Treatments included
- Underwater Jet Massage
The treatment is given in a bath at a temperature of 35-37°C. A powerful, pressurised (0.5 – 2.0 atm) jet of water is released through a hose underwater and directed manually by the therapist to the main muscle groups from a distance of between 10 and 15 cm and at an angle, in strokes. By varying the distance and angle, it is possible to change the intensity of the water jet pressure on the body. The aim of this deep massage is to release stiffness in the muscles and connective tissues and to partially release the joints. It is also probably one of the most effective spa treatments for relaxation available.
- Interference
In this treatment, different electrical pads at a medium frequency are placed onto the body together with a small vacuum. The effect is one of a micro-massage on the damaged tissue. Depending on the pre-set frequency, the muscles can be stimulated to a so-called muscle gymnastic condition, or alternatively produce relaxation in the muscle tone to have an analgesic effect. The treatment has two advantages: firstly, it reduces pain, and secondly, the micro-massage improves the circulation and flow of oxygen to the tissue, resulting in a healing effect.
- Four Cell Galvanic Bath
This treatment is especially beneficial for rheumatoid arthritis. The forearms and lower limbs are placed into water trays at a temperature of 34°C. Water and a gentle electrical current are the components of this treatment, and an electric current is passed through these particular body parts. Because only the limbs of the body are immersed in water, the electric current in the four-cell bath can be given at a stronger intensity that the full galvanic bath (See: Galvanic Bath). The treatment also has the benefit of improving circulation.
- Diadynamic Stimulus Current Therapy
This treatment uses a mixture of electric currents, (both galvanic and impulse), which have an inhibitory or facilitatory effect, depending on the frequency, intensity and other parameters. The result is both pain relief and an improvement in circulation. In general, the treatment is prescribed for conditions such as sprains, bruises, oedemas, joint and spine deterioration and disc degeneration.
- Short Waves / High Frequency
The high frequency waves emitted by the device are converted into heat in the body. They warm the affected tissue, and improve circulation and blood flow to the tissue. The treatment reduces inflammation, increases hyperaemia, and has a regenerating effect, which beneficially relieves the uncomfortable symptoms associated with inflammation. In all cases, we offer this treatment to our guests according to doctor's prescription.
- Mud Pack
The mud used at our hotels comes from the famous Hévíz thermal spring in Hungary, and from sediment collected by the hot springs of the river Vág in Piešťany in Slovakia. The therapeutic mud has a similar effect to that of the medicinal waters. The most characteristic feature of mud is its good heat storage and heat dissipation capacity. Warmth dilates the blood vessels and accelerates the metabolism. As a consequence, the treatment eases chronic inflammations. Warmth also relaxes the muscles and tendons and eases cramps. Of the mineral components of mud, iodine and bromine have a loosening effect, calcium, bromine and magnesium have a relaxing effect and sulphur boosts local metabolism. The temperature of the mud pack is usually 38-42°C, but the doctor can specify a lower temperature. The mud pack is applied on the body areas and joints prescribed by the doctor. The body is then wrapped into an insulating sheet. After 20 minutes, the mud is washed off, which at some hotels can be followed by a 15-minute dry body pack, but at least 15 minutes of rest is definitely recommended. The treatment eases the swelling of joints, muscular tension, and improves the nutrient supply of cartilages, connective tissue and spinal discs. Furthermore, it also strengthens the body's anti-inflammatory and immune processes. The mud can also be applied partially (see: Partial mud pack). In Sovata, Romania, the mud is extracted from Bear Lake (Lacu Ursu) (see Balneotherapy: Salt bath) and is used in the same way. In addition to musculoskeletal disorders, the salty mud is also suitable for the treatment of certain skin disorders and gynecological diseases (see: Gynecological mud/peat therapy treatment).

Interview with Fro Pro
How long have you been planning a food business?
Fro Po evolved from a simple idea to a viable business over the course of approximately 9 months. Throughout the initial planning period we created our business plan and conducted both product research and development.
What made you want to start a business in the food industry (what problems are you solving or niche are you filling)?
There were multiple factors involved in the decision to begin a food manufacturing business. Without either of us having any prior experience in the industry, it was quite a risk, however, we felt that there was a definitive gap in the breakfast market, especially considering the continual increase in demand for ready-to-eat convenience breakfast products.
Are you a sole business owner, family run business or partnership?
Our business operates as a partnership.
What kind of food do you make?
Fro Po produces all natural, ready-to-eat, porridge. Containing no artificial additives, we aim to provide a convenient breakfast product that remains as close as possible to how Mother Nature intended it to be.
Who is your target market?
Our target market consists of both males and females, between 18-55 years of age that are health-conscious but time-poor. Whether it be students, professionals or busy parents, our product is designed to allow individuals to enjoy a comforting, healthy breakfast that they don't have time to make themselves.
How do you sell your product?
Our product is sold through retail outlets, such as supermarkets and delis.
At what point did you start using a commercial kitchen?
We moved into a commercial kitchen space while in the final stages of product development, as we felt it was important to understand how to upscale our production before attempting to produce on a larger scale
What benefits have you discovered to using a kitchen incubator?
The benefits of using a kitchen incubator have ranged from not having to outlay the initial cost of setting up a HACCP approved commercial kitchen, alongside receiving support and advice from people in the industry
How do you plan to grow your business in the next 12 months?
Plans for 2015 include increasing our exposure to the general public, through both an increased number of stockists and a greater presence through social media and other marketing avenues. We also aim to branch out into commercial supply.

Note: how to change the current view from a command
In an application with more than one view it should be possible for a command to change the current view. For example, a LoginUser command should be able to hide the login form view and show another view.
This is achieved by having a currentView public property in the AppModelLocator class. The view container can then bind to this property. If a command changes the property, then the selected view changes. For example, in AppModelLocator:
public static const INITIAL_VIEW : Number = 0;
public static const ALTERNATIVE_VIEW : Number = 1;
public var currentView : Number = INITIAL_VIEW; And the ViewStack container in Main.MXML contains the possible views (in the order corresponding to the constants) and is bound to model.currentView:
<mx:ViewStack width="100%" paddingBottom="10" paddingTop="10" resizeToContent="true" selectedIndex="{model.currentView}">
<view:InitialView />
<view:AlternativeView />
</mx:ViewStack> So changing model.currentView to AppModelLocator..ALTERNATIVE_VIEW switches to the second view.

How we dress reveals some things about ourselves – the things we like, our feelings at the present moment, what we're up to for the day. Even in this tiny red dot, we see a diversity in the fashion palates of Muslimahs. Here are 5 tastes that you and I would commonly spot while we're walking around outside.
5 Different Fashion Tastes of Muslimah in Singapore You Can Easily Identify With
- Vintage
Source: rougeandruche.com
Anything that is vintage takes us back to the past when Sandy and Danny were household names before Troy and Gabriella took their places. This includes high-waisted pants, blouses which are slightly loose and baggy, flare skirts and dresses, and big belts. I am inclined to say that vintage colours tilt towards the sides of pastel and neutral – nothing too striking. With a fine balance between looking casual and formal, there's a certain kind of elegance and charm that I find in vintage clothing J
- Lepak
Source: rougeandruche.com
Relax, chill, lazy – lepak captures the essences of these characteristics succinctly all at once. I'm a big fan of lepak fashion because it's comfortable to be dressed in a long-sleeved shirt together with a pair of harem pants, batik pants, or overalls. But I'm amused at how much effort it actually takes to look the part without looking sloppy or looking like I literally just got out of bed!
- Street
Source: beautifulandmodest.tumblr.com
Ahh… these are the kinds of looks that you will probably not see on the runway but carry with them a spirit of confidence in simplicity. I think an outerwear, especially a denim jacket, paired with pair of fitting pants always does the trick. Street styles are a mix-and-match of sorts, and it's amazing to see the variety of combinations that Muslimahs in Singapore along come up with!
- Sophisticated
Source: Langston Hues
And then we have the kinds of looks that might actually end up on a Fashion Week model – those that involve the careful deliberation of pairing a simple long skirt together with a patterned blouse and a pair of heels or pumps. You'd see this classy look worn by women who seem to be on their way to a an important meeting… or perhaps they just have a dinner to attend with their significant other 😉
- Girly
Source: shellalaztha.blogspot.com
Sometimes I wake up in the morning, and I feel like wrapping myself in shades of pink and yellow. The girly look is almost always accompanied by anything floral – a floral skirt, a floral dress or a floral blouse. While any pair of shoes would complete the look, I would say that a pair of shiny gold or silver sandals gives it an extra edge. This look brings with it an element of youthfulness and quiet poise J
Which of these 5 fashion tastes do you identify with most?

For episode 25 we had to bring back our resident hoops expert and beloved summer intern Big Daddy Duncan. We talk team over/under's, give some very premature predictions and answer some "most likely to" questions, among many fun NBA topics!!! Basketball!!!

Scaling Agile Ain't Easy, But It's Necessary For Better Project Management
Chances are, you're already familiar with the basic concept of Agile project management: a small team works in time-boxed sprints, frequently demoing features and integrating customer feedback, to iteratively deliver a customer-centric end result. Since its origins in software development nearly two decades ago, Agile has been embraced by companies big and small in a wide range of industries and applications. To its adherents, Agile is much more than a methodology: it's a guiding set of principles and values. Some have embraced Agile so wholeheartedly, they rock Agile t-shirts, hats, and even tattoos.
But scaling Agile for larger projects and larger organizations doesn't inspire clever swag or inked dedication. To make it work, you'll need to build in additional roles and structures to facilitate coordination across multiple teams while also maintaining the flexibility that's core to Agile. That's a tall order. There are frameworks to scale Agile, but they can be intimidating at first glance.
Why Agile Must Scale for Large Projects
To understand why organizations need to scale Agile for larger projects and what that might look like, let's start with a simple hypothetical. Let's suppose you are a home owner and your project is "home improvement." If the project is simple—you just want to replace the floors—it could be handled by one Agile team of flooring experts. The foreman is the Scrum Master, who keeps the team on track and is responsible for solving problems. The team works in sprints and demos progress at major intervals to make sure you're happy.
But as any home owner knows, home improvement is rarely simple. Let's say your home improvement project involves replacing the floors, replacing the windows, repairing siding, and remodeling the kitchen. Now, you have a cross-functional project requiring multiple teams with different skillsets. You still want the teams to be Agile. You want them to demo working features and incorporate your feedback. You don't want to burden them with rigid schedules or unnecessary meetings that just drive up costs.
But if you unleash all the teams to work independently, you're bound to run into problems and waste. The kitchen team might drop a slab of granite on your newly-installed floors, the siding folks might end up twiddling their thumbs (on your dime) while they wait for the window people to finish up, or the teams might independently purchase supplies that should have been bought in bulk.
That's not smart or cost-effective, and that's why you hire a general contractor. The contractor coordinates the teams, checks in on the work, and provides you with updates and opportunities to give feedback. Simply put, to deliver a large and complex project like this, you need another role and some structure to make sure you get an end result that's good for you and your wallet.
Key Scaled Agile Concepts
The home improvement hypothetical can help us understand the core concepts of the Scaled Agile Framework® (SAFe®), one of the most popular approaches for scaling Agile. At the team level, SAFe is just like Agile Scrum. Each team (the flooring team, window team, etc.) has a Scrum Master (foreman) and works in sprints. At the program level, SAFe introduces additional structures:
- Agile Release Train (ART): a team of teams working on the same project (your flooring team, window team, siding team, and kitchen team)
- Release Train Engineer (RTE): a role that coordinates the ART (your general contractor)
- Potentially Shippable Increment (PSI): a time-boxed project chunk, typically five sprints long
With SAFe, a project begins with a meeting of the ART to identify what features they can deliver in a PSI as well as any interdependencies or potential complications. Think of this as the contractor and teams meeting to define what parts of the home improvement project they can deliver by a deadline. Then, the teams break out and start to work on their parts of the project.
Every week, the RTE and Scrum Masters (the general contractor and foremen) meet to discuss progress, mitigate problems, and identify interdependencies. At the end of the PSI, the ART has a "hardening sprint" where all members of the ART join together to demo features, verify that they're meeting objectives, identify continuous improvement opportunities, and plan the next PSI.
It Can Be Done
Some Agile purists say that scaling Agile doesn't work, but the proof is in the pudding. Thousands of organizations—even massive companies and government entities—have successfully scaled Agile, and they're seeing benefits in time-to-market, defect reduction, productivity, and employee engagement. To learn more about SAFe and other flexible project management methodologies, read our whitepaper, Introduction to Flexible Project Management.Tweet

Posted on March 25, 2017 by Kristin Nelson
An unfamiliar subject line on the monitor read: A confluence of moments.
As representatives of Community Foundation Sonoma County, many of our inboxes have a rich archive of eloquently titled emails that tug at the heartstrings, pique our curiosity, or both. However, this particular message came to us from Taya Levine, a member of our Healdsburg Forever Board writing from Amman, Jordan. In a beautiful statement that is impossible to convey secondhand, she shared an article that prompted her reflection on current events and the recent International Day of Women elevating her attention to the power of women in setting the tone in our society. This article by The World Post, titled – 'Strong Women Cannot be Shaken': South Sudan's Refugee Sisterhood – illustrate dynamics around the world that demand our continued presence.
Opia Joyce, who is a women's affairs leader in Boroli (one of 18 refugee settlements in Uganda's Adjumani District) is the focal point of the article along with other female leaders and refugee women in Uganda who have become warriors for peace. Over 1 million people have fled to Uganda from South Sudan since December 2013, when political power struggles erupted into civil war. The majority of these refuges are women and children who have lost the men in their lives to war.
The large numbers arriving from South Sudan are testing the limits of what is possible. Uganda's refugee policy is designed to help refugees become self-reliant, but in reality many are hungry and so are their children. Drought during the last growing season led to failed harvests, and food rations last year were cut in half for many refugees. In late February, the U.N. declared a famine in parts of South Sudan, and refugee women and their families continue to pour into Uganda in a last ditch effort to survive. More people keep arriving in Uganda while calls for funding from the international community go unanswered.
Women in the Ugandan refugee settlements often now rely on each other more than they do on foreign aid or humanitarian support. They are joining together to build a different kind of support system. "These women have energy. They're the ones who take all responsibility of the house," Joyce said. Joyce's work (aside from raising 14 children) is to band the women together and help them persevere, despite food ration cuts and limited aid. "Women who are strong, cannot be shaken," Joyce said. "The good thing is that God created me as a woman."
Our Board member was in South Sudan in 2013 and departed the day before the civil war erupted anew. This is the ripple of her digital wave, reminding us of the one degree of separation between each of us and women like Joyce and the nearly 1 in 100 people worldwide now displaced from their homes (Pew Research). The awe-inspiring resilience of these words are striking -"Women who are strong, cannot be shaken," Joyce said. "The good thing is that God created me as a woman." In the words of Ms. Levine: Our collective ability to call on our own resiliency, and resourcefulness, in support of and collaboration with each other feels more important than ever.

Goldberg On Wrestling Again After WWE Survivor Series, Stephanie McMahon Note, NXT Tapings Tonight
Former welterweight king Georges St. Pierre is joining forces with four other UFC stars to launch the Mixed Martial Arts Athletes Association (MMAAA) in hopes of securing better treatment for both past and present UFC fighters.
Cain Velasquez is no stranger to going under the knife, as a number of ailments and subsequent surgeries have sidelined the former UFC heavyweight champion over the years.
It's kung-fu versus taekwondo as AiAi faces up against two of Japan's best Chun-Li players, HORI|Sako and HM|Go1 in these intense FT2 Street Fighter V Ranked sets. Sako and GO1 bring their unique Chuns out to play, making for some interesting clashes with AiAi–and since Juri is not exactly a top tier character, the way AiAi holds his own against Sako's and GO1's Chun-Lis is impressive to say the least.
Whether you main Chun-Li or Juri, there is much that can be absorbed by watching these three matches.

Most Guilty Gear fans are aware that the game contains many references to hard rock and metal music, presented in various aspects throughout the series. This is due to Guilty Gear's creator Daisuke Ishiwatari's love and extensive knowledge of the genres, particularly of bands from Europe and North America. This fusion of music and fighting game culture is one of the many things that makes the Guilty Gear series unique.
In an impressive accumulation of details and history, HurtboxTV pinpoints over 120 instances where a particular band, artist, album or song is paid homage in Guilty Gear. Though names like Slash, Slayer, and Axl might stand out to any average music fan, it would take an amateur music historian to have caught all of these.
How many hard rock and metal references can you name in Guilty Gear? Check out HurtboxTV's video and see if he got them all.

Philip Hammond says Britain will NOT slash taxes and regulations in bid to undercut its EU rivals after Brexit
The Chancellor said Britain's model will stay "recognisably European"
CHANCELLOR Philip Hammond has said Britain won't cut taxes and regulations to create a Singapore-style low tax economy if it does not get the Brexit deal it wants.
He told French newspaper Le Monde that Britain's economic, social and cultural model would stay "recognisably European".
most read in politics
He said: "I often hear it said that the UK is considering participating in unfair competition in regulation and tax.
"That is neither our plan nor our vision for the future. The amount of tax we raise as a percentage of our GDP puts us right in the middle of the pack.
"We don't want that to change, even after we've left the EU.
"I would expect us to remain a country with a social, economic and cultural model that is recognisably European."
Meanwhile Boris Johnson has branded suggestions he is set to quit as Foreign Secretary over Brexit as "lies" after Cabinet tensions on EU withdrawal broke into the open.
Mr Johnson attacked Liberal Democrat leader Sir Vince Cable after he referred to rumours the Foreign Secretary may resign as a Cabinet rift emerged over whether a three-year post-Brexit transitional scheme for migrants would come into force.
A spokesman for Mr Johnson said: "Vince Cable is making his stuff up and maybe he should take more time to think up some policies rather than wasting his time on peddling lies."

Buying Real Instagram Followers Even Possible?
This completely depends on what you define as buying as there are three ways to buy Instagram followers and two of them are probably things you haven't thought of before but let's start with the one method that most people think of when they think about buying followers on Instagram.
Buying Instagram Followers from Online Vendors
This is the most illegitimate way to buy followers and/or grow your account. People that want to make money online are often a little lazy and instead of growing their social channels they decide its' easier to just set up a website and sell followers and so on for other platforms. All you need to do is build a website and rank it in Google for search terms like best Instagram bots. FredHarrington.com is a great example of that as they are ranking first for nearly every Instagram related search term.
What sets Fred Harrington apart from the rest is that they don't directly sell those bots but review them instead, weeding out the crap so to say and when you follow this link I just added you will see that they question the phenomenon of buying user engagement themselves, which is a good sign.
Buying Through Paying Micro Influencers
It's a very indirect way of buying likes and followers but it works like gangbusters and you are almost guaranteed to get real likes and followers. Sure you need to do a little bit of research to avoid the scammers with fake profiles but once you got that under control this is probably the most legitimate and inexpensive way to buy followers.
In case you think, whoa this is getting much too expensive you have to think again. As anyone ever told you it's easy to make money from Instagram? No not that I see, and people don't even ask this question and believe me when I say I've read dozens of guides on Instagram. Making money is never a topic that gets discussed because it's extremely difficult to do so. Because of that, you can accomplish much with small amounts like 25-50 dollars.
Advertising = Buying
You can buy ads on Instagram through Facebook's advertising console but this gets expensive real quick. When I advertise on Facebook itself I always disable my ads getting shown on Instagram because their users are rather worthless for my commercial services.
Still, it's a way of buying followers directly but at such cost that it makes you think twice. Everyone that ever tried it knows what I'm talking about.

So what can people do? Experts I asked advised paying close attention to signals of underlying financial connections, both on websites and social media posts and in messaging from seemingly benign health groups. Matthew McCoy, the medical ethics professor, says people should be vigilant if an organization's funding sources and board members are obscured, or "if the life cycle of a group seems to perfectly match the push for FDA approval for a drug."
It's valuable advice. But it puts on the onus on patients, who shouldn't have to know better.
This reminds me of the argument as to whether it is unethical to work at Google? For example, is an engineer for Docs impacted by wider choices as AI investing in the military or the development of a modified search engine for China? It would seem that from the response of workers that they are inadvertently.
I wonder if rather than trying to identify the parts in isolation, that we are better considering the various actors? I really enjoyed this breakdown of Latour's work in this regard. For example, consider this description:
Gravity, he has argued time and again, was created and made visible by the labor and expertise of scientists, the government funding that paid for their education, the electricity that powered up the sluggish computer, the truck that transported the gravimeter to the mountaintop, the geophysicists who translated its readings into calculations and legible diagrams, and so on. Without this network, the invisible waves would remain lost to our senses.source
Not sure what this looks like in regards to Big Pharma, however I think that James Bridle's book helps extend this conversation, especially with his discussion of Eroom's Law:
Over the past sixty years, despite the huge growth of the pharmacological industry, and the concomitant investment in drug discovery, the rate at which new drugs are made available has actually fallen when compared to the amount of money spent on research – and it has fallen consistently and measurably.

Meet our #consciouslystylish Eco Blogger Kaméa Chayne
Eco Creative Director and the author of Thrive, Kaméa Chayne sheds light on what drew her to conscious fashion.
When I made the connection that we cannot be healthy without clean water, clean air, and biodiversity on our planet, I realized that sustainability and wellness have to go hand in hand, and that species going extinct in the wild, and waters getting polluted across the globe have very real impacts and implications for me.
After reading Ecologist Guide to Fashion by Ruth Styles during my college years, which shed light on how toxic and wasteful the fashion industry is, I realized that I shouldn't be proud of being a "fashionista" dependent on cheap, trendy clothes from fast fashion brands, and that unbelievably cheap price tags on a product often means unaccounted for costs – for the makers and the environment – behind the scenes.
As a problem solver (as I believe most people are), I started digging deeper. I realized by asking more questions before making my fashion decisions to better understand the impacts of my choices, I was championing what's called "Conscious Fashion" – a movement I've been a part of ever since.

// Breakfast // I actually managed to get up early on Wednesday and eat something that wasn't a liquid breakfast, wow shock horror that is really a big achievement for me as my general life motto is "why get up and make breakfast when you can sleep in that little bit longer". I know, I know I am going to go places in life with that one!! Okay so back to breakfast, I just had 2 slices of toast with half a avocado, sliced tomato and pepper. I actually have a bit of a avocado addiction at the moment, they are sooooo good that I am going through them like crazy which isn't too great on the ol' waste or the ol' purse strings.
// Morning Snack //Of course no morning is complete with out a large soy chai latte, I really need to get a hold of myself. I managed to kick my morning coffee's but it seems like I have now just replaced them with warm soy milk and sugar!!! Oh well I am not ready to break this vice just yet.
// Lunch // So the local health food shop makes these amazing raw vegan cranberry oat fudge bars, they are absolutely the most amazing thing I have ever eat. I have no idea how they make them and I really want to learn because they are super expensive and tiny however I don't want to learn how to make them at the same time because I know they are full of coconut and I know I would make them and eat them far to often.
// Dinner //I came home from work and I was feeling super tired and just run down. The last thing I felt like doing was standing in the kitchen for ages cooking dinner, plus Dylan was out at indoor soccer so I was the only one eating. I decided to be super lazy and super endulgent so I made a big bowl of chocolate nice cream. I will be posting a recipe really soon, its super easy to make just frozen banana's, cocoa powder and Tbsp of vanilla flavoured soy milk. A easy dinner which feed my sweetness cravings.
Well that was all for Wednesday, I did eat a few vitamin C tablets in bed whilst reading, I am slightly addicted to vitamin C tablets there just so tasty.
What was your WIAW like?Do you have any suggestions?

Immigration Study Finds Enforcement Has Undermined Workers' Rights
Labor Groups Issue Blueprint to Restore Balance Between Immigration Enforcement and Labor Rights
WASHINGTON - A comprehensive report issued today by the AFL-CIO, American Rights
at Work and the National Employment Law Project finds that the federal
government's immigration enforcement in recent years – including a
heavy reliance on raids and often inadequately trained enforcement
agents – has severely undermined efforts to protect workers' rights, to
the detriment of immigrant and native-born workers alike. Drawing on
several case studies from across the country, the report offers an
unprecedented analysis of how the division between labor and
immigration enforcement has eroded, and a blueprint for how the new
administration and federal agencies can restore the balance. The
authors, joined by a group of affected immigrant workers, presented
their findings and recommendations today at a conference at AFL-CIO
"The balance between worksite immigration enforcement and labor
standards enforcement must be recalibrated," argued co-author Rebecca
Smith of the National Employment Law Project. "ICE's failure to uphold
the firewall between enforcement of immigration laws and enforcement of
labor laws has undercut both policies. Employers have been encouraged
to violate wage and hour laws, OSHA requirements, and labor laws that
protect collective bargaining rights. All workers, both immigrant and
native born, are suffering from depressed core labor standards as a
ICED Out: How Immigration Enforcement Has Interfered with Workers' Rights builds on a growing body of research that
points to a decline in workplace protections – and details how the
dramatic increase in immigration enforcement agents, arrests and
prosecutions of immigrants in the U.S. has repeatedly taken precedence
over labor law enforcement. Drawing on case studies from across the
country – including California, Texas, Tennessee, Kansas, Iowa, Rhode
Island, Florida and Oregon – the report examines a series of alarming
incidents between 2005 and 2008 in which Immigration and Customs
Enforcement (ICE), a division of the Department of Homeland Security,
(1) taken enforcement action at the behest of employers, their surrogates, and other police agencies;
(2) conducted immigration-focused surveillance in the midst of labor disputes;
(3) conducted enforcement action with full knowledge of an ongoing labor dispute;
(4) engaged in subterfuge to carry out enforcement actions; and
(5) directly interfered with the administration of justice by arresting workers on the courthouse steps.
In 2008, the report notes, ICE made 6,287 (5,184 administrative;
1,103 criminal) arrests for immigration offenses at workplaces, and
only a small fraction of its arrests (2.1 percent) were of employers or
employers' agents. In August 2009, ICE reported having enrolled 63
agencies and trained 840 officers in a program to assist in identifying
undocumented immigrants. However, the GAO recently criticized ICE for
inadequate oversight and training under the program, and it has
frequently been cited as contributing to racial profiling.
"Focusing on raids and other types of immigration enforcement
without regard to enforcement of labor and employment laws does not
address what is really sustaining illegal immigration—the virtually
unfettered ability of employers to exploit immigrant workers
economically," said Ana Avendaño of the AFL-CIO organization, a
co-author of the report.
Our Summer Campaign Is Underway
Support Common Dreams Today
Independent News and Views Putting People Over Profit
In 1998, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the then-named
U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS, now ICE) and the U.S.
Department of Labor established a firewall between immigration and
labor law enforcement, with the purpose of reducing economic incentives
for hiring unauthorized workers, limiting abusive treatment of workers,
and promoting jobs for legal, authorized U.S. workers.
The MOU provides guidelines for when cooperation between workplace
and immigration enforcement agencies is appropriate, and when it is
not. For example, when workers complain about wage and hour violations,
the MOU stipulates that DOL should not conduct reviews of work
authorizations or inquire about the immigration status of complainants.
"Simply put, there needs to be a better balance of communication
between immigration and labor agencies, and it starts with heeding the
policy that already exists, but is being ignored. There is a serious
impact for the economy and for workers – both native and immigrant –
when immigration enforcement overshadows the equally important goal of
protecting labor rights," co-author Julie Martinez Ortega of American
Rights at Work said.
At today's conference Josue Diaz, an immigrant worker who was
recruited from a day laborer corner in New Orleans to work on
reconstruction efforts in Texas after Hurricanes Ike, shared his
personal story. "We were forced to live in tents in an isolated labor
camp at an abandoned oil refinery. We were made to work in toxic
conditions without safety equipment. We were subjected racist and
dehumanizing treatment…When we protested the discrimination and illegal
treatment, our employer…called local police and ICE. We were arrested
immediately. Instead of enforcing our labor rights against the
company, the police and ICE tried to turn us into criminals."

recommendations for the Obama administration and several federal
agencies on how to restore the proper balance between immigration and
labor law enforcement, visit:

Catholic Church may take harder line on annulments
The Catholic Church is starting to reevaluate the strictness of the annulment process. With the high divorce rate in the United States the number of Catholics requesting annulments has increased as well. What concerns the Catholic Church especially in the United States is that the two thirds of the annulments that are given out by the Church are being given out in the United States where the Catholic population makes up only six percent of the total Catholic population. The concern that the Church has on the issue of annulments is a valid concern since that over half of the annulments of the whole Church are being given out to such a small fraction of the total Catholic population. The fact of the matter is that I believe the Church should reevaluate when it gives out annulments because the sacrament of marriage is something that should be treated seriously and it needs to work with couples that are looking to get an annulment to see whether or not there are ways to reconcile. I understand there are obvious cases where annulment is necessary such as cases of abuse or where there is harm to both parties. The Church needs to continue to reassert the seriousness of the commitment of marriage in a society where marriage is treated as something not necessarily permanent.

The heavy storm near the North Cape made us decide not to go to the Lofoten. A pity because we had seen many photos about the beautiful landscape, but it was safer to go through Finland and Sweden to Narvik. From there we could continue our trip along the Norwegian coast.
There were many road construction works between Enontekio and Kiruna, so travelling went slow. Furthermore the landscape wasn't very spectacular until we reached Abisko National Park. The view over the lake with the snow on the mountains in the far distance was nice. We planned to stay on a campsite in Abisko, but unfortunately we couldn't find the campsite. Finally we stayed at a parking lot near a restaurant along the road. First time that we didn't stay on a campsite.
The days after we found our way southwards along the Norwegian coast. Mainly driving over E6. Despite that this is the main road from south to north Norway, it sometimes is interrupted by water which has to be crossed by ferry.
Crossing the Arctic Circle in Norway isn't commercial as in Finland near Rovaniemi. Not a complete village with many souvenir shops. But only one building, the Polarsirkelsenteret, a row of sculptures and a hill with many towers made of rocks. A nice place to make a short stop.
The landscape along the Norwegian coast is rough. Mainly mountains with fjords. The views over the water are great, despite that we mostly had cloudy and rainy weather. Furthermore rocky areas with forests.
Near Grong we visited Namsen Laksakvarium. Here also was a fish ladder, just like we saw in Sweden near Stornorrfors. Also fishing is very popular in this area and we saw several people catching salmon.
From Trondheim on we drove southwards to Lillehammer. Unfortunately our time was too limited to go to the western part of Norway. We knew that we could see there the most beautiful part of the Norwegian coast with fjords like Geiranger and Hardangerfjord. But we would visit that when we return to Norway the years after.

There's a debate in Britain right now over whether it still is or a "Christian" country. There's no doubting Britain Christian heritage. Wherever you go you'll find church buildings dating back hundreds, even a thousand years or more.
There's a downside. The cost of repairing all England's 14,500 listed places of worship is almost £1,000,000,000. Who is going to pay the bill? Church attendance is declining and the age of parishioners is rising.
Here's a legal solution that just may dampen the ability of a local church to reach its community…
The Church of England has been denounced as "evil" and "unholy" as parishes around the country enforce an archaic law dating to Henry VIII's reign telling unwitting residents they could face bills exceeding £100,000 for building repairs.
At least 250 Parochial Church Councils, who administer Anglican parishes, have registered Chancel Repair Liability (CRL) against 12,000 properties where ancient deeds permit this. Under the medieval law affected landowners, whether or not they are Anglicans let alone Christians, can be liable for repair of their local Anglican church if built before 1536 even though this was not shown in their deeds when they purchased the property.
Andrew and Gail Wallbank became responsible for maintaining 13th century St John the Baptist Church in Aston Cantlow, Stratford, when they inherited a farm. After centuries of not being enforced the local PCC invoked the liability in 1990 demanding £100,000. Their 18-year legal battle ended in 2009 with the Law Lords ruling in the PCC's favour landing the Wallbanks with an overall bill of £350,000. They auctioned the farm to pay for their costs.
(Thanks to readers Dave and Jay)

Scarlet Letter (Click to select text)
By: Candy Nathaniel Hawthorne was a great American writer in his time. He saw problems in the government and the ways people lived their lives that were beyond his years. The Scarlet Letter was one of his greatest literary works, telling the story of a young woman plagued by a simple misdeed and shunned by all that she knew. He wrote this novel to try and show everyone at the time just how antiquated their ideas were and that it was time for a change in society. The Scarlet Letter was written with the purpose of mocking the strict practice of theocracy and how the church was basically controlling the government and how if the church didn't agree with something, the whole town could be manipulated to think the same way. He represented this in his book by showing how a once respected member of the community, Hester, became an outcast for life after making a simple judgement error. I am very grateful that things today are different and knowing that if I mess up in life, I can always pick up the pieces and count on my friends to be there for me. Back then, if you didn't follow the rules exactly, you had a dark cloud hanging over you for the rest of your life. All of your friends would turn on you and make your life miserable, there weren't any true loyalties, and you couldn't really trust anyone. The Scarlet Letter took place in Boston, Massachusetts in the late eighteenth century. The United States was still greatly influenced by England and under a strict theocratic government. The author had many messages he wanted to get across in this book. He didn't agree with theocracy and didn't like the way members of the clergy were treated as if they could do no wrong and other members of society were all doomed to go to Hell for the slightest mishap. This book broke the mold by showing a minister who had done wrong, and how he would be punished for it, just the same as any other person. It went through how he was tortured inside, even though the community was oblivious to the fact that he was Pearl's father, he knew it and he also knew that God knew it and that at some point he would have to pay for his sins. The book was a mockery of his hypocrisy, how he condemned Hester for what she had done and cursed the father of the child for not stepping forward even though he knew in his heart the baby was his. He had committed the same crime as Hester, and yet she was the only one punished for it. He stood there in front of the whole town and said awful things about her and sentenced her to a life of grief all the while knowing he was just as guilty as she was. Word Count: 485

A few weeks ago, one of the pawls failed on my favorite shad fishing reel, the Islander IR4. That reel has fought a lot of tough fish. I guess the fish finally exacted their revenge. I called Islander and spoke to their manager, Elliott Williams. I asked for two pawls and a spring. When I inquired about the price, Mr. Williams told me not to worry about it. About a week later, the parts arrived and my trusty IR4 is good as new! Thanks for the great customer service, Elliott and everyone else at Islander Precision Reels. I am a very satisfied angler!

Effective STL: 50 Specific Ways to Improve Your Use of the Standard Template Library by Scott Meyers
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I would not have survived the fairly rough immersion into the STL at the last programming project I worked on without this book. I certainly found his other books useful, but this one explained the difficult to grasp concepts behind the STL (which I hadn't used, or even cared about, before 2003), and helped me to write code that made use of the template libraries without making my solutions too cumbersome.
It was a great book, and I'd recommend it to anyone having to work with the STL (although I point out that this book was new in 2001, which is a very long time ago for computer languages).

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0201749629, Paperback)Written for the intermediate or advanced C++ programmer, renowned C++ expert Scott Meyers provides essential techniques for getting more out of the Standard Template Library in Effective STL, a tutorial for doing more with this powerful library.
STL is a hugely powerful feature of today's C++, but one with a well-earned reputation for complexity. The book is organized into 50 tips that explore different areas of the STL. Besides providing a list of dos and don'ts, Meyers presents a lot of background on what works and what doesn't with STL. Each tip is demonstrated with in-depth coding samples, many of which make use of two-color printing to highlight the most important lines of code. (Advanced developers will enjoy Meyers's in-depth explanations, while those who are in a hurry can skip ahead to the recommended tip itself.)
A good part of this book involves using containers, like vectors and maps, which are built into STL. (Besides the standard built-in containers, the author also highlights recent additions to STL like B-trees, which are available as extensions from other vendors.) You'll learn the best ways to allocate, add, change, and delete items inside containers, including associative containers like maps. You'll also learn to avoid common pitfalls, which can result in writing code that is slow or just plain wrong.
Other areas covered in Effective STL cover getting the most out of the 100-plus STL algorithms that are bundled with this library. Meyers shows you how to choose the correct algorithm for sorting and other functions. (Even advanced developers will learn something here.) Sections on using function objects (called functors) round out the text. Meyers shows you when these classes make sense and the best ways to implement them. Besides specific tips, you'll get plenty of general programming advice. A useful appendix shows the limitations of STL as implemented in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and how to overcome them.
Overall, Effective STL is a really invaluable source of programming expertise on an essential aspect of today's C++ for anyone who is using--or planning to use--STL in real production code. It is quite simply a must-have. --Richard Dragan
Topics covered: Introduction to advanced Standard Template Library (STL) programming techniques 50 tips and best practices for STL illustrated with sample tutorial code Choosing containers Efficient copying of elements inside containers Removing, erasing, and cleaning up items from containers Using custom allocators with STL containers Thread safety with STL Tips for programming with the STL vector and string classes (including reserving memory and calling legacy C/C++ code) Tips for associative containers (including comparing items, sorted vectors, and non-standard enhancements to STL) Tips for selecting and using STL iterator classes STL algorithms (including sorting, removing, and comparing items) Using functors with STL General tips for STL programming (including advice for choosing algorithms and understanding compiler diagnostic messages) String locales Overcoming STL imitations in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0

"This is Effective C++ volume three - it's really that good." - Herb Sutter, independent consultant and secretary of the ISO/ANSI C++ standards committee"There are very few books which all C++ programmers must have. Add Effective STL to that list." - Thomas Becker, Senior Software Engineer, Zephyr Associates, Inc., and columnist, C/C++ Users Journal C++'s Standard Template Library is revolutionary, but learning to use it well has always been a challenge. Until now. In this book, best-selling author Scott Meyers ( Effective C++ , and More Effective C++ ) reveals the critical rules of thumb employed by the experts - the things they almost always do or almost always avoid doing - to get the most out of the library. Other books describe what's in the STL. Effective STL shows you how to use it. Each of the book's 50 guidelines is backed by Meyers' legendary analysis and incisive examples, so you'll learn not only what to do, but also when to do it - and why. Highlights of Effective STL include: Advice on choosing among standard STL containers (like vector and list), nonstandard STL containers (like hash_set and hash_map), and non-STL containers (like bitset). Techniques to maximize the efficiency of the STL and the programs that use it. Insights into the behavior of iterators, function objects, and allocators, including things you should not do. Guidance for the proper use of algorithms and member functions whose names are the same (e.g., find), but whose actions differ in subtle (but important) ways. Discussions of potential portability problems, including straightforward ways to avoid them. Like Meyers' previous books, Effective STL is filled with proven wisdom that comes only from experience. Its clear, concise, penetrating style makes it an essential resource for every STL programmer.… (more)

You are my sunshine. This family radiates more than just sunshine. It's a beauty that you can't put into words. As a Fort Collins family photographer, I am lucky enough to say I absolutely love my job.
For years, I have been dear friends with this gorgeous mamma. We went through grade school together, laughing about who wore the shortest high waters, or who could act out scenes from Napoleon Dynamite better (why we loved that ridiculous movie, who will ever know?!). Her hugs will make your day, and her laughter will fill your heart.
I couldn't be happier for her, or more proud of who she has become. She is an amazing mother to this little girl, and soon to be another. What a lucky guy her husband is! And a great father to Mika as well.
Photographing this session was like magic. After an overcast day, the sun peeked right through the clouds, and gave us exactly the light we wished for. The mountains couldn't have been more blue, and the grass more green. The location was breathtaking. Up in the mountains of Wyoming, it will always be one of my absolute favorite shooting locations. How lucky am I to have such a place?
As if I weren't there at all, these three went about exploring the hills. If it wouldn't have been for my random bursts of excitement, you would have thought it was only those three. Their pure happiness showing right through, just to be together. Their laughter echoed in the cool air, making me smile. I don't think my smile disappeared the entire session. Especially when mom and dad had to chase down little Mika to prevent her from eating a random cow-pie here and there. Yummy.
With all my heart, I am in love with everything about this session, every image. And I cannot thank this family enough for allowing me to be their family photographer. XO

From September 2015 Acorns Primary and Shipston-on-Stour Primary (Stour Federation) have been working in closer collaboration with one of our neighbouring schools, Brailes C of E Primary School.
We have had a very positive experience since federating with Shipston-on-Stour Primary in 2011. The move to work with Shipston Primary continues to bring benefits to pupils in both Long Compton, Shipston and surrounding villages, at a time when rural schools are being put under increasing financial pressure.
By working together we have been able to strengthen our leadership team and build capacity, having an Associate Head at each school but overseen by Christian Hilton as Executive Headteacher; save money by achieving economies of scale and, most importantly, raise standards for our children, who have benefited from shared expertise and specialist education provision and resources across both schools.
An opportunity arose in April 2015 to work with Brailes C of E Primary School, commencing in September 2015. Brailes has been rated by Ofsted as Good.
Brailes cannot officially join our Federation as maintained schools and academies are not permitted to federate. In addition, they would have to convert to academy status to join our multi-academy trust, which requires more detailed consideration. Therefore we have formed a collaborative partnership with Brailes C of E Primary School, with Brailes retaining a separate governing body and receiving support from the Diocese and Local Authority. Brailes, Shipston and Acorns are led by Christian Hilton as Executive Headteacher, who will work across all three schools. Mr. Hilton is based at Shipston three days a week, and one day a week each at Acorns and Brailes. While Mr. Hilton will spend half a day less at Acorns and Shipston, each school will have a dedicated Associate Headteacher. For Acorns this will be Mrs. Young, for Shipston Mr. Roberts and for Brailes Mrs. Childs. Brailes will reimburse Acorns and Shipston for Mr. Hilton's and Mrs. Childs' time.
Our Federated Board of Trustees has been rigorous in its scrutiny of such a partnership. Any change has to be in the interests of Acorns and Shpston pupils and having explored this fully, the board felt that the partnership bring benefits to all three schools.
Each school continues to retain its own separate identity, uniform and admissions policy. However, behind the scenes we will all work towards the common goal of raising standards together, and as we share expertise, leadership and resources we hope you will notice a difference for the better.

Today is our birthday. On August, 15, 2003, the foundation was laid for Concrete Software. With little more than a Personal Digital Assistant and a dream, we set out to make the highest quality and the most fun mobile games we could. That was 10 years ago.
A lot can happen in 10 years:
You could speedrun Doom on Nightmare difficulty over 200,000 times. (Over 100,000 times for a 100% run.)
You could earn two separate PhDs. (One in astrophysics and one in applied mathematics.)
You could build the Golden Gate Bridge, the Empire State Building, AND the Hoover Dam, and still have time for ice cream.
You could establish NASA and go on to land some guys on the moon. You get the idea.
We haven't done all that, but we're pretty proud of what we've accomplished, and it might sound cheesy to say it, but we couldn't have done it without you. We've weathered the storms of platform wars and marketplace upheavals. We've watched other companies rise and fall, and seen breakthrough technologies come and go. And through it all we never stopped making the games that we want to play — games that we think you'll want to play.
We've been around for a while, and we've seen a lot, but we still have a ways to go. After all, it has only been 10 years and The Simpsons has been on for 24 and the Rolling Stones have been rocking for over 50. But with a bona fide decade of experience under our belts, you can expect big things from us over the next 10 years.
See you in 2023.

8 Unique Etsy Finds for the Perfect Wedding
I love the idea of personalizing every aspect of a wedding, and online shops like Etsy have made it easy for people to get connected with specialty stores that can make anything and everything to make your wedding day exactly how you've always pictured it to be. I've compiled a list of 8 my favorite finds on Etsy in hopes to inspire you in how to make your wedding day one of a kind.
Ever since Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding, I've been obsessed with fascinators. I think the idea of everyone dressing up and the women wearing their cute, little fancy hats is fabulous! And then I found these headbands from BeChic Accessories. They're perfect for a bride, bridesmaids, or flower girl.
It is said that a thousand folded cranes, one for each year of its life, makes a wish come true. So why not incorporate this fun tradition into your wedding? You can hang them with clear fishing line and have them hanging all over your reception. And the best part, you can find them in bunches of 1000 or more in etsy stores like Relax Event Studio. They're cheaper than covering the ceiling with flowers and they look super elegant.
While your dad might not have been part of the planning process, he definitely holds a special place in your heart. So why not show him that with these cute little wedding tie patches from Sew Happy Girls? You can guarantee it will be special moment for him when you give it to him and it will be something he will cherish forever.
After the wedding dust has settled, it's time to get started on those thank you notes. But why get some boring generic ones when you could keep the elegance of your wedding going with some thank you notes that keep the theme? If your stationer isn't providing you thank you notes, why not check out stores like East Grove Stamp who have some stunning designs for personalized stamps that you can make your own cards and are sure to make the people receiving them smile.
Getting married during a rainy month, one of those sweltering Houston summer months, or having a second line? Why not be prepared for some fun outdoor photos with these cute umbrellas from Revelry Party Company. You can get colors to match your wedding theme, clear, lacy parasols, or even some cute patterns!
How about your wedding dress? That's right. You can even buy your wedding dress from Etsy. And stores like EL Design Studio make the dresses in the United States and ones like this are under $500.
I like any kind of wedding favor that the guest can use after the wedding. After all, most people aren't as excited as your grandma is to keep that paper fan with your face on it after the wedding day. So how about these love bottle openers from Favor Affair? They'll look nice on the tables at your reception and the guests will think of you every time they open a bottle at home!
But what do you give your girls in order to thank them for throwing you a bridal shower or bachelorette party? Whether your friends are a sweets fanatic or a grilling aficionado, there's some tasty treats on Etsy for everyone's discerning pallets. But I think my favorite were these custom wine labels from Studio B Labels.

Green Screen Construction
Over a period of two months and closely monitored by Academy Director Christopher Marler, skilled Rwandan artisans completed the transformation of a lecture room into arguably one of East Africa's finest green screen studios.
In order to ensure that the highest of standards were achieved, and largely because they were unavailable locally, majority of the components for construction were sourced from the U.S.
The size of the green screen is about 18 by 18 feet and features curvilinear corners and removable rubber floor tiles that reveal a colour matched painted floor for wide shots.
The studio is also sound proofed, air conditioned and kitted with Kino Flo Diva-Lites, Lite Panels LED lights as well as Chimera Video Pro Plus Kits. Combined with the ATEM Television Studio, Canon XF-105, Sony PMW-F3L and Sony NEX-FS700 cameras, the studio provides an ideal learning environment for setting up lighting in a studio, green screen shooting and compositing.

A Quiet Night in Neum - Holidays Pt.1
On recent travels down the Croatian coast, we stopped in Neum (Bosnia and Herzegovina) for a night. Normally this town is packed with tourists, but we happened to be there during Bayram (an important holiday for Muslims) when families gather to celebrate the end of Ramadan and break the fast together. And the inflatable toys and boat captains and Jet Skis all get a day of rest.
