WP Rocket will rewrite all URLs for your assets (static files) that are added using WordPress functions, for example post thumbnails, stylesheets and the like.
Heads up! In case you see that an image is not being served from your CDN, it might be because your theme, or a plugin does not use a WordPress function to retrieve said image. In that case you can use a PHP function to add the image to your CDN.
A "push" CDN (or "push zone") does not import any files from your website by itself; instead your website must send ("push") all required files to the CDN.
WP Rocket does not handle the push process itself. If you use a "push" CDN, you will need an extra plugin to send your assets.
If your site is hosted at WP Engine and you have enabled the CDN option there, you still have to enable the CDN option in WP Rocket, and enter your CDN URL so the plugin can detect it and function correctly.
If you're not sure what your CDN URL is, you can find it in the CDN section of your WP Engine User Portal.
You have to contact your CDN provider to enable HTTPS for your account.

This page is dedicated to one of the problems which are hindering the development of the Russian - Japanese relations. Since the end of the war on the Pacific has passed 58 years. General public is aware of the territorial despute over four of the Southern Kuril islands , but we want to avoid this issue because it is strictly in the hands of the powers-that-be to solve the problem. We would like to restore historical truth and to tell the world about the destiny of the Japanese soldiers who found themselves in the Soviet captivity. With accordance to the article 9 of the Potsdam declaration, after the capitulation of the Japanese army the Japanese military personnel had to be returned home, however they were forcefully brought into concentration camps. This problem is well known in Japan, however the situation is different in Russia. Nevertheless, the Japanese soldiers worked in various parts of the country for many years participating in the rebuilding of the economy, destroyed by the war. Many of them have not returned back home. They have been laid to rest in the unknown graves which are now difficult to find. Among few non-profit organizations focused on improving Russian - Japanese relations there is the Association on cooperation with former Japanese interned, "Vzaimoponimanie" (mutual understanding).
The primary goal of this organization is resolving the humanitarian problem concerning burial places of the Japanese soldiers in Russia. Some people may ask why should we care about the remains of the Japanese soldiers while thousands of unknown Soviet worriors are burried in common graves which are often vandalized by criminals? We can tell one historical fact. After bloody battle for Port Arthur during the Russo-Japanese war general Nogi invited general Stessel and praised bravery of the defenders. Many russian prisoners of war were taken to various cities on the Shikoku island. Local population was friendly with them. After signing the peace treaty they were released and sent back home. The Russian soldiers who died in Japan have been burried with honour. Even today Russian cemeteries are kept in order. There is no litter, fresh flowers are always laid on the graves. The Japanese have achieved a lot owing to their respect to their history, traditions, ancestors. There is a lot we can learn from them. Maybe the example of how the Japanese highly respect their and other's ancestors will help us value our own history.

You are looking at Mount Blanc. Also known as La Dame blanche or Il Bianco. At 4810 meters, It is the highest peak in the Alps, and also the highest peak in Europe. The view you see here is what I got to look at during lunch one day. I took this picture from the terrace we had lunch on in the slopes in Courmayeur, which was already at 2000 meters. Needless to say this is a HUGE mountain that you can see from pretty much everywhere. This picture is a composite of 7 images I took on my phone, it was just too much to capture in one shot. We took our time for lunch that day, too much serenity to rush anything. Click here for a full res version.
Taken on my phone. Photomerged. Au revior until next week.

20 Fun Facts about American Football
By MoralStories26.com On 20/08/2020 In Facts Tagged Facts about Sports, Interesting Facts Leave a comment
American football started as a mixture of Soccer and Rugby and was first played in 1869. It wasn't until the 1800's that it was shaped into the game we know today, with the help of Walter Camp also known as the "Father of Football."
The First Football Game Was Played in 1869 Between Rutgers and Princeton.
The American Professional Football Association wasn't created until 1920 and a couple years later changed its name to the National Football League (NFL).
The NFL is tasked with ensuring that the rules of the game are being followed. They also organize the Super Bowl. The NFL currently organizes 256 games over 17 weeks.
The National Football League is composed of 32 teams. Each conference has one champion each year. Those two championship teams then play each other in the Super Bowl.
The NFL did not decide to move the Goal posts to the back of the end zone until 1974.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have won six Super Bowl Championships. They have played in eight Super Bowls and are one of three teams to have made it to the Super Bowl that many times.
The Denver Broncos played in Seven different Super Bowls. Unfortunately, they lost five of those championship games, giving them the unenviable title of the team with the most Super Bowl losses.
Sarah Thomas will become the first full-time female official in NFL history when the 2015-2016 football season gets underway.
Peyton Manning has been named the Associated Press's Most Valuable Player in the NFL five times. He was awarded this honor in 2003, 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2013.
Jerry Rice holds the record for the most touchdowns in the NFL. The wide receiver amassed 208 touchdowns from 1985 to 2004.
While Football players have multi-million dollar contracts, the cheerleaders performing on the sidelines are paid very little in comparison. Cheerleaders earn an average of $125 a game.
Wilson, a Sports equipment company, has an exclusive contract to provide the footballs for NFL games. Wilson currently produce an astonishing 4,000 footballs every day.
There have been 224 sets of fathers and sons and 348 sets of brothers who have played in the NFL.
Between the years 1921-1923, there was a team named the Canton Bulldogs that went 25 straight games without a defeat (22 wins, 3 ties) and won two NFL championships (1922,1923).
The Huddle was first used in the 1890s by quarterback Paul Hubbard, who was deaf. Hubbard was concerned the other team could interpret his hand signals, so he brought his teammates into a round formation to call plays.
The First professional football player was William "Pudge" Heffelfinger. He was paid $500 to play in a game in 1892.
The First televised Professional football game took place in 1939.
The Longest field goal made in pro football history was 64 yards. The Longest attempted field goal in pro football history was 76 yards. It missed.
Footballs are actually made out of cowhide, even though they are commonly referred to as a "Pigskin". The actual shape of a football is a Prolate spheroid.
It takes 3,000 cows to supply the NFL with enough leather for a year's supply of footballs.

Psoriasis is more than skin deep, says NICE
Ben Adams
NICE is issuing new guidelines aimed at getting family doctors to think about how psoriasis might be affecting the daily lives of their patients.
In its first clinical guideline on the assessment and management of the condition, NICE advises GPs and other healthcare professionals to assess the impact that psoriasis has on the physical, psychological and social wellbeing of their patients.
They should do this when they first see their patients, before they refer them to specialists, and when they monitor how they are responding to treatments, according to the Institute.
Psoriasis is a skin condition characterised by red, flaky, crusty patches of skin covered with silvery scales. It is believed to affect up to 2.2% of the UK population - around 1.3 million people - with most cases seen in young people and adults under the age of 35.
The disease can contribute to low self-esteem, anxiety, embarrassment and depression, much like other chronic conditions – but NICE says this may be overlooked by healthcare professionals. For example, over a third of people who have psoriasis report clinically significant anxiety and depression.
The condition can also affect a person's participation in social and physical activities, employment and education – it is for these reasons that NICE is looking to raise greater awareness of these elements of the disease to doctors.
Also in its new clinical guideline, NICE advises that everyone with psoriasis should be assessed for psoriatic arthritis on an annual basis, particularly during the first ten years as this is when the condition is most likely to develop.
Around one in seven people who have psoriasis will develop psoriatic arthritis, a progressive condition, which can cause pain, stiffness and swelling in and around the joints. Early diagnosis is important and so annual assessments will allow those with actual or suspected psoriatic arthritis to be referred to specialists sooner.
Dr Catherine Smith, a consultant dermatologist who chaired the development of the NICE guideline, said: "Psoriasis is much more than a skin irritation. The condition can have profound functional, psychological and social effects on a person's life. It is vital that GPs and other healthcare professionals recognise these possible consequences when they first see their patients, and that they routinely assess the impact that the disease is having on their daily lives."
NICE already recommends a number of drugs for the condition, including Pfizer's Enbrel (etanercept), Abbott's Humira (adalimumab) and Janssen's Remicade (infliximab).
Psoriasis care 'failing patients'
Meanwhile a new report: 'Recognising the life impact of psoriasis' released by Paul Beresford MP, chair of the All Parliamentary Group on Skin, has unveiled an urgent need for multi-disciplinary care for people suffering with psoriasis.
The report comes as part of a new collaboration between the Psoriasis Association and the Mental Health Foundation as part of the 'See Psoriasis: Look Deeper' campaign, which is partly funded by Abbott.
Merck & Co, PatientsLikeMe team up to improve psoriasis outcomes
Humira drives Abbott growth again, 550 jobs cut

Making PEPFAR, mourning Andrew Hunter, the cost of hepatitis treatment, assessing the damage of Uganda's antigay law . . . We're catching up and looking back
By Antigone Barton on January 2, 2014 .
Making PEPFAR – By rolling out large scale HIV treatment and prevention programs in countries that lacked resources to take on the global epidemic on their own, PEPFAR reversed a trend of sinking life expectancies "and likely saved some countries — even an entire continent — from economic ruin," Harold Varmus writes in this essay, published Dec. 1 on Science and Diplomacy. And yet, he notes, few people, even friends of his who he thinks are knowledgeable about world affairs "know what the term PEPFAR represents . . . let alone understand how successful the program has been and how it was conceived and carried out." Even if you don't have to have the term PEPFAR broken down for you, this look at how the historic response that became the President's Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief is interesting, with unexpected points the exact recollection of which may be debatable, but which explain the broad support those who do know what PEPFAR stands for continues to provide.
Mourning the death of Andrew Hunter – While the Global Network of Sex Work Projects grieves the loss of founding member and President Andrew Hunter, the organization is collecting tributes and thoughts on his life and work for a memorial page, and asking they be sent to secretariat@nswp.org. In the meantime, UNAIDS has gratitude for his pioneering advocacy, and sadness at his loss, as has the Global Fund, Ruth Messinger of American Jewish World Services, and Alvaro Bermejo of the AIDS Alliance.
Life-saving hepatitis C drug approved, but cost is high – If a treatment for hepatitis C can achieve a 90 percent cure rate, but has a price tag that puts it out of the reach for the vast majority of people who will need it, how does the math work out? This Irin article looks at the push to make newly approved sofosbuvir accessible to patients in resource limited countries where HIV and hepatitis both take great tolls as well as in the middle-income countries that are home to 75 percent of the world's poor.
New law a setback for Uganda's HIV response – While whether Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Bill becomes law rests in the hands of President Yoweri Museveni, HIV treatment advocacy groups are weighing in on the harm it would do to the nation's already faltering HIV response. At the same time, the country's "state minister for ethics and integrity" is clarifying his priorities, with a statement "on the threats from donors and development to withdraw their financial assistance over this bill," to which he says, "we don't care and are not bothered at all. We prefer to lose that money than our culture and people." That view of the choices at hand, more than a decade into the large scale global response to HIV that linked health and human rights would seem to indicate that what we have here has been, at the very least, a failure to communicate.
This entry was posted in What we're reading and tagged anti-homosexuality bill, global fund, President Yoweri Museveni, Ruth Messinger, Uganda, Andrew Hunter, NSWP, Asia Pacific Network of Sex Workers, American Jewish World Services, Global Network of Sex Work Projects, Harold Varmus, Science and Diplomacy on January 2, 2014 .

Q: File downloading in php after displaying some text Hi I need to create file downloading. the fill up form for download and form validation and dB inserting all are in the same page. if the form is submitted then file downloading needs to be automatically triggered with save as window. I wrote the code as:
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$u=$_POST['uname'];
/*similarly getting all posted data*/
echo '
'.JText::_( 'Thank you for submitting your details...' ).'';
 $db =& JFactory::getDBO();
  $query = "/*db inserting query*/";
  $db->setQuery( $query );
  $db->query();

  $filee=  basename($path); /*$path contains value form $_POST*/
   $full='http://localhost/joomla/images/uploads/'.$filee;

  ?>

  If the download  does not start automatically in a few seconds, <a href="<?php     echo JURI::base(); ?>/images/myfile/<?php echo $filee;?>" target="_blank"> Click this link

 <?php

   header('Content-Description:File Transfer');
   header("Content-type:application/pdf");
   header("Content-type:application/zip");
   header("Content-type:image/jpeg");
   header("Content-type:image/png");
   header("Content-type:application/msword");
   header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".$filee."");
   header("Cache-control: private");
   readfile($full);

   }
 else{ code for printing fill up form}

I need to print the "thanks for submitting.."..etc message before downloading.but now when I submit the fill up form download starts with out displaying the above text. what should I do for making download after waiting some time?

A: You can use sleep() in php to delay the execution.So try like this
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$u=$_POST['uname'];
echo '
'.JText::_( 'Thank you for submitting your details...' ).'';
 $db =& JFactory::getDBO();
  $query = "/*db inserting query*/";
  $db->setQuery( $query );
  $db->query();
  $filee=  basename($path); /*$path contains value form $_POST*/
  $full='http://localhost/joomla/images/uploads/'.$filee;

  ?>

  If the download  does not start automatically in a few seconds, <a href="<?php     echo JURI::base(); ?>/images/myfile/<?php echo $filee;?>" target="_blank"> Click this link

 <?php

   sleep(10);//Will delay for 10 seconds

   header('Content-Description:File Transfer');
   header("Content-type:application/pdf");
   header("Content-type:application/zip");
   header("Content-type:image/jpeg");
   header("Content-type:image/png");

Combining state-of-the-art technology with expert movement analysis to manage our fantastic bike fitting experience.
All bodies are different, and your riding position should be tailored to suit your goals - from time trials and triathlons, to sportives and commuting.
No matter your level of riding, comfort is crucial for sustaining time spent on the bike.
The correct position keeps your body aligned on the bike, helping to prevent injuries.
An optimal position not only increases comfort—it maximizes both power and endurance.
Achieving an optimal fit on your bike will maximise comfort, control and efficiency - not to mention enjoyment in the saddle.
Traditional tools of the trade, such as tape measure and plumb bobs, do have their uses. But they aren't capable of capturing dynamic measurements whilst the rider is pedaling. That's why we use the state-of-the-art Retül bike fit system.
Infra-red LEDs are placed in specific locations on the rider's body, and a 3D scanner is used to measure each of these LEDs 18 times a second. This allows us to collect rapid streams of information about a rider's position and movement whilst riding under load.
The Retül software saves the data it records for every rider and their bicycle. At the end of your Retül session you will receive a report of your final fit data, including body measurements and angles, as well as a bike set-up.
How do I book a bike fit?
Fill in our contact form, tell us about yourself, and that's it!
We will contact you to discuss what to bring to your session - bike, cycling clothing, shoes and anything else applicable. On average, bike fits take between 90 to 120 minutes.
I agree to Urban Endurance using my personal data to keep me informed about marketing offers and initiatives.
Thank you! We will be in touch (usually within 24 hours).

Hello, friend! Welcome to my little spot on the web. Here, you will find practical information about living a life touched by Autism. You will get to learn from my mistakes as well as my successes. The hope is that you will encounter fewer mistakes as a result.
When Autism entered my life I was a successful attorney planning to be a career Army officer. I was a happily married mother of three with the world at my feet. Then we got our diagnosis in 2010, and overnight our whole world changed. For the next four years my understanding of who I was and what my life was about dimmed as all of my hopes and most of my dreams were abandoned. I felt like we would have nothing but unmet expectations.
A tsunami swept through each and every corner of our life the day my son was diagnosed with Autism. It carried away all things familiar. What was left behind in its wake was a foreign landscape. We didn't recognize our lives anymore or know how to navigate the new life we found ourselves living. In small ways we have reclaimed a semblance of our past life. Mostly we have changed. We have learned that what we face is a much bigger problem than is outwardly apparent. Managing an Autistic household is a daily challenge. Most days the medical and educational complications associated with the diagnosis appear to be insurmountable hurdles of grave importance, because your children's future hangs in the balance.
Luckily, thankfully, blessedly, the difficulties we encounter are not the end of the story. They are just the beginning. Today I am a stay-at-home mom with a Masters in Special Education, a Prius V, and chickens on my 1.5 acre soon-to-be mini-farm. We haven't "arrived" yet, but we are well on our way. I can't, at present, proclaim Autism is a blessing, but I can say the life we are living in response to Autism has blessed us.
That is the journey I am on and what I want to share with you as one example of what is possible. We haven't "arrived" yet, but we are well on our way and each day I do see that we are truly blessed to be living this journey together in our "little house" on the spectrum.

When Jesus came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen, "Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"
Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples."

Q: optimal down payment estimation in credit scoring Knowing I can estimate the risk of default, via logistic regression, of a consumer on a small loan...
what would be the best way to estimate the optimal down-payment amount to ask for in order to reduce that risk ?

A: Down payment might not directly reduce risk but it might reduce risk of loss when customer is in default.
In international risk management framework for the banks, usually called Basel setting, things are governed by the following eq.
Expected loss= Prob of default (PD) * Loss given default (LGD) * Exposure at default (EAD)
where PD is your risk estimate for individual. It is a probability that one defaults.
It might be that LGD is affected by the down payment.
If PD is affected, then it might be a result via some sort of selection mechanism.
I have seen some results where LGD is a function of PD and collateral (C) and LGD is affected by collateral in following way:
LGD=1-RR(C,PD)
where RR is recovery rate.

What's Right With Schools: Walking through the halls of Guilford High School in the shoes of an incoming student
by: Mackenzie Maynard
GUILFORD, Conn. (WTNH) — This year's freshman class is dealing with quite a different first year of high school amid the COVID-19 pandemic. News 8 walked through the halls of Guilford High School Tuesday in the shoes of new students coming in this fall.
Think back to freshman year of high school: you were excited, you were going to a new school with a whole new group of people.
For the newly-appointed principal at Guilford High School, a big focus has been on how to properly welcome in this year's freshman class.
"I don't think any of us saw this coming," said Principal Julia Chaffe. "We had to completely reimagine it."
The class of 2024 had an orientation unlike years past.

"As an orientation, it's normally parents and kids just walking around, and that's from what I remember," one new student told News 8. "It was weird to just sort of be alone walking around with a few other kids. So it was a weird way to see a new school, definitely."
The school created small group tours, each lasting about 40 minutes scheduled over the course of two weeks.
While parents weren't able to come along for the tours, everyone was able to watch orientation virtually.
"They sent us a great video and so forth, but I think there's some good responsibility she's going to learn out of this," the new student's dad said of his daughter.
A taste of independence that still feels so weird to so many.
"I think the schools are doing their best. I think we all as a community are trying to do our best to keep everyone safe," dad said.

Have African leaders empowered girls and women enough?
The African stars who sang the Strong girl anthem.
Poverty is not only an African phenomonen but it touches on all corners of the earth. But there are countries that bear the brunt more than others.
'The one Campaign' is urging world leaders this years to help those most affected by poverty around the world.
The campaign has been trending on social media under the #WithStrongGirls .
We take an African angle to it asking as Africa prepares to celebrate the Africa Day on 25th of May an annual commemoration of the 1963 founding of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), presently recognized as the Africa Union (AU), what do women and girls of Africa have to celebrate about? Have African leaders empowered women and girls enough?
The African Union, comprised of 53 member states, has brought together the continent of Africa to collectively address the challenges it has faced, such as armed conflict, climate change, and poverty. Have they done their work?
-For the girl denied an education or forced into marriage.
-For the mother who risks death when she gives life.
-For the farmer prevented from owning the land she works on.
All over the world, girls and women are showing their strength and fighting back. They are achieving extraordinary things, despite the barriers they face. But your voice can help turn personal victories into global ones.
Have you noticed a difference in your community? Are women and girls standing up for themselves in your community ? Have they achieved a lot or nothing yet?
The campaign has joined forces with 9 of Africa's most talented artists to create a new anthem that celebrates the power of girls and women everywhere to make the call for girls and women empowerment. What is your say?

Question 1. An eye-opening element of your paper is the discussion on the procedural approach to logics in which you suggest that scholars should develop methodologies that allow them to explain what "cannot be framed". In the case of the Jesuits what cannot be framed is God, or more generally social order. What would the "unframed" be in the modern corporation and who are the agents enacting the practices of the progressively updating logic?
Many things are unframed in the modern and corporate world; a 'value' to begin with. It is increasingly clear that we live in dissonant orders of worth (I refer to the work of David Stark, Boltanki and Thévenot and some work I am doing with Roger Friedland) and a 'value' cannot be reduced to shareholder's values anymore. Enlarging the realms of the measurable (for example, from the 'economic' to the 'environmental' and the 'social') is not the solution in my view. Interrogating what cannot be framed, values in this case, and mediate amongst views, which are impossible to align anyhow, is a possible way forward to regain sanity in the financial word. Other 'unframable' categories are uncertainty, risk, volatility, complexity; but those are more immediate and obvious, although the approach to those tends to presuppose that these categories can be framed and do not overflow (as Michel Callon would say). I am currently doing some work on managing major programs (such as mega infrastructure projects). They are interesting sites to explore this impossibility of framing: the risks, the unknowns are everywhere and cannot be reduced.
You also ask about the agents of the updating logics. They are many as well. Technology, if we give agency to material objects, as Bruno Latour and Wanda Orlikowski would do, is surely one of these agents. As much as a medieval book, technologies of representation are increasingly affecting the way in which we imagine the future, our identities and rituals of interaction and social order. Nothing new here, but what is new is to think of technologies as procedures themselves which create spaces of engagement, exploration and mediation which constitute the fabric of institutional logics change.
Question 2. Your work provides alternative lenses to look at the relationship between rationality and techniques of representation, in the specific case of accounting. In the paper you suggest that today, accounting requires less reflection and inventio, having become a taken-for-granted institution. If you were to study rationality through contemporary accounting what would you expect to observe?
If I were to observe rationality through the narrow lenses of what accounting has become (at least in some mainstream departments of accounting of a university completely detached from the world of practice), I would see very little. Contemporary accounting glasses promise transparency but their lenses are opaque. The result is that a search for transparency makes us blind to what being 'rational' may mean in different spatial-temporal contexts. There is lot to be done in order to transform these lenses in prisms that are able to show multifaceted worlds. And, interestingly enough, in organization studies, very little attention is given to systems of representation, not to mention to accounting, although accounting is one of the most pervasive technology of calculation of the modern corporate world.
Question 3. Many studies test their theories on contemporary empirical contexts, while few do so analyzing specific contexts from the past. How did you choose this empirical context and how would you generalize your study in different contexts? What would you advice to students willing to follow your example and analyze historical data?
An articulated question that I'll try to answer in sequence. How did I choose? It happened by chance, of course! Often one becomes interested in research sites and topics because of serendipitous encounters. My case was not different. It dates back to my PhD (a long time ago) in Palermo, my hometown in Italy. My supervisor, who loves history, asked me to look at the accounting books kept at the State Archive of Palermo. I naively thought this was going to be one of the most boring things on earth. It was instead the beginning of a very exciting journey of discovering, which is still ongoing. The paper in ASQ is just the last stop of this journey.
You ask me about generalization. I am not a historian (by no means I can claim I am) and therefore my primary interest in the evidence is theoretical not empirical. So I aim try to generalize in every work I do (also because being Italian we love abstraction and we tend to think, wrongly, that the empirical world cannot surprise us). How can we generalize from particular and unfamiliar cases? By linking them to general and familiar theoretical debates to de-familiarize us from them. This is, I think, what the paper does in relation to institutional logics. I think it always more difficult to look at the normal in a different way than to look at what differs from the norm. Accounting is a very 'normal' (and normalized) practice. It becomes interesting only if we look at it in a different way. History, in that sense, helps, as it is a form of ethnography that leads us not only to a different space (the Jesuit Order in my case) but also a different time.
Now the advice. Not sure I am the right person to give advice on whether historical work is worth exploring. I am too biased towards a yes! But think of how relatively 'easy' access is when doing historical works: the sources are there waiting to be discovered. They do not escape! But here is also where the easy part ends. Historical work, as much and possibly more than field studies, requires a long process of familiarization with these sources, especially if we go back a long time (I still remember the difficulties I had in understanding handwriting, abbreviations, notations, old Sicilian texts, archaic forms of accounting records, just to name but a few of these difficulties). The issue is also that the sources always change meaning. For me this happened often when I went back to them in the various iterations of the research process. Every time I knew something more about religious, cultural and economic contexts and practices and this made me see in the apparently 'out there' archival sources something new. This is possibly the most fascinating aspect I recall from the research, the moment of establishing a connection, for example, between ratio, rationality, accounting and late medieval practices of rhetoric and art of memory is something that has changed not only the way in which I looked at those sources but also how I now conceive of accounting as a contemporary practice. The rewards are huge if one is prepared to link, connect and explore primary and secondary sources in ways that are novel. Another aspect of going to the archive that is worth mentioning? One of the most relaxing things I have done in my life! Archives are interesting and relaxing spaces.
Question 4. The procedural nature of the Jesuits' logics suggests a drastically different approach to institutional logics. Nevertheless Jesuits are a closed community that diligently and profoundly applies the procedures demanded within the college. In contemporary firms, community spirit and self-reflection are generally considered as less fundamental. How do you think that this contemporary lack of reflection relates to scholars' understanding of institutional logics? More specifically, do you think that the common lack of reflection in the typical contemporary organization has brought scholars to observe the more substantialist rather than the procedural side of logics?
Are you sure the Jesuits were closed and the contemporary lack a community spirit (I would agree on the lack of reflection)? Let me respond with an anecdote. Once, when I was at Christ Church at Oxford, I organized a series of meetings on religion, institutions and practices. Participants disagreed on many things but we all agreed that nowadays there is more religion in business schools than in the Church and more business in the Church than in business schools! This is also what Michel Antebi suggests with his ethnography of Harvard Business School: the not said points towards the mystery of manufacturing morals and the belief in to a common spirit at Harvard.
This point also relates to the other things you ask. Some of the current literature on institutional logics takes such logics almost for granted: logics are not mysterious anymore. One can observe them in hospitals, markets, in the profession. The risk is to make them less interesting and powerful as heuristic devices. And once one has lost the mystery, what is left is only the material. Imagination, vision, feelings, emotions, and symbols are gone. This is possibly also why capitalism is so material: if one believes that everything can be reduced to a number, to a transaction, to money then the material is the only think one can think of. This applies to researchers as well; especially those who seek to operationalize statistically variables that cannot be reduced to a statistical issue. In Hebrew, the word 'God' cannot even be pronounced, otherwise mystery is lost. Uttering 'God' would be the "end of the world" (to quote Alessandro Baricco or to refer to Giorgio Agamben's The Kingdom and the Glory).
Question 5. The search for what cannot be categorically framed, "the unsaid", is fundamental for scholars wishing to understand the dynamics involving institutional logics. Yet, for the logic update to occur a certain disposition is crucial. What do you think is the role of disposition of the agents both in your paper and more broadly in the debate on institutional logics?
This is a difficult question to answer, as my reply could smell of 'ontological gerrymandering'. The first reaction would be: Of course dispositions matters! But would not that be a substantive answer? A possible way out is that if we interpret a disposition as a way of looking at the world (and thus in procedural terms) there is hope for not falling back into the trap of a positivist view of this disposition. In other words, I could be disposed towards the 'other' and what differs or not. The latter is dangerous and would make research a technical exercise of finding what we already know in a supposedly out there world; the former makes of research a journey of exploration into unchartered territory. So my question to you and the readers is: are you technicians or explorers? Both are useful but the latter is much more fun!

What happens on each night of Hanukkah?
Two blessings are chanted or recited every night of Hanukkah. The first is a blessing over the candles themselves. The second blessing expresses thanks for the miracle of deliverance. A third blessing—the Shehecheyanu prayer, marking all joyous occasions in Jewish life—is chanted or recited only on the first night.
What is a menorah, or a hanukkiyah?
A menorah is a candelabra, and can be used for Hanukkah if it has nine stems. Another word for a Hanukkah menorah is hanukkiyah. A hanukkiyah has one stem for each of the eight days of Hanukkah, and one for the shamash, or "the helper candle" that is used to light the other candles. Candles are added each night from right to left and they are lit from left to right.
What is a dreidel?
The word dreidel derives from a German word meaning "spinning top," and is the toy used in a Hanukkah game adapted from an old German gambling game. Hanukkah was one of the few times of the year when rabbis permitted games of chance. The four sides of the top bear four Hebrew letters: nun, gimmel, hey, and shin. Players begin by putting into a central pot or "kitty" a certain number of coins, chocolate money known as gelt, nuts, buttons or other small objects.
What is a latke?
A latke is a potato pancake fried in oil, and is a traditional food eaten to celebrate the miracle of the oil in the story of Hanukkah. Foods cooked in oil serve as a symbol of the legend of the jar of oil that lasted for eight days.
What is gelt?
Gelt is chocolate coins given to Jewish children on the festival of Hanukkah. They are usually wrapped in gold foil, and their history can be traced back to the decision of the Hasmoneans to mint their own nation's coins after their military victory over the Greek Syrians. Gelt is often used to gamble with in the game of dreidel.
What are sufganiyot?
Sufganiyot are donuts, usually jelly-filled, that commemorate the miracle associated with the oil that burned for eight days in the Hanukkah story. Foods cooked in oil are traditionally eaten during Hanukkah.

GONEVILLE by NICK BOLLINGER
Graham Reid | Jan 10, 2017 | 4 min read
Lawdy Miss Clawdy, by Johnny Devlin
Although they are never going to challenge the unassailable supremacy of cookbooks and the lives of people who play sport for money, there has been a discernible increase in the number of books about New Zealand music in the past few years.
It's almost as if publishers have belatedly realised what most others know: that popular music has great stories, odd characters and an important place in our social and cultural life.
It might be too that as a few have trickled through it has given other writers to confidence to stake out some territory for themselves or to tell their, or other people's, stories.
Wellington writer, critic, record producer and radio host Nick Bollinger is well ahead of the pack. This is his third book after How to Listen to Pop Music and 100 Essential New Zealand Albums.
But where the former was an extended essay and the latter a listing-cum-reference book, Goneville is billed as a memoir . . . even though in his preface he says he hadn't set out to write a memoir "although the story starts in the memory".
He also says it isn't a history "although I uncover some history in the telling" and nor is it "musicology".
What is it then?
Well, it's a damn fine read for a kick-off.
But it also contains elements of all of those facets, and a considerable dollop of New Zealand social and cultural history as well.
If at times the gears grind a little as he changes between these styles, Bollinger weaves them together to create a broad but detailed picture of his topic. By the end you are informed as much as entertained.
The focus here is firmly on the Seventies and most often on his early life in Wellington and on the road as bass player in Rough Justice, fronted by the larger-than-life, dope-smoking soulman Rick Bryant who occupies centre-stage on every page where he appears.
Bollinger writes an affection but clear-eyed profile of a man who did things his own way – often at considerable personal cost – and refused to be bowed by the vicissitudes he sometimes endured (but just as often seems to have enjoyed).
Goneville is Bollinger's story but it is also that of a decade in New Zealand where the old codes were being challenged and sometimes broken. Every generation feels it made the changes and Bollinger and his fellow travellers were no exception.
Certainly there was a divide in male society between the emerging long-hair generation and the short back'n'sides mainstream blokes, and although that had started a few years before the Seventies it certainly picked up momentum as the decade rolled on.
Bollinger was part of that generation, and quite a precocious one at that. He is just a musically curious 12 year old from an interesting if different family when the decade opens.
Yet in the subsequent 10 years he crammed in various bouts of employment and drifting a little, then was part of a band which toured the country, often playing to small but appreciative audiences.
There is also genuine pain in places too. Bollinger writes movingly about the sudden death of his father Conrad – a high-profile, intellectual left-wing activist – at just 46 in the middle of the decade: " . . . it was as though a meteorite had crashed into our family. Where Con had stood there now was a crater. We, the survivors, picked ourselves up, slightly stunned, looked at each other, and as we had no visible injuries did our best to carry on."
The writing is at its most insightful and evocative when Bollinger either paints a picture of a place or people (he is very strong on the show-not-tell at these points) and also when pulling in the social context of the times. This is especially valuable when he weaves through the characters of concert organiser/promoter/band manager Graeme Nesbitt and Richard Holden who controlled the entertainment circuit in pubs for Lion Breweries who "was managing an entertainment budget upwards of two million a year, roughly $22 million in today's money".
In their own ways these two characters were the power players for musicians, Nesbitt as student orientation booker and Holden like a centurion at the gate, an iron grip on who could get onto a stage in the pubs.
And Bollinger – although noting some of those who played the brewry circuit – is more interested in the innovative outsiders like the all-acoustic Tamburlaine, Arkestra, Butler, multi-instrumentalist Robbie Laven, Highway, Farmyard, Mammal, Rockinghorse, Wide Mouth Frogs at the end of the decade . . . and the Windy City Strugglers who he would subsequently join.
Character sketches (Charley Gray), evocative descriptions of bars, clubs and smoke-filled gigs, encounters with other bands out there at the same time (Th' Dudes, Hello Sailor, Blerta and more) fill these pages with life, humour and memories.
Much of what Bollinger writes will resonate with his readers on a personal level because of their commonality; school days and mildly rebellious behaviour; saving up to buy singles and albums (many dutifully noted); long gone but much missed record shops; The Whole Earth Catalogue and The Little Red Schoolbook; borrowing jazz albums from the United States Information Service in Wellington (at the time I was doing exactly the same in Auckland); the free Hot Licks magazine which was the forerunner to Rip It Up . . .
Then on through the Springbok tour protests; seeing Space Waltz on television for the first time; Muldoon; Dylan at Western Springs (Bollinger had a singular and strange personal encounter with the man); Bob Marley; the arrival of punk . . . . . .
At the end of Goneville the Eighties have rolled around and the author is hearing the new sound of Flying Nun bands emerging as he heads off overseas to discover the American roots of the soul, blues and rhythm and blues he was weaned on, loves and understood.
And interpolated between the memoir, the journalism, contemporary interviews and such are three stand-alone passages in which he writes passionately and with insight about some songs which are key to him. And they are not what you might guess.
So although made up of those different styles, like a great album this plays out through the different moods, moments, people and politics to leave a profound impression not just of Nick Bollinger's story, but that of a decade.
While we might hope for someone to step up and cover Auckland or other centres during this decade, you can't help but feel Bollinger has taken out the middle ground with this highly readable, informative and thoughtful . . . "memoir"?

Village Visit
Small Ship Cruise
Day 1 Valletta | Embark
The whole of the Maltese capital Valletta is Unesco World Heritage-listed and occupies a peninsula in the north-east of the island. From the fountain of Tritons to Saint-Elme fort, there are as many majestic streets as there are narrow staircase vennels to explore. The painted loggia and carved corbels on the tall houses will accompany you in your explorations, and you'll rarely be bothered by traffic. Among the city's countless monuments, you can visit Saint-John's cathedral, the Grandmasters palace decorated with coats of arms and frescoes, not to mention the ramparts which have guarded the city since the 16th century. Arranged in terraces, the Barrakka Gardens will punctuate your promenade with a green and floral experience.
Day 2 Catania, Sicily
Sicily's second city Catania is dominated by the majestic silhouette of Mount Etna. Nourishing and devastating at the same time, this giant crowned with smoke rings brought about the destruction of the city at the end of the 17th century. Catania was then rebuilt in the late Baroque style, and the many monuments of this epoch have earned its status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The baroque churches of the harmonious Via dei Crociferi perfectly illustrate the riches of this architectural heritage. During your stop, be sure to visit Saint Agatha Cathedral with its apses made of lava stones and its square decorated with a fountain of the Elephant, the animal which allegedly has the power to calm the fury of Mount Etna.
Day 3 Taormina, Sicily
Located on Sicily's eastern coast, in the province of Messina, the seaside town of Taormina is Sicily's Saint-Tropez, boasting heritage sites, secluded beaches, and luxury shopping. You can visit its medieval center, suspended 300 meters above sea level, where terraces offer a spectacular view of the Mediterranean Sea. Another vestige of its past is the ruins of the Greco-Roman theatre. This extremely well-preserved site attracts visitors who are fascinated by the natural beauty of the area which overlooks a turquoise bay.
Day 4 Katakolon
This picturesque village stretches along the Ionian sea in the west of the Peloponnese. Its main harbor offers a vast panorama of the coastline's wooded hillsides. Dazzling white, the church of Saint-Nicolas houses a selection of sumptuous icons to feast your eyes on. You can also pay a visit to the archaeological site of Olympus on the slopes of Mount Kronos.
Day 5 Itea | Crossing the Corinth Canal
Tucked away in the Gulf of Corinth, this little port is situated in continental Greece, north-west of Athens. Take an easy stroll along the old cobblestone quays, while gazing at the summits encircling the Bay of Itea. We wouldn't be surprised if you are tempted by a visit to the Delphi Sanctuary. The sanctuary is located on a plateau on the slope of Mount Parnassus, just ten kilometers from Itea. A listed UNESCO World Heritage site, this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The ancient ruins are surrounded by steep mountains, and their Archaeological Museum is chock-full of cultural delights.
The Corinth Canal cuts through the Isthmus of Corinth, turning the Peloponnese into an island as it separates the region from the Greek mainland. Inaugurated in 1893, the canal is a little over six kilometers long and enables merchant vessels and passenger to avoid a long 400-km detour around the peninsula. The two sides of the canal reach a height of approximately fifty meters. From the exterior decks, don't miss this unique opportunity to watch the ship as it navigates along the narrow strip of water encased between tall, ochre cliffs. What an experience!
Day 6 Nafplion
The engaging town of Nafplion is staggered up green hillsides of the Argolic Gulf, to the east of the Peloponnese. Don't be surprised by its extremely varied cultural heritage. For instance, you'll see the ancient agora on the plateau of Akronafplia, Italianate arcades in Syntagma square as well as the baroque fortress of Palamidi on a hillside of the same name. At the top of the hill, views of the gulf and the surrounding mountains are simply awesome. If you want to chill out by the water's edge, walk along the Arvanitia promenade to a beautiful creek in the shade of cedars and cypresses.
Day 7 Hydra
This unusual gem belonging to the Saronic islands is located to the east of the Peloponnese. There are no cars here. Named after the island, the harbor town is layered up the slopes of a mountainous bay. You may be surprised to see beautiful stone mansions. These are traditional here, as are the multi-colored caïquesalong the quays. Further along the shore, within the walls of the "Monastery of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary" is a museum of Byzantine art. Collections from Athens National History Museum are exhibited in the elegant villa Koundouriotis.
Day 8 Athens | Disembark
Disembark after breakfast. Continue your travels on your own or head to the airport for your journey home.

Cardi B Teases Master Plan For Next Album: 'I Can't Just Go With What's Hot'
11/14/2019 by Taylor Weatherby
Cardi B has proven herself a triple threat this year, serving as a judge for Netflix's hip-hop competition Rhythm + Flow and acting alongside Jennifer Lopez in Hustlers. But now, she's ready to put her attention back on the music.
"My album is on my mind 24/7," Cardi B tells Billboard. "It's practically all I'm focusing on."
The "Press" rapper has been working on her sophomore LP, and though she's faced some challenges in her creation process, Cardi assures that hasn't held her back. "There's certain music that I want to do, but I feel like, is people interested in that? I feel like things have changed. It's more like a twerk sound going on right now. It's just like, 'Should I just do my music around that?' But I cannot just go with what's hot. I still gotta go with what I want to do."
That's exactly the approach she took with her debut album, Invasion of Privacy, which worked out just fine: The LP topped the Billboard 200 and earned her a Grammy for best rap album. "I was going with what I want people to hear, and what I like, so that's what I'm doing now," Cardi adds. "I'm just having fun in the studio, because if you think, "My first album was like this, I gotta have the same recipe," it's just not gonna work."
Though Cardi is putting her album at the top of her to-do list, she's still managed to make time for more acting gigs, including her recently teased role in Fast and Furious 9. Cardi also disclosed that she'll be the lead in another upcoming film, though she couldn't disclose any further details about that project. She did disclose how she's feeling about all of this movie work, though: "I'm gonna need more acting classes," she says with a smile.
Cardi's now multi-faceted career all began with "Bodak Yellow" just over two years ago. As the rapper sets her sights on album two, Billboard couldn't help asking Cardi what she thinks the song's legacy is now. And naturally, she gave the most Cardi answer possible.
"It's just the littest song of ever," she says. "Every party, every new year, every Cinco de Mayo, every Thanksgiving, it's just that type of song that you want to play to turn the party up. It's just that song. It's that song that makes you feel like that b--ch, that girl. 'Bodak Yellow' is that girl." Cardi also talked about how being part of Rhythm + Flow impacted her and whether she'd be up for a second season. Check out the full interview above.

generating an alarm should they be moved or tampered with, this is Asset Shield.
Asset Shield is a simple solution utilizing static (motion sensitive) tags to detect an asset which should not be moved, has in fact been moved, alternately for assets allowed to be moved within the premises. Asset Shield provides an alarm condition for tamper (of the tag) and locks the door when an asset is detected in an entrance way, should the door be open or forced, a full alarm is generated.
21st century technology, experience and state of the art electronics combine in a system designed to protect assets, using a simple IT platform the assets are tagged and their tag numbers entered into a database, from here the system is automatic.
The system is designed to link in to existing technology such as access control systems in order to lock doors, CCTV systems to record an alarm event and security desks to alert security which asset and w exit to allow for quick response.
The system once set up can continue to operate even in a power failure or computer down time per ensuring your assets remain yours! Alternative solutions are available for monitoring valuable items during production line processes and throughout the distribution chain.

The Crew From Longtime Are Opening An Incredible Japanese Restaurant!
For almost every single Brisbanite, there are two spots everyone frequents for good times aplenty and bloody fantastic food: Longtime, and Burleigh's Rick Shores.
So, of course when news reaches our desk that the team behind our favourite dining haunts are set to open ANOTHER restaurant, we pay attention. And then lose it!
Honto will soon be Brisbane's newest Japanese restaurant and bar, comprising of a 90-seat dining area and focusing heavily on Japanese fare.
Nathan Lastevec (of ex-Longrain and Longtime fame) has been named as head chef for Honto—so, yeah expect big things—with the menu focused on a very modern dining experience.
As to be expected with these guys, the details are (for now) under tight wrap, but we can look forward to Honto opening later this month.
Until then, we'll wait (impatiently) for our new fave Brisbane restaurant to open its doors. The suspense is killing us!

While Cambodia's Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries aims to increase fish production by 1.3 per cent this year, members of fishery organisations believe that is an unlikely target as drought conditions have tapped out natural resources.
According to ministry's annual report issued last week, fresh water fish production declined by more than 3 per cent last year. With production amounting to 487,905 tonnes in 2015, the ministry aims to increase that number modestly to 494,000 tonnes this year.
The annual report emphasised that the main challenges facing production include the burning of flooded conservation forests and illegal fishing. However, Minh Bunly, program coordinator for the Fishery Action Coalition Team, said that the main concern was that drought conditions have caused persistently low water levels that have reduced vital breeding grounds.
According to him, 70 per cent of prime fishery conservation areas are facing unseasonably low water levels.
"Based on the current situation, there is no hope of increasing this year's production," he said.
"If the government does not address the current challenges, things will remain the same or get worse."
However, Eng Chea San, director general for the fishery administration at the Ministry of Agriculture, said that a small 1.3 per cent increase was achievable despite the challenges.
"It is hard to increase production," he admitted. "But what we can at the very least maintain the current level of production, with the possibility of achieving 1 per cent growth."
However, Bunly believes that fish production faces a far harsher reality then what the ministry's official figures suggest.
According to figures presented by the Ministry of Water Resources and Meteorology and used by the World Food Programme, low water levels have led to a loss of 17 per cent in last year's fish production.
"I believe that 17 per cent is a more accurate number than what the ministry published in their annual report. The fishing conditions are a lot worse than a 3 per cent drop, and many resources are at risk," said Bunly.
Hel Tony, secretariat of Tonle Sap Ministry of Water Resources and Meteorology, declined to comment on the figures as he had yet to see the report.
