Local time: 17:00 KRISTALL ARENA
Avtodor Saratov outlasts Hapoel in high-scoring thriller
Avtodor Saratov's high-octane offense opened Group H play of the Last 32 with a thrilling 105-96 victory at home over Hapoel Bank Yahav Jerusalem. There were 27 lead changes and 18 ties before Avtodor used a 13-0 fourth quarter run to decide the game. Travis Peterson had a monster double-double of 29 points and 14 rebounds to go with 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block for a ranking of 39 in the win. Jeremy Chappell nailed 5 three-pointers in scoring 21 points while Jeff Brooks had 11 points and 12 rebounds, Artem Klimenko and Paul Stoll both scored 11 points and Evgeny Kolesnikov added 10 points. Donta Smith poured in 29 points in the loss for Jerusalem while E.J. Rowland had 19 points, Yotam Halperin scored 14 points, Bar Timor added 13 points and Lior Eliyahu chipped in with 12 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists in the defeat.
Peterson started the game on fire for Avtodor with the team's first 12 points while the game went back and forth with 8 lead changes by the time he tied it at 12-12. Brooks scored Avtodor's first points by someone other than Peterson to make it 14-12. Smith and Rowland both moved to 6 points in the quarter for Jerusalem, which was up 20-21. Artem Zabelin pushed Avtodor back ahead 25-23 before Timor's three-ball and 4 points from Eliyahu opened the biggest lead of the game 25-30. Avtodor had evened it 30-30 before the end of the first quarter. Jerusalem hit the first 4 points of the second quarter but the game remained tight with Klimenko pushing Avtodor back ahead 36-34. Jerusalem reclaimed the lead and Matt Janning and Timor both nailed three-pointers for the guests after Avtodor had tied the game to lead 41-44. Chappell knotted the game again with a three-ball and Peterson's 2 free throws were followed with a Klimenko basket to make it 48-44. Jerusalem twice got the gap to 1 point but Peterson scored 5 straight points as Avtodor pushed the lead out to 57-49. It was 57-51 at intermission.
Halperin and Smith hit three-pointers early in the second half but Stoll and Kolesnikov answered for the home team to remain up 65-59. Timor and Smith were on target again from long range as Jerusalem went on an 0-8 spurt to pull ahead 65-69. Avtodor stopped the run with the next 4 points but could not regain the lead until Peterson's fast break layup to make it 75-73. Rowland's free throws put Jerusalem ahead 75-77 and the lead switched hands on each of the final 7 scores of the quarter, which ended with Avtodor up 86-84 on Chappell's fourth three-pointer. Jerusalem twice tied the game early on in the fourth quarter but Brooks and Chappell nailed three-balls to force a Jerusalem time out down 96-88. Kolesnikov added another three-pointer and Stoll's steal and layup made it 101-88 with less than 5 minutes left – and another Jerusalem time out after the 13-0 run. Rowland and Smith both scored as the margin was down to 101-92 – and an Avtodor time out. Two Halperin free throws made it 101-94 before Denys Lukashov stopped the run after an offensive rebound and Stoll pushed the gap back to 11 points – 105-94 with 55 seconds to play to decide the game for good.

"It was a tough game against a tough opponent. There are a lot of experienced, well-skilled players in their roster who know how to play basketball. They shot perfectly tonight, so it was very difficult for us to stop them. I should emphasize the fantastic atmosphere in the arena. I am glad our fans enjoyed the game tonight and got a lot of positive emotions too. Honestly, we didn't expect such great performance from the opposing team. We didn't have a player in our roster that was able to stop Donta Smith. So we allowed them to feel the game from the very beginning and they started to score unreal baskets. I am happy we could win."
FRANCO, DANNY
"First of all, let me congratulate Avtodor for the win. It was really exciting game for the fans and all people who saw it. We played against the best offensive team in the Eurocup. That's why we expected to meet such intensity. It took time for us to get into the game. Unfortunately, we missed a lot of our players tonight. We were not well enough physically to play such an intense game against such a good team. For us it was only first game of the group, which consists of very strong teams and now we are waiting for the next game to try to get our first win in the Last 32."
PETERSON, TRAVIS
"It was a good game for us. We got the first win in the Last 32... We played well, particularly on offense. Our defense became better in the second half. What was the secret of my great performance in the first half? Nothing special. I just started to play hard from the opening tip-off and found my rhythm. I was making shots."
ROWLAND, EARL
"We knew Avtodor is a very dangerous team. They had a lot of alternatives in offense. We played as much as we could and our efforts were sustained. The game was very close, but they decided the game in the fourth quarter."

SUMMARY: A retail salesperson plays a crucial role in the retail selling process. The salesperson acts as an interface between the retail store and the customer. In this chapter, we have analyzed the retail selling process wherein the salesperson identifies the potential customers and tries to sell them the merchandise. We have discussed the various stages of the selling process and ways of handling and providing information to the customer to increase the sales of a retail store.
A good salesperson can convert a prospective customer to a potential customer with his effective communication and people skills. The chapter also analyzed the evaluation process for a salesperson which is based on certain factors like conversion rate, sales per hour and use of time.

I cook a lot of what most people would consider "special occasion" food in my restaurant all the time, so it can be hard to work out what to cook when I want to make something special at home. Food that is both simple and impressive is tricky. We don't want to spend the whole day cooking, but we do want to amaze our guests.
This menu strikes a balance, with a good-looking dish that is really just a careful assembly job, a classic main course that showcases beautiful ingredients and a spectacular dessert that looks tremendous but is fairly straightforward to produce. It will provide an unforgettable finale if brought out with a glass of champagne at the midnight hour.

– Loose is fast: a looser chain is always the best for performance, but the tradeoff is that if it chain is too loose, it will fall off the chainring or cog (more likely chainring). The bumpier the track, the tighter you have to run the chain in order to prevent this from happening. The velodrome I ride at and teach at most frequently, Boulder Valley Velodrome, is very smooth so you can go looser than on many other tracks.
– Chain tension: chain tension is determined by the position of the rear wheel in the dropouts, the roundness of the ring and cog, and the condition of the chain. Chains can have loose and tight spots, so you have to check the chain tension over the entire length of the chain. Don't assume that because the chain tension is optimal in one position, it will be over the whole thing.
– Chain type: chain type will impact how loose you can run it. The width of drivetrain components, also known as pitch and lateral flexibility will in part determine how tight you have to keep the chain in order to keep it from coming off. Tradition "track" width is 1/8″, while "road" width is 3/32″.
NOTE: chainring, cog and chain widths should not be mixed. While you can put a 3/32″ cog on a wheel and use a 1/8″ chain with it, this combination makes it far easier to throw the chain off the cog. If you try and put a 3/32″ chain on a 1/8″ cog, it will not engage the teeth (the cog will be too wide). Your drivetrain components should be on consistent pitch throughout; avoid mixing and matching.
The more laterally flexible a chain is, the more likely it is to come off. Modern road drivetrains are made with chains with a high degree of lateral flexibility, this is what makes a chain shift very quickly and quietly from one cog to another. The first choice for any track bike should always be a chain that is track specific or made for a single speed / BMX bike. Any 9/10/11 speed road chain is not made for track use and will require more tension to stay on the chainring relative to a single speed or track specific chain. Road chains can be used on the track but they are definitely not optimal.
DANGER: fingers get caught in track drivetrains all the time!!! Nearly every veteran trackie has war wounds from an incident involving a chain. Always be careful when checking chain tension and don't allow yourself to get distracted. Also don't wear loose sleeves or other dangly fabrics that could get caught in the chain while checking tension. If you develop a consistent technique to checking your chain tension, it will reduce the likelihood of an accident.
1. Stand behind the bike and lift the saddle to be supported by your left shoulder.
2. Hold the rear triangle of the bike with your left hand, either on the chainstay or seatstay, lifting the rear wheel off the ground.
3. Spin the drivetrain by pushing on the right pedal with your right hand.
4. In the middle of the chain (the spot between the chainring and the rear cog, push on the side plates of the chain with your right index and ring fingers, as the chain moves towards the chainring.
CAUTION: don't let your fingers follow the moving chain all the way to the chainring. Stop and replace your fingers on the side plates half way between the ring and the cog before you get to the ring. You will repeat this process 4-5 times to cover an entire revolution of the chain and get a feel for the tension in different spots.
There should be some lateral movement to the chain. If the chain barely moves and has no feeling of "play" it is too tight. If the chainring starts to come off the chainring (with a "popping" noise) or comes off the ring, it is too loose. Make sure and go through the entire revolution of one full chain to check the tension all the way around. If there are loose or tight spots, adjust accordingly (see below).
5. If there is a big difference in the chain tension in one revolution, consider re-tensioning your chainring bolts. Always tension chainring bolts in a "star" pattern, never in a "clock" pattern. Tightening in a clock pattern can result in "winding the ring up" which will rotate or twist it subtly under the tension of the bolts, and this can result in uneven chain tension in the drivetrain.
6. If your ring or cog are really out of round or bent, replace them. If your chain is toast, get a new one. Side note: track chains do need lubrication, contrary to urban myth.
7. Make sure the axle nuts are tight when you get the chain tension dialed. It is *almost* impossible to over tighten rear track nuts on a well made track hub.
Some riders or coaches have alternate suggestions for checking chain tension. Some suggest using a wrench to check lateral tension, but I feel it is very difficult to get an accurate read using this method. Plus, a metal wrench on a metal chain is slippery, and if the wrench slips off a moving chain, it goes into your spokes, which may bend a spoke or chip the carbon on a fast wheel. This is why I recommend using fingers. With practice, this method is very safe.
Some riders also suggest spinning the drivetrain quickly and checking to see if the chain will fall off by picking up the bike with the moving wheel and shaking it violently while holding it sideways. In my opinion, this is an inelegant solution that is begging for an accident. It takes up a lot of room on the infield, where a lot of athletes and people are coming and going. It involves picking up a bike with the wheels and drivetrain moving at high speed. The rider may also be mistaken for someone flagging overhead aircraft for emergency assistance.
These are simply my suggestions on the best way to check chain tension. Use whatever method works for you, the important thing is that your method is safe and effective.
1. With axle nuts loose, slide the wheel back until the chain is lightly tensioned and the wheel is centered.
2. Finger tighten each axle nut.
3. Tighten left axle nut with wrench until it is just tight (not fully torqued).
4. Tighten right axle nut with wrench until it is just tight (not fully torqued).
5. Check chain tension and wheel center relative to BB and seat stays. Note: some frames with lesser tolerances will allow the wheel to be centered in one aspect but not the other, at the same time. This means the wheel is out of plane with the bike (sad face). Solution: get a new bike, or align the dropouts (if the bike is steel and they can be aligned).
6. If the tension is too tight or loose, first loosen right axle nut, then grasp the rim at the chainstay, near the bottom bracket, with the left hand (standing behind the bike) and move the rim back and forth (to non drive side to decrease chain tension, or to drive side to increase chain tension) in tiny increments. Re-tighten right axle nut.
6. Check wheel alignment, if necessary, loosen left axle nut to center wheel. This may impact chain tension.
7. Check chain tension. If it is too loose or too tight, return to step 5.
Note: if your dropouts are not made correctly, or if the material is worn or grooved, the axle will have a tendency to fall into old areas of wear, making chain tension optimization difficult. Solutions include filling dropouts smooth, replacing dropouts or dropout slots (if possible) or getting a new bike.

here is no place for anecdotal evidence in current mainstream science. It is overwhelmingly rejected as having no value whatsoever. Tenured professors in any scientific field cringe at the very mention of it. It is anathema to them. Yet, it is these same professors who accomplish little or nothing of scientific value. Why? Why are the most public representatives of science those who do nothing to advance the cause of civilization? Why do their mouths represent the brains of the true scientists who are actually doing the work? How did it come to this?
This is evidence presented second hand. Someone sees something, reports it and some action is taken in response to it. Let's say your house is on fire. You call the fire department and report and they send out a truck toot sweet to put it out. Seems pretty straightforward. Their response is based on anecdotal evidence, i.e. you saw it but they didn't ... but they expect to see it, so they come. Obviously, if they never saw a fire when they came, they would give up and would no longer respond to a fire report. The fire department has an expectation of confirmation with a few false alarms sprinkled in (hoaxes).
Reporting phenomena to the scientific community most often involves something which is not an emergency and secondly, most often the phenomena is gone before they could possibly get there. Hence, they are left with only a report and nothing to actually see. These are things like UFOs, Bigfoot, rocks falling from the sky or giant waves in the ocean. For such reports, the scientist looks back on his rules of science and his experience and determines that the phenomena reported cannot exist and therefore he needn't trouble himself about it. Thus, "It won't be there when I go to investigate so I won't bother to go look at it or even entertain the matter as possible because the present extent of our knowledge prohibits it.".
This is the easiest thing to do ... the downhill path. Often it is the right one. Those who take the other path however, are the ones who have to opportunity to advance the cause. They must also take the brunt of scorn from the downhill people who will treat them badly for debasing science by NOT FOLLOWING THEIR NOSES ... EXCLUSIVELY. Peripheral vision is forbidden by mainstream science. Why?
Observe Galileo and his counterpart Kepler. Galileo is the experimentalist ... the deductive fellow, firmly earthbound soundly rational and ... a coward. He achieves much but in the end is willing to flush it all down the toilet under pressure from ... literally ... murderers. Kepler on the other hand is an almost full blown nut case. He is all but entirely an inductive mind, looking for the "music of the spheres". He endures, he perseveres in the face of great adversity and comes up with a substantial addition to science. If Kepler were put on the rack, he wouldn't have given in. Rather, it would have been just another day at the office. It is lunacy that drives courage (the induced idea that one's life has greater value than one's body). For Galileo, and all "empiricists", the body is life. The mind is only a dubious abstraction. For deductionists, the world is only a physical thing. For inductionists, it is the secondary information conveyed by matter that is most significant (mind, spirit, etc.).
Hence, for Galileo, life is more important than freedom. For Kepler, freedom would have been more important than life ... if ... he were given the same opportunity of choice given to Galileo.
This is not to say the Kepler is better than Galileo. Rather, both have assets and liabilities. Combining the assets of both would remove the liabilities. Both are needed.
Mainstream science is "only Galileo". There is no Kepler among tenured professors of science ... in principle. If he was there ... they'd have kicked him out long ago ... along with his acheivements. If you keep your nose to the grindstone, you are accepted. If you stick your neck out, you are condemned by "non-achievers".
Where and why comes this most sacred credo?
Newton was a burn out. He spent much of his early years trying to figure out the universe rationally, i.e. deductively from postulates he had earlier formed by the forbidden process of induction. He couldn't do it and so gave up saying, "The subject is barren". There are only a handful of people who know exactly what this means from personal experience (including me). Because he burned out, he said "I frame no hypothesis" ... but you can be sure that he framed at least a couple hundred and discarded them upon reflection as inadequate for one reason or another.
Understand that the chief mantra of modern science is based on failure, i.e. the acceptance of failure as the norm. Hence, modern science sees that nothing final is to be learned about the universe even though only a finite number of hypotheses are possible. Thus, we can't know in principle ... such principle stated by the noble Newton ... the father of physical science ... the burn out.
As Galileo had Kepler so too did Newton have a counterpart. He was Leibniz ... the inductionist (the metaphysician). Both of these men made sincere attempts to understand the universe as a whole. Newton in private ... Leibniz in public. Leibniz is responsible for such deep remarks as "For the generation of all things, one principle is sufficient" and "If one could look inside the brain, it would look like a mill" (a general translation). Leibniz was rejected by the scientific community in most respects which favored Newton. When the two got into heated priority claims over calculus, it was Newton who won and the rancor came mainly from the Newtonian camp.
Deduction is easier than Induction.
Consequently, there are far more deductionists (empiricists) than inductionists who, by dint of superior numbers, rule the scientific roost and determine the definition of science ... and ... that definition excludes churning out wild hypotheses. (Except if those wild hypotheses are framed and totally steeped in scientific jargon, i.e. so nobody can understand them.) However, the reader should now understand that only the inductionist can open the door to new concepts that lie above those framed by Newton (and a select few others who did do some induction at the beginning of the endeavor known as "physics").
From then on, only deductive discoveries have been made.
The only serious exception I can recall are the inductive discoveries of Bohr and his followers. However, Bohr, et al, did induction by "backing into it", i.e. they were backed into a logical corner and more or less deduced their way into an inductive principle because no option was conceivable. Hence, reluctantly, mainstream science (Newton's minions) has come to accept the Uncertainty Principle albeit without any depth of understanding because they backed into it rather than by inducing it without experimental evidence as might have been done by Leibniz. Recall, it was Leibniz who first considered the properties of objects that were indiscernibly different, a highly inductive idea not at all empirical yet now a part of statistics at the quantum level.
Empirical science is a close system. They expect to come to an understanding of existence by experiment alone, i.e. with half a mind. The metaphysical (inductive) is to be expunged from science as non-empirical and thus, unscientific. Thus, Leibniz and Kepler types are to be thrown out in favor of reverse-induction (climbing the mountain of truth bass-ackwards ... without looking in the "up" direction).
If you are a scientist, you would reject all the above ... publicly ... but, privately, you know exactly what I mean.


As we have emerged from the '90's and early 2000's, where over-plucked brows were all the rage, we find ourselves in the modern day, where perfectly sculpted, shaped, and tinted brows are IT.
How do we achieve these perfect brows?
After growing out (if applicable), shaping, and creating the "foundation" for your brows…we pick out the ideal brow makeup, formula, and application to birth Michelangelo-approved brows. Sounds simple enough, right?
All jokes aside, making our brows flawless isn't that big of a task. As a disclaimer, I'm not going to say I recommend shaping your brows yourself, but I also don't recommend having them done by someone else. I DO recommend growing out your brows naturally, if applicable/possible. The more natural your brows are, the easier they are to fill in.
let's talk about the different brow formulas and the application process of brow makeup.
I always recommend a lighter brow. Bold brows look wonderful on many people, but I often find filling in brows *too* much can be…well, too much. I like to start by forming a shape or line around the brow, and filling in after that.
I also never color too closely to the front of the brow, because "transitioning" the brow here makes it look amazing. (Think of a gradient: the front of the brows should be lighter than the rest, but not sparse, as this makes it look as natural as possible).
currently, there's powder, pencil, and gels. I recommend powder for naturally full brows, pencil for medium to less full brows, and gels for sparse brows (or if you're looking for a bold/dramatic look).
For color, I recommend picking a shade that is as close to either your natural brow color or hair color as possible. However, let's say you have blonde hair and dark brown eyebrows, I recommend selecting a dark brown color, rather than blonde.
Other products you can use include brow "highlighters" (which sculpt and shape your brows further), spoolies to brush through eyebrow makeup, and even clear brow gels (such as the one available from Anastasia Beverly Hills) which can help already full brows to have a more symmetrical shape, or complete your brow look.
This is one of those topics that can seem a little intimidating – but trust me, it's not! All it takes is a little time, practice, and patience, and you'll have your dream brows in no time. If you'd like to have a face-to-face lesson, consider booking a makeup lesson with me and we can discuss eyebrows further!

Wall-to-wall carpeting cannot be removed to provide it with a comprehensive scrubbing. Therefore , one need to resort to a variety of alternative ways of achieve this same end. Quite simply, this consists of three steps: an intensive vacuuming, spot cleaning on the surface to be scrubbed and the scrubbing-cleaning operation. The cleaner operation may be performed in a variety of ways, generally divided into two varieties: surface cleaning and deep cleaning. Foam-type carpet scrubbing up machines. These machines apply foam onto the floor covering surface followed by a spinning or rotating brush. Then this foam is either immediately vacuumed up by the same equipment or is followed by an additional person with a vacuum pickup. Fine wood-flour sawdust or clay-type material impregnated with solvents which are spread after a floor, worked into the floor by brush action machine, and then vacuumed up. This kind of seems to work well, especially in oil-based soils. The obstacle is that some of the particles may well keep coming out of the carpet to haunt you. If carpets is glued directly to the floor, there are several common causes of buckles that can easily be fixed. An insufficient amount of carpet adhesive - or zero at all - could possibly be in the area of the buckle. Often, it may be the result of an initial inability to properly press that percentage of the carpet down into hard contact with the spread syrup. Moisture problems subsequent to assembly can also account for buckling.

Who isn't afraid of change?
Every one is to a certain degree and customers are no different.
Just like every one else they are afraid to say yes to either doing something different or just using a new product.
So what are customers truly afraid of?
Finding the same thing, but for a lower price somewhere else.
Buying something too early that will come out on a sale later on.
Will not use what the product or service promises.
Product or service will only solve part of their problems.
Are not the decision-maker and are afraid to be criticized for a bad choice.
All salespeople need to anticipate objections before they come up as much as possible.
As long as the salesperson creates trust, urgency and a need they will get the sale more times than not, but on the road to the sale many customers look for ways to avoid making a decision due one of the above-mentioned fears or for other reasons.
They state a concern they believe to be contrary to what the salesperson's product or service promises.
These statements usually start with, "But I heard that..." or "But I saw that...," usually with some kind of "but" phrase or word indicating disagreement.
And it's very easy for the salesperson to give into their emotion and immediately correct the customer's misinformation or to redirect their viewpoint.
WARNING: This is the time where it's not what you say, rather how you say it that matters. On the road to the sale it's easy to hit "pot holes" or go down "dead-end streets" that lead to nowhere.
There's no need to waste either party's time on needless debates. Remember customers can get what you offer else where so you need to make it easy for them to work with you.
The words you use are crucial.
This time it's permissible to agree with them, even though you actually disagree. Use something like, "Yes, that's exactly right. That is true when...". If you think about it, anything the customer says can be true under certain circumstances.
They just do not apply to what you are offering. But if your response is negative, then they may be unintentionally offended or will also give into their natural response of defending their position, and that is where the debate begins.
A debate is not about who is right or wrong, it is not about logic, rather two sides merely defending their stance hoping the other side will give in. In fact, if you are not careful with your choice of words and tone, they are not even going to listen to what you are saying. Don't let the conversation slip away!
Can you imagine an official during a sporting event actually admitting his/her mistake to an angry coach who is hurling insults at them? That is just not going happen very often.
The, "yes..." freezes them for a second, it confuses them. They are expecting you to respond like most salespeople, to say, "No, no, no." Instead you have said, "yes" and their confusion turns to curiosity, curiosity to hear you explain why you are saying yes. They are giving up control to let you talk.
As long as you left price until the end, after trust, need and urgency were created, as well as a lot of fact-finding to uncover other important information, such as why the customer asked for "..........", he/she will be able to move from here more easily without confrontation.
It seems like these are semantics and meaningless, but I cannot tell you how many times after the customer has heard, "No, that's not correct" in some form or another, either coming from me or other sales people that the conversion drifted off in another direction and the salesperson started to lose control of the conversation.
Do we care about being right, or making the sale?


I dont know why im always use "simple" phrase in my recipe,maybe its my nature as a baker that made it look easy for me off course! But to share it with you guys so you all know that you dont need to be a cheff to make some of these thing. Like this recipe i want to share,egg tart filling...well, you need to make its tart base first.I already share my tart dough recipe earlier....So,you will use it for egg tart this time.Next time i'll show you how to make blueberry cheese tart.
I always use this recipe in my workplace...so,maybe it quite alot for you that just want to make for your family.You can divide this recipe for your own use.
Egg and water first then mix it for half minute.
Then add sugar,when you do this you need to mix until you sure that the sugar melt,otherwise your egg tart will not plain and 'pretty' after you baked it.
Only when you sure other ingredient blend well,then put the milk and again you need to mix it.
Here you go,your egg tart filling has ready! just pour it at the base tart that you have shape and now its ready to be baked.
note: You need to cover it with alluminium foil so that it doesnt get straight heat,that will make your egg tart buble!
Baking time: 24 minutes first,then you you add 3 or 4 minute depend on how crispy you want your tart dough.
And its ready to serve.Enjoy!
Very nice! I think I may have a new favorite blog to come to for awesome recipes!
wow! i like this. yumyum!
Fantastic recipe! The instant I read it I knew it was one that I wanted to share with friends and family so I forwarded your blog address to them with the Egg Tart filling recipe. Scrumptious.

Keynote Speech on Prospect of Legal Education delivered by Justice Kalyan Shrestha
Published Date: 2014-08-11, Monday
First of all, I take this opportunity to congratulate the Kathmandu University in Dhulikhel for taking a firm initiative to establish the School of Law (KUSL) as its seventh School. It was a very timely move, in view of our pressing national requirement for quality legal education, and the Kathmandu University was certainly the best to think of it. The appointment of Dr Bipin Adhikari, a senior constitutional expert, as the founding law dean shows how serious the University is about its commitment for quality legal education.
I would also like to congratulate the Kathmandu University School of Law for launching a very important course, BBM, LL.B (Bachelor of Management Bachelor of Law) as the first of its academic programme. I believe this course is a beautiful marriage between the two important spheres of the knowledge system - management and law. The combination of the two independent subjects creates some synergy which helps in proving the whole as more than the sum of its parts, as Gestalt phrased it.
This marriage may create among the undergraduate students the capacity to understand the legal perspective while taking a management decision, and the managerial implications of a legal opinion, in the absence of which business enterprises may suffer for one or the other reason. The novel objective of this course, I hope, should ultimately help in creating lawyers who understand management, and managers who understand law. This helps lawyers create favorable business environment. They will be equipped with enhanced legal knowledge engineered with the capacity of a risk manager who is schooled in related disciplines and can provide multi-disciplinary solutions to the business clients and corporate sectors.
This type of programme was much needed in Nepal. One caution if I may add is that the course should be oriented not only to promote the legal business market to amass resources through the profession, but should also be inspired by the ethical considerations in the operation of business. I understand ethics alone could not have prevented many of the corporate malpractices that have occurred, but ethical lapses certainly can escalate legal violations. Therefore, in addition to law and management, ethics too must be imparted in this type of course. The course would certainly cater to the needs felt by the market and not be overly commodified in the name of marketing the course. In this context, the role of a legal practitioner must be reinvented in the light of existing limited contributions made by the law and the legal profession in maintaining the compliance culture of law.
Be that as it may. Now coming to the format and focus of legal education, let me be honest that I may not be the right person to speak about it. But as I am asked to speak on the prospects of this new law school I will try to present before you my fleeting thoughts on the issue on the basis of my limited exposure to recent development in international legal education and later my associations with the professors and professionals.
As a sitting judge I am always concerned about the quality of legal profession from where many make to the Bench. The foundation on which the legal and judicial system stand is no doubt the legal education. Having a quality legal education in place is thus crucial for maintaining and enhancing the quality of the legal and judicial systems of the country.
For a long time legal education was considered a specialized education. It is still considered so in many parts of the world. It is as rigorous and meticulous as the study of science, where very high emphasis is given to research and research-based education. But in our part of the world, mainly owing to the wind that blew in this sub-continental plains in the 1950s, legal education began to be considered as a liberal education. Again, gradually, students with poor grades started opting for law courses. Legal education got institutionalized as part-time education. Many students enrolled in night and morning shifts of law colleges. Permission was also granted to students to appear in law exams as privately studying students. This really affected the scenario of legal education for nearly thirty years. I am glad the situation now is changing. This School of Law can really show the difference.
I start with a popular statement that "law schools are great not because of teachers but because of students". Now when I see the attempts being made by great law schools like Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Oxford, Cambridge etc in roping in bright students and offering attractive packages, this sounds very true. Rigorous screening of application, entrance examinations, and interviews may help the school draw able students. I know that Dean Adhikari and his team have already worked on it from the very beginning.
Let me emphasize here that I myself have been sharing my complaints with the working of our legal and judicial structures for long. Currently I have been taking the responsibility of implementing the Strategic Plan for the integrated Judicial reforms in Nepal. In that process, one of the daunting problems faced by our judiciary is the lack of proper human resource.
One disappointing trend noticed these days is that the Public Service Commission, which has a major role in public sector appointments, is receiving far fewer quality applications for the judicial service positions than its vacancies announced. Law Schools are not producing an adequate number of meritorious graduates to meet the demands of the public and private sectors. The declining interest of the meritorious new graduates in joining the government's judicial service necessitates the review of the service conditions, which in turn negatively affect the service delivery capacity of the judiciary. The judiciary is largely leaning on the untrained subordinate judicial staffs who have limited orientation to the law.
Most worrying factor for me at the moment is that neither the Public Service Commission nor the Ministry of General Administration, which administers the civil service are concerned about it. I have hardly sensed any communication between the faculty board of law schools and the judiciary taking place in terms of the appropriateness of a curriculum or course. That demonstrates how mindlessly we are functioning in terms of preparing the legal human resource. I believe, the kind and quality of judicial services is bound to be affected by the kind and quality of legal education that prevails.
Currently, the junior officers in the judiciary do not often have any opportunity to be specifically train in law before they join the service; this has happened particularly after the closure of the certificate level course in law. I believe the judicial service is not just composed of the judges and the judicial officers, but also the lawyers and legal academics. If one branch is uninformed about what is happening to the other branch, the whole health of a body is bound to suffer. The potential of complimentarity between various justice sector actors is conspicuously missing.
I call upon the Kathmandu University School of Law to take some initiative to continue a dialogue among all justice sector actors, including the other law schools, the judiciary, the Bar Council, the Judicial Council, the Nepal Bar Association, the Public Service Commission and the Ministry of General Administration, that alone can streamline the contemporary needs of the different branches of the legal system. The more we communicate and cooperate with each others, the more we can create tangible, mutual benefits, which ultimately can enrich and standardize the legal system - our principal objective behind the creation of the law school. I have a lot of expectation from this bonafide partnership.
The other important issue for legal education is the issue of faculty development. I believe the law schools should take this seriously. This has been a bane in not just Nepal but our part of the world as well. Even though we know pretty well that law teaching and law practice are two different areas, we like to forget it for a variety of reasons. We come across advocates taking classes in law schools and full-time teachers practicing in courts. This kind of arrangement should not be tolerated. Having said this, I equally emphasize that law teachers should be handsomely paid, so that they do not have any financial strain and are able to use their free time in research and writing.
I believe the Kathmandu University School of Law can reinvent the role of law schools to vouchsafe ultimately the legal and judicial system in the country. Apart from the BBM,LL.B course that is just inaugurated, more specialized courses of different nature can be offered. My personal impression is that the legal education currently is increasingly disoriented to the legal philosophical overtones. Consequently the legal profession is taken more as a bread-earning activity than soul-searching, more tactical than logical, more as mystifying than experiencing. We are standing amid massive contradictions. The KUSL can demystify them. I welcome the School of Law to take this challenge.
My firm belief is that the law cannot be understood without understanding the context under which it might have been enacted and in what situation it is being applied. The contextual knowledge makes our understanding of law more realistic. This underlies the needs for multidisciplinary interface while studying the law. I may submit that the interface between science and law; law, economics and development, law and poverty alleviation, law and management, law and social change and the like could be taken up as an advance area for research and study.
They can help us identify our roles in positively steering the law in a manner that serves the society in a better way. I believe, economically inefficient laws should not form part of our good laws. An obstructive litigation strategy that amounts to increase of unreasonably high cost of the project, making it unamenable for implementation cannot be condoned as part of exercise of professional autonomy. Development hindered should mean development justice hindered. For me, the aim of legal education should be to create the capacity among people to enjoy their rights, inspire democratic behavior and ultimately distribute equitably the benefit of the law. Exposure of the student to the life, liberties and opportunities for that becomes crucial.
I see it a great merit for the School of Law to have network and linkages. By that I mean linkage with noted law firms where law students work as apprentices, linkage with professional organizations and civil society organizations that are working in different fields such as victim support, legal aid, and support to marginalized groups such as women, Dalits, and others, and also linkage with professional organizations such as the judicial academies and even the courts. Creating opportunities for meritorious students to work as law clerk with judges enhance their professional knowledge. I do understand that we, as the professionals, should help law schools in acquiring such openings, and I support your initiative in this direction in future. I do believe that Dr. Adhikari is aware of both the challenges and the prospects that this law school possesses.
Another important issue could be the teaching method. My only concern here is how to develop the legal acumen among the students. Coming to pedagogy, as the lecture method is not always encouraged now, law schools have followed novel methodologies that encourage learning. Instead of spoon-feeding their students, law schools encourage self-study, intense participation in the class, and usage of creativity right from the beginning to the end of courses. Asking students to write papers on given areas and creating possibilities of peer evaluation and feedback on presentations help students focus on sharpening their knowledge on the subject. Instead of concentrating on final examinations, it is always better to divide the score on a range of areas such as attendance, participation, paper, and presentation. Sir Francis Bacon was quite right when he said "reading makes a learned man, conference a ready man and writing makes an exact man". Encouraging students to write more and more brings handsome dividends to them.
It is very clear that law schools can play an instrumental role right from the point of conceptualization of laws to their implementation. Laws should be understood in such a way that they be practically meant for clarity, certainty, consistency, efficiency, effectiveness, accountability, fairness and equality. The understanding of law should promote entrepreneurship. It should encourage creativity through motivation and incentive. The confidence in law enhances when it is enforced. How far we live up with their qualities determines how correctly we are serving the cause of the rules of law.
Finally, I come to the ultimate objective of the law schools. What should be the objective of the law schools? Should they limit themselves to imparting skills or have some social orientation of promoting democratic governance, rule of law, human rights and social justice? Should lawyers engage in resolving social problems or promoting divisive tendencies and social strife or just be involved in wealth maximization without minding anything else? To my mind, legal education should be guided by greater societal goals of fair play, equity, justice, and democratic governance. Otherwise there will be no difference between a law school and a skill-imparting professional organization.
I am confident that the School of Law that Dr Adhikari is leading will be unique in many respects and not be just yet another law school in the crowd.
I offer my best wishes to the new law school.
I thank you all for your kind attention.

SPECIAL: Isaan folk tales (part nine)
04/07/2016 Culture	The Isaan Record
Today The Isaan Record brings you two stories: one of a beloved prince from Si Sa Ket province, and the other about how the Mun River was formed.
Story 17: The Lost Prince
LONG, LONG AGO, BUT AFTER THE THAI PEOPLE HAD LEFT SOUTHERN CHINA, THERE was a Thai prince in Srisaked. He was very strong and brave. The people in his town said, "Prince Bantud is the greatest hunter in the whole country. Every day he goes into the forest to hunt animals, and every day he kills many fierce and terrible beasts." Because he was such a good hunter, he soon knew every part in the forest. He could not get lost. If he wanted a tiger, he knew just where to find one in the forest. If he wanted a deer, Prince Bantud knew where all the deer lived.
Prince Bantud got tired of hunting in the forest he knew so well. He was proud of his skill as a hunter, and he said "When you know the forest, then you do not need any skill to catch animals." He was very sad, and he would not hunt.
The people were worried, they loved their prince. One day a man came to the town and said, "I know of a forest Prince Bantud has never seen. It has lots of animals."
Prince Bantud was very happy and decided to go to this new forest. He took his soldiers with him, and they went to the forest which was on a mountain. They had just come to the darkest part of the forest when Prince Bantud saw a deer. It was eating grass, and everyone agreed that it was the most beautiful deer they had ever seen. Prince Bantud thought, "I would' like to have this deer for myself." He said to his soldiers, "I want to kill the deer. You will take the path to the left, I will go to the right and chase the deer until it comes to you. Then we can kill it easily."
Prince Bantud was very excited, he ran after the deer. He thought, "When I return with this deer, everyone in the country will know of my fame." But the deer saw the prince and it ran farther and farther into the forest away from the soldiers of Prince Bantud. Soon the prince was lost and could not find his way out of the forest. He had forgotten that he did not know the paths in this forest. He sat down. He was lost, and he had not killed the deer.
Meanwhile, Prince Bantud's soldiers were waiting for him. One said, "Almost four hours have gone by, where is our prince? Is he lost? Has some wild animal killed him?" No one knew the answers, so they decided to look for Prince Bantud. Soon night came and they had not seen him, even though they had been all through the forest.
So the soldiers returned to the palace. They said to the people, "The prince is lost, we have tried to find him, but we do not know our way in the forest. Tomorrow everyone must come with us to help up find the Prince." Because everyone loved Prince Bantud, they agreed. For many days after that everyone looked for the lost prince, but he was never seen again.
The people were very sad, they loved their prince very much. They decided to name the forest, Bantud forest, and the mountain, Mount Bantud. You can see the forest and the mountain in Srisaked province. Their names have not been changed since Prince Bantud disappeared many centuries ago. And until today no one has ever seen Prince Bantud again. Don't you wonder what happened to him, and why he disappeared?
Story 18: How the Moon River Was Made
THE MOON RIVER FLOWS FROM KORAT TO UBOL AND THEN INTO THE MEKHONG. It is the biggest river in the Northeast. Here is a story people all over Thailand tell about how this river was made:
Thousands of years ago there were no men in this part of the world. In fact most of Thailand was a big sea. Two serpents lived in this sea. They were so big that each one lived in one half of the sea. In the northern part lived the serpent named Pinta-yonak-wati. In the southern part lived the serpent Thana-moon.
Because the serpents were so big, they were always hungry. They decided to work together to find food. When one of them found some food, he would give half to the other serpent.
One day a very big elephant fell into the southern part of the sea. It could not swim, and so it soon died. Thana-moon found the elephant, and. he took it to Pinta-yonak-wati. "Here is an elephant I have just caught. It is very big so we will have lots of food to eat today. We will not be hungry."
The next day a porcupine was drinking water, and it fell into the sea and died. Pinta- yonak-wati found the porcupine. According to their agreement, he gave half of the animal to Thana-moon. But the porcupine is a small animal, and it has many quills. The quills cannot be eaten, so before he took the porcupine to Thana-moon. Pinta-yonak-wati took the quills off the porcupine.
When Thana-moon had eaten his part of the little porcupine, he was still very hungry. He saw the quills and thought, "Pinta-yonak-wati has not given me half. He is keeping some more for himself." Thana-moon became very angry and he began to fight with Pinta-yonak-wati.
Soon many fish and animals could not sleep, nor could they drink the water from the sea. The two serpents were fighting all of the time. The fish and the other animals asked the god, Indra, to help them. They said, "Indra, you must make the serpents stop fighting. If they do not stop, we will all die."
Indra came to the sea. He said to the serpents, "You must stop fighting. You must leave this sea. Pinta-yonak-wati, you must go to the northwest. Thana-moon, you must go to the southeast."
When Pinta-yonak-wati left the sea, his great body left a mark on the earth. That mark became the Ping River. Then Thana-moon left the sea his body left another mark on the earth. His mark became the Moon River. Even today these rivers are named after the serpents. If you go to northern Thailand, you will see the Ping River. And if you go to northeastern Thailand, you will see the Moon River.

How the 'RHOBH' Star Makes Money
Tyler Cowan
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne and her estranged husband, Tom Girardi, shocked fans when it was revealed in November 2020 that they were divorcing after 21 years of marriage. However, it appears she has a sizable wallet of her own without his massive bank account in the mix.
The Georgia native is worth an estimated $5 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. How did she make so much money over the years? Here's a breakdown.
Erika Has a Booming Music Career
The reality star began her music career in 2007. She released her first single, "Rollercoaster," that year — and it went directly to No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. She released a second track, "Stars," the same year, which also went to No. 1. In August 2009, her debut album, Pretty Mess, was released. Both lead singles, "Give You Everything" and "Pretty Mess," were No. 1 in the U.S. — and even hit 16 and 19 on the Global Dance charts respectively.
Overall, she has had nine singles hit No. 1 on the U.S. chart. Her success afforded her the opportunity to tour in Asia, where she has a large following. Since she started appearing on RHOBH, her music career has grown due to the exposure, but she hasn't released new music since 2018.
Erika Has a Successful Reality TV Career
The singer joined the cast of RHOBH in 2015 and has become a mainstay on the show since season 6. Her divorce became the central storyline on season 11.
Erika Starred on Broadway
In January 2020, the TV personality began starring in Chicago on Broadway in New York City. She played the lead role of Roxie Hart, famously portrayed by Renée Zellweger in the 2002 film adaptation. However, the production was shut down in mid-March, weeks before her run was scheduled to conclude, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Janet Mayer/Startraksphoto.com
"Well this is not the way I wanted to say goodbye to Roxie and my Chicago family but I have no choice," Erika wrote via her Instagram after New York governor Andrew Cuomo announced theatres would close. "THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart to everyone that came to the shows. I leave NYC feeling like my mission is incomplete but I will treasure this time always."
Erika Is an Author
The Bravo star released her memoir, Pretty Mess, in March 2018. The book went on to become a New York Times bestseller.
Erika Has Partnerships
The actress has designed two collections with ShoeDazzle and, considering her 2.3 million Instagram followers, she is also able to partner with brands in exchange for paid posts. Some of her most popular brand endorsements have come from Savage x Fenty and Kat Von D's beauty brand.

HOME	 BIOGRAPHY	 PHOTOS	 POEMS	 FOUNDATION	 MEMORIUM SOCCER TOURNAMENTS
2007 Summary & Tournament Photos
The 2007 Tournament continued the legacy of the previous three events, namely a tournament played at the highest level of competition and sportsmanship.
The winning team of the Men's Competitive Division was Sikh Temple, who had to play their best football to overcome the 2005 Champions, DPI.
It was fitting that the Sikh Temple team won this year's tournament as they had come so very close to clinching the title in the inaugural event in 2004.
The third and fourth teams in this year's tournament were Vancity and the Binger's Army.
In the Co-Ed Division, the Westside Ballers prevailed once again in a thrilling final against a very strong Bench Warmers' team.
The semi-final between the 'Ballers and last year's finalists, the Hustlers, was also an exciting encounter and any one of the three teams would have been worthy winners.
Next year's tournament promises to be even more competitive, if that's possible, as the goal of at least two groups is to dethrone the talented four-peater Westside Ballers team.
The recipients this year of the Kits memorial scholarship award were Jake Moodie and Krista Dewar.
Both Jake and Krista were present at the closing ceremonies and were acknowledged as outstanding students both academically and sportswise.
The SFU recipient, Leigh Sembaluk, has been an outstanding player for the SFU team and is a person with exceptional character.
Leigh sustained some serious knee injuries which caused him to sit out the entire 2006 season, which is the reason that he is the only remaining member of the SFU program to have played with Ronale.
Raj Naidu, Ronale Sanjay's father, in presenting the trophies and medals, once again expressed his gratitude to all those who had participated in the highly successful event.
First and foremost, he thanked all the players from both divisions for their enthusiastic participation.
Raj also thanked the organizers of the event, as well as everyone who had volunteered to help make the tournament such a success.
It is his hope, as is the hope of all those who loved his gifted son, that this annual tournament will carry the memory of Ronale Sanjay long into the future.
A charity foundation has been established in honour of Ronale. Click on FOUNDATION for details on memorials and scholarships dedicated to Ronale Sanjay Naidu. The Ronale Sanjay Naidu Foundation welcomes your DONATION.DONATION

There's an old saying that all good things must come to end, but that's not always the case in the world of technology. A year after webOS was officially shut down, HP opened it up in hopes that third-party developers would continue development. And sure enough, the Open webOS project, established by HP to help further develop the operating system, is thriving—despite the prospect of having no new hardware.


Contrary to what many people think, clouds can be a blessing on your Maui Wedding day. It makes for a dreamy, ethereal setting that translates beautifully in photos. The fluffy goodness is like a natural filter to buffer the bright Hawaiian sun. On just such a night, Angela and Timothy joined hands in front of an intimate gathering of family. Among those special few were their four stunning children that couldn't wait to celebrate with their mom and dad. After enjoying their custom created ceremony by Rev. Joe, Angela and Timothy were pronounced husband and wife to the cheers of all in attendance. After some much anticipated family shots, the love birds were treated to a lovely cotton candy inspired sunset during their romantic couple's photos. All in all, it was great day for two amazing people. Thank you, Angela and Timothy, for choosing Simple Maui Wedding to share in your joy. Congratulations & Warm Aloha!!!

Replying To royaldunne: "Why is it only ulster that still holds this view ??
I am genuinely interested, is it self belief? Is it a unwillingness to see what's goin on ? I'm not having a go but no county in Leinster thinks like that. And I am talking about counties that have more all Ireland than either Donegal or Tyrone, Meath are in the top 5 in traditional counties, Offaly have a huge tradition, Kildare same, Laois Westmeath etc have all beat or win provincials this century yet they have all come to the belief that the all ire is now a dead competition,
The view that it's only a warm up (the league) seems to only come from ulster counties. Do they still believe they can beat Dublin? And Kerry ? Let's be honest and I'm not having a go here, neither Donegal nor Tyrone are going to win Sam this year or next for that matter, neither would beat dubs and either would find it hard to beat Kerry, they really are in the also rans along with a lot of other counties. I admire ur optimism, sure I am always a half full glass man. But how many all ire will dub have to win to change these counties minds ? I know Donegal were last team to beat them and all that, however just 4 years previously Meath put 5 goals past cluxton and destroyed them yet we can see what the gaa created , why can't some ulster counties ?"
How can you be so sure donegal or Tyrone won't win an all Ireland witin the next 2 years. Give me the crystal ball your looking into there will ya

I'm constantly entertained by the notions you have of yourself and who you think you speak for.
Top 5 in traditional counties? It took you 60 years to win an All-Ireland and yous have had long barren spells in between some brilliant, legendary teams since then.
You started this thread to have a cut at Ulster for some childish reason and somehow think you're balanced and partial and genuinely interested in opinions - laughable if kinda tragic. Patronising Down GAA is fooling nobody either. The arrogance it takes to make these statements about an entire province and think you're being reasonable is astounding.
You'd think that your constant triumphant references to a Leinster semi-final you won 11 years ago would register with you somehow, but the penny never drops.
Before you go down the inevitable road of slagging Cavan in response, I don't make outlandish claims about my county insisting they're fact.
Stay in your lane.

Right so. Let's disband county competition altogether and concentrate solely on club.
Dublin are the best team ever granted, but they haven't annihilated any team in a final. Mayo and Kerry have both gotten close. Could Donegal and Tyrone beat Kerry or Mayo on their day? Yes.
I don't understand this defeatist attitude at all. Meath used to be renowned for their teak toughness and would never yield an inch to Dublin. Where has that attitude disappeared to? Like meek lambs these days it seems.

Part of the problem with Meath GAA in particular is that they are too party political. To compare part of the Dubs, and Kerry's success in the last 20 years is that they take on players based on ability. Not on their parents political views or where they work. It seems to me that Meath in particular have not done this. I look at some of the Meath GAA people and they are on tv and radio and writing in the Indo, criticising the GAA, rather than trying to win. They spend more time on politics than on winning matches. Just look at the Meath posters on this site. Always bringing politics into sport.

I think the Dublin dominance has destroyed hope in many counties. People laugh at Mayo for thinking we can win an all Ireland....well we've been closer than many of those doing the laughing and why can't one hope and think they can cross that bridge?
If you don't think it's can't be done then your beaten already. IF Mayo win Connacht (and I said if because it will be extremely hard to win this year) meet Dublin this year in a semi final I'd give us a right chance....why not? They have to be beaten some day.

Replying To The_Fridge: "excuse my ignorance - gaago is a paid subscipation? can you get it in the North?"
As far as I know it is available worldwide. Originally set up to cater for GAA fans outside Ireland, however now available to view all games at a cost of fiver. Watched a few last year and quality was ok
seadog54 (Meath) - Posts: 1689 - 28/04/2021 19:19:14 2339178
Great positive attitude Yewtree. I personally don't think Mayo are as strong as the 2014 to 17 team but Dublin prob not as strong either. Mayo very unlucky not to have won at least one all ireland and maybe that ship has sailed but who knows.
CiarraiMick (Dublin) - Posts: 2789 - 28/04/2021 19:21:11 2339179
In my eyes the only teams who can beat Dublin are Kerry, Tyrone and Donegal. Don't think Mayo can get near them anymore albeit put some great battles up to them over the years.
TheRock2121 (Donegal) - Posts: 745 - 28/04/2021 19:41:22 2339189
Exactly. A day will come when Dublin under perform perhaps & some fiercely hungry team like Mayo, Kerry, Tyrone will smell blood & beat them.
But if everyone's attitude was a defeatist as some posters there'd be no point in getting out of bed in the morning.

So thats where we went wrong, knew it had to be more than lack of players or underperforming management, I will contact County Board with this informed insight and analysis and no doubt we will soon return to past glory days. Forever in your debt.
Mayo have given good entertainment. However they like Meath are just too political. There are too many people in Mayo GAA playing at politics rather than gaelic football. Leave the politics at the dressing room door lads. Pity as they have been a great team for the GAA over the last 20 years.

Couldn't give a crap about entertaining anyone...just want to win it. Mayo football is political no doubt but I'd argue every county is. It is not an excuse Galway hurling a prime example and what's going on in a Galway football? Tom Flynn another player opting out...
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "Ah it was the middle of November Ollie and everyone know winter football doesn't suit us :-)"
When you have 37 All Ireland's KingdomBoy, winter football is not for everyone.

Replying To TheRock2121: "In my eyes the only teams who can beat Dublin are Kerry, Tyrone and Donegal. Don't think Mayo can get near them anymore albeit put some great battles up to them over the years."
Donegal and Tyrone have yet to prove they are able for Dublin....in fact they have to actually get far enough to meet them first.
Replying To CiarraiMick: "Great positive attitude Yewtree. I personally don't think Mayo are as strong as the 2014 to 17 team but Dublin prob not as strong either. Mayo very unlucky not to have won at least one all ireland and maybe that ship has sailed but who knows."
Chance gone for that team surly but many are now retired. Mayo are in transition but still very competitive. Finding a few players so will take time. I still believe we can beat a Dublin in a one off game though on any given day.
Replying To Greengrass: "That's true Ollie but in the only final played between Mayo and Louth Mayo unfortunately for the Wee County came out on top."
That was the only Championship meeting between the teams Greengrass. Mayo won the match with a late goal. There have not been too many clashes down through the years either in the league. The last time they met in the league was in 1998 at Drawda. Mayo won by a couple of points.
Replying To Irishcelt: "How can you be so sure donegal or Tyrone won't win an all Ireland witin the next 2 years. Give me the crystal ball your looking into there will ya"
Really?? If you think either will. Can I have some of what u smokin

Replying To yew_tree: "Donegal and Tyrone have yet to prove they are able for Dublin....in fact they have to actually get far enough to meet them first."
This is very true. I would argue though that Donegal have more attacking players capable of landing the couple of big punches that would be needed to knock Dublin out. But we don't have the same tenacity and ferocious tackling at the back that we used to have under McGuinness. The job this year will be to find a balance. It won't be easy at all, can't look beyond Down in Newry in the prelim.
Just looking at the way they are opening the country up it makes no sense to me now that the leagues are divided into northern and southern sections, we'll likely be free to go anywhere in the country by mid May, I suppose the decision was made with the situation as it was at the time, but as they say when the facts change we should change with them.

Meet Rita Mabli, Hall of Honor inductee
Rita Mabli
Editor's Note: We are profiling the McKnight's 2020 Women of Distinction honorees daily through the program's July 28 online awards ceremony. To learn more about this digital celebration, the Forum the next day (which offers three free continuing education credits July 29) and the program in general, visit mcknightswomenofdistinction.com.
Female leaders at United Hebrew of New Rochelle can thank Rita Mabli, at least in part, for their successes.
Mabli, who has spent her entire career at United Hebrew, became the organization's first female administrator and later its first female CEO and president. Today, women head all seven lines of business at United Hebrew.
As CEO and president, Mabli has had a far-reaching effect on the organization. Among her accomplishments, she led United Hebrew through a rapid period of growth, building award-winning assisted living, memory care and affordable senior housing communities, as well as adding rehabilitation, other long-term care and home care services. She also rebranded the senior living and care provider into a vibrant campus of comprehensive care to support older adults through all stages of aging, from those who live independently to those with advanced healthcare needs — and everyone in between.
Under Mabli's leadership, United Hebrew has been recognized for superior standards of care. In 2019, the organization was selected to participate in the highly respected Montefiore Health System Skilled Nursing Facility Collaborative. It also consistently is named among the "Best Nursing Homes" by U.S. News & World Report and has earned a 5-star rating by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for five consecutive years.
In addition to that of residents, employees' quality of life has fared well under Mabli. She strove to create a supportive work environment with flexible hours and telecommuting. Thanks to her efforts, United Hebrew boasts one of the lowest staff turnover rates in New York state.
Mabli's personal experience with healthcare informed her career path. At just 12 years old, she lost her father to a prolonged illness. She never forgot how lovingly his physicians and nurses cared for him and vowed to create a similar culture of kindness and caring, starting at the top.
Last year, United Hebrew marked its 100th anniversary. Mabli has helped ensure that it will help many more older adults and provide robust services in a compassionate environment for many years to come.
The McKnight's Women of Distinction program is jointly administered by McKnight's Senior Living and McKnight's Long-Term Care News. The program's Diamond sponsor is PointClickCare. Silver sponsors are OnShift and PharMerica, and the Signature sponsor is Acadia Pharmaceuticals.

Q: How to strech clip-path footer to the full width? I have a footer on my website that must fill the full width of each page, but here is what I get:

It doesn't fill the full width of the page and, moreover, doesn't stick to the bottom. Here's the code I use for it:
.root {
    margin: 25% 0 0 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 336px;

    background: var(--text-marked);
}

.firstLine,
.secondLine {
    margin-top: 5%;
    position: absolute;

}

.secondLine {
   margin-top: 12%;
   font-size: 20px;
}

Here's the code of the container div:

    padding: 0;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    align-items: center;
    font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;
    color: var(--text);
}

Here's the code of the footer:
import React from 'react'
import styles from './Footer.module.css'

const Footer = () => {
    return (
