Bob Dylan & Sam Cooke
Sam Cooke escribió A Change is Gonna Come, un himno del movimiento por los derechos civiles, inspirado al escuchar el Blowing in The Wind de Dylan. El 28 de marzo de 2004, Bob Dylan cerró el círculo, tocando la canción de Sam Cooke en el 70 aniversario del Apollo Theater de Harlem.
There were times when I thought I couldn't last for long
Now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Yes it will

Otro mash-up de Mark Vidler. Esta vez se atreve con Dylan:
The 2 tracks used were 'Like A Rolling Stone' and 'The Times They Are A Changin'.
My intention was to give Dylan some psychedelics fused with an electro throb or suchlike, so I whipped out the Fender Tele and threw random shapes all over it, backwards bits etc, aiming for a 'revolver never knows' feel…

Tangled up in blue según Jerry García
The Jerry Garcia Band perform Bob Dylan's epic "Tangled Up in Blue" at the Shoreline Ampitheatre in Mt. View, CA on September 1, 1990.
Early one mornin' the sun was shinin',
I was layin' in bed
Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all
If her hair was still red.
Her folks they said our lives together
Sure was gonna be rough
They never did like Mama's homemade dress
Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough.
And I was standin' on the side of the road
Rain fallin' on my shoes
Heading out for the East Coast
Lord knows I've paid some dues gettin' through,
Tangled up in blue.
She was married when we first met
Soon to be divorced
I helped her out of a jam, I guess,
But I used a little too much force.
We drove that car as far as we could
Abandoned it out West
Split up on a dark sad night
Both agreeing it was best.
She turned around to look at me
As I was walkin' away
I heard her say over my shoulder,
"We'll meet again someday on the avenue,"
I had a job in the great north woods
Working as a cook for a spell
But I never did like it all that much
And one day the ax just fell.
So I drifted down to New Orleans
Where I happened to be employed
Workin' for a while on a fishin' boat
Right outside of Delacroix.
But all the while I was alone
The past was close behind,
I seen a lot of women
But she never escaped my mind, and I just grew
She was workin' in a topless place
And I stopped in for a beer,
I just kept lookin' at the side of her face
In the spotlight so clear.
And later on as the crowd thinned out
I's just about to do the same,
She was standing there in back of my chair
Said to me, "Don't I know your name?"
I muttered somethin' underneath my breath,
She studied the lines on my face.
I must admit I felt a little uneasy
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe,
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
"I thought you'd never say hello," she said
"You look like the silent type."
Then she opened up a book of poems
And handed it to me
Written by an Italian poet
From the thirteenth century.
And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin' coal
Pourin' off of every page
Like it was written in my soul from me to you,
I lived with them on Montague Street
In a basement down the stairs,
There was music in the cafes at night
And revolution in the air.
Then he started into dealing with slaves
And something inside of him died.
She had to sell everything she owned
And froze up inside.
And when finally the bottom fell out
I became withdrawn,
The only thing I knew how to do
Was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew,
So now I'm goin' back again,
I got to get to her somehow.
All the people we used to know
They're an illusion to me now.
Some are mathematicians
Some are carpenter's wives.
Don't know how it all got started,
I don't know what they're doin' with their lives.
But me, I'm still on the road
Headin' for another joint
We always did feel the same,
We just saw it from a different point of view,

A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall
Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.
Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it,
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin',
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin',
I saw a white ladder all covered with water,
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin',
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world,
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin',
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin',
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin',
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter,
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley,
Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony,
I met a white man who walked a black dog,
I met a young woman whose body was burning,
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow,
I met one man who was wounded in love,
I met another man who was wounded with hatred,
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.
Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin',
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty,
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison,
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten,
Where black is the color, where none is the number,
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it,
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',
But I'll know my song well before I start singin',

'Dolittle' Reviews
18 jan by 20 — Dolittle, Reviews
Dolittle was released on Friday and unfortunately is getting panned by critics, currently rotten at 18% on Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer (79% at the audience score). There are some lovely words for Michael's performance as Dr. Blair Müdfly, which you can read below:
IndieWire (Rating: C-)
Our reluctant hero [Dolittle] will have to voyage to both of the other locations that weren't cut out during reshoots, and he'll have to get there before the chinless doctor Müdfly (a delicious Michael Sheen, making a glorious meal out of table scraps) is able to find the magic whatsit for himself.
(…) the only wholly successful element of Dolittle is its villain. Michael Sheen plays Dr. Blair Müdfly, personal doctor to the queen of England and rival to the legendary Dolittle. Where Downey is fumbling with a clumsy Welsh accent and mawkish melancholy, Sheen is on fire, incensed by Müdfly's jealousy and embracing this property's camp past. With a severe goatee, bulging eyes, and a voice ever on the verge of breaking into a squeal of rage, Sheen gifts this fumbling film a surge of energy and hilarious pettiness. Perhaps the joke that proved the most silly yet satisfying is when Dolittle mutters that the man is a "chinless wonder," then the cut leaps across leagues of open ocean to Müdfly's warship where he's looking through a spyglass and yelps, "I think he said something about my chin!" Sheen is the only one who seems to truly embrace what over-the-top fun this could have been. Bless him.
idobi Network
Then there's Michael Sheen, who is known to sprinkle his patented Sheen® brand Luster Dust all over everything he does. His rival to Dolittle is the brilliantly bumbling villain: Dr. Blair Müdfly (pronounced Moudfly because of "the umlaut from the German"). Y'all, that umlaut almost did me in. I could not stop laughing. We must insure Michael Sheen's well being immediately (and I do mean "insure" like with policies in the billions).
As the scheming Blair Müdfly, Michael Sheen is the one element of Dolittle that actually connects, in part because his performance is tuned into the ridiculousness of everything around him. Müdfly is one of the conspirators seeking to remove the Queen from power, and Sheen plays him like a live-action Snidely Whiplash
HeraldNet.com
Some of the laughs come from the film's villain, the nefarious Dr. Mudfly (Michael Sheen plays the role with a satanic beard and campy energy). Sheen can get a lot out of a line like "I shall continue to leech!" when describing his medical treatment for the queen.
The only human that feels close to fully realized is the villain, Dr. Blair Müdfly (Michael Sheen, having the time of his life), a former classmate of Dr. Dolittle. He is over-the-top evil but still relatable as a jealous Salieri, forever in the shadow of Dolittle's Mozart.
The Globe and Mail (Rating: 2/4 stars)
On the way, they encounter Lily's father, a pirate king played by the stalwart Antonio Banderas, and the evil Dr. Mudfly (a wonderfully committed Michael Sheen), a black-clad, goateed gadfly with selfish motivations to stop Dolittle and his band of zoological misfits.
From the entire cast and crew of Dolittle, just Michael Sheen, Jason Mantzoukas and Antonio Banderas can lay claim to enhancing it with their work. Sheen's hammy villain and Mantzoukas's deranged dragonfly manage to create the only laugh-out-loud moments
AV Club (Rating: C-)
Michael Sheen's over-the-top performance as Dolittle's sworn rival, the sputtering incarnation of medical mediocrity Dr. Blair Müdfly [is lightly amusing]. The key there is that Sheen is not taking his role even remotely seriously, and is playing for the amusement of the children in the audience rather than operating by a misguided faith in the power of one-liners or a myopic conception of his movie-star brilliance. Would that everyone else involved in this production had the same clarity.
812filmReviews (Rating: 2/4)
Dolittle only survives due to its villains. For one, Michael Sheen plays a wonderfully cartoonish foe in Dr. Blair Müdfly. Often self-conscious of his standing in relation to Dr. Dolittle, his pettiness adds a richness to a film that rarely discovers its center.
The Mary Sue (Rating: 3/5)
But the best way to describe this movie is madness. With a Michael Sheen performance to rival his Breaking Dawn laugh and Antonio Banderas being a hot king, the movie is very much a family adventure and one that should be approached with an open mind and heart.
On the first note: there are a few elements here and there that got a laugh out of the room, particularly moments from Michael Sheen and Kumail Nanjiani, who are the brightest spots in Dolittle. Sheen and Nanjiani feel like they know what kind of movie they're in and they're excited to be part of it.
Rendy Reviews (Rating: 1/5 | 26%)
If there was one person who managed to put a smile on my face throughout this damn mess was Michael Sheen. He portrays the main antagonist, Mudfly, Dolittle's enemy who was always envious of his prosperity. He takes nothing but joy out of witnessing his downfall and hates him to an obsessive degree. Sheen plays this in such a joyous, upbeat, over the top manner that had me chuckling more than I thought I would. He's the only human actor who is actually given direction and makes the most out of his presence.

Enshrining Legends
by admin November 27, 2018 Comments
The Mughals were originally Central Asians who migrated to northern India where they defeated the Delhi Sultanate in 1526. Once settled in India, they adopted Islam and Persian culture. The kingdom grew into a prosperous and powerful empire when Akbar the Great ascended the throne. India was an open society with inter-marriages occurring between the Rajput Indians, Mughals and Persians. The early Mughal emperors were so lenient that Indian brides were allowed to practise their Hindu rites on palace grounds.
Emperor Akbar or Akbar the Great (1542-1605) was indisputably the greatest Mughal ruler. He was the third Mughal emperor and succeeded his father when he was just a teenager. To preserve peace and order in a religiously and culturally diverse empire, Akbar adopted open and inclusive policies that won him the support of his non-Muslim subjects. With great charisma and a cult status, Akbar was able to unite diverse cultures and kingdoms throughout India by eschewing rigid Islamic laws. Most of the Hindu kingdoms he controlled were won through marriage and diplomacy.
As Muslims, the Mughals built many splendid mosques and fortresses. The Chinese were fond of building extravagant tombs for their emperors too, but their locations were often kept secret to guard against looters, vandals or other folks with axes to grind. Tombs of some of the Mughal emperors can also be quite extravagant (and arguably more tasteful), but not only were they not meant to be hidden from view, they actually advertise their presence.
Tomb of Akbar the Great
Tomb of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal
Interestingly, Islam prohibits the construction of grand mausoleums, but the Mughal emperors kept breaking this rule, recognising the fact that the symbolic presence of a legendary great leader bestows credence upon his lesser successors. Akbar's biographer Abul Fazil postulated that such monuments provide reassurance for the insecure, please the obedient and intimidate the rebels. All this may have happened 500 years ago, but many of the concepts, tactics and strategies have remained unchanged.
Sadly but inevitably, the Mughal empire began its gradual decline after the death of Akbar the Great in 1605. Akbar's grandson Shah Jahan had his throne usurped, virtually imprisoned in Agra while his son Aurangzeb consolidated power in Delhi. Rebellions from lesser kingdoms, the rise of "orthodox" Islam and sibling rivalry within the imperial court did what opium and alcohol (Mughals drank and smoked) couldn't do – they brought the kingdom to its knees with Delhi being repeatedly occupied and reoccupied by rebel forces. Some "emperors" had held on to the throne for only a matter of months. After two centuries of glory, the Mughal empire was torn to shreds. The last Mughal "emperor" was Bahadur Shah Zafar (1775-1862). The "empire" had been reduced to a mere precinct around Delhi since some 3 generations before him.

Well, the latest KPMG and REC, UK Report on Jobs for the North of England is here for March and we've seen the first increase in permanent staff appointments of 2019 (after a softer than historical average start to the year). This of course is encouraging news for the UK economy and a clear sign that businesses are putting their feelers out in the market and making key appointments. It would also appear that Northern employers are the only English region to see an increase in permanent placements at all this month. That's either forward thinking or an urgent requirement for business. Either way, what does this continually rising demand for new staff mean for those businesses still hesitating or reluctant to get involved in recruiting at this moment in time?
Businesses need to be firing on all cylinders if they're going to effectively respond to the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
As has been the case in each month since February 2013, permanent staff availability in the North of England deteriorated in March. Moreover, the rate of decline was sharp and slightly faster than in February. The number of permanent staff vacancies grew at the quickest pace for four months in the North too and was faster than the UK average.
This continued contraction of the region's labour market could threaten business growth plans, so management teams must consider how best to attract talent in a competitive skills market where permanent staff availability continues to decline.
There is an increase in those taking on Executive personnel on short term contracts and we are already seeing an increase in this at Board and Senior Management level.
Brexit uncertainty has for many, put the brakes on recruitment. With business investment rates poor and little certainty about the path ahead, today's data shows that the time for political game-playing needs to be over. As a Nation we are 'keeping calm and carrying on' but we still have hires that have to be made and we still need to build our empires and get ahead of the curve where we can. Otherwise, in the end both employers and the best talent will lose out in these unchartered waters and nobody rarely wants to just tread water.
Sharon Seville is a Fellow of the Institute of Recruitment Professionals, a highly experienced Senior Appointments Recruiter and a regular contributor to the KPMG/REC UK Jobs outlook report.

Our school softball team participated in the Kanto regional championship on 6th and 7th of June at Odawara city in Kanagawa prefecture representing high schools in Tokyo. Kanto regional championship is the tournament of 16 teams representing Tokyo metropolis and 7 prefectures. To compete this Kanto regional championship, teams must win each regional and prefectural tournament. My school team was defeated at the semi-final, but won all second chance matches, qualifying participation of the Kanto championship.
Kanto championship was held just after the midterm exam. We practiced everyday even during the exam. After taking each day's exam, we practiced and then went home to study for the next day's exam. This became one cycle during the exam period. It was really tough schedule. The Kanto regional championship was from 6th of June. Our team took Odakyu Romancecar (express train) to Odawara on 5th of June, Friday, for the next day's match. We stayed in a hotel with a luxury hot spring. We were so pleased to take a bath, saying it was like a reward for our hard work.
We played not becoming too nervous during the match. It was a good experience to enjoy the atmosphere of the high level competition and to learn various play styles from other teams. This kind of match is one of my goals and becomes a motivation to overcome my hard daily practice. Although we were disappointed to lose the first match, this would become a good chance to improve our softball skills and increase our mental strength. We would like to become the Kanto region champion next time, making good use of this experience.

I know I've been off the grid lately, but truthfully there hasn't been much to talk about. I've been really trying to undo a lot of the toxic behaviours I've picked up over the last five years and really be my healthiest self. I've cut down on junk food, I've been walking more, I'm back at the gym, and working out at home more. I'm excited to start running again. I've been doing less social media and just sort of living life. This month I've been doing my 31 days of awesome women, but otherwise I've kind of slowed down. One thing I've really tried to shake is that darkness that used to hover over me at work. I hit a slump and it was really getting to me. At my old job, I'd be having panic attacks because I knew there would be a public shaming on a conference call. This wouldn't happen at my new job, because my boss is a supportive and empowering leader. But my friends advocated for me and I felt like I was making them look bad. But, unlike before, I can talk about it and I feel like people believe in me. But the most important thing was that I needed to break all of the really bad habits I picked up so that only good ones remain. I've practiced French for 110 days now. I'm gonna make working out first thing in the morning a priority. All the things I neglected, I'm going to try and do, as long as it doesn't cost money, because I'm broke y'all.
I love my job, but I took a pay cut to come here. It's been worth it because I'm not as depressed anymore. But during the pandemic, when I was earning around 40% of my wages (over 65% of my wages were commission, and I wasn't really earning any), I did what I had to do to protect my family and borrowed a lot of high cost installment loans. My options were limited, I wasn't receiving any support from the dad because he was laid off too, so I did what I had to do. But now, I'm feeling the pinch of keeping everything current. I want to start saving for retirement. I want to start looking at options to put my mom in long term care. I just want to be able to breathe a bit more. But it's embarrassing. No one wants to admit they're in debt and that it's tough. So I swallowed my pride, and made an appointment with a bank that's known for working with clients to hopefully get my debt under control. It'll be great and nothing could possibly go wrong!
How wrong I was!
The advisor made a huge mistake when it came to my income, and told me my debt to income ratio was significantly off. When I expressed frustration, because nothing made sense, she asked me "have you considered just making more money?"
HOLY SHIT WHY DIDN'T I JUST THINK OF THAT?! JUST MAKE MORE MONEY!
I was SHOCKED. I actually told the rep she was mean and hung up on her. I was so frustrated because it took everything I had in me just to have the conversation, and I was dismissed with "just make more money!" I was up all night feeling very bleak and hopeless. I was shocked that it was so easy to say, as if the problem was that I was just lazy and hadn't been left scrambling in a pandemic. It was literally the reason I didn't even make an appointment! It's probably the reason a lot of people don't make appointments or have conversations to improve their financial futures. It also reminded me of when Kim Kardashian told women to just "get up off of their fucking ass and work," and how no one wants to work these days, as if achieving your dream is just indicative of one's work ethic, and not, in Kim's case, generational wealth. Much like it was easy for the financial advisor to just suggest making more money, it's easy for someone like Kim Kardashian to say "just work harder." The financial advisor isn't a single mom working full time and taking every second of OT she can to make ends meet and raise three kids on her own. Kim Kardashian has a maid and nanny for every kid. Her version of "single working mom" isn't the same as mine.
Fortunately, the branch manager and I had a good chat, and we found some errors on my application, one of which was my salary. So guess what? I already made more money! But it's easy to get mad when someone who's out of touch says something that proves they're out of touch. Work is always a trigger point and finding that work life balance can be tough, especially for working moms. The workforce is designed for women to feel inadequate. Work too much, you're a bad mom. Work too little, you're lazy. Add in the guilt and cost of childcare, school fees, carpooling, lessons, balancing to attend recitals, and the guilt when you can't do it all, it's a bitter pill to swallow to hear "have you considered making more money?" Or "get up off your ass and work," by people who have no idea how hard you're working just to get by. But sometimes you just have to consider the source. I know that no one gets to go out and make more money. It's not that easy, not even for a Kardashian. I know I wasn't born on third base and pretending I hit a triple. Most of us didn't. Let the out of touch people say dumb shit. The rest of us working moms will just keep moving forward.
I don't know how this will all work out. Maybe I'll reduce my debt and have more financial freedom. Maybe it won't work out and I'll have to chip away for a few more months. Either way, at least I'm getting some plans together. Maybe I can't just make more money, but I can keep paying down my debt and not let it impact my self esteem anymore, so I can focus on my family, fitness, and happiness.

Plateaus bring on so much self-doubt that it's tempting to just give up.
WAIT! you MUST read this before throwing in the towel!
You have a goal weight, and that's awesome. But solely focusing on that can lead you to forget to forget about 'NSVs,' otherwise known as Non-Scale Victories.
Are you taking the stairs instead of the elevator? Are you no longer doing that shimmy-hop-wiggle dance to get into your jeans? Did you pass up a slice of pizza?
These are are Non-Scale Victories: positive changes, realizations, compliments, feelings, or victories (small and large) that are independent of the scale. Have you taken inventory of those good things happening in your life right now?
These victories that should be celebrated throughout your journey. Be proud of these moments, they are the herald of change that will help you bust through your plateau over time.
What changes have you really made?
Weight loss isn't just about making a change on the scale.
Even though your ultimate goal is weight loss, the changes you have made are improving your health on the inside as well.
Think about it: what kind of work does your body have to do to lower your blood pressure, heal your liver, or normalize your insulin levels? That's some heavy lifting!
It's like hitting the HARD RESET button in every cell of your body. While you can't see, feel, weigh, or measure these changes directly, they are happening.
Have patience! All those little changes on the inside ARE quietly adding up to set you up for success in due time.
Seriously! You have to lose weight and keep it off in order to reach a plateau.
Losing weight and keeping it off rather than gaining it back is a great thing. For some, losing weight can be easy; it's maintaining the weight loss that is much more difficult. Keeping up with your healthy habits during a plateau is a sneak peek to your ability to maintain your weight loss forever.
So don't think of your plateau as a dead-end on your journey, but rather as a pit-stop for your body to re-calibrate and catch up to the changes going on inside of it.
In the meantime, just keep swimming!
Why did you start your journey?
In the first few days, your motivation was at an all-time high. The X-factor that motivated you to start your program such as your upcoming vacation, wedding, reunion, resolve to feel better, be a healthy role-model, or other life-changing event is the spark.
When you come up against a plateau, it's easy to forget about the spark that lit your fire.
Spend some time thinking about why you initially wanted to lose weight and how important it was to you. Take a moment to reaffirm what it is you truly desire.
The reflection will help stoke the fire you had at the beginning of your journey. Use that flame to drive out all those negative thoughts.
…so, about that person who used to give up? Don't you dare. That part of you is gone today. Your heart is stronger, your flame burns brighter.
Go. Live the life you desire, no regrets.

Starowola – wieś w Polsce położona w województwie podlaskim, w powiecie monieckim, w gminie Jaświły.

W 1921 wieś (ówcześnie kolonia) należała do gminy Kalinówka.

Według Powszechnego Spisu Ludności z 1921 roku kolonię zamieszkiwało 28 osób, wśród których 22 było wyznania rzymskokatolickiego, 5 prawosławnego i jedna mojżeszowego. Jednocześnie 22 mieszkańców zadeklarowało polską przynależność narodową, 5 białoruską a 1 żydowską. Było tu 4 budynki mieszkalne.

Jaświły (gmina)


Here we are at 94 of 800 – Buitenverwachting Constantia pronounced "Bay-ten-vir-wagh-ting" (try saying that five times, perfectly in row without stuttering). Buitenverwachting means 'Beyond expectation' and is a mere 12kms away from the city of Cape Town, South Africa. As the weather is starting to get warmer, this is a perfect venue for wine tasting, picnics and platters whilst basking in the sun.
What's great about Buitenverwachting Constantia is that if you are a family with younger children, you can bring a blanket and chill on the grass with a picnic and if you are a group of friends, then you can book a table on the stoep away from the children. It's a win-win situation really. I would recommend that you book in advance, this is a popular winery.
The Constantia wine valley is the oldest wine producing region in the Southern hemisphere celebrating 333 years in 2018 and so Buitenverwachting Constantia is, like most farms in this valley, historic. There are a few nice and modern upgrades though, so you can be rest assured to relax in luxurious and tasteful comfort that Constantia is known for.
Getting to the estate is not so easy as it is quite deep into the Constantia Wine Route with many twists and turns down winding roads – if you suffer from motion sickness, take the tablet beforehand! Parking is also very limited so I guess the early bird catches the worm or better still, just get an Uber.
The facilities of the estate include wine tasting with a selection of gourmet platters, a picnic lawn, a fine dining restaurant as well as a coffee shop. You can pretty much spend the entire day here. P.s. if your kids are scared of animals, be warned that dogs and chickens roam freely on the estate but they are extremely friendly.
The wine tasting room itself is quite small but I really like the fact that you can stand at the bar and taste too – that way, if there isn't a table available, you won't feel weird just waiting around. It feels quite homely too. Wine tasting starts at just R50 and you can choose from a rather large variety. The waiters will serve the wine to you, explaining each one as you go along. Service can sometimes be pretty slow but still good quality so take it easy and enjoy sipping.
The outside area is where all the magic happens. There are a range of smaller tables and really, really large tables too. Enquire about their fabulous picnics and gourmet platters to enjoy on the lawn area, pre-booking essential.
I was lucky to meet up with Assistant Winemaker – Thinus – who was able to give us a bit more insight into the wines and even a very special Pinot Noir MCC which is not for tasting.
Buitenverwachting Constantia has been internationally awarded for a range of wines such as their Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Blends, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and dessert wines – a really big portfolio actually.
My absolute favourite from this estate is the Maximus – a wooded Sauvignon Blanc which spent 15 months in French oak barrels. It reminds me of a Chenin with ripe melon and gooseberries on the nose. A dry, fuller bodied wine with a clean finish. I met up with the tasting room manager who was kind enough to show us a 1985 Blanc Fumé along side their export label (Bayten) and of course the local one, Maximus for comparison of the labels.
Of course, what's unique about all wines that come out of Constantia is the embossed Constantia label in the glass moulding of the bottle – 1685.
Another big bold wine is their awarded Meifort. The 2014 vintage won the best Bordeaux-style red blend at the Old Mutual Trophy Wine Show 2017.Be sure to ask for this one in the tasting room!Just look at this amazing trophy! This is my type of wine glass!
You simply cannot have a day at Buitenverwachting Constantia without booking a meal at the highly acclaimed restaurant. Meals are around R200 a pop so you know it's going to be top quality! For starters I had quail and for mains I had Springbok.
The service is exceptional and you will absolutely love pairing the different wines with the meals. Ensure you book in advance to get one of the best tables that overlook the vineyards.

If there's one thing that follows wine in Constantia, it is definitely coffee and cake! I can definitely vouch for the freshly brewed coffee served with the mouth watering Baked Cheesecake. What a great way to end a day of fine wines and dining.
What a great day of wine tasting in this beautiful valley that is Constantia! So what farm will be next?
Thank you Jared! Great day!

Very helpful, found us a flat which we could move into within a week when we were selling our house. Also great communication when we were looking to purchase a property from them, always willing to help and go the extra mile.
I didn't want to single out a single staff member at the top as I have dealt with all of the staff and they are all consummate professionals.
The going rate - always ask what they can do and they will help if they can.


With 150,000 employees in 70 countries, Cargill provides food, agriculture, financial and industrial products and services to the world. The company's Australian operation needed to retire its IBM i system and save the expenses associated with maintaining it. The company had moved all business applications off the IBM i systems but now it was time to migrate historical data into the new system. This information is critical for reference when there are customer complaints or inquiries about data processed in the old IBM i system.
Cargill looked at a number of solutions to convert the IBM i DB2 data into Excel spreadsheets and MS SQL databases. The main flaw with these approaches was that they only converted the data, not the business logic that would interpret the data and present it in a user-friendly manner. In addition, the payback of these approaches was too lengthy.
Almost all of the other migration suites convert the generated source – which ignores the business rules that are found in a CA 2E Data Model. The M3 migration suite converts directly from the business rules in the CA 2E data model into similar structured business rules in a CA Plex data model. This preserves the investment in business rule development and makes it easier for developers in CA 2E to quickly pick up and understand the business rules defined in CA Plex.
Cargill provided the CA 2E model, and HawkBridge and CM First Group automatically converted it into a working Java/MS SQL solution via CA Plex. HawkBridge then installed the solution, and Cargill converted their data (using scripts provided by HawkBridge) from IBM i to MS SQL.
Cargill's application has now been successfully migrated, enabling them to retire the IBM i system and reduce costs. By preserving the legacy business rules, CM M3 enabled Cargill to have the data from their old system at their fingertips in their new system.

Children's Mercy: Physician Daryl Lynch Guides Teens Through Adolescence /
Children's Mercy: Physician Daryl Lynch Guides Teens Through Adolescence
Travel, wine and work are passions for Daryl Lynch.
A full-time physician at Children's Mercy Hospital since 1991, Lynch has focused his entire career on adolescent medicine.
"It's a young field of medicine, created about 1975 or so and then becoming eligible for board certification in 1994," he said.
Only about 500 physicians worldwide – including Lynch – are certified in this specialty.
Lynch is senior medical director of ambulatory services at Children's Mercy, as well as director of the division of adolescent medicine.
He got his undergraduate degree at Friends University in Wichita and his medical degree at the University of Kansas. It took four years of medical school, three years of residency, and three years of fellowship to reach Lynch's certification.
"With one more year of training, I could have been a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills," said Lynch with a chuckle.
But it's apparent that he does not regret the choice. Clearly, working with teenagers at a leading pediatric hospital has been his true calling.
Lynch grew up in the remote southwestern Kansas town of Hugoton. His experience as an adolescent in a small community with limited support for LGBT youth was a major influence on his career choice.
Lynch was instrumental in bringing Children's Mercy to the Mid-America Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, viewing the chamber as a valuable asset to the hospital for recruitment and support.
"Once I came out," he said, "I became a crusader."
Lynch is an enthusiastic supporter of MAGLCC, enjoying the networking events personally and professionally. He believes the chamber could find ways to broaden its impact by reaching out to a greater diversity of businesses and including more "blue-collar" professions.
Children's Mercy received the Corporate Equality Award in 2014, recognizing leadership in LGBT equality initiatives, from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. It was the first hospital in Kansas City to receive the award. The hospital was also honored as a Leader in Healthcare Equality in the Human Rights Campaign's Healthcare Equality Index.
Lynch notes that Children's Mercy supports a transgender clinic called Gender Pathway Services that has a base of 100 families, one of the largest in the country.
Work and advocacy are priorities, but Lynch finds time for recreation as well. He is a member of six wine clubs, saying, "I like all kinds of wines."
And he is able and willing to search out good bottles.
"We love to travel," says Lynch, who shares his taste for good wine with his partner, Rubin. "Everywhere we go, I say, 'This is a nice place.'"
Their latest trip was to a village near San Diego, where they purchased some very nice wine, albeit with a bit of adventure. At the airport (despite the winery's assurance), the case of bottles to be checked had to be repacked individually, requiring some scrambling between the terminal and a FedEx store for supplies.
"I finally got my 12 bottles of wine, but it cost me 80 bucks to get it on the plane!" Lynch said.
In his other travels, spending two weeks in Hawaii is an important yearly tradition, and a trip to Italy is coming up soon.
However, Kansas City always pulls him back.
"Every time we have one of these discussions, you know, Kansas City is a nice place. It's affordable, it's cultured, we've got a nice gay community. We love our house and our neighbors!"
He has two daughters that he is most proud of, noting that they "really like helping."
And the same, of course, can also be said for Lynch.

"1993 Federal Duck Stamp"
7x10 Acrylic on board
Winning the Federal Duck Stamp contest will easily rank and one of life's highlights. Back when I won in 1993, it was a life-changing event, both financially and professionally, and a much bigger deal than it is now. After winning the contest in November of 1992, Deb and I were flown to the White House and met President George Bush Sr. in the Oval Office. It was a huge year with me also being chosen as Artist of the Year for the Wildlife and Western Art Show in Mpls, and I had also won the 1993 Minnesota Pheasant Stamp. And I also did four other state stamp designs that year! I remember thinking that year would be hard to top professionally, and I was right. In Mound we had a big celebration for the "First Day of Sale" for the stamp. More than 500 people attended the ceremony at the Pond arena. I had invited all seven of the past federal duck stamp winners (from Minnesota) to the event, including Les Kouba, David Maass, and Dan Smith. My dad Howard, introduced me, which was very special and I was awarded a big sign that still stands at the corner of Cty 110 and Cty 44 in Mound: The Bruce Miller Wildlife Preserve, of which I've always been proud.

"Give Russia a chance: you'll never regret it" – sports minister
Published time: 2 Dec, 2010 13:11 Edited time: 2 Dec, 2010 21:07
The FIFA executive committee has selected Russia to host the World Cup in 2018 – a choice, which, according to Russian Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko, the football governing body "will never regret".
The Russian team was the last to reveal their trump cards on Thursday. They were the final 2018 candidates, following Belgium/the Netherlands, Spain/Portugal and England, to present their case face-to-face with FIFA's 22 executive committee members. Though perhaps not as emotional as the English, their presentation seemed the most informative and convincing.
The Netherlands and Belgium
The Holland/Belgium joint bid was the first candidate for the 2018 World Cup to make their bid presentation at FIFA headquarters in Zurich on Thursday.
It was back to the future as their presentation began with some video trickery making it appear that Johann Cruyff was predicting that the World Cup would be hosted by the Netherlands and Belgium in 2018.
Then bid president Ruud Gullit stressed the compact nature of the two countries:
"Number one – we are a compact bid. Our limited size is our real strength, beneficial for players, fans and, of course, for the visitors."
The Netherlands/Belgium team have been keen to stress the environmental friendliness of their bid and also made a special accent on the fun and enjoyment always available in the two countries.
"Believe me, it's great fun in our countries – the bars, the restaurants, the terraces, the pubs – every host city has thousands of them," stressed the bid ambassador, Jean-Marie Pfaff.
Former Russia coach Guus Hiddink also spoke in support of his homeland's bid. Moments after Ruud Gullit, Hiddink also noted that the size of the countries involved is the most important factor for footballers and coaches.
"One of the things in the Holland/Belgium bid I think is time. It's very compact – as a coach, preparing your team you want to go back after the game as soon as possible," he said.
Gullit finished by highlighting the fact that all the countries surrounding Holland and Belgium had already hosted a World Cup – and as founding members of FIFA, they deserved their chance.
The Iberian bid presentation was done against the background of the World Cup, which Spain claimed in South Africa last summer. The simple move was designed to stress who is currently the best in the sport and who deserves the 2018 WC most. However, the bid team did not choose to have any former or current football players helping to make their presentation.
The bid's focus was on facilities, with lots of details highlighting the infrastructure that exists in the countries.
"If this bid wins, well it will have a European organization carried out by two European countries – but it will have more than that. What I am referring to is a bid that will shine out. It's a bid that goes above and beyond our two countries – basically, we will look out to all continents," Prime Minister of Portugal Jose Socrates stated.
"First and foremost we offer a lot of motivation. We want to organize the World Cup in 2018, but we also offer infrastructural capacities and special conditions in our countries which imply that we could organize a World Cup next month if it were necessary," said Spanish PM Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero.
All bid teams were given 30 minutes in which to work their powers of persuasion on FIFA's executive committee, but the Iberian team overran by more than ten minutes. That was due to an impassioned speech by Angel Maria Villar – Iberian bid president and a member of FIFA's executive committee, who expressed his love and support for the sport's governing body:
"FIFA is a clean institute, FIFA works honestly for football and for the world and all of my colleagues here present you are all honest hard working and care about football."
The English bid was presented in style by British Prime Minister David Cameron, Prince William and David Beckham.
The main accent was made on England's pledge to invest in football's global development.
"It's not just about us," Prince William said. "I give you an assurance that England is committed to playing its full and proper role in developing football internationally."
Echoing the Holland/Belgium presentation, Prince William also emphasized the party atmosphere that fans would enjoy in England. He referenced his marriage to Kate Middleton at Westminster Abbey next year, which has captivated interest around the world.
"Our dream is to stage a World Cup that makes you, your grandchildren and everyone in football truly proud," said Beckham.
British Prime Minister David Cameron used his speech to highlight how the diversity that exists in England will make the country a welcoming environment for fans and players.
Bid chief executive Andy Anson reminded FIFA President Sepp Blatter that he has said England could host the World Cup almost immediately.
Most of the stadiums that would host matches in 2018 are already in place, including Wembley Stadium and Old Trafford.
England used the video presentations in its showcase to demonstrate the success of the Premier League, showing fans around the world wearing replica shirts while watching matches.
The Russian 2018 World Cup bid delegation called on FIFA to help change their country's history. Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov promised that hosting the World Cup would help build a "completely different nation."
"Without your help we will achieve our goals – but with your help, we will achieve much more. It's going to be completely different nation, open to the entire world," he stressed.
Russia's Sports Minister, who is also a FIFA executive committee member, Vitaly Mutko, explained how important Thursday's FIFA decision is for the country.
"Our bid is a national priority for the Russian nation – if you give us the chance, FIFA, you will never regret it. You will be proud of the choice I guarantee it," he said.
The Russian bid is of a staggering scale – encompassing 16 stadiums clumped into four regions and linked by free overland travel.
Current Russian team captain Andrey Arshavin talked about the personal effect football has had on his life and how FIFA can help shape Russia's future:
"You are leaders of the world of football. You are entrusted to make the decision which will echo for a generation. Believe in us, believe in Russia and we will play as one team with FIFA," he promised.

After Netanyahu comments, Germany says responsibility for Holocaust is ours
Reuters October 21, 2015

BERLIN (Reuters) - The German government said on Wednesday that responsibility for the Holocaust lay with the Germans, after Israel's prime minister sparked controversy before a visit to Berlin by saying a Muslim elder had convinced Adolf Hitler to exterminate Jews.
"All Germans know the history of the murderous race mania of the Nazis that led to the break with civilization that was the Holocaust," Chancellor Angela Merkel's spokesman Steffen Seibert said when asked about Benjamin Netanyahu's remarks.
"This is taught in German schools for good reason, it must never be forgotten. And I see no reason to change our view of history in any way. We know that responsibility for this crime against humanity is German and very much our own."
Hours before leaving for Berlin, Netanyahu referred in a speech to a series of attacks by Muslims against Jews in Palestine during the 1920s that he said were instigated by the then Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini.
"Hitler didn't want to exterminate the Jews at the time, he wanted to expel the Jews," Netanyahu said in the speech. "And Haj Amin al-Husseini went to Hitler and said, 'If you expel them, they'll all come here.'

Reality Check: Has there been a surge in youth turnout?
The claim: Turnout surged among young voters - some are saying to 72% - which boosted Labour's performance in the election.
Reality Check verdict: We do not yet have any reliable figures for turnout by different age groups. While it is true that seats with the highest proportions of 18 to 24-year-olds had above average swings to Labour, there are plenty of seats with big swings to Labour and low proportions of young people.
The anecdotes began to roll in shortly after the polls closed: in places where the young had not voted for years they were turning out in force, queuing down the street for their chance to vote.
A figure of 72% turnout for 18 to 24-year-olds has been doing the rounds, including in a tweet from Labour MP David Lammy, but there has been much doubt about its origin.
BBC Trending has spoken to Alex Cairns, who seems to have been the first person to tweet this. It was later tweeted by the president of the National Union of Students.
Mr Cairns stressed that the figure was "an indication" and was based on conversations with student union presidents and his own research, but did not show us his calculations.
A 72% turnout for that age group would be remarkable given that Ipsos Mori estimated that only 43% of that age group voted in 2010 and 44% in 2015, but as yet we have no evidence that happened.
The overall turnout was 68.7%, the highest since 1997.
Heartland and strongholds and lost deposits - the result, in maps
The places where power changed hands
A record number of female MPs
Is there actual evidence for a surge in youth turnout?
The general election is obviously a secret ballot, so we don't find out how different age groups voted from there.
The exit poll, which did an excellent job of predicting the outcome of the election, did not ask any questions other than how people voted (it used to, but doesn't any more).
Ipsos Mori is carrying out research, which will come up with estimates for the turnout broken down by age group, but that won't be published until next week.
So, what can we say now about voting patterns among young people?
We could look at voter registration among young people, which is indeed high, but you'd expect it to be because it includes people registering to vote for the first time and people moving house, which young people are more likely to do.
While we don't have figures for turnout broken down by age groups, we do know which constituencies have the highest proportions of young people living in them.
It is true to say that there has been an increase in turnout in constituencies with the largest numbers of young people, but not significantly greater than the increase in turnout in constituencies in general.
The only five constituencies where the turnout increased by more than 10 percentage points were Hackney North, Hackney South and Ilford South in south-east England, and South Down and Foyle in Northern Ireland, all of which have pretty average populations between 18 and 24.
If you look at a breakdown of the Labour vote, constituencies with the highest proportions of young people did indeed see relatively large increases in their Labour votes.
The 10 constituencies with the highest proportions of 18 to 24-year-olds posted increases in the Labour vote of more than 14%.
The biggest swing to Labour was in Bristol West where it grew 30% - it has the eighth highest proportion of 18 to 24 year olds in the country - it's the home of Bristol University.
Prof John Curtice points out that in England and Wales there was a 2.5% swing to Labour in seats where fewer than 7% of the population is aged 18 to 24. In seats where at least one in 10 people is of that age, there was a swing of 5%.
But if you look at all 91 constituencies where the Labour vote increased by more than 14%, the proportion of 18 to 24 year olds is only slightly above average (about 12%, when the average is about 9%).
If you look at the 35 Labour gains, only 15 of them had more 18 to 24 year olds than average.
This analysis is based on figures when one result still had not been declared.

Tyson Hesse's Diesel: Ignition
Diandra "Dee" Diesel lost her adopted father long ago, when the Birdmen kidnapped or killed him. Now she's just counting down the days until she can take over his ship as Captain. There are just a few problems. First, the traveling community ship of Peacetowne already has a captain (and a first mate) and Dee isn't exactly qualified to take over. Second, the birdmen are back. Third, she's lost with no friends or help except her old robot Rick. As Dee travels to the wastelands below the clouds and back up again to the glorious capital city, she will encounter prejudice and injustice, family that isn't as close as she always thought, and come face to face with her own choices.
The art shows a complex and vibrant world, from the beautiful cloud cities to the dark wastelands below. Every protagonist has a different design, although Dee, the Captain, and most of the other women are comic-book skinny. There are bull-like creatures with horns and large, black eyes, a variety of humanoids, and the terrifying bird men, shown as giant, hawk-like creatures with broken English.
Dee is, frankly, not a likable character. She refuses to make any effort to learn or contribute, but wants to take over and run things because it's her adopted father's legacy. But there are a lot of secrets hidden in her father's past - and she resolutely refuses to listen to any suggestions that he might not be the hero she always thought him. She's oblivious to the prejudice and injustice experienced by members of her own adopted family, until she's bludgeoned over the head with it. But readers will gradually see a change as she starts taking responsibility for her own actions, listening to her friends and family, and using her abilities to make a difference. Ultimately, it's refreshing to see a central character, especially a women, who's allowed to be less than perfect, who makes stupid mistakes, and doesn't change overnight to the perfect role model.
Verdict: There isn't a good age range given for this, but I would say it's appropriate for readers who enjoy other fast-paced, action fantasy comics like 5 Worlds or Amulet.

Curb appeal is an aspect of design that some people forget about. It's not the interior of a house so it's sometimes not associated with interior design. However, it is still design. I love driving around looking at houses and admiring the look from the outside. I love looking at landscaping, house colors, and front porches.
Enhancing the curb appeal of our house is on our to-do list. We love the way our house looks on the outside, but there are some updates we want to do.
This is our house currently.
There isn't a ton we want to do, but just enough to make it look updated. We aren't changing anything about the house itself, however, we are getting a new front door. We want to pull up the green bushes by the front window and the big tree by the driveway. The huge bush by the steps needs some serious trimming. We are waiting to see if the leaves fall before we do too much to it.
Adding some flowers and small shrubbery in the front and along the walkway is also on our list. We would love to do a brick paver along the walkway and the steps and have also talked about adding a railing along the steps and the porch.
These are all things we will change over time. We have a few other projects we want to tackle inside that will probably take priority.
Check back soon for an update on our front door! We are installing it this weekend and I am so excited!


Remember when T-Mobile didn't have LTE service? You know, just under two years ago? Remember when they released a version of the Galaxy S III without LTE (SGH-T999), then another with LTE (SGH-T999L), ensuring that some customers would be pissed and others would be confused? If you do, and you bought the latter LTE-enabled version of Samsung's 2012 flagship, check your status bar: you might just have a software update waiting.
This is the Android 4.3 update that Samsung has been sending to the various models of the Galaxy S III, S4, and Note II across all American carriers, including the non-LTE version of T-Mobile's S III.
As you can see, almost everyone should have a 4.3 update ready by the end of November, with T-Mobile's Note II stretching into early December and AT&T's exclusive Galaxy S4 Active waiting until almost Christmas.
So the Samsung Galaxy S4 isn't doing it for you (or you don't want to spend the extra dough for one on T-Mobile's new contract-free plans) but you still want that sweet, sweet LTE speed. No worries: the carrier has been planning on releasing an updated model of the still-popular Galaxy S III to take advantage of their fledgling long term evolution network. Tmo's Galaxy S III LTE is available now on the web store, for $549.99 outright. You can also choose to pay $69.99 down and $20 a month over 24 months. It looks like the phone is only available in white at the moment.

Кавер-версии
 В 2005 году кавер-версию для Европы записал сальвадорский певец . Из-за поспешного выхода версии между продюсерами певца и продюсерами Дэдди Янки возник скандал.
 Пародийную версию в духе «misheard lyrics» под названием «Убери ногу с газа, Лина» записал в середине 2000-х немецкий хип-хоп исполнитель русского происхождения Вавян при участии исполнителей Sven & Miisi.

How Companies Can Engage Customers by Using Social Plastic in Product Packaging
Amcor and Bemis to combine in $6.8 billion deal
Amcor Limited and Bemis Company, Inc. have today announced that their respective boards of directors have unanimously approved a definitive agreement under which Amcor will acquire Bemis in an all-stock combination.
Combining these two complementary companies will create the global leader in consumer packaging, with the footprint, scale and capabilities to drive significant value for shareholders, offer customers and employees the most compelling value proposition in the packaging industry and deliver the most sustainable innovations for the environment.
The transaction will be effected at a fixed exchange ratio of 5.1 Amcor shares for each Bemis share, resulting in Amcor and Bemis shareholders owning approximately 71% and 29% of the combined company, respectively. This is equivalent to a transaction price of US$57.75 per Bemis share based on Amcor's closing share price of A$15.28(4) on August 3, 2018, and represents a premium of 25% to Bemis' closing price of US$46.31 per share as of August 2, 2018(5).
Amcor's CEO, Ron Delia, said: "The strategic rationale for this combination and the financial benefits are highly compelling for both Amcor and Bemis shareholders. We are convinced this is the right deal at the right time for both companies, and with the right structure for both sets of shareholders to participate in a unique value creation opportunity. Amcor identified flexible packaging in the Americas as a key growth priority and this transaction delivers a step change in that region.
"There are an increasing number of opportunities arising for a leading packaging company to capitalise on shifting consumer needs, an evolving customer landscape and the need to provide responsible packaging solutions that protect the environment. With this transaction, Amcor will have a stronger value proposition with the scale, breadth and resources to unlock value from these opportunities, for the benefit of our shareholders, customers and employees.
"Amcor's financial profile will be enhanced, and our existing capital allocation framework, or shareholder value creation model, will be maintained and strengthened with this transaction. The combined company expects to have an investment grade balance sheet that provides immediate capacity for further disciplined investment as well as a compelling, progressive dividend. Amcor will draw on our extensive merger integration experience to deliver the substantial benefits of this combination."
Bemis' President and CEO, William F. Austen, said: "The combination of Bemis and Amcor is transformational, bringing together two highly complementary organisations to create a global leader in consumer packaging. We believe this combination, which is an exciting growth story for both companies, will benefit all stakeholders. Our employees will benefit as part of a larger and more global organisation focused on a commitment to customer service, integrity and supporting strong teams. In addition, the combination will enable us to offer global, regional and local customers the most compelling value proposition in the industry through a broader product portfolio, increased product differentiation and enhanced operating capabilities, while leveraging Bemis' extensive U.S. manufacturing base and strengths in material science and innovation. Our shareholders will receive a significant premium in this transaction, reflecting the value we've built as an organisation, as well as the opportunity to continue to participate in the upside potential of a more diversified combined company with greater scale and resources. We look forward to working together with Amcor to ensure a seamless integration." Amcor's CEO, Ron Delia, concluded, "Amcor and Bemis have many things in common starting with proud histories that date back more than 150 years. Both companies are grounded in strong values, a shared commitment to innovation and value-added consumer packaging, and have talented management teams."
"We have always had a great deal of respect for Bemis and we are thrilled that its team in Wisconsin and around the world will be joining Amcor. Many people at Amcor today have joined us through acquisitions, including many of our leadership team, and we would expect Bemis to be well represented in Amcor at all levels of the organisation."
Strategic Rationale
After completion of the transaction, Amcor will have a stronger and more differentiated value proposition for global, regional and local customers through:
Comprehensive global footprint with more balanced, profitable exposure to emerging markets: A global flexible packaging footprint across key geographies; a larger, more balanced and more profitable emerging markets business, with sales of some US$3.5 billion from around 30 emerging markets;
Greater scale to better serve customers in every region: Increased economies of scale and resources through Amcor's leading positions in Europe, Asia and Latin America, and Bemis' leading positions in North America and Brazil;
Increased exposure to attractive end markets and product segments: An enhanced growth profile from greater global participation in protein and healthcare packaging, leveraging innovative technologies in barrier films and foils;
Best-in-class operating and innovation capabilities: Greater differentiation to innovate and meet customer demands for new and sustainable products through the deployment of proven, industry-leading commercial, operational and R&D capabilities;
A continued strong commitment to environmental sustainability: Enhanced capabilities behind Amcor's pledge to develop all recyclable or reusable packaging products by 2025; and
Greater depth of management talent: A stronger combined team by bringing the significant strengths and quality of the workforce across both companies.
Transaction Structure
The combination will be effected through a merger of Amcor and Bemis into a newly created holding company ('New Amcor') incorporated in Jersey. It is intended that New Amcor will be tax resident in the UK after closing. New Amcor will have a primary listing on the NYSE and a listing on the ASX. Amcor and Bemis shareholders will receive shares in New Amcor in a tax-free exchange. Existing Amcor shareholders will have the option to receive one New Amcor ASX listed CDI or one New Amcor NYSE listed share for each Amcor share held. Bemis shareholders will receive 5.1 New Amcor NYSE shares for each Bemis share held, resulting in Amcor and Bemis shareholders owning approximately 71% and 29% of the combined company, respectively.
Governance and Community
Upon completion of the transaction, New Amcor's Board is expected to comprise 11 members, eight of whom are current Amcor directors, and three of whom are current Bemis directors. Amcor's current Chairman, Graeme Liebelt and current CEO Ron Delia will continue in those roles after the transaction and Mr. Delia will continue to serve as the only Executive Director on the Board. New Amcor will continue to maintain a critical presence in Wisconsin and other key Bemis locations. The combined company also expects to leverage Bemis' plant network and innovation center while continuing to invest in the U.S. New Amcor will continue to support the communities in which Bemis operates and announced today a contribution of US$35,000 to the Bemis Foundation on behalf of Amcor's 35,000 employees world-wide.

The anomaly of the music industry and the epitome of 'Black Girl Magic,' Aretha Franklin gives me heaps of hope and inspiration for all the women of my generation and those to follow. She boldly reinforced her rights to refuse anyone that didn't appreciate her worth. And for those that did value her talent, she only had the time if they HAD THE DIME! It makes you sit back and think about every time you might've low-balled yourself to make yourself available and useful for other's needs and wants or all the times you wanted a job to take you instead of you taking the job.
Aretha, both an angel and a diva, has helped me think twice about how I manage and assess my talents as a woman of color. And now that I'm inspired and no longer have to take my talents to Magic City to supplement for unpaid invoices, let me walk to my bosses office and demand my cash advance, right quick (say a little prayer for me, *wink wink*). Thank you, Ms. 'RETHA! Sleep in Power.


Both of our kids were home for dinner last night. We've seen them both a few times since school started, but it's rare these days for both to be here at the same time.
The new Andrew Smith book Rabbit & Robot and Iron Flower by Laurie Forest both arrived at the library this week.
The Walking Dead comes back tonight. I know it's the cool thing now to hate the show, but I still like it and I'm interested to see how they write out the main guy.
We're in a good sports period. Postseason baseball has started, the NFL is ongoing, the NHL has started, college football is going strong, NBA preseason is here and college basketball is right around the corner. It's even better because my teams are doing well.
We've had a nice stretch of days with no rain. We did have one storm Thursday night, but other than that it has been dry. We've also had some nice cool days and more are coming next weekend.
I'm thankful for coffee. A few minutes relaxing with a good cup of coffee can help make a bad day better.
I am completely unaware of whatever drama there is with the public school parents of Anne Arundel county. I've unliked the school system Facebook page, I no longer follow them on Twitter and I no longer belong to any associated groups. One of the bonuses of being an empty nester.
Meetings at the offices next door to my old branch meant seeing friends more than usual. I just wish they would schedule my meetings on farmer's market day.
Future me will be thankful that today me has decided to stop insisting on 10 things on this list every week.
I am going to try to remember to write things down this week. It will make this a lot easier.
