I know I'm late to the party, but I just watched the pilot episode of Breaking Bad. Wow, this Walter White guy is a sad, sad man. What we learn in the initial episode is he is a brilliant, accomplished chemist who now attempts to teach chemistry classes to a bunch of unenthused high schoolers. He has just turned 50, his 40ish year old wife is pregnant and his teenage son has MS (or something like it). It's clear he has money problems – he works a second job at a car wash, his wife fusses at him for a $15 charge on the "card we don't use, remember", and his back yard is a wasteland with a dried-up swimming pool.
And then there are the sweaters – in New Mexico. Why, Walter, why? What is with the sweaters? But I digress.
Ok, so he clearly doesn't seem to be where he wants to be at 50. But, so far, his life is not too much different from many Americans today, right? Then things turn really bad, he passes out at the car wash, tries to get the ambulance to let him out because he doesn't have good insurance, and later finds out he has lung cancer and two years to live. In an instant, Walter feels his life goes from struggling, but hanging on, to utter despair and hopelessness.
So, what does he do? Well, since this is a television drama, he must choose something dramatic and somewhat "cringe-worthy", as my husband would say. Even if you haven't seen the show, you most likely have heard enough about it to know what he chose. He chose to not tell his wife and son about his cancer and in a crazy series of events he partners up with a former student to make crystal meth. Obviously the car wash gig just wasn't paying the bills. But, a life of crime – maybe, just maybe – that will work. While this bright idea ends in disaster in the pilot, presumably he has some success with it later on or the show wouldn't have continued for several seasons.
As a financial coach, I truly feel for Walter. My heart goes out to anybody with financial struggles. But, I can't help but think how his life could have been so much different if he had taken Financial Peace University just a couple of years before we meet Walter. He would have been so much better prepared to face cancer and the possibility of leaving his family fatherless. For starters, he would have had a decent term life insurance policy. No more stress about leaving his wife with debt, no income, and alone with two children. He and his wife would have been living on a written budget and working together on their debt snowball. Working together! That is the most important thing Walter would have learned from the class. Spouses are a team, they communicate, they are open and honest always, they make decisions together. So much more can be accomplished when you know you have each other's back.
But, there really is no point in overanalyzing what Walter should have done in the past is there? The same goes for each one of us. As much as we want to sometimes, we can't go back in time and change past decisions. We have to start from where we are today.
So, let's start from where Walter finds himself in this episode, at the point where he feels his life is crashing down around him. If he had decided to come to me for coaching at that point instead of choosing the crystal meth option, what would I have advised him to do? Since in this theoretical situation, I don't have access to the details of his finances – income, expenses, savings, debts – I'll stick with "big picture" issues. First and foremost, this man really, really, really needs to talk to his wife. If he didn't bring her to the session, I'd let him know there would be no coaching until his wife came with him.
I'd let him know I get it. I get why he doesn't want his wife to know. He feels he should be the provider, the protector, the MAN. This is truly noble of him. The world would be a much better place if more men lived up to their responsibilities as husbands and fathers and be the MAN for their families. But being the MAN doesn't mean doing it alone. His wife clearly loves him and is hurting because she already knows something is terribly wrong. She wants to be involved; she wants to help; she doesn't want to be on the sidelines.
After he had let it all out to his wife and they had had a good cry together (or she had a good cry, I know, I know, real men don't cry), I would encourage them to find emotional support. Yes, their finances are a mess and need to be dealt with, but when we're talking about terminal cancer, baby on the way, special needs teenager, this family needs all the love and support they can get. They need to reach out to their family, to support groups, to a church. They need prayer. They need shoulders to cry on. They need people who have been through similar situations to give advice.
For their finances, it's hard to say much without all the details. But, criminal activity is NOT an option. It is never an option. It might be time for his wife to find a stable job. Currently, she is a writer who hasn't been writing much. I know this will pain Walter. He doesn't want his pregnant wife to help support the family. He's the MAN. Guess what man? It's time to do what is best for your family. Proverbs 31:10-11 says "Who can find a wife of noble character? For her value is far more than rubies. The heart of her husband has confidence in her and he has no lack of gain." Have some confidence in your wife, Walter.
It's time to get organized, have a written budget every month, get proactive in dealing with creditors, letting them know why you can't pay them but you're getting your act together as best you can. It may be time to sell stuff, though the scenes in their house indicate they may have already done that. It doesn't look pretty, but there is hope. There is always hope. Even if the house if foreclosed on, even if bankruptcy is declared, there is still hope.
Speaking of hope, Walter really needs Jesus, doesn't he? Walter needs to know the unfailing, unconditional love of Jesus. He needs to know that Jesus died on the cross for Walter's sins. And Jesus is yearning for him to accept His gift of salvation. "For God did not destine us for wrath but for gaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ Jesus" (2 Thessalonians 2:13) He already knows all his worries and fears, He's just waiting for him to "phone home" and ask for help. He's just waiting to provide a kind of peace and hope that only He can provide. "Have no anxiety at all, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and mind in Christ Jesus" (Phillipians 4:6-7).
I guess if Walter had followed my advice the show wouldn't have made it past the pilot. It wouldn't have been dramatic enough. I'm ok with that. Do we really want lives filled with drama and crazy bad decisions? Or do we want a life filled with peace and hope?
I pray your life is nothing like Walter's, but if you are struggling to find peace and hope with your finances, I'm here to help. Contact me at goodcentscoaching@gmail.com.
P.S. For all of you Breaking Bad fanatics, I actually did enjoy the show – good writing, good acting, very intense. So don't be upset with me for wanting it to go in another direction, you know, if it wasn't a TV show.

The original castle is thought to have been built circa 1250 and was the principal seat of the fearsome Ely O'Carroll clan. In the aftermath of the death of the chieftain Mulrooney O'Carroll in 1532 a bitter succession dispute arose over the leadership of the clan. The dispute came to an abrupt end when 'one-eyed Teige O'Carroll' who as mass was being celebrated in the room stormed in chanting holy rites and drove a sword into the back of the priest who was also his older brother Thaddeus. The fatally wounded priest fell onto the altar in front of his family and breathed his last.

Eugene and Anke McKernan have been producing scarves since 1985. Working together in their workshop in Tuamgraney,County Clare they weave on century old Hattersley Domestic looms which combine all the knowledge and precision engineering of the nineteenth century. The knitted styles are made on their 50 year old Stoll knitting machine as well as a modern electronic 8-Gauge machine. Each scarf and shawl is then hand finished in the McKernan's workshop. By using only the best quality natural fibres, these scarves consciously differ from fast changing fashion trends.
As a family business using traditional production methods, McKernans always try to stay true to their core values of sustainable quality and good design.

Q: Problema con asincronismo Tengo una funcion de este tipo:
function pru1(){
    var temp1=pru2('Chocolate');
    if(temp1){
     alert('Chocolate');
    }else{
     alert('Nope');
    }
}

function pru2(element){
    $.get('/listaElementos.php',{
                funcion:'listar',
                element:element
            }).done(function(data){
              return data;
            });
}

el problema es que me evalua temp1 antes de que pru2 conteste, como podria hacer para asegurarme la respuesta de pru2 antes de evaluar con el if?.

A: No puedes devolver desde un callback hacia el exterior porque es otro scope/ámbito de ejecución. Puedes usar un callback o devolver una promesa.
Callback
function pru2(element, cb){
  $.get('/listaElementos.php',{
    funcion:'listar',
    element:element
  }).done(function(data){
    cb(data);
  });
}

function pru1() {
    pru2('Chocolate', function(temp1) {
      if(temp1){
        alert('Chocolate');
      } else{
       alert('Nope');
      }
    });
}

Promesa
function pru2(element, cb) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    $.get('/listaElementos.php', {
      funcion:'listar',
      element:element
    }).done(function(data) {
      resolve(data);
    }).fail(function(jqxhr, error, status) {
      reject(error);
    });
}

function pru1() {
  pru2('Chocolate')
    .then((temp1) => {
      if(temp1) {
        alert('Chocolate');
      } else {
       alert('Nope');
      }
    })
    .catch(err => console.error(err));
}

// o usando async/await
async function pru1() {
  try {
    const temp1 = await pru2('Chocolate');
    if(temp1){
      alert('Chocolate');
    } else{
      alert('Nope');
    }
  } catch (e) { console.error(e); }
}

A: Lo que pasa es que Javascript va a ejecutar "linealmente" todo lo que pongas en una sola función. A pru1 no le importa (o más bien no sabe) que pru2 va a devolver un valor.
Lo que necesitas hacer es aprender a usar las callbacks que proporciona el lenguaje para hacerlo. El ejemplo más directo lo tienes en el propio $.get donde se esperará a que el servidor responda para ejecutar el camino de done si no hay ningún problema.
En resumidas cuentas, una callback se ejecutará una vez que la función termine. Una aproximación sería:
function pru1(){
  //La función que se pasa como argumento es el callback que se ejecutará al final.
  pru2('Chocolate', function(respuestaCallback){
    if(respuestaCallback){
      alert('Chocolate');
    }else{
      alert('Nope');
    }
  });
}

function pru2(element, callback){
  $.get('/listaElementos.php',{
    funcion:'listar',
    element:element
  }).done(function(data){
    //Una vez que el servidor responda, se invoca a
    //la función pasada como argumento en pru1.
    callback(data);
  });
}

Diabetes and depression predict dementia risk in people with slowing minds
People with mild cognitive impairment are at higher risk of developing dementia if they have diabetes or psychiatric symptoms such as depression, finds a new review led by UCL researchers.
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a state between normal ageing and dementia, where someone's mind is functioning less well than would be expected for their age. It affects 19% of people aged 65 and over, and around 46% of people with MCI develop dementia within 3 years compared with 3% of the general population.
The latest review paper, published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, analysed data from 62 separate studies, following a total of 15,950 people diagnosed with MCI. The study found that among people with MCI, those with diabetes were 65% more likely to progress to dementia and those with psychiatric symptoms were more than twice as likely to develop the condition.
"There are strong links between mental and physical health, so keeping your body healthy can also help to keep your brain working properly," explains lead author Dr Claudia Cooper (UCL Psychiatry). "Lifestyle changes to improve diet and mood might help people with MCI to avoid dementia, and bring many other health benefits. This doesn't necessarily mean that addressing diabetes, psychiatric symptoms and diet will reduce an individual's risk, but our review provides the best evidence to date about what might help."
Confirming these findings and incorporating appropriate preventative strategies could play an important part in lessening the ever-increasing societal burden of dementia in our ageing population.
Professor Alan Thompson
The Alzheimer's Society charity recommends that people stay socially and physically active to help prevent dementia. Their guidelines also suggest eating a diet high in fruit and vegetables and low in meat and saturated fats, such as the Mediterranean diet.
"Some damage is already done in those with MCI but these results give a good idea about what it makes sense to target to reduce the chance of dementia," says senior author Professor Gill Livingston (UCL Psychiatry). "Randomised controlled trials are now needed."
Professor Alan Thompson, Dean of the UCL Faculty of Brain Sciences, says: "This impressive Systematic Review and meta-analysis from The Faculty of Brain Science's Division of Psychiatry underlines two important messages. Firstly, the impact of medical and psychiatric co-morbidities in individuals with mild cognitive impairment and secondly, the importance and therapeutic potential of early intervention in the prevention of dementia. Confirming these findings and incorporating appropriate preventative strategies could play an important part in lessening the ever-increasing societal burden of dementia in our ageing population."

BBC Watchdog fraudster jailed for unsafe gas work
A self-employed gas fitter has been jailed after working on gas appliances while unregistered.
#boiler #engineer #gas safe register #health and safety executive #hse
Manchester Crown Court heard that in November 2014, Mr Richard Goldthorpe was served a Prohibition Notice by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) banning him from carrying out gas work unless he gained the necessary competence and registered with the Gas Safe Register.
An investigation by HSE subsequently found that between 3 March 2018 and 22 March 2019, Mr Goldthorpe undertook work on gas appliances at seven addresses across England. On one occasion, he used a false name. His unsafe work featured on the BBC Watchdog programme.
Several defects were found on each gas appliance worked on by Mr Goldthorpe, including incomplete and defective flue joints, flues not sealed to building structures, and the dangerous decommissioning of a back boiler; all the defects identified posed safety risks for the homeowners and their families.
Richard Goldthorpe, of Irwin Road, St Helens pleaded guilty to:
Seven separate offences under Section 3 (2) of the Health & Safety at Work etc Act 1974
One offence under Regulation 3 (3) of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998
One offence under Section 33(1) (g) of the Health & Safety at Work etc Act 1974.
While on bail awaiting sentence, Mr Goldthorpe undertook further gas work while unregistered and subsequently pleaded guilty to two additional offences; one under Regulation 3 (3) of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations and one under Section 33(1) (g) of the Health & Safety at Work etc Act 1974.
Mr Goldthorpe was jailed for 16 months.
Speaking following the hearing, HSE Inspector Anthony Banks commented: "Richard Goldthorpe knowingly defrauded homeowners and purposely misled them into thinking he was registered with Gas Safe Register.
"Mr Goldthorpe had even been warned on national television that he was breaking the law. The work he did was unsafe and he put several families at risk. It is only a matter of chance that no one was seriously harmed.
"All gas work must be done by registered Gas Safe engineers to ensure the highest standards are met to prevent injury and loss of life. The public should always ask to see the gas engineer's identification and check the registration number online (www.gassaferegister.co.uk) or ring the Gas Safe Register customer helpline 0800 408 5500."

5 February, 2013 - TripAdvisor®, the world's largest travel site*, announces the winners of its 2013 Travellers' Choice Awards for the Most Romantic Hotels, honouring the most romantic hotels in the UK, Europe and the world.
Unlike any other hotel honours, TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards are based on millions of valuable reviews and opinions from travellers around the world. "With the most romantic time of the year fast approaching, these awards recognise the hotels that couples rate highest in the romance stakes. It's great to see two British hotels in the world top 10 rivaling the likes of famously romantic destinations such as Italy and the Maldives," commented Emma Shaw TripAdvisor spokesperson.
While a romantic break often conjures up thoughts of white sand and turquoise waters, the results of this year's Travellers' Choice Awards for the Most Romantic Hotels reveal that there's no need to venture off to a far flung destination – the UK, and in particular Cumbria, is home to two of the most romantic hotels in the world's top five.
The Cranleigh Boutique in Bowness-on-Windermere has been crowned the UK's most romantic hotel. But, not just rating high for romance in the UK, the Cumbria hotel has also wowed couples to be ranked third most romantic hotel in the world.
And, just down the road, the Cedar Manor Hotel and Restaurant in Windermere takes the title of second most romantic hotel in the UK and fourth in the world. Built in 1854 as a private country house retreat, private and secluded with views of the stunning Lake District mountainside, this hotel makes for the ideal hideaway for couples wishing to relax and spend some quality time together.
For couples looking to escape the UK, the Anastasis Apartments in Santorini, Greece has been crowned the most romantic hotel in the world. Perched on top of the cliffs of the Caldera, the hotel boasts an infinity swimming pool overlooking the ocean and an outdoor Jacuzzi, providing the perfect romantic setting. La Minerva in Capri, Italy takes the runner up spot.
For the complete list of winners from the 2013 Travellers' Choice Awards for the Most Romantic Hotels, more reviews and candid traveller photos, go to www.tripadvisor.co.uk/TravellersChoice-Romance (please note this link will be live with 2013 results on Tuesday 5th February).
The Travellers' Choice Awards for the Most Romantic Hotels are based on the millions of hotel reviews and opinions from travellers on TripAdvisor gathered over a 12-month period since the 2012 awards, with emphasis on insights from those who have marked, on the review form, that they stayed at the hotel as a 'Couple'.


Gwyneth Paltrow talks about being rated the Most Hated Celebrity: "More than, like, Chris Brown?"
Gwyneth Paltrow fended off competition from Kristen Stewart and Justin Bieber to claim the title of Most Hated Celebrity in 2013 (as well as People's Most Beautiful Woman, but y'know).
But how did the actor feel about picking up the questionable prize? Well, she reckons there was a more worthy candidate.
"First of all, I was like I'm the most hated celebrity? More than, like, Chris Brown? What did I do?!" she said on BBC News' Hard Talk.
When host Stephen Sackur responded that she might have made people "feel bad", she responded: "That was never my intention. But all I can do is be my authentic self and if you know me, you know who I am and that I have fun and eat and that I'm so appreciative of my life.
"I think there are things about me that can make people draw conclusions. For example, there's a perception that I grew up very wealthy and that I was raised with a silver spoon in my mouth, which inspires a lot of resentment.
"The interesting thing is my parents did well and I was able to go to a fantastic school and we grew up in New York, but the minute I left college to try and pursue acting my father was supportive but said, 'You're completely on your own'.
"The idea that I'm spoiled is not accurate but I can see how somebody might have that perception."
Gwyneth? Spoiled? It's not like she goes around with $15,000, 24-carat gold dildos or anything. Oh wait.

IF MY BOOK: The Step Back, J.T. Bushnell
Welcome to another installment of If My Book, the Monkeybicycle feature in which authors shed light on their recently released books by comparing them to weird things. This week J.T. Bushnell writes about his debut novel, The Step Back, out now from Ooligan Press.
If The Step Back were a basketball move, it would be one you teach your kid brother, thinking it's for his sake.
If The Step Back were a brother, it would be one who quits basketball, preferring drugs and delinquency instead.
If The Step Back were a father, it would be one who asks frustrating questions about the inner lives of the people who make fun of your teeth.
If The Step Back were a mother, it would be one who shows you how to insult such people effectively, and then, when that doesn't work, takes an extra job to pay for your orthodontia.
If The Step Back were a dog, it would be one your mother finally adopts for you, fulfilling your childhood dream, just before you leave for college and she leaves for a woman.
If The Step Back were a college, it would be one with a terrible basketball team, which you give up everything to join, only to discover you're not good enough, not even for that.
If The Step Back were a lover, it would be a Humane Society volunteer you break up with for saying that happiness is a choice we make.
If The Step Back were a lover, it would be a cold photographer with a bleak view of the world, which you accidentally confirm.
If The Step Back were a lover, it would be a landlord who casually sums up all your deepest mysteries and then leaves your possessions scattered on the lawn.
If The Step Back were a day, it would be the end of daylight savings, and you would have no choice but to fall back.
If The Step Back were a tree, it would be an ancient Sequoia, its trunk shaped like a horseshoe, the center hollowed out and scorched black, inspiring whole families to stand inside it, palming the black charcoal, trying to sense the life behind it.
J.T. Bushnell teaches writing and literature at Oregon State University. His fiction has been published in twenty literary journals, and his essays about writing appear in Poets & Writers, The Writer, and Fiction Writers Review, where he is a contributing editor. The Step Back is his first novel. Follow him on Twitter at @jtbushnell1.

OBITUARY

Michael Kidron

By Lee Sustar | April 18, 2003 | Page 4

MICHAEL KIDRON, longtime British socialist and theorist, died last month in London at the age of 72.

Even for those of us who never met him, Kidron's contribution to our political education is greatly appreciated. As an editor and frequent contributor to the International Socialism journal in the 1960s, Kidron was central to the project of making revolutionary socialist politics relevant to a new generation of radicals.

Kidron's work reflected the best of the International Socialist tradition--seeing theory not as an academic pursuit, but as a way to generalize and apply Marxism to the changes in the world after the Second World War, even when it challenged orthodoxy--as in developing the theory of state capitalism in Russia.

Kidron's article, "A Permanent Arms Economy" remains the best summary explanation of how the Cold War arms race fueled the economic boom of the 1950s and 1960s in the U.S. and Western Europe. Yet rather than seeing the boom as permanent, as was the fashion of the day, Kidron's book, Western Capitalism Since the War, anticipated the economic crisis that emerged in the early 1970s.

Born in South Africa into a Zionist family, Kidron moved to Palestine shortly before the founding of Israel. He followed his sister, Chanie Rosenberg, and her husband, Tony Cliff, to London years later, and quickly became central to the founding of the Socialist Review group, the forerunner of the International Socialists and, later, the British Socialist Workers Party.

Kidron left the organization in the 1970s over theoretical political differences. He continued to work as a writer and editor at Pluto Press, producing The State of the World Atlas and other resources for activists.

Kidron's contributions to Marxism stand the test of time. And his conclusion in a 1965 article remains relevant today: "The greatest service we can render international socialism is to help stoke up the fires at home."

Battle of the Bands: We Try out Maternity Bands for the Frugal Mom-to-Be!
I'm 4 months pregnant, and I haven't a thing to wear. After 4 kiddos, I'm showing.. really showing, and I don't have any maternity clothes for the winter season. I did a little research, and found that maternity bands (or "belly bands") could be an affordable way to wear my regular jeans a bit longer, and possibly avoid buying maternity jeans altogether if I get a size larger. Also, being a c-section Mom, I find the thought of not having to zip up my pinchy denim pants soon after surgery to be a comforting thought.
I purchased two comparable brands of light-weight maternity bands to test during my pregnancy. (There is also a well-known Bella Band that is made of a heavier material, but for my tests, I wanted to go lighter.) Here are my findings!
Pros: This was an affordable addition to my wardrobe. It covered a large area, making it great for covering the top of my unbuttoned pants, while smoothing out my belly.
Cons: The material was a bit silkier than I had expected (in fact, it felt like a slimming undergarment rather than the top of a pair of maternity pants.) It had a tendency to roll down a bit on top as my stomach got larger, and it didn't seem to let my skin breathe as much. (I sweated while wearing it.) It came only in one size, which means that for a smaller gal like me (I wear a size 4/6 normally), it should contain my belly throughout pregnancy. For someone larger, however, I don't know if it will work.
Pros: The material for this band was a bit less shiny, making it stay in place well and allowing my skin to breathe. It also came in three colors for all occassions, and was available in sizes for a variety of body types. I also loved that this looked a bit more like a long T-shirt over my jeans, since they tend to peek out a bit. This makes it ideal for those who don't want to wear super-long shirts over their bands!!
Cons: Hard to find in stores, I did find one at my local Target. I would suggest ordering online for the best selection.
The verdict? For just a couple bucks more the BeBand rules! Made by the makers of the original BellaBand, I'm not surprised. If you're looking for a light-weight band, need variety, and want something that doesn't look like a girdle underneath your shirt, go for it!
*Yes! This post contains an affiliate links. Rest assured, it doesn't affect our findings, but it does help support our blog!


The Minutes of the Annual General Meeting held in Coleraine, 7 September 2007 were accepted and signed as a true record.
Proposed by: John Gillespie, seconded by: Kent Anderson and passed nem con.
AG informed the meeting that EUROCALL membership was currently between 200 and 250 members. She was pleased to report the successful initiation of a joint CALICO-EUROCALL membership which saw members of both Associations enjoying mutual benefits. She hoped that those attending the meeting would encourage their institutions to consider taking corporate memberships of the Association as well as library subscriptions to Re CALL . The President notified the meeting that a small increase in the membership fee would be necessary in order to meet rising costs. This would be confirmed at the 2009 AGM and implemented in the calendar year 2010.
Reports on EUROCALL Special Interest Groups: up-to-date information on SIG activities. Projects: reports on on-going CALL or CALL-related R&D projects in which EUROCALL members participate. Recommended websites: reports and reviews of examples of good practice in language learning website development and use.
Presenters were being invited to submit conference papers/show & tell articles for publication in the EUROCALL Review.
Archived videos and podcasts from the conference Virtual Strand.
Angela Chambers was thanked for her work in maintaining the CALL bibliography.
This was the third year of the Virtual Strand, coordinated by Lesley Shield. AG gave thanks to LS and to Peppi Taalas and the local team in Székesfehérvár. This year's VS consisted of streamed plenary sessions by Agnes Kukulska-Hulme, Andrea Kárpáti and Patrik Svensson as well as the Panel discussion on � CALL: New competences and social spaces� chaired by Phil Hubbard and Trude Heift. AG thanked all involved and reminded members that the VS would be archived and available at the exclusive members area of the EUROCALL website. LS and PT would be making a short presentation re the VS during the meeting.
In naming the 17 National/Regional Representatives, AG highlighted the important work undertaken by this group which included promoting EUROCALL through their national websites and holding regional workshops. One such workshop, with over 60 participants, was held by the CMC SIG at University of Padova , Italy , in April 2008. A full report would appear in issue No. 14 of The EUROCALL Review, due in Sept. '08. The NatReps meet during the annual conference and are coordinated by Peppi Taalas.
The recipient of the János Kohn Scholarship for 2006, Joanna Jendryczka-Wierszycka from Poznan , Poland was in attendance at S zékesfehérvár . This scholarship provides for one years membership and attendance at the annual conference. The President invited submissions for the annual Research Award. This valuable award includes guaranteed publication in Re CALL , attendance at the annual conference and a year's membership of EUROCALL. The closing date for submission for both the Research Award and the János Kohn Scholarship for 2009 is 31 January, 2009.
In addition to the three special interest groups currently operating within EUROCALL (Natural Language Processing, CorpusCALL and Computer Mediated Communication Sigs), it was hoped to establish a new Sig for Teacher Education and CALL during this conference. Sigs were being co-ordinated by Robert O'Dowd. The President reminded the meeting that any member of EUROCALL was welcome to join these special interest groups and that proposals for new Sigs would be welcomed.
In closing, Ana Gimeno expressed her thanks and appreciation to Zsuzsanna Angeli and the team at S zékesfehérvár for their wonderful organisation of EUROCALL 2008, and gave special mention to the 35 members of the EUROCALL 2008 Scientific Committee.
Acceptance of the President's Report was proposed by Robert Gettings, seconded by Inge-Anna Koleff and passed nem con.
As the Treasurer, Angela Chambers, was unable to attend the conference, the Secretary General, Margaret Gammell, presented the annual accounts of the Association for the period 1 July 2007 to 30 June 2008 on her behalf. Income from membership was €23,210 with a further income of €2,705 received from CUP. The Treasurer wished to thank John Gillespie and confirmed having received €7,262 in conference profit from the 2007 conference. JG had advised the Treasurer that a further amount of €1,738 would be transferred to the EUROCALL account in due course, making a total profit of €9,000. This amount would be included in the budget for 2008-2009. Forecasts from CUP had predicted a surplus to EUROCALL in the region of 5000 pounds sterling for 2009. However, the reduction in membership numbers in 2008 made this unlikely and a sum of €5,000 was allocated in the budget. Expenditure for the period was generally as expected with the exception of travel which at €6,077 was higher than budgeted. This was explained by the expensive travel destinations in 2007 and 2008. EUROCALL 2009 would be held in Gandia , Spain . This was expected to be a low cost destination, and it was therefore envisaged that travel expenses would return to normal rates for 2008-09 and an amount of €4000 was included in the budget . While there was a significant deficit in the year-end accounts due to lower membership numbers the Executive Committee had agreed that EUROCALL should nevertheless continue in its endeavour to encourage and assist conference attendance through the J án os Kohn Scholarship and the Research Award. A sum of €800 had therefore been allocated to each of these. It was also felt that upgrading the website was of vital importance and an amount of €1500 was allocated to this area. The Treasurer had therefore prepared a budget based on what was a relatively tight financial situation and expected to return a small profit in the amount of €483, to be transferred to the reserve at year end.
Acceptance of the Audited Accounts was proposed by George Ypsilandis, seconded by Mirjam Hauck and passed nem con.
Acceptance of the Budget was proposed by John Gillespie, seconded by Joseph Dias and passed nem con.
5.1 Françoise Blin, EUROCALL Website: FB reported that EUROCALL was looking at ways of improving the website and would welcome suggestions to be sent to her or the Secretary. In the absence of a Content Management System it was intended to explore the possibilities of JISCmail for storing and accessing files. MG would be reporting to the Executive Committee in due course in this connection.
5.3 Graham Davies, Second Life: GD reported on his participation in Second Life the 3-D virtual world where he had set up a EUROCALL headquarters. GD would be investigating the possiblities this virtual world presented to EUROCALL members and invited members to visit Second Life by going to the Edunation section of the Second Life website. A pre-conference workshop (jointly run with Lesley Shield) had offerd training to participants. GD would be seeking feedback from participants and would report his experiences in Second Life through the JISCmail discussion list. GD would welcome members' comments, feedback and ideas through the list.
The President was pleased to announce that EUROCALL 2009 would be held in her own institution, Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, at their Gandia campus from 9-12 September 2009. There would be a short presentation on the 2009 conference during the closing ceremony. Members were invited to submit proposals to host EUROCALL 2010 and beyond. Further details available from the EUROCALL office. In closing, Ana Gimeno thanked past, present and future conference organisers, mentioning particularly John Gillespie and David Barr who had organised the 2007 conference. Evaluation reports from the Coleraine conference had given excellent feedback. She reminded delegates to complete and return the evaluation form in their conference pack as this was invaluable to future organisers.
Voting took place for the following positions on the Executive Committee: President, Vice-President and three Committee Members. Results would be posted after the count.


Through the stars to Earth!
This quest is based on the first Soviet Union postapocalypse film. The main characters of the film were moved to the god-forsaken galaxy by teleport-machine. They found themselves on a dying planet: no water, food, circle rusty ruins and savage manners in the spirit of the present apocalypse. The same story happed to you. You find yourself on planet Pluyk. And your only chance to get back to the Earth is to hijack spaceship «pepelats». Really it's a funny story, because Pepelats is far from Millennium Falcon or Enterprise. It's more like a rusty tin can! It rattles, chatters and fumes! You have to repair it and to learn how to get back to the Earth. But you don't have instruction and you don't know the language of this planet. Don't be afraid of the folklore name of this escape room! In fact, it's the most beautiful escape room with special effects, with professional film's decorations and fantastic music that help you to immerse into the atmosphere of the plot.
36 building 3, Bolshaya Novodmitrovskaya st.
The guides speak good English, so if your Russian isn't that great you can definitely still enjoy the experience!
One of the most awesome things I have ever done! You need to think hard and pay a lot of attention to detail. The staff are fluent in English so there is no language barrier as well as being very friendly and fun. The games themselves require only excellent observation skills and critical thinking and teamwork is an absolute necessity. 5/5 without a doubt! Thank you for such an awesome time!!

The heart hero who discovered the heartbeat
Helen Cowan
We all know how the heart works, pumping blood around our body to all our organs. But this wasn't always common knowledge, it's thanks to 16th-century scientist, William Harvey that we discovered the real purpose of the heart. Helen Cowan tells of the discovery of the heartbeat.
What we now know about the heart
When you feel your pulse at your wrist, it's reflecting the pumping action of your heart. Blood moves around the body in two circuits: one from the heart to the lungs and back again (the pulmonary circulation); and one from the heart, through the aorta, to every organ in the body and back again (the systemic circulation).
We take for granted that the heart drives the circulation, moving blood in continuous circuits—not being consumed by the body organs but recycled. It is very well known today. Yet, without a little known scientist named William Harvey, we might still believe some very strange ideas about our inner workings.
What we used to think about the heart
The ancient Egyptians recognised the importance of the heart as a source of emotions and personality (and so today, we still speak of being 'heartbroken', 'disheartened' and 'hard-hearted'). During mummification, other organs were removed and the brain thrown away (as its only function was thought to be to pass mucus to the nose). The heart however, was left in the body with significance in the afterlife.
No value was given to the heart in the circulation of blood. Instead the liver was believed to be at the centre of the circulatory system—just like when the Earth was considered to be the centre of the solar system. Blood was thought to be made in the liver, ebbing and flowing in sea-like waves from the liver to all the body organs where it was devoured.
Once in the heart, the blood was thought to 'boil' changing in colour from blue blood to red blood. We now know, of course, that the change in blood colour is due to the blood actually leaving the right side of the heart, picking up oxygen from the lungs and returning to the left side of the heart.

How Harvey transformed our thinking
Speaking in Latin and accompanied by lutes, Harvey would perform dissections in front of packed lecture theatres. Operating on more than eighty species of mammal, he would cut or clamp the main artery and vein attached to the heart, subsequently showering the audience with blood as the heart beat or completely emptying the heart and ceasing the circulation. A rather graphic way to demonstrate that the heart did beat and thus drive the circulation around the body.
Transparent cold blooded fish (whose hearts beat more slowly than humans) would be held up for observation, to show the heart in action, while one unfortunate man with a chest injury that exposed his heart offered a rare insight.
Harvey's discovery in 1628 demolished theories that had stood for more than a thousand years. His hard work and courage to challenge opinion paid off. Oh, and the fact that he was the physician to King James I and King Charles I probably helped him too—sometimes it's what you know as well as who you know that matters.

"One important aspect of public health is the preparedness for emergency outbreaks of disease, which can happen anywhere at any time. Certainly, the recent outbreak of Ebola in West Africa is a devastating reminder. An often overlooked, but globally important set of communicable diseases are Neglected Tropical Diseases. By 2030, the SDG goal is to end the those epidemics, which saw one billion people or one-sixth of the world's population, seeking treatment in 2015."

Last month, for the fourth time in 18 months, I was in the Palestinian city of Ramallah with a group of American Jewish leaders. Ramallah is an interesting, bustling, and complicated city. Although only six miles from Jerusalem, the drive feels much longer. For one thing, the roads were not designed for heavy traffic; for another, there's usually a long wait at the Israeli military checkpoint at Qalandia, the access point to and from areas controlled by the Palestinian Authority.
But once inside the city limits, there is surface-level familiarity; the architecture, street vendors, and smells from cafes and restaurants all remind me of parts of East and West Jerusalem, and Jaffa and Tel Aviv as well. And, although there are no Hebrew signs, the local currency is almost exclusively the Israeli shekel.
On this trip, I was in Ramallah for a four-day Intensive Leadership Seminar offered by Encounter, a nonpartisan educational program that aims to create "a diverse community of Jewish leaders ready to encounter the complex stories, people, and places at the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict." These seminars typically offer speakers, sites, experiences, and informal meetings in a jam-packed itinerary that has us crisscross the region from West Jerusalem to Bethlehem, from a Palestinian Village in Area C to an UNWRA refugee camp, from East Jerusalem to Ramallah, and back to West Jerusalem.
Of all the powerful moments, from hopeful and inspiring to challenging and depressing, there was an unscripted experience in Ramallah that reinforced precisely why firsthand encounters with Palestinians living under Israeli military control on the other side of the Green Line are so important.
As an American Jewish leader who engages with a broad swath of our North American community and with an equally wide range of Israelis, I approach the Israeli-Palestinian situation with the assumption (backed by official, well-respected polling) that most Jews and Palestinians want a peaceful end to the conflict. Although the news media constantly reminds us of political impasses and obstacles, through Encounter and other experiences, I am learning that person-to-person interactions at a grassroots level can offer signs of hope.
On a walking tour of downtown Ramallah, we had a chance to buy some local food. In Zeit Ou Zaater (Olive and Thyme), a small, mostly take-out place – where I opted for lentil soup and freshly-baked bread with zaatar – I re-met Palestinian-American owner, Nasser Abdulhadi, who, post-Oslo, returned to Ramallah from Mamaroneck, NY, to develop his family's hospitality enterprises. Eager to impress Nasser with the Arabic I have been learning, I asked him for lentil soup in Arabic.
The unexpected response was just as delicious as the lemon-scented soup he ladled out: "Wait, you're learning Arabic? I'm learning Hebrew!" Thereupon, he proudly pulled out his notebook to show me his Hebrew writing and his vocabulary and phrase lists. I told him about my similar notebook for Arabic, which I'd left on the bus. He asked me a question about Hebrew, I asked him to clarify something in Arabic. Our eyes met in a shared understanding about the promise of coexistence as we pointed to the shared Semitic root for lentils in Arabic – ads – and in Hebrew – adashim.
When asked about the future, Nasser's Americanism is clear in the way he articulates his fears and hopes. Two states vs. one doesn't matter to him. What does matter is being able to live with dignity and human rights, freely and peacefully as Palestinians where their families have lived for centuries, knowing they will need to share the land with Jews, whose ancestral ties to the same land mirror theirs. Nasser's thinking reflects what opinion surveys tell us about the attitudes of young Palestinians whose access to social media and globalism are influencing them to be more rights-focused in their demands for change. Like their American and Israeli counterparts, these young Palestinians are frustrated with how real peoples' needs are lost when leaders and organizations act more for their own self-preservation than to realize the common good that is their mission.
Today, 50 years after the Israeli-Palestinian map changed dramatically in 1967, Jewish educational programs are hearing from young alumni that their camps, youth movements, day schools, and Israel trips buried the story of what's happening in the West Bank. If the survey report just released about the San Francisco Jewish community is an indication of how young Jews across America feel, we will be hearing more and more critical questions about Israel from young people, who unlike their older peers, have a higher rate of direct experiences with Israel.
By enabling religiously and politically diverse Jewish leaders to hear and see Palestinian society directly, Encounter is building a foundation to address this most profound educational challenge. Thanks to this endeavor, cohorts of Jewish leaders have acquired images, knowledge, and experiences that surely will be expressed when college students and young adults ask: "Why didn't you teach us?" I am hopeful their answer will begin with this: Together let's figure out what constructive education about this pressing topic should look like.

Secondhand Smoke Starts Kids on Path to Heart Disease: Study
Health & Medical Reviews and News 05:56 Child Health, Heart, Smoking,
Secondhand smoke can harm children's arteries, a new study warns.
Researchers used ultrasound to examine the carotid artery in the neck, brachial artery in the upper arm, and abdominal aorta right above the belly button in 298 kids aged 8 to 18 who were not smokers.
Some had been exposed to secondhand smoke and others had not, the study authors said.
The investigators found that participants' carotid and brachial arteries were unaffected by smoke exposure. But there was increased stiffness in the abdominal aortas of kids exposed to secondhand smoke.
The University of Minnesota study was recently published in the journal Pediatric Research.
The findings suggest that the harmful effects of secondhand smoke can be seen in early damage to arteries, but avoiding further exposure can prevent more harm, the researchers said.
"Our study also suggests children are - at least early in life - protected from smoke exposure because we know, from previous research, that secondhand smoke exposure in young adulthood is a significant cardiovascular risk factor," study senior author Justin Ryder said in a university news release. He's an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Minnesota Medical Center in Minneapolis.
Michelle Harbin is a doctoral student in exercise physiology and the study's first author.
"This paper provides insight that secondhand smoking may predispose young children and adolescents to increased abdominal aorta stiffness," she said in the news release. "Stiffness in this particular artery has been previously reported to exhibit increased susceptibility to atherosclerosis, which is a buildup of plaques that can restrict blood flow."
More research is needed to determine how vaping and e-cigarettes affect heart disease risks in children and teens, the study authors said.
One in 10 middle school students and one in four high school students reported using e-cigarettes in the past 30 days, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Alan Pardew has the edge on derby experience - but is it a good thing?
Sometimes insight can be a dangerous thing. Mark Douglas analyses whether Alan Pardew's derby experience is help or hindrance to Newcastle's cause
Alan Pardew celebrates at the Stadium of Light in October 2012
It took until the final whistle of Alan Pardew's second Tyne-Wear derby for him to truly understand the significance of the fixture.
Safely ensconsed in Steve Bruce's office in the bowels of the Stadium of Light after full-time, the Sunderland manager gloomily predicted the fall-out of the 1-0 win that Newcastle had just smuggled out of Wearside.
"I remember Steve Bruce saying to me 'You have just killed the next six weeks for me" and I did not actually know what he meant," Pardew recalls.
"For me at the time, it was 'OK, it's a derby, let's go to the next game' but when you understand how the North East media works, it can be like that."
That season the lesson continued until May. Newcastle rode the crest of a wave into the Europa League while Bruce never quite recovered his composure on Wearside and was out of a job by the turn of the year.
The derby might not have been the only reason why the two seasons diverged so starkly, but it was certainly a staging point for the campaign. That win bought Newcastle time and patience and it banked plenty of favour for a new-look squad.
Pardew knows that a similar outcome tomorrow has the potential to transform the agenda again – but sometimes that knowledge can be a dangerous thing. It certainly constricted Bruce's thinking, to the point where he made bad decisions that ultimately cost him his job.
The question is whether Pardew will fall into a familiar trap, having sampled the bitter fall-out of losing this game back in April.
Being aware of the size of the stakes can sometimes transform a manager's approach even more than it can a players, and while Pardew doesn't seem like the nervous type he admits it is the worst kind of fixture for a boss.
"The game is a tough game for the managers because there is a big fall-out afterwards, particularly in the North East.
"Even if you draw and have not performed well, it gets a huge amount of column inches and conspiracy theories to write and adulation, perhaps beyond the performance if you do well.
"That tide of optimism can carry you and obviously that is what we were looking for."
What Pardew needs to do is channel his knowledge of the game into something positive.
These matches tend to fall into a pattern, and the Newcastle boss has identified the importance of a quick start to the game.
In last season's Stadium of Light derby, Newcastle gained the ascendancy early and always seemed to be on top. It was only Cheick Tiote's red card, collected carelessly, that derailed the Magpies.
By contrast, Newcastle's Gallic newcomers were knocked off their stride by Paolo Di Canio's Sunderland last time around and were unable to play with the composure that they were capable of.
Pardew will send his team out with the instruction to soak in the atmosphere but not to let it knock them off their stride. He feels the team that starts to 'play football' first will invariably be the winner.
"I was an outsider and now I am an insider. And my opinion is the same as when I arrived," he said.
"It has got a special atmosphere and a special electricity to it which is not seen often.
"Sometimes Arsenal v Tottenham can be like that, certainly Rangers v Celtic and I have been to a couple of Manchester derbies which are similar but this is right up there andit is about having two sides to your game.
"You need to have a competitive edge and deal with that real battle of locking horns and then, you have got to play and it is the team that starts playing first.
"And it is the team that starts playing first, that usually, usually wins. Not always but usually."
The North East saw another managerial casualty this week and Pardew sent his sympathy to Tony Mowbray. Gus Poyet will be the fourth Black Cats boss he comes face-to-face with on Sunday.
"It will be the fourth manager of Sunderland but I have faced and it is a difficult game," he said.
"It is a difficult environment to be a Premier League manager or any manager in the North East because we have lost everybody since the start of the year.
"My Christmas plans are out of the window because I was going to invite all the coaches. We will have to rejig those.
"On a serious note, what is done is done, you can't change the past and that will always be seen as Paolo's day. For us it is a different game and hopefully a much better performance from us and also result of course."
The narrative running up to the game has been that Sunderland haven't got a prayer, but the sight of Pope Francis holding up a Black Cats shirt might have given Wearsiders hope of divine inspiration.
Or maybe – given Pardew's insistence that Coloccini has a chance for the game – the Papal order-of-the-day has been praying for the swift return of one of his favourite players.
Pardew played along: "You have got to look at all angles sometimes. We are all looking for marginal gains and I suppose the Pope could help.
"I will have to have a word with Colo to see if he has any influence there. I think he has met him."

Tonga has experienced natural and man-made disasters – and has a National Emergency Management committee and office (NEMO).
The tsunami that destroyed 79 homes, cost nine lives and caused material damage and disruption on the northern Tongan island Niuatoputapu on 30 September 2009 is a potential case study to use in citizenship education about how disaster management works.
Cyclone Rene, which reportedly took no lives but did similar damage throughout most of the inhabited islands of Tonga on 16 February 2010 is another potential case study.
The sinking of the Tongan interisland mv Princess Ashika with the cost of 79 lives in 2009, and led to the establishment of a Royal Commission of inquiry, was a man-made disaster – but offers yet another case study as to how emergency management can work.
Generations of Tongans have encountered cyclones, and other disasters. Cyclone Waka early this century stimulated New Zealand Tongans to form the Tongan Advisory Council to help contribute to relief. Tongans, with some help from their people abroad and other donors constructed concrete block houses intended to be hurricane proof. The machinery of government was developed to help manage disasters.
Other countries have also sought to manage disasters – preparation and warning about them, relief and reconstruction after them.
Some national emergency management offices do things of very local, some of national and some of international significance. They are a part of government that may draw on the whole of government – and more – to manage as best people can.
Information and education are typical parts of emergency management.
A profile about the National Emergency Management office and its committee, publicly accessible, could help locals, nationals and people from afar to inform them on what it planned to do and not do.
Briefings from the emergency managers, provided as educational resource for sections of the public could help citizens and officials prepare themselves for the disaster that might or might not ever come.
Recent disasters have provided case studies of what was available – and what was needed. Existing arrangements and the experience of tsunami, cyclones and sinkings – can suggest the briefings and profiles that could be written, published and taught in citizenship education. They can help citizens and officials understand the big picture, how Parliament works, how government works and how the law works when disaster strikes.
Others learn from experience, so can you.
Local discussions could explore what should be done.
Find out more from the New Zealand and Samoan experience – in 2010 they were learning from each other in a tsunami risk management programme.
New Zealand's tsunami risk management programme has taken another step forward with the announcement today of a revised national Tsunami Advisory and Warning Plan.
The plan sets out national procedures to issue a tsunami warning or advisory. In doing that it explains the possible sources of tsunami that could reach New Zealand, risks to different parts of the country, thresholds for response, the responsibilities of national and regional agencies, and explains what information the Ministry will provide in warnings and advisories.
The Director of Civil Defence and Emergency Management, John Hamilton, said that the revisions to the plan are part of the work being done to apply lessons learned from last year's response to the Samoan tsunami.
"The revisions focus on getting better information to the media, faster. We have changed our templates, action guides for our staff, when we will use our memorandum of understanding with radio and TV and some of the thresholds for when we will issue a warning or advisory," Mr Hamilton said.
• April – May; the Ministry and GNS Science will conduct a nationwide series of tsunami preparedness seminars for local authorities, civil defence agencies, emergency services and other organisations involved in response to a tsunami warning.
• Mid-year; completion of tsunami modelling by GNS Science. This work will enhance the information available in warnings and will be incorporated into future versions of the plan.
• October; national tsunami response exercise, Exercise Tangaroa. The exercise will involve central government agencies, the 16 regional civil defence emergency management groups, science agencies, emergency services and other organisations.
Mr Hamilton said that, flowing down from the national plan, it is important that those organisations with roles to play ensure that they understand the national arrangements, have their own plans in place for their regions and specific responsibilities, and exercise their plans and arrangements.
The Ministry provides public education information through its Get Ready Get Thru programme, GNS Science provides scientific information, and regional and local information is available from the 16 regional civil defence emergency management groups and their associated local authorities.
"We hope that publicity, like this about the tsunami plan, will also encourage people to do more about their own personal emergency planning," Mr Hamilton said.
• upgrading the national warning system.

The Dow Jones FXCM US Buck Index rose rather during the last week of buying and selling, as the main headline used to be the FOMC's determination to taper its asset purchases with the aid of a further 10 billion bucks.

A quick spike within the greenback on Wednesday morning was once erased as merchants placed beforehand of the FOMC coverage announcement. The choice to taper through an extra 10 billion used to be anticipated via most economists, however when taking a look on the chart above, there does some to be an extended-time period greenback sure impression via the remainder of the week.
