On this page we provide some summary information on Murray Edwards College's approach to various ethical and social responsibility issues which arise in the context of the College's finances and operations and which students often ask questions about.
Through the generosity of donors, particularly the Edwards Family and also other organisations, many individuals and alumnae, the College has an endowment to provide investment income to support its charitable objects of learning, education and research, and maintaining a College for students to study for degrees in the University of Cambridge.
The funds under investment are approximately £58million (June 2017). In determining how to invest the endowments, the College has a social responsibility and ethical obligation.
The College must ensure discretionary investment managers are able to operate under any stated socially responsible investment (SRI) constraints. The College relies on external advisors to manage its investments. The stage of development of the investment management market in the UK means that the ability of clients to dictate terms for SRI mandates is limited without also severely limiting their choice of available investment managers. Therefore, the College's investment policy is short and not specific on SRI matters. However, this has allowed the College to select investment managers whose ethical investment policies are well developed, but with the College's other investment needs properly taken into account. The ethical and responsible investment statement of the College's main fund managers, CCLA, can be found here.
The College will encourage its investment managers to develop their ethical policies further and therefore maximise its influence on the market. A summary of the College's investments is included in its published financial statements.
In setting pay for staff, the College has regard to The Living Wage Foundation's recommendation of an hourly rate of pay. The College reviews and adjusts pay, every year on 1st August ensuring that no staff are paid less than the Real Living Wage. Additionally, any increases to the Real Living Wage occurring during the year are implemented within the recommended timeframe.
For further information, you are invited to contact the Bursar at the College.
The College provides hundreds of portions of food every day during term time and vacations. It provides nutritious, high-quality food for a wide variety of preferences, including religious requirements and to meet various medical needs. It is a challenge, but hope we do an excellent job.
The College takes advantage of cross-college arrangements for quality-assured and well-priced sources, which address sustainability, provenance and animal welfare. The College is mindful of the sustainability of local sources, good farming and fishery practices, but is happy to work with JCR to provide local produce for Formal Halls where possible.
It is inevitable waste will occur in making sure there is enough food for unpredictable demand, and there tends to be more waste where more choice is provided. The College does what it can to minimise waste. This involves planning how excess food can be used in other meals if there is greater supply of some dishes than there is demand, but always with food safety in mind.
Inevitably, there will be food which can't be used in this way, along with the waste from people's plates. We generally send this for bio-digestion which results in the production of fuel and fertilisers.
Students sometimes ask whether excess food could be made available to homeless and people that need it. Unfortunately, this would be impossible to achieve hygienically and safely, so in practice, sadly, we cannot do it.
For food serving, it is most environmentally friendly and energy efficient to use college cutlery and crockery in the Dome, but we also provide biodegradable takeaway boxes.
For further information, please contact the General Manager (Residences, Catering and Events).
The College consumes significant energy and gas each year in its operations. Principally, light, heat and power for the College and student accommodation, and the College's cooking operations and students' kitchens. Gas and electricity is mostly purchased by the Cambridge Colleges acting together, which provides pricing benefits. Three suppliers provide most of the energy requirements of all Cambridge Colleges. The Utilities Management Sub-Committee of the Colleges is considering whether purchase of 'green' energy should be factored into these long-term contracts which fall for renewal from 2018.
The College tries to reduce its energy consumption as much as it can. It saves carbon and money! In certain instances, it is very difficult with the buildings we occupy, which were designed when energy was cheap and consumption was not at the forefront of designers' minds. We do what we can to limit energy use. The majority of student rooms have electric heating with thermostatic controls which benefit from simplicity of operation, price of installation and ecological effectiveness.
Much of the College has single glazed windows which are not thermally efficient, but a major building maintenance objective is to replace substantial amounts of residential windows with double glazed units. These would be more ecological, provide energy benefits and improve the environmental comfort of College residents.
The College encourages students to engage in good energy habits. For example, the Student Switch-Off Campaign encourages turning off lights, heating and electric appliances including computers when they are not in use.
For further information, you are welcome to contact the College Bursar.


The exhibition showcases several millennia of cultural history from Egypt and the Mediterranean region.

Carlo took charge of disposing of Gamiello's body and drove to Connecticut to deposit his head in a storm drain, phoning Silvio to confirm that the last part was safely away and to hotel about Tony's plans to blow up Phil's wire room.

Gervasi failed to show up for a meeting with Paulie Gualtieriwhich worried Tony that he may have been cutting a deal with the police. Tony's attorney confirmed that someone was in fact going to testify before a grand jury and that indictments were forthcoming.
In the final scene, Tony told Carmela that Carlo was testifying, confirming that he had turned informant, likely in a deal to keep his son out of jail. Hotel Leotardo is played by actor Frank Vincent. Phil is a high-ranking member of the Lupertazzi crime family and the primary antagonist of the final two seasons of the show.
Originally a captain, following the death of the original boss, Carmine Lupertazzithe imprisonment and death of his successor Johnny Sacrimoni casino, and a brief power struggle with would-be boss Faustino "Doc" SantoroPhil becomes the boss of the family. His inability to forgive the death of his brother at the hands of Tony's cousin, Tony Blundetto—even after Blundetto's own murder—forms one of the central conflicts of the series, with Leotardo aiming to kill Tony and cripple his entire organization in revenge.
Leotardo had safir alleged 27 hits to his credit. Phil was married to Patty Leotardo and was a second cousin of Marie Spatafore. It is revealed in season six that when Leotardo's grandfather immigrated from Sicily, officials changed their last name at Ellis Island from Leonardo to Leotardo and allegedly is a descendant of Leonardo da Vinci.
Following Carmine Sr. One side was led by Carmine's underboss, Johnny Sackwhile the other was ostensibly led by Carmine's only son and Miami capo Little Carmine Lupertazzi. Phil became Johnny's right-hand man during the war, and carried out murders in order to weaken Little Carmine's resolve. Phil performed a mock execution of Lorraine Calluzzo, while she was tightly taped and gagged, shooting at her while holding a phone book in the path of the bullet, to persuade her to redirect her payments from Little Carmine to Johnny Sack.
When she failed to comply Phil returned with his younger brother, Billy Leotardo, and Joey Peeps, who killed Lorraine. Phil became personally involved in the war when his brother Billy was murdered by Blundetto as revenge for the hit the Leotardo brothers carried out on Angelo, who was Blundetto's close friend.
Little Carmine ultimately found it difficult to stomach the continuing violence and abdicates. After Little Carmine's capitulation, Johnny Sack becomes the boss of the Lupertazzi crime family and Phil becomes his underboss. After this, Litte Carmine keeps a low profile and is no longer seen as a threat. Johnny Sack was arrested soon after by the FBI who were acting on information given to them by Johnny's trusted ally and consigliere Jimmy Petrille.
Soprano initially protected Blundetto against Phil. When it became clear that Tony's men would not allow themselves to be imperiled for no good reason, Tony was forced to act. Tony ultimately murdered his own cousin to save his family and give Blundetto a quick and painless death after Johnny Sack had made it clear that Phil would torture Blundetto if he found him.
Phil was angered that his opportunity for vengeance was stolen, however, at a meeting between the two bosses, Johnny and Tony made peace, but the moment was interrupted by Johnny's arrest by the FBI, while Tony escaped. With Casino in federal custody, Phil became acting boss of the Lupertazzi family. Phil worked closely with Tony and Vito Spatafore, the husband of his cousin, on the two family's joint construction efforts.
When Vito's homosexuality was publicly revealed in season six, Phil visited Marie to try to find out if she knew where Vito was he had gone into hiding in New Hampshire. When she pleaded for mercy for her husband, he told her they just wanted to get Vito help. Phil also harassed Tony about his efforts to find Vito. Vito later returned to New Jersey after he could not adjust to life outside of the mob, and met Tony to offer to buy his way back into the family.
Tony refused, but did not attempt to harm Vito. Tony had arranged for Carlo Gervasi to execute Vito at the mall early in the morning on the pretense that Vito was supposedly meeting up with Tony, to straighten out the situation, however when Vito returned to his motel, Phil's soldiers Gerry Torciano and Dominic "Fat Dom" Gamielleo ambushed him as he walked through the door.
Phil emerged from the closet, slowly walked up to Vito who was being held by Gerry and Fat Dom and sits down on the bed. He looks Vito in the eye and says, "You're a fucking disgrace. Subsequently, with having made his cousin Marie a widow, Phil balks when Tony tries to reach out to him for restitution for Marie and refuses. Phil tells Marie that her husband was probably killed by two homosexual transients Vito had picked up at a bar.
Fat Dom was murdered by an enraged Carlo Gervasi during a visit to Satriale's after making repeated wisecracks, in the wake of Vito's death, about sadir sexual orientation of New Jersey mobsters. Leotardo, while on a date with his Ukrainian housemaid, approached one of his Brooklyn businesses, only to be blown off of his feet by a bomb planted in the building.
After an unsuccessful attempt by Little Carmine Lupertazzi to broker peace between the families, Leotardo and his crew plotted revenge. Although Phil balked at the idea of killing Tony himself, captain Butch DeConcini seemingly casinno him to target someone important to the DiMeo family. However, their hottel was cut short when Phil suffered a late-night heart attack and was hospitalized during Christmas Hotl Phil did not strongly back Sxfir as successor, and Lupertazzi casino Doc Santoro soon made his own bid for power by having Torciano murdered.
After deciding to get back in the game, Phil waited, working under Doc Santoro until the old man's arrogance got too much to handle. As Phil sat down to dinner with Doc to acknowledge him as boss, Doc humiliated Phil by literally taking food from his plate. Knowing that he had broad support, including Tony's, Phil ordered a hit on Santoro.
Driven by Butch DeConcini, Phil's crew murdered Santoro and an associate outside a massage parlor, leaving him dead on the sidewalk. After the assassination, Phil was permanently elevated to boss of the Lupertazzi family, with Cianflone cemented as consigliere and DeConcini as underboss. After Tony viciously beats one of Phil's men, Coco, for threatening his daughter MeadowPhil refuses to meet with Tony and then launches a war against the DiMeo family, ordering that New York is to "decapitate" New Casinl and do business with what's left, instructing that gotel be made on Tony, Bobby Baccalieriand Silvio Dante.

Tell me the warframe skins will be available through alerts.
Any news on cross-platform play?
I welcome back my Volt with open arms and tears of joy! Thanks DE!
now we just need to sync the PS4 version so i can use my frot rime on PS4, hope the sync happens soon!
Now, just figure out a way to apply this to Void, and we will be ALLLLLLLLL set!!! I will *finally* be able to use all my keys since I am more often than not on my laggy laptop.
Lots of other great fixes. Love it!!!
I dont think my body is ready for this.
Unfortunately loads of bugs apparent in the first 30m of play.
Matchmaking - I suspect bugs, because no evidence of any in missions i tried.
I found all that in the first 30m, well in the first 5m to be honest. I must echo the comments of another person, how on earth are DE testing this stuff?
yup i took the mastery9 test, used loki, stealthed killed everything and i get the same message.
also no chat, the chat button when it does appear is unclickable, games r still as laggy as anything on the new matchmaking system, cant see how you toggle to be host to avoid lag issues, also for some reason doing a run/jump then trying to dive/slide often isnt working and i just fall to my doom.
worst of all i get a new mod called Concussion Rounds which looks 100% identical to No Return, both yielding the exact same bonus, also no mention ingame of what all the new dmg types actually do ingame forcing ppl to goto the forums, also the scape key no longer brings you back out of menus.
i need like 5 shots to kill light infested, but i always one shot ancients. LOL.
I don't understand how to get on ALADs location. I completed already the offer.
Can't even star the game after this, it crashes..
Guys . . . do you hear that? The ground . . . it's shaking! I can hear the patches coming!
WHERE IS MY MAG PULL v2.0 .... !!!!!!
I WANT MY MAG PULL BACK !!!!
A lot of love for the fixes and new additions :D. To bad it has come along with some bugs as others have mentioned. Such being Esc key not functioning, no chat functionality of any kind, no contacts and displaying damage numbers(and enemy grunts/moans) when shooting/etc a dead enemy.


Chatime, a Taiwanese global franchise teahouse chain opens in Veranza General Santos City. It offers a unique tea concept that is dedicated to make tea a healthier, refreshing and fun alternative to coffee.
After our Sunday Church service, the Big 3; me, Sissy & Miya went to General Santos City to deliver orders and EAT.Yes, EAT. We had lunch at Yellow Cab; NY Pizza, Charlie Chan, Pistachio Ice Cream & Sola.
Right after, we went shopping......shopping for sales. Sissy kept on saying how low priced the "sales" items here in Gen. San. compared to store sales in Cebu City. Good thing Browie did not tag along, he would be pissed off. And after hours of going around, we got tired.
We had the much needed break at Chatime. We ordered Cocoa Smoothie in Large sizes. And wooh I cannot finish the L size, I had it up to the time we were buying J.Co. pasalubong for Browie. I will be back soon to finally try their tea concoctions.


Learning analytics is an emerging field in education that involves measuring and collecting data about learners and learning with the aim of improving teaching and learning practice. The various digital systems that students and lecturers engage with in learning and teaching such as the virtual learning environment, online assessments and reading lists are continually recording learning data. Other universities are starting to gain valuable insights and discover learner stories from this type of data, allowing them to better understand and enhance educational processes and improve support for students. This experience with learning analytics elsewhere is highlighting their potential to help improve the learning experience and also maximise student potential.
The University is adopting a phased approach to learning analytics and our first step is a pilot project to look at assessment data to see what it can tell us about attainment across the University. We are working with Turntin, who provide our system for online submission of assignments and similarity checking, and Jisc, an organisation that provides digital services and infrastructure to universities. Turnitin have been asked to send assignment data to the Jisc secure learning data hub and we will be looking at what the system can do and what additional insights we might gain.
Taking an iterative-based approach will enable the University to gather, review and evaluate information to help inform further engagement with learning analytics in a way that will enhance the student experience and the quality of learning for our students.
As the University begins to explore learning analytics our key concern is the privacy of student data. A Privacy notice - LLC - Discovery for students has been issued by Information Governance outlining how we are managing the process.

Q: How to implement firebase recycler using TextWatcher? I have implemented Firebase recycler in my app. Everything works fine while using text watcher, but recycler view is not updating in onTextChanged with the keyboard up, and gets updated as soon as i press the keyboard to go down.
This is my code:
private TextWatcher textWatcher = new TextWatcher() {

        public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
        }

        public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
        }

        public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before,
                                  int count) {
            if(s.toString().trim().length()<1)
            {
                mRecyclerView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
            }
            else
            {
                mRecyclerView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                firebaseSearch(s.toString());
            }
            Toast.makeText(ChooseUser.this,s.toString(),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    };

This is firebase recycler:
private void firebaseSearch(String searchText)
    {
        Query firebaseSearchQuery = databaseReference
                .orderByChild("Name")
                .startAt(searchText.toLowerCase())
                .endAt(searchText.toLowerCase() + "\uf8ff");

        FirebaseRecyclerOptions<Users> options =
            new FirebaseRecyclerOptions.Builder<Users>()
                    .setQuery(firebaseSearchQuery, snapshot ->
                            new Users(snapshot.child("Name").getValue().toString(),
                            snapshot.child("Image").getValue().toString(),
                                    snapshot.getKey(),
                                    snapshot.child("Profile").getValue().toString()
                            ))
                    .build();

        firebaseRecyclerAdapter = new FirebaseRecyclerAdapter<Users, UsersViewHolder>(
                options
        ) {
            @Override
            protected void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull UsersViewHolder holder, int position, @NonNull Users model) {

                    holder.setDetails(getApplicationContext(), model.getName(), model.getImage());

            }

            @NonNull
            @Override
            public UsersViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
                View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())
                        .inflate(R.layout.search_list_items, parent, false);

                return new UsersViewHolder(view);
            }
        };
        firebaseRecyclerAdapter.startListening();
        mRecyclerView.setAdapter(firebaseRecyclerAdapter);
    }

Is there anything to change in my code to update the view dynamically as I enter the words and to show recycler when the keyboard is up?

A: It is just that, I was having mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true); in my code.
Removing this made it work.

Waste Management (WM) Outpaces Stock Market Gains: What You Should Know
Zacks July 10, 2019
Waste Management (WM) closed at $117.77 in the latest trading session, marking a +0.65% move from the prior day. This move outpaced the S&P 500's daily gain of 0.45%. Elsewhere, the Dow gained 0.29%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq added 0.75%.
Heading into today, shares of the garbage and recycling hauler had gained 3.42% over the past month, outpacing the Business Services sector's gain of 1.04% and lagging the S&P 500's gain of 3.84% in that time.
WM will be looking to display strength as it nears its next earnings release, which is expected to be July 25, 2019. In that report, analysts expect WM to post earnings of $1.08 per share. This would mark year-over-year growth of 6.93%. Meanwhile, our latest consensus estimate is calling for revenue of $3.94 billion, up 5.39% from the prior-year quarter.
WM's full-year Zacks Consensus Estimates are calling for earnings of $4.31 per share and revenue of $15.63 billion. These results would represent year-over-year changes of +2.62% and +4.82%, respectively.
Any recent changes to analyst estimates for WM should also be noted by investors. These revisions help to show the ever-changing nature of near-term business trends. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the company's business outlook.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-team stock moves. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
Ranging from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), the Zacks Rank system has a proven, outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks returning an average of +25% annually since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has moved 0.12% higher. WM currently has a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).
Valuation is also important, so investors should note that WM has a Forward P/E ratio of 27.16 right now. This represents a premium compared to its industry's average Forward P/E of 27.09.
It is also worth noting that WM currently has a PEG ratio of 3.17. This popular metric is similar to the widely-known P/E ratio, with the difference being that the PEG ratio also takes into account the company's expected earnings growth rate. Waste Removal Services stocks are, on average, holding a PEG ratio of 3.01 based on yesterday's closing prices.
The Waste Removal Services industry is part of the Business Services sector. This group has a Zacks Industry Rank of 226, putting it in the bottom 12% of all 250+ industries.

Many people know I have significant ties with Google; I use AdWords personally and for my clients, I use AdSense on my own Web sites (including this one), and I have many friends who are Googlers. I am hardly an impartial observer.
Google is an honorable company, with good people (execs and all) that I believe really do want to make the world a better place. I hope they continue to succeed in every way.

I've been reading a compilation of essays on beauty. When I heard about the book, Why I Don't Hide My Freckles Anymore, published by Deseret Book, I had a feeling I would like it. When I started reading it, I was sure I would like it.
As I laid in bed, reading the first few chapters, I could totally relate to the authors and I felt like I was learning from their experiences and perspectives. As I sat in the foyer of our church while Talia attended an activity, I had to close the book to stop the tears from flowing. There is so much in this world that teaches women to focus on outward appearances when it comes to their own beauty. I am very aware of that fact (especially with young girls to raise) and I thought that because I was aware of it, I was fairly beyond being affected by it. As I read though, I started to realize how much of a hold these incorrect perspectives still have on me.
Reading essay after essay, it was like sitting in a room full of women, discussing the experiences in each of their lives that shaped their perspectives on beauty and their opinions of themselves. And then hearing how each of them came to a point where they realized those perspectives were wrong, and managed to break through walls that they didn't even know were in their way. It was an emotional experience for me; witnessing these walls crashing down. I long to break through some of the walls of my own that remain.
Even more than that though, I want so badly to raise my girls with good perspectives on beauty. I felt like each of these stories helped me to see ways that I can do that. I enjoyed this book very much!

One of the most common questions in any maritime injury case is whether the injured party is a seaman. This question is important because it determines what law will apply to the case. In order to qualify as a Jones Act seaman, the person member of the crew of a vessel as well. He can be someone who is assigned to a fleet of vessels for his employer.
Those who work on tankers, freighters, jack-up rigs, semi-submersibles, towboats, supply boats, barges, and fishing vessels are members of the crew, and are considered seamen. Those on movable drilling rigs are also seamen. Thanks to the Longshore and Harbor Workers'' Compensation Act, Congress limited the application of the term "seaman" in the Jones Act to "a master or member of a crew of any vessel." Longshoremen, pilots, and those working on platforms are usually not classified as seamen, but they may still have other maritime remedies for their injuries.
To be a Jones Act seaman entitles you to sue for negligence as well as breach of warranty of seaworthiness, but does not entitle you to longshoremen's compensation. Often there is a dispute as to seaman status and whether or not the seaman was actually working on a boat when was sustained his injures. It is therefore imperative to allow the maritime lawyer to study the facts surrounding the accident in order to help make the determination of seaman status.
(e) Jones Act coverage (seaman status) depends not on the place where the injury is inflicted, but on the nature of the seaman's service, his status as a member of the vessel, and his relationship as such to the vessel and its operation in navigable waters.

A Palestinian protester during clashes with Israeli security forces north of Ramallah, December 22, 2017
Palestinian Authority/Gaza, December 24, 2017
Israel Foiled 400 Major Terror Attacks in 2017, Shin Bet Chief Says
Israel foiled 400 potential major terror attacks in 2017, Shin Bet chief Nadav Argaman disclosed on Sunday.
Speaking at a Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee meeting, Argaman noted that 13 were planned suicide attacks and eight were planned kidnappings. A further 1,100 potential lone wolf attacks were thwarted.
The Shin Bet chief noted that there were 54 attacks carried out in 2017, a decrease from the 108 carried out in 2016. Argaman qualified the decrease, however, stating that "the calm we are experiencing is misleading, and Hamas is trying with all its might to carry out attacks and undermine the stability of the Palestinian Authority."
Argaman added that the Palestinian front, in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, is quite unstable, "particularly after Trump's declaration on Jerusalem." He added that this reality is more challenging than ever in Gaza.
There have been a number of attacks in Israel in recent weeks. Two weeks ago, a security guard was stabbed and seriously wounded near the entrance of Jerusalem's Central Bus Station. The terrorist, a 24-year-old West Bank resident named Yassin Abu al-Qara, was arrested and brought in for interrogation. Prior to the attack, he posted on Facebook that "for the sake of God and for the sake of Al-Aqsa, we will drain our blood."
In October, 19-year-old Ron Kokia, an Israeli soldier in the Nahal Brigade, was stabbed to death at a bus stop in the southern Israeli city of Arad. Khaled Abu Judeh, a Bedouin Israeli who resides in the Negev, admitted to killing Kokia and said that his original plan was to capture a soldier in attempt to advance negotiations for the release of Palestinian prisoners.
Two weeks ago, the Shin Bet announced that it had foiled a Hamas plot to capture soldiers or settlers in the West Bank over Hanukkah. According to the Shin Bet, three Hamas operatives planned to disguise themselves as settlers and capture an Israeli soldier or settler at a bus stop near the West Bank city of Nablus. The Hamas operatives planned to exchange their captive for Palestinian prisoners.
Tensions have been high on the Gaza border since Israel struck an attack tunnel near Kibbutz Kissufim, killing a number of Islamic Jihad operatives.
Islamic Jihad attempted to carry out a retaliatory attack in Israeli territory. Because of internal struggles and the ongoing reconciliation process between Hamas and Fatah, the organization encountered difficulty in carrying out an attack from inside Gaza and focused its energies on carrying one out within the West Bank instead.
When the plan failed to take hold, however, Islamic Jihad responded by firing mortar shells at an Israeli army post near the border. After Trump's declaration of U.S. recognition as Israel's capital, Hamas allowed Salafist organizations in Gaza to fire rockets at Israel while attempting to coordinate efforts at carrying out a retaliatory attack in Israel from the West Bank, an operation that has not yet succeeded.

8th Combined Arms Army
62nd Army - History
8th Combined Arms Army - Order of Battle
8th Combined Arms Army ( Rostowski Region, Novocherkassk)
The 8th Guards Order of Lenin Army - the guards formation of the Red Army, which participated in the Great Patriotic War, in the post-war period - the Soviet Army (until 1991) and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (1991-1992) as part of the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany and the Western Group of Forces (GSOVG , GSVG, ZGV).
The 8th Guards Army was formed as part of the South-Western Front on May 5, 1943 on the basis of the directive of the Headquarters of the Supreme High Command of April 16, 1943, by converting from the 62nd Army in connection with the assignment of an honorary title - "Guards" for valor and mass heroism in the Battle of Stalingrad and the new military number "8". During the reorganization and understaffing, the army was deployed in the area of ??the cities of Kupyansk, Kharkov region and Svatovo, Luhansk region of the Ukrainian SSR.
After the formation, the army troops defended along the right bank of the Seversky Donets river, north of Slavyansk, participated in the Izyum-Barvenkovsky offensive operation (July 17-27, 1943), and in the Donbass strategic offensive operation (August 13 - September 22, 1943). Developing the offensive in the direction of the Dnieper, army units in cooperation with other troops of the Southwestern Front liberated the city of Zaporozhye (October 14, 1943), crossed the Dnieper south of Dnepropetrovsk and took possession of the bridgehead on its right bank. By this time, the army was in command, 28, 29 and 4 guards rifle corps.
On October 20, 1943, the army was included in the 3rd Ukrainian Front. In November, her troops launched an offensive in the Kryvyi Rih direction, then they defended north of the city of Nikopol. In the winter and spring of 1943, the army participated in the defeat of Nazi troops on Right-Bank Ukraine, advancing in the direction of the main front attack in Nikopol-Krivorozhskaya (January 30 - February 29), Bereznegovato-Snigirevskaya (March 6 - 18) and Odessa operations (March 26) - 14th of April).
On April 10, the 8th Guards Army, in cooperation with formations of the 5th shock, 6 armies liberated Odessa and went to the Dniester estuary. On June 8, 1944, the army was withdrawn to the reserve of the Supreme Command. On June 15, she was included in the combat structure of the 1st Belorussian Front and advanced to the Kovel direction. In July - August 1944, army formations crossed the Western Bug during the Lublin-Brest operation (July 18 – August 2) and participated in the liberation of Lublin (July 24). Then her troops crossed the Vistula (south of Warsaw) and took possession of the Magnushevsky bridgehead. The defense of the bridgehead lasted until mid-January 1945. In the winter of 1945, army troops took part in the Wislo-Oder strategic operation (January 12 – February 3) and liberated ?ód ?????? (January 19).
Army formations crossed the Oder on the move, developing the offensive, on February 23, 1945, in collaboration with the 69th and 1st Guards Tank armies, they stormed the blocked fortress city of Poznan, on March 12, in collaboration with the troops of the 5th shock army and the forces of the Dnieper military flotilla, captured the city, and on March 30 - Kustrin fortress.
The 8th Guards Army completed the battle route by participating in the Berlin strategic operation (April 16 - May 8, 1945). For the valor shown in the battles during the liberation of Poland and Germany, all the rifle and artillery regiments of the rifle divisions of the army were given the honorary names: "Berlin"; Gnieznensky; "Pomeranian"; "Poznan", "Lublin", "Demblinsky". All directorates of the army rifle corps received honorary names - the 4th Guards Rifle Corps became the "Brandenburg", the 28th Guards Rifle Corps became the "Lublin", and the 29th Guards Rifle Corps became the "Lodz".
At the end of the Great Patriotic War, according to the Directive of the Supreme Command of the Supreme High Command of May 29, 1945, the 8th Guards Army is part of the Group of Soviet Occupation Forces in Germany (since 1954 - the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany). The army headquarters was initially located in Jena, from July 1945 until the end of 1945 in Weimar, and from January 1946 until the moment of withdrawal from Germany in the 1990s in the city of Nora.
The consolidated company of the 8th Guards Army took part in the Victory Parade in Moscow on June 24, 1945. The acquisition of the combined company of the army and its preparation for the parade began on May 16, 1945. The consolidated company was prepared by the deputy commander of the 101st Guards Rifle Regiment of the 35th Guards Rifle Division of the Guard, Captain V.I. Varennikov. 6 ranks were preparing for the parade, 10 people each. On the 20th of May, the consolidated company as part of the consolidated regiment 1 of the Belarusian Front arrived in Moscow. On June 20, 1945, the Victory Banner was delivered to Moscow from Berlin by plane Li-2. The guard of honor at the meeting of the Banner was appointed from the consolidated company of the 8th Guards Army, which was led by the captain V.I. Varennikov.
The 20th Guards Motorized Rifle Carpathian - Berlin Red Banner Order of the Suvorov Division (which was part of the army from 1964 to 1983), from May 15 to November 5, 1968 participated in the Danube operation in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. For this period, she was promptly subordinated to the 1st Guards Tank Army. On August 20, 1968, units of the division crossed the border of the German Democratic Republic and Czechoslovakia and, on August 21, took up their area of ??responsibility on the western border of Czechoslovakia near the town of Bor. By order of the Minister of Defense of the USSR of October 17, 1968, gratitude was expressed for the exemplary fulfillment of the command and international duty to assist the working people of Czechoslovakia in the fight against counter-revolutionary elements and the courage and courage shown to all members of the division — participants in the Danube operation.
The 8th Guards Army was one of the largest military associations of the USSR Armed Forces and performed the most complex tasks. The distance from the locations of the army divisions to the border with the FRG was about 5 kilometers. The army controlled the Fulda corridor - a site that was considered a likely adversary, one of the most important. From the FRG side, opposite the positions of the 8th Guards Army, there were 5th and 7th Corps of the US Army from the Central Army Group of NATO. The number of the 8th Guards Army was about 90 thousand people. Intense combat training of the troops was around the clock.
By decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on February 22, 1968, for the great merits shown in the battles to defend the Soviet Motherland, successes in military and political training and in connection with the 50th anniversary of the Soviet Army and Navy, the 8th Guards Army was awarded the Order of Lenin.
After the reunification of Germany in 1990, with the signing on September 12, 1990 by the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany, the German Democratic Republic, the USSR, the United States, France and Great Britain of the "Agreement on the final settlement of Germany", the stay of Soviet troops in the territory of a united Germany - the Federal Republic of Germany began to be defined as temporary , and their systematic conclusion was to be implemented by the end of 1994.
The withdrawal of military units that were part of the army began in 1991 and came at a difficult time in the history of the country - the period of the Emergency Committee and the collapse of the USSR. Most of the units that were part of the army were disbanded.
The 8th Guards Army was withdrawn to Volgograd in 1992, reorganized into the 8th Guards Army Corps, which was then disbanded. In 1994-1996, formations and military units of the corps participated in restoring the constitutional order in the Chechen Republic, and the personnel bravery, courage and heroism. The Guards Banner, the Diploma of the Presidium of the USSR Armed Forces, the Order of Lenin and the Order Book of the Army are in the Central Museum of the Armed Forces in Moscow.
Of the servicemen who served in the 8th Guards Army, two people became twice Heroes of the Soviet Union (Chuikov Vasily Ivanovich and Glazunov Vasily Afanasevich), 183 soldiers of the 8th Guards Army during the Great Patriotic War were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, 25 people became holders of the Order of Glory 3 degrees, thousands were awarded military orders and medals, 6 Heroes of the Soviet Union were forever enlisted in the lists of personnel of army units. The heroes of the Russian Federation were two servicemen (Colonel General V.V. Bulgakov and R.A. Major Shadrin) of the 8th Army Corps for the courage and heroism shown in the hostilities in the North Caucasus.
On March 1, 2017, the 8th combined arms army of the Southern Military District was recreated. The 8 Army include the famous 150th motorized rifle Idritsko-Berlin Order of Kutuzov II degree division famous for arming A. Berest of the assault flag of 150 divisions on the Reichstag dome and 20 separate guards motorized rifle Prikarpatsky-Berlin Red Banner Orders of Suvorov II degree motorized infantry successfully.
The latest educational and material base, equipment and capabilities of the Kuzminsky and Kadamovsky training grounds in the Rostov Region allow military personnel to improve their level of combat training, as well as conduct exercises of various sizes. The army is armed with modern models of military equipment T-72B3, infantry fighting vehicles BMP-3, armored personnel carriers and other military equipment.
Since 2017, the association was commanded by Lieutenant General Sergey Kuzovlev. In December 2018, in order to implement the draft Decree of the President of the Russian Federation "On the Combat Banner of the military unit" of the 8th combined arms army, which distinguished itself in the performance of combat missions, a new standard Combat Banner was presented.
In December 2018, in order to implement the Decree, the President of the Russian Federation of the 8th Guards Combined Arms Army was awarded the Banner of a new sample.

Q: ChromeDriver.exe process is not closed in Selenium Webdriver (when running via TeamCity) I used to run my Selenium tests using Jenkins and all worked good.
Now I changed Jenkins to TeamCity and run my tests on the same machine as before but now it's connected to TeamCity.
The thing is: when a test stops executing the "chromdriver.exe" process is not closed!
It happens only when I run tests using TeamCity, on my local machine all is good and all is good on the machine I use now but if I use Jenkins.
In order to close chromedriver process I use simple Dispose(); method.
Here is a screenshot of what is going on after a test ends its executing: http://prntscr.com/c1zlt7

CVRx® Receives CE Mark Approval of the Barostim neo System™ for the Treatment of Heart Failure - CVRx INC.
Minneapolis – September 29, 2014 – CVRx, Inc., a private medical device company, announced today it received CE Mark approval from the National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI) of the Barostim neo System™ for the treatment of heart failure. The therapy is approved for use in heart failure patients having an ejection fraction ≤ 35% and a New York Heart Failure Classification of III without restriction on QRS duration, concomitant medical device treatment or presence of atrial fibrillation. The system was approved for commercialization in Europe based on patient results from randomized, controlled clinical studies conducted in Europe, Canada and the United States.
"This is a tremendous milestone for CVRx. Barostim neo is the only implantable device which has received CE Mark approval for patients with heart failure in addition to CE Mark approval for patients with resistant hypertension. We are very encouraged with the safety, performance, and health care utilization data related to Barostim neo for both indications. We appreciate the clinical rigor NSAI used for this CE Mark approval. This places CVRx in a very unique position" said Nadim Yared, CEO of CVRx.
"We are impressed by the results we are seeing to date with Barostim Therapy. In our single center study we documented a significant reduction in sympathetic activity which directly correlated into reduced hospitalizations.1 This is the type of standard we are looking for when treating patients with heart failure. We are elated that the therapy is now commercially available" said Professor Edoardo Gronda from IRCC MultiMedica in Milan, Italy.
CVRx completed enrollment of a 140 patient randomized, controlled clinical trial to determine the performance of Barostim Therapy for patients suffering from chronic heart failure with advanced symptoms. Promising results from an earlier study demonstrating clinical improvement and reduced hospitalizations have been presented and published.1 The six month results from the randomized, controlled trial are being prepared for publication.
Barostim neo is a second generation device that uses CVRx-patented technology that is designed to trigger the body's own natural blood flow regulation system to treat patients suffering from chronic heart failure and resistant hypertension. The system works by electrically activating the baroreceptors, the body's natural sensors that regulate cardiovascular function. By activating this afferent pathway, Barostim restores sympatho-vagal balance by reducing sympathetic activity and increasing parasympathetic activity.
In Europe, the prevalence of hypertension is estimated to be between 30-45% of the general population.6 In the United States, hypertension affects 77.9 million people.7 Worldwide, hypertension is estimated to cause one in every eight deaths.7 It is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, morbidity and mortality. Twenty-five percent of people with hypertension cannot adequately control their hypertension with medications and lifestyle modifications.8,9 It is a disease that needs new treatment solutions.
CVRx, Inc. is a privately held company founded in 2001 and headquartered in Minneapolis. The company has developed the second generation Barostim neo, an implantable system designed to treat heart failure and hypertension (high blood pressure). Barostim neo has received CE Marking for the treatment of heart failure in addition to CE Marking for hypertension in Europe. It is under clinical evaluation for the treatment of heart failure and hypertension in the United States.
CAUTION: Barostim neo™ is an investigational device and is limited by United States law to investigational use. Exclusively for Clinical Investigations for the treatment of heart failure and resistant hypertension in Canada.

A NOTORIOUS stretch of road claimed another life on Tuesday, when a lorry driver died in Little Abington.
The accident happened at about 8.45am, when a road-cleaning lorry overturned after apparently hitting a traffic island on the A1307.
A second vehicle swerved to avoid the accident and collided with a garden fence by the road.
Two ambulances attended the scene, as well as a fire crew from Linton and a fire crew and a rescue vehicle from Cambridge.
A spokesman for Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "The crews used electric Holmatro cutting equipment to cut open the doors and remove the driver, who was trapped in the lorry."
Medical crews pronounced the driver of the lorry dead at the scene. The woman driver of the car suffered shock, but was otherwise unhurt.
The fence the woman collided with belonged to John Brock, who said he was deeply upset that there had been a fatal accident outside his house.
He said: "I'm absolutely devastated that there has been another accident, this time with very serious consequences. This has happened four or five times, where vehicles have hit the traffic island, and to learn that the driver in this morning's accident has died is really very upsetting.
"I heard the bang and went outside and there it was. A street-cleaner lorry was laying on its side, with various people surrounding it trying to get the windscreen out to rescue the driver.
"A car had swerved into our fence to avoid the lorry. Then the emergency services arrived and I went back into the house, as it was obviously the scene of a very serious accident."
In February a woman from Haverhill was lucky to escape with her life after the car she was driving was pinned against a tree by a lorry that had hit the same traffic island. And one month ago, just a few miles down the A1307 at Horseheath, 16-year-old Alice Westland was killed while trying to cross the road.
Mr Brock said: "We all feel a strong sense of frustration. Obviously something has to be done to make this road safer but who do we go to?
"Who do we contact? Trying to get the safety of this road improved is like banging your head against a brick wall."
After the accident in February where a woman was hospitalised following a collision at the same location, an on-site meeting took place between residents, councillors and engineers to discuss ways to improve the road's safety.
Additional signs on the traffic island, warning signs on the approach and better signage on the road were all discussed as ways to move forward, and Cambridgeshire County Council installed a blue-and-white arrow sign on a lamppost to make the traffic island more visible.
However, after Tuesday's fatal crash - the seventh fatality on the A1307 in two years - there are likely to be strong calls for more action.
