In China, jade has long-been prized for its durability and beauty, but what are the hidden dark realities surrounding the milky green gem?
image/video credit: Seeker Stories
The workers in these open-pit mines are badly paid, some getting about one US dollar a day, and ''they have to work 12-hour shifts or longer, sometimes at night, and with little breaks,''.'
The mining companies belong to cronies of the junta. They care little about abusing the people, their rights, and even destroying the environment.''
Chinese presence at the regular gem and jade auctions in Rangoon has grown dramatically in the years since. Early this year, a visiting Asian buyer was struck by the dominance of Chinese at a recent sale of Burmese jade.

The Town of Trochu held their regular Council meeting on Monday, July 16, 2018.
Director of Operations Report
A cracked valve was replaced at the Arboretum and a broken water line was repaired. Summer students assisted with the levelling of the fountain. It was noted in the 'Gardener's Report' that it took a full day with five people working and Tom Bigelow was awarded the electrical work for the irrigation electrical repair and power to Sara's fountain. A permanent path was also installed and a bench platform for viewing. The Arboretum has concerns over some infected elm trees and some lindens and will consult on best practices for managing. For the following month, the Arboretum will focus on the repair of the waterfall and cleanup around the pond.
Operations explained that at the Arena, repairs were made to the waterline of the splash park and a new heater element for the wading pool was installed. Stairs were built and completed for better access to the penalty box at the arena. The stairs enter into the side of the home penalty box with safety glass for protection. The transfer site was broken into and discarded car batteries were taken. The roof was repaired to the transfer site shed. The rusted out bin at the transfer site was removed and replaced with a new one and is expected to last for about 25 years. The Mayor asked that Operations look into costs for trail cameras. The Town of Trochu wagon wheel sign was repainted and modified to match the town logo. The sign has been re-installed. The box has been installed onto the five-ton dump truck and the wait for now is on paint, to be followed by the addition of lights. The delay was noted but the new expected date for completion is July 20. Some potholes were patched with more to be done. Street gutters were shovelled out. Three Hills street sweeper was hired to pick up sand from streets. There has been some organizing and cleaning up of dirt, gravel and sand piles on lots off Elevator Road. Deputy Mayor Reeds received Council support for the idea of utilizing excess dirt to fill in Town lots. Two Town of Trochu Public Works banners were built for the parade.
The sewer hydro-flusher, that will be jointly owned with Three Hills, was ordered and the expected delivery would be early August. Water line repairs were made to the supply line from the Huxley well, as the previous joint had split and washed out. The break occurred in a corner of a farmer's field four miles north of Town. Sewer line repairs were made at a resident's home in Trochu Meadows as the sewer line was originally laid by the developer in an unexpected configuration and two pilings had been drilled through the original sewer line. The Mayor asked, "With excellent engineers, how are we making these errors?" It was noted that going forward, if a lot is sold, Operations will camera the line. Some sewer lines have been flushed and a few water meters replaced and upgraded.
The new Town office renovations are moving along quite fast. The painter has completed all main floor and stairs. LED lights have been ordered, washrooms gutted, flooring ordered, and the contract for window glass replacement and resealing has been awarded locally. The front counter is being built. The air raid siren repairs have been completed, and Digital timer and controls installed in the arena, the power line trenched in, and the concrete pad for the tower was built south of the arena and sounded on July 2. The Tower still needs to be moved, siren mounted and final electrical is to be completed.
Administrator's Report
Carbon has joined the bylaw program, effective July 9 and this means some changes to the bylaw officer's schedule. Protective Services and Emergency Review Committee made the request that Administrators develop a budget for a regional 'Director of Emergency Management' position that could be in conjunction with the Bylaw Officer. The current officer may be retiring at the end of the year.
Once designs are completed for the liner that is to be used at the Lagoon expansion project, then Ghostpine Environmental will be able to make the changes to their application regarding the water act.
The Community Advisory Group for the Senior's Housing project will be holding its first meeting this very evening (July 16) to set up an organizational structure. Administration received information regarding the various forms of Corporations and will be determining the best suited options.
Administration advised that he had received three quotes for the Town's auditor. Administration has also made contact with Watson Pools and a meeting has been scheduled for this coming Wednesday. Eckenfelder Street repairs is nearly complete and Trochu Avenue road base has been reshaped in preparation for paving. Curb repairs for Trochu Avenue and new curbs on Eckenfelder is in progress, though concrete has to cure for a minimum of five days prior to paving. This entire project is expected to be complete by July 23.
Council had some discussion around the community garden and possibly building a few boxes for raised gardens. There was mention of a possible donation.
Councillor Concerns, Reports
Clr. Lumley received support from Council for a thank you note to be sent to the organizer of the dog show. She also advised Council of some of the participants and events being held for the annual Alberta Open Farm Days specific to the Community Futures Wild Rose Region and scheduled for August 18 and 19.
Deputy Mayor Reeds confirmed that the Trochu Golf Club is developing eight additional seasonal camp sites on the hill above the golf course.
In correspondence, the government advised of its plan to remove the culvert on the Highway 21, pedestrian Underpass by Trochu. The Mayor explained that at one time, Trochu owned some land to the west of the golf course for possible course expansion and the culvert was put it as pedestrian underpass. This is no longer a concern and the culvert removal is proposed for next year. At the moment it is in the designing stage.
Council moved to send a letter to Three Hills Victim Services in support of their grant application.

Charges: Assault x 2.
Appeal type: Appeal against sentence.
Facts: The appellant had violently attacked his vulnerable female partner with whom he was in a domestic relationship. The parties were arguing, mostly about the appellant's intoxication and his lifestyle, characterised by his drug and alcohol abuse. The appellant delivered numerous forceful punches to the victim's face, and shortly afterwards, returned and delivered more forceful blows to her head. She did not sustain any fractures, but the conduct was unprovoked and caused her to suffer nightmares. Estcourt J sentenced the appellant to two years' imprisonment with a non-parole period of 18 months.
Issues: Whether the sentence was manifestly excessive.
The appellant submitted that:
Decision and reasoning: The appeal was dismissed. The Court agreed with the sentencing judge's description of the offending as a 'cowardly attack' and his observation that 'Vulnerable women such as the complainant are entitled to the protection of the law against brutal partners, and the community expectation is that such protection will be provided by the Courts' ([29]). Although he did not use a weapon or kick the victim, the nature and strength used was not insignificant. The Court held that although the appellant should not be re-punished for his prior criminal conduct, he was not entitled to any leniency. The Court noted that the appellant had a history of violence towards women. The prevalence of this type of conduct impacts on the community at large. Women in domestic circumstances are particularly vulnerable to the abuse of power and breach of trust by violent male partners (Director of Public Prosecutions v Karklins [2018] TASCCA 6 [54]–[60]). Women who become victims in these circumstances, and other potential victims in the community, are entitled to such protection as the law can provide by the imposition of sentences that will act as both a personal and general deterrent ([37]). Whilst the sentence of two years' imprisonment was towards the upper end of the appropriate range of the sentencing discretion, it was not manifestly excessive, harsh or unjust. Having regard to the appellant's record of prior offending and disregard for court orders, the sentencing judge was found to be lenient in fixing a non-parole period, and the non-parole period of 18 months was within the range of sentencing discretion.
Charges: Assault x 1; Assault on a pregnant woman x 3; Attempt to interfere with a witness x 5; Destroying property x 1.
Appeal type: Prosecution appeal against sentence.
Facts: The respondent and complainant had been living together for 5 months with the complainant's son ([6]). The complainant was 4 weeks pregnant at the time of the offences ([7]). The respondent threatened to leave the complainant, but the complainant asked him to stay ([9]-[10]). The respondent threatened to kill her and the baby. He headbutted the complainant and strangled her three times, causing her to lose consciousness twice ([13]-[16]).
The respondent was arrested and on remand. The respondent told a friend to tell the complainant that if she retracted her statement, he would 'consider getting back with her' ([22]). The complainant did so ([23]). The respondent was sentenced to 1 year and 10 months' imprisonment with a non-parole period of 11 months.
Issues: Whether the sentence was manifestly inadequate.
Decision and Reasoning: Geason J emphasised aggravating features of the case, such as the fact that the respondent had the opportunity to reflect on his conduct between each attack ([55]), that he did not seek help for the complainant ([51]), that the crimes were committed in the context of a domestic relationship ([54]), and that the complainant was unable to defend herself ([50]). Mitigating considerations included the fact that the respondent pleaded guilty early ([61]).
In relation to the charges of interfering with a witness, Geason J at [56] remarked on the importance of such charges in aiding the administration of justice in relation to domestic violence:
The respondent's attempts to frustrate his prosecution should also be seen as particularly serious matters. They were a cynical exercise in emotional blackmail … Domestic violence typically occurs behind closed doors, making detection inherently difficult. Relationship dynamics frequently militate against a prosecution. Conduct directed at interfering with the prosecutorial process undermines the system intended to afford protection to victims of violence, making an inherently difficult process more so … It should be accepted in cases of family violence that attempts to interfere with the due administration of justice by the means of emotional manipulation of a vulnerable victim is a serious matter the consequences of which will always be severe.
Geason J referred to R v Kilic [2016] HCA 48, where the High Court stated at [21] that sentencing practices for offences involving domestic violence may 'depart from past sentencing practices for this category of offence because of changes in societal attitudes to domestic relations'. His Honour at [92] subsequently justified interfering with the sentence on the basis that:
Domestic violence is properly regarded as a most serious form of offending, frequently hidden from view, and thus difficult to detect. The court has a symbolic function. Censure for domestic violence should be communicated through the sentences which are imposed.
His Honour cautioned against giving weight to the complaint's forgiveness of the respondent ([77]). His Honour questioned the sentencing judge's generous characterisation of the respondent's conduct during the assault ([83]-[86]).
Charge/s: Assault x 3; unlawful act intended to cause bodily harm x 1.
Appeal Type: Appeal against sentence.
Facts: The male appellant and the female complainant were in a relationship. The three assault counts occurred in August 2014 and April 2015 after the appellant had been drinking. The appellant punched the complainant in the face, choked her, and fractured her wrist. The final count occurred in June 2015 when, after an argument, the intoxicated appellant threw petrol on the complainant and ignited her. The complainant's daughter heard the screams and rescued her mother. The appellant was sentenced to ten years imprisonment with a non-parole period of six years.
Charge/s: Murder x 2.
Appeal Type: Appeal against sentence.
Facts: The 60 year old appellant murdered his former partner, 31 year old Meagan Wilton, and her new partner, 34 year old Benjamin Eyles, by shooting them with a shotgun. The appellant and Ms Wilton had a 21 month old son together, and Ms Wilton had two other girls, aged 12 and 9. Ms Wilton's youngest daughter and the appellant's son were in the house at the time of the murders. After leaving the premises, the appellant tried to commit suicide by shooting himself in the head. He suffered brain damage, lost the ability to walk, and required visual and hearing aids. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 45 years imprisonment, with a non-parole period of 25 years.
Issue/s: Whether the sentence was manifestly excessive.Decision and Reasoning: The appeal was dismissed. Estcourt J provided the lead judgment, with Blow CJ and Brett J agreeing but providing additional comments. Relevantly, Blow CJ stated that while the punishment here was significant and that there were a number of mitigating factors in the circumstances, these carried little weight in light of the aggravating factors of this case. As per His Honour: '[t]hese were deliberate killings. They were premeditated. They were motivated by vindictiveness towards a former partner' (see [4]). Moreover, '[t]his was a case in which the impact of the killings on survivors [was] particularly significant'. The children who were present in the house could suffer long-term psychological or psychiatric consequences (see [5]). Further, the impact of the crime would be felt by family members raising the children, and police officers who worked on this case.
Charges: Aggravated burglary, Unlawful act intended to cause bodily harm, Breach of family violence order, Motor vehicle stealing, Destroying property
Appeal type: Appeal against sentence
Facts: The appellant and the protected person had been in a domestic relationship that ended towards the end of 2012. As a result of the appellant threatening to cut her throat and burn her house down, the protected person moved away from Hobart. Early in 2015, her house was burnt down, although no one was charged. The protected person then moved back to Hobart and entered into a new relationship. The appellant threatened her new partner, resulting in a family violence order restraining him from approaching the protected person.
On the day of offending, the appellant went to the protected person's home, kicked the front door, smashed a window, drew a knife and threatened to kill her. The appellant then lunged towards the protected person who cut her hand as a result of trying to stop him. When the protected person's partner came to assist, the appellant was holding the knife to the protected person's throat and threatened 'Why shouldn't I kill him'. When her partner attempted to separate them, the appellant stabbed him in the stomach. In relation to this conduct the appellant was charged and pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated burglary, two counts of committing an unlawful act intended to cause bodily harm, three breaches of a family violence order, one count of motor vehicle stealing, and one count of destroying property. He was sentenced to seven years' imprisonment with no non-parole period.
The appellant had a long history of dishonest and violent offending commencing from childhood. When given the benefit of suspended sentences, bonds and parole in relation to these offences, the appellant breached them. A psychologist's report noted the appellant had extremely low to borderline intellectual functioning and could be considered to have a mild intellectual disability. This was substantially the result of substance abuse in the view of the psychologist. The sentencing magistrate did not consider this as a mitigating factor, concluding there was a significant risk he would re-offend and therefore there was a need for specific deterrence.
Issue: Whether the sentence was manifestly excessive due to the magistrate failing to order a non-parole period.
Decision and reasoning: The appeal was dismissed.
Tennent J, with whom Porter and Pearce JJ agreed, held that the issue of whether or not to order a parole period is a matter for the discretion of the sentencing judge. His Honour took into account the relevant factors including the appellant's offending history and disregard for orders in refusing to grant a non-parole order. The psychologist report did not suggest rehabilitation was likely. The sentencing judge therefore did not err in failing to order a non-parole period and the sentence was not manifestly excessive.
Charges: Attempted murder (two counts)
Appeal Type: Appeal against sentence
Facts: The appellant's relationship with his wife deteriorated after she told him that she had a sexual relationship with another man. She moved out of the family home. The appellant attempted to kill his two sons by blowing up the family car when they were sitting in it with him. He was unsuccessful but he caused an explosion and a very fierce fire. His two sons suffered life-threatening burns. Their injuries are ongoing and they will have 'functional and cosmetic problems for life'. They are at risk of ongoing psychological harm. The impact on their mother was devastating. The trial judge was satisfied that the appellant intended to kill the boys to 'deprive his wife of them' or to 'spite his wife' ([29]). He was sentenced to 20 years' imprisonment with a non-parole period of 15 years.
Issue: Whether the sentence was manifestly excessive.
Decision and Reasoning: The appeal was upheld in respect of the non-parole period. Estcourt J (with whom Tennent J agreed) held that the head sentence of 20 years was not excessive. The offending was serious and both victims were young children. However, Estcourt J noted that there was one act that impacted both victims. While the sentence encompassed the entirety of the appellant's criminal behaviour, he should not be sentenced for his conduct twice.
Counsel for the appellant submitted that even if the head sentence was not excessive, the non-parole period was excessive because of factors such as his lack of prior relevant offending, the unlikelihood of any re-offending 'given the crime was directly related to his family circumstances' and the fact that 'it could not be said that the appellant's "incorrigibility" justified the setting of the non-parole period at 75% of the head sentence' ([38]). Estcourt J (Tennent J agreeing) accepted these submissions notwithstanding the appellant's almost complete lack of remorse and reduced the non-parole period to 12 years.
Wood J agreed with Estcourt J's reasoning with respect to the head sentence but dissented in regards to the non-parole period. At [7]-[21], her Honour engaged in general discussion about the applicable principles in determining the most appropriate non-parole period. Wood J then noted at [23] a number of considerations relevant to the nature of the crime. These included that it involved deliberate acts to kill two young children, the appellant's 'vindictive motive to inflict maximum anguish and emotional trauma upon his wife', his son's extensive injuries and degree of emotional suffering and physical pain, risks to their psychological well-being and the torment and harm suffered by his wife. It was appropriate for the sentencing judge to give effect to the aims of denunciation and retribution and, 'the goal of assuaging informed moral outrage of the community, reasserting society's values and giving proper weight to the harm done to the victims' ([24]).
Charges: Arson, Assault
Appeal Type: Appeal against sentence
Facts: The appellant suffered from depression and became abusive and intimidating towards his wife. After she ended the relationship, the appellant became angry and upset. He cornered his wife in a shed, pushed her to the chest, grabbed her around the throat and squeezed for four seconds, causing her to become very fearful. The appellant asked to see his four children. His wife then walked with him to the car, got in and locked the doors before attempting to drive off and call the police. However, the appellant grabbed the vehicle and punched the window, which caused it to shatter. His wife then attended her children's school. Meanwhile, the appellant poured methylated spirits onto the main bedroom of their house, set fire to the bed and left knowing the bed was on fire. The house was damaged beyond repair. An insurance claim was denied. The impact of the offending on the appellant's wife and children was very significant. He was sentenced to four years and six months' imprisonment, with a non-parole period of two years and nine months.
Decision and Reasoning: The appeal was upheld in respect of issue 1.
The appellant submitted that various mitigating factors existed ([39]) and that the sentence was outside the range of permissible sentences for arson. Further, the appellant submitted that the assault was brief and no physical harm was caused. The respondent conceded that the assault would not add to a sentence imposed for arson, but submitted that it was relevant as a course of conduct and to demonstrate the appellant's attitude towards his wife ([44]). Porter J (with whom Wood J and Tennent J agreed) held that while the head sentence was very high, it was not outside the permissible range: 'The appellant intentionally set fire to the house and intentionally caused its entire destruction. His motive for doing so was to exact some sort of vengeance on his estranged wife intending to destroy his wife's interest in the building and its availability as a home'…'This was obsessive and possessive conduct, involving some violence, committed in the aftermath of a broken relationship. It is the type of conduct which simply cannot be tolerated' ([52]-[53]).Nevertheless, the non-parole period was found to be excessive. Porter J noted that in considering the length of a non-parole period, the issue is whether the period makes the sentence manifestly excessive, '"sentence" in this context, being used in a broader sense' ([56]). The non-parole period amounted to a little over 60% of the head sentence. Given factors such as the appellant's prior good character, his mental health condition and apparent remorse ([60]), the non-parole period made the overall sentence manifestly excessive and was therefore reduced to one half of the head sentence.
Charge: Assault (five counts)
Appeal Type: Appeal against sentence
Facts: The appellant lived intermittently with his partner (the complainant). The first count occurred when, during an argument, the appellant grabbed the complainant by the throat, forced her to the floor, punched her to the head multiple times and kicked her to the hip as she tried to stand up. The second assault occurred when the complainant was in her three-year-old child's bed. The appellant pointed a knife at the complainant and threatened to stab her if she did not give him her phone (i.e. an assault by means of a threatening gesture). The child remained asleep throughout the incident. The next count occurred when the appellant kicked the complainant between the legs twice, which caused her to fall to the floor. The final count was again an assault by means of a threatening gesture and involved the appellant sharpening knives and threatening to kill or violently assault the complainant. The appellant was arrested but escaped on arrival at the police station and was not found until 10 days later. While the complainant did not suffer serious physical injuries, there were lasting psychological consequences for her and her daughter. The appellant had a significant criminal history. He was sentenced to three years' imprisonment with a non-parole period of two years. Before being sentenced for these offences, he was sentenced to another 3 years' imprisonment (with a two-year non-parole period) in respect of 50 unrelated offences. This resulted in an aggregate sentence of six years' imprisonment with a four-year non-parole period.
Issue: Whether the sentence was manifestly excessive.
Decision and Reasoning: The appeal was upheld. 'The ordeal that the appellant inflicted on his partner was horrific. He had many opportunities to desist from assaulting her, but did so over and over again, with their young daughter in the house. It was an unusually bad case of family violence. The only appropriate penalty was a significant cumulative sentence of imprisonment.' ([20]).
Counsel for the appellant submitted that the fact the appellant was unlikely to be granted parole (even if eligible) should have been taken into account in his favour. The Court rejected this argument, holding that this is not an appropriate consideration in determining the sentence. However, the magistrate imposed the two-year non-parole period for the assault offences so as to not impose a crushing sentence. If the head sentence of three years was 'crushing', a non-parole period should not be regarded as changing that situation because parole may not be granted. Given the length of the sentence in combination with the fact that the complainant suffered no physical injuries, the head sentence was disproportionate to the gravity of the offending and the aggregate term was also disproportionate. The appellant was re-sentenced for the assault offences to 18 months' imprisonment with a non-parole period of 12 months.
Charge: Arson
Appeal type: Appeal against conviction
Facts: The appellant was tried by jury and found guilty of arson purely on the basis of circumstantial evidence. It was alleged that he unlawfully set fire to the house of his former female partner. She gave evidence that the night before the fire the appellant slept over at her place. She and the appellant argued the next morning as she was leaving the property. He called her a 'leg-opening slut' and said that if she left he was going to burn the house down. She left and not long after received a phone call from the appellant who asked whether she was 'warm enough'. She returned home to find the house on fire. Evidence was also given by a neighbour that he heard the appellant and his former partner arguing that morning for 10 minutes. He ignored the argument and did not claim to have seen the appellant on the morning of the fire.
Before trial, the appellant pleaded guilty to breaching a family violence order on the day of the fire by approaching his former partner and calling her a 'leg-opening cunt'. The Crown alleged that this amounted to an admission of guilt. At trial, the appellant asserted that he did not realise the significance of this date and that he had used those words but not on the day of the fire. The appellant's younger sister provided the appellant with an alibi. She said he was asleep at their mother's place on the morning of the fire.
Issues: Some of the grounds of appeal were:
Decision and Reasoning: The appeal was upheld and the conviction set aside.

Scott Taylor was named chief investment officer of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, New York, effective Sept. 4, the foundation said in a news release.
Mr. Taylor replaces John Hull, who retired March 31 after 16 years at the $6.8 billion foundation.
Mr. Taylor is currently the managing director of investment partnerships with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, Toronto, which manages investments for the C$356.1 billion ($274.4 billion) Canada Pension Plan, Ottawa, said the Mellon Foundation release.
Representatives of the foundation and CPPIB did not respond to calls for more information.
At the foundation, Mr. Taylor "will oversee the foundation's investment portfolio ... and will be a member of the senior management team that advises the president on strategic and policy matters," the news release said.
"Scott's breadth of experience and depth of knowledge across a wide range of investment strategies, as well as his proven leadership skills, make us confident that the Mellon Foundation will be able to continue to provide generous support to the arts, humanities and higher education," said Eric Mindich, chairman of the foundation's investment committee, in the release.

Presentation and discussion of current research in transnational studies with a focus on theories of international relations, international political economy, international law, and regional studies. The Survey Courses take place in block format during the first year of study.
Courses in research methods belong to one of two categories:
This course offered by the Hertie School of Governance (Hertie School) provides an introduction to quantitative research methods for public policy. By the end of the semester, students should become better acquainted with quantitative methods conducive to empirical policy research and gain the ability to understand and critique the techniques employed by others. No prior knowledge of statistics is assumed and we will make every effort to address concepts both quantitatively and theoretically. Additionally, every student will attend a weekly lab session run by a teaching assistant in which concepts will be reinforced, where possible, through hands-on application using Stata. The goal of this course is not only to produce sophisticated consumers of quantitative research but to provide the necessary skills for students to conduct their own research. As such, we go beyond the conventional stopping point for an introductory statistics course and spend several weeks on multiple regression.

The search for positive deviant (PD) schools in Kenya, commissioned by TWAWEZA EAST AFRICA and spearheaded by Dr. Sheila Wamahiu with a team of JASLIKA researchers, found its way to one of the ASAL (Arid and Semi-Arid Land) regions in Kenya early September, 2017.
Why ASAL?
Because the PD approach seeks to unearth the wisdom hidden within the most marginalized and vulnerable even unusual suspects with the aim to amplify the same for sustainable organizational and community transformation. The approach strategically looks for "positive deviants". These are individuals or groups, who in comparison to their peers, employ uncommon strategies and behaviours to find better solutions to problems even when facing serious challenges. Such individuals are ordinarily invisible to others in the community and especially to change agents (Singhal, 2013).
The PD approach gathers ideas from different players in an organization, institution or community. Thus, part of the search by JASLIKA involved listening to and learning from children – ordinarily a group that is ignored by many when it comes to generating ideas for solving problems. A lot was learnt. The study report is expected to be out soon.
Interacting with those children truly brought home the meaning of resilience. In the midst of hunger, thirst, walking long distances to school, and myriad other challenges the children can still smile, play and do much better in examinations than many of their peers in other more friendly regions swimming in all sorts of comfort. This goes to show that resilience is about attitude and attitude is a key driver of success. With the right attitude resonating across the three key stakeholders in education, namely, teachers, pupils and parents/community then they can overcome any hurdle to bring transformation to their community through education. From this experience, it is clearly evident that with the right attitude and support every child can scale great heights of success regardless of their circumstances.

Chris123729 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 25 designs submitted by 13 freelance designers.
We are a hair extension focus salon. We have a logo but would like to do a refresh on the concept. It will be used for online purposes and print. The main target audience will be women from the ages of 22-35. The design needs to be clean, chic, and fashion forward.
I would like a family crest or coat of arms designed using the crown and font of our current logo. I have included some examples of family crests that I like. In addition, there is a pic Lady Godiva and of a mermaid from Pirates of the Caribbean. Would be cool to incorporate long hair etc into the design.
I like clean design as well as kitschy retro fun. We are a group of artistic people that need a symbol to represent that creativity.
If it helps, I really like the whimsical and fun design of http://www.whatisblik.com/

It's vital for you to take control of your website.
We all need to stand behind how we appear online. In business, the website communicates the soul of your company, what you sell and also what you stand for. If you control it, it's like being able to print marketing material on demand for new products, new offerings, new services and packages. Some people get stuck here as it can be overwhelming. This is a shame as you don't need to become a programmer to master your online space.
My work (and this website) is to give you ideas, tools, inspiration and motivation to control your website, so who you are and what you do online serve your business, and your existing and future customers feel loved and welcome.
Some clients don't have time to update their website more than twice per year but their website looks good as the content is adapted and doesn't need to be touched often. At the other end, somebody who has a web-based business needs to perfect a website because this is the ultimate sales channel.
When we work together, you'll see that they are simple ways to get quick and tangible results whatever your activity, the size of your business or the amount of time you're willing to put into your web presence.
I can create the tech space (website, video, print) and/or the content for you.
I'll help you with everything you need related to your website: design, copy, videos, photos or graphics, social media, seo, domain name, hosting... Depending on the type of project, the size of your website, its functionality and your level of involvement, I'll deliver everything within a week or a month max. For large video projects (interviews, corporate, promotional, graphic motion...), strengthened by our partnership with www.decideurstv.com who have undertaken over 8,000 projects since 2007 including CAC40 companies and start ups, I'll give you the highest level of service. For any print, I'll send a quote on request.
The largest number of my clients are micro-businesses or start-ups, but larger groups like to work with me to get a fresh entrepreneurial and expert insight as well as simple, practical and actionable tools to move their digital marketing to its next step, boost sales and create connectedness. I'll make sure your website and what you do online are in line with your goals and transform visitors into new customers. Fees can be negotiated depending on the type and the duration of your project.
Why I use Wordpress for your website
- Wordpress is unlimited in term of design customisation.
- You're not reliant on any company staying in business. After I've created your website, you're totally independent and in control.
- Nobody will control your terms of service, your domain name, etc. Nothing will be dictated by anyone else, including your marketing email provider.
In a few words,
M y name is Frédérique. I'm an entrepreneur, marketeer, passionate about the digital space, unshakable activator dedicated to help you succeed online. For as long as I remember, I always loved to involve myself in building projects and ensure their success.
Ten years ago, I gave up the security of 9-5 and through my own digital and marketing company, I've had a great deal of satisfaction in helping companies and individuals like you to develop their businesses with website, branding, print, video & meaningful actions to create results.
Born-and-raised French, now living in London, I enjoy working for clients on both side of the Channel. I have a generalist background (History, Geopolitic of the Media at University) complemented with the experience of selling for luxury brands, organising private events & conferences with UNESCO and journalism. I started my career in Paris, in the creative and account management field, such as branding, advertising, sales, services and products, all of which were high profile, highly visible projects and high pressure.
Insatiably curious, I love to go deeper into the market of my clients and understand who are their customers. I'm also always learning about what exactly it is that makes companies genuinely successful and thrive online.
When we work together, my ultimate goal is that you are empowered and feel tech educated and in control.
If we haven't met yet, I hope to have the pleasure to meet you soon.
Frédérique x

Personal preference(Edited: )
"I'm not talking about the graphic , i'm talking about the gameplay , balance , strategy."
It's fine to talk about gameplay, balance, and strategy, but graphics cannot be entirely neglected either. I guess ultimately it boils down to personal preference.
I view the differences between Broodwar and Starcraft 2 as points in favor of SC2, whereas other people in this thread look at the same points and score them for Broodwar.
To me, SC2 is the better game for the following reasons:
1. Every season there are a limited number of maps that are played on the ladder, which makes it interesting. When I stopped playing BW, there were 200+ official maps, but most games were either BGH or Lost Temple. I prefer the rotation of maps, while still keeping the pool down to less than 10, so that one can learn the intricacies of the maps and get variety as well.
2. The single player campaign of Wings of Liberty was the best Starcraft story in my opinion. It made a lot more sense than being forced to assist Kerrigan in BW, even though it was already clear that she'd backstab everyone. I also didn't want to support Alarac in the equally absurd Legacy of the Void Storyline, but again didn't get a choice. In Wings of Liberty at least there were some decisions to be made. Thus my personal ranking of the single player experience is as such: WoL, SC1, HotS, LotV, BW.
3. Multiplayer: Granted, the difference in skill was a lot more pronounced in BW. I remember a game where a guy rofl stomped me and my ally, because he kited Zealots with his Vultures, while also building up his base. With all the automatisms in SC2 the game is easier, but at the same time the matchmaking system with the leagues is a lot better than the old BW system. It feels good to work up from Bronze League to Platinum against players of comparable skill and there are still higher tiers that the competitive people can shoot for, while not turning off the bronze leaguers from the game. The hardcore audience may dislike it, but anything that brings in new players and keeps them happy is great, imho.
Those are my reasons and of course it is perfectly fine for other people to prefer BW for their reasons and the value they assign to certain aspects.

After rolling out the armour the other day, it's the turn of the transports. I may as well start with the big guy; the Caestus Assault Ram. This was a beast of a kit, not particularly difficult to assemble but boy it's a heavy chunk of reason.
Just like the tanks the palette and methods are largely the same with again a couple of minor deviations to accommodate for sheer size and the fact it is a flyer rather than ground unit. I applied a lot less oils in the weathering and instead used the airbrush to apply dust along lower edges and where the backwash would throw it over the wings. I also focused more black along leading edges off the front and wings to simulate the effects of atmospheric re-entry and the scorching on inner hull from the massive Magna-melta.
Stripey McStripe-Face
With so much flat surface I felt some contrast markings were needed to break it up so I broke out the Tamiya masking tape to create a few extra geometries. They also help emphasise the speed and movement. To get the chipping effect I stippled on masking fluid before applying the off-white. This was removed after the paint had dried with a piece of poster putty (Blu-Tac) to reveal the paintwork underneath. Simple.
I also painted the interiors, not just for the Caestus, but also the two Rhino's below. The front ramps are also magnetised so they stay shut during flight. Not essential but I get frustrated by flapping doors on model. Or flapping 'anything' for that matter!
Similar to the Scorpius tarnished metal featured strongly in my palette for the Caestus as I wanted it to look heavily reinforced; this is a ship that ramps itself into the side of Starships to board them. All of the metals shown are a base of Games Workshop Leadbelcher, through Ironbreaker up to Mithril, the difference in tones is purely down to selective glazes of sepia and black
I will talk briefly about the base however before moving onto the Rhino's. I used the exact same method of cork tiles, mixed talus and pigments to create the groundworks. With a large base however I find that's often not enough and at least one of two interest pieces need to be added to fill the otherwise rather empty space. In this instance I used a couple of pieces of plastic gothic ruins which I set at a 'jaunty' angle for fun to play with the flyers movement. These were airbrushed same time as the rest of the base for speed and given a wash of camo shade. To avoid getting any unwanted paint or pigments on the flight stand itself I taped off the bottom with masking tape and covered the rest with plastic food wrap (clingfilm).
Phew, that was a lot for one party-bus! I was very happy with the final outcome, the Caestus is an imposing miniature but wasn't convinced I was playing it correctly as it always started in reserve for me and half of the games it never even turned up, which is a bit of a problem with riding inside is my Praetor and Cataphractii bro-band. I also found the 'scary-on-paper' Magna-melta a bit of a let down when the massive 5″ template kept scattering wildly off target. Overall score – "could try harder"
Nice brute of a model though. Next time, old faithful; the Rhino.
Have a great week.

- Issue 1: Born of Fire
Blurb: "Aidus, a young paladin in command of an isolated border colony, soon realizes his inexperience is more than dangerous... it's deadly! Raiding orcs, a fiery sorceress, true love, and mysterious new companions are only a few of the dangers Aidus must face, as tensions in the border town bubble over!"
- Issue 2: Forged in Tears
Blurb: "While the paladin Aidus journeys to the capital with his new ally, the powerful sorcerer Zed-Kraken, the beautiful half-elf Vail fights a lone battle against a pair of savage were-rats! Will Aidus survive a duel to the death, not to mention political conflicts and assassinations? And who are the mysterious were-rats, and what of the other pair watching and waiting in the shadows? And what is the tragic past that ties all our heroes together? Find out, if you dare!"
- Issue 3: Tempered in Fellowship
Blurb: "The bold new era of Dungeons & Dragons continues! In the capital city, Aidus and Zed-Kraken continue to struggle against their mysterious and powerful attacker. Meanwhile, the rest of the fellowship bands together for a dangerous journey into the Barrier Peaks, hoping to bring an end to Mistress Flame's reign of destruction. Will anyone survive to reach the end of the story? And just who is the griffon-riding "Stealth"... a strange new ally, or a deadly new enemy? Find out, if you dare...."
- Issue 4: Sheathed in Justice
Blurb: "The paladin Aidus and his adventurers confront the Minions of Evil within a forgotten dungeon. Traps, undead guardians and the Fire Sorceress Mistress Flame all wait to test the companions. Who will fall in battle? The fantastic conclusion to the Tempest Gate mini-series!"
More importantly, could the Tempest's Gate comics be raided to give you a background story or NPCs for a tabletop game?
EDIT: Do any of the characters from these comics appear in any other GH sources?

Teacher Appreciation In The Schools
My wife teaches pre-K in a poor area. The kids come from different kinds of families including those who don't speak much English. It's challenging work. She's a natural at it, which is to say that she has been doing it so well and thoughtfully for so long that she makes it look natural, almost effortless.
On Teacher Appreciation Day some kids and families brought her gifts. Our country doesn't value children so my wife's salary is crap and she has no benefits, but kids and parents know a good teacher when they see her and bring gifts when occasions come along. It was all very nice and my wife was very appreciative.
The next day she came home with one more gift bag. Inside I saw an unopened box of Wegmans cereal. Honey? I asked, pointing to the bag, expecting a ridiculous story. Instead, I learned of grace and wonder.
One child, seeing other kids presenting my wife with gifts, was horrified not to have anything to give. She must have said as much to her family. Remember that we're talking about a four-year-old who doesn't speak much English and lives in poverty. Picture her making a fuss about how she's just got to have something to give teacher. The parent has a gift bag but no present. The parent or kid sees an unopened box of cereal and this seems right to one or both of them. Into the bag it goes and the kid comes to school thrilled to present my wife with a gift.
My wife accepts the gift bag without looking into it, gives the kid a big hug and thank you, her face the very picture of gratitude and love. I know that face and look, having had the good fortune of all that turned on me from time to time, so I know that kid felt like she was the hub of the universe, deserving all the love my wife showed her. I like sitting here imagining that moment of wonder and grace that is made all the more poignant with a four-year-old desperate to give something to her teacher.
I mean, come on. This is beautiful stuff.
Later, my wife sees the box of cereal. For just a moment her face forms a question mark, but then she realizes the significance of this gift, the beauty of it, and knows that she has been presented with something special, maybe something spectacular. This is what she does: she sees the wonder in these things though she doubts the wonder of herself that brings on such acts of kindness.
I filled a bowl with that cereal this morning. I poured milk over it and maybe a tear or two that I was blinking away because of the image of that little kid, her need to give, and the woman who glowed receiving it. God I'm in love with this world and especially in love with that woman.

You probably don't need a bunch of charts to tell you just how sketchy the stock market's behavior has been of late, but we'll give them to you anyway.
We won't even include the obvious one: The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.95% took it on the chin during that nasty October stretch and hasn't been getting much love from November, either. Stocks are staging a comeback Thursday, with the blue chip index up nearly 200 points, and the S&P 500 SPX, -0.39% and Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.83% also solidly in the green at this point. But there is still plenty of ugly out there to keep things in perspective.
Let's dive into some specific alarm bells.
Apple on the precipice
Take the granddaddy of all tech stocks. Shares of Apple AAPL, +0.48% have plunged over 10% in the past three months. Though the stock is rebounding today, the selloff has knocked Apple's market capitalization below $900 billion for the first time in about six months, and, as you can see from the chart below from Wednesday, shares have been dancing around bear market levels — a decline of 20% or more from bull-market highs — for the first time since August 2016.
Still, Apple shares are up about 11% year-to-date, and if the stock manages to pull out a close in the green today, it could signal that plenty of traders are taking the advice to buy the dip.
Deathcrosses, big and small
Apple isn't the only FAANG stock whose chart was blaring out warning signs this week.
Google-parent Alphabet GOOGL, -0.67% GOOG, -0.60% saw its short-term 50-day moving average fall beneath its long-term 200-day moving average on Thursday for the first time in two years. This formation is known as the dreaded "DEATH CROSS!"
As MarketWatch's Tomi Kilgore explains, some chart watchers believe the cross marks the spot a shorter-term slump morphs into a longer-term downtrend.
Google isn't the first of the Big Techs to produce a deathcross (Facebook FB, -2.38% stock did so on Sept. 20), and it won't be the last. Netflix NFLX, -6.15% is on its way there, perhaps as soon as Monday, and it's looking like Amazon AMZN, -1.68% could follow at some point in December.
Moving from the massive to the small, the small-cap Russell 2000 RUT, -0.41% produced a deathcross in its chart on Wednesday.
PG&E loses over half its value
Elsewhere, the financial impact of the California fires can clearly be seen in what's happening in this PG&E Corp. PCG, -0.89% chart. The utility has said its insurance may not cover the possible losses from what's called the Camp Fire, now the worst wildfire in California history.
Shares have lost 48% this week, and nearly 60% since Nov. 8, the date that PG&E reported to the California Public Utilities Commission of the failure of some of its equipment in the area of Butte County near the city of Paradise where the fire is understood to have started.
Bitcoin 'capitulation'
Bitcoin BTCUSD, +0.52% has been in a downward trend for much of the year, but yesterday it went into a seeming freefall. The price of the No. 1 digital currency is now well below $6,000, its lowest level in over a year.
Over the past 24 hours the total value of all cryptocurrencies has lost more than $30 billion to a one-year low of $181 billion, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
Pound gets pummeled
The British pound GBPUSD, -0.0231% tanked Thursday amid a new flurry of Brexit-related officials resigning their posts.
And this action might just be the tip of the iceberg in the event that British parliament can't pass a plan to manage the transition period around exiting the EU, an outcome labeled a "no-deal Brexit."
Then there's oil
Oil US:CLZ8 has also endured some violent selling, having broken into bear-market territory in less than six weeks. Bloomberg's Tracy Alloway captured the action in the crude pits with this tweet of the CBOE oil volatility index OVX, -3.39%.

Inspired by Joseph Duffy, a little research, and my own proprietary typeface for my Elton John Honky Chateau album, I chose to create a present-day display font that expresses with its very lines the complex relationship between our emotional humanity and the mathematic and scientific principles which inhabit our minds and drive our existence.
Circles and rectangles in geometrically matched, expanded, contracted, and rotated proportions were spliced and merged to create upper and lower case letters, numerals, and punctuation. Flourish elements were applied to upper case letters to create a secondary upper case set of even greater emotional and visual impact. Three typefaces were created based on thin, regular, and heavy weights. Also designed were additional flourishes which have the ability to be added to nearly every letter in a build-it-yourself system to augment further the typefaces illustratively.
While Rocket Man is a highly-structured font, it expresses a graceful beauty. Its strength, flexibility and illustrative qualities should appeal to any typographic project that wishes to reach a highly educated and creative demographic. Guided by past and present design work of Herb Lubalin and Jay Fletcher, Rocket Man might carry us into the future in ways we yet cannot imagine.

– ISIN DE0008430026 (WKN 843 002) –Dividend Notice
On 25 April 2013, the Annual General Meeting of our Company resolved that the net retained profits for 2012 of €1,255,388,484.00 be utilised as follows:
|Payment of a dividend of €7.00 on each dividend-bearing share
|Carried forward to new account
|Net retained profits
The dividend, which will be subject to deduction of 25% German
withholding tax, 5.5% solidarity surcharge on the tax withheld (a
total of 26.375%) and, where applicable, also church tax on the tax
withheld, will be paid out as from 26 April 2013 as follows:
For shareholders subject to taxation in Germany, the dividend will be paid out without deduction of withholding tax, solidarity surcharge and, where applicable, church tax if they have provided their depository bank with a "Nichtveranlagungsbescheinigung" (certificate from the competent German tax authority confirming that they are not subject to a German tax assessment procedure). The same applies in whole or in part to shareholders who have submitted an exemption application form to their depository bank, provided that the tax exemption amounts allowed for in this application have not already been exhausted by other investment income.
With the deduction of tax, the German income tax for private investment income is, in principle, deemed to have been paid. Independent of this, application may be made to have the dividend assessed together with other investment income if this is likely to lead to a lower individual income tax burden.
For foreign shareholders, the withholding tax and the solidarity surcharge withheld may be reduced pursuant to the existing agreements for the avoidance of double taxation between the Federal Republic of Germany and the respective foreign country. Applications for the refund of withholding tax must be submitted to the German Federal Central Tax Office, 53221 Bonn, Germany, no later than 31 December 2017.

Member Highlight – Mary Boscia
"Taking me outside of my comfort zone and pushing me beyond what I ever think I can do and that's really helped me personally"
Mary was a blank slate with no experience in lifting weights or how to move her body properly. She was looking for a change in how she looks, feels, eats and lives! With a full-time management job, kids and a busy household stress and self-care was a major issue but while working out at Link she received the help both mentally and physically to deal with her busy schedule and daily stressors.
Since her program at Link, Mary has not only lost body fat and has clothes fitting better, but she has also improved sleep, gained more confidence, feeling better about herself and a pride in her workouts.
Link provides tools to get you towards goals.
Want results like Mary?

Hi! My name is Angelina and I am a homeschooling mother of five children and a wife to a wonderful man who supports all my diverse endeavors. In 2004, we became Orthodox Christians. The flexibility of homeschooling has given us the opportunity to learn and grow in our faith and in our family relationships these last several years.
I have a pretty eclectic approach to homeschooling, but tend toward "the gentle art of learning," which is Charlotte Mason. Science and nature, history and reading are my boys favorite subjects! But, I enjoy writing so I am always looking for ways to inspire them and me to think and write. We live on a couple of acres of forested land and enjoy having chickens and playing in the creeks and nature that surrounds us. This site is an attempt to "squeeze the sponge" and share some of our world with those who may be interested to learn from our experiences.

I am absolutely loosing my mind in looking forward to Christmas this year. Halloween decor didn't happen too much, but I've got boxes and boxes of Christmas decorations and ornaments and all that good stuff. (Craig doesn't know what's coming!)
I am way into trees...um, makes sense since my daddy and someday baby daddy are mountain men. So...if you see any awesome tree decor around SPEAK UP! and let me know :) We have a big fir tree in the back field (I can't really call it a yard) and I really want to put Christmas light on it...Craig will truly think I have lost it. :)
(Yay! Only 1 1/2 more days of work this week!...that's right Kam...took Thursday off too)

An identity created for an international travelling exhibition, 'Japanese Architecture: A History', for a D&AD brief in 2014. Inspired by the mountainous Japanese terrain and trees that form the wooden structures that typify Japanese architecture, elements included: a unique logo, poster, pin badges, invitation, tote bag and website look and feel.
I was invited to exhibit the poster design in Chicago in September 2016, as part of an exhibition celebrating graphic design as an art form.
In 2018 NYC based footwear label THEY, reached out to collaborate on an exclusive sneaker design that borrowed the unique pattern.

Teng, Fish Sausage
Outstanding in Creativity | FOOD
"The objective of the package design is initially created for changing the old package as a new line of product development (new SKU for new target)
The culture of Thai-Chinese shows many design development in Thailand, especially in Food culture. Chinese sausage is one of very traditional and it is very fascinating to disrupt the way they are, and to attract new target with new way of product display.
The way we design is based on the old purpose of product, Chinese sausage that made by Seven-striped barb's meat.
What we draft up is the sketch design on for the sausage cover with Seven-striped barb pattern and green-red mixed color at the tails area as the actual color with modern drawing to make it cute and catch attention easily. The cover is partially wrap to let buyer see the sausage meat and with the traditional way on braided rope for the sausage to make it easy to hang and sell. New package contains two sausages, this could let them buy easier instead of four pieces of sausages for 1 portion."

Elizabeth Merriman, Certified Reflexologist:
(360) 606-6946
For more information about reflexology, some websites are helpful:
http://www.reflexology-usa.net/facts.htm and
Elizabeth is trained in the very effective "Ingham Method" of reflexology. She works on building immune function, resolving pain complaints, including inflammation, as well as organ system imbalance by stimulating zones on the feet and/or hands and/or ears to balance the systems that are out of balance and other systems which may be affecting the noticeable problematic organ systems, including hormonal balance.
Laurie has experienced Elizabeth's healing work and has reduction of pain complaints after these treatments, and Laurie highly recommends giving reflexology a try for people with chronic pain complaints and especially for treatment of peripheral neuropathy. Many other imbalances, such as digestive or other organ dis-ease improve with reflexology treatments. Elizabeth prefers working on women and children exclusively.
Peripheral Neuropathy, which is numbness or strange sensations in the hands or feet, can be caused by a variety of imbalances, including chemotherapy and diabetes or sciatic nerve damage, and is VERY likely to be improved with reflexology treatments.

I made a series of feather drawings in preparation for this book cover I did. Only one made the cut for the final design.
The book is the Danish edition of Daily Guidance From Your Angels by Doreen Virtue; a book with a little meditation for each day.
According to Doreen's site Angel Therapy, today's meditation is:
»You have the power to create or eliminate stress, debt, and pain. Today, choose peace.«

Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program
A dedicated group of lake association volunteers are committed to monitoring water quality that promotes healthy lake ecosystems and environmental management. There are currently 15 lakes now doing monitoring and this has grown from an initial 5 from when the program started in 2012.
Each lake monitoring volunteer are trained and collect data either monthly or bimonthly prior to it being submitted to the Department of Environment and Local Government (DELG). This data together with information on climatic events at the time will help to paint a picture of New Brunswick lakes and the impact of climate change on lake health. Many lakes have experienced increasing water temperatures and lower water levels which can and, in some incidents, have contributed to blue-green algae colonization. The program also utilizes underwater cameras to document changes in lake vegetation along the shoreline.
Education of residents is foremost in the Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program and centers around utilizing phosphate free products, promoting septic system health and mainlining shoreline vegetation to prevent run off as well as avoiding putting any additional strain on already compromised ecosystems.
The Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program was the initial focus of the NBALA, whose focus has expanded to other areas of interest in preserving the health of New Brunswick lakes.

The folks there, as Tenacious D would say, had their asses blown out—thanks to this insane ad from Jamie Casino. The lawyer filled the entire first local ad break with the two-minute heavy-metal masterpiece below, which basically tells his life story. A Saul Goodman-esque figure, Casino was a lawyer to the crooks until something bad happened to him—and he reinvented himself. (No, he's not managing a Cinnabon in Omaha.) The commercial is completely nuts, and completely entertaining. Grade: A. Sharehttp://adweek.it/1bjZnVl copy Adweek Adweek

Roy Hodgson has revealed he has postponed retirement like Sir Alex Ferguson to save Fulham from relegation.
The 60-year-old agreed two years ago to join former club Inter Milan as an assistant to the president Massimo Moratti after coaching Finland.
But like the Manchester United boss, Hodgson, who faces Chelsea in his first game tomorrow, admitted he got "cold feet" after nearly taking the Finns to Euro 2008.
"The job with Inter would have been a lot easier and a lot less pressure," said Hodgson, who managed Blackburn for 17 months in 1997-98.
"But the Finnish job had gone so well and, as the day approached for me to hang up the boots, I got cold feet on the subject.
"I've been a little surprised by the interest in me, not just from Fulham but other sources as well."
Hodgson promised he will use his lifetime of contacts when he spends a £15million war chest in the January transfer window, and added: "I will have to move quickly."
