We all want reliable, resilient healthcare: a safe patient journey. Healthcare practitioners want this too; like us, they want to invest in long-term strategy, providing healthcare that supports preventative measures and affords to prepare for our future.
Investment of this kind is cost-effective too. Getting it right the first time reduces waste, avoids compromise and promotes safety.
At Bluekit Medical we want everybody to get on board with this idea. With a comprehensive range of medical and surgical procedure packs, drape packs and consumables in the hands of healthcare providers, our products are designed to embed a culture of reliable and resilient healthcare delivery.
In the US today, emphasis is also shifting to prevention. Part of this challenge is proven to depend on the standardization and harmonization of products and practices.
Exporting medical devices to the US presents an array of divergent regulatory requirements, demanding careful navigation to achieve confident compliance. Bluekit products are exposed to FDA approval, increased risk of product liability due to US labeling/ packaging guidelines, and with this, greater costs.
When the standardization and harmonization of regulatory frameworks and product classifications can directly assist in the effective provision of essential goods, it's only fitting that we find increasingly better methods of denomination, encouraging global interaction and supplementing local knowledge with cohesive systems.
The healthcare demands of the US are much like our own; with similar ambitions we learn from each other and drive forward innovation in life sciences. The US market presents a fantastic opportunity for Bluekit Medical: we value policy that supports best practice and encourages opportunity.

Paul's Attempt To Solve The Authority And Confrontation Problem In Cross Cu
Contributed by Paul Fritz on Aug 21, 2001 (message contributor)
Summary: PAUL'S ATTEMPT TO SOLVE THE AUTHORITY AND CONFRONTATION PROBLEM IN CROSS CULTURAL MINISTRIES
Introduction - Mr. Jones, was a missionary who became known for his sensitivity to the context, customs, and culture of the people. In fact some people wondered if he was hypocritical in being quite flexible with one congregation while being quite formalistic with another. Yet one day he wrote a letter that stirred up a terrific debate in the church. There would be no doubt any longer that this missionary was standing firm on his position, but where did he get his authority? His firmness, which revealed a solid resolution to root out pretentiousness in the church, evidenced a supernatural confidence in the truth. Eventually, this ability to distinguish primary from secondary problems would characterize his ministry, teaching, and writing. His stinging rebuke of several prominent church elders was necessary because of his teachings about the body of Christ. The stern attitude taken by Mr. Jones was proof that he would not allow his position, authority, or role diminished. His harsh judging tone in the letter made it sound that he was pointing the finger at particular people who had allowed this controversy to fester for too long. He would have no more part in any compromises with the truth as he believed he had received it from Christ. He would not cater to any hedging or double talk about the relativity of cultural practices on this issue. He was willing to take great criticism for his position in order to defend the truth.
Today we might consider such a missionary as being harsh, legalistic, and even too rigid to successfully work as a cross-cultural contextualizer. We may assume that he was simply trying to throw his weight around to show the new church just who was in charge. We may even assume that this missionary was out to prove a point of his own cultural superiority. In fact, some of us may even go so far as to say this missionary had a problem with his own ego. Perhaps, this missionary needed to realize that he was simply trying to cover up his human weaknesses in his failure to appreciate how the Holy Spirit was moving in another culture. Could it be that this missionary was simply to indignant over the attacks that others had made about his ministry approaches? Maybe this missionary simply did not understand the role of a cross-cultural contextualizer?
While these ideas may appear valid, let us understand that this missionary was going through a similar experience that the apostle Paul faced when writing a vigorous apologetic to the Galatians for the essential truth that people are justified solely through faith in Jesus Christ - nothing more and nothing less. He refused to allow the gospel be eroded by the hypocritical actions of the likes of Peter and Barnabas. He wanted to make it clear from the outset of the New Testament church that a man is sanctified not by legalistic works, but the obedience that results from one's belief in Christ. He wanted everyone to know that through the works of law no man could be justified, for we have received the Spirit by faith. He even resorted to using such powerful language as, "You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? ... Did you receive the Spirit by observing the law, or by believing what you heard? Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort? Does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you because you observe the law, or because you believe what you heard?" This is a vitriolic language that confronted some of the most well known Christians of the day with harsh rebukes - publically! Paul wanted it to be known that Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. He insisted that to go back to living by the law is to make oneself a slave to it - "How is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable principles? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again? I fear for you, that somehow I have wasted my efforts on you?... Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth?" (Gal. 4:8-16) Strong but necessary words for the precedent setting cross-cultural contextualization missionary!
Where did Paul get his authority for his harsh, but necessary contextualized confrontations? Paul has a way of showing contextualizers how to deal with problems in a firm, but open way.
Even words of self-defense at times are hurled at his critics as he staunchly defends his personage for the sake of the truth of the gospel. Whenever he felt the dignity of the scriptures were at stake, he stood firmly to his authoritative source - Christ and his apostleship. Often his opponents would insist that if Paul really were an apostle he would not have to endure the humiliations of beatings, death threats, and imprisonments. He reversed the tables and used this argument against his critics. He insisted that his marks of suffering were proof of his identification with Christ and His ministry. He writes to the Galatians, "Let not one give me any more trouble, because I bear on my body the scars to show that I am a slave of Jesus Christ." (Gal. 6:17)

Trying to build more trust with city residents, Boston police will take the unusual step today of sharing with community leaders the preliminary findings of a department's investigation into Sunday's fatal police shooting of a 40-year-old man, says the Boston Globe. Neighbors have offered accounts of the encounter that conflict sharply with the police version. Neighbors said the man was unarmed, but police said he pointed a .40-caliber handgun at two officers who had pulled him over for a traffic violation. The gun was recovered at the scene, police said.
With Police Commissioner Kathleen O'Toole's promising to make the department transparent to the community, an official will disclose the report at a local anticrime meeting. The dead man was released from state prison last year and was supposed to be living at a residential substance abuse treatment center between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. curfew. He was in violation of the curfew rule when stopped by police at around 3:30 a.m.

Extracted text about Haiti follows.
Haitian criminal gangs are engaged in international drug trafficking and other criminal and fraudulent activity. While Haiti itself is not a major financial center, regional narcotics and money laundering enterprises utilize Haitian couriers, primarily via maritime routes. Much of the drug trafficking in Haiti, as well as the related money laundering, is connected to the United States. Important legislation was adopted over the past several years, in particular anti-corruption and AML laws, but the weakness of the Haitian judicial system leaves the country vulnerable to corruption and money laundering.
On June 8, 2016, the CFATF issued a public statement asking its members to consider the risks arising from the deficiencies in Haiti's AML/CFT regime. The statement follows CFATF's acknowledgement that, although Haiti had made improvements in non-legislative areas, it had not made sufficient progress in fulfilling its action plan to address its serious AML deficiencies including legislative reforms. On November 9, 2016, the CFATF reaffirmed its stance, although noting Haiti's recent progress and efforts to introduce new legislation, including a new law designed to grant administrative autonomy to the Central Financial Intelligence Information Unit (UCREF), Haiti's FIU.
Most of the identified money laundering schemes involve significant amounts of U.S. currency held in financial institutions outside of Haiti or non-financial entities in Haiti, such as restaurants and other small businesses. Foreign currencies represent 63 percent of Haiti's bank deposits as of October 2016. A great majority of property confiscations to date have involved significant drug traffickers convicted in the United States.Illicit proceeds are also generated from corruption, embezzlement of government funds, smuggling, counterfeiting, kidnappings for ransom, illegal emigration and associated activities, and tax fraud.
Haiti has seven operational FTZs. There are also 157 licensed casinos and many other unlicensed casinos. Online gaming is illegal.
The AML legislation passed in 2013 was further strengthened by amendments in 2016. In 2014, the Executive signed a long-delayed anti-corruption bill. Banks and financial companies, wire transfer agencies, credit unions, insurance companies, cooperatives, casinos, lawyers, accountants, notaries, and real estate agents must comply with KYC rules and report suspicious transactions to the UCREF.
Haiti is a member of the CFATF, a FATF-style regional body. Its most recent mutual evaluation can be found at: https://www.cfatf-gafic.or
g/index.php/member-countries/d -m/haiti
The weakness of the Haitian judicial system and prosecutorial mechanisms as well as judges' and prosecutors' lack of knowledge of the recently adopted legislative amendments continue to leave the country vulnerable to corruption and money laundering. Haiti is not a member of the Egmont Group, but is currently applying for membership.
The government remains hampered by ineffective and outdated criminal codes and criminal procedural codes, and by the inability or unwillingness of judges and courts to address cases referred for prosecution. Draft criminal codes and criminal procedural codes that would address these deficiencies are expected to be considered by parliament over the next few months.
The government should continue to devote resources to building an effective AML regime, to include continued support to units charged with investigating financial crimes and the development of an information technology system. The 2013 AML/CFT law and its 2016 amendments, despite strengthening the regulatory framework to combat financial crimes, undermine the independence and effectiveness of Haiti's FIU.
Haiti also should take steps to establish a program to identify and report the cross-border movement of currency and financial instruments. Casinos and other forms of gaming should be better regulated and monitored. The Government of Haiti should take steps to combat pervasive corruption at all levels of Haitian government and commerce.
The Government of Haiti continues to take steps, such as training staff and coordinating with the nation's banks, to implement a better AML regime. In September 2016, the National Assembly added missing elements to the 2013 AML/CFT law to bring it up to international standards, although deficiencies still remain. In order for Haiti to fully comply, however, the criminal code will have to be updated.
After years of delay, passage of the 2014 anti-corruption law constituted a positive step to try to address public corruption, but implementation issues remain. Frequent changes in leadership, fear of reprisal at the working level, rumored intervention from the Executive, and a lack of judicial follow-through (prosecutions) make implementation particularly difficult. Frequent changes in the judiciary also make it difficult for cases to be followed by prosecutors.
The UCREF has continued to build its internal capabilities and to do effective casework. The UCREF forwarded six cases to the judiciary in 2016. Continued issues in the judicial sector mean the UCREF's progress is not yet reflected in conviction rates. Once a case is received, an investigating judge has two months from the arrest date to compile evidence, but there is no limit to the timeframe to schedule court dates, communicate with investigating agencies and prosecutors, and track financial data. There were no convictions or prosecutions for money laundering in 2016.

love this scale. It is amazing what technology can do today. It measures body fat and weight more accurately that I have ever seen, including when I go to my doctor. And you can personalize it by your age, sex, and goals. Wish it wasn't quite so expensive, but it works just as well and I am glad that I bought it.

Comments about Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale:
In an effort to get more fit, I purchased this Tanita body fat monitor bathroom scale instead of a standard bathroom scale in addition to changing other aspects of my lifestyle. I was already eating well and exercising more, but I needed a way to monitor my weight. The Tanita body fat monitor bathroom scale was great for doing that as well as the added extra of monitoring body fat percentage. I was in mind to do things very precisely and carefully as I got into the routine of getting fit, and I found this extra feature worked perfectly for what I planned to accomplish.
The Tanita body fat monitor bathroom scale is very simple to use. It only has a few buttons, but with it one can program it to store profiles for the people who use it. It stores the person's height and age in order to more accurately determine their body fat percentage. You only simply have to press your profile button and hop on the scale to have it measure you accurately. One drawback about body fat percentage is that it is best measured first thing in the morning after waking up. Hydration can be a huge factor in how body fat percentage is calculated, but once one gets into the routine of measuring at a specific time, the results are remarkably accurate.
Comments about Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale:
I had just enrolled into a fitness club and decided to take up weight lifting quite seriously, my aim was to shed about twenty pounds of fat and replace it with muscle mass. So when i started working out, i had everything ready, from nutrition to a great work routine, but the problem that i faced was i was not loosing much weight, its only after the trainer told me about the body fat index and how that affected your weight i realized i needed one of those scales at home for accurate display of my body mass index. So i went online and read some real nice review about this particular piece and decided to purchase it. Its a sleek scale, i didn't know scales could look this cool as my previous one was a regular non digital archaic looking thing. This scale quite accurately measured my regular weight, to the exact gram as in my doctors office. The fat monitor is really good, its not as accurate as the super expensive professional ones, but serves the purpose of telling you on wether you're wasting your time doing the right exercises or not., by showing a steady decrease/increase. Happy with the purchase, would recommend this to my friends.
Comments about Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale:
when I was pregnant with my son I gained seventy pounds, and after I had him I was desperate to lose the weight. I started to go to the gym, but my scale was never really accurate, and I never felt like I was making progress. then I got this scale, and it told me how fat I was percentage wise, and how much I weighed exactly. even if I lost .2 pounds it would tell me and that made me feel like I was doing something at the gym. i continued to make progress and lost all of the weight within seven months. i attribute much of that to seeing my progress on the tanita scale. it was pricey, but worth it. i really enjoyed seeing my body fat percentage go down too. as depressing as it was when I first got on it, it got better as time went on. it also comes in handy for weighing boxes for the post office. I sell a lot of things online, and ship from home, so I need a very accurate scale, and this does the job!
Comments about Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale:
My husband and I registered for the **Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale **at Bed Bath and Beyond for our wedding. It is an expensive scale but is one of the least expensive body fat monitor scales. For the purchase price, it's a pretty satisfying scale. It give very accurate weights - to the tenth of a pound. It gives body fat percentage and water composition percentage. The accuracy of those are a little more dubious, however I think this is true for all fat monitor scales - they just aren't as accurate as the good, old fashioned caliper test. It stores information for 2 people - including height and age. It was pretty easy to set, but it's not so smart that it adds a year to your age as you get older. And for the life of me I can't figure out how to reset it (which probably says more about me than the scale). It can also be set to report weight in kg and st.
I would recommend the **Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale.**
Comments about Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale:
This scale provides you with your weight, % body fat, and % water weight. It tells you if your body weight percentage is healthy for your sex, age, and weight. I would recommend this scale to others. It's very easy to use. You can set it up for 2 regular users of the scale and it also has a guest setting.
Comments about Tanita Body Fat Monitor Bathroom Scale:
The **Tanita Body Fat Monitor Scale BF-558 **is an amazingly accurate digital scale that also measures body fat for up to four separate people.
This scale can be personalized with a person's gender, height, age, and activity level. The scale then adjusts how many calories the user needs to maintain his or her weight and measures body fat.
Four people can use this scale - each with their own profiles. There are four buttons on the end of the scale and a toe tap will bring up your personal profile.
Step on the scale barefooted (You need bare feet for the body fat part of the scale to work) and wait about 10 seconds. Your weight to the closest tenth of a pound, body fat percentage, and how much you lost or gained since your last weigh in will all be displayed. Then a calorie amount will display. That amount is how much you can eat based on your activity level to maintain. If you want to lose, you would scale back. If you want to gain, you would add calories.
Also, when your body fat is displayed, a little light will point to low, regular, or high showing where you land as far as your body fat to lean muscle mass ratio.
**My Use**
I have owned the **Tanita Body Fat Monitor Scale BF-558** for several years. It is battery operated and the battery lasts for at least a year with daily use. The scale is very simple to set up and comes with a very well written instruction booklet.
You just touch your button with your toe and step on the scale. Within several seconds. your weight and body fat are displayed. Then your calorie intake and the amount of loss or gain are displayed.
This scale is AMAZINGLY accurate. I have been weighed at the doctor's office and came home and stepped on the scale and gotten nearly exact results (within a few tenths of a pound). I have stepped on the scale several times in a row and the thing would not waiver even if I wanted it to go down a bit. As far as body fat monitoring, it is also accurate. I had mine taken at my doctor's and the scale was within a seven tenths of a percent of what my doctor reported.
I like that the scale tells me where on the high/low/normal scale my body fat is because I really don't know what mine should be.
Taking into account your gender, age, height, and activity level, it can give you the accurate amount of calories you should eat to maintain. From there you can adjust the amount of calories you take in to lose or gain weight if you are trying to do so.
My sons, husband, and I all use this scale and we have personalized it for each of us. Here's a cool thing. If people are self conscious about their weight or body fat, another user cannot get that info. If I use, say. my younger son's settings, I get an error message because it is obvious I am not the person who programmed the settings.
The scale can be used on a hard surface or on a carpet. The numbers are digital, large, and easy to read from a standing position.
This scale is the best I ever had or used and, if anything should happen to it, I will not hesitate to buy another similar Tanita scale.
If you want to know how much you weigh to the tenth of a pound accurately, the **Tanita Body Fat Monitor Scale BF-558 **is a great choice. Personalized for up to four people, this is truly a family scale that not only gives your weight but also your body fat, how much you have lost or gained, and how many calories you need to maintain your weight.
I adore my scale and would never go back to any other brand. My scale has lasted for years and shows no signs of slowing down. When the time comes to replace it, I will buy a Tanita again.
5 stars for the **Tanita Body Fat Monitor Scale BF-558!**

Your Eastern European trip looks amazing! I'm envious! Istanbul, in particular, is top of my travel list at the momentReplyDelete
I know. I am so excited!Delete
Have fun on your trip with students!ReplyDelete
Thanks!!! I really hope it is an amazing experience.Delete
Ah that Eastern European trip looks amaaaazing, even if you are stuck with a bunch of students. ;)ReplyDelete
Bahaha! I so hope it won't feel that way. We'll just have to wait and see.Delete
Whaat? You are coming to my country?! Great choice of visiting Belogradchik - the rocks are really interesting, Veliko Tarnovo is probably the most beautiful city in Bulgaria, and I am very happy that you are going to visit Sofia as well! Nice!ReplyDelete
I know! I am so excited about this. I am really stoked about the itinerary. I've actually never been to Eastern Europe before!Delete
THIS TRIP MUST HAPPEN. I've never been to eastern europe either [or anywhere other than spain] and I've wanted to see istanbul for at least a decade. the only time I've chaperoned was a field trip to Amish Country... but I think with the 4 of us we can handle it.ReplyDelete
Totally agreed. I introduced the idea to my 8th graders and they were like SIGN ME UP! Amish Country... Easter Europe... same thing.Delete

[deleted post]Thats a good message coming from the authorities. It may save many lives.
Personally, my Moto 360 comes very handy while I drive. I can send quick short messages quite easily. For example, saying "Send a WhatsApp message to wife, I'll be home in 10 minutes" is way more easier than to type it all away - which of course is risky.
Similarly, I have most of my WhatsApp groups on mute so that there are minimum distractions. Navigation is a breeze as well, saying as simple as "ATMs nearby" gets you the ATMs close to you and then you can navigate to that place without even touching your phone. That way, I find the not so popular smart watches way more safer and easier to use.
And I'm from India! I got your joke but this is not the way you react to comments being overly racist? Certainly, I own more gadgets than you and know how to use them.
Peace bro!

I'm sure that everyone knows (especially those who have been there) that starting a business is not an easy task. Since I first decided my major career goal was to start my own business selling handwoven goods, I have learned just that. While I wouldn't say that I have completely failed in opening shop, as I have done several custom orders within the last year, I have passed my goal for opening my official Etsy shop several times. I had planned to open in May earlier this year. When I realized that wasn't happening, my goal shifted to the end of the Summer. Summer ended, Fall began, and my goal changed yet again to be opened in October.
Well, it is now the middle of November and I am still facing last minute hang-ups. I think I just want everything to be perfect before I finally click that button to make my shop live. I have, however, set aside some of my previous ambitions, so I can just get things rolling a little quicker.
My goal now, is to open the shop with a little time left for some last minute Christmas orders to come through. Not that I'm even sure I would sell any scarves before Christmas as there are some 800,000 Etsy shops and I'm sure that initially mine will be lost in the masses, but that's all part of the gamble of opening a business. I know that my shop will not be an instant success, but I hope that some day it will.
I have faith that I can get my Etsy shop open soon, but if not, I just have to keep reminding myself that there is a reason why I am being held up.

Funding of Article Processing Charges (APCs)
Many funding agencies explicitly allow the use of research grants for the payment of Article Processing Charges (APCs) to publish in open access journals. In addition, numerous institutes have created central funds to cover APCs.
Many institutes have established central funds to cover the APCs for open access:
- Co-Action maintains a list of institutional publishing funds.
- SPARC maintains a list of North American universities and university libraries that have created APC funds.
- The Open Access Directory also features a list of institutional funds for open access publishing.
More and more research funders explicitly allow researchers to use their grants for paying APCs for publishing in open access journals:
- Sherpa has a consolidated list of Research funders' open access policies by country.
- In the United Kingdom:
- The Wellcome Trust requires research to be open access and from 1 April 2017 publishers must comply with certain requirements. MDPI has registered as a compliant publisher.
- Authors funded under any of the UK Research Councils (RCUK) can pay for APCs from their block grants for papers submitted for publication after 1 April 2013.
- HEFCE's policy is "that all research arising from HEFCE funding should be as widely and freely accessible as the available channels for dissemination permit".
- In the USA:
- The NIH public access policy aims to ensure "the public has access to the published results of NIH funded research."
- The OSTP policy on Open Access, outlined by Director John P. Holdren, is defined to ensure "results of federally funded scientific research are made available to and useful for the public, industry, and the scientific community. Such results include peer-reviewed publications and digital data [...]"
- In Europe:
- Authors that are funded by the European Commission FP7 program are eligible for reimbursement of the article processing charges. Details can be found in the FP7 model Grant Agreement.
- Switzerland: Researchers receiving Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) funding can cover costs of publication in OA journals via the project budget.
- Further: Open Access publications from research funding under Horizon 2020 will be mandatory, and expected to be effective as of 2014, thus allowing for the results of publicly funded research and innovation to be maximised.
Authors affiliated with an institute participating in our open access program receive discounts on APCs:
The MDPI Institutional Open Access Program (IOAP) provides discounts on the APCs to authors from participating institutes. During submission of an article, the author can select and confirm the affiliation directly in our online system. If a participant provides us with the IP range information of the institute, an automatic pre-selection can be made in the system.
The corresponding or leading authors of a paper must be associated with the listed institutes to benefit of the discount. The institute can decide if the APCs are to be paid centrally (central invoicing), or paid in full by the authors (non-central invoicing).
The full list of existing IOAP participants can be found here.
Open Access initiatives also help authors with publishing costs:
MDPI is proud to participate in the Knowledge Unlatched (KU) initiative, which covers Article Processing Charges (APCs) for papers in Humanities and Social Sciences titles through a crowd-funding mechanism.
As of 2018, APCs for some articles published in the following MDPI journals are covered via the KU funding mechanism:
- Religions
- Econometrics
- Games
- Laws
- Social Sciences
- Humanities
- Risks
- Societies
- International Journal of Financial Studies
This is a pilot program experimenting ways to support authors to submit and publish for free in open access.

7D, 500mm f4, ISO200
Friday, November 5, 2010
The family
Early Friday morning I once again had the pleasure of my second family. Mother appeared, as usual, from the left. The mini boars arrived too from the left, but further off down the clearing. This time of course I had 500mm + to play with (and test). The sun came out, was quite early so no bad thing, and testing could at last commence with ISO200 rather than taking pictures of noise. I had fun for a few minutes until mother retreated to the right looking for food.

Great Barrier Island Environmental News
Great Barrier Island
of the Environment Report 2010
Great Barrier Island is situated approximately 100 kilometres off the
north-eastern coast of Auckland, New Zealand. It is the fourth largest
island in NZ at 28,000 hectares and has a small population of
approximately 800-1000. Two thirds of the island is managed as part of
the Department of Conservation estate who ensure protection of the
unique geography and actively protect three rare and endangered species;
the Chevron Skink, Pateke (brown teal duck)
and the Black Petrel. With large areas of regenerating forest, the
island is considered a stronghold for the North Island Kaka and the
native wood pigeon, Kereru. The island has remained free of many of the
introduced pests that have plagued mainland NZ forests. There are no
deer, ferrets, stoats, possums, hedgehogs, or feral goats, making the
island unique ecologically and, with such a reduced suite of pests, a
strong contender for warranting a pest free status.

Roma sporting director Monchi is willing to consider offers for Alisson, but revealed the club is yet to receive a bid for the goalkeeper.
Brazil international Alisson has been linked with the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Real Madrid after shining for Roma in their run to the Champions League semi-finals.
But despite speculation he could be tempted away from the Italian capital, Monchi says Alisson is staying put as things stand.
"He has the same chance of staying as all the other players we have not received any offers for," Monchi told reporters.
"If one arrives, we will study it and make a decision. We are working out when he will return to training after his post-World Cup holiday; ready to do even better than he did last season for us."

Roma have had a busy transfer window, making 10 signings including Ivan Marcano, Justin Kluivert and Javier Pastore.
But the Serie A side have been linked with further arrivals, Ajax's Morocco international Hakim Ziyech and Sassuolo forward Domenico Berardi among their reported targets.
"As I said on Saturday, we are always watching the transfer market," Monchi added. "Roma is a big club, and big clubs always need to have an eye on the market up until it closes.
"We still have 40 days, so talking about Ziyech or Berardi is reductive. We are following a lot of situations. We have started the pre-season. When you are building a side you always think you are doing well, but this is the time to understand how you can continue to improve.
"Hard work is always the most important thing, I don't know any other way to achieve success. We have chosen a risky strategy: to build the squad as quickly as possible, to get down to work immediately.
"There is a gap we need to overcome to those who finished ahead of us, we have to work to close it as quickly as we can."

Newcomers - is it any good?
A Newcomer recently wrote this testimonial about us (thanks Logan): "Being a gay man thinking of coming out, I joined Newcomers hoping to hear about the stories of others and how they found the whole coming out process. I have always been able to relate, in some way, to the stories shared by other members of the group and have been amazed by how much some members have gone through – it really puts my own reservations about coming out into perspective. I also like the informal and 'no drama' nature of the meetings as well as the support and honest advice the group provides. I have been going to Newcomers for about three months now and would recommend it to anyone who is keen to give it a go." The next Newcomers meeting is Tuesday 8th of May and we meet every second Tuesday (from 6pm-7.30pm). Email or phone helpline if you'd like more information.

The Dagong Global Credit Rating Group ("Dagong") issued the "2018 global insurance credit outlook" on January 29, predicting the trend of global insurance credit risks under the influence of stable recovery of global economy and tightened monetary policy expectation.
With the slow recovery of the global economy and withdrawal of the major developed economies from loose monetary policy, the global insurance underwriting demand and investment returns are expected to rise accordingly. Tighter financial regulations will reduce the liquidity risk of insurance companies and ensure prudent operation, mitigating the global insurance credit risk. However, under the influence of long-term ultra-low interest rate and low growth macro-environment, underwriting and investment have accumulated risks and have to be adjusted for risk control in the future; there are potential risks in global insurance industry.
In 2018, the global insurance industry has the following key trends:
I. In 2018, the recovery of the global economy and the expected tightening of monetary policy will improve the profitability of insurance industry. However, the accumulated credit risks still exist.
Global economy is growing slowly, industry demand increasing, positive expectations of monetary policy in major developed countries, and increase in investment returns will improve the profitability of the insurance industry in 2018. The expected growth rates are 3% and 4% for global life and non-life premiums respectively. The credit risk will be mitigated. The emerging market led by China, will continue to be the main drive for the growth of the non-life insurance industry. For life insurance, tighter financial regulations will continue to lower the liquidity, but the continuous increase of overall investment risk preference is still a potential risk factor in the insurance industry due to the continuous ultra-low interest rate in recent years. The credit quality tend to decrease.
II.The United States will continue interest rate hike. However, slow economic recovery and rising claims in the U.S. insurance industry cause severe pressure on underwriting capacity. Overall profitability will be challenged.
In 2018, the economic recovery in the US, the normalized monetary policy and the resultant rise of long-term government bond yields will stimulate insurance demand and improve investment returns of non-life insurance industry. However, due to competition in the industry, insurance rate increase is limited, and inflation pushes up compensation cost, restricting underwriting profit. And natural disasters also cause underwriting profit fluctuation, which is the biggest threat to the stability of overall profitability. Hence, in 2018, the overall profitability of the US non-life insurance industry will face downward pressure. The industry credit risk remains high.
III.Weak economic fundamentals and ultra-low interest rates have led to a rise of preference for high investment returns in Japan's life insurance industry, raising its portfolio risk and thus its credit risk.
In 2018, the Bank of Japan will maintain the loose monetary policy in order to continue stimulating the weak economy, which will promote life insurers in Japan to continue reducing their holdings of national debt and increasing the holding of foreign portfolio investment. Portfolio risks are thus heightened. In addition, as the inconsistency between Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan monetary policy becomes glaring, and USD/JPN exchange rate is highly correlated to the US and Japan's long-term bond spreads, USD/JPN exchange rate is expected to continue to strengthen in the short term. Currency exposure of investment portfolio will become larger, which is not conducive to credit risk mitigation.
IV.Under the influence of long-term low interest rate environment and strict supervision, the profitability of European insurance industry continues to be under pressure, and the preference for life insurance investment continues to rise.
Due to ultra-low interest rate and tighter financial regulations, non-life insurance returns increase slowly, considering economic growth and decline of premium rate fall. But profitability of life insurance industry is still under pressure. To increase profits, the European insurance company will continue to raise the investment risk to increase investment returns. These will increase insurance industry future risks and decrease its credit quality.
V. Due to the tightening of regulation policies, the growth rate of insurance premiums in China is slowing down, challenging short-term liquidity. But the long-term credit risk is still under control.
In 2018, China's economy will deleverage in a moderate way under the guidance of steady supply-side reform as well as moderate and neutral monetary policy. In addition, economic growth is expected to remain stable, and per capita disposable income is expected to increase, which leads to insurance demand premiums increase, With the tightening of supervision policy, life insurers might face liquidity risks in the short term, but they will develop steadily in the long run.

Do I Need Help?
Honesty is the first order of business as denial is a common barrier in the recognition of problems and the act of seeking help us evaluate our circumstances. People who are trained in "geriatric" mental health are prepared to help older adults make evaluations and plans based on the knowledge of what is good for older bodies, older minds and older adult issues in general. It is perfectly appropriate to seek the opinion of a professional who specializes in geriatrics when considering any type of care. Just as young children see pediatricians, older adults benefit from geriatricians.
How do you know if you need help? When you are older, you don't want to let too many things go unchecked as your body's systems are more vulnerable to the negative effects of compounded problems. If you feel or act differently, notice physical symptoms that are not normal for you or experience trouble in areas that were not previously problematic, it's probably time to get things, checked out.
Symptoms of mental health problems include:
- Withdrawn behavior
- Excessive worry or nervousness
- Guilt and remorse
- Low self-esteem, no confidence
- Excessive doubt, hopelessness and negativity
- Mood swings
- Heavy suspicion, mistrust of loved one
- Disturbance in sleep and/or appetite
- Poor memory and concentration, confusion, forgetfulness, difficulty making decisions
- Neglect of self-care
- Persistent sad, anxious or "empty" mood
- Loss of interest in pleasurable hobbies and activities once enjoyed
- Decreased energy, fatigue, being "slowed down"
- Restlessness, irritability
- Persistent and unexplained physical symptoms that do not respond to treatment such as digestive disorders and unexplained pain
- Increased talking, racing thoughts
- Inappropriate social behavior
- Delusions or hallucinations (believing things that are not true, seeing or hearing things that are not there)
- Increasing inability to cope with problems and responsibility
- Denial of obvious problems
- Over use of alcohol, medications and drugs
- Suicidal thoughts (Must get immediate attention)
Getting help is the next important step. There are many options for assessment and treatment.
