One of those seminal artists known as the YBAs whose star ascended at the same point of time as St. JOHN, Douglas' t-shirt expresses his preoccupations with identity and with mental and physical states, depicting his back as a canvas for his own blood. The image echoes St. JOHN's own celebration and respect for the stuff of life and plays with expectation; seemingly a regular St. JOHN t-shirt from the front, with the shock of Douglas' back reproduced across the back of the wearer.
To mark the occasion of St. JOHN's 25th anniversary we have commissioned three artists, who have each played a significant part in the life of the restaurant, to design three t-shirts according to their styles, whims and interpretation of St. JOHN. Printed in an extremely limited run of just 200.
Fergus remembers "all those years ago, after the initial flurry of excitement that comes with a new restaurant it could be pretty bleak. We used to stand outside and watch tumbleweed roll down St. John Street – one night I even thought I saw the northern lights. But somehow an extraordinary crew of artists gravitated towards us, perhaps it was the art-free walls that made them feel at ease, and they have stuck with us. Then others started coming too. It is thanks to all of them that we are here. We are honoured."
That St. JOHN is still going from strength to strength after 25 years is as much testament to the faith of those first customers, as to the faith and vision of co-founders Fergus Henderson and Trevor Gulliver. These t-shirts are a celebration of the vital relationships which are the lifeblood of St. JOHN.

Government, it seems, is no match for bankers and executives who run the world's most powerful financial institutions. The world got another reminder of this on Wednesday when Stephen Hester, Chief Executive of Royal Bank of Scotland, abruptly tendered his resignation. The news might have slammed Hester as another wealthy banker too arrogant to work under government supervision. Instead, Hester left his post like a hero, with lavish praise from the folks who fired him and the admiration of shareholders.
News of his departure sent the stock down, triggered headlines about bereft employee morale, and prompted a Treasury minister to address the UK's House of Commons with a statement full of hyperbole about Hester's success at getting the job done.
THE PR VERDICT: "D" (PR Problematic) for the UK government for badly mishandling an announcement with a communications strategy that begs many questions.
THE PR TAKEAWAY: Before firing, have a replacement lined up, or suffer the consequences. The RBS privatization has a chance to succeed, but the government just raised its cost of capital unnecessarily by showing the current CEO the door, with no apparent plan for replacement. Once the press statements were finalized and the polite, politic resignation letter released, Hester told the truth that he'd wanted to stay after all. While he got to appear as though he'd orchestrated an effective career transition, Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne et al were left holding a bag of empty words. Next time, think before you pink slip.

Sage is an herb famous for its culinary and healing properties. It has lance-shaped leaves that are grayish green in color with a silvery bloom covering. It is available fresh, dried, or in ground powdered form. The oils and tannins in sage have astringent, antiseptic, and irritant properties. It is therefore an important herb in medications for mouth sores, mouth ulcers, and sore throat medications. Sage is used to alleviate respiratory infection, nasal congestion, coughs, tonsillitis and sore throats. It helps with indigestion and with the liver. It can help to alleviate insomnia, bleeding gums and to remove plaque. Sage is from the mint family, and has a slightly bitter to peppery flavor making it perfect for soups, roasts, stuffings and sauces. It should however be used with discretion because it may overpower the flavor of the dish. Sage and poultry are typical combinations, but don't overlook it as an ingredient in a fresh tomato sauce or fried and crumbled on top of a butternut filled ravioli.

History: Salvia officinalis has been used since ancient times for warding off evil, snakebites, increasing women's fertility, and more. The Romans likely introduced it to Europe from Egypt as a medicinal herb. Theophrastus wrote about two different sages, a wild undershrub he called sphakos, and a similar cultivated plant he called elelisphakos. Pliny the Elder said that the latter plant was called "Salvia" by the Romans, and used as a diuretic, a local anesthetic for the skin, a styptic, and for other uses. Charlemagne recommended the plant for cultivation in the early Middle Ages and during the Carolingian Empire it was cultivated in monastery gardens. Walafrid Strabo described it in his poem Hortulus as having a sweet scent and being useful for many human ailments—he went back to the Greek root for the name and called it Lelifagus. The plant had a high reputation throughout the Middle Ages, with many sayings referring to its healing properties and value. It was sometimes called S. salvatrix (Sage the Savior), and was one of the ingredients of Four Thieves Vinegar, a blend of herbs which was supposed to ward off the plague. Dioscorides, Pliny, and Galen all recommended sage as a diuretic, hemostatic, emmenagogue, and tonic.

Prudential Standard GPS 410
Transfer and Amalgamation of Insurance Business for General Insurers
Objectives and key requirements of this Prudential Standard
This Prudential Standard deals with the transfer or amalgamation of insurance business of a general insurer.
Insurers transferring or amalgamating insurance business in accordance with the Act are subject to procedural requirements set out in the Act and this Standard. These requirements are designed to ensure that affected policyholders, and other interested members of the public, are informed about any such transfer or amalgamation, are given accurate information about it, and are provided with the opportunity to obtain more detailed particulars if they wish to do so.
The key requirements of the Act and this Prudential Standard are:
· An insurer cannot make an application to the Court for confirmation of a scheme of transfer or amalgamation unless, amongst other things, an insurer provides a copy of the scheme and any actuarial reports on which the scheme is based to APRA.
· Prior to making an application to the Court, and with APRA's approval, the insurer must also publish a notice of intention to make the application in the Government Gazette and relevant newspapers.
· An application to the Court for confirmation of a scheme cannot be made unless, amongst other things, a summary of the scheme, approved by APRA (the approved summary), has been given to every affected policyholder. A copy of the scheme must also be available for public inspection.
· An insurer to which insurance business is transferred or amalgamated must give APRA a range of documents after the Courts have approved the scheme, including a statement of the nature and terms of the transfer or amalgamation, and the Court order confirming the scheme.
Details on these requirements are contained below.
Prudential Standard
1. This Prudential Standard, made under section 32 of the Insurance Act 1973 (the Act), applies to all general insurers authorised under the Act.
2. A transfer or amalgamation of insurance business can occur only under a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court (unless it is undertaken in response to a direction from the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA)[1]). This Prudential Standard sets out specific requirements in relation to documentation, notification, public inspection and an application to the Court.
3. In addition, any transfer or amalgamation of insurance business is subject to the provisions of the Insurance Acquisitions and Takeovers Act 1991 (IATA). The IATA requires compulsory notification of proposals involving the acquisition of any or all of the interests, rights or benefits of an insurer under contracts of insurance where that transfer amounts to 15% or more of the transferring insurer's premiums or outstanding claims liabilities.
Documents to be Provided to APRA Prior to an Application Being Made to the Court[2]
4. An application to the Court for confirmation of a scheme cannot be made unless, amongst other things, an insurer provides a copy of the scheme and any actuarial reports on which the scheme is based to APRA.[3]
5. These documents must be provided to APRA before:
(a) the relevant notice of intention to apply to the Court for confirmation of the scheme is published;[4] and
(b) the summary of the scheme (approved by APRA) has been given to each affected policyholder.[5]
6. In practice, the documents will need to be given to APRA before APRA can approve the summary of the scheme, and it is expected that companies will discuss their intentions with APRA at the earliest opportunity.
Notification Requirements[6]
7. An application to the Court for confirmation of a scheme cannot be made unless, amongst other things, a notice of intention to make the application has been published by the insurer.
8. Before publishing a notice of intention an insurer must first secure APRA's approval of the summary of the scheme.[7]
9. The insurer must publish the notice of intention in a form approved by APRA:
(a) in the Government Gazette; and
(b) in one or more newspapers, approved by APRA, circulating in each State and Territory in which an affected policyholder resides.
10. The notice must, at a minimum:
(a) state the places, dates and times that an affected policyholder may obtain a copy of the scheme and any associated documentation; and
(b) give the address of each place at which a copy of the scheme and any associated documentation may be obtained.
11. The notice must be published before the scheme is released for public inspection under paragraph 16.
Approved Summary[8]
12. An application to the Court for confirmation of a scheme cannot be made unless, amongst other things, a summary of the scheme, approved by APRA (the approved summary), has been given to every affected policyholder.
13. The approved summary need not be a stand-alone document and the required information may be included in a document, sent directly to the policyholder, that contains other information in relation to the transfer, provided that the required information is prominently featured so that it is obvious to the policyholder.
14. The format and content of the approved summary will depend on the circumstances of the transfer, however, the insurer should, at a minimum, advise affected policyholders:
(a) that the insurer proposes to transfer the policyholder's policy or policies to another insurer, on or after a specified date;
(b) of the full name and contact details of the other insurer;
(c) of the effect of the transfer (this explanation may be brief and may, for example, explain that from the date of the transfer all rights and liabilities under the policies will be transferred to the other insurer, so that premiums will have to be paid to, and claims will have to be lodged with, that insurer);
(d) of any action the policyholder will need to take before or as a result of the transfer (for example, any changes in arrangements relating to paying premiums or lodging claims);
(e) if the policyholder does not need to take any action before or as a result of the transfer - advise the policyholder accordingly;
(f) how the policyholder can obtain further information and inspect relevant documents as may be available for public inspection; and
(g) that the policyholder has the right to attend the Federal Court.
15. The approved summary must be sent to affected policyholders before the scheme is released for public inspection under paragraph 16.
Public Inspection[9]
16. A copy of the scheme must be open for public inspection from 9.00 a.m. until 5.00 p.m. every day (except weekends and public holidays), for a period of at least 15 days, at:
(a) an office of the insurer; or
(b) another location approved by APRA in writing,
in each State and Territory in which an affected policyholder resides.
Application for Confirmation of Scheme[10]
17. An application to the Court for confirmation of a scheme may be made no earlier than:
(a) the day after the day on which the period referred to in paragraph 16 ends; and
(b) unless the Court dispenses with the need for compliance with paragraph 17C(2)(c) of the Act[11] — 15 days after the approved summary of the scheme has been given to every affected policyholder under that paragraph,
whichever is the later.
Documents to be Provided to APRA after the Court has Approved a Scheme[12]
18. An insurer to which insurance business is transferred, or with whose insurance business any part of the business of another insurer is amalgamated, must give APRA the following documents:
(a) a statement of the nature and terms of the transfer or amalgamation;
(b) a certified copy of each of the following documents:
(i) the scheme providing for the transfer or amalgamation;
(ii) an actuarial report, or other report, on which the scheme, and the agreement or deed, are founded;
(iii) the agreement or deed under which the transfer or amalgamation is effected;
(iv) the Court order confirming the scheme;
(v) a statement of the assets and liabilities of each insurer associated with the transfer or amalgamation, before and after the transfer or amalgamation;

- each payment made; and
- a reasonable estimate of each payment to be made; and
(ii) stating that he or she reasonably believes that no other payment has been made, or will be made, by, or with the knowledge of, a party to the transfer or amalgamation.
19. The documents specified above must be lodged with APRA within 30 days after the transfer or amalgamation is completed.
20. An insurer may apply to APRA, in writing, before the end of the 30 day period, for an extension of the time in which to lodge the documents. If APRA believes that the insurer cannot reasonably provide the documents within 30 days, APRA must, within 14 days of receiving an application for an extension, give a written extension of up to 30 days.[13]

Man charged after allegedly setting fire to cars in Idaho parking lot
By Kaitlyn Hart, EastIdahoNews.com | Posted - Jan. 10, 2023 at 4:02 p.m.
Michael Menard, an Idaho Falls man, has been charged with a felony after reportedly setting two cars on fire in a parking lot. (Bonneville County Jail)
IDAHO FALLS — An Idaho Falls man has been charged with a felony after reportedly setting two cars on fire in a parking lot.
Michael Menard, 58, is charged with two counts of felony third-degree arson after allegedly setting two unlocked cars on fire in a business parking lot.
Idaho Falls Police were called to Western Transmission on Dec. 1 for a report that a man had set fire to two cars belonging to customers.
The owner of the business gave police security footage of the parking lot, which showed a man, later identified as Menard, "stumbling around the lot, entering several unlocked vehicles and setting fire to two of them on Nov. 25," according to court documents.
The video then showed Menard getting into a 1995 Ford F-150, where he "can be seen in the vehicle with a flashlight for several minutes," court documents state. Eventually, the documents say the surveillance footage showed a fire begin inside the vehicle.
"The fire burned for a short amount of time and then I could not observe any more fire. It appears that the fire burned and lost oxygen due to the closed doors and put itself out," a detective wrote in the report.
Officers then saw Menard walk up to a Bud Light van and enter it due to it being unlocked. Officers say they observed "a fire start inside the delivery vehicle, as the male walked to the west side of the parking lot."
According to court documents, Menard was "stumbling, and after stopping by the side of a vehicle, he walked through the parking lot and fell face first to the ground."
Menard was then "slow to get up" and "continued to stumble as he walked west through the neighboring business," according to the police report.
When officers searched the delivery van, they found "several cleaning type cloths that had been draped over the steering wheel." According to police, "this is not a normal location of cleaning cloth and were placed there to be set on fire."
While trying to locate Menard, officers visited a nearby gas station and asked the worker if they recognized a photo of Menard. The employee told officers he was a frequent customer and identified him.
On Dec. 14, officers were able to speak with one of Menard's family members, who confirmed that Menard was the man in the security footage.
The family member also told police that Menard has developmental delays and an alcohol problem, police say.
On Dec. 15, officers met with Menard and the family member. When asked by police if he draped rags over the steering wheel to set the cars on fire, Menard reportedly "nodded his head in affirmation," according to court documents.
A warrant was then issued for Menard's arrest, but he failed to appear in court for an initial appearance on Jan. 4.
A bench warrant was then issued and further scheduling has not been set. If convicted, Menard could face up to 20 years in prison and $100,000 in fines.

The Assessment and Accreditation Council advises on and facilitates matters related to:
Student learning outcomes assessment
The University's reaffirmation of accreditation through the Higher Learning Commission
In 2008, the Council was charged by the Provost to look more comprehensively at student learning outcomes assessment. Over the past eight years, the Council has been working to facilitate a campus-wide effort focusing on the assessment of student learning outcomes at both the undergraduate and graduate curricular and the co-curricular levels. As part of their early efforts, the Council developed a first-generation framework for the assessment of student learning outcomes and established an annual Learning, Teaching and Assessment Forum. Following Northwestern's 2014-15 accreditation review, the Council established a Student Learning Outcomes Assessment Subcommittee in September 2015. The subcommittee's charge is to work across schools and units to identify strategies that encourage and support assessment at the course, program, and school level. The subcommittee comprises members of the Assessment and Accreditation Council as well as additional faculty members and staff involved in assessment activities. In 2015-16, the Subcommittee developed a strategic framework for assessment within Northwestern's decentralized model to articulate an institutional strategy for student learning assessment.
Additional information about learning assessment at Northwestern, including the strategic framework and efforts of the Council and Subcommittee, can be found on the Searle Center for Advancing Teaching and Learning's Assessment of Student Learning website.
In addition, the Council serves as an advising body for the University's reaffirmation of accreditation by the Higher Learning Commission. Northwestern was recently reaffirmed for accreditation in July 2015 and will undergo its next comprehensive evaluation for reaccreditation in 2024-25. More information about Northwestern's accreditation process can be found on the University Accreditation page.

The first step is to get all the information you need about the English Tutor Program in Germany. We hope that you find everything you like to know on this website. Ayusa also provides you with written documents to ensure that you are well prepared before you start your adventure in Germany. If you have any questions at all and want to talk to one of our staff at the office, feel free to contact us via telephone or e-mail.
Once you have submitted your application, we will invite you to an interview. The interview will either be conducted by phone or Skype. Our main priority hereby is to get to know you better and answer all of your remaining questions about the program as well as to advise you about the next steps.
Now it's time for the exciting fun part – speak with our German host families! After we have established through your application and the interview that you are a great candidate for our English Tutor program, we will release your profile to interested host families. If a host family requests to speak with you, we will notify you by email beforehand. We will then also send you the application form of the host family in order for you to prepare yourself better for your upcoming chat with the family. And don't worry, we will give you lots of advice about how to clarify your questions with interested host families in order to ensure that you receive the best match possible.
You need to sign up for your comprehensive insurance package, either by yourself or we can help you with that. Since the program does not exceed 90 days, you do not need a special visa. Once you have booked your ticket to Germany, we ask you to send us the information to coordinate your arrival with the host family and our local Ayusa coordinator. Now it's time for you to pack your bags, say your "goodbyes" and get ready to take off!
You will be welcomed warmly by your host family who will pick you up from the airport. Within the first few days after your arrival your local Ayusa coordinator will get in touch with you to see how you are doing and will visit you and your host family at home within the first two weeks. We also ask one of your host parents to show you around the house and help you adjust to your new surroundings. Quite soon you will be in touch with other tutors or au pairs in your area and participate in our local meetings organized by your Ayusa coordinator. And now it's also time to get involved in your community, make new friends and explore Germany and the German way of life! Basically make the best of your stay while you're here.
The topic of returning home always comes up much too quickly! Your stay as an English tutor will fly by, and suddenly you will have to think about your departure.

Golden gift to hospice
A couple has made touching tribute to lost loved ones and donated almost £1,500 from their golden wedding anniversary gifts to St. Joseph's Hospice (Jospice).
Tommy and Nona Rayner, from Lydiate, celebrated their golden wedding anniversary last month and held a party at the Holy Rosary Social Club in Aintree with 120 of their nearest and dearest.
Sadly, seven of their closest friends and family weren't able to share in their celebrations and so Tommy and Nona decided to hold the event in their memory, asking for donations to St. Joseph's Hospice instead of gifts.
Tommy and Nona's generous friends and family donated an incredible £1,432, including gift aid, in memory of Tommy's cousin, Norma Whitehead, who passed away at the hospice in September. Also, Nona's brother, John Owens, who died in 2015; lifelong friends, Ray and Val Dougherty, who passed away from cancer last year; sisters Sue and Cathy Reilly who sadly passed away last summer; and their very dear friend, Peter Clark, who died several years ago following an accident abroad.
Tommy Rayner (72) said: "We started thinking about our golden wedding in March but we have lost so many very dear friends and family over the last year that we just couldn't comprehend celebrating the occasion without involving them all in some way."
Nona continued: "When you've been together fifty years, there's nothing we really need and so it just felt so right to ask for donations instead of gifts. Everyone was very generous as they also wanted to remember these very dear people with us and so we planned a party to celebrate their lives alongside our golden wedding anniversary.
"St. Joseph's Hospice is a wonderful place and provides such loving care to so many local people going through what we've all been through and so there was never any doubt where the money would go and we're just so pleased to be able to help."
Mike Parr, Chief Executive of St. Joseph's Hospice, said: "Tommy and Nona, and all their friends and family, have made an incredibly kind and generous donation to the hospice and we are very grateful to them for their support.
"This money will make a significant difference to the lives of local people who need specialist palliative nursing care, as well as their families who spend days, months and, sometimes, even years at the hospice with their loved ones. I'd like to thank Tommy and Nona on behalf of everyone here at the hospice for this generous gift."

AT&T's new streaming service HBO Max arrives in 2020, will be the exclusive home of 'Friends'
Darrell Etherington	@etherington / 6 months
AT&T's acquisition of HBO goes beyond just offering premium TV programming — the company revealed on Tuesday that it's going to call its new WarnerMedia streaming service HBO Max, and that this will launch next spring, with more than 10,000 hours of content available to subscribers.
It'll have Friends, dear readers, which is all that matters in the modern streaming wars, where, weirdly, services compete for dominion over a couple of decade-plus-old TV shows, including The Office and this highly unrelatable 90s NBC sitcom.
HBO Max won't offer exclusively HBO content, as you can probably tell by the availability of Friends, but The Wall Street Journal reports that the naming is meant to indicate how important HBO as a TV brand is to consumers. In other words, they're going to make the most of that purchase, even if it dilutes the actual HBO brand in the process. It's beginning to become much more clear why HBO CEO Richard Plepler resigned in February.
The new service enters a teeming field of competitors, including Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, Netflix and many more I can't even remember off the top of my head. It's also not launching until after Apple puts live its own Apple TV+ service, and Disney+ comes online in November and, per the WSJ, it'll cost "slightly more" than HBO's currently $14.99 per month pricing for Go alone.
AT&T is spending on content, however, including the high purchase price for Friends' rights, as well as development deals with a number of top talents from the film and television industry, including Reese Witherspoon, Greg Berlanti and more. Future CW shows will also reside on HBO Max instead of on Netflix, which is bad news for my habit of bingeing subpar DC superhero TV, including Arrow and The Flash.

S.O.Y. Artista is a free five-week (60 hour) summer art-training workshop for local youth (12-24 years old) from underserved communities of East Los Angeles, Boyle Heights and the greater LA area. The program's goal is expand access to art through Self Help's facilities and resources. The five-week course is taught by local artists and consists of various workshops including multi-color screen printing, mobile phone/tablet based art, stencil making, woodblock printing, etching, mono printing and photography.
We serve youth with this critical need for programming while providing positive and alternative models for creativity in an environment that is nurturing and reflective of this particular group of youth. In some cases, students use the work created in the program for admission portfolios to LA County High School of the Arts or for admission/scholarship consideration for college art programs. Our goal is to serve 60-80 local students through the summer. Classes are meant to inspire one on one instruction and provide in-depth art experiences that culturally connect youth to their community, develop critical analysis, and create stronger coalitions between community organizations, students and higher learning.

Local Leaders Disappointed, Confused Over Woodstock Cancellation
By Gabe Altieri | May 1, 2019
https://wskg.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/ga050119sp.mp3
VESTAL, NY (WSKG) — The Mayor of Watkins Glen was surprised to learn Woodstock 50 wouldn't come to his village this summer.

The concert was supposed to be held August 16-18 at the Watkins Glen International Speedway. The lineup included several genres and artists like Jay-Z, Miley Cyrus and John Fogerty.
A Billboard report this week the financial backer, Dentsu Aegis Network's Amplifi Live, pulled funds effectively cancelling it. Still, organizer Michael Lang wrote on Facebook that he will still hold the music festival.
All this has left Watkins Glen Mayor Luke Leszyk confused.
"You know, you say its going to happen and then we're told it's not going to happen. Then someone is running around saying it is going to happen," he said. "So, we just plug along and do what we're supposed to be doing on our end."
If Woodstock 50 is back on, Mayor Leszyk says Watkins Glen will be ready. However, at this point, he's preparing for no festival.
Leszyk also owns a lodging company for vacationers. He's cancelled reservations for the weekend, but adds some of those spots have already been refilled. "I'm sure some of the longer-stays, I'm sure some of the other, bigger, hotels might have had people in for weeks that were part of the promoters or part of the staff setting up up there," he explained. "They might hurt more than me."
Leszyk added the cancellation will have no effect on planned projects that benefit Watkins Glen International Speedway. This includes work on the water system.
On the state level, leaders lamented this week's news. ""It certainly would've had a substantial economic impact on our region from hotel and motel taxes to sales taxes and from economic activity," said Assemblyman Phil Palmesano, who's district includes Watkins Glen. "I think it would've been a great thing for our area and our region and certainly was disappointed with the announcement that came through."
Palmesano's senate counterpart, Tom O'Mara, called the news a "deep disappointment".
The likely cancellation comes just weeks after a delay in ticket sales for Woodstock. Reports say that was because organizers did not get a permit on time from the New York Department of Health.

Double vinyl LP pressing. 2017 release. After meeting in November 2013, Ed Tullett and Novo Amor (Ali Lacey) quickly began writing to form the basis of what is now Heiress, their full-length collaborative record, out November 10th via AllPoints. Recorded around the release of their two widely lauded collaborative singles ("Faux", 2014 and "Alps", 2016), the pair worked sporadically in intense week-long sessions in Cardiff spilling over Lacey's old and new home-studios, tearing songs down and building them back up again. "Heiress" is noticeably the product of nearly 4 years work - sprawling, ambitious and strikingly deep, it's a collection of songs both meticulously calculated and deeply felt. The record swings between delicate, poetic falsetto and vast walls of towering beauty - something single "Cavalry" does all on it's own. "Silvery" is a vital, grandiose inauguration, and the magical "Terraform" a celebratory realisation that you're back on your own Earth again. Both are solo artists in their own right - Welsh alt-folk artist Novo Amor's second EP "Bathing Beach", was released in May after a string of stunning self-released singles, whilst Oxford-born and Brighton-bred songwriter and producer Ed Tullett's 2016 album Fiancé precedes a flurry of upcoming solo, collaborative and production work.

Diocese announces Providence Church to Close Permanently
(PROVIDENCE RI) - Due to concern for the deteriorating condition of the church building and a steady decline in Mass attendance and sacramental practice, Rev. Edward Sousa, parish administrator of St. Casimir's in Providence, has recommended that St. Casimir Parish be closed permanently. After consultation with the diocesan staff, the Diocesan Consultors and the Council of Priests, Bishop Thomas J. Tobin has given his approval and parishioners were notified of the closure which will become effective on July 1, 2017.
"The closing of St. Casimir Parish and its church comes after several years of study, discussion and downsizing," said Bishop Tobin. "We salute the steadfast faith and devotion of Lithuanian Catholics who have worshipped at St. Casimir's over the years, but time has taken its toll, and the closing is now unavoidable," Bishop Tobin added.
In March 2017, due to further physical deterioration of the church roof and ceiling, all worship and occupancy in the church was suspended. The church's roof and ceiling leakage produced increased interior water damage which began to undermine the stability of the ceiling and walls. Costs for the necessary long-term repair of the church roof were estimated at approximately $90,000 and well beyond financial reach. The last Mass was celebrated on March 19, 2017.
St. Casimir parish has also been facing a sharp decline in sacramental practice and Mass attendance for several years. Only 12 people attended the last Mass celebrated there on March 19. There were no Baptisms, first Communions or Confirmations from 2014-2016 and only one wedding during the same time period. There is no longer a parish religious education program.
Every effort will be made to continue the ongoing spiritual and pastoral care of the remaining parishioners who are encouraged to attend Mass at nearby Catholic churches in the area. The parish sacramental records will be kept at St. Patrick Parish in Providence.
St. Casimir Parish in Providence served the Lithuanian Catholic faithful beginning in 1919 when the first Mass was celebrated in the lower-church of the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul. St. Casimir Church was built at its present location on Smith Street in 1935. Since that time, generations of families have heard the Word of God and received the sacraments there.


This is the third in a series of articles addressing the top 10 operational impacts of the GDPR. Find Parts 1 and 2 here.
Consent remains a lawful basis to transfer personal data under the GDPR; however, the definition of consent is significantly restricted. Where Directive 95/46/EC allowed controllers to rely on implicit and "opt-out" consent in some circumstances, the GDPR requires the data subject to signal agreement by "a statement or a clear affirmative action." The new law maintains the distinct requirements for processing "special categories of personal data" that were present in the Directive, but it expands the range of what is included in those special categories. Finally, the GDPR introduces restrictions on the ability of children to consent to data processing without parental authorization. This article addresses each of these GDPR consent provisions in turn.
Under the GDPR, consent must be "freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous." There was uncertainty leading up to this final draft whether the EU would settle on "unambiguous" consent as required by the Directive, or the higher standard of "explicit" consent. The final draft has staked out a middle position, on the one hand opting for unambiguous consent, while on the other hand requiring such consent to be expressed "by a statement or by a clear affirmative action." Recital 32 clarifies that an affirmative action signaling consent may include ticking a box on a website, "choosing technical settings for information society services," or "another statement or conduct" that clearly indicates assent to the processing. "Silence, pre-ticked boxes or inactivity," however, is presumed inadequate to confer consent.

The GDPR, therefore, creates additional hurdles for consent over what was required by the Directive. As interpreted by the Article 29 Working Party's Opinion 15/2011 on the definition of consent, the Directive required the controller to provide "accurate and full information on all relevant issues," including the nature of the data that will be processed, the purposes of processing, the identity of the controller, and the identity of any other recipients of the data. Consent had to be specific to the processing operations and the controller could not request open-ended or blanket consent to cover future processing. Significantly, while consent could be satisfied by an express statement, it also could be inferred from an action or inaction in circumstances where the action or inaction clearly signified consent. Thus, the Directive left open the possibility of "opt-out" consent.
First, Article 7(3) of the GDPR gives data subjects the right to withdraw consent at any time and "it shall be as easy to withdraw consent as to give it." Controllers must inform data subjects of the right to withdraw before consent is given. Once consent is withdrawn, data subjects have the right to have their personal data erased and no longer used for processing.
Second, in Recital 43, the GDPR adds a presumption that consent is not freely given if there is "a clear imbalance between the data subject and the controller, in particular where the controller is a public authority." Importantly, a controller may not make a service conditional upon consent, unless the processing is necessary for the service.
Third, the GDPR adds that consent must be specific to each data processing operation. To meet the specificity requirement under Article 7, a request for consent to data processing must be "clearly distinguishable" from any other matters in a written document, and it must be provided "in an intelligible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language." However, the law exempts controllers from obtaining consent for subsequent processing operations if the operations are "compatible." Recital 50 states that compatibility is determined by looking at factors including the link between the processing purposes, the reasonable expectations of the data subject, the nature and consequences of further processing, and the existence of appropriate safeguards for the data.
Whenever a controller relies on consent as a basis for processing, under Article 7(1), the controller bears the burden of demonstrating that consent was obtained lawfully according to the principles above.
The standard for explicit consent likely remains the same as under Directive 95/46/EC, which also required controllers to obtain explicit consent for processing special categories of personal data. Under the Directive, the Article 29 Working Party defined explicit consent as "all situations where individuals are presented with a proposal to agree or disagree to a particular use or disclosure of their personal information and they respond actively to the question, orally or in writing." Thus, a user's conduct or choice of browser settings probably will not be sufficient to meet this high bar. The GDPR also allows member states to enact laws that restrict the processing of some categories of data even if the data subject explicitly consents.
format_quoteThe GDPR also allows member states to enact laws that restrict the processing of some categories of data even if the data subject explicitly consents.
In Article 8, the GDPR introduces specific protections for children by limiting their ability to consent to data processing without parental authorization. Previous drafts of the regulation set the age of consent at 13 years old, which would have been consistent with the age of consent set by COPPA in the U.S. However, a last-minute proposal aimed to raise the age of consent to 16 years old. After the last round of trilogue negotiations, the final draft opted for the age of consent to be set at 16 years, but it allows member states to set a lower age not below 13 years. Thus, unless otherwise provided by member state law, controllers must obtain the consent of a parent or guardian when processing the personal data of a child under the age of 16. They also must make "reasonable efforts" to verify that a parent or guardian has provided the appropriate consent. Differing rules on the age of consent in EU member states, as well as between the EU standard and the COPPA age 13 rule applicable in the U.S., could create significant challenges for companies that offer international services. It is unclear whether member states will act together on this issue. At this time, at least one member state, the UK, has vowed to lower its age of consent to 13.
Consent features in a variety of other sections of the regulation. For example, under the right to erasure, in Article 17, the data subject has the right to have the controller erase her data if she withdraws consent and the processing had been based on her consent. Under Article 18, where the data subject exercises her right to restrict data processing, the controller may only continue to process the data if it obtains the data subject's consent or if processing is necessary for a legal claim. Article 20 grants the data subject the right to receive all the personal data about her in the controller's possession where the processing is based on her consent. In these circumstances, the required level of consent is "unambiguous" consent.
The GDPR requires the data subject's explicit consent in two other circumstances. Under Article 22, controllers need to obtain explicit consent to make decisions about the data subject "based solely on automated processing, including profiling." Controllers also must seek explicit consent, under Article 49, to authorize transfers of personal data to countries that do not provide an adequate level of protection, if no other transfer mechanism is in place.
The GDPR provides for two different levels of administrative penalties. Some violations are subject to fines up to 10,000,000 EUR or up to two percent of global annual turnover, while for other violations, those maximums are doubled to 20,000,000 EUR or four percent of global turnover. Violation of the rules around consent generally subject controllers to the higher level of fines, but violations of the rules concerning age of consent are subject to the lower level of penalties.
"whether the EU would settle on "unambiguous" consent as required by the Directive, or the higher standard of "explicit" consent"
What methods will the different states adopt for gaining verifiable parental consent, will they be consistent and how will an international company be made aware of the differing age restirctions state by state?
I have been breaking my head over this - What about opting in for a companies newsletter when requesting a free e-book (otherwise: no free e-book)?
Or joining a contest, but only if you accept the general conditions, meaning automatically subscribed to the newsletter of that company?
to reaffirm the consent under the GDPR rules?  Or is this going forward.

(32) Consent should be given by a clear affirmative act establishing a freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her, such as by a written statement, including by electronic means, or an oral statement. This could include ticking a box when visiting an internet website, choosing technical settings for information society services or another statement or conduct which clearly indicates in this context the data subject's acceptance of the proposed processing of his or her personal data. Silence, pre-ticked boxes or inactivity should not therefore constitute consent. Consent should cover all processing activities carried out for the same purpose or purposes. When the processing has multiple purposes, consent should be given for all of them. If the data subject's consent is to be given following a request by electronic means, the request must be clear, concise and not unnecessarily disruptive to the use of the service for which it is provided.
(42) Where processing is based on the data subject's consent, the controller should be able to demonstrate that the data subject has given consent to the processing operation. In particular in the context of a written declaration on another matter, safeguards should ensure that the data subject is aware of the fact that and the extent to which consent is given. In accordance with Council Directive 93/13/EEC1 a declaration of consent pre-formulated by the controller should be provided in an intelligible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language and it should not contain unfair terms. For consent to be informed, the data subject should be aware at least of the identity of the controller and the purposes of the processing for which the personal data are intended. Consent should not be regarded as freely given if the data subject has no genuine or free choice or is unable to refuse or withdraw consent without detriment.
(43) In order to ensure that consent is freely given, consent should not provide a valid legal ground for the processing of personal data in a specific case where there is a clear imbalance between the data subject and the controller, in particular where the controller is a public authority and it is therefore unlikely that consent was freely given in all the circumstances of that specific situation. Consent is presumed not to be freely given if it does not allow separate consent to be given to different personal data processing operations despite it being appropriate in the individual case, or if the performance of a contract, including the provision of a service, is dependent on the consent despite such consent not being necessary for such performance.
(50) The processing of personal data for purposes other than those for which the personal data were initially collected should be allowed only where the processing is compatible with the purposes for which the personal data were initially collected. In such a case, no legal basis separate from that which allowed the collection of the personal data is required. If the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller, Union or Member State law may determine and specify the tasks and purposes for which the further processing should be regarded as compatible and lawful. Further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes should be considered to be compatible lawful processing operations.
(51) Personal data which are, by their nature, particularly sensitive in relation to fundamental rights and freedoms merit specific protection as the context of their processing could create significant risks to the fundamental rights and freedoms. Those personal data should include personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, whereby the use of the term 'racial origin' in this Regulation does not imply an acceptance by the Union of theories which attempt to determine the existence of separate human races. … Derogations from the general prohibition for processing such special categories of personal data should be explicitly provided, inter alia, where the data subject gives his or her explicit consent or in respect of specific needs in particular where the processing is carried out in the course of legitimate activities by certain associations or foundations the purpose of which is to permit the exercise of fundamental freedoms.

Gustav Selve, né le  à Lüdenscheid-Peddensiepen et mort le  à Bonn, est un industriel allemand.

Biographie
Gustav Selve fut l'un des industriels allemands les plus importants avant la Première Guerre mondiale et un dirigeant bienveillant avec son personnel.

Il est entré dans l'entreprise métallurgique de son père, basée à Hamelin, en 1861, âgé de 19 ans, et en est devenu l'unique propriétaire à 41 ans en 1883.

Marié avec Maria Catharina Fischer le  à Lüdenscheid en Westphalie (Allemagne). Il eut un fils,  ( - ), devenu « Docteur » en 1919 et inventeur du piston en aluminium (Devint Baron en 1918 à la suite de son mariage avec Else Wieland en 1910) et prit la succession de l'entreprise à la mort de son père.

Il a été l'un des premiers à supprimer l'exploitation des ouvriers. Il est considéré comme l'un des pionniers de la sécurité sociale : ses employés étaient soignés par des médecins de l'entreprise Selve, il mit en place un système d'assurance maladie, accident, invalidité et vieillesse. Ses actions furent ensuite reprises par Bismarck. Le secteur social occupait une part importante de son existence et a œuvré en créant pour son personnel des logements ouvriers, des crèches, des centres d'apprentissages, des magasins d'approvisionnement, des bains gratuits, construisit un abattoir et créa un fonds de soutien aux nécessiteux.

Sa devise était : Fidélité autour d'une fidélité.

C'était un entrepreneur énergique. Il a transformé l'usine locale de son père en la déplaçant à Altena, ou 20 % de la ville travaillait pour l'entreprise, jusqu'à en faire une multinationale, en créant des usines, entre autres : en Rhénanie, en Prusse orientale, en Saxe ainsi qu'à l'étranger en Suisse et en Italie. Il employait .

Ces usines extrayaient divers métaux dont : de l'aluminium, du nickel, du laiton, du maillechort ainsi que des alliages de cuivre et de zinc. Elles fabriquaient des pièces de toutes sortes, pour tous usages : elles fondaient des pièces d'aluminium, notamment le squelette rigide en aluminium  des dirigeables Zeppelin, d'une forme mince, fait de poutres en anneaux et en long, pour l'automobile et les canots à moteur, laminaient le maillechort pour en faire des tôles, usinaient des pièces en alliages divers et frappaient les monnaies.

Avant sa fin, il gagnait 1,6 million de marks par an alors que le salaire moyen d'un employé de cette époque était de  par an.

Après son décès, les sociétés de sa holding ont été dissoutes, certaines ont été reprises par Krupp Ag, et en a fait un legs important à ses employés qui l'ont remercié en lui érigeant une importante statue en bronze, existant toujours.

En 1908, il fut le cofondateur de la Basse und Selve, constructeur de moteurs automobiles, avions (Brandebourg), autorails, bateaux, motos et autres. Il employait , son fils le Docteur Walther von Selve pris la succession à la mort de son père. Son fils, le docteur Walther von Selve a été par la suite le  et ensuite le créateur de la Selve Automobilwerke (1919-1930).

Villa Selve
À compter de 1899 Gustav Selve posséda ce manoir nommé villa Selve situé sur les rives du Rhin à Bonn.

Fritz Selve et la fontaine qui lui est dédiée
La fontaine Selve une monument situé à Lüdenscheid dédié à Fritz Selve, industriel né le , frère de Gustav Selve, elle fut inaugurée en . La fontaine est depuis 2003 sous la protection des monuments historiques.

La  a été conçue et exécutée par le sculpteur italien  qui a également conçu le mausolée de Gustav Selve. La sculpture représente le père du fondateur de la société Basse und Selve, elle le représente en forgeron. Sa base montre différentes scènes en relief. Au dos elle porte l'inscription:

Enrique Lopez Perez has been banned from the sport for eight years for his involvement in match-fixing activities in three separate instances in 2017, the Tennis Integrity Unit (TIU) said on Tuesday.
The 29-year-old Spaniard, who reached a career-high singles ranking of 154 in 2018 and a best doubles ranking of 135 last year, was also fined $25,000.
"The disciplinary case was heard by anti-corruption hearing officer Richard McLaren on 5 November 2020," the TIU said in a statement.
"He found that Enrique Lopez Perez breached the rules of the Tennis Anti-corruption Programme three times at tournaments in 2017, with two further charges unproven."
Perez was provisionally suspended in December 2019, and will not be able to attend or play in any sanctioned tennis event for the next eight years.
