2 Which documents need to be served formally?
3 Who is responsible for serving a document?
4 Address inquiries
5 How is the document normally served in practice? Are there alternative methods which may be used (other than substituted service referred to in point 7 below)?
6 Is electronic service of documents (service of judicial or extrajudicial documents through remote means of electronic communication, such as e-mail, internet based secured application, fax, sms etc.) permitted in civil proceedings? If so, for which types of proceedings is this method foreseen? Are there restrictions with regard to the availability/access of this method of service of documents depending on who the addressee is (legal professional, legal person, company or other business actor, etc.)?
7 'Substituted' service
8 Postal service from abroad (Article 14 of the Service Regulation)
9 Is there any written proof that the document has been served?
10 What happens if something goes wrong and the addressee does not receive the document or the service is effected in violation of the law (e.g. the document is served on a third person)? Can the service of the document nevertheless be valid (e.g. can violations of the law be remedied) or must a new effort to serve the document be made?
11 Do I have to pay for service of a document, and if so, how much?

The purpose of service is to ensure that defendants know the nature of the claim against them and are aware of the documents relating to the claim. The rules of court contain specific requirements to ensure that proper service is effected.
Any documents by which civil proceedings in the District, Circuit or High Courts are instituted (including appeals from a lower court) and all subsequent documentation in the proceedings.
The party on whose behalf the document purports to be issued or a person so authorised by him/her in that regard is responsible for serving the document.
4.1 Under Regulation (EC) No 1393/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 November 2007 on the service in the Member States of judicial and extrajudicial documents in civil or commercial matters, does the requested authority in this Member State on its own initiative, try and establish the whereabouts of the addressee of the documents to be served if the addressee no longer resides at the address known to the requesting authority?
No. The address for service must be provided by the requesting authority.
4.2 Do foreign judicial authorities and/or parties to judicial proceedings have access to registers or services in this Member State enabling the establishment of the person's current address? If yes, which registers or services exist and what procedure must be followed? What fee, if any, should be paid?
No. There is no central address/residence register for individuals. The registered address of a company may be found by carrying out a search on the Companies Registration Office website.
4.3 How do the authorities in this Member State deal with a request sent under the Council Regulation (EC) No. 1206/2001 of 28 May 2001 on cooperation between the courts of the Member States in the taking of evidence in civil or commercial matters aimed at discovering a person's current address?
The request is dealt with by the Circuit Court as a request under Regulation 1206/2001.
In the District Court service may be effected by
(i) Registered post
(ii) Recorded delivery prepaid post
(iii) Delivery by hand in a sealed envelope to a person other than the person on whose behalf it purports to be issued
(iv) Personal service or service on a relative over the age of sixteen years of age residing with the defendant.
In the Circuit Court almost all documents are served by registered post.
In the High Court, Order 9 Rule 2 of the Rules of the Superior Courts provide for personal service of an originating summons on an individual and also allows for non-personal service if due and reasonable diligence has been exercised in endeavouring to effect personal service. Subsequent documentation is usually served by registered post. (See Order 121 RSC, 1986 as amended). Section 51 of the Companies Act 2014 provides for service of documents by ordinary prepaid post on the registered office of a company registered in Ireland and Section 1310 of the Companies Act 2014 by the same means on an external company
Electronic service of documents is not permitted.
7.1 Does the law of this Member State allow for other methods of service in cases where it has not been possible to serve the documents to the addressee (e.g. notification to the home address, to the bailiff office, by postal service, or by poster advertising)?
Personal service or service by registered post are the usual methods of service. If Irish legal proceedings need to be served by another method such as by ordinary pre-paid post, fax, e-mail or advertisement, then an application is made to court for 'substituted service' and if granted, the proceedings can be served by the alternative method permitted by the court.
7.2 If other methods are applied, when are the documents deemed to have been served?
If service is effected pursuant to an order for substituted service, the documents are deemed served when the terms of the court order have been complied with. Where service is effected by post, there is a statutory presumption of service of the documents when they are delivered in the ordinary course of post. This is a rebuttable presumption.
7.3 If another method of service is the deposit of the documents in a particular place (e.g. at a post office) how is the addressee informed of that deposit?
If service has been effected pursuant to court order, then the addressee is informed in the manner set out in the court order. If the documents are served by registered post and the addressee is unavailable, then the postal staff leave a notice at the address requesting that the addressee attend at the post office to collect a registered post document. The letter is usually held at the post office for a week to ten days.
7.4 If the addressee refuses to accept service of the documents, what are the consequences? Are the documents regarded as effectively served if the refusal wasn't legitimate?
There are no consequences for refusing to accept service. Where it has not been possible to effect service in Irish legal proceedings, an application can be made to the court for an extension of time for service or to substitute an alternative method of service or both.
8.1 If the postal service delivers a document sent from abroad to an addressee in this Member State in a situation where acknowledgment of receipt is required (Article 14 of the Service Regulation), does the postal service deliver the document only to the addressee himself/herself or may it, in accordance with national rules of postal delivery, deliver the document also to another person at the same address?
For unregistered post, the document will be delivered to the address. For registered post, the document will be delivered to the named person only. This applies equally to internal and international post.
8.2 Under the rules of postal delivery in this Member State how can the service of documents from abroad, under Article 14 of the Service Regulation No. 1393/2007, be effected if neither the addressee nor any other person authorised to receive the delivery (if possible under national rules of postal delivery – see above) has been reached at the address of delivery?
As an alternative to postal delivery, Article 15 of Regulation No. 1393/2007 allows a person to effect personal service through a solicitor or a summons server.
8.3 Does the post office allow a specific period of time for collection of the documents before sending the documents back as undelivered? If yes, how is the addressee informed that there is mail for him to collect at the post office?
The post office generally sets a deadline on the notice sent to the addressee. The notice is left at the addressee's address. The deadline is normally one week.
District and Circuit Courts: when service is effected by registered post a statutory declaration is sworn by the person who posted the envelope, not earlier than ten days after the day on which the envelope is posted, exhibiting the certificate of postage.
High Court: an affidavit of service is sworn by the person who effected service as a necessary proof for court. In the case of an originating summons details of service should be endorsed on the said summons within three days of service and the affidavit of personal service should refer to this.
An application may be made to court to set aside any order made where notice of the court hearing has not been lawfully served on the respondent.
The costs will be that of postage or an agent's fee, if one is retained.

Possible Changes to Asbestos Litigation
April 22, 2013, 5:30PM . By Heidi Turner
Madison, WIProposed changes to asbestos claims have some people worried the alterations will slow down the asbestos lawsuit process, delaying lawsuits until plaintiffs have died. But the lawmaker who proposed the changes says they will help clarify whom plaintiffs hold responsible for asbestos cancer claims.
The LaCross Tribune (4/4/13) reports Rep. Andre Jacque has proposed a bill that would delay civil lawsuits alleging liability for asbestos-related diseases until the plaintiff states whether claims against now-bankrupt companies have also been filed. Plaintiffs can file lawsuits against now-bankrupt companies but do not always disclose that they have done so in lawsuits against still-solvent companies. Jacque says disclosing exactly which plaintiffs face asbestos-related claims will help to ensure defendants pay their fair share for the plaintiff's illness.
Critics, however, say the bill is designed to slow down litigation and delay it so the plaintiff will die before the lawsuit is finished. Jacque disputed the criticism, calling it "sickening" and said plaintiffs' lawyers hide claims against bankrupt companies in the hope of obtaining the maximum award possible.
According to Insurance Journal (4/9/13), states that already have a similar bill in place or are considering one include Ohio, Oklahoma and Illinois.
Under the proposed bill, plaintiffs would have to disclose that they have filed a claim against a bankrupt company's trust or that they plan to file such a claim. Documents related to all claim actions would have to be provided to all parties in the suit and any money won through the trust could be used to reduce payouts from solvent companies.

Asbestos lawsuits can be complicated because plaintiffs or victims who worked for multiple companies may be eligible to file a lawsuit against any of those companies believed to have contributed to the patient's asbestos exposure. In some industries there are numerous ways employees can come into contact with asbestos over the course of a career.
One lawsuit was filed in New Orleans against multiple plaintiffs, including Centerpoint Energy Inc, and Nebraska Public Power District, alleging Robert Lee Phillips, an employee of those and other companies, developed mesothelioma and died after exposure on many occasions to asbestos and products that contained asbestos. The Louisiana Record (4/19/13) reports the plaintiff, Phillips' wife, alleges negligence and failure to provide a safe work environment on the part of each of the defendants. The lawsuit seeks wrongful death and survival damages.
The lawsuit is Case No. 2:13-cv-00594.

Bloc Party returns with Four, the band's first full-length since 2008's acclaimed Intimacy. Produced by Alex Newport (The Mars Volta, At The Drive-In, Polysics), the album was recorded and mixed in New York City.
Production began in the winter of 2011 following a year-long hiatus during which the group contemplated disbanding, only to find its determination towards making a new record stronger than it had ever been previously.
Of Four, frontman Kele Okereke says, "It is the best thing that we have ever done and finishing this record has taken us on quite a journey.
In the past there has been so much written about what our records have meant, so much context and back story but I am adamant that this time these songs will stand on their own. This record is the sound of four people in a room, loving what they do and doing it to the best of their ability. It is the sound that only the four of us could make and I am prouder of it than any record we have ever made."


Gary D. Jones, 62, of North Manchester, IN, and having family in Warren, IN, died Saturday, Jan. 19, 2019, at 6:53 p.m. at Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne.

He also volunteered with Traffic Assistance Patrol for 15 years. For the last 24 years, he worked as a material handler at Wabash Valley Manufacturing in Silver Lake.
He was born May 27, 1956, in Wabash County to Philip M. and Mable A. Bash Jones. He married Teresa A. Hashbarger on Aug. 10, 1990, and she survives.
Additional survivors include two sons, Shane Jones, of Warren, and Brent Monce, of North Manchester; three daughters, Angie Eldridge and Melisa (Jeremy) Callahan, both of North Manchester, and Lizzie (Josh) Eads, of Sheridan; 10 grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.

Q: Array input/output problems? I am trying to learn C++ and I am having problem writing a simple program. What I want is a function that will take one integer input parameter, create a sequence of numbers stored in an array from 0 to that number, and the numbers are a summation. For example, given 7 outputs 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

A: You said you would like to fill an array where you plug in a value such as "7" and the array will fill up from 0 to  7.
This can easily be done:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <malloc.h>

int main() {

int i = 0, num = 0; //declare variables
scanf("%d", &num);
int *myArray = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int)*(num+1)); //malloc for array

for (i = 0; i <= num; i++){
    myArray[i] = i;  //fill array as you asked
    printf("%d", myArray[i]);   //print out tested values: 01234567
}

free(myArray);
return 0;
}

A: C-style:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <malloc.h>
int main()
{
     int num;
     scanf("%d", &num);
     int *arr = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int)*(num+1));
     int i;
     for(i = 0; i <= num; i++)
         arr[i] = i; //This is the array
     return 0;
}

C++ style:
 #include <vector>
 #include <iostream>
 using namespace std;
 int main(int argc, char ** argv)
 {
      int num;
      cin >> num;
      vector<int> arr;
      for(int i = 0; i <= num; i++)
           arr.push_back(i);
      return 0;
 }

A: By way of giving you a helping hand, start here and fill in the blanks:
#include <vector>

std::vector<int> make_sequence(int last)
{
    std::vector<int> result;
    // <fill this in>
    return result;
}

int main()
{
    // <probably do something useful here too...>
    return 0;
}

You're going to have to do some of this yourself though, that's the way StackOverflow works with regard to homework-like problems :)

Two mental health units criticised by inspectors
Connolly Hospital, Dublin
By Catherine Shanahan
Health Correspondent
Follow @cathshan
Friday, July 12, 2019 - 12:54 PM
A HSE mental health unit in a Dublin hospital where patients could not access a variety of health services and where communal rooms had a "stark" appearance has been criticised by the Mental Health Commission (MHC).
The Sycamore Unit at Connolly Hospital, which provides a Psychiatry of Later Life service, had "insufficient" staff numbers and skill mix to meet the assessed needs of residents.
Neither did it provide patient access to a physical health occupational therapist, a pharmacist, a social worker, or a psychologist.
In addition, a registered psychiatric nurse was not always on duty or in charge.
MHC inspectors said access to a dietitian "was provided for urgent referrals only, and there were no routine assessments or reviews for any resident".
Inspectors said the lack of provision of health services for this patient group was "unacceptable".
Moreover, the unit was "not kept in a good state of repair" and had a stark appearance "not in line with good practice in specialist care of people with dementia".

HSE management outlined a number of corrective actions to address the shortcomings including ensuring an appropriately qualified staff member was on duty and in charge at all times.
It said it was establishing a working group with management of Connolly Hospital to address the deficit of therapeutic services and that issues regarding maintenance would be communicated to estates in Connolly Hospital.
A 20-bed child and adolescent mental health unit (CAMHS) in Cork also came in for criticism for using CCTV cameras that "had the capability" to transmit a resident's image to a monitor that was viewed by administration staff, and not just the health professional responsible for the patient.
Éist Linn in Bessborough, Blackrock, was also criticised for breaching the code of practice when using physical restraint; for example, in two cases a doctor did not complete a medical examination of the resident within three hours of the restraint taking place.
Residents also had no access to an occupational therapist at the time of the inspection last February.
The HSE said an occupational therapist is now in post and that there is no longer recording equipment at the centre.
It also said staff would undergo training in physical restraint policy.

Most people believe there is based on Jesus' words in Revelation 2:20, but according to the text, Jesus was addressing a woman who was a SELF PROCLAIMED PROPHETESS and who was teachings ungodly doctrine and practices.
Jesus did not say she had a "spirit of Jezebel." Jesus simply called her Jezebel, most likely because she had similar traits to Jezebel, the domineering wife of King Ahab, in the Old Testament.
It's time for those who think they are prophets to get some SOUND DOCTRINE and stop making up things that they think they are called to reveal to the whole body of Christ.
Prophets in the New Testament do not have the same status as prophets in the Old. Prophets were not set in the church to led or guide the church.
The church is under the leadership of Christ who guides his people by His Holy Spirit.

LY is pleased to present Daniel Terna & Evan Whale, opening March 22, 2019 at 1501 S. Alameda Street, Suite D. This is the second exhibition for the newly opened art gallery in Downtown Los Angeles. There will be an opening reception on Friday, March 22, 5-8 pm.
Daniel Terna and Evan Whale use the medium of photography to uncover the aura of overlooked physical and social landscapes. Both artists present new bodies of work that, through layering and masking, expose the spirit of private relationships and public life, thereby challenging our perceptions of these.
Daniel Terna will show photographs taken in various locations from Hong Kong, Bangkok, Tokyo, to Los Angeles. Mixing the language of documentary and commercial photography, in addition to surveillance imagery, Terna creates photographs that evoke a sense of haunting neglect in public spaces. Architectural layers, barriers, or items blocked by compositional framing allegorize all that we fail to see, by choice or perspective.
Evan Whale presents for the first time a series of works that dissolve the distinction between photography and painting. Stacked Photoshop and pastel layers transform figures in a California hot spring and their surrounding environments into swaths of color that appear as part aura photograph, part Bonnard painting. By covering his subjects, Whale captures the exuberance of friendship on a general scale, without narrative specificity.

Ruins to Art: Timber Addition Transforms Abandoned Building
Article by SA Rogers, filed under Abandoned Places in the Architecture category
An abandoned traditional building on the coast of Madalena, Portugal has come back to life with a sculptural wooden extension that emerges from the back like a living organism. Cella Bar by FCC Arquitectura and Paulo Lobo leaves the original structure intact, merging the vernacular architecture with a wholly modern aesthetic in pale curving timber.
Missing elements of the abandoned building, like the doors and windows, were restored to make it look just as it did when it was first built, minus the charming weathering on the stones. The interiors were transformed to suit the building's new purpose as a restaurant, the wooden floors flowing out the rear doors, onto the original terrace and continuing onto the roof of the addition.
"The new extension is a contemporary creation, exposed to a completely different language," say the architects. "It is an organic, dynamic construction that contrasts with the orthogonal, classic language of the building where it is embedded. The design is defined by great plasticity, both in terms of forms and materials, and is markedly inspired by the natural environment around the site. Several features of that environment are present in the architecture of the building, including the outline of the island, rocks, whales and wine casks. The new volume acts like a giant sculpture, tailored for its location."

Passionate pioneers – increasing access to botanical artwork by women artists
Historically, female botanists and botanical artists were rarely given as much credit as their male counterparts. Botanical art was often viewed as a pleasant pastime for women who had time on their hands whilst their husbands were at work, and the contribution that these women made to the advancement of scientific illustration was often undermined.
To highlight the importance of these historically, scientifically and socially significant collections, Kew's Library, Art and Archives department, in collaboration with the Oak Spring Garden Foundation, is in the process of digitising its out of copyright work by women artists, spanning several centuries.
Kew holds over 200,000 prints and drawings, and this working resource is available to staff and visitors to the department, often providing a reference tool against preserved herbarium specimens. The ultimate aim of this collaborative effort is to ensure that high quality images of illustrations and their associated data is safely stored in digital format for future generations.

Her "Diversion": The Gardening and Botanical Pursuits of Mary Somerset, Duchess of Beaufort
Prominent botanist and cataloger of gardens, William Sherard (1659-1728), was hired by an aristocrat to tutor her grandson in botany for "hee loving my diversion so well." This was Mary Somerset, the first Duchess of Beaufort (1630-1715), an accomplished gardener and botanist in her own right. She sought solace in "natural learning" and tending plants, some cultivated in what she referred to as her "infirmary." As detailed in landscape historian and conservator Mark Laird's splendid A Natural History of English Gardening (2015), her gardening activities were a refuge from bouts of depression. She remarked in a letter of her cataloging: "When I get into storys of plants I know not how to get out." Laird's chapter on Mary Somerset, and other recent scholarly investigations, examine her work and help elevate her role in the history of science. Rather than simply a diversion from melancholia, she was dedicated in her studies, blossoming late in her life.

Isabella in Hawaii: The Adventures of an Amateur Botanist in the 1860s
How does a young woman create the most important record of Hawaiian flowers in the nineteenth century? Who helps her identify plants and find a London publisher? Why does she leave New Zealand for Niihau, the Forbidden Island? Thanks to a magnificent book in the Rare Book Collection of the Chicago Botanic Garden Library (and a little research), we can answer these questions.
With 44 delightful chromolithographed plates, Indigenous Flowers of the Hawaiian Islands is no ordinary book. Its illustrations introduced the world to an exotic, endemic, and vanishing flora. Indigenous Flowers provides a marker to measure the impact of humans on the fragile ecosystem of two Hawaiian islands, yet another signal of the Anthropocene epoch. Isabella McHutcheson Sinclair (1840–90) was probably the most unexpected ambassador for plant conservation. Her breadth of botanical experiences in the Pacific, in both New Zealand and the Sandwich Islands (better known today as Hawaii), gave her a particular vision to recognize the effects of humans on local flora and fauna.

Her Natural History: A Celebration of Women in Natural History
Women have made remarkable contributions to biodiversity research. From collecting specimens and serving as scientific illustrators to conducting and publishing research, authoring natural history books, and more, women have overcome many social and cultural obstacles and gender barriers in what has historically been a male-dominated field to help further our understanding of the natural world. While the work of many remained unacknowledged or under-appreciated during their lifetimes, mounting initiatives to encourage and support women in the sciences have facilitated a growing recognition of the achievements of women in natural history — both past and present.
This Women's History Month, we are excited to recognize and celebrate the contributions of women to natural history through an international social media campaign produced in collaboration with our partners — Her Natural History: A Celebration of Women in Natural History.
Kicking-off with an all-day social media blitz today, 8 March 2019 (International Women's Day,) and continuing throughout the month, Her Natural History aims to increase awareness of and information about women in the biodiversity sciences.

Within the next few years, it will take us only 12 minutes to cross a distance of 150 kilometers from Dubai to Abu Dhabi, if the futuristic transport system goes as planned in the United Arab Emirates.
The project was launched this week with the signing of an agreement between the Roads and Transport Authority agency of Dubai and Californian company Hyperloop One.
"This historic agreement will help us begin to analyze the possibilities of the world's first Hyperloop system," said Rob Lloyd, the Hyperloop One CEO.
Lloyd also pointed out that the first studies will help analyze the "value that would Hyperloop One brought to Dubai and the United Arab Emirates."
The first test of this system was carried out in May in Nevada when the capsule reached a speed of 1,200 kilometers per hour.
Josh Giegel, the vice president of engineering at Hyperloop One, believes this project could become a reality by the year 2020. If the project proves successful, it could be further developed and connect Dubai to Riyadh. The plane ride between these two cities is 2 hours long, but with Hyperloop it would take only 50 minutes.
After the United Arab Emirates, Hyperloop plans to spread across the globe.

Are Gas Stations Good Investments?
By: Steve Lander
Gas stations can fill your wallet and your tank.

1. How to Invest in a Gas Station
2. What Stocks Benefit From a Drop in Commodities
3. What Are the Two Types of Return Common Stockholders Receive for Their Investment?
Like any business, a gasoline station can be a good investment. When stations are well located and well-run, they can generate healthy profits. However, the business is also labor intensive, and your ability to operate profitably depends largely on factors -- like road construction or the price of fuel -- that are out of your control.
Nature of the Business
From a financial perspective, gas doesn't matter much at most gas stations. Unless you enjoy a location that lets you charge an above market price for your fuel -- like being right across the street from airport car returns -- gasoline sales are only marginally profitable after credit card fees. As such, most stations make their money on the sales in their convenience stores or through add-ons of additional services, such as car washes.
Analyzing the Numbers
Gas station operations are typically valued relative to their sales. However, when looking at a station's sales, it's important to break them out by category. Some items, like gasoline and lottery tickets, generate lots of sales but very little profit, while other items are the opposite. Furthermore, it can be hard to analyze a station's performance since the large quantity of cash transactions can lead to inaccuracies in the financial records.
Gas Station Risks
Gas station investing carries some real risks. Since most stations are dependent on vehicular traffic to drive their business, any change in traffic patterns can have a disastrous effect on their performance. As such, it's important to gauge what road construction could be coming. In addition, gas stations are exposed to environmental risks. While having double-walled tanks can go a long way to mitigating these issues, it's still important to understand what you're buying. Finally, gas stations are complicated businesses that require hands-on investment. If you aren't in a position to actively manage your investment, you could end up losing some or all of your investment.
Gas Station Real Estate
Instead of buying the actual gas station business, you could also buy the real estate underlying a gas station and become a landlord to an operating business. Doing this makes the investment much more passive for you since you're just the landlord. At the same time, you still have the benefit of owning what should be a good piece of land located on a busy corner. In addition, you may get special depreciation from the Internal Revenue Service and could get growth through increasing rents.

← Don't Be Left Behind…..
I thought over the next few weeks, I would reflect back upon my own experiences in school. Today I am going to share with you a moment in my school path that if it had gone differently, my time in school may have been a lot different.
My third grade and fourth grade classes were grouped homogenous. This grouping was supposed to be secret from the children but unfortunately it could not have been more obvious. At the start of the hall in classroom A, you had the very high achieving kids with the lowest of the low achieving kids (in this case to be high achieving meant that you were bright in math and literacy). The thought was that the "super high kids" would help the "super low kids". The next classroom down the hall had the high children with the medium low children. The third class contained the above average kids and the just below average children and the fourth room was all average children. And yes it was very obvious.
I was placed in classroom A and was definitely on the lower end of the "super high achieving kids". I lacked confidence and self-esteem which may have been a factor but honestly I just think I was not quite as "smart" as the other kids. My parents were called in to a parent-teacher conference and my teacher suggested that I be moved down a level into the classroom next door. Apparently I had done really well with the alphabetical order part of the reading test but I was lacking in some other areas. My parents knew what a move like this would do to me (I have never liked change) and suggested that we wait until next year to make a more natural move. Fortunately, my teacher let me stay.
I owe so much to my parents for standing up for me in this matter. If I had been demoted to the class next door it would have been extremely difficult socially and would have been a big blow to my own self-esteem. I am sure that I would have seen this as my teacher losing faith in my intelligence and ability to learn and would have probably lost interest/confidence in my schoolwork. I can only imagine the self-destructive path that a move like this would have caused. Thankfully I was not aware of the discussion that went on in this conference until I was an adult. As it turns out I was able to hold my own for the rest of the year and they placed me once again in Classroom A for 4th grade. I was able to keep up with the "high achievers" and did just fine. Now this example is not earth shattering by any means but had it gone differently, who knows what would have happened. My teacher was basing the majority of her decision on one test score. Unfortunately this is how many important decisions are made in schools because of factors like time and resources. I am thankful that I have supportive parents who know me, my abilities and were willing to advocate for me. It was their support throughout my life that has helped me to grow to become the person I am today. Thanks Mom and Dad!

Bush Marks Women's Day
၀၇ မတ္၊ ၂၀၀၆
President Bush marked International Women's Day with a White House reception where he vowed to continue working for women's rights and democracy in North Korea, Iran and Burma.
First Lady Laura Bush opened the program, saying there are encouraging signs of progress for women around the world, and her husband's administration is helping lead the way.
She said, "I've been privileged to meet thousands of women from many nations, and I believe that women everywhere share the same dreams: to be educated, to live in peace, to enjoy good health, to be prosperous, and to be heard."
In the United States, President Bush said women willing to take the lead have changed American history by campaigning for voting rights and civil rights.
Mr. Bush said, "Our history was altered because strong women stood up and led. These women broke down barriers to equality. We weren't always an equal society in America. And it required strong leadership to help make America a more equal place."
President Bush says empowering women in new democracies will lay foundations of peace for generations to come. Among those attending the White House reception were women leaders from Afghanistan and Iraq where Mr. Bush says women have made great strides since U.S. forces toppled the governments there. No longer denied basic rights and brutalized by tyrants, Mr. Bush says those women are now making their own history.
"As women become a part of the democratic process, they help spread freedom and justice and most importantly of all, hope for the future."
He says the United States is continuing to fund training programs for Afghan and Iraqi women while keeping the pressure on societies that still repress women.
"As we work to advance the equality of women in the world's newest democracies, we must remember that many women in other countries around the world are still struggling for basic rights in places like Iran and North Korea and Burma. America will help women stand up for their freedom no matter where they live."
The president says his administration is working with other nations to end sexual exploitation and the human trafficking of women and young girls who often end up in the sex trade.
He says Washington is also fighting the transmission of the HIV/AIDS virus which disproportionately affects women and children.

Iranian Judiciary Assumes Sweeping New Powers Over Lawyers
State Now Issues and Revokes Law Licenses, Crushing Independence of Legal Profession
Due Process and Fair Trial Rights Dealt Further Blow by New Legislation
July 12, 2021—In a sweeping grab of new powers over the Iranian Bar Association (IBA) that grants the Iranian judiciary the right to issue and revoke law licenses, the country's judicial establishment, now led by human rights violator Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei, has effectively destroyed the independence of Iranian lawyers.
New regulations unlawfully implemented by the judiciary chief, which render meaningless the right to due process and a fair trial, should be strongly condemned by lawyers, human rights groups, and the international community, the Center for Human Rights in Iran (CHRI) said in a statement today.
"The ongoing state policy of undermining Iran's independent bar association and its lawyers is eliminating the right to due process when Iranians need it the most," said Hadi Ghaemi, executive director of the Center for Human Rights in Iran.
"Human rights lawyers are a lifeline for citizens relentlessly and unlawfully targeted by the state, and the Iranian government expects the world to look the other way while it cuts this lifeline," said Ghaemi.
New Regulations Unlawfully Allow Judiciary to Deny Licenses at Its Whim
Iran's newly appointed judiciary chief, former intelligence minister and cleric Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei has the authority to ratify and issue certain regulations without parliamentary approval. Yet he does not have the authority to issue regulations concerning the legal profession. According to the Law on the Independence of Bars Associations, only the Bar Association has this authority.
Nevertheless, the Regulations for the Enforcement of the Law on the Independence of the Bar Association were approved in the final days of the term of the previous judiciary chief, Ebrahim Raisi (who was elected president on June 18, 2021, in an engineered election controlled by the hardline ruling clerical establishment), and ratified by the judiciary on June 23, 2021.
Previously, the IBA had the authority to issue and renew licenses to practice law, but the new regulations transfer this authority to the judiciary, which can now deny licenses to anyone. The regulations now also give the judiciary the power to revoke licenses, in violation of the same law, which had previously granted that authority to the Bar Association's disciplinary tribunal.
The ratifications are the latest step in a decades-long campaign against independent lawyers in Iran, primarily aimed at eliminating fair standards of due process for individuals accused of criticizing state policies.
"These regulations were designed to normalize the state's ongoing campaign against Iran's bar association and make it extremely costly and dangerous for lawyers to defend political prisoners," said Ghaemi.
The regulations also enable the judiciary chief to determine how lawyers should be trained and make it easier for state security forces to monitor lawyers.
Lawyers in Iran: Legal Profession Has "Lost Its Last Shreds of Independence"
The National Union of Iranian Bar Associations issued a statement on July 3, 2021, describing the regulations as "unenforceable" and in violation of "Article 22 of the Law on the Independence of the Bar Associations" as well as in disregard of "the opinions of bar associations throughout the country on how to conduct interactions with the judiciary."
Two days later the Council of Iranian Lawyers Organizations also condemned the regulations in a statement adding that "The regulations lack legal foundations as the judiciary has no authority in drafting and publishing them and they have inherent flaws that violate the Law on the Independence of the Bar Associations."
Reacting to the judiciary's new regulations, Nasser Zarafshan, a human rights lawyer in Iran, said the legal profession in Iran has "lost its last shreds of independence."
"It appears the judiciary wants lawyers to be like servants carrying out office work," he added in an interview with Emtedad newspaper on July 6. "They don't want lawyers to be independent-minded and courageous."
The former vice president of the IBA in Tehran, Shapour Manouchehri, meanwhile stated that the regulations "are in violation of Article 22 of the Law on the Independence of the Bar Associations, particularly in regards to the judiciary being the source and ratifier… and open the path to interfere in the IBA."
Despite the objections of the legal community, on July 5 the Administrative Court of Justice declared the regulations lawful and subsequently the judiciary informed all bar associations across the country that they will be enforced.
Lawyers Continue to Be Imprisoned for Doing Their Jobs
"President-elect Raisi hasn't even started his term yet and already we're seeing Iranian civil society being further strangulated while defense lawyers are imprisoned for doing their jobs," Ghaemi said.
"Human rights lawyers are paying with their freedom to try to provide due process within a system that is trying to destroy it," he added. "Now more than ever they need the international community to speak up for them."
There are numerous human rights lawyers currently imprisoned in Iran, convicted on manufactured charges after unfair trials for defending clients, the law, and basic civil and political rights in Iran.

Posted on May 4, 2018 by Grace Timothy
When I was growing up, my mum and dad never stopped telling me how amazing, clever, funny and beautiful I was. I know we're cautioned not to tell our daughters they're beautiful too often so that a huge weight isn't placed on that one quality as they grow up, but it made me feel quite invincible, thrown in among the 'you're so clever' and 'you're so funny' compliments. At 11 I went to an all-girl's high school and spent years happily uninterested in boys, my ego totally undamaged by them. I was silly, hard-working and my world revolved around my friends.
Then when we were about 14 or 15, we started getting invited to parties and I realised my time had come – I was going to unleash this witty, precocious (I felt sure that was a compliment at the time), charming almost-woman on boys and I was going to get to choose one for my first kiss. The first party, it didn't happen. But I was sure it was probably just my debut – they'd have to pluck up the courage to approach me. Then it didn't happen at the second party. By the third party, all my friends had kissed someone. I hadn't been approached. At the fourth or fifth I was approached! But the tall 14 year old just wanted to ask for advice on how to nail my friend. When it started to get me down, another girl suggested my hair – which I'd put up in a series of complicated twists and spikes with about 73 kirby grips and some plastic butterflies – might intimidate boys? I thought about dumbing it down, about not letting my train tracks show when I smiled. But I got into bed with my mum when I got home and she let me cry and then told me again how wonderful I was. Still, I wavered.
For the next five years I continued to waver. These boys had the power to make me question everything. I couldn't win them over with humour or with my grades. I mean, when you're just trying to grind up on a girl, you don't need their Barbra Streisand impression to get things going.
I didn't feel pretty anymore, and that seemed very important, more important than any of the things I thought I was good at or what my friends saw in me. I knew how adults around me tried to get pretty – dye your hair, be skinny, wear makeup, shave stuff, suck stuff in… And a lot of my favourite films were involved makeovers – She's All That, Clueless, Teen Witch, Grease – a quick eyebrow wax and a blowdry (or a perm…a perm!!) was all it took to make the protagonist desirable to the hottest guy at school. I wore Spanx, I stopped making jokes, I tried to grow my hair long, I tried living on Melba Toast for a bit, I did 100 sit-ups a night… Anyway, eventually, I came out the other side, and I hate that for a while, the opinions of boys – or, the opinions I assumed they had of me – counted more than what I thought of myself. But now have this incredible daughter I worry will be vulnerable to the same feelings. And so when I went to see I FEEL PRETTY I took a whole bunch of feelings with me.
It felt like the premise revolved around the idea that it's so ridiculous that anyone would find this woman attractive, or think that she could fit into the army of model-like executives working at her dream office. It has echoes of the Shallow Hal joke that a man is going round worshipping an obese woman because he doesn't realise she's obese. OBVIOUSLY if he had realised, he would have been repulsed! HAHAHA! I watched that film and WAS repulsed actually, because once again we were being framed to laugh at someone who was just automatically considered an unrealistic love interest on account of her size. Even Jack Black's eventual redemption didn't do it for me.
*semi spoiler alert warning*
But I Feel Pretty is a little different. Because it's really about a woman – played by the AMAZING Amy Schumer, whom I love very deeply – with low self esteem who finds an abundance of it (thanks to a head injury…hmm), and actually by being confident and loving herself, convinces even the twattiest people she encounters that she really IS awesome. She might not look like a supermodel but she loves herself. GOOD MESSAGE! Bad message? She's conned into thinking that way by a head injury. But it's a journey and she eventually realises she looked the same all along and it was her attitude that changed, and tells everyone to throw off the constraints of physical beauty and feel good, worthy and powerful for all our combined strengths and weaknesses – GOOD MESSAGE!
What made me uncomfortable was the sniggers – both on screen and from fellow viewers – whenever she said how fabulous she was. I wanted to punch those fuckers right in the smug faces. This is where I'm confused – is the joke on her if she's making it? Is it on all women who aren't in that narrow market or 'perfection'? Are they laughing at all of us? I kept thinking of 15 year old me, strutting into a party in my blue sparkly lurex dress from Morgan, and feeling so angry and sad about the moment that confidence and self assurance was dismantled, because I didn't fit. Plus, Amy is (I would say) shaped like the majority of women, and is an attractive person, so the characters in the film AND those assholes around me laughing their faces off were laughing at a non-supermodel woman loving herself, as if that's absurd. But here's why I think Amy and co. might have the last laugh…
Amy recently told Oprah about why she joked about 'grey area rape' in her stand-up routine. She lost her virginity to her boyfriend who penetrated her without consent while she slept and she made jokes about it, she says, so that any men in the audience would absorb that message – you have to get consent. It was a message to all men disguised as a joke so they wouldn't shut down or ignore it. And while it's NUTS that in 2018 we still have to dress up stark warnings like this, it made sense to me. And I think maybe that is what is happening with this film? Hollywood needs a romantic interest and a sexy job to shoot for to make sense of it all. Amy Schumer is a pull because she's made some funny films already. So it's like an easy, 'safe' entry point to the people with the shit attitude towards beauty, and then she hits them with it – it's not ok to shame somebody for their shape, appearance or self confidence [you douchebag].
I don't think you can go into this film thinking you're going to get a classic Schumer comedy. Judd Apatow had nothing to do with this film. Amy didn't write it, although she said she collaborated with the writers, and I feel like it would have been sharper if she had written it, maybe? But I hope all the assholes who body shame, slut shame and generally mess with our self esteem and create impossible ideals will feel uncomfortable like I did, and I hope they'll get that not-so-subtle message into their heads. And as a mum? I hope that message spreads far and wide before my daughter starts feeling inhibited and self conscious.
NOW: Go and see it, I need to discuss with people who have seen it….

The basic foundation of our culture today is moral relativism and I call that a myth. In other words, we are basing our civilization and our culture on a moral concept.
Ladies and gentlemen that can't possibly be true to have forgotten God without God's truth also forgotten how to think this week on Renewing Your Mind, Dr. RC Sproul has provided us with a blueprint for thinking today. His focus is on what determines right and more chewing RC no. So far in our examination of the chief elements that are necessary to construct the Christian life and worldview. We've considered briefly epistemology the science of knowing how we come to knowledge at all.
How do we discern what things are true and what are not. We look briefly also with the task of metaphysics which is man's attempt to probe those questions beyond what we can see and say can sense with the rest of our empirical hours and then we looked at the character of God as being essential for understanding how we view the world and our lives and then last week examined how our understanding of mankind influences how we treat people how we respond to God in the light that in this fifth session, as we consider the elements of life and worldview were going to look now at ethics and during these moments together. We had the special guest. Be with us on education. Mr. Rodin's thinker and I've amused us. We got along over what it is this possibly has them so absorbed continuously in such deep and provocative cogitation and idea.
I think I know the answer. During the interim between the last lecture and this lecture I had a private conversation with the statue and he revealed to me the subject matter of his heavy concentration. He said he's been thinking about the Beatles not the musical Beatles Rodin at that time that rather the bugs that we call Beatles and the thinker was pondering this question do Beatles Japanese beetle whatever kind of beetle is your favorite color beetle. He said do Beatles have consciences to Beatles commit crimes against other Beatles are there beetle courts and beetle prisons. This is the kind of speculation that the artist is caught now and immortalized in stone though of course I'm teasing, but the question is not a joke.
Do other creatures in this world struggle with questions of guilt and of justice through other creatures in this world struggle with matters of righteousness do Beatles care whether other Beatles behave in a morally appropriate way or is the subject of ethics and morality uniquely a human concern. There are those who are convinced in our day and age that ethics should be as important to us as it would be to Beatles and no more because we are nothing but more sophisticated garden-variety Beatles again. Our anthropology determines ultimately our ethics, how we view the importance of humanity will have tremendous influence on how we behave. It's that simple. Now, as I've use the blackboard and various occasions.
I keep walking Cassie's bookcases and I promise you that none of these books were placed here as stage props, running that likes my keep falling on this little book here which is a leather bound edition of CS Lewis is a mortal work now called mere Christianity as many years as Lewis is been dead.
This book still sells over hundred thousand copies every year just in the English-speaking world.
Mere Christianity is a box that's in simple terms set forth in the central claims of the Christian faith is been useful, particularly among college students and intellectually oriented people to give them an initial presentation of the Cardinal tenants of Christianity as I was just leaving through this for old time sake.
I noticed the title of the very first chapter it reads right and wrong as a clue to the meaning of the universe right and wrong as a clue to the meaning of the universe. It was Dostoyevsky who said pondering the pessimism of his age. Of those who had declared the death of God as he pondered the implications of that Dostoyevsky said if there is no God, then all things are permissible.
Immanuel Kant, who in many regards, Doug the grave of the classical defense of Christian theology, in spite of his agnosticism with respect to proving the existence of God can't declared in his final writings.
Practically speaking, as I mentioned before, we must live as if there is a God. And though God banished God from theoretical thought. He went around to the back door the house and worry banished God out the front door. He went around the back door and ushered God back in on practical grounds.
His argument for the existence of God was not theoretical, not rational, not empirical but moral. Kant argued in this fashion for ethics to be meaningful.
This is a simplified shorthand version of it for ethics to be meaningful. There must be justice. That is, before anybody has a right to say you must. You ought. You should everyone in this room has said that the somebody else you want to do this and you've all heard people give you rules and regulations constantly for any of that can possibly be meaningful. There must be justice. Why is it there's no justice.
Why should we be concerned about doing what is right or doing what is one who cares thereon argue that we can look around the world and we can see manifest injustice. We can see people who rewarded who don't deserve to be rewarded and people who were punished and afflicted, though they are innocent. Some even cry out in despair. There is no justice in this world will that's not altogether true.
There is some justice but I don't have anyone in here.
We think there's enough justice in this world and if justice is thwarted at any point concept why should we be concerned about ethics sources. There has to be justices of order have to be for there to be justice would have to be a judge and the judge would have to be just and the judge would have to be omnipotent and all the rest of the righteous himself, and we would have to survive the grave in order to go to a place where there is justice. And by the time cards finished on his practical argument he's constructed almost the whole of the Christian faith is a God who is just who promises the last judgment holds every human being accountable for every action that we perform.
But remember what he said. He said that doesn't prove God exists only he is saying that it proves the necessity of the existence of God for ethics to be meaningful and of ethics are not meaningful, somehow, Kant said society ultimately becomes impossible.
The 19th century saw people who were not inclined towards religious commitment, and so on. Throwing their hats in the year rejoicing over their newfound freedom when God was banished from the universe. They said no more teachers, you know, no more books, no more sassy look schools out. I don't have to listen anymore to this God who is dead. Who's always running right shadings verify site thou shall not do this enough.
Shall I do that and if you do this you really got Ellen someone down with Moses done with Yahweh ballot Jesus ministry now to carve out his own destiny. The good news of 19th century philosophy was that man is no longer accountable to God. The message of 20th century philosophy is man no longer counts and that's a simple step in logic is if you're not accountable for your life.
Ultimately, that means ultimately your life doesn't count. That's what Dostoyevsky was getting at. That's what Lewis is saying here when he says right and wrong is clue to the very meaning of the universe because if there is no right and there is no raw there can't possibly be any meaning that we glibly here in every quarter in United States of America.
There are no absolutes. We've gone through moral revolution, where preference has replaced duty and special interests replace law and discussion after discussion with those involved in the arena of politics and law, and I hear the clich� over and over and over again.
You can't legislate morality with the phrase used to mean ladies and gentlemen was just because you pass a law does not guarantee the people's behavior patterns are going to train but now that phrase means that it is illegitimate for any branch of the government to be involved in the exercise of passing laws of the moral character is morality, there's no such thing as black-and-white right and wrong goodness or badness morality become a relative matter. We have lived through the relative causation of ethics in our own generation, I say to people who say you can't legislate morality.
So what do you legislate the state bird, but even the state bird has moral ramifications and moral implications of ecology. If nothing else, how I drive my car with respect and with responsibility towards my neighbor is a moral matter. If you can't legislate morality. Should we have laws against murder. If you can't legislate morality. Should we have laws against theft. These are moral matters, but our society really doesn't believe in total moral relativism because it understands ladies and gentlemen, that in a situation and environment of pure moral relativism society is impossible. Historians have told us that every civilization, every culture in world history has been built upon the foundation of a philosophy, a religion or mythology something that gave unifying stability to the culture we have gone through. I'm convinced three stages in American history.
We went through the initial stage when the pilgrims came here of a theological foundation for our civilization, but then passed in the 18 century from a theological foundation to a philosophical foundation and now we are teetering precariously, much as a fiddler on the roof on the basis of the mythological foundation looming by that I mean by that that the basic foundation of our culture today is moral relativism and I call that a myth because what has in common with the myths is that myths have no real correspondence ultimately to objective truth. In other words, we are basing our civilization and our culture on a moral concept. Ladies and gentlemen that can't possibly be true.
And that's why we can't live with it.
That's why we approach more and more every day internal warfare between and among various preference and special interest groups. We were in serious trouble in Wichita, Kansas. Thousands of people have been thrown in prison because they were involved in protesting abortion clinics were abortion in the third trimester was being performed legally. So far that's the largest protest event centering on abortion, it would not surprise me to see that issue which I think is the most serious ethical issue that the United States of America has ever had to wrestle with in its history and the fact that it is as nonviolent as it has been so far in our culture is only further testimony to the fact that people don't care about ethics in our culture, and any other generation, it would've provoked the Civil War and it may still in our culture. But what are the guiding ethical principles. The control the life and worldview of the culture in which you live. I mentioned Nietzsche already and I mentioned Nietzsche's work on biological heroism. Nietzsche also had much to say about ethics, Nietzsche made a distinction between what he called master morality and herd morality when he called for the Superman to come down and create a new civilization he was asking that someone who would have the courage to do what he wanted to do to live by his own rules to live by his own standards. Nietzsche described his existential hero as somebody who built his home on the slopes of Vesuvius. He sailed his ship in the uncharted seas. He shook his fist in defiance of God he created his own law that's the existential hero. He doesn't answer to anybody else's rules. Anybody else's regulation.
He does his own thing that was Nietzsche's hero the master morality.
The Superman who would dare to do what he wanted to do to exercise his own will to power. I disagree with all but one thing I agree with emphatically with Nietzsche's analysis of 19th century Europe. He said that 19th century Europe in the main, as a civilization as a culture lives according to a herd morality when he arrived at the herd morality six. We heard that before. All we like sheep led astray. Did you ever really watch a flock of sheep move through a meadow I see the abrupt changes they never go in a straight line there were all over the place.
It organized chaos. If you want a contradiction in turn hello. I do have is be in front of it moves in this direction. Everybody goes in that direction.
Sheep obviously don't give a whole lot of careful ethical analysis in making decisions about which step they're going to take next.
They go with the flow's the American ideal.
He said to go with the flow picot the herd morality if ever there was a need for a reformation of ethics. It's now not only in government and in the school, but especially in the church, but for that to happen. It requires among other things, moral courage, I saw something on television recently that I could hardly believe what I was saying too many things that shocked me, but a newscaster came on and announced to the world that catastrophic upheaval was taking place in the Soviet Union. They said a coup was underway, in which the premier Mikhail Gorbachev had been overthrown and was being held hostage in his vacation dosha in the Crimea with his family and eight members of the inner counsel of the power structure of Russia in Moscow and seize control of the nation at all the hopes of the West for ongoing reform and for the total thawing of the Cold War and the establishment of peaceful, harmonious relationships among nations in one small announcement or shatter and the film started showing tanks rolling down the center boulevards of Moscow because those who are leading the coup had the military behind and the tanks stopped and the people like people always in the herd shrunk back into her, and once again the forces of tyranny and of evil were about to imprison the nation.
And then I saw when I couldn't believe with my deceit. One may one man against the herd, one man steps out of the crowd.
One man with courage in the presence of tanks and an organized political coup runs up and jumps on top of the tank and screams of the people who are said no.
This is wrong and it the day before people hadn't heard a name of Boris Yeltsin and that one moment he became an international hero was religious convictions, but I know is a man with moral courage. A man who said no to the crown. A man who said no to the herd. Amanda said yes to what is right is what Chris is about bottom line Christianity is that we are called to seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness. That's an ethical mandate and if the rest of the world doesn't believe there is such a thing as right or wrong. As I said in a relativistic culture. Nobody's a consistent relativist. We know that he said that there are no absolutes except the absolute there's absolutely no absolutes that is a self-defeating state people suitably really all rules of right and wrong until you steal the property. The moment you take your private property there jumping up and down saying that's not fair that's not right though the myths of moral relativism is modern man's attempt to create an ethical license for sin to call evil good and good evil, of course, if there is no God, there is no good. There is no evil.
And it doesn't matter who jumps on the tank and who jumps up the Christian life and worldview seeks to establish the rules of thinking the rules of determining how we know what is true because not everything that everybody says is true. Maybe that's what has them so preoccupied. Maybe sitting here wondering who in the world is speaking the truth you trust is telling the truth. How do you know that's a question of epistemology. Ultimately, what is the truth. What is it the question of business. What is real old, that's a metaphysical question who is the truth is a theological question. How does the truth relate to me and defined me is an anthropological question and how the truths commands me is an ethical. These are the elements of a Christian life and will ignore one of you will have a distorted view of the world and of your you know this is the kind of teaching that drew me to RC back in the early 90s. I only heard these concepts in the classroom and they see brother abstract to me but to hear Dr. scroll bring a Christian biblical worldview to these intellectual ideas work with powerful and that's why I hope you request this series there are five messages and we will add them to your online learning library. When you give a donation of any amount to look at your ministries. Once you've made a request will also send you Dr. scroll series. The consequences of ideas or 35 messages there surveying Western thought through the centuries. RC shows is the impact of these ideas on world events. Theology and culture. You can request it along with a series blueprint for thinking when you call us at 800-435-4343 or when you go online to Renewing Your Mind.org.
Let me also invite you to take a look at our library of podcasts you can travel back in time with Dr. Stephen Nichols and his podcast five minutes in church history, experience new moments of insight from Dr. scroll's lifetime, a Bible study on ultimately with RC scroll and you can find biblical and theological answers on ask Luca Lear subscribe on your favorite podcast out to take this trusted teaching with you on the go, but within Christianity.
Two concepts will almost always cause controversy is your total depravity and predestination next week. Dr. Steven Lawson joined just to show how those two documents are clearly taught in the Gospel of John. I hope you make plans to join this beginning Monday here on Renewing Your Mind
