Digital Writing Competition
Write your way to a job with 2Stroke! 2Stroke is a Cape Town-based award winning digital marketing agency. They're looking for a new generation of writers to join their content team and are offering two internships – starting in early 2014 – to the winners of their 'WORDSTA' writing competition. The chosen candidates will be given a three month writing internship where they will work on live projects conducting research and writing copy on a wide range of topics. During their time with 2Stroke they will be tutored, guided and enlightened by a team of experienced writers, digital marketers and PR professionals. And the agency will even pay interns a basic allowance to cover their every-day expenses. The details: Entering is pretty straightforward. Register online (follow instructions), select the topic you want to write on, let your imagination / pen / fingers do their thing and post your piece. It does not need to be a magnum opus … 600 – 800 words will do. Once it's live, get your friends to like it, share it and comment on it. At the closing date the agency will evaluate all the posts and pick their winners. Scoring will be largely based on writing ability, but 2Stroke will add bonus points for pieces that have been shared, rated positively or attracted large numbers of comments. Competition opened on 11 November 2013 and closes on 31 December 2013. Winners will be announced on 24 January 2014. Interns are expected to start their internships on Monday 3 February 2014.

Make a Difference! Volunteer
Community service is a selfless act of kindness undertaken by volunteers to improve their neighborhood. It is generally intended to promote good fellowship. Volunteering also promotes skill development, socialization, allows one to make contacts for possible employment, and to test-the-waters before selecting a field of further study. While some volunteers might receive specific training in the areas they plan to pursue as a career, such as medicine, education or emergency rescue, others serve their community on an as-needed basis, such as in response to a natural disaster or helping out at a retirement home or animal shelter. People have the option to volunteer as much of their own time as they are willing, still allowing them to remain focused on their personal lives. Young people are encouraged to volunteer not only to gain life experience but also for character building. Another incentive to become involved in community service is to include the capability gained in the motivational letter required for admission to a university or college. It is recommended that students volunteer in subjects and projects that they have an interest in. Students could volunteer at soup kitchens, museums, retirement homes, and school development projects, such as establishing extra mural workshops in horticulture, photography, amateur dramatics, and journalism or coaching scholars in starting a small business. What a volunteer puts into their volunteering experiences will show immensely in their character. Most people have toiled with the notion of wanting to find some way to give back to their community, and help those who cannot help themselves. Those in this situation have been able to have discussions with people who may benefit from some guidance, brightening up their day and making them smile. Others have volunteered their time at a hospital and aided the elderly, having conversations with them and listening to stories of a time long ago. Volunteers can also help out pre-schools by reading to children or teaching them crafts. One of the easiest things about volunteering is getting involved. There are countless organizations and charities that are always looking for an extra person to make a difference in someone's life. Here are some ideas: Volunteer to do office work at a local non-profit agency; set up a web page for them. Share a talent through teaching a class. Help township resident's paint and repair their homes. Make maps of local parks, libraries or historic sites. Adopt a pothole and raise funds to repair it. Help fix a run-down public playground. Identify corners where bushes and trees make it difficult for drivers to see. Create a campaign to encourage biking and walking. Volunteer at an animal shelter; help clean up and play with the animals. Become a foster pet-owner; some animal shelters have temporary foster care programs — you take care of a pet until they can find a permanent home for it. Words by Theresa Lutge-Smith...Read More
What Makes A Homepage Brilliant!
You never get a second chance to make a first impression! For this reason your homepage — your virtual front door and showcase to the world — is undoubtedly one of the most important pages on your website. It must be visually striking and has to be slick in its navigation. If a new visitor is not impressed straight away they will simply click away! What makes a homepage brilliant? Clearly answer "Who we are," "What we do," and "What can the visitor find here" questions. Even if you are a well-known brand it is still important to clarify these standard searches. The content must be succinct and address your target audience, written in uncomplicated language. The homepage is the first thing Search Engines see when crawling your website, which makes it the most important page of your site. Increase your domain authority and website rankings by engaging in active SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and back-link building campaigns. Make sure your homepage contains a fair amount of content. The aim of a well-designed user-friendly homepage is to compel the visitor to identify with your value-proposition and explore the rest of your site. Utilize the homepage to introduce prospects to your value proposition through persuasive content. Avoid 'flashy' objects that might get in the way of browsing. Incorporate Calls-To-Action (CTA) to direct visitors to the next logical step, such as "Read More", "Free Consultation," or "Buy Now." The objective is to navigate visitors further down the funnel. Calls-To-Action turn your homepage into a mouthpiece that allows you to communicate with customers and prospects to facilitate customer relationship management. The best homepages are active, always offering something new to reflect the needs, problems, and questions of their visitors. The intention of a well-designed home page (and the rest of the site) is to build mutual trust; anticipate unmet requirements and offer solutions to problems; invite constructive comment and an opportunity to express grievances; communicate information that is of personal interest to your target audience; and steer visitors to take action. Accordingly, effective homepages utilize inspired layout, Call-To-Action placement, white space complimented by color and font choices, illustration, and other supporting elements such videos, blog icons and company symbols.

Progress With Nickel Exploration And Regional Data Acquisition In Brazil
Lara Exploration Ltd. is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with Falconbridge Brasil Ltda., now a subsidiary of Xstrata plc and managed by Xstrata Nickel, which will allow Lara to access the Falconbridge regional data covering Lara's properties in the Araguaia Belt but outside the existing joint venture between the companies. Lara understands that Xstrata Nickel's management is also supporting the second year work commitments on the joint venture areas, though final board approval is still pending.
Araguaia Generative Program
Lara currently holds a 100% interest in 250,000 hectares of exploration concessions in the Araguaia Belt around areas held by Falconbridge Brasil Ltda. and the existing joint venture areas between the two companies. Lara has been conducting prospecting and reconnaissance sampling work on this ground since April 2006 that has identified a number of targets.
On November 1, 2006, Lara signed a letter agreement with Falconbridge (Xstrata Nickel) whereby Xstrata Nickel will provide access to its regional airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys and photogeological interpretations covering Lara's properties in the Araguaia belt. In exchange, Lara will issue to Xstrata Nickel a total of 15,000 units, with each unit comprising one common share and one non-transferable common share purchase warrant of Lara. Each warrant shall permit Xstrata Nickel to acquire one additional common share for the price of CDN$1.30 during a period of two years. The issuance of such units is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Joint Venture
Xstrata Nickel may earn a 70% interest in Lara's 43,000 hectare Pará Nickel Project in the Araguaia Belt by paying US$110,000 ($ 40,000 received to date) and spending US$3.89 million on exploration by June 2009, under the terms of an agreement signed in June 2004 (Lara Press Release February 15, 2006). Prior to the takeover by Xstrata, Falconbridge completed airborne magnetic, radiometric and electromagnetic surveys, surface sampling and 661 metres of diamond drilling. The joint venture is in its second year, during which time Xstrata Nickel must invest a minimum of US$480,000 in exploration of the property. Lara has now been advised that budgets have been approved to meet this commitment.

Long journey of reconciliation ahead at Canada's journalism schools
This story was funded by the J-Source Patreon campaign.
University journalism programs across Canada say they need more money, staff and time to properly educate students about Indigenous history and the impact of residential schools — nearly three years after being told to make such education mandatory.
In June 2015, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) released 94 Calls to Action, a list of actions the commission says are necessary to advance reconciliation between Indigenous peoples and non-Indigenous Canadians. Call to Action 86 called on media and journalism schools to include mandatory instruction on the history of Indigenous peoples, including the history and legacy of residential schools, Indigenous-Crown relations and Indigenous law, including international human rights laws.
J-Source emailed a survey to 21 journalism programs at 19 schools across Canada last fall to learn if, and how, they are responding to this Call to Action. Schools with graduate and undergraduate journalism programs or majors in journalism were contacted, as well as colleges that offer journalism programs in partnership with universities. Colleges with journalism or media programs not affiliated with universities were not contacted. Seventeen schools in Nova Scotia, Ontario, Saskatchewan, Quebec, Alberta and British Columbia responded. All responses were by email and were received between October 2017 and March 2018. J-Source was not the only organization tracking how journalism and media schools have responded to this Call to Action. CBC's "Beyond 94" project details the response made to each of the TRC's Calls to Action. Their findings can be found at the dedicated site, "Beyond 94." Reporting about Call to Action 86 can be found here.
J-Source's survey asked schools about how journalism courses covered Indigenous history before the TRC's Calls to Action were released, and how the journalism program responded to these Calls. It also included questions about if content about Indigenous history was taught by Indigenous people, and if these instructors are university employees. Schools were also asked if they have a budget devoted to Indigenous education, what supports are available to Indigenous students, including journalism-specific scholarships, and what barriers they face in responding to the TRC's Call to Action. Most respondents answered the survey in its entirety; others sent brief emails describing their efforts.
Their responses reveal varied approaches to implementing this Call to Action. Some are using it to bolster efforts that existed before the TRC's final report. Others have modified current journalism courses to include material about Indigenous history, or require students to take courses from other disciplines about this topic. Some are creating specific courses on Indigenous history or Indigenous reporting, although not all these courses are mandatory.
Schools report a desire to teach their students about these topics well. They want students to report on Indigenous communities and the issues that affect them sensitively and accurately. Journalism instructors are quick to describe the important role journalists play in educating the public about Indigenous communities, and hopefully in advancing reconciliation. Yet, these educators often face the same constraints teaching about Indigenous communities that journalists experience reporting about them: a lack of adequate resources and time.
Slow beginnings: Reconciliation started before the TRC report
Many respondents said their programs included some education about Indigenous issues before the Calls to Action were released. This was done through courses devoted to the topic, either offered through the journalism program or another program, or by including units or lectures about Indigenous communities in mandatory journalism courses. Some schools offered one-time special topics courses Indigenous issues and the media.
Individual professors often decided if, and how, to include this material. It was not mandatory. Professors who chose to teach about Indigenous People and history were often "making it up as they went along," said John Kelly, who used to teach journalism at Carleton University in Ottawa and is now an adjunct professor at the school. Kelly, a member of the Haida First Nation, would often discuss work by Indigenous reporters when teaching required journalism courses. He gave guest lectures in other classes about properly reporting in Indigenous communities, something he still does today.
"I'll probably keep on doing it until they carry me away," Kelly said. In his opinion schools have improved. Students at Carleton are required to take Canadian history courses, and these include content about Indigenous Peoples. This was required before the TRC's report.
Other schools have similar requirements. In Saskatchewan, all University of Regina pre-journalism students must take an Indigenous studies course. The school also shares faculty and resources with the First Nations University of Canada's Indigenous Communication Arts program.
When Western University in London, Ont. reorganized its Master of Media in Journalism and Communications program in 2014, it included a mandatory workshop about reporting in Indigenous communities. In Toronto, Ryerson University secured a grant to expand its education on Indigenous issues in its journalism program before the TRC's final report, Gavin Adamson, coordinator of the school's undergraduate journalism program, told J-Source in an email.
Kelly said all Canadian universities "need to go as far as they can possibly go" to teach students about Indigenous history, he said.
It's a slow process – even at schools celebrated for their education on this topic. The University of British Columbia has prioritized Indigenous education in its graduate journalism program for years. Program director Alfred Hermida told J-Source in the school's survey response that it's an area of "strategic focus." Mandatory journalism classes include discussions about Indigenous history, how Indigenous people are portrayed in the media, and newsroom diversity.
It wasn't always that way.
The school's Reporting in Indigenous Communities course has run since 2011. Developed by the CBC's Duncan McCue, the elective course focuses exclusively on reporting about Indigenous communities. Students immerse themselves with local First Nations and report on issues important to these communities, while maintaining editorial control.
McCue, who is Ojibwa, was teaching at the school before he developed the course. Back then, a lunchtime lecture he was asked to give was the only time students learned about reporting in Indigenous communities during the two-year program. McCue said he thought it was "ridiculous" to think students could learn anything of substance in such a short period of time. He developed his course to address that gap.
New courses created as a result of the TRC
The TRC's Calls to Action do not specify how schools should educate their students about Indigenous history. Some professors think it should be taught in-depth in a specialized course; others say it should be incorporated across courses. Some schools are discussing how to incorporate Indigenous content across all programs – not just journalism.
Some schools have developed courses exclusively about reporting on Indigenous issues and communities. These courses aren't always mandatory. Ryerson began offering a special topics course about reporting on Indigenous communities in the 2016-2017 academic year. As Adamson explained in an email to J-Source, it's online so as many students could take it as soon as possible.
This fall, Humber College in Toronto, which offers a bachelor degree in journalism, expects to offer a new course devoted to reporting on Indigenous communities, program coordinator Dan Rowe told J-Source in an email. This course will cover the areas identified by the TRC. It will not be mandatory, Rowe said. Rowe told J-Source that the TRC's report was released at the same time as a planned curriculum renewal. The school decided to incorporate meeting the TRC's Calls to Action in the review.
John Kelly said such courses should be mandatory. If they're not, students could produce what he calls "mosquito journalism" where reporters come to a community, report the news and then leave – without taking the time to get to know the people or understand the issues.
At Western, Mark Rayner, coordinator of the Master in journalism and communication program, said there are hopes to include an elective course in the second semester of the program taught by an Indigenous journalist. Developing this will take time. Western's program is only a year, so there isn't room to include another required course, he said in an email to J-Source.
Other schools focus on having students practise reporting about Indigenous communities. This year, the mandatory senior journalism seminar at St. Thomas University in Fredericton is devoted to Indigenous history and reconciliation. Students will interview Indigenous communities across the province. Their work will be published on a website devoted to this project.
In Halifax, students at the University of King's College have partnered with kukukwes.com, an independent news site focused on Indigenous communities in Atlantic Canada. Students have profiled missing and murdered Indigenous women and reported on how schools are responding to the Calls to Action. King's also tracks how many stories on the school's portal of student work, signalhfx.com, mention Indigenous issues. That number has increased during the last couple academic years, program director Tim Currie told J-Source in an email. Some professors also assign students reporting assignments about Indigenous issues.
The school did not offer mandatory journalism courses exclusively about Indigenous issues before the Calls to Action, Currie said. But it's increased Indigenous content in courses since the TRC report. The school's president, William Lahey taught a civics unit in the journalism program's mandatory fundamentals of journalism class. He covered topics including treaty rights and Indigenous rights and the courts' role in interpreting both, land claims and different forms of Indigenous governments. Lahey, who is not Indigenous, also teaches law at Dalhousie University and said law schools are teaching more about Indigenous people and history than they used to. (The TRC issued a Call to Action to law schools to require all students to take a course in Indigenous people and the law. This call mentions the same content journalism schools are being asked to teach.)
Even schools with established curriculum about Indigenous issues are striving to do more. At the University of Regina, students and faculty have organized conferences about relationships between the media and Indigenous people since the TRC's report was released. This semester, the University of British Columbia will offer a new course that discusses postcolonial media criticism and its relationship to journalists' professional practice.
Other schools, such as Kwantlen Polytechnic University in Surrey B.C. and Wilfrid Laurier University in Brantford, Ont. require journalism students to take introductory courses about Indigenous issues. These are not journalism-specific courses.
However, one respondent, the University of Ottawa, said the school hasn't made any response. Gabriela Perdomo Paez, coordinator of the school's digital journalism program, said integrating Indigenous education into the journalism program has been discussed. No action has been taken yet, Perdoma Paez told J-Source in an email.
Mount Royal University in Calgary has rejected creating a mandatory course about Indigenous issues. But the school isn't ignoring the topic. Student journalism often focuses on Indigenous issues. The TRC's report in 2015 came out as the university was developing and launching a strategic plan to Indigenize curriculum across all programs at the university. After talking with several First Nations leaders, they chose against creating a mandatory course specifically about Indigenous issues. Having a specific course would be like "checking off boxes as opposed to really coming to understand what it means to be part of the Indigenous community and what the Indigenous community has been," said Brad Clark, director of the journalism program, noting mixed responses to mandatory classes at other schools. Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, B.C. has been incorporating Indigenous content in its journalism program for years. An Indigenous journalist, who has since left the position, was hired to help strengthen the school's connections with Indigenous communities, program director Charles Hays wrote in an email. The school has not taken on new initiatives because of the TRC, but has instead decided to focus on continuing what it was already doing to incorporate Indigenous content across disciplines.
Not all mandatory courses that discuss Indigenous communities may give students the complete picture of Indigenous life in Canada. Several schools said their journalism programs include material about Indigenous communities in courses about diversity in the media, or reporting on marginalized groups.
"That's not the sum total of the Indigenous experience in this country," said McCue, who has spoken at schools across Canada about how to prepare students to report on Indigenous communities. "You run the risk of narrowing students' conception of Indigeneity if that's all you focus on." Journalists need to avoid relying on tropes like warriors and victims in their coverage, and professors need to do the same when they teach, he said.
Schools need to hire more qualified professors
Many schools said their greatest challenge in responding to this Call to Action was finding a way to do it well – and quickly – with limited resources and time. There are factors they can't control: course changes need to be approved; new courses take time to develop. (McCue said he spent about six months developing his course and received a grant from UBC to create it.) Department heads can't control the size of their budgets.
But universities don't need to bust the bank to increase Indigenous content – although they need to be willing to invest in it financially. Indigenous content can be incorporated into all journalism courses – McCue has spoken about it in sports journalism classes. Journalists for Human Rights offers free workshops about reporting in Indigenous communities. But universities need to be willing to spend money: guest speakers should be compensated; schools should help pay for students' travel costs if they need to travel to cover Indigenous communities.
But the resource universities should spend the most time investing in is hiring qualified staff to teach about Indigenous content, educators agree. This means hiring professional Indigenous journalists, or non-Indigenous journalists with established expertise reporting about Indigenous communities.
Shannon Avison has taught at First Nations University in Regina for three decades, and for the past few years in the University of Regina's journalism program. She's not Indigenous herself, but considers herself a "grateful ally" to Indigenous peoples. She's written for Indigenous publications across Canada for years.
But she understands her limitations. Avison has researched Indigenous media in Canada and has contacts with Indigenous journalists throughout the country. Still, she knows she can't adequately teach about the social conditions of life in First Nations communities, or the impacts residential schools have on families. Students can use film and literature to supplement class lectures, she said. Creative works can give a better sense of the social and cultural life of Indigenous Peoples. But Indigenous professors offer the best stories to go with historical facts, she sad. "The stories is how you learn things."
Finding those professors can be challenging. McCue said, in his opinion, there's not currently enough Indigenous professors to fill these spots, but he also doesn't think it's necessary.
"This is not just an 'Indigenous Peoples' issue' this is a Canadian issue, and it's something that Canadians need to grapple with," he said, echoing statements the TRC made in its report. "Likewise, teaching Indigenous content in the classroom shouldn't just be the responsibility of Indigenous People. It should be the responsibility of all journalism professors, regardless of their class, gender, creed. If we're going to prepare Canadian journalism students to report in Canada, then it's absolutely essential that we teach them something about how to report on Indigenous communities, and that should be done by all the experts in the journalism community."
Establishing relationships and trust
Professors are quick to point out how important it is for journalists to understand Indigenous communities.
William Lahey thinks it's crucial journalism students understand how Indigenous law works in Canada. This means knowing how the courts and Constitution relate to Indigenous law, and how Indigenous communities are governed. "Journalists play a critical and important role for ensuring there's accountability for how the authority to govern is exercised, and that applies with Indigenous government as much as it does to every other kind or order of government that we have in Canada," he said. If journalists don't know how it works, they can't properly report on it – or critique it.
Proper reporting on Indigenous communities requires taking the time to establish relationships and trust with these communities. The best way students can learn about these communities is to spend time with them outside of the classroom, said Avison. The best courses are developed when schools establish relationships with Indigenous communities.
Spending time to understand an issue and the people involved it is something journalists should do regardless of the assignment. But as McCue noted it's especially important when reporting on Indigenous communities to build those bridges because of a historic mistrust many in these communities have of the media.
However, students need to understand the different cultural expectations between journalism and Indigenous communities, said Jeffrey Dvorkin, the director of the journalism program at the University of Toronto's Scarborough campus. The school partners with Centennial College to offer a degree in journalism. White students are the minority at the Scarborough campus said Dvorkin. The program has focused on helping students report about different cultural communities since before the TRC's report. He said it's important for journalists to understand the important role of culture in their reporting – whether their own culture, or the culture they're reporting about.
Dvorkin was working at CBC's The National during the Oka Crisis in 1990. CBC didn't always cover the story well, he said. It can be difficult to balance newsrooms' demands of deadlines and ratings with a community's desire to be portrayed accurately, said Dvorkin, and both Indigenous and non-Indigenous reporters have to tread carefully to maintain sources amid cultural protocols and internal community debates. Dvorkin can't say if his reporting would have been better had he known more about Indigenous culture during the Oka Crisis – although he's asked himself these questions for years. But it would have been different.
"It's just those points of convergence where job expectations, culture and the news agenda pound into one another and there's no nice outcome from any of it. But that's a pretty good reflection of the reality of the situation in this country," he said.
McCue said he sees coverage of Indigenous issues improving – and it will get stronger as more journalists learn how to do it well.
"My great hope for change is in the next generation of journalists. They're the ones that are really going to make a difference," McCue said.

XYZ health clinic has operated in the local area for 10 years. Due to an economic decline as a result of the state's increasing number of uninsured residents, XYZ health clinic must adjust its current service offerings in order to recoup lost revenue. The state has elected to opt out of the Medicaid expansion program; therefore, many of the residents remain uninsured. This has proven extremely problematic for XYZ as many of the patients in the area are low income, but do not qualify for traditional Medicaid. As a result, XYZ's payer mix is unfavorable as 33% of the residents have public insurance, 12% are uninsured, and only 5% are covered by private insurance. XYZ would like to implement telehealth as part of a new strategy to reach a wider demographic of patients.

Driven to compete
They have designed it, created and modified the components, and built the vehicle. Now it's time to put it up against other student - designed vehicles in a fuel-efficiency challenge.
The Mohawk College eco-car team is gearing up to compete in the Shell Eco-marathon Challenge in Sonoma, California.
The competition is based on building a fuel-efficient prototype – a single-seat vehicle – or a two-seater concept vehicle. The vehicles can be powered with lithium ion batteries, hydrogen or gas.
The 10-member Mohawk team will compete in the battery prototype division.
Project manager Jason LaPorta, now in his sixth semester in Electrical Engineering Technology, has
spent all three years at Mohawk on the eco-car team. He joined for the hands-on work and says the learning process, the teamwork and his leadership experience have given him a head-start in landing a job.
It is a demanding commitment. At least one day a week, the team puts in an eight-hour day and most days are three to four hours. By the third week of March, LaPorta has put in more than 160 hours in 2019.
Each year, new students come on board, who learn from the older ones. They are all guided by faculty members who lend their expertise and advice. It's just like getting a start-up off the ground, he says.
"It's been a great experience. I realize how difficult it is to get something to work. There are always challenges to overcome. It's frustrating but it's important."

1. Catcalling is still happening and it never stops being effing awful
Urgh. Being catcalled is the absolute WORST. Is it too much to ask that we be allowed to walk down the street without some guy shouting at us from the sidelines, telling us how much he likes our tits, following us half a mile down the road and then shouting about how ungrateful we are and that we should be able to accept a compliment. Please stop guys, seriously. You all sound like pervy uncles. Even if you wanna 'compliment a girl on her necklace', maybe say it to yourself in your head and ask yourself a series of sensible questions, like 'do I sound creepy?' or 'am I going to make this girl feel uncomfortable?' The answer to these two is 'yes'. Unfortunately, some men still have a lot to learn about street etiquette, and it's up to us to educate them in a little class I like to call 'How Not To Be A Douche 101'.
2. Abortions still aren't legal everywhere in the UK and Ireland
Roe v Wade happened in America 42 years ago, and changed the landscape of feminism by affording women the right to choose independence and a job other than 'housewife'. However, in 2016 abortion is still a pretty tense subject - no thanks to the continued efforts of anti-abortion groups who use scare tactics to try and dissuade those wanting or needing an abortion from following through with their decision.
In Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, women can still cannot legally get an abortion. Therefore, if you are raped, you are not allowed an abortion. If you are a victim of incestual rape, you are not allowed an abortion. Lets just let that sink in properly...
Reproductive rights are a big deal. Huge. Denying women the right to decide what to do with their own bodies is a violation of human rights and denies women the right to a life they want and choose for themselves. Now, that's not equal, is it? Women know what's best for women, and we should have the right to decide.
3. Pregnancy Discrimination is still a thing in some places (yep, seriously)
These days, we get pretty good maternity and paternity leave, which most companies let you split how you wish with your other half. But, amazingly, discrimination in the workplace with regards to pregnancy still happens. Still.
Hard to believe, right? Well, set your mystified peepers on this firm, who fired a woman because "she might get pregnant". Not because she was pregnant (which, don't get me wrong, is totally not ok either), but because she might get pregnant, one day. The woman was sacked after 'her boss assumed that because she was planning to marry, she was likely to get pregnant'. She was fired over something that hadn't even happened yet!
Luckily, the situation landed the firm in a lawsuit in which the woman in question was awarded nearly €11,000 in compensation for discrimination.
4. Pissed off men STILL moan about there not being an International Men's Day
Only, THERE IS. This year, comedian Richard Herring spent his International Women's Day tediously telling an assload of embittered people on Twitter who felt that IWD was 'sexist' that yes, there is an International Men's Day, so don't worry. It's in November. You can google it.
IMD also attempts to promote gender equality, and improve gender relations - of which all those offending Twitter folk probably need a good education in. The problem is, the importance of International Women's Day is stifled every year by those using the hashtag #meninism and moaning that it's sexist that women have their own day whilst they, the middle-aged white men of the world, do not get the same kind of privilege. The irony of course lies in the reason why we need an International Women's Day in the first place.
5. Women continue to earn less than men
There are actually more women than ever in formal paid work and we currently make up around 40% of the global workforce. Which is amazing, considering the distance we've come in 100 years. But it's still not good enough.
The pay gap continues to close in, but we aren't there yet: a recent study by the International Labour Organisation (ILO) of 83 countries found that women earn 10-30% less than men. According to the ILO, the present trend indicates that it would take another 75 years for equal pay to be achieved. Which is only slightly depressing.
6. Girls are being overly sexualised by the media
In order to explain this point, I'm going to need the help of kid wizard and all round lovely guy, Daniel Radcliffe:
And that, my friends, is what we are dealing with. The sooner this changes, the better.
7. Instagram is shaming us for having nipples. In 2016.
So. Instagram wont let us show our nipples, huh? But men can show theirs. Sure, that makes sense…. NAT. Hundreds of censored boobs and an awesome #freethenipple movement later, and Insta still won't budge on their No-Nipple policy, which applies to ladies only.
Photos of post-mastectomy and women actively breastfeeding is ok, says the photo giant. But, for example, a picture of my nipple just hanging out, being cool, would be an instant take-down. For this my nipples, as I'm sure everyone else's do, are feeling extremely rejected and discriminated against.
So why are we not allowed the same nip privilege as men here? Instagram cite "safety reasons" for the need to exclude the lady nipple from the types of nipples you're allowed to see, but men's nipples are A-ok. Which is why people chose to highlight the ludicrous nature of the ban by using photos of male nipples to cover their own in the photographs. Just let our ta-tas run free already Instagram, for crying out loud.
8. Women still struggle to get into power jobs
GAH. These glass ceilings appear to be made of bullet proof glass. Because no matter how close we get to it, it seems impossible to break. As Sheryl Sandberg said in 2013: "Women are not making it to the top of any profession in the world." And she would know, being the chief operating officer of Facebook and all. Further up you may remember we said that more women are in work than ever before, which is awesome. But the amount of women rising to the top remains relatively low, which suuuucks. Even the highest positions are hard to get for us ladies: only seven of 150 elected heads of state in the world are women, and only 11 out of 192 are heads of government. It's nothing short of depressing.
9. Slut-shaming and rape culture is ever prevalent, and it's so worrying
Slut-shaming continues to be a huge problem, especially when it comes to rape culture. On 7th April 2013, a 15 year old girl called Rehtaeh Parsons committed suicide. The cause for her suicide was that she had endured more than a year of relentless taunting and humiliation after a picture her reported rape began circulation on social media. When the case went to trial, the man who shared the picture, which he was also in, walked free. This is one of the worst cases of slut-shaming and shows the ugly nature of rape culture.
Slut-shaming and rape culture culminates itself in the blaming or disbelief of a victim. But slut-shaming regularly seeps into our everyday lives, and sometimes it goes almost completely unnoticed: high school writer Sabrina Nelson says that she regularly hears her peers at school - both boys and girls - calling girls 'sluts' without seemingly knowing what they're saying, unaware of its impact.
Today, the act of calling someone a 'slut' is a form of subjugation that relegates girls into a certain role or position or personality without, it seems, the flutter of an eyelid. It is a culture that blames a victim and identifies with the assailant. It berates a victim for what they wear, or how much they drink. "She was asking for it" is the tagline of rape culture. It's the act of of passing sexual harassment off as 'banter'. It's all these things combined that stop victims reporting rapes, and cause suicides like Rehtaeh Parson's. It's hard to cover the importance of what opening a dialogue can do for these victims in so few words, but it is the first in many important steps that we must take in order to eradicate such issues.
10. Last but not least, to get anywhere we NEED to get rid of White Feminism. Like, right now.
Now, this can get a little confusing, so bear with me. White Feminism is feminism that ignores intersectionalism. However, that's not to say that all feminists who are white are White Feminists, but most White Feminists are white. Confused yet?
White Feminism is an umbrella term for a group that not only excludes race, but basically excludes all those who are not white, straight or cisgendered (the opposite of transgender). White Feminism is a shitty thing because white people don't have to think about and deal with things like their race on a daily basis. For example, at the moment trans women need feminism more than ever: as of 18th August, 16 trans women have been killed in America so far this year, the majority of them black. These are the women that need to be included in feminism and, for the most part transgender women's rights are seen as a natural extension of feminism. Yet some feminists still refuse to accept trans women into feminism, refusing them space on both a physical and intellectual level. (Yeah we're pointing at you, Germaine Greer. And you, Gloria Steinem. You guys used to be cool.)
Women who are not cis do not experience misogyny in the same way that white women do. We have to remember this, support those who desperately need a voice more than us, provide them the space they deserve, invite them onto our platform and take care not to silence them.
So what's next?
Whilst we have made strong strides towards equality, we still have a long way to go. The road may be rough, because feminism is not without its imperfections and complications, and sometimes it'll feel so shitty and you'll want to give up and just go watch Netflix for the foreseeable future. But even the smallest of steps can make the biggest of impacts.
It's all very well to highlight how flawed this world can be, but it's the ones who take that information, ask how we can change it, and make that happen that matter. Get talking, engage in the debate. Grab a seat and lean in. Don't give up ladies, because equality will be so worth it.

Jewish Museum in Munich
The Jewish Museum in Munich has been inaugurated in March 2007.
It is located at St.-Jakobs-Platz, adjacent to Viktualienmarkt and Marienplatz, in the very centre of Munich.
St.-Jakobs-Platz has long been under construction, but now appears re-designed and forms the Jewish center of Munich.
The architecture is very modern and symbolic, an impression you shouldn't miss when visiting our beautiful city.
Three important buildings surround the place:
First and most impressive, the new main synagogue. The lower part reminds of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, whereas the upper part shows transparency in steel and glass.
Independently if you like the style of the synagogue or not, it has certainly become a landmark of Munich and sets standards in modern architecture. It was completed in November 2006, more than sixty years after the November pogrom and the destruction of the city's synagogues.
Second, the Jewish Community Center that is run by the Jewish community in Munich.
It is a meeting place for the community and provides additional services like a kindergarten, an elementary school, a youth center, administration, auditoriums and a restaurant.
The photo was taken during inauguration; normally you don't see long queues of people waiting :-)
Third, and probably most interesting for tourists, the Jewish Museum.
The ground floor is surrounded by glass that not only serves as windows, but also belongs to the exhibition itself: Testimonials from different persons have been written onto the glass in English and German.
Before visiting the museum, you should walk around the building and read the different notes.
At first I was a bit disappointed by the museum, because the inside is rather sober with grey concrete walls, but after visiting the permanent exhibition I changed my mind.
With innovative ideas like the map of Munich and movable signboards you get to know episodes in the life of real Jewish persons who lived in Munich. If you put the signboard onto the right spot on the map, you'll also see the corresponding picture on the screen.
Apart from the permanent exhibition in the basement, there are always temporary exhibitions in the 1st and 2nd floor. It's definitely worth visiting and the Jewish Museum is one of the few museums in Munich that has all explanations translated into English.
No need to find a German speaking guide who translates everything for you :-)

Busty blonde porn star, Ahryan Astyn, gets naughty in the Penthouse Garage wearing her black fishnet pantyhose bodystocking. If that sounds hot, it is. She first pulls down her top to reveal her big boobs, then turns around so you get an eyeful of her perfect exposed inner ass checks, which she promptly spreads to give you an even better view. After that, she starts to dip her finger inside the shaved goodness of her quickly moistening pussy. This is definitely a great set of Ahryan.

Bulgarian Partners Charity
21st October 2014
Dorothea Restorations are proud to support the Bulgarian Partners Trust in their aim to complete The Social Medical and Training Centre.
The fundraising evening was held at the Bristol University in Clifton; where visitors were escorted through the Goldney Grotto and grounds. According to the Bristol University records "between 1737 and 1766, Thomas Goldney III on several occasions managed to buy some of the adjacent property, which allowed him to carry out his plans for the development of the garden. He kept a Garden Book, which provides us with details of the work he undertook."
His first major project in 1737 was the construction of the Goldney Grotto. The first part of this scheme was actually to build a tunnel, so that he would not have to cross the public footpath leading through his estate (between two of the plots of land, which he had acquired). The grotto itself was not completed until 1764. It is the finest surviving example of an eighteenth-century garden grotto in Britain. The walls and pillars are covered with a vast variety of minerals, shells, corals, rocks and fossils, some of which may have been brought back to Bristol by Captain Woodes Rogers. Its unusual design might have been influenced by Dutch styles of the late seventeenth century, and indeed Thomas Goldney II did visit the Netherlands in 1725, but it is unknown whether he was accompanied by his son.
The shells were completed in 1739 and the date is inscribed beneath one of the skylights. In the centre of the alcove sits a river god, occasionally referred to as Neptune, but as he has no trident and Bristol is situated on a river, it seems more appropriate that he be a river god. Opposite the entrance is the Lions' Den, containing an almost life-size plaster of Paris lion and lioness. The original Bath stone lion now sits on the terrace and was originally painted, in fact its resemblance was so striking that it frightened lady visitors.
The evening was a great success whilst raising over £20,000 for the project. Please visit the Bulgarian Partners website for further information and ways in which you can support the project.

A blaze roared through a vacant Foster Farms chicken coop in Delhi Monday, sending one Merced County firefighter to the hospital.
The fire fighter was said to have general weakness at the scene.
The fire was reported around 12:30 p.m. Monday at 14519 Collier Rd. in Delhi.
The cause of the fire has been deemed suspicious and is under investigation, according to Cal Fire.
The commercial chicken coop was vacated and no animals were harmed from the fire.
The fire was brought under control after an estimated 30 minutes and was kept from spreading to a nearby haystack. The damage was estimated at $2,000.
Anyone with information about the fire is asked to call the Merced County Fire Department at 385-7344.

Review - Restrap Saddle Pack Bikepacking Saddlebag
The Restrap Saddlepack is larger than most. It is designed to hold a lot more than just a spare tube and tools; but rather to have the capacity to hold clothing and supplies that might be required for an audax or long distance ride. It has a 4-litre volume, which is about four times that of most saddlebags. It places it somewhere in between a seat pack (like the Restrap 14 litre Bikepacking Seat Pack), and a small saddle caddy like the Lezyne Large Caddy Saddlebag.
The size is perfect for gravel adventures. It is big enough for two 29er tubes, tools and spares, and a jacket and emergency food supplies; the kind of things that become essentials on the road less travelled.
The pack mounts up without any tools or fiddly buckles. There is a single webbing strap that secures the bag to the seat rails, and joins using one of Restrap's famous magnetic clip buckles. Then there is a simple Velcro strap to secure the bag to the seatpost. The bag closure is a roll-down and clip waterproof system. It is all quite basic, but the quality materials and simple design mean it will definitely go the distance; and that is what Restrap is all about.
Whilst testing the Restrap Saddlepack I experienced very little bag swaying, annoying leg rubbing, or any other common complaint with saddlebags. The strapping system, although basic, seems to do the job very well.
I was also impressed by the waterproofing. I tested it on my CX bike in a torrential downpour, and without a mudguard it was bombarded with rear wheel spray, yet its contents remained dry. Impressive.
Overall, Restrap seem to have delivered another winning product with the Saddlepack saddlebag. It is simple, but functional and robust. Designed to allow you to go the distance.

Yep!….not very good Jeff.
The most absurd moment when Charlie uses a "plastic" petrol container

I DO however like Sturges'JOE KIDD which has aged rather well I feel.
Not a fan of Winner-too full of his own importance for me but his
two Westerns are rather good which is due to astute casting and
decent Gerald Wilson scripts.UK scribe Phil Hardy dubbed Winner
"The King Of Zoom" which says it all. One thing Wilson did like
about Winner is that he more or less did not tamper with what he
wrote.Charlie's Westerns are an odd bunch THE WHITE BUFFALO is
a total mis-fire and FROM NOON TILL THREE is a "change of pace"
disaster. BREAKOUT PASS is OK when it is outdoors but the
(many) interior scenes are deadening..even Ben Johnson seems bored
with the whole thing.
I too am a Joe Kidd fan. The next post will be a Sturges-o-rama review of his Western career.
Myself, I find the Winner/Wilson Westerns absolutely dire. I think they are trashy and show no respect for the genre.
As for Monsieur Bronson, well, Gary Cooper he ain't…
About Bronson and Coop – neither man said a lot, at least not with their mouths. Coop said volumes with single syllables and body language. Bronson? Well…
Coop underacted and said it all with his eyes.
Bronson was just plain wooden.
Westernwise, they were chalk and cheese.

UWGB volleyball rallies around coach, serves Alzheimer's awareness
The UW-Green Bay volleyball team is rallying around their head coach as her mother fights early-onset Alzheimer's disease.
"My mom has the disease. She's 62 years old," says Abbey Sutherland, UW-Green Bay Volleyball Head Coach.
Abbey Sutherland's mother, Rhonda, has been living with Alzheimer's disease for 10 years. The diagnosis caught the family off-guard because Rhonda was so young at the time.
"I wish we would have been more educated on it. It's hard to go through it. We even thought maybe she was hard of hearing or needed to get a hearing test. But just year for year, things change," Sutherland says.
Sutherland's father, Rob, has become Rhonda's caregiver. The disease has continually progressed and it takes a toll on the entire family.
"You have to work really hard to live in the present and enjoy what you have, rather than be sad from seeing them disappear," Sutherland says. "Because every day, it kind of gets worse, so you just try to live in the moment."
When Abbey Sutherland took over as head coach of UWGB's volleyball team this year, she told her players they should serve their community and make a difference.
On Friday, Oct. 19, that will be their mission.
"We're attacking Alzheimer's. It's to promote Alzheimer's awareness and we're raising money to try and find a cure," Sutherland says.
They're turning their match against IUPUI into their first Alzheimer's Awareness Match. It starts with a pep rally at 5 p.m.
The idea is to inform a younger generation about caring for people with Alzheimer's disease.
"It's amazing that the youth, how they wrap around this and they roll out activities and fundraising, and they know how to make things happen," said Laurie Schill, Executive Director, Alzheimer's Association Greater Wisconsin Chapter.
Coaches around the state have also jumped on board and will host similar awareness matches.
"We want to help other families. We want them to know they're not alone," Sutherland says.
