Bimal Arora, chairperson of the Centre for Responsible Business, at the conference on 'India and Sustainability Standards'
'Companies lack leaders who drive sustainability'
Civil Society News, New Delhi
Companies that choose voluntary compliance and report thoroughly on their own sustainability build trust among stakeholders. They also strengthen their internal processes and stand a better chance of being globally competitive. How do Indian companies fare? Do they see reporting on themselves as an opportunity or a mere formality? Is sustainability seen across the range of engagements with society? Or is it limited to a handful of factory floor practices? Is it wrongly confused with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)?
To find out, Civil Society spoke to Dr. Bimal Arora, chairperson of the Centre for Responsible Business (CRB). Dr. Arora has been interacting with Indian and global companies on questions of sustainability for more two decades. He has been a keen observer of corporate behaviour. In November, CRB organised a conference in New Delhi on 'India and Sustainability Standards' to encourage Indian companies to learn and introspect.
What is the state of reporting by companies in India. It is, after all, five years since the voluntary reporting guidelines were framed.
I would say reporting in India is growing. I know GRI (the Global Reporting Initiative) has been around for a while in India. We have the Carbon Disclosure Project. We have the Water Disclosure Project. We now have the BRR or Business Responsibility Reporting. So, the whole momentum around reporting has been growing the past five years or so.
But when you say growing, what exactly do you mean? What is the quality of the reporting?
It is getting serious in the leadership companies. The bigger ones like the Tatas and Birlas have been engaging with the reporting process. The way it works is that the initial five years is the learning phase. During this time a company is only ticking boxes and is not using reporting as a ...

Why Get Marriage Counseling?
For all couples who seek marriage counseling and on how to pick the right counselor, there are many different things that should be taken into mind in order to come up with the right decision. Definitely, you need to pick a marriage counselor who has had long years and successful marriage.
What I am saying is, are you seeing yourself working with one who is divorced, happily married, female or male counselor or with or without children? These are some of the important facts that must be taken into consideration when selecting a counselor who'll fix the issues in your marriage. Turning your trust to your counselor to the point that you will be comfortably honest and open with them is crucial. It is also important that they can take care of the issues that is causing breakdown in marriage like anger, sexual dissatisfaction, lack of communication, unemployment as well as infidelity.
The first thing that you should do is to seek advice from family or friends who've used the services of marriage counselor before when getting couples therapy. If ever they gave any recommendations of someone and that you trust them, then you might not have to look for a counselor yourself anymore. There are numerous counselors who do not have professional license or training, which is another thing that you'll have to consider when searching for one on your own.
Make it a point that you're with one who has licensed mental health professional. Be sure that they are accessible outside of session and that you can contact your counselor for any assistance if there is an emergency in your marriage or if you just need someone whom you can talk to. At the end of the day, these counselors are about marriage help and for this, it should be in their best interests to reach out to you.
In case that this is your first time visiting a relationship therapy, then it is a must to feel comfortable with them. In the event that either of you were satisfied after the first visit, then it will be wise to look for a different counselor who has the same considerations in mind in an effort to avoid wasting money and time.
In general, you may like have to spend roughly 100 dollars per session when undertaking couple's counseling. There are numerous couples who agree with the fact that relationship is not always good and that it'll take some work to succeed. This is basically something that your counselor needs to make their clients realize throughout the counseling.
It will be a wise move to hire a marriage counselor if you are having issues with your marriage.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of attending yet another Hudson Valley Click shootout event. The theme was "Sports and Fitness" and it was held at the YMCA in Middletown, NY.
In preparation for the shoot I did some image searching for inspiration. I decided this would be a great opportunity to pursue a type of images that I had been wanting to make for a while – black and white "near silhouette" images of dance/yoga poses. This is a theme I intend to continue working with, in appreciation of the beauty of the human form and the poses we can make.
My lighting was achieved with one flash bouncing off a mirror to the side and one flash backlighting the wall/model.
I worked principally with three models: Rajon Miller, Cheryl Crist and Elise Alexandria.

I only own two batteries, one a Traxxas 8.4v 3000 mAh Nimh that came with my Bandit, the other a Venom 9.6v 4200 mAh.
I normally charge the Traxxas at 3 amps and the Venom at 4.2 amps. I forgot that I had my charger set for 4.2 amps and charged the Traxxas at this rate. It took about 45 minutes to charge and both the battery and the charger got up to about 143°. I suspect this is pretty hot for a battery while charging. I was wondering why it seemed so hot and then I remembered that I had left it on 4.2 amps. I'm certain I've charged the 3000 mAh several times at this setting. As far as I can tell, the battery performs as it should.
I just charged my 7 Cell Traxxas Powercell series 5 5,000mAh battery on my Onyx 230 charger. The battery was not completely deal. I set it to charge at 5A and it ran about 4.95 max, charged for 60 minutes, put 4500mAh into the battery and my cells were around 115 degrees when done.
At the 50 minute mark, they were 89 Degrees
At the 52 minute mark, they were 90 Degrees
At the 54 minute mark, they were 94 Degrees
At the 56 minute mark, they were 96 Degrees
At the 58 minute mark they were 104 Degrees
At the 60 minute mark they were 115 Degrees

Thanks for the response pparks. As you can see, my post was from a year ago. Since then I've purchased a 11.1v lipo, so needless to say the NiMh really don't get used any more.
No problem. I figured I would post for anybody else who has the same question along the way.

Top 3 Reasons to Draw Up a Will Sooner Rather Than Later

But if you're under 40 and don't have a will, now is the time to do it! Don't put it off! Shockingly, over half of Americans who are between the ages of 55 to 64 don't have a will and generally speaking, almost 65% of Americans don't have a will. Having a will protects you and your assets from disputes that can get nasty after your death and ensures that the people, institutes, or organizations that you cared for during your life receive a monetary sum or assets. Being in touch with lawyers about your will is a good first step towards getting all your affairs in order.
What Does a Will Cover?
A will is a legal document usually drawn up by lawyers that has all your wishes on how your property and assets will be given out after your death and what will happen to any minors still under your care at the time o

Letter to Congress on the Prison Reform and Redemption Act
The narrow prison reform bill backed by the White House and being considered by Congress is an incomplete starting point for fixing our broken justice system, the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law said in this letter to Judiciary Committee leadership in Congress.
The Center joins 60 civil rights groups, including the Leadership Conference for Civil and Human Rights, ACLU, and NAACP Legal Defense Fund - who sent a similar letter - in our concerns about back-end only reforms that don't address how individuals get to prison in the first place.
While effective reentry and rehabilitation services are important, the Brennan Center emphasizes that "making such reforms a central legislative goal, rather than part of a comprehensive package that includes sentencing reform, unnecessarily limits the range of achievable reform at a key juncture" when there is bipartisan support for something more comprehensive. The letter urges committee leaders to continue efforts to pass the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act, which would reduce the number of federal prisoners and was close to passage last year.

Are you new to management? Learn how to create professional teams that work together to overcome workplace obstacles in our course, Team Building: How to Build High-Performing Teams in 1 Day.
Why is teamwork important?
In the age of social media and digital collaboration, being able to work as part of a team is more important than ever before. From improved productivity to a better work environment, fostering team spirit is essential for every healthy business.
There are numerous benefits to teamwork beyond improved productivity. From providing helpful feedback to each other to learning each other's roles, fostering your workforce's teamwork skills makes working together a breeze.
Visit a climbing wall
Are you managing a small team that needs to work as one unit? Climbing is one of the best ways to develop bonds between pairs. Since one person is responsible for managing another's ropes, your team members develop real trust for each other.
Most major cities have an indoor climbing wall, and the almost all climbing facilities are used to hosting corporate team building events. Physical activities where people need to work together to manage risks are fantastic for encouraging teamwork.
Besides, climbing is lots of fun! Instead of building trust through generic activities like office trust games, head to the climbing wall and encourage your team to work together and conquer their fears.
Afraid of heights? Other two-person activities where your team members compete against one another are great for fostering cooperation and healthy competition. If climbing feels too extreme, try orienteering or mountain biking instead.
Would you like more creative ideas for building a great team? Learn how you can use physical activities like rock climbing and orienteering to develop a great team spirit in our course, The Psychology of Team Development.
Play the identity game
Do you need a simple teamwork exercise to break the ice? Play the identity game and help your team members familiarize themselves with each other. You've seen this game before: it's all about guessing your secret identity.

Make the identity game a challenge by only using yes or no questions. Since it's all about talking to each other and working together to work out who you are, this is a great game for breaking the ice between team members that have only just met.
Want more fun social game ideas? From creative exercises to classic party games, learn six great games for building social bonds between team members with our blog post on the best team bonding games.
Play the honesty game
Here's another fun social game for helping your team members get to know each other. Divide your group into two teams and get each team to nominate a member each. The member's job is simple: tell an interesting fact about themselves, or just make one up!

Have a virtual coffee break
Is your team spread around the world? Encouraging teamwork between members of a virtual team can be challenging, especially when you're working from a variety of different time zones.
One of the best ways to create social links between your virtual team members is by having a virtual coffee break. Set aside a daily 15-20 minute break where you drink coffee together and discuss your goals, everyday life, and interests over Skype.

Do you need help managing an online team? Learn how to keep your team focused and motivated, no matter how many different time zones it's spread over, with our Managing and Influencing Virtual Teams course.

Instead of trying to fight Friday afternoon burnout, embrace it and make Friday the official office socialization day. Order pizzas to the office or host a potluck lunch and give your team members a chance to get to know each other.
Hosting a casual lunch rarely hurts productivity, and the improvement to teamwork it offers is more than worth it. The more time your team members spend with each other, the more productive and focused they'll be when it's time to collaborate.
Do you want a simple but effective framework for building a productive and focused workplace team? Learn the four stages of team building – as well as some excellent teamwork exercises – in our Team Building Training course.

Rihanna joined Sir Paul McCartney during his set at the second weekend of Desert Trip last night (October 15).
The festival, which is organised by the team behind Coachella and takes place at the same location in Indio, California, has been dubbed "Oldchella" because its line-up features some of rock's elders. Neil Young, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Who and Pink Floyd's Roger Waters complete the bill.
As The Desert Sun reports, fans claim the former Beatle joked "We finally found someone under 50" as the pop star joined him to perform 'FourFiveSeconds'. Watch footage from the performance below.
#Rihanna comes out to sing her hit w #PaulMcCartney, "FourFiveSeconds." Macca says "We finally found someone under 50" #deserttrip @mydesert

Neil Young joined McCartney on stage again, helping him perform 'A Day In The Life' and Plastic Ono Band's 'Give Peace A Chance' for the second week in a row.
Earlier in the week (October 13), the Beatle played a tiny surprise gig for just 300 lucky fans.
The musician announced his impromptu performance at Pappy & Harriet's, a small roadhouse venue in Pioneertown near to the California festival's site, at 10am on the day. Tickets, priced at $50 (£40) each, were made available on a first come, first served basis.
McCartney's 22-song set at Pappy & Harriet's included Beatles, Wings and solo songs spanning his entire career. "We loved rocking at the Roadhouse! Small surprise gig in the desert (Pioneertown)," he wrote as he shared a picture on Instagram.

text: Imagine if he didn't have Israel's back !! (ABC News) – Two reports today about Iran's nuclear program and the possibility of an Israeli military strike have analysts in Israel accusing the Obama administration leaking information to pressure Israel not to bomb Iran and for Iran to reach a compromise in upcoming nuclear talks. The first report in Foreign Policy quotes anonymous American officials saying that Israel has been given access to airbases by Iran's northern neighbor Azerbaijan from which Israel could launch air strikes or at least drones and search and rescue aircraft. The second report from Bloomberg, based on a leaked congressional report, said that Iran's nuclear facilities are so dispersed that it is "unclear what the ultimate effect of a strike would be…" A strike could delay Iran as little as six months, a former official told the researchers. "It seems like a big campaign to prevent Israel from attacking," analyst Yoel Guzansky at the Institute for National Security Studies told ABC News. "I think the [Obama] administration is really worried Jerusalem will attack and attack soon. They're trying hard to prevent it in so many ways." The Foreign Policy report by Mark Perry quotes an intelligence officer saying, "We're watching what Iran does closely…But we're now watching what Israel is doing in Azerbaijan. And we're not happy about it." If true, the deal with Azerbaijan "totally changes the whole picture," says Guzansky, making it far easier for Israel to strike faster and harder, rather than having to fly 2,200 miles to Iran and back over Iraqi airspace.

Published at Monday, August 12th, 2019 - 03:18:02 AM. Wedding Dresses. By Audwin Schulze.
Purple has a regal history, and gives a sense of luxury and elegance to a wedding dress. Use dark shades sparingly, however, to avoid overwhelming with such a strong tone. Lighter tones of purple are uplifting, and are often chosen by creative people.
The traditional white wedding is still the most popular wedding idea. Although the off whites are far more prevalent then they have been in the past, ivory, cream or apple white take the harshness of the traditional white dress and softens the contrast between tanned skin and make-up.

Duncan Bruce - New Glass Tapu
Straight from the fringes of the New Zealand free noise/drone/freak scene comes this baby - and boy it's gleaming in introspective wonder... every listen unlocking new perspectives, embellishing first impressions...
For track one footsteps the stairwell is haunted, the graffiti floating on a spaghetti western swell. A shadowy Dot Cotton sucks on a cigarette, her paper thin cheeks showing too much skeleton , the issued smoke curling like the spasms of mummified cats. Below you can hear the slow transit of metal callipers dragging on concrete.
Celestial Vengeance is a multicoloured echo tumble… a washing line of incident feed into a buckling sausage machine. New shapes fly before the ears, chaos wrapped - collapsing sax apparitions, brief guitar plumbs, dismembered piano(?) … drum fuck-ups that would make Alex Neilson proud, full of drumstick smears and galloping muffles interspersed with karmic pixie dust... the spectre of a sax slumps over the landscape, the drums run from under its ominous gloom. Later, the sticks play voodoo dolly with the squeal, as it belches its last, stumbling out concussed into a static tide, full of Guernica edges.
Sumatra I is all haunted music box tingle, becoming all prismic, soaked in a prevailing otherness that creeps under your consciousness in a very bad way… Songs for a forgotten deity that's back for revenge...
Glass Tapu is a sucked woodwind interlude marred in feedback scraping, like blowtorch winds scouring the inside of a grain silo, aglow with the vibrations of rivets.
Four#g - crippled Satie keys, multiple images of sound trickling through your ears, a glinting carousel of cold mirrors and stained glass shivers that letterpress themselves into memory.
Sumatra II – is an eerie lighted finger drone, breaking over the outlines of floating chairs. Itchy graphite edges licking the periphery as faces slowly fall out of focus. A birdcage spiral of twitching blurs trapped in the dusty miasma of doors endlessly closing to a muted classical refine, I swear I can hear glimpses of moan and gasp in there...
Salem's Loft is the sound of desolation, as ghostly echoes call from room corners, sax vapours mingle , the dolphonic shrieks stretching like a latex skirt over silky pinions... stifled percussion erupts as chloroseptic spray snakes over bare bones...
Untitled, the screeching of brakes in differing tones like multi-stranded scream, bleeding out like the spokes of some semi-transparent umbrella...
Plane of Martyrs a giddy map of shifting radio interference, mixed with motor etched tin, and sander graze n grind – all hyperactive and twitching... totally wired Borneo death pipes gouging away at your inner ear...
what a finish!

Bless Dot Cotton!
Thanks for the very kind words, below are the origins of the recordings on the final track (taken from Time magazine).
Terrorism Nightmare on Flight 422
Monday, Apr. 25, 1988 By JOHN GREENWALD
The ordeal had already lasted ten days when the door of Kuwait Airways Flight 422 swung open at Houari Boumedienne Airport in Algiers. Out stepped a frail- looking man, as a caravan of ambulances, police cars and fire trucks stood by below. After being led down the ramp by a doctor -- and a hooded gunman who quickly ran back inside -- Djuma Abdallah Shatti, a 55-year-old Kuwaiti, told of harsh conditions inside the blue-and-white Boeing 747. "Praise be to God, I am fine," said Shatti, who is diabetic, "but they had me tied up all the time, and I am tired. They are not good people. They beat me."
Any doubts about the brutal determination of Shatti's tormentors evaporated as the ordeal of Flight 422 stretched into its second week and gained distinction as the longest uninterrupted skyjacking ever.* After the airliner, en route from Bangkok to Kuwait, was seized on April 5 as it neared the Strait of Hormuz, it began a tortured 3,200-mile journey that took it from Mashhad in northeastern Iran to Larnaca, Cyprus, and finally to Algiers. Deadlines came and went as the skyjackers, having already killed two hostages, threatened the lives of the rest if Kuwait did not meet their demand to free 17 terrorists jailed there since 1983 for bombings of the U.S. and French embassies in Kuwait. Three of the 17 are under sentence of death; the others are serving terms of from two years to life. The hijackers still held about 30 of the 112 people originally aboard, three of them related to Kuwait's ruling family.
Events took a chilling turn on Saturday when the hijackers, frustrated by Kuwait's refusal to meet their demand, invited three reporters to the top of the gangway leading to the craft and demanded that Algeria "fill the airplane with fuel, and we will liquidate our account with Kuwait elsewhere. We don't want to have the massacre in a friendly country." Added the hooded gunman who addressed the reporters: "Kuwait has to know that we do not fear death."
The drama on Flight 422 triggered a political outcry across the Middle East. - Troubled that the skyjacking had once again placed Arabs in a bad light and, more important, diverted attention from the four-month-old Palestinian uprising in Arab territories occupied by Israel, the region's leaders rushed to condemn the action. Some Arab officials suspected Iran of being behind the takeover. The evidence was largely circumstantial: one hostage freed during the six-day stop at Larnaca reported that several gunmen joined the hijackers in Iran and brought aboard submachine guns, hand grenades and explosives.
In Kuwait the daily Al-Qabas said the incident was believed to have been masterminded by Imad Mughniyen, 36, a Lebanese who is both cousin and brother- in-law to one of the 17 jailed terrorists. Western intelligence agencies believe Mughniyen has led several attempts to free the prisoners. Among them: at least two other hijackings, including the seizure of TWA Flight 847 in 1985, during which U.S. Navy Diver Robert Stethem was beaten and shot to death. The kidnapers holding many of the more than 20 Western hostages in Lebanon, including nine Americans, have also made release of the prisoners in Kuwait their key demand. In Washington, Administration officials said hostages freed from Flight 422 indicated that Hassan Izz-al-Din, one of four men indicted by a federal grand jury for Stethem's slaying, might be on the Kuwaiti plane.
The hijackers and the 17 prisoners appear to share religious ties. Sixteen of the men jailed in Kuwait are Shi'ite Muslims who are thought to support Iran and its leader, the Ayatullah Ruhollah Khomeini. Hostages released from the jetliner said the gunmen often spoke in religious terms. Sherif Mahrojk Badrawi, a Kuwait Airways ticket agent in Cairo, called them "good Muslims" who "spoke to us in a very Koranic language. They were always using verses from the Koran." The hijackers are thought to belong to Hizballah, a radical Shi'ite group.
The skyjacking had its bizarre moments. To emphasize their willingness to die for their cause, the hijackers told the Larnaca tower at one point that they had donned death shrouds and renamed the jetliner the "Plane of the Great Martyrs." When a controller referred to the craft as "Kuwait 422," a hijacker snapped back, "No! Plane of Martyrs!" Replied the tower: "Sorry, Plane of Martyrs." As the hostages sweltered inside their metal prison, planeloads of European vacationers came and went at the Larnaca field, wind surfers skittered across the sea next to the runway, and curious Cypriot families wandered among the journalists clustered along the airport road.
Senior Airport Controller Andreas Georgiades was impressed by the gunmen's poise. "They were very calm, very cool," he said. "Other hijackers I have dealt with were angry and shouted. But you wouldn't believe these latest ones would kill someone in cold blood." Kill they did, however. Two passengers -- Abdullah Khalidi, 25, and Khalid Ayoub Bandar, 20, both Kuwaitis -- were shot to death and dumped on the tarmac.
Authorities at Larnaca Airport initially refused to refuel the jetliner. But after the two hostages were killed and Algeria offered to take the plane, they relented and filled its tanks, allowing the aircraft to leave for Algiers. The standoff continued in Algeria, which helped negotiate the release of 52 American hostages from Iran in 1981. Algerian officials opened talks with the hijackers the day the plane landed. At one point, the jetliner was asked to taxi away from the airport terminal as a security measure while a plane carrying Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda landed. After the African leader departed, Flight 422 moved back to its old spot. Algerian sources blamed Kuwait's "intransigent" refusal to discuss the 17 jailed terrorists for the lack of progress in the talks. But Kuwait, which sent a delegation headed by Sa'ud Mohammed al-Usaymi, the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, insisted the radicals would not be released.
To heighten the pressure, the hijackers put several hostages on the radio to plead for a resolution of the crisis. One, who identified himself as Mohammed Ahmed al-Hajemi, declared in a strained voice, "I greet my family, and I ask the Kuwaiti authorities to free the prisoners. Otherwise the kidnapers will kill us." Throughout, the skyjackers defended their actions. "We are men of principle, not highway bandits," one asserted. "We would have preferred not to use such methods, but we have no choice. We repeat our demand for the liberation of our 17 brothers, and we will not go back on that even if the price is very high."
All signs indicated that the hostages were already paying dearly. An Algerian doctor permitted to go aboard described the passengers as tired but in "satisfactory" condition; some of those who were released said they had been manacled and herded into the front rows of the jumbo jet and had not been permitted to read or speak. Plastic bindings had cut deep into their wrists. Toilets became so fouled that some hostages were sickened; Algiers airport workers were finally allowed to clean up. Ramadan Ali, an engineer who holds dual Egyptian and American citizenship and who was one of the twelve hostages released in Larnaca, told of hiding his U.S. passport in a briefcase. He said a hijacker saw his U.S. driver's license but evidently did not know what it was.
In Kuwait more than 2,000 people attended a funeral for the two men slain aboard the jet. Though many of the mourners called for revenge, Sheik Jaber al-Ahmad as-Sabah, Kuwait's ruler, was not likely to order the execution of any of the 17 imprisoned terrorists. That might incite the country's Shi'ite minority, which constitutes about 30% of the population. The Kuwaitis view the hijacking as part of their continuing struggle with Iran, which has sought to destabilize their country in an effort to punish it for supporting Iraq in the gulf war.
The taking of Flight 422 exacerbated tensions throughout the Middle East. Syria, which has backed Iran in the gulf conflict, apparently infuriated Tehran by refusing to let the hijacked jetliner land in Damascus after it left Mashhad; at the same time, the skyjacking deepened the split between Iran and the P.L.O. The incident seemed somehow familiar: after the TWA hijacking in 1985, Thomas Cullins, one of the American hostages, noted that "we're pawns in an incredibly complex political and religious movement." The pawns were different last week, but the game had not changed.

Over at The Publishers Weekly they are playing a game of guessing which books fictional characters might buy (and read) if they were browsing today's book stores. The Guardian too points to the PW piece while speculating on what Huck Finn and Becky Sharp would buy and feels that Sherlock Holmes "would have got on well with a good Agatha Christie." Read both the posts as well as the comments.
You think a Harry Potter would have enjoyed reading a Percy Jackson? Percy Jackson, if he could manage his dyslexia and ADHD, probably wouldn't mind reading Samit Basu's Gameworld Trilogy. Basu's Silver Dagger would have enjoyed the intrigue at the Farseer Court but would have thought of poorly of Robin Hobb's assassin — FitzChivalry Farseer. Fitz ain't cool and smooth enough for the Silver Dagger. But one can imagine Le Guin's archmage Ged appreciate the detailing of Robin Hobb's world.
It is a fun game. What books would your favorite fictional characters read?

Subscribe To Palin Divorce: Britta Gets The Kid, Track Gets The Guns Updates
I've already subscribed
Track Palin, the son of former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, and his wife of less than two years, Britta, have decided to go their separate ways. Luckily, in the spirit of good ole Alaskan harmony and goodwill, they've already agreed on how they'll split up their possessions and how they'll take care of their daughter Kyla.
According to TMZ, Track will walk away with the couple's $30,000 savings account, $500 in tools and $1000 worth of guns. Britta, on the other hand, will get the $2500 checking account and $4000 in jewelry. As far as Kyla goes, she'll live with her mom moving forward, and they'll receive almost $650 a month in child support, though both parents will share legal custody in the eyes of the law.
This might sound like a huge victory for Track, but it's very likely the $30,000 in the savings account is money given to the couple by his family. Since they weren't even married two years, it's understandable that cash wouldn't get split up. Plus, $650 a month in child support goes a lot further in Alaska than it does in many other states in the Union.
A few years back when Sarah's daughter Bristol split up with her fiancé and baby daddy Levi Johnston, it got really ugly in a hurry. It's nice to see this break-up doesn't seem to be going down that poisonous route. Kyla deserves a mom and a dad interested in co-parenting. Here's to hoping that's what she gets.

You'll also be able to get your hands on Xperia Z4 Tablet Metal Gear Solid V Edition or the Xperia Z3 Compact Metal Gear slate. And with the release date set for September, you won't have to wait long to get your hands on them.
This week, Action Cam travelled to The Great North, to capture the beauty of a place that is always frozen. Inspired by the unique relationship that the Inuit people have with their land and their community, Action cam gives us an insight into a way of life on the Baffin islands, Canada. A way of life completely different to anything you will have ever experienced. Action Cams were mounted on a variety of objects and places, from dog sleds to snowmobiles. The camera puts you right at the heart of the team's breath-taking journey. You can watch the video here .
That's all from us, have an excellent weekend.

Published at Sunday, December 31st, 2017 - 07:27:17 AM. Bedding. By Darcel Leroux.
Drift is another great design which features a graphic of a dandelion head against the tan or cocoa background. The Amenity Leaf design places large leaves on the solid background colors. The pillow shams for each of these selections are solid in the same color as the background of the duvet. Very modern in appearance, these bedding choices make the modern bedroom's focal point the bed. This gives a clean, uncluttered look to the bedroom by focusing attention on the bedding with these bold, modern looks.
Platform beds and waterbeds lend themselves perfectly to modern choices in bedding. If you select a two-color geometric for your bedding, choose modern accessories in those same colors, but also add a few carefully selected accents in another bold, bright color.

"Ordinary Street, needs more green"
Bruce street is located near Ocean Avenue and Balboa Park. It intersects Harold and Niagara Avenue. This street consists only of houses, these houses are about two stories high and basically have the same style and structure.This street could be cleaner, there are a few oil stains on the ground and the outside of the a few houses look like they need a cleaning. This street needs more green, such as flowers, trees, or shrubs to brighten up the atmosphere on the street and liven it up. This street is about a block away from Ocean Avenue, which has many transportation devices so transportation is not a hassle.

Brits continue winning streak in Mijas
Lauren Edwards managed to pick up at the Costa del Sol Equestrian Tour in Mijas exactly where she left off yesterday – leading the field. Young horse Breit Star provided the 22 year old with another victory on day two of the tour.
Breit Star is offspring of Breitling LS, though seemingly has nothing to do with the dressage horse sire, but rather with the licensed stallion who achieved sporting success with US rider Elisabeth Madden and Dutchman Sjaak Sleijderink. Lauren Edwards is in any case thoroughly satisfied with her Breitling offspring. With temperatures of 14 degrees Celsius and predominantly sunny weather, riders and horses are enjoying riding outside in Mijas, and the race track is proving extremely popular. The chance to let the horses have a good gallop, completely at ease, has gone down well with both the two and four-legged guests.
Hot on the heels of all the riders arriving from across Europe and further afield, artist Jürgen Nobert Fux from Austria has also touched down in Mijas, where he will open a private viewing on Thursday at the Costa del Sol Equestrian Tour. Fux combines his passion for portrait photography with special materials. The interaction between complex and perfect photography and the carrier mediums of glass, furs or cow hide breaks with classical representations of figures. Fux has been a guest in Spain many times, and exhibits worldwide, for example in Los Angeles in 2014 with the ARTenschutz art project or at ART Monaco.

FLY FISHERMAN Loveland, CO
My name is Caleb Van Wagner, I am 32 years of age. I have been fly fishing and tying for roughly 20 years. I am a native to Colorado, having grown up in a rural setting; the outdoors played a central role in the forging of my fly fishing passion. I began to fly fish and tie flies at roughly the same time after a family reunion in the flat tops region. I was mesmerized by the dance between the anglers and that amazing loop that followed his every move. And that was just casting, after the minute dry fly gently fluttered down to the water's surface a slight twitch enticed an eager cutthroat to strike. With a bubbling whirl the mosquito disappeared below the emerald surface of the water. In this brief moment my love, and later in life, my obsession, for fly fishing and tying was galvanized.
Music is communication exemplified, there's nothing that unifies people better and more effectively than music. Music is fundamental in everyday life, from my music line up in my truck to the hours of casting practice. Not many things have the power to truly inspire people and ground them in a moment like music.
Fly fishing has taken me from fresh water to salt, mountains to deserts. All across the US and into other country's just to catch a fish only to release alive and well. Most importantly it has escorted me through the many ups and downs life throws at you. Like a silent witness to the journey that is me.

C++ 11 is truly beautiful. And one of the ways in which it is beautiful is how you can implement a compile-time and runtime-safe version of the popular C runtime function printf.
Originally, printf was implemented as a variadic function that parses its first argument (a format string) to determine how many additional arguments it should read from the stack. printf has no way of knowing how many parameters were actually provided; any mismatch means a nasty exception at runtime, or, worse, undesired output. For example:
printf("%d"); printf("%s"); printf("%d %d", 42); printf("hmpf", 42);
The first version will probably work and print some arbitrary stack value that happens to be after the format string parameter. The second version will probably crash because it tries to interpret that arbitrary stack value as a pointer to a string, which it is unlikely to be. The third version will probably print 42 followed by some stack garbage. And finally, the fourth version will probably print "hmpf", ignoring its argument completely.
But that's not all. printf doesn't know the types of the arguments — it relies on the format string to determine what they are. This can lead to undesired results again. For example:
printf("%d", static_cast<unsigned long long>(-1)); printf("%f", 39812); printf("%s", std::string("hello")); printf("%s", 42);
In this case, the first version will probably print the lower or upper half (32 bits) of the 64-bit value provided. The second version will print something which barely resembles 39,812 (I've just checked and my clang 3.5 prints 0.000000). The third version might actually work (!) if std::string has a pointer to the string as its first field, but otherwise it would fail spectacularly. And finally, the fourth version will try to interpret the number 42 as a pointer to a string, which will likely crash.
Now that we're all agreed printf is a horrible function, let's see if we can make it any better. First, C++ 11 has variadic templates, so we can build a template function that takes an arbitrary number of arguments without losing type safety, and while still keeping track of how many arguments were provided! For example:
template <typename... Types> unsigned count_args(Types&&...) { return sizeof...(Types); }
This function clearly knows how many arguments were provided. Plus, because it is a template, the arguments aren't coerced to arbitrary stack locations — we can preserve their type. Let's see how we can make use of this feature to safely print a list of arguments provided by the user. Our API is going to be the following:
safe_printf("x = %\n", x);
For the sake of sticking to convention, I am going to use '%' as the format specifier. The '%' indicator can be escaped by putting two of them in a row: safe_printf("You scored % %% on the test", 100) prints "You scored 100 % on the test". Now, to actually print the arguments we are going to use the standard variadic template trick — the function takes the head argument explicitly and the rest of the parameter pack is a tail that is forwarded to a "recursive" invocation. (I'm putting "recursive" in quotes here because, strictly speaking, we are calling a different instantiation of the same function template; so it's not really recursion because a function isn't calling itself.) Here goes:
constexpr char FORMAT_SPECIFIER = '%'; unsigned count_format_specifiers(std::string const& format) { unsigned count = 0; for (size_t i = 0; i < format.size(); ++i) { if (format[i] == FORMAT_SPECIFIER) { if ((i != format.size() - 1) && (format[i+1] == FORMAT_SPECIFIER)) ++i; // skip next % as well, it was consumed by this one else ++count; } } return count; } void safe_printf(std::string const& format) { if (count_format_specifiers(format) != 0) throw std::invalid_argument("number of arguments doesn't match the format string"); std::cout << format; // TODO: take care of escaped format specifiers } template <typename Head, typename... Tail> void safe_printf(std::string const& format, Head&& head, Tail&&... tail) { if (count_format_specifiers(format) != sizeof...(Tail) + 1) throw std::invalid_argument("number of arguments doesn't match the format string"); // TODO: take care of escaped format specifiers auto first_format_pos = format.find_first_of(FORMAT_SPECIFIER); std::cout << format.substr(0, first_format_pos); std::cout << head; safe_printf(format.substr(first_format_pos+1), std::forward<Tail>(tail)...); }
OK, so we have a base case that isn't even a template. It simply takes a string and prints it out, given that it doesn't contain any leftover format specifiers. Next, the template version takes a head and a tail, prints the head, and forwards the rest of the arguments to the "recursive" invocation. We also verify that the number of format specifiers is exactly equal to the number of arguments provided (1 for head plus the size of the tail).
At this point, we have a functional version that does parameter checking at runtime. For example, the following calls will throw an exception:
safe_printf("%"); safe_printf("% %", 42); safe_printf("", 42);
But still, we're not providing any help at compile-time. Wouldn't it be awesome if we could generate a compile-time error if safe_printf was called with the wrong number of arguments? It requires compile-time string parsing, which sounds infeasible, but it actually is — with constexpr functions. Take a look at this:
struct constexpr_string { unsigned size_; char const* string_; template <unsigned N> constexpr constexpr_string(char const(&str)[N]) : size_(N), string_(str) { } };
This beautiful struct captures a compile-time string literal and stores it along with its size. The constructor treats the string literal as an array of characters, which lets it determine the size of the string. Armed with this tool, we can add a member function that counts the number of times a particular character (such as a format specifier!) appears in the string:
constexpr unsigned count_format_specifiers() const { unsigned count = 0; for (auto i = 0; i < size_; ++i) { if (string_[i] == FORMAT_SPECIFIER) { if ((i != size_ - 1) && (string_[i+1] == FORMAT_SPECIFIER)) ++i; // skip next % as well, it was consumed by this one else ++count; } } return count; }
Note that I'm relying on C++14, which allows variable declarations, loops, and mutable variables in constexpr functions. This function can be obviously rewritten using recursion and a single statement, but it would be a lot more complex to read.
Now that we have this tool, we need to somehow generate statements of the form:
static_assert(2 == constexpr_string("% %").count_format_specifiers(), "error");
This will make sure that the format string provided by the user has the right number of format specifiers. At compile-time. All we need is… variadic macros.
If you're thinking: Macros? In C++11? Yuck! — you're absolutely right. But I don't see a clean solution to this problem that doesn't involve a macro. And it's a relatively harmless one:
template <typename... Types> constexpr unsigned sizeof_args(Types&&...) { return sizeof...(Types); } #define SAFE_PRINTF(format, ...) \ static_assert(constexpr_string(format).count_format_specifiers() \ == sizeof_args(__VA_ARGS__), \ "number of arguments doesn't match the format string"); \ safe_printf(format, ##__VA_ARGS__);
Look at this beauty! SAFE_PRINTF takes a literal format string followed by an arbitrary number of arguments. That format string is forwarded to constexpr_string::count_format_specifiers, which returns the number of format specifiers in the string. The sizeof_args helper gives us the number of arguments provided by the user, as a compile-time value. To forward the arguments to sizeof_args and safe_printf, we use the C11 __VA_ARGS__ magic, which evaluates to a comma-separated list of the macro's parameters. Note that for the safe_printf call we use ##__VA_ARGS__, which is a non-standard extension that erases the leading comma if the macro argument list is empty.
The end result is that we get compile-time errors from invalid uses of SAFE_PRINTF. For example (error messages by clang 3.5):
SAFE_PRINTF("%", 17, 42); main.cpp:109:5: error: static_assert failed "number of arguments doesn't match the format string" SAFE_PRINTF("hello, %", 42, 17); <edited for brevity> 1 error generated.
I think this is a pretty incredible result. We can parse literal strings at compile-time and generate detailed errors when a format string doesn't match; and when passed a string that isn't a compile-time constant, we do runtime verification anyway. And we don't need any compiler magic or support — just a combination of variadic templates, constexpr functions, and variadic macros.

Taking A Limousine To The
Prom Is Your Best Bet
A high school prom is an epic event in a young
man or woman's life that is sure to be
remembered for a very long time. The prom is the
social apex of a junior or senior year, as
millions of young adults around the country
anxiously await the opportunity to show off
their best of clothing, hair style and dance
moves. For an exclusive and unforgettable prom
experience that boasts of class and style,
renting a limousine is the only way to go. Many
potential prom attendees save up their
allowances for months in advance, knowing that
prom is a time to go all-out and spare no
expense while packing as much fun as possible
into one magical evening. Our fleet of
limousines provides kids with a bevy of options,
from a sleek and traditional black model to a
massive and powerful all white stretch Hummer H2
that is guaranteed to garner the attention of
everyone within its path. Our fleet offers
spacious and vibrant accommodations that will
help to get the party started long before the
guests arrive at their destination.
We've collected hundreds of pictures of
prom-goers enjoying our modern and styling
limousines over the years and in every instance
the smiles are from ear to ear. Nothing kicks
off a memorable evening of carefree fun and
youthful exuberance like a ride that makes
everyone feel like a superstar. Guests that
arrive to a prom in a limousine are sure to be
the center of attention and admiration for the
rest of the attendees. It is a status symbol
that won't soon fade away for a person in their
Taking a date to the prom allows a teenager to
have a glimpse of grown-up life and its many
freedoms and responsibilities. No matter how
confident and expressive a young person is,
common sense and practicality prevents them from
wearing a shiny purple pimp suit with a wooden
cane to school, but many jump at the opportunity
to do so while attending the prom. Riding to the
prom in a limousine will allow couples to relax
and focus on having fun.
Renting a limousine for a prom can also provide
nervous parents with peace of mind in knowing
that a responsible adult will be chauffeuring
their kids around. Parents sometimes feel
compelled to toss the keys of their best
automobiles to their sons or daughter's on prom
night, but the high energy aura and sensory
overload of the evening is often a bad match for
an inexperienced driver looking to impress the
opposite sex. Hiring a limousine service can
eliminate many of the potential dangers that
await kids on their prom night.
Sensational prom
nights with Prom limo services
Watching my young sister get all excited about
her prom night took me back a few years when I
was a teenager. I was filled with a sense of
déjà vu as I remember my prom night, which had
been an extremely exciting eveningone that I
cannot stop thinking about, and had vivid
memories about. Since we had graduated, my
friends and I thought of living it up and make
our prom night the most eventful night of our
life. We even got together and hired the best
possible prom limo hire company in all of
Toronto. Its a known fact that for
transportation in and around Toronto, limousine
hiring is the choice of most people and for
events like the prom that happen only once in a
students life, nothing beats like showing up in
a prom limo.
As the days lead up to the prom night, the air
is filled with emotions and different
expectations. My friends and I began making
preparations long before the special day. We
even began saving money months before so that we
could turn up on the day in style. For us, prom
was not only about pink gowns and cool
hair-dosit was about having a memorable time
with friends and dancing the night away under
the glitter of hundreds of colourful lights, it
was about doing things that everyone would
remember for ever.
There were so many special arrangements and
preparations that we had planned for our prom
party, and top on our list was to hire luxury
transportation for traveling to the venue. We
decided to hire our limousine well in advance,
knowing that as it got closer to the date, it
would be harder to get the vehicle of our
choice. There were a large number of ground
transportation companies offering special prom
limo packages suiting different budgets. Being
students, we were looking for budget friendly
means of transportation. Limousine hire
companies offered special packages on hourly as
well as daily rates. They offered so many
services, including airport transfers, limo
sightseeing packages, corporate limo services,
all around the region including Milton,
Oakville, Burlington, Mississauga, Cambridge,
Guelph, Brampton and so many other cities.
Though the most economical option was to hire a
sedan, it was only good to accommodate a couple.
There were then the special prom limousines that
included pink cars, decorated with colourful
ribbons to give it a festive appearance. We were
however hoping to hire a chauffeur driven
stretch limousine, which could accommodate 5
couples. We had agreed to share the limo hiring
charges. As we were learning more about the prom
limo package from the friendly staff, a few of
my friends had walked in. Excited to learn that
we were hiring a stretch limo, they were keen to
join us as well. The officer then suggested that
we could hire a stretch SUV limo that could
easily seat 18 passengers, which meant nine
couples. We were so excited, the more the
merrier, the longer the limo, the cooler our
entry on the prom night. We had a choice of
hiring either a SUV stretch, Lincoln stretch,
Hummer H2 or an Escalade ESV. Everyone voted for
the SUV stretched limo, and that was what we
Our SUV limousine was not only longer and more
spacious than other limos but also came equipped
with some funky features and amenities. It
featured a fully stocked bar, large flat screen
TV, a privacy divider between chauffeur's and
passenger's compartment, hi-fi sound system,
laser mood lighting, marbled flooring, and so
much more. We chose a hot pink hummer stretch
limo, so bright that it would have put a
flamingo to shame.
When we arrived to the prom night in our limo,
we felt like the coolest group of friends on
earth. We were surely the talk of the town, when
we arrived at the party venue in style and class
in a chauffeured limousine. My friends and I
were all dressed in the loveliest of shimmery
gowns. Our dates were looking dapper in their
sharp tuxedos. The only thing which I realised
we had forgotten to bring along was a bottle of
champagne. But then we realised that there was
no reason to panicour limo was equipped with a
bar that had the champagne. The party went on
all night until next morning. And the highlight
was me being crowned the prom queen. Cameras
flashed and I was on top of the world.
Loud squealing and laughing brought me back to
the present. My sisters friends had come over
and they were planning to go shopping for their
dresses. As they were leaving, I suggested they
look up prom limo services as well. And that
only resulted in more excited whoops, and after
a lot of thankful hugs, I escaped up to my room
to complete my paper which was due the following
Please have a look around our site and contact
our friendly staff with any questions you may
have. While we can't promise that the DJ will
play music that the prom-goers are into, we can

and immaculate limousines will be a very
enjoyable experience.Serving cities like

European Schoolnet, a network of 31 Ministries of Education in Europe, is organising various activities on this occasion to raise awareness about STEM studies and careers, as part of three European projects.
Scientix, which is funded by the Horizon 2020 framework for research and innovation of the European Union, has three competitions for teachers. They can "make their own poster" to show how their favourite Scientix resources, "organise STEM events" or discuss ideas for classroom activities based on their "favourite science books". Scientix will select two winners in each competition and invite them to a science projects workshop at the Future Classroom Lab in Brussels from 23 to 25 June 2017!
STEM Alliance recently introduced a new tool that facilitates exchange and collaboration between schools and industry. The peak of these activities will take place during the STEM Discovery Week. Teachers and schools who use the tool to organise such activities may also be invited to the Science Projects Workshop in June.
Last but not least, the Amgen Teach project is holding two workshops for teachers in Germany and Belgium. Additionally, it invites people to register for a special session of its Distance Learning Activity of the Molecoolar Kitchen, which introduces scientific ideas and procedures to be used in kitchens.Back

Decomposed remains of girl discovered under a Lakewood trailer in 1977
Her parents reported her as a run away on December of 1976 to the Denver police. The family had a home in East Denver.
Pamela had been an outgoing girl and there was reason to believe she hadn't left her home willingly.
The last anyone had ever seen Pamela was at the VFW Hall, 1190 Balsam St. in Lakewood where the reception had been held on Dec. 11, 1976.
Witnesses remembered seeing her with different people.
One person saw her leaving the party with an older deaf man.
Another witness said she had left with an acquaintance of hers, a man named Gregory Palmer.
Eight months after the sightings, Pamela's body had been found in a trailer park near Balsam and West Colfax Avenue, not far from where the reception had been held.
Palmer had been living in the same trailer park where the body was found, according to a former Lakewood police detective.
Shortly after Pamela's body was found Palmer left the state.
His last known addresses were in Florida and Louisiana.
But in recent years, authorities have not been able to locate him to do follow up interviews.
Anyone with information that could help solve this case is asked to call the Lakewood Police Department Cold Case Hotline at (303) 987-7474 or e-mail at email@example.com.
