The Port Alberni Gymnastics Academy is a busy place this time of year.
The Port Alberni Gymnastics Academy is a busy place this time of year. The sport has experienced growth locally with more children and youth taking part in recreational and competitive classes.
The high school also has a student team that trains in the gym, a group that has made a come-back in the past few years.
Seven gymnasts from the ADSS team recently competed at the North Island Zone trials, hosted by PAGA. This trial determined the athletes who will move on to the provincial championships in Vancouver from March 10–13.
While some of the girls on the team have a long background in competitive gymnastics, others are new or have taken part in recreational classes.
"We start with the basic routines and they have an opportunity to compete in all four events," Moss said.
It has only been in the last three years that the high school has had an active team since the 1990s.
"We saw an interest, and had a sponsor teacher whose daughters are in gymnastics, so we were able to offer it for the high school girls," said Moss.
Moss said that because it is typically a sport that ends at a young age, this gives the teenagers a chance to return, get exercise and work around their schedules. Unlike club members, they have a shorter season and a less taxing time commitment.
Those heading to the BC Championships include Mikaela Pettigrew (1st place, Level 1 Sr.), Emily Yard (2nd place, Level 1 Sr.), Emily West (2nd place, Level 2), Jenna Thompson (3rd place, Level 2) and Abigail Anderson (1st place, Level 4).
Maya Giesbrecht received first place as a Level 1 Junior and Zoe Carroll came in second in the same category.
Competitive club members, who train up to 12 hours per week, attended the first meet in Comox on Feb. 6-7.
Currently the club has a membership of about 600 gymnasts of all ages. Flemming credits the increased interest to the affordability of gymnastics.
The 39th annual Invitational at PAGA will take place from March 19-20 and some local gymnasts will be vying for a spot at the BC Championships in Vancouver on April 15.

The KKR Global Institute (KGI) is an integral part of the KKR investment process — working in partnership with KKR deal teams, portfolio companies, and limited partners to help enable smarter investing through a better understanding of the world.
To accomplish its mission, KGI integrates expertise and analysis about emerging developments and long-term trends in geopolitics, macroeconomics, demographics, energy and natural resource markets, technology, and trade policy, as well as environmental, social, and government (ESG) considerations. Whether working with a KKR deal team as we explore entering a new market, supporting a KKR portfolio company as it expands its international footprint, or assessing which countries stand the best chance of becoming the next "breakout nations," KGI provides critical inputs as the firm thinks through where to invest and how to help businesses grow.
In order to identify and cultivate over-the-horizon opportunities while mitigating against risks, KGI draws from both a deep bench of in-house experience and knowledge, as well as a differentiated network of global contacts. Under General (Ret.) David Petraeus as Chairman and Vance Serchuk as Executive Director, KGI integrates the macroeconomic analyses of KKR's Global Macro and Asset Allocation Team led by Henry McVey and the Public Policy & Public Affairs, stakeholder engagement, and environmental, social, and governance work of KKR's Global Public Affairs Team led by Ken Mehlman.
In addition to supporting the KKR investment process, KGI serves as a platform for thought leadership, publishing analyses on a range of market-relevant developments and subjects, including Henry McVey's Global Insights and other publications.

Q: How to get the list of files in the WEBDAV directory with Flysystem? I found similar question on stackoverflow but noone answered there.
So I'am trying to get the list of files from the WEBDAV cloud storage using laravel-flysystem framework that is based on Flysystem. I did everything according to manual and everything is working perfectly except one function - listContents().
Here is an example of my code
var_dump(Flysystem::read('/test/test.txt'));
var_dump(Flysystem::listContents('/test/'));

This code returns the following:
string(4) "123"
array(0) {
}

I have test.txt file in the test/ directory and read() function return's it's content but listContents() function don't return the file.
Can someone please explain what can be done to get the list of files from the directory? Thanks.

A: So for now as a temporary solution I had to change the code in vendor. An awful decision but I don't plan to use composer in this project for the time and just for reinsurance I locked the version of league/flysystem in composer.json
So as a solution I went to vendor/league/flysystem/src/Util/ContentListingFormatter.php
(it exist in 1.0.57 version of league/flysystem for shure). In function isDirectChild() you need to return true; . This way you will get an array of actual files from your webdav directory instead of an empty array.
I really hope that this bug will be fixed someday.

An investment bank is a financial institution that assists individuals, corporations, and governments in raising financial capital by underwriting or acting as the client's agent in the issuance of securities. An investment bank may also assist companies involved in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and provide ancillary services such as market making, trading of derivatives and equity securities, and FICC services (fixed income instruments, currencies, and commodities).
Unlike commercial banks and retail banks, investment banks do not take deposits. From the passage of Glass–Steagall Act in 1933 until its repeal in 1999 by the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act, the United States maintained a separation between investment banking and commercial banks. Other industrialized countries, including G7 countries, have historically not maintained such a separation. As part of the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act of 2010), the Volcker Rule asserts full institutional separation of investment banking services from commercial banking.

The awaited 2023 has finally arrived and it comes with its own distinctive features particularly in the workplace. The trend of quiet hiring will dominate 2023 in the U.S.
According to Emily Rose McRae, an HR expert leading the research team at Gartner's future of work, quiet hiring is when an organization acquires new skills without actually new full time employees.
McRae further explains that this may involve hiring short term contractors or encouraging current employees to temporarily move into new roles within the organization.
What is observable right now is that although organizations are not laying workers off or doing a hiring freeze, they are massively pedaling slowly when it comes to hiring. This is the recent reality in especially in 2023 when there are clouds of uncertainties as to whether the country will go through a recession or not.
Employers must do what needs to be done to meet their financial goals no matter how tasking it may be and regardless of the hard decisions they have to make.
In recent years the global community has continued to experience talent shortage especially post-covid with the rising popularity of remote jobs. Employers are in a tight box because they need talents desperately but unfortunately the current set up makes the quest for finding quality unengaged talent quite difficult.
What exactly is responsible for the emergence and rising profile of quiet hiring?
Employers search for new talents for three main reasons: to address an immediate need/vacancy, backfilling old roles, and creating new roles which it considers crucial for the company's advancement.
Quiet hiring springs from the urgency to address an immediate vacancy or need and this may not necessarily mean the company is bringing in new talent. What happens is that organizations are pressed to fill a vacuum for the most crucial departments even if this means current employees have to take on new roles temporarily. This particular pattern may be summed up as internal quiet hiring since it happens within the organization.
This is however a double edged sword because while it may help employees get a better grasp of the operations of the organization where they work, it may also give them their ideas that their original roles may not be as relevant as they thought it was since they have been made to temporarily or permanently abandon their old responsibilities.
To prevent this occurrence, management must ensure that employees are intimated on the importance of the project or department were roles are being and how the growth and success of the company hinges on making such decisions. This can douse employee's tension and reassure them of the value they add to the organization.
There is also "external quiet hiring" where organizations due to shortage of mobile employees resort to hiring short term contractors to fill important roles. The key here is to prioritize and consider roles in the organization that cannot be unfilled.
How do you make the best of quiet hiring in 2023?
We all agree that if we love our current job and its description, getting transferred to a new role we are not at all accustomed to is highly undesirable. At the same time we don't want to sit back and employers business crumble because of shortage of workers. It is becoming clearer than ever many companies may crash in 2023 unless they resort to quiet hiring.
For business making quiet hiring a thing in 2023 will require a clear articulation of why it is important for the business, employer and employees alike because employees must fully understand why this needs to happen if it will be successfully implemented. Help your employees understand and see the reasons for quiet hiring. It is easy to get the best from an employee if they understand why decisions such as quiet hiring is needed in an organization but the absence of this communication will produce unmotivated workers.
For employees, the announcement of vacant new roles within the organization should be seen as an opportunity rather than a challenge. If you are interested in such roles, simply discuss your long term goals with the management as this may easily get you a promotion or a better deal at work. See it as an opportunity to present your aspirations and how assuming such a new role can help you grow your career.

Washington Liquor Store Insurance. Any establishment that sells spirits or any other type of alcoholic beverage needs liquor store insurance. Liquor store insurance is a policy that protect stores from any third party claim arising from an injury or accident brought about by someone who was intoxicated after consuming liquor brought from that store.
Package liquor stores sell many types of bottled and packaged alcoholic beverages, including wine and beer, for off-site consumption. Kegs of beer may be available. Sources can be domestic or imported.
Operations must be licensed for the items sold. Sales may be limited to liquor and alcohol only, or the store may also sell soft drinks, nonalcoholic mixers, snacks, lottery tickets, or gift items. Some items may be offered refrigerated for the convenience of customers. Package liquor stores are often open until the early hours of the morning. They may be privately owned, corporately owned, or owned and operated exclusively by the state government.
This type of insurance is not limited to providing coverage for liquor stores. It also applies to bars, taverns, and even restaurants that sell alcoholic beverages on a regular basis, as well as to event organizers, wedding coordinators and event managers. The Washington liquor store insurance policy also applies to individuals who are planning on holding a one-time event where alcoholic beverages will be served.
Washington liquor store insurance protects your shop from lawsuits with rates as low as $77/mo. Get a fast quote and your certificate of insurance now.
Insurance Is Required By Law: While states differ in how they enforce liquor regulations, most states require establishments that sell alcohol to have liquor insurance. The difference lies in how much the insurance policy costs. States that have pretty rigid laws and enforcement when it comes to liquor sales and consumption may also require policies have higher limits and can cost more. Other instances when this insurance is required by law would be if the proprietor has taken out a large business loan or if the liquor establishment is leasing space. Insurance in both cases may be required, even in states that do not legally mandate liquor store insurance.
WA Liquor Store Insurance Gives You Peace Of Mind: Knowing that any type of liability arising from your trade is covered by Washington liquor store insurance gives you the freedom to focus on growing your business. Any lawsuit or claim can be a huge distraction for any business owner. Having insurance assures you that your business won't bear the brunt of the consequences of any injury or damage that is caused by your customers that you have no control over. Knowing that you are covered from this type of liability can help you sleep better at night.
Helps Protect You From Unruly Patrons: Alcohol lowers inhibitions and alters a person's behavior. This is the reason why brawls and accidents are common in places where people go to consume alcoholic beverages. In cases like these, injuries to innocent bystanders and complaints from other customers imposes the liability on the establishment. In other cases, inebriated customers that need to be escorted out may try to sue the bouncers of the establishments especially if they think they were unjustly booted out or handled roughly.
Having a WA liquor store liability insurance policy that includes assault and battery coverage can protect the establishment from the effects of complaints like these. It is also wise to choose a policy that covers employees as patrons. This is because in most drinking establishments, employees may drink on the job, even if company policy forbids them from doing so. Including employees means that you can be covered for damages caused by or affecting employees.
Liquor Store Insurance Can Get You Better Premiums: Insurance companies that offer liquor insurance often hold trainings for policy holders and those who complete the training can become eligible for discounts on their premiums, or they may be eligible for a premium reduction. This can produce significant savings for any establishment especially if you are paying multiple premiums at a time.
Provides Coverage For Legal Fees And Costs: In the event the complaints eventually result to cases being filed in court, Washington liquor store insurance also offers coverage for defense fees and other court costs. Without insurance, legal fees can mount up and significantly affect the business. It is not uncommon for business establishments to eventually close down despite winning a case because they just couldn't handle all the resulting legal fees without insurance. Liquor liability can help cover court costs so your business can stay afloat during and after litigation.
Liquor liability exposures are from selling liquor to underage individuals and those already intoxicated as there should be no on-premises consumption of alcoholic beverages. Failure to comply with state and federal regulations can result in the loss of a liquor permit which will close the business. There must be a set procedure to check ages of anyone attempting to purchase alcohol. Employees must be trained to recognize signs of intoxication.
Premises liability exposure comes from slips and falls due to public access to the premises. All goods should be kept on easily reached shelves so that customers do not pull items down on themselves. Floor covering must be in good condition, with no frayed or worn spots on carpet and no cracks or holes in flooring. Steps and uneven floor surfaces should be prominently marked. During inclement weather, snow, mud, and water will be continually tracked into the store by customers.
Housekeeping should be excellent and spills must be cleaned up promptly, with warning signs posted after mopping. Sufficient exits must exist and be well marked, with backup lighting systems in case of power failure. Parking lots and sidewalks need to be in good repair, with snow and ice removed, and generally level and free of exposure to slip and falls. Customers can be injured or killed during a robbery.
Security of visitors in parking areas is rapidly becoming the responsibility of the owner or operator of the premises. Outdoor security and lighting must be consistent with the area. Personal injury exposures such as assault and battery or wrongful ejection can arise from refusing service to belligerent or intoxicated customers.
Products liability exposure for package stores is normally low, as long as reputable manufacturers make all liquor that is sold.
Workers compensation exposures are very high due to heavy lifting and robberies. Improper lifting can cause back injury, hernias, sprains, or strains. Floors may become slick, resulting in slips and falls. Anhydrous ammonia refrigerants are poisonous when leaked into confined spaces such as coolers. Controls must be in place to maintain, check, and prevent such injury. Cleaning staff can develop respiratory ailments or contact dermatitis from working with chemicals.
Employees should be provided with safety equipment, trained on proper handling techniques, and have conveying devices available to assist with heavy lifting. Injury or death during holdup is a major cause of loss. Employees should be trained to respond in a prescribed manner. Often, there are defensive tools available to the employees such as pepper spray, baseball bats, or guns.
Property exposures are moderate from electrical wiring, refrigeration units, and heating and air conditioning systems which can tax the electrical system. The wiring must be adequate and up to code. Due to its combustibility, an ammonia detection system should be in place if ammonia is used as a refrigerant. A fire can often cause a total loss because alcoholic beverages are highly flammable and susceptible to damage from heat and smoke. Even a small fire can cause all stock to be condemned due to contamination from smoke and firefighting materials.
Theft is a major exposure as alcoholic beverages can be expensive and are easily resold. Appropriate security measures should be in place, such as keeping more expensive items behind the counter and inaccessible to customers. Security mirrors should be prominently displayed throughout the store. Premises alarms should report to a central station or police department. A panic alarm for hold-ups is advisable.
Crime exposures from employee dishonesty and theft of money and securities are very high. The inventory is attractive to employees as they can steal it and resell it for personal profit. Background checks should be conducted on all employees. The inventory must be under the supervision of more than one individual so that there are checks and balances. All orders, billing, and disbursements must be handled as separate duties. Regular audits must be conducted.
If there is a 24-hour exposure or late night/early morning hours, package stores can be a target for holdup because of the significant cash on hand. Money should be regularly stripped from the cash drawers and moved to a safe away from the front of the store. Irregular drops are helpful in preventing a large buildup of cash. Closing time is the most vulnerable time so security procedures should be in place to prevent hold-ups.
Inland marine exposures can include accounts receivables from billings to customers, computers for tracking inventories and sales transactions, signs, and valuable papers and records for suppliers' information. Backup copies of all records, including computer records, should be made and stored off premises.
Commercial auto exposure may be limited to hired or nonownership liability exposures from employees using their vehicles to run errands. If delivery services are provided, only company vehicles should be used. Drivers must have appropriate licenses and acceptable MVRs. Vehicles should be properly maintained and records retained.
Liquor liability insurance is one of the most important types of insurance that a liquor store owner can buy. With this in place you can rest assured that your business is shielded from the financial repercussions of complaints, damages and injuries that arise from the actions of drunken patrons. Don't leave your store unshielded from potentially damaging claim.

Fast paced local co-op game where the players must share their weapon, "The Frisbee," and can only throw it at each other. It's cooperation or death in this high-intensity 2-player experience.
This is a prototype of a cooperative experience, where the players can only throw the frisbee to their partner - Essentially, the other player is your crosshair. It is a challenging risk-reward driven experience that tests how in tune each player is to their partner.
Designed main mechanical systems of catching/throwing to facilitate a cooperation-only experience.
Designed features such as the duo-power up and totem heads to add elements of risk-reward to the fast paced experience.
Designed and scripted a power-up feature that affects the frisbee's movement using simultaneous input from both players. If the players work against each other, the frisbee won't move, if they move in the same direction it moves much faster.
Designed a final boss that uses a form of the player's own frisbee against them.

My former Pastor told me years ago that all I had was a Mony, and if I didn't change I would never get to my Testimony. This may sound harsh, but it was true. Today I have a Testimony! So, I share this advice with you all. If all you are doing is whining, moaning, and complaining you will never come out of it. In order to move forward you have to DO SOMETHING! Give it to God…Yes! But what is your part? Is there a habit you need to let go of? Do you need to leave a toxic relationship? Do you need to seek new employment? Go back to school? Get counseling? Even when we have legitimate trauma, we have to make a decision to move forward.
One of the things I was facing back when my former Pastor told me this was the death of my first child. Many of you have legitimate losses too. Abuse, betrayals, death of a loved one, abandonment, taken advantage of, and loss of a job just to name a few. Get your healing, deliverance, counseling if you need it, read God's Word, and Pray. But the key is to MOVE forward. Move out of the trauma, hurt, and pain. If you choose to stay there you will be a victim your entire life. I am convinced some people like being a victim. They enjoy telling that same story over and over and the sympathy they receive. Especially when that sympathy is connected to resources and handouts.
Some people also like staying stuck in pain because they are comfortable in that place. Yes, as crazy as it sounds, pain can be comfortable. If someone has been telling that same sob story for 20 years and have been operating in that mode, it is comfortable for them. Anger too. Staying angry can be comfortable. The day could be filled with balloons, bubblegum, and unicorns, and an angry person will find something wrong. You can't please them.
It has to be your WILL to want to be delivered and set free. Do you want a Mony? Or do you want a Testimony? Now don't get me wrong, it is very hard to move past trauma and pain. Personally speaking it was hard for me. I think the difference for me was that I was never comfortable there. I didn't like being down and having a Mony. I hated it actually. I knew that I wanted a good life and it was torture for me to be stuck.
Let me add that there is nothing wrong with telling your story and expressing what you have been through. I don't want you to get the impression that you should never talk about what you have been through. For two good reasons. First, if you do not get it out, then that will also keep you stuck. There are people walking around in pain, because they have it trapped inside of them. Abuse they have never spoken of. Betrayal that they buried. Loss that is in their heart. You have to get it out to heal. It is like covering a bad wound. The wound has to breath to heal. If you keep it covered it will become infected and may spread over your entire body and poison your system. I see people in my work as a Social Worker everyday who are covered with internal wounds. Their insides are sick, and as a result they have a sick life.
Second, it is good to discuss your story to help others. When we share our testimony, it displays what God can do. It encourages people. It says if I can do it, you can do it. But notice I said share your "Testimony." That implies that you are sharing what you have been through and how you came out of it. In politics there is a concept called "framing." Framing is about HOW you tell your story. Do you tell it from the perspective of a woe-is-me Mony? Or as a triumphant Testimony? More importantly, it is about how you LIVE IT! How are you living? A Mony life, or a life of victory?!
Let me also acknowledge that your wounds may still be fresh. I am speaking as a person that is years out of the fire. When you are in the midst of going through a challenge, or just came out of one, that is a delicate state to be in. Your wound is still fresh. Take the time to go through the pain. That has its place too. But, the key is to not get stuck there! You can look up and it will be 10 years later and you will STILL be in that place. Chasing that same man or woman that has moved on, still talking about how that job did you wrong, still talking about how your family wasn't there for you…..still, still, still.
By year 10 to be completely honest, no one even cares anymore. Not that it isn't legitimate, but you wear people out by telling that same story. Bringing something up sometimes, and at an appropriate time, is different that repeating the same stories over and over consistently, and in a draining way. If you are not careful, you can connect your soul to a trauma, and you BECOME that thing. So, then you become a lifelong victim, and not a person who discusses their challenges effectively.
Lastly, another benefit of moving past the pain is to get to your blessing. That job may have treated you unfairly, but there is a great new job waiting for you. Your family may not have been there for you, but you can create your own family through marriage, children, church, social groups, and friends. That man or woman may have mistreated you, cheated on you, broke promises, and left you. But God has a new mate waiting that will love you and treat you right.
If you do not move past the Mony, you will never reach your Testimony and all of the amazing things that are waiting for you on the other side. I want to see you get to your blessings, your purpose, your Testimony.
This was right on time, very encouraging and needed at this moment in my life. I'm currently going through a "mony" working towards my "testimony"!
And you will get to your Testimony! I believe in you!
This is so very powerful!!!
As your big sister having walked with you during this journey. I could not be more proud of you!!!
Thank you! You have blessed me as well!
I Love It 😃, I always need a reminder to look Forward and keep on moving. I'm in my mony right now but, I know I'm moving towards my testimony. I'm so blessed that you're my friend. Your always moving forward and that motivates me to the fullest.
Thank you Lashell. You are right and for us that do learn from our past, it is a beautiful thing when we can reach back and help others!
Your life experiences and education have served you well. A continuous feedback loop of "poor me" is never helpful. When we are actors in our own lives, we are empowered.
Thank you Ms. Tindle. I am happy that you enjoyed it! Bless you!
You are a Queen! I absolutely love this !!
Thank you! From one Queen to another!
I loved your message! I need to share this with some people I know.
Thank you Beverly. Feel free to share!
Smart, smart, smart! I don't need to say more.
Oh, and I love your graphics.

For numerous reasons, considering investing in an edger for your practice is a smart idea. It sizes you up to optical retailers, is incredibly convenient for patients, and turns profit. This article will discuss how to seamlessly integrate an edger into your practice.


If you do not want that it knows that you are looking for work in another side, an answer to this type of announcements is a risk. A use opportunity, is certain, but with a company for which nobody wants to work. Perhaps one is a well-known company by his low wages and use bad practices to camouflage his identity as much as it is possible. It is suggested, however, to watch the announcements that are with great size (can be of until ua page, but generally they are of a quarter of page or less) than they put to the companies, with its name, and that indicate the vacancies. These announcements provide more details on the uses available, the requirements asked for to the candidate, and so on., who the normal size. If it is gotten to see an announcement for a work that corresponds to the position that you are looking for, he is advisable to make a pursuit. The sample is not cheap and if a company in particular is investing in them to announce its vacancies, it is there that every time he is more serious of hiring, of the convenience of sending the life leaf immediately. Attention is due to also render if the announcements disappear and reappear after one week or more.
Possibly this means that the employer not to hold the position during the initial launching or that the engaged person did not work. In any case, one is a good employer could be arranged a to reach an agreement on the requirements, wage and other aspects. Also they must be conscious of the small changes in the text of an announcement. It can give an idea than the employer has been lack in the received curriculum. The best way to make a pursuit of the classified announcements is to maintain the section of of every day (or each copy).


If you use an external water filter, your long hose connects to the filter and you need a short length of drink water hose to connect the filter to your caravan/motorhome water inlet.
This hose is the same high quality as our longer hoses, and takes up very little room. No need to keep on Multi-Reel, it's short enough to roll and store as you see in the product photo.

Afghanistan is reeling after 2 earthquakes in a week
By Elissa Nadworny
Afghans are grieving as they dig through the rubble caused by Wednesday's earthquake in the country's eastern region. More than 1,100 people died, and at least 1,500 are injured. The remoteness of the location, combined with a delayed response from the Taliban who have ruled the country since August, have complicated rescue efforts. Ali Latifi is a Kabul-based journalist and has been covering the rescue and recovery efforts on the ground. He joins us now from Kabul. Good morning.
ALI LATIFI, BYLINE: Good morning.
NADWORNY: We've seen gut-wrenching reports of people having to dig for their family members by hand. You were just in the affected provinces. What did you see? What have people been telling you?
LATIFI: The biggest issue in the immediate aftermath of the earthquakes was torrential rain. There was hail. There was fog and cloudy weather. So that meant helicopter flights were canceled. And at that point, the helicopter flights were really the only way to deliver aid and to take the injured in and out because these are very remote areas - mountainous, they're in the hills, it's unpaved roads full of, like, dirt and rocks. And so if it rains, it's mud, there are landslides, things like that. So that's what really made it worse was that in those most crucial initial hours, it was very difficult to get help to the people that needed it.
NADWORNY: It's been a few days since the quake struck. I'm wondering, are residents still finding survivors at this point?
LATIFI: They're still digging through the rubble because there were so many people. And you have to remember, these are mud houses in poor areas with big families - you know, seven people, 10 people, 15 people. But for the most part, the rescue effort ended about two days ago. And now the real focus is on the aid effort because, you know, you're talking about people that lost their homes.
NADWORNY: Yeah.
LATIFI: So that means, you know, their clothing, their cooking supplies, whatever they had for a livelihood, whether that be livestock or agriculture or anything. It's all affected. So now what everyone is really trying to do is figure out, what is it that these people need? You know, what is the best way to provide for them going forward until they can rebuild their homes?
NADWORNY: And the Taliban has been asking for help in this effort. What kind of international aid have you seen coming in?
LATIFI: So we were just in the Khost Airport yesterday. Khost was one of the provinces where the earthquake was particularly strong. And so we saw planes bringing supplies in from Iran, from Pakistan, from Qatar. We saw planes coming from the Emirates. And then also what's really interesting is that there's a real effort by average people in Afghanistan. Like, for instance, a few days ago, a team of doctors - a cardiologist and, like, dentists and, like, ear, nose and throat specialists and internists and midwives - they went to the regional hospital in Paktia province and asked them, what kind of medical help do you guys need so that we know that we can be of service?
And then other people - just groups of young people coming and going, you know, from different provinces. The owner of one of the biggest malls in Kabul - they're putting in the time and the effort and they're spending their money. And then you have Afghans abroad in Europe and the U.S. who are starting, like, GoFundMe campaigns. The biggest athlete, cricket superstar Rashid Khan - he started an online donation drive. And so that's what's really amazing about it is, yes, the international effort. But the actual people are also traveling to these districts and trying to see what they can do.
NADWORNY: That's journalist Ali Latifi. Thanks so much for taking the time to speak with us today.
LATIFI: Thank you.

This quote is just one of 228 total Ralph Waldo Emerson quotes in our collection. Ralph Waldo Emerson is known for saying 'Every sweet has its sour; every evil its good.' as well as some of the following quotes.


I visited the first Roka restaurant to open in London a few years ago and loved the food, so I was looking forward to dining there for the second time in their in the posh Mayfair.
Again we had to sit at the grill bar this time due to not getting a reservation. So i advise you get a reservation.
Its become a ritual, every time I visit London, I dine at Dishoom. Haven't tried their breakfast before, so I proposed we do that at their newly opened branch in Stable Street. The place id decorated different than the original in Covent Garden, I personally liked the interiors of the one in Upper St. Martin's Lane because it really looks like a vintage Bombay Cafe. The breakfast was awesome! Exactly like everyone said it would be. The Kejriwal, which are fried eggs on chili cheese toast was scrumptious, would love to go and have it again. The breakfast menu looked pleasing enough to have a go again next time I go London.


The projects in this publication are diverse in scale and design approach but all are inspiring at a number of levels. They have been drawn together and celebrated through the Timber Awards, established in 2012 to recognise the best use of timber and consider its contribution to the development of new architecture in Scotland.
Five years on and in reviewing the winners and shortlisted projects for the award it is patent that Scotland's best designers are fully exploiting the technical, aesthetic and tactile quality of timber, and that it allows them to do some of their best work and demonstrate their design and innovation skills.
The projects highlighted show just how versatile, characterful and, most importantly, sustainable timber is. It can be raw and robust, full of rural character as in the cladding of the projects by Rural Design, Icosis, A449 and Sean Douglas and Gavin Murray. It can be bespoke and perfect; creating interiors of cabinet-like precision as in Nord's GFT project. It can be used innovatively, structurally, and is easily prefabricated and constructed on constrained sites. It is wonderful at small as well as large scale, lending its unique tactile character and its inherent warmth to interiors as crafted as Maggie's Lanarkshire and the Arcadia Nursery. As LDN demonstrate at their Abbotsford building, timber can be used comprehensively from building structure to finishes and fittings, and when properly detailed and treated, it is inherently much more healthy than manmade materials.
All of the architects included in this publication have clearly enjoyed working with timber. They have recognised the pleasure of learning about, and the potential of exploiting, the myriad qualities of different timbers from homegrown larch, and Scottish hardwoods, to composite and engineered timber products. Timber not only provides a huge palette of architectural possibilities, but comes with the added joy of being fully renewable and recyclable.
The selection of a particular timber for a component of a building, and the detailing of it in construction, is important not only aesthetically and technically, but because it draws the designer into a particular relationship with the supplier of the timber and the craftsman or constructor who will work with the material. Again this can be at all scales and skill levels, indeed some architects set out with an express desire to make architecture from timber using unskilled hands, demonstrating just how forgiving, as well as how beautiful timber can be.
I would like to thank Forestry Commission Scotland and Wood for Good for their work and support for the awards as this is an important initiative that has become influential as well as celebratory. I hope this publication will inspire more designers to see just how much they can achieve architecturally using timber, and will highlight to them the potential to support the virtuous chain of using Scottish timber helping manufacturers and suppliers to diversify and develop. Finally I look forward to seeing the skilled and creative use of timber demonstrated here increase every year, and continue to flourish as, at the end of the day, it is my experience that above any other, a timber building is enjoyed and valued by its users – naturally.
Come along and pick up your free copy of the Best Use of Timber Awards: Celebrating Five Years of Scottish Timber Architecture.

It has become the defining image of China's Tiananmen Square protests in 1989 - one man standing in the way of a column of tanks, a day after hundreds, possibly thousands, had been shot dead.
But 30 years on, the Chinese authorities continue to try to erase all memory of the time when they almost lost their grip on power.
To test the effectiveness of the censorship, the BBC's John Sudworth took to the streets of Beijing to find out how many people recognise Tank Man today.

A cardinal's biretta rests on an empty chair. Credit:Alan Holdren/CNA.
Fort Worth, Texas, Jul 28, 2018 / 03:33 pm (CNA).- Former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick's alleged crimes might merit removing him from the clergy entirely—and they require accountability for all Church leaders who knew of his alleged misconduct and did nothing, Bishop Michael F. Olson of Fort Worth, Texas has said in a letter to the faithful of his diocese.
The Pope accepted Cardinal McCarrick's resignation from the College of Cardinals on Friday. The Pope directed McCarrick, the 88-year-old former Archbishop of Washington, to observe "a life of prayer and penance in seclusion" until the end of the canonical process against him.
"Justice also requires that all of those in Church leadership who knew of the former cardinal's alleged crimes and sexual misconduct and did nothing be held accountable for their refusal to act thereby enabling others to be hurt," the bishop continued.
Olson's letter said McCarrick's alleged crimes were "scandalous" and resulted in violation of trust and "grave damage" to the lives and health of his reputed victims.
"This scandal and pain are compounded by the horrific fact that reportedly one of his victims was his first baptism after his priestly ordination," he continued, noting that the claims also include crimes against his subordinates including priests, seminarians and lay Catholics.
"The evil effects of these actions were multiplied by the fact that financial settlements were arranged with victims without transparency or restrictions on the former cardinal's ministry," Bishop Olson said.
Cardinal Daniel DiNardo of Galveston-Houston, president of the U.S. bishops' conference, on Saturday morning thanked Pope Francis for "his leadership in taking this important step" of accepting the cardinal's resignation and ordering him to prayer and penitence.
"It reflects the priority the Holy Father places on the need for protection and care for all our people and the way failures in this area affect the life of the Church in the United States," Cardinal DiNardo said.
A letter sent this week to priests of the Archdiocese of Washington claims that its current archbishop, Cardinal Donald Wuerl, did not know until recently about settlements made by two New Jersey dioceses in response to allegations of misconduct on the part of former cardinal Theodore McCarrick. The letter was sent by archdiocese's vicar general Monsignor Charles Antonicelli.
Sources close to the Archdiocese of Washington have told CNA that Wuerl was not informed of settlements until June.
The two New Jersey legal settlements involving McCarrick were reached in 2005 and 2007 by the Diocese of Metuchen, the Archdiocese of Newark, and two men who claim they were sexually assaulted by McCarrick while they were seminarians and young priests.
McCarrick was Bishop of Metuchen from 1981-1986, Archbishop of Newark from 1986-2000, and Archbishop of Washington from 2000-2006.
In his letter, Bishop Olson stressed the Fort Worth diocese's "zero tolerance" for sexual abuse against minors and vulnerable adults perpetrated by clergy, staff and volunteers, "including me, as bishop." He said he has taken prompt action in response to credible allegations and added that the diocese has sought transparency in calling for victims to come forward, showing respect for protecting victims' identities.
"Our seminarians, priests, deacons, and religious and lay staff are taught to recognize and to report boundary violations without fear of retribution, no matter the status of the perpetrator," the bishop said.
Pope Francis named Olson to head the Fort Worth diocese in November 2013. He was ordained and installed as bishop in January 2014.
