Benedikt Weinast: "The training is attractive"
Has worked since 2009 in the Felix Schoeller Group Customer Service Center
"In 2009 I started my training as an industrial sales representative with Felix Schoeller. The training programme was very well structured, because I was given an insight into lots of areas of the company e. g. Financial accounting, Purchasing and Sales. After my training, I was taken on by the Customer Service Center and in parallel to my work I do a degree in business economics at the Verwaltungs- und Wirtschaftsakademie (VWA), which is also financially supported by Schoeller."
What do you do at Felix Schoeller? What are you involved in? Why do you like it at Felix Schoeller?
"I work in Digital Media sales and am employed in the Customer Service Center. I am responsible for supporting a major client in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Sweden and Denmark in our Private Label business. Part of my job consists of order processing, communicating with agents, monitoring customers' payment performance and forecasting. For this, both internal coordination with our mill in Weissenborn and contact with our customers and/or agents are needed. I also work in a great team here, which means that I enjoy my everyday work."
What do you particularly like at Felix Schoeller?
"The pleasant working atmosphere, which is the result in particular of nice colleagues and very good teamwork, is something I particularly like. I also enjoy the contact on a daily basis with people from numerous countries."
What is the information flow like in the company?
"In our department, important in-house information is passed every week from my line manager to all colleagues as part of a team meeting. In this respect we are always well informed about the current situation. In some matters I am able to speak directly to my line manager. In addition, there are company discussions which take place several times a year. The information provided there by the management is passed via the line managers to all employees. Here too, the feedback of the employees is desirable and fed back to the management."
Felix Schoeller is a family-owned company. How do you notice this in your daily work?
"I think that features of a family-owned company are long-term, strategic planning and tradition. In addition, the important decisions are made by people whom every employee knows, which means that there is no too much anonymity. These features are, in my opinion, also present at the Felix Schoeller Group."
Kai Middeldorf: "I can grow professionally"
Senior Vice President Competence Center Engineering, employed by the Felix Schoeller Group since the mid-90s.
"After my Abitur [A-levels] I wanted to start a practically orientated study course – the integrated study programme at Felix Schoeller was exactly the right decision. Even in the second year of training there was the opportunity to take responsibility in smaller projects where the content of the engineering course could be combined in an ideal way with the content of the apprenticeship to become an industrial mechanic. Practical relevance also featured highly later when it came to continuing education and staff development. As part of my MBA I was able to work on interesting commercial topics. In addition, well-coordinated internal continuing education measures have greatly supported my professional development."
How did you come to be at Felix Schoeller?
"Should I study straight away or do an apprenticeship first? Not an easy decision and I was glad when, at a careers information event, I found out about the integrated technical study programme that was being offered by Schoeller and a few other companies in the mid- 90s in the Osnabrück area. I was immediately persuaded by the idea of the integrated study programme at Schoeller and looking back this was precisely the right decision."
What particularly attracted you about it?
"What I found particularly attractive was the idea of combining theory and practice: I wanted to study, but not just to become a theorist. Of course, being paid for an apprenticeship was also an important factor in respect of having greater financial independence. Out of all the possible companies Schoeller convinced me the most: the industry, its international outlook and presence, its high profile, the very good reputation. I also liked the size, the cleanliness and the modern nature of the mill.
My expectations of the training programme were not disappointed; my goal of practical relevance was more than fulfilled. Even during the foundation course, there was the opportunity of taking on responsibility in smaller projects. The complexity of the projects, tasks and challenges increased step by step. Other good opportunities for development were offered by working at different mills, including abroad. Getting to know other mills was not only exciting, varied and horizon-broadening, it was also immensely beneficial for networking. Knowing people you can speak to in other mills often makes your own work considerably easier."
What did you do after your training?
"After my degree dissertation, I stayed a few months in the Engineering Competence Center. As the coating plant in Weißenborn was developed further and started to grow significantly at the end of 2001, I started as a technologist on Coater 5 and, using the knowledge I gained during my degree dissertation, chiefly concerned myself with drying processes. Through the rapid growth of the coating plant I did not remain working with drying processes, and I soon had the opportunity to tackle other topics and take responsibility. The time spent on Coater 5 clearly showed me that Schoeller allows space for dedication and initiative and rewards this with trust and by giving additional responsibility."
What do you like about the Schoeller company?
"Above all the size of the company: on the one hand, Schoeller offers the benefits of small businesses such as flat hierarchies and short decision pathways. On the other, Schoeller is not too small and combines the advantages of larger companies. In my view, Schoeller is a modern industrial company that uses top technologies, modern management methods and means of communication and offers good social benefits. The size of the company also allows targeted staff development which, with many small companies, often fails because then the daily business threatens to collapse.
At Schoeller, young people get the chance to prove themselves and will develop accordingly. My MBA study course was benefited not least by the fact that I had the opportunity to look at commercial issues which went beyond my actual remit and was a long way, as is often stated, 'out of the box'. My development in the company was also supported by well-coordinated, high-quality internal professional development measures such as the basic programme, project manager training, executives' programme and ultimately the Management Development Center."
What does family-owned company mean for you at Felix Schoeller?
"At Schoeller, a family-owned company means for me chiefly: showing one another respect. Decisions by the management are made with a high degree of transparency and are comprehensible. They are not based on short-term data alone but aim at sustainability. There are very good company benefits. The employees are motivated, devoted to the company and proud of their work."
Margit Beckmann: "Compatibility of family and career"
Financial accountant, employed by the Felix Schoeller Group since 1996.
"At the Felix Schoeller Group the compatibility of family and career is an important issue which the management take very seriously. And this is also very important for me. I have the good feeling of being able to contribute something to the success of the company and at the same time to be there for my family. Therefore I am not just a mother or just an employee, I can do both at the same time. The nice thing is that Schoeller does not just say that it is a family-owned company but it really is one. My little boy knows that too and always says really proudly: the tower, that's where Mummy works."
How did you come to be at Felix Schoeller?
"I followed the classical route really. After training to become an accountant I saw a job advert for Schoeller and applied straight away. I then worked full time as a financial accountant. After the birth of my son, I took half a year break, after which I was able to start back working 20 hours a week. For Felix Schoeller that was no problem, and I was able to divide up the work just as I wished across the week. I therefore decided to do two days of full-time work. And it's never been a problem if my child fell ill; I was always able to look after my son."
Who helped you in your work?
"I did a job-share of a full-time post with a colleague who also has a child. I worked two days per week and she did three. We were completely flexible and were able to arrange things between us. Schoeller manages this in a really ideal way. Thanks also to the good teamwork and because I'm so happy with the way Schoeller manages things, we were able to extend our family in 2006 with a second child.
What do you associate with Schoeller as a family-owned company?
"Schoeller helps us employees to reconcile family and career. Even as a part-timer I always have the good feeling of being needed and appreciated. We part-timers are integrated among the staff which means I can work together effectively with other colleagues. It has worked very well with everyone I know. The compatibility of career and family is not just a saying at Schoeller, the whole company embodies it."
Detlev Brinkmann: "Interesting roles"
Manager of Electrical Engineering, employed by the Felix Schoeller Group for 15 years.
"The good thing as a project manager at Felix Schoeller is that I quickly got my own responsibility for budgets. Added to this is the fact that the project work is a kind of springboard. Projects are like a training camp or an education centre. The diversity of processes and facilities here is also striking, a paper machine here, an extruder there, a power plant or a coating machine, a purification plant or a high bay warehouse, materials handling technology or even a coating plant with batch processes, RFID and lots more. I don't think many people imagine such a range when they hear the word "paper mill"! But that's also what makes it interesting."
How do you work in projects at Felix Schoeller? How do projects run at Felix Schoeller?
"I started with Felix Schoeller 15 years ago and began in an interdisciplinary project team. The first project was not too big, but that was good. I was able to finish a task quickly and get a sense of achievement quickly. I received close supervision and it was very much a case of teamwork. The level of independence grew from project to project: the projects became longer, the level of individual responsibility grew and freedom opened up like a bud coming into flower. Gradually I was in charge of more and more project employees and the tasks became more and more diverse. The budget I was responsible for also got bigger and bigger, with my budget in the last project I partly managed being €10 million.
The overall project management, in other words beyond your own specialist area, can also be taken on in projects."
What difficulties and problems have arisen for you in projects?
"Naturally, in big projects, the parties involved have very different interests. Everyone wants to achieve the best for his or her area of responsibility.
One difficulty is managing, in technical matters, employees who are not below you in the hierarchy. Communication is very important here, you sit down at a table, and everything works well. The nice thing is that everyone wants to work together to produce something and are pursuing the same goal."
How are working hours dealt with at Schoeller?
"There is actually always a lot to do. But we have a lot of flexibility when it comes to working hours. It doesn't matter if from time to time you have to go out for three hours. It is simply important that you get the job done."
And another thing …
"The good thing with projects at Felix Schoeller is that I quickly got my own budget responsibility. Furthermore, the project work is a kind of springboard. You have the chance, if necessary, to take over demanding tasks at the sites e.g. managing a maintenance group or production management. Projects are like a training camp or education centre. The incredibly good links between project members and the good communication and team work result in good chances of career progression. Felix Schoeller wishes, and allows, you to develop yourself further. Project managers often act as a link between the mills and develop concepts extending beyond the individual mills, by developing, within projects, industrial standards that then apply to the whole group. And if all of this is accepted by everyone, it's a good feeling. The diversity of processes and facilities is also striking, a paper machine here, an extruder there, a power plant or a coating machine, a purification plant or a high bay warehouse, materials handling technology or even a coating plant with batch processes, where the mixes are put together on the basis of formulas, reel slitters, RFID and lots more. I don't think many people imagine such a range when they hear the word "paper mill"! But that's also what makes it interesting.
Above all the positive thing that should also be mentioned is that there are very flat decision-making structures. There can easily be a direct interview with the CEO and therefore a decision be made quickly."
What is working with the suppliers like?
"The work is carried out in cooperation with our technical purchasing department. Together, negotiation strategies are developed, with the responsibility lying with the project team.
It is also desired that there is scope for innovation. Everyone should think creatively, think laterally and develop new approaches. The nature of a specialty paper manufacturer makes the ability to innovate a necessity. Some things that we need are simply not available on the market and then you need to be creative and come up with something. That special thing reflected in our products is something you can also see in our work."
Harry Freyer: "Appreciation of employees"
an employee who has worked for at Felix Schoeller for 25 years on PM 1.
"Technical optimisation, Lean Management, financial support of sports activities and the reduction of the number of night shifts worked in one go significantly are significantly lessening the stress of shift work, including for older employees."
How long have you already been at Felix Schoeller and what are your duties?
"I've been working for Schoeller for 25 years. I work as a relief person on the grinding facility of PM 1, that means I am used at all workstations in my area. We work in a continuous shift system; that means 24 hours, 350 days per year, naturally including weekend work."
Is the shift work demanding?
"At the beginning I didn't mind it at all, but over time it's got increasingly difficult. It's good, therefore, that Schoeller has adjusted the shift systems. By reducing the number of night shifts worked in one go, the stress is considerably reduced, which means that even after the night shift, the normal rhythm can continue as normal. So this new system is really good for your biorhythm."
What is the work like in your group / team?
"We have a particularly good team spirit in our 'troop'. You can also see this in the fact that we do something together in our free time e.g. playing squash at "Bahamas", a sports centre here in Osnabrück. The good thing is that the company pays some of the membership fee and that as a result, many people have acquired a taste for doing sport. That's a good thing because the training means I am in better physical shape."
What was the age structure in the old days and has work changed for you?
"In the old days, 25 years ago, I was one of the youngest, but we have all grown older together. It used to be a bit easier, now we have spats sometimes."
What would make your work easier and/or what is Schoeller doing to achieve this?
"Technical optimisation definitely contributes to making the work easier – of course one could always still do more here. And of course the Lean Management project: it is a relief when unnecessary work can be avoided and workflows are improved to make things less demanding. In addition, part-time work makes things easier as through this you can more confidently plan your free time in advance, because fewer 'make-up shifts' have to be worked."
How did you go about Lean Management?
"We all sat down together at a table and worked together productively. We all listed our tasks precisely and then thought about what would need to happen to make the work easier. We then wrote down the results together, and everybody was happy. It went surprisingly well. The work became easier as a result and above all also less stressful. What is important about it is that we "normal" employees are involved from the beginning because of course we know the most about our jobs."
Why is doing shift work for Schoeller attractive for you?
"Naturally there are some advantages to shift work. I am able to run errands to official authorities or go to the doctor's in the morning, and having days free allows you to make a short trip somewhere now and then. In general, it is simply a good thing that sport is being supported and that as a result people are staying fit and healthy, and that the shift system has also been adapted so that one's body clock can adapt to it well."

The first theatre company in Montana was formed in Virginia City in the 1800's. They called themselves the Amateur Dramatic Association and performed comedic plays and recitations of famous works, such as Poe's "Raven." Their programs led with the quote, " Ours is the land and age of gold, and ours the laughing time" and ended with the quote, "Old Times will end our story,- But no time, if we end well, will end our glory."
In the summer of 1948, Dori and Larry Barsness, along with Larry's brother, Jack Barsness, visited Virginia City. In the evening they went to the old Brewery where someone was playing the piano and Larry joined in singing the songs of Gilbert and Sullivan. Charles Bovey, who had recently started work restoring the town of Virginia City, happened to be at their table. He was a great Gilbert and Sullivan fan and soon devised the idea to create a summer theatre in the town with Barsness's help. The three men agreed to create a show for the upcoming Miner's Convention and within two weeks they wrote and rehearsed a half hour melodrama called "Clem, the Miner's Daughter", found four more company members, and created costumes. They fashioned a platform stage in the Bale of Hay Saloon and printed a program that read "SHOWS FRI SAT MAYBE SUN". The show was a success and led to the formation of the Illustrious Virginia City Players.
The Opera House was originally called The Old Stone Barn because it was converted from a livery stable into a replica of a 19th Century Theater. The raked floor and the "pit" for the Cremona weren't added for several years. From the first, the Barsness's insisted on authenticity of presentation, from costumes to staging. Only 19th Century scripts were considered and were always presented "straight" and not as "mellodramy" or "take-offs" of the traditional style. The success of the Players through the years has more than proven the contention that such plays are more entertaining when not exaggerated.
Today, the Illustrious Virginia City Players is the oldest continually running summer stock theatre company in the Northwest. Although the company has passed through a handful of directors over the years, the Virginia City Players has remained a professional theatre company that recruits professional grade performers from all over the United States. Many former players have gone on to perform on television, in film and on Broadway! So sit back, relax and enjoy as the Illustrious Virginia City Players take you back in time!
The One-Man Orchestra
of the Virginia City Opera House
"What is the source of all the bell, percussion and pipe organ sounds?" It is our Cremona photoplayer! The only one left performing in the World today!
In the 1920's, silent films and vaudeville were accompanied by live musical instruments. Piano manufacturers began producing a wide variety of self-contained orchestras that could be operated by one person playing a piano.
Our photoplayer is a "Cremona Theatre Orchestra, solo style M-3". It is sixteen feet wide and features two side chests containing flute, violin, bass pipes, xylophone, bass drum, crash cymbal, tom tom, tympani, snare drum, sleigh bells, tambourine, castanets, cathedral chimes, triangle and a train bell. It was manufactured in Chicago by the Marquette Piano Co. and was regarded as "top of the line." No expense was spared in the creation of photoplayers, from the piano keys of genuine ivory to the double-veneered hardwood cases, newborn calfskin bellows and imported felt piano hammers.
With the advent of talking pictures, photoplayers swiftly became a relic of the past. Most Cremona's were dismantled and each instrument was sold individually. Today, of the thousands that were distributed across the United States, only four Cremona photoplayers are known to exist and the only one still in use in a theatre today is our very own Cremona here in Virginia City, Montana. In 1950, our photoplayer was discovered in a Deer Lodge, Montana drugstore hidden behind a wall that was installed when the original movie theater was remodeled for retail use. So sit back, relax, and enjoy a sound only heard by a tiny portion of the human population!

Some students use essays, research papers or dissertations.The law papers to be used when writing assignments depend on the instructions given by the instructor.
Most students are not able to write law papers.The students do not know various writing styles and how the papers are formatted.This contributes to low grades among the students.A large percentage of students taking law perform poorly as they do not know how to write law papers and format them.There are companies in the industry that help students write law papers.Though the companies offering law papers are many, the companies offering quality law papers are few.Most companies do not have the right qualifications to offer law papers. A company offering law papers should have various qualifications.
A company offering law papers should employ qualified writers.The writers should be able to write law papers for all academic levels.That is university, college and high school levels.Students from different institutions offer law papers.So, the company should attract all types of customers.The writers should be able to write quality law papers.
The writers should write law papers that have good grammar and that are not plagiarized.Plagiarism affects the quality of law papers and makes it difficulty for students to perform well.Students who submit plagiarized law papers are penalized and punished by the disciplinary body in the institutions.To avoid such incidents, the company should offer non plagiarized law papers.This will make it easy for students to buy law papers from the firm.
In addition,the firm should offer law papers at a cheaper cost.Most companies focus on making money, but not offering quality services.This forces the companies to offer law papers at a high cost.This has reduced the demand of law papers in these companies.A company should focus on offering law papers at a cheaper cost so as to enable each student in the institution to get law papers from the companies.The companies should target people from all walks of life so as to meet customer needs. Students buy law papers from companies that offer law papers at a cheaper cost.The company should maintain low prices so as to attract customers.
Additionally, the company should be able offer writing services day and night.Most companies offer writing services during the day and this makes it hard to serve many students.The company should schedule writing services to be carried during the day and others at night.This will give the company enough time to handle client requests and provide quality law papers. Also, a large number of students will purchase law papers from the company.
Lastly,a custom writing company should provide refund if it does not meet client requirements.Some companies do not provide refund in case they do not satisfy the clients.A good company should refund the client if he is not satisfied with the quality of the law papers.This will enable the company to retain clients and meet customer needs.

When divorcing parents come into court for a decision on parenting arrangements, judges in Maine base their decisions on the best interests of the child. While a judge will assess every situation individually, Maine law recognizes that it's generally good for children to have frequent contact with both parents and to have both parents participate in decision-making after divorce. Neither parent begins with any greater right to custody than the other. Judges making custody decisions can consider any factor relevant to parenting, and are guided by some factors that are set out in the state's laws—generally falling into the following basic categories:
The safety and well-being of a child is a court's primary concern, and although the law in Maine favors shared parental responsibility, the court won't order shared custody if it would be detrimental to the child. Evidence of domestic violence, child abuse, or a sexual offense may lead a judge to deny a parent contact with a child or order supervised contact. Also, if a parent lives with someone who has committed certain types of crimes, particularly sexual offenses, a judge may require supervision of any contact with that person, or prohibit overnight stays in the household.
The court also evaluates the strength of the relationship between the child and each parent, the motivation of each parent, and the ability of each parent to offer the child love and guidance. A judge who believes that a child is mature enough to make a meaningful choice may allow the child to state a preference as to custody.
Courts generally favor arrangements that maintain continuity and stability, including those that allow a child to stay in the same school and maintain important relationships. A court will consider how long the child has been in the current living arrangement as well as how long it's likely to continue into the future, and whether an alternate arrangement might be more stable.
While judges are not permitted to apply an automatic preference for either parent due to the parent's gender or the age or gender of the child, a judge may consider a child's age in assessing developmental needs. If a child is less than a year old and is still breast-feeding, the court will factor that into the custody decision.
Unless there is a compelling reason against it, courts in Maine expect parents to allow children frequent contact with the other parent, and place a strong emphasis on the ability and willingness of each parent to encourage a positive relationship between the child and the other parent. The court will assess each parent's ability to communicate and cooperate with the other parent regarding child care.
Parents with a poor co-parenting history may improve their chances of increasing their parental time and responsibility by demonstrating a willingness to learn to cooperate in the future. A court may also consider whether or not the parents have a method for resolving disputes that is likely to reduce the need for court intervention. The court is likely to consider a parent who has provided false evidence of domestic violence in an effort to interfere with the other parent's relationship with the child as unable to cooperate with the other parent.
The term "custody" includes both legal custody, which refers to making major decisions concerning a child's health, education, or general welfare; and physical custody, which refers to the child's primary physical residence with a parent. Parents have the opportunity to develop their own arrangements with respect to both legal and physical custody, and if they're not able to reach an agreement, the law in Maine requires them to attend mediation before they can schedule a contested court procedure. The court may appoint a parenting coordinator to assist the parents in developing a parenting plan.
When parents agree to share parental rights and responsibilities, a Maine court will order joint legal custody unless there is substantial evidence that it would not be in a child's best interests. A court may also allocate specific responsibilities between the parents, or may grant sole parental rights and responsibilities—sole legal custody—to one parent.
A judge who orders joint legal custody may also order joint physical custody, or may order that the child live primarily with one parent. Where one parent has sole physical custody, the other will be entitled to regularly scheduled contact with the child, unless the court determines that it would be contrary to the child's best interests. Shared physical custody does not necessarily mean a 50/50 time-share, and many different residential plans may be appropriate.

DraftKings Starting Pitchers
Chris Sale - P, vs OAK ($11,800)
Sale has been playing at a high level recently, scoring 40.7 and 37.6 DK points in his last two starts. In those games, he has allowed four earned runs, while striking out 27 batters in 16 innings. He gets a matchup against a boom or bust offense against the Oakland A's, and Sale is a -250 favorite in a game set at 8.5 runs.
Walker Buehler - P, at MIA ($8,500)
Buehler has looked outstanding through four starts, recording a 2-1 record, 1.64 ERA, and 1.00 WHIP. He has also recorded a dominant 11.1 K/9 in those games. He gets a great matchup against the Miami Marlins, who currently rank last on the slate in team wOBA. Buehler will also be throwing in a pitcher friendly stadium, and he is a -155 favorite in a game set at 7.5 runs.
DraftKings Infielders
Buster Posey - C, vs CIN ($3,900)
Posey has been on of the hottest players in the MLB over his last 10 games, recording a .400 average with a .525 slugging percentage and a .992 OPS over that span. He's also hitting .400 with an OPS north of 1.100 through 15 home games. He gets a good matchup against Matt Harvey, who has largely struggled this season, and Posey can be used in all leagues.
Brandon Belt - 1B, vs CIN ($4,000)
Belt continues to play well at home, hitting .333 with a .614 slugging percentage and a 1.063 OPS through 16 games in San Francisco. In those games, Belt has nine extra-base hits and 11 RBIs. He gets a great matchup against Matt Harvey, and Belt features 0.068 wOBA and 0.077 ISO differentials against righties. He can be used in all leagues tonight.
Asdrubal Cabrera - 2B, vs TOR ($3,800)
Cabrera has been playing at a high level the entire season. Overall, he is hitting .329 with 19 extra-base hits (six home runs) and 23 RBIs. He has been a consistent player on the New York Mets, and he gets a decent matchup against J.A. Happ. Cabrera has been a more consistent option against left-handed pitching, and he can be used in all leagues on this slate.
Daniel Descalso - 3B, vs MIL ($3,300)
Descalso is an extremely cheap option, who has been on fire over his last 10 games. Over that span, he's hitting .310 with a .586 slugging percentage and a 1.015 OPS. Overall, he has six extra-base hits and four RBIs in those games. He has also been a better hitter at home this season, and he's a great salary relief option in all leagues on this slate.
Paul DeJong - SS, at MIN ($3,900)
DeJong has performed well on the road this season, recording a .288 road average. He also has hit 75% of his home runs on the road this season. He has found ways to stay consistent over his last 10 games, and he gets a good matchup against Lance Lynn tonight. DeJong has been a slightly more consistent hitter against righties, and he can be considered in all leagues.
DraftKings Outfielders
Tommy Pham - OF, at MIN ($5,000)
Pham has been playing at a high level through 19 road games this season. In those games, he is hitting .329 with a .521 slugging percentage and a .951 OPS. He has also been seeing the ball well recently, recording a 70% hard-hit rate with a 97 mph exit velocity over the last 15 days. He gets a great matchup against Lance Lynn, and Pham can be used in all leagues.
Brett Gardner - OF, at WAS ($2,900)
Gardner comes with a low price tag because he gets a matchup against Max Schrezer. Still, Gardner is hitting .289, while averaging 9.8 fantasy points per game over his last 10 games. He also features 0.088 wOBA and 0.099 ISO differentials against right-handed pitching. Gardner should only be used in GPPs because of the matchup, but he's a great option for how well he has been playing.

Gary Fouse
If you don't know who Mary Robinson is, you should. This lady is a former president of Ireland (a ceremonial post-1990-1997) who was appointed by former UN Secretary General, the corrupt Kofi Annan, to be commissioner of the UN Office of the High Commission on Human Rights (1997-2002). Robinson is a critic of Israel and also the US-especially its military actions in the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan. Once, when asked if George W Bush should be prosecuted for war crimes, she opined that the matter was "premature" and should be studied by an independent body.
As UN high commissioner, Robinson oversaw the Durban Conference on Racism in 2001, which concentrated its fire on the state of Israel. Last year, President Obama awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Here is John Bolton's take on that in the Wall Street Journal.
One thing must be pointed out in fairness to Robinson. During a meeting at Durban, someone handed her a cartoon book full of anti-Semitic images which was being handed out to attendees at the registration table. When she saw it, she stood up and protested, declaring (rhetorically), "I am a Jew."
Yet, the entire conference that she ruled over was nothing but an exercise in bashing Israel, yet another in a long line of UN embarrassments. In my view, that conference should have been brought to an abrupt end by Robinson as soon as she saw that cartoon book.
So now (last year), our president awards this woman a medal. Doesn't that speak volumes about where his ideology lies?
So what ever became of Robinson? I'll give you one guess.
That's right. In 2004, she was given a teaching position at Columbia University, where she has lived happily ever after.

Did you know that the Library subscribes to Naxos Music Library? NML is a huge digital collection of streaming music files of classic recordings. Many years ago, I worked in a record store and became familiar with Naxos as a classical music label. While I love classical music, I was surprised this morning to do some digging in NML and find a number of other genres of interest. Here are a few highlights:
Blues – Howlin' Wolf, Robert Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy, Etta James, B.B. King, Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters, and others wailing through classics such as "Smokestack Lightnin," "Preaching the blues," "Spoonful," "Got my Mojo Working," "Dust My Broom," and more.
(See: Black History Month: Big Bill Broonzy: 'The Moppin' Blues,'" by Laura Millsaps, Ames Tribune, Dec. 17, 2010)
On NML, you can hear Big Bill sing "I Feel So Good," which features a rollicking piano, harmonica, and snappy drum work, with lots of friends screaming in the background. Just the track for a Friday morning at work pick me up!
Those of you who are fans like me of country blues, will of course want to give a listen to the sheer genius of Robert Johnson. Or if you're not sure what "country blues" means, give a listen to this gifted and legendary musician – his strong vocals, inventive guitar work, surprising syncopation, songwriting, and lyrics are all unparalleled. NML includes several of his classics, including "Preaching the Blues," "Little Queen of Spades," "Dust My Broom," "Come On in My Kitchen," "They're Red Hot," "Terraplane Blues," and "Last Fair Deal Gone Down."
Finding: Naxos Music Library allows you to select the songs you want to hear, select sound quality, share information via Twitter and Facebook (though I'm not sure if our Naxos settings support that), and even provides links for you to buy or download the files you want. NML has a Keyword Search box at the top of its page, but I'll recommend you use the Menu Bar instead and browse Genres, Artists, and so on. When I use the Keyword Search box for specific artists, my results are often off the mark.
Sometimes the Keyword Search box seems to work well, though. I searched American Indian there, and found a number of recordings including the wonderfully relaxing Spirit Wind: Native American Flute, by the Native Flute Ensemble. Listening to it now as I write!
You can also search by browsing through the Menu Bar links. One fruitful place to look through is the Genre link, where you'll see that NML includes Classical Music; Contemporary Jazz & Jazz; Folk Legends; Blues; "Nostalgia" (looks like a lot of Johnny Cash listed there, along with Duke Ellington, "timeless Country songs," brass bands, and lots of interesting miscellanea); World, and more.
The World genre alone has 184 fabulous pages of listings, including pages and pages of African music of all kinds – traditional, contemporary, choirs, and more – including a 3-volume series called African Rhythms and Instruments, with each volume including specific regions). Find something of interest, click the songs you want to listen to, and that's it! There's so much here, ranging from traditional songs from Afghanistan to Japanese music for the koto, the shamisen, and shakuhachi to Lebanese bellydance to Yiddish and Klezmer recordings, and basically music from ALL OVER the world – far too much for me to page through, particularly as my computer seems to have gone on strike at the moment. The standard entries seem to list the country or tradition first, as in "KURDISTAN Dursa Acar: Traditional and Contemporary Music of Kurdistan." So, you should be able to search a country or tradition of interest by using the Keyword Search box, and zip to the items of interest that way.
Naxos Music Library has something for everyone!
I'm a neophyte fan of Iranian / Persian classical music, and was so happy to find a recording called In a Persian Garden: The Santur – just the thing to listen to at work, when I'm busy writing and doing other computer-related work.
Tracks included on NML are "Dashti," "Shur," "Abu-Ata," "Afshari," and "Homayun." As with many of NML's recordings there's a link to a pdf booklet the provides helpful liner notes and information. A santur is a hammered dulcimer – give a listen to hear the amazingly beautiful, silvery cascades of sound that the musician, Nasser Rastegar-Nejad, magically produces. Niceto have these Booklet notes for noobs like me to learn more about this beautiful music!
Chinese music – Before I sign off, I also want to tell you a bit about the Chinese music section (listed as a Genre of its own) within Naxos Music Library. It's fantastic! A wide range of music is represented, including the wonderfully relaxing Butterfly Lovers Violin Concerto; Ding Shande's somber & triumphant Long March Symphony; chamber music, and primarily slick orchestral arrangements of Chinese "oldies" and Chinese pop. You can of course find lots of traditional Chinese music by looking through the Genres > World category. There you'll find wonderful records such as Ancient Art Music of China, Plucked Stringed Instrument Classics, and more.
So – how do you find or refer campus colleagues & students to Naxos Music Library? It's listed by name in the eLibrary's Article Indexes and Databases list. You'll be amazed by the breadth of music included there for your listening pleasure. Enjoy!!

Summer is almost here and, with it, will arrive more beautiful warm, sunny days. To most people these sunny days are the best times to take pictures of family and friends while visiting or taking the kids to a park. And while we all look forward to these bright, beautiful days (especially here in Seattle!) they can actually be your worst enemy when it comes to taking pictures outdoors. Why?
Direct sunlight, especially from above, creates harsh shadows. The human eye is able to process this wide dynamic range of light without too much but camera sensors (and film if you still use it) don't yet have the same ability to capture the details in these extreme conditions. This is why you'll get a lot of "raccoon eyes" when you take a picture with the sun directly overhead. With the brow bone doing its job to protect your eyes, the camera just can't handle such a wide range of light. And if you like to shoot land or cityscapes your images will look flat because direct overhead lighting takes away the contour and depth of the scene you're trying to capture.
The best outdoor condition for photography is overcast. The clouds evenly spread soft light across your subject and the landscape giving your camera an easier time of producing a nice image. But we can't always put off vacations or our kids' outdoor play dates until the clouds roll in. So what do you do to get great pictures on a sunny day?
Here are five tips that will improve your photography for the sunny summer ahead of us!
1. Look for Shade: Shade from a tree, building, or other structure provides beautiful, even lighting that your camera will be able to capture without a problem. And your subjects won't be battling to keep their eyes open in the glaring sun.
2. Use Your Flash: Sounds counter intuitive but what your flash will do is fill in the darker areas with added light so your camera can read the details in those areas. How well this works depends on the capabilities of your camera but even a little light can sometimes make a big difference.
3. Use a Reflector: You can go out and buy a professional reflector or simply use a sheet of white paper or some foam core. Just reflect the sun into the shadow side of your subject so your camera can get all the detail.
4. Over Expose Your Image: This will only work under certain circumstances. If you're not worried about what's in the background and only want to capture the faces or front side of your subjects, have them turn their backs to the sun and, if your camera allows it, overexpose the image by one or more stops. You would need to overexpose because your camera will most likely use the overwhelming background light to set the exposure leaving your subjects in the dark. By overexposing you're camera will allow in the necessary light to reveal your subjects.
5. Wait Until Sunrise or Sunset: Just avoid the overhead sun altogether! The lower the sun is, the better the light. It's softer and the horizontal direction reveals beautiful textures and colors in your subjects. This is especially true for landscapes. Nobody wants to get up early while on vacation but that's when you're going to get the best photos of magnificent landscapes and great city scenes. Plus you'll avoid the crowds of people waiting
There you go. You might want to try experimenting by combining two or more of these tips to get even better results. Like anything else new it might seem like too much of a hassle to go through these steps but stick with it and after a while it'll all be second nature and you'll have some beautiful memories to share with family and friends!
Got questions? Let me know and I'll be happy to give you some extra tips to improve your photos.
Until next time!

Dear theatre fans,
welcome to the official web site of Theatre Around the Corner (TAC), a Czech and Slovak community theatre in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
We hope that you'll find our pages informative and interesting and that you'll keep coming back. Thank you for your continuous interest and support.
Theatre Around the Corner
Last Production Was:
Jiří Brdečka
Limonádový Joe (Lemonade Joe)
Lemonade Joe, or the Horse Opera (Czech: ''Limonádový Joe aneb Koňská opera'') is a 1964 Czechoslovak acid western comedy film, directed by Oldřich Lipský and written by Jiří Brdečka, based on his novel and stage play. The film, a musical parody of old-time Westerns, enjoys a near-iconic status in the Czech Republic as well as a considerable cult following, and Henry Fonda was reportedly among its foreign admirers. The film was selected as the Czechoslovakia entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 37th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.
Perhaps less known fact is that Lemonade Joe was already presented by Theatre Around the Corner (TAC) once before. This was back in 1986 !! (see our List of Productions).
Three members of the original 1986 cast were back after 27 years - Vít Suchodol (was Lemonade Joe, now Hogofogo), Oldřich Paták (was Hogofogo, now ...) and Peter Bugar (was Doug Badman, now director). With them, you could see some other familiar faces but make no mistake, we had a significant help from many young newcomers, especially the cancan dancers !!
As always, we appreciate you coming to see our productions and we hope that Lemonade Joe brought a smile and a good time into your evening.
Thank you, yours truly,
Inlet Theatre, 100 Newport Drive
Port Moody, BC

Announcing event ~ Flavours of Singapore.
Singapore cuisine hosts a world of flavours,with its rich multicultural heritage, it portrays an array of local cuisines such as Chinese, Malay, Indian and Peranakan among others.

Bad Neighbours Movie Review | by tiffanyyong.com
Recommended Audience: Fans of Zac Efron, Dave Franco, Seth Rogen and Comedy movie fans
Bad Neighbours Synopsis
Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and Rose Byrne lead the cast of Neighbors (Bad Neighbours), a comedy about a young couple suffering from arrested development who are forced to live next to a fraternity house after the birth of their newborn baby. Night after night, Mac asks Teddy to lower the fraternity's noise, even accepting the invitation to the party one evening.
When Teddy goes back on his word to keep the partying down, Mac calls the police to deal with the problem. The police quickly blamed Mac for their presence, and the war begins. As the family feuds with the frat brothers, things get hilariously dangerous and the fraternity end ups on thin ice with their college. After receiving their final warning and being placed on probation, Mac and Kelly pull a prank so ingenious that Teddy and Mac are forced to respond.
Bad Neighbours Viewer Rating: 4.5/5 ****
Bad Neighbours Movie Review:
This is probably the best comedy of the year. And yes, Zac Efron, the girls drool, the guys envy. Oh and Dave Franco, I mistook him for his brother James Franco (I was telling my friend the guy in Bad Neighbours was the Harry Osborne in the Spiderman trilogy) and then started wondering why is he shorter than Zac Efron (Oops!). If you've watched the trailer, you will know why is the film hilarious, and guess what, those are NOT the only funny parts. I'm so glad that there were more than that (hint: the airbags; and you will know what I mean when you watch it.)
Yea, I know you'll think I'm biased for rating the movie so high because there's Zac Efron, which is true because I watched the movie BECAUSE of Zac Efron, but I did not come up with the rating. This rating was given by my MALE friend (and I seconded it), so I'm not rating it high because I'm a Zefron!
Zac Efron and Dave Franco
I paused for a moment to ponder on what I got to write for the duo. Heading the fraternity, Teddy (Zac Efron) and his deputy, Pete (Dave Franco) party for a living. Teddy somehow reminded me of Leonardo DiCaprio's in Wolf of Wallstreet, albeit a younger, milder version, with a body much hotter! Whereas Pete's the brain who stayed for brotherhood and besides the butt-showing scene, it was difficult for Dave Franco to perform much beside a charming Zac Efron. No worries, he's still charismatic in his own ways. The rest of the guys don't make much of an impression, ok fine, with exception of Christopher Mintz-Plasse (from Kick-Ass) as a minor sidekick, Jerrod Carmichael for his accidental waxing and Craig Roberts for his "honesty" which are enough to make me return to the cinemas again.
Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne
Seriously, if I'm to have a family next time, I hope my relationship with my husband will be like Mac and Kelly's. This pair of dream couple ain't perfect, but they are good together. They are new parents, still worried about the huge (baby) change in their life, and they still want to party now and then. Rather than the typical wife-who-says-no, Kelly is more of a go-getter, supportive of her spouse revenge schemes (some of them are hers in fact) which made the whole movie even more fun!
Family VS Frat
Neighbors (or Bad Neighbours) is a fairly simple plot without much depth to it, but I like how the film is honest, and sometimes, so ridiculous that you really hope this will happen in real life (perhaps not the dildo fight though). It reminded me of my college times, even though there weren't any fraternities to make life so interesting, but the crazy things I did with my friends, with the freshmen, the fear of losing all the stuff I was enjoying once I graduate… all these were just shown in such a refreshing way that somehow, it was reflective. I don't often hear the cinema filled with laughter for three quarter of the time, and being a skeptical person, this is one of the rare times where I had a nice laugh. With the entertaining finale (of Zac Efron and Seth Rogen), I don't mind watching the movie again and again. Oh, and the baby is cute too!
P.S. Trust me, although I love Zac Efron (and his pecs), it's not all his films that I want to watch again. This is one of the rare ones (besides HSM)
Do You Know?
Seth Rogen said that the baby eating the condom made him laugh till he cried.
Was originally titled Townies, but was changed to Neighbors.
On the day he was supposed to film his love scene, Dave Franco got a blemish on the butt and had to go to the make-up artist and asked if she would cover it with makeup.

[…] Yong: It takes a lot to amuse me, for example, while slapstick films like Bad Neighbours surprised me, the sequel Bad Neighbours 2: Sorority Rising was a disappointment. I had to say, […]
[…] loved Bad Neighbours in 2014. It was unexpectedly enjoyable as compared to Zac Efron's other films that year. So […]
I've planning to watch this this weekend.
I've seen this movie already and this is not good for kids though.
I also just watched the movie because of Zac Efron. Ever since I saw the trailer, I couldn't wait for the movie. But when I saw it, I was disappointed. I didn't like it 🙁
Love all the actors in this film, will definitely watch it as soon as it comes to cable. We're like the couple in the movie with a young kid. And hubby and I rarely watch movies in theaters. We always wait till the movies are available in cable.
i love this film! loved dave franco in it too
My idol Zac Efron did his best for this movie and I liked his boyish acting.
It seems funny movie, but may be I would like to give the ratings 3/5..
I can imagine how this movie would be funny. Also including Zac Efron was a pretty smart move to attract more viewers! Haha! I will probably watch this movie too! 😀
Loved Dave Franco in "Now you See This" and another chance to watch him here. Yay! Not a fan of Zac, but nevermind, the story looks good to watch with the girlfriends. Omg the airbags!
Thanks for the review. I have been hearing about this movie but yet to watch. It is no longer on big screen in Malaysia now. Need to watch online.
I am willing to watch the movie if I could get some time from my busy work schedule.
I love Zac Efron, he is so cute and charming and the movie Bad neighbours seems like so much fun. I like such kind of movies because they make me just sit back and relax, and laugh.
The movie has a simple plot but it looks like it has loads of laughter. I'll try to check this out.
On a friday, I like to destress by watching a good comedy movie… so I am starting the coming weekend with this one !
I wanted to watch the movie because of Zac too! I've been hearing reviews about it saying that this has to be one Zac's best movies after HSM. Looking forward to more laughter when I watch it!
They did not show this movie in my country so I haven't seen it yet. Your rating is do high!
Good or bad, neighbor is very important for us… Great movie!
Hmm, not really my kind of movie. But I may just pop by the cinema to catch it if I have spare time!
I love Zac efron too eversince the movie highschool musical! I'll definitely add this to my Movie list-kaycee

The Vermont man awarded a six-figure settlement after high-profile allegations of police misconduct is facing new criminal charges in an unrelated case.
Michael Mullen, 26, of Richmond, appeared in court Tuesday in Rutland to face marijuana and cocaine possession charges.
The Rutland Police Department said a traffic stop July 15 for a missing license plate led to a drug dog sniffing out evidence that led to Mullen's arrest for pot, cocaine, and crack cocaine possession.
The latest news from around the state
Rutland officers said the canine alerted them to $599 in currency, and subsequent searches resulted in the discovery of drug evidence in baggies.
Defense attorney Jim Gratton entered pleas of not guilty on Mullen's behalf to felony charges of marijuana and cocaine possession, and a misdemeanor charge of operating a vehicle with a suspended license.
It was recently announced that Mullen was awarded $100,000 to settle a claim of improper behavior by a police officer in Burlington in a different drug case.
In February, body camera footage from former Burlington Police Department officer Christopher Lopez revealed Lopez telling a colleague during an October 2016 traffic stop that he did not smell marijuana in Mullen's car.
Lopez later claimed in an affidavit that he did smell pot, apparently trying to strengthen his case into drugs that other investigators later said really were in the vehicle.
Chittenden County State's Attorney Sarah George blasted Lopez's claim as a lie, which she said made the cop an unreliable witness at trial.
George said in February she was forced to toss the case against Mullen and other drug suspects whom Lopez investigated.
The officer quit the force amid intense scrutiny.
Mullen settled with the city of Burlington for $100,000, attorney David Bond said earlier this month, after a lawsuit was filed alleging Lopez violated Mullen's rights.
Mullen spent several months in jail before the body camera footage revealed conduct that led to the dismissal of charges.
A separate investigation was launched in the office of the Vermont Attorney General into whether Lopez's actions were criminal. However, there have been no recent updates to the media about the status of that investigation.
"He just wasted a really great opportunity," Chittenden County State's Attorney Sarah George said Tuesday, adding she wishes Mullen would've taken that big payout and the dismissal of charges in her county as a lucky wake-up call to get his life moving in a more positive direction.
"He was in a really good place to go down a different route, and he didn't do that," George continued. "And I think it's insulting. It's insulting to the criminal justice system and insulting to all Vermonters."
At his arraignment Tuesday on the new charges in Rutland County, prosecutor Steven Zwicky informed the judge of a lengthy criminal record for Mullen, which Zwicky said included past drug offenses and past situations that made Mullen a potential risk to not appear for future court dates.
Weighing that argument, and the defense's view that Mullen is unlikely to skip out on court, Judge Cortland Corsones said Mullen could be released on a 24-7 curfew, if he posts $25,000 bail.

For a free consultation about recovering financial losses after being mis-sold an Enterprise Finance Guarantee loan, call Slater and Gordon Lawyers on freephone 0808 175 8000 or contact us online.
Group Litigation Lawyers at Slater and Gordon UK are investigating legal routes to recover financial losses for investors who have been potentially mis-sold the Enterprise Finance Guarantee provided to small businesses in the UK.
On 15th January 2015, RBS announced that they are to review the way in which the Enterprise Finance Guarantee was provided to UK businesses.
Enterprise Finance Guarantee (EFG) is a UK Government lending initiative for small businesses with viable business proposals but who lack security for conventional lending.
RBS provided over 8,000 Enterprise Finance Guarantee loans to businesses in the UK and after discussions with the British Business Bank (BBB). They recognise that for a number of clients, the way in which the loan operated was not properly explained; especially with respect to how the borrower and guarantor liabilities work under the EFG scheme.
Due to the serious nature of these allegations it is reported that the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) are considering a criminal investigation.
RBS claim to be putting these matters right and putting any customers affected back in the position that they would have been in, had the EFG been properly been explained.
If you suspect you were mis-sold an Enterprise Finance Guarantee loan call Slater and Gordon Lawyers 24/7 on freephone 0808 175 8000 or contact us and we will call you.

Microsoft Windows: A new server option,
--slow-start-timeout, controls the Windows service control manager's service start timeout. The value is the maximum number of milliseconds that the service control manager waits before trying to kill the MySQL service during startup. The default value is 15000 (15 seconds). If the MySQL service takes too long to start, you may need to increase this value. A value of 0 means there is no timeout. (Bug #45546, Bug #11754011)
Important Change; Replication: Setting an empty user in a
CHANGE MASTER TOstatement caused an invalid internal result and is no longer permitted. Trying to use
MASTER_USER=''or setting
MASTER_PASSWORDwhile leaving
MASTER_USERunset causes the statement to fail with an error. (Bug #13427949)
Important Change; Replication: Moving the binary log file, relay log file, or both files to a new location, then restarting the server with a new value for
--relay-log, or both, caused the server to abort on start. This was because the entries in the index file overrode the new location. In addition, paths were calculated relative to datadir (rather than to the
The fix for this problem means that, when the server reads an entry from the index file, it now checks whether the entry contains a relative path. If it does, the relative part of the path is replaced with the absolute path set using the
--relay-logoption. An absolute path remains unchanged; in such a case, the index must be edited manually to enable the new path or paths to be used. (Bug #11745230, Bug #12133)
Performance; InnoDB: This fix improved the efficiency and concurrency of freeing pages in the
InnoDBbuffer pool when performing a
DROP TABLEfor an
InnoDBtable when the
innodb_file_per_tableoption is enabled.
This change is most noticeable for systems with large buffer pools. During the drop operation, one traversal of the buffer pool memory structure is changed from the LRU list (the entire buffer pool) to the flush list (a much smaller structure). The LRU scanning is reduced, but not entirely eliminated. The buffer pool mutex is also released periodically, so that if the drop operation takes significant time, other threads can proceed concurrently. (Bug #11759044, Bug #51325)
InnoDB: When doing a live downgrade from MySQL 5.6.4 or later, with
innodb_page_sizeset to a value other than 16384, now the earlier MySQL version reports that the page size is incompatible with the older version, rather than crashing or displaying a "corruption" error. (Bug #13116225)
InnoDB: Certain
CREATE TABLEstatements could fail for
InnoDBchild tables containing foreign key definitions. This problem affected Windows systems only, with the setting
lower_case_table_names=0. It was a regression from MySQL bug #55222. (Bug #13083023, Bug #60229)
InnoDB: Issuing
INSERT...ON DUPLICATE KEYstatements for
InnoDBtables from concurrent threads could cause a deadlock, particularly with the
INSERT...ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATEform. The problem could also be triggered by issuing multiple
INSERT IGNOREstatements. The fix avoids deadlocks caused by the same row being accessed by more than one transaction. Deadlocks could still occur when multiple rows are inserted and updated simultaneously by different transactions in inconsistent order; those types of deadlocks require the standard error handling on the application side, of re-trying the transaction. (Bug #11759688, Bug #52020, Bug #12842206)
An incorrect
InnoDBassertion could cause the server to halt. This issue only affected debug builds. The assertion referenced the source file
btr0pcur.icand the variable
cursor->pos_state. (Bug #13358468)
LOAD INDEX INTO CACHEcould cause a server exit if the index cache was too small. (Bug #12361113)
Locale information for
FORMAT()function instances was lost in view definitions. (Bug #63020, Bug #13344643)
handle_segfault()signal-handler code in mysqld could itself crash due to calling unsafe functions. (Bug #54082, Bug #11761576)
myisam_use_mmapcould cause the server to crash. (Bug #48726, Bug #11756764)
Concurrent access to
