Orleans Hawks Puckett Cabin, BRP
Posted on May 2, 2018
The Puckett cabin at milepost 189.1 on the Blue Ridge Parkway is a tribute to the midwife Orlean Hawks Puckett. She had little education and married John Puckett at 16.
Puckett gave birth to and lost 24 children. Many were stillborn and the rest died in infancy. Many believe she symbolizes the strength of the Appalachian woman. Several theories exist today about why Orlean's was unable to carry a pregnancy to term.
In 1889, when Orlean was in her 50s, a neighbor went into labor and no doctor could be found. This began her career as a midwife, and for the next 50 years, she traveled the Virginia countryside, never charging for her services. She was known for her compassion and skill. In more than 1,000 deliveries, she never lost a mother or a baby. Orlean delivered her last baby at age 94, and died in 1939. This cabin was her last home.
Orlean moved from her home in 1939 because of the construction of the Blue Ridge Parkway. However, she died three short weeks afterward. A small cabin on her property was preserved by the National Park Service, and is known to be Puckett Cabin.
Continuing her legacy, the Orlean Hawks Puckett Institute, in Asheville, North Carolina, works to promote and strengthen child, parent, and family development.
The Rookery … a real treat
Posted on April 25, 2018
Somewhere on the backroads between Georgia and South Carolina, I caught a glimpse of a lot of "white" out of my peripheral vision. I had to travel about a half mile before I was able to turn around and pull off the side of the road. I was thrilled to stumble across the rookery. I counted about 100 egrets in the area. I hated to leave. But! I noticed a couple of days later, after downloading the photos … the wood stork standing back to back with the egret and another sitting in the nest. I didn't even notice him while standing there. A real treat.

Sullivan's Island Lighthouse
Posted on April 22, 2018
The Sullivan Island Lighthouse, in South Carolina, is the last major lighthouse built by the Federal Government, completed in 1962, The tower has a unique triangle shape and looks more like an air traffic control tower than a lighthouse. One point of the triangle faces the ocean and withstands winds up to 125 mph. The light can be seen for 27 miles on a clear night. The lighthouse was originally painted red and white and the residents petitioned the Government to re-paint it to black and white.
Rainbow Row – Charleston, SC
Posted on April 21, 2018
Rainbow Row was coined for the 13 pastel colored historic Georgian buildings from 79 to 107 Bay Street in beautiful Charleston, South Carolina. The homes, originally built in the 1800s, were painted as they were restored in the 1930s and 1940s. Prior to restoration, they were in poor condition and were so run down, they were considered slums.

meat glue
Also found in: Wikipedia.
meat glueAny of a family of enzymes (EC 22.214.171.124), obtained from Streptoverticillium mobaraense fermentation or extracted from animal blood, which digest skeletal muscle, allowing thin strips of animal meat to be fused together as "reformed" meat, creating thickened "steaks" from scraps. Meat glue is used in the restaurant industry to maximise the value of lesser grades of meat. The public health disadvantage is that bacteria may colonise at the interface and/or become incorporated in the meat and, for customers who like undercooked meat, pose a risk of infection.

On 7-13 February 2018, Kuala Lumpur was host to the 9th World Urban Forum; at the event, on 8 February, ARROW organised a side event titled "Gender Responsive, Inclusive and Safe Space for Women for Resilient and Sustainable Cities," where we highlighted the key issues in ensuring a gender-responsive urban development and planning that takes into account gender inequality, gender-based violence and affordable and universal access to health services, including sexual and reproductive health services. In continuation of that dialogue, Sivananthi Thanenthiran, the Executive Director of ARROW, has written an article on the multiple dimensions that make up a truly social inclusive city:
Cities –sprawling entities, shining beacons of the modern-day development – are often equated with the issues of over-crowding, pollution, marginalisation, and a lack of safety. However, cities also have tremendous potential: they can be safe, culturally rich, economically vibrant, creatively stimulating, and most of all – sustainable – consuming low levels of energy and resources. Cities are also able, to roll out services effectively and efficiently, to citizens in rapidly urbanising scenarios.
The concept of "the city" has fascinated people for a long time. The Greeks and the Romans were all deeply interested in the design, building and running of cities. In the Renaissance period, Shakespeare asked, "What is the city, but the people?", striking right at the heart of the most important aspect of sustainable development of cities – understanding the people who populate it.
Cities are a melting pot of very diverse groups of people, possibly the most diverse representation of the population of a whole country. The lure of the bright, neon lights attracts hopefuls in search of a better life and future for themselves and their families, and to realize their full potential as human beings, like so many moths to a flame. It is safe to say that the citizens in any city will be comprised of men, women, children, migrants (both internal and external), the rich, the poor, the well-educated and the lesser educated, those employed both by the formal and informal sectors.
Hence, the first point we must take note of is that social inclusivity of cities is a critical aspect of human rights and city governance, and it will be a key determinant of how well cities will develop.
Subsequently, addressing social inclusivity entails the need to tackle poverty and inequalities in cities, in line with the central discussion of the post-2015. Even as cities generate income and wealth for economic growth, it is there that the disparities amongst individual citizens is at its starkest. The poverty amidst plenty is visible to all, and the juxtaposition of where and how the wealthiest live alongside the poorest has been immortalised in counter culture cartoons and images.
Hence, one of the key strategies to reduce poverty must be focused on the reduction of urban poverty. There are a few dimensions to urban poverty:
The convergence of these dimensions reinforces the importance of access to health services for poverty reduction strategies in cities, and this too refers to not just a generic and nebulous concept, but a comprehensive set of services, especially sexual and reproductive health services such as access to contraceptive services, access to maternal health services (antenatal, delivery, post-natal, abortion and post-abortion care, access to STIs and HIV screening, treatment and care, access to GBV services), health and legal services, as well as access to CSE and life-skills for marginalised groups (young people, women, migrants, LGBTIQ, sex workers). For specific economic groups it will be essential to make sure these services are affordable if not free, and there are social insurance schemes that take care of the poorest and most marginalised groups in society. Taking into consideration rural-urban migration, and inter-state migration, barriers such language and ethnic differences need to be catered for. In some societies which follow registration systems such as the hukou system in China – need to be updated and revamped – to ensure that migrant workers are able to procure services at cities they work in, and not just the villages they were born in.
Crucially, these strategies will also help break the vicious cycle of poverty and ill-health amongst the urban poor by reducing their out-of-pocket health expenditure, and reduce social inequalities between the different income groups and between migrants and residents.
The city is also a litmus test of whether the established frameworks (e.g. CEDAW, CRC, Beijing & Cairo) are realised. Is the city a place of equal treatement and equal opportunity for women as well as men? Is the city friendly and belong to its children? Is the city able to plan for its people and its future taking into account the inter-sections with different trends such as climate change & technology development? Agenda 2030 and the SDGs have a great potential to be the red ribbon that ties international framework and local implementation together – let us all ensure that it shall be so.

You have no doubt been in a situation where you've had to slam on your brakes, thankful that they work so well. Applying your vehicle's brakes is an example of stopping kinetic energy, which is present when your car is moving. Most automobiles today have anti-lock brakes. The ABS, or anti-lock braking system, is a four-wheel system that modulates braking pressure automatically during a quick stop. When the brakes are engaged, fluid is forced through a set of valves from a master cylinder, causing pressure that is transmitted to the hydraulic control units at each wheel. You can learn more about ABS from the pros at Meineke #4197 in Poway, CA.
During normal braking procedures, the pedal action for an ABS or anti-lock braking system will feel much the same as it would in a vehicle having a non-ABS system. In an emergency, however, anti-lock brakes prevent wheel lock-up while allowing the driver to maintain steering control. In a critical situation when the brake pedal is depressed, the ABS will also bring the car to a stop in the shortest distance possible. Wondering if your car has anti-lock brakes? Just ask the specialists at Meineke #4197 in Poway, CA.
Vehicles equipped with an ABS brake system generally have a dashboard light associated with the system. Some older vehicles may use the check engine light. However, your car will start to show physical signs during ABS brake failure. It may require more effort to press down on the brake pedal or the pedal may actually be unresponsive. If your ABS brakes need service, you will still have control and use of your regular braking system. This is not a reason to ignore ABS brake service. Bring your vehicle to the trusted technicians at Meineke #4197 in Poway, CA for repairs and maintenance.
It might seem strange that your regular brakes work properly even though the ABS brake light is on. This is no reason to ignore the light, because the anti-lock brakes prevent hydroplaning or skidding in adverse weather conditions. The ABS brakes give you more traction when you're on a slick surface. The new technology of braking gives you even more control over your car, even if you start to slide. Bring your vehicle to Meineke #4197 in Poway, CA for ABS brake service to keep you and your passengers safe under any type of driving conditions.
The anti lock braking system is key to optimal vehicle safety. It is one of the most important components of your car, and any malfunction is a sign that you need to get it checked right away.

TEES, Texas A&M-Kingsville receive $1 million NSF grant for science, engineering and math students
KINGSVILLE, Texas - Texas A&M University-Kingsville and the Texas Engineering Experiment Station have received almost $1 million from the National Science Foundation for a major student recruitment and retention program at the university. The five-year project, "TAMUK STEP: A Model for Student Success and Persistence," aims to provide access to science, engineering and mathematics degrees for the predominantly Hispanic population of the South Texas region served by Texas A&M-Kingsville and to increase the availability of a trained technical workforce for the state primarily by focusing on six South Texas community partners: Del Mar College, Coastal Bend College, Palo Alto College, San Antonio College, St. Phillips College, Southwest Junior College and South Texas Community College. "This is excellent news that allows us to expand recruitment efforts, conduct educational research and partner with community colleges to build a pathway to four-year degrees in engineering, mathematics and science," said Texas A&M-Kingsville President Rumaldo Z. Juárez. The award was jointly developed by engineering and science faculty at Texas A&M-Kingsville, regional community colleges and the Texas Engineering Experiment Station (TEES). The fiscal agent for this project will be TEES, the engineering research agency of the State of Texas and a member of The Texas A&M University System. Dr. G. Kemble Bennett, vice chancellor for engineering of the A&M System, said "This is a great example of how TEES fulfills its statewide mission of creating partnerships that secure federal dollars for Texas to support our work in engineering and science. Through partnerships like this one with TAMU-Kingsville, $1 million in federal funding comes to Texas, allowing our brightest researchers to engineer a better future. The citizens of Texas ultimately benefit most." The number of Hispanics earning bachelor's degrees in engineering in 2002-2003 remained flat from 1999-2002, while the Hispanic population of the United States rose to 13 percent. In addition, Hispanic students have been shown to be less likely than any other group to leave their home region for education or careers, putting Hispanic Serving Institutions like A&M-Kingsville in a strong position to meet educational needs. With research showing that first-generation and underrepresented students are predisposed to begin their higher education at community colleges, TAMUK STEP will partner with five regional community colleges like Del Mar to keep students moving ahead to degree completion in science, engineering and math disciplines. It is anticipated that the TAMUK STEP program will affect 1,200 students over five years, with more than 55 percent of those students to be Hispanic. Principal investigator Dr. Kuruvilla John, associate professor of environmental engineering and associate dean of the Frank H. Dotterweich College of Engineering at A&M-Kingsville, said that the project will attempt to accomplish several key objectives through innovative approaches such as establishing peer advisers programs at community colleges; initiating faculty learning groups to develop recruitment and retention strategies; enhancing a foundational course at the freshmen level; and providing research experiences at the undergraduate and community college levels. Additionally, science, engineering and mathematics student chapters and engineering professionals will mentor TAMUK STEP students. In conjunction with TAMUK STEP is a redesign of the university's introductory course in engineering that will allow freshmen students to get a taste of all the disciplines more hands-on lab and research experience. In the past, students received their research experience in their senior year. The TAMUK STEP project management includes Texas A&M-Kingsville engineering and science faculty Dr. Ali Pilehvari, Dr. Hector Estrada and Dr. Daniel J. Suson, and Dr. Blanca "Rosie" Garcia of Del Mar College. Texas A&M-Kingsville and Del Mar College are both TEES regional divisions, with $10 million in funded projects from the National Science Foundation that were developed through TEES.

In general terms, women are more conscious of their bodies than men. Rates of eating and food problems are much higher in women than they are in men. And society puts much more emphasis on female physical appearance than on the physical appearance of males. Additionally, women tend to face more objectification than men. In all, these conditions combine to increase the risk of body dissatisfaction in women. This can lead to significant mental health problems, the most common of which include anorexia (AN), bulimia (BN), and other conditions of disordered eating (ED). Women who experience these issues often demonstrate distorted self-perceptions and emotional reactions.
In fact, it has been shown that women with high levels of body dissatisfaction respond to weight and body image words with fear and avoidance, similar to the way in which people with anxiety respond to threatening cues. Other indications of ED vulnerability may include the physiological response to such cues, but this theory has yet to be fully tested. Therefore, Cornelia Herbert of the Department of psychology at the University of Wurzburg in Germany recently led a study that measured the heart rate and startle response in a sample of 41 women.
Herbert exposed the women to words that were related to weight and body shape and neutral words and found that although the majority of the women responded to the body related words with increased heart rate, only those at risk for ED had increased startle responses. In fact, these women were more likely to exhibit symptoms of disordered eating, such as extreme dieting, excessive exercising, and negative body image, when compared to those with normal startle responses.
These findings are extremely important because they can provide a unique way in which to identify women most at risk for ED. Although most women may have some level of body dissatisfaction, and as the results of this study show, have a physiological response to any words related to the body, those who may go on to develop EDs are clearly distinguishable. Herbert added, "Peripheral-physiological measures such as the startle reflex could possibly be used as predictors of females' risk for developing EDs in the future." She hopes that these findings help identify those women in the earliest stages in order to prevent them from the negative consequences associated with EDs.

People with diabetes are at a higher risk of becoming depressed. About 15 to 20 percent of people with diabetes also have depression. That rate is about four times greater than the general population. Like diabetes, depression is an illness that can be treated.
Depression doesn't mean feeling blue or sad once in awhile. Most people feel down sometimes. In the case of depression, these feelings last for weeks, months, or even years.
Being depressed can make it harder to take care of day-to-day responsibilities. It can also hurt relationships with family members, co-workers, and friends. For someone with diabetes, being depressed can get in the way of doing the things a person needs to do to keep blood sugar levels in control.
We don't know why depression is so common in people with diabetes. Does diabetes cause depression? Does depression trigger diabetes? The relationship between these conditions isn't clear. Anyone with diabetes should be aware of and watch for signs of depression.
Signs of depression are both mental and physical. Physical signs can include stomach problems, headaches, and backaches.
If a person has any of the following symptoms most of the time and they last for two weeks or more, it could be a sign of depression.
If signs of depression last for two weeks or more and get in the way of normal activities at work, school, or home, it's time to get help. Talk to a member of your health care team about the best way to treat your depression. Depending on your symptoms, your doctor might want to check for other possible causes before deciding on the right treatment plan for you. You can also call 1-888-287-2680 (206-901-6300).

On the campaign trail, President Elect Donald Trump repeatedly discussed his plans to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and impose high tariffs on imports of Mexican goods. The trade agreement's terms provide for the possibility of either withdrawal or amendment. The impact either action would have on U.S. companies is hard to predict.
If the deal is scrapped entirely, tariffs would potentially revert to significantly higher pre-NAFTA levels. However, an extreme hike in tariffs on imports of Mexican and Canadian goods is unlikely. Such a move could trigger a trade war with these allies, inciting them to raise their own tariffs on imports of American goods, thereby hurting sales of American products north and south of the border. Further, it would harm U.S. businesses, such as GM, IBM and Coca-Cola, that manufacture parts and products in Mexico and ship them back to the U.S. While higher tariffs could result in some U.S. companies maintaining or increasing domestic manufacturing investment and hiring (as has been seen with recent announcements by Carrier and Ford), the downward impact of higher U.S. labor costs on U.S. company profits may discourage similar actions by other companies. Further, many legal scholars believe Trump would need Congressional support for a repeal of NAFTA, and a minority of just 40 Senators could successfully filibuster any such effort. Given these political and economic considerations, more tempered amendments of various aspects of NAFTA are more likely. The Trump transition team seems to have recognized this, as Anthony Scaramucci, senior advisor on the impact of NAFTA, was recently quoted as saying "I don't think we're looking to rip up NAFTA as much as we are looking to right-size it and make it fairer."
The details on proposed changes to NAFTA remain scarce, but the uncertainty shouldn't last too much longer. The Trump transition team has been moving swiftly to select its candidates for Cabinet and other high-level administration trade posts over the past several weeks. Commerce Secretary-designee Wilbur Ross is expected to be the main architect of the administration's trade policy, and Robert Lighthizer has just been selected as the pick for U.S. Trade Representative, a position he previously held under President Ronald Reagan. Ross and Lighthizer will work alongside Jason Greenblatt, the new special representative for international negotiations, and Peter Navarro, who was tapped to head a new National Trade Council. Thus far Ross has expressed his intent to focus on growing U.S. exports and reducing the trade deficit. Time will tell how these goals will align with promised changes to NAFTA and other trade agreements.

Ultimate for Nintendo Switch. Between the likes of Super Smash Bros., a slew of new Pokemon titles and, at long last, a port of Fortnite, Switch owners certainly won't be short of new entries in their favorite franchises.
If you missed anything out of the Nintendo E3 2018 Direct, we have you covered. There's a lot here we've heard before, although we now know that Mew will be available for all players who purchase a Pokemon Plus accessory on November 16.
The Nintendo Switch is no stranger to co-op oriented games as one of the console's highlight features has always been offline multiplayer. I think it took four games for me to record my first victory (with Fire Emblem Fates' Corrin). Nintendo also opened its E3 showcase with Deamon X Machina, a somewhat ferocious and frantic mech game.
Moreover, every character has been tweaked or updated for the new game, some with more minor variations and others with overhauled looks gamers will discover as they play. You'll have to wait until the second quarter of 2019 to get your hands on it but we bet its worth the while. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate arrives December 7, 2018. We'll see just how much there is on December 7. Ice Climbers are back alongside newcomers such as the Splatoon's Inklings.
Super Mario Party features new minigames played in a variety of ways, from traditional controller-and-TV types to tabletop modes that run across two wirelessly connected Switch systems. Solid Freakin' Snake is back.
If you are looking for how you can to tune into the Nintendo Super Smash Bros. There's so much to take in here. Ultimate is clearly going to be one of the marquee titles coming to Switch owners later this year, and Nintendo provided a few more details on the upcoming fighting game that brings together (almost) all of its franchises and characters in one place. It will also be compatible with all previous Smash amiibo. What an awesome surprise!
If you were expecting a bunch of big Switch announcements for 2018 and beyond, the sheer focus on Smash might have been disappointing. And that's a wrap for tonight's show!

I'm waiting on $999.04 in reimbursements from work. It's been over 3 weeks since I first turned in my expense report. I'm hoping that I get the money soon. I did pay for them out of our checking account so thankfully I don't have almost a grand sitting on a credit card racking up interest.
I would have already had the money but I filled out the wrong area of the expense report initially. I wish I would have done it correctly so I would have the money by now.
Oh, well. Just waiting...

Wall art can be applied to most wall types and painted surfaces. It's crucial to allow enough time for freshly painted walls to fully dry. If not, the adhesive on your wall art can fail and the graphics can fall off.
A freshly painted wall needs at least 21 days to dry before applying wall art. We recommend applying a water-based eggshell finish and giving this enough time to dry as well. This guarantees your wall art will stick well and last for a long time.
There are several things you should do before vinyl fitters arrive. This increases the lifespan of your wall art and reduces fitting time.
- Clean the wall to remove any dust from the surface. Minimise the amount of dust in the air as much as possible.
- Remove any wall fittings on surface where wall art is being applied. This includes light switches, mounted TVs, coat hooks, framed pictures and anything else that could get in the way.
- Make sure a freshly painted wall has been allowed to dry for 21 days.
There is no size limit for your wall art. Looking to create a large focus wall? Large wall art and full wall wraps are a fantastic way to make a bold statement and transform any room. Our printers have a maximum print height of 1300mm but there's no limit to the size of wall you can cover. We simply split your wall covering or wall art into smaller pieces that are individually applied.
Let us know the surface type of your wall.
Your wall art should look great and stand the test of time. Different materials behave differently on different surfaces. Please tell us if your wall is exposed brick, bare concrete, a flat or bumpy finish, emulsion painted or not. This helps choose the right kind of material for the job and gives you the best possible result the first time around.
Provide measurements for your wall art in centimeters (cm).
Wrong measurements are the most common mistake we come across. To get perfect results first time around, carefully measure the spaces where you need wall art. The more measurements the better.
If measuring for simple wall art logos, tell us the size you want for the final artwork. For full wall wraps, carefully measure the dimensions of your wall excluding the skirting board at the bottom. This ensures your wall branding covers your entire wall perfectly.
Send us your postcode to get a quote including professional installation.
Wall art should look great. We always recommend getting your custom wall art fitted by our team of professional vinyl fitters. This is especially true for large and more complex jobs. On a tight budget or feel confident fitting some simple wall art yourself? Watch our detailed tutorial videos on our How To page.
Describe what you want in detail. Attach high-resolution artwork or reference images if possible.
The creative possibilities of vinyl are endless. There's no limit to what we can print on or cut into vinyl. Custom sizes of stock designs from our shop, simple colours, complex custom artwork or even photographs. Describe exactly what you want in detail and always attach the highest resolution artwork (or vector) that you have available. This helps you get a quick and accurate quote.
Don't have artwork? No problem. Our designers can make it for you as long as you describe what you want in detail.
Send vector artwork if you have it.
Your artwork must be in vector format for custom vinyl decals or lettering. If you don't have a vector file, we can help you make one. You will need to send the highest possible resolution image file you have for this to work well.
Attach the highest resolution file you have.
Large custom wraps and vinyl stickers require high resolution images if you don't have vector artwork. Make sure to send the highest resolution file you have available to you. This ensures you get the highest quality result possible.
A good rule of thumb is this. Want something 10 cm x 10 cm or larger? Your file should be at least 1 MB large. If not, it is probably very low resolution and will not print well.
Follow these technical specifications to get the best results.
Vector files (ai/svg/eps) in CMYK colour format are the best files to send. CMYK format ensures you get perfect colour matching between your custom print and the artwork in your document. Vector files mean we can scale your artwork to any size without losing any quality.
Make your file to scale when possible and set the document units to millimeters. All cut paths for die-cut stickers should be saved in a separate layer titled 'CutContour' and set to 1 pt stroke with a spot colour of bright magenta.

Visa are introducing new chargeback rules. Here's what you need to know.
Why is Visa changing their chargeback dispute process?
Visa is introducing new chargeback rules for all merchants, cardholders and banks. The new rules will ensure that chargeback processes are applied consistently all over the world.
What's changing?
- Automated dispute decisions. Card schemes including Visa and MasterCard, outline which chargebacks are automated and which can be disputed. The changes mean some chargebacks with a fraud or authorisation reason code will be automated and the chargeback will be debited from the merchant's bank account.
- Fewer invalid customer chargebacks. If a chargeback doesn't meet the necessary criteria as outlined by the schemes, the chargeback will be declined and returned to the cardholder's bank. Merchants can expect to see a reduction in invalid chargebacks disputes initiated by cardholders.
Will this affect the number of chargebacks merchants receive?
Under the new chargeback process, schemes will automatically determine if a chargeback is valid or not. If the chargeback is invalid, it will be returned to the cardholder's bank – and merchants won't need to do anything. This means merchants may receive fewer invalid chargeback disputes in future.
Can merchants still dispute chargebacks?
In some circumstances, merchants will still be able to dispute a chargeback. Schemes outline which chargebacks are automatic and which ones merchants can dispute. Some processing error or consumer dispute chargebacks can be disputed.
- The Visa chargeback guideline is downloadable from this page.
- The MasterCard chargeback guideline is downloadable from this page.
What happens if merchants dispute a chargeback?
If merchants dispute a chargeback, they will need to provide documentary evidence to support their claim. If merchants haven't provided satisfactory evidence, the dispute may become an automatic chargeback, and their account will be debited.
What documentation is important to keep?
To reduce the risk of chargebacks caused by customer disputes, it's important merchants keep detailed transaction records showing that each cardholder has received the goods or services they've paid for. This may include signed and imprinted sales receipts and any other relevant sales information.
Need more information?
- If you have any questions about the new Visa chargeback rules, contact our Merchant Enquiries team on 1800 230 177 – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- For general information about chargebacks, see Understanding chargebacks.

- European pulp buyers squeezed by input costs denominated in euros vs. dollars
- U.S. papermakers overcoming stronger dollar through lower feedstock prices
- Paper companies' sensitivity to power costs as they belong to energy-intensive industries
- Growing importance of recycling and bioenergy in the paper sector to tackle climate change
Tissue and wrapping enjoy better outlook than printing and writing
The upstream pulp sector has been coping with an uneven demand worldwide. At the same time, global pulp production has leveled off following capacity cutbacks despite Latin America appeared to be more favored. And yet pulp prices appear to be unable to do better than capping at their 2012 level, especially across Europe.
A dwindling demand undermines two subsectors in the downstream sector of paper and paperboard. Growing digitalization has been a thorn in the side of printing and writing papers and newsprint. Fortunately, the paper sector can still rely on tissue and wrapping papers, both of which are dependent on household consumption. Asia, which accounts for 45% of total paper and board demand, cashes in on a recovering household consumption. It makes up for sluggish demand from either Western Europe or Latin America. This does not prevent domestic paper companies from proceeding with plant closures when needed.
However, thanks to a surprising resilience of mass retailing and a rising demand for e-commerce packaging, we expect the global gross output of pulp and paper to go up +1.4% in 2017 vs. 2016. The paper's era has not come to an end yet.

Bush-41 returns to St. Martin's-Houston for final rites
Twice in two days the nation watched the splendor and majesty of an Episcopal liturgical service
By Mary Ann Mueller
VOL Special Correspondent
December 8, 2018
HOUSTON, TEXAS --- Late Wednesday (Dec. 5) afternoon, Special Mission 41 touched down as the sun was dropping low in the sky. Former President George HW Bush was returning to his adopted hometown one last time. This time he returned to St. Martin's Episcopal Church for his final funeral rites and a last train ride to his burial site in College Station.
Accompanying him on the president's plane was Fr. Russell Levenson, St. Martin's rector, who has been the Bush family pastor for a dozen years. He was at Bush-41's bedside when he died. He went with the grieving Bush family to Washington, DC for the formal state funeral at the National Cathedral. He accompanied the Bushes back to Houston on Special Mission 41. He conducted the president's final funeral -- a smaller, more intimate service -- and he accompanied Bush-41 to his final resting place in College Station aboard the Presidential Funeral Train. Then, away from the prying eyes of the media, the elder Bush was laid to rest next to his first lady, Barbara Bush, with two Episcopal priests conducting the committal rite.
Wednesday, Special Mission 41 landed at Ellington Field just as Houston's rush hour was about to commence. Traffic was snarled as the former president was driven by hearse to St. Martin's where he lay in repose through the night. En route, drivers pulled over and stopped on the Interstate to watch the black funeral car go by. Darkness had fallen when President Bush returned to his home church for the final time. Lines of people were already beginning to form. They were preparing to quietly, reflectively and prayerfully pass by the flag-draped casket sitting upon a catafalque placed in front of the altar. All night the people came to pay their silent respects.
Thursday (Dec. 6) was the final day of public mourning for George HW Bush, a lifelong Episcopalian who became president. He was a New Englander who became a Texan and a husband and a father who chose Houston as the place to raise his growing family and to retire after his political life was completed. Three of his six children were born in Texas, the youngest daughter -- Dorothy -- was born in Houston. The children were spiritually nurtured at St. Martin's. It is there they went to church. It is there they attended Sunday school. It is there they participated in Christmas plays and Easter pageants. And the Bush children and grandchildren came back to St. Martin's to say a final good bye to not only their father, but also to their mother, Barbara Bush, a mere seven months ago. In their later years, the presidential couple usually sat next to St. George's window.
It was during the former First Lady's funeral that St. Martin's was first thrust into the limelight as national politicians and local dignitaries streamed into Houston for her Episcopal funeral which was livestreamed on the Internet and carried on network television.
Thursday, many of those same local, state and religious dignitaries returned for Bush-41's hometown funeral: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott ... Houston's mattress mogul -- James "Mattress Mack" McIngvale ... the Oak Ridge Boys ... Daniel Cardinal DiNardo ...
Bush's Houston funeral had a more patriotic flavor than his rite at the National Cathedral, where great care was taken to highlight a spiritual emphasis over the militaristic. Returning to Texas, the "Ruffles and Flourishes" were sounded each time the former president's casket was moved, however the musical fanfare was not followed by the traditional "Hail to the Chief." George HW Bush was a former president, but in returning to his home church he came simply as a Houstonian, a proud Texan and a lifelong Episcopalian. His full presidential honors were displayed in Washington.
St. Martin's funeral was a smaller and more intimate affair for family and friends. The same Book of Common Prayer funeral rite was used. It was the same familiar burial service that was used for Barbara Bush's April service and for his service at the National Cathedral. This time the "National Anthem" was played as was "America the Beautiful" and "This is my Country."
The Navy Hymn was used as the gradual hymn before and after the reading of the Gospel.
Presidential son George W. Bush took a back seat. The family eulogy fell to the eldest grandson, not the eldest son. George P. Bush regaled the assembled congregation with his memories of his "Gampy." Keeping with the family tradition of public service, the younger namesake George Bush is the Texas Land Commissioner. Houston born, he is the son of Jeb Bush, the former governor of Florida.
The senior Bush was a long-time fan of the Oak Ridge Boys. He first met them in 1983 when he was vice president and their friendship grew and stood the test of time. They once sang that hymn to him over the telephone as he was battling for life in a Houston ICU. That was just the medicine the president needed at the time to bolster his spirits. They were tapped to sing again to their departed friend. Side-stepping their Christmas tour, they came to Houston to sing "Amazing Grace" at Bush's funeral.
The Oaks said that when he had a chance their presidential friend used to like to join in and sing bass and share the microphone with Richard Sterban.
"He fancied himself to be a good bass singer," tenor Joe Bonsall revealed. "He was not."
Bush-41 nearly fell out of his front row seat laughing from fond memory, then he quietly sang along with the Oaks as they serenaded his father one last time, singing acapella.
The Oaks were not the only country music stars to participate in the Houston rites. Reba McEntire sang her own rendering of the Lord's Prayer to a simple piano accompaniment.
President Bush-the-younger also really liked St. Martin's parish choir's performance of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," the Civil War hymn written by Julia Ward Howe and arranged by Peter J. Wilhousky. The Wilhousky's concert arrangement of the hymn is famous. It was also the version used at President Ronald Regan's 2004 state funeral at the National Cathedral.
Bush-41 kept time with the music by the nodding of his head and tapping his foot while singing along on the chorus, as did his brother Jeb, then they showed their appreciation with applause.
Following the benediction by Bishop Andrew Doyle (IX Texas), the final hymn of the Houston funeral rite was "Onward Christian Soldiers", which as sung as Bush-41 left his church for the final time with full military honors. His four-service honor guard never left his side.
Outside, all of St. Martin's clergy, a baker's dozen of them, including Bishop Doyle and Bishop Claude Payne (VII Texas) lined up along the walkway to witness the loading of Bush-41's casket and prayerfully send him on his way to his presidential library in College Station via a special funeral train waiting for him at the Union Pacific tracks in Spring, Texas.
As the hearse pulled away various law enforcement officers from a variety of departments -- Houston Police Department, Harris County Sheriff's Office, the Texas Highway, Patrol and the Texas Rangers -- snapped to attention and saluted as the funeral car travelled down the driveway towards the larger highway. Again, Houston midday traffic was snarled as the funeral procession maneuvered over bridges and through overpasses on its way to the awaiting train. Drivers pulled over and stopped to watch a former president pass by.
All the while in Spring, a special Union Pacific funeral train had been assembled to receive the president's body and carry it to College Station and burial. The funeral train was made up of 13 cars being pulled by UP Engine 4141, a diesel engine painted to resemble Air Force One. The locomotive's light blue paint scheme stood out against the darkened gray sky.
The train was large enough to carry the extended Bush family and close friends. Fr. Levenson and Fr. Peter Cheney also joined the cortege riding to College Station. The priests were still wearing their albs and white festival stoles. Fr. Cheney is the summer chaplain at St. Ann's Episcopal Chapel in Kennebunkport Maine, where the Bushes summered. He also travelled to Houston to participate in Barbara Bush's funeral in April.
The casket was displayed in the middle of the train in a flag-motif painted baggage car retrofitted with huge square picture windows to allow viewers to see the casket as it passed by. The final car carried a stylized presidential seal on back of its observation deck.
Bush-41 was a train enthusiast. He was born during a time in 1924, when trains were very much a part of the American scene. Mail was delivered by train. Each railroad had its own unique passenger service. And a young George Bush went to war riding a train and returned riding the train. It was a fitting conclusion to his funeral rituals to go by train to his burial place. As a candidate, Bush would use a train for whistle stop campaigning.
Thousands of Texans came out to watch the train pass by, catching a brief glimpse of the red and white stripes of the flag draping a presidential coffin as it went on its way. Some waved flags, but most took pictures with their cell phones. Many waved to the Bush family, while others displayed signs and banners of encouragement and remembrance. Each time the train came upon a cluster of people, it blew its horn, as if saluting those who came out to salute the former president and his family.
By the time the train arrived in College Station, it was raining, so the casket was covered with clear plastic to keep it dry. It was again transferred to a hearse for its final ride to the Bush Presidential Library on the campus of Texas A&M University. During the final strains of the National Anthem, the largest funeral missing-man fly-over zoomed across the Texas sky with 21 F/A 18 Hornets flying in precision in honor of Bush's service as a World War II Naval fighter pilot.
Then the president was solemnly carried down the stairs toward the grounds of his library and, eventually, over the bridge and behind the gate that leads into the private burial ground where his First Lady Barbara and young daughter Robin waited for him to join them in death.
The media was kept at bay. Only the family, selected friends, the Episcopal priests and military officers followed. Navy Chaplain Capt. Judy Malana never left the Bush-41's side. She was his personal military chaplain throughout the entire period of mourning. She joined him in Houston, followed him to Washington, then back again to Houston and on to College Station. Maj. Gen. Michael Howard performed the same service for Bush-43 and the grieving Bush family. Maj. Gen. Howard is the Commanding General of the Joint Force Headquarters -- National Capital Region of the U.S. Army Military District of Washington, which coordinated all the various aspects of the state funeral both in Texas and in Washington, DC.
On Friday (Dec. 7) the Secret Service official suspended its detail for "Timberwolf" (Bush-41).
Bush spokesman Jim McGrath tweeted: "The US Secret Service Bush Protective Division final notification: "Timberwolf's Detail concluded at 0600 ... with no incidents to report at the George Bush Presidential Library -- College Station, Texas. God speed Former President George H.W. Bush -- you will be missed by all of us."
The Bush grave sites are to reopen to the public on December 8.

Floating B4 boat labs to study the Brahmaputra River
The Union Government is planning to safeguard fast-eroding Majuli island — world's largest riverine island using research carried out on floating Brahmaputra Biodiversity and Biology Boat (B4) labs along Brahmaputra River.
The purpose of project is to study changes caused by dams, climate change, human interventions and eventual effects on river eco-system. It will constantly monitor impact of various environmental and anthropological factors that affect river and conduct research to mitigate effects.
The project's interdisciplinary work plan is developed with IIT Guwahati as the nodal agency. It will also study freshwater resources of North East India. The integrated approach is aimed to combine data, science and judgement that can impact policy. It will start research work by December 2017. Initially, it will cover region from Pasighat, Dibrigargh, Neemati, Tejpur and Guwahati in Assam.
Brahmaputra Biodiversity and Biology Boat (B4) labs
B4 boat labs will be large barge (or boat) which will be set up on river. It will be well-equipped laboratory with cold storage facilities for holding samples, along with multiple satellite boats or rafts that will venture into shallower and narrower parts of the river to lift samples. The boat will have permanent lab spread over two floors. One floor will be dedicated to scientists, while other floor will be accessible to residents of area to learn about the eco-system.

Molten Jet Stream discovered deep inside Earth's core
Scientists for the first time have discovered the so-called molten jet stream within the Earth's molten iron core using latest data obtained from three European satellites called Swarm.
The three satellites were launched in 2013 with the goal of studying Earth's magnetic field. The latest satellite data that helps create an sharpest 'x-ray' view of the planet.
Key Facts
- The molten jet stream is an accelerating band of molten iron circling the North Pole. It just like the jet stream in the atmosphere
- It moves about 40 km per year, currently in a westward direction. This speed is three times faster than normal outer-core speeds and hundreds of thousands of times faster than rate at which Earth's tectonic plates move.
- It is located along a boundary between two different regions in the core. This movement is caused when liquid in core flows toward the boundary from both sides and then is squeezed out sideways.
- Significance: The satellite data has helped clarify Earth's inner workings and magnetic field. It showed that changes in the magnetic field are actually being caused by the molten jet stream.
- The discovery can also add light in changing magnetic field of earth and may relate it with switch in direction of the jet stream.

Bob Marley: Born February 6, 1945
"Confident of the victory of good over evil"
Subscribe to Brasscheck TV
Why did Neil Bush impersonate a journalist to get access to Marley after allies of his father shot him?
It happened.
Neil Bush - the Bush who defrauded banks during the Savings and Loan Crisis - impersonated a reporter from Rolling Stone Magazine to get access to Marley after he was shot in a failed assassination attempt.
And did this visit have something to do with Marley coming down with an especially virulent form of cancer and dying shortly thereafter.

Goway to Cover Visa Fees for Brazil-bound Globetrotters
Whether heading to samba the night away or marvel at Iguassu Falls, Goway is picking up the bill for visa fees to Brazil.
GLENDALE, Calif. (PRWEB) November 03, 2017
Throughout November, Goway is offering Globetrotters jetting off on a Brazil vacation a credit to offset the cost of the country's hefty visa fee.
A political tool that often becomes a game of 'tit for tat' between countries, visas catch Globetrotters up in their wake, becoming an added cost and hassle to travel. Some visas and the procedures to obtain them can even dissuade Globetrotters from travelling to that country. One victim of its own policies is Brazil, where the lengthy and pricey visa process has deterred many visitors to South America from exploring its largest country.
While Goway Travel can't change Brazil's visa policy, the company is doing its part to ease the burden. For any Brazil booking made with Goway in the month of November, the company will cover the cost of the Brazil tourist visa. This can be a saving of $160US / $120CA – though as with all visa charges, there is the chance it will change by the time the traveller applies.
To be eligible for the credit, Globetrotters need to submit their receipt for the issuing of the visa when confirming their booking. Goway will then deduct that amount from the trip price.
Sadly, Goway cannot actually fill in the paperwork and submit the application. That's still up to the traveller, as is the cost of any third-party application service. But the company will cover the visa fee.
Brazil will in fact soon be making the visa process easier. Effective January 8th 2018, Canadian passport holders travelling to Brazil will be able to apply for their Brazilian visa via an electronic visa application, done online. As of June 15th 2018, US passport holders will enjoy the same service.
Now, crossing the border in Iguassu Falls from Argentina for a day visit to the Brazil side, visiting the vibrant city of Rio de Janeiro, the natural playground of the Pantanalor journeying to the heart of the Amazon is much easier and $160US / $120CA per person cheaper with no visa cost involved, all thanks to Goway.
Since 1970, Goway has been providing unforgettable travel experiences to Africa, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Central & South America, Idyllic Island destinations and Europe. Today Goway is recognized as one of North America's leading travel companies for individuals, families and groups to select exotic destinations around the globe. Goway has offices in Toronto, Vancouver, Los Angeles, Manila, and Sydney, Australia.

I took on another job 2 1/2 years ago and was managing teaching full time, writing and art director quite well until the magazine continued to grow and along with it my responsibilities. I'd quit but I love it too much. We started at 40 pages. Our last issue was 64 pages. We expect to be at 70 pages this summer. And me? I layout the entire magazine and do some of the graphic pages.
With so much going on this fall, I just fell out of the habit of chatting, blogging, etc. I did do several booksignings and sci-fi conventions, and I kept up with the Magic Maven newsletter, but folks, that's really not enough to keep your name fresh and in front of your reading public.
So, I suppose this is my summer resolution. Once I return from Scandinavia, I plan to get back into the groove. New movie - How Ciara Found her Groove. Ha ha. I may need help, but I know I can do it. Why? For one, I have a new book coming out in December, and I want to be sure and let readers know well in advance. It's my baby, you see.
I know, every book is our baby, but this is "the" one, the one closest to my heart, even more special than Celestial Dragon. Moonlight Magick is a Victorian fantasy romance complete with mysterious wizard, elves, gnomes and even trolls. I can't wait to share it with all of you.

This project took a different perspective on the phenomenon of Europeanisation than is traditionally adopted in the literature. Whereas most Europeanisation studies focus on the transposition and implementation of EU law, the starting point of this project was the recognition that EU law has a pervasive effect on national policy making. EU law not only influences the domestic legal order by imposing European legislation on it, but primary and secondary law and its interpretation by the European Commission and the ECJ constrain the range of policy options available to policy makers. By focusing on specific areas of EU primary law, namely the freedom of services and state aid control, new modes of governance (NMG) became relevant for the project. In the shadow of the EC Treaty, we identified some important NMG that had attracted relatively little attention in the debate on NMG. As to the principle of mutual recognition, a cornerstone of the European internal market, we first had to establish in how far it can be conceptualized as a NMG. As to European state aid control, a comprehensive overview of different modes of governance ranging from hard to soft types was developed.
By dealing with a central feature of 'old' European governance - the constraints that European economic law poses for domestic policies and institutions - the project was concerned with an issue that is at the core of several important concerns: the division of competencies between the national and the European level (i.e. the issue of subsidiarity); the legitimacy of the European order; the potential of new modes of governance; and the functioning of the European legal order after accession of CEE countries. By dealing with an area of law, where new modes of governance are relevant, we discussed the question how new modes of governance help to cope with the increased heterogeneity of Member states after enlargement.
