The formal curriculum at Inaburra follows the syllabi of the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA), which culminates in the award of the HSC at the end of Year 12. Inaburra has a strong tradition of academic excellence with the vast majority of students completing Year 12 and earning a HSC and an Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank.
Students have a varied program of learning in Years 7 and 8, where the following subjects are offered: English, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, Biblical Studies, Chinese (Mandarin), PDHPE, Information Technology, Technology subjects (covering food, wood, metal, design), Music and Visual Arts.
In Years 9 and 10 all students in NSW study the following mandatory subjects: English, Mathematics, Science, Australian Geography Civics and Citizenship, Australian History Civics and Citizenship, Physical Development, Health and Physical Education, Computer Skills and Biblical Studies. These years provide the opportunity for students to choose from a wide range of elective subjects. For their HSC, students select a minimum of 12 units of study in Year 11, and a minimum of 10 units in Year 12.
Inaburra has long recognised that in order to produce students equipped for 21st century jobs, the school's built environment needs to be flexible. The school has already begun the transition to more collaborative learning spaces designed for team teaching and flexible student groupings in the Senior campus. The newly opened world-class Stage 3 Learning Centre (for Years 5 and 6) continues this trend at Inaburra, placing emphasis on flexibility in structures and furniture to provide for changes in grouping mechanisms, technology use, and learning styles, where virtual conferencing, online learning and collaborative projects can easily take place. The Senior School Learning Commons is also newly completed, and is hugely popular for in-school and after-school study. Other features include a state-of-the-art 650-seat Performing Arts Centre, a digital TV Editing Suite with audio visual mixing rooms, a drama studio, extensive computing resources, gymnasium, circuit room and outdoor multi-purpose sport courts.
Sport: Inaburra offers a sports program that caters for all levels of athletic ability. The school has a long history of strong representation in the NSW Christian Schools Sporting Association (CSSA) and Combined Independent Schools (CIS) competitions at the state level. Elite athletes have also represented the school at the All Schools National Championships, the National Christian School Games and at the Pacific Games held every four years. Inaburra does not operate School sports on weekends.
Co-Curricular: Students are also given the opportunity to participate in co-curricular programs that are on offer throughout the week. These include: God Squad, Debating, Science Club, Entrepreneur's Club, Tech Crew, Dance Troupe and an extensive range of musical groups including our award winning A Capella Choir. Peripatetic music tutors are available to teach musical instruments or singing as individual lessons. The school stages a Musical Production every year, alternating between Junior and Senior schools. This is performed to the general public over three nights in the Performing Arts Centre.
The teaching staff in the Inaburra are professional, dedicated and dynamic Christian educators who hold a passion for developing the capacity of students throughout their educational journey.
Welfare: Our welfare staff are committed to the general well-being of students and supporting families. This includes transitional activities such as Orientation Camp for Year 7, parent seminars to assist in areas such as cyber safety and curriculum choices. Inaburra offers students the services of qualified counsellors if necessary across both Junior and Senior School.
Learning Enrichment: A highly professional and dedicated team are committed to supporting, extending and enriching students through their learning.
Peer-to-peer leadership: Students are encouraged to actively support other students, regardless of whether or not they hold leadership positions. Some of the more structured leadership activities include buddy programs, supporting Year 7 orientation and peer-to-peer tutoring.

Inaburra School unveils new learning spaces – the classrooms of the future
Inaburra School officially unveils its new learning spaces on Friday 21 July.
The Hon. Scott Morrison MP, Member for Cook and Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Australia, will unveil the new 4-storey building including a state-of-the-art Stage 3 Learning Centre for Years 5 and 6, a Senior School Learning Commons, additional facilities such as STEM room (for integrated Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics classes), a new glass-walled Principal's Office and Junior School sensory playground.
The new facilities form part of the ongoing transformation of Inaburra's built environment, recognising that in order to produce students equipped for the 21st century workforce, the School's learning environment needs to remain progressive, contextual and flexible.
"This is a major step forward in our desire to shape life-long learners who will contribute to society," said Principal, Mr Tim Bowden. "Our emphasis, however, is not the building itself but rather what students and teachers will experience within the four walls".
The need to remain 'ahead of the curve' in the education sector has been a major driver of this building project. "Current students will be required to adjust to a work environment that continues to be dynamic and ever-changing," stated Mr Bowden, "The future is as uncertain as ever and we are preparing our students for careers and roles that do not currently exist. After much investigation both locally and internationally we have leveraged elements of research and practice that we are confident will deliver an exceptional learning experience for students across the school".
THE STAGE 3 LEARNING CENTRE
The Stage 3 Learning Centre for Years 5 and 6 is designed to enable Stage-based teaching; there is one class with 112 students and five or more teachers. The large open-plan space is differentiated primarily through furnishing, creating smaller areas for groups to experience individual work, collaborative work and direct instruction in groups from ten to 112 students. Rather than a highly-structured and regulated classroom that aims for compliance, this space cultivates student engagement through the alignment of the furnished environment with the learning activity taking place. This might include virtual conferencing, flipped learning or collaborative projects. The Learning Centre also features a STEM/STEAM room for 'hands on' science experiments, technology workshops and MAKING (cooking, tinkering, model construction).
THE SENIOR SCHOOL LEARNING COMMONS
The Learning Commons is a space designed to bring together the functions of library, studio, individual study pods and seminar zones in a single community gathering place. Students in Years 7-12 can engage in self-directed, individual 'cave' or collaborative work and are able to exercise agency in their choice of location and furniture, whether selecting an individual desk, a booth, a high table or a communal lounge. Flexibility is the key, enabling each student to arrange their workspace in a way that facilitates the activity of the moment. The Commons provides an experience akin to contemporary tertiary education facilities. In dispensing with a traditional classroom structure the Commons encourages collaborative learning where staff adopt the role of mentor or coach rather than teacher.

The Commons also facilitates an in-demand After-School Study and Peer Tutoring Program that accommodates approximately 150 students Monday to Thursday each week.
"Both the Commons and Learning Centre have been furnished with a priority on flexibility, mobility and variety. Swivel chairs, semi-circular and rectangular tables, and lounges are all able to be easily deployed in a variety of configurations, as best meets the learning needs of the student," said Principal Tim Bowden.
NEW PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
Appreciating that the Principal's role is pivotal to the daily life of the School the decision was taken to move the Principal's office to the centre of the campus. The new location is highly visible to students as they move around the grounds, and has established the office as an active core and connection point for all members of the School Community. Glass walls allow students to see and be seen, they serve to make the Principal's role more transparent and physically incorporated into the fabric of the Inaburra learning community.
JUNIOR SCHOOL SENSORY PLAYGROUND
The new sensory playground is designed to encourage exploration and discovery. The open space includes organic features such as a water course, sand pit, step logs and rocks encouraging children to engage in similar play to that they would experience in the natural environment. Emphasis is placed on tactile, natural elements to engage students' fine and gross motor skills and capture their imaginations in a fun and interactive setting.
NBRS Architects were commissioned to undertake the project. Their multidisciplinary practice, substantial experience and extensive research were key elements in the successful delivery of the new facility.
Inaburra teaching staff love the 'elastic' design of the new learning environments which perfectly suit the use of mobile technology and which encourage students to personalise their learning experiences. Teachers are also benefiting, as the new spaces enable them to use a wider variety of teaching and learning strategies like flipped and blended learning, on-line classes, small group work and team teaching – all powered by high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the school.
In 2016 Inaburra was ranked among the 40 most innovative schools in Australia by education sector magazine The Educator, in its Innovative Schools Report. The opening of this new facility continues Inaburra's push to adopt progressive practices in its goal to establish a culture of world-class teaching and learning, where students are active participants in their educational journey.
The After-School Study and Peer Tutoring Program accommodates approximately 150 students for two hours Monday to Thursday each week.

Principal's Image
Welcome to the Inaburra community.
Since its beginning in the early 1980s, Inaburra School has built a strong reputation as a school of first choice in the Sutherland Shire and the surrounding areas. Inaburra continues to be a community in which every individual is known and loved – a place where every student is valued as a person made in the image of God. It is, first and foremost, a learning community in which staff and students learn with, and from, one another. While we seek to encourage all students to grow in their understanding, we recognise that students will need more than just knowledge and understanding to flourish today and into the future. They will need to become competent and confident learners, ready to learn, perhaps even unlearn and relearn, how best to engage in different activities throughout their lives.
Education at Inaburra, however, is not about ensuring that our graduates, as a consequence of developing their capacity to learn, are empowered to accumulate more resources over the course of their lifetimes. Our desire for our students is that they might become people of generosity rather than accumulation, humility rather than arrogance and compassion rather than self-importance. We seek to encourage our students to be generous in the classroom, humble enough to admit when they don't understand something and compassionately supporting their classmates who are struggling with a particular concept or idea. As a Christian school, our focus is on the development of learning character. Staff and students alike are encouraged to become people who are gracious, compassionate and self-controlled learners, ready, willing and able to be a blessing to those around them now and into the future.
You would be very welcome to come and experience for yourself the life and ethos of Inaburra School.
Dr James Pietsch became Principal of Inaburra School at the start of 2018. Prior to commencing at Inaburra, Dr Pietsch was the Dean of Professional Development and Learning at St Luke's Grammar School in Dee Why where he had previously been Head of Mathematics. He has also held positions as the Dean of Residents at New College at the University of NSW, and as a lecturer and tutor in educational psychology at the University of Sydney. He holds a doctorate in educational psychology and brings a wealth of experience in education and leadership to his role as Principal.

The Literary Gazette was a British literary magazine, established in London in 1817 with its full title being The Literary Gazette, and Journal of Belles Lettres, Arts, Sciences. Sometimes it appeared with the caption title, "London Literary Gazette". It was founded by the publisher Henry Colburn, who appointed the journalist and contributor William Jerdan as editor in July 1817. Jerdan wrote most of the articles and set the character of the magazine, as well as becoming a shareholder and eventually the owner. He retired in 1850, and the magazine ceased publication in 1863.
The format of the magazine was always essentially the same, each issue consisting of about sixteen pages typeset in three columns. Illustrations were rarely included. The periodical would feature several book reviews, with the leading article being a book review occupying two or three pages. Feature sections included "Original Correspondence" and a social column as well as notice of theatre productions. An "Original Poetry" section consisted of work sent in by the public, the poets being called "Correspondents", as well as some work by staff writers. Advertisements filled the last two pages, which were used by publishers to publicise books. The magazine also occasionally featured news of subjects of interest such as archaeological discoveries, inventions, art exhibitions, architecture and the sciences. William Paulet Carey and Walter Henry Watts acted as art critics.
At its peak from the 1820s until the end of the 1840s, The Literary Gazette had unprecedented power and influence. While the reviewers in the influential quarterlies tended to write political tracts rather than describing the book they were supposed to be reviewing, Jerdan as a professional journalist had no interest in promoting political ideology, and his practice was to include extensive quotations from the book being reviewed. This reading material attracted a mass audience who also appreciated the weekly publication giving "a spontaneity which the monthlies and quarterlies could not acquire" and the low price of only eight pence, with circulation reaching four thousand copies a week. A favourable review in The Literary Gazette meant almost certain success for writers and publishers, but a mixed review could be disastrous.

Emerging memories likely will find high-volume markets in embedded applications replacing NOR flash for storing code in MCUs and ASICs.
"At some point the door is going to close on NOR because of scaling issues, and all MCU and ASIC makers and their logic foundries will need a new non-volatile memory technology for code storage--whether it will be at 40nm or 14nm may depend on the foundry's logic process," said Jim Handy, analyst at Objective Analysis, who will give a market overview in the emerging memory program at Semicon West.
The challenge is that until the new memory technologies reach volume production, they will be more expensive. MRAM has an advantage because Everspin has been selling standalone chips for temporary immediate storage, Handy said.
For its part, GlobalFoundries is supporting embedded MRAM (eMRAM). "We're working with four of the five biggest makers of MCUs, and what they need after 40nm is a less expensive alternative to e-flash for FinFETs or FD-SOI, where the cost to add eFlash to a logic platform begins to increase dramatically," said David Eggleston, vice president of embedded memory at GF and another event speaker.
Eggleston notes that eMRAM is starting to mature and produce higher volume as GlobalFoundries, TSMC and Samsung enter risk production of different variations of eMRAM--FD SOI, bulk, and SRAM replacement, respectively.
GlobalFoundries has introduced a 22nm process with eMRAM and makes the Everspin 256-Mbit and Gbit standalone MRAM products. GlobalFoundries and TSMC have each demonstrated high-temperature performance for eMRAM to reassure automakers and industrial users that it will be capable of retaining data at high temperatures including through solder reflow at 260°C.
GlobalFoundries is also working with eVaderis, a design IP vendor, to supply an embedded MRAM design that reduces power consumption leakage. "Automakers have turned out to be most interested in eMRAM's ability to improve the power budget by reducing leakage compared to SRAM," said Eggleston.
Among other alternatives, "ReRAM has the advantage of scalability, since the difference between filament and no filament for 1 and 0 remains large enough to be measurable, even when closely packed," said George Minassian, chief executive of Crossbar Inc. who will provide a ReRAM update in the Semicon program.
Initial applications for ReRAM will be for embedded memory in logic, said Minassian. Crossbar devices are in qualification and verification with customers using conventional CMOS materials.
Microsemi recently licensed the Crossbar technology. In addition, the company is demonstrating a ReRAM chip for AI image recognition at the edge.
"ReRAM gets more interesting at smaller nodes where the simpler and potentially lower-cost devices that use diodes instead of transistors for selectors may compete on price for code storage with embedded flash," said Eggleston. "Although the stack itself is very simple, designing everything outside of the bitcell to manage the inherent variability is a struggle that has repeatedly delayed ReRAM introduction," he added.
The only commercial application for ReRAM so far appears to be Adesto Technology's conductive bridging memory (CBRAM). The radiation-hardened devices are used in surgical instruments that use X-ray sterilization, says Handy.
Ferroelectric FETs using high-K dielectrics are another alternative. They promise to halve costs of eMRAM or e-flash while offering low power and easy integration with logic, said Eggleston. But they still need improved endurance, so "FeFET remains an interesting R&D project," he said.
Fujitsu has produced older generation PZT FeRAM devices in high volume for subway fare cards, but the lead-based technology had some fab integration issues, Handy said. The newer hafnium-dioxide-based devices have the advantage of using a material already in high volume production in fabs, but the devices may have wear issues and endurance is currently extremely limited.
The session on new memory technologies also will feature speakers from Everspin, Imec and Spin Transfer Technologies.

There is freedom of the press in Finland. This means that the state cannot dictate what is said in the media, such as newspapers, television or websites.
Plenty of newspapers are published in Finland. Helsingin Sanomat is the largest subscription newspaper in Finland. Most newspapers are in Finnish. Some newspapers are also published in Swedish in some localities. In addition, Russian Spektr newspaper is issued in Finland.

First Official Review Of The Road Calls It The Most Important Movie Of The Year
Filed to:The Road
The first official review of Cormac McCarthy's big screen adaptation of The Road has been released, full of praise for the soul-crushing work of John Hillcoat and Viggo Mortensen.
We've heard that The Road was pushed back to this fall for many reasons, including being too depressing, and being primed for awards season.
Esquire Magazine is the first official outlet to screen and review the entire movie, and they can't say enough nice things about this awful movie. And of course, we mean "awful" in a the world is burned to a cinder, waters are poisoned, dirt is radiated, and there is nowhere to go post-apocalyptic way.
"It is a love story," Esquires Tom Chiarella eplains, "But to be clear, it's a love story about a father and a son hauling ass to keep from being eaten by small bands of flannel-shirted cannibals."
For those not familiar with the tale, the book follows a man and his boy as they trek across the wasteland that was our Earth. Heading to the coast, they have to protect themselves against dehydration, hypothermia, starvation, and cannibals looking for their next meal. Calling The Road bleak would be an understatement. And Esquire says the film fully lives up to the book:
...There was not a single stupid choice made in turning this book into this movie. No wrongheaded lyric tribute to the novel. No moment engineered simply to make you jump.
The article also reveals a first look at the new trailer for The Road, including explanations for what happened to Earth, with disaster clips and media blips. Which is taking pretty big liberties, since it sounds like the movie doesn't reference a reason for the tragedy, and neither does the novel. The director addressed this:
On the other side of the planet, at home in Australia, Hillcoat's been hearing about these trailers. "We're so conditioned by postapocalyptic films to be centered on a big event, and they become this high-concept thing. And here there's this total absence, this negation of explanation. We have to stay with that. So yeah. That's gonna be a challenge."
Hopefully the need to over-explain will be edited out of the final trailer... but probably not. Also, some of the imagery used in the film is from real-life disaster footage, which is quite brilliant yet even more terrifying than special effects:
"When they pass through a city, there's a shot of two ships sitting on a freeway that looks like a visual effect," Hillcoat explained to Esquire. "That is an actual IMAX 70mm shot taken days after Katrina. We had to doctor the image, grunge it up, make it more toxic, set it into our world, but these places were not hard to find. There's a fair amount of devastation already in the American landscape."
All in all the review is absolutely glowing, which gives me hope that this flick will do what was intended, crush your soul (and maybe lift you up just a tiny tad). If the review is accurate we should all leave the theater "feeling it in our chest plate," telling others to see it, yet unable to explain why. Which sounds exactly right - let's hope it's true.

"New USDA Mandate for Biofuels Should be Withdrawn" (Opinions, Editorials & Asides)
"When the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced its 'innovation agenda' to align USDA's resources, programs, and research to help the agriculture industry meet the 'climate demands of the future' the first reaction at Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) is that this looks and sounds far too much like more taxpayers subsidies for programs that already exist. According to an April 30, 2018 Government Accountability Office report, the Office of Management and Budget found $13.2 billion in climate change funding across 19 agencies in 2017. The GAO reviewed six agencies and found that 94 pct of their reported climate change funding went to programs that touch on, but aren't dedicated to climate change, such as nuclear energy research. The government should determine whether those are effective and consolidate or terminate ones that are not before creating costly new mandates and programs.
"The plan to reach 30 pct for biofuels in 2050 is especially troubling. The USDA's historic approach to 'market-driven blend rates' has been to aggressively pursue unachievable biofuel mandates that put manufacturing jobs at risk, result in more emissions and create a reliance on foreign fuels. Ethanol is cheaper than gasoline and does not need a mandate. If the USDA is truly interested in 'market driven' approaches, it should advocate eliminating the renewable fuel standard (RFS) so that renewable energy can economically compete on its own, rather than trying to promote mandates that drive quantities of ethanol-laced fuels that consumers may not want, while putting jobs at risk and raising costs at the pump. In fact, the blend rate is gradually increasing despite falling renewable identification numbers and small refinery exemptions. This shows that ethanol is economic on its own and that markets, not mandates, should determine our nation's fuel mix.
"Calling for a 30 pct biofuels goal for 2050 is not something that should be coming out of the Trump administration. It sounds like an objective of the $93 trillion Green New Deal which President Trump and every free market and taxpayers group including CAGW has said is both unachievable and devastating to the economy. The USDA should withdraw its proposal and the RFS should be eliminated."(Source: The Waste Watcher - Against Government Waste , 21 Feb. 2020) Contact: The Waste Watcher -Against Government Waste www.cagw.org

US GAO to Investigate EPA RFS Small Refinery Exemptions, "Hardship Waiver" Program (Ind. Report, Reg. & Leg.)
RFS,U.S. Government Accountability Office
On Capitol Hill, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has replied in the affirmative to a request from bi-partisan group of U.S House members led by Rep. Abby Finkenauer, (D-Iowa) -- Chairwoman, Subcommittee on Rural Development, Agriculture, Trade, and Entrepreneurship Committee on Small Business House of Representative -- urging the agency to examine the review and approval of small refinery exemptions (SREs), including the DOE's viability of scores for the 40 compliance year 2018 SRE applications that had been reviewed as of that date.
In its Jan. 10 reply, the GAO accepted the request as being within the scope of its authority and assigned Mark E. Gaffigan, managing director of Natural Resources and Environment to begin the investigation shortly.
"Granting more than 80 small refinery exemption waivers isn't just something this administration can sweep under the rug," Finkenauer said in a statement announcing the GAO investigation.
As previously noted, "hardship waivers" were intended for refineries producing 75,000 bpd or less and suffered "disproportionate economic hardship" from the costs of RFS compliance. The waiver frees the refineries from an obligation to provide the EPA with biofuels credits proving compliance. Under the now vanquished administrator Greg Pruitt's direction, the EPA handed out 54 exemptions over two years and not a single request for an exemption was denied. (Source: Office of US Rep.

The beleaguered financial adviser Convoy has taken legal action to seek damages from its executive director, Roy Cho Kwai-chee, and 27 others for the illegitimate diversion of funds that brought substantial losses to the company.
Convoy sought a declaration that Cho and his associates acted in breach of fiduciary and common law. All 28 defendants should pay damages, the amount of which was not given.
In a writ filed in the High Court yesterday, Convoy Global Holdings and its subsidiaries CSL Securities and Convoy Collateral also sought a court order to set aside the shares "wrongfully" allotted in a so-called circular financing scheme, which it alleged Cho spearheaded.
They also want to nullify the acquisition of shares by Kwok Hiu-kwan and Chen Pei-xiong, saying their acquisition was a "continuation of the alleged conspiracy." Most of the defendants were linked to the so-called Enigma Network, 50 companies which a market expert advised investors not to buy.
Nineteen defendants were listed as Cho's "associates." They include the four former executives earlier arrested by the Securities and Futures Commission and Independent Commission Against Corruption - former chairman Quincy Wong Lee-man, former vice chairman Rosetta Fong Sut-sum, former director Christie Chan Lai-yee, and former chief executive and Lerado Financial Group chairman Mark Mak Kwong-yiu.
In the writ, the company accused investor Cho of being the mastermind of a "circular financing agreement" which misdirected the company's funds in a 2015 placement.
Under the guise of raising capital for Convoy, Cho and his associates improperly used their power to allot shares and to grant loans on a commercially irrational basis. He involved "independent" placees to pay the subscription price only on condition that such payments would be directly or indirectly funded by Convoy itself.
The companies involved in the circular financing arrangement - all defendants in this case - were Ever Robust Holdings, China Green (Holdings), Classictime Investments and Fastek Investments. They were all linked to the Enigma Network - the 50 companies commentator David Webb said one must not own.
Of the HK$4.043 billion raised, almost HK$1 billion was channeled back to these placees under suspicious loans and margin arrangements.
Although Cho had no formal role in Convoy, the writ alleges he manipulated the company by appointing his associates to key positions. Among those "sweetened" with a high salary was the former chairman Wong, the writ alleged.
Cho was consulted by his associates using a secret e-mail address - financial9101@gmail.com - which, read backwards, would be the stock code of Convoy "1019," according to the writ.
The writ also alleged Cho and Mak diverted at least HK$45.5 million to an offshore private company which Wong, Fong and Mak collectively held.
Convoy paid HK$46.21 million to Gransing Securities for being the placing agent of its bonds. Without the Convoy board knowing, Gransing engaged the offshore company to be a sub-placing agent and paid it HK$45.5 million, the writ stated.
Fast forward to this year, Convoy claimed the acquisition of 37.17 percent of Convoy shares by Kwok and Chen was also problematic.
Their acquisition came with "peculiar" timing following the release of Webb's report on the Enigma Network, and after Cho was subjected to regulatory investigations from the middle of this year.
The acquisitions were "a continuation of the alleged conspiracy," the company said, pointing out that the amount closely matched that held by investors involved in Cho's circular financing scheme.
Kwok, the 27-year-old son of Kaisa owner Kwok Ying-shing, had called for a Convoy shareholders' meeting on December 29 to expel eight directors and to appoint five candidates of his choice.
In the writ, Convoy sought an injunction against Kwok and Chen, to restrain them of exercising their voting rights.
Also named as defendants were Ling Koon-wah, the managing director of PR Asia Consultants, a financial PR company which served as an agent for various Enigma companies; and Kevin Cho Kwai-yee, the brother of Roy Cho.
Kaisa Group released a statement saying the acquisition by Kwok Hiu-kwan was his personal investment and had nothing to do with Kaisa. Chen Pei-xiong was also not a staff member of Kaisa.

Nepal, India to settle border dispute within 4 years
Survey officials from Nepal and India have agreed to settle their bilateral border disputes within four years, including the construction, restoration and repair of boundary pillars and clearance of "no man's land" on both sides of the border.
Two prominent newspapers of Nepal — The Kathmandu Post and the Republica — carried news items in their Tuesday editions that a decision was taken at the end of December in the Indian city of Dehradun, according to which both sides have agreed to start field work in the border areas by the first week of February.
The inspection and field work will not cover the Susta and Kalapani sections that together total 40 km of the 1,751-km Nepal-India border. These sections are the most contentious boundary issues between the two neighbours and are being discussed at top bureaucratic levels.
During the visit of Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj last year July-end, Nepal and India had agreed to form a Nepal-India Boundary Working Group (BWG) and commence work in the field at the earliest for the construction, restoration and repair of boundary pillars including clearance of "no man's land" and all other technical tasks according to the terms of reference (TOR) to be agreed in the first meeting of the BWG.
The BWG — a new bilateral mechanism formed last year ahead of the visit of Swaraj — is a technical body at the surveyor general-level which replaced the joint technical level Nepal-India boundary committee formed in 1981 and ended its mandate in 2007 after preparing GPS-based boundary maps.
The field survey teams of both sides that will be dispatched in the first week of February are mandated to construct, restore and repair boundary pillars, carry out GPS observation of boundary pillars, develop modalities to address crossholdings and encroachment in no man's land and provide technical inputs to the higher level as required.
The field inspection team from the Nepali side includes the chief district officer, armed police force and officials from the survey department while the Indian side will be led by a district magistrate, Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) and border management officials.
Three separate teams will be mobilised on both sides of the border and will coordinate with other on disputed issues.
GPS maps prepared by both sides will be taken as the basis for the construction, restoration and repair of the boundary pillars.
Nepal and India had erected a total 8,553 pillars along the border, of which 1,325 are missing and 1,956 are either damaged or semi-damaged.

Museum of the Cathedral, Florence
Art history comes alive with light: ERCO in the Museum of the Cathedral in Florence
Client: Opera di Santa Maria del Fiore, Florence / Italy
Lighting design: Massimo Iarussi, Florence / Italy
Photography: Dirk Vogel, Dortmund / Germany
Place: Florence
Website: www.museumflorence.com
Project in Google Maps
The Museum of the Cathedral in Florence, which recently reopened after a huge expansion project that doubled its dimensions, hosts the world's greatest collection of sculptures of Florentine Middle Ages and Renaissance. Its architecture and artworks are perfectly staged thanks in no small part to ERCO light enhancing their artistic quality.
Officially known as "Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore", Florence Cathedral is one of the most iconic and popular tourist attractions in Italy. Every year, around 1.4 million people visit the "Duomo", which was built between 1296 and 1436 and includes the adjoining Baptistry. As well as these two monuments, the cathedral complex today includes the Museum of the Cathedral, or "Museo del Opera di Santa Maria del Fiore", founded in 1891. Devoted to the history of the Florentine landmark, its design and interior bear the signatures of great Italian artists such as Giotto, Brunelleschi, Ghiberti, Donatello and Michelangelo, whilst giving as much attention to the many sculptures made specifically for the cathedral.
The centrepiece of the Florentine Museum of the Cathedral, the "Salone del Paradiso", is dominated by a spectacular, full-scale model of the Cathedral's medieval façade.
The model integrates many well preserved statues in their "original" location. The diffused natural light is complemented by accent light from Parscan projectors focused on the sculptures.
Florentine sculpture in ERCO light
After two years of intense restoration and enlargement, managed by Florentine architects Guicciardini & Magni Architetti, the beautifully refurbished museum is today a major tourist attraction and another feather in the cap of the Tuscan art metropolis. This is thanks in no small part to another artist, Massimo Iarussi, who left his mark with a skilfully executed lighting design that does justice in every respect to the world's greatest collection of sculptures of Florentine Middle Ages and Renaissance on display here. His sophisticated lighting concept is based on ERCO lighting tools that once more demonstrate brilliance, precision and efficiency. To present close to 750 works covering nearly 6,000sqm of exhibition space in just the right light, the museum's 25 halls were equipped with a total of 1,500 ERCO lighting tools in 50 different configurations. The main protagonists are spotlights from the Parscan and Pollux ranges, used with different wattages and a variety of light distributions. In some places, Iarussi deployed Quintessence and Skim downlights, Optec and Pantrac spotlights as well as Lightscan outdoor projectors. All luminaires emit warm white light at 3000K.
The hall, which extends across three floors, is filled with natural light from several skylights, evoking an outdoor environment that befits the displayed works.
Several Parscan projectors illuminate individual or groups of sculptures from different angles to avoid harsh shadows.
Individual lighting, differentiated by context
Director Monsignor Timothy Verdon explains the significance of light in his museum this way: "Lighting is a major component to the overall experience of artwork in any museum. But when your collection consists almost entirely of sculptures, light management is absolutely critical to the presentation. Because whilst paintings invariably require uniform, glare-free illumination, the three-dimensions and shadow zones of statues and reliefs call for differentiated lighting influenced by the periods in which they were created, their artistic style and their original context."
The wisdom of his point is brought home particularly well by the centrepiece of the presentation, the breathtaking "Salone del Paradiso" (Hall of Paradise), which extends across three floors and is illuminated with light coming from the skylights. The spectacular dimensions of this light-infused interior evoke an outdoor environment that makes it ideal for the presentation of artwork originally created for the exterior, such as the celebrated bronze doors of the Baptistry, designed by Lorenzo Ghiberti in the first half of the 15th century. However, the hall is dominated by a spectacular, full-scale model of the Cathedral's medieval façade, which was never completed and ultimately dismantled. Faithfully reconstructed, many of the preserved statues and reliefs were integrated into the model and returned, as it were, to their original location. The diffused natural light in this space is complemented by accent light from powerful Parscan projectors focused, from different angles, onto the object and the individual sculptures.
Illuminated sensitively and effectively, the poignant sculpture of Mary Magdalene is one of the most expressive of Donatello's works.
A separate hall is dedicated entirely to Michelangelo's "Pietá Bandini". The light coming from above directs attention onto the central element of this group of figures.
Whilst producing a homogeneous overall appearance, the lighting emphasises the unique aspects of each individual sculpture.
Light from different angles is used to accentuate the artistic quality of the sculpture.
Light directs attention
Meanwhile, the lighting in the "Sala della Maddalena", another masterpiece of the museum, is entirely different. Here stands Donatello's poignant sculpture that once graced the interior of the Cathedral, the Penitent Saint Mary Magdalene. In the darker room, the statue is contrasted with directional light, to further emphasise its dramatic features. A similarly evocative concept is found in the room dedicated as "Tribuna di Michelangelo", where the only exhibit is the unfinished Pietà Bandini, a late work by the legendary Renaissance master. Here, the height of the room is exploited to simulate a "divine light" coming from above to illuminate the sculpture, urging the visitor to focus on the central element of this group of figures, the body of Christ.
Perfectly executed lighting turns the huge model of the dome into a compelling eye-catcher whilst making a point of its striking design.
The lighting sets off the ornamental frieze on the wall from its dark surroundings with almost surgical precision.
The light directs the attention and urges the visitor to read the stories carved in stone.
The potential of modern lighting design
Throughout the museum, the designers installed highly creative lighting solutions, each precisely crafted to enhance the dramatic effect of the exhibits, whilst reinforcing in compelling detail the harmony of form and content, with emphasis on their aesthetic and didactic values. Light in the Florentine museum, more than elsewhere, creates an experience that demonstrates in an exemplary fashion – without detracting attention from the exhibits – the potential of modern lighting design. The wide variety of ERCO lighting tools, designed to enable combination in any configuration, provided a solid base for implementation of this sophisticated lighting concept. At its heart, however, it derives its compelling character from the brilliance of ERCO light and the precision of ERCO LED technology, to the delight of experts and the public alike.
An exemplary exhibition arrangement combined with precise lighting design gives voice to the exhibits.
Even less prominent objects draw interest thanks to coherent lighting that emphasises aspects such as the face of Christ.
The exquisite chest, lavishly adorned with imagery and ornaments, appears to shine from within.
ERCO lighting tools virtually seem to bring this dead stone to life. Precisely arranged lighting encourages the visitor to explore the remarkable wealth of detail of the statue.

Morgan looked over the bookshelf. "I know she has it," she said. Becca and Jenny just watched as Morgan flitted around the room, searching the bookshelves. "Aha," she finally said, pulling a large, brown book out. She dropped it onto the desk. "Here we are," she finished.
Morgan looked up, hands on hips. She nodded her head. "This is what you need," she said, looking at Becca.
"What is it?" Becca asked, curiously.
"See, there was supposed to be a rhythm to this dance," Morgan began. "But it got all wonky. Something happened that messed it all up," she finished. She walked around the desk and grabbed each of the girls hands making an almost circle. She closed her eyes and began whispering. Becca and Jenny looked at each other and back to Morgan as she continued. The words were too quiet to be distinguishable, but Becca could feel a certain buzz to the room. The heat rose around them and before long, she was sweating.
"I suppose so," Morgan said. She looked at Jenny and then to Becca. She turned to the desk where she had sat her hand bag. Opening the big handles she rummaged inside until she pulled out two small cards. "Who even carries these anymore?" she asked lifting them up in the air and waving them around, but Becca was sure it was a rhetorical question. She handed one card to Becca and one to Jenny. The girls looked at the card. Spirals of aqua and deep blue swirled around in a glittering resembling a galaxy. Intermixed was the name Morgan Breseachey and a phone number. Nothing else was on the card.
"Please call when you are ready," she said. Then she draped the handles of her bag over her arm and walked out of the house.
Becca went to Aunt Jo's desk. She placed her hand on the cover of the book. It was leather, hardcover, appeared to be lumpy, and the pages extruded out in a pile of randomness. She opened it. "This is her spellbook," she said as she began turning the pages. The words were all handwritten. Some had been added after the fact. There were stains on some of the pages and included were various plants and herbs.
"I mean, why else would she have this giant book?" Becca asked, but she knew the spells worked. She had been there when Aunt Jo worked with them before. She remembered her scribbling little notes in the margins. Her fingers ran the length of some of those scribbles as she was transported to a time when Aunt Jo let her assist.
"Now," Aunt Jo said pointing to the recipe on the page. "It says to add a teaspoon of cinnamon, but last time that wasn't enough," she tapped Becca on the nose. "I think we will double that," she said. She put an X over the 1 and made it a 2. She picked up the bowl of cinnamon and measured out two teaspoons, dropping them into the cauldron. Smoke billowed up and they both took a step back, Aunt Jo pushing Becca behind her.
"You okay, Becca," she heard Jenny say and it brought her back to the present moment.
"You zoned out there for a minute," Jenny continued.
"I guess I did." Becca didn't elaborate on what she had been thinking about.
Jenny began flipping through the pages. Becca was wrapped up in her thoughts. She remembered how Aunt Jo had been treated, but she also remembered how much joy she found in the time spent with her. She remembered the smile on Aunt Jo's face. It was real and full. It was authentic, not like the ones she would see on her own mother's face, or her father's. The ones full of fakeness and revenge.
Jenny looked up with her and she saw the smile on her face. The one that was youthful and energetic. "Let's do one," she said.
Becca smiled back and nodded.

[ARCHIVED] Support from the Sidelines
Their shoe sizes vary as much as their skill levels, but every athlete inside Mustang-Panther Stadium on Wednesday, March 22 proved their worth, dedication, and abilities at the annual Special Olympics track and field events hosted by GCISD.
Hundreds of athletes from Grapevine, Colleyville, and surrounding cities competed, while friends, family members, coaches, classmates, and city leaders cheered them on inside Mustang-Panther Stadium.
Ten Grapevine Police Officers showed their support, shouting encouragement and clapping from the sidelines, and even posing for pictures with athletes. Many also participated in the Opening Ceremony Torch Run, walking (or in some cases running) alongside the athletes passing the torch. Grapevine Police Chief Eddie Salame accompanied the very first Torch carrier on the track. Chief Salame also helped time many of the events, offering high-fives to each competitor.
Grapevine City Manager Bruno Rumbelow also timed some of the track events; he spent the rest of the games cheering on athletes at the finish line, as did GCISD Superintendent Dr. Robin Ryan.
Grapevine Police Officer Chad Hale cheered on athletes for the entire competition, then got ready for his next Police shift. Ofc. Hale was in the "Circle of Friends" club in Keller in High School, where students initiate and nurture friendships with classmates who have disabilities; he says he always looks forward to watching the Special Olympics.
Grapevine Police Officers are lucky in that the City and community members are always ready and willing to cheer on officers for a job well done. Times like this -- it's nice to be the cheerleaders for a change! Great job to all of the athletes!

Ethics and the economist
FascismJune 17, 2006
A COUPLE of columns ago, I wrote about Amartya Sen's Identity and Violence: The Illusion of Destiny. The time has come to pay tribute to its author.
Amartya Sen is one of the foremost public intellectuals of our time. "I've always liked arguing with people," he once told me. Appropriately enough, he was born (in 1933) on a University campus, that of Rabindranath Tagore's Vishwa-Bharati, in the West Bengal village of Santiniketan. It was Tagore who prophetically chose the name Amartya ("immortal") for the only other Bengali who has so far emulated his Nobel Prize. Sen won it (in 1998) in economics, though, as his writings demonstrate, he could just as convincingly be described as a sociologist, a historian, a Sanskritist, a political analyst or a moral philosopher.
Lifelong interests
Identity and violence are lifelong interests. At the age of 11, Amartya saw a bleeding Muslim labourer, Kader Mia, stumble into his Hindu family's home after being knifed in a communal riot; the man had only ventured into the "wrong" neighbourhood because he needed work to feed his family. Kader Mia was rushed to hospital by Amartya's father, but died. Economics, politics and morality intersected in that tragic episode, indelibly marking Amartya Sen's growing mind.
Initially, like virtually every Calcutta collegian, Sen's politics was leftist, but it was leavened by an abiding faith in freedom and an early interest in philosophy. His pioneering work as a "technical economist" in welfare economics and social choice theory (how the wishes of a society can be aggregated from the diverse views of its members) was cited by the Nobel Committee. But he has become better known to a wider audience for his work on famines (in particular the proposition that there has never been a famine in a functioning democracy) and on "development as freedom", which argues compellingly that it is more important to be free than to be rich, and that different kinds of freedom — political, economic and social — enrich and reinforce each other.
Concern for the marginalised
Sen's concern for the impoverished, undernourished and marginalised, especially women, comes through strongly in his writing. His Nobel Prize money has largely gone to two trusts he founded, one each in India and Bangladesh, focusing particularly on education and healthcare for the poor. The Nobel citation also lauded his restoration of "an ethical dimension to the discussion of vital economic problems". Though he says he is not interested in the philosophy of economics, a profound moral sense is never absent from his prose.
Nor is his pride in our country's rationalist, scientific, mathematical and secular heritage. The son of a professor of soil chemistry, he vividly recalls going to the lab with his father, "testing hypotheses, seeing whether experiments worked out or not". That "scientific spirit of enquiry", he says, has its roots in ancient India. His previous book, The Argumentative Indian, cites 3500-year-old verses from the Vedas that speculate sceptically about creation, and details India's contributions to the world of science, rationality and plural discourse, fields treated by Orientalists as "Western spheres of success".

Military Brats Dream, Take Action, and Make it Happen!
I'm currently employed as a police officer with the Renton Police Department in WA. After graduating in May 2015 I moved back home with my parents and began the interview process. Between the tests, interviews and the lengthy background check my hiring process took the entire summer. I started working in October and am currently at the Police Academy now. I graduate Mid April then I'll be on the road. I'm loving my new job and am learning a lot, I'm extremely happy that I chose to go into law enforcement and I look forward to a long and fulfilling career.
What Military Brat characteristics helped you achieve your college goals and how?
I think the biggest characteristic that helped me succeed in school and is now helping with my current job is adaptability. As a military child one of the things you learn right off the bat is how to adapt quickly and thrive in different environments. The ability to adapt has led me to where I am today, it made college easier, it helps me solve problems, and I know that it's something that will be extremely valuable as a police officer on the streets. I'm extremely grateful for my experience as a military child, it helped shape my childhood in a positive way and it's continuing to contribute to my success as an adult.
What advice would you give to Military Brats preparing for college?
I would say to be excited for this new experience and don't take anything for granted, especially your family. Being a part of a military family is an experience unlike any other, you've made it this far with multiple moves, different communities, new friends, etc. Just keep in mind how much your family has supported you and made your success possible. Moving away from my family made me appreciate them even more and realized how much they've sacrificed for me over the years. There are a lot of changes associated with beginning college, take them in stride, and enjoy every moment.
How are you celebrating the Month of the Military Child?
I plan on spending some time reflecting on all my different experiences associated with being a military child. There's definitely been some hard times but the good times definitely outweigh them. I also plan on letting my family know how much I appreciated them and how solid of a foundation they have been to me over the years, it's something that I probably don't tell them enough and they deserve to hear it.

EMM ~ Judge Me
"The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud."
― Coco Chanel
I will say it again! I am sick of the media and their constant analytical spin about this election coming up for President and all I want is that it is over with. Let's move the "F" on!
My featured guest tonight is a sexy brilliant young singer, songwriter, EMM with her Single/Musicvideo released in February 2016 – titled "Judge Me". She is brand new to the music indutry, folks, with a million hit musicvideo. Did I tell you she is sexy as hell with a silky smooth voice, with range and balance! Oh! Yes, she can sing a little something, something.
I discovered this beautiful fresh new talent when she sent a twitter follow request and during my duiligence process I came accoss her video and was blown away. Yes, I accepted her friendship request.
"Judge Me"- was written, produced, recorded and mixed by EMM. Grab the song on

BTS by Eric Michael Espiritu:
The genre is R&B/pop and it was uploaded on to YouTube, Feb 14, 2016 by EMM.
Biography from her Facebook page
So, what happens when a classically trained young girl from a tiny Michigan town faces big hardships in the Big Apple and then enters the fast-paced pop music world of Los Angeles?
Well, EMM has taken everything she's learned and brought it into this landscape, crafting some unforgettable and uplifting songs along the way. In short, she's ready for her own kind of revolution.
EMM couldn't help but immerse herself in music. Born to a classical harpist mother and opera singer father, she discovered what she would do for the rest of her life very early on. That decision even preceded her birth. "My mom played a five-hour gig on the day I was due," her eyes light up. "I was literally right up against her harp, and I was on stage with her hundreds of times before I was even born. I think that's why performing feels so natural."
Between piano lessons and actually writing her own songs, a six-year-old EMM would fall asleep in orchestra pits, while waiting for her father to finish teaching at the esteemed Interlochen Center for the Arts. Her parents imparted a deep technical understanding and appreciation for all things classical as she picked up composition by herself. The Norris clan spent two Christmases performing a family show on Regent Seven Seas cruises giving the kids a familiarity with the stage. However, she had a pivotal revelation in 2006.
"I saw Beyoncé perform 'Ring the Alarm' on the VMAs," she recalls. "She totally owned the stage. It was that moment when I decided that would be me someday. I was immediately obsessed with becoming the absolute best performer possible."
Keeping up with her training, she simultaneously fell in love with everybody from Mariah Carey to Whitney Houston and developed her own voice. As a result, she approaches music from a different angle, possessing the ability to compose every aspect of a song from the instrumentation to the lyrics. Winning numerous state competitions for classical music, EMM picked up a guitar and taught herself how to play. Every bit of money she earned she saved and put towards professional studio time. She even managed to not only learn the recording program Logic but to become extremely well-versed in it. It got to the point where everybody in the studio affectionately referred to the budding artist and producer as "the prodigy kid".
Through family friends with industry ties, she made her formal entry into the music business in 2009 at merely 16-years-old. Being promised various deals and opportunities, she finished high school early and moved to New York under the auspices that her career would "go big". However, nothing went as planned. Promises were broken, and disappointment struck as she tirelessly worked on music. She sacrificed constantly and constantly only to be greeted by real hardship.
The harsh reality of the Big Apple hit her hard as she even was terrifyingly mugged one winter evening deep in Harlem a block from where she lived at the time. She had no choice but to hole up at home and focus on writing songs. Channeling into those trials and tribulations, the music provided a catharsis for her, possessing to power and strength. She'd make trips by herself to meet and work with different producers including Tim and Bob and Jason Gilbert everywhere from Miami and Chicago to Washington D.C. by herself. The dream hadn't materialized yet though.
"I had my heart broken more than a few times," she affirms. "I always knew deep down inside that I was supposed to keep going, so I did."
In 2012, she traded a cold New York for sunny Los Angeles. At the urging of her mom, she made a short performance video. It eventually was circulated amongst numerous high-level industry executives and tastemakers.
After moving to Los Angeles to build her team, EMM crafted her first full mixtape, "Burning in the Dark." She took on the task of doing all of the producing, songwriting, vocal arrangement, recording and mixing for the project. She built and performed several shows, including playing the Staples Center, and Dodger Staduim. She now continues to build her social media and has millions of views on her empowering and inspiring videos. In typical EMM fashion, she still fights to turn her struggles and hardships into stories of empowerment and encouragement for her fans. After observing EMM's talent in action, one thing is clear: its only the beginning of the "EMMpire." Her best, most powerful, and most engaging work is still ahead. To EMM, when you ask the difficult question, "What would you do if you weren't afraid?" her answer appears to be, "Just watch."
Emm - Judge Me
You saw I was weak
You used, manipulated me
I was born in the dark
I was swallowed by light
I gave into you when I fell into the night
Now the ground where I walk
Oh the devil has trod
I called out to you
Shoulda called out to GOD
Oh I always wanted you
And I hate you but I love you
And I wish that you were dead
But I wish you were inside me
And it's dark inside this head
Don't you judge me,
You don't know where I have been
[Lyrics from: https:/lyrics.az/emm/-/judge-me.html]
Won't you love me
You were never sober
And I should've known you'd fuck me over
And I worshipped your body like
Venus and the sun
Now look what I've become...
Lord, why did you bring me here tonight?
Even I can see we're out of light...
And Lord I wanted this man to be my life
And I was ready to be his wife
Wife, his wife
His wife, his wife...
I hope you like this selection as much as I do and have a blessed evening or morning. Thank you for your continued support. Remember music is a language and these are my thoughts tonight.
Peace and Love always

Central exact sequences of tensor categories, equivariantization and applications. (English) Zbl 1311.18009
J. Math. Soc. Japan 66, No. 1, 257-287 (2014).
This article is built on the previous work of the authors [Int. Math. Res. Not. 2011, No. 24, 5644–5705 (2011; Zbl 1250.18005)]. The main idea of this sequence of works is to obtain analogues for tensor categories of the relation between exact sequences of groups, or more generally Hopf algebras, and extensions of these objects. The main result of this paper characterizes the exact sequences of (finite) tensor categories that correspond to equivariantizations, which are an important tool in constructions and classifications of fusion categories.
An exact sequence \( \mathcal{C}' \longrightarrow \mathcal{C} \overset{F}{\longrightarrow} \mathcal{C}'' \) of tensor categories is an equivariantization exact sequence, if it is equivalent to one of the form \(\mathrm{rep}(G) \longrightarrow (\mathcal{C}'')^{G} \longrightarrow \mathcal{C}''\), where \(G\) is a finite group scheme that acts on \(\mathcal{C}''\) and \( (\mathcal{C}'')^{G}\) is the corresponding equivariantization.
By considering the adjoint of the functor \(F\), an exact sequence induces an algebra in \(\mathcal{C}\) that lifts to an algebra in the center \(\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C})\) and the sequence is called central if the two categories of modules are equivalent under the forgetful functor \(U: \mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C}) \longrightarrow \mathcal{C}\). Central exact sequences are shown to be equivalent to an associated normal Hopf monad being exact and cocommutative and to equivariantization exact sequences. The authors give two proofs of this statement and thereby connect to yet another characterization of equivariantization in [P. Etingof et al., Adv. Math. 226, No. 1, 176–205 (2011; Zbl 1210.18009)].
As applications, central exact sequences for Tambara-Yamagami categories are considered and the authors give sufficient criteria for recognizing tensor functors that fit into an equivariantization exact sequence.

One in five teenagers failed to get a single A*-C grade GCSE - for boys, the figure was one in four.
The full government figures are available here.
The state education system is failing to provide enough children with a good, rounded education.
The state education system is particularly failing poorer children, who perform far worse than the average.
The state education system is failing despite education spending doubling in the last decade.
Without major change the state education system will continue to fail no matter how much money is spent on it.
The state education system is failing because it is managed by politicians who lack experience of managing large organisations, lack detailed knowledge and experience of education and are in their posts for too short a time.
Returning control over education to civil society, as is done in Sweden, the Netherlands and others, will improve outcomes, especially for the poorest children. Politicians should set high-level education policy, such as the level of taxpayer funding and the number of years of compulsory education, and leave the rest to parents and teachers, who will make a much better job of it.
