Ireland's Ambassador to New Zealand, Peter Ryan, Peter Burke, and Damien O'Connor the Minister of Agriculture
Launched in Style
True To Ireland is now a reality. It was officially launched at the Thistle Inn – Wellington's oldest pub and a watering hole for the Sons of Eire by Irelands Ambassador to New Zealand, Peter Ryan and Damien O'Connor the Minister of Agriculture.
About 120 people with Irish links and friends of the author attended the launch and craic. Many were the sons and daughters of the 155 Irishmen who faced deportation because they would not fight for Britain. It was a grand night – live music provided by Kevin Ikin, Pat Higgins and Kevin McLoughlin – good food and drink and a great atmosphere... read more

The celebrations continued after the launch
As part of the celebrations of the publication of True to Ireland a number of events, apart from the launch, were held. These included a talk by myself, Fr Eamon, Geraldene O'Reilly and Lynette Wharfe at the National Library on Thursday 14 March. A total of 74 people attended this lunchtime talk and a further 20 joined me on a walking tour of the some of the places that were special to the Irishmen. This included Parliament Buildings, the Waterloo Hotel and the AMP building where their appeals were heard... read more
Beyond the launch
Since the major launch in March in Wellington there has been no lull in activities. True to Ireland is available at most retail book outlets in New Zealand and also on line. Sales are going well. The book has raised the awareness of people's Irish connections and I have had nearly 50 emails from New Zealand and overseas asking for more information or telling me that a relative of theirs appears in my book. This is great and I am more than happy to help people tell their stories about their family and friends. Maybe that will make a book in its own right.
Launching in Ireland
We hope to finalise details of launch events in Ireland soon. Keep September free! Expect events in Dublin and Moycullen and other towns and cities.

There are two kinds of people in this world. Those who prefer to read fiction and those who perfer nonfiction.
Some of us naturally prefer reading fiction (me) while others naturally prefer nonfiction (husband, eldest daughter). For those that are naturally inclined to nonfiction, they will read voraciously in that genre without needing much encouragement.
What kind of reader are you? What about your kids?
It's good for us, kids included, to read outside our preferred genre.
Get books with great photographs.
Seriously. If the book has photographs – not drawings – it's so much more engaging to readers! Plus, a book with borders, different colors or backgrounds appeal to young readers.
Watch text to picture ratio.
If there is a ton of text crammed into a page, it's not appealing to read. Look for books with not too many words all crammed together. Look for text boxes and blank space on the page. That's less intimidating and way more exciting to read.
Pick something your child is interested in.
I only read non-fiction books in which I'm interested. I just cannot motivate to read the history books my husband enjoys. Same for your kids, right?
Start with that and let me know how it goes! Have fun – and remember, reading non-fiction is good for us adults, too!
Great post. I am actually both a fiction and a nonfiction reader. I do tend to gravitate more towards NF though just from my desire to learn and my insatiable curiosity. However, I have been challenging myself to read more fiction this year and have found there can be things to learn from fiction, too, especially historical fiction (if you know what is fact and what is story).
I like the reminder that nonfiction books do not need to be read cover to cover! We can pick and choose, browse, study, etc., unlike fiction! Thank you!
Why don't we do a survey?
I would agree that to say that this is a gender divide is a bit of an overgeneralization (though there are certainly tendencies in that direction). Me, I've always been all about fiction – the bigger and more complex the story, the better. But I do appreciate the tips!
Thanks for posting your experiences, Janelle and Terry.
John, I disagree that it's separation of the sexes — that is overgeneralizing. I know a large number of grown men who read graphic fiction novels and women who only read non-fiction.
Lasonya, thank you for your kind words.
Susan, as always, you're such a thoughtful reader, thank you.
We are fortunate to have such a nice literacy community here! Thanks, everyone who has commented so far.
My brother and I were definitely opposites when it came to reading as children. He preferred non-fiction and especially enjoyed reading informational magazines like Popular Science and car magazines. He devoured my parent's Family Health book and learned all about strange diseases. I spent all of my time reading fiction…although some of the historical fiction I read was based on true events and could almost pass for non-fict.
It's one of the differences between the sexes.
Men will happily read an instruction manual about internal combustion engines while women will prefer a story about relationships.
Research with juvenile monkeys shows that the males will choose to play with a toy car and the females with a dolly. Ignore this at your peril!
Great point about what I call "the white space" aspect of a book. Wonderful nonfiction for kids has interesting snippets that add to the main feature, in text boxes as you said or woven onto the page in interesting ways. Readers who are daunted by dense text in say a middle grade chapter book might be much more inclined to try a nonfiction book or magazine.
The more pictures the better! You are so right about that. My daughter loves to get the "anatomy" books in her school library. She is more interested in looking at the pictures than having us tell her what the text says.

What is this, 1994? Praise be that we have the Original Nintendo Classic and Super Nintendo Classic, why not bring out an N64 Classic as well? Sure enough, it may just be coming very soon which should come as no surprise. At least, I'd speculate that Nintendo would announce it with E3 coming up. And I'd wager they'll fly off the shelves faster than the first 2 'classic' systems did. For me, this is one I would most certainly buy, since I passed on the first two.
Via JapaneseNintendo, this roughly translated piece indicates a trademark registration from Nintendo for N64 in Japan. While this information alone isn't much to go off of, Nintendo isn't anything if not predictable. They did the same thing just before announcing the Super Nintendo Classic, filing a trademark for the same name weeks prior.
One problem foreseeable is that this guy makes his own home brew systems using Raspberry Pi, emulators, custom cases and more. His version allows to play more than 900 games with frickin' Bluetooth controllers! I'm sure Nintendo loves that a fan is doing that, since they have a problem with even people playing their games on YouTube in general.
Seeing as the original Nintendo Classic and Super Nintendo Classic were not replete with a large library of games to play, can the N64 classic really live up to the expectation, with custom mods and emulators available that will most certainly outperform it? I mean, if they have the original Tony Hawk Pro Skater, I highly doubt it will come with the original music selection. You know, licensing and all.
I really don't care, I'll still buy one despite other options. It's that damn Nintendo appeal, I guess.
What about you geeks? Will you buy a N64 Classic when the eventual announcement is made? Tell us in the comments!


My family plays marbles. Not the "sit around a circle flicking marbles at eachother" 1950s marbles. This game is more like the game "Sorry," and my family has played it for as long as I can remember. It originated from my dad's side, with my Grandma Betty. Every visit would always involve a slew of marble games that would feature a variety of things: My grandma punching whoever was closest to her for knocking her marble off, holding a lighter under her die to put it in the "hot seat" if it didn't roll a 1 or a 6, someone getting pinch bruises, and my grandma yelling, "You're getting my Irish up!!!" My best memories of my grandma are always somehow tied to marbles.
The game involves each of 4 players having 4 marbles. You team up with the person opposite the board from you. You must roll a 1 or a 6 to get a marble out of your start point, and keep rolling. You must get all of your marbles around the board and into your home row, and then you can roll and play for your partner. First team with each player's 4 marbles home wins. If you land on another marble, you can send them home. Marbles has fierce suspicions…some people have "lucky" dice, and will only play with them. If your die start "listening" to another player's chants, it's time to get new dice. For that matter, if you "chant" numbers at another person's dice (to avoid them getting the number you want), sometimes it works. No one else should touch your dice, or they'll start "listening" to them. Unspoken rule: "First one out, last one home." The fun part: your win is NEVER guaranteed. Just because you think you're winning, the game could change it all and give the other team the advantage. Our family gets LOUD with it. We play wild, we yell, we laugh, we get aggressive. It's fun.
The first marble board I remember at my Grandma Betty's house was very plain. Apparently my grandpa had made it, and they'd had it forever. It had years worth of marble playing on it, and it was awesome. Several years ago, my father made a few plain ones to keep back home. I don't remember if he asked me, or if I sort of took over, but I painted some as gifts–an ornate garden one for my mother, a maze with trompe l'oeil butterflies for me, a lizard one for my sister, and an Egyptian one for my dad. The idea was to make each corner (for each player) be a strong, cool character that each person would want to play.
Since then, not only have we spread marbles around to friends we've known (who always fall in love with the game), but I've made several as gifts over the years. I have a Harry Potter one for my husband, and a Monty Python one for myself. The one at the beginning of this post was for a friend as a reminder of our time in Alaska.
Yep…and once you're in, your in!!! What is seen can never be unseen. Heehee!
I am VERY impressed! Beautiful work! Must have taken quite a bit of time. Did you use Polyurethane? Spray on? Wonderful wonderful job.
Yes, they're spray varnished with Kamar varnish afterward, Sometimes painted with gloss varnish. Thankyou very much!

The best part about the Braids performance at Comfort Zone was the stimulated conversations overheard on the fringes of the crowd.
It was there where I was restricted for most of the show. From the soundboard onward was an impressive gathering of unmoving people, an impenetrable mass that had been summoned to merely chill. In the black light alcove were discussions on the nature vs. nurture of man's personality, the implications of the news of NSA wiretappings and a curious lamenting of the change in the band's sound.
"They're usually more psychedelic," said Jeff – an NXNE concert hopper, "I was excited to see them most, but I think they're missing something." His friends nodded in agreement, and took possession of the Comfort Zone's pool table.
To those outsiders, Taylor Smith, Austin Tufts and Raphaelle Standell-Preston put on a bland and uninspired presentation.
A ceiling mounted projector-displaying colour and animated polygonal patterns lit the stage. But it wasn't enough to make up for the unintelligible vocals and repetitive techno-tribal beats that droned on and on. Each song was dull and unremarkable, a surprising contrast considering the interesting ambience and range they've captured in their acclaimed studio works.
Ultimately, Braids' live show failed to penetrate the stoic wall that was the Toronto crowd. Their set couldn't induce the trances their persona is known for.
In the end I left the show feeling disenchanted with the band, harbouring a sense of regret for not joining that pool game when I had the chance.

Hamilton de Holanda is a bandolim player from Brazil. He reminds me of the bluegrass virtuosos I grew up listening to. Like Bela Fleck, Mark O'Conner, Edgar Meyer, or Jerry Douglas, his playing is technically perfect and emotionally rich at the same time. Incidentally, I've found putting "Hamilton de Holanda" into Pandora gives me a fun and relaxing mix of Brazilian Music!

Temple, Donmar Warehouse, 2015
July 22, 2015 · by relhayman	· in Culture, Theatre.	·
In October 2011, a group known as Occupy London camped outside St Paul's Cathedral in protest against capitalism. Sparking outcry, the Dean of St. Paul's announced the decision to close the cathedral for four days, the first time since the Blitz – thrusting the Church, rather than the City, into an uncomfortable spotlight. Dramatising the church's dilemma between whether to support the peaceful protestors or have them forcibly evicted, this new play by Steve Waters, Temple, imagines how events unravelled behind the closed doors of St. Paul's, and explores the challenges facing the church in the 21st century.
The play opens on the morning of October 28th, the day that the cathedral is set to re-open. The dilemma, which has reached a crunch point, is embodied by the central character of the dean (Simon Russell Beale), who is unsure how to proceed. The canon chancellor (Paul Higgins) has already resigned in sympathy to the protestors; the bishop (Malcolm Sinclair) still urges for reconciliation with them; the indifferent verger (Anna Calder Marshall) is merely concerned that the building isn't ready to be up and running again. Slowly ceding to pressure from the City of London to have the protest cleared, however, we follow the dean's journey from internal anguish to a final enlightenment.
This very precise historical event might not seem a natural subject for the theatre, but Waters manages to carve it into an interesting drama. The play does not attempt to be didactic; it simply probes the world of the church with an intellectual and philosophical curiosity. It investigates the relationship between the church and the corporate, how Christians should act and behave in the 21st century. It reminds us of the shifting symbolic power of St. Paul's across the centuries – the dean reminds us that the church has been there for 1400 years 'before capitalism itself' – and the changing forces that affect religion.
Of course, it's all very interesting if you're passionate about the matters of the church – but if you're not, all that's objectively left to admire is Simon Russell Beale's fine performance as the dean. His portrayal of the real-life figure who found himself demonised by the public for the closure of the cathedral is ultimately a sympathetic one. Initially hard-edged and defiant, he ends the play teary-eyed and pensive: realising himself in an irrational situation with no rational way out, he grows into a graceful tragic hero, announcing his inevitable resignation with a sense of spiritual illumination.
Not all of the supporting cast strike the same note of believability. Shereen Martin oozes caricature in her slick, ruthless manoeuvres as the City lawyer trying to win over the dean's support. Rebecca Humphries' role as the dean's PA also proves dubious light relief: a scatterbrain on her first day at work, she suddenly gains favour with the dean as an authoritative confidant on all matters ecclesiastical. However, Malcolm Sinclair's media-savvy bishop and Anna Calder-Marshall's stern virger work well in their more minor roles.
The production is classy, Simon Russell Beale is on top form, but while the writing is undoubtedly intelligent, the play's appeal is a little too niche in places. You might leave the Donmar Warehouse enriched by the historical and religious matters at hand, but the drama, though well-packaged, is at worst ambivalent – somehow it all fails to excite.

Pientka, a Special Agent in the FBI's Russia division, interviewed former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn in early 2017 with Strzok at the White House.
So far, the FBI has not granted the committee's permission to subpoena Pientka, who was the only other FBI agent to interview Flynn. According to former FBI Director James Comey, neither Pientka or Strzok believed Flynn was lying during their interview with him. However, Flynn still pled guilty to one count of lying to the FBI after Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office spent months questioning him. Sources close to Flynn told this news outlet that Flynn was strong-armed by Mueller's office who threatened to go after his family and mounting legal bills led to his decision.

The Weldable Reinforcing bar, also commonly known as rebar, is a steel bar that is used widely in the construction industry, especially for concrete reinforcement. Steel reinforcing bar is mostly used as a tensioning devise to reinforce concrete and other masonry structures to help hold the concrete in a compressed state. Concrete is a material that is very strong in compression, but almost without strength in tension. In order to mitigate the weakness of the concrete's inherent properties, reinforcement bar is cast into the concrete to sustain the tensile forces.

The institution—the red tape machine—does not salvage anything per say. It is thanks to the work of idiosyncratic personalities that many documents are preserved. This chapter sheds light on the contributions of Michel Deligne, a secondhand bookstore owner and publisher who once illustrated the best way to cultural preservation: sharing. It further presents the continuation of Deligne's archival practice through the gallery-magazine La Crypte Tonique, which seeks to actively recirculate forgotten segments of comics history.

In patients with uncontrolled arterial hypertension platelets and coagulation factor XI are responsible of modifications of thrombin generation.
Objective: Hypertensive crisis is an extreme phenotype of increased blood pressure that can lead to organ failure and thrombotic complications. We recently found in experimental hypertension an angiotensin II driven factor XI (FXI)-thrombin amplification loop leading to vascular injury. We wanted to evaluate, in patients with uncontrolled hypertension (HT), the role of platelet and factor XI in thrombin generation (TG).
Methods: Prospectively, 52 patients with uncontrolled HT (16 grade I and 36 grade II/III) were examined at the outpatient clinic and emergency room of the University Medical Center Mainz, and 16 controls. Calibrated automated thrombography (CAT) was used to measure TG in platelet rich plasma (PRP, adjusted to 150.109/L of platelets), platelet free plasma (PFP), with platelets from controls and uncontrolled HT patients resupsended in a pool of healthy controls and in the presence or absence of an antibody blocking FXI activation pathway.
Results: We found an increased systolic blood pressure in HT patients, compared to control patients (179±1.9 mmHg for grade II/III patients, 139±1.2 mmHg for grade I patients and 123±2.5 mmHg for controls); age, BMI as well as weight were not different. TG in PRP showed a positive and significant correlation between blood pressure and the other TG parameters as Endogenous thrombin potential (ETP), peak TG and velocity of TG. ETP was significantly increased in grade II/III patients compared to the control group. TG parameters in HT patients and controls were completely blunted by the inhibition of FXI pathway by blocking its apple 3 domain. This result indicates an involvement of the FXI thrombin loop in thrombin generation in PRP of uncontrolled HT patients. Without platelets TG showed no difference between HT patients and controls. Platelets resuspended from HT or controls restored the differences in ETP, peak and velocity between the 2 groups indicating that increased TG in HT patient mostly depends on platelet overreactivity.
Conclusion: These results point out the important role of platelet overreactivity as well as FXI-dependent thrombin activation pathway in hypertension. Monitoring the prothrombotic state of platelets might add to risk stratification of patients with HT.

Home Depot (HD), the world's biggest home improvement retailer, reported better-than-expected sales and earnings Tuesday morning on the back of an extra week of sales and a revival of sales in the States, partly related to destruction in the wake of Superstorm Sandy that pummeled the eastern seaboard of the U.S. late in October.
Meanwhile, the company boosted its dividend, announced a new share repurchase plan, but joined an ever-growing list of companies, including rival Lowe's Companies, Inc. (LOW), in providing a cautious guidance going forward.
For the quarter, Home Depot reported sales of $18.2 billion, a 13.9 percent increase from the year prior quarter's $16.0 billion. Fiscal 2012 consisted of 14 weeks (versus 13 weeks in fiscal Q4 2011), accounting for a $1.2 billion increase in sales. Less the extra week, sales grew by 6.3 percent year-over-year. Gross profit increased 13.7 percent to $6.4 billion. Net earnings for the quarter mushroomed to $1.0 billion, or 68 cents per share, from $774 million, or 50 cents per share, in the same quarter of 2011. Excluding a benefit of 1 cent per share related to the closing of a China store, earnings were 67 cents per share.
Wall Street was expecting the company to report EPS of 64 cents on revenue of $17.7 billion.
"We ended the year with a strong performance as our business benefited from a continued recovery in the housing market coupled with sales related to repairs in the areas impacted by Hurricane Sandy," said Frank Blake, chairman and chief executive at Home Depot.
For the full fiscal year 2012 (ended February 3, 2013), sales were $74.8 billion, up 6.2 percent from $70.4 billion in fiscal 2011. Adjusted earnings per share for the 2012 year, which excluded effects of store closings in China, were $3.10, versus $2.47 in fiscal 2011.
For the year, same-store-sales increased 4.6 worldwide and 4.9 percent in the United States. During the fourth quarter, sales at comparable stores increased by 7.1 percent in the States. From a quarterly perspective and on a percentage basis, same-store-sales growth at Home Depot has outstripped Lowe's for nearly four consecutive years now.
Across those 15 quarters, shares of HD have appreciated by about 210 percent, while LOW shares have increased about 106 percent.
Home Depot raised its quarterly dividend by 34 percent to 39 cents per share and approved a $17 billion stock buy-back program that replaces its previous plan.
Looking ahead, Home Depot said that it expects to earnings per share growth of approximately 12 percent to $3.37 for all of fiscal 2013 after anticipated share repurchases. The company foresees sales increases of about 2 percent for the year, implying revenue of $76.2 billion.
The revenue estimate was roughly in line with analyst predictions, but the EPS was light of the $3.50 expected.
Shares of Home Depot closed trading on Monday down by 2.5 percent at $63.92 and are ahead by 40 percent in the past 52 weeks.

THE INTERVIEW WAS GREAT. One of my favorites!!!!!!!
Victor reiterated many of the things he wrote in his article detailing the WoF invasion and explosion in INDIA. You will here stories of Rhema Bible Training Center BUYING THEIR WAY into India to hold the people hostage to their SEED FAITH LIE. You will here stories of coerced false testimonies of healing and that made Christianity as a while look bad there. Great healing crusades that done noting but harm and fleece.

FCA Announces Creation of Global Financial Innovation Network
FCA has, in collaboration with 11 financial regulators and related organizations announced the creation of the Global Financial Innovation Network (GFIN), building on its proposal earlier this year to create a global sandbox. The group also launched a consultation on the role the GFIN should play in delivering its objectives, including the tools it will use. The consultation closes on October 14, 2018.
As part of the consultation, the group is seeking views on the mission statement for GFIN, its proposed functions, and where it should prioritize activity. The group encourages innovative financial services firms, financial services regulators, technology companies, technology providers, trade bodies, accelerators, academia, consumer groups, and other stakeholders that are keen on being part of the development of the GFIN to respond to the questions in the paper. The consultation sets out the three main functions of the GFIN:
Act as a network of regulators to collaborate and share experience of innovation in respective markets, including emerging technologies and business models
Provide a forum for joint policy work and discussions
Provide firms with an environment in which to trial cross-border solutions
The current GFIN members are Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF), Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC), Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB), Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (BCFP, USA), Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), Financial Conduct Authority (FCA, UK), Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC), Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), Ontario Securities Commission (OSC, Canada), and Consultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP). GFIN is designed to be an inclusive community of financial services regulators and related organizations. The eventual membership of the GFIN that take this project forward is still to be determined. The above organizations are committed to exploring the idea further, but the consultation process will help inform any future involvement. Similarly, regulators not named may decide to get involved in the future or after the formal launch of GFIN. The current consultation follows a proposition document published by the UK FCA in February 2018 on the idea of a "global sandbox" and provides an update on the next steps of the project. FCA had received 50 responses to its February consultation and the overall feedback to the consultation was positive.
GFIN may be overseen by a steering group made up of a smaller number of members. The steering group would be chaired by one of the members, the role of the chair is envisioned to be that of a coordinator.

What does it mean to be "…loved by God…" (1 Thess. 1:4a)? How do we reconcile that with our afflictions? Perhaps being loved by God has far deeper implications than we would have thought. If being loved by God is only as deep as what makes us feel good at the moment, then is it limited love? Are we too shallow in our thinking? Perhaps God's love is far deeper and more immeasurable than we would have imagined. Let's take a closer look.

Q: c++: error: unrecognized command line option '-std=c++14' I just moved my PC from Ubuntu 15.10 to Linux Mint 17.3.
Before this shift, this project compiled just fine in CLion. Now, it gives the following error:

c++: error: unrecognized command line option '-std=c++14'

This is probably due to this line in my CMake file:
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++14 -W -Wall -Wextra -pedantic")

I suspect this error is due to some outdated library/compiler. I don't know exactly what I need to do.
P.S.: I know that C++14 is not completely supported in CLion, and the editor will complain about syntax errors, but it will compile fine nonetheless.

A: I am working on a high-performance cluster and the "default" version of gcc is 4.8.5, which is why I also ran into the error c++: error: unrecognized command line option '-std=c++14'.
Not having sudo rights, I could solve the issue by loading a module (https://modules.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) containing a more recent gcc version (module load compiler/gnu/9.1). So if you are working on a cluster check out module avail (or in general the documentation of the cluster).

A: -std=c++14 is called -std=c++1y in old gcc versions (at least 4.9 and older).

What qualifies as disability? And what legal protection do people who experience discrimination at work have under the Equality Act?
Though many employers are taking steps to improve workplace diversity and increase awareness around mental health, disabled people continue to face discrimination at work.
Over half of disabled people have been bullied or harassed in the workplace because of their impairment, whilst 21% try to hide their disability from their employers, according to new research. However, cuts to legal aid and the introduction of tribunal fees in 2014 has meant a drop in claims, making it an even more challenging climate for disabled people who face unfair treatment.
What amounts to a disability?
"Substantial" means something more than minor, but that could fluctuate and change and may not be present all the time. "Long term" means the effect of the impairment has to last, or is likely to last, for at least 12 months. "Day-to-day activities" means everyday activities for most people, such as using a computer, writing, sitting down, standing up, driving and lifting.
There are some conditions such as cancer, and multiple sclerosis, where you are automatically treated as disabled and entitled to protection as soon as the diagnosis is given, regardless of how the disability manifests itself.
The Act applies to all employees, job applicants, trainees, contract workers, office holders (including company directors and managers), those who are on secondment and the self-employed. All areas of employment are covered, including recruitment, selection and promotion, training, pay and the provision of benefits, retirement, dismissal, redundancy and occupational pensions.
If you are found to have a disability, this amounts to a "protected characteristic" under the Equality Act. This means that you must not be discriminated against because you have a disability or someone thinks you have a particular disability (regardless of whether you do have that disability), known as "discrimination by perception". You must also not be discriminated against if you are connected to someone with a disability, such as a child or parent. This is known as "discrimination by association".
What forms can this discrimination take?
The several ways that your employer can be found to have discriminated against you because of your disability.
The first is direct discrimination. This is where you have been treated less favourably because of your disability than someone without a disability would be treated in the same circumstances.
Indirect discrimination when there is a policy, procedure, rule or requirement that applies to everyone, but has a worse impact on you because of your disability, compared to those who don't have a disability. Indirect disability discrimination can, though, be permitted if your employer is able to show that there is a good reason for such a policy. This is known as "objective justification", but is often difficult for employers to prove.
Failure to make reasonable adjustments is another form of discrimination. There is a duty on your employer to make reasonable adjustments to help you overcome disadvantage resulting from an impairment. For example, your employer should consider providing nearby parking facilities if available, suitable seating, and flexible working. In other cases, providing a mentor, a piece of equipment, and allowing for regular breaks may be appropriate.
The final form is discrimination arising from a disability. For example, if you are treated unfavourably because of disability related ill-health absence or because of slower typing speeds.
If you cannot resolve the situation informally with your line manager, then it is best to first lodge a formal grievance which is usually with HR. If the matter remains unresolved, you can make a claim in the employment tribunal. You need to commence the process no later than three months less one day from the last act of discrimination – which may be a one off or continuing act. Many employees consider resigning at the same time due to a breach of trust and confidence and bring a claim for "constructive dismissal".
If you are dismissed, you can lodge a claim for unfair dismissal and/or discrimination in the Employment Tribunal. It is now mandatory to go through ACAS's early conciliation scheme before you can submit any claim to the tribunal.
If conciliation fails and you need to proceed to tribunal, there is an issue fee of £250 and a hearing fee of £950 which you will need to pay, although you may be entitled to a fee remission.
There is no ceiling on tribunal awards in disability discrimination cases – unlike in other kinds of unfair dismissal cases. Awards can therefore be very costly for employers who get it wrong.

More than £15m paid in cold weather payments to Scots so far this year
Some 621,000 payments have already been made across Scotland - here's how it works and who is eligible
Annie Gouk
A bitter winter and the Beast from the East has seen the government pay out more than £15 million in cold weather payments to Scottish residents so far this year - 22 times more than last year.
The Social Fund Cold Weather Payments scheme provides help to individuals on benefits who are the most vulnerable to the cold.
These can include older people in receipt of Pension Credit, as well as disabled adults, families with a disabled child or families with a child under five who are in receipt of certain benefits.
Warning from police following spate of car thefts across Lanarkshire
The scheme runs from 1 November to 31 March each year, and a payment of £25 is automatically made to those eligible when the average temperature hits 0°C or below over seven consecutive days.
While there are still several weeks left to go until the end of the cold weather payment season, the government has already made around 621,000 payments across Scotland, totalling at least £15.4 million.
In comparison, only around 32,000 payments were made between 1 November 2016 and 31 March 2017, coming to just £0.7 million overall.
Plans for 'rapid rehousing' to end homelessness across Scotland unveiled
To work out the payments, each residential postcode area in the country is linked to one of 94 weather stations across Great Britain - and some areas have been hit harder than others.
Unsurprisingly, all of the most affected areas have been in Scotland, with the Braemar and Loch Glascarnoch weather stations both seeing cold weather payments triggered on seven separate occasions.
These stations are linked with parts of Aberdeen, Perth and Inverness.
Glasgow stores among 60 New Look branches earmarked for closure
Similarly, the Aboyne, Aviemore and Tulloch Bridge weather stations have recorded five occasions when temperatures reached 0°C or below for a full week - affecting parts of Aberdeen, Dundee, Perth, Inverness, Falkirk and Paisley.
Across Great Britain, the government has already made more than 3.6 million payments, coming to £90.7 million overall, compared to just 131,000 payments totalling £3.3 million last year.

Ulead DVD MovieFactory 4 Disc Creator (6/2005)
Alternate Approaches
Assembling Clips for DVD Authoring
DVD Creation: Menu Design to Burning
Straight to DVD -- and Re-Editing
Photo, Music, and Data Discs
Your Media on Disc
See also: Ulead Video Studio 9
Ever noticed the strange terminology in our digital video world? -- If you assemble your tapes into a production, it's called Video EDITING, but if you assemble them into menus it's called DVD AUTHORING, or if you send them directly to CD or DVD it's called Disc BURNING. Historically, these were three different kinds of activities, requiring different kinds of tools. So you needed to have the right software, and an understanding of its purpose and limitations, before you could get your video material into your desired final format.
Obviously, this partitioning of tasks and products is confusing, and software developers have responded in two ways. First, new products have blurred the lines between categories by assimilating new functions: adding DVD menu creation and burning to video editing tools -- and video capture, assembly, and editing to DVD authoring tools. Secondly, developers have combined their products into suites that provide a broad range of capabilities in one integrated collection.
Ulead DVD Movie Factory 4 Disc Creator, released in March 2005, is the latest example of this trend (www.ulead.com/dmf). The Disc Creator product is a suite of tools built around DVD Movie Factory, combining DVD authoring with disc burning and basic video editing. It is designed to be the answer for getting any kind of media stuff (data files, music, slideshows, video) to any kind of disc format (e.g., CD and DVD, MP3 and DVD-Audio, VCD to DVD Video, and DivX), with the ability to import, convert, and edit almost any kind of common format (Windows and QuickTime files, DV tape, set-top DVD recorders).
In this latest version, DVD Movie Factory has refined the interface to all this functionality to further deemphasize the need to be concerned about choosing the proper software application. Instead, it uses a snazzy new Launcher and Quick-Drop front ends to set you up directly in the proper tool, pre-configured for your needs. Plus it adds interesting new technology such as support for widescreen 16:9 video, DVD-Audio, and double-layer DVD burning.
DVD Movie Factory takes a task-oriented approach to creating discs. The new Launcher application starts up with a nice animated fade-in effect, and provides a clean and approachable look for getting started, including a sweet translucent reflection against the desktop background.
DVD Movie Factory Disc Creator- Application Launcher
The Launcher takes you through three steps to figure out what you want to do: choosing the physical disc format (DVD or CD), the basic task (creating a new disk for a type of media, or copying / editing an existing disc), and then the gory details of the output disc format for that media (DVD-Video, MP3, etc.).
You start at the top left by choosing the icon for your output disc format: DVD or CD (use the third Favorites icon to build a list of tasks that you use most often). The information line along the bottom changes as you move the mouse to prompt you through the options.
The Launcher then displays a list of tasks for the selected disc format along the left side of the window. For either DVD or CD, you can assemble material to create a new Video, Slideshow, Music, or Data disc; or you can Copy (and shrink to Fit), or Edit an existing disc.
When you then click to select a task, the Launcher displays a grid of choices, either creating a new disc in one of the available formats (e.g., Create a Video DVD as DVD-Video, DVD-VR, DivX), or editing an Existing Project. Then click an entry to launch the appropriate DVD Movie Factory tool, already configured for your desired media type and disc format.
Since different people can have very different working styles, DVD Movie Factory offers several alternate approaches to getting started working with media and discs.
The most obvious is to use the Launcher to choose the kind of task you want to perform, based on the media type and disc format. The small box at the bottom left of the Launcher also provides access to additional disc utilities: Info on the application, Disc, or Drive; Format, Erase, or Close Disc; and create Label.
Or for a more drag and drop approach, you can use the new Quick-Drop application, which displays a set of animated icons along the right side of the screen. Each icon box represents a different type of media or action. You can drag files to the associated box to collect them, and then double-click the icon to launch the application to create the final disc. Or you can right-click for direct access to associated disc tools.
The top Quick-Drop icon is the Play box, used to play, capture, or collect media files. Next are the Video, Data, and Music boxes, used to collect files to burn a disc for the associated type of media. The bottom icons are the Copy and Sync boxes, used to copy discs, or sync files to an external drive (or device).
Finally, if you are application organized, you still can use the traditional approach: simply mouse into the Windows Start menu to launch a specific tool to do your work. But even in the Start menu hierarchy, Ulead has organized the software by tasks: Data Burning (Ulead Burn.Now), Disc Tools (Ulead Copy.Now), DVD Authoring (Ulead DVD MovieFactory), DVD Player (Ulead DVD Player), DVD Shrinking (Ulead DVD Tweak and Fit) and DVD-VR Recording (Ulead DiskRecorder). There also are the Ulead Quick-Drop and Launcher applications, and the Label@Once tool.
If you launch DVD Movie Factory or Burn.Now individually, they also start up with their own mini-launcher screens to help you choose the kind of operation you want to perform.
The suite also includes Ulead Data-Add, a UDF file system driver that provides drag and drop access for copying files to a recordable disc, as if it was a floppy disk. This is an optional part of the installation, since it may conflict with other packet-writing programs (such as Adaptec/Roxio DirectCD).
The core function of the Disc Creator suite, of course, is DVD authoring using DVD Movie Factory. Movie Factory takes you step by step through the disc creation process, with a clean straightforward interface familiar from other Ulead applications. Plus it offers access to additional options for more advanced users though drop-down panels and menus.
DVD MovieFactory - DVD Launcher
The first step, Add/Edit Media, provides amazing flexibility for importing, assembling, and even editing the clips that are going to be used in your disc. You can start by importing video files from disk in a variety of formats, including AVI, Windows Media, QuickTime, and MPEG.
Add/Edit Media - Trim, Add chapters
You also can create slideshows from a collection of still image files. You can auto-enhance each image, annotate with text, overlay with graphics decorations, and record sound annotation. Then apply animated transition and pan / zoom effects, and sync the show to a background music track.
Besides importing files, DVD Movie Factory has built-in support you might expect from a video editing tool for capturing video (and still images) from DV tape or any other supported Windows capture device (such as a TV tuner). And like a DVD copy tool, DVD Movie Factory can import content from a DVD: by chapters and by audio, subtitle, and video tracks.
Once you have imported a clip you can do further basic editing: Multi-trim a clip into separate sub-clips, or Join / Separate multiple clips. Also use the Enhance Video option to auto enhance the clip, add transition effects within the clip (or automatically at scene changes), overlay text, and record a voiceover to mix with the original clip and an optional music track.
As an extra bonus, DVD Movie Factory also includes an Export option to save any of your assembled clips, in DVD-compliant or custom MPEG-2 format.
Finally, for longer clips that you might want to turn into sub-menus, use Add/Edit Chapters to explicitly set chapter points within the clip.
After you have assembled the final group of separate media clips that you will include on your DVD, move on to the next Setup Menu step. DVD Movie Factory will automatically create thumbnail menus to link to each of these clips. You can start with pre-defined menu templates, and customize the look by importing your own menu background (still or motion) and music. Also adjust the layout, including the number and position of thumbnail buttons, the button shape, and button frame graphics. Apply the changes to an individual menu, or to all menus.
All the menu content is automatically generated from the selected clips and chapter points; you can manually adjust the position of menu elements, but DVD Movie Factory does not provide the ability to create your own hierarchy of menus, or manually insert new elements on menus.
Then move on to the Preview step to see your DVD design. DVD Movie Factory even previews motions menus in real time, so you can see the menu background video and menu button video thumbnails. (Double-click the button in the Setup Menu step to set the in and out points for the looped section of the clip in the motion menu.)
Finally, move on to the Finish step to burn to disc. You can create standard DVD-Video discs, or burn in re-editable DVD+VR or DVD-VR Video Recording formats that are compatible with "plus" or "dash" set-top DVD recorders. You also can save DVD Movie Factory project files to the disc to re-open and edit later.
Finish - Burn
Even once you have created a DVD project, DVD Movie Factory now allows you to burn the same (short) project not only as a full DVD, but also to CD in VideoCD (VCD) or Super VideoCD (SVCD) format (albeit with DVD features removed).
You also can create DVD folders or a disc image file on hard disk, to preview from disk, or use later to burn copies of the disc.
And, beyond DVD Video, since some set-top DVD players now can play discs with files in DivX video format, you can use Ulead Burn.Now to burn a DivX DVD (using files already in DivX format).
If you are transferring a video tape directly to disc, use the Straight to DVD option from the DVD Movie Factory Launcher to start up Ulead DiskRecorder. Choose the input video source, set the capture duration, and choose to insert chapter points at fixed intervals.
Straight to DVD
Then start the capture. DVD Movie Factory captures and burns to disc in real time (with pauses if needed to catch up on a slower system) -- there's no wait for a separate compression and authoring step, and no need to free up multiple DVD-sized blocks of temporary space on your hard disc.
And don't despair if you find you want to change a disc after you have burned it -- with DVD Movie Factory, you open up an existing disc and edit it further. You can edit DVD-VR and DVD+VR discs created on set-top DVD recorders, which provide information about the clips and menus on the discs. And when you edit a disc created by DVD Movie Factory, it uses the project file saved to a data area on the disc to re-open the disc as a full project -- so you can continue to edit text, update the style, and add or delete new chapters and clips.
You also can work with other (unprotected) DVDs, even if they are not in re-editable formats, by copying and extracting portions of their contents. Use Ulead Copy.Now to directly copy disc to disc, or use Ulead DVD Tweak and Fit to extract and recompress portions of a disc. Tweak and Fit parses through the DVD's structure and content so you can choose to extract selected titles and tracks. Plus, it can recompress the content to fit to a smaller disc size (i.e., extract portions of a DVD to a CD).
(Remember, you also can use DVD Movie Factory to extract video and audio segments from a disc, to use in a new project, or to export individual chapters and tracks directly as MPEG files.)
Beyond video, the DVD MovieFactory Disc Creator suite also includes tools for creating photo, music, and data discs. For photos, you can use the slideshow component in DVD MovieFactory to assemble animated shows, complete with effects and background music, and burn as DVD or Video CD.
For audio, the DVD MovieFactory suite now can create not only Audio CDs, but also long-playing audio DVDs in several formats: a regular DVD-Video with just audio content, DVD-Audio, and MP3 DVD. DVD-Video discs, of course, can play in any set-top or PC player. DVD-Audio discs require a compatible player, though newer PC player software now supports the format. And MP3 discs are just data discs with MP3 files, playable on computers, and on some set-top players.
For all of these formats (and for data discs), you use Ulead Burn.Now to assemble a list of tracks. For creating MP3 discs, the imported files must already be in MP3 format. You can rip tracks from audio CDs, or use Tools > Convert Audio Files to convert between a variety of common formats, including Windows Media, WAV, MP3, and MPEG. You also can edit an existing MP3 or data disc and update its contents.
For DVD-Video and DVD-Audio, you can import audio files in a variety of video and audio formats, and the audio content will be extracted and converted to DVD-compatible format (choose either uncompressed LPCM or compressed Dolby Digital for DVD-Video). Both DVD-Video and DVD-Audio are recorded in high-quality 44.1 KHz, 16-bit stereo.
For creating long-playing compilations, Audio CD and DVD-Audio discs can contain up to 99 tracks or songs, and audio-only DVD-Video discs can contain up to 99 titles, each with up to 99 tracks.
The new Ulead DVD Movie Factory 4 Disc Creator is all about getting your media to disc in the desired format. While focused on authoring, it also includes enough editing, trimming, and enhancement capability to not requiring a separate editing step before you import clips. This version includes new refinements in areas like video annotations and transitions within clips, slideshows with pan and zoom motion effects, and music mixing, normalizing, and fading.
The ability to directly extract content out of a DVD is particularly helpful, with the bonus of being able to save your assembled clips directly to disk. You can re-edit your discs, import from existing discs, or copy and extract portions of a disc's contents.
While focused on DVD-Video, DVD Movie Factory provides the convenient option to also export to Video CD formats without having to re-create your project from scratch, or create a DivX video disc. For audio, you not only can create audio CDs, but also assemble larger collections of music into long-playing 6-hour DVD-Audio discs or up to 45 hours onto an audio-only DVD-Video disc in Dolby Digital format.
Released in March 2005, the full Ulead DVD Movie Factory 4 Disc Creator suite is priced at US $99.99 (list), with the authoring-only DVD Movie Factory 4 application at $49.99.
