U.S. Senate Says Stalin 'Committed Genocide' In Famine-Hit Ukraine
RFE/RL ^ | Oct 2018 | Mark Najarian

WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Senate has adopted a resolution recognizing that Soviet dictator Josef Stalin committed genocide against the Ukrainian people in the early 1930s, when millions died in a horrific famine known as the Holodomor.
The office of Republican Senator Rob Portman, who sponsored the bill, did not immediately get back to RFE/RL for comment. Asked for comment, the State Department referred to a 2017 statement that described the Holodomor as "one of the most atrocious acts of the 20th century.
The "simple resolution" passed on October 3 commemorates the 85th anniversary of the famine of 1932-33.
The Senate "recognizes the findings of the Commission on the Ukraine Famine as submitted to Congress on April 22, 1988, including that...'Stalin and those around him committed genocide against the Ukrainians in 1932–1933,'" it said.
Millions of people died in the famine, which many Ukrainians consider to have been caused by Soviet central planners as an act of genocide, aimed at wiping out Ukrainian farmers.
The Ukrainian Embassy in Washington described the resolution as the "first-ever legal act" of Congress recognizing the tragedy as a genocide, a highly charged term that is likely to anger Moscow.
Russian historians, and others, have stopped short of saying the famine was engineered to kill Ukrainians, noting that many other ethnic groups also suffered.

"U.S. lawmakers have introduced similar resolutions in the past on politically charged historical events, like the massacre of Armenians in Turkey during World War I. Most historians and a growing number of countries consider the killings to constitute genocide.
The White House, under pressure from Turkey, has stopped short of using the word "genocide" to describe the Ottoman-era massacre."

I am amazed that Democrats would turn on their hero and role model like this. Are they trying a feeble attempt to redeem themselves after using Stalinist tactics against Kavanaugh?

Though much more light needs shedding on the Soviet Unions criminal regime, revealing Stalins manmade famine it is a good start. Shedding light on the Soviet Union needs doing because its political and scientistic religion and utopian aspirations are the religiously held system of Americas Progressive Left.

Wow, I just checked and it was passed unanimously. Not one Democrat voted against it. They are running scared and are hoping this will wash off a bit of the Stalinist stink before the election.
S.Res.435 - A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that the 85th anniversary of the Ukrainian Famine of 1932-1933, known as the Holodomor, should serve as a reminder of repressive Soviet policies against the people of Ukraine.
Meanwhile, the communists in Hollywood were pledging allegiance, and donating money to Stalin and his cause. They partied in their mansions and sipped champagne while millions died. If Stalinists did take control of the U.S., it would have been nice to see the expressions on the faces of the Hollywood phonies as they faced a firing squad made up of their comrades.

I'm in the middle of reading "Harvest of Sorrow" by Robert Conquest. This book is thought to be one of the best, most definitive historical accounts of the Holodomor.
It's a tough, serious read. But important.
Despicable, heinous people.

——Not one Democrat voted against it.-——
That's not surprising at all...soviet style socialism was an object failure...
Democratic socialism is the new and improved version which will work....with people like Sanders and Cortez running it....
How could it fail with brilliant people like those two as party leaders....?

Of course, Comrade Commissar Khrushchev had no responsibility - pure as the wind driven snow, so to speak.

The reason Crimea became a part of the Ukraine, was that Khrushchev needed the support of the Ukrainians in his power bid after Stalin's death. So he threw them a bone by offering the Ukrainian SSR the Crimea.

You are spot on concerning the worship of the USSR by the American Left. The useful idiots in the USA used to say that the genocide was "Land Reform." Seriously, there were commies in the USA who worshiped the genocide.

So he threw them a bone by offering the Ukrainian SSR the Crimea.
The bone he threw came from the pile of bones made by the 3 million people he deliberately starved to death.

Of course, the mass murder wasn't just confined to the Ukraine, but to the Khazaks and the Cossacks at the Kuban River, also. They too died in great numbers.


As co-founder and CEO of Finery, a digital wardrobe platform that helps chicsters stay organized and well-styled, Whitney Casey is among the busiest entrepreneurs in New York City. On the weekends, she enjoys a well-deserved respite at her stylish Southampton abode.
Ten years, and we bought this home five years ago. I'm definitely a New Yorker to the core—I never like to be too far away from a deli or a coffee shop—so I really wanted a place that was near Main Street in the Village of Southampton. In the morning, I can easily walk and get coffee and a bagel, then head straight to the beach.
What was the concept for the home?
Jessica Ayromloo designed the house for maximum personality, and Louis Follo helped us build it for maximum entertaining. Each room has a name and a theme. Our home is a classic Hamptons gambrel-barn style—except on steroids, as it goes over the tree line. Sorry, neighbors.
One of the reasons I love being walking distance from Main Street is that guests can take full advantage of the town and entertain themselves. They always end up coming home with bags full of workout clothes from Bandier, and then I'll make them SoulCycle at the Barn with me!
On a work note, you started your career in media. What drew you to that field?
I began as an anchor/correspondent for CNN, ABC News, and CBS in New York. Honestly, journalism is really just getting paid to be intellectually curious and solve problems based on your curiosity. As a journalist, you bear witness to extreme events and then explain them to people who have never seen them. You therefore have to have the capacity to take big ideas and distill them down to manageable thoughts that become actionable for the masses. I then worked directly with President Bill Clinton as a media specialist for the Clinton Global Initiative. I finally ended up pivoting into the tech world after working for Match.com for five years as the company's spokesperson.
What was it like to work with Bill Clinton?
He is a real visionary. He truly loves what he does and has an obsession—not a passion—for helping make this world a better place to live. I admire that he never takes himself too seriously!
What were some of your wildest experiences at Match.com?
One story really sticks out to me: This couple met on Match—but had lived for years, single, on the same street a few blocks away from each other! I love this story because it shows you the power of technology and how it really does bring us together, even when we think we already are. I got to work for an awesome female CEO, Mandy Ginsberg, who now runs all of the Match group. She is a remarkable leader and a wonderful role model for me.
Where do you keep your Emmys?
Where every Emmy winner would: a storage closet behind a mannequin head that I used to show women on my talk show how to apply dry shampoo when it first came out.
Tell us about Finery, your latest launch. What was the initial concept?
Brooklyn [Decker] and I have been friends for years and came up with the idea when we read that women spend two years of their lives deciding what to wear and eight years shopping! We have Spotify to manage our music, TripIt to manage our travel, and Mint to manage our finances. Why wasn't there an app to manage our wardrobes? That's how Finery was created.
How has it evolved over the course of the project?
We recently launched Finery's second version in June, and the new features available to our users are all a direct result of their early feedback! Now when you log in to the app, you can tap any one of your items and see styled inspo based on that piece. It's so helpful when you wake up and have that "I have nothing to wear" feeling. Ideally, you'd wake up, open Finery—click on your favorite black blazer, for example, see styled looks, grab those items, and head on your way. We want to save you time and energy!
We heard that you have quite a bold marketing strategy.
I had my Smart car wrapped with Finery logos, and I drive it around all over the Hamptons. As a female in a very male-dominated tech industry, I have an insane stamina for long hours of work. Even driving in Hamptons traffic needed to be maximized for marketing our company.
Who were some of the early adopters using the service?
Our early adopters include Chrissy Teigen, Lauren Santo Domingo, Christine Centenera, Bobbie Thomas, Rachel Zoe, Molly Sims, Kelly Wearstler, Leandra Medine, Danielle Bernstein, and Emily Schuman.
And how does the service work?
Our users sign up with the email she shops with, and we put her shopping receipts to work to build out her online wardrobe automatically. She can then link individual shopping accounts to sync purchase history from specific stores and use our Pinterest-like browser extension to add in-store purchases that will complete her wardrobe. Our platform can then use computer vision to give her styling inspiration for the items she already owns and help her shop more strategically for items that complete her wardrobe.
Where do you hope to see it in the future?
Finery's long-term goals include refining our technology to dress our customers via artificial intelligence and create a global shared economy for your wardrobe. We want the entire life cycle of every clothing article and accessory you own to play out on our platform.

Are Steel-Cut Oats a Good Source Of Fiber? (Explained)
If you're wondering if steel-cut oats are a good source of fiber, this article will answer that question for you. However, we won't stop there, expect to learn a few more pieces of useful info on the subject.
In the first part, we will talk about steel-cut oats and their fiber content, and give you their exact fiber count and the number of calories. You will get the answer to your main question there.
Secondly, we will compare the fiber content in steel-cut oats to other similar foods. This way you will be able to find some alternative sources of fiber if necessary.
Finally, we will give you the fiber count in steel-cut oats in multiple measurements.
Alright, start reading to get all of this info!
Quick Answer: Are steel-cut oats a good source of fiber? One cup of steel-cut oats has 16.2 grams of fiber and 606.4 calories. This means that steel-cut oats have 2.7 grams of fiber per 100 calories.
That makes them an average source of fiber. Not that good, but far from bad. You shouldn't expect to get the majority of your fiber from steel-cut oats, but they can be a worthwhile addition to your fiber-rich diet.
The key to creating a good diet that is rich in fiber is to combine multiple foods that serve as good fiber sources. With the amount of fiber they provide, steel-cut oats are a decent fiber source, but shouldn't be the main one in your diet.
Expect them to play more of a supporting role. Once you get all of the fiber from your main sources, steel-cut oats can help fill in the extra fiber you need.
Your daily fiber goal should be 30 grams, according to nutritionists. With one cup of steel-cut oats, you can take care of more than half of that amount, but you would also eat 600 calories, which is a lot.
With two cups you would eat a bit over 30 grams, but the price in calories would be 1,200, which isn't ideal.
This is why we recommend that you combine multiple sources of fiber into your diet. Naturally, steel-cut oats can be one of them.
Now, let's compare steel-cut oats as a fiber source to other similar foods.
Comparing Fiber In Steel-Cut Oats To Similar Foods
How Much Fiber Steel-Cut Oats Contain By Quantity
Now that we've learned that a cup of steel-cut oats has 16.2 grams of fiber and 606.4 calories (2.7 grams of fiber per 100 calories), let's compare them to other similar foods to see which is the better source of fiber:
White rice has 1.4 grams of fiber and 195 calories per cup. (0.72 grams of fiber per 100 calories). It is much worse than steel-cut oats when it comes to fiber.
A cup of peanuts has 12.4 grams of fiber and 827.9 calories. (1.5 grams of fiber per 100 calories). Peanuts do have more fiber than white rice, but they are also not as good as steel-cut oats.
A cup of macadamia nuts has 11.5 grams of fiber and 962.1 calories. (1.2 grams of fiber per 100 calories) macadamia nuts are not that good of a fiber source, and they are only half as good as steel-cut oats!
1 cup of quinoa has 5 grams of fiber and 222 calories. (2.22g per 100 calories) Quinoa is quite similar to steel-cut oats when it comes to fiber. Still, it is a bit worse, but we wouldn't call it bad.
A cup of almonds has 16.2 grams of fiber and 750 calories. (2.16 grams of fiber per 100 calories) Almonds also have only a bit less fiber than steel-cut oats, so that's another food we could consider quite similar to them.
Cashews have 4.3 grams of fiber and 718.9 calories per cup. (0.6 grams of fiber per 100 calories) Finally, cashews are not a good source of fiber at all. They are much worse than steel-cut oats.
1 cup of steel-cut oats has 16.2 grams of fiber and 606.4 calories.
Steel-cut oats have 10.1 grams of fiber and 379 calories per 100 grams.
Steel-cut oats have 2.9 grams of fiber and 107.4 calories per oz.
Steel-cut oats are a decent source of fiber and one that can be an important part of your diet. They will definitely help you reach your fiber goals, but there are also better options out there. This is why steel-cut oats shouldn't be the main fiber source in your diet. The ratio of fiber to calories is not the best, so consider giving them a supporting role. This way your diet should have a healthy mix of many different fiber sources.

AAAA Records - find out more information about them and when will you need to use one.
AAAA is a domain address record, which is essentially the IPv6 address of the web server in which the domain is hosted. The IPv6 system was intended to replace the present IPv4 system where every single IP is comprised of 4 sets of decimal digits which range from 1 to 255 e.g. 5.168.208.143. On the other hand, an IPv6 address features eight sets of four hexadecimal numbers - from 0 to 9 and from A to F. The reason for this transformation is the substantially smaller range of unique IPs the current system supports as well as the quick increase of gadgets which are connected to the world wide web. A good example of an IPv6 address would be 2101:1f34:32e2:2415:1365:4f2b:2553:1345. If you wish to forward a domain to a server that uses this kind of an address, you will need to create an AAAA record for it, and not the widely used A record, that is an IPv4 address. Both records provide the exact same function, yet different notations are used, so as to identify the two sorts of addresses.
If you are using a service with a third-party service provider and you have to create an AAAA record to forward a domain name or a subdomain to their system, you will be able to do that with a few mouse clicks within the Hepsia CP, included with our website hosting packages. After you sign in, you have to go to the DNS Records section where you are going to find all of the records for any domain or subdomain hosted in the account. Setting up a new record is as basic as clicking on a button, selecting the type from a drop-down menu, which will be AAAA in this case, and then inserting the value, or the actual IPv6 address, inside a text box. As an additional option you are able to modify the TTL value (Time To Live), that outlines how long the record is live after you change it or erase it in the future. The new AAAA record is going to be live in just an hour and will propagate worldwide a few hours later, so the hostname for which you have created it will start redirecting to the new web server.
When you've got a semi-dedicated server account from our company and you need to create an AAAA record for a domain name you have hosted in it or a subdomain you have set up, it is going to take you just a few mouse clicks in the Hepsia Control Panel to do that. In case you have never had a web hosting account before, you'll not face any issues because you will use a very simple and easy-to-use interface. All DNS records for your domains are going to be listed in a section of the CP with the same name, so when you go there, you will notice all records that have been created automatically or manually and you'll be able to create a new one by clicking on the corresponding button. A small pop-up will appear, so with several clicks you can pick the type of record you need and for which Internet domain or subdomain it'll be set up. Then, simply paste the IPv6 address in a text box, save the change and 1 hour later the new AAAA record will be fully live. As an optional setting, you may choose the time this record shall be functioning after you modify it or remove it in the future. This is the so-called TTL, or Time To Live value of the record, which you can modify from the standard 3600 seconds when the other service provider needs it.

The mountains, hills, lakes, streams, waterfalls and seashores of Japan have inspired its traditional gardens. Scale and proportion are very important Most Japanese gardens are created on comparatively small areas, and every effort is made to establish the illusion of space and distance. To help this, false perspectives may be realized by planting gradually smaller trees as the distance from the house or other viewing point increases. Larger rock groups may occupy the foreground; smaller ones are farther from the viewer. The nearer island in a lake may be larger than one slightly more distant and its vegetation taller. Paths and bridges are scaled to minimum usable dimensions, and such features as lanterns and pagodas are never out of proportion to their surroundings.
Similarly, the garden is made to appear vaster by the clever use of trees and shrubs that give an appearance of maturity and age, even though they are of moderate size. Such trees and shrubs are those that grow naturally this way or can be induced to do so by pruning. By locating brighter-coloured plants towards the foreground and those of less insistence farther away, the feeling of distance is enhanced. This is true, too, when large bold-leaved plants are restricted to near-to-the-viewer locations and the background planting is of finer-textured foliage. Spaciousness is further suggested by employing to best advantage horizontal lines such as those of lake shores, low roofs and surfaces of still water and of stretches of carefully tended sand or gravel.

Only twenty years remain to save the cheetah: Conservationist Dr. Laurie Marker details her race against time at Explorers Club event
by CCF Staff May 7, 2014
*****MEDIA ALERT*****
CONTACT: Susan Yannetti, Cheetah Conservation Fund, 202.716.7756, susanyannetti@mac.com
WHO: Laurie Marker, Ph.D. Founder and Executive Director of the Cheetah Conservation Fund
Dr. Laurie Marker is an American scientist and resident of Namibia widely recognized as the world's leading expert on the cheetah. Dr. Marker founded the Cheetah Conservation Fund near Otjiwarongo, Namibia more than 20 years ago and has built the organization into an unparalleled model for endangered species conservation. She is the recipient of the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement, the Tech Museum's Intel Environment Prize, and a two-time finalist for the Indianapolis Prize. Dr. Marker was named a Hero for the Planet by TIME Magazine and has also been featured in Smithsonian and National Geographic. She has been a guest on numerous American television shows, including The Tonight Show, Good Morning America, Today, and Late Night with David Letterman.
WHAT: Dr. Marker will talk about the cheetah's impending fight for survival and her organization's mission to save it from extinction. Dr. Marker will discuss unique Cheetah Conservation Fund initiatives, including its Livestock Guarding Dog Program, which reduces human-animal conflict by providing local farmers with Anatolian Shepherd and Kangol dogs as an alternative to guns for protecting livestock from cheetahs; the award-winning Bushblok Project for habitat restoration; and efforts to educate people on conservation and sustainability issues both in Namibia and abroad.
Dr. Marker will also autograph copies of her recently published book, A Future for Cheetahs.
Media are encouraged to attend. Dr. Marker is available for one-on-one interviews and photos at the event. Interviews may also be scheduled for alternate times and dates upon request.
46 E. 70th Street
Cocktail reception at 6 p.m.,
with Dr. Marker's talk beginning at 7 p.m.
WHY: Cheetahs are the most endangered of African big cat species. Their numbers are decreasing at a rate that if nothing is done, the cheetah will become extinct in 20 years. An apex predator and keystone species, the eradication of the cheetah would have a devastating impact on its eco-system and create new problems for the people who share it. By acting now, we can help the cheetah avoid this fate and preserve the natural habitats of our planet.
HOW: The event is open to the public. Tickets are $20 for non-members, $5 for students with a valid ID, and free to Explorers Club members. Tickets can be reserved by contacting the Explorers Club at reservations@explorers.org or by calling 212.628.8383.

A lot of cable manufacturers will try to confuse consumers with fancy, complicated terms to describe cable but don't be fooled. OSD outdoor speaker cable is priced significantly lower than other brands and performs just as well if not better. This 4-conductor oxygen-free cable can be used for outdoor rock, patio, or garden speakers, or for low voltage outdoor lighting. The cable features a specially formulated white polyethylene jacket that is U/V resistant and provides protection against water damage. The audiophile grade wire contains 99.9% pure copper conductors with a high strand count for excellent performance.
A reasonably priced alternative to Monster® Cable. This wire is perfect for outdoor speakers, low voltage lighting and many other outdoor or direct burial applications. The cable features a specially formulated white polyethylene jacket that is U/V resistant and provides protection against water damage. The audiophile grade wire contains 25 strands of 99.9% pure copper conductors. The high strand count provides improved skin effect.
Will this cable work on intercom speaker from the house to my gate about 800ft ?
My intention is to run 16 Gauge 4-conductor CL2/3 cable from my receiver (in my garage) down to my basement and near an exterior wall. As some point I will split that run into two 16 Gauge 2-conductor CL2/3 cables (this will occur indoors). I will then run the two 2 conductor cables through existing wall penetrations and will connect them to my RS690s ohn the patio. 1. Do you see an issue with this? 2. Can I run the 4-conductor cable alongside some electrical cable? Or should there be a distance b/t the two.
Do you have a shielded version of this cable?
I'm looking for outdoor speaker cable that I can run out to my fire pit in the back yard. This looks great, but it's only available in white. Once I get to the buried cable to the location, I need to run it up a few trees to my speakers, but I don't want the white cable to show so obviously! Isn't this available in black?
Hi Eric, Unfortunately we only carry speaker wire in white!
There is 4 wires inside the uv sleeve. Does this mean I can connect 2 speakers with one length of wire?
Would I be able to get any other length of cable, for example, 150 feet?
What is the diameter of this cable 16/4?
Are the individual wires twisted and if so what is the twist rate per foot?
Can this be used in wall?

Taking to the Streets: Crowds, Politics and Identity in Mid-Nineteenth-Century Montreal
Horner, Dan (Author)
An examination of public life in Montreal in the 1840s. The author looks at a diverse set of crowd events, including riots, parades, religious processions, and public celebrations, as a means of exploring how the men and women of Montreal engaged in politics and aspects of public life during this decade. The author argues that engaging in crowd events provided Montrealers from across the class and ethnic divide an opportunity to negotiate their place in a city undergoing significant cultural and demographic change. For ambitious elites, organizing events like religious processions and national society parades was a means of asserting a claim on cultural power, while for others these moments provided a space for leisure, resistance and transgression.

Lynn Shelton wrote and directed two superior indie comedies, Humpday (2009) and Your Sister's Sister (2011), but her career in features failed to ignite and she crept off into series television. Now she's back with an engrossing drama about love and circumstance, and there isn't a false note from start to finish. Jay Duplass, who cowrote the screenplay with Shelton, stars as a 40-year-old man who's spent half his life in prison, taking a murder rap for his younger brother; paroled through the efforts of a criminal justice advocacy group, he returns home, tries to negotiate life as a convicted felon, and pursues an all-consuming love for the volunteer activist who stuck with him through the appeals process, played by Edie Falco at her most vulnerable. The woman is at least a decade older, with a teenage daughter and a troubled marriage, but she and the protagonist have shared something extraordinary—the only question is whether, in the long run, that will be enough.

We've all heard that one before, right? And there's a reason why it's such a known an popular saying… because it's true!
It's human nature to judge people by the first encounter we have with them. It may not be fair, but it is what it is. The good thing is, that in most cases, if for some reason we did not show our best first impression, we usually have a chance to make it up. If you meet the in-laws for the first time, and things did not go well, you will have other chances to interact with them and do it right. Same thing when you moved in to a new neighborhood, maybe with all the moving hassles you did not give the best first impression to the neighbors, but you have the opportunity to do so later on.
Unfortunately, there is one situation where the saying "first impressions are always the most important" is so true, that it can even turn into "first impressions are always the last impressions", because you won't have a chance to do it again or to try to make it up. Do you know what it is? Yes, job interviews.
If a job interview goes bad, in other words, if you don't give your best first impression, most likely, you won't have a chance to try again. It's just game over.
That's why it is so important to be more than ready and prepared when you are going to have a job interview. And one of the ways to prepare, other than having your resume ready and updated, is to show off your best possible smile.
Human Resources experts agree: if you're not smiling at all during your job interview, you may as well stay home. So if you really want that job, do something to make your smile look extra nice, like scheduling a visit with your Tijuana Dentist to have a teeth whitening procedure done.
A bright smile and a good resume are the secret to landing that new job, so call us today!

What's the best place to live in Ecuador? There is a clear and simple answer.
It is certainly a hot button question, though. Name any place at all, and someone will jump in to explain categorically to you why you are wrong. I suppose it is only human nature, but whenever you ask that question of expats in Ecuador, they invariably will inform you that by a wild coincidence, it just so happens they have settled in the ideal spot. Rita and I have traveled over a fair amount of this country, and we still have many places to explore. We have seen a lot of wonderful places, and everywhere we talked to expats, you guessed it – wherever we were visiting happened to be the best place to live in Ecuador.
What is interesting to me, is that in some cases this feeling gets rather militant. You will find people who seem almost offended if you do not agree that they are in the ideal location for an expat. I don't know if the motivation is pride in their new home, or fear that maybe they made the wrong choice. Maybe it is a case of everyone has to agree with me, or else I have to reconsider my decision.
This seems particularly true in Cuenca. I don't mean to pick on Cuenca, it just seems that this foible is more advanced there – maybe just because the expat population is higher. But I've noticed in conversations, online forum chats, and social media, that if you bring up any point that sounds like it might be slightly negative or critical of Cuenca, be prepared for an onslaught of epic proportions from the newly-minted Cuencanos. You will be informed swiftly and often that Cuenca is the BEST! Reactions are particularly swift if you use one of the two four-letter words that are forbidden when discussing Cuenca – "rain" and "cold". It is NOT rainy or cold, it is SPRING-LIKE, dammit!
What is really unusual to me as an observer of human behavior, is that some are not content merely with promoting their choice of Ecuadorian real estate as the best. They must also denigrate everywhere else. How often have you heard someone in the Andes dismiss the entire coast as "hot", "buggy", or my personal favorite "chilly in the off season"? There are newsletters and blogs from Cuenca that routinely run articles about what a bad investment property anywhere else is, how bad crime is everywhere except for guess-where, and so on. I expect any time now to see an article linking proximity to sea water with erectile dysfunction.
Don't get me wrong, I like Cuenca. I can see why people would want to live there. But is it the best place in Ecuador?
Rita and I try not to show this sort of geo-political chauvinism. We are very happy in Salinas. But is it the best place in Ecuador?
Wherever we have travelled in Ecuador, we have seen places that we really liked. We try to see the pluses and the minuses in all of them. So far, for us, Salinas is far and away the one where we have the most pluses and the fewest minuses. But is it the best?
There is a Buddhist koan that tells the story (like many of the koans) of a young monk suddenly achieving satori, or that sudden inexpressible flash of understanding where you become one with and understand fully all of the universe. You know, like when you eat chocolate.
"Give me the best piece of meat you have," said the customer.
That, I believe sums up things nicely. There is no "best place in Ecuador", because they all are the best – for someone.
The trick of course, is finding the place that is best for you. And I cannot tell you where that place is. Neither can anyone else. You will have to discover what is best for you – and you may discover your "best place" is not in Ecuador.
What I can do is to give you something that is sorely lacking when it comes to describing places to live in Ecuador. I can try to give you as close to an honest, dispassionate appraisal of the good, the bad, and the ugly of the various villages, towns and cities we have explored. I'm sure to step on some toes in doing so, in fact, I'm not doing it right if I don't. If you are thinking of moving to Ecuador, or living somewhere that is not quite what you expected, maybe I can give you a few leads to check into.
I still maintain the best thing you can do is to go and see for yourself! Don't take my word for it, or anyone else's. Moving overseas is too important a decision not to have your boots on the ground.
So look for a new series in this blog, each with a title that starts "Exploring Ecuador" followed by the city/location name. We'll start by working our way up the coast from Machala to Canoa, then jump over to the Andes. Over time, as we get to the northern coast and other new areas, I'll continue to add to the series.
Let's see if we can find your best place in Ecuador. First up will be Machala, Banana Capital of Ecuador!
You make good points to be sure. I often see posts where people want to know the best place in Ecuador to move. They don't even state what they are looking for in terms of climate, mountains verses ocean, small town or city…It depends on what you are looking for. I will look forward to reading your future articles.
I enjoyed your article and will be following your blog from now on. I think Cuenca is a great place but I also like the west coast (I have a beach apartment in Tonsupa) and 'El Valle' near Quito. If I do retire to Ecuador it will probably be to the coast.
Thanks – we look forward to exploring Tonsupa and Atacames in May or June of 2017. We love Quito, but I'm not familiar with El Valle – is that near Avenida El Inca?
I also look forward to future articles.
Looking forward to the articles Jim. We have chosen the coast, and Salinas in particular, but would love to visit other coastal towns as well. Sure the mountains are nice, but we are beach folks, so a lot of choices are of no interest to us, but they are still great places to live. Viva Salinas!! Viva Ecuador!!
There are a lot of beautiful places to chose from, both on the coast and in the interior. The trick is finding the one that is best for you. Of course, it is also nice that the country is just the right size – you can settle in one spot, and easily visit others.
One of the things I am looking forward to is finding our "best place" in Ecuador. We have travelled over many parts and are settling in Cuenca as our starting point. But we enjoyed the Andes and the coast so the adventure will continue! Looking forward to seeing your take on various places!
Thanks – it is a beautiful country with a lot to offer. That's why I feel bad for people who lock themselves into one place, and don't take advantage of what the country has to offer.
The best place to live is……within your self. I want to move to Ecuador for a change of pace, the challenge of refining and mastering the beauty of Spanish……to see new sights, find a way to give back some of what I have been given in this life. I am very interested in your explorations, appreciate your level headed information, and add this to my store of information. I live in Seattle WA……Cuenca weather, "spring-like" or cold and rainy ? Maybe a great place to get used to things–comfortable with a similar climate. But I don't want to stop there….I want to explore, learn, I want to see Loja, to see the cloud forest. I am interested in seeing the coast, I might just surprise myself……maybe in my old age I will learn something new about myself and stay awhile. I am drawn to the idea of Vilcabamba. I have no idea where I will end up, I am not to worried about it either To explore, enjoy and smile a lot at being in a new place, surrounded by new cultural parameters and see just what happens within myself….."home " is within ME…..why not explore ?
With that attitude, you should really enjoy exploring Ecuador.
Thank you! If I have a goal, that would be it. Enjoy Ecuador. I didn't mean to get so wordy!

I have added the HarappaWorld Admixture results for HRP0289-HRP0297 to the individual spreadsheet.
The only differences greater than 1% are South Indian (2.68%), Southeast Asian (1.69%), Southwest Asian (1.41%), Baloch (1.23%), and Beringian (1.22%). It's remarkable that only 14,000 SNPs could provide us a decent result.
We have two new Gujarati participants. HRP0292, a Gujarati Jain, seems to be more similar to somewhat southern populations. HRP0294, a Gujarati Sunni Vohra, has results somewhat similar to HRP0265 (Gujarati Patel Muslim) and more north-oriented. Therefore, I have separated a new ethnic category of Gujarati Muslims in my ethnic spreadsheet. I'll have averages when I compute them next time.
We have two Indian adoptee participants as well. HRP0297 has results which match well with the Bengalis (other than the Brahmins) in this project. HRP0290's results are somewhat harder to figure out. The closest groups, not too close, are probably Tharu from Uttarakhand and Satnami from Chhattisgarh (Reich et al dataset). A ChromoPainter analysis would be more useful here.


The Menorah Primary School was founded to provide a sound religious and secular education for the children of the Golders Green Beth Hamedrash Congregation although since its inception there have been places available at the school for Jewish children whose parents, whilst belonging to other synagogues, have a religious philosophy and observe a standard of orthodox Jewish religious practice in accordance with that set by the Rabbi of the GGBH. The school is provided primarily for children of Orthodox Jewish families who maintain strict observance of Orthodox Jewish religious and cultural norms and other children are admitted only if there are still places available after all such applicant children have been offered places.
The school accepts 50 children into the reception class each year.
Please find the application forms below.
Please note the Rabbi's certificate and a proof of the child's Date of Birth are required with each application form.

NWCBA Official Rules - Major League (11-12 yr. old)
Revised January 3, 2006
1. Major League Baseball Rules (Sporting News edition) will be followed except where explicitly modified by these local (NWCBA) rules.
2. It is a FELONY for anyone to strike an umpire in the state of North Carolina!
3. The use or consumption of any forms of alcoholic beverages or tobacco products by any player, coach or parent/fan on the field, in the dugouts or in the stands is strictly prohibited.
4. Players must be at least eleven (11) years of age and not have reached thirteen (13) years of age as of April 30th of the year in which the spring season is played. Each player must present to the League Secretary a copy of his/her birth certificate before the start of league play.
5. There will be periodic maintenance details to repair or maintain the playing fields. Any team that fails to support these efforts will forfeit the use of the fields for practices. The length of the penalty is at the discretion of the League Commissioner.
6. Each team will consist of no less than twelve (12) and no more than fifteen (15) players. Each team will have a head coach and must have adult supervision at every game. No game will be allowed to start without adult supervision.
7. The home team, after talking with the umpire, decides whether to start a game if rain is threatening. If the game is interrupted by rain, a fifteen (15) minute delay will be allowed, except by mutual agreement of the coaches to postpone or end the game. Following the delay, the game may be resumed or terminated at the discretion of the umpire. If the game is terminated in the middle of an inning by rain and it has become a regulation game, the final score will be the score that existed at the end of the last completed full inning of play. If the game fails to become a regulation game (i.e., 4 innings or 3 ½ innings if the home team is leading), it is a "no game" and must be replayed as a new game. Warning, protect your pitcher! The innings pitched by a player will count under rule # 23, even if the game is declared a "no game".
8. The HOME team is responsible for providing the field umpire. While the league will arrange to have a plate umpire present for regularly scheduled games, the home team is responsible for notifying the umpire's booking agent in case of a rainout or cancellation and is responsible for arranging for a plate umpire for make-up games. The home team coach is responsible for signing the umpire's worksheet thereby indicating that the umpire worked the game.
9. The HOME team is responsible for preparing the field, including the mound, foul lines, coaches' and batter's boxes and turning any necessary lights and equipment prior to the start of each game. The VISITING team is responsible for turning off the scoreboard and field lights after the game, as well as locking up the equipment storage areas after the last game of the day.
10. The VISITING team is responsible for field clean up after the game. This includes cleaning out the trash from both dugouts after the game, as well as picking up any pieces of trash in the immediate vicinity of the dugout or backstop areas.
11. The HOME team takes the third base dugout.
12. The coaches will exchange lineup cards prior to the start of every game. Each pitcher must be designated and the number of innings pitched in the current week must be reported. The date of the last game must also be reported for the pitchers pitching in this game. The game is not official until the first pitch is thrown. Games in which an ineligible pitcher is used shall be declared forfeited by the offending team (see rule # 23).
13. Each coach shall provide the umpire with one (1) new baseball and one (1) good used baseball prior to the start of the game.
14. All players must be in full uniform during the course of the game. This includes a team cap, a team jersey (always tucked into pants) and baseball pants. Baseball stirrup socks are optional. Rubber cleats on shoes are suggested; metal cleats on shoes are not allowed.
15. A minimum of eight (8) players will be required to start and continue a game. Less than eight players will constitute a forfeiture of the game. Each team will have no more than fifteen (15) minutes past the game starting time to field a team. After that time, the offending team will forfeit the game by a 6-0 score.
16. A regulation game will last for seven (7) innings of play, or two (2) hours, whichever comes first (see rule #17 below). If the home team is ahead entering the bottom of the seventh inning, the game is complete. The game will also be considered complete after four (4) innings, or three and one half (3½) innings if the home team is ahead, and the time limit has expired or environmental conditions have halted the game. Extra innings in case of a tie will be allowed as long as the time limit rule is not exceeded (see rule # 17 below).
17. No inning may start after 1 hour and 50 minutes from the official starting time of the game. The official starting time shall be the originally scheduled start time or 15 minutes after the end of the preceding game, whichever is later. Any inning started must be played to completion, even if the two-hour time limit is exceeded, unless the umpire due to environmental conditions has called the game.
18. In innings 1-6, a team's turn at bat ends when five (5) runs have been scored or three (3) putouts have been made by the defense, whichever comes first, UNLESS the top of the inning has not been completed by the 1 hour 50 minute time limit. In that event the inning will be treated like innings 7+. In innings 7+, there is no limit on the number of runs scored and a team's turn at bat ends when the defense has made three (3) putouts.
19. Ten Run Rule: A game may be terminated once it becomes a regulation game if one team is ahead by 10 or more runs and each team has had equal turns at bat or the home team is leading. Termination is solely at the option of the trailing team's head coach.
20. Tie Games: In order for a game to be declared a tie game by the umpire, it must be a regulation game (at least four complete innings must have been played). Extra innings may be played as long as the time limit rule is not violated. Tie games will be played at the end of the season only if the outcome of the game has bearing on the league standings for tournament play. A tie game is replayed as a new game.
21. All players must play a minimum of three (3) innings per game in the field defensively. Exceptions may occur as a result of rain/time-shortened games or for disciplinary reasons. A player my not occupy the same defensive position on the field for more than a cumulative total of 4 innings.
22. The re-entry rule will be used for all defensive field positions except the pitcher. A non-pitching player may be entered at, removed from, or moved to, any defensive position at any time during the game.
23. Special Pitching Rules:
No pitcher may pitch more than six (6) innings per week. The week begins at 12:00 am Monday and ends Sunday at 11:59 pm.
No pitcher may pitch more than three (3) innings per game.
One (1) pitch thrown in an inning counts as one (1) inning pitched.
If a player pitches three (3) innings in a game, that player may not pitch again for 40 hours (calculated from the time of the pitcher's first pitch of that game), even if the next day begins a new week.
No intentional walks are allowed.
A pitcher may not re-enter the same game at the pitcher position.
Pitchers are allowed to throw fastballs and change-ups ONLY. No curves, knuckles, etc… This is coach policed and enforced.
24. A coach may make one trip to the mound per inning per pitcher. On the second trip to the mound in the same inning for the same pitcher, the pitcher must be removed from the game as a pitcher. At that point he/she becomes a non-pitching player and may occupy any other defensive position on the field. When a coach goes to the mound, all players must remain at their positions unless summoned to the mound by the coach. Only the three (3) players, including the current pitcher may meet at the mound per trip.
25. Any game in which an ineligible pitcher is used (throws at least one pitch) shall be declared forfeited to the non-offending team. The opposing coach must make appeal to the umpire during the game or to the League Commissioner within 48 hours of the conclusion of the game.
26. Any player warming up a pitcher at home plate or anywhere else on the field shall wear a mask, including a throat protector. Pitchers may not warm up on the field mound prior to game time.
27. All catchers must wear a protective genital cup, helmet, mask w/ throat guard, chest protector, and shin guards while playing defense behind the plate (a catcher may remove his/her helmet/mask to field a pitch that has been taken by the batter or to field a batted ball). All other players are strongly encouraged to wear a protective cup.
28. Batting:
§ The batter may advance to first base on a dropped third strike if either the base is unoccupied at the time of the pitch w/ less than two outs, or when there are two outs, regardless of runners on base.
§ Throwing or slinging the bat is prohibited and the batter is out. However, the umpire may first issue one (1) warning per team, in which case the play stands. If the batter is called out, no base runner may advance.
29. A continuous batting order will be used and all players must take their regular turn at bat during a game. The batting order will remain fixed during the game with defensive fielding assignments having no effect on the batting order. Late arrivals will enter the batting order at the bottom of the lineup card. Should a player leave the game (e.g., due to injury), all players below that player in the batting order will move up one slot and maintain their same batting order. If the player who left the game returns and is re-inserted into the game, he/she must enter into the same batting position as he/she originally occupied, with the players below him/her in the batting order moving down one slot into their original positions in the batting order. When a player does leave the game, the next player up to bat in the order starts with a fresh 0-0 count.
30. No player may change positions in the batting order during a game. Any player who bats out of turn (receives one pitch) is out and all base runners must return to the bases they occupied before the offending batter came to the plate provided a defensive coach or player calls time out and appeals the player batting out of turn prior to the next batter receiving one pitch. Without such appeal, the result of the out of turn at bat stands.
31. Protective headgear must be worn by all players while at bat, while a base runner and while standing in the on-deck circle. Any player who removes his/her helmet before reaching the dugout may, at the discretion of the home plate umpire, be called out. All batboys/batgirls must wear protective headgear at all times.
32. If the catcher of record (the player who was at the catcher's position during the last pitch thrown by his/her team while on defense) is on base with two (2) outs, the last player to have been put out may be substituted (although substitution is not mandatory) as a runner to allow the catcher to get on the catcher's equipment. If pinch-run for, that player must catch or pitch in the subsequent defensive half-inning. If the pitcher of record (the player who threw the last pitch by his/her team while on defense) is on base with two (2) outs, a pinch runner may be used (although substitution is not mandatory), in which case the last player to have been put out would be substituted as a runner. If pinch-run for, that player must catch or pitch in the subsequent defensive half-inning.
33. The "must slide feet first" rule will be in force for any play at home plate involving potential contact by a base runner with a defensive player covering the plate. Failure to slide in this situation constitutes a put out of the runner at home plate. Defensive players shall not be in the base path without the ball unless in the act of fielding a batted ball OR when fielding a thrown ball where the defensive player has an opportunity to catch the ball prior to potential contact with the runner.
Runners must slide at 2nd and 3rd base if there is a play to avoid contact with the defensive player.
The home plate umpire may eject any defensive player who stands in the base path without the ball.
34. Unnecessary roughness by a player as judged by the home plate umpire will result in automatic ejection from the game.
35. A ball caught in the screen behind home plate is a dead ball and the runners are entitled to the base to which they are advancing. Any ball that goes through the fence in an area where the fence is in need of repair is a dead ball and the runners may advance one (1) base.
36. Out of bounds areas shall be discussed and agreed upon by the opposing coaches and the home plate umpire prior to the game.
37. To be valid, any protest must be announced to the umpire and opposing coach immediately at the time of the dispute. Written notice and detailed explanation of the protest must be turned in to the League Commissioner within 24 hours. No protest shall ever be permitted on judgement calls by the umpire.
38. All chatter is to be directed towards each team's own players and not to any opposing player or coach. Each team may receive one warning; subsequent violations will result in the ejection of all offending players, coaches and/or parents/fans.
39. Scorebooks must be accurate and complete. The home team is responsible for keeping the official scorebook and for securing the home plate umpire's signature on the scorebook. Coaches are to check the scorebook after each game.
40. A player may be withheld from a game for team discipline reasons with the approval of the League Commissioner. Parents must be notified in advance of the game.
41. The League Commissioner, with approval from the NWCBA Policy Committee may impose a suspension on any head coach, assistant coach, player or parent/fan for unsportsmanlike conduct.
Additionally, any player or coach ejected from a game will be subject to the following penalties:
Coach- First offense: Disqualified from that game and his/her team's next game.
Second offense: Disqualified for the remainder of the season.
Player- First offense: DQ from that game and his/her team's next game.
Subsequent offenses: DQ from that game and his/her team's next three
(3) games.
42. If a player moves from the area or is injured, he/she may be replaced. The Commissioner's decision to choose replacement players is final. An injured player, upon recovery, may rejoin the team provided that the total number of players does not exceed the player limit (see rule #6).

Knowledge. Doesn't matter.(current)
Knowledge. Doesn't matter.
Marco Schoppmann, managing director at csi development technology, gives the lecture 'Holistic product development' at the University of Munich on behalf of prof. Dr Elias in the Mechanical Engineering department. We discussed with him why it's "the coolest lecture of the entire study period". And also why knowledge, in his opinion, is only half the story for starting a successful career.
One of your students wrote in their feedback that he 'took things away [from your lecture] which he did not realise would help him in the future' and that he 'had learned something for life'. You can't really ask for much more, right?
Yes, I was delighted with the feedback. Because that is precisely my goal. I want - both as a lecturer and as a managing director at csi - to support people in starting their career and thereby on the path to the future. Not by preaching to them about what I know better as an old hand, but by letting them have their own experiences and discussing real, totally practical questions. Because all the knowledge in the world won't help if you don't know how to apply it. So my lecture is about giving my students an overview of the various 'development processes'. For example, we begin in the first lecture with getting to grips with the three terms 'vision, mission and strategy', using practical examples. The result that we develop in this first session then forms the basis for the future success of the lecture - the students develop their own mission and strategy for the vision 'This is the coolest lecture of my studies'. The lecture is interactive because I speak directly to the students from the start and invite them to directly shape the lecture with me.
This has the advantage that the questions which interest the students are brought to the table and answered on an equal footing by all participants, including myself. As I mentioned before, I don't see myself as the person giving the lecture who therefore knows better, but rather as a motivator to consider together what is at the heart of the question. So, what's behind the great feedback is actually the combination of great students, interesting subjects and a functioning teaching concept.
How do you manage to convey content which is relevant to the students and captivates them?
The mythical secret behind the lecture is 'participation'. It's exactly the same as with my work at csi: If I manage to give my colleagues and employees, in this case, my students, space to bring themselves and their own ideas into the mix; then it works. Then the relevant topics make their own way onto the agenda and there is a strong motivation to participate.
That's why the lecture is conceived in such a way that there is enough space within a fixed structure to provide 'freedom for teaching'. In this way, in my opinion, each semester, the most important subjects and process areas of a company be discussed and at the same time, the students are given the opportunity to set their own focuses and target the relevant questions for them. We deal with a wide range of topics here - from types of organisations to development processes, down to subjects such as how the individual can cope with stress, cognitive distortions and 'how can I use negotiation tactics in my first wage discussion?' The students prepare these key terms with their own content, and they are then openly discussed in the group and supplemented from experiences and different input from the other participants. The subjects discussed are made tangible at the end in the form of 'games'.
What was your 'coolest lecture' during your studies?
I can think of two: During my first degree it was the subject of robotics. We actually had the task and opportunity to run small projects in groups 'against one another' in the robotics lab. Very independently, so that I remember a fantastic afternoon when we developed our 'manufacturing line' together and then always had a cool drink in the courtyard. The second lecture was during my Master's in Systems Engineering. We had a professor with a biology background. Speaking with him about systems, system limits and system rules and discussing examples beyond technology - I really enjoyed it!
You are not only a lecturer, you are also familiar with the business side. What do people starting a career find particularly difficult, in your opinion? How do you support 'newcomers' in the company?
The switch from studying to the working world is one thing above all: super exciting! From the decision about what you want to do, to searching for a suitable job and the interview including wage negotiations, to starting in an unknown world with new participants, processes and structures - you are bombarded with lots of new impressions and emotions for which you cannot really prepare yourself purely theoretically. You have to live it.
I notice that it is difficult for many young employees to find a balance: between work and leisure, customer and employer, colleagues and boss, quality of work and amount, patience and zeal. I believe they have to first learn or make themselves aware that a) there will always be more work, so you can't ever be finished, b) work always flows towards places where it is properly completed and c) a good idea alone is not enough to be successful. Companions and the right timing are also a part of it.
In our company, we work with a mentoring programme. Every new employee is given a mentor from the first week. That's a person who already has experience and an overview and can use this to convey security. At the same time, we train employees to develop a theoretical foundation and practically throw them - with the support of their mentor - in at the deep end from the first week, so we let them loose on customers and transfer responsibility to them. This method has proven effective.
Given the choice, many go to the large brand companies. Why is it worth approaching smaller companies and suppliers as well?
For me personally, smaller companies have a decisive advantage: as an employee, it is much easier to get an opportunity to become familiar with different subject areas. We are much more flexible and we can try things out beyond the fixed organisational structures. With us, for example, employees with a few years of professional experience already hold job interviews. They still know exactly what it was like starting at csi and can put that across in a credible manner. That isn't possible in large groups, because then there are HR departments which take care of it, who often don't really know the departments at all.
What do you tell your students as a takeaway when you finish your lecture?
I wish them every success for their upcoming exams and start in their professional life. I also hope that they have three questions in their backpack from the 'csi-triad'. I introduced this in our company a few years ago. The idea behind it is simple: no matter what you are doing - ask yourself three questions: What is the goal? Who will you interact with? How will you approach it? I also personally use the stimuli which result from the answers - at the university, when preparing for workshops and in colleague discussions. They help me progress in every situation and perhaps they will do the same for my students as well in the future.
Last but not least, I encourage them to be brave, to keep their eyes open and also sometimes take a look around. Because as long as you don't yet have any major obligations, you can gladly risk something now and then. Exciting opportunities also often result beyond the 'known development paths of the industrial engineer'. Not long ago, I had an employee who applied to us for a final examination as a mechanical engineer. Instead of a normal engineering topic, we took a different path together - he developed a board game on the subject of project management. The game exists today and we have had great game evenings together playing it in our team, as well as at other locations. This was a successful case of what I also want to achieve with and in my lecture: Connecting information with background and emotion and thereby creating - hopefully positive - experiences which endure.
That brings us back full circle to the first question. Thank you for taking time for the interview.
