Entry into force on: | January 1, 1897 |
Last revision from: | July 16, 2007 ( BGBl. I p. 1330, 1351 ) |

Weblink: | Text of the Stock Exchange Act |
Please note the note on the applicable legal version. |
The German Stock Exchange Act (BörsG) is a law regulating business transactions on the stock exchange . The Stock Exchange Act only applies to stock exchanges that have been set up as unincorporated, public-law institutions, and to both securities and commodity exchanges. Because of this, the Stock Exchange Act is more of an administrative than commercial law character, even if the stock exchanges are sponsored by stock corporations and stock exchange transactions are structured under private law.
With the Financial Market Directive Implementation Act , the Stock Exchange Act was replaced by a new version on November 1, 2007.
Similar to trade fairs , merchants should regularly come together at stock exchanges in the same place, with a large number of transactions of (absent) goods, foreign exchange and securities taking place.
The legislature had already reacted to the immensely increased importance of stock exchange transactions for the national economy in 1896 (see basic data) with a stock exchange act. In it, futures trading was banned for certain areas and a futures register was required for futures that are still permitted. A difference objection was also admitted, which enabled the loser of a futures bet to refuse to pay the losses from the futures transaction. This law was not weakened until 1908, despite massive protests from stock exchange traders. In the 20th and 21st centuries there were several changes to the stock exchange law. The latter often resulted in the deregulation of the markets, that is, less state control.
Regulatory content
The Stock Exchange Act initially deals with the establishment and supervision of stock exchanges ( Section 1 BörsG). The establishment of a stock exchange requires approval, it is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission , when (the Ministry of Economy as a rule) acts by the supreme state authority.
It is the responsibility of the exchange to operate a trading surveillance office ( § 7 BörsG) and to form an exchange council ( § 12 BörsG). A management board must be appointed for ongoing business. The Exchange Council is also responsible for issuing exchange regulations.
According to § 24 of the Exchange Act of stock market price is determined.
Approval / approval requirements
The §§ 27 et seq. BörsG treat approval requirements for lead brokers and securities and their issuers. Since June 1, 2012, the liability bases for incorrect stock exchange prospectuses within the meaning of the Securities Prospectus Act have been regulated in §§ 21 ff. WpPG. In the course of this, Sections 44–47 BörsG were repealed. Further admission regulations for securities are regulated in the Stock Exchange Admission Ordinance (BörsZulV).
Penal regulations
According to § 49 BörsG, "anyone who, contrary to § 26 (1) BörsG, induces others to speculate on the stock exchange or to participate in such a transaction is punished with imprisonment of up to three years or [...] with a fine ". The Stock Exchange Act is therefore part of ancillary criminal law . The market manipulation is to §§ 119 and 120 WpHG in conjunction with the market abuse regulation , the investment fraud by § 264a StGB prosecution.
Further regulatory requirements
For other violations of the BörsG, administrative fines have been issued ( Section 50 BörsG). Transitional regulations can be found in Section 52 BörsG.

What does M mean on a trailer tire?
A trailer tire's speed rating is usually denoted by a letter code. For examples, an L-rated tire can handle speeds up to 75-mph while an M-rated tire can handle higher speeds up to 81-mph. helpful expert reply by: Adam R.
How do I identify my trailer tires?

What is the difference between 4.80 and 5.30 tire?
A 4.80-12 tire will be 20.5 inches in diameter whereas a 5.30-12 tire will be 21.9 inches. You would need to make sure that the is more than 3/4 of an inch above the 4.80-12 tire to be able to use a 5.30-12. The smaller 4.80-12 is 4.9 inches wide. The 5.30-12 is 5.6 inches wide.
What do the letters on trailer tires mean?
The letter in the tire size refers to the load rating of the tire. For the tire you referenced, the Loadstar ST185/80D13 Bias Trailer Tire, the tire is a Load Range D tire. This means that the maximum load of the tire is 1,725 pounds at 65 psi. A Load Range C tire will have a lower capacity than a Load Range D tire.
What size are my trailer tires?
8 – 9 – 10 – 12 – Inch Trailer Tire Sizing
Older Size | Tire Size | Overall Diameter |
– | 4.80/4.00-8 | 16.1 inches |

– | 205/50-10 | 18.3 inches |
Is m/s the same as all season?
Mud and snow tires also called all season tires, have the letter M + S on the side. They are perfect for temperate winter conditions, with only occasional snow and ice. They work fairly well in mud, providing enough traction to get through it.
How do you read the date code on a trailer tire?
How do I determine the age of my trailer tires? Every tire has a date code stamped on the sidewall, which is the date the tire was manufactured. The date code is usually at the end of the DOT I.D. and is a 4 digit number. The first two numbers indicate the week (out of 52) and the last two digits indicate the year.
How do you date code tires?
The last four numbers represent the manufacturer's date. The first two numbers indicate the week, while the last two indicate the year. (For example, a tire with the number 2910 was manufactured in the 29th week of 2010.)
What does D mean on trailer tires?
The D is the designation for the internal construction of the tire. The D stands for diagonal or bias ply construction. That means the tire body plies inside the tire will crisscross. The 15 is the wheel diameter in inches and the C after the tire size will designate the load range.

The water filter is a smart, inexpensive, and easy-to-use device that can keep the water in your fridge from being cloudy and foul tasting.
I think it's safe to say we've all been surprised and delighted by changes to our refrigeration systems. It's one of those things that we expect in every new kitchen, but when it happens, it seems like no one really notices.
Its a very common problem, and it's one that comes up frequently when we get new houses. The fridge water filter is one of the most common solutions that seems to be on the drawing board. The solution is basically easy and cheap. The system consists of a filter placed in the water line and a small pump. It cleans the water line and makes the water taste good again.
There are a couple of other solutions that can be used. One is to switch the filter between different water lines within the home. This is something that we are doing with our new house. The other is to use a reverse osmosis filter to clean the water line, but this is more expensive.
The problem about reverse osmosis is that it can be hard for people with bad blood pressure to get a good flow of water. We are using a water filter that can run for a few hours and then slowly turn on. The filter is made from a special material that is designed to work just like a reverse osmosis filter. There are also several other brands on the market that claim to have the system in their products.
It's pretty simple. You just have to put the filter in a plastic bag and set it up. When you need to flush the filter, just throw it in the toilet and flush it.
Water is a vital part of life and we certainly don't want our drinking water to be a source of illness. Unfortunately, we're also pretty good at cooking water from dirty, hard water. That is, if we remember to do it right. We've got a few tricks up our sleeve.
We've all heard the stories of old couples that have had their water pumped from the well to their house. This is because we can't have that level of clean water, but we also have a lot of water on the farm. So we decided that the best way to get clean water to our farm was to put a filter in the water we water our horses. A couple weeks ago we found a brand name filter that works.
You dont need to go to a fancy hotel to get a good filter. You dont even need a whole new filter. You just have to clean out the existing filter, then put your new filter in. The old filter will last for about two weeks, then it needs to be replaced. We all had a few bottles that were dirty and not cleaned out when we got them, so we figured it would take at least a week, maybe more. For this one, we used a standard filter.
You can only get to a brand new filter of a product for a year from when the original factory closes. So we had to go somewhere to get our brand new filter, and we found a local store that was open until 9:00 at night. They had the filter, and they were open till 9:00. I think it was only about two weeks.

Off-season splashes in the NBA, unless you're the Warriors, are made in an effort to catch up to the pack. Entering this summer, the Raptors weren't exactly bringing up the rear. Winning 56 games, running away with the East's second seed and advancing to the Conference Finals comfortably has Toronto as one of the league's pace-setters for the first time in franchise history.
With Kevin Durant's landscape-altering move to Oakland, and a handful of teams in the East making plays to improve, the sense of dejection that seems rampant among Raptors fans is understandable. Toronto lost an effective contributor in Bismack Biyombo, had an unsexy draft night and has struck out on all of the free agents it's been linked with through four-plus days of free agency.
But don't fall into the trap of thinking this off-season has been a failure for Masai Ujiri. Toronto is operating with a head start on the rest of the field, and none of the chair-shuffling below them in the standings can realistically be expected to close the gap in time for opening day. Atlanta replaced Al Horford and Jeff Teague with Dwight Howard and an enhanced role for the volatile Dennis Schroeder -- a drop-off from their 48-win 2015-16 season is to be expected. Miami looks set to return a similar team to the one the Raptors beat in the second round, minus Joe Johnson ... and possibly Dwyane Wade ... and Tyler Johnson; Chris Bosh's future remains unclear as well. Boston's addition of Horford is huge, but Toronto's roster probably still has the overall edge in both talent and continuity. None of the East's other teams' transactions appear to have a prayer of elevating them to the East's top tier.
Standing pat is fine when you're at the level of Toronto. Factoring in the internal growth by players like Jonas Valanciunas and Norman Powell, the Raptors should enter the year as the favourite to repeat as the two-seed. Sure, resigning to another season of playing second-fiddle to the Cavs might be tough to swallow, but such has been the reality for every team in LeBron's East since 2011 -- he changes the extent to which his opponents can daydream. With the team as it is today, Toronto still stands a strong chance of replicating the rollicking fun it produced in this year's playoffs in the spring of 2017.
There does remain some potential for Ujiri to make late roster-bolstering additions, though. Durant has left turbulent waters in the wake of his move, and it may churn up some pieces that can be plucked from the surface by the Raptors via trade. On the free agent market, there remain some highly intriguing lottery ticket plays, and some less exciting but more stable options up front who could help bolster Toronto's thin big man rotation.
Armed with the understanding that none of these hypothetical pick-ups are absolutely necessary for the Raptors' to uphold their lofty new organization standards, here are a handful of small moves that could help the cause next season, and inject some life into a largely dull summer thus far.
Trade for Boris Diaw
What better way to replace a beloved, international power forward in his thirties with a delightful old man game than with a more talented, beloved, international power forward in his thirties with a delightful old man game. Immediately following the news that the Spurs were signing Pau Gasol, reports surfaced that the Spurs were looking to move Diaw and his $7.5 million cap hit in a bit of financial reshuffling to fit Gasol in under the salary cap.
Diaw is 34, and before his career was rejuvenated with a move to San Antonio during the 2011-12 season, his career was teetering. There's no way to guarantee Toronto Diaw would be the same as the ultra-versatile multi-tool he was with the Spurs, but given the way Luis Scola tailed off down the stretch last season, you could pencil him in as an upgrade -- whether he were to start or push Patrick Patterson into Scola's old role.
A lot of teams could use a guy like Diaw to inject some ball skills, solid defense and league average-ish three-point shooting, so a bidding war of sorts could develop for his services. But an offer centred around Lucas Nogueira could be a decent starting point for getting a deal in motion.
Trade for Taj Gibson
Gibson's name has been thrown around on sites like this for what seems like two years. Terrence Ross is the name on the tip of most Raptors fans' tongues when it comes to any kind of trade for a significant salary (Gibson has a cap hit of just under $9 million). But in this case, trading three seasons of a cheap shooting threat like Ross for one year of a power forward boost might not make a ton of sense for the Raptors, who are light on dangerous shooters as it is.
Still, there are ways in which a deal that benefits both sides could be cobbled together. If the Bulls, seemingly in a transition year, want to get out of say, Mike Dunleavy's contract in order to give more playing time to their developmental projects on the wing, maybe a Dunleavy and Gibson for Ross swap could be in the cards? Gibson would be an obvious choice to start at power forward, while also being able to play alongside Patterson as a centre to alleviate the load on Toronto's unproven backup centres. Dunleavy, meanwhile, could replicate some of Ross' catch-and-shoot accuracy while also providing a more steady hand on the defensive end.
Sign Terrence Jones
Jones has always been one of those guys who feels like he should be a lot better than he is. Injuries and inconsistency, however, have slowed the soon-to-be former Rocket's development to the point where he's now taking up "flier" status on the free agent market.
It's one the Raptors should at least do their research into taking. Even with just 83 games played in the last two years, there have been encouraging flashes; his 33 game sample in 2014-15, in which he shot 35 percent from three while posting 15.6 points, 8.9 boards and 2.4 blocks per-36 is tantalizing enough to take a shot if he can be signed into the Raptors' cap space on a one or two-year value-rehab deal.
Sign Someone Old and Slow
There's no shortage of old dudes without jobs who could soak up some backup front court minutes in Toronto next season. Nene is done in Washington, David Lee is only a year or so removed from being a key of sorts in the Warriors' title win over the Cavs, and guys like Josh Smith (puke) are kicking around too.
None of those options are even the tiniest bit impressive or even fun to think about. The Raptors are quite good, though. They aren't some monumental move away from matching their 2015-16 output. Adding a purveyor of veteran presence, a la Scola last season, might be all the hamstrung Raptors can accomplish this summer. Given their standing within the league's current hierarchy, that may be all that's necessary.

From the Principal
It is not always immediately obvious to me, as a teacher of English and History, the breadth of expression and difference in perspective that exist in a classroom. That individuality comes out over time and generally more slowly than at first sight. That's why – apart from the quality of work itself – viewing student art is always a very enjoyable and educative thing to do. This month's Year 7 and 8 Art Exhibition is a terrific example of this idea. The classes clearly started their projects with the same themes, intended outcomes and materials with which to work. Then, via interpretation, imagination and guidance, they constructed unique works that reflected their vision and skill. Despite working in the same setting, with the same resources and the same timeframe, our students have produced distinctly different, individual outcomes. They have expressed themselves and, most likely, had to take risks in doing so as they engaged with forming skills and the inevitable public scrutiny that making art invites.
All the different projects are great and the art staff have ensured that the students are engaging with some wonderful work. A particularly alluring one was the very industrial looking, black shapes made from various salvaged materials. Across the group, there is a wide range of responses to the prompt. There are machines, robots, flying vehicles and army tanks. There are some other constructions which are not as easy to decipher! One of my favourites is a 'lamp fish', which bears all the foreboding that the artist clearly wanted to portray. I love it.
The richness that the art show's variety describes in our various perspectives is compelling. It reminds us that we are all individuals – students and staff alike – and all need a path that allows for the safe and respectful expression of individuality. It is an enduring theme of Trinity that, over the years, we have sought to treat our people as individuals. That is still our position today and will be our position into the future, supported as the idea is in the fabric of our emerging Strategic Plan. We look forward to launching our plan in the coming months, and to embarking on the various elements of it to continue to enhance TGS well into the future.

One Hundred
This poem by the founder of the Reggio-Emilia approach, Loris Malaguzzi, beautifully conveys the important roles that discovery, wonder and imagination play in early childhood learning. Our ELC is a place of research, curiosity and wonder and this creates an environment of interest and surprise for both teachers and students. The process of learning is documented and displayed on the walls of classrooms, corridors and online through seesaw. Our documentation gives voice to the children's work and our learning as an extension of natural curiosity and illustrates to the students that their work is of value and shares our learning.
The Child
is made of one hundred.
The child has
a hundred languages
a hundred hands
a hundred thoughts
a hundred ways of thinking
of playing, of speaking.
A hundred always a hundred
ways of listening
of marvelling, of loving
a hundred joys
for singing and understanding
a hundred worlds
to discover
a hundred worlds
to invent
a hundred worlds
to dream.
The child has
a hundred languages
(and a hundred hundred hundred more)
but they steal ninety-nine.
The school and the culture
separate the head from the body.
They tell the child:
to think without hands
to do without head
to listen and not to speak
to understand without joy
to love and to marvel
only at Easter and at Christmas.
They tell the child:
to discover the world already there
and of the hundred
they steal ninety-nine.
They tell the child:
that work and play
reality and fantasy
science and imagination
sky and earth
reason and dream
are things
that do not belong together.
And thus they tell the child
that the hundred is not there.
The child says:
No way. The hundred is there.

PYP Exhibition
On Thursday 11 August, for the first time since 2019 the Year 6 cohort was able to display their learning and share the process of their learning for the PYP Exhibition to the Trinity community, in person. This exhibition is the culmination of learning throughout their whole junior PYP journey, which began in 2018. Further credit must go to these boys and all staff as they have had to deal with the complexities that 2020 and 2021 presented.
It was wonderful to see all students inquire deeply into a global issue that demonstrated their understanding of the Learner Profile attributes and as a result their International Mindedness growth was evident. The Year 6 staff, teacher mentors and parents all contributed to the learning process, and I know all the students benefitted as a result from everyone's care and interest in their learning.
Upon questioning, the students were able to describe what 'action' they have taken and will take for the future, further demonstrating their understanding. It was also evident that the PYP Exhibition will be remembered throughout their lives as a significant section of their learning journey. The five different ways the boys can ACT were also represented (Participation, Advocacy, Social Justice, Social Entrepreneurship and Lifestyle Choices) in their discussions with all staff, so let's now look forward to seeing some of these placed into action in the years ahead.
One group's 'action' was evident in the process when they wrote an email to New Zealand Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern. In her letter, she informed the students about the pathways she is opening for meaningful work for Kiwis and she has opened the Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund that supports learners to undertake vocational education and training without fees. She then signed off saying, 'Thank you for sharing your idea about surveying young people from 15-18 about what jobs they may like to do. I will share this with the Minister of Social Development and Employment.'

German Poetry Competition
After two years online, the AGTV German Poetry Competition went live in the Tudor Centre on 9 August when Principal Adrian Farrer welcomed 64 German students from Scotch, PLC, Camberwell Girls Grammar and Trinity Grammar to the Inner Eastern Regional Finals of this prestigious annual event.
Heli Cheung, Max Jian, Josh Sidhu, Zac Solley and Aaryan Walter progressed through the classroom heats to represent Year 5. In Year 6 Felix Cantale, Alexander Hrysomalis, James Morgan, Max Walsh and Steven Zhuang won through to the Regionals.
After the individual performances, while the students relaxed over a well-deserved afternoon tea, the 14 judges were anguished over the final scores. When the prize-winners were announced, the excitement and applause were fantastisch – in Year 5 Heli and Josh achieved first and fourth (Honourable Mention) respectively, while Steven placed second and Felix fourth (Honourable Mention) in Year 6.
We wish Heli and Steven viel Glück in the State Finals and congratulate all our Regional finalists for their outstanding commitment. Thanks also to the judges and our Super-Frau Maria Hohlweg, who organised the wonderful event.

Primary Open Semi-Final Chess Tournament
Last week on Friday 12 August some of the boys got the opportunity to play for Trinity Grammar School in a Zonal Chess Tournament. Our team consisted of Aric, Senuk, Luke, Oneth and myself (Yuvin). The results for the Primary Open Semi-Final were: Aric (High Distinction Grade 5-6 Gold), Yuvin (High Distinction Grade 5-6 Bronze), Senuk (Distinction Grade 3-4 Silver), Luke (Distinction) and Oneth (Distinction). It was a pleasure to see the Trinity boys' team win first place. With this win the students will have the privilege to play in a state final. Here's what they have to say: 'It was a fun and exciting tournament. We thoroughly enjoyed it as the competition wasn't too difficult'.

Science Week
Science Week was an amazing success at Trinity Grammar School. A number of events took place over the course of the week to promote science and careers in science. The following activities took place over the course of Science Week:
- 'Explosions in Science' conducted at the Junior School, showcasing various experiments that caused a 'bang' in science.
- 'Organ Bonanza' conducted by resident biology teacher Mr Ben Elliott, where students investigated various organisms.
- 'Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream Sale'. Our very own liquid nitrogen ice cream was made in-house with the proceeds going to Harambee. A total of $220 was made from the day's sales.
- 'A talk with Dr Monique Ryan'. Newly elected Kooyong representative, Dr Monique Ryan came to talk all things science and her pathway that led to being the Director of Neurology at the Royal Children's Hospital.

Skills Day
Skills Day and the cooking night with Mr Stewart was a great opportunity to connect with each other and cooperate in various activities. During Skills Day, we had an awesome talk from fellow Year 11 student, Kobe Mould, which all gave us an idea on how important mental health is. There were tough challenges throughout the day, which came with a tough cardio session from Mrs Cooper on the bikes. Mr Brown also gave us an incredible lecture in the rain on how to change a car tyre. During the cooking night we logged onto Teams and Mr Stewart ran us through how to make unbelievable cannelloni, with Mr Botha MCing. Ms Stansfield and Darcy Stewart were also there with Mr Stewart while making the cannelloni and made good assistant helpers. In conclusion, Skills Day and cooking night was an excellent experience for us to all collaborate and join each other for decent challenges.

August Recital Series
On Tuesday 9 August a selection of students from Year 1 to Year 11 performed in the after-school String Recital. Lachlan Ho (Year 1) and Ethan Ngiam (Year 1) played in their first ever recital and enjoyed watching advanced performances from older students like Oliver Wilkie (Year 11). Well done to all the musicians who took advantage of the chance to perform.

On Tuesday 16 August we held our first piano recital with 18 piano students and a live and enthusiastic audience! The recital showcased a variety of levels, from young beginners right through to advanced students from Prep to Year 12. The variety gave the older students an opportunity to remember their early years, and the younger students the opportunity to see what they could achieve in the future. Congratulations to all the student performers for an outstanding showcase!

Life is a Song
Trinity vocal students treated their audience to a smorgasbord of songs on Tuesday 16 August in the South Room. Accompanied by Ms Sorcha Delaney, each student presented a solo item of their own choosing for the assembled audience. Students ranged in age from Year 5 to Year 12 and their song choice reflected their musical interest as well as their personal journey on the continuum of vocal development.
Students who performed were: James Blanch, Flynn Callow-Sussex, James Davies, Matthew Fallscheer, Jimmy Hilton, Constantine Koutrouzas, Ben Reynolds, Ted Richmond-Smith, Mathew Rigby, Sam Shaw, and Andrew Zhang. Mathew Rigby will be singing with the Victorian Opera in Il Mago di Oz at the Palais Theatre from 27 – 30 August. Mathew tells me he is playing a munchkin. Toi toi Mathew!

Take the Long View
I have taught Year 12 Texts and Traditions and Economics for over 30 years. My mantra to the students has been the same in all my classes. The heart of teaching has never really been about content for me. I always teach my students to have a strong work ethic, keep perspective, live by their values, dream big, follow their passion in life, that relationships are everything, and to make an impact on others through their loving actions.
I am never sure how the seeds planted in the hearts and minds of my students will grow. My favourite Year 12 class is always my final one. It is an exciting time. Our students are well trained and prepared to take on the marathon of life. They are ready to fly on their own.
Being a father of ten children, a teacher, a footy coach and being involved in community development, I know the work I do is never complete. There is aIways more to do and I make a few mistakes along the way. However, there is a sense of liberation in me knowing that I am not perfect and can't do everything. I just try my best and rely on God's grace to do the rest.
The Kingdom of God, which is at the heart of Christ's teaching, calls us all to hold onto the long view of life. Known as 'The Romero Prayer', this prayer has always given me inspiration and courage to take on challenges that I know I can never complete or causes that will endure long after my lifetime. I believe in the long vision. I am committed to the Kingdom of God. I hope you can draw your own inspiration from this prayer as well.
The Romero Prayer
It helps, now and then, to step back and take the long view.
The Kingdom is not only beyond our efforts; it is even beyond our vision.
We accomplish in our lifetime only a fraction of the magnificent enterprise that is God's work.
Nothing we do is complete, which is another way of saying that the kingdom always lies beyond us.
No statement says all that could be said. No prayer fully expresses our faith. No confession brings perfection. No pastoral visit brings wholeness. No program accomplishes the church's mission. No set of goals and objectives includes everything.
This is what we are about.
We plant the seeds that one day will grow. We water the seeds already planted, knowing that they hold future promise. We lay foundations that will need further development. We provide yeast that produces effects far beyond our capabilities.
We cannot do everything and there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. This enables us to do something and to do it well. It may be incomplete, but it is a beginning, a step along the way, an opportunity for the Lord's grace to enter and do the rest. We may never see the end results, but that is the difference between the master builder and the worker.
We are workers, not master builders, ministers, not messiahs.
We are prophets of a future not our own.
Tom Purcell
Director of Outreach

RadarBali.id reports that drought conditions in Bali are impacting the availability of fresh water processed and distributed by Denpasar's Water Utility (PDAM).
The freshwater supply of the Permuda Municipal Water Board (Perumda Air Minum Tirta Sewakadarma) in Denpasar has been reduced by 15%. The water deficit was confirmed by the Technical Director of the Provincially-owned Water board, Putu Yasa, on Monday, 23 October 2023.
Permuda is optimizing measures to ensure water supplies are not interrupted during the continuing drought. Among the measures being taken by the water company is the creation of new water channels to help store water supplies. Yasa said: "By making the new water channels, production will remain at 1,200 liters per second."
In 2015, during a Bali-wide drought, when water deficits ran at 30%, water channels allowed the periodic downstream water capture when rains fell in upstream areas. In this way, water production was maintained at 1,200 liters per second.
The Bali Meteorology, Climate, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG-Bali) forecast the dry season will end and rains begin to fall in mid-November.
Putu Yasa recommends that the public conserve and store water until the annual rains return.

Grey's Anatomy Season 19 will not be like previous seasons. Ellen Pompeo will reportedly not play Meredith Grey physically in the majority of the forthcoming episodes. Is the actress in any trouble? What's the reason behind the reduced screen time? Here's what we know.
Grey's Anatomy Season 19 Cast
Aside from occasional Ellen Pompeo appearances, here are the confirmed Grey's Anatomy Season 19 cast members.
According to Netflix Life, Chandra Wilson will reprise her role as Miranda Bailey, and James Pickens Jr. will reprise his role as Richard Webber. They've been on the show since the first season.
Other returning cast members include Kevin McKidd as Dr. Owen Hunt, Caterina Scorsone as Dr. Amelia Shepherd, Camilla Luddington as Dr. Jo Wilson, Kelly McCreary as Dr. Maggie Pierce, Kim Raver as Dr. Teddy Altman, Jake Borelli as Dr. Levi Schmitt, Chris Carmack as Dr. Atticus "Link" Lincoln, Anthony Hill as Dr. Winston Ndugu, and Scott Speedman as Dr. Nick Marsh.
The new cast members are Harry Shum Jr. as Daniel Kwan, Niko Terho as Lucas Adams, Midori Francis as Mika Yasuda, Adelaide Kane as Jules Millin, and Alexis Floyd as Simone Griffin.
Richard Flood won't reprise his role as Dr. Cormac Hayes, it has been revealed.
Ellen Pompeo's Reduced On-Screen Role
Ellen Pompeo will narrate every episode of Grey's Anatomy Season 19, but fans may expect to see her in eight of them as Meredith Grey. Pompeo will continue to serve in the role of executive producer.
According to Deadline, the new season will include 22 episodes total, with Pompeo appearing in less than half of them.
Pompeo has taken on a leading role in Hulu's Orphan, which has limited her time on Grey's Anatomy. She's also reduced her involvement as Meredith significantly over the last few seasons. Pompeo is believed to be leaving the show after Season 19, although this has yet to be confirmed.
Grey's Anatomy Season 19 Release Date
Grey's Anatomy Season 19 will premiere on ABC on Oct. 6, 2022, at 9 p.m. ET. While fans will have to wait a while longer, the cast and crew are already getting excited about what's to come.
Season 18 concluded in May 2022 with better Thursday night ratings, particularly for the 400th episode of the program. As noted by Deadline, the season finale left off with Meredith Grey staying at Seattle's Grey Sloan and not leaving for Minnesota, so fans are eager to see where Grey's Anatomy Season 19 picks up.

One of New York's largest and most prestigious universities, which sits on roughly 230 acres and spans over 100 buildings, is home to approximately 28,000 undergraduate students that are housed in more than 20 residence halls. Skyline Restoration and Superstructures Engineers + Architects worked with the university to update perimeter conditions of one of its student housing buildings using Kingspan's OPTIM-R vacuum insulation panels.
The 15-story student housing building was built in 1987 and houses approximately 740 students. Its roof and terraces needed to be brought up to code and waterproofed for leaks due to issues with door thresholds and parapets with a fast turnaround time of between six and 10 days.
Between 1,500 and 1,800 square feet of Kingspan's OPTIM-R vacuum insulation panels were used in the retrofit project for the student housing building. Kingspan's OPTIM-R is a next-generation insulation comprising rigid vacuum insulation panels (VIP) with a microporous core, which is evacuated, encased and sealed in a thin, gas-tight envelope to give outstanding R-values and an ultra-thin insulation solution.
"The existing roofing system's insulation thickness was minimal and the doors and through-wall air conditioning units were very low," says Michael Stripunsky, senior associate, Superstructures Engineers + Architects. "The distance from the top of the existing concrete deck to the bottom of the air conditioning unit wall penetration was less than 8 inches. If traditional insulation had been used, the top of the new roofing system would have been just at the level of the wall opening."
OPTIM-R's high level of thermal efficiency—up to R-28 on 1 inch and R-57 on 2 inch using calculated edge thermal resistance properties—combined with minimal thickness, provides an ideal solution for applications like that of the student housing building, where a lack of construction space or depth was an issue. OPTIM-R made installation fast and easy because of its ultra-thin nature and its effectiveness for when space is tight.
"In a case like this, using OPTIM-R was a cost effective and efficient solution. We saved the client money and time, and allowed for normal building operation," remarks Stripunsky. "Using OPTIM-R also allowed us to avoid costly modifications to the existing perimeter conditions."

Activism Square
Activism and advocacy have been pillars of Slow Food activity since the organization's beginnings.
Our methods and collaborators may have changed over time, but we've constantly tried to shape public opinion and called attention to topics which are now being taken seriously by governments, particularly concerning the link between food production and the environment.
What petitions is Slow Food involved in? What campaigns are activists in the Slow Food movement working on, and how are they getting the attention of politicians? What are we fighting for?
Slow Food activists are numerous and diverse, as are the challenges they're rising to face across the world.
Our campaigns
Once we identify an action that we believe needs to be taken, how do we build a campaign around it?
Save bees and farmers
The objective was a million signatures, and with Save Bees and Farmers we gathered 1,161,255. Over a million European citizens who showed their solidarity with bees and raised their voices against pesticides!
Behind every signature there's an awareness: that bees and other pollinators play a crucial role for biodiversity and agriculture. And that without bees, a large number of vegetable species would no longer exist.
The campaign was a success, from the identification of its objectives, its research into alliances, the choice of communication tools and approaches.
At Terra Madre we'll demonstrate how all this was made possible.
Other campaigns: from land grabbing to social justice and food sovereignty
Priorities change from place to place. At Terra Madre we present other successful campaigns, from a mobilization against land grabbing in Africa, to battles for social justice in North America and for food sovereignty in Latin America.
The importance of creativity
Creativity is an important element in any successful campaign. And creativity is often (rightly!) associated with younger generations. In Activism Square you can meet members of the Slow Food Youth Network, and take part in creativity workshops.

By Annie Wakanyi, One Acre Fund
At the beginning of 2023, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) confirmed that the previous eight years had been the warmest on record. Meanwhile, preliminary data indicate that average global temperatures on 17 November were more than 2°C above pre-industrial levels for the first time ever. While this threshold was surpassed only briefly, it serves as a jolting reminder of the extreme temperatures we are witnessing this year.
What will the future look like if we continue on this trajectory? Data suggest that by 2050 we could see 90% of soils become degraded, with crop yields declining by 3-12%, and a 20% rise in the risk of hunger and malnutrition. In a 'business-as-usual' scenario, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), global average temperatures could increase by as much as 4.4°C above pre-industrial levels by 2100. At this degree of heating, the proportion of category 4 and 5 tropical cyclones could increase by 20%.
These are just some of the statistics highlighted in One Acre Fund's 'Global Croptake' – an in-depth examination of threats to the livelihoods of smallholder farmers since the adoption of the Paris Agreement on climate change in 2015 and into the future.
Smallholder farmers are already witnessing the devastating impacts of the climate crisis on their crops, harvests, and consequently their livelihoods. These impacts – which smallholders have had little role in causing – include rising temperatures, degraded soils, and more frequent and intense weather events. Early in 2023, Cyclone Freddy ravaged communities in Malawi and Mozambique, whilst an intensified El Niño is currently causing extreme flooding in Somalia and neighboring East African countries.
Around 2 billion people – a quarter of the global population – rely on smallholder farms for food and income. Despite this, a recent report reveals that in 2021, smallholder farmers received a mere 0.3% of international climate finance. It's plain in that we are failing to prioritize investment in the very people who hold the keys to resilience.
As the UN Climate Change Conference (UNFCCC COP 28) kicks off this week in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), the need to engage with smallholder farmers across the globe has never been more urgent. As custodians of the land, smallholder farmers hold a crucial role not just in addressing the impacts of climate breakdown, but in advancing progress towards a host of other SDGs, from ending poverty and hunger to achieving gender equality and protecting biodiversity. In our journey towards a sustainable future, smallholders are big players, and women and youth, who face additional systemic barriers to prosperity, should be a particular focus. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO) estimates that if women smallholders had the same access to productive resources as men, they could help increase food production by 30% and reduce world hunger by 15%.
One Acre Fund provides smallholder farmers across sub-Saharan Africa with the necessary tools, innovations, and knowledge to increase their climate resilience, while helping tackle immediate barriers to prosperity. Our farmer-led work is focused primarily on adaptation, allowing smallholders to safeguard their livelihoods in the face of a rapidly changing climate. Our field officers, who are largely smallholders themselves, train fellow farmers to adopt climate-smart practices to increase farm yields, resulting in sustainable growth of income. We have seen first-hand that equipping farmers to adopt climate-smart approaches to farming helps build resilient families and farms.
Whilst smallholders should not be responsible for climate change mitigation as they produce just 0.6% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions each year, many are contributing to global mitigation efforts through initiatives like on-farm tree planting. There is an enormous opportunity to scale these efforts.
To continue building resilience and mitigating the effects of the climate crisis with their one or two acres of land, smallholders need investment from the global community – governments, policymakers, financial institutions, development partners, and civil society. It is vital that this need is met if we are to transform global food systems to be more sustainable, equitable, and resilient. A thriving network of climate-smart and resilient farmers across sub-Saharan Africa – and beyond – is a win-win for people and the planet.
COP 28 is a key opportunity for the global community to engage with and invest in smallholders. Putting farmers at the center of global climate dialogue is paramount to identifying effective resilience solutions. We are calling on the COP community to recognize the power and agency that smallholders possess, by explicitly referencing smallholder farmers in COP 28 outcomes and acknowledging both the barriers they face and the solutions they hold.
Smallholder farmers have an opportunity to combat global heating, secure livelihoods, build soil health, and safeguard the world for future generations. It's up to us as the international community to step up finance for impactful programs that support smallholder farmers to overcome the challenges of the climate crisis, embed resilience, and ensure a prosperous future.
If we don't act now, our Global Croptake analysis shows us the sobering alternative. It's time to ask the questions: what kind of future are we collectively sowing? And how can we ensure smallholders are supported to adapt to this future? Solutions exist. Now it's time to support smallholders to scale them.
Annie Wakanyi is Director of Global Government Partnerships at One Acre Fund.

Shen grad Kevin Huerter being traded to Sacramento Kings
The Atlanta Hawks are trading Shen grad Kevin Huerter to the Sacramento Kings for Justin Holiday, Mo Harkless and a future conditional draft pick, according to a person with direct knowledge of the agreement.
The trade was first reported by ESPN. Last year, Huerter signed a $65 million contract with the Atlanta Hawks. That money will remain.
Huerter averaged 11.4 points in four seasons with Atlanta after being selected by the Hawks with the No. 19 pick in the 2018 draft. He was a starter for the overwhelming majority of his time in Atlanta. Before that, he played for the University of Maryland.
A trade seemed likely after the Hawks added guard Dejounte Murray in a trade with San Antonio this week, creating a backcourt pairing of young All-Stars — Murray and Trae Young.
Holiday spent 26 games with the Hawks in the 2015-16 season and averaged 8.3 points for the Kings this past season. Harkless averaged 4.6 points for Sacramento last season.

Both obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)and obesity can cause myocardial remodeling and cardiac insufficiency via corresponding pathophysiological pathways. Therefore, it is speculated that the superposition of OSA and obesity may cause more severe impairment of cardiac function. The objective of our study was to evaluate the early changes of left ventricular systolic function in obese patients with OSA with three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography(3D-STE).
This study was conducted with33 obese OSA, 46 non-obese OSA, and 20 healthy subjects. Demographic, biochemical, and Polysomnography(PSG) data were collected, and their relation with the left ventricular strain was measured and analyzed with 3D-STE.
The Left ventricular strain was significantly worse in the OSA group compared to the control group(P < 0.05). The global longitudinal strain(GLS) was significantly worse in the OSA obese group compared to non-obese OSA group (P < 0.05). The GLS value positively correlated with body mass index(BMI) (r = 0.406, P < 0.001),Apnea-hypopnea index(AHI)(r = 0.610, P < 0.001)and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOME-IR) (r = 0.431, P < 0.001) in patients with OSA. Multiple linear regression analysis showed BMI as a predictor of GLS and global circumferential strain(GCS), AHI as a predictor of GLS, and HOME-IR as a predictor of global area strain(GAS) and global radial strain(GRS).
In OSA patients, the myocardial strain was impaired before the damages in left ventricular ejection fraction, suggesting that the left ventricular systolic function is damaged early. The coexistence of obesity and OSA can lead to severe impairment of cardiac function through hypoxia and insulin resistance.

CICMQ Accredited Companies Discuss Their Current Situation During These Challenging Economic Times
On Wednesday, 23rd November, CICM and Head of Accreditation Karen Tuffs FCICM hosted an exclusive CICMQ virtual event with our prestigious accredited companies in attendance.
The event, 'Supporting Our Network Through Challenging Economic Times', asked our companies about the current economic situation, how they were putting the well-being of their employees into practice and any adjustments for their customer's payment terms.
We had a range of attendees from Health Care, Solicitors, Engineering, Insurance, and Construction, to name a few, which gave us an incredible array of responses to all the questions we posed to them.
The first activity to break the ice was to guess how much things cost 20 years ago. We had 'How much was bread?', 'How much was a wedding?', 'How much was petrol?' and of course, in the current climate, we know that the prices have risen as we feel it when buying our weekly shop and filling up our car.
A Storm Is Brewing
After the icebreaker, our attendees were split into six groups and banished into the breakout rooms for the first two questions:
- How is the current economic situation impacting your organisation?
- What measures are you taking/considering to mitigate the impact?
We gave the groups ten minutes to discuss their answers before returning them to the virtual room. Each group roughly had the same answers – Not seeing an impact, especially for the construction industries, as they are still going forward with Government contracts.
Insurance firm Atradius stated that in Quarter 4 / 1, they anticipate a 'boom' time for debt collections with success rates from referrals and an increase of 40% in insolvency.
Biffa stated they had yet to see an impact from businesses apart from Colleges and Universities due to room rates, downsizing and hybrid working. In contrast, Amey said there was a turndown in the waste side with fewer collections.
Everyone agreed that although the current economic situation did not impact them, they predict a storm is coming next year, with more insolvencies happening.
Communication is key!
After the last group gave their answers, we sent them along their merry way back into their breakout rooms for the following three questions to answer:
- Why is knowing customers more important than ever?
- How are you identifying what support your clients/customers need?
- What adjustments have you made to your payment terms to assist your customers?
For the first question, there was a resounding answer: ' It's ALWAYS been the MOST important thing to know your customers!'
You need to be aware of their behaviours, and you can look out for any little changes, such as a lack of communication, when they are generally good at replying to you.
For the second question, the most popular answer was 'communication.' As mentioned above, it was about identifying different behaviours, such as an increase in spending – why is this happening? Increasing their communications via email or telephone or meeting the client and customers in person for that personal touch, build that rapport and gain their loyalty to you.
Much like the other two questions, the third question came back with a 'No' to any adjustments. The over-arching answer was, 'The payment terms need to be stuck to – they are what they are and need to be adhered to.'
How do you support the well-being of your employees?
We then came to the last two questions of the event:
- How are you and your teams putting well-being policies into action, and how do these vary across the sectors?
- How can organisations strike the balance of supporting employees at difficult times and staying financially viable themselves?
Once the ten minutes were up, we got straight into their answers. Our CICMQ-accredited companies take the well-being of their employees seriously, which is why they are the best of the best in the Credit Management and Collections industry!
Our accredited companies have confidential phone lines for staff to ring to discuss anything they wish and Mental Health first aiders to support struggling teams.
They also commented on company-wide Well-Being surveys, which create action plans from the answers submitted, safe spots in the offices to go and work from, and 121 time with managers to discuss any issues.
The last question of the session was about striking a balance between working from home vs. office working. The census was that it was better to give the option to work from wherever their team members prefer and not to drag people back to the office but entice them in with new perks such as food and drink, investing in people's career paths, team lunches and catch-ups, and more employee benefits.
Although a couple of attendees said it was hard to create camaraderie with your colleagues who work from home, offering that flexibility and looking after your team is the number one priority. In doing so, the results will follow.
The event gave us insight into our accredited companies and how the economic challenges will affect them next year. With awareness of their answers, it means we can support our members and companies to drive the industry forward and unite the credit and collections community.
