"World Mental Health Day" is an important occasion than ever before
October 12, 2020 by drbyos
It may seem reprehensible or unknown to many, but there is a World Mental Health Day, scheduled for October 10 every year. While many people wonder about the goal of this day, when reading the figures related to mental health worldwide issued by the World Health Organization and other institutions concerned with this field, we find that there must be a global day that pushes governments, civil society institutions, and workers in this field. The field is to raise awareness of the suffering of billions of people, and try to find solutions to reduce their suffering.
Shocking numbers
Almost one billion people in the world suffer from mental disorders, and alcohol and drug abuse kills 3 million people annually, while suicide kills one person every 40 seconds, which is the second leading cause of death for young people between the ages of 15 and 29 years.
Today, billions of people around the world are affected by the Corona pandemic, which is also exacerbating the damage to human mental health. Depression is one of the main causes of illness and disability among adolescents and adults, with 1 in 5 children and adolescents suffering from a mental disorder. And people with severe mental disorders such as schizophrenia often die ten or twenty years earlier than others.
More than 75 percent of people with mental illnesses, in low- and middle-income countries, receive no treatment at all, as a result of the decades-long chronic shortage of mental health promotion, disease prevention and care. Stigma, discrimination and human rights violations against persons with mental illness are still widespread in these societies.
The loss of productivity caused by depression and anxiety is one of the most common mental disorders, costing the global economy nearly $ 1 trillion annually, while governments allocate less than 2 percent of their national budgets to mental health. And that is despite every dollar invested in expanding treatment for depression and anxiety, it brings a return of $ 5.
Corona and mental health
Prior to the outbreak of the Coronavirus, high-cost care services in the field of mental health were limited around the world, but this outbreak and its implications for the weakness of the health system, home quarantine and social distancing led to an exacerbation of the situation, due to fear of the spread of infection and the risk of its spread in the residence facilities for mental patients, such as Care and psychiatric institutions, in addition to closing mental health facilities to divert their use to care for people with HIV.
The measures to restrict the movement of people and home quarantine, cancel the daily routine of employees and workers, change the pattern of business and close schools in the interest of distance education, temporary unemployment and the absence of direct contact with other family members, friends and colleagues, manage feelings of fear of infection with the virus, and concern about close people at risk. In particular, all are reasons that have led to more alertness and vigilance to pay attention to mental health at the time of the Corona outbreak, especially for previously mentally ill people.
For this reason, the World Health Organization joined forces with partner organizations, United for Global Mental Health and the World Federation for Mental Health, to call for this year's World Mental Health Day, for a significant increase in Investments are directed at the mental health sector, especially since the economic consequences of this pandemic are already being felt, as companies have laid off their employees in an attempt to save their business, or have already closed their doors. It is expected that the need for support in the field of mental health and psychosocial support will increase in the coming months and years due to the pandemic that is ravaging the world. Investing nationally and internationally in mental health programs, which have already suffered for years from chronic underfunding, is now more important than it has ever been.

Events on the International Day
In the context of the increasing interest in this global day this year and in light of the Corona crisis, the major demonstration for mental health was held on October 9th, which was joined by mental health activists from all over the world, and its activities were broadcast live on Facebook 24 hours , As well as content from the opinions of moderators and first-hand experiences of influential people and personalities from around the world. The virtual audience heard stories of the dedication of civil society activists from 19 countries and influential figures from civil society groups who participated in the campaign, "Speak Your Mind". Participants in the campaign are specialists and interested persons from the following nineteen countries: Argentina, Australia, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Liberia, Nepal, New Zealand, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, the Philippines, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Tonga, the United Kingdom, and the states United.
Ingrid Daniels, President of the World Federation of Mental Health, said: "It has now been nearly 30 years since the World Mental Health Federation launched the first World Mental Health Day. During this period, we have witnessed an increasing openness to talk about mental health in many countries of the world." The World Federation for Mental Health is an international organization established in 1948 to advance the issues of prevention of mental and emotional disorders, provide those with them with the necessary treatment and care, and promote mental health.
As for Elisha London, founder and CEO of United for Global Mental Health, she said, "It is now more necessary to invest in mental health than at any time in light of the lack of access to adequate and quality mental health services for many."
On October 10, the World Health Organization will, for the first time, host a global online event on awareness-raising around the world to reduce mental illness and the harmful use of alcohol and drugs. World leaders and mental health experts will join the WHO Director-General to speak about their commitment to mental health and the additional work that can be done in this area. World-renowned musicians who have raised their voices loudly in advocating the importance of mental health will participate in performing musical connections. Sports figures of both genders, whose lives have been affected by mental health conditions, will also participate to talk about their experiences and showcase their ways of dealing with health conditions such as depression and anxiety.

Q: Polymorphism: calling subclass' method from superclass' variable In Java, when a method is going to be executed, it's declaration is first searched for at the object's real class (that defines the real type of the object). If it's not found, then the superclass is checked. If isn't found there either, the next parent class is checked, and so on. However, look at the example below:
   SuperClass s = new SubClass(list of parameter);
   s.someMethodExistOnlyInSubClass();

This will give me a compile time error. I thought that, as mentioned above, it would first look for someMethodExistOnlyInSubClass() at SubClass, verify that it exists there and then execute it right away. If I use a variable of the type SuperClass to reference an instance of SubClass some parameters will go to SuperClass's constructor through a call to super() and the object will be instantiated there. In this context, to where have the remaining parameters gone?

A: By assigning a reference to an instance of SubClass to a variable of the type SuperClass, the variable is treated as if it were referencing an instance of SuperClass. Therefore, it will have no knowledge of any of the methods declared specifically in SubClass. Note, though, that the overrides performed in SubClass will still be effective.
In the context you described, to access someMethodExistOnlyInSubClass() you would have to cast s to the type SubClass. Look below:
((SubClass) s).someMethodExistOnlyInSubClass();

A: What you are trying to do will work only when the method is defined in both Parent class and subclass.
    import java.util.*;
    class Parent
    {
        public void sample()
        {
            System.out.println("Method of parent is getting Called");
        }
    }

    class Subclass extends Parent
    {
        public void sample()
        {
            System.out.println("Method of Child class is getting Called");
        }
    }

    public class Main
    {
        public static void main(String[] args){
            Parent p = new Subclass();
            p.sample();
        }
    }

OUTPUT : Method of Child class is getting Called

If the method exists only in Child class. You will have to create an instance of Child class itself.
Something like this :
import java.util.*;
class Parent
{

}

class Subclass extends Parent
{
    public void sample()
    {
        System.out.println("Method of Child class is getting Called");
    }
}

public class Main
{
    public static void main(String[] args){
        Subclass p = new Subclass();
        p.sample();
    }
}

Or you can type cast it as mentioned in the earlier post
Parent p = new Subclass();
((Subclass)p).sample();

A: An object is created based on its declaring class.
When you declare it as SuperClass s the object s wont have any method called someMethodExistOnlyInSubClass . So when you try to invoke this method, even before look at the subclass, you get a compile error.
The object s contrains only everything of the superclass, this object wont be aware of any subclass until u type cast the object to subclass.

All of us have already said goodbye to 2018 and welcomed 2019 in style. Some fashion trends have the power to transform your looks and hairstyling is one of them. Hair trends change with seasons just like other fashion trends.
Now as the summer has been gone, we are witnessing an era of entirely new and unconventional hair styling trends. Unlike previous years, 2019 is a year of experimenting and taking risks to achieve amazing looks. We have seen runway models with creative hairstyling, multiple textures, hues, and even classic looks with a modern touch.
Whether you have short hair or long hair or prefer simple or fancy ways to style your hair, there is definitely a hairstyle in the fall 2019 catalog that suits your taste and preferences. This year's fall hairstyle trends offer something for everyone so that no one feels left out from the trend parade.
If you are looking for some inspiration to transform your look for the fall, then these hairstyling trends will be making waves throughout 2019!
Ahead, you are going to get a sneak peek of fall hair trends that are gaining traction among cool girls and will rock the fall season. Consider it a handy guide for your next hairstyle appointment and prepare yourself for a happy year ahead.
Short Bob never Fades Away!
Short bob has always remained a part of the hair fashion scene. During the past few years, it was the center of attention for many fashion divas that prefer to have smaller hair. This famous haircut is getting shorter this year and falls anywhere between your ears and chin. You can either go for a short straight conventional bob cut or go for the unconventional bob cut aligned with your jaw, shorter from the back while 1 to 2 inch longer from the front below your ears. This creates a trendy style yet streamlines the bob cut.
It is perfect for the fall season because it keeps your hair in shape even during the windy weather. The short bob is an easily manageable hairstyle and has a go-to effect that many people prefer. There are different ways in which you can style your short bob.
Straighten your bob or Leave it Loose!
If you have frizzy or curly hair and like a sleek straightened short bob look, try the keratin treatment. Through this semi-permanent hair straightening treatment, you get manageable, straight, smooth and shiny hair for 4-6 months.
If you already have straight hair and want to add volume to your short bob, try adding loose beach curls through your top hair layer. This messy look gives a sexier touch to your look. For extra definition you can use a keratin hair spray along the ends.
Another way to manage your bob look is fringe bob. If you already have a bob cut, cutting a few more inches will freshen up your look. Comb your fringe as per your preferences to add distinctiveness to your style.
Plain black bob may not be what you are precisely looking for. Adding colorful hues to your hair is a great way to spice up your fall hairstyle game in 2019. This year it is more about natural, virgin hair tones, which is a move away from fashion 'done' shades.
The colors suitable for the short bob look are brown hues or dirty natural blond. Ombre blond is also a fantastic option. If you already have colored hair, it may become difficult to achieve that natural virgin hair look again; so, visit a salon with pictures of the look that you want to achieve. Ask the hairstylist to add gloss and shine as well. The best way is to get keratin conditioning treatment, which helps your hair recover from previous color damage and restore their shine.
Well, you have long hair, and you are not ready to give them up. Don't worry as these fall season hairstyle trends have something for you as well. There is no need to cut your lovely long hair to look trendy and stylish. Your retro style look can be styled to look chic and glamorous.
With falling waterfall bangs, you can wear a retro style look. Nothing can beat the classic retro bangs falling on either side of your face, like a waterfall. If you are undecided about how to style your long hair without compromising their length, then go for retro style falling waterfall bangs. This fringe is suitable for those with shoulder length hair and longer hair.
It is recommended that you experiment with waterfall bangs before you cut your hair into a full bang fringe. There are many different styling options which go perfectly well with waterfall bangs.
You can tie up your hair in a loose ponytail, leaving some strands out to accentuate your face or form a loose and untidy bun for a little classic queen touch. This fringe is a great way to transform and uplift your facial frame and look younger.
To keep your waterfall bangs manageable and frizz free, use keratin protein treatment to get the best results. It gives strength to your hair, promotes hair growth while making them smooth and shiny.
Keeping your natural hair color is beautiful with waterfall bangs if you are not much into dying your hair; however, adding a little color will undoubtedly give an exciting twist to your appearance.
Pastels and dark hues, especially brown, ash or burgundy, provide a ravishing look for your bangs while a blonde touch can add a flirtish flare to your overall look. You can also blend both the looks for a more dramatic and bold style that pushes the boundaries.
Have a single color with an average length and get it subtly low toned. This mix of dark and faded tones is enough to create a stunning look.
Are you bored of your monotonous straight hair, but still don't want to have tight curls every day? If this is the case, then the timeless beach curl style is for you. These are soft curly waves that flow down your shoulders. These are neither very tight curls nor loose enough to look straight.
The best thing about this style is its easy maintenance. You can tie them up in a high ponytail or leave them untamed. In both styles, beach curls look simply 'WOW.' Leave them long and laid back and sway this fall season!
However, if you want to give them a neat look, you may need little maintenance. If you have thin and curly hair, beach curls can provide a very untidy look, which you may not want. To keep them manageable, soft and falling, you can get the keratin protein treatment.
You can go for this treatment once in a month for shiny, manageable and lustrous beach curls throughout the month.
Be Fearless with Dirty Brunette!
Now coming to coloring your beach curls; a dirty brunette is perfect for spicing up your entire hairstyling game. It's a natural brunette shade that incorporates some dark blonde tones for a more neutral and smoky vibe. You can go for a hint of copper, auburn, or maroon strands to glam up your look.
As far as hair do's are concerned, keeping your hair neat in the front and a parted from the back is all you need to meet this season's hairdo trends. The credit for this hair-up goes to this year's catwalks and the wedding up-do of newlywed Duchess of Sussex.
The sleek up-do is the best way to reveal your facial features in a flattering manner. Create an effortless and carefree look with a loose bun or a ponytail, giving you a perfect look, which is neither too formal nor too casual. It offers you the best of both worlds.
To achieve these looks at your home, you only need a regular hairspray. Whatever style you adopt, just spray a little hair spray on your palm, rub your palms and run them over the sleek front part of your hair. It will help settle any flyaways in an effective manner. For creating a bun or a ponytail, use tongs and then use texture spray to get a finished look.
Big glamorous and shiny clips are all you need to glam up your hairstyling game. Zadig & Voltaire and Chanel and Max Mara runway show clearly show this year's hair accessory trend. They proved how these simple hair accessory pieces have the power to steal the show. The plus point with hair accessories is that you need not make elaborate hairstyles, the simple addition of hair accessories is enough to achieve the dream look.
There are many hair styling accessories which you can choose from to adorn your hair, such as flowers, glittery pins, big clips, headbands, rhinestone accessories, bow ties and so on. You can expand your collection based on the event or just to create a formal or casual day-to-day look.
If you are one of those who hates when your hair get in your face, then accessories are the best choice to keep them in control. Serving dual purpose, these accessories add a glamorous touch to your hairstyle and keep your hair away from the face.
Bonus tip: You can make your hairstyle charismatic with accessories and twisting and turning your hair while leaving their ends free and pin the hair accessories to the desired place. Finish off your hairstyle with hairspray to add more definition.
A relatively new trend has made its way into the hairstyle trends of 2019. Since famous celebrities, like Beyonce and Kylie Jenner, have declared their fondness for wigs, wearing wigs has become trendy these days.
For those who are more into experimenting with stylish looks, wigs are a perfect way to add some flair while keeping their hair shiny and healthy.
Wearing wigs is one of the old hair styling trends, but in the past people usually preferred to use natural looking hair wig pieces to conceal their real hair. Now it's not about looking natural, but bold and fearless. Wigs in unnatural shades, like pink, citrus, and pastels, etc. are reigning supreme with either sculptural, boxy or blunt cuts.
Invest in a few trendy good-quality natural human hair wigs to experiment with different looks without compromising your hair. Wear a different look every day to create your unique style statement.
The swept hairstyle is another hairstyle which has been given a lot of attention in the catwalks. And do you know why? Because it is utterly chic, stylish and perfect!
If you are not happy with your current state of hair, but not in the position to get a haircut, the change in the direction of your fringe or bangs can definitely help freshen up your look. There is no need for a visit to a hair stylist.
Just stand in front of your dresser and try sweeping your hair to the left or right side. Select the side which satisfies you. To further glam up the look, try twisting your hair from one side and pin them up on the other side using a suitable hair accessory. And you are ready to rock the party.
For a neater and cleaner look, you can use a mist hairspray for swept hair. You can even tie a side bun and leave some strands out for a formal look at work.
All these hot and stylish fall hair trends would surely help you up your style game in 2019. But don't forget to keep your hair healthy, growing and shiny because healthy hair can add something extra to any hairstyle. Oil your hair, have keratin protein treatment or use keratin shampoo with conditioner to maintain good hair health, volume, and shape.


Put as many bananas as you wish into your blender. Add the vanilla powder and water and blend until smooth. Put the banana "milk" into a pot and warm it up till it's nice and worm to touch (not hot). Put the milk into a bowl and add finely chopped celery and blueberries. Enjoy.
This soup is filling and comforting and satisfies me for longer when it's warm. It's an excellent source of good sugars but also many minerals from celery and blueberries... It's also an excellent breakfast or supper if you prefer.
I hope you'll try this recipe and let me know what do you think about it.

yet, what is diversity ? in its simplest definition, we understand it to be "difference"
where does this difference spring from and how does it affect us ?
if we believe in a concept of God, we will say everything comes from God... so far, so good.
here's where it seems to fall apart, if everything comes from god, it then that same "everything" must be pervaded by the very same god - just as a gold bracelet is pervaded by the essence of gold - hence, what makes us see the diversity and not the the god in all ?
i look at me, i see my fingers, toes, arms, legs - all look so different ... where within this mass do i not exist ? with what part of myself am i comfortable axing off ? none ! why ? because i feel, i KNOW, it's all part of me ... i encompass it all - nothing is superfluous.
yet, we are unable to extend this feeling outward and recognize Him in every aspect of creation, including ourself !
We pray, then we so easily harm ( with both deed and speech ) an expression of the very entity we offer oblations to .. how hypocritical and utterly foolish.
diversity is word without substance - it is an absurd concept. we see it only because our vision is flawed.
the words hypocritical and utterly foolish are unwarranted...if the writer's perception is "only He is" then such words become all the more redundant.
Diversity is God's magic..let's enjoy everybit of it : a million times more as we entertain ourselves with David Copperfield's illusions.

Few things in this world have gotten cooler with age than the Stratocaster guitar. Born in the '50s, they became even cooler after years of use (and abuse) on the road; morphing over time to look appealingly battered and feel even better than when they were brand-new. Fender's maple-fingerboard Road Worn '50s Stratocaster delivers that aged look and feel - built to look, sound and feel like it has more than just a few miles on it. Designed with 1950s specs, including a nitrocellulose-lacquer finish, and supercharged with Tex-Mex pickups and 6105 frets.


The incident occurred along the Oyo-Ibadan Express road. The Hilux van, with code No. 1139(3) was reported to have had a fatal collision with a Nissan Micra, with registration No. Lagos KSF 831.
According to Eyewitness, scores of sympathisers besieged the scene immediately.
Spokesperson of the FRSC in the state, Mr. Oluwaseun Onijala confirmed the incident. Onijala, who is yet to send full details of the incident to our correspondent, however described it as unfortunate.
The FRSC spokesman said the incident is not only "pathetic but unfortunate". Onijala added that "the commission is currently investigating the matter" to ascertain what happened.

Could the Every Student Succeeds Act Break the Link Between Poverty and Bad S...
Could the Every Student Succeeds Act Break the Link Between Poverty and Bad School Ratings?
By Matt Barnum
School accountability systems are supposed to measure the quality of a given school; instead, it looks like they are, in many cases, measuring the poverty rate of a school's students, according to a review of school evaluations in several states.
Take North Carolina, where schools with high numbers of low-income students were 50 times more likely to get an F letter grade than schools with low poverty rates.

Or look at Pennsylvania.

Or Ohio.

Or Florida.

As states work to design new accountability systems under the Every Student Succeeds Act, these patterns are likely to persist, at least to an extent. While some argue that focusing attention and interventions on high-poverty schools makes sense, others worry that maintaining such a relationship risks punishing the wrong schools and deterring teachers from working in low-income areas.
Linking performance to poverty has risks
The first reaction when looking at this tight association might be that low-income areas simply have significantly worse schools, and that their worse grades reflect that reality.
While there is likely something to that, measures of inequity in teacher quality between schools show that it is actually smaller than widely perceived and is unlikely to explain all or most of the achievement gap between affluent and lower-income students. Large inequities are evident before students even begin school.
One reason that measures of school performance are so highly correlated with poverty is that a common metric is the proportion of students who are proficient on state exams, meaning whether a student meets or exceeds a certain score seen as demonstrating knowledge or skills relevant to his or her grade. Student proficiency is itself closely tied to income.
Researchers generally caution against judging a school by the number of students who score proficient. If the goal is to isolate a school's impact on student test scores, complicated growth models that measure how much individual students improve from year to year and take into consideration demographics like poverty are preferable, although still imperfect. Progress measures are much less strongly linked to rates of poverty.
To Cory Koedel, an education researcher at the University of Missouri, emphasizing absolute performance measures, like proficiency, risks painting an inaccurate picture of how schools are doing, lumping all low-income schools into the same category.
"There's huge variation in the growth that kids achieve even among all high-poverty schools," said Koedel, who studied schools in Missouri. Saying that the vast majority of poor schools are bad masks that, he argues.
"We aren't sending the right signals to different educational actors about what's working and what's not because we're just basically spitting back to them the poverty of their kids," he said.
Koedel also said there's another downside: making it less desirable to work in low-income schools. Such schools often have a hard time getting and keeping good teachers, and other research shows that when schools are labeled "failing," effective teachers are likely to leave.
"No one wants to go work in a place where you're told you're not doing well," he said. "That is a part of your job satisfaction, and it wears on you."
Focusing on growth and the fear of low expectations
Some groups defend the use of proficiency and prioritize measures that are correlated with student poverty.
"We know that without honest proficiency data from an aligned assessment — the single best indicator for measuring college- and career-readiness — school accountability as a lever for excellence and equitable improvement is dramatically undermined," read a report from the civil rights and education group Education Trust–MidWest in response to Michigan's draft accountability plan, which includes both measures of achievement and progress.
The group is also critical of the choice to use a sophisticated growth model that compares how much students improve relative to peers who start out at the same achievement level.
"Comparisons to peers won't reveal whether that student will one day meet grade-level standards," the report says. "This risks setting lower expectations for students of color and low-income students, and does not incentivize schools to accelerate learning for historically underserved student groups."
It's not clear whether this is true, though.
One research paper compared different accountability systems: a "fixed" approach, where the goal is a set proficiency standard, such as in No Child Left Behind, versus a growth approach based on how individual students improve over time. Using data from North Carolina, the research showed that students generally did better when their schools were held accountable for students' progress rather than their absolute achievement. Some studies have found that focusing on proficiency incentivizes teachers to pay less attention to students who start far below the standard.
Still, other research has found that No Child Left Behind — which emphasized proficiency — led to meaningful gains in student achievement, particularly in math, and that when labeled as failing, schools generally improve.
Natasha Ushomirsky, director of K-12 policy for Education Trust's national office, said growth should be measured by looking at whether students are on track to meet proficiency.
"There are ways to measure growth that do measure progress towards a particular expectation," she said.
Some states have used "growth to proficiency" — meaning whether students who start out behind are improving at a fast enough rate to eventually become proficient.
But this approach has many of the same disadvantages as traditional proficiency models: It doesn't isolate schools' performance, and those serving many students who start out further behind will be at an inherent disadvantage.
"As an accountability metric, growth-to-proficiency is a terrible idea for the same reason that achievement-level metrics are a bad idea — it is just about poverty," said Koedel .
The intervention should dictate the measure
The way schools should be identified as low-performing may depend on what happens to those schools.
"You have to think about how you are using [a given] measure," said Anne Hyslop, who previously worked at the U.S. Department of Education and is now at Chiefs for Change, a group of district and state school leaders who back choice and accountability policies. "I think the use of any measure in part dictates what level of correlation [with student poverty] we should be worried about."
Ushomirsky agrees that there shouldn't be one approach applied to all schools deemed low-performing. "There's a real opportunity under ESSA to tailor interventions to the needs of a particular school," she said.
Hyslop argues that there should be different responses based on how much improvement a school's students are making.
"In the high-growth school, you want to make sure that that school is fully resourced, fully staffed to continue and even expand the great work they are already doing," she said. "With the school that is both low-growth and low [proficiency], that is where some of the more severe or intense interventions need to occur, because the conditions for catching up may not even be in place yet."
Hyslop says that states should put most of their energy into intervening in and improving schools whose students have made little progress and are low-achieving.
Research on school closures — the most extreme form of sanction against a school — provides some support for this view. A study in Louisiana found that when low-growth schools in New Orleans were closed and replaced with high-growth schools, student achievement jumped substantially; less discriminate school closures in Baton Rouge actually harmed students.
Why ESSA ratings may maintain the poverty link
Opinions vary on how states should design accountability systems under ESSA and how much weight to give to progress versus proficiency. The law requires states to consider proficiency, and it gives them the option to consider growth. Schools also have to use the progress of students learning English and graduation rates for high schools.
States also need to a consider a "fifth indicator" of their choosing, such as chronic absenteeism. The bottom 5 percent of schools must be identified and intervened in each year, but there is significant discretion in what that intervention will look like and how much weight is given to each metric (though academic measures must receive "much greater" consideration than the fifth indicator).
Naturally, there is a range of views on how best to balance the different metrics.
On the issue of growth versus achievement, Hyslop would give equal weight to each, with perhaps a greater emphasis on growth. Koedel says he would first rate all schools based on growth, but then would exempt schools with very high proficiency, his logic being that schools with very high achievement might reasonably focus on areas other than test score improvement.
At least according to their draft plans, many states seem to be more or less following Hyslop's advice. States including Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, and Montana plan to weight student progress equally to or even greater than proficiency.
This means that there would still be some correlation between student poverty and accountability, but less so than in a system that solely relies on absolute performance.
On the other hand, the measures beyond test scores — such as high school graduation and progress of students learning English — are likely to be associated with poverty. Chronic absenteeism, a metric many states are considering, is associated with family income in Massachusetts and Washington state, but not Texas, according to data provided to The 74. States could adjust such measures for poverty, but few, if any, appear to be planning to do so yet.
On top of that, some state plans that prioritize growth in elementary and middle school don't include it at all in high school, because it is more difficult to measure growth since standardized tests are less frequent.
For better or worse, the highest-poverty schools will likely continue to be at the greatest risk of being labeled failing under ESSA, though perhaps to a smaller extent than under No Child Left Behind.

Van Gaal reveals reason for Man United's latest loss
Having spent over £100 million in the transfer market this summer and even more than that in the first 12 months of his tenure as the manager of Manchester United, you might be surprised to hear that our veteran player Ashley Young was the difference between victory and defeat for Louis van Gaal.
And to be fair to the Dutchman, even though I do not really feel like being fair to him at the minute, he did not blame our latest lamentable loss on Young. Not directly anyway, but he did blame the United defence and their failure to cope with the two set pieces that Bournemouth scored from, as his post match interview on Sky Sports explained.
Van Gaal said, "Again, two set pieces like against Wolfsburg. That's not normal for us because we gave a lot of attention to all the organisation but they had a few variations and they did it very well, I have to say, but still it can't be, I believe.
"I thought in the first half we played well, we created chances, scored a goal and I had the feeling that we could win in the second half. And then again a set play and then you are behind in the score and it is very difficult to have a revival, I think.
"The players did everything, but I have to also say Bournemouth are pressing on the ball in a fantastic way and that's why it makes it more difficult to get the equaliser or to create chances. But still we had the chances also in the second half."
The big problem for United was pretty clear when the boss put his team sheet in yesterday, with young and inexperienced United players Borthwick/Jackson and Varela starting in the full back positions and with Daley Blind and McNair in the middle.
It was even stranger when you saw that we had Phil Jones and Ashely Young on the bench. While we knew that Jones was just back from injury and probably not match fit, many fans were left wondering why the manager had not selected the experienced Young in his back line.
The reason was that Young himself was not fit, further weakening our injury ravaged defensive options. So there you have it United fans!

One thought on "Van Gaal reveals reason for Man United's latest loss"
victor zariro says:
Van gaal must change the formation to our usual 4 4 2 for someone to partner with Martial on front he needs someone close to him. If we want more goal he must work together with Depay and Young at the left wing your see more goal coming

Q: Convert date string into date time How could I convert a string in the format    (Examples are shown below) into a DateTime object. I have tried several things in attempt to convert this however, I have not been able to get it to work.
Examples of strings in the format:
24 Jul 2014
01 May 1988

A: From the first Google's "C# DateTime parse" result:
string MyString = "24 Jul 2014";
DateTime MyDateTime = DateTime.Parse(MyString);
Console.WriteLine(MyDateTime); //24/07/2014 00:00:00

A: The DateTime.Parse method will parse most dates right out of the box:
DateTime d = DateTime.Parse("01 May 1988");

If the date format can be ambiguous, you can specify which culture settings to use:
DateTime d = DateTime.Parse("01 May 1988", new CultureInfo("en-GB"));

For some unusual formats you can use the DateTime.ParseExact method to parse a specific format:
DateTime d = DateTime.ParseExact("01 May 1988", "dd MMM yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

Hart of Dixie Season Finale Recap: "The Big Day"
Mandy Treccia @SourceMandy May 17, 2012 / 1:20 AM
The season finale of Hart of Dixie, "The Big Day," centered on Lemon and George's wedding day and the show's writer and producer promised the viewers that there would be a lot of big things happening in the episode.
The episode definitely provided some big shakeups that will affect the characters in season two. (Cheers to the CW for renewing this show! As much as I complain, I would have missed it). Anyway, the episode started with what was obviously a dream sequence. George was marrying Lemon, but he was also marrying Zoe. Then Lavon showed up and I guess it was going to be a group event. (Do they allow that in Alabama)? George woke up freaking out over the weirdness and then Lemon called with some last minute items that she needed him to take care of. George said he was excited about getting married, but the look on his face seemed more like he was contemplating throwing up.
As mayor, Lavon was overseeing wedding preparations in the town square, which was obviously awkward since he had an affair with the bride and the groom punched him a few episodes ago. Tom warned Lavon that his knee was twitching and that was basically the first sign that a massive storm was about to blow into town. (Scoff if you will, but the bone I broke in my finger when I was 12 still aches every time there's going to be a thunderstorm). But it wasn't just Tom's knee, something was up with the animals and Lavon told George that they had to postpone the wedding. George wasn't buying it and accused Lavon of trying to ruin his big day. Lavon tried to reason with him and when that didn't work, he used his authority as mayor to revoke the wedding permit. George showed up furious, but then, as predicted, the massive storm blew in so he couldn't really fault Lavon for that.
Lemon wasn't exactly having the best wedding morning either. She woke up with a blemish on her chin and a houseful of bridesmaids who were more interested in talking about Annabeth's newly single status than Lemon's wedding. The women suggested Annabeth get up close and personal with Lavon and even Magnolia had a raunchy (hilarious) comment to add to Lemon's nightmare. Then the unthinkable happened and someone spilled coffee on Lemon's wedding dress. She barely had time to freak out about that before she was at the window screaming as lightning flashed through the sky.
Meanwhile, Zoe had her own coffee incident when her new coffeemaker shorted out the fuse box she shares with Wade. He was not happy with her and her attempts to get him to forgive her were not well received. Wade told her that he hated her and dumped out the coffee she'd given him. (Ouch, but a deserved ouch. Zoe has been terrible to Wade). Zoe had a moment with George before the wedding plans went crazy and she picked up on his nerves. Lavon managed to talk her down and convinced her to leave town until the wedding was over to make sure she didn't do something insane like object. Zoe took his advice and his car, but her plans changed when Lavon called her and asked her to pick up Wade, whose car had broken down outside of town.
Wade was less than thrilled to see Zoe despite her singing in an effort to make him smile. He got in the car with her, but the storm forced them off the road and they took shelter in a barn with some goats. (I'm not going to go on and on about Wade in his rain soaked white shirt. But go ahead and picture it). Zoe's shirt was soaked too and when Wade told her that he could see through it, she asked if that would help make things better and he said no. Zoe decided to go back to the car to get some candy and in the process let a baby goat escape from the barn into the storm. Wade was not impressed and ordered her to sit there silently, but Zoe told him that she knew he liked her. Wade walked out on her.
Zoe assumed Wade had left her there, but he returned to give her a piece of his mind. He told her that he was just confused and the only reason he'd thought he'd had feelings for her was because she had refused to have sex with him. Zoe thought that was ridiculous, but Wade told her they needed to get the sexual tension out. Zoe was considering it and the two nearly kissed when they heard the goat outside. The moment was broken and they headed into the rain to rescue the baby goat from a barbed wire pen it gotten trapped in. Zoe's shoulder got cut on the wire and Wade took off his shirt (win!) to help lift up the wire. They brought the goat back to the barn and Wade patched up Zoe's shoulder.
Back in Bluebell, Lavon reminded George that he was the mayor and George was the town lawyer and they were going to be dealing with each other for the rest of their lives, so they needed to work together. George accepted this, shaking Lavon's hand and agreeing to move the wedding to the old firehouse. The entire town showed up to help with the wedding preparations and it was one of those moments that make this show so much fun. But the firehouse wasn't holding up well in the storm and the tables were ruined and then the cake and George was slowly melting down. Lavon had let it slip that Zoe was staying in Bluebell and George ended up in the rain in his tux, insisting that he and Lemon had to get married that day. Lavon, being the most awesome person ever, actually offered George comfort as he broke down and said he wished someone had told him sooner that Zoe was staying because that changed things.
Lemon and Annabeth had a long talk and it was a sweet friendship moment for them. They were both in different places, but they wanted the best for each other. (Can I request Annabeth for series regular next season, please)? Lemon was having some last minute jitters about her dress, but Brick showed up and the two had an awesome moment where he assured his daughter that she was a beautiful bride and they agreed that it was fine that her mother wasn't there to see it because they were both better off without her. (Team Breeland)!
In the barn, Zoe finally admitted that she'd thought about what it would be like to have sex with Wade, but she didn't see the point since they were so different. Wade laughed and told her that he wasn't asking her to marry him, but there was something between them that they needed to explore. Zoe was finally onboard and they shared a kiss, just as a cop showed up to drive them back to town. (Curses)! But Wade and Zoe exchanged some cute looks and smiles the entire way home and then they retreated to their separate houses. Wade was getting ready for the wedding (Wade in a suit, people!) and Zoe decided to blow the fuse on purpose by turning on her coffeemaker again. This time, instead of shouting, Wade had a big smile on his face when the lights went out at his place.
As Lemon and Brick prepared to leave for the firehouse, George showed up, asking for a moment with his fiancée. He told Lemon that he's loved her for a long time, but when he went to New York, something inside him changed and he saw a different life. He pointed out that she turned to Lavon and he turned to Zoe and he can't marry her if he's falling in love with someone else. Lemon's response was to punch him in the face and it was awesome. (Team Lemon)!
Wade showed up on Zoe's doorstep in his suit and the two did not hesitate to promptly remove it as they started kissing and in an incredibly hot scene that had all the fangirls falling on the floor, Wade pinned Zoe up against the wall and then they were in her bed and then they were on the floor…you get my drift, I'm sure. It was awesome. Afterward, the two were cuddling and being adorable and Wade suggested they get some food and do it again. But then there was a knock on the door and guess what? It was George.
He'd come to tell Zoe that he had feelings for her and he'd left Lemon and then he kissed her and promised to call her the next day since they had a lot to talk about. Zoe basically said nothing and stood there staring until George left. She still looked shell shocked when she went back to her bedroom where Wade was lying in her bed and greeted her with a smile and a simple, "hey" while Zoe stood there looking uncertain and confused.
I can't say I loved the ending, but I wasn't surprised by it. If I were Zoe, I wouldn't have answered the door in the first place, but I digress. We've got several season finale cliffhangers on our hands. What's Zoe going to do next? How will Wade react when he finds out it was George at the door? How's George going to react when he finds out about Zoe and Wade? What's Lemon going to do next? Is there hope for Lemon and Lavon? Can Jesse come back even though Justin Hartley has his own show now? So many questions and now we have several months of waiting for answers.
Did you like the finale? What would you like to see next? Sound off below.

Buendia and Stiepermann react to Hull victory
Emi Buendia and Marco Stiepermann agreed Norwich City's 3-2 victory over Hull City on Wednesday night should have been more comfortable.
In a dominant display, City scored three times but conceded late in each half to ensure a nervy evening at Carrow Road.
Despite the win, the goalscoring duo admitted they should have scored more than the three on the evening.
Buendia, who scored twice, said: "Maybe, we should have scored more goals, but it was good and a big win in the end.
"I am really happy because I scored again, two goals. Another win and we played very well."
Stiepermann, who got the ball rolling with a superb opener, added: "We're really happy about tonight but it was really unnecessary to have the situation today because it was a really good performance from all of us.
"But there are small things that can decide a game and it was unnecessary to concede two goals. At the end it was an exciting game!"
The pick of the goals was Buendia's second and City's third - an exquisite one-two between Buendia and Teemu Pukki allowed the Argentinian to roll the ball under Hull 'keeper David Marshall on the hour mark.
The post-match comments were all about the initial flick from Buendia: "I tried and it was fantastic with Teemu. It was a very good assist from him and I scored.
Stiepermann said: "I bet I won't try this. It looked so easy when he was doing that and it was fantastic for everyone to see."
Looking forward, the pair said City should relish the challenges ahead, with a trip to Rotherham coming up first on Saturday.
"I think we always just look from game to game," said Stiepermann.
"We've won the last five games now and that's fantastic. Rotherham is waiting and that will be a really tough game and then we have two weeks of the international break to train and then Boro is waiting.
"But now, we just focus on Rotherham."
Buendia added: "There is no pressure. We have to enjoy this situation. It's really good for us and important to enjoy."

Angry Birds Bar is a popular bar located in the heart of the Cambodian capital city. I've talked about hostess bars in Cambodia nearly two years ago in a post on Phnom Penh. Most of the bars operate on a similar model to the hostess bars of Ho Chi Minh City though in Phnom Penh the prices are generally more reasonable, the staff is usually a lot more laid back and friendly and the local police seem to have no problems.
Angry Birds is easy to find. Located on Street 130 two blocks from the well known riverside the bar is fronted with a large illuminated sign bearing images of its namesakes. From what I gather the bar was started by an Australian guy who previously set up the popular Loco Bar which is located just down the street. While the bundles of bars on streets 104 and 136 seem to get the most attention there are plenty of other bars around town including the aforementioned.
With so many bars around town it can be hard to gain notoriety. That's one reason I don't normally post reviews of individual hostess bars. An even bigger reason is that they seem to come and go from one day to the next. Staff, ownership and even a bar's name or location can quickly change in this game and I'm not interested in writing about a place as if it was just a figment of my imagination. That doesn't seem likely with Angry Birds as it has been going strong for a while just like Loco Bar which would make sense if what I've heard about the origins of both is true. Hence this review.
Angry Birds bar is one of the cleanest bars around town. I don't usually have a problem wetting my bill in a dive if the quality is otherwise good but it is of course preferable to mingle with ladies in a well maintained pub than one that smells like a toilet. Speaking of the toilet the management at Angry Birds does a good job there too. I used the facilities once and was surprised that they are superior to what one would find in many regular bars in the US let alone some of the shady local nightlife spots nearby. This general cleanliness also bodes well for the glassware and general hygiene.
A computer at the end of the bar is hooked up to a professional sound system. A steady stream of rock and easy listening music from the 60's, 70's and 80's is played at a very reasonable level throughout the night. This is great on the one hand since it makes it easy to converse without screaming. Even without music that can be tough with people who are native speakers of very different languages. On the other hand the reasonable volume and retro music selection can keep things a bit calm. While the Rolling Stones might be right up the alley of most of the punters who visit the bar the women working there aren't as likely to be enthused by music that was released before their parents were born. Some of the other bars around town play more current club style music and that can really get the gals going wild. I've never seen anything that compares to go go bars in countries like Thailand but they can definitely get into the groove. Different people would have different opinions on which set up is superior though I have room for both on my card.
Drinks at Angry Birds are reasonably priced especially when compared to similar bars in some other countries. There are frequent discounts and specials for customers though some drinks may be fifty cents more expensive than they are at other local bars. I don't imagine this is a problem for most and I believe this may even mean that ladies get a little more money out of every drink a customer buys for them.
Of course all of the above mentioned items are secondary to the real attraction at this bar or any bar like it: the ladies. It's impossible to talk about the staff of a place like this as if it was set in stone. There is turn over at any girly bar which is attributable to a number of factors. Ladies go back to their provinces, they meet boyfriends, they get married, they follow friends to other bars and they do other things too. Because of that I can only give my general impressions.
There are probably two dozen women working at Angry Birds bars. A few work behind the bar as cashiers or bar tenders though most of them seem to mingle quite a bit with the customers and will even come around the bar to share a drink or play a game. The other women working are all very friendly and pleasant. Most are generally attractive though there are some older and larger ladies around. Since different guys have different tastes there's probably something for everyone. There are a few pretty gals around and even one or two very pretty women though based on my tastes I'd like to see a few more. I understand that staffing is probably not an easy task and there are definitely places nearby that fare dreadfully worse in this area but based on my experience I think it is possible to step things up a bit even if they are already decent. I've wondered into hostess bars on a few lucky nights and encountered a half dozen or more real beauties. It's not an every day occurrence but it does happen and it proves that it is possible.
All in all Angry Birds is a well run ship. Considering its location and focus it's only real fair to compare it to other hostess bars in Phnom Penh. Because of that I give the place an above average three stars though on a good night it would probably merit three-and-a-half. If there was an overabundance of attractive ladies on hand at all times I'd probably give it another star since I really have no problems with the place otherwise. Conversely if it were in a city like Bangkok with so much adult entertainment available I'd probably take away a half of a star. It's all relative.
Angry Birds Bar, #59 Street 130, Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Open seven days a week 7 pm – 2 am. Website: http://www.angrybirdsbar.com Map on website.
Thank you for your excellent and fair-minded review. It's always useful and interesting getting genuine customer feedback.
You're quite right about the turnover in staff. At the moment we have some real beauties and the rest are all pretty good as well. But a couple leave each month and others arrive, so there are always new girls to look at each month. You're also right about the range of tastes that customers have, we have some guys coming in who specifically ask to see ladies over 35 – they feel awkward with 20 year old girls.
The only point I take issue with in your review is about our drink prices. We monitor other bar prices and always make sure we are about the same or even slightly cheaper in some cases. And all our mixers are free – no 50 cent charge for that splash of coke in your whisky that some bars charge. Our ladydrinks are $3.50, which is fairly standard in Phnom Penh now.
We look forward to seeing any rockitreports readers at Angry Birds Bar. First drink is free if you mention that you read this bar review on rockitreports.
Hi William. Thanks for commenting. Immediately before visiting Angry Birds I stopped at another bar where lady drinks were a little cheaper. That's what prompted me to include that info in the report. I agree that the trend does seem to be toward the 3.50 mark especially at the better and more modern bars. Maybe I'm stuck in the past but I remember a more common lower rate being the norm at some point. Cheers.
Yes, but few of the women are barfineable at this bar. The time I was there, early Oct. 2015, only one older women was, and she apologized that she couldn't due to mens. not that I would have taken her. There were about 6 other women working in the bar, all said they never go out.
One other girl said 'you can still buy drinks for lady you like,' I looked a bit bewildered at that blatant drink hustling and chuckled which seemed to annoy them. Paid for my drink and left, not to return in this life.
I don't doubt what you say at all but this is common of hostess bars in Phnom Penh with few exceptions. Hostess bars are not go go bars. They are places guys go to drink and chat with women. In same cases women will go out with customers. In others they wont. In some cases women move in with customers and become their girlfriends. In other cases the women are already married and have a family at home. Some of the women are virgins. A particular woman might refuse every guy who asks her out for a month only to go out with another guy later. Some women want to get to know a guy over several meetings before she will agree to go out with him. That's the way these kinds of places work. Some hostess bars like Shanghai and Mao's Bar don't even have barfines because the women don't leave with customers though some will arrange to meet them after work. Cyrcee is probably the only bar where every woman will go out with any guy that asks but they are looking for short time sessions. Most of the women in Island Bar will go out with most of the guys that ask them. City Bar is similar. Guys looking for immediate gratification usually go to these "sure thing" places or for even less hassle one of the many massage centers around the city where the women are interested in earning money in exchange for sexual services rather that chatting or drinking. Cheers.
customers but they charge 50 usd for a ST and 70 for a LT in general.
Have you seen a bar fine there? The ownership and management has gone through a lot of changes so I guess it's possible. Historically it closed a little earlier than other bars and guys who liked a woman there had to arrange to meet them after work. Cheers.
As of Feb 1 2017, I asked a couple girls at Angry Birds and none seem to be able to be barfined. And only a handful speaks English. Either way, I had fun with 4 ladies, had 3 mixed drinks and bought two drinks per lady. Still ended up spending less than $50 including tip.
Cambodia isn't like Thailand or some other places. A lot of women will say they do not do barfines if they are asked directly or asked by someone they don't know or aren't interested in. Some women really don't do barfines especially in certain bars. But a lot of women do in the right scenario. Cheers.
Previous comments are outdated. As of July 2017, I can confirm that several women at Angry Birds are barfineable. Possibly all of them.
They may not go with anyone anytime, but that's just the way hostess bars work.
Thanks for the comment. At any hostess bar in Phnom Penh things can vary depending on the staff and customers and any other number of circumstances. Cheers.

The upcoming South Park game was due to release on December 6 but Ubisoft have announced that the game will now release in Q1 2017.
"The development team wants to make sure the game experience meets the high expectations of fans and the additional time will help them achieve this goal," Ubisoft have said.
This slight delay will hopefully be enough time for the South Park creators to make the perfect game that they want.


Pocket money for kids worldwide or hated Sunday morning chore, keeping your car clean can be a complete pain, especially at certain times of the year.
Imagine never having to clean your car. Behold the self-cleaning Nissan LEAF!
So imagine what it would be like to own a car which never, ever required cleaning? A car which kept itself clean and always looked fresh and presentable, regardless of the weather, where it had been, or what time of year it was?
Sound good? Then you'll want Nissan's latest creation, a self-cleaning Nissan LEAF.
Currently a one-off concept car, Nissan's special all-white squeaky-clean electric car is painted with a special type of paint which is both superhydrophobic and oleophobic. In other words, it repels both water and oils, leaving a pristine finish, no matter what the weather.
Developed by chemical company UltraTech International Inc., the technology — called Ultra-Ever Dry® — has been engineered to create a barrier between the actual paint and the outside world, ensuring the car never gets dirty.
"This is one LEAF that never has to stop at gas stations – not even for a car wash," quipped Pierre Loing, vice president of product planning for Nissan North America.
The special paint repels both water and oils.
While the while idea of a self-cleaning car may seem a little over-the-top for most car buyers, there is some logicality in this particular development. By designing cars which don't need cleaning, automakers could save communities billions of gallons of water every year from being wasted, while we'd all get our Sunday mornings back.
Currently undergoing technical evaluation in the UK at Nissan's European Technical Centre, Nissan says the special paint has been tested in a variety of conditions, including frost, rain, sleet, road spray and standing water, describing the paint's performance as 'responding well' to all testing thus far.
Sadly, Nissan says it isn't about to offer the self-cleaning paint as standard on any of its cars, electric or otherwise. It is however considering adding the paint finish as an optional extra for customers at some point in the future.
As for the children? We think it's time to start thinking of other ways they can earn their weekly allowance, don't you?


Following its successful renewal in 2017, Bournemouth Town Centre BID takes stock of its work over the past year and looks ahead to future plans at its Annual General Meeting.
From Lansdowne's hugely popular Metropole Market to the stunning spectacle of the Upside-Down House at the Triangle, it has been a year of innovation and inspiration for Bournemouth's Town Centre Business Improvement District (BID), the Annual General Meeting heard.
Open to all levy payers, the AGM at Bournemouth Library on Wednesday, November 14, provided an opportunity to review the BID's wide-ranging activities and projects over the last year, all aimed at supporting the growth of local businesses, and making the town centre an ever more inviting prospect for visitors and investors. The BID was also pleased to welcome two new board directors: David Squire from Yellow Buses and Ian Saul from Naked Coffee.
Major projects included working with the UK's first 'upside-down house' attraction in the Triangle, and the renewal of the incredibly popular Metropole Market at Holdenhurst Road in Lansdowne, which has been recognised with a Place Management Award nomination in the National BID Awards 2018.
Another innovation this year has been the bringing together of new 'Business Quarters' – specific sub-sectors within the town centre which so far include the Lansdowne Quarter, the Triangle Quarter, the Westover Quarter, the Richmond Quarter and the Horseshoe Quarter. Local groups at the helm are providing new opportunities for businesses to shape and improve their trading environment while developing and defining their Business Quarter's unique character.
And a programme of seminars, free of charge to levy payers, covering topics such as marketing, networking and making the most of Christmas, have brought further tangible benefits to businesses.
Looking ahead, the BID continues to work towards its key objectives – increasing visitor numbers, supporting businesses to grow, reducing the number of empty shops and developing the unique identity of different areas within the BID area.
A four-pronged approach encompasses organising events and festivals, effective marketing and promotion, keeping the town centre safe and secure, including with the popular ranger service, and making sure it's 'clean and green,' with enhanced litter cleaning among a raft of initiatives ensuring the town centre always looks its best.
"We are now part way through year two of our second five-year term, having been voted in again by town centre businesses in 2017, and it is exciting to see so many of the ideas and innovations set out to our levy payers now coming to fruition.

Recently I have endured unprecedented pain and agony, and undergone profound self-reflection and introspection. I feel ashamed and guilty for what I did, and here, I offer my sincere apology to everyone.
For a long period of time, I have not upheld the responsibility of safeguarding the interests of my country and our society against my personal interests. I feel ashamed that I committed tax evasion in "Unbreakable Spirit" and other projects by taking advantage of "split contracts." Throughout these days of my cooperation with the taxation authorities' investigation of my accounts as well as my company's, I have realized that, as a public figure, I should've observed the law, setting a good example for society and the industry. I shouldn't have lost my ability to govern myself in the face of economic interests, leading myself to break the law. Here I sincerely apologize to society, friends who care about me, the public and the taxation authorities.
I completely accept the penalties given by the taxation authorities after their thorough investigation. I will follow the final order given by the taxation authorities and try my best to overcome all difficulties and raise funds to pay back the taxes and fines.
I have been an art lover since I was a child, and I'm also fortunate to have run into the rise of the film and television industries. Thanks to guidance from veterans as well as love from the audience, together with my own hard work, I have achieved a bit of success in my career. As an actor, I take pride in showcasing our country's culture on the global stage, and I do my best to be in the forefront of this. My success owes to the support from my country and the people. Without the great policies of the Party and the state, and without the love of the people, there would have been no Fan Bingbing.

Transcript: Emanuel asked Blagojevich for favor
In a secretly recorded phone call, the FBI captured Rahm Emanuel asking then-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich to consider appointing his choice as his successor in Congress when he left to become President Barack Obama's chief of staff, according to a transcript Blagojevich's attorneys filed at his corruption retrial Tuesday.
CHICAGO – In a secretly recorded phone call, the FBI captured Rahm Emanuel asking then-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich to consider appointing his choice as his successor in Congress when he left to become President Barack Obama's chief of staff, according to a transcript Blagojevich's attorneys filed at his corruption retrial Tuesday.
On the call in November 2008, Emanuel tells Blagojevich that he is looking into the legality of such an appointment. And he raises the name of a county official as a potential appointee because the man is only interested in the seat for one or two terms and then "wants to go to the cabinet."
"I am happy to appoint your guy," Blagojevich tells Emanuel on the call, according to the transcript submitted by the Blagojevich attorneys. "If I can do it, I'll do it."
"This is between you and I ...," Emanuel tells Blagojevich. "I will not forget this."
Emanuel is not accused of wrongdoing. Asked earlier Tuesday about testimony at Blagojevich's trial regarding the conversation, he said he answered all questions lawyers thought necessary when he testified for about five minutes last month. His spokeswoman echoed that comment later in the day.
The transcript, which had not been released publicly before, was part of a motion filed by Blagojevich's attorneys as they sought to clarify testimony on Monday in which prosecutors asked Blagojevich to confirm that Emanuel had asked for the favor and that the then-governor's aides had told him it was unconstitutional.
The attorneys argued Blagojevich was not trying to do anything wrong and that he told Emanuel a special election was required.
Judge James Zagel rejected their request to have a tape of the conversation read to jurors in court, but defense attorneys filed the motion later in the day. It is not clear whether it is a full transcript of the conversation.
The conversation was just one of hundreds of Blagojevich calls captured by FBI wiretaps — secret recordings that have underpinned the government's case against the impeached Illinois governor. Some of the tapes have become public only after being approved by the judge as evidence in the trial.
Christine Mather, a spokeswoman for Emanuel, who is now Chicago's mayor, did not respond directly to questions about the conversation, referring to his earlier comment.
In a book published after his arrest in December 2008, Blagojevich claimed that Emanuel wanted him to appoint a "placeholder" who would step aside later so Emanuel could win the seat back when he was done as chief of staff.
Blagojevich is charged with 20 counts of corruption in his retrial. Last year, a jury deadlocked on 23 of 24 charges against him in the first trial and convicted him on one count of lying to the FBI. On Tuesday, he ended seven days of testimony in which prosecutors sought to portray him as a serial liar.
The transcript released Tuesday is the first time some of Emanuel's own words were made public regarding his 2008 conversation with Blagojevich.
In the conversation, according to the transcript filed in the motion, Emanuel tells Blagojevich the appointment would give a successor an advantage in winning the seat in an eventual special election and that he wanted someone who didn't want the job in Congress as a "lifetime commitment."
Emanuel tells Blagojevich that Forrest Claypool, then a county official, was interested in the congressional seat for "like one term or two max." Emanuel recently named Claypool to head the Chicago Transit Authority, which oversees one of largest subway and bus networks in the nation.
A CTA spokeswoman said Tuesday that Claypool had no comment.
In the transcript, Blagojevich seems eager to help Emanuel.
"That's a good play," he says. "So how can I help? ... What can I do?"
Blagojevich says his lawyers tell him there's no way to make an appointment to the seat, that a special election would have to be held.
Emanuel responds he knows that to be true and suggests a legal alternative: If Emanuel steps down three weeks before the end of his term, Blagojevich could make an interim appointment of someone who would take the seat up to the election.
"OK? You would appoint somebody to finish those three weeks ...," Emanuel says in the transcript. "It gives him a head start (over other candidates) and a presumption. So I am going to check that legally out, and then we will, uh, and I, this is between you and I ..."

Kaunda Suit: Kenyan Businessmen Used Late Zambia's President's Name on Design to Avoid Legal Tussle
Sunday, June 20, 2021 at 6:51 PM by Kai Eli
The idea of Kaunda suits is believed to have been birthed by Zambia's founding father, the late Kenneth Kaunda
For Kenyans to sell the outfits without angering Kenneth Kaunda, they named them Kaunda suits
The outfits had been commonplace among African statesmen
PAY ATTENTION: Help us change more lives, join TUKO.co.ke's Patreon programme
Before everyone adopted the Kaunda suits, they had been believed to be favourites for African statesmen who had made them their official attires.
The idea of Kaunda suits is believed to have been coined by the late Kenneth Kaunda.
One of the African leaders known to have been synonymous with the suits was Zambia's founding father, the late Kenneth Kaunda, from whose name the attires were labelled.
In all his official functions, the first president of independent Zambia would be seen donning one, the difference being the colours of the suits, which changed from one function to the other.
This made the late Kaunda the pioneer of the outfits, and due to the popularity they had gained, Kenyan businesspeople began dealing in them.
Kenneth Kaunda: Zambia's First President's Memorable Quotes
But due to the fear of infringing on what was believed to be Kaunda's idea, the businesspeople devised a better way of selling the suits without the president suing them on account of patents violation.
"I met Julius Nyerere in Mbeya, we were both dressed in the suit. Then he (Nyerere) told me you know, these Kenyan people are business-minded but they are conscious. They were worried I would sue them if I found out they were using my suits, so they called them Kaunda suit so that I do not become angry," Kaunda recalled in an undated clip.
Kaunda suits in the late 1990s stretching to the 2000s had become famous outfits that men preferred as an apt alternative to the traditional long sleeve suits that had been mainly embraced.
Despite Kaunda suits being a pure reserve for the elderly, in the 2000s, the young generation of men had begun rocking them due to their simplicity, cool and comfortable design, given they were not accessorized by ties.

University of Glasgow recalls exchange students in Hong Kong
Ollie Rudden
The 19 Glasgow exchange students are among the many being recalled from universities across the world.
The University of Glasgow is recalling its students currently studying in Hong Kong.
The announcement was made via Twitter, where the University of Glasgow said they are in "close contact" with students in Hong Kong and are "supporting them to stay safe and arrange travel home".
There are currently 19 students in Hong Kong on exchange from the University of Glasgow.
The University has not yet made a formal statement regarding the recalling of the students.
Recent deaths in Hong Kong include Alex Chow, a 22-year-old student who fell to his death during a police operation to clear the area, and pro-Beijing lawmaker Junius Ho who was stabbed in the street.
Glasgow is just one of many universities that are recalling students from Hong Kong. The University of Edinburgh recently announced it was recalling its 21 exchange students due to the civil unrest. Aberdeen, Warwick and the University of Sydney have also announced the recalling of students.
The University of Hong Kong, one of Glasgow's international university partners, announced they were suspending all classes on campus for the remainder of the semester and making all learning and teaching activities available online due to "the uncertain and unsafe traffic conditions for travelling to HKU."
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology announced it has closed its campus until Sunday 17 November and that there will be no "face-to-face classes or any proctored on-campus final examinations on the Clear Water Bay campus." The Chinese University of Hong Kong also announced it would support and "will facilitate the students and campus residents who wish to go home."
Exchange students in Hong Kong are advised to get in contact with their university and make arrangements to leave.
