From October 8, the Karel Zeman Museum will be exhibiting original costumes from Karel Zeman's films. Ludmila Zemanova, the daughter of the director, is flying specially from Canada to open the newly extended exhibition. Visitors to the Museum can enjoy a variety of support programs to mark its first birthday: film, art and music workshops inspired by Zeman, costume hire or samples of other film crafts. The celebrations will culminate in a multimedia concert by Clarinet Factory on the Čertovka (The Devil's Channel).
Over the second weekend in October, inspired by the presence of the Zeman film costumes, visitors to the museum will be able to rent film costumes and take part in make-up and hair stylist demonstrations from Barrandov Studios. There will also be creative workshops in which people will be able to try to prepare film materials in the style of the Karel Zeman films. There will also be a children's competition and the chance to make their own short animated film and a photography workshop. Visitors to the museum can dress up in period costumes and using the decorations of the Museum can make pictures with an authentic Zemanesque atmosphere.
Celebrations for its first year in operation at the museum will culminate with two concerts by Clarinet Factory performed as part of a unique outdoor audiovisual experience. The concerts will take place on Prague's Devil's Channel. The magic genius loci of this beautiful place will be underlined by thousands of floating candles and a fire show. The Čertovka will be brought to life in a variety of themes from the films of Karel Zeman. Both concerts are free.
As part of the Strings for Children project, the Minor Theatre will host musicians, designers and other artists inspired by Karel Zeman. This will include a series of music, art and film workshops, theater performances and film screenings for inquisitive children and their playful parents. There will also be selected animation scenes from the movie Journey to the Beginning of Time.
To mark its first anniversary, the Karel Zeman Museum, in cooperation with Barrandov Studios, has prepared a special exhibition of original costumes from Zeman's films. In the Museum visitors will now find a selection of costumes from the films The Fabulous World of of Jules Verne, The Fabulous Baron Munchausen and On The Comet. Most of the costumes on exhibition are taken from the film The Stolen Airship, publication of a digitized version of which is being prepared by the Museum for the end of this year.
The Karel Zeman Museum is proud to join Prague's other prestigious museums and open its doors on Saturday 14th September in the evening as part of the now traditional Museum Night.
In addition to visiting the attractive museum outside of traditional hours, visitors can also enjoy the festive illumination of the Museum grounds, night boating on the ElektroNemo, puzzles and quizzes, demonstration workshops in animation and special effects, and screenings of Zeman films. Weather permitting, the film program will culminate in an open air presentation of The Fabulous World of Jules Verne, starting 21:00 in the Saxon court.
What a wonderful childhood it muse have been! -Chantal Renee, Torento, Canada 7/11/2012-
The most beautiful exhibiton I´ve ever seen in all my life, which is quite long, you know... I like it!

My american children grew up with these extraordinary films. Thank you for a wonderful museum and tribute to Zeman.
A great museum for a great artist who reminds us what the "magic" of cinema truly means. Thank you.
Fantastic exhibition! I´ve been to many film museums and this is absolutely on of the best.
Thank you for this mindblowing exhibition!
I liked the Journing to the moon and journe to the beggining of time. I think that Karel Zeman was a really great man. Also a genius.
Beautiful museum! Great work! Big emotions! Merci monsieur.
Exhibtion was very interesting. I enjoy Prague´s museums more than different in Europe (I think). Best wishes for these museums. -Alice from Warsaw-

This old porcelain sign is advertising Phillips - The True Temper Steel Bicycle. The steel sign has a rich, dark blue, porcelain enameled background with the name "Phillips" in red with a white outline. The bottom line is yellow with is slightly muted with some of the blue showing through. It has six manufactured holes for hanging.
The Phillips company began business in England in the late 1800's and during the early 1900's it was second only to the Raleigh company in the manufacturing of bicycles in Britain. I believe this sign is from the 1930's.
It measures about 12" by 27" and is in very nice, original condition with minimal wear. The colors are vibrant and is has good gloss. There is minimal scratch or scuff wear. There is minor porcelain chipping which I have shown in the close-ups. The worst chips are along the top left edge. The other chipped areas are on the top right corner and the lower left corner. The back has typical pock marks and minor chipping. The sign has a slight bow to it as I have tried to show in the photo so it doesn't lie perfectly flat.
The pictures are not shown at actual size. Please refer to the description for actual measurements.

Kia pro_cee'd
The improved Kia pro_cee'd coupe offers strong build quality, good looks and the option of a pokey yet efficient 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine. Never fancied a Kia? That might well change. Jonathan Crouch reports.
Ten Second Review
Kia look to have a strong package with this much improved three-door pro_cee'd coupe. It's well built, looks great, offers strong efficiency and there's a very good after sales package. It's up against some serious rivals though.
Forget what you thought you knew about Kia. For years now, we've seen them as plucky triers, patted them on the head with patronising comments along the lines of 'a lot of metal for your money' or 'this is a company that's getting there fast'. Well, it's here now, in the big leagues and this improved pro_cee'd three door model is priced accordingly, right up there with the mainstream contenders like Vauxhall and Citroen. This brings with it some harsher judging criteria. The sort of gauche interior design and off-pace emissions that we used to forgive Kia for just won't wash now. In fact, expectations have been raised so high that the pro_cee'd is now a vehicle that needs to be excellent in order to achieve any sort of recognition. The first pro_ceed model in arrived in 2008 and the second in 2011, so it's clear that this is a car that's had a lot of budget thrown at it. Here, we're looking at the facelifted second generation version, a hugely important car for Kia, not just in terms of sales, it's also charged with raising the image of the brand. First impression suggest that it's right on the money.
Driving Experience
The pro_cee'd's underpinnings won't come as any great surprise. They're basically the same as the cee'd hatchback that has established itself well. Under the bonnet, as with that car, the key news here is the introduction of Kia's latest 1.0-litre T-GDI turbo petrol direct injection engine, offered in 98bhp and 118bhp outputs. We can't really see much point in opting for the pokier version as its pulling power - 171Nm of torque - is no better than that of the base unit. Either way, if you want a petrol engine in your cee'd, this powerplant offers a far more satisfying choice than the old 98bhp 1.4-litre petrol unit that's still offered on lower-order variants of this second generation model. At the top of the range, the 201bhp pro_cee'd GT model continues with a 1.6-litre petrol turbo unit that powers it to 62mph in just 7.4s. This variant now gets bigger brakes and a sound symposer to emphasis the engine note. Most pro_cee'd buyers though, want a diesel. There's an old-tech 89bhp 1.4-litre CRDi variant still available, but most buyers will want the more efficient, higher-tech 1.6-litre CRDi unit, offered with 134bhp. This gives buyers the option of a 7-speed dual-clutch DCT automatic transmission, one of those clever gearboxes able to seamlessly select the next gear before you've even left the last one. For this diesel variant, improvements in refinement have been prioritised, so additional sound-absorbing materials have been adopted for the carpet and ventilation system, while twice as much anti-vibration foam has been added to the dashboard panel to cut engine vibrations intruding on the calm of the cabin. Otherwise, things are much as before. So the driving dynamics still won't satisfy those for who see handling response as everything, despite the addition of a torque vectoring system, which reduces understeer by partially applying the brake to the inner wheel under cornering. You still get a supple multi-link rear suspension system, something that's still not the norm in this segment. And there's neat FlexSteer steering that allows you to alter feedback at the helm. Plus these models are as rapid as most owners will need them to be, the 134bhp diesel 1.6 making sixty two mph from rest in 9.5s on the way to 117mph.
Design and Build
The pro_cee'd remains a handsome, wedge-shaped three-door hatch, designed by Europeans for Europeans. Built in Slovenia under the auspices of the Frankfurt-based Kia Motors Europe design team, it features a longer and lower profile than the five-door car, resulting in an edgy, coupe-like shape. A sharply raised beltline and a sharp crease leading into the rear arches disguise the fact that it rides on the same chassis as the cee'd and features the same windscreen angle. Other than that, only the bonnet and front wings are interchangeable parts. At the front, this revised version retains Kia's hallmark 'tiger-nose' grille, along with wraparound headlamps and integrated fog lamps. Changes include a more angular and wider bumper, with chrome trim around the fog lamps, and a smarter oval-shaped grille mesh echoing many of the shapes and design forms on the front of the car. A similar change has been made to the rear of the pro_cee'd, with reshaped bumpers, sporty-looking reflectors and LED lamps all featuring. Inside, the fascia layout remains neat, though there are still rather a lot of buttons. The asymmetric, driver-focused dashboard looks classier now though, receiving flashes of chrome around the instrument binnacle, the air vents and around the upper edge of the instrument panel. The central fascia panel is now finished in a high quality, anti-scratch gloss black for a more premium look. Other chrome highlights have also been added to the cabin, in particular around the base of the gear-stick, on door handles, and to the temperature control dials on the dashboard, depending on trim level. There's also an optional colour pack to make the cabin feel more individual. Out back, as before, there's a 380-litre boot. Push forward the split-folding rear bench and you can free up a useful 1,225-litres of total fresh air.
Market and Model
Prices are much as before, so you'e looking at figures that start from around £15,000 and rise to around £23,000. There's not too much to instantly differentiate the S and SE models, although the eagle-eyed will spot that the S rides on 16-inch alloys whereas the SE is supplied with 17-inch rims. Standard convenience features on the S include automatic lights with 'welcome' and 'follow-me-home' functionality, 'one touch' electric windows, electrically-operated, heated and folding door mirrors with integrated LED side repeaters, cruise control with a speed limiter and steering wheel-mounted controls. Reversing sensors and a trip computer are also standard. Go for the SE and apart from the wheels, you'll also receive exterior door handle illumination, stainless steel door sill plates and pedals, power lumbar seat support for both driver and passenger, automatic dual-zone climate control and automatic rain-sensing wipers with a built-in de-icer function. The SE also gets a 7-inch touch screen European-wide satellite navigation system with full UK postcode functionality. This screen also doubles up to display the images from the colour reversing camera when the vehicle is in reverse. Plus there's an automatically-dimming rear view mirror and a keyless smart entry system with start/stop ignition button.
Cost of Ownership
You can see why Kia needed to develop this improved pro_cee'd model's 1.0 T-GDI petrol engine. After all, the returns of the older 1.4 and 1.6-litre petrol units it effectively replaces were hardly very noteworthy, even when fitted with the brand's Idle Stop/Go package. In contrast, the more modern 1.0-litre turbo unit can deliver 57.6mpg on the combined cycle, whichever tune you order it in. The CO2 return is 113g/km for the 98bhp version and 115g/km for the 118bhp model. Choose the 134bhp 1.6 CRDi diesel and you should manage 74.3mpg and 99g/km. As for the twin-clutch DCT automatic gearbox optionally offered to 1.6-litre diesel cee'd buyers, well Volkswagen has already proved that if this technology is done right, the result can actually be an improvement of fuel and CO2 figures over the equivalent manual models. That's not the case here though, where they take a dip of over 10%. That means 67.3mpg on the combined cycle and 109g/km.
This improved Kia pro_cee'd seems to be the real deal. It's reasonably priced, extremely well equipped, it looks great and it's solidly built with an unbeatable after sales package. What more do you want? More power? More speed? Kia will even serve that up with a turbocharged 204PS pro_cee'd GT model as well, should you so desire. It's tough to see a weak link with this model. No, it won't be as light on its feet as a Renault Megane Coupe through a set of bends but the flipside of this is that the car feels as if it'll still be going strong when the Megane is being parted out in a breaker's yard. The car this pro_cee'd most closely squares up to is Vauxhall's three-door Astra. There's a similar impression of solidity here and no small commonality in their good looks. Pricing isn't too far off beam either. Which would we choose? If pressed, we might well throw our lot in with Kia. Both cars have a lot to commend them. As an ownership proposition the pro_cee'd probably edges it. Job done.
This vehicle has previously been registered to a business or a vehicle rental company, or been used by a business, so it may have been driven by more than one driver.

"We are thrilled to announce the release of this award-winning book that is not only a fascinating read, but raises an important health issue." - Robert Fletcher, CEO of Strategic Book Publishing and Rights Agency
(PRWEB) May 29, 2015
An organizational consultant and part-time college professor, Dr. Ben Parks is afraid he is losing his memory and may be suffering from early dementia. He is embarrassed at unexpected times in both his professional life and in his uncertain relationship with his wife Addie.
Ben is blessed with a hob-knobbing career working with corporate and government movers and shakers as they wrestle with complex strategies. But as multiple family members around him are being diagnosed with Alzheimer's, Ben wonders what's in store for him.
Reviewer Karen Lyon of Capitol Hill Rag writes, "'Forgetful,' a new novel by local author Nick Mann, follows Ben Parks through several years of his life as he confronts the unthinkable, while still maintaining a busy professional schedule and dealing with increasing tensions at home. As he relives incidents in his past that have led him to where he is today, he struggles with the ambiguity of his situation and the fears that threaten to overwhelm him. Will he find the courage to deal with whatever the future holds? Can he draw on the wisdom that guides his thought-provoking seminars to forge a new path for himself? Whatever the outcome (and you won't learn it here!), one thing is certain: spending time with the complex and very human Dr. Parks is an absolute pleasure from start to finish. First-time novelist Nick Mann has worked as an organization development practitioner and serves on the adjunct faculty of the Federal Executive Institute in Charlottesville, Virginia."
This very special book won a Beverly Hills Book Award for African American Fiction.

Every person should at least have enough knowledge about plumbers and what they do so that they will know when to hire them and how to hire them. A typical plumber actually has an extensive responsibilities and functions. They are indeed very important to every house hold. In fact if you are wise, you should have a plumber's number saved in your phonebook for emergency use. Yes, emergency because most of the problems where a plumber is only the answer need immediate attention. Some of their responsibilities are bathtub or sink installations, repairing anything related to water systems and so on. Anybody can actually become a plumber if you are interested since it does not require a diploma to be one. The skills can be learned via apprenticeships.
If you are interested in knowing how they manage their responsibilities for you to have an insight about them, then you can check these out:
Most plumbers will join the brainstorming as early as the planning session. Like for example a building needs a lot of plumbing tasks, they will be the one to see to it that everything will work well within the building. There are even some who are licensed that will be assigned to really do the structure of the overall plumbing system in the entire building.
Part of the roles of a typical plumber is the physical implementation since some of their tasks require heavy labors like transporting some heavy equipment that will be needed for the completion of their tasks. They are the one to repair if problems will occur like damaged pipes, and they should see to it that it will be repaired without sacrificing anything in the whole system. For them to accomplish this, they must be equipped with ample knowledge about what they are about to do.
Lastly, they know when to listen and they see to it that they will understand every instruction given to them. They can work with anyone who is hiring them like homeowners, managers and so on.They abide by the rules like for example if they are working on a government establishment, though they already know about something, they still need to abide by the regulations of the government. For some who are really licensed in this field, they do some supervision and apprenticeships towards those who are not. They can act as the supervisors for a team where they will be the one giving the instructions and the unlicensed will do the execution. Why the Plumbers in Coomera are the best?
So, after reading what a typical plumber is expected to fulfill, you now know that being a plumber is not easy. And they are a bunch of people who are very important to everyone. So, the next time you think you need to contact one, be sure to show some respect as being a plumber means hard work and vast roles and responsibilities. Though you might be paying him, it cannot hurt to do the instructing with kindness besides a happy worker always generate positive performance.

Collecting the Nets (Fishermen at sea)

National Gallery of Greece
Konstantinos Volanakis (1837-1907) was a Greek painter, considered one of the best of the 19th century. He was known as the 'bard of the Greek sea'. He was a keen and affectionate observer of nature, whose knowledge of the sea encouraged the fullest expression of his talents.
Born to a wealthy family in Crete, he moved with his family at an early age to the island of Syros where he established himself in the bustling port of the island. There he finished his preliminary studies and in 1856 he moved to Trieste on the coast of Italy where he worked as an accountant at a sugar firm and began painting. He first became interested in marine subjects and his sketches of the harbour and small ships on the sugar firm's ledgers drew the enthusiastic attention of his employer. As a result of that, he was sent, with the financial backing of his family, to the Academy of Arts in Munich.
After his studies he worked in Munich and traveled to Venice and Trieste, cities whose picturesque port and harbour-oriented topography would prove inspirational. It was during his stay in Vienna that he had the opportunity to travel throughout the Mediterranean in the Austrian navy's training ship, which would prove the inspiration for his coastal and full ocean scenes, and the characters that populate his beloved marine panoramas.

text: While looking for an idea for their MBA thesis it dawned on our two founding partners they should create a business from the one thing that could turn strangers into comrades, unite people from across the globe and all walks of life. Football and the passion one displays for their team. Both men were familiar with scarf culture having been supporters their entire lives but saw an opportunity to bring that culture back to the States. What was once just an idea batted around in the halls of a university soon became what is now known as one of the original American custom scarf providers, Soccer Supporters. Over the years we've learned quite a lot and grown along with the industry but we aim to always stay true to our grass roots: doing what we love, serving our customers to the best of our ability and supporting the love for the beautiful game.

Korea has one of the most capricious and least efficient labor forces in the world and China is catching up with Korea very fast. Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines will soon follow. The fault is on the employees, but on the employers.
Korean companies have departed for greener fields in China to discover that the fields are not as green as originally imagined. Many of these same companies, as we all know, have packed their bags and moved to the less developed Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Laos and the Philippines.
In all of these nations, one thing holds true, lawyers are needed, not only to mitigate the ubiquitous legal risks, but to structure a labor relations system that mitigates labor relation risks.
Because of the lack of this advice or more likely the lack of company management willing to hear this advice, Korean businesses have become some of the least favored companies to work for, for the more skilled employees in Asia. Even in Korea, foreign companies are increasingly becoming the favored choice of many of the most skilled employees.
The situation can change with the active involvement of lawyers with the knowledge and guts to push clients to heed this very simple advice.
All of my clients doing business overseas are, always, strongly advised to follow these Ten Labor Law Commandments otherwise they will likely need to move to another green pasture or face the costs of the legal system or the scorn of employees.
For example, one of my clients, recently, departed China to move his factory to Vietnam. The company left China because of an inability to find skilled workers. This Korean Company was blackballed by the local skilled employees, since a employee representative noted that they wished to work for a "kinder and gentler" employer.
I strongly told the Company that they will run into the same issues if the employer is not willing to consider employee relations as their number one risk. Luckily for the Company, the management is, now, heeding my advice. Much of this advice was developed over my decade in Asia working along with Tom Coyner a former human resources professional with a leading international software company.
Ten Commandments of Good Employee Relations
- Carefully Draft Employment Rules and an Employee Handbook. The form rules and handbooks being utilized by the majority of the smaller law firms are not adequate. These employment rules and the employee handbook should be drafted with the advice of a knowledgeable international attorney and a local Human Resources professional. The employment rules should be strictly followed and enforced. Always apply rules equally to all employees;
- Hold Monthly Meetings between Management and Employee Representatives. Be honest about issues in the company, the future vision for the Company's Management and the hopes and wishes for the employees;
- Publish a Quarterly Newsletter. In the newsletter summarize the Management –Employee Representative Meetings, Job Training Programs, Available Positions, Promotions, Welfare Benefits, Requests to Employees, Personal Stories (Births and Marriages), Charitable Endeavors etc.. If possible, have a monthly newsletter;
- Separate Management Compensation from Union/Employee Collective Pay Increases. This helps to alleviate collusion between employees and management. Union/Employee pay increases should primarily be tied to inflation, while management should, primarily, be tied to job and company performance;
- Hire a Professional HR Manager. The HR manager should have a position equal to the Finance Manager. In addition, the HR Manager should be trained in HR and not merely moved from a different department of a company. The HR Manager is an essential role in the company and as such should receive the same pay, support and education as the Finance Manager;
- Build Good Relations with Labor Boards/Labor Relations Organizations. These organizations are a useful source of information, can assist with hiring and also assist with terminating an employee;
- Reward Workers with Token Gestures of Appreciation. A reward for Best Worker of the Month, Least Absence Days, Most Improved etc. goes a long way in building loyalty to the company;
- Make Concessions. Some of the concessions made can be utilized to show that the management respects the employees. Most strikes and labor disputes occur because of a breakdown in trust, not the simple lack of enough compensation. The breakdown in trust, usually, occurs because of the perceived lack of respect the employer has for the employee. The breakdown in trust leads to a breakdown in communication, which ultimately leads to labor disputes;
- Embrace Good Ethical Management. Differentiate your workplace from other workplaces by leading the company with a respect for the law, best business practices and strong business ethics. The companies that embrace ethical managements, overwhelming, attract better talent and achieve far better results;
- Educate Employees to know how their Specific Task Leads to success for the Company as a Whole. This is especially important in manufacturing companies. Often the employees' role is so mundane that they lose focus on the essential nature of their function. An employee that understands the importance of his or her role is an employee that will be more productive.

The Global Goals World Cup is just around the corner, and we have now found the fifth member of the SDG 5 Gender Equality Dream Team: Tshidi Likate from South Africa.
Tshidi is a Save the Children Girl Champion and the founder of Bet She Can, a movement that empower girls in rural QwaQwa, South Africa by mentoring them and providing them with critical information on gender equality, women's health and post-school planning. The organisation hereby creates a network of girls who motivate each other to reach their full potential.
As a girl, Tshidi did not have a seat at the table. Traditional leaders perpetuated gender stereotypes, but her light shined so bright that the king in her village invited her for a meeting. She is now an inspiration to girls who do not think they can achieve big things. Tshidi is a shining example that one's place of birth should not determine your path in life.
And Tshidi is already a good friend of the Mission of Denmark and the Global Goals World Cup. She was a panellist in the side event at the UN HQ in March 2017, where the SDG 5 Dream Team was launched and the two first players were revealed.
Tshidi is nominated by Save the Children international CEO, Helle Thorning-Schmidt. Save the Children is a proud partner of the Global Goals World Cup, and have co-hosted the women's football tournaments in Nairobi, Copenhagen and now New York City.
Tshidi continues to fight for gender equality and every girl's right to an education – an on Tuesday, 19 September she will fight for her team to win the Global Goals World Cup Trophy.

About one in 10 babies will develop a strawberry mark during the first couple of months after birth. These birthmarks get their name because sometimes they look similar to a strawberry. They can appear anywhere on the skin, but six out of 10 are found on the face or neck. They start off as a small, red patch which increases in size over about three to nine months and becomes a bright, red lump. It then stops growing and slowly shrinks. But most will not need any treatment and gradually disappear over time. Click here to read about Birthmarks.

Marketing Head,
Uniwin Technologies,
14/67 Marigold Lane
Date: 25- April 2014
Subject: Thank you for your precious time for the fruitful meeting on 24th of April
Hi Belinda,
Greetings for the day!
First of all I would like to tell you that it was great knowing you in person and I would like to extend a thank you note to you as your presence made this meeting fruitful.
After, our meeting on 24th of April, I was certainly impressed and felt that our conversation can certainly benefit our businesses and qualify for going to the next level. Your proposal of outsourcing Gracia Naturals Inc. marketing department to Uniwin Technologies initially sounded like a bubble but as you explained your proposal and the economics behind it, I was certainly taken over. I would like to thank you for the intellectual conversation we had in our last meeting and also for the presentation and statistical report you have provided in its support.
I am now planning to discuss your analysis with our board of directors and if the majority of them are positive about it then I might call you over for a second round of convincing. I hope that would not be much of a trouble. I wish to take this proposal ahead but before that there would be several rounds of meeting that would take place in the management to take this major step.
Hope to have you as our business partner in the times ahead.
Thanks and Regards,
Cindy Lyall

The Cross River State Governor, Prof. Benedict Ayade has given kudos to the Niger Delta Affairs, NDA, for coming to its rescue in undertaking the emergency repairs of the Calabar-Itu-Ikot-Ekpene-Aba Federal Highway.
Prof Ayade was speaking during a courtesy visit by the NDA Acting Managing Director, Mrs. Ibim Semenetari and other directors of the Commission at the Government House, Calabar, yesterday.
He thanked the NDA for boosting the revenue of the state and revitalizing its economy through the singular act of restoring the major gateway to the state which had virtually collapsed. "The Calabar-Itu Road repairs has helped us to raise our revenue profile and re-invigorate our economy. In fact, the Commission has directly put money into our pockets and helped our budget.
Before now the road to Calabar was virtually cut off, until the NDA intervened. Prior to that intervention you could not access Ikom from Calabar without going through Ebonyi State. Our state was more or less divided into two because of the very bad road. The Obudu cattle ranch was totally cut off from the rest of the state.
He noted: "If not for the timely intervention of the NDA, the annual Calabar Carnival would have been a disaster. This is because access to the state capital from both Itu and Ikom roads had been cut off. It was shear nightmare for us before now."
"We must celebrate the NDA and Mrs. Semenitari for coming to our rescue. I am even more surprised that she is ready to go through the pains of making the journey to Ikom. I wish her well as she goes through the risk of going to Ikom."
The Governor declared that Mrs. Semenitari would move to greater heights after her assignment at the NDA. In recognition of her achievements, we have decided that the flame night for the 2016 Calabar Carnival will be lit by Ibim Semenitari. "I can spend a whole day celebrating the
NDA and Ibim. They deserve all our praises."
Prof. Ayade spared no adjective in hailing the NDA Chief Executive Officer, describing her as a woman with the heart of gold. He said: "Looking at her gives you the feeling that we have a future in this country. She has demonstrated an uncommon selflessness and kindness to the weak as represented by Cross River State in the midst of other Niger Delta states."
"Cross River State is like a weeping child, since all our oil wells have been taken away. Despite our disadvantaged position, NDA has continued to provide development projects to our communities. You can understand our joy when we learnt of the visit by the Commission's directors. This is more so, given that our state is the weakest link in the NDA chain, with very little coming from oil contributions and because we now have very little to bring to the table. Even in the face of this, the NDA did not abandoned us."
Mrs. Semenitari told the governor that the NDA directors were in the state to commission completed projects as well as inspect on-going ones. She said that it was important to visit the governor, especially now that a lot of work was going on in the state, stating that the Commission placed a lot of premium on project inspection.
She added: "We want to hold our contractors accountable on all projects being executed by us. In doing this, we need the assistance of the state governments in the region. We expect the governors to help us monitor our projects."
Mrs. Semenitari commended the governor for collaborating with the NDA in the emergency repairs at the Calabar-Itu Road and other projects.

CBS Radio has called Stephen Kellogg "the best live act you've never seen." Another writer at No Depression magazine gives him the oddly flattering title of "the best songwriter you're not listening to." Interestingly though while Kellogg may not be a household name at present, he has persisted in building a substantial career, which has landed him on stage with some of the biggest touring acts in the country (Train, Sugarland, OAR, Josh Ritter to name a few), in the billboard charts, and with his songs as the backdrop of numerous films and TV shows (One Tree Hill, Men of a Certain Age, Mercy).
Perhaps most importantly to Kellogg, he's ingratiated himself into the lives of his listeners. That sort of mentality has garnered him descriptions like this one from Macaroni Kid, "an unassuming manner, self-deprecating humor, a heart for those around him…100% genuine and utterly moving." His Americana-tinged, sometimes folk, often rock, occasionally pop stylings can make Kellogg hard to define, and his most recent four part album "South, West, North, East" embraces the notion of genre splitting to the fullest. Roy's Hall proudly welcomes Stephen Kellogg to our stage

GOING TO EXTREMES: PROPOSITIONS ON THE SOCIAL RESPONSE TO SEVERE CLIMATE CHANGE: William R. Travis, Climate Change 98(2010): 1–19.
Even optimists worry, and this optimist has among his worries extreme climate change. I have no doubts that the climate is already changing, primarily due to human action, and that it will be extremely difficult to keep global warming below the consensus goal of 2°C degrees warming. In so believing, I am clearly not alone, especially following the failure of Copenhagen to produce a significant agreement. Many concerned scientists and policy advocates are considering, albeit reluctantly, emergency prevention measures (geoengineering) that might change such fundamental global processes as photosynthesis or the radiative balance to slow the rate of climate change.
But compared to the willingness to consider geoengineering measures for climate change mitigation, there is still little consideration of adaptation to severe climate change. In part, this is due to the long-term neglect of climate change adaptation in general, as some policy advocates feared that attention to adaptation would undermine prevention efforts, and others emphasized its spontaneous or autonomous quality, thus not requiring active study or policy. And even scientists, who have long studied adaptation in the context of hazard studies or agriculture, understood that all adaptive measures have physical, economic, or institutional limits that diminish their effectiveness in the face of the challenge of severe climate change.
The Travis article is as important and worthy of discussion and followup as were the early articles on geoengineering. He begins by defining the meaning of severe or extreme climate change as change greater than the current scientific consensus (IPCC) of the likely (implying a 66–90 percent probability) range of global surface warming. If CO2 levels double from pre-industrial levels during this century (a pace that would still require major efforts of emission reduction), the likely range of surface global warming would be between 2°–4.5°C; with a tripling of CO2 levels (the pace of emissions growth just prior to the global recession), a likely range would be 2.5–6.4°C. Thus this consensus view implies that that there is a 5–17 percent chance of warming greater than 4.5°C with doubling, and 6.4 °C with tripling by 2100.1 Then Travis draws upon the extensive hazards literature to explore adaptation responses to low-probability but high-consequence hazard events. He notes, however, the limits of this literature since it addresses adaptations to natural hazards (floods, droughts, storm surges, sea level rise, hurricanes, etc.) that are limited in their spatial extent, are viewed as "natural recurrent events," and are seen as the extremes of a stable climate, not indicators of a changing climate.
With this caution in mind, he explores six pathways of adaptive response familiar to readers of the hazard literature. While many of these are more intensive versions of current adaptations, e.g., higher sea walls, increased irrigation, expanded building codes and design standards, improved forecasts, catastrophecatastrophic insurance, and the like, several may be different from current practice and may even be surprising. So, for example, tipping point warning systems may be created, extensive weather modification will be practiced, multiple climate hazard catastrophic insurance may be provided, and efforts may be made to store or move endangered ecosystems. And such currently unlikely adaptations as fundamental revisions of water law or massive migrations away from the coasts might even be undertaken.
Travis also warns of maladaptations, the most common being the way in which short-term adaptation can lead to long-term increases in vulnerability. With various names such as the "catastrophe hypothesis," the "safe development paradox," and the "levee effect," climate changes, as they increase over time, are expected to encourage efforts to build or raise sea walls, levees, and dikes, or increase water supplies. But when sea level, storm surge, flood, or drought exceed the protective works, catastrophic losses often ensue. An outstanding example was metropolitan New Orleans and Hurricane Katrina, where new levees following Hurricane Betsy of 1965 encouraged settlement of some 150,000 households behind the new levees, only to be badly flooded when the levees failed when Katrina hit.2
Finally, Travis offers a new and potentially useful climate change severity index akin to the Modified Mercalli Scale of earthquake intensity, which is based on human perception of motions and the damage to structures rather than the physical Richter magnitude scale of amplitudes of seismic waves. The six point scale (see Figure 1) begins with level zero (the so-called normal 30-year average climate). Currently, we are in the early stages of level II, with more frequent and more intense events such as the 1988 U.S. drought or the 2003 European heat wave. This leads to a social response of applying or requiring intensified versions of current adaptations. Beyond level II, novel adaptations and behaviors emerge, including widespread weather modification, desalinization, water transfer, maximum sea walls, species relocation, and coastal retreat. At levels IV and V, adaptations are likely to fail, and there would probably be widespread use of geoengineering, and if the geoengineering is unsuccessful, societal and ecological collapse. But we are in level II, and there is now clear interest in adaptation as evidenced by a series of recent and important U.S. reports.3 As Travis reminds us, extreme climate change needs to be included in these reports.

Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
ATLANTA - As civil rights leaders and activists gather at sites across the country to celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the slain civil rights leader's daughter is encouraging Americans to fight for his vision of love and justice "no matter who is in the White House."
Bernice King addressed more than 2,000 people gathered at her father's annual commemorative service at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, four days before President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration. She spoke hours before her brother, Martin Luther King III, is scheduled to meet with the president-elect at Trump Tower in New York.
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders headlined Monday's commemorative service and encouraged a "community of love that Dr. King fought and died for."

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a 2016 presidential candidate who touted King's message of economic justice, was also scheduled to address the commemoration service.
Susan Minsk, 48, came to Ebenezer with her 17-year-old daughter Sophie from Sandy Springs, a Republican-leaning suburb just outside of Atlanta and Lewis's district. As the white mother and daughter waited outside, unsure if they'd be able to get in, Sophie said she worries that Trump's rhetoric will make social tensions worse.
"He just burns so many bridges," she said. "Why make everyone feel more segregated than they do already?"
Ahead of Monday's event, Cynné got to sit down with Dr. Bernice King, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s youngest daughter and CEO of the King Center, to discuss the service.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Looking for a night of pure entertainment? Come experience the emotion with Chaparral's first play Rumors by Neil Simon. Simon writes his plays from his own experiences, but unlike his other pieces Rumors is relentless in its needs for plot twists, and to keep the comedy going. Rumors is a farce; a comic dramatic work using buffoonery and horseplay that typically includes crude, characterization, and ludicrously improbable situations. "A farce is a hard play to write. But it makes for a great play to perform and watch," stated by junior Chloe Cherro. The theatrical Wolverines of Chaparral will be performing this on November 3,4, and 5 in the Auditorium next to the main entrance. It costs only $7 for students and $10 for adults to witness all the hard work and passion of the cast, as they invite the audience into their world. Rumors is "a comedy about a fancy dinner party, where a bunch of crazy stuff happens," said Cherro. "Each and every student participating in Rumors gets to do what they love in an environment fit for them, able to share their hard work and talent," said Cherro. Don't miss out on all the talent at Chaparral, buy your ticket and secure your spot at this year's first play.

Guwahati: The Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) on Sunday made the bizarre demand for a re-poll using traditional ballots, saying that the Congress had rigged the electronic voting machines (EVMs) to win the Assam elections for the third straight time.
"Definitely there should be a re-election by way of ballots as we strongly believe the Congress party tampered and manipulated the electronic voting machines," two-time former chief minister and AGP founder president Prafulla Kumar Mahanta told journalists.
"We have formally apprised the Election Commission seeking a re-election in Assam," he said.
The Congress party, led by Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, pulled off an emphatic hat-trick by winning 78 of the 126 assembly seats on Friday. Its ally, the Bodoland People`s Party, (BPF) won 12 seats.
The AGP, which ruled Assam twice in 1985 and 1989, was decimated and managed to win just 10 seats this time, 14 less then what it had bagged in the 2006 assembly polls.
The other main opposition, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), won five seats, five less then what it got last time.
Among the prominent losers were AGP president Chandra Mohan Patowary and BJP state president Ranjit Dutta - both losing to the Congress. Even Mahanta lost in one of the two seats he contested from.
"How could the Congress candidates win with such huge margins," questioned Mahanta.
But Mahanta failed to give a convincing answer when asked how he won from one seat and nine other AGP candidates also emerged victorious.
"No, they (Congress) manipulated the EVMs in the other seats," the former chief minister said.
But the BJP rejected any such theories and conceded defeat.
"We respect the mandate of the people and maybe we failed to reach out to the voters," BJP state president Ranjit Dutta told journalists.
The Congress simply ridiculed Mahanta`s comments.
"By blaming EVMs and accusing us of manipulating, Mahanta is turning to be a big clown, nothing less than a comic character," a senior Congress leader said.
"Such statements are nothing but frustration and reflect how immature Mahanta and the other AGP leaders are," he added.
