Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) The HSIP is the projects, activities, plans, and reports carried out under 23 U.S.C. FHWA has developed a wide variety of resources to help States plan highway safety improvement projects using a performance-driven process; implement those projects; evaluate the effectiveness of past projects and report annually on the status of HSIP implementation efforts.

Dude. Love your blog. But your headlines need work. They just don't pull me in. This one is a good example of that. Please entertain me!
Great stuff you got on your blog!
Very informative articles and great style of writing.


Research on workplace injury and disability prevention at the Institute for Work & Health (IWH) would not be as extensive without the support of our external funders. Here are some examples of what their continued support will allow IWH scientists to investigate in the coming year.
A question IWH researchers often hear when presenting results of systematic reviews is, "How would this finding apply to our context?" Whether the research evidence is about a workplace health and safety intervention or a public health program, making use of evidence means taking into consideration a whole host of factors. What are the characteristics of the local population? What laws and regulations—or what workplace policies and practices—could affect the use of the evidence? What service or infrastructure is there to support the recommendation? What are the costs?
Finding a process to help stakeholders make use of systematic review findings is the impetus behind a new study funded by the Research and Workplace Innovation Program of the Manitoba Workers Compensation Board (WCB). The study is co-led by Dr. Stephen Bornstein, founder and director of the Newfoundland Centre for Applied Health Research (NLCAHR), and Emma Irvin, IWH's director of research operations, who also heads up the Institute's systematic review program. The team will produce a systematic review (or an update) and find ways to adapt it to the Manitoba context. In the process, it will develop a handbook to guide users of systematic reviews on how to apply review findings to a local context.
The Institute recently received funding for the first-ever survey of organizational policies and practices in the industrial, commercial and institutional construction sector in Ontario. Funded by the Ministry of Labour Research Opportunities Program, this study will be conducted in collaboration with the Ontario Construction Secretariat.
This study will examine many different factors to find out what the determinants of health and safety are in this sector, says IWH Associate Scientific Director Dr. Sheilah Hogg-Johnson, who shares the role of primary investigator with Senior Scientist Dr. Ben Amick. The research team will look at a wide range of factors, including firm size, unionization, organizational policies and practices, people-oriented culture, active safety leadership, safety training, disability management and so on. The study will also look at Ministry of Labour inspections and orders and learn whether they vary according to the factors above.
There is strong evidence that primary care doctors play an important role in whether injured workers successfully return to work. Research has also shown that doctors often find it challenging to engage in the return-to-work process. In a two-year study funded by Manitoba WCB's Research and Workplace Innovation Program, an IWH team will examine the experience of health-care providers in the workers' compensation system.
The team, led by IWH Scientist Dr. Agnieszka Kosny, will interview health-care providers across four provinces and ask them about challenges dealing with the system and strategies to improve their experience. The team will also draw on policy analyses and interviews with senior policy-makers to examine the various approaches for engaging primary care physicians in different jurisdictions.

In addition to the Institute for Work & Health (IWH)'s core funding from the Ontario Ministry of Labour, IWH scientists receive peer-reviewed grants and awards from funding agencies. The list below reflects grants received from June 2013 to June 2014.

In these challenging times, our parents need us more than ever: Sachin Tendulkar
Wednesday, June 3, 2020 IWK Bureau
Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar on Monday stressed on the importance of taking care of parents even more at this time of crisis when the world is fighting with the COVID-19 pandemic.
"The unconditional love, support and attention that our parents showered on us as we were growing up laid our foundation as individuals. In my life too, the support and guidance from my parents helped me become the person I am today.
"In these challenging times, our parents need us more than ever. It's our responsibility to take care of them & even more so now during these tough times," Tendulkar said in a post on popular social media platform Instagram with a throwback photo of him spending time with his parents.
The coronavirus outbreak has brought the world to a standstill with India being under lockdown since March 25 to curb its spread.
Recently, Indian footballer Sandesh Jhingan said Tendulkar's positivity is contagious also revealing an interesting anecdote featuring 'The Master Blaster'.
After Kerala Blasters lost the Indian Super League (ISL) final in 2014 to ATK, Jhingan revealed how Tendulkar gave him a pep talk and said he won the World Cup in 2011 after six attempts.
"I was so drained and upset. He came to me and calmly said 'Sandesh, it took me 6 attempts to win the World Cup. You can't lose your heart after losing it in the first go," Jhingan said during a Facebook Live session organised by the All India Football Federation (AIFF).
Tendulkar was the co-owner of Kerala Blasters previously.
All cricket in the country is currently on hold due to the pandemic which has forced the cash-rich Indian Premier League (IPL) to also get postponed indefinitely. The BCCI is now looking at a November window to stage the 13th edition of the league with talks of the T20 World Cup in Australia likely to be called off this year.

'You shall know the truth', Jesus is reported to have said, adding that the truth would make his hearers free (John 8:32). One's first instinct may be to take the truth referred to here as being some teaching that is true, say Christianity. But in the world of the Bible and the Church, 'knowing' often has the sense not of intellectual knowledge that we can have about something but of the deep knowledge we can have of another person (hence it is used of sexual intimacy, as at Gen 4:1, Matt 1:25). And as Jesus elsewhere describes himself as the way, the truth and the life, perhaps the liberating truth he wants people to know is himself; he is the truth that will set his hearers free. And so, in his words that occur a little later, 'if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed' (John 8:36).
This interpretation may be unexpected. But it makes sense in the light of other portions of John's Gospel (especially 17:17, 19, where words are attributed to Christ that, when read carefully, strongly suggest identification of the speaker with the truth), and is that of Cyril of Alexandria, according to whom 'we should go resolutely forward to the truth itself, which is Christ the giver of true freedom.' 'What is truth?' asked Pilate, it being his failure to recognise that it was standing in front of him.


There is great doubt as to whether Guam divorces where neither party resides in Guam are worth the paper they are written on.
Companies "selling" Guam divorces claim that they are enforceable and will be recognized in American states and other countries -- even though the divorces are based on the complete fiction that the parties themselves claim to be "domiciled" in a place with which they generally have no connection.
Now the Guam legislature has corrected some of the abuse.
The requirement is that one spouse spends a week's vacation in Guam before getting divorced.
Will this solve the problem? We tend to doubt it. A weeks's vacation in a place hardly equates to being resident or domiciled there.
The number of divorces on Guam is expected to drop dramatically this year, not because couples are trying harder to make their marriages work, but because it is now more difficult for non-residents to end their marriage using the local court system.
From now on, anyone who wants to get divorced on Guam will actually have to set foot on the island and stay a few days before it can happen, lawmakers said yesterday.
The Legislature went into session yesterday, where they discussed several bills, including a bill by Sen. Benjamin Cruz , D-Piti, that would make it more difficult for nonresidents to get divorced here.
The way the current law is written, you must live on Guam for at least 90 days before you can get a divorce here, but that residency requirement is not enforced if it is an uncontested divorce.
Several local attorneys have opposed any changes to the law, saying the island provides a needed service to members of the military and others who have a hard time getting a divorce because they move frequently and do not meet residency requirements.
It also brings additional revenue to the island, some have argued.
Cruz yesterday said lawmakers must make a choice -- allow Guam to continue as the "divorce mill" of the Pacific or close the loophole that allows for nonresident divorces. If it is to continue, then requiring the people getting divorced to stay on Guam for a while would benefit other sectors of the economy as well, aside from the law firms, he said.
Senator Judith Won Pat, D-Inarajan, said she believes the current practice is driven by greed.
"I surely don't want Guam to be known as a divorce haven," she said. "We're only thinking of today, what can we put in our pockets today."
But other lawmakers said they see no problem with the current law.
Sen. Adolpho Palacios, D-Ordot, said the current divorce law provides a "reasonable accommodation" to service members.
"I don't see the detriment to the our island. I don't see that this causes any harm," said Sen. Ray Tenorio, R-Yigo.
He noted that lawmakers in the last Legislature supported using Guam as a mediation center for nonresidents, so it is inconsistent to try to prevent the island from being used as a place for nonresidents to get divorced.
While Cruz's bill would have enforced a 90-day residency requirement for divorces, lawmakers yesterday arrived at a compromise, reducing the residency requirement to only seven days and requiring at least one spouse of the divorcing couple to be on Guam during that time before divorce papers can be filed.
If the bill is approved during session and signed into law, the changes will take effect Jan. 1, which Tenorio said will allow enough time for current divorce cases to be completed.

Sydney-based data analytics and marketing services provider Skyfii (ASX:SKF) has reported a 51.7 per cent year-on-year retreat in losses for the six months ending 2017, citing new set up contracts within Australia.
During the half-year ended 31 December 2017, the publicly-listed company reported a net loss after tax (NPAT) of $1.1 million – a marked retreat from the $2.3 million net after-tax loss it reported the same period the year prior.
The company also reported operating earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) losses of $303,454, also a major retreat from the $1.8 million loss the year prior.
The turnaround is largely due to an 83.1 per cent year-on-year surge in total revenues for the period, to $3.2 million. This figure included a 72 per cent increase in recurring revenues, year-on-year.
The company said its revenue increase was mainly driven by the successful deployment of major data analytics and infrastructure set up contracts within Australia.
"In addition to the success in Australia, Skyfii gained significant growth in customer contract conversion in the UK and European markets which will contribute to future operating revenues in the second half of FY2018 and beyond," the company told shareholders on 23 February.
The latest financials come several months after the company revealed it had closed the 2017 financial year with an operating net loss after tax (NPAT) of $4.8 million and operating loss before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of $4.9 million.
This was off the back of $3.2 million revenue, up 37 per cent compared to 2016.
Since then, the company has announced a number of wins, as well as a few acquisitions.

The company said in January it had landed its first contract within the banking and financial services sector, striking a new deal with HSBC Australia to deploy its software-as-a-service IO platform across the bank's branches to help it improve overall customer experience.
On 5 February 2018, meanwhile, the company announced the acquisition of various assets of US-based marketing services business, Causely, including its trading name, trademarks, intellectual property, customer contracts, contract pipeline and data in the US. The deal was worth about $3.5 million.


Three years ago, while at the top of my game, I walked into my boss' office and resigned. Just like that. People thought I was crazy. I'm sure they thought I was having some sort of crisis. I wasn't. I have spent the last three years being there for my family, my community and, in my spare time, writing. That writing has resulted in a book, a real book, which is now published and out there in the real world for others to read (amazon.ca). In just a few days I will have a little party (click for Invitation) to celebrate its completion and I will be donating part of the proceeds from book sales to two local non-profit organizations dedicated to helping expectant and new parents. I can't wait.
I can't believe this is happening but just like that, as a result of a casual conversation a couple months ago, I find myself pulling out those suits from the back of my closet and heading back into the boardroom. I am embarking on a career as a financial advisor. I have spent the last six weeks studying and I have written two exams in a week. I think the last time I wrote an exam Buffy was slaying vampires, the Spice Girls were topping the charts and I didn't have two children hovering around looking for attention and for something to eat every few hours. All to say, it's been awhile. But that's all done … the exams are over (for now) and in a few short days I will be licensed in the province of Ontario. I am ready to take on the world. As moms we often struggle with our own guilt about whether we are doing a good job, should we work out of the home, shouldn't we? We often carry a big load on our shoulders. Thankfully my girls and husband are extremely supportive. I am excited and nervous all at the same time which has proven in the past to be a good combination that keeps me motivated to succeed. Let's see what the future has in store for @KatinaMichelis !

I've written a lot of posts about ide's over the years. Since I am using codeigniter, I did a brief look around to see if there was a good ide for coding CI. What I found was that a good MVC (like CI or Ruby) really negates the need for an ide. A really good programmer's text editor works just fine. I use TextMate.

Player Ratings: Bolton Wanderers 0–1 Hull City
Another meek home defeat leaves Bolton well and truly in a relegation battle

Share All sharing options for: Player Ratings: Bolton Wanderers 0–1 Hull City
Photo by Nathan Stirk/Getty Images
Hull City won for the first time in 21 visits to Bolton by a first half Frazier Campbell (yes he's still playing) goal and dumped Wanderers firmly in the thick of relegation trouble and piled pressure on manager Phil Parkinson. Six changes were made from the mid-week defeat to Nottingham Forest, as Parky adopted a 3-4-1-2 formation which earned the Whites a point at Rotherham last weekend. Let's have a look how the players rated.
Ben Alwnick: GK: 6.5: Yes the goal went through his legs but it was struck from such close range that I think you can't really blame him for that. Did well to read Kamil Grosicky's second half effort to make a save to keep us in the game. Perhaps was a little slow in distributing the ball at times if I'm nit picking.
Marc Wilson: CB: 5.0: Does show quality on the ball but does he show enough grit and defensive diligence? Seems to frequently get beaten too easily on the ground and then rather than working hard to get back in position he shouts and points at everyone else. Needs to show more for a player of his experience.
Jack Hobbs: CB: 6.0: Another steady performance by the former Forest man, winning plenty in the air and generally winning his personal battles. Will have to shoulder his share of the blame for a ball being allowed to trickle across the 6-yard box before being converted by Frazier Campbell.
Mark Beevers: CB: 5.5: A very Mark Beevers performance. Some good strong tackles and headers won and some better passing, but as always combined with some aimless hoofing. Weak defending early on to allow the ball to come in from the left-hand side for the Hull City goal. Also irritates me that a man of 6'5" tall seems to completely fail to be an attacking threat from set pieces.
Pawel Olkowski: RWB: 5.5: Got up and down the right-hand side with his trademark enthusiasm but unsure if he is truly comfortable in the wing back role. Doesn't seem to want to try and beat a full back down the outside, hence his insistence in cutting inside often resulted in him running into trouble and narrowing the pitch, making it easy for Hull to defend. Was static in his defending for the Hull City goal.
Lloyd Dyer: LWB: 5.5: The one-time Dyer really ran at his full back he easily beat him and looked a threat, but this didn't happen anywhere near often enough, whether it was Dyer's fault or the players around him not feeding him, Dyer didn't really do much else of note before being substituted. I get the feeling that he is still feeling his way to match fitness and there may be more to come from the experienced wide man.
Josh Vela: CM: 6.0: Will inevitably get blamed as he always does, but I have sympathy for Vela as he is frequently asked to play different roles week in and week out. For the most part he harried the Hull players relatively well and provided energy in front of the back four. I'm probably on my own in thinking that his partnership with Williams has some potential if it was given time. Blotted his copy book with some soft defending down the left with Beevers to open the door for Hull City to score the only goal of the game.
Joe Williams: CM: 7.0: The Everton loanee showed great desire to win and never stopped running, putting in his best performance in a White shirt since his debut at Preston. He always showed for the ball and was willing to run beyond the central strikers. Not everything he tried came off, but Parky must encourage him to continue to be brave in his play and use his energy to make those positive runs forward.
Erhan Oztumer: CAM: 5.5: Oh Ozzie, I really want to like you. He's had several games playing in the attacking midfield role and he hasn't really produced yet. He always looked like he could make something happen, he was brave and showed for the ball, but in general his use of it was poor. His lay off attempts for one twos were rarely accurate enough, the same with his cross-field passes. Played a good through ball to Donaldson (though again if I was harsh I thought it pushed the striker too wide) and showed excellent feet to open up a relatively simple shooting opportunity, that he contrived to put wide. Would have been a 6 for effort and trying to be creative, however he loses another half mark for taking all the set pieces and almost all hitting the first man or floated unthreateningly to the back post.
Clayton Donaldson: CF: 7.0: This guy is in great nick for 35. Made great headway in running the channels to push the Hull defence back and get Bolton up the pitch. Won a lot of flicks into dangerous areas and bullied the Hull centre backs in his role as target man. Was unlucky with his lofted finish on his weaker left foot running away from goal in the first half. Tired in the last twenty minutes as Wanderers lost their shape chasing an equaliser.
Christian Doidge: CF: 5.0: This mark is potentially harsh as he had little or no service, but as one of our writers asked on our chat 'what is he?'. Our conclusion is that he is a fox in the box finisher of the ilk of Ivan Klasnic, but can we afford to play with a player like that in our system. Never looked like having the pace to get on the end of any of Donaldson's flicks and apart from the odd one-two he also didn't seem to have the strength to hold the ball up. I get that he needs time to adjust from League Two, but I also can't help but feel that the way we are using him isn't doing him any favours either.
Subs:
Buckley for Dyer (67): 5.0: Much like Dyer didn't seem to get into the game down the left-hand side.
Magennis for Olkowski (81): N/A Yes you want to throw an extra striker on but has Magennis ever played wing back before. Made some powerful runs but in my opinion should have been brought on much earlier in the centre forward role. Hard to give him a rating as a right wing back.
Parky: 5.0: He's really struggling at the moment. The line-up today was positive and I could see the logic behind it, but then he was let down by conceding a really soft goal. I don't rate throwing a striker into a wing back role just to get another forward on the pitch because I can't believe that the players are used to that system. Hence it seemed to destroy what little cohesion we had. The players are certainly still giving him effort, but has his long-standing tendency to set up defensively impacted upon his ability to instil confidence in his players to go out and attack to win a game? He badly needs a result as fan backing is rapidly eroding.

2. Consumers were turning to social channels such as Facebook, Twitter and other unbranded communities.
At the same time, the proliferation of connected consumers led to a drastic increase in customers which expected to get support from and engage directly with brands on digital channels.
From 2002 until 2012, the AT&T Community was home to a group of grassroots community leaders, a combination of citizen and advocate influencers participating in the forum and providing support. The community leaders engaged in discussions and answered questions in their areas of expertise with little interaction with each other. The solutions provided on the forums - a key metric for a support community - stalled with no signs of growth, despite community leader participation.
In 2011, AT&T leadership made the strategic decision to increase investment in the community to help customers get support 24/7 on social channels. We knew an appealing program would drive success by spurring our influencers to engage in more dialogs, create more solutions, and give us feedback. We needed their participation to improve the quality of our content and get valuable feedback on multiple initiatives.
We created an influencer program – the "Award for Community Excellence" (ACE)" - to formally identify and engage both citizen and advocate influencers. In preparation for a late 2012 launch, we engaged experienced outside vendors – including Lithium - to ensure we created a scalable, sustainable program. They analyzed the opportunity, performed a competitive analysis and aligned our team on influencer business objectives. We concluded that we needed to improve the reach and connectivity of the influencer network, the ability of individuals to influence both content and their own presence, and the degree of enthusiasm towards the AT&T Community.
c. Development of an AT&T Philanthropy program specific to ACEs. ACEs nominated dozens and ultimately selected five local 501C3 charities to each receive $5,000 gifts from AT&T. ACEs accompanied AT&T External Affairs managers in delivering checks.
Today the AT&T Community Forums boasts 59 ACEs representing 23 U.S. states and two Canadian provinces. The ACEs represent a cross-section of our Community and our customer base with professions including a chemist, NASA engineer, butter co-op manager, orthodontic assistant, film producer, seamstress, retiree, etc.
In addition, we consult with our Lithium Success Manager frequently to share ideas and Lithium moderators routinely advise of threads of interest involving ACEs.
One of the greatest outcomes of the program is the change in perception of AT&T and the community that has occurred since the program began. Our survey showed that 30 percent of ACEs said that the program improved their opinion of AT&T. The kudos use has increased by 36 percent since the program launch. This tells us that our members are more engaged and that they find the AT&T Community to be a helpful and supportive environment.
The last and perhaps greatest outcome of the program has been the increase in customer solutions provided on the community. The monthly average solutions have increased by 58 percent since the launch. This increase provides huge benefit back to AT&T by allowing us to focus on assisting customers with other important service needs, since many questions are answered on the AT&T Community. The solutions are high-quality content that can be reused throughout att.com and found in search results.
The ACE program has greatly benefitted AT&T by building stronger relationships with top influencers, who in turn increase their participation on the community and assist customers with answers to support questions.
We are building strong relationships with the ACEs. Before the launch of the ACE program and its improvements, we did not feel that we could engage the top influencers for feedback because we lacked a connection with them. They were on our community helping our customers, but we had no way to formally and consistently thank them. Now we continually learn about them through the ACE of the month posts, collect their feedback and ideas in conference calls and the private ACE Community, connect with them about support issues and keep up an ongoing conversation. In fact, 90 percent of the ACEs cited the connection with AT&T staff (specifically, our full-time ACE program manager) as being a favorite program component in the survey.
Before the launch of the ACE program, top users did not communicate with each other across product lines (e.g. a Wireless top user never crossed paths with a U-verse® top user). Now the ACEs have great relationships with one another, sharing information and ideas amongst themselves in the private ACE Community. Our survey found that 74 percent of ACEs cited the connection with other ACEs as being another favorite component of the program. The ACEs regularly congratulate one another for being named ACE of the month or for having one of their solutions highlighted within a support article on att.com. Recently, a U-verse ACE and a Wireless ACE shared knowledge in the ACE Lounge to solve a product problem. A third ACE chimed in and authored an easily-understood history of telephony that we subsequently published in the larger, public community. Another ACE has authored his own technical guide.
We are grateful to Lithium for helping build our ACE program. We're proud of our ACEs and delighted with the success we've seen with the program. We've designed the program to be sustainable and enduring and we will continue to recognize and thank exceptional community contributions in the years to come.

Timrå IK Supporterklubb är ishockeyklubben Timrå IK:s supporterklubb. Timrå IK Supporterklubb bildades 4 februari 1962, och är därmed Sveriges äldsta ishockeysupporterförening och den fjärde äldsta supporterföreningen i alla kategorier.

Historia
Den första styrelsen bestod av ordförande Göte Westlund, ledamöterna Henry Johansson, Karl-Gösta Lindström, Henning Huss, Harry Åberg, samt revisorerna Bertil Olsson och Karl-Uno Gordon. Valberedningen bestod av Arne Tjärnström och Rune Karlsson.

De första verksamhetsåren var supporterklubben en viktig del av Timrå IK:s operativa organisation, där supporterklubbens ordförande Göte Westlund in på 1970-talet bland annat skötte spelarvärvningar samt ordnade jobb och lägenheter till spelare.  Sedan detta började hanteras inom Timrå IK har supporterklubbens verksamhet renodlats till att organisera och utveckla supporterverksamheten med klacken på Västra stå, supporterresor och tifo-arrangemang.

Utöver kärnområdet Timrå/Sundsvall och regionen norra Hälsingland, Medelpad och södra Ångermanland har supporterklubben regionsavdelningar i form av TIK08  för Stockholm/Mälardalen samt TIK031 för Göteborgsområdet.

This was a first mapping of the potential for the return of migrants, re-integration into the labour market, and contribution to the development of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) by its young Diaspora. The results of the survey, including demographic characteristics of the migrants; motivations for and obstacles to their return and reintegration into the BiH labour market; ties to and identification with their home country; as well as comparisons across groups, are analysed in their report.
The aim is to identify the challenges and opportunities for young Diaspora to return successfully to BiH as well as to identify interest and motivation to contribute to its development whether or not they are interested in returning. It offers policy considerations as well as suggestions for future researchers in BiH.


Besides the major cities in the U.S., most other places are fashion graveyards. I started my Fashion Merchandising education in one of those places. It was a late August day when I arrived at my first Fashion Fundamentals class at a small college in Connecticut. As I entered the 90's-style carpeted classroom I was shocked to see only four other students.
I opened up to a professor about my aspirations of attending a larger school with a more established fashion program. It was then that I learned about LIM College.
During my research, I concluded that LIM was both extremely unique and absolutely perfect. A college focused on the business side of the fashion industry was the exact place I wanted to study.
The only hitch was the location: New York City. Attending LIM would mean completely uprooting my life and I had so many reservations about moving. Would my boyfriend of five years acome with me? Would my parents completely freak out? How would I go all of that time without seeing my best friends? Despite my worries, I applied.
About a month later one of my best friends, Tori, was accepted into NYU for a graduate program. It was around the same time that I got the invitation for the Transfer Student/Instant Decision day. I immediately signed up.
Since I'm here today writing for the LIM blog, obviously I was accepted into what felt like a school that was made for me. Within the same week, my boyfriend was offered a full time position in New Jersey, and my other best friend, Sarah, was also accepted into NYU.
All of a sudden, the future was decided. Me, my boyfriend, and my two childhood best friends of 20 years were all moving to New York City to start the next chapter of our lives together.
Was I dreaming? Were me and three of the most important people in my life really going to make this huge move to the best city in the world together? No, I wasn't dreaming.
After a month of rigorous, stressful, and exhilarating apartment hunting, we were the new tenants of a brand new, five bedroom apartment in a quaint neighborhood in Brooklyn. We did it.
I have now lived in New York and attended LIM College for a year. Making the move wasn't easy in any sense, but at the same time, it was easy in every sense.
My feelings about LIM never changed and I feel so incredibly grateful that I get to attend this school with so many other passionate, hard working students. I am proud to be in this city where fashion doesn't go to die, but where it is born, where it thrives, and even where it is reborn again and again.
LIM is providing me with an education that will let me get the job of my dreams. The day I graduate from this school will be both a bittersweet ending, and the exciting beginning of the rest of my life.

In Islam a Woman Must be Submissive and Serve her Husband
by alisina · 31 July, 2018
About a year ago, I made one of the most important decisions I've ever made, which was to end my two-year relationship that had started off great and then quickly spiraled into the worst relationship of my life. Since that time, I've still been healing, and I've been wanting to let go of the memories, but I feel like the last step is for me to put my story out there as the warning I wish I had read and the warning that might save someone else. When things started to go bad in my relationship, I turned to the internet for help and found this website, but I found the other girls' stories weren't quite like mine. They had stories of men using them for citizenship status or using them as a girlfriend until they could marry a virgin from their religion or while they were married. I looked at my relationship and saw evidence that that was not what was going on in mine, but what was going on in mine was that I do believe he was going to marry me, since he had introduced me to his family, but this was going to be about converting me and making me like a woman from his country. There are so many things that happened and that I learned that I could write an entire book about it, but I will keep this short.
He and I met online. We had an age difference of about ten years and he lived a distance away, but he was very, very charming and seemed intelligent and romantic, so I agreed to meet him. We had a really great first date, and it seemed like we had a lot in common. Early in our relationship, we talked about what we were looking for. I told him I was planning on getting a dog soon, and he told me he was too. he told me he hadn't been married before because he was waiting for the right person, same for me. He told me he was a practicing Muslim, but that he wasn't very religious and that he respected other religions. I explained that I wasn't worried about it because I respect all religions and find every religion has good things and bad things about it. He said he agreed completely. He said if we had children in the future, they would have to be Muslim because of his family, and I agreed, thinking it wouldn't be that big of a deal. At that time, I thought I knew about Islam. I heard about its bad reputation but I thought it was an exaggeration. I knew a good deal more than my friends and family, but I was soon about to learn a whole lot more.
The first few months were great. I had given up pork to make things easier on him, but other than that, Islam wasn't a big part of our lives. We did fun things, he drank alcohol and only went to the mosque during Ramadan. The first Ramadan was hardly noticeable for me. I tried fasting one day, and the other days I just didn't eat or drink around him if we were together. I noticed a few red flags in the beginning, like he refused to open the car door for me because he wasn't used to doing things like that, but it didn't seem like a big deal. About a year in is when things started to get bad. It started when he told me he expected me to be obedient to him, out of nowhere. I got upset and told him no, that I wasn't going to live like that and if that's what he wanted, he needed to find someone else. He quickly backtracked and tried to tell me I didn't understand what the word "obedient" meant, but he more or less dropped it. But this was a major turning point. Over the course of the second year and through much manipulation, it got to the point where he was expecting me to clean his apartment, do his laundry, iron his shirts, cook for him every day from scratch whatever he wanted, go out whenever he wanted to go out, wear what he wanted me to wear, do my hair and makeup like he wanted. He even wanted to control how I thought, telling me I shouldn't watch certain movies or listen to certain music. He also told me I shouldn't go to coffee shops or see certain friends and that if I went somewhere with friends and a man was there, I should leave, and my friends should respect that or they weren't my true friends. When I would stand up for myself, it would lead to a fight every time. I also found out he was secretly married and separated, but he told me that marriage was just an arrangement. I had gotten really depressed during this time, and I would frequently cry at night, but quietly so he wouldn't fuss at me for disturbing his sleep. I would look back and think about how nice he seemed in the beginning and all the promises he made about us having a wonderful life together and wonder how it got to this point. I wondered if I had done something wrong. I wondered how he could expect so much of me to the point where I no longer had time to take care of myself, but any request I had, he wouldn't do it. I felt really disrespected, untrusted, and like I was being treated really like a servant.
I was also starting to learn more about his religion. At one point during that second year, he told me that when we got married, he would want me to wear a headscarf as a sign of respect for him. I was like, Wait a minute. I thought that was supposed to be a woman's choice, and I'm not even Muslim. He told me he expected that I would convert as I learned more. I was really shocked. This was not at all what we had talked about. I told him no, that if he couldn't see a future with me staying my religion, then we didn't have a future together. He dropped it, but I knew by now it would come up again. As far as the headscarf, he said Muslim women know the right choice to make. By this time, he had also told me that he considered the Quran the word of God and believed in it to the letter, and that Islam is a perfect religion. This prompted me to look more into the religion. What I had noticed so far was that it was much more of an OCD-like religion than I had realized. There are rules about every aspect of life, down to which foot to first step into a bathroom with. He also told me actually Muslims can't have dogs in the house. It was getting to the point where I was Googling constantly to see if something was "allowed." Meanwhile, he would get annoyed at me for practicing my religion and was starting to show disrespect for it. He told me I was the one who needed to learn about his religion, but he didn't need to learn anything about mine because it was mentioned in the Quran. When I tried to read the Quran, I found it all about fear and punishment, and there is quite a lot of mention about disbelievers and violence against them. I found out there is a lot of emphasis on treating other Muslims with morals, but it's not required to treat nonbelievers with the same morals. Also I learned that Al-Taqiyah, something that I thought was made up by conservative media, is real. It permits Muslims to lie to non-believers. When I would bring up things with him I didn't like about the religion, he would either justify it or become angry at me for disrespecting his religion. The final straw for me was when I learned the back story about why adoption is not permitted. At this point, I lost a lot of respect for the religion. I found out that the version of Islam I had been presented was a sugar-coated one and really no longer felt comfortable raising any children I might have in that religion, that seemed more and more so out of line with my values. Honestly is very important to me, as is treating everyone with respect, no matter their religion or race or gender or age or anything.
I have now come to realize that he probably wouldn't have treated me much better if I were a Muslim woman. I think the only difference would be that he wouldn't be allowed to lie to me and he would be required to support me financially. But all of the other things he expected of me I learned are requirements for Muslims wives. In Islam, a woman must be completely submissive and is not allowed to even raise her voice. She's not even allowed to refuse her husband sex. I used to get annoyed with my mother for bringing up the movie "Not Without My Daughter," thinking that only applied to extreme countries. I learned that even in the more "liberal" Islamic countries, women really basically have no rights. They don't have any say over their children, many don't have the right to divorce, they must be obedient to their husbands, and they even have to get permission from their guardian to get married, even as an adult. I really shudder to think what could have happened if I had married him and we went back to his country. I might not even be allowed to leave without his permission, and in many of those countries a woman also needs permission to travel. The women's rights issue was also something I thought was exaggerated in the media, but upon experiencing it and seeing it firsthand, I realized it's actually much worse. I knew how I had been treated, but I also was seeing up close the extreme unhappiness of a couple of women I had gotten close to. They had to serve their men smiling, but they secretly cried, but they insisted to me they were happy at first before I knew them well. One night I had to host a dinner party with two other women, one pregnant, and we all had to cook everything and then go in the back while the men ate, then come out to eat whatever was left and clean up, then make tea while the men sat outside and smoked, but we had to sit there in case they asked for anything else, like waitresses. The pregnant woman was so tired she was falling asleep on the table, but we all had to stay there. I felt like a waitress too when I cooked dinner and then had to do dishes by myself while my ex sat on the couch and relaxed. I knew not to even ask for help because it would turn into a huge fight. He would tell me all those other women did so much more than I did and did it out of love, but I knew that wasn't true; they were doing it out of fear.
The person I was three years ago would be horrified to think that I would be writing something like this. Back then, I respected Islam and was even willing to raise my children Muslim. But all of my experiences have made me feel like I want nothing to do with it, even afraid of it in some respects. It is a very restricting religion. I only just recently learned that criticism of Islam or the prophet is punishable by jail in Muslim countries, as is trying to leave the religion. I feel so thankful to have the rights that I have as a woman, to make my own decision about who to spend my life with, and as a person to practice my religion that I believe in my heart. After finally leaving him, a peace started to return to my life. It felt so wonderful to be able to take care of myself and practice my religion without having to worry, to always have to be doing something to make someone else happy, someone who would never be satisfied. I am not writing all of this to say that this is how all Muslims are. I know many Muslims do not act like this and are good people. But this is a warning specifically for women involved with or thinking about becoming involved with a Muslim man. Even if he is promising you the world, if you see the signs I did, just run while you can. It will not get better. I never would have imagined the person I met would turn into the person I had to leave. I wish I would have run sooner, but I'm so glad I didn't stay another minute. I have no doubt my situation would have turned physical in about another year and would have only gotten worse and worse. No one deserves to be treated like this, and things will be so much better for you if you get out as soon as possible. One year later, I am almost completely healed and living a much happier life. I chose to follow the man who preached forgiving people, not the one who preached stoning people, the one who taught us to love our neighbors, not smite them, and I have never looked back.

This week we delved into the second paragraph of the amidah called gevurot. Gevurot lists some of the ways God's powers and presence manifest in our world. We unpacked what some of those powers are, what they look like, and how we can do them too! One thing that stuck with me was when a kindergartener said that we could be godlike by protecting our bodies. It is a powerful idea that taking care of ourselves is a righteous and spiritual act that can make waves beyond ourselves. When kids say things like that, I feel hopeful for the future. Read on to see what else your powerful kiddos have to say!
By always being with you.
God tells people when they're going to have a baby.
God can make someone pregnant.
God can plant a seed.
God creates all the seeds.
God is half dead and half alive, so God can talk to both the dead and live people.
Also because God is half dead and half alive, God can use some of the live part on the dead part and that's healing.
God created stuff that keeps us alive.
Does God really give life? People are born, but I'm not sure if maybe God creates us before we're born.
What if God forgets how to give life?
Maybe just no new life can happen.
God helps with all the wind, and water, and fire, and aaaall the treasures from Forbidden Island (a board game).
God gave Moshe a staff that could turn into a snake and eat the magicians' snakes.
God helps by letting people help.
No one tells God what to do.
Helping out with things we want to have happen.
How can we be like God in the way God is described in gevurot?
We can feed people. Even bad people. No matter who they are.
We can be like superman.
We can protect our bodies.
We are wrapping up our unit on tefilah (prayerful conversations). In the coming week we will be working through our understanding of prayer as the language of the Jewish community, on a personal and communal level. Tune in next week to look back on the whole unit with us!

2020 Election Petition: Supreme Court bars Frank Davies from addressing Press Conferences
Politics February 1, 2021 Stephen
The Supreme court has advised a member of President Akufo-Addo's legal team, in the ongoing election petition case, Frank Davies to stay off Press conferences after court proceedings.
According to the apex court, the move offends the principles of the bar, where a Lawyer actively engaged in a case in court to address the Press in his full regalia.
Chief Justice, Anin Yeboah rather asked that such responsibility be left for other officials who are not directly involved with the case to handle.
The cross-examination of the Petitioner's chief witness, NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia is being continued today.
At the last sitting, Counsel for 1st Respondent took Mr. Asiedu Nketia through several questions, where on specific matters he stated he could not speak for the petitioner, while he persistently avoided questions relating to the strongroom saying he could not speak to matters that happened in the strong room because he was not there.
Also, the Counsel for 2nd Respondent started cross-examination by asking the witness whether he himself, the Petitioner, and other officials of the NDC granted interviews prior to the declaration of the 2020 elections and this was admitted.
On whether he had claimed in the press conference that the Petitioner had won the election by a certain margin, he stated he could not recollect which prompted the Counsel to seek leave to play the videos of the Press Conferences to him.
The Court enquired on the relevance of playing the videos and the Counsel informed the Court that it went to the credibility of the witness.
The Court consequently adjourned to Monday, 1st February, 2021 to play the video and assess its admissibility based on relevance.
Earlier at the last sitting, seven out of the 42 paragraphed witness statement by Johnson Asiedu Nketia in support of the petition by former President John Mahama were struck out by the Supreme Court.
The apex court took the action after a protest by lawyers of the 2nd respondent in the case – President Akufo-Addo.
The lawyers raised concerns with 10 of the paragraphs but after banter with the petitioner's lawyer, the court settled on seven.
Meanwhile, Mr. Asiedu Nketia claimed that the petitioner was in court to challenge some actions and inactions of the Electoral Commission but not to seek the declaration of another outcome of the polls.
"My Lord we are not in court to try to declare another presidential result by us [NDC], we are in court to challenge the performance of the constitutional duty of the first respondent [Chairpersonf of the Electoral Commission] and to assess whether that duty has been discharged faithfully," he said.

LETHBRIDGE, Alta — Despite rallying back from a 4-1 deficit in the second period, the Lethbridge Pronghorns could not find the back of the net in the third as they fall to the conference-leading Saskatchewan Huskies for the fourth l time this season, 5-4.
Saskatchewan's win further secures their place at the top of the Canada West Conference with a record of 19-3-1, while the Pronghorns fall to 7-13-2 as they fight off Manitoba for the sixth and final playoff spot.
Huskies starter Taran Kozun stopped 21 of 25 shots he faced, while Pronghorns netminder Garret Hughson made 36 saves in the loss.
After the type of game that played out on Friday night, the Pronghorns came out with a vengeance, fighting hard to win each battle. That determination would pay off early, as starting centreman Mike Grant would take off from the near-side boards in his own zone, going deep into the Huskies zone to fire a quick snapshot above the blocker of Kozun, giving the home side a 1-0 lead, 39-seconds into the game.
Despite the early marker, the momentum was fairly even over the next few minutes of play. However, Lethbridge's Spenser Jensen would interfere with a Saskatchewan player around the Hughson crease, sending the Huskies to their first power play. Fourteen seconds into the man-advantage, the very hot powerplay would strike again, as Logan McVeigh would net a wrist-shot past Hughson to tie the game.
The Huskies would begin to walk away with things from this point on, as they would score three more unanswered goals in the first period. On a power-play, McVeigh notched his second power-play goal of the game, assisted by Levi Cable and Sam Ruopp, giving the Huskies the lead. Assisted by McVeigh, Collin Shirley would score 32-seconds later, and Jesse Forsberg would score with the help of Kohl Bauml and Carter Folk less than two minutes after that.
Saskatchewan would tally four unanswered goals in the frame for a 4-1 lead and doubling Lethbridge on the shot clock 18-9 heading into the first intermission.
Period two would begin once again with the Pronghorns on the offensive, and Torrin White would eventually find himself on an odd-man rush with Ryan Chynoweth. White would opt for the rare mid-slot slapshot, and it would find the back of the net underneath Kozun's glove, to cut the Pronghorns' deficit by one goal.
The momentum would swing again in favour of the Huskies as Pronghorns forward Dalton Sward would take a High-Sticking penalty six minutes into the frame, but despite a very high press from Saskatchewan, the Lethbridge penalty-killers would stand tall and prevent any quality scoring chances on the net.
Lethbridge would see the momentum swing in their favour, as Saskatchewan would take two quick penalties that would give the home side a five-on-three power play. Following a time-out called by Coach Murray Nystrom, the Pronghorns would keep the puck in the zone, as Brooks Maxwell would feed Russ Maxwell to the right of Kozun and would find a lane to Justin Valentino, who pots the team's first power play goal of the weekend.
Less than a minute later, the Pronghorns would find themselves tying up the game off of a beautiful one-time pass at the home bench by Justin Valentino, redirecting Blake Orban's long clear to the slot for Brooks Maxwell, who would deke Kozun out and fire the puck glove-side to tie the game up at four.
A late goal by Michael Sofillas would restore the lead for the Huskies, who would head into the break leading by one goal. Saskatchewan would once again outshoot Lethbridge in the frame, this time more than doubling their opponent by 14-6.
The first half of the final frame would appear to be relatively uneventful on the scoresheet, but both teams would continue to press hard for the next goal. Both Kozun and Hughson would stand tall on a number of odd-man opportunities to keep their respective teams in the hunt for the win.
Both teams would see time on the power-play in the frame. Saskatchewan's Collin Shirley would sit two minutes, but Lethbridge could not capitalize on their chances to tie the game; and Pronghorns forward Jordan Roy would get two minutes as well, but the Pronghorns would fend off the red-hot Huskies power-play for the fourth time this game.
Hughson would head to the bench with just under two minutes remaining in the game, as the Pronghorns would try to force an overtime period. Unfortunately for the home side, a screening Torrin White would be called for roughing in front of the Huskies net, negating any chance of tying the game.
Final shots on goal were 41-25 in favour of the Huskies.
The Pronghorns will head out on the road next weekend in a crucial match up with the Manitoba Bisons in Winnipeg. The Pronghorns hold a six point lead on the Bisons for the final playoff spot. The Huskies will return home to host the UBC Thunderbirds.

Syracuse Orange Basketball Details
Hoops in the Carrier Dome with 33,000 of your closest friends. What better way to spend a winter night in Syracuse?
The Orange began their basketball history in 1900, and fielded their first varsity team in 1916-17. They rank among the top 10 all-time in wins and winning percentage, and have made more than 30 NCAA Tournament appearances.
One of those tourney berths resulted in a national championship. Behind freshman Carmelo Anthony, the 2003 Orange won their first title by defeating Texas and Kansas in the Final Four. Anthony was incredible in the semifinal victory, scoring 33 points and adding 14 rebounds. He followed that up with 20 points and 10 boards in the final, earning the Most Outstanding Player Award.
After many years as an independent, Syracuse became a founding member of the Big East Conference in 1979. During their Big East tenure, the Orange won 10 regular-season conference titles and five Big East Tournaments. They left the Big East for the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2013, establishing new rivalries with legendary programs such as Duke and North Carolina.
Through all this, the Orange were coached by 'Cuse alumnus Jim Boeheim, who took over the program in 1976. Boeheim – known for his suffocating 2-3 matchup zone defense – ranks among the all all-time leaders in wins by coaches.
The Carrier Dome is the largest on-campus basketball arena in the country, with a listed capacity of 33,000 for basketball. They can often squeeze in a few more people, though.

Artificial intelligence and algorithms can help tackle climate change, strengthen cybersecurity, and improve customer service, amongst all manner of applications.
On the other hand, limitations in fairness, safety and security together with a perceived lack of transparency and accountability means these technologies can damage the rights and interests of citizens, consumers and others and, as such, pose significant potential risks to the organisations that design, develop and deploy them.
As the adoption of AI and AI-related technologies become more mainstream, awareness diversifies and grows, public opinion consolidates and legislation hardens, the risks are likely to become more reputational in nature.
AI and algorithmic incident and controversy repository
Surprisingly little clear, objective, structured information and data exists in the public domain on the limitations, consequences and risks of artificial intelligence, algorithms and automation.
Accordingly, I have developed an independent, open repository of incidents and controversies driven by and relating to 'narrow' and 'general' AI and AI-related technologies across the world since 2012.
Detailing 450+ negative events, the respository is regularly updated. However, it does not claim to be comprehensive. It does not cover super-intelligence and related meta controversies.
Who uses the repository
The repository is used by researchers, academics, NGOs and policy makers for reference and research.
It is also used by business managers, risk managers, lawyers, reputation managers and others looking to deepen their understanding of AI risks, and to apply their findings.
How to use the repository
The repository is highly flexible and can be used for multiple purposes across a wide variety of settings.
These may range from conducting qualitative or quantitative research; predicting future trends; developing case studies; training and education; or developing and applying methodologies, frameworks and other products and services.
Real-world examples of its use include:
to develop and populate an AI incident database
to develop a public map of helpful and harmful AI across the world
to devise an AI legal response framework
to identify and assess the personal risks of AI
to analyse the reputational impact and risks of AI, algorithms and automation.
Terms and contributions
The repository is an open resource which anyone is free to use, copy and adapt under the terms of its license.
Accurate, fair and supportable contributions in English are welcome.

Seoul Spring 201899%IS-
SEOUL,October 19, 2017
by Monica Kim
Boon the Shop is a high-end concept store in Seoul's Cheongdam neighborhood, stocked with brands like Dries Van Noten and Raf Simons's latest for Calvin Klein. Yet this week, in the boutique's basement, 99%IS-'s Bajowoo staged a standout show, whose punk spirit felt distinctly antiestablishment. It's a juxtaposition that the Tokyo-based designer chose to create for Spring 2018, his second outing in his hometown of Seoul and his first after establishing a proper studio and showroom here. The floors were lined with black tarp and the runway was filled with scattered pools of water. Blue and green lights cast an eerie color on the space, meant to evoke dawn the day after a rainstorm.
Stepping through the glass doors, medieval court music played, gentle trumpets and lutes. The crowd was a mix of tattooed punks and businessmen in suits, along with friends like Akimoto Kozue and Sandara Park. Looking back at his archive, Bajowoo felt a bit tired of typical punk style tropes—the studded leather jackets he's long been known for—and decided to step in an entirely new direction, titling the lineup Make the Future Now. To an abstract percussive score by Hyuk Oh, a single man drifted down the runway, the hood of his black rain parka pulled and cinched entirely across his face. The second wore a neat red button-down and pants in the same waterproof nylon, a nod to punk coming through in the zippers running down the pant legs, though they were streamlined in black. The models walked with a slow, stuttered gait, as though they were diseased or had only just woken.

The jury is out on whether Facebook Live killed internet radio but I'm here to stand tall with internet radio. Facebook is something that we struggle to live with but would struggle to live without too.
Facebook is an incredible tool for communicating with family and friends worldwide, sharing news, promoting or reviewing music etc. But what does it lack? It lacks that feeling of community, the feeling of being welcome and knowing the people surrounding you have got your best interests at heart. Having a place to congregate daily, weekly or just on the odd occasion is something we have done since humans began. I'm not religious but the church is a great example of this.
Now, enjoying music by yourself is good but enjoying with others can make the experience a damn site better. Not just for you but for the DJs that spend hours behind the scenes curating music for your pleasure.
Now, when I log into Facebook, my news feed is inundated with DJ's streaming all over the world. I'll stop and listen, maybe for a minute or two, until I carry on with my daily scroll. I think I speak for many when I say that when I go onto Facebook, I look for cute dog memes or videos of crazy Russians climbing up skyscrapers. I don't go there to settle in and listen to music.
If I have a place online that I know I can go to in just as many clicks as Facebook. My church that plays live house music most hours of the day, where I feel welcomed and feel a sense of community. I'd rather be there hanging out with people rather than hanging out in Mark Zuckerberg's poor excuse for a community. I'd rather spend time with my chosen family.
We all live busy lives, some of us struggle to get out every weekend because of work, family or other commitments. Some of us live a million miles from each other and just popping round for a cup of tea or a beer isn't practical.
Hanging out with my chosen family wherever I am in the world, watching everyone on camera and chatting isn't dead. In fact, it's more accessible than it ever has been. Listening to the DJ's I love with the people I love, life doesn't get any better.
No matter what internet radio station it is, no matter what community it is, having a place to go is just good for the soul. The beauty of a chatroom is that people are real, yes they may say things that are not always right but they also say things that they would never say on Facebook. Where will you go when Facebook is gone? We've seen these places come and go before!
So, people come and go in the radio community, they join, they leave just like life outside of the internet. People move on to new pastures, it happens. It doesn't mean that it was time wasted or that we don't miss those people. I've built some incredible connections with people through internet radio, real personal connections, unlike Facebook. People in my chosen family have met here and started relationships, had babies, broke up, passed away, you name it it's happened.
There's been good times and hard times but why do I keep coming back? It's my base camp my little hideout, I feel welcome and I'm surrounded by real people. Where's your community? Who are they? If you don't have one, House Heads Radio welcome all walks of life... Especially the circus freaks!

We were lucky enough to employ Lise Howe in our search for a new home. Lise remained a tireless advocate throughout the 9 months of our house search and acquisition. Our house search took us from fixer-uppers in SE and NE Washington DC, to bungalows in Hyattsville and finally to a nice quaint home in Silver Spring. I can not count on my hands and toes combined the number of Saturday and Sunday afternoons that Lise spent showing us various arrays of properties throughout the DC metro area. I could imagine myself in Lise's shoes, and I would have not had endured with patience and kind demeanor so long. Lise is the consummate professional and a trusted advisor along the way.
In the boiling hot Spring / Summer market of 2014 we put down 4 offers before landing our winning bid. I can imagine that assembling the requisite paperwork is difficult enough for one offer, however Lise and her team were able to pull the offers together quickly, utilizing a shared document platform which makes signing a breeze. I was able to seamlessly share my documents throughout the process with my loan officer and any other parties involved.
When we finally did land a property where our offer was accepted our battle was far from over. We had a house that was sold in AS IS condition, however Lise aided us in negotiating certain repairs, a reduced price and seller paid closing costs. Beyond that, Lise personally advocated for those conditions to be completed to satisfaction before our closing. Leading up till closing, Lise held our hands through the home purchasing process and confidently answered all of our questions along the way.
Lise, thank you for your effort and expertise! We will value the fight that you gave to our family every time we walk through our front door.
