Ecuador: Nationwide transportation strike ongoing October 3
President Lenin Moreno reached a deal with indigenous leaders in the late hours (local time) on Sunday, October 13, to replace the decree slashing fuel subsidies with one that directs resources to the more vulnerable groups. Both sides have agreed to work together to draft the new law, however, it is not clear as of 01:00 on Monday, October 14, when it will come into effect. Indigenous leaders have consequently called off protests, and asked its supporters to take to the streets on Monday to begin a clean-up effort. Disruptive and widespread celebrations are ongoing in Quito, and may continue into Monday.
A heightened security presence and transportation disruptions are still likely in Quito and in other major urban centers across the country in the coming days. Further protests cannot be ruled out until the government implements the new agreement.
Several civil society groups and unions began protesting and striking on October 3 in response to President Moreno's announcement on October 1 that the government would eliminate nearly USD 1.3 billion in fuel subsidies to reduce the country's fiscal deficit. Prices of gasoline and diesel fuel are expected to increase significantly as a result of the measure, which came into effect on October 3. The Ecuadorian government has declared a two-month state of emergency and deployed military and police forces to reopen roads and restore order in protest-affected areas. President Moreno moved his government from Quito to Guayaquil following violent protests that vandalized the assembly building in the capital on October 7.
Individuals in Quito and across Ecuador are advised to monitor the situation, avoid all protests and demonstrations, anticipate a heightened security presence and associated disruptions to transportation and business, and adhere to instructions issued by local authorities and their home governments.

Telford police-we can't solve racism
WEST MERCIA Police have admitted that they are useless at solving racist crimes. Socialist Worker has found out that West Mercia Police are set to hand over the "racial aspects" of the Telford McGowan cases to Scotland Yard's Racial and Violent Crimes Taskforce. It is virtually unprecedented for one police force to hand over a case to another.
Errol McGowan and his nephew Jason were both found hanged in Telford, Shropshire, against a background of racial harassment and death threats. Yet West Mercia Police jumped to the conclusion that the men committed suicide. Despite figures of recorded racist crimes in Telford shooting up over the past two years, the police have not arrested anyone. The McGowans have also been shown a CCTV video in the possession of West Mercia Police of an alleged racist attack on Errol McGowan by 15 white men. During the attack Errol's three Asian friends were arrested by the police. None of the attackers were detained.
Errol's brother Cliff told Socialist Worker, "The police originally told us the tape didn't prove Errol was being racially harassed because they couldn't hear what the attackers were saying."
- Justice for Errol and Jason McGowan, PO Box 216, Telford TF1 4WU.

Customer Reviews
Love the pillow cases as much as we do the sheets, needed extras for King pillows.
The Luxe pillowcases are wonderful. I wasn't sure if wanted the Luxe or Cool set so I ordered the pillowcases for both versions and neither disapointed. The fabric on both are luxurious and feel very durable. I prefer the fabric of the Luxe since it is so soft that it seemingly melts into the pillow. The One Bed's customer service is top of the line and they respond very quickly, even on the weekend.
Hi, I've had the sheets approximately 2 weeks and so far love them. Only problem is that one of the king flats is not a king, so doesn't fit.

CEN WS/BII Vision and mission The vision of the BII Workshop is that all organizations – independent of whether they are public or private and whatever their size and nationality - are enabled to conduct electronic business in an effective and efficient manner, significantly lowering costs for transaction processing. The CEN WS/BII Workshop mission is to spread and facilitate the use of e-procurement standards by suppliers and buyers, and especially public administrations, by: identifying requirements (including legal) regarding e-procurement standards; providing a general framework for the organizational and semantic levels of interoperability for the electronic procurement documents; supporting the implementation of commonly applied international e- procurement standards; providing organizational support to ensure the governance and maintenance for those requirements. 3

The Enthusiastic Company
Should a business be only interested in the bottom line? Or should it also dedicate itself to having a corps of happy employees? You'll find a discussion on the subject at
. Here's the opening paragraph:
For half of its twenty-year life while I was CEO, my company was like most companies. The workers did only what they were paid to do, the executives took long lunches, and no one told the boss what he or she really thought. People performed simply because they needed the paycheck. So, whats wrong with that, you might ask? Nothing, of course, except it isnt enough.

How it works
Quarterly rebate
In some instances, the discount will be a payment that will be reinvested at the end of every quarter into the qualifying funds. Any rebates you receive in an Investment Account are potentially liable to income tax at your marginal tax rate.
Lower ongoing fund charges
In other instances, some funds have the discount built into the fund's ongoing charges, so you pay a lower charge than usual. A list of the funds with lower ongoing charges will soon be available on this page as part of planned site improvements.
Other Fidelity sites
Please remember that past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance, the performance of investments is not guaranteed, and the value of your investments can go down as well as up, so you may get back less than you invest. When investments have particular tax features, these will depend on your personal circumstances and tax rules may change in the future. This website does not contain any personal recommendations for a particular course of action, service or product. You should regularly review your investment objectives and choices and, if you are unsure whether an investment is suitable for you, you should contact an authorised financial adviser.

The Art of Speculation Series 6 – Never Panic Buy or Sell
As an investor we need to keep a clear head at all times and not influenced by the daily gyrations of the financial markets. This is due to the shifting from fear to greed and vice versa by the crowd. It is not easy to avoid being caught up in a stampede in the different end of the bull and bear markets. Nobody wants to be left behind during a bull or a bear market rush where the herd is moving. So it is very important to keep your head when others are about to lose theirs.
Never follow the Crowd
This is important because we tend to follow the crowd wherever they move because it is an inbuilt instinct that had been cultivated among us. When we are small our parents always teach us to follow rules and regulations. Don't walk alone at night, go fishing alone, go swimming alone and so on. Always go with a group so everybody can keep an eye on everybody. So in a way group behavior had been ingrained into our mind and hence our decision making. Instead of having to make decisions individually we tend to follow the herd because it is the safest.
However in the investment world you must trust no one, in your decision making process. Following the crowd is normally a wrong decision. More wrong stocks are sold during panic selling in crisis and bought during panic buying in bull markets than any other times. There are too many tales to be told where folks are making hugh losses due to their bad decision making.
Panic Selling
An example is during the assassination of President Kennedy, the market lost 25% in one week and there is a deluge of panic selling. Everyone wants to get out, primarily because of uncertainty surrounding the stock market, fear, confusion and lack of confidence are the only thoughts in the minds of investors. Losing your mind during such period will certainly means losing your money. Within three years after the assassination of JFK, the S&P rose more than 21%.
Similarly after the 9/11 terrorist attack on the twin towers, the NYSE was closed from September 11 to September 17. On reopening the Dow Jones (DJIA) lost more than 7% or 684 points, resulting in more than $1.4 trillion being wipe out in that week. The airlines and tourism industries were the hardest hit because of fear of another attack. However, the stock market recovered fairly quickly and reached an all time high in 2006.
Panic selling does not only apply to the stock market as a whole but also on individual companies. There are many times companies faced with unforeseen circumstances which might lead to lower or cut dividends completely, earnings lower than expected, strike by workers and etc. A lot of people upon getting such news will start liquidating their shares without even border to check for the reasons. Most of the time you will find that a few days after the announcement the stock price will rebound back to or higher than the original price. The reason being insiders, shrewd investors and other people in the know had already sold their shares at the higher price before the announcements. When the news is announced they have the pleasure of relieving those investors who panicked by buying their shares at a lower price.
Panic Buying
On the other side of the coin there is always the panic buying by investors. Panic buying occurs when there is good news announced like a contract is sealed, a merger and acquisition exercise, a strike had been settled, a discovery of large mineral deposit and etc. This is the time where investors felt that they don't want to be left behind in the anticipated price hike in the shares. People just rush in and start bidding the share price to ridiculously high price. End result will surely be profit taking and will result in a much lower price in the next few days.
The bigger danger of panic buying is during the end of a bull run. Normally a bull run ends with a parabolic run up in the share prices. During such times volume are normally very heavy because every investors wants to have a bit of the action. Parabolic runs normally end in tears. This is the time where stock promoters are out in force and newspapers headlines are always about the market that is making new highs week after week. This is where most of the panic buying occurs because no one wants to be left out. This is the sign that serious troubles are ahead because by the time the bubble burst these investors are the last to get out.
Maintain a Cool Head
However as an astute investor, we need to look out for signs of panic buying and don't join in the rush. Instead we should maintain a cool head and will always provide the pleasure by relieving those investors of their shares when panic sales ensue later.
However as for us getting into such frenzy buying and selling a few times in our career in investing, is a prerequisite for our learning process before we settle down in the business of making serious money.

FAYETTEVILLE -- A pilot program will have state officials auditing election results from five Arkansas counties in 2020 to check the accuracy of new voting equipment and to reassure voters about the election process.
State legislators authorized the postelection audit program during this year's legislative session. Act 888 directs the state Board of Election Commissioners to do the audits no less than 60 days after the 2020 general election. According to the law, the audit isn't a recount and will have no legal effect on the election's outcome.
The audit was discussed Wednesday at a meeting of county election commissioners and election officials from Northwest Arkansas. The group meets quarterly, and Wednesday's session focused on election laws adopted this year.
Daniel Shults, staff director of the state board, said the counties will be chosen in a random drawing from those using the new electronic voting machines. The law mandates that one of the five counties have a population of more than 100,000 and that the other four have populations of less than 100,000. The audit will include at least one county from each of the state's four congressional districts.
"This is to ensure the public's belief in the integrity of the election system," Shults said Wednesday.
Shults said Arkansas was one of only 16 states with no postelection audit requirements before the approval of Act 888.
Jennifer Price, Washington County's election director, recommended several steps regarding the handling and storage of election materials to make sure counties can comply with the audit if selected. She asked whether the audit will be a hand recount or will be done with the electronic counting machines. Shults said those details hadn't been decided.
Kim Dennison, Benton County's election coordinator, said her office has begun preparing for an audit. Benton County is one of seven Arkansas counties with a population of more than 100,000. Washington County also has more than 100,000 people.
"We'll be ready, if selected," Dennison said. "With the requirement that one of the counties be over 100,000, it's a good chance we'll be one of them."
Renee Oelschlaeger, chairman of the Washington County Election Commission, said the audit program is a response to a review of state election systems that noted Arkansas had no requirement for postelection checks.
"The thought was that is something that's easily corrected, so we will implement it," Oelschlaeger said.
Robbyn Tumey, a member of the Benton County Election Commission, said the audit will show the system works.
"Transparency is what we should be providing, and I don't have a problem with doing that," Tumey said.

The final season of "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." continues Wednesday night on 6abc.
Alicia Vitarelli had a chance to chat with two of the stars, one of them, Jeff Ward, is a Philadelphia native and big-time Eagles fan.
Ward says he can't wait to get back home to cheer on his home team.
In Wednesday night's episode, they get sent back to 1982 where they get stranded and don't know if, or when, the team is coming back for them.
Jeff says the irony of this time travel is particularly relevant, and sort of ironic, in this COVID-19 world we are living in.
"We shot all of this before coronavirus happened," Ward says. "This is a kind of tether into this old world where we got to see each other and hang out and hug and stuff. You know, it's like it feels like a distant memory, but it's so cool to be able to escape into that world."
The actors say this 7th and final season feels bittersweet. They also say we should expect some major drama.
"It's a wild ride to the very end and it's just like every season beforehand, you don't know what to expect," says Henry Simmons, who is also on the show. "The tagline of the show should be: expect the unexpected."
You can watch the all-new episode of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. only here on 6abc. It starts tonight at 10 p.m., then watch Action News at 11 with Jim Gardner.

If you're one of the hundreds who got soaked walking to work this morning, then don't worry - you are by no means alone.
Weather forecasts failed us all, but we've been assured that this is the suss for the rest of the day.
According to Met Éireann:
''Bright or sunny spells at times this morning and just the odd shower. More cloud about this afternoon, but staying dry in moderate to fresh southwest breezes. Some drizzle is possible this evening. Top temperatures 16 to 18 C.''
So, while this morning was seriously wet - this afternoon sees a much brighter, sunnier and drier day.
Great news for all involved.

BassCat and Mark Davis together again
MOUNTAIN HOME, Ark. (January 7, 2020) – Mark Davis, a 2019 inductee into the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame and still competing at the top levels of tournament fishing after over three decades as a full-time pro, has rejoined the Bass Cat Boats pro team.
In 1995 Davis became the first professional angler to win both the Bassmaster Angler of the Year title and the Bassmaster Classic trophy in the same year. He went on to win the Angler of the Year title twice more, along with four more B.A.S.S. victories and an FLW Tour tournament. In addition to 20 Bassmaster Classic appearances, he competed in three Forrest Wood Cups. Between those two circuits he has totaled well over $2 million in winnings. In 2019 he moved to the Bass Pro Tour where he'll continue to compete in 2020 and beyond.
"I started my career with Bass Cat and I owe the Pierce family a lot," Davis said. "My wife Tilly and I recently went on a plant visit and it was like we'd never left. It's great to be back."
Bass Cat President Rick Pierce stressed the Davis serves as an important link between the history of the sport and the younger generation of anglers rising today. "Mark has unimpeachable ethics and can tell a story just about better than anyone else on earth. He may have temporarily run another boat, but he never left the Bass Cat family and we hope he finishes out his career with us, no matter how long that lasts."
This year Davis will run the 20'8" Lynx, a wide-bodied model that offers an incredible balance of performance and comfort.
"It's very innovative and fits my style of fishing," he said. "It's a fairly new hull, and the layout suits me really well."
Bass Cat Pro Staff Manager Kevin Short was thrilled to be able to add Davis back to the team.
"We have an incredible array of talents across all three major tours," Short said. "To be able to add an angler of Mark's caliber and accomplishments to the fold is a gift. He has always been one of those people that everyone looked up to as an example of what it means to be a professional angler on every level."

Demi Moore admits to bizarre beauty secret: 'I let leeches suck my blood'
By RICHARD SIMPSON
Last updated at 22:25 25 March 2008
It sounds like a particularly refined form of torture. But Demi Moore swears by it, as a way of looking healthy and far younger than her 45 years.
The secret, says Miss Moore, is an extremely alternative beauty therapy.
Scroll down for more...
Sucker: During an interview with David Letterman yesterday, Demi Moore revealed she is a fan of 'leech therapy'
In New York to promote her new film Flawless, Moore told U.S. talk show host David Letterman: "I feel like I've always been someone looking for the cutting edge of things that optimise your health and healing.
"I was in Austria doing a cleanse and part of the treatment was leech therapy. These aren't just swamp leeches though - we are talking about highly trained medical leeches.
"These are not some low-level scavengers - we're talking high-level blood suckers."
Miss Moore, whose husband Ashton Kutcher is only 30, said she went to the leech doctor to "detoxify my blood".
Leech therapy has a long history - ancient Egyptian doctors once considered them a cure-all.
Today, they are sometimes used in plastic and reconstructive surgery to assist in the reattachment of severed body parts.
"They have a little enzyme that when they are biting down in you it gets released in your blood and generally you bleed for quite a bit - and your health is optimised.
"It detoxifies your blood - I'm feeling very detoxified right now.
"I did it in some woman's house lying on her bed. We did a little sampler first, which is in the belly button.

Detox: Demi received the treatment as part of a 'cleanse' while visiting Austria
"It crawls in and you feel it bite down on you and you want to go, 'You b*****d'. Then you relax and work on your breathing just to kind of relax.
"You watch it swell up on your blood, watching it get fatter and fatter - then when it's super drunk on your blood it just kind of rolls over like it's stumbling out of the bar."
Miss Moore explained how she prepared herself for the leeches. "You have to do a turpentine bath first - that's part of the therapy," she said.
Thirsty: the actress says the little critters left her feeling 'revitalized'
"The other thing I found out is that leeches don't like hair so if you are hairy be prepared to do some shaving or waxing - they much prefer a Brazilian."
The actress said she is convinced the therapy worked and she will be returning to Austria for more sessions.
"You first feel worse then you feel better. But I'm going back - I only got four leeches and I feel a bit cheated."
Another key to Miss Moore's youthful looks, which she failed to mention on the show, is the £220,000 she spent on a head-to-toe makeover five years ago.
She was reported to have had liposuction to her hips, thighs and stomach, breast implants, brow lifts, collagen injections, knee surgery, a breast lift, her teeth veneered and laser whitened, chemical skin peeling and a long course of exercise coaching.
The actress became famous in the 1990s with films including Ghost, in which she starred opposite Patrick Swayze, and Indecent Proposal with Woody Harrelson and Robert Redford.
She and Willis, now 53, split in 1998 after 11 years together. They have three daughters, Rumer, 19, Scout, 16, and Tallulah Belle, 14.
Miss Moore and Kutcher, star of movies such as Dude, Where's My Car?, married in September 2005.

text: Managing credit badly – for example not making your payments, or making late payments – will show up on your credit history. And your credit history doesn't just affect whether you'll be able to borrow again in the future, it can also stop you from doing some pretty major everyday things too. Recent research* carried out for us found that some six million Brits have been excluded from some aspects of day-to-day life because of how they've used credit in the past. Here are six things that could be affected by your credit score, and a couple of them may surprise you: 1) Mobile phone contract – when you apply for a mobile phone contract, the provider runs a credit check on you. If they see you've had problems with late payments or defaults, they may well turn you down. 2) Bank account – you are likely to be credit checked when you apply for a current account with a bank or building society and you could be rejected if your credit report isn't up to scratch. 3) Jobs – some employers may credit check you when you apply for a job and it can mean the difference between securing the position or not. This won't happen for all jobs but if you're looking at a role where you'll have to handle money, it's a possibility. 4) Car insurance – if you're looking to insure your car, you can be credit checked for this too. This is because when you pay for your insurance monthly by direct debit, the insurer is essentially lending you the money and letting you repay it over the year. 5) Rental agreement – you probably already know that a bad credit record could stop you getting a mortgage, but did you know it could affect where you're able to rent too? Landlords may want to check whether you're likely to make your payments or not. 6) Utility bills – your energy supplier can also check your credit score and if you've got a history of not paying your bills, this could create problems for you. They may require a security deposit or put you on a pre-payment meter, which can work out more expensive than paying by monthly direct debit. If you're in doubt whether your credit record will cause you problems, check it at one of the main credit reference agencies: Experian, Equifax, or Callcredit. You should do this at least once a year so you'll be able to see if anything has changed. Don't panic if you do find some problems on your credit report – they'll be removed after 6 years and in that time you could try to improve your credit score. For example, a credit builder credit card, like the one available from Ocean, can help you demonstrate that you can use credit responsibly – if you put small amounts on the card it and repay on time every month, this could boost your credit score. But you need to take care, as failure to make the minimum payment on time or stay within your credit limit could harm your credit rating. You can find out more here. *OnePoll questioned a nationally representative sample of 2,000 adults aged 18 and over between 11th February and 23rd February 2015, of whom 635 were in Scotland.

It can be hard buying something for the first time when you don't understand the lingo, so we have written this blog post to give you a heads up on the the key terms you need to know when buying granite or quartz worktops.
Granite Worktops
Natural Stone formed over billions of years from cooled magma under the earths crust. Granite is low-maintenance and retains its natural beauty for years. It provides outstanding stain and heat resistance and a cool, sterile surface for the preparation of food.
Quartz Worktops
Man-Made or Engineered stone. As a worktop material, quartz is extremely low maintenance, non-porous, highly stain resistant and very hard wearing making them ideal for modern busy life. They are available in a vast range of colours, so you will be assured of finding a colour and style to complement your kitchen and bathroom design.
Undermount (sink cut-out)
A type of sink cut out whereby the cut out is precisely made to the shape of the sink and the sink is then fixed underneath the worktop. Gives an amazing finish with the inside polished edges on show.
Drainer Grooves
These comprise a set of equal length grooves that are cut into the surface of the worktop to act as a water drainer. It is usual to get a set of 5, however a set of 4 is also an option. Also requested are double drainer grooves if a double sink is fitted. Part function, part design, these are a great addition for Belfast or Undermount sinks. Heres a link showing DRAINER GROOVES
Inset Sink / Inset Hob Cut Out
An unpolished cut out for a top-mounted sink or hob.
Profile Edge
This is the shape of the worktop edge, the most popular being a Double Chamfer, or Flat Ariss.
Double Chamfer Profile Edge
This is the most common type of profile edge and is made up of a polished square edge with a slight chamfer at the top and bottom of the worktop. Works well for either contemporary or traditional designs. Heres a link showing CHAMFERED profile edge.
Demi Bullnose
This is a profile edge that resembles a half circle on the top edge of the worktop. Not commonly used in contemporary designs but works perfectly if it's the traditional look youre after. Heres a link showing BULLNOSE profile edge.
Radius Curved Corners
Where based units are fitted with a curve, radius curved edges match the base unit profile below, anything up to a 300mm radius curve. Or they can be child friendly curved corners the size of a 10p coin. When pricing up your kitchen, bear in mind that some fabricators will charge extra for large radius curved corners.
This is part of the worktop run that juts out, creating a break in the linear run and making this section of the worktop deeper than the standard 60cm. These are usually for draws and are common in traditional style kitchens. Check out these examples of BREAKFRONTS
The average height for upstands is 100mm and is in effect a border that is fitted against the walls sitting on top of the worktop. Usually made of thinner material than the worktop thickness (20mm is the standard) these offer water protection and give a wonderful finish. Especially worth considering if the walls of the kitchen area are bowed or out of alignment. They can usually save the cost of tiling also. Check out these examples of UPSTANDS
Splashbacks hob sink
This is a rectangular shaped piece of material which can be fixed to the wall behind the hob, range cooker or sink. The splashbacks offer protection from cooking liquids, steam and/or water. They can be fitted to reach right under the bottom of the extractor fan, or full height under the window sill, known as an Under Sill splash back. As an added design feature splashbacks can also go full height to the bottom of the wall units. Check out these examples of HOB BACKSPLASH, SINK SPLASHBACK
Hopefully this Granite Lingo Guide has given an outline of what options you need to consider when buying granite or quartz, however if you wanted to discuss anything in greater details we are on hand to assist.

TJ, sounds like fun! Wish we had one here. We have a pool at the hospital, but you can not swim laps and it costs about 85.00 a month (fitness center)
Kathi, bet that was a blast!
I remember being on the swim team at Mtn. Home. Diane Ice was on the diving team. Her Dad flew us to Provo, Utah for a swim meet. there was a lady from the Olympics that called my parents and wanted me to go into training. I didn't know about it until my parents told me.... Sounded great until she said I would have to swim 2,000 laps a day! I loved swimming, but not that much! Hey, I was in High School and that was not my idea of fun. Looking back, sure wish I had taken her up on it..hahaha!

And I really hope that You also will remember this celebration, this party, as happy day of celebration, of well-earned congratulations.
And if You in some mysterious way should suddenly feel an inrestible urge to change your preferred tongue to nynorsk, don't resist, just go with the flow, join the ranks following Ivar Aasen.
When I was a media student i 1987-1989, there was no such thing as master in media studies. So as I wanted to study media later, I had to go the University for a theoretical study of mass communication. A few of my fellow students would enter a one-year course in documentary film. This was the careful start of of it all, of the masters study you now have completed. In 2012 I became the first professor with the department of media and journalism, and at least one professor of ones own was a necessity for the accreditation of the first masters degree to be accepted: Documentary and Journalism – dokumentar og journalistikk.
In 2016-2017 the media department reached the conclusion that the masters degree should be available for all bachelor degrees, not only for journalists, as well as for international students. So at breakneck speed a new accreditation process was performed – and with success! The evaluation committee accepted the plans, and in hindsight it's almost incredible how fast the accreditation was earned and how fast students were recruited and the whole thing started out.
I know from reading the students evaluation in the survey «Studiebarometeret» that not everything was ship shape from day one. Professor Paul Bjerke has also mentioned how You students have been raising points of criticism. But I'm very proud of You, as Paul said You have always pointed to solution of problems. I do hope the enthusiasm of the staff and their dedication for teaching have made up for the points of criticism. And that the overall evaluation now at the end of the journey is a positive one. But please: Keep on telling us how we can improve. We want to constantly grow better.
Returning to the 2017-accreditation and the evaluation-process, one thing really has changed since 2012: The number of professors by the department now was no problem at all. There are several professors at the departement – each of them recognized experts in their field. I do hope and trust this is a positive development which will continue in the future.
But, there is one piece of careful criticism in the commitees evalution that could be worth remembering. The committee said:
«Be aware of the balance regarding gender within the staff.»
It is a well established fact that media not only is a mere reflection of important issues and social structures in society. Far from that. Media also will present a world-view, give us ideas of how the world works, and maybe exaggerate existing images of who and what is important – and who is in power. So when maybe 75 percent of people presented in media, sources, are men – there is still much to be done. And the same applies to university staff.
This college has had a majority of female students for a hundred years. Only the last few years have we seen that females have reached a majority of the staff of the university college. But among full professors we still see a clear majority of men.
The last few years the department have recruited more and more women, and is closing the gap as compared to the development in media as well as compared to the other departments by the Volda University College. Again: This is a positive trend, and I hope it will continue.
So what kind of media future are You entering?
I wish I could tell You so. This is the million dollar question. The word «disruption» is often used to describe a development in which old and established media companies and institutions are crumbling and maybe disappearing, while other are suddenly emerging. Disruption brings both destruction and new possibilities.
One former dean with the department placed the responsibility for You to find a job only on Your self: – There is always a job for good people, he used to say.
I think we should be a little more analytical.
The media tools, distribution channels and knowledge of mediated communication in general has been lifted out of the realms of powerful media corporations and has become available for anyone. This should be a good thing. A professional videocamera would cost maby more money than the journalist – the operator of the camera – made in a year some 20-30 years ago. Today the videocamera in an iphone probably has better picture quality than the professional cameras of Yesterday. The distribution channels used to be available only for state broadcasters or owners of printing presses. Today Youtube, Facebook and blogs are available for nothing. Thirdly the knowledge of how media works has been turned into common knowledge. Any high school student knows a bit about theories of media influence.
So where does bring the professional media master?
I will say that as the tools, channels and knowledge of media is becoming available, media also saturates all aspects of life. Meaning that for schools, the government, businesses and organisations – dealing with or producing media output has become necessary – essential – for status and survival.
So the number of journalists in traditional media businesses is surely being reduced – sometimes by brute force. But in other parts of society there is an eager demand for media production.
Small and medium-sized businesses as well as start-ups have an important role in this respect.
And also in Volda we find interesting business of this kind.
At Sunnmøre Kulturnæringshage in Volda a number of small start-ups and a little bit more established companies are to be find. Do drop in – they might round. Maybe there is a match between You and the startups? Several of these companies are making the most out of the combination of media knowledge and local advantages – such as spectacular scenery of mountains, fjord and sea.
And as You probably have heard – both James Bond and Marvels Black Widow has recently visited our region, for precisely these reasons. And the best TV-Series in Norway in 2018: Heimebane, was recently shot close by us in Ulsteinvik. I'm happy to see that several students and staff contributed in that project. We're all proud of You!
So for each and evey one of You: I do hope that You will make the most out of the knowledge, the friendships and the experience of have spent two years or more in Volda!
As You now know: Volda is the place You will never forget.

The Beatles, Pat Benatar, Balance in Life, Living Life Fully, Sam Simon and Honesty
We have our hour in the sun and then we are gone.
The Beatles honed their voices, harmonies, songs, lyrics, bass guitars, lead guitars, words, feelings and zeitgeist and directed it with full hurricane force towards the expression of love and then they were gone.
When you hear John Lennon singing "Twist and Shout" – taking off his shirt to scream the song in one successful take, you are left with the experience of that hurricane – of what it must have been like, but also of possibilities for you and I to have the same hurricane force expressed in our lifetimes.
You feel the same when you hear Ms. Pat Benatar belt out her songs live, her voice at breaking point or Pavarotti singing or Paul Newman's performance in The Verdict.
A while ago, my client, a quiet unassuming former Buddhist monk experienced that hurricane by selling his nutritional product to every single person in a packed room – by quietly but firmly confronting people with the truth about their health.
Like mostly everyone, we wish for that hurricane to be expressed fully but constantly feel disappointed, thwarted and unresolved – then we stop trying and we take on what is less risky and more comforting.
We long for just one day – one experience of that hurricane. We think it has to be loud. We think it has to be witnessed by thousands of people. So we plan for a huge concert instead of paying attention to the day to day performances.
People come to me asking me how to create balance in their lives. But really the question is how to live life fully – how to have each day be a fulfilling one even in the midst of disappointments and failures.
Here are the paradigm shifts I humbly ask you to consider as possibilities and not as truths:
- Stop looking for the huge breakout concert performance – applaud and acknowledge yourself for the day to day movements forward and the recovery from failures
- Create a context/mission that is worth working towards – and have that burn with the fire of daily practice and refinement – so it does not remain as mere words but has direct small tangible results that can build to a huge crescendo
- Notice if your complaints exist within fulfilling the context or they exist inside of something else
Mr. Sam Simon (The Simpsons' co-creator) was diagnosed with cancer and is giving away his entire fortune. The media is ablaze with the news – I applaud this; we need news like this. However, I say that unless you live the example, this will merely be dinner time conversation for you – "Listen to what the nice dying man did". Or it will be something you consciously choose not to do or adopt – for which I also applaud you for – there is veracity in not following blindly along like sheep.
But if you elect to live life fully, then let not this decision to do so be one of the many decisions that have gone by the wayside of resignation, boredom or chocolate-like dopamine-based distractions.
Shout it aloud from the roof tops to the people in your life – make a promise to your family and your friends about spending more time with them and then actually follow through with structures and (perhaps boring) systems that will make sure that you follow through on the promises.
Let your time in the sun be one where people ages from now will remark "She / He kept their word and that by itself is and was cool."
Warm regards,
Sunil Bhaskaran

Mount Of Olives (I)
Poem by Henry Vaughan
SWEET, sacred hill ! on whose fair brow
My Saviour sate, shall I allow
Language to love,
And idolize some shade, or grove,
Neglecting thee ? such ill-plac'd wit,
Conceit, or call it what you please,
Is the brain's fit,
And mere disease.
Cotswold and Cooper's both have met
With learn褠swains, and echo yet
Their pipes and wit ;
But thou sleep'st in a deep neglect,
Untouch'd by any ; and what need
The sheep bleat thee a silly lay,
That heard'st both reed
And sheepward play ?
Yet if poets mind thee well,
They shall find thou art their hill,
And fountain too.
Their Lord with thee had most to do ;
He wept once, walk'd whole nights on thee :
And from thence?His suff'rings ended?
Unto glory
Was attended.
Being there, this spacious ball
Is but His narrow footstool all ;
And what we think
Unsearchable, now with one wink
He doth comprise ; but in this air
When He did stay to bear our ill
And sin, this hill
Was then His Chair.

US real estate giant Greystar has acquired two adjoining sites in central Melbourne where it is planning to launch its first build-to-rent project on Australian shores.
Greystar, which manages and operates an estimated $160 billion-plus of real estate across 200 markets globally, sounded out the Australian market in 2018 after successfully expanding internationally more than a decade ago.
Greystar pointed to the changing demographics that had led to rising urbanisation in Melbourne and Sydney which had continued to effect the significant issue of housing affordability.
The firm has now revealed plans to re-develop neighbouring properties, located on Yarra and Claremont Streets in South Yarra, into two integrated mixed-use projects comprising ground floor retail, approximately 5,000sq m of office space and over 500 build-to-rent apartments.
Law firm Gadens is advising Greystar on the acquisition and said that the acquisition represents one of the last development opportunities in the area.
"The neighbouring blocks were purchased separately in off-market deals," Gadens said.
Greystar's new $400 million mixed-use precinct will be built on two of the last remaining development sites of scale in the sought-after Forrest Hill Precinct of South Yarra.
Greystar's head of Asia-Pacific Chris Key said as land prices in Australia started to ease, it would help make more build-to-rent projects work.
"A sustained pull-back in offshore buyer demand and financing challenges for both buyers and developers has led to decreasing competition for development opportunities among build-to-sell developers.
"When combined, these dynamics create a set of factors for the emergence of a highly scalable opportunity to establish a new institutional class of rental product in the country."
Greystar's South Yarra developments won't be the first build-to-rent projects to hit the market with a number of established developers proceeding with new builds regardless of government changes in tax and planning rules.
Grocon pioneered build-to-rent with a development within the Commonwealth Games athletes' village on the Gold Coast and has plans to launch 400 apartments for executive-style tenants in a major build-to-rent project to the heart of Melbourne's Southbank
Other major developers such as Mirvac, Lendlease and Stockland are also trying to make potential build-to-rent developments stack up with existing policy settings.

Students and alumni from North Warwickshire and South Leicestershire College are set to represent the UK on the world's stage following their selection for Squad UK as part of the international WorldSkills competition. The talented trio will compete for the chance to represent the UK at the bi-annual event in Shanghai in 2021 known as the 'Skills Olympics'.
Former student and Nuneaton chef Chloe Lloyd-Hughes will compete in the culinary arts category while former student Saskia Godley and current student Ellie Ruff are both due to take on challenges in visual merchandising. All three have been invited to join the prestigious WorldSkills UK Talent Development Programme after excelling in its national skills competitions, the finals of which were held in November at WorldSkills UK LIVE at the NEC in Birmingham.
The international WorldSkills competition in Shanghai will feature over 1,000 of the world's most talented apprentices and students competing in over 50 different skills as they battle it out to be named the World Champion in their chosen skill.
Ben Blackledge, Deputy Chief Executive of WorldSkills UK said: "Congratulations to Chloe, Saskia and Ellie. This is a life-changing moment for them. All three have already excelled in the WorldSkills UK regional and national competitions and now they are facing an even tougher test as they look to secure their place to represent the UK on the world stage. They have already dedicated hundreds of hours to improving their skills to get to this level and have many months of hard work ahead of them with our training managers enabling them to transform their careers and lives."
The trio will undertake an 18-month training programme with WorldSkills UK, supported by North Warwickshire and South Leicestershire College, and will face the ultimate selection test in Spring 2021 when the team that will compete at WorldSkills Shanghai is named.
Marion Plant, OBE FCGI, Principal and Chief Executive of North Warwickshire and South Leicestershire College, who is also deputy chair and trustee of WorldSkills, said: "This is fantastic news; we're very proud of Chloe, Saskia and Ellie. Chloe and Saskia have already competed their qualifications with us and are now making their way successfully in their chosen industries. Ellie is doing extremely well on her current course and is on track to achieve her qualifications next year. We are sure that competing as part of Squad UK will provide all three with an unforgettable experience that will help them to grow and develop both personally and professionally.
"All three have benefited from some fantastic support from their tutors who consistently go the extra mile to help them practice and prepare themselves as well as they can. We believe that competitions are an excellent way of enabling students to practice real-world employability skills, inspiring them to get enthusiastic about their future career options. We wish all three Squad UK members the very best of luck as they work towards the chance of being named as part of the UK team heading to Shanghai in 2021."
The previous WorldSkills Competition was in Kazan, Russia in 2019 where Team UK was awarded 19 medals. By taking part in the competition, WorldSkills UK identifies global best practice, research and insight that will help the new UK government to deliver world class standards in technical education.
Chloe Lloyd-Hughes aged 20 from Nuneaton successfully completed a Level 3 professional cookery qualification at the college's Nuneaton Campus in June 2019 having progressed from Level 1. Chloe has already enjoyed success in WorldSkills picking up the Gold medal for culinary arts in 2018, securing a fast-track place to the UK finals in 2019.
Chloe maintains that competition experience is helpful for developing self-confidence and teamwork and enables her to build networks within the catering industry. Chloe currently works as a chef at the Sunnyside Inn in Nuneaton but has an ambition to work in a fine-dining restaurant in the future. She said that her tutors regularly gave up their time to help her train for competitions and provided her with many fantastic opportunities to gain experience and improve her skills.
On hearing that she had been selected for Squad UK, Chloe said, "It's amazing news. I am so pleased because all my hard work has finally paid off. It would be a once in a lifetime experience to go to China and I am really looking forward to the challenge of trying to win a place in the UK team."
Saskia Godley, 19, from Stoney Stanton has plans to set the world of retail alight having completed her course in graphic design last year. She said, "The facilities at the college were amazing and the tutors were knowledgeable and supportive. I have been lucky to be inspired with a career that provides so many potential opportunities. I was delighted to hear that I had secured a place in Squad UK and if I was selected to compete in China, I would be buzzing."
Ellie Ruff, 17 from Nuneaton, a student of graphic design at the college's creative arts Hinckley Campus, won a Silver medal at the WorldSkills UK LIVE competition at the NEC in Birmingham in November 2019. She said that coming to college was 'the best choice ever' and she is really enjoying her course. Ellie is keen to make a name for herself and wants to become a graphic designer after she has been to university. She believes that success in skills competitions will help her to secure a place at the university of her choice.
Ellie said, "I never thought that I would have an opportunity like this, and I plan to work really hard to try and make it to China. I have never been anywhere like that and it would be such an amazing experience."

I know nothing about photography. I want a camera that won't be too bulky but will be reliable, sturdy, and have a good zoom and a good picture. I'll probably be taking it everywhere from indoors to long backpacking trips, if that matters. Any suggestions at least of where to start?
Also, have any of you used those digital printing centers for your photos (found at Walmart and that sort of place)? I would prefer to have physical pictures. Are those easy to use and do they work well?

Most cleaners will dust down the phones and keyboards in your office at least once a week, and even go over them with a damp cloth, but is that really enough to get rid off all the bacteria, dust, make-up and other detritus that builds up on your communication equipment every day?
In the past, it wasn't uncommon for office workers to be the sole user of their telephone or computer. Today, with hot-desking and flexible working, there's a lot more shared equipment, and this has increased the risk of cross-infection. It's why we recommend that all phones, handsets, headsets, buttons, and cords are regularly and thoroughly cleaned with alcohol wipes and sanitisers. Keyboards, a particularly rich breeding ground for bacteria, need the same treatment in addition to vacuuming and brushing out the dust and crumbs that have collected underneath the keys.
An average office keyboard may harbor 400 times more bacteria than a toilet seat, so it's no exaggeration to say that they represent a significant health hazard, especially with the increase in office workers eating at their desk.
80% of common infections are transmitted by touch, and a typical office worker might come into contact with up to 10 million bacteria every day, many of which will cause illnesses serious enough to warrant an absence from work. Some viruses, including influenza and the common cold, can survive on hard surfaces, like desks, telephones and keyboards for up to 24 hours.
You can't eliminate all the bacteria and viruses, and a basic clean is always better than nothing, but there is no substitute for a deep clean using alcohol wipes and sanitisers. A deep clean will have a real impact on the levels of viruses and bacteria lurking on office equipment and can help cut illnesses and sick leave by reducing the risk of infection.
Billions are lost to the economy every year through staff illness, and with average absences lasting 9 days, taking steps to reduce the risks of infection from unsanitary office equipment will always be time and money well spent.
