'Pharmacists are at the frontline of health delivery.'
What Deputy Prime Minister and Nationals leader Michael McCormack said at his APP doorstop…
"Pharmacists are at the frontline of health delivery, they're at the frontline of health service," said Michael McCormack, who is also Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development.
"I understand the important role that they play – we all need, at some stage or another, to use a pharmacist and I'll always fight for those small pharmacies. They're great small businesses, they're not dispensing medicines at bulk rates just to get goods out the door, to improve their profit lines," said Minister McCormack.
"They're the people who, if you need a compression stocking, that they're willing to do it free of charge. They're the people who are willing, late at night, to give somebody a blood pressure test and they do it free of charge, they do it willingly. Because they're part of the community, they're part of the families and the fabric of the community."

Charley says VIDEO! Mandy Capristo – The Way I Like It
When I first got into Monrose, the German girl trio were just about to launch their 'I Am' album. Little did I know that all this time I had been missing out on 'Strictly Physical'. 'Strictly Physical' was the group's second album and contained the epic 'Hot Summer' which went on to be covered by artists from Australia to Korea, it had fingerlickingly delicious electropop in the form of 'Dangerous', heartbreaking ballads like 'What You Don't Know', the Olive's 'You're Not Alone' sampling 'Just Like That', the self-referencing and attitude-drenched 'Monrose Theme'… Basically, it was one of the greatest girl group albums the world would ever be treated to.
When late 2010 Mandy, Senna and Bahar announced they were going to part ways, it was a sad, sad day for pop fans around the globe. Now, finally, we have something to fill that Monrose shaped void in our lives. Mandy Capristo, who at just 22 has been on the pop scene for 6 years now, has just unleashed her very first solo video onto the internet. 'The Way I Like It' is a slow burning electropop tune that still manages to pack a mean punch. The video contrasts an abandoned setting to Mandy's stunning gorgeousness. Yes, perhaps I'm getting a bit hyperbolic about this, but if 'The Way I Like It' is an indication of what her upcoming album 'Grace' is going to offer then sign me up!
'The Way I Like It' by Mandy Capristo is available on Spotify and iTunes.
'Grace' by Mandy Capristo is released April 27th 2012.
'Strictly Physical' by Monrose is available on Spotify and iTunes.

Charley says SONG! Eva Simons – I Don't Like You
Eva Simons has unleashed her new single "I Don't Like You", which is set to follow in the successful footsteps of her Afrojack collaboration "Take Over Control". Behind this club banger are the capable hands of Zedd, German producer Anton Zaslavski whose Lady Gaga remix was featured on the Deluxe Edition of "Born This Way".
Eva Simons first popped onto the music scene in 2004 when she was a contestant on Popstars: The Rivals in The Netherlands. She was voted into girlgroup Raffish who went on to release one album and three singles before disbanding.
Eva started working on music of her own and then finally in 2009 she stepped into the spotlight again. First as the resident singer on Dutch Dancing With The Stars, then as a popstar in her own right.
Her debut single "Silly Boy" leaked as a rumoured Rihanna & Lady Gaga duet. By the time it became clear that Eva was behind the track, it had picked up so much steam that she was signed to EMI for an international release.
Despite recording a truckload of tracks which (as we learned from the leaks) were all kinds of awesome, the project stalled and Eva parted ways with her label.
Now, one of the most promising popstars of The Netherlands has finally returned, with a brand new deal with Interscope to her name.
If "I Don't Like You" is anything to go by, those years of waiting won't have been in vain!
"I Don't Like You" by Eva Simons will be available online as of March 26th.
The HalfStyle remix of "I Don't Like You" by Eva Simons is available on Soundcloud.

A Zecchino d'Oro (magyarul: Aranytallér) egy olasz televíziós műsor, amit nemzetközi gyerekdal fesztiválnak neveznek. A műsor az 1960-as évek után született olasz gyerekek legnézettebb műsora, számos a fesztiválon énekelt gyerekdal, a mai napig ismert. A műsort az olaszok kulturális örökségüknek tekintik, amit még az UNESCO is támogat. Híres dalok: Volevo un gatto nero, Il coccodrillo come fa?, Il caffè della Peppina, Quarantaquattro gatti.

Története

A műsor ötletét Cino Tortorella színész adta, aki Zurlì, il mago del giovedì című gyerekműsorban a címszereplő volt. A Triennale di Milano múzeumban egy rendezvényen találkozott vállalkozókat, akiket kért, hogy fektessenek be pénzt egy gyermekeknek szánt műsorba. Tortorella egy Sanremói Fesztiválhoz hasonló műsorra gondolt. A Zecchino d'Oro 1959. szeptember 24-én került először adásba.

Az első műsort Pinokkiónak szentelték, mivel a műsor címét a meséből vették: Pinokkió elhíreszteli, hogy az elültetett aranytallérokból aranyfa fog kinőni.

1961-től a műsort Bolognaban forgatják, amit a ferences-rendi Antoniano egyesület támogat.

1963-ig a részt vevő gyerekek háttérvokálok nélkül énekeltek, ám ettől az évtől az Antoniano egyesület Piccolo Coro dell'Antoniano gyermekkórusa adja a dalok kíséretét, amit Mariele Ventre vezényelt. A fesztivál dalai ettől az évtől jelennek meg lemezen.

1965-ben a műsort az Antoniano által fenntartott színházban kialakított televíziós stúdióban forgatták. A fesztivál ez évi dalaiért VI. Pál pápa is köszönetet mondott.

1969-ben a műsort először Eurovízióban közvetítették, amivel rekord nézettséget ért el: 150 millióan nézték, ennél a Holdra szállás volt csak nézettebb. A siker ellenére a RAI 1973-ban a műsor időtartamát lecsökkentette egy napossá. Ebben az évben Tortorella szerepelt utoljára Mago Zurlíként. A műsorban elhangzó dalokhoz már nem volt élő zenekari kíséret. A dalok zenei alapjait előre felvették innentől kezdve.

1976-tól a műsor nemzetközivé vált: 7 olasz és 7 külföldi dal versengett egymással. Ebben az évben bevezettek a legszebb olasz és legszebb külföldi dalnak járó két Zecchino d'Argento (Ezüsttallér) díjat. Az adás nemzetközivé válásában még az UNICEF is segített.

Az 1991-es műsor után a bevételek egyrészét jótékonysági célokra fordítják, így jött létre a Fiore della Solidarietà (Szolidaritás Virága) nevű alap, amely többek közt a délszláv háborúban áldozattá vált gyerekeknek épített kórházat.

1995-ben volt utoljára karnagy Mariele Ventre, aki a műsor után nem sokkal 56 évesen mellrákban meghalt. Helyét Sabrina Simoni vette át.

2006-ban volt látható a műsorban utoljára Topo Gigio, a kesztyűbáb egér, helyét Geronimo Stilton vette át.

2016-ban a Rai döntése nyomán a műsort négy szombat este közvetítik.

An Analysis of the Film This is Spinal Tap
#Entertainment #Film Analysis #Movies
This is Spinal Tap has earned the title of a work of art. The film flawlessly emulated the cliché British rock bunch. However, it imitated the documentaries that the groups are so frequently appeared on. The film has an assortment of things letting it all out, three of them being: generalizations, entertainment, and prodigies for scholars. Spinal Tap is a British rock group depicted in this film. This band is similar to the other rock collectives: insane, incredible artists, and talk with an English inflection. The thing that makes them emerge from whatever is left of the British groups is the cold hard truth. Spinal Tap is only a menial band made up of mature individuals who are frantically attempting to cling to what little notoriety they used to have.
Moreover, this motion picture calls attention to two stories: the story of the rock band Spinal Tap and their beliefs, trusts, accepts, and fears. After the film brings up these modest changes, the band begins to concentrate on the snicker component promptly. The greatest snicker in the second half of the film is gathered affectionately out of numerous little components. It includes a task to set originator Polly Deutsch (played by Anjelica Huston) to manufacture an imitation of one of Stone's elements.
Satire in This is Spinal Tap in Portrayal of Rock Music and the Mass Media
This is Spinal Tap gives a vivid representation of the rock culture and way of life in the 1980s, despite acting naturally, and outright farce of the development. The film shows wacky high jinks and endeavored trip to superstardom of the anecdotal bandmates, Nigel Tufnel, David St. Hubbins, Viv Savage, and David Small. Ransack Reiner stars as anecdotal documentarian Marty Di Bergi. The character summarizes the band's previous musical tests and achievements in soul-rock, leading one-on-one meetings with every member to further catch the persona's quintessence.
The group's specialty is riding the coattails of the New Wave of British heavy metal scene, following in the strides of the leap forward acts, including Judas Priest, Motörhead, Black Sabbath, and Iron Maiden (Campbell 20). The appearance of British metal's rising prevalence in the United States serves as the premise, witnessing the "soul of the times" (Campbell 21). The members of Spinal Tap are portrayed by American artists faking British articulations, which adds another level of strangeness to this mockumentary. The group is given the title of "England's Loudest Rock Band," further contributing to the preposterousness of the persona Rob Reiner is mocking in this film. Substantial metal stage tricks are additionally jabbed fun at in the movie. Spinal Tap's humorously fizzled live execution endeavors, where incalculable misfortunes cause the band's fantastic and strange thoughts for stage configuration to end in a fiasco.
Spinal Tap is a parody of the stage exhibitions of many 1980s solid metal groups. One of the band drummers shakes out so hard that he suddenly combusts. The bandmates note that there has been no lasting drummer as all the past ones have ended the same due to over-the-top circumstances. Such a scene orders the exemplification of the 1980s hard shake and overwhelming metal star, some of which were excessive, noisy, unusual, and absurd. These qualities made 1980s rock music a capable constrain universally, particularly in the United States.
The characters of This is Spinal Tap are not typical. They are overwhelming spoofs of each generalization of the solid metal and shake classification, with everybody serving a particular part. Starting from the excessively macho lead guitarist Nigel Trufel, with his phallic utilization of the guitar and his complete absence of skills to use his instrument, to bassist Derek Smalls, who tries and fails to encapsulate the noiseless scholarly figure of speech frequently connected with rock bassists. However, a few crowds felt the band was genuine because of the stellar acting of the bandmates. The premise of this authenticity was due to the way that the film was ad-libbed, with the on-screen characters just having a harsh framework of what was going to happen in the scene. Therefore, the viewers can feel that band members are genuine because of their real responses to the inquiries and circumstances.
With the absence of a strict story and script structure found in other Hollywood movies, the characters of This is Spinal Tap appears to be more in the vein of merely typical discussion. For example, the episode when Rob Reiner's Marty Di Bergi gets some information about Nigel's amp that goes "up to 11." Di Bergi asks why Nigel could not just have quite recently "made ten louder," and Nigel stops for a minute, considering this thought, before timidly and immaturely answering, "yet it goes up to 11" (This is Spinal Tap 39:00-41:00). However, before his reply, the machine gear pieces in the head of Christopher Guest's character gradually moving, and Nigel appears somewhat more human (Campbell 23). His reaction is still comedic and whimsical; however, as he slowly attempts to assemble the pieces, he appears to be more similar to a genuine person. On the off chance that the script was more controlled, and Nigel reacted even a second speedier with the same line, it would not have the same level of pure genuineness.
The characters from The is Spinal Tap are extraordinarily similar to Huge Edie and Little Edie from Albert and David Maysles' Gray Gardens. However, at first glance, both gatherings appear to be too cartoonish to be in any way genuine; the way they act and collaborate with each different makes a layer of trustworthiness. Although both the Beales and Spinal Tap both act in a way that no sane person could ever consider to be adequate, they turn out to be genuine. Viewers can take after their manners of thinking and their ineptitudes and disappointments to comprehend ordinary considerations. The Spinal Tap band walks the barely recognizable difference along these lines and investigates the delightful limbo amongst dream and reality.
Another entertaining area of the film is fake advertising. While it is utilized for comedic impact and mirrors the new, amazingly supremacist society shaped under the C.S.A., these ads are splendid in their strategies. These ads include Snuggie-style infomercials promoting a tracker neckline for one's workers with the same repulsive acting and appealing models similar to different infomercials, or an inconceivably macho business a cigarette brand called "Niggerhair," including footage of cowhands and stallions in an entirely open plan. These advertisements consummately reflect the way of life of the C.S.A. and false ads by only giving the same footage little contrasts.
Watching Lips and Robb Reiner break down in the film discussing their persevering enthusiasm for the band is a touching, unsettling scene; their tears amid the last rose function are genuine. Therefore, viewers trust both Lips and Robb Reiner since they indeed have been propagating an elaborate, multidecade deception and are ignoring their heads at this moment.
Through the use of satire, the film is fascinating to watch and follow. Satire has made the movie direct public awareness regarding some matters that cannot be easily portrayed mostly to the public. Moreover, satire entertains the audience, thus enabling the movie to realize the film's objective since entrainment is one of the objectives of watching movies.

Have You Ever Experienced a Life-Changing Event?
Occasionally in life we find ourselves facing a moment that is a life changing and challenging experience. It can be full of joy like seeing your first-born granddaughter for the first time or getting your first job after college. It can also be unhappy like losing a loved one or a job. All of these will alter your life direction in large and small ways.
Throughout his ministry, Jesus initiated quite a few amazing life-changing events, especially through his miracles. One is when Jesus encountered the blind, beggar Bartimaeus.
Bartimaeus was chained to his blindness and lived his life on the sidelines begging. Bystanders passing him rarely noticed Bartimaeus begging. He was invisible to them. One day Jesus arrives triggering a huge commotion with noisy crowds scrambling to get near him.
Startled Bartimaeus heard the noises but couldn't determine what created the confusion. When Bartimaeus discovered it was Jesus, he became excited because he had heard about this potential long-awaited messiah and his power to heal.
Immediately Bartimaeus began shouting Jesus' name. The crowd tried to quiet him down but Bartimaeus is persistent and yelled louder. Jesus stopped and called Bartimaeus to him asking, "What do you want me to do for you?" Bartimaeus knew precisely what he wanted. "I want to see," he said. Immediately Jesus restored his sight.
Bartimaeus experienced this life-changing event and was never the same again. Imagine his seeing through his teary eyes a blue sky with puffy clouds, green trees swaying in a breeze, and the warm rays of a brilliant sun he could now see. His life would never be the same again.
Scripture says Bartimaeus received his sight and afterwards became one of Jesus' followers. Jesus said to him "…your faith has saved you" because Jesus saw the heart of Bartimaeus and discovered what no other passersby perceived – a man of faith longing to be released from his darkness. When he did, Bartimaeus saw the light, Jesus, he sought through all those isolated years. His faith helped him choose to follow that healing light.
Recently in the parish, I witnessed the life-changing events of two babies. I baptized them in cleansing waters made sacred by the dying and rising of Jesus, their savior. On this day, as on the day of our baptisms, Jesus, the word made flesh, removed the stain of their first parents' sin. He reclaimed them as God's adopted children and changed their destiny forever. They would inherit heaven and live forever in God's household. And, they slept through it all. The most amazing life-changing experience they would ever have, and it happened in their slumber.
However, Jesus doesn't care. He loves us all. He walked among us, and suffered so that everyone, Bartimaeus, the two newly baptized infants, you and me and everyone baptized would have this life changing experience.
Bartimaeus may have the best response. He never stopped wanting Jesus even when they tried to quiet him. Jesus helped him see and when Bartimaeus saw Jesus, he chooses to follow him. That's the life-changing response Jesus seeks from us all!


Last month I moved to our 20 acre farm; began living in an abode the size of my old bedroom; started cooking, showering and going to the toilet outside in rain, hail and shine; and traded my lululemon pants for an akubra hat, overalls and bunstones. My new title - Christina the farm yogini!
It has been challenging to let go of the past. Moving away from family, friends, students, not to mention home comforts. My mind has dappled in the desired to cling to what was familiar and there's been moments where I have thought this is all too much.
On the other spectrum I've noticed myself dreaming about the future. 'It will be great when ...' when the house gets started, when we have running water, when the toilet is undercover, etc.
Instead of turning to the past, or turning to the future, one can turn inwards. Inwards to the Truth. The Truth can only be found in the now and it's yoga that gives this gift. The gift of presence and Reality.
For this month, day and very second, I wish you experience what is, fully embraced by Reality, Truth and Yoga.


When the weather begins to pick up, there is one place our mind immediately wanders – the garden!
There is nothing more peaceful than sitting in your own back garden, relaxing in nature, enjoying a bit of vitamin D from the sun bearing down, and enjoying your own space. Because of that, it's important to make that green space your own, but how can you do that when cash is a little tight?
Well, there are plenty of ways you can upgrade your garden on a budget, and it really just takes a little creative thinking. See if any of these ideas could help you transform your garden into a haven of peace and tranquilly this summer!
People tend to get bored quite easily with furniture, especially that of the garden variety, such as chairs and garden tables, so it's always a good idea to keep an eye on second hand websites, or advertisements in the local newspaper, to see if you can grab any bargains. It doesn't have to be new to be useful, and you can always clean things up to look as good as new!
If you have any house chairs or anything that you could reuse in the garden, think about switching it up a little. All you need to do is make sure things are weather-proofed, which is easily done, and grab a few fabric covers to brighten things up. You could also make sure of any spare material you have, e.g. old curtains, to make chair covers etc. Get creative!
You don't have to buy an all singing, all dancing, expensive BBQ to be able to have fun summer parties and dinner in the garden! A cheap BBQ will be just as functional and gives you the perfect excuse to eat al fresco, or something to keep warm around when the weather turns slightly chilly, but you still want to grab some fresh air.
Early in the year, think about your garden and what you want in it, and get planting flowers and shrubs! If you design where you plant them carefully, you could plan yourself a real designer space. It's not hard to find information on what goes where and when, a quick search online will give you information, or a book from the library if you want to do it the old fashioned way! You could even plant your flowers in funky pots, such as old kitchen jugs you no longer want – make it quirky!
If you have a paved section, why not grass it over, and vice versa? A slight expansion may be all it needs to make your garden feel different and totally new to you.
Don't try and do it all at once if you're struggling for cash, you can easily upgrade your garden on a budget in stages, but with these handy tips, you'll see how easy it can be!

The breeding system and demography of the Transvaal Sesame-bush, Sesamothamnus lugardii (Pedaliaceae)
Bijl_Alison_2019.pdf (4.243Mb)
Bijl, Alison.
The aim of this research was to assess the breeding system, pollination relationship and demography of the Transvaal Sesame-bush, Sesamothamnus lugardii N. E. Br. Ex Stapf. (Pedaliaceae). S. lugardii is an arid savanna succulent shrub which can be found throughout Zimbabwe, southern Botswana and in northern South Africa, where it is anecdotally thought to be rare. Two populations of S. lugardii were assessed in Limpopo, South Africa. The floral traits of S. lugardii suggest that it is specialised for pollination by long-tongued hawkmoths. The flowers bloom in the evening, are large, sweetly scented and pale in colour. The corolla tubes are very long (ca. 10 cm) and narrow. Very long-tongued hawkmoths (Agrius convolvuli) were found to be the only visitors capable of accessing the nectar at the base of the S. lugardii corolla tubes while foraging and simultaneously interacting with the reproductive structures, successfully pollinating the flowers. S. lugardii is an obligate outcrosser, dependent on A. convolvuli hawkmoths for sexual reproduction. The high-risk traits of the S. lugardii breeding system, namely pollinator specialisation and obligate out-crossing, could render S. lugardii vulnerable to extinction. Predation of flowers by scarab beetles in the study population at Mapungubwe National Park resulted in low fruit set. At Morongwa Private Safari Lodge florivory was negligible and fruit set was higher. In both study populations, S lugardii was dominant in patches across the landscape, but only a small proportion of the numerous plants observed were seedlings. Little is known about the population dynamics of S. lugardii, but the absence of seedlings suggests a potentially vulnerable demography. The large shrubs were heavily impacted by meso- and mega-herbivores, but are resilient to herbivory, as they are capable of bark recovery and epicormic resprouting. However, the ever-increasing numbers of large herbivores at Mapungubwe could reach a critical threshold beyond which the populations of S. lugardii lose their resilience, putting them at risk of local extirpation. The number of seedlings in the populations at Mapungubwe decreased between an initial study conducted in 2005 and the recent assessment in 2014. This may be due to sporadic recruitment, but could also indicate a demographic bottleneck limiting seedling establishment. The low-risk traits associated with demography, namely resilience through longevity and vigorous resprouting, offset the high-risk traits by buffering the populations from decline during periods of reproductive failure. The environment in the study populations at present favours the continued survival of S. lugardii, despite the slow population turnover and low rate of reproductive success. Should the environmental conditions become less favourable for S. lugardii, then the extinction risk could greatly increase over a short period of time, and could even result in local extirpation.

Jay Nichols to depart AXIS, Ekberg to head reinsurance on interim basis
14th February 2017 - Author: Artemis
Jay Nichols has resigned from his position as CEO of AXIS Re, the reinsurance division of AXIS Capital Holdings Limited, a role that has seen him develop third-party capital strategies at the firm as it adapted to the changing market.
Nichols will remain with AXIS in a transitional role until the 31st March, and Jan Ekberg will succeed hims as Interim CEO of AXIS Re. Ekberg has been with AXIS since 2004, most recently in the role of President and Chief Underwriting Officer of AXIS Re Europe, will report directly to AXIS Capital President and Chief Executive Officer Albert Benchimol.
"On behalf of AXIS, we would like to thank Jay for all he has done for our company. When Jay joined AXIS, we introduced a plan to strengthen our reinsurance business and broaden our risk-funding sources through high-quality partnerships," commented Benchimol on Nichols pending departure. "Over the past five years we have made significant progress and AXIS Re is a global reinsurance leader, well-positioned against the backdrop of a structural shift in the reinsurance industry. We have also established AXIS as a strategic partner to respected third party capital providers. With this solid foundation in place, Jay has decided that he would like to leave to take on new challenges. We are deeply appreciative of Jay's leadership and wish him the absolute best."
"When I joined AXIS Re, we set a plan to profitably grow the reinsurance business, improve our analytical capabilities and expand into strategic capital partnerships to match the right risk with the right capital. I am grateful for what we have accomplished in all areas of the reinsurance business and I have been honored to lead such a talented and committed group for the past five years," Nichols added. "I've very deeply enjoyed working with my team, my colleagues across AXIS, and being a part of the Company's leadership. While there is still more work to be done, now is a good time for a transition and I leave with the confidence that AXIS Re is well-positioned to succeed and in very capable hands."
Ekberg has over 40 years of re/insurance market experience, over 20 of which involved managing underwriting businesses. in his time at AXIS he helped to establish AXIS Re Europe as a leading international reinsurance firm. Ekberg led the Property Risk team and the Engineering team as well while at AXIS.
Nichols has a track record for being open to and embracing alternative reinsurance capital sources, with the AXIS Ventures unit established during his tenure.
Total return reinsurance vehicle Harrington Re was also developed and launched during Nichols tenure and the re/insurer has a stated aim to further develop its strategic and third-party capital activities in the future.

Former US Vice President candidate calls for economic – based model of immigration
Posted on November 22, 2013 | Last Updated on November 24, 2020
The former candidate for Vice President Paul Ryan has announced at a conference that the US government wants to move from the current family-based model of immigration to economic-based model of immigration. Mr Ryan told the Wall Street Journal's CEO Council conference that this would require a 'step-by-step approach' and possibly as many as 'seven or eight different pieces of legislation.
As far as the president Obama is concerned he has stated that he is ready to support such kind of approach as long as it addresses the matter of the 11,5 million illegal immigrants that live in the United States and find an appropriate and fair solution that gives them a clear path to citizenship.
The beginning of the reform started in March 2013 when a group of eight senators four Republicans and four Democrats created a new bill that contains the following measures; An increase of $4.5bn in spending on border security, a clear pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants living in the country. An increase in the number of H-1B ' speciality occupation' temporary work visas granted each year from 85,000 annually to a maximum of about 200,000 annually.
The senate that is controlled by the Democratic Party has passed the bill. In order to become a law, it must pass through the House of Representatives as well, which is currently under the control of the republicans. While many of the Republicans agree with President Obama that the immigration system is broken many of them do not agree on the way it should be fixed. The republicans do not agree that the illegal immigrants should be given a path to citizenship because they think that this way people will be encouraged to break the law in order to enter the territory of the USA.

Students in Kraemer Family Library were treated to a respite from studying for finals, thanks to a handful of Visual and Performing Arts students and seniors from the MacKenzie Place retirement community.
From 10 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. May 4, students from Joye Cook-Levy's VAPA 1050 course entered the usually quiet library and started walking from table to table asking students if they had five minutes to spare to listen to a quick story. Participants sat on mats more reminiscent of a kindergarden classroom than a college campus and listened to popular stories read by seniors from the MacKenzie Place retirement community.
According to Cook-Levy, lecturer, Department of Visual and Performing Arts Educational Theatre and Outreach, the "intergenerational flashmob" was the community-based arts and education course's final project.
Stories included an excerpt from "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," a Marvel Comic Book, Dr. Seuss, and a Mo Willems book.
What a marvelous idea for the students and the seniors.

The model Certificate of Independence and model Certificate of Compliance for qualified trusts are codified in appendixes A and B to 5 CFR part 2634. Appendix C of 5 CFR 2634 provides the Privacy Act Statement and Public Burden Statement for the model certificates. Copies of the ten qualified trust model documents are available on OGE's Web site, www.oge.gov. Electronic copies of these documents may also be obtained, without charge, by contacting Mr. Ledvina. The Office of Government Ethics intends to submit, after this first round notice and comment period, all twelve qualified SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00059 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 trust model certificates and model documents described below (all of which are included under OMB paperwork control number 3209–0007) for a three-year extension of approval by OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35). At that time, OGE will publish a second paperwork notice in the Federal Register to inform the public and the agencies. The current paperwork approval for the model certificates and model trust documents, last granted by OMB in 2013, is scheduled to expire at the end of November 2016. OGE is proposing no changes to the twelve qualified trust certificates and model documents at this time. OGE is the supervising ethics office for the executive branch of the Federal Government under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 (EIGA). Presidential nominees to executive branch positions subject to Senate confirmation and any other executive branch officials may seek OGE approval for EIGA qualified blind or diversified trusts as one means to be used to avoid conflicts of interest. OGE is the sponsoring agency for the model certificates and model trust documents for qualified blind and diversified trusts of executive branch officials set up under section 102(f) of the Ethics in Government Act, 5 U.S.C. app. § 102(f), and OGE's implementing financial disclosure regulations at subpart D of 5 CFR part 2634. The various model certificates and model trust documents are utilized by OGE and settlors, trustees and other fiduciaries in establishing and administering these qualified trusts. There are two categories of information collection requirements that OGE plans to submit for renewed paperwork approval, each with its own related reporting model certificates or model trust documents which are subject to paperwork review and approval by OMB. The OGE regulatory citations for these two categories, together with identification of the forms used for their implementation, are as follows: i.

The communications formats and the confidentiality agreements (items ii.(A), (I) and (J) above), once completed, would not be available to the public because they contain sensitive, confidential information. All the other completed model trust certificates and model trust documents (except for any trust provisions that relate to the testamentary disposition of trust assets) are retained and made publicly available based upon a proper request under EIGA (by filling out an OGE Form 201 access form) until the periods for retention of all other reports (usually the OGE Form 278 Public Financial Disclosure Reports) of the individual establishing the trust have lapsed (generally six years after the filing of the last other report). See 5 CFR 2634.603(g)(2) of OGE's executive branch financial disclosure regulation. The U.S. Office of Government Ethics administers the qualified trust program for the executive branch. At the present time, there are no active filers using the trust model certificates and documents. However, OGE intends to submit to OMB a request for extension of approval for two reasons. First, under OMB's implementing regulations for the Paperwork Reduction Act, at 5 CFR 1320.3(c)(4)(i), any recordkeeping, reporting or disclosure requirement contained in a sponsoring agency rule of general applicability is deemed to meet the minimum threshold of ten or more persons. Second, OGE does anticipate possible limited use of these forms during the forthcoming three-year period 2016–2019. Therefore, the estimated burden figures, representing branchwide implementation of the forms, will remain the same as previously reported by OGE in its prior VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:22 Mar 03, 2016 Jkt 238001 first and second round paperwork renewal notice for the trust forms in 2013 and 2014 (77 FR 76293–76294 (December 27, 2012) and 78 FR 40144– 40146 (December 1, 2009)). The estimate is based on the amount of time imposed on a trust administrator or private representative. i. Trust Certificates: A. Certificate of Independence: Total filers (executive branch): 5; private citizen filers (100%): 5; private citizen burden hours (20 minutes/certificate): 2. B. Certificate of Compliance: Total filers (executive branch): 10; private citizen filers (100%): 10; private citizen burden hours (20 minutes/certificate): 3; and ii. Model Qualified Trust Documents: A. Blind Trust Communications: Total users (executive branch): 5; private citizen users (100%): 5; communications documents (private citizens): 25 (based on an average of five communications per user, per year); private citizen burden hours (20 minutes/communication): 8. B. Model Qualified Blind Trust: Total users (executive branch): 2; private citizen users (100%): 2; private citizen burden hours (100 hours/model): 200. C. Model Qualified Diversified Trust: Total users (executive branch): 1; private citizen users (100%): 1; private citizen burden hours (100 hours/model): 100. D–H. Of the five remaining model qualified trust documents: Total users (executive branch): 2; private citizen users (100%): 2; private citizen burden hours (100 hours/model): 200. I–J. Of the two model confidentiality agreements: Total users (executive branch): 1; private citizen users (100%): 1; private citizen burden hours (50 hours/agreement): 50. However, the total annual reporting hour burden on filers themselves is zero and not the 563 hours estimated above because OGE's estimating methodology reflects the fact that all respondents hire private trust administrators or other private representatives to set up and maintain the qualified blind and diversified trusts. Respondents themselves, typically incoming private citizen Presidential nominees, therefore incur no hour burden. The estimated total annual cost burden to respondents resulting from the collection of information is $1,000,000. Those who use the model documents for guidance are private trust administrators or other private representatives hired to set up and maintain the qualified blind and diversified trusts of executive branch officials who seek to establish such qualified trusts. The cost burden figure is based primarily on OGE's knowledge PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 11567 of the typical trust administrator fee structure (an average of 1 percent of total assets) and OGE's experience with administration of the qualified trust program. The $1,000,000 annual cost figure is based on OGE's estimate of an average of five possible active trusts anticipated to be under administration for each of the next two years with combined total assets of $100,000,000. However, OGE notes that the $1,000,000 figure is a cost estimate for the overall administration of the trusts, only a portion of which relates to information collection and reporting. For want of a precise way to break out the costs directly associated with information collection, OGE is continuing to report to OMB the full $1,000,000 estimate for paperwork clearance purposes. Public comment is invited on each aspect of the model qualified trust certificates and model trust documents, and underlying regulatory provisions, as set forth in this notice, including specific views on the need for and practical utility of this set of collections of information, the accuracy of OGE's burden estimate, the potential for enhancement of quality, utility and clarity of the information collected, and the minimization of burden (including the use of information technology). Comments received in response to this notice will be summarized for, and may be included with, the OGE request for extension of the OMB paperwork approval for the set of the various existing qualified trust model certificates, the model communications package, and the model trust documents. The comments will also become a matter of public record. Approved: February 29, 2016. Walter M. Shaub, Jr., Director, Office of Government Ethics.

Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB
Review; Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Unmodified Qualified
Trust Model Certificates and Model Trust Documents
AGENCY: Office of Government Ethics (OGE).
SUMMARY: The U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE) is publishing this
first round notice and seeking comment on the twelve executive branch
OGE model certificates and model documents for qualified trusts. OGE
intends to submit these forms to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval of a three-year extension under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35). OGE is
proposing no changes to these forms at this time.
DATES: Written comments by the public and the agencies on this proposed
extension are invited and must be received on or before May 3, 2016.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments to OGE on this paperwork notice by
any of the following methods:
Email: usoge@oge.gov. Include reference to ``Qualified trust model
certificates and model trust documents paperwork comment'' in the
subject line of the message.
Fax: 202-482-9237.
Mail, Hand Delivery/Courier: U.S. Office of Government Ethics,
Suite 500, 1201 New York Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20005-3917,
Attention: Paul D. Ledvina, Agency Clearance Officer.
Instructions: All comments, including attachments and other
supporting materials, will become part of the public record and subject
to public disclosure. Comments may be posted on OGE's Web site,
www.oge.gov. Sensitive personal information, such as account numbers or
Social Security numbers, should not be included. Comments generally
will not be edited to remove any identifying or contact information.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Ledvina at the U.S. Office of
Government Ethics; telephone: 202-482-9247; TTY: 800-877-8339; FAX:
202-482-9237; Email: pledvina@oge.gov. The model Certificate of
Independence and model Certificate of Compliance for qualified trusts
are codified in appendixes A and B to 5 CFR part 2634. Appendix C of 5
CFR 2634 provides the Privacy Act Statement and Public Burden Statement
for the model certificates. Copies of the ten qualified trust model
documents are available on OGE's Web site, www.oge.gov. Electronic
copies of these documents may also be obtained, without charge, by
contacting Mr. Ledvina.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of Government Ethics intends to
submit, after this first round notice and comment period, all twelve
qualified trust model certificates and model documents described below
(all of which are included under OMB paperwork control number 3209-
0007) for a three-year extension of approval by OMB under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35). At that time, OGE will publish a
second paperwork notice in the Federal Register to inform the public
and the agencies. The current paperwork approval for the model
certificates and model trust documents, last granted by OMB in 2013, is
scheduled to expire at the end of November 2016. OGE is proposing no
changes to the twelve qualified trust certificates and model documents
OGE is the supervising ethics office for the executive branch of
the Federal Government under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978
(EIGA). Presidential nominees to executive branch positions subject to
Senate confirmation and any other executive branch officials may seek
OGE approval for EIGA qualified blind or diversified trusts as one
means to be used to avoid conflicts of interest.
OGE is the sponsoring agency for the model certificates and model
trust documents for qualified blind and diversified trusts of executive
branch officials set up under section 102(f) of the Ethics in
Government Act, 5 U.S.C. app. Sec.  102(f), and OGE's implementing
financial disclosure regulations at subpart D of 5 CFR part 2634. The
various model certificates and model trust documents are utilized by
OGE and settlors, trustees and other fiduciaries in establishing and
administering these qualified trusts.
There are two categories of information collection requirements
that OGE plans to submit for renewed paperwork approval, each with its
own related reporting model certificates or model trust documents which
are subject to paperwork review and approval by OMB. The OGE regulatory
citations for these two categories, together with identification of the
forms used for their implementation, are as follows:
i. Qualified trust certifications--5 CFR 2634.404(f) and (g),
2634.405(c) and (d), 2634.407, 2634.408(d)(4), 2634.410, 2634.414 and
appendixes A and B to part 2634 (the two implementing forms, the
Certificate of Independence and Certificate of Compliance, are codified
respectively in the cited appendixes); and
ii. Qualified trust communications and model provisions and
agreements--5 CFR 2634.404(f), 2634.407(a), 2634.408(a)-(c), 2634.407
and 2634.414 (the ten implementing forms are the: (A)
Blind Trust Communications (Expedited Procedure for Securing Approval
of Proposed Communications); (B) Model Qualified Blind Trust
Provisions; (C) Model Qualified Diversified Trust Provisions; (D) Model
Qualified Blind Trust Provisions (For Use in the Case of Multiple
Fiduciaries); (E) Model Qualified Blind Trust Provisions (For Use in
the Case of an Irrevocable Pre-Existing Trust); (F) Model Qualified
Diversified Trust Provisions (Hybrid Version); (G) Model Qualified
Diversified Trust Provisions (For Use in the Case of Multiple
Fiduciaries); (H) Model Qualified Diversified Trust Provisions (For Use
in the Case of an Irrevocable Pre-Existing Trust); (I) Model
Confidentiality Agreement Provisions (For Use in the Case of a
Privately Owned Business); and (J) Model Confidentiality Agreement
Provisions (For Use in the Case of Investment Management Activities)).
The communications formats and the confidentiality agreements
(items ii.(A), (I) and (J) above), once completed, would not be
available to the public because they contain sensitive, confidential
information. All the other completed model trust certificates and model
trust documents (except for any trust provisions that relate to the
testamentary disposition of trust assets) are retained and made
publicly available based upon a proper request under EIGA (by filling
out an OGE Form 201 access form) until the periods for retention of all
other reports (usually the OGE Form 278 Public Financial Disclosure
Reports) of the individual establishing the trust have lapsed
(generally six years after the filing of the last other report). See 5
CFR 2634.603(g)(2) of OGE's executive branch financial disclosure
regulation.
The U.S. Office of Government Ethics administers the qualified
trust program for the executive branch. At the present time, there are
no active filers using the trust model certificates and documents.
However, OGE intends to submit to OMB a request for extension of
approval for two reasons. First, under OMB's implementing regulations
for the Paperwork Reduction Act, at 5 CFR 1320.3(c)(4)(i), any
recordkeeping, reporting or disclosure requirement contained in a
sponsoring agency rule of general applicability is deemed to meet the
minimum threshold of ten or more persons. Second, OGE does anticipate
possible limited use of these forms during the forthcoming three-year
period 2016-2019. Therefore, the estimated burden figures, representing
branchwide implementation of the forms, will remain the same as
previously reported by OGE in its prior first and second round
paperwork renewal notice for the trust forms in 2013 and 2014 (77 FR
76293-76294 (December 27, 2012) and 78 FR 40144-40146 (December 1,
2009)). The estimate is based on the amount of time imposed on a trust
administrator or private representative.
i. Trust Certificates:
A. Certificate of Independence: Total filers (executive branch): 5;
private citizen filers (100%): 5; private citizen burden hours (20
minutes/certificate): 2.
B. Certificate of Compliance: Total filers (executive branch): 10;
private citizen filers (100%): 10; private citizen burden hours (20
minutes/certificate): 3; and
ii. Model Qualified Trust Documents:
A. Blind Trust Communications: Total users (executive branch): 5;
private citizen users (100%): 5; communications documents (private
citizens): 25 (based on an average of five communications per user, per
year); private citizen burden hours (20 minutes/communication): 8.
B. Model Qualified Blind Trust: Total users (executive branch): 2;
private citizen users (100%): 2; private citizen burden hours (100
hours/model): 200.
C. Model Qualified Diversified Trust: Total users (executive
branch): 1; private citizen users (100%): 1; private citizen burden
hours (100 hours/model): 100.
D-H. Of the five remaining model qualified trust documents: Total
users (executive branch): 2; private citizen users (100%): 2; private
citizen burden hours (100 hours/model): 200.
I-J. Of the two model confidentiality agreements: Total users
(executive branch): 1; private citizen users (100%): 1; private citizen
burden hours (50 hours/agreement): 50.
However, the total annual reporting hour burden on filers
themselves is zero and not the 563 hours estimated above because OGE's
estimating methodology reflects the fact that all respondents hire
private trust administrators or other private representatives to set up
and maintain the qualified blind and diversified trusts. Respondents
themselves, typically incoming private citizen Presidential nominees,
therefore incur no hour burden. The estimated total annual cost burden
to respondents resulting from the collection of information is
$1,000,000. Those who use the model documents for guidance are private
trust administrators or other private representatives hired to set up
and maintain the qualified blind and diversified trusts of executive
branch officials who seek to establish such qualified trusts. The cost
burden figure is based primarily on OGE's knowledge of the typical
trust administrator fee structure (an average of 1 percent of total
assets) and OGE's experience with administration of the qualified trust
program. The $1,000,000 annual cost figure is based on OGE's estimate
of an average of five possible active trusts anticipated to be under
administration for each of the next two years with combined total
assets of $100,000,000. However, OGE notes that the $1,000,000 figure
is a cost estimate for the overall administration of the trusts, only a
portion of which relates to information collection and reporting. For
want of a precise way to break out the costs directly associated with
information collection, OGE is continuing to report to OMB the full
$1,000,000 estimate for paperwork clearance purposes.
Public comment is invited on each aspect of the model qualified
trust certificates and model trust documents, and underlying regulatory
provisions, as set forth in this notice, including specific views on
the need for and practical utility of this set of collections of
information, the accuracy of OGE's burden estimate, the potential for
enhancement of quality, utility and clarity of the information
collected, and the minimization of burden (including the use of
information technology).
Comments received in response to this notice will be summarized
for, and may be included with, the OGE request for extension of the OMB
paperwork approval for the set of the various existing qualified trust
model certificates, the model communications package, and the model
trust documents. The comments will also become a matter of public
record.
Approved: February 29, 2016.

Christena Nippert-Eng's Islands of Privacy is an interview-intensive book that grapples with how her sample group of Chicago residents attempt to achieve privacy, and the regular issues they face in maintaining privacy on a day-to-day basis. She finds a strong correlation between those who have had their privacy violated and those who want to secure and defend privacy as a concept and important element of their lived experience. 74 interviews were conducted with residents of Chicago and she makes very clear that her findings and conclusions are consequently highly contingent: other populations across America and the world would likely result in very different understandings of what constitutes privacy and a violation.
Privacy is defined quite early as "about nothing less than trying to live both as a member of social units – as part of a number of larger wholes – and as an individual – a unique, individuated self" (6). Further, privacy is identified as something to be managed: it exists by managing public information. Information is seen by participants as inherently public, with effort required to make it private, though interviewed subjects do not necessarily stick to this understanding of privacy throughout their interviews. On the whole, the approach to privacy remains wrapped up in the language on control, seclusion, and selective sharing of information; in this sense, Nippert-Eng's work can be seen as a fusion of Westin's Privacy and Freedom and key tenets of Nissembaum's work in Privacy in Context: Technology, Policy, and the Integrity of Social Life.
She has organized her book into four chapters, along with an introduction and conclusion. This sees her focus on secrets and secrecy, wallets and purses, cell phones and email, and doorbells and windows. Each of these focuses are used to tease out different ways that privacy is understood, achieved, and violated by her interview subjects. The chapters are well organized and keep to their themes. The chapter on secrets, in particular, could be seen as a useful extension of Lawrence M. Friedman's work in Guarding Life's Dark Secrets: Legal and Social Controls over Reputation, Propriety, and Privacy, which lacked contemporary interviews to understand how secrecy and privacy function in the minds and actions of 'everyday people' in the contemporary American setting. The chapter does not, however, engage with any of the excellent analysis undertaken by Judith Wagner Decew in In Pursuit of Privacy: Law, Ethics, and the Rise of Technology, which left this reader disappointed. Decew's work in mapping the context of privacy would have fit beautifully into many elements of Nippert-Eng's work by nuancing understandings of privacy and secrecy, but it never appears. The section on cell phones and email can be read profitably against Turkle's recently released Alone Together, providing yet more context and in depth interviews about how people see mobile devices as (dis)integrating their lives.
I remain unconvinced about the usefulness of the 'beach' metaphor that is laid out at the beginning of the book and the conclusion. In short, beaches are used to explain the domains of privacy that the author is interested in: privacy at the boundary points between clearly 'public' and 'private' domains. This continues from her work on boundary-play, but I would have preferred a more direct explication – the metaphor is not used in a strong enough way, throughout the book, to create a lasting positive impression or make particularly complicated theory more accessible.
The book's real gems are scattered throughout the interviews; privacy and surveillance scholars will not necessarily be surprised by what subjects say, but Nippert-Eng enables scholars to better ground ground their work on exactly what people say about privacy in their daily experiences. This can facilitate a firmer foundation upon which highly theoretical arguments around privacy and surveillance can be built around and upon. Of course, the small sample size does limit how strongly her interviews can be relied upon; arguably scholars working on American privacy issues will be best served and international scholars less so.
Ultimately, Nippert-Eng has provided a real contribution to the literature by making available years of empirical research and reaffirming conclusions that the literature has come to by way of theorization. In this way, Islands of Privacy offers strong empirical support for existing theoretical work, better grounding scholarly work and offering novel ways of articulating issues and problems that scholars have grappled with for decades. If you are invested in the sociological analysis of privacy and surveillance, or are looking for strong empirical grounding for some abstract theorizations of either, then this is a good book to add to your library.

Jack Johnson will fill in for Mumford and Sons during tomorrow night's headlining slot at Bonnaroo. The English folk-rock superstars were forced to cancel their appearance at the festival, and the remainder of their summer tour, following the discovery of a blood clot in bassist Ted Dwayne's brain. Dwayne underwent emergency surgery and appears to recovering smoothly, but the band decided to call off the shows anyway due to the medical advice they received.
As previously reported, Johnson already sat in with ALO last night during their late night performance in the That Tent. Jackson also headlined the festival back in 2008 and was one of the breakout stars of the first Bonnaroo in 2002.
