Be a hero
Last week I lost a bag with over $1,000 in it on the way to the bank.
In so many cases in this community, beautiful stories have been told about the wonderful people who return things. I was so wishing to be a part of one of these stories.
Alas, the dough, which was our CD sales money from The Flying Dog Bluegrass Band's recording project, was earned the hard way ? we picked for it.
If you found it, and you're feeling just a little guilty, you could mail it back to us at The Great Divide, 111 South Monarch, and we'd consider you some sort of unknown moral hero. And wouldn't you feel so much better about yourself?
If you read this, and you keep it … it'll come around.

Doulas are non-medical professionals who have been trained to provide physical and emotional support as well as information for women and their partners before, during, and after birth.
Birth doulas help families to prepare for birth, offer continuous support during labor, and brief postpartum care after the birth of the baby.
Postpartum doulas support new parents by providing infant care, basic breast feeding support and referrals to local resources as needed, in an effort to smooth the transition into life with a new baby.
A Doulas support can come in many different shapes. Physical support can come in a variety of methods such as massage, counter pressure, position changes, and rhythmic movement. Emotional support comes from the reassurance, relaxation techniques and the calm presence of your Doula. The information provided by your Doula both prenatally and during the birth, can help you to better understand the processes and changes that are taking place, as well as help you navigate your options should complications arise. Most importantly doulas hold the space and have complete confidence in a woman's ability to birth her baby, and work to make sure that every woman feels loved and supported in her choices and decisions throughout the whole birthing process.
Should I have a doula at my birth?
Whether you are planning to have an unmedicated birth, are looking forward to an epidural, or have a scheduled c-section, a doula can support you and your family in the ways outlined above.
According to current research, women receiving doula support are 28% less likely to have a cesarean birth, 31% less likely to use a synthetic form of oxytocin, such as Pitocin, to augment labor, 9% less likely to use any pain medication at all during labor, and 34% less likely to describe their birth experience negatively. Women who receive support from an untrained partner or friend are more likely to view her birth experience positively, their likelihood of requiring obstetric interventions is unchanged.

Crime & Courts
Man searched by guard at women's clinic pleads guilty to explosives charge
A homeless man who tried to apply for a job at a Wichita women's clinic while carrying a homemade firecracker in his backpack pleaded guilty Monday to criminal use of explosives, a spokesman for the Sedgwick County District Attorney's Office said.
The felony conviction could land 20-year-old Moises R. Trevizo Jr. in prison for up to 11 years and four months when he is sentenced June 24 before Sedgwick County District Court Judge Kevin O'Connor. If he has little or no prior criminal history, he could also be placed on probation under state sentencing guidelines.
Wichita police, at the time of his arrest, said Trevizo walked into the South Wind Women's Center at 5107 E. Kellogg to apply for work on Aug. 17, 2015, but was halted by a clinic security guard to search his bag. Along with clothing and several knives, the guard found a roughly 3-inch-tall pill bottle with a wick or fuse poking out of it. The clinic was evacuated as a precaution.
The clinic occupies the same building where George Tiller performed abortions for years before he was murdered in 2009. Authorities quickly ruled out the chance that Trevizo might be an anti-abortion protester involved in a bomb threat.
Trevizo's jury trial on the charge had been scheduled to start Monday. He remains in Sedgwick County Jail in lieu of bond, according to jail records.

KMC 7500C Handheld Electronic Calculator
- Image
- View Full Item
- Created Date
- ca 1986
- Description
This solar-powered electronic calculator has a tan and gray plastic case and twenty-four plastic keys. Twenty-three keys are square; the addition key is rectangular. In addition to ten digit keys, a decimal point key, a total key, and four arithmetic function keys, the calculator has three memory keys, a change sign key, a square root key, a percentage key, and an on/clear key.
Behind the keyboard is the solar power cell. Text next to it reads: KMC 7500C. Above this is the eight-digit LCD display. It lights up and the calculator carries out calculations, but the results are not necessarily accurate. Text on the back of the calculator reads: ELECTRONIC CALCULATOR (/) POWER SOURCE SOLAR CELL (/) MADE IN TAIWAN. Unscrewing four screws makes it possible to lift off the back of the calculator. A mark on the circuit board reads: SD9-13.
According to records of Canadian trademarks, in 1982 Kmart Canada began using the trademark KMC for calculators and other devices sold in its stores. The trademark was registered in 1984 and discontinued in 1999. The KMC mark on the calculator indicates that the trademark is registered. No such trademark, as applied to calculators, is included in the U.S. registry of trademarks. The calculator came to the museum from Canada in 1988. Hence it seems likely that the calculator was distributed by Kmart Canada and made around 1986.

Ferreira do Alentejo (20 min from Beja)

- Reception and seedless grape tasting (during the harvesting season)
- Visit to the packing facilities
- Tractor ride through the vineyards
- Lunch under the vineyards to the sound of live traditional music (Cante Alentejano)
- Offer of a traditional basket with a box of grapes

Minimum party of two required to book
Our Producer
In the heart of the Alentejo, our producer has created a magical space where vines grow closely watched by the most experienced eyes and are cared for by the most delicate hands. The grapes are distinguished by the unique flavour and texture: Crunchy, sweet, and absolutely irresistible.
The grapes are protected throughout the year, using the most advanced production techniques so that in the summer they grow beautiful and sweet, making them the delights of those who taste them.
The Natural Conditions
The immensity of flat horizons allied to the geographical location offers the Alentejo Mediterranean and continental characteristics favorable to the production of grapes. Over 3.000 annual hours of sunshine and warm weather, with temperatures above 35°C in the height of summer, are reflected in the maturation of grapes with an accumulation of sugars that makes them particularly sweet and with a strong and mature color.
The production
Our producer is currently the largest national producer of table grapes with a production area of about 250 hectares and 13 grape varieties of high quality. The methods of production are based on the pergola system consisting of tall vineyards covered by networks and plastics that promote a microenvironment favorable to the development of the grape.
The Grapes
Our producer currently has in production 13 varieties of grapes including six with grainha and seven without grainha. Continually thinking about the future, we also contemplate a vast experimental field where some of the world's most renowned grape varieties are being tested and, when their viability is guaranteed, they become options to be considered for cultivation in extension and commercialization.
If you want to learn more about grape picking near Beja, local vineyards, and grapes, book this seedless grape tour online today!
After booking we will send all the details of the reservation, as well as the location and the contact of the farmer.

Like other fatty dairy products, butter and cream are rich in conjugated linoleic acid, the fatty acid that may promote fat loss. Because of this, some people may thrive on the ketogenic diet with a higher carb intake while others should consume below 35g of carbs per day.
For athletes and others who exercise regularly, the cyclical ketogenic diet may be the best option for boosting performance. The net carbs in non-starchy vegetables range from 1—8 grams per cup.
In fact, some studies suggest that cheese may help protect against heart disease The main macros to track that provide us energy during the day are protein 4 calories per gram, fats 9 calories per gram, and carbs 4 calories per gram. Viscous fiber forms a gel that slows down food's movement through your digestive tract.
Finding your carb limit for ketosis takes patience and persistence. Olives provide the same health benefits as olive oil, only in solid form.

Slips, Trips, and Falls
Keep Your Employees Well Grounded
We've all slipped on a slick floor, tripped over a child's toy or fallen off a ladder. When it happens at home, we usually end up with minor, though sometimes embarrassing, bumps, bruises or scrapes. When it happens at work, it can be far more serious.
Falls are the third leading cause of workplace fatalities, behind automotive accidents and contact with equipment. Slips, trips and falls also carry direct and indirect costs.
Direct costs, which include medical and income benefits for the injured worker, are covered by the insurance carrier. Indirect costs, such as making up for lost production, come out of your pocket. Indirect costs can be one time to 10 times higher than direct costs.
So, that's the bad news. The good news is that you can prevent most slips, trips and falls.
Start by conducting regularly scheduled self-inspections. Check your workplace for wet or greasy floors, damaged ladders, clutter, poor lighting and other hazards. Watch employees work, making sure they follow safety procedures. Remind them to never sacrifice safety for efficiency.
Your goal is to eliminate hazards and correct unsafe behaviors before someone gets hurt.
Of course, accidents and near misses happen, even in the safest workplaces. Investigate them as soon as possible to find and correct the root causes. But, don't stop there. Periodically review your accidents for trends.
For example, are employees consistently getting injured in certain areas of your workplace? Are workers who perform a specific task getting injured?
Texas Mutual online services can help you steer clear of slips, trips and falls. Policyholders can visit the safety resource center at texasmutual.com to get safety training materials and correct the root causes of accidents.

Romanov by Nadine Brandes
Author: Nadine Brandes
Published: May 7, 2019
337 Pages
Reviewed By: Kim
Kim's Rating: 4 stars
Book Description:
The history books say I died.
They don't know the half of it.
Anastasia "Nastya" Romanov was given a single mission: to smuggle an ancient spell into her suitcase on her way to exile in Siberia. It might be her family's only salvation. But the leader of the Bolshevik army is after them, and he's hunted Romanov before.
Nastya's only chances of saving herself and her family are to either release the spell and deal with the consequences, or enlist help from Zash, the handsome soldier who doesn't act like the average Bolshevik. Nastya has only dabbled in magic, but it doesn't frighten her half as much as her growing attraction to Zash. She likes him. She thinks he might even like her.
That is, until she's on one side of a firing squad . . . and he's on the other.
Kim's Review:
This is the second book of Brandes that I've attempted and the first that I've read all the way through. The problem that I had in Fawkes came out a little in Romanov but thankfully not enough for me to DNF it. It's honestly my only real criticism. Brandes has a habit of writing books that need a prerequisite. She throws in details about magic and culture that have no context and I automatically felt like I was missing something important. As I said, I felt that a little in Romanov but not as bad. I've also studied the last Romanovs so I understood the historical context. Brandes seemed to try to stick as close to history as possible and I liked that a lot.
The unfortunate side effect was that the Romanovs' boring lives in Ekaterinburg and Tobolsk bled through into the story and there were times that I wanted things to move a bit faster. However, I liked her portrayal of the family and of the Bolsheviks. I believed every word and action and I would be the least bit surprised if it all happened exactly like in the book. I really liked this book and would recommend it to anyone who likes historical fiction. It's also safe for teens to read, but due to the slow pacing, I'd save it for older teens.

Sorcery of Thorns
Author: Margaret Rogerson

Reviewed By: Kim
Kim's Rating: 5 stars
Book Description:
All sorcerers are evil. Elisabeth has known that as long as she has known anything. Raised as a foundling in one of Austermeer's Great Libraries, Elisabeth has grown up among the tools of sorcery—magical grimoires that whisper on shelves and rattle beneath iron chains. If provoked, they transform into grotesque monsters of ink and leather. She hopes to become a warden, charged with protecting the kingdom from their power.
Then an act of sabotage releases the library's most dangerous grimoire. Elisabeth's desperate intervention implicates her in the crime, and she is torn from her home to face justice in the capital. With no one to turn to but her sworn enemy, the sorcerer Nathaniel Thorn, and his mysterious demonic servant, she finds herself entangled in a centuries-old conspiracy. Not only could the Great Libraries go up in flames, but the world along with them.
As her alliance with Nathaniel grows stronger, Elisabeth starts to question everything she's been taught—about sorcerers, about the libraries she loves, even about herself. For Elisabeth has a power she has never guessed, and a future she could never have imagined.
Kim's Review:
This is a great story! I get really tired of all the same stories told over and over again, and Sorcery of Thorns is refreshingly unique. The cover is also gorgeous! I love everything about this book. The characters were all larger than life and were still realistic and relatable. I related to Elizabeth really well, especially her sheltered background. The story would have suffered greatly had Silas not been included. He was one of the most complicated characters I've seen in a while and I loved him! The setting was beautiful and those libraries; I would totally visit those libraries! One thing that stood out to me was the pacing. Everything was well spaced out and after every calm sequence, action followed. The reading was easy and quick. Overall, an excellent fantasy book for anyone, especially for teens!

Kim's Rating: 3 stars
Book Description:
Paris in 1789 is a labyrinth of twisted streets, filled with beggars, thieves, revolutionaries—and magicians…
When smallpox kills her parents, Camille Durbonne must find a way to provide for her frail, naive sister while managing her volatile brother. Relying on petty magic—la magie ordinaire—Camille painstakingly transforms scraps of metal into money to buy the food and medicine they need. But when the coins won't hold their shape and her brother disappears with the family's savings, Camille must pursue a richer, more dangerous mark: the glittering court of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette.
With dark magic forbidden by her mother, Camille transforms herself into the 'Baroness de la Fontaine' and is swept up into life at the Palace of Versailles, where aristocrats both fear and hunger for la magie. There, she gambles at cards, desperate to have enough to keep herself and her sister safe. Yet the longer she stays at court, the more difficult it becomes to reconcile her resentment of the nobles with the enchantments of Versailles. And when she returns to Paris, Camille meets a handsome young balloonist—who dares her to hope that love and liberty may both be possible.
But la magie has its costs. And when Camille loses control of her secrets, the game she's playing turns deadly. Then revolution erupts, and she must choose—love or loyalty, democracy or aristocracy, freedom or magic—before Paris burns…
Kim's Review:
First off, let's all take a moment to admire this cover! It makes my skin tingle!!! Definitely in my Top 5 fave covers of the year! I predict it goes pretty far in Series two at the end of the year for our Most Gorgeous Cover competition! Unfortunately, the cover is far better than the story. It has its good elements, but overall, I wasn't impressed with the story. I've said before that I like more condensed scope that feels more intimate and manageable. However, if the situation calls for it, a wider scope works and works well. This book felt like it should have been far wider in scope than it was. For Camille, it never seemed to get farther than getting money so they can survive. I get it, that's obviously a good goal, but in the middle of the French Revolution? I expected more to happen. She talked a good game about wanting equality and down with the nobles and all that, but she never DID anything. When you look at the story as a whole, it's literally a tiff between teen nobles . . . And that's pretty much it.
Yes, there was magic, but you never learn anything about it. The characters, while mostly likable, felt very static. I found myself pulling for the bad guy and looking for a twist that never happened. Most of the facets of the story felt like they didn't fit in with each other. The balloon didn't really fit with the revolution, the magic didn't really fit with Versailles, the villain's motivation seemed so shallow and flat compared to the times. I'm glad I read it, and I liked hearing about the fashion and life at Versailles, but I don't think I'll ever read it again. I also wouldn't really recommend it to too many people. Maybe readers with a deeper imagination than I have would like it better.

I was recently experimenting with the WordPress IOS application on my iPad2 and posted some updates with location awareness, i.e. the post included latitude and longitude. I am interested in being able to do mobile posts which carry the location with it so I can associate events with places more readily in my posts, eventually displaying them on a map. The WordPress app worked as billed, posting latitude and longitude in decimal format along with the blog post. What I needed to do next was to verify that the coordinates were correct.
Using Google Maps, this is extremely straighforward. To find the location within Google Maps based on latitude and longitude, all you have to do is enter them in decimal format into the Google Map search area. For example, the coordinates I had for Bellagio Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada was 36.1130380156326, -115.17682313919067. Entering these coordinates into the Google Map Search Bar yielded the desired results.
If anyone has an easier and free approach to getting these same results, please let me know.

She grabbed my hair and ground my face hard into her saltandpepper bush, this magnificent woman, 25 years older than me at 25, her pussy slick and hot with juices now coating my face.
Growing inside of me like butterflies before a performance, desire turned into lust. She turned her iPod back on and faced the other way. I selected one with what appeared to be an older guy with a woman dressed like a young teen with pigtails. She trust down one final time and began tensing and shaking as her juices flooded my crotch. I walked around in front of him and looked into his eyes as they shifted to follow me, there is a price you pay for those drugs.
Kiss my nipples, suck them for me, Daddy. I didn't risk trying to slip into his bed that night. I told her if she didn't quit struggling, I would just kill her now with the screwdriver and be done with it. Jessica paused for moment then asked You drove up together but you are not driving back home together. I have told her that I just turned 18. My fingers continued to alternately caress her big tits and luscious stocking clad thighs.
Dawn told Diane to back off and let her have Tom but Diane was not thrilled with that suggestion. Finally, the evaluators were done and a stable mistress shouted, Release. I guess it just is what it is. Moment and released me.

Patsy Sue Enloe
Patsy Sue Enloe
February 22, 1937 — June 6, 2019
Happy little memories go flitting through my mind, and in all my thoughts and memories I always find the picture of your face, Mom, the memory of your touch and all the other things I've come to treasure so much. You cannot go beyond my thoughts or leave my love behind because I keep you in my heart and forever in my mind.
Patsy Sue Enloe, 82, of Kingsland, Texas, joyfully left her earthly body to be with her Lord and Savior and her beloved family on June 6, 2019. She was born Feb. 22, 1937 in Pampa, Texas, to Jewel and William Bryan Taylor.
Pat married her childhood friend and high school sweetheart, David Enloe, in 1955. Pat began working as a secretary at an insurance agency mid-term of her senior year at Pampa High School. She then worked for Beacon Supply Company and Cabot Corporation in Pampa prior to moving to Kingsland. Shortly after, the family increased with the birth of Wendy Sue.
The Enloe's quickly became active in the Kingsland community and made their church home Kingsland First Baptist Church. Pat was once a member of the Hallelujah Brass Handbell Choir and the Sanctuary Choir. She also served as an assistant with the Young Musicians of the church, Mission Friends, and Faith Families. She later became a member of the Chapel of the Hills Baptist Church in Buchanan Dam.
In 2006, Pat retired from Highland Lakes Bank after 32 years of service. Retirement did not last long, and she returned part time in the stock brokers area of the bank. She had a strong will to work and her final job was a part time secretary of A&B Termite & Pest Control.
In addition to her countless hours of working and volunteering, her passion was water skiing. She was both a competitive and show skier and accumulated trophies at tournaments all over the State of Texas. However, a severe injury in 1963 kept her from skiing but never quenched her love for the sport.
Pat and David shared the passion of skiing and mentoring the youth in Kingsland. In 1980, the couple established a ski team they named "Enloe's Outlaws" and the team performed at Aqua Boom from 1980 to 1992. The practices were long, hard, and very special to Pat. They referred to the members of the team as "their kids" and Pat was especially proud when they called her "Mom" years later.

The government has proposed mandatory country of origin labeling for all food products processed in Japan. Do you look at labels to see the country of origin when you are buying food?

I sure do.
I only trust general food products if they are produced and manufactured in my home country.
There are some ethnic food products that may come from abroad, and that's fine as long as it's labeled.
Country of origin labeling for many processed food products has very limited usefulness given that the consumer still doesn't know where the many ingredients (many of which are also processed food materials) used to make the final product are from.
Still, when buying canned fruit in Japan (for instance), the items from China are often 1/4 or less the price of those from Japan. Although there have been some shameful food scandals in both countries in recent years, I can see why consumers would hesitate to buy the ones from China.
I'm all about informing customers, but I resent the subtext that food from "gaikoku" is more potentially unsafe than food from Japan. I routinely eat produce from China and it's never bothered me. In the years close after Fukushima, I'd wager there was a lot of seafood from other countries that was a good bit safer than some seafood labeled "日本".
Most foods are already labeled with country of origin. The problem is believing the labels in a country with a multitude of food labelling scams.
A Realist
Of course it should be mandatory. People have the right to know where their food comes from and some countries have very questionable standards of hygiene.
I try not to buy as many foods produced in China as possible, but dont mind about others like clothes.
except companies cheat the system
Ever since the Fukushima tragedy, we do now... (never before).
Depends what it is... if that country has less than humane animal farming techniques then I won't buy it.
As someone said, Japanese companies already lie about country of origin for meat, rice and other things, so the law won't change anything.
The law doesn't protect you from anything. It's against the law to murder someone, but people are murdered every day.
Jo David
I will never eat any food product produced in another country and exported. I wish i could get away from buying products made in China. But sadly , in the USA that's impossible...
The question is, will they inform you of where it comes from domestically? They do it all the time for most things, but recently there have been far less products "from Fukushima", or caught in the oceans around it, and are instead labelled simply "domestic" and "Pacific Ocean". So I'd also like detailed information on where they come from within the country as well as outside.
And yes, I often check. But depending on the product, I don't care.
I always check, not only the country , but location like area or town, address of farm/plant... It's not always on it, but I favor products that have a precise origin and I buy whole produce as much as possible, With current technology, we should be able to track origin, date of production and route of all food, including for ingredients inside processed food. But food industry does not want to inform us.
As someone said, Japanese companies already lie about country of origin for meat, rice and other things, so the law won't change anything.
The more information you have, the easier to check.
I always look to see how much cr@p is packed into it. It's remarkable. And that is just the stuff that is vaguely listed, since there are no requirements to be that specific. And, as a vegetarian, it is almost impossible to avoid all kinds of meat extracts and gelatine in food you wouldn't even imagine it is in. Plus, with all the labelling scandals it is hard to trust anything except food I prepare from scratch myself. Which is mostly what I do. So, country of origin is almost a minor consideration. Though I tend to trust European food more.
They ought to be fully listing the ingredients as a matter of course, but they don't. When they don't, they lose my custom.
I try not to buy as many foods produced in China as possible,
Same here, too many times have there been issues with products from there that it's just wiser not to buy them, even when they cost as much as 50% or more LESS than products imported from other Asian countries. In particular Chinese produced veggies.
Aly Rustom
I try not to buy food from China, or some parts of Japan like Fukushima or Ibaraki
yes, anything from fukushima is very suspect,,, anything from US, Australia or NZ is super thumbs up...
Fresh foods yep. Always try to buy local, i.e J food in japan, aussie one in oz etc, 'when in Rome' stuff.
Also take into account the type of food and 'who's an expert at what' i.e French cheese, French/Spanish/Italian hams and other cold meats etc.
YES!! I always looks where stuff is ""made"" & ingredients!
Problem is there is a LOT that big biz has FAUGHT to keep from having to put on labels, & even if it says made in XXX, that does NOT mean everything contained is from that country!!!
Lots of processed foods(ie slow poison!) contain stuff from many countries heck often companies DONT KNOW which countries stuff is in which cans or frozen pack of god knows what! And they also state on labels that processed foods can basically contain bits of pretty much ANYTHING that enters their factories could well end up in the can so to speak.
Its gotten really bad there is so much CRAP in food, colours, thickeners, preservatives etc & some even contain some actual food I have heard...........bottom line I think we are going to find out more & more that processed foods are bad, causing cancers etc, kind of how it went with smokes.
I figure we are only at the point where some people think maybe there is too many chemicals etc in food, its going to take some years before the you know what starts hitting the fan!!
Honestly, the first "label" I look at is the price.
Then, I'll check the cheapest one and see where it's made. The problem is, the woman I'm related to by marriage is Japanese and she always trusts "Made in Japan" blindly and goes for that.
I've been able to over time teach her not to judge food by it's cover.
The first thing I look for is 「調味料(アミノ酸等)」flavour enhancer (amino acids etc.), a nom de guerre for ubiquitous MSG. If such a multitude of products is so hideously bland that their flavour needs turbo charging, what on earth is in them?
And can we really trust a regulator that allows a major dairy to label (kid-targeted) Hokkaido string cheese containing 調味料(アミノ酸等)as "natural cheese?"
Take the log out of your own eye before looking for the mote in other's.
Jeff Huffman
We're still fighting for this in the U.S. The better stores, Whole Foods nationally and Central Market locally, tend to label country of origin for all "fresh" food.
Yes, but only to confirm the country of origin if the country of origin is part of why the product is so expensive. If it says "Original French XXX", then I want to know that it is actually from France.
I think it's pretty important with food, especially meat where I only buy from Japan, Australia, NZ, Canada and the US. I think most people would want to know if their foods are coming from China or the Eastern Bloc as well..
The first three digits of the barcode number on the package should tell you where it is made. For China it will start with the numbers 690~695. Made in Japan should start with 49. A manager at a pet shop told me that when I wanted to make sure I was not buying anything made in China.
A barcode number starting with 4 5 is also from Japan.
Japan, my home country, is not totally free of food processing/labeling scams, but the products I avoid are those from China. I am sure not all products from that country are tainted, but better safe than sorry I tell myself and my family and end up paying more than 2, 3, 4 times the price.
I routinely eat produce from China and it's never bothered me.
I used to routinely walk through a so-called dangerous neighborhood, and it never bothered me. Until one day, I ended up in the hospital. You can probably routinely eat food from the no-go zone in Fukushima, and it won't bother you either. Until it does.
The sad fact is that Chinese themselves don't trust Chinese food makers. Lots of people have died and gotten sick. I'd rather learn from others' misfortunes than insist on learning first hand, which may well then be too late.
Japan does have lots of problems as well, but not nearly as many as China, or even the USA.
I would probably care less about this if I was just eating for myself, but I'm not going to increase the risk to my kids to save a little money.
Many people in the USA look at POO to decide if they are going to buy a food product from China. It is Halloween time and it is very important that the candy which will be over consumed this month is safe. Made in China is rejected even it another product costs a $100.00 USD more.

Today in Astana the second meeting of the highest officials of Almaty process on protection of refugees and the international migration devoted to the subject "Possibilities and Challenges of Labor Migration in Central Asia" was held.
The meeting goal is to share experience, analyze of new tendencies, identify gaps in the migration legislation and develop joint recommendations of the Participating Parties in the sphere of labor migration in Central Asia. In the course of meeting the issues concerning refugees' access to labor markets of member countries of Almaty process as the tool further adaptation of migrants was also studied.
The Vice-Minister of healthcare and social development of the RK Birzhan Nurymbetov, the Regional Representative of UN High Commissioner Administration on the refugees affairs for Central Asia Bernard Doyle, the Regional Coordinator of International Organization For Migration (hereinafter - IOM) for Central Asia Deyan Keserovich, the Deputy Minister of Labor, Migration and Youth of Kyrgyzstan Almazbek Assanbayev, the Vice Chairman of the State Migration Service of Turkmenistan Merden Gurdov and representatives of other member countries of Almaty process took part in the event.
According to IOM data, every seventh person in the world is a migrant, including 214 million international migrants and 740 million internal migrants. This tendency will proceed – the increase in number of the international migrants from today's 214 million to 400 million by 2040 is predicted
In his speech the Vice Minister of healthcare and social development of the RK Birzhan Nurymbetov noted that member states of Almaty process are to resolve issues of labor migration regulation and employment of refugees.
"In Kazakhstan the main inflow of the settled labor migration is constituted by citizens of China, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Serbia and India. For long time the largest number of labor migrants working with permissions came from Turkey and constituted from one third to a half of all foreign citizens working in the country. Since 2010 China won the first place by number of foreign workers in connection with construction of the international transit corridor "Western Europe –Western China", and also implementation of other projects with the Chinese investments", - Birzhan Nurymbetov said.
The Vice Minister reported that protection of the migrant workers' rights and their integration at local labor markets can be reached only through migration process arrangement.
"In this regard, it is important to discuss migration in the context of general development of the country and to reach harmonization of migration management policy on the basis of compliance with universal human rights and interests of the countries participating in migration processes", - Birzhan Nurymbetov emphasized.
At the end of meeting the participants agreed to continue the multilateral cooperation aimed at solution of the problems arising from unregulated labor migration and mixed migration movements in Central Asia.
Let us remind that Almaty process is the permanent dialogue platform initiated by Kazakhstan in 2011. Its goal consists in the joint solution of the most pressing problems of refugees and international migration, both in regional format, and in global prospect. Kazakhstan was elected the first chairman of Almaty process. Beside our republic the permanent participants of Almaty process are Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkey and Turkmenistan. Iran and Pakistan have the status of supervisors.

As deaths among right whales mount, scientists fear endangered species at critical juncture.
In February 2016, East Central Florida animal lovers were riveted by an endangered right whale nicknamed Clipper and her baby. Clipper gave birth to the calf off Florida's east coast, then found her way into Sebastian Inlet in Brevard County, giving many people their first look at two of the massive, endangered whales.
Last month, right whale biologists and scientists gathered around her body on a distant beach at Grand Etang, Quebec. She is one of six whales found dead in June in Canada's Gulf of St. Lawrence.
Clipper's story illustrates the highs and lows of the efforts in the United States and Canada to save the critically endangered animals.
Jim Hain, senior scientist and program leader for the Marineland Right Whale Project, fears the whales may have reached "a tipping point."
A network of 200 volunteers in Volusia, Flagler and Brevard counties eagerly watch the ocean each winter hoping for a glimpse of any whale, but especially a female right whale with a new calf.
Word of a sighting or a new calf ripples quickly through the community. Whale calving has dropped off dramatically off Florida's coast in recent years, bottoming out with no new calves in 2018. But seven calves were reported this winter, raising hopes that perhaps the whale calving would begin returning to its former numbers.
But whale scientists cautioned not to get too excited. Turns out they were right. The jubilation about the seven calves quickly dissolved into despair as each new dead whale was discovered this summer.
At least three of the six dead whales were victims of apparent vessel strikes, said researchers with the Marineland Right Whale Project and the New England Aquarium. The results of a fourth necropsy were inconclusive.
Officials with Fisheries Oceans Canada, collaborating with a network of universities and agencies, have completed necropsies on four of the six whales.
The outcome of Clipper's necropsy was announced as "death due to blunt trauma, consistent with vessel strike." She was buried in a landfill in Gaspe, Quebec.
A 10-knot speed restriction implemented by the Canadian government where she was found is still in place.
Four of the dead whales were females. Two of them had been producing calves, and two were old enough to produce calves but had not yet given birth.
"We can't kill our females before they ever even replace themselves," said Julie Albert, right whale hotline coordinator for the Marine Resources Council, who helps train local volunteers to watch for the whales.
Like many right whales, Clipper's body carried scars from previous encounters with vessels. She was named for an injury where a portion of her right fluke had been severed or clipped in a vessel strike before she was first spotted off Florida in 2004, said Jim Hain.
Twelve years later, in 2016, she was seen with her first calf, said Hain. She was photographed about a mile off Ponce Inlet in Volusia County.
Albert clearly remembers the excitement around Clipper's visit in the winter of 2016. "That was huge," she said. "It was an incredible learning experience, not just for the public, but the marine mammal people as well."
People were driving "from very long distances" to see the whale and her calf, Albert said.
She was also seen in Volusia County off Ormond Beach and South Daytona, said Hain. "The frequent sightings in 2016 meant that many volunteers with both the Marineland Right Whale Project and the Marine Resources Council had a connection with this whale."
The deaths are all the more concerning for whale researchers when considered in the context of the births and deaths among the right whales since 2016.
With 14 calves born in 2016, five born in 2017, no calves born in 2018, and seven born in 2019, Hain said with the births "held against the 17 deaths in 2017, and the six deaths and an entanglement so far in 2019, we have to accept that we are faced with a tipping point."
Right whale scientists have grown increasingly concerned about the calving rate, which may be influenced by the amount of food available to the female whales.
But this summer's deaths particularly sting "for the scientists and volunteers working in Florida, who were cautiously optimistic as of March 2019 when seven calves were tallied for the season," Hain said.
"While the seven were fewer than might be desirable, this was seen as perhaps the beginning of a rebound or upward trend. Now, in July 2019, even the most optimistic of us will have to face the reality," he said. "Thoughtful, collaborative, and renewed efforts are required for the successful co-existence of humans and this endangered and symbolic whale species."

Govt also erred on glacier claims2 min read . Updated: 01 Feb 2010, 09:26 PM IST
Govt also erred on glacier claims
Govt also erred on glacier claims
New Delhi: It may have gone on an offensive against a controversial report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) on Indian glaciers disappearing by 2035, but till August, the ministry of environment and forests believed that Himalayan glaciers would disappear in the next 50 years.
The State of Environment Report 2009, a report put out by the Union government that is meant to be an up-to-date official view on environmental issues says that "...Himalayan glaciers could disappear in the next 50 years".
Union minister of state for environment Jairam Ramesh did not respond to multiple phone calls and emails seeking comment.
IPCC reported in 2007 that global warming was rapidly melting Himalayan glaciers and at the current rate, these would disappear by 2035.
In November, the environment ministry publicized a report by a former deputy director general of the Geological Survey of India, V.K. Raina, that disputed IPCC's report.
In January, IPCC's glacier claim was found to be faulty and based not on science but on a typo, and also used out of context as reported by Mint on 20 January.
IPCC subsequently retracted its claim on glaciers. A few days before it did so, Ramesh told PTI he was "vindicated".
The State of Environment Report, the third of its kind, is meant to guide policymakers and serve as a compendium of information on India's environmental resources, according to the report's preface.
The statements on the disappearing glaciers in the report appear flimsily sourced.
Development Alternatives (DA), a non-profit organization that prepared the report on behalf of the ministry, attributes it to a report by the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (Icimod), an intergovernmental research organization based in Kathmandu.
The centre's director-general Andreas Schild, however, denied publishing anything claiming that Himalayan glaciers would melt in 50 years. Neelam Rana, an environment scientist with DA, who worked on the section involving glaciers, said she sourced the statement from a Reuters news report.
The news report, dated 4 June 2007, coverage of a climate change conference organized by Icimod, quotes Surendra Shrestha, regional director at the United Nations Environment Programme for Asia and the Pacific as saying: "If the temperature continues to rise as it is, there will be no snow and ice in the Himalayas in 50 years."
A senior DA official said the State of Environment Report 2009 wasn't meant as a scientific document and that it had been vetted by the environment ministry.
"Scientific rigour was not the most important criterion. We've done our best to check the veracity of our data, but including perceptions of stakeholders was a key part of the exercise," said George Varughese, president, DA.
The date by which the glaciers would melt didn't really matter, said an executive at The Energy Research Institute (Teri), who referred to the State of Environment Report's glacier claim in an article that appeared in the Financial Chronicle on 26 January.
"I didn't know about this (the report's claim) till a few days ago... As I've stated in the column, the dates don't really matter. The overall point still remains that the Himalayan glaciers will melt rapidly, if nothing is done about greenhouse gas emissions," said Leena Srivastava, an executive director at Teri.
Teri chief R.K. Pachauri is also the head of IPCC.

All Victorian students deserve the opportunity to go to great schools
As part of the Education State, the Victorian Government is working hard to ensure Victorian schools give every child the best chance to thrive and succeed.
If the Commonwealth is serious about improving student learning outcomes, it needs to do its share. This is why Victoria is taking a strong stand against the Commonwealth's school funding proposal.
The proposed funding deal means Victorian public schools could miss out on $500 million a year.
As our state grows, fairer funding for all Victorian schools will ensure Victorian students have the support they need to reach their full potential, no matter which school they attend.
Since 2015-16, the Victorian Government has invested $10.8 billion across the education portfolios to make Victoria the Education State. This record level of investment has delivered Victoria's best ever NAPLAN results in reading and numeracy in 2018, showing impressive outcomes that can be achieved when education is a government priority.
Find out more about Education State initiatives and school programs in your area.
In 2011, David Gonski developed a method called the Schooling Resource Standard (SRS) to determine a fair funding level for all schools, based on the characteristics of a student.
Private schools will be funded under the Commonwealth's proposed funding arrangements at the full SRS – in fact, some are already funded above this amount. However, the Commonwealth is proposing a deal that will see Victorian public schools not funded at the full SRS level.
Victoria already provides the majority of funding to Victorian schools.
The Victorian Government has committed to increase funding to provide 75 per cent of the SRS for public schools. Victoria is calling on the Commonwealth to increase its funding commitment from 20 per cent to 25 per cent of the SRS for public schools, so that both private and public schools are fully and fairly funded.
