Shahidul Alam is now an asset to promoters of radical Islam
Nitish Baruah
The name Shahidul Alam may not be anymore unknown to a large section of people in the Indian subcontinent, Asia and beyond. This British-Bangladeshi photographer was arrested few months back in Bangladesh for inciting a civil coup. Though he never been either a journalist or a prominent rights activist, his arrest had already turned Shahidul into a "journalist" and "prominent rights activist". Amnesty International, which always is enthusiastic in defending any anti-Semitic individual with its poster title 'Prisoner of Conscious' had done it again. The first individual from Bangladesh who has got this title was Shahriar Kabir, a firebrand activist defending the rights of Hindus in Bangladesh. Mr. Kabir has always been active in providing regular feedback to the Capitol in the US as well as Western policymakers on the "extreme repression on Hindus" in Bangladesh. He had enjoyed warm hospitality, patronization and even beyond from the Hindus in Bangladesh, India and rest of the world. But his monopoly in this field was first smashed by Richard Benkin, a Chicago-based Hindu rights activist and then Mendi N Safadi, an Israeli Druze. Interestingly though, Richard Benkin was a paid lobbyist for radical Islamic – Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) – Mendi Safadi has been receiving US$ 25 thousand every month for continuing anti-Bangladesh pro activities. Again this amount is being paid by a leader of BNP, Aslam Chowdhury. It should be mentioned here BNP considers Hamas and Hezbollah as its allies.
On December 6, 2018 the First Post, is an Indian news and media website. The site is a part of the Network 18 media conglomerate owned by Reliance Industries, which also runs CNN-News18 and CNBC-TV18 published an interview of Shahidul Alam. The interview captioned 'Where sycophancy is norm, truth is viewed as a sickness' has projected Mr. Shahidul as a champion defender of freedom of expression.
Before going into the details of the interview, let me say, Shahidul Alam hails from a family that opposed the war of independence of Bangladesh. More precisely, they are Pakistani collaborators. Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina mentioned Shahidul's deceased great unclde Abdus Sabur Khan, a former government minister who opposed Bangladesh's independence and allied with Pakistan. She told the Reuters, "He opposed our liberation war, he joined Pakistan, he didn't accept Bangladesh. In 1971 he was with the Pakistani occupation army," Hasina said. "Sometimes blood speaks, you understand that."
Most interestingly though, while Al Jazeera and many of the pro-Pakistan media are enthusiastically giving coverage to Shahidul Alam, several prominent Indian media as well as internationally known individuals like Noam Chomsky, Arundtati Roy, Naomi Klein, American playwright Eve Ensler and Indian journalist Vijay Prasad and others are extremely vocal in defence of this Bangladeshi photographer. Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen along with 11 other Nobel Prize winners had also spoken in defense of Shahidul.
In a letter to Shahidul Alam through PEN International, Arundhati Roy wrote: "Here in India, our rulers have dropped all pretense of the secularism and socialism that are enshrined in our constitution. In order to distract attention from the catastrophic failures of governance and deepening popular resentment, as institution after institution—our courts, universities, banks, intelligence agencies—is pushed into crisis, the ruling power, (not the Government, but its holding company, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh,) is alternately cajoling and threatening the Supreme Court to pass an order clearing the decks for the construction of a giant Hindu temple on the site where the Babri Masjid once stood before it was demolished by a rampaging mob. It's amazing how politicians' piety peaks and troughs with election cycles."
She added saying, "This is what we are up against, these neat definitions of the perfect nation, the perfect man, the perfect citizen, the perfect Hindu, the perfect Muslim. The postscript to this is the perfect majority and the satanic minority. The people of Europe and the Soviet Union have lived through the devastation that these sorts of ideas caused. They have suffered the matchless terror of neatness. Only recently Europe marked the 80th anniversary of Kristallnacht—the event that marked the beginning of the Holocaust. There too it all began quite slowly. There too it began with elections. And there too the old murmurs have started up again."
In her letter, Ms. Roy has brought the issue of general election in Bangladesh and India scheduled to be held in 2018 and 2019. This exactly is the reason of massive hue and cry centering Shahidul Alam. Religious bigots and enemies of interfaith harmony are united in a blame war against Bangladesh – more precisely, the secularist ruling party in the country.
Let us first of all take a glimpse on the background of Shahidul Alam. According to the Wikipedia, Shahidul studied and taught chemistry in London where he obtained a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of London. In personal life, he is living together with Rehnuma Ahmed and the couple never got married. During his days in UK, Shahidul Alam drew the attention of both British intelligence agency MI-6 as well as pro-Pakistani society in that country. He was reportedly recruited by the British intelligence while had spent a very colorful time romancing and sleeping with many of his female colleagues and students. During his London days, Shahidul Alam simultaneously dated with Scottish-born Karen and Indian born British national Nandini Mehta. As a result, Nanditi got pregnant. But Shahidul betrayed her and left United Kingdom very abruptly. Later, Nandini Mehta and even her family members contacted Shahidul in Dhaka with the request of marrying the mother of his child. But, he did not pay any heed to it.
This is just the tip of the iceberg on the personal character of the "champion defender of freedom of expression" Shahidul Alam.My curiosity here is on why the Indian newspaper First Post is so much interested in giving media coverage to this man. As we know, Narendra Modi and India are no more interested in Sheikh Hasina and had secretly joined hands with Bangladesh Nationalist Party and Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh, is it the same nexus that is continuing media offensives on the secularist Bangladesh Awami League and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina?

Best Ever Egg Salad is simple to make and can be eaten right away or stored for lunches for the week! This recipe is perfect with your favorite bread, wrap, or even on a salad!
What is in Traditional Egg Salad?
Most of the time a classic egg salad is going to always have hard boiled eggs, mayonnaise, salt and pepper. Once you have that base, you can really jazz it up to your own taste! I personally think egg salad needs a little more "zing" from something vinegary. So, that's going to come from mustard, dill pickle, lemon juice or some type of vinegar. If you love this egg salad for lunch, try our classic Chicken Salad recipe too!
How to Make an Egg Salad:
- Egg Salad is a family favorite at my house, we whip up a batch every week! It is creamy, the perfect balance of flavors, and so satisfying! This is great if you have leftover eggs from Easter too! If you're starting from scratch, here is how we boil our eggs and they turn out perfect every single time!
- Start with your eggs in a large saucepan and cover with one inch of water. Bring to a boil then move the pan from the heat and cover with a tight fitting lid. Now, just let the eggs sit for 9-13 minutes, depending on if you want them a little softer or a little more cooked.
- Once your time is up, add the eggs immediately from the hot pan into a large bowl of ice water. Let them sit for a good 10 minutes before you peel. Peel your eggs, and then mash/chop them up to your preference!
- You can chop them into bigger pieces if you want a chunkier egg salad with more texture, or just mash away if you like it creamy! Now, the only non-optional ingredients in this recipe are the eggs, mayo, salt, and pepper. But, I'll give you some ideas of what we like best as far as additions and how you can customize to your own taste! This egg salad is so good served on homemade quick Dill Bread! If you're looking for other creamy salads for lunch try out our Crab Salad too, its my fave!
A Few Recipe Notes and Quick Tips:
- Basic egg salad can really just be made with eggs, mayo, salt and pepper. But, we do a few things to make it the best! Trust me on our ratio of mayo/mustard here it comes out perfect every time. You really can use yellow, spicy brown, or dijon mustard. If you absolutely can't do mustard try adding a bit of apple cider vinegar instead.
- I love adding a teaspoon of lemon juice to my egg salad, it gives it a nice tang! But, the mustard adds good tang too. The lemon is optional and you can leave it out if you want!
- RELISH! I absolutely love relish in egg salad, I am a dill relish kind of girl but sweet works fine too if that is what you love the most! If you don't have relish you can just chop up some pickles too.
- I call for chives in this recipe and they add such a nice savory flavor! If you don't have chives, just finely dice up some green onions instead. If you like a strong onion flavor you can very finely dice up some red/yellow onion too.
- Other additions: Egg salad is great with chopped cooked bacon, diced avocados, capers, chopped cucumbers, or celery. I like this best with fresh dill, but it's also optional and you can use dried dill if you wish.
- Egg salad can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge and should be eaten within 3-4 days for the best quality and flavor. I don't recommend freezing as it won't hold up well.
Best Ever Egg Salad
- 1 Dozen 12 hardboiled eggs, peeled & diced
- ½ Cup Mayonnaise
- ¼ Cup Chopped chives or green onion
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon Garlic powder

What is Channel Integration Framework(CIF):
With CIF we can integrate any third-party channel provider into a model-driven app, where the CIF acts as an interface between the providers and model-driven applications.
Technically CIF is a set of APIs (methods, events and protocols) that enables developers and partners to build diving communication experiences such that third party communication widgets running on channel provider/partner cloud can interact with Dynamics 365.
Why Channel Integration Framework:
Before CIF, organizations have struggled to communicate with the customers in the channels of their choice.
It was not easy to integrate a 3rd party application solution into the system. Partner Developers invested in unsupported customization and manipulation in order to embed their channel widgets in Dynamics 365.
Launching CIF minimizes the effort, maximizes productivity, and helps to deliver best-in-class customer service.
CIF Framework benefits:
- With the Dynamics 365 application, CIF Framework is extensible to integrate third-party cloud-based channel providers.
- CIF is a platform-independent, browser-independent.
- It allows two-way communication. Therefore allows both inbound and outbound data flow.
- Channels such as voice, video, chat, co-browse, etc can be built as long as there's a Javascript-based widget available.
- You can build the channel once and that can be enabled on the model-driven app of our choice based on business requirements.
- It allows us to configure screen pops to display customer information that can help us to start a conversation efficiently and effectively.
- Easy to develop, implement, and deploy the channel of our choice.
- It allows us to integrate multiple channel providers rather than a single channel.
- It allows us to Customize the channel programmatically or manually to give enhanced agent experience like maximizing, minimizing, show, hide, height, width, pop-out, and so on.

Paris History
Parc de Belleville Park in Paris
The Parc de Belleville park was only established back in the 1980s, yet located on a hill it offers a great panoramic view of the city, also has a rich history including vines that are still being cultivated, an open air theatre, childrens playground and the Musee de l'Air museum.
A bit of history
The Belleville hill has a very rich history right through from the Middle Ages when many religious communities acquired different areas on the hill to cultivate vines etc and during the 14th to the 18th century many dance halls and tavern popped up in the area and served the local wine.
However, during the 18th century, the land became mainly agricultural and the landscape was dominated by a windmill, then with the opening of the gypsum quarries, this area attracted a new population that worked for Baron Haussemann during the winter and harvested their land in the summer months, yet the area was deemed an unsafe place to live.
But during the 19th century, some small houses were generally located on either side of two sets of stairs on the Belleville hill, and were inhabited by people of modest means, and every year there were always celebrations held on the hill and in the many of the taverns. Yet by the 20th century, these small houses, courtyards and passages had gradually disappeared and had given way to far more modern homes and the Belleville park as it was, however in more recent years, this has undergone another complete change.
About the Parc de Belleville today
In an area that was lacking many green spaces, this
park in Paris
has got to be one of the best achievements for the 20th Arrondissement of Paris over the last few years, which was designed by the architect Francois Debulois and the landscape architect Paul Brichet.
Created in 1988, the Parc de Belleville is spread over an area of around 45,000 metres squared and offers a fabulous view over the city if you climb the 30 metres or so to the terrace, yet still has around 140 vines that are harvested each year, as a reminder of the history of this park in Paris.
Within the park you can discover one of the largest cascading
fountains in Paris
, which is approximately 100 metres long and runs down the side of the hill, plus there are green spaces where you can just relax or have a picnic, along with an open air theatre where numerous events take place each year.
Or why not take a walk on the paths that crisscross throughout the Parc de Belleville in between the flowers, perennials, vines and under the shade of numerous different species of trees, but if you want to catch up with friends or family, there is also a WiFi hotspot as well.
In addition to these, there is also a childrens playground that was devised with the support and ideas of the residents within the area, and is designed for children from the age of 6 years and upwards. Mainly built of wood, it clings to a 30 degree slope and has three different levels that are accessed via stairs and exited via different slides, plus there are also table tennis tables as well.
However, also located within the Parc de Belleville, there is the
Maison de l'Air
, which translates to House of the Air, and this is where the air quality of Paris is measured, along with satellite imaging of the weather over Europe.
Plus it also used to be home to a
museum in Paris
with permanent exhibitions where you could discover more about atmospheric phenomena, pollution and air quality and the roles that air plays within our environment, yet unfortunately the Maison de l'Air is now closed to the public.
Access to the Parc de Belleville
There is free access to the Parc de Belleville all year round and you will be pleased to know that the majority of the area is accessible to the disabled. It opens 8am during weekdays and 9am on weekends plus on
French National holidays
. Yet when it comes to closing times, this varies depending upon the time of year, which can be as early as 5:30pm in winter through to as late as 9:30pm in summer.
Another point is the fact that guided tours of the gardens are organised by the Direction des Parcs et Jardins and to find out more about when different tours are going to be conducted in the parks and gardens in Paris, then you would need to telephone +33 (0) 1 40 71 75 60.
As we mentioned earlier, this park is located in the 20th Arrondissement and close to the Pere Lechaise cemetery, pedestrian access is via the Rue Piat.
When it comes to getting to the Parc de Belleville via
public transport in Paris
, then the nearest
Metro station
to the entrance on the Rue Piat is the Pyrenees stop serving Line 11. Alternatively there is the Couronnes stop at the opposite end of the park serving Line 2, along with the Belleville stop serving both lines 2 and 11.
However, the
bus lines
26 or 96 along with the
Noctilien Night Bus
Service via lines N12 and N23 will also get you within walking distance of the Parc de Belleville.

Turn it into a good thing
If you're disappointed with yourself, with someone else, with a particular situation or just with life in general, you're at a powerful starting point. You can channel that energy of disappointment in a positive direction and do great things with it.
Feel the disappointment, and then let it pick you up, push you forward and get you going. Suddenly you're fifty miles down the road, well on your way to meaningful achievement.
Don't concern yourself with what went wrong, or with whatever things you dislike. Focus your attention on a great, shining vision of how you want life to be.
Give the power of your attention to your positive goals, to your dreams and highest aspirations. Give your time and energy to making all those great things happen.
Doing something positive with your disappointment takes a lot more effort than just sulking and brooding. And yet, very quickly, it feels a whole lot better to be doing something than to just stay mired in negativity.
When life disappoints you, the best choice you have is to turn it into a good thing. In fact, decide to make it into the best thing that ever happened, and leave your disappointment far behind.

Evaluation of pre-hospital administration of adrenaline (epinephrine) by emergency medical services for patients with out of hospital cardiac arrest in Japan: controlled propensity matched retrospective cohort study
To evaluate the effectiveness of pre-hospital adrenaline (epinephrine) administered by emergency medical services to patients with out of hospital cardiac arrest.
Design Controlled propensity matched retrospective cohort study, in which pairs of patients with or without (control) adrenaline were created with a sequential risk set matching based on time dependent propensity score using Japan's nationwide registry database of patients with out of hospital cardiac arrest registered between January 2007 and December 2010. Among patients aged 15-94 with out of hospital cardiac arrest witnessed by a bystander, the authors created 1990 pairs of patients with and without adrenaline with an initial rhythm of ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VF/VT) and 9058 pairs among those with non-VF/VT. The main outcome measures were overall and neurologically intact survival at one month or at discharge, whichever was earlier.
Results After propensity matching, pre-hospital administration of adrenaline by emergency medical services was associated with a higher proportion of overall survival (17.0% v 13.4%; unadjusted odds ratio 1.34, 95% confidence interval 1.12 to 1.60) but not with neurologically intact survival (6.6% v 6.6%; 1.01, 0.78 to 1.30) among those with VF/VT; and higher proportions of overall survival (4.0% v 2.4%; odds ratio 1.72, 1.45 to 2.04) and neurologically intact survival (0.7% v 0.4%; 1.57, 1.04 to 2.37) among those with non-VF/VT.
Conclusions Pre-hospital administration of adrenaline by emergency medical services improves the long term outcome in patients with out of hospital cardiac arrest, although the absolute increase of neurologically intact survival was minimal.

Leader of Napa adoption agency may be under arrest
By DAVID RYAN, Register Staff Writer
Russian authorities have apparently detained Ivan Jerdev, the owner of Napa-based adoption firm Yunona USA, and will likely charge him with fraud and illegal disclosure of confidential information, Russian news agencies reported Wednesday.
More than a dozen would-be adoptive parents across the United States allege Yunona engaged in bait-and-switch tactics to convince them to spend thousands of dollars to adopt children from around the world. The couples later found out the children were never available, and then could not get refunds from Yunona.
The Napa County District Attorney filed a civil suit against Yunona and two former employees on Jan. 9, seeking damages that could exceed $1 million. Prosecutors also won a court injunction ordering the closure of Yunona the same day. Napa police are investigating possible criminal charges.
The Russian Internet daily Kommersant reported Wednesday that Ivan Zherdev, an alternative spelling for Jerdev, was detained by Russian authorities in connection with an investigation into his practices. The Moscow Times reported that Yunona's general director -- a person matching the title of Jerdev -- was detained. It also said that Yuga.ru, a news agency in Krasnodar, Russia, reported unnamed sources in the Krasnodar prosecutor's office identifying the director as Ivan Zherdev.
Krasnodar is a region in southern Russia where former Yunona employees say Jerdev frequently spends time. Now-defunct Yunona Web sites say Krasnodar is where Jerdev got his start as a businessman.
The Moscow Times said Jerdev could face up to six years in Russian prison if tried and convicted of fraud and releasing confidential information.
"Pretending to provide various services, this group was effectively engaged in trafficking in children," Russian Deputy Prosecutor General Sergei Fridinsky reportedly said in a statement.
Yulia Vlasova, a spokeswoman for the Krasnodar prosecutor's office, told the Moscow Times Yunona's network of coordinators in Krasnodar bribed officials to illegally obtain information about orphaned children before that information showed up in Russian government adoption databases.
Yunona then posted the information on Web sites directed at prospective adoptive parents in America, who paid sometimes tens of thousands of dollars in hopes of adopting the children.
In the United States, e-mail records and interviews show Yunona employee Elina Valiev of Estero, Fla., continued to work with Yunona clients Rick and Olga Jorgensen of Greenwich, Conn. for more than a week after Yunona was ordered closed by a Napa judge on Jan. 9, never informing the Jorgensens of any legal trouble.
According to Daryl Roberts, Napa County Deputy District Attorney, the injunction doesn't apply to Valiev until she is legally served with it. The injunction ordered Yunona, Sims and "their agents, servants, employees, representatives" to cease operations.
Another former client couple in Hollister said Valiev urged them to continue their Yunona adoption as normal on Jan. 10, a day after the court injunction, but Valiev did not mention any problems with the company. The couple, who asked to remain anonymous, stopped the process after they read an article about Yunona on the Internet the next day.
Valiev's phone in Florida is disconnected, but two Yunona e-mail addresses she used to contact clients in the past two weeks were still operating Tuesday and Wednesday. Valiev did not return an e-mail request for comment.
According to former Yunona Vice President Nick Sims, Valiev ran the Napa office as a manager, directing employees and handling clients when Jerdev was away in Russia.
He said he told Valiev the company couldn't operate the week he signed the Napa court injunction on Jan. 6, a few days before the court formally ordered it.
"I know she knows because I had talked to her before the injunction," he said. "She said, 'Is this it? Can I talk to the parents anymore? Can I do this? Can I do that?' And I said, 'Nope.'"
Sims said he discussed the injunction with Valiev again the weekend of Jan. 13-15, when she visited Napa.
On Jan. 6 Valiev coached Rick Jorgensen on how to get his papers in order for the adoption, with no mention of any Yunona legal trouble. Later, on Jan. 17, she sent Rick and Olga Jorgensen a receipt for money he sent to a Ukrainian orphanage for a child's birthday party.
"Elina kept counseling us the same way our coordinator did in 2002 (for an earlier adoption) as if everything was perfectly normal," he said.
Jorgensen sent Yunona $5,000 in November 2005 and corresponded with Valiev frequently after Dec. 28. Jorgensen had no idea police had raided the business a few days before, but because he had successfully adopted a 13-year-old girl through Yunona in 2002, he said he had no reason to suspect Yunona would not come through again.
"Yunona did an effective job not only for us but at least four other parents ... but something changed," he said. "It was always problematic. It was emotional and difficult. Maybe it got to be too much for them."

How Officials Plan to Overhaul the Scandal-Plagued Massachusetts State Police
One troop will be disbanded, cruisers will be monitored with GPS, and other big changes are coming.
After weeks of bad headlines for the Massachusetts State Police, officials on Monday announced reforms planned for the scandal-plagued department, including GPS monitoring for troopers, an independent audit of staffing and overtime, and a new body camera program.
The sweeping changes followed revelations that troopers were taking home gargantuan paychecks and were in some cases paid for scores of shifts they didn't actually work.
At a Monday press conference to announce the overhaul, Gov. Charlie Baker Baker seemed genuinely angered by the reported bad behavior and lack of oversight among some in the force. Joined by State Police Col. Kerry Gilpin, he suggested those who abused their positions might face criminal charges (if deemed appropriate after an investigation led by the Attorney General's office), and possibly lose their pensions.
"The Massachusetts State Police swore an oath to the citizens of the Commonwealth to fulfill their duties with dignity and integrity, and a series of recent incidents has sadly tarnished the department's trust with the public," Baker said in a statement on Monday. "To restore transparency and accountability, our administration has collaborated with the Colonel on these reforms and I look forward to their swift implementation."
Officials said GPS-enabled Automated Vehicle Location devices will be used to monitor the location of state police cruisers—in other words, to make sure troopers are where they're supposed to be. The devices are already installed in state police vehicles, and just need to be turned on.
Troop E, which is charged with monitoring the Mass Pike, will be disbanded, and patrolling the highway will become a responsibility shared by existing troops along its route. This comes after at least 30 of the troopers from Troop E were allegedly paid in 2016 for shifts they did not actually work.
Troop F, which patrols Logan Airport and other MassPort properties, will now be paid directly by the state police, and then reimbursed by MassPort. Payroll data for the troop had reportedly not been disclosed to the state since 2010. Many troopers logged overtime hours worth more than $100,000, and were being paid as much as $350,000 a year.
The department will also hire a firm to conduct an independent audit of staffing levels to determine whether the department is relying too much on overtime shifts to meet its needs. Going forward, the department's top 50 earners will also be subject to an automatic audit. And ten additional personnel will be hired in oversight and accountability roles, officials said.
State Police will also follow Boston's lead and launch a plan to equip troopers with body-worn cameras, which Baker said he hoped would begin by the end of this year.
Baker has also asked state and city police to look into shared oversight of the Seaport—much of which is controlled by MassPort, and thus falls under state police jurisdiction, despite being a thriving Boston neighborhood. The unusual arrangement has sparked what's been described as a "turf war" among state and local law enforcement.
In addition, officials said they would explore strengthened background checks for new state police hires, and said a revised questionnaire will ask whether a candidate was involved in a criminal investigation, regardless of whether they were charged with a crime. This come after the revelation that a state police trooper had previously testified in court that she helped an ex-boyfriend deal drugs.
"These reforms are a product of collaboration between my command staff, the administration, and me, with the shared goal of increasing the efficiency, transparency and accountability of the State Police while further enhancing our capabilities to protect everyone who lives in, works, and travels through our state," Col. Gilpin, who Baker appointed to the position after Col. Richard McKeon retired in November amid a scandal involving altered arrest reports. "I believe these reforms will improve the entire department from top to bottom, and better serve our dedicated troopers and the public. Their implementation will require much planning and hard work. We are committed to that effort."

The first half of the bracket comes to a close as the final match-up gets underway. Offense has gained some momentum with a few wins strung together, but unfortunately for them that streak comes to an end as two defensive players face off. Yep, that fullback we enjoyed watching bust some heads while at LSU came to Baton Rouge as a defensive tackle. The other one made one of the more impressive transitions from high school to college and has a bright future ahead of him. However, only one can close out the first half of a bracket with a win.
No. 2 Seed J.C. Copeland
The first thing that jumps out at you watching this video is that Copeland sports one of the quickest first steps I have seen until watching Trey Lealaimatafao (who you will get a glimpse of later in the tourney). The knock on Copeland was he was too short to be a college defensive tackle at 5'11". Despite his shortcomings (a little pun intended, not there though), the coaches loved his tenacity and he became one scary run blocker for them. Fans thought they were getting a quick defensive tackle after watching his highlights and for good reason.
No. 7 Seed Rashard Robinson
You have to head to HUDL if you want to see Robinson's highlights, but don't worry, it's well worth the trip. Before making one of the more impressive transitions from high school to college, Robinson was a promising 6'3" cornerback where Patrick Peterson once roamed. While you don't see a lot of the man coverage that garnered him early playing time at LSU, you see a lot of the other abilities that he brings to the field. A tenacity to hit anyone around him, hard, running up to the line to make plays, and chasing down opponents who are thinking a touchdown is in their near future. Robinson showed a little bit of everything and showed the potential that Corey Raymond quickly saw and helped transform into one hell of a cornerback.
While some may have thought looking through this tourney that their memories of Copeland's film would carry him through. Unfortunately, only 32 players made it into this and gives everyone a difficult match-up, as we saw with Valentine upsetting No. 1 seed Perrilloux earlier. Every match-up, well almost every, can go either way and it's up to all of you to decide who in fact moves on to the next round.
Two Things To Remember:
1. You are voting on who has the best VIDEO. Not who you think will be better at LSU, not who you think will project to be a better NFL player. You are judging the two videos above.
2. You have until Wednesday at midnight to cast your vote for your selection before the poll closes and we move on to our next matchup later that morning.

The $490-million Governor George Deukmejian Courthouse project in Long Beach, Calif., employed fast-track design-build, led by an international group of investors and builders. The owner—the state of California's Judicial Council, Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC)—selected a finance team led by France's Meridiam Infrastructure, working with its local development company, Long Beach Judicial Partners. Capital was provided by a consortium of Canadian, European and Japanese banks.
The new courthouse replaced a functionally deficient 35-year-old building nearby. Components of the new, 545,000-sq-ft facility include 31 courtrooms, 105,000 sq ft of leasable office and retail space, and seismic upgrades to an existing parking garage. The L-shaped building opened last summer, after a 26-month construction schedule.
The project is the first infrastructure building in the U.S. to be completed under a performance-based infrastructure approach, according to project officials. PBI uses a public-private partnership not only to fund design and construction but also for long-term operations and maintenance, provided by a private contractor—in this case, Johnson Controls.
The PBI contract meant the state and AOC spent no money up front: Their payments did not begin until satisfactory completion of the building and its occupancy. The state retains full ownership of the building and the site and pays back capital costs on an annual basis. The contract includes operating and maintenance expenses for 35 years.
The PBI agreement provided better value to the state and shifted all risk to the private-sector partners, says Clifford Ham, principal architect for AOC in California. "It also allowed us to expand within the building, should we need to, and hand over maintenance and operation for less expense than the state could provide."
He adds that the performance aspect of the contract was especially important to AOC and the state of California. "The private sector must maintain the building in a way that works for us. And we don't have to pay them if it doesn't."
Materials for the building were globally sourced. Portland, Ore.-based Benson Industries installed the unitized curtain wall using glass from Minnesota and aluminum extrusions from Korea, with assembly in China and Mexico. Quebec's Ebenisterie Beaubois provided courtroom millwork, with hardwood veneers from Indianapolis.
Development Industries Inc., Los Angeles, led quality-control oversight on the project, including shop drawings, detailing, fabrication, shipping and final installation of the millwork. Lori Guidry, Development Industries' president, says the presence of a large international design-build team meant "a lot more attention paid to the quality details than we're accustomed to. More stakeholders meant more eyes on everything."
The courthouse project had a short construction schedule and "a long-term outlook," Ham says. "The international PBI aspect meant that it was better reviewed and examined than most projects."

Bulls grab two back-to-back 7-1 wins to kick off weekend tournament
Thanks to their explosive offense and a one-hitter from Georgina Corrick, USF softball extended its win streak to six after 7-1 victories against No. 23 Wisconsin and UMass on Friday to kick off their weekend in the USF-Clearwater Parks and Recreation Showcase Tournament.
Filla hits first career homer in Bulls' victory over No. 23 Badgers
Georgina Corrick's one-hitter and the team's offensive prowess handed coach Ken Eriksen career win No. 950 in USF's 7-1 victory against No. 23 Wisconisin.
In a game that showcased individual offensive skill, the Bulls' scoring momentum was driven by an early RBI from Bethaney Keen and the Bulls scored three runs in the next two innings to put them ahead of the Badgers 3-1.
Freshman Tayli Filla stepped up to the plate in the bottom of the sixth inning and crushed the 1-2 pitch over the left-field fence to score Dezarae Maldonado and Brooke Liestl, who were pinch running for Keen and Macy Cook, respectively.
This was Filla's first career home run.
"It was exciting, everything is finally coming together," Filla said. "It feels really good."
Eriksen credits the veteran players for creating an environment that makes it easier for freshmen to grow in their game.
"Our freshman class that's out there playing right now … they're playing ball and they're fitting in, but you know what, that's a credit to them," Eriksen said. "In all honesty, the environment that the upper-class people have made for them … you don't have freshmen that come in and produce like they are unless they feel comfortable with their team."
Filla's homer finished off the Bulls' runs against the Badgers, however Corrick's pitching kept Wisconsin from scoring more than one run.
Corrick, who registered her 10th win this season and second career win over Wisconsin, pitched 6.2 innings and struck out seven. Corrick was replaced by Cheyenne Eggens who finished out the game against the Badgers.
Cook and Bruni lead way in victory over UMass
The batters stole the show against UMass, with Macy Cook and Anamarie Bruni leading offensively.
Cook, who went 2-for-2 and registered four RBIs, drove in the first run for the Bulls in the bottom of the first when she singled to center field, scoring Megan Pierro. Cook also drove in Pierro in the third inning for USF's third run against the Minutewomen.
"We don't really have any power hitters … but if [Cook] catches one it's gonna go out," Eriksen said. "The big deal for her is being in the five spot. If you can get [Lindsey Devitt], Bruni and Pierro on bases before her and [Keen], you've got a chance to drive guys in."
Cook put two more runs on the board when she stepped up to the plate and singled in the bottom of the fifth to score Bruni and Pierro for the third time in the game.
Bruni also performed well offensively across both games, going 6-for-8 on the day while scoring four runs. She also registered a season-high three hits against the Minutewomen.
"If I rush and get too crazy up here [in her head] and get squirrels, I don't do too well," Bruni said. "Today, I just felt really relaxed and I just took it slow in the box."
Bruni also stole a base in the bottom of the third, her team-leading 16th of the season. Bruni has also managed to steal at least one base in her last three games.
Bruni's hits have mainly been infield hits this season and she spoke on how her speed has helped her make it to first base.
"It depends on what I'm eating in the morning," Bruni joked. "I think I've gotten faster through our workouts. We do a lot of speed and agility work so I feel like that's helped."
The Bulls look to continue their winning streak in the tournament as they take on No. 16 Indiana at 3:30 p.m. and St. John's at 6 p.m. in another doubleheader Saturday in Clearwater.
"We've got a test every day. Every day its like an SAT for this team," Eriksen said.

Do you like driving dirty? Really dirty? Then, Wreckfest is for you
Type: Single-player, Multi-player
Genre: Racing, Simulation, Sports
Developer: Bugbear
Publisher: THQ Nordic
Franchise: Wreckfest
Release Date: Aug 29, 2019
Wreckfest is the contact sport of the racing genre. Motorized rugby distilled down to axles and tires barely holding on as your car veers wildly out of control in a race to the finish line, except that you just got mowed down by a couch on wheels. Ouch. No, it is not the beginning of a Simpsons episode, it's Wreckfest, where your wildest driving desires are made flesh as you dive headfirst into some anarchist automotive mayhem for the masses.
Wreckfest is for the Mad Max driver in us, where the only things missing are harpoons and flame throwers welded to the chassis (for now!). The PS4 release has recently graced the shelves of the Playstation store offerings and oh what a joy of destruction it is.
Now, I've also been perusing the anti-accolades of late on Steam because there is a bit of an uproar from the PC fan base, where Wreckfest had its origins, after the latest patch. This patch is essentially the console release you'll be playing on your PS4. I honestly think it is overblown and, frankly, the review bombs often render Steam reviews empty of impartial critique in favor of a means to vent in a digital society where typing "this is trash" is somehow considered the "true" review.
I'll share my thoughts as someone who bought the game on Steam before it was even officially released. Maybe that will help a bit.
Back in the time before dinosaurs, Wreckfest was in Early Access and super amazingly bare bones as far as a racing game went. It had some nice physics, destruction effects galore, and very much had a sim-like feel to the controls. Yet, there were very few tracks, a handful of cars, the framerate was all over the place, and the online community was small. Fast forward to the actual release on Steam in 2018 and it was a full-blown game at last, with a larger community, more tracks, more polish, a ton of physics and detail, yet still some frame rate issues for those who don't have a $2000 PC. Then came the August 2019 patch.
Dun. dun. Dunnnnnnnn. Things were changed and the community cried foul. What changed? Well, they released the console version of the game instead which is good and bad. Bad for those that liked the sim-like feel of the controls, but good for those who suck at car sims and wanted something a little easier to play. Bad for those that like the game cranked up to Ultra with as many crashy bits and pieces flying around as possible, but good for those with mid-level PC's who want to play with a steady framerate. Bad for those that liked to play with AI because now they drive sporadically both hard and easy, but good for those that like the challenge or don't care about the singleplayer anyway. Gone are the ultra-detailed effects which would tank the framerate of lesser PCs. Gone are the car sim controls in favor of an easier to drive experience. I do have to say, that was an awful lot of work by the studio that was essentially thinned out, which is a head-shaker of a situation all by itself. My thoughts?
It's still a damned good game.
Wreckfest is not an arcade racer, but more like an Arcade ++ because you need to practice awhile to get good at this game or you won't even get to the finish line, that is for sure. They took out some of the car sim feel and replaced it with an easier to play game that even non-racers may enjoy playing, but it's not dumbed down in the least. Seriously, the controls are very tight and feel like they are on the edge of being out of control while still allowing some steering and movement allowances. I say this as someone using a PS4 controller, not a keyboard and mouse, so that's my take. Also, it's not *that* easy and yes you will get wrecked often, probably every time until you learn how to stay clear of certain split-second catastrophes on the track. That said, your driving settings are the DEFAULT values. You can go into settings and change things up however you like.
You can adjust your Suspension, Gear Ratio, Differential, and Brake Balance. The way you change these can really affect your race, but it depends on the track. I adjusted my Suspension for paved roads on the Figure 8 tracks and it made a huge difference. On the mixed tracks, much less so and I'd even go so far as to say it'll make it harder to play if you mess with the settings on mixed road surfaces, but try out different things to see what works best for you. I also liked changing the Differential as that seemed to prevent my overblown cornering. Additionally, there are more advanced settings to adjust. I played with these a bit, but I could not tell much difference one way or the other. Give it a go and see how it works for you.
On PS4 the default controls actually feel great and, personally, I feel the more folks racing just makes it better because this game is not so much about making it to the finish line fastest as it is about playing as dirty as possible with absolutely over the top moves that change the outcome of the race by the second. Though, yeah, you probably want to come in first when you can. You are in for the journey and experience as much as the race itself. If you want a car sim, look elsewhere. This is just plain racing FUN without extra frustration and honestly one of the best crazy racing games produced this console generation. Jump in, rev your engine, and drive into sheer chaos.
I played the game on a PS4 Pro and had zero framerate issues. Granted, it is playing at 1080p and I'd hope for a resolution upgrade or maybe a physics upgrade, but for now we get a steady 30 FPS, which is more than I can say from the older PC unpatched version of the game where I'd get frame drops whenever too many particles were on the screen. Also, the multiplayer is absolutely awesome. I never had a disconnect or time-out once and I'm just using regular wifi on my PS4. There are a ton of people playing, so finding a group of folks online is a breeze. However, there are some waiting times involved. It is not as bad as it was on PC, but it's still going to be a wait to load the lobby, find the players, and then wait for them all to get ready. Overall, a solid multiplayer experience where I have yet to experience a problem after several days of playing.
Would it be better at 60 FPS? Absolutely. But there is so much going on, I doubt the PS4 could manage that, not even on a Pro. Can you imagine 24 cars all exploding and crashing into each other as they race down the track in multiplayer with all the effects turned up? Maybe on a 2080 video card, but that would kill the framerate for sure on a PS4 Pro, so 60 FPS just isn't going to happen. I'll take the steady FPS instead. So, there is that 30 FPS limit that will make you wince a bit if you think framerates are the sole purpose for living. Maybe it'll clear up on PS5 with the PS4 backward compatibility, I don't know. Does it make me enjoy the game less? Nope.
You wonder if the destruction comes off as mediocre or turned too far down? Not really. You still get a ton of effects and proper crunch and pieces flying. Not as many as before, but there has to be some sort of leeway to get that steady framerate, so point taken. The damage each car receives is unique and affects your driving as well, so you get a very realistic effect on how the car handles the more you get clobbered.
As for actual cars, I didn't see any licensed car makes or models. Don't go in hoping to drive your favorite muscle car, but you get the general feel what they represent. There are upgrades to the car you can purchase as well like the valves, new spark plugs, a better air filter, armor, and more.
There is a huge variety of tracks now, many of them carefully designed to extract the maximum amount of carnage from each curve and turn. There are also eight tracks where you have to somehow dodge oncoming traffic as you drive along your lap. Those might piss off some folks to be honest, but keep in mind this is Wreckfest not Project Cars here. I also enjoyed the death loops where your car becomes a roller-coaster ride and, of course, the non-racing tracks.
Venture away from the races and you'll find the demolition derby, complete with last man standing or even lawnmower death runs and sofa races. Truthfully, driving a lawnmower or sofa is substantially harder than driving a car. One of the first singleplayer events is to win a lawnmower derby and I had to employ some dirty tactics just to do it. Instead of racing to the end to see if I could win, which I tried to do to no avail, I decided to create the largest pile up of lawnmowers as possible and then, when I was down to a few AI bots to take down, I made a point to trip them up before they got too far and take the lead. Call it playing unfair or whatnot, but in Wreckfest you get XP just for smashing into other cars. I love it.
Single Player
There is actually quite a lot of content here with tiered sections you can unlock by gaining XP. Here you'll find challenges and races with set goals like coming in first or beating a single car in 1 on 1 race. Once you complete those challenges you get awarded XP, stars, and unlock cars to keep in your garage. You can also earn credits to purchase cars. Be aware some cars won't unlock for a certain challenge. You'll need to purchase those in the market, but this is just earned in-game money.
Now there are some challenges that are incredibly frustrating. I am looking at you Sofa Race Challenge! Dear gawd, trying to drive that box on wheels is hard enough, but 6 laps of 24 cars and you have to come in first? I played that dozens of times and the best I got was 3rd place.
The soundtrack is absolutely crunchy with a bit of ghost pepper distortion to top off the perfect blend of metal and the occasional laid back EDM that somehow feels like there is an underlying power chord around the corner. If you like metal, this is a treat and by no exaggeration, the songs are screaming your voice box out of commission good. I just wish there were more of them, as they do get repeated a bit too often.
What I thought was lacking most were the sounds on the track. My engine often sounded more like an ATV recording. Where is the low hum of an idling V10 engine and the growl of a monster american car about to eviscerate the competition in a demolition derby? Please update with mean sounding engines. Unless those sounds are trademarked somehow? I have no idea.
Just as I was about to finish a glowing review, I started getting bugs in a challenge event. Usually it creeps up as a solid grey blob vector that hides a chunk of the screen. It only happened in one event, the sofa event, but still it is something I have to mention because it happened multiple times. Oddly, it did not happen again the next day.
Wreckfest is a gem of a game with no holds barred because just as you are on the final lap in first place, you get hit upside the head and fall to 16th place in 2 seconds. It can be absolutely fun or aggravating, depending on your point of view. For me, I enjoy the ride as much as the challenge, essentially making it a great experience whether I win or not.
In my opinion, it provides a very evenly balanced way for both new and seasoned drivers to get right into the fray of things. This is definitely a game you want to install and just leave it there for a quick match of metal fury death wrecking. If you look at the trailer and think, "Man, I can get into this.", then you very likely will. The controls are somewhere between a sim and arcade with a steady 30FPS and multiplayer works great, even over wifi. You can race with farm combines, lawnmowers, RV's, school buses, and even a sofa couch on wheels. With more tracks than ever, some nice DLC like Goofy Roofs with missiles and poop, and more content planned for a season pass, this is a much more complete and ongoing game than I expected back when I bought it on Early Access. It's worth getting into, so I rate this a Save for all your destructive drivers out there ready to smash into someone else.

Nose is one facial organ very sensitive which affect our sense of smell, helps in breathing, it is connected with the eyes and mouth and thus without a doubt is a very important part of our body. Sometimes, certain Nose diseases, such as common colds, sinus problems, post nasal drips, certain allergies or conditions resulting due to weather conditions like frostbites result in the nasal passage getting narrower making it difficult to breath, bleeding, congestions etc. Such Nose diseases like other illness can be acute as well as chronic so have to be treated with care.
Step 1
Examples of Nose diseases mentioned above can result from many reasons, like accidents, weather change, it can be seasonal, some allergic reaction etc. dieses have been there since the existence of mankind in one way or another , the only difference remains is that of the research and development done by mankind to treat these illnesses.
Step 2
Certain symptoms can be noticed when faced with Nose diseases, some are listed below:
• Nose bleeds
• Nose pain
• Nose swelling
• Dysfunction of smell
• Difficulty breathing
• Nose deformity
• Nose lump
• Nasal discharge
• Headaches
• Nose bruising
Each of these symptoms can not just result in nose diseases but other diseases as well, so proper diagnosis is very important. And when it comes to treatment, many supplements antibiotic are feasible to be used in each case in improving the condition of the illness. For example for nasal congestion there are drugs as well as certain syrups for example sinus sooth which is herbal syrup. So medications can be both chemical and herbal based which are used for cure. When it comes to sever cases of nose diseases, surgery is the only cure for example in severe sinus dieses, nose polyps and deviated septum. Preventions are always better then cure, so one should keep their surroundings clean, not to let dust particles accumulate, air purifiers or water purifiers can be used, elimination of tobacco smoke should be carried out, for those dieses that are caused by weather changes, proper protective clothing should be worn to prevent catching a cold. For allergies, those items with which one is allergic from should not be kept around, or be avoided if there are certain plants, or eatables. Many anti-allergic are present with supplements of vitamins and minerals which help in minimizing the effect of the allergic reactions and could be consumed throughout the time period of the allergy for example kestine or zyrtec. Also important is the fact that awareness about ones condition which allows for proper preventions and medication, so one can take care of themselves in a given manner.
Step 3
The nose is a very sensitive organ with interconnected functions with other organs so if one has Nose diseases that surely it is going to affect otherwise as well. Thus care should be taken as you have only one nose and not many to be replaced upon damage. Insure that you go to certified doctors, get proper diagnoses and keep healthy.

Graph Theoretic Approaches to Understand Resilience of Complex SystemsChopra, Shauhrat S. (2015) Graph Theoretic Approaches to Understand Resilience of Complex Systems. Doctoral Dissertation, University of Pittsburgh. (Unpublished)
AbstractModern society is critically dependent on a network of complex systems for almost every social and economic function. While increasing complexity in large-scale engineered systems offer many advantages including high efficiency, performance and robustness, it inadvertently makes them vulnerable to unanticipated perturbations. A disruption affecting even one component may result in large cascading impacts on the entire system due to high interconnectedness. Large direct and indirect impacts across national and international boundaries of natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina, infrastructure failures like the Northeast blackout, epidemics like the H1N1 influenza, terrorist attacks like the 9/11, and social unrests like the Arab Spring are indicative of the vulnerability associated with growing complexity. There is an urgent need for a quantitative framework to understand resilience of complex systems with different system architectures. In this work, a novel framework is developed that integrates graph theory with statistical and modeling techniques for understanding interconnectedness, interdependencies, and resilience of distinct large-scale systems while remaining cognizant of domain specific details. The framework is applied to three diverse complex systems, 1) Critical Infrastructure Sectors (CIS) of the U.S economy, 2) the Kalundborg Industrial Symbiosis (KIS), Denmark and 3) the London metro-rail infrastructure. These three systems are strategically chosen as they represent complex systems of distinct sizes and span different spatial scales. Share

Denver Newsroom, Dec 18, 2021 / 04:00 am
A documentary produced by a French filmmaker about Venerable Jerome Lejeune, a Catholic doctor and scientist who left a legacy of caring for people with Down syndrome, is set to air this January on EWTN.
Lejeune is perhaps best known for discovering the genetic cause of Trisomy 21, or Down syndrome, in 1959, a discovery that made him famous and world-renowned.
Once offensively termed "Mongolism," Down syndrome was little-understood for centuries, and those with it, and their parents, were often marginalized and stigmatized well into the 19th and 20th centuries. The film features numerous parents speaking about the challenges and stigmatization they faced after their child was found to have Down syndrome, with one mother even saying that the hospital urged her to abandon her child.
Lejeune, a Frenchman and devout Catholic, saw himself as a "country doctor," and cared deeply for his patients. A colleague of Lejeune's had long suspected that the cause of Down syndrome might be linked to chromosomes, and asked Lejeune to come and work with children with Down syndrome.

We did setup a Lab for testing in On-Prem Env with Jamf 10.12.0, did everything but we have issue like after Mac Enrolment we need to restart the mac to get create of Jamf.log file. is anything I missed here?
Thanks in Advance.
Posted on 06-14-2019 10:57 AM
I think we need some more info to help you out? How are enrolling? how are installing the OS? Are you deleting the machines after a failed test?
Posted on 06-17-2019 12:02 AM
Hi @gachowski , thanks for the response . Just few days back we had setup this test lab, we are enrolling Mac with URL based ( /enroll ). We have not installed any OS in client Mac as these are new Macs. This issue is not only with one client, I had checked with 3 clients but issue is the same for all. So we are suspecting issue with some settings in server itself but not sure. Please let me know if you need any more details.
Posted on 06-26-2019 01:27 PM
Sorry I didn't follow up right way this is kinda tricky, did you figure out why? My 1st idea was the account on the mac wasn't the only account?
Posted on 06-28-2019 02:10 AM
No @gachowski , still we have this issue. There 2 user accounts are available, with both accounts I have tried but no luck. Even I have tried with other Macs also but issues is the same.
Posted on 06-28-2019 07:12 AM
I would try the setting under "User-Initiated Enrollment" .. are the certs set up like you want? is the management account password match the password rules? I usually start with a short fake user and password for testing.
Also is one of the accounts the root account? Apple the past few OS have had a hard time getting that work correctly. I would leave that un-enable (factory default) while testing.

Simeone forced into rookie back line for Eibar visit
The Atlético manager has only 16 first team players available for Saturday's match and has called up Theo and Nacho Monsalve from Atlético B.
A raft of injuries and suspensions has left Diego Simeone with just 16 first team players for Atlético's home game against Eibar on Saturday (16.00, CET). Juanfran, Diego Godín, Filipe Luis, Stefan Savic, Augusto Fernández and Tiago are all unavailable while Jackson Martínez and Guilherme Siqueira both left the Calderón during the transfer window.
Simeone has been forced to dip into the youth ranks to bolster his defensive options and has called up Nacho Monsalve and Theo Hernández from Atlético B. Monsalve has represented the first team in pre-season and friendly matches and Theo, the younger brother of Lucas Hernández, can play either in the centre of defence or at left back.
Simeone confirmed in his pre-match press conference that Savic has been ruled out of the match with a muscle strain and that his back four against Eibar will consist of Jesús Gámez, José Giménez, Saúl and Lucas, a makeshift line that has never previously played together.
Simeone's starting 11 for the game is likely to be: Oblak; Gámez, Giménez, Saúl, Lucas; Thomas, Gabi, Koke, Carrasco; Griezmann and Correa.
On the bench will be: Moyà, Monsalve, Theo, Kranevitter, Óliver, Fernando Torres and Vietto.

Letter no. 2
Published by MAC on 2004-08-15Letter no. 2
Dear Mark,
Everyone has the right and the responsibility to be concerned about the environment. If, as we seem to agree, corporations now constitute the main threat to global ecosystems, we certainly cannot afford to ignore them. A first step must be to understand the role of corporations in environmental destruction and then expose these problems to the general public. Combined pressure from impacted peoples and communities, citizens, non-governmental organisations and then, hopefully, even governments, can make for change. We need to demand better regulation of runaway industries and encourage the companies themselves to reform their ways. Yes, this may mean talking to these companies directly, across the picket line and in the board room. But engaging in dialogues and partnerships with the companies that are currently trashing the planet has to be done carefully, if it is not to be counterproductive.
* In the first place, such dialogues and partnerships must be carried out in ways that dont exclude those whose rights and livelihoods are directly impacted by the companies operations: no snug deals while outraged indigenous peoples are left out, again.
* Secondly, we mustnt let companies use such dialogues and partnerships to greenwash their overall operations. The planet wont survive if we trade off getting funds for a few nice projects and national parks, in exchange for condoning sacrifice zones and unsustainable development outside them.
* Third, any such dialogues should be preconditioned on the companies agreeing to certain standards and norms as a base line for discussion: international human rights and environmental laws would be a good place to start. Agreeing to no destructive projects in protected areas would be another.
You say there should be no mutual branding but FFIs centenary publication in FIRST the Forum for Decision-makers does just that. There you lavishly offer glossy, green profile to corporate juggernauts like BP, Vodafone, British American Tobacco, ExxonMobil and Rio Tinto. Giving such companies positive spin without at the same time exposing their tragic records of environmental ruin is giving conservation the bad name that, sadly, it increasingly deserves.

This year I've been shooting more digital images, in part because I've figured out how to get Lightroom working on my phone, so I can apply film presets to digital images when I'm out and about. But I feel a bit bad about shooting less film; it's as if I have been spending less time with an old friend. Or a group of friends, in fact. And I want to catch up with them again.
So this summer I'm making an effort not just to shoot more film again, but also to shoot some new kinds of film — or to make some new friends, as it were. My plan is to load three new kinds of film into three quite small 35mm film cameras, and then I can grab the camera (and the film) that I think might work best in a particular situation.
Over the years I've found that familiarity with various kinds of film means I understand how they respond and the sorts of situations and lighting where they will work best. Here, for example, is the sort of situation I think of as a classic "Portra" scene. It does Mediterranean skies so well!
And this is the kind of situation in which I'm glad I have Ektar in my camera, because of the way it responds differently to the light with such fine grain.
And here's a classic Tri-X image. It's perfect for the dark and gloomy days of winter, and I love the character of its grain.
These three are like old friends. But now I'm going to try adding some new friends to our little group, and see how I get along with them. It will probably be a bit awkward to begin with, but the only way to get to know a new type of film is to give it a try. I'll let you know how we got on later in the year!

If only the useless American media and press were half as rude insistent as this woman in demanding answers to really fundamental questions on why this assault on American democracy is happening.
Source: Daily Mail
Sean Spicer was confronted while shopping in an Apple Store on Saturday by a woman who filmed the encounter in which she called Trump a 'fascist' and accused the White House press secretary of racism.
Shree Chauhan, a 33-year-old Indian-American woman who lives in Washington, DC, posted the video in which she walks up to Spicer and begins harassing him as he shops.
She begins by asking Spicer: 'How does it feel to work for a fascist?'Spicer responds: We have a great country' while appearing to try and ignore the woman.
UPDATE: Shree Chauhan has a post at Medium on their encounter, including what she felt was thinly, or not so thinly, veiled racism.
When I confronted Mr. Spicer, I wanted to speak truth to power. It wasn't until hours later that it was revealed to me that Mr. Spicer had said, "such a great country that allows you to be here," to me.
Unlike this administration, I do not believe in "alternative facts". I believe in facts. I do not believe in accusing someone of this level of racism, if in fact it was not.
So I watched the video over and over again. I had other people watch it. I watched it with the sound off so I could watch Mr. Spicer's lips and make sure words match up with the consonants I thought I heard. I watched it with the volume all the way up with my eyes closed.And his words were clear.
"Such a great country that allows you to be here."
That is racism and it is an implied threat. Think about the sheer audacity of Mr. Spicer to say that to my face with a smile, knowing that he that he is being recorded on video and the position of power he holds in our government.

Can someone advise me of how to add borders (wide borders) to Windows in Ubuntu version 14.04. In the past I have used "gnome-tweak-tool". However it doesn't work with version 14.04.
All my windows (especially the many terminal screens I work with) appear to blend as one. It's very hard to tell where one window begin and another end.
Also the title bars are very hard to distinguish between which window is active and with window is inactive.
Thanks in advance for anyone who has a solution of how to customize these Windows (or how to make gnome-tweak-tool work with Ubuntu 14.04).
I tryed activating the Window Decorator feature of CCSM but using that disabled Unity and made the environment unusable.
All about tweaking the Windows in Ubuntu 14.04… setting border width, color, title, etc.

noflag.bmp - I don't like either one of them
scroll.png - It's not centered for me (854x480) but not a problem. Very good idea. Can you make it smaller?
smalldot.bmp - When you die, the deaddot will be directly under it, I guess it's unavoidable because of minimap.
I think the star icon needs to be removed and replaced with something more flashy that'll get someones attention and fits the soldat theme. but that 12x12 resolution really puts a limit on what you can do. I also think the csgo layout for cursor is pretty neat. dot should just say 'ping', less confusing for new players
Quote from: homerofgods on November 11, 2014, 08:39:00 pmnoflag.bmp - I don't like either one of themWhat exactly do you not like? I can't really improve them if I don't know what to improve. To me they seem fine.
Lo[one]r is the star and the flag icon good now?http://i.imgur.com/Sx3XPbr.png
@homerofgods, yeah please commit the changes.I'd like to have the classic graphics as well, so sure go ahead. Could you add the folder priority bugs to the bugtracker so I can look into that at some later point?
The flag itself looks better no doubt, but I'm less optimistic about that stripe being better than the old cross - it doesn't tell you so clearly something is not okay with your flag as the X does.
On a sidenote, I think blue team's color needs to be addressed. It's clearly less visible than red and needs to be changed to #105ADB or something very similar.
I removed the piixelDarkened background (RGB: 51-->41)Lightened the X (RGB: 204-->210)Committing this. (putting it in next release.)I'm also gonna use the new jet.bmp you sentTHANK YOU SO MUCH L[one]R!! IT IS BEAUTIFULWe're done with the GUI

Tiger of Sweden creative director Bryan Conway has wasted no time in reinventing the brand's Swedish essence for a global audience. His first Fall-Winter collection debuted on London Fashion Week's digital platform with a short presentation film, entitled "The Commute", that transports the viewer onto a Stockholm commuter ferry inviting you to partake in the everyday life of the Swedish brand. Tiger of Sweden's first-ever digital collection presentation is accompanied by an online journal giving us a deeper insight into the collection and the mind of Conway himself.
The film, which portrays the collection entitled 'Life' shows the models boarding a commuter ferry in Stockholm for a beautiful and almost French Nouvelle Vague take on a common undertaking in the everyday life of a Stockholmer. This brief synopsis also summarises the collection. The thought process behind it began during a time when Conway and the wider world had more time to reflect on life and the more banal, normal, and usually little things we took for granted. Walking the dog or visiting the grocery store have become bigger and important moments where we view our usual everyday environments through a more magnified and detailed lens. We take joy in the intricacies and differences we hadn't noticed before. What may be normal life to one may be beautiful, new, and exciting to the next and that's how this collection was approached.
"Observations of what is happening around me. Of life and how people are living here. There is the element of being a voyeur in the city in which you reside, just going for a walk and watching life as it unfolds around you." Bryan Conway, Tiger of Sweden Design Director.
Expanding on this idea Conway looked into the work of Stockholm-based photographer Kacper Kasprzyk and admired how he caught these little parts of life. Things that were once mundane and overlooked were now celebrated in his work. His photographs became the framework for the collection and in particular its print story which makes use of the idea of life seen through indirect images like shadows and reflections.
The materials used in the collection have been carefully selected to support the 'life' story of the wearer too. Raw denim, moleskin, waxed cotton, and leather are hero materials that live with you and reflect your everyday life in their patina and wear. On your daily walk you might notice new things every time, from a name scrawled in concrete to a dip in the stone steps caused by a million feet, these materials reflect the same effect, with whatever you do in these garments affecting their appearance over time.
Conway has also taken the brand on a journey towards functionality. In his interview that accompanied the Fall-Winter presentation film, Conway paraphrases a famous Swedish saying, "There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes." This frames the thinking throughout the collection. Waxed cotton rainwear, oversized bucket hats (that actually keep the rain off your head), collars that can be buttoned across the neck and face for wind protection, suits tailored from rugged wool twill for durability, and dress boots molded with water-proof leather and rubber souls all have a foundation in functionality to suit our differing everyday lives however boring, normal or exciting they are.

This post is another in my series on how to address the college application essay prompts from the Coalition App. This year, you have five prompts from which to choose as an anchor for your essay. Each prompts presents its unique possibilities and challenges. Today we will look at the "being a teenager" prompt. This can be a tricky prompt; it asks you to reflect on your own experiences as a teenager and pluck from that one piece of advice to pass on.
What is the hardest part of being a teenager now? What's the best part? What advice would you give a younger sibling or friend (assuming they would listen to you)?
How will you answer this being a teenager prompt?
Being a Teenager
This prompt wants you to evaluate your life experiences—your life as you are living it. Socrates once said something to the effect that "the unexamined life is not worth living." The Coalition Application is asking you to examine your life, to evaluate it, and to share your observations. But at the heart of the essay, you need a story.
Hardest Part/Best Part
From my perspective, it seems difficult to identify both the best and the worst parts of teen life in only 550 words. Therefore, you may decide to focus on either the best or the worst. However, if you want to be sneaky—and perhaps successful in your presentation—you might consider an aspect of teen life that one might consider both the best and the worst. Most parts of our lives have both positive and negative aspects. Can you identify something about your experience as a teenager that can be examined from both angles? Here, again, it is helpful to focus on the story that shows how teenage life can be difficult or great—or both. As with all the other prompts, be sure that whatever you write about is made very personal to you and your own experience. Don't write an observational treatise on the good and the bad of teenage life as you seen it. Put yourself in the middle of your observation.
What's Your Advice?
Again, this prompt seems very broad for the word limit. One might develop a prompt that revolves completely around this idea of "advice" that is not at all connected to the experience of being a teenager. However, to stay focused on your experience as a teen today, and to stick with your evaluation of what is "hardest" and what is "best," you may want to identify the single most important recommendation you might make to a sibling or friend so that they could minimize the hard bits and maximize the best bits. Don't try to be exhaustive with this prompt: the word limit simply will not allow you to be. Instead, give a single, straightforward directive to this sibling or friend. Finally, make sure that this advice emanates from your story: something in that narrative should illustrate how following your guidance would make their lives better.

The homeowners capitalized on all that further height by placing in a sleeping loft. The futons put on classic plaid wool throw pillows, plus orange-striped alpaca by D. The blue-striped coverlets are from Coyuchi, the chevron runner by Madeline Weinrib. Dated carpet and furniture made this living room really feel darkish. The 5 kids of the Higgins household, aged 14–21, filed a lawsuit towards ABC after they had been evicted by a family that had taken them in earlier than the present came to renovate the family's home. The five children "say that the producers took advantage of the family's exhausting-luck story and promised them new cars and other prizes to persuade them to participate in the program", according to the LA Times.
The furniture was just too massive and puffy for the area. A new white sideboard, some coastal artwork, and plenty of family photos have been the proper finishing touches to this room. Perfect for dinner gatherings and Easter celebrations, you'll be able to easily rework your dining area by sticking a statement-worthy runner in the course of your table. If you are afraid that colored cabinets will overwhelm your small kitchen house, paint just the decrease cabinets a bold color and maintain the remainder impartial. Once the climate warms up, it's time to put your straw hats to use, proper? Keep them inside arm's reach by making your collection a part of your house's decor.

The Boeing Company
Master of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering (Spring 2018)
Andrew Lamore recently graduated with a Master of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering (M.Eng.ME). We asked him to reflect on his experience in the program, why he chose Illinois, and how his degree is serving him in his career.
Where do you currently work, and what is your position?
I work for Boeing as a Mechanical Design and Structural Analysis Engineer
How does your Master of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering (M.Eng.ME) help you in your current position?
The M.Eng program trained me to understand complex problems and deliver effective solutions.
What made you decide to pursue an M.Eng in Mechanical Engineering?
I pursued the M.Eng.ME because of the career path flexibility. The engineering and professional development at Illinois prepared me to execute daily action items at Boeing. I have had opportunities to work in labs, perform design analysis, and assist suppliers with their logistics. I would not have had these experiences without the M.Eng degree.
Did you consider other institutions for the program, and why did you choose Illinois?
I considered staying at Virginia Tech since I received my BS in Mechanical Engineering. I choose Illinois because of the opportunities to expand my network with successful students and professors.
What skills do engineering leaders need today? How can students in professional master's programs acquire those skills?
I believe communication is the most important skill to have as an engineer. Whether it is talking to your boss about your execution plan or reading test procedures and results, clear communication drives progress. M.Eng.ME students can acquire this by writing and presenting complex topics, while their peers and professors evaluate their performance.
Do you have anything else you'd like to add?
I highly recommend taking courses from Dr. Miljkovic. He is one of the most personable and thought-provoking professors I have had.
To speak with an advisor about any of the college's Master of Engineering degrees, contact the staff at the Center for Professional and Executive Training and Education.

Last week, in part I of our blog on Safety in Construction, we talked about identifying potential industry-related hazards and taking preventative steps will help reduce and potentially eliminate some of the risks and the resulting accidents and injuries. Our previous discussion included steps that need to happen before a worker's first day onsite. Today we move on to on-the-job preventative measures, as well as the significance of the employer-employee relationship.
On the Job:
Awareness: Encourage your workers to be constantly aware of their surroundings. When workers remain alert to potential hazards and are trained to respond appropriately, the number of accidents and injuries are reduced.
Equipment safety: Establish procedures for keeping all equipment in prime condition. Ensure that only properly trained and certified (when required) employees have clearance to operate the equipment.
Pay attention to surroundings: From trees and powerlines above to slick surfaces, changing terrains and holes beneath, being cognizant of these potential dangers and adjusting accordingly is critical.
Respect the weather: Use common-sense regarding changing weather conditions. It's obvious, of course, to get off the steel grid of high rise under construction when a storm is approaching, but it's easy to ignore potential issues when the weather is seemingly wonderful. Taking breaks from the heat, staying hydrated, and using sunscreen are equally important. Encourage employees to be aware of symptoms within themselves and their coworkers.
Build Relationship:
An open-door policy and commitment to a relationship of trust with your employees is key to ongoing job-site safety.
Invite feedback: Encourage construction workers to speak up when they notice equipment that needs repaired or other conditions with potential hazards, as well as actions that could cause an accident. Give them the authority to call an emergency stop of work in progress when a high-risk situation arises.
Preach and practice: Constantly communicate the safety priorities and guidelines to all employees from entry-level up. Constantly practice what you preach – in your actions and by enforcing safety policies. Blatant disregard for safety guidelines should invoke an immediate response.
In summary:
Construction work is inherently dangerous. In fact, it's an industry that has one of the highest fatality rates for workers but making safety a top priority will make a difference. Establishing and enforcing critical safety standards, proper training, maintaining equipment, and ensuring proper use of personal protective equipment will make a significant difference.
At GSI, a veteran-owned company, we strive to create a supportive, transparent, and safety-conscious working environment where every employee, individually and collectively, can dedicate himself or herself to providing our clients with exceptional workmanship, extraordinary service, and professional integrity. We stand behind our policy of safety without compromise, including offering on-staff OSHA instructors. If you're seeking safety-conscious employees, look no farther. Contact us today.

Brewery – Southern Tier
Beer – Raspberry White
Style – Fruited Wheat
Over the years we've fine-tuned our house brew into a beautifully crisp & slightly sweet wheat beer brewed with malted barley, unmalted wheat & raspberry puree. Perfectly balanced, light bodied & Raspberry tart, raspberry white is ready to take on the world one bottle at a time.
Southern Tier's Raspberry White didn't see a wide distribution for a long time. It wasn't until the low murmur of fans clamoring for it to see a wider reach turned into a dull roar that Southern Tier was forced to meet that demand.
The beer now reaches far and wide seasonally in January in six packs of 12oz bottles, so if you're a fan of fruited wheat beers, you can snag some of your own to enjoy at home.
My Thoughts On Southern Tier Raspberry White
This looks great poured into a glass. It's got a hazy yellow-orange body with a big bright white head perched on top of the glass.
Aromas are all about the Raspberry, with a sweet berry note that leaps from the glass with no abandon.
Flavors are a big slap of sweet, and tart raspberry. The tartness cuts through the heavy wheat body to make this seem very nice and drinkable, and the lower 4.8% ABV leaves you able to drink a few of them to really make up your mind. Mine? Made up pretty fast… I love it.

Everyone wants to rest thoughts and their soul through meditation. In this free guided meditation we will teach you "How To Rest Your Thoughts And See Your Soul Meditation?"
Do you come across below questions
- Are you tired with your thoughts?
- Do they stress you?
- Do you feel helpless to stop them?
- Do you make desperate efforts to remove negative thoughts but they come back with double force?
- Do you wish so to when will your thought process be light that it doesn't affect you?
Let me clear some air.
Thoughts are an integral part of our mental life and they will always stay.
They help us to think, find solutions, to create what we want. So why do they bother us? The reason behind it is that when we do not provide answers to our mind and we let the loops hanging in the mind then the mind keeps on checking those hangings by creating thoughts about them. Thus,
- First thing that we should do to stop overthinking is to give answers to our mind.
- Secondly, we should not get attach to the thoughts. Thoughts come and go, that is their nature but when we get attached to them they draw power from us which actually drains us . This is the reason why thoughts can be energy suckers.
- Thirdly, we should become observer of our thoughts to slow down their speed.
- Lastly, when we master this technique of being a spectator of our thoughts slowly and gradually we may experience thoughtless state.
In this thoughtless state you may experience inner peace, inner joy, bliss, equanimity, happiness and oneness.
Here is the meditation to start your experience of thoughtless state.
