Dance of the Ravishers Ch. 01
"It's called the Dance of the Ravishers," Dr. Emory said to me as we watched nine male dancers swirling around two small bonfires.
"I can certainly see why," I responded with a big grin. Dr. Emory gave me a sour look. I'd been warned about that look. In fact, my partner, Steve, had bet me I wouldn't last two months out here in the upper Nile area of Sudan with Dr. Emory. I was accustomed to being serviced by Steve at least once a day and enjoyed a monthly group sex bout. Dr. Emory, however, was a real stick in the mud and was known to send young assistants home at the least hint of impropriety. I really didn't want to go home. Emory had gotten rare permission from the Sudanese to excavate this ancient Egyptian tomb on the banks of the Nile near the Sulb Temple, and work on this dig could make my own reputation.
"What in the world are they doing?" the very serious Clint Winston asked Emory. "Why it looks like. . . ."
"Yes, yes, it's just what you think. But it's all symbolic, part of the ritual dance," Emory responded with pursed lips. Just pretend like you enjoy it. The invitation to the ritual dance was an honor, and we mustn't upset our welcome. The Mitsagusi are an old and proud tribe in this region."
And in quite good shape and very inventive, I thought to myself, desires building in me that I'd tried to suppress for the past four weeks. And Mustafa wasn't helping a bit. My eyes drifted across the cloud of sweet-smelling smoke rising from the bonfires to the delectable Egyptian of the soft brown eyes and long curly eyelashes across the dance circle from me. Mustafa's spellbound eyes were glued to the dancers.
I could easily be spellbound by them too. They were all strapping young bucks, naked for this dance except for a series of woven belts with strips of leather hanging off them so that when they stood still, it almost looked as if they were clothed. One belt surrounded their chests just below their pecs, and the leather strips from this fell almost to their knees. Similar belts were strapped below their biceps and below their knees. Their penises glittered with a golden greasy substance and all were in rock solid erection. Emory had explained with a red face that this was part of the ritual, that the substance covering their penises was from the fruit of the local agwallah bush, which had both lubrication and endurance properties.
Gotta get me some of that, I was thinking. But mostly I was watching the dancers in awe as, to the accompaniment of insistent drums, they went through several tableaus of simulated sexual acts between the fires with an ever-changing cast. First, Two dancers lay prone on the ground, one on top of the other, belly to back, and they undulated in rhythm, their cocks almost touching. During this scene, the other seven dancers whirled around the fire circles, their leather strips swirling around their bodies, showing off their nakedness. A second set of two dancers replaced the first. One of these dancers was really bulked up. He was wrestling with a thinner dancer, who obviously wasn't going to win the match. And when he didn't, the master wrestler brought him up to all fours and simulated fucking him from behind. The number of actors in the center tableau increased to three with the next set. One young buck was bent at the waist, his mouth almost to the cock of another of the dancers, while a dancer stood behind him and undulated his hips, his cock just inches from the ass of the first young buck. Next there were five in the center. Three dancers lifted a fourth parallel to the ground, two at his arms and one between his legs, his cock poised at the levitated dancer's ass. The suspended dancer's head arched back and the fifth dancer brought his cock very close to this dancer's mouth. In the last change of scene, one dancer lay atop another dancer, while a third dancer straddled the chest of the one on top and wagged his cock; A fourth dancer approached the two prone dancers from behind.
God, this was a casino şirketleri real turn-on, I thought, and my eyes searched for Mustafa again across the fires. He was looking at me now, as well, and I could see the burning desire in his eyes. I had been right. Mustafa wanted me as much as I wanted him.
And then with a last swirl around the fires, the dancers were gone, jogging out of the circle and into the gathering darkness in a syncopated line. The drums stopped, and the show was over. It was only then that I realized that the smoke from the fire was having an effect on me, that I was drowsy and felt a little sluggish. I looked around at the group of archaeologists gathered there in the Mitsagusi camp that had been set up quite close to our own and saw that they all were similarly affected.
"So, where are they going off to now?" Winston asked.
"This is their annual fertility ritual," Emory answered. "The tribe has a very peculiar tradition. The men cannot marry until they are thirty, and when they do so, they are monogamous and completely heterosexual for the rest of their lives. But between the ages of twenty and thirty they are expected to maintain their virility by servicing each other. After this dance, these dancers go off into the bush and continue the ritual of service. Before the sun rises, they each have to be serviced at least twice, and preferably three times—each time by a different partner."
"Sounds like an invitation to wholesale AIDs," Winton snorted.
"No, not at all," Emory said. "The tribe keeps mainly to itself, and I've never heard of a case of sexually transmitted decease among their numbers."
"How do they decide who does who?" I asked "I mean, it seems like in a group of nine who had to do it two or three times with different partners tonight, there may be some nasty infighting going on, and someone might not be able to get his quota."
Emory gave me a highly disapproving look. "They have a leader who makes the assignments. He's called the Bull and is chosen naturally by his endowments."
"Ah, yes," I said before I could check myself. "I had no trouble picking the Bull out. He was also the tallest and most studly of the group."
"Humph," Emory retorted, giving me that "I've got my eye on you" look. "Well, enough of this. We should be going back to our own camp. We have a busy day ahead of us, and I'm feeling a bit drowsy and lethargic."
The dancers had really set me on edge. I had a raging hard on, and I didn't know if I could keep my hands off Mustafa even for the two months Steve had been willing to spot me in our bet. I was sitting in my sleeping shorts in my tent in the light of two candles, trying to do some background reading on the artifacts we would be looking for in the tomb, when a breeze swirled the gauze curtains at the doorway to the tent and I looked up to see Mustafa standing there in the shadows, looking at me. He was dressed in a white muslin caftan, with a thick red silk sash around his waist. As I watched, he slowly unwound the sash, and when it fell to the ground, his caftan opened to reveal a beautiful, naked, lithe body, with a respectable-sized cock and balls swinging between his legs.
I made an animal sound and pulled him into the tent and against my chest. Our lips and tongues found each other, and I felt him push the front of my shorts down and hold our cocks together in both of his hands. His lips traveled down to my nipples and then to my navel. And then he was taking my cock into his mouth and making love to it. My knees were trembling. Steve had won. I hadn't managed to hold off for even half the time he had predicted. Mustafa's tongue was driving me wild. I pulled him up by his arms and laid him on his back on the edge of my cot. I quickly had a tube of lubrication and a condom out of my night drawer, applied them, wishboned Mustafa's legs, and fucked him deeply until we were both exhausted.
I was nearly asleep when Mustafa left me, telling me that casino firmaları he'd return momentarily to take his turn fucking me. I vaguely remember hearing a muffled cry, as if from an unknown bird, after he had drifted through the swaying curtain at the doorway, and a shuffling sound, but then I turned onto my belly on the cot and slept until deep into the night.
I slowly came to my senses, or at least partially to my senses, my head still affected by the strange smoke from the Mitsagusis' fires, with the sensation of a heavy load on my back. My body was being covered by a quick searching of hands that covered every curve and explored every crevice. Mustafa had come back to me and was going to fuck me, I thought. And I was very pleased at this. I felt a cock rising up the small of my back between my back and the belly of my lover. A big cock. No, a huge cock. And that's when I realized that this wasn't Mustafa. This was the Bull. The Mitsagusi tribe's Bull. I both shuddered and was exhilarated at the thought of this. I was going to be fucked by that strapping leader of the Mitsagusi youths.
The Bull rose up on his haunches, straddling my hips between his knees. He was holding me flat against the bed with strong hands palmed out over my shoulder blades. And then he entered me. Steve was unusually thick, but he wasn't this thick. Whatever that agwallah bush pulp was, it was a wonder, because the Bull slid into me almost effortlessly. And although, I felt stretched to the limit, I felt little pain. But, boy did I feel the pleasure. The Bull could fuck me all night if he wanted, I thought, his big black dick churning inside me, and I still thought that some twenty minutes later when he was still plowing me at depths that Steve had never reached. I was moving my hips with his and moaning real good for him, so I'm sure he got the message that I enjoyed this. After entering me, he had folded his strong body over mine and held my arms over my head by my wrists. He even did some serious work on my neck with his swollen lips and teeth, and the guttural sounds he was making indicated to me that this wasn't only to fulfill his ritual. I was very happy he had chosen me as one of his three for the night, and wondered if any of his eight compatriots would be angry that I had supplanted his turn with the Bull.
When the Bull had flooded me deep with his cum, he rose off me; slapped my butt, which I took as a signal that he'd had a good time; and was gone. When I could gather some of my wits about me, I struggled out of the bed and over toward the wash basin to clean myself off.
En route to the wash basin, I found myself in the grip of the husky wrestler from the dancer's tableau. He pushed me to the ground and we fought for purchase and domination. There was no doubt he was going to win, but I kept wrestling with him until I was completely exhausted and lay panting on the ground with his knees encasing my thighs. A strong arm wrapped around my belly from behind and he lifted my pelvis to his awaiting cock. He wasn't as thick as the Bull, but he was thicker than Steve. He was on one knee and had his other leg in a crouch position, his foot flat on the ground. The agwallah bush pulp smearing his club allowed my ass to slide back and forth on to his cock as effortlessly as the Bull had entered me, and the wrestler just pumped me up and down on his cock like I was a curling weight. It was quite enjoyable, really, and I felt particularly privileged that two of the dancers had sought me out to share their ritual with me, an outsider. The wrestler came inside me and left me, and I struggled to my feet again, still intent on cleaning myself off.
I never made it to the wash basin, however. One pair of strong hands shoot out of the dark and grabbed me by the hips from behind, while another set grabbed me in front by the shoulders and bent me over frontward. Another dick, more slender than either the Bull's or the wrestler's, plowed into my ass, while the dancer in front güvenilir casino of me forced a short, but thick greased cock between my lips and started circular motions with his hips. The agwallah bush pulp not only was a very good lubricant, but it also tasted pretty good too. The face-fucking dancer must have been a little anxious, because he came quickly. Perhaps he was surprised that I had enthusiastically taken on the job of jacking him off with my mouth. The ass-fucking dancer took a little longer, but when I wiggled my butt for him, and reached back and squeezed his balls, he cried out as he came. I heard the crack of a hand across his mouth, however, no doubt applied by the Bull, and he didn't make any further noise.
These two satisfied customers handed me off to multiple sets of roaming hands. Two figures appeared behind me, each putting one hand under one of my elbows and a palm on a shoulder blade as two hands on each of my thighs pulled my body up, holding me there, in suspension, parallel to the ground. They wishboned my legs, as two other hands were on my butt cheeks, pulling them apart, and a set of heavily muscled legs and a rock-solid, thick cock approached me between my legs. I arched my back and my head snapped back as a cock almost as splitting as the Bull's pushed its way into my now well-churned hole. As I should have expected, a dick pushed into my mouth when I snapped my head back. I writhed my body for my lovers, and they both came fairly quickly. I was so glad that I'd had so much practice in group fucking. And now I understood that I wasn't being singled out by a couple of the dancers to help fulfill their ritual; they were mirroring their ritual on me while fulfilling one of their three obligations for the night.
Thus, I wasn't really surprised when the four dancers who had held me in suspension lowered me onto the body of another dancer whose long, slender cock replaced the plump sausage of my last butt fucker. The two dancers at my arms gave control over to the man under me, who got me in somewhat of a full Nelson, immobilizing my arms. He fucked up into me for a few minutes, during which time the two dancers at my feet had kept my legs spread-eagled. A second dancer straddled my chest and had me suck him off. After a few minutes of the solo work at my butt, my legs were bent up against the back of the dancer straddling my chest and my hips were rolled up. Another dancer then crouched behind me and forced his slender cock in above that of the man under me, double-fucking me. The dancer under me pumped in and out, while the one above me undulated his hips and rotated his cock inside me. The dancer on my chest had reached back and was stroking my cock vigorously. All four of us shot our loads in quick succession.
They left me then, exhausted, stretched out on my cot. I had been through the whole ritual with the entire, very virile youth class of the Mitsagusi tribe, and I not only had survived the ravishing but had thoroughly enjoyed it. Maybe this would hold me for a couple of months and Dr. Emory wouldn't be destined to find me porking his precious Egyptian assistant, Mustafa. But probably not.
Fingers of light were forcing themselves through the waving gauze curtain at the doorway when I woke again. I struggled off my cot, pulled on my jeans and a T-shirt and hobbled to the doorway. I pushed aside the curtain and looked searchingly over toward the Mitsagusi tribal camp. Regrettably, they were gone. Sometime before dawn they had struck camp and were on the march, beyond the horizon of the flat landscape of sandy earth that stretched from every direction of our camp.
I looked over at Mustafa's tent and saw him bent over and as bowlegged as I was as he struggled through his doorway.
So that's why he didn't return to me. I wondered briefly what arrangements the tribe had made for their third servicing of the night. Maybe they'd had one go at each other before they'd visited Mustafa and me. Then again, Clint Winston never showed up for breakfast, and when I did see him next, he could hardly walk, but he had a mighty big smile on his face. Whatever the truth of this, I knew that neither Mustafa nor I would be reporting the ritual ravishing to Dr. Emory.

La beauté indiscrète d'une note violette
Todor Todoroff graduated in civil engineering, with a specialization in telecommunications, from the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB, Brussels, Belgium) in 1987. He received a First Prize in electroacoustic composition from the Conservatoire royal de Bruxelles in 1993 as well as a post-graduate diploma from the Conservatoire royal de Mons (Mons, Belgium) in 1996.
First a researcher in the field of speech analysis and synthesis at the Laboratoire de phonétique expérimentale (Laboratory of Experimental Phonetics) at the ULB, he then became head of computer music research at the Faculté polytechnique de Mons and at the Conservatoire royal de Mons from 1992-97, where instruments he developed were used by composers Leo Kupper and Robert Normandeau. On multiple occasions he collaborated with IRCAM (Paris, France) where his software tools were used by Joshua Fineberg, Emmanuel Nunes and Luca Francesconi, among others.
He resumed work as a researcher at the Numediart institute within the Université de Mons from 2008-13 and taught within the digital arts program at Arts2, part of the École supérieure des arts in Mons, from 2008-15. Alongside this work and within the context of ARTeM (Art, recherche, technologie et musique [Art, Research, Technology, and Music]), since 1993 he has been developing interactive systems for studio environments, concerts, sound installations and dance performances which explore the possibilities of a wide variety of sensors. He developed sensors for violinist Stevie Wishart and the Quartet project by Margie Medlin (Australia), supported by a SCIART grant from the Wellcome Trust (UK) and by ZKM (Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie) (Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe), which premiered in London (UK) in February 2007. For this project, he collaborated with Ian Winter of the Physiological Laboratory at the University of Cambridge (UK) on the creation of real-time analysis tools and virtual sound-processing instruments, based on models of the inner ear and of neurons associated with auditory perception. He also participated in the technological development of interactive audiovisual installations with FoAM in Brussels, in particular for the Phæno Science Center in Wolfsburg (Germany).
His electroacoustic music demonstrates a special interest in multichannel composition and the use of space, as well as in experimenting with new methods of interaction and sound transformation, where gesture plays an important role. He revisits the concept of the séquence-jeu (play-sequences associated with specific gestures) in the digital domain, in order to achieve a greater degree of expressivity.
In parallel to his work in fixed-medium acousmatic music, he develops gesture-controlled virtual instruments for live performance in electroacoustic concerts. These were first used in the context of improvisations with, among others, Jean-Paul Dessy, Eric Sleichim, and Stevie Wishart and subsequently were used for solo concerts in 2007 in Reykjavik (Iceland). In September 2007, following a commission from the ZKM in Karlsruhe (Germany), they were combined with new spatialization algorithms for solo concerts in Karslruhe, Budapest, and Munich. The most recent versions were used by an ensemble of twelve musicians performing with joysticks, gamepads and sensors for a 2011 Ars Musica festival concert in Mons and for the interactive audiovisual work eVanescens, begun in 2012. In this work, cellist Sigrid Vandenbogaerde wears sensors which he designed to impact as much the sound of her instrument as the interactive video. These virtual instruments also played a central role in his works premiered at two recent editions of the Ars Musica festival in Brussels: his duo with cello, Pendula-Anima, in 2014 and his solo Different Rites in 2016.
Passionate about creating dialogue with other art forms, he also composes music for film, video, dance, theatre, and sound installations. His long artistic collaboration with Belgian choreographer Michèle Noiret began in 1988 and has continued through 16 productions to the present day, as they prepare a new work for 2019. He has also produced a series of interactive installations, often in collaboration with visual artists, including Marie-Jo Lafontaine, Fred Vaillant, Mario Benjamin, and Laura Colmenares Guerra.
He has received commissions from, among others: the Opéra de Paris (France), Ars Musica (Belgium), IMEB (France), ZKM (Germany), Art Zoyd (France), Musiques Nouvelles (Belgium), Musée des Beaux-Arts d'Angers (France), Nuit blanche (Belgium), and Festivaal van Vlaanderen (Belgium). His work tied for the Public prize at the Noroit-Léonce Petitot Competition (France, 1991), received Mentions (2002, '05, '09) and a First Prize (2007) at the Bourges International Electroacoustic Music Competition (France) and has been a finalist a number of times. His music has been broadcast on radio in many countries and has been performed in many international concerts and festivals.
He is founding member and president of the Belgian Federation for Electroacoustic Music (FeBeME-BeFEM) and of ARTeM in Brussels (Belgium), as well as a founding member of the Forum des compositeurs (Composers' Forum). He was also the Belgian representative of the European COST (Cooperation in Science & Technology) actions "Digital Audio Effects" (DAFX, 1997-2001) and "Gesture Controlled Audio Systems" (CONGAS, 2003-07).

WA mining jobs with Fortescue Metals Group boost after rating upgraded
WA Mining Jobs
WA Mining Jobs could soar with Fortescue on target to produce 155 million tonnes by Dec 2013
Fortescue Metals Group Ltd, the fourth largest iron ore producer in the world, has given investors a strong surge of confidence with a recent upgrading of its debt rating by Standard & Poor (S&P) "� moving up from negative to stable.
Debt-laden Fortescue was looking a little shaky for some time however under Chief Executive Nev Power, who has adopted a savvy and conservative approach to growth, the company it seems is rebounding with a new found vigor. The company has responded to volatile iron ore prices by reducing its operations that have been draining its cash and by doing so has significantly improved its cash-flow position. S & P have stated they expect Fortescue to recover in the 2014 fiscal year.
Fortescue chases a production target of 155 million tonnes per annnum
Fortescue ramped up construction of its fully integrated production to complete it in record time, which has set industry standards. In the very near future, we expect to see Fortescue truly emerge as an iron-ore world power. As such, WA mining jobs in the Pilbara region are expected to flourish as the company races toward its production target of 155 million tonnes as soon as December 2013.
Five years after its first production, Fortescue will produce iron ore at a staggering rate, cementing its position as the fourth largest sea born iron ore producer in the world. Thought the expansion of the Chichester Hub and the development of the Solomon Mine, Fortescue is on target to reach the production of 155 million tonnes as soon as December 2013 and a flurry of mining jobs in WA (with production expanding), would obviously be a running affect.
Chichester Hub expectation of 95 million tonnes per annum
In September 2012 a major milestone was achieved with the commissioning of the second Christmas Creek ore processing facility near WA mining central of Pilbara, which pushed the mines capacity to 50 million tonnes p.a and the nearby Chichester Hub capacity to 95 million tonnes p.a.
Just 200km away the development at Solomon provides Fortescue with a low cost operation taking advantage of low strip ratios and Fortescue's existing integrated supply chain. The initial development at Solomon`s mine is well underway contributing 20 million tonnes p.a, lifting production totals to 115 tonnes per annum.
Kings Deposit development at Solomon is set to be completed by the end of 2013
Finally, the 40 million tonne p.a Kings Deposit development at Solomon is set to be completed by the end of 2013, taking the total capacity to the targeted 155 million tonnes p.a.
Fortescue has revealed that up to 13 trains per day each nearly 3kms long will deliver product to the company`s export hub at Port Hedland. Once at Fortescue's highly automated port facility it is unloaded and stockpiled prior to shipping.
Fortescue has consolidated its position as an alternative reliable supplier of iron to China the world`s largest consumer and emerging SE Asia markets, achieving a milestone in 2012 with the opening or three train unloaders expanding the ports unloader capacity to 180 million tonnes p.a. As the action has heated up in this ever-evolving resource rich area mining jobs in Pilbara, WA are ever-present.
Fortescue remains very confident in China's commitment to economic growth
Fortescue has stated it remains very confident in China's commitment to economic growth and expects this will lead to continued growth and demand for steel (meaning more WA mining jobs). They have also the ability to continue advancing and have ensured they can sustainably meet Asia`s growing supply deficit from their ever-expanding Australian iron ore production.
Fortescue is therefore ensuring their company and the Pilbara Region remains the world`s dominant region for a seaborn supply of iron ore.
Round the clock operations have seen the company set new standards across the Pilbara. Cycle times for moving product from mine to port are the shortest of all the major Pilbara operators.
Right now the foremost priority of the company is to concentrate on boosting margins at existing mines rather than major committing to spending on growth projects.
This means rather than start building their fourth iron ore mine in 2013- the Nyidinghu mine (35km south of its Cloudbreak mine), Fortescue will be concentrating on continuing to increase their production volume and ramp up current expansion, with a view of Nyidinghu mine to be operating by 2016.
What This Means for Mining Jobs in WA?
If they stay on the mission to reduce their capital and reach their targeted production of 155 million tonnes by December 2013 – to become the largest producer of iron-ore in Australia, Fortescue will be hiring and expanding their workforce significantly in the near future "� meaning WA mining jobs will be opening up all the time. Right now current jobs at Fortescue Metals include all types of roles, from Rail Operations Specialists on a 5/2 roster with housing benefits, numerous maintenance technician or surveyor roles on an 8/6 Roster ex Perth and Indigenous Cadetship opportunities. Proudly an Australian founded and run company, Fortescue is a commanding force of the future for iron-ore and offers a continuous flow of mining jobs in WA.
Why a WA Job With Fortescue is a good career move?
Fortescue have increased their iron ore production volume, streamlined production costs and have produced low capital expenditure forecasts.
The Pilbara mining company is on track to complete its 155 million tonne target by the end of 2013 and will continue to increase its production in 2014.
June 2013 quarterly iron ore shipments were reported at 25 million tonnes, a hefty jump of 24�percent increase on the prior quarter.
Their shipping of 81 million tonnes of iron ore� from Port Hedland during the 2012/13 financial year, was up 41 percent on the previous year.
Standad & Poors recently upgraded Fortescue from being a risk to a stable company also said it would consider raising its rating if the company maintains a disciplined approach to capital management, dividend payments and funding for expansion.
Record levels of steel production in China were maintained during the quarter with actual June steel output of 64.7mt following a record 67mt in May according to the China Iron & Steel Association.
January to June 2013 crude steel output was up 7.4 percent to 389.87mt which equates to an annualised rate of 786mt compared to actual production of 717 million tonnes in 2012. Steel prices have improved with high levels of steel production; the current low level of iron ore inventory in the system has resulted in recent iron ore re-stocking.
"Fortescue Blend", (their new upgraded iron ore product) will be released shortly. This blended product of iron ore from its various Pilbara mines, fully realises the benefits of the low impurity Chichester and higher iron content Firetail products.

Following our classic Norwegian Noir theme this summer, we are handing out a copy of The Caveman, the ninth mystery of Jørn Lier Horst's extremely successful William Wisting series, to a lucky winner.
A former Senior Investigating Officer in the Norwegian police force, Jørn Lier Horst made his literary debut in 2004 with his true-crime novel Key Witness. Since then, Horst has become one of the foremost Nordic crime writers with his 10-volume William Wisting series having been translated into 30 languages and sold more than 1 500 000 copies in his home country alone.
Only three houses away from William Wisting's home, a man has been sitting dead in front of his television set for four months. There are no indications that anything criminal has taken place. Viggo Hansen was a man nobody ever noticed, even though he lived in the midst of a close-knit community. Has Norwegian society become so coarsened that no one cares? Wisting's journalist daughter, Line, wants to know.
The Caveman is not just an intriguing, fast-paced thriller, but a thoughtful meditation on loneliness, and a moving testament to the value of each and every human life.
The writer's career as a police chief has supplied a key indgredient for the crime fiction form: credibility.
When published in English by Sandstone Press in 2015, The Caveman was honoured with The Petrona Award for Best Scandinavia Crime Novel 2016 in the UK. The William Wisting mysteries have earned Horst a succession of prestigious prizes, such as the Martin Beck Award, The Glass Key and the Golden Revolver.
Follow this link to enter our book club competition to win a copy of The Caveman. Horst will also make an appearance at Edinburgh International Book Festival, where he will present the latest novel in the series, When It Grows Dark, on 13 August.

For a team to operate, individuals within that team must behave in certain ways and display certain characteristics. There must be an overarching culture that defines how individuals are expected to perform, however there must also be freedom for individual expression within this framework. Here I will look at a few of the individual characteristics important to the success of the team from a high performance sport perspective.
In high performance sport there is a level of trust that those in the team will do their job. Leaders and other players don't have the time to make sure each individual is focused and working as they should. Leaders need to support their team, but if they have to spend too much time worrying about others, it removes focus from their own responsibilities and compromises the team. Trust that those in your team are capable to do what is expected of them. If not, work hard to upskill them. It relates to the earlier point, a team must play to individual strengths and improve weaknesses.
To assist this, and to improve performance, a team must operate out of their comfort zone. Easier said than done, but if a team wants to be successful it must push its boundaries. Individuals within the team need to commit to this, and learn how to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Those who like the safety of their comfort zone will hold a team back.
A team can also be stifled by those who fail to find solutions. The route to success is not a smooth ascent and successful teams have individuals who look for answers rather than dwelling on problems that arise.
Allied to this is an ability to control the controllables. Find solutions if there are solutions to be had, and be aware of potential difficulties you may encounter. But don't waste time trying to solve problems you have absolutely no control over. This appears to be pointing out the obvious but there are numerous occasions when rugby players are worried about the weather. Yes, you need to prepare and know what to expect but I have yet to meet anybody that can control the weather. So why waste time worrying about it and hoping the forecast might be wrong.
In high performing teams there are a number of dynamics to how the team operates. Providing a culture that requires individuals to develop, and improve, creates a high performance environment. You then need to populate it with individuals willing to push themselves to improve. And to do so for the greater good of the team.

North Rockland's Tuohy Repeats As Gatorade XC Runner Of The Year
Second verse… same as the first…
In its 34th year of honoring the nation's most elite high school athletes, The Gatorade Company today announced Katelyn Tuohy of North Rockland High School in Thiells, New York as the 2018-19 Gatorade National Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year, her second time winning the award and fourth overall national Gatorade Runner of the Year title. Tuohy won the award for her accomplishments on and off the field, joining a group of Gatorade National Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year awardees that have gone on to have incredible success – they've combined for 25 gold medals and eight National Championships.
And… she's only a junior!
Tuohy was awarded during a special trophy presentation at her school while surrounded by family, friends, teammates and coaches. Check out a video of the announcement here.
The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field, distinguishes Tuohy as the nation's best high school girls cross country runner. A national advisory panel comprised of sport-specific experts and sports journalists helped select Tuohy from thousands of high school cross country runners nationwide. Tuohy is now a finalist for the most prestigious award in high school sports, the Gatorade Female High School Athlete of the Year award, which is announced at a special ceremony prior to The ESPY Awards in July.
"It seemed far-fetched that Katelyn Tuohy could exceed her exploits of 2017, but she made it happen and got even better in doing so," said Dyestat.com Editor-in-Chief Doug Binder. "She obliterated course records at Holmdel Park in New Jersey, Sunken Meadow in New York and broke her own course record at Nike Cross Nationals. Tuohy's claim on the title of 'greatest of all-time' became a vice grip. Her focus, dedication to details and incredible work ethic has driven her into new territory. Her ability to take out a fast pace, and then hold it, may be the best in prep history."
The 5-foot-4 junior raced to her second consecutive Nike Cross Nationals championship this past season, breaking her own course record by clocking a 16:37.8. The 2017-18 Gatorade Female High School Athlete of the Year, Tuohy also won the Class A individual state championship in 17:02.1 and finished first at the NXN New York Regional championships in 17:14. Unbeaten for the second consecutive season, Tuohy hasn't lost an outdoor 5K since December of 2016. The reigning Gatorade National Cross Country Runner of the Year as well as the 2017-18 Gatorade National Track & Field Athlete of the Year, she also broke the tape first at the Section 1 championships, the Rockland County championships, the Shore Coaches Invitational and the Suffolk Officials Invitational this past fall.
Tuohy has volunteered locally on behalf of youth soccer and running programs, and the Rose Memorial Library. She has maintained an A average in the classroom and will begin her senior year of high school this fall.
"Katelyn Tuohy has earned recognition for being the nation's best high school girls cross country runner while also having high standards of academic achievement and being a pillar in her community," said Gatorade Senior Vice President and General Manager Brett O'Brien. "Katelyn's athletic ability speaks for itself, but what really sets her apart is her successes in the classroom and exemplary character."
Through Gatorade's cause marketing platform "Play it Forward," Tuohy has the opportunity to award a $1,000 grant to a local or national youth sports organization of her choosing. She is also eligible to submit an essay to win one of twelve $10,000 spotlight grants for the organization of choice, which will be announced throughout the year.
Each year a selection committee evaluates the nation's top talent in the District of Columbia and all 50 states, choosing national winners in 12 different sports: football, volleyball, boys and girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, baseball, softball, boys and girls soccer, and boys and girls track & field. From the 12 national winners, one male and one female athlete are each named Gatorade High School Athlete of the Year.

Thread: Unable to install CM7, any ideas?
Try doing a search for ATRIX rom racer cwm and replacing your recovery with that one.
I'll try that tonight. So far I've been pretty impressed by Alien 4, but I'd like to have the ability to switch between ROM's. Just out of curiousity, how long does the initial boot of CM7 take?
Sometimes after hacking, I believe that the boot logo stays on indefinitely. I sometimes resort to a battery pull, which can send you into a boot loop (in which case you'll have to boot into recovery and flash a different ROM or clear data from fastboot).
By indefinitely do you mean longer than five minutes? That's about how long I'll wait before I stop staring at the Motorola dual core logo, pull the battery, and flash back to Alien.
I've read a lot of good things about the Alien ROM, but its single biggest drawback is that it's no longer being updated, therefore any problems or issues that may arise won't ever be corrected. If you're more comfortable with a ROM that's still being actively developed, I'd look into Aura or DarkSide (if you want a Blur-based ROM) or CM7 (or a derivative of it, such as RedPill-CM7 or Neutrino). And FWIW, when I installed RedPill-CM7 (after wiping data, cache, and Dalvik cache), the initial boot took less than 5 minutes (maybe not even that long; it just seemed longer).
I usually wait 2 minutes and then pull the battery. I've heard of peoples phones going on after 5-10 minutes on the boot screen and I've heard people kill their battery waiting.
OK, this is what happened. I rebooted my device, went into recovery and made a backup, rebooted and went into fastboot, then I got the error message "failed to process command CNXN error (0x120000). I have no idea what to do about this. I've reinstalled the phone drivers, used the auto unlocker I used to unlock it to run a fastboot check and it said that it was in invalid command. Any suggestions for this?
That's odd..did you get RomRacer's CWM installed along with CM7 successfully?
Finally got the phone, any ideas for quick setup?


11/01/2013 · Hi, I want to break out of an if statement if one of the nested if statements is true. When I use the "break" it breaks me out of the if statement and the switch statement.
How do you break out of nested IF loops without using GOTO?
Want to use a button to jump out of a loop at anytime.
Within nested statements, the break statement terminates only the do, for, switch, or while statement that immediately encloses it. You can use a return or goto statement to transfer control elsewhere out of the nested structure.
A relative of break is the continue statement: When continue is called inside a loop body, it immediately jumps up to the loop condition—thus continuing with the next iteration of the loop. It is a little less common than break , and generally it should be avoided altogether.

Communications Stocks Are Buys in a Disconnect
Wells Fargo Securities
We believe the 10% selloff in communications-equipment stocks over the last two weeks, versus the Nasdaq down 7%, is likely to present an attractive entry point as we expect sector fundamentals to remain healthy through the second half.
To this point, we highlight that our second-quarter information-technology (IT) survey and recent conversations with a diverse set of industry contacts noted improved enterprise-network spending intentions in North America and Europe, which we believe was supported by recent results and outlooks from many of our covered companies. While overall carrier spending remains more subdued, capital-expenditure guidance from the tier-1 U.S. operators point towards modest second-half improvement relative to the first half of 2015, even though the outlooks for many of our covered companies embed flattish second- and first-half trends. Importantly, emerging market exposures remain modest, with most of our covered companies maintaining low-single-digit or less exposure to China.
With fundamentals likely to further improve over the next few quarters and valuations for many companies near trough levels, we remain positive on the communications-equipment space and continue to recommend investors buy shares of CommScope Holding (ticker: COMM ), Cisco Systems ( CSCO ), Juniper Networks ( JNPR ), Ciena ( CIEN ), Arista Networks ( ANET ), F5 Networks ( FFIV ) and Radware ( RDWR ).
We believe U.S. and European enterprise network spending remains healthy entering the second half. We believe this notion was supported during our second-quarter IT survey which saw networking rise to the #2 IT priority (up from #3 during our fourth-quarter 2014 inquiry) with a high level of respondents considering the network a high IT priority. We believe feedback from our second-quarter survey was supported by more recent conversations with a diverse set of industry contacts, in both the U.S. and Europe, the majority of which noted strong pipelines of activity entering the second half. Importantly, with most of the economic data coming out of the U.S. and Europe still relatively favorable, and outlooks from off cycle networking companies, such as Cisco and Brocade Communications Systems ( BRCD ), pointing towards healthy end market demand, we continue to feel good about network spending intentions within these important regions.
We expect U.S. carrier capital expenditures to improve during the second half. We note that using the midpoint of forecasts from the tier-1 U.S. operators suggests spending by these carriers is likely to rise 17% during the second half relative to the first half and see a return to modest year-over-year growth as comps ease over the next few quarters. While the tier-1 U.S. carriers may continue to underspend plan, we believe this potential is already reflected in the outlooks for Ciena, Cisco, CommScope and Juniper, which assume little to no second-half improvement with these important customers. As a result, we see the potential for second-half upside if these carriers spend to plan and some of these investments drive incremental network upgrades.
Emerging market exposures remain low across the group. With the exception of Ubiquiti Networks ( UBNT ), we believe the majority of our covered companies receive 15% or less of total revenue from the emerging markets and 5% or less from China. While demand in the emerging theatres is likely to further weaken, we believe this is consistent with expectations for most of our covered companies.
We remain positive on the communications-equipment group and continue to prefer names like CommScopre, Cisco, Juniper and Ciena where fundamentals are likely to improve and valuations remain attractive. We also continue to recommend Arista given the company's exceptional growth profile and high exposure to domestic data center builds where we believe activity is likely to remain robust. We view F5 and Radware as inexpensive ways to play continued strength in the data center and the security markets.

I was born and raised near Phoenix, Arizona. My family includes my wife, one son, three daughters and a silver Labrador Retriever. One summer early in my college career, I was serving as a Portuguese interpreter for a medical team in central Mozambique. My experiences caring for the war-ravaged community there helped motivate my interest in pursuing medical training. My exposure to destitute communities and humble people during almost four years abroad in South America, Africa and Asia continues to influence the physician I am and who I hope to become.
As your anesthesiologist, I care about you, your preferences and the quality of your experience in surgery. When we meet, I will listen to you and involve you in making decisions that match your priorities. I hope you will sense my sincere interest in providing you with thoughtful, personalized, evidence-based medicine. I am grateful for the trust you place in me during your surgery, and I take seriously my responsibility to provide you with the best possible care.
When I am not working, there is nothing I'd rather be doing than exploring the mountains, hiking, biking and camping with family and friends. I chose to study medicine on the East Coast, but when I began looking for a job, I chose a location that would allow me to take my four kids and dog into the same mountains I had enjoyed when I was young. For much of my adult life, I have been involved in humanitarian work in Asia, Africa and South America. In 2002, I helped create an organization in southern India to strengthen and support slum communities. Our organization teaches community-level problem solving, health and nutrition, gardening, and literacy. We train our communities to access infrastructural and life-sustaining resources. I also try to stay actively involved in my local community, volunteering with youth and scouting programs.

Governments need to plan better for rising migration driven by climate change, experts said on Thursday, citing evidence that extreme weather and natural disasters force far more people from their homes than wars.
Projections by leading climate scientists of rising sea levels, heatwaves, floods and droughts linked to global warming are likely to oblige millions of people to move out of harm's way, with some never able to return.
"Natural disasters displace three to 10 times more people than all conflicts and war in the world combined," said Jan Egeland, head of the Norwegian Refugee Council which runs the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) in Geneva.
"Many more people in a growing population live more exposed to more extreme weather," Egeland told a conference about migration and climate change in Oslo.
Chaloka Beyani, the United Nations' special rapporteur on the human rights of internally displaced persons, told Reuters that governments should step up planning for migrants.
Sea level rise of 19cm (8 inches) since 1900, caused by factors including a thaw of glaciers from the Andes to the Alps and of Greenland's ice sheet, aggravates storm surges in many coastal regions, according to the UN panel of climate experts.
The panel's scenarios point to a further rise of 26 to 82cm by the late 21st century. The panel says it is at least 95% probable that human activities, led by burning of fossil fuels, are the main cause of warming.
Climate change also added reasons for people to leave home by disrupting food and water supplies. "Access to resources, constrained by climatic factors, breeds conflict," he said.

POWER focuses on reusing EE waste in Bergen
What you throw away can be repaired and resold.
Proper management of electrical waste is important, but reuse is the most environmentally friendly option for handling EE waste. POWER, our partner from Norway, has taken this seriously, and through its partner, Norsirk, POWER in Bergen has entered into an agreement with the company Elektrotec, which takes care of repairs and resale of their EE waste.
– It is not uncommon to hear customers say "It works just fine" or "Is this something you can use because it is a shame to just throw it away", so, therefore, we are happy to present this solution in Bergen, says Frank Sande, who is the responsible environment for POWER Bergen Sentrum.
Reuse is in the wind like never before, and POWER is keen to do its part of the environmental charity.
– Reuse of EE waste is a sustainable solution, which means that the products can be used longer and that you can buy goods more cheaply, says Sande.
Continues Oslo success
In Oslo, POWER has had this solution for a long time, then in collaboration with Nordsirk and the company Sirkular.
– We hope to achieve the same in Bergen. If enough EE articles are sent for reuse, this could create more jobs in transport, reception, and sales, says Frank Sande.
The department stores this applies to so far are: Power Knarvik, Åsane, Sentrum Bergen, Lagunen, Vestkanten, Drotningsvik and Askøy.

It all started with Raf Simon's debut collection for Calvin Klein; the brand's PVC raincoats became an instant—almost viral—favorite amongst fashion's elite. Since then, all things shiny and plastic have taken the fashion world by storm.
Fast-forward to now, and this trend is alive and well. We're seeing it in various forms just about everywhere, from the runways to the streets. Chanel, Balmain, and Prabal Gurung sent clear PVC shoes down the runway, while Valentino, Céline, and Altuzarra featured see-through bags of all shapes and sizes. In terms of ready-to-wear, look no further than Marc Jacobs' shiny, transparent jackets or the influx of clear plastic raincoats currently hitting shelves. And then there's the presence of vinyl—seen both on the runways and on this season's crop of street style stars currently attending the Fall 2018 fashion shows.
Below, we rounded up 16 perfectly plastic pieces to sprinkle into your spring wardrobes. From entirely see-through pants and bags that leave little to the imagination to the shiniest vinyl skirts and jackets, we've got you covered (well, partially).
Check out our picks, below.
Mango, Vinyl Trousers, $59.99, available at Mango.

Fire Mitigation in Evergreen Meadows-Seeking Volunteers: We are looking for volunteers to be part of a team for fire mitigation in the EMHA area. This includes both sides of Highway 73. I've attached some supplemental information.
John Chapman has been very involved in our area in identifying areas that should be mitigated and making recommendations. This is meant to help first responders if a fire were to occur here, residents with ideas on improving the fire mitigation on their property and the association. It will involve a few meetings and a drive or two around the EMHA area. We are looking for 5-7 volunteers to meet with John next month. He will train people so no experience in the field is necessary.
Please contact Pete Dunbar at president@emha.us if you are interested or would like more information.

Meet Meachers: Joanne Crouch – Carnival Administration Manager
Having grown up in Southampton, Joanne Crouch is very familiar with the importance of the cruise industry to the city. With a career in operations management, she became Carnival Administration Manager for Meachers following roles including Head of Customer Operations for Gemma International.
"My career has always been in operations management; I enjoy the challenge and variety."Joanne is responsible for managing the team that provides a consolidation and delivery service to Carnival and Princess Cruises. "Our team ensures timely receipt of goods into the warehouse for delivery on board Carnival's fleet of ships. From door hinges and toilet rolls through to fillet steak and champagne, we ensure all is delivered worldwide for guests to enjoy their cruise experience." The team's daily tasks include: reviewing receipts due for the day and allocating to the correct ship, updating Carnival's system, checking all areas are covered by the team and ongoing communication with Carnival Head Office resolving queries.
Joanne started the role in December 2019. "I joined Meachers at the busiest time of the year with no experience of the cruise industry! From previously delivering greetings cards to independent high street shops, to shipping 187 40ft containers worldwide in the month of December was a steep learning curve, but thanks to the great Carnival team at Meachers we pulled together and made it happen." Managing a team of ten (currently down to four because of suspended cruise sailings due to COVID-19) Joanne has seen great changes this year. "Working in the supply chain, we have worked all through lockdown, the crew on the ships that are parked up in Weymouth and Southampton still need to eat and the ships still need to be serviced."
For the future, Joanne hopes that Meachers will continue to be a valued and respected company in the sector and that she will still be working in operations management. "I love operations management. My favourite thing about working at Meachers has been learning a whole new industry, whilst complex it is interesting and varied and the friendly and welcoming team have all pulled together during this difficult time."
Joanne is a mum of five children aged 23,22,21 and twins aged 17, and lives in Basingstoke with her husband. She turned 50 earlier this year "although sadly there were no celebrations due to lockdown." She is a very happy Southampton Football Club supporter right now and enjoys holidays, going to concerts and eating out.

Hello sports fans. Good weekend? We had a pretty great one having friends over for dinner both Friday and Saturday. Daddy was unwell Thursday and Friday so although he was ill in bed for most of it it still felt like an extended weekend. Here's a picture of the 9 month old, FEMALE, French looking baby, Lo-Lo, care of Aunty Melanie.
I say female because at this age I think they all look the same and I don't really think it matters if people guess the wrong gender, which happens to her a lot. LOOK AT THOSE CHEEKS! OK, so she could do with a brush. We're well on our way with 6 teeth and she's really getting around now. I think she may start walking on her own by accident soon, you know, do it without realising she's doing it because she's concentrating on something else. Already she's walking at a pace round furniture and quite coherently. There are times where she'll move her feet, arms outstretched from one place to where she wants to get to. She'll go as far as she can then take a leap of faith, let go one arm and then grab hold of the next thing. She even did a mini shimmy last week with her legs. She was free standing near the plant pot, concentrating on moving and actually shifted her right foot along about 3 inches. I have been informed by hubby I am not allowed to claim that as her first step. Fine. But it all feels like it's developing well. I find it fascinating how it all seems to snowball. Within 2 weeks something else will have developed from that first development in a kind of continual evolution. Very exciting times. Uncle David Attenborough would be happy.

DYNAMIC SELECT now available across the whole compact range
Vlad Mitrache, August 4, 2015
Home Mercedes Benz A-Class DYNAMIC SELECT now available across the whole compact range
After the recent A-Class facelift, Mercedes-Benz wasted no time spreading the new added features of the sporty yet comfy hatchback across the rest of the compact range.
You don't have to read the numbers to know the broad Mercedes-Benz compact range is a success story – you don't even have to drive them, a simple glance is enough to realize they represent the perfect package for a lot of people. Compact yet roomy, sporty yet comfortable, the A-Class, CLA, CLA Shooting Brake, B-Class and GLA make an offer that's pretty hard to turn down.
But since numbers are pretty good at making a clear statement, here it is: during June alone, the Mercedes-Benz compact class sold 54,379 units, with 269527 units sold in the first half of the year – more by over a quarter (25.2%) than in the same timeframe last year.
DYNAMIC SELECT across the range
After the successful implementation on the new A-Class, the DYNAMIC SELECT and adaptive damping adjustment features are now available for the whole compact range, which means the selling numbers can only go up in the future.
The DYNAMIC SELECT allows the driver to adjust certain vehicle features in a matter of seconds at the touch of a button. The characteristics affected by the DYNAMIC SELECT are engine response, transmission and suspension settings, steering assistance and air conditioning.
The four driving modes "Comfort", "Sport", "Eco" and "Individual" can be conveniently selected using the switch in the upper control panel. For the GLA there is the additional "Off-road" driving mode. When used in conjunction with the new suspension with adaptive damping adjustment (available as an option for the whole compact range), the DYNAMIC SELECT allows for an even wider range of settings, the driver having the possibility of modifying damping characteristics using the same DYNAMIC CONTROL switch.
Without any direct link, the addition of the DYNAMIC SELECT option will also mark the transition to the new nomenclature for the Mercedes-Benz compact range, where the petrol models will still bear no supplement, the diesels will drop the CDI in favor of the lower-case "d", the electric powered vehicles will get a similarly lower-cased "e" while the natural gas variant will receive a "c".

With its mountains and wild rivers, Dalat City and its surrounding area is among the best places in Vietnam for adventures and sports activities. If you had enough of sandy beaches or busy streets, come to Dalat and enjoy the great diversity of adventurous outdoor activities.
There are many things to do in and around the city, such as hiking, biking, trekking, rappelling, cruising and simply enjoying the fresh air. For day hikes, you can wander out into the woods and guide yourself. But for higher level sports, it may be best to go with a tour provider.
Hiking up mountains, such as Lang Bian Mountain, takes you to a vantage point from where you have an overview of the wild highland ranges west of Dalat.
If hiking with a tour guide is not adventurous enough for you, try mountain biking, canyoning and whitewater rafting. The wild landscape of Dalat and its surrounding area is more than suitable to satisfy every agile tourist's thirst for adventure and physical strain. Phat Tire Ventures offers a variety of great tours into the bush.
If adventure for you means sightseeing from the back of a powerful motorcycle and cruising along winding mountain streets through a beautiful landscape, then drop by the Dalat branch of the Easy Rider Club. The customized tours on their heavy machines make the hearts of travel enthusiasts beat faster. To explore Dalat's surrounding scenery by car, line up a classic Citroen tour through Ana Mandara Villas Dalat.
Apart from going out, sightseeing and indulging in the delicious food of Vietnam's "flower city", there are other cool activities such as: Get a relaxing spa treatment at La Cochinchine Spa, Ride an elephant at Da Tien Elephant Rides, Play golf at Dalat Palace Golf Club or Sacom Golf Course, Get an introduction to Vietnamese cuisine in a cooking class, Visit a village of the Lat People, Check out the Elephant Falls of Dalat.

Seplat Remains in the Red but Its Debt Portfolio Is …
Section: In the news · July 3, 2017 · No comments | Tags: featured
Loss making Seplat Petroleum Development says it has successfully concluded a one year extension of its revolving credit facility ("RCF") until 31 December 2018.
The company reported a loss after tax of $19.1Million for the first quarter of 2017, but its lenders have a positive appraisal of its possibilities.
Africa's top homegrown E&P Firm says the current three year RCF was due to expire at the end of 2017. The facility now expires on 31 December 2018 and has been successfully amended to amortise the remaining outstanding principal balance of US$150 million in equal instalments over five quarters commencing Q4 2017. Overall, Seplat's aggregate indebtedness under its Term Loan and RCF has reduced by US$365 million from its peak in Q1 2015 of US$1 billion to the current balance at the end of June 2017 of US$635 million, which is a significant deleveraging of the balance sheet particularly in exceptionally difficult trading conditions over the past 18 months.
The amended facility has been provided by Citibank N.A. London Branch, Citibank Nigeria Limited, The Mauritius Commercial Bank Plc, Natixis, Nedbank Limited London Branch, Nomura International Plc, FirstRand Bank Limited acting through its Rand Merchant Bank Division, Stanbic IBTC Bank Plc, The Standard Bank of South Africa Limited and Standard Chartered Bank.
Roger Brown, Seplat's Chief Financial Officer, explains that the approval to extend "and strong demand within our core lending group, which saw around 30% over subscription, demonstrates Seplat's strong underlying business fundamentals and is further testament to the strength of our relationship with our continuing and new lenders".
The amended facility, and recent resumption of exports via the Forcados terminal, "will enable the business to rebuild cash on its balance sheet as we seek to strengthen our capital structure to ensure a strong platform for future growth", Brown adds.
