Now I'm trying to create an international incident.
My country is saved YOOIINK!!! I took another catacomb set!!! Yahooo! (and some city builder battlements, which I like more than the castles ones).
Yeah, about the MBS (Medieval Building Set, resin, classic), those were fantastic as well... I have one set of each type, and I would love to get more, since I don't dig the CBS. They are the only resin sets that remain in my pending purchases list other than new KS stuff. Wish so hard that they were restocked too... fingers crossed! (but I don't have much faith since the CBS seems to have replaced them for good).

Funtions detials:
- Porsche PIWIS 2 system allows you to experience the global and individual diagnostics of all old and newest Porsche vehicles with a low-end diagnostics, as you only know from the manufacturer's systems. The system works with the Porsche Piwis 2 software and as such is an easy-to-learn system. In the menu of the Porsche Piwis 2 system you can see a simple but comfortable and easy-to-understand interface divided into segments: Diagnostics • Circuit diagram • Troubleshooting • Information • Settings • Tools. If you want to diagnose a Porsche vehicle, it is only sufficient to connect the supplied interface and to select one of the menus. The PIWIS 2 diagnostics system is already in progress and a diagnosis of the complete vehicle is carried out with a diagnostic depth as is only known from manufacturer systems.
- If an error is found, you have a further function, such as The circuit diagram here schematically illustrates the relationships of individual modules, but also pin assignments as well as other connected modules, etc. The system can be used in the menu error search search and perform single tests, but also provides other comprehensive information depending on which menu you choose. Certainly, the system allows you to use all other functions and basic functions as are reserved for manufacturers only (not universal diagnostic systems). Thus, e.g. Are actuator testing, parameterization, adaptation as well as single test, monitoring, signal monitoring and many other functions. The Porsche PIWIS 2 as a manufacturer's system is not comparable to universal diagnostic systems or even so-called Porsche cable interfaces, it is not only a new Porsche diagnostic system but rather a complete Porsche test and information center with a packed load of information and functions, certainly one of the reasons when you Porsche customers as a freestanding workshop you will soon notice the ever more Porsche cars the fewer functions are possible with all the universal diagnostic systems available on the market, which is one of the decisive points why this system was designed and added for purely professional applications in workshops becomes.
- The piwis tester ii work with the old and latest porsche car. It is equiped with the panasonic laptop and original software for the test. Porsche piwis tester ii can help you diagnose and programme the most new and old kind of porsche cars.For example: 911(997), Boxster/ Cayman,(987), Cayenne up to MY 2010, Cayenne from MY 2011 and Panamera. The new Panamera can only be diagnosed by using this Porsche PIWIS Tester-II. Based on current project planning, all earlier vehicle models will gradually be changed over to the new PIWIS Tester-II by the end of 2010. PIWIS Tester-I must be used for older models in the Porsche workshop until end of 2010. Support for PIWIS Tester-I will no longer be available once the earlier diagnostic programs have been transferred to PIWIS Tester-II. When the PIWIS Tester-II is distributed, it will contain one basic piece of software. This is necessary in order to start and configure the tester.

I'm sure that you'll agree with me, if I'll say, that different eras had their popular professions. I mean those professions, which children of those times wanted to have! For example, fifty years ago almost every 8-year boy dreamed of becoming an astronaut or a firefighter, and girls wanted to become a teacher or an actress. In the Middle Ages the prospect of becoming a knight was the most seductive for the boys of those times, and girls were dreaming only about good husband, but what do we…Continue

Buckle in for some Cover Snark!
Amanda: Neither party looks thrilled about this sextuplet surprise.
Carrie: Every single thing about this cover hurts me.
Tara: I refuse to believe anyone pregnant with sextuplets would have the energy to put on that much makeup. I couldn't be bothered when I was pregnant and I had singletons.
Maya: She's got a classic who farted face on and I guess there are a lot of people to choose from?
Elyse: To be fair, I'd be pretty upset about surprise sextuplets too.
Shana: I'm concerned about the green stuff smushed between them. Is it a boutonnière made of larvae?
Amanda: That is a long torso.
Carrie: It is. Is he a shapeshifter in mid-shift? Is he Plastic Man? Otherwise I sure love that shade of purple. It's just one elongated torso away from Cover Awe.
Sarah: His navel is missing. Right? They photoshopped out his belly button?
Omg is he a Regency Alien??!!
Amanda: Kyle XY, Historical Edition.
Tara: I want to know how far down those abs go. Like, is it just abs all the way down?
Sneezy: Oh god, it's all clear now! He's a human centipede! Run girl, RUN!!!
Elyse: WHY
Sarah: Knees?
Amanda: She HAS to be sitting on something because there's no way she can sustain that position.
Elyse: That would have to be a really tiny stool and she ain't got pants on.
Sarah: She has a tail. It is prehensile. She is going to lovingly strangle him in a moment, maybe.
Carrie: There are 28 limbs in this picture!
Tara: She looks like she's mid climb. But where to?
Maya: It's a variation of that moment in Chewing Gum when Tracey sits on Conner's face while still being fully dressed!
Claudia: Are they getting ready to play chicken fight? If so, where's the pool?

1.3 The Commonwealth
The death of Sigismund-August Jagiełło (1520-1572) brought an end to the dynasty of the Jagiełłons. Sigismund-August was a complete Renaissance ruler, tolerant, learned, humanistic, raised in Poland's Golden Century. Regrettably his various marriages remained without issue. To secure order after his death, he assembled the Lithuanian and Polish magnates in Lublin in December 1568 for a Sejm, a convention of the nobility. His intention was to bring Poland and Lithuania even closer together so as better to resist the ambition and aggression of Moscow. The Poles and the Grand Duchy became united in one commonwealth, the Rzeczpospolita, with one law, one elected king, one coinage and one Sejm, out of which the representatives who would lead the state were to be chosen. In exchange the Lithuanians retained their own laws, government and army, and the magnates their own titles.1 On 1 July 1569 the unification was sealed. Ivan IV the Terrible then issued a warning to the new state by personally eradicating the inhabitants of Novgorod in five weeks because he feared that they might choose the side of Poland. De Rzeczpospolita continued to function after the death of Sigismund-August (1572). Far-reaching laws, including ones guaranteeing religious tolerance, were embedded in the third Lithuanian Statute (1588). This development was all the more remarkable in a Europe which was torn by bloody wars of religion. The Orthodox Christians continued to struggle with their loyalty, but the issue was obedience to Rome or Kiev, never to Moscow.
After the death of Sigismund-August, the magnates assembled in Warsaw to elect a new duke-king with unanimity. Such an election unheard off in the rest of Europe, and any disorganized and noisy gathering was (and is) called 'a Polish convention'. After Henri of Valois (ruled 1573-1574) and Istvan Batory (ruled 1576-1586), who was able to thwart the Muscovite ambitions for 120 years in 1581-82 by conquering Livonia, three more Vasa-kings ruled. As leaders of defeated Swedish Catholics, they involved the Union in wars with the new Swedish Protestant kings.2
Kiev and the eastern Ukraine were lost to revolts of nobles on the fringes of the empire. Nor was Jan Sobieski (ruled 1673-1696) [i] able to contain the internal strife of the Lithuanian magnates. The Saxon kings after Sobieski initiated the final decline of the Rzeczpospolita. August II the Strong (ruled 1697-1733) and August III (ruled 1733-1763) [i] did little more than keep their heads above water by closing detrimental agreements for Poland-Lithuania with Moscow, involving the Grand Duchy in disastrous conflicts and wars. Because the Sejm was paralyzed by the requirement of unanimity of votes, it became impossible to rule. Several noble families operated to their own satisfaction within this vacuum so that Poland-Lithuania could become a plaything of rulers who had taken a fancy to the Kingdom-Grand Duchy. Stanisław August Poniatowski (ruled 1764-1795), a former lover of Catherine the Great of Russia and put on the throne by her, became the last of the grand duke-kings.
Davies 2011, pp. 274-278.
The successive Polish kings were Henri de Valois (ruled 1573-1574), Istvan Batory (ruled 1576-1586). Sigismund III Vasa (1587-1632), Ladislas IV Vasa (ruled 1632-1648) and Johann Casimir Vasa (ruled 1648-1668).

Doctrine to Establish Rules
of Engagement Against Cyber Attacks
By Donna Miles,
American Forces Press Service.
Baltimore, Maryland -- (AFPS)
-- October 20, 2011 New doctrine under review by the Joint Staff will lay out
rules of engagement against an attack in cyberspace, the commander of U.S. Cyber
Command said today.
The doctrine, once adopted, will help to define conditions in which the military
can go on the offensive against cyber threats and what specific actions it can
take, Army Gen. Keith B. Alexander told reporters at an International Systems
Security Association conference here.
It will support the Defense Departments strategy for operating in cyberspace,
released in July, and President Barack Obamas international cyberspace strategy,
the general added.
Once the doctrine is approved, Cyber Command will put out guidance to its cyber
warriors spelling out, Here is how we operate in cyberspace, and tailor its
training accordingly, Alexander said. In the meantime, the laws of land warfare
and law of armed conflict apply to cyberspace, he said. The challenge, he
explained, is how to translate laws that govern physical space to cyberspace
now a fifth domain of conflict.
That is what the Defense Department and others are working right now: to come
up with the standing rules of engagement and those different parts, he said.
Among issues the Defense Department is considering, Alexander said, is what
constitutes a war in cyberspace.
The United States also must determine what represents a reasonable and
proportional response to a cyber attack, he said. The law of armed conflict
authorizes a reasonable, proportional defense against a physical attack from
another country. Extending that logic to cyberspace, Alexander said, it remains
unclear if it includes authority to shut down a computer network, even if its
been taken over by a malicious cyber attacker intent on destruction.
If it does, also left unanswered so far is who would have that authority: the
FBI, the National Security Agency, the military, the Internet service provider
or another entity.
That is something policymakers are going to have to tell us: Here is what you
are authorized to do, Alexander said.
The way doctrine, laws, policy and standing rules of engagement address these
and other issues will shape how the military trains its cyber warriors, the
general said. Current training focuses predominantly on ways to secure DOD
networks, Alexander said, but he added that he expects that training to broaden
to include more full-spectrum operations against threats.
Cyber Command will train our force to the standard and ensure that we do it
exactly right, he said.
Alexander emphasized the importance of that capability against a growing array
of ever-more-dangerous cyber threats.
I think that nation states, non-nation state actors and hacker groups are
creating tools that are increasingly more persistent and threatening, and we
have to be ready for that, he said. So the security frameworks we are putting
in place are forward-looking, based on what we are seeing.
Army Gen. Keith B. Alexander

text: If you are looking for information on contract beds, then you need to find information about Sealy contract beds. These beds are perfect for any hotel or institution because they allow the owners to customize their orders to more closely match the desires of the customers. If your customers prefer a certain kind of bed or if your management has a certain idea of what they want, then you can order that specific type rather than the pre-set contract beds of many other brands. Sealy contract beds are never one size fits all. The manufacturer maintains the flexibility to customize orders to any account, so you can choose the details of your order rather than relying on the manufacturer's set average to make the choice for you. This is a wonderful benefit for companies that plan to order a large number of beds, since you will be ordering your own special bed rather than the same beds that your competition just bought. One size fits all is perfect for scarves, but when it comes to something as personal as the way that you sleep, Sealy contract beds and their customizing options can help you give your customers exactly what they are looking for.

Timing is everything in GMAT. Computer Adaptive Tests (CATs) have additional constraints apart from limited time: You cannot return to previous questions, you can't skip a question and you are penalized more for unanswered questions than for wrong answers.
For many GMAT test takers, the ticking clock on the top right corner of the screen is a constant source of worry. "How much time should I spend on this question?". "Should I guess and move on?". These questions will force even the coolest test takers to make irrational decisions.
Don't let stress over the clock have a negative impact on your confidence or your GMAT score! You do not want the time crunch to take focus away from answering the questions correctly.
Consistently practicing time management skills will allow you to become more comfortable with this aspect of the test and refocus your energy on reasoning skills necessary to pick the correct answer choice.
1) 6 Minutes vs 8 Minutes: Spend around 6 minutes on a reading comprehension passage with 3 questions, and around 8 minutes on a passage with 4 questions.
2) 2 Minutes Quick Read: In 2-3 minutes you need to read the passage carefully, absorb the information, and take notes.
3) Force yourself to move on to the questions: During your GMAT Prep, put yourself on the clock. Start getting used to reading a passage in 2 minutes (if the passage is between 25 and 40 lines) or 3...

Photo courtesy Pickled and Fermented Festival
When I was 3 years old, my mom walked in the kitchen to find my face buried deep in a pickle jar. There weren't actually any pickles inside, but it was filled with the brine — a funky, acidic concoction of vinegar, garlic and pepper. I was, and continue to be, infatuated.
It seems that I am not alone. On Saturday, Oct. 13, the Artisan Pickle Club hosts its third annual Pickled & Fermented Festival at Center of the Universe (COTU) Brewing in Ashland in celebration of jarred, soured, brined, zesty offerings in every shape, size and style.
People either tend to love or hate pickles, and when they love pickles, they tend to really love them. Larkin Garbee and Ashley Ray, founders of the Artisan Pickle Club, are the latter. When the duo met in 2013, they discovered they had one major thing in common: Both were pickle fanatics.
"I've always loved pickles," explains Ray, who shares that she recently received a series of pictures of her 4-year-old niece eating pickles, sharing them with family members and proceeding to drink the juice — my kind of kid.
"Seeing that made me feel like the proudest aunt," she exclaims, laughing.
Garbee and Ray decided to host a secret pickle gathering, just the two of them, at 804RVA, a co-working space Garbee founded, and brought a plethora of pickles to sample and enjoy. Soon after, they decided to share their pickle addiction with others and started hosting public pickle meetings at 804RVA.
"It's like craft beer homebrewing before that was a thing," says Garbee of the Pickle Club.
"Meetings are a small group of pickle nerds," says Garbee, who explains that hunting down craft pickles usually involves a little exploring, since they are typically not found on grocery store shelves next to the Claussens and Vlasics of the world.
By 2016, the Pickled & Fermented Festival was born.
One of the biggest components of the festival is the competition. (Full disclosure: I am on this year's judging panel.) Entry is open to anyone, and competitors range from chefs and restaurateurs to purveyors, farmers and homegrown pickle fanatics.
Competition categories include sweet, savory, dill, bread and butter, kimchi, relish, sauerkraut, drinkables, and a pickled product using COTU beer. The most popular category, with the most entries every year, is dill pickles. For the past two years, Carrot Top Farm has won dill bragging rights.
Garbee says the long-term goal is to see competitors transition from showcasing their products to becoming full-blown vendors, if they aren't already. Matt's Dirty Pickles, a local purveyor from Midlothian, sampled his bacon pickles at the Pickle Club a couple of years ago, and now you can find his products at South of the James Market, Aw Shucks Country Store and other local shops.
The festival hosts 11 chef-led demos, giving attendees the opportunity to learn the ins and outs of cooking with pickled and fermented goods. Area chefs include David Crabtree-Logan and Sariann Lehrer, owners of the Broken Tulip Social Eatery; Jay Metzler from Idle Hands Bakery; Darryl Boyd of Comfort; Keva Miller from Feedshine; Chef Coco; Jawsh Kiddrige from UnMoo, a vegan cheese company; as well as out-of-towners from Lynchburg, Roanoke and Williamsburg.
"It's hard to get chef engagement. … This is a way for them to be involved and share their craft," says Garbee.
The Pickled & Fermented Festival also offers tasting experiences from vendors, live music, a pickle juice drinking competition — my dream, realized — and a pickled gose beer release from COTU.
Don't let preconceived pickle notions hold you back from attending; Garbee says offerings tend to get exotic, ranging from pickled butternut squash to sour paw paw kombucha; spicy relish; sourdough with candied pecans, brown sugar and bourbon; and pickled peanuts.
Larkin Garbee's Top 3 Pickled Products
1. Pickled sunchokes from Carrot Top Farm
Out of Caroline County, Carrot Top Farm began in 2011 and focuses on non-GMO practices. The company is a two-time festival winner with its pickled sunchokes, one of their specialty crops. "I always get excited about what they're producing," says Garbee.
2. Fennel-juniper sauerkraut from Wild Earth Fermentation
Based in Fulton Hill, Wild Earth Fermentation specializes in funky, acidic and gut-friendly offerings without using vinegar, heat or preservatives. Ground fennel and juniper in the sauerkraut are combined with caraway seeds that provide a peppery, earthy balance.
Ninja, the only Richmond-based kombucha, launched in 2015 and has been known get folks hooked from their first sip of the effervescent fermented tea. Popular flavors include lemon-ginger and blackberry-hibiscus.
A pickle tasting passport and general admission to the festival are $10. VIP tickets are $50 and include exclusive tastings, access to a private beverage line, two complimentary beer tokens and private catering with "pickle-inspired" appetizers. Children 18 and under are free.

Speeding Laws in New York
Unfortunately, speeding tickets can lead to serious consequences for drivers and can add points to your driving record. If you are convicted of three (3) speeding tickets received within 18 months, your license will be revoked for a minimum of six months.
The speeding point system includes:
- 3 points for driving 1 to 10 mph over the limit
- 4 points for driving 11 to 20 mph over the limit
- 6 points for driving 21 to 30 mph over the limit
- 8 points for driving 31 to 40 mph over the limit
- 11 points for driving over 40 mph above the limit
What Are the Penalties for Speeding in New York?
There are any number of reasons why people in New York, and elsewhere, may drive in excess of the speed limit. While it may seem minor, speeding on New York roads can result in serious legal issues for motorists, regardless of the reasoning. There are a number of penalties that may be levied on drivers of non-commercial vehicles who are caught exceeding the speed limit, many of which far outweigh a simple slap on the wrist.
Fines are a common consequence for motorists who are ticketed for speeding in New York. Generally, these fines are based on how fast a driver is going in relation to the posted speed limit. According to the SafeNY website, drivers may be fined anywhere between $90 and $150 if they are caught traveling up to 10 mph over the posted speed limit. The fines increase to between $180 and $300 for those drivers who are going between 10 and 30 mph over the speed limit. For motorists who are caught driving in excess of 30 mph over the posted speed limit, the fines they may face can be between $360 and $600. Typically, the fines are doubled for drivers who are found to be speeding in work zones. In addition to fines, points may be added to your record.
Drivers may also face prison time for speeding. As is the case with fines, the duration of potential prison sentences for speeding are also based on how fast motorists are driving. Drivers who are caught traveling up to 10 mph over the posted speed limit may face up to 15 days in prison. Those who are ticketed for traveling 10 mph or more over the limit could be sentenced to prison for up to 30 days.
The types of penalties that New York drivers may face as a result of speeding violations can vary greatly. This post has discussed some of the potential consequences of such offenses, however, the final decision is up to the courts. Therefore, this should be taken only as general information and not considered professional legal advice.

Holographic image formation in photorefractive crystals with use of a complex object wave front is studied both theoretically and experimentally. It is shown that the optimal conditions for holographic recording of a complex image differ from those required when a plane wave front is used as an object beam. Experimental measurements of the hologram's diffraction efficiency and the optical noise dependencies on the recording-beam polarization and intensity ratio are in good agreement with theory. An experimental approach designed to find the optimal configuration of optical elements in a holographic interferometer with a photorefractive crystal is presented.

Current members who have recently completed a paramedic program at a level higher than their current licence level are eligible for a student restricted licence.
The student restriction will allow the member to work at the higher level while directly supervised by a member of the same licence level or higher, and to work at their lower level when not supervised. Direct supervision is defined as no more than an arms length away at all times while providing patient care.
For example, a PCP who has completed all portions of the ACP program and is waiting to complete the licensing exam may request an ACP student restricted licence. They may work at the PCP level with full scope of practice and also work as a restricted ACP when directly supervised. Supervision by other health professionals is not permitted.
Read the full policy on student restricted licences >
Our mission is to protect and serve the public interest through regulatory oversight of the paramedic profession. Our vision is to collaboratively build a profession that is a continually engaged partner, and fully utilized in a patient-centered health care system.

text: No matter what your style, we love the look of a bridal updo. Not only does having the hair swept up from off your neck help you feel cooler on a hot summer day (especially if your ceremony or reception is outdoors!), but it also allows you to show off that special pair of earrings or necklace that you plan to wear on your wedding day. There are also a wide variety of accessories you can include in your hairstyle—from ribbons to flowers to vintage pins, the options are endless. Here are 10 of our favourite bridal updos we currently love.

Jack Robertson – President – Jack has been interested in his Scottish heritage since he was a teenager. He is a member of Clan Donnachaidh (Robertson), and you're likely to see his own Robertson clan wearing their tartan at USCO events. He has been married over 20 years to his sweetheart, Heather, and has three children. Jack is obviously a fan of history, as he works for the Oklahoma Historical Society in the State Historic Preservation Office.
Paul Sinclair – Vice-President – An Oklahoma native of Irish/Nordic descent, Paul has always had a fierce love for his Celtic ancestry. As an adult he delved into the world of piping, and he is part of the state's largest and most active pipe band, the Oklahoma Scottish Pipes and Drums. When he's not enforcing his "no piobaireachd" rule with the pipe band, Paul is a police officer with the Edmond Police Department and has been in law enforcement his entire adult life. In addition to serving on the USCO Board, he is also the piping director for the Iron Thistle in Yukon. Need to find him? Just follow the pipes.
Tammy McCauley – Treasurer – Tammy managed the Children's Glen at the Iron Thistle. She loves Pina Coladas and getting lost in the Scottish rain (in Scotland, and Ireland – shh). She is Scottish (Clan Wallace), Native American, and a mesh of other nationalities. Tammy is all but dissertation in her doctorate, Educational Leadership in Curriculum and Instruction. She is a teacher, wife, and mother.
Kristi Kime – Secretary – Kristi is a member of both Clan Donald and Clan MacIntosh. In addition to her skills at generally keeping us organized, she is a piper for Oklahoma Scottish Pipes and Drums and makes a mean Irish Car Bomb Cupcake. Don't worry, though, the only thing exploding will be your taste buds.
Martha Hixon – Chief Programs Officer –
Jennie Stephens – Chief Development Officer – Jennie is a mother of 3 grown children and 7 grandchildren with 1 great grandson. She has been happily married to her husband Paul for over 20 years. Her interest in Scotland was encouraged by the Scottish exchange student her mother used to always have visiting at their home as she was growing up, so much that they kind of grew up together. She calls Hope Vere her adopted brother. He never had sisters so to him, she is his sister. She has always figured that she had Scottish ancestry, so when her uncle did some genealogy research and found out that we do have Scottish ancestry, she wasn't surprised. Now her fondest dream is to visit Scotland and share her love of Scottish heritage.
– Chief of Marketing & PR –
Jonathan Irvin – Chief of Athletics – Jonathan has been the festival chairman and heavy athletic director for the Iron Thistle Scottish Heritage Festival and Highland Games since its inception over ten years ago, as well as a trustee for USCO. He does a fantastic job of facilitating ideas & keeping us focused on moving forward.
Stephen McCauley – Chief Clan Officer -Stephen is Clan Johnstone, Murray, Scott and MacGregor. The McCauley name is of Scottish origin but was given to his family by a Indian agent in the late 1800's. He recently visited his homeland of Dumfries and Galloway. His wife found his 3 times great grandmother's tombstone in Lochmaben, a very moving moment of their trip. He actually loves haggis, not on a dare.
Stephen is a historian, including his Native American heritage and holds a degree in General Science. He is a carpenter, husband, and father of five.
Samonia CLM Byford – Historian – Samonia is a ninth generation Oklahoman, and active member of Clan Grant (centered now in Duthil, near Grantown-on-Spey and Cairngorms National Park). She is also active in the Siol Lewis Sept Assocation for descendants of Ludovik Grant (Jacobite who was transported to the Colonies in 1716) and his Cherokee wife. Samonia, her husband Dennis, and their twins live near the Oklahoma State Capitol, and she serves on other boards and committees while marketing and distributing books in Cherokee. Craig Elachie!
Nicole Rodriguez– Linguist – Nicole has always loved bagpipe music and men in kilts. It was her guilty pleasure until one day a friend invited her to Scotfest in Tulsa. She stopped at the USCO tent, learned how to join and started coming to the meetings. When she realized the people she met didn't think she was strange and were often more than a little bit of the same kind of strange, she kept coming. Since Nicole was quite the polyglot (someone who speaks several languages), Jonathan suggested that she learn the Lord's Prayer in Gaidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) to recite at the Iron Thistle. That went so well that it turned into heading up a whole study group dedicated to increasing the use of Gaidhlig and continuing to expand her knowledge.
Jeremy Irvin – Trustee – is a heavy athlete and one of our go-to guys for anything that needs to be done at the Iron Thistle. It's hard work being Jonathan's brother (and being mistaken for Jonathan quite often), but someone's gotta do it.
Tracy Sinclair – Trustee – Tracy "accidentally" married Paul Sinclair before she really understood what she was getting into with this Scottish business, but now she's an invaluable asset to USCO, the Iron Thistle, and Scotfest. Paul may be the piping director for the Iron Thistle and Scotfest, but we know who the real boss is!
Heather Robertson– Trustee – Heather has always had an appreciation of men in kilts & then I married one! She is the wife of Jack Robertson for 24 years & a mom of 3 grown kids. She always thought she was just German & Irish but it turns out she is also a Scot (much to her husband's relief). She is a photographer, animal lover, and mother of chickens. She love building & refinishing furniture…sawdust is Heather's glitter!
She has a strange fascination with T-rex & has been known to show up in costume…kilted. Yes, she's a little weird but she fits right in with this awesome bunch!
Tim Robertson – Trustee – Like his older brother Jack, Tim has always loved his Scottish heritage. He is a proud and active member of Clan Donnachaidh. Tim firmly believes in the mission of sharing Scottish heritage, history and culture with his fellow Oklahomans. He has spent many years volunteering for and attending many events of USCO and decided that the time was right to join the team.

"We fell in love with the location and we saw what the house could be so we bought it. When we approached Lisa we had some ideas about what we wanted from the kitchen space. As we have two children, we wanted a bright, open space, with lots of practical storage solutions, and a contemporary style. We wanted a space that would be the focal point of our newly renovated home. Lisa listened, helped us to put shape our ideas; and then took them to another level.
Lisa walked with us through what we wanted from the space; how we prepare meals; what we stored in previous kitchens; how we saw ourselves living in the space with our children; and how we wanted to use the space for entertaining. She brought pragmatism to the table and then used her creativity to produce a practical, beautiful, timeless space.
The kitchen area benefits from direct sunshine from morning to late afternoon. To maximise light, we vaulted the ceiling and installed some Velux windows. Lisa suggested we also install a full length glass door in the rear external wall, both to add more light but also to add an interesting new design feature to the room.
This, together with other design ideas from Lisa, ones we would never have thought of, resulted in a kitchen layout that has given us far more than we had ever expected.
Lisa brought us through all the colour and structural options, using various sample combinations to show us what we could achieve. We decided on a soft Seashell tone with contrasting Bourbon Sinquastone worktop and upstands. We like the colours so much that we followed with a similar palette throughout the rest of the house
During installation, Lisa made several visits, keeping a close eye on every detail.
The kitchen space now suits us perfectly. Practical, bold, beautiful. We love it and it's where we spend most of our time"

The government-commissioned Taylor Review in Modern Employment Practices has called on the UK to improve its management capabilities in order to deliver true fairness in the workplace. As part of the review, the government has released a list of seven principles it believes the UK needs in order to achieve fair and decent work for all, as well as a 115 page report.
Among the seven principles announced today are a desire for better managed organisations, driven by responsible corporate governance, not regulation, as well as a commitment to further training for British workers and a more proactive approach to managing mental health in the workplace.
And Matthew Taylor, author of the report, drew attention to the importance of the gig economy to the UK, but said that more needed to be done to re-balance flexible working arrangements so that it was not one-sided in favour of the employer.
"Of all the issues that were raised with us as we went around the country, the one that came through most strongly was what the report calls one-sided flexibility," he said. "One-sided flexibility is where employers seek to transfer all risk onto the shoulder of workers in ways that make people more insecure and makes their lives harder to manage. It's the people told to be ready for work or travelling to work, only to be told none is available."
CMI chief executive Ann Francke welcomed the findings of the review, and said the UK would benefit from adopting the principles laid out by the report.
"Taylor's welcome recommendations drive home the need for better management to transform the workplace and UK plc," she said. "It's great to see that Taylor's principles also highlight the need to improve employee training, engagement and sense of purpose at work.
"Businesses rather than additional regulation should be responsible for creating fairer and more productive workplaces. The launch of Taylor's review on the same day as the Productivity Leadership Group's 'Be The Business' campaign shows the growing recognition that professionalising management will go a long way to solving the UK's stubborn productivity puzzle."
1. Our national strategy for work– the British way - should be explicitly directed toward the goal of good work for all, recognising that good work and plentiful work can and should go together. Good work is something for which Government needs to be held accountable but for which we all need to take responsibility.
a) The same basic principles should apply to all forms of employment in the British economy – there should be a fair balance of rights and responsibilities, everyone should have a baseline of protection and there should be routes to enable progression at work.
b) Over the long term, in the interests of innovation, fair competition and sound public finances, we need to make the taxation of labour more consistent across employment forms while at the same time improving the rights and entitlements of self-employed people.
c) Technological change will impact work and types of employment and we need to be able to adapt, but technology can also offer new opportunities for smarter regulation, more flexible entitlements and new ways for people to organise.
2. Platform based working offers welcome opportunities for genuine two way flexibility and can provide opportunities for those who may not be able to work in more conventional ways. These should be protected while ensuring fairness for those who work through these platforms and those who compete with them.
Worker (or 'Dependent Contractor' as we suggest renaming it) status should be maintained but we should be clearer about how to distinguish workers from those who are legitimately self-employed.
3. The law and the way it is promulgated and enforced should help firms make the right choices and individuals to know and exercise their rights. Although there are some things that can be done to improve working practices for employees, the 'employment wedge' (the additional, largely non- wage, costs associated with taking someone on as an employee) is already high and we should avoid increasing it further.
'Dependent contractors' are the group most likely to suffer from unfair one- sided flexibility and therefore we need to provide additional protections for this group and stronger incentives for firms to treat them fairly.
4. The best way to achieve better work is not national regulation but responsible corporate governance, good management and strong employment relations within the organisation, which is why it is important that companies are seen to take good work seriously and are open about their practices and that all workers are able to be engaged and heard.
5. It is vital to individuals and the health of our economy that everyone feels they have realistically attainable ways to strengthen their future work prospects and that they can, from the beginning to the end of their working life, record and enhance the capabilities developed in formal and informal learning and in on the job and off the job activities.
6. The shape and content of work and individual health and well-being are strongly related. For the benefit for firms, workers and the public interest we need to develop a more proactive approach to workplace health.
7. The National Living Wage is a powerful tool to raise the financial base line of low paid workers. It needs to be accompanied by sectoral strategies engaging employers, employees and stakeholders to ensure that people – particularly in low paid sectors – are not stuck at the living wage minimum or facing insecurity but can progress in their current and future work.

Centre for Common Law
The Centre for Common Law, established in September 2014, is a cooperative joint venture between the Great Britain-China Centre, the University of Oxford's Law Faculty, and Renmin Law School – China's leading university law school. The Centre was established to promote the values and principles of Common Law in China, to support collaborative research, and to serve as a platform to deepen and strengthen legal and judicial contacts between the UK and China.
As Chinese companies invest abroad in larger numbers, the demand for well-trained lawyers is increasing, and Chinese interest in common law legal systems is growing in line with this. The UK's reputation for the fairness and justice of our legal and judicial system is unrivalled, and the Centre for Common Law was established to capitalise on this major opportunity for the UK.
The Centre for Common Law Academic Advisory Council is led by joint Presidents Lord Phillips of Worth Matravers, former President of the UK Supreme Court, and Mr Xiao Yang, former President of the Chinese Supreme Court.
