Wedding gown colors: What do they mean?
These days, wedding gowns are available in a variety of colors. Brides are no longer limited to just a shade of white. Designers such as Vera Wang have really brought colored wedding gowns to the forefront of bridal fashion. Therefore, more and more brides are stepping away from tradition and choosing a dress simply because they like the color. However, all colors have meaning. They each represent certain feelings, emotions, and states of mind. You might want to keep this in mind when selecting a color. Below is an overview of the most popular wedding gown colors and what they mean.
Colors have different meanings and a blue wedding gown suggests femininity and purity, plus it symbolize stability, security and lifelong loyalty.
White: White is associated with light, goodness, innocence, purity, and virginity. It is considered to be the color of perfection. This color of choice for the traditional bride is and will always a staple in bridal fashion.
Ivory: The same thing that is said about a white wedding gown can be said about an ivory one. It is also a very traditional color. However, some believe that ivory is also a symbol of tainted innocence. This is old school thinking and nowadays brides go for ivory because it looks better than white on their skin.
Red: Red may symbolize many things, the positives being love, infatuation, strong emotions, excitement, energy, strength, and passion. Many different types of cultural-based weddings are where red wedding gowns tend to be the most popular. But don't count out the bride that simply wants to make a statement and stand out from the crowd.
Pink: The color pink represents innocence, a child-like personality, freshness, purity, love, good health, and good life. It can also be worn to show a more flirtatious personality. Pink is normally a color associated with women and their femininity.
Blue: Blue is obviously associated with the color of water and the sea. It represents calmness and peacefulness. Blue also conveys femininity, life, purity, etc., just as water does. Blue can also symbolize stability, security and lifelong loyalty.
Black: Black is often looked upon as an eerie color—and an odd choice for a bride. But black wedding dresses are here and they are here to stay. Black can also be a color of elegance or class (such as a black-tie only event, and black evening gowns). Black also represents power, sexuality, sophistication, formality, wealth, mystery, depth, and best of all, sheer style.


The Macalope Weekly: Apple Stories Gone Wild!
Discount retailer T.J. Maxx reportedly has 16GB WiFi iPads in stock--and they're giving them away for $399.
Engadget reports that a tipster named Aaron discovered Apple's prized tablet selling for $100 off the asking price at a T.J. Maxx in Vernon, New York. Engadget says that it called some other T.J. Maxx's across the country and found a few stores with iPads in stock--Ohio and New Jersey included--while other outlets reported no such deal.
At least one store said they'd be holding back their stock for Black Friday, so you don't necessarily have to rush out to your local T.J. Maxx right this second. Quantities are, obviously, limited (one of the pictures the tipster sent in shows just seven iPads lined up behind the register), but otherwise it looks like the real deal.
The iPad is sure to be a hot gift this year--after all, it is the fastest-selling electronic device, ever--and while T.J. Maxx's deal sounds pretty good, it may not be better than Apple's Black Friday deal (Apple traditionally offers between 25 and 30 percent off of Macs and iPods, although we have no idea where the iPad stands).

The average annual savings is $10,160 for a person who switches his or her daily commute from driving to taking public transportation, according to the American Public Transportation Association's (APTA) June Transit Savings Report. This is the highest transit savings recorded this year. Individuals who ride public transportation instead of driving can save, on average, more than $847 per month.
The savings are based on the cost of commuting by public transportation compared to the cost of owning and driving a vehicle. Driving costs include the June 6 national average gas price ($2.94 per gallon, as reported by AAA) and the national unreserved monthly parking rate.
APTA releases the monthly Transit Savings Report to examine how an individual in a two-person household can save money by taking public transportation and living with one fewer car.
With gasoline prices on the rise, APTA and public transportation agencies nationwide are encouraging commuters to try public transit to avoid high gas prices.
LCTA operates a fixed route and shared ride service 6 days a week, Monday through Saturday.

NJ declares drought warning in 14 counties
Kala Kachmar
@NewsQuip
Despite some rain this week, the state has issued a drought warning in 14 New Jersey counties in an effort to conserve drinking water supplies.
Precipitation shortfalls, drying streams, low levels of groundwater and deteriorating water supplies in reservoirs have contributed to the state's critical drought situation, DEP officials said Friday. The goal of the warning is to preserve and balance available water supplies to prevent more serious shortages in the future.
DEP Commissioner Bob Martin, who issued the administrative order for the warning, said the situation in densely populated parts of northern New Jersey — which rely heavily on reservoir water — is becoming more critical. Some water systems are dropping to half their capacity or less.
Counties included in the warning are Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Ocean, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union and Warren counties. Salem, Gloucester, Camden and Burlington counties are under a drought watch.
Drinking water levels in Cumberland, Cape May and Atlantic counties are considered normal.
READ: Things to know about the drinking water drought
The warning gives Martin the authority to order water transfers between companies to areas in need. The DEP has been consulting water suppliers since July to assess conditions.
MORE: State preparing for drought in 12 counties
Although the warning doesn't impose restrictions on water consumption, state officials are urging residents to reduce their water use. If the situation worsens, the governor can declare a drought emergency, which gives the DEP the authority to limit water use.
Unlike in the northern part of the state, Monmouth and Ocean counties rely on a both reservoir and groundwater supplies. For four weeks, the groundwater in Monmouth and northern Ocean counties is "extremely dry," according to DEP drought indicators.
This week, groundwater supplies in northwest and central New Jersey counties moved in the "extremely dry" category, too.
Precipitation levels in the areas under drought warning have been 60 to 80 percent of average, state climatologist David Robinson said.
It would take average rainfall through April, or twice the average rainfall through the end of the year, to recover from the drought, Robinson said.
Source: Office of the New Jersey State Climatologist
MORE: Will NJ soon be under a drought warning?
The good news is, Robinson said, is the state doesn't have a "dry season," so getting out of a drought is easier than in states like California.
A public hearing on the details and impact of the drought situation was held in Millburn on Thursday afternoon. Climate experts, scientists, water company staff and local groups and organizations with interest in water systems and conservation testified at the hearing.

Hello friends, I am Anirudh Agrawal, class five, student Delhi. and today we are discussing about motions of the Earth What are the motions of the Earth? Number 1, Rotation: it is the movement of the Earth on its axis What are the motions of the Earth? Number two Revolution The movement of the Earth around the sun in a fixed path of the orbit is called "the revolution" What is orbital plane? The plane formed by the orbit is known as orbital plane The axis of the Earth which is an imaginary line makes an angle of 66 and a half degree with its orbital plane. What is circle of illumination? Due to the spherical shape of the Earth only half of it gets light from the Sun at a time the portion facing the Sun experiences day while the other half away from the Sun experiences night. The circle that divides the day from night on the globe is called the circle of illumination. The circle of illumination does not coincide with the axis. What is Earth day? The Earth takes about 24 hours to complete one rotation around its axis. This is the daily rotation of the Earth. This period of rotation is known as "the Earth day" Why February has 29 days It takes exact 365 days and 6 hours to complete one revolution around the Sun. However, we count 1 year equals 365 days only and ignore 6 hours for sake of convenience. Six hours saved energy year are added to make one day (24 hours) over a span of 4 years Thus, every fourth year February is of 29 days instead of 28 days. What is leap year? A year with 366 days is called a leap year. Manner of revolution The Earth revolves around the Sun in an elliptical orbit Throughout it revolution around the orbit the Earth inclined in the same direction Types of seasons. summer seasons winter seasons spring seasons autumn seasons Why there is change in seasons ?

Sebi defers deadline by 2 years to split chairman & MD post
Admin | 6334 Views | 14 Jan 2020
SEBI, Companies Act 2013,
Markets regulator Sebi has deferred by two years to April 2022 its directive for listed companies to split the roles of chairman and managing director in view of demand from corporates, and to keep compliance burden lower in the wake of the current economic scenario.
Under the Sebi norms, the top 500 listed entities by market capitalisation were mandated to comply with the requirement of separation of the roles of chairperson and managing director (MD) or chief executive officer (CEO) with effect from April 1, 2020.
The norms were aimed at improving corporate governance structure of listed companies.
Now, the date of implementation of the regulatory provision has been deferred to April 1, 2022, according to a gazette notification dated January 10.
While the notice did not specify any reason for the move, sources said that the decision to defer the implementation has been taken in view of demand from corporates and also to ease the compliance burden amid a slowing economic growth rate.
Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has been receiving various representations with respect to the regulatory requirements including from industry bodies like Ficci and CII. The representations highlighted the present levels of unpreparedness of listed entities to comply with the directive.
Data from stock exchanges reveal that presently, only around 50 per cent of the top 500 listed entities are in compliance with the regulatory provision.
Currently, many companies have merged the two posts as CMD (chairman-cum-managing director), leading to some overlapping of the board and management, which could lead to conflict of interest and consequently the regulator in May 2018 came out with its norms to split the post.
The norms were part of the series of recommendations given by the Sebi-appointed Kotak committee on corporate governance.
A large number of big companies including Reliance Industries, BPCL, ONGC, Coal India, Wipro and HeroMotoCorp have a single person holding the twin post of chairman and managing director.
Industry body Ficci has welcomed Sebi's decision to extend its deadline for splitting Chairman and MD posts by two years to April 2022.
"This was part of multiple representations made by Ficci and we appreciate that Sebi has extended the deadline as managerial continuity, unified vision and speed of execution are crucial to business success and are facilitated in family businesses," the industry body's President Sangita Reddy said.
Anjali Aggarwal, Partner at Corporate Professionals, said Sebi's decision to extend the deadline would surely be a sigh of relief for many a family run companies and state controlled entities, but what is needed to be understood is the capital market regulator's intent behind mandating the splitting of positions.
"Governance measures are the top priority for the regulator and the slightest of conflict of interest is avoidable. The same person holding both the MD as well as chairman positions could have led to such a situation, thus jeopardising the basic essence of corporate governance," she added.

Every Marinette student from first through 12th grade will have access to important educational technology next school year. Tuesday, the Marinette School Board approved the purchase of 350 new Chromebooks, making the Chromebook-to-student ratio 1:1- an initiative established by the school board a few years ago. Dee Morin, District Information Technology Coordinator says the devices are necessary to help students prepare for their career and college experience and at the end of the 2018-2019 school year, seniors will have a $1 buyout option for their Chromebook. The cost of the new Chromebooks is just over $75000. The School Board also approved the purchase of a four-year warranty for the devices for an additional $24000.
Summer hours will go into effect at the Marinette School District's District Offices next week. Beginning Monday, June 25th, the offices will be open 8:00 AM until 4:00 PM Monday through Thursday and 8:00 A-M until noon on Fridays. Offices will be closed on Wednesday, July 4th in observance of Independence Day. Regular school-year hours will resume on Monday, August 6th.

Q: Controling steppermotor with raspberry pi For a school project, I need to control a stepper motor with a raspberry pi or Arduino. I was thinking about a NEMA 17 or NEMA 23 motor. I study mechanical engineering so I don't have much experience with programming Arduino or a raspberry pi.
The motor has to move a carriage 450mm linearly with a variable speed between 50 and 250mm/s. I will use a leadscrew with a lead of 25mm/rev. torque is not a big problem. I calculated the max motor speed to be 600rpm for 250mm/s.

*

*my questions are:

what motor should I use?
can I program the speed to be adjustable?
is this even possible?
how should I start to program this?
Is 600rpm posible with a nema 23 or 17? on google i find anywere from 400 to 1500rpm max
I hope some of you can help me with some of the questions. if you think you have something you can help me with, please respond.

A: 25 mm/rev lead screw is probably a little big to drive with a NEMA17. Go with the NEMA23.
A typical motor driver will allow you to send direction and step commands over the GPIO. This is the easiest way to control the motor in open loop mode. Your program will tell the controller to take 200 steps to move your linear slide by 25 mm each step being about .125 mm.
The speed is going to be determined by how fast you send step commands. If you send 1 step every millisecond, you will get a linear velocity of 125 mm/s. If you send a step command every 5 milliseconds, you'll get a linear velocity of 25 mm/s.
Starting a stepper motor at high velocity often doesn't work very well, so you'll likely need to include a ramp-up and ramp-down in your program to prevent the motor from skipping steps. If you are running in open loop mode, you have to make sure this never happens or you won't be able to keep track of the position.

THE LAST MAN ON EARTH Review: "When the Going Gets Tough" / "Nature's Horchata"
By Tim Malcolm on	 May 7, 2017 3 - TELEVISION NEWS, TV Reviews
So here it is. Maybe. Who knows. Possibly.
We still don't know whether THE LAST MAN ON EARTH is returning for a fourth season. The ratings haven't been very good, with less than two million viewers consistently over the past few weeks, and 18-34 viewership not as strong as in years past.
That said, it has a history, so maybe Fox picks it up for a fourth season, keeping it on the bubble. That means the show's going to need all the natural miracles, new locales, nuclear meltdowns and Kristen Wiig cameos it can get.
Yes, the two-part season finale of "When the Going Gets Tough" (Billy Ocean reference) and "Nature's Horchata" (breastmilk) is a strong finish. It has soaring highs (the birth of Erica's daughter Dawn), wraps up a lot of story (said pregnancy, the falling object, Pat's return, Wiig's appearance as Pamela Brinton), puts the survivors on the road again, and contains just enough Tandy without going overboard.
So let's start with the soaring high.
Simply put, The Last Man on Earth is strongest when it dials down Will Forte and accentuates the rest of the cast. The first third of "When the Going Gets Tough" forgets this, with Tandy nudging his way into every part of Erica's delivery. While we get an awesome little Tony Levin reference (I know the guy), we go too far: Tandy puts on a Phil Miller mask to try and ease everyone's fears. How many reminders do we need that Tandy is the most unaware person on Earth? The Phil mask seems one step too far.
But then Tandy is asked to take Jasper to the park (partly because Gail and Todd don't want Jasper exposed to Erica's delivery, and partly because they want Tandy out of their hair), and the episode takes off. Not only do we get fantastic moments from Todd (a crying mess), Gail (working through numerous issues including a potential breach of Erica's baby) and Melissa (how good has January Jones been this season?), but Tandy shows enormous emotional growth with Jasper, talking him out of the worst possible fear (though he does overreach) while showing him a fun time at the water park (thanks to plenty of vegetable oil).
Plus we also get a fun runner with Carol listening to a CD of various situations of laughter.
This is the show at its best. It's funny, it's thrilling, it's episodically unusual and finds a soul through the mess.
And it turns on a dime.
Just when Erica gives birth to Dawn, and the sun is rising for our survivors, Tandy breaks in with bad news: there's a massive fire spreading too close to them, and it's possibly a nuclear meltdown. Last Man foreshadowed this with the falling object a few weeks back, and now it's a true threat, sending everyone into panic mode as they decide to drive off to a new home.
That's the basis for "Nature's Horchata," a classic Last Man road plot with all the trimmings: They don't know where they're going, they worry about everything, and Tandy gets on everyone's nerves (and causes some serious damage). It's a bit weaker than "When the Going Gets Tough," but again, it relies enough on the supporting cast, keeping it from going under.
Then there's the finish. Ultimately the survivors decide the only place safe enough for them (since more nuclear meltdowns are increasingly likely to occur) is at sea, so they head for Los Angeles to grab a boat. The problem is Tandy puts out a bunch of candles in their house (he attached his and Carol's house to make her feel more comfortable), and one falls, causing the house to burn down.
(For a moment, by the way, it felt as if maybe Forte knew something we didn't yet know, and was about to burn alive the entire cast because, of course, the show should end on Tandy screwing something up.)
Anyway, the house fire causes a humongous plume of smoke to signal their arrival in L.A., causing Pat to find them. And he does (thanks again to Tandy), but not before Pamela shoots him dead as a welcome present.
Is it a little too clean? Sure. Does it come too quick? Probably. But there was enough setup to justify the finish, a good capper for a season that started with Pat nearly killing the entire group in Malibu.
So what now? If Last Man returns, we have a nine-person group on the high seas. Carol should experience delivery, Pamela would be part of the team (that's a pretty stellar season-four cast if it happens) and plenty of questions are out there to be answered (What's the next major disaster to strike? Is Mike still out there?).
But if not, and this really is the end, it's certainly unfulfilling. In recent months it's become more than hobby for people to think about end times, and so there's something exciting and insightful about The Last Man on Earth. It's the show where a montage of presidential funerals can be humorous, just seconds before we see the chilling effect the end of the world can have on personal relationships. In "When the Going Gets Tough," it's the show that offers us a moment of genuine beauty (Dawn's birth), just seconds before we're reminded of the horrors that face our protagonists at every turn.
The Last Man on Earth is the rare show that pressures us to think about our own mortality while lightheartedly showing us that life is pretty ridiculous. And for that it's an important show to have around right now. Maybe we really do need it, even if there's often too much Tandy, and even if it can meander into places we don't necessarily need to visit (and revisit).
As it stands, Kirsten Wiig shooting someone dead and declaring "Hi, I'm Pamela" would actually be a weirdly memorable way to finish it off. It could be a stark reminder that no matter how much we attempt to control the world, things are going to happen that we never would've imagined, like Kirsten Wiig showing up at the perfect moment to kill the guy who wants to kill everyone else.
It's a reminder that these fools have no idea what they're doing, and they're lucky they stayed alive this long.
Which really is what this is all about, isn't it?
Touche, The Last Man on Earth. Forever and ever, touche.

Q: SPOJ's "Life, the Universe, and Everything" in Haskell - `if' parse error I am a beginner in Haskell and want to start solving problems with it, so I tried to solve the very first SPOJ problem (problem code: TEST). The "problem" is to read lines and print them until "42" comes up.
main = do input <- getLine
          if input == "42" then putStr ""
          else do putStrLn input
                  main

My solution is very simple, but I get a parse error on input 'if'. Everything works just fine when I change 'main' to 'main2' at the beginning and in the else-statement. Why is there a parse error on 'if'?

A: Your editor mixes tabs and spaces, and while your editor shows a tab as 4 spaces, Haskell interprets a tab as 8 character.
Note that you cannot reproduce your code here on StackOverflow in a normal code block, since StackOverflow automatically replaces tabs with spaces. Try for yourself - copy the code from your question into your editor, assuming it doesn't automatically transform spaces at the beginning into tabs.
So disable tabs in your editor and convert existing tabs to four spaces and you should be fine.

A: Try indenting the "else" more on the right than the "if". This is no longer required now (IIRC), but earlier compilers required that. The reason is that in a do block your code is parsed as:
main = do { input <- getLine ;
            if input == "42" then putStr "" ;  -- parse error, no "else"
            else do { putStrLn input ;
                      main
                    }
          }

New compilers should allow the extra ";" beofre the "else", older ones do not.
For more details see DoIfThenElse.

Film Review: Laser Mission (1989)
Charleston Picou 03/31/2018	Bad Movies
Mercenary Gold is sent from the CIA to seize the laser expert Braun in Cuba, before the KGB catches him. A recently stolen giant diamond could be used together with Braun's knowledge to construct a laser cannon which could bring power over the whole world. Who will succeed: CIA or KGB – or none of them?
One could argue that Brandon Lee, son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, was on the cusp of superstardom when he was killed during the filming of The Crow. If the movie was anything to go by, he really had all the tools to become a big name in Hollywood. However, like a lot of actors and actresses, he had made a few B-movies while trying to get his big break. Some of those movies, like Laser Mission, weren't the best examples of what he was later capable of.
Laser mission centers on Michael Gold (Brandon Lee), a man who does freelance work for the CIA. He's been tasked to retrieve a scientist from a communist country and bring him to America. However, things quickly turn a turn for the worst when some communist agents knock Gold out with a sleep dart and kidnap the scientist. The Soviet Russians want the guy because they want him to build a laser weapon that could tip the delicate balance of the Cold War to their favor. Gold then is tasked with finding the scientist, rescuing him, and bringing him to safety while avoiding the dozens of enemy soldiers hunting for him.
To list all the problems with Laser Mission would require me to write a review that's almost as long as a novel, so I'll just start with the "highlights", such as they are. First, the film is tonally inconsistent. A lot of the actors, including Lee, are playing it straight, yet there are a loot of goofy attempts that makes you wonder what they're going for. Are the filmmakers trying to go for a serious action movie, or are they trying to make some kind of action comedy? It's hard to tell what Laser Mission is trying to be, and half the time it's like the people behind the camera aren't sure either. It seems to switch tones one moment from the next. It creates this sense of dissonance that only serves to take the audience out of the story. Not that there really is a whole lot to keep anyone invested anyways.
Adding to the film's numerous problems is the fact that it doesn't really establish where the heck it's taking place. At first it seems like it's taking place in Cuba (with white people using makeup to look Cuban), and then it seems like it's taking place in Africa even though it has a lot of the "Cuban" soldiers working with the Soviets. Brandon Lee's character even dresses up like a Cuban soldier even though at that point in the movie, everything seems to point at them being in Africa. It's completely baffling and just intensifies that sense of disorientation even further. If it's supposed to be Cuba, then having Soviet Russians have influence over the local military makes some sense. However, if they're in Africa, then it really doesn't. Trying to figure it out is not only not worth your time, but your mind will be like a hamster in a wheel: it'll be running in place going nowhere.
There were also so many plot holes that a block of Swiss cheese would make a great physical representation of the story. There are characters that make baffling decisions that are contradictory to what they were saying previously, or they'll accept things at face value when it doesn't make sense for them to. It's the kind of story that falls apart under the barest minimum of scrutiny.
The acting is subpar at best. Brandon Lee himself is not that good here, but I find it hard to believe that's all on him. He's not given much to work with. However, he still manages to get by with his charm and charisma. The rest of the cast goes from barely competent to just outright bad. No one shows the ability to maintain an accent, not even veteran actor Ernest Borgnine. Not only was it curious to see him in this turkey, but it was just as shocking to see him be so bad. It was sad to see an Oscar winning actor slum it in this production. You could almost feel his self-respect drain from his body in his scenes.
Not even the action set pieces could save this film. I could put up with a lot if the fights were more exciting. However, they all lacked any sense of urgency or tension. While Brandon Lee showed a great talent for action and was good in the fights, all of his efforts are wasted. The camera work didn't always properly complement the scenes, and the editing was so abrupt at times that it ruined the illusion. The director had a great talent in Lee and had a chance to make his movie shine when it was time for the fighting to start, but he either lacked the skill, talent, or both, to properly utilize the actor. It was a wasted opportunity.
Some people have tried to call Lazer Mission a "so bad it's good film", and I have to disagree with them. This is a "so bad it's just bad" movie. From the strange tonal shifts, the overall confusion, lackluster acting, and tepid action scenes, there's nothing remotely enjoyable or entertaining here. It's a film that seems to have an identity crises on what it wants to be and wastes two incredibly talented performers (Brandon Lee and Ernest Borgnine). It's not the most horrible movie I've ever seen, but it's still crap. I can't recommend checking it out.

How do you not even mention the female 'lead', Debi A. Monahan?
Yes, she may not be the best actress in this bad, but still enjoyable movie, but she is absolutely ADORABLE (my opinion, of course) !!
I usually like your not overly-long and (mostly) interesting reviews, but this one REALLY offers little of value….other than those that happen to be Brandon Lee 'fanboys', which I'm guessing you are (and that's not a judgment, just an observation)….

When your mom is a former college track runner, the general assumption is that you will follow
suit, at least in terms of giving the sport a try. That wasn't the case for Caroline Alcorta. Even though her mom had put the idea of running her head early on, her freshman year of high school she played field hockey in the fall instead of cross country. Even then though, her favorite part of playing field hockey was the running aspect which she described as a "sign." That winter, she ran indoor track and "stuck with it ever since," she says.
Hailing from Springfield, Virginia, Alcorta took an unofficial visit to North Carolina during her
junior year of high school, describing it as the "first imprint of what I had imagined my college
experience to be like." On that visit she realized that she had found the place she wanted to be for the four years after high school.
Alcorta has since gone on to an All-ACC performance in cross country, finishing 12th at the
Conference Championship meet her sophomore year. Last season, however, she hit a bit of a speed bump. After getting off to a good start, which included winning both the Elon Opener and the Adidas XC Challenge, Alcorta was hit with the injury bug and missed the remainder of the season. She says she doesn't know if she will take her fifth year of eligibility with the Tar Heels or if this will in fact be her final season at UNC and for that reason, she does feel a bit of a sense of urgency.
"This could be my last season wearing Carolina blue, so I still have to prove myself," she says. It is clear that Alcorta wants to not only get back to that All-ACC level, but improve upon it as well.
Reflecting on her career and what she still has left in herself to prove seemed to bring out in Alcorta the kind of emotion one feels when faced with the end of a long and arduous journey.
Alcorta is hopeful about the prospects of the team as a whole this season, saying that they have the distinction this year of having contributors from all classes after losing no runners from last
year's team. As an individual, she seems ready and eager to get back to where she once was, and reach greater heights.
Look for Caroline Alcorta to run with a greater sense of having something to prove, and if she stays healthy, she could be in for a huge return in 2017.

Well, here's another fine mess they've got us into!
Some say that our political system is the worst in the world – except for all of the rest – and while it has its pros, the dreadful spectacle of the last week has again revealed many of its cons.
The stupidity of the loony right faction, who even seemed incapable of adding up numbers, was repeatedly demonstrated by the inability of any government member to answer the simple questions "why did this have to happen?" and "why now?" The current group of federal Liberals, having revealed themselves as a party of organised hypocrisy, have proven by their actions to anyone who still naïvely believed that our politicians were there to serve our interests, that their overwhelming motivation is that of self interest and self aggrandisement.
Their disillusioning public performance and their "up you!" attitude to the public of Australia has justifiably provoked outraged reactions. Yet it has simultaneously exposed a common misunderstanding about our political system that must now be addressed.
The common response to Malcolm Turnbull's demise has been that the Liberal party has ignored the vote of the people that elected him as Prime Minister. Except however that the electorate did not vote for Malcolm Turnbull as P.M. He was elected as member for Wentworth and he himself has decided to vacate that position. However the fact remains that as the leader of the Liberals, his party won government and that as a corollary of his party's electoral success, he gets the top job. But that is a decision made by his party rather than directly by the electorate and therein lays the rub. What the party giveth, the party can taketh away.
And the public is mightily peeved at this.
This problem would never arise in countries such as France, Austria, USA, Finland, Ireland, Portugal and others because in those countries the people have the right to elect their national leader.
We could quickly end this cab-rank of Australian PM's by modifying our political system so that the leader of the successful party is, ipso facto, the PM which could only change through a general election or the death or incapacity of the incumbent. If the public (as opposed to the government) got sick of the PM they could vote him out at the next election. At least that way Australians know that the person elected as PM will lead them for the next four (or perhaps three) years without the interruption, expense and disruption of a coup.
Abraham Lincoln once said that no man is good enough to govern another man without that other's consent. How many of those who voted for the coalition in the last election could ever have imagined that they were also consenting to being ruled by Peter Dutton or, for that matter, Scott Morrison?

Peter and Wendy (1911) is the title of James M. Barrie's novelization of his most famous play, Peter Pan: or, The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up (1904). Inspired by Barrie's friendship with the Llewelyn Davies family, both the play and the novel tell the story of Peter Pan, a mischievous young boy who can fly, and his adventures on the island of Neverland with Wendy Darling and her brothers. The novel follows the play closely, though its final chapter is an addition to the original work. Peter and Wendy was first published in 1911 by Hodder & Stoughton in the United Kingdom and Charles Scribner's Sons in the United States. In 1929, Barrie gave the copyright to the works featuring Peter Pan to Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), Britain's leading children's hospital.

Kelantan's guidelines turning Mak Yong into 'something else' entirely, group says September 30, 2019	–	Posted in: In The News
BY EMMANUEL SANTA MARIA CHIN
KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 30 — Strict guidelines imposed by the Kelantan government on Mak Yong performances, despite recently lifting an almost three-decade-long ban, have seen the art move away from its historical roots, said arts NGO Pusaka.
Its chairman Eddin Khoo was quoted by The Star saying the restrictions imposed on Mak Yong, a traditionally female-dominated performance which is distinctive to Kelantan's history, has seen it transform into "something else".
"After the lifting of the ban, the tradition has become one for men.
"It's another form altogether. It's not the original form.
Mak Yong was originally practised as part of a strict tradition upholding the unique place of women within Kelantan. — Picture by Ham Abu Bakar
"It shouldn't have been banned in the first place and now you make a big hoo-ha about the lifting of the ban when actually you have transformed the tradition entirely and have pulled it out of its roots from Kelantanese society, which is very destructive," Khoo was quoted saying by the daily.
Khoo explained that restrictions meant that organisers must now ensure male and female performers and those in the audience are separated by gender, and that performances do not contain elements of worship.
He said Mak Yong, which was originally practised as a strict tradition as part of Kelantan's history upholding the unique place of women within the state, is now a form of entertainment.
"It is also a very therapeutic form of theatre and a healing tradition. This is a tradition that is hundreds of years old.
"It defines and encapsulates the culture and traditions of Kelantan. We should put a stop to bureaucratic interference in what is our country's heritage," Khoo added.
The report also quoted Cultural Economy Development Agency CEO Izan Satrina, who said the lifting of the ban was a step in the right direction for the Kelantan government, but admitted there is a need to promote the freedom of artistic expression among Malaysians.
"Presenting Mak Yong with conditions may alter its authenticity and therefore transform the origins of Mak Yong to something new," she was quoted in the report.
Mak Yong performances were outlawed by the Kelantan PAS government in 1991, with the ban becoming official in 1998 when the Entertainment and Places of Entertainment Control Enactment was passed by the state assembly in that year.
Mak Yong was previously proclaimed as an Intangible Cultural Heritage by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (Unesco) in 2005, in a last-ditch bid to save the performance art.
Mak Yong has been performed in the region for nearly a millennium, and historians believe it was brought to Kelantan around 200 years ago.
A performance entails dancing, acting and singing ― telling stories dating back to the Srivijaya Empire in the 7th century, and the times of the legendary Kelantan queen Che Siti Wan Kembang who was believed to have ruled between the 14th and 16th centuries.

Chancellor signals cap on pay rises and more attacks on AfC
20 March, 2013 By Steve Ford
Nurses face future basic pay rises capped at 1% and renewed attempts to drive down pay progression, suggest today's Budget statement.
The Chancellor said public sector pay awards would be limited to an average of up to 1% until 2015-16.
This represents an extension to the 1% rise for NHS staff that was announced earlier this month by the government and which comes into effect on 1 April.
The previous announcement was criticised by unions for being well below inflation and by employers for adding to the financial pressures faced by trusts. The extension of the 1% rise in basic pay is therefore unlikely to please either side.
Of more concern to nurses and other staff is likely to be George Osborne's rhetoric on incremental pay rises for public sector works, which NHS staff receive through the Agenda for Change framework.
In his Budget speech today, Mr Osborne said: "The government will extend the restraint on public sector pay for a further year by limiting increases to an average of up to 1% in 2015-16.
"We will also seek substantial savings from what is called progression pay. These are the annual increases in the pay of some parts of the public sector.
"I think they are difficult to justify when others in the public sector, and millions more in the private sector, have seen pay frozen or even cut," he said. "I know that is tough but it is fair."
Mr Osborne's comments come barely a month after employers and unions agreed to changes to AfC, which will see some reductions in pay, terms and conditions.
However, the Chancellor did state that the NHS budget would remain ring-fenced over the next two financial years.
"We will reduce resource departmental expenditure limits by the equivalent to a 1 per cent reduction for most departments," he said. "The schools and health budgets will remain protected – because our promise to our NHS is a promise we will keep."
Frances O'Grady, general secretary of the Trades Union Congress, said: "The Chancellor is either oblivious to the tough time that millions of public sector workers and their families are having or he is deliberately setting out to punish them.
"Family budgets are at breaking point and millions of nurses, teachers, fire-fighters, council workers and civil servants will have been hoping the Chancellor might ease their pain today, not add significantly to it," he said.
"The government also seems set on ditching long-established, easy-to-understand pay progression in the public sector based on increased experience and skills over time," he added.
"Reports of a further move towards a messy system of individual performance-related pay will damage morale – already at a low ebb – undermine team working, and do nothing to improve services."
Peter Carter, chief executive and general secretary of the Royal College of Nursing, said: "Yet again hard working nurses will not find much cause for celebration in this year's budget.
"The news that public sector pay will continue to be capped at 1% until 2016 means yet more financial difficulty for the UK's nurses. This also continues to undermine the principle of an independent pay review body."
Jon Skewes, director for employment relations, policy and communications at the Royal College of Midwives, added: "This condemns hard-working midwives to another three years of pay misery after two years when pay was frozen. We are also deeply concerned about the plans to stop pay progression."
But Dean Royles, chief executive of the NHS Employers organisation, said: "Even limited to 1%, the public sector pay increase announced by George Osborne this afternoon will add in the region of £500m to NHS annual expenditure when applied across all NHS staff.
"This is the equivalent of around 15,000 new nurses," he claimed.

What else did we expect from this absolute bar-steward? Time for a strike.
We have gone backwards again, all that training, propping up services because we are cheaper than medics, well no more putting my registration at risk trying to juggle all these demands, I'm off!!
tinkerbell20 March, 2013 6:03 pm
we want to destroy and demoralise the NHS so we can privatise it isn't actually a vote winner is it, but at least it would be more honest.
This is a disastrous budget for a lot of us. There is nothing in it at all that will benefit me or my partner as usual.
Anonymous20 March, 2013 10:22 pm
will all medical/nursing personnel working until aged 67 have to undergo the same dementia tests they subject their elderly patients to?
with the increase of life expectancy and rise in retirement age perhaps the age of being labelled 'geriatric' should be raised as well. I am sure people still working in the NHS until such an advanced age won't wished to be labelled geriatrics!
Sandy Beech21 March, 2013 11:15 am
Another couple years of scrimping and saving, on top of the years we've already had. It's not going to help us to spend more money other than on essentials and if lucky a few treats.
If given a choice of what to train for and where to work I reckon people will look towards finance, banking, technology and law. Better than spending all that hard work + energy where you're not going anywhere, constantly criticized for not being good enough, on real terms pay reductions every year and little or no support from employers, and downgrading for experienced staff who have more skills, experienced + highly trained.
The so called savings isn't going to bring in 15000 more nurses, not going to stop even more nurses losing their jobs or decrease in pay, definitely not going to stop things costing more just to provide same level of care (even though we know standards must improve). So ring fencing without covering for inflationary costs will not help.
Time to chop the fat of non productive staff, those who don't help or assist directly with the needs of frontline care, those who don't want to implement evidence-based research, reports + commissions which tell us how to improve our services.
Money is tight but more of the same (harsh) conditions directed at us isn't working, time for them to look elsewhere to cut wastes and to improve efficiency.
redpaddys1221 March, 2013 12:41 pm
At least the personal allowance has gone up to £10,000, and if you are on a million quid a year, your tax bill drops by £42,000, so we're all in it together!
In effect the nurses are on a trajectory of being worse off year by year now we have the incremental scales within the bands abolished. Lets see out of reach each hospital puts standards in for each job description to attain an increment....wishful or unrealistic ?
Sandy Beech21 March, 2013 5:22 pm
Personal allowance only up next year, 2014. Why not next month.
Osborne says that incremental pay rises within the bands are hard to justify while private sector and others don't get it. What about career progression? He can't expect us to stay on the same pay infinitum; not everyone gets a promotion and the chance to earn more. He tries to make us feel that we owe him to even have a job in the public sector. Before long he will have stopped all unsocial hours enhancements, and have us all on one pay point for each band. In addition, we won't get any pay for the first few days of sickness, and we will get only 1 or 2 months full pay and 1 or 2 months half pay if on long term sick. Then it will be statutory sick pay only, and/or benefits. He will then wonder where all the nurses are! It is truly depressing.

Malawi's President Peter Mutharika has set up a commission of inquiry to investigate attacks against people with albinism.
The commission, headed by a retired supreme court judge, is expected to establish whether there is a trade in body parts and to find out why the justice system has been slow to convict perpetrators.
People with albinism in Malawi, Mozambique and Tanzania have been killed because of the mistaken belief that rituals involving parts of their bodies can bring good luck and wealth.
On Wednesday, police in Malawi blocked a protest march by dozens of people with albinism who were trying to present a petition to the president following a spike in attacks.
