One of the biggest drivers of our property markets is consumer confidence.
And one of the important factors in consumer confidence is job stability.
While "official" unemployment rates seem low, Roy Morgan research suggests a total of 2.390 million Australians, 17.9% of the workforce, were either unemployed (1,253,000) or under-employed (1,137,000) – down 90,000 (down 0.9%) from February 2016.
Unemployment is less than a year ago with 1.253 million Australians now unemployed (down 66,000 in a year and down 0.6% at 9.4%).
Full-time employment is 7,904,000 – up 87,000 from a year ago (7,817,000 in February 2016).
Under-employment in February is now 8.5% (down 0.3% since February 2016) of the work force and 1,137,000 Australians (down 24,000 since February 2016) are under-employed.
"Australian employment grew over the past year – now at 12,095,000 (up 240,000 since February 2016). The increase was powered by a large increase in part-time employment – up 153,000 to 4,191,000 although full-time employment also grew strongly – up 87,000 to 7,904,000.
"However, despite the employment growth Australian real unemployment is still far too high – now 9.4% (1.253 million, down 66,000 from a year ago) Australians are unemployed, and an additional 8.5% (1.137 million, down 24,000) are under-employed – a total of 2.390 million (17.9%) looking for work or looking for more work.
"The weekend's WA State Election result should be a huge wake-up fall for the Federal Government about what happens when Governments fail to take the tough decisions and allow the economic situation to deteriorate without taking action.
"A recent Roy Morgan Research analysis of changes in unemployment and under-employment around the Australian States showed Western Australia (15.9%) was well under the Australian figure (16.6%) for total unemployment and under-employment late in 2015 but by late 2016 Western Australia (19.6%) was well above the Australian figure (17.6%).
"Over the year to late 2016 total unemployment and –under-employment in Western Australia had increased by 3.7% as the mining boom came to an end and the Barnett Government failed to provide continuing employment to many laid off workers. The WA State Election saw a record swing of over 15% against the Liberal Government of Colin Barnett and a massive victory to the ALP.
"The ALP is predicted to win up to 40 seats (up 19) in the 59 seat WA Parliament while the Liberals may win as few as a dozen – down from 31 seats won at the previous 2013 WA Election. Former WA Premier Colin Barnett's failure to make the reforms to increase employment opportunities in WA for newly unemployed and under-employed workers was the key reason WA electors didn't trust Barnett to manage the WA economy for growth, and new jobs, over the next four years.
"The result in WA is a clear message to Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to push ahead and enact the key reforms to get the Australian economy moving again and creating new jobs – reducing red tape in industry including supporting the recent Fair Work Commission decision to cut weekend and public holiday penalty rates, tackling the large cash economy that drains money from more productive uses, and implementing the promised company tax cuts are all vital reforms the Turnbull Government must support that will help reduce Australia's high real unemployment and under-employment.
This Roy Morgan survey on Australia's unemployment and 'under-employed'* is based on weekly face-to-face interviews of 521,820 Australians aged 14 and over between January 2007 – February 2017 and includes 3,976 face-to-face interviews in February 2017.

EA Defends Medal of Honor's Taliban Faction Change
Tom Goldman | 2 Oct 2010 19:35
An EA spokesman doesn't think the decision to rename Medal of Honor's Taliban multiplayer faction is that big of a deal.
When it was revealed that EA decided to include the Taliban as a playable faction in the upcoming Medal of Honor reboot's multiplayer mode, people were upset. It's not surprising that Jack Thompson jumped to bash the game for this feature, but even military bases banned the game from being sold on their property. The resulting controversy caused EA to rename the Taliban to "Opposing Force," much to the ire of those believing in free speech, but EA defends the recent change by pointing out that it's incredibly minor.
Starting on October 4, EA will be holding an open beta just so that everyone can see that Medal of Honor's gameplay hasn't changed one bit. EA spokesman Jeff Brown told Kotaku: "The reason we're posting the multiplayer demo next week is so people can judge for themselves. Does changing one word in the menu screen have any impact on the actual play of the game that takes place in Afghanistan?"
"The only thing that has changed is one seven-letter word in the menu screen," he added. "There is not a single pixel or frame that is changed."
However, Brown is confounded over the controversy. He continues: "If you could place a fiction in Afghanistan in a book or in a movie or in a TV show or other contemporary work , then why draw an artificial distinction of 'but not in a video game?'" Despite the name change, he says it's "pretty clear who is fighting who" due to the game's location.
It seems like Medal of Honor developer Danger Close just can't win. Including the Taliban led to a huge controversy. Removing the Taliban led to another controversy. The studio created a game with a story about a realistic modern conflict, but also wanted to include a multiplayer feature that has made titles like Modern Warfare 2 so popular, so what were they to do, feature a multiplayer mode with only American soldiers killing each other? Would that have been okay with those upset over players being able to play as soldiers labeled "Taliban?"
I've got to admit, to make such a recent conflict into the "fun" of a multiplayer game does feel a little weird, but just because it's modern I'm not sure it should be off limits to game developers. After all, it's not an American soldier murder simulator, it's a game based on a real, ongoing conflict. It's immature to say that any piece of media can't explore both human sides of a war.
Medal of Honor will be released on October 12 for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC.

I broke into writing books (which is what I call really WRITING!) because I was writing some scripts for a TV preschoolers program called Lift Off! They decided to turn some of the stories into picture books. They called to ask if I was interested in writing the picture book from my story, "Dancing Pants", and I tried to be all cool and say, "Oh well, I guess I could fit it in", but I would have KILLED to write that book. I had always wanted to have a book published!
I'm now waiting for the edits on Sing a Rebel Song with Omnibus Books, which is about the Shearers' Strike in Barcaldine in 1891 – this will come out in 2016. And I've just signed a contract with Omnibus for another historical novel, Lilibet and Margaret Rose, about children who came to Australia under the CORB Scheme during World War 2.
Does this look as if I'm a bit history obsessed?
I also write shorter books, fiction and non-fiction, for educational publishers, and these projects come in on a fairly regular basis. I'm currently writing one about Survival and have just finished one about the Light Horse.
A room with three filing cabinets, a large and messy desk (remember, a tidy desk is the sign of someone with not enough to do), computer, printer, bulletin board. It looks out onto the front yard, so I can keep an eye on the scrub turkey who spent all summer digging up the yard and building an enormous mound.
There really aren't any typical days. I'm lucky in that I write full time, so I can be flexible. I do school visits, so that takes time. I love doing research, so that involves trips to libraries (and even, recently, to Barcaldine to check out old Cobb & Co routes and way stations). Deadlines are the biggest routine-imposers. Educational publishers work to tight deadlines, so when I have work for one of them, it's head down.
I write a lot of history, and non-fiction, so first it's the research, then discover the story, outline it (I'm definitely, absolutely a plotter, not a pantser), more research, first draft, read it over, push it about, hand it to my trusty first-draft guineapigs, change it, second draft etc etc.
Well, I wouldn't do it if I wasn't being paid … but seriously, folks, I've never thought of not doing it. There's always another story that needs to be told.
Ideas come from everywhere. You trip over them. Anything that makes you say "that's interesting" and then "what if?" can be the inspiration for a story.
Getting the backside on the chair and not getting up until something's been accomplished.
Jane Austen. Dodie Smith. Catherine Jinks. Jude Rossell. And Allison Rushby, of course!
So many … Samantha Wheeler. Christine Bongers. Karen Foxlee. Kelly Gardiner. Jesse Blackadder.

After the number of infections decreased, has the Corona pandemic ended...
Saudi Arabia Wednesday 15th September 2021 07:51 AM REPORT
People's awareness and commitment to precautionary decisions contributed to the decline in the epidemiological index
Infectious Diseases Consultant Dr. Nizar Bahbari confirmed that there is interest from society and those managing the pandemic health crisis in wearing masks, adhering to social distancing and taking vaccinations, stressing that people's awareness and commitment to precautionary decisions contributed very significantly to the decline in the epidemiological index and the preparation of injuries.
This came after the amazing decline in the number of daily Corona virus infections at last, as it raised questions: Is the pandemic over in Saudi Arabia? A question raised by the fourth broadcast of Al-Arabiya channel.
Bahabri stressed that the numbers of Corona injuries in Saudi Arabia are real, and pointed out the importance of preparing and accepting any rise again in injuries and cases at any time, and called for coexistence with the virus and preached by saying, "We are on our gradual path to a normal life."
And the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Health, Dr. Abdullah Asiri, attributed the amazing decline of Covid after Fadlallah to not rushing to open high-risk activities and using the three most effective vaccines, noting in a tweet to him via his Twitter account that the spread of Delta coincided with the acceleration of immunization with the second dose, preventing waves from occurring. We're not out yet, but we're just around the corner.
Today, the Ministry of Health announced the registration of 96 new cases of the new Corona virus (Covid-19), bringing the total to 546,163 cases.
The ministry said that 46 new cases of recovery were recorded, bringing the total to 535,190 cases. The Ministry of Health confirmed that 5 new deaths were recorded, bringing the total to 8,633 deaths, and the ministry revealed that the number of active cases reached 2,340, and the critical cases were 459.
After the number of infections decreased, has the Corona pandemic ended in the Kingdom? expert answer
Abdul Hakim Shar
The Undersecretary of the Ministry of Health, Dr. Abdullah Asiri, had attributed the staggering decline of Covid after Fadlallah to not rushing to open high-risk activities and using the three most effective vaccines, noting in a tweet to him via his Twitter account that the spread of Delta coincided with the acceleration of immunization with the second dose, preventing the occurrence of waves. We're not out yet, but we're just around the corner.
September 14, 2021 – Safar 7, 1443
Infectious Diseases Consultant Dr. Nizar Bahbri confirmed that there is interest from society and those managing the pandemic health crisis in wearing masks, adhering to social distancing and the demand for vaccinations, stressing that people's awareness and commitment to precautionary decisions contributed very significantly to the decline in the epidemiological index and the preparation of injuries.

According to Law 5, the referee 'allows play to continue when the team against which an offense has been committed will benefit from such an advantage' yet in ATR, 5.6 it states that the rule applies only to those offenses listed in law 12. It seems clear to me that the LOTG say that advantage applies when any offense has occurred. So why don't we give advantage on offside calls? The laws should trump ATR. Any insight here would be great. And, no, I don't apply advantage in such an instance. Also, any idea when the new ATR will be posted on US Soccer web site?
The answer to this question lies at the feet of the current US Soccer Manager of Referee Development and Education. I have asked this question before and it comes down to that's the way he views it.
As to why we don't play advantage on offside decisions is simple, the offside offence didn't happen if the defence is in full control and begins an attack.
Changes to the ATR are being worked at this time. When you'll see it I don't know but it will not be before 1 July.
The USSF answer is that where IFAB uses the word advantage other than in Law 12, they really don't mean Advantage. Instead, the USSF says that the offense should be considered trifling.

Q: css border: 1px appear as 0.667px or 1px depending on the computer / display resolution (?) This is weird. I am testing the same web application (Chrome embedded in Electron) and I have two exact copies in 2 computers, both windows 10, one with a 1080p display and the other with a 4K display (this should be irrelevant, I guess it is EDIT: now I'm start thinking this is the problem).
However, when I run the application in both sites I see a difference I cannot explain and I don't know how to fix, apart from not using the border parameter.
The problem is that by using border: 1px solid #000 in a circle or square, in one computer it computes as 1px, and in the other as 0.667px.
Why on earth is this happening?
EDIT: I can see that this happens to any border that I try. And I can see that if I put 2px, then it computes as 2px, but anything in 1px computes as 0.667px in the 4K-computer
EDIT2: The same with em, an em of 0.2 computes as 2px, and of 0.1 computes as 0.667px. From 0.132 and 0.133 em it jumps from 0.667 to 1.333 px computed, it is impossible to get 1px (!!)

Left -> the lines are not aligned since the squares with the border don't add 2px but 0.667x2 (computer 1)
Right -> the lines are aligned since the border computes as 2px (computer 2)
And below you can see the Chrome developed console info

A: I'm struggling to find any definitive information on this but I am fairly confident about why this happens.
A 4K screen has such a high pixel density that Chromium is scaling the elements on the page up so that they do not look tiny on the 4K screen. In this case it appears to be using a scaling factor of 1.5. This is clear from your screenshots: both the text and boxes appear about 1.5x larger on the 4K screen.
So why does the 1px border not scale up to 1.5px too? Because it wouldn't look crisp. There seems to be an assumption that when you specify a 1px border, what you really want is the smallest border supported by the screen, so you still get 1px on a 4K screen, and thus it still looks sharp.
Chromium scales for high DPI transparently, so that in the web inspector you still see the original CSS values. So although your 10px font-size is now really being rendered as 15px, it still shows as 10px in the inspector. To show you that the border has not been scaled up, the 1px is divided by 1.5, giving 0.667px.
This behaviour strikes me as sensible, but as a side effect it messes up your positioning. Here are a couple of possible workarounds:

*

*Add a 1px border to all the boxes, making the border the same colour as the box where no black border is desired. This will ensure they all line up.

*Use box-sizing: border-box so that the specified width and height of the boxes includes the border. The default value (content-box) adds the border outside of the specified box size, which is why you currently have an alignment problem.

A: Why don't you use @media screen and adapt to your necessity?
@media screen and (min-width: 2160px) {border:?

Surprisingly there is a couple of game playing secrets realistically work. You've probably heard of several that are not all they are cut out being, but with the most recent bitcoin casinos evolution of live online Btc Gambling now you can get the most from the very same techniques that may are employed in actual casinos.
Credit card counting is a method To provide oneself an edge up against the casino at the bet on blackjack. This can be statistically which may operate, although a few casinos now have techniques set up to avoid gamers benefiting from the. The idea of card keeping track of is to keep track of which credit cards have been dealt out and utilize and when the package has lots associated with face cards left within (10, Ports, Queens, Kings) the player gamble longer, since there's much more prospect associated with winning.
To produce this perform the Player must spend time exploring a good greeting card counting book (there are many from which to choose) and training the methods inside training carry out in the online casinos (or perhaps using a pal as the dealer ).
Card keeping track of will Give the participant a benefit, but isn't a promise in order to win. Speaking to traders I have discovered that several gamers are regulars using credit card counting they are going to always gamble the minimum and after a little while they'll increase their bet and also normally acquire.
Many fly by night Sales people will attempt to provide you blackjack techniques that don't have a chance in heck of working. The good news is making use of all the reside online casinos, so you are able to spend some time in practice setting searching for a prejudice at the tyre. Live wheels do sometimes have a tendency that will enable one to gain for a while, though you might have to monitor the particular wheel for around 5000 spins. You can accomplish it in training mode. Be careful that the casino can transform the tyre.


Hard-earned free time is difficult to come by in most people's busy schedules. When you do have a few coveted hours or days of freedom, it's important to spend that time as wisely as you can. The key to making the most of your free time is to research your options carefully before you settle on your agenda.
Are you filling a few hours in the afternoon or spending an entire week off work? If you're limited to a shorter time span, you might get the best returns when you invest your time in home-based pursuits. Proper research here will save you from online scams that will promise perks you never receive and may outright steal your funds.
If you have a longer stretch of time for your escape, consider planning a vacation to one of the world's top tourist destinations. Known for their entertainment venues, locations such as Belgium, Cyprus, and the Netherlands offer dozens of choices to help you fill your day, from museums to sports stadiums to amusement parks.
What are the world's most entertaining countries and cities? We've scoured the world, collecting data about fun places, sites and activities to find the destinations where you're guaranteed to have a great time.
The number one country for culture, the Netherlands boast a huge array of museums, galleries and concert halls to visit, and have produced such talents as Rembrandt, van Gogh, and Vermeer.
An island in the Mediterranean sea, Cyprus was not overlooked in terms of the flow of culture in the region and has 188 sites of national attraction.
Despite its relatively small size, Belgium packs a punch in terms of culture. The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium in Brussels includes a cinema, a concert hall, and artworks of many different periods.
From concert halls and art galleries to Michelin Star restaurants and UNESCO World Heritage Sites, there's a lot to explore across the United Kingdom.
With the second highest number of amusement and water parks, Germany has plenty of fun to throw yourself into. Its capital, Berlin, is also a well-renowned cultural hub.
The Irish National holiday, St Patrick's Day, has come to be celebrated in many countries around the world, as well as the iconic figure of the leprechaun from Irish folklore.
The Italians are spoiled with culture at every turn, especially in Rome where there are countless attractions to choose from. And not forgetting the iconic Italian cuisine!
Portugal is home to 15 UNESCO World Heritage sites, and international-scale venues in Lisbon, Porto, and Braga in which to see theatre, music and modern art.
The Eastern culture here feels like a far cry from more typical Western tourist destinations, and many visitors are fascinated by the architecture, food, and way of life there.
Since the word 'culture' derives from French, it is no surprise that this country is laden with national attractions and places of interest, and not just in Paris.
There's more to Greece than just the beach! Its culture has evolved over thousands of years and is widely considered to be the birthplace of all Western culture.
Perhaps surprisingly, Poland has the highest number of national attractions, from underground salt mines to historic town squares.
Through a history of conquering and being conquered, Spain has acquired a tremendous amount of culture. From flamenco music to fantastic beaches, the Spanish lifestyle is one to envy.
Despite being a relatively 'new' country, America has more than earned its cultural status with a huge range of activities to do and see, including hundreds of sports stadiums and thousands of museums.
Turkey is a popular Summer destination amongst tourists thanks to its incredible weather, but what is often overlooked is the unique culture of this country, borne out of their blend of Eastern and Western influences.
The country has a huge array of attractions such as amusement and water parks.
The colorful culture of Morocco attracts thousands of visitors each year, who want to experience spice markets and the heat of the Sahara desert among many other things.
Home of the likes of the artist Frida Kahlo and the filmmaker Luis Buñuel, Mexico boasts an incredibly rich and complex culture.
Despite being such a vast country, China still manages to invest in entertainment for locals and tourists alike, with the second highest number of attractions per capita (after Mexico).
Influential on global literature, philosophy, classical music, ballet, and numerous other areas, in many ways Russian culture is unparalleled in its originality and creativity.
The number of bars, clubs & restaurants, amusement and water parks, theatres, cinemas, live performances, sports stadiums, museums, festivals, gigs per month and other entertainment indicators were taken into consideration to compile this list.
The destinations in the study have been identified as the top locations which people travel to. The number of amenities was then calculated based on how many there were per square km of the destination. The destination was then allocated a score of between 0 to 10 based on its comparison to the other destinations. They then calculated an overall score to rank the destinations.

Here Comes Hortense!
By Heather Hartt-Sussman
Illustrated by Georgia Graham
The feisty, irrepressible Nana we met in Nana's Getting Married is back. And what could be more fun for a six-year-old than having your nana and her new husband take you to a theme park? But the fun is spoiled when Nana and Bob announce that they've planned a surprise: The three of them will be joined by Bob's granddaughter, Hortense. It turns out to be the worst surprise ever. Nana shares her room with Hortense instead of her disgruntled little grandson. She sings her special good-night song to Hortense. She goes on all the scary rides with Hortense. And, worst of all, Hortense has a special name for Nana. A perceptive and hilarious exploration of rivalry, there's a gentle lesson within this story, for readers, young and old alike.
JoJo the Giant
By Jane Barclay
Illustrated by Esperança Melo
Children are eager to grow bigger, and JoJo is no exception. He always asks his mother the same question: "How much did I grow today?"

Written and illustrated by Kevin Sylvester
Cindy Winters loves to play hockey. When her family's basement apartment is flooded and the floor freezes, she's delighted to skate on the frozen concrete. Her parents are too poor to enroll her in a hockey league but Cindy's resourceful and does odd jobs until she earns enough money to join a team. Armed with her mother's old equipment, she is thrilled with the prospect of playing on a real life hockey team. But her happiness doesn't last long. Among her teammates are the horrible "Blister Sisters." They make Cindy's life miserable. And worst of all, she's sidelined by the coach, who just happens to be Mrs. Blister. It looks like she'll be spending the season cleaning equipment, instead of on the ice. Cindy's luck changes when her Fairy Goaltender appears and saves the day. With its great humour and hilarious illustrations, Kevin Sylvester's Splinters is bound to become a favourite.
Silver Birch® Fiction Nominee:
A Tinfoil Sky
By Cyndi Sand-Eveland
Hardcover | 224 Pages
Mel and her mother, Cecily, know what it's like to live rough, whether it's on the streets or in an abusive man's apartment.

Mel begins to dream of security, a comfortable bed, and a grandmother's love, and these dreams seem to be about to come true. But some mistakes cannot be easily forgiven or erased. Her grandmother is not what Mel expects, and though the local library offers sanctuary, a real home seems to be beyond her grasp. However Mel's determination to rise above what fate has dealt her is about to change that. Cyndi Sand-Eveland's work with homeless youth gives her characters an authenticity no reader will forget. Ultimately, a story of hope and acceptance, A Tinfoil Sky is a powerful and captivating novel.
Silver Birch® Express Nominees:
In The Bag! Margaret Knight Wraps It Up
By Monica Kulling
Tundra's Great Idea Series is comprised of biographies of inventors for early readers. The third book in the series introduces the fascinating Margaret Knight. Known as Mattie, she was different from most American girls living in 1850. She loved to make things with wood and made the best kites and sleds in town. Her father died when she was only three, and by the time she was twelve, she was working at the local cotton mill alongside her two older brothers. One day, she saw a worker get injured by a shuttle that had come loose from the giant loom, and the accident inspired her to invent a stop-motion device. It was the first of her many inventions. Margaret Knight devoted her life to inventing, and is best known for the clever, practical, paper bag. When she died in 1914, she had ninety inventions to her name and over twenty patents, astounding accomplishments for a woman of her day. Monica Kulling's easy-to-read text, peppered with lots of dialogue, brings an amazing, inspiring woman to life.
Who Needs a Swamp?
Written and illustrated by Karen Patkau
Tundra introduces the first three books in its important new ecosystems series. Each title celebrates the world's diversity by presenting a different ecosystem: its land and water, its animals and plants. The art is brimming with creatures and ecological features, described in fact-filled notes at the end of each book and in a useful glossary and map. Swamps are often seen as a dangerous and useless. They are often drained to create farmland or to reduce diseases. But such measures can be disastrous. Who Needs a Swamp? explores wetlands and their importance in the food chain and in preserving our soil and clean water. Not only is each book informative and beautiful, but it is a call to action for everybody who cares about the world in which we live.
Red Maple™ Fiction Nominees
The Dragon Turn: The Boy Sherlock Holmes, His 5th Case
By Shane Peacock
Summer 1869, and Sherlock Holmes and his friend Irene celebrate her sixteenth birthday by attending the theater to watch a celebrated magician make a real dragon appear on stage. It is the London sensation. Sherlock and Irene meet the magician, Alistair Hemsworth – just as he is arrested for the murder of his rival, The Wizard of Nottingham. It seems that traces of the missing Wizard's blood and his spectacles were found in Hemsworth's secret studio. Hemsworth has a motive: not only is the Wizard his rival, but he also caused a scandal when he lured Hemsworth's wife away. But is Hemsworth guilty? Sherlock has his doubts, and soon, so does the reader. With humor and plot turns as dizzying as a narrow London lane, Shane Peacock invites his readers into a fascinating world, and a fresh adventure with one of literature's favorite characters. The Boy Sherlock Holmes series is an international success with readers and reviewers alike.
First Descent
By Pam Withers
Montana-born Rex loves nothing more than to take his kayak out on a river, the faster and more powerful the better. When he gets the opportunity to tackle the well-named El Furioso in southwest Colombia, he is thrilled. He anticipates the river's challenges, but finds himself in a situation where the real danger is human. In Colombia, he meets Myriam Calambás, an indígena, who has lived along the El Furioso all her life. Though she loves its rushing waters, she dreams of leaving to get an education so that she can help her people. Her dreams, and her very survival, are in the balance when she and Rex are caught up in the clash between paramilitaries, working for rich landowners, and guerrillas who are supposed to be protecting the poor. Pam Withers' skill at writing about extreme adventures combines with a compelling story about an endangered world and a people struggling for their very right to exist.

Cube Book

Board Books | 48 pages | Ages 4-7
"The Cube Book by Jessica Bruin is a fun way to learn about endangered animals.

You can join the books together to form a puzzle panel, or create a cube…." – The Calgary Sun
Who Will Save My Planet?
By Cristina Urrutia
Hardcover | 32 pages | Ages 7+
"Each double-page spread in this thought-provoking book pairs photos of similar subjects, letting viewers study the differences and draw their own conclusions…. Apart from the title, the book is wordless, but the environmental message is abundantly clear … the book has potential for classroom units on the environment." – Booklist
Going Ape!
By Eduardo Bustos
Illustrated by Lucho Rodriguez
There are more than 200 species of primates in the world. Going Ape! is a wonderful introduction to some of the most fascinating ones for children just discovering the world of animals. From Japan's macaques to Africa's gorillas, brilliant images and brief, informative text will capture the imagination of young children.
Creatures Great and Small
By Karen Patkau
Paperback | 32 pages | Ages 6-9
"Creatures Great and Small is a book that uses every possible surface to inform and impress the reader. While author/illustrator Karen Patkau writes in short, simple sentences, her vocabulary is often rich an descriptive. Given that making comparisons is part of school curriculum and proper pedagogy, this book is a good resource to support both." – Quill & Quire
Creatures Yesterday and Today
"…the amazing science will engage dinosaur fans with the wonder of evolution and the evidence of fossils. A time chart and a world map showing the distribution of the prehistoric creatures and fossils wrap up the text, which will be wonderful for beginning classroom science discussions." – Booklist
Hardcover | 32 pages | Ages 7-10
"Karen Patkau provides 'just enough' clear information on each double page spread to keep her readers interested and moving forward. She fills her collages with intense color and abundance to show a coherent view of this ecosystem and its many inhabitants. We become aware of the wildlife in her vivid descriptions of the sounds and sights in the swamp and through her carefully constructed artwork. The constantly changing page designs encourage her audience to search carefully through the text for clues to what is happening in the art, and the art is filled with details that have the child's eyes searching for each new and delightful discovery." – Sal's Fiction Addiction
Who Needs an Iceberg?
"Nonfiction picture books are not nearly as common as they once were, but author and illustrator Karen Patkau proves that the genre is not dead. Her beautiful illustrations and maps present information in an easy to understand format for young readers…. Each book includes simple text for beginning nonfiction readers supported by detailed illustrations of the plant and animal life in each ecosystem…. All of the books in this series contain valuable information supported with illustrations that help young readers understand the content. The message in each is clear. We need to care about these different ecosystems." – Highly Recommended, CM Magazine
Who Needs a Jungle?
"…Patkau offers a series of vibrant scenes … striking illustrations. The text both interprets the visual content … and offers paragraphs of diverse facts." – Booklist
Tuesdays with Tundra 17
Tuesdays with Tundra is a monthly post on our new releases. The following books are available today in stores and online! Do you see the environmental theme this month? It's all about the love for our planet this Valentine's Day:
A glossary, map endpapers, and handy charts – introducing the concepts of scale and proportion by comparing measurements of animals that are "Big" and "Really Big" to "Small" and "Really Small" – make this book a must-have for parents, schools, and libraries alike.
Captivating text in the voices of the animals themselves is complemented by the vibrant illustrations, map endpapers, glossary, geological time line, and chart of the history of life, making this fact-filled book a welcome addition to any home or school library, where a budding scientist can happily explore.
Jungles are treasures for all of us, regardless of where we live. In Who Needs a Jungle? we learn about its vital role in providing us with oxygen, food, medicinal ingredients, and raw materials we use every day.
Swamps are often seen as a dangerous and useless. They are often drained to create farmland or to reduce diseases. But such measures can be disastrous. Who Needs a Swamp? explores wetlands and their importance in the food chain and in preserving our soil and clean water.
Who Needs an Iceberg? The Arctic ecosystem is changing rapidly. The Arctic Ice Cap is melting, the habitat for the creatures that live in the north is shrinking, and the earth is warming up. The impact is enormous for all of us.
This unique and powerful wordless book uses striking photos to show the impact of humans on the environment. Each provocative image speaks volumes. On every spread we are shown a treasure that nature has given us beside a picture of how we've abused that treasure. It would take thousands of words to express the important environmental message presented by Cristina Urrutia.

One of the first things we like to do when visiting a new country is take a food tour. Foodie culture and travel go hand-in-hand, and food tours are the ultimate combination of both. Plus, if your tour guide is worth his or her salt, you'll learn about your host country's history and culture, too.
My advice? Take the food tour early on in your stay: the tour will introduce you to a variety of different local foods and delicacies (many of which may not otherwise have been on your radar), and if you really love a dish or a restaurant, you can make plans to return!
We chose Foods of Copenhagen based on their impeccable online reviews and their beautiful website (the food photography on there is just gorgeous, seriously! Go check it out, I'll wait!). The website promised a 4-hour walking tour with no more than 8 guests and 6-7 food stops covering about 3 miles: sounded perfect, but we were a little worried that a toddler wouldn't be allowed. Foods of Copenhagen assured us that it would be fine to bring her along on the group tour, so we prepaid online (it was 950dkk per person, about $145 each) and were good to go.
We met our friendly tour guide, Fie, in the city center area. Our first stop was to try smørrebrød - traditional Danish open-faced sandwiches with rye bread and lard. There were all kinds of toppings to choose from (including curry herring and eggs), but my favorite were the pork and veal meatballs and the pickled cucumber. We also tried a traditional liquor ("snaps") that warmed me up right away. Yowza!
Smørrebrød in a traditional Danish restaurant.
Our next stop was to Sankt Peter's Bageri to try Viennese danish. These sweet treats would be the perfect way to start the day, but I honestly never would have tried them if Fie hadn't steered us into this adorable pastry shop.
Fie explained that although Americans call these pastries "danish," they're actually from Vienna (Austria).
The Torvelhallerne food hall is a must-stop. Torvelhallerne has it all: breads, meat, cheese, cookware, alcohol, sweets, and flowers (like the gorgeous dahlias my husband bought for me after the tour). It's also in the middle of the city, so we ended up going back there on three more days.
After leaving the food hall, we crossed a bridge over the Copenhagen lakes to get to the neighborhood of Nørrebro: a millenial hipster's dream come true.
Our first stop was a little shop selling sparkling cider. It's the new, hip thing, and unlike a lot of ciders on U.S. menus, these aren't sweet at all. Plus, you have to give them props for this fun label.
Our stop at BRUS was one of my favorites. And seriously. Look how gorgeous this brewery-restaurant space is.
We had Korean chicken, beer, a broccoli dish, and fermented fries. Everything was so delicious and so perfectly bar-foodie that it made me wish there was a football game on tv.
Another fave? Grod. Similar to Chinese/Hawaii jook, grod is anything boiled to a mushy texture. We tried the pea risotto (bottom left) during the food tour and went back to a different location to try their chicken congee (right). Such good comfort food!
We also tried some foods and made stops not pictured here (I wanted to share highlights without giving up their whole gig!) — and the tour was overall fantastic.
If you're ever in Copenhagen, try to book a culinary tour with Foods of Copenhagen. Our guide Fie was terrific, and we got a great introduction to Danish cuisine and the city of Copenhagen. Five stars!

Q: How to export polyline layer from Yandex Maps I am interested in exporting a polyline layer(s) of Moscow bike routes from Yandex maps.  The layer does not belong to me but it is open to public use.  I would prefer a KML, but just getting the coordinates in usable shape would be great.  The coordinates seem to be embedded in the source code but I don't know to reshape that easily into a list of coordinates in .csv format  which can then be mapped in QGIS.
https://maps.yandex.ru/213/moscow/?z=11&ll=37.500488%2C55.732220&l=map&origin=jsapi_2_1_34&from=api-maps&um=constructor%3AZ4zDPV2057F7o6aqu4WkQXKpLoiHO9i2

A: This can be done using the coordinates from the source:

*

*copy & paste into notepad++

*make into columns (replace [ with /n)

*remove ], with none. load x,y into qgis (create layer from a
delimited text file)

*create a point file

*use point2one plugin to create lines

*repeat for the other coordinates

The Modulating Role of Sex and Anabolic-Androgenic Steroid Hormones in Cannabinoid Sensitivity
Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit drug worldwide and its use is associated with multiple adverse health effect including the risk of addiction. Identifying factors involved in cannabis use and abuse is critical for optimizing evidence-based prevention and treatment protocols. Similarly to other drugs of abuse, the prevalence of cannabis use and addiction differs between males and females, suggesting that sex is an important modulator of cannabinoid sensitivity. Accumulating evidence shows that the endocannabinoid system is sexually dimorphic and that sex hormones play a key role. Hormone-driven differentiation of the endocannabinoid system seems to provide a biological basis for sex differences in endocannabinoid-related behaviors, including reward-related behaviors. While sex differences in cannabinoid action are being increasingly studied in animals, controlled human studies are still limited. The endocannabinoid system is, for its intrinsic characteristics, a privileged target of the actions of both sex and anabolic-androgenic steroid hormones at different levels and, in turn, it can modulate the activity of sex hormones (Table 1). The observation that exposure to AAS causes dysfunction of the brain reward pathway in rats points to a potential risk factor for initiation of cannabis use, maintenance of regular use and development of CUD. The cross talk between endocannabinoid signaling and steroid hormones can occur differently in males and females, and many questions about underlying mechanisms remain unanswered, demanding further research in the field in an attempt to elucidate the basis of the sex differences often observed in cannabinoid sensitivity.
Low Dose Cannabinoid Consumption Causes DNA Damage
Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabidivarin (CBDV) are natural cannabinoids which are consumed in increasing amounts worldwide in cannabis extracts, as they prevent epilepsy, anxiety, and seizures. It was claimed that they may be useful in cancer therapy and have anti-inflammatory properties. Adverse long-term effects of these drugs (induction of cancer and infertility) which are related to damage of the genetic material have not been investigated. Therefore, we studied their DNA-damaging properties in human-derived cell lines under conditions which reflect the exposure of consumers. Both compounds induced
DNA damage in single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) experiments in a human liver cell line (HepG2) and in buccal-derived cells (TR146) at low levels (≥ 0.2 μM). Results of micronucleus (MN) cytome assays showed that the damage leads to formation of MNi which reflect chromosomal aberrations and leads to nuclear buds and bridges which are a consequence of gene amplifications and dicentric chromosomes. Additional experiments indicate that these effects are caused by oxidative base damage and that liver enzymes (S9) increase the genotoxic activity of both compounds.
Our findings show that low concentrations of CBD and CBDV cause damage of the genetic material in human-derived cells. Furthermore, earlier studies showed that they cause chromosomal aberrations and MN in bone marrow of mice.
Fixation of damage of the DNA in the form of chromosomal damage is generally considered to be essential in the multistep process of malignancy, therefore the currently available data are indicative for potential carcinogenic properties of the cannabinoids.
Effects of prenatal marijuana exposure on neuropsychological outcomes in children aged 1-11 years: A systematic review
Conclusions: The larger number of neuropsychological domains that exhibit decreased versus increased psychological and behavioural functions suggests that exposure to marijuana may be harmful for brain development and function.
Cannabis and cannabinoids for the treatment of people with chronic noncancer pain conditions: a systematic review and meta-analysis of controlled and observational studies
PAIN: October 2018 - Volume 159 - Issue 10 - p 1932–1954
doi: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000001293
This review examines evidence for the effectiveness of cannabinoids in chronic noncancer pain (CNCP) and addresses gaps in the literature by: considering differences in outcomes based on cannabinoid type and specific CNCP condition; including all study designs; and following IMMPACT guidelines. MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, CENTRAL, and clinicaltrials.gov were searched in July 2017.
Analyses were conducted using Revman 5.3 and Stata 15.0. A total of 91 publications containing 104 studies were eligible (n = 9958 participants), including 47 randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and 57 observational studies. Forty-eight studies examined neuropathic pain, 7 studies examined fibromyalgia, 1 rheumatoid arthritis, and 48 other CNCP (13 multiple sclerosis–related pain, 6 visceral pain, and 29 samples with mixed or undefined CNCP).
Across RCTs, pooled event rates (PERs) for 30% reduction in pain were 29.0% (cannabinoids) vs 25.9% (placebo); significant effect for cannabinoids was found; number needed to treat to benefit was 24 (95% confidence interval [CI] 15-61); for 50% reduction in pain, PERs were 18.2% vs 14.4%; no significant difference was observed. Pooled change in pain intensity (standardised mean difference: −0.14, 95% CI −0.20 to −0.08) was equivalent to a 3 mm reduction on a 100 mm visual analogue scale greater than placebo groups. In RCTs, PERs for all-cause adverse events were 81.2% vs 66.2%; number needed to treat to harm: 6 (95% CI 5-8).
There were no significant impacts on physical or emotional functioning, and low-quality evidence of improved sleep and patient global impression of change. Evidence for effectiveness of cannabinoids in CNCP is limited. Effects suggest that number needed to treat to benefit is high, and number needed to treat to harm is low, with limited impact on other domains. It seems unlikely that cannabinoids are highly effective medicines for CNCP.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of cannabinoids in palliative medicine
We provide a systematic review and meta-analysis on the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of cannabinoids in palliative medicine. The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus, and http://clinicaltrials.gov, and a selection of cancer journals were searched up until 15th of March 2017. Of the 108 screened studies, nine studies with a total of 1561 participants were included. Overall, the nine studies were at moderate risk of bias. The quality of evidence comparing cannabinoids with placebo was rated according to Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation as low or very low because of indirectness, imprecision, and potential reporting bias.
In cancer patients, there were no significant differences between cannabinoids and placebo for improving caloric intake (standardized mean differences [SMD]: 0.2 95% confidence interval [CI]: [-0.66, 1.06] P = 0.65), appetite (SMD: 0.81 95% CI: [-1.14, 2.75]; P = 0.42), nausea/vomiting (SMD: 0.21 [-0.10, 0.52] P = 0.19), >30% decrease in pain (risk differences [RD]: 0.07 95% CI: [-0.01, 0.16]; P = 0.07), or sleep problems (SMD: -0.09 95% CI: [-0.62, 0.43] P = 0.72). In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients, cannabinoids were superior to placebo for weight gain (SMD: 0.57 [0.22; 0.92]; P = 0.001) and appetite (SMD: 0.57 [0.11; 1.03]; P = 0.02) but not for nausea/vomiting (SMD: 0.20 [-0.15, 0.54]; P = 0.26).
Regarding side effects in cancer patients, there were no differences between cannabinoids and placebo in symptoms of dizziness (RD: 0.03 [-0.02; 0.08]; P = 0.23) or poor mental health (RD: -0.01 [-0.04; 0.03]; P = 0.69), whereas in HIV patients, there was a significant increase in mental health symptoms (RD: 0.05 [0.00; 0.11]; P = 0.05).
Tolerability (measured by the number of withdrawals because of adverse events) did not differ significantly in cancer (RD: 1.15 [0.80; 1.66]; P = 0.46) and HIV patients (RD: 1.87 [0.60; 5.84]; P = 0.28). Safety did not differ in cancer (RD: 1.12 [0.86; 1.46]; P = 0.39) or HIV patients (4.51 [0.54; 37.45]; P = 0.32) although there was large uncertainty about the latter reflected in the width of the CI. In one moderate quality study of 469 cancer patients with cancer-associated anorexia, megestrol was superior to cannabinoids in improving appetite, producing >10% weight gain and tolerability. In another study comparing megestrol to dronabinol in HIV patients, megestrol treatment led to higher weight gain without any differences in tolerability and safety.
We found no convincing, unbiased, high quality evidence suggesting that cannabinoids are of value for anorexia or cachexia in cancer or HIV patients.


Read at the memorial meeting held in honor of Brigham Young and Joseph Young, under the auspices of the Woman's Committee of the Genealogical Society of Utah, June 1, 1914.
Joseph Young was born April 7, 1797, in the little town of Hopkinton, Mass. His father was John Young, a soldier of the Revolution, and his mother was Nabbie Howe. Both his father and mother were of well educated and highly cultured parentage, characteristics of which they bequeathed to all their children. Reared as Joseph was in the atmosphere of the wilderness, he ever had a devotion for trees and woods, flowers and streams. In those days, the villages and towns of New England were extremely puritanic. Church services on the Sabbath day were regularly attended, and during the week, the children were taught to walk aright by strict discipline and admonition. Joseph with his brothers knew a splendid training. When but a lad, he learned to paint and glaze, and earned here and there some little money to help keep the family larder.
The family were Methodists. Joseph became an itinerant preacher, often traveling for miles through the forests to carry cheer and a Gospel message to some poor soul. With his brothers, Brigham and Phineas, he became known far and wide for his sweet singing of the Wesleyan hymns. In 1832, the family moved to Kirtland, Ohio. Joseph had already been baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Caiuga Lake, New York. On arriving in Kirtland, he met the Prophet Joseph Smith, from whom he gained a greater knowledge of the Gospel message. In 1834, at the request of the prophet, Joseph, with his brother Brigham, went to Zion's Camp in Missouri. During [p. 106] the following February occurred one of the events that was to help bring about the perfect organization of the Church. The prophet had called Brigham and Joseph Young to his private room one morning and there made known to them his intention of organizing the quorum of the Twelve Apostles and the first quorum of Seventy. Turning to Brigham, he instructed him to notify all the nearby branches of the Church to meet in Kirtland two weeks from that date. "At which time," said he, "I shall choose and ordain the Twelve Apostles, and you, Brother Brigham, will be one of them." Turning then to Joseph, the prophet said: "Brother Joseph, the Lord has made you president of all the Seventy." At first it was obscure to Joseph as to what it all meant, but time solved the problem, and during the period of forty-six years, he presided over all the Seventy of the Church.
In 1838, Joseph left Kirtland and traveled to Missouri on his way to Far West with his wife and children. He had married Jane Bicknell in Kirtland during the spring of 1834. On his way he was stopped with other Saints by Missourians at Haun's Mill, where he witnessed, with his wife, the terrible massacre of that place, and on the following day helped to bury the eighteen brethren that were killed.
In the travels of the Youngs westward, they were accompanied by their father, John Young, who as one of the first patriarchs of the Church. In 1839, Joseph journeyed to Nauvoo with his family, stopping at Quincy on his way, however, to bury his father, whose grave remains unmarked at that place. In completing the Nauvoo Temple, he was engaged in painting and glazing the building, and at the first meeting of its dedication, at the request of Brigham Young, presided.
It was now that he began the organization of the Seventy, which has grown to one hundred and eighty-six quorums. As he was a reader of breadth and understanding, his aim was to make of the Seventy the scholars of true religion, and the representatives of the best moral manhood.
In 1846, the family moved to Winter Quarters, where they lived for eighteen months in a log house and dug-out. While there, they witnessed the departure of the first company of pioneers to the West under the leadership of Brigham Young. Though poor in worldly goods, Joseph had developed a spiritual outlook on life that had already brought from his brethren the name of "beloved saint." In those days, they lived on corn-meal mush and corn bread. Joseph went far and wide preaching the Gospel of Christ and in his words and life, he won many souls to Christ. He had a natural power and magnetism that seemed to win people to a higher life.
After arriving in Salt Lake City, Joseph was furnished a small house on the spot near what is now Second South and Commercial Street. In 1856, he took up his abode in the Ellsworth House, which stood just east of the present site of the Alta Club on South Temple. Here he lived until 1872, when he moved to the Twelfth Ward, and there built a home which afterwards was occupied by the family of Henry Wagner.
During the year 1870 Joseph, with his son Seymour, went to England to preach the Gospel, and returned home in the autumn, after having completed a successful mission in England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. It was now that he continued organizing the Seventy with a zeal that knew no bounds. He traveled far and wide where the Saints had settled in Utah, Arizona, Idaho, and New Mexico. Under his direction the Seventy began the study of scriptures and history, and were urged to read and study the best of modern books. Joseph Young died in Salt Lake City, July 16, 1881, and was buried from the Tabernacle four days later. Elder Henry W. Naisbitt composed "Rest on the Hillside, Rest" for the occasion, and it was put to music by Elder George Careless. Joseph Young had six wives and was the father of twenty-two children. In all of his labors he was known as a very spiritually-minded man. Always charitable and kind, he was much beloved, and his word and look were buoyant with cheerfulness and sunshine. He was the embodiment of love, the example of faith in God, and a man of great ideals for his people. His life's dream was to have the Seventy the scholars of the Church, who should explain the Gospel far and wide. A Seventy's hall was to be built and called the "Seventy's Hall of Science." Here was to be housed the scientific, philosophic, and historical lore of the ages for the use of the brethren. While he did not live to see the fruition of his ideals, he knew that they would yet be carried out.

US regulator National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) is suing UBS for violating federal and state laws through misrepresentations in the sale of mortgage-backed securities to two credit unions that later failed.
UBS is being sued for the alleged "misrepresentation" of residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), products that are largely to blame for causing the global credit crisis, when it sold it to US Central Federal Credit Union and Western Corporate Federal Credit Union in 2006 and 2007.
According to a complaint filed by NCUA, the two unions paid $1.1bn for the securities and at the time of purchase, US Central and WesCorp "were not aware of the untrue statements or omissions of material facts" in the offering documents of the RMBS.
The regulatory filing adds that the "misrepresentations" in the offering documents led the two unions to believe that the risk of loss was "minimal", when in fact, it resulted in substantial losses.
The case against UBS is the latest in a long line of similar lawsuits by NCUA against banks including RBS, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan and Wachovia, now a unit of Wells Fargo. The regulator has, so far, settled claims worth more than $170m with HSBC, Citigroup and Deutsche Bank.
UBS faces a number of litigation issues as, like a number of other US, UK and European banks, it is currently under investigation for its alleged role in the Libor fixing scandal. Reports claim a number of employees, including Jay Merchant from the US, have left the bank on Libor-related matters.
Meanwhile Swiss prosecutors have opened a criminal money laundering probe into UBS related to a complaint accusing it of links to the proceeds of alleged illegal logging in Malaysia.
The bank has already been fined by the US for helping wealthy clients dodge US taxes in 2009.
The suit is labelled National Credit Union Administration Board VS UBS, Case No. 12-cv-02591, and was filed in the US District Court in Kansas.
