I had a very curious relationship with myself as a kid. (I need to preface this by saying that I was raised by two exceptionally loving parents and a wonderful family. I can in all honesty say that I have been loved every day of my life.) But as a kid, I didn't necessarily understand it the way I do now. I didn't outwardly dislike myself; I was content in my own world of reading and writing, and I liked school and watching TV and spending time with my cousins and friends. But maybe it was because I had two younger brothers, one of whom was (and still is) very charismatic and loved the spotlight, that I found myself wanting to – no, needing to change in order to be someone worth knowing. I needed, somehow, more attention. I wanted the world – which is very difficult to navigate as an elementary schooler – to know who I was. So I tried.
For all of the things I liked about myself, there were so many things I wanted to change. I always felt a step or two behind, always off-trend, always missing what everyone else seemed to intrinsically know. And I needed that validation, I guess. Parents and teachers always were ready with praises, but it was the recognition from my peers that meant the most to me. The only trouble was, it was the one I lacked the most. It also didn't help that my ultra-charismatic brother, who went to the same school, was the class favorite. He always had an invite to the party, a large group of friends around, and he always knew what to say. I was always a bit chubby in middle school, and straight up ballooned in size well through high school and college, adding to my depression. I found it harder and harder to fight through all of the comments about my weight and the comparing I'd do to the other girls at school, but it was pretty plain to me that there wasn't a whole lot about myself that I liked.
My parents would try to help, give me little pep talks and try to cheer me up, but not much clicked until college. That's when I really found out who I was, and was able to surround myself with friends who I had so much in common with – and found out I could be my true self around. Because of them, I grew into a (mostly) confident adult who (sometimes) struggles with anxiety but who genuinely, in all honesty, today can say that she loves herself. It's been a long process, but I'm really glad of it, because it's made me into the person I am today.
My oldest child is starting elementary school this year, and I've already seen him comparing himself to his peers, pointing out to me where he doesn't measure up. It breaks my heart, but I remember what it felt like for me to be his age. So I give him an extra hug, give him those extra moments of encouragement and send him on his way, ready with a pep talk of my own for when he gets off the school bus at the end of the day. He might not appreciate it now, but maybe he'll get it, the way I once did, when I became a grown up.

New US$2 billion Investments Programme to Support Growth of Green Finance in Singapore
Singapore, 11 November 2019… The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) announced today that it has set up a US$2 billion green investments programme (GIP) to invest in public market investment strategies that have a strong green focus. This will help to support the Singapore financial centre in promoting environmentally sustainable projects and mitigating climate change risks in Singapore and the region.
2 The GIP is a major prong of the green finance action plan announced by Mr Ong Ye Kung, Minister for Education, Singapore, and Board Member, MAS, at the 2019 Singapore FinTech Festival (SFF) x Singapore Week of Innovation and TeCHnology (SWITCH). The GIP aims to foster the growth of a strong and diverse ecosystem of green financing capabilities in Singapore.
3 MAS will place funds with asset managers who are committed to drive regional green efforts out of Singapore and contribute to MAS' other green finance initiatives including developing green markets and managing environmental risks. Selected managers will be those who have demonstrated a firm commitment to deepening their green investment capabilities across functions such as research, stewardship, policy and portfolio management, accelerate local capability transfers, and increase the management of green-focused funds in Singapore. We are also looking for managers who can demonstrate their capabilities in incorporating environmental considerations into their investment process and actively directing capital towards investments that have a better green profile. The green capabilities and experience of the team managing the strategies will be a key part of the evaluation. The deep engagement with these asset managers will help to further the development of Singapore's green financing ecosystem, as well as strengthen MAS' understanding of climate change risks and to better position MAS' own investment portfolio for long-term sustainable returns.
4 MAS' first investment under the GIP will be a US$100m placement in the Bank for International Settlements (BIS)' Green Bond Investment Pool (GBIP). Together with other participating central banks, MAS hopes that this initiative will help catalyse further deepening of the green bond market.

We would like to remind you that some bacteria can cause diarrhea simply through the secretion of a toxin. We refer those cases as food poisoning. Many different bacteria make these toxins, such as Staphylococcus aureus. When you get food poisoning due to the enterotoxin of S. aureus the symptoms (diarrhea, intestinal cramps) will occur few hours after eating.
On the other hand a gastroenteritis is due to the presence of bacteria in the intestinal tract that are replicating and causing a diarrhea.
Besides bacteria (Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigella,…), viruses (norovirus, enterovirus) can also be the cause of gastroenteritis. Similar symptoms are experienced when infected with pathogenic amoebas (Entamoeba histolytica).
Food borne pathogens do not only cause food poisoning or gastroenteritis. Listeria monocytogenes can cause meningitis, sepsis, pneumonia and induce miscarriage in pregnant women.
Cases of Listeria monocytogenes have to be reported in Switzerland since 1975, but epidemics occur rarely. So far there have been only four.
A small epidemic of listeria was observed at the CHUV in 1983-84. It lasted 15 months and affected 11 neonates and 14 adults causing mainly neuromeningeal diseases (7 meningo-encephalitis, 3 meningitis and 1 encephalitis). The mortality during the epidemic reached 45% (5 out of 11) (1).
A few years later in 1987 a second epidemic with more cases occurred in the French-speaking part of Switzerland. The source of the epidemic was linked back to vacherin Mont d'Or cheese contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes serotype 4b (2). 57 people were affected with a mortality of 32% (18 patients) mainly due to meningoencephalitis caused by the bacteria (3).
The third epidemic occurred in 2005 in the state of Neuchatel touching 8 people that consumed artisanal fresh cheese. The patients were elderly and with an impaired immune system. The mortality rate was 38% (3 patients). There were also two miscarriages during this epidemic. The production of the cheese was halted and retracted from the market, which allowed the epidemic to be stopped rapidly (4).
The fourth epidemic occurred in 2011 in 3 states in Switzerland with 9 patients that ate ham imported from Italy by a single vendor. There were no fatalities and the symptoms were mostly intestinal with some headaches and one case of pneumonia.

Our School Our School
Latest ERO Report
Our school was founded in 1928 and came under the leadership of the Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions.
The Order of Our Lady of the Missions was founded by Sister Euphrasie Barbier. Originally from France, she wanted her sisters to be straightforward people without grand pretensions. She wanted simplicity of hospitality and welcome and a special quality in relationships.
One way in which we pay tribute to our founding order is through our school house teams, named Euphraise, Lyon and Vitalis. Fierce competition for house points is common!
Our School has a unique charism that sets it apart from all other Catholic schools. The Mission Sister believed:
Mission is everywhere.
Gospel is proclaimed by life witness.
Providing service to others in our schools, particularly to those in need, socially and financially.
Providing service to others in our community and country.
Providing Global outreach.
Our motto "Through Faith We Shine" stresses the need for students to follow the life of the Missions' Sisters who lead a life of goodness, providing education and knowledge for many generations of students at Our Lady Star of the Sea School. We have been providing a unique education for our students for close to 100 years and cherish our special association with our founders.

How strange Swati! My experience has been the opposite- the first time my mum took me to a fancy salon in Bombay somewhere in Colaba when I was 14. I had long waist-length hair till then, and got it cut real short and loved it! Since then I did all kinds of stuff to my hair- colouring, streaking it red etc etc! And lots of hair-cuts, mostly at some fancy overpriced places. But my hair over time thinned out so much and got so damaged, I never had it longer than shoulder length coz of the maintenance. But a few years ago I started to look up natural methods of hair care and started changing my routine, also bought all kinds of 'natural' products- some great, some not so much. Slowly I've been able to grow reasonably healthy hair and the damaged part has finally grown out and been cut off! The main issue I have is that most of the products used in hair spas are full of silicones and only coat the hair and conceal damage.
However, a hair-spa with organic products looks tempting, will surely try one when I feel like splurging!
Very Informative , I am Anjali from Hyderabad. I have been using few home remedies for my Hair fall issue and i can see the improvement.
I am always sure to invest in my hair care. Even if I money is tight, I will look for an alternative way to save. Salon hair care, at least for cuts and color, is so important for the health and quality of your hair. There are plenty of fairly affordable salons out there that will do great work, too! Great post, I agree 100%.
Very helpful post. My family members have different kind of hair so that, it's difficult to choose the right shampoo or treatments for hair caring. Thanks for sharing!
Hair fall has been major problem these days, I have been seeing many people suffering from hair fall. I would love to recommend those people your blog I have gone through your some articles. You offer really great tips and advice on it. I am going to wait for your next post. Keep sharing informative post with us.
Yep I agree! Salons definitely know better about hair color and hair cuts. I definitely enjoy getting my hair done in a salon better than doing it myself at home anyway! A couple of relaxing hours with no kids and no chores is a nice treat! Between salon appointments I make sure to take care of my hair with high quality products and make sure to avoid the yucky chemicals.
We all know that one person who tried coloring their hair and failed. I remember a friend who tried to go blonde and it looked horrible. It is really risky to try and do yourself. If you want a quality look I recommend finding a good salon.
I can't agree more with your post. It is so important to maintain your hair healthy and while it may seem easy and cost effective to do yourself, having to pay to fix a mistake is usually more expensive than having gone to a professional in the first place. Great tips, thanks so much for all the useful information provided!
I've stayed away from the salon for a few years now because I wanted to grow out my hair without them chopping it off every few months. Like you, I'm realizing though that they are professionals and they do know what they are doing. I've damaged my hair a lot from coloring it at home so I think I'm ready to get some professional care for my hair. I think my hair will appreciate it. Thanks for these 5 reasons why salon treatments are better.
You make a good point about the value of the professional experience. As you shared, these individuals have often been trained at the best and by the best.
Wow! such an informative post. I also always thought that salons are waste of money for girls. But after reading your blog i am quite much in favor of salon. I like your tips too. Great work.
I agree with most of things you said,hair coloring has some rules if you want to shade them completely opposite for your natural color and we should leave them to the experts that than ruining everything.Hair cuts tho I prefer doing myself as I don't like them chopping my hair in half when I just say chop 2 inches.I love having hair spa,yes it does improve your hair quality but since I started using a really good sulfate free shampoo and my fav conditioner as well I deep condition my sclap with hot oil,i don't find the need to have a hair spa as I can see much more good difference than I had wid hair spas which I did every month for 12 months.
well, yes, this is absolutely possible! good products and great at home treatment really helps keep hair in good condition along with proper nutrition. but, yes hair coloring is best left to experts.
Great post, it is certainly important to invest in your hair! Letting a professional take care of it is always the best decision. Thanks for sharing!


Grrrrr. Somehow my Saturday post didn't go live! So I guess another day where we have two posts!!
How do I want to die???
Do I want to die at the age of 50 when my hover-round that I may have to use at that point because of severe obesity, gets struck my lightening???
Do I want to die at the age of 60, after living in a nursing home for a few years all because of complications from my weight...diabetes, heart disease, burned out knees and hips...a body that can no longer stand the pressure and demands of an obese body???
But maybe....just maybe I can be 70 years old and standing on the summit of a mountain that I just hiked....and planning on hiking a thru-trip of the Appalachian trail.
Maybe...just maybe I can be 80 years old and biking the whole length C&O canal on a tandem bike with Jason!
Maybe at 90 or 100 or even plus some I will die. We are not immortal. But Maybe I will be the death that everyone talks about...the 100 year old lady that was out extreme skiing and died in a freak avalanche!!
How do I want to die??
I don't want to die when my hover-round /lark/wheelchair gets struck my lightening! I want to go out shaking my fist at the world and living life to the fullest!
So what does that mean? That means that right here and right now I have to make changes!!!! Now is the time to fix the unhealthy habits in my life. Now is the time to create healthy habits that will increase the odds of a healthy long lasting active healthy life!
I have slowly been implementing these changes.
I've been tracking my food.
I've challenged myself to 2017 miles in the year 2017 in an attempt to move more.
I want to live...and with Jason in my life, all of a sudden I want to live even more! I want to grow old with him and have a fun active life!
So this weekend I made a vow. This weekend I decided that my quest for my steps wasn't enough. I needed to step it up. I didn't aim big. I knew that there were two days that I would be leaving for work at 7AM and two days that I wouldn't be leaving until 9AM. My goal? Exercise two times! That is two outside runs. Optimistically I would like to get to the gym early on those 7AM days...but I set my goal at 2 days. I want to have a victory and not yet another failure!
This morning I woke up and laid in bed. It was dark outside. I knew I wasn't going out to run yet. I laid there and relaxed. And then I started to try to reason my way out of running! The weather was probably bad! It was dark. Was that a pain in my side???
Then I read a post on Facebook where some people were putting their daily goals out there. And they were aiming for 5 times this week! Or even more! Yeah...I felt like a wuss!!! I posted and declared my goals...and furthermore announced my plan to run!! Oh yeah..as soon as I did it, I kicked myself!!!
But it motivated me to get up and get dressed!!!
And then I looked at the dollhouse I am building. I worked on the porch and bay window last night...it was taped/clamped. I so wanted to see it. So I sat down, dressed for my run to check it out!!
But then I thought about the bathroom and kitchen...the first two rooms I will tackle when it is completely done. I wanted to see how the bathroom stuff that I have would look and get an idea of the layouts!!!
I laid paper and drew some possible kitchen cabinets on the floor..
I flew...because I was NOT failing! I stepped outside and my heart stopped!
Wet!!! It was raining!!! But I kept moving and got 2.2 miles in!!!
It was rough....slow...and just not a good run...but does that surprise me? No, my previous run was on thanksgiving day!!! That's a lot of time and I didn't expect it to be easy!
So this weekend was another fabulous one...we tried to stay moving and active with antique shops and looking through junk! (And antiques). We also spent a day at Arlington National Cemetery. We walked...no tour bus for us!!!
And a beautiful overlook of our nations capital! I got my steps in that day for sure!!!!
A good weekend! The weather is supposed to be fabulous next weekend...do I smell a bike ride or a hike????

Q: How to get src of an IFrame after i have preformed a Server.Transfer? I have an IFrame loading multiple pages, after the page submits the C# Behind code uses Server.Transfer to move the IFrames view to my Success page.
When I check the src on the onload event it always shows the src path to the original page and not my success page.
This is how I check the src:
var arr = $('#IFrameDam').attr('src').split('.');
var src = arr[0].toString() + "." + arr[1].toString();
if (src == "GISuccess.aspx" || src == "GIFailed.aspx" || src == "GIConstruction.aspx") {
  //do something
}

Edit
Using var action = $('#IFrameDam')[0].contentWindow.location;
Still does not get me GISuccess.aspx

A: src attribute of an iframe is a property that exists outside the page displayed in the iframe. Navigation inside the iframe does not change it. If the iframe and the parent page are on the same domain, you can establish javascript communication between them and obtain iframe.contentWindow.location.
Update:
About Server.Transfer. When a browser window is told to obtain content (e.g. html page) from a url, it contacts the server at that url to get the response content. For the browser, html that comes back corresponds to that url. When you use Server.Transfer, the html output from the page to which you transfer is the response content, regardless of what the actual (true) url of the latter page is. When Response.Redirect is used - it goes back to the browser telling it to obtain the content from the new url specified in Redirect.

Alcohol Is Really Pissed Off at Marijuana Right Now
Posted by Skunk on Nov 8th, 2013 | 0 comments
Marijuana has been giving alcohol a bad name. So contend booze lobbyists, who are getting sick of an ad campaign that makes the claim that pot is safer than their beloved beverages. "We're not against legalization of marijuana, we just don't want to be vilified in the process," said one alcohol industry representative who didn't want to be quoted harshing his colleagues mellow. "We don't want alcohol to be thrown under the bus, and we're going to fight to defend our industry when we are demonized."
The marijuana industry has had a good couple of years: a recent poll found that 58 percent of the country thinks the product should be legal, recreational use has been legalized in two states already, and this past election saw the city of Portland, Maine, legalize 2.5 ounces of pot. Ahead of the vote in Portland—which received 70 percent support—the Marijuana Policy Project put up signs around the city with messages like "I prefer marijuana over alcohol because it doesn't make me rowdy or reckless," and "I prefer marijuana over alcohol because it's less harmful to my body."
Alcohol lobbyists believe it's a "red herring" to compare the two. "We believe it's misleading to compare marijuana to beer," said Chris Thorne of the Beer Institute. "Beer is distinctly different both as a product and an industry."
Thorne notes that the alcohol industry is regulated, studied extensively, and perhaps more importantly already an accepted part of the culture.
"Factually speaking beer has been a welcome part of American life for a long time," he said. "The vast majority drink responsibly, so having caricatures won't really influence people."
But MPP takes issue with the idea they are painting a false picture. In a recent Op-Ed for CNN, Dan Riffle, the group's director of federal policies, notes that according to the Centers for Disease Control excessive alcohol use is the third leading lifestyle-related cause of death. Booze also "plays a role in a third of all emergency room visits," he says.
And as to whether it's fair to compare the two substances?
"That's like saying we shouldn't talk about relative harms of sushi to fried chicken," said Mason Tvert, who in addition to working at MPP wrote a book called Marijuana is Safer: So Why are We Driving People to Drink? "It's important that people know the relative harms of all substances, so there's no reason not to talk about the two most popular substances in the world."
Tvert says he could "appreciate their concerns if we were exaggerating or making anything up, but we aren't. We are simply pointing out the facts."
Perhaps there's a need for a booze and weed summit. Tagline: shots taken, not fired.

Find Top Barber Schools in South Dakota
Why Become a Barber in South Dakota?
Hairstyles are increasingly being considered by people in South Dakota to be a projection of their personalities. As a result, South Dakota barbers are still very much in demand. However, most people are looking for trained professionals and will not just drop in on any local barber shop displaying a red, white and blue pole. Training to become a barber is a career move that offers many benefits for those that are both artistic and sociable. The artistic side is indulged by creating a plethora of different and sometimes challenging hairstyles. The social aspect obviously comes into play by keeping the customer engaged while creating your masterpiece. In fact, some barbers are so proud of their artistic accomplishments that they will take photos of their finished hairstyles and post them on their websites as a portfolio to attract new clients. And barbering lends itself to a more intimate form of customer service by providing time with the client while cutting his (or her) hair. This time spent together can lead to the development of a rapport or even a new friendship. As a result, many customers come back not only because they are pleased with the service, but also to enjoy the social amenities that their neighborhood South Dakota barbershop can offer.
Considering South Dakota Barber Schools?
South Dakota (/- dəˈkoʊtə/ ( listen)) is a U.S. state in the Midwestern region of the United States. It is named after the Lakota and Dakota Sioux Native American tribes, who compose a large portion of the population and historically dominated the territory. South Dakota is the seventeenth largest by area, but the fifth smallest by population and the 5th least densely populated of the 50 United States. As the southern part of the former Dakota Territory, South Dakota became a state on November 2, 1889, simultaneously with North Dakota. Pierre is the state capital and Sioux Falls, with a population of about 174,000, is South Dakota's largest city.
South Dakota is bordered by the states of North Dakota (to the north), Minnesota (to the east), Iowa (to the southeast), Nebraska (to the south), Wyoming (to the west), and Montana (to the northwest). The state is bisected by the Missouri River, dividing South Dakota into two geographically and socially distinct halves, known to residents as "East River" and "West River".[8]
Eastern South Dakota is home to most of the state's population, and the area's fertile soil is used to grow a variety of crops. West of the Missouri, ranching is the predominant agricultural activity, and the economy is more dependent on tourism and defense spending. Most of the Native American reservations are in West River. The Black Hills, a group of low pine-covered mountains sacred to the Sioux, are in the southwest part of the state. Mount Rushmore, a major tourist destination, is there. South Dakota has a temperate continental climate, with four distinct seasons and precipitation ranging from moderate in the east to semi-arid in the west. The state's ecology features species typical of a North American grassland biome.

DEEP RUN — The future may be bright for South Lenoir soccer, but the present has quite a few rays of sun as well.
The Blue Devils seemed locked into another tight game with West Craven Thursday, as it was scoreless at halftime. Considering it took a late Candace Pierce penalty kick to register a 1-0 win in Vanceboro March 18, the stage was set for another frantic finish.
Instead, the Blue Devils scored their goals in a 25-minute span to take a 4-0 victory. South Lenoir has won five straight contests and is 8-2 on the season, one year after winning a school-record 10 games. South Lenoir coach David Whaley said it wasn't an easy win and the contributions from the upperclassmen have helped immensely.
"It's been senior leadership and the girls have given everything they've got to this program," Whaley said. "West Craven is a tough team to score against and their coach is a class act—this wasn't an easy victory. Before the game, considering the wind, the coaching staff decided it was best to play a more defensive game in the first half.
Skarlett Gonzalez and Candace Pierce scored six minutes after the start of the second half, followed by Gracie Reavis and Pierce bringing in a second goal.
"I thought this game would be like the first one, but we were able to control the ball way more in the second half," Gonzalez said.
The focus has shifted toward Washington on March 22 and while the Blue Devils lost the first meeting 11-2, South Lenoir trailed 3-2 heading into halftime. With a victory, the team can claim a tie for the conference lead.
Whaley said the potential of maintaining this level or surpassing it is high.

Q: Activity wait for Intent What I'm trying to do

Hello Guys, I'm trying to create a SplashScreen which starts a Service over an Intent. After the Service is started to Activity(SplashScreen) should wait until it receive an Intent from my Service.
Question

What do I need to do, that my Activity waits until it received the Intent from my Service. It would be nice if you could provide me a good tutorial or some code-snippets.
Down here you find the Code of my SplashScreen.
Code

package de.stepforward;

import de.stepforward.service.VideoService;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class SplashActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.splash);

        // Sagt dem Video-Service das er beginnen soll die
        // Videos herunter zu laden
        Intent LoadVideos = new Intent(this, VideoService.class);
        LoadVideos.putExtra("VIDEO_SERVICE", "start");
        startService(LoadVideos);

        // In this thread I want that it waits for my Intent
        // and than it goes to the next Activity
        Thread splashThread = new Thread() {

            @Override
            public void run() {
                try {
                    int waited = 0;
                    while (waited < 3000) {
                        sleep(100);
                        waited += 100;
                    }
                }
                catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    // do nothing
                }
                finally {
                    finish();
                    final Intent Showvideo = new Intent(SplashActivity.this,
                                                        ChannelTest.class);
                    startActivity(Showvideo);
                }
            }
        };
        splashThread.start();
    }
}

A: See this link it might be helpful for you. You can monitor your service state from your activity.
Restful API service

A: Here is what your architecture should look like :
INTENT_CST

String START_INIT_ACTION = "your.package.name.START_INIT";
String INIT_ENDED_ACTION = "your.package.name.INIT_ENDED";

SplashActivity

In onCreate:
startService(new Intent(START_INIT_ACTION)

In onResume:
If you choose to send a broadcast in your service :
registerReceiver(new BroadcastReceiver(){
    //implement onChange()},
    new IntentFilter(INIT_ENDED_ACTION));

In onPause, unregister your receiver to free memory
LoadingService

Extend AsyncTask to do your background stuff. In onPostExecute, 2 options :
startActivity(new Intent(...)) // as your doing in your post

or
sendBroadcast(new Intent(INIT_ENDED_ACTION)); stopSelf();

Your manifest

Declare the service LoadingService with an IntentFilter with an <action name="your.package.name.START_INIT"/>

A: starting a service does not affect foreground screen .so launch splashscreen and start service , as you are doing right now . do operations in service, after that start new activity form service itself .


The Joseph Giles team has been hard at work over the summer months developing beautiful new ironmongery to meet the demand for knurled and textured products.
The popular and continued use of natural fibres and textiles and organic shapes in design schemes this year has generated a high demand from architects and interior designers for complementary, luxury ironmongery using handcrafted methods.
To meet this demand, the design team at Joseph Giles has expanded the range to include a new lever handle, with matching cabinet ware.
The result is a well-proportioned, luxurious door handle that is both subtle and statement in styling. Made of solid brass, the textured and tactile finish is pleasing to the touch and ensures a comfortable hold.
Our new knurled products will be available in a range of finishes, including special finishes to order, from December.

Director: Alexander Payne
Starring: Matt Damon, Christoph Waltz, Hong Chau, Kristen Wiig, Rolf Lassgard, Ingjerd Egeberg, Udo Kier.
Written by: Alexander Payne and Jim Taylor
Cert: 15
Release date: 24th January 2018
Downsizing, the latest film from director Alexander Payne, famed for the likes of About Schmidt, Sideways and Election, looks like a film brimming with big ideas and huge potential. Unfortunately, this is a film that starts off ambitiously and ends up a crashing bore as it seems the director and co-writer, Jim Taylor, have no idea what to do with such a cracking first half. What also makes this a disappointing experience is that those who view it are certainly going to come up with a dozen ways it could go and they are miles better than what is on the screen.
The world is becoming overpopulated and causing environmental difficulties. Scientists have come up with a solution: shrinking people and allowing them to live in purpose-built areas with loads of possibilities. Struggling Paul sees the journey as a way of never having to worry about money again, so he and his wife, Audrey, sign up. The day arrives and Paul is shrunk but discovers he is alone in his new world and finds himself making new friends who open his eyes to what could happen.
Films about shrinking people are not unusual but the premise here, about ordinary people, provides plenty of room to manoeuvre. There's the comedy road, with the little people coping with the rest of the world being so big, or the horror aspect, that of fighting survival from the land al la The Incredible Shrinking Man. What Payne has done is squandered the initial premise for something far more rambling and often incoherent.
The first hour of the film has a sense of fun, as we watch Paul and Audrey making the decision to change their lives forever, preparing for the big day, listening to the arguments to and for taking the leap into the new existence. Even when Paul discovers that he is alone on this journey throws up huge steps to more comic potential. Yet it's the moment Paul moves into this new land that the film goes way off the rails.
Introduced to his party-loving neighbour, Dusan and the Vietnam celebrity, Ngoc Lan-Tran, a woman who was a human rights activist who took on the shrinking process and lost a leg in the process, who is now a cleaner for Dusan and becomes a huge interest to Paul, the film cannot decide what it wants to be. Forming a satire about modern life and dangers it poses turns into a forced romance which then turns into an eco-warning when the unlikely group meet the originator of the process, who then explains about the impending doom ahead, it becomes increasingly depressing and, worse still, unbelievably boring.
The script isn't as clever as it thinks it is. Where Payne and Taylor's films have worked well before is creating interesting characters and putting them in unusual situations. Here is just doesn't work, mainly because Paul isn't that interesting. He is a fairly bland man who is kind and caring but that's it. Schmidt was a cantankerous old man with an acid tongue and this was used to great comic value in About Schmidt. Even the warring teacher/student in Election had enough interest that you could watch them individually and not get bored. Paul is, quite frankly, dull and doesn't have anything that interesting about him
Matt Damon as Paul is likeable enough but it's not enough to carry the film and so we watch just an unextraordinary man going through life without really challenge himself. He meets a woman who has plenty of bite and spends the last part of the movie pushing him around. Christoph Waltz puts on an unusual European accent as Jack's party-happy neighbour while Hong Chau is about the best thing in the film as the Vietnam woman who unexpectedly falls for Jack.
Downsizing is a bit of a waste as far as effort is concerned from both the makers and the viewers. It is a film loaded with possibilities but delivering none and it has to go down as one of the big disappointments of the year. I hope this is only a small blip in Alexander Payne's CV and that he comes back bigger and better and to the world which we have grown to love about his off-kilt movies. Think we should forget about this and move on.

BDO to overtake Grant Thornton following Moore Stephens deal
30 November 2018 Consultancy.uk
With BDO and Moore Stephens reportedly poised to clinch a merger deal in the near future, the duo are positioned to leapfrog Grant Thornton as the UK's fifth largest professional services firm. The transaction is expected to complete in spring 2019, and will create an entity with a gross annual revenue of approximately £600 million.
The professional services scene of the UK is still dominated by the Big Four, as it is just about everywhere else on the planet. PwC remains the largest, reporting annual revenues of £3.76 billion in autumn 2018, followed by its nearest competitor Deloitte, at £3.38 billion. EY is the third largest accounting and consulting firm in the UK, and while KPMG is yet to report its annual figures for 2018, as the last of the Big Four to do so each year, it is likely to retain its position as the UK's fourth largest auditing and advisory firm on revenue.
While the quartet's dominance is so utter that it has provoked calls from critics for government intervention to boost competition, particularly in auditing, the Big Four retain a seemingly unassailable lead in the market. Beyond that grouping, however, life is very different. At the time of writing, Grant Thornton remains the UK's fifth largest auditing and advisory firm, having brought in £500 million in its latest financial year. Regardless of the recent dramatic departure of the firm's CEO, Sacha Romanovitch, this figure is likely to have increased in 2018; and yet Grant Thornton may still lose its place as the 'best of the rest' in the UK.
That is because a proposed deal between the next largest competitor, BDO, and fellow top 10 professional services firm Moore Stephens could be on course to forge a company with a revenue £100 million higher than that of Grant Thornton. BDO, the sixth largest consulting and accounting firm in the UK, reported that underlying revenue for this year hit £464 million. The deal would add a further financial clout of £138 million to that from Moore Stephens, creating the fifth largest firm in the UK in the process. The purchase would also consolidate BDO's position ahead of RSM, which currently enjoys annual UK revenue which is over £130 million less than BDO.
Reports in the UK suggest that BDO and Moore Stephens are already in the advanced stages of merger discussions. Sources with knowledge of the proceedings have confirmed Partners at both firms have approved the proposed merger, which is now subject to final contracts. The deal is hoped to craft a new entity which will not only enjoy larger revenue, but be the leader in advising the UK's entrepreneurial mid-sized businesses in a period of rapid change, thanks to digital disruption and the completion of Brexit. This period looks set to prove especially lucrative for consultancies catering to mid-tier businesses, unsure of how best to weather the storm, as well as navigate audit, tax and advisory matters.
To that end, the move would also look to cement BDO's position as the first-choice auditor for AIM businesses, where it recently extended its lead over the Big Four themselves. The new combined firm will be one of the top auditors in the country based on the number of UK-listed companies it audits. Elsewhere, the two firms operate in similar sectors, including energy, technology, retail, real estate, financial services and more. Moore Stephens also has a strong client base in the shipping, insurance and donor assurance sectors.
New number 5 in the market
The conclusion of the conjoining of the firms is anticipated for spring 2019, with the combined firm commanding a gross annual revenue of over £600 million, delivered by 5,000 staff across the country. BDO is reported to be considering adding a second London office to its headquarters in Baker Street to accommodate this headcount growth, while retaining its city-based presence for clients after the merger. The merged firm will remain part of BDO internationally – the largest mid-tier accountancy organisation in the world with revenues of over $8 billion and operations in 162 countries.
Paul Eagland, Managing Partner, BDO, said, "If ever there were a time for firms to turbo-charge their growth, it's now. As a combined firm, we offer greater choice, competition and scalability to the top-end of the market, and are better placed to deal with any economic disturbance from Brexit… BDO is in a great position in the market, both in the UK and across the world. In the wake of Carillion and the subsequent focus on competition in the audit market – the UK market now has a better appreciation of BDO's capability and quality. This deal increases our credibility further and proves our commitment to competing in the top-end of the market."
Simon Gallagher, Managing Partner, Moore Stephens, added, "Clients are asking us to deliver an ever-increasing range and depth of solutions, provided globally. Combining with BDO makes providing that much easier. Moore Stephens is a profitable business delivering double digit growth for several years in a row. This merger will allow us to remain on that kind of trajectory. It's the people who will make this merger a success, which will translate into greater career opportunities and development, allowing them to deliver more valuable services to clients. BDO is also a well-respected, financially-stable and focused firm, with an entrepreneurial heritage. Combined, we offer something truly unique."

The librarian's role has expanded well beyond books | Photos by Jay Paul

Natalie Draper, manager at the Richmond Public Library's main branch
Outside the Franklin Street entrance of the Richmond Public Library's main branch, 63-year-old John Pegg, sweaty from the sun and smoking a cigarette, sits on a bench to read a book. "My favorite authors are Hemingway and Faulkner," he says.
Homeless after "losing a job and being a chronic alcoholic — but I'm getting treatment," he emphasizes, Pegg explains that his life wasn't always this way.
He's often inside the library researching how to improve his current situation. The librarians, he says, are helping him get his life back on track.
"Librarians are wise people," Pegg says. "They'll furnish you with solid advice."
They also help him with computer skills. "I'm an internet idiot, but they go 'clackety-clack,' " he says, moving his fingers as if typing on a keyboard, "and they come up with the information you're looking for in a heartbeat."
"You'll see a lot more librarians out from behind the desk," says Natalie Draper, manager at the Richmond Public Library's main branch. "I think the focus has shifted from collecting to connecting."
Richmond's nine library branches recorded nearly 800,000 visits during the last fiscal year, with about 630,000 items checked out, Draper says.
But these days, it's more than books that draw people to the library; new technology is a huge reason people visit, and librarians are keeping up with the times. The Main Branch's Innovation Lab includes a 3D printer, 3D scanner and virtual reality goggles, among other equipment.
"The expectation of library workers is that they have a high degree of digital proficiency," Draper says. "I may be expected to do anything from helping someone set up email to teaching a 3D printing class or leading a group on a virtual reality experience on any given day."
Reynolds Community College student Darius Goodwyn uses the library's computers for schoolwork and appreciates that the library keeps up with emerging technology. "It gives students, and people in general, a chance to gain that new knowledge in this technological era," he says.
Draper and Jonah Butler prepare to livestream a lecture at the library.
Librarians at the Richmond Public Library also assist people like Pegg, connecting them with social services.
"We have a lot of patrons who are experiencing homelessness or are in some sort of crisis," Draper says. Partnering with trained social workers, she adds, "We always work to find creative solutions to serve the information needs of patrons, and for some people that's 'Where can I find housing, health care, a shower or lunch?' "
Recently, Draper and other librarians who have volunteered to do so have been trained to use opioid overdose reversal kits to save lives.
Changes to the library facility also reflect changing times. No longer filled with endless rows of bookshelves, a card catalog and a librarian at a desk whispering "Shhh!" to noisy patrons (though there are still quiet areas), alongside the new innovation labs the library now has open rooms featuring comfortable seating arrangements that invite discussion about educational topics.
The library also offers "enriching and educational programs based on the needs and interests of the community," says Draper.
Most of these programs are technology-based learning opportunities, but it's a sewing class that's in high demand here. Draper teaches the class. She designs and makes her own clothes, which sparked the interest of library visitors who wanted to learn how to sew themselves.
Busier than ever with new duties, librarians still perform more traditional tasks such as research and collection development. That's one of the reasons Draper chose the career.
"For me, growing up the way I did, a military brat, we moved around a lot. The first thing that we did when we got into a new town is, my mom would take us to get our library cards," Draper recalls. She says the library was a comforting presence to her during the constant change. "The library connected you to the community. You got to meet the librarian. You could find your favorite author on the shelf within seconds, so you're sort of going home. Even though home changed a lot, the library was always 'home.' "
Draper hopes everyone who steps into the Richmond Public Library feels the same way about being here.
"Everybody, regardless of how they're dressed or where they're from, they're welcome," she says. "I always like to think, if you don't belong anywhere, you belong in the library. For somebody who doesn't know what the library has, what the library has is nothing but surprises."

VICE ADMIRAL MANOHAR AWATI (RETD) / 1927-2018
Vice Admiral Manohar Awati (Photo: Shyam G Menon)
Sailing in India lost one of its strongest supporters with the demise of Vice Admiral Manohar Awati (Retd) on November 4, 2018. He was 91. Sagar Parikrama, the Indian Navy's project to execute solo circumnavigation of the planet in a sail boat, owes much to him.
Circumnavigation had fascinated Vice Admiral Manohar Awati throughout his career in the navy.
But he had been unable to realize it while in service.
As he told this blog in 2013, it all started in west London soon after World War II. He was in his early twenties, freshly commissioned in the Royal Indian Navy and attending a course at the Royal Naval College. While out on a walk, he bought a book from a person selling books on the footpath near Charing Cross; it was Joshua Slocum's account of his solo circumnavigation in a sail boat, the first such voyage done. It impressed him deeply.
" From 1946 to 1983 I was busy being a good officer,'' he said. In that while he would be awarded the Vir Chakra for leadership and gallantry during operations in the Bay of Bengal (1972 India-Pakistan war), serve as Commandant of the National Defence Academy (NDA) and eventually be Commander-in-Chief, Western Naval Command, sword arm of the Indian Navy. All through his career the idea of circumnavigation in a sail boat survived in his mind. Upon retiring, he persisted with his pet project. It was an uphill task. The project needed funds. The navy wasn't quite enthusiastic; corporate India – he approached them for funds – by and large cold shouldered him.
In 2005-2006, a former cadet of his, Admiral Arun Prakash, became navy chief. He warmed up to the idea of circumnavigation. Vice Admiral Awati proposed a revised budget and added a condition that would distinguish Sagar Parikrama – he wanted the boat being used for circumnavigation to be built in India. The navy allotted funds. From this was born the INSV Mhadei, perhaps the toughest little boat the Indian Navy has known yet. Based on a Dutch design, she was built at Aquarius Shipyard, Goa. In 2009-2010 Sagar Parikrama bore fruit when Captain Dilip Donde (Retd) became the first Indian to do solo circumnavigation in a sail boat. Two years later, over 2012-2013, Commander Abhilash Tomy executed the first solo nonstop circumnavigation by an Indian in a sail boat.
Vice Admiral Awati wasn't done. He had a few more voyages he wished to see happen. Over 2017-2018, the first of these – Indian women completing circumnavigation in a sail boat was realized when six Indian women naval officers sailed around the planet in INSV Tarini, the Mhadei's sister vessel. In August 2018, soon after an article on the circumnavigation by all woman-crew appeared on this blog, Vice Admiral Awati wrote in: At near 92, I still have ambitions. (a) to be around to see the first Indian woman solo circumnavigator, and (b) to see an Indian sailing boat (go) through the Arctic, and finally (c) to witness an Indian sail boat circumnavigate Antarctica. All this and more shouldn't take long to be realized if the momentum of Sagar Parikrama is maintained.
Vice Admiral Awati was among the few readers of this blog who periodically wrote in with feedback and suggestions. He wished to include the public in his enthusiasm for sailing (Sagar Parikrama and the fan following it had is excellent example of this). Compared to 2500 kilometers of Himalaya and considerable fuss around mountaineering, India has 7500 kilometers of coastline and no matching push for sailing, kayaking, canoeing, surfing or any such water-based sport. Vice Admiral Awati felt India was inadequate in its appreciation of the sea and wanted to see the trend corrected. He also knew that if it was to happen in a convincing way, then sailing as activity had to grow. When Maharashtra evolved a policy for outdoor / adventure sports, he was concerned that sailing should be both properly represented and backed by supportive policies. He sought the contact details of those in charge.
This write-up must necessarily end on a personal note.

Journalists are typically awful communicators in the normal sense of the word. Newspaper offices receive so many mails and press releases daily that if you honed your skills in such an environment, you take it for granted that you needn't respond to each personally. When world reduces to information and data, an element of the impersonal creeps in. The first time I met Vice Admiral Awati was at the Indian Navy Watermanship Training Center (INWTC) in Mumbai, when I was doing my first article on Sagar Parikrama. Captain Dilp Donde (Retd) and Commander Abhilash Tomy were also there. We were on the second floor and the lift had been kept on standby for the retired admiral, then in his late eighties, to take. He took the stairs instead and reached the interview table, a bit tired by the effort but happy for it. He spoke to the point and was very articulate; his choice of sentences leaned towards classical harking of bygone era.
Conversation around sailing over, I requested him for a copy of his bio-data, which he agreed to mail across as soon as he got back to Vinchurni in Satara, where he lived. I received the mail – if I recall correctly – the very next day. I was busy writing the article and while I perused the bio-data for material to include in the piece, didn't reply to the mail. Two days later I got a mail from the admiral in which, he pointed out that while he had promptly dispatched his bio-data to me, I had failed to extend him the courtesy of acknowledging it. I learnt something that day. I have since tried my best to reply not only to his mails but most other's as well. He never belittled freelance journalist for not belonging to any big media organization or writing for a blog. He recognized individual character and interest in subject. He appreciated good work and always sent in a line when he noticed instances of it. A naval officer once said this of him to me, " he is the best chief the navy never had.''
Vice Admiral Awati passed away on November 4, 2018. " A giant of a man, one of our tallest heroes and greatest icons. Its truly the end of an era. May his soul rest in peace," Admiral Sunil Lanba, Chief of Naval Staff, said in his statement available on the official Twitter handle of the Indian Navy spokesperson.

LONDON » Britain's army was called in to help put down sandbags and evacuated people from their homes Sunday as stormy weather left the country's northern towns and cities severely flooded.
Storm Desmond's torrential rain and strong winds swept across northwestern England and Scotland over the weekend. In Cumbria, known for its scenic Lake District National Park, officials say rainfall between Friday and Saturday likely exceeded an average month's worth in the area.
The deluge left the Cumbrian city of Carlisle and hundreds of homes submerged. Many rivers burst their banks and in some streets, cars have been left almost entirely underwater. Rescue teams helped ferry those forced to leave their homes in boats.
About 60,000 homes in northern regions were left without power and electricity.
In Kendal, rescue teams are searching for an elderly man who reportedly fell into a swollen river, and in London police say a 90-year-old man died after he was believed to have been blown into the side of a moving bus by a gust of wind.
Further flooding and disruption is expected as forecasters warn of more heavy rain on Monday in Scotland, northwestern England and Wales.

In consideration of the current state of our world, the injustice and oppression of every sort that keeps people chained in darkness and unable to come to the light of God's truth, we are going to be fasting together on August 9, 2011 to ask for God's help. We will pray that God will shed his light on those who are stumbling, doubting, or fearful that they may gain discernment, courage, and wisdom to walk that narrow path leading to eternal life. We will ask that God will remove any willful blindness and enable us to walk a straight path in an increasingly corrupt society.
National leaders worldwide are facing monumental challenges and are having to make decisions now that will impact our lives for decades to come. We will pray for God's mercy on us all, so that we may continue to have the freedoms we now enjoy: freedom to preach the truth without reservation, to travel, to associate with other believers, to worship God as we are commanded in scripture, and freedom of conscience.

The same can be said for any specific behavior that you want to encourage through a revised sales force compensation plan. It won't do you much good to emphasis key account penetration, key product line sales, etc., unless you take the time to show them how to do what you want them to do.
Most components of sales structure are vestiges of days gone by. They were created, typically, in response to a crisis some time ago, and became codified. Most companies aren't even aware of many elements of their structure, because they have been so imbedded into the routines of the company that they don't even notice them anymore.
It's not unusual to find elements of the sale structure that present obstacles to the attainment of the compensation behaviors. Not only are they not supportive, they stand in the way.
From a salesperson's perspective, you hot it right on the head. Compensation packages, while vitally important, are only part of the picture. Most salespeople (at least those that are truly "in the profession" actually crave structure, guidance, and training, but are too "vain" to admit it. Present these things as "personally positive and personally profitable" adjustments for simplifying the salesperson's daily activities and increasing results. It becomes a "win-win-win" )for employer, employee, and the customer)!
Thanks for your insights, Brian. I agree.

Anthropology Quarterly
Wendy Belcher
For those interesting in publishing articles that engage with the disciplinary debates and methodological commitments of anthropology, ethnography, and cultural analysis.
Anthropology Quarterly is a journal based out of George Washington University that focuses on data driven research in the discipline of anthropology. Articles are ethnographically grounded and seek to contribute to debates both in the field of anthropology, but also in the larger world.
The journal invites scholarship that engages with public debates that can be illuminated through ethnographic scholarship and the interpretive tools of anthropology, thus providing insights into social issues normally left out of public conversations. In this sense the journal strikes a balance between relevance and being at the critical cutting edge of the discipline, with a review of the last five years suggesting relevance is more preferred. That said, to the extent social problems drive much of the journal's featured scholarship, it has managed to incorporate authors who provide unique views to those issues. For instance, materiality has been taken up by the journal in a few special issues to talk about energy politics and infrastructure, while the question of political Islam has also been approached in new and interesting ways.
As a matter of content, the journal features articles that touch on politics, inequality, globalization, transnationalism in its various forms, and the way humans interact with their environment and an increasingly precarious ecological future. (BH)

'MK Veterans' up for police promotion were still in nappies during apartheid
The promotion of hundreds of former MK and Azanian People's Liberation Army (Apla) soldiers to senior ranks within the police' allegedly because of the military experience they gained fighting apartheid forces' is being questioned.
Documents in the possession of the trade union Solidarity show that many of the more than 600 officers said to be fighting the apartheid state at the time were in fact either still in nappies or playing on primary school fields.
Solidarity revealed at a press conference in Pretoria on Wednesday how many of the former non-statutory forces (NSF) members' whose promotions began this month' were in fact children when they claimed to be fighting apartheid forces.
The union placed the SAPS on legal terms this week' demanding that the promotions be halted.
Documents in the union's possession include information on the ages of those who have been promoted. They reveal how some of those being promoted were born in the 1980s.
The police' who were emailed questions about being placed on terms and about details of the promotions' declined to comment.
Solidarity said they had discovered that the NSF project had been used to promote police members to officer positions when they did not qualify as NSF members.
Solidarity's chief executive office Dirk Hermann said it was getting clearer by the day that the NSF project was being used to skip ranks in the promotion of policemen and women to senior positions.
"They are being classified as war veterans and in some cases promoted by five ranks to senior officer positions'" said Hermann.
He said information that had come to the union's attention on the ages of the personnel raised questions as to how they were classified as former NSF members to become entitled to the benefits thereof' when they should have been disqualified due to their ages.
Hermann said there were thousands of other police members' including the union's own members' who were of the same age group as those promoted but had "missed the promotion bus" and had to spend years in the ranks battling to be promoted' without any success.
He said an urgent inquiry into the promotions was needed after the police had on Tuesday failed to meet a deadline from the union to stop the promotions' which began on November 1.
"It is of national interest that the NSF project be revised. This is nothing more than a politically motivated process which disadvantages the career paths of ordinary members who cannot apply for these positions'" said Hermann.

Chytridium lagenaria (Arg 066) is classified in the family Chytridiaceae within the Chytridiales and Chytridiomycota. It is collected from freshwater habitats associated with green filamentous algae, especially those which are moribund, and as a result, is considered a saprotroph and possibly a weak parasite. Accordingly the chytrid can grow as a saprotroph on pollen and on nutrient agar. The thallus consists of a spherical to subspherical sporangium and stout, richly branched rhizoids, which arise from a prominent spherical to fusiform apophysis. Zoospores emerge from a single operculate sporangial opening, remaining motionless for a few minutes as a mass before swimming away. Molecular phylogenetic studies reveal this chytrid is monophyletic with the type species of the genus, Chytridium olla, as part of a larger clade with Phlyctochytrium planicorne comprised of species with a Group II-type zoospore ultrastructure (Vélez et al. 2011). Developmentally this chytrid is unusual in that the apophysis enlarges prior to the expansion of the encysted zoospore into a sporangium, making this strain of interest to understand the regulation of genes involved in early stages of thallus development.

"I was lucky enough about four years ago to meet Elena. I went to my first appointment looking for a relaxing massage, to ease my tight muscles. By the end of my hour massage and about an hour after of talking I realized Elena was more then just a fantastic massage therapist, She is a woman who has a very special heart, she is genuine and extremely compassionate. Over the years Elena not only continues to give amazing and relaxing massages but she always is providing an environment that is inviting, warm, and extremely comfortable."
"I can't thank you enough Elena for that amazing massage. From the Hot stones, oils, natural scrubs, all the way to the rose infused tea at the end, I felt so pampered. My body feels amazing, my skin is glowing and my heart is filled with your warm, loving energy. xoxo til next month."
