The forgotten generation about to rule the roost
Which generation is poised to make the biggest mark on the workplace in the next few years, as Baby Boomers retire?
If you believe the acres of analysis devoted to the topic, you might be thinking it's Generation Y, otherwise known as the Millennials.
Or perhaps you're thinking about the impact their younger cousins, Generation Z, might have as they graduate from school and university and join the working world.
But a new study suggests it's actually Generation X, those born roughly between 1965 and 1981. That is, the generation book-ended by the Sex Pistols and Nirvana. Full disclosure: that's me.
The Global Leadership Forecast 2018 - a three-way collaboration with EY, Development Dimensions International and The Conference Board – incorporates data from more than 25,000 leaders and 2500 HR professionals in 54 countries including Australia.
The report finds members of Gen X, with an average of 20 years' experience in the workplace, are "primed to take on nearly every important leadership role in organisations". We already hold just over half of leadership roles globally and will continue to grow into more senior positions.
Much has been made of the fact that Millennials are "digital natives" but Gen Xers were early technology adopters and gamers who've embraced technology. Gen X also use social media more habitually than any other generation, according to Nielsen data cited in the report.
Fifty-four per cent of Generation X leaders are digitally savvy, on pace with Millennials at 56 per cent, the report says. But Gen X has the edge in more conventional leadership skills such as driving execution and building talent.
Once upon a time, Gen X were branded "slackers" but then again, bemoaning the youth of today has been in vogue at least since the time of Socrates in ancient Greece.
There's no doubt that Millennials have captured the public imagination in a way Gen X never did. If you search Google for "Generation X" there are about 3.3 million results, compared with 11.5 million for "Baby Boomers" and 48.8 million for "Millennials" (plus another 5.9 million for the synonymous "Generation Y").
And if you look at Google trends data for Australia or globally, there are also millions more people searching for material on Millennials or Gen Y than either Gen X or the Baby Boomers.
In the US, a Pew Research report from 2014 described Gen X as "America's neglected 'middle child'", and the same could be said here.
Why is Gen X overlooked?
First, it's a smaller generation than either the Baby Boomers or the Millennials.
Part of that is demographics. The Baby Boomers are named for the baby boom at the end of the Second World War, and Millennials are another demographic bulge - many of them being the children of the Boomers.
But Generation X is also smaller because of the arbitrary boundaries between generations. If the Baby Boomers are born 1945 to 1964, that's almost 20 years. Millennials / Gen Y are born from 1982 to 2000 – that's 18 years. Gen X is born between 1965 and 1981 – that's 16 years.
Second, Generation X has spent their entire working lives in the shadow of the Baby Boomers. The report notes that the rise to leadership for Gen X has happened slowly. Gen X leaders received an average of 1.2 promotions in the past five years, compared with 1.6 for Millennials and 1.4 for Baby Boomers.
"Baby Boomers occupied higher-level leadership roles longer in their careers and held off for later retirement," the report says. "Meanwhile Millennials surged into the workforce eagerly, and although this younger generation has often been unfairly labelled as impatient and promotion-needy, perceptions have an impact".
The report says Gen X are less likely than Millennials to leave their organisations to seek advancement, but more likely to seek external coaching and training. Meanwhile, Millennials are more likely to (rightly or wrongly) rate their own intellectual curiosity higher than other generations, seek feedback and input from colleagues and mentors, and want "stretch" assignments.
Millennials, Generation X and Baby Boomers generally agree about the challenges they feel most and least prepared to tackle. The report suggests some variance between the three groups is about life stage and experience, rather than innate differences.
In some ways it's like Gen X is the Prince Charles of the workforce, waiting for the Queen to retire or pass on. But don't forget: Prince Charles is the archetypal Baby Boomer and his kids are Millennials.
But Baby Boomers won't work forever, so the workforce will soon look very different. Nevermind (ahem), Gen X is ready for it.

Our Saturday at the 2019 PGA Championship
What We Liked, Didn't Like and Who We Saw
What We Liked
Chase Sapphire Club – At PGA events, there are always opportunities to get upgraded hospitality tickets. At the PGA Championship, these tickets are called "The Wanamaker Club". There are several other hospitality tents which can cost up to several thousand dollars for clubhouse access. If you don't feel like spending extra money for upgraded tickets and hospitality experiences, you may be in luck. Large corporations like Chase and AMEX usually have a free hospitality tent for specific card members. Chase had a "Chase Sapphire" tent for their card members. We went over to the tent and waited about 45 minutes in line to get in as they have a capacity limit. The wait in line was well worth it as it was "free" to get in. By "free" we mean except for the $99 for the annual cost of the credit card. In the tent was upgraded food selections like shrimp tacos/Burgers/Grilled Chicken Sandwiches', etc. which were different than the standard concessions, a full bar with small lines, air conditioning, couches (where Steph and Lia were able to relax and we could feed her comfortably), complimentary Water/Gatorade/Soda/Iced tea and upgraded bathrooms which was clutch! No lines and No porta-potties for us! The elevated tent had seating and standing room along the side of the 15th fairway where you could see drives come in and then approaches to the green. The only thing you couldn't see was the green as it was about 20 feet up from the fairway. All in all, well worth it. Be sure to look into the venues for opportunities like this. (Photos below – View from the balcony at Chase Saphire Club on the 15th fairway and Inside the tent)
The Scenery/Course Architecture – Going into the weekend, I didn't know much about the course other than it had hosted a few previous US Open's and that Tiger had OBVIOUSLY won there. Following every golf social media outlet gave me a good idea of what some of the holes looked like, but like all things on social media, they looked doctored up with filters. Seeing it in real life was an amazing experience. No photo can show the true magnitude of the hills and valleys at Bethpage Black. The fescue, bunkers, green and fairway shape was immaculate. Just about every tee box and green had a severe elevation to it that required a good set up shoes for traction (which I wasn't wearing…). You were able to see many holes from certain vantage points which was awesome. This allowed you to see the volume of people lining the fairways/greens. I only hope I can make it back to Bethpage and tee it up in the near future and probably shoot 100 and be happy about it.
(Photos below – Left: Tee shot from hole #4. Right: Looking out to #17 from the road crossing from hole #1 to #2)
Family Time – Nothing beats a day with family on the course. Though it was a little expensive to cloth with PGA merch, feed and keep us all hydrated, it was priceless. Those that don't have their own child won't quite understand. I was nervous when we got close to the greens/tee boxes that 9-month old Lia would start crying and force a player to step back off of a putt or a drive, but thankfully it didn't happen. A full day outing with a baby may seem like it would be stressful, but Lia and Steph were champs. They made it all day and kept up with me wheeling around the course like the crazed golf fan I am as we walked over 10 miles that day. It was a great experience for my family and me to be on the course and see some of the world's best. We will have memories to last a lifetime from it. Lia has now attended 2 of 4 majors. 1st being the 2018 US Open at Shinnecock won by Brooks and the 2nd, this year at Bethpage, ALSO won by Brooks… I called into PGA Tour radio and talked with Dave Marr on "Mornings with Marr" about our Phil Mickelson experience (See below) and he shouted out on air to Brooks Koepka saying, "get this family some Masters tickets because this baby is your good luck charm!" Brooks, DM me on Insta if you're reading this… We're working to get Lia the grand slam and would prefer to get a trip to Augusta in before heading overseas for The Open… Just saying.
Seeing The Players Up Close – Seeing the players up close is so cool. It's such a different experience than in photos and on TV. You can truly see how big (or small) the players are. Tony Finau is a big boy, Molinari is my size (5'6"), Brooks looks much bigger than he really is, and I can't really remember Phil because I blacked out when he came over to us. I also liked getting close to the tee box and seeing the ball come off their driver heads. You can hear the ball breaking through the air and sounds like a rocket. Plus you get to see the ball flight and carry of a 300+ yard drive.
(Photos below – Left: Brooks Koepka. Right: Francesco Molinari.)
The Merch Tent Set Up – Shout out to whoever engineered/designed the PGA Merchandise tent. They definitely knew what they were doing. It was sectioned off perfectly and was about 60,000 sq. feet. I was impressed as last year at the US Open, a ton of the items I wanted were sold out and I ended up buying leftover stuff online. The tent was our first stop and we spent at least an hour in there, most of which was NOT in the checkout line. The checkout line looked to have about 300 people in it and we breezed through in about 15 minutes as they had ~50 registers operating. We were able to get Steph, the baby, myself and some things for friends/family and have it shipped home, for free! They did have a bag check so you didn't have to lug stuff around all day which is awesome. As we were about to check the bag, we looked over and saw free shipping for Chase Sapphire card members (you did have to pay if you weren't a card member). This turned out to be a key time saver when leaving as we didn't have to wait in another line to get our bag to go get in another line for the shuttle to leave. Well done PGA!
What We Didn't Like
Rickie's New Haircut – So, my wife's favorite player is Rickie Fowler which led us to searching for him most of the day… I'm still unsure as to why he's her favorite player (as he looks nothing like me so there can't be a physical attraction) and I can only speculate that it's because of his eclectic style, being younger and a crowd favorite. We finally saw him in between 11 and 12 where he was not happy after making a bogey. Totally understandable. We were super close and the only thing I noticed was his lack of sideburns and length of the back of his hair. Very interesting cut that looked mullet-esque to me. Not so much a euro-mullet like the soccer players but more like a mullet-mullet. Steph agreed the haircut is unusual but still likes him. I may try and pull the cut off next time and see how much she likes it on me…
Long Lines For Beverages – How much of your life have you spent waiting in line for beer at an event? Hopefully not that much because you would have a sad, sad life… Kidding, but if the PGA can figure out how to get 300 people through a merch line in 10 mins, they should be able to move a beer line just as fast. Somehow I ended up stuck in a line for over 30 mins waiting for a Mich. Ultra right as DJ's group was coming to the hole we were on. Thankfully it was an elevated platform Concession stand so I got to see his approach in, but come on. Split up the bar and beer lines! If people want to wait for a mixologist to concoct their drink, wait in another line and have beer only in another with options Heavy or Light and 1,2 or 3 to take with you! Keep it moving, we got golf to watch!
Some Obnoxious Fans – Several PGA players have come out publicly and had issues with fans at tournaments. I truly don't think it has as much to do with alcohol consumption as I do with the age of social media. I say this because unless you slug 6 Mich. Ultra's at $12 a pop one after another, you're not going to be belligerently drunk and chirp the players. I heard multiple college-aged kids say, "Bro, I can't get drunk here", likely because the volume you can consume is a casual pace compared to partying. The thing I think leading to fans overstepping the boundaries is getting a video to go viral on social. I mean I understand it more than anyone as we were involved in a viral video with Phil Mickelson, but he acknowledged us, not us yelling to him and the video was picked up by the PGA Tour. At the end of the day, people are people and all people have opinions which you can't control.
Course Layout and Our Walking Route – Bethpage was not your traditional circular front 9 holes starting and finishing at the clubhouse and then the second 9 doing the same. It goes 9 out and 9 back. A long thin piece of property makes it tougher to see all of the holes as you have an allotted amount of time to see players and it's harder to keep your bearings for where you are on the course. I take full responsibility for not doing my research and understanding that walking the original route we did in 1-9 before stopping for food was a bad option. What we should have done, was walk 18-10 as that would have allowed us to see all players on the course instead of walking 1-9 and thinking we could outwalk the players. It ended up taking us at least 3 holes to reach the next group without rushing too much around the course. I guess I can't say I didn't like the course layout as much as my poor route planning.
Who We Saw
Below is many but not all of the players we saw taken with our person iPhone's which explains some of the poor quality. Though it was poor quality, it shows how close we were to some of the players. President Trump look-alike might have been the funniest thing we saw all day also haha.
That was our weekend at the PGA Championship at Bethpage Black. Hopefully if we hear from Brooks Koepka soon we'll be gearing up for The Masters in 2020… Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more content!

Palace exec says SUCs continue to receive annual budget increases (Philippines News Agency)
Malacanang on Thursday maintained that the Aquino administration has put priority on state colleges and universities (SUCs) as shown by the increases in their budget in the last five years.
In a briefing, Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr. said allocation for SUCs this year amounted to Php43.3 billion, up by about 81.9 percent from the Php23.8 billion in 2010.
He cited in particular that budget of the University of the Philippines (UP), which recently faced scarcity in dormitory rooms, rose by 90 percent to Php13.1 billion from the Php6.9 billion in 2010.
He said the UP administration has said that it has addressed the lack of dormitory rooms and assured that they would ensure availability of facilities for UP students this school year.
He also cited that UP Diliman Chancellor Michael has attributed the problem of lack of dormitory rooms to rise in the availments among freshmen students, which rose by 900.
Relatively, Coloma said budget of SUCs are increased based on general needs and roadmap to excellence of the institutions.
He also said that SUCs have other sources of funds based on their own initiatives.
"Pero sa pangkalahatan, malinaw na naitaas ng Aquino administration 'yung pondo para sa state universities and colleges as a whole at para sa University of the Philippines, in particular," he added. (PNA)

Graphene Material, AMOLED Displays Are Among the Most Buzzed for Galaxy S6
Samsung was quite proud of its flagship S line-up devices. However, taste got bitter through the recent release S5; hence the champion manufacturer is all set to get back the lost glory for the S line-up devices through upcoming S6. To be honest, there is no official announcement on this. Especially, after Samsung setting mind to release one flagship in a year. This looks nowhere before MWC.
Samsung Galaxy S6: Specs
Loads of murmurings are in air for the S6 specs. Rumours keep coming, however, the more it gets closer to the day of release the more it gets solid.
Undoubtedly, the Galaxy S6 will be sporting a Super AMOLED display. Needless to mention about the mammoth size, still, as per the churn outs the upcoming Galaxy S6 might sport a 5.5 inches display. The best part of the process is that it will be coming with the combination of 2160 x 3840 pixels resolution.
Samsung is known for its stylish devices and this time to make it more terrific the manufacturer plans for coming with curved edges.
Design and Construct: Graphene body will be interesting
The biggest factor for which a manufacturer like Samsung has also to face the critics is for Galaxy S5's plastic frame. This spec definitely needs to be redefined this time with Galaxy S6.If you are expecting again those all metal frame, then Samsung is not among those who put the same wine in new bottle. Buzz is that the S6 will be using Graphene as material. Recently some new images have surfaced through rumour mills, but we can't really guess about the material just through pictures.
Tizen? Android 5.0 looks more confirmed
People are expert in connecting here and there like relationships. You must have come across the Tizen and Samsung news, but don't worry your favourite Android Lollipop will be there with the Galaxy S6 again. Yes, a better interface is quite sure something like the latest edition of TouchWiz interface.
Performance and Storage
So far Qualcomm 64 bit processor is most expected for the upcoming Galaxy S6. We all know Android Lollipop is the platform that can deal with 64 bit architecture in a finest way than the others. Talking of the latest news, reportedly Samsung might release two different editions of S6; one is with Snapdragon 80, and the other is Snapdragon 810. Buzz is that these two variants will differ not only in terms of price, but also with the destination of release.
However, the native Exynos 7420 can't be ignored as well. Exynos is of the 64 bit architecture as well running through eight cores, four of those will be Cortex A53, and four of Cortex-A57. The processor is most likely to be mated with 4 GB RAM.
Samsung reportedly is looking for three different editions of devices like 32 GB, 64 GB, and 128 GB.
In terms of snappers, nothing latest is there except that earlier speculation of 20 MP at its back with better resolution. Earlier it was said that the S6 will be having 16 MP snapping option with improved specs. For your selfies there will be reportedly a 5 MP front facing option with image stabilization.
Author Bio: Prakash Thakur is a writer, blogger, who has keen eye on news, rumors and all the unusual stuff that happens around Best Galaxy S6 cases.

Around what feels like a thousand years ago in what feels like someone else's story from another far-flung cultural Galaxy and most certainly not mine, I was a full-time musician, engineer, producer and record label owner.
I've been primarily playing guitar and a few other various instruments since I was 7 and attempting to write my own music since I was around 12. And since I have this show here and needed music, well, why not use this huge back-catalog of material I'm sitting on. I have hundreds of songs just waiting to be pillaged.
So, that's what I did... kinda-sorta...
I actually started writing again for the show a few years ago and now have dozens more songs. So thank you for taking the time to listen to my music. We should all listen more. To everything and to everyone around us and especially, to our hearts. ~♥AA

World Cup 2018: VAR has changed the World Cup – stats reveal fewer fouls, less shots but more late drama
Group stage stats show staggering difference made to games by the controversial review system
GAMES at the 2018 World Cup are being dragged out by VAR, while teams are committing fewer fouls and taking fewer shots, according to the statistics from the group stage.
Compared to the five World Cup group stages in the last 20 years, 2018's games lasted two minutes more on average, while tactical approaches are ditching long shots for set pieces in their pursuit of goals.
The statistics from the 2018 group stage, compiled by the Times, show that the average length of the 48 games was 97 minutes and 16 seconds, compared to an average of 95 minutes 13 seconds in the previous five tournaments.
VAR has dominated the discussion pre- and post-games, climaxing after it was used FOUR times during Iran's 1-1 draw with Portugal.
Morocco's Nordin Amrabat called the system "b******t" on live TV after Iago Aspas's goal was given on review to snatch a 2-2 draw for Spain against the Africans.
And with numbers for shots and fouls down too, it appears that VAR is having the undesired impact many fans feared - disrupting the flow of games and meaning fewer in-game incidents.
Just three red cards were handed out, down from the average of 13 and far away from a shocking 18 in the 2006 group stage, with fouls down 17 per cent.
When fouls are committed however, teams are making them count, with 43 per cent of goals from set pieces.
Twenty-four penalties were awarded, smashing 2002's record of 18, with ten needing VAR before being given.
The time added on by reviews can be used to team's advantages of course, and there have been 20 goals scored after the clock hits 90 minutes, compared to an average of six in the previous five World Cups.
Games saw 24.4 shots on average, down around three per game on previous tournaments.
And teams are waiting longer through their build-up play before letting fly, with 58 per cent of efforts taken from inside the 18-yard box in Russia.
That compares to an average of 49 per cent previously, showing a clear shift as phenomena such as Expected Goals (xG) continue to influence how teams approach attacks.
The drop in shots has inevitably meant fewer goals, with 122 in the 48 games compared to a record 136 four years ago.
Speaking yesterday, Pierluigi Collina, now Fifa's referee committee chairman, said conversations between referees during reviews could be broadcast live.
Both the Brazilian and Moroccan FAs have made official complaints to Fifa about the system at the World Cup, but Fifa say 99.3 per cent of the 335 decisions reviewed have produced the correct call.
Collina said: "Before running you have to walk. VAR does not stand for perfection, there will still be mistakes.
"But 99 per cent is very close to perfection."

Take the National Express when your life's in a mess
It'll make you smile.
My life isn't in a mess at all, however, it could have been a couple of weeks ago when I made the money saving decision to get the coach to London. (Note – I had a fantastic weekend seeing the people I love, sharing a drink and a laugh, and seeing the Picasso exhibition at the Tate and the Frida Kahlo exhibition at the V&A.)
Getting a return ticket for the coach saved me a grand total of £10. We are all about saving money for travel – see our blog post here: 6 Simple Tips for Saving Money for Travel
Those spare ten pound notes can really add up – so it wasn't a difficult decision to make. Usually I would get the train, but with prices flying up on the rails, this seemed like the best way to get to my destination.
First of all, the coach was delayed by an hour and a half, which I was obviously not very happy about. However, once we were all aboard, the stress of the journey really began. Before the engine started a passenger asked the coach driver when we would arrive. His response?
'Get your stuff, and get off.'
Obviously other passengers began to complain, and the passenger in question refused to move. I have never witnessed such shocking behaviour by staff – they were all aggressive and rude with the customers, saying things like 'We don't get paid enough for this' and shrugging their shoulders when asked basic predictable questions. I was genuinely scared to ask when the coach might arrive, even though I really needed to know as I had plans. National Express – if you're reading this, it's worth having a chat with your staff and seeing what their happiness levels are. Something serious seems to be up!
Once we left, I began to feel very coach sick. Obviously – not ideal, and that's nobodies issue but my own, but it certainly didn't add to my experience. Then, the lock on the toilet broke. No-one went to the toilet apart from one very angry person, who used it around every twenty minutes. While he used the toilet, he yelled at the man who happened to be sitting opposite the door, calling him every name he could think of. This abusive man then sat down and lit up a cigarette, on the coach, despite the fact that there were children and, well, other human beings on board.
By the time we got into London the traffic was bad. Add another hour onto the journey – imagine a coach full of people scared to ask the arrival time and sitting in smoke – the person who lit the cigarette now telling everyone who would listen about the way he views the world (this included never saving money in case you die tomorrow…the opposite of how we feel!).
I arrived in London, finally, after an entire journey experience that lasted around six hours. The train takes an hour and a half. Next time? I'll pay that £10 extra. As a side note, I spoke to National Express about the experiences that I had. They kindly gave me a free return ticket to anywhere in the UK – but I'm still not sure I'm actually going to use it. I don't know if I can deal with another six hours of UK coach travel!

One of the simplest ways to measure the success of your online display campaigns is to track click through conversions (CTCs), measuring customers who click an ad and then convert as a direct result. However, advertisers who also track view through conversions (VTCs) are able to measure those customers who didn't click on an ad at the time they saw it, but did convert later.
In a recent study of 1,000 digital marketers in the US, we saw that the vast majority of marketers (93%) attribute view through conversions. Most attribute 10–25% of VTCs (within a 30-day window) and 100% of CTCs towards their campaign measurement.
Even if a customer gets distracted and doesn't click an ad right away—or prefers to follow up on your offer in a different browser or on a different day—the ad has still served as a compelling reminder of your brand and may lead to return site visits.
We've taken a look at some common myths about view through conversions:

Roughly a month ago, we reported on how the Every Student Succeeds Act puts a new emphasis on students in foster care by requiring that states report disaggregated data about their academic performance. But after the release of the draft ESSA accountability rules last month, a dispute is emerging over another issue related to foster care students—the cost of getting them to and from school.

1. In a large saucepan, brown pork with onion. Stir in cumin, chili powder, pepper garlic powder and oregano.
2. Add beans, corn, broth and green chilies. Bring to a boil.
3. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
4. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours.
My family loves this recipe! I always make a double batch for our family of 5. I add extra oregano and cumin to taste and often stir in pumpkin puree or cubed butternut squash to give us our beta-carotene. Diced avocado is a nice topping for this chili.

Sustainability to the Core
Sustainability to the Core
CAMPAIGN: Together, Creating Sustainable Value
CONTENT: Blog
Goldcorp President and CEO, Chuck Jeannes, believes sustainable business practices enhance overall corporate performance by "doing well and doing good at the same time."
Goldcorp's recent amendment of the corporate pillar Growing Partnerships to become Growing Sustainability refines the company's commitment to partnerships that share fundamental principles of environmental stewardship and corporate social responsibility (CSR).
Six pillars together cascade from the company's core vision and values to guide the everyday actions of all employees across operations. Sustainability is both a foundational component and functional element that flows enterprise wide, from corporate governance, strategic direction, ethics and compliance, community relations, human resources health and safety, security, and of course environmental management and CSR.
Jerry Danni, appointed in January to the new positon of Senior Vice President, Sustainability, says "We're working to truly embody our vision of Together Creating Sustainable Value, at all levels of the organization. Historically, the various components of sustainability, whether it was CSR, health and safety or environment, have been viewed as a separate responsibility – as 'someone else's job.' What we've done is incorporate sustainability into our core business at all levels, so people understand they have a role to play in implementing our sustainability program."
The 2014 launch of Goldcorp's Sustainability Excellence Management System (SEMS) – an integrated strategy for Safety and Health, Environment, CSR and Security – was the foundation for setting standards and measurements. SEMS is a framework for organizational structure, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes and resources for implementing and maintaining performance throughout the mining cycle and global operations.
In less than a year, SEMS has resulted in more rigorous monitoring and reporting, while serving as a springboard for the new Water Stewardship Strategy which tailors use and conservation plans for every operation, with site-specific performance targets.
SEMS also enfolds Goldcorp's many Collaboration Agreements with First Nations, local and regional community initiatives, social and environmental reclamation projects, and the company's long-term Energy Strategy to increase efficiency by 15%, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20% and obtain at least 5% of energy from renewable sources by late 2016.
To date, much has been accomplished and even more is in the works says Danni. "We're always looking for new ways to improve our business performance in all areas. It's our obligation as a company to be more responsive to our shareholders, employees, partners and the communities where we operate so we can create a sustainable legacy for future generations."
To learn more about Goldcorp's SEMS initiatives, watch an interview with Jerry Danni at https://youtu.be/VRaUwqssz2I and visit our 2014 Sustainability Report. http://csr.goldcorp.com/2014/strength-governance.php?article=3.

the February Exeat, eighteen Sixth Form pupils from Oundle School took part in
the annual trip to the American Association for the Advancement of Science
(AAAS) conference held in San Jose California.
President Gerald R. Fink gave the opening address and developed the theme of
the conference - Innovations, Information
and Imaging - and the focus on transformations across all disciplines of
science and technology brought about by rapid progress in organising,
visualising and analysing data.
Science Programme included listening to talks on The Online Revolution: Learning Without Limits, Post-Evolutionary
Biology: Design of Novel Protein Structures, Functions and Assemblies, Optical
Deconstruction of Fully Assembled Biological Systems and Finding Your Inner Fish. In addition
pupils selected from some 100+ themed symposia with multiple talks on topical
themes including Neutrinos to Exoplanets, Cannabis and Medicine via
Chronic Pain, Industrial Chemistry
to Neuroimaging: The Study of Human Brain
Function, Privacy and the Internet of
Things to the Communication of
Science, Modelling Biospheres to Sustainability and New Agriculture.
Undermaster, Physics teacher and Trip organiser, Anthony Burrows commented, "All the pupils found something of
significant interest and took full advantage of the interesting range of talks
and workshops on careers in Science. Their
enthusiasm for the science was most rewarding."
the five day conference the group moved around Silicon Valley and their
programme included a visit to Google, a bus tour of San Francisco, visits to
the award winning Alcatraz, Berkeley University, the Giant Redwoods at Muir
Woods, viewing the contrasting geology either side of the San Andreas fault.
Hugh Tomkins (17) commented, "The trip really broadened my horizons beyond the taught
curriculum. Despite currently studying for engineering, it gave me the chance
to engage with neuroscience, biochemistry, and geography. It was without a
doubt a collection of the most interesting academic talks I have ever
early April, building works are due to commence on the final development phase
of Oundle School's SciTec Campus, an award-winning
and innovative science complex, opened in 2007. This second and final
phase, incorporating both a brand new Mathematics department and a significant
refurbishment of the Patrick Engineering Centre, will link Science,
Mathematics, Design, Technology and Engineering both physically and
About Oundle School's new SciTec Campus
Since the days of the celebrated Headmaster F. W. Sanderson,
arguably the greatest educationalist of his age, Oundle has been recognised as one of the foremost
schools for science and engineering in the country. In 2007, SciTec, a major
and ground-breaking new science complex, opened, housing 16 state-of-the-art
laboratories. Oundle is now undertaking a large SciTec Campus development project
which will see a new Mathematics department built adjacent to
SciTec as well as a significant upgrade to the Design and Technology department
within the Patrick Engineering Centre.
Due for completion by September 2016, this development
will position Oundle at the heart of applying science and embrace developments
in new fields such as nanotechnology and mechatronics. It will enable
pupils to move
seamlessly from theory to practice and from pure science to the achievement of
a workable technology. All STEM
disciplines will be united both philosophically and physically, enabling pupils
to understand fully how all the different stages interact.
The current Patrick Centre will be extended
and exhaustively refurbished, re-launching as the Patrick Engineering Centre.
The current 'large projects' space for which Oundle is famous will be retained
but relocated, and a design laboratory for prototyping and design work will be
created, acoustically segregated from the practical facilities. A 'clean
laboratory' will be provided adjacent to the design laboratory, enabling
high-tech processes such as 3D printing and robotics to be deployed. In
addition to the large projects space, there will be four open-plan workshop
bays that will enable pupils to be taught in small groups whilst sharing fixed
machinery, as well as two new dedicated classrooms for design and theory that
will be easily accessible from the workshops.
The new Mathematics department will form the
major part of an extension to the current SciTec building, which was envisaged
as a future development of the original design. It will thereby complete the
original architectural aspiration of a grand entrance to the whole SciTec
Campus. An internal quadrangle will be created, giving equal status to all disciplines
as well as a proper regard to the newly-refurbished Adamson Centre opposite,
encouraging an interplay between Modern Languages and SciTec.
The extension will also provide two new
science project rooms adjacent to the current Biology and Chemistry
laboratories, enabling experiments and projects to be carried out over a longer
time-frame than is currently possible. This will bring particular benefits for
pupils working on Extended Project Qualifications (EPQs).
Information on Oundle School
School is situated in the quintessentially English market town of Oundle, about
90 miles north of London. The School's buildings, dating from the 17th to the
21st centuries, are dispersed throughout the town, which is, to a large extent,
its campus.
The School's history dates back
to 1556, when Sir William Laxton, Master of the Worshipful Company of Grocers
and Lord Mayor of London, endowed and re-founded the original Oundle Grammar
School, of which he was a former pupil. In 1876, the Grocer's Company divided
the School into two parts; Laxton Grammar School, primarily for the inhabitants
of the town, and Oundle School, primarily for pupils from further afield. In
2000, the Grocers' Company reunited the two schools under the common name of Oundle
School and retained the name of Laxton for the day House.
At the beginning of the 20th
century, Oundle was put firmly on the map of leading English public schools by
its most famous headmaster, F W Sanderson, who established Oundle's reputation
as one of the great science and engineering schools, a reputation still
renowned today. In 2007, SciTec - a major and ground-breaking new science
complex - opened, housing 16 state-of-the-art laboratories. The School is now
embarking on a large SciTec Campus development project which will see a new Mathematics department constructed adjacent to SciTec as well
as a significant upgrade to the Design and Technology department within the
Patrick Engineering Centre. Due for completion in September 2016, the development
will unite Science, Mathematics, Design, Technology and Engineering both physically and philosophically,
enabling pupils to
move seamlessly from theory to practice and from pure science to the
achievement of a workable technology. A concurrent Sports Masterplan will
upgrade sporting facilities across the School over the next few years,
including a new 1st XI cricket pavilion due to open April 2015.
There are currently 1100 pupils
on roll at Oundle School, with 850 boarders and 250 day pupils. Also within the
Corporation of Oundle School is Laxton Junior School, a day School for children
aged 4 to 11.

Some of you may have noticed a "tag, you're it" game that's happening on Facebook where a friend tags you and asks you to name 10 books that made some kind of lasting impression on you, for whatever reason.
My friend, Barbara, tagged me, and I participated.
It's not easy to identify ONLY 10 books that have impacted me, but I stepped up and played the game.
Now I'm asking you to do the same.
In the comments area, please share with readers 10 books that have made an impression on you. It doesn't matter what the reason is–it could have been the time in your life when you read it; it could have been the subject matter; or it could have just been the tremendous writing.
I broke the rules and named 12 books, and I probably haven't even scratched the surface. I'll name my books and tell you a brief reason why. On Facebook, you don't have to say why; you just have to name your books.
So, here goes nothing…
"Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen (Do I even need to explain this one?)
"The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane" by Kate DiCamillo (About selfishness…and why it pays NOT to be selfish)
"A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens (The message, the writing, the characters…I LOVE THIS BOOK)
"The Shell Seekers" by Rosamunde Pilcher (This book made me want to be a writer)
"The DaVinci Code" by Dan Brown (Just couldn't put it down, and loved some of the thoughts about Mary Magdalene)
"Ethan Frome" by Edith Wharton (Stays with you; dark, dreary, and sad)

Raptors 94 Pistons 64
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Andrea Bargnani scored 21 points, Hedo Turkoglu added 11 points and a season-best 11 assists and the Toronto Raptors beat the shorthanded Detroit Pistons 94-64 on Wednesday night, matching the lowest point total in franchise history.
Detroit, which has lost six straight, played without Ben Gordon (ankle), Richard Hamilton (hamstring) and Tayshaun Prince (back). Charlie Villanueva went 0-of-7 from the field trying to play through a foot injury.
Jarrett Jack added 14 points for Toronto, while Chris Bosh had 12 points and nine rebounds.
Reserve Will Bynum had 12 points for Detroit, which shot 28 per cent from the field. The starters were a combined 11-of-42 as the Pistons finished 12 points below its previous season low.

Over the last few months, we've had a lot of women come forward and share stories of how (and in some cases, who) they were sexually harassed or assaulted. The response to the #MeToo movement…varied, to say the least. Some negative responders opted not to leave their vacation home in DeNile. Others vocalized Mike Pence's rule of women, which is to not be alone in the room with a woman without his wife holding his hand. Neither of these responses are helpful. Denial and shaming are exactly why victims don't come forward, and the "all women are sexual pieces of meat, so don't catch yourself alone in a room with them" theory doesn't help women in their careers.
People, if we want the assault accusations to stop, then we need to get better at teaching consent and respect. To get the conversation started, I would like to offer twelve tips for accepting the word "no."
1. If they don't want to have sex with you, don't have sex with them.
If you ignore this rule, you are committing a crime. Plain and simple.
2. Don't try to blackmail or persuade someone to have sex, especially if they've already said no.
Despite what bad chick flicks and horrible fan fiction will tell you, the cat and mouse chase isn't romantic. When people say no to sex, they mean it.
3. Ask.
Even if you don't think it's romantic, ask for permission before plowing through. Even if you think it's okay to move forward, just ask. Better to be safe than sorry.
4. Don't make the other party feel guilty for saying no.
Sex might be fun, but it's not the only way to pass the time. And if you are that upset, try the Scream into the Void app. It's actually quite therapeutic.
5. Catcalling isn't flattering.
Drooling over a stranger's body parts doesn't make you look like a cool dude, it makes you look like an entitled prick. So stop it.
6. Work is not an appropriate place for sexual activity.
Most workplaces see romantic relationships between coworkers as conflicts of interest anyway. So contrary to what Michael Scott will tell you, the workplace is neither a dating website nor a mating ground.
7. If they're underage, DON'T EVEN GO THERE.
It's illegal. It's disgusting. It's illegal. It's emotionally scarring. Did I mention it's illegal? Bottom line, just don't.
8. If they're drunk, unconscious, or otherwise incapacitated, they aren't in a great position to give consent.
True, we haven't quite worked out the "what if both parties are drunk?" problem yet. All the more reason to start the conversation now.
9. Regardless of what gender you are, you're allowed to say no to sex.
Even if you're halfway through, you can say no. And if you're asked for sexual favors you're uncomfortable with, you can refuse.
10. If you are guilty of assault or harassment, don't lie or make excuses.
Despite what some might think, human beings aren't allergic to humility. We all need to get better at making smart choices as well as taking responsibility for our actions. And sometimes, that means admitting we did something wrong, accepting the consequences for those choices, and taking steps to make sure we don't do it again. The more we work on it, the better we can get at it.
11. Don't support people who've been accused.
Not only does it make you look bad, but it enforces an environment where victims can't come forward. If there's no weight to the accusations, then there's no harm in investigating them. Better to investigate a hundred potential lies than to ignore one undeniable truth. He might be the nicest person you know, but if he's guilty of a crime then he's guilty of a crime.
12. Bottom line, don't be a jerk.
Enough said.

TSGT William C. Black
TSGT William C. Black is one of those men about whom we know very little. Assigned from the replacement depot to I Company 116th Infantry on 29 Oct 1944 as a SSG, William was promoted to TSGT on 3 Dec 1944 at which time he became a platoon sergeant. Wounded on 1 Mar 1945, TSGT Black was evacuated to hospital where he died of his wound(s) on 11 Mar 1945.
Friday, March 3, 2017
PFC Herman Eugene Davis
We don't know when Herman entered service but it appears that he might have been assigned to I Company 116th Infantry prior to the D-Day landing. He was promoted to PFC on 1 Oct 1944. It seems that he avoided injury until 24 Nov 1944 when he was sent to the hospital (non-battle injury). On 18 Dec 1944 he returned to the unit via the replacement depot. Seriously wounded on 27 Feb 1945 he was again evacuated to the hospital. He died of his wounds on 3 Mar 1945.
In 1949 his body was returned to his family and he was buried in the Crowell Cemetery in Crowell, Texas.
SSG Karl Henry Metz
SSG Karl Henry Metz, b. 3 Oct 1916 - d. 3 Mar 1945. Son of Frederick and Julia Ann (Snyder) Metz, Karl was born in Coshocton, Ohio. This is his high school photo from the 1930 Coshocton High School annual. He worked as a laborer and salesman in Philadelphia and St. Louis. It was in St. Louis where he met his wife, Helen D Gerhard a nurse from Hazleton, Pennsylvania. They were married before he went overseas where he served with both A and B Companies, 116th Infantry before being killed. SSG Metz is buried in the Ardennes American Cemetery. Helen never remarried and worked for many years in nursing in the Hazleton area before retiring and moving to Harrisburg where she died, aged 94, in 2011.

PVT Edward J. Konefal
|courtesy of Des Philippet
Edward was working in textile manufacture when he was drafted in June 1943. After his basic training he was sent to England and assigned to G Company 116th Infantry. He was likely assigned to the unit not very long before the D-Day amphibious assault that took place on 6 Jun 1944. He wasn't wounded that day but was wounded on 17 Jun 1944 and evacuated to hospital. Edward did not return to the unit until he was transferred from the replacement depot on 16 Feb 1945! PVT Konefal was killed in action on 1 Mar 1945.
PVT Konefal is buried in the Netherlands American Cemetery.
PFC Ignatz Anton Kobza
|courtesy of Des Philippett
He was a PVT in a local National Guard unit when he entered federal service in October 1940. It is possible that he joined G Company 116th Infantry before the regiment shipped out for England in September 1942. However, we do know that he was assigned to the unit prior to D-Day and participated in the amphibious assault on Omaha Beach on 6 Jun 1944. PFC Kobza was wounded on 8 Jun 1944 and evacuated to hospital. He was returned to the unit from the replacement depot on 25 Jul 1944. Ted was wounded again on 7 Aug 1944 in the battle for Vire and again evacuated to hospital. He returned to the unit from the replacement depot on Christmas Eve 1944. PFC Kobza was killed in action on 1 Mar 1945 at Giesenkirchen, Germany.
PFC Kobza was buried at the Netherlands American Cemetery.
PFC Claude T. Moore
|courtesy of Des Philippet
Claude was drafted in August 1943. After his training he was sent to Europe and transferred from the replacement depot to K Company 116th Infantry on 24 Jul 1944. He was wounded on 4 Aug 1944 near Vire, France and did not return to the unit until he was transferred from the replacement depot on 3 Jan 1945. PFC Moore was killed in action on 1 Mar 1945.
PFC Moore rests forever in the Netherlands American Cemetery.
PFC Benjamin Edwin Smith
Benjamin was drafted in June 1944, completed his basic military training and was then sent to the European theater in September 1944. However he was apparently not sent to a combat unit until he was transferred from the replacement depot to G Company 116th Infantry on 15 Dec 1944. PVT Smith was promoted to PFC on 2 Feb 1945. He was killed in action on 1 Mar 1945 near Mönchengladbach, Germany.
PFC Smith rests forever in the Netherlands American Cemetery.
His brother, Albert Edward Smith also served in the U.S. Army in the European theater.
SGT Anthony John Paradiso
He was still in that line of work when he was drafted in September 1942. After his basic military training he would not be sent to Europe until June 1944. SGT Paradiso was assigned to L Company 116th Infantry on 7 Aug 1944 joining the unit near Vire, France. He was wounded on 1 Sep 1944 and evacuated to hospital. He returned to the unit via the replacement depot on 3 Jan 1945. On 5 Feb 1945 SGT Paradiso was sent to the 29th Division training center on temporary duty for 7 days. He was wounded in the face on 27 Feb 1945 but remained on duty. SGT Paradiso was killed in action on 1 Mar 1945.
SGT Paradiso rests forever in the Netherlands American Cemetery.
1SG Alfred Baker McClure Jr.
|courtesy of Jay Kelly
Alfred was apparently working as a driver in Richmond, Virgina when he was drafted in May 1941. Assigned to the 116th Infantry at Camp Meade, Maryland, he must have demonstrated exceptional competence to be promoted to 1SG of C Company 116th Infantry before 6 Jun 1944. After training with the unit for the amphibious assault as part of the planned invasion of occupied Europe 1SG McClure participated in that effort.When there was some question about C Company's landing, 1st Sgt. Alfred B. McClure said that the first, second, and third assault sections sections arrived almost if not entirely intact. Alfred was wounded on 29 Jun 1944 and evacuated to hospital. He returned to C Company on 12 Aug 1944 serving as 1SG with that unit until 11 Sep 1944 when he was transferred to I Company 116th Infantry. He was transferred again on 21 Oct 1944, this time to B Company 116th Infantry. 1SG McClure was killed in action on 1 Mar 1944.
1SG McClure was repatriate in 1948 and re-interred in Fairfax City Cemetery in Fairfax, Virginia.
PVT Saul G. Sloane
|courtesy of PIN
Saul was drafted in October 1943. After his military training he was sent to Europe and transferred from the replacement depot to I Company 116th Infantry on 7 Aug 1944. Having already attained the rank of T5, there was apparently a need to cross-level him and he was transferred to L Company 116th Infantry on 11 Aug 1944. T5 Sloane fought with the unit until he was briefly captured on 29 Aug 1944 in the attack to liberate Brest but returned to duty after the Germans surrendered. He was injured and evacuated to hospital on 22 Sep 1944. T5 Sloane did not return to the unit until 22 Dec 1944 when he was reassigned as a rifleman. He then fought with the unit until killed in action in the vicinity of Monchengladbach, Germany on 1 Mar 1945.
T5 Sloane was repatriated in 1949 and re-interred in the Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery in San Diego, California.

Denkai opens subsidized veterinary clinic in Greeley
December 26, 2012
The Denkai Animal Sanctuary opens the doors to a new subsidized veterinary clinic in Greeley on Tuesday.
Denkai, a not-for-profit 501c3 organization, will provide veterinary services at subsidized costs to the public by way of ongoing foundation support and public contributions. The new clinic is not intended to compete with other area veterinarians, but instead it will seek to provide veterinary care for people who cannot usually afford health care for their pets, according to a Denkai news release.
The clinic is located at 1002 31st Ave., and will be open from 8 a.m.-5 p.m Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. For Tuesday, vaccinations will be the only service available for cats and dogs, without the option for spaying or neutering. After Tuesday, however, services will include spaying/neutering, vaccinations, heartworm testing, microchipping, dentals, nail trims, ear and eye medications and worming.

The Surprising Haircut You're Going to See Everywhere This Summer
PSA: bangs aren't just the mark of an existential crisis anymore. They're a very deliberate (and chic!) decision that everyone is making this summer. Bangs seem to be less about an actual hairstyle and more about what they do to draw attention to one's eyes and facial structure. And who doesn't want to highlight those? Scroll through a few bang-centric haircuts that will surely convince you to commit to fringe this season.
Full Body Bangs
Starting off with a bang, literally—full bodied bangs are for the bold. No wispies or peeks of forehead here.

Classic Fringe
Long, tousled tresses paired with piecy bangs is the ultimate flirty look.
