Obama Mocks Anti-Refugee GOP: 'They're Worried About 3-Year-Old Orphans'
Ted Cruz fired back to the president, "I would encourage you, mister president, come back and insult me to my face"

President Obama criticized Republican presidential candidates Tuesday for stoking "hysteria" over Syrian refugees.
"We are not well-served when in response to a terrorist attack, we descend into fear and panic. We don't make good decisions if it's based on hysteria or an exaggeration of risk," Obama said at a press conference in Manila, Philippines.
In the wake of the attacks in Paris Friday, GOP presidential hopefuls have ratcheted up the rhetoric they use when speaking about Syrian refugees.
"We can't roll the dice with the safety of Americans and bring in people for whom there is an unacceptable risk that they could be jihadists coming here to kill Americans," Ted Cruz said Sunday. "We just saw in Paris what happens when a country allows ISIS terrorists to come in as refugees and the result can be a horrific loss of life."
GOP Politicians Rejecting Refugees Sound Like Racist Internet Trolls
Five of the Paris attackers were French citizens; one is of unknown origin, but he arrived in Europe via Greece, possibly posing as a Syrian refugee.
Since Friday's attacks, 30 Republican governors, including New Jersey's Chris Christie, have said Syrian refugees are not welcome in their states. Of the 31 total states now objecting to the idea of accepting refugees, 26 have already accepted them — including New Jersey which accepted seven Syrian refugees just last month.
Obama appeared to be referring to Christie directly Tuesday, saying, "When candidates say we should not admit 3-year-old orphans, that's political posturing."
The U.S., which has been conducting airstrikes in Syria since September 2014, has accepted fewer than 2,200 refugees from the country since the civil war broke out there in 2011. Obama agreed in September to accept 10,000 Syrian immigrants over the next year.
"When individuals say we should have religious tests, and only Christians, proven Christians, should be allowed, that's offensive and contrary to American values," Obama said Tuesday. "ISIL seeks to exploit the idea that there's war between Islam and the West, and when you start seeing individuals in position of responsibility suggesting Christians are more worthy of protection than Muslims are in a war-torn land that feeds the ISIL narrative. It's counterproductive. And it needs to stop."
Jeb Bush and Ted Cruz have both said the U.S. should prioritize assisting Christian refugees from Syria. "I think our focus ought to be on the Christians who have no place in Syria anymore. They're being beheaded, they're being executed by both sides, and I think we have a responsibility to help," Bush said on Meet the Press this weekend. The same day, at campaign stop in South Carolina, Cruz said there was "no meaningful risk" of Christians committing terrorist acts.
Obama finished his thought on Tuesday by referencing the GOP candidates' prior griping after the CNBC debate. "First they were worried the press was too tough on them in the debates, now they're worried about 3-year-old orphans. That doesn't sound very tough to me."
Ted Cruz, apparently smarting for a fight that might increase his poll numbers, was quick to respond, delivering a message to Obama via a gaggle of reporters Tuesday. "I would encourage you, mister president, come back and insult me to my face," Cruz said.

Q: Fixed nav bar is causing button within page not to work I want my navigation bar to be fixed at the top, but when I put the css coding in, all the other buttons on my page stop working.
This is my CSS
#header {
  position: fixed;
    left: 0;
    top: 0;
    bottom:200px;
    padding:inherit !important;
    width: 100%;
    z-index:9999;
}

I have tested it and the website works fine when I take this out.

A: I would assume that the since your layout is fixed and you are using the position properties and z-index that your #header is above everything else and putting an "invisible barrier" between where you click and the buttons underneath all buttons below 200px from the bottom of your screen should be clickable to see for yourself try adding a background color to see what is going on. Removing the top and left positions will help and if possible you might not even need to use the z index property depending on what you are trying to achieve.

Q: How does the compiler distinguish identical function argument names from class member names? I often see code examples where the constructor arguments have the same name as the class members. How does the compiler distinguish the function argument names from the class member names? Is this portable code? Is this bad practice?
Example:
class Box
{
public:
    Box(unsigned length, unsigned width, unsigned height)
        : length(length), width(width), height(height)
    {
        std::clog << length << std::endl;
        std::clog << width  << std::endl;
        std::clog << height << std::endl;
    }
private:
    unsigned length, width, height;
};

A: "How does the compiler distinguish the function argument names from the class member names?"
That's called shadowing. The parameters (function argument names) shadow the class member names. But there is a special rule for member initializer lists since you can only initialize members (and base classes), i.e. in
Box(unsigned length, unsigned width, unsigned height)
    : length(length), width(width), height(height)

the initialization
length(length)

initializes the member length with the parameter length.
"Is this portable code?"
Yes, the behavior well defined and specified.
"Is this bad practice?"
This is opinion based. I worked in teams where this was common practice and in teams where this was not allowed. Remember that this utilizes shadowing and some static code analyzers or compiler flags may disallow shadowing.


^^^ So this mask admittedly looks pretty gross in the container and on my MUG, for that matter, but gosh darn it is it effective!
With five nose piercings, my honker is a freaking battleground of blackheads that pop up like landmines around my studs. This isn't the biggest skin care problem one can have, and I realize that, but I know that they're there and it really bothers me. Not only does my skin care perfectionism cause me to lightweight freak out over blemishes, but I'd prefer for my pierced up nose to stay clean and clear to prevent irritation and infection.
We all know that charcoal is the "it" thing in the skin care world, especially when it comes to drawing blemishes out and giving your pores a deep clean. That's what made this mask an obvious choice for purchasing. After ONE USE of my TBS mask, there wasn't a single blackhead left on my nose. Saying that I was ecstatic about this is an extreme understatement. After countless cleansers and scrubs, I found something that literally eliminated the problem within ten minutes. Amazing much?
My favorite thing about this mask is its smell. I wouldn't go as far as to say that it smells minty, but when you unscrew the container lid you get an instant waft of brisk freshness. Kind of like opening a new pack of gum but without that overpowering peppermint aroma. This mask feels cool on your skin so that combined with such a crisp scent definitely makes for an invigorating experience.
Despite all of the above rave reviews, there are some things that I dislike about this mask. For one, you really have to be careful about washing this mask off quickly. If you go over the ten minute limit even just slightly, the hydration in your skin seems to slip away in double time, leaving your skin feeling brittle and looking flushed. Not fun.
And, for pettiness' sake, this mask is a big fat pain in the BOOTASH to clean up. I prefer to wash my masks off in the shower and the chunks of charcoal in the mask simply REFUSE to go down the drain. As soon as I shut the water off, there is face mask residue coating my tub, so you have to use a towel to wipe it all off. God forbid you just leave it there (Which I've totes done before – #lazygirlproblems), because the mask will dry and it will be a vicious cycle of the mask getting wet and then drying every time you shower. SMH.
Although there are some annoyances with this mask, I do recommend it for those looking for an effective charcoal product. My skin always seems to thank me for using it (If I'm quick enough to wash it off!) and saying bye-bye to blackheads is a blessing in itself!
Omg i have been wanting to try out these masks for sooo long but i need to stop buying masks!!! LOL. But i think i will soon!!!
Yasss this one is really nice! don't bother with the amazonian acai though, it wasn't very good/effective!
Great pictures Queen! I am going to have to step my skincare game up because I see what you are doing is working and has you glowing. Blessings.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — A strain of the potentially deadly antibiotic-resistant bacterium known as MRSA has jumped from food animals to humans, according to a new study led by the Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen).
The study published today in the online journal mBio focuses on MRSA CC398, a strain of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The study suggests that MRSA CC398 probably started as a non-resistant (antibiotic-susceptible) strain in humans before it spread to food animals where it subsequently became resistant to several antibiotics.
Whole genome sequencing, a cutting-edge testing method in which billions of molecules of DNA are spelled out in exquisite detail, enabled the scientists to trace the likely history of MRSA CC398.
Researchers at 20 institutes joined forces to study 89 genomes from humans and animals spanning 19 countries and four continents.
The study's international team of scientists found that the jump of Staph from humans to food animals was followed by the bacterium becoming resistant; first to tetracycline, and then later to methicillin — two important antibiotics for treating Staph infections.
MRSA CC398 is often referred to as "pig-MRSA" or "livestock-associated MRSA" because it most often infects people with direct exposure to swine and other food animals.
"Our results strongly suggest that food animals-associated MRSA CC398 originated in humans as MSSA (methicillin-susceptible S. aureus)," the report concludes. Once in animals, the microbe became resistant to tetracycline and methicillin, likely as a result of the routine antibiotic use that characterizes modern food-animal production, the study said.
Dr. Lance Price, the study's lead author and Director of the TGen's Center for Food Microbiology and Environmental Health, said, "Our findings underscore the potential public health risks of widespread antibiotic use in food animal production. Staph thrives in crowded and unsanitary conditions. Add antibiotics to that environment and you're going to create a public health problem.
Dr. Paul Keim, one of the study's authors and Director of TGen's Pathogen Genomics Division, said the study describes evolution in action: "The most powerful force in evolution is 'selection.' And, in this case, humans have supplied a strong force through the excessive use of antibiotic drugs in farm animal production.
"We can't blame nature or the germs. It is our inappropriate use of antibiotics that is now coming back to haunt us. The good news is that this study clearly shows the way to change evolution and remove this and other similar threats to our health," said Dr. Keim, who also is a Regents Professor of Biology at Northern Arizona University, and Director of NAU's Center for Microbial Genetics and Genomics.
Dr. Frank M. Aarestrup, Head of the Microbial Genomics and Antimicrobial Resistance unit at the Technical University of Denmark, said the study provided valuable information about the origins and future risks of this MRSA strain.
"Given its rapid emergence and trajectory of increasing importance in humans, the evolutionary history of MRSA CC398 has relevance for the epidemiology of MRSA and global health," said Dr. Aarestrup, who also is head of both the World Health Organization's Collaborating Centre for Antimicrobial Resistance among Foodborne Pathogens and of the European Union (EU) Reference Laboratory for Antimicrobial Resistance.
Dr. Robert Skov, M.D., the study's Senior Microbiologist and a member of the Department of Microbiological Surveillance and Research at the Statens Serum Institut in Copenhagen, Denmark, said more studies are needed to further assess the risks.
"Further analyses are required to estimate the number of independent genetic events leading to the methicillin-resistant sub lineages, but the diversity of the (MRSA) subtypes is suggestive of strong and diverse antimicrobial selection associated with food-animal production," Dr. Skov said.

14 Which is older Navy or Marines?
How old will the Marine Corps be in 2020?
November 10, 2020 will mark the 245th birthday of the United States Marine Corps. Dating back to 1775, just eight months prior to the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the Second Continental Congress established the Continental Marines.
What birthday is it for the Marine Corp?
It is on 10 November of every year that our Nation, our Corps, and our Marines pay tribute to all the Marine Corps Birthday symbolizes. Listen to the Marine Corps birthday cadence, 10 November, and feel the heartbeat of a legacy nearly two and a half centuries long.
Is the Marine Corps the oldest service?
Samuel Nicholas was commissioned a Captain of Marines on 28 November 1775, a month before the first officer of the Continental Navy was commissioned. Indeed, the Marine Corps' claim to being the oldest integral force in being results primarily from fortunate circumstances.
Have the US Marines ever lost a battle?
Marines have never surrendered. Biggest myth ever. Civilian contractors are marched off to captivity after the Japanese captured Wake, 23 December 1941. U.S. Marines are (and should be) proud of their battlefield heroics, from battling Barbary pirates to fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Who is the oldest military branch?
Army. As the oldest branch of the U.S. Military, the Army protects the security of the United States and its resources.
Do you wish happy birthday Marines?
For the rest of your life, the first term people use to describe you will be 'Marine. '" On 10 November, regardless of where Marines are stationed, or deployed, whether they are still on Active Duty, Reserve, or a former Marine, you will always hear "Happy Birthday, Marine."
Who is the first female Marine?
Officially, Opha May Johnson is credited as the first woman Marine. Johnson enrolled for service on August 13, 1918; during that year some 300 women first entered the Marine Corps to take over stateside clerical duties from battle-ready Marines who were needed overseas.
You might be interested: Is Marine Corps Marathon A Boston Qualifier?
Did Marines fight in ww1?
The achievements of the 4th Marine Brigade on the battlefields of Europe, as one of the two infantry brigades of the Second Division, US Army, comprised the major effort of the Marine Corps in Europe during World War I.
Why is a Marine not a soldier?
Why is a Marine not a soldier? A Marine is not a soldier because of a semantic decision made by the US military, similar to how a member of the Navy is a sailor or an airman in the Air Force. Marines are distinguished by their esprit de corps, traditions, specialized training, and mission.
Who is better Marine or Navy SEAL?
U.S. Navy SEALs are an elite unit, more exclusive and harder to be admitted to than the U.S. Marines. "SEAL" is derived from their capacity to operate at SEa, in the Air, and on Land – but it's their ability to work underwater that separates SEALs from most other military units in the world.
Which is older Navy or Marines?
The Marine Corps has had precedence over the Navy since 1921 because the Marine Corps has been very consistent in citing its origins as the legislation of the Continental Congress that established the Continental Marines on 10 November 1775.

Ditch the Tech: Potential Dollhouse ARG for the Hiatus
November 10, 2009 / Michael Andersen / 11 Comments
In its second season on air, Joss Whedon's Dollhouse has reportedly been averaging fewer than 3 million viewers per episode. In light of these figures, Fox decided to put the show on hiatus until December 4th, after November sweeps. Undeterred, Whedon posted the following commentary on Whedonesque:
"Howzabout that schedule? Well, I'm not as depressed as everyone else. We weren't about to rock sweeps anyway, and though there's a chilly November, December is CRAZY. It's like an Advent calendar of episodes! We get November to try to spread the word (which I'll be leaning on Fox to do, though it's hard to imagine them doing as good a job as the WhyIWatch guy) and then December is pure gluttony. Plus the episodes line up extremely well in these pairs, and we'll have an absurdly appropriate lead-in."
It appears as though people desperate for more Dollhouse content will not be forced to wait until the show returns from its hiatus December 4th. Yesterday, Dollhouse fans noticed a new website for Rossum Corporation, the organization responsible for Dollhouses around the world. In addition to advertising an attractive 5-year paid internship for "candidates of superior genetic disposition," Rossum Corporation provides details about its ongoing Senate investigation. Even the website's Terms & Conditions strives to establish its authenticity, noting that "all agents shall remain the property of the Company at all times."
Digging a little deeper, fans who called Rossum's phone number received a short phone message instructing them to "ditch the tech," leading to DitchtheTech.com. The website includes a video alongside a message from the future world of 2019 depicted in the episode Epitaph One. The website's source code notes, "[c]ivilization will fall apart in the year 2019. The Rossum Corporation is responsible. It is already beginning at the L.A. Dollhouse right now. Don't let them wipe the future!" The source code also provides a reference to WipetheFuture.com, indicating there may be more to discover soon.
While Fox never aired Epitaph One, the show's 13th episode, its dystopic look into the show's future provided some of the show's most compelling moments. By returning to the show's future plotline over the coming weeks, Joss Whedon's hopes of using November to spread the word about the show might turn the show's November hiatus into a blessing in disguise.
Last February, February, 20th Century FOX Television and the Fox Broadcasting Company partnered with The company P to produce Dollplay, an interactive participation drama exploring the show's mindwipe technology through interactions with a girl named Hazel.

There's a few more strands to this – check out @SENDanielPerrin and @RossumCo on Twitter, it's been bumbling around online since before the season began, seems to be ramping up now.

I'm looking forward to seeing where this one goes. Epitaph One was amazing. Very cool!
Already this game is working, as my husband {after hearing the game} suggested i pop in my DVD for him to finally start watching. 🙂
Jonathan Waite
And the FOX goes ahead and cancels the show. Shameful. This was one of the bright spots on television and it will be missed. I wonder if a show like thus could be produced and distributed solely through a service like iTunes, avoiding the networks altogether.
Griffin Farley
I created a group on Facebook called 'DitchtheTech' if you care to join me in the organization against The Rossum Corporation.
Anna Lawrence
Never mind fighting the Rossum Corporation: where do we go to fight Fox?
I agree with Jonathan Waite…I'd like to see Dollhouse continue to be produced and distributed through a service like iTunes.
Tony Elka
"Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog" demonstrated that high quality work can be produced outside of the traditional studio system. Nobody should understand this better than Joss Whedon, his talented siblings and the exquisite Maurissa Tancharoen.
How about giving "Dollhouse" fans the opportunity to purchase the DVD's of yet to be produced episodes in advance, and then use the proceeds to fund production? Three million viewers per episode is only a small number to the small minded.
Think outside the sleep chamber!

Filipino cuisine in the U.S. has been on a roll, and it's flavors pair well with Mexican creations, as seen at Meat on the Street, in a downtown Milwaukee food court.
Who doesn't love a good taco?
People love them so much that they make them their own: Tacos were widely anglicized midcentury with hard shells to hold the meat, and with lettuce, tomato and cheddar sprinkled on top (looking at you, Taco Bell). Ten years ago or so, tacos were fused with Korean flavors by chef Roy Choi in Los Angeles, to great acclaim.
In Milwaukee, chef Mitch Ciohon's Taco Moto truck has been winning accolades for creative combinations, such as grilled chicken thighs, feta and pickled peppers. The latest brilliant taco development comes from Meat on the Street, which started as a Filipino food truck in 2014 and now has a stand in a tucked-away food court on downtown's western edge.
There, in the Eleven25 apartment building across from the new Milwaukee Brewing site on North Ninth Street, Meat on the Street serves 11 kinds of Filipino-taco mashups on Tuesdays, and a burrito daily.
People are drawn to the cuisine's complex flavors — often tang from vinegar or citrus, plus some funk and subtle sweetness. But Alfaro has noted in the past that people unfamiliar with Filipino cooking are cautious when it comes to trying it. The tacos really are an ideal introduction, a low-commitment way for non-Filipinos to dip into the flavors (the tacos are mostly $2.50 apiece).
It's not exactly far-fetched to combine Filipino and Mexican fare; the Mexican dish adobado is thought to have influenced what might be the Philippines' best-known dish, the stew-like adobo (the common link between the two countries being then-occupier Spain).
So, not far-fetched but a very good idea. Meat on the Street's Tuesday menu lists carnivore, vegetarian and even brunch tacos that are served all day, and there's plenty of deliciousness in there.
Citrus makes everything it touches taste, oh, 90% better, and that's clear when you bite into the Mexipino taco, loaded with beef that's flavored with calamansi, the citrus grown and widely used in the Philippines. Calamansi is also in the aioli that dresses the taco; it's topped with onion and crumbles of cotija cheese besides.
The same calamansi beef is in the Tacomansi, but this taco is topped with fennel slaw, nice for both the crunch and added bright flavor. The fennel slaw also brightens up the Porky Squeals taco, made with pork cooked slowly with pineapple juice and spiked with the vinegar sauce called sawsawan.
Crisp, fried noodles are the attention-getter in the Crunchy Noods taco, but the heart of it is chicken adobo, topped with slaw. Tacos like that one are flavorful but not spicy; for a little heat, try the Spicy Tof, fried tofu and tossed in spicy marinade and nestled in spicy slaw.
The tacos are served at lunch and dinner only on Tuesdays, but the griddled Filipino burrito mashup, the adoboritto ($8), is available every day Meat on the Street is open. It's stuffed with shredded pork adobo and garlic rice, plus Chihuahua cheese, onions simmered in adobo seasonings, red bell pepper and calamansi-sriracha mayonnaise. More varieties of the adoboritto will be coming soon, echoing the flavors of the tacos, Alfaro said.
That burrito ought to tide you over until you can get to Meat on the Street on a Tuesday, but so would a couple of other excellent dishes (must-haves, really): the sour soup called sinigang, with pork, cabbage and tomato ($8), or binakol, chicken and straw mushrooms in a coconut milk-tomato broth, brightened with ginger and served with rice. Each is a bowl of pure comfort this winter.


Great-grandma (75) prepares to take to the skies!
Anne White (75) from Well, Alford.
A 75-year-old great grandma has shocked her friends and family - as she prepares to undertake her very first sky dive tomorrow (Thursday).
Anne White, 75, who lives in the village of Well near Alford, will leap from a plane at 15,000 feet in order to raise money for the Thanlyin Orphanage in Yangong, Burma (Myanmar).
I've always wanted to do it and - since it's a special birthday year - I thought I'd go for it.
The Buddhist monastery helps over 500 orphan children from the area, and Anne has supported the cause since she visited the monastery by chance on a guided tour seven years ago.
Alongside her husband Malcolm, Anne has hosted 'Melodies by the Lake' at their home every year since then to raise money for the orphanage and other good causes, but the couple will no longer be hosting the event.
Instead, Anne decided to do something a little bit different with the sky dive, which is something she has always wanted to do.
Anne, who has eight grandchildren and one great-grandchild, said: "Everyone has been saying I'm mad. Even my own family think I am!
Anne will be going out to Yangong again in January, and she hopes that her sky dive will raise hundreds of pounds for the orphanage.
An online fundraising page, run by Anne's daughter, has raised around £400 at the time of going to press, and further donations have been received by the Alford & Mablethorpe Rotary Club and other friends and supporters.

SSAFA stories >
Darren Pipe
After receiving a helping hand from SSAFA, RAF Sergeant Darren has embarked on an incredible fundraising journey, raising both awareness of our work, as well as thousands of pounds.
Ten marathons (including London), two ultras, one long distance triathlon, six half marathons, five 100-mile bike rides and a parachute jump; that's what one SSAFA fundraiser is taking on this year, after the charity helped his family.
When Darren Pipe ('Pipey') got moved to RAF Wittering in 2018, he was worried his wife and young children would struggle without him. SSAFA helped to relocate them so they could be together.
"18 months ago, I was moved, but it wasn't classed as a posting, so the RAF didn't move my family too. My wife is American, and she doesn't know many people in the UK. At the time she was at university and our children were one and three years old.
"SSAFA secured the funds to help us move together. It was massive for me. If SSAFA hadn't been there, I'd have been on my own every night, five nights a week, 75 miles away, knowing that my wife would be struggling. The move has made life a lot easier for both of us and it's great I can watch my children grow up. I've got a daughter from a previous relationship and I did so many tours overseas I missed that with her, and it is painful.
"It cost £1,700 to move my family, so my aim was to try and raise £1,700 in 3 years to give back. I did that in just 63 days and now I have the bug I can't stop.
"I've been in the RAF for 19 years. I have three years left of my career and want to spend every spare moment raising money for SSAFA to say thank you for what they have done for me. For us."
This year, Pipey has devised the 'SSAFA 2020 Challenge' where he will take on a series of epic physical trials to raise funds.
"It's going to be a difficult year with lots ahead. It's not just the training and fitness, it's the fundraising too, so I will be busy. It's going to be a long year, but it's going to be a great year.
"I'm looking forward to it, the London marathon especially, my wife will be doing her first marathon on the same day so we'll do that together, I've asked her to wear a SSAFA vest as well, so SSAFA will be well advertised!
"She is the one who signed me up to do the parachute jump, even though I'm afraid of heights!"
Pipey has a longline of family who served in the Forces, and he joined the Army at 16 years old. He soon decided (after half a day) that the Army life wasn't for him, and instead he joined the RAF. He's served on five tours of Iraq, seven tours of Afghanistan and tours in Oman, Kuwait, Belize and Kenya. He has been posted around the UK in Leeming, Honington, Leuchars and Wittering. He wants British Forces across the world to know SSAFA has their back.
"In all honesty, I didn't really know a lot about SSAFA. I went looking for help at the RAF welfare services, they then sat me with the Padre, and he took me to see SSAFA. They were so easy to talk to and said they could fix things for me easily and of course they would help.
"Because I didn't know a lot about SSAFA back then, I push now to make sure everyone understands what they do.
"Now SSAFA is everything to me. They look after people in the services and family members from the minute they join. They are part of the military family.
"Thank you SSAFA – for past, present and for future. Just thank you."

TTSL to raise Rs 10,000 cr to clean up its balance sheet
The shares will eventually be converted into equity shares at a fair market value determined on the date of conversion. Devina Sengupta&Satish John | ETTelecom | February 13, 2017, 07:45 IST
Covering more than 4 kms, the deployment of Wi-Fi hotspot would ensure seamless connectivity in the inner and outer circles of the area.
Tata Teleservices plans to raise Rs 10,000 crore in an effort to clean up its balance sheet, which could help the financially-stricken telco be part of the consolidation drive that the industry is going through in an extremely competitive climate. The unlisted telecom company, controlled by Tata Sons and other operating companies in the group, obtained shareholders' consent in a meeting held on Friday to double its authorised capital to Rs 40,000 crore from Rs 20,000 crore and raise up to `10,000 crore through compulsorily convertible preference shares (CCPSs), on a rights basis.
Both Tata Sons and Tata Teleservices did not respond to ET's query till the time of going to press.
The shares will eventually be converted into equity shares at a fair market value determined on the date of conversion. The option to convert will accrue within three months of the allotment of CCPS, but not later than three years from the date of allotment. Senior tele com analysts said infusing money into the company is one of the options available with TTSL, which has about ` . 30,000 crore as debt on its books.
Telecom firms in India are infusing fresh capital to stay ahead in the game.This January, Mukesh Ambani-owned Reliance Jio decided to invest an additional ` 30,000 crore to power its digital expansion and expand its network coverage and capacity. Last year, Vodafone Group, too, had pumped in nearly ` 50,0000 crore in its India unit. "This way (raising capital), at least, they will create more value and keep their options open for either being acquired or merged. Vodafone's talks with TTSL did not work out; Aircel and RCom have their own pact; Idea-Vodafone merger talks are in discussion stage," said a senior telecom analyst from one of the big Four consulting firms who did not wish to be named.
Another senior partner in a consulting firm who tracks the telecom sector said the Tatas need to invest more money to grow their business. "Even a firm like Idea Cellular has posted losses, and Tata Teleservices is buffeted by headwinds, apart from its challenge to pare debt," he said on the condition of anonymity .
New Tata Sons chairman N Chadrasekaran will have quite a few issues to deal with, including the biggest challenge of steering the struggling Tata Teleservices to safety, and settling its differences with its Japanese partner NTT Docomo. A reversal of fortunes for Tata Teleservices and change in the telecom landscape of the country had prompted Docomo to seek an exit. When Docomo had purchased its stake in Tata Tele in 2009 for about `12,740 crore, the two companies had agreed that it would get at least half its investment back if the Japanese company exited within five years. But the Reserve Bank of India ruled out the option, saying payment for Docomo's stake would have to be made at a fair market value.
The imbroglio then took a legal turn, with Docomo filing for international arbitration and winning an award of $1.17 billion, and has since moved a local court to implement the award. The Tatas too deposited about `8,000 crore in an escrow account.

text:
Ein Unfall ist ein plötzliches, zeitlich und örtlich bestimmbares und von außen einwirkendes Ereignis, bei dem eine natürliche Person unfreiwillig einen Körperschaden (bis hin zum Tod) erleidet (Personenschaden) oder eine Sache unbeabsichtigt beschädigt wird (Sachschaden).

Allgemeines
Die häufigsten Unfallereignisse für Körperschäden sind Stürze, Verkehrsunfälle, Haushaltsunfälle, Sportunfälle und Verbrennungen sowie penetrierende Verletzungen (in erster Linie Stich- und Schnittverletzungen) und Stromunfälle. Unfallursache ist in den meisten Fällen menschliches Versagen oder menschliche Fehlhandlung. Weitere Unfallereignisse für Körperschäden sind unter anderem Maschinenunfälle, Bauunfälle (unterschieden in Hochbau-Unfälle und Tiefbau-Unfälle), Bergbauunfälle, Gebirgsunfälle, Hochseeunfälle, Wasserunfälle, Stromunfälle (Elektrounfälle), Brandunfälle, Druckluftunfälle (etwa beim Tauchgang) und Strahlenunfälle.

Während das deutsche Versicherungsvertragsgesetz (VVG) bei der Sachversicherung auf eine Definition verzichtet, wird der Unfall im Rahmen einer (Personen-)Unfallversicherung in  Abs. 2 Satz 2 VVG wie folgt definiert: "Ein Unfall liegt vor, wenn die versicherte Person durch ein plötzlich von außen auf ihren Körper wirkendes Ereignis unfreiwillig eine Gesundheitsschädigung erleidet." Im Rahmen der Sachversicherung wird der Unfallbegriff von den Versicherern in ihren Allgemeinen Versicherungsbedingungen definiert. Dabei kommt es auch zu Abweichungen in den Formulierungen, die eine unterschiedliche Reichweite des Versicherungsschutzes zur Folge haben können.

Abgrenzungen beim Personenschaden
Die Abgrenzung leichter Unfälle zur Verletzung ist nicht eindeutig. Der deutsche Versicherungsverband spricht auch von Unfall, wenn durch eine erhöhte Kraftanstrengung an Gliedmaßen oder Wirbelsäule ein Gelenk verrenkt wird oder Muskeln, Sehnen, Bänder oder Kapseln gezerrt oder zerrissen werden. In Abgrenzung zur Krankheit wirkt bei einem Unfall das den Körper schädigende Ereignis nur zeitlich begrenzt ein. Im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch wird auch von einem Unfall gesprochen, wenn kein Personenschaden vorliegt. Eine Sache kann keinen Unfall erleiden, sondern allenfalls bei einem Unfall beschädigt werden.

Einem Unfall liegt eine Unfallursache zugrunde, namentlich höhere Gewalt, technisches oder menschliches Versagen. Nach den Musterbedingungen der privaten Unfallversicherungen liegt ein Unfall vor, wenn die versicherte Person durch ein plötzlich von außen auf den Körper wirkendes Ereignis (Unfallereignis) unfreiwillig eine Gesundheitsschädigung erleidet. Dies schließt nach der Rechtsprechung zum Teil auch Fälle aus, in denen Eigenbewegungen des Versicherten ursächlich für die Verletzung sind (beispielsweise erhöhte Kraftanstrengung bei sportlichen Aktivitäten). Die Unfallforschung hat zum Ziel, Ablauf und Ursache eines Unfalles zu rekonstruieren. Neben versicherungsrechtlichen Aspekten sollen hieraus Erkenntnisse gewonnen werden, die zur Erarbeitung von Vorschriften und Ansätzen zur Unfallverhütung dienen können. Auf die medizinische Behandlung spezialisiert sind die Unfallchirurgie und das Unfallkrankenhaus, auf die rechtliche und finanzielle Abwicklung die Unfallversicherung.

Ein Unterlassen (beispielsweise ist ein verschneiter Gehweg nicht geräumt) kann die Wahrscheinlichkeit eines Unfalls (Unfallrate) erhöhen. Jedoch kann das Unterlassen nicht als Unfallursache bezeichnet werden, denn möglicherweise wäre ein Passant auch dann gestürzt, wenn der Verkehrssicherungspflichtige den Winterdienst wie vorgeschrieben durchgeführt hätte (siehe dazu Kausalität).

Schweiz
Als Unfall gilt die .

Abgrenzungen beim Sachschaden
Der Unfall mit Sachschaden grenzt sich von einem Betriebsschaden ab, bei dem die Schadensursache nicht von außen, sondern allein auf Grund eines inneren Vorgangs eingetreten ist. Relevant ist diese Abgrenzung für die Eintrittspflicht der Kaskoversicherungen, die grundsätzlich nur Unfallschäden regulieren. Ein Betriebsschaden liegt vor, wenn ein zum Fahrzeug oder zur Maschine gehörendes Bauteil einen Folgeschaden an dem Fahrzeug oder der Maschine verursacht. Nicht versichert sind damit allein durch das Fahrzeug oder die Maschine selbst verursachte Schäden. Auch Schäden, die durch eine allgemeine Abnutzung entstehen, sind keine Unfälle. Ihnen mangelt es am Kriterium Plötzlichkeit, auch wenn das unmittelbare Versagen der Maschine aufgrund der Abnutzung plötzlich auftaucht. Abnutzungen sind für den Versicherten kalkulierbar und deshalb kein besonderes Risiko. Für einen Unfall spricht eine plötzliche Kollision mit einem fremden, nicht zum Fahrzeug oder zur Maschine gehörenden Teil. Die Falschbetankung eines Fahrzeugs und ein daraus resultierender Motorschaden wird als Betriebsschaden gewertet. Die Wahl eines falschen Kraftstoffs ist mit dem Einbau eines ungeeigneten Ersatzteils zu vergleichen und damit ein innerer Betriebsvorgang.

Neben Betriebsschäden, die durch einen inneren Betriebsvorgang entstehen, werden auch Schäden aufgrund von Bedienungsfehlern oder Überbeanspruchung ohne Einwirkung von außen vom Unfall abgegrenzt. Bedienungsfehler liegen damit vor, wenn der Schaden allein durch die Bedienung des Fahrers entstanden ist. Dabei dürfen Bedienungsfehler mit mittlerem oder geringerem Fahrlässigkeitsgrad nicht zum Ausschluss der Eintrittspflicht der Versicherung führen, da ohne enge Auslegung des Begriffs Bedienungsfehler kaum noch ein Anwendungsbereich für die Vollkaskoversicherung verbliebe. Dies korrespondiert mit § 81 Versicherungsvertragsgesetz, nach dem nur Vorsatz und grobe Fahrlässigkeit zum Leistungsausschluss für die Versicherung führen. Ist der Bedienungsfehler Ursache für einen folgenden Unfall, liegt kein Leistungsausschluss vor. Entscheidend sind die Kriterien Plötzlichkeit und Unvorhersehbarkeit, auch bei Eigenverschulden, solange keine grobe Fahrlässigkeit vorliegt.

Unfallarten

Die Unfallart beschreibt im Allgemeinen den Ort des Unfallgeschehens oder die vorher ausgeübte Tätigkeit näher.

Beispielsweise ist ein Arbeitsunfall ein Unfall, den ein Versicherter bei einer Tätigkeit aufgrund eines Arbeits-, Dienst- oder Ausbildungsverhältnisses oder einer anderen versicherten Tätigkeit erleidet und der zu einem Gesundheitsschaden oder zum Tod führt. Der Begriff "Arbeitsunfall" umfasst innerbetriebliche Arbeitsunfälle (z. B. bei Tätigkeiten in Produktion und Verwaltung), außerbetriebliche Arbeitsunfälle (etwa bei Montagetätigkeiten und auf Dienstwegen) und Wegeunfälle (auf dem Weg nach und von dem Ort der Tätigkeit).

Weitere unterscheidende Begriffe zur Kennzeichnung der Unfallart sind Haushaltsunfall, Wildunfall, Schulwegunfall, Sportunfall, Bergunfall (Alpinismus), Jagdunfall – diese sind meist Einzelunfälle. Zumeist Großschadenslagen mit mehreren Verletzten und Betroffenen sind Bahnunfall, Flugunfall, Gefahrgutunfall, Grubenunglück (Bergbau), Unfälle im Schienenverkehr (Schienenfahrzeugunfälle).

Beim Straßenverkehrsunfall kann die Unfallart speziell den Unfallablauf im Sinn von Kollision oder Abkommen von der Fahrbahn beschreiben, wofür in Deutschland zehn Unfallarten (1 bis 10) näher definiert wurden. Bei diesem kann es sich um einen Einzelunfall mit wenigen Beteiligten handeln, aber auch um eine Großschadenslage.

Erstmaßnahmen bei einem Unfall
Nach Auftreten eines Unfalls werden allgemeine Erstmaßnahmen empfohlen, die auch von Laien durchgeführt werden sollten, oftmals aber unterbleiben. Als solche gelten u. a.:

 Sicherung der Unfallstelle, wobei Eigensicherung vor Hilfeleistung geht
 Erste-Hilfe-Maßnahmen
 Alarmierung der Rettungskräfte und Freimachen eines Rettungsweges mit Einweisen der eintreffenden Rettungskräfte.

Arbeitsschutz
Der Standard ISO 45001 fordert von zertifizierten Unternehmen die Identifizierung von Gefährdungen und anhand dieser die Bewertung von Arbeits- und Gesundheitsschutzrisiken. Die Identifizierung von Gefährdungen muss dabei "Vorfälle" berücksichtigen, die die Gesundheit und Sicherheit der in Betrieben Beschäftigten gefährden können. Ein Vorfall ist in dem Standard definiert als . Der Fokus des OHSAS 18001:1999 lag dagegen noch vorwiegend auf Unfällen im Sinn des technischen Arbeitsschutzes, was dazu führen konnte, dass beispielsweise lang anhaltende psychische Fehlbelastung, die zu psychischen Erkrankungen führten oder hätten führen können, weder systematisch erfasst noch untersucht wurden.

Häufigkeit
Die WHO geht von jährlich weltweit 1,2 Millionen tödlichen Unfällen aus (2003). Es wird prognostiziert, dass Verletzungen ab 2020 zur weltweit häufigsten Todesursache werden und damit übertragbare Krankheiten ablösen. In der Altersgruppe der Erwachsenen unter 45 Jahren sind Unfälle in der industrialisierten Welt bereits die häufigste Todesursache. In den USA starben Anfang der neunzehnhundertachtziger Jahre jährlich bis zu 150.000 Menschen an den Folgen eines Unfalls, weitere 400.000 blieben permanent behindert. Die jährlichen Kosten wurden auf 469 Milliarden Euro summiert.

In Deutschland erlitten im Jahre 2004 8,5 Millionen Menschen einen Unfall, das sind über 10 % der Bevölkerung. Diese Häufigkeit blieb über die Jahre konstant. Eine stationäre Krankenhausbehandlung war 2000 bei 17 % der Verunfallten notwendig, mit einer mittleren Aufenthaltsdauer von 10 Tagen. Im Jahr 2000 starben 19.715 Menschen an den Folgen eines Unfalls (1,2 % aller Unfallverletzten), was 2,4 % aller Todesfälle entspricht. Durch Unfälle wurden fast 57 Millionen Tage Arbeitsunfähigkeit ausgelöst (13 % aller Arbeitsunfähigkeitstage). Daraus errechnet sich ein Produktionsausfall von 5,2 Milliarden Euro jährlich in Deutschland, entsprechend 0,2 % des Bruttonationaleinkommens.

Nach Angaben der Gesundheitsbefragung GEDA wurden 8 % der Befragten im Jahr 2010 aufgrund einer Unfallverletzung ärztlich behandelt. Für Männer besteht ein höheres Risiko zu verunfallen. Betrachtet man die Orte, an denen Menschen einen Unfall erleiden, wird am häufigsten von einem Unfall zu Hause oder in der Freizeit berichtet.

Is Daisy Ridley secretly gay and hiding in the closet?
It's been a rough year for the actress, but at least she has her millions of dollars to ease the pain. 28-year-old Daisy Ridley has taken the No. 1 spot on People With Money's top 10 highest-paid actresses for 2021 with an estimated $82 million in combined earnings.
Daisy Ridley tops annual list of highest-paid actresses
In 2018 it looked like the actress's spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Monday (January 18) that Ridley is the highest-paid actress in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between December 2019 and December 2020, a nearly $50 million lead over her closest competition.
People With Money's factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The English actress has an estimated net worth of $245 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the "Fat Ridley Burger" chain) in London, a Football Team (the "London Angels"), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderidley - England), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Daisy) and a fashion line called "Daisy Ridley Seduction".
The ranking is significant for many Daisy fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.

Anyone got a decent current pic of me I can use for http://ageproject.specialsnowflake.com ?
You can upload them, but none of them are really clear shots of me.
I'll see what I can extract from the full versions. I emailed you very shrunken email-sized versions.
Send me the big ones please, my lovely.
As for you, wechsler, I think the pictures from Lyme Regis (etc.) that I took of you are quite handsome. Are you looking for something in the last month or so?
Of course, there's no particular reason whythis one won't do.

9-1-1 call touches off massive search in South Jersey; man found asleep
Farmhand found asleep hours later in Winslow Township blueberry farm bunkhouse
By Kevin C. Shelly
Police Search
Source/Google Maps
Officers were called to the Matro Family Farm in Winslow Township after a 911 call on Wednesday night, township police said.
A 9-1-1 call to police from an intoxicated farmhand at a South Jersey blueberry farm touched off a huge hours-long police response Wednesday night into Thursday.
Following the search, which included a K-9 and a state police helicopter, Agripino Lopez, 60, was found asleep in a bunkhouse at the Matro Family Farm at 407 Spring Road in Winslow Township , a township police supervisor told PhillyVoice Thursday morning. Police said he was intoxicated.
Lopez had made the 911 call on a cellphone, reporting he had been injured and "was in a field bleeding from the head," according to a township release.
Lopez made the call at about 10:50 p.m. and said he was unsure of his exact location.
A search for him went on until at least 12:20 a.m.

Bloody clothing was found at the site of the initial cell call. A state Forest Fire Service K-9 tracked Lopez for a time after the bloody clothing was found.
The SouthSTAR helicopter unsuccessfully swept the area before having to leave because it was low on fuel.
A command center was set up which included Camden County Central Communications, the Winslow Township Fire Department, New Jersey Forest Fire Service, Virtua Paramedics, Winslow Township EMS, and the New Jersey State Police helicopter.
Areas of the property where Lopez was known to hang out were checked without finding him.
He was eventually discovered sleeping in the farm's bunkhouse.
Lopez had a minor laceration to his head, according to police. He denied having been assaulted and refused medical treatment.

Smart Breakfast: Winner Takes All?
Cyber Security is a growing concern and priority for businesses, large and small, the world over. Cyber attacks, data breaches, privacy issues – it's a complex and fast-evolving field that requires expert advice and support.
It's equally as important for individuals – identity theft, scams and fraudulent behaviour can wreak havoc in our daily lives.
Cyber abuse is also on the rise, and a real threat for many women from a domestic violence perspective.
And the prospect of being "trolled" for any woman who puts herself "out there" and has a voice on social media is extremely high and often enough to stop women sharing their opinions and expertise online.
As a relatively new field of expertise, it's ripe with opportunity from a career perspective. There aren't many women in the sector, and less in the top jobs.
We were therefore delighted to host Jacqui McNamara, Head of Cyber Security Services at Telstra, as our guest speaker at SmartWomen Connect in September 2018.
Jacqui is smart (of course), straight-talking and passionate about the industry, and also about encouraging more women to enter the industry and progress in their careers.
And as a trailblazer in the area she's got a few good stories to share and wisdom to impart that's relevant to ALL women working in corporate.
Members and guests enjoyed a light lunch and networking, followed by a straight-shooting, intimate conversation and Q+A with Jacqui facilitated by our Founder, Fiona Craig.
We talked about the importance of cyber security, and what you can do to keep yourself safe online. Jacqui also shared her advice for women looking to progress in any male dominated industry.
We were delighted to be hosted once again by one of our key supporters, Lander & Rogers.
Jacqui McNamara has worked in the cyber security field for more than two decades. She is currently the Head of Cyber Security, Telstra, and has previously run startups in the security sector and managed large businesses for IBM, HP and Dimension Data.
She is a passionate supporter of diversity and women in the industry and is Chairwoman of Females in IT and Telecommunications, Australia's largest and longest running body for women in the industry. She also co-chairs Telstra's Enterprise Gender diversity council. Jacqui speaks regularly on cyber security and risk as well as diversity and inclusion. She is a former intelligence officer with the ADF. She enjoys the opportunity to challenge assumptions and norms around the role of women and other minorities in the industry and across the board.
