The biggest differences between road and tri-specific shoes are obvious ones being the retention systems used by both of them and of course the stability provided by the road shoe design. The road shoe retention system is built for stronger foot retention and in turn better stability on the foot thanks to more straps and usually a stiffer heel cup and stiffer material construction. The road shoe will typically a little warmer also overall and perhaps will retain water a little longer over the open construction of a triathlon shoe. The triathlon shoe will also have a softer heel cup arguably allows for better entry into the shoe but this is not always the case. The construction of most triathlon shoes is also significantly open to improving ventilation.
The better the shoe can control the foot in the cycling shoe, the more effective the force to the pedal can potentially be. For starters, stability and rigidity in material choices allows for more effective force application. What could this mean? It means the foot has better potential to perform work. Is it always so? No. You need to also start by building a foundation under the foot which means always starting with a properly built insole. Second, the cleat setup and correct rotation is also important in helping to maintain pedaling stability and prevent overuse injury.
I think most of the reason why you see many pros using road shoes in competitions is for, if nothing else, more performance from their equipment and increase foot retention in the shoe even if they sacrifice a little with transition time on and off the bike.
You do tend to see people also wearing mountain bike shoes for triathlon. This usually happens with beginners new to the sport and or athletes not confident putting their shoes on while already on the bike. Usually, people wearing mtb shoes will actually put them on in the transition zone and then run in them to the start of the bike instead of running barefoot with the shoes already on. The downside of wearing an mtb shoe is probably the biggest factor for not wearing them in competition is the weight penalty. For the most part, you can easily give up a 100 grams per shoe very quickly from a road shoe to a mountain bike shoe which over a long distance event can cost a significant amount of energy usually needed for a run.
Actually, both road and tri shoes usually are produced out the same sole mold for sake of production cost. A slightly elevated toe in the sole of the shoe helps in activating the windlass mechanism in the foot to aid in the propulsion phase of the pedal stroke. There is more to it than simply this but in general, yes, it can help with performance.
Are carbon soles always a better choice than synthetic soles? Why (not)? Carbon soles or better worded, stiff soles can be very good for performance. Why carbon is used in the construction of the shoe is simply strength to weight can be very good. The stiffness of the shoe sole itself especially in the length provides better performance mechanically as the energy is better transferred to the pedal. More complex sole construction and more premium carbon usage also helps with torsional deflection in the sole and again improves performance and minimizes losses in torque at the pedal. Perhaps in triathlon where the overall torque profile is smoother and more even at lower peak loads, this is impacting performance less but it still has the potential to affect the performance.
An argument not to use carbon and to look to shoes utilizing nylon composites can be for extra durability to the sole if you had the tendency to walk more in the shoes but this applies to not only triathletes but cyclists in general.
This could be explained perhaps a number of different ways but perhaps a few of the most common ways is too much movement in the shoes if the shoe is too big and foot is too mobile or too compressive with a shoe too small compressing the toes. The most common of problems is Morton's neuroma which is a nerve compression condition usually radiating from between the 3rd and 4th metatarsals. A proper functioning insole of the right material density and properly supporting the heel, arch, and forefoot usually helps with immediate effect. Material choice providing good dampening properties while providing rigid support work best and can be highly adaptable in the shoe. The interface between the shoe sole and the foot is critical. Offloading the pressure area can also be hugely beneficial and getting the cleat mounting point away from the metatarsals can aid in reducing recurrence and inflammation in these problems.
This follows from the previous question but very simply, a shoe that fits well with a stiff sole will provide the athlete with the best possible out come. A mechanism to hold the shoe level on the bike by usage of a small strap system adds convenience to competition usage and with wider fitting velcro closures will provide the foot with the best retention while allowing best ease of use.
Sure, traditionally bike shops paid less attention to having a good selection of sizing inventory but this has greatly improved over the last few years in general. A good shop will be able to provide you with 2-4 choices in models/widths/sizes to give you the best option. If you use an insole, bring it with you or ask the shop if they have options to test different types of off the shelf insoles. An insole is very critical to good fit so make sure the shop can help you out. Small pressure points in the shoe can be adjusted but in general, the foot should have a good overall even pressure and enough adjustment range in the straps to properly secure the foot.

New Program Enables Partners to Capitalize on the Growth of Software-Defined Storage in the Enterprise to Increase Revenue, Differentiate Storage Offerings and Simplify Solution Portfolios
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – March 23, 2016 – Hedvig, the company modernizing storage and accelerating enterprise adoption of private and hybrid clouds, today announced the CloudScale Partner Program to advance reseller cloud and software-defined storage (SDS) practices. The program provides resellers with a range of benefits including training, reduced implementation costs, discounts and access to Hedvig technology alliances. Partners will be able to differentiate storage offerings and help customers achieve greater speed with less risk than legacy storage with a single, streamlined platform that supports any application in any server, VM, or container environment.
Software-defined storage is projected to experience massive growth over the next few years. ESG estimates that 94 percent of mid to large organizations are now implementing or planning to implement an SDS solution, and 451 Research shows that 67 percent of enterprises will increase spending on software-defined infrastructure in 2016. With the launch of the CloudScale Partner Program, Hedvig joins forces with reseller partners across the United States and Europe, including ACS, Damecon, DatacenterNext, Daystrom, Dovilo, Fabrics4Clouds, Layer 8, NexStor, OTC, Proact, ProcoliX, PTS Data Center Solutions, Rhodix, Right! Systems, Solid State Solutions, SHI, Sysorex and Trace3.
"Dovilo is delivering modern, universal IT infrastructures to enable customers to maintain control and run their application workloads wherever they need them to be—be it a hypervisor, private or public cloud. We call this Hybrid IT," said Bertram Rutte, CEO and Founder at Dovilo. "Hedvig provides the best storage we've found for Hybrid IT. Because Hedvig is all software, the solution will get better over time with new features and capabilities. We're very excited to be one of the first to work with Hedvig. The market is ready, we are ready and Hedvig is ready."
In addition to expanding its reseller partner base, Hedvig plans to strengthen additional technology and distribution alliances. Hedvig has certifications and reference designs for leading server vendors including Cisco, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Supermicro and Quanta, making it even easier for VARs to bring SDS solutions to customers.
"Hedvig is the most complete, most flexible software-defined storage solution we've seen on the market. We believe it's a great option to be able to offer when it comes to building end-to-end solutions for our Big Data and Analytics, Cloud Migration, and Converged Infrastructure practices," said Bret Osborn, Chief Sales Officer at Sysorex. "The market is ready for a new approach to storage and datacenter infrastructure. We're excited to be at the forefront of this trend as a charter member in Hedvig's partner program."
Hedvig provides the elasticity, simplicity and flexibility needed for next-generation infrastructure. The Hedvig Distributed Storage Platform is designed to make SDS technology accessible to enterprise IT, supporting common storage protocols like iSCSI and NFS along with new object storage APIs like S3 and Swift. It is the only SDS solution that supports widely deployed applications like SQL databases and virtualized server and desktop environments, along with new modern applications built on OpenStack, Docker, and Hadoop.
"The Hedvig partner program is designed to help resellers increase revenue by identifying and creating new opportunities and closing projects faster," said Phil Williams, VP of Business Development & Channels at Hedvig. "The Hedvig Distributed Storage Platform provides our partners with a new, modern datacenter solution, helping customers move faster and compete better. This places the company in an optimal position to lead the growth of software-defined storage in the enterprise."

When Adrienne Larson earned her associate degree from the University of Cincinnati Blue Ash College in 1978 she was proud of the accomplishment, but wasn't confident enough in her abilities to believe she could continue her education. Thirty-five years later she has finally earned her bachelor's degree.
"Adrienne is the perfect example of lifelong learning, which is a core component of our mission at UC Blue Ash," said Dr. Cady Short-Thompson, dean of UC Blue Ash College. "She shows that it's never too late to go back to school and earn your college degree."
Before she returned to college, Adrienne enjoyed personal and professional success over the past 30-plus years. She became a social worker, got married, and raised four sons.
As her career evolved and she thrived in the dietary and culinary industries, Adrienne was frustrated by the feeling that she was being held back from advancing into a management position because she didn't have a bachelor's degree. "There I was in my early 50's with a big decision to make," said Adrienne. "I could settle for being overworked and underpaid, or I could go back to school and get the bachelor's degree I always wanted."
With the support of her family, Adrienne made the decision to return to school and immediately focused on UC because of her positive experience the first time around. She was interested in a bachelor's degree that would build on her leadership experience and add the business management skills she needed for the next step in her career.
That was when she learned about the new Applied Administration bachelor's program at UC Blue Ash. It allowed her to transfer all of the credits she earned from her associate degree toward a bachelor's degree. The program prepares students for management opportunities with a focus on communication, collaboration, leadership, and business ethics.
"The fact that this program was offered at UC Blue Ash was a dream," said Adrienne, who lives nearby in Sharonville. "The classes are perfect for what I needed to build on my experience and enhance my leadership skills, the schedule was flexible so I could continue to work, and earning a bachelor's degree from UC gives me the added credibility I always wanted."
Going back to school after such a long time away can cause some anxiety. Adrienne used to hate writing papers when they were done on a typewriter, but she found it wasn't so bad when using a computer. She has learned how to take tests online, do research on the Internet, and use UC's Blackboard system to register for classes. These were all new experiences and with each task completed, she felt a sense of achievement.
After overcoming her fears of returning to college and even taking classes on the same campus with her youngest son, Adrienne Larson received her bachelor's degree. It was 35 years in the making.
Along with advancing her degree, Adrienne also earned something else that she believes is just as valuable, self-confidence. "I am truly excited about my future," said Adrienne. "My return to the classroom has been the most challenging and empowering activity I have ever undertaken. I have new goals now because I didn't settle for less than I was capable of achieving."

USAGE: Use the Present Perfect Tense when we would like to say that there's something happened in the past time and it's still going on in the present time and we don't know when it will stop.
KEY : Present Perfect Continuous Tense uses the auxilliary "Have" or "Has" and the third-verb (or past participle). Look at this illustration below!
For examples:
Sandy : How long have you been staying in this city, Tom?
Tom : Well, I have been staying here since 1995.
Place "not" behind the auxilliary (or haven't / hasn't) without changing the other word structures, Like:
(+) Mila has been completing her assignment.
(-) Mila hasn't been completing her assignment.
Place the auxilliary in the beginning of the sentence when you want to make an interrogative sentence by using this tense, like:
(+) Budi has been writing the story for 3 hours.
(?) Has He been writing the story for 3 hours?
Answer: /Yes, he has/ or /no, he hasn't/ or /no, he hasn't yet/ or /not yet!/
or, you can use the question word phrase, like /how long/.
For example:
(?Q) How long has he been writing the story?
It is possible for us to answer the question in this tense by using Present Continuous Tense.
For example:
Dina : What do you do, Ben?
Ben : I'm a personnel manager.
Dina : How long have you been working here?
Ben : I'm working here about three months
or, you can say a short answer, Like:
Ben : It's about three months.

Experience the sparkle of the season at Georgetown GLOW, the region's only curated exhibition of outdoor public light art installations. Set against the historic backdrop of DC's oldest neighborhood, it's a whole new way to shine.
The 2017 Georgetown GLOW invites visitors to re-imagine the season of light through outdoor public art. This 4th edition of GLOW runs from Friday, December 8 through Sunday, January 7, with works lit from 5 – 10 p.m. nightly. Georgetown GLOW is presented by the Georgetown Business Improvement District.
The installations for the 2017 edition of Georgetown GLOW exude a vivid brightness both in aesthetics and content. From chromatic rings to interactive landscapes, the works are truly beautiful whilst being contemplative. As with previous iterations of GLOW, we ask the viewer to interact, connect, and play with the artwork in thoughtful ways. This year, we also ask viewers to think about the meaning behind the works and how they are able to temporarily transform our surroundings. We do hope that GLOW brings a renewed light to all during the holiday season.
Thank you to the DC Commission on the Arts & Humanities for awarding the Georgetown BID with a Public Art Building Communities Grant for Georgetown GLOW 2017.

Part Member families=gold mines
great sunrise in TeoloWell good news this week: we had a baptism! An 11-year-old boy named Javier whose parents have recently reactivated got baptized this week, and it was pretty cool. Apparently, he took a while to get a testimony, but the week I got here, he had just got it, so we just taught all the lessons and he got baptized yesterday. That just made the day/week even better. Being fast Sunday, I also bore my testimony and heard several good ones. We got to the meetings and nobody was playing the piano, so I decided to just get up and do it. Sr. Call once told a story and the moral was "all you have to do is help without being asked". So I did. Anyway, it was just a good week even though we didn't have anyone else in church. Also, during weekly planning, I was checking the area book for recent converts and found about 30 or more kids from the membership records that aren't members. Sweet. That means we'll be working a lot with the recent converts that are less active to reactivate them and complete their families.
Valle Dorado is probably my richest area in general. In Jurica, there were nicer parts, but there was also the less-nice parts (where we lived and beyond). Here, everything's just nice. The members are great, and they need a lot of help figuring out how to do missionary work. It seems like the elders before haven't done much as far as working with them, so now that we are, they're just starting to make it happen. That's ok, though. I hope I can leave this area with a bunch of members that know how to be missionaries and want to be missionaries. That's my goal here. The only downside to this area is that it's basically a bunch of hills. I'm not talking like Windsor Park hills; these are huge inclines that would prepare a person to hike Everest or something. Anyway, I'll just be in better shape when I come home, then.
Mom, good work on your test. I learned all about sound waves in my acoustics class, and I do think it's really interesting. I had forgotten that Lys and Manuel were going to Peru, but it sounds like it'll be a pretty good trip. Lys, I know what you mean about relatives or family never leaving. It's the same way here, too. Tunas are from Mexico, and they grow on the Nopal plant (cactus species). They're pretty good, but I don't know if they exist in the states. I'll be happy to run the business so mom, dad, and Tara can rest, but only if I can't go to Peru with you guys. Brig, you're completely trained to help Rusty out now. Do what you can, and know that the Lord will help you out. Have you ever considered inviting the missionaries to go see him with you? I know what you mean, Mom, about controlling your thoughts. That's really one of the keys to having the Spirit with you, and even though it's hard, it's so worth it. I do know Michael Rife as well as Hillary Bodine, so that's fun that they'll be getting married.
I'm short on time so I've got to wrap it up. I know that God is our Father and that He loves us. Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer, and as we apply His Atonement, our life improves without fail. I know that obedience and love are the keys to finding happiness as we strive to live the Gospel. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that we are guided today by a living prophet.

The New York State Society of CPAs' Foundation for Accounting Education plans to join with Pace University in New York later this month to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Career Opportunities in the Accounting Profession program.
The COAP program was launched at Pace in 1987 to introduce minority high school students to the many career paths available to them through the field of accounting, a profession in which minorities have been historically underrepresented. COAP accomplishes this by hosting hundreds of students each year for five days during the summer at 10 college campuses across the state.
"We've done a very good job of attracting young minority students into the profession, helping them realize that accountancy can be a part of their dream," said Joanne S. Barry, the NYSSCPA executive director who helped launch the Pace COAP program in 1987.
The formation of the program was supported by the National Association of Black Accountants and CPA firms and businesses throughout New York. In its first year of inception, only 25 college-bound students attended Pace's COAP program, but since then, the program has grown to 10 campuses across New York state, with more than 2,700 alumni to date.
Pace will celebrate COAP's 25th year with high school juniors attending the program at its Pleasantville campus from June 26 to June 30.
Pace University was founded as an accounting institute, so "it's kind of a natural fit [that] we should be involved in a program like this," said Lynne V. Byrne, associate dean of Pace's Lubin School of Business and a member of the task force that launched the program.
COAP programs will be held at nine other colleges and universities across the state this year including Adelphi University (June 25-29), University of Buffalo (June 26-30), Long Island University (June 26-July 1), SUNY New Paltz (June 24-27), University at Albany (June 27-30), St. Johns University (June 26-30), SUNY Oswego (June 26-29) and Westchester Community College (June 27-30).
The program got its start during the NYSSCPA presidency of CPA Bert N. Mitchell, founder and chairman of Mitchell & Titus, the largest minority-controlled CPA firm in the United States. "When we started that program, the participants … had maybe never even seen a black CPA," Mitchell said. "Being a CPA was not an option" in their minds.
Through its COAP Program, the FAE seeks to dispel this notion, by offering a learning experience that includes a tailored curriculum and extensive opportunities to interact with successful minority role models, as well as gain exposure to the corporate environment.
"This program is even more valuable than when it was introduced 25 years ago," said CPA C. Daniel Stubbs, Jr., director of the Master of Accountancy in Financial Accounting program at Rutger's Business School and chair of the Pace COAP program. "The increased access to information spurred by the Internet emphasizes the importance of our core courses, including the evolving role of accounting, financial statement analysis and ethics."
All of the educational sessions are conducted by CPAs and professionals in business and academia, and the students live on the campuses of each hosting university for the duration of the program.
The Pace COAP program will this year include classes with NYSSCPA leaders, including CPA J. Michael Kirkland, NYSSCPA vice president and director in the Deutsche Bank AG Accounting Policy and Advisory Group.
"We want to see more black and other minority CPAs climbing the ladder in public accounting firms," Barry said. "In the right environment, they succeed and the firms succeed."
A celebratory banquet on June 30 will include special highlights of the 25th anniversary of the COAP program at Pace including attendance by past graduates and top CPA leaders.

Labour councillors have withdrawn their members from the Leader's Panel – a committee that hears complaints against councillors - after the Conservatives voted to retain their political majority on the panel and refused to introduce an independent Chair and a majority of independent members.
Leader of the Barnet Labour Group, Cllr Alison Moore, proposed reforming the current Leader's Panel citing a loss of confidence in it from both the public and elected councillors after controversial decisions by the committee led to speculation in the press that the system was politically partisan.
Cllr Moore wrote to all councillors before last night's Full Council vote on the matter urging them to support her proposal to reform the Leader's Panel to an independently chaired, non-politically balanced committee comprising one representative from each political party and a majority of independent members.
After the Conservatives refused, Cllr Moore announced Labour would be withdrawing their members from the Leader's Panel.
Speaking after the meeting Cllr Moore said: "This is the third time this year I have raised the issue – it was time to act. The so-called Group Leaders Panel and the standards process in Barnet has been discredited. It is not fit for purpose, and has lost the confidence of the public and councillors. The Labour Group has withdrawn from the process on a point of principle until the committee structure is reformed and its credibility and integrity restored."
A copy of Cllr Moore's proposed amendment can be found here: http://barnet.moderngov.co.uk/documents/s20044/Amendment%20in%20the%20name%20of%20Councillor%20Alison%20Moore.pdf
A copy of Cllr Moore's email to all councillors can be found here:
Dear Councillors,
I am taking the unusual step of writing to all councillors prior to the debate of the Constitution, Ethics and Probity Committee Report this evening to explain why I will be moving an amendment to the report. I will be proposing reforming the so-called Leaders Panel as an independently chaired, non-politically balanced Standards Panel comprising a representative from each political party.
I am doing this for two reasons. The first is that I believe the Leaders Panel in its current form (politically balanced and without independent members) has lost the confidence of the public and members alike and we need to act to restore the integrity of the process. The second is that, contrary to advice given at the time the Standards Committee was abandoned, it is perfectly permissible under the Localism Act to maintain an independent Chair and independent members and the committee certainly does not need to adhere to political balance.
I believe that we have an opportunity to act right now and restore a credible panel and process for dealing with complaints against councillors in Barnet.
I am appealing to the common sense and sense of integrity of each of you to do the right thing and support my amendment so that we can move on from the current entirely unsupportable position.
Cllr Alison Moore
Barnet Labour Group Leader and Leader of the Opposition

How to Have a Happy Marriage
Marriage does not only mean the meeting of two souls, but also the two families and thus there is a lot that you need to take care about. In most of the marriages that meet a soon break up after matchup, it was seen that the parties had not got their views matching with each other and hence to have a happy marriage is all about having your views matching with each other and it takes a lot of compromise, dedication, devotion and maturity to have a happy marriage. In case you got recently married and you need to make your marriage a happy marriage, you may choose to go for the tips that we are mentioning here for this purpose.
1. Try Getting Familiar with the Family Members:-
As I always say that marriage is not about the meeting of two souls, but two families as well and thus if you need to have a happy marriage you will need to keep these relations happy as well. Simply get familiar with all the relations and try dealing them with equal love and care. This is sure to have a positive impact on your partner as well.
2. Learn each others Interests:-
Try learning each others interests so as to have a favorable knowledge about each other. Try making compromises wherever needed and learn each others idea of fun as well as the way of living and the priorities as well as limits, The more you get to know each other, the more will the marriage gets happier day by day.
3. Some Space Is Also Necessary:-
In marriage, some space is also needed to have it lifelong. Simply be with your partner whenever he or she needs it, but give some space so that the partner does not feel suffocated. If you do not give the desired space to your partner, it is likely that he or she will feel like a trapped bird that will prove to spoil your relations as well.
4. Get the Exact Knowledge about What Each Member Demands:-
Try learning what demands your partner can make from you and be stuck with everything that can make your partner feel happy or let you spend some time together to know each other in a better way. Have some talks shared with each other and know each others point of living.
5. Stay Affectionate with Your Partner:-
You are advised to stay affectionate with your partner. It should feel like you are really dependent on him or her. There should be no fight that is left unsolved and rather your every fight should end with a kiss. Not just when you fight but you can hug your partner anytime. The love making should begin with an affectionate hug and end with a passionate kiss.
6. Respect Each Other and Do Not Let Anybody Come Between:-
The problem that is reported to exist with most of the relations is that there is an interference of third person in between the couple and this should be strictly avoided to have a happy marriage. Secondly, you should try to trust your partner.

Kuala Lumpur, 14 June 2010
Businesswoman linked to Liqua charged with securities fraud
The Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) today charged Alice Poh Gaik Lye, a businesswoman and former business coordinator of Liqua Health Corporation Berhad, for committing a scheme to defraud the company for RM9.75 million.
The charges against the businesswoman came hot in the heels of last week's charging of Liqua's former Managing Director Goh Bak Ming, for abetting in the case. Both cases underlined SC's unrelenting efforts to bring those suspected of corporate wrongdoings to book.
Alice Poh, who was alleged to have committed the offence between 23 February 2007 and 31 July 2007, was charged under Section 87A(a) of the Securities Industry Act 1983 (SIA).
If convicted, she is liable to a fine of not less than RM1 million and imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years. She was granted bail of RM800,000 with 2 sureties and was further required to surrender all her travel documents including her passport to the Court. The Court will mention this case on 9 July 2010.
The scheme to defraud, which Alice Poh had allegedly committed, was to cause Liqua's subsidiary, Liqua Health Marketing (M) Sdn Bhd (LHMM) to execute a Distribution Agreement with Wynsum Healthy Living Sdn Bhd in February 2007, which had resulted in the payment of RM12 million from LHMM to Wynsum. Out of that RM12 million, RM9.75 million was utilised to finance the purchase of over 45 million Liqua shares through the accounts of Tacforce International (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd and Chin Yi Ning, Alice Poh's daughter.
Last week, the SC charged Goh Bak Ming for abetting Alice Poh to commit a scheme to defraud Liqua. Goh was charged under Section 87A(a) read together with Section 122C(c) of the Securities Industry Act 1983 (SIA), and is liable to a fine of not less than RM1 million and imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years upon conviction. Goh was granted bail of RM500,000 with 2 sureties and was further required to surrender all his travel documents including his passport to the Court. The case will be mentioned on 9 July 2010.

PRME REPORT / SHARING INFORMATION ON PROGRESS Principles for Responsible Management in Education; December 2016 - View Report
Period Covered: May 2015 to Apr 2017
This Sharing Information on Progress PRME Report by Kent Business School, University of Kent, UK provides in details specific actions aligned to the six PRME principles that are being implemented by the school. It also outlines some specific future plans that the school hopes to work towards. The introductory remarks by the Director of the School demonstrate the school's continues commitment to PRME.
Achievements Curriculum Integration in the Field of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability
The mission of Kent Business School (KBS) is to be a research-intensive business school that produces rigorous and applicable knowledge, develops employable graduates and informs the practice of management in public and private, local and global communities for a sustainable future. Moreover, valuing diversity and inclusivity is integral to the values of the University of Kent.
Our mission and values drive our strong commitment to responsible management education and have been the guidelines on our continuous journey towards the integration of global social responsibility into our research, academic activities, curriculum and teaching. Our aim is to mainstream global social responsibility throughout our curriculum, programme design and teaching and consequently to shape the thinking of our students and future managers in a meaningful way.
The start of our journey goes back to the year 2007, when we set up a Green Working Group to assess the state of sustainability at KBS and to explore opportunities to better integrate sustainability into the core activities of teaching, research and day-to-day operations. The findings of this assessment have assisted us in developing a systematic approach towards the implementation of sustainability for business and society into not only research, but also curriculum and teaching at KBS.
Since 2007, we have taken a number of additional steps promoting the integration of corporate responsibility and sustainability and we are now more than ever determined to not only integrate sustainability in research, academic activities, curriculum and teaching, but also the overall value of global social responsibility. We have mainstreamed the value of global social responsibility into many aspects of the curriculum of existing modules and teaching, as well as into the development of new modules and future curriculum. Some considerable achievements have been made in recent years, which we would like to share with you in the following:
• Within the Kent MBA issues related to corporate responsibility, ethics and sustainability forms a key part of teaching, research and scholarship reinforcing the mission statement of the school, which has sustainability as a central theme;
• KBS identified and resourced a core group of staff to work together to lead and oversee the curriculum development and change initiatives associated with introducing sustainability into the curricula. These sustainable champions have been allocated resources for project developments and 'ring fenced' to promote this agenda;
• Staff have been encouraged to adopt an enquiry rather than outcome-based approach regarding emerging programme design;
• KBS introduced sustainable practices when reviewing modules and programmes. The issues of sustainability, innovation and responsible management are reviewed and must be clearly demonstrated at both the programme and module level, with effect from November 2014;
• We have designed and delivered specific modules on research ethics, diversity management, corporate social responsibility and on systems thinking (taking a more holistic approach); business ethics and the supply chain, etc;
• We have designed, developed and implemented key modules on enterprise and entrepreneurship with includes sustainability and social enterprise as core aspects;
• Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and sustainability have been included on the MBA curriculum for future business leaders;
• We have designed, developed and implemented a truly international component of the student experience via our European campuses, study abroad, field trips and industrial internships and placements;
• We have developed mechanisms for our students to engage in and with civic responsibility and being an active citizen of the planet, for example with the 50 hours of voluntary work built into our curricula on several programmes of study;
• We have encouraged and continue to encourage our students to proactively embrace sustainability outside their curricular activities; for instance, we submitted a team of four students to the 2015 Sustainability MBA Challenge: The challenge, sponsored by Nespresso, aims to engage MBA students at leading management schools in solving real world sustainability problems and provides them with an opportunity to have an impact by solving a real case study and potentially see their proposals put into action. The students benefit from the experience as the challenge represents a prime example of how the gap between management education and business practice can be bridged. It also demonstrates our commitment towards developing graduates with a passion for responsible management.
Lastly, KBS cares for its social, economic and ecological environment through responsible and sustainable operational practices, which is reflected in the 'greening' of our own service delivery systems within the School such as recycling, using computer programmes such as Moodle, SharePoint, energy reduction, paper reduction/wastage via centralised and monitored printing and photocopying, etc.
The above description of our achievements to date is just the beginning of our effort to mainstream the value of global social responsibility into all our activities. We are committed to extend this effort in the future, which is also reflected in recent appointments of key members of staff, who will actively drive the global social responsibility agenda forward. For example, KBS has appointed a permanent full-time Lecturer in Sustainability and a Senior Lecturer in Strategy and Corporate Social Responsibility, with a specialisation in diversity, equality and inclusion at the workplace. These members of staff have been appointed as the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion representative for KBS and as the chair of the Research Ethics Committee. Their roles includes acting as a focal point in championing and coordinating sustainability activities in the business school, in the development of new sustainability modules and to cement sustainability in the school's core curriculum.
Achievements Research Development in the Field of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability
The creation of research for a sustainable future is an integral part of our mission. KBS aims to develop knowledge in the field of CSR and Sustainability and to share this knowledge through its academic research not only overcoming disciplinary boundaries, but also boundaries between academic research and corporate practice. KBS is home to five applied research centres, which conduct not only quality research, but also in the field of CSR and sustainability. In sharing knowledge with businesses and industry, the research centres have positive social, environmental and economic impact on knowledge development with companies. For example one of the research centres, 'The Centre for Value Chain Research', works nationally and internationally with high profile organisations such as Tesco, Unilever, Oxfam and the Institute for Economic Development, as well as hundreds of farmers and small food producers. The centre's research helps small food producers make effective use of consumer insight data and promotes the development of sustainable supply chains for small farms in developing countries.
The key to transcending gaps between academic research and corporate practice is to engage in knowledge transfer and collaborative research activities with companies and practitioners and to develop, share and disseminate knowledge on sustainable management practices and approaches. The examples below demonstrate some of our current and past collaborative research activities with companies in the field of CSR and sustainability:
• Sustainable Tourism: With research partners including The World Bank, Commonwealth Secretariat, Foreign Office, national governments, industry associations (such as Malaysian Budget Hotel Association) and NGOs the research team at the Centre for Tourism in Islands and Coastal Areas identifies niche tourism as a more sustainable basis for economic growth. It generates data that inform tourism policy for the world's 40 small island developing states (SIDS) and poor coastal communities. The research is often conducted in direct partnership with the NGOs and governments needing evidence-based approaches to sustainable development for vulnerable economies.
• Promoting Sustainable SME Performance in Kent: The on-going project has engaged with over 300 small to medium sized enterprises in the Kent region of the UK and 12 of the national and local government bodies or industry associations that support them. As part of the research undertaken by The Centre for Employment, Competitiveness and Growth businesses across the region are studied and characteristics that define better sustainable performing businesses are identified. The emphasis of the project lies on translating the latest research on sustainable business growth and performance into practical tools and techniques that SMEs can use to gain clarity for sustainable performance.
• Sustainable Social Partnerships: The research addresses cross-sector collaboration between business, non-profit and public sector organisations. Two special issues were edited in the leading journal of CSR research by a member of KBS, several books and papers were published in addition to organising and co-ordinating an International Symposia Series on 'Cross Sector Social Interactions' with the leading academics in this field. Furthermore two members of KBS are involved in the international annual publication in the field of cross sector collaboration research the 'Annual Review of Social Partnerships' (ARSP) as the Editor-in Chief and as the Associate Editor in the ARSP Sustainability Section. The ARSP is written for and by cross sector social partnership academics and practitioners focusing on non-profit, business, and public sectors who view collaboration as key to solving social problems such as climate change, economic inequality, poverty, biodiversity and HIV/AIDS. The ARSP is circulated to over 30,000 recipients around the world aiming to share the knowledge produced by the international community and the best practices by organisations while bridging the gap between theory and practice within this field.
• IPCC Mitigation of Climate Change Research: A KBS member of staff was part of the group of international scientists that conducted research and authored the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) on Chapter 10-Industry. As part of the research process for the report, reviews from industry, national governments and governmental agencies as well as businesses had to be taken into account. The report has generated a knowledge base and sets the agenda as one of the important scientific reports that underpin discussions on global sustainability and climate change mitigation and adaptation.
Future plans for 'Academic Research and Knowledge Development with companies':
Future plans for 'Academic Research and Knowledge Development with companies' are an integral part of our continuous journey towards the integration of CSR and sustainability into our school wide activities. Please find below some of our future plans:
• Better Integration of Multi-Disciplinary Research, between the KBS research centres, internal and external collaborators. We are currently reviewing the work of our research centres; the aim is to create a better environment to enhance CSR and sustainability research and its impact.
• CSR & Sustainability Conference organised and hosted by KBS. This is to provide a formal platform to present and discuss critical issues on CSR and Sustainability. As a way of disseminating knowledge from the conference, a Special Issue will also be planned with an international journal.
• International collaboration and community of practice 'Promoting all talents!' against the ethnic minority glass-ceiling: The main aim of this initiative, which was initiated by AFIP (Paris, France) is to promote a diverse talent pool in the private and public sector and to create a community of best practice for private and public organisations. This international collaboration between various stakeholders such as NGO's, universities and companies in the UK, France and Africa, will provide companies such as L'Oreal, IBM and SODEXO with a platform where all actors can share their experience and best practice. Events, such as working groups and conferences will be held in the scope of this initiative.
• Better Engagement with Companies, through the support of KBS External Services and the Research Office, there is an emphasis on forging continuous collaborations and better engagement with organisations in the Kent region, nationally and internationally for both student an and staff.

For gate drop five of the 2018 Supercross season, Jason Anderson regained his winning ways as he battled Ken Roczen to take the win in a wild, no-holds barred contest in the Bay. Besides winning, Jason increased his overall points lead and the red plate will travel with him to San Diego next weekend.
Jason had a scary moment early in the day as he went down in the first practice. "At the beginning of the day—the first practice—I endo'd so hard… all day my back was a little sore and honestly it kind of scared me," Jason explained, post-race. "I was very hesitant all day, and even in that heat race I was like a 5th place guy."
Anderson managed to qualify in his heat race and take the win despite a mediocre hole shot where he found himself in 6th. But in the last lap, there were two lead changes as Jason battled his points trailer, Ken Roczen. "That battle at the end of the race was crazy," Jason said. "We were both making mistakes and the track was hard to [hit] your marks… it was insane, but it felt great."
Jason and his 15 point lead head south for the sixth stop of the season at Petco Park next weekend. Dragon's 250 rider Mitchell Harrison finished 9th, an improvement over his first few races this year. He'll have his work cut out for him next week as it's the first East-West shootout so the field will be stacked with more solid racers including 250 East champion Zach Osborne and fellow Dragon rider Michael Mosiman.

Forgiveness is a miracle of grace whereby the offense no longer separates. ... It means that we will no longer use the offense to drive a wedge between us, hurting and injuring one another. Forgiveness means that the power of love that holds us together is greater than the power of the offense that separates us. That is forgiveness. In forgiveness we are releasing our offenders so that they are no longer bound to us ... freeing them to receive God's grace.
There are insects always within sight, there are lights and shadows at play this very moment, but in our distraction we miss the drama that could accompany our quiet attention and give us the pieces of light we crave.
There are times when life can't help itself and, as the Psalmist wrote, "Deep calls unto deep." Then the mass of the world dances on the pinhead of our wonderment, and our breath so carefully cultivated carries us, like the wind, whithersoever it will.
Let us stay in our chairs as long as we dare, breathing gently until another rhythm takes over. Let us risk inaction, become receptive, give our thoughts to the blank wall, let our layers be peeled back, accept our dreams as true even if we must wait and wait, trusting that all human life is part of an intricate unfolding of the One Reality.
We need to sit still, let our emptiness remain empty, and wait patiently. If we fill the foreground with busy questions, reasons or proposed actions, we will miss the God who is the silent, yet ever present horizon of the world.
We find our quiet minds as we sit still with our breath, as we make small jottings in our books, and as we practice silent waiting. Then one day, "the little ways" open into broad expanses.
There are two silences. One silence I choose to keep when I need to hear a word that will heal, instruct, or console. The other silence comes when I have heard something so powerful, so real, that words, spoken or written, would only diminish its power.
One day builds on another. Our lives accumulate in increments of moments, hours, and days. Everything depends on this present moment and our courage to turn aside in delight, wonder, and gratitude.
To pray is not to use special language; it is the sound of a cry or a laugh rising from ordinary days. Formal or official words can often be lifeless. To pray we need to return like children to an elemental language of soul, to something close to song, to chant, to playground singing.
Our planet is awash in the gentle light and shadow of an impenetrable Mystery; it is time, in spite of all our vaunted learning and might, to kneel at the rim of the abyss of our profound unknowing.
A hidden river runs beneath the conscious layers of our lives. We become fatigued not from overwork, but from how much energy it takes to stage our lives in order to drown out the sounds of the river inside us.

Our Thief of a Gremlin
I can't even begin to tell you how much I am at my wit's end with our gremlin. And that lil sucker really seems to love to mess with me!! Oh I'm so frustrated I could scream.
It's tweezers and nail clippers. My reading glasses. Now, it's my good scissors. I used them yesterday when I had to ship a box to my brother. Everyone in this house saw them sitting on the livingroom floor with the tape and maker I wrote his info on the box with. Remember, this is just yesterday!! This afternoon, I needed them and couldn't find them. I think "no big deal, I'll just use something else". So, I do and get done what I needed. But tonight, K asks me for them so that she can use them. I tell her I don't know where they are. Hubby says "well, of course, they're still on the livingroom floor where you left them". I send Miss K after them, but she yells back "they're NOT here!!". What?? What do you mean they're not there, don't make me have to get up. So I get up and sure enough….they're GONE!! Every single person saw them sitting there last night or this morning.
Why does this gremlin have it on for me?? GGRRRR Yep, we're going to go 'round and 'round!! I'm going to rip him apart limb by limb….IF I ever find him!!
There's things that have never shown back up. Then there's things that show up a week or so later. There's even times you're walking past something and there sits something you were just looking for. It sure isn't where it belonged. Nobody has used it. It's just moved to some "odd" location.
{walks off stomping my feet}
Brain Lock and Riding the Waves
I can't think of anything to blog about today. I usually write last thing before bed, which is late, so it goes for my "next" day. Last night, I was exhausted and had nothing. Woke up this morning and still had nothing. It's now getting late afternoon and there's STILL nothing. ARG True brain lock has set in. I've decided perhaps I'll just tell you about my day.
I woke up and was glad to see that K wasn't up yet. I love her to death, but I wanted a few minutes of "alone time". That didn't last long when the doorbell rang. I instantly thought I was a day off or someone else was a day off. Ed is normally here on Friday's and with the end of summer, he's been coming over to play with K on Thursday as well. So I peeked out my bedroom window to see a white Ford truck backed into my driveway. Well, I wasn't expecting anyone, I didn't recognize it and I was still in my nightie, so I ignored his ringing the bell 6 times. Yes, 6 times!! This woke K up and she asked if Ed was here on the wrong day and I said no, so she sat down next to me. About that time, I look back toward the window and the black man from the truck is putting our old front door in the back of his truck. Just like that and he left. The man took our old front door!! Can you believe it?? It was propped up against our fence because the man was going to remove the glass and take it down with his cans to get money for the aluminum. That fool just walked away with our door because we didn't answer the door. What made him think he had a right to it when we didn't even answer?? He never even looked back.
I'm still amazed at how brazen that move was!! SHEESH
Miss K has a huge red mound on her arm where she got her shot yesterday. I don't like the look of it at all. She says it hurts and it surely looks like it does. They didn't tell me anything about "an adverse reaction in the location of the injection" yesterday. It's never happened before. It's red, it's hard and it's hot!! Not my idea at all of what it should look like and as I said, it's never happened before.
Our thieving gremlin is back to work. I can't find my reading glasses. I went to Sam's to buy a 4 pack just so I wouldn't be losing glasses. I read something in one room, then move to another room and need them and they turn up in a totally different room. So, I buy the multi-pack to avoid this. Need my glasses to make a phone call and have to look in the phone book and a business card and the glasses I just used are gone. I swear if I find that gremlin me and him are gonna go 'round and 'round!!
Moving on….
I blindly make my phone calls. Miss K and I already have dentist appointments in August that have been scheduled 6 months ago. I call for our eye exams and they get scheduled the day before the dentist appointments. I think this is cool….I'll get it all knocked out before the Schoolhouse starts. Goodness knows I don't need any distractions with that!! Next, I call the OB/GYN on post hoping that I can get in while K is gone next week. Oh h*ll no, that ain't gonna happen. The only day my good ole doc has open is the day after the dentist. I ask for something else….she says "sure, if you want to wait another month". {rolling eyes} Now mind you, I'm already at least 3 months late on this. I've done my best to procrastinate. Heck, I ain't got the goods any more anyway. I just want the refill on the hormones, which have lasted this long because I don't take them every day. Plus, now I'm going to have to decide what to do with K because an appointment on post for the doc can be a day long adventure.
So recapping my schedule, Miss K is gone next week of which my house will be far too quiet because she won't be here AND she's going to be gone longer than usual. Then she comes back and I have the mad dash to make sure my lessons are ready for the Schoolhouse and my religion class. Then, we have an eye exam with a dentist appointment a day later. The day after that is my all day adventure for an on post OB/GYN appointment. I'll have a weekend and the Schoolhouse will begin.
Throw in whatever the man comes up with, usually with last minute notice and our retirement briefings. Man oh man, I love my crazy life!!
And now, we know why it's called…
commotion from the ocean of life!!

Latest Webpage Status: August 9, 2015 Hi Everyone, I need to give my eyes a break so I don't damage my brain. Therefore, I plan on not posting for while so that I can heal. I will try and post an article or message if it is really important. Your prayers are welcome. During this […]
(VI) (DM) Michael Love: GLOBAL MASS ASCENSION, SEPTEMBER 28, 2015, AS WAVE-X BOMBARDS THE EARTH! / UNPRECEDENTED COSMIC WAVE TO IMPACT EARTH IN LATE SEPTEMBER 2015 – AA Michael / AN EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT FOR OUR STAR FAMILY! – AA Michael
1. The earth is moving into a region of the galaxy that is leading to increasing cosmic energies impacting our sun and altering human DNA.
2. It's important to note that we are already well inside this cosmic gamma blast referred to as WAVE-X and many of you have been feeling this energetic increase that will continue in intensity every day until September 28th, 2015.
This great point in humanity's evolution is known as "THE EVENT HORIZON".
NESARA (National Economic Security And Reformations Act) (VI) (DM)
Please share this wonderful and very powerful, realistic, symbolic image of both the Imminent official announcement and implementation of both N.E.S.A.R.A. (the National Economic Security and Reformation Act) and St. Germain's World Trust prosperity packets being made available/delivered on a mass planetary scale along with official E.T.

(VI) (DM) Dr. Michael Salla: Secret Space Program Conferences discuss full disclosure & humanity's future / Questions for Corey Goode on June Secret Space Program Meetings
1. The purpose of the conferences held from June 5-7 were to find how each of these groups would respectively respond to the disclosures soon to occur where humanity learns about the existence of extraterrestrial life and secret space programs; and where a new global financial system replaces the current exploitative one that leads to 'financial slavery' for many.
2. Dr. Michael Salla asked Corey 22 more questions.
(VI) (DM) Corey/GoodETxSG: Federation Council Meeting / SSP Alliance Disclosure in Latest Conference / Have Committed Heinous Crimes Against Us
1. There were various ET Groups that wanted to evacuate their ET Embassies below the surface of the Earth (and its oceans). Some of these facilities had sent distress calls and reported quite a bit of destruction and loss of life because of attacks and infighting of various groups.
2. They said because of recent events that a rift had developed between them and their former off world leaders and the deceptive ancient human groups that many of them had considered gods.
3. … but if we are going to transition to a 4th Density Positive Civilization we need to focus on becoming more loving, forgiving and raising our consciousness/vibrations. The last thing we need to do is lower ourselves to the level of those who committed these crimes and enslaved us.
Mr. Keshe: World Peace Day is declared on June 21, 2015: A Roadmap to World Peace (VI) (DM)
On the twenty-first of May 2015, the Keshe Foundation in its weekly workshop announced the beginning of setting up the procedure for establishing the promised WORLD PEACE.
Georgi Stankov: Breaking News: The Hyperboreans Confirm THAT The PAT Created the New 5D Platform for Individual Ascension in the Night of June 4th (VI) (DM)
Last night, June the 4th, one month after we began with our conscious bilocations through the "completion of the energetic re-structuring that facilitates the coupling of the human body to the new upper dimensions within the new worlds, the foundational requirement for this new ability known as bi-location" , as the Elohim told us and as demonstrated by our young crystalline PAT member Jennifer, we achieved another epic victory on our way to final ascension.
Disclosure Data from GoodETxSG 6-1-15. "Upcoming Conferences" and "The disinformation war is ramping up even more in June" (VI) (DM)
This is an update from Corey's forum thread. The highlights, to me, were that a series of conferences are coming up this week, and that June will see a further "ramping up" of the disinformation campaign.
(VI) (DM) Dr. Michael Salla: Galactic Human Slave Trade & AI threat to End with Full Disclosure of ET Life / Questions for Corey Goode on SSP Conflicts and Human Slave Trade – May 29/30, 2015 – Part 2
Corey claims that the galactic human slave trade is now opposed by an alliance of Secret Space Programs (SSP Alliance) that plan to disclose the full truth about the abusive practices that has plagued humanity for centuries, if not millennia, due to corrupt local elites (cabal/Illuminati) and intervention by imperial space powers (Draco Empire).
(VI) (DM) Dr. Michael Salla: Secret Space War Halts As Extraterrestrial Disclosure Plans Move Forward / Question s for Corey Goode on SSP Conflicts and Human Slave Trade – May 29/30, 2015 – Part 1
Large scale hostilities in an undeclared war being fought in deep space, Mars and on Earth between two secret space program alliances have come to a temporary halt according to the latest in a series of disclosures by secret space program whistleblower, Corey Goode (aka GoodETxSG).
Hollow Earth Conference Call Replay & Important Notes (VI) (DM) – Update
(VI) (DM) Alien Base for Giants Discovered in the Bucegi Mountains – Vids / Ancient Holographic Hall Of Records Found In Romania: Interview with Peter Moon – Vid
1. In the summer of 2003, in an unexplored area of the Bucegi Mountains, a team from Zero Department (a top secret section of the Romanian Intelligence Service (SRI)), had made an epochal discovery, which could had completely change mankind's destiny.
2. Interview with Peter Moon on the Romanian Hall of Records
(VI) (DM) The big transition is upon us. See the full dreambot run at this link / Urgent Preparation for the Emergency Case – Our Ascension
1. I see this aspect of our run to be not only descriptive, but also predictive. The uber-patriarchal world is coming to a head in the near future. There's no way around it. It's like a runaway freight train smashing into fate.
2. If you lived in a reality where it was always dark as night, and then one day a sun came up, that is much how you will experience this shift. The darkness, fear, and illusion that have hampered your perceptions for eons, especially since the fall of Atlantis, will be transmuted into light. Then you will perceive reality, YOUR reality, on Earth, in the same manner that we, your Galactic and Celestial family, perceive your reality within our NOW.
(VI) (DM) Georgi Stankov: Breaking News: Our Ascension Portal Is Completed / Georgi Stankov: Only One in 300 Humans May Ascend & Sal Rachele: Physical Ascension – Leah
1. Then late in the evening St. Germain came to me and announced solemnly that we have finished with the preparation of our ascension portal which is directly linked to our joint Merkabah. Since yesterday we have the strong feeling of saying farewell to this reality. Some other side events have reinforced this notion.
2. About three-tenths of one percent of humanity is on the path of physical ascension (that's roughly 1 in every 300 humans).
(VI) (DM) Extraterrestrial alliance helps secret space program overcome opposition to full disclosure / Questions for Corey Goode on Sphere Alliance and Solar Warden Space Program
Yes, when FULL Disclosure occurs it will also come with the disclosure of massive crimes against humanity that will send the bulk of society into shock for some time. The fact that there are aliens will not be as disruptive or shocking as what all the "Elites" have done in secret during the time they were hiding the existence of aliens and most of all the high technology that would have ended the financial system decades ago.
(VI) (DM) Georgi Stankov: Breaking News: The Era of Conscious Bilocation Has Commenced! / Carla Thompson: This Is a New Day, a New Dawn! – The Beginning of Conscious Bilocations! – the Elohim
The Elohim have interrupted their prolonged radio silence and announced in elated mood and with great joy yesterday evening that we have completed the energetic infrastructure of etheric corridors and portals, which will allow massive conscious bilocations and ID travels within the confines of multidimensional Gaia 5 and later on intergalactically.

Words by Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849)
Music by Richard C. Davis
It was many and many a year ago,
in a kingdom by the sea
That there lived a maiden whom you may know
by the name of Annabel Lee.
And this maiden she lived
with no other thought
than to love and be loved by me.
Well, she was a child and I was a child
in this kingdom by the sea.
And we loved with a love that was greater than love,
my Annabel Lee and me.
With a love that the angels
in heaven above . . .
they coveted her and me.
Well, this is the reason that long ago,
in this kingdom by the sea,
That a wind came out of a cloud,
chillin' my Annabel Lee
So her high-born Kinsmen came
and they bore her away from me,
And they put her in a sepulchre by the sea.
Well, the angels not as happy in heaven,
went envying her and me
Yes, this is the reason that all men know
that I lost my Annabel Lee
That a wind came out
of a cloud by night,
chillin' (killin') my Annabel Lee.
Well, our love it was stronger by far
than the love of those who were older than we
And neither the angels in heaven above,
nor the demons under the sea
Can ever dissever
my soul from the soul
of my beautiful Annabel Lee.
Well, the moon never beams without bringin' me dreams
of my beautiful Annabel Lee
And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes
of my beautiful Annabel Lee
And so all the night tide
I sit by the side
of my darling, my life, and my bride.
In a sepulchre there by the sea.
In a tomb by the sounding sea.
With my beautiful Annabel Lee.
