Savoy Ottoman Palace Hotel Review - 16 of 35 Reviews
This is a hotel review for Savoy Ottoman Palace Hotel in Kyrenia, North Cyprus
"Relaxing, hospitable, courteous and affordable"
More of a business hotel than a tourist one but this did not detract from our overall opinion of the Savoy Ottoman Palace which was very good. There were a few tiny things to pick upon - the gym needs air conditioning, they need a greater choice of music, the casino is actually a room full of machines and the half board package should be flexible enough to be able to swap dinner for lunch, but other than that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider using the hotel again if we returned.
Liked — Location, hotel size, ambience and beach service
Disliked — Listening to Alicia Keys Empire State 8 times a day

FILE PHOTO: The Carige bank logo is seen in Rome, Italy, April 16, 2016. REUTERS/Stefano Rellandini September 19, 2019
By Andrea Mandala
MILAN (Reuters) – Thousands of small shareholders in Carige <CRGI.MI> have signed up to attend a meeting on Friday in an attempt to push through a last-ditch rescue plan that could be sunk by the Italian bank's mercurial top investor.
With a 27.5% stake that makes it the single largest investor in Carige, the billionaire Malacalza family has the power to again derail rescue efforts, after blocking a 400 million euro ($442 million) cash call in December and prompting the European Central Bank to place the bank under special administration.
Capital needs have since swollen to 900 million euros and Carige faces liquidation or a resolution process should it fail to plug the gap with funds grudgingly provided by healthier peers.
The Malacalzas have not made clear whether or not they back measures that would drastically reduce a stake they have spent more than 400 million euros on and which is now worth 23 million euros. Their absence on Friday would ensure the plan's approval.
Malacalza Investimenti declined to comment.
A source close to the matter said expected attendance stood so far at around 80% of Carige's capital. An attendance rate of at least 90% and a majority of two thirds of votes are needed to counter a potential rejection by the Malacalzas.
"Shareholders must close ranks and bite the bullet", said Davide Viziano, a small builder who has invested in Carige in the past and is now working with other businessmen to boost attendance on Friday.
"Carige is a great asset for our economy and it would be awful for us to lose it," he added.
The Liguria region's maritime economy has been battered by the global shipping slump, a domestic recession and last year's deadly collapse of a bridge which severed the port of Genoa's main link to France.
Viziano said the local community had sent "smoke signals" to the Malacalzas in the hope they either desert the meeting altogether or leave the room during the vote.
"I understand they may not want to vote in favor, but this what they could do to show they care about Genoa like they did in the past when they stepped in to save Carige."
Carige, which had a market value of 85 million euros when its shares were suspended from trading in January, has tapped shareholders for more than 2 billion euros in the last five years.
Weakened by decades of mismanagement and an excessive local exposure, Carige has piled up more than 1.6 billion euros in losses since 2014, mostly due to bad loans.
Under the rescue package, a new share issue would hand control of Carige to a fund financed by Italian lenders before rival Cassa Centrale Banca can exercise an option to take over the bank.

Last week, feeling a little bored, I challenged myself to try something different. I randomly chose three colors just to see what I could do with them. Being neutrals, they were quite unlike my usual bright and bold palette of saturated reds, yellows, greens and blues.
The three were: alizarin crimson, Payne's grey and Titan Buff. To those three I added the essential Titanium White and Carbon Black to be able to create a full range of values. This little experiment resulted in two small paintings, one 6x6 inches and one 8x8 inches. Here's the 6x6:
|©2015 Lynn Edwards
In this piece I kept the alizarin crimson rather understated. I used it mostly full strength, but when it's diluted with water or clear medium, it produces a hue I can only describe as a soft, rosy blush. (You can see traces of the blush color in the two lower quadrants of the painting.)
I found the alizarin crimson to be somewhat tricky to use. It went on unevenly so I had to modify it with acrylic medium to get it to behave. But its beautiful color made up for the minor frustration. Age may have been a factor in this. My container of alizarin crimson was several years old and -- until last week -- had never been opened. (Hey, when I said to use a color you ordinarily avoid, I meant it!)
The 8x8 isn't quite finished yet, but when it is I'll post a photo here on the blog.
I did learn a thing or two experimenting with this unlikely (for me, anyway) color trio. I found I really liked the warmth of Titan Buff against the cooler Payne's Grey, which is actually dark blue. And I learned that the tiniest drop of the alizarin crimson when added to the white or the buff resulted in a much stronger tint than I expected. So restraint must be used when adding it to other colors.
This exercise has me thinking I'll use this color combo more often in the future. I like the contrasts it presents, and the way the colors work together. These are discoveries I would not have made had I stuck with my usual color choices. This simple exercise has been a fun, yet effective way to escape an all-too-comfortable color rut. I'll definitely use it again!

Spring Statement 2018: Philip Hammond fixes his eye on the horizon while local councils drown
'No red box, no official document, no spending increases, no tax changes." The Treasury official probably regretted leaving out "no fun". The chancellor has decided there is no need for two big financial statements each year. Big adjustments must await the budget proper in late autumn; this Tuesday he aims to get what little he has to say off his chest in less than 20 minutes.
For Philip Hammond greyness is the point. He does not want to do anything exciting. The chancellor will resist calls from Labour, from Conservative councils and even from some Tory MPs for "an end to austerity". Calls that have become almost deafening since the Office for National Statistics announced this month that the UK has at last hit George

Balancing the grace of the natural world between the real and the imagined by Wendi Schneider
Wendi Schneider is a Denver-based visual artist whose painterly photographs illuminate a deep reverence for the natural world. Born in Memphis, she holds an AA in Art History from Stephens College in Columbia, MO and a BA in Painting from Newcomb/Tulane in New Orleans. Her photographs are inspired by the lush Southern landscape and a background in painting and art history.
Wendi turned to photography in the early '80s to create references for paintings. Missing the sensuality of oils, she began layering glazes on her photographs to create a more personal interpretation. After she photographed, designed and produced the award-winning re-creation of the 1901 Picayune's Creole Cook Book for The Times-Picayune, she moved to New York, where she photographed nearly 100 book covers and was a major contributor to the original Victoria Magazine. She moved to Denver in 1994, and after several decades of photography, design and art direction for clients, she recently returned to fine art photography. She is the recipient of multiple awards and her works have been exhibited throughout the world.
In order to achieve her distinctive photographic style, she developed various original techniques, which involve precious metals, hand painting and Polaroid film.
States of Grace Encaustic
In State of Grace Encaustic Wendy illuminates beauty amidst the chaos. She is calmed by the simplicity of a graceful line and the stillness of the suspended moment and compelled to share an impression of the serenity she finds here. She captures the ephemeral movement of light on organic forms, to preserve that mystical moment that stills time for her. Photographing intuitively - what she feels, as much as what she sees - and informed by a background in painting and art history, I portray a personal interpretation by layering the images digitally with color and texture to find balance between the real and the imagined.
Hand-Painted Photographs
Most of her hand-painted photographs date from the early 1980s to the mid-1990s. Her hand-coloring technique was developed from a background in oil painting and was influenced by techniques of old masters. Delicate layers of oil paint are painstakingly applied to each archival fiber print to achieve rich and subtle hues. This technique differs from traditional hand-tinting, which involves applying and then removing color to leave a 'tint" of color.
Polaroid Transfers
Josephine with Pearls - New York, NY - c. 1991
Draped Nude - New York, NY - c. 1991
Eve (Girl with Apple) - New York , NY - c. 1990
These images were photographed on slide film, copied to Polaroid instant film, then peeled apart before fully developed and printed on damp archival watercolor paper.Some of these prints were then enhanced with watercolors or colored pencils.
States of Grace
In States of Grace, she illuminates beauty amidst the chaos. She captures the ephemeral movement of light on organic forms, to preserve that mystical moment that stills time. White gold, silver or 24k gold leaf is applied behind the image, creating a silken luminosity on the print's surface. Throughout history, civilizations have prized the use of precious metals for their beauty and sanctity. The leafing process suffuses the intrinsic value of the treasured subjects with the implied spirituality of the gold. The perception of luminosity varies as the viewer's position and ambient light change.

There are two kinds of last days. There are the Last Days which are now and which the Lord is not directly pouring out His wrath upon the unbelieving world or punishing Israel. Some people separate the two kinds as distinct and other people put them all into one general time frame.
There are the last days after the rapture when Jesus will pour out His wrath upon the unbelieving world and punish Israel. That time is also known as the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21), the Time of Jacob's Trouble (Jeremiah 3:7), and The Day of the Lord or just The Day (Isaiah 2:12, Isaiah 13:6, Isaiah 13:9, Isaiah 34:8, Jeremiah 46:10, Lamentations 2:22, Ezekiel 13:5, Ezekiel 30:3, Joel 1:15, Joel 2:1, Joel 2:11, Joel 2:31, Joel 3:14, Amos 5:18, Amos 5:20, Obadiah 1:15, Zephaniah 1:7, Zephaniah 1:8, Zephaniah 1:14, Zephaniah 1:18, Zephaniah 2:2, Zephaniah 2:3, Zechariah 14:1, Malachi 4:5, Acts 2:20, 1 Corinthians 5:5, 2 Corinthians 1:14, 1 Thessalonians 5:2, 2 Peter 3:10).
Personally I think of the two as one general time frame, the wrath being generally revealed now in these last days (as per Romans 1:18) and then wrath being directly poured out during the Great Tribulation after the Rapture, as all one "last days". I think this because it is all the time between Jesus' two appearances, from His ascension to His second coming.
In the New Testament, Hebrews 1:2 acknowledges that "last days" are now and that God has spoken to us by His Son. 2 Peter 3:3-4 mentions the last days, so does 1 Peter 1:20, and Jude 1:18. John MacArthur preached that the last days are now, in the sermon Understanding the Seducing Spirit. MacArthur also includes the Millennial Kingdom as part of the Last Times.
All of these verses tell us that the last times are the times after Christ came in His first coming. When Christ came, He began the last times, the Messianic era. The Messianic era begins with the coming of Jesus Christ. So we are now living in the last times, between His first coming and the Second Coming when He sets up His glory on the earth and then into the eternal Kingdom, all of that is the last times. We are living then in the last times. "My little children, it is the last days now." It is the time of Messiah, He has already come, He is now building His Kingdom in the hearts of men and will return to establish it on the earth and then throughout eternity. We are living in the last times.Over all, you can see that the last days are not some mysterious future days but are in fact happening now.
One distinctive quality of the Last Days is God's wrath when it is directly poured out. It is not popular to speak of His wrath. Christians today like to focus on His love. That is all well and good, God's love is a fine, wonderful thing. But so is His wrath. It is God's wrath that Jesus mentioned. It is wrath that we are warned to flee from.
His wrath is a holy, justified, perfect wrath that will cleanse the earth of sin and sinners and perversity and putridness it has been cursed with since the Fall. It will restore the earth to its perfect state, it will show the Lord holy and just. We must pay attention to the wrath. We must include the wrath in the Gospel message and warn that these are the last days.
God's wrath is part of the Last Days. Since the last days are now, the New Testament speaks of the wrath that already abides on those who do not believe, (John 3:36), rests on those who suppress the truth in unrighteousness (Romans 1:18), on those with impenitent hearts who are storing up God's wrath (Romans 2:5). The Lord has created vessels of wrath prepared for destruction (Romans 9:22). And much more. Do a BibleGateway search in the New Testament for wrath and you will find 36 verses discussing it.
As for the Bible's discussion of the wrath on the Day of the Lord, that also is sobering. Pasted below are all the verses I could find which speak of the Day of The Lord in the last times when His vengeance will be poured out. The Day of the Lord's anger is a real, coming event. He is holding it back now, and showing it only in indirect ways. Only the Lord knows when it will begin directly, and thankfully, Christians won't be on earth to bear it. However, just reading about the Last Days and His promise of destruction of those who live in unrighteousness is a very serious thought, which pierces my heart and makes me shudder.
Book of 1 Thessalonians discusses it at length
Book of 2 Thessalonians discusses it at length
Isaiah 2:12 For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:

Joel 3:14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
Amos 5:18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the Lord! to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.
Amos 5:20 Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
Obadiah 1:15 For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.
Zephaniah 1:7 Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord God: for the day of the Lord is at hand: for the Lord hath prepared a sacrifice, he hath bid his guests.
Zephaniah 1:8 And it shall come to pass in the day of the Lord's sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king's children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel.
Zephaniah 1:14 The great day of the Lord is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the Lord: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.
Zephaniah 1:18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the Lord's wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.
Zephaniah 2:2 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the Lord come upon you, before the day of the Lord's anger come upon you.
Zephaniah 2:3 Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord's anger.
Zechariah 14:1 Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
Malachi 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:
Acts 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:
1 Corinthians 5:5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
2 Corinthians 1:14 As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
1 Thessalonians 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
The Lord's anger is burning against people now in these last days, he has revealed it in consciences and in circumstances and in weather...but then will come a day when all that dwell on the earth will know it is the LORD who is causing the earth's problems, and then, who can stand in the great day of His wrath?
Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains, 16calling to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, 17for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?" (Revelation 6:15-17)
The takeaways are:
- The Last Days are happening now
- The wrath of God already indirectly abides on the earth and the unrighteous
- The wrath of God will be directly poured out at the end of the Last Days during the Great Tribulation
- Don't avoid talking about the wrath- both the OT and the NT promise it during the Last Days and the Great Day, so we should heed the warnings and include it in the Gospel Message.

London's cereal cafe targeted in protest against gentrification
LONDON — The owners of the Killer Cereal Cafe in East London say they were targeted by an "angry mob" of anti-gentrification protestors on Saturday night.
The controversial cafe tweeted a photo of the front of their store Sunday morning, that shows paint thrown across it and the word "scum" written on it.
Unhappy with the state of the country? Why not attack a small business #smart pic.twitter.com/gt3oL8Z4Vm

"Staff and customers unharmed," the cafe Tweeted Saturday night. "Although children were in the cafe, mob still around so stay away from shoreditch."
Transport for London tweeted a photo Saturday night showing the demonstration with a couple hundred people involved.

— TfL Traffic News (@TfLTrafficNews) September 26, 2015
The group organising the protest described it on Facebook as a "street party" — saying they are standing up to gentrification in London.
"Our communities are being ripped apart - by Russian oligarchs, Saudi Sheiks, Israeli scumbag property developers, Texan oil-money twats and our own home-grown Eton toffs," F*ck Parade London says in its Facebook event.
"London is our home and worth defending against this onslaught of dog-eat-dog economics. Working class people are being forced out of our homes but we won't go out without a fight."
It tweeted throughout the protest.

In a statement emailed to Mashable, Met Police said one person was arrested.
On Saturday, 26 September, police officers dealt with disorder arising from a pre-planned even in the Shoreditch area.
From around 20:00hrs, a criminal element within a group of several hundred people threw missiles and caused criminal damage to shops and other businesses in and around Brick Lane, E2. The group continued to move around the Shoreditch and Brick Lane area until around 00:30hrs on Sunday, 27 September.
One officer suffered a minor injury to his face as a result of a bottle thrown. One person has been arrested on suspicion of criminal damage.
London's Killer Cereal Cafe, which opened in late 2014, serves more than 100 types of cereals sourced from France, America, Australia, South Africa and South Korea — a small bowl of cereal costs £3 ($4.55).

A £1.4 million project to transform a local church in Cults, Aberdeen into an engaging Outreach Centre, built for the community by Cults Parish Church, is inching closer to completion.
Once complete, the two-storey building – on the site of the old East Church – will include a new, attractive modern cafe, two public halls, on-site car parking, and several meeting rooms which will allow both adult and youth groups to attend simultaneously. Burns Construction of Aberdeen is the main contractor on the project and Ian Rodger Architects is providing all architectural services on the development.
The work on the community facility began last year in October and is due to be completed by September 2013. The new building will incorporate stained glass windows and will reuse granite from the two towers of the East Church building. The granite has been rebuilt to form a spine through the middle of the Outreach Centre.
A new feature added to the Outreach Centre will be the curved timber-clad segments encompassing the cafe and other facilities. In addition, the centre will also include some of the previous church's architectural features, as well as include an added modern twist in order to make the church reach out to people of all ages within the community.
Cults Parish Church has been holding various fund-raising ventures in the community itself. Additional funding for the project was achieved through a partial sale of the site.
Ian Rodger, the Architect of the Outreach Centre, said:
"It is an honour to be able to do a building that is designed for the community of Cults. It is quite a landmark building for the location."
Cults Parish Church was previously two churches, split into Cults East and Cults West; before it was decided that attempting to maintain two church buildings in the same community was impractical. Upon reaching this decision the scheme was put in place to reinforce worship at West, whilst extending the church's outreach to the community at the new development.
The church is already involved in numerous activities and groups including; badminton, Brownies, bible groups, playgroup & nursery, and much more. Showing their commitment in connecting with their community, the number of activities at the church is set to increase even more thanks to the new building facilities.

- Do not overuse bold, italic and all capital letters (which can be hard to read).
- Make sure Tables and Figures stand on their own and can be understood when shown.
- As a guide: max. 6 words per bullet, max. 6 bullets /lines per slide.
- If you have more than four rows or four columns in a table, it will be difficult to read.
- Keep the colour scheme the same throughout the presentation.
- Make liberal use of graphics to illustrate points, rather than lots of text.
- Keep fonts, bullets, colour, and graphics consistent in the presentation. Avoid depicting differences using red and green – those with colour blindness may not see the difference.
- Only use text fonts that are included in the basic installation of the English version of Microsoft Windows. Less common fonts may not appear properly.
- For images, a dpi setting higher than 200 dpi is not necessary. It will only increase file size.
- As a guide, aim for about 1 slide per minute of presentation.
Practice your talk, especially with colleagues, for timing and clarity. Please stick to your allotted time as Session Chairs will still be strict with timekeeping.

A beekeeper's perspective on risk
Harvard Business Review Share
Michael O'Malley, Ph.D., writes, "A decade ago, I embarked on a new hobby — one that many more people have taken up in the meantime. I became a beekeeper. At the same time, I became a bee observer. Like Sherlock Holmes (in "His Last Bow"), I spent many pensive nights and laborious days watching the little working gangs. What I didn't expect was to learn lessons about organizational strategy and behavior that would inform my work as a human capital consultant." More

I have been reading about this all day trying to decide what to do. I have multiple marketpress related problems that I'm thinking may be solved by using multisite.
First of all I don't understand the difference between multisite and wordpress MU. From what I understand multisite is something that's built into the core of wordpress and wordpress MU is a plug in from WPMU. Or am I wrong. If so which one should I use if any?
Here are my problems (site= http://www.catrinasgarden.com)
First – your new shipping modules are awesome; however is still have this basic problem. Different growers and artists with vastly different products and shipping needs will be selling their stuff on my site. If I go to multisite am I correct that they would be able to have their own settings for shipping on a per site basis?
I have not figured out "configured" shipping yet. If I check priority and first class in the options would it just be up to the customer to choose the correct shipping? Can I make it so Priority is required for certain purchases – like plants? This is what I started off with working on today and I think this will be a separate set of questions, but I wasn't able to get the configured option working yet.
Is there any way to have different settings on a per product basis? I'm thinking the only way is to give those really "unusual products" that have different shipping needs their own store.
For example: Assuming that I have multisite and one of my customers has their own store. Say they sell lip balm, cards and plants. Lip balm and cards could be mailed together, but plants will be mailed in spring on a different date. Should the plants have their own store? In other words this person would have 2 stores?
Second – I'd like to use chained payments. Is that available on a regular wordpress install or do I need multisite for that. I read that chained payments were not available with the global shopping cart. Would this mean that a customer would have to check out separately from each store on my site?
Would each store be able to use different themes?
If I used a multisite install with stores that have different domains vs. stores that have different paths would one choice be better than the other for solving the above problems? Which one should I choose? I'm leaning towards a "path" style install.
It is not clear to me if a person needs to purchase different domain names for the different stores?
The large majority of my potential users are not at all computer savvy. This means that I will probably have to do almost everything for them. This is why I have not used multisite before. Right now each person just has a static wordpress page and product pages and I pay them the old fashioned way with a check. This will of course become problematic as we grow.
One more thing about chained payments, I will go to paypal and read more about that before acting, but do you know if pay pal charges you twice; once when the customer pays you and once when you pay the store owner? Or is it one charge?
Maybe I'm missing the boat entirely and there is a better way to solve these problems. I'd love to hear any suggestions you may have.

Miami Central, which finished the regular season ranked #7 in the High School Football America Top 25, won its third straight Florida 6A title Saturday, which should help the Rockets improve upon that #7 ranking when our final Top 25 comes out on December 21st. Central (13-1) beat Armwood (14-1) 24-10 behind Anthony Jones 199 yards rushing and three touchdowns.
Miami Central's only two losses over the last two seasons have been to Booker T. Washington, which last week won the state's 4A title last week. BTW ended the regular season ranked #3 in the HSFA Top 25, which keeps in a position to win our "mythical" national championship.

We Have a New Tractor!
Last year, we saw the end of the big red tractor that plowed the fields and sculpted the beds. We were not sure what to do and were looking at renting tractors as we needed them. Months of research later, we decided on the BCS 749 with electric start.
BCS tractors are the vegetable farmer's go-to work horse and are used in many small acreage applications. The small size and heavy duty engine make it ideal for bed maintenance and landscaping tasks around the farm. It has a collection of attachments that customize it to whatever job is at hand. The machine is Italian made and should last us for a very long time!
To read more about BCS Tractors check out their website: bcsamerica.com
CTE can be reached at: 956 North J Street, Tulare, CA 93274 - 5596882505
We purchased our BCS from Seth of California Turf Equipment & Supply. Seth did a wonderful job helping us order the equipment. He also allowed us to rent a BCS to try out while we waited for our tractor to be shipped. The rental was very powerful and was perfect for clearing our the cover crop in the Dapple Fire Pluot orchard.
The BCS will be used to clear our summer beds in the fall and prep our winter beds. We look forward to using this invaluable tool to its fullest extent!
9/22/2018 10:08:12 am
I am happy to see that BCS tractors has its new tractor. This is definitely a good thing because it can help them to do more things that are related with their job. At the same time, they will become even more productive. Since you mentioned it here, I am pretty sure that more clients will message Seth of California Turf Equipment & Supply and ask something about the new tractor they are offering. I am pretty sure it's something great that we should all look forward to!

Balachandar, VibhuVignesh and Hasan, Sulaiman and Kumar, Ashwin and Kandasamy, Ramasamy (2015) Heat transfer of nanofluid through boundary layer stagnation flow over shrinking surface influencing injection and variable stream conditions. In: International Engineering Research and Innovation Symposium 2015 (IRIS), 12–13 September 2015, Putrajaya, Malaysia.
Download (1MB)
In this paper, we analysed convective boundary layer stagnation point flow of nanofluid influencing by injectionand magnetic field over a porous shrinking surface is investigated numerically and simulated with Maple 18 Software. Thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects are included in the nanofluid model.Governing nonlinear boundary layer equations for momentum, energy and continuity equations are transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary coupled differential equations by using similarity transformations. The effects of physical parameters on nanofluid (Water and Gaseous) are analysed. It is found that for a certain range of injection process, solutions exists for velocity flow, temperature flow and volume concentration. It tends to provide solutions for skin friction, rate of heat and rate of mass transfer of nanofluids (Water and Gaseous).

Cambridge University hosts seminar on teaching Ukrainian language in the UK
Cambridge Ukrainian Studies held a two-day workshop entitled 'Teaching Ukrainian Language in the United Kingdom: Addressing the Challenges' on 6-7 September 2013, at Robinson College, University of Cambridge.
The workshop, which was led by Marta Jenkala, Lector in Ukrainian at Cambridge, consisted of 10 presentations by Ukrainian language teachers and trainers from across the UK, as well those involved in the promotion of Ukrainian language learning and teaching. Jocelyn Wyburd, Director of the Language centre at University of Cambridge, made the keynote presentation on 'Setting the context of language teaching in the UK.'
The course was attended by practitioners and training providers across all sectors, including higher education, continuing and community education, public service and NGOs. The workshop brought together and provided a discussion forum for those involved in, and committed to, the teaching of Ukrainian as a foreign, second or heritage language.
Questions that were discussed included:
What are the challenges of teaching Ukrainian today?
What should be taught and with what aim?
Who is learning Ukrainian in the UK and for what purposes?
How is the language taught and how can teaching be enhanced?
To what extent is teaching being informed by research into language pedagogy?
What resources are available and what others are needed?
Is consideration given, in the teaching process, to the ways in which present-day learners access information?
What methods of assessment and accreditation are available and appropriate? ·
What can be learned, in the Ukrainian context, from the experience of other 'less commonly taught languages'?
'This great workshop brought together remarkable individuals who are all passionate about promoting and teaching Ukrainian language in the UK. A truly excellent event put together by the brilliant team at Cambridge Ukrainian Studies,' commented Andy Hunder, Director of the Ukrainian Institute in London.
Adult and student courses are available in a number of locations across the UK, including Cambridge University, University College London School of Slavonic and East European Studies and the Ukrainian Institute in London.

I hate real headbands because they always feel like they are pinching my head, but knit and crocheted headbands I can get behind (I actually just made myself a finger-crocheted headband that was super simple and is really cute and comfortable if you want to check it out).
Mama in a Stitch has a great knitting pattern for a vintage-style tie headband that's knit in Seed Stitch with little Stockinette ties. You could also work it in Garter Stitch if you wanted to make it even easier.
All you need to know to knit this is knitting, purling, make 1 and knit 2 together. It's really simple shaping, I promise.
These would make great gifts for anyone who likes to keep their hair out of their face, and they don't take long so you can knit a bunch in different colors to go with all your outfits.
What do you think? I think it's adorable and I want one for me and one for the girl right now.
Looking for more Knitted Headband Patterns? Check these patterns out on Etsy. Headbands are a great gift idea as they knit up fast and are well received by friends and family. Everyone loves wearing Knit headbands right?

An OU researcher has led the review of the relatively new research impact requirement in a new Science and Technology Funding Council (STFC) review published this month (October 2018).
The Open University's Academic Lead for Engaged Research, Professor Richard Holliman, led the review, Pathways to Excellence in Public Engagement (PEPE), on behalf of STFC and questioned whether the peer review system that underpins the relatively new impact requirement for publicly-funded research consistently identifies and supports excellence.
The review draws on evidence from: a review of planning documents, alongside impact data submitted to Researchfish; and analysis of the views of the STFC community with respect to the planning, assessment, monitoring and reporting of Pathways to Impact Planning.
The 'impact agenda' has been part of the UK's research landscape for a little over eight years. Whilst the review explored the work of STFC researchers, Professor Holliman argues that the findings of the review have implications for researchers working in all domains.
"We have found that, to some degree, all aspects of Pathways to Impact – planning, assessment, monitoring and reporting – are struggling to consistently deliver rigorous, well-resourced programmes of impact-generating activity," said Professor Holliman. "Given the challenges identified in the PEPE Report it is also important to note, therefore, that each of these issues can be resolved. To this, end, we have engaged with representatives from the STFC Community to identify recommendations and draft an action plan to improve the peer review system that underpins pathways to impact."
A series of recommendations and an action plan were developed with representatives from the STFC community. In particular, they highlight that comprehensive, upstream, tailored planning needs to become an essential requirement for all funded Pathways to Impact Plans. To achieve this goal, clear and consistent advice and guidance for researchers is required to improve the planning phase. In turn, this needs to be matched by a rigorous, consistent and transparent process of assessment and feedback for successful and unsuccessful applications. To make this work, assessment panels require routine access to relevant expertise to make high-quality assessments and offer constructive feedback.
The report concludes by arguing that the focus for change should fall on improving the planning and assessment phases of Pathways to Impact Planning. Addressing these aspects is essential to ensure that the ensuing monitoring and reporting phases will also be improved in the future.
If the Planning and Assessment phases can be improved, researchers will gain confidence that they need to 'up their game' to ensure that stakeholders, end-users and members of the public can engage with relevant aspects of research in ways that are meaningful to them.

BRISBANE, Australia (AP) — Andrea Petkovic and Angelique Kerber had straight-set wins on Saturday to give Germany a 2-0 lead over Australia in their Fed Cup semifinal and primed to reach its first final in 21 years.
Petkovic opened with a 6-1, 7-6 (7) win over Sam Stosur while top-ranked German player Kerber had little difficulty beating Casey Dellacqua 6-1, 6-0 in 51 minutes on outdoor hard courts at Pat Rafter Arena.
The reverse singles will be played on Sunday, followed by doubles.
Ashleigh Barty and Dellacqua, who reached three Grand Slam doubles finals last year, are expected to play doubles for Australia. But unless Stosur and Dellacqua both win their reverse singles matches against Kerber and Petkovic respectively, the doubles match will be meaningless.
Germany is trying to reach its first Fed Cup final since 1992, when it beat Spain for the title with now-captain Barbara Rittner in the side.
"I am very proud of my team, they played two great matches," Rittner said. "The first was a lot closer than it looked, and the second Angelique just played a great match. I didn't expect us to be up 2-0 , I just wished ..."
Stosur once again had difficulty playing before her home crowd, where she admits she feels extra pressure. But the 2011 U.S. Open champion and 2010 French Open finalist is having a tough time everywhere this year, only making it past the third round at one tournament.
"I was kind of nervous but I just got through it," Petkovic said.
Unforced errors by Stosur handed Petkovic the first set, but the Australian led 5-3 in the second before allowing the German player to level at 6-6. In the tiebreaker, Petkovic had three match points at 6-3 but Stosur fought off those and another before Petkovic clinched it.
Petkovic suggested Stosur faced a "tougher mental state" before the home crowd, but the Australian said it didn't affect her.
"I wasn't overly nervous," Stosur said. "She came out hitting the ball very clean and deep — that puts you on the back foot a little bit. At least I was able to fight back after a lopsided first set, but at the end of the day that doesn't really count for much."
Two years ago, Australia upset Germany 3-2 in Stuttgart in a World Group encounter in which Stosur won both her singles matches.
"It was a very good match for me, I was there from the first point," Kerber said of her easy win over Dellacqua. "It was a great feeling to go on court up 1-0, and now I'm even happier it's 2-0."
It is Australia's first semifinal appearance since 1993, and now against heavy odds, the country is trying to win the Fed Cup for the first time since 1974 when seven-time Grand Slam singles champion Evonne Goolagong led Australia to victory.
Czech Republic and Italy are playing in the other semifinal this weekend. The final is Nov. 8-9.

TheWestpac Bankhas confirmed today that it will pay $900 million to buy theBT Financial Groupfrom its US parent, the Principal Financial Group, in a move that will see BT chief executive Ian Martin, chief investment officer Gary Symons and chief operating officer Graeme Fowler leave the funds management business.
Peter Martin, the chief executive ofSagitta Rothschild Wealth Management, which Westpac purchased for $323 million only four months ago, will also leave the bank under a reorganised group structure to allow for the integration of BT.
The announcement, which ends a week of press speculation about Westpac's intentions for BT, will make Westpac the fourth largest retail funds manager in the country with more than $30 billion of funds under management.
Westpac group executive of wealth management David Clarke said today the acquisition of BT met the bank's previously stated ambition to add a market leading investment platform to its list of products.
BT's wrap platform, with $6.5 billion under administration, is one of the largest wrap account products in the country.
"We acquired [Rothschild] to obtain a rated asset management capability and access to the external financial advisor network. However, as we stated at the time, it did not address our need for a more functional and scalable administration platform for both the retail market and for corporate superannuation," Clarke says.
As well as BT's wrap business, the deal announced today will result in Westpac acquiring BT's distribution, margin lending and corporate superannuation businesses, as well as part of its investment management capabilities.
The Iowa based Principal group, which paid $2.1 billion for BT in 1999, will keep BT's property trusts and direct property management capabilities. Principal will also continue to manage the international equity and fixed interest funds acquired by Westpac from BT.
As part of the integration of BT, Westpac's wealth management business will be re-structured into four separate business units - an asset accumulation business, an investment management business, a life insurance business and the group's New Zealand business.
Rob Coombe, head of retail at BT, will head the asset accumulation business, including responsibility over all investment products, distribution, the BT Wrap, corporate superannuation and margin lending.
Guy Strapp, currently managing director of investments at Sagitta Rothschild, will head the investment management unit, while the current head of BT Financial Group in New Zealand, Craig Stobo, will head the New Zealand wealth management business.
All three will report to David Clarke, who up until now managed Westpac's consumer and business banking operations.
A statement released by Principal today says Ian Martin, Symons and Fowler will leave BT to pursue other opportunities.
A statement released by Westpac says Peter Martin, who negotiated the sale of Rothschild to the bank, will leave the group within the next few months.
According to reports, Sagitta Rothschild, which changed its name from Rothschild Australia Asset Management only last month, will change its branding once again to operate under the BT banner.

'What would my name be when I become a mom?,' asked IC a few nights ago.
'Would I remain as IC or would I get to be called mama only?,' she continued.
I told her she would remain IC. But that her kids would then call her mama, if that's what she wanted.
What made her ask? Because she dont really hear me being called my real name. My husband mostly calls me 'schatz' or 'mama'. And since IC's learning to write, when she ask her sister on how she should write my name, her big sister, MC; would mostly tell her the spelling of 'mama'.
In fact, MC only learned that I have another name when I became their teacher in playtime English in her kindergarten :D

Eastern, Kitara win Airtel Rising Stars
- Written by Elly Kyeyune
After traversing all regions in the country, this year's Airtel-sponsored Airtel Rising Stars (ARS) football tournament climaxed with a grand finale on September 7 at Makerere University Business School grounds, Nakawa.
In the end, it was Eastern and Kitara regions that walked away with the top honours, which included cash, medals and trophies. Eastern region clinched the boys' category trophy after beating former champions Kampala 3-2 on post-match penalties. They settled for a goalless draw in normal time.
Goalkeeper Ashraf Mwabye was the hero for Eastern as he saved two penalty kicks. Mwabye was also named the best goalkeeper of the tournament.

The triumph was sweet revenge for Eastern, who suffered a 1-3 loss to Kampala in the group stages of the competition. Eastern scraped through the group stage at the expense of West Nile, who fell 0-2 to lowly-rated North East in the deciding match. They progressed to the final with an emphatic 3-1 victory over Kitara region. Kitara were drafted into the semifinals after Northern, the would-be opponents for Eastern, were disqualified for fielding ineligible players.
Meanwhile, Kitara region beat Eastern 2-0 to retain the girls' title. Kitara fielded the same side that won the 2018 title in Fort Portal, save for the addition of at least three players. Winners in both categories received Shs 7 million while runners-up got Shs 5 million.
In his remarks, Airtel Uganda Ltd managing director VG Somasekhar said the telecom company remains committed towards developing talent across the country through the annual tournament.
"As Airtel, we a proud of the journey we have moved so far since the start of the tournament in 2011. We believe this is the best way we can give back to Ugandans for the support they have shown us," he said.
He added: "We are committed to giving back to this country through the game of football and we hope to see you next year, even bigger and better."
Fufa president Moses Magogo presided over the finals. He hailed Airtel Uganda Ltd for their consistent job of helping the federation in youth development projects and girls' football development.
"I would thank Airtel for the continued support to the game. Since your arrival, the game of football in this country has changed tremendously. There are many first-time things we have seen in this period; as Fufa, we promise to work harder," Magogo said.
Airtel Rising Stars remains the only local nationwide underage tournament in which the winning team gets prize money starting from region where winners walked away with Shs 1.5m this year.
Since its inception in 2011, the annual tournament has nurtured hundreds of footballers into international stars in the professional leagues.

Think about your organization acquiring a new piece of equipment--whether that's a brand new apparatus such as the latest handheld thermal imager, 2-way radio, body cam, or portable fingerprint scanner. Would you allow your personnel to operate these without first training them properly, being able to track their proficiency over time, establishing proper policies and procedures, knowing the whereabout of these items, understanding in detail when and how they were used, and auditing usage as needed? Of course not. That could cause all sorts of problems right out of the gate, and wreak outright havoc--or worse, lead to injuries and lawsuits from their improper use. You would make all efforts to ensure the right policies, systems, and training were in place for proper accountability prior to deploying these tools widely in the field. You would make sure all your bases are covered from the outset, and that makes perfect sense.
All this may seem quite obvious, especially if you are a company or chief officer, supervisor, commander, program manager or any other leader who may be held responsible for the actions of your team.
The unfortunate reality is that as UAS are increasingly adopted into public safety organizations nationwide, we are seeing the responsible approach that is normally taken to deploy other equipment simply being ignored when it comes to UAS. As powerful a tool as UAS can be to your organization, without the right platform in place ahead of time--to act as your "insurance policy"--these valuable programs could instead end up being very costly, and ultimately even shut down.
Today's UAS are relatively inexpensive to acquire and easy to use, and so may not be thought of as the potential life-saving tool they actually are. These powerful data and image gathering vehicles are too often considered tangential to the mission, or even worse, just kids' toys, that therefore do not require the same attention and vigilance as the organization's other tools. This thought process is incomplete and misleading, and quite possibly very dangerous too. The FAA recognizes these aerial platforms as "aircraft" and requires pilots flying in public safety operations to be a certified remote pilot (as a non-hobbyist). Like other manned aviation assets or emergency response vehicles, certain considerations must be taken into account such as training, tracking, liability coverage, and instituting proper policies. There are very few people experienced and knowledgeable in both drone operations and public safety. Yet we desperately need the ability to anticipate and prevent the potential pitfalls faced by these programs. This transformative technology is setting a precedent for the future of public safety operations, as usage in more real-life missions reveal the true benefits from the aerial data and unique situational awareness they provide. As such, your public safety organization needs to approach UAS with the same care and diligence as you do with any of your other critical equipment. This includes making sure your UAS program can start and scale with full transparency and accountability from day one. The Wild West era of unstructured, ad hoc drone operations is quickly passing and, in turn, is ushering in a new age supported at the highest levels of government.
DroneSense: Your UAS "Insurance Policy"
The DroneSense platform is designed specifically for public safety and emergency response organizations, with many of your vital considerations in mind. We partner directly with public safety organizations to understand requirements, hurdles and challenges around the multiple dimensions of a UAS program. We then use this regular feedback to design and constantly improve our platform so it acts as your "insurance policy." This allows you to build and manage a robust UAS program with full accountability, transparency, and compliance--just as you would seek out for any other new equipment in your organization.
Our feature-rich platform consists of 3 components: i) Management, ii) Flight Control, and iii) Command Center, with data flowing seamlessly between each area. Easily tap into all aspects of your program with features that include:
The Big Picture
Utilization of UAS by public safety organizations makes sense from many angles and hence, adoption is spreading quickly nationwide. However, not having a single platform that fully addresses the importance aspects of a UAS program from the start is akin to playing with fire; just as not using readily-available, inexpensive, off-the-shelf UAS in operations to help save more lives could also be considered a huge missed opportunity. Adopting UAS for regular use by your organization must be done with full accountability and compliance in mind--you need that "insurance policy" to properly integrate this game-changing technology into your operations.
DroneSense is here to help.

The philosophy of Tumpeng is related to the geographical condition of Indonesia,
especially Java as a fertile island with numerous
mountains and volcanos. Tumpeng dated back to ancient Indonesian tradition that

Interview – Jake Nielsen – 'On Hold' – A Short Film
Interview – Jake Nielsen – 'On Hold' – A Short Film
Director Jake Nielsen's On Hold tackles the subject of following your dreams and won an Oscar qualifying award at the very first festival it entered. The film stars Madeline Jones (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child) and Jo Turner (All Saints).
A short film-musical about the choice between following your dreams, and making next week's rent.
Jake Nielsen is a Composer, Writer and Director for stage and screen. His debut musical, The Atheist's Guide to the Galaxy, with co-writer Matthew Predny, won the Audience Choice at the Sydney Fringe Festival (2012). His musical short film Did I Tell You 'Bout Jasper? won the Audience Choice at the World of Women's Cinema Festival (2015) and was an official selection at the Byron Bay International Film Festival, where he was nominated for 'Young Australian Film- Maker of the Year' (2015). Jake co-wrote and directed the short film musical On Hold.
The film also stars Ali Aitken (Macbeth), Julian Ramundi (Much Ado About Nothing), Josephine Starte (Trade), Madeline Clouston (The Atheist's Guide to the Galaxy), Sean Perez (Rake) and Veronica Clavijo.
The beautiful cinematography was created by Jack McAvoy, the music was composed by Jake Nielsen and Matt Predney, who also was the films musical director. The film was co-produced by Alicia Easaw-Mamutil, Tom Montefiore and Grace Rein.
This magical film won the won the Academy® Accredited Virgin Australia Award for Best Australian Short Film at Flickerfest and was a finalist in the Dendy awards at the Sydney Film Festival.
To begin with, tell us about your latest film 'On Hold'…
On Hold is a musical that follows Gabby, a low-level call centre employee who wants to be composer. It's about the difficulty of following the path you want in a world that's designed to ease you into giving up. It's about the post university slump where you realise you aren't special and life is much more confusing than you'd thought…Except it also has a catchy song and dance numbers.
Where did the idea come from? How did you get involved with the film?
I wrote the film when I was working at a particularly hellish call centre for a predatory lender. It was originally so I could find an outlet for all the things I hated about the place. Every time something enraging or ridiculous happened, I'd go home and write it up in some way. Eventually I started to like what I'd done and so I worked into a larger musical.
Tell us about the cast, who is starring?
Our protagonist Gabby is played by Madeleine Jones. She's an Australian Musical theatre and film performer who volunteered her services (it was a super low budget so the whole cast and crew did also) We got extremely lucky and grabbed a rising star about one millisecond before she would have been way too busy for us. She's currently staring in "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" in Australia.
What are your influences as a filmmaker?
I love golden age musicals in terms of aesthetics' (and content obviously) but as a young filmmaker my influences were always darker. The films of Alfred Hitchcock were what made me fall in love with cinema and realise how powerful it is.
Where there any significant issues throughout the films production? How did you overcome these difficulties?
We made what was essentially a $250,000 film for $16,000 so there were so many hundreds of issues. But ultimately we always got through in the end (often by the skin of our teeth) by having incredible producers. Ultimately I think clarity of vision inspires everyone to work a little harder and put up with a little more.
What advice would you give any up-and-coming filmmakers, trying to crack the industry?
I would still consider myself an up-and-comer despite the success of the film so maybe…. Everything happens slower than you want it to and you might want to get used to being poor for a long time. But if you're still okay with that, then just keep writing/shooting etc.
When and where can we expect to see 'On Hold'?
We have another 6 months or so of our festival run. So unless we have some massive Oscars win (potential voters I'm talking to you), then we should have the film online after the festival run. We are hoping to release a soundtrack in the few months.
What is the next step for you? Do you have any other films or projects in production?
I am currently working on a stage musical called 'Miss Westralia' with Madeline Clouston (Sophie in On Hold). The showis about the very first winner of the Miss Australia competition. It will be in Perth next year for a 4-week season and we are planning on touring it the following year. We were in talks for a motion picture version but these things take time, and also take your exec not deciding to quit show business to run off and raise a family.
