Compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012: The DPO
Peter M. Bantilan
Business entities almost always deal with data, whether it is data that is generated internally (e.g., information about the company's own personnel) or from outside sources (e.g., information gathered about its customers, clients, etc.). All these data are protected by the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and the company has the obligation under the law to implement such protection.
Each company that collects data is considered by the law as a Personal Information Controller and those within the company that process them as Personal Information Processors. The latter could be the accounting department, the human relations department, or any such department or personnel within the company that gathers the data and process them in anyway. The HR department would have, for example, the medical records of each employee which it uses or processes for the purpose of securing health and medical insurance for everyone. Necessarily, the HR department will be required to release such data to the prospective HMO provider and so it is important to note that from the moment of the collection of the data, the application of the law kicks in.
Thus, the first ever obligation of a business entity in relation to the DPA is to appoint a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who shall be accountable for the organization's compliance with the DPA. This is required by Section 21 of the DPA (See also Circular 16-01 and Advisory 17-01 by the NPC). It is required that the appointment of a DPO be notarized and then filed with the National Privacy Commission, that the DPO's contact details are easy to find, and that there is a commitment that the DPO undergo continuing education. There must also be evidence that the DPO's recommendations are taken into consideration when the company makes decisions that affect data.
While there are many obligations that will have to be complied with by businesses who deal with data under the law, designating the DPO is the first essential step to compliance.

We don't see enough Waltham around here.
I still have my Waltham that I wore as a kid over 40 years ago. Unfortunately, it is from the era of decline with a cheap 6 jewel Swiss calibre. Not really working for a long time now.

This razor is sooooooo amazing. It is better then they describe. I shave my head every day. I bought the gold skull shaver, blades seem to last for ever. I clean mine after every use and 1 year later I felt it was time to replace. I went on line to order replacement heads, 4 days later my order shows up and skull shaver sent me a complete manicure kit !!! I was blown away. Thank you very much. For any of you that any any doubt about trying this razor, DO NOT doubt this technology.

Hip Thrusts and Climate Change Meet At Last on Jane Fonda's TikTok
Illustration: Elena Scotti (Photos: Getty Images, AP, YouTube
At the beginning of April, which, for many, marked a new month of staying at home, Jane Fonda joined TikTok. Clad in a red leotard and yoga pants, the 82-year-old actor executed a few leg lifts, instructed those watching to Google her, and urged everyone to join her for a live workout later that day. "There are too many workouts happening right now on television and on computers," Fonda said. "What I would really like you to do is work out with me for the planet."
Unforeseen circumstances prevented me from working out with Jane Fonda that Friday, but I dutifully signed up for text alerts in hopes of catching her next workout. Instead, I received a barrage of texts from a bot directing me to participate in Fire Drill Fridays at home, an extension of Fonda's weekly climate change activism, optimized for the current moment. Unfortunately, there was no further information about Fonda's famous workout routine—now, when I need it more than ever.
Thanks to quarantine, at-home workouts of all stripes have exploded, as fitness studios closed and quickly reached for ways to maintain contact with patrons trapped in their homes and eating bread, day in and day out. Peloton, Mirror, and other at-home fitness solutions are enjoying a rise in sales. Ads for at-home workouts from companies like obé and Beach Body Fitness flit between pictures of sourdough starters and completed puzzles on Instagram. YouTube yoga—including YouTube yoga for kids—is booming. Millions are thinking about working out at home, if not actually doing it, which means it is high time for Jane Fonda's workout, a defining pop culture phenomenon of the 1980s, to make its illustrious return.
The workout itself, which I performed over a very sweaty half an hour, is hard but not like a HIIT workout. There are no burpees, mountain climbers, or box jumps in Fonda's gym—just lithe, flexible people with dancer's bodies, dressed like extras from A Chorus Line, stretching their Gumby limbs encased in shiny spandex. Fonda's leotard-leggings combo is inexplicably belted, and her leg warmers match her jazz shoes. Unlike modern fitness videos, which always feature someone in the back row gamely smiling their way through a modified version of the routine, everyone participating in Jane Fonda's exercise class seems to be pretty capable of everything required of them and performs the exercises with nary a grunt and little-to-no visible exertion. Most impressive is Fonda herself, who is incredibly flexible and in good enough shape to narrate everything she's doing without heavy breathing.
As a workout, Fonda's exercise program is along the lines of a barre class or any other dance-based workout routine that aims to lengthen and tone, with lots of small muscle movements with no weights. There are hip thrusts, arm circles, and the infamous leg lift section, which looks easy but is actually very difficult, especially when Fonda requested that I perform the move depicted below, which I cannot reliably explain with words, but I can say that it felt like doing an arabesque on my stomach, while small knives stabbed me in the lower back.
Historically, I abhor anything that is remotely physically uncomfortable, but earlier this year, I started dragging myself to the gym, so that I could spend one hour grunting ineffectually on the leg press machine in a gesture towards physical fitness. Once confined largely to my home, I bought a pair of dumbbells and embarked upon a haphazard strength training routine with the assistance of an app called Fitbod that algorithmically generates bodyweight workouts for me so I don't have to think. This has been a savior, but the movements I've been doing are less refined than Fonda's small, incremental pulses. Sure, squats suck, but not nearly as much as trying to engage my adductor muscles the way Fonda wants me to.
Revisiting the video is worth it for the aesthetics alone, which call to mind not only A Chorus Line, but also the iconic Mousercise video from roughly the same era, which imprinted upon me as a child. Featuring Kellyn Plasschaert, who resembles a young Rue McClanahan, and a roomful of enthusiastic children, Mousercise premiered in 1983 and very clearly took some of its cues from Fonda's movements. Minus Mickey, the exercises themselves wouldn't be out of place in a standard barre class or any other dance-based workout today, which is unsurprising, given the workout's history.
Fonda became a fitness guru decades into her acting career. After breaking her foot on the set of The China Syndrome, Fonda was in search of some sort of low-impact physical exercise that would allow her to maintain her figure—healthier than the disordered eating she had maintained for most of her life, and much more sustainable. As Mental Floss points out, the moves in her original video were actually the work of her business partner, Leni Cazden, whose classes she discovered while looking for a temporary replacement for ballet. But Fonda made them famous when she released the workout video in May 1982, straight into the homes of millions of American women who were eager to begin their fitness journeys from the comfort of their own homes.
The success of Fonda's workout empire also contributed to her work as an activist, as Karina Longworth recounts in her You Must Remember This miniseries, "Jean and Jane"; the revenue she earned from the two workout books that preceded her video went to help her then-husband Tom Hayden's campaign for state Assembly. Hayden was one of the co-founders of the Students for a Democratic Society, and also stood trial as one of the Chicago Seven responsible for the large-scale protests at the 1968 National Democratic Convention. Fonda was his main financial support. As millions of women across the country donned leotards, shiny lycra, and headbands to perform hip thrusts from the privacy of their own living rooms, every VHS tape sold put money into Hayden's election campaign and lined the coffers of the Campaign for Economic Democracy, a progressive political organization that rallied around a need "to respond to Reaganomics and the need to reform and revitalize the Democratic Party." Hayden's politics aligned neatly with Fonda's, who has spent a large part of her career in the shadow of her activism, most famously for anti-war causes.
That political activism continues today, with her weekly protests in Washington D.C. against the government's general inaction against climate change. Fire Drill Fridays, as they have come to be known, are often attended by Hollywood's finest, who are now using their platforms to stand in solidarity with youth climate change activists like Greta Thurnberg. As part of her campaign, Fonda dons a distinctive red coat, which stands out in the various photographs of her publicity-garnering arrests for unlawful demonstration. Now that in-person protests are off the table, Fire Drill Friday has gone digital, pivoting to TikTok— a savvy reference to her own history as the original fitness influencer. Invoking her aerobics career in the brief clip is a clever bait and switch—after a few leg lifts, the camera cuts to Fonda in her red coat, pleading for participation, closing the gap on her two disparate identities.

Flavoured rum sector will be bigger than white rum in off-trade by 2020
By Sonya Hook
The flavoured and spiced rum sector will overtake white rum as the most popular type of rum bought in the off-trade by the end of 2019, according to the WSTA's latest Market Report.
Total UK spirit sales last year were worth £11 billion and the standout performers within this were rum and gin, according to the report.
The UK's total rum market is now worth just over £1 billion with almost 35 million bottles sold in 2018.
White rum is still the most popular rum in the off-trade but sales of flavoured and spiced rums are growing fast, with almost 10 million bottles sold in the last 12 months, which is around half a million bottles less than white rum.
Meanwhile, in the on-trade, golden rum is the most popular choice.
The growth of this sector has been bolstered by an increasing amount of new brands on the market and a growing interest in premium craft spirits in the UK.
In 2006 there were 50 rum brands in the UK but this number is now close to 200.
Miles Beale, chief executive of the Wine and Spirit Trade Association said: "It's been another great year for rum sales in the UK. British drinkers have more choice than ever before when it comes to rum. Craft spirits are 'of the moment', and an increasing number of artisanal spirits producers are crafting their own interpretations of the spirit- often alongside their gin range.
"The decision by the Chancellor last Autumn to freeze spirit duty was the right one, and further supportive action is vital in 2019 to ensure that the craft spirits boom can continue, and British drinkers can continue to enjoy experimenting with their drinks choices."
Dan Buckland, co-founder, Drum & Black Rum Co, added: "Consumers are becoming more adventurous with their beverage choices, and the more exploration they do, the more knowledgeable they become. They're seeking brands that define them as individuals, and the craft rum movement in the UK is showing more people that rum has the potential as the drink of choice.
"Until now, spiced rums have been associated with lower quality mixing spirits. However, if crafted as a premium sipping rum with an innovative flavour profile, spiced rum can become an accessible alternative for spirit drinkers with more refined tastes as well as a new, exciting luxury drink for those exploring the rum world.
"Whilst Drum & Black and a small number of British rums are actually distilled on home soil, we will see that most new brands rely on bulk imports. I am looking forward to seeing more distilleries open here in the UK. As with the gin movement, this is when we will start to see real creativity in the craft of new British brands."

Notre Dame Overdue to Play Better Basketball vs. Wichita State, Says Dick Vitale [AUDIO]
Armen Williams
ESPN Basketball Insider Dick Vitale has put much stock into No. 3 Notre Dame since before the tournament began. While they still haven't played as well as he had envisioned, the Fighting Irish have squeaked into the Sweet Sixteen after a four point win against No. 14 Northeastern and a three-point victory against No. 4 Butler.
"I'm high on them because they're really an efficient basketball team," said Vitale. "They find a way to make good plays at the right time. They take good shots. They have not shot the ball as well as they did during the year. They're due to shoot the ball better and are going to have to do that against Wichita State."
On Thursday at 7:15 PM ET, Notre Dame will go up against No.7 Wichita State, who is fresh off an upset against No.2 Kansas.
"Wichita State's got a dynamite guard combination. You got to like [Fred] VanVleet, [Ron Baker], they know how to win.
"Think about this, Wichita State was unblemished last year, who beat them? Kentucky! Wouldn't it be unbelievable if Wichita State beats the Fighting Irish and Kentucky does what they're supposed to do, beat West Virginia, guess who plays for the right to go to the Final Four?
"Wouldn't it be the payback of ultimate big time if they were to stop Kentucky and stop them from being unbeaten!?"
Top-seeded seed Kentucky squares off against No. 5 West Virginia on Thursday and could be on a crash course to play either the underdog Shockers or the waiting-to-explode Irish.

To the Baltic Countries as Pilgrims of Peace and Trust
Riga, September 2014
From 26 to 28 September 2014, a gathering led by the Taizé Community was held in Riga, the capital of Latvia. For several years, the Lutheran and Catholic archbishops had extended an invitation. It was during the Strasbourg meeting that the news was confirmed by Brother Alois: an upcoming stage in the pilgrimage of trust on earth would take place in Latvia five years after the meeting in Vilnius, in neighbouring Lithuania.
Saturday evening prayer in St. Peter's Church
Elizabete, from Latvia, was part of the team of volunteers who helped during the meeting. She writes:
It was fantastic how many young people came to our hometown of Riga. As a volunteer I was excited and thrilled to be a small part of these three beautiful days.I experienced great trust and love from these young pilgrims. Being together in prayers in Old St Gertrude church and in St Peter's, meeting new people and seeing friends from Taizé made me realize that God is working wherever we go or live. I think that after these days we have more hope in Latvia and in Eastern Europe than ever before.
The welcome in Riga and hospitality in families
In addition to young Latvians, several hundred participants came from the other Baltic countries, Ukraine, Poland, Belarus and Russia. Still others came, in small groups or individually, from various European countries.
Upon their arrival, the groups and individuals were invited to go to the Church of St. Gertrude, where the welcome took place. Each participant then received a program available in different languages (Latvian, English, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish) and was assigned to a host parish. In this parish, the youth were sent to their host families; all the participants stayed with local people. Two of them, Talitha et Philip from Germany, said after the first day:
When we got to Old St. Gertrude Church, where everyone was welcomed at first, we experienced a feeling of hospitality, warmth and joy. The organisers of the Riga meeting managed to recreate the special Taizé atmosphere in this place and we suddenly felt at home. It is our first meeting outside of Taizé and we are looking forward to share our faith and opinions with others and to contribute to an enriching experience.
Prayer in St. Gertrude Church
Another young person, Sophie from Sweden, described the hospitality she received from someone from Riga:
My host was a young woman about my age who welcomed me to her small flat. We discovered many similarities between us, despite our different lives. She had a lot of questions about faith and religion and I have a view on religion she was not used to from her country. We sat up in the evenings, drinking tea, discussing religion and what makes you a Christian. It was very interesting. I encouraged her to come to the Taizé prayer in St. Peter's church on Saturday evening, and she really liked it. Especially with the candles.
Brother Alois emphasized gratefulness towards the Churches and host families of Riga in one of his meditations:
For us brothers of Taizé, it is a joy to be in Riga for this stage of the pilgrimage of trust on earth. […] We would like first of all to thank those who are welcoming us. Among the gifts that God has given to Latvians, there is that of hospitality. And young people of the Baltic countries still have many other values to share. We look forward to being able to discover them.
The common prayers brought together 2000 people in the centre of Riga
Throughout the weekend, the central place of the meeting was the Lutheran Church of St. Peter, in the historic center of Riga, where the times of prayer were held. On Saturday night, both the Catholic and Lutheran archbishops, Janis Vanags and Zbignevs Stankievics, greeted the participants in the meeting.
A representative of the Orthodox Metropolitan of Riga was also present, because the Orthodox Church supported the meeting by leading two workshops and welcoming the participants at the Orthodox liturgy on Sunday morning. Baptist and Methodist communities also participated in welcoming the young people.
The workshops on Saturday: an impressive array of topics
On Saturday afternoon workshops were held on a variety of topics, including: "Silence and inner prayer" with the Lutheran archbishop; "Unity, reconciliation, community" with the Catholic archbishop; "Introduction to Orthodox iconography", "Serving the poor."
Two young lawyers working for human rights led a workshop on the topic of "The importance of reconciliation in today's society." After the experience Ilze et Arina from Latvia wrote:
During our two workshops, we were glad to see that people were sharing their thoughts and doubts. There is still a lot of uncertainty and young people need the encouragement which comes from trusting God and God's promise to us. But we also realized that they are willing to take that first step towards becoming peacemakers in their communities. The first step does not have to be a grand gesture or an act of great influence; it can be a simple conversation or just the willingness to listen to those who have hurt us. It is amazing that through listening to the experiences of other people and sharing our own we came to the same thought that Brother Alois later expressed in Sunday's prayer – peace and reconciliation first of all start with each one of us.
Regarding this workshop a young woman from Sweden, Martina, said:
After the meeting in Riga, and especially after discussing the meaning of "becoming the salt of the earth" and attending the workshop about reconciliation in society, I started to reflect a lot. What can we do as just ordinary people to make this world what it's supposed to be? One of the biggest dangers in conflicts between people, nations and/or ethnicities is the dehumanizing of the other side. I think that only when we start treating the other person or group as actual human beings can we reach reconciliation.
Workshop in the centre of Riga
A meeting marked by current difficulties
On a few occasions, especially during the group sharing, the history of the land of Latvia and questions of identity arose. The tense situation at present made even more significant the presence of many young people from Ukraine and Russia, mentioned by Brother Alois one evening
These days we share the joy that comes from God, but we do not forget that each of us also carries with us a burden, sometimes a very heavy one. For some it is personal suffering, for others an absence of future prospects, still others carry with them the burden of their own people. I think especially of those from Russia and Ukraine. . […] What brings us together these days in Riga? In a world where we see so many conflicts, armed ones or not, we have come as pilgrims of peace and trust. We experience the joy of being together in great diversity, and of feeling deep solidarity. We thank God for bringing us together, beyond borders and cultures, in a unique communion which is the Church.
Two young Russians, writing after the meeting, also spoke of the difficult regional context. Varia, from St. Petersburg, had this to say:
During one of the prayers I understood how happy I am to be among people who are joyfully praying to the Lord together, where we forget about division and enmity. Again and again I saw that a simple friendly attitude, welcoming and hospitality, helps us to overcome prejudices. Common prayer in our own languages was a sign of friendship. It was a visible part of the meeting. The invisible part is the experience of God's presence so close to our hearts.
And Misha, from Moscow, wrote:
In our region we have lots of hard feelings due to a complicated history of relations and even to some ongoing conflicts. So I went to the meeting in Riga hoping for a miracle – of just being together before the Lord. Not judging, but praying. Together. And for each other. And I'm thankful to the organizers of the meetings for not pretending that those issues are not important but speaking of them always with great care and tact. Besides, in the context of the situation in the region, singing together in Russian at a meeting in Riga – despite those difficulties – was a sign of hope for me.
The result of a lot of preparation
The weekend meeting was prepared for several months, especially by a team of young people from different Churches, supported by their pastors. In the spring, two young volunteers sent by Taizé also came to Latvia. Maria from Romania was one of them:
Since we first visited Latvia in May 2014, during our two and a half week visit there I could see and feel the big desire of Latvians to have this meeting – the desire to share, to welcome others, to be known and to create new bonds in the human and Christian family. It's a great joy these days to be here and to see that the meeting is taking place – to see familiar faces radiating so much joy, the church full of young people and to feel the unity beyond our limits. As always, this meeting is a great sign of hope for those who are directly or indirectly involved.
The other volunteer, Mary from Korea, also took part in the meeting:
We are very happy to be back in Riga! As volunteers from Taizé we were in Latvia in May to inform and invite young people to this Baltic Meeting. And now the meeting is taking place with a beautiful atmosphere. Latvians are very happy to welcome people from different countries. We pray together, sing together, eat together – everything "together" in God. It is very beautiful to see and feel this. God bless us and let us be attentive to each other always as we are now.
Morning prayer in St John's Lutheran Church


Most dedicated Pilates studios have Pilates mats which are crafted from wood bases and upholstered artfully. Unlike yoga, in such studios, Pilates students do not arrive to workout with their own mats. So what do Pilates practitioners do when they want to work out away from the studio? A yoga mat? Not quite. They use at home exercise mats are specifically suited for Pilates.
Before you load up your shopping cart, read on to find out what styles, specifications, and materials are appropriate for a Pilates workout. If possible, test-drive a mat before making a commitment.
Select a mat that is one half inch thick. Newer mats that have very dense foam may provide suitable cushioning at just three eights of an inch. Any lower than that and you may feel the effects of a bruised spine after performing your mat.
Standard fitness mats are roughly two feet wide by six feet long. A full Pilates mat routine can certainly be accomplished on a standard yoga mat. However, you may have more options as your practice advances on a slightly wider mat. If space is not a limiting factor, search for an old school gymnasium mat where you can stretch out and use the full surface available.
Select a mat that suits your personal space. If possible, a variety of industrial size fitness mats are available in many sizes. A four foot by eight-foot mat is perfectly viable for a home Pilates mat.
Some newer materials are successfully combining density and cushioning in a lower profile, thinner mat. What's most important is that you physically test the mat. You have two options with respect to density. A thick dense mat that provides enough cushioning for your spine in a very firm mat. But you can also choose a gymnast mat which is much thicker yet far less firm. The softness of a gymnastics mat means you'll get less support and that can actually provide a bigger challenge to the body.
Select a mat that is dense enough to pad your spine but selects cushioning according to preference. Firm mats have their place and softer mats are also very useful for Pilates at home.
If space and budget are not an issue and you are looking for an authentic at home Pilates experience, consider going pro level. Pilates manufacturers sell to studios as well as individuals. Studio style mats have options like wooden dowels for your hands, accessories like small boxes and straps that hook on for your feet. Price out your favorite, customize your color and wait for the huge crate to ship your mat directly to you. Professionals outfit their studios from a few key suppliers including Gratz Pilates, Pilates Designs by Basil, Balanced Body, and Peak Pilates. You can also find plenty of used Pilates equipment online if you take some time to investigate.

After Davos: Lessons for Impact and Social Investors from the WEF 2015
By Marta Maretich @maximpactdotcom
Davos: Returning to normal after WEF15 but what will the forum mean for us?
The World Economic Forum has been and gone, leaving the Davos snow more than a little trampled. Now that 2500+ of the world's most powerful people have flown home in somewhat fewer (it seems) than 1700 private jets, what do we know about what's coming in 2015? And, more specifically, what lessons did the Forum hold for impact and social investors?
Impact and social investing are part of the global economic reality, so the larger trends identified at Davos will be felt in our sector, too. Quantitative easing in the Eurozone, the unpredictable fallout from the Grexit, the slowdown in growth in China and India, its surge in the US, will all shape the world economic outlook for 2015 and will inevitably have their effects on the social sphere. And yet it was interesting to notice certain issues — some our own favorite topics — were more prominent on the agenda than they have been in previous years.
The financial crisis pushed climate change off the agenda; the presence of Gore as the opening act at Davos seems to indicate that it's now back on. The ex-US Vice President (and his musical friend Pharrell Williams) were on hand to drive home, once again, the message that we need to act fast to avert disaster. This can't have been news to the delegates at Davos, all of whom have heard Gore's arguments before and yet have presided over the increase in the use of fossil fuels we've seen in recent years.
Among those in the know, real indicator that things are changing was the advocacy of Lord Stern, Tony Blair's climate change adviser. At Davos, he argued cogently that fossil fuel is not, as it long appeared, cheap anymore, and that alternatives are now getting cheaper. Governments don't have to make a tradeoff between growth and preventing climate change, he said, and his argument seems to be gaining traction in the world of business. It's one that impact and sustainable investors have long understood, of course, but the mainstreaming of sustainability should bring new opportunities for impact investors and climate-friendly social enterprises alike, especially when it comes to collaborating with business and government.
Related to the issue of climate change is that of energy, another hot topic at Davos. The energy landscape is changing, partly because of the wider acceptance of the reality of climate change, but also because alternative energy sources are coming into their own. A plunge in oil prices, due in large part to the availability of cheap gas from fracking, is driving oil-producing nations to re-examine their strategies, diversify their activities and rethink their future. It's also fanning the flames of the divestiture movement, which is gaining ground as the value of fossil fuel stocks, for so long the central pillars of many portfolios, continues to fall.
For impact and social investors, this shift in focus will help in two ways. First, the exit of capital from fossil fuels could spur a renewed wave of investment in existing forms of alternative energy such as wind, solar and hydrogen, and in energy efficient technologies, all areas where impact investing has a track record. Second, turning away from fossil fuels will require more investment into developing new alternative sources of energy. Investment in energy R&D and in companies rolling out alternative energy solutions to new markets will be attractive opportunities for social investors.
The specter of Thomas Piketty was found haunting many of the sessions at Davos. The French economist's landmark tome, Capital in the 21st Century, has sparked wide-ranging debate about the nature and role of capital in our times. One of its impacts is to highlight the growing problem of wealth inequality, an important theme threading through many discussions at WEF15.
The Economist explains Piketty in four paragraphs
Different delegates working in different contexts and sectors interpreted inequality in a number of ways. Piketty is mainly concerned with the current dynamic that sees wealth in societies moving inexorably in one direction—upwards—and accumulating in the hands of fewer and fewer people at the top (such as those attending the Davos conference, for instance). Other kinds of inequality, however, were on the agenda, including the disparity between rich and poor nations, and among different groups, for example women and marginalized groups, within societies.
For impact and social investors, investments aimed at reducing inequality of all kinds are already part of the landscape and can take a number of forms. Affordable loans for college students, edutech that brings learning to those who need it, and provision of healthcare for girls and women, are all examples of investments that can help reduce inequality. Technology also has a role to play. Sheryl Sandberg, when asked by Arianna Huffington, opined that more technology, specifically access to the internet, and, less specifically, "more data" would bring more equality to the world. Social investments that extend tech to the tech-poor are already on the cards, but more work, targeted specifically on easing inequality, is needed from our sector.
Corruption and crime
In a recent blog, we showed why the impact and social investing sector should be putting its weight behind the growing global movement to fight corruption. At Davos, corruption and crime were prominent on the agenda, an indication that the movement is now hitting the mainstream thanks to the efforts of campaigners like Global Witness. The connection between corruption, poverty and the health of markets is becoming clearer, as is the role of the business community in tackling this scourge. These topics and others were addressed in number of sessions and an issue briefing at the WEF. Impact and social investors should keep abreast of how this discussion develops and, in keeping with their commitment to ethics, adopt anti-corruption strategies wherever possible.
Changes to the way the world invests
The delegates at Davos showed a new level of interest in the way capital markets are changing, and this has implications for the impact and social investing movements. This change-consciousness was evident in this year's sessions, many of which acknowledged, in different ways, a new mood and attitude toward investing in mainstream markets. Yet it can be seen most clearly in the future projects funded by the WEF for next year. Projects on accelerating capital markets in emerging economies and direct investment by institutional investors, for example, point to trends in the markets that could be important for impact investors. Meanwhile. Phase III of the Mainstreaming Impact project has been cleared to move forward, led by Abigail Noble. If the excellent work coming out of this project so far is any indication, this will give us even more data to work with and deepen our understanding of the developments in our own corner of the financial world.
An insight into the things to come?
The World Economic Forum provides a fascinating snapshot of the forces that shape our global economy and thus determine the fate of billions—billions of people, that is, not only dollars. It gives us a fleeting glimpse of the individuals making the decisions and the merest hint of how things will go in the year to come. For our emerging sector, it's vital to tune in to the lessons of Davos and learn what we can, especially if our aim is to one day become the mainstream that Davos represents.
And yet, in another sense, Davos may be less relevant to us than it first appears. As a guage of the status quo—what is now—nothing compares to it. But as a guage of what will be, it falls short. Piketty reminds us all that economics is, after all, not a hard science like mathematics, but a social science with historical underpinnings. Looking at the past is very helpful for understanding the present, as he ably proves. However it doesn't necessarily help us predict the future with perfect certainty. For many, Davos is already the past. The future, if committed impact and social investors have their way, could be very, very different.

iOS 4.3 brings a handful of new features and new headaches
Chris Rawson, @@rawsoncj
iOS 4.3 doesn't bring nearly as many changes to the table as iOS 4.2 did last November. The release of iOS 4.2 was a watershed moment for the iPad, bringing features like multitasking and folders that made it a far more useful device than before. The iPhone got fewer new features in iOS 4.2, some of which have proven more useful than others; I use AirPlay almost every day to stream from my iPhone to my home theater system, but I used AirPrint once (after some hacking), then forgot about it.
For the iPhone, iOS 4.3 brings even fewer marquee features to the device. Most of the big features you probably already know about, because Apple's described them. I'll walk you through those features now just to give you an idea of what you're in for when iOS 4.3 sees public release on March 11. Follow along onto the next page for a guided tour.
Note 1: This guide is mostly iPhone-focused, since that's the device I own. With few exceptions, all of these features will be standard across the entire line of iOS devices, except...
Note 2: If you have an iPhone older than the 3GS, or an iPod touch older than the third generation, read no farther, because the iOS 4.3 update won't be coming to your device. iOS 4.2 is apparently the end of the road for those older devices. Additionally, for some reason iOS 4.3 won't be immediately available for the Verizon iPhone, though some features like Personal Hotspot are already working on that model under iOS 4.2.6.
Note 3: For anyone worried that this information is breaking NDA, bear in mind that I'm not a developer and not bound by any non-disclosure agreement. I come by my iOS Gold Master builds the old-fashioned way: on the Hong Kong black market.
Despite the attention it's received, Personal Hotspot isn't really much different from the Internet Tethering option that preceded it. It's really more of an evolutionary expansion of that original data sharing scheme. Now, instead of being limited to Bluetooth or a direct USB connection, your iPhone can share its data connection over Wi-Fi with up to five clients (but only if you have an iPhone 4 -- earlier models are still limited to Bluetooth or USB connection to a single client). This will come in very handy if you're sharing a data connection to multiple devices at once; it was possible to do so before, but you had to do it through Internet Sharing on your Mac, a process nowhere near as user-friendly as the single-switch operation on the iPhone.
And yes, Personal Hotspot will share connections with other iOS devices -- something of potential great interest to Wi-Fi iPad owners. I tested this by setting up Personal Hotspot on my iPhone 4 and looking for it on my wife's iPhone 3G; her iPhone found mine in its Wi-Fi settings with no issues whatsoever, as if her iPhone was completely unaware of how completely awesome this was.
Setting up Personal Hotspot is far simpler than Internet Tethering was, mostly because the feature's no longer buried beneath three levels of menus like before. Personal Hotspot settings are available just one level below the main page of the Settings app, and there's only a single switch to throw in order to turn it on; in fact, mine was enabled by default. Once it's enabled, your iPhone will show up in the AirPort menubar item on your Mac or the Wi-Fi tab in your iOS device's Settings app just like any other Wi-Fi hotspot. Select your iPhone's wireless connection, input the WPA Wi-Fi password you chose in the iPhone's Settings app, and you're off and running on your iPhone 4's data connection. It really couldn't be simpler.
There's a couple caveats to Personal Hotspot. The first and most obvious is that your wireless provider can and probably will charge you to enable this functionality. I've lucked out -- my wireless provider doesn't care how I use data as long as I'm willing to sell one of my kidneys if I go over my limit -- but U.S. customers will have to pay extra for the privilege of this extremely useful functionality. At least now you're getting extra data too, but to me it still seems like a ripoff to have to pay extra just for tethering.
The other issue is more minor, but still kind of annoying. Under the old Internet Tethering scheme, I could share my iPhone's Wi-Fi connection with my Mac via Bluetooth or direct USB connection. This came in handy as a substitute for an AirPort Express to extend my Time Capsule's signal from my living room to my office (my iPhone 4 is better at picking up a Wi-Fi signal than my MacBook Pro). This is still possible via Personal Hotspot, but there's an extra step involved, at least on an iPhone 4. Once you activate Personal Hotspot, the iPhone 4 disables its incoming Wi-Fi signal. I initially thought this meant you couldn't share a Wi-Fi connection via Bluetooth or USB anymore, but it turns out that if you back out of Personal Hotspot and manually reconnect to a Wi-Fi base station, it's still possible. This convoluted scheme will affect maybe five or six of you, but it's something I noticed right away.
It bears repeating that as of now, the iPhone 4 is the only iOS device that gets the new Personal Hotspot feature. No previous iPhone will have it (though the old-school Internet Tethering should still work via Bluetooth or USB), nor will the 3G iPad.
iTunes Home Sharing
This is the feature I was most looking forward to using in iOS 4.3. iTunes Home Sharing will allow you to stream your entire iTunes library from your Mac to your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. It's not just audio streaming, either -- everything in your Mac's iTunes library will stream, video included. This partially mitigates the relatively limited storage space on iOS devices, and it made me slightly less annoyed that the iPad 2's capacity still tops out at 64 GB.
Unfortunately, the feature didn't really live up to my expectations. First of all, setting it up was a pain in the a way more difficult than it had to be. It took me about 20 minutes of scratching my head and muttering various profane catechisms before I finally figured out the following procedure:
On your Mac, open iTunes and go to iTunes > Preferences > Sharing.
Enable library sharing on your local network. Decide whether to share the whole library or just certain parts of it. If you want, set it up so Home Sharing clients will update your library's play counts.
This is the part where I got hung up, because enabling library sharing is only half the battle. You must also enable Home Sharing, via Advanced > Turn On Home Sharing. You then have to enter your Apple ID and password. When you click "Done" on the screen that follows, the Home Sharing icon in your sidebar will rather counterintuitively disappear, which confused the hell out of me. It turns out it is working and enabled at this point, it just doesn't show up in the sidebar unless a client is connected.
Now on your iOS device, go into Settings > iPod and input your Apple ID and password to enable Home Sharing on that device.
Launch the iPod app on your iOS device. Notice anything different? Yeah, I didn't either. That's because the shared library is buried within the "More" tab at the bottom, and it's jumbled in with whatever other options you've got secluded there.
I'm not exactly new at this kind of stuff, but it was still a struggle for me to figure all of this out on my own -- and since iOS 4.3 hasn't been officially released yet, scrounging for clues on the internet wasn't of much help, either. I'd like to know how Apple expects a "normal" user to be able to figure all of this out on his own, much less Grandma Ethel. The complexity and confusion of iTunes Home Sharing was a stark contrast to the "step one and done" simplicity of Personal Hotspot.
So once you've actually got it working, how does iTunes Home Sharing perform on the iPhone? Like a charm ... as long as you're not more than 15 feet away from your Mac. Let me give you an idea of how poorly iTunes Home Sharing streaming performs by describing my wireless setup. In my living room, I've got an original model Time Capsule running in 802.11n-only mode at 2.4 GHz (at 5 GHz, the signal barely reaches my office). Roughly 20 feet and two thin walls away from the Time Capsule, I have an AirPort Express in my office acting as a wireless extender for the Time Capsule, again in 802.11n-only mode. Finally, about three feet from the AirPort Express is my MacBook Pro.
So how far was I able to roam away from my MacBook Pro before iTunes Home Sharing fell off the map? About fifteen feet. I initially thought this was because I was streaming a rather demanding, high-bitrate film, so I switched to a different video with a much lower bitrate. Sadly, I got the same dismal result, and I'm not at all certain why. I've never had issues streaming music over AirPlay with this setup, so I don't know if it's just that there's too much data in a video to maintain a reliable connection or some other issue.
The bottom line: once you actually figure out how to get it running, iTunes Home Sharing could be a very useful feature if your household has a couple of iOS devices. I'm already picturing watching TV shows in bed on an iPad 2 without having to go through the bother of syncing them to the device first. But in order for everyday users to be able to use it, Apple needs to make activation a much simpler process. As for the wireless issues I experienced, your mileage may vary; for all I know, I may have heavy metals or something else in my walls bouncing my wireless signals all over the place.
AirPlay Improvements
I haven't been able to test this one myself since I don't own an Apple TV, but in addition to the wireless video streaming from iTunes offered in iOS 4.2, iOS devices will now stream video from the Photos app. This addresses one of the biggest complaints people had with video streaming over AirPlay before, the seemingly nonsensical inability to stream video shot on the iPhone's camera without converting it and syncing it to iTunes first. That's no longer an issue in iOS 4.3. You can also play photo slideshows wirelessly via AirPlay.
The real game-changer will be that any developer who decides to do so can enable video streaming over AirPlay in their apps. Don't expect this to mean wireless gameplay, though; due to the streaming protocols used in AirPlay, there's about a 2-3 second delay between touching your device's screen and video/sound output on your HDTV. But if any multi-format video player app should take up the reins of the now-defunct VLC app (hallowed be its memory), AirPlay plus an Apple TV would go a long way towards Apple's goal of taking over our living rooms.
Like iOS 4.2, iOS 4.3 has some more minor improvements. Mobile Safari now runs the same Nitro JavaScript engine as its bigger brother on OS X, leading to faster performance. In my own testing, Mobile Safari didn't seem dramatically faster than before, but page elements did render noticeably quicker. This obviously has no effect on how fast content actually downloads, but it does mean pages will render a bit faster than before.
The only other alteration of any significance I've seen on the iPhone under iOS 4.3 is in the settings for Messages. Back in my review of iOS 4.2, I noted that although Apple added 17 new text tones for the iPhone 4, saying, "...to be blunt, they're all terrible. Not only are the sounds themselves incredibly irritating for the most part, almost all of them are far too lengthy for a text tone. The length of some tones is even pushing the envelope for a ringtone."
In iOS 4.3, most of these tones have been dramatically shortened, though six of 17 tones still remain at a length more appropriate to a ringtone than a text tone. To my dismay, Noir, the one new text tone I actually liked, has been chopped in half -- which doesn't make a whole lot of sense, since it was initially only about two seconds long to begin with. Vibrations associated with texts have been changed up too, with two short and very strong vibratory pulses accompanying each text. The new text vibration is way more noticeable than before, which suits me fine.
That's it for new features on the iPhone as far as I can tell. Since I don't own an iPad (yet... March 11 seriously cannot arrive fast enough), other than the option to choose whether the side switch on the iPad functions as a mute switch or an orientation lock, I'm not aware of any tweaks to the iPad other than those listed above.
Overall, iOS 4.3 isn't an earth-shattering update, but it does bring a handful of cool new features. There's still more than enough room for improvement in iOS 5, which will probably be previewed within the next couple of months.

Several students who graduated yesterday from the Massachusetts International Academy said they plan to return to their native China eventually.
But Peng Hou isn't so sure.
Hou, who will study computer programming next year, is passionate about rock music, and he said that there is a much better music scene in the United States because of censorship in China.
Yesterday, the graduating class of the Massachusetts International Academy (MAIA) completed its first year of education in the United States. The 168 Chinese students in the school's third graduating class will pursue an undergraduate education at American universities.
In founding the first boarding school for Chinese students in the United States, nonprofit nationwide education and research computer network Cernet recognized a powerful demand in China for educational opportunities abroad.
The company's successful partnership with the University of Massachusetts for online courses led it to expand in Massachusetts and continue the partnership with UMass campuses. Jonathan Peyster, the academy's director of student programs, estimates that about 90 percent of graduates will attend a UMass campus this fall. The partnership exempts MAIA students from taking the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) to receive undergraduate admission. MAIA students who attend UMass pay full out-of-state tuition during their time at the university.
Lisa Johnson, associate vice chancellor of enrollment management at UMass-Boston, explained that the university was eager to partner with MAIA to increase the number of international students there.
"They are part of a bigger picture at UMass-Boston," Johnson said. "In our strategic plan we want to be at 15 percent international students." The student body at that campus currently consists of 9 percent international students.
Student Zilong Wu will attend the graduate program at UMass-Lowell in the fall, where he will study business administration. About 15 percent of the academy's students enter as pre-graduate students, and Wu said he plans to finish his master's degree and gain work experience in his field before returning to China, where his American education will give him an advantage.
The academy, on Locke Drive, acclimates its students to US education and culture with a staff of 16 teachers and 10 student advisors who work in conjunction with UMass-Boston. The academy plays a nurturing role in easing the drastic adjustment for students coming from China, said Kate McCook, academic coordinator and teacher.
In addition, students come as passive learners used to receiving knowledge authoritatively, and throughout the year, students work to become active learners who participate in discussion.

One of the most common mythical creatures in Chinese lore is the Qilin. Qilin looks like a cross-breed of a dragon and a giraffe although historically, Qilin was said to have originated from the giraffe. According to Chinese beliefs, Qilin is a divine creature that protects against evil and therefore, usually appears as sculptures or paintings in temples as well as in ancient Chinese architecture.

Q: does long if else if else blocks fall under any design pattern for example if have a if else like below , i want to know if this falls under any design patern ,in daily life i come across something like this so many times and don't think its good
to write so many if else blocks
any guidence is really appreciated
sample///
 if(dotcom){
  else if (frenc){}
  else if (german){}
  else if (brazil){}
  else if (someothercountry){}
 // and the else if block goes on
  else {}
  }

A: I'd lean towards the Strategy pattern, here's an example
http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/gilf/archive/2009/11/22/applying-strategy-pattern-instead-of-using-switch-statements.aspx

A: You're definitely on to something. If it feels wrong or repetitive, there's probably a better way.
Your example seems like a localization problem. Since you're on .NET, you could take a look at the System.Globalization namespace for some hints at how things like UI localization are handled in an object-oriented way.
The exact pattern to follow instead of if/else for any given situation will depend on what's inside your curly braces -- do different countries have different values of properties like "Population" or "Url Suffix" or "Do I need to apply for a visa before I go There"? Let's assume the latter, which will probably be the case 99% of the time. Basically, if you have something like this:
public class Country
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string DefaultLanguage { get; set; }
    public bool NeedToApplyForAVisaFirst { get; set; }
    public string DefaultWordForClickHere { get; set; }
}

Code can go from:
if ("france")
{
    button.Text = "French(Fr) for 'Click Here'";
}
else if ("brazil")
{
    button.Text = "Portuguese(Br) for 'Click Here'";
}
.....

to:
button.Text = User.Country.DefaultWordForClickHere;

A: In general, it's a code smell to have too many switch statements and if-else if like that. There are two possible solutions:

*

*You should generally piggyback on virtual method dispatch mechanism offered by your object-oriented language to figure out the code snippet that's going to be executed. You'll need to have a class for each condition, with an abstract base class. In each class you'll override a method that customizes the behavior.

*Use lookup tables (in your specific question, I speculate this to be probably more relevant; this is more useful if you have similar code in all paths but they are going to depend on different values for some variables).
I believe there are legitimate use cases for such kind of blocks and a large object hierarchy is not always worth it.  It's a code smell, not a hard rule.

You can't really get through Grand New Party without feeling that anyone who lacks an American passport is an enemy to this vision. We know that it's possible to dredge up a few votes by blaming entrenched native-born poverty on Mexican laborers. Nor is it hard to convince (otherwise) educated Americans that the rise of a Chinese and Indian middle class is a catastrophe rather than an unprecedented increase in human welfare. This is a politics of exclusion, and we are tribal beings.
Reihan tries to parry the attack. Wilkinson and Larison are having a debate on similar grounds.

Q: handlebars show html tags instead of treat it as html tags i've got handlebars template which i fill by some complex message (with html stuff like images, bold texts etc...). I don't know how to force this library to treat my message text as valid html-nodes with some text stuff.
I'm doing something like this:

        {{this.MESSAGE_TITLE}}

where {{this.MESSAGE_TITLE}} can be correct html content.

A: Try with & after the {{ or {{{
{{&this.MESSAGE_TITLE}}

or
{{{this.MESSAGE_TITLE}}}

From the mustache website where handlebars is derived from...

All variables are HTML escaped by default. If you want to return unescaped HTML, use the triple mustache: {{{name}}}.
You can also use & to unescape a variable: {{& name}}. This may be useful when changing delimiters

Barry Cuddihy (born 19 December 1996) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Clyde. Cuddihy has previously played for St Mirren and Annan Athletic.

Career
Born in Glasgow, Cuddihy began his career at St Mirren. He was an unused substitute in three of their 2013–14 Scottish Premiership matches, starting with a 1–1 home draw with Heart of Midlothian on 29 December 2013. He made his debut on 25 April 2015, playing three minutes as a substitute for Thomas Reilly at the end of a 4–1 win over Kilmarnock, and made two more substitute appearances as the season ended with relegation.

On 12 March 2016, Cuddihy moved to Annan Athletic of Scottish League Two on an emergency loan. He made his debut later that day, playing the entirety of a 4–2 loss at East Fife.  He was released by St Mirren at the end of the 2015–16 season.

After leaving St Mirren, Cuddihy returned to Annan Athletic on a one-year deal. He was subsequently signed for Clyde in July 2017 by former Annan manager Jim Chapman.

Gazprom drafting proposals on gas supplies to U.S.
By the end of this year Gazprom, the Russian natural gas monopoly, will form a package of proposals on the implementation of a project to supply liquefied natural gas to the United States.
In an address to a Russian-American seminar on liquefied natural gas, Alexander Ryazanov, the deputy chairman of Gazprom, said, "before the end of the year, we intend to form a package of proposals on the development of deposits within the framework of a project to sell liquefied natural gas in the United States and organize its transportation and delivery there."
According to Mr. Ryazanov, Gazprom is interested in continuing its constructive dialogue with the U.S. on liquefied natural gas sales. He stressed that the development of this dialogue was impossible without "our government making constructive decisions on this issue."
"It is generally believed that the U.S. gas market is very promising not only for Russian gas supplies, but for other countries' supplies as well," he noted. "The American market will not wait for Russian gas if we do not make prompt decisions."
Ivan Matyorov, the deputy industry and energy minister, also addressed the seminar and noted that investments in projects connected with liquefied natural gas supplies and the elaboration of a plan for transporting liquid natural gas are priorities for Russia in the gas sphere.
"We hope that during today's meeting," he continued, "we will achieve some concrete results and probably, the sides will submit some proposals on concrete projects and deposits."
Currently, the sides are examining two projects to build plants in Russia (in Murmansk, a port on the Barents Sea in northwestern Russia, and in Sakhalin, a Russian island in the Pacific Ocean) to produce natural gas and supply it to the United States.

Q: why do network socket connect and send/recieve data takes long in wireless? I made an app client in android device (with ethernet and wireless port) and server application in windows.
Data transfers via Socket programming between devices and when i test it in emulator in PC or run in Ethernet via cable it works correctly, but when i connect server and client with wireless connectivity (via an access point) data sent or received with a delay . this delay may be take over 60 seconds !

Q: How do I parse ms outlook 2003 email body for a string i.e. keyword 'error' I am trying to figure out how to parse ms outlook 2003 email body for a string using C# eg: read all the email in certain folder and search the email body for the word "error" in these emails.
Once this string error is found in the email body I would like to display the email and the error message.
I have the following code so far which basically just reads all the emails in the folder  and displays all the information about the emails.
The issue I am having is actually trying to read into the mail item body in each individual email so I can search for the string.
I have been searching quite a while for this on web and have found code very similar to what I have below but none which shows you or if it is possible to read a folder containing emails, read through individual each email and search for the string 'errors', if this keyword is found in the email display the details from email i.e email subject, error message etc.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks a million.
John.

Two patrons of the Yum Yum Bus at the Hants County Exhibition in Windsor, Nova Scotia, in 1993. Begun in 1765, it is North America's oldest agricultural fair.
It turns out that Prince Edward Island is a pretty good place from which to explore the region. For almost four decades my journey has taken me from the Torngat Mountains of northern Labrador to New Brunswick's Fundy Isles and countless places in between. Initially, it was the spectacular scenery of land and sea that attracted me, but you can't live here long without realizing that the land, the sea and human history are inextricably entwined. I've always been intrigued by rural culture, where knowledge and skills are not so much passed down, as absorbed, from generation to generation. Much of my focus over the years has been documenting the lives of those who make their living from land and sea. This authenticity finds expression in the region's art, stories and music.
Inevitably, I've witnessed a great deal of change. In 1983, I arrived in Bay de Verde, a tiny village on Newfoundland's east coast, to observe the spectacle of an entire community, from young children to the oldest seniors, pitching in to unload cod from small open boats and splitting and cleaning the day's catch on the wharf. It was a way of life that had survived for almost 500 years, but in 1992 it came to an abrupt end with the collapse of the cod stocks. Outports now struggle to survive, with some abandoned completely, as residents have drifted away seeking opportunity
elsewhere.
There are good news stories too. I've watched the thriving musical culture of the region grow and flourish. The Chaisson family of Rollo Bay, Prince Edward Island, started a fiddle festival on the back of a hay wagon 43 years ago. The festival has fostered some
of the region's greatest talents. I recall a teenaged fiddling sensation, Ashley MacIsaac, wowing the crowds. The Chaissons welcomed all musicians to their stage, however, no matter their age or talent, thus nurturing a passion
for traditional music and leaving a lasting legacy.
Photography has provided me with a passport and the privilege to enter other people's lives, if only for a brief few moments. Almost without exception I've been generously welcomed into homes, places of work and celebration. The handful of images on these pages are just a few from a journey accepting this generosity and doing my best to faithfully witness the remarkable culture of Atlantic Canada.
Editor's note: Because of the consistently high quality, PEI-based
photographer John Sylvester's images have been featured
frequently, over many years, in Saltscapes. He is celebrating
almost 40 years in the business. We thought you might enjoy a
selection of his work.

Your grades after college acceptances matter. Don't slack off or your offer of admission can indeed be rescinded. But, yes, a 'B+' is ok.
Grades after college acceptances matter. What your grades are like before you're admitted to the college you'll be matriculating to should be what your grades are like after you're admitted. If you're an 'A' student before, you should be an 'A' student after, too. But we do recognize that you're not a robot. You've spent years working so hard to get into the college of your dreams. You've aced exam after exam, completed paper after paper. It's ok for you to relax a little bit and enjoy the rest of high school. Seriously — you should. Does that mean your grades should drop significantly? Absolutely not. Your letter of admission can certainly be rescinded. It happens all of the time.
But what happens if you slack off a little and get a 'B+' instead of your usual 'A' in a class? Nothing will happen. It'll be ok. Your offer of admission likely isn't going to be rescinded over a 'B+'. If you start getting straight 'D's,' then, yes, there is an excellent shot that your offer of admission will be rescinded. But most people fall into the first category of students, not the second. If you're super worried that your 'B+' will jeopardize your offer of admission, stop worrying. Seriously. That's silly. Relax.
But while getting a 'B+' is ok, a change in behavior isn't. If you start getting into trouble at school or with the law, there is an excellent chance that your offer of admission will be rescinded. So if you feel that your relaxing and taking it a little bit easier than you did prior to your offer of admission is in your future, know that changing your behavior is a really bad idea that can jeopardize everything you've worked so hard to achieve. Be the same person you were before your offer of admission and be the same student you were before this offer, too. But, yes, a 'B+' is totally ok.
