I raided 25 man last expansion, and am doing 10 man this expansion. I agree with everything you are saying, but personally I have been happy with my transition to 10 man. I find the atmosphere more personal in a 10 man group. For me it feels more like a group tackling a task, rather than a force of people directed by a select few officers. We still have a raid leader, but I feel like there is more personality present now.
I honestly wouldn't be too upset if 25 man raiding was phased out for all but LFR in the future. I think it would help with making interesting encounter design if there was only 10 man to focus on, and LFR 25 man was just dumbed down a bit from that. It seems more difficult to design the same encounter at the same difficulty for 10 and 25 groups. That being said, if they want 25 man to remain viable, they must offer some extra reward, or something, as an incentive.
I agree with Tim (except I've never raided 25s - only been playing for about a year, and only raiding for half that).
For people that believe that WoW Raiding is "Serious Business(TM)"... sounds like 25 man raids are for you. I say this, cause they sound like work.
For someone like me - I enjoy the challenge of raiding, but I primarily am in it for the camaraderie and the teamwork. I look forward to socializing and joking with my raid team... something that strikes me as being nigh impossible on a 25 man team. Hence - 10 man raiding is for me.
I raid for fun. When I work, I expect to get paid.
All that being said - I don't mind if they do something to help 25 man raiders set themselves apart, be it titles or achievements or whatever... as long as it's an aesthetic reward, and not a gearing advantage.
Well, as the article points out, running a 25-man is exponentially harder to do. If Blizz wants more customers, they are indirectly eliminating the raid size that is harder to do. If they announced it being eliminated, they would have complaints and quitting left and right. But, by ever so slightly nudging 25-mans out, they will fade away with the result of a happier player base that is less stressed.
That is, perhaps this is good for the players, and blizzard is indirectly steering in this direction.

The Air plane Joke!
An airplane was about to crash, and there were 5 passengers left, but
only 4 parachutes. The first passenger, Bill Clinton said, "I am
former President of the United States," So he
takes the first parachute, and jumps out of the plane.
The second passenger, said, I`m Antoine Walker, one of the best NBA
Basketball players, and the Boston Celtics need me, so I can`t afford to
die." So he takes the second parachute, and leaves the plane.
The third passenger, Hillary Clinton, said "I am the wife of the
Former President of the United States, and New York Senator, and I
am the smartest woman in the world." So she takes the third parachute
and exits the plane.
The fourth passenger, the Old man, says to the fifth
passenger, a 10 year old boy scout, "I am old and frail and I don`t have
many years left, so a as Christian gesture and a good deed, I will
sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute.
The boy scout said, "It`s Ok, there`s a parachute left for you. The
world`s smartest woman took my backpack."

Expanding ties between the state's two largest medical care providers, fast-growing Steward Health Care System has struck a deal with Partners HealthCare System to send its most severely injured patients from emergency rooms at Steward's 10 community hospitals to Partners-owned Massachusetts General and Brigham and Women's hospitals in Boston.
Steward employees learned of the plan in a letter from Dr. Michael Callum, president of Steward Medical Group, which represents about 700 doctors employed by the for-profit hospital chain. Under the arrangement, Callum said, Partners physicians will help several Steward hospitals establish trauma centers to handle less critical cases.

Winter Casserole Recipe: Shepherd's Pie
Recipes from The Kitchn
When the temperature takes a permanent nosedive and fall is starting to look a lot more like winter, shepherd's pie is one of the first things that I crave. One enormous square of this casserole, with its blanket of mashed potatoes and that savory meat-and-vegetable filling, sends a sigh of contentment through my whole body. One casserole makes more than enough for my household of two, so I can look forward to comfort meals all week long.
This is one of those classic comfort dishes that has endless numbers of variations. Make it with beef or lamb, or both. Or substitute the meat with quinoa and lentils for an equally-hearty vegetarian version.
I also love this particular combination of vegetables in the filling, but you can use whatever bits you have in your fridge. Leftover roasted squash, a half-cup of beans, tiny cauliflower florets, edamame, or even something like sautéed cabbage would serve you well here. I also love Kathryn's suggestions of adding rutabaga or parsnips to the mashed potatoes!
Messing up this dish is extremely hard to do, no matter what you throw at it. If ever in doubt, sprinkle another handful of cheese to the top and call everyone to the table for dinner.
Simple Shepherd's Pie
2 pounds (about 3 large) russet potatoes
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup milk or cream
1 - 1 1/2 pounds ground beef, lamb, or a combination
1 yellow onion, diced
2 carrots, peeled and diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup frozen corn
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
1 cup shredded cheese (optional)
Heat the oven to 375°F. Set a 9x13 baking dish nearby. (You can use an 8x8 pan if you prefer thicker layers.)
Peel the potatoes and chop them into large pieces. In a medium pan, cover them with an inch or two of cold water. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 18-20 minutes, until the potatoes are completely tender.
Drain the potatoes and mash them thoroughly with a potato masher or a fork until no lumps remain. While the potatoes are still hot, mix in the butter, milk, and a half teaspoon of salt. Taste the potatoes and add additional butter, milk, and salt to taste. Set the mashed potatoes aside until ready to be used.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the filling. Set a skillet over medium-high heat and add just enough vegetable oil to film the bottom of the pan. When the pan is hot, add the ground beef or lamb. Break the meat apart with a spatula and stir occasionally until all the meat is crumbled and browned all the way through. Transfer the ground meat to a separate dish. Pour off all about a few teaspoons of the fat.
With the pan still over medium-high heat, cook the onions with 1/2 teaspoon of salt until they have softened and turned translucent, 6-8 minutes. Add the carrots and celery with another 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and cook until all the vegetables are tender, another 8-10 minutes. Stir in the peas, corn, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and the reserved ground meat. Cook until the peas and corn are warmed through. Taste and add more Worcestershire sauce or salt as desired.
Transfer the cooked meat and vegetables into the casserole dish. Drop spoonfuls of mashed potatoes evenly over the surface, and then use a spatula to smooth the potatoes into an even layer. Create little peaks with the tip of the spatula or a fork if crispy edges are desired.
Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes. If adding cheese, sprinkle it over the top of the casserole in the last few minutes of cooking. For an extra-crispy top, run the casserole under the broiler for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Leftovers will keep for up to a week, refrigerated.
Additional Notes:
• If you like an extra-thick layer of potatoes, either double the amount of potatoes in this recipe or cook this casserole in a smaller baking dish.

Love it! What a great way to use more vegetables. We usually add mushrooms (fresh or dried) to ours, in addition to whatever veg are in season (we get a ton through our CSA), and we also add celery root, parsnips, rutabaga, turnips, etc. to the mashed potatoes in fall and winter. Yum.
Cottage pie is made with ground beef. Shepards pie is made with leftover lamb cut off a joint and any gravy.
This is a favourite cold weather meal in our home. Sometimes I like topping the meat mixture with sweet potatoes and minced ginger.
@JudiAU that's true today, but the terms used to be used interchangeably for whatever leftover meat was on hand (see Mrs. Beeton, etc).
In Québec, it's called pâté chinois (chinese pie). I have no idea where the name comes from. We make it with a layer of ground beef, a layer of corn (some use creamed corn), and a layer of mashed potatoes.
That looks incredibly dry! It really needs a little gravy, or even a splash of of wine / stock, added to the meat mixture before topping it and baking.
Like in this Alton Brown recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/shepherds-pie-recipe2/index.html
My Shepherd's Pie is never dry. I make it with ground beef or ground pork. I add a can of cream corn & add to the bottom & a bit in the middle before baking. Delicious & oh so moist! 😃
My fiancee hates Shepherd's Pie, thanks to her mother's terrible process of making it.
I offered to make it for her, when we got our house, but she has yet to take me up on the offer.
I will add this to my list of "for when the fiancee agrees, but in the meantime just for me" recipe list :)
I agree that it looks terribly dry and needs gravy inside. Also that cottage pie is beef and shepherd's pie is lamb only, preferably cut into small chunks rather than mince. I like to add allspice for another layer of flavor.
Growing up in Quebec, I know this dish as pâté Chinois (Chinese loaf). It's traditionally made with a layer of kernel corn, a layer of ground beef, and then mash on top, served with ketchup. Yuck. My dad's version was slightly better, using creamed corn and adding onions to his meat. But it was still a dish that made me go, WHY?!
Like the OP, I do see the potential in this dish and over the years I've come up with my own version. I like using peas, carrots, and kernel corn for the veggie layer, some lentils cooked with mirepoix in a brown gravy in the middle to add much needed moisture, and then finish with mashed sweet potatoes or butternut squash. Next time, I will try to remember to add cheese on top!
One of my favorite meals! And so quick and easy...I prefer to omit the tomato paste-and add a can of Campbells (or any brand) of brown gravy. It's like eating meatloaf and mashed potato in a spoon!
I love Chinese Pie! French-Canadian comfort food at its best. :) I've read that it was fed to the Canadian railroad workers by Chinese chefs and the recipe followed the Canadians to New England when they migrated to work in the textile mills.
This came out so good! I used ground turkey for the meat.
Thanks Internet Police.
Educating people does not make you police.
My fiancé insists that we call it by its French name. The first time I heard it, I literally thought they meant Chinese Food (takeout) and turned down the offer of a plateful. Whoops.
Oh yum! I really love myself when I make one of these. Lately opting for the low carb version with cauliflower instead of potatoes, like this http://muchadoaboutnoting.com/low-carb-shepherds-pie/
My mother made Chinese Pie when I was a child but we called it French Chop suey (sp?) and it was seasoned with cinnamon. I refused to eat it and still would today. I love Cottage Pie and Shepherd's Pie and often make it with leftover stew.

Are smarter people better investors?
Although there's been considerable debate over just what intelligence quotient (IQ) tests actually measure, studies have suggested that people who achieve higher scores are more likely to do well in school, earn more money and even live longer.
But does having a high IQ help when it comes to investing in the stock market? The answer, according to recent research, seems to be "yes" — with a few caveats.
A research team led by UCLA finance professor Mark Grinblatt concluded that people with relatively high IQs typically diversify their investment portfolios more effectively, and invest more heavily in stocks than those with lower IQ scores.
Those with higher IQs also tend to favour smaller-capitalization and value stocks, which tend to beat the broader market over time.
Remember, the name of the game is to choose asset classes that may go up when the others go down, and vice-versa. A well-diversified portfolio will grow more effectively as a whole over the long term.
"Compounded over many years, this return difference could contribute to the wealth gap between low- and high-IQ individuals to a greater extent than wage differences," Grinblatt suggests.
He came to that conclusion after dissecting a database following Finnish investors over a 20-year period.
Why Finland? First, Finland requires that all able-bodied young men perform mandatory military service. As a result, the researchers were able to obtain entry-level test scores for cognitive functioning in mathematical, verbal and logical skills, which were used as an indicator of IQ.
Second, all Finnish taxpayers are required to report their investment portfolios to the government as part of their annual tax filings. So, it was fairly easy to determine what these people ended up doing with their money.
The researchers then took these IQ scores and compared the investment results the conscripts — most of whom were about 19 or 20 years old at the outset — were able to achieve after they'd completed their tour of duty.
Their conclusion: Most of those in the perceived "smarter" segment came out ahead.
It's not that those with higher IQ scores were blessed with any particular stock-picking prowess, but they were more likely to construct portfolios with better risk/return profiles than their lower-scoring peers.
Low-IQ investors also tend to make more mistakes, the research suggests, which often deters them from further participation in the stock market. In short, they tend to panic when things get rocky — never to return.
At the same time, those in the low-IQ group that do remain invested don't diversify, are less likely to include mutual funds in the mix and tend to be attracted to big-name stocks that are making headlines.
High-IQ investors, on the other hand, do much better because they moderate their risk with better diversification, trade less, and maintain broader exposure to stocks of all types.
Unfortunately, the study doesn't take into account whether the latter group subsequently invested in other asset classes that might prove equally attractive, such as bonds or commodities. As well, no women were included in the sample.
Nor are a group of Finnish draftees necessarily representative of typical investors with broader backgrounds, particularly when you're trying to generalize across borders.
But the research does reinforce a few important guideposts. First, anyone hoping to get the highest payout at the lowest risk should broaden their asset class choices, lengthen their timeframe, and — for the most part at least — leave things alone.
In a follow up study using the same data, the researchers also concluded that high-IQ people are less subject to the "disposition effect," which suggests that investors are predisposed to hanging on to losers too long and selling winners too early.
Does that describe anyone you know? When your stocks take a hit, are you the type of person who can hold onto them until things improve? Or are you more likely to dump everything and get out while the going's good?
High-IQ investors also are more aggressive when it comes to tax-loss trading, which is generally perceived to be a sophisticated strategy.
In other words, when they do sell, it's driven by something other than panic. And, after harvesting the tax advantage, they're more likely to buy back again to maintain their longer-run asset allocation.
Whether you're actually smarter than the next guy is highly debatable. But there's no question that having a reasonable amount of money in the stock market is a smart choice.
While it may not pay off year-over-year, it's definitely the place to be over the long haul.

Demand vs. Supply Driven Innovations: US and Swedish Experiences in Academic Entrepreneurship
AbstractMeasured by per-capita publication measures, Sweden is an academic powerhouse. Hence, its inability to commercialize on these accomplishments is a puzzle. This paper attributes this failure to the top-down nature of Swedish policies aimed at commercializing these innovations as well as an academic environment that discourages academics from actively participating in the commercialization of their ideas. This sits in stark contrast to the US institutional setting that is characterized by competition between universities for research funds and research personnel, which in turn has led to significant academic freedoms to interact with industry, particularly by founding new firms. We conclude that the technocratic, supply-driven nature of attempts to exploit academic output in Sweden has been markedly less successful than the demand-driven market institutions in the US.

La Grande Guerre: French prints of the First World War
- 20 May — 28 September 2014 *on now
The first seven months of World War I are dramatically illustrated in the colour lithographs and woodcuts of the series La Grande Guerre. Scenes of action in the form of battles, sieges and airstrikes are punctuated by moments of relative repose, including commemorations, award ceremonies and depictions of the Allied forces, such as the English and Scottish taking five o'clock tea and Indian soldiers at prayer.
The prints will be shown in chronological order, so visitors to the gallery can experience a retelling of events from the perspective of France, from the taking of the first flag during the Battle of Saint-Blaise La Roche (14 August 1914) to the Fall of Przemysl (22 March 1915).

Silent Partners: Artist & Mannequin from Function to Fetish
- 14 October 2014 — 25 January 2015
For centuries, the mannequin, or lay figure, was little more than a studio tool, a piece of equipment as necessary as easel, pigments and brushes. This major new loan exhibition reveals the multiple purposes it serves - from fixing perspective and painting reflections, to being a support for drapery and costume - and shows how it gradually moved centre stage to become the subject of the painting, photograph or film, eventually becoming a work of art in its own right.
One of the most wide-ranging and ambitious shows ever hosted at the Museum, the exhibition will feature over 180 paintings, drawings, books and photographs as well as fashion dolls, trade catalogues, a series of extraordinary patent documents and videos. There will be paintings and drawings by Cézanne, Poussin, Gainsborough, Millais, Ford Madox Brown, and Degas as well as photographs by and of Surrealist artists such as Man Ray, Hans Bellmer and Salvador Dali; works by Jake and Dinos Chapman show that, even today, artists continue to be drawn to the creative potential unleashed by our artificial Others.
After its showing in Cambridge, Silent Partners will travel to the Musée Bourdelle, Paris. It will be accompanied by a lavishly illustrated book published by Yale University Press in association with Paris Musées.
The exhibition also forms part of Curating Cambridge: our city, our stories, our stuff, presented by the University of Cambridge Museums with the Festival of Ideas.

TEAMS: Baltimore Orioles, New York Yankees
During Tuesday night's YES network broadcast of the New York Yankees game against the Baltimore Orioles, they stumbled onto something interesting pertaining to Orioles second baseman Robert Andino. When comparing profile photos of Andino over the last three years, it's clear that the smile has gradually disappeared from Andino's face.
At least in 2011 he tried to force a smile, but this year, Andino didn't even try. Maybe some more winning by the Orioles would cheer him up.

Easy stir-fry! Added thinly sliced red bell pepper and used jalapeno as I couldn't find the red chilies. Served over jasmine rice and drizzled a bit or siracha over it. Will make again for sure!
Thai Chicken with Basil
An abundance of whole basil leaves joins chicken and fiery red chiles for a quick, delicious,and decidedly spicy stir-fry. Holy basil is the most authentic choice, but any variety will do.
Yield: 4
- 1 1/3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4), cut into 1-by-2-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons Asian fish sauce (nam pla or nuoc mam)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 1 large onion, cut into thin slices
- 3 fresh red chiles, seeds and ribs removed, cut into thin slices, or 1/4 teaspoon dried red-pepper flakes
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1/2 cups lightly packed basil leaves
- 1. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken with the fish sauce, soy sauce, water, and sugar.In a large nonstick frying pan or a wok, heat the oil over moderately high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in the chiles and garlic; cook, stirring, 30 seconds longer.
- 2. Remove the chicken from the marinade with a slotted spoon and add it to the hot pan. Cook until almost done, stirring, about 3 minutes. Add the marinade and cook 30 seconds longer. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 cup of the basil. Serve topped with the remaining 1/2 cup basil.
- Wine Recommendation: Look for a rich but dry white wine, such as a pinot gris from the Alsace region in France.
- Notes: Asian fish sauce is available at Asian markets and many supermarkets

Link Love No. 55!
I have been spending nice quality time with my family since Friday night. We are also planning to work on our garden on Monday. The funny thing is, sometimes kids enjoy the most plain, simplest things rather than big vacations. They are so looking forward to going to the nursery to pick out some plants for our garden on Monday. I am planning to have a picnic in our backyard after the yard work with some sandwiches and lemonade (I haven't told this to the kids yet... who knows, mommy changes her mind and rather go through a drive-thru). I know they would like that.
It was hard to choose only five from so many wonderful projects... but here are the link loves for this week.
A belt such as this would add such an effect to a dress. Me Sew Crazy shared this charming window belt. This technique is often used for quilt making, but I never thought about using it like this. Very unique and pretty!
Jengerbread Creation shared this tutorial on how to make this beautiful necklace. Her step by step tutorial is very easy to understand. You could do two or three different types of pearls like she did or just use one type of pearl to make a necklace. This would be a great way (and inexpensive way) to spice up your summer wardrobe!
There are so many birthday party themes out there... grey luster girl used a "circus" theme and came up with a really fun and cute birthday party for her niece. Please go check out her blog to see all the pictures she posted, you will know what I mean. :)
Oh, my heavens. I LOVE this bracelet! This Anthro inspired bracelet was created by Flamingo Toes. Even though this is a "knock off" project, it still takes talent to coordinate everything. I think her use of colors and balance between the objects are just superb. Great job! I need (want) one like this for this summer. :)
When I saw the picture, I seriously fell in love with this! Acu's Stiletto Shoes, and Pretty Pink Tutus shared this one of a kind jewelry holder. She used a vintage candelabrum her grandma gave to her. With spray paint, and a little bit of imagination, she found another use for the candelabra. Simply gorgeous!
I posted all the quilt market and meet up pictures last week. I will be posting some of my creations this week. Make sure to come back to see what I have been working on! :)

WAUSAU, WI (WTAQ) - Republican lawmakers have been told they aren't welcome at the Labor Day parade in Wausau.
The Marathon County Central Labor Council is sponsor for the parade held September 5th.
A spokesman says the group of about 30 labor unions chooses not to invite elected officials it feels have, "openly attacked workers' rights."
A spokesman for Republican Representative Sean Duffy says the congressman had hoped political differences could have been set aside for what is billed as a family-friendly event.

Well-being Kitchen tea party in Zimbabwe
After a full month's hard work in the market, my body grew tired. My right breast was painful, and so were my legs and bones. I couldn't do my morning jogging exercises anymore, as I had to catch taxis to the market at 5pm every day, to be in time for the opening of fresh clothes bales. If you get there early, you get a better selection of old clothes that sell faster. By 8am I had to be on my way back home, to shower, eat and go to Epworth, the semi-rural market on the outskirts of Harare, where I sell from. My body really needed a break, time away from the noisy market place, a relaxing atmosphere to sit and chat with my girlfriends.
The idea of throwing a kitchen tea party for the market women quickly came into my mind. This would help all of us to take a break from the long, busy and tiring activities that have become part of us. We would surely lose a day's sales, but the idea of playing to loud rhumba music, eating braid meat over glasses of fruit juice quickly solicited support from 25 women. I also invited 3 friends of mine who work with NGOs, my neighbour Linnet and her friend.
I seized this opportunity to try out the heart-mind-body process that JASS launched in Zimbabwe in April, to which I was part of the organising team, to further experiment with the methodologies. This would be a kitchen party with a difference.
Following morning I brought tiny cheaply printed invitation leaflets for each of the women. The invitation rules were clearly articulated on the invitation card:
• Bring a 1 litre drink of your choice
• No beer, only red or white wine and 100% juice
• Bring two fresh fruits of your choice
• Dress casually
• You can mix & match
• No smoking
We met at my rented house in Hatfield. The women came, all dressed in colours of the rainbow. We sat down in a circle on the fitted carpet. In the centre was a glass jar, a bowl of sand, a teaspoon and a bowl full of fresh roses.
We started with introductions. Each woman would say out her name, name one woman that inspires her most and tell why that woman inspires her.
After that we did breathing exercises, using a bicycle wheel and pump to illustrate. On pumping in pressure the wheel would bulge, and inflate when pressure was taken out. This is how proper breathing exercises should be done, filling the tummy with air and inflating the tummy on breathing out.
We then did a ritual with the stuff at the centre of the room. We poured dirty sand, teaspoon by teaspoon into the jar, until it was half full, and explained how bottling up annoying issues, anger, etc. will fill the body with garbage until somebody got sick, hence the need to empty the garbage and re-fill our bodies with goodness. We emptied the jar and took turns to drop flowers and as they did so. I advised that the body can be emptied through eating well, exercising, sharing stories, resting, meditating and yogi.
After this we broke out into 5 groups, where women took turns to share fears and threats, followed by coping strategies. After this we took a break for ginger tea with lemon and honey, served with home baked muffins.
The reporting back session took us to the lunch hour, and we took a break to stuff ourselves with well-prepared traditional dishes. We had juices and wine, and a desert of fruit. We treated ourselves to rhumba music and dance before we re-visited the reporting back session.
Maria's story was the most touching of them all. Maria is my neighbour's friend. She is a branch manager at a local bank and was invited at my friend's recommendation.
This was the first time Maria shared her story with anyone. Maria works at a local bank, and her husband is a company CEO. Her husband insists on picking her up from work every day, although she owns a personal car. On arrival home, he inserts two fingers into her vagina, to check if she had sex at work. Each time his fingers come out wet, he accuses Maria of sleeping around and starts beating her. Maria only gets a break from this when she is having her monthly period.
I have resorted to drying my vagina every day before I leave work, and will insert tissue paper to absorb all moisture so that when I get home my vagina will be completely dry … .
Maria could not finish her story, she broke down and sobbed. To get around this emotional moment, each woman was advised to get a clean sheet of paper and write Maria a letter, comforting her and advising her on how to deal with her situation. One of the letters read thus:
Dear Maria
I love you. We all love you because you are a brave woman. Please stop crying, and stop pitying yourself. Stand up for yourself, for your children and for all the other women around you. Your husband is an abuser, and reporting him to be charged for domestic violence is the ideal step to take. Ask your heart, do you still love him, and want to spend the rest of your life being abused. Stop inserting paper into your vagina, you will get infections. I can't imagine a dry vagina Maria. Go to Musasa Project, they will help you.
Take care of your body. Take the garbage out, and fill it with flowers, with love so that you don't get stress.
Lots of love,
We took turns to read the letters to Maria, and by the time we finished reading the last letter she was composed and listening attentively. It was getting late, and most of the women had to travel as far as Epworth.
Before we closed I told them in brief about the JASS's heart-mind-body process, explaining JASS' commitment to empowering women to change their lives for the better. We placed a chair at the centre of the room and created a JASS Southern Africa Regional Office. One woman sat on the chair, wearing a hat made of paper, she became Shereen Essof. We took turns to thank JASS and to request for more professional heart-mind-body spaces in future.
The JASS heart-mind-body project offers a safe space for reflection and emotional support, while also enabling women to analyse and strategize around how to engage in the new and changing context safely. Women enact serious forms of violence on themselves by overworking themselves, and by refusing to acknowledge that resources can be used for optimizing individual strengths, for reflection and caring for individuals. They focus far too little attention on their own health, well-being and needs until the problem becomes acute.

Statkraft's new 430MW Knapsack 2 combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power plant, in Germany, has not generated electricity commercially since it was inaugurated last Thursday, the Norwegian utility said on Monday.
This comes as German spot power prices turned negative on Sunday because nearly 30GW of solar- and wind-generated power hit the grid.
Given the dire outlook for natural gas plants in Germany, Statkraft reiterated its demand for a capacity market. The implementation of the capacity market has been held back in the short term because sufficient capacity is available in Germany to ensure security of supply, Statkraft said in a statement last week.
Weighing up costs
Knapsack 2 was unlikely to begin generating before autumn, said a Statkraft spokeswoman. The lack of need for peak plants in Germany during the summer even if demand is much reduced at the weekend - was demonstrated on Sunday.
Prices for afternoon hours on Sunday were negative on the EPEX SPOT exchange. On the Day-ahead exchange, individual hours on Sunday from 14:00 hours German time to 16:00 both traded at minus €100/MWh.
Consequently, Statkraft planned on Saturday to reduce output from its direct marketing windpower portfolio by 950MW/hour.
"We didn't sell on the Day-ahead," the spokeswoman said. The utility estimates that prices would have been as low as minus €300/MWh if it offered the capacity on the market at that time.
The planned reduction in supply might have contributed to the intra-day hours on Sunday only trading as low as minus €56.00/MWh. The minus figure pushed Statkraft to sell the windpower output on the actual hours on Sunday as they would lose more by not selling it at all. Statkraft must compensate the owners of wind farms it has contracts with for electricity that could have been produced but was not sold. This means it is more cost-effective to sell down to prices at minus €60/MWh to minus €70/MWh, the spokeswoman said. Martin Degen

Welcome to Cromwell Trucks
Cromwell Trucks, arguably the largest independent used truck sales centre in the UK.
Available now at Cromwell's 4-acre site in the West Midlands, our large stock of used trucks and commercial vehicles is fully tested and prepared by skilled automotive professionals; if required, we also paint trucks to specification.
"We are uniquely placed as a business to make large stock purchases of late model used trucks, giving customers a good choice and the option to buy more than one vehicle."
Adam Sansom; Cromwell Trucks
Our vast turnover of stock can sometimes mean that not all vehicles 'in build' or recently on site will be featured in our used vehicle catalogue so please contact us for availability or to enquire about any specific used vehicles. Please note that we usually have duplicates and variants of most of the used trucks featured.
To hear first about new stock and special offers, please subscribe to our newswire. We can then inform you DIRECTLY of any used trucks and commercial vehicles which come into stock that may suit your used truck requirements.
