This is a Government (UK and Welsh) incentive to assist people moving from benefits into work.
An extended payment and/or extended reduction can be paid when you have been receiving Income Support, Job Seekers Allowance (income-based), Incapacity Benefit, Employment and Support Allowance or Severe Disablement Allowance continuously for 26 weeks and it stops because you or your partner (if applicable) have started full-time work or your hours or earnings from your current employment increase.
If you qualify, you will be entitled to up to 4 weeks of Housing Benefit/Local Housing Allowance and/or Council Tax Reduction payable at the same rate as you were getting whilst receiving Income Support, Jobseeker's Allowance (income based), Incapacity Benefit, Severe Disablement Allowance or Employment Support Allowance. During these 4 weeks it does not matter how much you earn.
If you only want to be considered for an extended payment and/or reduction, you must inform us immediately in writing, by telephone or in person when you or your partner (if applicable) start full-time work or your hours or earnings from your current employment increase.
We will then check to see if you qualify for an extended payment and/or extended reduction and notify you of the outcome accordingly.
To enable us to consider whether you qualify for Housing Benefit/Local Housing Allowance and/or Council Tax Reduction based on your new income you will need to complete a Change in Circumstances form which can be downloaded from the Downloadable Forms page. Alternatively you can contact the Local Authority via email at revenues@ceredigion.gov.uk, by phone on 01970 633252 or by writing to the Local Authority at the address shown on the contact page and a form will be sent to you. You can also visit and collect a form at one of our Local District Offices.
You will also be required to provide documentary evidence of all your weekly income, capital and savings when available. Please see Supporting Evidence Checklist for further information.

If you need money and own some property, then you can get a loan against property i.e. by mortgaging it with a bank. Banks typically lend anywhere between 40-60 per cent of the property's market value.
Here, you have two choices – you can take the entire loan amount as a lump sum and repay in equated monthly installments (EMIs), or as an overdraft account.
An overdraft is a facility that allows you to withdraw more money than what you have in your bank account, subject to certain limits. The advantage of taking a loan against property using the overdraft option is that you have to pay interest only on the money you withdraw, till the time you repay it.
But if you opt for a lump sum and choose to repay in EMIs, you will have to pay the interest on the entire amount throughout the tenure of the loan.
Let's take an example. Suppose Mr. Kumar has mortgaged his house for a loan of Rs 10 lakh and opts for overdraft on his existing account with the same bank. Now, if Mr. Kumar withdraws Rs 5 lakh, say on the 20th of the month, and repays Rs 3 lakh on the 28th of the month, he will have to pay interest on Rs 5 lakh only for eight days. After the 28th of the month, he needs to pay interest only on Rs 2 lakh, till the time he repays that amount.
This seems pretty tempting compared to the EMI option, but there are some things you need to know.
First, only banks give you the overdraft option, since housing finance companies do not have savings/current accounts for individuals.
Also, banks may charge a higher processing fee on the loan if you want to take it as an overdraft, rather than as a lump sum. This is because you may or may not use the credit limit for a while; in which case, the bank will lose the interest it can earn on the amount you haven't withdrawn.
Besides, you will have to pay the processing fee every year in the case of overdrafts, but only once in the case of a lump sum loan. Overdrafts also attract a higher rate of interest (normally around 0.50 per cent extra).
This option is available only with banks offering LAP This option is available with banks as well as housing finance companies offering LAP, might attract a higher processing fee, not one-time, but annually Processing fee will be one-time.
You pay interest only on the money you withdraw from the overdraft account to the extent you do not repay.


What is that one nightmare which every industry across the globe is scared of?
That's the biggest challenge of this generation. Gone are the days of invasions, this is the age of Cyber Wars. It takes few seconds for an individual to break into your vulnerable servers sitting somewhere in one corner of the world, seven seas away!
The other day I was chatting to an elderly lady in the train. She said that though she doesn't understand what ransomware attack is, it isn't something she has seen in her days. It's a concern for millions of people reading the newspaper every day globally. The fact that Windows XP is being used in departments like NHS, MET Police, and even defence (HMS Aircraft Carrier), raises eyebrows as everyone is worried about the confidential data held on these servers.
Advancement in technology leads to its own side effects. With untraceable crypto-currencies like Monero in the boom, there is now more motivation for hackers in the darknet market to exploit security loop holes. In view of recent ransomware attacks, every company big or small in any domain (be it health care, defence, banking, cloud computing or social networking) is at a greater risk of cyber threat than ever before. This threat is multiple times higher if your apps are running on old unsupported platforms. So, what's the solution?
Can these servers be cut off from the network completely?
Is it practically feasible to rewrite thousands of apps to move to newer secure Operating Systems?
Can Microsoft start supporting older unsupported Operating Systems like XP?
None of those are practically implementable without heavy loss of productivity and years of rework.
Luckily I know that latest technology can solve this exact problem. Having worked as an application virtualization developer, I can confidently say that these apps could be migrated to newer, more secure and supported operating systems without any code changes. That's our daily job at Cloudhouse. I've been working as part of the team virtualizing hundreds of legacy apps over recent years.
Cloudhouse containers not just solve compatibility issues for legacy apps to make them run on latest safer Windows and XenApp infrastructure, but also provide extra wrapper of security with features like network isolation and related features; thus providing them a safe haven to leverage latest security patches released by Microsoft.
Watch this space for more upcoming solutions on securing legacy apps as we gear up to fight this global threat.


Why should we care about child care?
As employers in Oregon's Columbia Gorge region, there are many reasons for making quality child care a priority for your business. Get a free child care consultation with one of our quality improvement specialists.
Employees will be more productive and have much better attendance if they know that their children are in a quality child care program. Employees whose children are not in a consistent, quality program will miss more work and be distracted worrying about their children when they are at work.
Employees are often a two-parent, working family or are single parents. To be able to attract and retain a quality workforce, employers must be aware of the child care needs of families.
You want a tax break. Oregon employers who subsidize child care expenses or contract with Child Care Partners could be eligible for a 50% tax credit for these costs.
You care about children and your community. We now know that children's brain development from birth to school age is directly influenced by their early environment. Quality child care is critical to children who spend much of their day in care. Quality at this stage means that children grow up secure, healthy, and are ready for school.

ASLA Showcases Landscape Architecture Profession at the USA Science & Engineering Festival
The American Society of Landscape Architects will showcase landscape architecture to children and families at the upcoming USA Science and Engineering Festival, April 6-8 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. Visitors will discover the landscape architecture profession as an exciting, creative career with the help of ASLA staff and local landscape architects and students.
ASLA is always looking for ways to promote the value of landscape architecture to society. Its exhibit (booth #1252) will feature intriguing, hands-on activities, the result of a collaboration between ASLA staff and landscape architecture students at Virginia Tech Washington Alexandria Architecture Center (WAAC) and the University of Maryland.
A topographic model created by landscape architecture students at Virginia Tech will be showcased. Attendees can view this model with 3D software, which will help them understand how a two-dimensional idea can quickly become three-dimensional through the use of computer-controlled cutting machines such as laser cutters and CNC routers.
ASLA's booth will also feature VR video, which will enable visitors to embark on a vivid journey of a park built over a highway—Klyde Warren Park in Dallas. The park—which received the ASLA 2017 Professional Award of Excellence—is a prominent example of how to heal the damage made by transportation infrastructure to our downtowns.
Created using GoPro Odyssey on Google Jump, this video demonstrates the latest VR cinematic technology. It takes viewers into the park to explore its unique design features.
The video is narrated by landscape architect James Burnett, FASLA, president of OJB Landscape Architecture, which designed the park. It is also available for free viewing on ASLA's website.
Bring the kids and understand some of the cool ways landscape architecture is making our communities better.
About the American Society of Landscape Architects
Founded in 1899, the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) is the professional association for landscape architects in the United States, representing more than 15,000 members. The Society's mission is to advance landscape architecture through advocacy, communication, education and fellowship. Sustainability has been part of ASLA's mission since its founding and is an overarching value that informs all of the Society's programs and operations. ASLA has been a leader in demonstrating the benefits of green infrastructure and resilient development practices through the creation of its own green roof, co-development of the SITES® Rating System, and the creation of publicly accessible sustainable design resources.
About the USA Science & Engineering Festival
Founded by serial entrepreneur Larry Bock and Lockheed Martin executives to address the severe shortage in science and tech talent, the USA Science & Engineering Festival is the only national science festival. It was developed to increase public awareness about the importance of science and to encourage youth to pursue careers in science and engineering by celebrating science in much the same way as society celebrates Hollywood celebrities, professional athletes and pop stars. The Festival Expo is presented by Lockheed Martin with important support from Chevron. Visit USAScienceFestival.org, connect on Facebook, and follow on Twitter @USAScienceFest.

Bleg for Help on a Story
I'm looking for help with a story we're working on. It could be a big story, or it could be nothing.
What we need is someone with the ability to check property records, particularly in Alabama.
Maybe you have LEXIS access; maybe you live in Alabama and could drive to the courthouse.
If you're a trusted regular reader who's willing to help, write me at patterico AT gmail DOT com. If I don't know you, I'll need some way of checking your bona fides.
Yeah, I have LEXIS access at work — but I'm obviously not using it for blogging purposes. Hence the bleg.
Let me know if you can help! If this turns into something big, you'll get all appropriate credit, if you want it.
UPDATE: We may have already found what we need; I'm still checking to make sure. Thanks for all the responses — seriously. I got more than I expected.
UPDATE x2: Here is the story. Thanks again for the responses.
All FLDS Children Have Been Relocated
Filed under: Civil Liberties,Law — DRJ @ 7:31 pm
The remaining FLDS children have been relocated from the temporary quarters in San Angelo to foster care across Texas. Here's a report from the Abilene Reporter News that indicates the Abilene-bound children are enjoying the playground equipment:
"It is unclear how many of the 437 children seized from the ranch were placed in Abilene. Officials at the Hendrick Home for Children also declined to give ages for the children placed there.
David Miller, president and CEO of the Hendrick Home for Children, said the facility typically admits children ranging in age from five years to 16 years. "We sometimes take children younger than five, but we need a special variance from Child Protective Services to do that," he said, declining to say if the facility had received any such variances from CPS in order to foster the YFZ children.
Special needs, medical and dietary concerns, as well as figuring out how best to play with the YFZ children are among the first concerns Hendrick Home staff will address, Miller said.
"We have to work with them, build up their trust," he said, over the sounds of the children playing on the facility's playground. "They love the playground," Miller said. "Their eyes got as big as saucers when they got off the bus and saw the playground."
Their favorite playground equipment? "They're most interested in the slides and monkey bars," Miller said. "They are having fun."
In the next few days, the children will be introduced to the horses kept on the 50-acre property and will be given carrots to feed them. They will also be tested to see "where they are" academically, Miller said. The facility has been given special regulations in regards to the children's care, such as diet and television restrictions.
"We'll follow the rules in the next few weeks and see how they do," he said."

Unexpected Texas Case on Defense of Property
Filed under: Constitutional Law,Crime,Law — DRJ @ 3:28 pm
I thought the Houston-area Joe Horn case would be the case that would test a recent change in Texas law on self-defense and defense of property, but it looks like this Laredo case will be the one:
"A man who shot and killed a 13-year-old breaking into his mobile home has been indicted for murder in a case that could test a new law giving Texans more leeway to defend themselves with deadly force.
Jose Luis Gonzalez, 63, was indicted Friday in the July killing of a teenager who sneaked into his home with three friends to steal drinks and snacks. Francisco Anguiano was shot in the back and later died at a Laredo hospital.
Gonzalez was indicted by a grand jury for first-degree murder.
Gonzalez told authorities he was asleep in a nearby shed when he heard the teenagers inside his home and was trying to subdue the intruders when his gun went off."
Gonzalez's attorney said his client was rightfully protecting his property, referencing the recent change in Texas law that eliminated the requirement to retreat before using deadly force.

NYC Anti-Bullying Campaign
Responding to the advocacy of the NYCLU and the DASA in Action Coalition, the New York City Department of Education in September 2008 instituted Chancellor's Regulation (A-832), which prohibits bullying and harassment in the city's public schools. The regulation is a good first step, but much more must be done to create respectful, inclusive and safe learning environments in all city schools.
What is DASA in Action?
In response to the refusal of the Bloomberg administration to enforce the Dignity in All Schools Act, we are asking individuals and organizations to join DASA in Action! to demand full implementation of this already-enacted law. Attached is a statement committing signatories to help address the problem of pervasive bias-based harassment in New York City's public schools by supporting the full enforcement of the Dignity in All Schools Act. Students are currently being harassed and even assaulted based on their actual or perceived race, national origin, ethnic group, religion, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation, sex and gender -- including their gender identity or gender expression. On-going, widespread harassment puts students in an atmosphere of fear which undermines their academic potential. It can lead them to skip school, engage in high-risk behaviors such as drug or alcohol abuse or even contemplate suicide. Harassment is a real issue in New York City schools:
Osama al-Najjar, a 16-year-old at Tottenville High School in Staten Island, plunged into a deep depression and tried to commit suicide because he was incessantly referred to as Osama bin Laden. His parents have sued the school system, claiming their son was constantly harassed by teachers while school officials did nothing.
Sikh student Harpal Singh Vacher, a freshman at Newtown High School in Elmhurst, was forced into a boys' bathroom by another student who removed his turban and proceeded to cut his waist-length hair. In accordance with the Sikh religion, his hair had never been cut.
"Kids scream dyke at me in the halls," recalls a high school-aged girl in Queens who is a member of the LGBT youth program Generation Q.
To address this serious problem, the New York City Council passed the Dignity in All Schools Act in June 2004 and then overcame a veto by Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg to enact this important law September 2004. But the mayor has refused to enforce the law. Among the most important provisions ignored by the mayor but required by the Dignity in All Schools Act are mandatory anti-harassment trainings for school staff and monitoring, reporting and tracking of bias-based harassment, including a complaint process mechanism for parents and students. The City of New York and its public school system have a legal and ethical obligation to provide a safe environment for all students in public schools. But the mayor, the chancellor and the Department of Education have abdicated responsibility for this most basic of obligations. Join us in supporting a complete implementation of this important and necessary law, the Dignity in all Schools Act.

The Holy Sanctuary - The Syriac term madhb'ho means the holy place. It is at the eastern end of the Church and represents heaven. "Afterward he brought me to the gate, the gate that faces toward the East. And behold the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the East....and the glory of the Lord came into the temple by way of the gate which faces toward the east" Ezekiel 43:1,2,3. "... for the facade of the temple was toward the east..." Ezekiel 47:1. In the Sanctuary the Body and Blood of our Lord are offered by the priest, the representative of Lord, in the midst of deacons and candle lights.

Q: Get Direct Child - Not Nested Children I have a layout such as this:

        Input One
            <input type="checkbox" /> Checkbox One

        ... elements ...

                Input Two
                    <input type="checkbox" /> Checkbox Two

                ... elements ...

                    ... elements ...

Whenever I check an input, I' like the next children UL to display or not display if unchecked. The problem I keep running into is that if I use find() it will also select the nested children, which is not what I want.
Some stipulations is that I can't have additional classes or IDs as this is on a WordPress platform, category metabox but I want to use Jquery to manipulate the data. My jquery is something like this:
$('#tax_id li label > input:checkbox').click(function(){
    if($(this).is(':checked')){
        $(this).parent('label').parent('li').find('ul.children').css('display', 'block');
    }
    else{
        $(this).parent('label').parent('li').find('ul.children').css('display', 'none');
    }
});

JSFiddle

A: Use .children() instead of .find():
$('#tax_id li label > input:checkbox').click(function(){
    if($(this).is(':checked')){
        $(this).parent('label').parent('li').children('ul.children').css('display', 'block');
    }
    else{
        $(this).parent('label').parent('li').children('ul.children').css('display', 'none');
    }
});

As per the doc:

The .children() method differs from .find() in that .children()
  only travels a single level down the DOM tree...

http://api.jquery.com/children/

A: You can use nextAll and eq like below:
$('#tax_id li label > input:checkbox').click(function(){
    if($(this).is(':checked')){
        $(this).parent('label').nextAll('ul.children').eq(0).css('display', 'block');
    }
    else{
        $(this).parent('label').nextAll('ul.children').eq(0).css('display', 'none');
    }
});

Lata Mangeshkar pays tribute to R.D. Burman
R. D. Burman
MUMBAI– On legendary composer R.D. Burman's 22nd death anniversary on Monday, melody queen Lata Mangeshkar paid tribute to him by saying that his "music will continue to spread magic".
Mangeshkar, who teamed up with Burman for songs like "Dilbar dil se pyare", "Koi ladki koi ladka", "Aaja piya tohe pyar doon", "Mere naina sawan bhadon" and "Tujhse naraz nahin zindagi" among others, posted her message of tribute on Twitter.
She said the music and memories of Burman, who was lovingly nicknamed Pancham, are alive even today. Lata added that she's sure that his music will continue to spread magic in the coming hundred years too.
The 83-year-old singer also shared the link to the song "Tere liye palkon ki" from the 1981 film "Harjaee".
Burman was married to Mangeshkar's younger sister, singer Asha Bhonsle. Together, they had three children Varsha Bhosle, Hemant Bhosle and Anand Bhosle. Varsha and Hemant passed away in recent years.

Remembering Diem Brown One Year After Her Death
By Emily Krauser 8:37 AM PST, November 14, 2015
Saturday marks the one-year anniversary of Diem Brown's death. The MTV reality star was only in her 30s, but she spent more than one-third of her life battling cancer.
I never met Brown in real life, but the news of her death last year hit me hard, for the simple reason that she is part of a family that neither of us ever asked to be a part of -- the young adult cancer family.
WATCH: MTV's Challenge Stars Pay Tribute to Late Diem Brown & Ryan Knight
Brown was first diagnosed with ovarian cancer at 23 and suffered a relapse at 30. Cancer survivors pray they'll hit the five-year mark, that magical measure of time it takes to be declared cancer-free. That doesn't mean the cancer will never come back or a separate prognosis isn't possible, but the chances of a recurrence drop significantly after five years in remission.
Brown had been in remission for seven years when she found out her cancer had returned.
Those ages I stated for Brown aren't entirely correct, however. Brown said she was born in 1982, but People discovered that her birth year was really 1980. After her death, Brown's sister Megan told People that Diem lied about her age because "cancer robbed Diem of 10 years of her life. She worked in an industry where age matters… She felt cancer took away enough from her. We all agreed whatever age she wanted to be, we would support her."
What's important isn't that the reality star lied, but rather, the reason for the lie. Yes, it was partially for her career, but it was also because cancer had robbed her of her prime years, a situation I can empathize with.
I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma at 27. I was just a few years older than Brown at the time of her first diagnosis. In theory, we, along with every other 20-something, should have had years of health and (hopefully) happiness ahead of us, but for those of us who are lucky enough to survive, our future is full of fear. We were already diagnosed once at a time in our lives when illness isn't "supposed" to happen, so what's to stop our bodies from failing us again? How much more will and strength do we have in us if we have to fight again? Whether I'm lucky enough to live another 30 years or as unfortunate as Diem to only be blessed with nine, the idea of cancer will always be with me, as it was for her.
Above all, cancer is a thief. Cancer stole all of Diem's 20s. It stole the end of my 20s. For some of my friends, it hasn't stopped stealing. People who mean well often say that we are only given what we can handle, but even for the strongest of fighters, cancer is an overwhelming task to take on. I don't believe Brown, myself, or any other 20-something cancer fighter or survivor was given what we could handle. We don't need to prove our strength. Let's stop trying to find a nice way to explain a cancer diagnosis: It sucks. It's awful. It's unfair. There is no "good kind," of cancer, just varying situations and outcomes. The diagnoses are not "what we can handle" but rather what we're forced to handle when giving up is not an option.
Brown is a testament to one person having more will than imaginable. She had a light and grace to her throughout her battle. She was open about what it was like to have cancer at such a young age, to go through treatments three times, to be told the cancer had spread, to see her dreams of becoming a wife and mother fade. While she wasn't able to achieve motherhood, she did give the world MedGift, a gift giving service for people battling any illness.
But the biggest gift Brown gave to me was her voice as an advocate for young adults with cancer. She had unwavering hope for herself and others and a belief that life was meant to be lived to the fullest, and it pays to take a second and learn from Diem's overwhelming optimism.
I don't say these things because I personally knew Brown. I only had one small interaction with her, and it was far from face-to-face -- it was on Twitter.
After I was diagnosed, a friend sent me a video of Brown ripping her wig off during an episode of The Challenge: Free Agents. Brown was very open about her attachment to wigs and being afraid of people seeing her without them, or at least a bandana covering her bald head. I was the same way during and immediately after chemo treatments; I felt ugly, empty and weak without the shield of a wig. Brown cried when she admitted that challenge was the first time she had shown anyone her post-chemo head, and I've cried every time I've watched that clip. But it's her words at the very end that hit me hardest, because she said she felt like she didn't have to hide anymore. That's what cancer has the sinister ability to do: take away strength, courage and senses of self. Something as seemingly simple as hair holds even more value when you don't have it, when it's been taken from you against your will and you don't recognize yourself anymore. It's not a matter of vanity but a loss of control. By confronting her bald head, Brown took some of that power back from cancer.
After watching, I tweeted Brown to tell her how much that clip affected me and how brave I thought she had been. We went back and forth a couple of times, and I followed her journey through tweets and blogs after that. Three days before she died, Brown tweeted, "I NEED PRAyErs and advice my doctors are seemingly giving up but I won't & can't rollover. Whatever option I have to LIVE I'm grabbing!"
I NEED PRAyErs and advice my doctors are seemingly giving up but I won't & can't rollover. Whatever option I have to LIVE I'm grabbing!

Thursday night, Brown's family and friends came together to celebrate her life at the First Annual #Diemstrong Fundraiser at No. 8 in New York City. Not only did all proceeds go directly to help patients through MedGift, but they also did the one thing that Brown would have loved: dance like everyone was watching.
Because if there's anything Brown did in the face of cancer, it was to live.

A New View: Exploring Cleveland from Beneath the Detroit-Superior Bridge
Once a year, the City of Cleveland opens closed-off portions of the city's Detroit-Superior Bridge to the public, including the old subway tunnels beneath the city and the pedestrian portion of the bridge itself. The tours are self-guided, though along the way, you'll find informational literature, documentary-style videos, & a few helpful folks to get you educated & answer your questions.
Our friend Darren turned 30 this week, & one of the things he wanted to do in celebration was explore this little-seen piece of the city. As someone who's always down for a local adventure, especially of the little-seen variety, I was all in.
We had no idea what to expect. Would it be really dark? Creepy? Muddy? We were about to find out!
Our first stop was in an old train car called Lady Rosie, named after Rosie the Riveter. It had seats like a train, but it felt more like a subway care - though we didn't recognize a single location on the stop map. Has Cleveland changed that much?! Streetcar service was discontinued in 1954, & when the subway tunnels were deemed unsuitable for vehicular traffic, the space was abandoned.
When it was first built in 1918, the Detroit-Superior Bridge (renamed the Veterans Memorial Bridge in 1989) was the world's largest double-deck concrete reinforced bridge, per the literature we received on-site. At 3,112 feet long, it features 12 concrete arches & clearance of 96 feet.
The bridge was rehabilitated & reinforced in the late 1960s & is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Today, it's still heavily trafficked from the top deck, connecting Ohio City & downtown Cleveland by way of The Flats
The best part of the tour, in my opinion, was exploring the lower deck of the bridge, which is not typically open to foot traffic anymore... & maybe doesn't feel suuuuuper safe, though I'm sure the Department of Public Works made sure it was sturdy before they let thousands of people cross it this weekend.
Pieces of the lower deck were removed during the bridge's reconstruction in the '60s, & though wooden planks have been placed over much of it, you can still see the mighty Cuyahoga River through the slats. I'm not afraid of heights, but this had me more than a little nervous!
The best part of the lower-deck walk - aside from the cool breeze blowing through it on a sunny day - were the views of the city. I know that some of you, fair readers, hail from places like the Pacific Northwest & New England, places known for their natural beauty. Cleveland... is not one of those places. But something about the rust belt views from this resilient city always get me right in the feelings.
By the way, that little boat you see floating on the Cuyahoga was named Novocain. A dentist's toy, perhaps? I'm always curious to know how people name their boats!
And one more thing: Though the lower portion of the bridge is no longer open to the public during most of the year, the top deck does have sidewalks for pedestrian crossing. In fact, it's the bridge that I ran across earlier this summer as part of my cycling studio's summer challenge! This was a much more leisurely visit, let me tell you.
Have you ever explored old, abandoned parts of your city like this? If you're local, tell me: What else do I need to see in Cleveland?!

(Los Angeles, CA) Film composer Christopher Young scores "Priest," a post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller, directed by Scott Charles Stewart ("Legion"). The gripping 3D film is set in an alternate world -- one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. Sony Pictures releases the film May 13. Score album is released by Madison Gate Records and available on iTunes and Amazon.com.
Young quipped that his score is, "Excessively aggressive and enveloping; it swallows you like a leviathan. It's a powerhouse of constant energy. It's like Godzilla f--ing King Kong." It took an 83 piece orchestra and a 32 member choir to create the epic sound Young wanted.
"Priest" is the first collaboration between Christopher Young and director Scott Charles Stewart.
The film stars Paul Bettany as a legendary warrior priest during the last Vampire War, who now lives in obscurity among the other human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities controlled by the Church. When his niece (Lily Collins) is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on a quest to find her before they turn her into one of them.

Baruch Adonai L'Olam is a prayer that is recited by some Jewish communities, during Maariv on weekdays immediately preceding the Amidah. It contains a tapestry of 18 biblical verses, followed in most customs by a blessing titled Yiru Eineinu (may our eyes see).

The prayer is recited by most Ashkenazim outside of Israel.  It is recited by many Chasidim (although not by Chabad-Lubavitch). It is not recited by followers of the Vilna Gaon.  In Israel, it is largely unheard of in Ashkenazic circles (both Nusach Ashkenaz and Nusach Sefard), although it is recited by some of the minyanim associated with Machon Moreshes Ashkenaz.

It appears in old printings of Sephardic siddurim (including Venice and Livorno), although it has been largely dropped by Sephardic communities.  However, some Moroccan communities (both in Israel and elsewhere) recite the last part of the prayer (starting from Yir'u eineinu) at Maariv at the conclusion of the Sabbath.

In the Yemenite rite and the Italian rite, it is recited in and out of Israel.

The prayer was composed during post-talmudic times when synagogues could not be built in residential areas, and when Maariv was held in open fields. Its 18 verses took the place of the 18 blessings of the Amidah. The Amidah would then be recited in full privately by participants when they returned to their homes.

This prayer is not recited today in any community today on Shabbat and Yom Tov, although historically there were communities that recited it even on Shabbat.

For example, ERISA section 404(c) plan protects a plan fiduciary from being liable for the losses suffered in a down market by the 60-year-old who invests his entire account in an aggressive growth fund. However, plan fiduciaries are responsible for the selection or retention of particular investment options and for investments required by the plan or directed by the plan sponsor.
This checklist will help you determine how well you are complying with ERISA section 404(c). This checklist is for informational purposes only and is not intended to provide authoritative guidance or legal advice. Consult your attorney or other advisor for guidance on your particular situation.
1. The plan offers a broad range of investment alternatives.
Generally, this is satisfied by having an investment menu that includes diversified funds from equity, fixed income and capital preservation asset classes.
Investments available under the plan allow participants to control both the potential returns and the degree of risk.
The plan offers at least three core options that are diversified and have materially different risk and return characteristics.
2. The plan provides participants with an opportunity to exercise control over assets in their accounts, subject to reasonable restrictions.
The plan offers participants the opportunity to change investments as frequently as appropriate in light of the volatility of plan investments – at least quarterly.
Restrictions on participants' investment directions are reasonable, applied uniformly to participants and comply with certain guidelines. For example, a plan fiduciary may decline to implement a participant's investment election if the election would result in a "prohibited transaction" under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code.
Participants are provided with (or are able to access) information that is sufficient to help them make informed election decisions.
3. Participants exercise independent control over their plan investment decisions.
Determining whether a participant acted independently involves looking at the facts and circumstances of each situation. For example, a participant does not act independently when he or she is subjected to improper influence by a plan fiduciary in connection with the transaction.
Regular and periodic disclosures of plan-related and investment-related information. To comply with this requirement, plans must adhere to the participant-level fee disclosure requirements under ERISA section 404(a). More information on the participant-level fee disclosure requirements is available on the Department of Labor's website.
A notice that the plan intends to comply with ERISA 404(c) and fiduciaries may be relieved of liability for investment losses as a result of participant investment decisions. This can be provided in the summary plan description.
If applicable, information regarding employer securities offered as an investment alternative under the plan, including a description of special procedures for ensuring the confidentiality of the purchase, holding and sale and the exercise of voting, tender and similar rights. In addition, participants must be provided with the name, address and phone number of the plan fiduciary responsible for monitoring compliance with the special procedures for employer securities.

SWBAT debate the pros and cons of saving endangered animals.
Students explore the pros and cons of saving endangered animals through a debate.
I begin the lesson by asking students if they have ever seen a debate - maybe a Presidential debate, or a movie like "The Great Debaters." Some students had seen a debate and some had not. I explain to them a debate is simply a discussion in which participants articulate, justify, and clarify their positions on an issue.
Although classroom debates on the elementary level are not as common as on the middle and high school levels, I have found them to be essential in preparing my students for college and career readiness. To prepare for our classroom debate, I divide my students into 2 teams and I select 3 students who will serve as evaluators. I tell students participating in the debate on the "for" and "against" sides that they will use a T-chart graphic organizer on which to take notes. The evaluators will take notes on an evaluator rubric. I review the "Debate Do's and Don'ts" and the "Learning Objectives" for the lesson. In order to ensure that my students get to the essential understandings I want them to gain for the lesson, I have developed some essential questions I will use as the moderator of the debate (see attached Powerpoint).
Learning to become Great Debaters!
- Why are debates important?
- Why is research important in a debate?
- Why are listening and note-taking important in a debate?
- Is the fight to save endangered animals a worthy cause? If so, why?

Nils Adler-Laurentsson, född 21 juni 1905 i Hamburg, död 1999, var en tysk-svensk konstnär.

Adler-Laurentsson företog fria konststudier i Berlin och under studieresor till utlandet 1924-1926. Vid återkomsten till Tyskland blev han assistent vid Otto Douglas Douglas-Hills keramiska verkstad i Berlin. I början av 1930-talet flyttade han till Stockholm där han fick en tjänst som teckningslärare vid den nystartade Olofskolan 1932. Han återvände 1933 till Tyskland för att studera färgernas kemi under Herman Urban i München. Därefter var han verksam som lärare i materialkunskap vid Nya målarskolan i Stockholm 1935-1937. Han flyttade till Italien 1939 och blev under andra världskriget inspärrad under relativt fria former på Sorrentohalvön. Adler-Laurentsson ställde ut separat på Konstnärshuset i Stockholm samt i Hamburg och Nürnberg. Hans konst består av en stor experimentlusta med religiösa kompositioner, landskapsmålningar och motivbilder från Neapels fattigaste förstadskvarter. Han signerade sina verk omväxlande med Adler-Laurentsson och Laurentsson.

[edit] Overview
Planning applications are subject to fees which are usually payable to the local planning authority. Application fees can change from year to year, so it is important that the applicant or lead designer checks what the fee will be with the local planning authority.
Information about planning fees for England and Wales is available on the Planning Portal.
In 2013, new measures were introduced to refund fees if a planning application is not determined within 26 weeks. In addition, planning fees are now transferred to the Planning Inspectorate from the local authority if the local authority has been placed in special measures. The new requirement for planning applications for unlisted buildings in conservation areas, which replaces conservation area consent, remains free.
Some applications can now be made online, with an automated fee payment system. However, consultants acting as agents for the client in making planning applications have been reluctant to do this as they believe that paying the fees themselves and then charging the client can mean that the fee is subject to VAT.
However, HMRC has indicated that a planning professional acting as a client's agent should be able to class the planning application fee as a 'disbursement' that is not subject to VAT. Further guidance is available on the HMRC website.
Planning permissions may also be subject to the community infrastructure levy and to planning obligations (section 106 agreements). Planning obligations can be used to mitigate or compensate for negative impacts of a development that might otherwise make them unacceptable. Planning obligations can have financial implications. The introduction of the community infrastructure levy should result in a scaling back in the imposition of planning obligations between now and 2014 (see Department for Communities and Local Government guidance for the relationship between the levy and planning obligations).
[edit] Updates
On 21 December 2017, the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG, now MHCLG) announced new regulations to introduce a 20% increase in planning fees from 17 January 2018.
The regulations also introduced a new fee of £402 per 0.1 hectare for permission in principle applications and a fee of £96 for prior approval applications to permitted development rights.
These include the rights for the installation of solar PV equipment on non-domestic buildings, the erection of click-and-collect facilities within the land area of a shop and the provision of temporary school buildings on vacant commercial land for state-funded schools.

Vancouver, BC - June 2, 2014 – An advocate for the blind has filed separate representative human rights complaints against Walmart Canada Corporation and Shoppers Drug Mart charging them with discrimination against people with print disabilities for dispensing prescription medication with information in a non-accessible format (print labels only).
Sleath has been corresponding with Walmart Canada since April 2013 and Shoppers Drug Mart since May 2006, encouraging them to affix an RFID label to prescription medications. The RFID label and companion audio device, manufactured by En-Vision America, reads aloud critical dosage information, possible side effects and other important information. An audio demo is available at http://www.asicbc.ca/Pages/Successful-Initiatives.aspx.
"Providing an RFID label with each prescription would enable a person who is blind or partially sighted to confidently and independently manage their prescriptions properly, eliminate any confusion as to which medication is which and dramatically reduce the likelihood of taking prescription medications incorrectly." Sleath says, "We are disappointed we have had to file this action when other pharmacy outlets have readily understood the importance of providing such critical information to their patients with vision loss. We were optimistic Shoppers Drug Mart and Walmart Canada would voluntarily accommodate their patients with vision loss given the dangers associated with improper medication management.
Access for Sight Impaired Consumers (ASIC) is an independent, consumer-driven advocacy coalition that addresses issues which affect legally blind, deafblind or sight impaired consumers residing in British Columbia. Many of our member organizations are affiliated with widely recognized provincial or national bodies that serve an even greater number than the 18,500 legally blind consumers who reside in this province.

Rashad Salim - Project Director
Rashad is an artist whose 40-year career spans diverse forms of creative practice, including printmaking, sculpture, painting, illustration, curation, cultural research, grassroots development and project animation.
His fascination with the history of culture and technology has driven decades of study and experiential research in the field. Our work builds on Rashad's experience in reconstructing ancient boats and taking part in expeditions:
The Tigris Expedition led by Thor Heyerdahl in 1977-78, as a member of the construction team and crew, following ancient Sumerian trade routes from the marshes of Iraq through the Arabian Gulf and across the Indian Ocean;
The Tigris Flotilla with Nature Iraq in 2013, building a group of traditional boats and travelling down the Tigris from southern Turkey to the marshes of Iraq, raising awareness of river conservation and cultural heritage;
A series of six field trips to Iraq in 2016, as the first stage of our major project The Ark Re-imagined, searching out the remnants of ancient boat-building and craft traditions, and engaging with some of today's makers.
Rashad also brings a unique perspective as a surviving member of the renowned Salim family of artists, whose work was pivotal to the development of Iraqi culture in the 20th century.
These experiences, together with wide-ranging reading, encounters with remarkable individuals, and first-hand immersion in many aspects of intangible heritage, inspired Rashad's desire to weave his knowledge of ancient cultures into the practice of contemporary art and design: an ambition he is now working to realise through Safina Projects.

Federal Government Moves to Ban all Asbestos Products by 2018.
OTTAWA —The federal government is moving to ban all products containing asbestos by 2018.
The comprehensive ban is designed to include construction materials and brake pads that currently use he cancer-causing agent.
Even minute amounts of asbestos fibres can cause lung cancer or deadly mesothelioma, an aggressive cancer.
Thousands of Canadians continue to suffer from the long-term impacts of decades of heavy asbestos use. Canada closed its last asbestos mines a decade ago, but has continued to obstruct international efforts to list it as a hazardous substance.
A national asbestos inventory has been made public and while the document could create job opportunities in the construction industry, safety must be the top priority, several stakeholders stated recently.
Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) developed and released the online list of crown-owned and leased buildings with a known presence of asbestos Oct. 3.
In early 2016, PSPC undertook a review of the use of asbestos in PSPC facilities to address health and safety concerns and concluded that alternative materials were available for use in construction and major rehabilitation projects. Based on that, as of April 1, 2016, the use of asbestos in PSPC's new construction and major renovation projects was prohibited.
To see the national asbestos inventory, visit http://www.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/biens-property/documents/invamiante-asbestosinv-eng.pdf.
Health & Safety Magazine Issues can be picked up free of charge at your local association.
The federal governmet has announced a comprehensive ban on asbestos, promising to create new regulations that will prohibit the manufacture, use, import and export of a mineral that was once commonly used in construction and has ravaged the health of thousands of construction workers for decades.
A 2018 deadline has been declared for implementation of the new policies. The Internationol Agency for Research on Cancer declared asbestos a carcinogen in 1987 but it was still mined and exported from Quebec until 2011 and it ia still in limited use, with imports rising, in the construction and automotive sectors and elsewhere.
Statistics reported by the insulators indicate that plumbers, pipefitters and insulators were the most frequent victims of occupational disease claims, and even though widespread use of pure asbestos began to diminish almost 30 years ago, the fibres linger in the body and asbestos-related diseases still claim over 2,000 lives a year today.
Starting January 01, 2017, Ontario's cap and trade legislation takes effect but its impact on the construction and demolition industry is still muddy. There is going to be an impact on waste streams over the next 12 to 18 months, state industry experts.
Under the new system, companies must prepare to submit a report if they emit 10,000 tonnes of more of green house gases emissions in a year.
Construction and demolition sector's will have to grapple with both cap and trade and new legislation, the Waste-Free Ontario Act, will set limits on what goes into landfill, including construction waste.
Bill 151 was passed June 1 and will trasform Waste Diversion Ontario into a new agency, with the power to enforce compliance, obtain serach warrants and seize documents and materials.
According to the most recent figures, in 2013 about 22 per cent of all garbage is created by the construction, renovation and demolition sector, with about 12 per cent diverted. This leave 88 per cent heading to landfill.
Many materials are recycled and reused.
Construction sites are dangerous places. Safety hazards lurk around every corner. This is evident by the high rate of occupational fatalities and injuries that occur each year in construction. Falls, electrocutions, heavy equipment rollovers and collapsing scaffolding are just a small number of ways workers can be seriously injured or killed on a construction site.
Construction firms that have achieved excellent safety records didn't get them by accident. They aren't lucky. These companies have made safety a key tenet of their company culture and have established proven safety programs that help them attain a goal of creating a zero accident work environment to protect their employees.
Building safer construction sites isn't easy. It takes a tremendous amount of planning and work. Here are a handful of tips and advice to making every construction site safer.
