In Frantz, Adrien (Pierre Niney) leaves flowers in Frantz's tomb, under the watchful eye of Anna (Paula Beer). Anna visits Frantz's tomb every day, he was his fiancé, who died in the First World War. She watches with curiosity while she asks herself who this young mysterious-looking man who visits Frantz's tomb might be. Adrien has traveled from France to Germany to meet Frantz's family, entering an unpredictable and sentimental labyrinth.
Inspired by The Broken Lullaby (Ernst Lubitsch, 1932), François Ozon draws an elegant and poetic picture about a love story in post-World War I Germany. The painting Suicide by Édouard Manet (not famous at all compared to Manet's other paintings) is one more character in the film, a dramatic and somber picture, a metaphor for the feeling of pain and sadness that Europe was experiencing at that time. Manet's painting contrasts upon impact with the rest of his work, which is so bright. This elegant drama serves Ozon as inspiration for the things he wants to transmit and the way he wants to transmit them.
Frantz is, perhaps, his best work, or at least the one that better defines him as an auteur. Although in this case he seems to distance himself from his personal style of telling stories – the one we saw in Dans la maison (2012), Jeune & Jolie (2013) and Une nouvelle amie (2014) – beneath its classic movie look Frantz has many similarities and clear references to the rest of his work: his interest in identity changes and the need to sneak into the lives of others is the leitmotiv of his filmography. Characters are transformed sentimentally to survive and move on in the film.
The most interesting thing about the film is the reflection on the need to create universes through pious lies or half-truths in order to survive in a crude and complicated world. Sometimes the truth hurts and hurts a lot; the weight of carrying a lie (which relieves) can be less than the weight of the truth, especially when you know that the lie produces something good to those people that you have next. Through a smooth transition, Ozon transforms a complex drama into an optimistic story that looks forward, focusing on the future that lies ahead.
Ozon manages in an almost organic way the changes of point of view in the narration as the film advances, performing an exquisite work of assembly. The black and white recourse for painful reality and the use of color for the bucolic universe of "what could have been" is extremely poetic.
The word that can define this film is delicacy, and Paula Beer (Best Actress Marcello Mastroianni Award – Venice Film Festival 2016) is partly the culprit. Her sight and her light illuminate everything, giving the Frantz an aura of sensitivity and elegance that floods the whole film.

She became a film buff during college, splitting her time between books on energy & fuels and film seminars. She began reviewing in 2014, covering the San Sebastián film festival.

There's no doubt that apples are good for you. A single apple has all of 70 calories but contains over 3 grams of fiber. Sweet and satisfying, snacking on apples is the perfect way to get healthy.
There are dozens of apple choices in the markets today. Alongside the traditional delicious and Granny Smiths more and more heirloom varieties are available. Below are some of the apples that I use in recipes on the Dr. Gourmet website. Because of their ready availability I have generally used more common varieties because I know that most readers will be able to easily find them in the grocery. Apple Types
This Apple Cinnamon quick bread is a great comfort food. Warm and inviting with the spicy cinnamon aroma, just having this one in the oven makes the house more homey. The loaf will keep well for about 3 - 4 days and it's best to cut two thin slices and toast them lightly in the oven or toaster oven. Apple Cinnamon Bread

Lombok is located to the east of Bali and is geographically the same size. Just as Bali welcomes a wide cross-section of tourists, Lombok, though not as well known, has a wide range of destinations guaranteed to suit even the most discerning visitors. With its pristine white-sandy beaches, the magnificent Mt Rinjani volcano, and spectacular marine life to discover, the island of Lombok in West Nusa Tenggara has no shortage of attractions both in, and out of the water.
Transportation in Lombok
To get to Lombok, you can travel by air, ferry or fast boat. There are daily flights between Denpasar, Bali and the capital of Lombok, Mataram. Lombok's Selaparang Airport is located on the northern side of Mataram. The public ferry travels between Padangbai (Bali) and Lembar (Lombok) multiple times a day, and the trip takes roughly four hours.
Explore Lombok
There is a traditional handweaving village in Puyung in central Lombok where visitors can try on a traditional Sasak costume, and the village of Sukarare is a must visit for kain ikat or handwoven textiles. Lombok is also known for its magnificent South Sea cultured pearls grown in pristine waters around the island. Lombok pottery has gained in popularity and is now shipped all over the world.
Activities in Lombok
Popular tourist resort area, Senggigi, is a township that's positioned on a sweeping bay – providing magnificent views of a rich, fiery red sunset over neighbouring Bali. Visitors to Lombok also flock to one of the three Gili islands – Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air. These secluded tropical islands are just a short 20-minute boat ride from Senggigi.
Lombok's Essentials
Whether you wish to surf the massive breaks on the south coast, challenge yourself with a trek up steep volcanic peaks, or hire a bike and cycle through lush, abundant rice paddies – you won't be disappointed with the spectacular natural beauty of Lombok. The island enjoys a tropical climate with warm and humid weather all year round with a temperature range of 21°C to 32°C.

Roofers Insurance
Are you a roofing contractor or construction business in the United States looking for liability insurance? If so, our insurance team at Contractors Liability® is ready to answer some common questions for you and provide you with a free quote as well.
What is Roofers Insurance?
Roofers Liability Insurance protects you from unexpected accidents that may happen to your clients or a third party on the work site. For example, if someone becomes injured, or your project causes damages to someone else's property, you may be required to pay thousands of dollars to cover the loss. In some states, you can have the ability to bid for contracts and projects without Roofers Insurance, but if you want to get started on the site with your tools and ideas in hand, you may be required by a property owner or the government to show proof of insurance before you get started.
Why choose Contractors Liability for your Roofers Insurance?
After a long hard winter, many homeowners and people across the nation will need roofing work. This is great news for independent roofing contractors who will see an increase in business. Don't get stuck worrying about accidents. If you are a new contractor or just one who has not been insured before, you need to get roofers insurance to givepeace of mind. Below are the most commonly asked questions about Roofers Liability. If you have any other questions, feel free to fill out our contact form and we will respond to you within the same day.
What Will Roofers Insurance Cover?
Generally Roofers Insurance will cover you in five basic areas:
- Injuries to the Body: Bodily injuries that accidentally happen to clients or others persons on the work site.
- Damages to Property: This covers damages to the clients property that are a result of your work.
- Personal Injury: This refers to accidental damages to a person's image or business reputation as a result of your project.

What Happens if One of My Employees Gets Injured on the Job?
If one of your employees get's injured on the job, Roofers Insurance will not cover their injury, medical bills or any of the costs related to getting legal defense. To cover your employees from unexpected accidents you will need to get Worker's Compensation Insurance.
What Is the Difference Between Roofers Insurance and General Contractors Insurance?
If you are a roofer, you obviously need Roofers Liability because it is specifically tailored for your needs. However, if you are a contractor that hires a subcontractor to do roofing for you, then you need to get insurance specifically for subcontracting. If you are unsure which insurance you need, fill out the form to get a quote or call us now at 1-866-225-1950 so we can help you determine if you need Roofers Liability Insurance.
How Much is Roofers Insurance?
The biggest question any contractor has is "how much will this cost me," and unfortunately there is no simple answer. One way to get a general idea of how much coverage costs is to have a look at our trades pricing. The best way to find out what costs you will be looking at is to get a general liability insurance quote. There are many variables to take into account when you are getting insurance. Companies will look at how large your business is, what kinds of jobs you take on and what kind of coverage you want. An example is that a $100,000 liability policy is going to cost less overall than a $200,000,000 policy. If you only do roofing work for residential areas, you won't need as much coverage as someone who does a great deal of large scale commercial work.
What Happens if I Don't Get Roofers Insurance?
It is an expense, but it is one that needs to be factored into your business expenses because not having it will cost you more in the end. If you don't have insurance and something goes wrong on a client's site or with your advertising and you face a lawsuit, you could lose your entire business and worse.
How Can I Get Roofers Insurance?
You can shop around between different insurance companies to compare for prices and different policies. This will definitely cost you lots of time and energy. However, Roofers Insurance is easy to get with ContractorsLiability.com. Once you enter for a quote, we will shop around for the best insurance to meet your needs and your budget.

This touch screen is made by our remarkably expert pros using hottest know-how & prime top quality of electrical elements. At the same time, our touch screen is comes in many customized solutions in accordance with The shopper's preference.
The voltage placed on this layer makes a voltage gradient over the ITO. The voltage linearly improvements in the minimum amount drive voltage at one end to the maximum drive voltage at the other end. The opposing layer, via a path as a result of its ITO and silver ink connections, is used to evaluate the voltage at The purpose of Call around the voltage driven layer. This process is recurring, alternating functions of The 2 layers to obtain a measurement on one other axis.
Due to these core dissimilarities, the knowledge of applying Each and every type of touchscreen is nearly right away recognisable. Essentially the most well known telephone of the last handful of a long time, Apple's apple iphone, utilizes a capacitive touchscreen, which helps you to provide the telephone its 'gentle touch' interface.

Effects of active video game intervention on promoting physical activity among Hong Kong Chinese children

Background: It is widely recommended that children engage in at least 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per day for health, well-being and development benefits. However, few Hong Kong children are physically active. Environmental factors unique to Hong Kong, such as dense population, highly urbanized, and high level of outdoor air pollution, suggest need to develop indoor PA programs. Active video games (AVGs) may provide an innovative approach to designing such indoor programs. Aim: This thesis sought to identify opportunities for interventions using AVGs to promote PA among children, and to develop and evaluate the effect of an AVG intervention on PA among Hong Kong Chinese children. We also intended to clarify the mechanisms of the intervention. Methods: Three studies were undertaken for the aim of the thesis. First, a systematic review was conducted to evaluate the effects of AVGs on PA and PA-related outcomes (i.e. psychosocial factors and fitness) among healthy children. Secondly, a validation study was conducted that examined the validity and reliability of three scales used to measure PA-related self-efficacy, social support, and enjoyment among Hong Kong Chinese children aged 9-12 years (n=273). Third, a quasi-experimental study was conducted that examined the effects of a school-based AVG intervention on PA, sedentary time, body composition, and psychosocial factors (self-efficacy, social support, and enjoyment) among Hong Kong children aged 9-12 years (n=87). Moderation and mediation effects of psychosocial factors on PA were also tested in the study. Results: In the first study, fifty-four articles were identified in the review. AVG led to light to moderate intensity PA among children. No effect was identified of AVG on PA in the home setting. Structured AVG play (i.e. AVG play of participants organized by teachers or researchers) may improve PA. However, none of the previous school-based AVG interventions have measured habitual PA objectively. In the second study, confirmatory factor analyses supported the one-factor structure of the tested scales. All of the psychosocial factors (self-efficacy, social support from family, social support from friends, and enjoyment) were significantly (p<0.01) associated with self-reported PA (r ranged from 0.23-0.40). All of the scales suggested acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha>0.7) and test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient>0.7). The third study found that an AVG intervention delivered during after-school hours, approximately twice a week, significantly (p<0.05) increased total PA (counts per minute) and reduced sedentary behavior at week 8. However, this treatment effect was not maintained at 15 weeks when the frequency of AVG play decreased to approximately once a week during weeks 9-15. No significant differences were noted on body mass index z score and percentage body fat, and PA related psychosocial factors. The measured psychosocial factors did not act as mediators or moderators in this intervention. Discussion: AVGs may be useful to promote PA of children when it is structured. Future interventions should consider the frequency of AVG play in order to increase PA. AVG play should occur at least twice a week based on current research. Other components may be necessary to enhance the treatment effects of AVG interventions on PA among children.

A memory a day 1 - Big things for little people
So I have a set a new project for myself to help practice my retrieving and drawing from memory. I figured where best to start than my earliest memories. So a memory a day starts a journal of snippets of little old me and I'm sure will include many other cherished friends and family as time goes on.
Here's number 1! About 4 or 5 years old, going to Springbank school in Leeds. I remember how much I loved this giant baseball boot bag I had for first days at school. (It probably wasn't quite this big but it certainly felt like it!) I wonder if this is what spawned a love of bags and all things oversized and silly!

Free 2nd Day Shipping on All Orders
Serves 1 to 2
This recipe requires a bit of forethought, as the gigante beans (an oversized white bean common in Mediterranean cuisine) must be soaked overnight.
Soak gigante beans overnight in cold water. Rinse the beans, and add to pot with fresh cold water. Add carrots, celery, sage, rosemary, peppercorns, and garlic. Bring pot to a boil, then simmer until soft (20 to 25 minutes). Remove pot from heat and set aside to cool. Once cool, remove from liquid.
In a large pot, heat oil to 350°F. Dust beans with potato starch, then deep fry until golden brown. Remove beans from oil, and transfer to mixing bowl. Add purslane, red onion, olives, olive oil, balsamic, salt, and pepper and mix to combine.
Season steak with salt, fresh cracked black pepper, and extra-virgin olive oil and allow to rest at room temperature for at least 1½ hours. Grill the steak over medium heat, 2 minutes on each side (for medium-rare), then rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
To serve, arrange the Gigante Bean Panzanella on a plate with the ribeye bone off to the side. Fan out sliced ribeye over the panzanella and serve.
Pairing: Tenuta San Guido Guidalberto Super Tuscan 2012 is light, fresh, and Cabernet-based. It has good acidity, but it's not too tannic, and won't overpower the steak. Le Serra Nuova dell' Ornellaia 2012 Super Tuscan is very full bodied with very firm tannins and earthy complexity. Montagna Tre Vigneti Estate Napa Valle Cabernet 2010 is very smooth, supple, and velvety. All of these wines have mouth-watering acidity that pairs well with a big, beefy steak like the Certified Piedmontese ribeye!

What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a popular, safe and gentle cosmetic procedure that mechanically exfoliates the skin. This technique uses a closed pressurized system, designed to improve the appearance of fine wrinkles, skin texture and colour by polishing the topmost layer and then vacuuming away the dead skin cells in a safe, controlled manner. As this treatment removes surface dead skin cells, the skin's permeability is increased allowing better absorption of your skin care.
Who would benefit from Microdermabrasion?
Whilst offering an over-all more youthful look to the face and neck, microdermabrasion is particularly helpful as an adjunct to the medical treatment of specific skin complaints, these can include:
The procedure lasts around 60 minutes and a course of 6 monthly treatments is usually recommended for the most effective outcome.
What Are the Risks?
There are limited side effects to microdermabrasion; patients may experience some pinkness immediately after the procedure but this should subside within 24hours. The treatment removes some surface pigmentation, so can thereby reveal underlying thread veins if you suffer from them, but by using the wand and vacuum suction best suited to your skin's needs, even sensitive areas can be safely treated.
Relatively non-invasive and with no long recovery period needed, Microdermabrasion is often combined with other cosmetic facial procedures such as:
- Anti-wrinkle injections
- Laser procedures
- Dermal Fillers
- Cosmeceutical skincare
How Long Will the Results Last?
With appropriate post treatment care, the effects of microdermabrasion cannot wear out or be reversed; in fact the benefits of microdermabrasion continue to grow after the procedure. After treatment the skin is in better condition to absorb skin creams and serums, helping it to remain hydrated and glowing. The procedure also stimulates the epidermis beneath the skins surface to promote new collagen which thickens the dermis and improves resistance to the effects of ageing.
Why should you have your Microdermabrasion procedure at Skin Temple?
Skin Temple combines a beautiful luxurious setting with unparalleled staff training, modern equipment and medical supervision. All microdermabrasion treatments (regarded by many in the industry as the best microderm treatments in Melbourne) are customised to suit your individual skin problems, and are performed with a number of complimentary additional components, making each treatment not only uniquely customised to your skin problems, but also still a pampering experience that you'll remember for weeks afterwards. If you do require additional treatment, such as one of those listed above, you'll have access to all the information you need at your visit, as Skin Temple is a comprehensive non-surgical skin care centre.
Express: 30mins
Deluxe: 60mins
Express: $135
Deluxe: $185
Deluxe Microdermabrasion treatments are also available in packages of 3 or 6. Please check with reception for details or on our promotions page as we sometimes have other discounts available. Please note that discounted packages and promotions are unable to be redeemed on Saturdays or afterhours.

My apologies for the almost-none blog activity for the month of September. As I've mentioned in my previous entry, I'm currently in a transition phase (and until today I still am) at work and the adjustments I'm dealing with are a bit challenging. My other lives are sort of being compromised I admit (which I don't like) but I'm trying my hardest to get the hang of it all so I can finally go back to being the superwoman that I am. My friends are missing me already!! And the kettlebells at the gym. Huhu!
Thankfully two Saturdays ago, I managed to squeeze in a couple of hours to my busy schedule. I was invited to one of the many Zomato Foodie Meet Ups, and I had fun! The meet up destination was Banzai: The Great Teppanyaki Theater in Seaside Boulevard, SM Mall of Asia.
Before I give you a virtual tour of Banzai, let me introduce Zomato first! It is an online source of anything food — a community, wherein foodies give their ratings and reviews which can be accessed by anyone, making it a naturally reliable library of restaurants in the metro! I personally find it very useful because it's no secret that Ian and I love to scout different food spots to try, and it's always been the feedback at Zomato that helps us decide where to go! It's cool because the budget is also indicated on the reviews so it's really a big help. Zomato can be accessed via web and also through applications which are available both on the Play Store and the App Store! So convenient!
The area was big enough to accommodate a community! Lol
We were introduced to Ms. Leah Estrada, Banzai's brand manager. She shared that it was called "The Great Teppanyaki Theater" because it features chefs who puts up fire cooking shows and knife exhibitions. They also have 3D wall arts which make you feel the Japanese authenticity more, perfect for picture takings! I wasn't able to take photos of the walls though, how ironic!
Now onto the food.. Brace yourselves for there's going to be some serious photo dump ahead!
Of course, the most anticipated section is the sushi-sashimi-teppanyaki-teriyaki area! Gosh I can go back and forth and still won't get tired of these!
More food..
And then more food!!!
Here are some of the side dishes, plus desserts!
These photos do not give justice to the real thing!! I haven't captured everything, but I'm sure these made you hungry!
Banzai has raised my standard for Japanese food!! I'd definitely go back to indulge on more sushis and tempuras!

6,000-Year-Old Monument
Within the rather picturesque Vale of Pewsey in the UK – halfway between the famous Stonehenge and the similarly ringed Avebury monument – resides the Cat's Brain long barrow. This curiously named Neolithic structure dates back to around 3,800 BCE, and this summer, the University of Reading's Archaeological Field School got the chance to excavate it.

While reading a tape measure can seem intimidating at first glance, it's actually very easy when following a few simple steps. Having a basic knowledge of how to read a tape measure is essential for most DIY projects. In the case of blind repair, detailed measurements are often required to order the correct parts and string. Measuring right the first time will avoid wasted time, money and headaches.
Starting with the smaller fractions – The example above shows an inch with markings in 1/16 increments. This pattern will be similar on most tape measures. The easiest way to think about these fractions is to start with start with 1 inch, then divide that in half, that equals a half inch – half of that is a quarter, then an eighth, then a sixteenth, and so on.
Moving to the larger increments – The inches and foot increments on any given tape measure will extend for as long as the tape measure is. For example, a 12 foot tape measure will have 144 inches. Foot increments are not usually defined unless the measurement is large, say over 12 feet. For example, a measurement of 46 3/4″ is usually defined as that, and not 3′ – 10 3/4″.
As a general rule, when measuring, find the inches first, then add the increments down to the nearest fraction of an inch.
Practice measuring a few things around the house, large and small – You'll be a pro in no time!

Bio-Elita Hydrating Treatment
The Nutro-Crystal Capsule Technology comprises concentrated crystal-like capsules containing nutrients which immediately release into the skin upon contact. Skin captures nutrition and moisture from the capsules to maximize its moisture levels. The treatment also uses a Bio-Oxygen device, which helps promote the delivery of oxygen and nutrients into the skin. Aging cells are activated to awaken tired complexion, helping skin to absorb nutrients and moisture released from the crystal-like capsules instantly. In combination with the Green Caviar Extract, it strengthens the functionality of the dermal-epidermal junction, thereby improving skin cohesion and increasing exchange between the epidermis and the dermis. After the treatment, the skin easily rejuvenates after absorbing the nutrient particles.
- Enhances absorption capacity and elasticity of skin
- Shrink pores, reduce fine lines
- Boosts skin's moisture level for an anti-ageing effect
- Accelerate facial blood circulation
- Deliver perfect radiant skin
Suitable for:
- Sagging skin
- Lack of skincare
- Lack of sleep
- Dull skin and uneven skin tone

Holy Baptism is full initiation by water and the Holy Spirit into Christ's Body, the Church. Baptism is a rite by which God establishes a new relationship with us. St. Stephen's baptizes people of all ages. Along with the rest of historical Christianity, we believe this also includes infants. What more fitting sign of the absolute grace of God than an infant being baptized into the unmerited love of God? We welcome all who come wanting a deeper knowledge of God. Baptism is celebrated during regular church services on All Saints' Sunday (November), the Baptism of Jesus (January), Easter (March/April), and Pentecost (May). If you are interested in participating in this sacrament for yourself or on behalf of a child, please contact the church office in order to schedule a time for preparation with the priest.
Confirmation is a sacramental rite in which a baptized person makes a public affirmation of the promises made at his or her baptism, usually made on their behalf by parents and godparents.
A Bishop leads the worship service and lays hands on each confirmand, while praying for the Holy Spirit to strengthen and empower that person. Preparation for confirmation is grounded in our Baptismal Covenant and explores the questions: Who is God? Who is Jesus? What is the Church? How are we to live? Confirmation classes are open to anyone interested in confirmation, in reaffirming their baptismal vows, or who are just curious about their faith.
This dedicated group of Lay Eucharistic Visitors spend time with shut-ins and the infirmed to offer support and to administer communion.
Marriage is a solemn public covenant between two people in the presence of God and the faith community. Choosing to enter a covenantal relationship is one of life's most important decisions and joyous occasions. It is also a time for prayer, planning, preparation, and growth. We are happy to discuss with you your interest in celebrating your marriage at St. Stephen's. We want to help make this special occasion, beautiful, meaningful, and God-centered. Please Note: - We require all couples to be or to become pledging and participating members of St. Stephen's, if the wedding is to be officiated by the rector of St. Stephen's. - Premarital counseling is required of all couples seeking the Sacrament of Marriage in the Episcopal Church. For further information on planning and scheduling your wedding, please contact the church office at 540-825-8786.
Home Blessings
A new home is an important milestone in a family's life. The blessing of a household is mentioned in the Bible (2 Samuel 6:12, Psalm 4:8) asking for God's favor and protection. We offer these prayers and blessing to give owners peace and protection. Please contact the church office for more information.
Pet Memorials
Our pets have given us years of joy and are regarded as members of the family. When their time is up we grieve in the same way as we do when a person close to us has died. Therefore, it only makes sense to honor them in a way that shows them the proper respect they deserve. We offer pet memorial services to benefit both adults, and especially children, as they offer family members the opportunity to pay tribute to a cherished family member. We are happy to talk with you about your needs during such a difficult time.

Well, it was a busy week last week, and I didn't get everything done that I wanted to put up here. So that leaves me with plenty of content for this week. Unfortunately, I still have to generate that content.
First are my thoughts on Live-Action cartoon movies. That post is probably about two-thirds done.
Mrs. Kidan and I went to see Transformers over the weekend (three hours of uninterrupted no-kids time, we almost didn't know what to do with ourselves) and thoroughly enjoyed it. My wife was pleasantly surprised, though she thought there was too much fighting at the end-an thought not shared by myself or my fellow geek co-worker. Anyways, my review of the new Transformers movie (and yes Princess, I'll tell you my thoughts on it before I post the review for the world to read, and yes, I'll actually speak them out loud to you) should be up fairly soon. Probably before the stuff about Live-Action cartoon movies.
Then tonight is Ani-Monday where we get the next episodes of Noein and Tokko (and of course Macross PLUS which I'm not watching). Then tomorrow night we have the return of Eureka and I'm fairly ecstatic about that.
The final two essays I want to prepare for this week are my thoughts on just where Riina comes from (that's Star Wars EU material) and something about s-groups in Heinlein's Friday and how they relate to the state of marriage in today's society. I just wish I had created that content in time for the Heinlein Centennial celebrations. Other Heinlein related content that I have planned is a glimpse through Starship Troopers to see just how well he previewed the state of affairs in regards to society, and a thought about the probability of the balkanization of the United States from Friday. When those last two will get generated... well who knows. I can be slow on the content stuff sometimes.
Anyways, as noted, I have plenty of content planned, now all I have to do is find time to write it.

This week in No Karakana...

Nice. Looking foward to the Riina essay. I'm hoping to see more of Tahira/Riina in the upcoming Legacy novels.

Thanks! And the Riina stuff should be up in a few days or so. I too think some more Tahiri in LotF would be awesome. Especially if Anakin pops back up :)

Turn performance management data about your talent into actionable insights
Companies are accustomed to paying competitive wages and good benefits to attract talented managers and professionals. Yet many businesses pay relatively little attention to creating the best circumstances for individuals to perform at their best. It's time to change that. It's time to become a proactive HR professional instead of a reactive one, using information about your people.
Turning workforce data into actionable insight
Do you know which parts of the business are performing well, who was recently promoted, who received a pay rise, and who constantly exceeds expectations? Having the answers to these questions will help you directly impact your company's bottom line and accurately assess the performance of employees.
HR and employee analytics can help you decide where to invest, identify the top performers, determine what employees need to perform, and what they value. Workforce analytics also provide a way of monitoring the results of any measure you take.
Your approach to talent management must allow for social feedback, regular check-ins, and more. It should also link performance to goals, learning, and peer recognition.
By consolidating information about the performance of your employees with other information (like your company's approach to recruitment), you can make vital employee decisions based on the right workforce information. Then, you can ensure the success of your talent management strategy.

The punk and metal sub-cultures (and music) remained mostly separate through the first half of the 1980s. The cross-pollination between metal and hardcore eventually led to the 'crossover thrash' scene in 1984; a style that started at a Berkeley club called Ruthie's. The term "Metalcore" was originally used to refer to these crossover groups. During this 'primordial soup' period, hardcore punk groups Corrosion of Conformity, Dirty Rotten Imbeciles and Suicidal Tendencies played alongside thrash metal groups like Metallica and Slayer. This scene influenced the skinhead wing of New York hardcore in 1984 that included Cro-Mags, Murphy's Law, Agnostic Front and Warzone. 1985 saw the development of the hardcore breakdown, an amalgamation of reggae and metal backgrounds. Agnostic Front's 1986 album 'Cause for Alarm', a collaboration with Peter Steele, was the merging point of hardcore punk and metal. During this time, the reverse was true as thrash metal groups began to borrow from hardcore punk, and in 1987 Metallica paid tribute to Discharge and Misfits by the remake of selected songs.
The vocal technique in metalcore is most often screamed vocals, most commonly used during the 1990s; today, many metalcore bands combine these vocals with the use of 'clean' vocals.
The instrumentation of metalcore includes heavy guitar riffs and double bass drumming. Drummers typically use a lot of double bass, but a large number of techniques are used in their repertoire.
Metalcore emerged from heavy metal and hardcore punk's subculture. Although a few of the groups were adhering to abstention from drugs and alcohol, this is not universal.
Metalcore was not recognized by the RRCA (now Diskery) database until 2014. As NEW bands are discovered that meet this description they will be moved under this title. Acts currently listed as 'Hardcore Metal' will remain so as the two terms mean the same; 'Hardcore Metal' now considered obsolete by Diskery (the genre's name itself, however, is still in popular use).

Good quality is key to the lighting market.
As you will appreciate, my main focus is on product quality; but quality is also important for our industry in terms of lighting design, installation, and commissioning and maintenance.
Poor quality and non-compliant products in the lighting market are a concern and have a number of serious implications:
● Low quality or non-compliant lighting products will result in dissatisfied customers and undermine customer investment in lighting in the future.
● The credibility of new technology such as LEDs and OLEDs will be undermined. Poorly performing products will weaken the realistic performance claims of reputable manufacturers, and the long term confidence of clients in new technology.
● In competitive terms, an uneven playing field is created for responsible manufacturers that invest in ensuring their products satisfy all legal and other requirements and are of good quality.
How is quality in the market monitored and measured, other than by customers who experience poor quality and argue with their suppliers about it?
Every manufacturer has a general duty of care to ensure its products are safe and generally 'fit for purpose' for their intended application(s).
Also, legislation and standards establish requirements by covering both specific technical aspects such as electrical safety and energy effi ciency and more general requirements such as waste management.
Various government agencies are responsible for monitoring and enforcing compliance with regulations. Trading Standards monitors consumer product safety, the National Measurement Office (NMO) monitors energy-efficiency requirements for Energy-related Products (ErP) Regulations, and the Environment Agency monitors compliance with WEEE Regulations.
The Lighting Industry Association (LIA), as the industry trade association, works with these agencies to ensure the industry understands these requirements fully.
The LIA also assists the agencies in their enforcement role, which is in the best interest of the industry.
For example, the ErP Regulations establish minimum energy performance requirements for lighting products. The NMO randomly buys products and tests them to the claims made by the manufacturer. When products do not comply, the NMO has legal powers to demand corrective actions, to set fines or to prosecute.
The LIA, through its test laboratory, contributes to this monitoring of quality in the market. The LIA provides testing services to the NMO and to other organisations involved in different ways in this process, such as Trading Standards, the Energy Saving Trust and others.
The LIA also has a service to members and non-members – the Performance Verified Scheme – that measures product performance to confi rm products comply with safety requirements and meet the claims made for them.
In my opinion quality is important to the whole lighting supply chain, but we can't rely solely on legislation and enforcement to deliver it for us.
We need to promote and support quality more, we need more communication about its importance, and we need to look for new ways to identify poor quality and non-compliant products.
Over the coming months, the LIA will be working on ideas and initiatives, including European co- ordination of activities, in these areas. If you have any thoughts on this that you would like to share with the LIA please contact joint chief executive Peter Hunt at email@example.com.
Good quality is essential for customer safety and satisfaction. Good quality is essential for credibility in investing in new technology and lighting in general. Good quality is essential for fair competition.
Rune Marki, managing director, Osram UK and president, Lighting Industry Association

The Select Committee on Stem Cell Research MEMORANDUM by The Royal Society of Edinburgh
The Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) is pleased to respond to the call for evidence from the House of Lords Select Committee on Stem Cell Research. The RSE is Scotland's premier Learned Society, comprising Fellows elected on the basis of their distinction, from the full range of academic disciplines, and from industry, commerce and the professions. This response has been compiled by the General Secretary with the assistance of a number of Fellows and experts with substantial experience in this area.
The specific questions identified in the call for evidence are addressed below.
Do the additional purposes in the 2001 Regulations raise issues of principle different from the purposes specified in the 1990 Act?
The Society believes that there are no different real or substantive issues to be considered. Nevertheless, there are two more subtle issues which may be of importance. First, it could be argued that the purposes served by the additional grounds of permissible research on human embryos are of more importance than those which have been permitted since 1990. This is not in any way to lessen the value of research into infertility, but the possible therapeutic benefits of stem cell research which may provide therapy for more common, and more life-threatening, conditions may benefit many more people. Second, caution is required, in that these benefits are only potential. At a recent meeting of European experts in this field, the clear impression was given that the realisation of these benefits was still a long way in the future.
There is a range of different views world-wide on the acceptability of research on embryonic stem cells. What considerations underlie these differences? Do changes in the law here have implications for practice overseas and vice versa?
Attitudes in Europe differ greatly. Sweden already permits embryo research for stem cell derivation, and France and the Netherlands appear to be moving in a similar direction. Resistance in Germany, however, is on a par with their resistance to any manipulation of human embryos, and has an historical basis following the Nazi eugenics programme. In other European countries (such as Ireland), resistance appears to arise from religious conviction, which again would not readily permit the manipulation of embryos, and certainly would not endorse their deliberate creation for research purposes. Further consideration of the range of ethical and religious positions in Europe can be found in the European Group on Ethics in Science and New Technologies publication "Adoption of an Opinion on Ethical Aspects of Human Stem Cell Research and Use" (January 2001).
The UK legislation now provides the international community with a model framework in which embryonic stem cell research can proceed under statute and with due oversight. Other countries, such as Japan and France, are preparing to adopt similar measures, persuaded by the compelling scientific arguments for the use of human embryonic stem cells and the need to regulate research use of human embryos. In the USA it is illegal to use federal funds to isolate embryonic stem cells but not to work with cells isolated elsewhere, although many argue that this is illogical and the use of federal funds to isolate embryonic stem cells should be allowed. Changes in the law here could, therefore, set a precedent that could influence law changes elsewhere.
Changes in the law in the UK, however, are arguably unlikely to exert influence on those countries influenced by either the religious or historical ground mentioned above, although it is possible that a movement of scientific researchers towards the UK might result. In addition, if therapies that show sustained success at not unreasonable cost result from this work, it is likely for them to become available throughout the developed world, irrespective of where they are devised.
Have increased globalisation and other international commercial developments, in relation, for example, to e-commerce and patenting, changed the context of the debate in the UK? Would issues relating to research on embryos benefit from more attention at international level?
Increased globalisation has not, of itself, changed the context of the debate on this issue in the UK. However, should stem cell research prove effective, it is inevitable that issues of commercialisation and patenting will arise and it is likely that there will be a potential backlash against this research if profit from human embryos becomes a realistic possibility. Commercialisation of human bodies or their parts is already under active consideration in Scotland as part of the work of the Review group on Retention of Organs at Post Mortem which will be producing a final report later this year. Resistance to commodification of human parts is also evidenced in the terms of the Human Organ Transplants Act 1989, and in the debate over surrogacy. Generally speaking, although not-for-profit interventions are welcomed, the debate tends to shift when finance is involved.
In common with the scientific struggle between private and public research in relation to commercialisation of the Human Genome Project, this is an issue that merits considerable international concern and co-operation.
What are the potential medical benefits of stem cell research? What is the most likely time-scale for realising them? What are the potential risks?
The potential benefits of stem cell research are in providing treatments by in situ tissue repair for a wide range of common degenerative diseases, some of which are currently intractable, such as neurodegenerative diseases, and others like heart failure are treatable only by organ transplantation with all its problems of donor availability and tissue rejection. Enhanced tools for drug discovery may also become possible and stem cell research would also bring an understanding of the developmental determinative processes which will confer medical benefits in due course.
Until recently, however, these arguments were essentially theoretical, derived by analogy with well-characterised mouse embryonic stem cells. It is significant therefore, that although only a handful of research groups have had access to human embryonic stem cells, there has already been important progress. Human embryonic stem cells can now be cultured in large numbers, clonally propagated, genetically manipulated, differentiated in alternative ways under the influence of specific growth factors, and induced to form mature cardiac and neuronal cell types. Thus there is now convincing evidence that human embryonic stem cells will provide a defined and expandable source of a wide range of normal cell types. Success with medical benefits, however, are only likely to come gradually. As an estimate, some limited success may be expected in experimental cases with more accessible conditions such as Parkinson's disease within a few years. 'Effective cures' in such cases and some success with less accessible conditions can be expected only much later, for example, in twenty years. It is expected, therefore, that developments will continue for the remainder of this century at least.
Risks fall into two categories. First, risk to the patient which, as for any treatment, would have to be assessed in preclinical experiments and in clinical trials, such as inability to control stem cell differentiation adequately leading to the formation of inappropriate tissues and possibly tumours. Second, risks for society that treatments may, at least initially, be too expensive for widespread use. However, this is often the case for 'novel' treatments (such as heart and liver transplants) which subsequently become widely available because technical refinements usually follow that bring down the cost.
There are differing views on the extent to which potential treatments could be developed from non-embryonic stem cells, such as adult and umbilical cord stem cells. What are the advantages and disadvantages of working with these alternative sources of stem cells?
There has been a revolution recently in our understanding of the plasticity of adult stem cells. While it used to be thought that their developmental capacity was restricted to cell types in the organs in which they reside, it is now clear that it can be much broader, and this opens up a range of new possibilities for using adult stem cells for regenerative medicine. The use of these cells would avoid the ethical issues raised by destruction of embryos and nuclear transfer.
However, this research is in its infancy and it is not yet clear that everything that might be achieved with embryonic stem cells would be possible with adult stem cells. For instance, adult stem cell numbers are limited and it is not yet clear to what extent their properties could be maintained in culture and, therefore, it is not clear whether or how they could be used clinically. By contrast, there is much greater understanding of embryonic stem cells, based on 20 years of investigation in the mouse. Most crucially, it is known how to propagate human embryonic stem cells in large numbers. It is, therefore, realistic to anticipate clinical applications of human embryonic stem cells in the near term.
For the moment at least, the necessary strategy is to appreciate that for the development of the best treatments, research on embryonic, foetal and adult stem cells are not alternatives but are highly complementary, and should be pursued in parallel.
What are the commercial interests involved in research in this area? Does increased commercial involvement create additional ethical difficulties?
The possibility of effective therapies will certainly be of great importance for commercial exploitation. For example, a single US corporation, Geron, is asserting a monopolistic position on human embryonic stem cells and also on "therapeutic cloning".
The business practices of the biotechnology industry, therefore, need to be carefully circumscribed so that second order ethical problems do not arise. For example, it is debatable whether the issuing of a patent on such a fundamental resource (and highly questionable "invention") as human embryonic stem cells is in the public interest given the potential healthcare implications. In addition, the drive to patent and reap rewards from specific developments has long meant their non-availability (on grounds of cost) in some regions of the world. There would also be potential resource issues even within the UK. Once a therapy becomes available, it may be that a legitimate claim to receive it could be mounted, particularly in light of the terms of the Human Rights Act 1998, and Strasbourg jurisprudence in this area.
Human reproductive cloning (the transfer of an embryo created by cell nuclear replacement into a woman's uterus) is unlawful in the UK, and the Government has announced its intention of reinforcing this ban by specific primary legislation. Is there likely to be any pressure to resist such a ban? What are the principal ethical (and scientific) arguments against human reproductive cloning?
There is likely to be limited opposition to an affirmation of, and extension to, the current ban on human reproductive cloning.
As is true in much of science, it is the intention behind and use of the technology which should be addressed, but all too often the technology itself is focussed on. There is nothing inherently wrong, arguably, in reproductive cloning, although there may be 'bad' reasons for undertaking it. Of course, there are sound practical reasons not to attempt it for the moment. In experimental animal studies the success rate from reproductive cloning has remained at about 1% despite considerable effort to increase it, and there is a high incidence of birth defects. This being the case, there is little prospect of developing a satisfactory technique for human cloning, since the experimental stage would not be acceptable. However, if the technology to provide it safely and efficaciously did exist, it would be important that a rational and reasoned debate took place.
There may be acceptable reasons for human cloning, which might, for example, include the creation of a child following the death of another- especially if the intending parents are now infertile, so long as it is clear that the clone will share only the physical characteristics of the deceased child. The use of cloning for some reasons might legitimately be banned but there may be merit in exploring whether or not cloning is always wrong, before implementing a blanket ban.
Does the extension of embryonic stem cell research, and, in particular, the technique of cell nuclear replacement therapy (therapeutic cloning) - designed to grow tissue for therapeutic purposes - increase the likelihood of human reproductive cloning in the future?
The extension of embryonic stem cell research and therapeutic cloning may have a peripheral impact on the likelihood of reproductive cloning in refining some of the necessary technology. However, this will only be minimal in terms of the complexities of the later stages of development and will not address the reasons for reproductive failure.
Has the regulatory framework established by the 1990 Act operated effectively? Is it likely to remain adequate for the foreseeable future? Have any gaps appeared in the regime as a result of developments since 1990?
The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), created by the 1990 Act, has proved itself to be an effective mechanism for regulation. When the law intervenes in these areas, it is preferable to have 'permissive' rather than 'directive' legislation, permitting the exercise of an element of discretion which renders the legislation flexible and able to reflect changing attitudes, whilst at the same time giving the authorities the power to monitor and police practices, and prevent practices which are regarded as unacceptable. One criticism, however, which would be true of any similar organisation, would be that in exercising discretion, the body assumes to itself the power and responsibility for setting, as well as reflecting, the boundaries of acceptable practice. In the light of the openness and accountability which such decisions may require, it might be argued that more could be done to ensure that any public unease about this is alleviated.
Do additional guidelines need to be developed to assist the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority in issuing licences in accordance with the new Regulations? If so, what should the guidelines contain?
The HFEA is well used to dealing with research proposals which are speculative, as would be the case with much early stem cell research. However, limited publicly debated regulation, in parliament and elsewhere, would be beneficial in respect of embryonic stem cell research, not least because it may help to ensure that any public unease about this technology is alleviated.
In addition, because of the concerns about the use of human embryos in research projects, care should be taken to ensure that the deliberate creation of embryos for research purposes should be kept to a minimum, in order to allay the fears of those who might see this as a 'slippery slope'. In fact, once embryonic stem cells have been isolated from an embryo they appear to multiply without limit in the laboratory, although their properties can become compromised with extended multiplication. Consequently after an initial panel has been established, there should be only limited need for isolation of new stem cells from human embryos. In their guidelines for human embryonic stem cell research it may, therefore, be appropriate for the HFEA to require that all derived human embryonic stem cells should be deposited within a "Stem Cell Bank" from where they could be distributed to legitimate researchers. This would avoid the need for multiple laboratories to each derive their own stem cells and would enable HFEA to monitor the number of human embryonic stem cell lines being produced. The HFEA, in conjunction with the Medical Research Council, will then be in a position to ascertain the need for continued derivation of new lines in the future and to ensure that there is no unnecessary use of human embryos.

Over the past few months, President Donald Trump has been unmasking some of the darkest faces of the deep state, and new reports indicate that this is about to get a whole lot uglier.
Freedom Daily reported that it was just discovered that former CIA director John Brennan teamed up with Arizona Senator John McCain to distribute negative based public relations stories within the mainstream media. These fake news stories were meant to discredit and destroy the work Trump has done during his first year in office to make this country great again.
Some of these negative press stories were published before he even officially began his presidential term, meaning Brennan and McCain have been plotting against Trump since before he even took office.
In early December of 2016, just weeks after Trump won the election, a CIA source said that Brennan's CIA was the major source in a national Washington Post story linking the Russian government to hacking the presidential election to help Trump. The Washington Post story claimed that the CIA confirmed the wild rumors of Russian hacking that were concocted and spread by Democratic lawmakers for months preceding the election and the weeks since the GOP win.
However, the story cited no CIA sources, and in fact, no credible U.S. intelligence agency sources whatsoever. Instead, the story relied on what unnamed lawmakers had supposedly been told by unidentified, supposed CIA-linked sources in "secret" briefings: That the CIA had developed proof the Russian state waged an orchestrated campaign to destabilize the U.S. election to benefit GOP-candidate Trump.
"It's an outright lie," a CIA analyst said at the time."There's nothing definitive like that."
Now, more sources in law enforcement are pointing directly at Brennan and McCain for leaking misinformation to the media and waging their own clandestine campaign to smear the White House.
"No one has ever called these two on it," a well-placed White House source said. "But now we know what they did. It did not work but it certainly could have."
It is believed that McCain delivered Brennan's misinformation directly to the Washington Post and New York Times. Now that Trump knows what McCain did, it's only a matter of time before he enacts his revenge on the elderly senator!
