This is a family "home from home". This maison is owned by two families; and if you decide to come to Deux Coeurs we want you to make yourselves at home, and enjoy it as much as we do. It is equally suitable for winter or summer holidays, is well equipped and wonderfully relaxing. Samoens is one of the Alps' best kept secrets - as noted in this recent travel article.
We work in partnership with local companies, especially Graham and Gaëlle and their team at Kukipegs Property Services who provide a very professional service and in-resort support, tailored to your needs.
Latest images from around the Sameons village and the various activities on offer.
Top of Col de Joux Plane after a gruelling ascent!
This way to the Col!
1. Maison Deux-Coeurs a lovely cosy home from home, where the days adventures on the mountain were regaled over a hearty meal with plenty of wine and good company. I was thankful for the wood burning stove, the hot tub and the warmest of welcomes and care by our hosts. Conveniently situated for access to the slopes and the town centre of Samoens, you can be as independent or group orientated as you wish. The town is very picturesque and the locals and snow sports instructors friendly. 2. CPD Actif - combining the adventurous training with the other elements of active learning and personal development offers one of the fastest ways to bond a group of individuals and create an environment where everyone feels able to express both their strengths and offer their weakness for development by the group.
Have just returned from a wonderful 10 days at Deux Coeurs. It was really hot, 35C, so thank goodness for the pool- it was great! Must say that despite the great heat, the house remained pleasantly cool, and for those needing respite from the heat, there were cool places indoors. Wonderful holiday for the family- children were able to cycle (quite strenuous, I believe), they went to lake and swam and did the "Go-ape", white water rafting etc. and at the house, the Xbox and technology that children enjoy,a good choice of DVDs, CDs, books and boxed games, as well as the pool and hot tub. We all enjoyed the facilities to barbecue and dine on the decking, with the gazebo to shelter from sun or wind, and to sunbathe round the pool. As a family we ate out in Samoens at delightful restaurants offering traditional French food, and when we chose to eat in, in the spacious dining area, a visit to the market was a wonderful opportunity to buy local food - the cheeses are fantastic, and the charcuterie is renowned, not to mention the irresistible patisseries from the local boulangerie. The wine was quite new to us, as it is generally unavailable in UK, but we have all developed a taste for it, it is good. The house is very well equipped, ( a Gaggia coffee maker!) and we all found the beds very comfortable. A visit to Sixt was memorable - a most beautiful little village higher up the valley, but we were disappointed that we couldn't go up the ski lift to the little restaurant at the top. The prices at Sixt were better than in Samoens, so if looking for souvenirs.......and we had a lovely lunch at a super restaurant there. The little train will take you to Sixt from Samoens on a guided tour, but we didn't avail ourselves of that. We did find prices on some things high, but there is a Carrefour in Samoens, which supplies most of our needs, and has a good choice of meat and veg and fruit, don't expect a fish counter, however! The market on a Wednesday is wonderful, but get there early, nip round quickly , as it closes at midday. Husband bought a snazzy little hat for 1 euro, and I bought a lovely pair of hand made ear-rings for 13 euros. The house is well situated for those who enjoy a leisurely stroll either into town or round the wonderful old farms in the valley. There are shady walks/cycling by the river and the house is right by the river, which is so clear, but quite turbulent, especially after the spectacular thunder storm we experienced one night, with sheet lightening which lit up the entire valley, and unbelievably heavy rain, but it just cleared away, leaving everywhere refreshed. The tap water is really good to drink,, straight off the mountain, and makes a good cup of tea. Can't recommend Deux Coeurs enough-a wonderful place which certainly ticked all the boxes for us ( all 3 generations!) and there is good support from the local team if needed. We found the guidelines for using facilities in the house clear and helpful, and for all the local amenities. Thank you for a stress free holiday.
We had a lovely stay at Deux-Coeurs, home from home, well equipped, warm and comfortable.
Ideally situated, a few minutes walk from Samoens centre, ski bus stops at the end of the lane a couple of hundred metres away from the house.
As a family group of 10, with a wide range of ages from 3yrs upwards, the house suited us very well and allowed everyone to have their own space.
A beautiful chalet besides the running water within close reach of the slopes made for some varied skiing. The company meant that the CPD was challenging and varied which lead to a very busy 4 days and some good learning.

Voice of Kimery Finger: "God spent a lot of time talking to my heart. And then I learned how to pray. And then I started focusing on what I wanted to do to not come back and be in the same place."
When Kimery Finger was in prison, she found support from the Restoring Hope ministry at Atlanta's Cascade United Methodist Church.
(Locator: Atlanta, Georgia)
Finger served two years for forgery.
Kimery Finger: "The ladies started communicating with me while I was still incarcerated. Wrote me and I wrote back to them. When I had my release date, the ladies were there to pick me up at the bus stop. They helped me get into a halfway house. And that's where everything really started working from there. For me living in the halfway house, I attended church here every Sunday, and Bible study. And the ladies would each week spend time with me on the weekends. And we would do activities together, have dinner together. They were a bunch of sisters holding me up. I thank God that the ladies from Cascade were there for me."
A volunteer for ten years, Levada Spann knows the program works.
Levada Spann, Cascade UMC Restoring Hope Ministry: "For a lot of people this is their last resource. They don't have anywhere else to reach out. They've severed their relationships with their families, with their spouses and with their friends. And we come into the picture to encourage them to keep trying, and that they can turn their life around if they truly desire to make that change."

Cascade United Methodist is a dynamic congregation of 5,000 worshipers on Sunday mornings. But the Reverend Marvin Anthony Moss will tell you this church's lifeblood is its commitment to the community the other six days of the week.
The Rev. Marvin Anthony Moss, Cascade United Methodist Church: "Every day we are inundated with the negative aspects of what's going on in the world. That's when our faith kicks in."
Church members run nearly 50 outreach programs from prison and homeless ministries to job fairs.
Allene McCollum, Cascade United Methodist Church: "We can't save anybody. But at least we can tell them there's a better way of life, and you have the opportunity, through this church, letting us help you to do something with your life."
Cascade serves as a success story for SBC21, Strengthening the Black Church for the 21st Century, a United Methodist program designed to revitalize congregations.
Engaging lay people to take on active leadership roles is a key component.
The Rev. Marvin Anthony Moss: "Jesus has empowered us to be the word. And so what we look at are all of the opportunities and not obstacles. We look at ways to help individuals become employed. We have individuals in this congregation who, with a phone call, can make that opportunity available. And so we appeal to them to do that. Basically using the gifts that we have received to re-engage with the community, help people see this is an opportunity for the kingdom of God to show the strength of God, and allow God's people to give God the glory."
Levada Spann: "I started with Restoring Hope and I was blessed by the experience. I didn't realize how easy it was to really help someone in need. And a lot of times we don't understand that it doesn't take a whole lot of money to make a difference. And something as simple as just offering hope and working one-on-one with the women has been a blessing for me."
Kimery Finger: "I just want to say with Cascade and Restoring Hope, you gave me hope and you gave me the courage to walk with my head up. The ladies here built my confidence up to let me not settle for anything less."

2013's expansion, Enemy Within, has only deepened Enemy Unknown's excellent campaign. XCOM's narrative arc remains unchanged, but between the necessary story missions there's great scope for expression in the management of your band of battle brothers and sisters. The bonds you form with your troops - and the shock when they meet a messy end - form the highs and lows of a player-authored narrative worthy of our game of the year award for Best Singleplayer.
EVAN I feel like I'm sitting across a table from someone clever as I play XCOM, and I think that speaks to how well Firaxis create a relationship between you and your campaign. Depending on a turn outcome, I'll see my unseen enemy commander as lucky, or dastardly, or cowardly. XCOM also – unlike plenty of modern games – implements meaningful difficulty (and Second Wave) settings that increase the ownership you feel.
CHRIS I gravitate to singleplayer games that make me feel like it matters that it's me playing. That's why XCOM has absorbed so much of my time – each of my campaigns is shaped by my ideas, creativity, skill and ineptitude. Mostly the latter. Whether I'm doing a run where all my soldiers are named after colleagues and wear PCG red or one where I take it seriously and let stories emerge from the soldiers the game generates for me, it's deeply involving in a way that scripted singleplayer experiences just aren't.
The XCOM experience shares that playful melodrama, creativity, and choreographed tactics (though when I was a kid no one buried my dead soldiers and told me I couldn't play with them anymore). And Enemy Within is like pouring a tub of new bits into my toy set. The gene mods and MEC Troopers aren't just about gaining a tactical advantage, they're about telling new stories by snapping on extra bits to my action figures. The Exalt missions are tactically satisfying to play, but more important to me, they're new chances for heroes to emerge and sacrifices to be made. With Enemy Within, XCOM is my current favourite toy bin.
CORY I love how it ramps up the number of choices you need to make, especially early on. Do you devote your resources to building MEC suits or gene labs, at the cost of diminishing your satellite expansion? Can you really wait to create MEC Troopers, knowing you'll get better bonuses for captains instead of squaddies? Even in early missions, I have to decide if it's worth rushing the field to get to Meld containers. risking an alien ambush, instead of methodically progressing through a map. Strategy games are better when you have to make tough choices, and Enemy Within introduces so many of them.
TOM It's the miraculous thing about games, that we can derive human drama from cold mathematics. Why care when a squaddie – a mere computerised packet of values – gets melted by an alien in battle? The fantasy of XCOM is one factor, communicated by a timeless artstyle. Mostly, it's about investment: the resources you pour into the development of your soldiers, and the time you spend with them from battle to battle. In the genetic modifications and giant robot mech suits, Enemy Within gives you more ways to invest in your team, strengthening those bonds and squeezing more drama out of its perfectly paced campaign.

You Ain't Racist
The other day, Joe Biden said, if a black person doesn't vote for him, "you ain't black." He was immediately accused of being a "racist" by many people on the right who over the years have complained about the charge of "racist" being unfairly levied at them. Let's examine what Biden actually was saying. His point was that his record on helping the African-American community is so far superior to his opponent that a black person who does not vote for him must have completely lost touch with the black community.
This is what we get when we travel down the road of racial and identity politics. Joe Biden is not a racist, but dealing in identity politics makes you sound like one. All black people do not think alike, and all black people won't vote alike, and they will still be black because like every other race, they are diverse, free thinking, autonomous people who are fully capable of coming to their own conclusions, and making their own individual decisions. Even though this notion of "the black vote" has been perpetuated for years. Liberals have used this notion to try to corner the market on "the black vote" for decades by claiming they are champions of black people and their opponents are racist. All this type of rhetoric creates an even bigger racial divide in the country.
This incident reminds me of the 1992 Presidential campaign when Ross Perot was speaking to the NAACP. He was speaking about problems and solution in African-American communities when he referred to the people in the audience, who were all black, as "you people". The charge of "racist" was immediately thrown at him, by probably some of the same people who are now defending Biden. I never understood what was wrong with saying "you people". The event was set up by the NAACP which stands for National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It is not called National Association for the Advancement of All People. They created the distinction that Perot used. They divided people by race, us and them, you and me. You cannot divide the country into racial groups, and then complain that the country is racially divided.
Some may ask, how are you going to help the black communities if you don't identify that the black communities are struggling. Well, we should start off by calling them American communities, not black communities. There are American communities struggling in this country, and they are not only black communities. There are more white people living under the poverty line than black people. What about the poor Hispanic and Asian communities? Are we not going to help those communities? Are we only concerned with the African-American communities that are struggling? Why not say we are going to help the poor, disaffected or underserved communities regardless of race. We, as Americans, should come together to help all the American communities that are struggling. That is inclusive. That brings people, the country together. As opposed to framing it as black vs white which is divisive, creates anger and push back, and in the end does not rally the nation behind this very important cause.
Some people may say to me, 'you can't say all this because you are white. You have not experienced the racial discrimination that blacks have.' I haven't, but it's hard to support the fight against the denial of your constitutional rights because of the color of your skin, when you are denying others their constitutional rights because of the color of their skin. If there is something, I have written that you believe is wrong or you take issue with, then bring it up and let's start a dialogue. Let's have an intellectual conversation where we both learn something new or see a different perspective. But to shut down my speech because of my race is wrong. Those type of tactics set the whole issue back decades.
So, the mere act of grouping people by their race or their gender or their sexual orientation/identity is in itself prejudicial, and potentially discriminatory. You cannot go down the road of grouping people by race, gender and orientation, and then call them prejudice when they follow you down that road. Are all white people alike? Are all black people alike? Are all men alike? Are all women alike? The answers are, no, no, no, no, and for all, not even close.
When women push for women's rights, there is push back from men. Do women want more rights, different rights than men? The same is true for LGBTQ rights. Does the LGBTQ community want more or different rights? No, they will say, we just want the same rights. Then, it should be call Equal Rights for All, not Women's Rights or LGBTQ Rights. Language matters. You cannot use exclusive language and then wonder why there is division, and everyone isn't on board. We already have equal rights codified into law. It's called the Bill of Rights. These rights are not given to certain people by our creator based on their race, gender or orientation. They are given to us, all people based on our shared humanity. And if there are people denied their Constitutional Rights, we have the Supreme Court in place to rectify that.
We are all individuals. And I believe our individuality far transcends our race and gender and any other trait that other people want to use to group us. Who we are as an individual is what makes us unique and special and worthwhile, our thoughts, our feelings, our beliefs make us so much more of who we are than the color of our skin or our gender or whatever demographic box someone tries to wedge us into? And our individuality is denied, who we are as a person gets erased every time anyone sees us as our demographics, and when our individuality gets erased, we get erased.

1. The sales team isn't consistently prospecting. They're good one week, then lose their momentum and shift into account-management mode.
2. Prospecting efforts are producing only small deals and transactions. The big opportunities are lost to the competition.
Sporadic prospecting efforts usually happen when a salesperson hasn't developed the EI skill of delayed gratification, which is the ability to put in the work before achieving the reward. Salespeople who haven't developed this skill get frustrated easily if they don't get sales results quickly. For example, they might cold call, email, or attend networking events for two weeks. If no appointments are set, they throw in the towel and start surfing the Internet.
When trying to build a personal network, they're not willing to put in the time and effort needed to build alliance partners. They meet a potential partner for breakfast and then expect him to hand over his Rolodex. Relationships are built over time, and instant-gratification salespeople are reluctant to invest energy.
Instant-gratification salespeople are often lousy at time management. They don't plan their weeks and months very well because planning, well, it takes time and thought. They subscribe to the wing-it school of sales and show up at the office on Monday morning with no clue of how they're going to spend their week. There's no plan of action other than where they're going to get their next cup of coffee.
The salesperson with delayed-gratification skills will put in the time to carefully map out a pursuit strategy, identifying the opportunities and the buying influences within each prospect account. He or she creates a customized approach for each meeting and plans thoughtful questions and value propositions that will resonate with each individual buyer.
The instant-gratification salesperson, on the other hand, shows up with a generic, one-size-fits-all approach that rarely results in a second meeting.
Empathetic salespeople recognize that each buyer has a different set of pains, a different set of needs, a different story. They're quick to listen and slow to offer a solution. Empathetic salespeople ask more and better questions. As a result, they win business because they offer solutions that align perfectly with each buyer's pain.
No, you don't need to stop teaching hard sales skills, such as email prospecting, cold calling, referral training, and LinkedIn strategies. Instead, add soft-skills training to your program. This holistic approach to sales will help you better diagnose and fix your problems and improve your business development efforts. Soft skills do produce hard sales results.

As a consultant certified to train and administer both DISC behavioral and the MHS, Inc. emotional intelligence assessments, I am often asked why I choose to use both. The answer is fairly simple – the two assessments measure different aspects of a person and the more awareness a person has on how and why they do things, the more control they can exhibit in order to choose effective actions. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate how the EQ-i 2.0 can be used in conjunction with the DISC Behavioral Model and how it can further validate the results of both assessments.
The DISC Model is a descriptive model and the EQ-I 2.0 is a prescriptive model. The DISC Model describes a person's behavior and emotions so they can better understand themselves and others. The EQ-i 2.0 offers a person significant insight into how they can modify their behavior and emotions to function better.
If a person's DISC assessment results reveal, for example, a high score on the Dominance scale, that score tells you how this person reacts to problems and challenges. A person's EQ-i 2.0 assessment results on the Decision Making scale and the specific Problem Solving Subscale will reveal not only that the person likes problems and challenges, but how in tune they are at recognizing the emotions involved in the decision making and problem solving process. High scores on that specific scale and subscale would indicate they would be able to use their natural style to make better decisions because they have a high level of problem solving skills.
We also know that people with a high Dominance style are quick to show anger. By looking at their score on the EQ-i 2.0 Impulse Control Subscale, one would be able to determine whether the person is likely to be able to control their natural emotion of anger. In addition, the Self-Expression Composite Scale, specifically the Emotional Expression Subscale, could give the consultant insight into how constructively this person would express their emotions, especially anger. The DISC Dominance scale measures the person's need for Independence, which is a factor in the EQ-i 2.0 report that could give more insight into how that person could best achieve a sense of independence.
The Influence Factor measures a person's natural ability to display optimism versus pessimism and if we know their Stress Management Score, specifically, their Optimism Subscale results, we could predict how much this person's high "I" behavior is going to contribute to their resiliency, even in the face of highly stressful events.
The EQ-i 2.0 is going to tell us what level of Emotional Self Awareness a person thinks they have and if that scale is high, it could indicate how accurate their DISC assessment results are, since DISC measures a person's emotions, as well as behavior. If they had a low Emotional Self Awareness score, we might take a more discerning look at the results of their DISC scores.
We could also look at the Interpersonal Composite Scale and specifically the Empathy Subscale and compare the person's results on the Steadiness Factor of the DISC Model. The DISC assessment indicates people with high "S" display high empathy and people with low "S" will struggle with displaying empathy, unless they score high on the Empathy Subscale on the EQ-i 2.0 assessment.
The results from the EQ-i 2.0 report can also give a consultant some specifics to explore regarding the person's ability to see things as they are by looking at the Reality Subscale and comparing it to the person's "C" factor on their DISC report, since high "C" individuals tend to be the most objective of all the behavioral styles. Another Subscale that could be examined is a potential inverse relationship between a high "C" behavioral style and the EQ-i 2.0 Flexibility Subscale, since individuals with a high "C" behavioral style may be challenged to exhibit high flexibility.
This paper is not intended to be a total comparison and correlation between these two assessments, but rather to examine some of the reasons a person might want to take both assessments to gain a more multi-dimensional insight into him/herself.
In summary, it is my belief that these two assessments, while measuring different things, can give both consultants and individuals a more in-depth understanding of the things that cause people to behave the way they do, as well as how they can improve in order to be more effective. Research shows that the higher self-awareness individuals have, the greater likelihood they will have an increased ability to evaluate their behavior and emotions and better understand the behavior and emotions of others. Thus, allowing them to choose actions that are going to result in more positive outcomes for all parties.

As research and practice continue to abound in the area of Emotional Intelligence we will seek to apply some of this new knowledge into the area most critical to the success or failure of an organization – its teams and whether they work consistently well together. Have you ever wondered why some of your teams outstrip the performance of others while having people of the same professional standing or skills level? Do you get frustrated with teams who just cannot seem to get on in the day to day work environment? Can you imagine what it would be like if your teams were equipped to make better decisions? We believe that working with EI can shed light on these issues and provide a way of getting to grips with them.
In this webinar we'll explore the exciting topic of emotional intelligence and how it intrinsically provides the employee a foundation to build qualities, characteristics, and behaviors that lead to greater individual engagement. We'll look at the world's first scientifically validated model of emotional intelligence the EQ-i 2.0 and understand how certain skills in emotional intelligence empower 4 key elements to employee engagement. The nature of Emotional Intelligence is that it is dynamic and can be developed. The development ability of emotional intelligence allows us to cultivate a plan around specific skills that ultimately results in empowered employees, greater engagement, and increased productivity.
The world has been stuck in a dominance paradigm since we first learned we could dominate others through force. Autocratic, authoritarian leadership depends on this paradigm of dominating others, however, the world is moving away from this dominance paradigm to a partnership paradigm in which we work more through relationships. Leadership is evolving to meet with these changes in how society relates with one another, but the skills required to partner well – emotional intelligence skills – often get overlooked. Join David Cory, leadership development specialist, as he reviews the world's most comprehensive model of EQ and the 15 EQ competencies that make up this model.

everything well enough. Then his boss informed him that the big report he and his team have worked on for two months is needed in two days instead of the two weeks they were supposed to have to complete it well. Stephan hit the roof. He yelled at his boss, refused to meet the deadline. Told his staff to just quit and take the rest of the day off.
It wasn't a pretty picture. That was a few weeks ago. Stephan is working in his coaching with the aftermath of his outburst, as well as what brought him to it. Our focus includes understanding his challenges and building ways to stay in touch with his resilience meter to help guide his behavior.
Perceiving yourself with healthy self-regard by being able to view your strengths, challenges, and neutral zones and feel good about who you are.
There is a strong connection between the strength of your resilience and 6 of the 16 skills measured by the EQi 2.0: stress tolerance, emotional self-awareness, self-regard, optimism, impulse control and flexibility.
to put your own oxygen mask on before you start helping others. You know why – you'll black out quickly and be a problem rather than a help if you don't start with your mask. Life is that way as well. Though it may be easier for some to focus on the tasks, including attending to everyone else's needs, you will be better in all ways if you start with you first – and then remember to keep prioritizing your needs!
Dr. Barbara Fredrickson, author of Love 2.0 and Positivity, which I highly recommend, provides copious research on the beneficial effect of resilience and the field of positivity.

One effective strategy she emphasizes is loving kindness meditation. What's different about Barbara's work is that it primarily occurs in the laboratory – her laboratory and her joint work with many other leading scientists. The benefit of her research is she is documenting what so many coaches, trainers and others have believed to be true.

Bullying and Emotional Intelligence: Is there a link?


It's the New Year and many of us are back with our nose to the grind stone in one way or another. If you work from home a little or a lot, you'll understand how hard it can be to get your mind back into working mode, particularly after a long spell of enjoying your time indoors over Christmas.
Most of us don't have room for a designated home office space, but as so many of us are working remotely, it's become increasingly important to merge home and work life and still be productive. If working from home is going to be a success we need to be able to get up, walk away, distance ourselves from the 9-5 and get on with family life. Equally, when its time to work, we need to create an environment that allows us to get in the zone.
In the search to get the balance right between work and home life, we think we've discovered the perfect asset.
Primarily they provide a desk space, which is a good starting point for any office. A platform to work on (that isn't your lap) is pretty crucial! They're often narrow in size, so if you have to introduce one to a dining room or bedroom for example, they won't overtake the space and confuse the function of the room.
Their enclosed nature make the work space feel contained, rather than a sprawling desk that spills over into your bedroom laundry basket! Everything is neatly confined to this designated space, allowing you to get your head down, eyes forward and block out the distractions of the outside world.
With a plethora of drawers and shelves for keeping things at hand and in order, there's no shortage of filing space.
Your laptop can be plugged in at all times, via the handy hole at the back of the bureau and you can even stow it away while it's still on charge.
As well as all those to the neat little cubby holes and handy shelves, you have the added bonus of space above to store books, plants or house additional lighting. Any additional 'dressing' space like this can really help to soften the blow of having to accommodate an office space in a bedroom, dining or living area. Adding points of interest that detract from the working area can make a home office feel all the more homely.
It's also great for general well being to surround yourself with plants and light, so try and incorporate a bit of greenery wherever you can. Having to water them every now and then can also be a welcome distraction!
Here we've also used a our Malena Mirror and our Cambridge Copper Antique Desk Lamp to add even more life and light to our home office.
The true beauty of a Bureau lies beyond its general function. Our favourite features of this versatile little gem is that at the end of a long day at the office, you simply fold it away and your work life is concealed in one swift action.
Our Light Oak Bureau closes neatly to disguise your office space as a stunning chest of drawers. Any reminder of work is hidden from your gaze, so if it's present in your bedroom, you can sleep easily at night without that constant reminder. Plus you can even use the drawers beneath as additional storage space!
For more Bureaus and other beautiful desks for the home office, take a look at our desk page.
If you've got a little more space around the home, we also recommend a corner desk as a great way of sectioning off the area in the room that's designated for work.

Virgin Galactic and Virgin Orbit suspend Saudi talks
By Jay Jackson, San Francisco Star
Virgin had been negotiating with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund which was to see the kingdom take a stake in Virgin Galactic and Virgin Orbit
Branson in a statement released late Thursday said the talks were now suspended, and he was suspending twlo directorships he had taken on two Saudi tourism projects
There has been considerable speculation this week that the reporter's disappearance, and possible murder, could lead to a breaking of ties by international investors. Branson's group it appears is the first cab off the rank
LONDON, UK - Richard Branson, the founder and principal shareholder of the Virgin Group conglomerate, which comprises more than 400 companies, is suspending all business relationships with Saudi Arabia.
Virgin had been negotiating with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund which was to see the kingdom take a stake in Virgin Galactic and Virgin Orbit, the conglomerate's new Space programmes. That, at least for now, will not happen.
The measures being taken by Branson personally, and by the Virgin Group, were announced late Thursday by Branson himself.
The reason the magnate gave was due to the circumstance behind the disappearance of prominent Saudi-born, Washington DC resident, and The Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
There has been considerable speculation this week that the reporter's disappearance, and possible murder, could lead to a breaking of ties by international investors. Branson's group it appears is the first cab off the rank.
"I had high hopes for the current government in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and its leader Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and it is why I was delighted to accept two directorships in the tourism projects around the Red Sea," Branson said in a statement released late on Thursday.
"I felt that I could give practical development advice and also help protect the precious environment around the coastline and islands."
"What has reportedly happened in Turkey around the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, if proved true, would clearly change the ability of any of us in the West to do business with the Saudi Government," Branson said.
"We have asked for more information from the authorities in Saudi and to clarify their position in relation to Mr Khashoggi."
"While those investigations are ongoing and Mr Khashoggi's whereabouts are not known, I will suspend my directorships of the two tourism projects," Branson said.
"Virgin will also suspend its discussions with the Public Investment Fund over the proposed investment in our space companies Virgin Galactic and Virgin Orbit."
Saudi Arabia was also rocked Thursday by several withdrawals from a major investment conference, Future Investment Initiative, being host by Crown Prince Salman in Riyadh later this month (October23-25 2018).
Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, Viacom CEO Bob Bakish, and Ariana Huffington, the founder of the Huffington Post, announced on Thursday they would now not be attending the conference, which is known as 'the Davos in the Desert.'
The New York Times withdrew as well as a media partner, saying it was "no longer comfortable being associated with the event." The newspaper was soon joined by The Financial Times and CNN.
Uber's Khosrowshahi said in a statement released late on Thursday, "I'm very troubled by the reports to date about Jamal Khashoggi. "We are following the situation closely, and unless a substantially different set of facts emerges, I won't be attending the FII conference in Riyadh."
Khosrowshahi was scheduled to be among the scores of speaks at the event.
Other speakers who had not signalled they were withdrawing include:
- David Bonderman, Chairman & Founding Partner, TPG Capital
- Jamie Dimon, CEO, JPMorgan Chase
- Larry Fink, Chairman & CEO, BlackRock, Inc.
- John M. Flint, Executive Director & Group Chief Executive of HSBC Holdings PLC
- Christine Lagarde, President, IMF
- Kai-Fu Lee, Chairman & CEO, Sinovation Ventures
- Tong Li, CEO, Bank of China International
- Rob Lloyd, CEO, Hyperloop One

- Lubna S. Olayan, CEO & Deputy Chairperson, Olayan Financing Company
- General David Petraeus, Chairman, KKR
- Jeremy Weir, Executive Chairman & CEO, Trafigura Group Pte Ltd
- Stephen Schwarzman, CEO, Blackstone
U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Friday confirmed he was still attending the conference.
"I am planning on going at this point," he told CNBC. "If mlore information comes out and changes, we could look at that, but I am planning on going."

PSI Increases Sales by 13 Percent in the First Nine Months
EBIT increased by 5 % to 10.5 million euros
Integration of BTC smart grid business acquired in early 2019 completed
Market growth expected from the climate package in Germany
KPI (TEUR) 1 Jan. – 30 Sept. 2019 1 Jan. – 30 Sept. 2018
Sales 159,718 141,555 +12.8 %
EBIT 10,479 10,005 +4.7 %
Group EBIT 7,147 6,850 +4.3 %
Result per share (EUR) 0.46 0.44 +4.6 %
Berlin, 30 October 2019 – PSI Group improved sales in the first nine months of 2019 by just under 13 % to 159.7 million euros (30 Sept. 2018: 141.6 million euros) through organic growth in the two segments and 5.5 million euros sales from the acquisition in the energy sector. The EBIT increased by 5 % to 10.5 million euros (30 Sept. 2018: 10.0 million euros), the group net result increased by 4 % to 7.1 million euros (30 Sept. 2018: 6.9 million euros) despite poorer financial results as a consequence of the application of IFRS 16. New orders were increased by 3 % to 182 million euros. The 176 million euros of the previous year's period included 11.4 million euros in major orders from the public transport sector. The order book volume on 30 Sept. 2019 was, at 156 million euros slightly below the figure for the previous year (30 Sept. 2018: 159 million euros).
Energy Management (energy networks, energy trading, public transportation) achieved 18 % higher sales of 81 million euros in the first nine months (30 Sept. 2018: 68.9 million euros). The EBIT for the segment improved by 5 % to 4.4 million euros compared to the previous year (30 Sept. 2018: 4.2 million euros). In the third quarter, the BTC Smart-Grid division, which had been acquired on 1 January 2019, still incurred integration costs of just under 0.3 million euros (-1.1 million euros in the first quarter, -0.7 million euros in the second quarter). After around half of the employees acquired were assigned to other divisions of electrical grids and integrated, the integration cost budgets were concluded. The cooperation with the seller EWE/BTC on the unbundling and project handovers was very constructive and professional. The new INFRA division (integrated municipal utilities, infrastructures, industry) achieved new orders of 9 million euros in the first nine months, sales of 5.5 million euros and a positive result after allocation in the third quarter. After completion of the integration, electrical grids will again concentrate more on growth and regular customers. Energy trading, which was burdened in the first half of the year with investments in pilot projects to replace a competitor system, delivered a balanced result in the third quarter and achieved appealing progress and project approvals. PSI continues to invest in software for the intelligent management of low-voltage networks. Among other things, an important export order for charging management for the electric buses of a European metropolis was won in the third quarter.
Sales in Production Management (raw materials, metal, industry, logistics) was, at 78.7 million euros, 8 % above the value for the previous year in the first nine months (30 Sept. 2018: 72.6 million euros). The EBIT improved by 7 % to 7.0 million euros (30 Sept. 2018: 6.6 million euros). With good business in America and China, metals business continues to manage to keep new orders, sales and earnings more or less constant despite the steel crisis. Automotive, industrial and logistics were able to increase sales by 15 % and earnings by 32 %. The third quarter was burdened by investments in Mines&Roads, which is concentrating more on low-risk indirect business with integration partners and on emission-reducing traffic solutions in Europe.
In Russia PSI expects incoming orders of around 15 million euros from the gas networks, logistics networks, metals industry (tubular steel) and electricity grid businesses.
The number of employees in the group increased as of 30 Sept. 2019 to 1,981 (30 Sept. 2018: 1,775) as a result of new hires and the acquisition of the BTC smart grid business. Cash flow from operating activities decreased to 1.8 million euros (30 Sept. 2018: 7.2 million euros) as a result of seasonally rising working capital, the purchase price payment for the business acquired and the integration costs. Liquidity decreased accordingly to 30.8 million euros (30 Sept. 2018: 35.5 million euros).
On the basis of the PSI Java Frameworks, PSI has come to support more than 300 application consultants (and "PSI-Click Designer") at integration partners and in the IT departments of customers. PSI will invest in a more automated app store cloud support of this fast growing community, to further improve their economic success and to be able to roll out more licenses.
PSI continues to record strong demand, particularly for control technology for electricity and gas networks as well as in the logistics and automotive sectors, and therefore expects further increases in the high-margin license, maintenance, upgrade and cloud business in the coming quarters. Despite the gloomy economic forecasts in Germany and the integration burden, the PSI Management Board continues to expect sales growth of 10 % to 220 million euros and an increase in the operating result of close to 17 million euros for 2019.
The German government's Climate Protection Programme 2030 contains numerous initiatives which, if implemented, could lead to additional annual investments of around 100 million euros in control system software in Germany. In addition to the energy sector, this also applies increasingly to the heat and transport sectors. PSI is already involved in more than 20 pre-competitive research projects. The management therefore expects continued good growth in the domestic market of Germany and Europe.
Based on its own software products, PSI Group develops and integrates complete solutions for optimizing the flow of energy and materials for utilities (energy networks, energy trading, public transport) and industry (mining, metals production, automotive, mechanical engineering, logistics). PSI was founded in 1969 and employs almost 2,000 persons worldwide.


Fuse learner with the bagging technique.
Fuses a learner with the bagging method (i.e., similar to what a randomForest does). Creates a learner object, which can be used like any other learner object. Models can easily be accessed via getLearnerModel.
Bagging is implemented as follows: For each iteration a random data subset is sampled (with or without replacement) and potentially the number of features is also restricted to a random subset. Note that this is usually handled in a slightly different way in the random forest where features are sampled at each tree split).
Prediction works as follows: For classification we do majority voting to create a discrete label and probabilities are predicted by considering the proportions of all predicted labels. For regression the mean value and the standard deviations across predictions is computed.
Note that the passed base learner must always have predict.type = 'response', while the BaggingWrapper can estimate probabilities and standard errors, so it can be set, e.g., to predict.type = 'prob'. For this reason, when you call setPredictType, the type is only set for the BaggingWrapper, not passed down to the inner learner.
Iterations = number of fitted models in bagging. Default is 10.
Sample bags with replacement (bootstrapping)? Default is TRUE.
Percentage size of sampled bags. Default is 1 for bootstrapping and 0.632 for subsampling.
Percentage size of randomly selected features in bags. Default is 1. At least one feature will always be selected.

CENTR Brands Corp. Hires Carlyle Group Executive David Young as CFO
2.5 min readPublished On: June 7th, 2021By News Team
VANCOUVER, B.C.– CENTR Brands Corp. (CSE: CNTR) (FSE: 303) (OTCQB: CNTRF), a CBD beverage company today announced that current Board member David Young has joined the Company as Chief Financial Officer. Young brings more than 20 years of executive and financial leadership to CENTR, drawing on roles in both industry and private equity settings.
He joins CENTR's executive team from global investment firm The Carlyle Group, where he served as a Principal.
The addition of Young to the executive team allows current President and CFO Arjan Chima to prioritize his focus on commercial and marketing opportunities, including further scaling the Company's distribution and product offerings that have supported the significant growth CENTR continues to experience.

Mr. Young is a distinguished alumni of the University of Virginia's McIntire School of Commerce, where he has been a guest lecturer on a number of topics.
"CENTR has quickly established itself as a market leader in the global functional beverage space, as evidenced by its remarkable trajectory over the past year," said Young.

Potato cyst nematode in Western Australia
Page last updated: Tuesday, 23 January 2018 - 12:28pm
Globodera rostochiensis, golden or potato cyst nematode (PCN) and G. pallida, pale or white potato cyst nematode, pose a threat to the Western Australian potato industry.
Symptoms caused by both species are similar but far fewer potato varieties have resistance to G. pallida and this species is considered more virulent.
In Australia PCN occurs in three quarantined areas in Victoria and was detected on a few properties near Perth in Western Australia (WA) between 1986 and 1989. A successful eradication program in WA meant that Area Freedom from PCN was successfully reinstated in 2010.
PCN at karangtengah by Andrew Taylor 2.JPG
Potato cyst nematode (Globodera rostochiensis, PCN) originated from the Andean highlands of South America and developed in close association with potato plants. Therefore it has the ability to succeed wherever it is possible to grow potatoes and has spread to many potato growing areas of the world by the transport of potatoes and infested soil.
It occurs in many countries across Asia, Africa, Europe and North and South America. Different pathotypes or races of G. rostochiensis and G. pallida are found in different parts of the world. They also damage tomatoes, aubergine and other members of the Solanaceae plant family, including nightshade.
Potato cyst nematodes live in and feed on potato roots, causing substantial damage to root systems. Populations can get to levels that significantly reduce yields before above ground symptoms become visible. In highly infested paddocks, PCN can reduce yields of susceptible cultivars by up to 90% (Figure 1).
Figure 1 Dr John Marshall in potato crop highly infected with potato cyst nematode
In Australia, PCN occurs in three quarantined areas in Victoria and was detected on a limited number of properties in the Perth Metropolitan Region in Western Australia (WA) between 1986 and 1989. A stringent eradication program was undertaken and strict quarantine controls instituted.
After continuous monitoring and three state-wide surveys over 25 years there have been no detections since 1989. WA has successfully proven PCN eradication and Area Freedom from PCN has been nationally and internationally recognised. See Area freedom from potato cyst nematode for more information. This eradication of PCN was a world first.
This nematode has the potential to cause significant damage to the Australian potato industry through crop losses and the loss of export markets. A PCN occurrence can cause considerable production constraints, but also restricts domestic and overseas market access and imposes additional costs for quarantine testing and surveillance.
Stringent quarantine protocols are in place throughout Australia should there be further detections.
The major hosts of Globodera rostochiensis are restricted to the Solanaceae family — potato, aubergine and tomato. WA weeds which are known hosts include Solanum nigrum (blackberry nightshade), as well as numerous other Solanaceous weeds.

Colorado hasn't lacked for high-performing management-side employment and labor and employment attorneys. And it's a good thing, too; as the state's economy has grown in recent years, so has its workforce, which naturally increases employers' demand for legal advice on issues ranging from discrimination to immigration.
When it comes to most of the labor and employment attorneys recognized as year's Best Lawyers, it would be unfair describe their practices as merely labor and employment. The Best Lawyers honorees Law Week interviewed for this article have a cross section of niches that illustrate just how many issues workplace law touches.
And with a growing state economy and shifting regulations at the state and federal level, they're all pretty busy lately.
"Overall I would expect employment law demand … for outside legal services to typically be slightly higher than in recent years," said Austin Smith, the managing shareholder of Ogletree Deakins Nash Smoak & Stewart's Denver office. Including Smith, the firm's Denver office has five Best Lawyers honorees in labor and employment categories, the others being John Combs, David Powell, Christopher Thomas and Cole Wist.
Smith said specialty areas of employment law like immigration look especially primed for growth. Combs and Thomas cover that niche, dealing in nonimmigrant visas and employment verification compliance programs for employers, among a range of other issues. The Trump administration's focus on immigration law enforcement has understandably increased the demand for this practice area.
With the current administration, Thomas said, "We're seeing a much greater focus on compliance and the ongoing effort to curtail immigration even in the legal context." That means more employers will be defending their hiring and compliance practices related to immigration, through litigation if necessary.
Wist's practice focuses on workplace safety issues for his largely industrial clientele, which has included mining, construction and oil and gas companies. He's also been an especially active state legislator as House District 37's Republican representative. He brings his perspective from the capital to clients when it comes to state and federal employment issues. Specifically, he has an eye for how current or pending legislation could raise or relieve compliance burdens on employers.


The Exige might have diverted somewhat from Lotus founder Colin Chapman's 'add lightness' mantra, but the bigger, weightier sports car comes with a corresponding increase in V6 supercharged punch to counter any mass it's gained. The key Lotus attributes remain, too, sensation being high up the list of priorities, not just raw speed, but the weighting, precision, and feel on offer from the steering and brakes, and the way it manages to ride with comfort despite its clear focus. The Exige is a spectacularly impressive and able sports car then, though with that comes some obvious compromises. It's cramped inside, visibility out is limited, and there's nowhere to carry anything. But then you don't buy a car like this with practicalities in mind; the Exige, in either Sport 350 or Sport 380 forms, is a wonderful, engaging drivers' car, which will keep up with those costing many multiples more, which is part of the joy of it.
Did you know? Are you a Lotus and Bay City Rollers fan? You can option the Exige Sport with tartan seats. Bye Bye Baby indeed.

A proposed bill will allow the French government to seize one's property if one is not vaccinated against COVID-19.
The French government has not proposed any bill that would allow the seizure of property or assets based on a person's COVID-19 vaccination status.
The French government has adopted a bill to make COVID-19 vaccinations essential for health workers and require a strengthened health pass in various social venues. However, there is no law passed by French parliamentarians that would allow any property to be seized if a person has not been vaccinated against COVID-19. Since July 2021, the French government has not introduced any such law. There hasn't been any new legislation introduced recently.
From August 2021, a bill was passed, according to which a permit will be required to enter restaurants and pubs and for long-distance train and aircraft travel in France. The bill will be in effect till November 15, 2021.

Seven of 31 patients undergoing small-bowel shunt for obesity have developed articular symptoms, an incidence of 23%. All affected patients had a jejunocolostomy instead of a jejunoileostomy. Most of the articular manifestations were transient, lasting only 2 months, but in two patients they were quite severe and lasted over 24 months. In one patient, because of the severe articular symptoms, reconstitution of her bowel to the normal anatomical sequence was performed; she immediately had complete relief and resolution of her symptoms. Apparently the abnormal position of the bowel in some way promoted the development of arthritis in this patient. Intestinal bypass may lead to an arthropathy similar to the more classical enteroarthropathies, and this possibility must be considered when evaluating the total morbidity of the surgical shunt procedure for obesity.

Shareholders Revolt Over BP Chief's $20M Pay Package
A majority rejected a remuneration report, which awarded Bob Dudley a $19.6 million pay package even though profits are down and thousands of job cuts are planned.

In this March 6, 2013 file photo, BP Group Chief Executive Bob Dudley speaks at the IHS CERAWEEK energy conference in Houston. BP said it's ready to listen to shareholder concerns about its executive compensation policy after some of the company's largest shareholders opposed plans to boost CEO Bob Dudley's pay package by 20 percent even after earnings plunged.
AP PHoto/Pat Sullivan
LONDON (AP) — British energy producer BP has suffered a revolt by shareholders who objected Thursday to increasing Chief Executive Bob Dudley's pay package by 20 percent after profit plunged last year.
Almost 60 percent of shareholders rejected the remuneration report, which awarded Dudley a $19.6 million pay package even though the company experienced a drop in profit and planned thousands of job cuts worldwide. But the vote was only advisory, and merely registered displeasure.
The company said it got the message — and promised to review its remuneration policy ahead of next year's meeting. New proposals are expected to be put forward for shareholder approval in 2017. "We hear you," Chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg said in excerpts released Thursday. "We will sit down with our largest shareholders to make sure we understand their concerns and return to seek your support for a renewed policy."
Aberdeen Asset Management, which manages more than $411 billion, was among those complaining BP's award system was too complex. A representative from the Church of England also questioned the morality of such a rise, given that Britain is undergoing a time of fiscal austerity.
Shares in BP fell almost 14 percent in 2015. Its earnings plunged 91 percent in the fourth quarter, though much of that can be attributed to falling global oil prices. Brent crude, the benchmark for international oil, fell 34 percent last year and hit a 12-year low of $27.10 a barrel in January. It traded at $44.37 on Thursday, having been above $100 a barrel as recently as September 2014.
The company also has been paying off costs related to the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, which is still weighing on earnings. Underlying replacement cost profit, an industry standard to measure earnings, fell to $196 million from $2.2 billion in the same quarter a year earlier.
Ann Dowling, a non-executive director of BP, stressed in remarks ahead of the vote that the existing pay policy had been based on "true underlying performance — how Bob and the team manage the aspects of the business over which they have control— strategy, operations and safety." She defended the decision, but promised to "take the feedback around this year's report seriously."
Simon Walker, the director-general of the Institute of Directors, said BP's reaction to the shareholder revolt would determine the future of corporate governance in the U.K. "The shareholders have spoken, and BP cannot shrug of this significant expression of disapproval with the CEO's pay package," he said in statement. "British boards are now in the last chance saloon, if the will of shareholders in cases like this is ignored, it will only be a matter of time before the government introduces tougher regulations on executive pay."

Mr Eazi Taps Nicki Minaj and Major Lazer for 'Oh My Gawd'
Knock knock. Mr Eazi connects with Major Lazer and Nicki Minaj on "Oh My Gawd."
The infectious dancehall-inspired jam, which borrows from reggae classics by Black Uhuru and Baby Cham, also features Nigerian-born artist K4mo and serves as the first single from Mr Eazi's upcoming EP Something Else, due in October.
The Queen pops off on her earthquaking verse. "'Cause I'm back in my bag / Throw your rag, throw your flag / And I'm runnin' up a tab, 'cause I love poppin' tags," raps Mrs. Petty.
"This record was really fun to make," says Mr Eazi, "and it's crazy how it went from hearing a K4mo intro in the studio with Fred Again, to me jumping on it and then Diplo hopping in! And Walshy hitting me up to say it's a banger–next thing Nicki is on it! Been a journey really, like two years in the making and I can't wait to perform it at my next festival!"
"Oh My Gawd" follows a string of collaborations for Nicki, who also recently worked with Ty Dolla $ign, A$AP Ferg, and 6ix9ine.
Major Lazer is also readying its fourth album for release later this year.

Look over your planting beds and decide what types of plants you need and how many. Look through your favorite native plant guides. We recommend Tried and True Missouri Native Plants for Your Yard. Plants available at the SNR booth are listed on our website. Create your dream plant list, include scientific name, and possible substitutions. Don't forget trees and shrubs! Many usefull plant lists can be found at the end of Chapter Four: Landscaping with Native Plants, A Gardener's Guide for Missouri.
Carpool with a friend if you can but make sure you have plenty of space to fit all your purchases. If you plan to hike during your visit to SNR, do it first so that your plants don't bake in your hot car. Allow plenty of time, you may spend longer shopping then you think. Bring plenty of cash and checks, some vendors don't take credit cards.
Many popular species sell out within the first few hours. Visit each vendor to look over what they have and then go back to make your purchases. Remember to pay each vendor separately.
Before planting keep your new plants in the shade, protected from strong winds, and well watered.
Read your labels carefully and look up any cultivation information that your aren't sure about. Remember to put the right plant in the right place.
Dig your planting holes larger then the pot size and then place the plant in with loose crumbly soil surrounding it. Keep the soil level of the plant in the pot the same as the soil level in your garden. Water thoroughly and mulch.
Keep a daily eye on your plants for several weeks. Make sure they haven't been dug up by a curious squirrel or armadillo. Keep them well watered and mulched. Throughout the summer check your plants once a week and water if it doesn't rain for a week. Trees need to be watered for two years and during sever droughts. Follow our Native Landscape Maintenance Schedule.
