Q: Spring: annotation-config base-package In spring configuration <context:component-scan> supports a base-package attribute to limit it classpath search. However, <context:annotation-config> does not seem to have a similar attribute. What's more, component scan implicitly enables annotation config. However, that seems to mean that by enabling component scanning in just one package of the project I have to enable annotation scanning in the whole project. Is that true, and if so, can it be avoided?

A: Using <context:component-scan base-package="com.org.pkg1"/> doesn't imply that you are

enabling annotation scanning in the whole project

It's true that <context:component-scan> also enables <context:annotation-config>. But the latter only allows the recognition of annotations in the already registered beans (no matter if they come from a scan or from XML).
Answering your question:

Is that true, and if so, can it be avoided

No.
This is the official doc for annotation-scanning:

Activates various annotations to be detected in bean classes: Spring's
  @Required and @Autowired, as well as JSR 250's @PostConstruct,
  @PreDestroy and @Resource (if available), JAX-WS's @WebServiceRef (if
  available), EJB 3's @EJB (if available), and JPA's @PersistenceContext

Business dress standards have evolved incredibly since a suit and tie were the norm. In our office, you'll see a variety, from formal suits to tshirt and jeans, depending on the job type.
If you are a graphic designer, you're considered artsy and therefore allowed to dress weird or casual. In fact, I had an advertising professor who went as far as to say if we were going into an advertising agency, especially if we were applying for a creative job, the business suit is the death of you. However, if you're an accountant, anything short of a suit is considered highly unprofessional. The questions come up somewhere in between a graphic designer and an accoutant.
In my experience, the amount of time you spend in front of a client will directly affect how formal your business attire will be, as in the graphics guy probably doesn't have a lot of direct face-time with the client, whereas Client Services might be meeting the client for lunch. However, still another caviat is the type of client, i.e. is it a Surf Shop or a Fortune 100 company? It's appropriate to dress to fit with those you're serving; it makes them feel more at ease with you.
Regardless of all of the above, most companies these days are a little more relaxed about what you wear. Generally speaking, as you'd be comfortable wearing the outfit for lunch with your grandmother, you're in the clear.
If nothing else, play follow the leader. Does your boss wear pantsuits while the rest of the office wears jeans? I would lean into pantsuits, (and vice versa as applicable). And think of attire as an opportunity to dress for the job you want, not the job you have. Dress up, or down, depending on the position.
Does your company have an unusually flexible or strict dress code?
I like this. Keep it coming!


Immense fun up at Alton Towers as Bompas & Parr created a huge climbing wall with a chocolate waterfall running off one side. Soundscapes evoked the Swiss Alps and a treacherous windy summit. The music composed was a large orchestral work that celebrated climbing and accomplishment. At the top, I designed a button that could be pressed to initial a trumpet fanfare.

Udimore Church
July 7, 2016 August 24, 2016 Bob Chantler
Church of St Mary
Off B2089, Udimore, East Sussex TN31 6BB
Although recorded in the Domesday book of 1086, when the name was Dodimere, the oldest extant part of the church at Udimore dates from the 12th century. The north wall of the nave, excluding the top 1 footbut including the taller one of two blocked semi-circular headed doorways, are from this time, c1170.
c1200, a south aisle was added, but this was later removed leaving the blocked three arch arcade.
A chancel was added early in the 13h century, soon after the south aisle, and then the tower was built c1230.
Unusually, the chancel is a little wider than the nave. Its build date is confirmed by the three stepped east lancet windows withconcentric rere-arches, and by the chancelarch, which has a pointed head of two orders, the inner one being supported on corbels with typical dogtooth mouldings.
The tower arch, has a double chamfered head and semi-octagonal responds, the north one having alternating light and dark stones.
The tower arch
18th century plastered wooden font
Lancet window above porch
There are two fonts at St Mary's. The main one, in front of the tower arch, dates from 1898. Of greater historical interest is a wooden font dating from the 18th century. It has been plastered to disguise the fact that it was made from wood, the use of which, for fonts, was banned after the Reformation.
In the 19th century a porch was added, built onto the centre of the three former south aisle arcade arches. It incorporates a 15th century door.
Above the porch door is a small lancet window (third photograph in the gallery) with lovely stained glass, dated 1905, depicting the Madonna and Child. The inscription below reads 'to the Glory of God and in memory of a short vicar late 1897 – 1905'.
Piscina in the east repond of the south arcade
The piscina in chancel south wall
Early english stiff leaf carving
Above: The piscina in the east respond of the south arcade (first picture in gallery). It is similar in style to the westernmost of the arcade arches, dating it to c1200. The large piscina in the south wall of the chancel has a segmented head and is probably 13th century. Also showing in the second gallery photograph is the stone string course which links the window sills.
The large centre pier of the south arcade has stiff-leaf carving on the capital. This stylised foliage decoration is typical of the Early English Gothic period.

Highgate Private Hospital received an outstanding rating for well-led services and a good overall grading from the Care Quality Commission.
This was the first time that the hospital had undergone an independent inspection from the regulator.
Located in an exclusive area of north London, Highgate Private Hospital intends to provide outstanding healthcare for the community.
Inspectors found that services at the hospital were particularly consistent, with every other category other than that well-led services being rated as good by the CQC.
The inspection had taken place between 6th and 8th December last year, with the intention of discovering the patient experience of care and treatment at the hospital.
Care Quality Commission investigations assess whether services are safe, effective, caring, responsive to people's needs, and well-led.
Services at the hospital are provided to insured, self-paying and private patients, while there is also provision for NHS customers.
The report noted that the culture within the hospital is particularly open and transparent, with staff demonstrating a willingness to learn and improve, while also observing best practices regularly.
Employees interviewed during the inspection indicated that they were both happy and proud to work for the hospital, while the senior management team was well regarded by healthcare professionals at the organisation.
The Care Quality Commission were also encouraged that staff felt confident to raise any concerns or suggestions with the senior management team.
Patients also received excellent treatment at the hospital, with the Care Quality Commission finding that dignity and respect were afforded to those residing in the hospital by staff, including nurses, housekeeping employees and porters.
The Director of Highgate Private Hospital, Mark Hawken, indicated that he is delighted at the outcome of the Care Quality Commission inspection, and outlined his gratefulness to those working within the hospital.

I am a full-time working mama for a large tech company. I've been working for them for 3.5 years and this has been my first "big girl job" since graduating college in 2014. I really do enjoy my job and I'm incredibly thankful for the blessing of this profession and the benefits it provides for me and my family. But, I do have to say, it's not easy.
After visiting multiple daycares, we found the absolute perfect fit! I was nervous about it but felt very at peace with our decision. Returning to work was extremely hard, but after a few weeks of adjustment, I started to feel more sure of my decision to return to work full-time and have Emmy in a loving, safe daycare where she learns and plays with her friends and teachers all day.
Just because we found a good daycare doesn't mean that I doubt my decision from time to time. Emmy is growing and changing every day. It's so hard to know that she is having new experiences and new "firsts" that I am missing out on. She spends more hours of the day with her daycare teachers than with me. They comfort her when she's upset when it should be me. Cue all the mama guilt! I continue to remind myself, I'm providing for her even if I'm not with her 24/7! I'm using the gifts God gave me by doing my job well. As a result, I am earning an income that enables me to provide medical benefits for our family, provide a roof over our heads and save money for her future.
Just because full-time work is the right thing for our family at this stage of life, doesn't mean this will be the right decision for our family forever. We continuously pray and ask God for guidance and direction in our lives. For now, I will continue to thank God for the blessings he's given us through my career. I make the most of the time I have with Emmy and remind her how much I love her and will always be there for her when she needs me.

Q: How do you convert a Hex value coming in a video container into a UTC timestamp? My mp4 container contains a value of (0XC64322C1) for creation time, and the analyzer interprets as 2009/05/27 17:02:57; How is this conversion done.A C code implementation for the same would be of great help.

A: That is the number of seconds that have elapsed since midnight on January 1st, 1904. Googling this date reveals that lot of software uses this as an epoch, and it appears to be a holdover from legacy days.
I found this QuickTime file format specification which specifically refers to this date, as well as this thread and this interesting (albeit a bit lengthy) blog post.

Marron Junction railway station was a later addition to the Cockermouth and Workington Railway. It opened on 2 April 1866 with a single, eastbound, platform when the adjacent Marron Junction opened, two months before the company was absorbed by the London and North Western Railway.

In 1874 an island platform was added to the south of the main east–west line, opposite the single eastbound platform. giving three platform faces.

History
Marron Junction joined the west-east Workington to Cockermouth (later through to Penrith) line with the then new south–north Whitehaven, Cleator and Egremont Railway line from Rowrah. The junction was in open country. It had a substantial triangular layout with an engine shed inside the south-to-east arm. Both the west-to-east and south-to-west arms bridged the River Marron. Marron Junction station was immediately west of the junction's northwestern apex. The triangular layout warranted three signalboxes, one at each apex.

This isolated rural location was further complicated by a branch to Linefitz Colliery running from the west and bisecting the south-to-east arm of the triangle, similarly to .

The station was bounded by the River Derwent to the north and was not near any town or village. It was intended as an exchange station for passengers crossing between the east–west and south–north lines. South-north trains terminated at Marron Junction station, from which passengers could travel west or east. The value of this arrangement hinged on the connections.

The station attracted little custom other than railwaymen whose duties took them to Marron Junction.

The station closed to regular passenger traffic in 1897. From then on the south–north trains from Rowrah continued through to Workington Main, an altogether more satisfactory service for its users. Passengers wishing to travel south to east stayed on to the next stop west of the junction - Camerton - and crossed to the other platform to head east.

Although Marron Junction station closed in 1897 railwaymen continued to use it as an unadvertised halt until after 1923.

The south-to-east curve at Marron junction was closed on 1 October 1902. This rendered the south and east signalboxes redundant. The western 'box was replaced to befit its singular role. Normal passenger traffic ended along the south to west curve on 13 April 1931, with normal goods traffic following in 1954. An enthusiasts' special ran south-to-west on 5 September 1954. After scant occasional use the south-to-west line was abandoned in 1960.

Afterlife
By 2015 Marron Junction triangle was readily discernible on satellite images online. The station site appeared to be a footpath through ribbons of trees.

Patient-centered approaches to improving medication adherence hold promise, but evidence of their effectiveness is unclear. This review reports the current state of scientific research around interventions to improve medication management through four patient-centered domains: shared decision-making, methods to enhance effective prescribing, systems for eliciting and acting on patient feedback about medication use and treatment goals, and medication-taking behavior.We reviewed literature on interventions that fell into these domains and were published between January 2007 and May 2013. Two reviewers abstracted information and categorized studies by intervention type.We identified 60 studies, of which 40% focused on patient education. Other intervention types included augmented pharmacy services, decision aids, shared decision-making, and clinical review of patient adherence. Medication adherence was an outcome in most (70%) of the studies, although 50% also examined patient-centered outcomes.We identified a large number of medication management interventions that incorporated patient-centered care and improved patient outcomes. We were unable to determine whether these interventions are more effective than traditional medication adherence interventions.Additional research is needed to identify effective and feasible approaches to incorporate patient-centeredness into the medication management processes of the current health care system, if appropriate.


We need a stronger, tougher Asean to deal with China, to make it bargain in good faith and treat its neighbors with civility. A vigorous national defense cannot exist without strong, security alliances with other nations.
It may not get the politicians their much-coveted TV sound bites, but away from the limelight perhaps backdoor diplomacy—in the context of the tensions in the South China Sea—could produce more significant results than official statements and posturing.
Backdoor diplomacy is basically conducting politics out of the public view and would be crucial in the territorial disputes between the Philippines and China, where neither nation is willing to admit fault or wants to be seen as backing down or as being inferior to the other. The failure of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) to come up with a joint communiqué on issues in the South China Sea at the end of their meeting in Cambodia last week makes backdoor diplomacy all the more crucial.
Indeed, the Asean missed a wonderful opportunity to show the world that it is not just some motley group that gets together for junkets. It was the first time in 45 years that the Foreign Ministers' Meeting of the Asean was not concluded with the release of a communiqué showcasing common ground. A belated joint statement that will reportedly be issued by the Asean to save face doesn't offer much hope. Asean must show stronger solidarity on the Spratlys issue, since four of the six claimants over the oil-rich Spratlys are Asean members.
Asean is a big market for China and pressure from a major trading partner could make China more reasonable, responsible and amenable to finding mutually acceptable solutions to the Spratlys dispute.
Indeed, China seems to be taking its cue from the passive and rather wimpy Asean responses to its aggression.
To recall, no joint action was taken by the Asean when China occupied the Philippine-claimed Mischief Reef in 1995, and this only encouraged more incursions and the building of permanent structures in the Spratlys.
Individual Asean members must realize that they can't act on threats only when it directly concerns their own countries. They need to work together, to speak and act as one to project more strength especially when dealing with a superpower like China.
The Philippines has the 1951 Mutual Defense Treaty with the US, for instance. As a sovereign nation we have an inherent right to use this treaty in the interest of peace and security. Otherwise, why have a treaty at all when we are not prepared to invoke and honor it.Let us not shut our doors on parallel tracks of diplomacy, like those provided by the constant and stable trade relations between Chinese and Filipino business groups.
After all, the Philippines has a $60-billion two-way trade target with China. China is the country's third-largest trading partner and the Philippines is sixth among China's export markets.
China is also a significant donor to the Philippines. In fact, China backed the P5.2-billion Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System's Angat Water Utilization and Aquedact Improvement Project at the La Mesa Dam Portal in Quezon City. The project is meant to improve water delivery to 21 million residents of Manila and surrounding provinces. It was funded through the Preferential Buyer's Credit of China Export-Import Bank and its main contractor is the China International Water and Electric Co.
Some may object to China's "checkbook diplomacy," which may be a kind of backdoor diplomacy too, but we don't see the harm if such longstanding financial aid could enhance our bilateral ties, for as long as the money given is accounted for transparently, spent as it should on development projects, and doesn't line the pockets of corrupt government officials.
Our point again is that when tensions among nations are at their height, the more we need to strengthen connections, the more we need to find means and build bridges for maintaining ties and backdoor diplomacy.
We may just find that we have many more things in common with China than differences.
On July 20, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) replaced an embarrassing silence with a six-point consensus. Cambodian Foreign Minister Hor Namhong announced the six points in Phnom Penh. Earlier in the week, as the chair of an ASEAN foreign ministers' meeting, he had failed to convey the usual joint statement summarizing its deliberations. Instead he said nothing at all.
The issue was whether and how to mention the recent standoff between China and the Philippines over Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea. Philippine Foreign Minister Albert del Rosario blamed Hor Namhong for a fit of pique in canceling the entire statement. Hor Namhong blamed del Rosario for insisting on citing the standoff. For whatever reason, the Cambodian minister had been, to quote an Indonesian saying, "silent in a thousand languages" – mutely shouting to the world that ASEAN could not even agree to disagree.
To ASEAN's rescue came Marty Natalegawa, the foreign minister of by far its largest member, Indonesia. It took him just two days of emergency shuttle diplomacy to hammer out the six points of agreement that Hor Namhong would read out on behalf of himself and his fellow ministers regarding the South China Sea.
The six points articulated by Hor Namhong in the Khmer language and variously reported in English translation can be summarized as a reaffirmation of the ministers' desire: to observe the Declaration on Conduct of the Parties in the South China Sea and follow the guidelines for its implementation; to work toward an early adoption of a Code of Conduct (that would upgrade the Declaration); to exercise self-restraint and avoid threatening or using force; and to uphold the peaceful settlement of disputes in keeping with universally recognized principles of international law, including the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
China's claim to sovereignty over almost the entire South China Sea places it squarely at odds with four other claimants inside ASEAN – Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Vietnam. To the extent that Beijing wants to negotiate its self-described "indisputable" claim at all, it wants to do so only bilaterally with each rival, one on one.
The splits within ASEAN over the South China Sea have been papered over not resolved. Natalegawa was able to elicit agreement on the six points and to persuade his Cambodian colleague to read them out at a press conference for the world to hear. But the Indonesian foreign minister could not stop Hor Namhong from using that same occasion to claim innocence and hurl guilt.
As a multilateral actor, ASEAN has been pressured relentlessly by China to say nothing about these disputes. When Hor Namhong did exactly that at the end of the foreign ministers' meeting, he was accused of splitting ASEAN on Beijing's behalf. But rather than strike a conciliatory note at his press conference, the Cambodian blamed the failure to agree on a communique on "two countries".
So much for reconciliation. Natalegawa must now have mixed feelings: glad he could elicit a statement but worried about what could happen back in Phnom Penh this November when Cambodia will chair the ASEAN summit in the presence of a dozen or more heads of state from Asian and other countries.
The six points did not mention the confrontation at Scarborough Shoal. That was a necessary compromise, made for the sake of consensus. But the omission could be taken by Cambodia and others in ASEAN as a precedent worth keeping: not even to allude to instances of bad conduct in which China is involved. Refusing to see, hear, and speak no evil may buy time for a solution to be reached, but it could also merely prolong the reaching.
More encouraging is something the six points do mention: the need to act in conformity with international law, including the provisions of UNCLOS.
The Law of the Sea prescribes in detail the lines that can be drawn around rocks and islands to distinguish territorial seas from extended economic zones, respectively. The law also defines the rights that are allowed in these jurisdictions. But UNCLOS does not answer the question of sovereignty – whose lines and rights they are – and China has explicitly rejected the dispute-settling provisions that the law does contain. Nevertheless, the inclusion of recourse to UNCLOS among the six points is encouraging as a reminder to all of the claimants that they need to specify, by latitude and longitude, exactly where "their" lines lie.
In this legal context, ambiguity is the enemy of progress, and of all the claims, the most ambiguous is China's self-assigned U-shaped nine-dash line. That "tongue" spans nearly the full width of the South China Sea while running the length of its waters nearly to the shores of Indonesia's Natuna islands.
One action that ASEAN could take is to ask the International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea for an opinion – not a settlement, not a binding judgment, and not about sovereignty, just an opinion about China's line: is the U-shaped line compatible with the text of UNCLOS, or not? Which of the land features encompassed by the line are rocks, and which ones are islands? Can an EEZ be drawn around a rock?
The tribunal could decline to answer these questions, but that silence of a thousand tongues would embarrass the institution as unwilling or unable to uphold the words that are the basis of its existence. If the court did agree to issue an opinion, and the answer were damaging to China's claim – the likeliest outcome – Beijing could still stick out its "tongue," but at the cost of confirming its image as a rogue. Nor would China alone be affected. The specification of rocks versus islands, and the nautical mileage allowable around each feature, would impact the claims of Southeast Asian states as well.
If Cambodia were to prevent ASEAN from asking the tribunal for such an opinion, one or more ASEAN states could still do so. If it were known in advance that the tribunal as such would not answer, the questions could still be asked of a single judge. If it were clear that the judge could only answer in a personal capacity, even those unofficial opinions might help nudge the disputants away from demagoguery toward cartography – toward a shared understanding of what is in dispute, exactly where it lies, and what might be done about it, including joint exploration in contested areas.
Finally, Foreign Minister Natalegawa's mission to rescue ASEAN's face underscores the group's need to speak in one voice, constructively at the right time and consistently with the passage of time. If the "ASEAN way" of consensus tends to limit what the group can do to the willingness of its least willing member, the "ASEAN way" of leadership from year to year tends to privilege the likes and dislikes of whichever member happens to be in the chair.
An institutional solution would involve upgrading the ASEAN secretariat, enlarging its budget and authorizing its secretary general to be less of a secretary and more of a general. Incredibly, with only three years to go until the planned declaration of an ASEAN Community in 2015, each member state still contributes in annual dues what the poorest among them, Laos, can afford to pay. In the early years of the organization, it made sense to enshrine national sovereignty in the "ASEAN way". Today, the group needs a course correction toward greater coherence as a regional actor.
Institutional reform is unlikely for the time being. That leaves the political solution: that ASEAN be led quietly and ably "from behind" by a member state with a sense of responsibility, the asset of credibility, and a preference for persuasion over confrontation. Whether that country is Indonesia or not, its foreign minister has at least shown his Southeast Asian colleagues and the outside world that ASEAN cannot lead without being led.

2. China to deploy military garrison in South China Sea, Xinhua, 20 July 2012.
Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa has not been flying to ASEAN capitals just to try to put together a statement, or the joint communique that should have been issued at the end of the ASEAN Ministerial Meeting in Phnom Penh earlier this month. He is trying to put the ASEAN Humpty Dumpty back together again. And everyone – not least the Philippines, Vietnam, ASEAN chair Cambodia, and all other member countries, but even China, the United States, ASEAN's other dialogue partners, and all the king's horses and all the king's men, would do well to come with their glue and adhesives and participate in this effort.
At stake is much more than the few sentences that would reflect that ASEAN did discuss and come to agreement on the recent tensions between members states Vietnam and the Philippines on one hand, and the group's dialogue partner China on the other. Although certainly, one is confounded that the chair could not muster the wisdom and perseverance to forge even a minimalist consensus, perhaps – goes the speculation – because of promises made to a non-member of the ASEAN family.
Like any family, there is bickering among siblings in ASEAN. Everyone knows that ASEAN countries have diverse perspectives not just on this but on many other subjects. At the risk of speculation, does it come as a surprise that Indonesia, rather than the ASEAN Secretary General Surin Pitsuwan who is from Thailand, is doing the troubleshooting this time? It shouldn't, because Thailand and Cambodia still have to repair frayed relations themselves, with some troops still facing off in the Preah Vihear temple where border tensions have flared since 2008.
Other bilateral irritants exist among member states, but are downplayed whenever ASEAN meetings take place precisely because ASEAN itself is more important than the sum of its parts, and certainly more important than any single member. Therefore for the last 45 years, the ASEAN joint communique would be issued at the end of a meeting, even if it is expected to reflect only the lowest common denominator, and even if only as a symbolic affirmation of shared strategic interests.
By breaking with what had thus far been consistent ASEAN practice of issuing a communique, the message is that perhaps some members don't recognize that those shared strategic interests still exist. If so, what is the purpose of ASEAN or what is the purpose of their being in ASEAN?
I would argue that the most important strategic interest that ASEAN must pursue and which has underpinned its existence all these years is the need for the small and medium powers that comprise Southeast Asia to collectively preserve their autonomy against any great power that would dominate the region. This is why Cambodia's perceived weakness in the face of Chinese pressure and enticements is so important, as it has hurt ASEAN's most important aspiration.
For the same reason, and this is important for the Aquino government to understand – the Philippines' perceived excessive and unabashed enthusiasm for the United States to intervene in a resolution of the territorial disputes, however understandable from the national interest point of view, also unnerves many in ASEAN, even those who quietly support a robust US presence. After all, the US is the other elephant in the room, and what is provoking China's assertiveness is precisely Beijing's fear of a US 'rebalancing' in Asia being directed against it, and ASEAN becoming Washington's co-conspirator.
If ASEAN cannot speak with one voice, as we saw in Phnom Penh, it not only undermines ASEAN's so-called "centrality" but it delegitimizes ASEAN's role as a collective actor in dealing with other countries, especially as it prepares to negotiate with China on a code of conduct on the South China Sea. In the context of China's rapid military modernization and growing assertiveness, these upcoming negotiations should be a critical opportunity for ASEAN to pursue conflict prevention measures that could spell the difference between peace and armed conflict in its maritime domain.
Such conflict prevention measures may involve a moratorium on further expansion of military presence, military exclusion zones around disputed land features, agreements on how to deal with fishing activities in the overlapping claims, hotlines between leaders, among others. These, more than resolution of the ownership issue over Bajo de Masinloc as the Philippines prefers, are the urgent tasks ahead of ASEAN. So urgent that, if ASEAN's non-claimants will feel burdened by what these difficult negotiations may entail, then the claimants (Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia and Brunei) at the very least, with the support of ASEAN members who do feel they are stakeholders (possibly Indonesia and Singapore), should consider establishing a separate framework – preferably under ASEAN auspices – to pursue the code of conduct talks with China.
As the dust settles from an Asean meeting last week marked by unprecedented rancour over territorial disputes in the South China Sea, the focus of those pondering the future of the grouping is settling on two words: Hun Sen.
In November, the Cambodian prime minister will host his counterparts from Southeast Asia and beyond – including President Hu Jintao and US President Barack Obama – for the East Asia Summit.
And after the historic failure of last week's sessions to produce a communique amid a bitter struggle over its role in the disputes, some regional envoys are wondering whether Hun Sen will sow further discord.
Last week's breakdown in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations – a body that is supposed to cherish unity and consensus – saw Hun Sen's long-serving foreign minister, Hor Namhong, accused by rival diplomats of "doing China's bidding" in shattering the chances of a common position on the South China Sea.
The atmosphere risks poisoning upcoming talks between China and Asean on a long-awaited code of conduct to better control intensifying tensions in the South China Sea – which is rich in oil and gas and one of the world's most crucial waterways.
Having failed in a last-ditch attempt to secure a communique last Friday, Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa – representing Southeast Asia's largest nation – was this week shuttling between Hanoi, Phnom Penh and Manila to salvage something from a week of tension.
A hastily-arranged common statement issued last night in place of the failed communique- backed by Cambodian warnings that two unnamed countries were to blame – appears to have only highlighted the divisions now exposed across the region, analysts believe.
Getting more co-operation from Hun Sen will be crucial if internal Asean tensions to be eased as Cambodia serves out its year as the grouping's chair.
Having held power, one way or another, through Cambodia's transition to a democracy since 1985, Hun Sen is sometimes described as Asia's last strongman. By turns prickly, contrarian and difficult to predict, he's never been accused of being a statesman, yet no one underestimates his shrewdness or cunning.
An accomplished chess player in private, Hun Sen is also known as a master player of bigger powers, constantly keeping his neighbours slightly off balance.
In recent years, Beijing has become Cambodia's biggest trade, aid and military partner, outspending the US by a factor of 10. The opulent Peace Palace where Hun Sen met the Asean foreign ministers – one of the biggest buildings in downtown Phnom Penh – is among the many symbols of Chinese loans and investments now visible in Cambodia.
Yet Hun Sen has also successfully buttressed relations with Washington, and US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is promising greater aid commitments. The state of his ties with his old patron – Hanoi – is murkier, however.
A deputy regimental commander in the Khmer Rouge, who lost an eye on the day the ultra-Maoists took Phnom Penh in April 1975 to launch a genocidal experiment in extreme Maoism, Hun Sen fled its purges two years later by crossing into Vietnam. Hanoi trained him and installed him in Cambodia's government after their invasion in late 1978 to drive their former fraternal allies from power. At 27, Hun Sen was the world's youngest foreign minister. All these years later, he is now the longest-serving leader in Southeast Asia.
In April, he bristled at suggestions from foreign scholars that he was now in China's pocket.
"What I hate and am fed up with is talk about Cambodia working China and must be under some kind of influence. That is completely wrong," he said.
Several foreign analysts and scholars, however, have noted that China's pre-meeting rhetoric and intense lobbying of Cambodia suggested that Beijing was determined to undermine Asean unity. Certainly, statements from officials and the state press in recent days do little to shift that view.
As diplomats staged a last-ditch bid to avert the failure to produce a communique last Friday, Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Weimin spoke of "productive" talks in Phnom Penh. He said "China's views and position on many issues have won the appreciation and support of many participating countries".
Commentaries in the state press this week have been even more biting in celebration, however. Claiming a victory, Global Times attacked Manila and Hanoi for "disgracing themselves" in their push to raise concerns about Chinese actions to assert sovereignty with their claimed exclusive economic zones, dismissing them as "troublemakers".
"The country [China] used to be overwhelmingly worried about the consequences of insisting on its interests. Now it will not become worse of it," said an editorial in Global Times, which is published by People's Daily, China's Communist Party's main mouthpiece.
While the state press attacks hone in on Vietnam and the Philippines, various accounts of the closed-door talks among foreign ministers suggest strong, if less specific, concerns about the need for a robust message on the South China Sea were also voiced by Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and, eventually, Thailand.
But Hor Namhong repeatedly warned against specific references to nations' continental shelves, economic zones or the disputed Scarborough Shoal, known as Huangyan Island to Beijing. He repeatedly raised the prospect of a lack of consensus scuttling the communique.
Amid Hor Namhong's repeated warnings, emotions clearly started to run high. According to one account, Philippine Foreign Secretary Albert Del Rosario even quoted a famous line from German pastor Martin Niemoller on the perils of doing nothing.
As the impasse dragged into Friday, Indonesia's Natalegawa staged an intense, last-ditch attempt to secure a communique, even hauling the Singaporean delegation back from the airport for support.
His efforts reflected the broader desire of Indonesia – Asean's most populous country by far, with more than 240 million people – to strengthen Asean's involvement in pressing regional issues.
In Phnom Penh last week, after at least 18 drafts and compromises from Vietnam and the Philippines, Hor Namhong still didn't budge. The last hopes were dashed when the Cambodian minister picked up his papers and stormed out of the room.
Surveying the damage, former Asean secretary-general Rodolfo Severino said he did not want to apportion blame for an event he described as a "bad thing".
When asked about reports that China was determined to destroy any Asean unity over the South China Sea, he noted Beijing's long-standing position of wanting to settle specific territorial disputes in one-to-one talks with individual claimants.
Severino added: "If China has allowed itself to be perceived that way then it may have been counter-productive. It will emphasise the need for Asean to stick together, not to mention other powers.
Severino did say, however, that Asean had faced difficult and tense moments during its 45-year history, including discussions over human rights in the early 1990s and its reaction to Vietnam's invasion of Cambodia – then both non-members – in 1978. The spirit of compromise and consensus remained strong, he said.
In that regard, he said that while it was possible that talks about a formal code of conduct could be buffeted by the breakdown, it might also serve to "concentrate minds on the need to avoid armed conflict. All is not lost … and there is still plenty of room for cool heads to prevail".
Another lingering question will be the relationship between Cambodia and Vietnam. Ties, particularly with Vietnamese military figures, are believed to have remained deep and strong, even as Hun Sen has intensified ties with China.
Does the recent breakdown over the communique signal a complete breakdown in Hanoi-Phnom Penh ties? Hun Sen, after all, must know that the South China Sea dispute has long been among the hottest issues for the leadership of Vietnam's Communist Party, a cause hard-wired into their internal propaganda script.
Then there is the fact that, despite lingering tensions with the ethnic Khmer majority, more than 1 million Vietnamese are estimated to be living among the 15 million people in Cambodia.
"The Vietnamese must be apoplectic with Hun Sen right now … that he has put China's relationship before Vietnam's to such an extent," said Ian Storey, a Singapore-based scholar of Asia's strategic issues.
There are, after all, few more sensitive and strategic relationships in the region.

Business Expert Investor Nigerian company
Olugbenga Agboola releases the Flutterwave gates
Flutterwave is a Nigerian company that provides payment options in the global marketplace. Started in 2016 by Olugbenga Agboola, the CEO and his over 300 staff members dispersed throughout San Francisco and Lagos to form their headquarters. Several African investors such as Tyme Bank, Diool, and Stich helped the deluge of the Flutterwave grow. Additionally, with the aid of angel investors, accelerators, and venture capitalists, it only broadened the horizons of the new fintech company.
Kids Velvet Tutu Dress – Ultimatedealer via @theflutterwave https://t.co/tCFchQjt41
— Ekeh Catherine (@ekeh_catherine) December 9, 2022
In the summer of 2016, Flutterwave was one of only 2 startups that were admitted into YCombinator's accelerated program. This got Zachariah George's attention, a former Barclay's banker. He was sold on Flutterwave's solutions and made the leap to invest.
By mid 2017, Olugbenga Agboola's company had raised ten million in a Series A round. Series A is a crucial stage for new business funding. By then, Flutterwave had processed over a billion dollars in transactions. Come 2018, Mastercard jumped on board. That led to a Visa partnership which got them a partnership with GetBarter in 2019.
Also sitting in FW's corner, Endeavor. Endeavor is a network of over 2000 and growing community of startup entrepreneurs in emerging markets. This may also help pave the way for more African founded startups to join the wave.
Olugbenga Agboola still has an upward trajectory in mind. Series C funding is on the horizon. Furthermore, he looks to list Flutterwave on the New York Stock Exchange. This would be yet another amazing notch on the belt of African fintech. Starting an IPO (Initial Public Offering) is also a very real possibility for not just deep pocketed investors can get a piece of the wave, but smaller investors as well.
Keep your eyes on this pony. Flutterwave has proven that it has more than just one trick. FW very well may be in your portfolio one day where you can ride the wave to success- a well deserved homage to its beginnings in 2016.

Lakewood's own distillery to open in November

The "Ballmer Peak," named after Steve Ballmer, the former CEO of Microsoft, claims there is a relationship between blood-alcohol levels and the improvement of cognitive ability.
In Lakewood, the term "Ballmer Peak" also happens to be the name of a distillery that is opening up in the city.
"The Ballmer Peak is essentially a graph when your productivity goes down when you're drinking, and then it spikes, and then goes back down to nothing. That little spike is known as the Ballmer Peak," said Eric Strom, a former web developer and co-owner of the upcoming Ballmer Peak Distillery. "If you get the joke, you get it. If not, it sounds like a really Colorado-y thing."
Strom and his best friend Austin Adamson went through middle school and high school together in Arizona. Now, the two are preparing to open up the Ballmer Peak Distillery in Lakewood. The distillery will rest at 12347 W. Alameda Parkway, and the two hope to open up sometime in November.
The Ballmer Peak Distillery will be the only current distillery located in the city.
"We realized what an opportunity it is to provide this type of experience to this surrounding neighborhood. We want this to be a place where someone can say `this is made in my neighborhood'," said Adamson. "Hopefully we can bring in the local working crowd for happy hour where (spirits) are made in their backyard."
Strom and Adamson have had an appreciation for whiskey for quite some time, but the idea to open up a distillery didn't hit the two until they ended up at a distillery after a brewery crawl around Golden. After back and forth talks, Strom and Adamson drilled out a business plan for their dream distillery.
"As we looked at how things are produced, we just fell in love with the industry and the creativeness around it," said Strom.
When it comes time to open, Ballmer Peak Distillery will have five different spirits to choose from, including three rums, a white whiskey and an Australian inspired gin. Adamson has lived in Australia before, and he wants to use botanicals that are native to the country for the Australian gin.
The distillery's menu will have a variety of drinks to choose from like "Rum-DMC," a drink made with silver and gold rum, pineapple juice, miso syrup and a splash of Australian style gin, and "Long Drink," which contains a mix of gin, grapefruit juice, simple syrup and seltzer.
"A big goal for us is to be affordable, because I personally hate going out and spending $10 to $15 on a drink. We can be a neighborhood spot where you can come in and spend a night here, and you're not going to go bankrupt," said Strom. "We're making this stuff because we think it's good, and we want people to try it."
Ballmer Peak Distillery has already partnered with Lakewood's Old 121 brewery to develop sparkling sodas that customers can drink or spike with Ballmer Peak Distillery's spirits. Adamson said he is hopeful that the distillery can bring food trucks to Ballmer Peak Distillery as well.
"Colorado is one of the leading states in the craft brew and spirits industry, and Lakewood is a natural fit for the entrepreneurs leading that industry. We've had great success with several breweries in town, and Ballmer will be an excellent addition to our business community," said Robert Smith, Lakewood's economic development director.

Marshfield, April 1901: Tarred and feathered
A rowdy crowd clamors for the medieval punishment
By Kris Leonhardt
The method of tar and feathering originated with Richard the Lionhearted in the days of the Crusades. The cruel torture later found its way to America's New England seaports, becoming a popular way for patriots to abuse colonists loyal to the Crown.
From there the threat of tar and feathering would find its place as a common ultimatum in mob mentality in the early days of America, and the city of Marshfield would be no exception.
On a Wednesday afternoon in April of 1901, cries rang out from a Second Street residence. As the woman shrieked in agony, neighbors were propelled into action. This had become a common event over the past year, and family and friends were fed up.
Possibly due to his father's passing a few years earlier, A.C. Loucks had taken to drinking to dull some type of pain. The habit strained the family finances, which Loucks' wife struggled to maintain. The altercation that would ensue from these domestic struggles would leave Mrs. Loucks beaten and bruised.
On this particular day, Marshfield resident Matt Wright meant to put a stop to the neighborhood upheaval at the Loucks house. Confronting Mr. Loucks at the corner of Central Avenue and Second Street, Wright set to educating Loucks on the pains of his abuses.
Soon neighbors and concerned citizens had joined Wright in the process. As the crowd grew, chants advocating tar and feathering soon followed as Loucks stood fearful.
Lucky for Loucks, Mayor Vollmar and an alderman were trying to locate a Marshfield police officer. When one could not be found, Vollmar deputized local resident John Brackendorf, who took Loucks into custody, ushering him to his home.
There, they found a beaten Mrs. Loucks, and Marshfield officer Griffin took Mr. Loucks to the city lock-up.
Loucks was charged with intent to do great bodily harm, a crime with a maximum penalty of three years.
Two weeks later Loucks would plead guilty to a lesser charge of assault and battery. He was sentenced to pay a $100 fine, plus court costs, or spend six months in jail. When the fine could not be paid, Loucks was taken to jail.
Once released, Loucks remained at odds against his neighbors and later moved to the city of Abbotsford, where he would find a new job.

Abstract: We argue that one major cause of the U.S. postwar baby boom was the rise in female labor supply during World War II. We develop a quantitative dynamic general equilibrium model with endogenous fertility and female labor-force participation decisions. We use the model to assess the impact of the war on female labor supply and fertility in the decades following the war. For the war generation of women, the high demand for female labor brought about by mobilization leads to an increase in labor supply that persists after the war. As a result, younger women who turn adult in the 1950s face increased labor-market competition, which impels them to exit the labor market and start having children earlier. The effect is amplified by the rise in taxes necessary to pay down wartime government debt. In our calibrated model, the war generates a substantial baby boom followed by a baby bust.

Q: Intellij Idea How to add interface implementation to classes? For example I have many classes than implement my interface. After adding new method definition in the interface, how can I fast-add blank interface implementations for all that classes?

A: I think the best you can do comes from their code generation tutorial, particularly by using

Ctrl+O

in an implementing class.  Otherwise I'm not aware of a way to generate an entire class.

A: You can generate an implementation of an interface by moving the caret to the name of the interface and pressing option+return (on Mac) or ALT+Enter (on PC), then hovering over Implement interface and pressing return/Enter:

Please note that my caret can't be seen but it's between the h and a of Shape
IntelliJ will then prompt you for a class name and which methods to include in the implementation, then generate a class, like this:

A: Alt+Enter on the new method in the interface, Implement method:

Press Enter, the list of implementation classes will be shown, select the desired classes using Shift+arrow keys or press Ctrl+A to select all of them, then press Enter again to confirm the choice. Stub implementations will be added to all the selected classes.

A: In IntellyJ IDEA 12 you can use Push Members Down dialog:
Refactor -> Pull Members Down...

Then select methods you want to push to subclasses and click "Refactor":
http://clip2net.com/s/i6DK41
Note that it doesn't generate the stub method by base class - it just moves it as is.
So you'll need to implement the stub by yourself in the parent (root) class, e.g.:
public boolean getRequiredDatabaseNameWhenPartitioned() {
  return true;
}

then use "Push members down", refactor, and finally make the method of the parent class abstract manually

well, i thought it's a well-understood story that all high-level management posts are filled by such people. although i didn't expect that they were way ahead of my "understanding of the world in general" - they were already reaching out to hk offices, so long ago, too.
just another example of my finance professor's famous quote "the only way to get rich is to be rich to begin with." well i guess if you have a great dad/mum also helps enormously in this instance.
quoting TNYer, "there is a difference between 'knowing' something exists and seeing it laid out in the black and white of court files."
there are certain things you can't claim their non-existence just because you can't see them. e.g. wifi.

All of the old articles I wrote on this website are still available, so if you have no idea who I am, or you haven't read any of my articles before, then go check them out! So, my first article back is going to be tactically focused and – sorry Guido – it features strikers. Only one though. I've been developing it with Santos since they have an abundance of players able to play in several positions, and as any of you who follow me on Twitter (@JLAspey) will have seen, it's been working pretty well.

Finishing Chances; How Can I Stop My Forward Finishing Like Torres At Chelsea?
Every year you get games where you absolutely dominate proceedings but end up bemused, bewildered and sometimes downright enraged. How on Earth did those pillocks you call your forward line, those descendants of a sordid love-affair between Emile Heskey and Fernando Torres, fail to put a ball past the opposing goalkeeper?! It's not like he's Superman with gloves and the size of the goal should be sufficient to see one or two balls go in instead of bouncing off the woodwork. Bloody hell, it's statistically speaking more difficult to hit the woodwork then score!
Those games tend to look something like this. We've all played games like this, where we were frustrated enough to punch random objects or people around us or throw objects around the room. Some of us would even stoop so low as to restart the game and play the match again. So what can you do about it? Jonathon Aspey from The Tactical Annals, Diego Mendoza from Pass The Bloody Ball and yours truly try to answer this frustrating question.

The Narrow 4-1-2-2-1 – Expanding Upon Defensive Football in FM14
Those of you that follow me on Twitter (@JLAspey) or have read any of my recent articles will know that I've started to become very interested in defensive football in Football Manager. I wrote an article a few months back, trying to create a side that was uber defensive, and designed to be impossible to break down, and steal 1-0 wins. Since then, I've wanted to expand on that idea, but take away the negative aspects of it, whilst still retaining the defensive stability. The original article was inspired by a fantastic thread by @Cleon81, where he achieved a fantastic season with his Sheffield United side, utilising a defensive 4-4-2 diamond formation. Another inspiration for my tactic came from @MrEds, who combined aspects of Cleon's ideas and tweaked my 'defensive diamond' in his save with Ujpest in Hungary. Like MrEds, I've recently been drawn to Hungarian football, but with Kecskemet (or KTE), a team predicted to finish 13th, and tipped for relegation by many. This seemed like a perfect situation to develop some defensive football, with a team that will need to be defensively solid in order to avoid relegation. (more…)

Kansas Lawmakers Cut Back Pension Reform Proposal
January 8, 2004 (PLANSPONSOR.com) - Kansas lawmakers significantly reduced and delayed a plan to help bail out the state's troubled public employee pension after Governor Kathleen Sebelius said the state couldn't afford the original proposal.
Fred Schneyer
The Joint Committee on Pensions, Benefits and Investments still recommended the state issue $500 million in bonds, to provide an infusion of cash and boost the investment earnings of the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (KPERS), according to a Journal-World news story.
However, the committee, at Sebelius' request, reconsidered its proposals for paying off the bonds. By investing the funds and earning 8%, state financial experts said KPERS would reap a benefit of $4 billion over the 30-year payback of the bonds. But there is no assurance the investments would produce the 8% returns.
Under the original notion, repayment of the principal and interest on the bonds would have cost about $40 million per year and come out of the state's general tax fund.But Sebelius' budget director, Duane Goossen, said that because of a tight budget, those payments weren't in the financial picture. Instead, Sebelius recommended paying off the bonds by taking the money out of the state's contributions to the pension fund. Those contributions are scheduled to start increasing next year. Under Sebelius' proposal, the KPERS benefit would drop from $4 billion to $1 billion, officials said.
Democrats on the pension committee defended Sebelius' position, saying that there are too many budget priorities and not enough money to go around."Though we desperately need to address KPERS, it is not the only desperate problem we have," said state Representative Geraldine Flaharty, D-Wichita.
Republicans accused Sebelius, a Democrat, of improperly putting off the KPERS aid. Because of inadequate state funding and stock market losses, the fund is running a $3 billion deficit. The Republicans said paying off the bonds with money from the state's pension contributions negated most of the benefit to KPERS. "I don't think it's worth the risk," state Representative Melvin Neufeld, R-Ingalls, said.
KPERS manages $9 billion in assets for 240,000 members.

Michael Burks is the liberator of the next generation blues guitarists. Although still considered a new blueblood, Burks has been performing for more than 30 years and is capable of expressing the blues like its masters did during the genre's heyday.
You likely know about Burks' fiery guitar skills, but what about his singing skills? They lie somewhere between crooning and lamenting as substantiated on tracks like "Icepick Through My Heart" from his new CD, Iron Man (Alligator). Nothing is contrived on Iron Man. It all sounds and seems entirely natural. Much of that credit goes to recording live in the studio with Burks' high-powered touring band as opposed to using studio stars as in the past.
Dubbed from Burks' nickname, which was earned from his lengthy live sets, formidable guitar playing, and ability to drive hundreds of miles non-stop, Iron Man is one of those CDs which is ideal for testing the potency of your sound system. One minute into the first track, a ripping guitar solo lets you know what's in store for the next hour.
Seven of the album's 12 songs were written or co-written by Burks. Common themes include wasted dreams, bad relationships, and shedding tears. On "No More Crying," Burks sings ("I cried so many tears/I have no tears at all"). Jimmy Johnson's "Ashes In My Ashtray" is given an interesting reading because Burks' plaintive vocals are so different from Johnson's comforting vocals. Best of all you can figure out the lyrics because the former mechanical technician for Lockheed-Martin sings them clearly. The song's hurt and betrayal burns from the smoldering fretboard just as it did on the original version.
Burks' wild slide guitar and ardent vocals sound very similar to Luther Allison on "Strange Feeling." "Quiet Little Town" is rhythmic radio rock and it contains a memorable riff. "Fire And Water" – originally made popular by the band Free and later covered by Wilson Pickett – contains another radio friendly rock steady groove. The pop/rock jam "Salty Tears" is infused with southern soul. Southern rock flourishes on "Don't Waste My Time" and "Hard Come, Easy Go." Burks projects as much fervor as he vocally can on the former, and then finishes the kill with a torrential guitar exhibition. The latter possesses a raw Tinsley Ellis edge and a blues/rock riff. It was written specifically for Burks by label-mate Ellis.
Whether you have experienced the anguish of empty promises or not, you'll know exactly what it feels like after listening to Burks' song of the same name. The arrangement and lead guitar work is impassioned and Burks' vocals are exercised to their maximum. The brilliant track reveals a vulnerable side of Burks. The intensity of the performance easily equals, if not exceeds, "All Your Affection Is Gone" from I Smell Smoke.
Compared to his last two Alligator CDs, the most noticeable difference is the fact that Burks' influences, e.g., Albert King, are no longer on display. Alligator's president, Bruce Iglauer, admits, "Watching Michael Burks mature into one of the most exciting bluesmen of his generation has been a treat for me." This CD clearly portrays Burks as one of the best contemporary blues players whose every ounce is made of iron ore.

Traditional ag and natural producers find common ground
By Jim Beers
Loveland seemed to be the perfect intersection of the natural and organic industry, with its deep roots in Boulder and Weld County, which is ranked among the nation's top counties for traditional agriculture. And so, the Ranch events complex in Loveland hosted more than 100 people for the March 30 Food & Ag Summit, produced by BizWest Media.
The Food & Ag Summit focused on technology trends to cut costs for all producers and improve food quality so that food is more readily available, accessible and affordable.
Kathay Rennels from CSU's Office of Engagement leads a panel discussion on financing agriculture during the Food & Ag Summit.
A series of panel discussions covered a wide range of topics in the areas of:
nurturing the next generation of producers
immigration reform and its impact on agriculture
financing the future of agriculture
regenerative ag and the importance of soil conservation
the latest technology trends
genetically modified organisms
Advancing the issues
"The Food & Ag Summit is a natural followup to last year's 'Advancing the Agriculture Economy Through Innovation' summit, which was held at Colorado State University and featured over 400 attendees," said Kathay Rennels, associate vice president for the Office of Engagement and moderator of the panel on financing. "BizWest did a great job of showcasing and advancing the issues that emerged from our Ag Innovation Summit. The Office of Engagement was privileged to be part of the event, and honored that the summit highlighted the work of CSU researchers and faculty."
CSU contributors to the summit included representatives from the College of Agricultural Sciences and Warner College of Natural Resources, and the Departments of Soil and Crop Sciences, Ecosystem Science and Sustainability, Agricultural and Resource Economics, and Animal Sciences.
The event also touched on some of the new and emerging trends in agriculture that impact both traditional production agriculture and the natural and organic food sectors, such as data-driven decision making, reduction of food waste and meeting an increased demand for food that is safe, secure and reasonably priced.

Jess - Matlock,Derbyshire : Pharmacy student offering Maths and Sciences tutoring in Matlock and surrounding areas (Holiday time) - and Stoke on Trent (Term Time).
Pharmacy student offering Maths and Sciences tutoring in Matlock and surrounding areas (Holiday time) - and Stoke on Trent (Term Time).
I feel confident in teaching Maths, Biology and Chemistry up to an A-level standard.
My lessons consist of a variety of things. I try to make my lessons as fun and effective as possible as I am passionate about my teaching and giving my students the best support and teaching methods to suit them.
I put a lot of time and thought into my tutoring techniques as I believe each student will have a different obstacles they can overcome and I think its important to support them on an emotional/confidence level as well as an academic one.
I am dyslexic but have found a variety of ways to overcome the challenges that I face from this. I like to use my experience to help others who may also be dyslexic or have a different learning disability.
If preparing for an exam, the first few lessons consist mainly of spotting areas which need the most work and which areas are strong. I would then go on to making worksheets of increasing difficulty and workbooks which can be taken home to practice in. I ask the student how they like to learn best and will try my hardest to incorporate as much of their preferred learning style into my teaching.
I like to support my students but also encourage them to push themselves and reach their full potential.
I also like to encourage them to explore the subject themselves and explore techniques which can come in handy for later life such as further education and how to find reliable sources on the internet and how to check over their own work.
I am currently a Second Year Pharmacy Student at Keele University and I have a job as support staff at my local nursery.
I have been tutoring for a few years in my spare time I have had between university and my school life and managed to successfully tutor students GCSE Maths so they could advance further with their education.
I also had the pleasure in tutoring a student who suffered with depression, anxiety and ME and have gained some vital experience and knowledge on how to tutor students who suffer with chronic illness which can affect their daily life.
I can travel within a suitable distance to students houses if requested however it may cost more as I would have to pay for travel.
Over the years, I have enjoyed helping children to develop into the best version of themselves as a childminder and tutor. I am extremely passionate about helping my students to achieve their full potential and help them develop learning techniques which can help them in all stretches of life.
