Penrite leads the charge to get the nation's flags flying high over Mount Panorama
Australia's Penrite Oil Company, 100 percent Australian Owned and manufactured since 1926, is leading a campaign to have Australian flags erected at the top of Mount Panorama, home of the world-famous Bathurst 1000, Bathurst 12 Hour and 6 Hour endurance racing events.
Given the unique history of this incredible motor racing circuit and public road tourist attraction, the team of proud Australians at Penrite are hoping to generate strong public interest in having Australian flags ever present at this globally iconic location.
Penrite has made several approaches to the Bathurst Regional Council seeking to assist in the construction of a flagpole above the synonymous "Mount Panorama" side of mountain signage. These approaches have been refused for reasons relating to resources, construction and maintenance.
National flags are proudly flown at major international motor racing events including NASCAR, IndyCar, Formula One and Moto GP all over the world. Given the spirit of co-operation that can be found in motorsport through the team owners, their related businesses, sponsors and the sport's engineering and fabrication contacts, along with motorsports club members and the assistance of volunteers to support the Bathurst Regional Council, it is Penrite Australia's belief that these obstacles can be overcome.
Toby Dymond, Managing Director of the Penrite Oil Company which has been Australian family owned and operated for over 90 years, strongly believes that symbolism of our national pride would be a great addition to the home of several of the world's greatest endurance-based motor races. "I am sure that I am not alone in wanting our national flag or the traditional custodian's flag to fly proudly at the top of Mount Panorama, not just during the world-famous motor racing events, but all year round."
"When I visit sporting events around the world, national flags are always a part of each event, promoting national pride. It makes the whole country feel proud of these major international events and I cannot understand why we don't have our national flags flying proudly at this iconic venue," said Dymond.
The Bathurst 1000, Bathurst 12 Hour and the Bathurst 6 Hour events are renowned worldwide. Drivers and teams from all over the world rate the Mount Panorama circuit up there with the handful of the world's greatest motor racing venues and events. Dymond believes it is about time that Australians displayed how proud we are of this incredible racing circuit and the famed events that it stages, along with the champions that it has created.
In addition to the Australian national flag, in respect of the area's traditional custodians, the flagpole at the top Mount Panorama should also include a symbol of significance, whether that takes the form of a second flag or another fitting acknowledgment.
The team at Australia's Penrite Oil Company hopes that the media, local and federal members of Parliament and motorsports fans nationwide can lend their support to this campaign, by adding their powerful voices to help send a clear message that our country's most famous motor racing circuit needs an Australian flag or flags proudly flying over it.
"I truly believe that this is something that we can make happen with the support of the motor racing fraternity of teams, drivers and fans along with the wider community. We need to project the message that Mount Panorama is an important part of Australia's incredible sporting history and what better way to symbolise that than this," added Dymond.
"Where there is a will, there is a way to overcome any objection and it just requires some entrepreneurship, innovation and passion for our country to get it done. We can do it," he concluded.
Supporters of the campaign should add their name to Penrite's change.org petition at http://chng.it/DGxnwwr9 and by contacting the Bathurst Regional Council at council@bathurst.nsw.gov.au.

Have you ever participated in a team building exercise that encourages trust?
Fall backwards and people will catch you.
Put on a blindfold and have someone guide you along a path?
When you're falling backwards, you have to trust that the people in charge of catching you will have the strength and steady footing to hold you up without collapsing.
Will they be able to bear the added weight?
Will they lead you safely around obstacles?
It's easy to trust when you're young.
We trust daddy is gonna catch us when we jump into his arms.
As we get older, trust becomes more difficult.
We confide in a friend and they share your secret with someone else.
We rely on a promise that doesn't come through.
We pour our heart into a relationship that comes to an end.
I have been the receiver AND giver of mistrust.
I've had my heart hurt and have been the one to hurt others.
What do they get from this?
That's because people are fallible.
We are navigating through our own experiences, with our own pain, and carrying past hurts with us.
What once came "without question" is now filled with doubt, hesitation, and holding back from truly sharing.
How much would you be willing to TRUST if you knew UP FRONT that it was safe?
That the weight of your burden would not make them collapse?
Not only will they catch you, but will hold you steady and support you fully.
That the direction they lead you is not only the right one, but that you're on solid footing.
That is the Trust that ONLY God can give.
I talked about God's unfailing love a few weeks ago.
It is deeper, stronger, and will never be removed from those He loves.
Remember, we can have Hope in Him. Confidence that He is with us and that He hears us.
Knowing that He loves us with unfailing love, and we have hope in His plans for us, we can trust Him with our hearts, burdens, and our sorrows.
Freesia is the symbol of trust.
It is a delicate flower that requires much care. Just like our hearts.
God wants us to look to Him for trust.
He will take care of you, never let you go, won't lead you astray or fail to catch you.
How do you trust God?
Trust Him with something small.
Not because you want him to "PROVE" Himself ( he isn't magic), but to soften our hearts to trust itself.
Do you struggle with trust?

Rams and Seahawks still have something to fight for after Seattle's last-second victory
The Rams and Seahawks still have something to fight for after Seattle's last-second victory Sunday kept L.A. from clinching the NFC West.
(John Cordes / Associated Press)
By Gary KleinStaff Writer
The Rams still have work to do to win their division.
The Seattle Seahawks' last-second, 30-27 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday prevented the idle Rams from clinching the NFC West title.
Rams coach Sean McVay had said it would be "pretty cool" if they won the division during their bye week, and joked he "wouldn't be upset" if his team returned to work Monday with the title in hand. But the 10-1 Rams will have to wait at least until next Sunday for a chance to win consecutive division titles for the first time since 1979.
If the Rams defeat the Detroit Lions at Ford Field, or the Seahawks (6-5) lose to the San Francisco 49ers, the Rams will clinch the NFC West.
They play the Lions and then have remaining games against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field, at home against the Philadelphia Eagles, on the road against the Arizona Cardinals, and at home against the 49ers.
The New Orleans Saints, who defeated the Rams, 45-35, also are 10-1 and in the hunt for top seed in the NFC. The Saints play on the road against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night, and have games at Tampa Bay and at Carolina before finishing the season at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Panthers.
Rams running back Todd Gurley suffered an ankle injury last week, but McVay said he was not expected to miss any time. Cornerback Aqib Talib, who has been on injured reserve since suffering an ankle injury in Week 3, has been aiming to return for the game against the Lions.
The Rams will practice Monday, take Tuesday off, and then resume preparations for the Lions.

A large mural of quarterback Jared Goff was among those painted Friday at Belvedere Elementary School in East Los Angeles, where more than 150 members of the Rams organization installed a new playground structure and helped beautify the campus during its annual community improvement project.


My 5 year old, 1500+ round P380 started having light strikes so I changed out the recoil springs, but no joy, still had some light strikes. Jay & Bob at Kahr got my "Little Buddy" shipped back to the mother ship, got it fixed and back to me in the nick of time for a planned cross country road trip. I tried Golden Sabre (factory recommended) as SD ammo and it works flawlessly, very happy with the performance and their attention to detail. I had real concerns about making the trip without my carry piece, but they came through and made things happen. Great job guys!
Glad they got it running in a timely manner. I'm curious, what did kahr do to fix it.
I don't have the repair order available, but I think it was a new striker & spring. Just happy it's back to being reliable for EDC.
Be smart and put in a Lakeline striker. You probably had a broken striker and the replacement they put in no different than the one that broke. It s a common failure and they have not changed the part. No one on here has reported a failure with the lakeline.

After extensive review and consideration, the GoAbroad Team is pleased to share with you the winners and finalists of the 2018 GoAbroad Innovation Awards!
The GoAbroad Innovation Awards Academy voted to determine the winner for each of these awards (excluding People's Choice & Student Video). The winners were announced at the GoAbroad Reception on May 31, 2018 during the NAFSA Annual Conference in Philadelphia, PA.
Here are our 2018 winners:
Innovation in Diversity
CISabroad: Diversity & Inclusion in Marketing Audit Tool
"The overwhelming majority of Generation Z (those who are currently in college) value a commitment to diversity, inclusion, and social justice – no matter their own personal identities. They are also savvier than any other generation when it comes to sensing authenticity in advertising. When attempting to recruit traditionally underrepresented groups, international educators must first look at their marketing materials. Are we highlighting authentic diversity within our materials or simply using stock photos to check the "diversity box"?
CISabroad recently created the Diversity Audit Tool, a resource to assist an organization or institution with measuring diversity in outreach materials in order to connect with students from underrepresented groups, such as low socioeconomic status, first generation, ethnic background, religious background, LGBTQIA+ identities, and people with different physical abilities. The diversity audit tool walks professionals through how to conduct the audit, such as reviewing outreach materials such as the website, social media channels, print materials, as well as email messaging. The tool encourages educators to look through their materials and ask: Is there visible diversity among photos, videos, and student features? Are the materials authentic and representative of your students? Do marketing materials highlight scholarships and resources for underrepresented students? Are proper social media channels being used to reach this generation?
The last step of the audit includes suggestions on how to improve materials based on the findings. Potential post-audit action items could include asking faculty or site directors to capture images of diverse students groups and activities or highlighting resources or scholarships that are available to underrepresented student groups. Auditing marketing materials helps to demonstrate commitment to diversity and inclusion within all aspects of an organization, and students from underrepresented groups may be more likely to seek out international education opportunities if they feel they are represented in the marketing materials."

IES Abroad: IES Abroad Film Festival Event
"Despite the evening's gloomy weather, November 1, 2017, was a brilliant and blazing showcase of student talent and storytelling ability as we hosted our first-ever Study Abroad Film Festival event!
Since 2014, our Film Festival has been an online opportunity for students to share their stories from abroad through film. After hosting the Festival online for three years, we approached our 2017 Festival feeling it was time to do something bold.
For seven months, we worked diligently with our Advancement Department to cultivate the Film Festival event. We were star struck (literally) to have actor Kate Flannery (Meredith from NBC's The Office) as our celebrity host of the evening, and held the event at the cutting-edge Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. We flew in four IES Abroad student filmmaker finalists to share their films on the big screen, and launched a huge-scale marketing and PR campaign to showcase the films, the filmmakers, and the event. A few of our successes were:
100+ million impressions across all media coverage
300+ total media placements
7 Chicago broadcast interviews (out of 9 networks!) – see our media reel: https://youtu.be/B9aih1aYY_0
An 88% rate of attendance – the highest attendance rate for any alumni event
188 guests – bringing together IES Abroad stakeholders & key audiences
15 total minutes of TV & radio combined airtime across 13 broadcast spots post-event
Reach of 200,000+ on social media
New donor prospects introduced to IES Abroad Scholarship Fund
Chicago-area Vienna Class of 1971-72 alumni made the Film Fest their reunion
Our Film Festival event underscored the remarkable power of study abroad and the global network it creates using film. It was a reminder to us—and those who attended or participated—of how study abroad truly can change the world—one student, and one story, at a time."
Innovative New Program – Study Abroad
Warren Wilson College: Appalachia to Cuba: Intercultural Approaches to Social Welfare and Education
In a field where a vast majority of students will choose to study abroad among a fairly narrow scope of locations and topics, we seek inspiration from programs that travel to less common destinations, focus on less often-tackled subjects, are timely in the current landscape, and yield increased intercultural understanding. The Warren Wilson College Cuba program that ran in January 2017 was an exemplary model of a program that accomplished these goals. Entitled "Appalachia to Cuba: Intercultural Approaches to Social Welfare and Education," the course engaged students to compare and contrast interdependent social, environmental, political, economic, and cultural issues in Appalachia and Cuba, from both historical and contemporary perspectives.
The program was co-led by the head of Warren Wilson's Social Work department, Dr. Lucy Lawrence, and the Director of International Programs, Anna Welton. During the required semester-long course on Warren Wilson's campus in Asheville prior to the program, students engaged in a field-based study of Southern Appalachia in order to understand the historical and contemporary approaches to addressing poverty and access to education in the region. The program then commenced with travel to Cuba, where foci of the field-based course included intercultural comparisons of social welfare service delivery and educational structures and practices that advance community self-sufficiency while promoting active citizen participation.
Warren Wilson's community partner in Cuba, the Autonomous University of Social Movements, provided brilliant support in placing students with homestay families in an Afro-Cuban neighborhood outside of Havana and running immersive programming to engage the group with local students and community members. The group visited seven different schools, several community medical clinics, community organizations, and students engaged in interviews with local educators and activists to produce portfolio projects in which they encapsulated their intercultural learning, which they shared in the Asheville community upon their return to campus.
Innovative New Program – Intern Abroad
Beyond Sports: South Africa 'Sport for Development' Internship
"Student-athletes often miss out on international education opportunities due to the demanding schedule of their sport. Student-Athletes Abroad provides study abroad programs and internships tailored to student-athletes by combining study, athletics, adventure and service-learning.
In 2017 Student-Athletes Abroad successfully launched a 25-student internship program to Cape Town, South Africa focusing on Sport for Development. This experience allows students to learn about a variety of innovative Sport for Development nonprofit organizations in South Africa while engaging more deeply with a single organization. Time is split between daily operation assistance on site and utilizing our Innovation Lab to complete a project that will support the organization long after the students leave Cape Town.
We pride ourselves on our robust network of Sport for Development organizations and the positive impact they have on their community. Some organizations we partner with include: Great Commission United, Peace Players International, Grass Roots Soccer, BoxGirls South Africa, Healthnutz, and Coolplay Trust. These NGOs are using sports to combat serious issues facing South African youth like HIV/AIDS, crime, gangs, discrimination, and disadvantages for women.
Outside of internship duties, students take weekend cultural excursions touring Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years, hiking Table Mountain, one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature, exploring Castle of Good Hope and the District Six Museum, and a guided wildlife safari. What student-athletes in particular find valuable on a program abroad is access to the Sports Science Institute of South Africa, a high-end gym facility to stay in shape and well-prepared for season.
Not only is this internship making a tangible difference in the lives of local South African youth, it is allowing for personal growth to student-athletes who wouldn't otherwise have the chance to experience the vibrant culture of Cape Town."
Innovative New Program – Volunteer Abroad
Team4Tech: Autodesk Build Change Program in Nepal, June 2017
"Team4Tech partners with technology companies to provide pro bono services to nonprofits with a proven track record serving their communities. Team4Tech's programs provide technology professionals with immersive, short-term service learning projects that leverage their technology skills to benefit underserved communities, while also supporting corporate social responsibility goals. Team4Tech programs benefit three distinct audiences: beneficiaries gain access to improved teaching and learning through technology, volunteers gain valuable leadership skills through experiential learning, and companies gain more engaged employees to lead customer-driven innovation.
In June 2017, Team4Tech partnered with Autodesk and Build Change, a nonprofit that designs disaster-resistant houses and schools in emerging nations and trains builders, homeowners, and government officials to build them. The program goal was to apply Autodesk employee's expert knowledge of engineering and design technology to improve the retrofit process so that Build Change could scale their efforts to reach thousands of homes affected by Nepal's recent catastrophic earthquake. With the help of the Autodesk volunteers, Build Change was able to increase their retrofit survey and modeling process from 2-3 weeks, to 2-3 hours. Build Change has trained 14,000 masons, engineers, and technical staff on the new technology. This has dramatically improved Build Change's impact, and they have retrofitted 1,000 homes with the future potential of reaching 50,000 additional homes in the region. Build Change has applied the same innovation to similar programs in Colombia and Haiti. Thanks to the Team4Tech program, thousands of homes worldwide will benefit from Build Change's work.
As part of the program, volunteers complete a human-centered design curriculum and apply these principles to their project goals. Volunteers also receive leadership development training in communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. Volunteers have said about this program, "This project helped me realign my purpose in life, professionally and personally," and "I'm going to look more closely at opportunities for advancement and growth at Autodesk. I've gained a lot of confidence from this project." Team4Tech programs are designed to motivate, inspire, and challenge volunteers through experiential learning in an unfamiliar environment."

Cultural Vistas: Free Online Therapy Services for Student Participants
"Cultural Vistas began a new partnership in September 2017 with Talkspace, a global online therapy and counseling platform, to provide participants in its international exchange programs with free, on-demand access to online counseling services as they navigate life away from home.
The service offers access to over 1,500 licensed therapists who can help with stress, anxiety, depression, and other emotional needs. Talkspace users can engage in counseling with an individual licensed therapist through unlimited text, audio, and video messages in private, secure chat rooms. Talkspace is now available as part of the standard health insurance plan offered for Cultural Vistas participants.
Our nonprofit is the first international exchange organization to implement an online therapy offering of this kind. "
Innovation in Sustainability
Broadreach: Plastic-Free Day
"Broadreach was looking for a way to encourage our students to foster the principles of environmental stewardship they learn on Broadreach programs within their own communities at home, so we developed a NEW international holiday on Feb. 21 to raise awareness about single-use plastics and their impact on the environment. Surprisingly, a designated 'Plastic-Free Day' did not exist, so we created one, and asked people to pledge to participate so we could track the impact of the initiative. Thousands of people across the globe in 42 different countries participated, the day was covered in several national news outlets, and most importantly, several thousands of pieces of plastic were removed from circulation.
On Feb. 21, there were sustainability workshops, trash clean ups, restaurants removing plastics from the shelves, live stream videos and information sessions around the world. We were able to motivate all this participation after only creating the day a month before, and now Feb.21 is now an internationally recognized day that will only grow and make a larger environmental impact each year. Our hope is that one day of conscious, plastic-free decisions can lead to a lifetime of smarter and more sustainable choices about the things we buy and the waste we generate."
Innovation in Philanthropy
Pangea Educational Development: Pangea Publishing
"Pangea Publishing is a project that creates and makes reading materials accessible to families to improve literacy starting from the home. The project works in partnership with the Ugandan Ministry of Education and the Ugandan National Library Service to empower public sector actors sustainably countrywide. The project has two fundamental components: Book Creation and Mobile Libraries.
There are few children's books produced in local languages in Uganda. However, Uganda has a rich oral storytelling tradition – each language with its own unique set of stories told from generation to generation. Pangea Publishing is recording, dictating, and illustrating these folklore stories and producing guided readers in full-color dual language (vernacular and national) books. Each story recorded, regardless of published or not, is shared with national archives to preserve Uganda's rapidly changing languages and cultures.
Mobile Libraries are an innovative distribution model to increase access to a variety of texts, to stimulate interest and exposure to multiple levels of reading while providing a cost savings alternative to purchasing books for use in the home. Mobile Libraries will bring literature directly to family homes on a low-cost "Netflix" subscription model. Mobile Libraries will provide families with the monthly recommended number of books for the size of each family. Each month, the Mobile Library will return to retrieve and deliver new books to each family.
Pangea Publishing, as well as our community centers and hello hubs, builds on PED's already sustainable in-school model, by addressing out-of-school factors. The goal is to nurture a culture of reading in our communities by developing a print-rich environment around culturally relevant stories. There is no silver bullet to the education crisis. PED believes it is about creating sustainable and scalable solutions based on best practices."
Innovation in Alumni Engagement
Lessons From Abroad: Lessons From Abroad Conferences (Nationwide)
"Lessons From Abroad delivers re-entry resources to study abroad returnees across the country through its innovative conference model, a practice that set the bar for the field at a time when re-entry was usually not considered as an important part of the education abroad process. Ten years later, LFA has run over 80 conferences in more than 20 regions across the country, serving about 3500 students. New regions sign on to start their own LFA conferences each year often spearheaded by professionals who have been involved in putting on LFA conferences and later move elsewhere, showing the strength of the community. It is a testament to the passion and dedication of its community that all LFA conferences and operations as a registered nonprofit are completely volunteer-run. There have even been several non-LFA-affiliated returnee conferences that have popped up (such as the North Carolina Returnee Conference and the EVOLVE Returnee Conference in Albany), showing how LFA has set the bar for re-entry programming models.
LFA conferences deliver content aimed at providing the following learning outcomes for students:
Explore various perspectives on the meaning of your study abroad experience.
Reflect on and learn how to convey your international skills in a job interview.
Discover how you can teach, work, volunteer, travel, or study abroad after graduation.
Stay connected to and share your study abroad experience in a purposeful manner.
Over the years, many innovative sessions have been developed for various conferences that are later shared with the community, including a diversity & inclusion session that explores identity for returnees, how to incorporate study abroad into job interviews and applications, internationally-focused careers and fellowship opportunities, and many more. Students have provided testimonials over the years saying how LFA helped them to solidify the learning they had while abroad and take their abroad experience to the next step. It is one thing to go abroad; it is another to learn from that experience and carry that learning forward into the future, whatever it may hold. LFA's programming helps students do exactly that."

The arts and artists of Maine.
Twenty-eight artists have been selected from 900 entries for the Portland Museum 2013 Biennial. The exhibition is the PMA's eighth consecutive biennial and is curated by Jessica May, Curator of Contemporary and Modern Art; it will be on view at the PMA October 3, 2013 through January 5, 2014.
The 2013 PMA Biennial is following a slightly different process than in the past because the selection process was conducted internally, rather than by a panel of independent jurors. The goal of the exhibition is to explore one very strong, deep thread of contemporary practice that has relevance both regionally and nationally. Many of the artists in the 2013 PMA Biennial live in Maine for all or part of the year, but for others, the state has been an important part of their biography or artistic practice.
The 2013 Portland Museum of Art Biennial: Piece Work will be accompanied by a solo exhibition in the PMA's Circa series, Amy Stacey Curtis: 9 walks. For this exhibition, the museum will show three existing video works from Curtis's oeuvre along with six new works, all using the theme of a walk near the artist's home.


Who knew?! According to Kentucky legislators, we're all screwed!
As you (Energy & Environment Cabinet official) sit there in your chair with your data, we sit up here in our with our data and our constituents and stuff behind us. I don't want to get into the debate about climate change, but I will simply point out that I think in academia we all agree that the temperature on Mars is exactly as it is here. Nobody will dispute that. Yet there are no coal mines on Mars. There are no factories on Mars that I'm aware of.
Let's take a few moments and let that sink in. The temperature on Mars is the same as Earth. The average temperature on Mars is -80. I'm no scientist but if the temperature routinely got that low here, I would have died long ago.
His point is that humans play no part in the global temperatures on Earth. How do we know this? Well, you see, since Earth and Mars have the same temperature and there are no factories or coal mines on Mars, then the logical conclusion is that those things play no part in global temperatures.
Unfortunately, since the Kentucky legislator is wrong about the temperatures, his argument is pointless. And idiotic. Just remember folks, these are the people making laws. Scary thought, indeed.

Drugi Okres Przejściowy – okres w historii starożytnego Egiptu pomiędzy Średnim Państwem a Nowym Państwem, który charakteryzował się ogólną destabilizacją polityczną państwa i rozbiciem dzielnicowym. Nastąpił zmierzch kulturalny. Egipt utracił Nubię, Synaj i Palestynę.

Chronologia
Historycy nie są zgodni co do dokładnych dat początku i końca tego okresu. Marek Marciniak jako ramy chronologiczne tego okresu podaje lata 1786–1567 p.n.e., zaś Marek Stępień podaje daty 1760–1565 p.n.e.. Okres ten rozpoczyna panowanie dynastii XIII, a kończy się wraz z końcem panowania dynastii XVII.
Drugi Okres Przejściowy można podzielić na dwa etapy (pod względem politycznym):
 Czasy XIII i XIV dynastii – 1786–1603 p.n.e. lub 1760–1630 p.n.e., okres ten charakteryzował się próbami kontynuacji Średniego Państwa, prawdopodobnie pierwsi władcy XIII dynastii byli krewnymi władców XII dynastii. Pierwsi władcy XIII dynastii panowali nad całym Egiptem, a nawet kontrolowali obszar Syropalestyny i Nubii między 1. i 2. kataraktą. Aparat państwowy nadal działał bardzo sprawnie. Dopiero pod koniec panowania XIII dynastii wezyrowie przejęli kontrolę nad nomami, co prowadziło do rozpadu państwa. W okresie XIV dynastii doszło do wojny pomiędzy wezyrami.
 Czasy XV i XVI dynastii – 1674–1567 p.n.e. lub 1630–1540 p.n.e. – okres panowania Hyksosów. Stworzyli oni własne państwo ze stolicą w Awaris (dzisiejsze Tell el-Daba), obejmujące całą deltę. Zdaniem M. Stępnia wraz z objęciem rządów przez Hyksosów z XV dynastii, w 1630 r. p.n.e. nad Dolnym Egiptem rządy sprawowała lokalna (egipska) XVII dynastia. Odmiennego zdania jest M. Marciniak, który uważa, że XVII dynastia przejęła władzę dopiero w roku 1650 p.n.e., wykorzystując osłabienie Hyksosów. Manethon podaje, że XV dynastię stanowiło tylko 6 władców, łącznie z najbardziej znanym władcą tej dynastii 'A'popi. Papirus z Turynu wymienia 9 władców XVI dynastii (ale nie podaje ich imion), zaś J. von Beckerath uważa, że XVI dynastia faktycznie była nie tyle dynastią, co wasalami Hyksosów. Hyksosi zostali ostatecznie pokonani i wyparci ze Środkowego Egiptu przez Kamesa ostatniego władcę XVII dynastii, który pokonał Hyksosów w bitwie pod Hermopolis. Brat Kamesa, i jego następca Jahmes, ostatecznie usunął Hyksosow z Egiptu został założycielem XVIII dynastii i pierwszym władcą Nowego Państwa.

Kontrowersje
Historycy nie są zgodni co do ram czasowych tego okresu, co do czasu i okoliczności przejęcia władzy przez XVII dynastię. Poważne wątpliwości dotyczą także samej XIV dynastii. M. Marciniak zauważa, że "Grupa uczonych przypuszcza, że XIV dynastia w ogóle nie istniała i że zaliczanych do niej panujących można identyfikować z władcami XIII dynastii".

Władcy XVII dynastii

Singraven is a country estate in the Noordoost Twente area. Its idyllic grounds, with the River Dinkel winding through, include many historic buildings such as the stately home and a centuries-old water mill with three wheels.
Ramble (or cycle) along the winding river through the Singraven Estate's beautiful grounds.
Visit the 17th-century stately home, the mediaeval water mill and other historic buildings.
See the impressive collection of art and antiques acquired by Singraven's last owner.
The Singraven country estate is first recorded in 1381 as an agrarian farmstead owned and leased by the Bishop of Utrecht. Over the centuries, Singraven changed ownership several times. The first country house was built in 1415. The current stately home, a grand neoclassical affair, was built in the second half of the 17th century by the aristocratic Sloet family.
The estate's last private owner, Willem Frederik Jan Laan, was an avid collector of art and antiques. His collection is now exhibited in the house and can be seen on guided tours. Visitors can also walk or cycle through the estate's beautiful grounds and visit the historic water mill, the last water-powered saw mill in the Netherlands.
Singraven's grounds are varied, including woods, avenues, fields and the ever-present River Dinkel winding its way through the estate. The landscaped park surrounding the country house and the arboretum, designed by renowned Dutch landscape architect Leonard Springer, can be visited during the opening times of the farm shop. These grounds are part of a grand Dutch tradition: the castle and country house gardens, dotted all over Holland, are often as beautiful as the historic country houses and castles they accompany.
The house can be visited on guided tours only. The tours take place at fixed times from April through October, Tuesday to Thursday, 11:00 and 14:00; July and August also tours on Saturdays at 14:00. Check the website for dates and times outside these periods.
The park and arboretum: April through October, Tuesday to Saturday, 10:30-17:00, Sunday, 12:00-17:00; November through March, Thursday and Saturday, 10:30-17:00, Sunday, 12:00-17:00. Different opening times apply for other buildings and parts of the estate.

Beloved Volkswagen Beetle 'Herbie' to cross the block at Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach auction
'Herbie' VW Beetle up for auction in Palm Beach
BY Brian Leon
Wednesday, April 8, 2015, 4:36 PM
What is now one of the most iconic movie cars of all time, this driving version 'Herbie' the Love Bug is now up for auction at Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach.
(Barrett-Jackson)
Now you can own one of the most iconic and lovable movie cars of all time, as 'Herbie' from 'The Love Bug' series is set to go up for auction at Barrett-Jackson's Palm Beach event on April 17-19.
The 1963 Volkswagen Beetle rose to fame in the 1969 film, leading to three sequels all named for the car. In the movie, Herbie is a spunky, race ready Beetle with a personality of his own, able to drive by himself, throw tantrums, and even play pranks on unsuspecting victims.

This particular model is known as the 'oil squirter,' with an oil pump in the passenger footwell that sprayed oil on a policeman's shoes in 'Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo.'
This particular car, Lot #394 at the show, is one of the very few driving versions of the car, as many were made without engines for different scenes. Known to Disney as '5916,' loyal Herbie fans know this car better as the 'oil squirter,' famous for squirting oil on a police officer's foot from the passenger side wheel well in the 1977 film 'Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo.'
Since its use in the film, 5916 has passed through many different hands, all loving and appreciative of this important piece of movie history. Under the ownership of Arthur Porter after its final use in 1980's 'Herbie Goes Bananas,' it was restored to Monte Carlo specification, and raced in vintage racing series.
The car has been restored to 'Monte Carlo' spec, even down to the interior, to give the best vintage racing vibe.

"The Walt Disney studio did a phenomenal job of taking an unlikely car and turning it into a Hollywood film star," said Craig Jackson, Chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. "I love that our bidders can get as excited about a Volkswagen Beetle, as they can an original Shelby GT350."
Powered by a 1835-cc flat-four-cylinder with dual Kadron Solex carburetors, Herbie is quick for a Beetle, but it's certainly not a barn burner compared to the vintage race cars it trounced in the movie series. Maybe it's true that all a car needs to be the fastest is a little personality! That, and a big-time movie budget.

No increase in the precept demand – at its meeting on the 8 February 2021 the Town Council authorised a formal precept demand to Kirklees Council for £137,982 for 2021/22 which means there is no increase in the precept demand from the previous year.
Town Mayor, Councillor Kate Buchanan said: 'The Town Council is pleased to announce that we have been able to keep the precept demand for 21/22 the same as the previous year – despite continuing funding to tackle the issues that residents identified as part of the Ask Meltham project. The Town Council's precept continues to be significantly less than the national average and is a tiny proportion of residents' total council tax bill, with the majority of council tax going to Kirklees Council, the Police and Crime Commissioner and the fire and rescue authorities. At a total cost of less than a pound a week for an average property, our services continue to represent value for money'.
Raising money through the precept is necessary for the following reasons:
Cuts to grant funding
Unfortunately Kirklees Council has significantly reduced the grant it provides to the Town Council from over £7,000 to nothing at all for the 20/21 financial year and rising to a few hundred pounds in 21/22. The Town Council needs to replace this funding in order to protect the services it provides.
Protecting Meltham Services
As Kirklees Council has cut services, the Town Council has and is stepping in to protect and provide for the residents of Meltham – e.g. contributing significantly to the provision of library services in Meltham and arranging for footpaths and public spaces to be cut back of vegetation and cleared of litter.
Improving our area
The Council listened to what residents wanted to happen in Meltham when they undertook the recent Ask Meltham project and monies raised through the precept will go on putting in place actions to address the priorities that residents highlighted. The Council continues to set aside monies for improvements to the Town Centre to ensure Meltham is an attractive and safe place to live, work and visit. We continue to make significant grants to community groups in Meltham and are underway with an improvement scheme to further enhance Robert Ashton Memorial Park over the coming years.
The precept demand for 21/22 means that the precept of a Band D property will increase by 43 pence per year.
The Town Mayor, Councillor Kate Buchanan continues: 'The Town Council receives no grant assistance from central government, and therefore must be financially self-supporting. In addition to the Council Tax precept the Town Council's only other sources of income is a small amount from allotment rentals and investment income'.
Meltham Town Council's service provision includes allotments, litter picking and environmental improvements, children's play areas, park facilities and maintenance, playing fields and gardens, public toilets, and sports facilities. It subsidises the library to protect this provision in Meltham and makes substantial grants to Meltham organisations to support community led activities.
No increase in the precept demand – at its meeting on the 8 February 2021 the Town Council authorised a formal precept demand to Kirklees Council for £137,982 for 2021/22 which means there is no increase in the precept demand from the previous year. 11th February 2021

UEFA Champions League 2015-2016: Lewandowski scores twice in group stage match against Dinamo Zagreb
A stoppage time goal by Wayne Rooney lifted Manchester United to a 3-2 win over AC Milan at Old Trafford in Manchester. United have never defeated Milan over two legs, having lost twice to them in semi-finals, and once in the round of sixteen previously. With injuries mounting for United, they were forced to play an extremely altered back line, with John O'Shea and Gabriel Heinze in the centre of defense. Milan had a boost before the match as keeper Nelson Dida proved fit enough to play. United opted for only one striker in Wayne Rooney, while Milan did the same fielding Alberto Gilardino. The game also featured two of the best young midfielders in the world currently, with Cristiano Ronaldo for United and Kaka for AC Milan.
Manchester had a dream start to the match when Ronaldo opened the scoring after only five minutes. Dida was caught out of net as Ronaldo headed towards goal, and after slapping twice at the ball, it eventually found its way into the net. United, and Ronaldo in particular, continued to threaten the Milan goal, but the next chance fell to Michael Carrick whos stinging shot was saved well by Dida. Milan then equalized through a high qualty goal from Kaka. Kaka as he received a through ball from Seedorf, and the Brazilian sprinted past the defense and slid the ball past Van Der Sar. United continued to threaten, but nothing came of chances for both Giggs and Rooney. A curling shot by Ronaldo almost fooled Dida, but he managed to palm it away. Kaka then had a solo effort to lift Milan into the lead, as he managed to beat out three defenders, two of which collided with each other, and curl the ball past Van Der Sar. Milan continued to pressure and Kaka nearly had a hat-trick off a 30-yard drive, but Van Der Sar saved well.
United started brightly in the second half, clearly not wanting a home loss in the Champions League, and Carrick should have done better as he volleyed wide off a corner from Giggs. Kaka continued to threaten for Milan, but could not get his attempts on target. Paul Scholes then played a cheeky scooped ball into Rooney within the box, and after controlling it on his chest, the Englishman slid the ball under Dida to tie the match. United pushed for the winning goal, and they eventually earned it in stoppage time as a through ball by Giggs found Rooney, and his first time strike flew past an out of position Dida to earn Rooney the brace, and give United the advantage for the second leg.
Milans next match comes this Saturday against Torino in the Seria A as they try to clinch a Champions League berth for next season, while United take on Everton at Goodison Park, as they are in a tight race with Chelsea for the Premier League title. The second leg between the two will take place on May 2 at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan.

Q: Has the TARDIS been shown to transport objects bigger than its doorway? A number of times, the Doctor or his companion has been shown riding a motorcycle out of the TARDIS:

The Idiot's Lantern S02E07 (story 173)

The Bells of Saint John S07E06 (story 231)

 In The Magician's Apprentice S09E01 (story 251) he is shown to have a
 Tank "300 years ago" from Clara's time point of reference.

Has the TARDIS been shown to transport items larger than its doorway before?

A: The short answer is yes, the Doctor has demonstrated at least three ways in which out-sized objects could be transported by the TARDIS
The TARDIS can simply materialise around large objects that needs to be transported and de-materialise just as easily.

*

*In the classic Fourth Doctor serial Logopolis, the TARDIS materialised around a police phone box, placing the phone box inside the TARDIS. A similar trick was pulled in Dinosaurs on a Spaceship when Rory's father Brian is taken inside while standing on a ladder.

Objects touching the outside of the TARDIS can be transported with relative ease

*

*We see this happen in an incident where Captain Jack was transported through time while lashed to the outside of the TARDIS in Utopia:

*

*And this also works for a dinosaur in Deep Breath.

The TARDIS can grow and shrink to allow large objects to be taken through the main door

*

*In the episode Flatline, the TARDIS is shown to be transporting something substantially larger than its doorway, namely the Doctor.

*

*It stands to reason that the TARDIS can be expanded to create a doorway large enough to fit a tank, something we see happen in The Name of the Doctor when the 'Dimensional Dampeners' on the TARDIS begin to malfunction and it swells to alarming size.

Re: Tanks

*

*Although it's not strictly on-topic for the question, you may also want to note that the Doctor has unlimited access to miniaturisation technology. He could simply shrink a tank, pop it under his fez and grow it when he gets to the other end of his journey.

*Of course, we're assuming he didn't just take the tank apart, fit it through the door in pieces and rebuild it when he got to the other side.

A: Richard gave many good examples in his answer, but he missed the biggest one.
In the episode Journey's End the TARDIS transports the whole Earth back to its original position.

A: This isn't form "before", but I thought it was worthy of being mentioned.
The biggest object in TARDIS that I remember from 2005 series is... a star, on a verge of collapse to a black hole.

It appears in the 11th Doctor episode Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS.
It's called the Eye of Harmony - a power device. The Doctor describes it thus:

DOCTOR: The Eye of Harmony. Exploding star in the act of becoming a black hole. Time Lord engineering. You rip the star from its orbit, suspend it in a permanent state of decay.
 Transcript from Chakoteya

To append Valorum's point about tanks, a video from series 9, episode 1 - The Magician's Apprentice):

New Journal Focuses on Orthopedic Experience and Innovation
By Heather Tunstall
When Ira Kirschenbaum, M.D., first had the idea for the Journal of Orthopaedic Experience & Innovation, it was with the intention of addressing two main topics that seemed to be missing from industry publications. As its name implies, he hoped to provide articles that examine a surgeon's experience and peer review papers on innovation.
It was 2009, and at that time, innovation and experience were discussed mainly at conferences or in labs, but not in journals in any kind of timely manner.
"There wasn't a home to publish peer review papers on innovation or experience," Dr. Kirschenbaum said. "We had to wait for 10 years for a 3,000 outcomes study, and in the meantime, the innovation has been out for 10 years and no one is able to express why they came up with it, what problem they're solving or their one-year experience with it. So, we felt that there was a void."
Dr. Kirschenbaum is a joint replacement surgeon and member of Ortho Founders, a network of orthopedic surgeons who have started companies to implement efficiencies in their day-to-day work. He presented his idea for the journal to the group, which agreed to name it the official journal of Ortho Founders.
"The force who really helped me the most, and I'm very thankful for him, is Vinod Dasa," Dr. Kirschenbaum said. "He saw the value of the journal early, and has been a great comrade in arms on ideas to make the journal better. All of the Ortho Founders group have been very supportive of the work."
Though the idea for the journal sparked in 2009, it launched in 2020 after the necessary pieces began to fall into place. Dr. Kirschenbaum has three rules of entrepreneurship: First, you need the idea; second, you need the ability to make it; and third, you need a distribution network. The idea was there, and it took time for the ability and the distribution network to push the peer-review-based journal forward. With the advent and maturity of a publishing platform called Scholastica and the sophistication of the LinkedIn platform for distribution, he was ready.
The Journal of Orthopaedic Experience & Innovation is an online, ongoing collection of articles that will be assembled into a single print publication at the end of each year. We asked Dr. Kirschenbaum, whose titles include Editor-in-Chief of the journal, Chairman of Orthopedics for BronxCare Health System and Founder of the patient referral platform Referral Pad, to share more information on what to expect from the new publication.
How would you describe the journal's specific focus?
Dr. Kirschenbaum: We're an online media source that peer reviews innovations on clinical, economic and all other aspects of orthopedics, including industry. It's a fresh set of eyes that also brings back some old school features. We are very interested in experiences inside and outside the ivory towers. So, for example, if a very prestigious institution publishes their 10-year follow-up on joint replacement, we are also interested in the 10-year follow-up in an inner-city community hospital.
Even though it's the same disease and the same implant, we think they're different scenarios, different experiences and different results. We want to know, what's your experience in Los Angeles? What's your experience in Holland? What's your experience in Chicago? And what's your experience in the Medicaid hospital in Louisiana?
What are some of the more important topics the journal has covered thus far, and what is the impact of these topics on orthopedics today?
Dr. Kirschenbaum: One article is focused on an orthopedic surgeon who uses a robot for his joint replacement [procedures], which is still very debated in orthopedics. He uses a robot exclusively and gets 10 cases done a day, and is out early each day. He's writing an article for us on why he chooses a robot, and we also want to know how he's doing 10 joint replacements and getting out by a certain time that's early in the day. That's a story; that's an experience. We're pushing for details, and this is going to go through many reviews.
Recently we published a number of articles related to telehealth and its application in orthopedics. We have another one comparing post-surgical opioid use in an urban population and a non-urban population. Then, we have a blog section that talks about things like legal issues, with physician employment agreements or ways to market your practice during COVID. And, we have product reviews.
The journal has been a voice in the COVID-19 recovery. What important information are surgeons looking for during this time?
Dr. Kirschenbaum: What do I do? When do I do it? How do I do it? That's it. That's not only COVID, but I think in this busy world with so many options, even without COVID, sometimes you need the viewpoint of surgeons that are peer reviewed with good data, but it doesn't have to be the most perfect study all the time.
Who do you expect will submit abstracts or articles?
Dr. Kirschenbaum: The initial group of people were those whom I asked from the Ortho Founders group, as well as others. The majority of the editorial board, about 90%, are orthopedic surgeons. The rest is a mix—one is a lawyer and bioethicist, one is an MBA healthcare consultant. I even have some residents on the editorial board because I want their perspective.
We don't want to be the periodical that has other people report on people's work. Those are important published media and online media, but we really want the voice to come from the surgeon, and that's very important to use. For articles that we've turned away, we just graciously said this is neither about innovation, economics or clinical experiences.
One thing I want to do is what I call legacy articles. I would love to have quite senior orthopedic surgeons write articles about their experience in joint replacement, what they've seen. I'd like this journal to be a place where people could also feel that they're rubbing elbows with people who are thought leaders.
What do you want industry to know about the journal?
Dr. Kirschenbaum: We will gladly look at any submission. It's very easy to submit an article. We don't hold you to 10,000 rules and barriers. You could submit in almost any type of format; we'll restructure for you. We want you to format it how you want to tell the story. We're trying to be friendly to the submitters, to the readers and to the reviewers. We're an open access journal, which means that the journal is free. There's no subscription, but authors pay a $300 article processing charge.
We're also not afraid to publish innovation from industry, and that really separates us, I think, from any other journal. Great innovations come out of entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurship needs industry most of the time. It could be an individual orthopedic surgeon who starts his own company from an idea, or it could be someone who sells a patent to a big orthopedic device company, but that's an innovation. We are the journal that peer reviews these innovations from industry.

Ever since the Republican Party scored its electoral trifecta, gaining control of the White House and both houses of Congress, anti-hunger activists have been preparing for big fights over the nation's food assistance safety net. There have been three main arenas for this contest: the federal budget, Child Nutrition Reauthorization legislation, and the Farm Bill.
Last week, Temple University and Wisconsin Hope Lab brought together more than 400 students, faculty, college presidents, student services staff and advocates to consider new strategies to reduce food insecurity and homelessness among college students in the United States.
Ashley Rafalow, Director of Operations and Communications at the CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute appeared on CUNY TV's Independent Sources to discuss the recent expansion of universal free school lunch to all New York City public schools.
Institute faculty leadership Nevin Cohen, Nicholas Freudenberg, and professor emerita Jan Poppendieck recently published an essay on food policy in spring 2017 volume of the Journal of Food Law & Policy. The essay, "Food Justice in the Trump Era: Priorities for Urban Food Advocates," discusses the future of food policy under the Trump administration.
On May 18th, 2017, Andrew Fisher discussed his book Big Hunger: The Unholy Alliance Between Corporate America and Anti-Hunger Groups, (MIT Press, 2017) with Toni Liquori, founder and executive director of School Food Focus, and Greg Silverman, executive director of West Side Campaign Against Hunger. The panel was moderated by Jan Poppendieck, senior faculty fellow at the CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute and author of Sweet Charity.
Janet Poppendieck, activist, author, professor emerita at Hunter College, co-founder of the NYC Food Policy Center, senior faculty fellow at the CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute, and WhyHunger Board Member, reflects on her decades of research and advocacy to promote the School Breakfast Program in light of its 50th anniversary.
It will take us all some time to analyze the full implications of the outcome of the election and to understand the effects on food justice and health equity. As founders of the CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute at the CUNY School of Public Health, as public health researchers and advocates, and as individuals dedicated to social justice, we wanted to reaffirm the core commitments and values that inform our work.

Bidon V (andere Schreibweise Bidon 5, auch bekannt als Poste Maurice Cortier oder Poste Cortier) ist ein ehemaliger französischer Militärstützpunkt in der algerischen Sahara. Er liegt ca. 530 km südlich von Reggane an der Tanezrouftpiste zwischen Poste Weygand und dem algerischen Grenzort Bordj Badji Mokhtar.

Der Name Bidon V (französisch für "Fass 5") nimmt Bezug auf die im Jahre 1923 zur Streckenmarkierung aufgestellten und durchnummerierten leeren Fässer. Der alternative Name Poste Cortier erinnert an den französischen Offizier Maurice Cortier, der 1913 als erster Europäer die Tanezrouft mit Kamelen durchquerte.

Bidon V liegt etwa auf halber Strecke zwischen den Oasen Ouallene und Tessalit inmitten der Tanezrouft. 1935 wurde hier ein circa 30 m hoher Funk- und Leuchtturm in Form eines Stahlgittermastes errichtet. Der Ort besitzt eine Landepiste für Flugzeuge, eine Tankstelle und ein Hotel.
