I needed to wear something a bit more 'blendy in' on Sunday as I knew I would be working backstage with Benefit later in the day so I opted for my new pleather skort from Zara accompanied by a cute checked crop sweater. You can't go wrong with the traditional black & black combo right? The skort was actually a recent present from marvelous Mother Gunn and I'm soooo in love with it! I've wanted the original Zara skort since it sold out last year but I actually prefer this one as the pleather gives it a bit of an edge, whilst the classy length and fit makes it decent enough for work. The jumper was a last minute panic outfit addition courtesy of the lovely Rosie who had bought it the day before- it's hard doing Fashion Week from a small suitcase- and I'm going to struggle to return it to her now as it's super classic and cosy. I then thought I'd enhance it's monochrome element with an adorable white satchel and add a pop of colour with my go to red lip in the form of No.7 'Gay Geranium', which paired with some heeled cut out boots made me feel rather chic, even amoungst all the fashionistas backstage.
Actually going backstage was such an incredible experience- I spent my time covering social media for Benefit as they were doing the make up look, whilst just trying to take in the general craziness of getting an insane amount of models ready for the catwalk. And not only did I meet all the gorgeous models, but also Matthew Williamson himself alongside three of my all time favourite bloggers/vloggers Lily Melrose, Ruth Crilly and Lisa Eldridge! It took all of my will power to remain at least semi professional...well until the VIP afterparty that is when I let my hair down to the max with free cocktails a plenty (Something I did somewhat regret when starting work at 9am the next day). The make up, hair and clothing for the show was absolutely stunning too with glossy chocolate lips, low pony tails and vibrant patterned dresses and jumpsuits- make sure to pour over all the beautiful photos from the show here.
Did you enjoy my LFW14 diary?
My love for your outfit is unreal!
Love this outfit! I really want a skort!
You look amazing! So jealous you got to go backstage!

"James is really excited about it, which really says something to me because he is such a perfectionist and he is so creative and he has such a dark, twisted sense of humour. And I can tell you that he loves writing for Drax. The best thing about that is that James gave everybody a Drax they weren't expecting. He was just a killer, a barbarian, in the comics. Yet he was funny in the film. It was just a different side to him and it was just more interesting."
"When I asked him what he was going to do to make it better, he said: 'I'm not going to try to make it better, I'm going to make it different!' So I really don't know (what Vol. 2 will offer). I couldn't give an honest answer to that question. But knowing James and knowing Kevin Feige (producer in charge of the Marvel Universe), I'm sure that it's going to be brilliant. I do know that he was going to try to tell more of the story of the characters. But we also need to move forward because — as you know from Marvel history — a lot of things tend to tie in together. So, hopefully, that's where we're headed — to tie in somewhere down the road with The Avengers. It all remains to be seen, but it will be a lot of good storytelling, a lot of laughs, a lot of good music and a lot of dramatic beats to give you an emotional connection. And I think they're going to introduce some new characters in this Guardians, as well, which is going to be pretty cool because, throughout the comics, a lot of members came in and out of the Guardians."
- As noted, Corey Graves will be hosting the The Concussion Legacy Foundation's 8th annual Impact Awards tonight in Boston and Triple H will be joining him. The CLF is owned by former WWE star Chris Nowinski. Triple H posted this photo after landing in Boston and noted that there is also a CLF Board meeting today.

Gay porn art and nude gay art are terms used to describe works of erotic artwork from homosexual men and women that explore the erotic potential of nudity in sexuality. Some examples of erotic gay art include work by David Deangelo's" circumcised men," which shows men with no pubic hair except for the head, or photographs of naked gay men taken from behind. Nudity has long been considered a form of gay liberation, and the visual appeal of erotic art can be traced right back to the earliest days of gay liberation. In particular, the work of artist Banksy is well known for erotic uses of color and repetition in his work. Some of Banksy's works are on view at the Saachi gallery in Tokyo, Japan. There are also some various artists that express themselves through gay tattoo and general ink work.
Gay bareback & other forms of gay porn art
Gay bareback art is an offshoot of the original LGBT porn art movement and is similar to nudes paintings and drawings that have been seen as public art. Bareback gay porn art is a brand new genre of pornography that centers on extremely close up shots of nude men and non-nude men. Though not intended to be for adults, this art style was created as an expression of sexual desire between gay men. This sub-genre of porn art has grown in popularity since many of the websites devoted to it were established online.
Some artists who dabble in gay porn art are Frank Capra, whom Capra painted while in Hollywood; Bill Sissi; and graphic designer Mark Langan. Others whose names are known to fans of the art are Curt Decker, Dennis Coyne, and Aaron Ginsberg. Propagandas, as gay porn is also called, gained popularity in the 1990s when gay and lesbian groups made literature and artwork that promoted the theme.
Erotic LGBT art
The erotic images created in this new style of pornography is said to have increased sexual desire between gay men and women. Some say it causes erection and excitement in people of both sexes. Whatever the case, gay porn art works as a means of self expression for many individuals. Many who enjoy the erotic images found in this type of art find it relieves stress.
Many websites are dedicated to gay porn art
Most of these sites offer free pictures and artwork for members to use. The images may be reproduced in a format that is unique to the site. Some sites offer the art for download and others charge a fee for downloading. Users can choose the sites they wish to visit based on how much they want to pay.
Gay porn art exists in several forms
It has become a popular art form among individuals, couples, and websites devoted to the theme. Some of the artists who have created that is LGBT porn art include Curt Decker, and Mark Langan. Other well-known names in the world of LGBT porn art include Aaron Ginsberg, Clay Drayton, and Anthony Soto. All of these artists bring new ideas and styles to the table that previous art forms have not presented.
Gay Art has evolved into an incredibly popular form of expression in modern society. As more states continue to enact legislation that legally bans gay marriage, gay art is growing increasingly popular as a way for gay Americans to protest the discrimination they face everyday. While some gay fan art focuses on specific issues related to gay pride or sexual identity, there has been a tremendous growth in more general artistic expressions of gayness. This is especially true in the visual arts, but also in music, literature, and other creative fields.
Gay Art is also referred to as gay sensibilities, gay lifestyle, or just simply gay art. Gay art, which can be loosely defined as any art created by gay people, draws on issues related to gay culture and sexuality. Many artists use sexual themes or images to discuss issues of gay love or sex. LGBT fan art has even reached a level of popularity where some of these artists receive thousands of dollars in grants and donations from various groups and foundations in order to pursue their artistic pursuits. Gay art is very diverse and can include any variety of media and topics. Some artists may focus on gay themes related to love, while others may focus on gay topics such as politics, gay clubs, gay bars, gay neighborhoods, gay travel, or gay activism.
One of the largest areas of LGBT art is the creation of LGBT newspapers, magazines, and periodicals
Gay magazines like "Gay Parent" and "Gay Style" have used cartoon drawings and written content to provide an underground means of communication for gay people while promoting awareness of sexual identity. These publications have also provided a means of promotion for well-known gay artists. One of the first gay artists to gain attention and publicity through these publications was Harvey Milk, who was famous for his performances at gay nightclubs.
A number of famous gay men have become icons, whose names are remembered around the world. The most notable of these celebrities are Canadian rock band Wire, German singer Gaucho, and actor Matt Damon. HIV/AIDS activist George Clooney and his partner, Brad Pitt were married in 2021, making Clooney the first gay man to be married in the United States. There are many more celebrities who have become icons through their own gay art and gay contributions to culture.
LGBT art enthusiasts have turned to a new medium in order to promote gay artistry
Gay artists have taken to digital photography in order to create personalized pictures and images for fans to purchase and print. Many digital gay artists have turned to photography as a way to promote gay art. Images of gay lovers and gay life can be printed on custom greeting cards, t-shirts, posters, and other items that can be given to others as gifts. Digital photographs of gay icons and other public figures can also be found online.
AIDS is an issue that has touched the lives of gay people worldwide, yet there are people who are doing everything they can to find a cure for AIDS. HIV/AIDS is incurable, yet gay and bisexual men continue to fight for their right to live. They need all the help they can get, including LGBT art. Prints of HIV/AIDS art featuring gay men in love with one another can be ordered online by those who support AIDS sufferers. The HIV/AIDS community needs visibility, and gay artists are giving it to them.

Referring Syria to the international criminal court is a justified gamble | Philippe Sands
Posted byRussian_Village January 16, 2013 Leave a comment on Referring Syria to the international criminal court is a justified gamble | Philippe Sands
Against the background of mounting bloodshed and terror, Switzerland has asked the UN security council to refer the situation in Syria to the International criminal court. The aim is to send out an unequivocal message to all parties "to fully respect international human rights and humanitarian law", a warning that would have "an important dissuasive effect".
The request is supported by more than 50 countries from every part of the world, including several countries with firsthand experience of systematic human rights abuses and impunity, like Chile and Libya. Britain and France support the initiative, but have not so far been joined by the three other permanent members of the security council. The Russian foreign ministry objects on the grounds that the initiative is "untimely", and will be "counterproductive" in achieving the immediate goal of ending the bloodshed. China and the United States remain silent.
What factors should come into play in deciding whether to invoke the ICC? Experience is limited but instructive: since the ICC began to operate a decade ago, the security council has referred two "situations" to the ICC, with mixed results. In 2005 Sudan was referred in respect of Darfur; five prosecutions are now pending, including against President Omar al-Bashir for genocide. It is not immediately apparent that the referral has had a significant (or any) dissuasive impact on the ground, or transformed the political situation in Sudan. Bashir remains in office, even if his international travel schedule is somewhat constrained by the fear of arrest.
Six years later the security council referred the situation in Libya, and two prosecutions are pending. Arguably, the effect has been more significant, in delegitimising the Gaddafi regime and paving the way to UN resolution 1973, that authorised "all necessary measures" to protect Libyan civilians. Once subject to an arrest warrant it was likely that Gaddafi would dig in his heels, which he duly did. Whether this was due to the ICC referral cannot be established. While the referral didn't catalyse a quick voluntary departure, Gaddafi was gone within a year.
There is no reason to imagine that an ICC referral of Syria would immediately cause Bashar al-Assad to stand down. While there is some anecdotal evidence to suggest that some on the frontline may think twice before targeting civilians or engaging in other international crimes, those at the top seem less inclined to turn down the heat in the face of a threat of criminal prosecution. The real significance of a security council referral would be on the legitimacy of President Assad and his regime, and on those who might seek to support it. If Assad was to be indicted, it would be more difficult for Russia to maintain a supportive stance in the face of hardening international public opinion that an arrest warrant would generate.
Russia and China, and possibly also the US, will have another concern. A referral of the Syrian situation followed by an arrest warrant would add to pressure for action, including military action. The pressure on Russia and China would increase, and at some point it might even become intolerable. Russia's real concern is not an ICC referral as such, but the slippery slope towards a council resolution authorising some degree of military action to which it might lead.
Moreover, a referral to the ICC makes that body a player in the conflict, and that can change the political dynamic, as happened in the 1990s when the security council created international criminal tribunals in the face of inaction in Yugoslavia and Rwanda.
Then, as with Sudan and Libya, international criminal justice became a convenient default option where states were divided. This brings its own problems, as there has been a tendency for governments to take a short-term view on the ICC and other international criminal tribunals.
A moment arrives where action is needed, and in the absence of other possibilities the criminalisation route looks attractive. Once a process is initiated, however, it takes on a life of its own: the security council initiates criminal processes but seems not to be able to end them. Other issues then arise which need to be considered: where might Assad eventually be tried – at the ICC or in Syria? Will countries supporting a referral continue to assist the ICC in investigating and prosecuting? Will all sides of the conflict be investigated and prosecuted, or will the referral lead only to some form of victors' justice?
Bloodshed will not end the day after an ICC referral, and it might cause the Assad regime to dig in its heels. But it might also change the balance of factors that come into play in defining the nature and direction of the conflict. In the case of Syria, the ICC will not offer a short-term magic bullet or a panacea, but it's the longer term that matters. It's a gamble of sorts, but Switzerland and its supporters are betting that Syria is more akin to Libya than Sudan.

A solid and consistent longer-term performance saw this fund clinch highly commended status in the Best Asia Pacific Fund category of the Money Observer 2018 awards.
The fund benefits from the stewardship of Joanna Kwok and Mark Davids, both of whom have more than 20 years of investment experience. They are able to draw on a well-resourced emerging markets and Asia Pacific team at JPMorgan.
The process follows the same quality/ growth bias investors have come to expect from JPMorgan's equity-based strategies managed across the region. The portfolio contains up to 60 names, typically structural growth ideas – companies that boast quality franchises and consistent earnings streams.
The managers build the portfolio based on the convictions of country specialists, who are responsible for single-country strategies across the region, and also those of sector analysts. The conviction based nature of the fund is evident in its significant deviation from its benchmark and ability to have some latitude at country and sector level.
At the end of 2018 its largest regional weighting was to China, which accounted for 36% of the fund's £257 million of assets, much in line with the MSCI Asia ex Japan index. Its most significant country overweights are to Indonesia and India.
On a sector basis, the managers favour financials, technology and consumer discretionary stocks, which collectively account for almost 80% of the portfolio. Financials is its largest sector overweight with insurance also being favoured.
Ongoing charges are attractive, at 0.9%, providing a head start for investors compared with more expensive peers.
Joanna Kwok, executive director, is a regional specialist for Asia Pacific ex-Japan equities with the Emerging Markets and Asia Pacific (EMAP) Equities Team based in Hong Kong. She joined the Firm in 2002 as an analyst with the Hong Kong bond team and took up her current role in 2005. Prior to joining the Firm, Joanna spent three years with PricewaterhouseCoopers in London where she qualified as a chartered accountant and one year in Hong Kong as a senior associate in their banking & capital markets division. Joanna obtained a B.A. (Hons) in Natural Sciences from Downing College, Cambridge University.


The green glows like electricity. It's everywhere in the forest. It's on the ground, stuck on twigs like christmas decoration. I get lost by moving it. The electriciy goes dim, the sky turns blue, my wrist begins to throb.
A beast lives deep in the valley, out of sight, lonely, blue, true to its nature. Heaven and earth cannot move it into the light until it decides for itself. Footsteps crunch bark, boasting its strength as the day heat dims. While the town goes to close, the beast's wide eyes glow bright red, so fierce they could start a fire.
The wind pulls tufts of moss from the tall pine, with the broken branch that healed itself, then started growing down until it fused with a granite slab and made a seat large enogh for a family of four.
Over the mountains the clouds drift east until I stop to ponder their movement. Then they stand still, quiet like fog.
uphold the truths that are not yet self evident.

Sumie Nagano's new album, Lost in Light, is the first to be released since her self-titled debut back in 2013, and is something of much anticipation. Produced by Filip Leyman and released via Bella Union it will undoubtedly be an exceptional record.
Sumie spoke with The Fountain about her cultural influences, her tips for fellow musicians as well as her working process.
TF: So, you're first release since your debut four years ago, you must be excited?
Yes, to let something go that only a few people have heard is for sure something truly special.
TF: The last album you worked with pianist Nils Frahm and recorded a hauntingly reflective one – what are we to expect from your new work?
I believe my expression is the same as the debut album but I wanted to find a sound that included more musicians and with Filip Leyman as my producer this time around it definitely has a more dramatic feel and soundscape to it. Also time plays a part on your way of writing or delivering a song, I am sure you can hear that as well even if I have not reflected over that much yet, but I am sure I will in the future.
TF: Lost In Light comes out on 10th November – where did your influences stem from in the culmination and writing of this new beauty? With both Japanese and Swedish family history there must be quite a fusion of influences?
It's quite difficult for me to pinpoint where it actually started, melodies and lyrics do come fairly often but after writing them down perhaps one out of very many is something I might save by recording them in my apartment.
Working with different musical projects did also make me see how I could write and sing from a different angle.
Being part Japanese and Swedish is not something I think about while being creative even though I am sure the set of both cultures does surely have a print of some kind that has more depth than the way I look. I grew up with parents listening to Bob Dylan, The Band, Leonard Cohen and Bob Marley to name a few that I can remember now. I pretty recently have found a singer/songwriter treasure from the late sixties in Japan and Sweden and the song Divine Wind from the new album, for example, is a Swedish poem about Japan by Daniel Klevheden that I translated to English so I guess I take that back, it does have an impact on me but it's still not something I think about.
TF: Out on Bella Union again, there must be a promo tour and all else to plug this new album. Can we expect to see you in the UK?
Yes, it looks like I will be touring this winter and UK will be one of the stops on the way and hopefully Glasgow.
TF: For wannabe and, up and coming musicians out there, what tips and advice would you give?
Sounding like a cliché but it's a true fact and that is to hold on to your true self meaning your own expression, we are all influenced by other artists but it is what you make out of it. And, yes, practice that talent and I'm sure you will find love by doing just that.
TF: And what is a day in the life of Sumie? How do you begin and develop a track never mind an entire album?
A day in my life comes along with me being a mother of two wonderful kids and having a 9-5 job so I think I am lucky to have the support that I have from foremost Bella Union and all the great musicians who I've met along my way here. They have all inspired me to continue and with that said I've found time that some people say they wouldn't have but you always have time for something that you can't help doing and for me it's writing songs.
Sumie's Lost in Light is out on 10th November via Bella Union.

Breaking Free from Negative Thought Cycles
The Straits Times recently reported a new study, which shows that if you feel bad about your negative emotions, you can actually make your emotions worse and heap more stress on yourself. The study explores how negativity can lead people into an emotional cycle that drives them deeper into sadness or even depression. Explore the effect of negative thought cycles on mental health in Singapore.
The study referenced by the Straits Times was conducted in the United States. Funded by the National Institute of Ageing, the study took place at the University of California at Berkeley. The team consisted of assistant professor Brett Ford (University of Toronto), graduate assistant Phoebe Lam (Northwestern University), associate psychology professor Iris Mauss (UC Berkeley), and psychology professor Oliver John(UC Berkeley).
Surveys and Speeches
The study spanned over 1,300 people. The research team had participants complete questionnaires that explored their perspectives on their own emotions. They were asked to respond with their reactions to statements like, "I tell myself I shouldn't be feeling the way that I'm feeling."
A select group of 150 people had two minutes to write a three-minute speech. They were told to give the speech on video tape as part of a fake job application. Afterward, each person had to rate their own performance of the speech. Researchers found that people who gave themselves low ratings exhibited signs of greater stress.
The Long-Term Effects of Emotional Self-Judgment
The team discovered that when people judge themselves harshly for feeling a certain way, they are just perpetuating a negative chain of emotions. These people experience sadness, anxiety, or other bad feelings; and then they judge themselves and criticise themselves for feeling that way. The judgment opens the door for guilt and more sadness and negative feelings, which in turn are judged and compound the guilt. It's a never-ending cycle that can damage a person's mental health in Singapore or wherever they live.
A Possible Solution
Associate Psychology Professor Iris Mauss delivered some words of wisdom along with the release of the study. She said, "Maybe if you have an accepting attitude towards negative emotions, you're not giving them as much attention. And perhaps, if you are constantly judging your emotions, the negativity can pile up." Deciding not to impose guilt on yourself or judge your emotions can free you to experience more positive emotions, like confidence, happiness, and peace.
Finding a Psychologist in Singapore
Do you find yourself feeling guilty or judging yourself for your negative thoughts or dark emotions? You may be developing a harmful pattern that will be tough to break. But don't lose hope!
At Adelphi Psych Medicine Clinic, you can get help from a qualified psychologist in Singapore who will evaluate your mental health and assist you with breaking free of negative thought chains.

April's Little Family: How to Get Rich Blogging? Ask Miley Cyrus!
How to Get Rich Blogging? Ask Miley Cyrus!
After a slow start, I took the boys to Burger King for lunch, compliments of The Parent Bloggers Network (thank you!). Afterward, we headed to our usually park haunt - but in transit I decided I just couldn't spend another afternoon in the same place doing the same thing at the same time and seeing the same people... so, we went off the beaten path (ok, it was paved, I'm not being literal) and found ourselves at a new park! And, even better, it was an EMPTY park! We played for about an hour and then I called a friend who lives near the park and we stopped in for a quick hello.
After hanging with Tom & Ms. Maribeth for a while, I swung by the house to get Hubs and we all met up with the DiCarolis clan at Flats for an enjoyable outdoor dinner in the mild fall weather that makes Florida summers worthwhile.
No problem on the follow! :) Your kids are soooo cute :) Looks like you had a fun day at the park.
(I'm kind, I promise) I would have emailed you directly, but I couldn't find your address.:)Thanks!
You are totally getting me with your blog titles!

Q: Fn Key Quandary I have an old Averatec PC that runs XP.  It hasn't been used for ages, but we just dug it out, and I figured I'd get it running for my granddaughter.
The keyboard no longer works, but I did hook it up to a USB keyboard.  My problem is that the laptop screen is way too dark.  But the non-functioning keyboard has a blue labeled Fn key in the lower left hand corner, which should tie to the brightness, volume and screen position mapped in blue to the F3 thru F10 keys.
Of course, there is no Fn key on the USB keyboard I'm using.  I'd like to be able to determine if it's a setting problem, or the backlight before I go to the trouble of ordering, and installing a new keyboard.
Is there any way to duplicate the Fn and brightness keys with a non-laptop keyboard?

A: For brightening the screen you can try "Miniature screen-brightness controller" which is a little freeware that adds a brightness controller to the system-tray.
Supposed to work on Windows XP (with at least SP1), though I can only confirm it works for Windows 7.

James M. Bobbitt (* 18. Januar 1930 in Charleston, West Virginia; † 22. November 2021) war ein US-amerikanischer Chemiker und Professor.

Leben
James M. Bobbitt ist im Jahre 1930 in Charleston in West Virginia geboren, wo er 1951 an der West Virginia University seinen Bachelor of Science abschloss. Er wechselte an die Ohio State University, und wurde 1955 – betreut von M. L. Wolfrom – zum Ph.D. promoviert. Während seiner Zeit an der Ohio State University arbeitete er von 1952 bis 1955 zusätzlich als Lehrassistent. Als Postdoc wechselte er anschließend an die Wayne State University, um ein Jahr lang im Arbeitskreis von Carl Djerassi zu forschen. Ab 1956 arbeitete er als Dozent an der University of Connecticut, wo er schließlich von 1969 bis 1991 als Professor tätig war. Im Jahre 1992 wurde er – ebenfalls an der University of Connecticut – emeritierter Professor. Zusätzlich war er von 1976 bis 1977 amtierender Abteilungsleiter und von 1977 bis 1982 Abteilungsleiter an der University of Connecticut und konnte als promovierter Mitarbeiter ein Jahr lang von 1959 bis 1960 an der Universität Zürich bei Hans Schmid arbeiten. Auch als Gastdozent arbeitete Bobbitt an mehreren Universitäten: von 1964 bis 1965 an der University of East Anglia unter der Leitung von Alan R. Katritzky, im Juni 1968 an der Universität Kiel, im Juni 1971 an der Tohoku University in Japan, von 1971 bis 1972 an der La Trobe University in Australien und von 1980 bis 1981 an der University of Adelaide – ebenfalls in Australien. Außerdem gehört Bobbitt der American Chemical Society, der Sigma Xi, der Phi Beta Kappa, der Phi Lambda Upsilon, der Chemical Society (London) und der Electrochemical Society an. Auch einigen Gremien und Ausschüssen gehörte Bobbitt an. Dazu zählen im Jahre 1962 das Auswahlgremium des NSF Cooperative Predoctoral Program der National Academy of Sciences in Washington, D.C., von 1965 bis 1968 das Carbohydrates Subcommittee (Committee on Biological Chemistry) der National Academy of Sciences und im Jahre 1968 der Professor-in-Charge, ein Kurs namens "Thin-Layer Chromatography" der American Chemical Society. Im Jahre 1970 wurde er Präsident des UCONN Chapter bei Sigma Xi und 1974 bis 1975 folgte die Vizepräsidentschaft so wie Präsidentschaft UCONN Chapter bei Phi Beta Kappa.

Forschung

James M. Bobbitt ist Autor von elf Büchern und 120 Forschungsartikeln. Bei seiner Forschung spezialisierte er sich auf Alkaloide, die präparative Elektrochemie und die Oxidationschemie. Zusätzliches Forschungsinteresse zeigte er bei der Synthese von Stickstoffheterocyclen, der Dünnschichtchromatographie, der elektrolytischen Oxidation und der Oxoammoniumsalzoxidation von Alkoholen mit stöchiometrischen Mengen des recyclierbaren Bobbitt-Salzes.

Besondere Beachtung fand auch die 1965 von ihm entdeckte Bobbitt-Reaktion zur Synthese von Tetrahydroisochinolin und dessen Derivaten.

Ammo and Gun Collector: What is this gun?
It's a fantasy weapon! It used in the japanese movie Zeiram (1991, Keita Amemiya) and in the OAV series I.R.I.A - Zeiram the Animation (1994, Tetsuro Amino).
The handgun is a cocktail of various elements like bergman bayard 1910, roth 1908, rast und gasser 1898.

Qatar Accuses Saudis of Hampering Qatari Hajj Pilgrims
The Qatari authorities have accused Saudi Arabia of jeopardising the annual hajj pilgrimage to Mecca of Qatari pilgrims by refusing to guarantee their safety.
Saudi Arabia and its allies have been boycotting Qatar since June 5, accusing it of backing extremist groups and of ties to Shiite Iran, in the region's worst diplomatic crisis in years.
On July 20, Riyadh said that Qataris wanting to perform this year's hajj would be allowed to enter the kingdom for the pilgrimage, but imposed certain restrictions.
The Saudi hajj ministry said Qatari pilgrims arriving by plane must use airlines in agreement with Riyadh.
They would also need to get visas on arrival in Jeddah or Medina, their sole points of entry in the kingdom.
The Qatari Islamic affairs ministry, in a statement published by the official QNA news agency on Sunday, said the Saudi side had "refused to communicate regarding securing the pilgrims safety and facilitating their Hajj".
The ministry accused Riyadh of "intertwining politics with one of the pillars of Islam, which may result in depriving many Muslims from performing this holy obligation".
According to the statement, 20,000 Qatari citizens have registered to take part this year. The ministry said it denied Saudi claims that Doha had suspended those registrations.
"The distortion of facts is meant to set obstacles for the pilgrims from Qatar to Mecca, following the crisis created by the siege countries," the Qatari ministry added, referring to Saudi Arabia and its allies.
Some Gulf media claimed the Qatari statement was a call for the "internationalisation" of the management of the hajj season, which is run by the Saudi authorities.
"Any call to internationalise (the management of) hajj is an aggressive act and a declaration of war," Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir told Arabiya news channel on Sunday.
But Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani described the claims as "media fabrications".
"There has not been a single statement by a Qatari official concerning the internationalisation of hajj," he told Al-Jazeera news channel.
Qatar's National Human Rights Committee on Monday said it will complain about the Saudi restrictions to the United Nations, the Arab League and the Organisation of the Islamic Cooperation.
"Anti-Qatar rhetoric… threatens the security of Qatari pilgrims," the committee said in a statement.
The hajj, a pillar of Islam that capable Muslims must perform at least once in a lifetime, is to take place this year at the beginning of September.
Saudi Arabia and its allies Bahrain, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates cut diplomatic ties and imposed sanctions on Doha in June, including the closure of their airspace to Qatari airlines.
The four Arab states accuse Qatar of supporting extremists and of growing too close to Shiite-dominated Iran, the regional arch-rival of Sunni-ruled Saudi Arabia.
Qatar denies the allegations and accuses the Saudi-led bloc of imposing a "siege" on the tiny emirate.

Chelsea FC: Friendlies
Watch Fernando Torres' amazing miss against Olimpija Ljubljana
Share All sharing options for: Watch Fernando Torres' amazing miss against Olimpija Ljubljana
Fernando Torres had some very positive moments against Olimpija Ljubljana. The striker came on at the break and was involved in Kurt Zouma's winner, he also had a great, skillful flick to set up a Chelsea attack.
And, of course, all those positives will be forgotten, because this is what we'll take away from Fernando Torres' time in Slovenia.
That's an open goal from inside the six yard box. Ake's cross is a bit difficult to handle, yes, but Torres gets confused about what he's doing, stooping for a header before realising he can't make good contact that way, then letting the ball hit him in the shoulder and balloon over the crossbar.
If he'd somehow fallen unconscious dead mid-run, before trying to do ... well, whatever he was trying to do there, the ball would have hit his body and found its way into the net. An asleep Fernando Torres would have out-performed the awake version here. That, for me, is the mark of a truly great miss.
At least it's only pre-season.

Q: Trouble with displaying info from getter method QUESTION: I'm trying to find the win percentage (the formula for win percentage is wins/(wins + loses)). How do I take the values from wins and loses the user enters and add them to my Sysout function. Every time I run the program it displays:
East      W     L     PCT
Braves    45    66    0.000000
Cubs      87    77    0.000000

So what I'm trying to do is get the actual values instead of it saying "0.0000000"
public class Team {

    // Data fields...
    private int wins;
    private int loses;
    private String teamName;
    private String city;
    private String division;
    private double winPercentage;

    // Getters and setters...
    public int getWins() {
        return wins;
    }

    public void setWins(int wins) {
        this.wins = wins;
    }

    public int getLoses() {
        return loses;
    }

    public void setLoses(int loses) {
        this.loses = loses;
    }

    public String getTeamName() {
        return teamName;
    }

    public void setTeamName(String teamName) {
        this.teamName = teamName;
    }

    public String getCity() {
        return city;
    }

    public void setCity(String city) {
        this.city = city;
    }

    public String getDivision() {
        return division;
    }

    public void setDivision(String division) {
        this.division = division;
    }

    public double getWinPercentage() {
        return wins/(wins + loses);
    }

    public void setWinPercentage(double winPercentage) {
        this.winPercentage = winPercentage;
    }
}

public class PlayoffSelectorClass extends Team{

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        List<Team> teams  = new ArrayList<Team>();

        for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++) {

            Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

            System.out.println("Please enter team name: ");
            String name = input.nextLine();

            System.out.println("\nPlease enter the city " + name + " played in: ");
            String city = input.nextLine();

            System.out.println("\nPlease enter the division " + name + " play in: ");
            String division = input.nextLine();

            System.out.println("\nPlease enter the number of wins " + name + " has: ");
            Integer wins = input.nextInt();

            System.out.println("\nPlease enter the number of losses " + name + " has: ");
            Integer loses = input.nextInt();

            if (i < 5) {
                System.out.println("\nEnter your next team...\n");
            }

            Team team = new Team();
            team.setTeamName(name);
            team.setCity(city);
            team.setDivision(division);
            team.setWins(wins);
            team.setLoses(loses);
            team.setWinPercentage(wins / (wins + loses));

            teams.add(team);

        }

        System.out.println("East    W      L      PCT\n");

        for (Team team : teams) {
            System.out.printf("%s\t%s\t%s\t%f\n",team.getTeamName() + "    ", team.getWins() + "   " , team.getLoses(), team.getWinPercentage());
        }

    }
}

A: The problem is here :
public double getWinPercentage() {
    return wins/(wins + loses);
}

You are doing  integer division, i.e only keep the int part of the result, and implicitly cast it to a double. So for example if:
wins = 10;
loses = 20;

then winPercentage == 10/30 == 0.33.. and you only keep the 0 and the cast it to double. Hence the 0.0000... etc What you can do instead is:
public double getWinPercentage() {
    return wins/(double) (wins + loses);
}

The UDRI Human Factors Group
The UDRI Human Factors Group (HFG) is an ongoing partnership of experienced engineers and psychologists. We work closely with the human factors faculty of the University of Dayton Psychology Department. Our customer base includes the Department of Defense (DoD) and military contractor communities, private industry, and small business. We are also available to serve as consultants to other groups within the Research Institute to meet the specific customer requirements.
Human factors and ergonomics is often simply referred to as ergonomics. It is the science of exploring the mental and physical capabilities and limitations of humans, and incorporating this knowledge into the design, evaluation, operation, and maintenance of products and systems. When integrated early in system design, human factors knowledge can have a powerful and positive impact on profitability, usability, and safety. The history of human factors can be traced to World War II, when human factors emerged as a result of the research and design efforts of military systems specialists. For example, improvements in radio communication systems, standardization of aircraft displays and controls, and the development of flight simulators all came to fruition during this time. Human factors research has since been applied to space systems, industrial and office settings, consumer products, computers, and information systems.
The HFG consists of Human Factors and Ergonomics experts. Our roots can be traced to the Crew Systems Ergonomics Analysis Center (CSERIAC) at Wright-Patterson AFB, where each group member interacted extensively with military and commercial customers. Each member of our group has at least eight years of experience in the Human Factors community, and our senior members have nearly 20 years of experience in this field and have worked extensively with systems acquisition.
Our accomplishments include the revision of several Human Factors Engineering standards handbooks and tools, such as MIL-STD-1472, the primary human factors standard used by designers of military and DoD systems. Our experience with human factors standards and practices has been successfully applied in several areas. For the aviation community, the HFG has participated in the successful redesign of aircrew workstations to reduce crew discomfort and improve task performance. In the area of anthropometry (human measurement and modeling), we have validated stance and movement features for computer-based human models. Our user interface design work included development of rapid prototypes for early evaluation of future software systems. Our expertise in manpower, personnel, and training (MPT) resulted in the development of several computer-based training programs for DoD air- and land-based capabilities.
In addition to extensive experience with the DoD, the HFG has worked with large and small commercial businesses to improve their products. For example, the HFG performed an in-depth field evaluation of a national optical engineering company's head-worn display devices. As part of another project, a Phase II Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) program, the HFG is assessing and redesigning a glasses-mounted display for military aircraft maintenance applications. Our initial Phase I findings demonstrated the usability and potential of this technology for both commercial and government applications.
We plan to continue marketing our state-of-the-art capabilities to the military and industry.

On a sunny evening in September, I was sat in Astana, Kazakstan to attend the Constantinus International Awards for Management Consulting. As Director of Business Development at Challenges Worldwide, I was there to collect our award for the best consulting project by a British firm where Challenges won the award after training two young Brits and two young Ghanaians to deliver a 3-month consulting project with Ghanaian company Booomers International Limited who make bikes from Bamboo. Winning the British competition nominated us for the global award for which we picked up silver!
What are the Constantinus International Awards?
How did the award come about?
Since 2014, Challenges have trained over 700 young people from the UK and Africa in Professional Consulting and had them deliver consultancy support to over 400 African enterprises. When I started at Challenges 3.5 years ago I was excited to begin working in what for me what was new African countries, Ghana, Uganda & Zambia. I was looking forward to setting up our ICS programmes in these markets and getting to build a sustainable programme that aimed to upskill young people to have the skills and abilities required to grow companies, by providing them with internationally recognised training and a structured work placement in an SME that needs support. I was cautious over what could be achieved by using young people in a professional consulting context but excited that we were trying to build local capacity that would grow local opportunities for both young people and SMEs.
Over the past 3 years, I have been lucky enough to spend time with our teams of staff, volunteers and SMEs in each of our markets which now includes Rwanda. At every turn I have been proved wrong by the skills, drive and innovative ideas that our young people bring to the table, they are truly helping our SMEs grow and succeed!
It just goes to prove that when you provide passionate and enthusiastic young people with the correct training and support framework they can go on to achieve great things!
Thinking back to our first ICS programme in Summer 2014, where we took 19 young people from the UK to work with other young people and enterprises in Ghana and Uganda, I never thought I would be making a trip to Kazakhstan to represent Challenges at an International Management Consulting award ceremony, I am proud to receive this award for our work supporting Booomers to accelerate their growth and bring their environmentally friendly bicycle frames to the UK market. I am astounded by the achievements of the young people we have trained through our programme and their contribution to this project has been invaluable. It just goes to prove that when you provide passionate and enthusiastic young people with the correct training and support framework they can go on to achieve great things!
Now the lines are drawn, we are UK champions and global runners-up for an impactful and creative management consulting project, next year… gold!

Our projects in Namibia
Example 1 - Ovitoto
Ovitoto – under South African occupation, used to be the smallest reserve, the so called "Native Reserve Ovitoto" – today its population has grown to about 2000 people. The region has a school and a health station, but both are not very well equiped.
One of the classrooms at Okantjira (Ovitoto)
The school - a boardingschool - has had to introduce a system of shift lessons - due to the lack of classrooms. It is a boardingschool because, the pupils, especially the young ones, would have to master an unaccetably long way to school every day.
The healthstation is responsible for the complete region. The most common diseases are high bloodpressure,circulatory disturbances, asthmatic complaints and diabetes. There is also an AIDS-advisory board. The healthstation is in need of pharmaceuticals as well as other medical material, good trained medical staff and an ambulance truck.
Members of our union grew up in this region, went to school and still feel committed to it. They and our friends would like to support the school and the healthstation with various donations.
Example 2 – Kunene Region
Under South African rule Namibia's North West (Kunene Region, frequently adressed as Kaokoveld or Kaokoland) was systematically excluded from development.
The most popular transport vehicle for people and goods is a donkey- or mulewaggon
Today about 60.000 people - most of them otjiHerero speaking pastoralists - are living in an area larger than Switzerland. The region has one central hospital and a number of rudimentary health stations which cater for the needs of sick people from the region and from Angola's most southwestern districts.
Sick people have to either walk, or ride on donkeys or horse back, or to be driven in a car for several hundreds of kilometres to get to the only hospital in the region. This long and arduous way to the hospital and often long stays at the place of treatment makes it necessary for sick people to be accompanied by a number of relatives. These practical reasons but also the belief of the local culture that sick people should be intensely cared for by their relatives lead to situations in which accompanying relatives are forced to squat in make-shift houses and under catastrophic hygienic conditions near the hospital for months.
DeNaPa intends to erect a simple home for accompanying relatives of sick people, especially of sick children. This home will offer basic sleeping and cooking facilities and will be fitted with a sanitary block.

Traditionally, it's easiest to organize economic units working under the same employer in more or less the same vicinity. It's even better, as the auto workers showed us, if they work on assembly lines, so that just a few missing workers can stop production.
People who are scattered out, working under multiple employers, aren't so easy. Until recently, they were considered pretty well impossible to organize. But some groups, such as For Respect at Walmart, are organizing the impossible. In the photo, right to left, there's a retiree activist, a preacher, a Teamster, then a housewife. The rest are low-paid part-time Walmart workers. They're all in handcuffs waiting to be taken to a police station.
Once I rode a bus to a Farm Workers action in California. The other occupants were home health care workers. If there were 50 of them, then they had 50 employers, most of whom were old people with limited money. And yet, they were organized! The Service Employees organized them by targeting the state agency controlling their working conditions rather than the 50 employers!
All over America today, low-paid part-time food service employees are being signed up for the "Fight for $15" minimum wage movement. They're also signing up members of more substantial unions, students, and a whole lot of well-intentioned, high-intelligence people who don't otherwise have anything to do with food service.
The new progressive leadership of the AFL-CIO is emphasizing its constituency groups. In most cases, people don't have to be union members to join. The connection to organized labor makes them much more powerful.
Our traditional methods of organizing are way out of date. Revolutions are being organized today with social media, and American organizers are learning how it's done. The internet changes the very nature of organizing.
If we are going to save the planet and ourselves, every worker needs to be organized. Every worker can be organized.

Photography, martial arts, journalism, business development, Spanish teaching… is there anything Bruno can't turn his hand to?
Our offices are full of globetrotting travel fanatics, but having grown up in Chile and lived in Brazil, Hong Kong, Japan and Australia, Bruno deserves a gold star for his continent crossing.
With a taste for Japanese food, a tentative interest in Ghibli films, then a fascination with the language, Bruno embraced the opportunity to live in Japan as an exchange student. But moving to the country was just the beginning of his commitment.
Undefeated, he also participated in a karate competition which, by his own admission, he also didn't do particularly well in. We think it's all about the taking part, anyway.
After this stint in Japan he went to live, work (in business development) and study in Hong Kong, leaving two years later with an MA in International Relations, before joining the travel industry in Australia.
While seemingly able to make anywhere home, there are some things you simply can't take with you - seafood in Chile, all-you-can-eat Brazilian barbecue restaurants, Japanese kaiseki meals and sushiya, and proper Hong Kong yumcha joints. What better excuse to go back? Bruno certainly thinks so, using any chance he can to revisit Japan, discover new places and find his next favourite kaiseki restaurant.
"While living in Tokyo, I made a solo overnight trip to Shikinejima (a small island in the Izu archipelago famous for its hot springs). The funny part was that I did not check the weather forecast; a few hours after arriving in the island, a big storm rolled in and the ferries were cancelled for several days.
I spent roughly a week stranded on the island, befriending the locals with my limited use of the language at the time and enjoying the hot springs in the rain. A shy Japanese tourist asked if I could be their "foreigner friend" (literally), and we have kept in touch ever since!"

El 2000-2001 va guanyar un Avery Fisher Career Grant i va ser seleccionada per a tocar en el ECHO "Rising Stars" i en Chamber Music Society II, el programa d'artistes joves de la Chamber Music Society del Lincoln Center. En 2006 va ser guardonada del Premi Leonard Bernstein al Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival. En 2011 va rebre una beca Genius Grant de la MacArthur Foundation.

El 2004 es va graduar en la Universitat de Colúmbia de Nova York amb un títol en història russa.

Six men in matching helmets and military-style utility vests approached the hotel's dock via boat.
A fake terrorist attack has panicked guests at the Hôtel du Cap, the five-star luxury hotel frequented by celebrity guests during the Cannes film festival.
The 'attack', which was in fact a stunt by a French internet company, happened yesterday, Friday the 13th. Six men in matching helmets and military-style utility vests approached the hotel's dock via boat, before one of them began marching up the steps towards frightened guests, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Savet said that he was shocked by the fact that the men seemed to be dressed as an "Isis-like" militia group.
Organisers at the Cannes film festival have called in 500 additional security personnel this year as the threat of an attack by ISIS is, following the attacks on Paris and Brussels, heightened.
Last month French security forces staged a mock attack on the film festival's principal venue, the Palais. "Terrorists" wielding automatic weapons fired blanks at police, before climbing over the "wounded" (volunteers wearing red bibs) and storming the steps of the conference centre.
The du Cap, which sits eight miles east along the Cote d'Azur coast from Cannes, regularly hosts some of the movie industry's most famous figures during the film festival. On its way to the hotel, the boat reportedly sped past yachts owned by Steven Spielberg and Roman Abramovitch.
Cannes police are investigating the stunt, which a du Cap spokesperson has called "a bad joke – a really bad one".
