UNITED NATIONS — The U.N. Security Council voted unanimously on Saturday to impose punishing sanctions on North Korea including ship searches for banned weapons, calling Pyongyang's claimed nuclear test "a clear threat to international peace and security."
North Korea immediately rejected the resolution, and its U.N. ambassador walked out of the council chamber after accusing its members of a "gangster-like" action which neglects the nuclear threat posed by the United States.
The U.S.-sponsored resolution demands that the reclusive communist nation abandon its nuclear weapons program, and orders all countries to prevent North Korea from importing or exporting any material for weapons of mass destruction or ballistic missiles. It orders nations to freeze assets of people or businesses connected to these programs, and ban the individuals from traveling.
The resolution also calls on all countries to inspect cargo leaving and arriving in North Korea to prevent any illegal trafficking in unconventional weapons or ballistic missiles. The final draft was softened from language saying the council "decides" — which is a stronger authorization.
'One of the gravest threats'
U.S. Ambassador John Bolton said North Korea's proclaimed test "poses one of the gravest threats to international peace and security that this council has ever had to confront."
"Today, we are sending a strong and clear message to North Korea and other would be proliferators that there will be serious repercussions in continuing to pursue weapons of mass destruction," he said, in what appeared to be a clear warning to Iran whose nuclear ambitions come before the Security Council again next week.
North Korea's U.N. Ambassador Pak Gil Yon countered by blaming the United States for forcing the country to conduct a test because of its "nuclear threat, sanctions and pressure."
"The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is ready for talks, dialogue and confrontation," Ambassador Pak Gil Yon said. "If the United States increases pressure upon the Democratic People's Republic of Korea persistently, the DPRK will continue to take physical countermeasures considering it as a declaration of war."
North Korea has said it could conduct a second nuclear test in response to tough sanctions.
The vote came after the United States, Britain and France overcame last-minute differences with Russia and China during what the Russian ambassador called "tense negotiations."
Video: Korean conundrum China's U.N. Ambassador Wang Guangya said afterward that the provision allowing the boarding of ships to inspect cargo was still unacceptable to Beijing and it would not carry out inspections. Nonetheless, Wang hailed what he called a "watered-down" resolution.
He told reporters that he did not consider the North Korean ambassador's response the official reply from Pyongyang, which he awaits. "The important thing is not what they say here," Wang said.
The overriding issue, he said, is "how we work together for peace and security in the region."
The resolution demands North Korea eliminate all its nuclear weapons but expressly rules out military action against the country, a demand by the Russians and Chinese. U.S. Ambassador John Bolton warned Pyongyang, however, that if it continues pursuing nuclear weapons, the United States would seek further measures.
The Security Council condemned the nuclear test that North Korea said it conducted on Oct 9. It demanded that North Korea immediately return to six-party talks aimed at persuading Pyongyang to dismantle its weapons program without precondition.
It imposed sanctions for the North's "flagrant disregard" of the council's appeal not to detonate a nuclear device and demanded that North Korea "not conduct any further nuclear test or launch of a ballistic missile."
The resolution bans the import or export of material and equipment that could be used to make nuclear weapons or ballistic missiles. It orders all countries to freeze the assets and ban travel for anyone engaged in supporting North Korea's weapons programs.
"This action by the United Nations, which was swift and tough, says that we are united in our determination to see to it that the Korean Peninsula is nuclear-weapons free," President Bush said.
In a measure aimed at North Korea's tiny elite, the resolution bans the sale of luxury goods to the country. Kim is known for his love of cognac and lobster and collection of thousands of bottles of vintage French wine.
To meet Russian and Chinese concerns, the Americans eliminated a complete ban on the sale of conventional weapons. Instead, the resolution limits the embargo to major hardware such as tanks, warships, combat aircraft and missiles.
Russia's U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said Moscow got what it wanted — a strong resolution but one that is also aimed at "prevention of a further escalation of tension."
Response to U.S. threat
North Korea's Pak told the Security Council that the nuclear test was not inconsistent with the country's goal of a denuclearized Korean Peninsula.
"The DPRK clarified more than once that it would feel no need to possess even a single nuke when it is no longer exposed to the United States' threat, after it has dropped its hostile policy to the DPRK and confidence has been built between the two countries," he said.
Bolton said North Korea's claimed test "unquestionably poses one of the gravest threats to international peace and security that this council has ever had to confront."
Following Pak's speech, Bolton took the floor again saying "I'm not going to waste any our time responding." But he noted that North Korea had done Saturday exactly what it did in July after the council adopted limited sanctions for its ballistic missile tests — immediately reject the resolution and walk out.
"It is the contemporary equivalent of Nikita Khrushchev pounding his shoe on the desk," Bolton said, referring to the Soviet leader's legendary act of protest at the U.N. General Assembly in 1960.
Bolton told reporters afterward that the next step is to start work on implementing the resolution.
"Hopefully on saner reflections perhaps they'll begin to accept that if they don't change course, the only future for them is continued isolation," he said. The nuclear-armed planet
On Friday, U.S. officials said an air sampling after North Korea's claimed nuclear test detected radioactive debris consistent with an atomic explosion. However, the Bush administration and congressional officials said no final determination had been made about the nature of Monday's mystery-shrouded blast.
The U.S. and other nations trying to persuade the North to give up its atomic program continued a flurry of high-level diplomatic visits, including a trip to Asia by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice meant to present a unified front to North Korea.
The resolution invokes Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, which the U.S. views as a necessary because it makes economic and diplomatic sanctions mandatory.
China and Russia normally object to the Chapter 7 provision because it carries the possibility of military enforcement. The Bush administration used the same provision to justify its invasion of Iraq, and Moscow and Beijing worry the U.S. might do the same eventually with North Korea — even though Bush has said the U.S. has no plans to attack.
But in a compromise also used in July to unanimously vote on a resolution condemning North Korean missile launches, the text added mention of Article 41 of the chapter, which permits only "means not involving the use of military force."
A Russian nuclear envoy who visited North Korea said Saturday he pressed the North to return to six-nation nuclear disarmament talks. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Alexeyev said he had a "very useful" meeting Friday with Kim Gye Gwan, the North's nuclear negotiator, but did not say how Kim responded.
Pyongyang has boycotted the six-nation talks for the past 13 months to protest financial measures imposed by Washington for alleged counterfeiting and money-laundering.

NetDiligence® Introduces Targeted Cost Calculators and a Cloud Risk Reference Guide
NetDiligence®, a leading cyber risk assessment and data breach services company, announced today it has released three proprietary new insurance risk manager and broker-focused tools for its eRisk Hub® portal. The new tools enable eRisk Hub users to evaluate specific areas of cyber risk: post-breach crisis communications / public relations; loss of revenue due to business interruption (e.g., a DDoS attack); and contractual and operational risks associated with cloud computing.
The Public Relations Cost Calculator—developed in partnership with Zing, a New York-based public relations firm—allows Hub users to model the potential costs of crisis communications counsel and services related to the disclosure of sensitive or protected information. This tool also helps educate users about the cost drivers of post-breach public relations.
The Business Interruption Cost Calculator was developed exclusively by NetDiligence®. This tool allows Hub users to estimate a first party loss due to a temporary outage in a business' online storefront or computer network. Loss cost factors featured in this tool include the number of hours down, the selling season, percentage of transactions lost, and insurance deductibles.
The Cloud Risk Considerations tool—developed in partnership with law firm Baker & Hostetler LLP—provides Hub users with key criteria to consider when negotiating a contract with a Cloud or SaaS provider. The tool provides guidance on an extensive array of legal and contract considerations, including Scope of Services, Data Hosting & Storage, Maintenance, Subcontractors, Confidentiality/Proprietary Information, General & Electronic Security, and Security Breaches (among other topics). Additionally, there is an extensive section specifically for healthcare providers that must comply with HIPAA/HITECH standards.
These proprietary new tools are available exclusively to eRisk Hub licensors and users. For more information, contact Mark Greisiger at 610-525-6383 or email@example.com.

"Ground breaking (and simple) web creation.
Wow. What's the most expensive website on the Internet? Facebook? Twitter? Because when you finish this course you will have hand-coded a webpage that looks and functions JUST like the most impressive and intuitive websites that once took programmers thousands of hours to code. Bootstrap 3 is RIDICULOUSLY straight-forward.
These videos are well created, concise, fast-paced, easy to follow, and just funny enough to keep you chuckling as you're slamming out lines of code. I've taken 3 courses from this instructor. Whenever I have questions he is right there with a simple solution or a helpful suggestion to keep me going forward with the course work.
If you haven't done any coding before (or need to get brushed up on HTML) this guy's HTML course is a bit slower and more in depth as to how the entry level code works. This Bootstrap course assumes that you're well-versed in HTML and runs with it. My only complaint is that I now have to go back and re-do ALL my websites… because this course info is just too good to pass up. 😉

Really poor tutorial, none of the code is functioning.
the navbar collapse output on my browser isn't working even though I followed code-for-code pls help
Hi there. If anyone could please tell me how to add 11 or 12 elements in navbar like home , about us etc along with logo. When I add 8th element on right side after putting logo in navbar , the nav elements go down and it does not remain align with logo. How to fix that in bootstrap. Thanks
Thank you very much for this video !!
just wanted to say big thank You! You are a great teacher :)))))
My problem with not showing navbar was solved by changing navbar-collapse in div tag to nav-collapse just like you can see in this video and in final project)
Why is that Bootstrap seems like you just have to memorize a bunch of arbitrary random things?!
Brother you change my life by your videos! Thank you very much!
When I change the color of the navbar, only the parts with text have a background color. So there is a gap in the middle of the navbar. What did I do wrong?
hyy i am a big fan of you bro…i saw ur lectures at udemy….now i am trying to learn through your lectures…u r the best…..
Man!!! I finally figured out what I did wrong XD. Next time I'm gonna use the word search to make sure I've spelt things correctly. I checked glyphicon so many times and I thought it was spelt right 8|
what is the point of the tutorial if you don't explain the code?
where is the css????
i do have a question..? can we insert slide bar to Full screen overlay, if so please help me on that..
Hey Brad, i learnt a lot from you, first i would like to thank you on that..
Im using bootsrap 3.3.7 , if i put class="navbar-brand" first before the <img src it doesn't do anything the image/logo doesn't fit in the navbar. however , after doing it like this  <img src="sample.jpg" alt="sample" class="navbar-brand" the logo fits inside the nav bar. i dont know whats the problem.
and also this
 is not working another class "navbar-default " or
"navbar-inverse" needs to be added.
For some reason my serach icon stays below the search field…Any ideas what i need to do?
beautiful, is there any way of getting the navbar value from the DB instead hard codding
Does the version of Bootstrap matter? Ive tried following these tutuorials with another version of bootstrap (properly linked) but the navbar just wont show. Then when I used the bootstrap given in the Course Files it suddenly worked. Can anyone clarify this?
I'm attempting to have different heights for my navbar based on the width of the navbar. (60px for min-width 768, 90px for min-width 992, and 120px for minwidth 1200)
How would you approach that?

I'm totally going to hell…
There is a sweet couple who just blessed their first baby in our ward recently. I don't know them personally, I just know them from smiling at them at church and their testimonies. The Mom in this couple bore her testimony on the day their baby was blessed and said "In the last 5 weeks, we've learned that the only thing harder than trying to bring this baby into the world (note: she'd apparently had a hard pregnancy) is trying to raise him."
I sniggered- I mean- how much "raising" does a 5 wk. old need? They don't sass, hit you, refuse to eat, or act like a "mean girl" to sweet other little girls. So all I can say to you, sweet new, naive parents is: just you wait!
We ARE the poor kids!
We've been donating a lot of things lately in our house and trying to teach our three year old Princess about sharing our blessings with others.
First, we donated food to the annual post office food drive (you know, the one where you put your food out in a bag by the mailbox and the mailman takes it?). We let Princess help pick the food to donate, and talked about how we should give away the "good" food, and not just yuky food we didn't want. We tried our best to explain that there are kids and families who don't have as much as we do and what "poor means".
Last weekend we went through the girls toys in our quarterly purge and DI run (I'm not a mean mommy, we just live in a small townhouse and toys breed like rabbits here). Princess was around and started becoming very attached to things- plastic animals, McDonalds toys she didn't even care about when it came in her happy meal, you know how it goes. I seized the teaching moment and explained that we were giving the toys to the "poor kids" and went through the whole speil again. She got into it and started pulling books and other things to give to the "poor kids".
On Tuesday, our neighbor had a party that involved a bouncy castle. As I said before, we live in townhomes and we share a common grassy area behind our houses. In some evil twist of fate, the bouncy castle was set up RIGHT outside our gate. You can bet that Princess wanted to play on it. Unfortunately, we don't know this neighbor at all (He's a single dude so don't ask me why he had a bouncy castle party- there were kids involved, so I'm thinking birthday party for a neice/nephew?) so we had to tell her that she couldn't play.
She sat in our kitchen looking longingly at the big, pink bouncy castle, asking over, and over, and over again if she could go play. Finally, after being refused several times, she said "But Daddy, we're poor- we don't have a castle!"
Guess we need to work a bit on that whole "sharing our blessings with the poor" thing.

Posted by nliakos on May 14, 2015
by Jared Diamond (Basic Books, a member of the Perseus Books Group, 1997; ISBN 0-465-03126-9)
In this very short (less than 200 pages) book in only seven chapters with titles like "The Animal with the Weirdest Sex Life," "Why Don't Men Breast-feed Their Babies? The Non-Evolution of Male Lactation," and "What Are Men Good For? The Evolution of Men's Roles", Jared Diamond considers why human sexual behavior is so different from that of most (but not all!) other animal species, in that ovulation is concealed, intercourse is not limited to fertile periods, females experience menopause, and men's penises are larger than they need to be. He considers where humans fit on the spectrum of promiscuity, monogamy, and harems. He discusses different strategies for fertilization in use throughout the animal world. He postulates that perhaps the reason for menopause is that it allows women some years unencumbered by childcare during which they can finish raising their own children and help raising their grandchildren, and function as knowledgeable elders in their family or tribe. Like a book that describes a reader's native culture, allowing him or her to really notice it for the first time, this book helps readers to view human sexuality from a more objective vantage point and to wonder about how it came to be as it is. Diamond is just speculating, but he leads the reader to speculate with him; it's interesting.

I'm going to tell you about two people who have been pretty selfless this season. One is in Texas and one is far away, on the New York-Vermont state line. But I suspect that if they met, they'd get along.Jon Katz is a writer of fiction and non-fiction and blogger whom I've followed for well more than a decade. He writes mostly about animals, but also about his farm and recently, open-heart surgery. He seems to make every effort to be plain and honest in his writing.
Recently he wrote about his local farrier — blacksmith — who like so many people in that part of the Northeast has a good heart but little money. He is going in to get both knees replaced and in the recovery period his family and farm will not have any income.
He and Katz started a GoFundMe for Ken and his family. So far they have raised more than $24,000, in just a couple of days.
That's pretty wonderful.
The other person is one you may know, or know of. The Bloggess. Her blog is literally world-famous (I'm using the word literally properly here) and her book, "Let's Pretend This Never Happened" was a huge best-seller. She, like Katz, is open and straightforward about herself and her writing (but funnier).
Every year she gears up a Christmas donation project and brings a boatload of money to a worthy cause, such as Project Night Night.
She's pretty wonderful, too.
If you have any money, either of them would appreciate it.

First Reading
Genesis 18:20-32
A reading from the book of Genesis
Lord, do not be angry if I speak.
The Lord said, 'How great an outcry there is against Sodom and Gomorrah! How grievous is their sin! I propose to go down and see whether or not they have done all that is alleged in the outcry against them that has come up to me. I am determined to know.'
The men left there and went to Sodom while Abraham remained standing before the Lord. Approaching him he said, 'Are you really going to destroy the just man with the sinner? Perhaps there are fifty just men in the town. Will you really overwhelm them, will you not spare the place for the fifty just men in it? Do not think of doing such a thing: to kill the just man with the sinner, treating just and sinner alike! Do not think of it! Will the judge of the whole earth not administer justice?' The Lord replied, 'If at Sodom I find fifty just men in the town, I will spare the whole place because of them.'
Abraham replied, 'I am bold indeed to speak like this to my Lord, I who am dust and ashes. But perhaps the fifty just men lack five: will you destroy the whole city for five?' 'No,' he replied, 'I will not destroy it if I find forty-five just men there.' Again Abraham said to him, 'Perhaps there will be only forty there.' 'I will not do it' he replied 'for the sake of the forty.'
Abraham said, 'I trust my Lord will not be angry, but give me leave to speak: perhaps there will only be thirty there.' 'I will not do it' he replied 'if I find thirty there.' He said, 'I am bold indeed to speak like this, but perhaps there will only be twenty there.' 'I will not destroy it' he replied 'for the sake of the twenty.' He said, 'I trust my Lord will not be angry if I speak once more: perhaps there will only be ten.' 'I will not destroy it' he replied 'for the sake of the ten.'
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
Responsorial Psalm
Ps 137:1-3, 6-8
R. Lord, on the day I called for help, you answered me.
I thank you, Lord, with all my heart,
you have heard the words of my mouth.
Before the angels I will bless you.
I will adore before your holy temple. R.
I thank you for your faithfulness and love
which excel all we ever knew of you.
On the day I called, you answered;
you increased the strength of my soul. R.
The Lord is high yet he looks on the lowly
and the haughty he knows from afar.
Though I walk in the midst of affliction
you give me life and frustrate my foes. R.
You stretch out your hand and save me,
your hand will do all things for me.
Your love, O Lord, is eternal,
discard not the work of your hands. R.
Second Reading
Colossians 2:12-14
A reading from the letter of St Paul to the Colossians
He has made you alive with Christ for he has forgiven all our sins.
You have been buried with Christ, when you were baptised; and by baptism, too, you have been raised up with him through your belief in the power of God who raised him from the dead. You were dead, because you were sinners and had not been circumcised: he has brought you to life with him, he has forgiven us all our sins.
He has overridden the Law, and cancelled every record of the debt that we had to pay; he has done away with it by nailing it to the cross.
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
.Luke 11:1-13
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke
Ask, and it will be given to you.
Once Jesus was in a certain place praying, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said, 'Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.' He said to them, 'Say this when you pray:
"Father, may your name be held holy,
your kingdom come;
give us each day our daily bread,
and forgive us our sins,
for we ourselves forgive each one who is in debt to us.
And do not put us to the test."'
He also said to them, 'Suppose one of you has a friend and goes to him in the middle of the night to say, "My friend, lend me three loaves because a friend of mine on his travels has just arrived at my house and I have nothing to offer him"; and the man answers from inside the house, "Do not bother me. The door is bolted now, and my children and I are in bed; I cannot get up to give it to you." I tell you, if the man does not get up and give it to him for friendship's sake, persistence will be enough to make him get up and give his friend all he wants.
'So I say to you: Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. For the one who asks always receives; the one who searches always finds; the one who knocks will always have the door opened to him. what father among you would hand his son a stone when he asked for bread? Or hand him a snake instead of a fish? Or hand him a scorpion if he asked for an egg? If you then, who are evil, know how to give your children what is good, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!'
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

Continuing 50 years of energy cooperation Nord Stream 2 attends Russia Day 2016
May 31, 2016 | Zug | Nord Stream 2 joined almost 600 people in Rostock, in the German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommen (MV) on 25 May for Russian Day 2016, an event to discuss economic opportunities between Russia and Germany.
Sigmar Gabriel, Germany's Minister for Economic Affairs and Energy (SPD) and Denis Manturov, Russia's Minister of Trade and Industry, were among the guests at the event, and expressed their shared desire to strengthen bilateral economic relations.
Building on an almost 50 year relationship of gas trading, Matthias Warnig, CEO of Nord Stream 2, joined a panel discussion about German-Russian energy relations. He noted that the Nord Stream 2 pipeline is not only an example of Russo-German ties, but a collaboration among energy companies across Europe.
The discussion highlighted the EU's growing import gap, which is set to rise by 140bcm by 2035. With the Nord Stream pipeline already running at 80 percent of capacity this year, and other existing supply routes unable to fill the gap, the group discussed the need to invest in new infrastructure to meet EU gas demand. With its capacity of 55bcm per year, Nord Stream 2 can cover part of the EU's future gas requirement, alongside other supply options. Nord Stream 2's Chief Commercial Officer Reinhard Ontyd, added to the day's discussions with a more detailed presentation of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.
Delivering the evening's keynote speech, Sigmar Gabriel called for a gradual withdrawal of sanctions in favour of greater dialogue between Russia, Germany and the EU, which was supported by the delegates at the event.
Through a day of open discussion, Russia Day 2016 recognised the long-standing cooperation between Russia and Europe, and highlighted the mutual benefits of maintaining this positive relationship in the future.

Nurses and social workers who are interested in clinical case management can consider certificate program coursework, as well as required and voluntary certification options. It can also be helpful to find out about job duties for case managers.
Clinical Case Management Certificate Program
The most common type of clinical case management program awards a case management certificate. These programs can usually be completed in one year or less. Programs are available to nurses and social workers who need continuing education credits or internship experiences in order to meet state certification requirements. Graduates may also sit for voluntary certification exams.
Program Coursework
Some case management certificate programs are designed specifically for nurses. Topics of study within these programs can include:
- Ways to provide quality care despite budgetary constraints
- Assessing patient strengths and abilities
- Creating healthcare plans that address both-long term and short-term goals
- How the major kinds of insurance programs affect both the patient and the patient plan for recovery
- Financial concepts of case management
- Disease management
- Case management ethics
Case management programs for social workers are designed to help graduates improve the social conditions and well-being of the populations they serve. These programs provide education and training in a variety of relevant topics, including:
- Crisis intervention
- Social barriers to treatment services
- Client advocacy
- Ethical standards
- Client assessment
- Interviewing skills
- Social welfare
Certification Requirements
In most states, nurses do not need certification to work as case managers. However, some states require nurses or social workers who are case managers in the mental health field to become certified by passing a written examination. Continuing education requirements may be required to renew this certification.
Additionally, some states require social work case managers who wish to work in family and child service, mental health or substance abuse agencies to undergo a certification process. Different certifications exist for this field; some require a bachelor's or master's degree, while others require a high school diploma or equivalent. Work or volunteer experience in the field may be required.
Voluntary Certification
Voluntary certification is available through the Commission for Case Manager Certification. Successful completion of a case management certificate program can prepare an individual to sit for the case management certification examination. Earning certification shows prospective employers that the certification holder has the skills and knowledge to perform quality case management.
Job Information
Nurse case managers serve as administrators in medical facilities like hospitals and nursing homes. Working with patients, providers and health insurance companies, they devise healthcare programs for patients, including admissions, treatment and discharge plans. Sometimes, they directly examine patients in clinical settings. They are also involved in case load management. In February 2020, Payscale.com reported that the median annual salary for nurse case managers was $71,836.
Social workers with jobs as clinical case managers perform similar administrative duties as nurse case managers, although they are never involved in direct clinical assessments. Instead, they focus specifically on evaluating medical records and discussing issues with clients, in order to come up with admissions, treatment and discharge plans. Payscale.com reported a median annual salary of $38,799 for case managers in the social services industry in February 2020.
Both nurses and social workers have the option of focusing their careers on clinical case management, which usually involves completing a certificate program and/or earning certification.

I am not familiar with your track, but I would start with 15-18 driver. That will get you in the ballpark. I did use a 19 a couple of times last year, but those were special cases and you could get away with an 18 and a smaller rear gear if you had to. On the rear, I would say 60-65 will get you started and slowly spread out from there. Look for gears in buyouts and at swap meets. You can find them super cheap.

Randy Greebley is your typical teenage boy, with the typical
teenage boy issues, except for one big difference – when he gets horny, he
tends to get "horny." Literally. His feelings for his best friend Cricket
have grown recently, and it's becoming more than obvious, making it harder
for him to hide his other side whenever he sees her.
A nerdy, middle-class farm boy, Randy doesn't really have a lot to offer Cricket, but he can't let graduation pass without letting her know his true feelings. Can Randy get up the courage to reveal his secret and tell her how he truly feels? Does she feel the same, or will he always be stuck in the friendzone?
A senior class trip to the water park could be the hardest test of all for them both.

What is Data Refinement?
Data Refinement is a systematic process of converting a set of raw data into a usable, pertinent and integrated format for better understanding. It eliminates data redundancy and creates an organized and structured data source. Business analysts are benefited as they get to increase the overall productivity and efficiency of their work modules in a strategic way.
Data Refinement plays a very important role in data warehousing as the unrefined data can create havoc in the final statistical output from the data warehouse which the company will eventually use it as business intelligence. It does not apply only to one aspect in data warehousing but many stages starting from data modeling to final integration of systems in the data warehouse till the functioning of the entire business intelligence system.
In data modeling, data refining takes place when the semantics in the organization is being described at the time of developing the conceptual schema. All the abstract entity classes and relationships are identified and ensured that entities can be implemented on real-life events as a part of company activity. In case of data refining, all the unnecessary and irrelevant things are eliminated. The same thing is applied even in the logical schema where the tables, columns, XML tags and object-oriented are being described. Data refining ensures that the structures to store the data is well-defined.
In an Entity Relationship Model (ERM) data refining is used in order to ensure that all the relationship between the entities and their corresponding attributes are secure and accurate. It eliminated data redundancy and maintains integrity in which insert, update, and delete processes can be managed easily without compromising with the final data quality by broken integrity.
Data Refinement also plays an important role in database normalization in which technique is used in designing and relational database so data-duplication is reduced and the database is free from certain types on logical inconsistency.
Data massaging is a part of data mining in which the numbers, values, and statistics are extracted. The information that is found within the database predicts what the customer will do next.
Data Refining is the final action that is taken after data mining has completed all the stages in data collection or gathering.
Why is Data Refinement important?
Data Refinement speeds up the data procuring process and helps in finding the right data as per the business requirements, which makes the entire process simple. It is an added advantage in a structured business model as the data required for the analysis is directly available in a structured format which saves a lot of time and money for the organization. It also ensured that data which has been processed is updated periodically which keeps up the customer's trust for the organization. Below are the reasons why Data Refinement is important
- Success rate improves in your business campaigns.
- Eliminates undesirable and unwanted data in the system.
- A good response is ensured in your email campaigns.
- Quality of the client database improves.
- Save money on marketing and data management.

Written by Antonella Artuso for Toronto Sun
Canadians suspected of driving while high could be required to submit to a roadside saliva test that identifies the use of marijuana, cocaine and opioids.
An oral fluid test is one of the suggestions from a discussion paper released on June 30 by the Task Force on Marijuana Legalization and Regulation.
"In contrast to alcohol, there is currently no roadside breathalyzer-type test to detect impairment with marijuana," the task force discussion paper says. "However, roadside oral fluid tests are being used in other jurisdictions that can detect the presence of marijuana in oral fluid, which can be suggestive of recent use. This is an active area of Canadian and international research."
"Right now, the police only have a limited behavioural test they use," Murie said. "There's very few officers trained to do this. And basically the public knows that and they feel fairly confident that they can — especially young people — smoke pot and drive."

Introduction: 7 Steps to Use MyLearning System Enhancements for Administrators & Coordinators
This instruction will explain In 7 steps enhancements made to the system and you will be on your way to managing within the ELM!
Disclaimer: The steps outlined in these instructions are for persons who have a security role in PeopleSoft's Enterprise Learning Management System.If you are attempting to access menus outlined in the steps and do not have these options please contact your IT helpdesk to submit a request for access.
Materials List:
1. Computer with internet access - (select roll over text on photo to view example)
2. Workplace network connection
3. Prior training or knowledge of PeopleSoft HCM Software
4. Security role granted in the ELM (Administrator/Coordinator)
5. These instructions
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Log Into MyLearning
Navigate to the MyLearning log in screen (this will be dependent upon your workplace system access.) Once you are connected to your workplace network, log into MyLearning using your user ID and password credentials.
Step 2: Create a New Activity
Step 3: Auto Populated Reminder Template
When the system was introduced the process to send an activity reminder required administrators/coordinators to enter a system template name and the number of days before an event to notify a learner of an upcoming training. There is only one template in the system.
Rather than leaving the field blank or requiring a template to be entered the enhancement made will auto populate the notification template field along with the standard number of days that the system will send a reminder to the learner.
This step requires no action on the part of the administrator or coordinator. It removes a step. Both the template and send reminder day fields are editable. If you choose not to send a reminder or want to change the number of days you want to notifiy learners you can leave the fields blank or enter your own information.
Step 4: Monthly Communication From the System
To allow coordination and maintenence of your training activities we are introducing a new feature. A monthly communication will generate from the ELM letting you what activities need to be maintained. In the past you would have needed to keep a list of activities that you manage and update them weekly.
While spot auditing the ELM we found that activities were not being maintained. The process that an administrator or coordinator goes through in order to keep these records current was reviewed and found that it was time consuming and inefficient.
As a result of the improvement you will now receive a monthly e-mail from the system for the activities you manage. The e-mail includes a list and a clickable link to each activity. The goal is to update your activities on a monthly basis by providing you a list of items to review.
Step 5: Mark Activity Concluded
Marking activities concluded ensures that learners do not continue to enroll in activities that have already occurred. Reporting will also produce cleaner results. Below is an example of marking an activity Concluded. The monthly communication in step 4 asks you to open activities requiring maintenence.
The most common update is marking activities concluded. To update the activity status select "Concluded" from the dropdown menu. Always remember to click "Save" when you are done.
Step 6: Reporting
Reports generated about training activities help determine resources, system usage, effectiveness, and cost of providing training.
The examples here show how a report generated to track activities would look. The output of this type of report (the data) is what is useful for human resource anaylitics and compliance.
This step demonstrates how using the enhancements made to the system and users maintaining system data assists with accurate reports.
Step 7: Resources
This step recommends you to do a little research while working in the system.
At work I am a resource for Administrators and Coordinators. For the purpose of these instructions I have included helpful sources of PeopleSoft information to assist your understanding of the system software.

We finally headed downtown around 4:30, and even before we parked the car we saw some of our Kinfolk wandering around. It felt so good to have everyone here. We hung out outside for a while, watched the soundcheck, and caught up with friends.
Finally, as the line started to form, the crowds started to gather. We got in pretty quickly and easily, and found our spots up front while other friends found great spots on the lawn for their chairs. There are so many great spots at Simon Estes Amphitheater, you really can't lose. I spent most of my time before the show visiting with people, taking photos, and handing out Hope for Lilli bracelets.
I loved the mixture of friends we had with us that night. Not only did we have some of our usual Kinfolk down front, we had some of our best Des Moines friends and Colin's best friend's son Austin on the rail as well. As the sun started going down, the band came out only a couple minutes after 9 o'clock and got right after it with the traditional Yonder Mountain number "If There's Still Ramblin' in the Rambler (Let Him Go)". The crowd roared along with Jeff, "Well!!!!!" and we were off. As the crowd started bouncing and waving I ran around the amphitheater, taking photos and dancing a little with some non-railriding friends, but my roaming was cut short when they started "Southern Flavor". I just couldn't be without my Kinfolk for this song so I bolted back down to the front and rocked out with some of my girls. Immediately, I noticed that Dave, Ben, Jeff, and Adam were all ON FIRE! In a good way. They always play a great show in Des Moines, and I could immediately tell that this night would be no different. After "Southern Flavor", I continued my roaming for a couple more songs. After playing "Goodle Days", Jeff said that they based the night's show on a long list of requests made online, and I got even more excited, knowing how many great songs had been requested. But next they went into a song that Ben said "was not requested at all by anyone...", the crowd favorite "40 Miles From Denver".
I made it back down to the front just in time for "Strophe". I tried to tell Annie the name of the song, but somehow she couldn't understand "Strophe for an Unsung Albatross" over the music. "Jesus on the Mainline" was next and I thought about Emily, who really wanted to hear that song, but had to work a little late that night. I hoped she would make it to the show, and as if on cue, she appeared right behind me! It was just perfect. After "A Father's Arms", Jeff sang Happy Birthday to a young lady named Gabby that was celebrating her seventh birthday on the rail with her mom. It also just so happened to be Austin's eleventh birthday, so it was a young Yonder Kinfolk birthday party up front that night.
After the birthday shout outs, they went into a crazy "Traffic Jam"> "Whipping Post"> "Traffic Jam" sandwich. I could hear "Whipping Post" all the time, and lately we have been getting it a lot. They gave us a little bit of a breather with a beautiful "Midwest Gospel Radio". By this point, most of us were completely drenched in sweat; I think Pearhead had left his shirt in a soggy heap on the ground. It was such a hot and muggy night, with just no breeze. Oh well. We forgot our discomfort until a song would stop or we would dance so hard we would come close to passing out. In a good way. They finished off the set with the end of the "Rambler" sandwich. Wow. Now that's a first set in Des Moines.
When Yonder came out for the second set, I knew what I hoped to hear, but I didn't have any clue what we were in for. It was a "Rubyside" opener. Yes, you heard right. They opened the second set with "Rubyside". Next, Ben got a little pep talk from Adam before singing "Someday's Reunion", another request. I always think of Pearhead and Amanda when I hear this song, so it was nice to have them there with us. Next, from the depths of Dave's "dark, stinky imagination" was "Mental Breakdown". Always fun. Then Adam introduced the next song as a newer song that "if you don't see us that much - you've never heard it, if you see us a lot - you have". It was Jeff's "Lay it on the Line"; a song that has been in my head quite a lot in the week since this show.
Jeff spoke some great words about our Kinfolk family before Adam strummed the opening chords to "Northern Song". I love this song. I think they do a great job with Beatles covers and should definitely do more of them (hint, hint). But this time this song raged harder than ever before. Dave was just playing the heck out of that banjo. Maybe it was because his mom was there, but whatever the reason, he was MVP of this show. I think Colin said it best, "Save some for later, Dave!"
Their next song was one of Colin's requests that we were both so very excited to hear. "Pretty Daughter" is such a great song, and what Yonder has done with it is just awesome. Awesome, I tell you. Then we got "Spanish Harlem Incident", which we hadn't heard since Groundhog Day... which is way too long to go without this song. The second set wrapped up with "Keep on Going"> "Part 1"> "Mother's Only Son"> "Keep on Going". What a great sandwich. "Keep on Going" is such a feel-good Kinfolk song. And who doesn't love a little chunk of the Sherif Saga?
As they came out for the encore, Jeff expressed his love for the Midwest. "We'll play this next song as long as you promise to dance your little asses off." They finished off with Boatman, and the crowd was happy. This was yet another fantastic hometown show, and after so many miles, it's good to just drive down the street and see our favorite band and so many of our favorite people. Take my advice: don't ever miss a Des Moines Yonder show. That is all.

How a Mediated Divorce Can Help Arguing Spouses
Mediation can work for divorcing people no matter what stage they are in their relationship with each other. Oftentimes at the beginning of a divorce process people are upset, angry, betrayed, bringing the history of their marriage into a mediation setting, and I generally redirect them to what the issue is at hand and the issue at hand would be resolving all their financial parenting disputes and coming up with an agreement that works for both parties and occasionally in mediation one spouse appears to be extremely angry with the other, we might just take a timeout for a few minutes, I might talk to that spouse individually to see what the concern is, and generally we can move beyond whatever the anger or hostility is between the spouses.
This informational blog post was brought to you by Cynthia L. Hanley, an experienced Mansfield, Massachusetts Divorce Lawyer.

I understand Dynex isn't a great brand by reputation. I'm pretty sure it's BestBuy's brand they just slap on their label on other manufacturers stuff. The thing is I would be more likely to agree that it's the PSU if you had a reason, aside from the brand name. Is the voltage too low? Is there not enough wattage? What is the actual cause of the problem?
Yeah, suddenly with Haswell's release everyone is talking up the 3770k like it's the best overclocker in the world. Anyone buying a new 3770k is in for a surprise, I suspect it definitely gets hot as well, people forget so soon. Additionally, Haswell can obviously be delid as well so that isn't' a valid argument for getting IVB over Haswell. Personally there is no way i'd opt for IVB over Haswell for a new PC build Haswell has the obvious IPC increase even if you're incredibly unlucky and get https://www.torontotempest.ca a slightly lower oc (which will offset a slightly lower OC) lv limited edition wallet 2016
and Z87 is just a better platform than Z77 by far.
Interviews, lasting on average an hour, explored individuals' expectations, experiences, and opinions of electronic health records. The interviewers were five university employees (KC, AT, DP, SC, and AR), all experienced qualitative researchers with no prior relationships with the interviewees. Early https://www.torontotempest.ca interviews were guided by topic guides (see appendix 4) designed for specific interviewee groups. As each case study progressed, the lead researcher at that site adapted interview guides and other data collection to respond to previously collected data and emerging themes. Nearly all interviews were audio recorded (table 1). For a few interviews, participants requested not to be recorded, and in such instances the researcher took notes. Professional transcribers transcribed the interviews verbatim, with the interviewers then checking the transcripts for accuracy. Copies of the transcripts were available to interviewees, although only a minority requested to see them; there were no cases of interviewees disputing the transcript contents.

The theme for our life last week was fear and doubt. This week the theme is courage.
Last week, my wife continued her fight against breast cancer. She's winning the fight. It's not been easy, but it's been rewarding – and successful. There's every reason to expect a good outcome.
She caught it early; has a great team of doctors; and is surrounded by a throng of folks supporting her physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. The prayer warriors are legion.
Once the battle was joined against the big C, we adopted a little swagger in the fight. It's easier to do when you're winning.
"What – me worry?" That Alfred E. Neuman rejoinder became our cautiously optimistic answer to challenges.
Call it bravado. Call it hesitant bravery. We acted brave – not always feeling it – and kept doing everything to stack the odds in our favor.
It worked until last week. She sat in a waiting room with fellow patients who had been to the radiation rodeo before. Recurrence is a scary word.
Real life brings academic knowledge down to earth. Valor diminishes with doubt. Fear follows doubt when clear answers to ominous questions are impossible to know.
This week I attended an early screening of the movie, Courageous. It's a cop movie – good guys, bad guys, and some in between. The overt examples of bravery were numerous, easy to spot, and really exciting.
Other examples of courage in the movie were far more subtle: persistence, love, self discipline, self examination, and a grounded belief in doing the right thing for the right reason. Not nearly as entertaining, but more meaningful and much more lasting.
Isn't that what courage really is?

The Kid
Our beloved daughter Leena was born in March 2016 after a truly miserable pregnancy and quick delivery. She was placed on my chest, grunted like a piglet and stole my heart. While I am hesitant to share too much of her online, I also cannot leave out mention of the most important person in my life. She's adorable, clever, stubborn and strong-willed, unbelievably cute. I cannot wait to see her grow up, while also dreading every developmental step that takes her further from the tiny baby she once was.

NPR Staffers Narrowly Escape Bomb Blast
NPR says that a reporter and crewmembers were saved from a bomb attack in Iraq thanks to local officials and an informant.
According to an e-mail from NPR News foreign editor Loren Jenkins, correspondent Ivan Watson, Iraqi producer/translator Ali Hamdani, and two Iraqi drivers who asked not to be named, were returning to their vehicle after an interview in Baghdad when they were stopped by Iraqi soldiers screaming "bomb!"
Several seconds later, the armored vehicle in which they had been riding exploded, apparently from a so-called "sticky bomb" secured by magnets under the driver's side.
One suspect was arrested, and Iraqi officials said they had been tipped to the bomb by an informant.
"NPR is deeply grateful to the swift actions by Iraqi authorities today in Western Baghdad that prevented its American and Iraqi reporting team there from being injured in a bomb attack on their armored vehicle," said Jenkins.

I'm so happy to be here. I first found AJ and Mary about 18 months ago when I needed something to listen to while I sat and made jewellery!
The jewellery is now no longer happening but I'm still very interested in the divine truth and really happy to discover this forum. I wouldn't say I'm making fantastic progress with it but I am definitely better at admitting my own feelings to myself and being willing to feel them than I was before. There is more honesty in my relationship with my husband than before but, yes, still a LOT of work to do on myself.

The Psychology of Bystanders, Perpetrators, and Heroic Helpers
The Psychology of Bystanders, Perpetrators, and Heroic Helpers
What leads groups of people or governments to perpetrate genocide or mass killing? What are the characteristics and psychological processes of individuals and societies that contribute to such group violence? What is the nature of the evolution that leads to it: what are the motives, how do they arise and intensify, how do inhibitions decline? A primary example in this article is the Holocaust, the killing of 5–6 million European Jews by Nazi Germany during World War II. This chapter deals with the psychology and role of both perpetrators and bystanders. As a result of their passivity in the face of others' suffering, bystanders change: they come to accept the persecution and suffering of victims, and some even join the perpetrators. Another focus of this chapter is the psychology of those who attempt to save intended victims, endangering their own lives to do so. Bystanders, perpetrators, and heroic helpers face similar conditions and may be part of the same culture.
Keywords: Holocaust, genocide, mass killing, psychology, bystanders, perpetrators, group violence, Nazi Germany, motives, persecution

Paul F. Tompkins
August 7, 2010
posted by Caroline Picard
We went to see Paul F. Tompkins the other night and it really, made me so happy. I haven't often been to stand up comedy. The first time I went to Reno as a six year old–my mom, my dad, brother, sister–we went to see Joan Rivers at someone of those crazy-light-casino clubs. My mother, who had booked the show, was horrified I think. She kept trying to cover my ears, or take me outside (an effort I was strategically oblivious to) as Rivers continued to make drunk and old vagina jokes. While I don't remember laughing, I remember being intensly curious–as though some curtain was being drawn back. Behind which revealed a real adulthood–no doubt something I struggled to recognize, with the expectation that it might somehow explain the curious and on-going stress of my parents.
The second time I went to something in San Francisco–it was a non-date group date, where I think these friends of friends were testing out dating strategies. We were probably 18. One friend wore a sports coat with a t-shirt and referred to himself as being "very L.A." They took use (there were probably six of us altogether) to a comedy club's open mic night. We saw maybe five people, and at the time I loved it because I saw the beginnings of that comedic path. In other words, aside from one woman who was embarassing, the comedians were pretty funny. They were also really raw. It was clear they were putting a lot into their performance, learning in the process how to pull back and push themselves–
In any case. Last weekend I saw Tompkins and it blew my mind. The clip included doesn't likely do him justice. The whole I felt like I was in the hands of a polished and generous performer. An excellent story-teller too–I couldn't help thinking about that aspect of his practice. How you are being born along by a carefully composed narrative–one so well crafted as to allow for improvisation–where old jokes are brought back with new relevance in a later part of the set.
In talking to Devin after wards, he mentioned how Charlie Chaplin was never the butt of the joke. Or, maybe another way to put it–he is often the victim of circumstance. The idiocy of others (say in the above instance, the fainting woman,) that he transforms into comedy. By contrast, Devin mentioned Tati, who is always the butt of the joke–a character incongruous with modern life, he bumbles through those scenes and, by way of his own absent-mindedness causes them to fall apart completely. (I'm thinking here of the restaurant scene in Playtime, though the following clip from Mon Uncle also illustrates the point).
At any rate, Tompkins was the butt of many jokes, jokes about the foibles of one's own psyche–curious and unescessary. He began with a nod to the Europeans who "still don't get that comedy doesn't have to be about falling down." There tends to be a fall-back comedic method of self-loathing/confession where one makes jokes about how he or she can't "get laid" (I feel like netflix comedians love to say that) or jokes about weight–the kind of boiler plate lowest common denomenator, generally mean-spirited, heteronormative knocks. But here, instead, I felt like I became part of a narrative that carried me along–opening up in curious ways, so that, say a punchline would be about a nap. Or about stealing. Or the curious industry of celebrity and when it abutts one's own small life.

OOOOHHH! I admit that I didn't even look at the address because I didn't know there was another location.
I just noted when the deal came up that they pictured a family (clearly not actually playing) on a Pump stage. That was what caught my eye more than anything. Also, the fact that the picture looked like a non-professional photo that was taken in the venue itself rather than all the super-airbrushed stock images that get used with the deluge of massage deals that are usually on LivingSocial.

Tibet, a mystic land, was always at the top of wishlists of all travel enthusiasts and adventurers. However, getting there can be a bit tricky. Today we are explaining to you how to get there.
Tibet Permit
In case you are travelling to Tibet from China, you will, naturally, first of all, need a Chinese visa. But that wouldn't be all. Every tourist needs something called a Tibet permit. Without this, you cannot cross over to Tibet. The full name of this permit was changed this year in April and now it is officially known as the "Letter of Confirmation for Entry into the Tibet Autonomous Region of the P.R. China".
Required Documents
To apply for this permit, you will need to do a couple of things:
- email the scanned copy of your Chinese visa
- and email your passport
to a licensed Tibet travel agency. You are required to book a tour with a Tibet travel agency to get the permit, a vehicle and a tour guide. You cannot enter many places like temples and similar buildings, without a tour guide. However, the tour guide will not be constantly with you, you are allowed to wander through streets on your own. The thing you can't do is to use the public transportation alone.
Pay attention that your passport needs to be valid for at least the next six months for a single or a double entry visa, and for at least nine months for a multiple entry visa. You also need to keep in mind that this permit is only valid for Lhasa, Tibet's capital. In case you wish to travel outside of Lhasa, you will need additional permits. Therefore, you are obliged to book tours with your tour company.
Always keep a couple of copies of the permit with you. Officials at train stations will ask for them. Your original permit will be checked at airports. During your stay in Tibet, your permit will be probably checked at the hotel you are staying in.
What to Visit
Potala Palace also called the heart of the Tibetan Buddism is a must-see
Potala Palace
Also called the heart of the Tibetan Buddism is a must-see. This symbol of Tibet is a sort of a museum since it's keeping artefacts from Tibetan history inside its walls. Many Buddha statues, murals, antiques, gold and silver object, porcelain and sculptures have found their home here. This building is a Unesco World Heritage Site since 1994. From the 7th century, this building serves as Dalai Lama's winter palace. This is a place of administration of Tibet, place where the signing of political agreements happens.
You shouldn't miss Jokhang Temple. This Buddhist temple is one of the most sacred temples in Tibet. Location of this palace is in the old area of Lhasa, on the Barkhor Street. The purpose of building this temple was to promote the Buddist religion. Therefore, there is a large number of murals, mainly portraying scenes of Tibetan history. Also, you can find many shops with traditional souvenirs nearby as well.
Norbulingka palace construction took place at the end of the Eighteen century. Four palaces, monastery and a large garden make this historical monument which location is near Potala Palace. Norbulingka is now an open park where numerous festivals happen. Also. this is a place where various excursion takes place.
Namtso lake
Namtso translated into English means Heavenly lake. Standing at 4718 metres, this is the highest saltwater lake in the world. During the year of a Sheep, this lake is a place of pilgrimage for many Tibetans. Locals here express their worship to Guardian Angels, praying for a good harvest. With its breathtaking scenery and incredible colours of nature, Namco lake attracts a large number of tourists every year.
Locals always recommend that it is better to visit this place in summer due to heavy snow in the winter and autumn. At altitude like this recommendation is to always dress in many different layers, due to constant weather changes and strong windy weather.
We can help you with the whole visa application process. Viselio offers you a quick and highly secure way for the online visa application process. if you need a visa for China you can simply apply with us. We will take care of the rest.
If you have any additional questions, you can contact us.
Thank you for reading.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) December 13, 2018
Mediaplanet today announces the launch of this December's issue of "Transplants: The Gift of Life " This cross-platform campaign raises awareness regarding organ transplantation while encouraging readers to sign up as an organ and/or whole-body donor for the 120,000 people in the United States who are currently waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant.
One organ donor can save up to 8 lives, however, an average of 22 people die every day waiting for an organ. Unfortunately, those outside of the transplant community have little awareness of these facts, and this campaign sheds light onto the impact organ donation has had on recipients while highlighting the very best resources and services that are available for those who need it the most.
The print component of "Transplants: The Gift Life" is distributed within today's edition of USA Today in New York, Los Angeles, the Carolinas, Atlanta, Houston, and Washington DC/Baltimore markets, with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000. The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets. To explore the digital version of the campaign, visit: http://www.futureofpersonalhealth.com/topic/transplants
This campaign was made possible with the support of the American Society of Transplantation, National Kidney Foundation, American Kidney Fund, American Society of Nephrology, Children's Organ Transplant Association, UNC Health, UW Health, DKMS, Viracor Eurofins, Scripps Health, FCB Health Network and Tampa General Hospital.
