Purchasing a home means investing a lot of money. So when you are going to spend a considerable amount, why will you buy an old home? You can apparently get the old house at a reasonable price. Then you can even do some renovations to change the look at certain points. But what is the point of staying in a place where the cabinets, countertops, arches, designs, are not aligned with your taste? Will it be a good idea to spend your money on the old building when you can purchase a new one by increasing the budget?
The apartment is not something that you are going to purchase every year. So you have to make the decision wisely. There are many new homes for sale in Huntsville which are available at lucrative prices. If you can manage to pay for the building, then it is not necessary that you have to invest in the additional features immediately. Take some time and make some money for the further modifications that you need. But from the very beginning, the house will be a representation of you. As a one-time-buy, you should definitely choose the new home.
On purchasing a second-hand home, you are actually buying a structure which was built to meet the demands of a different person. Now the needs and requirements of that person might be starkly opposite from yours. As it's not possible to change the entire framework, you have to gradually align yourself according to the taste of the previous owner. There will be no scope at all to make the home a reflection of your culture. Instead, you will have to live as a shadow of the owner using the things which were the choices of that person.

Capitol Hill Pets | The cats of Twice Sold Tales
Posted on Thursday, May 16, 2019 - 3:50 pm by AGPhoto
Jamie Lutton is a familiar face behind the counter of Twice Sold Tales. You may recognize the cats as well. While four cats live in the store, they aren't really anyone's specific pets. "They're actually here to keep mice out of the building," Lutton tells CHS. "There are lots of rats and mice because they eat the scraps from Dick's… their job is to make sure we don't have any trouble like that."

"They make a lot of friends, but they're also tax deductible, they provide ambiance, they're on my sign," Lutton says.
While you're buying your stack of used books — and if you aren't allergic — give those kitties a pet.
We ask photographer Alex Garland to follow marchers in the rain and do crazy things like trying to make yet another picture of yet another huge apartment building look interesting. We thought we'd ask him to do something a little more fun. Capitol Hill Pets is a semi-regular look at our furry, fuzzy, feathered, and finned friends found out and about on Capitol Hill.

COVID-19 changes AP tests
Anthony Furtaw '21, Staff Writer
According to the College Board, in an effort to curb the rise of the virus but also protect the needs of the students, they are allowing AP tests to be taken online with multiple choice answers excluded.
According to Justin Maccagnone '21, a strictly free-response AP exam may be a lot more difficult then a normal exam, even if it is online.
"Honestly, I kind of enjoyed the multiple choice section on AP exams, because that is the most predictable portion of the test," Maccagnone said. "The free response questions are mostly random and unpredictable, while the multiple choice section tests your knowledge on specific topics."
Ian Foy '21 said that he's not that worried about the new testing guidelines, and he thinks the ability to take it at home makes up for the fact that it's a strictly free response test.
"Being able to take the test at home is a huge advantage in the first place, so I feel like a strictly free response test is a good way to combat that," Foy said. "Obviously, some people are going to disagree with it, but I'm just happy we got the opportunity to take the test."
According to Bill Cayo, a South teacher with multiple AP classes, the College Board allowing students to take the test at home is a good substitution for the usual course of things given the situation.
"While it may be easier to take the shorter test in the comfort of your own home, it is a disadvantage that current students haven't had direct access to their teachers for weeks," Cayo said. "I think we should create the best solution we can to serve the needs of the students who find themselves in the middle of this very difficult situation."
Maccagnone said the main reason he is worried about the at home AP exam is because he hasn't had the opportunity to practice free response questions in class.
"Even though the free response section is a little bit more difficult than the multiple choice, I usually am prepared for it," Maccagnone said. "The difference this time around is I haven't had the opportunity to practice as much as I had hoped in school and that worries me."
According to Cayo, he is glad the College Board decided to take students' needs into account during this time.
"I think it is always a good idea to solicit input from students and I am personally glad they decided to go ahead with an exam," Cayo said. "I think having the exam gives us something to focus on (other than coronavirus) and helps maintain an interest and incentive in continuing to try to learn in this distance learning environment."
Foy said given the circumstances, he is hoping that people can learn to minimize stress and adapt to new changes during this pandemic.
"It's a very weird time for many people right now, and there are a lot of different things changing and happening very fast," Foy said. "We need to come together and support each other during this time and accept things as they come."

Centre also added that "appointment of Judges of the High Court is made under Article 217 and 224 of the Constitution of India. These Articles do not provide for reservation for any caste or class of person including women. However, the Government has been requesting the Chief Justices of the High Courts that while sending proposals for appointment of Judges, due consideration be given to suitable candidates belonging to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, Minorities and Women".
Presently, Supreme Court has three women judges — Justices R. Banumathi, Justice Indu Malhotra, and Justice Indira Banerjee — against the sanctioned strength of 31 judges (including CJI).

Aligning education and evaluation
March 25 2012 08:00 AM
Following Holstein Canada's lead, and with its cooperation, PDCA overhauled the U.S. standards for showmanship evaluation.
By Hoard's Dairyman staff @hoardsdairyman
The Purebred Dairy Cattle Association's (PDCA) decision to revise the PDCA Showmanship Evaluation Card, used when judging junior dairy fitting and showmanship contests, is an attempt to better connect how youth are taught and how judges evaluate.
The scorecard was previously revised in 2003. "The 2003 version of the scorecard used a concept similar to the PDCA Dairy Cattle Evaluation Unified Scorecard; there were major categories and points allocated to each category," noted Ted Halbach, former extension youth specialist and now director of the University of Wisconsin's Farm and Industry Short Course.
These major categories were: appearance of animal — 30 points, appearance of exhibitor — 10 points, and showing in the ring — 60 points. Within each of these major groupings, there were subcategories that broke down how points were to be allocated. In reality, though, showmanship judges were not evaluating this way, and there was little consistency from judge to judge during showmanship contests.
The PDCA's scorecard revision committee set out to determine the correct way to judge showmanship participants and then translate that into education programs. To do this, they looked to the model developed by Holstein Canada.
The committee, chaired by Ted Halbach, consisted of members with a wealth of showing, judging, and extension experience. Stan Henderson, Cal Poly; Bonnie Ayars, Ohio State; and Katharine Knowlton, Virginia Tech, were the U.S. contingent. Bert Stewart, a showman with an unparalleled background in the ring, was the Holstein Canada representative. Stewart also served on Holstein Canada's committee when it developed its showmanship resources.
Rounding out the group was Jason French, with the Ontario branch of Holstein Canada. French was key when working on the logistics of Holstein Canada allowing the PDCA to use the resources it had developed in 1998. Holstein Canada made another investment and revised these resources again in 2011.
"For years, Canada had followed a different track," said Halbach. "It had a more comprehensive program that coordinated its available educational materials and the judging of showmanship." Canada's methodology focused on how judges actually evaluated participants.
Holstein Canada invested heavily in its "Leading to Win" book and DVD to teach youth how to perform in showmanship. "By far, Holstein Canada had the best learning tools for showmanship," noted Halbach. The problem with teaching youth from these materials, though, was that they were then judged based on the PDCA scorecard. "Participants were confused; they learned one way and then had to return to the U.S. scorecard."
In line with how we think
"As judges evaluate participants in the contest, their philosophy is to use a process of elimination. They see a showman come into the ring and make observations about the animal (is the heifer dirty or not clipped evenly?) and the skill level of the participant," noted Halbach. "It is the natural way, the right way for someone to judge," he added.
"In addition to the lack of uniformity among judges on how to evaluate, there was no single educational product in the U.S. that was able to convey what youth were being taught about showmanship," said Halbach. "When we would show the 'Leading to Win' DVD to judges at state fairs and other competitions, we had to include a disclaimer. They would see the DVD, but this isn't how the scorecard is set up here."
Halbach, too, used the "Leading to Win" materials with students, but there was always a disconnect between what they were learning and how they were evaluated in the ring.
PDCA recognized that Holstein Canada's significant investment in two products, a showmanship book and DVD, had created a great educational resource. "Instead of recreating the wheel, our committee decided to utilize the resources that were available," he added.
Initially, there was variation among the members on what should be done. After several meetings, a suitable draft scorecard that accounted for the levels of discrimination was developed and taken to PDCA meetings around the country for review. Here, they received feedback on whether the scorecard made sense, if the traits lined up correctly, or if anything was missing.
A uniform system
"For youth showmen and judges, there is now a comprehensive resource they can go to and know what is expected," noted Halbach. Showmen are no longer being evaluated on something different than what they are being taught; there is uniformity from beginning to end.
"It is fun to be a good showman and have poise and confidence in the ring. Youth now have a visual resource where they can see how it is supposed to be done," added Halbach.
Similar to the previous scorecard, there are three breakdowns. But, instead of categories with points equating to showmanship perfection, the scorecard categories are formulated on skills.
Previously, PDCA's showmanship pamphlet had the levels of discrimination listed but not in an organized fashion. As an example, Halbach chose posing animal in the ring, under the category showing in the ring. "The first item reads, legs incorrectly posed (unbalanced, stretched, rear legs in wrong position): slight to serious discrimination; second, is animal posed downhill (front end too low): slight discrimination. The fourth item, positioning animals rear legs by stepping on rear feet or pasterns: serious discrimination."
The committee agreed that the previous scorecard organization did not allow for a quick interpretation of how to classify an action regarding discrimination severity. "The new layout for the scorecard better follows how people think. As a judge, you can look at the levels and learn what actions fall into which category. It is organized in a way that is easily interpreted versus being all mixed up," Halbach noted.
"This new breakdown will also enable judges to better communicate to youth why they placed in a certain spot and how they did in the contest."
Despite the categorization based on discriminations, the committee does not intend for the scorecard to be negative. "When taken in context with the DVD and book, it is a chance to show participants how to show the right way," noted Halbach. The larger potential is to show youth the right way to do things, the only time discriminations are brought in is in relation to the three categories.
"The scorecard changes take in account how we teach kids and have judges evaluating on the standards that are being taught," concluded Halbach.

A lot of us have tried or are likely still using spring dog beds. We could say that sleeping on spring beds or mattresses is comfortable until we were stung by a broken spring. Spring mattresses are usually the standard for many decades but the a memory foam mattresses have become additional popular to date due to the undeniable comfort too as the overall body support that many would not believe until they have tried these out on their own.
There are usually comparisons made between memory foam mattresses and spring mattresses nest love and sleep discount code entire of people could attest that they found sleeping on memory foam mattresses for better. Lying on a spring mattress does feel nice shield for your windshield it in order to body contouring as well as spinal support a spring mattress do not actually comes close to what the memory memory foam mattress could share. When you use a spring mattress, your body conforms on it. While your weight is around the spring mattress, the springs exert a resisting force against your. A spring mattress relies only on the varied associated with springs which have been pushing back against you with almost all of them getting the same effort. Since your body does not push evenly against those springs, preserving the earth . impossible for you to get proper promote. And because on this and the fact that an individual the an individual that is adapting to the spring mattress's shape, your pressure points will lead to poor flow and end up being probably be complaining about body pains or sore muscles or stiffness step wake up in the morning.
In the truth of the mattress, realizing what's good not have to experience everyone of the an individual have had experienced with a spring mattress model. A memory memory foam mattress is denser than other mattresses. Because of this, a memory foam mattress is more supportive, although it is heavier. It comes somewhere between the convenience of a really soft mattress and the stiffness and solidness of firm one, this a good compromise. A memory foam mattress of good quality is location to distribute weight evenly, in which like getting the weight held up by billions of springs. A memory foam mattress has cells that deform whenever weight is needed. Unlike a spring mattress, which springs always exert pressure against your body's weight, cells in the memory foam mattress fully compress and spread their air pressure to the adjoining panels. The pressure will probably be spread to more cells of the mattress, therefore the pressure you feel is also reduced. The responsible for greatly reducing the pressure elements. Sleeping on the mattress significantly reduces the strain points upon body by up to 80%, therefore leading to great blood stream. With these particular kind of mattresses, all the tossing and turning rendering it you in order to get a top notch night's sleep is greatly reduced.
With spring mattresses, to provide a always fiber or some sort or other of foam that is put over the springs, but these coils will result in a trampoline effect and tend to bend inward whenever pressure is applied and they this without conforming on the body's specific bumps and curves. A spring mattress acts being a shock absorber and take pleasure in the usage of the mattress. Therefore the fewer coils there are available in the mattress, the thicker the springs get. Yet another thing about spring mattresses simple fact the foam covering the springs could shrink over time, making springs exert more effort in supporting the weight, thus these susceptible to losing their shape or getting broken over a moment.
The firmness of memory foam mattresses is discovered in defining comfort. A memory memory foam mattress can be firm to supple.

At lower temperatures, the mattress is firmer or more viscous while at higher temperatures, the memory foam mattress is softer making the mattress more comforting, while it is more elastic. The mattress's temperature sensitivity is liable for the melting feeling you have whenever you are lying on it and this accentuates the foam's molding affect. This is another thing that a spring mattress does canrrrt you create. A spring mattress doesn't react to the heat of the user's total body.

(ZIZ News) — A member of the Sandy Point community has received a cheque for five thousand dollars from the Sandy Point Benevolent Society after her home was recently destroyed by a fire.
Carla Baker received the funds during a handing over ceremony on Wednesday in the office of the Deputy Prime Minister.
Former President of the Sandy Point Benevolent Society, William V. Hodge explained how the funds were raised.
"At the 6th Annual banquet of the Sandy Point Benevolent Society that was held here in St. Kitts at the Marriott, The Hon. Minister of Education made an appeal in his address to the banquet to get some support to offer to the victim Carla Baker and her family", he explained.
Deputy Prime Minister and Parliamentary Representative for Constituency #5, Hon. Shawn Richards said he was pleased with the swift response from the association.
"I am thankful that the SPBS responded so quickly in coming to the aid of the family to some extent helping to ensure that the family is able to restore or regain some of the their possessions. Carla herself would have attended the Sandy Point High school and she is from the community and I think this is really what SPBS is about; giving back to the community." the Deputy Prime Minister said.
Vice President of the Society, Police Commissioner Ian Queeley made the presentation to the victim on behalf of the association.
"On behalf of the chairperson Mr. Duggins I am pleased to hand over this cheque in the amount of $5000.00 to Carla Baker as a start to rebuilding. The minister would've explained in detail how difficult it is for persons to rebuild in the face of tragedy and SPBS is about giving back and giving back to help others go forward", Queeley expressed.
Baker then thanked everyone who assisted her family and said she was more than grateful for the donation.
Carla Baker's home in Sandy Point was destroyed in a fire on December 25, 2016.


Big Island Whale Watching Tours. Many are offered at discount pricing.
The Big Island whale season begins on Dec 16th and runs till the end of Mach.
Unlike other locations in Hawaii, the Big Island is not only the seasonal home for the famous Humpback whales but is also home year round to a selection of Sperm whales, Pilot whales, Pygmy Killer whales, the Melon Headed whales and the rare beaked whales.
There are about 78 species of whales in the Order Cetacea. Cetaceans are classified into two subgroups, Mysticeti or 'baleen whales', and Odontoceti or 'toothed whales'. Generally the toothed whales are found further off shore and can be often seen on many of the famous Kona coast Fishing Charters that ply the deep waters off the 'Big Island' of Hawaii.
Here's the real reason however that we offer Big Island Whale Watching Tours: The Humpback Whale!
No other whale matches the glitz and pizzazz of the active Humpback Whales which show up from roughly December through April. Whale watching trips abound through this period with Kona whale watching trips being the most prominent. These beautiful animals make their annual journey from the waters off Alaska to the waters surrounding the Hawaiian Islands. Here they mate, cavort and give birth to their young.
Speaking of food, during these annual visits while they are in Hawaiian waters, they actually do no eating whatsoever. They just live off the bounty of stored fat they accumulated while feasting on plankton, krill shrimp and other crustaceans in the Pacific waters of North America.
The lung capacity of full grown Humpback is approximately the volume that would be taken up by a Volkswagen bug. No wonder they can stay submerged for as long as an hour at a time.
There are a very large variety of 'whale watching Big Island style' tours.
Big Island of Hawaii whale watches generally leave both mornings and afternoons.
The following Whale Watching Tours on the Big Island of Hawaii do not pick up directly at the cruise ship but may be reached in some cases via a short walk, via a taxi cab or by a Rental Car that can be arranged by Tom Barefoot's Tours that will pick you up at the dock with a shuttle. These Whale Watching Tours are generally available to you on the Wednesday of your cruise itinerary while docking in the port of Kona.
Do you still have questions about Whale Watching Tours?
Whale watching from an airplane! How does that compare to whale watching from a boat?
Splasher's Ocean Adventures is an eco-friendly adventure rafting company which operates out of Honokohau Harbor on the Kona Coast of the Big Island. It's 19 passenger, 30' rigid hull inflatable raft offers snorkel and dolphin tours down the coast to Kealakekua Bay, whale watches in season and two exciting evening Manta Ray snorkel tours.
One of the oldest charter boat companies in the state, Captain Zodiac offers spectacular personalized and adventurous snorkel and wildlife tours along the coast of Kona on the Big Island. A variety of daily snorkel tours will take you to Kealakekua Bay on speedy 24' Zodiac Rafts and outstanding whale watches are offered during the winter season.
Kona Style offers morning and afternoon snorkeling and sailing on the "Noa Noa," our 50 foot sailing catamaran. Certified for 43 passengers and permitted for operations from Kailua pier, she boasts roomy seating in an open-air shaded cabin and up front in netted trampolines on each side of our retractable swim ladder. She provides a comfortable ride, safe and easy water access and is equipped with a fresh water shower and his/her restrooms.
So all of the island of Hawaii have whale watching and the Big Island is no different. The whales of course are primarily the humpback whales and they come from Alaska and Canada every year to visit, like a tourist. They travel thousands of miles all the way from Alaska to come to the islands of Hawaii. They come to all of them, and they just hang out here. They come to calve and to mate and presumably just enjoy life. They hang out in pods and cruise all day long around the islands and just seemingly have a great time.
They don't eat while they're here. They somehow are able to live off their body fat for months at a time and it's not until they return home that they have their next meal. So it's kind of a hibernation without being buried in the snow like a bear. They're actually active during their hibernation if you want to call it that. It's a fast, I guess, is what you would say.
Anyway, they are really exciting to watch. They're here during the months, whale season is primarily mid-December to mid-May but really the biggest part of it is going to be January, February, March. That's the heart of it. We do have whales that come earlier in October and even September, just a few scouts I guess on their way, and then some that leave in May. But really the majority of what we've got going is going to be happening in the January, February and March area.
These are neat. The whales are wonderful because any time you get on the water, you're going on a snorkel trip or you're going on a dive trip or whatever you may be doing, you have an extremely high likelihood of seeing whales, so that just adds to anything you do that time of year. But we actually have what we refer to as whale watches that are trips that go out specifically for the purpose to see the whales. On these vessels you're going out, everybody's going, "Where's the whales? Where are they?" Everybody looks. When you first make a sighting, then you start heading over to them and the idea is to get fairly close. You're not allowed to get right up on them. You have to stay 100 yards or so away and let the whales come over to you if they want to, but it's not to intrude on their territory. It's just for us to be able to see them and to get a sense of them, to enjoy them, to appreciate the whales. They really are fun.
Sometimes they do get close. These whales obviously were right up to the boat. Sometimes they'll come right up to the boat and go underneath you. That is an experience you probably won't forget especially if you're on a really small boat, which brings me to the fact that we've got a number of boats that go out to do these. We have large boats, large power boats, the double-deckers. They're a little bit more stable in the water. If it's a double-deck, from on top you really have a little bit more of a vantage point to look down to see whales and to see them on the horizon a little bit better than the boats that are just on the water.
But the advantage of being on one of the smaller boats is that you are actually right there with the whales. It is an overwhelming experience at times to be that close to whales when it happens. I say that only happens when they choose it to happen. It's luck of the draw. The Zodiac boats, the real small ones like that, are really nice for the right person. Some people may not be that comfortable on a small boat but it's great to be on a boat where you can ask questions because you'll have a bunch of the captain and he may be able to answer questions with more rapidity.
On the larger boats it's more of whale researchers on board and naturalists and there's people around that know stuff but they're giving you a little description of what's happening and that sort of thing, less of the back-and-forth. But they're wonderful any way you do it to get out to see the whales.
If you're here January, February and March, you want to make sure you get out on one of the whale watches if you can. They're also one of the more affordable tours that we have to get you out on the water.
So if you have any questions about tours or activities in Hawaii, just give us a call or check out tombarefoot.com.
The Hawaii whale watching season is the most anticipated time of year regarding activities in the islands. Whale watching is available for visitors to enjoy between December and May.
The months of December through May are a wonderful time to visit Kauai because the whales are here. These magnificent creatures spend their Winters in the waters off Kauai to breed and to bare their young.
The whale watching season is usually under way by the 15th of December and usually lasts through Easter. The best way to observe humpback whales, is by taking one of the many whale watching tours on one of a variety of whale watch boats off the coast of Oahu.
Narration and interpretation of whale movements are provided on Maui whale watching boats. You'll find yourself wanting to know more about these fascinating creatures.

Huddersfield grooming gang
Barry Sheerman MP, Kirklees Council, the Crown Prosecution Service and West Yorkshire Police have made statements
The bravery of the victims in coming forward to ensure their rapists were convicted has been held up by the authorities.
Leading representatives of Kirklees Council, the Crown Prosecution Service and West Yorkshire Police have paid tribute to the bravery of the girls whose actions secured the prosecution of the vile paedophile gang.
Today, after reporting restrictions were lifted on the naming of the 20 men who groomed, trafficked, raped and abused the vulnerable girls, Barry Sheerman MP; Det Chief Insp Ian Mottershaw, who led the investigation; Steve Walker, Kirklees Council's director of children's services and Michael Quinn, the Crown Prosecution Service's head of the complex case unit, released lengthy statements.
Huddersfield MP Barry Sheerman
Mr Sheerman has called for a wide-ranging inquiry into grooming gangs to get to the bottom of how and why they operate.
The Labour MP said he wanted to emphasise that the grooming and sexual abuse weren't just a "West Yorkshire problem".
Mr Sheerman , who claimed the authorities failed to take him seriously about child grooming in Huddersfield 10 years ago , believes lessons are still not fully being learned because not enough is known about how and why it was happening over and again.
He praised West Yorkshire Police for bringing the latest case to court but said a proper inquiry was needed to come to terms with the issues.
"This has happened so many times and in so many cities. No-one has taken this by the scruff of the neck. What happened and why did this happen?
"What are the roots of this, in so many towns? No-one has really done this."
This is the manipulative child rapist who controlled the Huddersfield grooming gang
Asked about the racial and religious element to the crimes, he said: "People will make mischief of it. We know who we are talking about."
He said "intelligent citizens" would welcome a sensible debate and would draw their own conclusions which would help rebuild community relations.
The 20 members of Huddersfield grooming gang
Mr Sheerman later told the BBC that the authorities hadn't "woken up" to grooming gangs "fast enough or positively enough, early enough".
"We have got to look back at this very carefully indeed. We did know it was happening and many of these girls were left to be exploited in the cruelest way for a long time.
"We, all of use, should look at our ourselves to see why we took so long to give those girls the rescue and support and justice they deserved."
Mr Sheerman is now calling the grooming and abuse of vulnerable girls to be investigated by the Home Affairs select committee.
Kirklees Council
Steve Walker, director of children's services for Kirklees Council (Image: YouTube)
Steve Walker, director of Children's Services, says lessons have been learned - and there are now no hiding places for abusers.
He said: "Firstly, I want to thank the survivors in these cases. This has been a long and arduous process for them. Their courage in coming forward and giving evidence has brought these offenders to justice. I hope that the outcome today will give them some closure.
"I would also like to acknowledge the professional work of West Yorkshire Police and staff within Kirklees Council Children's Services who have worked together to achieve this outcome.
"The sentences handed down to the perpetrators show that CSE will not be tolerated in Kirklees."
"These are non-recent cases. It is important to reassure members of the public that these crimes took place a number of years ago at a time when – as we know from cases in other towns and cities – the issue of CSE was not well understood.

"Since then, lessons have been learned. In Kirklees now, agencies, particularly Children's Services and West Yorkshire Police, work closely together to ensure that victims and potential victims are protected and those who seek to exploit and abuse children and young people are brought to justice. The robust arrangements that we have in place including sharing intelligence and information across all agencies, mean that there is no hiding place in Kirklees for perpetrators of abuse. However, we would also like to reassure the public that we are in no way complacent on this issue. The safety of our children and young people is our highest priority and we are always seeking to improve our response to benefit them.
For that reason we have asked independent expert Dr Mark Peel – the former Professor of Social Work at Leicester University, to undertake a review of these non-recent cases to identify whether there are any lessons we can learn.
Meet Huddersfield's 'Girl A' - groomed, raped, beaten and only discarded by gang when she fell pregnant
Through the Kirklees Safeguarding Children's Partnership, we are also in the process of commissioning an independent review of our current policies and practices by external experts to review whether there are opportunities to improve these further.
Anybody who believes they may have witnessed or may know about CSE crime should report it to police immediately.
Michael Quinn, the Crown Prosecution Service's head of the complex case unit
Michael Quinn, from the Crown Prosecution Service, said the victims remained at the heart of the case.
He said: "This case involved the cynical exploitation of a number of young girls by a group of older men in the Huddersfield area. These men deliberately targeted their vulnerable victims, grooming and exploiting them for their own sexual gratification. The men sometimes used threats and violence and plied their victims with alcohol or drugs. Throughout the years of offending, these men cared only for themselves and viewed these girls as objects to be used and abused at will.
"This series of prosecutions has been the result of two years' close collaboration between West Yorkshire Police and the CPS. The evidence, reviewed by the CPS following an intensive and complex police investigation, included hours of detailed victim evidence against a large number of potential suspects, relating to numerous allegations over six years.
Huddersfield grooming gang: The Islamophobia issue
"At the heart of this case are the victims, who have all suffered trauma as a result of their childhood abuse at the hands of these men.
"Each of the victims has shown immense courage in coming forward to assist the investigation and support the prosecution case."
"I sincerely hope the convictions of their abusers today will go some way to helping these young women to rebuild their lives. Our thoughts remain with them."
West Yorkshire Police
Det Insp Ian Mottershaw
Detective Chief Inspector Ian Mottershaw, from West Yorkshire Police, who led the investigation, said his team had been working tirelessly to bring the gang to justice.
He said: "First and most importantly, I would like to pay tribute to each and every victim who came forward firstly to report these heinous crimes, but to go through the gruelling court process which has taken nearly a year to conclude and to bravely give their accounts to us and the court. I cannot praise them enough for their courage and tenacity in helping us secure justice for them against these defendants.
"The investigation into this case has been extremely complex and the investigative team have worked tirelessly for the past five years to ensure that no stone has been left unturned. We welcome the convictions and sentences which have been passed down throughout the year to these depraved individuals, who subjected vulnerable young children to unthinkable sexual and physical abuse.
"Child sexual exploitation is abhorrent and is one of the most important challenges facing the police. Safeguarding the vulnerable and protecting victims is West Yorkshire Police's top priority. It is totally unacceptable and it is the responsibility of all agencies, communities and individuals to identify those responsible and help bring them to justice.
"However unwilling victims may be initially to engage with police or other agencies, or to give evidence against the perpetrators, they will always be supported, listened to and protected from further harm.
"West Yorkshire Police, the West Yorkshire's Police and Crime Commissioner and partner agencies are committed to doing everything they possibly can to ensure that children are safe, cared for and protected from harm. We are committed to working closely with these partners and will take positive action against those who abuse or neglect children.
"I hope the outcomes of these trials will enable the victims to start the process of putting this trauma behind them and reassure any other potential victims that we will treat them with the utmost respect and sensitivity and take positive action against perpetrators."

The Marquee Matchup of the week for Ontario University Athletics proved to be anything but -- with another blowout again on the horizon.
The Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks hosted the Carleton Ravens in what was anticipated as one of the "more exciting" games of the week. Carleton was coming off a tremendous hail mary pass to win the Panda Bowl, and the Hawks were back from a bye week after obliterating the Waterloo Warriors, and were playing in front of around 7,500 fans.
Coming into the game, expectations were that this game would be "close" -- people I talked to thought maybe a 14-point spread in favour of the Hawks, but nothing like what they saw on Saturday.
Laurier walked away handedly with a 36-3 victory and moved into fourth in the OUA.
"You're never quite sure coming off a bye week. We tried to keep our schedule as close to normal as we could, and our guys came out and played. Offence, defence, special teams all played really well," head coach Michael Faulds said.
Laurier's team is improved -- they're one of the few teams that was a "have-not" last year (albeit also considered one of the "best 1-7 teams in recent history), but found a way to reformulate their team and turn into a contender.
Their script has gone as expected -- defeat Toronto, Waterloo and Carleton and lose a close game against the Windsor Lancers, one of three teams left undefeated.
But the big issue here is that the teams that Laurier played have a combined record of 7-11.
Doesn't seem like that big of a spread, right? How about the teams that the top-seeded Western Mustangs played through the course of their first four games -- which have a combined record of 3-16.
There's a distinct line within the OUA, with four teams sitting with a 1-4 record of worse, while five teams sit with a 3-1 record or better.
The issue isn't even just with the OUA. Look at Quebec, where the Laval Rouge et Or make the RSEQ look like the easiest route back to the Vanier Cup with a recent 70-3 victory over the McGill football team.
In Week 4/5 (depending on the conference), the closest game was a 42-41 victory for the Calgary Dinos over the Manitoba Bisons Friday night.
The spread for every other game (winner/loser, not including the Calgary/Manitoba game)? Let me pull out my calculator.
"Those four wins made as an emphatic statement on the weakness of Canadian university football as one can make. There are far more have-nots than haves and except in exceptional years, the haves continue to have while the have-nots are embarrassed.
How to fix the weekly beating the have-nots are forced to suffer is something that won't be easy to figure out, but in some fashion a solution needs to be found or the popularity of university football, and on some campuses its very existence, will remain on a razor's edge."
So, how do we fix this? The lack of parity has always existed in university football, but the issue has become more and more prominent in recent years. There are those exceptional teams that make every other game interesting, but you're lucky if you get two games that keep your eyes glued to the screen.
Those have-nots are without for years and have no way to rebuild their programs while the haves run the score up; some coaches even use it as an extra practice before playing the "harder" teams.
This is the reason that major sports broadcasting stations don't take a second look at the regular season games. If the conferences can't guarantee competitive games, and most of the time will martyr their weaker opponents in lieu of their more promising candidates for the national title, how do you expect viewers nationally to be intrigued?
Laurier pulled Dillon Campbell out of the game 2.5 quarters in on Saturday. Even including the Windsor game, Campbell hasn't played a full four quarters and still leads the country in rushing yards and touchdowns. He has more rushing yards on his own than the entire York Lions team.
Laval's journey back to the ever-desired Vanier Cup becomes infinitely easier the more parity becomes a common practice in the CIS. With a sanction just laid on the Calgary Dinos, there could be some interesting weeks ahead.
But it's taken an ineligible player to make things intriguing in CanWest. What's it going to take to make the entire country interesting?
parity: the state or condition of being equal, especially regarding status or pay.

  array wavevars (2,3) a--c d--f ;
  array wavecount (2) ;
  do i=1 to dim(wavecount);

    do j=1 to dim2(wavevars);
      wavecount(i)+.w = wavevars(i,j);
    end;
  end;
  drop i j ;

A: You can also avoid arrays altogether, by using the CATT() function to convert the values to a concatenated character string, then counting the number of W's found in the string, like:
343  data want;
344    input a b c d e f;
345    wave1count=countc(catt(of a--c),'W');
346    wave2count=countc(catt(of d--f),'W');
347    put _all_;
348  datalines;

a=1 b=2 c=3 d=4 e=5 f=6 wave1count=0 wave2count=0 _ERROR_=0 _N_=1
a=W b=W c=W d=W e=W f=W wave1count=3 wave2count=3 _ERROR_=0 _N_=2
a=3 b=4 c=5 d=W e=W f=W wave1count=0 wave2count=3 _ERROR_=0 _N_=3
NOTE: The data set WORK.WANT has 3 observations and 8 variables.

352  ;
353  run;

A: Try
wave1count = nmiss(of a--c);
wave2count = nmiss(of d--f);


It is an industry that has roped in support of the State government. But to the sons of the soil of Kalinga Nagar, in the district of Jajpur, the Maharastra Seamless, a 450-crore steel plant project, is an intruder.
In a new episode of violence that is indicative of what can happen if poor people are deprived of their land and property by the State in its blind endeavor to have alliance with industry, the Additional District Magistrate of Jajpur, S. Gopalan, had to be sifted to Kalinga Hospital at Bhubaneswar, while the Inspector-in-Charge of Police of Kalinga Nagar P.S., S.C.Mohapatra had to take admission in the S.C.B.Medical College Hospital at Cuttack in critical condition caused by stone-pelting by the tribal inhabitants of the area who were deeply disturbed and frustrated by their active and aggressive support to promoters of the Plant.
The Tribals' demand was to keep in abeyance the foundation-stone-laying ceremony of the Plant till they were properly compensated against the loss of their landed property as well as their traditional and hereditary living environment. Should the officers have reported this to the Government a conciliatory step could have been taken. But they refused to heed to their request and on the contrary, helped the plant promoters to proceed. This irritated the tribals who having known no other way to ward off the intruders, resorted to pelting of stones like they do in case of dangerous animals.
By the time of filing this report, as many as 20 tribals have been arrested by the Police. Illiterate and wretchedly poor forest dwellers, they are destined to fail in obstructing engulfing of their living environment by the industrial plants, as their own government is in alliance with the rich. But the spontaneity of mob violence like this incident does vehemently demand for introspection by them who run the government.

Maine Farmland Trust and the Free Range Music Series will present an evening of music with William Joseph Jiordan and Henry Finch at the Unity Food Hub to kick-off Veggies For All's 9th year of hunger relief!
Each year VFA grows tons of vibrant, pesticide-free produce that is made available to roughly 1500 of our most food insecure neighbors -at no cost- through a network of 9 food pantries serving 25 towns. Founded by beginning farmers in 2007, they have grown and distributed 130,000 pounds of vegetables and engaged hundreds of volunteers in thousands of hours of community-based hunger relief.
Maine Farmland Trust works to protect farmland, and to keep farming in Maine viable and vital.
Located at 69 School Street in Unity, the Unity Food Hub aggregates, markets, and distributes Maine foods from family farms & small food businesses.
William Joseph Jiordan is the musical moniker for mid-coast Maine based musician/vegetable farmer William Giordano. His songs weave praise and heartbreak - for the land, for love lost and gained, for the hopeful unending generosity of humanity - into a New England mytho/mystic narrative. His stories don't distinguish their subjects. Is it a person, or is it a prairie fire? A forest or a friend? Ballads are woven together with upbeat orchestral compositions in an attempt to speak well for quiet roars of the heart, and the too-often-ever-waiting-to-be-born majesty of the human spirit.
He's currently performing an original catalog with poetic vocal arrangements with a 5-piece band. Their acoustic guitar and vocal harmony-led sound invokes feeling of something between Fiest and the Barr Brothers, with a rhythm section that might be like a marriage of the strait-forward folk rock style of Neil Young with the white-tight-funk nuance of Vulfpeck.
Giordano has spent the last decade in rural Maine, working with both rural arts and Maine's farms and food producers. He worked for with Tim Semler and Lydia Moffett to develop their the old world bakery Tinder Hearth as a wood-fired bread mecca and hub of local culture. He played guitar as a member of the Blue Hill-based dance band the Living Daylight and co-founded the folk ensemble O Deer! with Bridge Isabella Semler. He was a musical collaborator with the mythology and nature theater group the Terra Diddle Collective and Musical Director of LEAP Dance Theater with dancer, transformational theater and holistic arts-therapy pioneer Kristi Williamson.
Henry Finch is a Maine based songwriter and prolific poet. As a musician, he sings and plays Rhodes keyboard with a variety of artists and groups, including Bridge Isabella, The Soulbenders, and The Living Daylight. He has performed as a soloist and ensemble musician in Greensboro and Boone, North Carolina; Providence, Rhode Island; Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts; Iowa City, Iowa; and most recently throughout coastal Maine.


Vertical Rhythm is an important concept in web design. It has the ability to bring a design together and make different elements feel consistent on the same page.
It was impossible to change Vertical Rhythm at different viewports previously, because we didn't have the right tools. But now, with CSS Calc and CSS Custom Properties, we can change Vertical Rhythm at different viewports. This article explains how.
A rhythm unit is the base multiple you'd use for the Vertical Rhythm of your site. The value of a rhythm unit should be the line-height of your body text. Here's why.
Calculating the rhythm unit becomes easier if you use relative units (and you should). One rhythm unit will always be equal to the root font-size times the line-height of your body text.
When you create whitespace, feel free to vary the number of rhythm units. You can even include non-integer values.
Why change Vertical Rhythm at different viewports?
We tend to place larger devices (like desktops) farther away than smaller devices (like phones). We need to increase font-size to compensate for the loss in readability due to the increased distance. If your user can't read your site comfortably, they'll likely leave, they'll squint their eyes, or increase their browser's front-size (if they're savvy enough).
A little more on readability.
Readability is one of the most important elements to web typography. It's affected by three values—the font-size, line-height (or leading), and line-length (or measure) of your text. When one element changes, others may need to change to preserve readability.
When you resize a browser from a mobile view to a desktop view, you'll notice that both measure and font-size changes. As a result, leading should change too. This concept is so important that Tim Brown came up with the Molten leading approach. One example of molten leading in use is where you write your body line-height with viewport units.
But the problem is, when you change the line-height of your body text, the Vertical Rhythm unit changes. There's no way to incorporate Molten leading with Vertical Rhythm.
Now, even if you discarded molten leading and used the standard unitless line-heights, you'll probably still go insane from the amount of duplication you need to create. Not worth the effort.
CSS Custom properties (better known as CSS variables) can be used to create a rhythm unit that changes at different viewports.
To create a CSS variable, you create a custom property (hence it's name) by prepending -- to a property.
To use a custom property you created, you write var(--your-custom-property).
The great thing about CSS Custom Properties is: they can be updated dynamically within different media queries.
CSS Custom properties are updated dynamically, even within media queries!
That means you can create a --baseline property that correspond to one rhythm unit, then, use this --baseline property across your CSS to create responsive Vertical Rhythm.
To create rhythm values, you can need to use CSS Calc (because you can only calculate stuff in CSS with CSS Calc).
It can be a chore to write calc and var every time you create a rhythm value. You can simplify the calculation if create a function in a preprocessor like Sass.
Then, you can use the vr function you've created like this. Much simpler! 💃.
How does support look like?
Support for both CSS Custom Properties and CSS Calc are awesome. They're supported in all major browsers today.
CSS Custom Properties are pretty well supported!
CSS Calc is pretty well supported too!
Unfortunately, support for both CSS Calc and CSS Custom is lacking in Opera Mini (along with some lesser known browsers like QQ and Baidu); that's a bummer.
Since Opera Mini doesn't support CSS Calc and CSS Custom properties, we need to provide fallback properties each time we create a rhythm unit. This is slightly more work, but luckily, not a deal breaker.
To make it simpler, you can also create a vr function that calculates Vertical rhythm based on the base line-height value. Here's a simple version you can use (specifically for this example). If you'd like a more complete version, check out Typi, which is a library I've made to help make responsive typography simpler.
Note: I've yet to include responsive vertical rhythm in Typi yet. I hope to add it when I get some time on my hands.
Vertical Rhythm is an important typography principle we should pay attention to, as designs and developers. Unfortunately, we couldn't give it as much attention as we should because we lacked the tools to do so.
But now, we can create responsive vertical rhythm with the help of CSS Custom Properties and CSS Calc. If you create responsive vertical rhythm, make sure you provide fallback for browsers that don't support either CSS Custom Properties and CSS Calc!

Chryso () is a small town in Serres regional unit of Central Macedonia, Greece, located 12 km southeast of Serres. Since 2011 it is a municipal unit of the municipality of Emmanouil Pappas and has a population of 1,571 inhabitants. Until 1928 it was named Topoliani (Τοπόλιανη).

History

Antiquity
About 3 km south of Chryso, on a low hill, the traces of a Roman-era rural settlement was found, near where remains of a Roman arched bridge and a paved road section are preserved.

The existence of another agricultural Roman settlement has also been identified on the rocky hill (former village) of "Zeli", situated between Chryso and Agio Pnevma, from where comes a Greek funeral inscription of Roman imperial times (2nd-3rd AD century)

Dracovenator regenti  è una specie di dinosauro carnivoro vissuto nel Giurassico inferiore. È stato scoperto dal paleontologo Adam Yates nel 2005 nella Uppers Elliot formations, in Sud Africa.

Etimologia

Il nome "Dracovenator" deriva dal latino e vuol dire letteralmente "Drago cacciatore" (dal nome del vicino e famoso monte Drakensburg, montagna dei draghi).

Resti fossili
Il Dracovenator è conosciuto soltanto per l'olotipo BP/1/5243, ovvero un cranio frammentario trovato in Sud Africa. Inizialmente, i paleontologi avevano confuso il Dracovenator con esemplare di Syntarsus cresciuto a dismisura, poiché era l'unico teropode conosciuto nella Elliot formation fino ad allora.

Descrizione

Il dracovenator era molto simile ad alcuni dinosauri della famiglia Dilophosauridae, ovvero il Dilophosaurus wetherilli e Zupaysaurus rougieri: tuttavia non si è ancora sicuri della famiglia di appartenenza, anche se la favorita è proprio la Dilophosauridae. Cacciava con tutta probabilità i Prosauropodi della sua zona. Si pensa che la sua lunghezza fosse compresa tra i 5.5 e i 6.5 metri.

HANGZHOU, Oct. 25 (Xinhua) -- Artificial intelligence is beginning to be used in China's human resources services.
At the ongoing China Human Resource Service Expo 2017 in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang Province, AI is featured in many human resource service products on display. The products have strong cognition abilities and data analysis skills. The technology could also help decide which post is the most suitable for a person.
Human resources is very important but time-consuming, said Zhou Xiao, an HR manager with an internet company in Hangzhou. "The artificial intelligence could save us time and help us do a better job," said Zhou.
By the end of 2016, nearly 70 percent of China's 26,700 human resources service institutions had completed their "intelligent transformation," according to China institute of personnel science.

Huff announces Iconic partnership as WTCC heads to Asia
01/10/14 Race Preview
Former World Champion Rob Huff has partnered with one of the world's most innovative and creative online betting companies, Iconic Bet, for the remaining Asian rounds of 2014 and the entirety of the 2015 FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC).
Iconic Bet is a new, innovative online gaming site that combines online casino games and sports betting with financial markets. Only at Iconic Bet can you beat the house, beat the odds, beat the market and beat your friends.
It has recently launched a new global website, which provides a unique gambling experience based on financial markets and currency, with a bespoke peer-to-peer function.
Profiting from the rise and fall of commodities, currencies and shares was once the domain of skilled technical professionals with huge bankrolls behind them, but Iconic Bet encourages its users to leverage their insight, hunch or good feelings and play it against the market in exclusive 'Mind Games', which look like traditional casino pursuits, such as roulette, blackjack, poker and slots, but whose outcome is determined by the markets.
This announcement coincides with the start of the Asian leg of the 2014 WTCC season in China, Japan and Macau, which sits neatly with Iconic Bet's ambition to take its unique online gambling platform to the region.
Huffy – the 2012 FIA World Touring Car Champion – will begin carrying the Iconic Bet logo on his LADA Sport Granta in Rounds 17 and 18 of the WTCC at Beijing's Goldenport Park Circuit (4-5 October) and it will remain a prominent feature of his livery for the remainder of 2014 and the duration of 2015.
Damien O'Brien, founder and CEO of Iconic Bet, said: "Huffy is truly a racing icon, from his WTCC campaign to racing iconic cars at Goodwood. We're very pleased to join the team for his remaining races in Asia and for the following year. Who doesn't want to be a race car driver?"
Following the champagne and celebrations of Argentina, where an incredible drive saw Huff achieve LADA Sport's maiden WTCC podium finish at Autodromo Termas de Rio Hondo, the Briton is in high spirits going to Asia and believes his newly forged partnership with Iconic Bet could potentially be a lucrative and long-term one.
"I'm delighted to have forged this partnership with Iconic Bet because, not only is it an exciting and vibrant new gambling platform, with which I am proud to be associated, but they're a really good group of guys who love their racing and will be a welcome addition to the FIA World Touring Car Championship paddock this year and next.
"Beijing is going to be a new and interesting experience for the WTCC, as the championship venture out onto unchartered territory at Goldenport Park Circuit in a new region of China," said Huff. "At only 2.3m in length, this is the shortest track we visit and that should remove a lot of the emphasis on aerodynamics, which could play to LADA Sport's advantage. I'm expecting it to be more about mechanical grip and there's no doubt we have taken significant steps forward in recent months, so it will be exciting to see how we fare."
Huff added: "Taking everything into consideration, there are so many unknowns and I have no idea if we will be able to emulate the sort of success we had in Argentina. The goal for all three of LADA Sport's drivers is to breach the top ten in qualifying and benefit from the reversed grid pole position in race two, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that one of us makes it. The car felt better than ever in Argentina and hasn't changed since then, so we hope to improve again."

Die Aeolus ist ein Errichterschiff des niederländischen Unternehmens Van Oord. Das Schiff des Typs 187 wurde auf der Hamburger Sietas-Werft gebaut. Die Fertigstellung mit der Ausrüstung der vier 87 Meter langen Hubbeine aus Stahl erfolgte bis Juli 2014 bei der Lloyd-Werft in Bremerhaven. Bei dem Schiff handelt es sich um das erste und einzige auf einer deutschen Werft gebaute Errichterschiff für den Bau von Offshore-Windparks.

Beschreibung
Die Sietas-Werft beteiligte sich früh an der Entwicklung und dem Entwurf von Errichterschiffen und erhielt im Dezember 2010 als erste deutsche Werft einen Auftrag für ein Errichterschiff der dritten Generation. Das Schiff ist eine Kombination aus Transportschiff, Kranschiff und Offshore-Plattform und wurde für das niederländische Wasserbauunternehmen Van Oord gebaut. Erstmals platzierte Van Oord den Auftrag im Dezember 2010 bei der Sietas-Werft, die diesen im Rahmen des Insolvenzverfahrens nicht abwickeln konnte. Nach erneuter Vereinbarung erfolgte der neue Auftrag für das Errichterschiff im Februar 2012. Die Sietas-Werft als Architekt und Integrator lieferte das Errichterschiff zusammen mit ihrem ehemaligen Tochterunternehmen Neuenfelder Maschinenfabrik (NMF) ab, das zwischenzeitlich vom norwegischen Unternehmen der TTS Group übernommen wurde. NMF stattete das Schiff mit einem Offshore-Spezialkran mit bis zu 900 t Hubkraft aus.

Die Kiellegung des Schiffes erfolgte am 23. Dezember 2011. Der Rumpf wurde am 30. März 2013 ausgedockt und das Schiff am 17. Februar 2014 an den Auftraggeber übergeben. Die Ablieferung der Aeolus war ursprünglich für Ende Juli 2013 geplant. Nach der Ablieferung wurden auf der Lloyd-Werft in Bremerhaven die Hubbeine installiert. Das Schiff wurde am 21. Juni 2013 in Rotterdam getauft. Taufpatin war die Ehefrau des Bürgermeisters der Stadt Rotterdam.

Die Option auf den Bau eines zweiten Schiffs bei der Sietas-Werft wurde von der Van-Oord-Gruppe nicht eingelöst, da der Bau der Offshore-Windparks ins Stocken geriet.

Die Aeolus ist 139,4 Meter lang und 38 Meter breit. Der Tiefgang beträgt 5,7 Meter. Das Schiff ist für den Einsatz in bis zu 45 Meter tiefem Wasser konzipiert. Es verfügt über eine Transportkapazität von 6.500 Tonnen (tdw) und eine 3200 m² große, flexibel nutzbare Decksfläche mit einem vollständig integriertem Kran, der 900 Tonnen Last bei einer Auslage von 30 Metern heben und bis zu einer Höhe von circa 120 Metern über Wasser arbeiten kann. Das Schiff ist mit 26 Einzel- und 24 Doppelkabinen für das Besatzungs- und Service-Personal, das mit 74 Personen angegeben wird, ausgestattet. Die große Erfahrung der Sietas-Werft im Bau von Schwergutschiffen führt zu der Besonderheit, dass die gute Stabilität der Aeolus im Hafen einen vollen Kranbetrieb ohne Jacking-Operation ermöglicht.

Vier Hauptmaschinen von Caterpillar mit je 4.500 kW verleihen dem Schiff zusammen mit vier Generatoren von Siemens über vier elektrische Fahrmotoren und Verstellpropeller eine Geschwindigkeit von 12 Knoten.
