KOSO Kent Introl to be exclusive supplier for Johan Castberg
Specialist valve manufacturer KOSO Kent Introl has secured an exclusive contract to supply choke and control valves to the Statoil Johan Castberg project in Norway. The company is owned by Japans Nihon KOSO group and is based in Brighouse, West Yorkshire, where they manufacture, test, repair and service a wide range of process valves.
Johan Castberg will be the latest of many contracts they have carried out for Aker Solutions. These include the successful Statoil Johan Sverdrup project, which was also located in Norway. The two contracts form part of a wider Frame Agreement between KOSO Kent Introl and Statoil, which will see them supplying Statoil with valves until 2020, with options to extend the agreement through to 2026.
The Statoil Johan Castberg project
The project will consist of a large FPSO (floating production, storage and offloading) vessel. It will be located approximately 240km north-west of Hammerfest at the northern tip of Norway, where the water depth is around 360-390 metres. A Final Investment Decision is expected in late 2017, which should mean that the valves will be manufactured and supplied throughout 2018 and 2019.
KOSO Kent Introl will again be supported locally throughout the contract and beyond by its appointed representatives in Norway. OME Projects will manage documentation submittals and approval status with the project whilst OME Services provide a vital interface between client and manufacturer during commissioning and operation, and can deliver a fast in-country service capability to meet both scheduled and emergency requirements.
Stuart Billingham, Sales Director of KOSO Kent Introl comments:
KOSO Kent Introl are delighted to secure a further contract with Aker Solutions following the successful execution of the Statoil Johan Sverdrup contract, and other recent deliveries to modification projects. In total KOSO Kent Introl have delivered over 485 valves to Sverdrup during 2016/17 working to the site-needdates throughout and submitting critical interface information to the client within the required timeframes.
This client has repeatedly rated KOSO Kent Introl at 90%-95% in its Supplier Performance Evaluations during the past three years, considering on-time delivery, quality, HSE statistics and collaboration with the project teams, and we believe it is testament to a strong team effort within our organisation, and our ability to continuously improve our performance, that the client again demonstrates its confidence in KOSO Kent Introl with the award of this prestigious contract.
KOSO Kent Introl goes from strength to strength
These recent contract wins are signs of a growing success story at KOSO Kent Introl. From their base in West Yorkshire, they achieve global reach, thanks in part to their network of agents and their parent company Nihon KOSO group. The relationships give KOSO Kent Introl a base of local partners in all the major Oil & Gas production regions around the globe.
Through these partnerships they can offer local support, fulfil documentation requirements quickly, complete site work on schedule and typically deploy technical and servicing teams within 48 hours to any part of the world.
Closer to home, within the UK they continue to invest in longterm assets to support further growth. In recent years their manufacturing facility has been upgraded to include several new machining centres and overlaying equipment to improve their productivity and reduce costs along with a bespoke tensile and compression testing rig for the subsea market sector.
They also have a dedicated aftermarket facility for valve servicing, repair and overhauls, which has been developed in response to the growing need for Oil & Gas companies to maintain and extend the service life of their assets.

Ina Garten, better known as TV's "Barefoot Contessa," will be devoting time over the stove in her new Park Avenue pied--terre, which she and her husband, Jeffrey, recently purchased for $4.65 million, the New York Observer reports.
The two-bedroom, three-bathroom home at 62nd Street and Park was formerly owned by Nancy Novogrod, former editor of Travel + Leisure magazine, the Observer says. When it was up for sale, the unit on the Upper East Side was described as an "extraordinarily handsome, gracious pre-war home with a tranquil feel."
Garten's new city digs measure in at 2,350 square feet and boast eastern and southern exposures. The prewar co-op also features 10-foot ceilings, three fireplaces, and an enormous living room with four large windows.
Most important, the recently renovated kitchen features a six-burner range and stone-topped center island. There's also a separate "dining gallery," apropos for food royalty who's used to preparing and eating feasts with her hubby in their East Hampton home, where her popular Food Network cooking show is filmed.

There are so many reasons to celebrate the women in your life – least of which is the fact that without a Mother you wouldn't even be here! Every year on March 8th, women around the world are honoured with the recognition they so deserve and this year may be the most important year to show your support and appreciation.
On January 21, 2017, millions of women, men and children all over the world marched to demand equality for their sisters, daughters, mothers and friends. They (we) took a stand against the the oppression that has dogged us for centuries. You'd think, by now – after decades of the Women's Movement- that this would be a redundant cause. Now, more than ever, the equal rights of women are relevant, current and necessary. A certain presidential figure and his party have brought this issue of human rights to the center of attention and it will not be ignored.
So, without getting too political (!!!) I'd like to show my support for women around the world and their contributions to our society. Mothers, scientists, doctors, educators, farmers, lawyers, presidential candidates, designers, engineers, artists; we wouldn't be here without you!
The traditional flower that celebrates Women's Day is Mimosa. Known for it's bright yellow, fuzzy blossoms it is a harbinger of spring in Europe and around the globe. It is a symbol of respect and solidarity and is given to and by women to honour the day.
Gift the women in your life with a lovely bouquet of Mimosa to brighten their day!
Happy International Women's Day!

I have following situation - I am pasing user info object from Controller to View. It contains GUID UserID, which i dont want to be seen on page.
So I removed every Html.LabelFor(model => model.UserID), Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.UserID) etc... from generated View source.
And because of this when Html.BeginForm() returns that object back to Controller all values is there but UserID is lost??
If I leave Html.LabelFor(model => model.UserID), Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.UserID) etc.. in View everything is fine.
But I dont want to show UserID?
Where is the problem here?
Hello all! I'm in a situation where I need to pass some information (state) to a base controller from which all of my controllers derive. In my global.asax, I'm calling a web service to get some state about the user. This state applies to every page in my web app, so the base controller needs to know about it. The state consists of about 4 fields. Is there a standard way to do this?
I'm using ASP.NET MVC 2.
Thanks in advance for your time!
I have a problem with getting a parameter in my controller.
My url is: http://localhost:portnr/News/Details/43
My Global.asax:
null, // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{newsid}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "News", action = "Details", newsid = "" } // Parameter defaults
My controller code:
public class NewsController : Controller
public ActionResult Details(int? newsid)
//some code
My controller is never getting the value out the url, how can i fix it ?I don't want to use: /Details?newsid=43
Hello all. I am not extremely familiar with web programming and I have reached the point that I am going to start pulling my hair out on this. Most of my programming is in windows.
History: One of our clients hired a company to handle orders for them and it is now my job to set up a web service that will receive a cXML file from them with the order information in it. I created a web service which resides on a Windows 2003 Server using IIS 6. I created an application to send the file to the web service and my problem now is I keep getting access denied when the web service tries to write the file to the hdd. The web service runs as the default IUSR_computername account with Enable anonymous access checked. In one of my troubleshooting attempts I gave the IUSR_.... account full permissions to the folder that the files are to be saved to and this still resulted in access denied when writing the file. The next step I took was looking on the internet to find out how to pass the credentials to the web service and I failed miserably at that also so my question is how do I pass the credentials to the web service so it can write the file to disc?
Here is the web service code. I am using VB.Net 2008 for the application and used VB.Net 2010 for the web service. (two seperate computers)
Imports System.WebImports System.Web.S
I have a batch process set up, which executes fine as long as the name of the file is built in. My Execute Process task in SSIS also runs this batch file with succes.
I would like to pass the name of the file as a parameter from the Task (SSIS) to this batch file. Looks like I am doing something wrong because it is failing.
This is the batch file:
cd \Program Files\WS_FTP Pro\
wsftppro -s "local:D:\Folder1\Folder2\%1" -d HDMS:/To_HDMS/
--- The %1 is the parameter
The argument that I am passing in is in the 'StandardInputVariable'
Would really really appreciate some help! Thanks so much!
Is there a way we can pass a parameter to the UDCX data connection? I believe no. So, what could be the workaround?
I have a requirement where I need to pass some value in query and get the record from database and need to show up on infopath form.
So, to get that I have to pass parameter to the sql query. I believe below are the possible implementations.
1. Write ADO.NET logic to get the data from database and bind it to form fields.
2. Add a custom web service and write the queries logic in it and use it.
Are there any simple and better ways to do this? I just need to pass an integer to sql server and get the record matched to that number.
Please let me know the ways.

As a way to advertise your website and/or business effectively, you have to have the appropriate information to assist you on the way. Without the right info, you'll be swinging blindly in the most competitive marketplace on the planet. Look at the article below and find out about many ways you may use for optimizing your internet site.
Make use of the right keywords. By researching the best keywords to work with, you will ensure that search engines like google rank you for your subject you want to be ranked for. Do niche research first to make sure you are employing keywords that people actually hunt for don't pass by your own guesses.
When optimizing a site for search engines like yahoo will not forget about the phrasing from the links involving the site's internal pages. Search engine listings analyze these links too internet marketing tools, and keywords that show up in links receive greater weight than keywords from the plain content of any particular page. Tweaking your links to deal with the keywords you want to center on may have a big effect.
Check each page of your own website and be sure it comes with a META description. If it doesn't, then you will want to edit the page and add one. The description often appears in search engines, so use action statements that grab the searcher's attention. This really is an effective destination to use strong keywords. Check existing META descriptions and improve them as needed. Limit the description to 155 characters.
If possible keep CSS and JavaScript in separate files on the web sever. Using this method search engine listings can find and index the material on your own HTML website pages faster. Also, having more content than code on a webpage increases a page's rank in search results.
Give each page on your website an alternative title, to be able to have more attention from search engines like google. Vary your use of keywords and key phrases within the titles. Make certain not to use greater than 65 to 70 characters in each title and include the most crucial words, at the start of the title.
One thing in order to avoid when confronted with search engine optimization is block quotes. Although it hasn't been officially proven, it is actually widely thought that most search engines ignore any text a part of block quote tags. Consequently any tags in block quotes will not be contained in search results.
The breadcrumb link trail for your webpages - the hierarchical line that shows in which a particular page can be found (i.e. main>>sales>>bags>>Brand) - can be included in the page's listing on the major search engines results pages. You will have to find out the latest coding methods, like RDFa and micro-data, to produce these breadcrumbs appear. It could be worth the cost to include such functionality to the internet search engine listings.
If you wish individuals to find your pages on the internet, then it is absolutely vital that you optimize your pages for search engines. In 2008, Google revealed it had been indexing approximately one trillion unique URLs. With this particular volume of competition for viewers, the possibility that people will opt to view your page over others is slim to none if you do not put work into optimizing your site.
As you've learned, anyone who would like to earn money online has to optimize their site for search engines. The recommendations listed here can give you the various tools you should optimize your site. A much better website will receive more traffic and generate more money to suit your needs.

Don't miss the Official Yacht Race Trophy Presentations on the GPC Marina Main Stage from 5pm on Easter Sunday!
One of Australia's most significant and largest yacht race's,
the QantasLink Brisbane to Gladstone Yacht Race, enters its milestone 70th year
in 2018. This iconic Queensland sporting event is an Australian Easter Weekend
tradition with entrants from all around Australia and internationally annually
setting sail from Moreton Bay on Good Friday.
The Brisbane to Gladstone has a rich history steeped in
tradition that extends all the way back to its inaugural race held during
Easter 1949. The first race featured just seven vessels, two of which had
radios while the other five were supplied with pigeons from Brisbane's Homing
Pigeon Club to assist with position reporting. Birds were released twice a day.
The event's first ever winner was Doug Perrins on the bow of
Hoana with an elapsed time of 47hrs 08mins 25sec – a time that stood until
Since then, the Brisbane to Gladstone Yacht Race has seen its
popularity and prestige grow with hundreds of vessels competing for honours
each year. The largest ever fleet was registered in 1998 for the Golden
Anniversary of the race with 226 vessels and 1356 men, women and children
setting sail.
In 2004, 'Skandia' skippered by Grant Wharington set a new race
record with a course time of 20hrs 24mins 50secs and an average speed of 15.09
knots. The record stands to this day despite the efforts of numerous attempts
by more advanced and faster boats; to date the weather has just not been on
their side. This year, local favourite
'Black Jack' will once again attempt to beat the record. The crew have come
close before, but this year bring their new 100-foot super maxi that has been
optimised for the expected race conditions.
In addition to the Grand Prix boats at the front of the fleet,
there will also be a classic yacht contingent celebrating the 70th anniversary.
Gladstone boat' Wistari' will be reaching her own historic milestone of 50
appearances in the Queensland race whilst the current record holder for the most
races entered, 'Laurabada', will maintain her status with her 51st start.
With a fleet of up to 70 yachts expected, the organisers,
Queensland Cruising Yacht Club, will be live streaming the start of the Race
via the race website www.brisbanetogladstone.com and Facebook. Spectators can
enjoy the festival whilst also getting a close-up view of the action on the
water brought to their device live and free from six separate cameras, drones
and a professional commentary team.
Will this be the year the race record falls?

Pages: 413
Original publication date: 1953
My edition: 1999 (Persephone)
Why I decided to read: Intriguing plot; and I've read and enjoyed another one of Dorothy Whipple's books
How I acquired my copy: Persephone bookshop, September 2009
Dorothy Whipple's Someone at a Distance is a very complicated novel to write about. It's the story of the Norths, a suburban couple with two teenage children. Avery North's aging mother engages a young Frenchwoman as her companion, and he develops an attachment to her that develops into an affair and later leads to divorce from his wife Ellen. This novel is a stunning book about the wide-ranging effects an affair can have on several families.
Dorothy Whipple's language is very simple. Her prose is uncomplicated, yet there's a lot of meaning behind it. Her upper-middle-class English characters are all absorbed in their own mundane lives, until the arrival of Louise literally shakes them all up. Louise is obviously not meant to be a sympathetic character (unlike Ruth in Susan Glaspell's Fidelity); and at times she devolves into the stereotypical "other woman." Much more preferable is Ellen, the sensible English housewife who finds her life shattered during the after the divorce.
It's a sad subject, yet there are some truly funny moments; the surly Miss Daley going postal on Louise is an example that comes to mind. So in the end, each of the characters get what they deserve—even Avery, towards whom I feel a bit ambivalent. I feel as though he simply sat back and let things happen to him, rather than be an active member of the cast of characters.
It's interesting that I've chosen to read this book now, so shortly after reading another Persephone title, Fidelity—it's the story of an extramarital affair as told from the conventional point of view. Despite my feelings towards Avery and Louise, I though many of the other characters were well-drawn. Whipple's description of the angst teenage Anne goes through is very real, as are the difficulties that Ellen must feel as she prepares for a life alone. After all, she's been married for twenty years, and she's never had a job or had to pay her own bills; how will she cope? It's funny, then, how Ellen ultimately finds solace in a group of elderly ladies. Like the other Whipple novel I've read, The Priory, this is not a novel in which much "happens," but it's a powerfully emotional novel. Whipple's prose is simple, as I've said, but her way with words is absolutely stellar. She really knew how to play on her readers' emotions, so that you feel invested in the lives of her characters.
This is Persephone no. 3. Endpaper below:

5 ways to extend the hair clean
Any, even the most luxurious styling may look unpresentable, if the hair had lost its freshness. How to wash your hair less often and look at this perfectly – let's see.
1- When choosing a shampoo focuses not on the hair type and the type of scalp. To extend the cleanliness of locks, you should choose the means for bold type.
2- Balm apply only to the hair ends, otherwise the roots will become more bold, and the hair will quickly lose volume.
3- Regularly clean the scalp with special scrubs – so you get rid of dead cells and residues of styling tools.
4- Try to minimize the use of styling. They are heavier hair and deprive them of their natural shine. Choosing styling products, make sure they do not contain silicones that tend to accumulate on the scalp and hair condition to worsen.
5- If the locks have lost their freshness by the end of the day, you can use a dry shampoo or a special powder for hair. In the first case you get rid of fat on the hair roots, in the second – will attach the required volume of the hairstyle.
No comments so far.

Ahhhh... it rained. And it actually helped instead of making it worse. There's a nice cool breeze coming in the windows and the temperature is a sweet chilly 68°. I'm sleeping tonight!
Coming Up:
Which will be good. Busy day tomorrow, Dr. N, the cardiologist, is in the morning.
We will be talking about meds for the old heart. Most likely Coreg®. I'm a bit worried about side effects. The two big ones being the bronchial spasms and edema.
My lungs aren't bad, but in weather like we've had I do get mild asthma like symptoms. So anything closing up in the bronchial area worries me.
And the other one. I retain water when it's humid out, so anything with that as a side effect is what I will have. There's no doubt about it.
Doc and I will have a chat about all of that. He's really nice and answers all questions. And he listens to the questions first!
After all that fun it'll be blood-work, then off to the grocery store and pharmacy. A long day it will be indeed.
Neopetter News:
Well the Altador Cup has ended and my team came in 10th. A sad display to say the least. We weren't last so that's something I guess. For myself I managed to get to Rank 11. Much better than last years Rank 9. I'm proud.
And I can't wait for the new NeoHomes 2.0. to come out! I'll have to do screenies when it does :)
Here's my Rank 11 Shield :)

Ending online dating europenian dating
03-Apr-2016 03:23
Someone posed this question to me yesterday: Does online dating create more long-lasting relationships than the "real world" does?
I pondered this for a second and decided to do some research. Since it is just about impossible to hold all else equal (the actual people, where they live, age, religion, personality, marriage history, etc.), it is difficult to conclude, One article detailing the results of a 2013 study by researchers at University of Chicago's Department of Psychology and Harvard University's Department of Epidemiology found that online dating leads to higher marriage satisfaction and thereby a lower divorce rate.
Her study extends this investigation by including non-marital relationships in the comparison.
It investigates if the breakup rate of relationships (both marital and non-marital) varies as a result of meeting online versus offline, and if other factors outside of the meeting venue predict relationship dissolution.
(Please take note that neither she nor I use the word "failure" since a marriage or relationship ending can, of course, be the best and only choice for the couple.) Data are used from a nationally representative survey of 4,002 respondents.
(This to me does not sound statistically significant, but perhaps she had her reasons for keeping the sample size smaller.) Her data found that the breakup rates for both marital and non-marital romantic relationships were higher for couples who met online than couples who met offline.
She says not to get bogged down by all of the choices and become too distracted to commit to one person, especially if you're looking for a committed relationship.
The researchers addressed the question of marital satisfaction in a nationally representative sample of 19,131 respondents who got married between 20.
Results indicate that more than one-third of marriages in America now begin online. In addition, the study shows that marriages that started online, when compared with those that began through traditional offline venues, were slightly less likely to result in a marital breakup (separation or divorce) and were associated with slightly higher marital satisfaction among those respondents who remained married.
I think the best outcome of this study was to show that 35% of marriages now begin online. Aditi Paul, a Ph D candidate at Michigan State, did a study this past year claiming quite the opposite, but ultimately differentiating people's outcomes by their intentions.
Her abstract says that previous studies, including the one I mentioned above, have primarily looked at marital relationships.
The lead author, John Cacioppo, says about the results, "It is possible that individuals who met their spouse online may be different in personality, motivation to form a long-term marital relationship, or some other factor," so there may be more here than meets the eye.One rather large caveat with this study is that it was funded by none other than online dating site e Harmony, so I can't say whether or not any bias on that site's part was introduced, but I'm guessing it wasn't ignored, either.

15 Things I Wish I Could Have Told Myself Before Moving Back to the USA/
Quick note - I can't believe it's time for the monthly newsletter already! Sign up here
to receive the edition next week - it's like a virtual coffee date with yours truly with stories and photos from Cambodia not posted on the blog, music and recipes I'm loving lately, links to challenging and encouraging online resources, and more! You can check out last month's newsletter here.
Today I'm posting some amazing advice from Suzanne, one of your fellow blog readers. She and her husband have worked overseas and successfully transitioned back to life in America - something I hope we can do, too! When she sent me this list of tips on surviving the transition back home, I knew it was too good to keep to myself. There will be another post coming soon with the rest of her advice. For now, read on, and connect with Suzanne over on Twitter! - whitney
My husband and I spent almost a decade in the Balkans.
When we returned home, we were surprised to find that we had more culture shock upon our return than during our time overseas.
For one thing, in our mind, things were as we left them 10 years before. We found ourselves at a loss at how to order a simple cup of coffee at Starbucks ("just a small cup of coffee, please!"). We were overwhelmed at the choices of cereal, and everything else for that matter. We held hands and tried to stick to the list while in the local Mega Stuff-Mart.
One of our favorite moments is when my husband deposited me at a bench with our mega-mound of duffle bags while he secured our rental car. When he returned he found me mesmerized by a gleaming shiny clean city bus.
I was in awe!
He said, "Oh honey, you've been gone too long."
It was just so clean!
Even the tires were shiny. No belching black fumes pouring out either!
Below are a few things I would have told myself when we moved back to the USA if I could have.
Not sure I would have listened. But here it is anyway. I hope it helps you. I realize everyone's experiences are so different. But maybe you can glean a few ideas from it.
Ultimately, after time abroad in any country, you are changed.
You appreciate things in a new way (like a shiny clean city bus), and you aren't so excited about other things. Just remember that it is part of God's design for you. Each of us has a different path to walk on in life. Some of your dearest friends and family may be on a path that never takes them far from home.
Either way, we are all called to live by faith and to glorify God with who we are and what He has given us.
15 Things I Wish I Could Have Told Myself
Before Moving Back to the USA
1. Savor your last days in the country you are in.
Sometimes in the business of preparing for departure and looking forward to what you have missed at home, you don't take time to enjoy where you are. One day, you will miss these days.
2. Make sure you take time to properly say goodbye.
Make a list of those you want to spend time with and do it. Don't forget to include those folks you may not know so well but you do see upon occasion (ie. the waitress at the café who always wants to hold your baby).
3. Take a break before heading home.
I have never done this…but if I could have I made myself done this, I would. In an ideal world, take a mini-vacation a few weeks before you plan to leave. This will help you not be dog tired and totally spent when you arrive.
4. Be prepared for PTSD moments.
Not to make light of those who have PTSD from truly tragic experiences, but living in a culture/environment so different from your own can create these feelings when you return. They seem to rise up in weird moments….
- When I was taking a shower at home I remember hurrying up just in case the water ran out!
- When blow-drying my hair or cooking a casserole, I remember thinking I sure hope the power doesn't go out.
- When my normally mild-mannered diplomatic husband began to flash his lights and honk his horn at a (distracted) woman driving a station wagon with 2 kids and said, "You would NEVER survive overseas!!!!" (This resulted from a decade of intense defensive driving). We laugh about it now, but at the time he had those some stressors of high blood pressure, gripping the steering wheel and being prepared for crazy drivers just like he as back overseas.
Just looking at this photo makes me feel overwhelmed! (whitney)
5. Beware of "Stuff-Mart"
At first we felt like we needed so many things. We also had a decade of buying something on the spot if you saw it because you may never see it again. This is not the case at home.
Learn to make a list and to just say no!
6. Rent- don't buy
I would recommend this for a couple of years, because the chances are great that you will get the desire to go overseas again. If you have a mortgage this becomes a very tough decision.
7. Look to God for refreshing
Every time we came home, we really wanted a low key vacation at the beach to just stare off into the sunset and let the waves wash over us. This never has happened.
One time when Henry arrived one day before our daughter was born, and I had moved accommodations the week before. I remember wishing we could take a beach vacation as a time of refreshing. I really felt impressed that
"times of refreshing come from the presence of the Lord."
Spend that time with God and He will refresh you even if the circumstances may feel everything but peaceful.
8. Love on family
Make memories with your loved ones back home. Spend the quality time with those you love.
9. Wherever you are, be all there
I love this quote by Jim Elliot. We have tried to do this wherever we are. Somehow this is easy to do overseas in a foreign land and harder to do at home. But the same things apply…learn the language, get a local paper, get involved, make friends, and plant something.
10. Have technology-free days
We had the biggest shock because while we were gone, everyone in America became addicted to technology. It was not that way when we left. When we returned home, people held their devices like an addict holds a pack of cigarettes. They had trouble not looking at it when you were with them.
This is still something we fight ourselves and are making an effort not to get sucked in. One idea is to have at least one day (Sunday is good), when you do not use any tech devices.
11. Things can seem petty
Resist the urge to compare your home in the USA to where you came from. I can remember returning home from Myanmar and our church was raising money for new seats. Each seat cost as much as a bicycle in Myanmar that the pastors used to reach the villages and share the Gospel. I felt ill at first. I really had to take this to the Lord and get a peace about it. It is not like comparing apples to apples.
12. A word for husbands
As head of the house try to relax about finances and jobs and houses and cars….etc. Be sure to take a break between posts and enjoy the moment. There will be plenty of time to focus on those things in the days ahead. Take a purposeful time off. Trust God for his provision.
13. Write a journal of remembrance
As you remember, post those amazing ways that you saw God while abroad. Write down those funny moments that really don't make sense to anyone who wasn't there. This is a good way to "defrag."
14. Debrief
Spend time with those who have been overseas and have made the change. Most folks have no idea how to relate to your experiences unless they have been in a similar situation.
15. Make a mini-photo book as a way to share
I would suggest making a small photo book with 30-50 pictures that tell your story in a manageable way. Otherwise it can be overwhelming to most folks.
Suzanne, thanks so much for sharing your wise advice!
If you've spent time overseas, what are some ways you prepared for a healthy transition? Is there anything you regret doing or not doing? Please share in the comments! And don't forget to sign up for the monthly newsletter, coming out next week!

New Fairchild Theatre showcases talent
The intimate setting of Fairchild Theatre on Saturday night highlighted the diverse selection of performances displayed by the MSU College of Music's production of "A Fairchild Fanfare."
According to David Rayl, MSU professor of music and director of choral programs , this event was intended to serve as a proper dedication concert for the newly renovated Fairchild Theatre that was completed last fall.
As a multi-use facility for the College of Music, Rayl said this concert was designed to showcase all of the musical groups that utilize this space for their concerts and other performances throughout the year.
Sponsored by President Lou Anna K. Simon and her husband Roy Simon, this event consisted of both faculty members and student performers who represented the unique style of music that the audience could expect to hear at each type of concert.
"For people who are curious about what kinds of concerts the College of Music produces, this event is a great way to hear a little bit of everything," Rayl said.
The showcase opened with the University Chorale and included three performances from faculty members including a viola and cello duet, a piano soloist, and a woodwind quintet.
The concert also showcased the musical abilities of many students in two opera performances and the MSU Jazz Faculty and Student Septet that concluded the show.
First year graduate student Schyler Sheltrown performed in an opera piece with five other students and said she was thrilled to be part of an event that exposes such a wide spectrum of music to the audience.
"It's a really great experience to get a taste of all the different kinds of music and genres that classical music encompasses," Sheltrown said.
In addition to the variety of music, Sheltrown said the renovation of Fairchild Theatre has significantly transformed the quality and atmosphere of the performances. Due to the reconstruction of the acoustics, the sound can clearly project into the audience and accommodate musical ensembles of all different sizes.
Music education junior Andrew Keiser said he enjoyed hearing some of his professors perform, while also supporting the other students at such a diverse hall.
"You saw a little bit of everything, and it was a great event for every part of the College of Music to be represented," Keiser said.

Cat commitment
With cats now living on average 16 years, taking on a cat is a long-term commitment. Therefore when considering a cat as a pet, as a responsible pet owner you need to consider your current lifestyle and commitments. We would also recommend you discuss this important decision with the entire family - here are some things you will need to consider:
Young kittens need a home with an owner who is there most of the day. They need regular play sessions and lots of socialisation. Ensure your kitten has lots of pleasurable experiences whilst they are young to help them become a well rounded adult who is able to cope with different challenges in the future.
Young kittens should not be left for longer periods than 4-5 hours; due to the fact they need regular meals throughout the day and close monitoring. If you are not able to feed your kitten 3-4 meals per day, evenly spread out we would suggest you rehome an older cat.
Most adult cats can be left alone for a working day quite happily, although exceptions do occur.
It is important to allow your cat access to the outside throughout the day so they can exhibit natural behaviour which may include hunting prey. As a general rule Wood Green does not advise keepings cats as purely indoor pets, they should have the choice to go outside and avoid developing frustration issues. Again exceptions to this do occur.
If you work very long hours and are out of the house often it may not be suitable to own any type of cat. Most cats require regular attention even if they have other animals for company.
If you travel or are away a lot, who will care for your pet in your absence?

Sending money directly to individuals has emerged as a new model of giving. Cash transfers ensure funds reach the recipients, while cutting corruption and improving transparency. They promote financial inclusion, beneficiaries' ownership of development policies, and alignment between programmes and accountability.
However, cash transfers still only represent 6% of total humanitarian spending. We aim to leverage the transformative potential of cash transfers to support development. We believe that cash transfers can be a trustworthy and accountable way to offer autonomy to poor people, giving them a choice over their priorities and needs.
With mounting issues including that of worldwide hunger, food waste, and the globalised and environmentally degrading nature of mainstream food production, disruptive urban agriculture can offer a sustainable alternative.
Our goal is to disrupt the current food system and use innovation in urban agriculture in order to create a more sustainable, fair and environmentally friendly food system. Hunger should no longer be an issue, nor should be food overproduced or wasted.
We want to see a future in which some of the world's most vulnerable communities have an improved quality of life and access to regular, nutritious and adequate food supplies.
Total remittances in 2014 reached $583 billion, compared to $135.2 billion Official Development Assistance (ODA) that year. They represent money sent by migrants to support recipients in meeting basic needs. There is a good correlation between remittances and improved health, nutrition and education.
However, there are several barriers to developing countries making the most from remittances. Among these are transaction costs, lack of competition among money transfer operators and an increase in flow of remittances through informal channels. We want to increase the potential of remittances to achieve equality, financial inclusion and social development.
How can we ensure they deliver similar benefits to poor, marginalised communities in the developing world?
Access to the internet, in particular through smartphones, is now ubiquitous – even in the poorest countries, smartphones and internet cafés are now common.
But many of the most useful services – including e-commerce, sharing economy platforms and online access to public services – are tailored to the needs of rich countries.
In the developing world, they are limited or non-existent. Our vision is to bring tailored, relevant online services to these newly connected communities, so they benefit from the communications revolution.

When Do You Need An Insurance Attorney?
Do you want to file a claim for advantages, regardless of what type of policy you own, and your insurance company has refused to acknowledge, processing or investigating your coverage, then it is time to contact an insurance attorney.
Unlike other industries in the states, the insurance industry is certainly not governed by any centralized, federal body of legislation to modify its practices. Thus, there is no federal agency in which you can file a case that a policy provider delays, denies or deliberately mishandles a legitimate claim that you've submitted for coverage under the provisions of your respective insurance plan. In this case attorneys of http://www.hightowerlaw.net/ can help you.
A review of your policy may supply you with the leverage to embolden your efforts and satisfy the insurance company head on. However, without a full and comprehensive idea of your legal rights as any consumer, you may still finish up being muscled or pressured into settling for a disbursement that is less versus damages of your claim, or less than the volume of benefits that you are entitled to receive relative to the provisions of your policy.
One of the crucial characteristics of an insurance plan that is sometimes unknown as well as overlooked by policyholders is the policy itself is a legitimate and binding contract between you as well as the insurance company.
So, if you're facing an insurance dilemma, and feel that your claim has been wrongfully overdue or denied then you should consult an insurance lawyer.

ProblemWe have had this problem statement at hand which requires the field engineer to validate that any engineered solution, when deployed at a customer site, is running the supported versions of the firmware and driver.
BackgroundWell, we already have Pester tests written and placed inside a validation kit which tests whether a deployment is as per the practices outlined in our deployment guide.
So this was only natural to add the driver version validation under this kit (firmware validation in the future release).
We use Pester (PowerShell unit testing framework) for the Infrastructure/Ops validation and PSRemotely to target all the nodes in our solution for these tests. So the code samples in the post correspond to that.

Here are some music and percussion activities you might like to try with your class.
Rhythm Work
- Repeatedly count out aloud together 1, 2, 3, 4, – 1, 2, 3, 4, – 1, 2, 3, 4, – 1, 2, 3, 4
- Continue to count out aloud, only this time add a single clap to each number that's called. The children can progress to counting in their minds whilst making the rhythm beats only.
- 1, 2 and 3 is represented with a single beat and the 4th beat can be given x2 quick beats continuing and expanding. The first count has x2 quick beats while 2, 3, and 4 has a single beat.
A Stormy Beginning
Recordings of natural sounds can add a sensory dimension to studying the rainforest. A tropical thunderstorm is a particularly good ice-breaking activity or the end to a day of rainforest activities. There is a wide selection of environmental-type tape recordings on the market today that you may wish to purchase, but the following activity is a way that you and your students can create your own indoor thunderstorm.
Contrary to popular belief, it doesn't rain constantly in the rain forest. Some tropical areas have distinct wet and dry seasons, while in others rainfall is more even year round.
Rainstorms often follow a daily pattern. After the cool hours of early dawn, the air starts to heat up rapidly. Thunderstorms grow during the heat of late afternoon.
When the storm breaks, very heavy rains drench the landscape. A few minutes later, the sun may be shining brightly.
Have students sit cross-legged in a circle or semi-circle. Have them imagine that the air is becoming quite humid and still. Start by quietly rubbing your palms together, making a soft rustling sound. Begin on one side of the group, make eye contact with the students one by one, and have them imitate the action. When everyone is rubbing his or her palms, begin snapping your fingers. Again, begin at one side of the group, cueing people into action one by one. Have the action sweep over the group in a wave. Follow finger snapping by patting your hands on your legs and finally by stamping your feet.
As the storm subsides go through the first three steps in reverse order, patting legs, snapping fingers, rubbing palms. Emphasize that it is now quite cool and that the storm you just created is part of a daily cycle in many forests.

These are the latter.
Sure, I've done a lot of different types of paid work. But that doesn't mean I'm all about the Benjamins. I also write articles, stories, and essays for myself--because it helps keep me sane. In addition to my personal writing, I manage a Medium publication called The Bigger Picture and write/produce YouTube videos with my brother and friends. Money is nice, sure, but it's not going to make me happy.
The Bigger Picture is a Medium publication I have created with fellow writer and friend, Jenna Rutsky. We were both previously writing on our own, but we realized we have similar writing styles and usually cover similar topics. So, we've decided to combine our more introspective content into a collection of musings and stories to expand both of our audiences.
In our articles, we take topics that are easy to relate to, but we provide our own unique perspectives. The challenge in writing each piece is then taking that perspective and relating it back to our audience. This is why we describe our collection as Oddly specific. Universally applicable. We've begun working with other writers as well, so I try to publish content that is resonant, thoughtful, and/or downright hysterical.
I encourage you to see for yourself. It's wonderful.
My brother and I created In Case of Entertainment as a YouTube channel when I was in college and he was still in high school. We used it simply as an outlet for our creative video endeavors, mostly humorous sketches and spoofs. Some friends wanted to get involved, so we've been able to produce more quality content--for example, our mockumentary series Untold Stories.
We plan to continue our mockumentary-style series in the future, as well as pursue some more serious short films. Both my brother and I have developed full scripts for shorts, so we look forward to producing those and sharing them sometime soon.
Along with my friend Gret, I've launched a weekly current events podcast that aims to explore trending topics, political happenings, and social issues from a bipartisan lens. By dissecting stories from both sides, we hope to pave the way for patient, respectful discussion--and we're proud to be pioneering the bipartisan movement toward a more open-minded future.

Story originally published in 2017 edition of Quiver yearbook.
There are a myriad of ways to get involved and keep in touch with the community by participating and volunteering through school clubs and school mandated events.
"I joined N-teens in eighth grade because I had been volunteering for a while, and I joined the club. I do a lot of my volunteering through N-teens and I do some outside of N-teens. This year I am introducing new volunteer opportunities in hospitals and Alsip Nursery. I volunteer at fun fairs at elementary schools, craft fairs, walks, non-profit organizations, the hospital and the library. I get to meet a lot of people and hear about their experiences," Anna Hallowell (12) said.
Events including Angel Tree and the food drive, are annual events held through the school that provide possibilities to give back.
"For the Angel Tree, I made the list of everyone to break off into groups for each category for what child they had, how much money they had and made sure everything ran smoothly. It was nice to come back and know that you are helping somebody that does not have as much around Christmas and in general. It just makes you feel good," Morgan Calligan (12) said.
For those who want to devote their time and energy outside of school, there are a plethora of chances to give back to the community around the Reigion.
"I volunteer at Faith Church in Dyer and Faith Students, [a program dealing] with the middle schoolers, on Wednesday nights. On Saturday nights and Sunday mornings, I volunteer at Faith Kids, which is with second graders. Some of the middle schoolers do not have a safe place to go, so some of them come in on Wednesday nights and have a safe place to be for about three hours. I have gone to the church for my entire life and I grew up with people volunteering for me, and I decided to give back and volunteer for them," Elizabeth Slager (11) said.
Students can visit areas that are less fortunate to help build things, such as houses or playgrounds, that can better the lives of those who live there.
"My favorite volunteer work was going to Gary to help restore a children's playground. The city didn't have enough money to repair it, so my youth group joined with many other youth groups and we worked together to clean up a basketball court and playground," Grace Richardson (10) said.

I am from Canada, married to a Finn and living in Vantaa. As I have posted earlier, I feel very torn between Finland and Canada because they both have positive aspects. In a way I am glad that after living away from my home country for 3 years I can still say it is a great place. A lot of foreigners who now live in Finland much prefer Finland to their home countries.
Canada's climate is better than Finland's - if you are going to be staying in British Columbia or somewhere along the Canada-US border. Go north and you get the same kind of winters as here. It is more multicultural and people are definitley more sociable upon first meeting them. The culture is not exactly the same as in the States, but I think you will enjoy it. Compared to Finland, Canada is dirtier, the infrastructure is not as good, and while going to the doctor or hospital is free, you will need some insurance to help cover full medicine costs, eyeglasses and dentist appointments and treatments. (Your workplace will probalby offer a plan.) So, basically is it socialist, but not as socialist as here in Finland. It is a combination between the capitalism of the US and socialism of Finland.
If you ever end up back in Finland, perhaps a strong social network will help you survive here - it sounds like you were pretty lonely the last time you were here. You know where to find all of us at .

Yes, well, I just got my flat renovation done and a promise of a promotion (which will pass as usual)... yes, there is a saying to be born in Finland is winning a lottery, but the other thing they forget to mention is that you need to win the lotto to be able to afford to live here. Problem is I am a crofter these days with a cottage soon as well, so packing up and leaving would require a lot of organizing how to get the mortgages paid etc. so I think I just have to continue taking anti-freeze - as you said the H12b and gc in the USA is getting too tight.funnyman wrote:yea you are right, arent you waiting for your lottery for usa , how many lotteries you plan to win in one lifetime ( wasnt there one song which mentions being born in finland is like winning a lottery or something)
BTW what you say about being looked upon like "what the hell are you doing here" the Finns do it even for locals you are from a different town you get the cold shoulder. So its not necessarily personal, they do it to everybody. Instead of "welcome" its rather "nice to see you, when are you leaving? " ... + of course the fact no Finn can comprehend why any sane individual would voluntarily choose Finland, you know as Sweden is so much richer, norway has better salaries... etc. Finns have a thing about national insecurity as well.
Anyhow, good luck. the Canadian immigration interview reportedly might be slightly nasty at times.
Cheers, Hank W.

The residence in Glyfada, a suburb of Athens, Greece, is the latter of the two. As you can see in the pictures that are shown, the house contains a large amount of glass, both in thefurniture and in the construction.
