AUCKLAND, New Zealand (AP) — Allrounders Doug Bracewell and Scott Kuggeleijn joined forces to lead New Zealand to a 35-run win over Sri Lanka in a one-off Twenty20 on Friday and a clean sweep of the tourists across all formats.
Kuggeleijn then took 1-26, Bracewell 1-19, and both held two catches as New Zealand bowled out Sri Lanka for 144 in 16.5 overs.
Paceman Lockie Ferguson took 3-31 and legspinner Ish Sodhi 3-30 as New Zealand pulled back Sri Lanka which was well ahead of the run rate for much of its chase.
New Zealand previously beat Sri Lanka 1-0 in a two-test series and 3-0 in a three-match one-day international series.
Kuggeleijn, who followed his father Chris as a New Zealand player, and Bracewell, also the son of a former international — fast bowler Brendon — both emerged as genuine allrounders in limited-overs cricket with their performances on Friday.
New Zealand made a poor start after losing the toss and being sent in, losing Martin Guptill (1) in the first over, Tim Seifert (2) in the second, Henry Nicholls (4) in the third and Colin Munro (16) in the fourth to be 27-4.
Veteran Lasith Malinga, in possibly his last match in New Zealand, and youngster Kasun Rajitha both took two wickets in their opening spells.
When Mitchell Santner was out for 13 in the 10th over, New Zealand was 55-5 at the midpoint of its innings.
A competitive total seemed unlikely as the New Zealand batsmen struggled on a drop-in pitch which offered good bounce and on which the slower ball was often effective.
But Ross Taylor (33) put on 47 with Bracewell in a sixth-wicket stand, which helped to repair the innings, then Bracewell took charge with a bright innings which included one four and five sixes in his first match for New Zealand in a year.
"I got going with (Taylor) and managed to get a few away, and then (Kuggeleijn) on debut was outstanding," Bracewell said.
"The boys all sort of chipped in with a few wickets there."
Kuggeleijn joined Bracewell and hit 35, which included one four and four sixes, in a partnership of 41. He added a further 36 with Tim Southee (13) to lift New Zealand to a total which was close to par on Eden Park.
Sri Lanka made a blazing start to its reply with Niroshan Dickwella hitting a four and six from the first two balls of its innings. He blasted Sri Lanka to 29-1 after only two overs.
The tourists remained well ahead of New Zealand's run curve, reaching 52-3 after five overs and 95-4 after 10.
Big-hitting Thisara Perera looked likely to lead Sri Lanka to victory as he raced to 43 from 24 balls with two fours and three sixes. He worked well in partnerships with Kusal Mendis and Dhanajaya de Silva.
But Ferguson returned to dismiss Perera and de Silva in one over and Sri Lanka's effort petered out.
"I thought we did really well in the bowling part, but in the last overs we gave away a few too many runs," Malinga said. "I still feel that in the batting part we didn't understand how to win the game."


At mid-November, from 11th to 16th 2012, Slobozia Conachi Secondary School gladly welcomed her guests from abroad, 32 teachers and pupils from Spain, Turkey and Poland, reunited in the 1st project meeting from the calendar of mobilities of the Comenius Multilateral Project " Literacy Skills Development Through Nature Poetry Rediscovery- Indoors and Outdoors". The major objective of the project, funded by The Lifelong Learning Programmes, is the setting up of a cooperation framework among European schools in order to raise the quality of education processes, based on modern teaching strategies, innovative learning environments and new pedagogical tools for developing literacy skills of secondary pupils.
Invited at the official opening of the meeting project, Mrs. Liana Bucur, school inspector for European projects, pointed out the relevance of the project topic and the complexity of the activities, emphasizing the role of school partnerships in the professional and institutional development of the beneficiaries. She also appreciated the involvement of the entire local community in this project. Indeed,we gladly received the support of numerous parents, of Mayor Ion Neculau and Bishop Ionut Glavan.
The topic of the project, relevant for all partner schools, was a generous opportunity, during the project meeting that our school hosted, for an important exchange of good practices in teaching and learning descriptive texts, and also for dynamic activities for pupils, that envisaged a crosscurricular approach of literacy skills.
The rich agenda of the meeting comprised a seminar dedicated to a comparative analysis of the European education systems represented, and two workshops for teachers, during which the participants identified the similarities and the differences among the policies of development of literacy skills in the participant countries. During the workshops, important aspects of the teaching/learning/evaluation processes were also discussed after the lesson observation sessions in the 3rd day of the meeting.Deputy School Inspector General, Mrs. Diamanta Bulai, accompanied by school inpector for school management, Mrs. Monica-Iuliana Novetschi, underlined the importance of such cooperation meetings at European level, performed in Galati schools, enabling a higher quality level of education and demonstrating openness to practice exchanges in education.
The pupils, organised in mixed groups, in order to facilitate interknowledge and teamwork, performed lecture sessions of poems, representative of their own nations, translated in English, that were later used to create drawings and collages of nature elements, collected during a village sightseeing.
Another important objective of the project meeting was to familiarize pupils with the lifestyle of the Romanian pupils, for which school represents a lot, in order to discover the socio-cultural particular aspects of the participants. The guest-pupils were invited to observe and to get involved in activities performed by teachers, in most of the school subjects we teach in the school.
The project meeting also aimed at consolidating cooperation among project coordinators in order to perform efficient activities for the next two years. Therefore, during the project management sessions, clear responsibilities and deadlines were set for the next meetings, with a special attention to the creation of end products.
After 4 days spent in our school, accompanied by a tempting sun, we set off on a visit of cultural documentation on Prahova Valley, to discover the mystery of a ruler, famous all over the Europe, but,especially, to put face to face landscape images taken from Romanian nature poets and the special poetry of real nature landcapes, touched by a late-autumn. There,"outdoors", any line pupils read had a special tone, and got new meanings, because pupils and teachers felt closer to one another, collaborators and friends, appreciating the opportunity of cooperation in European education environment.
Project coordinator, Headteacher Lucica Florea Translated version of the article " Dezvoltarea competentelor de citit-scris" that was published in the magazine " Scoala Galateana" ( "Galati Teachers' Magazine"), in January 2013.

Spice Market - Egyptian Bazaar
Spice Market is one of the most important historical and touristic trade centers of Istanbul. It has maintained its characteristic of being one of the important trade centers in every period with the effect of being a port city since its establishment, hosts thousands of visitors every day, especially domestic and foreign tourists.
In 1597, Safiye Sultan, who was the wife of Sultan Murat III, order the construction of the New Mosque, which is now next to the Spice Market. The Ottomans had a particular way of building imperial mosques. The imperial mosques were not just worship centers but also community centers, including many buildings serving different purposes. One of those buildings would be covered bazaars. The Spice Market is part of the complex building of the New Mosque. The construction lasted about 67 years, and the inauguration was in 1663.
The History and Name of the Spice Market
The Spice Market's first name was the "New Bazaar" or the "Valide Bazaar," according to some writers from the17th-century. However, since the products sold in the shops here were mostly from Egypt, Egyptian Bazaar became the primary name since the mid-18th century.
In the beginning, there were only two groups of merchants at the Spice Market: Spice Merchants and cotton shops. There were six entrance gates to the Spice Market. Three of them were for the spice merchants, and the other three were for cotton shops. Although there is no such distinction today, the names of the doors didn't change. The doors are Fish Market, Hasircilar, Ketenciler, New Mosque, Haseki, and Flower Bazaar.
The upper floors of the main entrance gate on both ends of the Bazaar served as the Commercial Court, where they solve the issues between the shops or merchants and people.
The historical Spice Market had severe damage by a large-scale fire in 1940. Istanbul Municipality restored it and regained its identity. The Egyptian Bazaar, which has a history 400-years, separated itself from the New Mosque in 1941.
The Spice Market had a major restoration between 2013 and 2018 with the latest technology by the General Directorate of Foundations.

Texas shooting: The Aftermath
Nov 8, 2017 /1 Comment/in NEWSWORTHY /by Jonathan Malm
On Sunday, while I was worshipping at my church, a shooting happened just a few miles away at First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas. It turned out to be the deadliest church shooting in US history. At least 26 died (almost half of them children) and others were injured.
As a fellow Texan, I can say that the whole community is still in the early stages of the grief process. If the five stages are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance, we're somewhere in between denial and anger.
Anger is obvious, because we're mad something like this could happen.
The denial part is equally strong. To be honest, Texans have a certain pride that things like this can't happen here. In such a small town, this seems like the most improbable thing. It's hard for us Texans to wrap our minds around it.
That said, I feel that it's important and necessary that we work our way through the grieving process, no matter how tough it is. And the first thing to bear in mind is this: We can grieve.
In 1 Thessalonians 4:13, Paul talked to the church about grief. "And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope." Paul never told the Thessalonian believers not to grieve; he told them to grieve from a place of hope.
This hope, I believe, can propel us to go beyond the "acceptance" stage of the grieving process to a sixth stage that is available to believers. That stage is "worship".
As believers, we can land somewhere greater than just accepting the negative circumstances. With faith and hope available to us, we can go beyond mere acceptance and turn it into worship towards God. We can turn it into giving to others. We can turn it into doing the hard thing out of love. We can turn it into gratitude for what God has given us.
While this tragic turn of events might seem extra heart-breaking in light of the upcoming Christmas season, I'd like to suggest that we change our perspective and see the opposite instead. Not only should the approaching Christmas season give us hope and comfort, it can teach us how to process this sixth stage of grief. And Mary's a great example of how to do it.
When she found out she was pregnant, Scripture tells us that she accepted her fate. But she was human, just like you and me. This young girl's expectations for her life were shattered by something God did. Surely she felt these emotions too:
Denial that God would do such a thing to her. How could that even happen? How could a virgin become pregnant—much less with the Son of God?
Anger that her expectations for her life wouldn't be met. Why did she have to be given an abnormal pregnancy?
Bargaining with God to find someone else to do this. After all, she was already engaged and about to be married to Joseph. Surely God could find someone else who didn't have so much at stake to do this.
Depression over the loss of a scandal-less marriage and nice, quiet honeymoon season.
Mary probably experienced a lot more mental turmoil. But Scripture focuses on what she did after the fifth stage of acceptance. Mary's faith not only led her to acceptance, but ultimately, also to worship.
One of the most beautiful songs from Scripture was birthed out of this grief-turned-to-worship moment.
For the Mighty One is holy,
and he has done great things for me.
He shows mercy from generation to generation
to all who fear him.
—Luke 1:49-50 (NLT)
That's what happens when we let God speak into the areas of our heart that disappointment or tragedy exposes. We have the opportunity to respond with worship. By giving to others. Praising God. Loving the unlovable. By focusing on God instead of ourselves. Appreciation pours from our hearts and turns into worship.
I'm working on letting my grief turn into worship through these circumstances. I'm trying to help my friends walk through this process too. Let's add faith to our acceptance and see worship result from this tragedy. God can get glory through this.

Little Blues Sister, vol. IV – SAVE THE DATE!
Another Little Blues Sister is happening on the 18th – 20th of October 2019! Save the date!
And while we are at it, let us introduce the main teachers!
Rosie comes from Yorkshire, UK. She tried many dance styles but nothing moved her like the blues. Before she found blues Rosie loved dancehall. She learnt it on someone's front porch when living on the Caribbean coast of Nicaragua. When she found that blues dancing had the same African roots, she instantly fell in love. Rosie started teaching in early 2016 & set up her Manchester blues scene 'Honey Blues' a year later, where she's been teaching every week since. She likes her dancing to always fit the music & wants you to be able to see what she's hearing through her body. She loves the huge variety of music & dances within the blues genre & can't wait to share some of these with you.
Marshal comes all the way from Nashville in the USA. He started dancing in 2010 and has been in love with it ever since. To learn as much as he could, Marshal would drive hours to go to every possible swing & blues dance he could find, often dancing 5 nights a week. A renowned DJ in the US and across Europe, Marshal has shared his love of blues & swing DJing at events such as The Spoonful & Double Shot Valencia. He's a huge fan of the blues & jazz genres. He sees dancing as a way of actively listening to the music and connecting to it in a deep way.
Rosie & Marshal met dancing & have been dancing ever since. They love going to see live blues bands & that feeling of connection between the musicians & the dancers. Not only do they both teach, & DJ, they also organise an event called 'Blues in the Hudd' in Rosie's hometown of Huddersfield. This August will be its 4th year!
They can't wait to get everyone grooving & share the joy of blues with you all.

It's Elemental is an annual exhibition at the Coconino Center for the Arts, serving as a perfect lead up to the holiday season.

The Center closed in the late 1990′s, but when it reopened in 2001, the exhibition returned with its current name and concept.
The exhibition is accompanied by the Fine Craft Sale on December 3-4, 2015, from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. on Saturday and from 12 – 4 p.m on Sunday.

Learners with dyslexia may:
write slowly and with great effort;
produce writing that is untidy or difficult to read;
struggle to spell accurately;
be much better at talking about a subject than writing about it;
be reluctant and try to avoid writing.
Technology can address all of these support needs. In this section we give three examples to illustrate how technology can help learners who have different challenges with writing.
CALL Scotland's Supporting Writing Difficulties infograph provides a step-by-step guide in the form of a question and answer checklist helping you to identify problems and suggesting a range of practical technology focused solutions to support pupils with writing difficulties.
CALL's Dyslexia Writing and Dyslexia Action's Writing pages offer more detailed advice.
Typing and Word Prediction - Barry's Story
A personal digital device can be very helpful for learners who have difficulties with handwriting or spelling.
Barry is in P7 and has difficulties with handwriting and spelling.
There was a desktop computer in the classroom, but using it required Barry to leave his table and his peer group and go to the back of the room, which did not help him to participate in class.
Barry was provided with a small laptop computer with the Co:Writer word predictor to support his spelling. Barry and the class teacher and learning assistant were shown how to use the technology. Barry also worked on his typing skills with Doorway Online.
After 10 weeks, his class teacher completed an evaluation of the intervention:
What impact has the netbook had on the pupil's ability to access the curriculum?
There was an immediate impact on Barry's enthusiasm and attitude to attempt and produce work. Used for:
Word processing: planning, drafting and publishing.
Barry is more able and willing to work independently on these three steps without an adult scribe.
Barry is eager, and able, to be involved in adding to his Co-writer word bank.
Typing answers to spelling activities – a task which Barry dislikes when he is writing by hand. He now produces work of a higher level.
Spelling has improved.
Barry's difficulties with handwriting and spelling were having a negative impact on his education, and also on his well being. The laptop addressed his handwriting difficulty, while the word predictor helped him to improve his spelling. The combination, plus the support from his teacher and classroom assistant, improved his well being.
iPad and Clicker Sentences - John's Story
Poor handwriting can be really demotivating. John is in P2. He has Autistic Spectrum Disorder and also struggles with handwriting and literacy -
A sentence building activity was created using Clicker Sentences on an iPad. John was able to produce a much more satisfying piece of work. Clicker Sentences provided word banks with appropriate vocabulary for the learning task and read back his text as he wrote. He was kept on task with the built-in Guided Access on the iPad.

Dragon Speech Recognition - MB's Story
Some learners have strong oral skills that they can use to overcome difficulties with writing. This Case Study shows how one learner used Dragon Speech Recognition to overcome significant difficulties with writing. The example is from the Talking in Exams Report, from CALL Scotland.
"MB is an S1 pupil who transferred to this school at the end of February this session. M has quite significant barriers to learning, particularly dyslexia. He also has a variety of social and emotional needs and has very low self-esteem. It became quite clear early on that M would not be able to properly access the curriculum unless it was adapted for him. His written work was very poor and he was extremely reluctant to answer out or speak out in class.
"M became part of the ICT group, which meets with me every Tuesday afternoon. He quickly built up a [Dragon voice] profile on his assigned PC and was able to complete written assignments in English, within a short space of time. M is a very articulate pupil with good ideas and a great imagination and he soon realised that he was able to commit these ideas to paper, via dragon software. This has really increased his self-confidence as he is now able to use the software for homework, powerpoints, extended pieces of writing, etc.
"Staff know to send him to the ASN base to complete pieces of work using the software and M now has the confidence to ask staff if he can come to the base, whenever appropriate. He has a sense of independence with his class work and can see that there are other pupils in school just like him, who need an extra level of support. His mum has visited the base to see M working on dragon and has recently purchased the software for her own laptop at home.
"M showcased his abilities on dragon software at the North Lanarkshire Learning Festival in May and accompanied me to the CALL Scotland seminar earlier this month. His self-esteem has also increased as a result of these visits as he feels that he is "good" at something and that others want to learn from him.
"His parents are delighted at the progress he has made since March this session and they too feel that dragon software has been the "key that has helped to unlock M's real abilities".
MB dictated this with Dragon:
"Dragons helped me so much since I started using it.
Ever since joining the school Dragon has helped me get through all my work and helped me to do the best I can. It is so easy to use I've taken to it so well. When I first started at the school I did not know what Dragon was. Dragon has helped me with spelling and vocabulary."

Spiritual Pluralism:
How Universality leads to Empathy
Universality: Inward and outward connections
What is Universality?¹ At first, we may think of the universality of human rights or the universality of the laws of mathematics. But for our purposes, universality is the very embodiment of Reality, which connects and underlies every aspect of existence. It touches all, and all experience it. This ever-present connection is what theists term God or Divinity. It is nowhere and everywhere at once. Reality is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Outwardly Manifest and Inwardly Hidden (Al-Zahir, Al-Batin). It is much more than a theoretical supposition, as it's capable of engendering empathy on the individual level and greater compassion societally.
At the individual level, this universality starts with a degree of openness, a willingness to hear other ideas. With spiritual practice, it develops into familiarity with oneself; and a heightened eagerness to understand others. It begins by becoming aware of one's failings and then learning to refrain from judging others for making the same mistakes. With time, this understanding blossoms into patience with others, then compassion and empathy, and finally, unconditional love. We start realizing that the "other" is not so different from oneself. Slowly but surely, we progress towards the principle of non-violence (ahimsa). When we truly see ourselves in others, how can we harm them? At its fullest, this quality can manifest quite dramatically, as in the case of great Saints and mystics.
The Mystic's Empathy
When the Sufi saint Abu Said observed an irate man whipping his stubborn donkey, the sage started rolling on the ground in terrible agony. As a crowd gathered and questioned him, he implored them to stop hurting the donkey. When the donkey's owner and onlookers asked how this matter concerned him, he lifted his shirt showing the stunned crowd fresh welts and bruises from the beating. Every time the hapless donkey felt the whip, Abu Said cried out in pain, and a new injury would appear on his body!
In a similar episode, Paramhamsa Ramakrishna, the great Indian mystic of the 19th century, asked his devotees to stop walking on the grass near his residence at the Dakshineshwar Kali temple. He said that when someone strode over the grass, he felt like they were walking on his chest, and he couldn't breathe! There are similar stories from around the world about mystics feeling the pain of others because they have merged with all of creation. It is common to find in the prose and poetry of saints and mystics such all-encompassing references while dissociating from narrow societal conventions that constrict the heart and divide humanity.
In Vedic literature, three aphorisms sum this up quite nicely, Aham Brahmasmi (I am That), Tat Tvam Asi (You are That), Hari Om Tat Sat (All is That). In Sufi terms, this is the journey of the traveler (salik) from multiplicity to singularity (fana) and then again into multiplicity (baqa). The Oneness of Being or Unity of Existence (Wahdat al-Wujud) is the Sufi articulation of this idea.
While such examples may seem dramatic and hyperbolic to the casual observer, they demonstrate the power of spirituality to refine a person and make us fully human. The Peace Prayer of Saint Francis beautifully expresses this ideal:
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
From Emotional Intelligence to Social Intelligence
Interestingly, studies in psychology and neuroscience seem to corroborate this. The work of Daniel Goleman suggests that spiritual practices, such as mindfulness and meditation, are crucial to achieving a focused mind, which in turn leads to self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management (i.e., the four pillars of emotional intelligence). In other words, empathy is a natural outcome of spirituality. In Lawrence Kohlberg's model of moral development, such awareness and universal acceptance of others is the quintessential requirement of the highest stage of moral development. It is at once the pre-requisite and the fulfilment of the Golden Rule, "Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you." For if you see yourself in others, how can it be otherwise?
When we proactively work on ourselves through various spiritual practices that encourage a universal outlook, universality slowly becomes part of and parcel of our very being. Hazrat Maulana Chaman Qadri², our teacher often emphasized this unity within diversity. For the better part of 30 years, he served as the Rajasthan State Chair for the All India Pluralism Committee started by the former President of India, Gyani Zail Singh. Babuji insisted upon this as a cornerstone of his message, a legacy he inherited from his teachers. At the individual level, it also means accepting every person as they are, where they are. At Essential Spirituality, we embrace the resulting pluralism as a cornerstone of our work and seek to unite seemingly disparate people in the unity of spiritual ideals.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. crude prices fell 2 percent on Thursday as Hurricane Harvey, forecast to come ashore as the strongest storm to hit the U.S. mainland in 12 years, threatened oil operations along the energy hub on the U.S. Gulf Coast.
U.S gasoline futures RBc1, however, jumped 2.8 percent and gasoline cash prices in the Gulf Coast rose to the highest levels in almost a year on fears of the hurricane and flooding damaging refineries.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said that Harvey was rapidly intensifying and expected to make landfall Friday night or early Saturday on the Texas coast, whilst warning of a storm surge or the danger of life-threatening flooding.
Harvey is forecast to come ashore as a Category 3 hurricane, the NHC said, with winds of up to 129 miles (208 km) per hour. Hurricane Wilma, which struck Florida in 2005, was the last Category 3 hurricane to make landfall in the United States.
Around 10 percent of the Gulf Coast region's approximately 9.75 million barrels per day of refining capacity was shut in, according to a Reuters estimate.
Two refineries in Corpus Christi, Texas - Flint Hills Resources' [FHR.UL] 296,470 barrels per day plant and Citgo Petroleum's 157,000 bpd plant - were shutting down operations in preparation of the storm.
Exports of oil and condensates would also be affected as NuStar Energy (NS.N) and Magellan Midstream Partners (MMP.N) were also shutting down their Corpus Christi terminals ahead of Harvey.
U.S. crude futures CLc1 settled 98 cents lower at $47.43 a barrel and Brent crude LCOc1 ended down 53 cents a barrel, or 1 percent, at $52.04.
Storm preparations, however, also shut in crude production, which was supportive.
Almost 10 percent, or the equivalent of 167,231 bpd, of current oil production in the U.S. of Mexico has been shut in, the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement said.
Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.AS), Anadarko Petroleum (APC.N) and Exxon Mobil (XOM.N) have all taken steps to curb some oil and gas output at platforms in the Gulf.
ConocoPhillips (COP.N) also said it was suspending drilling the Eagle Ford sand idling five rigs ahead of the hurricane.
A slightly stronger dollar .DXY, which makes greenback-denominated crude more expensive for buyers in other currencies, also weighed on the oil market as investors eyed a meeting of central bankers that begins on Thursday in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
The meeting, which could signal changes to monetary policy, will include speeches by U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen on the outlook for monetary policy and interest rates.


You do not have to look very far to see a spider's web. In the corner of the window, on a fence, or in a bush, spiders make their homes everywhere. And there are so many kinds of spiders! Some are red while others are yellow, but not all sights are fascinating. Much like a recent video that is sending shivers down the spines. A footage of a huge spider hugging a branch above the flooded Herbert River through North Queensland in Australia has been posted on Facebook and has in no time went viral. A few seconds video has become more like a horror film to the netizens.
Andrew Gilberto uploaded the original video of the giant spider that was spotted very close to Halifax's Spar supermarket. While many people would run to the opposite when face-to-face with such an enormous creature, what the localists did would surprise you. Channel 9 reported that the nearby residents plucked the branch from above the river and placed it on an avocado tree near a pharmacy in the town centre. Far away from the flooded water, but significantly close to humans! According to media reports, it is believed to be known as a Whistling Spider, so named for the hissing sound it makes.
Here is the video of the giant spider rescued from Herbert River, North Queensland.
The horrific sight has made rounds on the internet and here is what Twitterati has to say.
Well I won't be visiting North Queensland for a while...or ever.
Does it comes to your mind too?
I have no words! Fear, anxiety, leaving the country comes to mind!!
It was just a tea towel!
Torrential rain for much of the last week has caused flooding across the region with the area between Townsville city causing disastrous effect as declared by the State Government. And the photos and video posts from the people have been gaining huge followings online. But this giant spider is terrifying and the bold move of the locals is quite appreciated.

Melbourne's student spirit
CBD Local
By Chelsea Cucinotta
Meet 22-year-old student Jane Lee, whose studies brought her all the way from Singapore to the Melbourne CBD back in 2015.
Jane made the move when she was 19, and said "it was a no-brainer when the University of Melbourne accepted me for the Bachelor of Arts degree".
Since studying history and criminology, Jane has made Melbourne her home-away-from-home, but said it did take her a while to adjust at first.
"I definitely missed my family, especially my puppy Cooper," she said.
New friendships made the transition easier though, with university life offering Jane lots of opportunities to socialise.
"I've been really lucky to meet such friendly, generous people here and I think the friendships that I've made have helped me feel right at home," she said.
Life in densely-populated Singapore was much more compact for Jane. But what her two homes have in common is their multiculturalism – something Jane values a lot.
"Culturally, Singapore's diverse ethnic demographic mirrors Melbourne's multicultural ethos and the embracing of different cultures is definitely something that is heart-warming to see," she said.
"Tolerance and respect is what makes Melbourne such a great place to live and you can see that everywhere – from the protests on important topics (she was involved in climate change and same-sex marriage marches), to simple everyday interactions."
Jane said what she loves most about living in the CBD however, was the convenience.
"Everything is literally at my doorstep, and I have access to fresh produce as I live minutes away from the Queen Victoria Market. I never have a boring weekend as there's always something happening in the city, and there are so many options for public transport too," Jane said. "Oh yes, and the amazing coffee culture cannot go unmentioned!"
When she is not studying or drinking coffee, Jane can be found reading. Since her move, she has joined several book clubs in Melbourne's literary scene and was excited to attend her first Kurt Vonnegut book club meeting the other day, discussing Breakfast of Champions.
Jane plans to graduate from her studies in 2018 and hopes to then study honours.
"I dread thinking about the future – I think every undergraduate does. I guess we'll see what else the future holds, but my partner is on his way to completing his PhD, so I'll be staying in Melbourne for quite some time."

Comparison of Bayesian model averaging and stepwise methods for model selection in logistic regression.
Logistic regression is the standard method for assessing predictors of diseases. In logistic regression analyses, a stepwise strategy is often adopted to choose a subset of variables. Inference about the predictors is then made based on the chosen model constructed of only those variables retained in that model. This method subsequently ignores both the variables not selected by the procedure, and the uncertainty due to the variable selection procedure. This limitation may be addressed by adopting a Bayesian model averaging approach, which selects a number of all possible such models, and uses the posterior probabilities of these models to perform all inferences and predictions. This study compares the Bayesian model averaging approach with the stepwise procedures for selection of predictor variables in logistic regression using simulated data sets and the Framingham Heart Study data. The results show that in most cases Bayesian model averaging selects the correct model and out-performs stepwise approaches at predicting an event of interest.

Report: Nearly half world's primates face extinction
Report: Almost 50 percent of world's primates in danger of extinction
Situation is especially dire in Asia, where 70 percent of primates threatened
90 percent of primate species in Vietnam and Cambodia at risk of extinction
Next Article in World »
LONDON, England (CNN) -- Almost 50 percent of the world's primates are in danger of extinction, according to a report from an international conservation group that cites habitat destruction and hunting as the two greatest threats.
The golden-headed lion tamarin has been brought back from the edge of extinction.
The situation is especially dire in Asia, where the report says more than 70 percent of monkeys, apes, and other primates are classified as vulnerable, endangered, or critically endangered.
"We've raised concerns for years about primates being in peril, but now we have solid data to show the situation is far more severe than we imagined," said Russell Mittermeier, president of Conservation International and chairman of the IUCN Primate Specialist Group.
"Tropical forest destruction has always been the main cause, but now it appears that hunting is just as serious a threat in some areas, even where the habitat is still quite intact," he said.
The report from Conservation International, issued at this week's International Primatological Society Congress in Edinburgh, Scotland, looked at the world's 634 kinds of primates, mankind's closest relatives.
Conservation International funded the review along with the Margot Marsh Biodiversity Foundation, Disney's Animal Kingdom, and the Swiss-based IUCN, or International Union for Conservation of Nature.
The report found that about 90 percent of primate species in Vietnam and Cambodia were at risk of extinction. Populations of gibbons, leaf monkeys, langurs and other species had dwindled, the report said, because of "rampant habitat loss exacerbated by hunting for food and to supply the wildlife trade in traditional Chinese medicine and pets."
Jean-Christophe Vie, deputy head of the IUCN Species Program, called the situation in southeast Asia terrifying.

Will moving endangered species save them?
In Depth: Planet in peril
"To have a group of animals under such a high level of threat is, quite frankly, unlike anything we have recorded among any other group of species to date," he said in a news release.
Great apes like gorillas and bonobos still faced challenges in Africa, the report said, but it was the smaller primates -- such as the red colobus monkey, with its striking white, black and rust-colored coat -- that could die out first.
In Africa, 11 of the 13 kinds of red colobus monkeys assessed in the report were listed as critically endangered or endangered, and two may already be extinct, the report said. Bouvier's red colobus has not been seen in 25 years, and despite occasional sightings, no primatologist has recorded a living Miss Waldron's red colobus since 1978, the report says.
Primates are important to the health of their surrounding ecosystems, the report's authors say, supporting a wide range of plant and animal life in the world's tropical forests. Healthy forests, in turn, provide vital resources for local human populations.
Reforestation is crucial to restoring primate populations because it restores their habitat, the report said. It cites the cases of the black lion tamarin and golden lion tamarin in Brazil, which were downgraded from critically endangered to endangered after three decades of conservation efforts.
"If you have forests, you can save primates," said Anthony Rylands, a scientist with Conservation International and the deputy chair of the IUCN Primate Specialist Group.
"The work with lion tamarins shows that conserving forest fragments and reforesting to create corridors that connect them is not only vital for primates, but offers the multiple benefits of maintaining healthy ecosystems and water supplies while reducing greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change."

Senators 'troubled' after Rice meeting Bergen: Senseless Benghazi obsession


Today we'd like to introduce you to Saba Moor-Doucette.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Saba. So, let's start at the beginning, and we can move on from there.
The skin on my arms was sagging, and I was losing hair rapidly. At first, I doubted my "I can do anything I set my mind to" attitude. But I already knew a lot about the mind-body connection and decided I would start affirming the positive aspects until I actually believed I could do it. I started reading bodybuilding magazines and cut out a picture of a former champion bikini diva, and taped it up inside my fridge. Every time I opened the fridge, where she was to inspire me in my choices of food. I started going to the gym every day and cut out eating some of my favorite foods that I knew weren't helping me.
Being from a show business background, I decided we should document what we were doing. So, we started shooting little three-minute videologues to show how we were doing. We eventually got our own YouTube channel, and one thing led to another. I won my first competition, made it to Team USA, and came in first place in my division for the next seven years. Along the way, I created my Think it, Do it, Be it! Method to show anyone who wants to reach a goal, whether it's with their body or anything in life, how they can actually shift their consciousness and make it happen.
I wanted to inspire others like I was inspired by my friend. In the process, I realized that my core talents, personality, and passion were coming together in a wonderful and unexpected way. I have a gift for helping others reach their goals, and I absolutely love sharing that gift! Health and fitness had become a way of life. Once I started and got organized, it was effortless. One of the benefits of getting in shape was a whole lot of new energy.
I started creating workouts, CD's, DVD's, workshops, wrote a few books, had a weekly radio show, and as the years went by many people told me how my system motivated them to change their lives. I was even contacted by a production company from the UK to do a segment on a popular British TV show. They flew over here and put me in a car with the host and star, Micky Flanagan, a famous UK comedian. We drove around all day while I taught him how to do my Autosize workout. It's a workout where you make your car your very own personal gym.
I decided to shoot a video with my one-hundred-year-old mother Dorothy, or "Bubby" as she is lovingly nicknamed. I had already helped her to change her mind, her body, her whole life really by showing her my techniques. She exercised every day, and never needed a walker. I told her that if she worked her muscles, even at that age, that she wouldn't break bones if she fell. She had more spring in her step, and her mind seemed to be clearer and sharper. We called the video "For Seniors & Older." We had so much fun together shooting it, and I will treasure it forever.
There were definitely some bumps along the way. Besides being busy creating and running an online network, it was challenging being the only one in my household who was eating differently. My husband did most of the cooking and the shopping, so at first, I would just pick out what I could eat and leave the rest. After all, I didn't want to change his patterns and stop that flow, because let's face, it when you have a man that does the shopping and cooking, who in their right mind would want to stop it!
Eventually, I learned more about food, and that what you put into your body is really 70% of getting into shape, I learned how to cook and prep meals for myself. Believe me, if anyone would have told me I would be cooking and preparing meals a few years ago I would have thought they were out of their minds. Giving up Pepsi was another biggie for me. I thought I was doing myself a favor by switching to diet Pepsi. Now that was a big learning curve. But I guess one of the biggest challenges I had happened about two years in.
I was going strong had my routine down. I wasn't letting anything get in the way, and then I was diagnosed with cancer. It was a growth on my face that had to be removed before it spread. I remember just hearing that word, cancer. It really threw me. It had been growing slowly, and makeup was doing the trick for a while, but then that little sucker seemed to grow overnight! The doctor told me that after the surgery I would have to recuperate, with no working out for at least three weeks.
Two weeks means a lot when you're trying to keep your body in competition shape. Being a mind/body practitioner, I immediately went to work on myself. I affirmed that I would not be affected by this minor setback. The mind is such a powerful tool, and I use it in everything I do. The cancer was deeper than she thought and I wound up being left with sixteen stitches across my face, but I still knew in my heart I would heal in a perfect way.
Contrary to all logic, I had my energy back in five days, and my scars healed up with no signs of surgery, I not only shocked the doctor, I gained a new fan and follower of my Think it, Do it, Be it! Method.
So let's switch gears a bit and go into the Think it, Do it, Be it! story. Tell us more about the business.
At the ripe old age of seventy-six, most people are slowing down and enjoying their leisure time. I feel like I'm just getting started. One of my favorite sayings is "From birth to 50 is your gift from God. From 50 on, is your gift to yourself." My business is staying in shape and spreading the word about staying fit for life. I do that through my book, speaking to all kinds of groups, and keeping a very visible internet presence.
So many people are in fitness and health these days, and that's great, but what makes me so special is there are not too many people who reversed the aging process in their bodies and started a business as a senior helping other people to do the same. I also feel that my approach to fitness is very different. I believe that many people have failed at succeeding on a diet because they didn't have a strong foundation to start with.
Since I believe everything starts in the mind, the first step I take in the Think it, Do it, Be it Method is to teach people how to strengthen their mind muscle, so they are supported in getting their body into the shape they desire — that way they are building a strong foundation to support them through the process. And as most women who shop at Victoria Secret know, there's nothing like a strong foundation to support the way you look.
So, after they have the tools for a strong foundation, I give them the key things they have to know to actually Do it. Doing it is simply taking action towards achieving your goal. I do all of this through affirmations and visualizations, diet, exercise, and other tools I learned to use in my daily life.
As a licensed practitioner with Centers of Spiritual Living, I believe we are all connected to a Universal Energy that we can all use to powerfully live the life we desire. I'm living proof it works. It's the same energy Oprah or Ellen use to get where they are now, and it works for everyone if they choose to use it.
Sometimes I think if had it all to do over again I would have started earlier, like in my 30's or 40's. But really, I don't think I would have done anything differently. Because becoming a role model for seniors, and seeing the effect I've had on men and women young and old, wouldn't have been as powerful or impressive if I were a bikini diva at twenty. Also, I wouldn't be able to give younger women the hope that life doesn't end after 40 or 50.
Another thing that I would have done differently would be to learn more about the ins and outs of social media and marketing at a younger age. But then, those things didn't exist when I was younger, so never mind. Everything is perfect.

Get A Taste Of Nineteenth-Century India With These Amazing Coloured Photos

By Alex Jones
FASCINATING 125-year-old colour photos give a rare insight to what life was like in India at the end of the 19th Century.
Remarkable images, taken in 1895, show a woman managing to haul two huge corrugated sheets on her back, native children sheltering their eyes from the fierce sun, and two buskers playing their stringed instruments as shoppers studiously swerve between them.

The striking photos were snapped by pioneering American photographer William Henry Jackson as part of an extensive World tour. He travelled through Asia, Africa and Oceania taking photos for the World's Transportation Commission. The tour, set up by railroad magnate Joseph Gladding Pangborn, was initially organised to explore and examine different railroads systems throughout the world, but Jackson took the opportunity to capture the local people, architecture and landscape during his 1994-1896 explorations. His photos were featured in numerous publications and allowed ordinary people to experience life in countries they could only dream about.
INDIA: World Tour organiser Jospeh Pangborn is carried around by four porters. The ambition of the trip was to research foreign railway systems but photographer Jackson took the opportunity to capture the daily lives of local people across the world. Mediadrumimages/PublicDomain
As colour photography was in its infancy all of Jackson's pictures were on black and white lantern slides. To make the lantern slides look more realistic, certain slides such as these were coloured by hand with dyes and paints.

At the time Jackson snapped his captivating pictures, India was under direct British rule and had been for over three decades. Before 1858, when the crown took over, India was under the influence of the East India Company. Throughout its occupation India retained a strong sense of self and the relationship between the Indian population and Britain was often strained. However, it would still be over fifty years after Jackson's visit that India enjoyed independence (1947).

Certificate of Deposit (CD) rates have decreased a bit since I first wrote about the Ally Bank 5-year CD and the PenFed 7-year CD. As of today, the Ally Bank 5-year CD APY is 2.40%, and the PenFed 7-year CD APY is 3.25%. The Ally 5-year CD still works well for taxable accounts, but I now prefer the PenFed 5-year CD at 2.75% APY for IRA accounts because of the smaller early withdrawal penalty (explained in more detail later).

Scotland's businesses need to collaborate further with educators and policymakers to develop the vital skills required to harness productivity for regional growth, according to Deloitte's latest Power Up report.
Power Up: UK-Wide Growth explores how improved productivity can be unlocked across the UK's regions and nations.
Deloitte reviewed nearly 20 years of Office for National Statistics (ONS) productivity data and 36 years of employment data dissecting it by nation, region and by sector. The firm then consulted with more than 50 business leaders, educators, local government officials and other influential figures in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the eight English regions outside London to assess how this potential could be unlocked.
It found that while Scotland has outperformed the UK average in productivity growth over the last 10 years, closing a previous gap, the growth rate has declined across the UK as a whole since the financial crash. Slowing productivity across certain sectors and lower levels of investment in high productivity sectors are contributing factors to this decline.
However, Scotland, like the rest of the UK, has rapidly created jobs over the last eight years, with unemployment down from 8.8% in 2010 to 3.8% in the period July to September this year.
The analysis also shows that for a number of sectors, including information/communication and professional services, productivity and employment growth have not been mutually exclusive, demonstrating that it is possible to increase both in tandem.
The Power Up report shows that Scotland's output per head was higher than the average of all other UK regions and nations, except for London and the South East. However, low growth in Scotland remains a concern. In May this year, the independent Scottish Fiscal Commission forecast economic expansion of below 1% a year for the next five years, reflecting weak growth in population and productivity, while this year's second quarter estimate for Scotland's GDP showed that Scotland's economy has grown at only half the UK average rate, although this has recently picked up.
Stephen Williams, senior partner for Deloitte in Scotland, said: "Combining in-depth analysis, with the insights of high-profile business leaders across Scotland's key sectors, has allowed our Power Up report to identify how the Scottish business landscape is evolving, and to demonstrate why we must start to think and plan differently to ensure future, sustainable growth.
"There are clear signs that Scotland's businesses, educators and policymakers must collaborate to shape the skills that will be essential for driving productivity and economic growth. In addition, businesses will need to increase investment in upskilling their talent pools in the face of advancing technology, AI and robotic capabilities. Underpinning this is the inherent need for leading connectivity infrastructures and associated investment.
He added: "The report also highlighted that with digital strategies and technology innovation continuing to influence productivity gains in the short term, Scotland's business leaders will need to be open and agile to truly transformational opportunities.
Technology and workforce skills: Technology and digital transformation initiatives are proven enablers of productivity improvement, with a leveraging of advanced technologies to do the same things better. Many of the business leaders Deloitte interviewed said they were therefore looking to capitalise on new AI-based software, robotics and workplace connectivity tools that will help to re-design work and lift productivity.
Adoption of these tools has accelerated – affecting strategy, talent, business models and the way companies are organised. Against this backdrop, there is a predicted demand for skills beyond technology and digital, such as cognitive abilities and complex problem-solving and social skills.
Business and educators need to agree on the future skills and personal attributes that Scotland's workforce will require in the face of relentless technology change.
Scaling-up and going international: Large organisations are invariably international in their outlook and reach, and productivity is imperative for sustaining competitiveness in global markets. Beyond a large public sector, financial services and oil and gas, Scotland's business community is comprised mainly of private organisations, the majority of them SMEs. The challenge for Scotland therefore is to support more organisations in scaling up and building international markets.
Relevant leadership skills and strategic thinking are crucial to building organisations of scale. The make-up of Scotland's business community suggests that these are in scarce supply. Some of the business leaders that Deloitte consulted pointed to factors such as insufficient investment in people development, an income tax environment that might dis-incentivise leadership talent in Scotland, and a failure to help businesses access international markets with confidence.
Building international businesses is a key priority for Fintech Scotland in its ambition to be a top five global hub. Success in this regard will require organisations to be open to learning together and collaborating at an international level.
Industry 4.0: With its roots firmly in manufacturing, Industry 4.0 has both expanded the possibilities of digital transformation and increased its importance to an organisation as it combines and connects digital and physical technologies.
In a future where much innovation may be low-cost and location agnostic, Scotland should distinguish itself as a premium location, aiming to attract activities that require disruptive R&D, such as high-value manufacturing. Contrast this with the renewables sector, where high-value components are manufactured elsewhere and simply assembled in Scotland.
Pioneering technologies developed in Scotland should receive co-ordinated support from government bodies. These bodies could focus on a core group of potential champions, rather than spreading their support too widely across a number of entities that are developing similar technologies.
