The Catholic Bishops Conference has issued a strongly worded statement in which it described the President's threat of sanctions against religious discrimination in schools as unwarranted.
'We wish to assure Heads of our Catholic Educational Institutions to remain resolute and not feel unduly intimidated by threat of sanctions. We expect our Heads to continue to manage our schools in ways and practices that are in conformity with our Catholic identity and mission,' the statement issued in Accra yesterday said.
During his 2015 State of the Nation Address last Thursday, President John Mahama waded into the controversy over religious discrimination as expressed by some Muslim groups that their religious rights were being violated.
Some WAEC officials in the Western Region were said to have asked candidates taking passport-sized photos during registration for the exams to remove their headscarves or hijabs because they concealed features including the forehead, nose and chin.
Some Muslim groups in Takoradi in the Western Region subsequently protested against what they described as discrimination against them in Christian schools.
The President told the nation that 'it is wrong under our Constitution for Muslim students to be compelled to attend church services or for Christian students to be compelled to attend Muslim congregational prayers… Heads of institutions must note this for strict compliance. Appropriate sanctions will be taken against any head of institution who acts contrary to the constitutional provisions of our country'.
In a reaction to the President's comments, the Catholic leaders said they believe this statement constitutes a threat.
'Needless, we are stating that no citizen in Ghana should allow him/herself to be cowed by any intimidation or threat of sanction from any individuals,' they said in the statement.
The Bishops argued that students have a choice between Christian-based schools and Islamic ones. They stated that if students want to attend schools that do not fit their faith, they should be ready to abide by their regulations.
"Certain Catholic traditions must be observed the same way if you go to an Islamic school traditions will be observed," they maintained.
Most Rev Joseph Osei-Bonsu
They noted that the Ghana Education Service (GES) after the President's statement has also issued a directive that all students, irrespective of their religious beliefs, must attend morning devotions in missionary schools.
'We are trying to encourage our students, notwithstanding their faith, to come together to worship and it brings about national unity. If a Muslim takes part in morning worship it doesn't mean the person is being forced to convert to Christianity,' the Public Relations Officer of GES, Charles Parker Allotey, explained.
In view of the "contradiction" between the GES' statement and President Mahama's "threat" to sanction school heads who force down religious practices on students, the Bishops called for dialogue to resolve the matter.
"One party cannot just come and issue directives without consulting the other. Government is only one stakeholder," the President of the Ghana Catholic Bishops' Conference, Most Rev Joseph Osei-Bonsu, said.
Bishop Osei-Bonsu said students who cannot comply with the religious rules and practices in Catholic schools should quit and move to other schools, if they so desire.
According to him, many of the students who attend Catholic schools choose the schools because of the age-long discipline and religious ethics that have existed in those schools.
Bishop Osei-Bonsu told Citi FM in a follow up interview that students of other religious persuasions who cannot stand the rules and regulations in Catholic schools can opt out.
'When people decide to go to particular schools, they do so because of the culture and beliefs of that school.
'And therefore, they agree to abide by those regulations; but if they don't like the regulations, they can go somewhere else,' he stated.

CARSON, California (Reuters) - Landon Donovan ended his career with a third title in four years as the LA Galaxy enjoyed a 2-1 extra-time win over the New England Revolution in Sunday's MLS Cup and said he would struggle to replace the joy of victory.
Donovan, the all-time top scorer in Major League Soccer and for the U.S. national team, retires at the relatively young age of 32.
The Californian has won six MLS titles in his career with the Galaxy and the San Jose Earthquakes. He said after celebrating in the locker room that he would need to find another source of satisfaction.
"There is no experience like what just happened. If you work a desk job or a nine-to-five job there is no real experience where you get to feel that. I can't imagine anything coming close to that in my life going forward so I am going to miss that greatly," he told reporters.
"That is hard, I think that is why a lot of athletes struggle after they retire, you can't get that back. I have to be aware of that and find other things that I am passionate about".
Donovan had a relatively quite game but the affection of the team's fans for him was evident from the chants of his name and the 'Thank You' signs held in the crowd.
But the striker, who also had short spells in England with Everton and with Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, said it felt right to be leaving the game.
"It does. It feels great. As much excitement as there is about the game, there is excitement that tomorrow I don't have to train anymore, I don't have to do a lot of the things that are not fun parts of the job.
"Alongside that though I don't get experiences like today but it feels good to go out in this way," he said.
Donovan has offered no clue as to his next career moves and it would be a surprise if he were to move into coaching or administration.
The only involvement with the game that he did mention was returning to enjoy some kick-arounds with his elder brother who had introduced him to the sport.
"I'll definitely be doing that," he said.

England will donate half of their match fees from the first Test against India starting on Thursday to the victims of last month's attacks in Mumbai, batsman Alastair Cook said on Tuesday.
Reading out a team statement, Cook said the past week had been very difficult for the team and that their return to India was a "public statement in support for the Indian people following the tragic event in Mumbai."
The militant attacks in India's financial capital killed at least 171 people, prompting England to cut short their one-day series and return home.
"As a cricketer, first and foremost, (we are here) to win a test match series in India. The England players will pay half their match fees from the first test match to the families of the victims of the Mumbai attacks," he said.
England arrived in India on Monday after security experts were satisfied of the measures put in place for the two test matches which were switched to Chennai from Ahmedabad and to Mohali (Dec. 19-23) from Mumbai.

Karen Lewis, via Huffington Post: "We are in a moment where the wealth disparity in this country is very reminiscent of the robber baron ages. The labor leaders of that time, though, were ready to kill. They were. They were just -- off with their heads. They were seriously talking about that. I don't think we're at that point. And that's scary to most people. But the key is they think nothing of killing us. They think nothing of putting our people in harm's way. They think nothing of lethal working conditions."

This month is National Novel Writing Month, or #NaNoWriMo as it is known on Twitter. I am already working on two novels currently, Oasis in the Clouds and Fire Like Silver. Once I found out about National Novel Writing Month, my heart dropped – but only because I thought it was for the month of October! I was so disappointed that I had missed the opportunity. And when I found out it is in NOVEMBER, my heart dropped again, lower. I already have two novels in the works, can I really start a third one?
I would like to share with you writers out there the dangers and benefits of writing multiple novels at once. Here are two main points:
– You already have a novel in progress. You may be halfway through, at the beginning, or nearing the end. You are stuck, or bored, so you decide to take one of the brilliant ideas that has been forming in your head for a new one, and start that one.
DANGER: Are you putting your current novel aside because your bored? This could be because your novel boring, or just because you need a change. Figure out which one it is. If it is the first, consider changing something. If it is the latter, go right ahead and start that other novel!
PLUS: Are you putting your current novel aside because you are stuck? In this case I say, full speed ahead to your other novel. I have found that when I am writing and I am stuck at a certain point, it really helps to switch topics for a while before coming back. This, however, does not necessarily mean writing another novel. You can also try getting out of the house or office for a while, take a walk around the block or through the forest, or invite some friends over for movie night.
On a side note: It would be a good skill to develop, because some editors and publishers might require you to work on multiple novels.
– You already have multiple novels (I'm talking 3 or more)
DANGER: Be careful that you aren't putting a novel aside to never be finished. If you get discouraged because something isn't turning out the way you wanted to, keep two things in mind. One, YOU are the author, not your book. Go back and find a place where you can start over, without completely getting rid of all of your book. Two, a rough draft is never pretty. Try to just keep on writing, even if it seems like it's going to hell. You will get out of the hole.
PLUS: The only plus I can think of for this point is that you will have a lot of ready-to-be-finished novels. But that can also be seen negatively.
So basically what I'm saying is: If you want to start another novel, great! But first think about why you are abandoning or setting aside your first one(s) first.
And if you are thinking about participating in NaNoWriMo, DO IT. Since it requires you to write only 50,000 words, it is more than doable, and it gives you motivation to finish what you started.

A landlord is suing his real estate agency after a police raid discovered a meth lab and a dismembered body in his property, according to a report.
Nicholas Wyman told the Herald Sun that the property has been left in an unsellable state while the clean-up has already cost him $85,000.
Speaking with the Herald Sun, Mr Wyman has decided to sue RT Edgar Ocean Grove, located in Bellarine, Victoria, after he saw the footage of the police raid on the news.
"I had no idea that my property was being used in this way," Mr Wyman told the newspaper.
The Herald Sun report stated that the house, which has been declared off-limits by the local council, was rented in late 2011 under the name Jacob Gilmore. This name was later found to be fake.
The property, which was first valued at $885,000, may need to be demolished, the report added.
"Mr Wyman estimates the present value of the property does not exceed $500,000, if the property is indeed saleable at all," the statement of claim said, according to the Herald Sun.
Speaking with Real Estate Business, the director at RT Edgar Ocean Grove, Ian Friend, said while he was unable to discusss the details of the matter due to legal reasons, this type of incident can be difficult for property managers to avoid.
"When you're dealing with professional criminals like these guys, they will use everything and have everybody setup everywhere [to ensure success], so that's the biggest problem we've got," he said.
The news comes after insurance firm Terri Scheer warned property managers earlier this year to watch out for drug labs.
"Tenants involved in illicit drug manufacture can go to great lengths to hide such activities from property managers and may abscond before their lease is up for renewal, so they can be difficult to detect if you do not know what to look out for," Terri Scheer insurance manager, Carolyn Majda, said.
"While conducting inspections, look out for signs that the property is being lived in. Illegal drug manufacturers generally do not live at the properties they use to cultivate crops.
"Intense lights used in hydroponics can visibly fade paintwork, so look behind hanging pictures for signs of colour variations on walls. Chemical waste is commonly disposed of down the drain, so ensure there are no blockages in the plumbing system and that the pipes are in good working order."
"Try pulling up the carpet – if it comes away from the floor easily, it may have been removed to prevent staining in the drug manufacturing process and re-laid prior to inspection," she continued.
"Windows that are constantly covered or sealed during the day and night, and rooms that are covered in alfoil are also common signs that drugs may have been manufactured at the property."

Traders put faith in 'circuit breakers' after dive
Two weeks after the stock market's record dive, regulators have a plan to keep it from happening again by essentially calling "time out" when trading gets too chaotic. The question is whether that will work.
AP Business Writer
Two weeks after the stock market's record dive, regulators have a plan to keep it from happening again by essentially calling "time out" when trading gets too chaotic. The question is whether that will work.
The big exchanges say that new curbs on trading known as "circuit breakers" will help prevent runaway market drops. But not everyone is convinced. To some market watchers, the rules are too limited. To others, the rules go too far.
The reality is that we may not know who's right until there is another wild trading day like the one that stunned Wall Street on May 6. Intense selling sent the Dow Jones industrials down to a loss of almost 1,000 points in less than 30 minutes.
Under the plan announced Tuesday by the Securities and Exchange Commission, trading of any Standard & Poor's 500 stock that rises or falls 10 percent or more within a five-minute period would be halted for five minutes. The rules would be applied if the price swing occurs between 9:45 a.m. and 3:35 p.m. Eastern time. That's almost the entire trading day.
The idea is that by giving investors a break during extreme market dips, they'll be less likely to set off a chain reaction of human and computerized selling.
That's one of several possible causes of the May 6 plunge. The drop, which some market watchers are calling a "flash crash," briefly wiped out $1 trillion in market value as some stocks traded as low as 1 cent.
What if the new circuit breakers were in place that day?
"I believe that day would've played out significantly different," said Joe Ratterman, CEO of the third-largest U.S. stock exchange, BATS Exchange, which helped devise the new rules.
"There would've been chaos," Ratterman said, "but that pausing would've created enough breathing room for people to realize that the falling prices weren't based on fundamentals," or economic or corporate news.
"You wouldn't have seen all those stocks trading for a penny."
On May 6, about 30 stocks in the S&P 500 index fell at least 10 percent within five minutes. Halting trading of those stocks would have put a lid on the panic and kept more investors in the market, said Manoj Narang, founder and CEO of Tradeworx, a firm that uses super-fast computers to trade.
Narang's firm and others stopped trading on May 6 to avoid trades that would later be canceled. That can happen in times of extreme volatility, when the prices on some trades turn out to be wrong. Thousands of trades were indeed canceled that day. However, some analysts believe that by not trading, those firms accelerated the market's fall because they increased the vacuum of both buyers and sellers.
"I would've loved to have kept trading because we would've done great," Narang said.
A trading pause would also give investors time to investigate whether a stock's drop is caused by a market-moving event or a technical glitch, Narang added.
"Taking five minutes to let people figure out what's going on certainly isn't harmful in my mind," he said.
Still, given that regulators have yet to determine the cause of the market's dive, some market watchers question how they can be so sure they can prevent another drop.
"I'm absolutely skeptical," said J.W. Verret, a former SEC defense lawyer who teaches corporate and securities law at George Mason University. "One risk I see with is that we're coming up with solutions before we understand the problem."
He called circuit breakers a "blunt instrument" that could interfere with the markets' role in determining what a stock's price should be.
"Sometimes a stock needs to drop," Verret said.
Others say the new SEC rules don't go far enough.
The new circuit breakers will apply to all 50 or so U.S. exchanges. But they would only kick in only for 500 of the some 8,000 publicly traded U.S. stocks. After a six-month trial, the SEC and the exchanges could expand the rules to include more stocks. In the meantime, some longtime traders aren't happy with the unequal treatment for stocks.
"If you're going to put in circuit breakers, then put them across the board," said Ted Weisberg of Seaport Securities.
Circuit breakers are "a Band-Aid, not a solution," said Weisberg, who has spent 41 years as a New York Stock Exchange floor trader.
But that may be all that's needed for now, said John Coffee, a securities law professor at Columbia University.
"This does not need to be the perfect circuit breaker," Coffee said in an e-mail. "All that is needed is a common rule that throws enough sand into the gears to prevent a computer-driven race to the bottom."
The exchanges are confident that circuit breakers won't interfere with the market's pricing of stocks, said Ratterman of BATS Exchange. Still, he cautioned that there's no guarantees that even with circuit breakers, the market won't see more wild drops.
"The nature of our markets is that anything is possible," he said. "You have oil spills, volcanos and the Greece crisis ...., and a lot of people have their finger on the sell button."

MMORPGs are one of the most played games ever.Here are some sites , for playing free MMORPGs:
Lineage 2 The Chaotic Throne
Lineage 2 is one of the most played MMORPGs in the world.I remember my 1st contact whit the game . It was long ago , even i dont remember , maybe 3 yers , i dont know . Lineage 2 have a lot of expansions . Lineage 2 Chronicle 2 ( L2C2 ) was my 1st contact and it was indescrible . After that L2C3 , L2C4 , L2C5 , L2 Interlude and whit every new chapter , there was a lot of new things like weapons and armors , monsters , quests , areas , PVP arenas , towns , castels ...
In this game they are 6 types of weapons and armors - NO-GRADE , D-GRADE , C-GRADE , B-GRADE , A-GRADE and S-GRADE . Weapons have several special abilities and armor have bonuses when you collect the all set or not all .
In the game there is a CASTLE SIEGES . Whats that ?! Well this is very good mode . Two or more than two teams - one attackers , one deffenders . Attackers must capture the CASTLE for ~2 hours , and deffenders must deffend the castle . You can see a lot of people there .
So , to run the game you don't need extreme PC . But if you dont want to have frps lag you should get more powerfull PC .
Here is a litle story from the game :
|The World of Lineage II
The world of Lineage II is a war-torn land spanning two continents, where trust and betrayal clash as three kingdoms vie for power. The young king Raoul has successfully quenched a civil war and established the newest kingdom, Aden. Elmore, the military superpower located in the northern part of the continent, boasts that it is a direct descendent of ancient Elmoreden kingdom. Gracia, located across the ocean on the west, is currently embroiled in a chaotic battle among blood relatives trying to take over the throne. These kingdoms share a delicate balance of power; however, within each kingdom they are vulnerable to internal strife, as each manor has strong desire for self-rule.
You have been thrown into this chaos. However, unlike the ordinary people who pray each day for safety, you have the power to protect yourself. In Lineage II, developing a character is not an end in itself. Rather, it is your instrument to obtain the power to enforce your will in this world. Seize your destiny! Your own hand will write the history of this world.
System Requirements :
P 3 800 MHz
64 MB 3DVideo Card
|Combat System
|In Lineage II, what you see on the screen is in real time. Therefore, it is critical to make an appropriate decision quickly for every situation you get in. Lineage II pursues both strategic features and action-oriented features by offering client-server synchronization and production of a client's battle at the same time.
You will battle monsters with superior AI, use skills that need to be selected according to each particular situation, overcome situations through teamwork with other clan members, and experience action that is always thrilling, even when you kill a single monster.
|Uniquely Specialized Races and Classes
Humans are the race of diversity and potential. Among all creatures, Humans were the weakest. However, they have cultivated their own destiny and are now the most influential of the races. Among all races, they have the highest proportion of people holding high level professions, and they have the balanced capability to handle all types of professions.
The representative secondary classes for Humans are Knight, Warrior, Rogue, Cleric, and Wizard.
Elves worship the goddess of water, Eva. They have slim figures and long ears, and are characterized by their pure and innocent beauty. During the Era of Giants, they were the most powerful of the races. However, since the giants were destroyed and the era of power arrived, the power of the Elves has declined. Now, they dwell in the Elven Forest, part of Aden.
Secondary classes for Elves include Elven Knight, Elven Scout, Elven Wizard, and Elven Oracle.
|Dark Elf
Dark Elves follow Shilen, the goddess of death who used to be the goddess of water before her fall from grace.
Originally, the Dark Elves used to belong to the Elven tribes. When the Elves were defeated by Humans, some of the Elves decided to learn black magic, the power of Gran Kain and Shilen, in order to obtain the power to defeat Humans. Their overall appearance is similar to that of Elves. However, they are taller and have dusky skin and silvery hair.
Dark Elves evolve into Palus Knight, Assassin, Dark Wizard, and Shillien Oracle classes.
The Dwarves are the race of earth. They like to create things, possessing strong physical power and excellent manual dexterity.
After the destruction of the giants, the Dwarven race adopted the policy of "siding with the most powerful," and as a result they became an isolated race. Their structure of society can be compared to a giant corporation. Even though Humans rule over the continent, Dwarves are renowned for their business savvy and capacity for organization. The Dwarf classes are divided into Scavengers, who find and retrieve raw materials, and Artisans, who manufacture products out of raw materials.
|Raising Dragons
|The taming system in Lineage allowed players to tame dogs and wolves as pets. A pet system exists in Lineage II as well. However, this time not only can you raise a wolf, but dragons and other animals.
The system for raising a dragon is somewhat different from the general taming system. If you would like to raise a dragon, you must first obtain the Hatchling from a quest. The Hatchling is similar in size to a dog, cute in appearance, and considers and obeys the player who hatched him as a parent. The Hatchling fights like other pets and gradually grows as it gains experience.
When the Hatchling reaches a certain level of experience, the second stage of raising your dragon begins: the Hatchling becomes a Strider. The Strider is a dragon that runs across the land at high speed, like a horse, carrying his master on his back. The Strider also gains experience through fighting and raises its level as it gradually grows.
To obtain a Wyvern, the final stage of raising a dragon, the castle lord must speak to the Wyvern Manager at the uppermost floors of the castle. The player travels the world on the Wyvern, flames shooting from its mouth as it goes around all barriers, and performs an independent role in siege warfare.
|Parties and Clans
|Characters in Lineage II have diverse and unique traits. When they combine their power, they can become a very powerful force as they work together to defeat a powerful enemy. While hunting solo in a dangerous area, you may meet a passerby and discover that the two of you are of like mind, and so you form a party.
If you hunt in a party often, you will probably get a regular group together with whom you meet up regularly. Perhaps the group will have various goals and ambitions. When a group shares the same goal and has firm convictions, they will establish a clan. The goal can be mere friendship and fraternization, ongoing self-training, or the overthrow of the current castle rulers. A clan is a gathering of people who share the same mission and try together to accomplish a common goal.
|Dramatic Castle Sieges
|The power of the King is strong, but the King cannot ignore the Castle Lords. The local Lords have power similar to the King in the territory he rules, and each lives in a huge castle built in the territory. Most of the Lords rebuilt the fortress ruins of the Era of Giants that still remained and now use them as their castles; even after thousands of years the excellence of the ancient technologies easily surpasses modern fortification technology. A strong castle is one of the most important defenses for the Lord.
Other clans who attempt to seize power also want to own a castle. Since the purpose of the many clans is to rule the territory according to their ideals, the capturing of the castle is their ultimate goal.
Siege warfare is an innovative PvP combat system that began in Lineage. Lineage II's siege warfare has two major goals: to bring out the best player strategies, and to create evolving political drama and excitement. Siege warfare can continuously create different strategies, even after several months or several years, and will leave you breathless and excited when you stand fully armed with your allies in front of the taken castle.
Numerous privileges are given to the clans who occupy the castle. They impose a tax on the shops around the castle, expand the facilities within the castle, manufacture various items, and offer the Castle Lord a Wyvern to conquer the sky. There are various systems in which the castle-owning clans operate and maintain many public facilities used by other players to make a profit. In this structure, the players and the clan who occupy the castle get win-win results through systems like the manor system. Even the clan that is strongest in force cannot maintain political power without support from other players.

text: The Burro Incentive Program is a cooperative agreement between Family Horses Inc and the Bureau of Land Management's Wild Horse and Burro Program. This agreement was formed in November of 2015. Our goal is to work with the BLM and trainers around the United States to find homes for BLM burros. The Burro Incentive Program offers trainers a small incentive to pickup burros from their local BLM facility, train them and find adoptive homes. The adopter receives the benefit of being able to take home an animal with some basic training, all while paying the same $125 adoption fee they would pay to adopt a wild burro. The end goal is to help more burros find homes and we are doing just that! Check out our current program statistics! Use the menus above to find out how you can train or adopt a BLM burro through this program!

Discuss the factors which determine freely floating exchange rates. Discuss the view that an appreciation of the currency is always beneficial and depreciation always harmful.
Extracts from this document...
a) Discuss the factors which determine freely floating exchange rates. b) Discuss the view that an appreciation of the currency is always beneficial and depreciation always harmful. A freely floating Exchange Rate is an exchange rate with no government or central bank action to keep it stable, this means that the determination of the exchange rate is left to market forces. On one hand, the appreciation of the currency is when the exchange rate is subject to an increase meaning that the currency of the country buys more of all other foreign currencies. On the other hand, a depreciation of the currency leads to a fall in the exchange rate therefore the currency of the domestic country buys less than all other foreign currencies. Two parts will be attributed to this essay, the first being the discussion of the factors that determine freely floating exchange rates, then the discussion of whereas an appreciation of the currency is always beneficial or not and whereas a depreciation is always harmful or not. ...read more.
so that they can profit from it. Nevertheless, this profit will only be in the short-run because in the long-run, the price will stabilize because the price of coffee in the U.S. will decrease and the price of coffee in Japan increase therefore this will lead to an equilibrium of prices where the price of coffee in Japan will be the same than the one in the U.S.. If the currency appreciates, it is true that the value of the currency will increase giving the country a more powerful exchange rate. For an appreciation to happen the demand of the currency has to increase and the imports decrease. By looking first at inflation with an appreciation of the currency it can be noted that inflation will decrease because the country's exports will become more competitive if the currency is appreciating and therefore the imports will be less competitive leaving us with a rise in demand and a fall in supply of the currency. ...read more.
Because of this depreciation, it can also be seen that the inflation domestically will be higher than abroad leading to a fall in demand for the currency thus the imports will be cheaper to buy than domestic produced goods therefore the supply for the currency will rise leading to a perfect example of inflation. Another disadvantage of this depreciation of the currency is that if the prospects for investment are better abroad, a domestic citizen will invest abroad leading to a fall in demand and a rise in supply of the currency. In conclusion, it can be said that the freely floating exchange rate has more advantages than disadvantages which make it a good theory to adapt in real life whereas in the other we have confirmed that an appreciation has only positive aspects which can benefit the currency and a depreciation in the currency is very harmful for a country's currency because of its negative aspects.

"A cool skier, who can win cool"
" Unshakable, McRae knows how to handle pressure like no one"
McRae is a discreet man. The kind of skier who doesn't make a wave, but once on the skis, becomes the center of attention. He's also the one who surprised everyone by winning X Games in 2013. McRae is an American with English peacefulness and an Irish ginger mustache. But don't be deceived by this soft and calm character, McRae is a competitor. At age 26, McRae stomped landings, his regularity and his seriousness scare the rest of the field. It's his first participation in the Sosh Big Air and he will not play small.

IAN Telecentar is the first non-governmental organization given the status of Advanced ECDL test center.
What is Advanced ECDL?
The Advanced ECDL certificate, like all ECDL certificates, is recognized in 150 countries and translated into 41 foreign languages. It was introduced in Dublin on April 4, 2003 in response to the demands of the market. 32, 000 candidates from across the world have already gotten this certificate, and the number is increasing everyday. The curriculum was developed with input from the ECDL-F, which consists of IT professionals, and in consultation with the course material providers and students.
How do I obtain an Advanced ECDL certificate?
Advanced ECDL confirms a higher degree of knowledge about the essential elements of the ECDL. It is designed as an upgraded ECDL certificate and delves deeper into topic areas covered in basic ECDL courses. Individuals receive the certificate after successfully completing all four of the following modules:
- Advanced Word Processing (Word)
- Advanced Spreadsheets (Excel)
- Advanced Database (Access)
- Advanced Presentation
Why do I need an Advanced ECDL certificate?
Enhanced ECDL knowledge is a logical progression for those who have already received the basic ECDL certificate and who wish to further develop their knowledge and skills, while also demonstrating their ability to use computers at a higher level. The advanced levels of these modules indicate that the candidate has already mastered some basic skills, has acquired some knowledge covered on the basic ECDL syllabus, and is now ready for the next level. Advanced ECDL certificates provide proof of a greater mastery of computer skills than achieved through the basic ECDL certificates and are therefore a wonderful asset to anyone's resume.

[Editor's note: This attack on Russia continues into the 21st century now being managed through Ukraine, Georgia and Afghanistan. It is driven by three motivations.
A hatred of the Russians by the Khazars who converted to Talmud Judaism, Roman Catholicism and Sunni Wahhabism, dissolved the Khazar state and migrated to Europe and the Middle East. The objective as can be seen in the previous article posted: No Alcohol In Saudi Arabia, But Plenty Of Drugs! – Saudi famous twitter "Mujtahid" revealed the biggest drug dealers in Saudi Arabia are influential figures of the Al-Saud.
The total destruction of the Orthodox Christian Byzantine Empire started in the 13th century with the sacking of Constantinople, continued through the Khazar Turkish converts to Sunni Islam where it was destroyed altogether, the Napoleonic wars, WW1, WW2 and now WW3.
The control of all Russian oil assets and other resources.
Although this article focuses on the "Jewish" Shiff banker family, they have always been in collusion with the Rockefellers whose interest is taking over Russian oil resources, the Vatican who for over 1,000 years has wanted to bring the Apostolic Orthodox Christian Church under the control of the autocratic Roman Catholic Pope, and the mass extermination of Orthodox Christians in the Middle East, the oldest Christian communities in the world going back 2,000 years, as we have seen in their persecution in northern Iraq, Syria, Armenia and Egypt in the 21st century.]
by Mike King:
Jacob Schiff washed upon America's shores in 1865, shortly after the Civil War. During the 1700's, his Schiff ancestors had actually shared a home with the legendary Rothschilds, in Frankfurt's Jewish quarter.
Schiff went on to head the firm Kuhn, Loeb & Co. From his base in New York, he was the foremost Jewish leader from 1880 to 1920 in what is now referred to by Jewish-American historians as "The Schiff Era". He served as the Director of many important corporations, including the National City Bank of New York, Equitable Life Assurance Society, Wells Fargo & Company, and the Union Pacific Railroad. Schiff, who made his fortune from interest bearing loans, was the main player behind the 'Hebrew Free Loan Society' in 1892; an organization which issued interest-free loans only to Jews (and is still in operation!)
Schiff's descendants exercised some power and influence in their own right, though nothing like the Patriarch did. Schiff's granddaughter, Dorothy Schiff, was the owner and Publisher of the New York Post for over 40 years. She once claimed to have "had a relationship" with Franklin D Roosevelt.
Kareena Gore-Schiff, the daughter of former Senator, almost US President, and Global Warming con man Al Gore, is married to Andrew Schiff, the great great grandson of Jacob.
1- The Rothschild-Schiff home (shared ownership, 1700's) in Frankfurt Germany.
2- Dorothy Schiff – New York Press Queen
3- Kareena Gore marries into Zionist royalty as proud papa Al cashes-in on the Global Warming scam.
It's not merely that Schiff wielded enormous power, but rather the fact that his actions, more so than anyone else's, fundamentally altered the course of American history. Schiff was really the first true Jewish Mega-Mogul of the whole United States (Judah Benjamin had previously run the confederacy). As the first, Schiff, more than anyone who followed him, was able to leverage his power into eternity. That is why the MVZ award must go to him.
Let us review Jacob Schiff's impressive scorecard of destruction
Schiff's most history-altering accomplishment would have to be the role of 'Trojan Horse' which he played in the late 1890's. At a time when Jewish influence in America was relatively minor, and Jewish numbers were yet very small, it was Schiff's cajoling of the outgoing U.S. President, and former New York Governor, Grover Cleveland (D) that prevented the massive wave of Jewish immigration to America from being shut down.
The Immigration Bill of 1897 would have required immigrants to pass a literacy test; something that Russian Jews would not have been able to do. After passing both Houses of Congress, Cleveland's veto, induced by Schiff, saved the day for the incoming Communist and Zionist Jews of Russia.
Jewish historian Lawrence J Epstein writes:
"It is staggering to consider the alternative course American Jewish history would have taken had this measure passed."
To which, your intrepid historian-author would like to respond, "and it is equally staggering to consider the alternative course AMERICAN history would have taken had the measure passed."
Schiff's role as Trojan Horse, above all other deeds, would be enough, in and of itself, to qualify him for the MVZ Award. But there's more — a lot more!
Schiff hated Christian Russia with a passion. He worked ceaselessly to overthrow the Romanov Dynasty and replace it with Jewish Reds / Communists. Toward that end, he personally financed, and sold bonds on behalf of, about 50% of the entire Japanese war effort during the Russo-Japanese War. As a result, the war ended with a Japanese victory. Russia's loss was also facilitated by Schiff's boy, President (and also a former New York Governor) Teddy Roosevelt, whose negotiating intervention clearly favored Japan over Russia.
* The left-wing Roosevelt became President after the conservative William McKinley was conveniently assassinated by a Red.
For his role in securing victory for Japan, Schiff was personally awarded a medal, the Order of the Rising Sun, by the foolish Japanese Emperor. We say "foolish" because Schiff's gang and their Roosevelt henchmen were, at the time, already plotting Japan's ultimate demise; a process which started with Teddy's escalating naval moves in the Pacific (Philippines, Midway, Guam, Pearl Harbor), and culminated with Franklin's war and murderous Atomic bombs of 1945 (actually dropped under Truman 4 months after FDR's death).
Schiff's Jewish agents in Russia skillfully used the humiliating loss of the Russo-Japanese war as an occasion to launch a Communist revolution. The bloody Revolution of 1905 ultimately failed, but the Tsar's regime was left considerably weakened. Many of the returning Russian POW's came home brainwashed after Schiff had arranged for Communist propaganda to be given to them while in Japanese captivity. The final Bolshevik overthrow of Russia in 1917 will owe its success, in large part, to the damage done to Russia by the team of Jacob Schiff & Ted the Red Roosevelt on 1905.
Not content with flooding the Northeast with future Communists, Progressives, and Zionists from Russia, Jacob Schiff founded and financed the 'Galveston Movement' – an effort to settle Russian-Jewish immigrants in the south and west of the United States. Schiff himself described the effort in an article he wrote in 1914. Schiff wrote:
"The committee placed itself promptly after its organization into communication with the Jewish Territorial Organization, of which Israel Zangwill is the head, and an arrangement was entered into between that organization and the Galveston Committee, under which the former undertook to make propaganda in Russia and Romania for acquainting intending emigrants with the advantages of going into the United States through Galveston (Texas), rather than to and through the overcrowded and congested North Atlantic ports."
Instead of confining the arrival of Jews to just the New York, New England, Pennsylvania and New Jersey areas, Schiff's clever scheme would facilitate the spread of the liberal/progressive plague to even the most conservative parts of the country. He knew exactly what he was doing!
The NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) is the most well-known Black American organization. What is not widely known is that its founders were ALL Zionist Marxists! Early Jewish co-founders included Julius Rosenwald, Lillian Wald, and Rabbi Emil Hirsch. A black Communist named W.E. Dubois was cleverly put up as the NAACP's front man.
In 1914, Jacob Schiff became a Board member of the NAACP. With a giant like Schiff on board, the organization was now ready for the big time. Zionist money and influence has long dominated this "civil rights" organization, which did not elect a non-Jewish President until 1975!
By design, Schiff's Jewish-controlled NAACP drew Blacks away from the positive influence of the Black-American conservative patriot Booker T. Washington, a dominant Black political leader who believed in America's founding principles and sought to build bridges between Whites and Blacks.
The liberal Democrat NAACP represents the opposite of what the Republican Booker T stood for, which was self reliance. NAACP is an anti- White Globalist Marxist tool that serves to divide Americans while herding radicalized Black voters (who they do not care about!) into the Leftist political camp. As a result, even today, 90-95% of Blacks blindly vote for Democrat candidates.
Without Schiff & friends, there would be no Barack Insane Obongo!
Paul Warburg is widely considered to be the "Father of the Fed". As its first New York City Branch Chairman, it was Warburg who ran the new counterfeiting, loan-sharking and market rigging operation, while an Anglo Saxon named Charles Hamlin provided the protective "Christian" cover as its nominal Chairman.
But in the grand power scheme of things, as powerful as Paul Warburg was, and came to be, Schiff still outranked him, at least in America. Schiff had already been well-established in New York for 37 years before Warburg had even arrived from Germany. Warburg settled in New York in 1902 as a partner in Kuhn, Loeb & Co., where he was junior to Schiff. Schiff was actually the Brother-in-Law to Warburg's wife, Nina Loeb.
Recall that it was Schiff who called the Crash of 1907 in advance, as well as providing an idea for "solution" to such problems in the future. So if Paul Warburg is the "Father of the Fed", then old Jake is the Grandfather.
Whereas in Schiff and Warburg's day it was hidden, the Jewish control of the Fed is now out in the open / Chairmen Greenspan / Bernanke / Yellen
President William H. Taft proved to be a Constitutional Conservative, and not a big government "progressive" like his predecessor Teddy Roosevelt. But what really angered Jacob Schiff most of all was Taft's refusal, told to Schiff in person, to dampen trade relations with Tsarist Russia. According to Henry Ford's sources, Schiff and his entourage left the White House saying. "This means war."
In order to oust the popular Republican Taft in 1912, Schiff and company recruited Teddy Roosevelt to run for President again, as a third party challenger. This maneuver split the Republican vote in two, allowing DemocratWoodrow Wilson to steal the Presidency. Wilson's Jewish owned presidency would turn out to be disastrous for America, and the world (The Fed, World War I, Russian Revolution, Jewish foothold in Palestine, Depression of 1919-1920)
"Jacob Schiff then came back to New York, (He was at that time head of The American Jewish Committee), and in my father's home, in the presence of many prominent men, they decided to get rid of President Taft. They also made plans to get rid of the Republican Party and put in their own party and their own President.
They set up the National Democratic Headquarters at 200 Fifth Avenue and Henry Morgenthau Sr. was made chairman of the Finance Committee. I was made his assistant. I saw everything that went on because I handled all the books. Jacob Schiffand the Jews started looking around for a man to put up as President. They got Woodrow Wilson, a rascal who wasn't worth the powder to blow him to hell!" -Benjamin Freedman
As was the case during the Russo-Japanese War of 1905, the chaos of World War I enabled the Communists (Bolsheviks) to stage another uprising in 1917. Leading the diabolical efforts was Jacob Schiff's loyal agent, Leon Trotsky, freshly reestablished in Russia after having hidden in Brooklyn for the past decade. The Tsar had been forced to abdicate earlier that same year. The provisional government would then be overthrown by the Jewish-led Bolsheviks.
The following year, Schiff's agents murdered the Tsar and his entire family. The reign of terror that the Soviets then ushered in would plague humanity for decades to come. Scores of millions would be murdered! And it could never have happened without the tireless leadership of Rothschild, Schiff and their Junior partners.
Soon after the Revolution, Schiff removed Russia (now the Soviet Union) from his "do-not-lend list.

Suppose you work for a company that makes a highly successful duck pond simulation game, SimUDuck. The game can show a large variety of duck species swimming and making quacking sounds. The initial designers of the system used standard OO techniques and created one Duck superclass from which all other duck types inherit.
For swimming and quacking operations Duck superclass will care of.But we defined display() method abstract to force implement each duck draw itself as what it resembles.
So as we know ducks can fly we need to add this ability. It is time to show up OO programmer skills. Even there already implemented dozens of duck we should add this ability easily, shouldn't we?
Here it seems to easy right? But what if a rubber duck comes into play and it can't (and shouldn't) fly?
A localized update to the code caused a non-local side effect(flying rubber ducks)! So what the thought was a great use of inheritance for the purpose of reuse hasn't turned out so well when it comes to maintenance.
Think about that if you decide to add a duck just for decoration purpose that duck will not fly and quack.
We realized that inheritance probably wasn't the answer, because we just got a memo that says that it is possible to update the product every six months. We know the spec will keep changing and we'll be forced to look at and possibly override fly() and quack() for every new Duck subclass that's ever added to the program… forever. So we need a cleaner way to have only some of the duck types fly or quack.
Interfaces comes into play..
We could take the fly() out of the duck superclass, and make a Flyable interface with a fly() method. That way, only the ducks that ore supposed to fly will implement that interface and have a fly() method… and we might as well make a Quackable, too, since not all ducks can quack.
We know that not all of the subclasses should have flying or quacking behavior, so inheritance isn't the right answer. But while having the subclasses implement Flyable and/or Quackable solves part of the problem (no inappropriately flying rubber ducks), it completely destroys code reuse for those behaviors, so it just creates a different maintenance nightmare. And of course there might be more than one kind of flying behavior even among the ducks that do fly.. At this point you might be waiting for a Design Pattern to come riding in on a white horse and save the day. But what fun would that be? No, we're going to figure out a solution the old-fashioned way—by applying good OO software design principles.
Wouldn't it be dreamy if only there were a way to build software so that when we need to change it, we could do so with the least possible impact on the existing code? We could spend less time reworking code and more making the program do cooler things…
So we know using inheritance hasn't worked out very well, since the duck behavior keeps changing across the subclasses, and it's not appropriate for all subclasses to have those behaviors. The Flyable and Quackable interface sounded promising at first—only ducks that really do fly will be Flyable, etc.—except Java interfaces have no implementation code, so no code reuse. And that means that whenever you need to modify a behavior, you're forced to track down and change it in all the different subclasses where that behavior is defined, probably introducing new bugs along the way!
Take what varies and "encapsulate" it so it won't affect the rest of the code. This results fewer unintended consequences and more flexibility in your systems!
In other words, if you've got some aspect of your code that is changing, say with every new requirement, then you know you've got a behavior that needs to be pulled out and separated from all the stuff that doesn't change. Here's another way to think about this principle: take the parts that vary and encapsulate them, so that later you can alter or extend the parts that vary without affecting those that don't. As simple as this concept is, it forms the basis for almost every design pattern. All patterns provide a way to let some part of a system vary independently of all other parts. Okay, time to pull the duck behavior out of the Duck classes!
Where do we start? As far as we can tell, other than the problems with fly() and quack(), the Duck class is working well and there are no other parts of it that appear to vary or change frequently. So, other than a few slight changes, we're going to pretty much leave the Duck class alone. Now, to separate the "parts that change from those that stay the same", we are going to create two sets of classes (totally apart from Duck), one for fly and one for quack. Each set of classes will hold all the implementations of their respective behavior. For instance, we might have one class that implements quacking, another that implements squeaking, and another that implements silence.
We know that fly() and quack() are the parts of the Duck class that vary across ducks.
To separate these behaviors from the Duck class, we'll pull both methods out of the Duck class and create a new set of classes to represent each behavior.
So how are we going to design the set of classes that implement the fly and quack behaviors? We'd like to keep things flexible; after all, it was the inflexibility in the duck behaviors that got us into trouble in the first place. And we know that we want to assign behaviors to the instances of Duck. For example, we might want to instantiate a new MallardDuck instance and initialize it with a specific type of flying behavior. And while we're there, why not make sure that we can change the behavior of a duck dynamically? In other words, we should include behavior setter methods in the Duck classes so that we can, say, change the MallardDuck's flying behavior at runtime. Given these goals, let's look at our second design principle: Program to an interface not an implementation.
We'll use an interface to represent each behavior—for instance, FlyBehavior and QuackBehavior — and each implementation of a behavior will implement one of those interfaces. So this time it won't be the Duck classes that will implement the flying and quacking interfaces. Instead, we'll make a set of classes whose entire reason for living is to represent a behavior (for example, "squeaking"), and it's the behavior class, rather than the Duck class, that will implement the behavior interface. This is in contrast to the way we were doing things before, where a behavior either came from a concrete implementation in the superclass Duck, or by providing a specialized implementation in the subclass itself. In both cases we were relying on an implementation. We were locked into using that specific implementation and there was no room for changing out the behavior (other than writing more code). With our new design, the Duck subclasses will use a behavior represented by an interface (FlyBehavior and QuackBehavior), so that the actual implementation of the behavior (in other words, the specific concrete behavior coded in the class that implements the FlyBehavior or QuackBehavior) won't be locked into the Duck subclass.
Here we have two interfaces along with the corresponding classes that implement each concrete behavior:
We have an interface that all flying classes implement. All new flaying classes just need to implement fly method.
Same thing here for the quack behavior; we have an interface that just includes a quack() method that needs to be implemented.
So we get the benefit of REUSE without all the baggage that comes along with inheritance.
With this design, other types of objects can reuse our fly and quack behaviors because these behaviors are no longer hidden away in our Duck classes!
And we can add new behaviors without modifying any of our existing behavior classes or touching any of the Duck classes that use flying behaviors.
"Program to an interface" really means "Program to a supertype." The word interface is overloaded here. There's the concept of interface, but there's also the Java construct interface. You can program to an interface, without having to actually use a Java interface. The point is to exploit polymorphism by programming to a supertype so that the actual runtime object isn't locked into the code. And we could rephrase "program to a supertype" as "the declared type of the variables should be a supertype, usually an abstract class or interface, so that the objects assigned to those variables can be of any concrete implementation of the supertype, which means the class declaring them doesn't have to know about the actual object types!"
This is probably old news to you, but just to make sure we're all saying the same thing here's a simple example of using a polymorphic type—imagine an abstract class Animal, with two concrete implementations, Dog and Cat.
Programming to an implementation would be:
Dog d = new Dog(); d.bark();
Declaring the object d as type of a concrete implementation of Animal (Dog class here) forces us to code to a concrete implementation.
But Programming to an interface/supertype would be:
Animal animal = new Dog(); animal.makeSound();
We know it is a dog, but now we can use the animal reference polymorphically.
Even better, rather than hard-coding the instantiation of the subtype (like new Dog()) into the code, assign the concrete implementation object at runtime:
animal = getAnimal(); animal.makeSound();
We don't know WHAT the actual animal subtype is… all we care about is that it knows how to respond to makeSound().
Integrating the Duck Behavior
The key is that a Duck will now delegate its flying and quacking behavior, instead of using quacking and flying methods defined in the Duck class (or subclass).
Here's how:
1- First we'll add two instance variables to the Duck class called flyBehavior and quackBehavior, that are declared as the interface type (not a concrete class implementation type). Each duck object will set these variables polymorphically to reference the specific behavior type it would like at runtime (FlyWithWings, Squeak, etc.).
We'll also remove the fly() and quack() methods from the Duck class (and any subclasses) because we've moved this behavior out into the FlyBehavior and QuackBehavior classes.
We'll replace fly() and quack() in the Duck class with two similar methods, called performFly() and performQuack(); you'll see how they work next.
The behavior variables are declared as the behavior INTERFACE type and hold a reference to a specific behavior at runtime.
2-Now implement performQuack():
Public class Duck { //Each duck will have this QuackBehavior quackBehavior; public void performQuack() { // Rather than handling the quack behavior itself, the Duck object //delegates that behavior to the object referenced by quackBehavior quackBehavior.quack(); } }
Pretty simple, huh? To perform the quack, a Duck just allows the object that is referenced by quackBehavior to quack for it. In this part of the code we don't care what kind of object it is, all we care about is that it knows how to quack()!
More Integration…
3-Okay, time to worry about how the flyBehavior and quackBehavior instance variables are set. Let's take a look at the MallardDuck class:
public class MallardDuck extends Duck { public MallardDuck() { quackBehavior = new Quack(); flyBehavior = new FlyWithWings(); } public void display() { System.out.println("I'm a mallard duck"); } }
So MallardDuck's quack is a real live duck quack, not a squeak and not a mute quack. So what happens here? When a MallardDuck is instantiated, its constructor initializes the MallardDuck's inherited quackBehavior instance variable to a new instance of type Quack (a QuackBehavior concrete implementation class). And the same is true for the duck's flying behavior—the MallardDuck's constructor initializes the flyBehavior instance variable with an instance of type FlyWithWings (a FlyBehavior concrete implementation class).
"Wait a second, didn't you say we should NOT program to an implementation? But what are we doing in that constructor? Were making a 0 new instance of a concrete Quack implementation class!"
Good catch, that's exactly what we're doing.. for now. Later we'll have more patterns in our toolbox that can help us fix it. Still, notice that while we are setting the behaviors to concrete classes (by instantiating a behavior class like Quack or FlyWithWings and assigning it to our behavior reference variable), we could easily, change that at runtime.
So, we still have a lot of flexibility here, but we're doing a poor job of initializing the instance variables in a flexible way. But think about it, since the quackBehavior instance variable is an interface type, we could (through the magic of polymorphism) dynamically assign a different QuackBehavior implementation class at runtime. Take a moment and think about how you would implement a duck so that its behavior could change at runtime.
Setting behavior dynamically
What a shame to have all this dynamic talent built into our ducks and not be using it! Imagine you want to set the duck's behavior type through a setter method on the duck subclass, rather than by instantiating it in the duck's constructor.
1- Add two methods to the Duck class to set behaviors like setFlyBehavior(FlyBehavior fb) and setQuackBehavior(QuackBehavior qb)
2- Think that we need a new duck type named ModelDuck which has no ability to fly itself till we add a rocket powered system onto it.
public class ModelDuck extends Duck { public ModelDuck() { flyBehavior = new FlyNoWay(); quackBehavior = new Quack(); } public void display() { System.out.println("I'm a model duck"); } }
3- Make a new FlyBhavior Type to support our rocket powered duck
public class FlyRocketPowered implements FlyBehavior { public void fly() { System.out.println("I'm flying with a rocket"); } }
4- Now we are able to give any duck this new ability on the run:
Duck model = new ModelDuck(); model.performFly(); model.setFlyBehavior(new FlyRocketPowered()); model.performFly();
To change the duck's behavior at runtime just call the duck's setter method for that behavior.
The Big Picture on encapsulated behaviors
Okay, now that we've done the deep dive on the duck simulator design, it's time to come back up for air and take a look at the big picture. Below is the entire reworked class structure. We have everything you'd expect: ducks extending Duck, fly behaviors implementing FlyBehavior and quack behaviors implementing QuackBehavior. Notice also that we've started to describe things a little differently. Instead of thinking of the duck behaviors as a set of behaviors, we'll start thinking of them as a family of algorithms. Think about it: in the SimUDuck design, the algorithms represent things a duck would do (different ways of quacking or flying), but we could just as easily use the same techniques for a set of classes that implement the ways to compute state sales tax by different states. Pay careful attention to the relationships between the classes.
HAS-A can be better than IS-A
The HAS-A relationship is an interesting one: each duck has a FlyBehavior and a QuackBehavior to which it delegates flying and quacking. When you put two classes together like this you're using composition. Instead of inheriting their behavior, the ducks get their behavior by being composed with the right behavior object. This is an important technique; in fact, we've been using our third design principle:
Favor composition over inheritance.
As you've seen, creating systems using composition gives you a lot more flexibility. Not only does it let you encapsulate a family of algorithms into their own set of classes, but it also lets you change behavior at runtime as long as the object you're composing with implements the correct behavior interface.
Composition is used in many design patterns and you'll see a lot more about its advantages and disadvantages in design patterns.
So we have implemented our very own STRATEGY pattern. That's right, you used the Strategy Pattern to rework the SimUDuck app. Thanks to this pattern, the simulator is ready for any changes that will surely needed.
Now that we've made you take the long road to apply it, here's the formal definition of this pattern:
The Strategy Pattern defines a family of algorithms, encapsulates each one, and makes them interchangeable. Strategy lets the algorithm vary independently from clients that use it.
