An error window shows up, warning me that I already have used SPSS trial. But it is not true. I have never installed SPSS on my laptop.

@Giovanni Fancello (PUBLIC REPLY without names/e-mail)
Hello, as a moderator I see you e-mail address here on forum which is the same you used for trial registration:
see mail address on private reply
I looked at the database and found your machine ID and Subscription ID of the device where you have installed: Machine ID: GUID:0df77748-5b1c-4e43-b9b0-5113f2914d2d
Subscription ID: f2c43e2d45214281a8d29553f03e377c
However, on this same machine the trial was already used in April by another user:
Already used for trial on this same machine in April 2018 by: see mail address on private reply Expired on: 2018-04-09
So this cannot work. It is not possible to use the trial on the same machine for different users. You need to purchase the software or use your another machine where the trial was not used before.

40 Snacks Under 100 Calories
Everyone out there who's ever been on a calorie-restrictive diet knows it's incredibly difficult to fight off the cravings and urge to snack. You'll eventually grow hungry and it will be harder and harder to fight these urges unless you're smart about the way you ration your calorie intake throughout the day. Healthy, low-calorie snacks you can eat scattered throughout the day might prove to be a great solution to keeping you on track with your diet and achieving your weight loss goals. I've put together a list of 40 snacks under 100-calories so you can always make the right choice.
Greek Yogurt (100 calories)
1 container (170 g) of nonfat Greek Yogurt has 100 calories. It is rich in protein, contains probiotics and promotes weight loss.

1 Cup of Red Tomatoes has 32 calories. Tomatoes stabilize your blood sugar levels and make you feel satisfied for much longer, due to their high content of biotin and fiber.

There are 19 calories in 1 cup of sliced Radishes. Radishes contain high levels of Iron and Magnesium which help dissolve fat in the cells.

Calorie breakdown: 9% fat, 78% carbs, 13% protein. Bell peppers are rich in vitamin A and vitamin C, folic acid, fiber, and potassium.

1 Lb. Asparagus (91 calories)
Asparagus is a great source of vitamins including B1, B2, B3 and B6 which regulate the blood sugar. There are tons of ways to cook asparagus: boiled, steamed, roasted, sauté… the list is endless and the results equally tasty.

Like many people, I've been involved in my fair share of network marketing and other online businesses over the years. I'm one of the 99% of people though who aren't entirely comfortable 'selling' someone else's business or product to others, so those businesses which enable you to earn an income without having to recruit, build, manage and motivate a big team are the ones I've tended to focus on.
Many online businesses aren't great however at providing effective marketing material, which is why, a couple of years back, I ended up building a few marketing sites myself. Soon I was being asked for replica sites and before long I was selling them online. Unfortunately it wasn't long before the two businesses I'd built the sites for collapsed and disappeared and my fledgling marketing site business died with them. Well not completely …
Along the way I'd come across all sorts of people marketing products that taught you some type of online skill – email marketing, autoresponders, list building, traffic generation, SEO, Youtube ranking, Social Media, Adwords/Adsense, Pay Per Click advertising, Facebook Ads, Blogging, etc, etc. An endless list, and every combination packaged up into 'Ultimate guide to xxxx' and 'Done for you' sort of product suites. Most of those online marketers were selling other people's products to their mailing lists but the smarter ones were, and still are, creating their own products and using various affiliate marketing methods to reach large numbers of potential buyers.
Some of them were making serious money and it reminded me of that old Yukon Gold Rush story where 99% of gold prospectors never made anything, but some other guys made a fortune selling shovels, picks, clothing and maps i.e. selling the tools and information that everyone else needed to go digging for gold.
So here I am in January 2017, doing OK from my 9-5 IT consultancy work and making a consistent passive income from two long standing online businesses – one involving Bitcoin/crypto-currency mining and the other is based around social media and online advertising.
Why am I telling you all this?
Well back in early 2016 I had this idea about a pretty unique online product which ties in with that social media/advertising company. I designed and built the main functionality to prove it could work, but it was pretty clear to me though that although I knew a reasonable amount about online marketing, I'd no real idea how to effectively pull all the required skills together to properly package and market it.
So off I went searching for someone who'd been there and done it successfully many times before and found John Nicholson. His 'Partnership to Success' program aims to take anyone through the process of developing an online presence, researching, identifying and developing a new product package, and launching it into the online marketplace.
Setting up a blog is one of the first parts of the course and so here it is. Over the next weeks and months, this blog will develop and expand as the course progresses. I'm aiming to provide a commentary on the course in the 'P2S' (Partnership To Success) section and in due course, also set up and post in other sections about the products I'm using and how they've helped with my other businesses.
So please follow my blog and watch how everything develops. You never know… you might pick up a few things you could use yourself along the way.

|Evolution of the Daleks
The Daleks invade 1930s New York in their most devious plan yet.
A young man, Laszlo, gives Tallulah, a showgirl, a rosebud before her nightly performance. As she leaves to take the stage, he investigates a sound, and is attacked by a creature that resembles a humanoid pig.
The Doctor and Martha arrive at the Statue of Liberty. Seeing the uncompleted Empire State Building, the Doctor estimates the date, while Martha finds a newspaper dated 1st November 1930. The Doctor notes the headline 'Hooverville Mystery Deepens' and reads about people going missing. He then takes Martha to Central Park where a Hooverville is located. Solomon, leader of the Hooverville, tells them that people disappear at night, leaving behind their few possessions. He asks the Doctor why people can build the tallest building in the world but not help the starving people of Hooverville.
At the top of the Empire State Building, Mr Diagoras orders a foreman to speed up construction on the mast. When the foreman refuses, Mr. Diagoras summons one of his 'Masters' to deal with him. Dalek Caan and two Pig Men emerge from the lift, and Mr. Diagoras tells them that the foreman is disobeying his orders. Dalek Caan has the foreman taken away for 'the final experiment'. He then orders Mr. Diagoras to recruit more 'bodies' for the final experiment.
Mr. Diagoras arrives at the Hooverville to recruit workers to clear a collapse in the sewers, offering a dollar a day. Intrigued by an admission that people sometimes fail to return, the Doctor accepts the job. Martha goes with him, along with Solomon and a young man named Frank. Mr. Diagoras sends them half a mile in, but they find no obstruction, just a green lump of alien flesh. The Doctor examines and pockets it. Next they come across a lone Pig Slave. As the Doctor talks to it, more Pig Slaves arrive, and chase the Doctor and friends through the sewers.
Mr. Diagoras orders the crew working on the Empire State Building to attach strange strips of metal (taken from a Dalek's 'skirt') to the base of the mast, and to complete the task that night. The workers complain about the unsafe conditions, but comply after Diagoras threatens to replace them. After they leave, Dalek Caan discusses the construction with Mr. Diagoras, and mentions that his planet was destroyed in a war, while humans survive across time, building and rebuilding New York City. Mr. Diagoras tells the Dalek that he fought in a war, and that he promised himself he would survive at any cost. Noting that Diagoras is most like them in mentality, Dalek Sec orders him to the basement, where he is seized for use in their 'final experiment'.
The Doctor, Martha and Solomon escape the sewers through a manhole, but Frank is captured. The others emerge in the theatre, where Tallulah points a gun at them. She demands to know what they did with Laszlo, who disappeared two weeks earlier. The Doctor gets Tallulah to discard the gun (which was only a prop), and Tallulah tells them about Laszlo's disappearance. The Doctor and Solomon search for equipment the Doctor can use to examine the alien flesh, while Martha and Tallulah compare notes about Laszlo and the Doctor. Solomon confesses that he left Frank behind because he was scared. Solomon then returns to the Hooverville, telling everybody about what happened to Frank, and that they must now fight.
Dalek Sec states that, to survive, the Daleks must evolve. Dalek Thay questions the results of the experiment, arguing that merging with humans (an inferior race) is directly against the Dalek philosophy; Dalek Sec counters that, after everything that has happened, there remain millions of Humans but only four Daleks. Dalek Sec intends to sacrifice himself for the survival of the Dalek race, just as Dalek Thay sacrificed the metal from his casing. Dalek Sec opens up his casing and uses his long tentacles to grab Mr. Diagoras. He pulls him closer and envelops him in his own body before dragging him into his casing to begin the 'evolution'.
Martha is watching Tallulah's dance number when she notices a Pig Slave watching from the other side of the stage. She tries sneaking behind the dancers to reach him, but he runs away. Noticing that he is more human than pig, she follows him into the prop store, where he disappears down the manhole.
The Doctor studies the alien flesh, and learns its planet of origin: Skaro. He rushes to find Martha, and hears her scream as she is seized by Pig Slaves. He goes down the manhole after her. Tallulah follows him, despite the Doctor's warning. Moments later, he grabs her and hides as a Dalek glides by. The two then find the Pig Slave that Martha saw: Laszlo, who managed to escape the Dalek lab before his alteration into a Pig Slave was completed.
Back in the Dalek lab, smoke billows from Dalek Sec's casing while he shakes violently. His comrades urge him to cancel the experiment, but he refuses and asks for an injection. Dalek Jast plunges a syringe containing a "chromatin solution" into his casing.
Martha is thrust in with a parade of captives, including Frank. They are met first by Dalek Caan, and then Dalek Thay who reports that "the Dalekanium is in place." The Daleks use their plunger arms to scan their captives' brains as the Doctor hides nearby and watches. Laszlo explains that the "low intelligence" captives become Pig Slaves, while the "high intelligence" ones are designated for 'the final experiment'. Laszlo urges Tallulah to go back without him. The Doctor joins Martha in the high intelligence group as they proceed towards 'the final experiment'. Tallulah runs through the sewers, but gets lost.
The captive party reaches the Dalek lab under the Empire State Building, where Dalek Jast attends to Dalek Sec. The Doctor tells Martha to ask what they are doing; he does not want the Daleks to notice him. Martha steps forward and demands to know what is happening. The Daleks tell her she will bear witness to the rebirth of the Dalek race. Dalek Sec's casing opens, and a humanoid creature emerges, with a Dalek mutant-like head and yellow hands, wearing Mr. Diagoras' suit. It flexes its new limbs as the other three Daleks recoil from it. "I am a Human Dalek," it tells them all, "I am your future..."

This afternoon and evening in Richmond, the House and Senate adopted legislation, HB 5010, encompassing the budget agreement agreed to by Governor Terry McAuliffe and senior legislators.
As reported by Kemper Consulting on Monday, September 15, the budget agreement and bill are intended to finalize the current fiscal year budget (FY 2015) and initially address necessary reductions in the second year of the current biennial budget (FY 2016).
The bill will be communicated to the Governor for his consideration. Kemper Consulting expects him to sign it into law.
The Constitution of Virginia requires a balanced budget. In August, Governor McAuliffe projected additional state general fund shortfalls of more than $345 million in FY 2015 and more than $535 million in FY 2016. These reductions are in addition to the $1.5 billion shortfall forecasted and addressed in the adopted 2014-16 biennial budget. Soon after the announcement of the new shortfalls, the Governor asked state agencies to prepare 5 percent reduction plans for FY 2015 and 7 percent reduction plans for FY 2016. The Governor is in the process of reviewing and ultimately approving state agency reductions.
Key HB 5010 provisions:
- Public Education (K-12): Protects from additional reductions at this time; and
- Higher Education and Local Government: Reductions are lessened compared to additional state agency cuts of up to 5 percent in FY 2015 and up to 7 percent in FY 2016. (The Governor's Office notes average FY 2015 Higher Education reductions of 3.3 percent – some institutions are lower and some are higher than 3.5 percent).
The agreement, but not the bill, requires an additional FY 2016 reduction of more than $270 million. The Governor and General Assembly will address these additional budget cuts during the 2015 regular legislative session that convenes in January.
While the General Assembly adopted HB 5010 today, the House and Senate remain in session this evening. Each chamber is considering health care proposals. Prior to the announcement of the budget agreement, today's session originally was called to address the issue of Medicaid expansion. The Governor, Democratic legislators and a handful of Republican legislators support the enactment of Medicaid expansion in Virginia while a significant majority of Republican legislators oppose federally authorized expansion. In the near term, it is highly unlikely that the General Assembly will agree to accept the federal provisions and funding.
Kemper Consulting will continue to report on key legislative actions as they occur.

According to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the National Physician Payment Transparency Program, also referred to as Open Payments or the Sunshine Act, will require manufacturers of pharmaceuticals or medical devices in California and all other states to report any payments made to teaching hospitals and physicians. The goal is to create transparency regarding the financial relationships among doctors, hospitals and these companies. This information will be available to the general public, which means it can also be accessed and reviewed for relevance when evaluating a potential medical malpractice case.
Specific payments can include purposes such as consulting, travel, research and gifts. The data will be collected by CMS on a yearly basis. It will be made available to the public through a searchable database on the CMS website. The release date for the new transparency program data is September 30 of this year. No assumptions or conclusions by CMS will be made. The point is to allow the public to apply the data to circumstances in which they are involved, or simply to monitor the information. Teaching hospitals and physicians, as well as other groups, will also be able to double-check that the information provided is accurate. This doesn't apply only to Medicare or Medicaid providers. All medical doctors, dentists, optometrists, osteopaths, podiatrists and licensed chiropractors will be included.
Open Payments is encouraging the public and healthcare consumers to access the data as they need to make informed decisions about procedures and treatment. A personal injury victim, when evaluating the facts pertaining to a possible medical malpractice, may find this type of information useful. When seeking compensation for injury or loss due to physician error, misdiagnosis or neglect, the possibility that treatment choices were influenced by some kind of financial gain could be relevant.
As with many government programs, navigating the database may be difficult. If the choice has been made to pursue a legal remedy for personal injury relating to medical care, seeking professional assistance with investigation and legal decisions can help ensure a more positive outcome.

the snowpocalypse of Feb 6th 2010
so this weekend it snowed. a lot. 32″ worth, as a matter of fact. check it out:
do i have a customer service message in here somewhere? maybe not. but this storm, which broke Maryland records. just goes to show you that you have to be prepared for emergency situations, even if you think they'll never happen (like having enough money in your county budget to plow and salt your roads). it's also a good teaching moment – it's bad snow etiquette to shovel your show into the street; especially when no one is plowing. and yay for neighborhood camaraderie when everyone, some of whom you've never seen, comes out to toil away at the snow and double yay's for learning that the grumpy old guy who looks like Santa and sits on his stoop smoking is really a nice grumpy old guy who owns a snow plow. score.
Check out more photos from the DC/area snowpocalypse at flickr. and wherever you are, whatever the weather, i hope you're enjoying it. Because it's going to change eventually. isn't that just the way of it. :-)
like for us, another 10 to 20 inches are expected tomorrow through wednesday. good thing i've got food. oy!

Apple Releases first iPad Pro Ad/
With iPad Pro orders beginning this week, Apple has begun its marketing campaign in force with a new ad for the super-sized tablet. And carrying the title "A Great Big Universe," the ad is certainly trying to drive home the step-up in size while showing off a bit of multitasking in the process.
The ad begins with a colorful montage of different planets and stars around the universe set to the tune of "Sound and Color" by Alabama Shakes. We then zoom out to see that the planetary exploration is taking place on the iPad Pro's big 12.9-inch screen, before the user switches to split view to take some notes on what she's seeing with the Apple Pencil.
To recap, Apple will begin taking orders for the iPad Pro this Wednesday, November 11, and the tablet will start showing up in stores later this week. The expansive slate will be offered up in either 32GB or 128GB storage (with LTE on the 128GB model) sizes, and will run $799 and $1,079, respectively. In addition, you can get your hands on the Apple Pencil for $99 and the Smart Keyboard for $169.

Host Conditionals
When GDB is configured and compiled, various macros are defined or left undefined, to control compilation based on the attributes of the host system. While formerly they could be set in host-specific header files, at present they can be changed only by setting CFLAGS when building, or by editing the source code.
These macros and their meanings (or if the meaning is not documented here, then one of the source files where they are used is indicated) are:
The default name of GDB's initialization file (normally .gdbinit).
Define this if host files use \r\n rather than \n as a line terminator. This will cause source file listings to omit \r characters when printing and it will allow \r\n line endings of files which are "sourced" by gdb. It must be possible to open files in binary mode using O_BINARY or, for fopen, "rb".
The default value of the prompt string (normally "(gdb) ").
The name of the generic TTY device, defaults to "/dev/tty".
Substitute for isatty, if not available.
Define this if binary files are opened the same way as text files.
Define this if the host can handle printing of long long integers via the printf format conversion specifier ll. This is set by the configure script.
Define this if lseek (n) does not necessarily move to byte number n in the file. This is only used when reading source files. It is normally faster to define CRLF_SOURCE_FILES when possible.
Define this to help placate lint in some situations.
Define this to override the defaults of __volatile__ or /**/.

What Kind of Arm Guard Is Best for Archery?
While an arm guard isn't a necessity in the sport of archery, it can be helpful for some archers, especially those new to shooting a bow. The best arm guard for you will be the one that fits properly and offers protection in the area where the bow string tends to hit you the most, suggests the Hamilton Angling and Hunting Association.
What it Does
Archery arm guards serve no other purpose but to protect your arm while you're shooting a bow. Some archers have trouble with their bow string rubbing against the arm they're holding the bow with, which can cause a painful skin rash and bruising. Wearing an arm guard covers that part of the arm so the bow string doesn't make contact with your skin.
Picking Your Type
There are two basic types of arm guards. A full length arm guard is recommended for a beginner, since it offers more protection and can also keep your sleeves from coming into contact with your arrow or bow string. Once you gain experience and learn how to rotate your elbow, you can move on to a standard arm guard that simply attaches to your forearm. It will help keep your arm out of reach of the bow string,
Making Your Own
As of 2013, archery arm guards range in price from around $7 up to $35, but it's possible to make your own for practically nothing. All you need is scissors, a plastic bottle, some elastic and a punch, according to World Archery. Cut out a piece of plastic approximately 7 cm wide by 15 cm long, which you can adjust to fit your size. Punch two holes through each end of the plastic, thread a piece of elastic through both sets of holes, then tie each piece of elastic off to make it tight enough to secure the plastic to your arm.
Additional Archery Accessories
Whether you're going out on a hunt or just doing some target practicing, there are some other accessories you may need for your safety. A shirt guard can hold your clothing tight against your body, eliminating the chance of your string getting caught on the fabric. Finger tabs can help protect your fingers and prevent blisters. Alternatively, you could try a mechanical handheld release or a wrist release.

Despite several delays, developer and publisher Bethesda officially announces both Skyrim: Special Edition and Fallout 4 on PlayStation 4 are to have mods.
About a month ago, Bethesda stated that there would be no PS4 mods for its post-apocalyptic RPG Fallout 4 or its medieval fantasy epic Skyrim: Special Edition until Sony allowed for the studio "to offer proper mod support" for the console. However, it seems as if the Japanese tech corporation has finally given Bethesda the tools necessary in order to make the feature happen on its current generation system, as the company behind Fallout 4 and Skyrim has now announced that both of the games will eventually get mod support on PS4.
According to an official blog post from Bethesda, not only will Skyrim: Special Edition and Fallout 4 be able to have mods on the PS4, but also developers plan on supporting the new PlayStation 4 Pro with both titles, rendering the releases in native 4K. These features are to be included with Skyrim: Special Edition when it arrives on October 28, with Fallout 4 to follow once "work is complete on Skyrim."
While the news ought to be exciting for PlayStation 4 fans who have wanted mods on the console so as to tinker around with Skyrim and Fallout 4, it's important to note that players won't be able to upload external assets with the PS4 mods. With this being the case, fans "will be able to use any assets that come with the game, as most mods do."
For those unaware, Bethesda has had somewhat of an uphill struggle when it comes to getting Fallout 4 mods ready for current generation consoles, but making the feature work for PlayStation 4 has been far more troublesome than on the Xbox One. Beyond a disappointing size limit, mods for the post-apocalyptic RPG on the Microsoft system have had relatively few hangups. As far as Sony's console is concerned, though, during the initial stages of developing mods for PS4, Bethesda came across loads of issues related to memory, performance, and audio, leading to numerous delays.
At any rate, with Bethesda finally able to confirm that PS4 mods are now on the way for both Fallout 4 and Skyrim: Special Edition, fans on the platform will undoubtedly be grateful to the studio for working diligently on the task in order to see it through. Now, perhaps the developer can focus even more intently on the two new and unannounced games it has in the works.
Fallout 4 is available now for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, while Skyrim: Special Edition is set to release on October 28, 2016 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Oil & gas investments can be a complicated thing to figure out. And because of this, investors typically fall into two categories. Either they have enough money to hire someone to make sense of their data for them – or they want to hold onto the money coming in as long as they can, so they use Excel spreadsheets to figure out their share – spending hours crafting the perfect formula, just to still be confused about what their formula really means to their bottom line.
We get this. We saw a gap in the market for a system to help investors after spending more than 20 years helping operators and accountants keep track of the distributions they send to investors. So after hearing the feedback from our client's investors, we understood that having to track revenue and expenses on their own down to the tenth percentage point or more is tedious.
You shouldn't need to spend hours or have a degree in finance or accounting to track your investments. So what Well Profits does is make the process as simple as possible by automating the calculations and giving you reports that give you the insight you're looking for all along.
With Well Profits software, you will:
1. Track income and costs in one location.
2. Easily make sense of your data or your client's data because the software handles all the computations to give you the bottom line in real time.
3. Expedite your year-end tax process by having all your data ready for your CPA.
How much is your data overload costing you? How accurate are your records for what your bottom line is with these investments? How much work is it going to take to get the tax-documents ready for your CPA this year? A lack of a simple system to track all this data may be costing you a great deal.
See for yourself what our software can do for your investments. Why? Because muddling through all the data won't get any easier until you make a change.

FE News reporter caught up with one of our Engineering Lecturers who attended the recent UCU Cradle to the Grave Conference.

FE News reporter caught up with one of our Engineering Lecturers who attended the recent UCU Cradle to the Grave Conference.
Read about it here:
You can see highlights from the conference here:
Bradford College UCU took up our placards once again. We took part in the national strike action to demand a pay rise and proper investment in FE.
Thank you for your support. We had solid picket lines and know the vast majority of lecturers did not go into the college.
Our workload is comparable to that of school teachers but our rates of pay are not.
We also had messages of support our colleagues at Bradford University and members of Unite and the IWW supported us on the picket line.
You may be aware that a demonstration at the Tory Party Conference has been called. See the details here: https://www.tuc.org.uk/events/national-demonstration-conservative-party-conference
The national demonstration is on Sunday 4th October with events going on during the week, people can stay over if you have the time!
Anyone in the Bradford area get in touch with Barry 07971038779. They have train tickets available.
Anyone in Leeds or Wakefield, there are free coaches:
In other areas including Barnsley and Calderdale, please see the People's Assembly site: http://www.thepeoplesassembly.org.uk/transport_to_manchester
UCU are supporting this demonstration to highlight the cuts to education. Please see the flyer attached.
Welcome members, prospective members and public,
We set up this site to keep members informed on the Defend Education at Bradford College campaign. That campaign has been a success. In May, we were all put under threat of redundancy and so far there have been no compulsory redundancies. We did have to say good bye to colleagues taking VR and we wish them well in their lives outside the College. However, there is still the unresolved situation in ESOL with 9 FTE still under threat. So, there's still more to do.
The government are clearly showing full disregard for FE and adult education. They are continuing to chip away at our funding streams. We must continue to pull together and keep the Defend Education campaign going.
Below you can read and see pictures of our activities over the last academic term and we intend to keep this up-to-date with current events and matters of interest.
If you are a lecturer at Bradford College, and you're not a member of UCU, we urge you to join.
If you are a member, please help us and make sure everyone in your area is a member.
This week, our branch secretary, Geraint Evans, was invited to speak to Bradford Community Broadcasting Radio during the Drive Time slot. You can hear him talking about the importance of ESOL at Bradford College here:http://www.podcast.canstream.co.uk/bcb/index.php?cat=Drive%20. Click on Drive Time and look for Thursday, 24th September, he's half way through 5 to 6 podcast.
Many thanks from the Action for ESOL team.
You can also support us by downloading and adapting this letter to council %28v4 ucu.
Please adapt it and send it to your councillors and MP. The more pressure they get from different places the better.
As we were going off on our summer leave after a tough year, there came the announcement that the government were going to make a further 3.9% to the Adult Skills Budget (on top of the 24% cut already announced) and total withdrawal to funding the to JCP ESOL Mandation courses. At Bradford College, these courses represent 1/3 of the work carried out by ESOL Bradford lecturers.
So, when we thought it was safe to go on holiday, ESOL staff are now back in a redundancy pool.
Action for ESOL are taking steps to try to campaign against these really damaging cuts. Please see the http://actionforesol.org/
Locally, there is a splinter group Action for ESOL Yorkshire that is trying to co-ordinate action we can take across the region since this is going to hit all colleges.
The principal of Kirklees College has come out against the cuts: https://www.tes.co.uk/news/further-education/breaking-views/dear-mr-cameron-college-principal-warns-pm-danger-posed-esol
We are calling on the new principal of Bradford College to do the same and support Action for ESOL.
We are also inviting you to continue to help us campaign to protect the quality and provision of ESOL and adult education.
One suggestion to fill the gap left by proper investment is that volunteers and neighbours can help teach ESOL: https://www.tes.co.uk/news/further-education/breaking-views/opinion-how-ease-pressure-a-creaking-esol-system.
So, what can you do?
If you are an ESOL lecturer, continue having your summer break but don't forget that your union is here to support you. The contacts in the previous post still apply.
When you come back, be ready to continue the fight for quality jobs and education in FE.
In solidarity,
Defend Education at Bradford College
This donation is very much welcome.
As we start the summer holidays 17 posts are still in danger of compulsory redundancy.
We will need to carry on our campaign and be prepared to take action in September.
If you are in a pool remember that:
Union Officers will also be taking holiday but if you need support contact in the first instance:
Now until the 25th July Geraint Evans and Debbie Rolls
From the 25th July – 1st September Chris Webb and Debbie Rolls
There may be times when we all are unavailable.
If you need Union support in and we are not available please contact the UCU Regional Office in Leeds at email@example.com or on 0113 200 2940
We hope you all manage to spend some time relaxing and enjoying yourselves over the summer, don't let them grind you down.

1800 Tequila "Essential Artists" Campaign
I was featured as part of 1800 Tequila's "Essential Artists" campaign in Summer/Fall of 2008. The advertising campaign spotlighted artists in different cities and featured their work in and around those markets.There were nine artists in the series and placements included outdoor advertising, national print campaign, web advertising, and custom items such as bottles and sneakers. One of the unique aspects to the Essential Artists series was the importance that they gave to the artist's biography. Every billboard had our names and city printed on it and the custom bottles had brief biographies on the side.

The anthropologist Oscar Lewis first used the term "culture of poverty" in a 1959 article on Mexico. Within months, the idea that the poor had a distinct culture became part of a passionate, decade-long, worldwide debate about poverty. Scholars, policy makers, and broader publics discussed what caused poverty and how to remedy it. How entrenched were the class and racial differences that led to poverty? How did those differences affect a country's standing in the community of nations? This article tracks the concept of a culture of poverty as a way of probing the reciprocal, if unequal, connections between Mexico and the United States and their relation to national narratives and policy debates. It tracks how Lewis's formulation of a culture of poverty drew on his training as an anthropologist in the United States, his extensive dialogue with Mexican intellectuals, and his fieldwork in Mexico. It also shows how Lewis and others reformulated the notion in response to intense public controversies in Mexico and Puerto Rico; the vehement U.S. discussions surrounding the War on Poverty and Daniel Patrick Moynihan's report on the Negro family, and larger events such as the Cuban Revolution, the U.S. civil rights movement, decolonization, the Vietnam War, and second-wave feminism.

Considered to be the most beautiful house in England, the history of Brympton starts in the 13th Century when the land was purchased by the D'Evercy family. The house is set in 33 acres of stunning parkland with a magnificent lake that perfectly mirrors the South Front – all in a stunning backdrop for your very special day.
Say your vows in a stunning medieval manor house, sip Champagne on an elegant terrace and dine in Elizabethan grandeur. At Brympton House in Somerset, your wedding will be unique and unforgettable.
This great house with its exquisite Tudor front stands majestically amongst 33 acres of parkland. Couples are invited to enjoy exclusive use on their wedding day, experiencing all that a Brympton wedding has to offer – a breathtaking setting and exquisite dining experience.
At Brympton House, couples can choose to tie the knot in either the beautiful Castle House, or outside on the South Terrace, enjoying views over the lake. Following a civil ceremony, drinks receptions take place in the imposing Elizabethan Great Hall beside a roaring fire, or on the terrace and lawn in the summer. Depending on your chosen wedding style and number of guests, three inside spaces are available for the wedding breakfast, from the majestic light-filled Ballroom, to the more intimate State Dining Room with its red silk-lined walls.
The Stables have been converted in to a perfectly designed evening function area with chill-out room, dance floor area and bar – just the place to party the night away. As the sun goes down, serve a feast to your guests, perhaps a hog-roast or giant paella on the courtyard as they watch fireworks overhead. It's the dream finale to your most special day.
Take a look through the gallery folks… It's delicious!

If your spouse and family members accompany you to Bielefeld, they also have to go through a set of formalities, such as applying for a visa. Please take care of a visa for your family as early as possible.
German migration and residence laws grant international scholars the fundamental right to bring their marriage partners and unmarried minors with them or to send for them to join them after arrival in Germany. However, if you are a citizen of a country that does not belong to the EU or the EEA, you must provide proof that there is sufficient living space for them in Germany, and that the family is financially self-sufficient. This generally requires written confirmation from the host university or institute in Germany.
For family members accompanying you, or intending to join you later, you will require
- for your husband or wife: your original marriage certificate with a certified German translation unless the original is an international document
- for your children: the original birth certificate with a certified German translation unless the original is an international document
- a copy of the letter confirming your scholarship or work contract
If the application is not made jointly, family members will also require a copy of the international scholar's passport, containing her or his valid residence permit.
If members of your family accompany you to Germany or join you later, they should bring certified translations of their marriage and birth certificates of confirmable authenticity. They will need these in order to convert visas into long-term residence permits in Germany.
Whether your spouse will be allowed to work in Germany depends on your own status.
If you get a regular visa and residence permit that enables you to work at Bielefeld University as academic staff (§18), it will be rather difficult if not totally impossible for your spouse to work in Germany unless s/he finds a job in academia as well. Your spouse will not get an unlimited work permit, but has to present a specific job offer to the immigration office. For all jobs outside academia, there is a preference for German citizens which is checked with the Federal Labour Agency. Taking into account the current situation on the labour market, the probability not to find a German citizen willing to take this job is extremely low. However, after three years in Germany your spouse will be able to apply for an unlimited work permit.
If you get a visa or residence permit for the purpose of research (§20) and you have a hosting agreement with Bielefeld University, the situation is significantly better for your spouse. S/he will not receive an unlimited work permit, but the preference for German citizens is no longer effective. That means that when presenting a concrete job offer at the immigration office, your spouse will most likely receive a work permit for the particular job. Please approach the International Office to inquire whether you fulfill the conditions to conclude a hosting agreement as a "researcher" with Bielefeld University.
If you are recognised as a highly skilled person (please note that not all scholars are recognised as such) and will thus hold a permanent residence permit (§19), your spouse will have unlimited access to the German labour market.
In all cases, it is important that your spouse mentions his/her wish to work during the visa application process.
You can obtain up-to-date and detailed information on this from the Employment Office (Agentur für Arbeit), the Foreigners' Registration Office (Ausländerbehörde) at your place of residence in Germany, and under:

Piaggio to Make Hybrid Three-Wheeled Scooters
Piaggio, the company best known for making Vespas, is planning to produce some hybrid models, of both two- and three-wheeled models.
Perhaps the coolest model is the soon-to-be-hybridized MP3, a three-wheeler whose front wheels tilt and move independently, hugging the road. These wheels also mean you can park on steeply uneven ground.
The hybrid versions will get up to 170 miles per gallon, and can be driven around 20k in exclusively electric mode. As with all hybrids, the battery captures energy used in braking, making the vehicle that much more efficient. The batteries can also be charged at home before going out, and the rider can manually switch from gas to electric power.
A battery monitor on the dashboard monitors charge, and the scooter can also monitor and optimize use on its own.
And with many US cities becoming more bike-friendly, maybe scooters will become more popular around here...

Financial institution foreclosures lists present a potential buyer with data on foreclosed properties which might be up on the market. The first two steps in shopping for a foreclosures ought to happen virtually simultaneously: Find a actual-estate dealer who works directly with banks that personal foreclosed homes and get a preapproval from a lender.

Burned bridge in Dallas to be demolished, rebuilt
A bridge in southeast Dallas that was awash in flames Sunday after a tanker truck exploded will be demolished and rebuilt, highway department officials said.
Meanwhile, traffic will be detoured around the area during the repair work, said Kelli Petras, spokeswoman for the Texas Department of Transportation office in Dallas.
"TxDOT will have a definitive answer later this week as to how long this project will take to complete," Petras said.
The bridge spans Texas 310 at its intersection with U.S. 175. The fuel truck hit a concrete barrier at 4:55 p.m. Sunday on eastbound U.S. 175.
The rig flipped and exploded beneath the Texas 310 overpass.
The driver escaped, but traffic in the area was throttled Monday during damage assessments by TxDOT engineers.
They inspected the damage and evaluated core samples before deciding that two spans of both the southbound and northbound portions of the bridge overpass must be replaced, Petras said.

Written By Brett Levine
Photography by Beau Gustafson
For artist Patty B. Driscoll, finding her way to realist painting wasn't the easiest path. "I actually started art, in part, through studying with Anne Arrasmith at 21st Street Studios when I was young," she explains. "Even then, Anne was a mentor who encouraged me to express myself creatively—and who helped me fall in love with Birmingham."
That aspiration led Driscoll to Skidmore College, then to the California College of the Arts just as it found itself at the height of conceptualism. "I never really felt any expressive limits until I first found myself in college," Driscoll begins, "and by the time I found myself working in the textiles department at CCA I was testing the limits of what it meant to be a painter—literally wondering what it actually meant to paint."
All these questions led Driscoll to put down her palette and head in an entirely different direction: to culinary school, where she developed an incredible mastery for cake decorating. "I decided to go to the Culinary Academy in San Francisco," she laughs, but the results were no laughing matter. Four- and five-tier creations embellished with hand-laid designs that perfectly mirrored hand-stitched lace were simply part of a day's work. "I suppose you could say I like digging in to the details. I usually think of myself as being a pretty loose thinker, but when it comes to creating, and making art, I'm incredibly controlled."
Controlled she is. Her light-filled studio brims with studies in distinct states of creation. Simply understanding how she creates her current work—we'll get there in a moment—is an exercise in restraint.
She had basically stopped putting brush to surface until she had an opportunity to take a painting class with renowned artist Mark Carder. Best known for having painted portraits of presidents, Carder's still life works are sublime. "I'd basically spent most of my painting career thinking about the idea of making work—literally weaving paintings, for example—and when I went to learn from Mark it took me to a different kind of thematic place." This place was one where composition was crucial, and where the ability to represent meant taking the variables out of the equation. "I wear black when I paint now," Driscoll smiles, "so I don't reflect in the composition. I focus a really narrow gaze on little moments of family, of legacy, and of passing things on." But within all this, she recognizes the larger, more universal issues. "I think one of the great gifts of still life as a genre can be capturing a moment much like you're catching a butterfly."
Even more important is how engaged Driscoll is with the actual practice of painting, and how it meshes with larger issues of concern. "I love the fact that historically still life painting was considered a 'low' style of painting. It was one of the few studio practices women could have. So when I do a work like Lydia's Purple," she says, gesturing to a delicate work depicting a silver vessel, foregrounded by a purple flower, "I can reference ideas of women's history, of family, and of experience at the same time."
What matters most in the end though is how incredibly skillfully Driscoll handles her media. Whether working in multiples making prints that explore the history of Bonwit-Teller, or meticulously painting small sections of a solitary work in her studio every single day, Driscoll proves that it is skill plus commitment that makes excellence emerge. A belief in her abilities, and a passion for expression, were at the beginning of the journey; a desire to examine ideas formed its center; and a commitment to achieving at the highest levels reflected its manifestations. The ability to continue to learn, and to develop, keeps her moving forward. And there, on small canvases, and in intimate prints, Driscoll makes magic emerge every single day.

USSR vs Yugoslavia - Men's Basketball Final
The stage was set. Yugoslavia had beaten Australia, while the USSR had won against the reigning champions team USA in the semi-finals. The two final teams had already met in their very first match in the 1988 Summer Games. In that Group B match, the Yugoslavian team had won by 92 – 79. But now the stakes were higher with the Seoul 1988 Olympic gold medal to be won. Yugoslavia, led by Moscow 1980 Olympic gold medalist Drazen Petrovic, had an impressive start getting to a 24 - 12 lead before the end of the first half. However, The USSR weren't going to give away the gold medal that easily and, by half-time, had taken the lead in to their hands with a 31 – 26 score. Back in the game and ahead in the scoreboard, the Soviet team kept its cool in the second half. With Sharunas Marchulionis and Arvydas Sabonis scoring over 20 points each, the USSR maintained a minimum 9 points lead until the final 76 – 63 score gave them their second Olympic gold medal.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Daclizumab HYP (Zinbryta) may have an advantage over interferon-beta-1a (Avonex) in terms of patient-centered functional outcomes in multiple sclerosis (MS), researchers reported here.
In a post-hoc analysis from the DECIDE trial, patients randomized to the investigational agent had greater improvements in a composite of functional endpoints than those on the older agent, Michael Kaufman, MD, of Carolinas Health Care, and colleagues reported at the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers meeting.
The DECIDE trial previously found that daclizumab HYP cut relapse rates and disability progression to a greater extent than interferon beta 1a. Kaufman said the investigators also wanted to assess patient-centered functional outcomes because maintaining functional ability -- particularly ambulation and cognition -- is important to MS patients.
For the post-hoc analysis, Kaufman and colleagues looked at data from the 1,841-patient trial that randomized relapsing-remitting patients to either drug. They assessed outcomes on the Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) test, which includes three standard MS ambulatory assessments -- the Timed 25-Foot Walk test (T25FW), the Nine-Hole Peg Test (9HP), and the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test-3 (PASAT-3). They also assessed cognitive function using the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT).
They found that over the 96-week study period, the median z-score change from baseline in the MSFC was significantly greater in the daclizumab HYP group (0.091 versus 0.055 for interferon beta 1a, P=0.0007).
Differences were also significant for each of the individual tests within the composite:
The authors also reported significantly greater improvements in cognition as measured by the SDMT (P=0.0274).
"Over 2 to 3 years, daclizumab HYP showed greater improvement than interferon-beta 1a in patient-centered measures of functional disability," Kaufman said. "This supports earlier findings that daclizumab HYP demonstrated superior efficacy to interferon beta-1a across key clinical and radiographic MS outcome measures. It has the potential to be a new therapeutic option for relapsing-remitting MS."
The HYP at the end of the drug's name stands for high yield process, which is intended to distinguish the drug from an earlier formulation sold as Zenapax. Biogen and AbbVie recently filed the biologics license application (BLA) for daclizumab HYP.
The study was supported by Biogen.
Kaufman disclosed relevant relationships with Biogen, Bayer, EMD Serono, Novartis, and Teva.

If you would like to leave a review for a bike shop or cycling organization not currently listed here, We'd be happy to list it. Leave your review below, making sure you mention the name and complete address and phone number of the bike shop and we'll create a listing for the business and add your review to the listing as soon as possible.
Would you be willing to put up a post for the bike shops in the Cleveland Area who would be willing to participate in a veterans fund-raising that involves pedaling one minute for each Ohio's fallen soldiers in the Middle East since 9/11?
The second annual event will be held on February 24, 2013 Sunday and teams are forming now. Each shop could challenge their friends to form a team in order to ride the full 5 hours (276 fallen soldiers as of today).
More info is available on the website PedalForHeroesUSA.org and the organization is a certified 501-C3 charity.
Thank you for considering this!!
The Bicycle Hub
7430 Mentor Ave
Mentor, Ohio 44060
Just want to give a shout out to The Bicycle Hub in Mentor, though the shop is relatively new to Cleveland it is the first cycling shop in my 10 years of living here that I feel truly comfortable in. Rob Ponti is a low pressure sales man who is really there to provide you with what you need. He loves working on bikes and it shows. Their shop goes above and beyond opening the shop up for free winter trainer rides and organizing many group events from the shop. I would highly recommend giving Rob your business whether it is for bike repair/maintenance, or bike/parts purchase.

Odds and Ends
Karl Giberson
Writer's Log: Stardate 26-1-12
Writing has so many small pleasures and today was full of them.
My day started by returning an op-ed to David Hicks, one of my writing students at Gordon College. He wrote a thoughtful piece about leadership that he is submitting to a contest run by the Washington Post. Gordon is, I believe, the only Christian college in the country invited to participate in the contest, thanks to the connections of the new president, Michael Lindsay. David's piece, which I edited just a bit for him, was an interesting speculation about the power of juxtaposing the resources and know-how of his father's generation, with the passion and idealism of his own.
Then Carolyn Meckbach, another of my students, sent me an animated email message about getting an op-ed accepted at her hometown newspaper. I had nothing to do with that but I love watching my students get excited about writing.
My day ended with an email from Dean Nelson, alerting me to some great comments that Scot McKnight made about our book Quantum Leap, on his popular blog, Jesus Creed.
Here is a snippet of his review:
"Last year when I was speaking at Point Loma in San Diego — an incredible campus — I spent a little time with Dean Nelson and he told me his book on John Polkinghorne was coming out. I had not read much Polkinghorne at the time, I had read about him, I had read snippets, and what Dean was describing was just the sort of book I was interested in reading. Dean and Karl Giberson have written just the book: Quantum Leap: How John Polkinghorne Found God in Science and Religion (Monarch, 2011). I really enjoyed this well-written, engaging book and commend it heartily to you if you care to probe science and faith through the lens of one person's life."
My thoughts did turn to Adam and Eve briefly today, while I was watching Misrepresentation tonight at Eastern Nazarene College. The most offensive part of that disturbing documentary about female images was a anti-feminist quote from Pat Robertson. It got me thinking about the role that Christianity plays in this complex and very serious social issue. Robertson is from the lunatic fringe of Christianity, of course, so I know he does not speak for many Christians. My intuition tells me that Christianity, on balance, is probably more a force for good in addressing the exploitation of women. The Christian West, for all its flaws, seems have done better historically than some other cultural traditions. But I am not sure, especially as we enter the third millennium.
Everyone should go see this film though.
