Stoneware 3Qt. Casserole Dish
The casserole dish has long been a favorite for producing slow-cooked or one-pot meals. It is a priceless must-have when you are cooking for a crowd. With locavore communities springing up the use of the covered casserole is blossoming. So many home chefs don't want to lose nutrients from casting off the cooking water instead incorporate the liquid back into the meal. One pot meals are healthy, simple and can save lots of time. With that said, you will totally understand why the Greenfield Village pottery staff selected their casserole as a must-have for your kitchen! Besides,cooking in ceramics will improve flavor.
Since many of us have lost the experience of cooking with ceramics, here are a few helpful hints for general care: Do not use on open flame. Allow the pottery to come to room temperature from the refrigerator before baking in the oven. Once baked, place the casserole on a baking wire to cool to avoid damaging your counter top or prevent thermal shock.

Go Paperless
The supply chain industry has traditionally been heavily involved in tons of paperwork from orders printed and routing sheets given to drivers to the feedback and acknowledgement collected by drivers from the customers. Many a time there were errors in entering the feedback by the driver or hurriedly scrawled inputs/feedback which are not legible and hence lost for good. The list goes on with lost, torn routing sheets which delay the delivery and lead to customer dissatisfaction. This is on the delivery side! We have a whole slew of problems in the billing and invoicing side of the delivery organization. Manually entering the data on orders, payments, generating paper based invoices, mailing them and this is just the tip of the iceberg. Majority of time is spent in retrieving valuable information and sometimes it is lost in the value chain due to omissions and errors leading to lost business and eroded margins. The enormous amount of staff used to maintain this paper based system and the time, effort and money consumed in this method is an unnecessary waste of resources.
With the advanced technologies available today, there is every reason for companies to go completely paperless. It makes good business sense and simple common sense to do with paper based system and move on to the automated efficient system for managing your business process.
With the DispatchTrack solution, you can electronically communicate with your field personnel from your office. This gives you the power to quickly resolve any issues on the field and not wait for the driver to return to the office and file the report. You can push routing schedules to your drivers without the cumbersome paper based method where the drivers had to sieve through sheets and sheets of paper to find the next delivery stop. Field personnel can instantaneously send pictures of the items delivered, their condition, notes, signature of the customer, etc. making the process seamless and transparent which is what your customers are demanding.

Tajdar-e-Haram crosses 100 million viewers on Youtube
The super hit from Coke Studio's Season 8, Tajdar-e-Haram has broken all records for Pakistani starting point content, by turning into the primary tune to cross one hundred million perspectives on YouTube.
In a split second mainstream from the primary day it was discharged, the tune has come to symbolize the center vision of the notable music stage Coke Studio and everything that it speaks to.
Other than intersection the 100 million perspectives point of reference, Tajdar – e-Haramhas got more than 5 million engagements and has been seen in no under 186 nations over the world.
From the initial couple of harmonies, Tajdar-e-Haram built up itself as a natural tune of a qawwali that has been everlastingly carved in the very soul of the fan of the class.
Atif Aslam delicately drove one into recognizable encompassing region, with the cadence of the tabla by Babar Ali Khanna and the predictable predominance of the beat gave by Arsalan Rabbani on the harmonium.
This ten moment version makes a practically mesmerizing daze that inundates audience members through its sheer attraction.
Close on the foot sole areas of Tajdar-e-Haram is the wonderful melody Afree Afreen, from Coke Studio Season 9 which has so far got 99 million perspectives and is good to go to accomplish the 100 million perspectives development likewise soon.
Coke Studio specifically powers music discussions through notable narrating and fruitful combinations of melodic traditions; blending old and new specialists, and conventional and present day sounds.
It is about compared music styles from enhanced craftsmen and times in Pakistan's melodic history.
As Coke Studio proceeds on its voyage, it owes an obligation to Strings, the official makers for Seasons 6 to 10, whose commitment to the development of Pakistan's most famous music stage was noteworthy, reinforcing further the establishment for the future trip of Coke Studio.

"Do you know how many times I was like, 'Are we breaking the Marvel universe? We threw everything out. We started all over again with this. We threw the Thor franchise out. We threw everyone's perception of Banner out. We threw everyone's perception of Hulk out. We threw everyone's perception of Thor out. And, yes, we knew what we were doing. At the same time we were like, 'Let's just do it, and let's go for it, and let's do it the best and most honest and fun way that we can.' Taika did that, and he wasn't afraid of that … so we improvised a lot and we played … and that playfulness is really appealing on-screen."

The Big Melt - How Steel Made Us Hard
BFI National Archive footage is combined with a score recorded live at the Crucible Theatre to tell the story of steel, the men in the steelworks and that of Sheffield itself.
A film by Martin Wallace and Jarvis Cocker, The Big Melt combines 100 years of footage from the BFI National Archive with a score recorded live at the Crucible Theatre on the opening night of Sheffield Doc/Fest in June 2013 to tell the story of steel, the story of the men in the steelworks and the story of Sheffield.
Taking us on musical journey into the soul of a nation, it brings to life the ghosts of our past, taking us into the belly of the furnaces and showing how our national character has been stamped from the mighty presses of our industrial heritage.
Featuring leading Sheffield musicians including Jarvis Cocker and Pulp band members, the City of Sheffield Brass Band, Richard Hawley and his band members, the Forgemasters, a string quartet and a youth choir, the live soundtrack has been edited by Cocker to create a phenomenal music score - a new kind of Sheffield heavy metal, with pictures.

The Big Melt - How Steel Made Us Hard director Martin Wallace answers the Storyville Q&A
What is more important, story or character?
I believe that in many of the best films the two things usually interlock and merge together. However, The Big Melt (TBM) is probably one of the few films where this question doesn't readily apply at all, since there is neither a narrative nor any conventionally significant character. Instead, the film is organised in a more formal way, based on various associational devices. The closest we come to a central character would be the young teenager who seems to be queuing for work outside the Parkgate Iron and Steel Works in Rotherham in 1901. Unlike many of his colleagues, who appear somewhere between disinterested and amused by the camera's presence, he displays a remarkable cockiness. When he puts two fingers up to the camera, grumbling something along the lines of "it's OK for you, I'm the one who has to work all day in there…" there is something very 'modern' in his dissent, something that catapults him out of what often feels like a parallel universe of old movies, full of funny, jerky people who never really lived lives outside of their jittering frames. The attitude of this young man (whom Jarvis and I referred to as, 'Rods Master') felt like something of an invitation to explore the BFI's archive of films about steel without being too reverential towards the original purpose of those films. So, even in an atypical film like TBM, you find 'character' meshing with 'story'.
What made you first want to explore the subject?
The BFI, BBC Storyville and Sheffield Doc Fest had previously completed a project with Penny Woolcock and British Sea Power that explored the UK's coasts through archive and live music. TBM was born out of a similar desire to see what happens when you bring some amazing archive material into a new context and present it without narration. Jarvis was invited to provide the music and he asked me to get involved. He was drawn to the spirited dissent of the teenager I mentioned earlier. I began to look at the footage and (in part because Penny Woolcock had done such a great job of telling a classically constructed account of ordinary life in Britain) became excited at the prospect of re-imaging our material and the story of steel in a way that took something of a sideways leap, hoping to create a twisted time capsule for future generations, whilst trying to remain true to the essence of the 'real' story.
How long did it take to get the film off the ground?
I started in April 2013 by kicking around the footage and looking for a way in – a way to break free from what can become quite a burden when dealing with archive films of a certain historical weight and significance. (It's as if archive without narration typically puts the viewer in a default position that is largely passive). Meanwhile, Jarvis was compiling tracks he wanted to work with. From even before I was involved; he was very much focused on the live experience - watching the film in situ with live music - so our ideas about the film's form were always geared to this audience experience for the Sheffield DocFest premiere.
We spent a couple of days together every month or so, trying things out; sometimes the impetus came from the pictures, other times from the music and sound. Jarvis and I have worked together many times before and so we felt quite comfortable progressing in that exploratory manner. Nevertheless, trying to find a satisfying route through this formal approach to a 70minute film was significantly harder than telling a straight story. We then had about 10 days working with various subsections of the musicians, trying to hone the shape.
Since there was no way to get all fifty-two of the live music performers together prior to the day of the show, we were editing right up until an hour before the premiere at DocFest in mid-June. On the day of the show we had time for one, single run-through a couple of hours before the doors opened. Then it was performed live for nearly 1000 people. Exciting.
Between the end of June and November 2013 we tightened up the film so that it worked better as a standalone film, without a full brass band marching around in front etc.
What were you most surprised to learn in the course of production?
We had lots of great support from the film's producers and financiers. Since I came in so late and had never worked with any of them before, such great support was not something I could necessarily bank upon, especially since Jarvis and I were determined to drag the project off into quite unusual territory. Similarly, the BFI archive team were very gracious, even when we wanted to be a bit irreverent with some of their significant films.
Which documentary has most inspired you?
I saw Grey Gardens (1975) on TV when I was a young teen and it was part of a life-changing wave of exposure to significant international cinema that I was able to get from the BBC and Channel4 as a working class kid growing up in Liverpool. I'm going to throw this out there and say it: TV was better then. Now there is lots of great stuff on IF you can (be bothered to) find it, or afford it. Why I believe TV was better then was that it presented a more 'balanced diet' of things, which were accessible to all. These things benefited from being seen side by side with other types of programming and that flow encouraged audiences to expand their taste. Fewer channels meant more common viewing, discussion and debate. More channels kick-started a race to the bottom as ratings became king. Meanwhile viewers where encouraged to OD on narrow bands of programming. Rant over.
Favourite Website/blog?
I mooch around without any real loyalty. Please don't hate me.
Person you'd most like to interview (living or dead?)
Best piece of filmmaking advice you've ever been given?
Don't be boring.
Best piece of filmmaking equipment you can't live without?
I'm very fond of my Bolex and light meter, but I don't get to use either much these days, so I'd have to say my lastolite – make your contributors look gorgeous and they'll tell you what you need to know.
If money was no object, what is your dream documentary subject?
I'm very troubled by the widening levels of social inequality in Britain and where that is headed, particularly the way it is forming around a broadly north-south divide. It would be great to have the resources to do an extended exploration of this over a generation; something like Michael Apted's amazing Up series.
Favourite film of all time?
Fiction – Blue Velvet.
Documentary – Capturing the Friedmans.
Most difficult access?
In 1997/98 I made a TV series with Jarvis called Journeys into the Outside about ordinary people who had decided to build large-scale visionary environments. People like Simon Rodia who spent 33 years building the Watts Towers in LA before taking off one day and just leaving them to rot; lots of amazing, inspirational stories. Many of these guys (as they were usually lonely old men) were dead but we also tracked down several who were still living. There was a French guy called Roger Chomeaux, known has Chomo. He was initially a trained artist but had then become something of a recluse in the Fontainebleau Forest, where he'd created a series of large sculptural environments within several hectares of land in the middle of nowhere. For those of you too young to remember, in 1997 the internet was pretty useless and in any case Chomo didn't even have a phone let alone a computer. We had a few, slow exchanges of letter but these ended with him saying he didn't want to participate in 'f**kwit cinema'. The series was shot chronologically as a journey, so in the end we just gambled on showing up in the forest and trying to find him, to see if he might change his mind. This resulted in several hours in the rain, with Jarvis just shouting his name from the edge of the road. But the 91 year old Chomo didn't show. We left him a letter that we'd return the next day. (We were hoping we might be able to talk him into going on camera).
The next day his gate was open. A woman appeared – his wife. Whilst denying access for the camera, she took Jarvis and I around, showing off Chomo's work for a couple of hours, but still no sign of the man himself. We began to wonder if Chomo was in fact dead and that she'd just been conning us that he was still alive, but then finally she led us into a little room and there he was painting. There was no way he was going to go on camera but thanks to some great archive footage by Clovis Prevost we made the whole segment work as an elusive, mini quest.
Best recent read?
Rosemary's Baby, Ira Levin. It's not fine literature, but the book does so much of the hard work in setting the tone and milieu that was later appropriated by the film.

Tinder Fraudster Convinces Woman To Send Him £3,000 For Kidney Transplant
A woman has been left devastated after a man she met on Tinder conned her out of more than £3,000 by pretending he needed a kidney transplant.
Rebecca Rouse, 35, from Lincoln, UK, thought Paul Gillett, 28, was different to the other guys she met on the dating app - in a good way.
Within a couple of months, he had moved in with her and when he said he needed £3,182 to cover private medical fees for a kidney transplant, she forked out from her savings without a second thought.
However, after sending across the funds, she could no longer make contact with Gillett and eventually she realised their relationship had been built on lies.
Rebecca first swiped right back for him in February 2017 and in March of this year, Gillett, from Carmathen, Wales, was sentenced to three years in prison after he admitted three frauds and 21 similar matters at Worcester Crown Court.
Speaking to The Mirror, Rebecca said Gillett's swindling is still having an effect on her to this day.
She said: "I still can't believe the lengths he went to for money.
"When we first met, I really believed I'd found someone decent and that we had a lasting relationship. He seemed so nice and it felt like there was potential for it to blossom into something long-term.
"It's really shaken my trust in men. I'm still in a bad way because of him."
Reflecting on how it all began, Rebecca said she was deceived by his generosity and flattery.
She said: "I'd been single since the beginning of 2015 so it took a lot to put myself out there again.
"He wasn't like all the other people on Tinder and he appeared genuinely interested in me. All his messages were so flattering. Whenever I got one, it would put a huge smile on my face.

"He came around the night we met and my mum really liked him. We started seeing each other most days and Paul was so generous. He'd take mum and me out for meals and insist on paying.
"He even mentioned taking me to see Ed Sheeran for my birthday, so everything was going really well between us."
A month later, Gillett moved in with Rebecca and her mum after claiming a storm had rendered his house uninhabitable. He also began to open up to Rebecca about his apparent kidney problems, which made Rebecca feel closer to him, as she suffers from intracranial hypertension; he even showed her a medical dressing on his side after claiming he had been put on dialysis.
As such, Rebecca didn't think twice when he said he needed funds to cover private medical bills for a kidney transplant.
Rebecca told The Mirror: "He told me the waiting list on the NHS was too long and he'd have to go privately to a clinic he found in Cornwall. I transferred him the money from my savings account so he could cover the cost of a scan and his travel costs.
"But once he left, he got harder to reach and I started to get suspicious. He wouldn't answer my calls and when he gave me his mum's number, no one would answer that either.
"The whole situation was so stressful that it made my condition flare up. I got a horrible pain in my head and I collapsed. I was then rushed to hospital and they had to drain fluid off my brain."
After eventually managing to track down Gillett's parents online, Rebecca realised that almost everything he had told her was a lie.
She said: "They told me he wasn't a funeral director and he never had any kidney problems.
"They kept saying sorry for what he'd done. It was all a lie. I was devastated.
"Paul had also left his car in front of our house the whole time he'd been gone and when my mum and I went to inspect it, we saw a packet of surgical dressings in there from Boots. We started to doubt anything he'd told us was truthful."
Now that Gillett is behind bars, Rebecca said she is glad justice has been done.
She said: "I was so relieved, even though it brought it all back up again, but I'm glad to see that justice has been done.
"I haven't spoken to him since he was sent to prison but I hope he's having a tough time there. It takes a very weak individual to go out and do something so horrendous."

Why didn't Saki accept?
She clearly loved him, and could have won the Harutobowl right then and there.
You can't beat a childhood friend.
Because believe it or not, some people actually care about what the object of their affections actually think and care about. She may technically win the Harutobowl, but his heart would always be elsewhere.
She probably assumed that the writers wouldn't shit on her in season 2 and she'd win cleanly.
Was Saki a virgin? inb4 hurr all aidorus suck producer cock
God VVV was so fucking shit. Stop making me remember this /a/.
>What if we take the colony...
>...and push it SOMEWHERE ELSE?
VVV was retarded fun, with heavy emphasis on the "retarded".
S1 should have ended with a wedding.
Because then it would gave been an interesting series.
>0 screen time s2
>Shoko never finds out about the rape
>flashbacks entirely pointless and irrelevant
I'm still mad.
The thing I hated about Saki's treatment is S2 is that she was still best girl throughout. They didn't forget her character, but the plot just treated her like shit.
best vulvarape
What's that expression signify?
'this finger is too small for my mouth'
She respected his feelings, unlike Shoko
I'm kind of glad I stopped watching VVV after that singing episode, the best critique I've heard of it since was Code Geass fanfic written by Sonic fans.
How big a dick is needed to satisfy Saki?
I'm 5x4 is that enough?
I'll never understand why anyone would want Shoko to find out about the rape. It would have just created shitty drama. Just look at what Haruto forgetting muh cave promise resulted in.
Saki and LL were really good characters in a shit show. Its sad really.
Best fucking girl, mad she didn't get to be with the person she loved but at least she lived.
She deserved better than Haruto. Like Audrey. I wish something happened between them.
>Was Saki a virgin?
Did you watch the show anon?
I want to fuck Saki.
I want to fuck all the girls in this show, honestly.
She deserved better but the fact is, she loved Haruto and so I just wanted her to be happy with him.
>could have won the Harutobowl
She realized that bowl sucked ass.

The Cowes- Dinard – St Malo race is one of the oldest events in the RORC racing calendar and one of our favourite events. The race will provide us with a varied and interesting course, as once we've have headed west out of the Solent, our first natural race markers are the amazing Channel Islands, which often prove challenging to negotiate as we blast towards the Breton Coast.
We will have a thrilling night sail and have to be on our toes as there will be strong competition. We will be achieving approximately 175nM. After crossing the finish line, we will end the race in the stunning walled town of St Malo, which after a hard race is a welcome treat!
St Malo is a stunning fishing market town, famous for its oyster restaurants and fine dining. Fortunately we will have ample time after the race to wander the cobbled streets and soak up the atmosphere before settling down to a cold bottle of something nice.
We will then take a gentle cruise back to Krakens home port at Gunwharf Quays, giving us time to reflect on the amazing adventure we've all just been on!
The Boat - Kraken (ex Telefonica Black, Volvo 70) is a stripped out racing boat with very few luxuries, so please expect high side hot bunking, freeze dried food – as the galley consists of a sink and 1 camping stove for boiling water and a very exciting gimbled heads! On Kraken we like to be fully inclusive and give amateur sailors the chance to participate in all aspects of sailing the boat – we can assure you; you will not just be sitting on the rail
Crew Wanted

Warm Bath at Limoncello Gallery until 18th April.
"Dirt is matter out of place". This famous structuralist quote is saying that cultures tend to define something in relation to its opposite and this idea kept me stimulated throughout Lucy Clout's new video. Water in the natural environment, even in a dirty drainage ditch, can provide a calming visual vista. Water encroaching on the home is threatening. This is just one of the dizzying binary oppositions that pile up and reference each other in this cunningly constructed work: black/white, dirt/purity, sunrise/sunset, east/west, illusion/reality, male/female, conflict/harmony.
Superficially we are presented with two rather nerdy intercut videos. One documents the scuzzy, damp corners of a shared house while the female narrator bemoans the trials of sharing a living space with a group of women. They have all "succumbed to the idea" that water, whether this is rain, spilt coffee or piss drains in opposite directions depending on where in the house it falls, reaching seafall either on the east or west coast of England. This apparently barmy dichotomy gives them a mutually supportive focus for their shared lives.
The other video is an entrancingly scuzzy, low-res, colour saturated daily record of what appears to be two drainage channels flowing in opposite directions from a narrow culvert. These short clips are verbally time and date-stamped by the male video diarist whose has little else to say but is clearly fascinated by the water level. What a neat parallel.
In fact the clips reveal a different scenario. We slowly realise that he is captivated by the effects of shooting with the low angled sun behind him at dawn or dusk. He is switching his p.o.v. to opposite sides of the same channel. The reversed view gives the illusion of two channels. The sense of being tripped up leads onto more profound thoughts. How strong is this inbuilt bias to structure our cognitive and visual worlds in binary opposites? Like the diurnal rhythm of the drainage channel archivist it may give us a sense of order and security but sometimes this is a trap . Beneath this divided structure an alternative reality may exist.
So we hear a sense of weariness in the female narrator's voice as she opens with "I lived in a house with six other women for …a long time. It's an economic arrangement". This negativity is contradicted by a still image superimposed on the action, like a garish ad fly-posted onto a grimy inner-city wall. We see a glossy internet-sourced stock photo of a group of women in a highly sociable mood. These idealised stills recur at intervals undercutting the house's cheerless interior. But at one point a coarsely pixelated one is dropped in to muddle the message. The barely discernible smiles and party streamers convey anxiety rather than harmony.
The warm bath of the title fails to make an appearance in Clout's video. Perhaps it alludes to the contrasting nature/ culture transformations of water. In a state of nature water is cold and bracing and sometimes potentially invasive. Fire, Homo sapiens' first cultural artefact, tempered its chill so it could become a security blanket. For me, the comfort of a warm bath was evoked by the cosy, plump, nubbly-wool covered cushions that Clout has kindly provided for her viewers to lounge in. The gallery tyranny of insisting on backbreaking austere boxes to perch on is worth analysing.
Lucy Clout has played a blinder with this video. As in her previous video, From our own Correspondents, where she neatly exposed the off-camera nervousness of media professionals when projecting their own personas, she has a startling off-beam approach to exploring the tension between what we present and what we obscure. In her closing shot we see someone (the artist?) waving farewell on the house doorstep but apart from her hand the figure is hidden behind a stock photo of an idealised mother and baby.

Candidates contesting LG using social media to garner supportPhub Gem, Thimphu
Jun 30, 2016
Candidates, contesting for the upcoming local government elections, have started using social media to reach out to their voters.
"Some people of my gewog live out of Samdrup Jongkhar. So, I use social media to reach out to them," said a candidate from Samdrup Jongkhar.
The Election Commission of Bhutan said there are regulations the candidates have to follow while using social media to campaign.
The Social Media Rules and Regulations 2015 require every candidate to submit address/link they are using for election campaign to the ECB.
"Wechat, Viber, Whatsapp are identified by the phone number or ID. So, if the candidates wish to use any of these forums for election campaign, the ID and phone number must be submitted to the Election Commission of Bhutan at the time of filing nomination," said Ugyen of Legal and Communications Division under ECB.
He also said the candidates are not allowed to use social media to campaign 48 hours before the poll.

The election for general secretary of the civil service union PCS is now well into the branch nomination phase.
Nominations close on 14 October. Voting will run from 7 November to 12 December.
There are three known candidates: Mark Serwotka, the existing General Secretary; Marion Lloyd, the candidate of the Socialist Party (SP), a current PCS NEC [National Executive] member Marion Lloyd; and Bev Laidlaw, candidate of the Independent Left (IL), and also a current NEC member.
Bev Laidlaw has been a consistent opponent of the bombastic and failed PCS leadership. She has been elected to the NEC against the opposition of the existing Left Unity (LU) leadership, including Marion Lloyd. She is standing on a manifesto for transforming PCS and is committed, if elected, to returning much of the hyperinflated PCS General Secretary salary and to taking a wage in line with her current low grade salary and the benefits she receives to supplement her income.
In contrast, Serwotka and Lloyd were component parts of the same watertight PCS leadership for some fifteen years before the dramatic split in the dominant PCS LU group in May 2018.
Their current differences — as reflected in the actual policies they have supported and voted for within PCS — are not especially substantial, are certainly containable within LU, and are in large part invented or exaggerated to give some political dignity to their fallout.
Serwotka and Lloyd both offer more of the same leadership with this difference: Serwotka has kicked away the political double act he happily formed with the SP for many years, during which time it would have been nigh on impossible to get a policy feather between them. Now he wishes to reduce them to a minor nuisance (to himself) within PCS. However he views his many years of shared leadership with the SP in glowing terms.
Marion Lloyd wishes to return the SP to its former centrality within the PCS leadership and kick away Serwotka and his allies in the process. But she similarly sees their shared past history as a glorious one.
She does not wish to fundamentally change the culture of the PCS leadership, to frankly review the history of the Serwotka/SP joint leadership (seemingly no errors to spot), to review the salary structure of PCS to bring it closer into line with that of the great majority of members, or to fight for the election of all full time officers.
Serwotka's candidature is supported by LU but he clearly intended to stand irrespective of LU.
In the Assistant General Secretary election earlier this year, won by rank and file activist John Moloney standing for a radical transformation of PCS and committed to only taking a worker's wage, Serwotka was very keen that members should elect a woman to such a senior PCS position (a woman who was committed to taking the exceptionally large AGS salary). Serwotka's keenness, however, does not extend to the position of General Secretary or for a woman candidate – Bev Laidlaw — refusing to accept anything like the £94,000 pa salary that he enjoys.
Lloyd has stated "If I win, I will not take the full general secretary wage. I pledge to remain on my current civil service salary and not materially gain if elected." This differentiates her from Serwotka but has nothing to do with the long standing radical socialist and Marxist position on full time officers not separating themselves out from the working class with incomes the rest of us can only dream of. The SP itself demands that full-time union officials should "receive no more than a worker's wage" but Lloyd occupies a senior manager grade, receives the senior management salary that goes with that grade, and implicitly argues that is a workers' wage.
She and the SP should argue the point explicitly.
For her part, Bev Laidlaw is standing explicitly on a commitment to only taking a worker's wage and returning the great bulk of the obscene salary paid to the PCS General Secretary – more than is earned by over 99% of the entire civil service.
Serwotka's allies in the PCS Socialist View (SV), founded as a website in support of their campaign to oust former Assistant General Secretary and SP member Chris Baugh, acknowledge the SP's "historically proud record" within PCS.
This seemingly generous comment is self serving. Leading members in the SV had been SP members within PCS for decades until their break in 2018 and none of their non-SP allies had ever publicly expressed concern about the role of the SP. They can now all safely note that the SP has abandoned its "proud role" in pursuit of its own sectarian aims, "jeopardising all the gains made during Mark Serwotka's leadership."
The cult of Mark Serwotka is summed up in the SV statement: the coyly unstated "gains" were achieved under his leadership — makes one wonder why we need to elect an NEC — but the SV message is clear: dump the SP and re-elect our "outstanding" General Secretary.
The same risible approach can be found in the Marion Lloyd/SP campaign, and she most definitely is the candidate of the SP: the website of the Broad Left Network, which they founded within LU to give themselves greater factional leverage, is silent on her candidature.
When we dig beneath the sophistry of the SP, the essential message is, all was great in PCS until... relatively recently! On 15 May 2018, in The Socialist, Lloyd described LU's success in that year's NEC elections as "…a vote of confidence in Left Unity based on its record and on what it offers taking the union forward."
The SP could only see left wing merit where they now see bureaucratic drift and a retreat from a fighting union.
We have bland manifestos from Serwotka and Lloyd because they are in reality offering members more of the same misleadership that has dominated PCS for far too long.
People who want real change should nominate and campaign for Bev Laidlaw.

Rachel Bilson gives some basic fashion advice
HollywoodNews.com: Rachel Bilson has been working hard to make a name for herself in the fashion industry so she always has a little bit of advice to pass on.
The actress has some very simple advice that anyone can follow to come up with a good outfit: "It's fun to add pops of color here and there. I like to start out with a basic canvas (a white T and jeans), and then add a yellow sweater (H&M has some great ones) and maybe pink shoes," reports Just Jared.
But don't think about throwing just any colors together. Bilson has more advice on how to go about it: "When combining hues, you want to use shades that complement one another, such as lavender and brown or blue and green."
Think Bilson has good fashion sense?

Top 50 New Wave Songs Of All Time
As I was driving home from my Thanksgiving vacation, nearing New York City and its inevitable traffic, already tired from six hours in the car, relief came to me in the form of a local radio station: New Jersey's WFDU.
As I'm sure many of you did, I listened to a lot of radio when I was younger. I recorded Rick Dees' and Case Kasem's shows onto a cassette player, trying to cut off the garrulous DJ intros, so that I'd have nothing but music. I'd listen back to the songs during the week and then tape over them the following weekend. I wasn't very selective in what I recorded; these weren't mixes with an intended sequence or overarching theme. Instead, the tapes were documents of pop culture, of fads, and of my own childhood whims and wishes. Here's one song I remember in particular, by a band called Bourgeois Tagg:
The fact that WFDU was counting down the top 50 new-wave songs of all time made me want to grab an old tape player and record the entire thing. After all, what if I discovered a new band? How could I stand not knowing what the No. 1 song would be? Only a single Cure song on the list? At No. 41? Would I have to sit in my car and listen to the rest of the show?
Luckily, both tuning in and having a document of any given radio show is simple. So, in order to satisfy my curiosity as to whether I correctly guessed the No. 1 song (I did, barely), I listened to a stream of the program when I got home. And you can listen to it here.
If you don't want to listen through the whole show but do want to see the Top 50 list, you can check it out after the jump.
But I really do recommend listening to the program. Not only is it a somewhat surprising group of new-wave songs (i.e. not totally obvious), you'll also get to hear classics such as Squeeze's "Cool for Cats":

One important idea of sovereignty for any nation is its ability to control its borders.
This idea gets more important for smaller countries, especially when they are surrounded by larger countries, constantly moving demographics and do not have the absorptive capacity.
Bhutan is in an unenviable position with a population of around 700,000 and the size of roughly Switzerland, surrounded by much larger countries and demographics.
This is why it has always been critical for Bhutan's sovereignty and even survival to have the ability to control the movement of large numbers of people across its international borders.
Of late an emerging problem for Bhutan is in the explosion of the number of regional tourists coming into Bhutan.
This number has soared from 50,722 in 2012 to 152,896 by October 2017 which is a 300 percent jump in just five years.
On the other hand the numbers of international tourists have only increased marginally from 54,685 in 2012 to 54,641 until October 2017.
This issue is not about comparing the regional and international tourists, but the sheer increase in the volume of regional tourists which is unsustainable for Bhutan and already having an impact on Bhutan.
The impact is environmental, cultural, demographic, traffic jams, road safety, nuisance creation, stress on limited resources like water, pressure on limited infrastructure like roads and sewage etc.
In the medium term the clear and present danger is of Bhutan losing its high value and low impact tourism brand value and becoming just another overcrowded and overused South Asian hill station.
In the slightly longer term if the numbers are not controlled the above impacts will get worse and, there will be the inevitable domestic political backlash which will be translated swiftly into the diplomatic sphere.
Therefore, it is important to understand for Bhutan's neighbors and particularly India that the Tourism Council of Bhutan's (TCB) proposals to regulate regional tourism in Bhutan should not be just seen from the point of Bhutan wanting to protect its tourism brand value, but that there are deeper underpinnings.
So far, the Indian Embassy in Thimphu has traditionally not hesitated to highlight even minor issues faced by Indian visitors and vehicles coming into Bhutan, citing the commercial trade and transit agreement between the two countries.
With such a huge increase in numbers, mainly from India, the Indian government will have to take the bigger picture and the longer term view into account over Bhutan's core concerns.
Good ties and trust between the two nations don't just rest on economics, but it more importantly rests on respecting each other's security and sovereignty.
New Delhi should cooperate with Thimphu on this important issue.
The diplomatic friendship between the two nations count for more than letting relations get defined by unregulated mass tourism.
"Walking is a virtue, tourism is a deadly sin."

At least 150 women entrepreneurs who run small and medium businesses attended a three-day exhibition in Kabul where they displayed their handicrafts and other products from their companies.
The entrepreneurs said that they signed many agreements with other firms on their products during the exhibition organized by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.
The businesswomen said the number of visitors was not high in the three days of the exhibition, but they are still happy with their achievement at the expo.
"We signed two contracts, one for saffron and another for jewelry," said Fatana, head of a private company.
"We had technical cooperation and included women from all sectors," the deputy of Chamber of Commerce and Industries of Women, Parwarish Oriakhail, said.
Women investors from 14 provinces attended the expo and people from different parts of the country, including Kabul, came to visit the expo.
"The expo belongs to women investors in Afghanistan and we are responsible to buy and participate. I bought saffron and some other things," said Shogufa, a Kabul resident.
"Such exhibitions will have more and more visitors if the entry is free," said Razia Rastagar, a Herat resident.
A spokesman for the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, Samir Rasa, said more exhibitions for women-run companies will be held in Kabul and other parts of the country.
"We are planning to hold exhibitions not only in Kabul but in other provinces and abroad. We will organize workshops at women's exhibitions," said Rasa.

Directions and Deliberations
Stuck Between Directions & Implementations
The theme of our deliberations is - "Without Fear or Favor". How can such policing be achieved? How can the "ideal" be defined? Does it imply a police which does not look up to the politicians for directions and instead goes by the law books and the Constitution? A police which considers itself accountable to the people of the country? A police which upholds the rule of law under all circumstances, irrespective of the political complexion at the centre or in the states? These are the questions in our minds. This is the kind of police we have been dreaming of and fighting for over the past two decades.
Several committees and commissions have made recommendations on this subject over the years. The last authentic roadmap was laid
down by the Supreme Court in 2006 when it issued a set of seven directives to the central and state governments and said that these would hold good till they formulated their own laws. These directions were a distillation of the combined wisdom of all the recommendations made by different expert panels on the subject of police functioning. I do not claim any copyright on the prayers made in the petition, nor can the Supreme Court insist that the seven directives were original ideas not deliberated upon before. The truth is that the crux of all the recommendations made in the various reports by different commissions and committees were contained in these directives. However, despite 11 years having passed since the said order, the struggle for their implementation continues. It is a sad commentary on the functioning of the democratic system that directions issued by the Supreme Court have not been complied with and the states have been dragging their feet on the matter.
After the landmark 2006 judgement of the Supreme Court, Justice Thomas Committee was set up in 2008 and was expected to look into the status of compliance by different states. The committee, in its report submitted in 2010, was "dismayed" by the indifference shown by various state governments on the subject of compliance with the Supreme Court directions on police reforms. Another committee headed by Justice Verma was appointed after the Nirbhaya incident to suggest amendments in law to ensure safety of women. The report clearly said that unless the police were reformed, women's security would remain a pipe-dream. The findings of the report, 28 pages of which were solely devoted to police reforms, stated that systemic reforms in the police force will lead to improvement of the environment in general and women's issues in particular. Unfortunately, neither of the reports had any effect and the struggle continues till date.
Presently, things are at a critical juncture and the end of the tunnel is not in sight. I wish to raise three questions addressed to three different bodies. One question to the Supreme Court, one to the government, and one to the people of the country. By people I mean not only the citizens of the country but also the media, the NGOs and people from all walks of life.
My query to the Apex Court is that once a judgment has been delivered and directives given, is it not the court's responsibility to ensure their implementation? Is it not incumbent upon the Supreme Court to uphold the supremacy of law? The states should not have been allowed to get away with non-compliance. A time limit for compliance should have been given and disregarding that should have invited grave consequences and penalties. When the top court had the power to discipline the states, why did it refrain from exercising it? Why was it soft on the states which were throwing dust in the eyes of the judiciary?
The states have been submitting affidavits claiming that various steps had been taken in compliance whereas the reality is that nothing had actually changed on the ground. Even when there has been some compliance on paper, for example in the setting up of State Security Commissions in the states, their composition has been diluted, powers reduced, charter curtailed, and recommendations made not binding. Therefore, in the absence of actual compliance, such superfluous compliance serves no purpose.
An in-depth analysis shows that while some states have passed executive orders which do not comply with the directions, other states have passed acts. The states which have passed acts have been very ingenious. The Supreme Court judgement contained a mandatory sentence that the directives would hold good till such time as the states or the center legislated their own laws on the subject. The sentence had to be included because the court could fill a legislative vacuum but could not legislate. The states took advantage of this specific sentence, ignoring the other points and drafted their acts contrary to the letter and spirit of the Supreme Court's directions, legitimising the status quo in the process. So, the big question is, when the Supreme Court issues directions, is it also not binding, incumbent and necessary for it to ensure their compliance?
My second question is to the government whose slogan is 'sabka saath, sabka vikas', a catchphrase which is conceptually commendable. The question is, how can vikas be achieved? Economic development has certain prerequisites and requires a foundation based on stable law and order. In the absence of such stability, the entire edifice of economic development will come crashing down. This happened in Haryana a few months ago when `20,000 crore worth of property was destroyed within 15 days and the state was pushed back by at least 10 years. Are we awaiting a similar catastrophe to happen in other states before we realise that ensuring good law and order should hold primacy over building an economic superstructure? We need a reorganised, restructured and rejuvenated police force. Therefore, I wish to question the government if its priorities are right. Has it ensured good law and order in the country to secure sustained economic development? If the answer is in the negative and the subject of law and order continues to be neglected, what happened in Haryana will get repeated in other states as well.
My final question is to the people of the country. The public complains every other day about acts of omission or commission by the police in some part of the country or the other, resulting in the police getting hauled up and put in the dock. The complaints are varied and include issues like refusal to file FIRs, police atrocities and high-handedness, custodial deaths and violation of human rights. If we want the police to change, then we have to raise our voices so forcefully and articulate our views in support of police reforms so strongly that they reverberate even in the corridors of Parliament.
Police reforms are pivotal to holding the structure of the criminal justice system together. The reforms are not for the purpose of strengthening and empowering the police but for ensuring better security to the people, better governance, ensuring that human rights are upheld and rule of law is enforced under all circumstances. I wish to stress that I am not in favour of "independence" of police but want it to have operational autonomy, especially in matters of investigation where it needs to be independent from the external influences and pressures. I conclude by stating that if India is to become a modern, progressive, forward-looking nation, it must have police reforms.

Organizing for Action Says It Can't Move Climate Change Legislation In Congress
BY Sarah Lai Stirland | Friday, May 24 2013
Beleaguered on one side by pressure to take a stand on the controversial Keystone XL pipeline and hoping, on the other, to hang on to the activist energy of the president's progressive base, Organizing for Action leadership and partners aren't holding out much hope for the power of grassroots organizing to motivate action in Congress.
When asked whether Organizing for Action plans to push Congress to take any specific action on climate change legislation, such as enacting a carbon tax, Navin Nayak, the League of Conservation Voters' senior vice president of campaigns, basically said that it's impossible for now.
"Unfortunately, we have a Congress that is led in the House of Representatives by a climate denier," he said in a Wednesday evening conference call with OfA supporters, referring to House Speaker John Boehner. "As I mentioned, half of the Republican Caucus on both sides don't believe that climate change is occurring because of human activity, and so, I don't think we can really make the kind of progress we need to make in the long term, whether it's a carbon tax, whether it's a limit on carbon across the economy ... I think what we've got to do is change the politics of these issues."
Nayak further equated the politics of climate change in Congress to the politics of gun control: Unpopular and unlikely to gain any traction in Congress because of the composition of the House and rules of the Senate.
OfA launched a new "climate denier" campaign this week, calling on its members to call out in person and online the members of Congress who have spoken out against the idea that climate change is caused by human activity. The group has listed and mapped dozens of members of the House and Senate who've made statements on the issue, and linked their profiles to a pre-written Twitter message that site visitors can click on to send that member of Congress a messages saying: "Stop denying the science of #climate change. It's time for Congress to act."
The problem is that OfA isn't advocating for any specific piece of legislation. The group has also come under fire from the liberal part of the party who are upset that OfA is declining to lobby President Obama to decline the application to extend the Keystone Pipeline. The proposed $7 billion pipeline would transport oil from Canada's Alberta tar sands to Texas. Its proponents say that it will provide the United States with energy security and create jobs, while its opponents charge that the the process of extracting the oil from the tar sands is so energy intensive that the production of this kind of oil, in addition to the extra amount of carbon that the use of such oil would emit, would amount to an environmental disaster that would wipe out any gains made from other climate-friendly initiatives.
Several news outlets reported last week that OfA leaders circulated a talking points memo that direct volunteers to point to the State Department approval process if they were asked about Keystone, which according to a poll published this April has the support of 66 percent of Americans. The poll, conducted by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press, found that just 23 percent of those surveyed opposed it. It also found that 54 percent of Democrats favored the development of the pipeline, as do 70 percent of independents and 82 percent of Republicans. Other polling groups have published similar findings.
But the pipeline's potential impact has rankled environmental activists among the progressive left, who have vowed to use OfA's "grassroots" structure to urge the group towards action on Keystone. While OfA plans a "day of action" on May 29th where OfA members will hold a series of events targeting members of Congress who have been deemed "climate deniers," CREDO is asking members to go to OfA planning meetings and urge action on Keystone in particular.
"I would say the bottom line is Democrats who also oppose the Keystone XL are doing exactly what President Obama and OFA is telling us to do — be the change we wish to see in our communities and country," said Jane Kleeb, a spokeswoman for Bold Nebraska, one of the groups calling on Obama to block the development of the pipeline. "They asked us to be active citizens. They told us the only way to get things done is for the people to show their power. So we are doing exactly that and will not stop organizing, educating, protesting and showing up at Obama and OFA events until they do right by families and made-in-the USA energy."
Nayak did not discuss Keystone during the call, although LCV is part of an environmental coalition that wrote a letter to the State Department's Office of the Inspector General to investigate the department's pipeline approval process. The group is questioning the State Department's choice of Environmental Resources Management as the contractor to evaluate the environmental impact of the pipeline, saying that there might be conflicts of interest involved.
During the call, Nayak said that the primary goal of environmentally-minded OfA suporters should be to ridicule the "climate-deniers" rather than push for more immediate or concrete change.
"The climate deniers have become the most vocal people on this issue," while those who support legislation aimed at climate change have fallen silent since the mid-term elections of 2010 when the wave of Tea Party candidates infiltrated the House, he said.
"We will not get to the policy solutions, or the ultimate solutions that we need until we change the politics of this issue," he said, which is why OfA members need to "start aggressively pushing back at deniers."
"We need to make being a climate denier to be the same way as a Birther in this country, who espouse that the president wasn't born here in this country. We need to start treating all of these people like [Republican Missouri senatorial candidate] Todd Akin when it comes to issues of women's health, and espousing absurd ideas that have no basis in science or reality, and we've got to marginalize them."

How To Pick Bicycle Helmet For Your Child
There is a big possibility that you are thinking about purchasing the right accessories that you would need for your children. Aside from the knee and elbow paddings that you are going to choose, you need to make sure that you will choose the right helmet for your kids.
You may be wondering why you need to purchase helmets for your children. First and foremost, remember that this is required by law. It does not matter whether your child is only going to use the bike to ride on your driveway or on your street, you still need to make sure that your child will have the right gear when riding to ensure your child's safety. If you have more than one child and they all have bikes, you need to purchase various bike helmets for all of them.
Benefits of Having a Helmet
There are different benefits that people can get whenever they are wearing a helmet and they get into accidents. First and foremost, there are some kids who are prevented to have head injuries because they are wearing helmets when they get into accidents. It is obvious that people do not die from scraped knees and scratched elbows but most of the time, people may die from head injuries.
Make Sure That Your Children Will Wear Helmets Early
There is a big chance that your child would not want to wear helmets immediately because they are a bit uncomfortable especially if the fit of the helmet is not as good as your children would want them to be. Here are some of the ways by which you can let your children wear their helmet:
- Make sure that you will purchase the right helmet for your children.
- Let your children start wearing the helmet early. You may need to convince your children that they will not be allowed to ride their bikes unless they are wearing their helmets as well as the other gear that you may need.
- If you ride your own bike, show your children that you are also wearing a helmet. When you become a good example to your children, your children will follow suit.
Choosing the Right Helmet for Your Children
You may think that you need to take into consideration the price of the helmets that you are going to pick out. You may be tempted to pick out the least expensive helmet that you will find but remember that the helmet that your child will wear can be worn for a long time. Your children will grow but the helmet can last for a long time.
Here are other things that you ought to consider so that you can choose the right helmet:
- Look for the safety sticker of the helmet – You have to remember that there are some helmets that come with a safety sticker. This will ensure that the helmet can be safe to use especially when they would need to be brought out.
- Even though you should not purchase the least expensive helmet that you should find, remember that it does not mean that just because you have purchased something that is expensive, it is already the best helmet for your child. You may need to give attention to not just the brand of the helmet that you have chosen but also the quality of the helmet that you are going to pick out.
- Pay attention to how the helmet fits your child. You may think that just because the helmet is able to go over the head of your child it already means that it fits well but this is not the case at all. Make sure that the helmet is snug and comfortable. Remember that if the helmet does not fit well, there is a big chance that it will be harder for your child to wear the helmet for extended periods of time.
- You may find it important to purchase an adjustable helmet because there are some helmets that you just need to adjust so that the fit can be effective for your children. Once you find one that fits well, you know that it will be worn by your child every time he/she needs to use the bike.
Do you think that riding the bicycle is the only sport that would require your children to wear helmets? You need to remember that there are still a lot more that are available. For instance, children would need to wear helmets when they are skateboarding. Teenagers would also need to wear helmets when they are longboarding or even when riding motorcycles.
If in case you are still having some trouble choosing the right helmets for your children, you may need to seek the help of an assistant to give you the help that you are searching for. Remember that they may be able to give the advice that will allow you to make a decision.
