Assessment of Lessons Learned from Sida Support to Conflict Management and Peace Building - Final Report
Publication date:
Sida Evaluation
Series number:
SIPU International
Sida has commissioned an Assessment of Lessons Learned from Sida Support to Conflict Management and Peace Building to serve as an input for devising new strategies to support efforts and projects in peace building and conflict management. The study was conducted by a consortium of SIPU International AB, Sweden, the International Peace Research Institute (PRIO), Norway, and the Centre for Development Research (CDR), Denmark. Sida's support to conflict resolution activities is guided by the Strategy for Conflict Management and Peacebuilding (1999). Other strategies play a major role for Sida in determining its support for this category, such as the various country strategies and the Action Programme for Peacebuilding, Democracy, and Human Rights (1998). Sida uses 'conflict management' as a generic term for aid financed projects implemented during armed conflicts. 'Conflict prevention' covers activities whose main objective is to prevent violence. 'Peace building' refers to projects with the aim of influencing the parties involved in armed conflicts. Sida support is to give special consideration to promotion of dialogue and peace.

Kanye West's new album Yeezus is now five days away from release, and we still haven't heard a full studio version of any of its songs, which is nuts. But last night, Kanye held a listening session for the album in Basel, Switzerland, and he took the opportunity to perform a furious, passionate a capella rendition of "New Slaves." Someone in the crowd caught video of that performance and of Kanye playing the Daft Punk collab "On Sight" from a laptop. Also last night, on Kanye's website, Kanye posted a 30-second video of him performing a bit of "I Am A God" in a room with Rick Rubin, the album's executive producer. You can watch both of those videos below.
Yeezus is out 6/18 on Def Jam.

|A girl reads aloud in class in a dilapidated school building in Kabul, Afghanistan.
By Rachel Bonham Carter
NEW YORK, USA, 10 April 2006 – Around the world approximately 115 million children are out of school. At least half of those children live in countries affected by conflict, while many more are excluded from the basic right to an education because of natural disasters and other crises.
These issues are at the heart of a two-day conference – 'Education and Conflict: Research, Policy and Practice' – co-hosted by UNICEF at Oxford University in the United Kingdom. At the conference, which begins tomorrow, UNICEF representatives will share their experience from the field with academic and policy experts.
"We hope there can be some mutual reinforcement so people can learn from each other," says UNICEF's Chief of Education, Dr. Cream Wright. "Academics who are doing research will learn a bit more about the reality of what seems to be working in the field, and those practitioners who are working in the field can benefit from the insights that are coming from research work."

A foundation for peace
The key message of the conference is that education has a crucial preventive and rehabilitative part to play in meeting the needs and ensuring the rights of children before, during and after conflict situations. Rebecca Winthrop of the International Rescue Committee, who is the current Chair of the Inter-Agency Network for Education in Emergencies, is one of the featured speakers.
"Education in emergency and disaster contexts is very important," said Ms. Winthrop. "In the short-term acute phase, it protects children and provides psycho-social support and key life-saving messages. In the longer-term phase, it is life-sustaining because it provides key skills and empowers youth and adults to negotiate their way in a complicated environment.
"In the very long term," she added, "it can build the foundations for lasting peace and development by providing a whole generation with the skills they need to rebuild their country."
Education is a key element of UNICEF's response to emergencies. The organization is committed to having every child back in school within the first six to eight weeks following a crisis. This includes setting up temporary learning spaces and reopening schools, reintegrating teachers and children, and organizing recreational activities – all while paying special attention to the particular needs of girls.

Long-term partnership
To illustrate the issues surrounding education and conflict, four case studies will be presented at the conference from Afghanistan, Kosovo, Timor-Leste and Northern Ireland.
Speaking before his departure for Oxford, Dr. Wright described Southern Sudan as a good example of UNICEF's work on education in emergencies. A civil war that lasted for two decades wiped out most of the region's infrastructure and left three-quarters of its 10 million people unable to read or write. Then on 1 April this year, UNICEF, the Government of Sudan, various UN agencies, non-governmental and community organizations launched the 'Go to School' initiative, which aims to get 1.6 million children into school.
"It is very crucial because it is the first dividend for peace for Southern Sudan since the peace declaration was signed" in 2005, said Dr. Wright. "Many millions of people are wondering what this has brought for them. The fact that some sense of normalcy can begin again and children can start going to school again, there's a new sense of hope. Children can start thinking about the future again rather than hiding from the present."
The Oxford conference aims to produce a research agenda to guide policy-makers and academics in this emerging field. Dr. Wright will also present an outline of UNICEF's new strategy on education. He hopes the conference will be the start of a long-term partnership between UNICEF and the world of academic research.
"For all of us, ultimately," said Dr. Wright, "the goal is to have countries develop an education system that is self-fulfilling and can expand to reach all its citizens."

Tooth Fillings
Maintaining your oral hygiene is very important, not only for the aesthetic part of it but because we all want to keep our teeth healthy.
Unfortunately, sooner or later, you will probably experience some form of tooth decay or cavities, maybe even bigger problems such as dental caries. You should keep in mind that there is no need to worry as there are methods to save the troubled tooth.
Dental cavities are usually resolved by engaging a dentist in Singapore to apply tooth fillings on and around the affected tooth.
- Cost Tooth Fillings in Singapore
- Types of Tooth Fillings
What Causes Tooth Cavity
A tooth cavity is caused by the bacteria living in your mouth. These bacteria consume ingested sugars and produce acids. These acids come into contact with the tooth structure and damages it. Over time, the tissues of the teeth get broken down and this results in visible holes in your teeth.
People that consume high carbohydrates and sugary foods are more prone to tooth cavities.
As our body is unable to repair the cavity naturally, this results in toothaches and often require a dentist to seal up the holes through the proper application of tooth fillings. It is estimated that approximately 2.5 billion people have some form of dental cavities in their permanent tooth.
Symptoms of Tooth Cavity
For mild cases, the tooth cavities would be identified and sealed by your dentist during your regular dental examinations. This is usually done by a physical examination of the surfaces of your teeth by using a small mirror.
As the tooth cavities become larger and more severe, these symptoms may begin to develop.
You should visit your local dentist in Singapore immediately for a dental check-up if you might have any of the above symptoms.
What is a Tooth Filling?
Tooth fillings are a restorative material dentists use to treat tooth cavity. It comes in 4 different types and it restores the function/structure of damaged, decayed or worn teeth.
Tooth fillings are as a form of direct restorations, whereby the material is used to fill the cavity in your tooth and close the spaces so that bacteria are unable to enter. This prevents any further decay of the affected tooth.
What Happens During the Tooth Filling Treatment?
The tooth filling treatment process consists of these general steps:
Possible Issues
After the treatment, it is quite common to experience some form of tooth sensitivity. However, this usually resolves itself in a few weeks. During this period, it is recommended to avoid sweet foods, hot or cold foods or any foods that you noticed are causing your tooth to be sensitive.
Cases of allergies to a filling happen very rarely. They are usually associated with silver fillings, which cause itching and rashes of the skin.
Proper Maintenance of Tooth Fillings
It is important to maintain a strict regime of proper oral hygiene. Aside from brushing and flossing, it is recommended to use mouthwash that removes bacteria at least once a day. Also, make sure to visit your dentist on a regular basis as this is the best way to track down any cracks or leaks early.
In cases when you notice that your tooth has a sharp edge or if there is a visible crack missing from your filling, it is highly advisable to contact your local dentist as soon as possible.

Two top theater critics — Jeremy Gerard (Bloomberg News) and Linda Winer (Newsday) — broke with Broadway tradition and offered up informal reviews of the still-previewing "Turn Off the Dark" over the weekend. Both cited the decision by producers to open the show cold in New York without out-of-town tryouts but still charge theatergoers full prices for these preview performances which could reach a record number before the official debut Feb. 7.
The show's press rep Rick Miramontez responded to this breach of theater protocol with these words: "For a major critic to review a Broadway musical, or play for that matter, after only the twentieth preview, is disappointing and uncalled for. Whatever reason the critic or their editor may have, it does not mask the fact that for decades, musicals have developed in front of paying audiences before critics are invited. While we are certainly not naive about the media scrutiny attached to this production, as we have been accommodating throughout, this unprecedented new development is troubling, to say the least."
Winer focused on the response of the audience rather than her own thoughts while Gerard provided more of a review including comments on the score, book, and production design elements. However, he held back on assessing the performances, saying he will wait till the press is invited to the show in early February to weigh in on those.

After that, the administrator should prepare the new representatives and in addition to implement organization approaches viewing issues, for example, conduct, clothing standard, and working timetable, among others. The day spa manager should also be in charge of bookkeeping at the spa, monitoring the wage and adjusting accounts each day, or consistently, and making stores at the bank.

The spa manager may likewise be in charge of monitoring stock at the salon, and requesting new supplies as required. Advancing the day spa may be another substantial part of the employment, however numerous business outsource this work to publicizing organizations. Once more, it relies on upon the extent of the spa and the quantity of different representatives. Some spa supervisors may fill in as a component of an administrative group, which may likewise incorporate the proprietor of the spa. These are only a couple of the obligations that the chief of a spa may need to do in a day; it is a testing work with a lot of duty.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe told the U.N. General Assembly on Wednesday that North Korea's nuclear and missile threat had reached a new "dimension," menacing the peace of the entire region and meriting the strongest response from the Security Council.
"Mr. President, North Korea has now manifested itself directly before us as an open threat to peace. What can we do in response? The raison d'etre of the United Nations is now truly being tested," Abe said.
"North Korea launched SLBMs," Abe continued, referring to Pyongyang's submarine-launched ballistic missile test. "Immediately after that, it fired three ballistic missiles simultaneously, each traversing 1,000 kilometers to reach Japan's exclusive economic zone. It is purely a matter of good fortune that no commercial aircraft or ships suffered any damage during this incident."
He noted this brought the total of North Korean ballistic missile launches for 2016 to 21, not to mention their nuclear bomb tests in January and September. He said these tests "change the landscape completely."
"Right before our eyes, North Korea is carrying out a plan about which there can be no doubt. There is no alternative but to say that the threat has now reached a dimension altogether different from what has transpired until now," Abe declared.
He spoke of contacting the presidents of the United States and South Korea to arrange "close coordination" and a "resolute attitude" toward North Korea's transgressions and said it was now time for the U.N. Security Council to "indicate an unmistakable attitude towards this threat of a new dimension."
"This is a challenge posed to the conscience of humankind. Were we to overlook it, how would we justify it to our own consciences?" Abe asked.
He used a poetic metaphor to describe the threat North Korea poses to regional and world peace:
Peace is something very much like glass. When well-polished and transparent, we are not conscious of its presence. And a small crack can be overlooked for a while without giving rise to any changes.
But before you know it, the crack expands, and the glass in time shatters with a crash. That is why, day in and day out, we must continuously foster the habit of mind of handling glass with great care, so that no cracks form.
I believe the original intention of the United Nations, created in the wake of two world wars, was that kind of keen awareness.
For that very reason, it would simply be unacceptable to continue to tolerate military provocation. It isb ecause that would be an act equivalent to openly, and in broad daylight, setting a crack into glass.
Abe referenced North Korea's long campaign of abducting Japanese citizens, and its endless violation of its own citizens' human rights, to warn about the danger of such a malevolent entity gaining access to nuclear missiles, especially the kind that can be launched from submarines.
He said it was the "absolutely unfailing" and single-minded wish of the Japanese people for "world peace and the elimination of nuclear weapons," a "pledge to be passed down for generations not to stop walking along the path which would make that a reality."
Citing the scale of Japan's contributions to the United Nations, which exceed those of all other countries except the United States over the past 30 years, and the benefits other Asian nations have enjoyed from Japan's support for democracy — and sizable financial investments — Abe called for resolute action against both North Korea and another regional menace he didn't name directly: China.
Peace, stability, and security of the seas as well as freedom of navigation and overflight are the basis for the peace and prosperity of the international community.
Should there be disputes, the international community must adhere strictly to the principles that states shall make their claims based on international law, they shall not use force or coercion in trying to drive their claims, and they shall seek to settle disputes by peaceful means.
South Korea and the U.S. found an entirely different way to send a message to North Korea on Wednesday, as a South Korean official announced the two nations would "conduct a mock attack on a nuclear facility next month," as reported by CNN.
The official said there would also be drills to respond to sudden missile attacks.
Of course, care was taken to state that these drills are "not aimed particularly at North Korea." Pyongyang nevertheless responded to news of these exercises by denouncing the South Koreans as "puppet warmongers."
North Korea's state-run KCNA media said Seoul was "frightened by the daily increasing might of the DPRK," and warned that "remarks made by its dirty mouths and racket of confrontation with the DPRK would precipitate its miserable destruction."
The United States also announced on Wednesday that it had conducted a second flyover of the Korean demilitarized zone with B-1B bombers, to demonstrate that the strength of America's commitment "will not be shaken by North Korea's aggressive behavior," as 7th Air Force commander Lt. General Thomas W. Bergeson put it.

Why not judge a book by its cover: 5 best book cover artists of all time
Book cover art, needless to say, is a genre of its own. Here, we take a look at some of the best-known book cover artists and some of their iconic designs.books Updated: Aug 08, 2016 15:06 IST
It is the cover of a book that sets it apart from a horde of others on the shelf. Book cover art, needless to say, is a genre of its own. Here, we take a look at some of the best-known book cover artists and some of their iconic designs.
Robert E McGinnis (1926)
Now 90, McGinnis is currently creating a whole new line of retro covers for paperback re-releases of Neil Gaiman's 'American Gods' novels, soon to appear in adaptation on TV.
Read: Here's why you should judge a book by its cover
It is estimated that the illustrator has produced over 1200 paperback covers, and more than 40 posters, his most famous being the iconic 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' and 'Diamonds are Forever'. He is most known for his romance novel covers and the 'Hard Case Crime' paperback series covers.
Robert C Stanley (1918-1996)
Stanley also worked at Dell Publishing, and was — alongside Gregg — known as one of the most prolific cover artists of his generation. Other well-known publishers that Stanley produced covers for include Bantam, Beacon, Lion Books, Popular Library and Pyramid Books.
James Avati (1921-2005)
The late James Avati is widely recognised as one of the greatest paperback cover illustrators of all time, even called the 'Father of Paperback Book Covers' and the 'Rembrandt of Paperback Book Covers'.
Novelists he worked with during his career include William Faulkner, JD Salinger, John O'Hara, Mickey Spillane, Alberto Moravia, and James Michener. His work has been celebrated in a book 'The Paperback Art of James Avati', first published in 2005.
Robert Jonas (1907-2009)
Jonas's work is some of the most collectible in the cover art industry thanks to his distinctive abstract style, clearly influenced by the Bauhaus school of art.
Read: Famous book covers get a digital, magical twist
Working principally for Penguin and Mentor Publishing, the graphic artist was also a close friend of the abstract-expressionist Willem de Kooning.
Gerald Gregg (1907-1985)
Known for his abstract approach and airbrush technique, Gregg worked as a cover illustrator for Dell Publishing for seven years, producing some of his most famous work for their mysteries, often using the office's secretaries and stenographers as models.

The Philadelphia 76ers honored Kobe Bryant. Then they humbled him.
The franchis compiling the longest losing streak in the history of major North American team sports snapped the slump as a farewell present to the retiring veteran who went straight to the pros after playing high school basketball in the Philadelphia area. The more welcome goodbye gift came before the game in the form of a framed Lower Merion High School basketball jersey.
The 76ers defeated the Lakers 103 to 91 on the strength of Robert Covington's 23 points and Nerlens Noel's 14 points and nine rebounds off the bench. Bryant scored 20 points in defeat off of 7-for-26 shooting, including a woeful 4-for-17 behind the arc. After scoring the Lakers' first 11 points, Bryant performed horribly in part due to swarming defense, including a sensational swat by Jerami Grant.
On Tuesday night, the City of Brotherly Love finally cheered the shooting guard who, along with Shaquille O'Neal, buried the 76ers in the 2001 NBA Finals. When Bryant returned the following year for the All-Star Game, the Philadelphia Faithful lustily booed their not-so-favorite son. "Yeah, my feelings are hurt," Kobe told TV interviewer Jim Gray. "I mean, I'm just out there trying to play and have a good time. My feelings are hurt being from Philadelphia."
The fans picked on him. They did so perhaps because they kicked themselves for not picking him in 1996, bypassing Kobe (as 11 other teams bypassed him) for Allen Iverson, himself a future Hall of Famer but lacking a single ring to Bryant's five. The 76ers didn't say Kobe's name on draft day but their fans chanted it on his last day in Philadelphia wearing an NBA uniform.
Tuesday's victory puts the 76ers at 1-18 one season after they started 0-17 and two seasons after they lost 26 straight. The team last won a game in late March.
Bryant's Lakers sink to 2-15, giving them the worst record in the West. They work on breaking a seven-game skid, now tied for a league-worst losing streak with the Denver Nuggets, in Washington on Wednesday night.

It sure was difficult choosing a recipe from the Military Wives Cookbook. You may just want to check my post for yesterday to find out how you can win a free copy. Oh, you didn't know I was having a Free Cookbook Give-Away! Hurry back...
At first, I was going to post the recipe for Peach Nectar & Basil Lemonade found on page 27. Perfect for the beginning of National Herb Week which began on May 3rd. And, so refreshing too! However, the Herb of the Year for 2009 is Bay Laurel. I browsed through the Military Wives Cookbook, or should I say, I b..r..o..w..s..e..d. There's much to see you know. I finally decided on Santa Maria Style Barbecue recipes. A GREAT combination of recipes for Barbecue Month, Salsa Month, and Salad Month all in the month of May. Perfecto!
As an admitted "Air Force Brat," the author, Carolyn Quick Tillery, had the opportunity to travel all over the world. When she and her husband were reassigned to the central coast of California, she rediscovered the Barbecue Capital of California, Santa Maria. Mrs. Tillery shares a brief history of the Santa Maria Style Barbecue on page 204 in the Military Wives Cookbook. Rather than repeat it here, because I dying to share her recipe, I found the unique story of the the barbecue born and bred on the central coast of California online. (I left The Story of the Santa Maria Style Barbecue below also:) Not only does the town of Santa Maria have its own distinct style of barbecue, it's copyrighted in order to prevent commercial establishments from advertising their barbecue as the "real thing." Yes, indeed, by the Santa Barbara County local Chamber of Commerce. Hold your horses, there's more! Traditionally, Santa Marians also have their own cut of meat; the Tri Tip. What, you never heard of the Tri Tip? Quite frankly, neither had I. There could be a reason. The Tri Tip Steak, which also happened to be quite inexpensive, had its beginnings in Santa Maria. A former butcher by the name of Larry Viegas, shared the story of triangle steak, that's another name for it, with Via Magazine back in 2003.
Viegas, a former butcher and barbecue cook extraordinaire, had come armed with diagrams of a cow and a well-rehearsed argument about tri-tip, a triangular cut of meat found on the bottom edge of a top sirloin. This flavorful portion, which weighs in at 2½ to three pounds, perfect for a family barbecue, came into vogue in the late 1950s. Considered a stepchild of sirloin, tri-tip had previously been discarded or cut into chunks for stew, but when it was roasted whole, barbecue magic happened. It is now the choice of Santa Maria's home barbecue chefs, although, as I would learn later, something of a controversy surrounds the use of tri-tip.
What happened later is as they say, history! "Visitors and workers transferring from Vandenberg Air Force Base slowly spread the word. "People from the (San Joaquin) Valley were coming over here and buying it by the case and taking it back for barbecuing," Viegas recalls. To this day, Santa Maria Style Barbecue Draws Foodies From Around the World.
The triangle cut of meat was typically used for ground beef or sliced into steaks until the late 1950s. A quick trip to The Magazine for the National Barbecue Association goes into a side of detail, thanks to Laura Mohammad.
A Santa Maria, Calif., butcher remembers the beginnings of the tri tip. Larry Viegas is quoted on the Santa Maria Elks Lodge 1538 website about his observing a Safeway meat manager in the late 1950s save a small piece of meat that was about to be wasted, and experimenting with it. He found that the piece of meat – at 90 cents a pound as opposed to top sirloin at $1.90-$1.95 a pound – was surprisingly tender.
It would not find its renown until the manager, Bob Shutz, who had dubbed the piece of meat "tri tip," opened his own meat market and began promoting it. The tri tip became a favorite in Santa Maria, and news spread throughout the state over the next two decades.
Using select pieces, Vickers trims the fat and cooks the tri tips at 225 F for two to two-and-a-half hours, making them rare to medium rare. He likes to use hardwood oak and a little hickory. Some pit masters will cook on medium-hot coals for 30-45 minutes, making the meat rare to medium-rare. "It's like cooking a big, thick sirloin steak," he says. The tri tip weighs three pounds. A trimmed tri tip runs about $3.77 a pound in California and is easily available there. "It's hard to find outside of California," says Vickers, although a good butcher can order it for you.
Okay, as we have often discovered "traditional" ingredients often get ground into a round-up of legends. Santa Maria Style Barbecue is not without its beefs. Some say Tri-Tip is not the authentic choice of beef and that boneless top sirloin is just as "barbecueable." Others say "Santa Maria Style" barbecue is usually used in reference to the seasoning and cooked whole on a rotissere. Most agree on the complimentary side dishes which are usually, garlic bread, Santa Maria Pinquito Beans, Santa Maria Salsa, and Santa Maria Macaroni and Cheese. Actually, Mrs. Tillery doesn't quite say it like that. Here are her words from The Military Wives Cookbook.
Traditionally, Santa Maria-style barbecue consists of top block sirloin, which is seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder and cooked slowly over native red wood coals. The main course is served with tossed salad, beans, salsa, French bread toasted on the pit and then dipped in garlic butter, and sometimes macaroni and cheese...Although some purists may protest its authenticity, you may also use smaller tri-tip cut. Also known as a bottom cut, no one knew what to do with the triangular cut until a Santa Maria butcher used the now legendary seasoning and placed it on a rack in his rotisserie.
The Recipes
I found a source for Pinquito Beans online and also a Santa Maria Style Pinquito Beans recipe which the contributor notes that they are usually only available locally. While I was at it, I thought I would also leave a link for Santa Maria Style Salsa. (May is also National Salsa Month )
I'm going to include the Santa Maria Style Barbecue recipe from The Military Wives Cookbook as it is written in paragraph form in the cookbook. I am also going to scan the recipe for Santa Maria Style Macaroni and Cheese from the book. (click to enlarge) If you haven't already seen the details on how to Win a free copy of The Military Wives Cookbook, I left the link below along with a few additional resources. There's one link below, which offers a driving route in search of the best fund raising barbecue. Supposedly the best places to find a tasty Santa Maria Style Barbecue. If you're wondering what to make for dessert, pop on over to Coco Cooks. Courtney whipped up the Old Fashioned Banana Pudding recipe from the book AND, She's having a Military Wives Cookbook Give-Away too. Enjoy!
|Combine 1 tablespoon of salt with 1/2 teaspoon coarse ground pepper and 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt. Traditionally, oak-wood logs are placed in a pit with moveable grate. However, backyard chefs can also use charcoal mixed with oak-wood chips. The fire should be hot but not blazing. Place your hands two or three inches over the grill. If you can count to ten before removing your hand then the fire is ready.
Tips for Success: Do not trim the fat before putting the meat on the grill. If cooking more than one cut and using steel rods, alternate fat and lean sides for an even distribution of the juices.
Otherwise, place meat on grill and adjust so meat is 2 to 3 inches from the coals. Sear the lean meat part of the meat over the fire for the first 5 to 10 minutes to seal in the juices. Move the meat to 6-8 inches from the coals. Then flip over to the fat side for another 35-45 minutes. When juice appears at the top of the meat, it is time to flip it again. Cook to the desired degree of doneness (130 degree for rare)
Finally, it is important to slice tri-tip against the grain, the long way, not across the triangle. It will not be uniform, but it will be more tender. This cut of meat is best when served immediately after cooking.

CNN Political Commentator and former White House Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation Van Jones said that Hillary Clinton is "playing the grandma card" on Wednesday's "New Day" on CNN.
"Well, in some ways she's playing what I would call the grandma card here. She's not playing to the DC elite that's trying to figure out, you know, all the rules around federal disclosure. she's saying, 'listen, guys, this stuff's complicated. I was trying to make my own life work better.' Does it pass muster for a lot of DC people? No, it doesn't. But, I think for ordinary people, they say 'you know what, actually, I got a bunch of devices. If I were Secretary of State, I'm running all around the world, I might want to have just one device.' Now, it's true that I know how to have, on my one device, lots of e-mail accounts and I manage them. But, she's really — in some ways I think people are — people in the DC circuit are missing this. She's playing the grandma card to the heartland. 'Look, my motives were not negative. My motives were good. I wanted to do a good job. I wanted to have convenience for myself.' That's what she's doing" he stated.

If you enjoyed my essay Granny's House, you will love Maine by J. Courtney Sullivan. I wrote the essay for a class at NYU and a classmate recommended I read Maine, but it wasn't until I was on vacation in Cape Cod and saw a sign for a book signing that I got a copy (and got to meet the author!). Alice, the family matriarch in the book, reminded me so much of Granny, and I definitely saw some of my other relatives in the book as well. Maine is a great beach or non-beach read.
I had been meaning to read Sometimes I Feel Like a Nut: Essays and Observations by Jill Kargman for a while as well. Kargman has written some of my favorite books about life in New York City, like Momzillas and The Right Address. Sometimes is collection of essays with funny stories from her childhood through adulthood that feel like chatting with a friend over cocktails. Bonus points since Drew Barrymore is now her sister-in-law.
Last September I went to Andy Cohen's book signing for Most Talkative in New York but hadn't yet read it because I must have some strange disorder in which I always buy and check out more books than I will ever have time to read and then feel overwhelmed when I get caught up with things like work and moving and don't get to my pile. Well, friends, that ends this month, as I am currently in the middle of Most Talkative. What's inspiring about Andy's memoirs is how much his passion for what he does comes through. Even as a college student, he worshiped Susan Lucci/Erica Kane (he and my mom share an obsession with All My Children) and loved discussing the plots of his favorite soaps. Now he is Executive VP at Bravo – bringing is the best reality soaps of our time: the Real Housewives! – and the host of Watch What Happens Live. Here we are at the signing:

Following the publication of the Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group's report on findings from their Phase One consultation, North Oxfordshire MP Victoria Prentis has commented:
"I have read the Clinical Commissioning Group's report and think it provides a comprehensive overview of the Phase One consultation findings. While I appreciate that CCG Board members will have the opportunity to look at the report when they meet next week, I am keen to understand what the next steps will be as soon as possible.
"We know that the Board will be making decisions in August, but at the moment we have no idea what the final proposals will look like. It is quite clear from the report that consultees were not given sufficient information to provide informed responses. I continue to be extremely concerned about the split nature of the consultation.
"How we move forward remains unclear, but I will be doing all I can to get the answers we need and to retain acute services at the Horton General Hospital."
Victoria has also written directly to the Chief Executive of the Clinical Commissioning Group to seek clarification on the timetable going forward.
The Consultation Report is available at: http://www.oxfordshireccg.nhs.uk/documents/meetings/board/2017/06/2017-06-13-final-consultation-report.pdf

What I'm Seeing This Week2012, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, and Youth in Revolt. I'm oddly excited for all three of these films, though for wildly divergent reasons. 2012 looks to be either a heap of fun or an absolute disaster (which could be fun). Fantastic Mr. Fox is another chance to peek inside Wes Anderson's brain, a fascinating and worthwhile cinematic vacation. Youth in Revolt was one of my favorite books of the past decade, and I think Michael Cera is the perfect Nick Twisp. So I'm hopeful!
What I Saw Last Week
A Chistmas Carol, The Box, and Pirate Radio. I can't talk about the third one until the Friday release but I reviewed Christmas Carol and The Box here and here. You really should see The Box if you get a chance, not so much for what's presented onscreen, but rather for the conversations you'll have afterward.

Today's Movie Stories on the Internets
The New York Times is throwing around the "half a billion dollar" budget number for Avatar. I'm of two minds regarding budgets. First off, I think we set our expectations based upon them, which is unfair to both the art and the artists. However, where I do get personally concerned about budgets is the sustainability factor. Giving $150 million to Zemeckis to make A Christmas Carol isn't a sustainable choice if the studios want to survive. The money, to put it very simply, could have been spent in a more interesting manner. I'd rather see a dozen films in the $30-$40 million range than four monstrosities. And really, can't you do an awful lot with $30 million these days?

Could Seann William Scott be the most underrated comedic actor of the decade? It seems preposterous on the face of it, I know, but consider the body of work:
Road Trip (Breakthrough film for Todd Phillips)
Dude, Where's My Car (wildly underrated)
Old School (he's in the scene where Will Ferrell shoots himself in the neck with a tranq dart)
The Rundown (wildly underrated)
Ice Age & Ice Age 2 (He voiced Crash, the wacky possum)
Role Models (wildly underrated)
Yes, there were bombs I omitted from the record, but there's no one else out there with the high notes of Seann William Scott who is not a household name. People know Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, and Will Ferrell. Almost no one has heard of Seann William Scott, and yet there he is, in some of the stronger comedies of the decade. Could it be that people are holding that extra N in Seann against him?

Thursday in Washington, D.C. at the Faith and Freedom Coalition's Road to Majority Conference, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) addressed the Charleston church shooting.
Paul said, "We had the shooting this morning in South Carolina. What kind of person goes in a church and shoots nine people? There's a sickness in our country. There's something terribly wrong. But it isn't going to be fixed by your government. It's people straying away. It's people not understanding where salvation comes from. And I think that if we understand that, we'll understand and have better expectations of what we get from our government."

On 21 April 2017, ASIC signed a Cooperation Agreement with Indonesia's Otoritas Jasa Keuangan establishing a framework for information sharing on emerging market trends and regulatory issues in the expanding space of innovation in financial services. Acknowledging the vital role of fintech in shaping the current global financial services landscape, this agreement is another step forward for ASIC following prior agreements with other international regulators including the Monetary Authority of Singapore, the Ontario Securities Commission, Capital Markets Authority in Kenya and the FCA.
ASIC chairman Greg Medcraft, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for Cyber Security Dan Tehan, and ASX deputy CEO Peter Hion also led an Australian fintech delegation to London in mid-April. Aimed at improving opportunities for tech collaboration between Australia and Britain, the delegation's trip comes off the back of a reciprocal visit from ten UK fintech startups to Sydney and Melbourne in March.

It seems like every day I hear about a new travel technology, a new pitch from a travel start-up, or a tale of a future where traditional travel-related technology (e.g., expense reporting tools, online booking tools, TMCs) is replaced by a "new-wave," "Google-ized," "Big Data," and/or "artificial intelligence" solution. These new travel technologies are designed to save travelers money and make them more productive, informed, smart, happy and mobile. But quite often, they violate current corporate travel policy. Even I sometimes ignore my company's policy by using a car service app on my iPhone (my guilty pleasure).
So what should your company do? Should you "love it" and let your employees find the best technologies in the marketplace? Or should you "leave it" and lay down the law, knowing that enforcing consistency among technologies (as well as related policies, processes and preferred vendors) will be best in the long run?
There's no single right answer for everyone, but here are some basic considerations.
Small Company
If you're part of a very small company (i.e., fewer than 20 employees, less than $150,000 in annual travel spending, and no employee with the word "travel" in their title), then let technology happen. Deploy a simple expense-reporting tool—you still need something to gather the expense data and provide the accountants with the numbers—but let people have some fun exploring additional travel-related technologies for their business travel. Just make sure their travel expenses are legitimate and not excessive.
Everyone Else
The rest of us need to decide if our travel and expense program is going to be open, closed or somewhere in between. If it's closed, then every employee should be using company-approved processes, policies and technologies (both systems and applications). No using Airbnb for $100/night rooms or "Ubering" their next cab. You want controls and consistency. You want to leverage your spending and support your preferred vendors. Your policies and communications to employees should support that.
An open system might provide core services to employees—an online booking tool, an expense reimbursement tool, a travel management company, a corporate card, status with certain preferred vendors—but if they choose a different path, so be it. If the expenses are legitimate and the right amount is being reimbursed and entered in the accounting systems, all will be OK.
So, with all these new travel technologies, should you love them or leave them? Here's what I think:
Core travel technologies (i.e., expense systems) should be just that – core.And required. They manage your core processes (booking travel and reimbursing travel). The leading systems will eventually integrate many of the bells and whistles your employees crave.
Let employees use some non-core applications. I've used some great apps to help me speak Portuguese when visiting Brazil, tell me if my flight is on time, help me choose my seat on the plane, and tell me who'll be sitting next to me. None of these technologies hurts anyone, but if our travelers don't use our preferred vendors, corporate cards, or expense tools, they do hurt the company. Set clear guidelines around this to achieve a happy medium.
If you can't beat them, join them... and lead them! There's nothing wrong with approving employee use of websites or apps that you don't have to implement, pay for, or own (although they should be monitored). This way you can turn the screws on the important things, but still be helpful, fun, flexible and informative when it comes to using technology to enhance your employees' business-travel experiences.

Before you go to your stupid protest with a sign that reads "Fuck Capitalism" why not pull your head out of your ass and try to learn something?
You don't even need to crack open a book. Just look at pictures of North Korea versus South Korea to figure it out. Same people, same geography, same history, same language, but vastly different results. What's the difference? Yes, capitalism.
Without capitalism you have nothing. Literally. So put your stupid sign away, you're embarrassing yourself.
It isn't capitalism that is the problem. It is evil, violent criminals who steal the wealth that capitalism gives us. Figure it out, dummy. If we had your Marxist revolution we would all starve to death.

The Nordpeis Smarty Classic 5kw wood burning stove blends retro style with modern technology. Full description
Save up to £XX.XX when buying add ons
The Nordpeis Smarty Classic wood burning stove is inspired by the 1970's, the subtle curved lines and chrome handle give the stove a contemporary design.
The Smarty Classic will make a stunning focal point in any room.
Features include an airwash system to help keep the glass clean and clear and a cleanburn system so fuel burns efficiently resulting in more heat delivery into the room and less escaping up the chimney.
The Smarty benefits from an optional external air combustion kit to allow the choice of an external air supply if desired. This enables the stove to draw its combustion air from directly outside the property into the stove rather than drawing air from within the room.

BARB volunteers thanked during the charity's AGM
Two long-serving hovercraft pilots at Burnham charity BARB
were thanked for their eight years of volunteering during the
group's AGM on Friday (May 24th).
EDF regional boss David Eccles was the special guest at the meeting,
held at Burnham's Princess Theatre. He heard about a busy 12 months
for the life-saving charity, which is now in its 21st year.
told the audience he is a "strong supporter" of Burnham's
marine rescue services and was honoured to have been invited,
adding that he hoped the visit would "create stronger links
between Burnham and Hinkley Point."
was given a tour of the hovercraft station by BARB's crew and
also visited Burnham Coastguards, the RNLI and Burnham's community-run
tourist information centre during the evening.
volunteers Dave Bailey and Clive Weal, who have retired after
eight and a half year's service as hovercraft pilots, were thanked
for their dedication and involvement. They were presented with
certificates and the annual telescope award, which is given to
those volunteers who have contributed most to the charity's welfare.
Chairman Mark Newman thanked the charity's many fundraisers and
supporters for their "hugely appreciated support" over
the year. Among those highlighted were Brean's Diamond Farm Holiday
Park, Burnham's Trinity Close Christmas Lights Team, Somerset
Motorcycle Group, Burnham Lions and Burnham Moose Lodge.
Manager Mike Lowe praised BARB's volunteers and their families
for their "tremendous support and team spirit" during
a busy, and at times challenging, year.
were presented to several of the charity's recent fundraisers
and crew by BARB President Neville Jones and Mr Eccles.
the election of officers, those re-appointed were Chairman Mark
Newman, Operations Manager Mike Lowe, Deputy Operations Manager
Graham Hallsworth, BARB Treasurer Mike Ross and BARB Secretary
Roger Flower. A new Vice Chairman, Julie Dean, was elected.
Mayor Martin Cox was also in attendance, representing the Town

Self portraiture is a difficult exercise for me, as quite often autobiographical.. It is a way to expose myself, and in photography as in every art you have to expose yourself and your work, which is still something new and very personal and intimidating for me.
This doll, this little me, is my imagined life, my offspring, as this new web which represents the outcome of the last 10 years of work.
L'autoportrait est un exercice très difficile pour moi, car très souvent autobiographique.. c'est une manière de m'exposer. Dans la photographie comme dans tout art il est nécessaire de s'exposer et d'exposer son travail, ce qui est relativement nouveau pour moi, de très personnel et intimidant.
Cette poupée, cette petite moi, est ma vie imaginée, tout comme cette page web qui est le fruit de ces 10 années de travail.

text: "Woe Is Me and You" is the sound of the moments right before you rub the sleep out of your eyes. The band's slumberous psych-folk hazy daze before the cobwebs get shook lose from the noggin'. When singer Ryan opens his mouth his melancholy slacker croon & squeak sounds as if it's being awoken directly out of REM sleep. And what was he dreaming about? Something that everyone with everyday problems can deal with (especially in these problematic times). Are the dreams in color? Judging from a sound that corners Syd Barrett abstractness in a basement of dingy audio aesthetics it's only safe to guess if they do it switches between washed out tones and smeared vibrancy. Their take on the standard "Baby, Please Dont Go" is far from the standard rock workout that has been crammed down throats and ingrained in many of a mind thanks to the familiar takes by Them and the Amboy Dukes for the last 100 years with their woozy and somnambulistic rendition of it.

What is a Common Denominator?
The denominator of a fraction is the number on the bottom. When we say that fractions have a common denominator, it means they have the same number on the bottom.
The denominator of a fraction is the number of equal parts that the whole has been split into. When two fractions have a common denominator, that means both wholes have been divided into the same number of equal pieces and each piece is the same size.
How Do You Add Fractions?
In order to add fractions, the fractions must have a common denominator. We need the pieces of each fraction to be the same size to combine them together.
Let's say we need to add 2/7 and 3/7 together. These two fractions have the same denominator, so the equal parts that the whole has been split into are the same size. Since the pieces are all the same size, we can add these two fractions together.
We can add 2/7 to the 3/7 by filling in an additional 2 boxes in the diagram. We can see that this gives us a sum of 5/7.
If you're adding two fractions with a common denominator, you can combine them together by adding the numerators together (the top numbers). The denominator will always stay the same because the size of the equal pieces does not change when you combine the two fractions together.
For example, let's say you have 1/10 + 6/10. They have the same denominator, so they can be combined together. Add the numerators (1 + 6 = 7). Keep the denominator the same (the bottom number stays a 10). Remember, the denominator does not change because the sizes of the pieces stay the same. You're just counting up the total number of pieces between the two fractions.
Here's a visual way to look at the same problem:
