In Plan 9 From Outer Space, Ed Wood droned, "We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives." This weekend, the 5th annual Golden Plains music festival features an inaugural keynote address by noted futurist Dr Peter Ellyard, self-confessed optimist and author of Designing 2050. And so it is in a spirit of optimism that we have gathered together some web links that point to the best of recent writing on the web about the future, particularly as it relates to books, writing and ideas.
Here's a piece imagining the writer of the future. Here's another, a longer, more serious essay entitled 'In the Age of Screens'. February saw the publication in the US of a book called The Late American Novel, in which writers speculate on the future of fiction - here's a short review, here's the introduction and here's an excerpt. Also last month was an excellent article in Brain Pickings gathering together some of the recent trends in publishing and touching on the publication on a new book by John Thompson, Merchants of Culture, which takes a big-picture view on publishing and its future. We at the Dailies have visited the future only recently.

Halloween is my favorite holiday. I think because it reminds me of being a kid: choosing what costume to wear, watching scary movies, and of course, planning "the route". This involved plotting the best houses to hit first, (the ones with the elaborate décor and the haunted house sound effects). Those neighbors would have the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Snickers—we just sensed it in our molars.
These houses weren't everywhere, of course. They were scattered among the houses with a dim porch lights, maybe a sad skeleton hanging in the window, and fall leaves hiding the walkway… no doubt, they'd be handing out the gum, licorice or other uninspired candy.
Of course, the worst of all was the house with all the lights out, no invitation to approach, no Halloween spirit, no regard for the joy of children on a sugar high. These were the houses you walked right by—the ones your older brother and his friends visited later in the night with a carton of eggs and a few rolls of toilet paper.
Is your website one of the favored Halloween houses in the neighborhood, lights on with an uninviting look, or are your lights out entirely with nobody home? By applying these tricks, you will treat yourself to increased visitorship and, ultimately, more sales.
You want visitors. But you also want the right visitors. From the start, be sure your porch light is on for the search engines: this means you are showing up prominently when a customer performs a search for your type of product or service on Google or Bing or Yahoo.
How? Strategically choose keywords that search engines will easily find. Optimize your pages and create content, links, and alt tags for your images that include the words and phrases your type of buyer is looking for. Also, periodically monitor Google Analytics for trouble spots, bounces and drop-off rates. A broken link, slow-loading content or confusing navigation can discourage visitors from actually reaching your door.
Once the right visitor has reached your site, be sure to treat them to dynamic, rewarding content—information that captivates, engages, and educates. With easy Content Management Systems, it is easy to embed fast-loading videos, social feeds, and blogs to keep your content fresh. And, be sure your general content and online store offerings are seasonally appropriate. A recent study by Limelight Networks found that fresh content was the first or second requirement of websites by 68% of people. That's almost seven in every ten of your website visitors who feel that fresh content is vital.
Take an hour to review your site content and note all tired or expired copy. If you still have a 'Summer Sippers' offer in your online shop, you're handing out stale circus peanuts.
As you drop two or three Kit Kats into their plastic pumpkin, tell your visitors to spread the word. Don't be shy to ask for online reviews and social media shares. Not only will customer reviews provide fresh content for search engines, according to Reevoo, reviews lift your sales by an average of 18%. And, customers who review your product are 105% more likely to make a purchase from you while visiting your site (Bazaarvoice, Conversation Index, Q2 2011).
Ask for reviews on your product pages. Make the process as simple as possible—even a star rating offers buying confidence to perspective customers.
Ask for reviews post-purchase. Timing is key here. Be sure you have given your buyer enough time to receive and potentially sample your product. Send an email that asks if the product was delivered as expected. Thank your customer for their purchase and ask them to rate the product. UK retailer Marks & Spencer discovered a 400% increase in customer reviews when they launched a post-purchase email campaign.
Remind your social media followers to leave reviews. This can be done in creative ways such as asking for photos of your wine being enjoyed or anecdotes about how your wine made for a memorable occasion.
The beauty of online presence is that your potential buyers trick-or-treat every day. Keep the lights on, stock up on the good candy and be ready for that doorbell to ring over and over again.


Nicolas Colsaerts won the Volvo World Match Play Championship at Finca Cortesin in Andalucia, Spain. The Belgian defeated Northern Ireland's Graeme McDowell on the final hole.
Colsaerts had faced Paul Lawrie in the morning semi-final and it looked as though the Scot would progress easily after the early exchanges; Lawrie was four-up through the first four holes. But Colsaerts fought back and levelled the match on the back nine. The Scot moved one ahead again after the 16th but then a thunderstorm called a temporary halt to proceedings.
When play resumed Colsaerts was able to capitalise on his length on the par-5 last by getting into the greenside bunker in two. He got up and down from there, and the match was halved.
Extra holes were required and Colsaerts prevailed on the second of them – the 18th once again.
In the other semi-final, Graeme McDowell came through a hard fought contest against Spain's Rafael Cabrera-Bello.
In the final, Colsaerts gained the upper hand three times towards the end of the front nine but each time the Northern Irishman levelled.
At the start of the back nine the pair were all square but McDowell made a bogey at the 11th and then another at the 13th to fall two behind. He got one back at the 14th by driving the par-4 green, but went two down again after the 16th.
Colsaerts gave McDowell a glimmer of hope with a three-putt on the 17th, but the 29-year-old composed himself to close the match out on the 18th.
The victory was an important one for the Belgian. Not only did he secure a sizeable winner's cheque, but he has also moved into an automatic qualifying spot for the Ryder Cup.

Forest Service Job Corps creates new opportunities for young people
Students at the Oconaluftee Job Corps Center receive hands-on training that can lead to forestry careers. USDA Forest Service photo by James Lawler.
NORTH CAROLINA-Job Corps was created in 1964 as part of President Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty and Great Society initiatives. These programs sought to expand economic and social opportunities for Americans, especially minorities and the poor.
Job Corps was modeled after the Civilian Conservation Corps, a program founded in 1933 to relieve unemployment during the Great Depression by providing conservation work to young men. Projects included fighting forest fires, cruising timber, planting trees and maintaining forest roads and trails.
Currently, the USDA Forest Service operates 24 Job Corps Civilian Conservation Centers all over the country-with 11 in the South-to provide training and education for young people. The Job Corps mission is to help young people ages 16 through 24 improve their lives through vocational and academic training aimed at gainful employment and career pathways.
This fall, the Southern Research Station Forest Inventory and Analysis program came together with Lurleen B. Wallace Community College in Andalusia, Alabama, and the Oconaluftee Job Corp Civilian Conservation Center in Cherokee, North Carolina, to discuss diversity in the workplace and how to increase hiring of under-represented minorities within the Forest Service. The meeting focused on building relationships with a multitude of partners.
The community college offers a two-year degree in forest technology and trains students for positions as forest technicians. This curriculum emphasizes the development of practical forestry skills. Students can participate in a broad range of field operations, such as timber cruising, control burning, stand description, development of forest management plans and special use permit programs. Professor Adam Bowers has proposed changes to the college curriculum to prepare its graduates to successfully compete for positions within Forest Inventory and Analysis.

This collaboration among the center, Job Corps center and station will deliver better education, practical research and field-based experience for students - and thus provide students with a greater opportunity for employment.
Southern Research Station Forest Inventory and Analysis has a vision to develop students as forest technicians with an increased emphasis and focus on diversity, bringing awareness to under-represented groups and underserved communities. Doing so will help the agency meet Chief Moore's commitment to increase hiring of recent graduates over the next few years. Of Job Corps, Chief Moore said, "Forest Service Job Corps Civilian Conservation Center graduates are a precious resource available to the Forest Service to cultivate and prepare a new generation of conservation stewards to care for the land and serve people. As leaders, I would like us to make a renewed commitment to employing our Job Corps CCC graduates."

Choosing a landscaper can be a time consuming process, especially if you are in Shepparton. There are a number of talented and experienced landscapers in the local area and we want to help you choose the right one for you! Most people have a set budget in mind, as well as a specific vision they want to achieve. Asking your landscaper the following questions will help you determine who can best get your landscaping project done for a great price and to a high standard.
Most landscapers will be happy to provide a free quote. If they don't, it can be a worrying sign. Offering a free quote is a great way to attract new clients as it shows genuine interest in potential jobs. If a landscaper isn't prepared to come to your home or business and quote on a job, it might be a good idea to look elsewhere.
Choosing a landscaping company in Shepparton that offers more than one service could potentially save you time and money. For example, Goulburn Valley Sprinklers & Landscaping offers a complete irrigation and landscaping service. We design, install and maintain irrigation systems, as well as offering a professional turf service and landscaping. This means our clients, whether residential or commercial, save time and money by booking all their services with the one provider.
If you don't feel comfortable asking this question directly, do some research online. Have a look at the social media profiles of local Shepparton landscaping companies and see if there are any comments or testimonials from previous customers. Don't be put off by one (or even two) negative comments as this happens to all businesses; just get a general feel for their reputation. Hipages is also a great resource for hiring a landscaper in Shepparton.

The essence of offering factoring broker services is fairly simple. Help companies sell invoices to gain quick access to cash.
But if you are only concentrating on the "money" side of the business, then you are only focusing on half of the issue.
There are many reasons invoice factoring is beneficial (vs. getting some sort of traditional loan or line of credit).
So why do companies choose to go the Factoring route?
We all know that money now is better than money later. A business that is short on cash can not pay it's own bills let alone take advantage of deals that come their way. With factoring, the business has cash in as little as 48 hours after an invoice is created.
Not that most businesses can qualify for a bank loan nowadays anyways, but a loan is a debt, plain and simple. Any debt affects the business going forward (and not in a positive way). Factoring is not a debt, nor is it a loan. It is merely the sale of an invoice at a discount.
The business decides how much or how little cash it needs. When it comes to Factoring, the business does not need to sell all of its invoices. They can pick and choose which ones make sense – and when they need the money the most.
Instead of "hoping" that their next client pays on time, the Factoring Company can assist with "new client screening." This can help ensure that clients don't waste time (or money) agreeing to invoice customers that are not going to pay.
Matter of fact, only two of the "reasons" above are actually directly related to money (Cash Now and No Debt). The other two are more related to service (Flexibly and Screening).
If you are only concentrating on the "money" side of the business, then you are only focusing on half of the issue.
Sure, money is a big hot button for someone considering Factoring, but, like most things, money is not really the primary motivation – it is what the money gets you.
Can you make it easier for someone to make payroll? Can you help them take advantage of bulk discounts? Can you help them expand their business and take on bigger clients? Can you help them avoid extending terms to risky customers?
Having money may be the answer to many of those questions, but today's Factoring broker services are about much more than just money. Service is back. Value is back. Your marketing and prospecting materials should reflect this!
By providing great value to your clients you will be building long lasting relationships that turn into repeat business and referrals.


Anthropology of food. Consumption and social and cultural food habits. Activities related to food: hunting, wild collection, fishing, agriculture, and raising livestock. Gastronomy and the culinary arts. Food concepts and practices among ethnic and religious groups.
The subject Food and Culture is within the subject of Public Health and Community Nutrition, being the community fact of human nutrition the one that works in this subject. The Science and Technology of food is responsible for processing, processing, maintaining and distributing food products. Food, however, is not only a product to be processed and sold, but is part of a total social fact that must be taken into account. That is why the subject of Food and Culture, brings students from the Food Science and Technology Degree to the cultural, social, historical and technological aspects of human nutrition, as well as sociological, economic and political aspects related to the production and distribution of food. With all this, this subject provides a global vision about the food to / the future / a food technologist, beyond its composition and production, to know and consider those other aspects related to food that are part of the human process to choose what and when to eat, how to select them, with whom to share them, how to taste them, etc; as well as more specific questions related to the sociocultural function of food, such as the social and political results of these decisions and the influences of social change on eating habits. In this way, it aims to locate food technology in the context of the social world of food, and participate in the resolution of problems related to the feeding of human populations.
03b. Identify scientific texts of social anthropology and understand the role of interdisciplinary communication.
07d. Identify the alimentary characteristics of the globality and the specificities of specific cultural and social environments of the present.
U4Introduction to the food question.
THE CURRENT DEBATES IN THE FOOD SOCIOLOGY of CECILIA DÍAZ MÉNDEZ.
The late-modern diner is in an ambiguous position to make decisions about what to eat or not. The options have increased complicating the elections, and the agencies that generate standards do not offer an unequivocal, but rather complex and diverse and even contradictory orientation on how to eat well. Choosing is increasingly difficult and requires having food consumption criteria that allow decisions about what is good to eat.
Relationships and practices that change the nutritional reality. An approach from ecological and feminist anthropology.
A. The theoretical part of the subject has the evaluation conditions, to choose one.
1. A continuous evaluation that consists in answering the questions formulated from the Kahoot application! once each subject is finished. Five test type tests were carried out, with 10 questions per subject, in which 0.10 points each will be assessed. All tests must be carried out compulsorily. If the continuous assessment is not passed, the final exam must be taken. Either of the two forms represents 60% of the final grade.
2. The other modality of examination of the theoretical part will be the final exam, also the readings assigned to each subject. It also represents 60% of the final grade. The exam will consist of six specific questions on the topics of the taught syllabus and the mandatory readings indicated. Each question will be assessed with a maximum point. A question blank, misery or poorly answered penalized with 0.25 points.
C. The remaining 20% ¿¿of the grade corresponds to active participation in the theoretical and practical classes and is continuous evaluation. All parties will have to be approved (kahoot! / Final exam, projects, active participation) to pass the subject.

Cuatro años después fue el subcampeón de la misma. Un año más tarde quedó subcampeón de la Recopa de Europa de fútbol en la temporada 1967/1968.

San Carlos Water ist eine Bucht auf Ostfalkland, am Falklandsund. Die Bucht ist bis zu 15 km lang  und 2,5 km breit. Das Ufer der Bucht liegt im Durchschnitt 20 m über dem Meeresspiegel und  erreicht eine maximale Höhe von 220 m. Der Tidenhub erreicht hier einen Spitzenwert von höchstens 1,6 m.

Die Bucht erhielt ihren Namen von dem spanischen Schiff San Carlos, das 1768 hier Station machte. Während des Falklandkrieges befanden sich hier die ersten Landungsorte britischer Einheiten. So wurden im Rahmen der Operation Sutton die Siedlungen Ajax Bay, San Carlos, Port San Carlos und Camp Verde als Landungstellen ausgewählt. Nach der erfolgreichen Operation und der Besetzung der Landungspunkte, musste die Royal Navy jedoch empfindliche Verluste in der Bucht während der Schlacht von San Carlos hinnehmen.

Q: Visual bug in Dock after macOS Mojave installation After installing the macOS Mojave update, I get a strange visual bug in the Dock from time to time. It disappears when I click on something in the Dock or if I try to make a screenshot (that's why I had to capture the screenshot using camera instead of screenshots).

*

*There is a horizontal line between the Mail and Calendar app icons and one in the middle of the Notes icon:

*There is a horizontal line in the middle of the ForkLift icon:

Note: When installing the macOS Mojave update, my Mac got stuck on the analytics screen (like described here: Mojave install froze on "analytics", successful force reboot- but did it miss anything?) and I had to restart it manually. Maybe that has corrupted my installation?
I'm using macOS Mojave 10.14 on a 2014 MacBook Pro.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Edit:
It looks like that this bug isn't linked to specific icons on the Dock. It appears randomly and disappears when I click on the dock. It looks a bit like it only appears next to active apps most of the time. It's still present after several restarts of my MacBook.

Edit 2:
I was able to reproduce this bug. I appears every time I minimize a window. You can see it here:

You have to look closely to the Postman icon (the 6th from the left), the Mail icon (10th) and the Notes icon (12th) after I minimize Chrome. You can see the bright square until I click on the Chrome icon again.
Edit 3:
I updated my Mac to 10.14.2 and the bug still appears.

A: I have this exact problem while connected on an external monitor using a Macbook Pro 2017. The problem is the window animation, I experience this problem using the Scale Effect animation but it disappears as soon as I am using the Genie Effect. That's an acceptable workaround, still I wonder how this is not fixed on Apple's side.

Given that, not surprisingly, it's really all about politics: family dynasties, secretive back-room bargaining and backstabbing as well as plenty of revenge served up with ice and fire.
As we dive into the last epic season of GOT, can local fans of the record-breaking series — which hasn't aired new episodes in almost two years — find insights and parallels between Niagara County's 2019 political scene and the one [...]
It got pretty geeky at the Buffalo Niagara Coalition for Open Government's recent forum featuring Susan Lerner from Common Cause and Alex Camrada of Reinvent Albany, two state-level advocacy groups seeking to establish local connections.
Subjects ranged from the need in smaller communities for elected representatives to file financial disclosure forms to the state comptroller losing the ability to review contracts and how that contributed to the Buffalo Billion corruption as well as professionalizing the state's board of elections and making sure "shadow government affiliated non-profits" follow the same open meeting and FOIL laws as [...]
Corning GlassBarge fires up N.T. on tour of Erie Canal
Residents of the Twin Cities on Wednesday stepped onto a barge on the Erie Canal and learned about the art and science of glass and its role in the history of New York State.
"In 1868, the Brooklyn Flint Glass Company relocated to Corning N.Y., via the New York Waterways, and evolved into the company that is today known as Corning Inc.
To honor the 150th anniversary of this journey, the Corning Museum of Glass launched GlassBarge—a 30' x 80' canal barge equipped with its patented all-electric glassmaking equipment— in Brooklyn Bridge Park on May 17.
GlassBarge travelled north on the Hudson, then westward along the [...]

Iraqi Christians celebrate in town retaken from Islamic State

Agence France-Presse, Qaraqosh | ByAgence France-Presse
Iraqi Christians celebrated the feast of the Immaculate Conception on Friday in the town of Qaraqosh that was previously occupied for three years by jihadists of the Islamic State group.
The bell tower of the church of the Immaculate Conception is still scarred by war, but its interior has been cleaned and signs of damage erased.
Some 300 faithful, mostly women and the elderly, attended Friday's service.
Qaraqosh is some 30 kilometres (18 miles) from Iraq's second city Mosul, and before being taken by IS had some 50,000 residents.
However, only a small number returned after the town was retaken from the jihadists.
Bishop Nuel Tuma, 63, said the annual mass used to attract a far larger congregation.
"But today people are busy rebuilding their homes," he said.
The first mass in the town following its liberation was held on October 30 last year.
"This is our first celebration of Holy Mary after three years when we were displaced," said Hanaa Qasha, a 48-year-old teacher.
"We were able to hold mass in the Church of the Immaculate Conception despite the damage caused by the evil ones.
"But we are people who love life," she added.
Qaraqosh used to have the greatest concentration of Christians in the country.
However, in mid-2014, Christians were pushed out as IS seized vast swathes of territory in northern Iraq.

Q: Rendezvous between two accelerating objects from opposite sides I have two objects. Object 1 is travelling from A to B, a distance of (let's say) 1,000,000km. It can accelerate at 2g, and will accelerate up to the halfway point and then decelerate until the end (so initial and final velocity are both 0m/s).
Object 2 is already at B, can accelerate at 20g, and wants to intercept object 1 as soon as possible after object 1 leaves A. It has to not just reach the same position as object 1, but be at the same speed as object 1 when it intercepts.
In essence, object 2 must accelerate toward object 1, then turn around and accelerate the opposite direction, so that it matches speed with object 1 when the two meet, in the shortest possible time.
Is there a (set of) formula(s) I can use to solve this problem?
This is not homework; I need this for a science fiction story I'm writing.

A: Here are the equations
$V_A = 2gT$,  where $T$ is the total time of travel.
$V_B = -20gT_1+20gT_2$  , where $T_1$ is for the first part of Bs journey and $T_2$ for the second part.
$T=T_1+T_2$
$V_A = V_B$
$S_A = S_B$ , where these distances are measured from A positive towards B
$S_A=0.5(2g)T^2$
$S_B=1\times10^9+0.5(-20g){T_1}^2-20gT_1T_2+0.5(20g){T_2}^2$
7 equations with 7 unknowns, solving with g=9.8 gives $T_1 = 2043.134$, $T_2=2497.1639$ and the distance $S=2.020202\times10^8$m from A.

A: This kind of problem does not quite lend itself to be solved with some set of mathematical expressions because of the following: over time the acceleration of each of the objects has a discontinuity: Object 1 is described as having the direction of acceleration reverse at the halfway point.
With object 1 at least you know in advance when the change of reversal of direction of acceleration occurs. But of course the moment in time of the reversal of acceleration of Object 2 is the very thing you are looking for.

It appears to me that drawing graphs will be a good strategy here.
I just did an internet search with the search terms:
online function plotting
There are multiple websites offering an environment for plotting functions.

The plot of the position of Object 1 as a function of time is a given: with uniform acceleration the position as a function of time is a parabola. To plot the trajectory of Object 1 you need to declare a pair of functions: one for the stretch from start to halfway, the other for the stretch from halfway to the end point.
Then you declare a pair of functions for the position-as-a-function-of-time for Object 2.
For that pair you implement a shared variable for the point in time when Object 1 reverses its direction of acceleration.
From there it will be trial-and-error. You shift the point of acceleration reversal of Object 2 to find the earliest point that allows Object 2 to overtake object 1 before Object 1 completes its journey.
In addition, by tweaking the ratio of acceleration of Object 1 and Object 2 you can look for a scenario that maximizes dramatic effect.

The advantage of a graphing approach, I think, is that once you have homed in on the answer you will know with certainty that it is the optimum you are looking for. I assume it can also be solved with formula's, but then (I think) there will be gnawing doubt that maybe there could be an error somewhere.

You would be travelling miles and big roller suitcases, giant backpacks and other luggage would be a big drag. Have a small backpack and carry just the basic essential clothes, toiletries, laptop or a book if you need. Besides, you would have to carry the stroller and car seats for the kids. Perhaps you could rent it from the place you visit.
Living in apartments or town houses is a much better option than hotels. Not only will you save more money but also it's more convenient with a family. Having your own personal kitchen and laundry area can make things very easy with kids. There is more space for the kids to play and the luggage can also be stacked better and won't come in the way. Also don't get the apartment far away from the main city.
Travelling single would mean eating anything and everything you get your hands on while travelling. But things get different when you are travelling with family esp. kids. Food in a new place has good chances of playing around with your immune system. Even though travelling gives the urge to try local street food, but avoid it as much as you can. Stick to the basics and you will be fine.
Don't go city hopping rather keep 4-5 days for each place you visit. Without kids, probably 1-2 days would be enough but with kids you would be going at a slower pace and would need more time each city you visit. This would also give you sufficient time to visit more places and not rush through.
Kids nap a lot and that's a good thing in the travel. Give them books to read or a get a toy for them to play with. Keep them diverted from the fatigue of the travel which will make them cranky and irritable giving a hard time to others passengers.
Visit aquariums, theme parks and let your kids have fun. Travelling means enjoyment and exploring places that are meant for your kids too. Who know you might find them fascinating too.

Technique Tuesday: Slow Snatch
October 18, 2016 /in Olympic Weightlifting /by Joe Micela
Technique Tuesday: Slow Snatch We use this drill to improve Position during the Snatch. Many athletes will rush the movement skipping key points during the 1st & 2nd Pull. We use a 5 count slow controlled movement to the Hip. On #1 the bar is raised off the ground, #2 the bar passes Mid-Shin, #3 the bar passes the Knee, #4 the bar passes Mid-Thigh, and #5 the bar is at the Hip. At that point the athlete's torso is vertical and they are asked to quickly extend and pull themselves under the barbell at full speed. This drill is very demanding on the back as you are controlling the movement at each phase of the lift making sure not to out of position at the 5 key points. We use this drill as a warm up for Snatches performing anywhere between 3-6 sets of 2-3 repetitions. Percentages that can be used are >70% with Beginners and >80% with Experienced lifters.

Coaching Cues: Stay Vertical!
We use the term "Vertical Extension" when describing how we want the athletes body to finish.
In reality the athlete will have a slight lean backward as they are trying to "Finish the Extension". It has been my coaching experience to never verbally communicate to an athlete to lean back during the Final Extension. Doing so can lead to an excessive lean causing the athlete to jump substantially backward which is not desirable. Too much of a hyper-extension of the back can cause the bar to separate from the body. This will result in the bar never reaching it's desired final position. The bar will drop out in front of the athlete. The second common error with athletes leaning back too far during the Final Extension is that the athletes deliberately pulls the bar back with them taking away from the barbells vertical flight causing it to level out into a more horizontal ark/trajectory. Again not favorable, because it is this horizontal ark can lead to the bar missing it's final target and traveling to fast behind the athlete for the athlete to safely stop the momentum it created on the bar. Athletes will most likely "Miss" the bar behind them in a "Looping" fashion.
We want to keep the bar traveling as vertical as possible with minimal Horizontal Displacement as possible. That is why it is Ok to use cue words such as Vertical and Straight to express to the athlete how both the bar and their body wants to finish during Extension. The fact that the athletes body moves backward slightly should, in my opinion, never be communicated to the athlete. They should never consciously be trying to attempt it. Hopefully this Coaching Advice can help you during your next Training Session.

The IFP welcomes the sentencing by the Vryheid Regional Court of two men convicted of murdering Ms Thandazile Mpunzi, who was 20 years old. IFP spokesperson on matters related to the Department of Women, the Hon. Ms Liezl van der Merwe MP, called the sentencing, "appropriate".
The IFP extends it condolences once again to the family of Ms Mpunzi, recognising that the brutality of her murder will be difficult for her loved one's to come to terms with. "For the sake of Thandazile's family, and the families of all victims like her, the IFP will continue to speak up for persons with albinism," said van der Merwe.

Background: Obesity is associated with greater survival in end stage renal disease (ESRD).
Objective: To assess the association between cardiovascular risk factors and renal Prognosis, assessed by eGFR and albumin/ creatinine ratio (ACR), in Congolese Type 2 diabetic patients (T2DM).
Methods: Cross-sectional study that included T2DM followed in the University hospital of Kinshasa. ACR and eGFR were used to assess the renal prognosis according to the KDIGO2012 guideline. A Logistic regression model was used to identify independent determinants of renal prognosis.
Results: Patients (53 % men, 4.5 % in ESRD) were aged 56 ± 11 years and had a median duration of diabetes of 4 years (IQ: 1-10 years). In the whole group, 40.9 % had a low renal risk prognosis versus 24.9 % a moderately increased risk; 13.3 % a high risk and 21.0 % a very high risk. Diabetes duration ≥ 5 years (aOR: 8.69; p < 0.001), SBP > 130 mmHg (ORa: 15.87;p < 0.001), abdominal obesity (aOR: 0.28; p = 0.036) and HbA1c ≥ 64 mmol/mol (8%)(aOR: 0.13; p < 0.001) emerged as independent determinants of very high renal risk.
Conclusions: While obesity in the present study was paradoxically associated with low renal risk, a reverse epidemiology feature, higher SBP and long duration of diabetes emerged as the main determinants of renal prognosis.

In two social event scenes in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, it's implied the Wonder Woman character does not consume alcohol. Non-alcoholic consumption is a characteristic usually associated with Batman who, in this cinematic version, does consume alcohol. She is seen consuming a small amount of alcohol in Wonder Woman, however, when offered some by Steve Trevor.
Wonder Woman was created by the American psychologist and writer William Moulton Marston (pen name: Charles Moulton),[2] and artist Harry G. Peter. Marston's wife, Elizabeth, and their life partner, Olive Byrne,[5] are credited as being his inspiration for the character's appearance.[2][6][7][8][9] Marston's comics featured his ideas on DISC theory,[10] and the character drew a great deal of inspiration from early feminists, and especially from birth control pioneer Margaret Sanger; in particular, her piece "Woman and the New Race".
With the decision to relaunch the DC Universe into the new 52, this was done by the Flashpoint story arc, where the Reverse Flash has modified the past with a vastly different modern DC Universe having resulted. In this universe Diana leads a dystopian society of Amazons that have taken over England after a battle between the Amazons and the Atlanteans led by Aquaman.
The Gods, led by Athena, create the Amazons in Greece to realize their ideals and bring humans into following them. The leader of the Amazons, Hippolyta feels a yearning for a child). She makes a clay form of a child and prays to the Gods. Hearing this the Gods give the clay form, transforming it into a live child blessed with Gaea's gift, life. The Gods grant her various abilities and she grows up as Diana of Themyscira.
I remember when I read in the news that Wonder Woman had been cast and my heart sank ... I'm sure we wouldn't have made the same choice. And then I started paying attention to her, and watching her and looking at her and it was just unbelievable. Frankly, I think they did a better job than I could have because I don't know that I would have scoured the earth as hard to find her ... They were looking for all the same things I would have looked for—all the values that Wonder Woman stands for exuding from someone in an honest way, and boy did they find it ... She shares every quality with Wonder Woman and that's no joke. It's one of those rare things. You need someone who can appear to be Wonder Woman on screen ... Every once in a while, there's superhero casting that transcends, because that person is so authentic to the character that it becomes identified with them, like Lynda Carter or Christopher Reeve.
The demon Neron engaged Diana in battle and managed to kill her.[112] The Olympian Gods granted Diana divinity and the role of the Goddess of Truth who started to reside in Olympus; her mother Hippolyta then assumed the role of Wonder Woman and wore her own different incarnation of the costume.[112] In Wonder Woman Vol. 2 #136, Diana was banished from Olympus due to interfering in earthly matters (as Diana was unable to simply watch over people's misery on Earth).[112] She immediately returned to her duties as Wonder Woman, but ran into conflicts with her mother over her true place and role as Hippolyta seemed accustomed to her life in America.[112] Their fight remained unsolved, as Hippolyta died during an intergalactic war.[112] Themyscira was destroyed during the war, but was restored and reformed as a collection of floating islands.[112] Circe later resurrected Hippolyta in Wonder Woman Vol 3 #8.[113]
At the end of Infinite Crisis, Wonder Woman temporarily retires from her costumed identity. Diana, once again using the alias Diana Prince, joins the Department of Metahuman Affairs. Donna Troy becomes the new Wonder Woman and is captured by Diana's enemies. Diana then goes on a mission to rescue her sister, battling Circe and Hercules. Diana defeats the villains, freeing Donna and takes up the role of Wonder Woman again. Circe places a spell on Diana, which renders Diana into a normal, powerless human being when in the role of Diana Prince; her powers come to her only when she is in the role of Wonder Woman.[116][117][118][119][120]
Wonder Woman is one of the students nominated to be Hero of the year, with everybody believing she will actually win the prize. When Big Barda accidently breaks Wonder Woman Shield, she (With Supergirl, Batgirl and Bumble Bee) travels to Themyscira to repair it. Her friends meets her mother, Queen Hippolyta, who is overly proud of her, having rooms devoted to her daughter trophies. After rescuing a captive Hyppolita, Wonder Woman goes back to Super Hero High to fight Eclipso. When Eclipso retrieves to the moon, Supergirl and Wonder Woman travels there and together managed to defeats the enemy. After Bumble Bee win the Hero of the Year award, Wonder Woman asks Hippolyta if she is not dissapointed by her, but her mother replies that she cannot be more proud. She is voiced by Grey DeLisle.
Wonder Woman made her debut in All-Star Comics at the end of 1941 and on the cover of a new comic book, Sensation Comics, at the beginning of 1942, drawn by an artist named Harry G. Peter. She wore a golden tiara, a red bustier, blue underpants and knee-high, red leather boots. She was a little slinky; she was very kinky. She'd left Paradise to fight fascism with feminism, in "America, the last citadel of democracy, and of equal rights for women!"
The relaunch was beset by scheduling problems as described by Grady Hendrix in his article, "Out for Justice" in The New York Sun. "By 2007 [Heinberg had] only delivered four issues ... Ms. Picoult's five issues hemorrhaged readers ... and Amazons Attack!, a miniseries commissioned to fill a hole in the book's publishing schedule caused by Mr. Heinberg's delays, was reviled by fans who decried it as an abomination."[47] Picoult's interpretation received acclaim from critics, who would have liked to have seen the novelist given more time to work. Min Jin Lee of The Times stated, "By furnishing a 21st-century emotional characterization for a 20th-century creation, Picoult reveals the novelist's dextrous hand."[48]
Superhuman Durability: The bones and muscles of Wonder Woman are much denser and harder than those of humans and Amazons, which makes her incredibly durable. Although she is not bulletproof, she can survive brute force trauma, falls from high altitudes, explosions and powerful bursts of energy, or come in contact with superhuman opponents such as Ares, Doomsday, Steppenwolf and Superman. While training with the other Amazons, Wonder Woman was not affected by the attacks of the latter, not even by the attacks of strong Amazons like Antiope and Artemis, as well as by resisting the blows of the improved Erich Ludendorff without any damage. Wonder Woman's durability allowed her to withstand Ares's blows, despite the considerably greater strength of the God of War, as well as a direct hit from a sword built by Ares, an explosion of lightning that blew it away and left her somewhat dazed, and even a tremendous explosion that left her dazed and almost deaf for a few minutes and still was able to get up to fight again against her half brother. After reaching her full potential as a demigoddess, the Wonder Woman became considerably more durable, enough to withstand the huge blows of the Doomsday monster, with a blow sending her flying several meters and leaving her completely unharmed. It was also able to withstand the lightning, thermal vision and waves of electrical discharges of Doomsday, wrapped by the thick thermal beam without suffering any damage. In the same way, Wonder Woman came out completely unscathed and without a scratch from her fierce battles with Steppenwolf and Superman, even though Steppenwolf hit her constantly with her Electro Ax and Superman hit her with enough force to leave her dazed. While Wonder Woman may be affected by the considerable force of the powerful impacts, they only make her stumble and hit her briefly, leaving her unharmed, with Wonder Woman smiling even after receiving powerful blow from Doomsday that sent her flying, and quickly rose up to face the monster again with a renewed ferocity.
If you're looking for a certified God of War on a personal vendetta against a pantheon of gods, Wonder Woman has you covered. The current version of Diana hacking and slashing her way through the DC Universe, anyway. After unintentionally bringing a new collection of "Dark Gods" into the comic book universe, it falls to the daughter of Zeus to save Earth from their malice.
A fight broke out among the heroes for possession of the box and was only ended when John Constantine took the box, being the only one capable of doing so without being corrupted. Zatanna and Constantine took the box to the temple of Hephaestus, where the three Justice Leagues had converged again.[69] After yet another battle between heroes, the box went dormant and the Justice Leagues discovered a Kryptonite sliver in Superman's nervous system, placed there by the Atomica, a traitor working for the Outsider, leader of the Secret Society. Then, the Outsider used the box to open a path across universes, allowing the Crime Syndicate to enter the Justice Leagues' world.[70]

So what makes us different from the thousands of other digital marketing providers serving our industry?
We provide all our services through an anonymous vendor relationship. This means, that unless directly specified by the client, all the work we provide remains anonymous. We take credit for nothing, allowing our clients to take credit for everything.
When it comes to the corporate environment, we believe genuine service is a dying art. As a result, we've created the anonymous vendor-relationship option for our clients in an effort to bring some truth to the phrase "your success is our success."
In a world where everybody and their brother want you to believe they have your back, Vertū Marketing actually does, making us the go-to agency for many of the largest brands in the United States and Europe.
The anonymous vendor-relationship option allows the Vertū Marketing team to focus solely on the success of our clients in the corporate environment; it also allows us to provide a wider range of services and to serve a wider range of clientele.
We are the "man behind the curtain" for large companies in a wide variety of industries.

Yes, that's right, we are the marketing firm to marketing firms. We are a cog that keeps the corporate-branding machine running, and we do it all without the publicized glory most other corporate marketing agencies require.
Why? Because most people in our industry do a lot of fast talking, they make a lot of promises and, like magicians, they draw focus to the "prestige." All the while, drawing your eye away from what really matters and the things that get actual results.
We are Vertū for a reason, our primary focus is optimal service and tangible results. We don't need to see our name in lights to do exemplary work.
No, not all our clients remain anonymous. It is not a mandatory component of the vendor relationship with our team. However, we find that providing the privacy option to our clients allows us to pursue projects that would otherwise remain unavailable to us and it allows us to earn a level of trust with our clients that very few corporate marketing agencies have the opportunity to earn.
Each of the services offered by Vertū Marketing, from copywriting and article marketing to graphic design and video promos, is available to our corporate marketing clients through a vendor relationship, established by a contract.

The BoF Podcast: Inside the Retail Hurricane with Doug Stephens
Listen to Doug Stephens aka the Retail Prophet discuss the death of wholesale, the shift to direct-to-consumer, embracing uncertainty and how to confront Amazon.
LONDON, United Kingdom — "It's like standing in the middle of a hurricane and trying to grab things that fly by you, and hoping you've grabbed the right thing that can save your life," says Doug Stephens. "That's the way retailers feel."
The renowned retail industry futurist, advisor and author talks to Imran Amed about how brands can make sense of all the change that's happening in the fast-evolving retail landscape. One of the biggest challenges is a shift in distribution, as insiders are saying the days of wholesale are numbered. "They're not delivering the kind of experience that brands would like to have associated with their products," says Stephens. "[Brands are] in the cold, hard light of 2018 evaluating the relative equity that they get from distribution of their products through merchants." And during that reallocation from wholesale to direct-to-consumer, Stephens advises to first define experience and build perfection on a small scale.
But customer acquisition for direct-to-consumer brands is more difficult than ever. "Product on its own is not enough. There is just too much out there and there's something new every day." Stephens' secrets to the perfect retail experience? "Surprise, uniqueness, personalisation, engagement and repeatability," he says, although noting they are not features he has been able to find across many luxury and fast-fashion retailers.
Another challenger has been Amazon. "They should be haunting everyone's dreams," Stephen says, because at its core Amazon is a data innovation technology company, rather than a retailer, making it flexible in any product category. While luxury has been hard to crack for the company, large fashion houses will inevitably end up on the site, since the opportunity will be too large to pass up. When that happens, "my encouragement would be [to] do it with your eyes wide open and pack a parachute, because Amazon does not have your best interest at heart," he continues.
His advice to chief executives of retail and apparel companies is that "innovation, by definition is uncertainty, if you're doing things that have never been done before ...you have to be willing to embrace that uncertainty."

Pašman () falu és község Horvátországban Zára megyében. Közigazgatásilag Banj, Dobropoljana, Kraj, Mrljane, Neviđane és Ždrelac települések tartoznak hozzá.

Fekvése
Zárától légvonalban 22 km-re délkeletre, az azonos nevű sziget délkeleti felén, az északkeleti parton Babac szigetével szemben fekszik. Zárától és Biogradtól a Pašmani-csatorna választja el. Nagyszerű látvány nyílik innen a környező kis lakatlan szigetekre, melyek az őket felfedezni vágyó utazók kedvelt célpontjai. A településnek két homokos strandja és néhány kis kikötője van. A mediterrán éghajlat kedvez a gazdag flóra és fauna kialakulásának, a sokféle illatos és gyógyhatású növénynek, míg a Pašmani-csatornában számos kagyló- és halfaj él. A hat óránként változó irányú tengeri áramlatok az Adria egyik legtisztább vizű részévé teszik ezt a vidéket.

Története
A régészeti leletek tanúsága szerint Pašman szigete már a történelem előtti időben is lakott volt. Ezt igazolják az illírek által épített várak, sírhalmok és temetők maradványai, valamint a Pašman, Neviđane és Banj települések közelében fekvő barlangokban talált leletek. A sziget illír nevét a délkeleti végében fekvő Tkon falu neve őrizte meg, mely a sziget rómaiak előtti Katan, Katun elnevezéséből származik. Első ismert lakói az illírek egyik törzse a liburnok voltak. Az ókorban még a szomszédos Ugljan szigetével összefüggő Pašman-szigetet már idősebb Plinius római író említi 79-ben "Lissa" néven. A sziget és egyben a település mai elnevezése szintén római eredetű és akkori birtokosának egy bizonyos Posturnusnak a nevéből alakult ki. Ebből a személynévből lett aztán később a birtok neve "Postumianum" vagy "Postumiana", majd ebből "Postumiana insula", azaz Pašman-sziget. A római korból épületmaradványok és kikötői berendezések maradványai találhatók Banj és Dobropoljana területén. A vízalatti régészeti leletek is megerősítik, hogy itt az ókorban fejlett hajózás volt. Ez leginkább a hajózási útvonalak mentén fekvő települések népességében látszik, melyek két legjelentősebbike Jadara és Enona volt, de rajtuk kívül a parti falvak sorának volt a hajók fogadására alkalmas kikötője.

A kora középkorban a szigetre érkező horvátok betelepülése valószínűleg békésen ment végbe, mivel az újonnan érkezők nemcsak magukba olvasztották az itt talált latin nyelvű lakosokat, hanem sok vívmányuk mellett a települések nevét (Pašman, Tkon és Banj) is átvették. A később keletkezett dokumentumok, adománylevelek, szerződések és végrendeletek nyilvánvalóvá teszik, hogy a szigeten Zára városának, püspökségének és polgárainak számos birtoka volt. Egy 806. augusztus 7-i dátummal keltezett oklevélből kiderül, hogy Donát zárai püspök plébániatemplomot szentelt fel Pašmanon. A 10. században Pašman a Bizánci Birodalom Dalmácia provinciájához tartozott, amelynek akkor Zára volt a székhelye. Ezt Bíborbanszületett Konstantin császár is megerősíti, amikor "De administrando imperio" című műve Dalmácia provinciáról szóló részének végén egészen Benvenutoig számba veszi az Adriai-tenger szigeteit, melyek között mint lakatlan szigetet megemlíti Pašmant is. Pašmant mint települést IV. Krešimir horvát király idejében 1076-ban említik először a közeli Tkonnal ("in "Kutono") együtt "in Pustimano" alakban a biogradi püspökséghez tartozó Szent János kolostor birtokai között. Miután 1102-ben Horvátország perszonálunióként a Magyar Királyság része lett a horvát tengeri haderő legyengült, mivel a magyar királyok nem tudtak, vagy nem akartak pénzt fordítani a fenntartására és ezt Velence egyből kihasználta. Ordelafo Faledro dózse már Kálmán király idejében 1115-ben megindította flottáját Zára felé. Kálmán az Álmos herceggel kitört fegyveres viszály miatt nem tudott erőt fordítani a tengermellék védelmére, mivel Zára és Biograd várain kívül nem volt a térségben királyi katonaság. A dózse a vár kivételével meg is szállta Zárát és Biogradot is, majd őrséget hagyva visszatért Velencébe. Ezen hadjárat alkalmával került velencei kézre Pašman szigete is. 1124-ben Kálmán fia II. István még visszafoglalta Biogradot, Šibeniket, Trogirt és Splitet, de Domenico Michieli dózse már a következő évben újra uralma alá vonta ezeket a területeket. Ennek a hadjáratnak a során a velenceiek barbár módon rombolták le a korábbi horvát királyi fővárost Biogradot, amely rombolást a város ezután már többé nem tudta kiheverni. Ekkor rombolták le a biogradi Szent János kolostort is. A biogradi bencések ezt követően székhelyüket a Pašman-szigetre, a mai Tkontól két kilométerre északnyugatra fekvő, mintegy 90 méter magas Ćokovac nevű magaslatra tették át, ahol hamarosan felépítették a Szent Kozma és Damján vértanúk tiszteletére szentelt templomukat. Ćokovac egyúttal a Pašmani-csatorna feletti stratégiai jelentőségű pont is volt, ezért kolostorának falait különösen megerősítették és fontos partmenti erődként, illetve őrhelyként is szolgált. A velencei uralom ellenére a bencések megőrizték horvát identitásukat. 1202-ben amikor a velenceiek és a keresztesek elfoglalták Zára várát számos zárai menekültet fogadtak be falaik közé.

A 14. században amikor Nagy Lajos király nagy erőket fordított Dalmáciának a velenceiektől történő visszaszerzésére jelentős szerepet játszott Lajos támogatásában a harcias Zárával szemben. Ezt megbosszulva 1345-ben a velenceiek elfoglalták és a földig rombolták a kolostort templomával együtt. 1358-ban azonban Velence vereséget szenvedett és a zárai békében Lajos király újra visszaszerezte a teljes tengermelléket a Kvarnertől egészen a déli Dračéig. A király segítségével a bencések is visszakapták tkoni birtokukat, melyet VI. Ince pápa is megerősített. Nemsokára mindent újjáépítettek amit Velence lerombolt. A magyar uralom azonban csak ötven évig tartott, mert 1409-ben a magyar trónkövetelő Nápolyi László 100 000 dukátért eladta az akkor birtokában volt Zárát, Novigradot, Vránát és Pagot Velencének és velük együtt Pašman is évszázadokra velencei uralom alá került. A sziget a zárai érsekség, zárai kolostorok és nemesek birtoka lett. A 16. században felerősödtek a tengermelléket érő török támadások, melyek elől sokat itt kerestek menedéket. 1538-ban elesett Vrána, ezzel a török veszély már közvetlen közelségbe került. 1570-ben a török felégette Tkon termésének egy részét és Pašman faluból is többeket hurcoltak rabságba. A kandiai háború során is többször támadták török hadak és ezekhez kapcsolódóan többször pusztította pestis is. A 18. század végén Napóleon megszüntette a Velencei Köztársaságot. 1797 és 1805 között Habsburg uralom alá került, majd az egész Dalmáciával együtt a Francia Császárság része lett. 1815-ben a bécsi kongresszus újra Ausztriának adta, amely a Dalmát Királyság részeként Zárából igazgatta 1918-ig. A településnek 1857-ben 667, 1910-ben 665 lakosa volt. Az első világháborút követően előbb a Szerb-Horvát-Szlovén Királyság, majd Jugoszlávia része lett. Az 1970-es évektől a több munkalehetőség miatt több fiatal költözött a nagyobb városokba és vándorolt ki az Egyesült Államokban és Ausztráliában is. A falunak 2011-ben 392 lakosa volt, akik hagyományosan mezőgazdasággal, halászattal foglalkoznak. Ezek mellett egyre inkább fejlődik a turizmus is.

Lakosság

Nevezetességei
A Kisboldogasszony tiszteletére szentelt plébániatemplomát már a kora középkorban említik. A 19. században élt zárai történész Carlo Bianchi szerint már 429-ben említik Fosco zárai polgár végrendeletében, annak birtokai között. A hagyomány szerint az első templom a mai templom szentélye helyén állt és 806. augusztus 7-én szentelte fel Donát zárai püspök. A templomot később bővítették és átépítették. A mai templomot 1885-ben építették és ez év augusztus 9-én szentelte fel Petar Dujam Maupas zárai érsek a Kisboldogasszony tiszteletére. Erről feliratos kőtábla emlékezik meg a keresztelőmedence mellett. A templomnak öt oltára van. A főoltár képén a fiatal Szűz Mária látható az apostolok, valamint Szent Cirill és Szent Metód társaságában. A templom hátsó részén még két oltár látható, Mate Celestin Medović egyházi festőművész alkotásai. Az egyik Szent Péter és Pál apostolokat, a másik Keresztelő Szent Jánost és Szent Simont ábrázolja a gyermek Jézussal (Jézus bemutatása a templomban), mindkettő vászonra festett olajkép. Dubrovnikban készültek 1893-94-ben. A templom bal oldalá található oltár Jézus Szíve az ezt ábrázoló gipsz szoborral, míg a jobb oldalon a Szeplőtelen fogantatás látható Szűz Mária gipsz szobrával. A templom belső festése a Szentírás motívumait ábrázolja, Mladen Plečak és Mate Matulić festők alkotása 1930-ból. Berendezésének tárgyai között néhány ezüstözött gyertyatartó és körmeneti kereszt található.
Otus nevű településrészén található a Szent Antal templom néhány világi épület romjaival. Otus elsősorban régi, a 14. és 15. század fordulóján, egy Venturin nevű gazdag zárai polgár által épített nyári kastélyáról nevezetes. Venturin a sziget nagy szerelmese volt és már korábban is rendelkezett itt földbirtokkal. 1399 nyara előtt nagyobb területet vásárolt itt és egy nagy méretű nyári rezidencia építésébe kezdett. Az építés a 15. század első éveiben fejeződött be a Szent Antal templom felépítésével, ahova a szent ünnepén ma is minden évben elzarándokolnak a sziget lakói. Az épületegyüttesből mára csak a templom maradt fenn, a többi épületnek csak a romjai láthatók. A nyári kastély a "Kaštelin" épülete régen a kalóztámadások elleni menedékül is szolgált. A másik romos épület az ún. "Arsenal" egykori funkciója már nem ismert.
Szent Rókus tiszteletére szentelt temploma Mali Pašmanon áll. 1631-ben a pestis pusztítása után épült fogadalomból. A templom egyhajós, hosszúkás épület, keleti oldalán félköríves apszissal. Faragott kövekből épült, fából készült tetővel, cserép borítással. Az apszis félkupolával van fedve mely, kőlapokkal van burkolva. A templomot fogadalmi kápolnának építették 1631-ben, a falut sújtó pestisjárvány nyomán. A későbbi átépítésekkel megemelték, de alaprajza a Zára környékén szétszórtan álló kis középkori templomokkal rokon.
A falu közepén a plébánia közelében áll a Szent Márk templom. Építési ideje nem ismert, 1997-ben újították fel.
A Pašmantól északra fekvő Ričul-szigetecske teljes területét a vaskorban erődített település borította. A település sáncai ma a part mentén helyezkednek el, az emelkedő tengerszint miatt, amely ma 2–3 m-rel magasabb, mint a vaskorban. Abban az időben a szigetet egy töltés kötötte össze a szárazfölddel, amelynek maradványai most a tenger alatt vannak, 1,5–3 m mélységben. A sziget északkeleti oldalán vaskori urnát találtak. Ez alapján feltételezik, hogy a sziget azon oldalán lehet a vaskori település nekropolisza. A sziget déli oldalán található egy kis barlang, amelynek aljzatán vaskori maradványok találhatók.

With new purpose-built premises and a streamlined organization, maritime academy Sjónám offers a wide range of training programs and courses for international seafarers — expecting a growing number of foreign students.
The international aspect is vitally important to Faroese seafarers, who have for decades been prominent among the crews and bridge teams of vessels under a variety of flags operating around the world. Based in the northern Faroese port of Klaksvík, maritime academy Sjónám has been highly successful attracting students for its courses from all parts of the Faroe Islands and beyond. According to the academy's manager, Ragnar Ludvig, who took over his post in August 2014, a growing number of aspiring and professional seafarers are expected to undergo training at Sjónám.
Among the wealth of courses offered by Sjónám for seafarers based in the Faroe Islands or elsewhere are a skipper training program complying with STCW II/1 Officer of the Watch standards and watchkeeper's training in accordance with the STCW II-4 Rating Forming Part of a Navigational Watch standard.
"Feedback from our students as they graduate is overwhelmingly positive and many of them go on to work overseas on international merchant vessels," Mr. Ludvig said, adding that today Sjónám is a registered educational institution under the Faroe Islands Ministry of Culture, and its current structure has been in place since 2012 as a provider of STCW-compliant training and courses.
The STCW-compliant training is vital for anyone wanting to work overseas as the IMO convention standards are in place worldwide and are a key requirement for crews on merchant vessels in particular as well as many fishing vessels. In addition to the STCW standard, Sjónám was previously a subcontractor running courses on behalf of Maersk Training, but equivalent courses are now offered independently.
Courses currently available from Sjónám include the Basic Offshore Safety Training course to Danish, Norwegian, UK and Dutch standards that includes Helicopter Underwater Escape Training (HUET), as well as STCW VI/1 Basic Safety Training, STCW VI/2 Proficiency in Fast Rescue Boats, STCW VI/2 Proficiency in Survival Craft Other Than Fast Rescue Boats and STCW VI/4 Medical Care on Board Ships, which includes Medical First Aid.
Sjónám also represents the Faroe Islands at the International Association for Safety and Survival Training (IASST).
"We have been ISO 9001 certified since 2008 and Achilles JQS qualified since 2013," Mr. Ludvig noted.
Originally established in 1947 as a college of navigation to train ship's officers for the fishing and commercial fleets, Sjónám has deep roots in the Faroese maritime training environment. Over the years the academy has gone through a number of incarnations as its role has evolved to take in wider aspects of maritime training for other seagoing roles, having most recently added courses in safety, rescue and communications at sea.
Sjónám is the result of a merger of the former Klaksvík Seamen's School (Klaksvíkar Sjómansskúli)—a local navigation academy opened in 1947—and safety training organization Trygdarmiðstøðin, also based in Klaksvík. Training activities widened in 1960 to include radio telephony, and for many years the school also trained ship's cooks, with a unique course that was taught regularly from 1972 until brought to an end in 2011 and replaced by a more general one-year course of study in catering.
After operating initially as a private institution founded by Fisher Heinesen, and remaining that way until it became publicly-run in 1975, the maritime academy was located in the basement of Heinesen's house before it moved to its own premises in 1971 and finally, in 2012, to its new purpose-built set of premises.
Basic training for fishing crews had started in 1991 with a five-month practical and theory course supported with time at sea for candidates to gain experience. Safety training began the same year at Klaksvíkar Sjómansskúli, however this role was transferred to Trygdarmiðstøðin when that was established as an independent safety training provider. In 2012 the activities of both Trygdarmiðstøðin and Klaksvíkar Sjómansskúli were combined under the name of Sjónám as a single entity, with quayside premises on Klaksvík's Vestara Bryggja.
