but copy+paste the following if you want to see the actual issue in browser...jsfiddle fixes it somehow.

It actually works just fine in jsfiddle, but when I run it in my browser there's an issue with the child menu in the default full-size position (top-aligned) remaining at 0 opacity. It's the same in Chrome and Safari, and nearly certain it's an issue with the opacity not resolving itself after the animation commands, but it just seems strange that it only happens with the default child menu. If you remove the opacity:0; lines from the #fadein-menu-1/2/3/4 IDs, the submenu works again.
I feel like I'm just missing one blatant, stupid little thing...but I cannot find it for the life of me. Would really appreciate some help here.

A: The problem:
animation: fadein 1s ease-in 1.4s 1 forwards;

You are trying to fade-in the element which has opacity:0;. Your animation runs once it means the element fades-in and then the element return to the default style(opacity:0;). So you can not see those elements.
Solution: remove opacity from default style.
#fadein-menu-1 {
    /* Remove from all the elements */
    //opacity:0;
    -webkit-animation: fadein 1s ease-in 1s 1 forwards; /* Safari, Chrome and Opera > 12.1 */
       -moz-animation: fadein 1s ease-in 1s 1 forwards; /* Firefox < 16 */
        -ms-animation: fadein 1s ease-in 1s 1 forwards; /* Internet Explorer */
         -o-animation: fadein 1s ease-in 1s 1 forwards; /* Opera < 12.1 */
            animation: fadein 1s ease-in 1s 1 forwards;
}

It has been almost two weeks now since DotLoop updated their paperless transaction system for the Keller Williams eEdge system. For those of you who are a Keller Williams Agent, or any agent using this system, you are going to love the new system. I hope that you are getting in there and using it now, so you will be a pro in short order. It is easy to learn and will make your life easier if you take the time to learn all it has to offer.
To turn it on sign into your account, and then go to any Transaction page. When the page opens you will see the invite at the top of the page in a red strip. If you click to start, it will show you a short video, and then invite you to start the new system. Nervous? You can watch this really great 25 minute video to see all of the benefits and how it works prior to starting it. Or you can see a quick slide show of the Dotloop Features.
You can now invite anyone to see any document in a transaction, not just the buyer, seller and other agent. The Lender can see the offer to purchase. The Appraisor and inspector can be invited to upload the reports they create for the buyer to see. All documents in one place with only those who need to see them invited in.
DotLoop is just about to go mobile and you will actually be able to get signatures on your mobile devices soon.
If you switch over and feel buyers remorse, you can always switch back to the old system for a while. They are still working out the bugs, and already in the first week they quickly fixed around 35 of them. If you get stuck, there are several ways to get assistance. Try http://answers.kw.com/knowledgemanager/ and you will find a search box for questions. Here you can watch video's on a variety of eEdge topics.You may have to be logged in get get the pages to work for you. And if all else fails Keller Williams has a great group of people ready to assist you with all of the changes. You can call them at (512)306-7191.
Be sure you get in there and learn it sooner than later. There will be a final cut off date for the final switch. I have heard various dates ranging from 90 days to June 17th. I am still not sure when it will be, so getting it set and ready now would be a great thing to do.


EGX was yet again fantastic. This was my second year going, my first was two years ago, which was the last year the expo was held at Earls Court. When I saw all the pictures coming out of EGX from friends last year I was immediately jealous and disappointed I didn't go so I vowed that I would go this year and I am so glad that I did.
The main reason I attended EGX this year though wasn't for the games. It was for the people. I have made so many friends over the past few years and EGX is the chance where we get to meet up, talk and have a good time playing some games. Every evening was filled with drinks and good conversations but that's enough about the talking lets move onto the games I played!
One thing I will say about my first time at the NEC is that it was a lot less crowded than Earls Court, which I liked. The main reason why things seemed less packed is probably because there was no Microsoft or Nintendo, which a lot of people were surprised at considering the Scorpio and NX are coming. So it seemed like it was the year for Sony to shine and I think it's safe to say that they did with the inclusion of VR!
I wasn't even expecting to try out VR, I wasn't really that fussed because I know I am not going to be picking one up but me and a friend, out of curiosity, asked about it and they managed to get us a session. The VR game I tried was FarPoint. The synopsis was that I am an astronaut on a desert planet (could of been Mars) and I had to fight these mechanical alien Spiders. When I heard the story I was expecting to be given a controller but nope I was given a make-shift gun, which I obviously used to shoot and there was a analogue stick on the handle of the gun, which I used to move around. I thought this was a innovative and immersive way to control your character. Once I was in the game it took me a while to get used to it, not having much experience of VR. The Spiders were pretty creepy, especially when they jumped at your face and exploded. After a while I was getting the hang of it and shooting up every Spider that came into view. Every few minutes the scenery would change to another location on the desert planet and one of the most memorable was the one with a tight, narrow path on the side of a mountain and if I looked down to my left there was this massive drop. Now that certainly made my stomach go funny. Overall it was a fun experience, the shooting was pretty accurate and smooth and the only glitch I encountered was very early on and it was dealt with very quickly. As I said I know I am not going to be getting the Playstation VR, mainly because I think it's such a hassle, but I am very glad that I tried it out. It was a lot of fun and this technology is astounding and I hope it does really well.
One of the games I definitely knew I wanted to try at EGX this year was Dishonored 2. I've yet to complete the first game but playing this demo, twice might I add, has encouraged me to go back and make sure I finish it before 2 is released. The demo takes place quite a ways into the game and the objective is to rescue an old friend and then kill the man responsible for taking him. Now the cool choice that we are presented with before the demo begins is do we want to play as Corvo, the main protagonist from the first game, or Emily. We were told that if we wanted to try out something different then we should pick Emily but if we wanted to stick to what we already knew then we should pick Corvo. I chose Corvo both times mainly because that's what I felt most comfortable with. I didn't feel the controls were hard to get back into, when I got in the demo and was able to move around I felt like I remembered what each button does and I got straight to the business of killing the Clockwork soldiers with my explosive bullets and putting the human guards to sleep with the crossbow. With Corvo the combat mechanics feel very similar to the first game, with a few new added weapons. It didn't take long to get back into the mindset of a stealthy and lethal assassin thanks to the smooth combat. The only negative comment I can say about the demo is the FPS was choppy at times but that didn't affect my overall enjoyment of the game. As I said after playing this demo I am definitely going to finish the first game so that I can pick this one up.
The other game I wanted to mention was actually my game of the show. Mainly because of how much fun I had playing it. That game is Super Arcade Football an indie game developed by OutOfTheBit. I love football and football games so that interested me immediately but I am not a massive fan of indie games so that made me think am I actually going to enjoy this? and surprisingly I did. This is a fast paced and intense game. When I was playing it with my friend we both were yelling at the screen and having tons of fun with it. I gave away two penalties and received a red card and the game still managed to finish 0-0. We were both exhausted after playing this but it was so much fun and definitely worth picking up. Super Arcade Football is now available to buy on Steam. Go do it!
Those are the main games I tried out, which I really enjoyed. The other games I tried I will quickly mention were Gears of War 4, Sonic Mania, Elder Scrolls Legends and Little Nightmares. All of these games were enjoyable to play but just not for me. Overall I was very happy with EGX this year, The games I played I enjoyed, I got some good merchandise and met up with some awesome folks so I think it's safe to say I'll be heading back next year.
Did you go to EGX this year? Tell us what you enjoyed the most!


What Art Do You Make?
I've always equated art with painters and musicians. But according the Seth Godin in his book Leap First, art isn't only a painting. Art is anything that's creative, passionate, and personal. And great art resonates with the viewer, not only with the creator.
There's a small village in China that reproduces paintings as fast as they can. Based on Godin's definition of art, although these people are painters, they aren't artists. An artist is someone who gives his all to create something of value from the heart. Therefore, anyone can be and should be an artist.
Art is not just about paint, marble or music. It can also be numbers, how you relate to people and strategic planning. Art is about giving value to the world through what you do. The most successful are those that have found their art and shared it selflessly. Pacquiao is an artist. Steve Jobs is an artist. Warren Buffet is an artist.
I used to paint and draw a lot when I was a kid. Here are two of the paintings I made when I was in college.
But although I enjoy painting, it's not my passion. What I really love to do is connect with people. To build relationships and learn from them. That's why I enjoy being a real estate broker, writing and public speaking. As a broker, I can reach out to people while providing valuable service to them. As a writer, I get to share my thoughts through my blog. As a speaker, I get to communicate my ideas to the audience.
The other day I met a client who works for the army. While we were touring around Xavier Estates, he shared to me how hard it was to be in the army because of the constant danger they had to face. Now that he was getting married, he wanted to invest in a lot so he could build his fiancée their dream house. Yes, one of my favorite topics with my clients is their love life. And they love talking about it So I showed him a lot in Xavier Estates which he liked and we're currently negotiating with the seller on the final price. Hopefully, all goes well. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Whenever I get to help out clients in finding their dream home, when I connect with them through their stories, I remember why I love my job. Seriously, being a real estate broker is the best job in the world. I have so much fun doing it that most of the time, it doesn't even feel like I'm working.
Reading about Seth Godin's definition of art made me think, what is my art form? And I realized, this is it. This is my art form. Connecting with people is my art. And through that, I can do my job which is to help fill their real estate needs whether it is to buy or sell property. The essence of good communication is building a connection with your client. No matter how good you are in presenting your product, if you don't have that connection, you're just making noise.
We are all artists in our own way. When you do what you do the best way you can, when you create meaningful work and share it selflessly to the world, then you're an artist. It doesn't matter if you have never made a single painting in your life.
I believe that our art is meant to be shared to bless people and make the world a better place. And if there's someone who doesn't appreciate your art, don't sweat it. It's not for them. I've had clients who chose other brokers to serve them. And it's ok. At this time, my art is not for them. But for those clients who chose me, then I'll serve them to the best of my ability. Because I see connecting to people as a real estate broker as my art. And I want to make the best art I can.
What about you, what is your art?
You are an artist. And being a unique individual, you can produce art that no one else can. Whatever art you make, make it special, make it unique, make it you.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV es un software ERP (por sus siglas en inglés: enterprise resource planning). Microsoft Dynamics NAV forma parte de la familia de productos Microsoft Dynamics.

Ha pasado por varios nombres desde 1995. Los nombres Navision Financials, Navision Attain, Microsoft Business Solutions Navision, Microsoft Dynamics NAV y el actual Dynamics 365 Business Central hacen referencia al mismo producto.

Arquitectura
Microsoft Dynamics NAV es un software multicapa, lo que significa que la ejecución es realizada por distintos componentes de software, que en este caso son:
 El servidor de base de datos para almacenar la información. Dynamics NAV utiliza únicamente Microsoft SQL Server.
 El servidor de aplicaciones que trata los datos aplicando lógica y reglas de negocio. Dynamics NAV incluye su propio servidor de aplicaciones denominado NST (NAV Service Tier).
 El cliente que es el encargado de recoger y visualizar la información de manera entendible y agradable para los humanos. Se incluyen los siguientes:
Cliente Windows (aplicación de escritorio de Windows)
Cliente Web (accesible mediante cualquier navegador)
Cliente tableta y teléfono inteligente (app disponible para Windows Phone, Apple y Android)
Cliente Sharepoint (integrado en portal de Sharepoint)
Cliente API (permite el acceso a la lógica de negocio a terceras aplicaciones mediante web services)
Cliente NAS (sesión desatendida sin interface para ejecutar procesos)

Áreas funcionales
Microsoft Dynamics NAV es un ERP orientado a roles. El sistema está basado en las personas dentro de una organización, su rol, y las tareas que llevan a cabo. Cuando los usuarios entran por primera vez a Microsoft Dynamics NAV, entran a la página de su rol, viendo así la información que necesitan para realizar sus tareas diarias, según su rol.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV cubre las siguientes áreas funcionales dentro de una organización:
 Gestión Financiera. En el área de Gestión Financiera se cubren las siguiente funcionalidades: contabilidad, presupuestos, esquemas de cuentas, informes financieros, gestión de tesorería, efectos a cobrar y a pagar, activos fijos, declaraciones de IVA, registros entre empresas, contabilidad de costes, consolidación, divisas, e Intrastat.
 Ventas y Marketing. Esta área cubre la gestión de clientes, procesamiento de pedidos, precios, contactos, marketing, campañas, etc.

El código fuente de Microsoft Dynamics NAV es accesible con la licencia adecuada, por lo que el producto es altamente personalizable. Esto quiere decir que es posible crear una nueva área funcional y añadirla al sistema, completando la funcionalidad estándar. También es posible añadir nueva funcionalidad a las áreas existentes.  De hecho existen más de 2000 soluciones desarrolladas y registradas, que amplían considerablemente la funcionalidad de las soluciones.

Historia
Dynamics NAV fue inicialmente desarrollado por una empresa danesa. El programa se llamaba Navision A/S que nació como una mezcla entre las empresas Navision Software A/S y Damgaard A/S. Las compañías fueron fundadas en Dinamarca en 1984 y 1983, respectivamente.

"La belleza de la simplicidad" pronto fue adoptado como el primer lema de la compañía,  comunicando con claridad la estrategia de hacer que el software sea lo más simple posible, una estrategia que se observó rigurosamente en cada versión posterior en años sucesivos.

En 1987, la compañía decidió cambiar su nombre un tanto críptico de PC&C, por "Navision Software". Al mismo tiempo, su software de contabilidad ya establecido también cambió de nombre y pasó a ser Navigator.  Además del nuevo nombre, mucho más había de nuevo con la nueva versión.

Navigator contenía una lista de características difíciles de encontrar en productos de la competencia, como:

 Cliente/servidor
 Entorno multi-usuario con aislamiento de transacción basada en versiones
 Diseñador de informes
 Funcionalidad analítica basada en las dimensiones, que se asemejaban a las herramientas OLAP contemporáneas

En España, en 1992, Jesús García Lecuona, Alejandro Pradas y Fernando del Barrio se "subieron al tren" e iniciaron el proyecto común de PC&C Ibérica. En breve periodo se convirtió en la tercera en orden de importancia en Europa tras Dinamarca y Alemania gracias al alto nivel de cualificación de la red de distribución creada por sus fundadores.

El 11 de julio de 2002, Microsoft compró Navision A/S y lo incluyó dentro de su división Microsoft Business Solution. El programa ha sufrido distintos cambios de nombres. Los nombres Navision Financials, Navision Attain y Microsoft Business solutions Navision Edition se han usado para referirse al producto que ahora se llama Microsoft Dynamics NAV.

A principios de la década de 1990, con el lanzamiento de Navision 3.04, el lenguaje de programación C/AL fue introducido junto con las herramientas de desarrollo para poder diseñar pantallas, tablas, informes, importaciones, procesos por lotes, y funciones. Esta forma de diseñar la aplicación se ha mantenido a través de los años.
La herramienta de desarrollo sufrió un cambio importante cuando las páginas y los informes SRS (SQL Reporting Services) aparecieron con el lanzamiento de Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009, que también incluía la posibilidad de usar el framework de.NET en el lenguaje C/AL.

La introducción de los informes SRS supusieron un gran cambio, ya que el diseño gráfico de los informes, la disposición de los campos dentro del informe, se tenía que realizar fuera de Dynamics NAV. La herramienta para diseñar informes es Visual Studio. El motivo del cambio fue poder aprovechar las ventajas de la tecnología de los Reporting Services de Microsoft SQL Server.

Con el lanzamiento de Navision Financials 2.50, se introdujo la opción de usar Microsoft SQL Server como base de datos. Desde Navision Financials 2.50 hasta Dynamics NAV 2009, coexistieron dos bases de datos distintas: el servidor Nativo y el servidor de SQL. Con la versión Dynamics NAV 2013, desaparece el servidor Nativo y Microsoft SQL Server se queda como la única opción para la capa de base de datos.

Al desaparecer el Servidor Nativo, Dynamics NAV se pudo deshacer de restricciones existentes hasta el momento, que estaba ahí para asegurar la compatibilidad entre los dos servidores. Por ejemplo, Dynamics NAV 2013 incorpora un nuevo objeto llamado Query que permite, entre otros, especificar un conjunto de datos procedentes de múltiples tablas. El objeto Query se transforma en una única sentencia SQL, que puede hacer uso de la cláusula JOIN de SQL.
En el antiguo servidor Nativo no era posible usar múltiples tablas como fuente de datos. Al desaparecer el servidor Nativo, también fue posible deshacerse de la restricción.

El lanzamiento de Microsoft Business Solutions NAV 4.0 supuso la introducción de un nuevo menú, que cambió por completo la estructura de menús del programa. Fue el primer paso para orientar el menú a los roles. La apariencia de ese nuevo menú recordaba al menú de Microsoft Office, haciendo que Dynamics NAV se acercara a otros productos de Microsoft.

En la actualidad Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2015 se diferencia principalmente de la versión anterior por ofrecer la aplicabilidad móvil. Este avance responde a las demandas del mercado en cuanto a la variedad de dispositivos, como tabletas o móviles. También se optimiza la visualización de datos, el proceso de creación de informes y ya está en la nube de la mano de Microsoft Azure y Office 365.

Las posteriores versiones de la aplicación han sido: Dynamics NAV 2016 (versión 9.00), Dynamics NAV 2017 (v. 10.00), Dynamics NAV 2018 (v.11.00).
A partir de 2018, las futuras versiones van a ser renombradas bajo el término de Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Se trata de una aplicación pensada para ser almacenada en cloud, aunque parece que por el momento se mantendrá una versión "on-premise" (en local).

The Interim Financial Report for Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA has been prepared according to Section 115 of the German Securities Trading Act (Wertpapierhandelsgesetz – WpHG) and has been subject to a limited review by the Group's auditor. It complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the related interpretations (IFRIC) of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC) applicable in the European Union (EU-IFRS) and contains Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, including selected explanatory notes. This report was prepared – with the exception of the financial reporting standards applied for the first time in the current financial year – using fundamentally the same accounting and measurement policies as in the Consolidated Financial Statements of December 31, 2017. A detailed description of these policies is presented in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2017 Annual Report.
In terms of the merits and the amount, the effects from the first-time application of the new financial reporting standards IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers essentially meet the expectations presented in the 2017 Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following sections provide explanations of the new accounting and measurement policies applied since January 1, 2018, with regard to the financial instruments and revenues from contracts with customers where they differ from those applied as of December 31, 2017.
IFRS 9 replaces the provisions of IAS 39 – the recognition, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, derecognition of financial instruments, impairment of financial assets, and hedge accounting. IFRS 9 introduces new rules for classifying and measuring financial assets and includes new rules for impairment of financial instruments. A detailed description of the new impairment model can be found in the 2017 Annual Report in the section "Impact of Issued Financial Reporting Standards That Are Not Yet Effective" on page 53. Bertelsmann makes use of the exception and does not adjust comparative information from the prior period. As a result, only the opening balance as of January 1, 2018, has been adjusted.
The following table presents the classification and measurement categories for financial assets in accordance with IAS 39, the reconciliation to the new classification and measurement categories in accordance with IFRS 9 and the respective carrying amounts as of January 1, 2018.
at fair value with changes in fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
In accordance with IFRS 9, equity instruments where the Bertelsmann Group has neither control nor significant influence are classified as a rule at fair value through profit or loss. Bertelsmann exercises the option granted by IFRS 9 to measure at fair value through other comprehensive income mainly for individual immaterial investments. These equity instruments were already measured at fair value in accordance with IAS 39, so that as of January 1, 2018, there was no financial impact from the measurement of these financial instruments. As of January 1, 2018, and at the end of the reporting period of these Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the Bertelsmann Group held no debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Certain investments in debt instruments, primarily so-called fund-of-fund investments purchased by the Bertelsmann Investments division, were reclassified into the category of fair value through profit or loss because their contractual cash flows did not represent solely principal and interest payments. The revised method for determining impairment results in an increase of impairment by €9 million.
The first-time application of IFRS 9 had no impact on the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. Within the class of derivative financial instruments in hedge relationships, there were no reclassifications from or to other classes due to IFRS 9.
Under IFRS 15, the former risk and reward approach has been replaced by a contract-based five-step model, which serves as the basis for initially identifying and distinguishing the relevant contracts with customers in the Bertelsmann Group. In a next step, the separate performance obligations explicitly or implicitly stipulated in the contract are identified, and the contract is examined for fixed and variable consideration in order to use this as a basis for determining the respective transaction price. In doing so, constraining estimates of variable consideration are adequately taken into account. If more than one separate performance obligation is identified in a contract, the transaction price is then allocated to the identified performance obligations using the method of relative stand-alone selling prices, which are generally determined as prices on the markets relevant for the respective customers. Revenue recognition occurs upon satisfaction of the performance obligation either at a point in time or over time, depending on the underlying business model. If necessary, principal-agent considerations are also taken into account in analyzing the contracts.
Services: Services are generally rendered over a period of time, and the revenue is recognized based on an appropriate output- or input-based method for measuring progress. If permissible, revenues are recognized in the amount of the invoice if this amount corresponds to the value of the performance provided.
Advertising: Advertising services are generally rendered over a period of time, and revenue is recognized on the basis of an appropriate output-based measure of progress.
Rights and licenses: The timing of revenue recognition for business models generating revenue from licenses depend on whether the license represents a right to access the intellectual property through the entire licensing period or a right to use when the license is granted. In particular, the underlying contracts are analyzed to determine whether the licensee is exposed to significant changes to the intellectual property or whether the intellectual property remains in the condition defined upon entering into the contract throughout the term of the contract with regard to its content and scope. While revenues from licenses granted for a right to use are realized at the date of the transfer of control, revenues from licenses for rights to access are realized over a period of time throughout the term of the contract. The majority of licenses granted in the TV business represents a right to use of intellectual property at the date the license is granted, and as a result, revenue is recognized at the point in time the license is granted to the licensee. Rights to access are extensively used in the music business, and the revenues for these are recognized throughout the term of the contract.
The costs associated with obtaining contracts are not capitalized if the underlying asset is amortized in no more than 12 months.
The value of consideration is not adjusted for the effects of a material financing component if the financing component pertains to a period of no more than 12 months.
The Bertelsmann Group has not opted for early adoption of any standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective.
IFRS 16 Leases, issued in January 2016, sets out principles for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements for leases. Application of the standard is mandatory for financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Due to the recognition of the right-of-use of the underlying leased objects and due to the recognition of the lease liability, the application of IFRS 16 will have a material impact on the consolidated balance sheet of the Bertelsmann Group. Concerning the consolidated income statement, under IFRS 16, the depreciation of the right-of-use assets and the interest expense for the lease liabilities will be recognized in place of other operating expenses for operating leases. With regard to the assessment of the expected impacts of IFRS 16, which has not yet been applied, there were no material changes in the first half of 2018 compared to the expectations presented in the 2017 Consolidated Financial Statements. Further information on this topic is presented in the 2017 Annual Report.
The Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2018, include Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA and all material subsidiaries over which Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA is able to exercise control in accordance with IFRS 10. Joint ventures and associates are accounted for using the equity method in accordance with IAS 28. As of June 30, 2018, the scope of consolidation including Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA consists of 1,003 companies (December 31, 2017: 970) with 53 entries and 20 exits in the first half of 2018. This includes 909 (December 31, 2017: 879) consolidated companies. In addition, investments in 27 (December 31, 2017: 28) joint ventures and 67 (December 31, 2017: 63) associates are accounted for using the equity method in the Consolidated Financial Statements. A total of 185 (December 31, 2017: 213) companies without significant business operations is excluded from the scope of consolidation due to their negligible importance for the financial position and financial performance of the Bertelsmann Group.
In the first half of 2018, the cash flow from acquisition activities totaled €-68 million, of which, after consideration of cash and cash equivalents acquired, €-31 million relates to new acquisitions during the first half of the year. The consideration transferred amounted to €68 million taking into account contingent consideration totaling €4 million.
In February 2018, Bertelsmann Education Group increased its interest in the US university services provider HotChalk by 36 percent through the conversion of a loan granted, the conversion of previously held shares into newly issued shares and the direct acquisition of additional shares. The acquisition of the majority interest in HotChalk strengthens Bertelsmann Education Group's position in the services segment of the US education market. As a result of obtaining control, the investment previously accounted for using the equity method is fully consolidated from the date of acquisition. The consideration transferred was €28 million, of which a cash contribution to HotChalk amounted to €11 million. Obtaining control led to a derecognition of the investment previously accounted for using the equity method, whose fair value amounted to €127 million immediately before the acquisition date, and to a reclassification of the associated share of other comprehensive income of investments accounted for using the equity method amounting to €-13 million in profit or loss in the item "Results from disposals of investments." The remeasurement of the investment already held resulted in other operating income of €2 million. Non-tax-deductible goodwill from the purchase price allocation amounted to €71 million and resulted primarily from synergies, employees taken over and new customer potential. The initial consolidation led to an immaterial increase in Group revenues and an immaterial reduction in Group profit or loss. Consolidation of HotChalk from January 1, 2018, would have also resulted in an immaterial increase in the Group revenues and an immaterial reduction in Group profit or loss. Transaction-related costs were not material in the first half of 2018 and have been recognized in profit or loss.
In addition, the Bertelsmann Group made several acquisitions in the first half of 2018, none of which was material on a standalone basis. Payments net of acquired cash and cash equivalents amounted to €-33 million; the consideration transferred in accordance with IFRS 3 for these acquisitions amounted to €40 million taking into account contingent consideration of €4 million. The other acquisitions resulted in goodwill totaling €35 million, which reflects synergy potential and is not tax deductible. Transaction-related costs were not material in the first half of 2018 and have been recognized in profit or loss.
The purchase price allocations consider all the facts and circumstances prevailing as of the respective dates of acquisition that were known prior to preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. In accordance with IFRS 3, should further facts and circumstances become known within the 12-month measurement period, the purchase price allocation will be adjusted accordingly.
Since initial consolidation, all new acquisitions in accordance with IFRS 3 in the first half of 2018 have contributed €25 million to revenue and €-11 million to Group profit or loss. If consolidated as of January 1, 2018, these would have contributed €41 million to revenue and €-8 million to Group profit or loss.
The following euro exchange rates were used to translate the currencies most significant to the Bertelsmann Group.
Group revenues are primarily generated from contracts with customers in accordance with IFRS 15. Other revenues not in the scope of IFRS 15 result from financial services in the Arvato division.
As prior-year figures have not been adjusted in accordance with the transitional provisions of IFRS 15, they are not included in this table.
The revenues reported by source of revenue and geographical areas reflect exclusively the revenues in accordance with IFRS 15 and consequently differ from the breakdown of revenues in segment reporting.
The principles and methods used for the fair value measurement remain unchanged compared to those used in the previous year. Only disclosures on financial instruments that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and financial performance since the end of the last annual reporting period are explained below.
The following hierarchy is used to determine the fair value of financial instruments.
The fair value of the listed financial instruments – including those in the Bertelsmann Investments division – is determined on the basis of stock exchange listings at the end of the reporting period. That applies regardless of whether any contractual lockups are in place at the end of the reporting period for financial instruments held by Bertelsmann.
For measuring the fair value of unlisted derivatives, Bertelsmann uses various financial methods reflecting the prevailing market conditions and risks at the respective balance sheet dates. Irrespective of the type of financial instrument, future cash flows are discounted at the end of the reporting period based on the respective market interest rates and yield curves at the end of the reporting period.
The fair value of forward exchange transactions is calculated using the average spot prices at the end of the reporting period and taking into account forward markdowns and markups for the remaining term of the transactions. The fair value of interest rate derivatives is calculated on the basis of the respective market rates and yield curves at the end of the reporting period. The fair value of forward commodity transactions is derived from the stock exchange listings published at the end of the reporting period. Any incongruities to the standardized stock exchange contracts are reflected through interpolation or additions.
If no observable market data is available, fair value measurement is based primarily on cash flow-based valuation techniques. As a rule, qualified financing rounds are used for minority stakes in the Bertelsmann Investments division.
The measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities according to level 2 and level 3 requires management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs including cash flows, discount rate and credit risk, as well as the life and development cycle of start-up investments.
The option offered in IFRS 13.48 (net risk position) is used for measuring the fair value of financial derivatives. To identify the credit exposure from financial derivatives, the respective net position of the fair values with the contractual partners is used as a basis, as these are managed based on a net position in view of their market or credit default risks.
The measurement category "fair value through profit or loss" mainly includes the minority stakes in other entities and so-called fund-of-fund investments purchased by the Bertelsmann Investments division. With deferred taxes taken into consideration, the gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in the fair value are recognized in profit or loss. As a rule, the fair value measurement of fund-of-fund investments is based on the valuations of the external management as presented in regular reporting and taking into account a fungibility discount. The fair value of listed minority stakes is based on quoted (unadjusted) market prices at the end of the reporting period. When possible, measuring fair value of minority stakes in other entities is based on observable prices obtained as part of the most recently implemented qualified financing rounds, taking into account the life and development cycle of the entity.
The market value of the 2001 profit participation certificates with a closing rate of 336.00 percent on the last day of trading in the first half of 2018 on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange was €955 million (December 31, 2017: €950 million with a rate of 334.00 percent) and, correspondingly, €33 million for the 1992 profit participation certificates with a rate of 195.00 percent (December 31, 2017: €34 million with a rate of 199.00 percent). The market values are based on level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
In June 2018, a fixed interest promissory note in the amount of €200 million was repaid on time.
On June 30, 2018, the cumulative market value of the listed bonds totaled €3,600 million (December 31, 2017: €3,695 million) with a nominal volume of €3,500 million (December 31, 2017: €3,500 million) and a carrying amount of €3,477 million (December 31, 2017: €3,476 million). The stock market prices are based on level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. On June 30, 2018, the total carrying amount of the private placements and promissory notes totaled €709 million (December 31, 2017: €908 million), and the total market value amounted to €749 million (December 31, 2017: €949 million). The fair values of private placements and promissory notes are determined using actuarial methods based on yield curves adjusted for the Group's credit margin. This credit margin results from the market price for credit default swaps at the end of the respective reporting periods. Fair value is measured on the basis of discount rates ranging from -0.32 percent to 1.82 percent. The fair values of the private placements and promissory notes are based on level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The tax expense for the first half of 2018 was calculated in accordance with IAS 34 using the average annual tax rate expected for the whole of 2018, which is calculated at 33.1 percent according to Bertelsmann management's current estimation. In addition, non-recurring tax items have been recognized in current tax and deferred tax, which resulted in a lower tax rate in the income statement.
The tax expense for the first half of 2018 was lower than in the same period of the previous year, in particular due to lower earnings before taxes and higher positive non-recurring items in the tax result.
As a result of seasonal influences on the divisions, higher revenues and a higher operating result tend to be expected in the second half of the year compared to the first half of the year. The higher revenues in the second half of the year are primarily due to the increasing demand during the year-end holiday season, in particular in advertising-driven businesses and in the publishing business, as well as to the customary seasonality in the music business.
Within the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, the item "Proceeds from/redemption of other financial debt" includes receipts in the amount of €440 million and payments in the amount of €-146 million. The receipts include net inflows from a bank loan in order to finance a short-term funding requirement of €400 million. Payments include the repayment of €-52 million by Penguin Random House of a loan from Pearson and the repayment of €-20 million by HotChalk of a loan from Pinnacle Bank.
Segment reporting continues to reflect eight operating reportable segments (RTL Group, Penguin Random House, Gruner + Jahr, BMG, Arvato, Bertelsmann Printing Group, Bertelsmann Education Group and Bertelsmann Investments)..
In July 2018, Bertelsmann issued a floating rate note with a volume of €200 million and a term of up to two years as part of a private placement.
In July 2018, Groupe M6, which belongs to RTL Group, announced that it had entered into exclusive negotiations with the US-based investment fund GACP, with a view to selling its entire shareholding in the Football Club Girondins de Bordeaux (FCGB). Completion of the transaction remains subject to finalization of the negotiations, consultation with employee representative bodies and approval from the Bordeaux Métropole Council regarding the guarantees offered by GACP in relation to the lease payments owed by FCGB for use of the stadium.

Businesses looking for space within a Grade A London office building will soon be able to rent an office within in the Cheesegrater as a serviced office specialist is to open a business centre within the iconic skyscraper.
Australian serviced office company Servcorp has signed up to take 12,000 sq ft of space in the Cheesegrater, becoming the first company to let a complete single floor within the London office building. The business centre will be situated on Level 30 of the impressive skyscraper, which is due to reach completion in Spring/Summer this year.
The company already operates a business centre on Old Broad Street within the City and they also have a London office building in Canary Wharf. The Cheesegrater location will be their tenth business centre in Europe.
Servcorp specialises in providing serviced office space within iconic buildings. They have business centres in major cities around the world, including The Seagram Building in New York, Emirates Towers in Dubai, and IFC 2 in Hong Kong. Altogether, the company operates more than 130 locations worldwide.
Their Cheesegrater offering will bring high-grade flexible space to yet another new iconic London office building, throwing down the gauntlet to other serviced office providers based within the many City skyscrapers. They will face some tough competition, with Heron Tower and the Gherkin home to some of the most prestigious and impressive business centres in the capital.
British Land and Oxford Properties' dramatic high-rise building looks set to become one of the success stories of the recent London skyscraper boom. While this new Cheesegrater style London office building steadily fills up with tenants, the Shard is still largely empty and is reportedly now struggling to attract residential tenants for its luxury apartments. The skyscraper celebrated pre-launch as the vertical city is beginning to look more and more like a vertical ghost town.
Meanwhile, The Walkie-Talkie – also due for completion this year – suffered a setback in 2013 when it was discovered that the building's concave surface was reflecting the sun's rays at such a high intensity that it was melting nearby cars and bikes.
Plans to restart the stalled Pinnacle building are also currently on pause, while negotiations to find a new investor take place. In the meantime, the Cheesegrater continues to lead the pack.
Is the Cheesegrater set to be the skyscraper success story of 2014? Tell us what you think in the comments.

A new World Auction Record was set on Wednesday 27 March for American artist, Ray Parker with 'Untitled, 1960' achieving £71,250 including premium during our inaugural MODERN MADE auction in London.
Ray Parker was closely associated with the Abstract Expressionist school of art, Colour Field painting and Lyrical Abstraction. He was an influential teacher, holding posts at the University of Minnesota and was instrumental in Post-Painterly Abstraction, a movement coined by the critic Clement Greenberg.
'Untitled, 1960' comes from an important period of Parker's oeuvre when he turned to "simple painting". Here we find that form and content have been stripped away and cleared to free the colour to be on its own, cloud-like forms of intense colour set against an off-white background.
Parker wrote 'The simple paintings…were made then with the thought that cutting out everything else but pigment on ground would let color tell the whole story. I found images that floated, rested heavily, hung, nudged, bumped, touched, hovered in vast voids of separation, were many, were few, isolated, single, alone. Today these paintings are still quiescent, bound by the gravity that makes bodies in orbit hang in a stillness where the slowest movement marks the space from one to another."
His work of this period would lay the ground work for Colour Field and minimalist paintings of the 1960s in America, and was influential on a whole array of artists including Ellsworth Kelly, Helen Frankenthaler and Friedel Dzudas.

Observations from a rock who has been around a long, long time.
Why do people think they know everything?
And they say a box of rocks is dumb!
Published on November 28, 2011 By TheTalkingRock In Humor
My close personal friend, Mr. Coal, has a great sense of humor. He told me the other day that he overheard a radio program that one of the miners digging him up was listening to. Evidently many humans think the Universe was created by a rapid expansion of a singularity. They call it the "big bang theory". So let me explain it better. Before there was a Universe and everything in it, like matter, mass, energy, and even time, there was absolutely nothing. Then one day, for reasons unknown, something came from this nothing and expanded into what is now everything.
I guess you know there are laws that cannot be broken? Take for example the laws of physics, namely those of thermodynamics, where the second law says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. It can only change forms. I guess no one told this law to the big bang people. When scientists come up with an idea that they cannot empirically prove with hard evidence they come up with a big story. Take comets for example, no one has any idea how they came about. No one has ever seen a comet being born and that really bothered a man named Jan Oort who decided that since he watched a comet sail by in his telescope that it had to come from somewhere. Oort had been told that if someone repeats a lie enough, people believe it as a fact. So Oort started telling anyone who would listen that comets come from a cloud. But that wasn't enough because he knew people would ask to see that cloud of comets so he came up with a brilliant excuse, he said the cloud was too far away to see even with the best telescopes. That kept most of the skeptics satisfied and other astrologers were so impressed they named the cloud ofter Oort. When Oort went around telling people about his cloud and someone asked "If you can't see it, how do you know it is there?", Oort would look at the other people in the audience and roll his eyes. Then the audience would start giggling and saying "Idiot" in low whispers until the person that asked the question got really embarrassed and sat down.

Filmmaker Wanted to Film My Story
Other Film & Stage Crew wanted
My story is based on my school days of a dream to own my own grocery store. The work is a drama type and according to the reviewers, it's a sad story to see how as a schoolboy his dream did eventually become a reality after spending most of his life working on it but with difficulties and then to see it end in a nightmare. I need a feature film produced with characters to portray family members. There is a 116-page screenplay on the story.
This is a recent review of the story: This is the review:
Boyhood Dreams, consisting of 361 pages and 30 chapters is truly an epic autobiography of Author John Scully. It provides a detailed account of his life of abject poverty and extreme targeting to a life of high attainment and self-actualization. It is certainly a page-turner, and his audience will be enthralled by the fast-paced and shocking events that have affected his life as well as his loved ones.
The author lives with his parents, his four sisters, and Brother Mick in County Kildare, Ireland, during the postwar era. His home lacks many essential items. He attends school barefooted and is also a constant target for bullying from his schoolmates and surprisingly, his teacher.
Because life in his community seems so hopeless, he journeys to England to work towards realizing his dream of owning his own grocery store. In England, he is able to secure several jobs of which he has excelled. His path intertwines with Barbara who later becomes his wife.
Upon amassing enough financial gains, he, his wife and child return to Ireland where he opens his grocery store of which he has long dreamt about. He soon finds out that his community is no longer a simplistic and restrained one. It is now riddled with crime, police corruption, and political influences. His business, however, thrived and thus becomes the target for vandalism. Instead of rendering assistance, he encounters several cases of abuse occasionally at the hand of the Gardaí. Will Mr. Scully survive these constraints or will he be forced to return to England?

Q: Radio Button List OnClick fires from the text area, giving different result for Check When I click on the text of a radio button, OnClick fires and shows the currently selected button as CHECKED. When I click directly on the radio button, it fires and shows the button I just clicked as CHECKED. I would expect the text or button to act the same. Is there a way to recognize this difference?
Here is my radion button list:
Select Mode:
<asp:RadioButtonList ID="RadBtnMode" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
    BackColor="#CCCCFF" BorderStyle="Groove" BorderWidth="3px" Width="130px"
    Height="16px" RepeatDirection="Horizontal" cssClass="radioWrap">
    <asp:ListItem Enabled="False" Selected="True">Add</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Enabled="False" Value="Search">Search</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Enabled="False">Edit</asp:ListItem>
</asp:RadioButtonList>

During Page Load, I enable buttons depending on the user and I set up this confirmation box:
RadBtnMode.Attributes.Add("onclick", "return ConfirmAdd()")

Which calls this Java

When I click within the circle of the radio buttons, it does what I want, and warns the user that I will clear the screen because they are switching to Add mode. When I click on the text of the "Search" button and "Add" is the current selection, it considers "Add" to be Checked, and puts up the warning. It then fires a second time and functions as expected.
Edited to include output HTML

<input id="RadBtnMode_0" type="radio" name="RadBtnMode" value="Add" checked="checked" />Add
<input id="RadBtnMode_1" type="radio" name="RadBtnMode" value="Search" onclick="javascript:setTimeout('__doPostBack(\'RadBtnMode$1\',\'\')', 0)" />Search

<input id="RadBtnMode_2" type="radio" name="RadBtnMode" value="Edit" disabled="disabled" onclick="javascript:setTimeout('__doPostBack(\'RadBtnMode$2\',\'\')', 0)" />Edit

A: It looks to me that the main issue is with the server-side code (the confirm actually ask the user if he wants to enter the "add mode"). It may also be an issue with attaching the onclick event on the table itself - this may cause the even to fire before the change from one radio button to the next is finished.
Maybe include the relevant part of what happens as a result of switching between the two radio buttons.


At the Mass of the Holy Spirit on September 7, faculty, staff, parents and students paused to celebrate faculty achievement with the annual presentation of the Patricia Hannon Ignatian Educator Award. Named in honor of the late Mrs. Patricia Hannon—a teacher of the highest caliber, who not only shared her knowledge and passion for chemistry with countless students over her 23-year career, but also touched just as many hearts in the process—the Ignatian Educator Award recognizes a faculty member whose dedication to his or her students fosters a learning environment that is the model of Ignatian pedagogy. In keeping with these lofty standards, this year's award was presented to Mr. John Donodeo.
John had taught for 7 years before arriving at Regis, where he has been a physical education teacher for 31 years. He has been an academic advisor, Chair of the Physical Education department, and a member of the Academic Committee, and a beloved guest auctioneer at the annual Regis Parents' Club Auction. He holds a bachelor's degree in Physical Education from Manhattan College and a Masters in Health Education from Penn State University. He has been honored by Manhattan College with a Distinguished Service award for his dedication and accomplishments as an educator. He has been an innovative teacher at Regis and he single-handedly brought Tchoukball to Regis. His is a living example for his students of an active and healthy life whether demonstrating on gymnastics equipment in a gym class, running New York marathons, or climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.

In November 2006, after extensive consultations with Nunavut communities, the Legislative Assembly
unanimously passed the Family Abuse Intervention Act (FAIA). FAIA came into Force on March 01, 2008. The
intent of the legislation is to provide Nunavummiut with the tools to holistically intervene and to prevent abuse
by focusing on the immediate need for safety, with simple and efficient processes that are consistent with Inuit
values. The spirit and intent of FAIA is to prevent abuse and decrease the escalation of abuse.
Under FAIA there are 4 remedies available: Emergency Protection Orders (EPOs), Community Intervention Orders
(CIOs), Assistance Orders and Compensation Orders. The Community Justice Division of the Department of Justice
is responsible for ensuring that Nunavummiut are able to access two FAIA remedies; EPOs and CIOs, in each
community across Nunavut. Community Justice Outreach Workers (CJOWs) and the Community Justice Specialists
are the personnel responsible for the assistance and support with these two remedies. Justices of the Peace (JPs)
specifically designated as FAIA JPs, hold the initial FAIA hearings and applications to vary the provisions. Appeals
of the JPs' decisions may be heard by a judge of the Nunavut Court of Justice.
Terms and Definitions:
Emergency Protection Order (EPO): An order granted under subsection 7 of Family Abuse Intervention Act (FAIA)
by a Designated JP when the JP is satisfied that:
a) Family abuse has occurred.
b) There is a reasonable likelihood that the family abuse will continue, resume or be repeated.
c) By reason of seriousness or urgency, it is necessary for the immediate protection of a person.
d) A family relationship exists.
EPOs are meant to provide applicants with immediate protection from family abuse in situations where the need
is urgent and the risks are imminent.
Community Intervention Order (CIO): An order granted under subsection 17 of FAIA by a Designated Justice of
the Peace (JP) when they are satisfied that:
b) It is appropriate to make the order.
c) A family relationship exists.
CIOs can be applied for by people who are experiencing family abuse but wish to remain in the relationship. CIOs
are applied for in non-emergency situations so people can address the root causes of the abuse, and undergo
counseling and/or education. Both the applicant and respondent will see their chosen respective counsellor as
outlined in the CIO. Each can choose a traditional counsellor, an Elder, a family member, a professional counsellor,
or a Justice Committee member.
Traditional Counselor: An Elder or a specified respected member of the community. Could also be a group of
specified members of either or both the applicant's and respondent's families.
Variation of Order: If there has been a material change in circumstances for the applicant and/or the respondent,
an application to vary (change) the EPO can be submitted, on notice to the other party, to the designated Justice
of Peace who granted the original EPO. The variation of one or more provisions of an order does not affect the
other provision in the order.
Revocation of Order: If there has been a material change in the circumstances for the applicant and/or the
respondent and the applicant feels there is no longer a need for the EPO, an application to revoke (cancel) the
EPO, on notice to the other party, may be submitted to the designated Justice of the Peace who granted the
original EPO.
Challenging an Emergency Protection Order: A respondent against whom an EPO is granted may within 21 days
after being given notice of the order, apply to have the EPO revoked. A respondent has the right to obtain the
affidavit (FORM 5) that was submitted to the designated JP prior to the ex-parte hearing. Once the respondent
obtains the affidavit, he/she can then submit to the Civil Registry of the Nunavut Court of Justice (NCJ), an
application to challenge the EPO. A Community Justice Outreach Worker (CJOW) can be available to assist
respondents with this process. Once the application is received at the NCJ, a clerk shall give notice to the
respondent and applicant of the place, time and date of the hearing. Applications to challenge an EPO are heard
before a Judge of the Nunavut Court of Justice. At the challenge hearing, the onus is on the respondent to
demonstrate that the EPO is not necessary for the immediate protection of a person.
FAIA Program Personnel
The Community Justice Division's FAIA program is organized into 5 regions. Each region has a Justice Specialist
that oversees the program and the work of the 25 Community Justice Outreach Workers (CJOWs), one in each
 The Kitikmeot Regional Justice Specialist is based in Cambridge Bay.
 The Kivalliq Regional Justice Specialist is based in Rankin Inlet.
 The North Baffin Regional Justice Specialist is based in Pond Inlet.
 The South Baffin Regional Justice Specialist is based in Cape Dorset.
 The Headquarters Justice Specialist is based in Iqaluit.
Community Justice Specialists Role in FAIA
The Community Justice Specialists are responsible for administering the Community Justice Division's community-
based justice programming and the FAIA program within their respective regions. Community Justice Specialists
supervise, monitor and support the Government's delivery of the FAIA program delivery in each region.
Community Justice Specialists organize and facilitate training events and workshops for Community Justice
Outreach Workers to ensure CJOWs are able to assist with FAIA. Community Justice Specialists also train RCMP
members to be able to assist community members with EPOs should a CJOW be unavailable.
Justice Specialists are the link in the network between the CJOWs, the RCMP, Justice of the Peace program, Civil
Court program and various community resources. Community Justice Specialists provide presentations and
outreach to community groups and service providers regarding FAIA.
Community Justice Specialists review all EPO and CIO applications, as well as applications to vary, to revoke or to
challenge and order. They also assist the CJOWs with the application process.
The Community Justice Specialists operate a 24/7 on-call number to assist with after-hours EPO applications
across the territory.
Community Justice Outreach Workers (CJOWs) Role in FAIA
The CJOWs work closely with the Justice Specialists in carrying out the programs, activities and services related to
FAIA. CJOWs implement and/or carry out or assist with the Emergency Protection Order (EPO) and Community
Intervention Order (CIO) application process, which includes filling out appropriate forms, facilitating hearings
with a Designated FAIA Justice of the Peace and assisting with applications to vary, revoke or challenge orders.
The CJOW also answers questions regarding orders, and connect respondents with referrals for counselling
services, especially those recommended by the Justice of the Peace in the order. They provide safety planning,
after-care and other referrals to health centres, Family Services, and the Victim Services Division as needed.
2017/2018 FAIA Training
In 2016/2017, the Division developed a joint training between Justice Specialists, Community Justice Outreach
Workers and JPs who preside over FAIA hearings. The joint training allows all parties an opportunity to address
any areas of concern with interpreting and administering the Act.
In November 2017, Community Justice Specialists and the Director of Community Justice met with Head FAIA JP,
Nicole Sikma, to address concerns; increase clarity and mutual understanding of Act and the application process;
and to continue to build collaboration between the two organizations.
Territorial CJOW Conference "Engaging Offenders and Victims through Social
Reintegration Initiatives" – February 2018
 Presentation from Head FAIA JP Nicole Sikma.
 FAIA presentation and outreach materials.
 Public speaking skills presentation.
 FAIA hands on training:
• Reviewing provisions of the Act;
• Creating safety plans;
• Writing an Affidavit ; and
• Providing after care to victims and family members.
 Nunavut Criminal Justice Process:
• Court processes
• Victim Impact Statements
• Legal terminology
• Courtroom etiquette
• Legal and community resources for offenders and victims;
• Inuktitut Legal Glossary
• Visit to Nunavut Court of Justice in Iqaluit
In addition, Community Justice Specialists did community visits throughout the year providing EPO training to
RCMP members, providing enhanced support and training to CJOWs and doing outreach and community
presentations to promote awareness of the Family Abuse Intervention Act.
2017/2018 Statistical Information on EPOs and CIOs
EPOs are the most utilized tool order under FAIA (see Appendix). However; the original intention for the Act, was
that CIOs would be the most utilized tool. Recognizing that this has not been the case, Community Justice
Specialists and CJOWs continue to promote and encourage the use of CIOs.
There are several factors contributing to the low numbers of CIO applications (see Appendix). As a voluntary
process, both applicant and respondent must be willing to attend counselling in order to improve their
relationship in order to improve the likelihood of decreasing family abuse.
Often CJOWs do not receive referrals for families experiencing family abuse until it has become a crisis situation
and emergency intervention is required. Since CIOs require the voluntary participation of both the applicant and
respondent, the respondent often declines to participate. If both applicant and respondent decide to participate
and are actively engaged in setting up counselling services, after a counselling-plan is in place, the participants
often decline to attend a hearing because there is already a mutually agreed upon plan for counselling. As a result,
the CIO is not issued.
In order to increase the use of CIOs, the Community Justice Division has continued to collaborate with and provide
training to RCMP, Family Services and health centre staff in order to identify families who may benefit from a CIO.
CJOWs continue to increase awareness of community service providers about CIOs in order to enhance their
ability to identify at-risk families. Furthermore, CJOWs also speak with EPO applicants when the EPO is nearing an
end to give the option of transitioning into a CIO, in order to better support families that wish to maintain their
relationships going forward. Community Justice Specialists deliver presentations and information sessions when
doing community visits to ensure that all relevant service providers are aware of EPOs/CIOs so that they can make
the proper referrals.
Outstanding Needs to Help Implement the Act
The Family Abuse Intervention Act is an important part of Community Justice's role in promoting awareness about
the harms of family abuse, the methods of prevention and the availability of assistance for those who are
experiencing abuse. Community Justice will continue to strive to ensure that Nunavummiut are aware of where
to go when in need of an Emergency Protection Order or Community Intervention Order.
The FAIA working group is dormant due to the migration of staff, partners and stakeholders who were involved
with the FAIA working group. Community Justice aims to reestablish the working group to continue tackling areas
of concern with the delivery of the FAIA program.
The Community Justice Division has had a high level of staff turn-over and has experienced vacancies in
Community Justice Specialist positions and the FAIA Manager position.
Due to the change in technology for the recorded phone line that facilitates the FAIA hearings, there were some
delays. In response, FAIA designated Justices of the Peace, Community Justice Specialists, and Community Justice
Outreach Workers worked together to create safety plans for FAIA applicants whose applications were delayed
due to technological challenges.
The Community Justice Division will continue to focus on educating CJOWs, Community Justice Committee
Members and other stakeholders about FAIA. Moving forward, the Community Justice Division will strive to
increase training, education/public awareness, crime prevention and victim services for all of Nunavummiut as
part of its mandate and efforts under FAIA.

HARLING ANCESTRY & HERALDRY
MORE HERALDRY
CHART -1520/2007
HARLING INTRODUCTION
The editor of this site has produced these pages in the hope that anyone who bears the name Harling will find something here to interest them. Researching my own family origins led me to an area where the name Harling in the North-West of England was first recorded in 1379. Unfortunately, records available to the family historian in this area at present start in 1520, so it is impossible to produce a connected pedigree to the earlier date. It should be noted that these pages refer principally to HARLING families whose origins are found in North-West England, but are today found to be living worldwide ........................ Peter Harling
FAMILY ORIGINS ..... THAT LEAD TO
THE NORTH OF ENGLAND
THE NAME HARLING is thought to have its origins as far back as a Saxon Thane named 'Herela.' It is from Herela that the present day Harlings take their name, that is not so much descended from him, but from the place where he lived and owned land. That place is East Harling, a small market town located in the county of Norfolk, England. So it is generally accepted that anyone bearing the name Harling has an ancestor who originated from that small market town.
At the time of the Norman Conquest (1066), we find Balduinus filius Herlunini recorded; also the Domesday Survey of 1086 lists Herluins liable for tax. But it wasn't until the the early 14th century that the name is recorded and spelt in a form that is readily recognised today. William Harlyn is found listed in the Subsidy Rolls for Norfolk/Suffolk counties paying tax in 1327, and by all accounts he appears to be the Lord of the Manor of East Harling. We could assume that this William was in some way a direct descendent of Herela and that the Saxon lands and manor were now in his ownership, which is more than likely the case. Subsequent descendents of William became knights and probably the most famous of them was Sir Robert Herlyng who fought alongside King Henry V at Agincourt in 1415. Sir Robert's shield of arms is seen here. Argent, a Unicorn Salient Sable, armed and unguled Or. (on a white shield a black unicorn with gold horn and hoofs standing on its hind legs).
Richard II 1379
So, where do we fit into the above? Well it all starts with a Richard II Poll Tax of 1379, when one Agnes Herlyng of Burton in Lonsdale (a village located some 15 miles east of Lancaster), was fined 1d. This is recorded in the earliest known tax assessment for "Craven," an area of West Yorkshire known by the Wapentakes of Staincliff & Ewcross, bordering Lancashire to the South and Westmorland to the West/North.
Who was Agnes? and why should someone with an East Anglian name ... Herlyng ... be living in this part of the country? One possible explanation is that Lord Mowbray had been granted vast tracts of land in this area, indeed he had built a motte and bailey castle at Burton in Lonsdale at the end of the 13th century. Recent research has discovered that to populate what was then a desolate almost uninhabited area Lord Mowbray subsidised and encouraged peasants from his more densely populated East Anglian and southern manors to travel north and enjoy a more prosperous living! There are other theories, but this one seems quite probable.


There is a new interesting tool released by Eliovp for modifying the video memory timings of AMD GPUs on the fly, so no need to modify and reflash the GPU BIOS anymore to do so. The not so good news for some users is that the tool is currently available for Linux only, but still you can test under Linux and make permanent changes via BIOS if needed after that for mining under Windows. The AMD Memory Tweak tool supports GDDR5 an HBM/HBM2 memory AMD GPUs and should be able to help increase hashrate in memory intensive algorithms such as Ethash for example. The AMD Memory Tweak tool is similar to the ETHlargementPill for Nvidia GDDR5X-based GPUs as an idea and functionality. The software is available as open source and is completely free to use, however you are welcome to send the author a tip if you find it useful.
If you are looking to mine PascalCoin (PASC) on your crypto mining hardware you need to check out the RHminer for the RandomHash algorithm. The miner is open source with official binaries available fo Linux and Windows for different CPUs as well as for more-recent Nvidia GPUs. The current implementation of rhminer for the RandomHash algorithm does manage to provide faster performance on a more recent CPU than on Nvidia GPUs, the faster the CPU and the more the cores you have – the higher performance you will get. Still there is work being done to further optimize Nvidia GPU performance (currently supported are Kepler, Maxwell, Pascal and Volta architectures with their own binaries). By default the official binaries are with 1% developer fee built-in, though you can compile from source with no dev fee if you want to have that removed.
There is another interesting alternative to maximize the performance of your GPU mining rigs if you use the Nanominer for GPU mining and at the same time for RandomHash CPU mining as the miner supports this kind of dual mining mode. Of course this solution will be better if you have a more powerful CPU and not a slow Celeron processor as this may actually hinder GPU performance in some cases if you try to dual mine… still it won't hurt to give it a try.
