Thousands of workers and allies will march in Washington, DC, and in cities nationwide on Feb. 24 as part of the Working People's Day of Action.
The Supreme Court will soon hear a case that will have a big impact on the voices of many working people. The case is one of many recent attacks on the rights of union workers. That's why working people across the country are making a clear stand to keep the freedoms that we've fought for.
Together, participants in the Working People's Day of Action will defend our voice on the job and demand an end to an economy designed to favor the rich and powerful on the backs of working families.

Island Water Symposium at UPEI
On May 14, 2014 May 14, 2014 By peiislanderIn Events
UPEI News Release
Charlottetown, PEI (April 28, 2014)—The future of the Island's water supply will be the subject of an upcoming public symposium at the University of Prince Edward Island. In light of recent concern about increased pressure on our groundwater resources by urban, industrial, and agricultural use, this event is a timely one.
Island Water Futures: Assessing the Science will take place in the Alex H. MacKinnon Auditorium, Room 242 of UPEI's McDougall Hall, beginning at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 20. The symposium is sponsored by the Institute of Island Studies in conjunction with UPEI Research Services.
This is a public-forum event with presentations by three speakers: Dr. Ryan O'Connor, Dr. Cathy Ryan, and Dr. Michael van den Heuvel.
Dr. O'Connor, a graduate of UPEI, is an environmental historian. His PhD thesis, written at the University of Western Ontario, will be published this year by UBC Press under the title The First Green Wave. His talk will provide a general overview of research done so far relating to the Island's groundwater resources; he will review the various scientific papers, reports, and theses produced about the Island's water supply.
Dr. Ryan is a professor cross-appointed to Geoscience and Environmental Sciences at the University of Calgary with a long interest in agricultural impacts on water quality. She leads a team of hydrogeologists working with agricultural scientists to understand groundwater in the fractured sandstone on Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia as part of the Canadian Water Network's Secure Source Water Network.
Dr. van den Heuvel is the Canada Research Chair in Watershed Ecological Integrity at UPEI. He studies the effects of agriculture and chemical use on freshwater and coastal environments. His focus is the endocrine responses, immunotoxicology, and population health of fish. He is working to develop methods and solutions to best monitor environmental problems and better protect rivers in Prince Edward Island.
The symposium will be chaired by Diane Griffin, long-time councillor for the Town of Stratford and a former deputy minister of the provincial Department of the Environment. Last year, Dr. Griffin was awarded an honorary doctorate by UPEI.
Members of the public are cordially invited to attend this symposium. Admission is free. Following the three presentations, there will be ample time for discussion and questions from the floor.

Necessity of Valid Contract to Support Escrow - In Foulkes V. Sengstqcken, (Ore. 1917) 163 Pac. 311, it is said that "A pure escrow presupposes the existence of a valid contract with sufficient parties, a proper subject matter, and a consideration. There must be an actual contract of sale on the one side and of purchase on the other, afid until there is such a contract, the instrument executed by the supposed grantor, though in form a deed, is neither a deed nor an escrow." Accordingly it was held that performance of conditions by a grantee after the grantor had withdrawn the instrument from the custodian was ineffective to accomplish a conveyance. In its decision the court follows Davis v. Brigham, 56 Ore. 41, io7 Pac. 961, Ann. Cas. 1912B 1340, where the same doctrine, though probably not necessary to the decision, was laid down.

The Grape
Which grapes are included in the blend, and their proportion, is one of the key factors determining the style of most Champagnes. Three grapes are used - Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier.
26% of vineyards in Champagne are planted with Chardonnay and it performs best on the Côtes des Blancs and on the chalk slopes south of Epernay. It is relatively simple to grow, although it buds early and thus is susceptible to spring frosts. It produces lighter, fresher wines than those from Burgundy and gives finesse, fruit and elegance to the final blend. It is the sole grape in Blancs de Blancs, which are some of the richest long-lived Champagnes produced.
Pinot Noir accounts for nearly 40% of the plantings in Champagne and lies at the heart of most blends - it gives Champagne its body, structure, strength and grip. It is planted across Champagne and particularly so in the southern Aube district.
The final component is Pinot Meunier and this constitutes nearly 35% of the plantings. Its durability and resistance to spring frosts make the Marne Valley, a notorious frost pocket, its natural home. It ripens well in poor years and produces a soft, fruity style of wine that is ideal for blending with the more assertive flavours of Pinot Noir. Producers allege that Pinot Meunier lacks ageing potential, but this does not deter Krug from including around 15% of it in their final blends.
View Grape
Brut denotes a dry style of Champagne (less than 15 grams per litre). Most Champagne is non-vintage, produced from a blend from different years. The non-vintage blend is always based predominately on wines made from the current harvest, enriched with aged wines (their proportion and age varies by brand) from earlier harvests, which impart an additional level of complexity to the end wine. Champagnes from a single vintage are labelled with the year reference and with the description Millésimé.
Non-vintage Champagnes can improve with short-term ageing (typically two to three years), while vintages can develop over much longer periods (five to 30 years). The most exquisite and often top-priced expression of a house's style is referred to as Prestige Cuvée. Famous examples include Louis Roederer's Cristal, Moët & Chandon's Dom Pérignon, and Pol Roger's Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill.

Naperville, Ill.– Just as quietly as it opened almost two years ago, Best Buy's female-skewed digital imaging boutique, Studio D, shut its doors here last month.
The 5,000-square-foot retail laboratory featured personalized service, soft music, classroom workshops and a limited assortment of CE in order to attract middle-aged moms who were turned off by Best Buy's noise and clutter.
The demographic, dubbed "Jill," became one of the cornerstones of the company's customer centricity program, and Best Buy is incorporating lessons learned from its Studio D experiment into its namesake stores.
The closing follows Best Buy's divestiture in June of eq-life, the health-and-wellness concept stores it also opened about two years ago.
The company still operates Escape, a concept CE shop for 20-something early adopters located in the Lincoln Park district of Chicago.
Packaged media will take another step toward tech-stinction this summer when Best Buy pulls the plug on CDs.

Life's challenges force us to harden up. Relationships, work, children, family and finances all combine to put us under a lot of pressure and the way we are expected to deal with these is to develop resilience and to some extent indifference. We are required to be tough.
To teach our kids to be tough and with each blow life delivers to knock us down, we need to get up, dust ourselves off and pick up where we left off. The more times we start again, the colder and more jaded we become.
What you truly desire. Imagine what you could
Some people believe that showing tough love is an important way to ensure that their children are able to take care of themselves in the future. If you were the recipient of this approach on a regular basis, you might even believe that this has had a positive impact on your life.
Everyone's parents criticize from time to time.
Perhaps what's needed is a shift in attitude. To become stronger and resistant to the tribulations of life, maybe the answer is that we need to become softer not tougher. Maybe what the world needs is more nurture.
If you don't know much about your subscribers, you could consider running a campaign asking them for more details through a simple preference centre. You may wish to consider offering an incentive or freebie in exchange for this information, which will help boost your response rates.
Do something that pushes your boundaries, something that you wouldn't ordinarily do. Take a calculated risk and allow yourself to crumble a little.
All parents occasionally pick on their children, but when the so-called jokes become commonplace, this can be a huge problem. You do not need to accept this type of behavior just because your parent has always joked about something such as your height or weight.
A great place to start is with a minimal template and if you're looking for a quick fix, check out Dynamite – it's a great example of how an elegant design and the use of whitespace can be highly effective in highlighting what you are promoting.
Tips For Increasing Employee Motivation
Without injuring others or placing your own life in danger, it's healthy to let go sometimes. You don't have to be irresponsible to release responsibility and embrace freedom for a change. When life is becoming too burdensome and the weight of obligation and duty seems suffocating, do something that allows you to release yourself from what can feel like a prison.
It's easy to forget that your subscribers are people with likes and dislikes (not just leads). Firstly, always watch your open, CTR, unsubscribe and complaint rates. That's the fast way to gauge whether your email was engaging or not. When appropriate, use what personalisation you have at your disposal.
Tips to take better selfy
If you want to take it to the next level and gauge subscriber sentiment, you could generate feedback by adding a simple "Did you find this email useful?" line in your footer that leads subscribers to a survey. Keep it short and concise though; you're not after War and Peace.
If a survey seems like too much commitment, check out this fun widget. You never know, this feedback may just generate the next idea that takes your email program to the next level.
Most email service providers have inbuilt mobile optimized templates, but if yours doesn't/you want something custom and have budget to spare, consider hiring an email marketing developer on Envato Studio or Upwork. Just ensure you do you research and ask for previous work examples before you hire.
Focus on process-oriented ideas
Did you grow up believing that your parent was physically or emotionally abusive to you because you deserved it? If so, you may still be justifying the terrible behavior of others at your own expense.
Get In Touch With Emotions
Discover how you really feel about things. It's easier said than done. Instead of maintaining the status quo and keeping the peace.
Instead of following the herd and making the predictable and reliable decisions that you are expected to make, ask yourself.
What you truly desire. Imagine what you could accomplish, if failing wasn't an option.If there was no fear of being judged and no adverse consequences.
If there was no fear of being judged and no adverse consequences reliable decisions.
Learning to acknowledge and express our emotions freely may seem like weakness in a culture that requires us to be tough, but in actual fact it takes a strength far more valuable and honorable than living in denial.
Use the "Spaced Repetition" technique
Try the "Pinch Yourself" hack
Schedule learning sessions before bedtime
Study the content, not the language
This technique was introduced by Maneesh Sethi, a frequent traveler who mastered four foreign languages as an adult. His approach was based on the fact that negative stimuli massively boost self-improvement.
Soft is the new hard
When you think that a situation requires you to be tough, to stiffen your upper lip and puff out your chest in the face of something difficult or even traumatic, consider if you have another option. Maybe for a change it's time to wallow in the tragedy of your experience and really feel what it is to be human. Striving for mental toughness may close you off to a world of emotional development and progress that you may otherwise live through if you let yourself open up for a change.
Ways to beat stress at work
How you can use this for language learning?
Get a set of flashcards for memorizing vocabulary or grammar.
Master the hard pinch (it should be quite hard) to activate your body's threat response.
Review a category of flash cards (such as adjectives or group of words). Don't pinch yourself at this stage.
Review the same category, now adding the pinch for each vocabulary word. Spend some time studying the card before moving to the next one.
Softening your perspective towards yourself and others; allowing yourself to experience tenderness and nurturing instead may seem counterproductive, but in the long run, may reap more abundant rewards.
Tough is just bravado. Softening up is a new normal you should try.
You may feel sadness more intensely, or anger. Disappointment, fear, grief. The flip side is you may discover joy like you've never allowed yourself to feel before. You may laugh harder, feel more inspired, encounter wonder and awe at things you previously took for granted.

I've never really got on well with leopard print. When done well it can look really good, and there seems to be many ways of doing it, but I can never seem to get it right! And it always looks so easy. I don't even want to think about my earlier attempts at leopard print.
Today I used a tutorial from Chalkboard Nails to see if it helped, but it still didn't turn out how I wanted! Leopard, you are my nemesis.
My base colour is Color Club I Believe In Amour, the shiny dots are Models Own Mystic Mauve and the outline is Barry M Shocking Pink.
Eh, could be worse! I'll keep trying!
I love it!!! Im liking the 3 diff shades of pink!
soooo cute!! love the pink on pink action.
i saw that tutorial! these look great!
I don't see anything wrong with them? They still look amazing!
Thanks, that's nice of you to say!
I can't get enough of pink, I can't help it!
Haha - I think yours went better than mine! I just tried it yesterday as my MSMD, a similar colour scheme too! I never think of using any thing other than black for the outline of the dots though.
I found it quite difficult to get small shapes and as I used blobs of glitter I feel like I have pimples on my nails! Have you tried it with a cocktail stick? I've heard that's good.

The world population today is touching 7.6 billion; [1]. It concludes the fully developed, developing and under developed countries. Those which have made significant development and had the little awareness about the disasters have surfeited lesser impacts of disasters than those which are still developing or under developed. Actually, the disasters also vary with respect to their nature and extent with regards to the losses these cause, to the infrastructure, population and the area covered. The related severity is also measured in the same context irrespective, the disaster was manmade or natural. Well familiar disasters at the global level had been the Indian Ocean Tsunami (2004), Earth Quake-EQ Pakistan (2005), US Katrina (2005), Myanmar Cyclone Nargis (2008), Pakistan's Flood (2010), North American EQ Haiti (2010), most recently The Indian Ocean Tsunami Nelofer (2014) and very importantly the Global War on terror since 2001 till date. Very recently the "School Terrorism" incident of Peshawar, Pakistan on 16th December 2016 has almost shaken the entire world. All such disasters have various vulnerabilities attached to it but worth mentionable are the socioeconomic, geostrategic, politico military, psychosocial and attitudinal vulnerabilities. Each one of it has a vital role to play while finding out its impact. Among all the least preferred but most lethal and disastrous is the psychosocial vulnerability. The study at length is suggestive to discuss and highlight in detail the psychosocial impacts of the disasters while recommending certain measures to mitigate such vulnerabilities. A holistic approach had been used to view the psychosocial impacts of Nowshera, Pakistan Floods (2010) and Muzaffarabad EQ (2005). "School Terrorism" incident of Peshawar, December 2016 on the affected communities settled at Nowshera, Peshawar and surroundings.

Thank you for your interest in our family, Chapel Baptist Church, and the ministry here in India. It takes prayer for all three to make my mission trips a success.
It is Saturday morning here in Kulshaker. Most people live for the "weekend" which translates into when they can do "our own thing". For a pastor the "weekend" begins late Sunday night and ends early Tuesday morning (for those who take Monday as their day off). Here in India Saturday means catch up on email, study for Sunday (I will be preaching in two church services…the same sermon. Sounds like two for the study effort one. However, one will be in Kannada through a translator. That means that it has to be half as long as the first….and…hopefully communicate the same content. I will be preaching on "Eternal Security".) It also means study for my Sunday morning sermon when I get home. I arrive on Saturday evening and preach on Sunday morning. I hope to sneak in a nap and do some reading in a book I am reading about a British Army Officer that served in India for forty one years.
The first week of class went very well. It was more or less a blurr to me, but, the students seemed to benefit. I often begin class by asking the students if anyone has a testimony that they would like to share about either what the Lord has been doing in their life or ministry. One morning Pastor B. Suresh, from the state of AP shared. He began by saying, "Every time I come to this school I have lots of problems". Remember, we try to have six modules a year with two classes each module. Not all of the students are able to come for every module. Many, including Pastor B. Suresh, live a long way from here. He went on to say, "Each class brings physical problems, spiritual problems, family problems, or some other kind of problems". He had my attention as I have also said the same thing. It seems…at least for me…the "big events" in life or in our "church life" bring a more intense attack of the world, the flesh, and/or the devil. The Christian life and Christian service is a spiritual warfare. Many of our students are pastors and face danger, discouragement, and disappointment. However, they do not serve the Lord because it is easy. They serve the Lord because HE DIED FOR THEM AND MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR THEM TO BE SAVED FROM SPENDING ETERNITY IN HELL. They are not looking for a way to "get the most out of life". They are looking to "live for Him who died for" them. That thought comes from a hymn, written by Ralph Erskine Hudson who lived from 1843-1901. Pastor Suresh went on to say that each problem brings an opportunity to trust God and that God always proves that He is faithful and always helps His children through their problems…and He does. The devil simply trades problems for which you can get God's help for problems which you will have to solve on your own. It is amazing how he makes it look like a "good deal". It reminds me of the fellow I heard say one day, "Have I got a deal for you!". That's a line the devil likes to use.
How happy then my life shall be!


In many cases, it can be difficult to prove who was at fault in a slip and fall accident. If you've been injured in an accident on someone's else's property, the property owner in question may be liable for the damages you incurred.
But proving a slip and fall case can be a challenge, and it's essential that you understand the requirements of such a slip and fall case. Read on and we'll walk you through everything you need to prove in order to receive compensation for your fall.
Whether you are injured at work, while vacationing during Spring Break at a hotel in Florida, or eating at your favorite restaurant, there's no denying the severity of injuries that ensue from slip, trip, and fall injuries. In fact, Slip and Fall injuries are some of the most common types of accidents that result in personal injury.
When a person slips and falls, it can be due to a variety of reasons. And it can be difficult to determine if another party is at fault for your fall.
However, many legal cases pertaining to slip and fall revolve around the idea of negligence. If a property owner has failed to provide a reasonably safe environment for their guests, they can be seen as negligent in the eyes of the law.
Though liability may apply to slips and falls, it may be proven in cases of negligence through security, malfunctioning elevators or even contaminated food. The issue of liability occurs when the individual is harmed from these circumstances.
Slip and fall cases are won by proving that a property owner was aware of dangerous conditions that may have contributed to a slip and fall scenario. Some examples of such conditions include torn carpeting and unmarked wet floors. Take a look at the Target vs Kaufer Slip and Fall Case.
Lazaro Kaufer was shopping at Target when he slipped on some liquid laundry detergent on the floor and faced costly medical bills as a result. The testimony at trial showed that an unidentified individual was walking in front of Mr. Kaufer and carrying a bottle of leaking laundry detergent that Mr. Kaufer slipped on.
Mr. Kaufer and his wife, Katia sued Target for negligence. The jury discovered that Target was partially liable for Mr. Kaufer's fall and awarded him $250,000 in damages and his wife $30,000 for loss of consortium.
What Needs to be Proven in a Slip, Trip & Fall Case?
The Defendant's Duty: The defendant owned or operated the premises.
Notice: The defendant was aware or should have been aware of the condition that may have harmed the public.
Dangerous Condition: The harmful condition was not considered a "minor" issue.
Damages: The plaintiff sustained injuries because of a dangerous condition.
The victim of a slip and fall might have also shown a degree of negligence in their behavior. Guests to a property are expected to show a reasonable amount of caution when moving through space, and reckless and careless behavior on their part can ruin the grounds for a case.
To win a slip and fall case, lawyers provide evidence to the court that helps to clearly establish negligent behavior exhibited by the property owner.
This evidence can take many forms. A victim will need to show evidence from a doctor that they sustained injuries from their slip and fall incident.
Then, pictures or surveillance video from the crime scene can be used as evidence of a dangerous condition present at the location.
Witness statements can also be a valuable tool in establishing fault in a case. Witness testimonies can help eliminate the possibility of negligent or careless behavior on the part of the victim. Witnesses can also speak about the existence of the dangerous condition and the property owner's awareness of the problem.
The injuries and costs associated with slip and fall cases can be incredibly damaging to one's life. If you've been injured as a result of a dangerous condition on someone else's property, you have a right to compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and more.

Jordan Cove Gets FERC's Rubber-Stamp
jordan_cove_and_north_spit_rena_olson.jpg
As expected, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) granted its conditional approval to the Jordan Cove LNG export terminal proposed for Coos Bay's North Spit on Thursday, March 19. The approval also includes the associated Pacific Connector pipeline, which would carry the gas across the state to the terminal, where it would be liquefied and shipped.
While not insignificant—the project does require federal approval—this is not at all a definitive step. The approval is conditioned on Pembina, the Canadian fossil fuel corporation behind the project, receiving essential permits from the state of Oregon. Even Neil Chatterjee, the Republican-appointed, unswervingly pro-fossil-fuel FERC chair, stated that Jordan Cove's "certification does include provisions to file documentation that it has received all applicable authorizations before construction begins on the pipeline." The question is whether the project will ever receive these necessary authorizations.
Among those authorizations would be those from Oregon's Department of Environmental Quality (under the Clean Water Act); the Department of State Lands (for dredging removal and fill); and the Department of Land Conservation and Development, certifying that the project qualified under the state's Coastal Management Program. DEQ and DLCD denied Jordan Cove permission in no uncertain terms; it was obvious that DSL was also on the verge of doing so when Jordan Cove abruptly withdrew its removal-fill application. Oregon Shores has been heavily engaged in urging these agencies to turn Jordan Cove down.
In order to gain approval under Oregon's Coastal Management Program (CMP), Jordan Cove and Pacific Connector would need not only permits from state agencies, but local approvals under Oregon's land use planning laws. The local jurisdictions involved—Coos County, and the cities of Coos Bay and North Bend—have been eager to grant approvals to the project. However, those approvals are being appealed, more or less across the board. Oregon Shores has four appeals of local decisions pending before the state's Land Use Board of Appeals, and we are intervening in support of the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians on a fifth.
Under the Coastal Zone Management Act, the federal government is required to be consistent with recognized state coastal management plans, which is why DLCD denied certification before and should do so again if state agencies continue to deny permits and/or if our appeals of local land use decisions are successful. The lack of any of these permits would mean that the project did not meet the standards of our CMP, and "federal consistency" under the CZMA should mean that the federal government wouldn't allow it, either. Of course, under the current administration, anything can happen—we are waiting to see whether the Trump administration attempts to ignore federal consistency and push the project through.
On the same day that FERC delivered its decision, Jordan Cove (which is to say, Pembina) appealed the state's denial of CZMA certification to the Secretary of Commerce. This step does exist within the CZMA law, but it is almost never used. The likelihood is that Wilbur Ross, the Trump-appointed secretary and another fossil fuel enthusiast, will grant the appeal. At that point the appeal would move to the courts. Oregon Gov. Kate Brown, who has remained neutral on Jordan Cove, issed a statement today expressing determination to do everything possible to prevent the federal government from assaulting the integrity of Oregon's process.
Another key question concerns the landowners in the pipeline's path. FERC approval is a step toward allowing Pacific Connector to use eminent domain to force landowners to accept a pipeline running across their property, which is vehemently opposed by many property owner's in the pipeline's path.
Impacted landowners, Tribal governments, environmental organizations including Oregon Shores, and other intervenors now have a 30-day window to appeal for a rehearing at FERC. The state of Oregon may also petition FERC for a rehearing.
Over 40,000 people sent comments to FERC opposing Jordan Cove LNG, and hundreds showed up in opposition at public hearings in Coos, Douglas, Jackson, and Klamath counties last summer.
This is a dynamic and constantly changing situation. More developments can be expected soon. Oregon Shores is deeply committed to battling this misbegotten proposal in every possible way.

What busy days in Year 2! We have explored the different areas of Australia, plotted numbers on an unmarked number line and most importantly prepared lovely surprises for Mother's Day.
We really enjoyed our session with Zehra Hick. Sammy's favourite bit was seeing a book that Zehra has not yet finished and he's looking forward to reading it in the summer … 'Flying Lemurs'. Marcus and Felix most enjoyed writing their stories: Marcus wrote about a crocodile who likes kissing children, while Felix's story was about a robber who robbed the queen, was sent to the dungeon, smashed the CCTV camera and broke out – then tried to find a job, but wasn't successful so started robbing again! Savan's story was about a little boy who likes sweets and chocolate … and gobbled up loads all in one go! How wonderful to hear how a visiting author can so inspire the children! Everyone is very excited about their Charlie and the Chocolate Factory costume for next week.

Cellular interactions between endothelial cell (EC) and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC)/macrophages seem to be greatly changed under inflammatory conditions. Although simvastatin could regulate inflammatory transcription factors in EC and VSMC and also could inhibit leukocyte–endothelium interaction, whether it could modulate VSMC/macrophage functions that are induced by tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)–activated EC remained unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of simvastatin on VSMC/macrophage functions, which are induced by TNF-α–activated EC in coculture system in vitro. The results showed that under noncontacting conditions, simvastatin could reduce the proliferation, apoptosis, and TNF-α, IL-6, and vascular endothelial growth factor secretion both in VSMC and macrophage, which is induced by TNF-α–activated EC. And a hypothesis that simvastatin regulates the interactions and the soluble factors between EC and VSMC/macrophages could be drawn. And that might be a potential anti-atherosclerosis mechanism of simvastatin.

Research an institute before you enrol
Thousands of students enter private tertiary education institutions every year - increasingly out of choice - but other times because of limited opportunities in the public sector. As prospective students have always done when deciding on which university to attend, private students must be encouraged to similarly ensure they entrust the right institution with their higher education.
With an estimated 110 000 students registered in private higher education annually, leaving these students without guidance on how to choose quality courses and institutions exacts a significant but rarely recognised toll on the individual, the community and ultimately the country and economy, an education expert warns.
"Many students would already have been exposed to valuable guidance on how to ensure that an institution is registered and its qualifications are accredited, to avoid becoming a victim of unscrupulous operators," says Dr Felicity Coughlan, Director of the Independent Institute of Education, which is responsible for the academic leadership and governance of education and training on more than 20 registered higher education campuses in SA which collectively welcome more than 5 000 new students annually.
But Dr Coughlan notes that once this first safety hurdle has been successfully navigated, prospective students must turn to understanding what (for each individual) would represent a high quality learning experience.
"That will guide you as to what quality indicators you should be looking for," she says.
"Of course, no institution will advertise itself as being of low quality and virtually none will define what quality means to them, so it is up to you to be clear about what you need and want and then look for those attributes in a college.
Dr Coughlan says that:
· It is important to look at a total quality experience assessment – from the condition of the campus to the "intangibles" such as the values and interpersonal skills you will gain from the experience.
· One must also consider the output (e.g. graduation rates; quality of teaching; nature of facilities and number of lectures; learning materials) you get in relation to the input (fees, time and effort).
· A further assessment should be done, of the "value-add", i.e., determine what you would gain from the higher education experience beyond the actual qualification. The "product" you leave with is a qualification, but you also should expect to be better equipped with work related skills and improved interpersonal abilities and a strong sense of citizenship. There may be other things of value that you seek from a qualification and you should ask about these things.
"When considering colleges, it is in your best interest to do thorough research online and offline, looking at an institution's official website and materials, but also at what others have written about the campus," says Coughlan
"You should ask the basic regulatory and quality questions, but then you should begin to explore what is really offered. Ask the person interviewing you to tell you why you should choose their campus, and listen carefully for messages that focus only on "product" or almost exclusively on the student life experience.
"Either extreme may be a reason to be cautious," Coughlan says.

P215:10, 19:2.1 The Perfectors of Wisdom are a specialized creation of the Paradise Trinity designed to personify the wisdom of divinity in the superuniverses. There are exactly seven billion of these beings in existence, and one billion are assigned to each of the seven superuniverses.
P215:11, 19:2.2 In common with their co-ordinates, the Divine Counselors and the Universal Censors, the Perfectors of Wisdom passed through the wisdom of Paradise, of Havona, and except for Divinington, of the Father's Paradise spheres. After these experiences the Perfectors of Wisdom were permanently assigned to the service of the Ancients of Days. They serve neither on Paradise nor on the worlds of the Paradise-Havona circuits; they are wholly occupied with the administration of the superuniverse governments.
P216:1, 19:2.3 Wherever and whenever a Perfector of Wisdom functions, there and then divine wisdom functions. There is actuality of presence and perfection of manifestation in the knowledge and wisdom represented in the doings of these mighty and majestic personalities. They do not reflect the wisdom of the Paradise Trinity; they are that wisdom. They are the sources of wisdom for all teachers in the application of universe knowledge; they are the fountains of discretion and the wellsprings of discrimination to the institutions of learning and discernment in all universes.
P216:2, 19:2.4 Wisdom is twofold in origin, being derived from the perfection of divine insight inherent in perfect beings and from the personal experience acquired by evolutionary creatures. The Perfectors of Wisdom are the divine wisdom of the Paradise perfection of Deity insight. Their administrative associates on Uversa, the Mighty Messengers, Those without Name and Number, and Those High in Authority, when acting together, are the universe wisdom of experience. A divine being can have perfection of divine knowledge. An evolutionary mortal can sometime attain perfection of ascendant knowledge, but neither of these beings alone exhausts the potentials of all possible wisdom. Accordingly, whenever in the conduct of the superuniverse it is desired to achieve the maximum of administrative wisdom, these perfectors of the wisdom of divine insight are always associated with those ascendant personalities who have come up to the high responsibilities of superuniverse authority through the experiential tribulations of evolutionary progression.
P216:3, 19:2.5 The Perfectors of Wisdom will always require this complement of experiential wisdom for the completion of their administrative sagacity. But it has been postulated that a high and hitherto unattained level of wisdom may possibly be achieved by the Paradise finaliters after they are sometime inducted into the seventh stage of spirit existence. If this inference is correct, then would such perfected beings of evolutionary ascent undoubtedly become the most effective universe administrators ever to be known in all creation. I believe that such is the high destiny of finaliters.
P216:4, 19:2.6 The versatility of the Perfectors of Wisdom enables them to participate in practically all of the celestial services of the ascendant creatures. The Perfectors of Wisdom and my order of personality, the Divine Counselors, together with the Universal Censors, constitute the highest orders of beings who may and do engage in the work of revealing truth to the individual planets and systems, whether in their earlier epochs or when settled in light and life. From time to time we all make contact with the service of the ascending mortals, from an initial-life planet on up through a local universe and the superuniverse, particularly the latter.

Q: Jquery AJAX call fails when WebService is hosted on Azure Cloud I am trying to call a webservice which is hosted on my localhost. This AJAX call works for me and I can see the "Authorization" token being sent in the header of the request to the service.
    $.ajax({
        type: method,
        url: serviceUrl,
        beforeSend: function (XMLHttpRequest) { XMLHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Authorization",  Token); },
        contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
        dataType: "json",
        ProcessData: true,
        cache: false,
        success: successHandler,
        error: errorHandler
    });

But this time I try to call the service which is hosted on Azure Cloud and the same AJAX call works but it does not send the header content.I am using fiddler to inspect the header content of the requests. Is there something I can do so that the header has the "Authorization" token?

A: It could possibly be a cross-domain policy restriction. You have to make sure the ajax call and the service are within the same domain or you will have to do a little hacking to get it working.

A: There are security policies at the browser level to prevent cross-domain AJAX calls. There are multiple workarounds for this (such as using XML instead of JSON or this jQuery plugin), but the most "correct" seems to be using JSONP instead of JSON, which I think you can do just by changing the dataType in your AJAX call:
$.ajax({
    //...etc.
    dataType: "jsonp",
    //...etc.
});

If that's not the problem, try adding return true; to your beforeSend handler. The request gets canceled if that returns false, but I don't know what happens if it doesn't return a value at all.

The pirogue is usually propelled by paddles that have one blade or punted with a push pole in shallow water.
Riverboat - Steamboats played a major role in the 19th-century development of the Mississippi River and its tributaries by allowing the practical large-scale transport of passengers and freight both up- and down-river.

songwriting contest canada 2020 2021


Hyderabad: With the increasing dissidence in the party over official candidates, TRS president and caretaker Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao intervened to solve this problem. Mr Chandrasekhar Rao held a teleconference on Thursday with party candidates. KCR told the candidates that it was the candidate's responsibility to resolve the dissidence against them from the party leaders. He asked those candidates who were facing dissidence to discuss with their rivals and solve the problem.
He also directed the candidates to enrol voters in their respective constituencies. He asked them to set up booth level committees at the earliest. He asked the candidates to intensify the campaign. After announcing the 105 candidates, those party leaders who were denied tickets raised their voice against the official candidates. The dissident leaders are conducting meetings with their followers against the party candidates. In some constituencies the dissidence leaders are protesting against official candidates every day. The upcoming elections are crucial to the TRS at a time when the Congress is forming a grand alliance of like-minded parties to defeat the TRS.
The TRS leadership did not expect dissidence within the party after announcing the candidates. Ministers KT Rama Rao and T Harish Rao are holding discussions with dissident leaders and convincing them. After noticing the seriousness of dissidence, Mr Chandrasekhar Rao decided to intervene himself. He had discussions with TRS MLA Nallala Odelu in the dissolved assembly who was denied a ticket from Chennur in Adilabad district.
Odelu who had locked himself inside his home and had threatened to take drastic steps in protest against the TRS for denying him a ticket, has turned loyalist to the party after he held discussions with Mr Chandrasekara Rao. Mr Chandrasekhara Rao told the candidates to resolve the dissidence in their constituencies; and if they failed he would intervene to solve the issue. TRS sources said if in any constituency, the party candidate was facing severe opposition from within the party, the high command could have a rethink and change the candidate at the last minute.


Cover of "History is Made at Night."Growing up in NYC in the 1970s, the images of the music scene inside, outside, and around CBGBs, are permanently imprinted on this reporter's mind.
Photo: Lori GreenbergBut for those of you who weren't there (or for the many of you who were, and maybe due to some illegal substances, really don't remember much of it), be grateful for David Godlis, who captured this time period vividly, artfully and emotionally.
Godlis, signing books. Photo: Lori Greenberg.Godlis is a legendary photographer (you've probably seen his work, even if you haven't realized it). Often compared to Brassai, who photographed Paris in the '20s, he has poetically chronicled nightlife and street photography for the past 40 years. The recently-released History is Made at Night showcases, in over 100 photos, exactly what the title describes: the late-night world of the streets between 1976 and 1979, with focus on that legendary period at CBGBs.
Also check out Boogie's recent interview with Godlis.

Russian Taliban Payments Underscore Moscow's Afghan Challenges
By Richard Weitz
September 3, 2020, the CACI Analyst
The revelations that Russian intelligence may have hired criminals to attack NATO forces in Afghanistan underscores the complex nature of Moscow's Afghan policies. Though what happened or why remains disputed, the reports highlight the Russian government's weak tools for shaping the future of Afghanistan despite the country's pivotal place in Russia's Eurasian agenda.

Russia and Turkey: Behind the Armenia-Azerbaijan Clashes?
By Avinoam Idan
August 31, 2020, the CACI Analyst
The violent gunfire that erupted between Armenia and Azerbaijan in July appears to have no connection with the ongoing conflict over the Nagorno-Karabakh region. This event took place far from Nagorno-Karabakh, in the Tovuz region. The strategic importance of the Tovuz region is its location on the energy export pipelines route from the Caspian Sea to Turkey and Western markets. It would seem that the players involved here are none other than Russia and Turkey, in active conflict vis-a-vis the war in Libya. The gunfire can be interpreted as a Russian message to Turkey, regarding its energy supply security from the Caspian Sea. If so, this is not the first time Russia has used Armenia to further its interests in the region.
Russia Goes Bounty Hunting in Afghanistan
July 8, 2020, the CACI Analyst
The revelations that Moscow paid Taliban warriors bounties to kill U.S., British, and other allied soldiers in Afghanistan is already generating a scandal in the United States. Yet for those who closely monitor Russian foreign policy in Central Asia and Afghanistan, this represents a particularly grisly escalation of policy but not a change in strategy. Moscow has long been determined to enhance its position with the Taliban and accelerate the ejection of U.S. forces from Afghanistan, which it regards as a threat to its position in Central Asia and to Russia. In Moscow's imagination, the presence of several U.S. and/or NATO airbases in Afghanistan could strike Russian targets in Central Asia. Moreover, Russia has consistently expressed a visceral reaction to the presence of foreign military forces, especially Western ones, in and around Central Asia.
Emerging Room for Rapport Between Sokhumi Tbilisi
By Emil Avdaliani
June 18, 2020, the CACI Analyst
Georgia's breakaway region of Abkhazia is undergoing a deep political crisis coupled with troubles in its relationship with Russia. This potentially opens for a rapprochement with the government in Tbilisi and Abkhaz politicians have already come out with some bold statements. Although Abkhazia's continual dependence on Russian financial and military support will keep the region under the Kremlin's control, the emerging trends also suggest that tensions between Russia and Abkhazia will continue and grow.
Chechnya's Kadyrov Clashes with Russian PM Mishustin
By Emil A. Souleimanov and Huseyn Aliyev
At an April 6 ministerial meeting, Russia's newly appointed Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin made a remark to the governors of Russia's provinces, who in the preceding weeks introduced a ban on leaving and entering their respective regions in order to curb covid-19 infections, advising them "not to confuse regional powers with federal authorities." As Chechnya's strongman Ramzan Kadyrov had introduced a ban on the republic's physical contacts with the outside world in the end of March, Kadyrov took this general statement personally. Soon, Kadyrov expressed concern that the prime minister was being "misled." The conflict marks what some believe is the beginning of a troublesome relationship between Chechnya's leader and Russia's newly appointed prime minister.

Coronavirus blues
This must be what war is like, when the world suddenly flips into something so alien that your mind does somersaults all the time, trying to catch up. At night, you sleep and wake and sleep again, and every time you wake you think this can't be happening in this country, this can't be true. And then you wake, as daylight finally streams through the curtains, and you switch on the news and you realise, with yet another punch to your stomach, that it is.
