Did Dippy call Ranveer's dressing sense outrageous?
While Bollywood beauty Deepika Padukone continues to slay with every appearance, she has a piece of advice for her alleged boyfriend, Ranveer Singh, who has a thing for quirky dressing.
The actress gava a style advice to Ranveer as she appeared in a show along with sister Anisha Padukone. Apparently, when show host Neha Dhupia asked Deepika to complete the sentence, '"Ranveer, stop doing...", the actress was quick to reply, "Stop doing outrageous clothes."
Well, it's a known fact that Ranveer loves to experiment when it comes to fashion and guess that's the reason girlfriend Deepika decided to take a cute dig at her guy.
But guess Deepika doesn't know the fact that Ranveer is unstoppable when it comes to wearing outrageous outfits and while speaking to a leading magazine last year, he even went onto say that his craziest look is yet to come.
The actor added that he's always been a quirky dresser."In school and adolescence, I was known for my outrageous fashion. I was the first to sport baggy jeans and show off the top of my briefs as a fashion statement, the first to wear sports jerseys, use styling gel, wear chunky silver jewellery. It's how I have always been. People in my school WhatsApp group are hardly surprised; they say it's good to know I haven't changed," said Ranveer.
According to Ranveer, for every outrageous outfit he wears, he also has normal clothes. Well, we along with Deepika are waiting to see you dressed in normal clothes, Ranveer!
Meanwhile, here's a look at some of the most outrageous clothes worn by Ranveer.
A yellow ganji, white pants and pink shoes, well that's Ranveer Singh for you! The actor was spotted dressed in tee that read 'hip-hop' in Hindi and nothing about his outfit was matching. In fact, we don't know from where to begin.

Trust Ranveer to wear a skirt and carry it off still! The actor surprised everyone by a jacketed kilt and trousers by designer Rajesh Pratap Singh at an event. He teamed it up with a jumper courtesy Dan & Dean Caten, a leather belt by Armani and boots by Christian Louboutin.

We all love Mario, but Ranveer went to the extent of donning a bright red Super Mario tracksuit. The actor teamed the suit with blue sunglasses.

With a variety of features and brands we hope our site will help you to make the
best choice for your next pair of triathlon cycling shoes.
The Shimano TR70 is an elite triathlon cycling shoe. The Shimano Triathlon group meets the relentless demands of the Triathlon/Multi-Sport course with high ventilation, seemless interiors and quick drying mesh for superior comfort without socks. The Shimano SH-TR70 triathlon shoe is designed to help you to faster transitions in comfort and style.
There are many bike shoes in the market today, and finding the right pair for you can be a challenging task. There are many choices to choose from, but finding a pair that fits well is not that easy. Triathlon bike shoes need to fit your foot snugly. Loosely fitting shoes can result in a variety of foot issues when you execute each pedal stroke. On the other hand, if a shoe is too tight, this can also cause undue pain and result in additional injuries. You need shoes that will not result in foot pain after a few hours of use.
You want your triathlon cycling shoes to have stiff soles since this will provide better power transfer. Shoe manufacturers must strike a balance between fit, comfort and the rigidness of the sole. Taking all of these factors into consideration, Shimano has come up with the Shimano TR70 triathlon bike shoes. This is a high performance bike shoe that provides comfort, a very good fit and good power transfer. In fact, Craig Alexander used a pair of Shimano TR70 triathlon cycling shoes when he won in Kona back in the year 2008.
Shimano TR70 triathlon cycling shoes are made with a new technology called the Heat Moldable Custom Fit. This means that the various components of the shoes can be molded to fit a particular rider. The mouldable sections include the insoles and the upper section of the shoe. Moldable foot beds have been used in other shoes before, but never to this degree. By providing extra arch contour to footbeds, Shimano has been able to improve the shoe's comfort, even after hours of use. Shimano has also broken new ground by being the first manufacturer to provide a mouldable upper shoe section. Moldable shoes used to take time to make and cost a lot of money. Shimano has managed to do the impossible by providing an affordable shoe that can be molded right in the shoe store for the customer's convenience.
Shimano TR70 triathlon shoes can be molded to provide a custom fit in as short as 30 minutes. You just have to pick the right shoe size, and the bike shop attendant will take your shoes and bake them in an oven for a few minutes. After baking, you can wear your new shoes and the mold sets after a few minutes on your foot. This provides you with a custom fit that other shoes will be hard-pressed to match.
Carnac SFT1 Triathlon Bike shoes with MPS5 Sole which is a injected with carbon and Polyamide charged with user replaceable heel pad. Ideal compromise between rigidity and comfort.
Serious cyclists prefer SIDI's T2 Carbon shoe. The sleek deign features easy hook-and-loop straps, breathable perforations, and padded linings to comfort you the whole journey through. Unsurpassed technology, style and performance for 50 years make Sidi Cycling Shoes the number-one choice of professional cyclists around the world. Nothing fits champions like Sidi.
The SIDI T2 Carbon triathlon cycling shoe is our personal favorite. We currently use them. You won't find anything as comfortable and durable as the SIDI T2 Carbon triathlon cycling shoe.
We hope you enjoy your triathlon bike shoes as much as we enjoy ours.

The World Cup final on Sunday, July 15, between France and Croatia, was briefly interrupted when 4 pitch invaders affiliated to anti-Kremlin punk band Pussy Riot took to the field before being hauled off by stewards. Watch!
The intruders, who were dressed in police-style outfits, were later arrested by police, one of them told Reuters by phone from a police station near Moscow's Luzhniki stadium, venue for the match.
Authorities said they were investigating the 4 on suspicion of violating rules for spectating at a sporting event and for illegally donning police uniforms, the Interfax news agency reported.

Textile Careers Conference
Making It in Textiles
On 11th and 12th October 2016, over 100 final year textile design students and a number of their tutors attended this two-day event in Bradford. This was the third such conference (the first having been held in October 2014) with its aim to forge stronger links between education and the UK textile manufacturing industry. The event was a joint project between The
Campaign for Wool
, The Clothworkers' Company, The Drapers' Company and
The Weavers' Company
The idea behind the conference is that students no longer have the opportunity to learn about the textile industry first-hand by talking to manufacturers and seeing industrial production.
There is a skills and talent gap in the textiles industry. The UK industry is experiencing a resurgence and this is creating jobs. However, there are only a finite number of pure design roles available. Textile companies need young people with a range of skills who are interested in building on their design expertise to work in areas such as manufacturing, quality control and marketing.
The event comprised a half-day plenary conference where industry leaders talked about the opportunities on offer in the sector.
In addition, a panel of past textile graduates reflected on their career journeys and offered advice on entering the industry.
This was followed by visits the next day (in separate groups) to six local textiles mills for a tour of their production facilities.
Feedback from the students and tutors was once again very positive, with many explaining that they would not have been able to organise a similar opportunity for themselves and how it had widened their knowledge of textile production.

The End of the Small-Town Golden Age: A Rural Newspaper's Role in the Urban-Rural Clash of Anti-Catholicism
History 200: Gateway Research
Document Type
Student Paper
Publication Date
Spring 2015
History | United States History
Description, Abstract, or Artist's Statement
Anti-Catholicism is an often forgotten feature of our country's past that was extremely widespread, especially across rural America. In this essay, I focus on an anti-Catholic newspaper, titled The Menace, which was published out of the small Midwestern town of Aurora, Missouri and enjoyed national success. I argue that anti-Catholic sentiments were largely tied to rural values and fears of urbanization, which were being fueled by a massive influx of Irish and Italian Catholic immigrants into the United States. Rural communities cried out against this "Catholic invasion" because they truly believed that urban immigrant populations were taking away their political and economic powers. By considering the historical context of The Menace and the newspaper's content, I am able to trace the fears that were really behind the anti-Catholic cause.

I'm always surfing for free books and today I stumbled across an old favorite. I mean, I grew up on Harlequins. I'd be thrilled to death to be published by them. (*hint hint* Harlequin Editors)
I've found a few for free on Amazon, here and there. But today, low and behold I found the Holy Grail of free Harlequin books.
They have eighteen books for free downloads there. That's right the big one eight. Okay, three of them are in foreign languages, but if you're lucky enough to be a bilingual Spanish/English reader I'm envious.
Not only are the books free you can download them in several different formats. Epub or PDF are available. That's good news for my Sony PRS (Read: ancient, expensive e-book reader).
They even have several genres. There's everything from Paranormal and Suspense to Inspirational and Historical. So, guess what. I downloaded them all. (Okay, not the ones in Spanish)
'Cuz you know me, I can't pass up a free read, especially if it's Romance.
I know I said I was gonna do 365 days of Amazon freebies, but it won't hurt anyone to throw in a free book from somewhere else will it? (Say 'ow' if it does and I'll stop)
Besides a few of these are available on Amazon too. Use my handy dandy Amazon search widget on the left sidebar to check.
Last I looked this book was $0.01 on Amazon. That almost free.
Without further ado, here's my review! (ha ha, my mother would say, 'you're a poet and you don't know it')
Title: Once a Cowboy
Author: Linda Warren
Publisher: Harlequin (American Romance line)
Pages: approx 256 pages
Oh how I love sexy cowboys. This may be the first cowboy romance I've reviewed, but rest assured it won't be the last.
Look at that cover model. I just want to lick him.
Retired Pro bull rider Brodie Hayes finds out from sexy PI Alex Donovan that he's actually the child of a couple whose baby was stolen from the hospital forty years ago.
Well, there's one I haven't heard before. I guess these days us romance writers have to come up with some new and interesting premises to keep it fresh. This one is a doozy.
Now, Harlequins are known for being short and sweet and I've always found that I wished they were longer. So many times there are jumps in the story that I feel leave me hanging. That happened a few times in this book, there were several spots in the beginning chapters that I found myself wishing the author would have made this book a bit longer (but would have had to publish it with somebody else because of HQs guidelines/rules). Linda Warren wove it all together pretty well.
My biggest complaints were how long it took our hero Brodie to figure himself out. I felt like a forty year old man, even one who found out his parents weren't really his, wouldn't be quite so whiny about it. He was just a little to woe is me for my tastes.
I also didn't really get why Alex was attracted to him in the first place. (Besides the fact that he was six feet of cowboy scrumptiousness)
This is (probably) the third book in a series about some rodeo-ing friends and I did feel a bit lost at times (especially the epilogue) when the author threw in details about these very minor secondary characters. I again thought the book would have been better if it had been longer and I could have developed some attachment to those other hot cowboys. I do however appreciate when an author gives you a glimpse into characters lives from past books.
I'm big on first lines, but this one didn't really do it for me. You decide...
"The defunct air-conditioner spit out its last puffs of cool air about an hour ago."
This one would have grabbed me by the horns if this had been an erotic romance, but as it is, I say, 'eh.'
The plot being pretty original, the writing darn good with lots of emotions and an HEA I think it was one of my better free reads.
My recommendations:
I would have paid for this book, but not up to cover price. Maybe $2.99.
I may or may not seek more of this author's books out. This was a pretty good book, but I didn't love it.
This was definitely worth the one-click.
I give it four stars.

I am joining in with the lovely Lipsy from Lipsy's Lost and Found's feature which highlights our week in books. I shall be sharing what I'm reading now, then and next! I won't be showcasing my new books as I do that on a Saturday. I'm really excited by this feature as I loved sharing my recent reads. My book reviews published on my blog are often WAY behind what I'm actually reading, so this is a good feature to keep you up to date!
Book images go to Goodreads!
NOW– Two Steps Forward– Graeme Simsion and Anne Buist– I'm currently a quarter of the way through this book. It's not my favourite read, but it's easy enough to read and I'm particularly enjoying reading about their journey.
THEN– Look To Your Wife– Paula Byrne– I put my review up for this book yesterday as it is releasing tomorrow. It is a really interesting read about the dangers of social media. I didn't enjoy the main character, but it didn't affect my enjoyment of the story!
NOW– Lullaby– Leila Slimani– I am eagerly anticipating this book because I've heard good things about it! 🙂 I'm looking forward to reading a 'real' book after reading on my kindle for the past week!

White Plains, NY — My colleagues at the Board of Legislators on Monday night passed a measure that sets new rules governing the buying and selling of co-ops.
Under the legislation, the boards of cooperatives -- which approve the sale of individual units -- will have 15 days to tell buyers whether or not their applications for purchase are complete. Once an application is deemed complete, boards will have 60 days to accept or reject the application. If an application is rejected, the co-op board must send a notice of the rejection to the County's Human Rights Commission, which has the power to investigate instances of discrimination under the County's Fair Housing Law.
Unfortunately, I could not join my colleagues in supporting the measure. My "no" vote reflects the concerns of my constituents. I spoke with many co-op residents in my district who expressed concern that the measure could have a financial impact on co-op shareholders, possibly raising shareholder fees and increasing insurance costs for co-op boards.
Shareholders in cooperative housing elect their board members are confident in the decisions they make. Co-op boards are advocates for all shareholders in their corporations. My constituents thank their hard working board members for their time, dedication and fairness in protecting current and future shareholders.
We all agree that discrimination not only is illegal but is wrong. We need to make sure that people are protected from discrimination, and we need to make sure that people who have been discriminated against use the legal remedies already available to them, remedies that were available before this legislation.

NEW DELHI: Two days ahead of polling in Delhi, BJP chief Amit Shah today contended that the election outcome cannot be a referendum on the functioning of Narendra Modi government.
Dismissing surveys projecting a clear victory for AAP Aadmi Party, he expressed confidence that the BJP will form a government in Delhi with a "very big majority" and Kiran Bedi will become Chief Minister.
His comments are in line with the remarks of Union Minister M Venkaiah Naidu on Delhi polls.
"It is true that it is an election for Chief Ministership. The election in a state cannot be a referendum (about Centre's functioning).
"While this is indeed true that the good work of the Government of India has its impact on elections, a state election cannot become a refrendum (on Centre's functioning) because of that one thing.
"Venkaiahji has not said that. He has said that Delhi election is not to elect a Chief Minister. You also know the Constitution. Elections in Delhi are never to elect Prime Minister," Shah told CNN-IBN.
Holding that the electoral mandate in the national capital cannot be seen as a referendum on the Narendra Modi government, Naidu had told PTI in an interview, "It is an election for Chief Minister and not for Prime Minister."
"Narendra Modi is not fighting assembly elections. It is a state election. You are going to elect a Chief Minister not a Prime Minister. It is the BJP versus the rest. That is all".
Shah dismissed surveys projecting AAP as a winner and ridiculed Arvind Kejriwal accusing him of "trying to become a hero" by releasing its internal surveys to claim a winner.
Shah also dismissed Opposition raising questions over the BJP manifesto not talking about separate statehood for Delhi and said that this issue "should not be linked with with vote bank politics" and a decision on it should be taken through consultations after the poll noise is over.
Amid questions being raised over the projection of Kiran Bedi as BJP's Chief Ministerial choice, the BJP President remained non-committal on whether similar "lateral entry" of faces like Bedi will be experimented in other states including West Bengal.
"There cannot be a definite plan on whether to apply the strategy adopted in a particular state in other states as well because the dynamics and politics of every state are different.
"The political situation in different states is different and keeping that in mind, the party's Parliamentary Board will take a decision," he said.
Asked how important is Delhi for the BJP, he said that every election is important for his party and even elections happening in other states after this are important.

Directors: Julie Cohen and Betsy West
Last week I saw A Star Is Born, and I was told by many people to bring tissues. But I didn't shed a tear watching that movie. Instead, it was a documentary about an 85-year-old Supreme Court Justice that brought the tears on. There were so many things I found moving, starting from Bader Ginsburg's close relationship with her mother, who died when Ruth was 17, to her long marriage to Marty Ginsburg, a man who realized, from pretty much the first date, that he had met a person of unusual intelligence and strength.
She would need her strength in the early years of her marriage, when she was one of five women at Harvard Law. Her presence in class was suspicious, especially since she was married to a fellow classmate — why did she need to be a lawyer, too? The Dean hosted the female students for a special welcoming dinner, asking them: why did they think they deserved to take the spot of a man who was just as qualified? Ruth put her head down and made the Law Review. She also had a baby in her first year of law school. Oh, and Marty got cancer. Yes. He got cancer. Guess who cared for him, the baby, and graduated at the top of her class? Continue reading "RBG = Wonder Woman"

Well, we're near the end of quite a year, marked by up-and-down sales cycles that have become predictably unpredictable and an unprecedented presidential election campaign whose near-and far-term implications remain anything but clear.
Amid so much uncertainty, independent gourmet retailers fight their usual fight to see another year, which can be challenging enough when things seem far more certain. This was a year that saw another wave of attrition in the gourmet kitchenware channel. That may not be all that unusual, but this year it seemed more unsettling with the closing of some longstanding, flagship stores. Some were casualties of an unforgiving new marketplace, others retirements without a next generation to take the reins.
In the wake, many store owners are confronting their futures with more urgency. As they should. But the need to prioritize business challenges and opportunities in the immediate foreground should not compromise the vision required to move from an operation that chases sales day-to-day and month-to-month to one that is better equipped to manage unexpected hazards and detours without straying far from a well-charted course.
This edition of GOURMET INSIDER® serves up some ways to get started on that course. The 10th annual Gourmet Insider State of the Industry Report provides key sales statistics across core categories. While its understandable to view business within the tunnel of its own year-over-year performance, the ability to take a wider view of the market and to benchmark against others facing the same circumstances can be an invaluable business asset. Big data is not just for big companies. The smallest of operators will benefit from this and other detailed analytics previously unavailable to them.
This edition of Gourmet Insider also examines the succession challenge faced by the gourmet channel and what can be done to recruit new store owners. It is a challenge that can't stop at identifying people with a passion for selling cookware and cutlery. It must position the channel as one that combines all the intimacy, expertise and dedication of a traditional gourmet specialty business with the kind of state-of-the-art merchandising, marketing and operational infrastructure that appeals not only to a new generation of owners but also to a new generation of shoppers.
There are many things independent retailers can do to navigate these uncertain times. Improve digital capabilities, from POS management to e-commerce. Diversify marketing by optimizing social media and participating in cooperative loyalty programs that are available in many communities. Subscribe to market analytics. Scour trade magazines. Shop the shows voraciously. Take advantage of the advisory services offered by the buying groups. And be open to suggestions that challenge your instincts.
Today and tomorrow have converged, that's how fast things change in this new marketplace. A good short-term plan must do more than get you through the next year. It needs to help chart the course for a stronger future.

DEPRESSED "Afterlife in Darkness"
Self- released
What a piece of explosive and destructive death metal I have here! Coming from São Paulo, Brazil, these guys released an authentic jewel of death metal with high doses of brutality and holocaustic elements. According to bio, the band was formed in 1998, but they only released a demo 1999 before they parted ways.
The horde reunited in 2012 and they truly recovered an epic sound of bestiality in every track. Of course there are many influences, mainly from American death metal but I admit they have the knowledge of true morbidity in death metal, and all these tracks deliver high doses of technical but sick and chaotic stuff. Also, vocalist Giovani Venttura literally bites the microphone and gives a hyper-aggressive personality to the band. The recording sounds direct to the bone and it truly makes your ears bleed on every compass. It's a great debut album highly recommended if you are looking for complexity, brutality and good taste in death metal. – Victor Varas

UNA marks Nurses Week with acknowledgement, thanks and concern
Traditionally, Nurses' Week provides an opportunity to thank and recognize nurses for the important work they do – and, sometimes, to acknowledge the dangers they face in their work.
Each year Nurses' Week is celebrated internationally on the week that includes May 12 – the birth date of Florence Nightingale, who is widely recognized as the founder of the modern nursing profession.
In 2018, United Nurses of Alberta wants to use the occasion to raise awareness of abuse in health care worksites in Alberta and Canada – and to start a dialogue with stakeholders and the public that can help lead to solutions.
UNA has included this concern in its 2018 Nurses' Week advertising. We will continue to press for protection for nurses and other health care employees in their workplaces – whether they are hospitals, care facilities, clinics or private homes – as well as our patients, residents, clients and their families and friends
Statistics indicate health care violence concerns are justified
UNA believes the possibility of abuse or even physical violence may increase during medical emergencies when health care workers such as nurses are treating people in physical and mental distress. Hospital visits in particular can be frightening and emotional experiences for the sick and injured, the elderly, and their family members, leading to potentially volatile situations.
Alberta Workers Compensation Board statistics indicate the rate of workplace violence claims accepted by the WCB for health care workers is more than twice the rate for government and education workers, roughly 50 times the rate for manufacturing workers, and 60 times the rate for construction workers.
In addition, a recent survey of UNA members showed workplace violence, harassment and other forms of staff abuse affecting nurses continues to be a significant problem in Alberta health care workplaces. Close to half the working nurses who responded to the UNA survey said they had experienced physical violence such as being pushed, hit or having things thrown at them at work in the previous 12 months. Almost 18 per cent said they had experienced physical violence at work during their most recent five shifts.
Troublingly, respondents to the UNA survey indicated little has happened to improve this situation.
It's time to ensure nurses are safe at work
As some of UNA's online advertisements say, "It's Nurses' Week … time to recognize nurses for the work they do on the front lines of our health care system every day. It's time to make sure they're safe from verbal, emotional and physical abuse on the job."
How can you help? Simply acknowledging this reality is a step forward in governing our own interpersonal relationships with health care workers when health crises or emergencies take place.
UNA believes governments and health care employers must continue to play a crucial role in solving this problem by working to improve measures to reduce the amount of violence, bullying and other abuse in our workplaces. The best way to do this is to assure staffing in health care workplaces is at appropriate, and safe, levels.
UNA also calls for appropriate levels of security in all public health care workplaces – and that includes small rural hospitals." This means security must be there at all the times, not potentially hours away, as is now often the case.
UNA's Occupational Health & Safety Advisor is working with Alberta Health Services, police and other unions to ensure solutions to hospital security problems can be found.
UNA thanks nurses … and seeks their help
UNA acknowledges the selfless work of nurses everywhere. Like other members of society, we thank professional nurses for the pivotal role they play.
UNA also encourages all nurses – and especially UNA members – to use the Professional Responsibility Concern and Occupational Health & Safety Provisions in their UNA collective agreements to raise concerns about situations that could affect the health and safety of both patients and nurses.
Only with your help can we track problems in the workplace – and develop specific solutions to emerging problems. We can't track what's not reported.
For assistance filing a PRC or OH&S report, nurses can contact their Local Executive or call UNA at 1-800-252-2943.

Sequel to Spellcasting 201: The Sorcerer's Appliance, by Steve Meretzky
Editorial Reviews
Adventure Classic Gaming
There are far too many positive aspects of this game to be listed. In addition to the superb graphics and sounds, the game's humor is abundant and very funny. The game space is quite large and all of the locations are worth visiting beyond what you may need to do with the puzzles. The use of magic, while building on the previous titles, offers even greater opportunity for experimentation with lots of results possible from all sorts of different spells. The puzzles, which are numerous in this game, are all well thought out. Though differing greatly in style and difficulty from its predecessors, these puzzles still require fairly creative solutions that test your common sense. None of them, on the other hand, require huge leaps of logic or other unfair tactics. The game maintains its atmosphere completely throughout. It never loses its tone or strays away from the formula that has worked so well previously for this series. The only negative aspect of this game is the endgame sequence which can be mildly frustrating. There is one glaring (but not game altering) typographical error. The most disappointing part about the game or the series, though, is that there is no sequel!

The graphics, music and sound effects are of the same quality as those seen in Gateway. As you would expect from a beachside setting there is a lot a bare flesh on view but, even in 'Naughty' mode, there is no complete nudity. [...] I felt that this third game was the most difficult in the series so far with a lot of excellent puzzles and a great ending.

Games with maps... by Xionix
I started playing Counterfeit Monkey, and I notice a good map is a way for us newbies to get into the game more easy. And I hate to draw so, are any other games that got a in-game map? It can be any genre.
Games with graphics and/or sound by eyesack
I couldn't find an easy way to search for this, so I figured I'd ask the hivemind: What games use graphics and/or sound to enhance the gameplay, similar to City of Secrets and Necrotic Drift?

Bella Musica – Ann, Jean and Sarah – is a recorder trio based in the Forest of Dean. We love playing at community events, such as charity functions, fund-raisers, flower festivals, Christmas events etc. We play a variety of sizes of recorder, from the sopranino down to the contra bass. The choice of music we offer is very varied, and it suits all occasions and surroundings.
All three of us have broad musical tastes, and the music we play ranges from songs from the shows to serious classical music by the great composers in history. We span the ages, from medieval pieces to those written very recently. So a Bella Musica performance often includes the odd spot of Vivaldi, a rag by Scott Joplin and a song from the Sound of Music!
Most people have heard the recorder played by children, using very small instruments, and not making the nicest of sounds. We use the not-often-seen bigger recorders, which make a beautiful sound, and delight audiences. The reaction we usually get is "we didn't know recorders could sound like that!"
Our 'home ground' is the Forest of Dean, although we are also happy to play elsewhere – past or planned gigs include those in Chepstow, Cheltenham and Bristol. We are usually booked by community organisations, and we particularly enjoy entertaining groups who are trying to raise some money, or who may not usually be able to afford musical entertainment.

Our 2017 Poppy Campaign
Branch 594's 2017 Campaign
In Windsor the 2017 Poppy Campaign occurred from Friday October 27 through to Friday November 10; a total of 14 days.
Each Legion Branch within a Zone has its' designated areas they are responsible for in terms of education, outreach and that means the annual poppy campaign.
The annual Poppy Campaign is the one and only fund-raising campaign that helps keep our Veterans in the minds of the communities. By wearing a poppy one shows support and reverence for the sacrifices made by all of our Veterans, past and present.
Our Branch boundary is the area South of the EC Row Expressway, West of Jefferson, East of the boundary line of the Town of the LaSalle and North of Laurier Parkway.
Within our designated area we have permission from various retailers to place poppy boxes (195 boxes were distributed throughout our designated area) and to physically position volunteers at 7 different sites to pin poppies for donations.
Without these retailers, we would not have the opportunities to raise funds to support our Veterans and their families as needs arise.
The following is a list of the retailers along with the numbers of 2 hours pinning sessions where our volunteers are welcome to pin poppies year after year.
- The Beer Store – Dougall Avenue…………..12 – 2 hour sessions
- LCBO – Howard Avenue…………………………..12 – 2 hour sessions
- Costco………………………………………………………….20 – 2 hour sessions
- Super Store – Walker Road……………………..90 – 2 hour sessions
- Canadian Tire – Walker Road………………….90 – 2 hour sessions
- The New Metro Store –Devonshire……….90 – 2 hour sessions
- Walmart – Dougall Avenue……………………..90 – 2 hour sessions
We had the opportunity to pin poppies 404 – 2 hour sessions or 808 hours during this years' Campaign.
In addition, Devonshire Mall provides premier space, inside the Mall near the food court, every year, for a full 2-day campaign which is very well received. This 2-day campaign is supported by the entire 2715 Cadet Corps, including the pipes and drum band, our Branch President, Lt. Col. (retired) Morris Brause, the Cadet leaders and supporters, where information and education is provided to the public regarding Remembrance Day, the Legion, the Cadet Corps along with poppy pinning.
To run a successful Poppy Campaign a lot of volunteers are needed to support each of the functions involved:
- Secure sites to pin poppies and place boxes
- Committee to organize the distribution of Legion Poppy Letters
- Schedule set up for pinning
- Committee to set up the poppy boxes
- Deliver boxes, monitor the boxes and retrieve once Campaign is completed
- Count and roll the donations
- Record keeping and banking activities
- Enough people to pin poppies for 404 – 2 hour sessions
This year's campaign saw a total 57 volunteers to help with all of the above noted necessary functions, to whom the Branch is very grateful.
Despite the opportunity of pinning for 404 – 2 hour sessions, we were only able to pin for 105 – 2 hour sessions. We had a total number of 47 volunteers (out to pin poppies and at least 6 of those folks were not even members of our Branch). The face-to-face poppy pinning is so very important to the entire campaign by showing the community that there are real folks behind the boxes and the poppies, who care about our Veterans and the sacrifices they made, and continue to make, to improve our lives.
I would like to personally thank all those folks who volunteered especially the face-to-face campaigners and especially Mrs. Evelyn Bernyk, who in her 90's, pinned poppies well over 20 – 2 hour sessions. Evelyn, you are an inspiration to all of us and we couldn't have done it without your help, thank you.
Even though the membership participation for pinning was a mere 20%, it was a successful campaign with donations tallying $36,890.00 to date, and donations are still coming in.
Again, thanks so much to all those folks, members and non-members, who helped out during this years' campaign. It would be nice to improve on these numbers during the next campaign, so we can continue to support our Veterans and their families.
Kindest Regards
Archie Neilson
Branch President

We already saw this view as a postcard; here it is in a wider view looking all the way to the Flack Block and beyond. The Arcade was still standing at the corner of Cambie Street (in front of the second tram) with the Flack Block beyond on the other side of Cambie. We already identified the building with the curved second floor windows behind the first tram as the Mahon Block in the earlier post. Next door there's another 2-storey building that we've failed to confirm the identity of the builder; we think Thompson Brothers, a stationery company. had it altered in 1913, but we're not sure who built it originally.
To the east, the tall, thin building is still standing today – although in our summer shot the street tree hides it from this angle. It's the Skinner building, and it was built in 1898, so the second oldest on this block. It's four storeys with an almost fully glazed facade designed by W T Dalton for Robert B Skinner and Frederick Buscombe for Jas. A Skinner's wholesale china and glassware business.
Beyond that to the east is a rather handsome 1899 building, built for Thomas Hunter and designed by Blackmore and Son. Today it's one of the few 'gap teeth' in the city – the building was destroyed by fire in 2004. Next door to that is the oldest building on the block, the 1894 and 1898 Rogers Block designed by William Blackmore and Parr and Fee in two almost identical phases. As we noted on another blog, Jonathan Rogers would almost certainly be unhappy with the current use of his buildings. These days they house the offices of the Marijuana Party and the Amsterdam Cafe. In 1916 Jonathan Rogers was the main organiser in Vancouver of the People's Prohibition Association who successfully lobbied for the introduction of Prohibition in British Columbia (which lasted from 1917 to 1921).

Often as CIOs it is very easy to get caught up in the present; data centre 'fires', talent outages and so on. If you manage to book some time with your thoughts you might even reflect on social media, analytics and mobility. These are important but if we want a guiding star to provide us with an overall sense of direction I suggest we reflect on the user of the future.
Looking back the internet revolutionised the world of work and workers, particularly its capability as a tool for collaboration. Retrospectively we might think of this as the Internet of People. Today the Internet of Things is fast approaching. It's too early to say whether there will be a Facebook equivalent for household appliances. Nonetheless the potential impact of breathing intelligence into otherwise dumb devices, at home and at work, is huge.
Imagine shopping trolleys that can engage with check-out counters to ensure that the highest value shoppers receive the fastest checkout service rather than the current approach of providing a fast track for those who have only a basket worth of goods.
The use of devices to augment our human capability is nothing new. The spear was the first example of BYOD in the workplace. Many of us feel sub-functional if we leave home without our smartphone. Wearable technology is growing in popularity as people become interested in their self-generated data. Wearables from a human augmentation perspective is not a new phenomenon. Clothes were the first such technology and one could argue that cars similarly meet this criteria though they might be considered more (ill fitting) exoskeleton than clothing.
Google Glasses are augmenting our access to information as are the emergence of smart watches (for those too lazy to take their phone out of their pocket). But Google Glasses will no doubt become Google contact lenses. Further down the line Google eyes (or the equivalent) will no doubt turn 'wearables' into 'embedables'. Prosthetic body parts are not a new phenomenon. Like the tech vendors migrating from products to services so will the prosthetic vendors. To offer a complete maintenance package they will need to have internet connectivity to your new forearm. The Internet of People is, via the Internet of Things, fast becoming the Internet of Things in People.
There comes a point when the ratio (by volume or processing power) of technology to organic matter moves the human race from homo sapiens to cyborg. I prefer the phrase homo extensis or augmented man. In my mind (at least) it implies I have made an anthropological discovery rather than just engaged in a bit of science fiction.
The bottom line is that if you think users are pressurising you today in terms of their personal technology demands, you need to be aware that what you are experiencing is in fact the pre-storm calm.
To hark back to my reference to science fiction, the notion of the rise of the robots is of serious concern to government ministers torn between the productivity benefits robotics will deliver and the unemployment it will cause. I am less concerned about this because the likely longer term reality is that we will be the robots.
More to the point. Your highly augmented users will be looking to you for support. This will throw up a number of issues, including:
- HR's insistence that wearable devices become mandatory in order to monitor the productivity of the staff. The question arises as to who actually owns this data.
- As technology and organic tissue become more entwined the ability to provide staff with direct neural contact to the corporate data throws up some interesting security challenges. Today we are only a few key presses from the world's knowledge, tomorrow we are just a thought away.
These are just a few of the issues that will be upon us sooner than we think. My advice is to get out of technology management. Do you really want to be in the business of presiding over a help desk focused on body-part/consciousness upgrades?
No. I suggest you turn your IT function into a business service brokerage and stand aside as the next generation of bio-tech providers attempt to pass the blame on to the traditional tech players and vice versa. Your supplier relationships are with business service providers. It's their headache to resolve these dystopian contract disputes.
As a CIO you are in the insight delivery business. For one reason or another many CIOs have been sucked into technology management. It doesn't take a neocortex upgrade to realise that as challenging as users are today, their descendants are going to be a whole new breed of animal.

Great luxury ride
By Steve on Wednesday, April 17, 2019The GS offers a thoroughly enjoyable driving experience, from its incredibly well-appointed interior to the stylish, if somewhat aggressive, sheet metal. The V6 is smooth, powerful and easily gets you from standstill to highway speed in no time and the transmission shifts effortlessly at logical shift points, for the most part. Steering is easy and responsive, but does lack just a little in terms of road feedback. The Lexus isn't a Bimmer in terms of attacking curves or basic grunt, but it more than holds its own in the luxury performance category. But it's also not a Bimmer in terms of maintenance, which is a very good thing. The legendary Lexus reliability definitely lives in the GS. Lexus in general, and the GS in particular (if it survives the current sedan purge going on in the auto industry!) will be at the top of my list when time comes for a new car.

Luxury, Performance, Unbeatable Value
By JNovess on Monday, January 21, 2019I started with a Lexus ES, which is a great car as well, but transitioned to the GS 350 F Sport because I wanted a more performance oriented car. The GS is the perfect combination of performance, utility, comfort and reliability. It drives perfectly, and the cabin noise remains low at any speed. There are no rattles, squeaks or shuddering noises coming from anywhere in the car. Using the voice controlled navigation works surprisingly well, it removes the need to enter information manually, I find it works about 90% of the time making finding and entering locations easy. The interior is very comfortable, long drives are not a discomfort anymore, and air conditioned seats in Arizona during the summer are incredible. The exterior looks great, especially in F Sport, the car is a real head turner. There aren't many GS's on the road so they aren't as commonly seen as other cars, I have had more than a few inquiries about the GS and even who makes them. The value, a similar german car would have cost many thousands more, the reliability of a Lexus is going to mean years of trouble free driving and far fewer trips to the repair shop.

Lexus quality
By Tom on Saturday, April 25, 2020I purchased this car new, initially it had an oil leak that was covered by warranty. I also experienced an engine noise that sounded like the engine was pinging due to improper fuel at low speeds. Lexus could never " find" the cause after many visits to their service department. I then wrote a letter the manufacturer, low and behold they encouraged one more visit to my local service dealer and they fixed whatever was causing the problem. That was 4-5 years ago. It has been problem free. I am now ready to sell it since my wife can no longer drive and we do not need two cars. Our other Vehicle is a 2017 Lexus Lexus NX in which we love.

The Office of Marketing and Communications is located in Hopkins Hall. During the academic year, our office hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Summer hours are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
St. Bonaventure University has signed an agreement with D'Youville College in Buffalo that will allow graduates of SBU's master's degree program in Educational Leadership to get a head start on D'Youville's doctoral program.
If admitted, St. Bonaventure graduates can transfer up to 12 credits from their MSED program into D'Youville's doctoral program in Educational Leadership.
The reciprocal collaboration allows students in D'Youville's doctoral program to apply up to 12 of their credits toward the School Building Leader and School District Leader certifications offered by St. Bonaventure's School of Graduate Studies.
SBU graduates will be able to apply for admission beginning in spring 2019.
"This is a great opportunity for students at both institutions to expand their academic portfolios," said Dr. Lisa Buenaventura, dean of SBU's School of Education. "To be able to walk into a 50-hour doctoral program with 12 credits already completed is a tremendous benefit for our students."
The 12 credit hours will fulfill the D'Youville course requirements associated with its K-12 Professional Core and consist of four SBU courses: EDL 515, EDL 522, EDL 523, and EDL 524.
"D'Youville is proud to collaborate with St. Bonaventure to maximize opportunities for graduate students from both institutions, saving them time and money as they complete their degrees," said Mimi Steadman, Ed.D., vice president of academic affairs. "Through this partnership, and through rigorous preparation in research and policy, we are preparing graduates to be leaders in their schools and their fields."
The schools will share tuition revenue upon registration of the sixth and each subsequent student in each program; the host school keeps 70 percent. Each institution keeps full tuition for the first five students in either reciprocal program.
D'Youville's faculty who serve as dissertation committee chairs will create opportunities for doctorally prepared faculty at St. Bonaventure to serve on dissertation committees, in accordance with St. Bonaventure faculty experience, interest and student need.
Representatives from each school will meet at least twice during each academic year to assess and evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the agreement.
For more information, contact Dr. Margy Jones-Carey, director of SBU's Educational Leadership program, at firstname.lastname@example.com or 716-375-4026.
About the University: The nation's first Franciscan university, we believe in the goodness of every person and in the ability of every person to do extraordinary things. St. Bonaventure University cultivates graduates who are confident and creative communicators, collaborative leaders and team members, and innovative problem solvers who are respectful of themselves, others, and the diverse world around them. Named the #1 regional university value in New York and #2 in the North by U.S. News and World Report, we are establishing pathways to internships, graduate schools and careers in the context of our renowned liberal arts tradition.

Calls for input to reference groupBy Country News
DataGene is on the lookout for dairy farmers who keep meticulous records to join Ginfo, the industry's national reference group for genetic information.
Participating herds will have their two-year-old heifers DNA tested (genotyped) and classified for free and have the option to test young female calves at a discount.
They also receive a year's free subscription to the HerdData app and early access to DataGene's reports and tools under development.
To be eligible, herds need to be regularly herd-testing and recording information such as calvings, joinings, sires and dams, pregnancy test results and health events such as mastitis.
DataGene chief executive officer Matt Shaffer said Ginfo had enabled Australia to lead the world in genomic breeding values for traits that were difficult to measure such as feed saved and heat tolerance.
''Ginfo is a critical data set in the genetic evaluation system for the Australian dairy industry. It's enabled us to develop new breeding values and to improve the reliability of existing breeding values, especially fertility,'' Dr Shaffer said.
During the next couple of years, DataGene plans to double the number of herds in Ginfo to about 200.
Ginfo herds are located across Australia's eight dairying regions.
Jared and Courtney Ireland, who milk 420 Holsteins at Lockington, said the program had not changed the way they did things but had meant better ABV reliabilities, as well as new traits.
■Dairy farmers can express interest in joining Ginfo by filling in the form at: www.datagene.com.au or phoning Erika Oakes at DataGene on 0427 995 248 or emailing: email@example.com
