Humphrey School looks for innovation, creativity in state government awards
The Humphrey School of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota is now accepting entries for its fourth annual Minnesota State Government Innovation Awards competition.
The awards recognize state government entities that create greater accountability, foster collaboration, improve efficiency, use technology creatively, reduce costs, and improve services to consumers.
Interest in the awards program has increased since it began in 2014; last year, judges considered 68 submissions from various state entities. Ten winners are chosen each year, and the top three projects are highlighted in promotional videos, produced for each organization's use.
One agency recognized last year is the Minnesota Department of Transportation, which had two of the top three entries. One was its use of drones to inspect bridges. The drones cost significantly less to operate, are less disruptive to traffic, and decrease safety risks for inspectors.
Another top entry from last year was the Department of Natural Resources Parks and Trails Division, for the development of ParkFinder, an interactive online tool that makes it easier for users to search the offerings of Minnesota's 75 state parks.
"These state agencies demonstrated exceptional innovation within their organizations," says Jay Kiedrowski, senior fellow at the Humphrey School. "We hope these awards will encourage an environment of experimentation and creativity throughout state government."
Nominations are being accepted from May 10 until June 7.
The innovation work described in the entry must take place in Minnesota and must be underway or have taken place within the past two years. Entries must demonstrate growth beyond the conceptual state, showing progress and impact.
Applicants may include, but are not limited to, state agencies, regional policymaking bodies, judicial or legislative branch departments, and statewide education bodies such as Minnesota State or the University of Minnesota.
The winners will be chosen in June and formally recognized at an awards ceremony on July 27.
The State Government Innovation Awards are sponsored by the Humphrey School of Public Affairs' Public and Nonprofit Leadership Center, with support from the Bush Foundation.

Starts tomorrow!
We're celebrating independence day by going on another awesome motorcycle touring adventure. We've both wanted to ride out west for a long time, so this summer, we're making it happen. While we've technically been planning this trip for months, and have lots of destinations in mind, this is our vacation, so we're not beholden to any particular schedule or destination. Mostly, we'll try to find awesome roads to ride (and stay off the interstate as much as possible), hopefully visit a few friends, and go watch some racing. As previously mentioned, one of our few pre-trip commitments was buying tickets to the Pikes Peak race in Colorado Springs. As of tonight, that is re-scheduled for August 12. We'll see how we feel when we get closer to that time, but right now the plan is to stay out on the road until then so we can go to the race. For now, we're going to make our way across the country, with the goal of seeing some friends in Seattle.
While this is the largest trip we've ever done, I think we're ready. The Nova Scotia adventure in 2010 was about three weeks, and we both agreed then that we could have kept going. Since then we've gotten two new bikes, and have an even greater desire to explore by motorcycle. This is going to be awesome.
Happy fourth!

October 29, 2018. The following letter was recently published in the Citrus County Chronicle.
Shame on the Chronicle for the glaring omission from its October 17 Opinion endorsing Ralph Massullo, Jr. over Paul Reinhardt as State Representative for Florida House District 34.
While providing a good overview of the candidates positions on various issues, it failed to mention their positions on the proposed action to bring toxic sludge from Fort Myers for treatment in Crystal River.
Reinhardt has expressed strong opposition to this action while Massullo is one of only two county officials (the other being County Commissioner Jimmie Smith) who do not oppose it.
Voters may not agree with some of Reinhardt's positions, however, he seems to be a strong advocate for clean water and the environment. They may also appreciate Massullo's advocacy and past efforts on behalf of water and the environment. However, voters should have been informed that their positions relative to the toxic sludge issue was considered by the Chronicle in its endorsement.
It could be a game changer for some in determining which of the two to vote for.
Omitting this issue from the Opinion was inexcusable. Given the recent extensive coverage of the sludge issue, it's hard to believe it was inadvertent.

Coral Statement Necklaces...
One of the issues of the other necklaces, which might have contributed to them breaking is that they were strung too tightly and didn't have spacer beads. Without the spacer beads, the necklaces were stiff and didn't drape as nicely as they could. So, between the coral sticks, I used some "ruby quartz crystal" beads that I've been hoarding. I've also heard them called, "red velvet" beads, but they are just a faceted leaded glass crystal that has a deep red color that deepens in the shadows and sparkles in the light.
I'm quite pleased with the result! Even better, so is the customer!

Nightmares about globalisation
03.09.07 Publication: Asahi Shimbun
There are two popular nightmares about globalisation, and sadly neither is quite foolish enough to be easily proven false. Over the next year, both are going to be tested by events in the world economy—especially by the financial turmoil that woke the world out of its usual August slumber.
The nightmare that emerges most directly out of that turmoil has already featured in some of the market commentary. It consists of a fear that with open capital markets in most countries around the world, financial distress in one will lead to financial distress in all of them.
Hence stockmarkets in Asia, Europe and
In 1998, when the East Asian financial crisis spread to
Observant readers may have noticed that it didn't happen. The nightmare was believable, given the way markets reacted in the first few months of the crisis. But in fact, although there were some worldwide effects there was no worldwide collapse.
In that crisis, it turned out that, contrary to Mr Soros's fears, globalisation had a stabilising effect, not a destabilising one. In particular, the continued economic boom in
The question is: will this happen again? This time, the origin of the turmoil is in
That, however, has always been true: when
Moreover, even if credit losses are painful for some banks, there will be no shortage of capital around the world. The real danger is of a loss of trust by lenders. But that is unlikely to take hold on a global scale, with so many different borrowers to choose from. Capital will be reallocated, helping to counteract the slump.
That is an optimistic prediction; we shall have to wait and see whether it comes true. We mustn't forget the second nightmare, however. For there is a danger that it could combine with the first, to make things worse.
The other nightmare about globalisation is the idea that it destroys jobs and incomes in the richer countries, especially of the poorest and least skilled, as low-cost competitors in
They also need to elect a new president, in the
Now, however, the financial turmoil that has arisen from
In principle, these nightmares are contradictory: if everyone suffers because of connected capital markets, then the pressure on American jobs will be eased by that process, not worsened. It will also be better to solicit Chinese investment, not rebuff it. Logic and rationality are not, however, the finest features of election campaigns, nor of political discourse in general.
It will be hard to prevent trade being blamed for job losses. But to avoid a really damaging backlash against globalisation, we will need to promote the benefits of open capital markets with great vigour—as long as, during the coming year, globalisation does turn out to be stabilising, rather than the reverse.

I need input!! I am DESPERATE
E-P replied to carlyma's topic in GRE/GMAT/etcIt kind of seems to me like you're stressing yourself out, which is affecting your performance. if you do end up taking it again, I would stop all studying a few days ahead of time, do some relaxation exercises, etc. What program are you applying for? Do you have a sense of what you "need?"
Should I change my major and give up on SLP
E-P replied to Penelopepie's topic in Speech-Language PathologyGrad schools in general take multiple factors into consideration. For example, your essays, when you apply, will indicate that you found your home in CSD/SLP, which will explain your poor first year performance. Furthermore, you can always retake some of the classes you didn't do well in your first year, which will boost your GPA. So I agree with Moods' advice to talk to SLP people specifically, but it's been my experience that grad schools "get" that one's college experience may be varied. You might not get into the best of the best school, but you'll get into a perfectly good school all the same.

About NCA, ICA student membership
E-P replied to sanchxuan's topic in CommunicationDepends on where you're at. I bought it when I started my PhD, but my program paid for it. So I wouldn't get it unless you're: 1. Planning on going to a conference AND 2. Getting your PhD. If you are getting your PhD, I definitely would also go to one/both of them if your department has a travel budget for grad students. That said, being on the mailing lists is free, and those are good. So sign up for the email lists.
Advice on 3rd recommender
E-P replied to ergative's topic in Letters of RecommendationI didn't have any recommendations from my undergrad institution, nor would I have been able to since I graduated 13 years before I was applying. I've never heard of that as a requirement, or even a recommendation, unless you're going from your undergrad degree STRAIGHT into a PhD program. But it sounds like you already have a master's. So yeah, you don't need one from undergrad.

Which Masters am I eligible for?
E-P replied to Tea Addict's topic in Computer ScienceI agree 100% with Warelin. There's no point in getting a master's degree unless your specific career goals require it, or your company will pay for it. I highly recommend going to work for a few years, if you haven't already. It gives you a much better view of what you do (and don't!) want in your career.

Communications/Film/Media Studies PhD Applicants
E-P replied to kp_87's topic in CommunicationHi - welcome! 1. What was your GRE score? 163 verbal, 151 quant, 5.0 writing 2. past college GPA: BA - 3.4. MA - 4.0 3. Did you have any publication experience? Nope 4. Did you have and related work experience in the field of communications/media studies/film? Not directly. But I spent 10+ years in management at various tech companies, which -- given that I'm interested in online communicative communities -- probably helped. 5. What school were you accepted to and what did they offer full funding? I was accepted at Purdue (full funding, guaranteed 4 years, 2 classes each semester), and MSU (full funding, but I declined before I got the details).

Debating options
E-P replied to Zaheersboi's question in Questions and AnswersI would ask, in general, what your goals are. It seems that you've been somewhat directionless since graduation, which is fine -- you're young! It's okay! -- but a graduate degree is a longterm relationship. What are you hoping to get out of it? Where do you want to be when it's over? If you go PhD, what are you wanting to research? If you're going LIS, what are you wanting to do with that (since people with library degrees actually becoming librarians is getting fewer and further in between)? I would say that your first step is some soul searching, and getting a better job. The better job will give you the freedom to go to graduate school because you want to, not because you have to escape your current situation. It will also give you the financial resources to apply (it's expensive!), and to afford to go, since I doubt your MA or MLIS would be funded. Ideally, it would also give you educational benefits - if you get even an entry-level job at a big enough company, you may very well be able to pursue graduate school on their dime. I find that a lot of times in my life when I've been unhappy with my life/job, it's more because I'm unhappy with who I am as a person, not necessarily the situation. It might be worth meditating on whether or not you're happy in your own skin. I call this "Life broken, add more schooling!" Having been there, I don't recommend it. I know this isn't the answer you wanted, and I'm sorry for being the rainy cloud on your parade.

Is writing sample necessary for PhD in Social Psychology?
E-P replied to B1369's topic in Psychology@Hk328 is correct, based on the programs that I saw. Alternatively, if you don't have an academic writing sample in English, you could also translate a chapter or two of your paper into English. You might have to modify the language a bit to get the same nuance (I've heard that Arabic is dense/more detailed than English), but I imagine it would do the trick all the same.
Do new professors get relo budgets?In my previous life, if a company hired a new employee from another part of the country, they would pay relocation costs (typically negotiated based on how valuable the employee was). Is this a Thing in academia? It's a few years away, of course, but should I start saving NOW for what could be a cross-country move, or is it reasonable to expect that a tenure-track assistant professor job would come with a relocation budget?

E-P replied to orange turtle's topic in Officially GradsIs your university an environment where you can discuss the "not cool" aspect with that professor? More than likely, since you're in a field not known for high emotional IQ, he doesn't know how inappropriate the comment is. Alternatively, could you mention it to the Title IX people at your school? Maybe they have suggestions of gentle ways to give him feedback about commenting on women's clothing/style choices? It's shitty that you have to defend yourself against harassment - but this IS harassment. And you shouldn't have to deal with it to go to work.

Hello there!
I don't know about you but me and M are both super Harry Potter fans, we absolutely love it and can't get enough. We love the books, the films, and have been known to attend Harry Potter parties…nerds!
I also love books in general, and bookshelves and I need to do everything I can to fill mine with the prettiest books in existence. You have probably seen the most recent adaptation to come out but I couldn't resist sharing as it is just so beautiful.
Meet the illustrated edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone:
Don't panic, I won't be showing you all the pages as I would hate to ruin the surprise of how beautiful they are! But I have taken a few snaps to make you understand how perfect it is and how you need it in your collection!
I thought this would be another book with a few images in it, beautiful images but just a couple here and there.
I have to say I was extremely impressed that every page has either a scene, a character or just general doodles around the text to bring it to life.
Each of the chapters has a really detailed doodle to introduce them and it just makes me want to draw my own and colour it all in!
Even if you are not as much of a fan as we are, you cannot deny that the book is gorgeous and is a great gift for children and adults.
I cannot wait for the next book to come out and all the rest so that I can complete this collection too!
The RRP of the book is £30 but I believe that you can buy this from Amazon for £14 – which let's face it is a wonderful bargain.
What do you think of Harry Potter? Do you love books like me?
It's my absolute dream to have a display of books that makes it onto Pinterest!

British Airways Frequent Flyer Club Members Receive Preliminary Approval for $27M Settlement
On May 29, 2018, Eastern District of New York Federal Magistrate Cheryl L. Pollak granted preliminary approval of a $27 million class settlement between British Airways and a class of British Airways Executive Club members.
The suit was filed in November 2012 with class certification granted in March 2017 by U.S. District Judge Raymond J. Dearie. The case involves the British Airways Executive Club program contract that was in effect from November 9, 2006 through April 17, 2013. Plaintiffs allege that the contract subjected Executive Club members to unreasonably high fuel surcharges that did not directly correlate with actual gas prices. In court documents, the plaintiffs argue that the surcharges are based on British Airways' cost of fuel in 2003-2004.
The settlement is comprised of two parts: British Airways frequent miles and a separate cash settlement. Former Executive Club members are only eligible to receive cash settlements. Current Executive Club members will automatically receive British Airways frequent flyer miles in their British Airways accounts. British Airways has agreed to credit approximately 2,228,677,500 frequent flyer miles to the settlement, which would equate to about $63 million. Current Club members may also receive a cash settlement if they file a written election for the cash option. The cash option will pay class members 16% of the total fuel surcharges that class members incurred during 2006-2013. The final approval hearing has been scheduled for July 27, 2018.
The case is: Dover et al. v. British Airways PLC, Case No.:1:12-cv-05567, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.
Counsel Financial provides working capital credit lines exclusively for the plaintiffs' bar in all states except California, where credit lines are issued by California Attorney Lending.

Warren Beatty has recalled the 'chaos' surrounding that massive blunder at the Oscars this year.YouTuber Marques Brownlee urges fans to 'actively work against racism'
It's become possibly the greatest/most cringe-worthy telly cock up in recent years.
Actors Beatty and Faye Dunaway took to the stage at the 2017 Oscars in February to announce who would be taking home the biggest prize of best film.
Unfortunately La La Land was declared the winner, but it wasn't until the cast and crew – including stars Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, and director Damien Chazelle – took to the stage that it was revealed the wrong name had been read out, and Moonlight had actually won the gong.
It made headlines for weeks afterwards, with the PricewaterhouseCoopers accountants involved in the mix-up won't be allowed to work at the ceremony again, and the Oscars have since decided to tighten up the rules, including a ban on electronic devices backstage, to avoid such a mistake in the future.
Warren gave his version of events when he appeared on The Graham Norton Show on Friday.
Agreeing it was 'the TV moment of the century', he said: 'I thought "Maybe this is a misprint", and then I shouldn't foul up the show just because someone made a little error.
My instructions were take the envelope when walked out – I couldn't have it before that – then I go out, then I say something and then open the envelope and then I give it to Faye, and she then says what it says.
So how exactly did the La La Land/Moonlight Best Picture mix-up happen?
Only two people actually know the contents of the Academy Awards' envelopes. These two people are the official vote-counters, Martha Ruiz and Brian Cullinan, and they work as accountants for LA auditors PricewaterhouseCoopers.
They stand at either side of the stage in the wings and hand the envelopes to the guest announcer just before they head to the stage. This is the first time the envelopes leave their possession.
However, there are duplicates of the envelopes and while Emma Stone has revealed that she was holding one of the envelopes, Warren and Faye were mistakenly given the duplicate.
Cue the gaffe.
'It looked like La La Land. I guess you could say it was chaos [afterwards].'
When host Graham Norton suggested it must have been the only talking point for the rest the night, Warren quipped: 'No that's not true, people talk about themselves.'
PwC accountant Brian Cullinan got into trouble for tweeting a picture of Emma Stone backstage moments before he was meant to hand over the envelope for best film.
The question no one has asked yet is – who is going to make the movie of this?

Most beautiful black sand beaches
Black sand beaches are unique and incomparable with its special charm. Many travelers and tourists strive every year to visit all the places where they can be found. Indeed, they are numerous and can be seen in almost every continent.
Black sand beaches are historic because they are the result of volcanic activities of the past. In addition, with their extraordinary color, they offer photographs that mark the time. If usually those beaches can be seen in books and magazines, why not change and choose the black sand beach for your next holidays?
Inventory of the best black sand beaches in the world
Dare to change and discover that a black sand beach is different from any other beaches you have seen and it will be an exceptional experience for original photographs and even new sensations. To do this, choose from the following inventory:
- Muriwai: This beach is located in Auckland, New Zealand. It stretches over 60 km and is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.
- Punalu'u: It is located in the famous Hawaiian island that features smooth and homogeneous sands. You can also find endangered animals like the green sea turtle there.
- Vik i Myrdal: The black sand beach runs along the village of Vik, near the cliffs of Mount Reynisfjall. Admittedly, the climate is not always dry; however, the beach offers a heavenly view.
- Perissa: located in the island of Santorini, it is endowed with fine black sand, identical to pepper with the temperature of the warm and limpid water, which caresses the feet and the body.
- Reynisfjara: with an exceptional natural landscape, this beach is a popular place and is famous especially as many passages of series and films are shot on it.
Black sand beaches to see absolutely
If you are used to spending your holidays under the sun in fine white sand beaches, now is the time to discover something else. The black sand beaches stand far above other holiday resorts, offer more peace, and are quiet because there are only few people passing by. For you to relax, the Ajuy Beach in Spain is magical with its attractive geographical location.
In a small village, it is perfect to empty your head and to walk around. Diamond Beach in Iceland is the must-see site for visitors thanks to ice blocks spread all over the beach. The beach of Lovina in Bali is another option with its black sand from the cooled lava of the next volcano mountain. This beach offers relaxation and the possibility to see and get close to dolphins as well as activities like snorkeling for the whole family.
Holidays in one of the black sand beaches in the best conditions
For you to have unforgettable holidays in one of these places, a good organization is important. You will know all the different possibilities for a black sand beach thanks to Opodo, an online travel agency that is part of one of the major international travel groups.
With its experiences and relationship with hotel and travel operators all over the world, Opodo can organize a trip to offer you the best stays including trips, visits, discovery, and all sorts of practical advice.

There are numerous women fans of the "Brit Chic" Sienna Miller but a few on this side of the pond are awareness of her clothing line, Twenty8Twelve.
Named after her birthday-yes, she is a Capricorn just like Kate Moss, Ms. Miller is aware that there are aplenty of women who wants to know how to emulate her urban/bohemian hipster style.
Instead of nabbing pieces from here and there, Ms. Miller and her sister designs and picks the patterns, the silhouettes, and the styles then bring them all under one label so others can dress just like her.
You can dump grandma's reindeer sweater for Sienna's more stylish malachite dress shift for the holidays...

text: What software is best for coloring cad files (elevations of floorplans)? Most architects I know use Photoshop, but isn't illustrator more suited for vector files? illustrator defitanly give you more flexibilty and deal with vectors better. However, there is still a fair amount of work ( line weight, etc. ) that must be done in illustrator. illustrator hands down! but pshop is great for giving an image depth (ie soft shadows, blurs, glows, etc.) yes- exactly- but also quite a fan of vectorworks for the ease of the drawing tools, and tha fact you can easily add colour file, image file and all sorts, and update it sometimes more easily. I generally only use illustrator to really polish and finish a presentation drawing, or improve tha graphic sense and make it look less dull, and obviously its also really good for text and fonts Photoshop – JUST FOR IMAGE MANULATION! Illustrator – Vector based work (including drawings), font based worked, and printed board presentation InDesign – for creating books, journals, and magazines illustrator is the program to use…you can bring dwg's right into it. the layers are presereved [where as if you plot to file to produce an eps, the layers are dissolved and you are left with thousands of lines]…so while drawing in cad you can organize layers depending on linewieghts and then adjust the various layers in illustrator. and the lineweights do carry over, however, some adjustment is usually needed. photoshop is great for added graphics…people, etc. and if you cut out just the image and save it as a png file, you can open it illustrator and just have the image versus a white background as well [if it was a jpg]. I prefer Vectorworks to CAD and find that vectorworks and Illustrator work almost seamlessly together…I will also do renderings in 3d max first and then liven them up in photoshop by giving the renderings more environment, i.e lighting, depth, people, fauna, etc. Is illustrator a new thing for architect? I dont know any architect that uses illustrator. They use mostly cad and photoshop. i've found illustrator to be too much a pain in the ass and limited w/ transparencies, filters, etc. what works best for me is manipulating all line work in autocad and then generating a postscipt file to be opened in photoshop. the lineweights are set and when you open the file in photoshop they are isolated on a seperate layer. rasterizing vector work will only loose quality. By working in Illustrator you are able to keep everything in a vector format. Illustrator is very powerful,you just have to spend the time learning it. I also use freehand and any other program that helps me better achieve my end goal with the highest quality possible. Don't reduce yourself to the programs your comfortable with, rather be willing to learn and explore….coming from the graphic design profession into architecture I am always amazed at the lack of wide software knowledge. Coming into architecture I have used everything from Flash, After Effects, Illustrator, Vectorworks and yes even Corel products…and I have never once felt it to be a negative to know more than one way to skin a cat. Check the following site: Can you achieve the same graphics shown on the left column in illustrator? You can do almost anything, if you are good enough. It's not good for any pixel modifications, like blurring. But for vectors (and Cad is all vectors), it's the only way to go. The big advantange over PS is the flexibility. You can easily change things, just click on it and change the color, stroke, fill pattern, etc. Scaling is also a huge advantage, as mentioned. FYI – I know of NO architecture firm that doesn't use AI. Take a look:http://www.lifeinvector.com/ and if if hasn't been said, ps file are enormous in size reletive to illustrator. ps is not made for this type of work. ps files will lag on large network printing jobs. Text looks like ass…just like in the decription Pete posted. At predocks we do ps work and then export as hi res jpeg and bring into Illustrator or In Design and do all thest and color fields as vector art in those respective programs. Source.

PAS and PPDA has forbidden Gheorghe Petic's lawyer to run for the parliamentary elections
The lawyer of Gheorghe Petic, the leader of Ungheni PPDA headquarter who is accused of sexual harassment is forbidden to run for the elections.
Angela Istrate is being pressed by the members of PAS and PPDA to withdraw from Ialoveni constituency, in order to let Liviu Vovc candidate run.
Within a Facebook post, Angela Istrate wrote that she can't understand the politics of PAS and PPDA, as their bloggers try to denigrate her image. Moreover, the lawyer mentioned that after she applied to CEC, the members of PAS and PPDA called her and suggested to withdraw from the elections, otherwise, she will face the popular judgement.
At the same time, Angela Istrate mentioned that the motto "who is not with us is against us" of Nastase and Sandu will bring them failure. She didn't expect to be attacked by PAS and PPDA.
The lawyer says she knows many people who are disappointed in the politics of PAS and PPDA.
The attacks have been criticized by Viorel Savva, a Moldova who lives in New York. He announced that he will run on the USA, Canada constituency. On his Facebook page, he gave a lesson to the PPDA leader, Andrei Nastase about the Constitution.
"I hope you won't gain a parliament majority. I hope we won't face such a catastrophe", said Viorel Savva, Moldovan who lives in the USA.
Viorel Savva criticized Andrei Nastase for being unconstitutional.
"What does that mean? This is against the law. How can you explain that?", said Savva.

The event went off smoothly, starting with a moving rendition of We are the World and ending with a symbolic display of bubbles.
Date: 13 September 2018 By: Jo Robinson
Viewed: 480
This year, Ridgeway Independent School joined Rise for Climate Change, which saw events taking place all over the globe to support it.
Executive headmaster Bruce Wells opened the event on 7 September with a warm welcome for guests, including representatives from Rise for Climate Change and the local business community. Wells said that it was a huge privilege for Ridgeway schools and the Louis Trichardt community to come together with the rest of the world to try and achieve the same objective for change. He explained that a green economy, as described by the United Nations Environmental Programme, "can be defined as one that results in improved human well-being and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities".
In her welcoming address, Astrid Fourie, the organiser of the event and representing the Eco Gecko Club, said that things such as the burning of fossil fuels, coal for energy, and toxic waste dumps were all releasing large amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and making the earth hotter and hotter. "Right now, our planet is in crisis," she said. "Our world is actually sick and running a very high fever. It is estimated that by the end of this century, we will be two degrees warmer." Astrid finished by saying that "…it is time to say stop. It is time to take action. Today we rise in solidarity with millions of people around the world and make our voices heard."
The children opened the show with a beautiful rendition of We are the World, followed by a play showing how cutting back on fossil-fuel-generated electricity can help the planet, and a final display of traditional dancing that received wild approval from the audience. The event closed with closing remarks from deputy head Mollie Madziva, who said in her invitation to the community to join that "Today's young people face the greatest burden from climate change yet had no hand in creating it. Leadership of youth against crisis is critical, to hold adults and elected officials accountable, to take meaningful action against climate change."
Ridgeway Independent School and Ridgeway College were part of the Global Action Summit held in San Francisco, where a delegation of African leaders from three countries represented the continent. Video footage from the event held at Ridgeway will join the videos and photos of those around the world who took part in Rise for Climate Change 2018.
On 14 September 2018, the petitions signed and collected by Ridgeway and all the other schools, municipalities, businesses, and civil societies around the world will be presented at the Global Climate Action Summit. Astrid encourages members of the community to follow the Rise for Climate Change movement online and support both Ridgeway and their cause. "Next year, petitions will be localised," she said. "The school will be approaching actual companies that pollute to encourage them to find cleaner ways to protect our children's future."
Jo joined the Zoutpansberger and Limpopo Mirror in 2018 pursuing a career in journalism after many years of writing fiction and non-fiction for other sectors.

Ridgeway pupils put on a show of traditional dancing with a modern twist. Recorded on the day, these videos will join others from around the world as part of the school's protest against fossil fuels.
These young traditional dancers almost stole the show with their "dancing to save the planet"
Deputy head Molly Madziva said that Ridgeway was a part of the worldwide day of action to demand that local leaders commit to building a fossil-fuel-free world that works for all.
Executive headmaster Bruce Wells said that it was a huge privilege for the Ridgeway schools and the Louis Trichardt community to come together with the rest of the world to try and achieve the same objective for a change.

Reviews of Ras Kutani
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Ras Kutani review
We were driven from Dar Es Salam to Ras and it took a lot longer then we hoped, we had to wait a long time for a ferry in a very hot car. However when we arrived we were greeted with cold drinks and towels, from then on the stay was perfect.
The beach is amazing, very private big and sandy with reasonable size waves and nice sea protected by the reef to swim in.
The food was fantastic, buffet lunch with lovely salads and meets then a desert, and a full three course meal in the evening.
The service was great throughout our stay.
The monkeys were a problem when we had to leave in the morning as they tried to eat our breakfast as we were packing.
The plane back to Dar was fantastic and a much quicker and nicer option then driving.
Ras Kutani review
The road across to Ras Kutani is NOT for the faint hearted! Would have been fine in a 4x4 but in the mini bus they picked us up in it was a rather unpleasant two hour plus ride (apparently the pot holes have worsened of late). So advise a 4x4 is booked for guests
The place itself was beautifully done and the suite was well worth it - incredible views - totally chic. Could have done with a mini bar/stock of drinks as was a shame to be on the terrace so far from the restaurant etc without being able to enjoy a cool drink.
Manager was slightly "in your face" - considering it is a small place a chat once a day is quite enough but he was new and seemed to want to have a quick chat any time we passed by - felt rather suffocating. Staff were fine - nowhere near & bEYOND standard but that is to be expected - very sweet and eager to please. Excellent cocktails
Loved the boat ride to the airstrip
peaceful and relaxing
We spent the last 2 nights here and it was simply fantastic! Beautiful location, great rooms, excellent food and very nice and friendly staff.
Imal was up at 6.30 on a Sunday to take us to the airstrip and we were lucky to have him there as the booked flight did not arive at the scheduled time. He was great and he made several calls until he managed to get an aircraft to us. We made it in time to board the BA flight in Dar and we would have missed it without his help!! Great job! He was also very chatty and reassuring.
Whistle stop luxury
We were lucky to make our flight here before the sunset but it meant we had the most spectacular arrival. And we truly felt that this was a luxury resort. Being rowed across the lagoon on our arrival set the stall for our all too brief sojourn. Our hosts made us most welcome as we familiarised ourselves with our luxury banda.
The food was tasty and towards fine dining with the chef enquiring as to our enjoyment. The staff had been highly trained and this showed with quite exceptional service. Perhaps a some of the Tanzanian charm was a little too hidden with a very westernised set-up but for a luxury evening and day relaxing on the beach to end our holiday it was a great experience
Great venue to relax after a safari
Very relaxing. Adapted to our food requirements.
Brilliant rooms, beach and staff.
Honeymoon at Ras Kutani
What a way to relax after a weeks safari!
If you fancy a bit of adventure the mini bus trip down from Dar is worth trying! It gives you a high speed close up view of life in Dar and an amazing spectacle on how many people and cars can fit on a ferry!!
Upendo gave us a very warm welcome on arrival, we couldn't believe how posh it all was!! For a few moments we thought we were out of our depth but we very soon settled in to doing nothing but eating and sleeping quite well! In between bouts of lazing in a hammock and lounging on the beach we did manage a lovely walk along the beach and around the lagoon plus a bit of kayaking thrown in.
The food here is of the highest quality and the kitchen team were all great. The menu of the finest local produce with plenty of seafood was perfect.
The manager Greg was very friendly and helpfull to the extent of arranging a very early morning breakfast of bacon butties and fruit on our last morning before we left plus driving us personally to the airstrip from the boat jetty!
Ras Kutani Review
Ras Kutani is in a simply stunning location and from the moment we arrived everything seemed to be geared to making sure that we had a relaxing and as enjoyable a time as possible. Nothing was too much trouble for anyone.
Everything about Ras Kutani is stylish and yet completely unpretentious. Everywhere you went you had stunning ocean views and the quality of the accommodation and shared areas is absolutley superb.
The food and service is exceptional. The beach is postcard perfect and almost empty. Ras Kutani is as near to a beach paradise as you can imagine and worthy of a holiday in its own right (we would certainly go back) rather than a safari add on which seemd to be the norm.
Great spot to start (or end) a Tanzania trip
Ras Kutani's beautiful location between a lagoon and the ocean the perfect place to relax before starting on safari. Nothing like walking down the beach for hours without seeing another soul and a nap in the hammock to unwind.
Very friendly and attentive staff, excellent food and vervet monkeys on the roof only made the experience better.
Ras Kutani review
Real barefoot luxury. Having been before we were a little apprehensive that it would be so good but it was actually better. This may have been due in part to the weather,which was hot and sunny,but the lodge seemed fresher.
The service was really excellent and everything came with a smile. Nothing was too much trouble. We were so lucky to see turtles hatch on the beach and head for the sea.
Friendly gem of a beach hideaway
A very special place, remote location but wonderfully friendly. Jules and Emil were a fantastic combination and made every effort to make you feel at home.
The lagoon and spa ensured that there was a wider range of things to do than the ususal beach hotel. I could not recommend Ras Katani more highly

What is a medical home? Will it cut health-care costs? Definition and doctors' opinions.
by James Hubbard, M.D., M.P.H.
I'm jumping the gun a bit, but I thought you should have a heads up in case President Obama mentions the new buzz phrase "medical home" in his State of the Union Address.
Since his election, President Obama hasn't said much about universal health care, although I'm sure that's his long-term goal. He's mostly talked about cutting costs, with a definition only politicians can get away with: Lower costs means slowing said costs' growth. Instead growing 10 percent per year, maybe we can slow to 6 or 4 percent.
Of course any improvement, without diminishing quality, will be welcome. Obama's plan so far is to update health-care technology, such as implementing electronic medical records and (I hope he means) streamlining red tape. Time will tell how much that will really save.
Not to be left out of the health-care reform debate, professional medical organizations are pushing their own agenda. The concept of a medical home is big among primary-care groups like the American Academy of Family Physicians, American Academy of Pediatrics and American College of Physicians (internal medicine doctors). The American Medical Association also thinks it's a good idea.
Best I can tell, it means every person should have a primary-care doctor in charge of coordinating care. The current health-care system is fragmented. Your bevy of specialists don't always communicate well with each other. Your treatment can become duplicated or medications mixed wrongly, or a specialist may be treating things your primary-care doctor could do cheaper and more efficiently. At least, that's the premise.
So I'm thinking, this isn't a new concept. It has been around as long as I have. It's really what primary care is all about, just put in buzzword terms.
Medical-home proponents disagree. First, they say we're not talking about the gatekeeping concept as seen in HMOs. You can still see the doctor of your choice when you want, but, don't you know, everyone needs a home–a cozy place where everybody knows your name. More to the point, the medical home should be a place where you can have your preventive and primary-care needs taken care of, be referred for tests or specialist treatment when appropriate and have all your records kept in one place.
Well, how is that different from now? For one thing, proponents hope your primary-care physician will reimbursed for the extra time and office resources spent on making coordination a priority. Currently, insurances don't place a lot of monetary value on time or administrative costs unless a procedure is involved. Getting paid would help prove these time-consuming tasks do have value and might even entice physicians to go into primary care–because another problem is we already have a shortage in that field.
OK, where is this new money coming from? Ah, there's the rub. Of course, medical-home proponents say care will be more efficient, people healthier, etc. Critics counter that preventive checkups and exams for all will not save money and, in fact, may increase costs overall. (More tests mean more positive findings and more procedures and treatments).
A primary-care doctor wrote in the The Wall Street Journal that we could afford it if we cut specialist reimbursements, along with lab and X-ray. As you might guess, specialists are not so keen on this share-the-wealth, kumbaya idea. In fact an emergency-room specialist recently wrote his opinion in major ER journal that, in essence, primary care should be abandoned, abolished, let die. He thought the care the primary care doctors gave was inferior and had examples to prove his point. It was nasty.
Let the turf wars begin.

USA Today
March 14, 2019
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that his administration had grounded the Boeing 737 Max 8 planes involved in two catastrophic crashes, hours after the United States became the last country to do so.
"Those planes are grounded effective immediately," Trump told reporters at the White House. "The safety of the American people, of all people, is our paramount concern."
The United States was the last holdout on grounding the aircraft after Canada on Wednesday joined a growing list of nations that included China, Britain, France and Germany to make the call following an Ethiopian Airlines crash on Sunday that killed 157 people.
The Federal Aviation Administration previously stood by the safety of the plane, saying it hadn't found any issues to merit a grounding order. In a statement issued after Trump's remarks, the FAA said the administration was reversing course based on "the data gathering process and new evidence collected at the site."

Originally published in the Renton Chronicle, August 21, 1952
The following letter has just been received from Val Baima, brother of Joe Baima of the B and R coal mine. We are sure all the old-timers will enjoy hearing from him, and that all the "new-timers" will feel something of the spirit which must have motivated the old mining days in this area. We found his letter intensely interesting, and are sure you will too. —The Editor.
Aug. 10, 1952
Dear Editor Bruce Helberg,
Your wonderful "Pioneer edition" of the Renton Chronicle reached our home a couple days ago. We were very happy to see that my old home town—my birthplace—historic Newcastle was given a fine tribute. Not only did the old mining center receive a bit of story but given a few well deserved words of praise.
As a brother of Joe Baima and a friend of Mike Rubattina and the many other friends and acquaintances who now mine Newcastle coal we salute them.
Coal mining for many years now has had "hard going." From the day that Joe and Mike and the gang started the long hard road to keep Newcastle from going out altogether it has been a hard fight all the way.
The market for coal—as we all know—has been a tough one, with electricity, gas and oil competing. It is a wonder—almost a miracle that these men—with little capital—have managed to keep the coal mines around Newcastle going and yet able to keep out of the red. It takes real faith, plus a lot of courage to keep a business or an industry going when the odds are against it.
We hope that the coal industry of the northwest has passed the dark corner and from now on a new age and a new prosperity will touch it.
Your story of the B. and R. Coal Mines and also the story of the old ghost town of Newcastle filled me with stirring memories. The drama, the story, the great epic tale of Newcastle is yet to be written. There can be no way of relating the importance of this early coal mine town to the early history of Seattle, Renton and other nearby communities which were affected by the rich flow of wealth that came from the coal camp
No writer has yet come forward to so dramatize the thrilling beauty, pathos, joy and sorrow of the lives of these people. As for me—I am powerless to begin way to translate with mere words the greatness of this once booming mining camp.
The lives of the miner and their families are so closely interwoven—in a fabric of community living. The little town developed a soul, a heart, a mind ALL OF ITS OWN.
Newcastle—as I remember it as a little boy—and I was born up on the hill—not far from where the B. and R. coal bunkers now stand, was already a dying town. The old coal mines of the town were no longer worked. The town was still there, but the producing veins were all up at the new camp called Coal Creek.
My mother used to tell us tales of what the town was when she first moved there—and we knew from her stories that Newcastle was slowly changing. The Pacific Coast Coal Co. refused to build or repair any of the older houses. This was the signal that the town was doomed. Only a miracle—a great demand for coal—could save the village.
As an incentive to put the miner's on their own the coal company gave those who wished a chance to buy their homes and the land which they were built upon. It was during those years that we bought our present birthplace, and an acre and half of land around it.
Several other people bought their houses and land. All these demolished the old rough houses and built new and modern homes. The only original miner's house which was built by the coal company is the one known as the old Barney Baima home. This house—we have hope, faith, and trust—will be preserved for posterity.
The Historical Society of Washington State should someday—when the present day heirs see fit—keep this little coal miner's home for the centuries to come! A SHRINE.
The early coal miners of Newcastle—as well as other mining camps—did not live a life of ease and wealth. They worked from before daylight to dark—before the unions made working conditions better. They were paid low wages. The homes which they rented from the mine companies were very crude, simple and cheap of construction.
Yet, they were able to make a living and raise their families in the rough and crude villages. Newcastle's early life goes far beyond the days of the writer's birth. I was born in the year of 1905 and at this date so much living and toiling had already been done there.
My earliest recollection of life there was that no activity of any kind in the way of mining was taking place. The old bunkers were still standing but they seemed even at that time old and decaying from non-use. All around the camp were rusting steam pipes, rails and boiler tanks. Everything was booming at the new camp: Coal Creek. Later on the post office and all business houses moved up to the new town and the name too:
Coal Creek became the new "Newcastle." And our grand and wonderful little Newcastle became, for a while known as "Ole Newcastle." But it seemed in taking that name away from such fine village as Newcastle did not bring any good luck for the new "Newcastle." There was only a couple dozen years of prosperity or so, and soon the town went to pieces along with the coal business.
About this time out of the depression and hard times came two men—SONS OF THE OLD NEWCASTLE MINERS—they were Joe Baima and Mike Rubattina and the "gang" that worked with them, and thru their vision and their indomitable will (and a lot more) a new life came back to the nearly deserted town.
Please send us a copy of the July 31 issue. Thank you for the beautiful story of dear old Newcastle.
Sincerely, Val Baima

Back in 1976, he opened Maho Bay Camps on St. John, USVI, a group of tents on platforms on a pristine Caribbean hillside that became the flagship for eco-sensitive developments. And there was no better place to do this
"Apples Are From Kazakhstan: The Land That Disappeared," by Christopher Robbins
Reviewed by Richard West Sometimes you can tell a book by the cover. One of the many charms of Robbins' work is a striking cover image/photo of a bright red apple with a Kazakhstan-shaped bite on the fruit's faintly imposed map of the Russian Federation. Apples, specifically the Aport,

More dog owners obey license rule
Though Seattle Animal Shelter's zero-tolerance policy for unlicensed animals has infuriated some pet owners, it's led to a record number of dogs licensed in the first four months of this year.
At least 10,276 dogs were licensed January through April, an increase of 2,200 over the same period last year.
A $250,000 budget increase this year allowed the shelter to beef up enforcement, but also open daily, leading to adoptions or redemptions of 113 additional animals compared with the first four months of last year.
But the shelter, which dishes out $125 municipal court fines for unlicensed dogs, cats and pigs, hasn't convinced the bulk of Seattle cat owners to take action -- especially indoor cat owners who insist their felines won't get out.
Between January and April 2006, the shelter licensed 5,780 cats and ticketed eight cat owners. Under the zero-tolerance policy, the 2007 number licensed increased by 11. Five owners had been ticketed.
"Really, the only way to get those numbers to increase is through public education," Seattle Animal Shelter Enforcement Supervisor Ann Graves said.
"And it's very hard to get people to understand the importance of getting their cats licensed."
Shelter employees have contacted managers at 50 Seattle apartment complexes in the past two months to emphasize the importance of licensing pets, Executive Director Don Jordan said. The shelter also has made site visits to Seattle Housing Authority complexes, where most residents can get a discount on the licenses, which range from $15 to $120 a year.
"I tell people who don't think it's important to come down to the shelter and see all the indoor cats that have escaped," Jordan said, adding that licensed cats aren't required to wear collars. "There are so many things that can lead to a cat getting out. And only 2 to 3 percent of cats that come to the shelters return to their owners."
Betsy Paige, who takes feral cats into her Seward Park home, was fined $125 after one she owned lost his collar and a neighbor took him to a veterinarian.
"I can't afford to get each of them licensed," she said. "And why should I pay when he was chipped? It's not like he was causing trouble, and I already did my part by getting him fixed."
Jordan estimates there are 125,000 dogs and 250,000 cats in Seattle, with about 88,000 licensed total. The discrepancy is partially because of owners incorrectly assuming that microchips surgically implanted between a pet's shoulders are enough protection, he said. Enforcement officers report that the chips often have outdated information.
The shelter's 12 animal control officers patrol Seattle parks about 30 hours a week and expect to reach 120 hours by December with three additional officers. Graves said that contrary to popular belief, they aren't patrolling neighborhoods trying to trap off-leash animals for profit.
"Our first concern are animal cruelty calls, followed by calls for dangerous or injured animals," Graves said, adding that licensing isn't overlooked.
In the first four months of 2007, the shelter issued 441 tickets for unlicensed animals -- up from 333 during the same 2006 period. But the money generated is a small fraction of the shelter's $3.26 million budget.
Animal control officer Brett Rogers said that initially, some of his co-workers didn't like the zero-tolerance policy because of the verbal attacks they get from outraged pet owners.
"But the number of licensed animals has increased, which is a benefit for pets and their owners," he said. "Once we get a full staff, we'll really be able to see what we can do."

Jude's Prove No Lost Causes
By Peter Sweeney on May 3, 2012 in Championship, Men's Football, News
St Jude's 3-10
Ranelagh Gaels 1-11
Ranelagh Gaels were desperately unlucky to crash out of the Junior C Championship on Tuesday night having played 50 minutes of fabulous football.
Away at Tymon North against St Jude's in the second round the Gaels started and finished badly, which was their ultimate undoing.
They gave Jude's a five-point head-start, but managed to get back level at the break – 1-5 apiece – thanks to a cheeky Johnny Conlon lobbed goal.
The first 25 minutes after the change of end produced some great play, though the Gaels lived to regret not tagging on the scores to kill off the game.
With five minutes left Ranelagh were leading by four, but in a crazy closing period conceded 2-3 to lose by five points.
There was only stunned silence dressing room afterwards, but now the team must make sure that they drive on for the remainder of the season – starting with a League game at the end of the month.

This was a very interesting BUZZ that I found today and wanted to share with you.
Originally posted on: https://www.roadtovr.com/varjo-series-b-31-million-investment-bionic-display-headset/
Finland-based headset maker Varjo has announced it has raised a $31 million Series B investment to continue the development of its novel 'Bionic Display' headset which incorporates a high-density display with a wide field of view display as a shortcut toward a 'retina resolution' VR headset.
Varjo's Series B investment was led by London-based investment firm Atomico, with participation from Next47, EQT Ventures, and Lifeline Ventures. The company says the money will be used to scale the company's workforce from 80 to 200 people over the next year, and to fund the launch of the first Varjo headset which is due out in "late Q4." The company says the Series B round brings their total investment capital to $46 million.
With an expected price between $5,000 and $10,000 per device, Varjo is exclusively targeting enterprise customers with its initial headset. The company says they're working with Airbus, Audi, Lilium, Saab, Sellen, Volkswagen, and Volvo Cars to adapt the headset to enterprise needs, with many companies seeking cheaper and more efficient virtual design and production processes aided by VR equipment.
"Decisions are the daily challenge in a product development process. Supporting virtual development means to deliver the highest available quality to enable reliable decisions.
Varjo's technology is convincing and will help us to close the existing gaps and speed up our development cycles using the advantages of a continuous virtual process," said Jan Pflueger from the Coordination Augmented and Virtual Reality Center Of Competence at Audi in the press announcement of Varjo's Series B investment.
