That burden is having to grow up in the Gomel district of Belarus, just across the border from Chernobyl, Ukraine, the site of the world's worst nuclear accident to date. Their vacation in Estonia is one of the two trips they take every year to escape the high doses of radiation that are a daily fact of life in their home town of Dobrush.
"Eighty-seven percent of the children at our school have health problems and diseases. Only 13 percent are more or less healthy," said the children's schoolteacher Nadezhda Shablovskaja, who is a chaperone for the 20 children on their holiday, an all-expense paid trip courtesy of the Estonian government.
Gomel was devastated by the 1986 Chernobyl catastrophe, which contaminated 70 percent of the region with dangerous radionucleids. Most of the children were not yet born when the meltdown at the nuclear power plant in Northern Ukraine sent out doses of radiation 200 times the amount of the Nagasaki and Hiroshima bombs. But experts say the region is still contaminated and that effects of the accident will be seen for decades to come, leaving the children to live with a poisonous legacy.
"All of our children have to be tested two times a year for radiation," said Shablovskaja. As an adult she has a choice, but for children in her region, she explained, such medical tests are mandatory. They must also eat fruits and vegetables brought in from other regions because the soil in Gomel is too contaminated to grow "clean" produce.
In Gomel, thyroid cancer, a disease rarely seen in children, is estimated to be 100 times higher than before the catastrophe, according to a report on the UN's Chernobyl Web site. While none of the children at Kotka suffer from such severe afflictions, they do have an array of other medical problems, such as ulcers, goiter and respiratory problems, their chaperones said.
"The children don't want to talk about it that much," said chaperone Irene Parkhomenko, who was a child herself when the disaster happened. "We are just accustomed to it. We don't think about it as much now," she said matter-of-factly. "What else can we do?"
Unlike their parents, the children don't have memories of the accident to suppress. But they have a vague understanding that something very bad once happened in their country.
"My mother told me there was an explosion and then a strong wind," explained 14-year-old Vitaly, who was born the year of the accident. "All of the fruits and vegetables are contaminated in Dobrush. They tell me that even those that are brought into the region get that way, but I don't know if it's true," he said.
Another boy, an 8-year-old who is the youngest of the group, knows that "radiation is death." More than that, he can't explain, but what he does understand of nuclear power, is more than most children his age do.
Researchers have yet to agree if the reported increase in health problems in Gomel are all related to radiation exposure, but there is a consensus about one thing: Living in the midst of an ecological and economic calamity is not good for the psyche.
Two weeks in Estonia will allow them to recuperate from the radioactive environment and also give them a new experience and show them something of Estonia, said Vahur Soosaar, a spokesman at the Foreign Ministry, which spent 209,810 kroons ($12,600) to cover the costs of the trip. The children, all selected from Dobrush's Secondary School No. 3, were chosen because they live in one of the most affected areas, which has received the least international aid, Soosaar said.
The trip is the second of its kind to be sponsored by the Foreign Ministry since 1998, when the government felt Estonia had achieved enough economic success to begin funding international humanitarian projects. The first trip was for a group of Ukrainian children from the Chernobyl region to visit the same camp in Lahemaa last summer. Other Estonian aid projects for Chernobyl victims have included funding for computer equipment for a secondary school in Ukraine.
Respite trips have been funded by a number of countries, such as Germany and Switzerland. Lithuania has also sponsored trips for schoolchildren from contaminated regions. International charity groups as far afield as Ireland and Canada have also hosted children for long-term stays.
Experts say that while respite trips may not be a protection against serious health problems, they are good for the children's well-being.

The Reboard innovation REVERSO.PLUS by Concord will convince you with maximum safety and ease. It features a super convenient handling and is suitable for children from birth up to a body height of 105 cm.
The child car seat is to be installed in a rear-facing mode only.
Group/ weight category:
Conforms to the standard:
This lightweight reboard child car seat requires only little space in your car while still offering your child a spacious and cosy spot due to its smart design. The special shape of the impact protection bar provides an ideal opportunity for your child to put down his/her feet. Due to its optimised space requirements it still offers enough legroom.
The Concord REVERSO.PLUS definitely scores with its versatility. The newborn insert which features a separate cushioning turns this child car seat into a full infant car seat that can be used up to an age of approximately three to five months. After that your child can take a seat on the seat reducer. Later on, neither the insert nor the reducer is required anymore and the child car seat can be used until your child has reached a body height of 105 cm.
Convenient rotary buttons enable you to adjust the support leg and the sitting/ lying positions. All this can even be done from the driver's seat. All adjustment options are accessible from all sides of the seat. The clear colour marking of the red/ green indicators have been improved considerably and now provide the necessary safety and assure you that the child car seat has been installed correctly.
Easy fastening and unfastened ins ensured by the 3-point harness. The central belt buckle position prevents your child from slipping out of the shoulder strap. The convenient magnetic holders for fastening the belts easier contribute to the REVERSO.PLUS' high usability. That way, fastening and unfastening your child is going to be super easy. Furthermore, there are particularly large vent slots in the back section that supply your little passenger with optimum air circulation.
The circumferential aluminium frame does not just look great but is also made of shock-absorbing material and offers maximum protection by featuring an extremely low weight. The PLUS means that there are many amazing extra-features such as scratch proof surfaces, improved side impaction due to EPP shoulder projectors as well as an additional reinforcement and improved geometry of the headrest.
When combined with the newborn insert, the Concord REVERSO.PLUS features a weight of 10,9 kg – without the insert it only weighs 9,9 kg.
The Reboard innovation: extremely safe and light in weight!

SALARIES (455 points) - against Angel L. [5W, 4W, 2W, hook off HORN for a plural]
Interesting rack of the night so far: BASEPENS (against Karen C.), RAILSEAS (against Angel L.)
Henry picked me up for Awana, and we spent some time discussing being cold vs. being hot. At least he also would rather be too hot than too cold, and I mentioned my Regina experience to him - he thought I said "China" at first, heh. We settled into listening to the music he had on, after I learned that he would stay home for Chinese New Year and study with a dinner of canned soup. He's right: it's a holiday for our people, but not in general! We managed to take advantage of an open parkade, and strolled in on time. I got to interact with Joshua and Ian M., who waved at me when the Cubbies went to their own room upstairs - so cute! Tried one cola gummy, and one mango gummy - reminds me of the time I bought a LOT of mango gummies, and included a bunch for Corey's graduation in 2006. (it got there at the same time his friend Jane was in town from Taiwan, haha)
A few of us managed to confuse the brothers Heyman and Johnny, and Stanley told me that he was getting into HOUSE. Hey, I might well do that on Mondays too. Then when they were playing SIMON SAYS (renamed to SPARKY SAYS), he told me / Chris / Mike that it would be really funny if Emily said "Sparky says Do A Dance! *pause* Do A Dance!" Hahahaha! I was transported back to memories of Camp Sasamat when the kids sang The Lord Told Noah To Build An Arky-Arky. (we used to sing that on the bus!)
Later, I broke away from the debriefing because I saw Ian M. That meant I could FINALLY give him his way late birthday card, and got a prompted hug in return! Then Ian asked "What about her?" meaning his cousin Olivia, whose birthday is on 9/11 - I made a resolution on the way home to give her animal stickers tomorrow. I helped Sean L. with his jelly candy, for which I got a thank-you. His brother Ian (L., so not the same one as Olivia's cousin) said that I looked like a snowman... thanks, kid! Must have been my brown Regina ski jacket, haha. I'd get Rachel's grandma to fix the button issue, but she won't be there tomorrow. Ah well, maybe next week! I'll just wear the blue jacket instead. Saw Jon afterwards, who asked how I was getting home: Henry, most certainly! Noticed Richie, Pastor John, and Jonathan there too. Auntie Rebecca wished us all a Happy Chinese New Year, too!
Corey and I are talking about DRM, piracy, and stupid crackdowns:
[19:36:58] Flami: the hamsterette: so what have you been up to?!
[19:41:59] Corey: kablorngo
[19:54:25] Flami: well, I can do you one better!!!!!!! :P
[19:55:08] Corey: oh yeah? how's that?
[19:58:41] Flami: blorgy! Ka jorrgy! meep meep mwuhahahaa.
[20:00:02] Flami: now if that isn't better, I don't know what is! :D
[20:00:08] Corey: that's a bunch of nonsense!
[20:00:27] Flami: well, so was YOUR message!
[20:00:41] Corey: nope
[20:01:58] *** "Corey" signed off at Sat Jan 24 20:01:58 2009.
[20:02:01] *** "Corey" signed on at Sat Jan 24 20:02:01 2009.
[20:04:11] Flami: at least I get what Eric is generally talking about when he devolves into what (to me) is nonsense, but you don't play Warcraft, so...
[20:05:33] Corey: daboo!
[20:06:04] Corey: zug dug
[20:06:18] Corey: I played Warcraft II!
[20:07:35] Flami: 3?
[20:08:13] Corey: World of Warcraft looks so stupid, it's hard to describe... and Warcraft III just didn't seem the same... and Warcraft I is pretty primitive... Starcraft seemed cool, but I never got into that one for some reason even though I thought it looked awesome before it came out
[20:08:19] Corey: II! not III!
[20:08:26] Corey: 2!
[20:09:13] Flami: YES, I KNOW
[20:10:22] Corey: most of those games don't do it for me really.. I like the concept, and played a lot of Warcraft 2... these days I mainly play Red Alert 2 if I want something like that.. there's a new Red Alert 3, but it's all 3D... and in other 3D games like that, you can't tell what the hell is going on because everything is all tiny unless you zoom way in, which means you can't see what the enemy is doing :P
[20:10:33] Corey: plus RA3 is full of nasty DRM, same as Spore
[20:12:30] Corey: it might be good, I think I have it... I'll try it out sometime. it's probably similar to Command & Conquer 3 though, which is where I get the "3D can't see crap" idea from.. Red Alert is a Command & Conquer spin-off, set in an alternate reality where Einstein lives longer, and somehow the USSR invades everything with Tesla technology
[20:13:01] Flami: is DRM a virus?
[20:13:11] Corey: Red Alert 3 might be better since it's usually more bright and colorful and cartoony... I don't need realistic graphics, I want bigass tanks and stuff and it should be colorful and stand out from the background and be big enough to SEE :P
[20:13:33] Corey: how do you not know what DRM is in this day and age?? :P
[20:14:05] Corey: and yes, it's a virus (not really) that companies put in their own software to give you a hard time and screw you over
[20:15:12] Flami: hey. I am not Eric. I am not a computer geek.
[20:15:27] Corey: it's copy protection stuff. the new evil one in Spore only allows you to install the game three times, ever (it has to go online and validate your install to allow you to play), and only allows one person to play.. like if we lived together and you had a character going, I couldn't start up a new game with a new character without deleting yours or buying a new copy of the game
[20:15:42] Corey: it's in music and iTunes and games and everything!
[20:15:59] Corey: you don't need to be a computer geek to know what that is :P
[20:18:20] Corey: DRM in games usually completely sucks. there's some that even detects if you have a CD burner (and who doesn't these days), and bans you from playing because you own hardware capable of making a copy if it. others detect Daemon tools (virtual CD drive that lets you use a CD image (a file copy of a CD on your hard drive) like it was a real CD) and force you to uninstall that...
[20:18:37] Corey: pirates use that a lot to play copied games without having to burn to a real disc, but it also has a billion legit uses
[20:19:23] Corey: usually you can't remove the DRM software by uninstalling it, so it sticks around like a virus.. a lot of it wastes your system resources or even causes stuff to crash on you.... that type might as well be a virus
[20:20:18] Corey: Bioshock came out a while back, and nobody could play it because the DRM required an online activation.. so it comes out, huge hyped-up game.. now you have three million people or whatever trying to activate at the same time so they can play it, and the activation servers crash and nobody can play :P
[20:20:24] Flami: that does sound annoying.
[20:21:30] Corey: music DRM makes it so you can only listen to your music in iTunes (or whatever other program) and can't share files by copying it... in extreme cases, it can put a limit on how many times you can even listen to it or delete it after a period of time or whatever
[20:22:47] Corey: it's stupid as hell. it means that if you choose to buy the product and support the company, you have a ton of hoops to jump through, and for something like Spore, what if you upgrade from XP to Vista? that means you've installed it twice. then you delete it because you're not playing it much and need space, then you put it back on later.. that's three installs. now if you ever uninstall it, you're forever banned from playing your own game you paid for because they only let you install it three times.
[20:23:10] Corey: want to play it again? go buy another one
[20:23:55] Corey: guess what happens if you pirate it instead? well, that stuff is all gone and is removed even before the game comes out in stores in most cases, and everything works great and you're all set and can use it however you'd like forever :P
[20:24:04] Corey: that bullcrap only encourages piracy
[20:24:39] Corey: it does absolutely nothing to stop it... other than that, it's not really something you can just stick in your CD burner and copy for your friend, since the DRM has to be cracked.
[20:25:01] Corey: but the cracks are all online, and it's easier to download a torrent than to copy a disc anyway, most of the time :P
[20:25:04] Corey: so it stops nothing
[20:25:22] Corey: just punishes the paying customers, which is a pretty stupid thing to do
[20:25:42] Corey: so there you go. DRM = pure evil
[20:26:54] Corey: meanwhile, Monty Python released their entire library for free on YouTube, and their DVD sales went up 23,000% because of it :P
[20:27:33] Flami: what?! no way. how can music DRM be so stupid?
[20:28:38] Corey: well, there are services (or were, I don't know if they're around now) where you could download MP3s for a monthly fee... then if you stop paying, you lose the rights to listen to those MP3s
[20:29:23] Corey: sometimes they allow one copy so you can put it on your portable MP3 player or something, but usually those will expire after a certain amount of time or something
[20:30:38] Corey: and you should see the HD DRM bullcrap. it's called HDCP, and all devices you're using must be HDCP-compatible or nothing will work. for example, your TV needs to be HDCP-compatible, your player needs to be, and even the CABLE needs to be HDCP-compatible
[20:31:33] Corey: so a situation people are finding now is they have like a Bluray player and an Xbox 360, both using HDMI cables for an HD picture.. but... one HDMI port on the TV... so, get a little HDMI switchbox
[20:32:21] Corey: but uh oh, the switch doesn't tell everything it's HDCP-compatible, and your TV assumes you're a filthy pirate and downgrades the picture so you can't watch it in HD (or it just goes blank completely)
[20:32:56] Corey: or the switch works with HDCP... but if you flip it over to the Xbox and then back to your movie a while later, it gets confused about the HDCP stuff, and you have to turn everything off and start over
[20:33:06] Corey: all so nobody can watch pirated movies
[20:33:22] Corey: and if you want the pirated movie, you can just download it and watch it without dealing with any of that bullcrap :P
[20:34:10] Corey: again, not stopping piracy and just punishing everyone that pays for everything
[20:34:12] Flami: that's crazy
[20:35:41] Corey: video cards on computers now have to be HDCP-compatible (and so does your monitor), or it'll ban you from hooking your computer up to an HDTV and using HD resolutions
[20:35:51] Corey: and various other crap
[20:36:36] Corey: so people get a fancy laptop with a Blu-Ray player in it.. want to hook it up to the TV to watch movies... oh no, your video card doesn't give the magic signal so you can't watch it in HD even though it's perfectly capable of it
[20:37:24] Corey: it'll be cracked so you don't have to deal with it, but then new Blu-Ray movies will give it HDCP updates that undo the cracks and update all your stuff :P
[20:38:21] Corey: so far, 99% of the problems I've seen are just with people that want to watch the stuff they've paid for, not anyone trying to copy or pirate anything
[20:38:56] Corey: there's so many things that have to line up right for it to say "okay, you're not a criminal bastard, you can watch your movie" that stuff is bound to go wrong with most setups...
[20:39:50] Corey: companies are really stupid and think that more and more stuff like that will eventually clamp everything down hard enough to end piracy and copying, but that'll never happen...
[20:41:05] Corey: Spore (the most anticipated awesome looking game, with major widespread appeal for all types of people) was / is rated one-star overall on Amazon with thousands of reviews about the DRM (which isn't mentioned on the box even) being a bunch of crap, so, at least people aren't putting up with it.
[20:41:44] Corey: of course, they then responded by giving people what they wanted... Red Alert 3 came out with the same restrictions, you just get 10 installs instead of 3 or some bullcrap :P
[20:42:13] Corey: I've installed Red Alert 2 like ten times by now, easily.... (and I own TWO legit copies of that one :P)
[20:43:11] Flami: oh dear.
[20:43:30] Corey: oh, and I was going to tell you about iTunes too.. they dropped the DRM just recently..... BUT.... if you already have songs, you have to "upgrade" them to be DRM-free, for like 40 cents a song. for a lot of people that amounts to paying hundreds of dollars on the songs they already bought
[20:44:03] Corey: 40 cents a song adds up when you have a bunch of full albums of songs from iTunes
[20:46:44] Corey: so anyway, all it does is piss everyone off and make things hard on you.. and you're supposed to give them money for that privilege. there's a bunch of Youtube videos around where people rant about the DRM not even letting them play their game, so they had to resort to downloading a crack file from the internet, and they're never buying games from that company again
[20:47:13] Corey: but the trend, with a few exceptions, is to just make bigger and more restrictive DRM
[20:47:31] Corey: they think if they get fancy enough, people won't crack it, which just isn't going to happen...
[20:47:55] Corey: SO... now you should know something about DRM!!!!!
[20:48:01] Corey: (probably a lot more than you wanted :P)
[20:49:49] Corey: ah! one more example! a lady was at my house working on photo album stuff (my mom's customer), and she wanted help putting a song on as background music on a photo CD slideshow she was making... but... the song had DRM in it and that counted as an illegal copy and wouldn't let her do it.. so I had to explain why that was to her.
[20:49:51] Flami: what?! That is crazy
[20:50:22] Corey: so there you go. if she pirated it, it'd be great. but since she wasted her money by BUYING it, she's treated like a criminal when she wants to add music to some photos to show her family :P
[20:51:24] Corey: so DRM is great. that would have been a major loss to the recording industry if her family heard a song she already paid for :P
[20:53:53] Corey: unless companies get a clue, what's going to happen is it's going to be like that in everything until people get so pissed off that everyone turns to piracy, and the music and movie and game industries totally collapse because nobody is buying their broken crap anymore. then maybe, MAYBE they'll change their mind, but so far the solution is to try to sue and jail anyone they can instead
[20:54:28] Corey: it'll probably be a big problem in the near future (it already is really) if nothing changes
[20:58:06] Corey: There's Spore. Scroll down and look at the reviews to see how much people like that stuff :P And there must have been a push of positive reviews (and companies are being caught paying people to post positive reviews on Amazon and other places these days) since it's all the way up to 1.5 stars
[21:20:41] Flami: oh yay... most of the reviews I've seen are bad.
[21:32:53] Corey: well, they also screwed up the game itself... it looked AWESOME in this huge demo / preview thing Will Wright (he's the guy that made SimCity, The Sims, and lots of other games millions of people have played) did a couple years ago, but they totally simplified it and pretty much ruined the whole idea in the end
[21:33:08] Corey: but, the primary complaint there is the DRM rather than the game :P
[21:34:24] Corey: look up Red Alert 3 instead... it seems like more people like the game, but still complain about the DRM a LOT, especially since it's the same DRM as Spore.. and apparently they give you five installs on that one. that's their response to all the Spore hate and protest.. they put the same thing on their next game, but loosened it to five installs from three.
[21:34:37] Corey: if you buy a game, you should have installs until the CD wears out :P
[21:36:00] Corey: that also means nobody in their right mind would buy it used, since it probably wouldn't work anymore... so you don't really own anything for your money. you have a CD that puts it on your computer, and you play it if and when they let you play it. it has no real value anymore, and might even not work for you, much less someone that you sell it to
[21:44:01] Flami: yup, that sounds bad to me
[21:44:54] Corey: $50 rental :P
[21:46:08] Corey: and what happens when the company goes out of business and doesn't exist to grant you extra installs? usually they say if you call them, which isn't free, they'll work with you and give you more installs... so you get to beg to play if you run out of your few installs
[21:48:07] Corey: or like a lot of online games, they just drop support of that game entirely? a lot of online games become worthless fast because they drop the servers for it and put them on a newer game.. without servers they don't work online, and a lot of games now ONLY work online.. those are rentals too
[21:48:14] Corey: so why won't they decide customer support on old games doesn't matter anymore, and never grant installs on games a few years old?
[21:51:02] Flami: bad
[21:51:12] Corey: geez, the installs are worse than I thought.. it even counts if you add a new video card (which as far as programs are concerned is meaningless)
[21:51:24] Corey: check this one out:
"This may well be one of the best games of the year. For that matter, it may well be one of the best FPS games to date! But I'll never get to experience its full glory due to the crippling DRM.
The "security" feature built into the game supposedly allows you to install the game on 3 computers.
[21:51:34] Corey: What they don't tell you is installing any new hardware, or even upgrading a video video driver will cause an new license to be used. Even if they told you, there is no way to de-authorize the computer because that feature has not yet been developed... Wow. That's pretty important to the entire DRM system, right? Leave the honest customer an out? Well, EA doesn't care about you. Here's how I spent my 3 install activations:
[21:51:43] Corey: 1: Install the game and run it one time. Game activates.
2: Buy new video card, install it, run game. Game reactivates again!
3: Loan video card out to friend, use old video card, run game, Game reactivates again!
?: Put my new video card back in, run game, no more activations left.
[21:51:54] Corey: Thanks, EA! You just stole $30 from me! That's what I get for being honest. So from now on, I will be forced to either pirate games using this DRM, or just boycott those games all together. Either way, not another penny of my money will go toward anything with "activations"-based DRM. It only seems fair to steal a game from EA now that they have stolen $30 from me for a game I cannot play.
[21:52:00] Corey: So what was the game like? Well, the menus looked nice, and the first 20 minutes of the game was fun. Very nice-looking, but I can't really say much. I didn't get to experience much of it. I recommend EVERYONE STAY AWAY FROM THIS TITLE at least until a patch is released to remove the DRM, if that ever happens."
[21:52:19] Corey: now that is crap :P I upgrade at least something on my computer fairly regularly, and would at least use those up in a year or so... but I don't keep games installed if I'm not actively playing them anyway, so I'd use even more reinstalling it...
[21:53:32] Corey: games are like 6+ gigs now, each... you can't keep everything installed all the time.. wastes too much space
[22:02:34] Flami: even on the huge hard drives? yeah, I'd imagine that to be the case... yikes.
[22:04:24] Corey: I barely keep any games installed, and I'm always out of room :P my game drive is 250GB
[22:05:47] Corey: it has 16GB free at the moment. and maybe 5-6 big games, if that, installed?
[22:06:05] Corey: there's other stuff taking up room on my hard drive too
[22:07:55] Corey: Oblivion with all the add-ons, and some things to give it better graphics is about 10GB... Command & Conquer 3, 6GB... 7GB of Portal.. like 4GB of Red Alert 2... Knights of the Old Republic is like 5GB... Knights of the Old Republic 2... same... adds up pretty fast :P
[22:12:10] Flami: I should go bug Eric about that and see how much hard drive space WOW takes up

by Stoyin Zaimov, The Christian Post
Pope Francis has suggested that he is open to the possibility of married men becoming Roman Catholic priests in cases where communities face a shortage of clergy and are being displaced by other faiths.
A prominent Catholic theologian has meanwhile resigned as consultant to the U.S. bishops' Committee on Doctrine after accusing the pontiff in a letter of sowing "chronic confusion" with the "intentionally ambiguous" manner of his teachings, which he warned could lead to sins against the Holy Spirit.
The Telegraph reported on Thursday that Francis has requested discussion on whether married men in the Amazon region in Brazil could be allowed to become priests, which would go against long-held tradition.
Cardinal Claudio Hummes, the president of the Episcopal Commission for the Amazon, reportedly made a request to the pope to consider the proposal, given that both evangelical Christians and pagan sects are displacing Catholicism in the region.

Flatter hierarchies, networked structures, agile teams: Many companies are embracing a fundamental rethinking of how they organize themselves. But their talent management practices remain beholden to the old ways. Only one in every three companies allows its people to grow and develop outside of the tight constraints of traditional career tracks. They expect talented professionals to dedicate years to developing for a position that might cease to exist before they ever have a shot at it, or the designated talents leave the company before they reach that target position. Companies need to overhaul their development concepts and career maps.
This is only one of the many important findings of our new study "Trust in Talent" . For the first time ever, the study brings together both sides of the equation: The HR managers responsible for talent management, and the talented people they are working with.
Our Key Findings
Talent management means, in essence, that companies decide which competences and which abilities are particularly important for their success. They identify the people who possess those competences, and they develop and support them systematically and try to keep them on board for the long term. However, only 55 percent of the participating companies have a dedicated strategy for this purpose, that is, only half of all companies know what really matters for their success and what they should support and promote. A (new) talent management strategy needs to be rooted in the corporate strategy to have a solid basis for defining specific management principles and indicators. These are essential to know whether the considerable resources invested into talent management are worthwhile and whether they indeed have a measurable impact on the company's Performance.
Our study shows: Two thirds of all companies are still using a very monolithic notion of talent, aimed at so-called high potentials to ensure a sufficient pipeline for a defined set of key positions or leadership roles. Only 1 in 3 companies would consider every employee a talent deserving of support and opportunity. For managers and HR decision makers, it would seem the right time to ask themselves what they mean by "talent" and how they can align how they find and develop the right talent with the actual needs of their future business
There is a not very hidden subtext to our study's title "Trust in Talent": We have found that talented professionals want to and should take charge of their future development, but many HR professionals do not even consider that opportunity. It is a basic rule: To keep talented professionals committed to their employer and to empower them to do their best and realize their potential, their needs have to come first. Find out in our next blog entry how this can be done and what the prospects are for innovative talent management
How is your company's talent management working? Did you recognize yourself and your company?

The rise of social media and mobile devices has changed the ways that journalism is produced and consumed. In his forthcoming book "Mobile and Social Media Journalism: A Practical Guide," Ithaca College Assistant Professor Anthony Adornato prepares journalists to succeed in the new journalism landscape while avoiding risks like spreading "fake news."
"Mobile and Social Media Journalism" aims to prepare future journalists to use social media and mobile devices for news gathering, distributing content and engaging with audiences. In doing so, it introduces readers to concepts like building a social media brand, locating credible user-generated content, writing for social media and mobile news, and using analytics platforms to monitor the effectiveness of social media activity.
Adornato says that the public is increasingly getting its news from online platforms like Twitter and Facebook. For journalists to succeed at delivering quality content to the audience, he says they need to gear their reporting towards social media.
"We need to adapt to how the audience is consuming news," said Adornato. "We need to meet them in the spaces where they're active."
Some of the impact of social media has been positive, says Adornato. For example, Twitter allows journalists to quickly crowdsource valuable information from the public, and smartphone-based apps have allowed reporters to become increasingly mobile. They can now gather, produce, and distribute content all from a mobile device. Social media has also connected journalists with readers, bringing the public into the reporting process like never before.
"They are not only consuming news in different ways now, they're also producers of content," said Adornato.
However, Adornato cautions that these new dynamics have increased the amount of misinformation, now commonly referred to as "fake news," that is shared and consumed by the public. Adornato likens social media to the "Wild West of the internet." His research shows that many television newsrooms lack policies for verifying information from social media, even though they are increasingly dependent on it as a source. "Mobile and Social Media Journalism" teaches aspiring journalists to mediate the dangers of misinformation by applying traditional journalistic values like verification.
The book is structured around a course on the topic Adornato has taught at Ithaca College's Roy H. Park School of Communications since 2014. The class will be required for all journalism majors at the school starting in the fall 2017 semester. Adornato says that the book can be useful for other journalism schools that are still attempting to integrate social media into their curriculums.
Several Ithaca College graduates who took Adornato's course are featured in the book, demonstrating how important mastery of social media and mobile technology can be for finding a job in the field today. One former student, Dylan Lyons '14, went on to manage social media for the "CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley." Another, Emily Masters '16, successfully interviewed for a prestigious Hearst Fellowship in part because of her social media knowledge and experience.
"Mobile and Social Media Journalism" is due out from Sage Publishing in August 2017.

Global DCS Market in the Power Industry to Grow at a CAGR of 3.03% During 2014-2019; Finds New Report
Market Research Reports, Inc. has announced the addition of "Global Distributed Control Systems Market in Power Industry 2015-2019" research report to their website http://www.MarketResearchReports.com
Lewes, DE -- (SBWire) -- 09/08/2015 --Report forecast the Global DCS market in the power industry to grow at a CAGR of 3.03% over the period 2014-2019.
A DCS is an automated control system that, rather than being centralized, is distributed across an entire organization. DCS is distributed in such a way that each component or sub-system of a manufacturing plant is controlled by one or more controllers, thereby providing instructions to different parts of the plant. Thus, instead of having a centrally located control system, each section of the plant has its own control operations.
DCS solutions, hence, enable the effective and efficient control and management of the entire plant. Further, they facilitate a reduction in downtime errors and an increase in the productivity of the plant. DCS is adopted by industries that require multi-step processing such as power, pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, pulp and paper, food and beverage, chemical, automotive, and packaging.
This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the Global DCS market in the power industry during the period 2015-2019. To calculate the market size, the report considers revenue generated from the following: sales of hardware and software licenses, renewal of software licenses, upgrades of existing solutions, maintenance and services. It also presents the vendor landscape and a corresponding detailed analysis of the major vendors in the market. In addition, it discusses the major drivers that influence the growth of the market.
Global DCS Market in Power Industry 2015-2019, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the Americas, APAC, and EMEA; it also covers the landscape of the global DCS market in the power industry and its growth prospects in the coming years. The report includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.
According to the report, surge in outsourcing is an important market growth driver. India and China are the ideal outsourcing destinations due to the easy availability of low-cost labor and flexible foreign direct investment (FDI) policies. Manufacturing activities vying for international standards are fully automated, and are therefore, dependent on electricity. Thus, an increase in outsourcing of manufacturing activities to APAC will increase the demand for electricity. This is expected to drive the demand for DCS solutions in the power industry.

In The Bag
By Peter Read Miller, Sports Illustrated
Photo by Peter Read Miller
Peter's Domke F-805 Courier Satchel on the outside.
As an SI shooter with a fondness for football, my weekend assignments from late August to January mainly consist of a college game on Saturday and a pro game Sunday. Living, as I do, in the "town with no team" NFL-wise, Sunday is always on the road; and, with the exception of the occasional USC or UCLA game, I start most weekends departing Friday and return Sunday night or Monday morning.
Here's what I take with me on these trips:
Carry On Bag #1-Domke F-805 Courier Satchel.
For years I was a fan on the Domke F-1X "Little Bit Bigger" bag, however, after 9/11 I switched to the satchel as I feel that it's appearance is much closer to the "small personal item-briefcase or handbag" - allowed as a second carry-on (in nearly 100 flights I've never been challenged on this). In fact the satchel will hold just about as much as the F-1X and with all it's compartments and pockets is easier to keep organized.
So, what's in it?
Main body of the bag:
Photo by Peter Read Miller
Peter's Domke F-805 Courier Satchel inside.
•2 Canon EOS-1v bodies (or EOS-1D's if we're shooting digital)Domke lens holder insert
•16-35 zoom, 70-200 zoom, 85 f1.8 (my around the neck lens), 1.4 extender, Minolta meter.
• Film or CF Cards, camera batteries (digital), book-all these items sit on top of the cameras and lenses-as the bag is quite deep.
• Front Pouches: More film, tape, lens cleaning cloth, flashlight, AA batteries, extra synch cords, etc.
• Inside Zipper and Flap Pouches: Game credentials, MLB pass (once used as ID for boarding a plane after I lost my drivers license in DIA), extra house key, Palm Pilot-things of value.
Top Outside Zipper Pockets:
Itinerary, cell phone, car keys, gum.
The bag also has an outside rear pocket that is great for magazines and newspapers and the inside main area is divided with just enough room for my Sony Vaio laptop.
Carry On Bag #2-Tamrac Rolling Case 20"x14"x8"
Photo by Peter Read Miller
Peter's Tamrac Rolling Case.
I have 2 of these cases, when I tried to look up the model number I couldn't find an exact match so I suspect the Tamrac has changed their line. In any case this case is a size that has always fit in any overhead (on a real size plane). It is sturdy enough to survive the occasional gate check and most importantly the handle is long enough for some 6'3" to pull it comfortably. I've had these cases for 3 or 4 years and the only problem has been a zipper on an outside pocket.
What's in it?
• Canon 400 F2.8 IS Lens
• Gitzo Carbon Fiber monopod
• Canon EOS-1v body
• Mountain Hardware belt pouch
• Canon 2x extender
• Light Gortex raincoat
• Light Gortex rain/wind pants
• Kneepads
• More film if necessary
• Film and shipping envelopes
If I know I'm going on a small plane and the case will be gate checked, I pack an extra sweatshirt for padding.
Photo by Peter Read Miller
Inside Peter's Versa-Flex case.
So now I am carrying on everything I need to shoot my assignments. Yes it's a lot of weight (throwing the Tamrac roller up into the overhead is never a joy), and yes It's harder in these days of travel; but to me it is an absolutely essential to travel this way.
Checked Bags:
For shorter trips in moderate weather, I try to only check 1 bag plus my cart (currently an ancient Kart-A-bag). When I need heavy clothes, or if the trip is extended, I add a large Lightware duffel bag. Even if I don't need all the room in the bag, I have found that the Kart-a-bag will fir in the duffel, thus meeting the 2 checked bag limit.
My checked bag is a Versa-Flex case (27"x20"x12"). Both Lightware and Tenba make some great cases, but I like metal frame in the Versa-Flex. I do not, however, use their long lens mounting system-it just never worked for me. Instead I put my long lens (Canon 600 F4 IS) in a Garagear lens bag and then into a Lightware long lens case with my Aquatech rain covers stuffed in as padding (the rain covers are moves up to the Tamrac if rain is in the weekend's forecast). This protects the lens and gives me the Lightware bag to carry extra film or rain gear into the game.

In addition to the 600 this case holds:
• Gitzo Carbon Fiber monopod
• EOS-1v Body in Lightware camera pouch
• Canon 550EX Flash
• Camera battery charger
• Phone charger
• Clothes and toilet items
So, this is how I do it. I doubt any two photographers would ever pack the same exact way, but this is what works for me.

The UAE's very own Hamdan Al-Abri has picked up praise from one of the highest of places – Quincy Jones.
After hearing Al-Abri sing the legendary producer gave the utmost of compliments, declaring he 'tore it up'.
Jones – a man who has worked with everyone from Frank Sinatra to Michael Jackson – added: 'My man was real – there's a song, and there's a story, and it was all there. My man tore it up.'
His comments came at a performance as part of Dubai Music Week, where five acts from across the region performed in front of a panel of celebrity judges, in the style of X-Factor.
Will.i.am was also a fan of Abri. The Black Eyed Peas frontman said: 'You can tell when someone has experience from the way they walk onstage. He [Abri] walked on and said "I own this". I really enjoyed myself.'
Producing veteran Timbaland – who's worked with scores of artists including Jay-Z and Justin Timberlake – added: 'Well, that was good. I wanted to hear more – I wanted to hear another song.'
Despite the praise Al-Abri lost out on the chance to work with Quincy Jones, with the competition's top prize going to Lebanese singer Xriss Jor after she received three unanimous votes from the panel for a performance of 'Listen' by Beyoncé.
'You sing amazing,' Will.i.am told her, 'I'd like to collaborate [with you].'
'I can see you being super-huge,' added Timbaland, 'you're probably the hottest thing in Lebanon.
'There are a lot of artists but there are not a lot of stars; you have the potential to be a star. I'd love to work with you.'
The UAE's Jay Wud also impressed the judges. Timbaland praised Wud's performance of 'a great rock song', adding 'I wanted to turn his guitar up – but it would have scared the audience'.
Sudanese-born, Abu Dhabi-based singer Nile also wowed the panel, at Dubai World Trade Centre on Wednesday September 25, after performing solo with just his guitar for backing.
'He's real,' said Jones. 'He's really real – he's got style.'
'That was great,' added Timbaland. 'To me, he's an artist. Just him and a guitar – that means he's one [with the guitar], like a pilot flying a plane. And what I thought was just amazing was his voice.'
Only Dubai-based electro-pop singer DD Foxx failed to attract the judge's praise. 'This [music] was created in a vacuum,' said Will.i.am following the Lebanese artist's performance. 'A lot of people, when they hear a sample, think "I can do that too" – but the simplest thing is the hardest thing'.

Purchased for my spouse, he loves them and appreciates that I found such a nice pair of thermaflex gloves.
Haven't used yet
I have a very big hand I never repeat never can find outdoor wear that fits well. These gloves fit like they were made for me. They are comfortable very warm and can work in conjunction with the Hydronaut Gloves for total protection from the elements. Very Impressed . Now if AFTCO can make bigger rain gear that fits like these gloves there is no need to shop elsewhere!!! Great Product!
Love these so much I got a pair for my son. They are perfect for fall, not to bulky and still keep tour hands warm and dry. And I dont have to take them off to use my electronics.
Love the gloves for fishing, great feel. Only downfall not waterproof (wasn't expecting them to be) but would be perfect if same design could be made waterproof
Perfect gloves for fishing while keeping your hands warm on those chilly mornings on the water!!
Comfortable love the finger pad for using touch screen electronics
Great early morning driving gloves. Form fitting, wind proof and they have a good grip on the palms. I like the fact that they are also touch screen compatible.
Awesome gloves. Very comfortable and worth every penny.

Adding Automation Suites
You can create automation suite templates that users are able to run many times, or an ad hoc automation suite that runs only once. For additional information about ad hoc automation suites, see Running AdHoc Automation Suites.
Note: Admins can enable non-admin users to edit and create suite templates using the
AllowRegularUsersToEditSnQ key - see Advanced CloudShell Customizations.
In this article:
Add a new automation suite
An automation suite must have at least one job that has a test. However, an automation suite can have multiple jobs, with each job containing multiple tests.
To add a new automation suite:
In CloudShell Portal, click Job Scheduling.
The Job Scheduling dashboard is displayed in the Executions page, listing the existing automation suites.
Click Add New Suite. If you have multiple execution server types, click the drop down list directly below the Add New Suite link and select the execution server type for the new automation suite template.
The Create Suite Template page is displayed. the suite's execution server type is displayed in brackets in the blue header.
- Specify a Name for the automation suite.
To define the email notification you wish to receive for the suite, click the Email Notifications field and select one of the following options:
No notification will be sent.
Errors Only
(Default) Notification will be sent if an error occurs while trying to run a job within the suite. Test failure does not prompt an email notification.
Suite and Errors
Notifications will be sent:
- When the first job in the suite starts and the last job in the suite completes.
- If an error occurs while trying to run the suite or any of its jobs.
Notifications will be sent:
- When the first job in the suite starts and the last job in the suite completes.
- If an error occurs while trying to run the suite or any of its jobs.
- When each job in the suite starts and completes.
To view or edit the published input fields, in the User Inputs field, click and edit the required fields.
To define advanced scheduling options for the suite, in the Advanced field, click .
The Advanced options window pops up.
Click the Scheduling button in the top right hand corner of the window and set the options:
Start Automatically (Not available for adhoc automation suites) Configure recurring executions of this suite. You can set the suite to execute on specific days or on a set interval. Remove old jobs from queue
Define a timeout period for the suite. Jobs will be automatically removed from the queue when the time-out period ends.
Set specific timeframe
Define a specific start and end time for the suite.
End sandbox when Job fails
Select this option to end sandboxes automatically when the job fails.
Note: Additional scheduling options are available when running a custom execution of a template. For additional information, see Running Custom Automation Suites.
(Available for system administrators only; not available for adhoc suites) To change the template's owner, in the top right hand corner of the screen, click Permissions and specify the Domain and Owner of this automation suite. This option determines who can access and edit the automation suite template. By default, the owner is the user who created the automation suite template, but both the template's owner and the system administrator can edit the template.
- Optionally, enter a Description for the automation suite.
Optionally, to add a label to the suite, in the Categories area, click the Labels field, select a label from the drop down list or enter a new label name, and press [Enter]. Labeling suites enables users to filter the suites in the Job Scheduling dashboard.
- Next, add a job to the automation suite.
Add jobs to an automation suite
Jobs group together tests and execute them sequentially on the same execution server.
An automation suite must have at least one job. You can select the blueprint on which the job's tests will run and also a specific execution server to execute the job's tests. An automation suite's jobs run in parallel.
Note: Jobs do not run in parallel if they exceed the number of available job slots in the execution server, or if there is a reservation conflict for the resources in the linked blueprints.
To add a job to an automation suite:
In the Create Suite Template (TestShell) page, in the Jobs area, click the button.
The Jobs area expands.
- Enter the job's name.
- Optionally, enter a Description for the job.
To define a blueprint for the job, click the Blueprint field. From the Select blueprint side pane, select the blueprint and click Done.
Note: Execution cannot be initiated until the blueprint's resources are available and the blueprint can be reserved.
Test authors can prepare tests for execution in the Job Scheduling dashboard by recommending the most appropriate blueprint for each test. Every test can be linked to one or more recommended blueprints.
If the job is associated to a blueprint that has inputs (global/requirement/additional info), those inputs are displayed under the job. You can do the following:
- Specify the input values.
- Publish a variable as an input to the user running the job. To publish a variable, click the input's publish button ().
For example, blueprint inputs "Deployment Mode" and "Deployment Type":
The job's total estimated duration is used to allocate available time slots. This comprises the estimated duration of each of the job's tests, with buffer and provisioning estimates (if the blueprint includes setup/teardown commands). Click the Duration field.
Click the Duration field.
The Set duration window pops up.
There are two different ways to specify the job's total estimated duration:
- In the Calculated method, the job's total duration includes the buffer period you define in the Set buffer field (default is 10 minutes), the total duration of the job's tests, and the provisioning period (the total setup and teardown duration if they exist in the blueprint associated with the job).
- Use the Specific method to set a specific number of weeks, days, hours, and minutes as the job's estimated duration. Note that the estimated duration cannot be less than the aggregated estimate of the job's tests. If existing, the provisioning duration is added to your estimated duration.
Jobs that exceed their estimated duration are aborted unless they are extended successfully before completion.
If a sandbox ends while a job is still running, the job is terminated. To avoid terminating jobs too early, define additional overtime that will be added to all the jobs in the system.
Jobs that enter the overtime period send a warning notification to the initiator who can try to extend the sandbox from the CloudShell Portal.
Trying to run a job using the calculated duration method while the job's tests have no estimated duration will result in an error.
To configure the job's execution settings, click the button. In the Execution Settings window, select the required settings.
Execution Servers
Select the execution server(s) that will run the job's tests:
- Specific: Select a specific execution server. You can select more than one execution server. Note that only execution servers of the type selected for the automation suite are displayed.
- Any: The execution server is selected automatically by availability
Reporting Profile
Determine what will be written in the execution report:
- None: Test results (passed/ failed/ completed/ error/ terminated) and measurements attributes
- Results: Test results (passed/ failed/ completed/ error/ terminated) and measurements attributes
- Measurements and Results: Test results (passed/ failed/ completed/ error/ terminated), transformations, text to report, measurement attributes, and captured image
- All: Every input received by the test and output sent during the test
Stop On
Determine when the job will stop:
- Fail: The job stops running when a test fails
- Error: The job stops running when an error occurs or if the test encounters an error
- Next, add tests to the job in the automation suite.
Add tests to a job
Tests in a job run sequentially in their specified order.
To add a test to a job:
In the Create Suite Template (TestShell) page, in the Jobs area, click Tests.
The Add a test side pane is displayed, showing the Local and Shared folders of your TestShell Studio.
- Click a folder to display its tests. To view a test's description and number of parameters, click the More Info button.

Aida - Time to Change
"A friend stopped talking to me, seeing me as someone damaged and dangerous."
My name is Aida and I'm diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and a type of bipolar disorder.
When I was a kid, I was very introverted and it was hard for me to make new friends due to my shyness. I had insomnia and so many fears, I was even afraid to fall asleep at night. I was also very irritable but besides all these negative things I was generous, kind and I loved smiling and making others laugh.
My illness started to show up when I was approximately 14 years old. When I was around that age I started losing friends because I didn't want to hang out with them nor do the typical teenager things, like drinking or going out partying. Furthermore, I wasn't interested in what I used to enjoy anymore such as watching TV series, reading or drawing. But the worst of all is that I stopped thinking of goals to achieve nor making plans for my future, not seeing one for myself.
Unfortunately these feelings got worse over time. One of the things I had to fight against these past few years was that I didn't accept that there was something wrong, and I was even less accepting that I had a mental health disorder. And, as I'm sure that many of you have been through, I didn't want to take medication. Although this illness was consuming me I was trying my best to get the greatest marks in school so no one could see that I was struggling that much.
I've found a path towards recovery which involves medication, therapy, support from my family and friends, writing and telling others about my story whilst helping them.
In this journey I've experienced the stigma surrounding mental illness when, for example, a friend stopped talking to me, seeing me as someone damaged and dangerous. I saw it as well when my bosses started judging me after getting a medical leave for a few months because I couldn't cope with everything. I could also notice it when I got criticized at university for not being able to do much in group projects due to being in a very bad mental state.
Even with all these difficulties, and sometimes thanks to them, I achieved some goals. I got a very high mark when I finished high school, I'm studying a degree that I really love, I worked for two and a half years in the field I like and I maintained a group of friends that help me and support me.
To finish this short summary of my story, I'd like to say to all the ones that don't suffer from mental illness: I live and contribute in the same way as you do. Therefore, please treat me like the rest and don't look or talk to me according to the stereotypes or stigma that surrounds mental illness.

Maybe Not
Free delivery worldwide
Available. Dispatched from the UK in 3 business days
When will my order arrive?
Colleen Hoover, the New York Times bestselling author of Maybe Someday, brilliantly brings to life the story of the hilarious and charismatic Warren in this new novella. When Warren has the opportunity to live with a female roommate, he instantly agrees. It could be an exciting change. Or maybe not. Especially when that roommate is the cold and seemingly calculating Bridgette. Tensions run high and tempers flare as the two can hardly stand to be in the same room together. But Warren has a theory about Bridgette: anyone who can hate with that much passion should also have the capability to love with that much passion. And he wants to be the one to test this theory. Will Bridgette find it in herself to warm her heart to Warren and finally learn to love? Maybe. Maybe not.

We are only a couple of months away from the release of Resident Evil 7 Biohazard. The trailer that premiered earlier this year caused mixed fan reactions. Some super pissed that there were no zombies anywhere to be seen, and some loving the new approach and aesthetics. Whichever side of the fence you are on, you can't deny that it pretty exciting to have the series coming back.
To celebrate the release, Gamestop has announced an exclusive Special Edition for the game. The creepiest bit of the whole thing has to be a replica of the Baker Mansion that stands at 8 inches. The mansion comes complete with creepy music box sounds and some cool looking LED lights to reveal an ominous silhouette in an upstairs window.
In addition, the special edition box comes with a dummy finger that doubles as a USB stick, a VHS box, a metal game case and a lithograph of the Baker family.
The game trailer that was reveled at E3 earlier this year featured a protagonist waking in a dark mansion, he was surrounded by creepy mannequins, a ton of roaches and a mysterious figure that looked to be the antagonist, or at least one of the antagonists. So far, Capcom has remained pretty tight-lipped about what the game is going to be about, or if any fan favorite characters will return. Back when 'Resident Evil 4' was released it managed to reinvent the wheel of familiar Resident Evil gameplay. By doing that it is still considered one of the best of the series.
The trailer for 7 looks to be very different. While we wait, lets take comfort in the fact that different is sometimes the best way to go. The last couple of Resident Evil games amped up the action in place of the more popular survival horror mechanics. Maybe, this entry will take us back to basics and change the landscape once again.
Resident Evil 7 Biohazard's Special Edition will set you back $179.99 and can be pre ordered over at Gamestop.

I have a card today created for Designs by Ryn. I used Ryn's cool Seahorse Set in a clean & simple design.
I masked off an area with scrap cardstock and blended Peacock Feathers & Mowed Lawn Distress Inks. Using the mini Circle Explosion Stencil from TCW I added the dots with Picked Raspberry & Peacock Feathers DI.
The Seahorse (all three are in the set) were stamped on watercolour paper with black Stazon Ink & coloured with my Tombow markers. I added a little glitter as well. The sentiment is by Impression Obsession B13027.
If you get a chance please stop by my teammate's - Miranda's, Eileen's & our new member Wendy's Blogs and Ryn's Facebook page for inspiration :)
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day,

Only in New York
Curated from hundreds of thousands of photos from The New York Times' archives Only in New York brings together the most memorable, poignant, and historic images of the Big Apple. This beautiful gift book celebrates New York in a way that will be treasured by native New Yorkers and tourists alike.
Read More
The New York Times is the world's foremost news organization, but it is very much a hometown paper, too. Since the inception of the camera, Times photographers have captured every newsworthy event--and many of the most iconic and intimate moments--that together document the very spirit and essence of New York City.
These 500 photos are selected and paired in clever, humorous, and poignant diptychs that bring the city to life as you could only see in NYC--from Broadway to Yankee Stadium, nightlife to street life, skyscrapers to subways. And since the turn of the last century, NY Times photographers have been visually recording the vast, and vastly interesting and entertaining, mix of people, places, and institutions that provide New York with its reputation as the city that occasionally dozes but never closes. This collection of their work spans more than a century, providing a vivid chronicle of metropolitan life at its most vibrant. Most of all, of course, there are the people and the neighborhoods they inhabit.
Through the work of such celebrated New York Times photographers as Damon Winter, Neal Boenzi, Fred R. Conrad, Ruth Fremson, Vincent Laforet, Michelle Agins, Todd Heisler, Chang W. Lee, Barton Silverman, Sara Krulwich, Michelle Agins, Tyler Hicks, and many more, the spirit of the city is captured in this extraordinary book. Their ability to capture the familiar in original ways, and the seldom-seen in surprising ones, gives this book the look and feel of a true original. Only in New York is a celebration of New York City and its people--and is sure to be treasured by native New Yorkers, tourists, and anyone who aspires to "make it there."

Mary Sanchez
Born and raised in Kansas City, Mo., with family roots in Mexico, Mary Sanchez brings an uncommon perspective to the issues that tend to divide Americans into groups of "us" and "them." A reporter foremost, Sanchez has spent years covering immigration, schools and other volatile beats for The Kansas City Star.
Now an editorial columnist for the Star, Sanchez understands that Latinos in the United States — now the largest minority group in the country — make up a number of diverse and complex communities. Sanchez knows that commentary on immigration, culture and politics needs to reflect that fact — the one-size-fits-all approach no longer works.
Across the United States, some Latinos are prospering and gaining political power, while others are running up against a changing mood in the American public. Making sense of all these currents requires more than just retelling stories or sharing of thoughts. It requires a reporter's instinct for discovering how issues play out on the street, at work and in the lives of ordinary people.
Mary Sanchez strives for this cross-cultural analysis in her writing. She pushes readers to an understanding of the issues from all sides, and provides an incisive, compelling voice to illuminate these issues in new ways.

Well, it's been pushed back again, but definitely for the best. I'm hoping for next spring. My editor is very thorough and really cares about what I'm doing and I wonder where she's been all my life!
I'd hoped to release for my annual Halloween party, and even though the release isn't happening, I'm still going keep the novel theme this year. It will be a welcome to GB MacRae's world party (and I'm also turning 40 in November and have always wanted a birthday party where everyone dresses up as my characters).
How will people be able to do that, you wonder? I'm going to post excerpts and maybe a short story or two on here. The invitations will have my business cards in them, so people will know where to go to find information. Yay!

This peaceful, serene, and eco-friendly homestay in Sakleshpur, called Mugilu is about a four-hour drive from Bangalore, and perfect for a quiet getaway from city life.
Escape With Your Pals And Pooches To This Pet-Friendly Homestay In Sakleshpur
Plantation Diaries
Mugilu is the last estate in a row of places, and you will be welcomed by Shunti, one of the resident canines, who is incredibly friendly and will play tour guide when you walk around the estate or head to nearby fields. You can also take your own dog{s} along.
Unlike a traditional homestay where everyone is in one building, there are four individual and very private cottages set across a verdant coffee and pepper plantation. The place has been designed and set up to go with the ecology – nothing jarring or post modern here, just stone, wood and earthy tones. Each cottage has its own balcony that affords a fantastic view, bird songs as well as tiny visitors by way of flying insects. Each cottage boasts a different colour theme, basic rustic furniture – rough wooden bed and chairs and table in the balcony, and stone floored bathrooms with big glass windows so you can commune with nature even while bathing. You will surely forget about your troubles here!
Back To Basics
With no television or air conditioning, {forget WiFi}, and limited phone signal, this place is all about getting in touch with nature and leaving gadgets, technology, and modernity behind. Even the hot water for bathing is heated on a fire and then piped into the rooms, for a limited period of time each day. The package per night includes three meals, with tea and snacks available for a little extra, that will even be brought to you room. But breakfast, lunch, and dinner are taken in the common dining and leisure area, and honestly, it's so pretty and peaceful there, you will probably want to hang out late into the night, like we did, before taking the short walk back to your cottage.
At Your Service
The food is hearty, local Kannadiga fare, and a real spread, with a good number of dishes likes akki roti, chicken curry and even a few North Indian favourites. The staff is sweet, hospitable, and keep the place running smoothly, even with the owner-couple, Sapna and Chandan, who are major travellers, are not around. But when they're around, you will be in for a treat in the form of conversation and stories around life, travel, adventure sports, and wellness. And of course you will learn more about the philosophy behind the way they run the place, and try to maintain balance with nature.
Nature In Sync
Don't miss taking an early morning walk on the hillside behind the estate, and it also makes for a perfect spot to view the gorgeous sunsets. Of course, if you're feeling too lazy or just not up to leaving Mugilu, you can hang out on your private balcony and enjoy the views, silence, sounds of nature, and find your center once more.

God's Gifts
Entries for our annual contest were a show-and-tell about how kids use the gifts they've been given.
How are you using the gifts (time, talents and treasures) God has given you to help others around you?
That was the question we posed for our 7th annual Kids' Contest. Children from preschool through high school could enter. There were prizes at stake—up to three $100 awards were given for each medium in each age category.
A panel of judges made up of Thrivent employees pored over all of the entries to determine the winners, which you'll see on the following pages. That process made us realize that we were winners too, because the heartfelt essays and drawings the kids submitted in response to the question warmed our hearts and inspired us.
You can see all of the entries, including the full essays, videos and artwork, at Thrivent.com/contest. Keep in mind that what you see here in excerpted form and online is exactly what was submitted, including grammar and spelling slip-ups.
The financial professional's views are based on his personal experience; everyone's experience will vary.

Minnie Dlamini has been doing this entertainment thing for a long time and her latest throwback picture proves this. The media personality was thrust into superstardom when she bagged a role as a presenter on Live alongside Bonang Matheba but before that, she was a pageant girl.
Taking to Instagram, Minnie shared a throwback picture of her Little Miss South Africa pageant programme when she was the titleholder in 2002.
"Talk about a throwback. This was the program for Little Miss South Africa 2003. I was handing over my crown to my successor. I had the most incredible year being on TV for the first time, traveling out of the country to the US for the first time. Meeting uTata Nelson Mandela 🙏🏾 This was the time I figured who I wanted to be. That 1212-year-old girl was fearless!!! And I try every day to make her proud!!! 💎 #PageantGirl,"she wrote. Take a look at the post below:
A couple of days ago, Minnie revealed that she wants to spend more time behind the camera during an interview on The Drive on Metro FM she said; "I've still got an appetite for television, sort of being on camera, but I do think in the next couple of years, I'll be moving very far away from on-camera and really dedicating most of my time to production."

The Catholic Church has a long history of opposing racism. But that opposition is not just institutional – it's found in the courageous lives of men and women who have risked everything to serve the oppressed and alienated.
One such person was St. Katharine Drexel, one of the first U.S.-born saints.
Born in Philadelphia in 1858, St. Katharine gave up a life of wealth to serve God as a religious sister. She founded the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, dedicated specifically to serving and teaching Native American and African American communities.
The sisters would go on to found nearly 100 schools serving Native American reservations and Southern African American communities, both rural and inner city.
This work led to opposition and even threats of violence from racist groups.
According to one account, in the 1920s, the KKK "threatened to tar and feather the white past(or) at one of Drexel's schools and bomb his church" in Beaumont, Texas.
"The nuns prayed and days later, a tornado came and destroyed the headquarters of the KKK killing two of their members. The Sisters were never threatened again."
St. Katharine Drexel is the patron saint against racism.
