Have you seen the light that i saw?
Have you felt the breeze as you opened this door?
Because if you did, you'd understand why
I had to leave before the day that i die.
I've carried these sins too far in this road.
So i drowned them in the ocean and got on the safe boat.
I have to admit, the journey is quite difficult.
But the only thing that drives me is all of this guilt.
True, I do not know if my sins have been washed away.
Or have they sunk down as part of the ocean's clay.
But I do have faith that God is forgiving,
And all i have to do is continue living,
Repenting all the mistakes that I have done
To earn a high place in our sacred Heaven.
Just another apology.
Have you seen the light that i saw?

The Quds Press news agency reported that Hamas foiled a Fatah's seditious plot within the Gaza Strip.
Hamas has named PA General Majed Faraj as the mastermind behind the plan. Faraj's plans were aimed at undermining the internal situation in Gaza.
Hamas has also provided the names of the suspects involved in the scheme to a number of Islamic countries. According to the report, most of the suspects are concentrated in the West Bank, with a bunch also operating from other Arab countries.
Fatah Intelligence Officer Zaki Rashad Al-Sakani who is listed as an operative was recently arrested in Egypt.
The Palestinian Authority that governs parts of the West Bank is led by Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party. The PA government used to govern Gaza until Hamas took control from Fatah in 2007 through a bloody civil war.

My son is 16 years old, he used to be a lively and cheerful person, but he became very quiet recently. He likes to talk to me and his mother about what's happening on campus before. As soon as he got home, he went to his room and lay down on the bed with his new iPhone 7. But I think he's got something wrong lately . As soon as he got home, he went to his room and lay down on the bed with his new mobile phone. I tried to talk to him, but he didn't seem to like it. Oh my God, what's wrong with my child? Did he fall in love? Or adolescent children like this? Hope to get your help. – Dave Asher

Deportivo de La Coruna had a couple of seasons in the sun, lighting up the Champions League with superb attacking play. Here, PSG raced to a 3-0 lead at the fantastically named Estadio Riazor (watch out for a brilliant goal from Laurent Leroy, and a fresh-faced Mikel Arteta) but Deportivo realised that with 33 minutes left, they may as well give it a go. Four goals, all headers, meant the Spaniards pulled off the most unlikely of comebacks. Brilliant how the noise from the home crowd cranks up a notch with every goal.

Zika Spraying Could Wipe Out 13 Percent of U.S. Honeybee Colonies
Pesticides sprayed in the southern U.S. to stop the spread of the Zika virus could turn the nation's honeybees into collateral damage.
Ticks and Mosquitoes Bringing More Diseases—What Can We Do?
By Joyce Sakamoto and Shelley Whitehead
Cases of vector-borne disease have more than doubled in the U.S. since 2004, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently reported, with mosquitoes and ticks bearing most of the blame.
Mosquitoes, long spreaders of malaria and yellow fever, have more recently spread dengue, Zika and Chikungunya viruses, and caused epidemic outbreaks, mainly in U.S. territories. The insects are also largely responsible for making West Nile virus endemic in the continental U.S.

Al Gore: Climate Changes Health
Today we face a challenging political climate, but the climate crisis shouldn't be political. It is not only the greatest existential crisis we face: it is also causing a global health emergency, where the stakes are life and death.
Scientists Just Documented First Case of Zika Spread Through Physical Contact
A mysterious Zika case in Utah has been solved and it shows we still don't know everything about the virus.
Back in July, a 38-year-old man stumped experts when he was diagnosed with the Zika virus, even though he hadn't traveled to any Zika-infected areas or had sexual contact with someone who did. He also lived in Salt Lake City, an area not considered a hospitable environment for the Aedes Aegypti mosquito that transmits the virus.
So far, the only ways Zika is known to be transmitted is through a bite from an infected mosquito, sexual contact with an infected person, contact with infected blood or a pregnant mother to her baby.
#Zika Goes Viral in the U.S. https://t.co/LvG1OOWP2q @NRDC @Columbia @earthinstitute @sierraclub #Rio2016— EcoWatch (@EcoWatch)1470403676.0
After tracking how this man could have gotten the virus, they discovered that he had visited a 78-year-old friend in a Utah hospital, just seven to 10 days before his symptoms began.
Eight days before the elderly man was admitted to the hospital, he had returned from a 3-week trip to the southwest coast of Mexico where it was learned he contracted Zika from mosquitoes, according to a new paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
During the 38-year-old's visit, the paper says he helped the nurse re-position his friend and had wiped the man's eyes. That's it.
The paper concludes:
"Given the very high level of viremia in Patient 1, infectious levels of virus may have been present in sweat or tears, both of which Patient 2 contacted without gloves. Transmission of the infection through a mosquito bite appears to be unlikely, since aedes species that are known to transmit ZIKV have not been detected in the Salt Lake City area. In addition, the second case occurred 7 to 10 days after contact with the index patient in the hospital, which implicates direct contact during hospitalization."
So can Zika be transmitted through someone's sweat or tears, and how easily?
In a study published on Sept. 6, traces of the virus were detected in the tears of mice, but there hasn't been any studies conducted yet on sweat.
"It should not be able to pass through unbroken skin," Sankar Swaminathan, the chief of infections disease at University of Utah Health Care, and first author on the paper, told The Atlantic. Meaning the man probably either had a cut somewhere on his skin, or he inadvertently touched his eyes, nose or mouth, and the virus entered his body.
What scientists are now looking into with this case is the severity of the elderly man's infection. Four days after he was admitted into the hospital he died and, while he was elderly, was reportedly not immunocompromised.
His blood had 200 million copies of the virus per milliliter—with a typical infection you'd expect to see hundreds of thousands, and 1 million would be considered high, Swaminathan said, which lead to progressive respiratory and renal failure, metabolic acidosis and hepatitis just before his death.
A factor being considered is that because he had contracted dengue in his past, it's possible remaining antibodies from that somehow worsened his infection. He also may have had a genetic immune deficiency that just happened to be very specific to this virus, and the fact that he had a very high viral load of the virus in his system is what likely led to it being transmitted in this way, Swaminathan said.
There have been 13 fatal cases in adults—not counting deaths from Zika-related Guillain-Barré—many of which had pre-existing conditions. While this case is definitely scary, mosquitoes and sexual transmission are still the main worries in the spread of the virus.
"For the general public, this doesn't really change very much," Swaminathan said.
Millions of Honeybees Killed in Attempt to Prevent Zika
Aerial spraying of the pesticide naled in a South Carolina county, done in an attempt to prevent Zika-infected mosquitoes from gaining a foothold in the state, resulted instead in the massacre of millions of honeybees.
On one farm in Summerville, South Carolina, 46 hives were wiped out instantly, killing 2.5 million bees.Flowertown Bee Farm and Supplies Facebook
While 43 Zika cases have been reported in the state, all but one were from travelers who were infected abroad. The other was a sexually transmitted case. No one in South Carolina has been locally infected by a mosquito. Nevertheless, county officials sprayed a 15-square mile area early Sunday morning. Dorchester County officials said they announced the spraying on Friday and via a Facebook post on Saturday, but many residents said they received less than 10 hours notice.
43 cases of Zika reported in South Carolina to date. Credit: South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control
The scenario reprises the days of DDT spraying that prompted Rachel Carson's seminal book, Silent Spring. The 1962 book by the former U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service writer detailed the disastrous effects on birds from the widespread use of synthetic pesticides following World War II. The leading culprit, DDT, was shown to cause reproductive failure in bald eagles, ospreys, brown pelicans and peregrine falcons. Indiscriminate aerial spraying laid a film of the pesticide where birds would pick it up.
Naled, the pesticide used in South Carolina, is an organophosphate first registered for use as a pesticide in 1959. Organophosphates were developed in the 1940s as biological warfare agents. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) currently authorizes use of naled for mosquito control. It is currently being applied by aerial spraying to 16 million acres of the mainland U.S., including highly populated areas. The EPA says that the chemical does not pose risks to people, although it recommends staying indoors during aerial spraying.
However, the agency appears to underplay the risks to honeybees. Its website states:
Applications made between dusk and dawn, while bees are not typically foraging, can reduce exposure to honey bees.
Although we do not anticipate significant exposure to bees, beekeepers can reduce exposure to bee colonies even more by covering colonies and preventing bees from exiting colonies during designated treatment periods, or if possible, relocating colonies to an untreated site. Providing clean sources of food (supplemental sugar water and protein diets) and clean drinking water to honey bee colonies during application can further reduce exposure.
Contrary to the EPA's recommendation, however, the spraying in South Carolina took place from 6:30 - 8:30 a.m.
Toxipedia, the online toxicology encyclopedia, is far more circumspect on the potential dangers of naled. They call it a severe skin and eye irritant, and cite a study that showed exposure to the chemical resulted in chronic nervous system damage in dogs and rats. Toxipedia also states that naled is "highly toxic to many bird species especially Canadian geese" and affects reproduction in Mallard ducks. They also note that its use "puts many endangered species at risk." With respect to honeybees, they couldn't be more clear:
It is toxic to bees and stoneflies (#EXTOXNET, 1996).
In April, EcoWatch reported that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) was silencing its own bee scientists. A Feb. 7, 2014 story documented the EPA's approval of two other pesticides known to be highly toxic to bees. The EPA's action came despite the concerns of beekeepers facing colony collapse.
On one farm in Summerville, South Carolina, 46 hives were wiped out instantly, killing 2.5 million bees. Compounding the problem was the weather: hot, 90 degree temperatures caused bees to leave their hives in order to cool down. That meant the bees were active during the widespread spraying.
As many residents became aware of the insecticide spraying, they tried to contact Dorchester County Mosquito Abatement by phone, as the notices had stated. No one answered. A resident who has started a petition on change.org wrote, "To our knowledge not one phone call was returned and no answers were given." The petition asks for the spraying to be stopped, for more information on the chemicals used and for a public forum to discuss their concerns. By Tuesday, Dorchester County had issued an apology, but there is no word to date on whether they will compensate beekeepers for the destruction of their hives.
The honeybee genocide in South Carolina came as a study published on Monday by the National Academy of Sciences links high demand and federal subsidies for corn and soybean crops to the loss of grassland in the Great Plains that bees need to survive. The study says that expansion of these crops in the Northern Great Plains is "altering the landscape in ways that are seemingly less conducive to beekeeping." The area in the study is home to more than 40 percent of the U.S. bee colonies.
Honeybees are nature's best pollinators. Without them, important crops including almonds, blueberries, apples, asparagus and broccoli would be threatened. It is estimated that bees are responsible for some $19 billion of U.S. crop production. The agricultural impact of the South Carolina disaster is not yet known.
Health Officials Warn Zika Could Spread Across More Gulf States
Zika could extend its reach from Miami to Gulf States such as Texas and Louisiana, National Institute of Health official Anthony Fauci said in an interview Monday.
This warning comes just days after the Center for Disease Control expanded on its first ever domestic travel warning by advising pregnant women not to travel to Miami Beach due to the spread of Zika. Fauci highlighted the increased risk of Zika in Louisiana because of recent flooding, as standing water provides an ideal breeding ground for mosquitos.
In many Southern cities, mosquito season is getting longer thanks to climate change, which is a threat multiplier for Zika and other vector-borne diseases like malaria and dengue.

FDA Approves Genetically Modified Mosquitoes to Combat Zika in Florida
Amid news of a Zika outbreak in the Miami area, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Center for Veterinary Medicine (FDA-CVM) has cleared the experimental release of genetically modified (GMO) mosquitoes in the Florida Keys to help combat the virus.
Health Officials Confirm 4 Zika Cases in Florida Likely Spread by Local Mosquitoes
Four Florida residents have been infected with Zika in the first known case of local transmission of the virus in the continental U.S., according to health officials.
female Aedes aegypti mosquitoJames Gathany/CDC, 2006
A new study shows that climate change is increasing the length of mosquito season in the U.S. thus increasing the risk of Zika. However, Tom Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said widespread transmission of Zika in the U.S. is unlikely.
What can be done to prevent the Zika virus? Here's some advice from a Natural Resources Defense Council blog post:
Drenching our homes and communities with harmful pesticides will not address Zika. Pesticides may seem like an attractive solution, but these chemicals must be used judiciously and strategically to avoid harming the very people we seek to protect (Duprey et al 2008). Aerial or even backpack spraying of ultra-low volume pesticides has had a very hard time achieving effective control of these particular mosquitoes, which have proven almost impossible to get rid of. Instead, we need a range of tactics to help prevent mosquito bites and disease transmission (CDC 2016 prevention):
- Wear protective clothing such as long sleeves and long pants.
- Apply personal mosquito repellant, such as EPA recommended formulations in the morning and early evening (CDC 2016 prevention; EWG 2016 on Zika). Try to pick products using minimal risk ingredients, if appropriate.
- Use window and door screens to keep mosquitoes out of homes.
- Every week, inspect the inside and outside of your home for standing water and eliminate it. This includes flowerpots, tires, buckets, planters, toys, birdbaths, empty garbage cans and lids, etc.
- Stop infected people from getting further mosquito bites to prevent spreading the disease to more mosquitoes.

Salomon S/Max Blast 2018-19
The new S/Max Blast is a part of Salomon's concept to open up the thrill - the 'blast' - of high speed, piste performance to all skiers. This particular model is the 'hero' model at the top of that range. And as with most heroes, it can be a little intimidating - but also lots of fun if you can handle the ride.
The superb balance between agility and stability makes them piste-ripping machines. And the blast of speed that Salomon want to spread will come very naturally to most skiers, as the S/Max Blast impart confidence.
Things can become harder when the skier starts to lose a bit of energy; these skis can punish laziness and poor technique. They demand to be driven hard and with precision, and reward effort as readily as they punish sloppiness.
The tails are aggressive, and as one tester put it; "You need to finish your turns." These skis will kick you into the backseat if you don't, but damn, they are so much fun when you get it right.
Think of them as keeping you honest; anyone who wants to achieve consistently great technique will find the S/Max Blast a coach and training partner. And will be amply rewarded with the 'blast' of control and speed. Anyone looking to cruise should probably look elsewhere.

A chef is the consummate professional in the kitchen, able to produce the most delicious and appealing meals which are the result of skill, knowledge, experience, a genuine love of food, artistic flair and natural cooking talent. A chef instinctively knows how to pair spices and seasoning with meats and vegetables to create a meal which is unique and individual to his or her personal talents. A chef will turn any meal into an occasion which is relaxed and memorable, and can be relied on to take the worry off your shoulders when catering for special events or larger parties where the meal has to be perfect.
A chef is the inventive and driving force behind many catering companies, as it he or she who creates the dishes to be served, compiles the menus and oversees all aspects of the preparation, cooking and presentation of the food. A chef may work alone or supervise other staff members in restaurant or hotel kitchens where the overall responsibility for the provision of all meals falls on his shoulders. His specialisations may also include the preparation of salads, desserts and pastries. He needs to ensure that the quality of the food which leaves his kitchen is up to specific and clearly stated standards and that this remains constant at all times. He is responsible for creating new dishes and menus, either according to seasonal availability of ingredients or simply to ensure that the menu selection does not become stale and uninteresting. He may be responsible for following general menu trends in his area or create highly unique menus to attract a constant flow of new and repeat customers to his restaurant.
As he has overall responsibility for the kitchen in which he works, a chef is also responsible for ensuring that the kitchen and working areas are kept to a high standard of cleanliness and safety. Although he will not do the actual cleaning himself, he will supervise the regular cleaning and disinfecting of all equipment and utensils used, and ensure that the staff are working according to agreed hygiene practices, especially when handling and serving food.
Due to the nature of his work, a chef may be required to work outside of normal business hours, either preparing breakfasts or food to be served later in the day, or during evening restaurant hours, where he will remain until the last customer has left the restaurant, after which he will supervise the final cleanup and prepare the food order list for the next day. A chef has to think on his feet, and be able to make fast and well-judged decisions in times of crisis, such as equipment breaking down in the middle of an evening, power outages or unplanned shortages of any item, requiring alternative menu choices to be provided.
Sometimes things simply go wrong. Every restaurant has experienced food being returned by unhappy customers and it is often the chef's responsibility to resolve the issue in a manner which brings the customer back to the restaurant rather than simply walking away. We all know that one unhappy customer will spread the word to many more people, and no restaurant can afford to lose customers they have never even served once. Happy customers will bring their friends and colleagues to the restaurant and the reputation of the establishment will spread far beyond the reach of any advertising campaigns. Happy customers are the best advertisement any restaurant can have.
Catering services need chefs and cooks in order to run their businesses. Whether it is preparing and serving a formal three-course meal, catering for a buffet-style function, preparing food platters or organising and catering for an outdoor event including a spit-braai, potjie- or braai-style meal or even cold picnic baskets, a chef or cook is central to the proceedings. These are the people who plan, calculate and order the ingredients and drinks, prepare and cook the food and ensure that everyone is served on time. They take the strain off the host and allow him or her to relax and enjoy the event and mingle freely with the guests without worrying about the food. And, of course, catering chefs are vital to the success of special occasions such as weddings, bar mitzvahs or bat mitzvahs, birthday parties, anniversaries, graduation parties and other celebratory functions, as well as more sombre events such as memorial and remembrance services . For more information on catering services, see our catering articles.
Whatever occasion you need to cater for, there is a chef available to meet your needs. They are becoming more visible and easier to find online through their websites and by using search engines such as Uptasker. Uptasker is an extremely useful and user-friendly site for finding the right supplier quickly and efficiently in your geographical area, together with their online ratings and customer reviews. Not only can you find links to their websites, but have the option to obtain and compare quotes from various suppliers from one location. Alternatively, you can search through magazines, newspapers, flyers, the Yellow Pages or through word of mouth referrals. Always check their ratings and customer reviews, as these will give you valuable information on their reliability, range of services and foods, adaptability to different needs and general pricing. Check sample menus, if available, and ability to cater for specific needs such as vegetarian-only, if required. Always ensure that there is a clear written understanding of the exact menu to be provided, whether it includes soft or alcoholic drinks, timing and budget constraints, in order to avoid possible misunderstandings or omissions on the day itself.
If you are planning a special event and don't want to deal with the cooking yourself, especially if you are catering for large numbers or for a very formal event, your best option would be to hire a catering chef who will not only take the worry of providing a delicious meal off your shoulders but also allow you to relax and enjoy the occasion fully with your guests.

Melinda (Lynn) J. Heufelder Ostiguy of Newport, left this life on Wednesday August 15, 2018 lovingly surrounded by her family and moved on to her next adventure (but would have preferred to stick around a bit longer if she had more of a choice).
Born in Washington, D.C., she was the daughter of the late Mary Elizabeth Hickey and grew up in Long Branch, New Jersey before going off to Emerson College where she earned her a B.A. in Sociology. There she met her first husband, John Heufelder, who she traveled with as a navy wife and they had three daughters. They divorced in 1980.
She then rose to the challenge of raising three daughters as a single mom. Lynn decided to pursue higher education and went on to earn not one, but two masters degrees. A Masters of Education in Guidance Counseling from Providence College and a Masters of Social Work at Boston University.
Lynn is well known for her passionate work as the Executive Director of the Women's Resource Center of Newport and Bristol County from 1982 to 1995. Through her vision and stewardship the organization grew from a small team of volunteers working to provide immediate support for domestic violence survivors, to a large scale organization which helped hundreds of women regain their lives. She initiated programs to establish ongoing education and prevention service programs for children who witness as a way to stop domestic violence for the next generation. She brought together community partners in a capital campaign that lead to a permanent home for the center's offices on Touro Street in Newport. As member of the RI Coalition Against Domestic Violence she was proud to be one of the many extraordinary women who helped change laws to protect women and change societal views of domestic violence from the late 1970's through the 90's. She was honored for her work by the Women's Resource Center in 2002 as one of the founding mothers.
Lynn found fulfillment in helping others and went on to work as a therapist at Harvard Pilgrim Health Center, East Bay Mental Health Center and in her own independent LICSW therapy practice from 2004 until her retirement in 2017.
Lynn was a passionate learner and reader who loved to study words, learned to paint in her 60's and studied Spanish just for fun. She inspired her daughters with her passion for learning and her determination to pursue her goals.
Lynn loved to swim in the ocean, sail on Narragansett Bay and travel to our National Parks with Stephen, her husband and partner for 34 years (but not by plane, thank you). She was known to make Christmas a very special experience even when times were hard and found her greatest joy in the company of her children and grandchildren whenever she could.
Lynn is survived by her best friend and husband Stephen P. Ostiguy and her daughters Amy L. McKinnon of Danvers, MA, Gretchen A. Driscoll of Beverly, MA and Erin J. Rodrigues and her husband Michael of Portsmouth. Lynn was the mother-in-law of the late John Driscoll.
Lynn was the very proud "Mimi" to her beloved grandchildren, Maxwell, Brian and Lauren McKinnon, John Stephen and Liam Driscoll, and Noah, Henry and Landon Rodrigues. She also leaves her sister Rosemary Kniffen, of New Braunfels, TX.
Calling hours will be held Monday, August 20, 2018 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM in the Memorial Funeral Home, 375 Broadway, Newport. Her Memorial Mass will be celebrated Tuesday at 10:00 AM in St. Joseph's Church, Broadway at Mann Avenue, Newport.
Donations in her memory may be made to the Women's Resource Center of Newport and Bristol County, 114 Touro Street, Newport, RI 02840.

Sportswear rides on fashion wave
While sports clothing has become a highly lucrative market, retailers are vulnerable to the vagaries of fashion and could regret turning their backs on genuine athletes
There has been a significant change in the sports market over recent years driven by a number of key factors, including the high-profile media coverage of sport, the huge marketing budgets of the global brands and the increasing fashion appeal of sports clothing.
But the growing interest from teenagers in sports brands as fashion wear means that the category is seeing continued growth, and this is contributing to a decline in the equipment market. It also reflects the fact that traditional games, such as racket sports, have lost out to new forms of exercise, such as aerobics, gym-based exercise, yoga, pilates and kick boxing, all of which require few, if any, equipment purchases. Sports retailers in some countries, such as France and Italy, still benefit from the ski season, as few British consumers buy their own ski apparel and prefer to rent equipment from resorts.
The latest data from Mintel shows that the UK sports goods market was worth an estimated &£4.5m in 2003, an increase of 3.6 per cent on the previous year. The report shows that 75.4 per cent of spending on sports goods was through the sports specialists channel, which illustrates the stranglehold that the likes of JJB Sports, the John David Group and Blacks Leisure have. The department and variety store channel was in second place, accounting for 6.9 per cent of spending.
This is largely reflecting the strong sports offer available at the John Lewis Partnership. Sales through clothing specialists, at 5.8 per cent, includes the contribution from UK stalwart Marks & Spencer and its View From range, which is technically focused yet relatively affordable.
Sports retailers are important parts in the fashion and leisure wear market as a whole, not just in terms of clothing and footwear for sports use. Adolescents' desire to buy into the emotional aspirations of sport continues to be one of the driving forces behind the UK sports market. As a result, most of the leading players have tapped into this particular consumer segment.
The European retail sports market is dominated by powerful international brands, many of which have their origins in the US. The big sports names often have a portfolio of smaller, niche brands as well, giving them greater coverage. For instance, Reebok owns the Rockport outdoor footwear and Greg Norman golf clothing ranges. Rockport also has the licence for the designer footwear brand Ralph Lauren.
In 2003, Nike tapped into the trend for retro footwear, acquiring classic trainer company Converse, whose Twenties' design Chuck Norris trainers have recently enjoyed a resurgence in popularity. Nike also owns cult casual wear brand Hurley International.
These main brands have all moved into retail in recent years, reinforcing their presence with a network of hi-tech concept stores. Nike has developed the Nike Town model, of which there are 18 worldwide, including European outlets in London and Berlin. These stores offer interactive areas and a range of specialist services, as well as a range of branded goods.
Nike is also developing a network of franchised stores in Europe and has stores in France, Germany and the UK. However, in early 2004, it announced the closure of its two French stores after a year's trading, following a dispute with its French franchisee. German brand Puma opened its first standalone store in California in 1999, and now has stores in big European cities, including Milan, Rome, London and Paris.
Fila, the Italian brand, operates the Fila Sport Life Store network, the first of which opened in Milan in 2001, followed by stores in Paris and Tokyo.
To a large degree the UK sector's strong performance in the past five years reflects this nation's love affair with spectator sports, sporting celebrities and US fashion trends. It is clear that a relatively limited amount of sports apparel is bought for participation reasons, which highlights the vulnerability of UK sports retailers to the vagaries of fashion and the possibly transient obsession with celebrities.
The strength of demand for sports gear and equipment is one of the positive aspects about trading in this sector. To some degree, it insulates sales from changes in pricing, consumer income and other economic influences. For instance, golf clubs, mountaineering equipment and running shoes all tend to be bought either because they need replacing or upgrading or because the purchaser has just taken up the sport – not simply because they have fallen in price or for other monetary reasons.
However, many of the British sports chains target sports spectators and followers of fashion rather than bona fide athletes, yet if the appetite for sports brands and styles softens, this could leave many companies exposed.
Moreover, as multiple chains have expanded it has forced independents out of business, which has reduced the choice of shops for genuine sports people seeking expert customer advice and service relating to high-specification buys. They have turned to niche outlets, one-off shops or distributors connected to public sports centres and clubs. Mintel believes that if sports brands do fall out of favour, the high street chains will find it hard to win back this important custom.

Disconnecting from work, an issue that should be regulated
Is a worker entitled to disconnect the digital devices that connect him/her to the company after finishing work? In France, the answer is yes. In Spain, it is unclear, due to the lack of regulation.
Since the passing and publication of Law 2016-188 of August 8, 2016 (modifying the Worker's Code), French law recognizes and structures a worker's right to digital disconnection from his/her company after finishing work.
The current French Worker's Code states that employers are required to negotiate: "the implementation of means to regulate the use of digital devices, in order to respect workers' rest periods and vacation, as well as their personal and family life".

Target: Dr. Wijam Simachaya, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of the Kingdom of Thailand
Goal: Stop mass amounts of mismanaged plastic waste from killing marine animals by minimizing the use of plastic.
A pilot whale that washed ashore in Thailand tragically died after five days in the care of veterinarians, who removed 17 pounds of plastic from the whale's stomach. They pulled about 80 soaking wet plastic trash bags from inside the whale. Plastic debris is a global problem and is massively dangerous to wildlife—especially marine animals, because so much of this waste ends up in the ocean, where these animals mistake it for food. This is what scientists at the Thailand Department of Marine and Coastal Services say is the likely cause of this pilot whale's death. As Nick Mallos of the Ocean Conservancy states, "Whether it's a straw or whether it's a bottle cap, those items can be eaten by animals, and they pose threats through getting stuck in their digestive tracts. It can tear their stomachs. So these products in their entirety are problematic, but what's equally, if not even more, concerning is that over time these materials are in the ocean, they begin to break up into smaller and smaller pieces."
According to a study in the journal Science, Thailand was among the six countries with the most "mismanaged plastic waste" in 2010. In light of the example of this whale's death—which is one of the hundreds of thousands of marine deaths caused by plastic that go largely unnoticed by humans—many are calling on Thailand's government to take action to reduce plastic by taxing either producers or consumers. As Enric Sala, a marine ecologist with National Geographic, points out, "Every minute [there] is the equivalent of a garbage truck full of plastic going into the ocean. The problem is so huge, but the solution is easy. We can stop plastic from getting into the ocean, and this has to happen at different levels." Sign below to demand that Thailand do its part and reduce its plastic waste to save our oceans.
Dear Dr. Simachaya,
The horrific death of a pilot whale that washed ashore on the beaches of Thailand with 17 pounds of plastic lodged in its stomach is indicative of the massive threat posed to our ocean environments and marine life by plastic waste. This threat cannot continue to go unchecked. According to marine ecologist Enric Sala, "Every minute [there] is the equivalent of a garbage truck full of plastic going into the ocean." Thailand must do its part to help solve this problem.
A study reported that Thailand was one of the top countries with "mismanaged plastic waste" in the year 2010. This problem is rampant in the Asia-Pacific region in particular, and it is therefore your responsibility to ensure that your country does its part. Now is the time to reduce Thailand's plastic waste and ensure that it is better managed, by imposing taxes either on companies that produce these plastics or on the consumers who use them. I urge you to protect our environment for future generations, and to save the lives of the innocent creatures being killed by human waste. Please take steps immediately to reduce Thailand's plastic use and keep our oceans clean.

Your master bedroom is your haven. It's where you go to relax and refresh, and gain the mental and physical energy to tackle the next day. Sadly, when it comes to home renovations, we often focus on kitchens and baths and neglect the ever-important master bedroom. Give your master bedroom the love and attention it deserves. Here are some must-have master bedroom features to include in your home remodeling plans.
1 – Lighting Diversity
Lighting is one of the must-have master bedroom features. Your master bedroom should offer both natural and artificial lighting options. Natural light is important for health and wellness, so include windows that allow in sunlight during the day. In the evening hours, artificial lighting in the room should be strategically placed to offer warmth and utility. By maximizing both types of lighting, your bedroom can be comfortable and relaxing at any time of day.
2 – Walk-in Closet
Walk-in closets are a must-have for any master bedroom. Not only is the space great to have, it's also a huge selling feature that adds instant value to your home. Instead of standard wire racks, opt for custom shelving that makes the closet a stand-out feature in the room. As with the rest of the room, don't forget the lighting!
3 – Master Bath
Master baths are an absolute must-have feature these days. And,…we do't mean just any attached bathroom. Your master bath should stand really stand out and be an extension of the relaxing space of your bedroom. Consider enhanced features such as soaking tubs, multiple shower heads, heated towel racks, modern toilets, and more. Choose colors and textures that make your master bathroom feel like a spa.
2 – Soothing Colors
Speaking of colors, the colors throughout your master suite should be soothing while also reflecting your personal style. Be particular about your wall colors, window treatments, and furnishings. The right combination can help you create the bedroom of your dreams.
5 – Privacy
Lastly, don't forget about privacy. Added privacy can help promote more relaxation in your master bedroom. Consider the location of your master bedroom compared to other rooms of your home. Also think about what direction it faces on the exterior. Is it pointed towards the street, another home, or your private back yard. What rooms are above and below it? Would some added sound insulation improve the use of the space?

When it comes to your remodeling plans, we take a multi-faceted approach. We consider your design preferences and the optimal use of the space. We balance technical aspects of a room with practical features. We consider both the details and the big picture.

According to the United Nations' World Urbanization report of 2018, 59 percent of Africa's population will live in cities by 2050, thus straining current urban infrastructure systems. Building more productive, inclusive and sustainable cities is therefore critical for economic growth and poverty reduction.
The Africa Cities Platform will support municipalities and other related government entities to grow the pipeline of sustainable urban infrastructure projects in key areas such as urban mobility, energy, water, and waste management. It aims to expand access to urban infrastructure and services by providing advisory services that lead to opportunities for the private sector to finance and deliver infrastructure projects.
The program will focus on cities in South Africa, including metropolitan municipalities and intermediate cities, while also engaging with cities in the rest of sub-Saharan Africa such as Dakar and Lagos.
Dr Nicolas Brühl, Ambassador-Designate of Switzerland to South Africa, said that South Africa, and other countries in Africa, has a large, growing urban population that "depends on social and economic services located in cities. With this figure increasing rapidly, there is more pressure on the public and private sectors alike to address the low levels of economic growth, to look at ways to create sustainable jobs, to improve on economic and social infrastructure delivery and to create safe environments for the most vulnerable."
Adamou Labara, IFC Country Manager said "IFC's approach is to develop long-term strategic partnerships with cities to help them realize sustainable urban infrastructure development, which will spur private sector growth."
Over the past decade, IFC has invested over $13 billion in global infrastructure projects and provided advisory support on urban development for over 60 countries.
About IFC

It appears that Michy Batshuayi's time at Mestalla has come to an end with the Belgian striker set to play for AS Monaco through to the end of the current campaign.
The news of the loan move was confirmed this evening on Canal + France as vice-president Vadim Vasilev maintained that all relevant sides (Valencia, Monaco, Chelsea and the player) had reached an agreement which would see the Belgian move to Ligue 1.
Batshuayi trained at Paterna with the rest of his Valencia team-mates this morning as the side prepare for the Copa del Rey second leg against Sporting Gijon and is now set to be reunited with Monaco boss Thierry Henry who was the number two to Belgium national team manager Roberto Martinez.

Top seeds Jamie Murray and Martina Hingis defeated defending champions Heather Watson and Henri Kontinen 6-4 6-4 to win the Wimbledon mixed doubles title yesterday. Sunday's win took Hingis' overall Grand Slam tally to 23 and five of her six mixed wins have come since the beginning of 2015.
The British-Swiss pairing started the game on a good note and broke the British-Finn pairing of Watson and Kontinen in the seventh game of the match en route to taking the first set. They repeated the same feat in the seventh game of the second set to lead 4-3 before holding the
The victory also meant Hingis, who only decided to partner the Scot just prior to this tournament, won her sixth Wimbledon title - comprising one singles crown, three
Expressing her happiness after winning the title, Hingis said, "I'm really happy how we played and performed. One Briton was going to win a Wimbledon title this year and I was hoping it would be mine," reported BBC Sport.
On being asked whether they would both return next year as a partnership, the Swiss added, "We have the next Grand Slam coming up and we have to talk about that."
During the game, Murray was also cheered by his brother and World No.1 men's singles player Andy Murray.

Adapted from Ned Vizzini's novel by author Joe Tracz and songwriter Joe Iconis, Be More Chill lands at the Lyceum Theatre after a run four years ago at Two River Theater in New Jersey and one last summer at Signature Center. The musical arrives an undisputed Internet juggernaut. The 2015 cast album has been streamed more than a quarter of a billion times. That said, on stage – where success is about alchemy, not numbers – the show is simply so-so. It's loud, lively and mostly lacking in surprises.
The action spins around Jeremy (Will Roland), a teen "loser, geek, whatever," as he sings in a big solo. His true-blue pal Michael (George Salazar) is a nerdy old-school gamer with a Pac-Man tattoo on his arm to prove it. Together, they're a dynamic, if outcast, duo.
Jeremy has the hots for Christine (Stephanie Hsu), a theater freak, but can't approach her. Rich (Gerard Canonico), a casual bully, gives Jeremy a solution: a pill from Japan, aka The Squip, which offers instant coolness in a capsule. The Squip (Jason Tam) manifests as a guide only Jeremy sees and hears. Just like that, Jeremy is, well, more chill.
But magic bullets ricochet and backfire. Relationships and houses go down in flames – and eventually, in a riff on the superior Little Shop of Horrors, the Squip reveals a dark side.
The question at the musical's core is provocative. If a pill could change your life, would you take it? The answer the show offers is, alas, pedestrian. After he takes the pill, Jeremy just goes to a Halloween party, an excuse for over-the-top costumes, horny high schoolers and more of the same-old, same-old. The show cries out for more sci-fi elements teased at the top of the show with the eerie wail of a theremin.
Songs by Iconis, whose credits include Smash, get points for quirky subjects and self-aware wordplay. But they're also long-winded and repetitive. Christine's "I Love Play Rehearsal" turns a simple declarative thought into tedious geeksplaining. The weird and wistful "Michael in the Bathroom," about getting kicked to the curb, goes from goofy-tender to outstaying its welcome. There's a difference between selling a song and sledgehammering it. The show's creators and director Stephen Brackett don't seem to notice that.
Through it all, the actors are game and winning as they channel inner teens, while the terrific scenic and lighting designs lend loads of atmosphere and polish. In the end, Be More Chill reminds that friendship is a mighty force. That's not groundbreaking like a high-tech pill, but it's easy enough to swallow.

All the exit polls have predicted a majority for the AAP with one of them giving it as high as 53 seats in the 70-member House.
An estimated 67 per cent turnout was recorded today in the crucial Delhi assembly polls where BJP and AAP were locked in a battle royale, outcome of which may have ramifications on the national political landscape.
"Around 67 per cent polling was recorded. However, we are yet to get the final figure as voting continued beyond scheduled deadline of 6 PM," Delhi's Chief Electoral Officer Chandra Bhushan Kumar said.
The assembly election, held for the second time in little over one year, has been largely a direct contest between BJP and a resurgent AAP which has put up a tough fight under ArvindKejriwal's leadership.
All the exit polls have predicted a majority for the AAP with one of them giving it as high as 53 seats in the 70-member House.
The elections are being considered significant as a victory for BJP will increase its confidence ahead of assembly polls in Bihar later this year and in West Bengal in 2016 while a defeat may bolster the opposition.
The BJP, which is out of power in Delhi for the last 16 years, made a no holds barred effort to win the polls. It is being billed by many as a referendum on Prime Minister NarendraModi, a description rejected by BJP.
The Election Commission said the elections have been largely peaceful and that there was no major glitch in Electronic Voting Machines.
In 2013 assembly polls, the overall voting percentage was 66 which was an increase of around 9 per cent from 57.58 per cent in 2008.
Kejriwal, who led AAP's spirited campaign, today exuded confidence of getting a clear mandate for his party as he said "truth will triumph" in the polls.
"I am confident that AAP will win the elections and form government in Delhi," he told PTI.
His BJP rival KiranBedi rejected the exit poll results carried out by various news channels even as she spoke of taking "full responsibility" if her party suffers a loss.
Addressing a press conference, a visibly exhausted Bedi also thanked BJP for reposing "faith" in her wondering what the party "saw in her".
"I am sure the results would change if the surveys take into account voting post 3 PM. They are incomplete as the turn out from 3 PM to 6 PM has not been included. Then the verdict may go in BJP's favour," she said.

I went to the Detroit premier last night. Looks like I was left on the editing room floor. But that is okay. The movie dealt primarily with the earlier days. All in all, I thought the movie was well done.

Thanks for the tip, Roberta.
I also attended The Making of Hitsville last night. I thought it was excellent. It covered some history of that era and the social impact of Motown for decades to come. Young people ought to view it just for the enlightenment, even if they don't remember the songs or the artists from the early days. Ralph and I will watch it again on Showtime. At least his name was in the credits.
Certainly a compelling story. Interesting that they went directly to a cable network with it, not trying to first release it in theatres as was done with the SITSOM, Wrecking Crew, or other similar documentaries...
Stu, much of the movie seemed to be all Berry and Smokey. But that was just fine. So good to see the love and respect these two guys have for each other.
well it is called The Making Of Hitsville, not The Stars or The Hits Of Hitsville.. the making was indeed Gordy and Smokey..
Yes, it is actually called "Hitsville: The Making of Motown," as you have noted. I'm sure you will find it light-hearted and enjoyable. The banter between Berry and Smokey is delightful.

I'm glad I have Ralph's, Al's, Mary's and the other Motown related books so that I could get the more complete story of what really happened and who was involved. I'm glad I was blessed to meet and get to know so many folks from Motown. Thank you.
Just finished it. The footage was amazing. All cleaned up and some that were in color that I had never seen in color before! Its ashame these footages can't be released in their full form. Besides the footage, it was okay. Same stories we heard many times before. I was getting kinda bored halfway through.
I enjoyed it. What was interesting to me was the audio recordings from the quality control meetings and some other meeting audio. I wonder how many meetings were recorded and how many of those tapes survived. I doubt we'll ever get to hear any more.
This is from the Detroit premier red carpet in Royal Oak Ralph:
Hey Marv. where did you get the video?
Peace......I honestly don't remember what was discussed in my interview. Done two years ago last March.
John, do I know your connection to Motown? Sorry if I don't.
None, I submitted the footage for the Arrid Extra Dry commercial.
Oh, okay. Cool.
How did you come by the commercial, John?
I look forward to seeing it some time.
Watched the film last night. Good to see new archival material, the taped QC meetings were great. Learned a few more things I wasnt aware of since Motown was before my time. So many artists to cover in so little time but overall its good for those just discovering Motown. From a selfish perspective, The Jackson 5 still caught the short end of the stick. In all, maybe 2 minutes worth of footage (very quick) clips that were never before seen...still baffles me that no one has released a project dedicated to their contribution to Motown. Dont wanna hear about the legal shield that prevents this...thats getting old. Release the 1970 Philly show! Clearly it exists. Release the documentary narrated by Ewart Abner which shows the J5 rehearsing for the Philly show. Somebody gotta step up!
Cool, John. Post what you find.
Ralph, they mention you in this Detroit News article on the premier:
I found so many rare Motown items over the years, I should buckle down and put them on YouTube. It would be a HUGE endeavor. Most are acetates, including Rare Earth's promo for the One World LP. The oddest item is a double sided acetate of Ron Miller performing tracks from the Funny Girl album.
Thank you Marv.
I watched Hitsville on Showtime last night and I really enjoyed it. Hope that they have a DVD/Blu-ray release planned (and that it includes additional material).
As a huge Motown fan I found it mostly a snooze overall but loved the Tops and Tempts clips and seeing the Original Vandellas.

Only shot I could find of that day.
I don't understand these people that produced and edit this film/documentary. People keep telling me that they have to try to reach a broad, generic audience. Why not try to educate them in the process? Most of what is known about Motown has been out there for decades. In this special year, why couldn't they get into the real nitty gritty which means Detroit and what was really involved in creating and building Motown there? I know 2 hours is not enough time. I would have preferred a multi-part series where they used the REAL people that worked at Motown and some of the artists that rarely, if ever get mentioned. I think people would watch that. Everyone has seen the Supremes, Tempts, Tops, Marvin and Stevie many, many times in these anniversary programs. Everyone has also seen historical documentaries where they learned something new. They should give it a shot! Maybe a Canadian company could do one since it seems that they make the best documentaries up there.
I like your idea of a multi part series, Marv, but that more than likely won't happen.
I saw both, Marv. Excellent.

Ralph sat for an interview with a Canadian company a few years ago and never even received a copy of his interview, although they assured him they would send him one. Instead, he learned of a web site where they are showing the clips, but you have to pay to subscribe. Similar interview about his experience at Motown.
Here's a link to the "teaser."

Il Sapore della Luna in Monteprandone, in the Province of Ascoli Piceno, one of the most appreciated wineries in the Marche Region, produces two excellent wines: the first one is a white "Pecorino" and it is called Spiagge; the second one is the red Brutale.
The Spiagge (DOCG) it is so called by the "contrada" where the winery is located and because the vineyard it is exposed at the East, overlooking the Adriatic Coast and enjoying the brezza that comes from the sea: a taste that one can find in the wine flavour.
The other one, the Brutale, is an excellent red wine. The name is due to the strong feelings our staff has felt the first time it tasted this wine. The meaning of the word "brutale" (in English "brutal, violent") is not negative but positive: it is due to a pleasant sensation, strong and immediate, that can produce an "unexpected miracle".
The ours are two among the typical wines of the Marche: the Spiagge and the Brutale are produced after a long production, whose workmanships are made according to traditions but using modern technologies.
