The science curriculum at Greater New Bedford Regional Vocational Technical High School provides students with an understanding and appreciation of physical, chemical and biological sciences. The study of science has an integral relationship with mathematics and incorporates other curriculum areas through writing and understanding the historical aspects of science. Investigation and problem solving are central to the understanding of all areas in the science curriculum and will be incorporated through laboratory experiences. Science students will be involved in course specific laboratory investigations designed to instill critical thinking and problem solving skills. Students will learn to employ lab safety principles as they conduct investigations that further their understanding of the curriculum. As students progress through four years of science courses they will develop greater independence in designing and carrying out laboratory investigations while working alone or in groups. Our goal is for students to not only understand the science disciplines but to use these disciplines when participating in intellectual, democratic, and vocational activities during their four years of high school and beyond into post secondary education and the work place.

Q: Go through very large directory tree with find Is find lazy in bash?
I'm trying to go through a directory tree to get all *.jpg files where there are at least 700k files in a 3 level directory tree using the following script:
for im in $(find $1 -name '*.jpg');
do
    echo im;

    # Do something with im...
done

but is taking to long without printing anything from the echo and I'm sure the script works (I tested it with 50k files with 3 levels directory tree and it takes less time but at the end it prints everything).
Maybe there's a lazy version of find or something I could use to get those echo to show while the script is running.

A: $() will allocate all of find's output at once. Use while read loop instead with process substitution (recommended with bash) or pipe:
while IFS= read -r im; do
    ...
done < <(exec find "$1" -name '*.jpg')

exec is my style and is optional. Since we only run one command inside the subshell summoned by process substitution, having another fork may not be necessary.
Or
find "$1" -name '*.jpg' | while IFS= read -r im; do
    # Unfortunately anything that happens here is already inside
    # a subshell so any variable changes would not affect the
    # parent shell.
    ...
done

If you have irregular filenames like filenames having a newline, use \x00 as delimeter:
while IFS= read -r -d '' im; do
    ...
done < <(exec find "$1" -name '*.jpg' -print0)

If one of your commands inside the loop reads input, it would be necessary to use another file descriptor to prevent those commands from reading input from find:
while IFS= read -ru 4 -d '' im; do
    ...
done 4< <(exec find "$1" -name '*.jpg' -print0)

Common questions about Sri Chinmoy's path

The role of a spiritual Master
How do you find your spiritual Master?
Question: How does your path differ from that of Sri Ramakrishna?
Sri Chinmoy: All paths ultimately lead to the to the same goal, and both Sri Ramakrishna's path and my own path are the path of love, devotion and surrender. But there are some subtle differences. Sri Ramakrishna said that you do not have to read any books; he said that all will come from within. Sri Ramakrishna did not care for the mind at all. He said, "No mind! Just cry, cry!" It is true that the supreme Wisdom, the supreme Knowledge, comes from within. But since God has given us the mind, I feel that we have to utilise it to some extent by reading inspiring and uplifting books written by the real spiritual Masters. But again, the mind is imperfect and I wish my disciples to go beyond the mind. Sri Ramakrishna's path and our path will never run into any conflict. He is a very great spiritual Master and I have utmost love and admiration for him. I have written a play and quite a few articles about Sri Ramakrishna. A few years ago, for Vivekananda's Centennial, I wrote twelve articles on Swami Vivekananda and Sri Ramakrishna.
I have never said that our path is superior to somebody else's. No, far from it. But if you want to know the differences, I can find some little differences. I appreciate Sri Ramakrishna's love, devotion and surrender. But I also say that we have to use the mind to a certain extent. Vivekananda, his dearest disciple, utilised the mind when he came to the West. Vivekananda was intellectually a giant. So there is always a compromise. Sri Ramakrishna did not care to study and he could hardly even write his name. But he embodied the highest Truth.
Sri Ramakrishna used to worship Mother Kali, the Divine Mother. He used to adore the Highest in the feminine form. He used to feel the Divine Mother in his own highest consciousness. But he would not allow his disciples to mix with women. He told his male disciples to shun women. He really felt that this was best for his disciples. Most of our Indian spiritual Masters have asked their men disciples not to mix with women at all, and they have asked the women disciples not to mix with men. But in my philosophy, I say that men and women are both God's children and they have to go together. One complements the other. But again, there is no basic difference between my path and Sri Ramakrishna's. There are only subtle differences. 1
Question: Why did Sri Ramakrishna not cure himself if he had the power?
Sri Chinmoy: In Ramakrishna's case, he himself knew and we definitely know that his disease was not due to his own karma. It was the karma of his disciples that he accepted and embraced. Sri Ramakrishna accepted very few disciples as his very own, when he was in the land of the living. When sixteen or seventeen true disciples had come to him, he said, "Stop now…..I don't want to have any more." Although the number of disciples was very few, their sincerity was so genuine and pure, that he really accepted the consequences of the disciples' wrong actions. He used to enter into the vital world, the lowest vital world, and almost every day he cleaned them and purified his disciples. Then, the ignorance that was about to attack them he would invite to himself, saying, "Don't touch my children, touch me." Not only the punishment for the wrong actions of the disciples did he accept gladly, but also the ignorance that would have threatened the disciples in future years. So on the strength of his intuitive oneness with his disciples, Ramakrishna accepted all his sufferings.
Now once it happened that Vivekananda, his dearest disciple, asked him, "Why don't you go and tell Mother Kali to cure you? You have the power to cure yourself, but if you don't want to, go and ask Mother to cure you."
He said, "Why?"
Vivakananda said, "If you are cured, you will be able to eat. Now you cannot eat anything; you are in such pain. You cannot put anything inside you."
So Ramakrishna went to Mother Kali and said, "Mother, Naren is telling me to ask you to cure me, so that I can eat." The Mother said, "What is wrong with you? You are eating perfectly." Ramakrishna said, "When? I am not eating." She replied, "You are not eating? You are eating through your hundreds of devotees and admirers and disciples. When they eat, are you not eating? Do you have to eat separately? In their eating, you are eating." Immediately he fell silent and went back to Vivekananda and told him, "I will never listen to you again. My Mother has told me that I am eating through you and eating through all my disciples. I am one with you."
So on the strength of his oneness, he became fully one with the suffering of his disciples. That is how and why Sri Ramakrishna took upon himself the suffering of the disciples. Otherwise he could easily have avoided this. But on the other hand, from the ultimate point of view, we can say that Mother Kali gave him the most significant experience of true oneness through his dearest disciples. 2

An abstraction is like a container object and is used to a group entities. It is very useful when working with large data models. For example, an abstraction called Order Processing can be used to group the Customer, Product, Order and Ordered Product entities. By activating an abstraction, you can now work with just the Order Processing part of the model (four entities) rather than all entities in the model. Entities which are not part of the abstraction are not displayed in the diagram.
Once defined, an abstraction can be activated in order to simplify the model diagram view. In addition, it allows you to build only the objects contained within the abstraction, rather then the entire model.

Co-Designing Assessment and Learning: Rethinking Employer Engagement in a Changing World
Jason A. Tyszko
We are in an economy that competes on talent. The business community succeeds or fails based on its ability to find and develop a consistent and reliable pipeline of high-quality talent. Thus the business community is very interested in what is taught in our nation's postsecondary institutions. Rather than an intrusion on postsecondary education's mission, it is a realization that what postsecondary education does and does not do has a real impact on the success of the business community and the competitiveness of the United States.

Q: Issue getting simple Fetch working in Netlify Functions I've been working through the workshops for Netlify functions and have stumbled getting a simple Fetch response to work. When running the sample at:
https://github.com/DavidWells/netlify-functions-workshop/blob/master/lessons-code-complete/use-cases/5-fetching-data/functions/node-fetch/node-fetch.js
const fetch = require('node-fetch')

const API_ENDPOINT = 'https://cat-fact.herokuapp.com/facts'

exports.handler = async (event, context) => {   let response
  try {
    response = await fetch(API_ENDPOINT)
    // handle response
  } catch (err) {
    return {
      statusCode: err.statusCode || 500,
      body: JSON.stringify({
        error: err.message
      })
  }   }

  return {
    statusCode: 200,
    body: JSON.stringify({
      data: response
    })   } }

but I just get the following response:

{"data":{"size":0,"timeout":0}}

The build process is working fine, and I've tried other end points but all give the same results.

A: Here is a working version of your original code using node-fetch and the callback.
// import fetch from 'node-fetch';
const fetch = require('node-fetch')

const checkStatus = (res) => {
  if (res.ok) { // res.status >= 200 && res.status < 300
      return res.json()
  } else {
      throw new Error(res.statusText);
  }
}

exports.handler = async function(event, context, callback) {
  try {
    const response = await fetch('https://cat-fact.herokuapp.com/facts')
    const data = await checkStatus(response)
    callback(null, {
      statusCode: 200,
      headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
      body: JSON.stringify(data)
    })
  } catch (error) {
    callback(error)
  }
}

Note: Netlify functions are just AWS functions and you can read about the AWS Lambda Function Handler in the AWS docs

For async functions, you return a response, error, or promise to the runtime instead of using callback.

I like to use the method recommended in the docs, since it is supported and save the callback for non-async functions.
Here is a working version returning a promise to the async function instead.
// import fetch from 'node-fetch';
const fetch = require('node-fetch')

exports.handler = async (event, context) => {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    fetch('https://cat-fact.herokuapp.com/facts')
    .then(res => {
      if (res.ok) { // res.status >= 200 && res.status < 300
        return res.json();
      } else {
        resolve({ statusCode: res.status || 500, body: res.statusText })
      };
    })
    .then(data =>{
      const response = {
        statusCode: 200,
        headers: { 'content-type': 'application/json' },
        body: JSON.stringify(data)
      }
      resolve(response);
    })
    .catch(err => {
      console.log(err)
      resolve({ statusCode: err.statusCode || 500, body: err.message })
    })
  })
}

This is just an example and there are other ways to handle the errors, but this example resolved the response rather than rejecting. It is not tested as a production example, but gives you an idea of the difference.
Here are some examples of Netlify functions.

A: On the handle response line you'll want to await the json result:
response = await response.json();

Check the MDN article for Using Fetch for more details.

A: In the end I switched to the Axios library and it worked first time:
const axios = require('axios')

const API_ENDPOINT = 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/1'

exports.handler = async (event, context) => {
  let response
  try {
    response = await axios.get(API_ENDPOINT)
  } catch (err) {
    return {
      statusCode: err.statusCode || 500,
      body: JSON.stringify({
        error: err.message
      })
    }
  }

  return {
    statusCode: 200,
    body: JSON.stringify({
      data: response.data
    })
  }
}

Hat tip to Kowtow over at KB – thought it was worth repeating
The hatred the "left" reserve for people like Paula Bennet and John Key is visceral . Why ? Because they are "class enemies" , they've come from the working classes, and by dint of hard work and personal responsibility, they have improved their lot , as it were.
These people are anathema to socialists, as their example disproves all the lies they push about capitalism oppressing workers, the poor etc
"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." WSC
Despite what many others think, I like and admire Paula. She had me at "Zip it Sweetie".
pdm July 1, 2020 At 7:23 am
`Zip it Sweetie'
Simply the best Parliamentary put down that I can recall.
Chuck Bird July 1, 2020 At 7:31 am
I no fan of John Key but certainly a fan of Paula. If anyone heard Hosking he pointed out that with Tolley and Bennett gone that opens the door to Peters. He then went on to say he National does a deal with Peters they deserve to lose.
Sadly, who wins the September election may be decided by one thing only; whether or not we get Covid-19 back in the community. Labour have made NZ'ers unjustifiably afraid of this virus, and if they allow it back in, it should rightly sink them. By the same token, if they can keep it out, they'll probably win. Don't be expecting any reciprocal travel bubbles any time soon.
I was sitting on my throne last night and had a flashback,
Remember back in the sixties when the world was worried about the yanks and russians chucking nuclear bombs at each other.
Well now we have a nuclear war happening and it wasn't them!
Instead it was the dirty little chink bastards, with a home grown virus that went wrong!
Thank you god for pay back!
It was in their own backyard first!

"Every party needs a tax policy going into the election but there are lots of different elements to our tax policy," Robertson told The AM Show on Wednesday. "We'll announce that when the time comes. One party's already announced theirs – good on them – but the other parties will take our time to put that out during the election campaign."
He said Labour would announce its policy "well before" September's election.

Increasing concern about unauthorised info being released by businesses – survey
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2020/07/increasing-concern-about-unauthorised-info-being-released-by-businesses-survey.html
Parliament passed the Privacy Act 2020 on Friday, with reforms including mandatory notification of harmful privacy breaches, the introduction of compliance orders, and controls on the disclosure of information overseas.
"What I think the survey result tells us is that people are getting surprises and they don't like surprises," Edwards told Newshub. "If we can get in and influence that openness and transparency at the front end, I think that would lead to very positive privacy outcomes."
The survey says 72 percent of people were also concerned about the theft of their banking details.
Simpleton1 July 1, 2020 At 8:34 am
Was thinking this morning, as this past week or so I have had a number of spammers ring on my land line, about Financial Times or some such, survey.
Sometimes claiming to be from Hong Kong, other times, Singapore.
The annoying thing is they use my full name.
That full name is not in the phone book!
So where and who supplied that full name, with my phone number?
An earlier time, I had one identify my house, which would have been figured by a google by pass.
However I never give my residential address, nor did I have a RD address then.
The only one who gets that, is because they demand it, is government bureaucracies and I now believe I have been far too trusting of their systems.
After all, it is more than enough to have a postal Box address.
Electricity systems and Chorus, etc. also have the residential address, so they could also have been hacked.
Usually can figure if one of those calls, as my introductory is curt, and then there is a wait, sometimes a click off, as maybe they figure an answer phone.
Sometimes they go into a spiel, but it is personalized to my full name, which initially makes you respond, then the click over as they know they have got a live one.
Theft of banking details, altering mortgages, expanding credit, then raiding the account.
One can never be sure, unless one has an "apple" while the spammer is supposedly doing a security check on "windows" but those spammers are like rust, and work many different angles.
Chinks in "apple" will also be exploited.

America's Cup 2021: Team New Zealand investigated over public money in Hungarian bank account – report
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/sport/2020/07/america-s-cup-2021-team-new-zealand-investigated-over-public-money-in-hungarian-bank-account-report.html
Serious allegations of fraud at Team New Zealand have emerged, with claims public money was mishandled.
Auckland Council and the Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment (MBIE) are alleging a $3 million loan given to Team New Zealand has been reclassified and linked to a Hungarian bank account, according to a letter seen by NZME.
The letter reportedly says Team New Zealand and America's Cup Events had breached obligations.

Todd Muller hints at 'couple of changes' in upcoming caucus reshuffle as questions swirl on Māori representation

Muller has promised a small reshuffle in the coming days and eyes are on whether Dr Reti, the party's tertiary education and associate health spokesperson, moves up the ranks.
The AM Show host Duncan Garner said on Wednesday that Muller was under pressure "to do something on the Māori front", but if the leader suddenly promotes Dr Reti to the frontbench, it may look like "you have kowtowed to the do-gooders who want you to move people around based on some sort of quota".
"You are under a bit of pressure both ways here, I reckon," Garner said.
Muller told The AM Show: "I don't feel under pressure".

Just like Winston Peters Grant Robertson likes to talk himself up. Robertson said the economy was bouncing back from the lockdown quicker and stronger than expected, and was in a comparatively strong economic position in a world which was still grappling with the virus. Domestic economy coming back quicker than expected, Finance Minister says .
Robertson estimates that the economy was running at about 95% of previous Covid levels but the continued closure of our borders would hurt the economy with Foreign Tourists and Students unable to come in.

Yep, they have all got chinky sounding names as well!

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters have joined the global chorus of condemnation against China's contentious new national security law for Hong Kong.
A statement released by Peters on Wednesday said the New Zealand Government is expressing "deep disappointment" at the passage by China's National People's Congress Standing Committee of a national security law for Hong Kong.
"We share the international community's stake in preserving the high degree of autonomy and freedom available to Hong Kong and its people under the 'one country, two systems' framework.
The communist skeleton wants the same thing here. The lying slag is a hypocrite, and Winnie the piss puppet is just electioneering. I loathe the pair of them.

A group opposed to carbon forestry has launched a new ad campaign aimed at raising awareness of its impact on the country's sheep and beef sector.
50 Shades of Green was established last year with the purpose of protecting productive farmland from being lost to carbon forests.
The new ad campaign comes after the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) was passed earlier this month.

Correct WG but they cannot keep up the charade for too long. In recent days they have almost been crowing at the huge increase in positive cases. If that increase does not translate into increase deaths, in the near future, they have blown their position.

Talleys hosted fundraiser dinners for NZ First, but denies that's behind delay in fishing boat cameras
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2020/07/talleys-hosted-fundraiser-dinners-for-nz-first-but-denies-that-s-behind-delay-in-fishing-boat-cameras.html
Members of fishing family Talleys organised two fundraising dinners at hotels for New Zealand First, Newshub can reveal – another link between the party and the fishing industry.
It came on a day leader Winston Peters fronted to say he's had nothing to do with delaying fishing boat cameras, after Newshub obtained an explosive audio recording of Fisheries Minister Stuart Nash talking about him and Shane Jones.
There's nothing illegal or wrong about hosting fundraisers. The MC was former RNZ board chair Richard Griffin. He confirmed to Newshub that he'd MCed two fundraiser meetings for NZ First, and that Winston Peters, Shane Jones and Clayton Mitchell were there.
Asked about the fundraisers, Peters said "I've got no idea what you're talking about."
Even after Newshub briefed his office, he still refused to talk about it, saying "I don't know what on earth you're asking these questions for".
But the recreational fishing sector says the public certainly wants answers.
….."Talleys hosted fundraiser dinners for NZ First, but denies that's behind delay in fishing boat cameras"……
I agree. A company such as Talleys wouldn't expect to get favours as cheap as covering a bit of catering. There'll be more to it.
Much more.

Southland DHB told man to wait 10 months for cancer test after he collapsed bleeding
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2020/07/southland-dhb-told-man-to-wait-until-10-months-after-he-collapsed-bleeding-to-have-cancer-screening.html
Newshub can reveal some Southland patients waiting for bowel cancer screening tests are being left in limbo due to a fault in the system.
Winton man Jason Mitchell, 39, waited three months just to receive confirmation he was on a waiting list at the Southern DHB.
In March, just two days into lockdown, father-of-two Jason noticed blood in his stools, calling out to his wife when he started bleeding in the shower.
Jason was rushed by ambulance from Winton to Southland Hospital. Discharged three days later, he expected to be scheduled for a sigmoidoscopy – a screening test for bowel cancer.
It took three months for Jason to receive a letter from the Southern DHB, a waiting period they said was down to "a loophole in the patient management system".
"When that letter came, I cried because it said he'd have to wait another seven months," Jaimee said. "How is that fair?"
Obscene. But wait! Maybe he can find a race card somewhere in the family tree.
Appalling. An absolute disgrace. How can these cunts in government sleep at night? How many people like this poor bloke were kept from receiving urgent medical care because the bitch Ardern and the fuckwit Bloomfield decided so called "covid 19 patients" were more important? A commission of inquiry needs to be held. Where is the accountability? Who should be held to account?

Mr Morrison says Australia will never surrender its sovereignty or seek to intimidate its neighbours.
But the country's prosperity and security are under increasing strain.
The Prime Minister says strategic competition between China and the United States is creating "a lot of tension in the cord and a lot of miscalculation".
Other regional tensions, such as border skirmishes between China and India and China's intransigence over the South China Sea, have worsened in recent years.
"We need to also prepare for a post-Covid world that is poorer, more dangerous and more disorderly," Mr Morrison said on Wednesday.

"The farmer thought for a moment, then said, "Yeah, one time my neighbour's daughter, a fine looking gal, got lost. We formed a posse and went to look for her, and when we found her, we all took turns to screw her."
"I can't print that!" the young man exclaimed. "Can't you think of anything else that happened, which made you happy?"The farmer thought for a while longer, then smiled. "Yep! One time a neighbour's sheep got lost. We formed a posse to look for it, and when we found it, we all took turns to screw it."
Again, the young man said "I can't print that, either! Let's try another approach. Has anything ever happened around here that made you really sad?"
The old farmer dropped his head in shame. After a couple of seconds he looked up timidly at the young man and said, "This one time, I got lost…"
Mexican Government Indicts 46 Officials in Student Mass Disappearance Case
The charges are all related to the September 2014 mass disappearance of 43 students on their way to a protest when they were kidnapped by police and are believed to have been turned over to cartel members. The fate of the students remains unknown however, as Breitbart Texas reported at the time, theories point to cartel members killing and incinerating them. Other allegations remain that Mexico's government covered up the case and manipulated the evidence.

"Good thing we (Cheltenham) didn't make it on the map otherwise we would be looking at it head first," one wrote.
"Better get the winter willies out. Sorry woolies, the winter woolies," another commented.
"You would think it would be smaller given how cold it is," a third said.
Another questioned whether the Facebook post had been looked at before it was sent out.
"Did anyone at the council check this before posting it? I haven't laughed so much for a long time."

Sharing the story of China's development miracle: a UN Resident Coordinator's blog

What can African countries learn from China's success in lifting millions out of poverty?
Arriving in Guangzhou as a first-time visitor to China, I could not help but think of former U.S Secretary of State Henry Kissinger's description of what he saw as an underdeveloped provincial city in the 1980s.
As I gazed at the city's architecture and infrastructure from the airport and hotel during my 21-day quarantine period, I felt amazed as if my plane had taken me back to Dubai, which is another city that represents another iconic demonstration of dramatic transformation.
Looking at this city from this lens as I spent three weeks in isolation gave me a unique perspective through which to view this city's history while considering China's meteoric rise in recent decades.
A development miracle to be shared with the world

In lifting nearly 800 million people from extreme poverty over the past four decades as well as the nearly 100 million poor rural citizens in the past eight years, China's accomplishments are simply remarkable.
The story of its development into the world's second-largest economy and its key takeaways
are of great significance, which we must share with other developing nations, especially those in Africa, where I was last posted as UN Resident Coordinator in Kenya.
Whether in manufacturing, its open market access, or its agricultural sectors, China's has a breadth of development experience worth learning from.
Consider this; over 40 per cent of Africa's agricultural produce is wasted every year due to post harvest loss.
Africa should be the breadbasket of the world, but yet it imports nearly US 60-70 billion dollars' worth of food.
In this Decade of Action for the SDGs, our direction is clear. We leave no one behind.
With these remaining challenges present as we embark on the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the United Nations Country Team in China now stands in a unique position to cooperate with the Government of China and apply these successes in Africa and other nations in the Global South.
Working with a champion for multilateralism
Rather than shirk from international cooperation, China has shown its firm belief in the principles of multilateralism.
Despite the stresses that the COVID-19 pandemic has placed on international cooperation, China has acted in tenacity and compassion, joining hands with other nations to face this global challenge.
As I witnessed in Kenya, China's donations of personal protective equipment and other supplies played a critical role during the disruption in global supply chains in March 2020.
And its preventative public health response has set a model for the world to adopt in slowing the virus's spread to save lives and livelihoods.
As President Xi Jinping noted at the Davos Forum, "winter cannot stop the pace of spring". Mankind will overcome the COVID-19 pandemic.
Whether it's the continued investments in South-South Cooperation or the Belt and Road Initiative, we see China moving forward to build an ecosystem that provides a network for prosperity, well-being and education on a global scale. Economic progress is mutually reinforcing and interdependent. The human race cannot be decoupled just as technology and humanity cannot be decoupled.

Ambitious and determined to win
My arrival here is one of fate.
At the age of 9, as a boy in Chinatown, Kolkata, India, I found a pair of brown boots at the markets, simply too expensive for my family.
The Chinese shopkeeper then came over, hand on shoulder, and handed me a bag where I later found the exact boots in my size.
Upon returning to this store, the shopkeeper told my parents said that he once had a son my age, whom he lost due to a cholera outbreak.
My mother reminded me of this story upon my nomination by the UN Secretary-General Mr Antonio Guterres, to serve as UN Resident Coordinator in China.
Every day I am here, I am inspired by what I see around me, what China has achieved and can achieve as a country.
The maturity and spirit of a country with 5,000 years of civilization.
I pledge to keep enhancing my knowledge of China, understand its trends, maintain a spirit of innovation as we explore new partnerships with the private sector, and give full play to the UN family's initiatives.
As I continue on my journey as the UN Resident Coordinator in China, I lead a UN Country Team that will deliver as one.
I hope that the Government of China and its people see us make progress so that they can say that this is a United Nations that is fit for purpose, fulfils its mission and lives up to the vision of the Secretary-General.

Dallas, Morning News, Arts Day, March 3, 2004, page 14.
SPIKE!
Trio of artist dream large for final edition of Belo Sculpture Series
It's an occupational disease for sculptors who, faced with an empty room, can't wait to fill it. Three prominent Texans, Martin Delabano of Dallas, Annette Lawrence of Denton and Jesus Moroles of Rockport, take advantage of the opportunity in a spirited McKinney Avenue Contemporary show titled "Essential Space."
The exhibition is part of the Belo Foundation Sculpture Series, a three year project now in its final edition. The effort has been well invested, as a total of nine artists have pushed to meet the challenge of creating large-scale works designed for specific spaces. Material this year range from humble to elegant, concepts whimsical to poetic.
Ms. Lawrence transforms a whited cube into a metaphysical wonderland using nothing more than cotton string, brown paper, packing tape and Elmer's glue. Mr. Delabano squeezes a 10-foot tall caricature of the family dog Spike into a tight space, securing him to the wall with a chunky chain. Mr. Molroles crams more than a dozen figurative works cared from granite, a hard and unforgiving stone, into one long gallery, adding a bronze abstraction and latex glove self -portrait from the mid-1970s fro context. Based on comic relief and sheer rule of wit, Mr. Delabano takes the prize. SPIKE!, a gawky creature with a long, red tongue, generously proportioned genitals and pointy ears, appears to be smiling at the observer, oblivious to either his light or the giant bone at his feet.
His mixed heritage is echoed in the hodgepodge of wood and scrap metal used to make him. An expressive charcoal drawing that served as a study points to Mr. Delabano's considerable talents as a draftsman.
SPIKE! is intended to make us laugh and giggle, says Mr. Delabano, who did his share of biting social commentary in his younger days.
"Building SPIKE! on this scale was pure foolishness," he admits. "Thankfully, my father once told me that you've got to allow for the fool in everyone." The remark pays homage to the late Barney Delabano, a noted painter and longtime Dallas Museum of Art exhibition designer.
Ms. Lawrence, a University of North Texas professor wo puts mathematical systems to poetic use. , invites visitors to walk under her multidimensional Quarter, which emits ever-shifting patterns of light and shadow. It's all about the rhythm of life and the transient nature of our existence. At the same time, Ms. Lawrence makes viewers keenly aware of how their own bodies affect the space as they pass beneath an ephemeral canopy made by adhering diagonal layers of string to the wall.
Achieving these effects within the restrictive linear format Ms. Lawrenecne imposes on herself is no small feat. And here, as in her recent show at Dunn and Brown Contemporary, she imbues the work with lyrical overtones by allowing the rows of string to suggest bars of music and the knots notes.
Known for this prolific output, Mr. Moroles has no fewer than five shows in Dallas this season. While much of his work is abstract, everything here relates to the figure. Most pieces are granite, but he selects a variety of shades, from soft pinks to green and black.
Working with assistants in his Rockport studio, Mr. Morles embeds wavy patterns into some stone and polishes others to a glossy finish. To distinguish the two sides of a giant hand symbolic of the artist at work, he chiseled creases into the palm and smoothed fingernails into the front.
Manipulating the stone has become almost second nature at this point.
"I always say we don't carve granite, we tear it, " he says in the brochure that accompanies his concurrent show at the Latino 'Cultural Center. "It's like you take paper and tear it and you have that rough deckle edge, and the reason people like that rough edge is because it shows the fiber inside the paper."
Three tall, silhouetted female figures titled Tres Mujeres, (three Ladies) serve as the centerpiece, and a granite mask akin to a pre-Columbian object alludes to the artist's heritage. Benches with curved seats are strategically spotted around the room. A digitally altered photograph of Mr. Moroles standing next to Ming's Tomb in China introduces a note of irony.
At the conclusion of this year's show, the Belo Foundation will produce an illustrated catalog on all three exhibitions. It will include essays by Sue Graze, executive director of Arthouse at the Jones Center in Austin; Charles Dee Mitchell, an independent Dallas art critic and contributor to the Dallas Morning News; and Phillip Collin, chief curator at the African American Museum in Fair Park.

A mother has given her first television interview since she was ordered to stop breastfeeding her baby in a public swimming pool.
Appearing on This Morning, Stephanie Wilby, 22, mother of four-month-old Leo, defended her right to breastfeed in the toddler pool at Manchester Aquatics Centre - an issue which divided public opinion when it came to light last week.
'I don't see the unhygienic part of this,' she said, when host Ruth Langsford expressed her misgivings about the potential dangers of feeding her son in the water - citing the veruccas, germs and bacteria present in public baths.
Stephanie Wilby (right) defended her right to breastfeed in the pool, but journalist Sally Windsor (left) described it as 'gross'
Stephanie said it would have been more dangerous to feed in the changing rooms - where staff directed her - saying they were 'dirty and unhygienic.'
It was reported last week that Stephanie was 'waist-deep' in the toddlers' pool, but she now denies this, saying she was standing in the shallow end, with Leo raised up out of the water.
When asked why didn't initially sit beside the pool to nurse Leo, she explained: 'This wasn't about a feed - it was to soothe my son. If I'd left the pool, it wouldn't have been right for Leo.
'There was no safety risk, there was no health risk.'

At the end of the interview, Leo joined his mother on the This Morning sofa.
'How could you not feed him?' the doting mother asked Eamon and Ruth.
'He shouldn't be the boss all the time,' was Eamon's reply.
And viewers seemed to agree with him, with only 26 per cent in favour of breastfeeding in public pools in a poll conducted by the show.

BREASTFEEDING - THE DEBATE
Thousands of readers have had their say on the website and on Twitter about whether Stephanie Wilby should have been breastfeeding little Leo in the pool:
Lily McPhilimey @PixiegirlLily tweeted: 'No breastfeeding #MailOnline I'm all for feeding but even I wouldn't there!'
Martin, from Oxford commented: 'I don't see there is a problem. breastfeeding is the most natural thing in the world. I worry about some people I really do.'
xcountmeinx, from Hereford, said: 'Not in a swimming pool for heavens sake.'
Living life by FISH, from London, commented: 'Fair enough - I can't eat in the swimming pool nor can you little one! But it's not "indecent"'
Linda Malaga, from Malaga in Spain added: 'I agree wholeheartedly with breastfeeding in public provided it is done in a discreet manner and not in full view of everyone. Feeding in a public swimming pool is completely wrong! After all you wouldn't eat your lunch whilst waist deep in a public swimming pool would you????'
Kim from North Lincs said: 'Totally disgusting, why should the rest of us and our kids be exposed to her feeding her baby in a pool, there is a time and a place for heavens sake. Sick of breast feeding mums trying to make a point at the expense of the rest if us.'
Touchwood, from Falkirk added: 'There's a time and a place; this wasn't the latter.'
Sandy Brown, from London, said: 'What is wrong with these women who do this. If you wish to feed your kid, then go somewhere else. Not where people are swimming.'
Jeanie, from Devon, commented: 'I'm concerned that she was 'waist deep' in the water, it doesn't seem the safest place for a tiny baby breastfeeding or not. could have been handled better though obviously.'
Louby87, from Grimsby, said: 'Certainly not the place for this. She must have known her baby was due for a feed so why get in the pool, she should have waited until after.'
Sue, from Sheffield, said: 'She definitely should not do that in a swimming pool really disgusting.'
Diamonds are forever, from Hampshire, added: 'Yes he was right !!! There is a time and place for every thing...I wouldn't want to swim in her breast milk...nor if or when her child throws it back up again......Get real its a public bath !!'
Last week, Mrs Wilby, who is on maternity leave from her customer service job at British Gas, said: 'I should be allowed to breastfeed where I want.
'As long as I do so tactfully and I am in within the law then I should not be harassed by people telling me to stop. I was humiliated and it was very distressing.'
She said one staff member told her breastfeeding in a pool was akin to a swimmer urinating in the water and also amounted to 'indecent exposure'.
'They made a real scene,' said the mother-of-two.
'They were saying me breastfeeding was indecent exposure but I was covered more than most of the other swimmers.
'One staff member also said he would stop a man urinating in the pool and that is why they did not want me breastfeeding in the water.'
Bosses at the state-of-the-art Manchester Aquatics Centre, a training venue for last year's Olympics and Paralympics, have now apologised about the incident on Sunday afternoon.
Mrs Wilby from Denton, Manchester, said she had only moved to the side of the toddlers' pool for a few moments to feed her son.
'It was just a matter of a few seconds but the response from staff was dreadful. The manner in which they treated me was aggressive and upsetting and caused me major embarrassment.
'If they did not like it they could have asked me quietly to stop,' she added.
'I would have still questioned their reasons but it would not have been as inappropriate.'
Mrs Wilby, whose husband also works in customer service, added: 'This was the worst possible customer service I have ever come across.'
The family have made an official complaint.
The aquatics centre, one of the largest in the country, is run by Serco and Manchester Sport and Leisure Trust, part of Manchester council, which is investigating.
The Equality Act 2010 has made it illegal for anyone to ask a breastfeeding woman to leave a public place such as a cafe, shop or public transport.
However, it is not against the law to prevent a woman breastfeeding where there are legitimate health and safety risks.
Although restaurants and cafes generally do not have separate breastfeeding areas, some store chains such as Tesco and Boots do provide dedicated areas away from women's toilets.
Other businesses have begun displaying stickers on windows telling mothers that breastfeeding is welcome on the premises.
New mother Stephanie Wilby was ordered to stop breastfeeding her four-month-old son Leo in a swimming pool at the Manchester Aquatic Centre after staff claimed feeding her son was 'indecent exposure' and similar to someone urinating in the pool
Councillor Rosa Battle, executive member for culture and leisure at Manchester council, said: 'We keenly encourage new mothers to use our leisure facilities and they have every right to breastfeed their babies when they need to do so, in line with existing legislation.
'We have also asked that the Trust and Serco review their existing policies, to make sure that they reflect the law.
'As a breastfeeding mother myself, I expect staff contracted to work in our leisure facilities to understand and respect women's right to breastfeed in public places.'
A spokesman for Serco said: 'We are fully supportive of mothers breastfeeding their child whilst in our centres.
'Serco's operating practices are to encourage breastfeeding in a safe and comfortable environment for both the mother and child rather than it taking place in the swimming pool.
'We will fully investigate this matter and where appropriate we will amend our policies and put in place appropriate training for staff.
'We apologise for any inconvenience that was caused.'
'YOU CAN'T BREASTFEED HERE': WHAT MOTHER WAS TOLD AT JOBCENTRE
Tara Powell was asked to stop breastfeeding her son Preston at the Jobcentre in Bromley
The Mail Online revealed last Wednesday a mother of five burst into tears after she said she was kicked out of a Jobcentre for breastfeeding her baby.
Tara Powell had taken her four-month-old son Preston with her to an appointment at the centre in Bromley, south-east London, where she was meeting to discuss her income support money.
Miss Powell, of Orpington, said the interviewer then told her she felt 'uncomfortable'. But the mother replied: 'There's nothing uncomfortable about me breastfeeding my son, it's natural.'
However the interviewer was said to have told her the breastfeeding was 'disgusting', adding: 'If you do not stop it, I'm terminating this interview'.
Mrs Powell added: 'She was raising her voice then she kicked me out and ended the interview.
'I was crying because she did that to me.She kicked me out for breastfeeding my son. I have never ever felt so embarrassed.'
Miss Powell said a manager apologised following the incident, and told her the appointment would have to be rebooked.
A Department for Work and Pensions spokesman said Miss Powell was offered a private place to feed her baby after the meeting was ended, adding that the incident was being investigated.
She said: 'We have apologised to Ms Powell for any inconvenience and confusion caused during her visit to the Jobcentre.
'Mothers are welcome to feed their babies when visiting us. This can take place wherever the mother feels comfortable - either in a public area or a private room if one is available.'
A spokesman for We Do It In Public, a campaign group supporting breastfeeding in public, said: 'Perceptions of breastfeeding in public still continues to be a sticking point for both new and experienced mums who choose to breastfeed.
'It's such a shame that as a society we are still seeing cases where people are asked to leave public places, just because they are feeding their baby.'
