Children have a faith that's ready to go. So let's not waste that opportunity by delivering a mere morality tale in Sunday school and children's church. We need to share the Gospel message and Gospel Truth.
Children's ministry workers talk a lot about contextualization. How do we share the eternal truth of God in specific locations for people who share a specific experience? But the Gospel does not change. So the message should remain the same, even as we adjust methods for effective communication.
How well do we proclaim the Gospel to children? Are we just relaying a morality tale or important truth? I'm not asking how well we teach Bible stories or the timeless truths of Scripture. Are we contextualizing our Gospel communication for children as well as we are for hipsters in Brooklyn or tribes in Tanzania?
The Bible Goes Far Beyond Morality Tale
Too often we teach the Bible as one morality tale after another, like Aesop's Fables. We want children to learn how to live well. So we draw from the Bible stories of people who did the right or wrong thing.
We hope kids get the idea that good is of God, leading to success, and bad is of Satan, leading to failure. If kiddos can then live out a morality tale and retell the story with the right names and main points, we feel as if they have a grasp on the Gospel.
Churches have told children tons of good stories. But have we told them the Story?
It's easy to tell the stories within the story. Yet a big picture exists too. When we offer a slice of the Gospel as if it's the whole pie, we miss important points.
I think about it this way. This huge story has basically four major acts: Creation, Fall, Redemption, Restoration. I teach these at my church, and you might too. But how do you teach them to children?
I'm a father of three daughters. The reality is I don't want them to know just one part of God's big story. He's given us His Word that tells of His grand and awesome plan, from the first verse to the last. I want my kids to know the Truth, not just a morality tale or two.
The Gospel Is About What God Is Doing
If we just take the Bible in isolated parts, we miss the flow of God. And the flow is important to understanding that the Gospel isn't just a group of ideas. Rather, it's a plan that a loving God designed and implemented to save humans.
Ideas aren't as personal as a plan. The plan runs the length of Scripture. So, for example, we hear Jesus say in 1 Corinthians 11, "This cup is the New Covenant in My blood. Do this as often as you drink it in remembrance of Me."

The Stick-Fire Grate, June 2017
Paul Mobbs & MEIR:
'The Stick-Fire Cooking Grate'
Cooking outdoors is a fun skill to learn to expand your ecological awareness and personal resilience. Problem is, where do you find the 'ecologically sound'/fossil-fuel free kit to do it? The Free Range Stick-Fire Cooking Grate is a small, light-weight, cooking trivet designed to burn small sticks which, with a few tools and components, you can easily build yourself.
My natural environment!
Camp cook at the Free Range
Weekend, Wales, 2008
Every now and again I get to combine work with my favourite past-time: being outdoors in the countryside. This project went one better as I was also able to employ my engineering design skills too!
The 'The Stick-Fire Cooking Grate' project, produced with the Free Range Network, arose out of discussion on eliminating fossil fuels from camping. In particular at festivals, which I often spend time at during the Summer giving workshops.
It is possible to buy wood-fuelled fire grates, but as a 'rare' kind of item they can be expensive. This project sought to find a cheaper way of solving the problem of eliminating fossil-fuels from camping.
I stopped gas and petrol in my own camping activities almost a decade ago, using stick-fires and a home-made trivet. The Free Range Network asked if I could make one for them; I believed we could think a little more strategically than that.
The project began by working-out how to produce a set of instructions for making a similar design, using either bought materials or – preferably – scrap materials. Either way, the aim was to get people to 'do it themselves' in order to teach some practical skills of 'making', in addition to the central aim of using fires.
The project began in 2016 with the production of two grates: A light-weight, one person grate, suitable for camping and backpacking, which would take two small saucepans (pictured at the top of the page/below); and, a heavier grate suitable for group camping at a festival which would take larger saucepans (this part of the project has not been documented yet).
The outputs from the project were:
- A set of instructions for how to build and use the grate;
- An on-line video illustrating making and using the grate;
- Carbon, Campfires, Cooking & English Land Rights, an A3 poster about the Stick-Fire Grate project and English land rights – for use in displays/exhibitions; and
- A website which provides access to the design information, and a greater amount of background information on using the grate and the law on outdoor access and cooking over fires.
Thus far the project has proved quite successful, with some good feedback. As a result the Free Range Network are going ahead and promoting it as part of a wider 'Wild Camping' initiative, combining the use of lightweight backpacking with ecopsychology to teach low impact living skills.

About Us
Since 1989
In 1988, Jeff and Greg Danz had a dream. They would open a store that they would want to shop. So they bought an empty turn of the century building in the heart of downtown Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The brothers spent a year restoring the building and developing the concept for what would become Zandbroz Variety. When the doors opened in May of 1989, Zandbroz was a bookstore with an eclectic mix of other inventory, an old fashioned soda fountain and coffee bar. The store was a hit and a couple of years later a second location was opened in Fargo, ND. Zandbroz Variety started in a world before Barnes and Noble, Starbucks and internet shopping were part of the landscape. That of course all changed and so too Zandbroz has evolved and changed –THIRTY years later and we are still here!

Menlo launches freight brokerage service in Europe
[ March 13, 2014 // Chris ]Menlo launches freight brokerage service in Europe
Menlo is bringing its Freight Brokerage service to Europe, bringing a style of 3PL warehousing and supply chain management services already very common in North America to the UK and Continent. It offers what it describes as cost-effective multimodal transportation booking and management solutions for commercial and industrial businesses throughout Europe.
A team of experienced transport managers is based at Menlo's European headquarters in Amsterdam and the concept has undergone a year of preparation and trial operation before being launched.
"Menlo has operated a successful and growing freight brokerage operation in North America since 2007 under our sister company, Con-way Multimodal," says managing director for Menlo Logistics in Europe,Tony Gunn. "We are confident that our philosophy of reducing cost and minimising waste in the freight transport process will appeal to the European market for freight brokerage services. The test strategy we have employed over the past twelve months has validated this approach and we are very pleased with the up-take from a wide range of customers."
The nascent European Freight Brokerage operation is now managing over five hundred shipments per month across all types of freight and modes of transport including; truckloads, parcels, groupage, full containers and LCL, air freight and ocean shipments.Most volume has been intra-Europe but Asian and North American destined cargo has also been handled.
Menlo says it has access to around 11,000 transport providers – road hauliers and multimodal operators – and he believes that the concept is ready to take off in Europe. "We already have a very large freight brokerage operation in North America," he told FBJ. "But the European market is still very fragmented and the concept has been slow to take off." Europe's many language and national boundaries have probably impeded progress.

The past few years have seen the adoption of medical technology accelerate at an unprecedented pace. It seems like every week, we hear of a new company or product that is revolutionizing the way we diagnose and treat disease. And while it's still early in the game, we believe this revolution will have a profound impact on the way we treat disease in the future. Let's explore the four transformational technologies we will see used to change the way we diagnose and treat disease in the future and how you can start using them today.
Medical Device
Technology Medical device technology is the use of technology to improve the efficiency and accuracy of medical treatments. This can include everything from surgically removing tumors to providing real-time information on heart health. Medical device technology is already being used to diagnose and treat a variety of diseases, and there are many potential applications for it in the future. One potential application is in the treatment of cancer. By using medical device technology, we can more accurately detect the early signs of cancer and potentially treat it before it progresses. Additionally, medical device technology can help us prevent other types of diseases from becoming severe, such as heart disease or stroke. Another potential application for medical device technology is in the treatment of diabetes. By detecting problems with blood sugar levels early, we can help to prevent or treat diabetesrelated complications. And finally, medical device technology could one day be used to provide real-time information on heart health. This would allow users to make better decisions about their health and keep track of their progress against specific goals.
Computer-Assisted Medical Transcription
Computer-assisted medical transcription (CAMT) is a technology that allows computers to read and understand medical transcripts. This technology has the potential to revolutionize the way we treat disease by allowing doctors to communicate with patients in a more efficient and accurate way. This technology could also be used to save lives by allowing doctors to diagnose and treat diseases before they reach a point of serious injury or death.
Software-Based Medical Record
The software-based medical record (SBMR) is a technology that allows doctors to store and access patient data in a secure, encrypted format. This will revolutionize the way we diagnose and treat disease. With SBMR, we won't need to go to the hospital, wait days or even weeks for a doctor to see the results of an investigation, and then have to wait months or even years for a new treatment option to come through. SBMR will also make it easier for us to track our patients' health over time. We can now see how many visits, tests, and prescriptions our patients have been on, how often they are sick, and what medications they are taking. This will help us better understand our patients' risk for developing disease and make more informed decisions about their care.
Data-Based Treatment
One of the most important changes that will happen in the future is the adoption of data-based treatments. This refers to treatments that rely on data to recommend or prescribe the best course of action for a patient. By using data to recommend treatments, we can drastically reduce side effects and improve outcomes. For example, one company is developing a therapy that uses MRI scan images to recommend the best course of action for a patient with leukemia. The company's aim is to use MRI scan images as an early warning system to suggest courses of action before patients reach a point where they might experience side effects from the treatment. MRI scan images are also being used to recommend treatments for conditions like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. By using data to recommend treatments, we can make sure that people receive the best possible care.
Medical technology has rapidly evolved and continues to grow in popularity. In this rapidly changing field, there are many innovative medical technology companies that are seeking to take the lead. Some of the most promising and innovative medical technology companies include: 1. Medtronic 2. Philips Semiconductors 3. Abbott Laboratories 4.Boston Scientific

Has Gary McSheffrey put his own stamp on Doncaster Rovers?
Rovers have won five league games and lost 11 since McSheffrey replaced Richie Wellens at the helm in early December.
They travel to AFC Wimbledon today for a game with huge ramifications on the battle for survival in League One.
Hide AdAdvertisement
Hide AdMcSheffrey is fully aware that results over the next few weeks are likely to make or break Rovers' attempts to clambour to safety.
The 39-year-old does not have time on his side as he looks to pull off a sensational relegation escape act in his first senior management role.
But, looking at the bigger picture, McSheffrey admits it will take him time to get Rovers playing exactly the way he wants them to.
"There's a good number of players out there playing that we've managed to add since I came in," he said, reflecting on his time in charge.
Hide AdAdvertisement
Hide Ad"And there's a good core of lads that I've inherited that are definitely to the standard and are good players.
"We've definitely stamped some authority on our out of possession stuff. The non-negotiables. Trying to be harder to beat.
"In possession we still need to do more.
"But with the hectic games programme that we had it was difficult to implement any kind of patterns of play or how you set up because we've chopped and changed formation as well.
"A lot of emphasis has been on trying to stop losing games and conceding goals.
Hide AdAdvertisement
Hide Ad"It's worked to a degree in some games and in some games it hasn't. Some teams have just had that little bit too much quality for us.
"There's still lots more to do but we need a bit of time for that."
Rovers are four points from safety but that gap could be reduced to one point if they win at Plough Lane today.
They have no midweek games in March and face four bottom half teams: Cheltenham Town (a), Gillingham (H), Fleetwood Town (a) and Charlton Athletic (H).

Retired physician Richard Taylor made local hospital provision the central issue of his general election campaign in Wyre Forest, in the west Midlands. Taylor, who stood as a candidate for "Independent Kidderminster Hospital and Health Concern", successfully overturned a 7,000 Labour majority, to become only the second independent MP elected to Westminster since 1945. Until 1997, Wyre Forest had been a safe Conservative seat.
The vote for Taylor expresses the widespread hostility to Labour's continuation of Tory healthcare policies. But his programme was aimed at attracting a protest vote, and does not address the crucial political issues involved, nor does it offer any way forward for those who want to defend the right to free and universal healthcare.
Opposition to local hospital closures in the Wyre Forest constituency, and particularly in the town of Kidderminster, has mounted over the last few years. By 1997-98, inadequate funding left Worcestershire local health services with an accumulated debt of £15 million and an estimated annual deficit of £9 million.
The Health Authority's response was to cut beds in each of the three hospitals under its control. The money saved was to go towards funding a replacement—built under the government's Private Finance Initiative (PFI)—for two of the region's hospitals. Initiated by the Tories but greatly expanded under Labour, PFI amounts to backdoor privatisation.
Worcestershire's new hospital was to be built, financed and operated by a private sector consortium, but it turned out to be vastly more expensive than expected. This led to further cuts, closures and the centralisation of resources from other healthcare services. An additional 214 acute beds at Kidderminster hospital were slated for closure. The hospital was to be downgraded into an ambulatory care and diagnostics facility (Acad), only offering day surgery and outpatient care. Patients in Kidderminster requiring emergency services and intensive care would have to travel 18 miles to the nearest unit, despite the fact that a new wing, with up to date operating theatres, wards, an intensive care unit and outpatient accommodation, had only just been completed in the town's hospital in 1995.
The new smaller replacement hospital would have to service a catchment area that now included 380,000 residents, rather than the 280,000 previously. This meant that the provision of National Health Service (NHS) beds in Kidderminster would fall to 41 percent of the current average when the new PFI hospital opens. There will be 17 percent fewer nurses and 32 percent fewer ancillary workers.
When news of the planned cuts emerged, local people were outraged. Demonstrations and marches attracting up to 12,000 people were held. Several petitions with more than 500,000 signatures were collected. Some 500 people went to Downing Street to try to persuade Prime Minister Tony Blair to reverse the decision, but nothing happened.
With neither the local Labour Party nor the trade unions prepared to mobilise any action to defend health services, local people set up a hospital campaigning group, Health Concern. It fielded candidates in the District Council elections in 1999 and 2000. Winning 19 seats, Health Concern seized control of the council from Labour, and now forms the largest group in the ruling "Rainbow" alliance with the Conservatives. It also has four seats on the county council.
When Kidderminster hospital closed in September last year, Richard Taylor, a leader of the Health Concern campaign, decided to contest the general election in his local constituency. He stood against the sitting Labour MP David Lock, a junior minister at the Lord Chancellor's office.
But whilst Taylor ran against Tory and Labour candidates, his policies are by no means opposed to the three main parties. On Europe and defence, Dr Taylor's views are similar to the Tories. His candidacy received the tacit backing of the Liberal Democrats, who decided not to contest the election. This meant that Dr Taylor could rely on votes that would have gone to the Liberal Democrats, many of whose supporters had voted tactically for Labour in 1997 to unseat the Conservative candidate.
Whilst opposing Labour's policy of privatising the NHS by stealth, Dr Taylor said he accepted "some form of rationing of some parts of healthcare, so that the aim of 'cradle to grave' care can continue to be possible for those who need it".
On the question of funding, he called for the earmarking a proportion of income tax for the NHS, but "extra resources would not be released to health service providers unless their services were shown to be operating at peak efficiency without the gross waste and stupidity that occurs in the NHS now".
While Dr Taylor's candidacy was seen by many as a means of protesting against government policy in an area of vital public provision, his programme accepts the argument of the Tory and Labour parties that health care must be run along market lines.
This is the same basis for government arguments that treatment considered "non-essential", or the outcome of "lifestyle" choices, should not be provided by the NHS. Moreover, those deemed able to pay for their own health care should do so, supposedly in order to "free up" resources for the less fortunate. It is the same rationale that is now being used to justify turning large swathes of the public sector over to private capital.
The lack of financial resources for public services has been presented as an entirely natural development. In reality, it is intimately bound up with the free-market offensive unleashed against the working class all over the world over the last 25 years.
So-called healthcare reforms—such as the introduction of the market into hospitals, encouraging competition between facilities, creeping privatisation, the outsourcing of "non-core" services, hospital and ward closures, and user charges—are being introduced by all governments at the behest of the financial markets and giant corporations.
For big business, the use of taxes for the provision of universal public services is an unwelcome infringement on their profit margins. Thus, whilst corporation tax and income taxes for the super-rich in the UK have been systematically lowered over the last years, public spending has been slashed. Where services cannot be entirely dismantled for political reasons, then they are being turned over to the private sector to provide a new source of profit.
The Health Concern pressure group does not have a programme to oppose this. Indeed Dr Taylor has accepted that, despite widespread opposition, the decision on the closure of the Kidderminster hospital will not be reversed. "I am a realist", he says, "I have been very careful not to make any promises over what I can actually achieve".
Dr Taylor's candidacy is similar to that of former BBC television reporter Martin Bell, who stood in the 1997 general election on an "anti-sleaze" ticket against Conservative MP Neil Hamilton, disgraced for accepting money for asking parliamentary questions. At a time of general revulsion against the Tories, and with the backing of Labour and the Liberal Democrats who withdrew their own candidates, Bell's high profile campaign as a "clean broom" won him the seat. But his success did not cause any major upset; much less stop the political monopolisation of social policy by big business and its representatives. In the 2001 general election, Bell transferred his campaign to Brentwood and Ongar, but failed to win the safe Conservative constituency.
The Wyre Forest vote highlights the limitations of single-issue politics. The problems exposed by the Health Concern campaign are not confined to Kidderminster, nor only to health care. New Labour is similarly targeting the provision of education, social services, housing, and public transport—to name but a few—for privatisation.
Opposition to the attacks on healthcare cannot be conducted in isolation. Rather, it must be part of a mass, politically conscious movement that seeks to defend the social and democratic gains of working people by subordinating the profit system to the needs and requirements of the broad mass of society.
In contrast, the only purpose of the Health Concern campaign is to try and exert pressure on the government to soften its stance. But the Blair government has openly stated its intent to deepen the attack on public spending. Prior to the election, Labour announced that it wanted more public services to be provided by the private sector, particularly in health and education. Labour's manifesto promised that private contractors could manage some of the 20 fast-track diagnosis and surgery centres that are planned for the health service. It calls for "successful" NHS hospitals to take over "failing" ones—an approach that has already begun in schools—as part of a "spirit of enterprise" in the public sector.
Labour has just rushed through new legislation allowing family doctors and the local health authorities to form commercial ventures with private healthcare organisations, and set up new one-stop primary care centres that would include pharmacy, dental and some social services all at a single location. For the first time, NHS family doctors will be able to charge for some services. A recent survey of nurses revealed that one third believed that within a decade the NHS would no longer be free at the point of use.

…. lampoon Chinese firm (CCECC) for EXECUTING substandard project
….demand strick compliance to Bill Of Quantity and govt specifications
The umbrella body of all Ogoni youths known as Ogoni Youth Federation (OYF) has criticized the contractors handling the construction of the Bori-Kono road, the Chinese Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) for executing a substandard job by allegedly compromising the Bill of Quality (BOQ) and the Rivers State specifications for the job.
President-General of OYF, LEGBORSI YAMAABANA, who made this known today after a follow-up visit to the office of CCECC, said the visit was prompted by series of complaints from members of the community, close to the site.
He disclosed that the natives wept over the shabby construction and loss of their farm produce to flooding, whenever it rains due to the ongoing construction.
YAMAABANA said that he confirmed the development during his fact finding visit to the Bori-Kono road site on 5th December, 2021.
The Ogoni youths President observed that the road being constructed has no drainage system on both sides and as a result, whenever it rains, the entire communities along the road are usually submerged in flood and crops destroyed, thereby leaving the Ogoni people in untold hardship.
He queried the rationale behind CCECC to cut corners and jettison the BOQ for the road, inorder to make more profit at the detriment of the people.
"They deliberately, for reasons best known to the company, failed to excavate the top soil and replace same with sharp sand on one lane of the road, before the application of stone based, bitumen and asphate as practiced globally.
"They are using red mud on the said lane instead of sharp sand, amongst other sharp practices. This is not acceptable to Ogoni youths.
The project manager of the Chinese Civil Engineering Corporation, who received the delegation declined to comment on the issues and referred the youth to the State Ministry of Works for answers, insisting that the Rivers State Ministry of works should be held response for poor construction and not the CCECC".
A statement signed by the Publicity Secretary of OYF, LENE KINGSLEY LEKUE and made available to BraveViews indicates that upon arrival from the botched meeting with the CCECC site Manager, the President-General of Ogoni Youth Federation met the Ogoni Association of Persons Living With Disabilities at the gate of the firm protesting against CCECC over non compliance with Corporate Social Responsibility.

The youth leader enjoined Ogoni youths to stay calm in the face of the wanton provocation, as he promised to explore other channels to win the sabotage by CCECC and their institutional collaborators.

From 'depression' to 'HIV,' we observed popular overall health applications sharing potential overall health fears and consumer identifiers with dozens of advertisement businesses
Fb has been caught obtaining patient info from clinic web-sites by means of its tracker software. Google suppliers our wellbeing-linked world wide web queries. Mental health applications leave place in their privateness guidelines to share info with unlisted third parties. Buyers have few protections underneath the Wellness Insurance policy Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) when it arrives to digital information, and well known wellbeing applications share info with a broad assortment of advertisers, in accordance to our investigation.
Most of the information being shared doesn't right recognize us. For case in point, applications may possibly share a string of quantities referred to as an "identifier" that is connected to our telephones relatively than our names. Not all the recipients of this information are in the advertisement business — some present analytics showing builders how end users shift about their apps. And companies argue that sharing which internet pages you check out, this kind of as a web site titled "depression," isn't the identical as revealing sensitive wellbeing issues.
But privacy specialists say sending user identifiers along with crucial words and phrases from the material we stop by opens buyers to avoidable hazard. Significant knowledge collectors these kinds of as brokers or advert companies could piece alongside one another someone's actions or fears working with many parts of facts or identifiers. That suggests "depression" could become one a lot more facts level that can help corporations focus on or profile us.
To give you a sense of the info sharing that goes on at the rear of the scenes, The Washington Submit enlisted the assist of a number of privateness authorities and corporations, including researchers at DuckDuckGo, which would make a wide variety of on the web privacy tools. Just after their results were shared with us, we independently verified their promises employing a resource termed mitmproxy, which permitted us to watch the contents of internet targeted visitors.
What we realized was that quite a few popular Android wellbeing applications such as Medicine.com Medicine Tutorial, WebMD: Symptom Checker and Period Calendar Interval Tracker gave advertisers the details they'd have to have to industry to individuals or teams of customers centered on their overall health worries.
The Medication.com Android app, for case in point, sent data to much more than 100 outside entities such as advertising firms, DuckDuckGo explained. Phrases inside those people data transfers included "herpes," "HIV," "adderall" (a drug to handle notice-deficit/hyperactivity disorder), "diabetes" and "pregnancy." These keywords and phrases arrived alongside gadget identifiers, which increase concerns about privacy and concentrating on.
Medication.com reported it is not transmitting any facts that counts as "sensitive private information" and that its ads are related to the page content, not to the individual viewing that web page. When The Publish pointed out that in one particular scenario Prescription drugs.com appeared to mail an exterior organization the user's initially and final identify — a wrong identify DuckDuckGo applied for its screening — it mentioned that it by no means meant for buyers to enter their names into the "profile name" industry and that it will quit transmitting the contents of that field.
Between the phrases WebMD shared with advertising companies along with person identifiers were "addiction" and "depression," in accordance to DuckDuckGo. WebMD declined to comment.
Interval Calendar shared details which includes identifiers with dozens of exterior companies such as advertisers, in accordance to our investigation. The developer did not answer to requests for remark.
What goes on at the advertisement companies them selves is usually a mystery. But ID5, an adtech organization that been given data from WebMD, reported its career is to make person IDs that assist apps make their advertising and marketing "more precious."
"Our job is to identify clients, not to know who they are," ID5 co-founder and CEO Mathieu Roche claimed.
Jean-Christophe Peube, executive vice president at adtech enterprise Clever, which has due to the fact obtained two other adtech firms and rebranded to Equativ, said the information that it gets from Medication.com can be applied to set customers into "interest categories."
Peube mentioned in a assertion shared with The Submit that interest-centered advertisement focusing on is improved for privacy than working with technological know-how like cookies to focus on men and women. But some customers might not want their well being concerns made use of for advertising and marketing at all.
Being aware of you by a amount or curiosity team somewhat than a name wouldn't stop advertisers from concentrating on men and women with certain health and fitness problems or conditions, said Pam Dixon, government director of nonprofit investigation group Earth Privacy Discussion board.
How we can shield our health and fitness info
We consent to these apps' privateness techniques when we take their privateness guidelines. But couple of of us have time to wade through the legalese, says Andrew Crawford, senior counsel at the Center for Democracy and Technologies.
"We click by promptly and accept 'agree' without the need of genuinely thinking about the downstream opportunity trade-offs," he said.
People trade-offs could get a few varieties, like our details landing in the fingers of information sellers, employers, insurers, authentic estate agents, credit granters or law enforcement, privacy industry experts say.
Even modest bits of info can be merged to infer big factors about our lives, claims Lee Tien, a senior staff attorney at the privateness business Digital Frontier Basis. These tidbits are termed proxy knowledge, and much more than a ten years in the past, they aided Concentrate on figure out which of its customers had been pregnant by searching at who purchased unscented lotion.
"It's very, really straightforward to identify persons if you have sufficient details," Tien explained. "A good deal of situations corporations will convey to you, 'Well, which is accurate, but no person has all the facts.' We you should not essentially know how substantially facts businesses have."
Some lawmakers are attempting to rein in wellbeing information sharing. California Point out Assembly member Rebecca Bauer-Kahan introduced a monthly bill in February that could redefine "medical information" in the state's medical privacy regulation to include info collected by mental well being apps. Among the other points, this would prohibit the apps from utilizing "a consumer's inferred or identified psychological wellbeing or substance use disorder" for functions other than furnishing care.
The Heart for Democracy and Technological know-how, along with the industry team eHealth Initiative, has proposed a voluntary framework to help well being apps safeguard data about their buyers. It doesn't restrict the definition of "health data" to services from a qualified, nor to a record of safeguarded situations, but consists of any info that could enable advertisers learn or infer about a person's health and fitness considerations. It also calls for corporations to publicly and conspicuously guarantee not to associate "de-identified" knowledge with any human being or unit — and to call for their contractors to promise the same.
So what can you do? There are a number of approaches to restrict the data health apps share, this kind of as not linking the app to your Facebook or Google account during sign-in. If you use an Apple iphone, find "ask application not to track" when prompted. If you are on Android, reset your Android Advertisement ID regularly. Tighten up your phone's privateness configurations, no matter if you use an Iphone or Android.
If apps check with for extra knowledge-sharing permissions, say no. If you are involved about the info you have now provided, you can check out distributing a data deletion request. Corporations aren't obligated to honor the request except if you dwell in California mainly because of the state's privateness regulation, but some companies say they'll delete data for everyone.

Existentially terrifying news today as the seventeenth Oddball game in a row caused local man Mark Pepper to doubt his capacity for free will. Pepper had been playing Halo Infinite for three hours and saw only Oddball games with no variation.
"I don't get it, I just don't get it. Am I that worthless?" said the gamer and powerless sack of flesh. "I just want to play some fucking Team Slayer, but I can't select it. The playlist claims that there's an equal chance to play other game modes, but I don't think that's true. I hear 'ball dropped' in my dreams. It horrifies me. I don't think I can go one more game of picking up that stupid fucking skull and having my teammates abandon me. I'm beginning to think life is pointless and we're all just made to die. And to pick up and hold balls for 100 seconds, of course."
Oddball is a game mode that has been consistently available throughout all Halo titles for the last twenty years, and has been willingly selected to play about three times during that period.
"We really wanted to break our community's spirits," said head of 343 Industries Bonnie Ross. "Our team polled thousands of our most dedicated gamers about their favorite game modes, and then we threw all that shit in the garbage and made it all Oddball. We really wanted to evoke the feeling of taking a multiple choice test and getting 'C' seven times in a row. We think that level of anxiety and fear really enhances the gaming experience. We also thought it would be funny to make any progression in the game based off of super arbitrary and specific challenges, and then taking away our players' ability to choose games that would allow them to complete those challenges. Since we are 343, we aren't contractually allowed to have a fully successful launch, so we added this irritating horseshit."
At press time, Pepper was striking a deal with Beelzebub to finally get to play SWAT at the cost of his immortal soul, directly before loading into an eighteenth match of Oddball.

Brand New Book
This illustrated history in colour features Derbyshire's seven canals, cut between 1774 and 1805 to play their part in the early stages of the Industrial Revolution. Five of these canals still exist. The book explains when, where, how and by whom the canals were built and for what purposes. The Trent and Mersey Canal, over 93 miles long, was a massive undertaking spanning three counties. The Peak Forest Canal was the last of the Derbyshire canals and the only one to penetrate quarried. The Chesterfield Canal sought to serve heavy industry and the Derby Canal came about because 'something must be done' about the town's poor transport links and coal shortages. The Erewash and Nutbrook Canals were both extensions of the River Trent.

President Muhammadu Buhari is set to take a crucial decision to address The academic staff union of universities, ASUU demands, the minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige has said.
He made this known in a statement forwarded to Journalists by his ministry's spokesman Olajide Oshundun while giving updates on its negotiations with the union.
According to him, to guide the President in taking a decision, the inter-ministerial departments and agencies committees of the Federal Government will turn in their reports on Wednesday.
The reports of the committees could bring an end to the four-month old strike embarked on by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
Ngige noted that Thursday's meeting was with the government side and not with ASUU members as assumed by their leadership.
The minister noted that the meeting was with the representatives of the Federal Ministry of Education, Federal Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Budget Office of the Federation, National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC), the Federal Ministry of Communication and Digital Economy and National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA).
He explained that the meeting was geared towards accelerating the resolution of the multiple strike actions o ASUU, Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU) and National Association of Academic Technologists (NAAT).
The leadership of ASUU began a one-month strike in February which was extended at the expiration by two-month. The union further extended the strike by another three months to give the government ample time to meet its demands.
The statement reads in part: "The meeting was meant for the inter-ministerial departments and agencies committees of the Federal Government, including the Federal Ministry of Education, Federal Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Budget Office of the Federation, National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC), the Federal Ministry of Communication and Digital Economy and National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA). The committees are reporting to the office of the Chief of Staff to the President and the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment.
"The meeting in question was called to assess the progress made so far on addressing the few outstanding demands of the striking university workers, such as the contentious payment platform and the renegotiation of their conditions of service. These two committees were empaneled by the Honourable Minister and the Chief of Staff to the President at the last tripartite plus meetings of the unions and the government side.
"For the avoidance of doubt, none of the unions was invited to last Thursday's meeting and the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Dr. Chris Ngige, while briefing State House correspondents after the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting last Wednesday, June 22, 2022, clarified that the meeting would hold the next day (Thursday, June 23, 2022), for the government side alone.
"As expected, the meeting was held and all the stakeholders reported on the various assignments given to them and accordingly, received further briefing and directives from the President in order to accelerate discussions with ASUU.
"It is hoped that before Wednesday this week, all the various sub-committees will turn in their reports, to enable Mr. President to be briefed fully and for decisions to be taken on the contentious payment platform and the renegotiation of the conditions of service, especially the issue of wage increase.
"It is after receiving briefings from the government side that the Ministry of Labour will bring all the stakeholders, including the unions, to a conference table to look at the agreement before signing or endorsement.
"Consequently, all insinuations that the Ministry of Labour does not sympathise with the students, unions and parents, of which the Minister is one, should be disabused. The Minister had on several occasions received commendation from the ASUU leadership for his role in the resolution of the impasse in the education sector.
Acting with the Chief of Staff to the President, he empaneled the two committees to work assiduously and according to the law, towards the resolution of the teething issues of payment platform and renegotiation of the conditions of service. The claims made here are verifiable, being out there in the public domain.
"Nonetheless, the ministry will not allow itself to be bullied by any union into forcing any payment platform on the government, which took a decision to adopt the IPPIS a long time ago in 2017.
"ASUU should know that we are arbitrators and conciliators. We cannot manufacture agreements. Regardless, we are not constrained from listening to the government and pushing them to do their own bit as quickly as possible.
"These clarifications are necessary so that the public will understand our role in the Ministry of Labour as conciliators and arbitrators in a Labour dispute."
DAILY GIST reported that ASUU had commenced nationwide strike on February 14th 2022, citing different demands which the FG had failed to meet as its reasons.
Some of the demands include, payments of salary arrears, better working conditions, renegotiation of the 2009 FG-ASUU agreement, payment of earned academic allowances, funds for the revitalization of public universities, promotion arrears, and poor funding of state universities.
Other tertiary institution unions also on strike include the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions (NASU), and the National Association of Academic Technologists (NAAT).
SSANU and NASU had announced the extension of their strike by two months on Wednesday, saying that the strike would only end when the Federal Government meets members' demands.

Updated: December 22, 2023
In this article, we will present you with each Casino Ottawa. Their Games, Entertainment and Bonuses.
Welcome to the capital of Canada. The city of Ottawa – situated in Southern Ontario, incorporates the Canadian government's offices, city hall, councils, international encounter places, and other important administrative sites. It holds it's primary – capital status in the country since 1857, when Queen Victoria picked it (from a group of several contenders), because of the city's midway position between Montreal and Toronto, beside the provincial border between Ontario and Quebec.
What was once a Champlain Sea area (thousands of years ago) dried after the ice and glacial periods to become the drained Ottawa valley. So from the melting ice to the sea. From the shrinking sea to the wetlands, clay, and rocks – emerging from beneath. Today's continental formations and cities exceed a million population.
The city was established in 1826 with the initial name Bytown and was later – in 1855 incorporated as Ottawa. Through the years expanded, receiving quite a few annexations, until the final unification of the municipalities of Ottawa and Carleton in 2001, which significantly increased the metropolis land area.
Regarding a dominant official language in the capital, the City council was years-long revising its policy for bilingualism. Nowadays, Ottawa offers all its public services in both: English and French.
The city's healthy economy pivots around 2 primary sectors, which are also the primary employers in the city – 1. The High-Tech industry and 2. The Federal Government. Both these economic branches contribute to 37% of its cumulative GDP- gross domestic product. Other sectors like finance, tourism, healthcare, agriculture, sales, forestry, mining, construction, and transportation are also progressively considerable economic activities.
In summary, the city's economy surges by 2.7 percent yearly for the last 5 years (before 2020). And unlike many other countries and world capitals, Ottawa considers liberalization and immigration as key to its economic growth.
Ottawa's constant liberalization attempts in regulations and restrictions could be discerned in the gambling and entertainment industry.
Stay with us to find out more about Gambling in Canada per city/state.
There are loads of famous landmarks, beautiful spots, and areas with engaging history, attracting visitors, and being the everyday pride and pleasure to local citizens in the national capital. If you find yourself in Ottawa, you shouldn't miss them.
The 2 mentioned casinos plus several compact gaming clubs, retailers with lotto and VLT's, legit slot machines situated in lounges, hotels, venues, shopping, and entertainment centers are all the betting audience has to be satisfied within the area.
Although the 2 casinos are exemplarily equipped and serve a mass of gambling enthusiasts 24/7 all year round, their number is not proportionate to the metropolitan population of over 1.3 million. Such a modest figure of gambling options in the capital and in very close proximity can be easily clarified by the development city plans of the metropolitan officials.
The municipal laws impose limitations on the location of slot machine halls and gambling establishments – they cannot be placed near educational institutes. In other words, the City Council of Ottawa, with its design, growth, and improvement plans, is constantly sticking to formality, moderation, and preservation of the metropolitan moral and shine facade.
The first mentioned gaming house – Casino du Lac-Leamy, is situated in the city of Gatineau. Although very close to the national capital and placed just on the Ontario-Quebec provincial border, the city of Gatineau belongs to the southwestern Quebec province. As such, it follows the gambling laws of that province. Here it is given gambling permission to people from the age of 18.
The second mentioned gaming house – Rideau Carleton Casino-is situated in Gloucester, near the Ottawa International Airport, i.e., Ottawa and Ontario. As such, it follows the gambling laws of that province. Here it is given gambling permission to people from the age of 19.
Within the province's borders, the OLG – Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation operates the gambling enterprises, which include: province-held lotteries, charity, and indigenous casinos, plus slot equipment at race tracks and commercial casinos. However, the AGCO – Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario is the provincial administrative and executive agency, that makes the rules and regulations.
To recapitulate:
Betting/Gambling at authorized land-based establishments: casinos, bars, and lounges in the provinces of Quebec and Ontario, is allowed, where the minimum age permitted for gambling by law is respectively 18 (Q) and 19 (O).
The provincial government runs the gambling establishment to raise funds, create jobs, contribute to the local revenue, and ultimately give back to the Quebecers. It is managed by Société des casinos du Québec (SCQ).
Casino Lac-Leamy is one old establishment (opened in 1996), excellently maintained and remodelled through the years. Now is one of the most renowned Canadian casinos, bragging with its gambling sector of 300 000 sq. feet of excellent casino entertainment in the following forms:
Besides its spacy gambling rooms, Lac Leamy Casino triumphs with a relaxing spa and an abundance of luxurious amenities: Bars (4x), Restaurants (5x), and a state-of-the-art Casino Theater.
Rideau Carleton Raceway is Ottawa situated Canadian horse racing and gambling complex. With its newly refurbished gaming floor, extra dining facilities, and racetrack, it is a desired destination for many residents and visitors of the capital.
The gambling establishment offers Rock Star Rewards for all its loyal visitors. They can relish the special perks available weekly exclusive to members. Using the Rock Star, casino cards could be won excursions, cash prizes, free rounds, and more. The establishment offers:
If you use your browser to search for anything other than these 2 casinos, you may discover the following 2 establishments: Casino Lac-Leamy Plaza and Club Casino Cabaret. Unfortunately, despite the word CASINO in their titles: the first is an outdoor marketplace with pavilions, and the second is an adult entertainment club (exotic dancing). So, both are not related to gambling experience.
Seeing the limited number of land-based gambling opportunities in the capital, it is only logical that online wagering is super popular and in demand.
The residents and visitors of Ottawa are legitimately permitted to register and engage in betting at any authorized online casino: domestic or offshore.
Both provinces: Quebec and Ontario, had started their 100% legal platforms (government-operated).
They are both small-scaled, recently launched – i.e. not so mature, plus restricted in choices.
When it comes to foreign operators, the choice is huge. Most betting sites are authorized by stringent commissions or license bodies of international jurisdictions, so they are safe and reliable. Any large and proficient online casino has the following advantages to offer to its customers:
Gigantic game collection. All popular gambling types:
The offshore online sites prevail against the land-based and even the domestic online casinos with their lavish promotions designed to attract Ottawa's gamblers. Welcome Bonuses, No Deposit Bonuses, Free Spins Bonuses are all meant to bring additional interest and deliver extra profit to the players.
The details about Casino Ottawa on our pages are offered as a universal advisor.
They should not be taken as official legal or tax source guidance.

American Detention Camps: for animals or humans?
Image: https://unsplash.com/@martinols3n
By Chelsey Gamage
America, supposedly the greatest country in the world? Locking up innocent people who are fleeing dangerous situations, or just looking for a better life, now that sounds like America. For many years now, more so after Donald Trump got elected as the 45th President of America, controversial and shocking stories have been emerging about the treatment of immigrants and refugees at these detention camps. These blameless, vulnerable people are separated from their families and are put into what can only be described as a cage, while they are being processed to enter the country.
17 immigrants died under ICE custody this year which is more than two times compared to the year before. A 51-year-old Taiwanese man died due to a massive intercranial haemorrhage and another man was found unresponsive in a Processing Centre in Florida (NBC News, 2020). This is only a very small number of cases that have been reported as unfortunately many immigrants die in the hands of ICE and the border control however because there are so many immigrants that arrive at the borders every day, they are not always processed and counted.
In March 2019, an astonishing 92,000 migrants were apprehended at the US – Mexico borders, (BBC News, 2019). These numbers are absolutely staggering, and you would think that America would have a more efficient process in which immigrants can have their asylum applications processed quicker however the average number of days it takes is 721 which is just under 2 years. Furthermore, the wait for immigrants' asylum application is long enough however only 20% of applications are approved and asylum granted which is just 1 in 5 immigrants.
It is heart-breaking to know that these people travel hundreds of miles with their young children or with the elderly, after having to find thousands of dollars and get into high levels of debt just to arrive at the US borders and to be rejected access into the country.
In 2018, the President of the United States at the time, Donald Trump introduced a 0-tolerance policy which aimed to deter immigrants from coming to America and 'intended to ramp-up criminal prosecution of people caught entering the United States illegally' (Human Rights Watch, 2018). This obviously did not stop people from travelling to the United States as they were fleeing from desperate and horrible situations thinking that America would greet them with open arms, however all they did was separate families from their children. Nearly 3,000 children were taken away from their parents and still to this date hundreds have still not been reunited with their parents and are missing (Human Rights Watch, 2018). The heartbreak and turmoil these people are going through is just indescribable and America's border control agencies are still to comment on the situation and help these parent's find their children.
The treatment of immigrants at these detention centres is what has people questioning why these people are being treated as animals and not as humans. When people from mostly Mexico and other Latin American countries arrive at America, they are told to wait under a bridge in El Paso called the Paso del Norte (The Guardian, 2019) which is near the US- Mexico border. Here they wait for the decision which affects their lives in the most inhumane conditions. One man reported that he had to share one foil blanket with his daughter, and they lived under the bridge for 4 days with very limited food. Another Mother cries as she watched her daughter sleep on the rocky dirt with no blanket, she says that she would've never left her country if she knew the way she was going to be treated when she arrived in the US.
Taylor Levy, a legal counsellor said that the Department of Home and Security and US federal Government have the funds needed to be able to make the immigration and asylum process easier but choose not to. She also said that they need to find a solution to stop young children sleeping on the floor and going hungry, (BBC, 2019).
Ultimately it is very evident to see from all this evidence that America do not care about vulnerable people coming to flee from danger and just wanting to have a better life for themselves. Donald Trump himself mocked immigrants by saying that they are 'coming like it's a picnic, let's go to Disneyland'. This shows the disrespect and selfishness of the former President as he does not fully understand the severity of this huge issue. The citizens have America can only hope now that with the new appointed President, Joe Biden, the immigration problem in America will improve and the deaths and missing people will be accounted for.

David Malpass Is a Climate and Development Failure
Under the leadership of David Malpass, the World Bank has been dragging its feet on climate action at a time when we need it to run. It is time for him to go.
Next week, the World Bank Group will have its annual meetings in Washington, D.C. The bank is a leading international development finance institution, backed by 189 governments, that commits more than $100 billion a year in financing for developing countries. Its dual aims are ending extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity. Its own research has found that climate change is a major threat to these goals: Left unaddressed, climate change could push up to 132 million people into extreme poverty by 2030. Understandably then, governments have called on the World Bank to make addressing climate change a core part of its work. To enable this, the World Bank needs to implement several important reforms. A key impediment is David Malpass, the bank's current president.
Malpass recently attracted media headlines after he appeared on a New York Times panel to discuss climate finance. The moderator asked him three times about Al Gore's claim that he was a climate denier and whether he agreed "man-made burning of fossil fuels is rapidly and dangerously warming the planet." Three times he demurred, eventually declaring "I don't even know—I'm not a scientist." This was not the first time Malpass, who was nominated by former president Donald Trump for the World Bank job, has questioned or denied climate science.
This is not acceptable for the leader of the World Bank.
Following his recent comments, Malpass went on something of an apology tour, with appearances on CNN, Politico, and at Stanford University. His efforts to walk back his comments have been unconvincing: claiming variously that the question "was pretty much off topic," that "I wasn't prepared," and that "I don't always do the best job in answering questions or hearing what the questions are." These excuses ring hollow—the event was focused on climate, and Al Gore had reiterated the charge that Malpass was a climate denier and not fit to lead the World Bank earlier in the day at the same event. This was a foreseeable question. His equivocations reveal his true beliefs.
We know climate change is not a priority for Malpass, not just from his words but from his deeds. Under his leadership since 2019, the bank has been dragging its feet on taking the climate crisis seriously, at a time when we need it to sprint:
- The World Bank is lagging behind its peers in the share of its funding dedicated to climate. Its current target is for 35 percent of its lending to deliver climate co-benefits. Compare this to the 50 percent targets of other multilateral development banks (MDBs) such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and European Investment Bank. The World Bank has already met its unambitious target, though questions remain about the reliability of this reporting. They could be doing more.
- Beyond climate-focused financing, the World Bank has been slow to align its overall lending portfolio with the Paris Agreement's goal of keeping warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels—and it has worked to hamper other MDBs from doing so. In 2018, MDBs announced they would develop a joint approach to harmonizing their operations with the Paris Agreement and would present this the following year. But after Malpass assumed office in 2019, this never happened. The World Bank was widely seen as the main impediment to getting collective agreement, and other MDBs have since moved ahead with their own, more ambitious individual Paris alignment approaches. In 2021, the World Bank finally announced target dates for aligning its portfolio with the Paris Agreement's goals. In a critical decade for climate action, the bank declared that it will not be Paris-aligned until mid-2023 for its main low- and middle-income country financing arms, and mid-2025 for its private sector arms. It has still not published details on its criteria for Paris alignment, nor has it been willing to commit to the 1.5 degrees Celsius temperature goal, a move that United Nations Assistant Secretary-General for Climate Action Selwin Hart called out last year as "shocking and deeply disappointing," continuing, "I'm compelled to single out the World Bank as an ongoing underperformer, which must substantially lift its game if its efforts at climate action are to be taken seriously."
- The World Bank has provided more than $14 billion in project financing for fossil fuels since the Paris Agreement was adopted, more than any other MDB, even with its policies restricting coal, and upstream oil and gas financing. When indirect investments through financial intermediaries and policy-based lending are taken into account, this figure is even larger. The World Bank also refused to sign onto a statement, endorsed by 34 countries and 5 financial institutions, including the European Investment Bank, that committed to "end new direct public support for the international unabated fossil fuel energy sector by the end of 2022, except in limited and clearly defined circumstances that are consistent with a 1.5 degrees Celsius warming limit and the goals of the Paris Agreement."
- Under orders from Malpass, the World Bank watered down a joint statement by MDBs at the COP26 climate summit, removing all specific targets and deadlines for climate finance commitments.
- The World Bank's own staff have spoken out about how Malpass has impeded them from doing more on climate.
It would be bad enough if Malpass was only undermining the World Bank's own efforts on climate change, but as the examples above show, the World Bank has also been hampering the work of other MDBs to develop joint approaches toward climate action. It is good that other MDBs have forged ahead with more ambitious individual policies, but a fragmented system is not as ideal as robust common approaches that might have been possible were Malpass not frustrating them.
Malpass's failures extend beyond climate. Under his leadership, the bank was slow to disburse emergency pandemic funding, delayed financing for COVID vaccine purchases and deployment (Malpass also publicly opposed waiving intellectual property rights for COVID vaccines), and refused to participate in the G20's Debt Service Suspension Initiative, which aimed to relieve the debt burdens of countries struggling from the pandemic. As a result, developing countries were paying six times more to the World Bank to service their existing debts than they received from the bank in emergency support. There also remain unanswered questions about Malpass's role in the Doing Business index scandal, where data was manipulated to adjust the rankings of countries, which ultimately led to the report's discontinuation.
To be sure, the World Bank had a checkered history even before Malpass took the helm, and its challenges run deeper than his leadership. As many leading thinkers have pointed out, it is time for a deep reform of the World Bank and other institutions of global economic governance to make them more representative and fit for tackling 21st-century challenges. As the Prime Minister of Barbados Mia Mottley has noted, the current global order is "simply the embalming of the old colonial order that existed at the time of the establishment of these institutions."
The bank needs to be delivering much more and better financing for critical climate and development priorities. There are several promising proposals for how to do this, including being more efficient with its existing resources, taking on more risk, and participating in debt relief initiatives.
Such reforms can only happen with a leader who fully appreciates the multiple crises facing the world, and who doesn't waste time equivocating about climate science and undermining urgent action.
As a growing chorus of government and civil society leaders are saying: Malpass must go.
