You can up the dose in hot weather or if you're exercising a lot.
Lemons are the queen of citrus when it comes to electrolytes. They're a good source of potassium, calcium and magnesium. Add that to their ability to detoxify the liver, balance pH levels and boost the immune system with vitamin C, and lemons are officially a solid addition to any drink. Squeeze a whole lemon into warm or cold water for a sour jolt of electrolytes.
No list is complete without a reminder to eat more green vegetables—and electrolyte replenishment is no exception! Leafy greens such as kale, swiss chard, beet greens, bok choy and spinach are packed with electrolytes. They are especially rich in magnesium, calcium and potassium. Celery, broccoli and avocado are good sources as well. You can add an electrolyte punch to any meal by tossing in something green.

Victory over Japan Day, known as VJ Day, is to be remembered this week, 75 years after Japan's surrender which effectively ended World War II
To mark the day, we've been delving into our archives to resurface fascinating interviews with veterans who served in the Far East during the Second World War.
In 2015, Forces TV spoke to former aircraftman Robert Boocock, who was captured and held prisoner by the Japanese in 1942, before being transported to work in a coal mine in Japan.

We've launched our first Sustainability Bond – and it focuses on emerging markets
The move will help bring capital to where it matters most, combat climate change and increase access to finance for entrepreneurs
With countries across the world grappling with how to fund important issues such as climate change and financial inclusion, the need for private capital to play its role has never been more important.
Yet despite the successes of the burgeoning sustainable bond market, beyond China, only a very small percentage of green and social bonds have been raised to finance emerging markets.
That's why today we've issued our first Sustainability Bond focused on emerging markets – covering least, low and lower-middle income countries in Asia and Africa.
Our first Sustainability Bond – the facts and figures
Proceeds from the bond will allow us to finance more projects aligned to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which focus on addressing global challenges such as poverty, inequality and prosperity. For example, the funds could finance clean energy projects such as wind turbines and solar panels, as well as providing smaller business lending and microfinance loans, supporting employment and growth across emerging markets.
Helping the investment gap
"As a bank that focuses on emerging markets, we're in a unique position to bring capital to the places where it matters most. It is emerging markets' pathway to a low carbon future that will have a major impact on the world's ability to meet the Paris Agreement's goal of keeping global warming below 2 degrees.
Our Sustainability Bond could finance renewable energy such as wind farms
"We see growing investor interest to finance sustainable development in Asia and Africa, but this is often hampered by elevated risk perception and a lack of investable opportunities. Investing in a sustainability bond issued by Standard Chartered gives investors access to emerging market sustainable finance with the comfort of investing in a well governed UK regulated Bank." said Daniel Hanna, our Global Head of Sustainable Finance.
The need to channel capital to emerging markets is becoming increasingly important given they face a USD2.5tn annual investment gap in meeting the SDGs. Whilst 90 per cent of SDG financing needs are covered in developed countries, only 60 per cent of the investment needs are addressed in emerging and developing regions, and as low as 10 per cent in Africa.
The latest sustainable finance development
The Sustainability Bond was developed under the Group's Sustainability Bond Framework which was also formally launched today. This gives Standard Chartered the potential to issue further Green, Social or Sustainability bonds.
"We intend for this to be the first step in a programme of Green, Social and Sustainability bond issuance, to support our Sustainable Finance strategy and bring capital to where it matters most," said Daniel.
This transaction comes just weeks after we launched the world's first sustainable deposit – a product for corporate clients, the funds from which we'll use to finance projects aligned to the SDGs in emerging markets, such as infrastructure and power.

Maybe there's a few things this drunken and racist fool didn't do, but at any rate, the performance he put on at the Flying J Truck Plaza in Dauphin County, Virginia, won't be soon forgotten by anyone at the plaza where he had his frightening meltdown.
According to two men who witnessed the incident, the fun began when Craig Troccia, 54, pulled into the truck stop. He allegedly bashed in the windshield of his own car and poured a cup of urine inside, say police according to PennLive.
For reasons known only to drunk, stupid, racist idiots everywhere, his next step was to drop his trousers and expose his genitalia to the Black man (who was probably unimpressed) and everyone else unfortunate enough to be in the parking lot when this occurred.
His next step was to pull out a gun and threaten to kill the Black man and everyone else there, Raw Story reports.
Then the racist fool who's a poor excuse for a human being continued to threaten one trooper and members of the trooper's family before being hauled into custody and into a police cruiser.
And even at this point, Troccia refused to stop — police say he continued to threaten the officers and bashed his head and body into every panel in the police cruiser.
Criminal mischief and resisting arrest.
He's currently lodged in the county jail, and his bail has been set at $25,000. Where perhaps this racist dickhead can get off the sauce. For a while anyway.


Clean Water Pools inc was Established in 2006 and is family owned and operated. Jeff and Audrey are the owners and operators of the business and strive to be the #1 most efficient and reliable pool cleaners in all of East County. They have quite the online reputation and outstanding ratings. This married duo will go over and beyond to make sure your pool always looks tip shop shape.
"Jeff is a great person and very professional. My pool looked really bad because I was trying to maintain it myself but it was very hard. Jeff keeps my pool crystal clear and attracting. Before we had him we would never want to go in."
"Love love love Jeff and Audrey!! They are just so awesome to our dogs and of course our pool! Our pool has never been better it's so nice to have a reliable person/couple there every week. If you are looking for mediocre pool service look somewhere else because these guys are awesome!!"
"Jeff and Audrey are amazing let me first start by saying how thankful I am for them coming to my rescue. I was recovering from surgery and no pool service company wanted to come and service my pool! I had black algae really bad. Mind you it was my first time renting a house on my own and my first time maintaining a pool. I had no idea what black algae was and I spent hundreds of dollars trying to rid my pool of this horrid problem. Jeff came out with no question and saved the day. He talked with my landlord and made him understand the seriousness of this issue and he helped me so much!!!....words cannot describe how thankful I am for his service. His wife Audrey is so kind, they are a pleasure to work with even in 100+ degree weather they still helped me I would recommend them to anyone for a pool service!!!!"
"Jeff and Audrey are the best! We had been trying to take care of our pool on our own unsuccessfully since we moved in to our house. It was such a pain! We called them and they came out the very next day. Our pool has never looked better!! It went from grimy green to crystal clear. It's been so easy working with them and they really care about making their clients happy and we definitely are! They are affordable and so so nice! We have two dogs who love when they come because they bring dog treats :) If you're looking for an honest, dependable and efficient pool service, look no further!!"


It was just seven days ago that rapper Lil Wayne left Rikers Island in New York after serving eight months on charges pertaining to gun possession. In the time since he became a free man, Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. has spent time at home, watched the New Orleans Hornets play basketball, went to Las Vegas to surprise fellow Young Money superstar Drake on stage and join him for a rendition of "Miss Me," and Wayne has spent time with his four children.
However, soon Wayne may be spending time with his five children. Lil Wayne, who is the proud father of four children whom he had with four women, is being told it is now five children with five women.
When the rapper was still behind bars in Rikers Island, a Missouri woman sued Wayne saying that he is the father of her child born in 2002.
Now a DNA test has been ordered to determine is Lil Wayne is in fact the father of the now eight-year-old child. The order was requested by the grandmother of the child. The name of the mother of the child is not listed in the court papers.
Wayne was initially going to do the DNA test on September 10th, but because he was in prison, the test was postponed. Wayne is currently scheduled to undergo the procedure on December 9th.
Positive news for Wayne fans is that the rapper spent fifteen hours in the recording studio on Tuesday. Recording from the Hit Factory in Miami, Wayne recorded his first verse since leaving jail, as reported by Mack Maine of Young Money.
Reports from DJ Scoob Doo on his Twitter page indicate that Wayne recorded multiple songs during the session.
With producers eager to work with Wayne and with Wayne and Young Money excited to return to how things were one year ago, music fans all over the world can start saving up as mixtapes and albums including Tha Carter IV are set to hit shelves very soon.


A bus service between Nepal's capital Kathmandu and Bodhgaya in Bihar has started.
The first ever Bus Service between Nepal and Bihar was flagged off by the Nepal's Minister for Physical Infrastructure and Transportation Raghubir Mahaseth and Indian Ambassador Manjeev Singh Puri from Kathmandu this evening.
The 45 seater air conditioned delux bus will complete 660 KM journey between Kathmandu and Bodhgaya in 16 hours.
The bus will leave Kathmandu daily at 7 PM and reach Bodhgaya next day at around 11 AM. The bus fare would be Rs. 1,250.
During Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Nepal visit in 2014 a Motor Vehicle Agreement for Passenger Traffic was signed to facilitate seamless and hassle-free movement of people of both countries, further enhancing people to people contact and promoting tourism.
The agreement envisages regular bus services between the two countries as per agreed routes, trips and time-table.
The Kathmandu-Bodhgaya is the 5th bus service from Nepal side. The bus services from Kathmandu to Delhi and Varanasi, Mahendranagar to Delhi and Pokhara to Delhi had already been commenced.
The 6th service between Janakpur and Patna is scheduled to start from Sunday.

Q: Native SQL(written in xml) result set mapping to POJO(annotation based) I'm working on a Spring MVC legacy project and currently, we are upgrading the spring(2) and hibernate(2) to latest version. Previously in the project there are sql-query and entity mappings are done in the XML files and we are upgrading the entity mapping from XML to annotation based. The problem is occurring for the entity mappings that are done on the basis of the result set of a query. I want to keep the query in the XML files only(as these are very very big queries performing joins on 4-5 tables) and just change the entity mapping. Previously the entity mapping is done like this
<class name="ClassName" table="x" mutable="false">
    <id name="id" column="id_col">
        <generator class="assigned" />
    </id>
        <property name="linkId"  ....

</class>

How will I annotate table='x' in the annotation based mapping?
P.S table="x" is not an example it is written in that way only in XML mapping and there is no table named x in DB

A: you can use like this
@Entity
@Table(name = "X")
public class ClassName {
}

In native Query in xml
<sql-query name="findQuery">
   <return alias="ClassName" class="ClassName"/>
   select * from x
</sql-query>

Unlike the echo servers of Tomayko and Kaplan-Moss, this one doesn't use fork (yet). We will add forking to the server in a follow-up post. Hopefully this will make it easier for less experienced UNIX programmers (like me) to get started with.
scsh does its part to make this easy by providing a high-level Scheme procedure, BIND-LISTEN-ACCEPT-LOOP, which handles this stuff for you, in addition to some nifty error handling and other bookkeeping chores. But we're going to ignore that for now and write everything by hand to see how it's done.
You should be able to enter all of the code in the next section directly in the scsh top-level. You don't need to open any additional packages; this is just plain old scsh.
The first thing you'll notice is that it's pretty sequential and quite simple really. We just go through the socket opening dance we described earlier: open, configure, bind, listen, and accept.
In our LET*-binding we create some convenient locally bound names for the socket structure's input and output ports, and then we read a line from the socket's input port.
Since this is echo server, we just write the same data back out with FORMAT. We call FORCE-OUTPUT to flush output to the terminal immediately. Otherwise Scheme will wait for the operating system's output buffer to fill before writing out, and it will appear to the user that nothing is happening.
Hopefully that was enough to get you started playing with sockets in scsh. I'll write a followup post where we talk about the UNIX forking process model and update this example to make it a "preforking" server.

"The EU doesn't stop at the water's edge": EU-India and the Indo-Pacific
John-Joseph Wilkins | 28 April 2021
This paper examines ways to enhance security cooperation between the European Union and India, with a focus on counter-piracy and cooperation through ASEAN. This piece is the revised version of the original paper produced in March 2021 for the EU India think tanks twinning initiative 2020-22. The original paper can be found here.
The EU is heavily dependent on maritime shipping: 90 percent of its external and 40 percent of internal trade is seaborne. For its part, India is also completely reliant on sea lines of communication (SLOC), with some 90 percent of trade by volume and 70 percent by value passing through the maritime space. The stability and security of the so-called Indo-Pacific are therefore of vital importance and both have sought to reinforce a common vision of regional and global maritime challenges by maintaining freedom of navigation and sea lines of communication through inclusive and rules-based global governance. What also unites these (sometimes awkward) partners are concerns over China, which has been flexing its economic and military muscles across the Indo-Pacific in recent years.
After years of being viewed solely or primarily as an economic power, it is increasingly accepted in Indian policy circles that the EU is indeed a security actor in its own right. This is particularly the case vis-à-vis maritime security issues: from the Mediterranean to the Gulf of Aden, and recently with the launch of the Coordinated Maritime Presence concept in the Gulf of Guinea, the Union has steadily strengthened its footprint and role as a global security provider in its maritime areas of interest. As Indian Ambassador to the EU, Santosh Jha, explained recently: "The relationship between the EU and India cannot just stand on one leg. It will be stronger if it stands on both legs: economic and geopolitical." Yet despite significant (relative) progress in bilateral relations in recent years and repeated pledges that the EU-India relationship is indeed 'strategic', systematic security cooperation has to date been somewhat underwhelming.
EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, noted in his personal blog last year that: 'We live in a permanent 'battle of narratives' about the issues that determine our future. We have to understand these different positions if we want to look for a common ground.' This paper proposes that combatting piracy in the broader Indo-Pacific could be an avenue for finding this 'common ground' and establishing the EU as a credible security player in the region. Safety at sea issues, search and rescue operations, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief (HADR), safety at life at sea initiatives and efforts to combat illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing, as well as sustainable economic growth linked to the blue economy, cannot be effective if international rules are not adhered to. Furthermore, enhanced EU-India naval and maritime cooperation should be part of a broader commitment to multilateralism; one that will not simply aim to 'contain' China but bolster the agency of all relevant parties in the Indo-Pacific.
The shared importance of maritime security
Indeed, the EU has made strides in MARSEC over the last year: in June 2020, it launched CRIMARIO II, building on previous (and now extended) initiatives based in the Western Indian Ocean to secure sea lines of communication in Southeast Asia. As part of a broader investment in its Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP), the EU has also developed specific MARSEC capabilities. For India, the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (or 'Quad') is a useful tool for New Delhi to bolster its defence ties, showcase its military prowess and improve its growing (if sometimes erratic) relationship with the United States. While the Quad has seen a renewed commitment from its members and large-scale drills (most recently during India's yearly Malabar naval exercises in November 2020), it should be viewed as a 'compact bloc, rather than a sprawling multilateral organisation', the latter being the environment within which the EU is often more comfortable operating. Indeed, 'if the Indo-Pacific acquires an ambiguous narrative, or there are hints of a defence alliance, […], caution from the EU […] is likely expected.' Thus, as an outside actor, the EU is best placed to cooperate with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), while maintaining its established collaboration with Indian Ocean Rim Association (IORA) and expanding its ties with India. ASEAN nations also now constituteone of India's top foreign policy priorities; both the Act East and Neighbourhood First policies pursued by the Indian government under Prime Minister Modi are linked to ASEAN or its member states.
In 1945, Indian diplomat KM Panikkar popularised the adage 'whoever controls the Indian Ocean has India at its mercy'. This preoccupation with maritime freedom has continued to this day, with the Indian Chief of Defence Staff, General Bipin Rawat, claiming recently that the Quad should be used to ensure Freedom of Navigation Operations in the Indian Ocean and beyond. While the much-touted Chinese 'String of Pearls' encircling India is not quite as strategic as some had feared, there is indeed cause for concern in allowing a non-democratic state to potentially dominate sea lines of communication, particularly given its disregard for the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Anti-piracy provides common ground for cooperation with India (and ASEAN) without overtly challenging Beijing. Piracy still represents a significant threat and a total of 97 incidents were reported in Asia in 2020: an increase of 17 percent compared to 2019. The phenomenon is also likely to be exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic whereby piracy offers a potentially lucrative source of income for those who may suffer as a result of the global economic downturn and 'ASEAN states and concerned stakeholders in the region must face the uncomfortable fact that increased crime in South-East Asian seas is inevitable.' Counter-piracy may also be a way of circumventing India's traditional reluctance to bind itself to formal alliances and respect its desire for strategic autonomy.
Ultimately, beyond shared values (though undeniably important), it is shared hard interests which will eventually underpin any common approach between the EU and India.
Suggested policy recommendations for the EU:
Use counter-piracy as a way into the region as a security provider. Building on past successes (and the momentum generated by the CMP programme), the Union has a wealth of experience, as well as the capacity to fully engage in the field. The EU should therefore aim to join the Regional Cooperation Agreement on Combatting Piracy and Armed Robbery against Ships in Asia (ReCAAP). The multilateral agreement brings together the Quad, ASEAN nations, as well as EU Member States such as the Netherlands and Denmark (Germany is set to join). It also presents a more flexible format for interested EU Member States which lack blue water capabilities. It provides a forum to engage with India (a founding member) on security matters and to be active in the region without alienating China (which is also a member). There is also precedent of agreements vis-à-vis international organisations: the Information Sharing Center of ReCAAP has signed agreements with the likes of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), for example, so why not the EU?
Develop a coherent strategic communications plan for the Indo-Pacific. The EU sometimes suffers from an asymmetry of perspectives, despite a clear common cause. Strategic communication efforts are therefore required to communicate the EU effectively to international partners. In particular, maritime domain awareness works particularly well for the EU. The lack of an Indo-Pacific strategy has hitherto sent the wrong signal about how important the region is, though that is to soon be rectified as the Union is due to release one this year. The EU needs to reflect on what narrative to build – and sustain – so as to win over sceptics in the region. This requires developing strategic communications toolkits for regional countries which also include non-traditional security matters so as to encourage Indo-Pacific nations to engage with the EU as a whole rather than individual Member States alone.
Shelve any plans to involve itself in the Quad – at least for the time being. Bearing in mind that the Quad is a military alliance principally concerned with national navies, the EU – for all its positive ambition – lacks the cohesion, capabilities and interest to join such a body. This will also require some delicate balancing on the European side: it must actively engage with the four partners to avoid accusations of representing a new Non-Aligned Movement (NAM). At the same time, the EU should also avoid steps that may be perceived as anti-China manoeuvres. Even within the Quad itself, alliance building is not without controversy, and joining a pre-existing defence initiative is not necessarily in Europe's interest nor its traditional modus operandi. Instead, and in line with its commitment to multilateral solutions, the EU should seek out broader fora.
Engage on security with ASEAN – while not neglecting other bodies.The EU's increasingly stronger ties with ASEAN naturally lend themselves to build further security ties. ASEAN-led processes and regional mechanisms hold promise.The ASEAN Defence Ministers' Meeting Plus (ADMM+) Expert Working Groups (particularly those pertaining to military medicine) also provide opportunities for further engagement, including with India. Accordingly, the EU should make use of the 2021 French presidency of the Indian Ocean Commission to increase its visibility, while continuing its attempt to achieve IORA observer status to tackle broader issues.
Suggested policy recommendations for India:
Look beyond its immediate neighbourhood and expand EU-related diplomatic corps. A permanent post to liaise with the EU Military Committee could be a possibility while more broadly, a dedicated Ambassador to the EU (rather than the current setup of one post to cover the mission to the EU, as well as the nations of Belgium and Luxembourg) could help develop deeper ties and focus. Indian policymakers could also closely monitor the interests of the rotating Presidency of the EU Council: for instance, the official agenda of the current Portuguese Presidency of the Council of the EU (running until the end of June 2021) reveals a specific interest in the maritime domain and the outermost regions of the Union, including those in the Indo-Pacific.

Blog Blue Zone Diet - Eat Like the Healthiest People on Earth
Blue Zone Diet - Eat Like the Healthiest People on Earth
Last updated: April 4th, 2019
Published: December 18th, 2018
Blue Zone diet is plant-based
Let us begin with what defines a "Blue Zone" before we delve into the basic principles of a Blue Zone diet. Five regions qualify as Blue Zones: Ikaria, Okinawa, Barbagia, Loma Linda, and the Nicoya Peninsula. Spread out across the globe, they represent areas where the population live longer, have fewer health problems, and stay active well into their 80s. In essence, these areas feature some of the healthiest communities in the world. Let's face it, there are not many diets worldwide that can compete with that type of statement.
The good news is, you don't have to live in these areas to mimic their approach to healthy living. You do, however, need to follow a few fundamental principles based on how people in Blue Zones eat. We cannot promise the Mediterranean sun of Barbagia, Sardinia, but we can break the Blue Zone diet into ten easy steps.
1. Eat fish, but not as much as you think
Granted, most of the Blue Zone locations are on or near the coast. However, fish does not feature in local diet as much as you might think. In the majority of regions, fish is consumed up to three times a week, and of those three times, the majority are small, middle of the food chain fish. Cod, anchovies, or sardines are the most popular choices, mainly because they are both easy to digest and better for the ecosystem.
2. Save the meat for special occasions
Chicken, beef, and pork are primarily eaten as part of a special occasion. In addition, when they are consumed, they are a side to a dish, rather than the main course. Aim to eat meat no more than five times a month.
3. Reduce the number of eggs consumed
You do not have to worry about removing the yolk, instead, consuming the whole egg is perfectly fine. There is not anything inherently wrong with eating eggs, but across the five regions, eggs are eaten on occasion rather than as a rule. Try to reduce your egg intake to less than three a week.
4. Less dairy is better
Being lactose-intolerant is becoming increasingly common. While the argument around our body's natural ability to break down lactose rages on, people living in Blue Zones typically avoid cow's milk. Instead, they choose to use goat or sheep's milk.
5. Sugar is a no-no
Removing sugar will come as no surprise. Added sugar has, unfortunately, become a staple part of ready-made meals, sauces, soft drinks, even bread. Excess artificial sugar, not the sugars naturally occurring in fruits, has been linked to many damaging conditions. Soft drinks are the main culprit in this category and should be eradicated from our diets. If you do want to indulge, again, save the sugary treats for a special occasion.
6. If you want to snack, try nuts
No matter what you do, there will come times throughout the day when you want a snack between meals. Rather than going without, reach for a few handfuls of mixed nuts. For best results, try a mix that includes almonds, brazil nuts, walnuts, cashews, and peanuts. Individually, they bring their own benefits, but together they are packed with omega-3, protein, and vitamin E.
7. Swap white bread for sourdough
We mentioned bread earlier. The majority of processed bread is packed full of sugar and bleached white flour. Both provide a short burst of energy and cause spikes in your insulin level. Swap white bread for traditional sourdough and you will be stunned by the difference. Sourdough bread is easy to digest and slower to break down because of the whole grains. The result is more energy throughout the day.
8. Beans and pulses should be eaten every day
White, black, soybeans, lentils, pulses—they all have something in common. They are all consumed daily in Blue Zone areas. Packed full of protein and slow-release carbohydrates, beans are considered by many to be a superfood. Throw in the healthy source of fibre they provide, and it is easy to see why. Focus on adding at least half a cup a day to your meals.
9. When in doubt, focus on whole foods, not processed meals
What do we mean when we say whole foods? Essentially, it is a portion of food that is made from one ingredient, either in raw, ground, or cooked form. Eating whole fruit and veg without smothering it in a processed sauce is an excellent example of focussing on whole foods. If the meal you are looking at has added sweeteners, preservatives, or artificial ingredients, it isn't whole.
10. Water, water, water
Time and time again, it is recommended that water be our primary source of liquid intake. We are, after all, about 60% water, so it stands to reason we should keep our hydration levels topped up. Water can be a touch dull, so don't panic, cups of tea and coffee also featured in Blue Zone areas.
If you do drink coffee, try to avoid adding sugar to it, back to point five. If tea is your preferred option, try swapping regular tea bags for green tea. Finally, if you have had a tough day at the office, there is good news. Red wine is also a crucial part of Blue Zone diets. All things in moderation though; target no more than 1–3 small glasses of red wine a day.
You have probably noticed a recurring theme throughout the Blue Zone diet. It is mostly plant-based, focussing on sources of food that are local and readily available. While meat does feature, it is an exception rather than a rule. All Blue Zone areas focus on a traditional approach to eating—making the most of foods and plants when they are in season, and switching to what is available as the conditions change.
Although this kind of approach to eating may seem strange, especially in a world overloaded with convenience meals and fast food outlets, the idea of eating only what was available is something our prehistoric ancestors did very well.
Hemp Seed Oil And The Longevity Phenomenon In Bama Village
Stone Age diets were most likely plant-based
When we think, talk, or imagine our Stone Age ancestors, more often than not, connotations of them being fierce hunters come to mind. On the contrary, primitive men and women were more than likely eating far more plants and grains than they were meat. The reason is simple; hunting for sources of meat is significantly more difficult than foraging for berries and seeds. Add in the complexity of the environment, with factors including weather, season, and location, and suddenly a predominantly meat-based diet seems less and less likely.
A Stone Age diet, or as it is more commonly known, the paleo diet, would have featured meat, but not in the vast quantities we often think. It is true, however, that as our hunter-gatherer instincts developed, we became better at harvesting meat. Where available, prehistoric us would always take the opportunity to consume it over berries, ground grain, or seeds. The theory is that an increase in calories provided by meat contributed to the development of larger brains. Our mind craves meat, but our body needs the balance of plant-based foods for nutrients, vitamins, and energy.
When you consider that from a physiological standpoint our brains have developed significantly, our physical attributes are mostly unchanged. Our minds are modern, but our bodies are paleo. This represents a considerable problem. Our genes tell our body we crave the natural sustenance available from good old mother nature. Instead, we bombard it with highly processed foods. Our bodies are being forced to adapt to our modern lifestyle and the food intake it provides. The result is the potential development of various intolerances and several digestive conditions.
The paleo diet appears less about eating any one food over another. Instead, it is about eating what is available. Local, non-processed food that is in season will have a wealth of natural benefits. In an overwhelming number of scenarios, this would have resulted in a largely plant-based diet. But wait. Doesn't that sound remarkably similar to another type of diet?
Blue Zone diet might be the "real" paleo diet for the modern age
Looking at the concept of both the Blue Zone diet and the paleo diet, it is impossible not to observe some striking similarities. Could the Blue Zone diet be a natural evolution of the paleo diet? It certainly seems likely.
The core principle of both focus on one fundamental aspect; our bodies have evolved to require a balanced range of foods. If you are ever in doubt about how to eat healthily, it looks like the answer has been right in front of us the whole time (nearly five million years). Eat what is—and was—locally available to you, while following the moderation guidelines of the Blue Zone diet. The result is the potential for a long, healthy, more active life, and who doesn't want that?

http://civic-forum.eu/english/european-citizenship-awards-its-your-time-to-play-online-votes-are-openAfter an intense debate and more than 30 applications received, the jury members of the European Citizenship Awards selected four nominees in each of the three categories.
The European Citizenship Awards 2018 is a joint initiative between the European Civic Forum and Volonteurope, two European networks which promote active citizenship and recognition of the importance of social justice to the cohesion of communities across Europe. The Awards celebrate the democratic and civic engagement of individuals, organisations, citizens' groups and social enterprises. They recognise innovative initiatives and contributions which give real substance to European values, create ownership of public space and improve the lives of their communities in terms of democracy, social justice and universal access to rights.
Here are the nominees. It is now your turn to participate and help them win the Award! How? Simply select your favorite initiative, volunteer and social enterprise below and submit your answers!
SWANS INITIATIVE (website) is a volunteer group that organises career and leadership seminars for high potential female university students from immigrant families and Women of Color. Consisting of five women from such backgrounds, it is the first organisation in Germany supporting this important and oftentimes overlooked community. Their goal is to promote a more adequate representation of these highly qualified and dedicated women in the workplace in accordance with their competences and skill sets. German Chancellor Angela Merkel awarded the Initiative a certificate for their accomplishments as Startsocial-scholarship holders.
MESSAGES OF DIVERSITY: BEING OPEN FOR UNKNOWN CULTURES (to the website) Diversity and interculturality is everywhere and is part of our normal life. In order to make this visible, people living in Passau (locals, Germans from other cities, migrants, and refugees) were asked and photographed about their intercultural experiences and relationships, the personal gain associated with them and the openness towards « strangers » in their lives.
FLOARE DE CIRES LTD. (see Facebook page here) In Moldova, young people face difficulties in transition from education to the labor market. When Elena Tamciuc received her first salary at the age of 31 five years ago, she broke down and cried. Elena is today one of nine employees with disabilities, who are working for Floare de cires Ltd − a social enterprise created by Eco-Razeni Association in December 2012 in Razeni. Floare de cires offers an extensive training program empowering women and men to undertake what is often their first "real job" in the catering services.
PROPULSION – LE GARAGE SOLIDAIRE (to the Facebook page) Propulsion is a garage workshop geared towards solidarity and mobility. It is based in Agneaux, Normandy, France. Its particularity is to be both a non profit enterprise and an association, promoting professional and social insertion while offering traditional garage services to everyone, with a special focus on financially fragile public through lower prices. Its employees are long term unemployed and are helped towards achieving their career goal of becoming mechanics.
AMAL LEARNING (to the Facebook page) is a Spanish registered NGO that provides free online one-to-one language classes to refugees and people affected by conflict or fleeing persecution, helping them rebuild their lives. Its innovative approach brings together teachers and students. They are connected and the classes are delivered over the internet. This online community allows the teachers to reach out, connect and give support to refugees from their own homes. Also, teachers and refugees learn about each other cultures, creating a two-way exchange.
ECHO FOR REFUGEES (to the Facebook page)ECHO for Refugees is a mobile library and education center for teenagers and adults that is open to all. It operates in Athens, Greece visiting refugee camps, community centres and locations around the city, loaning books and giving refugees and asylum-seekers access to online courses and language learning materials. ECHO is innovative in the way that it brings communities together – not only different communities of asylum-seekers, migrants and refugees, but Greeks, especially those that have been hard-hit by the major economic struggles.
FOTEINI KALPAKIOTI created the HARTS in 2016 and implemented the initiative voluntarily for women refugees in empowering them through their skills and capabilities in order to support themselves. It is an ongoing program which over 150 women have passed through till now. Foteini also helped launching MATCH, a social inclusion project through sport. MATCH became one of the most effective social inclusion initiatives for youth. Sport and athletics are the tools for active participation of youths by far the best for their social inclusion.
DONALD DERVISHI (see the GoFundMe page) is a 32 year old teacher and school director in the rural mountain area of Southern Albania. Witnessing the horrible material conditions of the school he was sent to, Donald dedicated himself to building an entirely new school for these five children and their teacher. Soon after, together with the teacher, Borsion Spahu, Donald applied for and was accepted onto a national quiz show, « Millionaire », due to their promise to dedicate all earnings to the construction of the school. Not only is his volunteering sustainable for the future, in that he will continue to dedicate his time and build networks around Europe to support his efforts in school reconstruction and rehabilitation, but it has a tremendous impact on Albania today.
COLIN MASON 74, began volunteering with Volunteering Matters' RSVP (Retired and Senior Volunteers Programme) in 1998 after he retired, where he began as an office-based volunteer. With a vast variety of activities covered by the programme, it is essential that those involved have a method of sharing their news, ideas and best practice with others undertaking similar volunteer led activities. He works independently and often remotely at home, devoting hours each month to assembling FOCUS, which combines up to date news and updates from RSVP projects. In 2017 over 8,000 older people volunteered with RSVP, with over 50,000 people benefitting from these projects.

The impact of Khedi Alieva's volunteering activities impact affects many refugee's life, relevant to weak points of the system of refugee integration in Poland.


Juno-nominated Canadian pop star Shawn Hook will headline New Year's Eve celebrations in Brampton next month.
Hook, an electronic pop and rock artist, is best known for his radio hits "Reminding Me" and "Sound of Your Heart" and "Million Ways".
The city announced Friday that Hook will perform along with a bunch of other local musicians. The musical acts were curated with help from local record label SoundDrive Records and will feature the Julian Taylor Band, as well as Brampton-based artists, Raz, Melle Rose and DJ Tam.
DJ Tam will kick off the party in Garden Square at 8 pm, followed by a performance from Melle Rose. The first of two fireworks displays is set for 9 pm for those wanting to ring in the New Year a little earlier in the evening. The live entertainment will continue after the early fireworks with performances from Raz followed by the Julian Taylor Band.
Shawn Hook will take the stage just after 11 pm, leading up to the countdown to the new year and the second fireworks display at midnight.


Faith in all aspects of life is important to Mark Fox, adjunct instructor in communications.
Fox grew up in Winston-Salem and became a Christian at 15 years old, sharing his newfound passion with his friends during lunch breaks at school. He invited them to his Bible study group, which grew from five to 60 members by the end of the year.
"That was my first taste of how God could use me in ministry," Fox said.
He earned a Master of Divinity from Luther Rice College & Seminary and graduated in speech and communications rhetoric from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1979, receiving his master's degree there two years later.
During his graduate studies, Fox met his now wife, who happened to live in the same apartment building. She brought him back on track after he had started drinking frequently and had stopped pursuing a relationship with Christ.
He followed Cindy to her church in Burlington, formerly known as Christ Church, where the pastor serving at the time made a deep impression on Fox. The pastor used illustrations to help people understand the Bible in a similar way that Jesus used parables.
"I've never heard anybody bring the Bible to life like he did," Fox said.
At the time, Fox was selling ads at The Burlington Times-News while studying under the Christ Church pastor, Stephen Crotts. He saw that Fox had an aptitude for teaching and suggested that he start a ministry for young people. In 1983, Fox opened a coffee house called His Place that would host a Christian artist or a speaker every Saturday for children all over the county to attend.
In the three years that followed, Fox traveled around the country with his wife and two groups called New Direction and Damascus Road. He preached in all types of places — from churches to prisons, schools and streets.
"God was really giving me a desire to be a pastor in one place with a group of people that I could love and live with," Fox said.
Antioch Community Church was born in the spring of 1987, and Fox is a pastor there today.
"Five families decided there was a need for a church in the area that would be mission-minded and committed to expository preaching," Fox said.
Expository preaching is the practice of going through full books in the Bible, rather than preaching only on topics.
In 1993, Fox received permission from the Provost at Elon University for his church to meet at Whitley Auditorium every Sunday. Over 500 Elon students visited the church in the nine years it was on campus.
"It was easy for them to just get out of bed and walk over from the dorm," Fox said.
Antioch received its own church building in 2002 on Powerline Road, right off of University Drive.
The main aim of Antioch is to keep families together, a goal that was born from the limited space in Whitley. Programs, such as Sunday school, that divide the family by age were not feasible in tight spaces like Whitley. So everyone attended the main service out of necessity.
However, this turned out to be a healthier environment for the church spiritually.
Apart from expository preaching and families worshiping together, mission trips are another integral part of the Antioch community.
Vic Costello, associate professor of communications, is an elder at Antioch and Fox's good friend. Both went on a mission trip to Colombia in 2013 where they built latrines for a developing island community with no local water supply for a week.
"Now, this is a test," Fox said after being asked to list all seven of his children. His oldest son is Micah, who is 33. Caleb, 31, is his second. Hannah is 29, Luke is 27, Jesse is 25, Judah is 22 and Susanna is 19.
Jesse said he never thought about his family dynamics much until he was separated from them as he grew older and left the house. But looking back, he said he was glad about his situation.
But living in the Fox house also meant growing up in a structured environment. Jesse said he would get up in the morning and have Bible study, be schooled and do chores around the house in the afternoon.
He and his siblings were homeschooled.
Fox once attended a conference that talked about the values behind homeschooling. Although there are academic reasons for homeschooling, Fox's faith was the main reason for the couple to homeschool all seven of their children.
"We wanted them to be taught the values that we believe are important, which come from the Bible," Fox said. "We did not want them to be in an environment where their primary influence would come from their peers or from people we didn't know."
Fox said homeschooled children are sometimes viewed as unsociable, but looking back, he has no regrets choosing this path for his children.
When his students or coworkers ask him for his opinions, Fox does not shy away from his beliefs. Tony Rose, senior business analyst at Elon, has been a longtime friend of Fox.
"Most people that know him wish they could be as consistent in their faith as he and his wife have been," Rose said.
But when at Elon, Fox said he is first an adjunct professor in communications.
Students sometimes ask Fox if they can meet with him after class to continue discussions or listen to his opinions. He gladly invites these students to a cup of coffee at The Oak House or to lunch.

Art and Science Research Residency Program this Fall
This fall, BioClub will offer an art and science research residency program in cooperation with the Finnish Institute in Tokyo and BioArtSociety, an organization that connects the fields of art and science in Finland.
An evaluation conducted in March resulted in the selection of Helsinki-based Christina Stadlbauer and her work "Ceramic Scar Tissue - A Kin Tsugi Experiment." Her proposal brings together traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern biotechnology with an artistic concept, and her work presents the potential to collaborate with traditional craft experts and to leverage the Bioclub network. The artist will conduct research for one month while based in FabCafeMTRL.
Christina Stadlbauer
An artist/researcher based in Helsinki. Christina obtained her PhD in chemistry and since 2008, she has mainly been examining honeybees and their environments along with plant sensing, communication, and ecology, focusing on the connection between art and science. She also runs a Kintsugi work group in Helsinki. She is interested in the complexity of processes and when she creates, she applies herself to the environment, whether that environment is physical or non-physical. She produces tangible objects, public outdoor facilities, temporary interventions and situations. Her works have been displayed in Europe and all around the world.
"Ceramic Scar Tissue - A Kin Tsugi Experiment"
A Kin Tsugi Experiment to Grow Instead of Glue Broken Ceramics
Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese craft technique in which broken ceramics are bonded back together with urushi, a plant-based lacquer paint, and finished with gold or silver. In contrast to other forms of repair that try to hide traces of damage, this approach accentuates the cracks and flaws and redefines them as beauty. This technique developed in the late 16th century and originated from the concept of wabi-sabi, a world view based on the acceptance of natural processes and imperfection. The beauty of not being perfect or permanent can be considered a type of aesthetic.
In "Ceramic Scar Tissue - A Kin Tsugi Experiment," the concept of healing is examined by understanding living organisms as the glue that repairs the damage done to a living system. The research focuses on what kinds of biomaterial, such as biomes, bacteria, and fungi are appropriate and examines the conditions necessary for the growth of this "living glue" by drawing comparisons to the surface of broken ceramic.
The activities of the artist will be shared through events such as talks and workshops and announced through the official website blog.
The Bioartsociety

Quinellas
Path of Progress
By Richard Hartley
PPM's expert Richard Hartley Jnr looks at quinella betting and reveals an ingenious staking plan that will help you come out in front on your Q-bets.
There are some important things to remember when betting on quinellas, and the first is that it's harder than it looks to strike regularly with profit-producing quinellas.
Notice the emphasis I put on the 'profit-producing' aspect of the quinellas. What this means is that you will strike plenty of quinellas, using multiple bets, but not all of them will allow you to make a profit, because the dividends will be too small and will not cover your outlay.
Most punters tend to stick with the favourites in races when they take their quinella bets. But you have to keep in mind that an even money favourite and a horse at 2-1 running Ist/2nd may pay only even money for the quinella. If you cop a dividend above that, consider yourself lucky.
As in other forms of betting, you must strive to attain value in quinella betting. Always look for the horses who are overlays - meaning their true odds are greater than being offered on the tote or the bookmaker.
There are many ideas around about how to calculate quinella dividends. Here's the one that I use, and which is a widely-accepted technique, and is a nice rule of thumb as to what constitutes value. Let's assume you have two horses at 4-1 and 5-1. Using this quick 'n' easy method, you ADD ONE to the 4-1 horse, and then multiply the two figures (that would be 5 x 5 equalling 25).
You are, then, anticipating a return of 25-1 ($12.50 for 50 cents units) for a quinella on two horses at 4-1 and 5-1. Easy, isn't it? Another example: One horse at 8-1 and the second horse at 10-1-9 x 10 equals 90. That's potential odds of 90-1 ($45 for 50 cent units) for the quinella.
Don't take these figures as 'absolute' because they're not. But they are a generally pretty reliable guide for anyone who wants to try to assess what a quinella is likely to pay. I do stress, as well, that it's a simple method of operation. There are more complex mathematical formulae around. Whatever method you use, you can take it for granted that the actual dividend will never exactly equal what you have worked out.
Now, we get onto the most important aspect of this article, and that's the method I am recommending for quinella punters. It's not a method to select horses-you'll have to use other P.P.M. articles to help you in that respect-but one for betting on them.
I have to thank our old friend, The Optimist, for this most interesting approach. He says he believes it's ideal for those punters who like to play quinellas on a fulltime basis, and who are confident they can strike at least one solid quinella in 25 attempts.
The staking plan for this form of betting goes as follows:
1-1-1-1-2-2-2-3-3-3-4-4-5-5-67.
Using 50 cent units, this is a total of 50 units, or $25. If you happened to strike with an early $25 collect, you go right on with the series, because you can't lose! As the plan develops, you need only a collect of $12.55, then $8.40. then $6.30, then $5.05, then $4.20 and finally $3.60 to make a profit for the series. Hit a good return at the end of the series, at around Bet No. 16, and you'd be rolling in clover.
Let's look at an example of how things might go:
L (1), L (1), L (1), L (1), L(2), L (2), L (2), L (3) WIN $4 div., L (3), L (4), L (4), WIN $6 div., L (5), WIN $8 div., L (7).
Your total stake is $25. You have struck three quinellas, each paying (for 50c) $4, $6 and $8 (odds of 7-1, 11-1, and 15-1). You have three units on the $4 quinella, five units on the $6 quinella and six units on the $8 quinella.
Your total returns, then, are $132.84. You have made a handsome profit.
Had you struck only the first two quinellas you would have had total returns of $42, so you would still have made a profit of $17 on your total outlay. One quinella only, say the first one, and you would have lost $13. One quinella only, say the second one, and you would have won $5. One quinella, say the last one, and you would have won $23.
This is what I like to call careful progressive staking. You are tackling things cautiously, without risking enormous amounts of capital. To cover that total $25 outlay all you need is one quinella at 50-1 ($25 for 50 cents).
The beauty of it is that you are never risking too much money. You have a total of 16 bets in the progression, and yet even if all were wiped out you would be only $25 astray. You could then go into a second progression, and a $25 collect on your first bet would put you square. Let's assume the worst, and say that you lost all 16 bets in the first progression.
You then start again.You go another six losers, meaning you have lost another $10 (four bets at $1 and two at $2). You finally score a winning quinella and it pays $10 for 50 cents. You have two units on it so you get a return of $20. That one quinella return has now put you only $17 behind.
Should you strike a $7 quinella at your next try you would be in front again, because you'd have it three times, for a return of $21. Hopefully, you will not go 22 quinella bets without striking a winner; if you do then I seriously suggest you have a frank look at your selection methods! It would e ovious there was a dangerous 'fault line' in your thinking, and one that would need urgent attention.
Incidentally, you would stand a great chance of making this particular progression plan work profitably at greyhound racing. With this in mind, I commend to you an article by George 'Barker' Bellfield in the 1989 P.P.M.
Annual, which tells you how to 'rate' and 'price' greyhounds. It is ideal for sorting out the best three dogs in a race for quinella punters.

More than a dozen teams from Greater Cleveland competed Saturday in the first round of Erie Hack 2.0 — an innovative water-solutions competition that attracts the best and brightest from Northeast Ohio and the surrounding region.
The regional competition, which will culminate in a June 20 summit in Cleveland, is among the 2019 events highlighting the 50th anniversary of the Cuyahoga River Fire. Cleveland's quarterfinals were held at The Midtown Tech Hive and featured teams with members from John Carroll University, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland State and more. Judges included Jess Moyer, Advanced Technology & Innovation, Xylem Inc.; Blake Oatey, director of Business Development, Oatey Corp.; and representatives from Ohio State, Cleveland Water and the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District.
The other quarterfinals events will be held in in Toledo, Ohio; Detroit; Erie, Pennsylvania; Buffalo, New York; and Windsor, Ontario later this month. Winners from each quarterfinal will advance to the semifinal in Detroit on June 5 in conjunction with the Sustainable Brands Conference. Winners there will advance to the June 20 final in Cleveland.
For a full list of teams that competed Saturday at The Midtown Tech Hive, visit eriehack.io/teams.
The Erie Hack competition is one of Cleveland Water Alliance's most high-profile programs and accelerates technology solutions to Lake Erie's most pressing problems.
CWA is a non-profit organization that leads a network of corporations, universities, research institutions, public agencies and utilities dedicated to building a "blue economy" around innovation and technology on the lake.
"Resolution of our water challenges requires a clear definition of the core problems, paired with rigorous brainstorming and concept validation. Erie Hack is exactly that. Never before have I seen such a talented group of bright minds gathered in one place to solve an issue," says Blake Oatey, CWA board member and director of business development at Oatey Corp.
The first Erie Hack took place in 2017 at the Cleveland Convention Center. Teams from Detroit, Akron and Buffalo took home top prizes and their proposed products are in production. Like last time, there will be a High School Hack, too. Erie Hack and the Cleveland Water Alliance receive strong community and corporate support from lead Erie Hack sponsors Oatey, Digital C, Xylem and the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District.


I'm teaming up with Grand Circus to deliver another .NET developer bootcamp this Spring. This bootcamp will teach the core skills necessary to build modern web applications using ASP.NET and the core .NET framework.
For most of my regular readers, this bootcamp is probably too introductory for you. It does not assume that your have any prior knowledge of C#, or ASP.NET. We start at the beginning, and move as fast as possible to learn the core skills needed.
However, if any of you have friends or associates that are interested in making a career change and learning to be a developer, this is a great way to start. During the 8 weeks, students learn the core skills needed to make that transition. In addition, Grand Circus will be providing placement assistance to help students land that first developer position.
If anyone you know wants to become a developer, and be part of Detroit's Renaissance, tell them to sign up here. We had great success with the first bootcamp (over 80% of those students have landed developer jobs), and I'm anticipating the same outcome this time.
