Science Center at the University of Maryland, College Park.
A sample of 2574 entering freshmen were administered the University New Student Census (UNSC) at summer orientation to assess attitudes and interests in areas related to their counseling interests. The results of the UNSC can be used to prepare programs and staff to meet the needs of these new students on campus.
Educational and vocational concerns were highlighted by 53% of the freshmen, who indicated an interest in seeking counseling in this area. A plurality (42$) were attending college for the primary purpose of getting a better job or preparing for graduate school. Females were more interested than males in receiving counseling for educational/vocational concerns, and they also expected to have a more difficult time adjusting academically. However, males were just as likely to be interested in improving their learning skills even though they reported having less difficulty concentrating than females did.
In spite of the fact that female students expected no more difficulty adjusting socially than males did, they were more likely to be interested in counseling regarding emotional/social concerns. A correlation was found between those students interested in counseling for educational/vocational counseling and those interested in counseling for emotional/social concerns.
Males indicated greater interest than females in pursuing counseling for problems with alcohol; this contrasts with a previously reported trend. There was a correlation between student interest in counseling for problems with alcohol and interest in counseling for emotional/social concerns.
Other important considerations in planning for the delivery of adequate counseling services to new freshmen are the need for different types of counseling based on goal directedness, gender differences with respect to areas of counseling interest, and the availability of a strong support person.
This research indicated what some freshman interests in counseling are. It also showed that males and females differ significantly in some of their counseling concerns and needs. Correlations between areas of counseling interest suggest the value of examining more than just the presenting problem in counseling situations. Recent studies suggest the use of a variety of counseling formats and styles for meeting the needs of students seeking assistance. Being prepared for the effective delivery of services to incoming freshmen calls for an awareness and understanding of these issues.
Colleges and universities must plan for the delivery of necessary counseling services to incoming freshmen each year. Knowing what the needs and expectations of these new students are is one key to discovering what kind of counseling services are likely to benefit the students.
Career selection concerns and academic issues are problems for some new students on college campuses (Beard, Elmore, & Lange, 1982). Boyer and Sedlacek (1984) reported that college students consider career issues to be of central importance and are more interested in career counseling than in other types of counseling. In fact, educational and vocational concerns are the most common problems faced by college students (Carney, Savitz, Weiskott, 1979; Snyder, Hill, & Derksen, 1972). Interpersonal problems and family issues are faced by students as well (Archer & Lamnin, 1986).
Freshman students have also indicated an interest in receiving counseling for drug concerns (Kohatsu & Sedlacek; 1990). Even though drug use in general was on the decline except for alcohol, beer, and tobacco consumption, students agreed they would seek counseling at the university counseling center. There were no significant differences between males and females with respect to the rates of drug usage or the reasons for using drugs in the 1990 study. The most common reasons for use of drugs were to get high or feel good and to relieve tension or anxiety.
Students reported their reasons for drinking beer were to get drunk or to shut things out. In an earlier study (Carter & Sedlacek, 1989), beer and hard liquor were the substances with the highest percentage of regular use with students' most common reasons for indulging being to get high or feel good, to be more sociable, and to relieve tension or anxiety. In that year, students also agreed they would attend the university counseling center for drug counseling. Female students were significantly more likely than male students to support drug counseling programs and to attend a drug education program. In providing services to incoming freshmen, colleges and universities might consider separate programs for males and females because of these differences.
increased in highly assertive individuals when they received high nurturing support. Individuals with low goal-directedness may be unable to recognize and make use of social support (Riley & Eckenrode, 1986). Bobbins, Lese, and Herrick (1993) concluded that low goal-directed individuals may need interventions such as those incorporating the use of strong role models and active guidance in their adjustment to college. High goal-directed individuals may therefore be more interested in counseling situations which make use of group activities, and low goal directed individuals may benefit more from one-to-one or small group relationships in which they could discuss problems and receive nurturing support.
and evaluation during a student orientation period.
Research has shown that college freshmen view the counselor's role as informational (King & Matteson, 1959). However, Boyer and Sedlacek (1987) found no significant differences among incoming students' expectations of counseling for educational/vocational, emotional/social, and counseling with an unspecified content. Their explanation of this finding is the lack of previous counseling experience of most freshmen and the resulting absence of having given much thought to the different kinds of counseling services available. Abler and Sedlacek (1987) did find that females prefer female counselors for help with emotional/social concerns.
Nelson's (1993) review of current studies on gender differences between counselor and clients pointed to the need for further research into which types of counselor-client pairs are of greatest benefit to clients. She cited multiple predictors in addition to gender pairings as possible determinants of process and outcome in counseling situations.
5 must deal with their adjustment to college life. Freshman interests in counseling may have changed. The following study explored those interests.
During summer orientation, entering freshmen (N=2574) at a large eastern university were administered a questionnaire (the University New Student Census; UNSC) assessing attitudes and interests on a wide range of topics including counseling. The sample consisted of 1289 females and 1285 males. The racial/ethnic composition of the sample was 8$ African American, 70$ White (not of Hispanic origin), 17$ Asian or Pacific Islander, 3% Hispanic or Latin American, and less than 1% American Indian or Alaskan Native.
Questionnaires were administered by trained graduate and undergraduate students. Before the measures were distributed, the administrators told the students that the purpose was to gather information to better plan programs and services to students. All responses were to remain confidential; individual questionnaires were only coded by student ID number. It took approximately twenty minutes for students to fill out the UNSC.
Data were analyzed descriptively using percentages; and Chi Square, and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) by gender at the .05 level were used to evaluate the results.
The results are reported in three areas of interest; educational/vocational concerns, emotional/social concerns, and drug concerns.
be interested in seeking counseling regarding educational/vocational concerns, 53% agreed or strongly agreed. Females were significantly more inclined to be interested in educational/vocational counseling than males were, but they were not significantly more likely than males to desire information about choosing a major. Females also reported expecting to have a hard time adjusting to the academic work of college significantly more than males did although 42% of the incoming freshman class targeted adjusting academically as a problem area. A number of students who indicated that they had a hard time concentrating also expected to experience difficulty adjusting to the academic work of college (r = .34; a = .05). Another interesting finding is that even though females reported difficulties concentrating more than males did, males were just as likely as females to be interested in improving their learning skills. The results of the MANOVA are presented in Table 1.
counseling regarding emotional/social concerns. Also, a significant correlation (r = .20; a = .05) was found between those freshmen interested in seeking counseling for emotional/social concerns (8$) and those interested in counseling for educational/vocational plans (53%). Females reported significantly more family interest in their classroom experiences than did males.
Males also differed significantly from females with respect to their interest in seeking counseling for problems with alcohol with twice as many males as females indicating greater interest in pursuing this type of counseling. A correlation (r = .42; a = .05) existed between students expressing an interest in seeking counseling for problems with alcohol and students who were also interested in seeking counseling for emotional/social concerns.
assistance with their learning skills, including study and writing skills. Yet, how many incoming freshmen are aware of their potential counseling needs?
It is always difficult to get freshmen to seek counseling before problems develop. Unrealistic self appraisal has been suggested as one of the factors leading to this difficulty (Tracey & Sedlacek, 1984; Smith, Walter, & Hoey, 1992) in addition to lack of previous counseling experience (Boyer & Sedlacek, 1987). In spite of these explanations, colleges and universities must plan programs and prepare staff in advance for dealing with problems which students are likely to encounter.
This study attempted to examine recent freshman counseling interests in three areas, educational/vocational concerns, emotional/social concerns, and drug concerns. Since it may be helpful to approach males and females separately based on their differing needs, this study also looked at areas of significant difference between genders.
females to pursue more options with respect to career and education, since there is a lack of information on the part of females about the world of work and career and fewer role models for women in many career areas of interest to them. There are also less favorable conditions for acquiring career information for female students due to subtle forms of discrimination in business and industry (e.g. glass ceilings). Women's willingness to pursue educational/vocational counseling is consistent with the more relational style which many women use in their approaches to problem solving.
Lacking long term career goals may indicate a need for more supportive and nurturing programs for females. One to one counseling or small group experiences aimed at discussing problems within the context of a therapeutic relationship might better serve the needs for female students whereas male students may benefit more from larger group work with some emphasis on sharing activities. Females may also need more direct guidance and strong role modeling in their exploration of career and educational goals. Participation with clients in goal-setting activities in general as well as in the career exploration area within the counseling sessions may be more helpful for female students.
appropriate mentors on campus. Counseling relationships providing this kind of support and interest in the student's actual classroom experience might fill the need for a number of male freshmen and prevent a drop in GPA as predicted by Tracey and Sedlacek (1984).
Greater interest by females in counseling for emotional/social concerns in spite of no significant difference between reported expectations for adjustment to the social life of college by males and females may indicate a more realistic self-appraisal on the part of female students or a more open attitude of females to counseling in this area. Perhaps interest in counseling for emotional/social concerns may be related more to developmental, personality, or family matters than to social adjustment to life on campus. The correlation between interest in counseling for emotional/social concerns and educational/vocational counseling is interesting in light of the general knowledge that the presenting problem in counseling may be the student's entree to explore other counseling concerns. Awareness of this phenomenon continues to be important in planning counseling services, and it seems to be supported by this study.
Carter & Sedlacek study (1989) which reported more support by female students for drug counseling and drug education programs. Awareness of fluctuations in interest over time can serve to enlighten and prepare counseling personnel for meeting current needs. Emotional/social counseling as a component of alcohol counseling is also indicated based on the correlation existing between interest in the two kinds of counseling. Because of the known tendency for denial of alcohol problems, it is possible that there is more of a need for alcohol counseling than the figures would indicate. This tendency should be considered in planning counseling programs for the freshman class.
Counseling Center personnel on college and university campuses can probably expect to plan on serving incoming freshman in the areas of career and vocational concerns, social emotional concerns, and alcohol concerns. The types of counseling styles and formats needed will include one to one counseling, small groups, and larger groups; and will vary according to presenting concern, amount of goal directedness, and gender. Separate programs for males and females may be required for vocational and alcohol counseling. It is likely that career and educational concerns will be foremost for students and that some students presenting themselves for career and educational counseling will be able to benefit from and counseling in other areas as well.

versatile, able to convert pdf to epub verrrry quickly. . It is a really versatile reader for many formats, converts formats as well. It is flexible in having single, double, triple, quadruple columns. I just downloaded it, so have yet to fully test it out. Thankful it is free.
free, rapid pdf to epub conversion.
Excellent Reader. Been using Stanza since it was born on my Iphone, then my Ipad and it is the ultimate book reader, I don't really find anything bloated about it, the only thing I wish it would do is sync over the cloud so when you read on 1 device you can pick up on the other and be in the same place. Also wish they had it for Playbook. Besides those issues it is the best reader by far.
flexible, great features but slow. This is the first and only ebook reader I've ever used. It does everything I need it to, no more no less. It boasts a no-frills interface which is a pleasure to read with.
I prefer to read in inverse mode, white text on a black background. With Stanza it's a cinch to customize your theme and layout, you can select from a number of presets. Chapter selection and bookmarking work well, and page scrolling is smooth and instant.
However, the main drawback is its speed. It is sluggish in loading big books, and also slow to reset the layout when you resize the text. What also annoys me is that when you increase the font size, it loses your page—I have to go hunting to find where I last was. Also, I wish that it would remember my font size preferences. Every time I boot the program I have to remind it I like my text big.
What can we expect from Respawn's upcoming Star Wars game?
Why still no Kindle software for Mac Amazon?
What do you think about Stanza ? Do you recommend it? Why?

U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks moves to block federal funding for 'sanctuary cities'
Dylan Smith
(Congressman Mo Brooks/Flickr)
U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville) on Wednesday announced that he has filed an amendment to H.R. 4505, the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, which would block all funds from the appropriations bill from being provided to any jurisdiction that breaches U.S. immigration law.
In a statement promoting his amendment, Brooks highlighted federal government-reported statistics that present crime-related data associated with illegal immigration.
"Sanctuary policies endanger American lives," said Brooks. "Look at the data. According to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the agency issued 122,233 detainers in [fiscal year] 2020. Those subject to detainers had criminal histories including more than 1,900 homicide-related offenses, 1,900 kidnappings, 3,600 robberies, 42,800 assaults, and 11,900 sex crimes."
Brooks pointed to the case of Kate Steinle, who was killed at the hands of illegal alien and Mexican National Garcia Zarate.
"Many will recall the tragic murder of American citizen Kate Steinle, who was gunned down in San Francisco, a sanctuary city, by a violent illegal immigrant with seven felonies on his record and five deportations," continued Brooks. "If this federal data is any indicator, illegal aliens are far more likely to commit violent and dangerous crimes than the average American or lawful immigrant. Sanctuary policies shield illegal alien criminals from deportation and justice. I'm for whatever it takes to help get dangerous illegal alien criminals off American streets."
Conservatives in recent years have undertaken efforts to bar cities from providing asylum to those residing in the country unlawfully. In citing opposition to "sanctuary cities," many have pointed to crime data accompanying illegal immigration, as well as attempts by progressive
lawmakers to register foreign nationals to vote in what they see as an attempt to gain political advantage.
The Tennessee Valley congressman joins fellow Alabama Republicans in introducing legislative remedies to target cities that provide safe harbor to illegal immigrants, shielding them from deportation.
Under current Alabama law, local governments and municipalities are prohibited from infringing upon federal immigration law, with civil penalties applied to any such violation. A recent attempt was made in the 2020 regular session by State Sen. Arthur Orr (R-Decatur) to strengthen penalties for such violations to a Class C felony. The bill advanced through committee among a party-line vote but failed to pass the legislature's upper chamber.

In July, Josh and I will have been married for 5 years. In August, we will have known each other 8 years. In those 8 years we have continually sought to do the Lord's will in our lives. When we first started dating I told Josh that I would support him 100% but that he needed to know that I was called to do mission work and that no matter what he did I would also feel that I was needed in the nations. Since that time, I went to India, we went to China and Africa. We also went to Alaska and Avoca, TX. God has been doing some work in me the past few years, he has been clarifying his plan for my lives. While Africa is a place that will always be on my heart, God has taught me that wherever I am is my mission field.
I am called to declare his glory and his marvelous deeds, how is this melting pot of America not the best place to start. I hope that God will choose to send us overseas many more times in our future but for now he has chosen to send us somewhere a little more local.
In June, Josh and I will be relocating to Georgetown, TX. Josh will be the High School and Guys Student Minister at Crestview Baptist Church. God has shown us that this is our next mission field. I do not know God's plans, but I believe the words in Jeremiah 29:11.
I believe that God has plans to prosper us and in turn we will bring glory to him. His plans are always perfect. His timing is always perfect.
Speaking of perfect timing, sometimes God's timing is to remind us that he is perfectly under control. I titled this blog The Year of Change because not only are we moving but God has decided to provide us with a miracle blessing.
We are expecting our little bundle of joy the end of September/beginning of October.
God is showing us every day that as long as we allow him he will take charge of our lives. Honestly, sometimes it is hard for me. Sometimes I want to tell God that my way, my plan is much better than his, that having a baby and moving to a new town and starting a new job just don't make sense. But then I stop and I look at the past 8 years. I see where he has already brought us and I know. I know the peace that surpasses understanding.
I know that it has been a long time since we have blogged on this page. I can't promise to do any better because I really don't know what the future holds. But I do promise that when God gives me words he wants me to share I will share them.
I hope today that you will see that it is okay to throw out your plans, to trust in your Creator that he created you for a purpose.
Gail my heart is so happy for you guys!!!! Praise The Lord for Him being in control! Praying for all the changes that are coming your way this year, and praising him that y'all are faithful to obey!
Gail and Josh, my heart is so full of excitement for you on your announcement of God's blessing your lives with the baby. However, my heart is heavy with your moving. I have truly enjoyed being a part of your life in our little part of God's world. I know you must follow God's road map for a full life. I pray for God's blessings on you and yours.

Q: Prototype PeriodicExecutor doesn't update source I have a script that updates a table when there are new entries in the database. It pulls a time from the last row in the table and then grabs all the entries that were entered since then.
It runs fine the first time, it grabs the new entries and updates the table. When it runs the second time, however, it will use that initial timestamp and not retrieve the current last entry that was just pulled from the database.
So it seems like the PeriodicalExecuter function loads the page's html when it starts and fails to account for any asynchronous updates or it merely saves that initial time. Is there anyway to get around this?
Here's some code:
new PeriodicalExecuter(function() {
      new Ajax.Request(
        '#{url}&since_ts=' + $$('#posts tr:last-child td.description')[0].innerHTML.match(/Posted at: (\\d{4}-\\d{2}-\\d{2} \\d{2}:\\d{2}:\\d{2})/)[1],
        {asynchronous:true,
          evalScripts:true,
          parameters:'authenticity_token=' + encodeURIComponent('#{form_authenticity_token}')
        }
      )
    }, 60)

I am fairly new to javascript and I would greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks!

A: I've not used Prototype before, so this is a wild guess, but it could just be caching the call as it's defaulting to GET. Try the following parameters is your call after the url
{
    asynchronous:true,
    method: 'post',
    evalScripts:true,
    parameters:'authenticity_token=' + encodeURIComponent('#{form_authenticity_token}')
}

A: I figured out that the problem wasn't with the PeriodicExecutor function but rather my selector statement. So all I had to do was find another way to access the last tr element in the table.
$$('#posts tr td.description').last().innerHTML.match(/Posted at: (\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2} \d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2})/)[1]

So simple and yet it is always the last thing that you look at.

You probably already know that the amount of traffic that your company website gets from search engines is based on how well it ranks for various keywords. But if you're new to online marketing and SEO, then you likely still have some questions about what keywords are and how to target your content around these keywords to drive high levels of traffic to your blog. Below is a quick overview of how blog content and keywords work together to generate website traffic.
Keywords are the words and phrases that people type into Google, and other search engines, to search for various types of content on the internet. To drive traffic to your company blog, fuel conversions, and increase sales you want to do some keyword research to see what phrases are popular among your customer base and that relate to your products and services.
Keywords are important, because if you are using keywords and blogging about topics that nobody is searching for, then you are not likely to get a lot of traffic. Use the right keywords, and you'll attract more traffic to your blog. There is a little more to it than that, but that is the basic concept. This can be as simple as changing the phrase "wheel" to being "tire".
Keyword research can get a little bit complicated, so it's often best left up to experts in SEO and digital marketing like MarkeTop. There are software tools designed to analyze search results, compare traffic levels, examine advertiser competition and overall value of the keywords based on advertising fees. You can also use the free keyword planner provided by Google for its AdWords program participants.
You start with a specific topic or product that you think your target customers would be interested in. So you plug the keyword into your keyword tool. It will then generate hundreds or thousands of keyword variations based on your "seed" keyword along with various stats to help you analyze the keyword. You would then choose a number of these keywords and begin creating content around them, such as blog posts, videos, and social media posts.
Then you would use another tool to analyze the pages that already rank in the top positions for those keywords to determine if you can outrank them. You would look at several factors such as the keyword density, the number, and authority of backlinks pointing to those pages, the page authority and domain authority.
When you create a blog post, you'll have a primary keyword in mind, and you'll use it in the title of the post. You'll also use it one or two more times in the post along with some variations of that keyword. Then you can also sprinkle in some closely-related keywords to add context for search engines to pick up and help them understand what your content is about.
Keyword research, then, is crucial to your online marketing strategy. When you target content to keywords with commercial intent that relates to your products and services, you attract people to your site who are intensely interested in your content and are much more likely to convert to leads and make purchases. Keep in mind the length of your posts is important so you should not just focus on keywords. Remember, content is king.
Keyword-driven content marketing can rapidly grow your traffic levels and save you years of frustration and low traffic levels. It will still take some time to gain traffic and rankings for those keywords, but once you build some momentum and site authority in search rankings, it will become easier over time for your site to rank your content and increase traffic more quickly.

With some major economic data unavailable due to the government shutdown, and ahead of several major economic events in the near future, there was little market moving news this week, and mortgage rates ended nearly unchanged.
One economic report which was released this week revealed that housing market activity tapered off near the end of 2018. Sales of existing homes in December were down sharply from November and were 10% lower than a year ago. On a brighter note, the supply of homes for sale was a little larger than a year ago, and median home prices were 3% higher than a year ago.
Analysts cited a number of reasons for the decline in home sales late last year including rising mortgage rates, stock market volatility, higher home prices, and political concerns about the trade negotiations and the government shutdown. It remains to be seen whether the weak results for December were part of a longer-term trend or were due to temporary factors.
On Thursday, the report on new filings for jobless claims released each week unexpectedly fell to just 199,000, which was the lowest level since 1969. The accuracy of the results is a bit uncertain, though, since the number of claims for several states was an estimate rather than an actual count due to the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday on January 14.
As expected, Thursday's European Central Bank (ECB) meeting revealed a modestly more dovish stance. The ECB held its benchmark interest rates steady and said that the central bank will not hike rates at least through the summer of 2019. According to the ECB, risks to economic growth in the region now favor the downside due to several factors including financial market volatility, geopolitical uncertainties, "the threat of protectionism" and "vulnerabilities in emerging markets." There was little reaction to the meeting in U.S. markets.
Looking ahead, the important monthly Employment report will be released on Friday. As usual, these figures on the number of jobs, the unemployment rate, and wage inflation will be the most highly anticipated economic data of the month. Before that, the Core PCE price index, the inflation indicator favored by the Fed, is scheduled to be released on Thursday. The ISM national manufacturing index will come out on Friday. In addition, the next Fed meeting will take place on Wednesday. Investors do not expect any change in the federal funds rate, but they will be looking for guidance about the pace of future monetary policy tightening. Trade talks between the U.S. and China could influence mortgage rates next week as well.


The republic of Bolivia is situated in the heart of South America, between 57° 26' and 69° 38' longitude and west of the Prime Meridian, and 9° 38' and 22° 53' S latitude, including more than 13 different types of geography. Brazil borders the north and northeastern part of the country, Peru in the northwest, Paraguay in the southeast, Argentina in the south, and Chile to the west and southwest.
Geographically speaking, the Bolivian territory has a total surface area of 1,098,581 km2 (424,162 sq miles) and boasts three distinct geographical zones: the mountain ranges, valleys, and plains.
The constitutional capital of Bolivia is Sucre, however, the seat of government is located in La Paz.
Politically, the country is divided into 9 regions: Beni, Cochabamba, Chuquisaca, La Paz, Oruro, Pando, Potosí, Tarija and Santa Cruz; 112 provinces, 314 sectors, and 1,384 districts.
The Bolivian population is 8,274,325 inhabitants; 56% are indigenous, 22% white, and 22% Mestizos (mix of indigenous and European). According to the State Political Constitution, Bolivia has been acknowledged as a "Multiethnic and Multicultural" country, a distinguished recognition throughout the world.
The official languages are: Spanish, Quechua, Aymará and Tupiguaraní. In addition to this, there are different linguistic groups throughout the various regions of Bolivia. The aborigines that inhabit Bolivian territory have different physical characteristics and other defining traits such as language structure that have traditionally classified them into three groups: Andino, Tupí Guaraní, and Araguaco or Arawacan.
Although the official religion is Roman Catholic, and the majority of the population claims to be Catholic, freedom of religion is accepted in Bolivia. Ties with the Catholic Church have remained strong through agreements and pacts between Bolivia and the Vatican.
La Paz is considered the highest capital city in the world since it is located some 3,610 meters (11,844 ft) above sea level, at the foot of the snow-capped Illimani, on a plateau. As the seat of government, it is the most important city in the country, joining a large part of public administration with the nation's financial and commercial activities at the same time.
Since Spanish is the official language, Bolivia is the perfect country to learn how to speak. You can find Spanish language schools in La Paz and other cities.

12.10.2020 PREPARATIONS UNDERWAY FOR THE REDEVELOPMENT OF THE ELEPHANT AND CASTLE TOWN CENTRE
Keltbray, the specialist civil engineering group, will commence the phased demolition of the Elephant and Castle Shopping Centre on Monday 12 October, to make way for the construction of the new town centre.
Keltbray will take a phased approach starting with the installation of permanent hoarding and scaffolding, decommissioning of the existing utility and service infrastructure and a strip-out of the building from the inside. Once this is complete, structural demolition will start with the low-rise buildings to the north of the site facing New Kent Road, before progressing south. The approach has been carefully planned to ensure noise, disruption and dust is kept to a minimum.
Keltbray has a track record of accomplishment of delivering projects in Southwark, and has created a number of employment opportunities in the local area.
The demolition process is due to continue through to summer 2021, and Keltbray will be arranging a series of monthly community engagement meetings and newsletters to keep the community informed on next steps throughout this period. The next one will be held on 3 November – you can sign up via info@elephantandcastletowncentre.co.uk.
Multiplex is assisting to provide technical services to bring forward the construction of the new town centre, which is expected to commence in 2021.
As an important symbol of the Elephant and Castle community, the Elephant statue will be restored and relocated at Castle Square during construction. It will then move to a space in the new town centre when the project completes. Other pieces of iconic signage and artefacts from the shopping centre are being retained and are also expected to be given a new home.
A spokesperson for Elephant and Castle Town Centre commented:
"The regeneration and the future of the town centre has been discussed for many years, so it is encouraging to see it moving forward. The first phase of the new town centre, which will take five years to complete, will become a central Zone One destination across 2.5 acres of high-quality, open-air public realm. It will include a new Northern Line station that is future proofed for the Bakerloo Line extension with significantly enhanced capacity, a new cutting edge building for London College of Communication, UAL and a centre for UAL's core university services, ensuring the leading education establishment can remain in Elephant and Castle. This will represent a circa £1 billion investment and is integral to Southwark's wider regeneration plan for the area. We are looking forward to working with Keltbray over the coming months to keep the local community informed as we move forward."
Holly Price, skills and communities director at Keltbray commented:
"As we commence on site, we're keen to ensure the local community and stakeholders are well informed of our plans. To communicate this, we will be hosting regular engagement sessions which will be open for local people to attend. We'll also be distributing regular newsletters.
"As part of our commitment to the community, we will be offering employment opportunities to people living in the local area. During the demolition phase we have explored ways to provide new roles to local people and are pleased to offer vacancies including demolition labourers, welfare officers, traffic marshals and site administrators. We have also secured funding to deliver training – making it an excellent opportunity for those who are looking for a role within the local area. This is part of our commitment to the wider community"
Further information about construction is expected to be announced in the coming months.

Nuclear Submarines: Safety
Mr. Hancock
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions on what date her Department received the request from the Health and Safety Executive to review the radius of the emergency pre-planning zone around a berthed nuclear submarine. (321373)
Mr. Kidney
I have been asked to reply.
The Health and Safety Executive is responsible for determining the radius of a Detailed Emergency Planning Zone (DEPZ) around a berthed nuclear-powered submarine. The decision to reduce the DEPZ from 2 km to 1.5 km was based on a hazard assessment for such submarines that the Ministry of Defence submitted to the HSE in February 2008. The HSE completed a review of the assessment and informed the Ministry of Defence of the outcome of that review in December 2008.

«Піднята цілина» () — роман Михайла Шолохова. Перший том роману опублікований в 1932 році, другий — в 1959-му. Твір присвячений радянській колективізації на Дону і руху «25-тисячників», має виразне агітаційно-пропагандистське спрямування. У 1960 році робота була удостоєна Ленінської премії.

Історія створення
Робота над романом була розпочата ще до завершення роботи над романом «Тихий Дон». Перша книга вийшла в 1932 році у журналі «Новый мир» і була сприйнята як самостійний, завершений твір. Другу частину автор завершив незадовго до початку німецько-радянської війни, але у 1942 році її рукопис був втрачений під час бомбардування. На початку 1950-х Шолохов повернувся до роботи над другою частиною, і в 1959 році вона вийшла у світ.

Сюжет
Події роману розгортаються в 1930 році, у розпал колективізації, на Дону. На хутір Грем'ячий Лог за завданням партії приїжджає комуніст, двадцятип'ятитисячник, колишній моряк і робітник Путиловського заводу, Семен Давидов. Він знайомиться з керівником місцевого партійного осередку Макаром Нагульновим і головою сільради Андрієм Разметновим. Разом вони організують колгосп, долаючи недовіру «середняків», борючись зі шкідництвом і безгосподарністю.

Персонажі
Семен Давидов () — головний герой, колишній моряк і колишній робітник Путиловського заводу. Представник руху двадцятип'ятитисячників. Зображується як «правильний» комуніст і стереотипний герой громадянської війни. Радикально настроєний проти «контри», є ініціатором розкуркулення заможних селян у Грем'ячому Логу. Водночас з цим дещо нерішучий і вельми тактовний.

Макар Нагульнов — секретар Грем'ячівського партосередку, описується одним з персонажів як людина з характером «з самих лише кутів, і всі вони гострі». Один із знакових персонажів твору. Ветеран Громадянської війни. Має вкрай ліворадикальні погляди. Фанатично відданий комуністичній ідеології та ідеї Світової революції, з метою сприяння якій в другій частині навіть починає вчити англійську мову.

Андрій Разметнов () — голова сільради Грем'ячого Логу, поміркований і спокійний чоловік. У молодості втратив дружину і часто переживає з цього приводу. Після загибелі Нагульнова стає секретарем Грем'ячівського партосередку.

Дід Щукар — знаковий персонаж твору, чиє ім'я стало прозивним.Вперше з'являється в творі в розділі 2, але не вказано що це він.

Олександр Онисимович Половцев  — головний антагоніст твору, осавул Білої армії, бувший сотник Островного. Бере участь у масштабному контрреволюційній змові проти Радянської влади. Намагається створити повстанську армію з козаків Грем'ячого Логу. Не розлучається зі своєю шаблею. Вбиває Давидова і Нагульнова в кінці другої книги, й утікає в Узбекистан. У кінці визнає свою поразку, видає спільників. Його засуджують до розстрілу. На думку Н. Ф. Теплицина, прообразом Половцева послужив осавул Олександр Сенін.

Островнов Яків Лукич — хороший господар, з'ява в розділі 1 кн.1

Ушаков Демко

Любишкін Павло — червоний партизан

Лосєв Аркадій — голова СОЗу

Менок Аркадій

Пояркова Марина

Бородін Тит Костянтинович

Майданников Кіндрат Христофорович

Гладилін — церковний староста (ктитор)

Критика
Роман зазнав жорсткої критики з боку прибічників сталінських методів управління та їхніх опонентів. Федір Гладков, давній опонент Шолохова, критикував роман за ідеалізацію козацтва та недостатньо позитивні образи комуністів; Віктор Астаф'єв вважав роман неправдивим та зазначав, що заслані до Сибіру колишні «куркулі» були про роман не кращої думки.

After the third batch of Peppermint Bark had been eaten before it made out the door as gifts we were in the mood for something a bit different. There is no peppermint in this concoction, but there is a ton of chocolatey goodness. Consider it a hybrid of the seasonal box of chocolates and Granny's homemade trail mix.
All we did was choose our favourite things and mix them together along with a few leftover Halloween candies. The eclectic assortment is colourful and delicious and SO going to be the reason for Fat Pants this Christmas.
Our packaging of choice - paint cans! Of course. Any packaging will do, dollar stores usually have a lot to choose from. Our mix included Mini Oreos, Chocolate Chip Teddy Grahams, Cadbury Buttons, Mini Eggs, Skittles, bite size Snickers, Crispy Crunch, Tootsie Rolls, Reese's Pieces, and a few other little random Halloween packages. Just choose your favourite things, keep them all a uniform size and remove any wrappers. The total cost on the candy we bought was $19.00 and the whole batch filled 7 of the quart sized Christmas paint cans. That's a pretty cute gift for only $2.71 each and a perfect kid project. Mine loved helping choose the ingredients, getting it all together and packaging it up. I loved that there was no mess.
Hope you have the best Fat Pant season yet!


We have heard many rumors about BlackBerry working on a new flagship smartphone called the BlackBerry A10. The device has even shown up in a short video and in some leaked pictures. The rumored specs are that the BlackBerry A10 will have a 5 inch display, a dual core processor 2GB of RAM.
The unlocked red blackberry Q5 is now available in the UK from mobile retailer Clove, the handset retails for 330 including taxes, and it comes with BlackBerry 10.
The BlackBerry Q5 features a 3.1 inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 720 x 720 pixels, plus a full QWERTY keyboard, it also features front and rear facing cameras.
Earlier this month, Blackberry unveiled their first 5-inch handset known as Z30 at a press event. The handset comes with the latest Blackberry OS 10.2. It was also announced that the update will hit Blackberry Z10, Q10 and Q5 from October, but no exact ETA was given as it's also subjected to carrier approvals. After the update is released by Blackberry, it could take some time for carriers to test the update, add customizations and release it.
For those of you who are using Rogers, you can expect the update by the end of this month.


Looking for a fun little DIY wedding project to spruce up your reception venue? Well this cork installation might just be the thing for you. Kelli made this DIY wedding project for us simply using old wine corks, fishing wire, and a tree branch. This cork installation would look great over the bar at your reception, or on a larger scale for a more dramatic effect over your reception tables … maybe even as a ceremony backdrop! The possibilities are endless.
1. Start by punching holes into the top of each wine cork with a nail or something similar.
2. Measure the length you want the backdrop to be and cut several strings of fishing line and tie to the found piece of tree branch. It can be 40-100 or more depending on how big you want the installation to be.
3. Thread the fishing line through the cork holes and tie a small knot to keep each cork in place.
4. Keep doing that with the corks, while eyeing the balance to get a cascade/ombre effect.
cute idea for the summer andspring wedding.

COVID-19 and digital transformation
Written by Layla McCay, Director of International Relations at NHS Confederation
'Necessity is the mother of invention' is an old proverb proving true as health services across the world race to adapt to manage the challenges of the current coronavirus pandemic. Despite the significant pressures on services across the NHS associated with our COVID-19 response, and indeed because of them, there has been a significant acceleration of digital transformation across many areas of health in the UK. Digital innovation that might have once taken months or years to be adopted has been integrated into practice in days or weeks as people see and meet the need of the moment.
For instance, the coronavirus response has made clear the value of online and video-consultations in primary care, and we have seen a remarkable expansion of digital platforms. In the space of weeks, primary care services in the UK have switched from 1.2 million face-to-face consultations a day to the majority being carried out remotely. According to a 12 April BBC report, GPs are now seeing just seven in every 100 patients face-to-face. Similar progress has been made in secondary care, with widespread moves towards digital-first outpatient appointments and some hospitals supplying iPads to enable loved ones to 'visit' their relatives who have been hospitalised with coronavirus, without risk of infection.
It's not all plain sailing, of course
A key issue has been, and will continue be, how well staff are able to adapt to the new ways of working that are required as a result. The recommendations of the recent Topol Review are now more important than ever, including increased training and resources for staff to ensure that they have the requisite skillset for digital working.
The sudden increased demand on IT infrastructure has inevitably led to practical day-to-day problems, which clinicians have difficulty solving. By way of example, there have been reports recently of clinicians' email inboxes running out of space due to the deluge of new guidance and emails, with concerns that they won't receive new emails as a result. Similarly, in primary care some clinical directors have faced issues accessing and using virtual private networks (VPNs) that connect them to the necessary clinical applications to continue to serve patients.
The coronavirus pandemic has also highlighted the need for the whole system to work together, from primary and secondary care, through to community provision and residential care. While it is encouraging that digital transformation has accelerated in many areas, it remains the case that interoperability within and between sectors is limited. This in turn restricts how responsive services and systems can be to patients. This is recognised as a long-term issue for the sector, but the new motivation to solve this challenge is bringing longstanding issues around sharing of health data, financing and past failures back under scrutiny.
Looking beyond COVID-19
As we work to address the health service's digital challenges and opportunities that have been brought into sharper focus in recent weeks, we also need to look ahead to opportunities specific to the epidemic.
The contact tracing opportunity presents perhaps one of our greatest challenges, given the scale at which it will be required to operate. There are various digital solutions being developed and used for this purpose around the world. For instance, a new open-source app from Massachusetts Institute of Technology notifies users if someone they have been in close contact with has tested positive so they can self-isolate. Countries like Singapore and South Korea have also adopted interesting contact tracing tools.
In Europe, the Commission last week published the EU toolbox for the use of mobile apps for contact tracing and warning in response to the pandemic. The toolbox, which sets out essential requirements for these apps, is accompanied by guidance on protection of personal data and limiting intrusiveness. It will be critical to ensure the security of any digital solution so that citizens can fully trust such innovative digital solutions and embrace them without fear. This is essential because for them to be effective, the majority of people need to adopt the technology. Indeed, the University of Oxford's Big Data Institute ran a simulation that found that ideally 80% of current smartphone owners would need to use a contact-tracing app for it to have the desired effect.
During the coronavirus pandemic, digital innovation and transformation is arriving at pace in health systems in the UK and beyond. Our challenge now will not only be to embrace this innovation, learn the lessons of agility and rapid implementation, but also challenge ourselves to support frontline staff and ensure that the safety of patients and their information are kept at the centre of any change.

Dorset Hospital Evacuated After Chemical Leak
Ammonia Coolant From Fridge Causes Concern
Efforts must be made to ensure that a chemical leak at a Dorset hospital is not repeated elsewhere, a lawyer at Irwin Mitchell has demanded.
Reports have revealed that patients had to be evacuated from Victoria Hospital in Wimborne on Friday evening (March 11th) after nursing staff noticed an unfamiliar smell and contacted local emergency services.
An investigation by specialists revealed that ammonia coolant had leaked from a fridge at the hospital. The item was removed from the site and no one was hurt in the incident.
Irwin Mitchell has much experience of helping victims who have been injured or fallen in incidents involving hazardous chemical substances of this kind.
Mark Allen, an expert at the firm who specialises in providing advice on personal injury claims related to chemical leaks, said: "It is excellent to see reports which highlight how quickly staff reacted to concerns to ensure no one fell ill due to the leak.
"We see first-hand just how devastating contact with dangerous materials can be and have regularly campaigned for all organisations to adhere to the greatest possible standards of safety.
"I hope that lessons can be learnt from this incident which will go some way towards ensuring leaks and evacuations of this kind can be avoided in the future."

Though management principles have evolved through experience and testing. They are not absolute in nature. The list of principles is not exhaustive though Fayal's management principles ate accepted as basic principles of management. New principles emerge as a result of research in the field of management.
Management principles are in nature. They can be applied in almost every organization, big or small, in public or private sector They are bases on genuine observations of human behavior and, therefore, apply in almost all situations at all levels in the organization. This accounts for universality of management principles.
This view of universality of management principle does not had good for modern organizations operating in different countries. Differences I social, cultural and economic backgrounds of different nations makes difficult for these principles to be universally applicable.
Management principles are flexible in nature. As they are bases more on experience than scientific testing, they are flexible and not exhaustive. They can be changed according to situations. Fayal also accepts this fact.
Though flexible in nature, they are consistent; it means they produce similar results in similar situations.
Management is a behavioral science and management principles deal with human behavioural. Since human behavior is unpredictable, these principles be not exact as pure science Cause and effect relationship may or may not be established in application of these principles and their and results. Unity of command, for example, results in higher obedience, efficiency and productivity but this principle does not hold good in functional organizations where multiple command system percales, that is on person is accountable to more than one boss.

Many people prefer tooth-colored fillings that blend in naturally with their teeth. White composite fillings allow you to laugh or smile with confidence that the fillings are concealed. What are some other advantages of tooth-colored fillings?
Strong – where amalgam fillings weaken the teeth, the composite bonds to the tooth and makes the tooth less likely to break later on.
Comfortable – since they have no metal, tooth-colored fillings insulate your teeth against the cold.
Dependable – tooth-colored fillings last for many years. They actually help seal the teeth against recurrent decay.
Mercury-Free – the composite does not contain any mercury—a substance in amalgam fillings that many people consider harmful.

TransportationTableaux
======================

Solves a given Transportation Problem in Operations Research step-by-step!
Designed for teaching/demonstration purposes.

![The GUI for the program.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RussellAndrewEdson/TransportationTableaux/master/transportationtableaux_v3screenshot.png "Solving a transportation problem with the GUI")

The program has finally been released!

At this point, the program is completely functional.
A tutorial on how to use the program to solve a Transportation problem can be found in the User Guide.

For ease of use, an executable .jar file has been assembled that can be run in any Java Runtime Environment.
(All the Scala core libraries are bundled in as well -- convenient, though it does make the file quite hefty at ~8MB.)

Those that would like to play around with the source code are encouraged to use the Scala Build Tool (http://www.scala-sbt.org/), which easily retrieves all of the necessary Scala libraries and allows for the interfaces and tests to be run straight from the command line.

19/01 Update
------------

With the addition of the problem-balancing check, the program is finished in terms of functionality; it does everything that I wanted it to do. Of course there's some testing to be done to make sure I haven't broken anything with the update, but other than that, all that's left is housekeeping:
 - There's an aesthetic bug where the tableau resizes itself weirdly when the 'Step'/'Solve' button is first clicked and the Basic solution text appears. This doesn't affect functionality, but it looks a bit ugly where the textboxes/labels at the bottom of the left and right columns appear drawn over the boundary. Hopefully this can be remedied without having to -fix- the sizes of the tableau components.
 - Sometimes when resizing you need to click twice to get the window to resize itself properly. This obviously needs to be changed if possible.
 - There is some code clean-up I want to do: the CycleView class has some unnecessary duplication where the branching for the drawing is concerned, and the UiView/VjView and SupplyView/DemandView components should really be refactored into single classes that are parameterised by the text label (or even a single class for all 4 that is parameterised by both the label as well as the contained textboxes/labels, though this might be tricky to get the getter/setter methods chosen properly.)

9th Plate daguerreotype possibly the work of the Scottish Operator Thomas Davidson (1798 to 1878). I have been told that the gilt edging on the case is reminiscent of those used north of the border. Further credence to this attribution can be found etched on the back of the daguerreotype plate which reads "Exchange" "46". Davidson operated out (mainly taking daguerreotype portraits) of number 12 Royal Exchange in Edinburgh from 1839 to around 1853. He worked initially in optics but quickly got involved in taking daguerreotypes and calotypes in 1840. His Scottish clients included James Howie, James Good Tunny and his 200 students at the University of St Andrews and Sir David Brewster's son Captain Henry Brewster. In England, Henry Collen, Antoine Claudet and Calvert Richard Jones all recommended and used Davidson's optical lenses as did Hill and Adamson (Information gathered from John Hannavy's Encyclopedia of Nineteenth-Century Photography). Given that the pictured young man is the right age for university study, it is possible that this portrait features one of James Good Tunny's St Andrews students. The case is in excellent condition but the daguerreotype plate does have some light wisps. A nice unusual image potentially from a rare Scottish studio.

A new geometric approach for nonlinear independent component analysis (ICA) is presented in this paper. Nonlinear environment is modeled by the popular post nonlinear (PNL) scheme. To eliminate the nonlinearity in the observed signals, a novel linearizing method named as geometric post nonlinear ICA (gpICA) is introduced. Thereafter, a basic linear ICA is applied on these linearized signals to estimate the unknown sources. The proposed method is motivated by the fact that in a multidimensional space, a nonlinear mixture is represented by a nonlinear surface while a linear mixture is represented by a plane, a special form of the surface. Therefore, by geometrically transforming the surface representing a nonlinear mixture into a plane, the mixture can be linearized. Through simulations on different data sets, superior performance of gpICA algorithm has been shown with respect to other algorithms.

(LEAD) S. Korea hosts global forum on trade remedies
(ATTN: CHANGES photo)
SEOUL, July 3 (Yonhap) -- Trade remedy representatives and experts gathered in Seoul on Tuesday to discuss ways to promote free trade and ease trade disputes amid a smoldering trade war between the United States and China, Seoul's trade ministry said.
The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy hosted the "Seoul International Forum on Trade Remedies 2018" at the Convention and Exhibition Center to address concerns over rising protectionist trends.
Representatives from 20 nations, including the United States, China, the European Union and the World Trade Organization (WTO), shared consensus that the trade remedies should be used against unfair and illegal practices in a transparent manner, the ministry said.
The U.S. and China are on the brink of a full-scale trade war as both sides have threatened to impose new trade tariffs worth $50 billion starting Friday.
U.S. President Donald Trump laid out a list of more than 800 strategically important imports from China that would be subject to a 25 percent tariff, including cars. China vowed to retaliate with 25 percent tariffs on 659 U.S. products, ranging from soybeans and autos to seafood.
"Trade remedy organizations should be fairly and transparently operated in accordance with the WTO rules," Vice Industry Minister Lee In-ho said in an opening speech. "We should put concerted efforts toward raising predictability to tackle the trade protectionism and promote free trade."
As of June, 27 nations have imposed 202 import restrictions on Korean products in steel and metal (95), chemicals (61), fabric (13), and IT and electronics (10), according to the ministry.
The U.S. levied the highest number of trade remedy measures of 40, including the safeguard duties on Korean washers and solar products in February, followed by India with 30, while South Korea currently imposes anti-dumping duties on 18 items by 33 nations, it noted.
