ASKING FOR £750 BUT REDUCED TO £600 OVER DEC/JAN FOR A QUICK SALE OVER THE CHRISTMAS PERIOD.
I'm selling my beautiful Halfpenny Esme wedding dress to give someone else the opportunity to wear this gorgeous dress. The fabric was different from everything else I had tried on and made the dress feel that bit more special.
Altered from a size 12 sample down to a size 8. I'm 5ft31/2 and wore 1 inch heels. The custom blue belt can be easily removed if preferred.
The dress is in fantastic condition. There are a couple of tiny marks on the back, but they are imperceptible and can't be picked up on camera. It's such a flattering dress.
The original retailed for £2,500. Dry cleaned and comes in its own box for long-term storage.
Once you send a message, Becca can invite you to purchase the dress.

Who is So Hyang?
Kim Sohyang was born in Gwangju, South Jeolla Province, South Korea, on 5 April 1978 – her zodiac sign is Aries, and she holds South Korean nationality. She is a singer and a writer of fiction and fantasy novels, who has been nicknamed 'the Korean Mariah Carey' due to her amazing vocal skills – So-hyang believes that her voice can help comfort people who are going through a lot in life.

Early life, family and education
So-hyang was raised as an only child in Gwangju by her parents, but who divorced when she was nine years old, a sad time for So-hyang, not living with both her parents. The financial situation of the family also worsened, and she had to eat less expensive food than prior to the divorce, and also wear less expensive clothes.

A post shared by 소향 💕 (@sohyang0405) on Jul 12, 2020 at 4:48am PDT
She found comfort in music, and started listening to singers such as Celine Dion, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey – to this day, her favorite album is still "Music Box" by Mariah.
So-hyang started singing while attending high school, and was encouraged by her teachers to pursue a career as a singer. After matriculation in 1996, she enrolled at Kyung Hee University from which she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2000, but then decided to focus on music rather than to work in her field of study.
Career as a singer
Sohyang's vocal skills have been praised by many popular musicians, such as Michael Bolton and Seth Riggs – she can sing from D3 to A6, and although Sohyang claims that she can sing up to E7, this hasn't been heard live as she has only sang up to A6. Her vocal type is Full Lyric Soprano.
Sohyang's debut song wasn't planned. She was heard singing "Mr." while spending time at a recording studio by Jo Hwan-gon, a composer, and he asked Sohyang if she was willing to record the song. It was released in 1996, becoming a hit, and Sohyang and Hwan-gon went on to attend multiple concerts together.
She eventually joined the band POS, and with them released several Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) albums – since then, Sohyang has become one of the most famous and influential South Korean CCM singers. Following her newfound fame, she's been invited to perform in more than 50 countries, and was the first singer from South Korea to sing the American National Anthem at a National Basketball Association (NBA) match. What also helped Sohyang gain recognition was singing with the gospel musician Kirk Dewayne Franklin.
In 2013 and 2014, she competed in several reality TV programs, including "Immortal Songs 2", "I Am a Singer 2" and "King of Mask Singer", and won the show "Immortal Songs 2" twice, while she also set an unbeaten record in "King of Mask Singer". After she sang Michael Bolton's song in "Immortal Songs 2", she was invited by him to tour together around South Korea.
At the 2015 Banff World Media Festival, Sohyang was presented with an award for her song "Lean on Me". At the very beginning of 2016, she was awarded a Seoul Success Award for Culture, which is the highest award.

In the same year she sang as Moana, the lead character in the South Korean version of the Disney's eponymous movie. By the end of 2016, she had started teaching singing at Baekseok University in Cheonan, South Korea.
She came back to compete in "King of Mask Singer" in March 2017, winning the show six consecutive times, and has to this day held the record for having the most consecutive wins – she lost her crown in July 2017. She was invited to sing the theme song for the South Korean TV series "Confession Couple" entitled "Wind Song" and it topped the Melon Chart as well as the Music Bank Chart.
The year 2017 also saw her sing at MBC Entertainment Awards at which she was awarded the Music Show's Special Prize.
In 2018, two ice dancers Alexander Gamelin and Yura Min performed to Sohyang's song "Arirang Alone" at the Winter Olympics, while Sohyang also opened the Olympics with Sumi Jo with the song "Here as One", which was created solely for this purpose.
Love life and husband
Sohyang met her future other half Kim Hee-jun, drummer of the band POS, in 1996 at a party organized for Christians – she is a strong believer and a devoted Christian, which is one reason why she fell in love with Kim, who is also very religious.
The two exchanged vows in 1998 at a small ceremony attended by their close friends and family, but only a year later, Sohyang was left infertile. It was believed by many of her fans that this would cause the two to divorce, however, they stayed together and Kim provided support to her when she needed it the most. They decided not to adopt, but to remain childless and focus on their careers.
Sohyang was only in a single relationship before meeting Kim – it lasted for around a year while she was attending high school, and they split shortly after matriculation as they went on to study in different cities.
So-Hyang is keen on writing fiction and fantasy novels. It started out as a hobby before she was encouraged by her husband to publish her first novel in 2013 – she has released many since and her two most popular are "Anaxion" and "Crystal Castle".
She likes to play the guitar and the piano in her spare time while she can also play a variety of other instruments.
So-hyang likes to travel and has been around the world to perform, while some of her favorite cities out of those she has visited are Paris in France, Los Angeles in California and Tokyo in Japan.
She is a lover of animals and has both volunteered and donated money to several animal shelters in Thailand.
Posted by So Hyang TV on Monday, 22 January 2018
So-Hyang likes to watch movies late at night, and some of her favorite actors and actresses are Jim Carrey, Julia Roberts and Anne Hathaway, and some of her favorite movies include "Ace Venture: Pet Detective", "Runaway Bride" and Notting Hill".
So-hyang was diagnosed with uterine cancer in 1999, and because it was discovered while being in its early developing phase, was able to undergo surgery and win the fight against cancer, but the procedure made her infertile.
So-hyang's age is 42. She has long brown hair and brown eyes, is 5ft 6ins (1.67m) tall and weighs around 100lbs (46kgs).
As of August 2020, her net worth has been estimated at over $10 million.

Q: Populate table with all foreign keys from other table's primary key I'm working on a Django application and created a new table tblA which has a foreign key that is linked to the primary key of tblB.
Now tblB already has several entries (and thus several primary keys in it already).
I want to run an SQL query that will create a new row for every primary key in tblA inside tblB with the corresponding foreign key copied and default values of all other columns in tblB inserted in the rows.
I hope I was clear enough!

A: you have forgot to paste your table structure .. I am considering as below-
tblA
(
aCol1_PK (primary key),
acol2_desc (description)
)
as of now just take an example of two columns only.
Now for table B
tblB
(
bCol1,
bCol2,
bCol3_FK (foreign key)
)
Now let say you have default values as -
bCol1 - "B_Col1_default_val"
bcol2 - "B_Col2_default_val"
for this situation if you want to insert rows for p_key from table A which is not present in Table B, you can try below query -
insert into tblB(col1,col2,col3)
 ( select 'b_col_default_val','b_col_default_val', acol1_pk
     from tbla a
    where a.acol1_pk not in ( select b.bcol3_fk from tblb b))

if you want to insert one row for all the primary key value present in table A then -
insert into tblB(col1,col2,col3)
 ( select 'b_col_default_val','b_col_default_val', acol1_pk
     from tbla a )

I hope it will help you ..
if you require any clarification you can ask/comment.

Humanity is a Religion (A defence for Elon Musk)
11 January 2021 11 January 2021 FADAKA LOUIS Leave a comment
Humanity is a religion? Oh well, I'll take you through every twist and turn it took to understand this statement, so let's get to it. These words hit me few months ago on a night I was just listening to some songs and when it hit me, it sounded cool or deep if you may. So I quickly dashed for my pen and book to scribble away, but after few attempts I realized that I didn't even understand what this statement means. So I decided to put writing on hold and think a little about this line.
Funny how the universe works, but I was going through my Twitter feeds late last week and I realized that Elon Musk was trending. Why was the real life Tony Stark trending? Well, at the time of writing this article, he was the richest man in the world according to Forbes. As expected, there were so many opinions about this new development but one that stood out for me was a tweet that read, "The God that did it for Elon Musk would do it for me".
Almost immediately, someone quoted the tweet saying "He is an atheist". That was something I never knew about Elon until last week so I engaged the tweet to see what other people had to say about it and one comment that really caught my attention was, "How come people who have no religion do well?"
Intrigued and unsatisfied by the response to that tweet, I decided to check out some interviews of Elon. In one of the clips, he was asked if he considered himself a super hero or a super vilian but he simply said, "I'm just trying to add a positive input to humanity." At that instant, the title of this article made more sense.
A lot of people around the world, believe and express love for different supreme beings but one thing that is missing more often than not, is love for humanity. We have been too concerned with trying to please a supreme being we can't see just so we can enjoy the after life but have failed to recognize and extend a little love to the people around us that we can see. What am I trying to say? If we all put a little of the love we put into our various beliefs into the human race, then the world would be a better place. Humanity is a religion, everyone can be a part of this religion because all it takes is having a positive feeling called love towards those around you.

Playroom Escape is a new game developed by Games 2 Rule. Have fun playing! When you are still a kid you always play in your playroom and sometimes fall asleep while playing. You miss playing in your playroom and you miss all your toys there. Then you went to your playroom and play again with your toys even though you are an adult now. You fell asleep there for an hour, when you woke up it is already late and you wanted to go to your room. But there is a problem, the door is locked and you can't open it. You tried to open it by force, but still it won't open. You have to look for a way to escape from that place. Good Luck!

The winter months are still among us and with it, more attention is drawn to warmth. Maybe you've overlooked your fireplace or put off upgrading it. But now is the time! Check out these upgrades that will give your fireplace new life.
Add glass doors – Section off your fireplace with glass doors. This small change brings a sense of elegance to the area.
Add a mantle – A mantle is the frame around the fireplace. This can be created from a variety of materials but helps create more space for you to use in decorating and bringing a room together. Pictures, candles, plants, or even unique items can help tie in the fireplace with its surroundings.
Tile the hearth – The hearth of a fireplace is often overlooked. Add some tile to this area to give it its own character as well as help prevent soot from creeping onto your floor.
Stone-Veneer – Create a stone-veneer that reaches to the ceiling. Check out our local hardware store to determine which stone would best suit you and your home. Then send people's eyes to the sky by creating a tall stone-veneer accent that mimics the chimney.
Add art – A fireplace is generally a major focal point in a room. Livening it up as well as adding art is a great way to accentuate this feature even more. Have fun, be creative, and add your own touch.
Make it gas, or add candles – Another hot trend right now is converting a wood-burning fireplace to gas. Not only does this help with the cleanup, but also it makes starting the fire and maintaining it a much easier task. On the flip side, consider adding an array of tall, wide, and elegant candles inside your fireplace. Doing this adds a more modern look to the fireplace while still displaying its sense of warmth and welcoming, just in a unique way.

Q: Are there any side effects for C code using data structure allocated using operator new a.h
struct S1{...};

extern "C" struct S1 *f();

A: Memory is memory, it doesn't really matter which allocator provided it, as long as it's correctly aligned and allocation and deallocation functions are correctly matched (and the structure definition is the same). There should be no problem.

D.C. United finds right midfield partnership in first win of 2014
By Seth Vertelney
Perry Kitchen and Davy Arnaud worked perfectly together as they helped their team defeat New England 2-0.
WASHINGTON — D.C. United finally won an MLS game Saturday night, and in the process it may have discovered a winning combination at central midfield.
Starting together in the middle for the first time, Perry Kitchen and Davy Arnaud combined to cover nearly every blade of grass as United defeated New England 2-0 at RFK Stadium on Saturday — the team's first league win since August.
"I thought they both had very good games. I think they're both warriors," United coach Ben Olsen said about the duo after the game.
Arnaud — acquired from Montreal in the offseason — played outside midfield for United's first two games of the season, but came in the middle after Luis Silva was injured in the first half of last week's 2-2 draw with Chicago.
When partnering the offensive-minded Silva, Kitchen is forced to play a strictly defensive role. But with Arnaud, the players are able to share defensive duties, allowing the 22-year-old to get forward more than he's used to.
"I know when I leave a spot and try to go put pressure on a ball and try to go forward, I know Perry is going to be there to cover and vice versa," Arnaud said. "I told Perry, I know he has the tendency to sit a little bit more, but I told him in the right moment to go ahead because I'm comfortable covering for him as well."
Kitchen is known primarily for the defensive side of his game but free from some of his normal defensive duties, he can impact a game on the other end of the field as well. Against Chicago he scored a goal, and versus New England he played a perfect through ball for Nick DeLeon that would have been a goal if not for the wide man's heavy touch.
"Davy's a guy who's going to put in a great shift," Kitchen said. "He's a guy that can get forward and he's also a guy that can help out if I get up high too. It's good to know that he's a guy that can put in a shift and allow me to get a little higher if needed."
Olsen agreed with his young midfielder.
"Davy was a stud tonight," he said. "I'm happy for him. He seems comfortable in that central position, which is nice."
For United, the win was certainly nice, but if the team found a wining formula in the middle of the field, it will be worth even more than just three points in the standings.

Therapy dog Ruby Rose and her handler Barbara visiting with children at a Bridges to Compassion session. Ruby Rose is a Lab mix.
Bridges to Compassion, our humane education program, teaches children important social skills (accepting diversity, overcoming fear, preventing bullying) while building trust, self-confidence, and communication. Therapy dogs help us illustrate and practice concepts while inspiring and motivating kids. While interacting with the dogs, kids practice the Three Ps: patience, success through practice, and positive reinforcement. The program can run 4 to 12 weeks and can be tailored to classrooms, camps, and residential facilities for children of all ages. Bridges to Compassion is appropriate for all children including at risk youth and children with emotional or behavioral issues.
Tell us a little about your organization and why you would like to add a Bridges to Compassion program.
Thank you! We will get back to you soon with information about Project Canine's Bridges to Compassion program.

I saw this article and found it pretty awesome. I myself wouldn't mind trying some insects! H owever, when I read this article the first thing that popped into my mind was if the insects were exposed to any pesticides. It reminded me of our DDT discussion where animals were dying when they ate insects that were exposed to DDT. What do you guys think? Would you eat a grasshopper or a meal worm?

ICELAND : REVISITED THE BEST AND WORST AT EUROVISION
By ajmained on April 21, 2017 • ( Leave a comment )
Some of you may recall that last year I published a best and worst at Eurovision article for every country that was taking part in Eurovision 2016 with the exception of Australia who were only competing for the second time. So this year I will publish one for Australia and Portugal who are returning. Also I will revisit each of the other countries to see if last years entry has entered the best or worst hall of fame. Now that the National Finals season is finished and all songs for Eurovision 2017 have been selected we now have 2 weeks where we wait for the rehearsals to begin in Kiev. What better way to fill the time than to look back over the 61 years of Eurovision at some of the best and worst entries that countries have sent to the Eurovision stage. There were 43 countries going to Kiev to take part in the 2017 edition of our favourite musical extravaganza, until 22nd March when Ukraine authorities placed a ban on the Russian entrant Yulia Samoylova entering Ukraine. Then on April 13th it was announced that Russia had officially withdrawn from this year's contest as announced in our article here. So we continue our journey with Iceland who have never won the contest but have come 2nd twice and finished top 10 on 3 other occasions in 29 appearances. They have also come last on two occasions. You can check out the previous articles from last year in the best and worst series for Ireland HERE ,Spain HERE, Austria HERE, Bosnia & Herzegovina HERE, Iceland HERE, Belarus HERE, Denmark HERE, Georgia HERE, Germany HERE, Cyprus HERE, Finland HERE, Belgium HERE, Hungary HERE, Switzerland HERE, Ukraine HERE, Moldova HERE, Estonia HERE, Norway HERE, Italy HERE, Slovenia HERE, The Netherlands HERE, Armenia HERE, Azerbaijan HERE, San Marino HERE, Israel HERE, Albania HERE, Poland HERE, Serbia HERE, France HERE, Romania HERE, Russia HERE, Croatia HERE, Czech Republic HERE, Malta HERE., Macedonia HERE, Lithuania HERE, Latvia HERE, Sweden HERE, United Kingdom HERE, Greece HERE, Bulgaria HERE and Montenegro HERE.

So this year Iceland are represented by Svala with the song 'Paper'. We will have to wait and see if it turns out to be more of a best or worst song for Iceland but the overall reaction is fairly positive so far. You can look back at our article where we interviewed Svala here.
So last year Iceland were represented by Greta Salóme with the song 'Here Them Calling'. So how did Greta do in Stockholm? Well she failed to qualify for the Grand Final after coming 14th in her Semi Final. This is the second time running that Iceland has failed to qualify from a Semi Final and is actually their third worst result to date. However I am unable to welcome her into the hall of fame as one of the best or worst entries for Iceland.
So my selections for best and worst entries are based on a combination of actual results and personal taste.
First off I am going to choose one of the worst entries for Iceland. Back in 2006 in Athens we were subjected to Silvia Night with 'Congratulations'.
Now Silvia Night is a fictional satirical character devised and played by Ágústa Eva Erlendsdóttir. The song and character caused nothing but controversy from start to finish. The song had been distributed online before the cut off date but this was allowed. Then in Athens Silvia upset fans, journalists and more importantly the Greeks too. When she arrived on stage in the Semi Final there was a noticeable amount of booing from the audience. The performance of the song itself was outlandish and also controversial because of a certain swear word that she insisted on keeping in. On the night she sang the word freaking instead of the original word. Iceland came 13th with 62 points therefore failing to make the Final.
Moving along now to look at one of the best entries we have seen from Iceland. We go back to 1999 and we are in Jerusalem where we see Selma with the song 'All Out Of Luck'.
Now Selma was in the rather unaccustomed position for Iceland of being one of the pre-contest favourites. We saw a vibrant vocal and visual dance display from the two 'eejits' as Terry Wogan said. When it came to the voting Selma shot into an early lead but was gradually pegged back by Sweden. She was narrowly behind when the penultimate set of votes from Bosnia awarded Sweden 12 and Iceland 0. So ended in 2nd place with Iceland's best result to date with 146 points.
The next entry that was one of Iceland's worst entries was from Halle Margret with the song 'Hægt og hljótt' which graced the stage in Brussels in 1987.
Now this was only Iceland's 2nd entry and remarkably it finished in the same position as the first one, 16th, but with a few more points, 28. The song was a rather aimless ballad with a very laid back style that did not catch many imaginations. It was about the end of an evening at a restaurant or a nightclub, at which point "We all disappear slowly and quietly into the night". Sounds like my kind of night out these days.
Back to another entry from Iceland that brought them their best result up to that point. The year was 1990 and we were in Zagrab to see the group Stjórnin perform the song 'Eitt lag enn'.
Now I really loved this song which was a love duet about each others desire to dance to one more song with each other. Boy did they take that lyric to heart with a lively and memorable dance routine. The consequence being it came in 4th position with 124 points.
So moving on and my final song from Iceland that I think is one of the worst entries is from 1989 in Lausanne. The performer was Daníel Ágúst Haraldsson with the song 'Það sem enginn sér'(What No one Sees).
Now I always felt this was doomed from the start. In the National Final for Iceland that year Daniel won a cactus for getting the golden ticket to Eurovision. I think he was still miffed come the contest itself as his style of presenting his ballad was very lacklustre indeed. It went on to receive null points in the voting finishing 22nd and last. The song become known in Iceland as "Það sem enginn heyrði" ( What No one Heard) due to it's abysmal result.
So I have reached my last song for Iceland and it's a case of saving the best bestie till last. The year was 2009 and we got to see Yohanna perform in Moscow with the classy 'Is It True?'
Now this song is a power ballad with a fantastic vocal and as is traditional in Iceland included backing singers who went on to represent Iceland in future years( Fredrik Omar and Hera Bjork). It finished in 2nd place with 218 points.It went on to chart success in 14 European countries including the UK.
So there we have it folks, my little delve into Icelandic Eurovision history and some of the best and worst moments over the years. Do you agree with all or even any of my choices? Feel free to comment below.
This series will continue with another look at songs over the years for each and every country competing in Eurovision 2017 so keep coming back for more reflections of the best and worst that Eurovision has had to offer us.

For this week, I decided to make wheels for my antisocial robot. My main design constraint was that I wanted to cast a silicone tire around a rigid hub. This meant that I had to design some kind of locking mecanism to prevent the silicone from slipping off the hub.
As usual, I modeled my design in Fusion. For my first iteration, my wheel was a simple extrusion with little semi cylinders interlocking with the hub. The structural problem with this design was that the tire could slip in the lateral direction (it was only fixed along the radial directions). Also, this design did not utilize 3-axis machining, which was the main purpose of the assignment.
Bound and determined to make something useful from this assignment, I tried a second iteration wheel design. This time I included holes through the hub for the silicone to flow into and hopefully lock the wheel. This design also included some charming filleted edges (yay 3-axis machining).
I wasn't sure if this would be easy to pour because the distance between the hub and the edge of the mold was only about .25 inches. I really didn't want the tire to be thicker than that so I decided to mill it out and see what would happen.
Preparing the model for the shopbot was a hassle, mostly because I have no experience with mastercam. It turns out you only want to import the surface of your model that will be milled by the machine. Calvin, Eytan and Zach helped me prep my model for milling. I ended up using a 1/8" flat endmill, a rough cut pass, and a radial finishing pass.
The milling job itself only took about 15 minutes. The surface finish was pretty decent, but certainly not shiny smooth. Next I needed to drill a hole through the center of the wheel mold so I could clamp the hub to the wax mold with a screw and nut.
Nicole, Eytan Calvin (what teamwork this week!) helped me set up the drill press. And let me just say, this was the most complicated set up for a drill press I have ever encountered. Instead of a simple table I could just clamp my wax mold to, this drill press had a vice. Because my wax was so small, we had to use several scrap pieces of wood to center my mold to the drill bit. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to take a picture of this set up.
The longest 4-40 screws I was able to find at the hardware store were only 1.5 inches long––the same length as the height of the wax. This meant that I had to somehow shorten my wax for the screws to go all the way through. Instead of trying to slice the bottom off my mold, I used a countersink drill bit to dive about 1/2 inch into the bottom of my wax mold.
I lasercut my wheel hubs out of 1/4 inch model plywood. I chose plywood because of the natural porosity of the material. I thought the silicone would bond better to the wood than to an acrylic.
I fixed the wheel hub to the wax mold with the screw and a nut. I used a wrench to make sure the hub was securely pressed against the mold.
At this point, I had already spent about 3.5 active hours making the mold for these wheels. I was definitely ready to start pouring. I mixed the OOMOO mixture as per instructions and tried to carefully pour it into my mold. This turned out to be very difficult because the OOMOO was much more viscous and goopy than I expected. Halfway through, I tried tilting my mold to see if that would help, but that made pouring harder.
I let the silicone set overnight then pried my wheel out with a set of pliers. Unfortunately, I was a little too aggressive and chipped my hub, but the wheel came out pretty clean.
I also tried casting a second wheel by piping the OOMOO into the mold with a plastic bag. This method was much easier to control than the first pourig method.
I trimmed the extra petals of silicon along the edges of the wheels. Not a perfect job, but it's probably fine for this iteration.
The wheel has a few problems that I might need to address... A minor problem was the lack of control of the finish/flatness of the flat side of the wheel. But, the main problem was that the wheel was imbalanced which may cause stress on my axles (depending on my design). I may find I need to cast wheels from a two-sided mold. But that's a problem for another week.

Q: A word for "set to zero" Is there a word that entails the meaning of "I set it to zero"?
Note how this may not necessarily mean you reset something, as its default value may be something other than zero.

A: Tare (from Wiktionary):

To set a zero value on an instrument (usually a balance) that discounts the starting point

So for instance, if you have a kitchen scale you can say:

I tared the scale. Throw in the next ingredient.

For measuring instruments other than weighing scales you can use:
Zero (from Wiktionary):

To set a measuring instrument to zero; to calibrate instrument scale to valid zero.

A: I believe that there are many ways to express this, and the most appropriate one depends on the context. For example

*

*zero out: phase out or reduce to zero. Or zeroed.

*nullify: make of no use or value; cancel out. Or nulled.

However, just using set to zero sounds reasonable to me...

A: Tare
The correct scientific term is tare, as stated in the previous answer quoted from Wiktionary.

Kosovo and Transitional Justice: The Pursuit of Justice After Large Scale-Conflict
Book Description Table of Contents Editor(s) Reviews Instructor Resources Support Material
This book analyses efforts to achieve justice in Kosovo for victims of crimes committed during the conflict in the 1990s, relating this to broader debates on transitional justice.
The war in Kosovo has come under the jurisdiction of a number of mechanisms which fit within the broader framework of transitional justice. These include international tribunals (the ICTY), international organisations with judicial mandates within Kosovo (UNMIK and EULEX), ad-hoc hybrid tribunals (the Kosovo Specialist Chambers) and truth-seeking mechanisms (RECOM and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission). Collectively, these developments make Kosovo a profoundly important case study on the contemporary efficacy of transitional justice. This volume analyses the nature and impact of the various mechanisms employed to date in Kosovo to determine their effects within the country, and their broader international significance. Various critical issues are examined through an exploration of the institutional mechanisms employed in each case, their coherence with existing theories on "best practice" principles, and the broader implications of their efficacy in Kosovo.
This book will be of much interest to students of transitional justice, statebuilding, Balkan politics, and International Relations in general.

Furtuna Sheremeti is a doctoral researcher at the Institute of Criminology in KU Leuven, Belgium.
'This book will rapidly become a standard point of reference for anyone seeking an understanding of the immense crimes of war and their mainly civilian victims during the war in Kosovo. The book highlights the international attempts to record the facts surrounding the horrific atrocities that took place, in particular also sexual violence, and to establish the responsibility of their authors—a process that has remained sadly unbalanced, patchy and incomplete to this day.'--Marc Weller, Director of the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law, University of Cambridge
'Kosovo was a highwater mark of international transitional administration of a country after war and the former Yugoslavia a highwater mark for the level of international and national prosecutions of war crimes. That makes this treasure trove of information and insights about transitional justice in Kosovo such an important book. The contributors have deep knowledge and sophistication about what kind of justice Kosovo's victims received and the implications of this for the most central debates about the character of transitional justice. I thought I knew a bit about conflict in Kosovo, but learned so much that was new by reading this book. Those who engage with it will see more clearly how profound are the paradoxes of transitional justice.'--John Braithwaite, Australian National University
'The pursuit of justice, healing and repair after large-scale and devastating conflict is a never-ending, perpetually painful and rather frustrating journey. This book reckons unabashedly with this journey by critically analyzing the painstakingly ambivalent and complex work of 'justice' of both international and local judicial mechanisms and courts, but also by bringing into the picture alternative and courageous narratives in the search for justice as exemplified through grassroots and survivor-led activism and artistic engagements in Kosovo. Intellectually engaging and highly informative, this book must become required reading for all interested in transitional justice more generally and the case of the Kosovo conflict in particular.'--Brunilda Pali, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven

Koshenina v. Buvens
Kosheniva v. Buvens, --- So.3d --- (Fla. 1st DCA 2014), 2014 WL 304889
At issue in this case was the proper standard for reviewing (and possibly overriding) a ward's designation of a pre-need guardian. Here, the ward named her husband as her preneed guardian at a time when her capacity to do so was questionable. The trial court initially named her sibligns as her emergency temporary guardians, and ultimately appointed them as her plenary co-guardians instead of her husband.
The Appellate Court had two distinct problems with the trial court's analysis:
(1) Validity of Declaration of Preneed Guardian
After hearing evidence from her lawyer, who said the ward was competent when she executed the Designation naming her husband as her preneed guardian, and conflicting evidence from doctors regarding her ability to execute such a document, the court held that it "seriously questioned" her ability to know what she was doing when she executed the Designation and ultimately held it was in her best interests for her siblings to act. It did not, however, make an actual ruling on whether the ward was competent when she executed the designation.
The Court held that the trial court must make a definite ruling on this issue, and explained, "whether a ward was competent to make a decision regarding who will be her preneed guardian, is whether the ward had the capacity to generally understand the nature of the decision she is making and its implications." It said that if on remand, the ward was determine to have been competent to execute the Designation, then that designation is entitled to a rebuttable presumption, discussed below.
(2) Standard for Overriding Declaration of Preneed Guardian
The Court then considered the proper standard for overriding a ward's properly designated preneed guardian. F.S. 744.3045(4) provides that, "[p]roduction of the declaration in a proceeding for incapacity shall constitute a rebuttable presumption that the preneed guardian is entitled to serve." But, the trial court is not bound to appoint the preened guardian if that person is found disqualified. Even if the person designated is qualified to serve, F.S. 744.312(4) states that the court should appoint the preneed guardian, "unless the court determines that appointing such person is contrary to the best interests of the ward."
The trial court's finding only stated that appointing the ward's siblings was in the best interests of the ward. The Court held that the proper standard for overturning a properly executed designation of preneed guardian would be a determination that the appointment would be "contrary to the best interests of the ward." The Court explained the distinction between "best interests" and "contrary to the best interests," by emphasizing the importance of giving the ward's designation great weight. It held that at a minimum, a finding that another relative might be a better caregiver is not enough to satisfy F.S. 744.313(4). Instead, the Court held, F.S. 744.312(4) requires a hurdle to show that specific actions/inactions of the designee are sufficiently egregious as to be "contrary to" the "best interests" of the ward thereby justifying a change in the status quo.

The same is true if you find yourself always chasing clients for payments How to find a good accounts receivable factoring companies? Create a receivables aging schedule. Or if payment is due in 45 days, they might stretch this out to 60 days or longer. As your small business grows, you may need to split these tasks among different people to stay on top of all the accounts. Unfortunately, small businesses often come out on the short end of the stick when it comes to accounts receivable collections — especially when doing business with large corporations.
Essentially, decide on an average point at which very late accounts typically become uncollectible accounts and estimate your doubtful accounts by age.

If you go the accounts receivable financing route, there may be additional fees and interest. This will give you a percentage of total sales that went unpaid. You also need a way to keep close watch of unpaid customer invoices.
Difference Between Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable The difference between accounts receivable and accounts payable is pretty simple. A company with a higher ratio shows that credit sales are more likely to be collected than a company with a lower ratio. These should detail the business's various customers and their order amounts, along with whether or not those customers have paid for their orders in the past. Unless you are a publicly-held company though, there is no need to strictly follow this organization. Place the totals for each column on the bottom row of the spreadsheet. The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded before the actual accounts are or are not paid. This means that 97% of customers will end up paying the company for its services or products.
Use this info to vet them so you are making proper credit decisions. Reserves are used to record money set aside to cover all sorts of issues, ranging from warranty return expectations to bad loan provisions at banks. Generally, the older and more overdue a receivable becomes, the less likely it will ever be collected. Create a solid internal process. Sadly there is no yet discovered magic that can help make sure your invoices turn into cash, but diligent accounts receivable management can surely do the trick! This is a less sophisticated account receivable example than the retail consumer credit card, but it works the same way. When accounts receivables are not paid, some companies turn them over to third party collection agencies or collection attorneys who will attempt to recover the debt via negotiating payment plans, settlement offers or pursuing other legal action. From first contact, keep notes on the order, conversations and agreed-upon terms.
The terms, due dates, and credit limits vary among businesses and industries. For instance, the retail industry is famous for offering store credit with special credit cards where customers can purchase merchandise from the store and pay for it at the end of the month. For example, make sure your invoices are clear and complete, with no missing information that might cause your client's accounting department to kick it out of the system for further review. Determine the process for performing accounts receivable, and stick to it. This payment model carries an inherent risk that the customer may default and the business will not be able to collect the money it is owed.

Chania is the capital city of the prefecture of Chania. This beautiful city, located on the north shore of Crete, is an ideal base for exploring the whole island. The prefecture of Chania covers the west part of the island and its important towns: Kastelli, Paleochora, Kandanos and Chora Sfakion.
(45 minutes) during winter and four during summer. The International Airport is located 11 km outside the city on Akrotiri. There are also two daily boats from Piraeus (Athens) to Souda.
The prefecture of Chania offers tourism services and activities of all kinds covering all demands. The city of Chania preserves all the features of the Venetian rule times. The White Mountains (Lefka Ori), rising behind the city and diving south in the Libyan Sea in the area of Sfakia, consist of numerous gorges for nature-lovers and enthousiastic mountaineers. The sandy beaches and the deep clear waters in them (Elafonissi, Falassarna, Paleochora, Georgioupoli, etc) are ideal for swimming. The minoan, roman and byzantine archaeologocial sites are tempting for those interested in cultural and historical explorations - please click here for maps.
Geography: The county of Chania covers the western part of Crete and has an area of 2.376 sqkm and with a population of 140,000 residents (1991 inventory). The county is divided into 5 provinces with the capital the city of Chania (52.000 population). Since 1999 the county is divided into 23 counties and 2 provinces. The north area of the county with very welcome seas ends up to 3 peninsulas. Concerning the south side of the island towards the Libyan sea it presents the biggest amount of sunlight in Europe. North, west and south the county is surrounded by sea.
Why to visit Chania: Chania is regarded as a very picturesque small city of Greece, with a lot of life during the summer months, friendly people, blue sea and sky, and sandy beaches. The famous old town with its small streets and the Venetian buildings, the picturesque Venetian harbour with the Lighthouse and the Firkas castle create a majestic, romantic atmosphere which can be rarely found in Europe.
Chania is an ideal destination to combine the romantic atmosphere of the Venetian Town with the touristic facilities that have been created during the last years; the well-organised sandy beaches west and east of the city, the numerous cafes, restaurants and tavernas along the old harbour and the seaside villages, the endless waterfront to the west and the east of the city, the beach-bars on the sandy beaches, the seaside clubs and bars outside the city.
Chania is also an ideal location to explore the rest of Crete since the distances are not really a big deal; you can find some of the most unique sights and natural beaches of Crete in less than 60 minutes distance in south and west Crete, the most famous archaeological sites of Knossos and Phaestos dating thousands of years ago in the nearby districts of Heraklion and Rethymnon, the remaining of the Turkish and the Venetian castles dispersed in many remote villages of the island, the existing Venetian Monasteries and Churches. Here you can also try to pass the longest gorge of Europe - Samaria Gorge1 17 km length - and visit some of the purest, traditional villages of Crete.

Following a stellar swimming career, Wallace becomes the latest athlete relationship manager to join the team at The Transition Phase
"Athletes are crucial to the working environment, and they can bring a lot to a business"
ttp20192022-06-07T15:10:00+00:00
Scotland's Dan Wallace has recently joined TTP as the newest athlete relationship manager committed to helping the next generation of athletes to transition into new careers.
The Olympic silver medallist called time on his career after he won bronze in the 4×100 metres and 4x200m freestyle relay at the Commonwealth Games at Gold Coast 2018.
We sat down with Dan to hear about his journey which started off at a small community pool in Edinburgh and culminated in the Olympic final, lining up against the likes of decorated US athlete Michael Phelps.
Can you recall the earliest memories of your swimming career?
"What I really loved about swimming from the get go was the competitive element of it. I was able to kind of raise people, and push myself. I think I was just naturally a competitor; with myself and with my teammates. I wanted to see how good I could be. That being said, there was never an 'end goal.' I just did it because it was fun. I liked being in the water."
After taking to the water so naturally as a youngster, was there a pivotal moment in your development you recall, or a moment where you thought you could make a career out of swimming?
"There was a moment when I was 15, where I just started to believe in myself. It was never like, 'oh, I can be the next, you know, Michael Phelps.' But, I did start to think I could be good at this because I was training harder than anyone else in the pool.
Before the age of 15 I was never winning gold medals, you know, regionals, or Scottish championships or anything. Those medals didn't come until I told myself there's no reason why I couldn't start wearing them. I started showing up at these big meets and I knew that I was putting in just as much work as them, and so I thought, 'why can't it be me that wins the gold medal this time? or makes the finals?"
Come the end of his high-school swimming career, Wallace took a big leap of faith, moving across the world to base himself at the University of Florida, training with and swimming for the Gators. After five successful years in the states where he became a multiple NCAA All-American, he returned to Britain to swim at Millfield in the run up to Rio.
Reflecting on his time across the pond, he told us it was the stepping stone he needed top break onto the international scene –
"Over there, I had some great progression in the domestic American competitions. In the first year I went over there, I made the B final, and it was great to see that my progression over the four years to go from making that B final, to making the final, to become a national champion in 2013 in my third year, and then to Captain the team in my last year.
So that progression within my team was really cool to see, but then also on the international stage too. I developed as an international swimmer as a result of the work I was putting in in Florida. In my second year there, I went to make my first Commonwealth Games team which holds some great memories for me."
The Commonwealth Games you're alluding to was the 2014 home games in Glasgow, tell us what it was like to compete there as a Scotsman?!
"It was amazing. I got to swim in front of my closest friends, family, schoolmates, and the general public that were, you know, attached to me in some way because I was Scottish. It was so great to have the crowd, with almost all of them on my side. What made it even more special was to come away there with a Gold Medal, Commonwealth record, and two more silvers and that really kind of kick started my international success."
Indeed, following the 2014 games Wallace went on to compete at the 2015 world championships, and subsequently found himself lining up in an Olympic final in Rio the following year –
"For every swimmer and everyone that takes part in the Olympic sport the dream is to be an Olympian. In 2016 I actually only made the Olympic Games by the skin of my teeth. I didn't have a great competition leading up to it, I didn't have a great trials, but I'd proved myself enough that I was good enough to make the team and I was selected to be a part of that team GB Olympic team. To be able to compete at the Olympics, not only against former teammates and other team GB athletes, but against the best in the world, was truly amazing.
2016 was the year that Michael Phelps was making his comeback, and I found myself in the Olympic final lining up against him. It was the biggest race of my career. Not only was there Phelps in the race, I also had the world record holder in there, the Asian record holder, the American record holder, the Australian record holder, and the Brazilian record holder. It was a really nerve racking situation to deal with.
To paint the picture of what it felt like – I was in the lane next to the Brazilian swimmer, who was a favourite to win a medal and the entire swimming arena was chanting his name for about three minutes before the race. It was the loudest I've ever heard a Stadium in my life. Everyone was thrown off because it was usually quite quiet at the start of a race. But the Brazilian fans were loving the chance for them to win a medal and the energy before the race was incredible. I had to stay focused, in that setting, lining up for the biggest race of my career."
The mental toughness he showed was rewarded as Wallace was a member of the British quartet which claimed silver in the 4x200m freestyle relay at the 2016 Olympic Games, along with team-mates Stephen Milne, Duncan Scott and James Guy.
The Olympic medallists long and successful career came to it's pinnacle in 2018 following his last Commonwealth Games in the Gold Coast. There was nothing more Wallace he could take from the sport, he told TTP – "Gold Coast was all about enjoying the last moments, the last Games, and the last chance to represent Scotland."
Reflecting on your retirement, how did you find the transition and what challenges did you face during this period?
"When I look back to 2018, when I was retiring, I was really just trying to figure out who I was, if I wasn't Dan Wallace the swimmer, then who was I or who did I want to be. And I think that it took a lot of adjustment. But what was really important for me was to realise that, I will have the skills of an athlete, I've always had the mindset of an athlete, and I think that I was too quick to try and separate myself from that.
All athletes have these great skills that they need to appreciate and identify as soon as they can. I was a bit naive, and maybe didn't realise my strengths as an athlete would also help me in later in life. That's something that I didn't pick up on quickly enough. I didn't waste time, but I certainly applied for jobs or tried to find careers that weren't going to fulfil me, and I wasn't going to excel.
So the transition period had highs and lows but, I feel very fortunate that I ended up in the position I'm in now, because it's somewhere that I'm going to thrive. It's something I love to do, working with athletes."
Tell us, what is life like now for Dan Wallace? What are you doing and how are you finding it?
"I'm loving still being involved in sport, but in a completely different way. I think that I always wanted to still be involved in sport, but I didn't really realise that there was so many ways you could be involved in the sport, I thought you're either an athlete or you're a coach. I wasn't really aware of the opportunities out there, to work for a company like The Transition Phase and being able to help athletes through their own transition.
Like I mentioned, my own transition was far from perfect and I could have done things better, and it was such an important point in my life I definitely became a better person from going through my transition, and I know now being on the other side how I can help others in a similar position. I feel very fortunate to be able to help other athletes with their transition."
On the topic of athletes and helping them with their career transition, what are your final words, advice or anything you'd tell your younger self?
"I think that by being an athlete, to whatever level, you develop such valuable skills. I think the sooner you are aware of these skills, the better. Athletes are not just great at playing sports, they're great at managing themselves, they're great at motivating themselves, and they're great people to be around and to work with. Athletes are so valuable and they're so employable. They are crucial to the working environment, and they can bring a lot to a business.
Looking back, what I would say to myself and actually what I would say to any athlete in a similar position, is 'back yourself when you retire, or when you want to explore a new career. You have so many strengths, it's just about finding the right experience with the right people – and hopefully now I can be a part of that support here at The Transition Phase."
Welcome on board Dan – so excited to have you as part of the TTP team!

In New Jersey, any time that a person is arrested and any time that a person pleads guilty to a criminal charge, found guilty at trial, or succeeded in getting criminal charges dropped, records are created. These records of arrest and dispositions are kept with various offices. And depending on the type of background check, the records may be easily accessed and shared with anyone. If a person wishes for these records to be expunged from their record, they need to file a petition for expungement, in accordance with N.J.S.A. 2C:52-1, et seq.
Even if charges are ultimately dropped, the person still must make an application for an expungement of the arrest itself. If someone is admitted to a diversionary program – like Pretrial Intervention (PTI) or a conditional discharge – and the charges get dropped after completing the program, the person must also make an application for an expungement. Felony convictions, disorderly persons charges, and even ordinance violations may be expunged from a criminal record, depending on certain circumstances.
If you would like to know how you have to wait to expunge certain convictions, please see this article. If the charges were dismissed, you can file for an expungement right away.
A person interested in petitioning for an expungement in New Jersey must first find out if they are eligible. This is outlined in N.J.S.A. 2C:52-2 through 6. A lawyer could review your criminal history and advise you if you are eligible. The next step is to file a Petition seeking the expungement, which explains to the court why you are entitled to an expungement. There is a lot of paperwork that goes into this because all of the relevant papers must be sent to a number of different government offices. Those offices may file objections to the petition for expungement. If there are objections, the judge will have to review the issues and argument from your lawyer and decide whether the criminal records should be expunged. This is particularly relevant in cases where a person is seeking an early expungement – a full hearing before the judge will occur. If the judge grants the petition, then an order directing that the criminal record is expunged will be issued. That order then needs to be served on a variety of government offices. How long does it take to expunge a criminal record? At a minimum, the entire process takes at least a couple of months. More complicated petitions will take longer.
