14 January 2020 Venue Lamex Stadium Attendance
Report: Stevenage 0-0 Oldham
Jim Steele
The points were shared at home against on Tuesday evening in a goalless draw against Oldham Athletic...
Both sides had their opportunities to win, the Latics with the better of the first half before Boro had the better of the second, but with the match being played in chaotic conditions, it was always going to be a night of few chances and plenty of fight in the middle of the park.
Stevenage got off to a good start in the game, creating the first chances during the opening five minute during a frenetic start to proceedings. Good work down the left hand side allowed Leesley to pull the ball back for the on-rushing Carter who couldn't quite poke the ball home in amongst a crowded six yard box. Digby almost connected to the resulting corner with his head, and when the ball fell back into the danger area it sparked a goalmouth scramble which again was just about cleared.
Jonny Smith had Oldham's first half-chance, a speculative shot from 18 yards out at a narrow angle, that moved in the wind and formed Farman to palm away. Another quickly followed as a deflective effort ricocheted away for a corner.
The weather was causing chaos with strong winds and heavy rain, as both sides struggled to build together attacks. Oldham were enjoying the better of the territory with the wind behind them, but Boro's defence were holding firm.
On 35 minutes, Segbe Azankpo headed in from close range after a brilliant cross from the left-hand side, but the Assistant had raised his flag for offside.
List and then Guthrie had a brilliant double chance with 39 minutes gone, as Carter played List in down the left hand side, whose shot was parried into the air for Guthrie to attack with his head, but his header fell the wrong side of the post.
A promising counter-attack went by the wayside soon after, as Leesley broke down the middle, but a poor pass out wide to Guthrie saw it stall, with List running down the middle, not seen.
With the wind behind them in the second half, Boro again started on the front-foot. A fine ball across the box by Lakin almost allowed List to prod home but the ball took a deflection and trickled through to the goalkeeper.
With 50 minutes on the clock, Leesley unleashed a fierce strike that had substitute goalkeeper De La Paz scrambling and beating away to deny what looked like was going to be a certain goal. N'Guessan then went right down the other end, dragging his own shot wide of Farman's near-post.
James-Wildin came close to recreating recent history with a long-range strike that flew narrowly wide of the Oldham goal as Stevenage began to dominate proceedings, looking for that crucial opening goal.
Elliott List, who picked up a knock during the first half, soon made way for Jason Cowley but Azankpo came close to scoring for the visitors, latching onto Smith's low cross at the near-post, only to find the side netting.
Farman was once again putting himself in the conversation for Man of the Match, not overworked but making a number of crucial saves throughout the contest. None more so impotant
With 14 minutes to go, De La Paz denied Lakin with an unbelievable save down to his near-post, parrying away a first time shot after great work from Cowley inside the area to cause chaos amongst the Oldham defence.
It was a much more dangerous second half from the Stevenage attacke and Heads were in hands two minutes later, as Guthrie hit the crossbar with a header from close range as the pressure continued to mount.
Ben Kennedy replaced Michael Timlin with 10 minutes to go and aside from a Cowley header that De La Paz forced wide, neither side could carve out that final golden chance as Boro had to make do with a point once again.

Discovered in 1866 by Marcus Powell the Richardson Goldmine will open this year for recreational geology and historic tours.
I took my 14 year old nice and nephew there while on a crystal hunting vacation. It wasn't planned a guy at or camp site told me about it so I took a chance. we were from Niagara fall ON . The Richardson's mine was the best part of our trip and our trip was awesome. The owner Kim is amazing and I feel blessed to have met her. We had a great time with her and she explained things so well you felt like you were transported back. The site itself was awesome except for the bugs I loved it all and look forward to meeting up again.
Believer. All dreams come true.


It is not hard to spurn human consolation when we have the divine. It is, however, a very great thing indeed to be able to live without either divine or human comforting and for the honor of God willingly to endure this exile of heart, not to seek oneself in anything, and to think nothing of one's own merit.
I have never met a man so religious and devout that he has not experienced at some time a withdrawal of grace and felt a lessening of fervor. No saint was so sublimely rapt and enlightened as not to be tempted before and after. He, indeed, is not worthy of the sublime contemplation of God who has not been tried by some tribulation for the sake of God. For temptation is usually the sign preceding the consolation that is to follow, and heavenly consolation is promised to all those proved by temptation. "To him that overcometh," says Christ, "I will give to eat of the Tree of Life."17 Divine consolation, then, is given in order to make a man braver in enduring adversity, and temptation follows in order that he may not pride himself on the good he has done.


If you know me or have been following my blog, then you know my how excited I am about loosing 50 lbs. on Nutrisystem. I used to talk about it all the time. You can even find my whole journey HERE. I still share some of my tips on social media and my success story can be found on the Nutrisystem page. You may have even seen my picture flash up on the TV behind Marie as she speaks. If you blinked, you missed it. I love sharing my weight loss success story with everyone. It's been a fun journey and a life changing experience.
It's been a little over three years and people keep asking me if I still eat Nutrisystem. The answer is "YES" I still eat Nutrisystem food. I love it that much! Its so convenient and takes the guess work out of eating right. It's like having my own little chef.
So, here is where I stand on my weight loss journey 3 years later.
For the past year or so, I have been on the Nutrisystem Maintenance Plan. With this plan, I eat most foods on my own using the nutritional information I learned from being on this diet. "I always felt weird calling it a "diet" since it was so easy and delicious!".
I pay a low annual price for this plan. This keeps me a member of Nutrisystem and allows me access to counselors and special savings. I order foods from the A la Carte menu as I need them with a percentage off and free shipping. I will order an average of two or three weeks worth of foods and make it last a month while I eat most of my own foods.
I have found that I have put on a few pounds but am keeping it in control. I like the size I am now. I'm still in a size 4 or small, continue to have energy and my health is overall great! Nutrisystem always has my back. I love knowing how to control my weight and I know what foods and snacks work for me and which ones work against me.
One of my favorite flex breakfasts is Avocado toast and a side of fruit.
Here are a few tips I would like to share for those that are at the point to maintaining the weight you lost with Nutrisystem. I am not going to tell you what to eat, you already know that. I want to give you some advice on some issues that I have fought against and where you need to be careful.
FLEX MEALS- Meals on your own can easily be turned into "cheat meals". You may say to yourself "Ill eat anything I want and eat Nutrisystem food all day tomorrow".
THINK- This can easily become a habit and you will gradually gain without realizing it. You need to be in control of your eating. So, watch what you put on your plate.
SOLUTION: Eat a small healthy serving. Eat slow and take small bites. Try taking laying your silverware down between bites.
Make sure you eat 4 servings of vegetables, drink lots of water and get enough calories with the help of healthy power fuels and smart carbs between meals.
Do not eat in front of the TV. It can lead to binge eating.
PORTION CONTROL- Do not come home from work in the afternoons and open your refrigerator or pantry up and decide at that moment to eat your own meal.
THINK- You will start grabbing everything you see. You will nibble while preparing your dinner because lets face it, you are hungry.
SOLUTION- Plan your meals. Make them ahead of time and use portion control containers.
EATING OUT- Eating out can be wonderful yet intimidating to a dieter. Over eating comes easy, because lets face it, eating out tastes so good!
THINK- A regular plate at a restaurant averages two meals. Even a salad can put you over your limit.
SOLUTION- Limit eating out to no more than twice a week. Avoid drive thrus where you are forced to eat in the car.
Order a meal off the "A La Carte" or "Lite" menu.
If you get a full dinner plate, ask the waiter to bring you a box at the beginning of your meal and put half away to take home. Use it to spice up a Nutrisystem meal later.
ALCOHOL DRINKING- We all know that drinking alcohol is not a healthy choice but if your out with friends and want to enjoy a drink, avoid starchy beers and high calorie drink mixes.
THINK- Drinking can also cause you to munch on the wrong foods.
SOLUTION- Settle for one 4oz glass of wine. Some wines are as low as 75 calories per glass.
SNACKS- Oh here is my weakness! I love sweets! Fortunately, while being on Nutrisystem, I do not have the cravings like I used too and its easier to say no to cakes.......Never mind, it's not! I love cake. Put a piece in front of me and I'll eat it! This is were I have failed while on the Maintenance plan.
THINK- A piece of cake can have the same calories as full meal!
SOLUTION- Eat the cake. JUST EAT THE CAKE!!!!!!!
Or be strong and take a sliver. Maybe scrape off the frosting first. You can always keep a Nutrisystem snack close by and eat that instead. They have wonderful brownies, woopie pies and chocolate cake that will satisfy you just as well!
I lost my comment...I wanted to say hooray and ask about the freshness of the food. And I'm going back to read about your journey!
Those are all great ideas. I am so tickled that the program worked for you and you obviously learned a lot along the way about maintaining.
All good tips, Lisa! I do Weight Watchers and whenever I find myself gaining back a few lbs I start counting points again - it's far easier to take off 5 or 10 lbs than 20+ so I try to keep it in check!


The french goalkeeper of Győri Audi ETO KC, Amandine Leynaud has extended her contract for another year, until the summer of 2020, because she feels that alongside her successes with the national team she can do her best to achieve the highest goals at club level as well.
The management of the Győri Audi ETO KC continued the work on the preparations for the implementation of the future plans and completing the team, why we can once again report a joyful extension of a contract. World-class Olympic silver medalist, World Champion and European Champion goalkeeper, Amandine Leynaud joined the green and white team in the summer of 2018 and did not arrive with a smaller goal than to win everything possible.
"I'm very happy because of the prolongation of my contract in Győr. I am very pleased with the experience of Győr, the professional circumstances and the attitude of the club, the professional staff and my teammates. I am sure that we can achieve great success together, which is why I am happy to be able to defend the goal of Győr until the summer of 2020" said Amandine Leynaud.
We wish Amandine Leynaud great successes in green and white jersey!


After using the GT Titler for the past week it is great. I've had a couple times where I would like to control a color of a shape that I've created in GT via the API.
An example to this would be during a sports game you want a lower third background to have a different color based on what team you're showing. Currently the only way I could do this was creating a similar image and importing that, then via API switching the image to match the team selected.
You can change anything in the title editor quickly... you just need to turn the images/items on in GT title editor when you create the title. If you use 1 pixel colour image as a background fill you can change colour pretty fast with programmed shortcuts or selecting a new 1 pixel colour in title editor. You can also use storyboard pages under animation to create a graphic title with up to 10 different colour combinations that you can select in vMix by right clicking on the title.


The last three days of our trip, (12-14) we covered a lot of miles as we drove back to Utah from Missouri.
First, we headed north into Iowa again to see the Kanesville Tabernacle, a replica of the original tabernacle where Brigham Young was sustained as the second President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1847 in Council Bluffs.
I think the missionaries said that about 1000 people were present when President Brigham Young was sustained. It must have been a tight fit!
A neat little trio of portraits of Brigham Young and his counselors, Heber C. Kimball and Willard Richards.
Statues depicting the new First Presidency outside the tabernacle.
I was really excited to watch the video presented in the Visitors' Center next door: it detailed the travels of the Mormon Battalion, including discussion about the Mormon Emigrant Trail and the establishment of Pleasant Valley, named by Henry Bigler. I grew up in the Pleasant Valley ward! In fact, I participated in a commemorative pioneer trek that began at Tragedy Spring, also mentioned in the video.
After this stop, we headed to Lincoln, where we met up with some friends of the Bradshaw family. We continued on our journey the next day after staying in North Platte for the night.
Chimney Rock. Couldn't get very close to it; this picture was taken with a very good lens.
The sign here in front talked about how at different periods in time, there have been different standards of preservation. While it used to be that anybody could put up a little plaque on the rock, they don't allow that now.
We were so hungry, though, by this time, that we just got out of the car, took a few pictures, and continued on our way.
Afterward, we headed to the cabin in Utah.
"Judgment Day, May 21, 2011" -- um... nope! And anyway, "Of that day and hour knoweth no man..." But here is some information about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ and what we can do to be ready for it!
We spent the last day of our trip at the cabin before we had to get back to the real world of work and responsibility. Although it at times felt like a whirlwind trip, it was nice to get away from our routines and see so many cool things together. If you ever want to try a similar journey and need help planning it out, we can share some information with you! One of the best parts about seeing so many Church-owned sites is that it's free to do so. You don't have to pay any fees to see the replicas of buildings or walk through the visitors' centers -- the tithing contributions of church members pay for them, among other things, and the "staff" is made up of mostly missionaries who are not paid to be there.

Vote with Love Today. Live in Love Tomorrow.
There's still time to vote today, and so I have a very brief message for those who consider themselves faith leaders in the US.
Do not forget that love, at the center of who you are and what you do, at the center of all things and all people -- when you go to the polls today, and AFTER. Continue to take that love with you, and let it guide you. Remember to not allow your vocation, your heart, and your politics to become separated. They cannot be.
Remember that the people who vote differently than you are also human beings, who are living in a country that is being actively radicalized towards hatred. Valerie Kaur reminds us that hate comes from a sense of threat - whether real or imagined.
If you still have not voted and are going in person, do not forget to look your voting officials in the eye, to see them giving their time and energy when they didn't have to be there. (I myself failed at this one this morning, I'll be honest.) Then, vote. Vote for the candidates who strive to serve and protect those who are not simply lining their pocketbooks, but who simply want to be free to live their best possible lives. Vote for candidates who will not tolerate hate crimes nor hateful speech, whether it comes from the White House or is found spray-painted on the sides of synagogues or mosques. Vote for those who promote justice for all, instead of violence.
And then, go back to what you do - and keep fighting each day for this kind of love.
P.S. Thanks for standing for love.
P.P.S. Want to develop more skills, or discover new resources, for activating this love and galvanizing your community? Take our faith leader survey and give us your feedback.
P.P.P.S. - Want to see two INCREDIBLE faith leaders provide a message of hope in the wake of last week's horrors at Tree of Life? Here's Rabbi Angela Buchdahl and Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis on the Today show last week.

The Official Bingo Rules
How to play: Watch an episode of a show (or a movie). Watch for the plot elements listed on your game board. When one comes up, place a penny on that square. When you get five in a row, you win!
Playing with several people: The more the merrier! Whoever gets five in a row first wins.
Playing with one person: Even if you're alone, you can still play against the writers of the show. If you get five in a row before the end of the show, you win. If you don't, the writers actually produced an original script, and they win.
Additional Rules:
1. The Center Square:The center square is free. You can place a penny on it right away... or leave it empty and admire the beautiful picture. Either way, you get the square.
2. Disagreement: A lot of times, people will disagree as to whether a square has come up. ("Look, Xena took out her chakram. That's an insane chakram feat, isn't it?") In a case where there's a question, here's what you do:
a. If there's several other players, they can vote on whether the square has really come up.
b. If there's only one other player, he or she can veto the square.
c. But come on, be fair. Remember, it's not about winning or losing, it's about making fun of TV.
3. What does that Mean? If there's a question about what a square means, go online and check out the complete square list for that board. A lot of the squares are explained.
4. Winning: In order to win, a player must have 5 pennies in a row (or 4 pennies and the center square) and shout out the name of the game (for instance, "Tylo!"). After all, that's the most funnest part!
5. Tie:
a. In the event of a tie, whoever shouts the game's name first wins.
b. If it's still a tie, count the number of pennies on the board. The highest number wins.
c. If it's still a tie, it's a tie. Live with it.
5. Making your own board: If you want you can draw your own board. That way, you can illustrate the squares yourself and add in your own phrases. You can also arrange 5 easy squares in a row so you'll always win. This is legal but frowned upon. People who do this are called "Bingo Gapers."

The Elders or Pastor Mark could solve this present controversy. If they were willing to soften their hearts, critically examine themselves and wrestle with the issues then healing and redemption could proceed. But they attack others and harden their hearts to the entreaties of their members and brothers and sisters in Christ. Why?

Tripping the Light Fantastic By Carlo McCormick
By Content Manager
For some 40 years, Tessa Hughes-Freeland has been, in her own highly idiosyncratic way, carving out an utterly unique place within the realm of art and film. Sometimes it makes sense, corresponding with cultural currents that have placed her work firmly within a recognizable context, allowing us to see her as part of something larger, be it the lineages of expanded cinema, underground filmmaking, postfeminist erotica, multiprojection psychedelic lightshows, and experimental film, or more crucial to her identity in the mid 80s as a seminal figure of New York's Cinema of Transgression movement, and even now anew as a continuous presence in a film renaissance. That all these terms somehow fit her career to date, yet also completely fail to capture the essence of her oeuvre, might remind us why artists so loathe adopting labels. Perhaps we just need another phrase to encapsulate the entirety and evolution of her ongoing efforts to reposition the 20th century's dominant language of motion pictures into something more elusive, migratory, subversive, and irascible. Better yet would be if we would grant those who work in fields not immediately associated with fine art practices the simple acknowledgment that they are not defined by medium or genre, but they are rather first and foremost artists regardless of their discipline.
Tessa Hughes-Freeland's films are far more concerned with the issues of a fine-art practice—aesthetics, materiality, composition, and sensory experience—than what moviemakers in the traditional sense are trying for. In movies, all emotions ranging from the visceral to the sentimental are triggered by narrative. Even when she may at times rely on such a language of film, allowing aspects of dialogue or plot to slip in and out of her moving pictures, the sense of a story is almost incidental, pushed to the side by aspects so off-kilter and disorienting that any synopsis would be utterly superfluous to what could more properly be called effect. Simply put, Tessa is not a storyteller. I probably sensed this more than 35 years ago when I saw her early movie Baby Doll, a clandestine recording of two dancers at the old Tribeca topless bar Baby Doll Lounge talking about their lives and experiences working there. Since then the movie has been regarded as a classic not only for its revelatory disclosure of women's perspectives but as a unique document of how sex workers were part and parcel of the downtown scene.
Baby Doll has gradually found its place in the canon of experimental film, and more recently even been included in the genre of documentaries, but it's just so raw and real as to be a misfit for either, and as the girls try to make sense of their situations, viewers remain equally at odds trying to make sense of it as a document—the movie is just all elbows, thrusting and nonlinear, confusing, noisy, and dark like the world it conjures. In the nearly four decades that I have lived with this artist, I have as such never really asked her about what she's working on in terms of what it might be about. Even when there is something to follow—a story of seduction and debasement culled from Bataille's Blue of Noon (Dirty), the dehumanizing horrors of heroin addiction (Rat Trap), the rape of a nymph by a satyr (Nymphomania), or any of her elusive performance-based portraits of artists including Mike Bidlo, Rhonda Zwillinger, the Butthole Surfers, and Poppo—she's never so much concerned with content as she is with process, and consistently forgoes the idea of illuminating an audience with meaning or resolution to rather subsume the viewer in someplace magically foreign, dangerously adrift, visually disquieting and, in essence, beyond words. In this way, there is probably no better example of her quasi-narrative technique than the obscure late-80s gem The Story of the Little Green Man, which is her most literal of stories few of us could actually read because it is a film of two hands speaking to us in sign language.
For many generations now, underground and experimental filmmakers have had an unfortunate relationship with the consumer culture and society of the spectacle from which their medium in fact emerges. Far too weird, personal, and idiosyncratic to ever find a place in commercial movies, they also fail in the marketplace of fetish objects, typically exerting a tremendous influence on their times but never financially rewarded in the way that painters often are. We see them, legends all, occasionally pop up in the galleries or even museums, but it is all too often a default compromise in their work, trying to fob off ephemera or visual relics and simulacra far from their real genius to reach an art market primarily concerned with objects. In this fundamental regard Tessa Hughes-Freeland's ongoing investigation of the material aspects of her medium, penchant for radical combinative juxtapositions, postmodern appreciation for found footage, and deliberate steps to knit her works together through object-based assemblages while breaking down the authority of the picture plane via these presentations and installations, makes her a rare filmmaker able to communicate in the language of fine art. In this way, the hybridity of her film fans or her three movies projected on a folding screen, one of which (Secret Message) is in fact entirely text-based being made of Letraset, emphasize a physicality not associated with film while maintaining a way of disrupting normative perceptions that is central to all her work.
But all this is merely an explanation for what lies beyond clarity and definition. Tessa Hughes-Freeland continues to operate in a more flexible space of visual and linguistic slippage, somewhere intermediate, interstitial, and indeterminate. At times it all makes sense, but first and foremost it is about the sensory and sensual. In this way her work may follow in a lineage of filmmakers like Bruce Conner, Maya Deren, Kenneth Anger, and Derek Jarman, but as it continually drifts off into the mesmeric she seems closer to the notion of spielraum—that has little correlative in the English language, but could be considered a kind of creative leeway or latitude that incorporates its own margin of error as part of the whole—suggested by Walter Benjamin in his lesser-known aside within The Promise of Cinema. This is how she works, beyond format, formalism, or function, a mechanical and handmade conjuring of light that casts shadows of doubt and delusions of hallucinatory unreality.

This table shows each major city in Taiwan, the city's population, and the city's area.
Kaohsiung has the most area while New Taipei has the highest population. Many will often confuse New Taipei with Taipei.
However, they're separate cities.
The former surrounds the latter, yet they are both still connected.
Chiayi has the lowest population, yet it's still connected to most of Taiwan's major cities through the High-Speed Rail (HSR). The HSR is Taiwan's bullet train that runs 220 miles (350 kilometers) along the country's west coast.
1. New Taipei City
New Taipei marries Taipei's benefits and affordable living. You can get to most places throughout the city with ease due to the north's public transportation.
If you're not bound by commuting to work, you can move to Tamsui, which offers new and affordable apartments. Otherwise, staying in the Banqiao District puts you beside a bus and HSR stations.
Best of all, it connects to the Circular Line metro station, which once it's complete, will take you around a good portion of Taipei and New Taipei.
With access to an HSR station, you'll never find yourself short of things to do. New Taipei is home to various cultural attractions like:
Houtong Cat Village
Jiufen Old Street
Tamsui Fisherman's Wharf
2. Taipei City
By far one of Taiwan's most convenient cities. Hence, why most westerners will flock there.
It has convenience stores and hypermarkets everywhere. You'll also find clinics and hospitals at almost every corner. To top it all off, Taipei has the best public transportation I've seen.
You can get anywhere in the city quickly without driving. It's also affordable.
Though this city has the highest living cost, if you have a decent job, you have nothing to worry about.
Some families will choose Da'an District due to its access to family-friendly hotspots like Da'an park. Whereas, others will choose Neihu due to it being close to the Taipei American School.
If you're younger and have plenty of disposable income, you'll love Xinyi District. It's expensive, but it's home to a good number of nightclubs and bars.
Here's a digital nomad's guide to Taipei.
3. Taichung City
Taichung is Taiwan's second most populated city that resides in the nation's center. It's not condensed like Taipei, so things are much more dispersed. While the city is slowly adding more transportation, you may want to consider buying a motorbike if you live here.
Or you can rent a motorbike when you need it for a fair price.
When you need a weekend getaway, you'll seldom find yourself short of things to do. For instance, there's the National Taichung Theater. Or, if you want to embrace nature, walk along the city's restored Shin Sei Green Waterway.
Most foreigners will live in the West District or Xitun. You'll need to pay a lot for bills though.
To avoid living among a ton of foreigners, you can check out Beitun. There are plenty of metro stations here and you'll have some pleasant areas to explore.
4. Tainan City
If you want nightlife, you won't like Tainan. However, it's Taiwan's oldest city—the nation's birthplace.
If you prefer living in a place ripe with Taiwan's cultural relics and has some western amenities, then choose here. For instance, you'll find some western restaurants to indulge in when you don't feel like having Taiwanese food.
You'll need a vehicle when living here, though. But with how much you'll save on living costs, the southern city may be worth it to you.
5. Kaohsiung City
If you want most of the comforts Taiwan and New Taipei offer without paying too much, check out Kaohsiung. They don't have tremendous English support, but it's a great area to practice your Mandarin Chinese skills.
Looking for night markets?
Don't worry. This city has Liuhe Night Market among other markets.
You may find a lot of air pollution in Kaohsiung. This isn't ideal for you who are sensitive to pollutants.
To have access to Kaohsiung Metro, you'll want to check out Zuoying. It's an affordable area and close to various shopping centers and bars.
6. Taoyuan City
Taoyuan is home to Taiwan's biggest airport and also has the most expats from Southeast Asia. It's convenient with its metro system and offers plenty of amenities.
If you don't want to live in New Taipei and Taipei, this northern city is a great alternative.
Prices are lower and things are more spread out. You'll also have plenty of places to take walks or hike if needed.
Many foreigners seem to choose Yangmei or Zhongli neighborhoods.
7. Chiayi City
A city famous for its turkey rice. And turkeys.
The previously mentioned, along with affordable prices, makes this city a lovely place for you who love Taiwanese cuisine.
It's inconvenient to access, but if you have the money for a vehicle, that doesn't matter.
8. Taitung City
Usually, when heading east, you won't find many people or massive cities like Taiwan's west. Taitung is sort of an exception. You'll find many businesses like most bigger cities have like Carrefour.
They also don't have much pollution.
However, there are not many reasons to move there aside from wanting a laid-back lifestyle. Work options are limited. But you'll also have access to the countryside, which means plenty of hiking paths.
If you want to visit somewhere like Taipei or Kaohsiung, prepare to spend hours on a train.
They don't have an HSR.
9. Yilan City
Yilan's a tiny city along Taiwan's eastern coast. It's fairly spread out and doesn't offer much public transportation aside from buses. You'll need to buy or rent vehicles when living here.
This city also has plenty of earthquakes that happen off its shores. You'll face the brunt of the trembling.
It's a beautiful area, though. You'll find plenty of houses. If you're wondering, foreigners can buy real estate in Taiwan if there are reciprocal laws in your country. For example, US citizens can buy land.
You'll also find cleaner air here and bigger apartments. At the cost of foreigner amenities like bars, though.
Are you a surfer?
Great. You'll find plenty of opportunities to catch a wave.

Nomadlist
These prices include rent, food, and utilities. Public transportation will vary based on your preferences.
Taipei is by far the nation's most expensive city, but that comes with all of the English support and convenience. Whereas, Yilan has the lowest costs without much support.
Keep in mind that when living outside Taipei and New Taipei, you won't have the comforts of convenient public transportation. Thus, you'll likely need to buy a motorbike or car, which will add more to your living costs.
If you make at least $2098 per month and set 40% of your income aside for rent, you can live in whatever city you want without any issues. These prices are at the higher end of the spectrum, too.
You'll likely find cheaper apartments that still offer plenty of amenities. For example, $1000 for rent in New Taipei would get you a modern apartment.
To learn about finding an apartment in Taiwan, read the in-depth guide I wrote. It'll save you a lot of time you would have wasted researching elsewhere.

This table shows available public transport options in each city
Taoyuan has the most popular airport in Taiwan, having over 30 million passengers per year.
It's an ideal airport for landing in, especially if you want to reach cities along Taiwan's west coast.
You can also reach a good portion of Taoyuan by using a combination of their MRT system and bus. If you want to reach Taipei or New Taipei, you can take the Taoyuan MRT.
New Taipei and Taipei both offer the most convenient public transportation. Though, I said Taipei has 131 stations, many of which are in New Taipei.
For places you can't access with the metro, you can rent a YouBike or take a bus.
If you're in central Taiwan, Taichung now has a metro that'll take you through a good portion of the city. For places you can't reach, you may want to get yourself a motorbike.
Kaohsiung has a light rail that'll take you through a good portion of the city.
Tainan, Chiayi, and Taitung don't have the luxury of rapid transits.

This table shows the average rain in teach Taiwan city. It also shows the average high and low temperatures during winter and summer.
Sources for average weather and rain days per year: National Centers for Environmental Information (NOAA) and Weather Atlas.
Out of this list, Yilan has the most rainy days while Tainan has the least. The Taoyuan has the lowest average temperatures during the winter. And Kaohsiung has the warmest winters.
No matter where you go in Taiwan, you'll encounter heat. New Taipei; however, has the highest averages during the summer. Whereas, Taipei has the lowest average during the summer.
Taiwan has a subtropical climate. That means it's humid. Because of this, you'll need to keep in mind that humidity will impact these temperatures.
If you want to avoid pollution, staying along the east coast is your best bet.
Taiwan's only a little smaller than the US states of Delaware and Maryland combined. Because of this, you don't need to worry about constraining yourself to one city to access certain tourist spots.
You may want to situate yourself near certain places, though. That way, you're not bored when you get off work.
You'll find most of Taiwan's best beaches along the East Coast. Or in Kenting.
If you want to live within a reasonable distance from a beach, try New Taipei's Tamsui. You could rent a YouBike, catch a bus, or take the Danhai LRT and reach beaches like Baishawan or Laomei.
With Taiwan's real estate prices and the frequent typhoons, I don't recommend retiring close to the beach.
Night Markets and Other Food
If you want the most diverse food options, you'll want to live in (or around) Taipei. It has over 17 night markets and foods from other countries you can't find elsewhere. For example, Hispanic food.
When living in Taipei, you can reach any of New Taipei's street food markets.
You didn't ask, but I'll answer anyway. Here's a list of Taiwanese night markets:
Explore More Night Markets Throughout Taiwan
Northern Night Markets:
City God Temple
Gongguan
Lehua
Nanjichang
Raohe
Shilin
Snake Alley
Central & Eastern Night Markets:
Fengjia
Dongdamen
Southern Night Markets:
Tainan Flower Market
Regarding shopping, you'll have plenty of hypermarkets available throughout most cities.
If you have a Costco membership, you can use that in Taiwan. You'll need to venture to the outskirts of whatever town you live in, though. Most notable cities throughout the country will have Costco Wholesale warehouses except:
When staying in the above areas, you could opt for other Taiwan hypermarkets Carrefour, A-Mart, or RT-Mart.
If you want to avoid the city, you can still stick to the towns or eastern cities and have access to various food and services because of convenience stores. When getting out of your home for fresh air, you can stop at any 7-Eleven, Family Mart, or other chain and grab some warm food while reading a book.
Taipei has the widest selection of bars and clubs. No matter what day of the week you want to go out, you'll always find a crowd getting a drink after work. Venus always likes to keep guests flowing, so they'll often host events.
Best of all, it's easy for you to get to and from these places. No worrying about driving.
Though Yilan and Taichung don't have much of a nightlife scene, you can still take a bus or train and reach Taipei's city center within an hour. With New Taipei, you'll just need to take the MRT, a bike, or even walk to reach Taipei.
Taichung; however, has a developing bar and club culture for its massive young population.
You'll find some places in Kaohsiung, but it's not lively. Like other cities on this list, they don't have many nightlife hotspots.
Taipei has the most English support. However, finding places with English-speaking staff is often hit-or-miss. The same goes for New Taipei.
In Taipei, you'll find more English-speaking landlords.
Regarding medical care; sometimes you'll find doctors who speak perfect English. Other times you'll encounter doctors who don't speak any. Thus, I recommend bringing a friend who speaks Mandarin or a translator.
I wrote a piece on how an English speaker will do in Taiwan. Check it out.
Anyway, throughout the rest of the country, you may have a harder time finding English speakers.
If you stick to shopping at convenience stores and hypermarkets, you have nothing to worry about.
No matter what city you're in, you'll find plenty of English signage for public transportation.
Yilan offers the most affordable cost of living, but the East Coast has the most earthquakes.
Taipei has the most English support. However, it's the most expensive city.
Taichung is a growing city. They don't offer the most public transportation, though.
Weigh the pros and cons of living before choosing the best city in Taiwan to live in. While living costs may affect your bottom line, you'll need to think about your daily commute. The more time you have, the more you can enjoy Taiwan and everything it offers.

With the opening weekend of NFL Football here it's time to hit the play books and come up with a Game Plan. We've put together the perfect game day menu and mapped out a cooking strategy so that Sunday morning, you can kick back and relax with a Bloody Mary (or two).
I always like to serve a slow cooker or braised meal that I make ahead on Saturday. Most slow-cooked dishes are even better the day after cooking as it allows the flavors to really incorporate. Also, if it's a rich dish, you'll be able to get rid of any fat that solidifies on the surface after it chills over night. On Sunday, just reheat the dish slowly on the 'warm' setting in your slow-cooker or on the stovetop on a low setting.
Chili is a quintessential game day menu item. Our recipe is simple, has tons of flavor, and fresh veggies. Prep toppings like tortilla chips, sour cream, grated cheese, red onions and avocado so guests can fix their own bowls with all of their favorites.
1) Heat olive oil over medium-high in a large heavy bottomed stock pot. Add onions and garlic and cook about 3 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook onions and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes. Add carrots, celery, peppers and serrano chiles and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables become soft but retain their shape, about 10 minutes.
2) Meanwhile, heat a large sauté pan over medium high heat. Add beef and break up with a fork. Add 1/4 cup of the vegetables to the beef to add flavor while cooking. Season beef with salt and pepper. Cook until beef is nicely browned, about 5-7 minutes. With a slotted spoon add the beef to the large pot of vegetables, discard the excess fat.
3) Mix in the chili powder and cumin and cook until fragrant and the vegetables and beef are coated in seasoning. Add beer and cook until the liquid is reduced by half, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add chipotle, adobo sauce and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Stir in the beans and transfer the chili to the slow cooker. Simmer on low for 4-5 hours. Serve chili with sour cream, cheese and cilantro.
This braised beef is easy, affordable and requires just 6 ingredients. To serve, toast some ciabatta or sandwich buns and melt some provolone or swiss cheese with a side of the au jus for dunking!
A blend of beef and pork goes into these meatballs, which are then slow-cooked in marinara and topped with a creamy parmesan and white cheddar cheese sauce.
I like to stick to the basics for Game Day dips so they appeal to a crowd (think: Guacamole, Salsa, Hummus) but our Dip feed has 25 more unique options to choose from! All of these can be made on Saturday.
Add the avocados to a mixing bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Mix in the onions, tomatoes, and jalapeño and season generously with salt and pepper. Add the juice of three limes and taste; adding more lime based on your preference (I tend to like lime heavy).
Note: I've heard a lot of crazy tips for keeping guacamole from browning, but what I like to do best is add a few avocado pits to my storage vessel and add a layer of cling wrap (so it's touching the surface) before sealing it with an air tight lid. In my experience, this keeps the guacamole fresh for up to 3 days.
This is a recipe I've made for years. I don't eat a ton of cured meat, but this sandwich is truly delicious, incredibly easy and the perfect treat for special occasions. You can make this sandwich in the morning, wrap it tightly in foil, and serve it later that same evening or bring all of the ingredients along with you and set out as Gaby has done above for a DIY Sandwich Bar!
Slice the ciabatta in half lengthwise. Scoop out some of the bread from both halves to create a pocket for the sandwich ingredients. (Save the extra bread in the freezer to use as homemade bread crumbs). Drizzle both halves with olive oil and salt and pepper. Layer the red pepper and onion over the bottom half of the bread. Next add the ham, followed by the salami, soppressata and finally the cheese.
You may not need to use all of the salami,pepperoni and cheese, you just want enough to create an even layer over the ham. Sprinkle the sliced pepperoncini over the top and finish with the other half of bread. When ready to serve, slice into 1-inch slices.
Marinate these wings overnight, and bake ahead at home in a disposable tin pan so they're easy to travel with. Reheat for a few minutes in the oven when you get to your destination.
The flavor of classic stuffed artichokes without all the fuss of prepping fresh artichokes; this dish is perfect to bake and take.
Need reinforcements? These showstoppers are sure to get you a win on Sunday.
It doesn't get much better than homemade pretzels with a cheddar and IPA cheese dip!
Be sure to marinate these ribs on Saturday.
On to the fun part, cocktails! I usually ask guests to bring their beverages of choice, but I like to have a special cocktail on hand that they can fix for themselves.
Combine all ingredients in a large pitcher and stir well. Chill for at least an hour before serving.
*I sometimes thin this mix with 1/2-1 cup of water, depending on the viscosity of the tomato juice.
Prep all of the accoutrements into ramekins or on a platter with food picks.
Set out a chilled bottle of vodka and allow guests to DIY!
This Margarita recipe by @Danielyeom is the perfect blank canvas for you to get creative with different variations on the classic.
Last but not least: Dessert!
With just 5 ingredients and 20 minutes of prep time, this fudge is a no-brainer for parties!
I always make my chocolate chip cookie dough ahead of time. I think it improves the flavor and the chilled dough produces a nicer bake.

Q: Why ICollection does not implement IEnumerable? I'm trying to create a blog, so each post has some topic and vise versa (a many-to-many relationship). I've created two Interfaces and two Classes, and I want to create database using EF Code First solution. this is my code:
// interfaces

public interface IPost
{
    int id { get; set; }

    string name { get; set; }

    IEnumerable<ITopic> topics { get; set; }
}

public interface ITopic
{
    int id { get; set; }

    string name { get; set; }

    IEnumerable<IPost> posts { get; set; }
}

// classes

public class Post : IPost
{
    public int id { get; set; }

    public string name { get; set; }

    // ... (other properties)

    public virtual ICollection<Topic> topics { get; set; }
}

public class Topic : ITopic
{
    int id { get; set; }

    string name { get; set; }

    // ... (other properties)

    public virtual ICollection<Post> posts { get; set; }
}

But I get the following error:
'Topic' does not implement interface member 'ITopic.posts'. 'Topic.posts' cannot implement 'ITopic.posts' because it does not have the matching return type of 'IEnumerable<IPost>'.
And also, I get the (almost) same error for Post.
I know that ICollection<T> implements IEnumerable<T> interface. and, as you see, Post implements IPost. So, why i get this error? I tried these also (whitin Topic class):
1- public virtual ICollection<IPost> posts { get; set; }
2- public virtual IEnumerable<Post> posts { get; set; } (why this one dose not work?!)
The only code that works is public virtual IEnumerable<IPost> posts { get; set; }, but then I will lose the other propertis of a Post when enumerating topic.posts. worse, I can't create database using EF Code First solution.
Is there any workaround to solve this problem?

Q: Help to find example where $\sup\{a_nb_n|n\in N\}> \sup\{a_n|n\in N\}\sup\{b_n|n\in N\}$ In the past few hours I'm trying to find an example where $$\sup\{a_nb_n|n\in N\}> \sup\{a_n|n\in N\}\sup\{b_n|n\in N\}$$
But I just can't find it, can someone see what I miss here?
EDIT: $a_n,b_n$ are both bounded from above and below

A: How about
$$a_n =
\begin{cases}
-2,  & \text{if $n$ is even} \\
-3, & \text{if $n$ is odd}
\end{cases}$$
$$b_n =
\begin{cases}
-3,  & \text{if $n$ is even} \\
-2, & \text{if $n$ is odd}
\end{cases}$$
Then you get $6>4$.

A: Let $A_n = \{ \frac{1-n}{n} \} $ and $B_n = \{ \sin(n) \} $.
Notice $\sup A_n = 0 $ and $\sup B_n = 1 $ and $\sup (A_n B_n) = 2 $

Chandra Bahadur Dangi, known as the shortest adult on the planet for several years, has passed away after complications with pneumonia at age 75. The Guinness World Record for "shortest man ever" was claimed by Dangi in 2012. His height was measured at 1 foot 9.5 inches and he weighed only 32 pounds.
Dangi attained celebrity status after he was "discovered" by Guiness World Records. He traveled to several locations around the world, including London in 2014, where he met Sultan Kosen, the tallest man on Earth.
The shortest woman on Earth, Jyoti Amge, also met Dangi back in 2012. You can watch their meeting below.
Dangi was born in Kalimati, Nepal, having lived there all his life until 2012, when Guinness World Records came into contact with him. Many, including Guiness World Records, have expressed their sadness at Dangi's passing.

        //Open Alert dialog to delete item

        AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);

        ...

}

As i can read here: http://goo.gl/Kd1c7i one needs to pass "MyActivity.this" to the AlertDialog.Builder constructor but since the ViewHolder is a static part of the RecyclerView Adapter, i cannot refer to "MyActivity.this".
Hence i still get the error:
android.view.WindowManager$BadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application

So how can i create an AlertDialog from class which does not extend Activity?
@Edit: More code for more information:
Here is my RecyclerView Adapter constructor:
RecyclerViewCourseAdapter(ArrayList<Course> courses, Context context) {
    this.context = context;
    if (courses == null) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("courses ArrayList must not be null");
    }

    mCourseArrayList = courses;
}

I store the given context as private in the Adapter class:
private Context context;

This is my ViewHolder:
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener,View.OnLongClickListener {

    //Initialize views in Viewholder
    TextView mTextViewFirst;
    TextView mTextViewSecond;
    ImageView mImageView;
    TextView mEndPercentageTextView;

    //Context to refer to app context (for intent, dialog etc)
    Context context;

    //Adapter to notifiy data set changed
    RecyclerViewCourseAdapter mCourseAdapter;

    public ViewHolder(View itemView, Context context, RecyclerViewCourseAdapter mCourseAdapter) {

        super(itemView);
        this.context = context;
        this.mCourseAdapter = mCourseAdapter;
        itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
        itemView.setOnLongClickListener(this);
        mTextViewFirst = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.course_firstLine);
        mTextViewSecond = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.course_secondLine);
        mImageView = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.icon);
        mEndPercentageTextView = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.end_percentage_textview);
    }

This is how i create the Viewholders:
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
    //Inflate layout
    View itemView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.list_item_course, parent, false);
    ViewHolder vh = new ViewHolder(itemView, context, this);

    return vh;
}

So i create my ViewHolder with the context stored in the Adapter.
If something is still unlcear, here is my whole class:
https://github.com/Tak3r07/UniHelper/blob/master/app/src/main/java/com/tak3r07/CourseStatistics/RecyclerViewCourseAdapter.java

A: Every View has a context, change:
AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);

to
AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(v.getContext());

See the documentation for more info:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#getContext()

A: Alter your ViewHolder class to store a Context like this:
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnLongClickListener {

    private Context mContext;

    public ViewHolder(View v, Context mContext) {
        super(v);
        this.mContext = mContext;

        ...
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onLongClick(View v) {

        //Open Alert dialog to delete item

        AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(this.mContext);

        ...
    }
}

To pass your Context to the ViewHolder you must first pass it to the RecyclerView Adapter.
If you create your Adapter inside a fragment (as I mostly do) you should get the Context by overriding the onAttach-Method
@Override
public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
    super.onAttach(activity);
    this.mContext = activity; // Activity is a subclass of Context
}

Otherwise you get the Context by calling MyActivity.this

A: You can some how find a context to your Builder, one alternative is to pass it as an argument.

One among the most common electrical wiring issues is on how to wire a swap. Though making use of switches at home is sort of easy, wiring 1 might not be that easy for everyone. An ON-OFF switch is actually quite simple to wire. You will find different types of switches, but for this instance, let's say you will be setting up a single-pole toggle switch, an exceedingly popular swap (plus the easiest).
You can find three colors of wires in the regular single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and green. Splice the black wire in two and connect them about the terminal screws - one particular on top rated and also the other over the base screw of your swap. The white wire serves being a supply of uninterrupted power and is particularly normally connected to some mild coloured terminal screw (e.g., silver). Link the eco-friendly wire for the ground screw of one's change.
These actions would typically be ample to produce an average swap perform with no issue. On the other hand, for those who usually are not self-assured which you can attain the job correctly and safely and securely you much better allow the pros do it as an alternative. Soon after all, there is certainly a motive why this activity is probably the most common electrical wiring concerns asked by the majority of people.
For a few purpose, ways to wire a ceiling fan is likewise one of probably the most frequent electrical wiring concerns. To simplify this process, you should use an individual swap for a single ceiling fan. To wire the fan, it truly is only a make any difference of connecting the black wire with the ceiling fan towards the black wire in the change. If there is a light-weight, the blue wire should be linked to the black wire of your swap also.
You will discover explanations why these are typically probably the most typically requested electrical wiring concerns. One, lots of think it can be easy to carry out, and two, they are the widespread electrical tasks at your house. But then you really mustn't put your basic safety at risk as part of your aim to save cash. The stakes could even be a lot bigger in case you try to spend less and do an electrical wiring job without ample know-how or working experience.

The stacked line chart is a good alternative to displaying multiple line series when the sum of points across series is meaningful, such as a total revenue derived from a set of regional revenue series. The stacking makes it easy to see totals and trends in totals. In contrast to multiple standard line series which overlay the lines for direct series comparisons, the stacked line chart displays values offset from each other to display individual contributions towards a total.
Display custom symbols and data labels at each data point. This can help users locate key data points and quickly assess data values.

Combining enzymatic membrane bioreactor and ultraviolet photolysis for enhanced removal of trace organic contaminants: Degradation efficiency and by-products formation

Process Safety and Environmental Protection
Coupling of membrane distillation with bioreactors containing enzymes such as 'laccase' forms an enzymatic membrane bioreactor resulting in complete retention of both trace organic contaminants and enzyme, facilitating simultaneous trace organic contaminants degradation. Integration of enzymatic membrane bioreactor and ultraviolet photolysis may result in further improved degradation of trace organic contaminants in membrane-concentrate. We studied the degradation as well as by-products formation of five selected trace organic contaminants, namely, sulfamethoxazole, diclofenac, bisphenol A, oxybenzone, and carbamazepine by 'membrane distillation — ultraviolet photolysis' system and 'enzymatic membrane bioreactor — ultraviolet photolysis' system. In the former, the membrane effectively retained the trace organic contaminants and then ultraviolet photolysis of membrane-concentrate resulted in trace organic contaminant degradation in the following order: diclofenac (88 %) > sulfamethoxazole (71 %) > oxybenzone (35 %) > bisphenol A (33 %) > carbamazepine (27 %). By contrast, the enzymatic membrane bioreactor — ultraviolet photolysis system resulted in 100 % degradation of diclofenac, sulfamethoxazole, and bisphenol A and around 70 % degradation of oxybenzone and carbamazepine. This system also resulted in more than 50 % reduction in number of degradation products with 60–70 % lower abundance. Our results indicate that laccase degradation led to products that were more amenable to the post-treatment by ultraviolet photolysis. Overall, it can be concluded that for enzymatic membrane bioreactor — ultraviolet photolysis system, enzymatic pre-treatment not only helped in better degradation of the parent trace organic contaminants but also led to the formation of fewer by-products with lower abundance (i.e., more complete degradation).

Crime dialogue elicits commitment to ensure tighter security
07 May 2019 | Story Valentino Ndaba | Photo Charl Devenish
Noko Masalesa, Director of Protection Services, in conversation with students and stakeholders to plan a safe way forward.
Safety and security are human rights that constitute social justice. At the centre of the agenda at the University of the Free State's (UFS) Social Justice Week held on the Bloemfontein Campus from 17-22 April 2019 were discussions about off-campus safety. Stakeholders agreed on an upgrade to security measures in order to ensure the success and wellbeing of the student population.
A call to students
Prof John Mubangizi, Dean of the Faculty of Law, in his capacity as representative of the UFS Rector and Vice-Chancellor, Prof Francis Petersen, expressed his view on institutions of higher learning no longer functioning as ivory towers. "For any initiative to succeed, collaboration is necessary between key roleplayers," he said.
He aptly pointed out that: "We cannot underscore the importance of safety and security, not only for the university but also for the communities around us. What the university does benefits the community and vice versa. I pledge the university's commitment to play a leading part to ensure that the collaboration works," said Prof Mubangizi.
Beefing up security: Who is involved?
In view of the collaborative effort Prof Mubangizi alluded to, the engagement was twofold. First was the roundtable discussion facilitated by Protection Services which then escalated into a public dialogue where students had the opportunity to interact with external delegates.
The South African Police Services, Community Police Forum, Private Security, Mangaung Metropolitan Municipality, Provincial Commissioner, and Deputy Minister of Police were well represented in this critical conversation. Internally, members of Protection Services, Housing and Residence Affairs, Student Affairs, Institute for Social Justice and Reconciliation, Student Representative Council, and the Department of Criminology heard the plight of off-campus safety faced by students.
Changes in the horizon
The discussions culminated with recommendations which will see the future of student safety take a different direction. According to Skhululekile Luwaca, former SRC president, these include "the municipality's commitment to immediately address issues such as street lights and enforcing by-laws, ensuring an integrated accreditation system, and drafting a policy for off-campus accommodation, running more crime awareness campaigns, and giving police patrols more visibility."
In addition to resolving to set up a student safety forum with all the stakeholders, the Mangaung Metropolitan Municipality has invited the UFS to join Reclaim the City – a safety forum where practical solutions to crime are devised and implemented on a weekly basis.
Prof. Iain Benson delivers inaugural lecture in UFS's Faculty of Law
Prof. Shaun de Freitas (left) of the Faculty of Law at the UFS and Prof. Iain Benson.
Prof. Iain T. Benson delivered his inaugural address as Professor Extraordinary in the Department of Constitutional Law and Philosophy of Law in the Faculty of Law at University of the Free State (UFS) faculty last week.
Originally hailing from Canada and currently residing with his family in France, Prof. Benson is an academic with a wealth of experience and expertise in the field of law, especially with regard to the right of conscience and religion. His achievements number many, including being a Senior Associate Counsel at one of Canada's leading law firms, Miller Thompson LLP; and serving on the Founding Board of the Global Centre for Pluralism.
Apart from his work on leading cases in the United Kingdom and Ireland, Prof. Benson also has strong ties with the law in South Africa. He is part of the Continuity Committee that is responsible for the major undertaking of drawing up the South African Charter of Religious Rights and Freedoms in cooperation with all the major religions in South Africa which, when completed, will be the first use of Section 234 of the South African Constitution.
The title of the inaugural lecture was Living together with Disagreements and the Limits of the Law, which tackled various conscientious and topical issues regarding the complex relationships between the law and religions. Starting off the lecture, Prof. Benson recalled that living together with disagreement is a necessary achievement in free and democratic societies and that differences of belief and opinion should not be resolved by force acceptance of a "one-size fits all" model. Mentioning religion and same-sex marriages, Prof. Benson held these up as issues which reasonable people may disagree on and should hence be respected by the public sphere that is girded round by the law.
Quoting Sophocles' Antigone, Prof. Benson noted that tensions between the so-called divine and imminent or state laws as in a non-theocratic state have always been with us. He stressed the importance of a wide respect by the law for civic associations in addition to but particularly in relation to religion which guides citizens views about wrong and right beyond matters that are regulated by law.


This in-depth leadership development program provides participants with effective management and supervisory skills essential for success in today's challenging public safety environment. Practical examples are presented to public safety organization leaders of all ranks, sworn and civilian, to illustrate successful strategies designed to improve organizational effectiveness and morale. Today's dynamic, ever-changing public safety field makes this course a must for all those who accept the call to lead.

The Best Photos From the 2015 Giro Rosa
By Sean Robinson
Sean Robinson
Annemiek van Vleuten Cornering
The 26th edition of the Giro Rosa began for the first time outside Italy, with the first two days raced in Slovenia. Starting with a 2km evening prologue on the streets of the capital, Ljubljana. The fast, flat course really suited Annemiek van Vleuten's (Bigla) talents and she delivered again, winning the Giro Rosa prologue for a second consecutive year. The all-Dutch top three were separated by less than a second while top general classification contenders finished in a tightly packed group a few seconds behind. Mara Abbott was the only exception—at 25 seconds behind the stage winner, she had some catching up to do.
Barbara Guarischi Soaks in the Win
With little separating the general classification after the prologue, the bonus seconds available at intermediate sprints and the stage finish had many teams hoping to end the opening road stage from Kamnik to Ljubljana in pink. Any attempts at a breakaway weren't going to be allowed to get away. It all came down to a bunch sprint with Velocio-SRAM's Barbara Guarischi claiming an emotional first Giro Rosa stage win of her career. Lucinda Brand's (Rabo Liv) second-place finish was enough to see her take the pink jersey from her Dutch compatriot, Annemiek van Vleuten (Bigla).
Evelyn Stevens Sets the Pace
The race returned to Italy as a heat wave gripped the country. Temperatures soared to the mid-nineties, and battling the heat was as big a challenge as any terrain the race organizers could throw at the peloton. An elite group formed on the demanding climbs through Treviso. Evelyn Stevens set a blistering pace in the finish straight in San Fior to deliver her Boels Dolmans teammate and recently crowned US national champion Megan Guarnier to the stage win and into the race lead.
Boels Dolmans Battles the Heat to Defend Pink
Defending the race lead on the sprint stage from Curtatone to Mantua should have been relatively straightforward, but the weather had other plans as temperatures rose ever higher. A break escaped and at one point established a lead that could have put the eventual stage winner, Lucinda Brand back in pink. But Boels Dolmans set the pace in the chasing peloton to reduce the gap to an acceptable distance, successfully defending Megan Guarnier's leader's jersey for another day.
Annalisa Cucinotta Sprint Finish
There were few opportunities for the sprinters at the Giro Rosa 2015, and after missing out to the breakaway in the previous stage there was no way the sprint teams where going to allow that to be repeated on Stage 4. Annalisa Cucinotta (Alé Cipollini) topped an all-Italian podium ahead of Marta Bastianelli (Aromitalia Vaiano-Fondriest) and Elena Cecchini (Lotto Soudal) in a nervous sprint finish in Pozzo D'Adda where no rider wanted to make the first move. Race leader Megan Guarnier (Boels Dolmans) finished in seventh to secure a third day in pink.
Mayuko Hagiwara Wins
Stage 5 was a demanding stage, with three categorized climbs followed by technical descents across Valtellina from Trevisio to Morbegno. As the overall contenders marked each other's moves, Japanese national champion Mayuko Hagiwara (Wiggle Honda) attacked on the final climb, going on to win solo and become the first Japanese stage winner in the history of the Giro Rosa. Known for her selfless service to her teammates, Hagiwara's stage win was widely celebrated across the peloton. Megan Guarnier won the sprint for second place, extending her race lead to 11 seconds on Anna van der Breggen.
Anna van der Breggen Descends
The penultimate stage of the Giro Rosa 2015 was a challenging 13-mile time trial in Pisano on the hillside of the western shore of Lago Maggiore. A technical descent to shore level followed by a challenging climb back into the hills made it quite unlike most time trial courses in women's cycling. This was Anna van der Breggen's chance to overturn Megan Guarnier's race lead. The recently crowned Dutch national time-trial champion took the opportunity with open arms, winning the stage 1:03 ahead of Guarnier, who came in second place. The time difference gave van der Breggen a commanding 46-second lead going into the final stage.
Defending the Jersey
Anna van der Breggen (Rabo-Liv) had just one day to defend her pink jersey, on the Queen stage of this year's Giro Rosa. The long final climb with a summit finish to San Domenico di Varzo ski resort saw Mara Abbott (Wiggle Honda) ride away from the rest. She went on to win the stage, while van der Breggen built on her overnight lead over Megan Guarnier (Boels Dolmans) by finishing second on the stage, gaining almost a minute over her main rivals, Guarnier and Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio (Bigla). Abbott's solo effort saw her leap up the final standings to second place, with Guarnier completing the podium in third.
Celebrating in Pink
Anna van der Breggen celebrates the first Giro Rosa title of her career, improving on last year's third-place finish when her Rabo-Liv team locked out the podium. It's been an impressive year for the Dutchwoman, with wins at Omloop het Nieuwsblad, La Flèche Wallonne, and Elsy Jacobs to name just a few. As the season enters its second half, the Giro Rosa champion is likely to be a regular visitor to the podium for the rest of the year and beyond.
