Soldiers and circus combine to consolidate peace in Colombia
EFEBy Jaime Ortega Carrascal Florencia, Colombia 19 Nov 2016
The Amazonas Circus, an initiative of the Jupiter Task Force - a unit of the Colombian 6th Army Division - whose purpose is to build a closer relationship with people living in the southern areas where it operates, includes clowns like Jose "Lagrimitas" Salamanca, seen here, plus trapeze artists, jugglers and other performers, all of them soldiers. EFE/Mauricio Dueñas Castañeda
The clown takes off his mask in front of the audience and under his colorful costume can be glimpsed a camouflage uniform; he then changes his big flappy shoes for military boots and bids farewell to the crowd at the circus staged by the Colombian army in what for years has been the southern war zone.
The show, which also includes trapeze artists, jugglers and other performers, all of them soldiers, is part of the Amazonas Circus, an initiative of the Jupiter Task Force - a unit of the 6th Army Division - whose purpose is to build a closer relationship with people living in the areas where it operates.
"The motivation is tremendous when you're in front of the audience and even more when there are children present - seeing them laugh makes me happy," a soldier who goes by the clown name of "Zapatico" told EFE - his real name is Luis Arbey Lopez and he has been toughened by 16 years in the military.
Together with his fellow soldiers Carlos Augusto "Cuqui" Lasso, Alvaro "Pinito" Prado and Corporal Jose "Lagrimitas" Salamanca, Lopez clowns around in funny shows under the blue tent that the Amazonas Circus takes to municipalities in the jungle province of Caqueta, which together with Putumayo and Amazonas make up the 6th Division's theater of operations.
The whole circus cast is made up of soldiers like Lopez, who for the last 3 1/2 years has combined his military tasks with entertainment in local communities, and who, like his colleagues the clowns, jugglers and trapeze artists, has trained in this art so different from waging war.
All kinds of people attend the circus, from students at Juan Bautista La Salle School in Florencia, capital of Caqueta, who laugh out loud at everything the clowns say or do, to housewives and army veterans getting ready to lay down their arms after 20 years of service, and who during their final months on duty take part in a program called "Aided Retirement."

Reid had been held in the Buffalo Federal Detention Facility for two weeks.
Baxter Reid, 26, was detained while trying to get into Canada to fulfill his visa conditions.
Australian man Baxter Reid, who said he was arrested by U.S. immigration officials for overstaying his visa by less than two hours, has been freed.
Reid had been detained at the Buffalo Federal Detention Facility in upstate New York for the past two weeks.
Immigration Judge Steven Connelly has given Baxter Reid 120 days to leave the country, according to Fairfax Media.
The 26-year-old Canberra man was staying in the United States on a B1/B2 five-year visa, a condition of which was that he left the country every six months.
Reid said he was attempting to cross the U.S. border into Canada with his American girlfriend Heather Kansco on April 24 in order to fulfill this visa requirement, but Canadian authorities denied him entry at the border.
He said his visa was due to expire at midnight that night. He was held by Canadian border authorities until 1.30am, which meant that when they sent him back to the United States he was arrested for overstaying his visa.
Reid's girlfriend, Kansco, told the Canberra Times that Canadian authorities were worried that, if he entered Canada, he wouldn't be allowed to return to the U.S, making him Canada's "problem".
"He was let out," Reid's brother Alexander said of his release.
"He's not deported or anything like that, so he can come and go," he told the ABC.
"He's in a good mood. He doesn't have to go to court again. He's done."
Kansco had set up a GoFundMe page to help raise money for his legal fees, which had raised $10,065 towards his legal costs as of Thursday. It's not clear what will happen to the donations now that Reid has been set free.

Microglia Hold "Memories"of Stress For Weeks
News Dec 05, 2018 | Original Press Release from Elsevier
Mixed rat brain cultures stained for coronin 1a, found in microglia here in green, and alpha-internexin, in red, found in neuronal processes. Antibodies and image generated by EnCor Biotechnology Inc. Credit: GerryShaw [CC BY-SA 3.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0)], from Wikimedia Commons
Using an animal model of chronic stress, researchers at The Ohio State University have shown that the immune cells of the brain, called microglia, hold unique signatures of chronic stress that leave the animal more sensitive to future stressful experiences, evident by increased anxiety and immune responses. Eliminating microglia so that these "stress memories" could not be maintained did not prevent the increased anxiety in response to later stress but did prevent the hypersensitive immune response.
The study, published in Biological Psychiatry, indicates that eliminating the microglia can reverse some aspects of stress sensitization, which lasts for over 3 weeks after chronic stress ends. The increased anxiety behavior, which was not prevented by elimination of the microglia, may have resulted from stress signatures maintained in neurons, which also persist for weeks after chronic stress.
"It is remarkable that memories of stress are not only stored in nerve cells, but also in the microglia, the immune cells of the brain. It is not the case that these immune cells can generate a representation of the stressful events. However, the microglia appear to be primed to produce a heightened immune response long after the stressful events that sensitized them have passed," said John Krystal, MD, Editor of Biological Psychiatry.
Co-senior authors of the study, John Sheridan, PhD, and Jonathan Godbout, PhD, study how chronic stress makes a person more vulnerable to events later in life that otherwise might not have caused stress. Using the same mouse model of chronic stress called repeated social defeat (RSD), they had previously shown that over 3 weeks after the stress ended, when the anxiety and the inflammatory response had diminished, they could recall both the behavioral and inflammatory responses with even just a brief exposure to the stressor. "This recall response indicated that the initial exposure to repeated social defeat resulted in sensitization of both neural and microglial populations that responded to less intense exposure to the stressor," said Dr. Sheridan.
Captured on Film for the First Time: Microglia nibbling on brain synapses
In this study, when the animals were briefly exposed to a stressful event 24 days after RSD, the sensitized microglia recruited large amounts of inflammatory cells called monocytes to the brain, a process that increases the chance that anxiety will return in previously stressed-out mice. This recruitment process depended on the presence of microglia, as it was prevented when the microglia were missing.
"Overall, microglia-specific priming can be reversed, but the effectiveness of this approach depends on the context in which you are testing," said Dr. Godbout. Stress sensitization involves hyperactive behavioral and immune responses, but only the immune component was prevented by eliminating and repopulating microglia.

Lately I've been looking into a new topic.
There are a couple of different services of which can get quite easily mixed up. Firstly "WTVML is a markup language that provides a content authoring format for interactive television service applications based on Internet standards." and also "Sky Active, which is an interactive entertainment channel that is a cross between a television channel and a magazine".
The possiblities of SkyActive & SkyInteractive are not quite clear as yet, however finding the time todo further research & development into the above is holding me back at present. However it would be nice to hear back from others who have had the time to look into or are currently developing for either of the above.


A football fan is celebrating after becoming one of the first female stadium announcers in the English Football League.
Laura Beth, who is 22 years old, stood in on Saturday after being asked to take the microphone at her beloved Rochdale AFC.
Despite some pre-match nerves, Laura said she "loved it" and hopes it will inspire other women to do the job.
To top off the day, Rochdale won, too, beating Scunthorpe United 3-1.
Laura Beth said she was "dreading it" after being asked to stand in for regular announcer Dave Sweetmore at Spotland but enjoyed a busy day on the public address system.
"It went really well, lots happening. There was a minute's silence, goals were scored by both teams and lots of match announcements.
"The reaction's been really good. I've had lots of comments and my Twitter followers have gone up by 800!"
For Laura, League One side Rochdale AFC is very close to her heart. "My mum and dad actually met at the football club - so it is very much rooted in our family."
She becomes one of just four women who have performed the role in the English Football League.
She also said she's been contacted by a woman who said she is going to try and get the job at Stockport County.
"So it has already inspired some people which is really exciting."
Emma Saunders, the regular stadium announcer at Premier League club Watford, travelled to Russia in 2018 to work as announcer during the World Cup.
The English Football League said: "We absolutely support any efforts made by our clubs to raise the profile of women working within our clubs and the wider game."


Whether you want an alternative to your morning coffee, a way to incorporate more fruits and veggies into your diet, or a full-body cleanse, juicing could be the solution you've been searching for.
Even if you generally eat healthy and enjoy daily doses of fruits and veggies, juicing helps reduce your digestive system's workload by skipping the breakdown process—when water and nutrients are extracted from food and fiber is discarded. Instead, the body can focus solely on absorbing the juice's nutrients.
Getting started is easy—just wash and prep your produce, throw it in the juicer, and let the machine work its magic. Most machines can handle the skin on fruits and veggies, but the flavor is often more pleasing sans skin or rind. Toss all prepped ingredients into your juicer, and if you choose to enhance the flavor with ginger, garlic, or other herbs, make sure to only add a small amount at a time.
When you think of a healthy citrus juice, what's the first liquid that comes to mind? If you said orange juice, you're in the majority. However, there are many combinations of nutrient-rich, detoxifying citrus fruits that reach beyond the popular drink. The next time you're serving up breakfast for the family or choosing an afternoon snack, try one of these refreshing recipes.

Q: Is there a way to give a specification about the allowed values of a non-type template parameter? For example, is there a way of saying "n must be larger than 2" in this code?
template<int n>
class MyClass
{
    ...
}

A: Use requires from C++20:
template <int n> requires(n > 2) // The parentheses are often optional, but not with this condition.
class MyClass
{
    // ...
};

Alternatively you can use a static_assert:
template <int n>
class MyClass
{
    static_assert(n > 2, "N must be less or equal to 2."); // The description is optional.
    // ...
};

The first option doesn't let you specify a custom message, but is "SFINAE-friendly", i.e. it's possible to check the condition from a different template without triggering the error on failure. But it doesn't let you specify a custom message. The first option is usually preferred.
The first option can be replicated pre-C++20 with std::enable_if_t, see @SamVarshavchik's answer.

A: The classical approach is to use an additional, defaulted, template parameter:
#include <type_traits>

template<int n, typename=std::enable_if_t<(n>2)>>
class MyClass {

// ...

(the gratuitous use of parenthesis is needed to resolve some parsing ambiguities, otherwise).
If the conditions are met, the fact that the template has, formally, an extra parameter gets hardly noticed.

Are freelance workers a security risk to your company?
If your temporary contractors are also working for other businesses, keeping your company's data secure is an even more urgent task.
The world of work is changing rapidly, with rising numbers of workers opting to become self-employed as increasingly powerful technology offers them more freedom. Many businesses are already restructuring themselves in line with this trend, creating much smaller in-house teams that are assisted by "radical freelancers" who trade their talents with many different companies at once.
"As technology continues to innovate, the workforce of tomorrow will progressively change," says Tess Smillie, vice president of human resources at Samsung UK. "Recent reports predict that 40pc of workers will be self-employed by 2020.
Yet while this may work well for both the new generation of workers and the organisations that hire them, it can also pose challenges from an IT-security perspective, as networks and sensitive data need to be opened up to those who are not directly in control of the business.
The situation can be more complex, however, when freelancers use their own IT equipment, says Wes Gyure, MaaS360 portfolio offering manager at IBM Security. "IT can choose to enforce a policy whereby all devices accessing corporate data must be both enrolled in the [mobile device management] server and compliant with security policies," he says.
A more practical arrangement could be to implement a bring-your-own-device policy. "The enterprise could create a separate container for securing its data on the device: one where it can put in controls to manage the data," he says. Users would then need an enterprise identity to access the data, which can then be removed along with confidential information once that person has finished the job.
There are security issues to consider, too: because a freelancer's device is not a company's property, essential updates and scans may not fall under the IT department's radar. Staying on top of all the devices on a company's network is essential.

"It's nice that someone is there in these times to take the initiative to create a new team, and I would love to help."
The first thing that the team must do is arrange its financials and sponsorship contracts in order to register the team, with furious activity going on behind the scenes, Blaudzun explained. "We are about to get a handle on everything. That includes riders and staff."
Blaudzun was most recently sports director at Team Designa Kitchen, which folded at the end of this season due to a lack of sponsors.

Buyers in Victoria face losing deposits
Hannah Blackiston
Buyers who have purchased off-the-plan apartments in Victoria which are scheduled to be completed this year may face losing their deposits due to new policy.
A policy created by the big four banks in line with new design standards will see the banks refusing to lend for one-bedroom apartments smaller than 50 square metres, which will affect buyers who have already secured pre-approval for an off-the-plan apartment which no longer passes the requirements.
Under the new policy, buyers who had secured pre-approval for funding on a property smaller than 50 square metres stand to lose their deposit as their approval is revoked.
iBuyNew CEO Mark Mendel is arguing that this isn't fair to buyers and that a change in policy post construction shouldn't affect approvals already secured.
"If banks are prepared to fund a development for construction then they should take the same stance on providing finance when it comes to the buyers of those off-the-plan apartments," said Mr Mendel.
"Many Melbourne apartment projects due to be completed in 2017 were designed in 2014 or prior, before the discussions about the new design guidelines had even been made public," he said.
As such, he believes the banks should be offering buyers of those apartments the same policy that existed when construction initially began on the building.
"Buyers of off-the-plan apartments should be able to go to the bank that funds the construction and take out a pre-approval that will last them until settlement," said Mr Mendel.
"This reduces a part of the risk for the buyer as they don't have finance risk. It also reduces problems for the developer as they don't have settlement risk and overall it's a win/win situation for the bank," he said.

There is far more to this world than taught in our schools, shown in the media, or proclaimed by church and state. Most of mankind lives in a hypnotic trance, taking to be reality what is instead a twisted simulation of reality, a collective dream in which values are inverted, lies are taken as truth, and tyranny is accepted as security. They enjoy their ignorance and cling tightly to the misery that gives them identity. Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening. Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over ignorance.

Dialogue – it is never too late to turn to dialogue
October 29, 2017 ~ Kate Wilson
It may seem that I am unquestioningly supportive of the Catalan Government's recent actions – the referendum and the announcement of Independence after a long period of frustrated attempts to engage Madrid in talks.
But behind the scenes I am always reading and talking and listening and doing my best to understand what is happening now and why it has come to this.
You can't really begin to understand the politics unless you start digging into some pretty unpleasant places where there are buried and half buried stories and emotions and histories. Just go to Twitter and read comments about Catalunya and Catalans and soon you are in vast chambers of grief and hurt and rage and sadness and fear.
(Can we start talking about Franco yet?)
A friend put a post on Facebook asking why Spain won't talk to Catalunya and why do many Spanish dislike Catalans so much. Some of the answers made me have to switch off the computer and go outside for some fresh air. Just reading the answers made my heart start pounding and my brain go into electric overdrive.
People from Spain are often the ones to start calling names and swearing and making wild accusations. From my detached point of view I wonder why they want Catalunya to stay when so many appear to have no care or respect for Catalans or their culture. But history is more than facts in a text book – there are real stories and everyone needs to be heard – even though it is difficult to listen to those who can't speak kindly or with empathy. It is clear there is a huge amount of buried feelings that when we begin to uncover them, burst forth in smelly gaseous putrid form.
But there is truth even in those places that we don't want to look. And I think it is vital to seek out those who have a differing opinion on this issue. There are people who want Catalunya to remain part of Spain and there are Catalans who feel Catalan and Spanish – it is a fact that many families have parents or grandparents from outside Catalunya and so of course they have mixed and complicated loyalties. Many people have found a leader in the person of Ada Colau who is the present mayor of Barcelona. She is a voice of reason and promotes a different view of how dialogue should lead the way, even if it takes a lot longer than the path we are now on. I don't know a lot about her party or about her but here is a recent message she put out on Facebook which while it is not my view, is a fair and reasonable opinion expressed in a decent and honorable way.
Ada Colau Mayor of Barcelona 27.10.17
"After talking about a train crash in the conditional or future tense for so long, it's difficult to take on the fact that today it has happened.
A decade of PP carelessness with Catalonia has culminated with the adoption of article 155 by the Senate today.
Rajoy presented the motion to the applause of his party and to the shame of all of us who respect dignity and democracy.
Were they applauding his failure?
Those who have been incapable of proposing a single solution, incapable of listening or of governing for all, have enacted a coup against democracy today with the annihilation of Catalan self-government.
On the same track, in the other direction, the pro-independence parties are in their, smaller train with no breaks, advancing at a kamikazi pace ("now is the moment", we're in a hurry"), after their mistaken reading of the results of the Catalan elections. Their speed has been the result of partisan interests, a headlong dash which has been consumated today with a Declaration of Independence in the name of Catalonia that doesn't have the support of a majority of Catalans.
We won't tire of repeating it: it's a mistake to renounce the 80% in favour of a negotiated referendum for the 48% in favour of independence.
Many of us have been warning of this danger for years and, over recent weeks, working in public and in private to avoid this collision. We're a majority, in Catalonia and in Spain, who want a halt to the trains and for dialogue, common sense and an agreed solution to take hold.
There's always time to turn to dialogue. Whatever happens, we won't cease to demand it. But now our task is to defend Catalan institutions and to fight to maintain the social cohesion and prosperity of Barcelona and Catalonia. We'll be with the people, struggling to make sure that their rights are not violated. Healing the wounds that all of this has caused and calling on people in the rest of the country to fight with us, because the democracy that is at risk today is theirs too. We will also continue to call on the Socialist Party to stop supporting those who have applauded Rajoy today, otherwise it will be impossible for them to be part of any credible or inspiring alternative.
I know where I'll be: involved in the construction of new forms of self-government that give us more democracy, not less. That includes working to kick out the PP which, with its cruel applause today, has celebrated the pain of a people. But also, above all, I'll be working to feminize politics so that empathy becomes an everyday practice that allows us to build broad consensuses through which diversity can become our greatest treasure.
Nor Article 155 nor Unilateral Declaration of Independence: not in my name."

Federer battles past Ruud to reach last 16 in historic win
Roger Federer eased past Norway's Casper Ruud 6-3 6-1 7-6(10-8) on Friday to become the oldest male player to reach the fourth round at the French Open in almost 50 years.
Playing in his 400th Grand Slam match, the 37-year-old showed little mercy to his 20-year-old Norwegian opponent, whose father Christian reached the third round when Federer first played on the 'terre battue' of Roland Garros as a wild card entrant in 1999.
Federer needed little more than an hour to pick up the first two sets, but a rare lapse in the Federer concentration allowed Ruud, ranked 63 in the world, to pick up an early break in the third set.
The Swiss reeled the youngster back in, forcing the game to a tie-break where he squandered three match points before winning 10-8.

As he signed autographs at the end, a female fan said: "Roger, I've never seen you sweat before, this is crazy."
Federer quipped back: "I know, I don't know what's going on, I must be getting old!"
Federer is making his first appearance at Roland Garros since he reached the quarter-finals in 2015. He withdrew from the event in 2016 and missed the entire clay court season in 2017 and 2018 to focus on grass.
Sounding relaxed in a post-match interview, Federer, one of tennis' most elegant playmakers, praised his opponent's tenacity - and his grunt-free ball-hitting. "He doesn't make any noise. I love that," he said.

 The present invention refers to a covering for surfaces.
 More particularly, the present invention refers to a covering of the type that includes a plurality of covering elements, secured to multiple profiles placed in parallel arrangement by means of some fasteners, each inserted, simultaneously, in a longitudinal groove of the profile, and in a groove or lodging of the covering element.
 Various coverings according to the previous description are known, for example, those disclosed by the patent documents FR2814184 and ES2285950. The document FR 2814184 discloses a covering comprising a structure formed by a plurality of covering plates having in their lower faces a guide formed by a groove leading to a cavity of greater dimensions, as to its cross section, than the opening pertaining to the groove, and longitudinal profiles perpendicular to the mentioned grooves of the plates, said profiles showing, as well, a profile guide formed by a groove that gives access to a cavity of greater dimensions, in cross section, than the groove, staying in the zones of intersection between the guides of the plates and the guides of the profiles some fasteners, simultaneously accommodated in cavities of both the guides of the plate and the profile. The fasteners, which cannot rotate inside the grooves, are secured by clipping, or elastic deformation of portions of the fastener into the groove and/or by means of screwing.
 The Utility Model document ES 1029601U discloses a similar covering, with guides in the cover plates and in the longitudinal profiles, wherein the fastener is inserted into one of the guides by elastic deformation. The patent document ES 2285950 discloses a similar covering, but suitable for outdoors, leaving an opening between the plates for lodging the fasteners, that can slide along the guides of the longitudinal profiles. The upper part of the fasteners is lodged in grooves of the side portions of the plates or covering elements.
 A problem associated with such coverings is the system for securing the fasteners. The fasteners must be secured in their position into one of the two grooves, to be able to further introduce them longitudinally into the other groove. To this end usually a screw or nail is utilized that secures the fastener to the profile. This gives rise to two problems. In the first place, the alignment of the fasteners must be very accurate. If it is not, the tight securement prevents adaptation and the fastener must be released and re-fitted. In the second place, as the fastener is so tightly secured, it may be necessary to break the covering elements for its removal in order to carry out, for example, maintenance or repair services. Additionally, being the fasteners so tightly fixed, the capability for absorbing movements due to thermal expansions or hygroscopic reasons is unnecessarily limited.
 It is an object of the present invention to provide a covering providing a low cost solution to the above mentioned problems.
 According to the present invention, the object is achieved by the provision of a dimensional interference between the fastener and one of the grooves into which it is introduced, when the fastener is introduced in the orientation corresponding to its installation. Such dimensional interference causes a pressure between the groove and the fastener retaining this latter in position. Furthermore, the present invention also provides that the fastener has an asymmetric structure, so that the dimensions of the fastener allow its rotation with respect to an axis which is perpendicular to the groove with which it dimensionally interferes, so that by rotation of the fastener the dimensional interference between the groove and the fastener is eliminated, allowing the fastener to slide freely.
 More particularly, the present invention comprises a covering, comprising covering plates, fasteners and longitudinal profiles, wherein each profile is provided with a guide which is configured to cooperate with a fastener. The guide comprises a groove that gives access to a cavity of greater dimensions, in cross section, than the groove. A lateral edge of each plate is provided with a second groove wherein the fastener is configured to cooperate with the second groove to clamp the plate to the profile. The fastener has dimensions which permit a rotation between a first position and a second position when the fastener is lodged within said guide. The fastener comprises a first shape in a first crosscut and a second shape in a second crosscut. The second shape of the fastener enters in dimensional interference with said guide in the second position. The first shape of the fastener is in the first position displaceable along the profile. The first crosscut is preferably essentially perpendicular to the second crosscut.
 The fastener comprises in a preferred embodiment a polymer material, preferably a thermoplastic material, such as PA (nylon), POM, PC, PP, PET or PE. The thermoplastic material may be reinforced by a reinforcing material, such as glass fibre, Kevlar fibre, carbon fibre, talk or chalk. The fastener is preferably made of an injection moulded thermoplastic material.
 The present invention discloses a covering comprising a structure formed by a plurality of cover plates joined by means of fasteners to longitudinal profiles, having said profiles in turn a guide profile formed by a groove which gives access to a cavity of greater dimensions, as to its cross section, than the groove, remaining said fastener housed simultaneously in the areas of intersection between the plates and the profile guides housed in the cavities of the guide profile and in a corresponding housing of the plate, being said housing corresponding to the plate a groove located in the side portion of the plate, and each fastener joining two adjacent plates and one profile. The fastener has such dimensions that allow its rotation between two positions when it is inserted within said guide, the fastener having as well an asymmetrical shape, so that in one of the rotation positions, corresponding with the installation arrangement, the fastener enters in dimensional interference with the said guide, while in the other position of rotation, such interference does not occur, causing such interference a braking action against the movement of the fastener along the guide.
 Thus, preferably, the fastener has two positions along two axes or planes, preferably perpendicular to each other. In the orientation corresponding to the first plane, the fastener enters one of the guides and slides longitudinally along the same and when it is rotated by 90.degree. a dimensional interference is caused with said guide, tightening and locking said fastener. In certain embodiments, the rotation can also cause a tightening as to the groove of the plate.
 Preferably, said dimensional interference causes the tightening between a wall defining the separation between the groove and the cavity of one of the guides and the fastener, while tightening among other elements of the guide and the fastener are also possible. For example, the tightening may occur by interference of the fastener and opposite side walls of the guide.
 According to a preferred embodiment, the fastener comprises, or alternatively is formed by, an elongated head, a first elongated neck adjacent thereto, a second neck adjacent to the first neck and a base adjacent the second neck, being it possible that the head and the first neck be introduced, simultaneously, in guides of two consecutive plates and being intended the second collar and the base to be inserted, respectively, into the groove and into the cavity of the guide of a longitudinal profile. Still more preferably, the first collar has, according to a first axis of symmetry, a width smaller than the width of the groove of the guide, and according to said second axis located at 90.degree. it has a width greater than the width of said groove, while the base has as said second axis located at 90.degree. a greater width than the guide groove in which is inserted, such when the fastener is rotated, said axis located at 90.degree. is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the guide where the base is placed and, due to the greater width of the first collar and the base with respect to the guide groove where the base is introduced, a tightening is produced by the dimensional interference of the fastener with the wall that separates the groove from the cavity of the guide in which the base is placed. A preferred way to obtain this tightening is that the distance between the first neck and the base be slightly smaller than the thickness of cited wall that separates the groove from the cavity of the guide in which the base is placed.
 Accordingly, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it comprises the covering, comprising a fastener with a maximum width of the base, in the first crosscut, is essentially the same, the same or smaller than a width of the groove, allowing the base to be introduced into the cavity through the groove.
 According to the preferred embodiment, the present invention comprises a covering, comprising a fastener with a width of the second neck, in the first crosscut, is essentially the same or the same as a width of the groove, wherein the fastener is configured to be guided by cooperating guiding surfaces of the second neck and the groove, respectively. More preferably the width of the second neck, in the first crosscut, is in the range of about 90% to about 100% of the width of the groove.
 According to a preferred embodiment said dimensional interference comprises cooperating between a first surface of the cavity and a second surface of the base. Said first surface of the cavity may be adjacent to the groove. Said dimensional interference comprises in an embodiment cooperating between a third surface of the groove and a fourth surface of the second neck. Said third surface of the groove is adjacent to the cavity.
 According to a preferred embodiment also, a thickness of material of the profile at the groove is greater than the distance between the first neck and the base in order to obtain said dimensional interference.
 More preferentially, the base has in respect to the first axis or plan of symmetry, a smaller width than the groove of the guide. This allows inserting of the fastener within any point of the guide, without the need to insert the same from the ends of the guide or other specific points of this latter.
 The fastener may be designed as well so that its rotation causes a possible dimensional interference within the guide of the plate. For example, by dimensional interference between the base and the opposed side walls of the cavity of the guide profile, or any other two side walls and/or opposed walls of the guide.
 Preferably, each plate has corresponding guides at each of its sides, and the adjacent plates show the arrangement of protrusions and recesses conjugated together. More preferably a certain play is provided between consecutive plates.
 The conjugated protrusions and recesses can be arranged either with or without play between plates. The borders of the play may be provided or not with conjugated protrusions and recesses, i.e. eventually with parallel borders between consecutive plates. The play may have the advantage of allowing drainage of water. Drainage of water may be advantageously for outdoor installation of the covering.

 FIGS. 1 and 2 show a covering comprising a plurality of covering elements or plates 1, 1', which rest on elongated profiles, parallel one to another. The plates 1, 1''and the elongated profiles 2 are secured by means of fasteners 3.
 Each of the fasteners 3 are placed simultaneously within guides 11, 11', located on the edges or unseen sides of the plates 1, 1' and inside guides 21 of the profiles 2 (the arrangement of the guide 21 within profile 2 can be seen in FIG. 7).
 Each plate 1, 1', has respective guides 11, 11', each one arranged on one side or edge 19, 19', running longitudinally along the plate.
 The guides 11, 11', show a hollow or cavity. The fastener can enter into the guides 11, 11' by pressing, or without it.
 The guides 21 of the profiles 2 run lengthwise along the profiles, being perpendicular to the guides 11 of the plates 1. Also, the guides 21 of the profiles 2 show a hollow or a cavity 212 which is, in cross section, larger than the groove 211 through which access is gained into the cavity.
 At the intersection or crossover points between the guides 11 of the plates 1 and the guides 21 of the profiles 2, fasteners 3 are inserted into the corresponding cavities of the crossing guides 11, 11', 21, fixing the plates 1 to the structure they hide.
 FIGS. 3 and 4 show the fastener 3 used in FIGS. 1 and 2. The fastener 3 shown consists of a flat, elongated head 31, whose function is to be inserted into the guides 11, 11', or side grooves of the plates 1, 1'. Immediately adjacent to the head 31, the fastener 3 has a first collar 32, also elongated, and followed by a second collar 33, of rounded shape and of reduced size in the example shown. A function of the first collar 32 is to cause a dimensional interference with the guide 21 in the locking position of the fastener 3. The longest dimension of the first collar 32 is bigger than the width of the groove 211 that gives access to the cavity 212 of the guide 21 of the elongated profile 2. Also, the shorter dimension of the first collar 32 is also smaller than the width of the groove 211 that gives access to the cavity 212 of the guide 21 of the elongated profile 2. A function of the second neck is to be placed in the groove 211 that gives access to cavity 212 of guide 21 of extended profile 2, with capacity of turn with respect to this one.
 After the second neck 33, the fastener has a foot or base 34 of bigger dimensions than the one of the second neck 33. The function of the foot or base 34 is to be placed in the cavity 212 of the guide 21 of the elongated profile 2, with rotational capacity within it.
 The fastener is complemented with a through hole 35 in order to possibly put a screw (not in principle necessary) and a groove 36 to split the head 31 into two portions. The non-use of the screw is, however, advantageous, because it allows for faster installation. Furthermore, once installed, the fastener without screw has some capacity to absorb movements, which may be beneficial in the case of expansion of the covering materials. The groove 36 allows a somewhat independent behaviour of each of the head portions 31 inserted into the guides 11, 11' or side grooves, enabling greater absorption of deformations due to expansion/contraction of materials.
 FIGS. 5 to 8 show a process of introducing a fastener 3 into the elongated guide 21 of the profile 2. As shown, the fastener 3 is inserted in longitudinal direction from the beginning of the elongated profile 2. Alternatively, it would also be possible to introduce the fastener vertically, to which end, in this case, some areas with bigger opening of the guide 21 (groove 211, see FIG. 6) could be provided. The fastener 3 is inserted with the head 31 and the first elongated neck 32 aligned longitudinally within the guide 21. That is, the long side of the head 31 is aligned with the guide 21. Due to the dimensions of the second collar 33 and the foot or base 34, the fastener 3 may slide to the desired position (see FIGS. 7 and 8). Once located, it is rotated 90.degree. to align the long side of the head 31 to the position that will have the guide 11 of the plate 1 (not shown in the figures).
 This produces a dimensional interference between the fastener 3 and the guide 21. In the case as shown, the dimensional interference causes a tight fit between the space between the first collar 32 and the base 34 of the fastener, and the wall 213 which defines the separation between the groove 211 and the cavity 212 of the guide 21 of the elongated profile 2. This leads to the locking of the fastener in its place. At the same time, the head enters into the guide of the plate already placed. It may also be desirable, or necessary, to finish entering the fastener 3 into the guide or groove of the plate by means of light blows with a hammer or mallet. After fixing the fastener, the consecutive plate may be positioned in place, making the free part of the head 31 to enter into the corresponding guide 11 of the plate which is being introduced. The fastener 3 is preferentially made of any suitable material, preferably a thermoplastic. The profiles 2 will be made preferably out of a thermoplastic material. The plates 1 can be made of any suitable material.
 FIG. 9 shows a perspective view of a solution to level the elongated profile 2. A good levelling improves fixing quality of the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 8. In particular, this levelling is accomplished by placing at regular intervals pegs 29, 29', 29'', 29''' of different heights, which permits to support the profile 9 when the distance between the support surface and the profile 2 is small. When said distance, due to the inclination of the supporting surface, reaches a certain value, it is possible to place variable height supports 28.
 The present invention is applicable both to horizontal surfaces (ceilings, flooring) or to vertical surfaces (walls).
 The present invention is valid for plates made out of any kind of material.
 The dimensions of the fasteners can be variable, in special the ones in the head 31 in relation, for instance, to the dimensions of the guides 11, 11'. For example, the shape of the head 31 could be substantially squared, or of another type. The shape of the lateral sides or edges 19, 19' could have no conjugated protrusions and recesses, or no separation could be provided between plates in its upper part 1 y 1'.
 FIGS. 10 to 12 show the whole process of introduction of a second embodiment of the fastener 3 into the guide 21 of the elongated profile 2. In FIGS. 9 to 11 the elements are identical or similar to the previous figures and have been designated with identical reference numerals names. In this case, the fastener is introduced perpendicularly to the guide, i.e., vertically. For this reason, unlike in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, the fastener can be introduced freely in any point of the guide 21. Hence, in this case, the foot or base 34 is elongated, having, therefore, a short dimension or width and a long dimension or length. In this case, the foot or base in its short dimension presents an inferior width compared to the groove 211 of access to the guide 21. As is to be observed in the figures, in this case, the width of the base 34 is the same as that of the second neck 33, while it has a length which is greater than the width of the said groove 211 of access to the guide 21. In this case, as it may be observed in the figures, the long dimension or length of the foot or base 34 is parallel to the groove 36 that splits the head 31 in two portions.
 FIG. 12 shows how the fastener 3 of FIGS. 9 to 12 is assembled with a tight fit or dimensional interference with the guide in this example. In this case, the dimensional interference is produced between the thickness of the wall 213 and the distance or the space of the existing void produced by the first neck 32 and the foot or the base 34, in such a way that produces a resistance by friction to the movement of the fastener along the guide 21.
 In this case, the interference is produced by a dimensional tolerance. Interference could also be obtained by means of conjugated shapes. It is also possible to combine different types of dimensional interference simultaneously.
 FIGS. 13 and 14 show a second embodiment of covering according to the present invention. In the figures, the same or similar elements of the previous figures have been identified with the same numeral references. As it is to be observed, this embodiment shows the use of the fastener 3 shown in FIGS. 10 to 12. In this case, the fastener 3 features longer portions 311, 311' in its head 31 and are introduced into the corresponding grooves 111, 111' of the adjacent plates or boards 1, 1'. The edges of the adjacent plates 1, 1' leave a groove among each other that allows the fastener 3 to be seen from the top.
 Multiple variations of the examples shown are possible, as well as the possibility to combine the various elements that have been shown in the preferred embodiments. For example, as a non limitative example, the foot 34 of the fastener in FIGS. 10 to 14 could be used in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 9, and vice versa. In a not limitative way, the various forms of tightening can also be combined among each other with the multiple shapes of the fasteners shown.
 While the present invention has been described relating to several examples of preferred embodiments, these should not be considered limitative of the invention, which will be defined by the broader interpretation of the following claims.

Just when you finished off your wardrobe for this winter and have started thinking about next summer, I am challenging you once more with something very beautiful for next year's fall.
Who said following fashion was an easy task?!
This Tuesday was a very snowy day in Paris but the guests who enjoyed the atmosphere in the Chanel Haute Couture salons were transported to another era, time and place. Karl Lagerfeld was inspired for his pre-fall 2011 collection by Byzantium, one of Coco Chanel's major inspirations when she was the first to launch a line of costume jewelry in the 1920s.
The Paris–Byzance Métiers d'art show broadcasted Chanel's specialist craftsmen that the French house has gathered under its umbrella: Desrues the costume jeweler, Lemarié the feather specialist, Lesage the embroiderer, Massaro the shoe-maker, Michel the milliner, Goossens the goldsmith and Guillet the floral accessory specialist.
In a decor reminding of an Ottomanesque chill-out room with 400 metres of squined fabric covering the walls, Lagerfeld revisited the bold colors and antique golds. Byzance and its splendor embellished every look from belts adorned with square glass beads to gold running through burn-out tweed and embroidered silks.
The make-up was kept in the same color family with one star product: The cream palette is combining five different golds and is said to be limited to only 1500 pieces.
This collection is for the modern Theodora empresses who might be Chanel's clientele of today. Celebrating Chanel's strong heritage is surely a smart move and one key to remaining a powerhouse in the decades to come, especially with the opening of a second Chanel boutique in Istanbul.

Meet the Team: David Menton, Managing Partner at Synova
David Menton, Managing Partner at Synova
David Menton is Managing Partner at growth investor, Synova, the private equity firm that backed our recent management buyout. We talk to him about his background, about Synova, and his thoughts on what the future holds for our partnership.
Tell us a little about you, and about Synova
I grew up in Dublin and was educated in London. My co-founder and I established Synova in our late twenties, which was probably more fitting for West Coast VC than European private equity. We believed that private equity needed to be part of the growth story of making great companies even greater, not merely being a cheerleader. Rolling our sleeves up alongside founders was key to our future success.
We launched in 2007, immediately preceding the global financial crisis, which brought with it a series of challenges amidst unprecedented (until Covid) market turbulence. It took us nearly three years to raise our first pool of capital, but we had a vision which was to create a new type of partnership (where Syn-nova is derived) with other founders and business-builders.
We were entrepreneurs, partnering with fellow entrepreneurs, to generate accelerated growth in their companies, and in turn generate class-leading investment returns for our investors. Our experience was in a relatively narrow group of sectors, which we believed were decoupled from the macro-economic challenges: companies that could grow organically, and by acquisition, irrespective of the climate.
What do you enjoy most about your role?
First and foremost, people. We are a people business. Whether it's recruiting smart young talent into our team, convincing investors to partner with us, or winning the hearts and minds of owners and managers in exciting growth companies, it's all about engaging with highly motivated, entrepreneurial individuals.
The other thing I enjoy most is being part of the growth story of the businesses we invest in. By not sitting on the sidelines we feel far more 'emotionally invested' in the outcomes. The teams we partner with often decide to work with us because of our experience and because they feel we will challenge them, and that they can challenge us.
What is your investment philosophy at Synova, and what do you look for in an ideal investment?
Our philosophy is to invest in a highly disciplined way in only our core sectors of expertise: tech, financials, health and services. We target companies with talented leaders that we believe have strong underlying fundamentals, which, with our support, can grow faster. We identify companies through our research team in those markets and track them (often for many years), building relationships with the founders and sharing our ideas, long before they are even considering an investment partner.
What attracted you to the JMG group as an investment opportunity?
Put simply: People. Market. Growth potential. We have a strong track record of investing in the financial services sector, insurance in particular. So, we knew what we were looking for. Nick Houghton had all the hallmarks of a great partner for Synova. Classically trained, leading a highly respected family-owned platform, with a top-class team around him.
The UK insurance distribution market remains highly fragmented, and we had recently supported the growth of another platform, Stackhouse Poland (led by JMG's now chairman, Tim Johnson). We believed, along with Tim and Nick, that there were a number of other similar operators across the UK landscape which we could bring together with JMG over time to strengthen the offering and provide nationwide coverage.
What does the future look like for the JMG group and Synova?
Synova is a long-term investor. And JMG is a genuine industry leader. We will continue to work with Nick and the team to support the recruitment of more talent, to continue to professionalise operations, and of course to find acquisition targets across the UK of likeminded brokers that add scale and niche products.
What JMG group CEO Nick Houghton says:
"When we started to search for a partner to help us carry out the MBO, it became clear early on that David and his team would be great people to work with. We wanted an investor who we felt brought more to the table than just capital and Synova's reputation in this regard is first class. And that's what we've experienced. It has helped us to treble in size in our first eight months together. Great businesses work with great people. It's simple – and David and his team bring a lot to the table that we didn't have before."

Serbia SEE Energy Mining News|SEE Energy News|MoU on gas interconnection between Bosnian and Croatian companies
MoU on gas interconnection between Bosnian and Croatian companies
Published on 4. August 2020. , SEE Energy News
In order to intensify works on gas interconnection between the two countries, Croatian natural gas transmission system operator Plinacro and Bosnian gas company BH-Gas have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
The MoU represents the continuation of lengthy cooperation between the two companies and aims to intensify activities on preparation and realization of projects related to gas interconnection between Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina at three connection points: southern interconnection (Zagvozd-Imotski-Posusje-Novi Travnik with branch to Mostar), northern interconnection (Slobodnica-Brod-Zenica) and western connection (Licka Jesenica-Rakovica-Trzac -Bosanska Krupa with branches to Bihac and Velika Kladusa).
The implementation of these projects ensures the diversification of routes and sources of natural gas supply for Bosnia and Herzegovina through the liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal on the island of Krk and the future Ionian-Adriatic gas pipeline, thus increasing natural gas transit through Croatia.
In February, BH-Gas, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the US Agency for International Development (USAID) have signed a grant agreement for the construction of gas interconnection between BiH and Croatia. BH-Gas said that the agreement would activate funds earmarked for environmental impact and feasibility studies for the interconnection project. At the same time, BH-Gas said signed a contract with a consortium led by Croatian consultancy firm Dvokut-Ecro for the preparation of a feasibility study and an environment impact study for the project. The cost of the feasibility study is 500,000 dollars, which will be financed by a USAID grant of the same amount, while the EBRD will manage how the USAID grant is being spent.

Best of the Bunch is a book blog hop hosted over at Always Lost in Stories on the last day of each month, where we can look back over the books we have read over this past month and give a Best of the Bunch award to our favorite book of that month.
With the holidays, I didn't get quite as much read this month, but I still read a few fantastic books!
And my December 2013 Best of the Bunch winner is . . .
Once again, my favorite book of the month was the last one I reviewed. There were actually a few really close runner-ups this month, though. (see below) But I had to go with All Our Yesterdays in the end because this book was just so unique and emotionally compelling.
Summary: "You have to kill him." Imprisoned in the heart of a secret military base, Em has nothing except the voice of the boy in the cell next door and the list of instructions she finds taped inside the drain.
So, what was your best December read?
