Russian Fear? It's Over.
Does russian fear have a serious impact on your life? It may not seem possible, but after more than a decade working with the most severe fears and phobias we have yet to come across someone with a case of russian fear that couldn't be overcome.
If you are now ready to have this over and done with, here's what you can expect from us:
- Significant progress overcoming russian fear in just 24 hours
- Privacy and complete discretion
- We've helped people from 70+ countries vanquish their fear
How Do You Get Started?
There are two programs we offer to help you overcome russian fear fast. We have the Home Study program (where you can go at your own speed), or you can work with a board-certified expert practitioner in our one-on-one program:

Individually-Tailored Plan with a Highly Qualified Practitioner

Getting rid of Russian Fear: How It Works
Re-'wiring' your unconscious mind is the key to this program – and its safe and surprisingly easy to do. You know that Russian Fear isn't working for you. But the fear remains because, with even just a thought of russians, your subconscious mind triggers fear and other negative emotions.
Until now, you just haven't had the techniques for re-programming those connections. We're here to teach the techniques to you. Are you ready to get started?
- Are you ready to speak with a Board-Certified Specialist? Contact Us Now Contact Us Now >
When You're Searching for Treatments and Cures to Vanquish Your Russian Fear
Unlike other solutions, we don't promise you a cure for your fear. YOU are the one with the authority to modify your perceptions. Our job is to educate you as you journey through this course to overcome your fear.
The process educates you with exact steps on how you gain self-confidence, calm and happiness, as well as proven methods to overcome anger, sadness, fear, hurt, guilt and anxiety. You have dealt with these emotions haunting you long enough. Harmful thinking isn't helping – you need to make some serious changes now.
Risk Factors & Causes for Russophobia
An really disturbing incident from the past, is often (though, not always) the root cause of Russian Fear. In some cases, the mind has seemingly, without basis, created the fear. You resolve this issue by discovering the source and trading the negative correlations with positive ones. Persons that find themselves at greatest risk:
• Individuals who are predisposed to feelings of worry and anxiety
• One who seems to be 'high-strung'
• If you experience adrenal insufficiency
Do you feel as if even one of these represents you? To find out what others are saying about our ability to help, click here.
You can also read what the media has to say.
Tests, Symptoms & Diagnosis
To find out the gravity of the problem for you, use our 2 minute Online Assessment for Russian Fear Online Test although it is fairly clear cut: Now is the point in time to take control, if the fear is considerably taking over your life, in a negative way.
- Do you become queasy at the smallest idea of Russians?
- Do your palms get clammy and your mouth feel like cotton?
- Does your heart begin to race?
- Do your legs feel as if they will give way?
Those are just a few of the symptoms. Click here to learn more about the symptoms of russian fear.
We address the symptoms, but we uncover the source, to eliminate them both. Our goal is to have you get rid of the root cause of the fear.
Medications & Prescribed Drugs
We feel drugs and medication for Russian Fear aren't the best approach, but make sure you always follow a doctor's advice when taking or stopping any prescription. Drugs may produce a short-term improvement by masking symptoms, but they never tackle the core problem of the overwhelming automatic fear response to russians.
By the way – no one has ever developed a drug exclusively for Russian Fear – and with all the undetermined possible side effects, it is difficult to rationalize taking a prescription as the answer.
The good news is with CTRN you will overcome Russian Fear, without prescription pills..

Paying your way – automating adjustment averages
For several years we've been seen a shortage of cattle within the UK, creating a seller's market for farmers and producers that can make it hard for abattoirs to find the margins they need.
Now, as part of its specialist abattoir software suite, powerful algorithms have been developed by Systems Integration to minimise the amount that's overpaid on the base price, as Rob Stephens, Managing Director of SI (Systems Integration) explains.
"The simple rules of supply and demand dictate that when there's a shortage of cattle or other livestock, buyers need to make sure they're offering the best prices if they want to fulfil their orders. Naturally, this can have a knock-on effect to abattoirs' profit margins as it may necessitate the need to out-compete other businesses and overpay on the base price.
"The software is already delivering savings of 1-1.5% per week, whilst maximising an abattoir's efficiency and profitability."
The base price benchmark
"At the start of each week, abattoirs across the UK set the base price they are willing to pay for animals, depending on how management believes the wider market is behaving. This benchmark then feeds into a formula that sets the price for each individual animal, depending on how they are graded, according to the Eurogrid system – something that depends on everything from age to fat and muscle levels.
"With the huge number and variety of livestock that pass through a site over the course of a week, as well as the number of available grades; managing adjustments, expediting payments to producers and understanding the consequences is a constant challenge for abattoirs.
"By taking advantage of the specialised abattoir management software on offer, however, it's possible for companies to not only improve their profit margins and boost consistency, but also work with farmers and producers, to gradually improve the quality of the animals they're supplying.
An Automatic Improvement
"While setting the base price is still a task best left to well-trained experts, our livestock payments application analyses the data brought in from an abattoir's grading station and automatically adjusts the price for each animal.
"These adjustment averages will take account of a wide range of factors, including the farm or producer that supplied it, the type of animal, its grade and whether the cost needs to include commission for the agent. The combined information is run through the programme and used to determine the specification and pricing bracket for the animal.
"When an animal reaches the grading station, a automatic profile is set up and checked against the orders. This ensures that the carcass meat can be sold at the best possible price and with a minimum of waiting."
"Typically, these adjustments and the ability to efficiently arrange the data, results in a 1 -1.5% improvement in livestock payments per week. For instance, if an abattoir is paying £3 a kg per animal/300kg per head) at a 1,000 head a week, it's possible to deliver average savings of £9,000 per week.
"In addition to this, our Integreater software can manage every stage of your abattoir operations and record the level of detail that's crucial to your business, from traceability software to the site's booking and scheduling systems. The benefits to both operational efficiency and ease-of-use from this can be huge.
"For example, when an animal reaches the grading station, a profile will automatically be set up and then checked against the orders you're looking to fulfil. This ensures that the meat produced from the carcass can be sold at the best possible price and with a minimum of waiting.
"For the farmers and producers, the time taken to process payments is reduced, as our software incorporates the Eurogrid grading system, and feeds the data captured back into the livestock payment system. The software also checks the farm assurance status, through its integrations with Red Tractor, SPECC and other schemes, which in turn affects the price. And it's now possible to provide same day payments, as when the batch kill is complete, through use of our technology, the abattoir can automatically price it.
Feeding Back to Farmers
"One of the most useful elements of the automated pricing system is the clear, impartial information it provides. This is vital, as when farmers and producers provide livestock to slaughter houses it's important that they understand the factors that determined the prices they were offered. After all, if their animals haven't achieved their target price, they will almost certainly want to understand why their livestock has not achieved the necessary level of grading. For instance, if liver fluke is found on one animal from a farm, chances are that it will affect every animal from that farm. And, as this will mean that the offal has to be thrown away for each animal, the individual value will be reduced.
"With the right information, it's possible to work with the farmers and producers using the data collected by the pricing software. This could then be traced back to the animals' conditions and grading and how this relates to their rearing. Helping suppliers make adjustments to feed, health and other parts of the rearing process could allow them to gain greater consistency on price, while you benefit from higher quality animals.
"Livestock payments represent just one element of abattoir operations that SI has developed specific software for. We've created proven solutions that will improve your operations from the moment livestock arrives at the abattoir, right through to the boning hall.
"If you are considering an upgrade to your existing livestock systems, our food productivity experts are here to help. We already supply some of the largest meat producers in the UK, Canada and the USA with reliable and state of the art Livestock Systems.

Syrian government forces surrounded a Turkish military observation post in the northwest on Friday after overrunning neighbouring towns, upping the stakes with Ankara in its Russian-backed offensive against the jihadist-ruled Idlib region.Story here.
Ankara vowed on Tuesday that it would not abandon any of 12 observation posts it established in the region under a deal with Damascus ally Moscow last and warned the Syrian government "not to play with fire".
Hmm. Did I miss something? I thought the "play with fire" remark was in response to action against a Turk convoy. Now we see this. Things are a bit dicey I'm betting.
The sad part?
Games are being played on a nation state level in Syria and men are dying with no idea why.

Letter: Thankful for firefighters
Editor, Advertiser:
Several weeks ago, there was a meltdown of a dehumidifier in my basement which caused thick, black smoke to engulf my home. The New Canaan Fire Department arrived and, with speed and professionalism, found the cause, extinguished the source and ensured safety throughout.
How fortunate we are in New Canaan to have such a dedicated team of firefighters, and I extend my gratitude and most sincere thanks.

GLOBE Thailand Engages in Series of 2018-2019 Trainings to "Shut Down Mosquito Population" and Reduce Threat of Mosquito-borne Disease
In September 2018, GLOBE Thailand engaged in a focused two-day training designed to teach more than 500 participants about the increasing threat of the Zika virus and other mosquito-borne diseases – and how to engage in data collection to help reduce that threat. This training, in turn, led to several additional trainings that took place throughout the country in 2018-2019.
The initial training, which took place in Bangkok, began with a pre-training survey (to help assess the needs of participants) and then presented materials on mosquito-borne diseases prevalent in Thailand. The training also covered a mosquito larvae key session and an outdoor activity that taught participants how to safely collect mosquito larvae, how to use the GLOBE Observer Mosquito Habitat Mapper tool, and how to collect and share data with citizen scientists around the world via the habitat mapper tool. The training ended with a post-training survey, to help trainers determine the level of success of the training.
"We are very proud of our Mosquito training curriculum, because we are not only shut down mosquito population, but we also shared tons of data collection that could help international scientists predict new outbreaks. In addition, we have invited the scientist from Department of Medical Science to share about mosquito borne diseases in Thailand," said Dr. Nisakorn Saengprachum (Institute for the Promotion of Teaching Science and Technology, Ministry of Education, GLOBE Thailand).
Preparations for the training in Bangkok began immediately after GLOBE Thailand participated in the Country Mosquito Training (CMT) in Hanoi, Vietnam, in May of 2018 as part of the GLOBE Zika Education and Prevention Project.. "After that training," Dr. Saengprachum said, "we realized that mosquito-borne diseases, especially a disease caused by Zika virus, is an emerging threat. Most cases have no symptoms, but it will cause microcephaly and other brain malformations in some babies when this virus is present in mother during pregnancy. Moreover, more than half of the world is at risk of illness from mosquito-borne disease. Then we continued to train this course to teachers, students, and citizen scientists in every region in Thailand."
Trainings conducted in 2018 were:
- Bangkok province (07 September);
- Khon kaen province (22 September) ;
- Song kha province (29 September);
- Chon buri province (20 November); and
- Samut Songkhram province (14 December)
Trainings conducted in 2019 were:
- Nakorn Pathom province (17 January);
- Chiang Mai province (29-30 January); and
- Samut Songkhram province (10 February)
"As Thailand is located in Southeast Asia, with a perpetually wet and warm climate, there is never a shortage of mosquitoes," said Dr. Saengprachum. "There are over 400 different species of mosquito in Thailand. Recently, the number of mosquito-borne disease has been increasing, and this is thought to be linked to the dengue, chikungunya, or the Zika virus. In order to protect Thai people against these infectious diseases, it is important to teach them to try and avoid mosquito bites, as for everyone to work toward reducing the mosquito population. The content and method of the GLOBE Zika Education and Prevention Project can be implemented to breakdown the mosquito. Moreover, this project encourages STEM studies and builds networks with public health officials to better control mosquitoes and reduce mosquito-borne infectious disease in Thailand."
The GLOBE Thailand trainings have successfully trained over 2,000 people, including teachers, students, and citizen scientists.

Holy Cross has a new and thriving dance program. There are many opportunities for students to explore dance for the first time, or polish previously developed skills.
Students can choose to take the dance course, which is currently offered for all HC students. The grade 10 course allows students to develop their dance skills and learn the theoretical basis of a variety of dance genres. These genres include, hip hop, ballet, jazz, musical theatre, and modern dance. Student learning will include creating dance sequences, revising and refining choreography, public performances and exploration of injury prevention. Students set personal
goals with regard to flexibility and choreography. The grade 11 course extends past the basic dance technique, and allows students to expand on the historical background of each genre. Students will also perform in assemblies throughout the school year, including Pep Rally, Remembrance Day and Stations of the Cross.
Dance at Holy Cross promotes an open atmosphere and respects the unique process and level of each student. Each unit, activity and resource is intended to provide students with many expressive outlets to help them reach their full potential as members of the Catholic faith community.

Students who wish to try out for the HC Dance Team will travel to Toronto to compete at STRIVE; A competition created for High School and Community Centre participants. In 2016, the large group performance took home Diamond with a score 95.15% from the judges in their age category. This performance went on to win fourth best large group performance of the entire day!
The small group performance, which was also performed at our Holy Thursday liturgy, earned Diamond with a score of 95.98% in their category. This is an incredible achievement that went on to win first place overall out of all small groups.
Auditions are held in February for students from grades 9-12.
The dance club is open to all levels and grades at Holy Cross. We hold open hip-hop, contemporary and/or jazz classes once a week in the cafeteria and put together an energetic routine for the Spring Cabaret: Our annual HC talent show. This opportunity begins second semester and is a great way to get involved in the Arts at Holy Cross!
Annual Musical:
This year (2018) Holy Cross dancers auditioned to form the dance ensemble for the musical "Newsies". The show was an incredible opportunity for dancers to focus on the performance elements involved in dance, and experience the thrill of live theatre! Stay tuned for the announcement of next year's musical!

Kimel v. Florida Board of Regents
RESPONDENT: Florida Board of Regents
LOCATION: Florida State University
DECIDED BY: Rehnquist Court (1986-2005)
LOWER COURT: United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
ARGUED: Oct 13, 1999
DECIDED: Jan 11, 2000
Barbara D. Underwood - Argued for the United States, as petitioner in No. 98-796, and respondent in support of petitioners in No. 98-791
Jeremiah A. Collins - Argued the cause for petitioners in No. 98-791 (Kimel, et al.), and respondents under the Court's Rule 12.6 in support of petitioner in No. 98-796
Jeffrey S. Sutton - Argued the cause for state respondents in both cases
Facts of the case
The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA) makes it unlawful for a private employer "to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual or otherwise discriminate against any individual...because of such individual's age." In 1974, Congress extended the ADEA's substantive requirements to the states. First, in 1994, employees of the University of Montevallo filed suit against the university, a branch of the State of Alabama, alleging that the university had discriminated against them on the basis of their age. The federal District Court dismissed the case based on the state's Eleventh Amendment immunity. The court determined that, although the ADEA shows Congress' intent to abrogate a state's Eleventh Amendment immunity, Congress did not enact or extend the ADEA under its Fourteenth Amendment enforcement powers. The court, therefore, held that the ADEA did not abrogate the state's Eleventh Amendment immunity. Second, in 1995, a group of faculty and librarians of Florida State University filed suit against the Board of Regents, alleging that the university's fiscal actions had violated the ADEA because the actions had a disparate impact on the pay of older employees. When the Florida Board of Regents moved to dismiss the suit on Eleventh Amendment grounds, the District Court denied the motion, holding that Congress expressed its intent to abrogate state Eleventh Amendment immunity in the ADEA, and that the ADEA is a proper exercise of congressional authority under the Fourteenth Amendment. Likewise, in 1996, a third case, involving an employee of the Florida Department of Corrections, was similarly decided. The Court of Appeals, in deciding all three cases, held that the ADEA does not abrogate the states' Eleventh Amendment immunity.
Does the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 abrogate the states' Eleventh Amendment immunity?
Media for Kimel v. Florida Board of RegentsAudio Transcription for Oral Argument - October 13, 1999 in Kimel v. Florida Board of Regents
Audio Transcription for Opinion Announcement - January 11, 2000 in Kimel v. Florida Board of Regents
William H. Rehnquist:
The opinion of the Court in No. 98-791, Kimel against Florida Board of Regents and a companion case will be announced by Justice O'Connor.
Sandra Day O'Connor:
These cases come to us on writ of certiorari to the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.
In 1967, Congress passed the Age Discrimination in Employment Act.
The Act makes it unlawful for an employer to discriminate against any individual on the basis of age.
Although, the Act originally applied only to private employers, in 1974, Congress extended the Act to state and local government employers.
In these cases, before the Court, three sets of plaintiffs, employees of the state filed suit under the act in Federal Court seeking money damages from their state employers based on alleged discrimination on the basis of age.
In each case the state moved to dismiss the suit on the basis of its Eleventh Amendment immunity from suit in Federal Court.
In one case the District Court granted the motion to dismiss, but in the remaining cases the District Court denied the motions.
Appeals in all three cases were consolidated before the Court of Appeals and in a divided opinion the Eleventh Circuit held that the Age Discrimination in Employment Act does not abrogate the State's Eleventh Amendment immunity.
In an opinion filed with the Court today, we affirm that judgment.
We hold that Congress did clearly state its intention to abrogate the State's Sovereign Immunity.
The Act states that its requirement shall be enforced not only through its own remedial provisions but also through certain provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act and one of those provisions that Congress incorporated into that ADEA authorizes employees to bring law suits for money damages against state governments and both Federal and State Court.
Together, we think those provisions do sufficiently indicate Congress' intent to abrogate the State's Eleventh Amendment immunity.
Nevertheless, we conclude that in stripping the states of their Sovereign Immunity, Congress succeeded its constitutional authority.
The Age Discrimination in Employment Act is not appropriate legislation under Section 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment.
First, the Act imposes burdens on State and local governments that are disproportionate to any unconstitutional conduct that conceivably could be targeted by the Act.
Because age is not a suspect classification under the Equal Protection Clause, states may take action on the basis of age without offending the Fourteenth Amendment so long as the classification is rationally related to a legitimate state interest.
The rationality mandated by the Equal Protection Clause does not require states to match age distinctions and the legitimate interest they serve with razorlike precision.
Rather states may validly rely on age as a proxy for individuals, abilities or characteristics.
Judged against the standards it is clear that the ADEA's broad prohibition on the use of age is disproportionate to any supposed remedial objective.
Second, our examination of the Act's legislative record reveals that Congress had virtually no reason to believe that State and local governments were unconstitutionally discriminating against their employees on the basis of age.
Congress never identified any pattern of age discrimination by the states much less any discrimination at all that rose to the level of a constitutional violation.
That failure to uncover any significant pattern of unconstitutional discrimination, confirms that Congress had no reason to believe that broad prophylactic legislation was necessary.
In light of the Act's indiscriminant scope and the lack of evidence of wide spread and unconstitutional age discrimination by the states, we hold that the ADEA is not a valid exercise of Congress' Section 5 power.
The Act's purported abrogation of the State Sovereign Immunity is accordingly invalid.
Justice Stevens has filed an opinion dissenting in part and concurring in part in which Justices Souter, Ginsburg, and Breyer have joined; Justice Thomas has filed an opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part in which Justice Kennedy joins.

Ice-free Arctic with 1.5 C?
March 6, 2017 Reuters Full article here
Arctic sea ice may vanish in summers this century even if governments achieve a core target for limiting global warming set by almost 200 nations in 2015, scientists said on Monday. …Under the 2015 Paris Agreement, governments set a goal of limiting the rise in average world temperatures to well below 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial times, with an aspiration of just 1.5C (2.7F).
"The 2 degrees Celsius target may be insufficient to prevent an ice-free Arctic," James Screen and Daniel Williamson of Exeter University in Britain wrote in the journal Nature Climate Change after a statistical review of ice projections.
A 2C rise would still mean a 39 percent risk that ice will disappear in the Arctic Ocean in summers, they said. Ice was virtually certain to survive, however, with just 1.5C of warming.And they said they estimated a 73 percent probability that the ice would disappear in summer unless governments make deeper cuts in emissions than their existing plans. They estimated temperatures will rise 3C (5.4F) on current trends….

There are many factors that will affect the outcome of your divorce, from the length of your marriage, each of your incomes, and the involvement of children. One crucial factor, however, will play a large role in the outcome of the distribution of your marital assets. That factor is where you divorce. Each state has its own unique set of rules governing the division of assets during a divorce. A court in Texas, for instance, will apply drastically different rules in allocating assets than a court in New York. There are two main categories of rules for the distribution of assets used in states across the country: equitable distribution and community assets. Here is a look at the two systems
Community Property in a Mississippi Divorce
Community property is the less common division of assets regime. It is used in the following 9 states: Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. In addition, couples in Alaska can opt in to a community property system. The community property system derives from Spanish law, which accounts for its predominate presence in the southwestern states.
In a community property state, both spouses are considered equal owners of all marital property. As a general rule, whatever each spouse earns or acquires during the marriage is co-owned by both parties, regardless of who earned it or whose name is on the title. During a divorce, all assets are divided 50-50, with some state specific exceptions. Judges do not take into account the age, health, or employment prospects of the parties in dividing assets. However, these factors will be considered in determining alimony. Community property states are known to have very generous alimony laws, to accommodate for the lack of individualization in the division of assets.
Equitable Distribution in a Mississippi Divorce
Equitable distribution is the most common system used for division of assets, embraced in the remaining 41 states not described above. Mississippi is an equitable distribution state. In an equitable distribution state, assets are allocated to each spouse on the basis for fairness. Courts take into account the circumstances of the spouses and divide accordingly. Some of the factors considered include:
- The contributions of each party to the marital property
- Time spent on family duties during the marriage
- Contributions to the stability and harmony of the family
- Duration of the marriage
- Contributions to the education, training, or other accomplishment increasing the earning capacity of a spouse
- A spouse's disposal of marital assets
- The market value as well as emotional value of the assets subject to distribution
- The value of the assets not subject to distribution, such as inheritance
- Tax consequences of proposed distribution
- The needs of the parties for financial security
As is clear from these factors, equitable distribution does not always mean equal distribution. Before the court can weigh the above factors, it must determine what the marital assets are. Marital assets are those assets acquired through the efforts of one or both parties during the marriage. Included in the marital asset definition is added value, as where a property acquired before the marriage increases in value during the marriage. For instance, if one spouse had a home before the marriage and it increased in value $50,000, that increase in value would usually be considered a marital asset.
Comparing the two systems, you can see that the outcome of your divorce might vary significantly depending on whether you divorce in a community property or equitable distribution state. You are not necessarily bound by the division of asset laws of your state, however. You can create a pre or post-marital agreement that sets out the division of assets in the event of divorce.
Division of assets is often a highly contested area in any divorce. An experienced divorce attorney can fully explain the equitable distribution laws in your state and assist you in obtaining the most favorable asset division possible.

ALDA at the international seminar on "The social impacts of youth unemployment in the national and local context"
Marco Boaria, Resource and Development Unit Coordinator and Aldo Xhani, project manager, participated and contributed to the success of the third international seminar, within the project TYEC, focused on "The social impacts of youth unemployment in the national and local context". The event took place in Bucharest on 1 October and was an occasion for bringing together renowned stakeholders active in the youth employment field to discuss together on effective measures to tackle youth unemployment.
The seminar was based upon two pillars. The first panel gathered together local and regional authorities' representatives, national agencies, youth organisations and academic institutions in order to share successful practices unburdening social obstacles to youth. The panel addressed the issue of "Youth unemployment and the risk of social exclusion: European and National perspectives" and saw the participation of Ms Estèle Rival, representative of Pays Vichy Auvergne, Ms Raluca Tudor from the Romanian Municipalities Association (AMR), Mr Mihai Butu, Polytechnic University Bucharest, Mr Irinel Ciocioc, adviser of the Youth Minister in Romania, Ms Tudorita Bistreanu, director of the Romanian National Agency for Employment, Mr Ciprian Iliescu, president of the Cartel ALFA Youth Organisation, Mr Florian Marin, President of the BNS Youth Organization and Mr Angelo Pagliara, youth policy adviser at UIL. The panel promoted the need of a stronger effort to tackle youth unemployment both at national and European level and stressed the importance of acting on the territory, thus highlighting the key role of local and regional authorities as the actors in closest contact with their citizens and therefore the ones that better know their needs.
The second panel brought together representatives of trade union associations from the partner countries (France, Belgium, Italy, Spain and Romania) to discuss on "The social impact of youth unemployment: the role of social dialogue". Among the others, Mr Patrick Itschert, ETUC Deputy General Secretary, Mr Vito Marchiani, General Secretary UIL Toscana and Mr Carles Fons Poquet, representative of the Youth Committee of Confederacion de Comisiones Obreras contributed to the outcomes of the discussion.
ALDA had a key role in the event: Aldo Xhani opened the session and triggered the debate by presenting the research on "Counting the costs: the social impacts of youth unemployment in the national and local contests into the partner countries". ALDA also brought in the perspective of local authorities thanks to key speakers coming from its network such as Ms Estèle Rival from Pays Vichy Auvergne and Ms Raluca Tudor, representative of the Romanian Municipalities Association (AMR).

School Safety
Safety & Security at South Sioux City Schools
The safety of our students and staff is one of the most important factors to a successful school district. South Sioux City Community Schools is committed to ensuring our schools are safe and our staff is prepared. To enhance this, in 2017 we moved to a Standard Response Protocol (SRP) called "I Love U Guys". We feel this protocol will give us the tools to be even more prepared for weather events, fires, accidents, intruders and other threats to student and staff safety.
The Standard Response Protocol is based not on individual scenarios but on consistent response to any given scenario. SRP demands a specific vocabulary but also allows for great flexibility. The premise is simple - there are five specific actions that can be performed during an incident.
We have also added several Specialty Teams in the District to further tighten our response systems. With all working in collaboration, we feel more prepared to handle incidents that may occur during the course of the year. The following teams have been added and trained:
Safety & Security Team: A team that includes representatives from all building safety teams and meetings quarterly. This team is committed to and responsible for assessing any safety risks that could affect the schools, staff, and students. This group is responsible for safety and security planning, prevention, and disaster preparedness and response.
Parent Reunification Team: If a school would ever be forced to dismiss students from an alternate location, this team would coordinate efforts at the designated Parent Reunification Site. This District team responds to such an event and coordinates the dismissal procedures and to reunite students with their parents.
District Communication Team: Coordinating all communication efforts to our parents, staff, students and the community. This includes local media outlets, district website, twitter, facebook, email, phone, etc.
District Crisis Team: Led by our School Counselors, this team assembles any time there is a critical incident. This team is trained to provide trauma mitigation and education in the aftermath of a critical incident.
District Threat Assessment Team: is a group of trained officials that convene to identify, evaluate, and address threats or potential threats to school security. Our Threat Assessment team reviews incidents of threatening behavior by students (current and former), parents, school employees, or other individuals. Threat Assessment Team Flow Chart in PDF - revised 6-27-2018.

I'm having real problems with my editor at the moment. Janet Street Porter would be a breeze to work with in comparison. The last post was published without prior permissions and proof reading by said editor. In the first edition, the editor was displeased with some comments about the age of one of my co-workers. I had foolishly inserted octogenarian instead of septuagenarian. I also had not thanked Pearl for the banquet that was produced on our behalf. I am deeply saddened by my mistake and apologise profusely to those affected by these omissions and if I have caused any offence I will make amends (in your dreams). If the editor thinks she could do better then can I suggest that she stops interfering with my posts and takes up the pen in a rival publication.

(Lorain, OH) – Families looking for caregivers to provide help at home for their loved ones got a scare recently with a study published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society. The study, conducted by Northwestern University, examined the hiring and screening practices of 180 responding homecare agencies, and concluded that families need to be cautious that the agency is not misrepresenting their caregivers' skills and their agencies' training and supervision.
The reality is that not every homecare agency offers the help a family may need. Some agencies may not provide adequate screening or training and finding the right fit between the caregiver and the client, and finding an agency that can truly provide the care that's needed, can be difficult. The situation is often made even more challenging because it may be an unplanned need, making it both more important and harder to be selective in evaluating an agency and an individual caregiver.
To make sure that families get qualified help, the study suggested ten questions to ask. Visiting Angels of Lorain County, part of the national Visiting Angels franchise network, suggests that families ask not just those questions but a few more to ensure the right fit:
15 questions to help you find the right home care agency and caregiver
As Aaron Olson of Visiting Angels explains, "bringing someone into your home is very personal. Too often families don't know what questions to ask, so they choose an agency that may not be the right fit. It's so important to ask questions and to be confident that the agency you choose can stand by you when you need them. We hope these questions help families feel more confident in their choices."
To find out more about how home care can help, explore the Visiting Angel's website at www.visitingangels.com/lcoh or call them at 440-988-3004 with any questions about essential personal home health care.

Backing up what John Wrot said, an 18% increase is only poor if the other percentages of people said they would specifically not attend if a star was present. As it is, without a star there's no difference, with a star there's an 18% bump, that means they make a big difference to the success or failure of a convention, almost a 1 fifth jump in ticket sales.
The main thing I think is that there's a big difference between famous competitors and famous producers. Wizards of the Coast did a lot to produce pro-tour stars, because it said to the people who were buying magic the gathering that they could be that person, they could play pro. Of course, a lot was to do with Richard Garfield's drive to create intellectual sports and build a supportive community to socially excluded people, but telling them that they could make money due to buying and playing Magic didn't hurt their sales any. On the same score, they don't push the idea of the (many) designers they have working on the game, I assume because that would create an idea, however inaccurate, that quality would vary.
I do find this an interesting thread because humble though you come across Jamey, within the boardgame world you are a superstar, and I think its clear to see that it drives a certain amount of sales for a game to have the Stegmaier name and Stonemaier brand on it. Its tough to split that out from brand trust and reliability, but I'd suggest that the increase in sales from one game to the next has a lot to do with that rising fame (and the lack of drop off to do with the quality and reliability from one game to the next).

Today's coverage includes the latest news about smart speakers, along with an Uber partner raising a good piece of capital. Pinterest is eying an IPO, the year's biggest shopping day is approaching and the holidays will result in significant late payments in the supply chain.
Amazon's Smart Speaker Dominance Expected to Shrink as Competitors Rise
Forecasting Analyst Jaimie Chung said new speakers now have technology that is comparable to the Echo, and that will make other models more attractive.
Uber Partner Fair Raises $385M in Funding Led by SoftBank
Fair has a mobile app and website that makes it easy to search for and purchase a car while staying within a predetermined budget. Through the app, users search for a car and sign the lease without the need to go to a car dealer.
Pinterest Mulls April 2019 IPO
Pinterest could choose its underwriters for the IPO as soon as January. Once it's set, the company could reach a valuation at or in excess of $12 billion, although that could obviously change between now and when the IPO becomes a reality.
US Shoppers to Spend $26B on Dec. 22

Year 3
Welcome to Year 3
Miss Reynolds, Mrs Cunningham and Mrs Preston welcome you and your children to Year 3. Together with the support of Mrs Ellis and Mrs Russell, we are looking forward to a successful year, full of hard work and smiles!.
Ms. Preston, Miss Reynolds and Mrs Cunningham welcome you and your children to Year 3. Together with the support of Mrs. Russell and Mrs Ellis, we are looking forward to a successful year, full of hard work and smiles.
Topics for the Year
Terms 1 and 2: The Stone Age and The Bronze Age, rocks and settlements.
Terms 3 and 4: Iron Age, Mountains and Roman Culture.
Terms 5 and 6: The Romans' rise to and fall from power and a study of Italy.
Your child will have an outdoor Games lesson and a PE / Hall session each week this term. Mr Haines will be taking 3P for outdoor games this year. The sessions will be as follows:
- Outdoor games: Tuesday afternoon
- Indoor games: Friday morning
Please ensure your child's PE kit is in a suitable bag and that each item is labelled clearly with their full name and class. Please remember that your child will need the new navy Davington P.E kit in order to participate in lessons. Plain navy joggers and a school jumper will be allowed for winter. Your child will also need a pair of trainers for outside Games sessions. In Year 3 we do not swim in the first term, only in term 6. If your child has long hair, please ensure that they have their hair tied back on P.E days and that earrings are removed.
Volunteer Readers
Reading is such an important aspect of learning and we would really value your support in this. If you are able to give just an hour of your week, to come and read with our children, we would be incredibly grateful. Hopefully you would enjoy the experience too. This could even be simply coming into school at 2:15 instead of 3:15 and reading with children for that hour. Please come and speak to us if you are interested.
It is important that children drink plenty of water throughout the day. In order to do this, children need a named water bottle that they can use during the day. These can be bought in the school office. Please ensure your child brings water not squash.
We ask the children to bring their reading book and reading record to school each day and put in their tray. All children need to read for 10 minutes every day with an adult if possible. Children who have read at least three times in one week will be given a sticker on a chart. Once the children have six stickers, they are awarded their Bronze reading award and bookmark, moving towards a silver and gold award.
You can support your child further in their reading by asking them questions about their book e.g. 'What do you think will happen next?' If you need any help moving your child on with their reading, please come and see us so we can offer support. They will earn reading rewards for reading three times a week which must be signed by an adult.
All children will receive spellings to learn on a Wednesday. These will be linked to our spelling work in class and written on a spelling sheet. They will practise their spellings in the morning in class and then take them home to practise in the evening with your support. Please remind your child to bring their spelling sheet in each day. Spelling tests will be taken on Mondays. Little and often is the best way to approach learning new spellings. Five to ten minutes every night works better than trying to learn them in one go.
Homework books
As in year 2, children will be asked to complete a weekly task in their homework book. We try to link these tasks to the work we have done in class and will set activities that allow you to work with your child. Please let your child take the lead in this. We would like the end product to be your child's work so we can celebrate what they have achieved. Feel free to record in the book however your child wishes (photos, pictures, writing etc). Homework is set on Wednesday and due back on Monday (as are the spellings). We would also like the children to create a shoebox project this term. The task will be to design and make a Stone Age scene which might include a cave/hut, cave paintings, berries, Stone Age animals, clothes and weapons. This project will be due on Friday 8th November 2019.
Break Time Snacks
Key Stage Two children can bring in 20p for a Fruit token from our Fruit Café. Fruit tokens can be bought on the school gate each morning. Alternatively, children can bring their own fruit which can be kept in class until break time. Please refer to the Parent Handbook for advice on snacks for the children as we promote healthy eating within our school.
If you have any questions, concerns or good news to share about your child, please feel welcome to see us before school or on the playground.

John (Program #19) – The Need of the Dying – Life's Healing
The Spirit of Life imparts the divine life into our whole being to defeat death, to heal us from our dying condition, and to make us a being full of the life of God.
We've been examining the marvelous and well-known cases in John 3 and 4 of the moral and righteous teacher Nicodemus, then the thirsty sinful woman that the Lord encountered in Samaria. Today we're dealing with the royal official's dying son at the end of chapter 4.

The Future of Medicine Lies in Customisation of this kind
Why Personalised Healthcare is so important?
'It is more important to know what sort of person has a disease than what sort of Disease a person has.' This verdict on the importance of gearing one's healing efforts to the individual patient rather than the disease was uttered by Hippocrates, the most famous physician of antiquity.
The modern term for this approach is 'Personalised Healthcare'.
Some 2,400 years after Hippocrates, it is driving a genuine revolution based on the scientific realisation that individuals are different – and so are diseases.
Personalised Healthcare aims to provide targeted therapies tailored to the inherited or acquired risk factors displayed by different subgroups of patients. The foundations for this new, highly sensitive approach are the findings produced by modern research; research that is able to trace the origins of a disease back to its molecular causes and thus supply spectacular insights into the complexity of the factors that lead to disease.
The research work of the last few years has many important successes to its credit. Today, many patients are receiving individual diagnoses and targeted therapies.
Headlong progress in the sciences related to molecular biology – genetics, genomics, and proteomics is broadening the foundations for progress of this kind, so it is safe to predict that in the near future many more patients will benefit from such new approaches.
Personalised Healthcare gets down to the molecular roots of disease
What makes individuals so similar and at the same time so unique? And what exactly goes on in the body when people are healthy or sick?
These questions have always intrigued scientists, but it took molecular biology to come up with the really important answers. Major milestones were the discovery of the double helix (the structure of the 'life molecule 'DNA) in the early 1950s and the sequencing of the human genome at the beginning of the new millennium.
Today, findings from new branches of research like genomics or proteomics enable researchers to refine their understanding of diseases at the molecular level.
This is the basis for innovative strategies combining new diagnostic procedures and ongoing biotechnological progress to fight diseases more effectively than ever before.

You would have all read about the (in)famous "Heartbleed" bug. While there are a lot of articles floating around to educate you on what it is and what it can do, there's none solving an app developer's questions. So, here it is.
Heartbleed bug a.k.a an OpenSSL vulnerability CVE-2014-0160 was discovered on April 7 2014. This bug was introduced in OpenSSL version 1.0.1 and is out there since March 2012. OpenSSL, one of the pillars of the encryption on internet and the target victim of the bug, is widely used encryption library and is used to provide secure connections between servers and the clients. This bug has affected nearly all the major web service providers who use HTTPS to provide customers secure access to their services. It can potentially reveal the sensitive data about your customers without leaving any traces and needs to be fixed at the earliest. Amazon, Facebook, Google, Yahoo are working or have already issued the patches to this bug.
If you are a developer of the mobile and web services and managing an HTTPS server, here's what you need to do to secure your server and your customer's data.
1. Upgrade OpenSSL library
On Ubuntu systems:
sudo apt-get install –only-upgrade libssl1.0.0
You can recheck using the following command.
sudo openssl version -a
If the "build on" date is Apr 7 or later then your server has been patched for "Heartbleed bug". Please reboot your server and then follow the remaining three steps.
2. Revoke all the SSL certificates on this server
3. Regenerate all SSL private keys and certificates
4. Recommend your customers to change their passwords
Very rarely it happens, that a bug can affect the core foundation of internet. This is one of the few such cases. All the major web service providers are putting together the fixes in place and it is widely feared that it will take months for nearly all the web service providers providing HTTPS services to apply these fixes and make the customer data secure.
It is also highly recommended to ask your customers to change their passwords as customers typically use same passwords across different web services and while you may have secured your service but other web services might not have done the same.
Have fun fixing the heart!!!

Nike is releasing two new colorways of the OFF WHITE x Nike Vapormax sometime this February or March. Although we saw the Top Ten collection with many shoes we remember like, the Jordan 1s, the Vapormaxs, the Hyperdunks and the Air Prestos. We saw many people especially wearing the OFF WHITE Hyperdunks, such as Draymond Green and Devin Booker. The shoe is going to sell out quickly but, the resale value of it may not be as high because the Top Ten collection is very limited but dropping more shoes makes it have a lesser value. This is similar to the situation of Jordan and dropping to many Jordans but, on a smaller scale. The price for them is 250$ which is not surprising since it is a colab with OFF WHITE. So, the shoe overall deserves a 9/10.
