Get Ready to the World's Largest Self-Insurance Event!
August 13, 2018 – With just six weeks until SIIA's National Conference & Expo begins in Austin, we have several important updates and reminders to share with you at this time.
Session/speaker list firmed up…since the time the program was announced in April, some educational sessions have been added along with new moderators and speakers. If you have not looked at the program for a while (or at all), now is a great time to do so in order to see all of the great content that is on tap.
Look who's coming…More than 1,500 have already registered to attend. You can view the current attendee list by clicking here.
Don't be left off the list…if you are planning to register but have not already done so, we encourage you to do so at your earliest opportunity so we can add you to the attendee list. People are using this list right now to schedule meetings so you might miss valuable connections by waiting to register.
And don't be a "unregistered attendee" …It's bad form. A more practical consideration is that an increasing number of SIIA members will not meet with those who show up without registering for the conference. Don't be "that guy."
A place to stay…the host hotel has been sold out for some time but there is still availability at nearby hotels. That said, many of those hotels are expected to sell out so don't wait to make your lodging arrangements. A listing of alternative options can be accessed by clicking here.
A place to meet…We have a limited number of private meeting pods that can be reserved for the conference. Contact Justin Miller at email@example.com for more info.
Under 40? You will have plenty of company in Austin…Almost 150 younger members have signed up to attend as part of the SIIA Future Leaders (SFL) initiative.
Bad with names and faces?… Not to worry as conference attendees will have access to the NameSleuth App, which will help you match names with faces, before, during and after the conference.
Promoting your corporate brand…There a very limited number of sponsorship/exhibiting opportunities still available. Please contact Justin Miller right away for details – email@example.com.
And don't miss the closing conference party…Join us Tuesday evening from 7:00 PM – 10:00 pm as we head to one of the most unique entertainment areas in Austin…. historic Rainey Street! Located just a short distance from the Marriott, Rainey Street features 1930's-era bungalows that have been renovated into casual bars with front porches, backyards and picnic tables. We'll experience local foods, local music and a local vibe. Leave your attitude at home and "Get Local!"
For more information…See event details on-line at www.siia.org, or call us at 800/851-7789.
Medical Tourism is Growing Rapidly
TTNWorldWide.com – The global medical tourism market was valued at $15.43 billion in 2017, and is expected to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5 per cent during the forecast period of 2018-2023. According to Mordor Intelligence's recently released report 'Global Medical Tourism Market – Segmented by Treatment Type and Geography – Growth, Trends and Forecasts 2018 to 2023', Asia-Pacific accounted for the largest share of around 40 per cent of the global market, whereas, North America was estimated to register the fastest CAGR over the forecast period.
Governments across the globe have taken up various initiatives to stimulate and improve medical tourism in their respective countries, to improve patient quality care and boost the market. Many countries recorded significant economic development potential in the emergent field of medical tourism. Cosmetic surgery, dental care, elective surgery, fertility treatments, cardiovascular surgery, and genetic disorder treatments are the most preferred forms in this sector.
Countries in Asia-Pacific, Middle East, and South America provide high-quality medical services at a much lower rate, compared to the developed economies. There are companies that cater to all the medical and non-medical needs of tourists, during their travel.
The UAE has been ramping up efforts to improve its medical tourism offering by continually investing in its healthcare system. It was reported last month that details of patients who travel to Abu Dhabi to seek medical care will be recorded on the Abu Dhabi Department of Health's Shafafiya e-portal starting September. Also last month, the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) announced plans to open an oncology and research center in Dubai by 2020, aiming to provide state-of-the art oncological services for all types of cancer and across all age groups under one roof. In its first phase, the center will cater to 700 patients, which is 35 per cent of the total number of diagnosed cancer patients in Dubai, some of whom are most likely travelling outside Dubai to seek related treatment.
The Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage (SCTH) has been promoting medical tourism to boost the local tourism sector. As a part of its plan to pave the way for investment in touristic sites, the SCTH established public facilities around the geothermal waters of Al-Dobdobah well. The sulfuric hot spring waters are known for their medicinal properties and attract a lot of medical tourists.
In October 2017, the Indian ministry of finance, in association with the ministries of tourism and health, launched a portal, www.indiahealthcaretourism.com, for helping medical travelers with a comprehensive information base. The portal offers information in Arabic, Russian, and French.
This April, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital signed a $5 million contract to export its software system to the Clemenceau Medical Center at Dubai Healthcare City. The consortium's digital storing and data processing for patients' records and administrative processes has been popular with users and was successfully installed in six hospitals in Saudi Arabia in 2014. Clemenceau, an affiliate of Johns Hopkins Medicine International, is headquartered in Beirut, Lebanon and recognized as one of the top 10 hospitals globally for medical tourism by the independent international organization Medical Travel Quality Alliance (MTQA). Another regional hospital that has made it to their 2018 top ten list is, The Specialty Hospital in Amman, Jordan.
Julie Munro, founder and president of MTQUA, "There is generally still a great deal of confusion as to what [the medical tourism] industry is. I'm not confused. Medical travelers require different and more care management than local patients do. Medical tourism stands on three legs. One leg is care management. The other legs are trust and communications. If any one of these is off kilter with the others, the provider's medical tourism program is not sustainable."
MTQA has partnered with Lata on a medical travel specialist program for travel agents. The first of several courses is now online and is titled Assisting Travelers with Special Needs.
Medical procedures, such as heart surgeries and joint replacements, sometimes require patients to follow up for longer periods of time. These follow ups can last for three to six months. However, in the case of medical tourists, they leave for their home country as soon as they are deemed fit for travel. Therefore, follow up mostly happens through online consulting. Online consulting is not always as effective as in-person consulting and can lead to unintentional skipping of important points.
Some ethical concerns regarding medical tourism, like differentiating between the standards of treatment for foreigners and the locals, can hamper the market. In addition, the people from developed countries or other places are prone to diseases/infections in the host country. All these factors are anticipated to restrict the market's growth.

Travel Medical Insurance Saves the Day for Sick Canadian in Myanmar
By: Bethan Moorcraft
Insurancebusiunessmag.com – It's amazing how quickly a dream vacation abroad can turn ugly. We go travelling to experience new sights, sounds, tastes and smells, but travel also exposes us to new and complex risks. That's where travel insurance truly comes into its own.
Seven Corners travel insurance customers Daniel and Felipe were halfway through a four-month trip to Southeast Asia and Central America, when Felipe contracted a rare stomach virus in Myanmar and was told by local physicians he could require surgery.
Daniel immediately contacted Seven Corners' 24-hour assist number where he was connected with a Global Case Coordinator who reassured him Felipe would get the appropriate medical care, as written in the Seven Corners Liaison travel medical plan. The plan offers comprehensive medical coverage, access to an extensive network of worldwide healthcare providers, and 24-hour multilingual travel assistance.
In order to help Daniel and Felipe, the Seven Corners assist team had to work through a 10.5-hour time difference and communicate through a language barrier in rural Myanmar to set up an emergency evacuation. In less than 24-hours, Felipe was evacuated by air ambulance to Thailand, where he was treated in a state-of-the-art medical facility. After being discharged, Seven Corners secured the couple flights home to Canada, where Felipe continued to rest and recuperate.
"This case illustrates one of the most important reasons for purchasing travel insurance – it provides coverage and assistance for unexpected travel issues," commented Justin Tysdal, co-founder and CEO of Seven Corners. "As a travel insurance provider, our customers contact us daily for help.
"For this case study, Felipe was in an area that did not have appropriate medical care, so we arranged and paid for an emergency medical evacuation to ensure he received the care he needed. Travelers who do not have this type of insurance protection do not have the funds or the know-how to arrange an evacuation of this type.
"In addition, most domestic health insurance plans do not cover you while traveling abroad except for specifically defined emergencies. To be covered, the injury or illness must fit the domestic insurance company's definition of an emergency, and the benefits typically do not include coverage for an emergency medical evacuation."
No-one expects to get struck with a strange illness while traveling abroad. In fact, it's the last thing most travelers think about when they're excited to make a dream trip. This "lack of knowledge" and expectation is one of the greatest challenges for travel insurers and brokers, according to Tysdal.
"There's a large percentage of travelers who remain unaware of the existence of travel insurance," he added. "And for those who are aware of travel insurance, they do not understand the many ways this type of coverage can help travelers if they need to cancel or interrupt a trip or become sick or hurt while traveling."

USA Today: Hospitals routinely skip safety protocols that could prevent death in childbirth
By: Paige Minemyer
FierceHealthCare.com – The United States may be the most dangerous country in the developed world in which to give birth, as many hospitals routinely fail to perform basic safety practices, according to a new report.
USA Today combed through more than a half-million quality records from hospitals across the country and found at some facilities, less than 15% of mothers at risk for complications such as stroke received recommended treatments.

£25m in extra funding for the offshore wind industry!
The UK Government has announced they will increase the funding available to offshore wind, alongside some other less known technologies under the Contracts for Difference regime.
The DECC (Department of Energy and Climate Change) has allocated an extra £25 million starting in 2017 to 'Pot 2 funding' which also covers marine and some biomass in addition to offshore wind projects.
However, technologies such as onshore wind and solar will remain the same as previously funded at £50 million in the first year and then at £65 million in the following years.
The total Contracts for Difference spending will now be £50 million in 2015-16!
Ed Davey, the DECC secretary said:
"The high demand for contracts shows that we're one of the top places for renewables investment, and the best place in the world for investing in offshore wind."

Report: Drug companies wary of repeated calls for emergency vaccines
A growing number of vaccine makers are expressing concerns about their ability to quickly develop new vaccine candidates against emerging disease threat, such as Zika and Ebola viruses, Stat reported today, based on interviews with pharmaceutical executives, government officials, and infectious disease experts.
Companies such as Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK), Sanofi Pasteur, Merck, and Johnson & Johnson have responded to urgent requests from governments and global health groups when new threats such as Zika arise. However, the companies have grappled with expensive disruptions in their regular operations, research and regulatory hurdles, lack of solid development support from governments, and a lack of a market for the products after the threats diminish.
For example, GSK told Stat that it has proposed dedicating one of its facilities to producing emergency vaccines, but funding commitments haven't come through.
Richard Hatchett, MD, chief executive officer of the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), which launched in early 2017 to advance the pipeline for public health threats, said that without private-sector involvement, there will be no emergency response vaccines, and sacrifices taken by pharmaceutical companies during outbreak response are often underappreciated, as are the financial risks they take.

MERS kills 3 more in Saudi Arabia
Yesterday the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Health (MOH) announced two new fatal cases of MERS-CoV, and reported the death of a previously recorded patient.
An 89-year-old Saudi woman from Khamis Mushait died after presenting with symptoms of MERS-CoV (Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus). A 79-year-old Saudi man from Abha also died from the coronavirus. In both cases, the source of infection was listed as "primary," meaning it's unlikely either patient contracted the virus from another person.
The MOH also reported the death of an 80-year-old Saudi woman from Riyadh. She had a preexisting illness and was not a healthcare worker.
Saudi Arabia's MERS-CoV case count since 2012 has now reached 1,771, including 719 deaths. Eight patients are still being treated, according to the MOH.

Philippines exhumes body of two children in Dengvaxia investigation
Government officials from the Philippines said today they have exhumed the bodies of two children whose parents suspect became ill and then died after receiving Sanofi Pasteur's Dengvaxia vaccine, Reuters reported.
Officials are trying to determine if, after receiving Dengvaxia, the children died from subsequent severe dengue infections. Officials from the Public Attorney's Office (PAO) said one of the children's bodies showed signs of excessive bleeding, a noted symptom of fatal dengue infection.
The PAO said several parents have contacted them asking to exhume their children's bodies. So far, five pediatric deaths in the country show possible connections to the dengue vaccine.
The Philippines have stopped using Dengvaxia and sued manufacturer Sanofi Pasteur after the French pharmaceutical company said the vaccine should not be used in people who have not had a prior dengue infection. Those recipients have a risk of developing more severe infections after being vaccinated.

Brazil plans yellow fever vaccine campaign
In an attempt to prevent a wide scale yellow fever outbreak, Brazilian health officials announced earlier this week plans to inoculate 19.7 million Brazilians living in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Bahia states against the flavivirus.
Brazil said they would use fractional dosing to extend supplies of the yellow fever vaccine. Using fractioned doses offers immunity for up to 1 year. The campaign will begin shortly, and officials said it will last approximately 2 weeks.
"It is a precautionary measure, designed to offer vaccine coverage to people in areas where the virus has not yet circulated. The vaccines will be diluted, ensuring that quick coverage can be offered in a short period of time", said Brazilian Health Minister, Ricardo Barros, Folha de S.Paulo, a newspaper based in Brazil, reported.
Since July, there have been 11 confirmed yellow fever cases, including 4 deaths in Sao Paulo.

Cholera vaccine drive targets 1 million in Zambia's capital
The World Health Organization (WHO) and Zambia's government have launched a cholera vaccine drive to immunize residents of Lusaka, the country's capital, according to a WHO statement yesterday.
The campaign will use 2 million doses of cholera vaccine from the Gavi-funded stockpile, enough to immunize 1 million people.
Zambia's outbreak began in early October and has so far sickened 2,682 people, with Lusaka accounting for 96% of cases. So far, 63 deaths have been reported, 58 of them in the capital. Though sporadic cholera cases are often reported in Zambia during its 5-month rainy season, the burden this season has exceeded the country's average.
Nathan Bakyaita, MD, the WHO's country representative, said, "Zambia is experiencing one of the worst outbreaks of cholera in years. With this campaign, we can stop cholera in its tracks and prevent an even more devastating epidemic."
The WHO said it is working with the country's public health workers to address the underlying causes of the outbreak, which include a lack of clean water, sanitation, and hygiene. Plans are in the works to vaccinate another 1 million people in known hot spots across Zambia later this year.

The Real Airport
Broome is a highly-popular tourist destination in North-Western Australia. A tropical oasis straddling the red desert sands and crystal blue waters of the world-famous Cable Beach, it is a melting pot of culture and history, richly sewn through its lucrative pearling industry and exploits during World War Two.
The airport is a major regional hub for the Kimberley and North-East Pilbara regions so expect to see a busy mix of airline traffic (Qantas, Virgin Australia, Skippers, AirNorth and Silkair), domestic and international corporate jets, and regional GA and helicopter ops. The airport is a daily host to a wide variety of aircraft, including Boeing 737-800, Airbus A320, Fokker 100, 717, Embraer 170 and DHC8 airliners, S-92 and AS332 helicopters, G550s and even the occasional Il-76. Recently, it has seen the reintroduction of international flights to Singapore, development of a large heliport to cater for the booming offshore mining industry, and a new control tower.

As most anyone who has been following my blog over the years already knows I am a big fan and user of 3D printing. I am constantly working on some project that requires my design skills and knowledge of this subject so I thought I would pass on something that many users will find helpful if not at least interesting.
I recently upgraded my 3D printer setup and along with this have had to also change my 3D printing software to make the things I create. I am currently using the Ultimaker Cura 3D print slicing software. My opinion of this software has been improving over the past few weeks as I learn new things about using it with my Creality CR-10 S4 printer.
With this new setup I have come across something that from the start kind of confused and annoyed me while using the software.
Here a screen shot of a part that I am at this very moment 3D printing using Cura. In the lower right hand corner of this image is an estimate of how long it will take to 3D print the part that you see here. Cura tells me that it should take 5 hours 18 minutes to make it. In actuality the prints always take longer. I did some research online and found out that most 3D printers take the Gcode and loads up several lines at a time and then it gets sifted through the processor and finally the print is made. This process adds extra time to making the part so I was never sure when my part would actually finish.
With a little more testing on my part I have come up with the answer that I was looking for from the start. I made several different 3D printed parts and kept a log of the Cura time estimate and the actual time it took to make the parts. I then took the Cura time and converted it to minutes so 5 hours 18 minutes would convert to 318 minutes. Then I took the actual build time of the part which was 5 hours 54 minutes and converted it to just minutes......354 minutes. With these number I then divided 354 minutes by the 318 minute estimate. This gave me a number 1.114. This number I use now to get the correct time estimate for my 3D printed parts. I take the Cura time estimate for any 3D printed part and times it by 1.114 and it gives me the correct time it will take for my 3D printer to make the part. I have checked this several times now and it works or it's at least a lot closer than what Cura has been telling me. I will keep a log of 3D prints and times then get an average so I will have a ball park figure to work with in the future.
So if you would like to know the exact time or something at least a lot closer than the Cura time estimate do the math for your 3D printer to come up with your conversion number. Again mine being 1.114 may not be the same as what you will come up with but at least I know it works for me. It helps me know now what amount of time I will actually have to wait to get my part made. Hope this will help you as much as it now helps me.

Aging could be a natural procedure that cannot be stopped. Because the beginning of your time and energy man remains is search within the techniques for searching youthful. From lotions to salts, volcanic dirt to fasting, individuals have been attempting to stay as youthful to look at as extended as possible.

As we grow older, our change drop at considerable rates then when we add prolonged exposure to the sun over extended times cheap the outer skin loses moisture, there's a catastrophe of pre-mature aging. And this is what causes individuals unsightly wrinkles and "age" spots we are prone to get. Atmosphere, stress, illness are a couple of additional conditions that could cause us to appear old before our time, though a couple of tips plus a high quality items that contain ingredients agreeable to the type of skin, aging is unquestionably an enjoyable experience.

Cleansing, toning and moisturizing is the start of every skincare regimen that is good whenever you can have this habit while very youthful. Exfoliating your skin two to three occasions every week is great approach to taking a couple of years off and it also could possibly get eliminate old skin debris.
Combine water you drink daily. Toxins have to leave the body constantly and the easiest method to let them escape is applying water. As these toxins use waste, nutrients achieve our cells along with the cycle continues. Exercise not under half an hour four occasions every week. This will not enable you to appear youthful, it can benefit you are feeling youthful too. And then we can't discuss exercise without speaking about diet.

Rangoon Road is getting busy. With early entrance, Jewels to recent joiners such as Woodshed, La'Coffee, Old Hen and now The Cold Pantry, joining the cafe scene there offering Froyo.
It is extremely easy to locate The Cold Pantry, especially for those who know Jewels. It is on Jewels left. [The Cold Pantry has shifted to 88 Rangoon Road]
The Cold Pantry features the Frozen Yogurt. It has three creation on its regular menu and a new creation regularly.
I like the ambience, the design of The Cold Pantry very much. Though it is simple but with the little cushy pillow added and some accessories placed throughout the cafe, it makes the cafe very cosy, sweet and good for hanging out.
On the menu, I was attracted to both the Thai Milk Tea Flavour Yogurt (a new creation) and the Moive Date (a savoury yogurt on its regular menu). I tried the Thai Milk Tea Yogurt on my first visit, will try the Moive Date on my next visit. Though I really should have tried both. Lol.
The Thai Milk Tea was lightly scented. The natural yogurt taste was stronger. There are honey crunch on the top of the yougurt which are made in-house. There were mixture of with sesame and pure honey crunch. The honey crunch tasted similar to the honey comb in the Cadbury Crunchie Chocolate. The sesame one gave a little savoury flavour to the creation. At the bottom of the creation, there are cornflakes and Nata De Coco.
On another visit, I tried the savoury Froyo, the Movie Date. As the name suggested, how could popcorn, Nachos and Cheese be missing? On the top, Caramel Popcorn is added and chocolate sauce is drizzled. The popcorn are made in-house. Plain Natural Yogurt is used in this creation. There are some banana slices around the brim of the cups. At the bottom layer, you will find some Nachos and Cheese. This creation is surprisingly delish. If you like stuff that are salty and sweet, you would probably like this. A sudden thought, what about having Salted Caramel Popcorn or maybe drizzle with Salted Caramel Sauce instead of Chocolate?
The Cold Pantry, a sweet & cosy Froyo cafe has very warm, thoughtful and friendly service. And the service crew, I think she might be the owner too, who served me on both visit, remembered me, she has very good memory. I enjoyed the service and the Froyo. I will be back real soon.

Every other brand nowadays is coming up with a sheet mask range of their own. Because of that, we are having umpteen choices available at present. I am biased towards The Face Shop 😛 , probably because they have a huge range plus, I like the results they deliver to me. I love hoarding sheet masks particularly, thus there's always a pile lying in my stash. Today's review is on The Face Shop Red Ginseng Face Mask, here's how it fared 😊 –
Price- INR 100/-
About- A mask sheet that is drenched with emulsified moisturizing serum and provides skin with a boost of energy and vitality. Enriched with red ginseng extracts, the all new Real Nature Red Ginseng Face Mask by Face Shop is here to transform your skin! The rich extracts with revitalizing properties, even tones complexion, removes dead skin cells and provides energy to the skin.
Packaging- The Face Shop Red Ginseng Sheet Mask is a single-use mask, the mask sheet is light brown in color. It is drenched in serum and comes inside an easy-to-tear pack. It's something that's easy to carry while you're travelling.
My Experience- I do all my sheet masks before sleeping generally so that I get to see the real results in the morning. So, before applying this sheet mask I made sure my face was cleansed well so that it can penetrate well into the skin. You can apply it by unfolding it carefully and adjust it on your face, it's designed in a way it fits the facial curves perfectly. It smells nice to me. I Kept in on for some 15 minutes, and then removed it. There was excess serum in the pack, I applied it on my face. In the morning I could clearly feel a well moisturized face with a shiny layer. In brief, Loved it! 🙂 This mask totally managed to bring life to my face.
As far as even tone claim is concerned, I don't think any product can do that in one application. Also, guys please don't keep your sheet mask on for more than 15 minutes even when it feels slightly wet as it dries up till then and starts absorbing the serum back from the skin.
Things I like about it-
- Priced affordably
- Smells nice
- Easy to apply
- Nourishes skin
- Skin appears healthy
- Delivers shine to skin
Things I dislike about it-
- There's no such thing
Ratings- 4.5/5
Wrapping it up- To summarize, The Face Shop Red Ginseng sheet mask is good for quick results. Their masks are liked by all because they are economic, available in several variants, and can be bought online easily. You should definitely pick them up! 🙂

Following the horrific attack on those in the Muslim community gathered for prayer on Friday at the Christchurch NZ mosque, a vigil was organized by a young Victorian for that same afternoon. It was a poignant reminder of our essential unity, as diverse people gathered together to light candles, speak out, and comfort each other. Its beauty was in strong contrast to the ugliness of the event that inspired it.
A letter from VMS was sent to the Masjid Al-Iman on Quadra St. and the Ismaili Jamatkhana in Esquimalt, on behalf of all our faith communities, expressing sympathy and solidarity.
The Victoria Multifaith Society would also like to extend warm greetings to the Ismaili Muslim community and the Bahá'í community, who are soon celebrating Navroz / Naw-Ruz, on 21 March, the first day of Spring. This marks the beginning of the new year 1398 and 176 in those respective calendars.
May we all reach out to one another and work together to make it a peaceful and inclusive new year.

Card-making round robin
A card-making round robin is where you get a group of card-makers together with a ton (technical term) of paper scraps and supplies. Each person works on a card for five minutes. (I'd suggest using a timer because the five minutes will fly by.) Once the buzzer sounds, you pass your unfinished card to the next person at the table. It works well if each crafter uses a mat to keep all their supplies together when passing them off. Each crafter passes their work until everyone has a new card to work on. You set the timer again for five minutes and continue on the next card. You keep setting the timer and passing the unfinished card until you get your original card back (or as many times as you want).
It's so much fun!
These are the cards we made last Saturday while doing round robins. One of the card-makers is only nine years old, she had a blast and has since done one with a group of her friends. Each one of the children made a birthday card.

Fourteen protesters were in court this week facing a misdemeanor charge and $70,000 in restitution for shutting down BART service on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, as part of the national movement opposing police killings of unarmed African Americans.
As Black Friday 14 activists sat in the courtroom Wednesday morning, several hundred supporters rallied outside the courthouse demanding that District Attorney Nancy O'Malley drop the call for restitution and the trespassing charge.
The activists are challenging the constitutionality of California Penal Code 369i, which prohibits conduct that interferes with transit operations. They and their attorneys are arguing that the law "criminalizes the most innocent behavior" within a BART station and gives police "unfettered discretion to impose charges on disfavored transit users."
Oakland Civil rights lawyer Walter Riley, who represents the protesters, presented this argument to the judge. If the judge agrees with the motion, the case would be dismissed.
The motion calls for the court "to dismiss this case because the statute itself is being challenged for being unconstitutional," said Riley outside the Alameda County courthouse on Washington Street in Oakland.
The motion cites the case of Morse v. BART (Feb. 11, 2014) in which a court found: "The lack of a specific intent requirement coupled with [BART] defendants' interpretation of Section 369i would appear to make much of the innocent conduct one witnesses at a public transit station a crime under the Penal Code."
Judge Yolanda Northridge is expected to make a written ruling soon. She did not refer to the $70,000 restitution fee.
However, Alameda County Assistant District Attorney Mike Nieto read a statement on Wednesday representing the District Attorney's position on restitution:
"Any time a crime victim suffers a loss, the offender must be ordered to pay restitution for that loss. A victim's right to a criminal restitution order stems from Article I, Section 28 B of the California Constitution.
"Restitution orders are to be imposed for the full amount of the victims economic loss. These economic losses must be actual losses and not based upon speculation. We have not received any evidence or other supporting documentation for actual economic losses in these cases."
If the judge denies their motion, the protesters are scheduled to go back to court on March 18. They are asking for community members to support the demand for the charge and restitution to be dropped.

FUN MONDAY - Christmas tree decoration
I am your host today. As Christmas is just behind us, and New Year ahead, I thought I make it short and easy, and here is my proposition :
Take a picture of one Christmas ornament which you love the most, explain why, and if you don't have any explanations it's also OK. For those who haven't celebrated Christmas, just take a picture of something else you love as decoration.
If you are not at home, just show us the ornament or decoration you like the most at your hosts place.
We didn't spend Christmas at home and therefore had a real little Christmas tree for which I had to buy also little ornaments. The once I had were far too big.
our mini tree
and one of these little angels, which I found so cute. They are together with golden lttle balls and hearts
and the big Christmas tree our son had put up at his inlaws place where we celebrated all together
and there I loved the most the illuminated icicles.
The host for next week January 4 is Mariposa who kindly will devote herself again !

One-to-one discussion: DVS General Manager Boecking meets Thai Minister of LabourCommercial & Investment Banking Thursday, April 25th, 2019
On the occasion of the 8th Asia-Pacific IIW International Congress in Bangkok/Thailand on March 20 and 21, Dr.-Ing. Roland Boecking, General Manager of DVS – German Welding Society, met the Thai Minister of Labour, H.E. Police General Adul Sangsingkeo, for a one-to-one discussion. The subject was DVS–s welding technology training system.
Dr. Boecking explained to Sangsingkeo the various possibilities of the welding technology training at the around 320 DVS-authorised educational establishments in Germany and DVS–s training activities worldwide. The Thai Minister of Labour showed great interest in the different training paths and the high-quality standards. He endorsed the already existing cooperation between DVS and the Welding Institute of Thailand (WIT).
After the discussion with Sangsingkeo, the DVS General Manager met up with Assoc. Professor Dr. h. c. Banleng Sornil from WIT and the King Mongkut–s University of Technology North Bangkok (KMUTNB). They signed the Memorandum of Understanding once again and thus reaffirmed the good collaboration between both countries. The cooperation contract relates to the joint refinement of welding technology and the training according to DVS standards.
Furthermore, Dr. Boecking was able to hold several significant discussions with representatives from the economy and from international associations. For example, he talked about the successful DVS-IIW Young Professionals project with Douglas Luciani, President of the International Institute of Welding (IIW). This project for the promotion of youngsters is regarded as pioneering in the international welding society and is a role model for the other IIW member countries. Dr. Boecking also exchanged ideas about the subject of the promotion of youngsters with Dr. Jochen Amrehn, Vice-President of the Nanjing Tech University Pujiang Institute. DVS is thinking about participating in this year–s Summer School in Nanjing. Prospective scientists and engineers will be able to introduce their research papers there.
With his lecture about the value added by welding technology in Europe and with the introduction of DVS–s training concept at the Asia-Pacific IIW International Congress, Dr. Boecking was finally able to take up the questions of the various participants in the discussions.

Today I feel organized and on the ball.
I didn't sleep extremely well, but I slept well enough. I woke up a little early, but still, I feel okay physically. I feel rested enough.
And there are things that need to be done. Probably more things than I can get done in one day, but they're on a list and the list is easily prioritized so the things that don't get done I hope will be ones that are okay to let slide for a day or two.
And I'm on the front porch …
I'm sitting in a padded chair and I'm writing, 'cause that's on the list. I'm relaxed and the words are flowing fairly easily.
The day is sweet and calm and I'm enjoying the passion of contentment that seems to have enveloped me on this warm Autumn day.
Be right back …
Yeah, just checking the laundry. I got this.
Laundry is simple, you put it in, you check it in a little while and if it's ready to move to the dryer you do that and put the next load in.
Sometimes I even get it folded, but if I don't, I have no problem wearing it fresh out of the basket. I sometimes dream about what I would do with the space if I just got rid of my dresser.
When I'm done writing …
I'm making porridge for the rest of the week and loading tools for this afternoon's work. This afternoon I'll taking out the last of the dock at the cottage in preparation for winter time.
I told you, I've got this. It's all on a list, all sorted.
As well, this morning, once the writing is done and the tools are loaded and while I'm doing the laundry, I'm going to work in picking up a new freezer that's waiting at the warehouse for me. Also, there's some wall mount drawers for the office and the garage
Somewhere in there …
Lunch. I'm not sure what I'm having for lunch, but I'm not worried about it. This weekend just past here in Canada was Thanksgiving weekend, and wow do I have leftovers.
Of course, to take the dock out at the cottage I need to put in an hour and a half of driving, 40 minutes each way, but that will give me time to listen to the radio or maybe some new tunes on one of the CDs I have in the truck.
So yeah,
Today I feel organized.
I'm not sure what's wrong, I'm pretty worried about the whole thing and I'm white knuckling it all the way, waiting for the fit to hit the shan.
Feeling organized? That's just wrong. I have ADHD. This is always when things go horribly wrong.

I began my personal yoga journey several years ago with the practice of hatha yoga and continue to explore and experiment with different styles. In a relatively short time, yoga became, and still is my passion. I am passionate about yoga and the positive effects it has on the body and mind. Yoga, with its balance of physical and spiritual practice encompasses all the components of the holistic discipline I was seeking.
I completed my 200hr Yoga teacher training in 2018 with Yoga Health Mandala in Goa, India, and am accredited with the Independent Yoga Network.
Presently my teaching focus is primarily on the practice of Hatha. I incorporate a fluid dance of movement and breath through the asanas. Moving through your flow you will develop strength, mobility, and awareness. For me, yoga is a lifelong experiential journey, both in and out of the classroom.
I look forward to sharing this wonderful practice with you.

Held in Buenos Aires, the bilateral workshop aimed at bringing closer the Argentine and the British scientific communities and government agencies in order to find potential lines of work.
As part of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Social Development and Health of Argentina and the el Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) of the UK, the workshop "Antimicrobial resistance in the Environment" took place in Buenos Aires.
The activity was organized by the Food Safety Network of the National Scientific and Technical Research Council (CONICET) through the International Cooperation Office of the Council. The other institutions that participated in the organization were: the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and the Natural Environment Reseach Council (NERC) under the auspices of DHSC.
The workshop was at the Argentine Museum of Natural Sciences 'Bernardino Rivadavia' (MACN-CONICET) on the 10th and 13th of September. The representatives who participated in the meeting belong to the above mentioned foreign institutions, CONICET, the Administración Nacional de Laboratorios e Institutos de Salud (ANLIS) "Dr. Carlos G. Malbrán", the Servicio Nacional de Sanidad y Calidad Agroalimentaria (SENASA),the Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA), the Centro de Investigación y Asistencia Técnica a la Industria (CIATI) – Asociación Civil and some Argentine universities.
The aim of the workshop was to bring closer both scientific communities and government institutions to search for potential lines of joint work on antimicrobial resistance and its effects on the environment. The research would be focused on cattle, poultry and swine production as a prelude to the next call for cooperation projects on the subject.
The workshop started with a series of lectures by authorities and leaders from both countries and speed networking sessions between all the participants. After the meeting, there were tours to the establishments of bovine, poultry and swine production of the province of Buenos Aires in Lobos, Roque Pérez, Capitán Sarmiento and Capilla del Señor. Finally, there was a debate in which the researchers shared their lines of work and established their collaboration relationships.

Academic experience
I organised my electives to be studied in the semester that I go on exchange, therefore giving myself a lot of options to choose in the host university. What I enjoyed the most from studying under a different academic system was the smaller tutorials (10-15 people in a tutorial). One of the challenges that I experienced was navigating a new online learning platform e.g. I experienced difficulty in finding out where to sign up for classes. UQ's pass or fail requirement for courses meant exchange students would not have to worry too much about the grades.
Personal experience
The most rewarding things that I have gained from the exchange were the friendships that I developed with others, both local and non-local students; the unforgettable memories that we shared; and the trips that we went on, all around Hong Kong and even overseas as well. The tourist attractions, the places known only to the locals, the food and the culture are just some of the amazing things I got to experience. Living in Hong Kong for a period of time and befriending locals, allowed me to easily pick up on the basic common phrases in Cantonese and some of the unique expressions which give some insight into their culture.
I lived on-campus at Starr hall. What I enjoyed most about my accommodation were the hall events e.g. high table dinners, concerts and sports competitions that really encouraged hall residents to get to know each other and support their friends. Living in a hall creates good opportunities to make friends with local and non-local students and learn more about their culture. The close proximity (5-minute walk) between my hall and HKU was a really good bonus! The nearby MTR station was very convenient and opened till late. I strongly recommend future exchange students to apply for on-campus accommodation to really immerse in the local culture and make more friends.
Rent, food, transport and entertainment were generally cheaper in Hong Kong compared to Australia. There were also a lot of food options on campus. However, more budget should be allocated to travel such as overseas trips because students will make more friends and will likely go on unplanned trips with them.
Professional development and employability
Being in a different country and meeting people who have different cultures and backgrounds, helped me develop my sense of awareness for global issues.
The highlight of my experience was the dim sum that my friends and I ate at 3 am and the night adventures.
Top tips
- Pack light as you will probably buy a lot of things in Hong Kong
- Apply for Student Octopus card from your faculty at your host university as soon as possible because it can be used on transportation and for purchasing things in many shops
- Attend as many events as possible that are on offer at HKU e.g. weeks of welcome, cultural nights, day trip to interesting places, and movie/documentary screenings
- Definitely travel!

Dubbo North stage 2 Students' overnight excursion to Trangie
Last week 55 excited Stage 2 students, along with 98 members of staff, ventured to Trangie to enjoy the first of 2 overnight excursions for the year.
Students travelled to Trangie by coach and visited Miss Brabrook's family's farm, sang some songs at the retirement villas, enjoyed a bonfire, some poetry and a camp oven dinner and then slept in the school hall.
The next day students visited the Auscott Cotton Gin for a guided tour and then learnt about local aboriginal culture at the Trangie Aboriginal Cultural Centre.
After a barbecue lunch students travelled back to Dubbo where they were greeted by parents and carers.
A great time was had by all and a huge thank you to the staff for organising this excursion for the students to enjoy.

His name is not mentioned in the episode, but specified in the credits.
The puppet is a recycled version of an unnamed purple monster that appeared in The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island. The puppet was also seen in the audience in Muppets Tonight.

It sounds great, I can't wait, although we don't get in until the fall.
It sounds great, I can't wait, although we don't get in until the fall.
I'm watching it right now, it's great!
Such a shame that I wouldn't know by now your revelations

Yup, me too. Noticed a few STARGATE guest stars, DOC guest stars, but had more fun just watching the plot. It repeats later tonight (er, tomorrow morning) for those who missed it at the 9-11pm run.Originally Posted by yaaayoubetcha
Is it just me or isplayed by the same guy as Colonel Chekov?Spoiler:the military guy who took over Eureka
Such a shame that I wouldn't know by now your revelations
Cut me in, I don't wanna live without your revelations.-Audioslave
There seems to be a lot of Stargate people are going to show up on the show.
I HATED the first hour, that was terrible. The second was much better and the ending was fun.
The first hour had to establish characters, place, etc. It was something different and I liked it. I'll be back next week.
Let's see...
Drey'auc was the DOD chick
Nereus (or Nero Wolfe) was the Sherrif
Chekov was the head soldier dude
Fish from Ally McBeal was King (not SG, but it explains why I thought I knew him)
Chloe (Felger's assistant) was Doris Gilmer
Lt. Banks (from Avalon) played one of the soldiers
I'm sure there will be TONS of familiar faces as the season progresses. It IS filmed in Vancouver, after all.
I loved the pilot. Laughed out loud numerous times. Can't wait to see how this show develops. It's flat-out FUN!
That's what I thought too.Originally Posted by full.infinity
BTW, is Darren going to hook us up with a section for Eureka or is that not going to happen?
The reason you should vote Republican in 2010.
This series has a lot of potential, some of the conversation between Carter and his daughter seemed a bit cliche earlier on, but by the end, it was very good. I'm definitly going to keep watching the show, especially if the guy who played Chekov comes back.
My new favorite quote:
"Fly Lucius, fly"
My old favorite:
"It's...it's like trying to do something...that's impossible..."
-Dr. Lee
Well it was definately better than watching the reality shows on network TV.
All in all I found it a fun show. Not going to make my TIVO list but I will watch when I'm home on Tuesday nights.
The guy's name is JACK CARTER... if that doesn't reference Stargate I don't know what does... I'm suprised there isn't a Samantha O'neill...
BTW, I thought the show was terrible....
I rather enjoyed the premiere. I agree, the first hour or so was kind of so-so. But the second half was much better IMO. I'll definitely be back next week.
MS - "Boy, wow that's a great question!"
"Anyone know what SENTIENT means???"
Sunday is my favorite day for two reasons - Football and The Walking Dead
Heh, I didn't even pickup on that. Nice... I really enjoyed this show, it's scifi mixed with a bit of fun.Originally Posted by TheBigBlueBox
I enjoyed the premier... right up till the point where I lost power and missed 15 mins of the show. Fortunately, there was some show left to watch. Jack makes me laugh. Seems like the only thing he's good at is his job. His parenting skills are very questionable.
There were a few things here and there I wasn't too fond of, namely Taggert who somehow struck me as a bit cliched and she-rambo, Jo.
"You know what would make a good story? Something about a clown who makes people happy, but inside he's real sad. Also, he has severe diarrhea." - Jack Handy
Why did Carter and his daughter pass themselves at the beginning? That is bugging me.

I think it was just mean't to be a freak event result of time being messed up. I don't know why they'd be driving in the opposite direction though.
"You know what would make a good story? Something about a clown who makes people happy, but inside he's real sad. Also, he has severe diarrhea." - Jack Handy
With the girl smiling and waving. Maybe just a freak event to grab interest at the beginning. But it still bugs me that it wasn't brought up. Or at least addressed after the fact since the daughter had mentioned it several times. Just a little "That was why........"Originally Posted by MarshAngel
I did enjoy it and will watch next week.
~ ~ ~mala\suekay sig ~ ~ ~ *Thanks to Mala50 for any caps I post & for her "crankies"*
I thought that they passed themselves, the people on the way out of town were from the future, kind of like they go into the town and they both hate each other and then when they leave the town both of them are well adjusted and love each other again. Least the girl on the way out looked normal in the brief glance we had, i.e. no strange hair or nose ring.
I enjoyed the show, think it has real potential but I don't understand why they aren't putting it on friday nights after the gates just to build an audience. Of course it is good to see Sci-fi busting out on another night, only so many B grade movies they can play. Only thing I really didn't like was the daughter, seems like the writters will use her as a plot device to give her dad something.
I think it'll be on my regular tuesday viewing for a while.
Rather liked it.
I always enjoy Fish (the dude from Ally McBeal). He does great voice.
Liked the resolution, but agree with most that some of the characters need a bit of work.

How To Walk Up To Girls And Begin The Conversation
Dean | Apr 25, 2018 | Comments 0
How To Walk Up To Girls And Begin The Conversation
Attracting and approaching women is a tough thing to do. You have to gather up the confidence to walk up to a woman and introduce yourself, and then get her phone number. If the thought of randomly approaching women and striking up conversations makes you feel anxious, I understand that this process can be hard at first, and I've been there myself.
But the bottom line is, you've got to learn how to approach women if you're going to expand your social life and elevate your dating life. I know that most guys are intimidated by the thought of approaching women, especially in public places. . If this is how you feel, then you should change your ways so that you can start having the success that you desire.
Practicing in the mirror, and performing some mental exercises, is one way to build up your confidence with approaching women. Talking to yourself in the mirror will allow you to see how you look and to build up the confidence you need to approach someone. If you can first be comfortable with yourself, then you will more than likely be comfortable with talking with a woman too.
I'm sure you've heard of men approaching women and seducing them instantly. I don't recommend trying this as this is the fastest way to get a drink thrown into your face. But when you do approach a woman, you need to have no fear of rejection. Not being intimated of rejection is a skill that you need to develop, and you can begin by walking up to women and asking them a simple question.
For instance, you should practice walking up to women and asking them a genuine question. Your question could be if they know what time it is or if they know where the nearest McDonalds is. This will help you to get into the habit of naturally approaching women so when the time comes to ask a woman for her phone number, it won't be as hard to do.
If you can learn how not to be afraid of rejection, then you increase your chances of having success with women by a long shot. When practicing what I suggested above, you should only practice walking up to beautiful women. Ask a woman where the nearest bank is or where the nearest grocery store is. You'd be amazed at the responses and some of these women will even start up conversations with you!
Techniques on How to Approach a Girl You Like
Do you want to know how to approach a girl you like without being paralyzed with fear? For the inexperienced, this can be a daunting feat but when you understand the basics, it becomes easier soon thereafter. These tactics I am sharing with you were created in response to how women behave, think and react to situations.
How to Approach a Girl You Like Tip #1: Display Social Value
If you want to secure your chance of talking to a girl, make sure you do this first step. You show off your personality and social clout first so you can build up massive amounts of attraction. To put it simply, you have to display traits that attract women. You can do this by simply making sure that you group is enjoying your presence; greet bartenders and waitresses you know; make an effort to talk to people you know in the room.
How to Approach a Girl You Like Tip #2: Don't Sound and Appear Too Interested
If you think that by being that nice guy and showering a girl with too much attention, you're turning her on, you've been misinformed. This is what players do that's why they always bring home the bacon. I didn't say that you're going to be a jerk. Just give her an impression that you want to chat with her but if she's not digging it, you're cool with it. As long as you've done tip #1 well, she knows that if she rejects you, it's going to be her loss. There are a lot of other girls who would be more than willing to give you their attention. So in this game, you make yourself the prize.
One way of doing this is by stating beforehand that you're not going to take too much of her time. Here's an example:
"Hey, I see that you're having fun with your friends but I'm not staying long. I saw you a few minutes ago and I think you look gorgeous. I just thought I'd drop by and say Hi".
She will smile and thank you for the compliment, do as you said and leave afterwhich.
How to Approach a Girl You Like Tip #3: Make Use of Neutral or Flirt Openers
Now for some specific approaches and openers…
Neutral openers are the opposite of flirt openers. With neutral openers, you have to make an observation about the girl and make statements or questions related to what you've observed.
It tells the girl that you not only appreciate her but you're also willing to listen to what she has to say. The objective is to make her talk more. Women love it when guys see them as someone of value rather than someone they can sleep with. Don't get me wrong, for some this might be their goal but the point is, you don't make it obvious. Otherwise, she'll just ignore you just like that. Call it ritual if you want but women warm up to these tactics and these are your tickets to her bed or her heart, for the romantics.
On the other hand, flirt openers must be used once you're sure of your game. If the girl is head over heels for you, you won't have a problem using flirt openers. When you know how to approach a girl you like using flirt openers, you've reached that macking rock star status.
