As a policymaker, having a holistic view on the situation and the ability to balance the interests of different stakeholders are always required in every decision making process. The interdisciplinary structure of MPUP programme not only deepens my knowledge on policies, it also provides me with multiple thinking models from political science, economics and many other different disciplines. I believe only through having a comprehensive view on the current situation and understanding on theories could policymakers make decisions required by the people they are serving. MPUP would be one of the best ways for you to prepare yourself to be a future policy maker.
Angel Chan
Class of 2017, CUHK
Executive Officer, HKSAR Government
Emphasising the importance of multidisciplinary learning, the MPUP programme of CUHK has deepened my knowledge and understanding in different fields of studies. From social policies to environmental policies; from public relations to economics, the courses here have trained us to be multi-talents who are able to think from different points of view. What surprised me the most is the pooling of talents in which classmates are from different academic backgrounds and sectors of the society. During in-class discussions and after-class activities, we often exchange our ideas, opinions and job experiences with each other. All these fruitful communications help broaden my horizon and widen my personal network with professionals from different areas. Furthermore, the programme has also provided us with practical career training and consultation, such as AO/EO workshop and alumni sharing. All these well prepared me for my JRE exam and EO interview when I was applying for the post. In sum, the programme not just provides me with knowledge and theory, but also extensive personal network and career training which make me "a better me".

Wide variety of courses, vibrant composition of class and down-to-earth interaction between students and teaching scholars - the MPUP programme extended my vision to different policy issues of concern.

The interdisciplinary design of the MPUP programme provides comprehensive training to examine policies from multiple perspectives. It offered flexibility in choosing electives according to my own academic interest. In addition, MPUP is an ideal destination to develop intellectual capacity in public policy.

The interdisciplinary course design of MPUP offers a variety of choices which allows me to explore my research interest. Indeed, MPUP helps me find the beauty and intelligible complexity of academic research and equips me with knowledge from politics, economics, to sociology and so on. Through the theoretical and practical training of public policy, I can analyze policy-related cases and research papers from different angles. The courses Economic Analysis of Public Policy as well as Values and Ethics in Public Policy remind me of the importance of a prudent policy design as a policymaker-to-be or a scholar in public management. Throughout the whole study journey, I realized that a good public policy is based on both solid theoretical debates and the use of scientific research methods. That is why I start my Ph.D. studies later on.

As a social worker, I felt the need to expand my knowledge in policy formulation as the living of the service users can be greatly improved by the refinement of related policy. As the Corporate Development Manager of an NGO, I have to be sensitive to the impact of various policies on both NGO and the service users. The course 'NGO and the Government' emphasizes on the interactions among NGO, the government, political parties and other social groups. It enriches my understanding of how theory and practice of public policy impact on NGO in the local context. The programme emphasizes the application of concepts on real cases and it strikes the balance between theory and practice. Through different learning activities, we are trained to think intensively and analyze public policy problems from different perspectives. More importantly, the programme emphasizes the relationship between public policies and the values and ethics underlying them, which provides justification for the legitimacy of policies. It facilitates our analysis of policy in a deeper level.

MPUP enables me to integrate knowledge and experience of my undergraduate studies in Government and Public Administration major and Sociology minor, plus my subsequent first full-time job at an NGO. Professors and lecturers inspire me to describe and prescribe ways to value our city's public life. Perspectives range from public administration, economics, political philosophy, environment, architecture and more. There are opportunities for us to grasp and look into social issues from viewpoints of a diversity of stakeholders in society, with good discussion of cases locally and abroad. In brief, this programme is Multidisciplinary, Professional, Uplifting, and Practical — I think that's why it's called MPUP!

The interdisciplinary design of MPUP is impressive. Overseas and local experts teach courses in their respective fields of expertise such as public administration, innovation and economic policy-making. MPUP does not only offer an eye-opening experience to students to explore different analytic frameworks but also equips them with capabilities to think holistically and formulate viable suggestions on practical policy problems. As such, studying MPUP is a very rewarding experience, and I will surely recommend it to those who are interested in pursuing their studies in public policy.
Jennifer Chin
Class of 2015, CUHK
Superintendent, Hong Kong Police Force, HKSAR Government
The increasing interdependence, complexity and volatility of events in the local and international environments nowadays have continued to have an impact on individuals and even more so on governments and their governance. Whether you are a senior civil servant like me, or someone endeavouring to understand more of this 'maze', I am sure that public policy study, a highly interdisciplinary programme gaining significance worldwide, can offer pointers. In spite of the short spell, MPUP has already provided me a good and valid frame of reference for both macro and micro policy analysis. Whilst my 23 years with the Police Force and the Government with the many training and secondment opportunities have equipped me with specialised knowledge, skills and exposures, this programme has elevated my conceptual and professional knowledge and understanding of public policy and its many intricacies to an even higher and more holistic level. Coupled with the many familiar real-life examples in teachings and researches, as well as lively interactions plus critical thinking during case studies, the programme has augmented my capability to visualise the various policy problems and issues in different valid perspectives and contexts. With other courses and further efforts ahead, I am looking forward to gaining more wisdom and analytical power as well as other exciting experiences down my learning path.
Agnes Wong

Working as a civil servant means that I have to deal with public-related issues frequently. As I come from science background, I would like to learn more about public policy to facilitate my work. After studied in MPUP, I can use different perspectives to analyze public-related issues and understand the process or norm of public policy formulation. I found the real case examples and in-class discussions beneficial. Apart from the above, MPUP also surprised me by its well-established alumni network.
Michael Lee
Class of 2014, CUHK
It was totally out of my plan to enroll in MPUP programme. It all started from 2011 when I was in Sendai, Japan. Initially, my intention to join MPUP was to learn more for helping the reconstruction and relief work in Northeast Japan after the earthquake. However, after one year, I learn not only the principles of NGO and government policymaking, but also logical and critical thinking through intensive class discussion. MPUP programme is a very good platform for people from different sectors to have interactions.
Robert Lee
Class of 2014, CUHK
Correctional Services Department, HKSAR Government
This Programme demonstrates the importance of public policy not simply by focusing on theoretical ideologies, but also practical application and case evaluation. Being an officer of government department facing high degree of public expectation, some crisis management techniques are necessary for me to handle different cases. The courses strengthen my crisis management skills and critical thinking through significant case studies and class interaction. Comprehensive analysis and case studies broaden my horizons and help me understand perspectives of different stakeholders. These really strengthen my confidence to deal with daily tasks of my work.

It was a marvelous experience to study with my MPUP classmates who are from all walks of life but share the same interest.

MPUP programme is one of the most invaluable experiences I have in Hong Kong. It enriches my understanding on the political, economic, and cultural aspects of Hong Kong, and further connects me to the advanced study and research on public policy realm internationally. Through the programme, I learnt from the extremely knowledgeable professors in an open academic environment with developed interdisciplinary perspectives. The benefit of MPUP programme doesn't end at the completion of programme, but rather it continues.

Working in the media, there seems to be endless information to digest everyday, especially on judging whether or not the government is doing well, or whether issues are justified. MPUP has enlightened me with many useful fundamental and essential principles in making critical and significant judgments. At times, I find it very enjoyable to be inspired by the lessons. If you are interested in politics and public policy, CUHK is no doubt the best place!

The interaction between professors and students impressed me the most during my study in MPUP. This is quite different from the traditional method of teaching in mainland China. As a new programme, MPUP gives us various choices in lessons which stimulate different ideas and facilitate explorations.

Jason Tsui
Class of 2012, CUHK
As a political science major in my undergraduate study, I got an opportunity from MPUP to further deepen my knowledge about how politics works in the real world. Its multidisciplinary nature is its major strength. Our study is not limited to a single discipline and our professors come from different departments in the Faculty of Social Science. Another astrength of MPUP is that it does not only focus on academic theories, but we also have teachers who have worked in their fields for years, if not decades. They pass to us a lot of practical knowledge and experience. If you are interested in studying public policy, MPUP of CUHK is the right place to go.
Lisa Wu
Class of 2012, CUHK
As an English major student, I was firstly attracted by MPUP as its curriculum does not only focus on the policymaking process but also help students analyze and resolve policy problems. After setting foot in the MPUP classes, I found that every classmate here possesses diversified backgrounds. What's more is Hong Kong as a metropolitan city, you would certainly experience a clash of different ideas. These collisions will encourage you to do some critical thinking and formulate your own one. That is the most valuable thing I have got from MPUP.
Jian Feng
Class of 2012, CUHK

When I initially had the idea to pursue my master degree in public policy in 2010, the first place came to my mind is Hong Kong. With its freedom and diversity, Hong Kong offers the perfect environment to study public policy. MPUP professors are all top professionals in their expert fields. They encourage students to think objectively and thoroughly. Some years passed since I joined MPUP. I must say I do not have any regrets at all. I changed a lot. I am now more sensitive to social problems and try to think of a possible solution critically. Our class discussions, presentations and papers help me understand how public policy works in the real world. I would like to thank all MPUP professors and classmates. Studying with you all is a really remarkable experience in my life.
Andy Teng

I am a 2011 MPUP graduate from the mainland of China and have four years of banking experience prior to my sudies. Through MPUP, I do not only get the expertise in policymaking but also know more about multiculturalism in Hong Kong. With multidisciplinary learning and the multi-perspective teaching in MPUP, I have formed an integrated and global way of thinking, and begun to be able to think about and understand public policy issues as a policymaker. The MPUP experience is very helpful for my career, work and life.

Net frauds: RBI seeks CBI help
Between January 2006 and September 2009, 1,436 cases of fraudulent Internet money transfer cases involving Rs 15 crore have been reported. The RBI has now roped in the cybercrime cell of the Central Bureau of Investigation to help curb the menace, reports Mahua Venkatesh.business Updated: Jul 11, 2010 21:36 IST
For 35-year old Radha Nair (name changed), a government employee in Coimbatore, banking has assumed a whole new meaning in last few weeks.
It all began with an email from an unknown person posing to be a senior officer of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) congratulating her for winning an international lottery prize worth $500,000 (Rs 2.3 crore).
There was a minor matter though. Nair would have to provide her personal bank account details for the money to be remitted and also make a "small" upfront payment for processing and sundry administrative costs. Nair fell for the trap, promptly sent out her bank details and made the payment — only to learn that she had been duped of Rs 6.5 lakh.
"I have promised myself to visit a bank branch to withdraw money by signing a cheque leaf," Nair told HT on phone.
Nair is not alone. In the last four years, such instances of banking fraud through "phishing" have grown manifold.
'Phishing' is a fraud where criminals create e-mails and web sites that closely resemble those of legitimate companies.
Between January 2006 and September 2009, 1,436 cases of fraudulent Internet money transfer cases involving Rs 15 crore have been reported.
The RBI has now roped in the cybercrime cell of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI's) to help curb the menace. "There has been a significant rise in the number of these mails. It is a cause for concern and needs to be addressed," H.R Khan, executive director, RBI said.
Typically perpetrated over an e-mail, these offers lure people by promising an astronomical amount either for winning a lottery or for helping to secure a deceased emperor's wealth.
In some cases, these mails are sent out through almost identical web-addresses of banks such as the Punjab National Bank (see attached file) to establish credibility and extract bank account details.
Wary banks have cautioned customers to avoid such mails.
"We never request for your personal and financial information over e-mail… Beware of fraudulent websites looking similar to PNB's Internet Banking website," PNB said in a communication to its customers.

From awkward beginnings to utter charm
By Bradley Storer
About eight seconds after psyching up herself and the audience with Survivor's Eye of the Tiger, comedian Deanne Smith cuts the music short and admits 'I can't maintain this level of energy for very long'.
Smith opens with a ukulele tune in which she recruits the audience to interject at her command with the title of her show – the song never really managed to gain momentum since Smith was constantly forced to stop and wait for the audience's response, and this made for a slightly awkward opening. After this small bump in the road though, her show Let's Do It for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival picks up and soars.
The main thrust of Smith's show is an examination of her inability to be a self-confident and secure person, gleefully dissecting her various neuroses to side-splitting and, at times, jaw-dropping effect.
Smith's strength is her innate sweetness and lovability, which allows her to delve into some unexpectedly filthy and dark places (at my particular performance, even Smith herself remarked at several points, surprised 'You all got on board with that!'). Topics range from the unfortunate implications of the term 'femi-nazis' and her hatred of penguins to a remarkably optimistic view of humanity's current effects on the environment.
Interspersed throughout are many moments of audience participation, people individually to be sung at, called up to assist onstage or to take photos during the show (for one particular section, I'd advise bringing along a friend to save potential embarrassment). The hour show flies by and it would be hard to imagine anyone who would not be doubled over in laughter by the end.
DATES: 30th MARCH – 21st APRIL
TIME: 9:45 (8:45 Sunday)
TICKETS: Full $25, Preview $20, Tightarse Tuesday $20, Laugh Pack (n/a Fri & Sat) $20, Concession $20 (n/a Fri & Sat), Group (8+) (N/A Fri & Sat) $20

Lepers Quotes
When I was 17, I went to India for six weeks and had what, at the time, was a very challenging trip. You walk down the street and you see lepers and beggars, and there were several of us, a group of Americans. I remember we were just trying to park one night somewhere and people were just sleeping in the parking lot. - Chris Hughes
Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, / And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? / Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: / The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. - Bible

A Joe Oddessy
We start off with a shot of the moon, from behind it, from either side,
two white dots come toward us. We hear YO JOE! as the tune to the
second season opener begins.
- Cut to the terrordrome collapsing from the season two opening theme.
- Cut to a close-up of the cover of issue 21 of the comic, "silent interlude"
- Cut to 5 Skystrikers flying in formation, heading towards 5 Rattlers.
- Cut to a collage of MIP/MIB items from the 2001 Joe line
We cut back to the moon, both dots are coming towards us, become
larger and assume a familiar shape.
- Cut to the Yojoe.com homepage, the bivoauc, Warflight's dio tips page,
TimElf's Iconoclasts page, General Hawks page and the Pit page in two-
second intervals
- Cut to a collage of Joe art from Joe Harris.
- Cut to the cover of the first issue of the new Joe comic
- Cut to a diorama of 5 FLAGGs, carrying 10 Skystrikers
The dots are now clearly revealed as being the Defiant and Crusader
shuttles, both racing towards earth. Then, both open their cargo doors
and launch what appear to be one ICBM each from them.
Both missiles head towards Earth, but veer off and are seen heading above
the earth. At this point, they collide with eachother. In the red and yellow
explosion, we see text forming :
That's all folks ! See ya next year !

New rules for a new era
Dear Editor:
Now that the election is over, a couple of catch-up issues:
1. In order to prevent a forest-ranger shortage, rangers can work on trails instead of wasting time giving tickets to well-behaved dogs and their owners.
2. Wildwood School mandates that 3-year-olds take the school bus. The Aspen School District should make it impossible for parents to drop kids off, and students should not be allowed to park cars on campus.

Construction has commenced on Echo Entertainment Group's $345 million refurbishment and extension of the Gold Coast Jupiters casino.
A host of dignitaries including Premier Anna Palaszczuk attended a sod turning at the Jupiter's Casino site.
Ms Palaszczuk said investment to construct a new 6-star hotel tower and completely refurbish the entire Jupiters complex was a powerful commitment to the future prosperity of the Gold Coast.
"More than 800,000 international visitors already come to the Gold Coast each year and my Government is committed to working with the tourism industry to continue growing those numbers," Ms Palaszczuk said.
The Jupiters hotel, once completed in early 2018, will provide more than 70 luxury suites in the new tower. That's in addition to the 592 rooms already available within Jupiters Hotel.
"The new rooms will help accommodate the Games' visitors and attract tourists for decades to come," Ms Palaszczuk said.
"But we don't have to wait until 2018 to see the benefits. They start flowing now with construction of the new tower expected to create 500 jobs on-site and a further 350 to 400 off-site supporting the construction activities."Total works at the site is expected to deliver 1,700 jobs.
"Everyone on the Gold Coast has an interest in the success of the Jupiters development and the enormous spin-offs to flow from it," Ms Palaszczuk said.
"This new hotel will add enormously to the Gold Coast's stock of 6-star accommodation, further enhancing the city's reputation as an international destination for all sectors of the market, including the premium tourist.""It isn't just the 6-star tourists who get to enjoy the world class development and refurbishment at Jupiters.
"The new restaurants and bars and attractive landscaping will also attract other visitors, as well as locals, who want to use and enjoy the world class facilities at the Jupiters complex."
CEO of Echo Entertainment Group Matt Bekier said the project was a celebration of the Gold Coast.
"To that end, we have been working with local designers and international architects to ensure it resonates with the local community, as well as its broader domestic and international appeal," Mr Bekier said.
"These are exciting times for the Gold Coast and we're delighted to be playing be a key role in advancing the growth of tourism and jobs creation in the region.""In recent times, we have focussed on investing significantly in our properties."
Group Chairman John O'Neill said the company was committed to positioning Jupiters as a world-class integrated resort and assist in the transformation of the Gold Coast before, during and after the 2018 Commonwealth Games.

Please take some time to reflect on your experience watching "Bully". How did you feel about it? Would you recommend for for other kids your age? Feel free to comment openly and honestly. I'd like at least a paragraph from everyone!

This movie was definitely more powerful than I expected it to be, and it was moving. I just can't imagine someone being so man to someone, that they felt like their life isn't worth living anymore. I would recommend this movie to anyone my age because it is an important lesson for anyone of all ages to learn that bullying is extremely serious. I did tell angry that they had to hang themselves because they didn't even like life, which is the gift we should be most grateful for. That is like the bully taking and breaking the best Christmas present in the world, bit even worse.

I felt a vaiety of emotions from watching the movie bully. For one, I felt angry how kids would do such things to each other for popularity and at some of the authorities for not making as big a deal about it as it was. I also feel saddened by it, that kids would have to go through that each and every day without friends or help and commited suiside it was just so sad. Also I feel inspired by the people who in fact are taking a stand and asking bullies to stop ands standing up for what's right. I am also kinda proud of the kids who stand up for each other and the kid who was a bully but stopped in his tracks and starting being nice to everyone. Maybe even surprised because I knew bullying was bad, but i didn't think it was that bad. I would most definantly reccommend it for kids my age. This is because, even though PG-13, it can show kids that everything starts with one, to make a stand even if your standing alone and stick up for yourself sometimes, and it can help some kids even relize that maybe they need to clean up their act a bit.

I think that Bully was an inspiring movie, but I don't really think that it relates to our own school. As far as I known, their are no bullys like they showed in the movie at our school. I think that I would recomend it to other kids because even though it doesn't relate to everybody it definitly teaches you a lesson.
5/15/2013 06:00:28 am
Wow!i dont even know what to say that was just indescribable.it was sad and inspiring and it made me angry that such innocent kids had to go through such awful things.the message was just so powerful and i think that everyone realized how serious this.i would deffinatly recamend it to other kids because bullying is something that needs to be stopped and the more people that see it the more of a difference we can make!!!!!!!

My thoughts on the movie is that it is one of the most powerful thing I have ever experienced. I would defiantly say that this movie is something that people our age should experience and see to raise awareness. The stories and to see what these kids have to go through everyday is insane, heart breaking, courageous, tragic, inspiring, and many other words. The feelings I felt while I was watching the film are anger, disappointment, hope, sorrow and inspired. It gives mixed emotions a whole new definition. It is extremely powerful to the point where I was brought to tears three times. The movie also made me sick because I felt the heartache I felt the depression, the feeling of being stuck. It felt real. It hurt. It moved me. I felt like I was being bullied I felt like I was the one who went home every night and cut. At the end of the film, when tributes were being paid, I felt it and I know that the families who lost their kids, felt the full weight of their child's death on their shoulders. No one deserves what they have gotten in the movie, in life, no one deserves to experience that.

The way I felt about the movie 'Bully" I was a little dazed. I was extremely shocked of what could happen if you bully someone for that long they will, just go away. I do believe that everyone my age should see because they will think twice about what they say or do. I want everyone to take a deep breath and calm down before they start to do something that will hurt someone. I just want all of this pain and suffering to stop now.
5/15/2013 06:39:51 am
I thought Bully was a heart breaking yet inspiring movie! I think that more children should watch this movie because it shows how bullying can affect others and how severe it is! It's really sad to think that the things in that movie were actually happening! It was like a total reality check watching that movie.... Although it was sad it made you want to stand up for the people being bullied! I am glad that you showed us that movie!
5/15/2013 06:42:45 am
The way I felt about the movie "Bully" was that It was a great movie I thought it gave out a good message to the viewers that it's not right to bully. The way I felt during the movie when the teachers weren't doing anything I felt really mad. Also when the kids were being bullied I felt horrible how they were being pounded on it was terrible. But I think that I would definitely recommend this movie to other kids my age because I would want them to feel bad not in a mean way, but feel sorry so that they get the message that it isn't right to bully other kids.
5/15/2013 06:47:23 am
In the movie "Bully" I felt terribly for the kids who were getting bullied. I felt so badly that I wanted to do something to help all of the kids in the movie.
5/15/2013 09:01:55 am
Wow...well First of all it was a bit heart breaking. Watching people deal with something so serious can be upsetting. I also got VERY mad! I got angry at the principal! She was acting like nothin ever happens! She's probably just too lazy to do something about the bullying. I REALLY hated the comment she made at one point. It was something like "I was on that bus and they were acting like gold." She probably knew that wasn't true and if it was true, it was probably because SHE {THE PRINCIPAL} WAS ON THE BUS! They wouldn't fool around if the principal was on the bus! I'm glad we don't have a principal like her!!! I thought that gossiping was bad, but this movie took bullying to a whole different level.
5/15/2013 09:19:19 am
I think that I would recommend this to other kids my age because the movie helps tell how bullying can effect kids. I think that it can help people to understand how to avoid being a bully. It can also help people to understand bullies and keep away from bullies like when you see Alex getting bullied on the bus. The only problem is that it might be inappropriate. Other than that, I think that it might be a good idea.
5/15/2013 10:02:13 am
I think "Bully" was an excellent but very depressing documentary. Watching this, it made me very angry that these kids were treated like this. It also made my outraged when the teachers NOTHING about it and just said things like, "Don't worry, we will take care of it." Even though I know all these kids are miles away, I wish I could go over there and hold their hand through the hard times. I want them to have a friend beside them, helping them stand up to the bullies. Alex's mom says that if anyone in the school got to know Alex, Alex would be a great friend. I would recommend this for everyone my age. Everyone on the globe should watch this documentary to finally put an end to bullying.
5/15/2013 10:29:04 am
well i would recommend that to anyone my age it was inspiring after watching that i will never do anything that could possibly harm somebody after watching that. but some parts just made me angry head to toe i wanted to scream.like the time where the kid threatened to kill the kid and was swearing at him then the teacher got angry for not shaking his hand. i wouldnt shake that kidd hand in one million years. the part that really shocked me was that the bully's actually thought it was funny to put these kids in absolute misery i couldn't imagine doing that to the person i dislike in the whole wide world. also the teachers were just as bad as the bully's they insured the parents of the victims problems would be solved but inside they couldn't care less. in other scenarios the teachers actually made fun of the kids. if there were people picking on me behind my back Mr Bunel "my teacher" would be the last person i would guess. there were parts that rally motivated me like the trial; against the bullying dome of the kids really said some inspiring things probably risking getting in trouble. also the father of one of the kids that committed suicide stepped in front of the huge group of kids i really thought that was phenomenal. to sum this up i really liked the movie it was inspiring breathtaking and it touched deep in my heart
5/15/2013 12:47:45 pm
Yes I would. I would because it is a truly moving and expiring movie that in my opinion will make people think about it for quite a wile. Because bullying is not ok. You can see some of the things that bullying can do. A 17 year old boy killed him because of it and that's not ok. Alex was as you can tell handling it better than most did. He just simple asked why they were doing it even tho they didn't answer. He also tried not to act like he was tating even tho it's not tating. Many of these kinds found better results for them self in the end and the parents should be very prode of them or to remember there sweet kids who died from it. The people who did this to them probably didnt know them and should be ashamed in them selfs.
5/15/2013 09:27:13 pm
My first reaction to Bully was, do things like this really happen and it is really hard to have an idea about it. Throughout the movie all I could think about was my little brothers and sisters. If that happened to them, what would I do with myself? Another thought I had was why is the teacher not doing anything like people are more and more angry. So why do they not move or be home schooled? When I got home from school my mom and I talked about it and she made me feel better.

"What must I forsake?" a young man asked.
"Colored clothes for one thing. Get rid of everything in your wardrobe that is not
white. Stop sleeping on a soft pillow. Sell your musical instruments and don't eat any
more white bread. You cannot, if you are sincere about obeying Christ, take warm baths or
shave your beard. To shave is to lie against him who created us, to attempt to improve on
his work."
Quaint, isn't it -- this example of extrabiblical scruples? And perhaps amusing. The
list has constantly shifted over the 1,800 years since this one was actually recorded.
Jim Peterson, Living Proof, NavPress, 1989,
p. 106.
I have found, in my own spiritual life, that the more rules I lay down for myself, the more sins I commit. The habit of regular
morning and evening prayer is one which is indispensable to a believer's life, but the prescribing of the length of prayer, and
the constrained remembrance of so many persons and subjects, may gender unto bondage, and strangle prayer rather than assist it.
Charles Spurgeon, in Wycliffe Handbook of Preaching &
Preachers, W. Wiersbe, p. 235.
"I am in earnest about forsaking 'the world' and following Christ. But I am puzzled about worldly things. What is it I
must forsake?" a young man asks. "Colored clothes, for one thing. Get rid of everything in your wardrobe that is not white.
Stop sleeping on a soft pillow. Sell your musical instruments and don't eat any more white bread. You cannot, if you are
sincere about obeying Christ, take warm baths or shave your beard. To shave is to lie against Him who created us, to attempt
to improve on His Work."
Elizabeth Elliot comments on the above dialogue, "Does this answer sound absurd? It is the answer given
in the most celebrated Christian schools of the second century! Is it possible that the rules that have been adopted by many
twentieth-century; Christians will sound as absurd to earnest followers of Christ a few years hence?"
Elizabeth Elliot, The Liberty of Obedience, Nashville,
Abingdon, 1968, pp. 45-46.
One of my favorite stories comes from a man who used to be in our church. He and his wife were close friends of our family, but
they have now moved to another part of the country. We really miss their joyful presence. When he was a youth worker many
years ago in an ethnic community, he attended a church that had Scandinavian roots. Being a rather forward-looking and creative
young man, he decided he would show the youth group a missionary film. We're talking simple, safe, black-and-white religious-
oriented movie. That film projector hadn't been off an hour before a group of the leaders in the church called him in and
asked him about what he had done. They asked, "Did you show the young people a film?" In all honesty he
responded, "Well, yeah, I did." "We don't like that," they replied. Without trying to be
argumentative, the youth worker reasoned, "Well, I remember that at the last missionary conference, our church showed slides--"
One of the church officers put his hand up signaling him to cease talking. Then, in these words, he emphatically explained the
conflict: "If it's still, fine. If it moves, sin!" You can show slides, but when they start
movin', you're gettin' into sin.
C. Swindoll, The Grace Awakening, Word, 1990,
pp. 160-161.
If moral behavior were simply following rules, we could program a computer to be moral.
Samuel Ginder in Washington Post.
In contrast to the two commands of Christ, the Pharisees had developed a system of 613 laws, 365 negative commands and 248
positive laws...By the time Christ came it had produced a heartless, cold, and arrogant brand of righteousness. As such,
it contained at least ten tragic flaws. (1) New laws continually need to be invented for new situations. (2) Accountability to
God is replaced by accountability to men. (3) It reduces a person's ability to personally discern. (4) It creates a
judgmental spirit. (5) The Pharisees confused personal preferences with divine law. (6) It produces inconsistencies.
(7) It created a false standard of righteousness. (8) It became a burden to the Jews. (9) It was strictly external. (10) It was
rejected by Christ.
Outlined from Fan The Flame, J. Stowell, Moody, 1986, p. 52.
The story was told some years ago of a pastor who found the roads blocked one Sunday morning and was forced to skate on the river
to get to church, which he did. When he arrived the elders of the church were horrified that their preacher had skated on the
Lord's day. After the service they held a meeting where the pastor explained that it was either skate to church or not go at
all. Finally one elder asked, "Did you enjoy it?" When the preacher answered, "No," the board decided it was all right!
Today in the Word, December, 1989, p. 12.
Nothing can choke the heart and soul out of walking with God like legalism. Rigidity is the most certain sign that the Disciplines have
spoiled. The disciplined person is the person who can live appropriately in life.
Consider the story of Hans the tailor. Because of his reputation, an influential entrepreneur visiting the city ordered a tailor-made suit.
But when he came to pick up his suit, the customer found that one sleeve twisted that way and the other this way; one shoulder bulged out and the
caved in. He pulled and managed to make his body fit. As he returned home on the bus, another passenger noticed his odd appearance and asked if Hans the
tailor had the suit. Receiving an affirmative reply, the man remarked, "Amazing! I knew that Hans was a good tailor, but I had no idea he could make
a suit fit so perfectly someone as deformed as you."
Often that is just what we do in the church. We get some idea of what the Christian faith should look like: then we push and shove people in to
the most grotesque configurations until they fit wonderfully! That is death. It is a wooden legalism which destroys the soul.
Richard J. Foster.

The section on thread safety seems to have disappeared from the Xerces-J docs. There is a section in Xerces-C, however: http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/faq-parse.html#faq-5 The bottom line: 1) Making the parser 100% thread safe would be a HUGE, GIGANTIC performance hit.

That, too.) 2) Your application knows best what needs to be locked, and what doesn't. 3) Therefore, although you can run the parser, DOM, etc. from separate threads, we do NOT lock every method call on the parser, and each application is responsible for doing appropriate locking.

A human ribbon of distance runners threaded the emerald empire when the Prospect Park Track Club held its 15th Annual Cherry Tree 10-Mile and 3-Person Relay.
Aptly-named "A Race for the Hard Core," the challenge called upon athletes to complete three demanding loops of the emerald empire with the option of completing the course as an individual 10-mile runner, or as a member of a three-person relay team where each runner finishes one lap.
An added "excitement" this year was the implementation of the Chronotrack Timing System, a USA-made race monitor which eliminates several organizational choke points by reducing the need for race volunteers and allowing athletes to spend more time focusing on their competition.
T. Patrick Hynes of Park Slope won the men's category in 52':37; and Manhattan contestant Rondi Davis, who finished in 1:03:31, was awarded first place in the women's group.
Katie Casto of Gowanus came in a close second in 1:05:59.
Runners unwound with a post-race party at Bishop Ford High School, 500 19th Street — and a soothing massage from interns at the Swedish Institute.

How a Race, Track, Drift and Rally Car Braking System Works? - Motorsports Tech Session
Grant Loc
July 21, 2011
How are all you Motorsport Tech Session hard core fans?
Thank you for all the feed back you give us, with out you we are nothing.
If you are new to the Motorsport Tech Session then I am sure you will enjoy this article.
How a Race Car Braking System Works?
The Master Cylinder is one of the key elements of a brake system. This article will inform you how the Master Cylinder / Pump forces brake fluid through the system.
The way this happens is a basic lesson in hydraulics.
It all starts with the actuating force that is fed into the master cylinder. This force is provided by the driver's foot on the brake pedal. The maximum force that is exerted on the brake pedal is approximately between 150 to 200 pounds of pressure, the average pressure on the brake pedal in a race condition is 100 pounds of force.
The driver is normally limited to a maximum of approx six inches of pedal travel that can be applied to the brake pedal. This is determined by the pilot leg length, closeness to the pedal and leg angle. The ability the driver has to apply the force to the pedal will be influenced on the driver body restraints like the seat belts and shoulder harness, the angle of the hip and the angle of the knee joints. Having a straighter knee joint will allow an easier operation of the pedals, and more force can be applied to the brake pedal.
The force that is exerted by the leg and foot to the brake pedal is then multiplied by the leverage that is in the pedal ratio. Most production cars are 3 to 1 or 4 to 1 this is enough of a ratio when a servo is used, however with out a servo this ratio is a little low. Most race car pedal boxes that do not use a servo and will have a ratio between 5 to 1 and 6 to 1.
To give you an example of the ratio increase here are a couple of examples:
100 pounds of pressure created by the driver to a 5 to 1 ratio pedal will deliver 500 pounds of pressure to the master cylinder push rod. (100 lbs x 5 = 500 lbs)
100 pounds of pressure created by the driver to a 6 to 1 ratio pedal will deliver 600 pounds of pressure to the master cylinder push rod. (100 lbs x 6 = 600 lbs)
However always remember if the pedal ratio is increased, the pressure will increase and also the movement of the pedal will increase.
The next consideration with a race car brake pedal system is the master cylinder bore size. The most common bore sizes used are:
.75 - Internal piston bore size O/D
.7 - Internal piston bore size O/D
.625 - Internal piston bore size O/D
The force supplied into the master cylinder is divided by the square inches of the piston, and the output of the master cylinder is pressure in pounds per square inch.
.75 Cyl Bore is .44 Sq. in. of area
.7 Cyl Bore is .38 Sq. in. of area
.625 Cyl Bore -is.30 Sq. in. of area
For example:
300 pounds of pressure created by the driver with the pedal ratio increase is applied to a .75 bore master cylinder (Force supplied into the master cylinder is divided by Square inches of the piston) 300 pounds divided by .44 = 681 pounds per square inch line pressure
300 pounds of pressure created by the driver with the pedal ratio increase is applied to a .625 bore master cylinder (Force supplied into the master cylinder is divided by Square inches of the piston) 300 pounds divided by .30 = 1000 pounds per square inch line pressure
It is easier with this knowledge to understand that a smaller bore master cylinder will deliver more pressure into the brake lines and to the brake calipers.
So why not use smaller bore master cylinders all the time? There are two reasons why this is not the perfect solution.
1) With a smaller bore master cylinder the pedal will require more travel to displace the given fluid needed.
2) Higher line pressure aggravates line and calliper expansions and thus uses up more fluid.
If a system is so stiff (meaning no or little line expansion or calliper deflection) that the driver is only using a small part of the total pedal travel, then using a smaller bore master cylinder will reduce the pedal force, or effort required by the driver to stop the car.
Once the pressure leaves the master cylinder there is not a great deal of movement in the brake lines, what does happen is a pressure build up and pressure transmittal.
To understand this theory in a practical way, please imagine you are blowing down a straw. Place a finger two inches from the base of the straw and blow you will feel the air passing over your finger.
Now block the straw with your finger. There is still the volume of air in the straw and you are still generating force by blowing down the straw. However your finger only feels the force against it.
This is a very simple example of the principle of pressure transmittal, as used in a sealed brake system.

Arizona forward Lauri Markkanen declares for NBA Draft
Arizona freshman Lauri Markkanen announced Thursday at a press conference that he will leave the University of Arizona and enter the 2017 NBA Draft.
The official announcement came during a press conference in Tucson.
"First of all I want to think everyone back home in Finland who has helped me to reach this point," Markkanen said. "My coaches, family, friends. I want to thank everyone here, the coaching staff, my teammates — it's been an unbelievable year, I've had so much fun — and of course the fans, hearing 'U-of-A' chants everywhere we'd go, that's been incredible.
"But playing in the NBA has been a dream of mine, so I'm happy and excited to announce that I'm declaring for the NBA Draft."
The All-Pac-12 First Team member and third-team All-American averaged 15.6 points and 7.2 rebounds per game in 2016-17 while shooting 49 percent overall and 42 percent from three-point range. His 69 three-pointers made are among the most made for a big man over the course of a season.
Markkanen leaving school early is no surprise given that he is projected to be a top-10 pick in the draft, according to DraftExpress. He also is ranked as the eighth-best prospect on the website's list of its top 100 players.
Markkanen said he was hoping he would be ready for the draft after one season in college, but put his entire focus on his career with the Wildcats. It was not until the team got back to Tucson following its Sweet 16 loss to Xavier when he really thought about his future.
"I'm very excited, I'm looking forward to it," he said. "It's a big step and a big challenge for me, and I think I'm ready. I know I'm ready to go and do my best."
The 7-foot Finnish forward leaves Arizona with a hole to fill at power forward, though that will presumably be filled by DeAndre Ayton, another 7-foot shooter rated the second-best prospect in his recruiting class, and Ira Lee, a 6-foot-8 power forward.
Arizona is also bringing in 4-star prospects on the perimeter in Brandon Randolph and Alex Barcello to join a group of returning players that, for now at least, includes Allonzo Trier, Rawle Alkins and Kobe Simmons, as well as Parker Jackson-Cartwright, Dusan Ristic, Chance Comanche, Keanu Pinder and Dylan Smith, who will now be eligible after sitting out due to transfer rules.

Many people have discussed Garcinia Cambogia, especially in the most recent years. Dr. Oz suggested that this supplement was an excellent way for people to lose weight, and many individuals have seen results. When you're thinking about taking this weight loss supplement, or any other, you probably have many questions about its safety.
Whether or not any particular supplement is safe depends heavily upon how it is used. Keep these considerations in mind when you take Garcinia Cambogia, and you can have a pleasant and fulfilling experience.
When you want to start taking Garcinia Cambogia, the first stop that you need to make is at your doctor's office. You need to speak with your doctor about whether or not this supplement is safe for you. The safety of any particular supplement has a great deal to do with your individual body. For example, you may have a certain condition or ailment that prevents you from taking Garcinia Cambogia in the short or long term, but you won't know what the case is until you visit the doctor.
Many people recognize how popular Garcinia Cambogia has become, and some of these individuals have sinister intentions. Therefore, they make products that look like Garcinia Cambogia as far as the bottle goes but that are actually other supplements.
Not knowing what you are taking is extremely dangerous. Therefore, the best idea is to go to an authorized retailer or to the main site of this product. If you purchase from another site, you should see what the other reviewers have to say about the product. Furthermore, you may want to go to a local nutritional store in town that you trust. If you don't have the right product, then you cannot know if it is safe.
A major determining point as to whether or not this product is safe depends upon if you follow the instruction. Read through the instructions on the bottle carefully when you first purchase it. You need to make sure you are taking the supplements as directed. Not only will doing so help to keep you safe, but it will also assist you in obtaining the most benefits. When you do not follow the instructions with these types of supplements, you are unlikely to see the weight loss that you want. Therefore, following the directions has multiple benefits.
One of the ways that Garcinia Cambogia works is by lowering your glucose levels. Now, consider a person who already has low levels of glucose in his or her body; taking this supplement is going to subtract even more glucose. This situation can become dangerous.
Many people who are diabetic are already taking medications to lower the levels of glucose in their bodies, so adding in this supplement can prove dangerous. Still though, speaking with a doctor is the only way to know for sure if it is dangerous for your specific condition.
People's bodies act in different ways to different substances and products. You need to pay attention to the needs of your own body. Just because your five best friends didn't have negative reactions to Garcinia Cambogia doesn't mean your entire experience will be positive.
You may have, for example, a condition unbeknownst to you that interacts with Garcinia Cambogia negatively. Take note of any strange symptoms that you feel once you have taken the Garcinia Cambogia. Being alert to your body is extremely important, and your increased awareness of your own needs could help you to lose weight in the long term.
You also must understand that the quest to lose weight must stop at some point. A time will come when you get to the lowest possible healthy weight for your body, and you don't necessarily want to get to that point either. When you have reached your ideal weight, you must be careful about continuing to take Garcinia Cambogia. If you constantly feel the need to do so, even though you are already at a healthy weight, then you may have another issue manifesting. Make sure that you are aware of these issues too.
As you can see, the safety of Garcinia Cambogia depends upon you and how you use it. People have certainly used it without a problem. However, if you don't follow the directions or if you have a certain condition, then you may end up experiencing health and safety issues.

WikiLeaks: DNC Chair Donna Brazile Caught...Again
There seems to be no low to which DNC Chair Donna Brazile won't go when it comes to getting Hillary Clinton elected. Just when you think you've found the bottom of her corruption, it drops out from underneath you.
On October 11, WikiLeaks released an email allegedly hacked from the account of Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta in which DNC Chair Donna Brazile gave Clinton staffers a debate question ahead of time.
The email, titled: "From time to time I get the questions in advance," was sent to Clinton's communications director, Jennifer Palmieri, on March 12, the day before a primary debate with Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
As Daily Wire previously reported, Brazile got into a dizzying exchange with Fox News' Megyn Kelly in which she eventually denied the email's authenticity. Unfortunately for Brazile, Errata Security's Robert Graham seemingly verified the email using a DKIM program. WikiLeaks then released another email from Brazile in which she once again provided Clinton staffers with information--this time, the day before the Flint, Michigan primary debate.
Shortly after these emails were made public, Brazile was forced to resign from CNN, where she was a contributor. CNN spokesperson, Lauren Pratapas, released a statement saying that the network was "completely uncomfortable with what we have learned about her interactions with the Clinton campaign while she was a CNN contributor." Brazile tweeted a fond farewell, as if her resignation from CNN was amicable.
Once again, WikiLeaks has hit Brazile right in the mouth.
In a Monday document dump, WikiLeaks released another email from the "I get the questions in advance" email chain, this time with two more questions--one about unions, and the other about income inequality:
Even in the face of all this, Brazile is brazen, telling SiriusXM's Joe Madison Monday: "My conscience, as an activist, as a strategist--my conscience is very clear." She went on to provide a long-winded explanation in which she exonerated herself because she's "in touch with everybody," and she "also talk[s] to Republicans."
Brazile's attitude appears to be a sign that the interim DNC Chair doesn't believe what she did was wrong. She got what she wanted: A Hillary Clinton nomination. The ends justified the means.

In 2015 I was encouraged twice, almost simultaneously, but independently to turn my head towards Asia. To turn my head in a broader sense of course, since I already knew about the high speed of technological development in Asia. Through a workshop offered by Nordic Culture Fond in Helsinki, I met Executive Director of Finnanimation Liisa Vähäkylä, who has many years of in-depth experience with Scandinavian co-production with China, Hong Kong, South Korea and Japan. She has now written an article for us about the importance of understanding and collaborating with the huge markets and professional/technical skills of Far East Asia. You can find her article on the next page and you will also be able to meet Liisa during The Financing Forum, where she will give a speech in this context and shed light on the key issues.
For the first time ever in the pitching section we present a European-Asian co-production between Italy, Germany and Singapore: Garden Gang (page 28).
Incredible India
I received an invitation to give feedback on six projects for children during the final session of the inaugural Childrens Film Screenwriters Lab, organized by National Film Development Cooperation NFDC/ Film Bazaar. It was of course impossible to say no to.
Film Bazaar is a platform exclusively created to encourage collaboration between the International and South Asian Film Fraternity.
After the six pitches, I, togheter with my co-expert producer/director Mette-Ann Schepelern, Denmark, had the pleasure to meet all the writers one-to-one. Out of the six first ever lab. projects for children in India we decided to invite two of them to come to Malmö:
We selected Sagarika Banik's A Lottery Ticket to join the Forum as a pitching project. It is a rite-of-passage tale about a boy who believes his lottery ticket will fulfil his dream of owning a bicycle one day: "Banik is telling a story for the story's own sake and with a truly local origin. We believe this project can turn into a beautiful film, with the right kind of roughness and cinematographic texture, which will inspire a young audience – not only in India."
The selected project A Lottery Ticket from India is presented on page 20.
Shreyas Govindarajan Thathachari's The Adventures of Kaka and Kiki received a special mention which entitles him an observer status at the Forum because: "Thathachari shows a deep flourishing insight in childhood. He understands how to transform his ideas into captivating storytelling for children." Shreyas will be available for one-to-one meetings.
The successful start of the Lab and what we experienced in Goa, resulted in a wish for a more formalised collaboration between Film Bazaar and The Financing Forum in the coming years. Head of NFDC Training and Development, Urmi Juvekar who runs the Screenwriters Lab. will join us in Malmö together with Sagarika Banik (A Lottery Ticket), Shreyas G Thathachari (The Adventures of Kaka and Kiki) and producers Ramon Chibb and Anku Pande Chibb, Mumbai.
Presence of Annette Brejner and Mette-Ann Schepelern from The Financing Forum added the competitive edge to our first ever edition of Children Screenwriters Lab at Film Bazaar. I do hope that a longer and mutually beneficial association forms between two events dedicated to support the best talent – says Urmi Juvekar

In a world where ash falls from the sky, and mist dominates the night, an evil cloaks the land and stifles all life. The future of the empire rests on the shoulders of a troublemaker and his young apprentice. Together, can they fill the world with colour once more?In Brandon Sanderson's intriguing tale of love, loss, despair and hope, a new kind of magic enters the stage— Allomancy, a magic of the metals.
The Final Empire was a book that was raved about wherever I looked for information and I can definitely see why. We follow a group of underground criminals as they launch into one of the biggest jobs of their lives, led by one of the most notorious criminals of them all.
I have to say that the characters made The Final Empire. Their individuality and personalities were what drew me into the story. Kelsier and his arrogance and self-worth. Vin and her determination for life. Hammond with his big muscles but soft interior. There are too many characters to name them all, but they were all unique and wonderfully written. I loved learning more about them, and seeing things through their eyes. Learning more about the world around them from what they saw and felt.
The magic system in The Final Empire is one of the best I have ever read, consuming different metals gives different people powers, unless you're Mistborn which means you can control them all. It's such a different way of doing it that it really impressed me. It brought something different to the plotline but without being overbearing, it added a sense of intrigue and gave the characters an extra amount of depth. Definitely a thumbs up for this book!
The plot for me was a little like déjà vu with Six of Crows to be honest. The job in this felt similar to the heist they complete in that. I think that the similarities are a little disconcerting, the charismatic leader and the street urchin who can't believe how lucky she is, it all seems to be a little close. That might just be me though.
Even with the similarities, this is one of my favourite books of 2016. This book definitely has the whole package and I really appreciated all of it. So glad that I finally made the time to read it!
Have you read this series? Were you as impressed with the series as I was? Let me know in the comments!

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) brought 400 refugees to the USA. These refugees are taking part in the New Roots program, a "6-year-old effort aims to help refugees get used to their new countries by allowing them to do something that is familiar and empowering: growing things", reports USA Today. The program supports 17 urban farms in nine US cities, where refugees grow vegetables and harvest or sell at farmers markets.

I want to mention two problems with what has been termed the "scientific method." But before identifying the problems let me assure the reader that I am well aware of the fact that the "method" has over many years resulted in much benefit to the human family. It is the method of trial and error. The scientist will imagine a working hypothesis or theory that he wants to test to see whether or not it can be identified as the given cause of a certain effect. He says to himself that if x is the case (my theory is correct as the cause of this certain effect), then y will follow. He runs his experiment and finds that y is, after all, certainly present. He then concludes that x is to be presently accepted as the cause of y.
Now, the first problem is a problem for atheistic…
