Cao Phong township steps up administrative reform
9/23/2021 - 6:06:57 PM
(HBO) - Aware of the importance of administrative reform, the authorities of Cao Phong township, Cao Phong district, have established a one-stop section for receiving applications for administrative procedures and returning processing results. This section, equipped with modern equipment and software and connected with the district People's Committee and provincial departments and sectors in all fields, has helped reduce the time needed for handling procedures for organisations and individuals.
People come to submit applications for administration procedures at the one-stop section of the Cao Phong township People's Committee (Cao Phong district).
Nguyen Thi Ngoc Quynh, a resident in Zone 7, came to the one-stop section to have papers of her children notarised ahead of the new school year.
She said previously, the processing of administrative procedures usually took a long time and applicants were required to go to state agencies repeatedly. In recent years, the processing time has shorten while civil servants have also carefully given instructions.
Over the past years, thanks to the district and provincial administrations' attention, Cao Phong township has earmarked hundreds of millions of VND from its budget annually for building modern infrastructure for the section.
To carry out administrative reform, the township People's Committee has overhauled administrative procedures, issued detailed relevant regulations, and publicised documents required for administrative procedures related to individuals and organisations, as well as settlement processes. Besides, the hotline of the People's Committee has also been listed at the single-window section so that the committee can receive and deal with citizens' petitions and feedback in a timely manner.
By the end of August, the section received 2,094 dossiers, 1,253 of which were submitted online. As many as 2,093 of the dossiers were settled, with 277 ahead of schedule.
Every year, the township People's Committee sends its cadres and civil servants to refresher courses organised by district and provincial authorities. Thanks to training, the staff's capacity has continued to be improved and standardised, helping to improve their performance.
Nguyen The Anh, Chairman of the Cao Phong township People's Committee, said since the one-stop mechanism was applied, the section for receiving applications and returning settlement results has become an important "bridge" linking authorities with people. Civil servants here are responsible for receiving dossiers, providing advice, giving instructions to citizens, and returning settlement results in line with regulations and as soon as possible. All procedures and fees are publicised.
As a result, the township has continually been listed among the leading localities in Cao Phong district in terms of administrative reform and won over high evaluation from people and enterprises, he added./.

The beauty, fashion and lifestyle influencer is unapologetically funny, tech-savvy and is securing all the bags. Woo is also a stand-up comedian, singer, and actress, who is currently the TV host and writer for BET's "BET BREAKS" and "Black is Life". She has also been featured on MTV's "Wild N Out", BET's "Set Trippin" and BET's first ever HERTV Awards Red Carpet Show. Jessie Woo uses her platform on Instagram (IG) to share light on the everyday issues that women go through.
Woo shares her experience with us about her journey into comedy, into Love & Hip Hop Miami and growing up Haitian-American. She is the "Seester-in-Chief" and she's here to stay!
Could you tell us a little bit about your journey into comedy?
I didn't set out to go into comedy. I have always been silly and outgoing. I was always the one willing to put myself out there and do/say the things others would not. Moving to New York in Summer 2016, I was determined to get on television and make music. Upon falling on hard times, I lost my job after moving into my first apartment, I was stressed, depressed and I just felt lost. I started taking my frustrations out on the internet. I didn't think my silly videos would catch on quickly but they did. I posted my first video in May 2017, my infamous broken McDonald's ice-cream machine video. The rest is pretty much history.
You are the host at BET Breaks, and you also sing and act. What keeps you inspired and motivated?
At BET Breaks, I've come in contact with influential speakers/journalists such as Gia Peppers, Jamila Mustafa, and several other gifted women. They motivate me by displaying their black girl magic! I grew up singing. My mom and dad are both singers with great voices. I've always been very artistic, drowning in my dreams of being a star. I wanted to be the Haitian Jamie Foxx – singing, acting, doing stand up comedy… I want to do it all!
Haitian culture is proudly woven throughout your jokes and stand up material. Could you tell us about your experience as a Haitian-American?
My Haitian American experience has been rough, insightful, funny, challenging… it's been many things. Growing up in Miami during the 90s was pretty tough for us Haitians. We were made of, ridiculed, made to feel ashamed of who we are and where we came from. I just thank God for my mom and my family. My mom always taught my siblings and I that we are royalty, that we come from riches and strength. My grandma always taught me to flip the stereotypes for my gain. When I would get bullied for being Haitian, she'd tell me to tell my bullies that she eats children. Everybody believed all Haitians did voodoo back then, so they backed up off me (laughs).
Comedy is a very male-dominated field. What are some of the roadblocks and misconceptions that you've dealt with as a female comedian?
Equal pay and respect are my main issues. Flying me out isn't enough. Pay me my fee! Free bottles and a free hotel stay aren't paid. I need my check and I need it before I hit the stage. Doing standup, I've learned that men can really do the bare minimum and get by. As a woman I have to work harder for my respect, I don't have that same luxury.
In the creative field, artists are often told they'll be paid for their talents and services through "exposure." Do you have any advice for the creative entrepreneurs and artists who are struggling to be financially compensated?
As a creative, you're going to come across pro bono projects. It's pretty normal to hear "exposure" be used as a form of payment, but you as a creative have to think about the "exposure". If the "exposure" may most likely lead to a job at a major network, do it. Instagram likes isn't "exposure" unless you can translate it into income. A lot of these folks getting "exposure" can't pay their bills. Don't get played out here.
You recently joined the cast of Love & Hip Hop Miami. Why did you decide to join the show and what should we expect to see from you?
I knew I was going to do Love & Hip Hop since last fall. I decided to do it because it's a good platform for visibility. Being a social media personality as well as a host on BET has put me in many rooms I couldn't get in before. Love & Hip Hop will do the same especially when it comes to music. Many people don't know I'm a singer. I've been singing my whole life. The show gives me a chance to tap into that side of me.
In addition to LHH, I have a show on BET coming out soon called Black to Life! I'm very excited about it. You'll see me hitting the streets of New York asking quizzing white people on black culture. Very funny! Can't wait for everyone to see it.
Any advice for young women of color who are interested in pursuing a career in comedy?
They will try you, sis! Have a real routine for when you hit the stage. IG skits don't cut it when you're alone with a microphone with hundreds of eyes on you. Demand your terms and stick to them. Be creative! Be you! Don't copy anyone's style. There's only one you for a reason.


5 months of continuous bloom on this drought proof groundcover!
Available mid April 2019 - reserve your plants now!
Nepeta Walkers Low is a high performing, drought tolerant groundcover blooming from spring into fall!
The excitement begins in late spring when a profusion of fragrant, trumpet-shaped lavender- blue flowers burst into bloom. Fragrant, grey-green foliage is an added plus!
Vigorous and dependable, Nepetas or catmint keep blooming for months on end. This terrific Sun Loving Groundcover performs remarkably in heat, humidity, and the punishing summer sun.
Nepetas happily take on whatever environment they are planted in. They are not fussy about soil as long it is well-drained. Foolproof and easy, growing up to 24 inches high and spreading over 24 inches wide.
Soil: Easily grown in average, dry to medium, well-drained soil. Thrives in dry soils, and is very drought tolerant.
Light: Full sun to part shade -- Full sun is best in the North. Somewhat intolerant of the heat and humidity of the deep South, and appreciates some afternoon shade in hot climates.
Fertilizing: In average soil, needs almost no fertilizer. Too much fertilizer will only make it grow lots of flimsy foliage. In poor soil, some compost in fall or spring, or a very light scattering of slow release fertilizer in early spring will provide sufficient nutrients to keep the plant happy.
Winterizing: Leave spent foliage in place over winter to help protect the crown. Wait until early spring to cut it back.
Maintenance & Pruning: Shear flower spikes after initial flowering to promote continued bloom. Can shear plant foliage back to keep it from becoming too leggy. Divide in spring if necessary.
I just received another great shipment from you…having moved to a new property I have bought a lot of plants, but what you sell , the size, and shipping are the best. I am a loyal customer.
Just wanted to let you know that all of my plants are doing very well. We placed a rather large order that arrived in the beginning of July. Only one plant did not make it and you were quick to correct that by sending us a new one. All of my nepeta walkers low are doing fantastic. The ones facing the north have grown 3 times the size that they were in only 1 month. They are covered in purple blooms already too. I water everything every day and watch all of my beautiful plants continue to grow bigger and bigger. I can't wait to see how big they get next summer.

The Future of Work: Education & Workforce Gaps Affecting Colorado Women
November 25, 2019 Bell Policy Center Staff
Education & Training, Facts, Work Life
Women are critical to the future of work and the stability and growth of Colorado's economy. In 2018, the Bell Policy Center looked at the changing world of work from a gender lens, including trends in automation and emerging technology, the growth in alternative work arrangements, and changing education and training needs. This brief builds on that work by taking a closer look at two aspects of Colorado's learning and work environment for women: Attainment in two- and four-year degree programs and growth in women-dominated professions.
Today, women make up the majority of postsecondary students and degree earners, but many still find themselves funneled into careers with low pay and little opportunity for advancement. While it's unclear exactly why this breakdown occurs, it does offer distinct opportunities for strategic public investment to shape Colorado's future of work and women's place in it.
Though women face systemic discrimination that's far beyond the scope of this latest analysis, Colorado can prioritize programs that assist women through the pipeline from postsecondary education into stable, well-compensated employment. By increasing public investment in the industries primarily dominated by women workers and strengthening workplace protections and opportunities for advancement, our state can ensure Colorado women have a strong foothold in the economy of tomorrow.
This addendum to our previous work is not meant to be an exhaustive update to the challenges and opportunities facing Colorado women. It's a chance for us to continue our important research and analysis on how to better ensure women's success in our state's workforce and economy. As we explore more about what the future of work means for Colorado women, we'll continue to build on both our 2018 report, The Future of Work: Implications for Colorado Women, and this brief, The Future of Work: Education & Workforce Gaps Affecting Colorado Women.
This brief was funded by a grant from The Women's Foundation of Colorado, made with support from The Chambers Fund, a donor-advised fund of The Women's Foundation of Colorado.

The European Union Renews Zimbabwe Sanctions
Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe.
The European Union has renewed for another year targeted sanctions against Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe, his wife Grace and the Zimbabwe Defense Industries.
Mr. Mugabe and his wife are subject to a travel ban imposed by the EU a decade ago over electoral fraud and human rights abuse allegations while the Zimbabwe Defense Industries is affected by an arms embargo.
"The restrictive measures should be renewed until Feb. 20, 2016," the EU's Official Journal revealed Friday. "The application of the travel ban and asset freeze should be maintained for two persons."
The EU has over the years eased the measures to encourage political reform in Zimbabwe but kept its travel ban on Mr. Mugabe and his wife Grace, as well as the ZDI arms embargo.
The renewal of the sanctions came on the back of the EU's decision to start supporting Harare directly.
This week the bloc gave Zimbabwe $270 million to fund the government and a number of projects as relations between Harare and the EU showed signs of thawing.
Earlier this month, EU officials said that Mr. Mugabe might be allowed into Eropean capitals on an exceptional basis during his year-long chairmanship of the African Union, if traveling on AU business.
Political analyst and Director for Centre for Natural Resource Governance Farai Maguwu says the EU should have lifted the sanctions saying the measures are doing little, if anything, to put pressure on Mr. Mugabe.
"I think it reflects the complexity of sanctions," said Maguwu. "On one hand we see the desire of the European Union to re-engage with Zimbabwe; at the same time they have problems readmitting Mugabe as a friend, an ally, as a statesman."
He continued: "So we see that President Mugabe and his wife are now a stumbling block between the relations of Zimbabwe and the rest of the world."
Presidential spokesman George Charamba was not reachable for comment.
He did not pick his phone but Zanu PF activist and political commentator Morris Ngwenya told VOA that it's not surprising that the EU has decided to renew the sanctions against Mr. Mugabe and the Zimbabwe Defense Industries.


Most Durable Mens Wedding Band –The wedding ring is a conventional tradition, once roots dating support to the Roman Empire. Originally, the wedding band symbolized "ownership", or "belonging to another" and indicated a conformity had been made in the manner of different person to spend their lives together as husband and wife. beyond times the meaning and symbolism has changed. Today, the roundness of the wedding band is said to indicate the perpetual flora and fauna of marriage, and the never-ending adore and bond that a couple ration through marriage.
It was during the Victorian times that the wedding band came to be qualified as a parable of love greater than an indication of a contract. Not surprisingly, it was during this grow old that settled marriages became less well-liked and women and men had more release to pick their cronies for love and friendship rather than for financial security or social prosperity. However, it was not until more recent times, that of nearly World conflict I, that the exchange of wedding rings with man and woman took upon the meaning and symbolism that the rings carry today.
Over time, along in imitation of the fiddle with in symbolism, came a change in attitude very nearly what rings should see like as well. while today, the most popular rings are nevertheless made of gold, silver, or platinum, there are with supplementary metals and styles handy to suite every lifestyle and fashion sense.
Because most brides get an interest ring, the wedding bands often praise the incorporation ring style and as well as get along with each further to some degree. though this is not a difficult and quick rule, generally, a man's and woman's rings which they argument are same in see and metal, too.
There are furthermore numerous other options available, including bands created from durable or engaging metals (such as tungsten carbide wedding bands, or titanium wedding bands) or bands that are meant incorporating diamonds, birthstones, or supplementary unnatural gems.
It is nevertheless definitely popular to have an engraved revelation placed in a band as well. even if many opt for their impending anniversary date, many plus choose to engrave a little quote, a name, or a simple "I do" upon the inside of their bands.
One unmovable note to pronounce like choosing your wedding band, is to allow for plenty time before your wedding to ensure that sizing of the bands, and any customization can been curtains since the huge hours of daylight arrives. A good guidance is to buy your bands at least six weeks since your wedding day, although even more times may be needed for agreed unique or intricate custom work.

Chinese Christian Woman Arrested, Criminally Detained for Attempting to Share Gospel With President Xi Jinping
By Leah Marieann Klett ( [email protected] ) Mar 23, 2018 11:54 AM EDT Comment
Zhou Jinxia pictured with one of her controversial signs China Aid
A Chinese Christian woman was arrested by public security bureau officers and criminally detained after she attempted to share the gospel with President Xi Jinping.
Persecution watchdog China Aid reports that on March 15, Zhou Jinxia, a Christian who traveled to Beijing from Dalian, arrived at the front gate of the former imperial garden Zhongnanhai, holding a sign that read, "God loves the people of the world and is calling out to Xi Jinping."
Her objective, the outlet says, was to reach Xi while the National People's Congress (NPC) and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) convened.
However, a short time later, the director of the Huanghe Street Police Station, based in Dalian, brought her away, and she was escorted back to her hometown overnight. The next day, the Xigang Branch of the Dalian Municipal Public Security Bureau criminally detained her.
Days before, her friend called to inform her that the police have accused her of being a suspect at large and are looking for her.
The incident was not the first time Zhou had come under fire for her religious zeal; China Aid reports that she had traveled to Zhongnanhai several dozen times in the past few years to spread the Gospel and has either been detained or abducted each time.
In 2016, the Christian woman spent 10 days in administrative detention after another visit to Zhongnanhai, where she held a sign that said "God loves the people of the world and is calling out to Xi Jinping and [Xi's wife] Peng Liyuan. Atheism nurtures sin and brings down the people. The kingdom of heaven is at hand; you should repent." The police called this act "disturbing social order" and confiscated her materials.
Last year, Zhou and another Christian from Anhui, Shi Xinhong, went to the Great Hall of the People in Beijing and attempted to preach to the attendees of that year's meeting of the NPC and CPPCC. Both of them received the charge of "picking quarrels and provoking troubles" and were criminally detained.
However, China Aid warns that due to China's revised Religions Affairs Regulations, which came into effect in February, the latest incident may result in Zhou being prosecuted by authorities.
The regulations, which define the administrative framework around religious activities, have the stated aim of "protect[ing] citizens' freedom of religious belief".
"Religious affairs maintenance should persist in a principle of maintaining legality, curbing illegality, blocking extremism, resisting infiltration and attacking crime," the regulations say.
"Any group or individual must not create conflict or contention between different religions, with a single religion or between religious individuals and non-religious individuals," they say.
According to Reuters, fines for breaking the rules have also been increased in the new version and the organizers of unapproved events can now be subject to fines from 100,000 to 300,000 yuan, rather than the previous 1 to 3 times the amount spent on the event.
Persecution watchdog Open Doors USA has ranked China 43rd on its World Watch List of 50 countries where Christians face the most persecution.
A primary source of persecution, Open Doors says, is the Communist government.
"Christians, in particular, are hedged in by authorities, as they are the largest social force in China not controlled by the state," notes the outlet.

This drought has government backing
Sixth consecutive drought in Anantapur district of Andhra has worsened due to non-payment of wages under rural job scheme, failure of crop insurance and lack of fodder camps
TWELVE-YEAR-old Bukya Syamulamma has been left all alone to take care of her younger brother and sister at Kareddipalli Tanda village in Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh. Their grandmother broke her leg recently and went to a relative's house to recover. Syamulamma lugs 25 kilos of PDS ration on her back from a neighboring village several kilometers away, fetches water and cooks. Rama Devi (15) is living all by herself after her parents migrated to Kerala for work.
The walls of this village are full of mobile phone numbers of people who have migrated, for ready reference. There are only children and elderly people living in the homes and this story repeats itself in several villages of the district which is facing sixth consecutive drought this year. At least 4.87 lakh persons have migrated out and the kharif crop loss is estimated to be Rs 3,500-4,000 crore.
Farms and orchards are barren and livestock have been taken to far flung areas due to lack of water and fodder in the region. A team of civil society organisations went to different parts of Anantapur district and found a collapsed government apparatus that denied wages under MGNREGA, did not compensate farmers who had insured their crops and made almost no effort to make essential services like water available.
P Chandrasekhar Reddy, a grape farmer from Raminepalli village, went missing for two months ago after having invested repeatedly on nearly 25 borewells without any success of finding water for the crop. His wife and two small children have been left to cope with the hardship of their unfortunate life all alone. A few others have committed suicide due to coercive methods of banks eager on recovering their loans. At least 42 per cent of the agricultural borewells in the district have dried up and the groundwater levels in the district have fallen to 70-90 meters at many places. Around 68 per cent villages face severe drinking water shortage.
The number of milch and draught animals in the district has reduced by half. It is estimated that around 38 lakh heads of sheep and 8 lakh goats have been taken to distant places for grazing.
No guarantee of wages, insurance
The rural job guarantee scheme (MGNREGA), which should have helped villagers earn a living in these difficult times, is instead abetting migration as no payments are being made for the work done. Arrears from last year are yet to be given to some workers, while others are waiting to get their wage payments for work done three months ago. No single worker has been paid a compensation for the delays beyond 15 days as granted under the scheme. Such long delays in payments force families to migrate out.
Posts of field assistants under MGNREGA are vacant and no technical staff is present for taking measurement of work done. In fact, villagers complain there is no recording of demand for work. Workers are not issued their job cards despite repeated requests in several cases. At Raminepalli, Canara Bank is adjusting MGNREGA wages against an outstanding loan. Even old age pension payment is adjusted against an outstanding loan by the bank in one case.
Arrears from last year are yet to be given to some workers, while others are waiting to get their wage payments for work done three months ago.
Farmers have already paid an insurance premium amount of Rs 300 per acre with the state and central governments expected to provide a subsidised share of Rs 540 each per acre. The gross insurance premium paid on 7.67 lakh hectares of groundnut turned out to be Rs 2,64.71 crore, but farmers still await their claims to be settled, seven months after the harvest time is over.
Food and fodder at premium
Water for livestock is a major problem and animals are herded several kilometers to watering points, before being taken for grazing over parched lands. At least six cases of drought-related deaths of milch animals were found incurring a loss of Rs 20,000 to Rs 30,000. There is a high level of distress sale of animals by a large number of families at throw-away prices because owners are unable to provide for the animals any more. Many are selling their animals at throw-away pricesbeing unable to provide for them any more. Animals purchased for around Rs 30,000 are being sold at as low a price as Rs 5,500.
All livestock-owning households are purchasing fodder at the cost of at least Rs 5,000-7,500 per month. In absence of any fodder cultivation taken up by the government village-wise, or supply of fodder from elsewhere, this is something that families are spending their limited resources including by borrowing money.
Many are selling their animals at throw-away pricesbeing unable to provide for them any more. Animals purchased for around Rs 30,000 are being sold at as low a price as Rs 5,500
Functioning of the public distribution system of ration supply is the only saving grace even though in almost all villages, there are some families which do not possess any ration card, for a variety of reasons
In Kareddipalli Tanda village, the dealer's outlet is six kilometers away, forcing little children to walk for long and carry back kilos of ration when accessed as their parents have migrated out. In several cases, problems with bio-metric verification were reported. Elderly residents of Diguvapalli village are unable to access their PDS entitlements because they can't go to the dealer's shop for biometric authentication.
In fact, if the families who migrate out in search of work do not access their PDS quotas for three months, their names are removed from the lists and PDS supplies are no longer accessible to them even after they come back.

Q: ionic 3 angular dynamic menu I recently saw a website built using ionic angular and one of the coolest thing I liked is:
In the browser the typical navigator links like service, contact us etc. render on the top right corner in the header.
However, if you open it in the mobile device the same links render as hamburger menu on the top left which u can click to navigate.
I did not find anything like that in ionic component docs that can dynamically change the layout of the navigator menu. How do you do this?

Q: Angular Isolated Scope for multiselect list I'm currently trying to find a nice solution for allowing users a multi-select list. I found a great code-pen that illustrated what I want to use with the ionic framework.
http://codepen.io/mhartington/pen/CImqy
But I would like to have multiple select lists and If I add another to the pen
<fancy-select
    header-text="Multiple"
    allow-empty='false'
    value="val.multiple2"
    text="countries_text_multiple"
    items="countries"
    multi-select="true"
    >
</fancy-select>

Making sure to bind the value to a different value it still alters the existing one.... is there a way to have the model isolated , I looked over the code and it seems to do that already but I maybe missing something.
Cheers

A: In your code everything is fine.
use '@'  instead of '=' in your directive for 'text' attribute.
scope: {
                    'items'        : '='
                    'text'         : '@'(please update this(@) in your code ,and add your directive in html page ),
                    'value'        : '=',
                    'callback'     : '&'
                },
I think it will helpfull for you.


Dopamine is one of the brain's neurotransmitters – a chemical that sends signals to other nerve cells – that helps to regulate movement, learning and emotional responses to reward cues.
Parkinson's disease is a common neurological disease caused by the degeneration of dopamine-producing cells in the brain. Although usually thought of as a disorder of movement, patients also suffer from debilitating disorders of motivation, such as apathy.
In light of World Parkinson's Day on Thursday 11 April, Dr Trevor Chong from the Monash Institute of Cognitive and Clinical Neurosciences (MICCN) said this news was encouraging for both the medical industry and the 80,000 Australians with Parkinson's disease.
"About 40 per cent of patients with Parkinson's disease suffer from apathy," Dr Chong said.
The team tested 20 patients with Parkinson's disease on a cost-benefit decision-making task, in which they had to decide how much cognitive effort they were willing to invest in return for reward. These patients were tested across two sessions – on and off dopaminergic medication – and their performance compared with 20 healthy controls.
The study, published in Brain, was produced by Ms Sara McGuigan, Dr Shou-Han Zhou, Dr Meadhbh Brosnan, Professor Dominic Thyagarajan, Professor Mark Bellgrove and Dr Trevor Chong.

Many of my clients wrestle with the choice to reupholster existing pieces of furniture or opt to purchase new.
When clients are moving into a different home, more often than not, we opt to purchase new as the scale and style will not always translate. However, if a client is staying in their same location and just desires a refresher of sorts then we strongly consider reupholstery as a favorable option.
If the quality is really nice, and the quality is as-good or better then you could purchase for the price of the reupholstering.
If the shape is unique or has a vintage appeal that you desire.
If the piece is sentimental; perhaps an heirloom from family.
If the construction can endure reupholstering. Example: It would not damage the frame, finish, or carving to remove and replace the fabric.
If the piece, particularly larger, fits your space plan well.
It is always important to get a quote for the labor and the amount of yardage required from the upholsterer who will be doing the work. It is also helpful to discuss the other factors like replacement of fill in the cushions or details like welt or nailhead trim. These choices will way in on the decision as this may alter the labor price. Gathering all of this information and considering the factors above in advance will make the wrestling with reupholstery decision a breeze!

As we are heading towards the second half of the fourth quarter, anxiety rises, spring fever kicks into high gear, and freshmen are excited that their first year is ending. On the other hand, the seniors are getting ready to end their last year as high schoolers.
May 1 was College Decision Day and most students have already figured out where they will be this fall. June 15 is coming fast, and once we walk across the stage, there's no turning back. While the end is near and we say we can't wait, there are thing that we will miss about our time here in the bubble that is high school.
Energy is high, excitement is higher and seniors are screaming "sit down freshmen." All four classes are competing to win spirit points and a prize. Pep rallies are that one time each quarter where you get a pass to have fun, to and be as loud as you want with no restrictions. Pep rallies are also that time you were standing together with your entire class, something that rarely happens. Pep rallies represent fun, unity, and who we are: panthers who roar all the time even when it's not necessary. Pep rallies are not held at most colleges or universities, at least they aren't as structured as they are in the high school setting where students are basically ushered into the setting, and they are something we will miss.
Flash days are those days that you walked into school and got something you didn't expect. For example, I remember walking into school and students were standing in front of the doors screaming "IT'S FREE PIE DAY." Let's be honest, everybody loves pie. Pie day wasn't the only flash day here, we've also had "FREE PANCAKE DAY" better known as batter day. The day you came to school and were greeted with the fresh smell of buttery gridle cakes. It made going off to your first block of the day a little better.
The pacer is that thing that you wish left itself in middle school but somehow ran its way with you to high school. Gym was that class where you walked around the track with your friends catching up on all the tea you missed or just new tea period. Gym was that class where whenever you got there, somehow your stomach would "hurt" or you "didn't feel well" every time you had to run a lap or two or three or four. Gym was that class that pushed you to your last nerve sometimes, but through everything, every drop of sweat, and every time you walked around with your friends, you know you're going to miss it.
Everyone has that one teacher who "changed their life," and that teacher, most of the time, makes up 90 percent of the reason that student made it through high school. Not always literally, but sometimes. Everyone has that one teacher who you go to about everything regardless of if you're on their class roster or not. Leaving one of the people who made you who you are is difficult. The saddest part about it is once you walk across that stage, you're leaving them behind, for what could potentially be forever.
Most of us by this point have known each other for at least seven years – some for over a decade. Over this course of time, we have all grown extremely close and have made bonds that can never be broken. We've experienced problems with relationships, stress, choir rehearsals, concerts, homecoming, spring flings, late night study sessions, and senioritis together. Leaving your friends is difficult when you're a senior because after graduation, everyone is going to different colleges or universities or into jobs or the military and your friend might not be doing the exact same thing that you are. We may see each other during breaks and when we're home, but will it ever be the same as it is now seeing each other every day?
Ending senior year means no more running late to fifth period, no more catching the bus, no more school lunches, and no more walking the halls with friends. Most importantly saying goodbye to your high school career means hello to adulthood and new beginnings.

Rabbitbrush Rambler: Natural and unnatural infrastructure
By: Virginia Simmons - Updated: 1 year ago
It's easy to see that Ma Nature created canyons where streams could be impounded, whether the work was to be done by rock slides and beavers or by investors in irrigation projects. Most of the dams have been here so long that we take their scenery, human enterprise, and recreational opportunities for granted.
Before I start describing our dams, though, I want to pay homage to the Melvin Getz, who died recently. He worked hard to inform ordinary citizens like me about these infrastructures, and I'm gratefully remembering an educational bus trip he arranged several years ago when we saw firsthand the existing need for repair work at Rio Grande Reservoir's dam.
At that time, the dam's owners, the SLV Irrigation District, were concerned about the costly work that was needed. It was only one of several structures, publically and privately owned, that have needed work around the Valley and several have received it in recent years.
A small one that I visited about 30 years ago, La Jara Reservoir, was in the process of being drained. Being a birder, I was there to see a huge number of raptors scavenging dead and dying fish, but I soon got interested in learning about the importance of keeping the Valley's dams in good repair to prevent floods and to provide the economic uses of the water they impounded, as well as their popular recreational opportunities.
Let's take a trip around the Valley to appreciate how many there are and to whom they belong. At Trujillo Meadows Reservoir near Cumbres Pass, for instance, the reservoir is in Rio Grande National Forest, where Colorado Parks and Wildlife also has facilities for the avid fishermen, but last year it had to be drained, cleaned up, and repaired, while the fishermen fretted.
If that seems sort of simple, look at Platoro Lake, which is in the national forest, but the dam's infrastructure belongs to the U.S. Bureau of Recreation but the Conejos Water Conservation District manages the irrigation water and flood control. It can get complicated, trying to keep everyone happy.
On the Alamosa River, draining and repairing the flood control/irrigation dam was not just about the owners' interests. They also had to be thinking about the concerns of the Alamosa River Watershed Conservation District, which was working on ambitious projects to improve the stream and its total environment.
Around the corner of the Rio Grande, the Beaver Creek sinkhole repairs have just been finished in the Rio Grande National Forest, and that took longer than was originally expected because the problems were bigger than expected. Not long before, the dam extensive work at the SLV Irrigation District's Rio Grande Dam got wrapped up.
Then there are impoundments like Santa Maria and Continental while across the Valley there are Mountain Home and Sanchez, all of which are important for irrigation and recreation, and out in the middle is Reclamation's San Luis Lakes that figures in the Rio Grande Compact. Or else.
There also are a host of private lakes with dams and summer places on the west side, and numerous pretty subalpine lakes with no infrastructure except Ma Nature's kind that stores water unless a storm takes out the lakes, fallen trees, and boulders, destroying poorly located buildings, towns, and roads in the process. Then, whose job is it to clean up after a washout or a mudslide? Local, county, state, or federal government tax moneys?
Except during the political campaign in 2016, Trump seems to have had little to say about infrastructure, and Congress seems unable to accomplish anything except pass the buck or authorize tax breaks for the rich and famous. At least statewide in Colorado, the problems are being recognized and addressed, at taxpayers' and private owners' expense.
But if we were to get one of those 100-year-or-more disastrous cloudbursts or droughts, which have happened before you know, then we would demand some really big federal money. Probably too late.
It's easy to see that Ma Nature created canyons where streams could be impounded, whether the work was to be done by rock slides and beavers or by investors in irrigation projects.

Are You Sure That Your Building Is Fire Safe?
There have been some recent, terrible examples where people have unfortunately lost their lives due to the failure of a fire control system. If you are the owner or operator of a building that allows access to the public, or provides shelter to multiple families, then you have a duty of responsibility to make sure that you look out for them. Do you have the most up-to-date systems and procedures in place in your building?
It's a legal requirement that buildings such as this have up-to-date and fully functional fire alarms, together with a system for dealing with any such events. These alarms must be activated automatically due to the presence of smoke or heat and must give those inside time to react, even if they cannot physically see evidence of flames.
It goes without saying that injury or loss of life to an employee, visitor or tenant is a catastrophic situation and government health and safety watchdogs insist that you take precautions against this. Fire alarms must be placed strategically and must be serviced regularly, so that the structure is as safe as possible.
Fire alarms are only a part of the equation, however. They can certainly warn people, but they cannot prevent the fire itself. Consequently, you have to have a way for people to quickly and effectively evacuate the premises and must indicate where the nearest exit is, at every point of the building.
Never allow rubbish (or anything else for that matter) to obstruct any pathways. Remember, smoke could be present and the area may only be lit by emergency lighting, so it may be difficult to see. You must also have a way of accounting for everybody that was in the building through a rollcall method and have signified an area for everyone to evacuate to.
It's a good idea to design a fire safety plan with experts, who can tailor make it according to your building's specifications. You may need to install CCTV monitors and cameras, special emergency lighting and other elements as well as the core fire alarm system. Remember also that you may be responsible for materials that make up the building's structure and should always ensure that they are regulated and approved by the fire authorities.
It's always best if you work with building service suppliers, who are fully aware of the latest fire safety regulations and can ensure that you are as compliant as possible.

Roadrunner, a new documentary about the life and death of chef and TV personality Anthony Bourdain, uses deepfake technology to re-create Bourdain's voice without disclosure and without the permission of Bourdain's widow Ottavia.
In an interview with the New Yorker, filmmaker Neville Morgan describes how he had supplied an AI company with a dozen hours of Bourdain speaking in order to manufacture three quotes he had wanted the TV host to say.
The interview led to a backlash by film critics, film makers and others, who accused Morgan of underhand, manipulative and unethical behaviour. 'We can have a documentary-ethics panel about it later', Morgan quipped.

She is the author of With Our Labor and Sweat: Indigenous Women and the Formation of Colonial Society in Peru, 1550–1700 (Stanford University Press, 2007), as well as numerous articles. Her new project, provisionally titled "Neighbors and Others: Space, Peoples, and Jurisdictions in the Iberian Atlantic," examines the worlds that created and responded to social differentiation of various kinds in fifteenth-century Seville and sixteenth-century Lima; it has been generously funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the American Council of Learned Societies, the John Carter Brown Library, and the Kellogg Institute for International Studies.

The political jurisdiction of the colonial cacique, or ethnic lord, is often understood to have been truncated or undermined by Spanish political administration. But the role of the cacique was also key to enabling Spanish administrators to extract wealth from native communities. What exactly that role was is undocumented in Spanish-language archival materials. By examining recent literature on the Iberian qadi, or judge of the Islamic community under Christian rule, this study argues that the cacique, like the qadi, maintained his or her local authority and jurisdiction. Evidence for this hidden jurisdiction is found in a sixteenth-century case that was set aside by the Real Audiencia because it fell outside that body's jurisdiction and within the dominion of the cacique.

Basically for years I just had walls all around who I was, I was just outwardly sarcastic, not really that emotional at all and everyone around me including my parents said that I was a sociopath. I've no history of harming anything or the likes I just don't really particularly care either way about others.
Well now I have been thinking about it and I am not really sure that I am feeling my own feelings, or if they are just the feelings that are proper for the situation I'm in. I'm always proper to the situation I'm in but I can't help but to feel like the natural feelings I get are kind of just fake and for other people. And it otherwise feels like I have lost the idea of who I actually am deep down or I have lost the idea of how to play myself.
Just curious if anyone else can give advice on what I may be experiencing, I've been to a couple therapist and their diagnosis was essentially "you're smart" and so I just want to figure stuff out.
Well... I wish I knew what to tell you about this. I've been hiding who I really am for so many decades I no longer have any idea. And, at this point, it really doesn't even matter. I simply keep to myself now.
I recall once, many years ago, going in to see a school counselor at the college I was attending. I described for him what I was experiencing (which I now realize was probably depression... probably related to cPTSD.) And at the end of my session the counselor's response was to tell me I seemed to have a pretty good handle on my situation.
I don't know what to tell you about what you may be experiencing. I think this is the kind of thing a person ought to be able to get from working with a good therapist. But, of course, the key is to find a good therapist. I personally never had much in the way of success with that.
Thank you for your kind words however, I think you may be a little bit misguided. You said that you have been hiding who you really are for many decades and that it no longer matters anymore. Well it does matter, the only thing to strive for in this life is for a sense of belonging within ourselves and happiness. Im not sure how happy you are but never quit trying to find yourself, digging through the mire and murk of what makes you, you, you are important, just considering your presence on the forums you consistently put in kind words for others and seek to aid people, so I will start you out in discovering fully who you really are. You are a good person, you have a kind soul, you help others and have an innate altruism, you bring warmth to other peoples hearts and have likely helped a lot of people in your time here and you should be very proud of your heart and your dedication, so try not to give up on yourself and finding out more about yourself, it is a life long struggle but it's worth it.
The sociopath thing really makes sense here to me, as I got the feeling from your post in the DID forum that you have quite a few narcissistic traits. I have read before that not every narcissist is a sociopath, but every sociopath is a narcissist.
I don't have any advice for you sorry, but this does help put your other post in the DID forum into context.
Sociopaths aren't necessarily bad or criminal or hurtful towards others (some can be, but not all are), it's just that they don't experience emotions in the same way that other people do. Like you explained in your post here, they can "act" emotions, as in they know what emotions are socially appropriate in any given situation, they just don't feel them. There are advantages to that. And disadvantages of course.
Amyjay, I would like to note that I am not a sociopath merely confused with the nature of my own emotions. Sometimes I do feel pure joy, or guilt, or sadness, or any other feeling on the spectrum, other times my emotions confuse me, I am unsure why the feelings I experience are the ones I am experiencing for those situations and I am unsure if they are my emotions or just me acting out emotions that make sense. But I still do have genuine feelings.
People around me call me sociopathic, but that does not make me one. My family greatly "discouraged" my outward expressions, while I did indeed used to have narcissistic tendencies I no longer have those. And my post on my friend with DID goes only up to around 1.5 - 2 years ago.


Say what you will about Eli Roth's movies, but the dude knows movies. You can ask him a question about one of his own movies, like The Green Inferno or Knock Knock, which both came out within a month of each other this year, and he'll end up launching into a thesis about Peter Jackson's early work. It's just how the guy's brain works. He's a Tarantino-level cinephile, especially when it comes to the horror genre.
So with Halloween around the corner, we figured, who better to ask for some horror movie recs? He was more than happy to give a few suggestions, and even talk about some of his other favorite movies. But honestly, Roth would have found a way to impart his knowledge to us whether we asked or not. Take notes.
As told to Erik Abriss.

Nearly all the versions of this idiom come from sports, par from golf, scratch and mark from boxing (after being knocked down a fighter had eight seconds to make his way to a mark scratched in the center of the ring), and speed from racing. However, the allusion in the variant with snuff, which dates from the early 1800s, has been lost.

Failure to Develop, Implement and Enforce Policies and Procedures That Prevent Abuse, Neglect, and Mistreatment – citation date October 25, 2018
According to state surveyors, the facility "failed to implement abuse and neglect policies and [for one resident] who alleged verbal abuse." The survey team reviewed the resident's MDS (Minimum Data Set) Assessment and Care Plan that revealed the resident "had episodes of verbal and physical outbursts as evidenced by arguing with roommates, accusations toward the staff, depression, and anxiety."
The nursing staff was to follow interventions including allowing the resident "time to respond to directed to request, and if anger escalates, have another staff approach her." The surveyors asked the resident "if she felt like she was being treated with dignity and or respect, and if she ever felt abused." The resident replied that a State-Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) "had flipped off (the middle finger gesture) and she reported to the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)."
The surveyors interviewed the LPN who revealed that another LPN had witnessed an incident between the resident and an STNA." The LPN said that the resident "never told her about the incident, it was [the other LPN] that had mentioned it. This LPN stated that the Director of Nursing knew of the incident. The LPN thought that the STNA was removed from the floor for an investigation.
As a part of the investigation, the Administrator and Registered Nurse (RN) were interviewed. During the interview, it was revealed that the resident had been "in the hallway stating [the STNA] had been flipped off." It was documented that the LPN did not witness [the STNA flipped off the resident], but she did witness [the resident screaming at the STNA, and the STNA] was trying to calm her down."
The surveyors noted that there was no facility Self-Reported Incident (SRI) "created for the alleged use incident, no other residents or staff were interviewed regarding the incident or staff interactions [and the STNA] was never taken off the schedule for an investigation." Both the Administrator and the RN claimed that the previous Director of Nursing "should have completed a full investigation but did not." This deficiency "substantiates Complaint Number OH 589."

Le lac Sainte-Anne est un lac de montagne localisé dans la commune de Ceillac, au sud du parc naturel régional du Queyras, dans les Hautes-Alpes. Il est situé à  d'altitude, au pied du Pic Nord de la Font Sancte, et au dessus de ses voisins, le lac Miroir et le lac des Rouites.

De par sa superficie, le lac Sainte-Anne est le plus grand lac du Queyras. Ce lac est d'origine glaciaire, mais ne possède pas de déversoir car ses eaux s'infiltrent directement dans le barrage morainique perméable.

Accessibilité
Le lac Sainte-Anne est accessible par deux randonnées. Pour y accéder, on peut partir du parking de Chaurionde, à 1967 mètres d'altitude, et atteindre le lac après 3,16 kilomètres de randonnée et 447 mètres de dénivelé positif.

Beans are typically viewed as a healthy food, which is why people are often surprised to hear that we do not eat them on the Paleo diet.
I often get bewildered looks from people wondering what is wrong with beans – after all, many health-conscious dieters (e.g. vegetarians) use beans in many of their dishes, sometimes in high quantities, because beans contain fiber and other necessary nutrients. So why aren't they Paleo?
The truth is, beans and other legumes aren't great for you, and if you eat them often, they might even be bad for you, but they are the least of your worries. While I avoid them myself, I wouldn't say this is the most important Paleo rule to follow, and a little bit of beans once in a while should be totally okay!
But it is important to understand why the Paleo guidelines recommend excluding beans from your diet. There are lots of myths out there about the reasons, and I hope I can clear some of those up.
Many people assume that if something is not Paleo, it's because our Paleolithic ancestors didn't eat it. While it's true for things like dairy and wheat, it is not the case for legumes. In fact, an analysis of Neanderthal tooth plaque reveals that they at least ate peas and some varieties of beans – so chances are, our Paleo ancestors had beans as part of their regular diet.
But it's important to remember that the Paleo diet is based more on the food's impact on our bodies than it does on historical accuracy (the historical part is there as a guideline).
One of the real reasons legumes are not recommended on the Paleo diet is because they contain phytic acid (phytate), which is considered an "antinutrient" because it prevents your body from absorbing vitamins and minerals from the food you're eating. So beans basically defeat their own purpose when you eat them.
Many different plants contain phytic acid – it is their primary form of storage for phosphorus. It is usually contained within the seed or bran of the plant (which is, by the way, one of the reasons wheat is not Paleo either). Legumes typically contain a lot of it.
When you eat foods containing phytic acid, it binds to important minerals, such as calcium, iron, and zinc and washes them out before you can absorb them. This can eventually lead to malnutrition, especially since most people assume that eating beans should do the opposite and fill you with nutrients, and end up getting less from other sources.
Legumes, much like dairy and grains, contain a high lectin content. Lectins are a proteins found in legumes, grains, dairy, and some vegetables. Human bodies are not great at digesting lectins.
Different people react differently to different types of lectins. Some develop an immune response to them, some experience some mild intolerance, while others have no issues.
But even if you feel fine after eating something with a high lectin content, that doesn't mean they're not damaging to your digestive tract.
As lectins pass through the intestines, they damage the gut lining, eventually leading to it becoming "leaky". Leaky gut is a dangerous condition that allows foreign particles to leak out of your intestines and into your bloodstream – where they most certainly don't belong.
These foreign particles trigger an immune response which leads to chronic autoimmune disorders. Some of these foreign particles might even be toxic to you (depending on your diet) and you really don't want them running through your veins.
However, it is important to note that it is the raw legumes that are known for their high lectin content. You can reduce the amount of lectins in beans by cooking them properly – for example, soaking, sprouting, fermenting and slow cooking can often make legumes much safer to eat. To be fair, most people don't have the time to do that and find that it's not really worth the hassle.
Both phytic acid and lectins are legitimate concerns when it comes to legumes, but these compounds are also found in other foods (like vegetables) that are perfectly Paleo approved. The reason is because a) vegetables contain smaller amounts and b) vegetables are extremely nutritious and provide far more benefits than harm.
I believe that legumes can be eaten once in a while, but it's best to avoid them when possible. They are inferior to meats in their protein content, and inferior to vegetables in fiber/nutrient content. Once you account for the antinutrients they contain, legumes become just another filler – a food that has calories, but no nutritional value.
So while our ancestors may have had beans, today we know about their effects on our health, and have the power to make better choices.

Brexit news: UK and EU businesses told to brace for major border disruption from April | UK | News (Reports)
James Withers, Chief Exec of Scotland Food & Drink, discussed the impact of Brexit on the seafood industry and argued the sector was losing millions per day due to new border arrangements. While the UK is currently in a grace period, which ends in April, to get to grips with the rules, Mr Withers warned the checks have not properly started yet and he fears supermarket shelves could start to go empty. The Government adviser warned the UK is in for a shock when lorry queues finally materialise once the adjustment period ends in a few months.
Giving evidence to the Scottish Affairs Committee, Mr Withers said: "One thing that is important from the sentiment in the (seafood) industry is the reality that last year the interest of exporters, those doing business with the EU…we deprioritised compared to other issues.
"That is how it feels, and my sense is there have been two measurements on whether Brexit has been a disaster or it's actually been ok.
"And that's whether we've seen queues of lorries on motorways and runways in Kent or whether we've seen empty shelves on UK supermarkets.
"The reality is we haven't seen empty shelves because the checks haven't started yet until April and there are no queues in Kent on runways or on motorways because 68 percent of lorries are carrying fresh air, they're empty.

"And we've got hugely thin volumes so that is not a measure of success that is a measure of the scale of failure that we have got just now.
"I actually think there was a lot of information kicking about last year but we were massively distracted by a global pandemic."
Mr Withers added: "And if you were a food and drink manufacturer the guidance was changing by the day.
"But ultimately what the final trading model was going to look like didn't appear until Christmas Eve and I will repeat again the border operating models are 164 pages, it's complex stuff and it was published on 5pm on Hogmanay."
It is also believed Irish Loyalists have targeted border control staff and threatened them with violence.
This has led to staff being taken off the border meaning more delays for hauliers.
As of now, there is no plan for customs arrangements after April 1 and freight entering Northern Ireland from Great Britain after that date will be subject to the full rules of the Customs Union.

Not all employees can have their own office with a door to close so they can concentrate better. Actually, most employees must manage to be productive in spite of all the distractions around them like conversations between co-workers, noise from nearby phones and computers, foot traffic… And, then, of course, there are those who work in an industrial setting, where there is no end to the noise.
Fortunately, there are some strategies that you can put in place to boost employees' concentration. Here are our eight suggestions… You can choose the ones that best apply to your situation.
Define the spaces reserved for work and the proper conduct for that area. Keep the area as quiet as possible, limit movement, avoid having noisy discussions there, etc. Also define the areas where it is appropriate to have social interaction (cafeteria, common areas, kitchenette, etc.). Make it easy for employees to follow the rules by ensuring easy access to your meeting rooms or any other space where group work is possible and encouraged.
In some cases, a few simple adjustments to existing equipment are all it takes to limit distractions: lower the telephone ring volume, oil or replace squeaky office chair wheels, distribute "Do not disturb" signs and posters, etc. As well, an investment in slightly more costly equipment, such as partitions or headsets for phone and computer use, sometimes prove to be worthwhile.
Classical music with no lyrics played at medium volume, or recordings of nature sounds, appear to be conducive to concentration for office work. In the same work environment, employees who want to block sounds around them might find noise-cancelling headphones helpful.
Occupational health experts say that taking regular breaks boosts creativity, concentration and productivity. Even a quick five-minute break to go to the washroom and drink some water helps a person disconnect from the task at hand and go back feeling energized.
If you stop to take a break, you have to be able to get going again. Following a short routine may help you tune out distractions. It can be as simple as having a few sips of water and doing a couple of stretches before getting back to your work. The important thing is to develop a habit that tells your body it's time to concentrate.
Take advantage of the new technologies by making full use of shared calendars. If employees need some time with no disturbances, encourage them to block off time in a shared online calendar. You can also give them some "Do not disturb" signs that they can use to indicate the time that they will be available again.
Get your team members used to not disturbing their colleagues whenever they have a question, unless it's essential. They can include all their questions in a single email, call or meeting. Consider setting rules to limit needless or somewhat irrelevant email exchanges. If possible, allow employees to turn off email alerts or other distracting notifications on their computer.
8. Be flexible and responsive!
All environments and all workers are unique. What one person finds distracting might not bother someone else. Consult with your employees to find out what might help them concentrate better and be more productive. Some people are very effective teleworkers, while others might prefer to start working a little earlier. Demonstrate flexibility as much as possible to accommodate your team, and they will surely appreciate it.

I have terrible period pains. Sometimes it gets so bad that I can't even stand up straight or I have to take a day of at work. I am 18 of age and is really worried about it. My mother says that it is normal but I still think there is something wrong. I went to a gyneadoc and she told me there is nothing wrong. I also heard that there is this disease that causes this heavy pains but I can't remember the name. Is it possible for you to help me with some advice? I am tired of being on painkillers every month and my boss is getting tired of the fact that I am taking so much days off.
If the pain is there for the first day and then gets better, it is likely to be ' normal' period pains. You could try Ponstan, starting just before your period is due. The oral contraceptive Pill will also help. If it persists for longer, you may possibly need further tests.
You probaly have endometroisis which may cause heavy periods and pain,speak to your gynae about doing a Laparoscopy.You should also check your diet and weight ,if you are over weight it also causes back and abdominal pain when you have your periods.
