text: The study investigates upgrading in Vietnam's garment industry. The approach used is the global value chain theory. Unit value analysis and qualitative methods are two major methods to investigate the upgrading of Vietnam's garment industry in the global garment value chain. The major findings are first, Vietnam has achieved process upgrading which has lead to high export values even in the post MFA era. Second, in exporting to the US market, the industry has successfully upgraded in terms of product upgrading. Third, the leading Vietnamese producers has carried out functional upgrading but limited to designated FOB which is identified by these producers' limited role in assembling garments and purchasing textiles from suppliers nominated by foreign buyers.Those findings provide supports for arguments on upgrading of developing country producers in the global garment value chain (that is, developing country producers can achieve significant product upgrading but limit in functional upgrading) and on the role of East Asian traders in upgrading process of developing country's garment producers. Those traders provide less upgrading opportunities for producers' upgrading than do global buyers and regional traders.

How Do You Rank Advance?
On IsaFYI, we try to keep things simple, but frankly, when it comes to rank advancements and team building, things can get a bit muddy. Here's a very quick rundown of some key terms.
- A Paid-As Consultant = An active Associate with at least 100 BV in sales within the past 30 days on his or her Right Sales Team at least 100 BV in sales within the past 30 days on his or her Left Sales Team.
- A Manager = An Associate with at least 1 Personally Enrolled Paid-As Consultant on their Right Sales Team and at least 1 Consultant on their Left Sales Team.
- A Director = An Associate with at least 6 Personally Enrolled Paid-As Consultants in any combination on their Right Sales Team or Left Sales Team.
- An Executive = An Associate with at least 5 Personally Enrolled Paid-As Consultants on their Right Sales Team and at least 5 Personally Enrolled Paid-As Consultants on their Left Sales Team for a total of at least 10 Personally Enrolled Paid-As Consultants.
- Crystal = A rank classification that we add to your title when you achieve a certain rank in a specified amount of time. Typically, to earn a Crystal rank, you'd need to achieve Manager status within 60 days of becoming an Associate, Director within 120 days of becoming an Associate, and/or Executive within 180 days of becoming an Associate to earn a Crystal rank. You would have to achieve these milestones within half the normal amount of time, starting from March 5, 2018, to earn a bonus through the Rapid Crystal Reset.
Are you shooting to hit Crystal Executive? Awesome! Help at least five people you've personally enrolled on your Right Sales Team achieve or maintain Paid-As Consultant status and at least five people you've personally enrolled on your Left Sales Team achieve or maintain Paid-As Consultant status. If you maintain five personally enrolled Paid-As Consultants on both of your Sales Teams before May 27, 2018, you could officially call yourself a Crystal Executive!

WOMEN FLUFFY YARN FLEECE FULL-ZIP JACKET is rated out of 5 by 48.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bailee from I love this fleece This fleece is so soft and warm. I love them and I buy them every year. This time I got the grey and it is very pretty with white mixed in, it looks like fur. I'm usually a large and the large fits well - it's fitted but not too tight. I like the length because it isn't too long so it doesn't look frumpy. If you wash these too much the fleece will mat down and look bad, so try not to wash too often and when you do, brush it!

WELLINGTON, New Zealand, CMC – Colin de Grandhomme smashed the fastest-ever maiden Test century and the second-fastest by a New Zealander, to put West Indies to the sword and leave them with little chance of saving the opening Test at the Basin Reserve.
The 31-year-old's aggressive 105, in only his seventh Test following his debut a year ago, propelled the Black Caps to a massive 447 for nine in their first innings on day two here Saturday – a massive lead of 313 runs with three days left in the contest.
Arriving at number seven in the second over of the final session, de Grandhomme reached three figures off a mere 71 balls to also record the joint ninth-fastest Test hundred of all time and the fastest ever against West Indies.
Stroke-maker Ross Taylor missed out on his 17th Test hundred when he fell for 93 while Henry Nicholls hit 67 and wicketkeeper Tom Blundell, an unbeaten 57 on debut.
Seamer Kemar Roach bowled impressively to end with three for 73 while pacer Miguel Cummins (2-74) and off-spinner Roston Chase (2-83) picked up two wickets apiece, on a chastening day for the Windies.
Resuming the day on 85 for two, New Zealand prospered courtesy of Taylor who extended his overnight third wicket stand with opener Jeet Raval (42) to 41 before adding a further 127 for the fourth wicket with Nicholls.
West Indies seamers toiled without reward, managing a single in each of the first two sessions, as the Black Caps controlled the game, adding 95 runs in the morning period and 86 in the post-lunch.
The left-handed Raval, starting the day on 29, added 13 off another 24 balls before he fell 45 minutes into the session, edging a defensive prod at the first ball of Roach's opening spell, to give wicketkeeper Shane Dowrich a straightforward catch at 109 for three.
Taylor and Nicholls then set about the Windies bowling with some gusto, gathering runs freely on both sides of the wicket.
The right-handed Taylor, on 12 at the start, raised his half-century about half-hour before the interval when he top-edged a hook at speedster Shannon Gabriel to the long leg boundary. He reached lunch unbeaten on 66 with Nicholls on 24, and continued his domination of the Windies bowling afterwards.
He looked to be closing in on a three figures when he was lbw to Roach to a full length delivery which struck him on the back leg. Initially given not out, the decision was overturned on review, ending a polished knock that came from 160 balls and included 10 fours.
Nicholls, meanwhile, enjoyed a huge slice of luck in the first over after lunch when he gloved a pull at captain Jason Holder to Dowrich, only to be reprieved after replays showed the seamer had over-stepped.
He made the most of the opportunity to carve out his fifth Test half-century, before falling 10 minutes after tea when he helped a short ball from Cummins into the lap of Gabriel at deep backward square.
Thirteen balls later, Mitchell Santner was late on a defensive stroke and bowled off-stump by Cummins for 17 at 281 for six, leaving the Windies with the ideal opportunity to limit the hosts.
de Grandhomme's arrival ended any such hopes, however. The Zimbabwe-born all-rounder attacked from the outset, storming to his half-century off just 44 balls, with his second fifty requiring only 27 deliveries.
In the process, he posted 148 for the seventh wicket with Blundell, who faced 100 deliveries and counted six fours, a partnership that quenched the Windies fight.
de Grandhomme raced into the 90s with a massive six over long-on off Chase, edged Cummins to the third man boundary in the following over to move to 99 before running three to deep backward point off the next ball, to reach his landmark.
All told, he faced 74 balls and crunched 11 fours and three sixes, before holing out to long-on off Chase, half-hour before close.
Blundell watched as another two wickets fell cheaply for five runs but by then the damage had already been done.

In any company, there are the deliverables, goals, tasks, projects — and the politics. The good, the bad, and the ugly. In my career, I've worked in Fortune 100 corporations with an employee population from 52,000 to 235,000. Cities, if you will, with all of the associated neighborhoods, in-crowds, cool places to hang out, and the bad parts of town as well.
Often, how we successfully navigate our career is less dependent upon our personal work, our ability to think out of the box (or cube), and the tasks we deliver in favor of how well we get along with others. How we work the room. How we accommodate other people's views on a subject.
It ain't easy. Office politics are a minefield with little navigation insight for a Cubicle Warrior. And certainly few 'Cube Rules' to guide us along the way.
Well, help is on the way. Timothy Johnson, of Carpe Factum, has just published a book aimed right at this issue called GUST — The "Tale" Wind of Office Politics. The book advertises the following things to learn:
Right up our alley, right? I went right over to Amazon and ordered it. Review to follow.
[…] Office Gossip […]
Timothy — You've always had very good analysis on this type of stuff on your blog; we'll take a look at the book and let you know. Looking forward to reading it!
Scot – thanks for the call-out. Will be anxious to hear your thoughts on the book. Your early analysis is spot on: if you dwell in a cubicle, you're gonna have office politics.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (CBS.MW) -- Adobe Systems shares sank 17 percent Wednesday after the software maker said a slowdown in the U.S. economy is likely to negatively affect revenue in its first quarter.
The stock dropped $9.06 to close at $43.69 on volume of 19 million shares.
In an intraquarter update on the fiscal period ending March 2, Adobe also said it would spend cautiously to achieve its profit goals for the quarter.
The Silicon Valley based firm ADBE, -0.18% generates most of its sales through Web and print publishing products, such as Photoshop and Illustrator.
Adobe said the slowdown was affecting all its product segments in all geographic market areas, primarily in the United States. "At this point in the quarter, with one month to go, we can see that the deteriorating economy, particularly in the U.S., is starting to affect us," said Bruce R. Chizen, president and chief executive officer of Adobe.
USB Piper Jaffray sliced the stock's rating to "buy" from "strong buy," and lowered its 12-month price target to $50 from $95. In a research note, USB noted that the softness in Adobe's business is partly related to the slowdown in the growth of new Web customers.
USB noted that about 25 percent of Adobe's top line growth was fueled by the growth in dot-coms.
"Although the near-term outlook for the economy is uncertain, we believe the long term drivers of our future growth around Network Publishing are still intact," said Chizen.
To support the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation FD (fair disclosure), Adobe will issue intra-quarterly updates on a regular basis.
The company is slated to release quarterly results after the closing bell on March 15.

Event moderation with both polish and a sense of humor.
With over 20 years experience in in moderation and emceeing as well as a career as one of Japan's top narrators, Chris combines the voice of a professional narrator with the improvisational and crowd-working skills of a show host to bring a smooth and polished performance to entertainment, science and technology events
From tech industry and improv events in Europe, to Tokyo Fintec Summits, Pioneers Asia, and Tokyo charity and Embassy shows, Chris has moderated many events. Events sponsored by the likes of Nomura Holdings, The Nikkei Weekly, the International Institute of Economics and the Economic Ministry of Japan.
Skills as an improvisor come in handy during the inevitable glitches during events when the host must cover for speakers who are running late, or for elaborate set changes.
An expert interviewer who actually listens to answers and responds accordingly due to years of improvisation, Chris is an avid follower of the latest trends in tech and science, he can moderate panel discussions or field audience questions with ease.
Years hosting the Tokyo Comedy Store's Improvazilla Show have resulted in a relaxed and warm interview style, with a sense of humor thrown in for good measure. Your panelists will feel comfortable with their host, and that they're really being listened to, which makes for a more lively and informative panel discussion.
Fluency in three languages, English, Japanese, and Spanish, allow for communication with local production staff, facilitating backstage meetings and problem-solving.
With over 40 years experience in public speaking, beginning in grade school, and 20-plus years as an improvisor, Chris is delighted to have had the opportunity to share secrets of presentation with speakers from Tokyo to Vienna.
His unique workshop Pitch Training Through Improv uses improvisation techniques and exercises to put speakers through their paces in a fun and challenging way. They must juggle interference, the introduction of new subjects, and calls to stretch their emotional range while delivering their pitch or speech.
This gets rid of the rote-memorization problems of being unable to deal with mistakes or distractions, and also having a one-size-fits-all approach to public speaking. Flexibility, expressivity, and verbal dexterity are developed with exercises that the workshop attendees can take back home with them.

We went on a Croqueta Tour of Miami. Five stops in one day — the most-Miami adventure
Welcome to Miami, the croqueta capital of the world.
You can't drive across our city without being exposed to this ubiquitous bite-size finger food.
So Miami.com editor-in-chief Amy Reyes and I did it — for journalism! In our Croqueta Tour, we visited five of Miami's most talked-about croqueta makers in a single day.
I can't stress this enough: We only ate croquetas for breakfast, lunch and dinner, despite our bodies' supplications.
Locals know these deep-fried fritters of meat and flour are more than just a novelty.
Croquetas are the appetizer of choice at any Cuban party. (No one ever orders enough.) A midday snack between lunch and dinner — the original fourth meal. And any late-night party-goer knows the restorative properties of an open ventanita Cuban coffee window, the natural habitat of the croqueta.
(How to order Cuban coffee at the ventanita is a whole other story.)
Miami hosts an annual summer celebration in honor of the humble croqueta, Croquetapalooza, which this year takes place Aug. 25 at the Magic City Casino. (Tickets cost $40 and include unlimited drinks and food from more than 40 different restaurants hoping to be crowned croqueta king.)
Someone in a fevered croqueta craze even fashioned a Croqueta Cake — 100 delectable croquetas adorning a vanilla-Nutella cake, a Machiavellian idea popularized by Miami's BreadMan Bakery.
So let us be your croqueta travel agents. (But please sign the liability waiver):
First stop: Islas Canarias
Neither of us ate breakfast so we could start our day right.
This is the croqueta that all other croquetas are judged by. They're the perfect size, the perfect mini-submarine shape. They're perfectly crispy on the outside and savory of ham and parsley — maybe a little too much parsley at times? — on the inside.
They're regularly on Miamians' list of our favorite croquetas and there's a reason why: The progeny of late founders Raul and Amelia Garcia, the Andrades, do them proper justice. Fans will drive across the county to the far western province of Kendall to have these croquetas at their parties. Those fans will have the happiest guests.
13695 SW 26th St., Kendall
On to: Palomilla Grill
Islas was a warmup for a croqueta bacchanal.
Not content with making just one great croqueta, Palomilla Grill regularly offers several great flavors — and not all of them traditional.
The restaurant, originally called Trianon when the Rodriguez family opened it in 1975, has remained in the family and you can see the influences of the mother-son team, Emi and Alex.
Along with traditional ham and chicken croquetas, they offer ones made with ropa vieja (Cuban shredded beef), buffalo chicken and chorizo. Each is served with a mayo sauce you'll want to take home. That helped them win Croquetapalooza in 2016.
6890 W. Flagler St., Miami
Starting to feel full: Versailles
We really had to power through, now.
If you've never had a croqueta before, there's a good chance your first exposure will be at Versailles, at the edge of Little Havana.
This mecca of Cuban culture in Miami has, for years, been the gathering place for all things Cuban, particularly political. And it doesn't hurt they have a Cuban coffee ventanita — halfway between downtown and the suburbs — that stays open until 2:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Many a Miami late-nighter has made a pit stop at Versailles for a croqueta pressed between a pair of saltines.
The look on Amy's face said, "Why did you make me eat those crackers?"
3555 SW 8th St., Miami
We get our second wind: Doce Provisions
At this point in our Croqueta Tour, it's time to say goodbye to convention (Also to your Keto diet, Amy).
Doce Provisions won the judges' choice at the 2017 Croquetapalooza precisely because it broke from the traditional. At this Little Havana restaurant, run by partners in life and the kitchen, Justin Sherrer and Cuban-born Lisetty Llampalla, the restaurant is a fusion of those worlds.
The croquetas here are made with chorizo and bacon, served over a mustard sauce and sprinkled with queso fresco. The flavors — ham, mustard, cheese — are reminiscent of a Cuban sandwich.
Amy looked shaken. (She actually begged for a salad because her body was in open revolt.) But I told her greatness awaited at our last stop.
541 SW 12th Ave., Miami
Please, no more: Sakaya Kitchen
This was the perfect way to bookend our Croqueta Tour: start with traditional, finish with flair. (Also, with antacids.)
Save your hate mail. I am fully aware there's nothing traditional about Richard Hales' croquetas. Like the chef himself, they fight convention in every obvious way: They're square and they use Korean flavors.
That said, they show Hales' devotion to incorporating his point of view — he is of Filipino descent, born in Tampa, around Cubans — but representing his love of South Florida, where he also owns a food truck and second successful beach restaurant, Bird & Bone.
Sakaya's spicy pork croquetas are made in the classic way, creamy inside, crispy on the outside, and served with a ginger-soy dipping sauce you'll lick off your fingers.
This is a classic example of food influencing other food — and proves Miami has the strongest croqueta game (and its devotees, the strongest stomachs).
3401 N. Miami Ave. #125, Midtown

Traviling with film can be an ordeal! Film cameras are heavy, and packing film in and out of airports is not always convenient. But holy moly, are the results worth it!
Check out these gorgeous images by Michelle Lemay! The make me want to pack up and go to Portugal!
From Michelle:
These images are from my trip to Portugal this summer.
I selected photos from only Evora and Arriolos, two inland towns. We also visited and loved Lisbon and Comporta during this trip, but these places had such a specific and unique feel to them, I thought they stood best alone.
Both Evora and Arriolos are sun-baked, sleepy communities where little English is spoken and you really feel you've stepped out of your life into another world.
It was 110 degrees fahrenheit during our stay, and the white hot, baking streets were utterly deserted during daylight hours. Only as the sun dipped low in the sky did the Portuguese emerge and start walking their dogs and doing their shopping.

Toronto-based ThinkFilm holds the U.S. rights to Gero's feature film about four couples and one threesome that, despite an absence of onscreen sex, has garnered widespread press attention for its graphic title.Ottawa's ruling Conservative party introduced Bill C-10 to deny taxpayer subsidies for offensive homegrown movies after Prime Minister Stephen Harper reportedly objected to public subsidies being used to produce and launch Gero's debut theatrical film at the 2007 Toronto film fest.The bill is currently stalled in the Canadian Senate as domestic film and TV producers attempt to overturn a key censorship provision.Pelman said that the marketing campaign for the release of "Young" will strike a balance between allusions to Bill C-10 and the movie's provocative title and attempts to sell an entertaining romantic comedy to a broad public.

Bringing Order to the IT Compliance Chaos
Very few workshops can be labeled "avoid this session at your own risk." This one can. A stretched budget and a noble mission are not enough to exempt you from ensuring compliance with a host of government regulations designed to keep sensitive data safe, and IT security is becoming all the more difficult in our increasingly remote, mobile, app-filled workplaces. We will share tools and techniques for taming the chaos without hiring high-priced compliance experts.
You'll learn about identifying the regulations you must follow, researching your specific requirements, clarifying conflicts created by gaps and overlaps between regulations, and keeping it all under control.

Continuing Education Seminar
for Court and Medical Interpreters
Saturday, October 27
Sunday, October 28, 2018
in Los Angeles, CA
For California Court Interpreters -
6 CIMCE credits - # L4464 (exp. 2/28/19)
For Medical Interpreters
0.60 IMIA/NBCMI credits CEU ID: 18-1202 (exp. 3/29/2020)
Working with Adults with Mental Illness
The purpose of this course is to expose the participants to the difficulties of communicational processes with individuals who have mental illness who can present significant challenges to the interpreter.
Individuals with mental illness may exhibit symptoms such as using phonetically or grammatically unstructured speech and experiencing hallucinations and delusion, being disorganized in their thought and their communicational processes.
Because interpreters serve as active participants in the court environment with various responsibilities, questions arise regarding the factors that contribute to their decision-making while interpreting in this setting.
This class takes a look at such obstacles and analyze potential interventions from different perspectives that may be applied to the resolution of conflicts arising from the interpreting work.

Workshop iN PREVENTION OF INTERPRETER'S VOICE PROBLEMS
This workshop, instructed by Pablo Suñé, Board Certified Music Therapist, will offer interpreters the opportunity to understand the causes of voice care problems related to misuse in the professional practice. Interpreters will also have an opportunity to participate in progressive muscle relaxation and diaphragmatic breathing exercises as well as analyzing their voices in the recording studio. In this workshop, interpreters will acquire the basic skills to prevent voice problems.
In this new workshop, we will have more time to enjoy more activities, warm-ups, progressive muscle relaxation, intercostal breathing exercises, and our favorite part of the seminar: analyzing your voice in our recording studio. You will have the opportunity to analyze your voice in a recording studio as you play fun and educational activities with your colleagues.
Many interpreters in California who already attended our "Voice Care for Interpreters" class have been experiencing the benefits of participating in this continuing education seminar that we offer since 2013.
If you never took this class before, we guarantee you will have a great educational experience, having a great time with your co-workers, and acquire the understanding to identify the challenges of vocal productions and apply basic voice care skills in your daily practice.
If you already attended our "Voice Care for Interpreters" class, you may take this course and receive 6 (six) additional Continuing Education Credits approved by your State Court. It will be the right class for practicing and reinforcing the skills we have been working on before.

Satish Dhawan Space Centre Second Launch Pad
The Second Launch Pad of the Satish Dhawan Space Centre is a rocket launch site in Sriharikota, India. It is the second of two launch pads at the centre. The Second Launch Pad or SLP was designed, supplied, erected & commissioned by MECON Limited, a Government of Indian Enterprise, located at Ranchi (Jharkhand, India) during the period March 1999 to December 2003.[1] It cost about ₹400 crore (equivalent to ₹10 billion or US$150 million in 2018) at that time.[2] The second launch pad with associated facilities was built in 2005. However it became operational only on 5 May 2005 with the launching of PSLV-C6. MECON's sub-contractors for this project including Inox India, HEC, Tata Growth, Goderej Boyce, Simplex, Nagarjuna Construction, Steelage, etc. The other Launch Pad being the First Launch Pad. It is used by Polar Satellite Launch Vehicles and Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicles, and is intended for use with future Indian rockets including the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mk.III[3]
|Time zone
|Short name
|Launch pad(s)
The first launch from the pad occurred on 5 May 2005, and was of a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle carrying the CARTOSAT-1 and HAMSAT satellites.[4] As of 2016, 9 PSLVs (all successful) and 6 GSLVs (2 success, 1 partial success & 3 failures) have been launched from the complex. India's 1st Moon Mission, Chandrayan-I was launched from this launch pad on 22 October 2008. The most recent launch was of a GSLV III on 22 July 2019 of Chandrayaan-2.
"As per the "Integrate, Transfer and Launch (ITL)" concept, based on which the launch pad and the associated facilities are designed, the entire vehicle is assembled and checked-out on a mobile pedestal in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) and then moved in vertical position to the launch pad on a roll track."[5]
"Other facilities include, Solid Stage Assembly Building (SSAB) connected to the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) by a rail track, Technical Complex-2 (TC2), Spacecraft Preparation Facility, Range Instrumentation facilities comprising tracking, telemetry and tele-command systems."[5]

No longer an also-ran, British opposition leader hits campaign trail
[REDRUTH, England] British opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn is back on the campaign trail just weeks after losing an election, betting that Prime Minister Theresa May's minority government will soon collapse.
Long written off by opponents and many members of his Labour Party as an old-fashioned socialist incapable of winning power, Mr Corbyn has been galvanised by the June election, in which Labour made gains and Ms May's Conservatives lost their majority.
With Ms May's authority severely dented and the Conservatives struggling to unite over Brexit, he has ordered his party to hit the campaign trail as other parties spend the summer regrouping.
There is no sign yet that Mr Corbyn will get the early election he is betting on. But business leaders who once wrote him off now take his challenge seriously and former Prime Minister Tony Blair, a big critic, says Mr Corbyn could one day lead Britain.
"This government thinks it is there for some time to come," Mr Corbyn, 68, told hundreds of people at a rally this month in Poll, a village outside Redruth, a former mining town in a deprived area of southwestern England. "I've got news for them: we are touring the whole country this summer," he said at the site of a former mine.
Seeking a head-start if there is a new election, Labour has identified 100 constituencies in England, Scotland and Wales which it believes it can win from the Conservatives, including seats held by lawmakers such as Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson.
Mr Corbyn, who plans to visit about 50 of the target areas himself, has been wooing the crowds by attacking the Conservatives over cutbacks in public services and denouncing a political system which he says favours the rich.
"It's the largest campaign Labour has ever embarked upon outside of a general election in the modern era," said Ian Lavery, Party Chair and National Campaign co-coordinator. "We want to build on the campaigning momentum from the general election to build support in marginal constituencies to take us into government."
To be sure, the next election is not due until 2022, and the Conservatives will do all they can to ensure they do not gift Mr Corbyn a chance to win power.
The most likely cause of a new election would be the government being torn apart by divisions over Brexit or the Conservatives deposing Ms May, who has to rely on a small Northern Irish party to ensure she can pass legislation.
Senior Conservatives appear at least for now to have put off any attempt to replace Ms May because it would risk triggering an election, and are trying to rally together over Brexit.
Opinion polls show support for Mr Corbyn and Labour is rising, despite the party's third successive election defeat.
A survey by YouGov polling group in July showed 33 per cent of respondents thought Mr Corbyn would make the best prime minister, compared to only 14 per cent in January. Ms May's own rating fell from 47 per cent to 36 per cent in the same period.
Another YouGov poll this month gave Labour an 8 percentage point lead over the Conservatives. In April, the Conservatives led by 20 points in some surveys.
Momentum, a grassroots campaigning organisation made up of Mr Corbyn supporters, has led the rallying cry, training activists to go door-to-door to "change minds" and using social media to boost support for the white-haired leader.
Labour managed in June not only to bring out young voters, many of them taking revenge on Ms May over her Brexit policies, but also won back some left-wing voters who abandoned the party when it moved closer to the centre under the pro-business Blair.
"This is the rebirth of left-wing politics in Britain. It's marvellous," Dawn Evans, 62, who founded the local Momentum group, said at the rally outside Redruth.
Others, young and old alike, simply see Mr Corbyn as more sincere than other politicians. "His personality has got a lot to do with it. Because he's got a very good, open way of explaining his policies and I also think he actually sees what people want, what the country is looking for," Chris Hunter, 59, said at the same rally.
In a sign that the City, London's financial hub, is now taking Mr Corbyn's leadership credentials more seriously, top finance executives - including from Standard Chartered and the London Stock Exchange - have held meetings with Labour in the past few weeks to find out more about its policies.
Until recently, bankers had largely ignored the party since Mr Corbyn took over as its leader in 2015.
Some bankers are alarmed by Labour policies and Mr Corbyn has many other critics - he survived a leadership challenge inside Labour only a year ago.
The Conservatives' setbacks in June also showed it is not always easy turning a big opinion poll lead into votes. In an election, Mr Corbyn would have to address many voters' doubts that he could run the economy, would be tough on security and could guide Britain safely through Brexit.
Brexit divides Labour, as it does the Conservatives, and features little in Mr Corbyn's campaign speeches. Voters' uncertainty over his Brexit stance could also be a problem for him: he voted against joining Europe in a 1975 referendum but campaigned to Remain in 2016, though he was accused by some Labour members of making only a token effort to sway voters.
Mr Blair has said that a combination of Brexit and a Corbyn government would leave Britain "flat on our back" though he told the BBC after the June election that it was now possible Mr Corbyn could be elected prime minister on a left-wing platform.

Maybe you've heard that I have started a new project…not to replace, but to *add to* T.Spoon Photography, high school senior portraits, and commercial photography. It's called The Love Offensive and it's a lifelong project in the making combining photography, yoga, and world travel. Our basic ethos is to empower the body and free the mind so we can truly see and celebrate each other all over the world. I hope that sounds as awesome to you as it does to me!
I just held The Love Offensive for Girls at my house last weekend, and it was truly a blast! I had eleven 11-year-olds over for a day to teach them yoga and photography. What we really talked about was stilling the mind, trusting yourself, listening to each other, and making each other feel seen, beautiful, and special. It was a really good day, and the girls left exhausted and feeling excited about their new skills behind the lens and on the mat.
I'll be holding The Love Offensive for Girls all over the area (and beyond) and I'd love to work with your daughter/school/girl scout troop/running club (you get the idea :)). I have all sorts of dates on the calendar with different groups of girls, and I'm super stoked! If you'd like to sign your daughter up for the next open day-long Love Offensive, please sign up on the website: www.theloveoffensive.com/girls
Thank you so much for your endless support as I try to live my life as a supportive, love giving, mood boosting girl myself. Everything you have ever done for me is greatly appreciated and utterly humbling. Thank you.
Thanks for this article. I'd also like to express that it can often be hard if you are in school and simply starting out to initiate a long credit standing. There are many students who are just trying to endure and have an extended or favourable credit history are often a difficult matter to have.
So get this… there is that girl you went to high school with. She was many things. She was hilarious, beautiful, exceptionally intelligent, sincerely likable and a true leader. She grew into her own and by character, shares her beautiful gifts with the world, making it a more beautiful place with every photograph and ever pose. There is so much meaning behind her which translates into every word she speaks, every picture she takes and every minute you spend with her. Now imagine that this very same girl from high school grew up and has offered an opportunity to work with your daughter and her best friend to learn about inner strength, self awareness and the impact of positivity. What a blessing. What a profound blessing to have my daughter learn from you Tara. You've been a part of my roots and now my branches. From the bottom of my heart, thanks for sharing your lens with these young ladies and the world.

Mnangagwa is not the cartoon dictator of the past. He is savvier and knows how to play the international game. He has pledged to hold "free and fair" elections by late August and to revive a failed economy. A slick public relations and aggressive social media campaign have led to sympathetic press coverage and a warm reception in Davos. Mnangagwa is hoping to attract investors and convince the United States and others to lift targeted sanctions on him and his allies for past human rights abuses. Mnangagwa is also pushing hard for the World Bank to help to repay its massive debts and secure new loans.
Yet it's far too soon to embrace the junta or to bail it out.

George Ralley (United Kingdom, Maidstone)
My apartment is not very big, but despite that, I'm still facing Lycamobile signal issues there, because it's located in the neighborhood with a lot of tall buildings, and, I think, the signal just can't get through. I could have some nice signal in my living room, but that was surely not very comfortable, since all other rooms had Lycamobile poor signal. Once upon a time I decided to look for a possible solution and I found out that signal amplifiers are a thing and that they can help with Lycamobile poor coverage. I searched for some stores, and MyAmplifiers has really caught my attention. First of all, the prices. To be honest, who doesn't like fair prices that aren't too high? Second, the amount of information they provide about their products. Third, the detailed consultations they gave to me, with answers to all of my questions (and there were a lot, because, as you could guess, I wasn't familiar with devices like these at all) and recommendations on which particular repeater model should I buy. The short delivery time, the quality of the details – these are also the advantages. When I was putting it together, I expected to face some difficulties, but there were none and I really managed to complete it in less than half an hour. After that I just turned it on – and Lycamobile signal problems have never bothered me anymore.
It just works very well without any maintaining and amplifiers the signal perfectly throughout all of its working range.

It has been 16 years since The Simpsons predicted Donald Trump would become President.
And last week, the 70-year-old Republican emerged victorious in the election to become President of the United States.
The bizarre premise was outlined in an episode, entitled Bart To The Future, broadcast in early 2000.
The show also mocked Trump in an episode last year after he announced he was running for president.
In the 2000 episode predicting the Trump administration, Lisa is pictured sitting in the Oval Office surrounded by advisers.
In March, writer Dan Greaney told The Hollywood Reporter: "It was a warning to America."
Greaney, who has also produced episodes of the US version of The Office, said: "The Donald Trump that we were writing about was kind of a lovable, over-the-top character and didn't have this darkness.
"There's nothing in the episode about walls or rounding up Mexicans or Islamophobia.
"You would expect that he'd build giant monuments to himself but you wouldn't expect that the first thing would be a wall."
Now, the show writers have acknowledged their own prophetic ways in their first post-Trump episode.
In the below clip which shows the opening seconds of the episode, Bart can be seen writing on a chalkboard the words "Being right sucks."
Show creator Matt Groening said last month: "Back in 2000 Trump was, of course, the most absurd placeholder joke name that we could think of at the time and that's still true.
"It's beyond satire."
Weirdly, though, it is not the first instance of The Simpsons predicting the future.

Our Story
Built on a California Family Tradition
Built on a California Family Tradition
The foundations of the Gael Knight Company are laid on the soil of family life. For over half a century the Knights have provided world class financial, accounting, and tax services to hard working individuals, demonstrating a business philosophy based on the same core values that exist in our family: trust, loyalty, commitment, knowledge, and strength. Knight is a name born from the blood, sweat, and tears that made our nation great. We toiled to achieve the American Dream. From our blueprint, great things were built…
In 1954, after returning from military service in Korea, George Knight - the Patriarch of our family - earned his degree in Accounting at San Jose University. From a kitchen table in his Los Altos home, the first flashes of George's fiscal genius were glimpsed. Over the proceeding decades he cultivated a prosperous and dependable company, serving individuals and small businesses across Santa Clara County and the Silicon Valley, earning his reputation as a leader in financial solutions. George was of the people, working for the people. Today, we still think of him as the heart of our company and the clients he served as the lifeblood - as close as our very own kin.
Since then, George's company has matured into a financial dynasty overseen by three generations in the golden state of California. Having originally been known as Knight and Company, the business split into two enterprises in 2015, birthing a new era of Knight family ventures in GKC. We work with clients from across the world, providing a range of financial services including tax preparation, accounting, review and compliance attestations, financial consulting, estate planning, charitable gift planning, foreign assets reporting, and Fin 48 analysis and tax preparation. What's more, we also offer exclusive consultations on business strategies and wealth management.
With our owner Gael and managers Sergei and Polly at the helm (accompanied by a team of preparers and administrators), our breadth of qualifications, technical know-how, and experience means we can confidently say we put our, "money where our mouth is."
Our cutting edge computer technology and accounting software programs take our clients to places previously not made possible. We may have been founded on the principles of the 1950's but our service provision and solutions are firmly grounded in the 21st Century. We take your finances seriously, helping you save, profit, and find enjoyment in your hard earned capital...just the way George Knight intended.
Financial futures look bright at Gael Knight Company.
With the warmest wishes,
Gael, Sergei, Polly & the Team

As portable devices become more powerful and resolution wars start to take them to insane amount of pixels, the source of power becomes a huge constraint. Keeping track of battery power remaining means either hovering over the notification area or going to the Control Panel. Notebooks are mobile computers that come fixed with battery to power them without a socket. Notebook BatteryInfo is exclusive software for Windows based OS that aims at providing extra information regarding battery life and also the power plan selected.
The installation procedure is standard stuff without requiring any tinkering with files or settings. On installation, the software integrates with the OS and displays battery information from the notification area of the taskbar. The software runs in background and barely consumes any resource ever. The interface of the configuration panel is very simple with tabbed panes containing settings regarding localization, display options, taskbar options and update check. The configuration panel also is visible from the Control Panel in Appearance and Personalization section. The taskbar displays (in either classic or Aero style) a battery icon with visual indicator for the amount of charge remaining and on hover brings more information i.e. power remaining, time remaining and power plan selected. LCD brightness can also be tweaked for system where it is supported. The software supports up to 4 batteries (in case the notebook employs battery packs). The software up till now was only available for Windows XP users but now has been ported over to Windows 7 and later versions. A beta version for Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 Technical Preview is also available to try out. Apart from all this, there is also a HTML help file included for offline support.
There are plenty of battery checking utilities present for Windows operating systems. BatteryCare is one such software which gives detailed information about battery and also tips on reducing battery usage as well as improving longevity. BatteryBar and BatteryMon are similar software with information regarding battery in notebooks. The latter also provides real-time monitoring tool for battery power usage and visual representation of power usage patterns. Similar software are also available for Mac, Linux, Android and Blackberry as well. These utilities also try to improve battery life by optimizing resource usage as well as suspending programs in background when not in use.
Notebook BatteryInfo is a software that does its job admirably. Earlier it was severely limited as it was only available on Windows XP 32-bit. But since then it is now available on Windows 7 and 8 as well and including a beta version for upcoming Windows 10 Technical preview. The software is hassle free, highly configurable and runs without any bloat or excessive resource usage. Unlike other software, it does not do much or offers fancy functions but instead does one job and does it great.
About Thomas Michel
Notebook BatteryInfo is developed and maintained by Thomas Michel and is a freeware.

Register Round Up
What is the Register Round Up Program?
The co-op prioritizes and promotes giving back to the community. Register Round Up is a simple program which will empower our shoppers to round up their purchase to the nearest dollar and donate the difference to our chosen recipient.
Small change makes a big difference and through this program, we collectively have an opportunity to offer a sizeable donation to a local organization or for disaster relief efforts.
How it Works?
At checkout, shoppers can choose to "round up" their grocery total to the nearest dollar and give the difference to the Register Round Up Fund.
For example, if a transaction totals $4.51, a customer will have the option of rounding the purchase up to $5.00 and donating $0.49 to the partner organization. If a transaction totals $7.56, they can round up to $10.00 - with the difference of $2.44 added to the Round Up Fund.
At the end of the donation time period, we'll directly donate 100% of what we raise to pre-selected recipients - local charitable organizations that align with the co-op's ends, and in extraordinary circumstances, we will collect for disaster relief efforts on behalf of affected members of the co-op community.

With a holiday filled week ahead, it seems the most exciting bit of news this week will be from the Federal Reserve meeting which ends tomorrow. Although nothing is expected to change in terms of rates, with the futures market currently pricing in less than a 15% chance of a hike, it will be interesting to hear what the committee says in terms of future guidance; especially following a particularly weak set of data releases.
US economic data points including personal income and personal spending and the Fed's favored inflation reading, the PCE core were released below expectations; PCE was 1.6%yoy in March, from 2.1%yoy in Feb and well below the 2% target. In fact serial 'no' rate hike voter Neel Kashkari, Minneapolis Fed president said 'For the last five or six years, the Federal Reserve keeps predicting inflation is around the corner. And those predictions end up being wrong.' Meanwhile the annualised GDP release for Q1 also missed expectations, released at 0.7%qoq, where the prior reading was as high as 2.1%. The more recent ISM manufacturing reading for April also disappointed, falling to 54.8, although still in expansionary territory but down from March and well below market calls for 56.5. The new orders and employment sub-indexes were the main drivers of the decline in March's readings, however also remaining within reasonably attractive expansionary levels.
Following the deterioration in economic data readings, although the probability of a rate hike is currently priced in at over 71% in June, we suspect the FOMC statement tomorrow will not explicitly indicate a move to hike next month. We do not expect any material updates in regards to how the Fed wishes to shrink the balance sheet either. Former Fed Chair, Ben Bernanke did however say he expects the central bank could reduce its USD4.5tn debt by as much as half, stating yesterday, 'I think they're aiming for something in the vicinity of $2.3 to $2.7 trillion'. Bernanke did however add that he doubts the $1tn pre-financial crisis levels will be achieved any time soon.
There is nothing in the recent data releases to suggest that the US economy is in any way materially better off than in was a year ago, however it seems to us that the Fed wish to remain ahead of the curve and aim to get to a stage of normalisation, where they will have increased flexibility to reduce rates during the next economic downturn; which may not be too far off. However Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin yesterday said that the US could potentially get to a stage of 3% growth in two years through tax reform, regulatory relief and fairer trade policies. Meanwhile Bernanke suggested growth in the US could not exceed 3%.
We look to key economic data releases later this week, including employment figures, where the market is currently looking for +190k jobs, and an increase in unemployment to 4.6%.

Herbivores are a significant source of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. They account for a large share of manure-related N2O emissions, as well as soil-related N2O emissions through the use of grazing land, and land for feed and forage production. It is widely acknowledged that mitigation measures are necessary to avoid an increase in N2O emissions while meeting the growing global food demand. The production and emissions of N2O are closely linked to the efficiency of nitrogen (N) transfer between the major components of a livestock system, that is, animal, manure, soil and crop. Therefore, mitigation options in this paper have been structured along these N pathways. Mitigation technologies involving diet-based intervention include lowering the CP content or increasing the condensed tannin content of the diet. Animal-related mitigation options also include breeding for improved N conversion and high animal productivity. The main soil-based mitigation measures include efficient use of fertilizer and manure, including the use of nitrification inhibitors. In pasture-based systems with animal housing facilities, reducing grazing time is an effective option to reduce N2O losses. Crop-based options comprise breeding efforts for increased N-use efficiency and the use of pastures with N2-fixing clover. It is important to recognize that all N2O mitigation options affect the N and carbon cycles of livestock systems. Therefore, care should be taken that reductions in N2O emissions are not offset by unwanted increases in ammonia, methane or carbon dioxide emissions. Despite the abundant availability of mitigation options, implementation in practice is still lagging. Actual implementation will only follow after increased awareness among farmers and greenhouse gases targeted policies. So far, reductions in N2O emissions that have been achieved are mostly a positive side effect of other N-targeted policies.

House hunters can now tour units through virtual reality. Many brokerages are allowing clients to use 3D video tours to view properties. This technology is ideal for showing units to international buyers or for showing unfinished properties. Clients can take virtual reality tours through online presentations, smartphone apps, or by wearing headgear for a full 360-degree view.
Mirador's Licensed Real Estate's Salesperson, Eydie Saleh, is featured in amNewYork commenting on the how economical the technology is. "It saves an enormous amount of money - like hundreds of thousands," she says. She encourages developers to view the virtual reality tours as a primary marketing tool instead of just a bonus tactic in real estate.

The recent Quality Mandate from UGC set forth a set of objectives for all HEI's (Higher Education Institutes) to improve the quality of education imparted to the students. All HEI's have been directed to strive to get a minimum of 50% of the students to employment (includes self-employment). To achieve this objective, the regulator has also directed all HEI's to ensure that essential finishing skills, soft skills and professional skills are imparted to the students to make them industry and job ready.
Often it has been found that the wage premium attached to a University degree is weaning away due to several reasons like the increasing Gross Enrolment Ratio (which means that there are more graduates available in the market today), the instability of large corporates owing to disruptions caused by automation, technology and innovations (average life of a Fortune 500 Corporates has come down from 65 years to 15 years now) and non-alignment of the University curriculum with market reality. Most graduating students are found to be deficient in finishing skills, domain skills and professional skills that lead to their non- selection during job interviews.
Schoolguru, the leader in Online Program Management and TeamLease, the leading HR Services firm of India, together, launched India's first, finishing skills program that uses a multi-modal training strategy: Online, On-the-Job, On-Campus, Always On, Crowdsourced and Gamified!
This ambitious Employment Linked Skilling Program (ELSP) is linked to the AICTE's NEEM program (National Employability Enhancement Mission) and provides apprenticeship opportunities to all students so that they can acquire the necessary skills while being associated with a corporate. Upon completion of their apprenticeships, students are provided with placement assistance by our partner TeamLease. Schoolguru works with various Universities to implement and integrate this ELSP + Apprenticeship + Placement Assistance program for their students.
