Health cash plans may appear simple to operate and use, but employers and staff must be aware of the terms and conditions in the small print.
Small print may restrict cash plan claims.
Employers should read cash plan terms and conditions carefully before implementing a scheme.
Employees need educating about the terms and conditions of their plan.
Employers' need for valuable employee benefits has never been greater, so it is important to ensure the perks on offer do not fall short of staff expectations because of their terms and conditions.
Health cash plans are a case in point. Employers must ensure they know exactly what plans cover and what they exclude, plus any restrictions that staff should know about.
For example, there is a growing trend to use health cash plans to cover private medical insurance (PMI) excesses. This enables staff to minimise PMI premiums, and therefore their healthcare costs. But some cash plans will only cover PMI excesses on treatments the cash plan covers, such as consultations, so employers should check the small print, particularly if PMI excess cover is a prerequisite for their plan.
Cash plan providers may also insist that employees only use healthcare professionals from an approved list when claiming for treatment. Employers should check such details if changing providers and make staff aware that they may need to switch from the professional they are currently seeing to ensure their treatment is covered under the plan.
But employers should first consider any pre-existing conditions among staff that could prevent immediate use of a cash plan. Plans can stipulate that they do not cover pre-existing conditions, and some have a waiting period before certain benefits are available.
For example, Simplyhealth's cash plan has a 12-month waiting period before its new child payment can be made, and someone who is pregnant when the policy is taken out cannot claim this particular benefit.
Employers must also consider employees' extra-curricular activities that could affect their ability to claim through a cash plan. For instance, an employee who is injured taking part in a sport for which they receive payment may find their plan will not pay out to cover their treatment.
The way in which an employer arranges a health benefit can determine whether or not a cash plan will cover certain claims. For example, Engage Mutual will pay out for health screening if it is arranged by the employee, but not if it is arranged by their employer in the workplace, says David Castling, commercial sales manager at Engage Mutual.
Claim periods are another potential pitfall for employers and employees. It could take as long as a year, sometimes up to two years, for an employee to be able to make a second claim on the same benefit. For example, buying a pair of glasses through a cash plan could use up an employee's optical benefit allowance, so they would have to wait until the next benefit period to claim again for, say, an optical treatment or eye test.
Dental and optical are the benefits most commonly claimed under health cash plans, but even these are subject to restrictions.
Health Shield's Wood says certain cash plans' dental benefits will not cover dental procedures such as teeth whitening, which could be an important benefit for employees in a customer-facing role. "Also, with optical, some providers will not cover contact lens solutions, which I do not understand because if you use contact lenses, you need to buy the solution to clean them," he says.
As part of this exercise, employers should also look at cash plan reimbursement levels. Some providers will offer 100% reimbursement on all benefits in the plan, while others vary reimbursement between benefits.
Finally, staff who want to add a partner or dependant to their plan should check what benefits they will receive under this extended cover and the impact on the cost of the plan.
Matthew Judge, technical director at Jelf Employee Benefits, advises cash plan users to check the small print about dependants. Some cash plan providers grant each child on a plan access to their own benefits, while others offer set benefits for any children listed on the plan to share, so one could use the physiotherapy benefit and another the optical cover.
Mike Blake, compliance director at PMI Health Group, warns employers that some plans only cover children up to a certain age, which could cause problems if an employee is using their plan in conjunction with PMI. The employee could find that the PMI plan covers their children into their twenties, but the cash plan covers them only up to the age of 18.
Medicash's Abernethy agrees, adding that a health cash plan is designed for employees to make claims on, so there should be no overly restrictive terms and conditions that would prevent claims being made.
Some plans do not cover pre-existing medical conditions, and even those that do, tend to limit it. Employers should identify providers' approach to pre-existing conditions and ensure their employees understand the importance of disclosing any conditions they may have.
Most cash plans do not require medical examinations, so staff must disclose any existing conditions to maximise the chances of claims being covered.
Plan members are typically unable to claim in the first few months after joining. This clause is designed to prevent people joining the plan to claim for a current condition and then cancelling the policy.
Having identified the conditions covered, employers should assess the charging structure. Staff will typically be able to claim in full or a percentage of their costs. Should an employer make the wrong selection, staff should know that all cash plans are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, which means 90% of their spend is protected.
Many providers offer children's cover for free, so it is worth quizzing providers about what they will and will not cover.
What's on offer in the health cash plan market?

Check out the hottest male dancers in Chicago!
Many girls look at strippers like they are a threat. But according to Sarah Bickerville a waitress from Elgin, a stripper helped her find the love of her life. Sarah was a hopeless romantic who tried just about every type of dating website and dating service that was out there. Melissa was a female stripper who loved Sarah's diner, and would go there 3 to 4 nights a week after work.
Melissa and Sarah developed a friendship. They had a mutual interest in bike riding. So every Sunday the 2 girls would go on long bike rides. Melissa and Sarah became really good friends and started hanging out with each other's social circles. Sarah instantly fit in with Melissa's friends, but Melissa did not get the same treatment with Sarah's friends. Melissa was a gorgeous girl and was obviously threatening to a lot of girls. Sarah's friends just couldn't have Melissa around. This upset Sarah to the point where she stopped hanging out with her old friends. Sarah could not understand why the girls couldn't look past their own insecurities. Also Sarah was ashamed to have friends who were so judgmental of Melissa being a female stripper. Sarah and Melissa's relationship got stronger and stronger. Melissa invited Sarah to her sister's wedding where she introduced Sarah to her brother Matt. It was love at first sight and Sarah and Matt were inseparable. Two years later Melissa was the maid of honor in Sarah's wedding with Matt.
The moral of the story is not to judge a book by its cover. Sarah was an awkward girl working the graveyard shift as a waitress who had trouble finding love. Melissa was a female stripper who instantly gets judged by girls the minute she tells them what she does for a living. Both of these girls found an amazing friendship, and Sarah found the love of her life.
It is a good judge of character when someone can look past their differences and actually find common ground. This is how the greatest friendships are developed. The only fair way to judge people is whether or not they are a good person. Sarah and Melissa were both looking for something that they were missing and they found it in each other. Sarah lost friends standing up for what is right! If you have a friend getting brushed off by your group because of things they can't control, you can make a stand like Sarah did. If a person has problems with people for reasons like what they do for a living, are not worth your energy. Sometimes it is hard, but you have to move on and drop the friends that are negative or that are dragging you down. Just because you have known someone the longest, that doesn't make them your best friend. A best friend is based on who makes you a better person. Sarah and Melissa made each other better people. So maybe one day a female stripper will become your BFF. Keep your eyes open and your life might take a turn for the better.

Flat roofs are functional, effective and good value for money, which is why many people will opt for flat roof construction over a pitched one.

Why is my skin red after a session?
I'm using a contraceptive patch, can I still use Bottom?
Can I use an abs belt while trying to conceive / before undergoing IVF cycles?
Are there any ill-effects from using EMS stimulation over long periods of time?
Can I use my Slendertone product to treat weakened muscles due to forced rest following an injury?
Can I use a Slendertone belt if I have a belly button piercing?
How long do you have to wait after having an IUD fitted?
Can I use a Slendertone belt after having a baby?
Can I use the product after having an abortion?
Is the pulsation coming from the belt radiation which may lead to cancer?
In any medical patch, the medication is absorbed slowly through the skin into the bloodstream. Provided that you do not place any of the gel pads over the patch, we do not believe that the product would interfere in any way.


(Florence, SC) -- The death of a Florence County deputy is hitting close to home for some parishioners.

Turner was a security guard at First Presbyterian Church, and County Council Chairman Kent Caudle, who attends the church, remembers her as a joyous person.
Assistant Pastor Chris Handley tells WLTX Turner loved the church, and the church loved her.

«Червоні дзвони. Фільм 2. Я бачив народження нового світу» — радянсько-мексикансько-італійський фільм режисера Сергія Бондарчука 1982 року про події 1917 року в Росії. В основу фільму покладено книгу Джона Ріда «Десять днів, які потрясли світ». Друга частина дилогії «Червоні дзвони».

Сюжет
Автор спробував з максимальною достовірністю відновити хід історичних подій 1917 року, від повернення Леніна в Росії до Жовтневої революції. Широкими мазками даються масштабні картини масових маніфестацій і демонстрацій, багатолюдних з'їздів і мітингів, поля битв і вулиці революційного Петрограда. Ось легендарний вокзал і знаменитий виступ з броньовика приїхавшого Леніна, ось багатотисячна Липнева демонстрація і розстріл її військами Тимчасового Уряду. Ось розгром друкарні газети «Правда», звідки тільки що пішов Ленін. Корніловщина, навчання червоногвардійців на площі, виступ Керенського в Таврійському палаці, історичне засідання ЦК більшовиків про збройне повстання, коридори революційного Смольного і Зимового палацу — і всюди на периферії подій маячить всюдисущий американський журналіст Джон Рід, який невпинно строчить в блокнот новини з місця історичних подій.

Продовжуючи традиції Ейзенштейна, Сергій Бондарчук з документальною прискіпливістю відтворює реальну картину подій. З цією метою він свідомо взяв на основні ролі акторів, які раніше майже не знімалися, і показав як діючих персонажів революції такі «заборонені» історичні особистості, як Л. Б. Каменєв, Г. Є. Зінов 'єв, Л. Д. Троцький.

Tackling ADHD With Love
By Diana Corrales - VP of Marketing and Communications
The door to Denis's classroom is completely covered with colorful phrases, drawings, and clippings. Among the phrases written by hand, one stands out: "We learn from mistakes and celebrate the success of others." Carelia, the teacher and creator of the murals, smiles and proudly explains: "Students must be encouraged, especially those who have learning disabilities." Such has been the case for Denis, a 7-year-old boy from a family with limited resources who was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
In 2018, Yerlin, Denis's mother, went to the Fabretto Education Center in Esteli, Nicaragua, to seek help for her son. "At school, Denis suffered from abuse. The students were afraid of him, and the teachers constantly scolded him because they did not understand ADHD," recalls the mother. But thanks to the professional support received at Fabretto, in a short time, Denis began to show significant progress and to smile as he had rarely done before.
At Fabretto, Denis received psychological therapy and his teacher, Carelia, has played a critical role in preparing him to become a part of a regular classroom. The teacher has received training in play-based educational methodologies for primary education students, similar to Montessori. Through playful activities, children have managed to transform from mere recipients of information to protagonists of their own learning. "Less than a year ago, Denis did not know how to read or write. Today, he is an outstanding student and loves to visit the center's library frequently," explains the elementary school teacher.
Carelia has taught the rest of the students to serve as support for Denis. Through social reinforcements such as hugs, praises, or any other manifestation of affection, they manifest to him how well he has acted. "Children with hyperactivity have to be treated with patience; here [at Fabretto] we are convinced that the best solution to any problem is love."
Denis's mother, sister, and grandmother have also learned the value of affection in the child's recovery and development. "Before, my daughter and I cried because we did not understand what was happening to Denis. We did not know how to deal with him, and that's why we scolded him all the time. But Fabretto's staff has instilled in us the patience and techniques we need to help him with his studies at home," says his grandmother, Rosa.
Denis has shown not only great progress in his social, emotional, and educational skills but also a significant change in his nutritional state. "Before in his most critical moments, he could not eat, but now, he remains at the table and finishes his entire meal calmly," says his mother, Yerlin.
Thanks to the joint work between the family and the school, today, Denis can identify the critical moments of hyperactivity on his own and then put into practice self-control techniques. "When Denis is very restless, he performs breathing exercises on his own and asks for permission to leave the classroom to walk for a bit," explains his teacher, Carelia.
At Fabretto, we are convinced that through quality personalized education, and by working hand in hand with all the members of the community, we can create environments where children like Denis can truly thrive. Thanks to people like you, we can continue to support children like Denis.

"...their problems are therefore those of the Maori people..."
It has been clear for a long time that a disproportionate number of children who are reported to CYF, have a substantiated finding of abuse or neglect against their parent or caregiver, or end up in state care are Maori. But I haven't seen the statistics put in these terms before (or if I have I've forgotten):
"...35 per cent of all Maori children are notified to CYF before age 5, compared with 11 per cent of non-Maori children."
This is from the 'interim' report by the group led by Paula Rebstock tasked with examining CYF.
Statistics relating to ethnicity are increasingly redundant as more and more New Zealand-born children report (or their parents report) more than 1, 2, or even 3 ethnicities.
The above finding is particularly intriguing because many Maori children who also have Pacific Island, NZ European, Asian, etc parentage will be counted as Maori because of the hierarchical system government uses.
From a Families Commission report 2004:
"...if a person reports more than one ethnic identity they will be counted only once, in the following priority order: Māori, Pacific peoples, Asian, other, European."
(Yes, some reporting systems take account of multiple ethnicities leading to annoying and meaningless totals for the purposes of research, and reliance on self-identification produces Maori as the overriding ethnicity anyway.)
I came across a passage (not on-line) the other day that crystallizes the problem.
The children of a mixed marriage are also usually very readily accepted by their grandparents, both Maori and Pakeha. In the wider community such children are nearly always looked on as Maori if their ancestry is at all obvious (the term 'half-caste' seems to be used less now than formerly), and their problems are therefore those of the Maori people… Harre 1968
I have been reading up on mixed marriages/partnerships and the rate of partnering between Maori and non-Maori is very high especially when compared to other races in other countries.
Personally I think it's a good thing but when it comes to problems with offspring it has to be said the contributing ethnicity who is not Maori gets of scot free when it comes to the reporting of ethnic contribution.
Anti-smacking law is bad law
The anti-smacking law has failed to reduce the abuse and neglect of children. It was never going to make a difference because lawless people don't give a damn. In fact normally law-abiding people don't give a fig for it either. On a recent plane trip, the row in front of me contained a mother and two youngsters one of whom was being stroppy. I didn't see what the child did (to her sibling I think) but what I did hear was the mother, having handled the situation saying to the daughter, "I'm sorry if I tapped you too hard but...." She followed the law by changing the language.
Many people think we should just get over it and get on with it. But this report highlights that the anti-smacking law, which is being policed, may actually be making the situation worse.
It's bad law. I've listened to people speak who have been criminalised by it and their experiences have been harrowing.

US politics - contrasting views
I noticed two editorials that related this morning. First the DomPost lamenting the bizarrenness of US politics but citing Republican candidates only. Not a Democrat in sight. (Oh, and typically the writer manages to have a crack at ACT in the process).
American politics may seem grotesque to New Zealanders. We have reckless demagogue politicians; but we don't have anyone as bizarrely irrational as Donald Trump.
We have narrow and fanatical politicians, but no-one as bigoted or as nasty as Ted Cruz. We have ignorant and foolish politicians, but none as breathtakingly weird as Ben Carson.
Then a piece by a very angry American taking extreme umbrage at front-running Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton.
Hillary Rodham Clinton is not qualified to be president of the United States of America, because she doesn't know what the United States of America are. Terry Shumaker, former U.S. ambassador to Trinidad (I wonder what that gig cost him) and current abject minion in the service of Mrs. Clinton, quotes Herself telling an audience in New Hampshire: "Service is the rent we pay for living in this great country." There is a very old English word for people who are required to perform service as a rent for their existence, and that word is serf. Serfdom is a form of bondage.
Agree or not, at least the second writer has zest for his topic. And note he identifies himself thereby owning his thoughts unlike the DomPost editorialist.
I wonder if the US political process is considered "grotesque" simply because too many commentators in this country have become overwhelmed by political correctness allowing it too censor and comfortably numb their intellects?
Quite different pictures
The NZ Hearld has a headline, New Zealand now much safer for children as injury cases plunge.
There must have been data availability restraints for the black and blue lines on the graph below because the writer could have taken the red line to 2012 showing even greater overall improvement.
Below the NZ Herald graph is the result of querying the NZ Injury Query System. The death rate per 100,000 children from 'unintentional injury' dropped to 6.5 by 2012. I went on to query fatalities from 'all intents' and have graphed the difference. That produces a slightly different picture.
Seymour vs Ardern is going to be entertaining
At the supermarket checkout this afternoon I spotted the header on the Sunday Star Times heralding two new columnists - David Seymour and Jacinda Ardern. Very nice. I expect they'll be given (or agree together) a subject each week.
Then I got an e-mail alert that Ardern had tweeted the link so took a look.
Interesting. It appears David has taken on the subject and Jacinda has responded. I assume next week it'll reverse.
This format will make for much more entertainment.
Here's the first installment .
OPINION: Like almost all Kiwis I have always avoided Waitangi on the big day. Images of protesters, crying prime ministers, and actual mud-slinging are enough to put most people off. If you've ever been in Sydney for Australia Day, you'll know how much better our national day could be.
But Parliament obliges me to be here, so I'm writing this from an old Paihia motel (my parliamentary colleagues had booked out the Waitangi Copthorne, but that's another story).
The trouble this time is the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement, or TPPA. People oppose it for the same reason people used to have mullets – fashion, not logic. Being of Ngāpuhi descent myself, it's been a real struggle to understand why local Maori are protesting a trade agreement.
If an iwi is going to host representatives of the Crown to symbolise this 176-year-old relationship, why not rotate the host iwi and location?
The fact is, many colonial-era Maori were very entrepreneurial, and took ready advantage of the more secure property rights provided by the Treaty – more secure than being invaded by nearby tribes as happened through the musket war period around 1820 to 1840. One of the many important rights the Treaty gave was access to sea lanes protected by the most powerful navy on the planet.
I've been reading Hazel Petrie's Chiefs of Industry. It tells the story of colonial-era Maori such as Te Hemara Tauhia. In the 1850s he built a sawmill in the north and charged Pakeha to mill their timber.
Then he realised they were making money off the shipping so he commissioned a 20-tonne ship to move it, too. That guy would have favoured signing the TPPA.
He was not unusual. As another author summed up, colonial Maori "were able to leverage European technologies to build remarkable trading relationships around the world as well as forcing the world's most powerful empire into a stalemate."
Back up here at Waitangi Day 2016 the usual suspects (about 0.01 per cent of the population) have made the elected prime minister of New Zealand stay away and denied all of us a national day we can enjoy because they don't like the TPPA. It got me thinking.
The Treaty was not signed just at Waitangi. It went on tour and was signed by Chiefs all over the country. Waitangi is just the place it was signed first.
It's never been clear why one iwi gets to monopolise the celebrations, but this year's circus has made it especially unclear. The disruptors don't know much about trade or even their own history of trade.
Even the device that one protester threw at Steven Joyce probably entered the country under the China FTA.
If an iwi is going to host representatives of the Crown to symbolise this 176-year-old relationship, why not rotate the host iwi and location? It could be in a different place each year, following the actual path that the Treaty took during 1840.
Ngāpuhi have denied the whole country a proud national day just one time too many. It is time to take this show on the road. There were 20-odd signing locations so it'll come back around in 2036. Estimates are that the TPPA will be adding an extra $3 billion to our economy every year by then.
And a bit of competition among locations might also help to lift standards of behaviour, bringing some dignity and joy back to this historic occasion.
Jacinda Ardern responds
Australia Day? Are you kidding? That is the last place we should be looking for a model of race relations, let alone a national day of celebration – unless you're into drunken, casual racism.
I am sorry you felt a sense of duty rather than any desire to be at Waitangi, David. Or that your auto lodge didn't meet your expectations.
But your interpretation of what the pilgrimage to this place symbolises is just plain wrong. It's not about the dominance of any one iwi as you claim, it's about recognising the place where the treaty - and the relationship between Maori and the crown, all began, and what that relationship means now.
And that's what makes your argument so ironic. You believe that moving around the country every year, presumably having the talks and debate we have at Waitangi, would be a better way to mark our national day. And yet this is the very thing that caused the difficulties this year - the fact the government didn't talk, didn't debate, an agreement that they signed on behalf of New Zealand, and Maori - the TPPA.
I hand on heart believe in free trade, and so does my party. But we also know that this agreement was about more than trade, and it was these elements of the agreement that the government should have discussed openly- they didn't.
There is no denying that there have been ups and downs over the years at Waitangi, but it remains a place for open debate and dialogue. That's worth celebrating.
Gang children - growing the problem
"The proportion of gang members and affiliates in New Zealand's prison population has grown. The 2003 Department of Corrections census of prison inmates showed that gang members and affiliates accounted for 11.5 percent of the sentenced inmates. Over two thirds of those inmates belonged to either the Mongrel Mob or Black Power gangs. As of April 2013, gang members and affiliates comprised over 30 percent of inmates, with over 10 percent of the prison population belonging to the Mongrel Mob. Forty-six percent of prisoners under the age of 19 have gang affiliations."
"The literature suggests that single-faceted approaches are unlikely to be effective in dealing with gang issues. Suppression in particular has been criticised as largely ineffective in reducing involvement in gangs and offending.
In 2008, the Ministry of Social Development noted that:
A sole suppression strategy is costly…and gains are short term. Suppression has proven the least successful of all interventions and can have a negative impact as members convert stigmatisation into a symbol of status. Further … a reliance on the Police as public commentators on gang issues can be problematic, as many have narrow views of gangs and criminality, which may then be perpetuated
through the media leading to simplified notions about how best to respond.
Black Power member Denis O'Reilly similarly notes: "You have got to have an integrated response. But if the only weapon you have is a hammer then everything looks like a nail".
Moreover, suppressing and imprisoning gang members can exacerbate the problem by providing gangs the opportunity to recruit new members in prisons, dominate prison culture and run criminal activities within prisons such as contraband trading. Prisons are a major recruiting ground for the largest ethnic gang in New Zealand – the Mongrel Mob – and a Mob chapter was formed in Auckland Maximum Security Prison in the late 1970s."
"...their problems are therefore those of the Maor...

Lacina Traoré granted work permit for move to Everton; loan fee yet to be agreed
Premier League side Everton have confirmed that AS Monaco striker Lacina Traoré has been granted a work permit with a view to signing the player on loan until the end of the season.
The player had a medical yesterday and Everton are understood not to be worried about the player's hamstring niggle. He should make a full recovery from that injury by the end of next week, if sources close to the player are to be believed.
All that remains is for AS Monaco and Everton to agree the specifics of the loan deal. The fee has yet to be agreed, although Football News understands this evening that the two parties are nearing that ambition.
It seems to be about finding the balance between the amount of wages that Everton will be forced to pay as well as the heftiness of the straight fee that AS Monaco are currently demanding.

Salty story . . . New book extols country ham's heritage
By: Ray Bowman
Kentuckians like their country ham.
For conformation look no further than the KFB Country Ham Breakfast at the State Fair, where well over a thousand guests enjoy the famous salted pork and businesses spend hundreds of thousands of dollars for the blue ribbon winner.
Country ham also has a State Fair spotlight over in Cloverville, where 4-H members have their prized pig parts on display and also compete to see who can present the best three to five minute speech on preparation of a country ham.
The honored yet humble epicurean enigma also warrants three of its own festivals each year; Marion County Ham Days in Lebanon, the Trigg County Country Ham Festival in Cadiz, and the Spring Hill Country Ham Festival in Spring Hill, TN.
It's a big deal. But how did it get that way?
Food writer Steve Coomes of Oldham County provides some insight in his latest book, Country Ham: A Southern Tradition of Hogs, Salt & Smoke.
The Kentucky native spent 11 years in restaurant operations before leaving the kitchen to write about food.
"It was a way of life for some folks," Coomes reflects on the culture of hog killing. "It wasn't just the pursuit of some gourmet ingredient like it is for me."
Coomes' mother grew up in Graves County, where her family butchered hogs around Thanksgiving each year for their own use. "It was the mark of a good year if you had hogs to slaughter."
"Country ham is what sustained working class families for many generations, especially those in the upper South," Coomes quotes John T. Edge, director of the Southern Folkways Alliance, an institute of the Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi. "Consumers still identify with the roots of that food as very much a subsistence activity, but that's not a bad thing. It's part of the South's rich history."
A dozen "Masters of the Craft" headquartered in four states are profiled in Coomes' book. They hail from Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia and range in size from Harper's Country Hams in Clinton that cranks out some 200,000 units per year, to the award-winning Scott Hams of Greenville whose annual output is about 4,000 hams. What ties all these enterprises together is the history and tradition that Edge speaks of. Each recipe and process is unique, but they all stay very close to the methods that have been passed down for generations.
Hobbyists and home curers can benefit from the book's chapter on Making Your Own Country Ham, but Coomes says observing the process is part and parcel of learning the mysteries and the mechanics of doing it yourself.
The final portion of the book is devoted to recipes for both the featured ham and many of the side dishes that enhance the dining experience. They have been, according to Coomes, "shared by a host of generous ham curers, chefs and home cooks."
Whether a gourmet delight prepared by a famous chef or the center of the plate at a hearty country breakfast, country ham is still a star performer after all these years.

Criminal charges brought against Ranbaxy (UK) ltd
Mumbai, Apr 05: UK's serious fraud office (SFO) will soon bring criminal offence charges against the Ranbaxy Laboratories' operations in the United Kingdom - Ranbaxy UK Limited (RUKL) - the company informed the BSE today.
Charges against RUKL relates to alleged anti-competitive conduct in connection with the supply of penicillin-based antibiotics between 1996 and 2000. Four other companies would also be charged, the company release said.
RUKL has, however, not yet been informed of the substance of the allegation against it, nor the evidence upon which they are based, therefore it is not in position to comment, the release said, adding that the company is not aware of any wrongdoing.
The current operation of RUKL, however, remains unaffected by these developments.

Is there a global database of all products with EAN 13 barcodes?
EAN 13 is an international system. Is there an API or database that contains all items that have these barcodes? Like all food, goods you can buy in a regular convenience store. Is there a global open database for this?

(Can't post an answer, so a comment.) I've tried most of the readily accessible suggestions below (after my own futile attempts brought me here), and seeing that nothing even remotely worked, I can now attest that the best way of getting at least some sort of relevant answers (instead of nothing), is merely Googling up the EAN. 100% success rate for my tries. Unstructured, but at least the information is there to process further, which I prefer to the structured DBs that return "no match". – Sz. Jan 20 '18 at 15:57
The Open Product Data project is a comprehensive source for open barcode data. As of May 2014, they have close to a million products in their database. The data is accessible online, through an Android app (source code), and available for download under the Open Data Commons Open Database License (ODbL).

In short, no, there is no comprehensive open database of EAN 13 barcodes. I worked on a project that required UPC information and I found out that this data is not only hard to get, but what is there is often incomplete or poorly formed. I subscribed to SimpleUPC's API service to do some testing on matching products to parent companies. Manufacturer names weren't uniform, for example, so identifying all of the Procter & Gamble products wasn't that straightforward. If I recall correctly, I found misspellings of manufacturer names. I'm pretty certain these were upstream issues (UPC providers), not a problem with SimpleUPC's service.
As Megan linked to, the GEPIR registry on the GS1 will allow you to search, but is not bulk downloadable nor do they provide an API. There is an API version of the GS1 US GEPIR database called GS1 US Data Hub (www.gs1us.org/datahub). It also offers an option to match a list of UPCs that you may have to their database.The GS1 is the international association that governs the EAN 13 and UPC standards. They do not provide the EAN 13 information in a machine readable format, and I doubt that have an interest in doing so.
There are companies like SimpleUPC that sell access to a slice of UPC data (groceries, for example) they collect through partnerships with larger companies. Even then, the information isn't likely to be uniform or complete.

Can you recommend a trusted authorized UPC/EAN code reseller? – sybind Jul 15 '15 at 21:30
Short answer, no.
Long answer - there are attempts at creating a "global" or should I say "universal" UPC database and there are some vendors with large UPC databases (and even those who provide API access), but none of them are hardly "universal".
This is a problem that I have personally been grappling with. At work I manage a large number of SKUs (in the many millions). Many of them which have UPC information. One of the biggest pain points has been that we have been looking to match those UPC data with a centralized product database and pull out structured metadata for those products.
We have resorted to using a commercial vendor via API (https://semantics3.com/) - to match the ones in which they have an entry for (we get about ~60-70% match rate depending on the category).
The rest we just try to contact the merchant directly or try googling around (I once had an intern who did this for me).
For those who may be interested, here is an interesting blog post that talks in detail about the lack of universality amongst UPC codes: https://medium.com/@Semantics3/why-the-u-in-upc-doesnt-mean-universal-a1a675eea0ea

There are a number of routes that you could take depending on the scope and requirements of your project. I recommend using Amazon's Product Affiliate API, however there are a few other options available as well.
Free with Terms & Conditions
Amazon offers a comprehensive database of product information. This API is available through their affiliate program. The information supplied via this API contains much more information as most sellers are required to populate this information. While this information does not cost money, be sure to read through their terms of service.
https://affiliate-program.amazon.com
If you want an accurate and comprehensive database of products that can be looked up by UPC or EAN, you can use GS1 US. This organization is responsible for distributing and maintaining UPC and EAN codes for products in the US. While this information is very accurate, this data is NOT free and requires a paid subscription.
https://www.gs1us.org/tools/gs1-company-database-gepir
A final solution involves scraping content off product database providers over the web. There are a number of online databases that may provide more information than the options above. Products can be programmatically retrieved by UPC or EAN using the examples below. Again, be careful not to break any terms of service with these approaches as well.

We are running into an issue similar to the one described in http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2013-12/0171.shtml when performing some sync merges. svn issues error "E195016: Reintegrate can only be used if revisions…" but this isn't a reintegrate merge. When this happens, the only work around appears to be to specify the revision range to merge explicitly, which is very confusing and error prone for less experienced users.

Watchmen's Tulsa Opening Is a Chilling Reminder of a Horrifying Moment in American History
The 1921 Tulsa Massacre is considered our country's "worst incident of racial violence."
By Matt Miller
HBO's Watchmen opens in 1921 during the Tulsa Race Massacre, a deeply disturbing real stain on American history, where, on May 31, 1921, a mob of white people attacked a black community. We first see a young boy watching a silent news reel as the violence is breaking out around a theater. He's swept away from the violence by his mother and father and later comes back at the end of the first episode. We see men in KKK white firing guns at helpless men and women. We see planes actually dropping bombs on this small community. It's chilling, and although Watchmen takes place in an alt-history, this event actually took place.
Do I Need to Read Watchmen Before the Show?
The Watchmen Comic Ending, Explained
Damon Lindelof Takes Us Inside Watchmen
The massacre is known as the "worst incident of racial violence" in American history. Hundreds of people were violently murdered during the Tulsa Race Massacre, but the exact body count is unknown. And some people watching this fictionalized version might not even know it ever happened, as "news reports were largely squelched, despite the fact that hundreds of people were killed and thousands left homeless." As NPR reported last year, the event is also not often taught in schools:
Before the events in May of 1921, the Greenwood district of Tulsa was a predominately African-American neighborhood, known for its thriving middle-class. The main strip, Greenwood Avenue, was lined with successful black-owned businesses. Greenwood may have been a haven for African-Americans, but the state of Oklahoma had strict laws limiting the rights of black people. Schools, hospitals, trains, stores, restaurants, even public phone booths were segregated and miscegenation was a felony. Lynchings were not uncommon and by 1920, the Ku Klux Klan was reemerging in the state.
When Dick Rowland, a young black man, was accused of assaulting a young white woman in an elevator in May 1921, things escalated quickly. He was arrested and word spread that white mobs were headed to the courthouse, intending to lynch him. The mobs were met by a group of armed black men, many of whom were World War I veterans. After a confrontation, shots were fired, and thus began a day-long assault on Greenwood. In less than 24 hours, the white mobs destroyed more than 1,000 homes and businesses. They set fire to schools, churches, libraries, and movie theaters, leveling entire city blocks.
In Watchmen's opening, we see planes dropping bombs on what was known at the time as Black Wall Street. This also actually happened, according to reports. Tulsa is considered to be the first city in the United States to be bombed from the air.
For a show that confronts the centuries of racism in the U.S., this opening serves as a chilling reminder that white supremacy is a villain this country has always been fighting. This is also an important introduction to the alt-history in which Watchmen takes place. Major real U.S. events did take place in the Watchmen universe, but they are slightly different—like the U.S. winning the Vietnam war—and changed by the existence of Doctor Manhattan.
"In order for this to be Watchmen, we have to start with an unsolvable problem, a problem that the most well-intentioned superheroes and vigilantes actually cannot solve," Damon Lindelof told me of the thesis at the heart of his series. "And now we're in 2019 instead of the '80s, where it feels like you can't tell a story about America in any kind of real, historical context that doesn't talk about race."
This opening scene makes that very clear from the beginning. And what's interesting, is in the end of the episode, the little boy in the beginning presumably makes a return. When Chief Judd Crawford is found hanging from the tree, the only person near the crime scene is the old man in the wheelchair who asked Regina King's Angela Abar if she thought he could lift 200 pounds. As the camera pans up to show Crawford's hanging body, we can briefly see the "Watch over this boy" note written in the beginning for the child who fled the Tulsa Race Massacre in the opening scene. It seems like this show is already showing us how the lingering effects of racial violence and greater white supremacy in America still echo in horrible ways a hundred years later.

The Rebrand Effect, Big Duck's first ebook, looks at the impact rebranding has on nonprofits based on a survey completed by over 350 nonprofit leaders from across the country. The ebook needed to stay true to the Big Duck aesthetic without feeling so heavily branded that other organizations couldn't adopt and present the information as needed. Inspired by gauges and the idea of acceleration, I created a system of data visualizations that interpreted the findings in a simplified way, making the content approachable and easy to digest. In addition to the ebook, I developed infographics, share graphics, and other marketing materials to promote the ebook and share its findings.

Jordanian al Qaeda operative killed in Afghanistan
By Bill Roggio | December 20, 2010 | [email protected] | @billroggio
An al Qaeda operative who was an administrator of an online jihadist forum has been killed by US forces in Afghanistan.
The slain operative, Haythem bin Mohammed al Khayat, a Jordanian better known as Abu Kandahar al Zarqawi, was an administrator at the jihadist Al Hesbah forum. According to Flashpoint Partners, a consulting firm that monitors jihadist media, he was also an associate of Abu Dujanah al Khurasani, the suicide bomber who carried out the attack at Combat Outpost Chapman in Khost province on Dec. 30, 2009, that killed seven CIA operatives and a Jordanian intelligence officer.
In September 2009, Khurasani had announced "the good news about the arrival here [in Afghanistan] of your brother Abu Kandahar" in a statement released on jihadist forums, Flashpoint Partners reported. Several months later, in an April 2010 interview with the Global Islamic Media Front , Abu Kandahar "urged residents of the Levant to 'focus on the wars of assassinations, snipers and explosives.'"
Abu Kandahar was a member of an al Qaeda network that included Khurasani, a Jordanian and a longtime internet jihadi who had enticed the CIA with promises of being able to produce Ayman al Zawahiri, al Qaeda's second in command. Khurasani had been recruited by Jordanian intelligence to inform on al Qaeda's leadership circles, but instead plotted to kill CIA agents in Afghanistan.
Other members of the network included Abu Abdulrahman al Qahtani, a veteran jihadist from Yemen; Ghazwan al Yemeni, a top operative in al Qaeda's external operations network who aided in the attack at Combat Outpost Chapman; and Abu Dujanah al Sanaani, a Yemeni and an Internet jihadist who is known to have operated the Al Balagh Media Center and interviewed Siraj Haqqani. Over the past several months, Qahtani, Ghazwan, and Sanaani have all been killed during fighting and Predator strikes along the Afghan-Pakistani border.
"This network includes skilled bombmakers, 'martyrdom" operatives, and senior commanders tightly ensconced with al Qaeda's top leadership in the rugged terrain surrounding the Pakistan-Afghanistan border," Flashpoint Partners reported on Dec. 12. With the death of Abu Kandahar, 10 of the 14 members of this network have been killed.
Targeting al Qaeda in Afghanistan
The US military routinely targets and kills al Qaeda commanders and operatives in Afghanistan. Al Qaeda often releases propaganda statements announcing their deaths. In late October, al Qaeda announced the deaths of five veteran jihadist commanders. Last week, a jihadist forum announced the death of Mahmud Abu Rideh, a Palestinian who had been detained in the United Kingdom for four years.
In late September, the International Security Assistance force announced the deaths of two foreign al Qaeda operatives: a senior al Qaeda leader from Saudi Arabia named Abdallah Umar al Qurayshi, and an explosives expert named Abu Atta al Kuwaiti. Both were killed in a US airstrike in Kunar province. Several "Arabic foreign fighters" were also said to have been killed in the same strike. Sa'ad Mohammad al Shahri, a longtime jihadist and the son of a retired Saudi colonel, is thought to have been among them. Since the beginning of 2010, scores of al Qaeda operatives have been killed in US military operations in Afghanistan.
Al Qaeda's extensive reach in Afghanistan is documented not only by al Qaeda's propaganda statements, but in the body of press releases issued in recent years by the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan. Looking at press releases dating back to March 2007, The Long War Journal has been able to detect the presence of al Qaeda and affiliated groups such as the Lashkar-e-Taiba and the Islamic Jihad Union in 62 different districts in 19 of Afghanistan's 34 provinces.
This picture of an extensive al Qaeda presence in Afghanistan contradicts statements made by top Obama administration intelligence officials, including CIA Director Leon Panetta and National Counterterrorism Center Director Michael Leiter. Last spring, Panetta and Leiter claimed that only 50 to 100 al Qaeda operatives are active in Afghanistan. Administration officials have since ceased making such claims.

As Peru's main tourist centre, the city's sights are well documented and are covered by the Cusco Tourist Ticket (Boleto Turístico). Here are my personal favourites from 20 years of introducing trekkers to Cusco.
Particularly rewarding if you can catch an early-morning service, but at any time for the painting of Christ and his disciples enjoying a guinea pig at the Last Supper.
An awe-inspiring example of exquisite Inca stonework (the Temple of the Sun) topped by a Spanish colonial church, Santa Domingo.
This is my favourite religious building in Cusco. From the outside its adobe façade looks unremarkable but inside is some of the best wood carving you will see in Peru. Take a close look at the cherubs holding up the weight of the pulpit. The artistry is marvellous but the physiological knowledge less so – try that position yourself!
Most interesting for its crypt housing a macabre display of skulls and bones.
The best of the museums. An impressive and somewhat gruesome collection of mummies and Inca artefacts. Helps put the Inca culture into perspective.
