The Summer Alpine Sports Trade Exchange (SASTEX) has been created in response to the growing demand – and opportunity – for activity based holidays and to help the mountain industry better understand and shape their offerings to new markets.
The one-day event will run Thursday 2 May 2019 at The Snow Centre, Hemel Hempstead, aiming to bring together mountain resorts, tourist boards, activity providers and equipment manufacturers, alongside tour operators, travel agents, retailers and media. SASTEX founder, James Gambrill, is launching the event the day after the well-established LISTEX (London International Ski Travel Exchange) summer edition.
James Gambrill founder of SASTEX, said: "Summer holidays in the mountains have long been a 'well-kept secret' in the general holiday market, but the increasing interest in health, wellness and activity, as seen in the huge participation growth in sports such as cycling and endurance events has begun to create a wider market for Alpine Activity holidays.

RCNi Nurse Award for Professor Heather Jarman
Congratulations to Professor Heather Jarman, Consultant Nurse for Emergency Care at St George's, on winning an RCNi Nurse Award.
Our Emergency Department's Research Nursing Team nominated Professor Jarman in the Emergency Nursing Award category.
Professor Jarman secured funding and created from scratch a flourishing research unit in the emergency department at St George's Hospital in London.
Jacqueline Totterdell, Chief Executive, said: "Heather is a fantastic leader, and one of many role models within the organisation. The fact that our nurses, therapists and other healthcare professionals are so actively involved in research is brilliant, and makes me really proud.
"Well done Heather – a great achievement."
The unit has expanded to a team of four nursing whole time equivalents and a research fellow, providing cover from 8am to 10pm every day. Professor Jarman trains and mentors novice researchers, and supports consultants and nurses to enable them to become principal investigators.
Nurses have the opportunity to become active in research, recruiting patients and doing follow-ups. The unit's growing reputation has resulted in approaches from international research teams to join studies.
The RCNi Nurse Awards identify and celebrate nurses who, every day, go above and beyond to save lives, provide outstanding care for patients and transform nursing practice for the better.

For Friday: Westward the Women is an unusual and interesting film about a wagon train of mail-order brides traveling across country to meet their prospective husbands. Robert Taylor is their guide; this is one of his better late-career roles. Not many of the actresses are well-known, but they play their parts well. Some will recognize Hope Emerson in an entertaining supporting role. It's one of the better films from the last part of William Wellman's career.
I've never seen Morituri, but plan to record it. Is this the only time that roommates Marlon Brando and Wally Cox were in the same film? Yul Brynner, Trevor Howard, and Janet Margolin (Lisa from David and Lisa) also star. A friend pointed out that the cinematography is by Conrad Hall, who also shot In Cold Blood and The Professionals about this time.
I may watch the film again if I think of it. Good movie.
9:30 a.m. Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe: The Palace of Horror (1940).
10 a.m. Popeye: The Paneless Window Washer (1933).
Errol Flynn at the peak of his career, with remarkable work by director Michael Curtiz and cinematographer Sol Polito. Erich Wolfgang Korngold's musical score is one of the outstanding triumphs of the movies. If you like swashbucklers, it just doesn't get much better than this.
noon. Twentieth Century (1934). A Howard Hawks screwball comedy to rival His Girl Friday (1940).
4 a.m. L'aine des Ferchaux/Magnet of Doom (1963). I recorded this the last time it was on but still haven't seen it. Jean-Pierre Melville directs. Jean-Paul Belmondo and Charles Vanel star.
Also on March 24 at 2 AM as part of the TCM Import is Melvilles' Les Enfants Terribles.
I own the original Cocteau novella of this. It's short and a good work.
Much as I love Barrymore's divine lunacy as Oscar Jaffe in this screwball comedy, you can't understate the contribution of the balancing "sanity" that Walter Connolly and Roscoe Karnes bring to the film as Jaffe's associates.
Columbia put all of its Oscar hopes into the It Happened One Night basket this year when it came to their promotions for the awards. I've always thought it a shame that Barrymore didn't get a much deserved Oscar nod for his performance in this film. Gable is engaging and likable in the Capra film (one of his best performances, without doubt) but Barrymore is truly inspired in 20th Century.
John Barrymore from Twentieth Century is my choice for Best Actor of 1934.
Les Enfants Terribles is a winner. Great script by Cocteau, great direction by Melville.
noon. Brief Encounter (1945). Voted the most romantic film again and again in Britain. Starring two unlikely romantics, Trevor Howard and Celia Johnson.
David Lean and Trevor Howard re-united for a variation on Brief Encounter. With Ann Todd (who looks luminous in some closeups) and Claude Rains as the middle aged husband. The final 15 minutes of this understated production is involving and quite moving.
I really like David Lean's non-epic films. I loved Summertime, Brief Encounter and Blithe Spirit. I'm looking forward to seeing Madeline and The Passionate Friends.
10:15 p.m. Middle of the Night (1959). I still haven't seen this Fredric March, Kim Novak film.
George Segal night! They are all worth catching.
2:15 a.m. Loving (1970). With good support from Eva Marie Saint and Sterling Hayden.
THE PASSIONATE FRIENDS is a very subtle, but interesting film that almost demands multiple viewings. There's one particularly good ssene in the London Underground near the end of the movie.
MADELEINE Is also really good, I tried to watch it yesterday morning but my Internet kept screwing up.
I enjoyed 'David Lean Day' on TCM. I was able to catch "The Passionate Friends" (which I'd never seen before) and "Brief Encounter" (shown a lot on TCM, but I'd never seen it all the way through). Both pictures were made a couple of years apart, but I thought Trevor Howard looked rather gaunt and almost malnourished in "Brief Encounter" (at least, facially) as compared to his role in "The Passionate Friends". I loved the perspective given by Celia Johnson's character in "Encounter" and how she struggled mightily with her emotions as her chance meeting with a doctor blossomed into a friendship, then graduated to 'affair status'.
What can you say about Claude Raines? The guy was so good in just about any part he played, and his turn as the jilted husband in "The Passionate Friends" was no exception. I didn't know anything about Ann Todd until the internet came along (and TCM). The first thing I remember seeing her in was "Madeleine", and while I didn't catch it Monday as it was on too early, I've seen it before and enjoyed it. It made me want to see more of her work, as well as Ivan Desny's. In a way, Ann Todd reminds me of a British version of Eva Marie-Saint, based on looks, even though Todd had about a decade head start in her career.
I know a lot of posters here are ambivalent about "Doctor Zhivago", but it's one epic that I don't seem to tire from watching. Maybe it's because it was one of the favorite movies of a friend of mine who gave me my first radio gig more than 35 years ago. He died in 2016 at the age of 67, so every time I think of him, I think of "Doctor Zhivago", and vice versa. Overall, the acting in "Zhivago" is very good. Nobody seems to give a bad performance, and while Rod Steiger has taken a lot of flak for chewing scenery in his career, I don't think he's over-the-top here at all.
Park Row (1952) Samuel Fuller film with Gene Evans. The film times were not showing up on my web page this morning.
I saw PARK ROW when they had a SAMUEL FULLER retrospective on TCM a few years ago. It's a strange film, not great- but not bad either, and I have the feeling it probably is better the second time around.
the really weird thing about it, as i recall, is that it had not one single actor in the cast I recognized or knew from anything else EVER, which is odd, because I usually know at least one or two names, even those of esoteric supporting players.
I think the most fascinating thing about it is that, for some reason, The Special Effects A-Team at RKO got assigned to this picture and they do a damn fine job- even a quick cutaway scene where the bridge connecting the haunted house to the mainland blows up is pretty spectacular...and the eerie sounds coming from the "ghost" invoked by medium mystic PRINCE SALIANO as portrayed memorably by BELA "110%" LUGOSI dressed as NORMA DESMOND- are genuinely unsettling and creepy.
...although not as unsettling and creepy as KAY KYSER- who seems to me like BENNY GOODMAN attempting to do patois.
KARLOFF and LORRE are also "in" this- KARLOFF fleetingly and LORRE pretty regularly- he looks dangerously skinny and strung out and his bad dental work can be glimpsed...he smokes extra long Virgina Slims and seems like he is SO OVER BEING IN THIS MOVIE, which from most anyone else, I would not accept, but PETER LORRE can make even being SO OVER IT a delight to watch.
recommended in spite of the 50/50 nature of the movie, and to be fair, KYSER did have a lovely singing voice.
YOU'LL FIND OUT isn't really "about" anything, but it's just fun.
No, I meant You'll Find Out! I've seen Park Row.

If you do an AAT appeal yourself without help, there are many things to keep in mind and in this article we discuss 4 fundamental issues you need to consider.
The first thing you need to think about is whether you have any realistic prospects of success. You may wish to seek legal advice on this point. If your case has merits, it is worthwhile investing in it both money and time. On the other hand, if your case is certain to be a loser, then you may wish to reconsider whether it's worthwhile spending upwards of $1700 just in filing fees.
What was wrong with your initial visa application?
As you prepare for the AAT hearing, try and focus your attention on what the Department of Home Affairs said in its decision record about your original application. What is the visa criteria which you did not satisfy? In your appeal, you should get more evidence in relation to that criteria, rather than wasting much time on things which are not even in dispute.
As we discussed in other articles, it is crucial that when you file an appeal with the AAT, you obtain the records held by the Department of home affairs in relation to your original visa application. You may find that the Department has made mistakes when they looked at your original application, for example, they may have forgotten to take some crucial evidence into account.
If such a mistake was made, it is important to bring that to the AAT's attention. You will thereby demonstrate that you are serious about your case, you know the facts, and the department's contentions should not be accepted because their position is erroneous and not based on evidence.
Finally, remember that evidence is crucial. It is not enough to go to a hearing and make some verbal submissions about why you should be granted a visa. Whenever possible, your position should be backed up by documentary evidence. In some cases it is not possible to provide documentary evidence about a certain issue, but in such a scenario, you should at least provide an explanation as to why documentary evidence could not be obtained. Otherwise, the lack of evidence will be used against you.

Arthritis is defined as pain or stiffness in the joints, although very common is it is the natural side effect that is not well understood. Arthritis is a condition that affects people of all ages regardless of their gender race or background, it is a condition that effects over fifty million adults. There are over one hundred different types of arthritis-related conditions.
The two most common types of arthritis are Rheumatoid- a disease where the person's body attacks their joints and Osteoarthritis- a degenerative condition where a person's body attacks their joints. The body naturally responds to Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis by encouraging the body to initiate preventative inflammation measures.
CBD has shown to improve the negative effects of arthritis directly; the product reduces pain and inflammation while also slowing down the progression of the degenerative condition altogether. CBD does this by interacting with the development of your tissues which generates the inflamed responses and chronic pain.
CBD interacts with receptors in your brain and immune system which release chemical signals and stimuli in your cells which directly respond to the chronic conditions of arthritis. CBD has been proven to be effective in treating arthritis both orally and topically.
If you are looking to quickly benefit from the natural benefits of the chemical composition that CBD offers, we recommend applying a topical version of the product directly on your swollen joints for immediate relief upon the affected tissues and damaged cells.

Founder and General Overseer of God's Crown Chapel, Prophet Reindolph Oduro Gyebi, popularly known as the Eagle Prophet has predicted doom for the music industry in Ghana.
The man of God during last year's 31st night service prophesied that the country will lose one popular musician before this year ends. Eagle Prophet during the church service mentioned 'One Corner' hitmaker, Patapaa as the one he saw in his vision.
Eagle Prophet during the church program telling how Patapaa real name Justice Amoah will pass on in 2019 revealed that he will be poisoned. According to him, close friends of the music will take his life through food.
He went ahead to advise the musician to be careful with people he walks with because they are the ones plotting against him.
Aside from the death prophesy, he again said the musician will ink a deal which will yield him gargantuan amount of money.

CLEVELAND – When Goran Dragic entered Sunday's game late in the third quarter and with the Miami Heat desperately trying to hold off the Chicago Bulls, he was well rested.
The 31-year-old Dragic had played just 20 minutes, a pattern coach Erik Spoelstra has used for about the last two weeks.
The Heat's point guard and most consistent player remained on the floor for the final 13:34 and scored 14 fourth-quarter points during the Heat's 100-93 victory, their third straight win heading into Tuesday's game at Cleveland.
Pulling Dragic about six minutes into each game – and resting him for 10 to 12 in the first half – triggers the rotation Spoelstra has settled upon. Tyler Johnson replaces Dragic and James Johnson, Kelly Olynyk and Wayne Ellington all enter within the next four minutes.
"We know we have at least a good idea as to who we're going to be going in for and around what time," Tyler Johnson said. "I know for certain guys it makes a huge difference knowing who they're going to be going in there with at certain moments.
Dragic's minutes slowly were increasing and he had played five games of at least 36, which is about six more than what Spoelstra prefers. And it showed late in games as his production was declining in the second half.
So the two had a talk and Dragic suggested they get back to what worked well last year when the point guard would come out four to six minutes into the game, take a long break, and wind up with 12 to 14 first-half minutes.
The biggest issue when Dragic is out of game is who handles the ball. Spoelstra calls it a "group handle" because of the versatility of not only his reserves but also Dion Waiters, Josh Richardson and Justise Winslow.
"I'm getting more comfortable with that but we're getting much more specific on which actions we run," Spoelstra said. "We know what package of sets we're trying to get to and each set sometimes will have a different ball handler. That's okay.
Dragic admits "it feels like I'm more fresh, especially in the second half, the fourth quarter," but he is not the only one benefiting. Ellington and James Johnson also have increased their production, especially late in games. Both played the entire fourth quarter of the first two games on this road trip, as has Olynyk.
Ellington, especially has hit a groove, scoring 40 points the last two games while taking nothing but threes and shooting 11-of-17. Johnson's prints were all over the Bulls game, scoring 15 points (11 in the fourth quarter) with seven rebounds and six assists.

The Yankees would never trade Andy Pettitte for Seattle's Randy Johnson, or at least that's what they said before the left-hander's disastrous outing in a 13-7 loss to Boston at Yankee Stadium yesterday. It's an owner's prerogative to change his mind, and it's logical to assume club executives today will review all the reasons why they shouldn't trade Pettitte for Johnson.
And they will probably consider all the theories about why opponents are batting .310 against Pettitte, why his earned run average is more than a run higher than it was before this season. Pettitte gave up 8 of the 11 runs the Red Sox scored in the third inning -- the most the Yankees have allowed in one inning since July 2, 1943, when they gave up 12 in the fourth inning to the Cleveland Indians -- and lasted only two and two-thirds innings, the shortest start of his career when he wasn't knocked out by injury.
The Yankees came back from an 11-0 deficit against Pedro Martinez, briefly charging the crowd of 55,711, minimizing the ugliness of their second straight loss. But the question will linger: What's wrong with Pettitte?
''I don't know,'' Pettitte said, in earnest.
*Pettitte is distracted by family concerns. When his wife, Laura, returned to Texas weeks ago to prepare for the birth of their second child, Pettitte admitted he missed his family. He flew back to Texas last Thursday, and complications developed during the induced birth; the umbilical cord wrapped around the neck of the baby, Jared, and he lost blood before the situation was rectified. ''It was getting hairy,'' Pettitte said.
*Pettitte is hurt. When pitchers struggle for control, this is the first symptom of an injured pitcher; Pettitte's walk totals have increased by more than 50 percent this year. Two years ago, he pitched with a bad elbow, last year with a bad back. Pettitte says he is healthy, and Manager Joe Torre agrees, saying the trainers would know if the pitcher were in pain. ''I feel great,'' Pettitte said.
*Pettitte is trying too hard. Torre seems to subscribe to this theory, saying yesterday that he wishes Pettitte would relax and trust his own ability, rather than try to make the perfect pitch all the time.
*Jim Abbott 2d, which probably lingers in the minds of Yankees' officials. Abbott is left-handed, like Pettitte. He won 40 games in his first three years and was 24 years old at the end of that span; Pettitte won 42 in his first three seasons and is 25. Abbott relied on cut fastballs, a pitch that causes great strain on the shoulder, and eventually lost velocity on his fastball and was out of the game before his 29th birthday. Pettitte has relied on cut fastballs in the past and he is now struggling to get hitters out.
Pettitte shut Boston out in the first two innings, and after the game, Joe Girardi, the Yankees' catcher, said the left-hander's stuff was terrific early in the game, and blamed the defense for giving away outs. But the Red Sox hit him -- of the 70 pitches Pettitte threw, the Red Sox swung and missed a total of three times. Pettitte appears to be throwing a diminished four-seam fastball, he has struggled to throw his two-seam fastball for strikes, and his breaking ball, once a staple pitch for him, is not fooling either left-handed or right-handed batters.
Cut fastball overload? ''That's definitely not a factor,'' Pettitte said.
Whatever it is, there is developing evidence that Pettitte is dealing with something more serious than a slump. In his first three seasons, opponents batted .266 and averaged 1.3 hits and walks an inning against him. This year, they are hitting .310 and averaging 1.7 hits and walks an inning. He has a 4.88 e.r.a.; his career e.r.a. was 3.58 coming into this season.
He struck out four of the first eight batters he faced yesterday, before Jason Varitek singled with one out in the third. Pettitte walked the next hitter, gave up a single, then fell behind in the count, 1-0, to Nomar Garciaparra, prompting a visit from Mel Stottlemyre, the pitching coach. Stottlemyre went back to the dugout, and Garciaparra doubled home two runs.
Mo Vaughn hit into a fielder's choice, but the Yankees botched the play and Boston scored its third run of the inning. Then Jim Leyritz hit a chopper to third, where Scott Brosius looked to throw homeward, to Girardi, who was thinking double play and moving to back up first. By the time Brosius recovered and threw to second, the chance for a double play was late. Brosius said later that he and Girardi simply reacted differently, and neither one was necessarily right or wrong.
But the inning continued, and by the time Pettitte was relieved and Darren Holmes got the final out, he had allowed five straight batters to reach base. Eleven-oh, Boston.


ANDY MURRAY has called for changes in the tennis schedule after the Scot was left knackered by his Davis Cup exploits.
The world No.4 and Linlithgow's Colin Fleming won their singles matches yesterday to secure a 5-0 whitewash for Great Britain over Hungary at the Braehead Arena which clinches promotion to Euro/Africa Group One.
The 24-year-old said: "The schedule is messed up and they need to change it. The amount of mandatory events is the worst thing.
"When we play at the Masters events and Grand Slams, we are competing against the top players in the world every time we perform, whereas a football team aren't doing that every week.
Britain are now back in the second tier of the Davis Cup for the first time since 2009 and Wednesday's draw will pit them against potential opponents which include the Netherlands, Portugal and South Africa.
Although Murray feels that back-to-back promotion is a real possibility, he is uncertain on whether he can commit to next year's ties due to the tennis calendar.
He said: "I don't know. I will need to have a look at my schedule and see what tournaments I am going to play.
"There are matches next year we would maybe go in as favourites and there are some that we would be underdogs but I think that's our level now realistically.
Murray will now take a few days of rest in London before heading to Asia this weekend for three consecutive tournaments in Bangkok, Tokyo and Shanghai.

4 Keys to Unlocking Your Success at Work in Changing Times –
How do I get ahead at work? What will take my career to the next level? Most employees will ask themselves these questions at some point in their lives, and the answers can be elusive.
According to the latest available public survey (2019), the average person changes jobs 12 times in their lifetime. Some of these changes move us up, but others can involve a lateral move, or a switch us to a different career area altogether.
Change doesn't always equate to increased satisfaction. And, to this point, this decade has thrown us some curve balls in terms of how we work and where — which has thrown many of us off our game, shifting our career plans.
With the prevalence of remote and hybrid work, many report feeling isolated, disconnected, having difficulties finding work-life balance, encountering challenges with productivity, and having to manage DIY technology issues on top of standard workplace challenges.
And if you have a spouse or family, that's a whole other conversation! These are not trivial considerations, and they add extra obstacles when negotiating the charge up the career ladder.
What will actually cause the job success we're looking for?
Catherine Mattiske is a leading global business educator and author with 30 years of experience across industries, including banking, insurance, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and retail. She has seen and experienced major shifts in how we work and do business over the years and has developed some timeless advice and innovative tools for becoming an asset in your workplace.
"Success means different things to different people,"states Mattiske. "The realization that my definition of success is not the same as the definition my clients, colleagues, or employees would offer is part of what led me to think deeply about individual human differences and the way we think and talk about them — or don't."
Mattiske is the founder of Inner Genius, a tool which leverages an innovative algorithm to assess an individual's specific learning preference, categorizing them as one of 12 Inner Genius Archetypes and providing a key to how individuals best receive information, process knowledge, and perform tasks. It is shown to improve their ability to learn and communicate in all aspects of their life — and how best to work with others. Ms. Mattiske states:
"Knowing how you learn gets you into your Genius Zone. That is the place where you are operating effectively and efficiently plus bringing the best of yourself to your work, your team, and the organization."
The foundation for your success, then, largely depends on you being…you! Even before fully exploring how you learn, you can master aspects of your motivations, connections, and attitude that can make a difference.
So, before letting change and overwhelm cloud your goals, consider four major keys to unlocking your success at work that can supercharge your career aspirations — regardless of your work location and unique challenges:
1) Find Your Fuel —
"What fuels you?" says Catherine. "Are you doing this for the paycheck or for something more?" Finding your fuel is about discovering (or rediscovering) what you're passionate about. It could be enjoying working in a team setting, becoming one of the leaders in your field, or even buying your own home. Whatever it is, once you (re)discover that fuel, remember it each morning. Remember it while commuting home, if applicable. Reflect on it during the down times and during big successes. "Your fuel is your motivation," says Catherine. "And if it doesn't motivate you, you haven't found it yet."
2) Master Strengths/Work on Weaknesses —
"If you want to unlock your success at work, become someone who masters your strengths and works on your weaknesses," says Catherine. No matter how good you think you are at something, someone else is always better; the good news is you can learn from them! Solicit their advice, invite them to lunch, or even make them a mentor. Also, be brave enough to discover where your weaknesses are and take the time to develop them. Mastering strengths and working on weaknesses is something that many high-level performers and achievers do and is part of what Catherine calls the Growth Mindset. "Those with the Growth Mindset never stop learning, always solicit feedback from those around them, and constantly seek ways they can improve."
3) Create Connection —
Someone who creates flow, chemistry, and connection is the type of person everyone wants on their team or wants to lead their team. "When we talk to someone and come away feeling like they 'know' us or that they are 'speaking our language,' we feel immediate kinship and connection with them," says Catherine. "We may be able to do this with one or two people in our lives, but the ability to do this with everyone will take your career to the next level. I call this skill 'Genius Quotient,' and it is absolutely teachable through knowledge of learning and communication archetypes."
4) Kick Negativity In the A** —
Be positive. Think positively. Let go of negativity quickly. Not only are the abilities to be positive and smash negativity two more traits of the Growth Mindset, but a 2008 study concluded that not only is happiness often "correlated with workplace success," but it actually "often precedes measures of success" and that the "induction of positive affect leads to improved workplace outcomes." "If you want to unlock career success, train yourself to let go of the negative with ease, constantly focusing on the positive no matter the external circumstances," says Catherine.
When taking this perennial advice into account, you're armed to take positive steps in your career — regardless of what the world throws our way!

BBC National Short Story Award 2013: the result
9th October 2013 / David Hebblethwaite / 0 Comments
Last night, the 2013 BBC National Short Story Award was won by Sarah Hall for her story 'Mrs Fox.; Lucy Wood was runner-up, for 'Notes from the House Spirits'. It's a good result, I think: Hall's story, about a man whose relationship starts to break down when his wife undergoes a profound transformation (which may or may not be literal, for all the difference it makes), has a brilliant sense of wildness and mystery. I've already written about Wood's tale in my review of Diving Belles; it was one of my favourite stories in her collection.
Actually, Hall's and Wood's were two of my three favourite stories on the Award shortlist (the third was 'Barmouth', Lisa Blower's depiction of a woman's life depicted through her caravan holidays, which creates a wonderful sense of time and place, and captures the melancholy of change). Interestingly, both the first- and second-place stories make use of the fantastic to explore personal concerns and notions of change. You can still pick up a copy of the Award anthology, which I'd suggest is well worth doing.

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) – August 9, 2017: The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) today released a statement announcing the filing of an amicus brief on behalf of the American Civil Rights Union in support of Ohio's policy for removing ineligible voters (Husted v. A. Phillip Randolph Institute 16-980).
"The State of Ohio is taking full advantage of its powers outlined in federal and state law to proactively manage voter rolls," PILF President and General Counsel J. Christian Adams said. "Federal law doesn't prohibit common sense. After a registrant has failed to respond to notices and not vote in multiple elections, they may be cleaned from the rolls. The interest groups arguing otherwise are keeping voter rolls filled with dead and ineligible voters.
"A decision for Secretary of State Jon Husted keeps more tools and best practices on the table for Ohio and the more than a dozen states standing with them working to maintain voter records for an increasingly mobile electorate," Adams added.
Below is a summary of observations made in support of Ohio's voter list maintenance policies.
A copy of the brief, submitted on August 7, 2017 has been made available, here.

Fergie Plastic Surgery Before and After
Posted on June 21, 2014 by Jena	Leave a comment
Early Career and Musical Success
Stacy Ann Ferguson, professionally known as Fergie Duhamel, was born on March 27, 1975 in Hacienda Heights, California, United States to school teachers Theresa Ann and Jon Patrick Ferguson. She studied at Mesa Robles Middle School and Glen A. Wilson High School. During her academic years, she was a spelling bee champion, a Girl Scout, a cheerleader and a straight-A student.
She then started to study dance and began to do voiceover work in 1984, beginning with the television films It's Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown and Snoopy's Getting Married, Charlie Brown as Sally Brown. From 1984 to 1989, she voiced Stacy in Kids Incorporated.
She went on to become a member of the female trio Wild Orchid alongside Stefanie Ridel and fellow Kids Incorporated star Renee Sandstrom. The group eventually signed a music deal with RCA Records in 1994 after a few years of trying. Their first single "At Night I Pray" was released in September 1996. The following year, the group released their self-titled debut album, which peaked at No. 1.
In September 1998, they released their second album, Oxygen, which became a commercial disappointment, only selling 200,000 copies worldwide. Though the band completed a third album, their label decided not to release it. Fergie then decided to leave the group in September 2001.
When The Black Eyed Peas were recording their third album Elephunk, will.i.am invited her to try out for a song titled "Shut Up". She then provided vocals for the song and bonded with the trio, recording five additional songs on the album. Shortly before the release of the album in 2003, she was offered a permanent spot, which she accepted.
The group's first major hit "Where is the Love?" debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album spawned more hit songs, including "Shut Up" and "Hey Mama". In June 2005, they released their second album Monkey Business.
The album peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and created the hit songs "Pump It", "Don't Phunk with My Heart", "Don't Lie" and "My Humps". The group was also recognized for their work, winning a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for "Don't Phunk with My Heart".
In September 2006, Fergie began her solo musical career upon the release of her first solo album The Dutchess. The album generated the hit singles "London Bridge", "Fergalicious", "Glamorous", "Big Girls Don't Cry", "Clumsy" and "Finally". For her work, she won an American Music Award for the Pop or Rock "Favorite Female Artist". She also received a Grammy nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Big Girls Don't Cry".
It was also in 2006 that she returned to acting beginning with an appearance in the remake of Poseidon as a lounge singer. She later had supporting roles in 2007's Grindhouse and 2009's musical film Nine. She and her co-stars received a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture for their performance in that film.
Continued Musical Success, Acting Comeback and Plastic Surgery
She also began doing voice work again, starting with some animated films such as 2008's Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, 2009's Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard and 2010's Marmaduke. In March 2009, she worked with The Black Eyed Peas again for their fifth studio album The E.N.D. It spawned the hit songs "Boom Boom Pow", "Meet Me Halfway", "Imma Be" and "I Gotta Feeling". In May 2010, she launched her debut fragrance, Outspoken, under the cosmetic brand Avon.
The singer has faced various plastic surgery reports ranging from a nose job, breast implants, endoscopic forehead lift as well as Botox injections. Many observers claim that the singer has had her face and body done so many times in the past ten years that her present appearance is way different from her previous looks.
One prominent rumor about her is that of a rhinoplasty. Her original nose had a wider bridge and its tip was a bit round. After the plastic surgery, her nose has become slimmer and more defined. Rumors of an endoscopic forehead lift then began to surface after people noticed her eyebrows becoming more arched recently.
She also reportedly had a breast augmentation judging from her previous photos, in which it was apparent how her chest was smaller compared to her present cup size. The shape of her present breasts are also too round and her cleavage has gotten way more prominent and bustier than before.

It's been about 25 years since I worked at Camp Needlepoint, a camp for kids who have diabetes. It was and still is a great place for kids who have diabetes to experience the outdoors in a safe and supportive environment. All of the campers have diabetes as do many of the counselors, and those who don't have diabetes still take injections of saline and check their blood glucose.
This was one of the first places where I witnessed the courage of kids when they would give themselves their first solo insulin injection. This often took a great deal of patience and encouragement, but the courage was the same for all. At the end of the week, the children who were able to achieve this goal stood in front of the lunch room and received their awards and a standing ovation from everyone in the room. This memory still touches my heart, sincerely and deeply.
Today, I was reminded of this again when I saw some kids in a pediatric clinic where I work. I ran into a girl I have met with before who was with her parents, and we began to just catch up on how they have been doing.
Actually, when I saw them they were carrying two huge, full garbage bags into the clinic. When Zibby was newly diagnosed, she got a stuffed animal to help herself feel more in control by diagnosing it with diabetes as well. She was able to use it as a means of helping herself adjust by giving the stuffed animal injections and blood glucose checks, too. As a partner in this process, it helped make her experience a bit less lonely.
Zibby was very intuitive in using this process, since play is a great way for kids to deal with feelings about many issues in their lives. What was unique about Zibby was that she wanted to help other kids who had diabetes by stocking the clinic with stuffed animals. You see, with the medical regulations, the clinic can't keep products like stuffed animals around, they are not sterile enough. But with help from Zibby, they might be able to offer kids these stuffed animals to keep.
Here is what Zibby did: She got together with some older kids who wanted to help her organize some meetings, and with their help Zibby met with Girl Scout and Brownie troops and their parents and told her story. Her dad said she did an incredible job, had many of the adults in tears and really got these groups to take action. In fact, they delivered 215 stuffed animals for Zibby to bring to the clinic.
I asked her if I could tell this story and she agreed, and I may not have all my facts straight, but one thing I do know is that this process of using a stuffed animal was healing and so was having the courage to give something back to other kids who are trying to live with diabetes. It's not easy, but with people who have Zibby's courage, it can get better.
Nice job, Zibby, and keep up the good work!

Q: Inheritance: Child uses parent virtual function instead of its own I'm having this issue with inheritance I just cannot wrap my head around. I have three classes, with a parental relationship between them. All of them has the function calcForces().
class Object {
public:
    virtual void calcForces();
};

class Boat : public Object {
public:
    virtual void calcForces();
};

class Sailboat : public Boat {
public:
    void calcForces(Wind wind);
};

Now my problem is that I I have a object created as a Sailboat (and saved it in an Object-pointer), but when I call calcForces() I end up inside Boat::calcForces(), not Sailboat::calcForces(). What am I doing wrong?
Here is my call to the function:
(*this->object_ptr_arr[i]).calcForces();    //'object_ptr_arr' is of type 'Object**'

A: If you want an calcForces() method in your sailboat you should add it there.
At the moment you only have a calcForces(Wind wind) method in your sailboat (and the calcForces() that is inherited from Boat)
So when you are calling calcForces without a parameter it will end up in the inherited method. To fix this either add it in Sailboat like described above or call it with an variable of type Wind

A: Suggestion - boats and sailboats exist in an environment. The boat knows how it is affected by the environment.
class Environment
{
public:
  Wind wind;
};

class Object {
public:
    virtual void calcForces(Environment const&);
};

class Boat : public Object {
public:
    virtual void calcForces(Environment const& env); // can ignore the wind
};

class Sailboat : public Boat {
public:
    void calcForces(Environment const& env) override;  // will use env.wind in calculation
};

Now you are able to modify the environment and ask all objects in the environment to calculate their forces. Whether they're boats, sailboats or dolphins.

A: The declarations of the overrides must match. Your declaration for Sailboat::calcForces takes a different parameter (a Wind instance) and therefore is not an override.
As commented by @stefaanv and @skypjack you can avoid this issue by embracing the use of the override function specifier, which would've caught the error at compile time.


Background: Endophytic fungi are taxonomically and ecologically heterogeneous group of organisms, mainly belonging to the Ascomycotina and Deuteromycotina. Endophytes usually produce the enzymes necessary for the colonization of plant tissues. Endophytes are able to utilize components of plant cells without disturbing host metabolism, which is confirmed by isozyme analysis and studies on substrate utilization. The patents related to enzymes and metabolites produced by endophytic fungi are associated with their ecological significance. Application of metabolites and growth promoting factors produced from endophytic fungi, in the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries, is now well established. The patents on secretion of extracellular enzymes in vitro by endophytic fungi needed for cell wall degradation, support the hypothesis that fungal endophytes represent a group of organisms specialized to live within plant tissue.
Objective: This review presents the patents granted on different aspects of endophytic fungi for the last 11 years. This expresses the scenario and impact of these patents regarding significance in human society.
Conclusion: In the last few years, research and inventions regarding the different aspects of endophytic fungi beneficial for host plant as well as for human beings have been carried out, which is supported by the increasing number of patents granted on endophytic fungi.

HI! I have a question: is possible to set DNS for JAPANESE MG4 (DIGITAL/JAPANESE PSN STORE VERSION ) DLC like is possibile to set DNS for CD/DVD versione of the pal/america/european version?
It doesn't work for the Digital version, unfortunately... I haven't been able to take the time to figure out why.
So in other words, it can work on the Japanese version, but only under the physical game and not the digital game? Okay. That would work. I'll still need to pool enough resources to get the game (and hopefully a mint pre-2010 version so I can see if I can get Chair Race from it) and the PS3 system. Fortunately, unlike the Xbox 360, there's no region lock for PS3 games, so I'll make sure to get an English PS3 system and only need to get two discs.
I'm a hobby fashion designer. Maybe I can help with providing some outfit design ideas?
I've done it, still doesn't work I donno what to do. Yes it's disc version.
Which disc are you using? Region, and version (greatest hits/platinum hits/whatever it's called in Japan, 25th Anniversary, original)?
You are doing the Lord's work making this stuff available again. I mistakenly deleted my MGS4 data a couple months ago to clear up some space and lost all the dlc.
I tried the method outlined above, and my connection test did not fail. I seem to be able to connect to the internet and PSN like normal, despite entering the particular server addresses. The only connection I cannot make is to download the MGS4 dlc. Do you have any ideas about what the problem might be? I have a US launch 60 GB PS3 and the disc that came with the US limited edition of the game. Any thoughts you have on the matter would be appreciated.
Are you sure you're using the correct DNS servers? The connection test should definitely fail if you are.
Yeah, I've tried it several times. I even tried reversing the primary and secondary servers, wired and wireless connections, and I got the same result. Pretty disappointing. I'll keep trying.
I can't see the IP you posted with inside the DLC server's logs, so I want to make sure.
You're using the NA disc, right? Not the EU disc, or a PSN version of the game?
Could you tell me the disc id on the bottom of the spine on the disc case as well?
The number on the spine is region 1 BLUS 30109P. I assume this is the NA disc because the box is all English, it has the ESRB rating,, and I bought it new from GameStop in the US. The case has a "not for resale" stamp rather than a bad code, because it was packaged with the limited edition of the game, which had an outer box. I can't imagine that the disc itself is any different though. Even if the disc were different, that wouldn't explain why I'm able to connect to the network when apparently I shouldn't. I can't believe I'm the only one with this problem.
I was able to download the files, but I had to use my phone as a hotspot. I didn't change any settings on the PS3, and I never got it to work when connected to my router. That makes no sense to me, but I'll take it. I'd be curious to know if you have any ideas about why it would work on one source but not another.

Start-up bank Tandem to raise up to £4m from crowdfunder investors
Tandem founder Ricky Knox has written to 2,000 investors inviting them to help fund the bank's next round of expansion Credit: Dan Barnett
Iain Withers
13 February 2018 • 11:55am
Start-up digital bank Tandem is following up its takeover of Harrods Bank by asking investors that took part in a crowdfunding last year for up to an additional £4m.
Tandem completed its acquisition of Harrods Bank - the lender to the wealthy once controlled by Mohamed Al Fayed - earlier this month, in a deal that doubled its customer base to 21,000 and added £80m of capital.
The lender's founder and chief executive Ricky Knox said the firm was inviting all 2,000 backers from its crowdfunding to invest further in order to help fuel growth and "look after the community of investors that have helped us so much".
Mr Knox said there was no update on Tandem's talks with former Barclays chief Bob Diamond about taking a possible stake in the firm.
Tandem believes the Harrods Bank tie-up will allow the firm to "accelerate growth massively". It also regained its banking licence through the acquisition. It lost the licence in 2016 when Sanpower, the Chinese owners of House of Fraser, failed to deliver on a planned £35m investment.
Tandem also added a £375m mortgage book and more than £400m of deposits in the deal.
Harrods Bank was controlled by Mr Al-Fayed until the early 1990s, when it was forced to split from the luxury retailer after the Government deemed him and his brother not "fit and proper" people to run the bank.
Tandem immediately retired the Harrods Bank brand upon completion of the takeover.

Q: Passing a service to an interceptor in Nestjs I am using Nestjs and want to pass a service to the interceptor with generic types but I am getting errors that Nest cannot resolve the dependencies for the interceptor.
Here is an example:
Here is the interceptor:
@Injectable()
export class BaseInterceptor<Entity, SomeService> implements NestInterceptor {
    constructor(public Service: SomeService) {}
    intercept(context: ExecutionContext, next: CallHandler) {
        const request = context.switchToHttp().getRequest();
        const body: Entity = request.body;
        if(body instanceof CreateProductDto) {
            console.log("product!");
            // do stuff with the service here
        }
        return next.handle().pipe();
    }
}

Here is a class extending this:
@Injectable()
export class ProductsInterceptor extends BaseInterceptor<CreateProductDto, ProductsService> {
    constructor() {
      super(new ProductsService());
    }
}

And I am calling it on a route:
@UseInterceptors(new ProductsInterceptor())
@Post()
....

My ultimate goal is to be able to use this interceptor on any route and then define some actions in the interceptor based on the Dto that I receive. I believe the main issue here is how to manage the dependencies for the interceptor within Nest which is what i am not sure about.

The Print Industry has been through a significant amount of change over recent years. With an extended period of market revenue decline due to digital substitution, where the industry has had to cope with the impact of electronic media and technological changes. Ebooks, digital magazines, online news outlets and apps have all cut into the traditional revenue sources.
There are also ongoing sustainability challenges with 40% of tree harvesting attributed to paper, high VOC petroleum based inks and paper bleaching all contributing to the pressure. To counter, the industry has had to innovate and introduce new technologies, from changing inks and using recycled paper to the introduction of digital printing processes.
Despite these challenges and their associated changes, the BPiFs' Priorities for Print 2017-2020 have returned to focussing on productivity, profitability and promotion, after a decade of dealing with external pressures.
This focus on productivity and profitability is where PSI can help. With MAC Valves we have developed a number of industry specific solutions covering both pneumatic and liquid control applications that increase machine uptime, improve quality and consistency and reduce waste.
We understand the unique environment that Printing Industry presents, be it special seals in Kalres™ to deal with MEK or designing highly accurate and repeatable easy to clean solenoid valves for ink handling.
Whether you are doing news print, inkjet, product coding, print and apply or specialist multicolour UV we have a range of solutions specifically created for your sector. You can be certain that PSI can help improve your production.
The packaging industry has been going through challenging times over the past few years. With pressures on consumer spending and the demands from fast moving consumable goods (FMCG) producers, coupled with uncertainty in the Eurozone economy and price inflation affecting raw materials and energy costs the negative impacts have been challenging to deal with.
The impact of these issues is compounded by the constant pressure from the government, media, customers and consumers to consider how their products can be made more sustainable. The pressing issues of over capacity, low prices and high raw material costs mean that the need to develop sustainable packaging presents a dichotomy for the industry. How do you meet the challenges of price pressure and increasing material costs while still investing to maintain a relevant position in the market for the future.
The significant exposure to these external pressures mean that continuous operational performance improvement becomes vitally important for the packaging industry.
In a recent Ernst & Young report (Unwrapping the packaging industry – seven factors for success)1, it was described how the top performing packaging manufacturers use the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) metric hierarchy. OEE is widely used in manufacturing, but is particularly applicable to packaging given that value creation is driven by the efficient conversion of a small number of costly raw materials into a product using expensive machines and a fairly fixed labour cost. OEE is expressed as a percentage, with 100% representing perfect conversion of the inputs into product without any losses. There are three sources of losses, namely availability, performance and quality. OEE is the product of the percentages of these three quantities.
1. Availability losses come from machine downtime (changeovers, maintenance, repair or poor quality air).
2. Performance losses come from operating machinery slower than its rated speed (inexperienced crews or product mix and formulation changes).
3. Quality losses come from scrap — which is the percentage of material produced that is not good for sale (depending on the process, some of this may be recycled or re-introduced into the process as mentioned above).
PSI's partnerships with core suppliers such as MAC Valves, PHD and Omega allow us to offer solutions which support the reduction of losses in all three of these areas.
Right from the start of the system, with filtration and drying, we have the latest, energy efficient technology to help improve your process. Omega Air are one of the most innovative suppliers in this arena with solutions including nitrogen generation for modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and process filtration alongside their air preparation portfolio.
Our range of high speed, high reliability, highly repeatable and long life components will deliver increased performance, greater machine uptime and improved product quality. We have the very latest technology to keep you ahead of the curve in this highly competitive industry.

The Economic and Social Situation of young people in the Euromed region
Adopted on 09/10/2014
REX/399-EESC
Mr Narro Pedro (Diversity Europe - GR III / Spain)
The information report on The economic and social situation of young people in the Euro-Mediterranean region is the EESC's contribution to the 2014 Euromed Summit of Economic and Social Councils.
The choice of topic was made due to the key role that young people have played in the region since the Arab Spring and are set to continue to play in the coming years, especially considering the demographic structure of societies in the Arabic speaking countries in the Mediterranean. These demographic structures will present a major challenge for governments and societies alike in the coming years with estimates that two million jobs or more need to be created annually over the next decade only to maintain current employments levels. Failure to deliver these jobs will lead to economic and social pressures which could one more spill onto the streets.
The information report will seek to take a holistic approach to situation of young people in the north and south of the region, looking not just at the employment market but at wider trends amongst young people also outside of work, their self-perception, their political and social outlook on the future, their living arrangements, their view of their parents' generation and other older generations, as well as their view of the region and its role in a globalised world.
The work has been given added impetus thanks to the specific request by the secretariat of the UfM, in line with the UfM's own priorities, for the EESC to deliver a report relating to young people for the next summit. The possibility of holding a joint seminar with the ESC of Jordan involving civil society organisations working on young people in Jordan is being explored.

OpenNTPD is very nice to run to keep your clock up to snuff. It's main advantages over the 'official' NTPD daemon is it does the same thing in one fifth as much code, meaning less RAM usage, and a much lower chance of security holes. But installing it is going to be confusing if you do not follow the correct steps.
You might want to check that your clock is somewhat accurate before installing, as OpenNTPD can't adjust the clock in large steps. It adjusts the clock with ~0.1 seconds every 4.5 minutes, so if your clock is two minutes off it'll take ages before the clock is accurate.
If ntpd does not start, verify that you have a root-owned directory /var/shared/empty, and that you have a ntpd user in /etc/passwd with /var/shared/empty as homedir.
You can see the operation of the Openntpd program much better if you run it from the command line with these commands.
