Harlem on the Hi-Line
Posted on May 30, 2014 by carrollvanwest
Whenever travelers or residents for that matter talk about Hi-Line towns, Havre, Shelby, Glasgow, Wolf Point always enter the conversation. Some places, inexplicably to my mind, never do: Harlem is a case in point.
A gateway to the Fort Belknap Reservation, Harlem is one of the early Great Northern Railway towns, dating to 1889, and was established to serve as a commercial center on the northern border of the reservation.When the homesteading boom swept through the Hi-Line during the early 20th century, Harlem quickly expanded and most of the historic buildings found there today date between 1910 and 1940.
What struck me powerfully when I visited in 2013, compared to my last visit in 1984, was dual themes of growth and decline. The Aaniiih Nadoka College, established in 1884, had left its initial spartan quarters on the edge of the reservation into new modern-styled buildings, that still reflected the spirit of earlier vernacular styled buildings.
The 30-year growth of the college certainly underscored new opportunities as the flashy facade of the Ft Belknap Casino, facing U.S. Highway 2, showed a new revenue source. Standardized designs for federal housing also indicated the growth of a large neighborhood just south of the U.S. 2 and Montana 66 junction.
The theme of decline, however, marked the historic business district of Harlem. When I visited in 1984, Harlem had over 1000 residents–now that number is close to 800. Classic roadside gas stations, even at prominent corners, had closed.
The Art Deco-ish Brekke Block (1941) only had a few going businesses; the early 20th century commercial block at Central and Main streets had even fewer signs of life. The Grand Theatre no longer showed movies. The imposing classical facade of the old state bank had broken windows and decaying architectural details. These historic buildings retain their potential to impress, and could be heritage assets in multiple ways. They need attention before it is too late.
While life and commerce enlivened the railroad and highway corridor, the downtown had a shuttered, tired look. But pride was there too. The Harlem Centennial Park, established in 1987, featured an memorial to the thirteen airmen who lost their lives when Air Force cargo planes collided north of town in 1992. The dedication and commitment to raise the funds and build such an appropriate monument impresses–and for travelers like me, I had no idea that this terrible air accident took place, and was glad that Harlem understood its obligation to the airmen and to history to record the event, permanently, with the memorial. It was one of several surprises I encountered during my visit to Blaine County in 2013.

The 3rd pic you have on the page is of the old Hotel Cecil. Alfred Cecil was the owner and he is also noted as the founder of Harlem. He was my 3x great grandfather, his children, and grandchildren were all born and raised in Harlem. =)

Alfred Cecil was my 2x great grandfather and not all his grand kids were raised in Harlem. My Great Grandmother, Viola (Gram), daughter of Alfred and one of her daughters Evelyn (my Grandma) lived in Havre for years where I was born and raised. =)

Sorry! I guess I kind of lumped Havre and Harlem together 😉

I spent 11 years in Harlem, moved there when I was in the second grade. We lived across the street from the grade school and down the street was a German Prisoner camp. We use to fight the mosquitoes and go down and listen to them sing. They were still shipping horses out of Harlem, main street was booming. My mother and sister worked in the New England Cafe. On the west side several bars but also a Buttreys, J.C. Penny, a great Coast to Coast store. Men's store called The Hub, it was a booming place at one time.

The beautiful tree-lined walk through the Regenstein Center leads to the Joutras Gallery where Treewhispers awaits. It's simply beautiful—a space singing the stories, art and poetry from hundreds of people around the world honoring their connection to trees. The exhibit opened January 14th and continues through April 8th. Plan a visit and a stroll outside as well—the Garden is incredible in the winter!
Many thanks to the Chicago Botanic Garden—and very special thank you to Dawn Bennett who was instrumental in bringing it to fruition.


The ancient Greeks had two words for time--chronos for ordinary, wristwatch time and kairos for historical moments that had great significance outside of the ordinary. A collection of one-shots inspired by songs.
The collective adventures of my original character, Kent Alexander, an alien freedom fighter, as she joins the Doctor in the Tardis.
A series of short stories that were inspired by the photographs, articles & new DW logo that were about a couple of weeks ago ( late Sept/early October '09 ). I got very depressed and these were the result. I will add them in the order that I wrote them... This was going to be called 'Death Comes As The End'... but something that the lovely thetimelady picked up on in reviews changed my mind. Thank you Gretchen!
The Doctor and Rose try to figure out how to make a life for themselves on Pete's World, but as usual, dangerous adventures happen along the way.

Proposal to Amend the Cosmetic Regulations
Post author By Andrew Lau
No Comments on Proposal to Amend the Cosmetic Regulations
What is a Cosmetic?
Under Section 2 of the Food and Drugs Act, a cosmetic is defined as "any substance or mixture of substances manufactured, sold or represented for use in cleaning, improving or altering the complexion, skin, hair or teeth, and includes deodorants and perfumes.". This is different from a drug or natural health product, even though they are all regulated under the Food and Drug Act.
The classification of a product depends on its function, purpose, and representation for use (such as claims that are made for the product on the product label). Ingredients in the formula may also help determine the classification. For example, in Canada, ingredients like corticosteroids can only be licensed as drugs whereas green tea leaf extract may be licensed as a cosmetic product or natural health product.
What is the proposal on?
Currently, stakeholders can use the word "perfume" in the Cosmetic Notification Form and on cosmetic labels to represent the overall fragrance ingredients that are used to produce or mask a particular odour. Alternatively, they can list each fragrance ingredient individually under the ingredient list. On July 16, 2021, Health Canada opened a consultation and proposed to amend the Cosmetic Regulations to eliminate the use of "perfume" so that the industry must list individual fragrance ingredients.
This purpose of this change is to disclose allergens and give consumers more detailed information, allowing them to make better decisions when purchasing cosmetic products. Other amendments to the regulations include administrative updates and improving cosmetics oversight including terminology clarification for risk management purposes and enhancing cosmetic compliance (e.g. one's responsibility on Health Canada's safety evidence request).
The Importance of Cosmetic Safety
Even though most cosmetic products are generally safe for use, some of them may still cause health problems such as allergic reactions and skin irritation. To use cosmetics safely, you should always read safety information on the label, especially hazard symbols. If there are directions of use present on the label, you should follow carefully to avoid misuse, which may result in rashes, burns, or eye damage.
Cosmetics should be kept out of reach of children, as they may be poisonous if swallowed. If swallowed, you should contact a Poison Control Centre or call 411. If it is a spray product, do not spray near a flame or source of heat, which may cause fires and explosions. Although some cosmetics have preservatives, you should still keep them clean to avoid bacteria growing. You can do so by washing your hands before using makeup, not sharing makeup, not adding water to dilute makeup, and keeping your cosmetics stored in a dry, dark area.
If there are changes in colour, smell, or texture of the product, do not use it. Hypoallergenic cosmetics are less likely to cause allergic reactions, but still could do so. If any allergic reaction occurs, stop use, and consult a healthcare practitioner. For certain products such as hair dyes, you may be asked to do a patch test prior to use to ensure cosmetic safety. You could also report cosmetic incidents by submitting a Consumer Product Incident Report on Health Canada's website.

Summary of Guidelines for Advertising Health Products
Post author By Maron Daniel
No Comments on Summary of Guidelines for Advertising Health Products
Advertising is something almost all people experience and view daily. Yet, it can be challenging to navigate this space as it can be unclear to identify the truthful claims from the misleading claims. Fortunately, in Canada, Health Canada is the regulatory authority for consumer advertising, more specifically, health products.
How does Health Canada regulate marketing?
Health Canada is committed to ensuring that information in a health product advertisement is not false, misleading, or deceptive. Advertising for Non-prescription drugs and Natural Health Products stems from the terms of market authorization (TMA). In the case of non-prescription drugs, it is the labelling standard, product monograph, authorized labelling and category IV monograph. While for Natural Health Products, it is the product license. We will discuss each of the components of a label and ad and the standards around them.
What statements can be made when advertising a health product?
The recommended use, the direction of use, duration of use, side effects and product performance must be consistent with the TMA. At least one claim should be listed on a label. Additionally, the ad and claims should be a consistent representation of the TMA. As there are many types of products, health products must be accurately represented as per it's TMA, such as a non-prescription drug or a natural health product. For products making claims on organic or natural, the following must be satisfied:
Advertisers should possess evidence of certification, i.e. a copy of the Organic Certificate, issued by a recognized certification body.
Products that are certified organic, i.e. where the organic content is greater than or equal to 95%, may be advertised as "organic." The trademark of the recognized certification body may be included in advertising.
Natural:
A synthetically derived ingredient should not be represented as "natural" or "natural source(d)."
Claims that a product is "natural" or "natural source(d)" are permissible only if the claim is true for all ingredients (both medicinal and non-medicinal).
Claims that one or several ingredients in a multi-ingredient product are "natural" or "natural source(d)" are permissible, as long as it is clear to which ingredient(s) the claim applies.
On the topic of product guarantees, it is inherently clear that this is not permitted as it suggests that a product is suitable for all individuals. While much of this information is a helpful tool in making the right decisions for claims and advertising, the question remains:
Who preclears ads and ad campaigns?
Well, advertising material for non-prescription drugs and natural health products directed to consumers is reviewed and precleared by independent agencies that have publicly self-attested to meeting Health Canada's recommended attestation criteria.
With anything, there are always some outliers who chose to heed some of the regulatory guidelines around advertising. Should individuals find instances of suspected misleading practices, there is an online tool to submit complaints for Health Canada to review. The complaints are prioritized and acted on based on the risk that they pose.
As you take steps to understand this complex marketing space, there may be many things that remain unclear. Advertising practices are plenty and frequently changing, and having the quality level expertise can help ensure you are up to date on the most current regulatory information.

Public Consultation on Medical Devices Unique Device Identifier Initiative
Post author By Kalpna Mistry
No Comments on Public Consultation on Medical Devices Unique Device Identifier Initiative
On June 28, 2021, Health Canada opened a public consultation on a Unique Device Identification (UDI) system for medical devices in Canada. This is Health Canada's first consultation on the UDI system for medical devices.
What is a Unique Device Identifier (UDI)?
A Unique Device Identifier (UDI) is a series of numeric or alphanumeric characters assigned to a specific medical device on the market and is created through globally accepted standards. A UDI code on a medical device allows tracing and tracking of the medical device through the healthcare system, from its entrance into the market through to its use in a patient.
What is the purpose of the consultation?
The purpose of the public consultation is to explore the feasibility of introducing a UDI system in Canada, including options for the development of a UDI database by leveraging internal existing infrastructure. Health Canada proposes building on the work and experience of the International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF), as well as the United States Food and Drug Administration's implementation to inform the principles and design of a UDI System for Canada. The focus of the public consultation is to seek feedback on:
Introducing a Unique Device Identification (UDI) system for medical devices in Canada
Who should be responsible for establishing and maintaining the Canadian UDI database
The potential scope of regulatory and legislative amendments required to establish a UDI System in Canada
What is IMDRF and what do they do?
IMDRF stands for International Medical Device Regulators Forum. The International Medical Device Regulators Forum is a voluntary group of medical device regulators from around the world who work to support convergence in the area of medical device regulations. The International Medical Device Regulators Forum published the original guidance on a global Unique Device Identification System for Medical Devices in December of 2013. The guidance provides a high-level framework for how a globally harmonized device identification system should work.
According to the guidance document on UDI developed by the International Medical Device Regulators Forum, a UDI system must have three interrelated components:
UDIs must be based on global standards
UDIs must be applied to the label of a medical device and its associated packaging
Information about the medical device must be submitted to a UDI database for the purpose of data sharing amongst regulators and other healthcare stakeholders
What will the feedback from this consultation be used for?
The feedback gathered through this public consultation will be used to inform the assessment of options for the potential implementation of UDI in Canada and the next steps. Should Health Canada choose to pursue a UDI system, there will be further consultation with stakeholders. Health Canada will share the results of this consultation in a timely manner on the Health Canada website.
What are the benefits of implementing a UDI system?
Implementing a UDI system in Canada will bring several benefits to industry, government, consumers, healthcare providers, and the healthcare system, such as:
More accurate reporting
Reduced medical errors
Collection of "real-world data"
Patients can track their own devices
Effective management of medical device recalls
Addressing counterfeiting and diversion of medical devices
Who should participate in the consultation?
Health Canada is seeking feedback from industry professionals, provinces and territories, health care organizations, and the general public.
Interested parties can participate in the public consultation. The consultation will close on September 30, 2021.
Quality Smart Solutions offers many avenues of support including full support for obtaining any Medical Device License. Our team is equipped with professionals who have extensive experience in the Canna, Pharmaceutical, Natural Health Product, Food and Medical Device industries.

CFIA & Health Canada Policy on Food Labelling
Post author By Mitchell Kiernan
No Comments on CFIA & Health Canada Policy on Food Labelling
Health Canada and the CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency) are teaming up to plan advancements and improvements for the timing of food labelling changes in Canada. This is in accordance with the most recent 2019 Agri-food and aquaculture sector regulatory review roadmap. Changes of this nature may be required based on aligning with Canadian and International standards, for scientific improvements or to keep Canadians safe and healthy.
The goal is to enhance coordination between the departments and make the food labelling change process more predictable. Implementing these changes would reduce the cost needed to make multiple changes required by each governing body at separate intervals. The alignment of requirements will make things more efficient and cost-effective for the industry to implement.
The essential components of this project are:
Establishing a process for interdepartmental food labelling changes
Establishing predictable (2-year) compliance dates
Based on consultation from February to April 2021, comments were received from 32 parties. The summary is available for the public at the official website of Health Canada.
The USA currently uses a 2-year (1-3 year) transition period for these types of changes. The US FDA and USDA align and publish new rules that culminate in a two-year compliance window. This timeline allows the industry to make changes and use up current inventory. Currently, the USA is the only country with a published labelling cycle for foods.
Regulatory amendments that do not initiate a label change would be considered out of scope for this program. Business decisions to update labels vs. government-required updates would be the deciding factor here.
Compliance Dates
The compliance date would be the date of registration. Two-year intervals for label changes will start in January 2026. This will align with US rules. Product owners are responsible for ensuring their food products meet regulatory requirements including labelling. Health Canada and the CFIA will continue using their risk-based approach to product oversight.
Transition Period
Transition periods will range from 1-3 years and will be individually tailored based on the extent of the change required with any new regulatory requirement. This piece will be built into the consultation period of any new/proposed regulation that requires food labelling changes.
For predictability purposes, the minimum transition time will be 2 years, unless there is a safety concern. Any complicated or multi-level changes brought on by regulatory requirements/updates may have multiple deadlines, these will be communicated within the proposal/consultation for each regulatory revision.
Areas or items that are detrimental to human risk will be assigned a different timeline. As these label updates are of greater concern shorter update timelines would likely be assigned to allow shift revisions and prevent injury/harm.
Regulatory Development
Updates to new policies and guidance documents will follow this new clear approach. This establishes an open path for aligned label changes at predictable intervals. Scope, complexity, and cost are all factored into new consultations. Long intervals limit flexibility for factors like scope and complexity.
Further Assistance
For any questions regarding this policy, any food labelling needs or help with product registration/classification that you may have, please reach out to our team of specialists!

Important Notice Regarding the Transition of COVID-19 Site Licenses
Post author By Jessica Koves
No Comments on Important Notice Regarding the Transition of COVID-19 Site Licenses
In March 2020, Health Canada introduced interim measures to expedite the issuance of site licences for alcohol-based hand sanitizers, to address the shortage of these products due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are considered natural health products (NHP) and all Canadian companies engaged in manufacturing, packaging, labelling, or importing a natural health product for sale, require a natural health product site licence.
However, as the demand for alcohol-based hand sanitizers stabilizes, the interim order is approaching an end. The Natural and Non-Prescription Health Products Directorate (NNHPD) of Health Canada has set forth that temporary COVID-19 site licences (COVID-19 SL) for manufacturing, packaging, labelling and/or importing alcohol-based hand sanitizers will expire on September 30, 2021. Health Canada issued a bulletin to all temporary COVID-19 SL holders that gave a 60-day notice period in advance for the end of interim measures.
Therefore, COVID-19 SL holders are presented with two options prior to licence expiry:
Stop manufacturing, importing, packaging, labelling, or distributing alcohol-based hand sanitizers.
Apply for a valid SL to continue producing hand sanitizer until you receive a decision on your application.
If the SL holder would like to continue activities beyond September 30, 2021, then a complete site licence application (SLA) must be submitted, as per Section 28 of the NHPR, by September 30, 2021, at 11:59 pm PST. The applicant will be required to complete the web SLA form and must select the "COVID-19 SL Transition" option. The applicant will also be required to demonstrate compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) (i.e. Quality Assurance Report (QAR), and applicable testing, release, and batch records).
Once the SLA form is completed and GMP evidence documents are collected, the applicant then must retrieve the ePost Connect conversation thread. If the applicant does not have a COVID Applications conversation, Health Canada has recommended to contact the following e-mail address: hc.nnhpd-dpsnso.sc@canada.ca with the subject line "COVID transition – No applications conversation". It is worth noting that any applications submitted through other means will not be accepted.
If Health Canada deems that the application requires more information to be sent, then an Information Request Notice (IRN) may be sent. The IRN will state a timeline and define the additional information required. Failure to respond adequately or on time will result in an application refusal.
The service standards normally in place for new applications will not apply to COVID-19 SL transition applications. Therefore, temporary COVID-19 SL holders will be allowed to continue activities under the temporary licence, until a decision is issued. The NNHPD is striving to issue an acknowledgement within 30 days of receiving the application. Please be advised, if you receive a site licence, you will be required to renew it within one year.
Alternatively, if you wish to discontinue activities under the COVID-19 SL licence, Health Canada has requested that you send an email to the following e-mail address; hc.nnhpd-dpsnso.sc@canada.ca ahead of the September 30, 2021, end date. The email will need to include a cover letter, reference your COVID-19 SL number and the discontinuation date.
It is important to understand that if you choose to discontinue activities, you may liquidate the remaining stock that was imported or manufactured while the interim COVID-19 SL was valid. You will be asked to confirm that you have ceased licensable activities. Also, you must retain samples of your products and records to enable a recall should the need arise.
In the event you have already stopped or never carried out activities under your interim COVID-19 site licence, you can notify the NNHPD that you wish to discontinue your license ahead of the September 30 deadline, following the same directions as above.
If you take no action, the activities listed on your interim COVID-19 SL will no longer be allowed after September 30, 2021.

MEXICO CITY, Sep 25 2020 (IPS)
The economic recovery after the covid-19 pandemic, renewable energy, the gas situation, regulations and investment; mobility and transport, as well as new technologies and the progress of the Paris Agreement will be discussed at the Madrid Energy Conference from 28 September to 2 October.
Jeremy Martin, vice-president of the non-governmental Institute of the Americas (IoA), told IPS from its headquarters in the U.S. coastal town of La Jolla, California, that the second Madrid Energy Conference had to adjust its format to a virtual one, as all the meetings have done since March.
"But the goals and objectives are the same: to address the way energy is generated, distributed and consumed, as well as the investment needed in Latin America to drive the energy transition and its link to Europe," explained the vice-president of the Institute organizing the conference.
The dialogue, the first edition of which was held in the Spanish capital in 2019, will bring together ministers and deputy ministers from various Latin American and Caribbean countries, as well as 20 company presidents and more than 400 delegates from international bodies, such as the intergovernmental International Energy Agency and the Latin American Energy Organization, and experts from both continents.
"Without a doubt, the pandemic and the crisis it has triggered have led to growing attention and calls to redouble efforts towards an energy transition that will help the world reduce CO2 emissions"
Jeremy Martin
The first day of discussions will focus on the relevance of the Paris Agreement, signed in 2015; the climate crisis in the context of the pandemic; and the situation of renewable energy in Latin America.
The second day will focus on financing the post-Covid recovery and the energy transition towards lower carbon models and mergers and acquisitions in the energy sector.
The third day will focus on energy storage in batteries and electricity transmission networks; mobility, transport and energy transition and intelligent transmission networks.
In the fourth group of sessions, speakers will discuss gas, the perspective of oil corporations and the role and impact of regulations on hydrocarbon companies.
The closing of the virtual conference will deal with energy digitization and artificial intelligence, carbon capture and storage (CCS), the gas generated by human activities responsible for global warming, and methane, whose polluting power is greater than that of CO, and the situation of hydrogen, seen as an alternative to fossil fuels, in Latin America and Europe.
As a result of the coronavirus pandemic which appeared in China at the end of 2019 and has spread rapidly throughout the world, nations have suffered economic recession, a fall in energy consumption and tourism, as well as thousands of deaths and job losses.
In response, countries have implemented packages of social and economic measures with different degrees of depth.
For Leonardo Beltrán, a Mexican non-associated researcher at the Institute of the Americas and a participant in the forum, the conference attracts the most relevant actors to consolidate the energy dialogue.
"There are opinion leaders, company executives who develop business and technology, and officials. The forum allows for the exchange of ideas, and a new vision can be developed, thus consolidating energy integration for the region," he told IPS in Mexico City.
Domestic gas and its role in the energy transition will be one of the topics to be debated at the Madrid Energy Conference, which will virtually bring together senior representatives of governments, intergovernmental organizations, business and civil society organizations.

It will also allow us to analyze the progress of the Paris Agreement on climate change, signed in 2015, which for Beltran is crucial "now more than ever", because of the consequences of the pandemic, such as the sharp slowdown in the global economy, the reduction in energy consumption, the contraction in tourism and the disruption of trade.
"Forced by the pandemic, we are seeing the effects of highly polluting industries, which have a large carbon footprint, and so the magnifying glass is being put on these sectors. The source of these emissions is fossil combustion," he said.
The also former Undersecretary of Energy recalled that the Paris Agreement is linked to the efforts that its participating governments have to make and whose progress will be the subject of dialogue during the Conference. "Everyone has committed to reducing their footprint with short, medium and long term goals," he said.
Beltrán considered that in global terms, Latin America can exhibit "ample room for maneuver" at the Conference due to its low carbon footprint and a clean energy matrix at increasing levels.
In addition, the European Union's (EU) "Next Generation EU" plan, announced in June and worth $830 billion, can serve as a model for Latin America, with more than a third going to projects to increase energy efficiency, reduce dependence on fossil fuels and preserve nature. Financing will be subject to environmental requirements.
Martin agreed with the existence of the European alternatives from which the Latin American region can take upon.
"Again this year we will look at developments in Europe with a view to how they can contribute to policy and investment frameworks in Latin America", he said.
"Without a doubt, the pandemic and the crisis it has triggered have led to growing attention and calls to redouble efforts towards an energy transition that will help the world reduce CO2 emissions," Martin added.
The specialist stressed that in many Latin American countries the focus has been on how to manage hydrocarbons, with the lens on the energy transition.
European energy companies are investing heavily in the region, and the EU has set up lines of cooperation to help in the face of the pandemic.
Mechthild Wörsdörfer, director of Sustainability, Technology and Outlooks at the International Energy Agency (IEA) and a speaker at the conference, told IPS that "having a set of pre-existing policy objectives, programmes and delivery channels for financial services can help countries implement recovery measures more quickly."
The official from the energy coordinating body of the major industrial countries said from Paris, the headquarters of the IEA, that they can also help ensure that these measures "are consistent with national objectives for medium- and long-term sustainability."
Wörsdörfer also considered that the recovery plans for the economic crisis caused by the covid can be linked to the Paris Agreement through the measures that countries adopt to comply with the treaty, "to help select recovery measures that also allow climate and other sustainability objectives to be met."
All of this will be discussed in this virtual edition of the second Madrid Energy Conference, which will analyze the challenges that the pandemic and post-pandemic have placed on a sector that was already subject to the special challenges of a historic transition in its sources, matrix and consumption.

I remember doing my training with Elmhurst back in 2007- 5 of us sat around measuring up and inputting the same example building… and all getting different results based on our experience/knowledge/assumptions.
I also do a lot of consultancy work with landlords on hitting targets (both Domestic and Non Domestic) plus having been on a few CPDs picked up a few tips from the trainers highlighting all the opportunities in SBEM which are perfectly acceptable under the Methodology and Code of Conduct.
I also find a lot of others highlighting ridiculously expensive scenarios to achieve an E with little or no financial reward/return for doing so. I'm a big fan of renewable energy which I believe is one of the tickets for a lot of clients to achieve the E ratings while investing in the industry and their stock.
I think I would aim your magic EPCs as a "Hate the Game not the Player" style scenario, where the system (methodology combined with accreditation/trading standards) is the problem- not the person number crunching? Also I bet I can guess which accreditation scheme that other assessor was trained under.
Exactly the same thing happened to me. An 80s warehouse with toilets. The landlord had put a new roof on but had not replaced the lights in the warehouse, leaving that to the incoming tenant.
As the Conventions state, I had to default to tungsten, which resulted in a low G. I had a bit of a heated exchange with the landlord but said that unless he put new lights in there was nothing I could do except redo the EPC when new lighting was fitted.
Lo and behold, a week later another EPC appeared on the register with a D rating with the recommendation that the T8 lights were replaced with T5 conversions. I went back to the building to look through the windows and, yes, you guessed it, still no lights.


The Greater Shelburne Falls Area Business Association was founded in the early 1980's with its original name of Shelburne Falls Businessmen's Association. Recognizing a need for such an organization, a handful of Bridge Street merchants got together to promote the Village of Shelburne Falls. They were the founders of events that occurred on Bridge Street throughout the year. The most remembered is Moonlight Magic, then called Moonlight Madness. This event continues to be a favorite as it ushers in the Christmas shopping season, drawing visitors from throughout Western Massachusetts.
Over time the Association attracted additional merchants as well as artists and crafts people who had businesses in the Village. About 1990 the name was changed to the Shelburne Falls Area Business Association. Noting its location in the heart of the Mohawk Trail Region, its focus widened beyond the Village to include the Mohawk Trail and several abutting towns.
The organization continued to grow and attracted area business people from outside the retail venue. Now, with the inclusion of 10 towns from the surrounding area and nearly 250 members, the Association has added the word "Greater" to its name. The Board of Directors and committee members are dedicated volunteers lending their time and talents to attract tourists to the region and ensure that area towns and businesses will thrive.

Београдски сајам је друштво са ограниченом одговорношћу за организовање сајамских изложби. Основано је 1957. године.

Историја Београдског сајма

Претеча предузећа Београдски сајам било је Друштво за приређивање сајма, формирано 1923. (1933) године. У то време и Љубљана и Загреб имали су свој Сајам, док га Београд, као престоница Краљевине, није имао. Постојао је проблем адекватне локације, али повезивањем Земуна са Београдом и изградњом Моста краља Александра створени су предуслови да се и тај проблем реши. Године 1937. на левој обали Саве, на простору данас поѕнатом као Старо сајмиште, изграђен је сајамски комплекс са 26 павиљона различите намене и власништва, а излагачима је на располагање стављено 17.000 квадратих метара простора под кровом и још 20.000 на отвореној површини. Први Београдски сајм отворен је 11. септембра 1937. године. Свечано га је отворио Милан Стојановић, тадашњи председник Друштва за приређивање сајма.

Сајам је започео своје активности организовањем првог Јесењег сајма, а за њим су уследили Изложба живинарства у децембру 1937, Пролећни сајам у марту 1938. и први Београдски сајам аутомобила, најстарија сајамска манифестација Београдског сајма која се и данас одржава, одржан од 5. до 15. марта исте године. На првој сајамској манифестацији учествовала су 883 излагача, међу којима чак 390 из иностранства, а сајам је посетило преко 300.000 људи (више него што је Београд тада имао становника). Други Јесењи сајам 1938. године имао је 910 излагача, а фирма Филипс је на Сајму поставила телевизијску емисиону станицу. Програме те станице су посетиоци сајма могли да прате на пријемницима у павиљонима. На Сајму је било приређено још 13 привредних специјализованих изложби, 4 радио изложбе, Земаљска ловачка изложба, Земаљска занатска изложба, Изложба дечије заштите, Изложба слатководног рибарства, Изложба планинарства, Међународна изложба ваздухопловства "Наша крила", 2 изложбе заштите од напада из ваздуха...

Сем изложбених Сајам је имао и друге намене. На сајму су организоване културне манифестације. Између осталих на Сајму је одржан Први југословенски концертни фестивал, априла 1938. и Други фестивал југословенских народних игара и мелодија 1939. године, а са приближавањем рата Савез Сокола је на Сајму организовао предвојничку обуку. Било је планирано да се до јесени 1941. подигну забавни парк и хиподром за 50.000 гледалаца.

Други светски рат прекинуо је активности Београдског сајма, а сајамски комплекс претворен је у нацистички концентрациони логор, "Јеврејски логор Земун", у коме је извршен велики погром Јевреја, одн. каснији Прихватни логор за различите таоце.

Обнова Сајма после Другог светског рата
Двадесет година после првог, након послератне обнове и изградње, Београдски сајам је отворен по други пут. Нови сајамски комплекс саграђен је на десној обали Саве, где се и данас налази. Прва манифестација био је Сајам технике, отворен 23. августа 1957. Ову прву послератну сајамску манифестацију отворио је Франц Лескошек, члан Савезног извршног већа. Први послератни Београдски сајам технике посетило је 1.115.000 посетилаца. Годину дана касније, на прву послератну годишњицу Сајма технике и техничких достигнућа, односно годишњицу самог Београдског сајма, као и на 20-одишњицу првог Филипсовог ТВ емитовања, из студија смештеног на Сајму ТВ Београд емитовао је своју прву емисију.

Епидемија корона вируса
Услед пандемије изазване корона вирусом 2020. године, у складу с одлуком о забрани одржавања јавних скупова у затвореном простору, 19.3.2020. Београдски сајам је по први пут у историји, не рачунајући Други светски рат, био приморан да затвори своја врата за посетиоце. Сви сајмови су отказани до даљњег, осим Сајма хортикултуре који је једини одржан у јуну 2021.

Београдски сајам данас
Данас је Београдски сајам организатор бројних државних, регионалних и међународних манифестација, али других догађаја са великим бројем учесника. Неке од њих имају традицију одржавања дугу и по неколико деценија, а најстарија манифестација која се одржала у континуитету је Београдски сајам аутомобила, који се организује од 1938. године.

Током 2022. у јавност је уведена идеје да се хале Београдског сајма сруше у корист ширење стамбено-пословног пројекта Београд на води, док би се нове, веће хале сајма изградиле у општини Сурчин.

Календар сајамских манифестација

Остале манифестације
Осим сајамских манифестација Београдски сајам пружа услуге и у организацији других манифестација, међу којима су:
 У организацији Кинолошког савеза Републике Србије на Београдском сајму се два пута годишње одржава Међународна изложба паса свих раса – ЦАЦИБ Београд
 Интернационални фестивал Аргентинског танга – "Београдски Танго сусрет"
 Фестивала науке
 Различити музички концерти
 Пријемни испити за факултете и други слични испити

Намене у кризним ситуацијама
Током пандемије вируса корона 2020. године хале Београдског сајма адаптиране су за смештај пацијената са блажим симптомима заразе. Током 2021. године, хала 3 и хала 11 Београдског сајма су постале главни пунктови за вакцинацију.

12 Fascinating & (Slightly!) Quirky Facts We Bet You Didn't Know About Western Australia
If this won't invoke wanderlust in you, we don't know what will.
Engracia AngNov 27th, 2019
We'll be honest — Western Australia (WA), or even just the capital of Perth, isn't exactly the first port of call for most travellers itching to visit Australia. Why visit Western Australia when you have other fun cities to check out, like bustling Sydney and sunny Gold Coast, right? Well, that's where you're wrong.
With a bit of digging, you'll find that Western Australia is a treasure trove of hidden gems. Don't believe us? Read on to discover our favourite facts about Perth and Western Australia — some of which might have you dropping your jaw!

1. Surprise, surprise: it boasts of the largest number of purebred camels in the world
Did you know that you can actually go for camel rides in Western Australia? In fact, the state exports camels to the Middle East. Settlers hailing from the Canary Islands first introduced camels to the country back in the 1840s. Since they have no natural predators, the populations of camels have skyrocketed.
2. Perth is only 5 hours away from Singapore!
You read that right, Perth is just a 5-hour direct flight from Singapore, making it an ideal long weekend holiday destination. In fact, the distance between Perth and Singapore is almost equal to that between Perth and its own national capital (4h35min)!

There is an insatiable array of things to sink your teeth into in Perth. Do not be fooled by its skyscrapers; it might be a major metropolis, but the city has the perfect balance of urbanity and nature. It's home to Kings Park, one of the world's biggest urban parks (bigger than New York City's Central Park, in fact), located right in the heart of Perth. And if you love your vino, the breathtaking vineyards of Swan Valley await you.
3. There's an entire community dedicated to garden gnomes
Image credit: Gnomesville
Yes, you read that right. In the south of Western Australia, there's a place called Gnomesville, located just off Ferguson Valley (1.5 hours away from Perth). Gnomesville is home to over 5,000 gnomes, and the number continues to grow even today.
Want to partake in the mischief? You too can add your own gnome to the community! Just make sure that your garden gnome ornament has a sign stating where it's from (ain't no better time to rep your home country!) and any other relevant information.
4. It's the only place where you can find the happiest animal on Earth (in the wild)
That's right, we're talking about the quokka! The smiley little marsupial is endemic to only Western Australia, and you can mostly find them on Rottnest Island. On the island west of Fremantle, quokkas have no natural predators, which is frankly a relief — we can't bear the thought of anyone (or anything) hurting these cheery critters! It's a popular day trip for many people visiting Perth, so don't forget to pay these quokkas a visit when you're in Western Australia.
5. You can see Perth from space!
Image credit: Tourism Western Australia
More accurately, you can see the city lights of Perth from space. Back in 1962, astronaut John Glenn said that he was able to spot Perth from space, thanks to the city's street lighting. Because of this, Perth is also known as the "city of lights". Take that, Great Wall of China!

6. The Great Emu War once took place in Western Australia (spoiler alert: the emus won)
Image credit: Matthew Meredith
Did you know that Australian government once tried to wage war on emus? Even better, did you know that the emus won the war? The Great Emu War came about because the Australian government had to find employment and housing for the returning veterans after the First World War. The solution was to offer money and a piece of land in Western Australia.
The only catch? The place was rife with hordes of emus — the giant birds took a fancy to devouring crops. This led to a "war" waged by the veterans-turned-farmers on the emus, of which the latter emerged victorious. Go figure.
7. Perth is the most isolated city in the world
To put it into perspective, the closest city, Adelaide, is a whole 2,200 kilometres away. It's also closer to Jakarta than it is to the capital of Australia, Canberra. Wild, right? Western Australia boasts over 12,500 kilometres of coastline, which means you won't be fighting for a spot on the beach any time soon. It's certainly a welcome change from the overcrowded beaches of touristy, tropical destinations like Bali.
8. The Busselton Jetty is the longest wooden jetty in the Southern Hemisphere
Image credit: Busselton Jetty Facebook page
At over 1,800m long, the jetty lets you walk almost two kilometres into beautiful waters of Geographe Bay! This journey should take you roughly 25 minutes each way. And it's certainly worth the walk: the fresh ocean air makes for an enjoyable stroll and you'll even stumble upon local fishermen fishing along the way.
Make a date at the jetty's fascinating Underwater Observatory after, where you'll descend 8 metres below sea level to discover the bay's marine life and tropical corals. And if you're feeling peckish, there are heaps of cafes and family-friendly restaurants for your picking. Fun fact: the jetty once even had a waterslide! Unfortunately, it has since closed down in 2011.
9. It's home to the world's largest rock
Image credit: Graeme Churchard
Move over, Uluru — the largest rock formation in Australia (and the world, actually) resides in Western Australia. Named Mount Augustus, it's twice the size of its more famous cousin, Uluru. The local Wajarri people call Mount Augustus "Burringurrah". The giant rock is what's known as a monocline, which means it has step-like folds. So, if size matters to you, pay Mount Augustus a visit ASAP.
10. You can marvel at stunning naturally pink lakes up close!
No need for fancy filters here — Western Australia is home to a handful of lakes that are naturally pink. The stunning Hutt Lagoon, nestled in between Port Gregory and Kalbarri is arguably one of Western Australia's world-famous landmarks.
This bright bubblegum pink hued lake sometimes even transitions into a shade of lilac and, on occasions, a vivid red. Following the Indian Ocean Drive from Perth, you can self-drive and reach Hutt Lagoon easily under six hours. If you're arriving from Kalbarri, you'll even catch your first sight of the lagoon within just half an hour!
Image credit: Australia's Coral Coast Instagram page
There are a handful of spots along the drive you can stop at and marvel at the extraordinary view. The postcard-perfect village of Port Gregory, for one, is a favourite among many. Grab a quick bite here and spend the night at one of its many farmstays and cottages. (There's even a caravan park!) And for those lucky enough to visit during summer, witness the entire scenic countryside become blanketed with beautiful wildflowers.
#TripZillaTip: The best time to visit Hutt Lagoon? Visit during mid-morning or right before sunset and watch the magnificent colours transform right before your eyes.
11. Perth has the highest number of self-made millionaires per capita
mage credit: Goldfields Tourism Network
Besides that, Western Australia also has the following: the country's largest gold mine, Australia's oldest operating gold bullion mint, the world's largest producer of pearls, and the world's largest diamond producers by volume. Who knows, maybe you'll strike it rich after visiting Western Australia!
12. There's a separate principality 6 hours from Perth
Image credit: Chris Fithall
Ever just throw your hands up in frustration and decide to set up your own kingdom? No? Well, that's what Leonard Casley did. Back in 1969, the Casley family owned 9,900 hectares of wheat ready to harvest. Unfortunately for them, the government issued quotas allowing only 99 acres of wheat to be sold. This, of course, would have led to severe financial losses for the family.
Image credit: Jerry Woody
Fed up with the government, the Casleys decided to declare their independence from the Commonwealth of Australia and set up their own sovereign state. And thus, the Hutt River Province became a Principality. The Principality even has its own royalty, passports, stamps and currency!
With this list of 12 fascinating facts about Western Australia, have we piqued your interest yet? There are lots more nuggets out there, but we won't spoil you any further. Head over to Western Australia to uncover them for yourself!

Paul helped us understand our raw material and finished goods inventories in a highly complex global supply chain. Paul's clear, concise and analytical approach, with stakeholder engagement throughout, helped us reduce inventories while not compromising customer service, and ensuring we achieved maximum value from the review.
Paul Trudgian Ltd have recently been working with us on a project to establish our warehouse capacity and transport effectiveness in order to further enhance our Customer service. Paul and his team have worked with us providing a clear picture of the needs and requirements for the business despite our complex product and delivery solution. I would have no hesitation recommending Paul Trudgian's services.
Paul is an exceptionally knowledgeable logistics specialist and a great guy to work with. Paul has provided us with invaluable advice.
Paul has provided us with unparalleled support and continues to guide us through our logistical challenges. I highly recommend his consultancy services.
Commercially savvy, thoughtful, diligent and pragmatic are the phrases that come to mind when I think about Paul. I've had the pleasure of working with Paul on our Facility Location Assessment. Above all, I've been impressed with Paul's ability to translate and adapt the theory to the way our business actually has to work day-to-day and his willingness to take this into account in his recommendations. This approach was why we chose to work with Paul.
Paul is an asset to any business looking at its supply chain and logistics operations and, without hesitation, comes with my highest recommendation.
We recognised that the capability of our supply chain was a real differentiator in our market, and Paul Trudgian has really helped take our supply chain to the next level. Paul recommended some key developments in route optimisation, network configuration, warehouse processes and team development. Everything presented was clear, concise and well supported by thorough assessment.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Paul on a logistics tender. Paul made this process extremely straightforward and acted without any bias to any provider. Paul assisted with every step of the process and controlled the day to day element to the timelines in his project plan. This ensured that I could do my day job whilst also tackling this huge project. Paul's professionalism shines through and so does his desire to ensure a successful outcome.
We used Paul to tender our transport operation and he not only met expectation he exceeded it. His approach was professional, neutral , well balanced and structured and we went through a four stage process in a very balanced and methodical way.
Paul's experience of the industry, knowledge of logistic providers and his overall understanding of the current market place made a potentially very complex process look and feel very easy.
A good listener, pragmatic and analytical I would recommend him to any business involved in outsourcing any aspect of their logistics and supply chain.
I engaged Paul Trudgian for a very specific task asking him to provide a panel of the best 3PLs located in Midlands. He demonstrated an excellent knowledge of the UK logistics market, with the contacts required to drive the right list of 3PLs in relation to the specific needs. Paul also has good experience in driving a tender for logistic services and I really appreciated working with him.
Paul's professionalism and ability are exemplary, especially on inventory management. I don't hesitate to recommend his supply chain consultancy.

Sarah Beller
FOUNDER & Coach
I am a coach, facilitator, musician, and entrepreneur who loves to inspire and empower people to create a more just world.
Over the past decade, I have devoted my career to building movements that take bold, strategic, and passionate action in the face of some of the most pressing issues of our time, including the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the global refugee crisis. I've seen these movements harness remarkable power when they're deeply rooted in who we are — our stories, identities, values, and convictions.
In other words, when we are being our most authentic selves, we make the most substantial impact.
Seeking to do just that, at each intersection in my professional journey I've asked myself a few questions: What does the world need right now? What will I learn a lot from and really enjoy doing? And how can I make the most impact?
These questions have led me to amazing places, like:
convening 3,000 people at a pro-diplomacy conference addressed by then-Vice President Joe Biden
organizing hundreds of millennials to rally for refugees and to protest the travel ban by publicly telling their family stories of coming to America
performing at the Women's March with SongRise, the women's social justice a cappella group I co-founded in 2009, which was recently recognized in the Washington City Paper's Best of DC list
Now these questions have led me to launch Realize Change.
What does the world need right now? Empowered, creative, badass women pursuing their visions for a more just world, with fierce and full hearts.
What will I learn a lot from and really enjoy doing? Opening up space for you to connect with your sense of purpose and make your vision a reality.
And how can I make the most impact? By helping you make your greatest impact.
Born in Philadelphia, PA, and raised in New Haven, CT, I hold a bachelors degree in Social Anthropology from Harvard University and a masters degree in International Peace and Conflict Resolution from American University.
A 2017 recipient of Avodah's Partners in Justice Award, I am trained in dialogue facilitation, community organizing, adult education, and management. I am currently working toward coach certification through Presence-Based Coaching and the International Coach Federation.
When I'm not obsessing over how to pursue a more just world, I enjoy biking, writing original songs, walking around in nature, dancing with my kiddo after dinner, and taking time for quiet and creativity.

Translation:Have you seen my cell phone?
What about the placement of 了 (le)?
Basically when you see 了 at the end of the phrase it means CHANGE OF STATE. In the current phrase I think it means if you have seen my cell phone now that I am looking for it and not in general some other undefined time.
If the sentence was 你看见了我的手机吗? I think it would be a case of ACTION COMPLETION and it would mean something like did you see my mobile phone (some time in the undefined past)? In which case we could answer something like "Yeah, you showed it to me last month when you first bought it" but this is not what the person who lost their cell phone is asking.
Wow, that's some interesting reading material in that link. Tnx!
Why is 看见 used here and not just 见? Is there a difference?
"Have you seen my mobile?" should be accepted. We use it frequently in the UK.
Why is "了" placed after the object noun here and not following the verb "看见" in this instance?
Is 了 necessary here? What different meaning is conveyed if it is left out?
To me, to say the sentence without "le" would mean the translation above. But with "le" around, I would think the person is asking: have you seen my cellphone already?
I didnt have formal training in Chinese though.
It's important because it signifies past tense. Otherwise, it would be "Do you see my phone?".
How should I say: "Do you see my phone?" or "Can you see my phone?"
Am I the only one who thinks that the audio on this one sounds off?


In basic terms, Payroll can be described as a list of a company's employees and their pay; but in actuality, it is so much more than that. It can include salaries, wages, deductions, bonuses, and more. Payroll processing includes the employer paying their employees for the work that they have done. Without managing a company payroll, businesses would not know who to pay, how much they should be paid, and the amount owed to the government in taxes.
Although it can be explained in simple terms; in practice, payroll is not as simple as "the money a company pays employees for doing their jobs over a certain period of time". It is important that payroll is managed in a timely, accurate manner by competent and trustworthy individuals. One important aspect of payroll processing is to ensure that all the employees are paid correctly and that the government receives the proper amount of tax revenue.
Most employees receive a paycheck every so often; weekly, bi-monthly, monthly, etc. It is also an option for their money to be automatically deposited into their bank account, this is known as direct deposit. Many employees opt for direct deposit, which makes the payrolling process easier for the employer or payroll company preparing company payroll.
When you are hired for a job, you must fill out a W-4 form. This is the form that the government will base their income tax requirements from. Your marital status, number of dependants, and other deductions can reduce the amount you owe. At the same time, as with all tax forms, it is important to be truthful on the W-4 form.
The government takes out a number of taxes from virtually every employee in the country. These taxes include Medicare, Social Security, Federal Income Tax, State Income Tax, and more. In general, an employer is required to remove these payroll taxes from their employees' checks, a process also known as "withholding". The employer must then distribute these funds to the correct government agencies. The employer is also responsible for paying their share of payroll taxes, or FICA taxes.
How Does a Company Do Payroll?
For many companies payroll can be a hassle and, because of the complexity involved, might not always be done correctly. In these situations, many businesses use Payroll Outsourcing, which is where professional payroll companies such as The Payroll Specialists manage all or part of the business' payroll. By hiring a competent payroll service you can take comfort in having an experienced third party handle their payrolling.
The payroll company and its client will figure out a plan that best fits the particular business, taking into account details pertaining to their workforce, amount of tax withholding required, budget, and more. Once the arrangement is set up, the payroll company will then handle payroll responsibilities, which may include payroll taxes, paycheck printing, calculating withholdings, direct deposit, and much more.
Why Use a Payroll Company?
By using a payrolling program like this, the employer and his/her business can enjoy a variety of benefits. These include saving time and money, avoiding payroll mistakes that can cost them fines, avoiding lost productivity, reduction of payroll anxiety, increased security, and more. In many cases, outsourcing payroll is more affordable than hiring someone into your company to manage it.
When it is managed correctly, company payroll can function smoothly without any problems or much effort. When it is managed improperly, the risk of incurring issues with payroll will increase. Whether they hire a professional payroll company or do it themselves, payroll is and will remain an important part of any business' operation.

Q: How to assert inside a pipeline in Elixir ExUnit.Case (Elixir) I have the following test that is working:
  test "accepts a request on a socket and sends back a response (using tasks)" do
    spawn(HttpServer, :start, [4000])

    urls = [
      "http://localhost:4000/products",
      "http://localhost:4000/shops",
    ]

    urls
    |> Enum.map(&Task.async(fn -> HTTPoison.get(&1) end))
    |> Enum.map(&Task.await/1)
    |> Enum.map(&assert_successful_response/1)
  end

  defp assert_successful_response({:ok, response}) do
    assert response.status_code == 200
  end

However, I'm searching for a way to remove the assert_successful_response method and do the assertion inside the pipeline. The example below exemplify what I'm trying to accomplish, but of course, it isn't working:
    urls
    |> Enum.map(&Task.async(fn -> HTTPoison.get(&1) end))
    |> Enum.map(&Task.await/1)
    |> Enum.map(&Task.async(fn(response) ->
      assert response.status_code == 200
    end))

How can I do that?

A: In the first place, you don't need Enum.map/2 when you don't use the result; use Enum.each/2 instead.
If I understood the requirement properly, this would work:
urls
|> Enum.map(&Task.async(fn -> HTTPoison.get(&1) end))
|> Enum.map(&Task.await/1)
|> Enum.each(&assert(match?({:ok, %{status_code: 200}}, &1)))

or, alternatively,
assert(elem(&1, 0) == :ok and elem(&1, 1).status_code == 200))

Our goal with the show is not to offend or make light of God. Instead, we want to point to the truth of Scripture, and hope that the truth can provoke people to examine their ways, and respond how they see fit. When we fail to reach truth, then we are settling for something else.
Modern definitions of church membership are invented by man. The concept of membership is distorted because the concept of the church is distorted. The church is not the legal organization existing in a building with set public meetings. Only Jesus can add you to the church So the question is, how does Jesus add you to the church? Many churches state that baptism is how you are added to the church. Scripture does not reflect this. Apostles and others in scripture were looking for the Holy Spirit in others, which is the Gift that Jesus promised us. Receiving the Holy Spirit is what includes us into God's church, the mystical Body of Christ.
So with this concept of church, what are the implications of becoming a member of God's church?
The Bible says if we love God we will obey His commands.
We should use our spiritual gifts. "Time, talents, and treasures" are not spiritual gifts, and things that should already be surrendered to Christ. Spiritual gifts are gifts from God that supernaturally empower us to minister.
Church membership in most churches does something very harmful that most people never think about. It creates a social class system. There are first time visiters, random attendees, regular attendees, members, tithing members, lay leaders, paid clergy. These different classes are treated differently and have different expectations placed on them.
God didn't design the church to be a class system. Scripture (1 Corinthians 12:22-25) states that God utilizes spiritual gifts to give everyone equal value in the Body. Each member should have abundant honor in the eyes of every other member.
There is God's design and man's design. God has an order to things. The church is the Body of Christ, a mystical, supernatural being made up of all believers throughout all time, someone the Bride and the Body of Christ at the same time, filled with the Holy Spirit of God. This is not something God would not give guidance in. He is not negligent.
The primary function of leadership in God's design is equipping. In man's design, it is control. The leader's of God's church should be nurturing and empowering people for ministry, not trying to control who can speak, serve, etc. The only "control" that God's leaders have is to stand against false doctrine, exclude unrepentant believers from the assembly, affirm God's call by the laying on of hands and sending out, appointing elders and deacons, and resolving disputes. Man's design of leadership resembles pharisees. They add requirements of education and submission. God gifts people supernaturally with leadership and forms them to lead. Man's design also includes non-competes in employment contracts. Man's leadership structure prevents certain people from teaching, speaking, singing, leading, serving, etc. Man doesn't have to control the gift of God; we have to affirm and nurture the gift, and set it loose.
The early church was accused by the Roman Empire of turning the whole world upside down. Where do we see that today? We do not accomplish this through political revolutions, through winning elections and passing policy; through oppressively establishing the morality of others. We do it the same way the early church did. We BE. We manifest the body of Christ here on the earth and declare the glory of God through how we love God, love our enemies, value life differently, transcend societal hierarchies and castes.
Some of the aspects of man's design are subtle, or appear altruistic, logical, and good. Among these is the practice of congregations electing elders. This seems like a minor preference of practice, and makes sense. The congregations would know the people best. America loves democracy. Democracy is good. Voting is good. However, it's not found in scripture. The elders were appointed by apostles or those they sent. This was important because the apostles were gifted to start these new spiritual works, these faith communities. This is not to say that the leaders are to lord their power over congregations. It doesn't mean they rule with an iron fist. As we outlined earlier, the leadership responsibilities have a lot to do with equiping, protecting, confronting heresy, etc. If a leader is elected by the congregation and then subjected to them through a paycheck and job description, then they are not free to lead.
Authority is an important topic to God. He establishes and empowers proper authority. He was heavy handed in how He shepherded Paul into his leadership position. Man's design does not make space for God's leadership development. Many American churches have a structure similar to a corporation. Many of them are legal corporations, in the form of a non-profit organization. Usually, this is so it can own property. Once it becomes a corporation, it needs to add officers, which are not found in Scripture but are required by law. Then then add offices, in the form of paid positions, to operate the church. These are jobs, with job descriptions, requirements, and paychecks. These also are not scriptural. This methodology is not found in Scripture, is subject to current laws, brings money and transaction into something which should function more like a family (could you imagine paying your father to be your father, complete with a list of job responsibilities and requirements to qualify?), and yet it has become the standard for how churches are formed. So much so that it is rarely questioned. If you dispute paid positions, people counter by saying you're against people supporting their spiritual leaders. If you dispute job requirements, people say you're opposed to ensuring righteous leadership. If you dispute having a legal corporation, people say you are opposed to accountability. And yet the early church accomplished all these ideals without subjecting themselves to extra-biblical, secular demands.
So why do we do this? Why does the church in America continue in this way, and why is it seldom questioned, and why is the questioning opposed? A lot of it is due to what we inherit. None of us invented these systems. We inherited them. We were told this was the way, it was good and true. We retrofit things into Scripture by cherry-picking verses to defend present practice, instead of diving deep and headlong into Scripture and the Holy Spirit and obeying diligently.
God has a structure for His church, and it is built on Jesus, on the proclamation of who He is, on the Good News of the Kingdom. The Church's manifest power comes from the declaration of God's glory through His people. The local church gains its uniqueness as the Holy Spirit transforms and empowers people to give up everything and separate themselves from the world, and as they use their spiritual gifts in power. As this entity grows, those with leadership gifts rise up and are recognized by the church, and they appoint deacons and elders to minister to the needs of the church. The leadership teaches and disciples people for the works of service.
Man's design starts with a bad foundation of an incomplete gospel. It builds on that an unbiblical structure of business and leadership. It defines its ministry by the walls of its buildings and hierarchy of leadership. We will continue to examine how these bad foundations distort and divide through things that should unite us, like communion, baptism, and spiritual gifts.


Millions of people struggle with the sit-to-stand motion. Transferring between sit and stand is a frequently performed daily task. Among the activities requiring this transferring movement, getting on and off the toilet is one of the most essential. Currently, the solution is to install taller toilets with handrails. These solutions create stigma and have great cost implications. This product must assists users with toilet transferring, is assembled easily and works compatibly with the existing toilet. Prototypes have been created and tested.
The overall purpose of this project was to design manual wheelchair technology that can meetthe unique needs of aging users across the continuum of residential environments whileaddressing the needs of family caregivers and facility staff.
This device targets the prevention of pressure ulcers (PrUs) by informing wheelchair users about their weight-shifting activity as a means to promote healthy behaviors and prevent pressure ulcers. WiSAT will have impact on wheelchair users, their clinicians, and researchers. Such a product can empower wheelchair users with knowledge about their behaviors associated with PrU prevention. The WiSAT's impact will extend beyond wheelchair users by also meeting the needs of clinicians and researchers by allowing real-world data to be collected easily and quickly. During rehabilitation interventions, clinicians educate persons SCI about PrU prevention. One aspect of this education is the training of a pressure-relief regimen that seeks to regularly shift weight off the load-bearing tissues of the buttocks.

Q: How I can refresh the DataGridView? I am trying to refresh a DataGridView when I update some row in other Form. I'm loading the DataGridView in the load event in this way:
Private Sub Home_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    Try
       (... Nothing important...)

        Me.StockBasicoTableAdapter1.FillByOwner(Me.SctmpruebasDataSet.StockBasico, idCompany)

    Catch exception As Exception
        BarraEstado.Text = exception.Message
    End Try

End Sub

So, when I have the data updated, I use REST to send it to my Java API and I update the data in my DB. So my problem is I don't have any idea to how I can update the DataGridView in the Home form to see the row updated.
 Private Sub BtnRegularizar_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles BtnRegularizar.Click, MyBase.Enter
    Try
       (... Here I update all the data ...)

        VariablesGlobales.PutRequest("http://localhost:8084/SCTM/api/UpdateBulto", bulto.ToString)

        Dim _dialogSuccess As OperacionCompletada = New OperacionCompletada()
        _dialogSuccess.Owner = Me
        _dialogSuccess.ShowDialog()

        Dim company = VariablesGlobales.usuario.Item("company")
        Dim idCompany = Integer.Parse(company.Item("idCompany").ToString)

        Home.StockBasicoTableAdapter1.FillByOwner(Home.SctmpruebasDataSet.StockBasico, idCompany)
    Catch exception As Exception
        Me.BarraEstado.Text = exception.Message()
    End Try
End Sub

I used this way, Home.DataGridView1.refresh() even both at once, without any result.
Thanks for your replies.

A: refresh method has nothing to do with it, it only repaints the control.
Check the following link for details regarding refresh method:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.control.refresh(v=vs.110).aspx
You need to reset the datasource of gridview control.
Example:
Home.DataGridView1.DataSource = you_data_object

A: and see here how is done more elegant, Step by Step  :
 'Open the mountains file geodatabase feature class
  Dim mountainsTable As Table = Table.OpenFileGeodatabaseTable("C:\Data\Romania.gdb", "mountains")

  'Create a new TableBindingAdapter object for the mountains Table
  Dim tableAdapter As TableBindingAdapter = New TableBindingAdapter(mountainsTable)

  'Set the UseCodedValueDomains property to display the descriptive name for the values in any
  'columns which have a CodedValueDomainDefined
  tableAdapter.UseCodedValueDomains = True

  'Set the UseColumnAliasNames property to display alias names in the Column headers.
  tableAdapter.UseColumnAliasNames = True

  'Fill the adapter with all the rows from the mountains Table
  tableAdapter.Fill()

  'Note that the BindingSource component and the DataGridView control would normally be
  'instantiated by dragging and dropping them onto a Windows Form from the toolbox.

  'Create a new BindingSource component
  Dim bindingSource1 As System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource = New System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource()
  'Set the DataSource to be the tableAdapter object
  bindingSource1.DataSource = tableAdapter

  'Create a DataGridView control
  Dim dataGridView1 As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView = New System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView()
  'Set the Datasource to be the bindingSource1 object
   dataGridView1.DataSource = bindingSource1


The craft of yarn bombing can take you on interesting journeys.
This yarn bombed bike has appeared in this blog before, but last time we saw it the wheels were on the ground. After this bike had a rocky life in a street art exhibition, survived stolen & returned wheels & stormy weather it has finally found a home in a palm tree. Below is a flashback of pictures from the past life of this plucky little yarn bombed bike.
When the bike was freshly yarn bombed and the yarn was bright & new.
Spotted on display on the caffe strip on Rundle st Adelaide South Australia.
After the wheels were stolen this impassioned message was left with the bike & as a result the wheels were returned although they were quite shabby. The palm tree that suspends this bike is going to be completely covered with yarn bombing so keep your eyes on this space for more photos in the future.
This bike was yarn bombed by my mates at craft club, Sarah-Jane cook, Nunya glazbrook, Branwen Davies, Maureen Cook, Melissa Waters & Me Ilianthe Kalloniatis. Special thanks goes to Nunyas mum for suggesting the wheel spoke design, which was inspired by the bike decorating competition at the Minlaton show when she was a kid.
