Getting a healthful body needs attention and the right tools. When a family member shows signs of a mental wellness illness or substance abuse, he/she wants proper treatment to address the underlying reasons for the scenario. In Georgia, Blue Cross Blue Shield coverages enable people start working on getting private targets and to seek treatment for an addiction.
Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield provides various alternatives to address substance abuse on getting healing targets and work. Typically, the coverages are categorized as Gold, Silver or Bronze plans. A Bronze coverage is a fundamental plan that has the lowest monthly price and covers most health care concerns, yet, in addition, it has the maximum deductible and out-of pocket expense. It's not inappropriate when people don't anticipate important health problems, but in addition, it covers most scenarios. Silver coverages are typical plans that have a middle range price on the mid range and a monthly basis out-of pocket expense. It enables people to prevent high prices when unforeseen complications appear, and covers most of the health problems, including mental wellness illnesses. A Gold coverage has the maximum monthly price, but the lowest deductibles and out-of pocket expenses. Typically, the most complete coverage is offered by Gold coverages. Georgia has numerous coverage alternatives to help healing targets and address substance abuse. The particular details involving alternatives and dependency treatment for mental wellness illnesses depends upon the demands of the person and the coverage. Most coverages in Georgia insure dependence and mental health illnesses after the person pays the stated deductible. The policies typically pay a portion of the treatment prices, like 60 to 80 percent of the treatment costs. Coverage and precise speeds change.
Constraints in Blue Cross Blue Shield coverages in Georgia depends on the details supplied in a coverage that is particular. Typically, the guidelines restrict coverage to out-of network applications. Some policies need pre authority for treatment in a residential plan. Pre authority implies that the person notifies the insurance carrier about the intent and the treatment plan to enter the facility before beginning treatment for a mental wellness illness or substance abuse. The details change, although some policies don't need pre authority. Coverages also can need a recommendation from the primary care physician before beginning any treatment that is specialized. Read the policy cautiously to discover whether it needs a referral when seeking treatment to prevent any complications. Other constraints relate to particular kinds of systems or the duration of treatment that the coverage will not insure.
The insurance plans from Blue Cross Blue Shield in Georgia provide a basis to help discover the next measure of restoration. It enables people to identify plans that are suitable based on the network after which compare amenities to find the right option for private targets. Assess the options the plan offers after identifying possible treatment facilities. As an example, ascertain if the facility requires a conventional or holistic approach to healing. Applications that are holistic use tools like counselling, nutritional supplementation and treatments for physical diseases to address complications or any health issues that appear after using booze or drugs. The plan assesses the needs of somebody before beginning treatment and requires an entire person approach to healing. Applications that are conventional use tools like group therapy, family therapy and counselling to address substance abuse and mental health illnesses. By utilizing tools such as cognitive therapy and behaviour modification to transform unhealthy thought processes and shift incorrect activities signs established applications also help with long term targets. | 2019-04-20T12:34:03 | https://www.mthealth.org/blue-cross-blue-shield-insurance-drug-rehabs/georgia/ |
ISLAMABAD – The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has again approached the Pak-PWD for early completion of remaining work of the Headquarter pertaining to life safety and fire prevention measures, it has been learnt.
The Emergency and Disaster Management Unit of the Metropolitan Corporation Islamabad had in March 2018 visited the newly-constructed NAB Headquarters in sector G-5/1 for inspection in the context of life safety and fire prevention measures and submitted a post-inspection report requesting installation of necessary equipment and taking other measures which are necessary for life safety.
The letter written to the Pak PWD which had executed the work said that the subject matter is of serious nature and completion of the work in the light of the said MCI report is still awaited. “In this context, relevant officers of Pak-PWD have already been verbally asked several times as well as requested through the letters. It is once again requested to direct all the concerned to complete the assigned task without any further delay,” the letter written by Deputy Director NAB to DG Pak PWD said. It is to mention here that an MCI team had in March 2018 found unsatisfactory life safety and fire prevention measures at the building and requested the NAB high ups to upgrade the system.
In the meanwhile, the Capital Development Authority has introduced new SOPs for swift issuance of No Demand Certificates (NDC) for transfer of residential properties in the residential sectors of Islamabad. According to these SOPs all relevant formations have been given specific time frame so that general public could be facilitated by timely transfer of residential properties. These SOPs will commence from next week 6th of February and initially will be applicable for residential houses in developed sectors only.

AUSTIN, Texas – September 19, 2014 -Doran Racing’s Nissan NISMO 370Z was fifth and fourth in the first two practice sessions and it qualified 11th Thursday in IMSA Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge action at the Circuit of the Americas.
Friday’s 2.5-hour race is scheduled to start at 1:20 p.m. Eastern time.
The team’s qualifying time was more than 3 seconds faster than the 2:27.659 it ran in the first practice session Thursday morning, when it was ranked fifth out of 52 cars in the field. The team improved between the practice sessions too, as it was fourth overall in the second practice session on Thursday afternoon prior to qualifying with a 2:24.784.
The weather may play a factor in the race, as rain is predicted for Friday.
“It started sprinkling towards the end of qualifying, but everyone got a few dry laps in,” said Jaeger, who is making his first start at this particular track.
“It rained this morning in between sessions, so we didn’t get that much quality time on track,” he added after the qualifying session.
Jaeger will start the race and then hand the car over to co-driver B.J. Zacharias of Cincinnati.
The pole went to Billy Johnson in a Mustang at 2:22.504.
“I think this track favors the high-torque V8s, but I also think their times will fall off during the race, and that will allow us to work through the field,” Jaeger said. | 2019-04-23T14:23:10 | http://www.bradjaeger.com/news/doran-racing-qualifies-11th-for-this-afternoons-ctscc-race-at-cota/ |
The growth of online retail is blamed for the closed shopfronts on American and European streets and dead malls in India and China.
To many, retail seems to be having an identity crisis. The growth of online retail is blamed for the closed shopfronts on American and European streets and dead malls in India and China. At the same time, Amazon is opening physical stores and buying offline retail operations in the US and in India, whereas the world’s largest retailer, Walmart, is busy digesting India’s e-commerce market leader (Flipkart). India’s online fashion and lifestyle websites too — including Myntra, FirstCry, Yepme and FabAlley – are acquiring offline brands or opening stores.
What in the world is going on? The short answer: consumers want choice and retailers have no choice.
Two decades on, and hundreds of billions of dollars of investment later, online retail is estimated to be about 12% of the global retail market. E-commerce is 10% of the US market, of which Amazon takes up about half. In India, the figure is in the vicinity of 2%, and that share is virtually stitched up between Walmart-owned Flipkart Group and Amazon.
Clearly, consumers value offline retail stores, either for convenience or as holistic brand ambassadors. Over at physical retail businesses, managers have been terrified of ‘channel conflict’. Senior management has squeezed resources for online, even when return-on-capital was demonstrably better than a new store. Some have refused to publicise their own company’s website through in-store banners, fearing that customers would get sucked away from the store. It has been strange to see this opportunity being passed up – if customers trust you to walk into your physical store, why would you not want to connect with them at other points of time when they are not near your store?
Retail is not and should not be divided between ‘old-world physical’ and ‘upstart online’. Successful retailers and brands have always been able to integrate multiple channels and environments to reach customers.
For instance, British fashion retailer Next has long used a combination of physical stores as well as mail-order catalogues side by side, and then e-commerce as the digital medium grew. British retailer Argos took another angle and embedded a catalogue inside the physical store — first a paper catalogue and then on-screen.
No doubt, for older companies, integration is tough; business systems and people are in disconnected silos, incentivised narrowly. Each channel needs different mindsets, capabilities, processes and systems to ensure that the optimal customer experience is appropriate for the interface — whether it is a store, mobile app, website or catalogue. But e-tailers opening physical stores have their own challenges, too, tackling the messy slowness of the physical world, where you can’t instantly switch the store layout after an A:B test. They now need to develop those very ‘old-world skills’ and overheads that they thought they would never need.
Varying circumstances make customers choose different buying environments. Successful retailers that outlast their competitors have used a variety of formats and channels to meet their customers, and will continue to do so. | 2019-04-20T15:17:21 | https://www.financialexpress.com/industry/uniting-retail-why-online-versus-offline-debate-must-end/1361509/ |

This page contains all things Viking weave. Originally called Trichoinopoly Chain, it has become known as Viking Weave or Viking Knit in modern times. Archaeological digs have found examples of this ancient technique as far back as 1000 B.C. It has been found in Ireland, Scandinavia and the British Isles. The Weave has been found in treasure troves and was found to be used as jewelry, trim and even weapons (metal whip, or scourge). The examples found are woven in silver, not tin or bronze, which were the popular metals of the day.
Castle in the Sky is proud to be continuing the tradition of this weave in various jewelry patterns, using a variety of traditional and non-traditional wire. If you would like something custom made, as we can make this in virtually every color of the rainbow as well as silver, gold and copper, just contact us and we will make your jewelry to your specifications.
A beautiful combination of 26 gold colored wire and silver elements. Blue and yellow glass beads compliment the filigree silver long bead. Plain silver cones and a gold toggle clasp finish off this one of a kind Viking weave bracelet. Approximately 9" in length. | 2019-04-20T18:54:11 | http://castleinsky.weebly.com/middle-earth-metals.html |

1. In view of what course of man does God need to carry out his purpose—soon?
IT IS comforting to know that, whereas human plans for mankind are failing, the purpose of a loving Creator is succeeding. The failure of human plans is causing all of us hardship and concern. But faith in God strengthens us to look ahead to our enjoying eternal good from the sure success of His purpose. He never needs to learn from such things as previous mistakes, for he makes none. Men ought to learn from past human mistakes, but they have the weakness of repeating the same mistakes. Failure follows. So now the unerring God needs to carry out his purpose—soon!
2. How did plans laid for our twentieth century fail, and what questions arose as a result of introduction of atomic warfare?
2 The grandiose plans that nineteenth-century planners laid for our twentieth century ended in failure. World War I pricked them as if a rainbow-colored soap bubble. The League of Nations plan did not repair matters. Soon it appeared that world planners had not learned by experience through collapse of the League of Nations. The future presented them a new challenge when two atomic bombs were dropped in the Far East, to usher in atomic warfare. All of us now confronted something indeed serious. What protective device would men responsible for world planning now provide? Something that experience guaranteed to prove a sure success? Something that expressed a wisdom superior to that of mortal man?
3. What kind of society is the United Nations, and how has it affected the world state of affairs?
3 No, the nation that exploded the atomic bombs took the lead in arranging with its war allies for another society of nations. Just another political league with a new dress and facial makeup, under a new name, the United Nations organization. It has its Declaration of Human Rights. It has its International Court of Justice. It has its police force, which has enforced the cease-fire along the Suez Canal. It has its General Assembly and Security Council as planning bodies for the now 135 members of the United Nations. Admittedly, it has served as a safety valve for an explosive world situation, but, for all that, the world state of affairs still continues explosive. The United Nations, although organized for world peace and security, has not prevented the development of the nuclear bomb and intercontinental ballistic missiles with warheads containing nuclear bombs of devastating power.
4. How far has the United Nations organization been able to go about calamitous conditions, and how is confidence in it shown to be waning?
4 In the United Nations we have another instance of international planning on a world scale, but by a number of participants larger than ever before. However, is such overall world planning by mortal men proving successful or offering hope of success? The United Nations investigates and publishes data on the deadly pollution of air, sea and land. Also, on the spread of death-dealing diseases and epidemics. Yes, on famines and droughts. It finds itself unable, however, to cope with the worsening situation. It takes note of the regional Treaty Organizations of Communist and anti-Communist political blocs outside the United Nations, but cannot interfere with these international groups. So human confidence in the United Nations weakens, and political rulers continue to depend upon their regional alliances and upon strong military stockpiles as the best deterrents to a Nuclear World War. Promises of politicians to lay the foundation for a “generation of peace” sound hollow!
5. Since the world situation does not better itself after all the human planning, what questions arise?
5 People are imperiled not only by international complications. They are afflicted by domestic problems and trouble, turmoil and anarchy, and the hardness of living in their own countries. What is the trouble? Why is it that with all the feverish and intensive planning and taking of preventive measures, the world situation does not better itself? Where does the fault lie? What is in error with all this human planning? What has been left out of consideration? Honest-hearted persons would like to know.
6, 7. (a) In all such national and international planning, what has been overlooked? (b) After get-togethers opened by prayer, what have the planners failed to do?
6 In all the aforementioned cases of national and international planning, we note that there is an overlooking of the Creator of the heavens and the earth and the sea, an ignoring of His counsel.
7 Oh, the planners may claim to belong to the various religious sects of Christendom or to Judaism or to Buddhism or to Mohammedanism or to Hinduism or to some other religious group. They may have their political or social get-togethers for deliberation on problems opened with prayer by some clergyman. Yet, do they thereafter let themselves be guided by the counsel given by man’s Creator? Do they go to his written Word, where his counsel can be plainly read? Then, do they let themselves be guided by such counsel? Here a controversy might arise. The planners are not all agreed as to what the written Word of the Creator is, for they have different sacred books that they consider holy, the basis for their religious belief. But the true Creator of heaven and earth is the One who made man and put him on the earth and told man what he was to do here. This Creator also foretold with accuracy our present-day distress of nations with perplexity.
8. What is the book not considered or followed by worldly planners, and who made that book?
8 The Maker of man is also the Creator of this written Word, his inspired Book. That Book is the Holy Bible, written by the hand of faithful men whom the Creator inspired to write. Bible societies have spread this inspired Book all around the earth, in hundreds of languages. So it is not an unknown and inaccessible Book. Its very opening sentence says: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” The first chapter of the Holy Bible also describes the creation of mankind, both male and female. (Genesis 1:26-31) This is the Book that is not consulted or followed by the worldly planners for human society.
9. What ancient Bible statement about human plans still stands uncontestable, as illustrated by what world powers?
9 The wise observation as made about three thousand years ago and as recorded in the Holy Bible remains uncontestable even today. It is recorded in Proverbs 19:21, and, according to the Jerusalem Bible translation of this proverb from the Hebrew language, it reads: “Plans multiply in the human heart, but the purpose of Yahweh stands firm.” (See also The New English Bible and Revised Standard Version.) The name Yahweh here is the pronunciation of the divine name that is preferred by some to the pronunciation Jehovah. Human plans, schemes and devices have multiplied throughout the past centuries and millenniums, but have they succeeded in standing firm and producing permanent gains and controls? Where today are the famous political empires that once held wide control, particularly the seven world powers of Bible history and prophecy? Where is the ancient Egyptian World Power, also the Assyrian, the Babylonian, the Medo-Persian, the Grecian, the Roman, the Anglo-American? Where is the incomparable British Empire that once embraced one fourth of the earth’s surface and a quarter of its population? Their glory has faded.
10, 11. (a) What indicates that Jehovah’s purpose regarding his kingdom moves forward to brilliant success? (b) What shows that Christendom’s growth has not been by preaching God’s kingdom?
10 What, though, about the counsel of Jehovah or “purpose of Yahweh”? It still stands firm, unchanged. It continues to prevail and to move forward to brilliant success. The kingdom of God continues to be preached world wide, this proclamation surpassing everything that has been known thus far in religious history.
11 By the expression “the kingdom of God” we do not mean the religious organization of Christendom. For the first time in history the religious membership of Christendom has passed the billion mark, the latest published estimate of her membership being given as 1,024,106,500. (See The World Almanac, 1974, page 342.) But this growth has not been achieved by preaching the kingdom of God. It was the churches of Christendom that declared that the League of Nations is “the political expression of the Kingdom of God on earth.” So, as long as that political organization for world peace and security continued, the churches preached the League of Nations. Christendom’s plan or scheme has also been “to put God in government.” For that reason her clergymen dabble in politics, and the clergymen urge their church members to involve themselves to the full in politics, even aspiring to the highest political offices in the land.
12. How do the words and course of Jesus and his disciples reflect on Christendom’s efforts “to put God in government”?
12 However, does Jehovah God want to be put in political government of this world? If He is not already there, why does He have to be put in these human political governments? His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, when asked by a Roman politician, “Are you the king of the Jews?” answered: “My kingdom is no part of this world. If my kingdom were part of this world, my attendants would have fought that I should not be delivered up to the Jews. But, as it is, my kingdom is not from this source.” With reference to his true disciples, this Jesus said: “They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world.” (John 18:33-36; 17:14) Neither Jesus nor his true disciples of the first century C.E. made any attempt “to put God in government.” Christendom’s multiplied plans to put the God of the Bible into the political governments of this world prove that she is not preaching the true kingdom of God and that her church members are not true disciples and imitators of God’s own Son, Jesus Christ. Christendom is not the visible earthly expression of God’s kingdom.
13. How has Christendom’s plan to convert the world to her churches apparently failed, in spite of revivals and crusades?
13 For centuries Christendom’s plan has been to convert the world of mankind, either by force or by persuasion, and to make them members of her churches. The ostensible idea behind this was to get them to heaven and to save them from going to a place of everlasting conscious torment as disembodied souls. Christendom’s thought, too, was that in this way God’s kingdom would come and his will would be done on earth as in heaven. (Matthew 6:9, 10) But Christendom’s unscriptural plan for world conversion has apparently failed, as the number of non-Christians continues to be more than double that of Christendom’s membership and as antireligious forces, especially Communism, increase and more and more of Christendom’s members become religious hypocrites or nonactive. Her religious revivals and crusades prove to be of short-lived effect.
14. Human plans have been based on what or inspired by what, with what outlook resulting for mankind?
14 Were the survival and salvation of the human race dependent upon the plans of men, all would be lost for mankind. Their multifarious plans are either based on human wisdom or inspired by malicious spirit demons. Self-reliant men might like to pooh-pooh the suggestion, but what was prophesied nineteen hundred years ago is more true today than they care to believe, that in “later periods of time some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired utterances and teachings of demons.” (1 Timothy 4:1) Because men have fallen away or deserted from the faith set forth in God’s written Word, they have ignored God’s plainly stated purpose. They are like the first human pair in the Garden of Eden. “This only I have found,” said the wise man Solomon, “that the true God made mankind upright, but they themselves have sought out many plans.” (Ecclesiastes 7:29) Because of the failure of their plans, one after another, they have been obliged to reshape or remake their plans or schemes.
15, 16. The continuing of worldly nations in a United Nations organization is in the nature of what against Jehovah, and what Scriptural warning is there against it?
16 “A wicked man has put on a bold face, but the upright is the one that will firmly establish his ways. There is no wisdom, nor any discernment, nor any counsel in opposition to Jehovah. The horse is something prepared for the day of battle, but salvation belongs to Jehovah.”—Proverbs 21:29-31.
17. What divisive factors dominate the increased number of nations, and why can unification of mankind not come by them?
17 A United Nations organization with its Security Council and its Disarmament Conference is not God’s way for unification of all mankind in a warless and secure earth. Since World War II of 1939-1945 C.E. mankind has been divided up into more national groups than ever before, each group claiming national sovereignty. The division of the human race is increased by language differences, varying customs, opposing political aims and ideologies, and racial and religious prejudices. Self-determination and self-preservation are the dominant factors. World government by man is impossible, and the unifying of all mankind will not come by this means. The world of mankind cannot be united among themselves, for they are not united to the one living and true God, Jehovah. His Son, Jesus Christ, said that the ruler of this world is Satan the Devil, the ruler of the demons. In harmony with that, the Christian apostle Paul said that this ruler of the world is also “the god of this system of things,” who blinds the minds of those not at unity with Jehovah God.—John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11; 2 Corinthians 4:4.
18, 19. (a) Where must order and unity be restored, and why? (b) To this end, what has God purposed to carry on “at the full limit of the appointed times”?
19 “He [God] made known to us the sacred secret of his will. It is according to his good pleasure which he purposed in himself for an administration at the full limit of the appointed times, namely, to gather all things together again [or, to reunite for himself (under one head) the all things] in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth. Yes, in him, in union with whom we were also assigned as heirs, in that we were foreordained according to the purpose of him who operates all things according to the way his will counsels.”—Ephesians 1:9-11, NW; Rotherham, Diaglott.
20, 21. (a) In every nation there is complaint on the part of the people against what? (b) What did Solomon show to be the valid reason for the people’s restiveness?
21 “I myself returned that I might see all the acts of oppression that are being done under the sun, and, look! the tears of those being oppressed, but they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power, so that they had no comforter. And I congratulated the dead who had already died rather than the living who were still alive.”—Ecclesiastes 4:1, 2. Also Ec 5:8; 7:7.
22. After thousands of years of oppression by human administration, what is the case about comfort and deliverance for mankind?
22 At times the people are driven to act like crazy because of the oppression. (Ecclesiastes 7:7) After thousands of years of oppression, and in the face of world conditions today, it proves to be true that the oppressed people have no comforter from any part of the present worldly administration of human affairs. There is no salvation for them, no deliverance for them, from human sources.
23. According to God’s purpose, how will unification of all the people come about, and what will this mean for them?
23 The need for a better administration or managing of affairs the all-wise God foresaw long ago, and, according to his good pleasure, he purposed to institute such an administration. Under that administrating of affairs by him there will come the unification of all the people. That will mean peace, harmony and security everywhere on earth.
24. Who is the unification agent by whom God will administer things, and what is the definite purpose for this administration?
24 Let us take a look at how God Almighty proceeded to administer affairs. Let us look at the unification agent by means of whom God administers things. That one is God’s Messiah, his Anointed One, the Christ. Hence, the inspired Bible writer points to that one when he says that the administration that is to be set in operation “at the full limit of the appointed times” is for a definite purpose, “namely, to gather all things together again in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth. Yes, in him, in union with whom we were also assigned as heirs.” (Ephesians 1:9-11) There is a lot of prejudice and animosity toward this Jesus Christ in both the religious and the nonreligious sections of mankind; and yet, what kind of administration are we to expect from God through him?
25, 26. (a) What did Psalm 72 say prophetically regarding the Messiah’s dealing with the poor people? (b) What record is given in Acts 10:37-39 about the relief work done by the Messiah Jesus?
26 “You know the subject that was talked about throughout the whole of Judea, starting from Galilee after the baptism that John preached, namely, Jesus who was from Nazareth, how God anointed him with holy spirit and power, and he went through the land doing good and healing all those oppressed by the Devil; because God was with him. And we are witnesses of all the things he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; but they also did away with him by hanging him on a stake.”—Acts 10:37-39.
27, 28. (a) How did Jesus come to have a double claim upon King David’s kingdom over Israel? (b) In agreement with that, what did Isaiah 9:6, 7 say about the princely rule of the Messiah?
28 “To the abundance of the princely rule and to peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom in order to establish it firmly and to sustain it by means of justice and by means of righteousness, from now on and to time indefinite. The very zeal of Jehovah of armies will do this.”—Isaiah 9:6, 7.
29. Thus Messiah’s princely rule will be of what kind, and why will it not come by democratic vote of the people?
30, 31. (a) How did God give a guarantee of the promised government of the Christ? (b) How did Peter bear witness to this fact at Acts 10:40-43?
31 “God raised this One up on the third day and granted him to become manifest, not to all the people, but to witnesses appointed beforehand by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after his rising from the dead. Also, he ordered us to preach to the people and to give a thorough witness that this is the One decreed by God to be judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear witness, that everyone putting faith in him gets forgiveness of sins through his name.”—Acts 10:40-43.
32. So God could now proceed to do what gathering work, and with whom as his Agent for reuniting things?
32 That this resurrected Jesus Christ might be able to serve as God’s Agent in reuniting things, God exalted him to the divine throne in the heavens. (Acts 2:33-36; 1 Peter 3:22) Thus God could proceed to “gather all things together again in the Christ,” not only the things on the earth but also the “things in the heavens.” Jesus Christ is thereby a heavenly, superhuman Messiah, with greater powers for doing good in behalf of the people than when he was down here on earth as a perfect man. All mankind will be unified under him as the Head appointed by God the Great Administrator.
33. What did God purpose for the Christ to have associated with him in taking care of human affairs, and so what is first formed on earth?
33 However, God purposed that his Son Jesus Christ should have a body of associates with him in taking care of human affairs. These associates ruling over mankind were to be taken from among mankind. While yet on earth these were to be formed into a congregation having a bond of unity with him. The apostle Paul, when writing to the congregation in Ephesus, continued on to say: “It is according to the operation of the mightiness of [God’s] strength, with which he has operated in the case of the Christ when he raised him up from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above every government and authority and power and lordship and every name named, not only in this system of things, but also in that to come. He also subjected all things under his feet, and made him head over all things to the congregation, which is his body.”—Ephesians 1:19-23.
34. From what sources were members of the “body” to be taken, and how was the barrier in between removed?
34 Now what about the members of this congregation, the “body” of Jesus Christ? Well, it was God’s generous purpose that it should be made up not only of those who had been circumcised Jews but also of those who had been non-Jews or Gentiles. For 1,545 years (from 1513 B.C.E. to 33 C.E.) they had been disunited. The barrier, “the wall in between that fenced them off,” was the Law covenant mediated by the prophet Moses in the year 1513 B.C.E. In the year 33 C.E. Jesus Christ was used by God as the means by which to remove this barrier through his death on the torture stake. As the apostle continues on to say: “By means of his flesh [hung on the torture stake] he abolished the enmity, the Law of commandments consisting in decrees, that he might create the two peoples in union with himself into one new man and make peace; and that he might fully reconcile both peoples in one body to God through the torture stake, because he had killed off the enmity by means of himself.”—Ephesians 2:14-16.
35. (a) When were the uncircumcised Gentiles brought into the congregational “body”? (b) How many members was the body to have?
35 Three and a half years after the removal of the legal barrier, God began bringing Gentiles, non-Jews, into the congregational “body” of Jesus Christ. This God did by sending the apostle Peter to preach the message of the kingdom of God’s Messiah to interested uncircumcised Gentiles. When these accepted the Kingdom message, God anointed them with holy spirit and they got baptized as Christians. (Acts 10:1-48) After that, and especially after the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in the year 70 C.E., many Gentiles were baptized into the congregational “body” of Jesus Christ; thus they were united with him as their spiritual “head.” Just as a human body had a definite number of members in order to be complete, so this congregational “body” of Christ had a definite limited number of members. The last book of the Holy Bible plainly says that the number of “body” members is limited to 12 × 12,000, or 144,000.—Revelation 7:4-8; 14:1-3.
36, 37. (a) Why is there need for a unification work within the congregational “body” of the Christ? (b) For that purpose, what has God through Christ bestowed upon the congregation?
37 “The very one [namely, Jesus Christ] that descended is also the one that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might give fullness to all things. And he gave some [gifts] as apostles, some as prophets, some as evangelizers, some as shepherds and teachers, with a view to the readjustment of the holy ones, for ministerial work, for the building up of the body of the Christ, until we all attain to the oneness in the faith and in the accurate knowledge of the Son of God, . . . speaking the truth, let us by love grow up in all things into him who is the head, Christ.”—Ephesians 4:8-15.
38, 39. (a) Why could Christendom not be that “body of the Christ”? (b) Because of the fruitage she has borne, what will happen to her?
38 Christendom makes the claim that she is this “body of the Christ.” But how could such a thing ever be? For after more than sixteen centuries of operation she has ingloriously failed to attain to such Christian unity. She is split a thousand ways, by religious sects, all teaching different conflicting doctrines. She is not one religious “body,” not one church. Her separate religious sects are not the separate or individual branches in the Christ’s “vine.” (John 15:1-8) This is true in spite of Christendom’s World Council of Churches. Christendom’s religion has proved to be one of the most divisive forces in human experience. On this account her record has been a gory one, stinking with human blood.
39 This is not the fruitage of true Christianity. Jesus Christ said: “A good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, neither can a rotten tree produce fine fruit. Every tree not producing fine fruit gets cut down and thrown into the fire. Really, then, by their fruits you will recognize those men.” (Matthew 7:18-20) As a rotten tree, Christendom is bound to get cut down shortly and destroyed as if consumed by fire. She will not fare any better than the other members of religious Babylon the Great, the world empire of false religion.—Revelation 17:1 through 18:8.
40. What must we say as to whether, because of Christendom’s state, God’s purpose to have a unified congregation has failed?
40 What, then? Has God’s purpose to have a unified congregation that is gathered together in one under the Head Jesus Christ failed? No! Christendom’s unbiblical plans for the future are failing, but not so God’s purpose. He is not depending upon Christendom to furnish the members of the heavenly kingdom, which God will use in administering earthly affairs for the unity of mankind. All those who want to be God’s people He tells to get out of Christendom and out of all the rest of Babylon the Great. (Revelation 18:4) Christendom is not the way into the privileges of the Messianic kingdom of God. The things that she practices debar her from any part in the reuniting work by that heavenly government. The apostle Paul goes on to say to members of God’s true Christian congregation: “You know this, recognizing it for yourselves, that no fornicator or unclean person or greedy person—which means being an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of the Christ and of God.”—Ephesians 5:5.
41. In spite of opposition by Babylon the Great, what does God now have in unity on earth, and theirs is a gathering of what kind of things?
41 In spite of all the opposition of Christendom and other members of Babylon the Great, yes, in spite of Satan the Devil and his demons with whom God’s true people have a struggle, God has now on earth his remnant, the final ones who are in line to have a part in God’s administering of human affairs through Jesus Christ, their Head. In spite of coming from various races and nations, they are a united congregation, all of them holding unitedly to the one invisible heavenly Head, Jesus Christ. Thus, in their case, God has ‘gathered together again in the Christ’ the “things in the heavens,” inasmuch as even now God has “seated [them] together in the heavenly places in union with Christ Jesus” and they are also heirs of the heavenly Kingdom.—Ephesians 1:10; 2:6.
42. What prophetic command of Christ is the remnant carrying out, and who are now associating with the remnant?
42 Since the end of the Gentile Times in the year 1914 they have unitedly been acting upon Jesus’ prophetic command: “This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; [after which] the end will come.” (Matthew 24:14) Associated with this remnant of Christ’s congregational body are hundreds of thousands of dedicated worshipers of Jehovah God who have obeyed His command to come out of Babylon the Great. (Revelation 7:9-17) All together they are known world wide as Jehovah’s Christian witnesses.
43, 44. (a) The time has neared for action by what against what? (b) According to Galatians 4:4, when did God send to earth the one who was to be his Chief Servant in the administration?
44 “When the full limit of the time arrived, God sent forth his Son, who came to be out of a woman and who came to be under law, that he might release by purchase those [Jews] under law, that we, in turn, might receive the adoption as sons. Now because you are sons, God has sent forth the spirit of his Son into our hearts and it cries out: ‘Abba, Father!’”—Galatians 4:4-6.
45. At what time did the gathering work begin in its first stage, and why?
45 When God’s Son Jesus Christ was glorified in heaven and founded the Christian congregation at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost of 33 C.E., the “administration at the full limit of the appointed times” started operation in its first stage, the most essential stage. The congregation of those who were to be associates in the unifying work with Jesus Christ in the heavens had to be gathered and unified under its Head, God’s Chief Servant. In this way “the things in the heavens,” the things destined for the heavens, would be ‘gathered together again in the Christ,’ so that the “body” used by God in his administration might be complete.—Ephesians 1:9-11.
46, 47. (a) When did the due time arrive for the second feature of God’s “administration,” namely, the gathering together in Christ of “the things on the earth”? (b) From then onward the second stage of the gathering work went into operation under whose “administration”?
46 However, according to God’s purpose, the due time must come for the second feature of his “administration,” namely, to ‘gather together again in the Christ’ “the things on the earth.” This time arrived when the Gentile Times came to their fulfillment in autumn of the year 1914 C.E. There the time came for the Messianic Kingdom rule as formerly exercised by King David over in the Middle East to be reinstated, not in earthly Jerusalem, but in the heavens.
47 In heaven, at God’s right hand, was where the permanent Heir of King David was now located, namely, the Lord Jesus Christ. Then it was that Jehovah installed this heavenly Heir of King David on the throne, with royal power not just over the territory of ancient Israel but over all the earth, over all mankind for whom Jesus Christ had died as a perfect human sacrifice. Thereby the Kingdom of the Messiah went into operation. At that time, in a culminating way, the “full limit of the appointed times” had been reached when the “administration” that God was conducting ‘should gather together again in the Christ’ the estranged “things on the earth.” This would be the second stage of the gathering or uniting work according to God’s purpose.
48. In view of unification failures on a large scale since 1914, what must go in its entirety?
48 In 1914 World War I broke out, dividing the world into two opposing economic, political camps. The postwar League of Nations failed to unify mankind. Now the United Nations continues to fail in unifying mankind. It was Christendom, the most powerful religious organization on earth, that failed to prevent two world wars, and, till now, she has failed to unify mankind in true peace and security. Not just these political and religious organizations will have to go, but the whole man-made system of things. It will go completely in the coming “great tribulation” such as mankind has never before experienced.—Matthew 24:21, 22.
49. What is the only means for the salvation of the human race, and what kind of prospects now lie ahead of mankind?
49 The Only means of salvation for us humans is the heavenly Messianic kingdom, which God purposed ever since our first parents, Adam and Eve, sinned in the garden of Eden and disunited themselves from God their Creator. (Genesis 3:15; Romans 16:20) Now that the “full limit of the appointed times” has been reached in a complete sense, we find ourselves in a day with the finest of prospects ahead!
50. Who on earth today are hailing the Kingdom, and how are they showing where they stand as to rulership?
50 Shortly there will be completed the full membership of the heavenly Kingdom, the 144,000 Kingdom heirs under their Head, Jesus Christ. God’s unchanged purpose with regard to this Messianic kingdom will succeed, with glory, honor and vindication for Himself. Already a crowd of people from everywhere on earth discern that God has put the Kingdom in heavenly power, and they hail it joyfully and with loyal devotion. This crowd is already great, but it is still increasing as “this good news of the kingdom” continues to be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations. (Matthew 24:14) To prove where they now stand, they wholeheartedly join the still surviving remnant of Kingdom heirs in this preaching and in giving this worldwide witness.
51. So why may it be said that the work of gathering together the things on the earth under Christ has begun?
51 The last book of the Bible envisions this “great crowd” as giving their first attention to the heavenly throne of Jehovah God and to his Chief Servant used in his administration and crying out gratefully: “Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.” (Revelation 7:9, 10) Although this “great crowd” is made up of people from all nations, tribes, peoples and tongues, they seek to be unified under God’s Chief Servant, Jesus Christ. They are at unity with the Kingdom remnant and are at unity among themselves. Unitedly they worship God at his spiritual temple and render to him sacred service day and night. So it may be said that, already, in this unified “great crowd,” the work of ‘gathering all the things on the earth’ into the Christ has begun, in accord with God’s “administration.” What a reassuring token of things soon to come!—Revelation 7:14-17.
52. What will this “great crowd” survive, and why will Satan and his demons be unable to interfere with their restoring of Paradise?
52 The last book of the Bible also gives assurance that this “great crowd” of worshipers of the one living and true God will come out of the “great tribulation” as survivors of this world calamity with which the whole earthly man-made system of things will be brought to an end as a complete failure. The thrilling task of transforming all the earth into a Paradise garden will stretch out before them. Satan the Devil and his spirit demons will be unable to interfere with this peaceful beautification work, for they will be bound and isolated in an abyss from which they cannot interfere with what goes on here on earth. Protectively over the “great crowd” on earth there will be the heavenly Messianic kingdom with authority to regulate earth’s affairs for a thousand years.—Revelation 20:1-6.
53. (a) For the gathering together again of all the “things on the earth” into unity under Christ, what will be required? (b) How will the resisters of the unification be dealt with?
53 Thus God’s new order on earth will start off with a unified human society. But the unification work of the heavenly Messianic kingdom will not then be over. Throughout the millennium of its reign over the earth there must take place the miraculous resurrection of the human dead for whom Jesus Christ died as a ransom sacrifice. (1 Timothy 2:5, 6; John 1:29, 36) These billions of resurrected humans will all have to be brought together into a unity under Jesus Christ, the Chief Servant in God’s “administration.” The ultimate purpose of this is to bring about at length their unification with the Universal Sovereign, Jehovah God. This will require the uplifting of all the obedient ones of mankind to the human perfection such as Adam and Eve had at their creation in the Garden of Eden. All the disobedient resisters of such unification, yes, too, Satan and his demons, will be destroyed everlastingly, never again to be disturbers of the peace.—Revelation 20:7-15; Acts 24:15.
54. With what are we comforted today, and to the success of what do we look forward, with blessings in store?
54 All honor to the Supreme Administrator, Jehovah God! He not only purposes but also faithfully fulfills his purpose. Let us all take courage, then! Although we see all human plans for earth’s administration disastrously failing today, we are comforted with the blessed knowledge of God’s all-excellent purpose. Confidently we look forward to seeing and experiencing the success of God’s purpose. Forever we expect to enjoy the endless blessings therefrom! | 2019-04-18T12:43:59 | https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1101974001 |

Little: Mom, why do you take bites rotating around your plate, so that everything comes out “even”?
Bigger: Y’all are ALL crazy!
Bigger: Everyone knows you take one bite of burger, then three bites of fries! | 2019-04-26T01:43:23 | https://robinatrecess.com/?p=2341 |
We found this rotating plate in the cupboard. We throwed the microwave oven out years ago, but for whatever reason we kept the glass rotating plate. When we tried to figure out what should we do with it the idea came: we should turn it into a cake plate!
When we tried to find some inspiration for the design we bumped into an article about modern architectures. The North Transept Window of the Lincoln Cathedral caught our eyes. That's almost perfect for our purpose. We just had to change the middle, because there are three handles on the bottom of the rotating plate, so the center should have three big holes instead of four.
The printing itself was tricky, because this is the biggest print we printed with our new printer so far. And it barely fit - the head almost touched the sides on both side. The printed part is 16 centimeters (about 6.3 inches) in diameter, which is way under the theoretical maximum of 20 centimeters (about 7.8 inches) of the printer, but it seems the 20 centimeter maximum is really just a theory. Apart from that the print went without any problem, but took more than eight hours. | 2019-04-24T08:14:24 | https://www.printingin3d.eu/item/cake-plate |
"As I packed for my two weeks in nearby mountains, I made up a selection of teas to try with friends and these included your top Da Yu Ling, 2015 Concubine Oolong and 7542 sheng puerh 1999.
All of these teas had been pleasant enough to try in Montreal, but none came across with the expected wonderful qualities, whether in a gaiwan or teapot, Brita filtered water, double filtered, etc. In fact, I was wondering if it was worth the expense of reordering these special teas.
To my amazement, each of the three, brewed in water from my vacation area, was a complete revelation. The pure, freshness of Da Yu Ling, deep, sweet, tingling quality of the puerh and roasted, honey-like richness of the Concubine Oolong; miraculous flavours came through with such ringing clarity, no fussing with temperature or filtering of water. I had one simple 250 ml red clay Yixing pot with a broken lid, left behind last summer and it served for all three. The clean air and pine scents probably contributed, but the water was softer than city water, fresh and cold.
Although I haven't been able to recreate the experience at home, It remains in my mind as a high note and reference for all my tea brewing throughout the year. Luckily, the filtered ‘hard’ water at home does bring out nice flavours in a few other teas, leading me to think that there may be a good water-tea match to be made in almost any circumstance if one experiments.
I would like to know your thoughts when time allows."
Thank you very much, Elisabeth, for sharing this interesting story connecting tea and travel. I recently made similar experiences with the teas I brought to Europe. All the changes have an impact on the tea, but I think that you have correctly identified the factor which has the highest impact: WATER.
A cup of tea is 99% of water! Before we focus on the 1%, we have to get the 99% right! Too many teas are ruined by waters that are heavy with Chlorine or minerals. Tang dynasty writer Lu Yu (733-804) wrote the first book (Cha Jing) about tea. He insisted on water quality as he found out that “the best water comes from mountain sources. Next is river water in valleys, where the river is neither too quick nor too slow. And worst are most underground waters from wells. Water at the bottom of a cascade is also very bad, because it is too agitated, sour."
But it’s not just heavy waters that make tea taste bad. Distilled and reverse osmosis waters also don’t make good tea, because they are so pure that they lack the energy and life that comes from natural water."
The first step to solve the water problem is to realize that you have a problem!
Then, it's a matter of testing your teas with different waters and/or experimenting with additives (like bamboo charcoal, which you can find here). An under counter water filter system usually performs better than a simple Brita filter. At home, I'm using a 2 step filter system with a 5 micron pre filter and a Pentair/Everpure water filter. This gives me good results, very close to my favorite local mineral water. What filter(s) to use will depend on the profile of your tap water, how heavy it is.
For mineral water, I recommend to try those with fewer than 200 mg of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). This information is always on the label.
Summer travels can be a great opportunity to rediscover your teas and taste how sensitive they are to changes in water, mood, tea ware... I'm glad that you could get the most of these 3 great teas thanks to a switch to fresh water!
So what is your favourite local mineral water?
In Taiwan, my favorite mineral water is "Yes". | 2019-04-20T06:25:50 | http://teamasters.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-importance-of-good-water.html |
An airport at Mena was the dream of interested pilots and hobby flyers in the 1930’s. A rough flying field was started on the McBride property south of town in the early 40’s. In 1942, Hartzell Geyer built the first hangar and opened a small flying school. In 1946, serious construction began as the Civil Aeronautics Commission (now the FAA) chose the site as an emergency landing strip for commercial aircraft. The chosen site would be located the approximate midway point between Fort Smith and Texarkana making it a desirable place approximately 100 miles from those airports. Mayor Albert Middleton requested the property under Eminent Domain from the McBride estate.
In the early years, the grass field was maintained by an agreement with a farmer who mowed and bailed the runway for the hay; a tradition that remains today. After development of the airstrip, several businesses began to service aircraft at the remote but centrally located airport. Popularity of the airport has continued to grow through the years.
Today, Mena Intermountain Municipal Airport is a city owned, general aviation airport in west Arkansas. Located 2 miles from the city center, the airport occupies 1,079 acres. Most of this land is available for commercial lease. The lands currently under lease provide the funds for the operations at the airport, allowing the airport to operate without financial burden on the City of Mena and the local taxpayers. In fact, the airport provides approximately $2000 worth of economic benefit for every resident in Polk County annually to the local marketplace according to the Arkansas State Aviation System Plan.

Humans have long assigned healing, calming properties to water. A meditative state of inner peace, a sense of mindfulness is triggered when we’re in or near water. Beach walks on Padre Island, now that I’ve retired, bring me sandy treasures and inspirations for new works. Natural specimens, shells, rocks and flora are my gifts from the sea. I compose these “gifts” to create my Coastal Art. Viewing my Art, I hope you feel sand in your toes, smell the salt air and feel the gentleness of the surf. | 2019-04-22T22:14:07 | https://txartsandcraftsfair.com/kathy-scofield/ |

Well, things have been going so-so.
I had applied for a WAH Job and I was denied at this time. Which is fine. I would only be making $9 with Benefits Part-time anyway.
I had also applied for another Position in my Company at $11-$15 an hour, 40 Hours a Week and I find out the Results next week. Nerve Wrecking until I find out.
Right now I make $10 and work Split Shift- It is hard on my family because they watch my daughter. My New Job I would have to work on Saturdays and they don't want that either. So I am a little peeved. I Pay Rent and everything, I just need them to work with me too. I am trying My Best to get off the Split Shift.
I am doing 4 AutoSurfs, 10 PTRs and some other things Online to make a little Cash. It is a Process until I get better at it and since I have no time this is what I do.
Hmmmm I am hoping I can get on my feet soon and not have to worry so much.
Oh and thanks y'all for the Comments. Much Appreciated.
Trying to keep up with all my Journals and such.
Well I had finally found a way to Make Money Online and I am doing pretty good with it.
I have been looking at all the Get Paids and Investment Programs online and let me tell you, there are ALOT.
I had also started a Blog and Website on the Topic. It was nice to do those things again.
My Friend was trying to get to Sign up for Pampered Chef, and although I would like to, I REALLY don't have the time for it.
Just been keeping up with the bills and such. | 2019-04-24T10:08:27 | https://jacquelynrose.savingadvice.com/2005/09/ |
Capcom on Wednesday released the first trailer for Resident Evil 7 that features actual gameplay footage. If you thought the Beginning Hour trailer was creepy, you haven’t seen anything yet.
In a post on the PlayStation blog, Capcom social media specialist Kellen Haney says that while the girl is the main focus of the footage, you won’t be playing her in the main game.
Resident Evil 7 is set in Dulvey, Louisiana, where something isn’t quite right. Jack and Marguerite Baker have been missing for quite some time and there’s no shortage of rumors regarding what may have happened to them. If you recall, at the end of Beginning Hour, there’s a tagline that reads, “Meet the Family.” Players also get a glimpse at Jack Baker although how that all ties into this new trailer isn’t clear.
Capcom appears to be taking an entirely different direction with this game compared to previous releases. It could be a refreshing approach although diehard fans of the Resident Evil universe are already voicing their displeasure that none of the franchise’s previous characters will be featured in this game.
Resident Evil 7 lands on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC on January 24, 2017. | 2019-04-22T10:59:06 | http://static.techspot.com/news/66009-check-out-creepy-resident-evil-7-gameplay-video.html |

This appendix describes the required steps that you must perform before you can use any types, synonyms, or PL/SQL packages related to Oracle semantic technologies support in the current Oracle Database release. You must run one or more scripts, and you must ensure that Spatial is installed and the Partitioning option is enabled. These requirements are explained in Section A.1.
Downgrade the semantic technologies support to that provided with a previous Oracle Database release, as explained in Section A.2.
Remove all support for semantic technologies from the database, as explained in Section A.3.
Section A.1.1, "Enabling Semantic Technologies Support in a New Database Installation"
Section A.1.2, "Upgrading Semantic Technologies Support from Release 11.1"
Section A.1.3, "Upgrading Semantic Technologies Support from Release 10.2"
If you upgraded to Release 11.2.0.2.0 and your Semantic Technologies installation is invalid, see Section A.1.4, "Release 11.2.0.2: Required Actions if Semantic Technologies Installation is Invalid"
In addition, you must ensure that Spatial is installed and the Partitioning option is enabled, as explained in Section A.1.5.
If a semantic network already exists, or if any semantic technologies types, tables, or PL/SQL packages already exist, the catsem.sql script exits with an error.
If you use Workspace Manager with RDF data, you must also run the appropriate script after you run catsem.sql, as explained in Section 6.1, "Enabling Workspace Manager Support for RDF Data".
If you are upgrading from Oracle Database Release 11.1 that includes the semantic technologies support for Release 11.1, the semantic technologies support is automatically upgraded to Release 11.2 when the database is upgraded. If you use Workspace Manager with RDF data, you must also run the appropriate script after the upgrade of semantic technologies support, as explained in Section 6.1, "Enabling Workspace Manager Support for RDF Data".
However, you will also need to migrate RDF data if you have an existing Release 11.1 RDF network containing triples that include typed literal values of type xsd:float, xsd:double, xsd:boolean, or xsd:time.
If the FLOAT_DOUBLE_DECIMAL, XSD_TIME, or XSD_BOOLEAN attributes have the string value INVALID or if the DATA_CONVERSION_CHECK attribute has the string value FAILED_UNABLE_TO_LOCK_APPLICATION_TABLES, FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_WORKSPACE_PRIVILEGES, or FAILED_OLS_POLICIES_ARE_ENABLED, you need to migrate RDF data.
However, if the FLOAT_DOUBLE_DECIMAL, XSD_TIME, and XSD_BOOLEAN attributes do not exist or have the string value VALID and if the DATA_CONVERSION_CHECK attribute does not exist, you do not need to migrate RDF data. However, if your semantic network may have any empty RDF literals, see Section A.1.2.1, "Handling of Empty RDF Literals"; and if you choose to migrate existing empty literals to the new format, follow the steps in this section.
Ensure that any OLS policies for RDF data are temporarily disabled (optional: only necessary if OLS for RDF Data is being used). OLS policies can be re-enabled after running convert_old_rdf_data.
The sdo_rdf_internal.convert_old_rdf_data procedure may take a significant amount of time to run if the semantic network contains many triples that are using (or affected by use of) xsd:float, xsd:double, xsd:time, or xsd:boolean typed literals.
You may encounter the ORA-00904 (invalid identifier) error when executing a SEM_MATCH query if the sdo_rdf_internal.convert_old_rdf_data procedure and the semrelod.sql script were not run after the upgrade to Release 11.2.
The way empty-valued RDF literals are handled has changed in Release 11.2. Before this release, the values of empty-valued literals were converted to "orardf:null ". In Release 11.2, such values are stored without modification (that is, as ""). However, whether you migrate existing "orardf:null " values to "" is optional.
If the NULL_LITERAL attribute has the value EXISTS, then "orardf:null " values are present in your semantic network.
If you are upgrading from Oracle Database Release 10.2 that includes the semantic technologies support for Release 10.2, the actions required depend on whether there is an existing RDF network.
If there is not an existing RDF network, skip the rest of this section and follow the instructions in Section A.1.1, "Enabling Semantic Technologies Support in a New Database Installation".
Connect to the database (Release 11.2) as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges (SYS AS SYSDBA, and enter the SYS account password when prompted).
The catsem10i.sql script enables Release 11.2 semantic technologies support and migrates RDF data from Release 10.2 to Release 11.2 format. The script may take a long time to run if the existing Release 10.2 RDF network contains a large amount of RDF data.
When running sdordfctx.sql, you can ignore any ORA-01921, ORA-02303, ORA-00955, and ORA-29809 errors.
Executing sys.validate_sdo is needed only if SDO is invalid, which it could be if Semantic Technologies is invalid; however, there is no harm in executing sys.validate_sdo in any case.
Oracle Spatial must be installed before you can use any of the RDF and OWL capabilities. Oracle Locator is not sufficient. For information about Spatial and Locator, see Oracle Spatial Developer's Guide.
The Partitioning option must be enabled before you can use any of the RDF and OWL capabilities. For licensing information about the Partitioning option, see Oracle Database Licensing Information. For usage information about partitioning, see Oracle Database VLDB and Partitioning Guide.
This section explains how to downgrade the semantic technologies support, in conjunction with an Oracle Database downgrade to Release 11.1 or 10.2.
Downgrading is strongly discouraged, except for rare cases where it is necessary. If you downgrade to a previous release, you will not benefit from bug fixes and enhancements that have been made in intervening releases.
If you have enabled Workspace Manager support for RDF data, you must remove that support before you downgrade semantic technologies support in the database, as explained in Section 6.1.1.
If you need to downgrade to Oracle Database Release 11.1, the semantic technologies component will be downgraded automatically when you downgrade the database. However, any RDF or OWL data that is specific to Release 11.2 (that is, Release 11.2 RDF/OWL persistent structures that are not supported in previous versions) must be dropped before you perform the downgrade, so that the database is compatible with Release 11.1.
If you have any virtual models that you want to be able to re-create after the download, run the semvmrecreate.sql script (if you have not already done so), as explained earlier in this section.
Remove any Release 11.2 release-specific RDF or OWL data (including virtual models) if you have not already done so, as explained earlier in this section.
Connect to the Release 11.1 database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges (SYS AS SYSDBA, and enter the SYS account password when prompted).
After the semrelod111.sql script completes successfully, Oracle semantic technologies support for Release 11.1 is enabled and ready to use, and all Release 11.1-compatible data is preserved.
If you want to enable support for virtual models, apply the Release 11.1.0.7 interim patch number 7600122.
If you previously generated a my_vm_recreate.sql script to re-create your virtual models after the downgrade, go to the my_dir_path location, connect to the database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges, start SQL*Plus, and run the my_vm_recreate.sql script.
If you need to downgrade to Oracle Database Release 10.2, follow the instructions in Section A.2.1 to downgrade to Release 11.1, and then follow the instructions in the rest of this section (taken from the Release 11.1 manual) to downgrade from Release 11.1 to Release 10.2.
If you need to downgrade to Oracle Database Release 10.2, and if you used Oracle Database Release 11 RDF or OWL features and want to preserve existing semantic data and rulebases, you must execute a statement to prepare for the downgrade, perform the downgrade, and execute another statement to restore the semantic data.
Entailed graph data will not be preserved, because the same information can be regenerated using the Oracle Database Release 10.2 RDF inference API.
No rulebases or rules indexes related to OWL are preserved, because Oracle Database Release 10.2 did not support the OWL vocabulary.
Before the database downgrade, connect to the Release 11 database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges (SYS AS SYSDBA, and enter the SYS account password when prompted).
When this statement executes successfully, all existing semantic data and rulebases are saved. You will restore the semantic data after the database downgrade.
Connect to the Release 10.2 database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges.
Where <tablespace-name> is the name of the tablespace in which the RDF network will be created.
When this statement executes successfully, all semantic data that had been saved before the downgrade is restored and ready to use.
This section explains how to remove the semantic technologies support from the database. Removing this support is strongly discouraged, unless you have a strong reason for doing it. After you remove this support, no applications or database users will be able to use any types, synonyms, or PL/SQL packages related to Oracle semantic technologies support.
If you have enabled Workspace Manager support for RDF data, you must remove that support before you remove semantic technologies support from the database, as explained in Section 6.1.1. | 2019-04-20T18:20:39 | https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e25609/sem_enable.htm |

You need control to mix music well — control over levels, tones, dynamics, and clarity among other considerations. Behringer's X32 PRODUCER digital mixer puts that control at your fingertips with a control surface that combines the analog feel of faders, buttons, and knobs with the awesome power of digital processing. And Midas-designed preamps give each microphone input a high-fidelity start to its journey toward a great final mix.
Besides sixteen channels of mic inputs, the X32 PRODUCER sports six auxiliary 1/4" TRS inputs and a couple of RCAs so virtually any source can enter into this mixer's realm. Eight balanced XLR outputs provide the mixes for your PA speakers, monitors, or recording devices. Six 1/4" TRS and an RCA pair let you hook up even more outboard gear to your system if needed. You can assign the auxiliary inputs and outputs so they can be used as channel insertion points for outboard hardware. You can expand your X32 PRODUCER to full 32-in 16-out capabilities with the addition of a Behringer S-16 digital snake.
You can record up to 32 channels at once to your computer's DAW via a USB connection, for studio-quality multitrack live recording. For multi-channel inputs, the X32 PRODUCER is compatible with digital snakes, so you can use thin Cat-5e wires to connect to the stage instead of a thick multicore cable. Another connection lets you plug in an optional Behringer P16-M personal mixer, via Ethernet cable, for musician-controlled monitor mixing. And you can plug in a router to run your mixer wirelessly from an iPad®, iPhone®, or PC via the free apps.
When the mix is perfect, you can save your settings as a scene that you can recall for a later show, saving valuable set up time. You also have the ability to save a "snippet," a subset of the mixer's overall settings, like the vocal EQ and compression or the mix of a drum kit. Behringer loaded a collection of preset scenes and snippets to help get you started on your particular mix, including some from world-class music producers and sound engineers, who use X32s themselves. Just recall a scene and watch the automated faders fly to position.
Every input and output channel enjoys access to the channel strip controls that include gain, phantom power, high-pass filtering, a noise gate, limiter/compression, 4-band parametric equalization, and bus assignments. A push of the view button by each effect brings up a more detailed description on the 5" display. The other plug-in type effects, like reverbs and delays, also show up on the screen as virtual hardware devices when selected. Actuators adjust onscreen parameters and let you see and control functions like routing, mute groups, and scene recall.
You can fill each of the eight stereo effects slots with one of at least forty different effects, like graphic equalizers, compressors, including a multi-band version, different reverbs, delays, a pitch bender, even guitar amp simulations. Behringer modeled each plug-in to emulate or sound like a modern or classic piece of hardware.
Often you'll want fast access to often-used functions, like changing a delay time or disengaging a reverb when a vocalist speaks between songs. The X32 PRODUCER has assignable controls that give you up to 8 different user-programmed functions at your disposal. The first eight channels of the X32 PRODUCER can get assigned to Auto-Mix, which automatically lowers the levels of some of the mics when a prioritized mic is active, clearing up the sound in multi-mic panel discussions for instance. A 100-band RTA displays the spectrum of the sound so you can see any hot spots and dips that need equalization.
Overview: The Behringer X32 Producer is a 32-channel digital mixer that can be used for live performance and studio mixing applications. The mixer features 40 inputs, 25 busses, 16 mic preamps, and 17 motorized faders. It can be controlled by an iPhone or iPad through the free X32-Mix application. The X32 Producer comes with a dust cover and rack ears for installing the mixer in an equipment rack.
Channel Strip/Monitoring: The channel strip has dedicated controls for signal processing, with separate sub-sections for Config/Preamp, Gate/Dynamics, Equalizer, and Main Bus. There are also level controls for the headphone output and monitor output, plus talkback buttons and talkback level controls.
Display: The mixer has a high-resolution (800 x 400) 5" color display for showing you the mixer's settings. The bright, high contrast screen is visible in the daytime, which makes it ideal for outdoor applications. Six rotary, push-button encoders let you select and adjust the parameters, while up/down and left/right controls let you select the layers and pages. You can control effects, metering, routing, and other vital functions from the display. To the right of the display screen are the main stereo output level meter, and the solo level meter for the active solo channel. The 18-segment (-45 dB to clip) meters feature bright green, amber, and red LEDs.
Input Channels: This section features eight 100mm motorized faders. The mixer gives you control of all 32 input channels through four selectable banks of 8 channels each. In addition, you can control Aux inputs 1-6, USB playback and Effects Returns.
Group/Bus/Main Channels: The Group/Bus Channel section offers 8 channels strips divided into 4 layers: Digitally Controlled Amplifier (DCA) groups 1-8, Mix Bus Masters 1-8, Mix Bus Masters 9-16, and Matrix Outputs 1-6, plus the Main L/R output fader.
Various Assignments: The Assignment section of the mixer offers three banks of 8 buttons to give you customizable access to 24 random functions.
MIDAS Mic Preamps: The X32 Producer has 16 high-quality MIDAS-designed microphone preamps. MIDAS preamps are considered by industry experts as the industry's best sounding designs. The preamps provide high-quality audio reproduction in both live and studio applications. Each mic preamp can be setup and adjusted along many parameters, such as gain, phase, and phantom power. You can also insert effects, apply compression, engage low cut filters to remove unwanted low frequencies, and link adjacent channels together for stereo operation.
A/D-D/A Conversion: The X32 Producer uses Cirrus Logic A/D (analog-to-digital) and D/A (digital-to-analog) converters. The converters are 24-bit @ 44.1 or 48kHz with 114dB dynamic range.
Effects: The X32 Producer is equipped with 8 studio-quality stereo (or 16 mono) multi-effects processors, that are assignable to any input, group, or output mix bus. You can choose from a range of reverbs, delays, EQs, dynamics, and more.
iPad /Android Applications: Many of the functions of the X32 Producer can be remotely controlled by a dedicated iPad app. You can adjust the house mix from any seat, and fine-tune monitor mixes on stage. The X32-Mix app requires iOS 8.0. You'll need to connect the X32 Producer to your network router via Ethernet cable, and connect your iPad to the network. For Android devices, the Mixing Station XM32 app gives you control from Android tablets running operating system 4.0 and up.
Connections and Controls: The X32 Producer's inputs and outputs are located primarily on the rear panel, with the exception of the 1/4" stereo headphone jack (front panel), and the Data Export/Import USB port (Type A).
Inputs: The unit is equipped with 16 Midas-designed programmable mic preamps, each with balanced female XLR connectors. A single female XLR is provided for a talkback microphone, as well. In addition, there are six 1/4" TRS Line inputs. The last two 1/4" TRS Line inputs (5 and 6) share an RCA input.
Main/Aux: Eight XLR balanced outputs are provided, with the last two (7 and 8) are marked as the Main outputs. There are six 1/4" TRS Aux outputs, with the last two sharing an RCA output. In addition to the Aux outs, there are independent left and right 1/4" balanced monitor outputs.
Headphones: The mixer's front panel Headphone jack accepts a 1/4" TRS plug for connecting a pair of headphones. The headphone output has a dedicated rotary level control.
AES50: Two AES50 ports (A + B) are provided for connecting inputs for channels 17-32 (Inputs 1-16 are located on the mixer itself) via a separate I/O box, such as a Behringer S-16 Digital Snake (Stage Box). Shielded CAT-5e cable should be used for AES50 connections between the X32 and S16 units. Each of the AES50 ports can handle up to 48 input and output channels.
Ultranet: This RJ-45 port lets you output up to 16 channels of monitoring when a Behringer P-16 personal monitoring system.
Remote: This RJ-45 port allows you to connect the mixer to a PC for remote control via Ethernet cable.
USB 2.0: The built-in X-USB card lets you transmit up to 32 channels of audio to and from a computer via this Type B USB 2.0 port.
AC Power: The mixer has a 100-240V (50/60 Hz) switchable power supply with an On/Off toggle switch. A detachable 5' AC power cord with an IEC 3-prong connector is supplied with the mixer.
Dimensions: Width 19.25" Height 6.4" Depth 20.25"

Author’s Note: These are my top five(ish).
Mendocino/Sonoma Coastline – Quick fact: It seems counter intuitive to pack warm clothes when going to the beach but, I assure you, northern California’s coast doesn’t care about your intuition. Whatever the temperature is in the valley, it is guaranteed to be 20 degrees cooler on the coast. Several parks and campsites provide day and weekend getaways for the outdoor enthusiast or mariner. Cliff side paths offer lookouts over sheer drop-offs and sprawling views of the Pacific Ocean.
College tends to bring stress levels up to dizzying heights and the solution: take a drive. The numerous easy-winding roads and small towns that inhabit the coast are worth the gas money.
Farmstead/Ike’s Place – I am often asked, “What makes PUC so special?” I’ve heard this question so many times, I can pretty much tell when it’s coming. Without realizing it, I just awkwardly blurt out the word “food”, interrupting the individual midway through their question. For me, it’s hard to think of a time when food isn’t the first thing that comes to mind, but I digress. Given the chance, I normally recover and elaborate my original involuntary yap about why I have stayed at PUC.
Although the area is home to so many quality eateries, I’m lucky (you’re lucky) to have narrowed it down to two. Farmstead is housed in a revamped barn and features a farm-to-table menu with food foraged locally and cooked in a southern style method. (i.e. wood burn grilling and smoking) If you’re looking for something more casual, Ike’s Place has you covered. After perfecting the art of sandwich making in San Francisco, Ike’s spread its delicious footprint to the neighboring Sonoma Valley. Ike’s bread is freshly baked and packaged with their “Dirty Secret Sauce” which has me drooling as I write this at 6:22 a.m.
AT&T Park – The spring time has a polarizing effect on me. On one hand, spring means baseball season, and on the other, crippling allergies. Even if it feels like I’m breathing through a straw, baseball always tips the scale in favor of spring. AT&T Park happens to be the home of my beloved Giants but even if you’re a casual fan it’s a place you should consider visiting. Ranked as one of the better ballparks in the league, AT&T offers land and cityscape views of the San Francisco Bay and surrounding metropolis. Prepare to have your attention fought over as what happens in the water, at times, will rival what’s happening in the stadium. Also, garlic fries.
Fox Theater – I had not heard of this venue nearly my entire college lifetime, which was strange since I was road tripping to a show nearly once a week. After nearly four decades in disrepair, Fox Theater, which resides in downtown Oakland, was restored in 2009. Its interior is a medley of the Art Deco Period mixed with Middle Eastern grandeur. This combination of ill-fitted architecture presents a unique and charming home to several concerts throughout the year and remains a favorite venue of mine.
Each year may see new adaptation to my list. I’ve spent seven years in this area but I’m constantly discovering new places within reach. Yours will undoubtedly differ from mine but that’s what is great about this territory – there is something for everyone. | 2019-04-18T20:27:18 | https://pucadmissions.wordpress.com/tag/college-life/ |
It’s been a somewhat surreal year! Both for me and the planet, more broadly. Whether it was my getting involved with the IDRC or the global reawakening concerning exclusion/ inequality and the subsequent Occupation Movements. 2011 was a rager! Exciting, indeed. But for the sake of this post and it’s home on this blog I’ll concentrate on the former.
I was recently involved in a conversation with a colleague about my computer accessibility. The conversation didn’t start that way, focused on me I mean, but it ended on me. I don’t recall exactly how the conversation started, or more specifically how I was able to shift the focus on to me, but immediately following said discussion I found myself writing that colleague an email clarifying what I’d said. That email serves as the basis for this post.
In our conversation I classified my interest in accessibility, and my approach toward efforts to help with it, stem from “selfishness.” Those who have interacted with me or have seen me use a computer, I assume, would understand that statement. And who it was coming from.
When using the term “selfish” — I typically tend not to dilly-dally with the words I choose to speak with, as my voice can be difficult to understand, especially if you’re unfamiliar with my “vernacular”/ vocal style, and I do better getting right at the point — I was simply referring to the way I’ve come to approach learning about the accessibility field. Meaning I’ve started to look for better ways to access my computer. Being more “selfish” about matters, relating to this anyway, and not relying on my ability to “finesse” the technology I use, has given me quite the opportunity to learn about myself, obviously, but about what is possible. And more importantly that which isn’t. I’ve realized just how much more work and learning we and I need to do on computers to let keyboard users specifically, but people off all sorts, do what they need to get done on and offline.
Or in other words in searching for alternative methods of access — which essentially means ways I input my intentions into a computer, and I’ve also begun to experiment with a trackpad, too — I discovered the keyboard is my ideal method of access. I had to change a few OS specific key commands, for usability’s sake, but using the keyboard to control a computer cut way down on the time I used to fumble with the mouse.
So with said modifications from Apple’s implementation (speaking entirely as a one handed typer, shhhhhh don’t tell my Physiotherapist) of “hot keys” I’ve managed to nail down a pretty consistent and ridiculously usable keyboard regiment for myself. (And there’s still quite a bit more experimentation to do yet. I’ll be sure to share when I’m more “comfortable” with what I’ve learned.) But in doing what now seems to me to be such an obvious progression I finally took the time to find the “sweet spot” where my sloppy keyboard ability — which oddly enough resembles the manner in which I used to play the guitar, what may seem painfully sloppy to other people was ridiculously efficient for me — has, for years, led to my typing lots of inadvertent double characters. Now I don’t. And the only reason I went to the effort of finding that “sweet spot” was my newfound accessibility through the keyboard! I’ve come to realize how frustrating and counter productive my mouse actually is for me to use.
Point being it wasn’t until I went looking for a solution to accommodate myself, and not relying on my ability to adapt, when I really started to grasp this accessibility thing. Strange I found an answer to inclusivity by being more selfish in my approach. Huh.

With the release of DAREDEVIL Volume 5, Daredevil's secret identity mysteriously became a true secret again, as only Foggy Nelson seemed to know. How did this happen? It was recently revealed in DAREDEVIL #20. It appears only Foggy Nelson and Killgrave (and his children) know Matt Murdock is Daredevil.
Prior to Volume 5, Matt Murdock had publicly admitted he was Daredevil. Before this, Matt denied he was Daredevil even after a newspaper revealed his identity.
Here's a list of people who know (or knew) Matt is Daredevil prior to the relaunch with Volume 5.
This list is compiled with help from William Koenig, Kurt Anthony Krug, John Jakala, Lance Visser, Daniel Hanks, Dwight Williams, Jack Rockley, Jr., and the many others who discussed Matt's identity problems in the R.A.C.M.U. newsgroup. Also thanks to Robert Orme, Greg Preece & Tobias Palmer for recent additions and corrections.
In the Fall From Grace storyline, DD had convinced everyone he WASN'T Matt Murdock. After one paper ran a speculative story, various reporters saw MM's apartment and concluded he was an ordinary blind man. Despite that, MM faked his own death.
How many times has DD's identity been blown? Let's try to count.
9 Dr. Van Eyck, famous eye surgeon, figured out Matt's secret. Van Eyck had examined Matt Murdock and later saw DD in action. Van Eyck died disabling an atomic pile.
24 Spider-Man sends MM a letter stating that he (Spidey) knows DD's identity but won't tell anybody. Foggy and Karen read the letter 'cuz Matt has disappeared and they're worried. Leads to the creation of the Mike Murdock identity (issues 25-41). DD and Spidey tell each other their secret identities in the Sin-Eater storyline in Spectacular Spider-Man later on.
27 Matt "tells" the Masked Marauder that Mike Murdock really is Daredevil (part of a gambit to defeat the villain, naturally). The Masked Marauder appears to die in this story but comes back a few years later in Iron Man and still later in Spectacular Spider-Man (in a story that features the very first time Frank Miller drew DD). In neither appearance, does he ever make any reference of this "knowledge." If he hadn't been killed, you'd think he would have sought revenge on Nelson & Murdock.
51 Starr Saxon, a villain, discovers Matt is DD.
52 The Black Panther discovers Matt is DD.
54 MM fakes his own death to avoid blackmail by Starr Saxon. Spidey concludes he was silly to have written that letter back in issue 24.
57 DD tells Karen Page he is DD.
84 The Black Widow discovers Matt is DD.
85 Ivan, Natasha's sidekick knows Matt is DD, presumably having been told between issues.
85? Matt and 'Tasha were on a flight which was skyjacked by the Gladiator. During the course of the ensuing melee, a passenger on the plane, Nathanial Taggart, discovers that Matt is DD. His help allows DD to save the people on-board and he pledges to keep Matt's secret.
92 His identity is blown by a San Francisco TV station. TV reports go out saying that Matt is Daredevil. Matt solves the problem by having the Black Panther dress up as Daredevil and fight a battle while Matt looks on for the TV cameras. Matt explains that the original Daredevil was Mike Murdock and the new Daredevil is someone else. This issue ties up most of the unresolved identity stories from the issues before it.
149/50? Matt tells Heather Glenn his secret.
154/55? The Purple Man discovers Matt is DD.
158 The Death Stalker knows. He's toast by the end of the issue, though.
164 Ben Urich figured things out.
168 Elektra knows Matt is DD.
195 A drunken Heather Glenn spilled the beans on Matt's ID to Tarkington Brown. Brown had died of cancer by issue #200.
209 Johnny Squarejohn, a man who grew up with Matt, makes the connection, but dies at the end of the issue when one of Mrs. Sterling's robots explodes. Mrs. Sterling of course was Death-Stalker's mother. So, she may have known Matt was DD, or she just programmed the robots using data Death-Stalker collected about where DD usually was etc. and what he looked like.
210 Micah Synn uses his sense of smell to determine that a scarf worn by Matt Murdock has the same scent as a piece of Daredevil's costume.
223 The Beyonder tries to understand Matt's motivation to be DD.
227 Kingpin finds out through Karen Page.
254 Typhoid Mary is told by the Kingpin.
298 S.H.I.E.L.D. lets Matt know they know he's DD.
319-325 Matt's identity is revealed in a tabloid, but he manages to convince reporters he's not DD. However, several people in the "Fall From Grace" arc know for sure... Eddie Passim probes DD's mind and realizes DD is blind. Erynys, Snakeroot, and John Garrett all know, by way of Elektra's 'essence'.
348 Foggy Nelson finds Matt in his costume.
352 Mastermind tricks Matt in order to save Foggy.
371 X-Man Cecelia Reyes sees Matt without his mask on.
Vol. 2 #1-8 We learn that Gwyneth, the girl who gives Matt the child, knows he is DD. She's killed in later issues though. We also learn that Mysterio knows, as does Mr. Gabriel and the rest of Mysterio's henchman. But all the henchman are killed by Mysterio too, and Mysterio takes his own life while fighting DD.
Vol. 2 #15 Echo (Maya) finally realizes Matt and Daredevil are the same person when she notices DD's blood on his cheek forms a question mark, like Matt had in earlier issues.
Vol. 2 #30 Richard Fisk and Kingpin's men tell Silke that they've known that Matt and DD are one and the same for a long time. All are killed in later issues.
Vol. 2 #32 FBI finds out, but are ordered to keep it under wraps. Yet, the info is leaked by one of the agents and the Daily Globe prints that Matt Murdock is Daredevil. Matt holds a press conference in later issues denying he is Daredevil, but many people still believe the rumours. Subsequently, Vanessa Fisk lets Matt know who sold out his identity.
Vol. 2 #38 Luke Cage and Iron Fist confirm their suspicions while trying to convince Matt to defend the White Tiger in a trial.
Vol. 2 #41 Milla Donovan knows that Matt and DD's voice are from the same person... and her friend Lori clues in as well.
Vol. 2 #50 Patrons at Josie's Bar get an earful from an unmasked Daredevil as he proclaims he's now the 'Kingpin' of Hell's Kitchen. Wilson Fisk lays unconscious on the floor, after DD drove him through the window after their battle earlier.
Ben Reilly, Peter Parker's clone.
Kaine must also know as well, since he's a Parker clone.
Nyla, from Matt's 'amnesia' days probably does know but she knew Matt as 'Jack Murdock'.
Wolverine probably knows by his sense of smell, but it's never been shown.
Dr. Strange also knows, having probed Matt's mind in one of the Annuals.
Stick and the rest of The Chaste know, as does The Hand.
Mr. Fear (III) (Larry Cranston) discovered Matt's identity while working as a law partner of Murdock's in S.F..
Underground Dwellers from the Humanity's Fathom storyline all know.
Falcon, Tork and Black Cat, during the Gang War story in Amazing Spider-Man, all saw Matt without his mask on.
Captain Marvel (I) knew as well.
Crossbones unmasked DD during the Streets of Poison storyline in Captain America.
Moondragon knows from issue 105.
Mandrill and Nekra both know from issue 110.
Mephisto most certainly knows from DD's adventure into Hell.
Timmy, Leap-Frog's son sees DD without his mask on, from the 'Wake Up' storyline by Bendis/Mack.
Batman knows from the crossover one-shot.
Doctors from the Inferno storyline have seen Matt without his mask on, after they help him heal from his beating at the hands of Bullet, Bushwacker, etc.
Mary Jane Parker has probably made the connection, but it's never been shown.
Voodoo Priest Mambo from 243-244 knew as well. Her knowledge is confirmed when she has the Nameless One leave Matt's glove, dripping with blood, hanging in Matt and Karen's apartment. It's unclear if the Nameless One knew, or was just following orders.
Jessica Jones reveals to the reader that she knows Matt is DD (in _Alias_), and is upset that Matt never told her while she was his bodyguard.
Yakuza try their best to take over Hell's Kitchen, convinced that Matt Murdock is DD.
Elektra, Kingpin, Ben Urich and Father Everett all know, while Foggy Nelson, Bullseye, Jose Quesada and the kids in the playground would have to be really naive not to make the connection.
The Daredevil TV show also has shown that Foggy, Claire and Karen from the current season all know, as does Stick and Elektra.
If there is anyone else, please let me know! | 2019-04-25T08:24:29 | http://manwithoutfear.com/daredevil-secret-identity.shtml |

106. Deputy Maureen O’Sullivan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of foreign nationals who have been naturalised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service and the number of naturalised persons registered on the electoral register since their naturalisation.
Minister for Justice and Equality (Deputy Frances Fitzgerald): I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the number of persons that have been naturalised from 2005 to date is 113,000 approximately.
Once granted citizenship new citizens acquire the same rights as all other citizens. A leaflet informing new citizens of their right to register and vote in all elections in the State, and how they can register, is included in the information packs issued to all candidates at citizenship ceremonies. However, my Department would not have any information on the number of naturalised persons who registered on the electoral register. | 2019-04-19T11:05:19 | http://www.nascireland.org/campaign-for-change/naturalisation-citizenship/pq-citizenship-status-2/ |

Reviewing code. The process of code reviewing is utilized by most major tech companies; however, it is extremely time consuming. We designed CFar, an automated code reviewing system at Microsoft, to enhance the collaboration among developers during code reviews.
Navigating code. Developers spend an inordinate amount of time navigating code in an effort to understand and modify it. We designed the Patchworks code editor to make revisiting relevant code significantly more efficient.
Refactoring code. Although most code editors provide ample support for restructuring code, visual language environments do not. We designed Yestercode and CodeDeviant to aid developers in refactoring and testing their code.
Information Foraging Theory. We applied a theory of how people seek information to the domain of software development. To do so, we conducted a series of empirical studies of developers debugging Java code using desktop and mobile development environments. | 2019-04-19T16:55:33 | http://web.eecs.utk.edu/~azh/ |

Ariana Grande Helped Pete Davidson When He "Sliced" His Finger & Is There Anything She Can't Do?
If you "sliced" your finger on a set, would you: A. stay calm and have your fiancée patch things up, or B. freak the heck out? Personally, I'd distinctly fall into the latter option — I've had to convince myself not to go to urgent care over a simple cut from slicing vegetables improperly. But for Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande, getting "sliced" is just another day on the job. Ariana Grande helped Pete Davidson when he "sliced" his finger on a music video set, because even in injury, the two of them are couple goals.
Grande's photo, which she posted on her Instagram Story on Thursday, shows her and Davidson standing at a counter from what looks like a set. "My baby sliced his finger in Colson's video so I fixed it," Grande wrote atop the picture. Her back is to the camera, but Davidson is seen looking at the camera with a pouty face about the injury.
Based on the rest of Grande's caption, it looks like the injury happened on the set of the "Loco" music video by rapper Machine Gun Kelly, whose given name is Colson Baker, the Daily Mail noted. Grande also wrote in the post, "congrats @machinegunkelly we all love u."
Thankfully, it looks like Davidson's injury wasn't too severe. In the next post on her Story, Grande shared a clip of Davidson smoking a cigarette in the video, and his fingers look perfectly fine in the shot. It seems like the so-called slicing wasn't severe enough to require medical attention.
Still, it's impressive how collected Grande was in the photo and in her caption about the incident. Most people, myself included, would probably have panicked at the sight of blood. But Grande kept calm and did what needed to be done.
Davidson and Grande haven't been together for too long, at least officially, but they really do seem to be each other's perfect match. Between all of their matching tattoos, their cloud-pillow-filled new apartment, and their mutual love of Harry Potter, the two of them have a lot more in common than you might think.
Grande's Instagram post shows that she and Davidson will be there for each other in both good times and less-good times. Staying calm in the face of injury is no easy feat, and it's great that Grande has that skill. Whatever ups and downs the two of them face in the future, it looks like they'll be able to handle it together — but hopefully, neither will be sliced again anytime soon. | 2019-04-22T10:47:17 | https://www.bustle.com/p/ariana-grande-helped-pete-davidson-when-he-sliced-his-finger-is-there-anything-she-cant-do-9991217 |

In October 2011, I was a candidate for a seat on the Board of Directors of the Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA). See my election statement here. I'd like to thank all the .ca domain name holders who supported my candidacy. Although I placed 4th (one vote off tying for 3rd), I feel it was a win for a candidate coming from a community networking background. CIRA has indicated that it has the issue of digital literacy firmly in its sites. I think the community has indicated that it is ready to be at the table.
CIRA is a member-driven organization that manages Canada’s .CA domain name registry, develops and implements policies that support Canada’s Internet community, and represents the .CA registry internationally. It is an key public resource that belongs to all of us. | 2019-04-21T14:16:19 | http://maritamoll.ca/content/cira-election-results |

The yesterday night episode of the TV series “Saath Nibhana Saathiya” begins with Gaura is informing everybody about Vidya’s pregnancy. With the news the entire Suryavanshi family danced with joy and the merry. And due to the Holi festival started they all play Holi with each other.
Now Durga sees Vidya is playing Holi happily with everyone and tells Shravan he should tell her everything or else he will lose her. As Vidya is the nice and an honest girl. She can bear everything but she can’t bear betray. Shravan looked on.
Vidya runs throwing Holi colours all around. A lady gangster comes with her gang of women and pushes Vidya on the floor. The lady gang says about this that it is Vidya was throwing colours on a widow, so she pushed her. The entire family is shocked to see so. Now Gopi and Meera run towards Vidya to holds her as despite Vidya is pregnant the lady gang through her.
Meera asks about the widow she was talking about. A lady wearing black sari is brought in front. Gaura says she is Dharam’s daughter, Naiya. The entire family is shocked to see her. She is daughter of the Suryavanshi family but nobody is aware of her. Meera did not care about anything and she insults the lady gang for pushing her pregnant sister Vidya.
Now Gaura scolds Meera and apologizes old lady. She asks Shravan to get his wife up. He did the same. Kokila is upset to see that the lady gang is misbehaving with Ahem.
And now the widow opens veil from her face to reveal her face and she is Naiya. Everyone look at her and shocked to see her that she had been arrived in the Suryvanshi house. Dharam goes emotional on seeing her.
Precap: Old lady tells to Vidya that Naiya has been arrived here to take care of her child. And Naiya will be take care of the Vidya with the fullest. | 2019-04-20T03:19:23 | https://www.dekhnews.com/suryavanshi-family-is-happy-with-vidyas-pregnancy-saath-nibhana-saathiya-25th-march-2016-episode-written-updates/ |
WASHINGTON – As Congress raced to leave Washington for its Easter recess, a Republican senator blocked a stopgap bill to extend jobless benefits, saying its $9 billion cost should not be added to the national debt.
As a result, some people who have been out of work for more than six months will at least temporarily lose benefits. Newly jobless people won’t be eligible to sign up for generous health insurance subsidies.
At the center of the battle is Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., who’s insisting that the measure be “paid for” so as not to add to the nation’s $12.7 trillion debt.
“What we are doing is stealing future opportunity from our children,” Coburn said Thursday.
Republicans offered legislation to finance the monthlong extension of jobless benefits by rescinding unspent money from last year’s economic stimulus bill. The effort was killed on a party-line vote.
Democrats repeatedly sought speedy Senate approval of a House-passed measure that would extend jobless benefits through May 5, but Coburn objected. Republicans said Senate negotiations produced a compromise that didn’t pass muster in the House.
Jim Manley, a spokesman for Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said the Senate would attempt to retroactively bestow the jobless benefits when it returns from its spring recess April 12.
The practical effect of the lapse in benefits would be limited if they are awarded retroactively. But labor advocates say it produces bureacratic nightmares for state labor departments and that trying to restore the lapsed benefits is easier said than done.
Reid had the option of keeping the Senate in session to force a vote to try to break through the GOP blocking tactics but instead will revisit the issue in 2 1/2 weeks.
The clash comes less than a month after Republicans abandoned a similar battle that led to an interruption in unemployment benefits eligibility for some people and a two-day furlough for about 2,000 Transportation Department employees.
A stopgap law enacted early this month extends though April 5 unemployment insurance for people who have been out of a job for more than six months, provides health insurance subsidies for the jobless and protects doctors from a sharp cut in Medicare payments.
But another short-term extension of the jobless benefits is needed while House and Senate Democrats work through negotiations on a long-term measure that would provide them through the end of the year. Those talks have slowed, prompting Democrats to move to extend benefits for an additional month.
Last month, Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky., blocked a similar extension of jobless benefits, but Republicans ended up on the losing end of a public relations battle and Bunning backed away.
The House passed the stopgap bill last week by a voice vote.
Democratic leaders say that jobless benefits are an emergency and don’t need to conform to the new pay-as-you-go budget law, which requires new benefit programs to be offset with spending cuts or tax increases so they don’t increase the deficit. | 2019-04-24T12:39:45 | http://nonprofitpeople.monster.com/news/articles/698-senate-republican-holds-up-jobless-benefits |
finally tried AJ delights and damn they make some good muffins.
Looking for Halal pastry options? Definitely must buy from AJ Delights! Love each and every flavour of moist, fresh off the oven muffins that will definitely perk u up no matter where you are!
Christmas festive feasting is almost inevitable and I have come to learn to appreciate it better. For yesterday’s Christmas gathering this box of muffins from my Chilay (Chinese - Malay) colleague was my favourite. These sweet (partially because both flavours I had contained strussels); perfectly dense and moist muffins came in assorted flavours. They were excellent that I easily finished one and wanted another; even though a portion of one was filling enough.
Probably the muffins were extra special as a sweet gesture of my good colleague- friend; AJ muffins will now be something I’d have fond memory of.
P.S: pardon the poor photo but I was too shy to make everyone wait for me to photograph the muffins well. | 2019-04-20T08:25:52 | https://www.burpple.com/aj-delights?bp_ref=%2Flist%2F508304%2Finstagram |
Microsoft will not begin using Windows 10's multiple update tracks, or "branches," until later this year, analysts said, and in the interim will continue to push all updates to everyone at the same time.
Microsoft will not begin using Windows 10's multiple update tracks, called "branches" by the Redmond, Wash. firm, until later this year, analysts said, and in the interim will continue to push all updates to everyone at the same time.
"We're not going to see anything concrete until we see Windows 10 Mobile," predicted Wes Miller of Directions on Microsoft, in an interview last week. "We only have one part of the family at this point."
Miller's bet is that Microsoft will wait until Windows 10 Mobile officially reaches production quality -- a milestone expected this fall -- before priming the branch pump. With Windows 10 Mobile out, the clan of operating systems will be in place.
Those branches will separate Windows 10's users into different update tracks, getting fixes as well as new features and functionality to customers on different schedules.
Branches are a radical departure from Windows' historic servicing and maintenance model, which offered updates and upgrades to everyone simultaneously, then let customers decide whether they moved forward or stayed in place. As a crucial component of the "Windows as a service" theme Microsoft has promoted, branches will deliver the constant cadence of changes that will let the company evolve the OS over time rather than simply replace it with the next in line. In most cases, users will be required to accept the updates on their given branch; not doing so will mean a stoppage of security patches.
For example, the Current Branch (CB) -- the only available to consumers running Windows 10 Home -- will deliver updates before the Current Branch for Business (CBB), the track accessible from Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise. The third mainstream branch, dubbed Long-term Servicing Branch (LTSB), can be adopted only by devices running Windows 10 Enterprise that are also covered by Software Assurance plans.
In Microsoft's scheme, updates distributed to the CB reach systems first, with the same updates delivered to CBB devices at least a month later (in some cases as much as a year later). LTSB machines can forego all but security updates indefinitely.
Meanwhile, within each branch there will exist at least two "rings," or sub-divisions, that allow users to jump to the front of the queue, or delay deliveries for days or even weeks.
But Microsoft has yet to debut either branches or rings. Rather, in the two-plus weeks since the operating system's July 29 launch, it has distributed a series of cumulative updates -- their contents described in only the most general terms -- to all users at the same time.
That will probably be the practice for the next several months. "Microsoft has enough to be worried about, especially getting this [initial] rollout of Windows 10 to go smoothly," said Steve Kleynhans of Gartner.
The company's focus on getting Windows 10 into customers' hands will require its complete attention until at least September, probably longer, Kleynhans argued. "We're definitely looking at months [to complete the Windows 10 rollout]. Microsoft is being pretty cautious at looking at machines" to authorize upgrades only to those capable of running the new OS, he added.
In fact, there's little rush for Microsoft to enable branches and rings, in large part because while some small businesses or organizations running Windows 10 Pro may leap at the free upgrade -- a deal valid until late July 2016 -- the majority of those migrating to Windows 10 in 2015 will be consumers, who will be almost entirely on the get-it-first, can't-refuse-or-delay-it Current Branch.
In any case, Microsoft wasn't expected to ship the first significant refresh until about four months after release, or by late November or early December.
Still, the new servicing model and its associated branches are critical to Windows 10's success, or at least to the strategy Microsoft has adopted. Seeing it in action, and judging whether it's workable, will be a big moment for the new OS as well as for Microsoft's reputation. | 2019-04-23T16:24:55 | https://www.computerworld.com.au/article/582074/microsoft-waives-windows-10-branches-now/ |
Medical Microbiologists investigate mechanisms of disease production by microorganisms.
Diagnostic Microbiologists, through a variety of techniques, search for and identify the micro organisms which cause disease. Determination of antibiotic susceptibility of microbes is another important duty.
Public Health Microbiologists help to control the spread of communicable disease.
Virologists conduct research on the smallest of infectious agents. They study how viruses cause disease in animals and plants, induce tumor formation, and transfer genes between cells. These studies provide essential information for developing vaccines and advances in biotechnology.
Mycologists study fungi of interest to medical, agricultural and food industries.
Immunologists study how beneficial and harmful host reactions occur when foreign substances enter the body, and they generate and improve vaccines. They also develop highly sensitive and specific identification techniques, one of which determines compatibility of organs for transplantation.
Microbial Geneticists isolate, transfer, and determine functions of genes in microorganisms. Through improvement of gene-transfer techniques, geneticists provide great advancements in biotechnology.

Tasker is basically categorized as an automation app. you can perform a list of actions with the help of a tasker application. The actions done by the tasker is termed as tasks. The tasks performed by the tasker app can be varied in a different context.
What is Tasker? How Does Tasker App Works?
Tasker apk for Android is a brilliant platform it not only performs single tasks but it is also capable to do multiple tasks at the same time. For example, if you have already made the app to do the X and Y task when it is on the action you can also command the app to do A and B tasks also. Tasker is very similar to the IFFT applets. This software works on many cross platforms. However, Tasker can work more efficiently on android platforms and surprisingly completing the most complex task also.
Even though tasker is capable to complete the toughest of tasks it has a simple and understandable interface. You can choose a task on tasker app by just sliding it on, it is very simple like turning on Bluetooth. Using tasker may seem little tougher when using the third party plugins as you may have to enter commands and codes to operate the tasker application. The contexts available on the tasker platform is wide whether automatic tasker profiles, using plugins and entering commands, or just playing the tasks. There are lots of things which a tasker app can do let’s see some of the works done by the Tasker.
How does tasker app work?
After installing the Tasker app on your android device when you open the application there are four tabs seen in the homepage. These four tabs can be used in different contexts. The first tab contains trigger tasks which can be done by just selecting the basic task you want the app to perform. The second tab consists of actions which are found in an organized way from which you can choose your preferred task. The third tab is more advanced as it has all the visuals and popup through which you can execute your chosen task. The fourth tab contains other visual elements which will assist you to execute a task. You can create your own variable values to complete a task.
If you want to create a task on tasker first name the task. Now assign values and actions so that the task can be performed. Now select the suitable action and you can do all the tasks easily. Once you choose the order you can execute the built tasks whenever you want. Tasker app has achieved so much even before a certain technology was introduced.
For example, before they do not disturb action was introduced a person with tasker app could easily put their phone on that mode. So explore and create new tasks every day with tasker app. Keep visiting Taskerapkdownload.com for more such posts! | 2019-04-21T06:17:37 | https://taskerapkdownload.com/tasker-faqs/ |
Rwanda’s ANNUAL ECONOMIC REPORT FISCAL YEAR 2017/2018 issued in January 2019 indicates that the public debt has risen to RWF3.9 trillion (US$4.4 billion) or 50% of GDP. There is more bad news. Although cheap concessional loans provided by multilateral lenders such as the World Bank still constitute the bulk of public debt, commercial loans have increased sharply. The commercial loans were acquired for building the Kigali Convention Centre (KCC), as well as loans and leases contracted by RwandAir. As these loans mature, principal and interest payments become an issue. Already, serving debts has become a headache. The government admits that some of the domestic debts ”have been rolled over due to the cash flow needs.” Welcome to Kagame’s Banana Republic. | 2019-04-23T22:40:21 | https://medium.com/@david.himbara_27884/kagames-rwanda-drowning-in-debt-kigali-convention-center-and-rwandair-have-pushed-debt-to-50-of-4b6cefef6a06 |

Where is this 1924 date?
I took this photo today (October 9 2014, so presumably 90 years after the building it is on was built). What and where is the building?
I've done a search for 1924 and this 1924 does not seem to have been used before as a W&W.
88 views so far but no responses. It's either harder than I thought or just so easy nobody wants to give even a cryptic clue!
Non-cryptic clue: It's in LS1.
Is it the garret bedrooms of the Comfort Hotel Bishopgate Street ??
The curtains and the angle seem rather like what you see from trains leaving Leeds for the east ??
Yes it is what I know of as the Discovery Inn (not that I've ever been in the inn ). I was a bit surprised to spot the date as I was coming out of the Neville Street 'tunnel' after having been to the Dark Arches area and I just happened to look up (almost breaking my neck!) and spotted the 1924 date. This photo (also taken on October 9 2014) shows the building with the date stone high up on the left.
PS. Currently at least there is no access across the foot/road bridge over the river at the Dark Arches. There is a diversion outside for people needing to go that way.
Thanks Leodian, and sorry I got the name wrong - I had a feeling that "Comfort" wasn't right but knew it was a somewhat unusual name for a hotel. Now I may be very wrong here, but wasn't it originally the bedrooms of the Griffin when that was in its prime ?? - although it must have been a later extension in 1924 as the Griffin is older than that.
Well done BLAKEY i would never have got that one having said that i have never got any yet.
It was the somewhat dubious looking net curtains, when seen from the trains, that made it stick in my mind and have done for many years.
It did use to be called the Comfort Inn but I'm unsure when its name changed to the Discovery Inn. I'm unsure of the Griffin connection but my feeling is that I have read somewhere that it was (still is?) part of the Griffin.
Recognising a place by its curtains amused me . It's clearly time they were changed! | 2019-04-20T23:16:18 | http://secretleeds.com/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=5462&p=0 |
Winter’s official beginning might not be until Dec. 21, but that doesn’t mean the frigid temperatures and harsh conditions will wait until then to show up.
With colder weather comes an increased risk for getting sick – after all, winter is smack dab in the middle of flu season – so you’ll want to prepare before you catch a cold.
Staying healthy is key to avoiding illness, so make it a point to prioritize overall wellness this season.
Adequate sleep is essential for your immunity. By giving your body a chance to rest the full recommended 7-9 hours each night, you’re allowing it to rejuvenate and prepare for the next day.
If you don’t already, start following a strict sleeping scheduling to get into a healthy flow.
According to Energetic Nutrition’s lifestyle blog, drinking enough cold water can support your organs and flush out toxins in your system.
Moreover, hot fluids like tea can eliminate mucus, provide a soothing sensation to the throat, penetrate the lungs and more – all debilitating symptoms that come with a cold or flu.
If you don’t already, start drinking at least eight glasses of water per day, and include hot fluids in your day as well.
Hot fluids can eliminate mucus and provide a soothing sensation to the throat.
A wholesome, balanced diet that’s loaded with essential vitamins and minerals strengthens the immune system and fights the viruses that could keep you coughing all winter long.
Eating too many empty-calorie foods with minimal nutritional content isn’t only bad for your immunity – it can also lead to weight gain, acne flare-ups, stress and more.
Prioritize a balanced diet that includes a variety of lean meats, fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and dairy products.
According to Simply Psychology, the adrenaline that releases during a response to stress can impact heart rate, which increases strains on the circulatory system, raises blood pressure and weakens the immune system.
This winter, find ways to cope with stress and reduce stress levels all around. Spend more time with family and friends, dedicate a day or two during the week to one of your favorite hobbies, or find something else that brings you joy and serenity.
While a balanced diet and oral supplementation can keep you well, we at the Longevity Centres of America believe that you require more than that for an optimal immune system.
With our intravenous therapy options, you can absorb the critical vitamins and minerals you need to thrive in the fastest, most efficient way possible. Alpha Lipoid Acid or Ascorbic Acid, for example, are two treatments that can provide relief from minor to severe illness, ultimately boosting your immunity.
For more information on the IV infusion therapies offered at the Longevity Centres, don’t hesitate to connect with us today. We look forward to helping you brave the winter, flu-free! | 2019-04-21T22:07:42 | https://longevitycentres.com/how-to-boost-your-immunity-this-winter/ |

Health Academy Students' Efforts in Feral Cat Issue.
Congrats to our Health Academy Seniors Ashley Aragon, Marinelle Dulluog, Kimberly Serna, and Angela Acoba for extending their Junior Project topic beyond the classroom.
They have been working towards decreasing the feral cat population in the community. This is an ongoing problem not only in Kalihi, but in many other areas of the island.
They have been featured on Hawaii News Now with Representative John Mizuno to raise awareness regarding this issue. Currently, a draft is being made to provide funds for cat traps and other needed supplies.

Is epigenetics the ‘secret superpower’ of invasive species?
Due to the small numbers that are introduced, invasive species experience a genetic bottleneck that results in low levels of genetic diversity. This reduction in genetic diversity is expected to constrain a species’s ability to adapt to an alien environment — yet, somehow, they overcome it.
Previous studies have revealed that DNA methylation patterns undergo rapid changes in response to local environmental changes during an individual’s lifetime. For this reason, it has been proposed that these so-called “epimutations” may be one of several mechanisms whereby organisms increase their ability to adapt to novel environments or to environmental fluctuations, in the absence of genetic variations. Could this epigenetic flexibility be the “secret superpower” that transforms some species into invasives?
A 2013 study of house sparrows that had been introduced into Kenya around fifty years ago suggested that increased phenotypic variation might result from increased epigenetic diversity, and this might compensate for the introduced sparrows’ lack of genetic diversity.
Although there is no evidence that epigenetic variations may be compensating for the lack of genetic diversity in Australia’s house sparrows, it is possible that such changes may be more numerous or more easily identified shortly after introduction, when the birds are in the earliest stages of adaptation.

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has put in place a policy on handling allegations of improprieties received from external sources. Such improprieties may include allegations of non-compliance with standards of good practices that could have an impact on the evaluation and supervision of medicines.
The goal is to create an environment where individuals outside the Agency feel confident to raise their concerns on improprieties in their area of work, and submit information or evidence about improprieties they may have observed.
The policy helps EMA assess these reports and coordinate any further investigation, while protecting the confidentiality of the reporting person.
Anyone external to EMA who becomes aware of an irregularity that might impact on EMA's activities may report these allegations to EMA, by writing to [email protected], using the provided template.
They can also send a letter to the Agency. For information on the Agency's postal address, see Contacts at EMA.
EMA sends an acknowledgement of receipt, by letter or email, within 15 working days after receiving the report.
EMA keeps the identity of the reporting person confidential, whether the information provided leads to further investigation or not.
If the allegations concern a centrally authorised medicine, EMAl coordinates an investigation. If there are any concerns that the improprieties may affect the balance of benefits and risks of the medicine, EMA's scientific committees may consider regulatory action.
If the allegations concern a nationally authorised medicine, EMA may, on a case-by-case basis, refer the matter to the national competent authority in the European Union Member State where the concerned medicine is authorised.
If there is a suspicion that fraud is involved, the Agency refers the case to the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) in accordance the existing arrangements between OLAF and EMA. For more information, see Anti-fraud strategy.
EMA inform the reporting person, if not anonymous, of the outcome of the assessment or if it transfers the report to another competent authority.
The Agency only includes personal data when it transfers a report to another party if the reporter agrees to this. | 2019-04-20T03:18:06 | https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/about-us/how-we-work/handling-reports-alleged-improprieties-external-sources |

To debug D programs you need to use a debugger that understands the format of the debug symbols information that your chosen compiler produces. The quality of the debug symbols information might vary depending on which compiler you use and its underlying debug format. For example, some compiler configurations may present the names of variables and/or functions in it's C mangled form, instead of the natural D name.

Flensted Mobiles are a traditional handicraft in Denmark. The first modern designer mobile was made there in 1954. Today Flensted Mobiles is based on the Danish island of Funen, the birthplace of Hans Christian Anderson, where it creates its very own design fairy tales from the old village school in Brenderup. Colorful and festive balloon mobiles inspired by Montgolfieres of the 18th century and modern hot air balloons of today. Here you have a mobile with 3 balloons. A plate showing famous balloons, beginning with the first Montgolfiere from 1783 and ending with Double Eagle II from 1978 is enclosed. | 2019-04-23T20:27:00 | http://www.1st-in-home-decor.com/flensted-mobiles-nursery-mobiles-5-balloon-mobile/ |

T-Mobile on Wednesday announced a new set of low-cost business plans and some deal sweeteners for consumers at its “Uncarrier 9.0” event.
The centerpiece of the event was a new set of wireless plans, primarily for small and medium businesses. They’re inexpensive and simple, requiring no negotiation, which T-Mobile CEO John Legere said was a major drawback of existing business plans.
“70 percent of business customers say [the buying process] isn’t transparent enough … the best price is the only price, for everyone,” he said.
Here’s how it goes: Businesses must order at least 10 lines to get the special pricing. The first 19 lines cost $16 each with unlimited talk, text, and 1GB of data per line. Go above 19 lines, and you pay $15 each; above 1,000 lines, they become $10 each. Tablets and hotspots are $10/month each.
Additional data can be added per-line or pooled. Per-line data costs $10 per 2GB or $30 for unlimited. T-Mobile charges by the gigabyte for pooled data for businesses: $4.75 each for the first 500 GB, $4.50 after 500 GB, and then $4.25 after 1 TB. There are no overages, and businesses are just charged by the gigabyte of use.
Business customers will also get a GoDaddy domain, a mobile-optimized website, and an email mailbox provided by Microsoft, on their own domain.
Legere pointed out that his company is reaping only $4 billion of the $83 billion in business wireless sales right now, so any business customers it gains will be straight out of the pockets of AT&T and Verizon Wireless.
Legere also threw in some sweeteners for consumers, who are almost all of T-Mobile’s current base. The company will pay up to $650 per line in switching costs from another carrier, which now includes paying off leases and phone payment plans such as AT&T Next and Verizon Edge, he said.
Families of new business customers will be able to sign up for personal lines with the first line discounted from $50 to $30/month plus data, he said.
Individual T-Mobile customers, meanwhile, will see any promotional plan they’re on made permanent, with a guarantee that rates will only go down, not up. The exception is unlimited-data subscribers, who will only get the guarantee for two years.
“Unlimited is a world in and of itself; I can’t pretend to tell you the ten-year view on Unlimited,” Legere said.
Coverage is one of the major complaints that potential business customers have about T-Mobile. One small businessperson at the event complained that his T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 had problems with in-building reception.
Legere acknowledged that T-Mobile is still expanding its coverage. “We have some rural edge, some in-building penetration that is still stuff we’re working on,” he said.
The carrier’s main problem is that it’s primarily on higher-band spectrum than AT&T or Verizon, and while that’s ideal for carrying fast data, it’s not very good at covering distances or penetrating building walls.
Legere said T-Mobile will lean hard into next year’s 600Mhz “incentive auction,” but that spectrum will probably be built out between 2017 and 2020. Legere has been lobbying the FCC to make sure the auction rules set aside some spectrum for companies other than AT&T and Verizon Wireless.
The company will also start installing in-building systems based on 5Ghz “LTE-U” technology next year, it has said.
For now, coverage hopes rest on T-Mobile’s 700Mhz spectrum, which covers 190 million people. That spectrum is much more like the airwaves AT&T and Verizon use to penetrate buildings. While the carrier has been rolling that out across the country, it’s been slowed in some areas—like New York—because it requires existing TV stations on Channel 51 to get out of the way. | 2019-04-21T08:42:03 | https://www.baydailynews.com/t-mobile-announces-cheap-business-plans/ |

And Lo, it came to pass that, in the time of the Emperor Commodus, when Phallus Maximus Ludicrus was Governor of Laetitia Minor, an awesome heavenly host did visitate and reveal themselves upon the humble Gopsiites, yea even as they were guarding their flocks from the Welshmen. And this host did sing, such that their voices descended from heaven even unto the small town of Ispog, that is known also as Ye Pouhlls of Blakk, renowned from afar for its silliness and its prostitutes. And Lo, the Gopsiites were sore and afraid, (although that was mainly because of the previous night). And the heavenly host did say unto them, "Fear not, for I bring you tidings of exceeding great tidingness. Unto you a Party shall be born, and you shall name it the Black Poles Christmas Party, and you shall feast upon the holy Chok-ko-latt of Kadbory and the sacred Spon-je-Kay-ke; and you shall drink the Lem-on-ayd and the Di-yat-Liltt."
And so a great cheer went up among the Gopsiites, and they did all that the Angel had told them to do. And Lo, there was much gnashing of teeth and spewing of chocolate-cake in the land of the gopsiites, for they ate far too much. And they saw that it was Good, and said, "let's do it again next year". And so it came to pass that each December, Christmas is celebrated, and the Gopsiites have once more a massive blow-out at the poles. There is also something about a baby being born in a staple, but no-one pays any attention to that now. | 2019-04-26T08:20:23 | http://gopsi.ucalegon.com/encyclopedia/christma.htm |

I've had my Honda now 20+ years. Starts on the second pull if it hasn't run in a few months. Quietest generator I've ever heard. Honda's are an investment, and they keep providing returns for many many years. I could sell it tomorrow for at least 1/2 of what I paid for it. But why, it will give me another 20 years with minimum maintenance and expense.
My Honda was purchased 8 years before Champion started making generators. The cost was well below your 10X figure. The db rated in the manual is 49-58. The Honda is an inverted, the Champion is not. Champion is fine if you want to power frybabies and the like, sophisticated electronics call for an inverter. Tell me about your Champion in 12 more years. And as for personal finances, no need to go there.
Caleb, you fail to mention one fact, that the Champion runs at full speed, all the time, therefore max noise.
a inverter generator will idle at a much lower speed, when charging batteries, lights and fridge and stays at its lower decibel levels.
only when the a/c or microwave or blow dryer are running, does an inverter gennie rev up and get louder.
so, you have to compare the 49-53db of an inverter gennie to the all-the-time 68db of the Champion.
i agree that the Champion offers the most bang for the buck and has great customer service. i almost bought one until the DW said, no generator unless it's quiet as they get. so i got a nearly-new Honda 2000 for $650, from Craig's List. and i don't feel suckered at all. and it weighs half what the Champion weighs.
and, lucky us, it runs our 13.5btu Dometic a/c!
and i've heard the Champion, next to my Honda 2000 and it's way louder.
No joke you run a 13,5 AC with a 2000 watt Gen? From all I've read I thought it took a min of 2800 watts to start a 13.5. So i went and bought two 2000 watt genny's to run connected? Dang....Did I just waste a bunch of money?
How many ACs, power centers, microwaves, TVs, etc. will need to be replaced before the cheaper cost of a generator with dirty power equals that of an inverter generator ??
Around here, power tools for framing a house are toast after just a few houses built using a construction generator. Don't know why they just go and buy a inverter generator....maybe they don't work as well for that type of application, or it is just cheaper to replace a couple of power saws.
WOW This is a great debate. The fact is you will never convince someone who spent 2000 on a generator that there is a generator for a little over 200 that can do the same job. For someone who needs a gen 1 or 2 times a year and a little bit of creativity on how you direct the sound, 67 db can be put up with very easily.
Champion is rated at approximately 3 hrs per gallon. Honda 6 hrs per gallon. 1200 hrs is 200 additional gallons of gasoline for the Champion, quite a few more irritated neighbors, and how many fried electical devices? Go into this with your eyes open, and you get what you pay for.
MREZ - Two things - you must not run a 67db generator at a CG very often because you're still here.
I agree that using one at home or when dry camping far from anyone else would be acceptable, but c'mon, there is no way you can "direct the sound" in a typical CG so that your neighbors are willing to put up with 67db. You might not be bothered by it, but I truly hope that I am not camping anywhere near you.
Check out the video that probably everyone who owns a Honda has seen before. 1 minute and 45 seconds into the video is where a construction generator is pushed up to full load (69db). That's LOUD, wouldn't you agree? | 2019-04-18T15:40:44 | http://www.forestriverforums.com/forums/f188/generator-purchase-champion-4000-a-11582-3.html |

Brother MFC-J410W Printer Drivers. Especially as a student or with students in the household a printer is almost essential and often associated with much trouble. We have therefore tried this Brother 4-in-1 color inkjet printer.
This Brother MFC-J410W printer has Wi-Fi and can therefore be installed everywhere. Once he was unpacked and connected, he even led us independently through the commissioning, the instruction was actually not necessary. Although the device itself has a proud size, it looks relatively compact due to the many retractable compartments and makes a cleared-up impression. The printer can print both photo paper and normal paper up to A3 size. Up to A4 size, it also prints in duplex. If you connect it to the telephone socket, it can be used as a fax, in addition it is possible to scan, copy and, of course, to print. From the beginning the cartridges Black (LC-3217BK), Cyan (LC-3217C), Magenta (LC-3217M), Yellow (LC-3217Y) are included. Optionally it is possible to use XL cartridges. All cartridges are to be used separately and can also be ordered separately. The costs are fine, but I could not find the cartridges here at Amazon but only at another provider or in the store.
The Brother MFC-J410W printer is connected either by cable or just by W-Lan (with app for example, tablet or smartphone). All connection variants were uncomplicated and set up very quickly without separate instructions. The connection via W-Lan is also very stable and it does not actually come to an annoying continuous search of the printer. For us, printing directly from the tablet / smartphone or simply via W-Lan due to its simplicity and local independence is now the preferred way to print. | 2019-04-24T11:59:20 | https://www.driverstorage.com/2016/03/brother-mfc-j410w-printer-driver_6.html |
functional acknowledgement status on 940's "Part Accepted"
1. functional acknowledgement status on 940's "Part Accepted"
Occasionally, we run into the issue where the functional acknowledgement status on our 940's show as "part accepted"
This seems to happen randomly without any precursors.
I have confirmed with SPS that these 940's were all accepted which leads me to believe this is an issue with NAV and not SPS.
Has any one encountered this issue before or have any insight as to what might be causing it?
Thanks in advance to any help! | 2019-04-21T19:08:47 | https://www.navug.com/communities/community-home/digestviewer/viewthread?GroupId=49&MessageKey=90c1b0ab-0a7d-42f8-9f82-67873840328e&CommunityKey=95503735-5a0b-4af1-8326-9bd7bb3b4d3d&tab=digestviewer |
This is not a pure Italian translation issue, it looks, after investigation and discussion with Italian native speakers, a question more related of how professions are recorded in Calabria (or whole Italy?).
The question is related to a record from the 19th century located in Calabria. I do not know if the registers are in Italian or are in Calabrese (notice during that period Italian unification happened, so each country was having a different language/dialect).
I have noticed that several registers include Italian adjectives as professions, more concretely the professions "civile" and "legale" (which translates to civil and legal in English).
What do "civile" and "legale" mean exactly in English as professions?
How are professions recorded in Italian (Calabrian) records?
In 19th Century Italian documents, I've seen avvocato for lawyer, as well as legista. While legale translates as law, like you I've been unable to find a conclusive answer. However, if not lawyer as we understand the term today, it shows legal knowledge, perhaps one who gives legal counsel and, thus, a person in a higher position in society, as does civile. Civile translates as civilized, a middle class citizen, someone who was well off (and perhaps a landowner although other terms were used, such as possidente, one who owns, and proprietario, literally owner). I lack insight into Calabrian records, as my research has been confined to Campania.
In the archives of the Mezzogiorno we find civile used in different manners - as noted here already, at times we find it used more liberally to include the middle class but quite often it in fact denotes a more elevated class.
I have controlled records where nobles were listed as "civile" and even more often as "legale" which at times was used to denote an actual legal class that thanks to a real dispaccio di ferdinand iv, gave families that held that class for 3 generations and did not enter a more base line profession or marry a lower class family, they would potentially meet requirements to apply to become recognized as nobles (the third class of nobility, first being ancient feudal families - nobilta generosa, second class being the families that gained nobility from service to the crown - nobilta di Privilego, and the third being the families that are often listed as "legale""
1.3.) PRIMO CETO "FAMIGLIE NOBILI" - TERZA CATEGORIA "NOBILTA' LEGALE O CIVILE": comprenda quelli, [i]i quali facciano costare avere così essi (*), che il loro Padre, ed Avo vissuto in Città demaniale, e regia, escluse le baronali, sempre civilmente con decoro, e comodità, senza esercitare carica, e impiego basso, e popolare, e sono sempre stati riputati dal Pubblico Uomini onorati, e dabbene. Quella della terza equivalga alla seconda, e comprenda anche i Negozianti di Cambio, o sia di Ragione, i di cui Padre, ed Avo abbiano esercitato lo stesso impiego, e non altro d’inferior condizione. Con i Figli delli Ufiziali Subalterni si abilitano ancora quelli degli Uditori di Provincia, e di Governatori Regj: i primi all’età di 16 anni, i secondi in quella di anni 18. E finalmente i Figli de’ Mercanti di lana, e di seta, de’ quali il Padre, ed Avo abbiano fatto ugual negozio, possian essere aggraziati a servire da Cadetti solamente nell’età di anni 18.
For some further classification of possidente and propretario - in many cases we find possidente to mean someone not working and living off of a pension of some business or inheritance, whereas propretario often suggests the owner of the land/business is more directly involved in the management/trading of the operation. A possidente may have had someone to do this. Granted both are used interchangeably and alone don't qualify any family into any sort of class.

Roll-Kraft has identified the most frequent reasons that cause tube and pipe scrap issues when running tube and pipe mills. A few routine changes can avoid costly expenditures. Making good choices of materials and defining proper setups are just two of the basic considerations necessary to achieving good production. A complete list of solutions is available on the Roll-Kraft blog.
Scrap issues cause frequent unwelcomed problems for all tube and pipe producers at one time or another. They can be costly and cause delays in production. Every effort should be employed to avoid scrap. Chuck Gehrisch, president of Roll-Kraft points out, "Preventing scrap is absolutely critical to increasing profits." That is why Roll-Kraft has developed a specific list of issues that should be avoided in order to improve quality and production.
Appearing prominently on the list is the use of proper materials. Materials that are inconsistent chemically, have improper strip width-to-gauge tolerances, crown or camber problems, and perhaps inconsistent slit edge conditions will lead to difficulties. Producing a good tube and pipe product requires beginning with good material.
Scrap can also be caused by improper setups on the mill. A setup chart should always be used as a reference. This will provide assurance that the rolls are in the proper position. Documenting and repeating setup patterns will save time and give accuracy during future tooling changes.
Then, you must be sure the tooling is well designed and made of good quality material. This is not the place to cut costs and accept second best. It will only cost more in the long run.
It is very important to do periodic preventative maintenance to determine if the mill needs adjustment or tooling is worn. Mis-alignment and heavily worn tooling will cause problems. The benefits of doing preventative maintenance can far outweigh the replacement costs of time and materials to reproduce the bad production.
While it is ideal and often expected that every production run be as planned, taking a few extra steps to evaluate the situation can go a long way in preventing scrap and producing the best possible tube or pipe product.
The complete list of tips to avoid scrap can be downloaded and printed from the Roll-Kraft blog spot at the top of the company website. Also, there are many technical bulletins on the subject of tube and pipe production, which are available in the Profit Pointer section of the website. Customized solutions to these and other specific issues can be answered by contacting Roll-Kraft directly or choosing Dr. Resolve when visiting the website.

Ensuring that policies are communicated effectively for the benefit of patients depends on building good working relationships with external stakeholders and requires good working relations with the European Commission and Parliament.
As GAMIAN-Europe develops its policy work, it is increasingly able to support interactive dialogues on key policy issues with members of the European Parliament and the European Commission interested in mental health.
This basically means that the Commission cannot propose legislation in most of the health areas referred to above. Nevertheless, there is a growing recognition of the need for Member States to cooperate, exchange experience, and learn from each other: apart from the fact that “health knows no borders,” Member States are all facing the same challenges, and cooperation and shared learning is more effective than re-inventing the wheel 27 times.
Over recent years, the EU has addressed many different issues in relation to heath, such as health inequalities, patients’ rights in cross-border care, and health threats, as well as specific disease areas such as cancer, rare diseases, and Alzheimer’s disease.
To open up a platform for involving stakeholders including patient and civil society organisations into building solutions.
In this Green Paper, the Commission proposes for an EU-strategy to focus on promoting the mental health of all, addressing mental ill health through preventive action, improving the quality of life of people with mental ill health or disability through social inclusion and the protection of their rights and dignity and developing a mental health information, research and knowledge system for the EU.
Hold national mental health workshops in each Member State and Iceland and Norway.
The EU Compass also supported the work of the EU-Group of Governmental Experts on Mental Health and Well-being through the preparation of scientific papers.
The Compass has recently come to an end and no concrete follow up activities have been planned. Mental health is now being addressed as part of the wider EU activity on chronic disease.
The European Parliament runs an active Interest Group on Mental health , Well-being and Brain Disorders (GAMIAN-Europe is coordinating this Group); action is taken to ensure relevant references to mental health in EU proposals.
Why address mental health at EU level?
There are many reasons why mental health should be a health and social policy priority across the board. First of all, mental disorders cause immense suffering for individuals, families and communities. They put pressure on health, educational, economic, labour market and social welfare systems across the EU.
These disorders are highly prevalent and increasing in the EU: 50 million citizens – about 11% of the population – are estimated to experience mental health disorders. Depression is the most prevalent health problem in many EU-Member States, with suicide remaining a major cause of death: in the EU, there are about 58,000 suicides per year (75% are committed by men). Nine of the ten countries with the highest rates of suicide in the world are in the European Region.
Only 50 % of those affected by depression receive treatment. In European countries, at least 30% of people with severe mental disorders do not have access to mental health care, and the majority do not benefit from the interventions that have proved to be effective in prevention and promotion.
There is a link between mental health problems and losses of productive human capital: research has shown that there are substantial costs associated with mental disorders, such as higher presenteeism and absenteeism or significantly reduced earnings.
Stigma, prejudice and discrimination unfortunately are widespread and have a huge impact on those affected seeking or receiving help and support.
On a more positive note, there is increasing data proving that positive mental health and well-being is a key factor for social cohesion, economic progress and sustainable development in the EU – so the need to prevent mental illness and promote mental health is increasingly recognised by policy makers.
In many or most cases mental ill health can be prevented, cured, treated and managed. A more widespread understanding of this fact might help to combat stigma.
Over recent years the European Commission has taken various steps to ensure a place for mental health on the EU political agenda. The Commission Green Paper ‘Improving the mental health of the population: Towards a strategy on mental health for the European Union’ (2004) proposed an EU-strategy to focus on promoting the mental health of all. However – and disappointingly – the idea of a concrete strategy did not meet with sufficient support from the Member States so instead, the Commission came forward with the European Pact for Mental Health and Well-being (2008); This concentrated on 5 themes, i.e. prevention of depression and suicide, mental health in older people, mental health in youth and education, mental health in workplace settings and stigma and social inclusion.
A number of high level conferences took place, leading to a set of Council Conclusions (2011). These recognised mental well-being as an essential constituent of health and quality of life, and a prerequisite for the ability to learn, work and contribute to social life. Importantly; the Conclusions invited Member States to make mental health and well-being a priority of their health policies and to develop strategies and/or action plans on mental health including depression and suicide prevention.
The Council Conclusions also invited Member States and the Commission to put in place a Joint Action on Mental Health and Well-being (2013), building on the findings of the Pact, aiming at building a framework for action in mental health policy at U level.
policies and activities by Member States and non-governmental stakeholders. The Compass has now come to an end.
Currently, no specific action on mental health is foreseen when the work of the Compass comes to an end. Instead, the Commission intends to address mental health as part of its more general chronic disease agenda.
All in all, it is fair to day that, while relevant, EU-level action on mental health has been disappointing – and the current move to address mental health as part of the general chronic disease agenda will decrease the visibility and potential of mental health issues even more. So clearly, action needs to be taken to ensure a robust place for mental health on the EU policy agenda.
The Interest Group on Mental Health, Well-being and Brain Disorders, coordinated by GAMIAN-Europe, aims to do just that. It was launched in 2009 and works to ‘advocate the development of sound EU policies which contribute to prevention of mental health problems and ensure good services, care and empowerment for those affected by mental health problems’.
The Group meets 3 times a year and aims to address current EU policy files and topics; its co-chairs regularly table Written Questions as well as amendments to Commission reports to ensure a strong mental health dimension in all policies that have a bearing on health and well-being.
Since its inception, the Group has stimulated stronger collaboration between the various EU-level mental health stakeholders and to amplify the voice of patients in policy development.
One of its main activities over the last two years has been the development of a rationale and draft framework for a future EU level Action Programme on Mental Health and Well-being. Prepared by GAMIAN-Europe, it outlines the specific reasons why there is a need for such an Action Plan and makes the case for the added value of a much more ambitious EU-level initiative in this area, building on the work that has already been done.
All Member States are facing the same issues in relation to tackling mental ill-health, both with respect to prevention and mental health promotion as well as the development and implementation of effective and sustainable care provision models. For instance, the current trend towards community health care requires clear strategies and policies to ensure quality of and access to appropriate care.
Many countries are struggling with this development and Member States can (continue to) benefit from cooperation, mutual learning and the exchange of good (and bad) practice.
GAMIAN-Europe and the Interest Group believe that, through the various EU-level actions that have already been taken, the foundations have been laid for more ambitious and structured actions, which will actually engage the relevant policy makers as well as other stakeholders (e.g. patients). There are EU level precedents for more ambitious actions in specific health areas, for instance in fields of cancer and rare diseases.
A more ambitious approach would also be in line with the expected outcomes of the Joint Action, which aimed to ‘build capacity of national mental health leaders and other stakeholders in mental health policy development and the creation of mechanisms supporting a structured collaboration between key actors in the implementation of mental health policies in Europe’.
Actions on Corporate Social Responsibility, health and safety in the work place and the Employment Strategy.
would be to consider designating one of the coming years as the European Year of Mental Health and Well-being.
As already referred to in the 2011 Council Conclusions, national action plans on mental health could be put in place, using the existing national actions plans on cancer and rare diseases as models: these plans should be established to explore appropriate measures for mental health in order to ensure that patients with mental health problems have access to high-quality care, including diagnostics, treatments and rehabilitation. National plans can also be useful for mutual learning and exchange., with the Group of Governmental Experts on Mental Health acting as a coordinating mechanism for a structured and effective exchange and mutual learning.
A number of the above initiatives hold the potential for funding (e.g. the health programme, the Structural Funds, Horizon2020). This funding could contribute to capacity building of mental health organisations in relation to provision of support (e.g. emotional support, exchanges, information) and advocacy (e.g. policy development, practical solutions). It could also support the exchange of information, research and networking.
The Horizon2020 programme should continue to issue specific calls for research projects addressing mental health in future calls for proposals under the action ‘Tackling Societal Changes’, section ‘Health, demographic change and well-being’. The EU-funded ROAMER project has developed a sensible and inclusive roadmap for research in this area, which could provide guidance on priority setting and the most pressing issues.
Any strategy or policy addressing mental health should be developed as a joint effort by all key stakeholders from societal and policy sectors concerned, including representative organisations active in the field of mental health should explicitly be included in social and health consultations as well as in relevant fora and advisory boards.
There are EU-level precedents for this type Action Plan and given the impact and relevance of mental ill health on individuals, their families, their communities and society as a whole, it is imperative that action should be taken. It has already been recognised by the EU-level that ‘complementary action and a combined effort at EU-level can help Member States tackle these challenges by promoting good mental health and well-being in the population, strengthening preventive action and self-help, and providing support to people who experience mental health problems and their families’. Initiatives like the Joint Action have laid the foundations for a more sustained and structured effort at EU and national levels. The momentum of the Joint Action should now be put to use as a useful starting point for a more ambitious effort to ensure sound policy development, with the ultimate aim to improve the quality of life of those affected by mental health problems. | 2019-04-22T04:38:56 | https://www.gamian.eu/activities/europe/ |
“What’s your blood type?” my daughter asks me.
I walk an average of five miles a day, five days a week. Sometimes I walk with friends, and I’ve done marathons and multi-day events with groups, but I prefer to walk alone. I’m fast, and few of my walking buddies can match my pace. I do it for my heart, my back and bones, my head. It’s my time to make plans and solve problems, dissect conversations, compose stories.
Road ID is a dog tag that you wear on your wrist, ankle or shoe. It has your name and address, medical alerts, emergency contact info. In case your incoherent form is found along the side of the road; in case you’ve lost your bearings or your memory.
Does my daughter think I’m getting too old to be let loose on my own?
Several years ago we were at a beach party celebrating her in-laws’ fiftieth anniversary. After a big spread of grilled meats, New Mexico chili and lots of salads and sides, cakes and cookies, most of the adults—those who weren’t watching small children—stretched out on grassy spots under trees and nodded off. I’m not a napper, so I seized the opportunity to walk off my lunch. I set out briskly along the bayside path. It was a gorgeous early-summer day, warm but with a light breeze off the water. Sailboats and catamarans bobbled in the bay, children splashed and played along the shore, aromas of woodsmoke and barbecue sauce swirled through the air.
When I returned an hour later, Jennifer stormed up to me, hands on her hips. It reminded me of my mother’s stance; was it mine too?
“Where have you been?” she yelled. “I’ve been frantic.” She sounded like my mother too, reprimanding me for childish misdeeds.
Did she think I’d been kidnapped, drowned, overtaken by amnesia? Heavens, I thought, was this the beginning of my dotage? Had we switched roles, come full circle; was she now my caretaker? I was still in my 50s, hardly decrepit, she in her mid-30s. I chuckled at her indignation and assured her of my well-being and sound mind.
But things are different now, and I look back on that day as a turning point in my relationship with my daughter. From birth into adulthood, it had always been about her; her fretting about me was something new. I had been a self-absorbed kid too, oblivious of my mother as a person. Maybe we all are. Wasn’t her purpose in life to be there for me? To hear my triumphs and woes, to kiss my “owies” and make me lime Jello with grapes when I’m sick? I don’t remember when I turned the corner with my mother, but I didn’t have the luxury of being babied as an adult; her fragile health meant that she was the one who had to be sheltered. She died at 60 when I was 33.
In contrast, I’ve always been strong and healthy, answering to “Mo-o-om”—that’s with three syllables—for Jennifer since her earliest utterances. When she was grown and had launched out on her own I was still there for her: with a loan, a shoulder to cry on, a recipe for meat loaf, unwavering support.
too. And she tells me everything, as she always has, perhaps with a little more whining than she might with her friends. After all, I’m still the mom. Role reversals between parents and adult children seem almost inevitable, though, and the time may come when I have to yield some of my stubborn independence and let her take charge. It won’t be easy on either of us.
I strap my stainless steel Road ID onto my left shoe, sealing its Velcro gripper. I tie the sturdy Asics that she bought me for my last birthday because she wanted me to have good walking shoes: “…properly fit, Mom, not whatever you find on the clearance rack at DSW.” I’m off on a solo five-mile power walk, secure in the knowledge that if I’m found sprawling and speechless, her number is the one they’ll call. | 2019-04-21T00:39:59 | https://aliceloweblogs.wordpress.com/published-work/on-the-road-again/ |

My son is now 6 years of age and using my computer. I don’t mind him going onto the computer to play silly little games, but my wife has brought it to my attention that my PC version of Grand Theft Auto is probably not something he is ready for. On top of that, my wife is always scared that when he is on the internet, he will see other things he might not be ready to see until he is at least 35. Is there an easy way to put child blocks on the computer?
You can use Parental Controls to help manage how your 6 year old can use the computer. Some examples of limits you can set are; types of games they can play by rating, programs they can run, web filtering, and even a time limit on game play.
When the Parental Control blocks access, it will bring up a notification saying it has been blocked, and ask for your information in order to open it up.
Before you can set up the Parental Controls, you must own your own administrator account. You must also make sure that your child has a Standard User account, and not an administrator account, as Parental Controls cannot be applied to an administrator account.
First you have to open Parental Controls by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, and then, under User Accounts and Family Safety, clicking Set up parental controls for any user. If you’re prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. Then you click the standard user account that you want to set Parental Controls for. Under Parental Controls, click on enforce current settings.
• Time limits.You can set time limits to control when children are allowed to log on to the computer. Time limits prevent children from logging on during the specified hours. You can set different logon hours for every day of the week. If they’re logged on when their allotted time ends, they’ll be automatically logged off.
• Games. You can control access to games, choose an age-rating level, choose the types of content you want to block, and decide whether you want to allow or block unrated or specific games.
• Allow or block specific programs. You can prevent children from running programs that you don’t want them to run. | 2019-04-23T22:07:38 | http://tbyd.ca/parental-controls-2/ |
Why has Dogecoin Core Wallet grown internationally?
Nowadays we will talk a little Dogecoin Github regarding Dogecoin Core Wallet, which is one of many virtual purses that are at present giving you something to talk about because of its international progress. It should be noted that this is a digital wallet that’s quite basic, which is carried out with a complete node system so that it can support the complete Doge network.
Despite the fact that Doge QT Wallet uses Blockchain or even Blockchain technology, it provides a configuration that isn’t complicated for users. Just as, if the individual does not want to use the node techniques completely provided by the platform, he may choose to use others or software of electronic wallets that are compatible with Doge.
Nevertheless, experts in the area recommend users to use the particular systems and wallets that are available on the official website, to avoid any type of problem. In addition, it’s a safer approach to guarantee that the particular decentralized system actively works to store purchase information.
For that reason, the most reliable option is to safeguard your investments using Dogecoin Core Wallet, where the plan is responsible for saving virtual foreign currencies in the customer’s computer like it have been a file. On the other hand, users needs to be careful whenever reinstalling this program, since it will not create a back up copy and may lose formerly earned cash.

Any AP story that requires interviews with the co-owner of an East Village karaoke bar and the co-host of a public radio show about the English language is absolutely fine by our Christmas carol songbook.
Planet Rose co-owner Missy O’Reilly says one of the Christmas songs that consistently surprises her karaoke customers when the words start scrolling is “Fairytale of New York,” co-written by Shane MacGowen of The Pogues. AP writer Italie even tracked down a member of a band named after the Harper’s-originated term.

5 Tips to improve your English Speaking!
You can train your brain to speak English. As a matter of fact, most of the times when you get stuck and cannot speak English is due to the fact that your brain never gets enough practice, so it (your brain) cannot build the confidence to speak English well despite all the lessons you may have studied all your life.
That is to say, it doesn’t matter how much you have studied. If you have not worked on strategies to help you practice (with someone or alone), you will always feel stuck when you need to talk in English. The 5 tips I am about to show you will feed your brain with speaking possibilities. That way you will gradually build up the confidence to speak English in public whether it is a job interview, during a trip abroad, when making new friends and so many other situations!
When you are building the confidence to speak in English, it is not easy to simply start talking. That’s why it is important to choose a subject (a topic) because then you will be able to study specific materials to help you talk about that subject. If you have problems to speak, don’t expect to easily and naturally start talking.
Focus on simple subjects. Define a list of 5 subjects you want to master. Then move on to my tip number 2.
Now that you know what exactly you want to talk about, what conversations you need to master, prepare the vocabulary you are going to need. If you need to prepare for a job interview, what words, phrases, expressions, verbs and qualities are you going to need? And remember, you don’t need the most difficult and advanced vocabulary, communication is not about being great with words, but being efficient with words.
Watch native speakers talking about the subject you chose.
Let’s go back to the job interview example. Now that you have studied some vocabulary, expressions even a little grammar (like present and past), it is time to watch other people do it. Kids learn by example. Do that too. The more examples you can watch of people talking, the better.
HOWEVER, don’t “passively” watch those videos. Take notes, pause, repeat, practice shadowing, copy some of their phrases (that can be useful for you) That’s how you learn by example!
Now, it is time to do some oral practicing! Yep! And you can do it alone! No problems! Find a quiet room where you can feel comfortable and no one will disturb you. Take a look at your notes and start talking about that subject, ALONE. This is a rehearsal of the real conversation. Your brain doesn’t really know what is real and what is fake. This is what we can mental rehearsal/practice. The more you do that, the more your brain will believe you can do it!
Imagine you are talking to someone in English and start speaking.
As you do your mental practice while orally speaking the words in English, record your voice. That way, when you are done, you can give yourself some positive feedback on what you can do better. See the parts that were difficult for you to explain or the words you forgot and try again! This is a great way to practice speaking!
Follow these tips and let me know how that goes for you! | 2019-04-20T16:50:07 | https://www.teacherprix.com/ |
Ahmedabad’s Janmarg is a world-class BRT system. Photo by velaparatodo.
The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, along with CEPT University, is launching the Asia BRTS Conference to be held on September 6-8, 2012, with the goal of improving knowledge, sharing experiences and advancing the concept of bus rapid transit (BRT) in India and across Asia. Currently, more than 25 Asian cities have implemented BRT systems and bus corridors, with varying degrees of success; and many more are at different stages of planning and implementation. The conference comes at a critical point in the evolution of BRTs in Asia. Recognizing that while existing debates have focused on architecture and engineering, there is a lot to learn from successful cities about engaging stakeholders, branding and communication, network selection, and operations planning.
The conference will have local and international experts, including those from the Ministry of Urban Development, the Asian Development Bank, the Clean Air Initiative for Asian Cities, the Latin American Association for Integrated Transport Systems and Bus Rapid Transit (SIBRT), the International Association of Public Transport (UITP), and EMBARQ (the producer of this blog.) The Asia BRTS Association (ABA) will be launched as an international network of Asian cities, transit authorities, operators, policy and decision-makers, technical institutes, and the public transport manufacturing and service industry.
More than 140 cities around the world have taken to implementing BRT and bus corridors to help mitigate the growing urbanization, motorization and subsequent congestion of urban road transport networks. BRT systems were developed with the goal of approaching the service quality of rail transit but with the flexibility and cost of bus transit. They are not usually meant to replace heavy rail, but rather, to complement multimodal transit networks.
Bus systems provide faster, convenient and more efficient public transport services by building on existing infrastructure, improving the quality of vehicles, and optimally managing scheduling. Bus corridors in cities around the world have been successful because of their quick implementation and relative low cost. Curitiba’s Rede Integrada de Transporte (Integrated Transport Network), which includes the world’s first BRT, currently has a set of corridors of 81 kilometers, transporting 505,000 passengers every day, and Jakarta’s TransJakarta BRT, at a length of 134 kilometers, carries 330,000 passengers every day. Bogota’s TransMilenio is being expanded in 2012 from 87 kilometers to 104 kilometers, and will scale from moving 1.8 million passengers to more than 2 million every day.
Currently, the members of SIBRT include representatives from 19 agencies in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, Peru, Guatemala and Paraguay, serving a combined ridership of over 20 million passengers every day.
Just as the members of SIBRT are committed to encourage innovation, foster efficient and reliable mass transit, and demonstrate how BRT integrated into the wider transportation network of the city can help improve public health, safety, quality of life and economic competitiveness in Latin American cities, it is hoped that the Asia BRTS Association (ABA) would facilitate a pan-Asian forum, that would help cities in the region build capacity, and leverage the exchange of ideas towards technological innovations and the promotion of best practices.
Closer to home, Ahmedabad’s Janmarg system has been extremely successful, and has been the recipient of national and international awards. With the current corridor length at 45 kilometers, and an additional 40 kilometers under construction, Janmarg has an average ridership of 132,033 passengers every day.
In India, increased urbanization, population growth, the drastic rise in private vehicle usage, and induced demand caused by traditional approaches to improving urban mobility of constructing highways and roads for general traffic, have had significant detrimental effects for cities. Implementing high-quality, safe, fast and accessible bus-based transport, integrated into the urban public transport network, is an important part of improving the quality of life for people in cities. BRT systems, like Janmarg, that include key features like dedicated bus lanes, bus priority at intersections, stations with level boarding and pre-payment, performance and monitoring indicators, and a cohesive communication and branding strategy, will not only improve the efficiency of public transport, but it will also improve air quality, increase physical activity, and improve road safety—all contributing to an improved quality of life. Other Indian bus corridors, like those in Delhi and Pune, have key features missing, which has led to their less than optimal success. | 2019-04-24T22:17:11 | https://thecityfix.com/blog/brt-knowledge-sharing-in-asia-the-latin-american-way/ |

A lasting way to provide for the protection of Minnesota’s extraordinary natural beauty is to include the Minnesota Land Trust in your estate plans.
The Minnesota Land Trust received its first bequest from the estate of Michael Meunier, whose passion for the outdoors was cut short when he died in 1997 at the age of 47. We launched the Land Trust Legacy Society in his memory and as a celebration of his love for Minnesota’s beautiful lands. Please join others who have demonstrated their commitment to Minnesota’s future and become a member of the Land Trust Legacy Society.
You can leave assets such as real estate, art, jewelry, qualified retirement plans, paid life insurance policies, or other financial investments such as stocks or bonds.
Your attorney and other professional advisors can help you consider the range of options based on your situation.
The Minnesota Land Trust can often use gifts of real estate to further its mission of permanent land protection. If you would like to donate land or other real estate to the Minnesota Land Trust through your will, we encourage you to consider giving us the flexibility to accept the property without restrictions. Also, we request that you talk with us before deciding to do this.
Assets in qualified (tax-deferred) retirement plans may represent a large portion of your total assets and therefore may be an important factor in planning testamentary charitable gifts. Retirement assets generally considered suitable for charitable gifts include such plans as IRAs, Keoghs, SEPs, 401(k)s, 403(b)s, and ESOPs.
As a general rule, if you intend to make both non-charitable and charitable gifts at death, it makes sense to consider using your tax-deferred retirement plan assets for charity (the Minnesota Land Trust is a tax-exempt institution) and other assets for heirs.
Naming the Minnesota Land Trust as the beneficiary of an existing life insurance policy offers a simple way to support conservation. Since you are the policy owner, the value of the policy will be included in your estate. You may also be able to assign an existing whole life policy to the Minnesota Land Trust, irrevocably making the Minnesota Land Trust the owner and beneficiary. If the policy is not paid up and additional premium payments are due, you may donate cash or the equivalent to the Minnesota Land Trust to pay the premiums each year. Lastly, you may be able to purchase a new policy naming the Minnesota Land Trust as owner and beneficiary, and pay the annual premiums (through the Minnesota Land Trust). These options all may present a charitable tax deduction depending upon the current tax laws. Please consult with a professional tax advisor.
If you donate your land but keep a life estate, you retain ownership and use of the land for the remainder of your life. Upon your death, ownership will be transferred to the Minnesota Land Trust. If you’re interested in leaving your land in this manner, please contact us so that we can discuss your conservation goals for the land.
Please note that our legal name is “Minnesota Land Trust.” The Minnesota Land Trust is a non-profit corporation, organized under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Our federal identification number is 41-1713652.
I give to the Minnesota Land Trust, located in Saint Paul, Minnesota, the sum of $______ to be used wherever the need is greatest.
I give to the Minnesota Land Trust, located in St. Paul, Minnesota, ______% of my estate and request that this gift be used wherever the need is greatest.
I give to the Minnesota Land Trust, located in St. Paul, Minnesota, the rest and residue of my estate and request that this gift be used wherever the need is greatest.
Again, these are only examples of how you might word the language in your will; there are numerous other gifts from your estate, such as personal property, which will be worded differently. Please consult an attorney when crafting your will.
The contents of this page are provided for informational purposes only and are not intended as a substitute for legal, tax, or financial planning advice. The Minnesota Land Trust urges you to consult a professional trained in handling trusts and estates when considering any of these planned giving options. | 2019-04-24T12:25:37 | https://mnland.org/get-involved/give/planned-giving/ |
Logan Together | News & Events | News | Logan Get Together: It’s A Wrap!
Our hearts are full and our heads are still spinning after the whirlwind of collective impact amazingness that was the Logan Get Together. On Thursday October 5 more than 330 people streamed into the Logan Entertainment Centre making the Get Together the largest gathering held as part of the Logan Together movement so far.
In true Logan Together style, the Get Together attracted attendees from the length and breadth of the community sector. Local grass roots volunteers rubbed shoulders with leading international funding organisations, senior Government policy makers got front line feedback from service providers and political representatives from all three levels of Government shared the stage to loudly and proudly voice their continued support of Logan Together.
Throughout the day we were capturing guests’ aspirations for their learnings from the event. The most common theme? The desire to soak up as much information as possible from other guests and the amazing speaker line up. And soak it up they did. Every session was alive with energy and focus from our heavy hitting key note sessions from Professor Sharon Goldfeld and community empowerment juggernaut Rich Harwood, to our table talks where local stars shared grassroots ideas that were flourishing. The energy spilled over to our networking breaks where the room was abuzz with connections being made and revisited and ideas being shared. The enthusiasm and openness of each and every guest made the day the success that it was – it was truly an example of collective impact.
The format of the event allowed guests to experience the morning’s key note sessions as one and then follow their own personal and professional interests through the table talks and breakout sessions that followed. Many attendees chose to broaden their horizons by participating in sessions on topics that were new to them, embracing the opportunity to learn from some of the best in the field. All registered guests have been sent an evaluation survey so we can capture what worked and what didn’t, what people want to see more of and what concepts or ideas we may have missed.
While we’re still awaiting those results we’re thrilled to say that, since the event, our inboxes have been overflowing with messages of positivity from so many who have already found ways to incorporate their learnings into their daily work. Everyone who worked on the event are proud as punch that we seem to have hit the nail on the head in terms of what you wanted to experience.
So at the end of the day what was achieved? We shared evidence based research that backs our work to provide kids everywhere with an equal opportunity at a great start in life. We heard all levels of Government put their money where their mouths are and continue their already substantial support of Logan Together. We went on a ride with a people’s hero who helped us identify the keys to unlocking community potential. And we were inspired by passion projects and real life success stories that show it can be done – we can make a difference. | 2019-04-23T12:12:34 | http://logantogether.org.au/uncategorized/its-a-wrap/ |
