Safeguarding Statement
Hillcroft Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
This means that we have a Child Protection and Safeguarding policy and Procedures in place which can be viewed on our website. All staff (including supply staff, volunteers and governors) must ensure that they are aware of these procedures.
Sometimes, we may need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies when there are concerns about student welfare. We will ensure that our concerns about students are discussed with his or her parents/carers first, unless we have reason to believe that such a move would be contrary to the student's welfare.
Our safeguarding lead is:
Miss Louise Summers
Our deputy safeguarding leads are:
Miss Kellie Brazier, Mrs Kath Lloyd-Evans, Mrs Debbie Pearson, Miss Danni Robins and Mrs Lisa Whickman.
If you are concerned about a child's welfare, please record your concern and any observations or conversations that you may have heard and report this to one of the safeguarding leads as soon as possible that day. Do NOT conduct your own investigation.
If your concerns relate to the actions or behaviour of a member of staff (which would suggest that he or she is unsuitable to work with children) then you should report this to one of the safeguarding leads in confidence or the Chair of Governors,Mrs Janet Worth, if the concern relates to the Headteacher, who will consider what action to take.

At organicspa, we believe through the rigorous certification process of our manufacturing plant and approved formulas together with random audits from the AQIS (Australian Quarantine Inspection Service) approved certifier the OFC, we can offer a true independently certified product, unlike most products offered in the current market.
The Organic Food Chain and the Vegan Society states that the
following ingredients must NOT be included in our products:
- Any products from animal origin
- Petrochemicals and other synthetic substances
- Fragrances and other colour components of non-organic or synthetic origin
- Synthetic preservatives including Parabens and nature identical preservatives
- Chelating agents based on EDTA and its salts
- Alkyl Sulphates and Alkyl Ether Sulphates (Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, Ammonium Lauryl Sulphate, Sodium Laureth Sulphate, Ammonium Laureth Sulphate)
- Talc
- Polysorbates
- Ethanolamides (Cocamide DEA / MEA)
- Chemically synthesised sunscreens.
We believe excluding the above ingredients from our formulations set us ahead in current world certification standards as other governing bodies are open to allow synthetic or nature identical raw materials in the cosmetic products they certify. In some instances companies have even set their own certifying standards.

November 13, 2011 – Recep Tayyip Erdoghan has made some stupid statements in his life, but none as hilarious as those concerning the "close relationship" between the people of Turkey and Syrians. Leave aside the fact that Turkish, as a language, is a Central Asian language that was brought over by marauding Turkic tribes such as the Seljuqs (Alp Arslan) in the 11th Century, the only things that bind the two peoples together is that Turkey occupied Syrian lands given to the Turks by the stinking French after WWI. Well, sure, some "Turks" are related to Syrians if you figure those Turks are actually Syrians themselves!
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America", says Recep Tayyip Erdoghan before a delegation of scantily-dressed adolescent males from the Boy Scouts of America.
Erdoghan, who is referred to by his supporters as "Sultan Mehmet Recep V `the Crumb'", is so much an Islamist that he has virtually eradicated the legacy of the founder of the Turkish Republic, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. This alone should give the military pause to consider unseating this muttonhead before he brings Turkey around to the 12th Century. His tirades against Syria, a truly secular state, must now be understood in the context of his vibrant retrogressiveness and religiosity, a cultural retardant, by anyone's standard.
With his trusted sidekick, Abdallah Gul, at his side, he has convinced the European leadership that he is anything but European. Crashing down on dissent in his own country; grinding the Kurds into the ground, culturally and physically; exterminating Christians and their priceless holy sites; this man has established a kingdom of murder unlike any other in the history of our region.
In this picture taken two years ago, Abdallah Gul, Turkey's president, displays the phenotype and phrenology typical of the Anatolian village idiot.
What do these two men have in common? You betcha! Not a one is indigenous to the Near East.
Erdoghan's ancestors are Central Asian Turks and Prime Minister Mileikowski's ancestors are Lithuanian and Polish villagers who converted to judaism. But that doesn't stop these invading drips from eructing hot air about how the truly autochthonous people should run their lives.
Talk about Turkeys. Can anyone believe this mephitic scorpion from the Hijaz, born of some English woman, is calling for the resignation of our president, Dr. Assad? What is he going to do when the salafists start knocking on his door? Will he pack his Good Humor uniform himself as he leaves Raghadan Palace for the Islamist hordes?
I am pleased to inform my readers that the western game being played against Syria is coming out in the open. What is sad, is that the BBC, which used to be my favorite news source, is going to undergo a drubbing from which it may never recover. Armand Assange is our hero. He has now disclosed the fact that Rami Abdel-Rahman of the ineptly named Syrian Observatory for Human Rights is a paid agent of the U.S. government. Barada TV is also paid by the U.S. government. What a treacherous cabal of snakes live in Washington.

Question: It is said dolphins are cleverer than humans...Why is this?
celever, dolphin
Asked by ruthenium to Suzi, Tim on 24 Jun 2011.

answered on 24 Jun 2011:
Hi @ruthenium
I have heard that dolphins are really intelligent, but I don't know whether they are more intelligent than humans?
So I don't think I can answer this question.
Do you think they're clever than humans? If so, what about them makes them cleverer?
ruthenium commented on 24 Jun 2011:
Congratulations on winning, I have been voting every session for you. I think that dolphins are born intelligent because they are born with a sense of direction and knowledge of where and how to catch prey, unlike us who are taught how do almost everything.

Hi @ruthenium
Thank you SO MUCH for voting for me, it really means a lot to me 🙂
I see what you mean about why dolphins are intelligent, and although I agree with you that we have to be taught things, we are able to reach a much higher level of intelligence, and at some point we must have learnt how to teach our offspring things, which maybe is even more of a skill. What do you think?

Jean-Philippe Delmas explained that the yield is down as they had to eliminate green bunches in the summer and undertook some 'toilettage' in August, the process of cutting berries mid veraison. The yields are still a healthy 45hl/ha, which is much better than many estates have achieved in 2012. Picking commenced on the 17th of September and finished on the 9th of October. Botrytis was beginning to affect the Cabernets, so these had to be picked and not necessarily at optimum ripeness. The Merlots were by contrast very ripe and possessed high potential alcohols. Jean-Philippe said that in terms of analytical comparison, the 2012 is most similar to the 2006, however upon tasting he sees more in common with the 2001 but with more concentration, alcohol and power. Dark fruit liqueur, crushed rocks, and griotte; the palate is ever so pure with velvety raspberry and cherry fruit. This is very regal, cashmere lined claret with a wonderful tannic spine. Produced from 65.5% Merlot, 32.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc.
Contains Sulphites.
Haut Brion has arguably been the most consistent First Growth over the past twenty years. The exceptional terroir in the suburbs of Bordeaux has an uncanny knack of producing exquisitel wine whatever the weather throws at it. The estate can be traced back to the 14th century although the current owners can track their lineage back to 1935, when the American financier, Clarence Dillon bought the rather beleaguered estate. Now, Clarence Dillon's great grandson, Prince Robert of Luxembourg manages the estate, however, much of the success enjoyed by this estate is down to the Delmas family. Three generations have made Haut Brion their life's work, George (1921-1960), Jean Bernard (1960-2003) and Jean-Philippe (2003-to present).
The vineyards sit upon two gravel croupes and are planted with 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc for the reds and Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon for the whites. Aside from the Grand vins, the estate produce a second wine, Clarence de Haut Brion, previously called Bahans de Haut Brion and Clarte de Haut Brion, previously called Plantiers de Haut Brion.
The region has one first growth, Château Haut-Brion, whilst other renowned Chateaux currently doing well are La Mission-Haut-Brion, Pape-Clément, Smith-Haut-Lafitte and Haut-Bailly. Soils are gravely and well-drained and the plantations are similar in proportion to those of the Médoc, consisting mostly of Cabernet Sauvignon with some Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The region is also well known for its long-lived whites that can be varying blends of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon oaked or unoaked. The most lauded are Domaine de Chevalier, Haut-Brion, Pape-Clement, De Fieuzal, and Laville-Haut-Brion.
The hallowed Bordeaux trinity of grape varieties that form the stock left bank blend. Cabernet's Sauvignon's acidic, tannic complex qualities marry ideally with Merlot's sweet, softy flesh characteristics, and Cabernet Franc's finesse and freshness. This classic combination has worked so successfully in Bordeaux that it is now mirrored the world over, particularly in warm sunny climates such as the Languedoc, Tuscany, South Africa, Australia and Napa Valley.

In 2002, the then-Conservative leader Iain Duncan Smith visited a sink estate in Easterhouse, on the eastern outskirts of Glasgow. Easterhouse is one of the most deprived areas in Europe and IDS was shocked by what he found there. Until that moment, he admitted, he had not appreciated the terrible conditions in which some of his fellow citizens live, the depths of poverty from which so many are unable to free themselves, and the systematic failure of the political class to address these conditions. In what has been called his 'Easterhouse Epiphany', IDS pledged to commit Tory policy to alleviating the conditions of the poorest, the most excluded and forgotten in society, to enable all people to participate in and contribute to their communities. No one should ever be left behind. No one should suffer this way. Welfare wasn't working and it must be made to work for these people. This was compassionate conservatism writ large. Iain Duncan Smith looked broken and humbled as he left the estate. Some thought they even saw him crying.
Flash forward a decade and Iain Duncan Smith, Work and Pensions Secretary since 2010, is indeed presiding over a radical rethink of welfare. He has introduced the bedroom tax, which means that people in the Easterhouse estate, who happen to have a spare room, but have no prospect of renting it out or selling up, have had their benefits clawed back. In 2013, IDS introduced a new policy of 'sanctioning' benefit claimants - or, put another way, cutting people's benefits altogether - if they are judged fit for work or to have failed to seek work with sufficient ardour. In the first eight months of the new scheme, 553,000 people had their benefits 'sanctioned'. These included a man sanctioned for not applying for jobs online who was illiterate and did not know how to use a computer, people with long-term physical or psychiatric disabilities who were suddenly redescribed as healthy and then sanctioned when they couldn't hold down jobs. Job Centres were urged to meet targets for reducing benefit claimants but told not to describe these as targets. The Tories boasted about the numbers of people coming off benefits, while all around the country, for the first time in decades, food banks became a normal part of the civic landscape. While the introduction of Universal Credit exploded in a miasma of ill-thought-out computer chaos, IDS railed at the 'shirkers' and 'scroungers' who want 'something for nothing'. The target of this policy is not the poor, whatever he says; it's the new Tory electorate, the self-made men and women who infuriate themselves with fantasies of welfare dependents, the undeserving poor buying flat-screen TVs and taking exotic holidays on handouts provided by the taxes stolen from honest hardworking people by a spendthrift bleeding heart government.
I thought of this Easterhouse Epiphany as I was watching Game, the latest show at the Almeida, directed by Sacha Wares, designed by Miriam Buether, and written by Mike Bartlett. The audience for Game is divided into four groups, and ushered separately into the theatre. On your way in you are given a set of headphones and you sit in a small 'hide' facing a row of windows with the blinds down and three television monitors. The play begins as the blinds go up and we see that we are peering into a two-storey open plan house, where a couple, Carly and Ashley, are looking round. We slowly come to understand that the house is part of a scheme; this couple will be given the house and paid a small income. But for what? In parallel with this, David is being interviewed for a job in some kind of hospitality role ('the clients, when they get here, they'll expect a safe, professional, five-star reception'). These two worlds come together in the second scene; Carly and Ashley have moved in and now paying clients have the opportunity to shoot them with tranquilliser darts. The house is the centrepiece of a theme park, a rich man's urban safari, where the poor are there to be ogled at, humiliated and shot. We see a group of city boys, a rowing elderly couple, a birthday outing, someone from the Katie Hopkins school of cultural altruism, and the disenchanted owner of the complex all taking aim at the poor. Some years into the project, when Carly and Ashley have had a growing boy, he too becomes a target. David, meanwhile, feels worse and worse about his role in this 'entertainment' which brings about his own vertiginous personal decline.
The show is not literally or even metaphorically about Iain Duncan Smith or this government, though I couldn't help reflecting that the real story of the Easterhouse Epiphany is that IDS peered into the homes of the poor, wreathed in piety, only to punish and humiliate them to please the wealthy.
Game is a fascinating condensation of a number of different elements in the culture: not just the 'targeting' of the poor and the lionising of the rich, but the century's obsession with home ownership, Cameron's recent display of magnanimity in proposing starter homes for the young, the voyeurism of reality TV, internet pornography, Benefit Street, Gamergate, military adventurism, and the ubiquity of images of sexualised dead young women (in Nordic Noir and beyond). In a way it's a companion piece to Bull, in which two alpha office workers bully and humiliate their colleague for their own benefit and, well, just because they can. Bartlett and Wares are tapping into the brutality of the current culture, its blaming and stigmatising of the poor (welfare cheats), immigrants (welfare tourists), and southern Europeans (welfare addicts). Game is both a fantasy and an all-too-plausible picture of the imminent present.
But it's also a performance about theatre and its audiences. There's been a strong post-war tradition of putting the poor, the marginalised, the excluded on our stages. It starts, at least, in the late 1950s with Shelagh Delaney and Theatre Workshop's taste in new plays and with Wesker's Trilogy at the Royal Court, and it continues through Bond's work, the D H Lawrence trilogy in the late 1960s, through Matura and Keeffe and Dunbar, and it continues right up to Ian Rickson's period as AD of the Royal Court and beyond. (I remember going to the Court in early Autumn 2001, when the main house had Leo Butler's Redundant and upstairs Judy Upton's Sliding With Suzanne. As I waited in the queue to pick up my tickets, the man in front was asking what was on at the theatre. 'Downstairs,' said the Box Office assistant, 'we've got a gritty play about poverty, teenagers, family breakdown, and underage sex'. 'And Upstairs?' asked the punter. 'Yeah, pretty much the same,' she replied coolly.) There are excellent reasons for bringing the lives of the excluded and marginalised onto the stage. It forces the typically rather well-off Royal Court audience to pay attention to lives it might usually not encounter. It gives a platform and a voice to their concerns and fragilities and world view and way of life. But it's more complicated to think what the (well-off) audience gets from this. Is it noble social concern and a spur to more highly developed altruism? Or do we get some atavistic pleasure in seeing people suffer? These questions are raised very sharply by this production. At one moment, a visitor to the hide is Ashley himself. He has saved up to buy a session that will mean he can guarantee that he will not be looked at; he just wants a little unPanoptical time, but he pleads with David not to look either. David is reluctant; he has his instructions, but he turns his back anyway and the blinds come down. But the video monitors stay on, leaving us with a choice: do we also metaphorically turn our backs or do we continue to watch?
This is of a piece with the Almeida's investigations of audience and spectatorship over the last year - Mr Burns, Little Revolution, Our Town, and The Merchant of Venice all, in different ways, draw attention to the nature of our spectatorship. Mr Burns by the connections it required us to make between the three acts; it and Merchant of Venice forcing us to negotiate their compelling, challenging juxtapositions of high and low culture; Little Revolution in the breaching of the theatre, the location-specific juxtaposition of Islington and Hackney and the complicated tautologies of Alecky Blythe's verbatim presence; Our Town in the overlay of British accents and the US location, and then the shift from symbolic to iconic signification in the third act. That shift was prefigured a couple of months earlier by Tim Crouch's Adler & Gibb at the Royal Court (well, actually, everything by Tim Crouch), which reminds me that a reflection on the nature of spectatorship and representation has been a driving force in a lot of interesting recent work I've seen, from James Macdonald's elegant directorial sidestepping of graphic violence in his production of The Wolf From the Door to Ellen McDougall's Idomoneus at the Gate both of which treated its audience as intelligent people who could watch a piece of theatre creatively and imaginatively. The Belvoir Wild Duck at the Barbican was, like Game, a play in a box, which, in itself, draws attention to acts of spectatorship. There we watched the characters as if they were lab rats, the windows protecting stage from auditorium and auditorium from the state, until, in the final heartbreaking minutes, the actors appear directly before us, without protection, for a scene of unbearable emotional nakedness and grief. I thought also of a couple of Frantic Assembly shows: Rabbit - mostly performed in a perspex box - and Peepshow - we sat looking into a house - which then makes me think that the whole 'fourth wall' tradition of theatre since Naturalism is all about us peering, in complex and contradictory ways, into other people's houses. Here, in Game, we're almost always entirely voyeurs, looking in; it's a one-way view - us watching them - except for the rich visitors who become our avatars in the game and once again implicate us in the cruelty.
This is the most precise thing about Game, the way in which it manipulates and foreground and troubles our desire to watch, our habits of watching. I'm not usually very impressed by theatre that tries to 'implicate' its audience, which is usually a way of lazily generalising about who we are. This show, however, gives us choices and offers us dilemmas which we have to decide upon, resolve, hold together throughout. The moment-by-moment ethical dilemmas presented by the play are real because, even if we're not actually partaking in the fiction, we still have to think whether we want to look at semi-naked actors engaging, for instance, in fairly realistic sex acts. There's a deep equivalence between the decision in the fiction and there decision in the theatre and I found myself, time and again, nervous of my own reactions, checking, as we say now, my privilege.
Where the play is less precise is about the fictional game. First, I found the idea that such a game would ever exist implausible. That's not a killer problem as I don't think there would ever be Rollerball or a Hunger Games or a Sex Olympics but I can still enjoy the idea. I do think some have atavistic and violent feelings towards the poor and would like to express that in shooting at them. I think the play fits well into a current tradition of presenting our near-future as teetering on the edge of nihilistic violence (Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again., Wolf From the Door, Pomona, Men in the Cities even). In those plays, the violence is incredible but presented seriously; it's a kind of challenge. But Game is different; it seems to have a commitment to the plausibility of its world. Through the guide character of David, we are supposed to have a real-world horrified reaction to the fictional world's game. But this doesn't work, first, because the idea is basically implausible. I don't think it's a failure of imagination on my part, or any excess of sunny optimism, to think that the outcry at such a proposal would make it impossible to run it. But also, as the play goes on, we become aware that the Game is losing money; people aren't signing up to do the shooting. So is Mike Bartlett saying that we're heading to a world where we would shoot at the poor? Or that we wouldn't?
And then there's the character of David. There are at least two Mike Bartletts. There's the Mike Bartlett who writes about bad people: Bull is a good example, but also Contractions and Love Love Love and more. He's brutally accurate about horrible horrible people; he's unflinching in his depiction of them. He doesn't care about redemption or giving them flashes of goodness. He just shows them in all their disgusting, bullying, complacent, horror. He's remorseless and precise and unsentimental. And then there's the Mike Bartlett who writes about good people, in plays like Earthquakes in London, 13, or even King Charles III. This Mike Bartlett is visionary, messianic, broad, naive, beautiful, inspiring, and utopian. The good people are noble, brave, they make an impossible stand against the dreadfulness of the world, they seek positivity where all around is cynicism. I like both of these Mike Bartletts very much; I think they are each magnificent writers but I'm not sure the two men get on very well. The positive Mike Bartlett makes negative Mike Bartlett seem thin and cynical; the negative Mike Bartlett makes positive Mike Bartlett seem wishy-washy and sentimental.
Here, we have negative Mike Bartlett taking responsibility for writing the visitors to the Game and positive Mike Bartlett in charge of the David story. But the David story is a slow burn, about the gradual release of feeling, in which we need to piece together David's story from flashes and hints and moments; it makes scenes with visitors to the game seem rather superficial - they start nasty, stay nasty, and just unfold in their nastiness. The characters are, by comparison with David, rather one-note and can sometimes feel like stereotypes. This didn't matter in Bull, where the horrific pleasure is watching the remorseless logic of the bullying, but here it feels like we 'get' the visitors within a moment and the scenes lack dynamic.
Conversely, the brutal power of negative Mike Bartlett's scenes strip the power of the David scenes. It encourages us to doubt his motivations; why does he start having qualms? What part of 'you'll be running a game where rich people get to shoot tranquilliser darts at the poor' didn't you understand? And if we don't get his 'journey' we certainly aren't going to buy the ending. SPOILER ALERT: David waits until Ashley and Carly have left, then goes into the abandoned house and, haunted by images of his own tour of duty, shoots himself. SPOILER OVER. This is a real muddle. Is it the game that has triggered his memories? In which case, the game is kind of accidental (anything might have triggered it). What happened on the tour of duty? We never find out, so it's hard to know if that's the real story of his mental breakdown. Why does he feel he has to kill himself? If it's guilt about his participation in the game, well, why didn't he understand the game from the start; if it's a more general mental collapse, then it's not necessarily the game that should be blamed. To be honest, it felt entirely imposed on the play, which I think might have been stronger left as the working through of the dynamics of a cruel theme park, with David keeping his concerns to himself.
I think there's something a bit undecided at the heart of Game. The production is wonderful; Miriam Buether's design is stunning; the video and sound design (borrowing the Katie Mitchell team) is pin-point sharp; Sacha Wares has wrangled all of these elements with tremendous assuredness; and Bartlett's dialogue is splinter-sharp as always. But the solidity and clarity of all this only go to emphasise that underneath this building there are shallow foundations. I'm guessing that Game is not destined for a major afterlife - purely because of the logistics of putting the thing on - which is a shame, because I think there's a grimly exciting political and theatrical idea here and another iteration of the play might bring that out more fully.

Steven & I ,for a long time now, probably since the summer we were laughing about Cyclocross.
That after watching few races in Belgium along with few beers,decided to give it a try.
After, scavenging a couple of CX(it means cyclocross) bikes from a friend in my case, and Steven to super discounted bike, we decided to enter for the Central Cyclo Cross League held at the Milton Keynes Bowl.
Then last weekend,we travelled up to the Bowl.The day was cold,windy,rainy,muddy.Ideal condition for CX race.
We got there, and obviously we underestimated the event, considering that it was going to be easy,due to the track length.
We then climbed onto the saddles and did a warm up.Blimey, it was hard.We only did one lap as warm up. Yes correct,one lap equal of 2.5km which took us just over 10 minutes.Really slow comparing to road racing.I had also a little issue with my rear tyre,which was bald like my head.
Hence the swap rear tyre to the front.Giving me a no grip tyre at the front.
Anyway I did not care, because we were there for fun,and we entered in the novice men category.
We lined up in the peloton.I usually start behind the posers at the front so I can chat with other riders,because at the front no one speaks.Steven & I discovered everybody else did already few races before that.Therefore they were not novice.
Anyhow, apart from the chewing the mud for the first 50 yards Steven & I decided to sprint to the front,and this move paid well. Crashing prevented us to win our first race,but we managed to get a good result instead, 4th(for me) and 5th(Steven).
Now CX, is the latest addiction to a lot of riders,but I would like to remind people to keep on carry on cycling not just because it is a fashion,but it is a true passion.
The atmosphere in CX is more relaxed,more family oriented and more naturalistic. With CX you will gain a lot of bike skills,therefore the combination of practice and will power will make you stronger. Running will be minimal if you are good with bike skills to avoid obstacles.
Mostly, it is softer to land if you crash.
Until next time please enjoy your rides.Be careful on the road it is slippery.

A murderer struck at a Coventry school - during a role-playing game aimed at introducing pupils to the work of the police.
Schoolgirls at Tile Hill Wood School spent the day hunting for evidence to track down the killer during a Cluedo-style murder mystery day.
The "murder" took place during morning assembly and police in white boiler suits worn by forensic experts sealed off the scene.
They showed how they would take evidence and briefed the pupils about the investigation.
Then throughout the day the year eight girls worked on fingerprints and fibres in science lessons, translated witness statements in language classes, and worked out the movements of the suspects in maths lessons.
At the end of the day they formulated their chief suspect before police told the pupils, aged 12 and 13, whodunnit.
Judith Woodfield, assistant head teacher at the all-girl school, in Nutbrook Avenue, Tile Hill, Coventry, said the aim of the day was to improve team working and to get pupils involved in problem solving.
Abigail Hart, a 13-year-old who lives in Brookside Avenue, Whoberley, Coventry, said the day was an eye-opener.
She added: "It's been really interesting to know how the police work and how they find criminals, and learning how they do things like taking fingerprints from suspects."
Mahalia Carroll, aged 12, of The Jordans, Allesley Park, said: "We took our fingerprints and learned how to take other people's. The police were really helpful and friendly."
Aimee Grubb, aged 12, of Coombe Avenue, Binley, added: "We have been looking in micro-scopes and doing experiments.
"I enjoyed working with police and seeing what they do. It has been interesting."
The crime day was set up by the school as part of its citizen-ship programme with the help of the police.
The school has a youth crime prevention panel, which is run by pupils and involves the police and teachers.
Its aim is to help pupils under-stand crime prevention and how to stay safe. ..SUPL:

Translational Challenges in Atrial Fibrillation
Jordi Heijman, Jean-Baptiste Guichard, Dobromir Dobrev, Stanley Nattel
Photoacoustic imaging to define patient-specific atrial fibrillation mechanisms. Photoacoustic imaging uses (1) a pulsed-wave laser beam to activate endogenous (eg, water molecules, lipids, collagen) or exogenous photoabsorbing molecules, producing (2) thermal vibrations that generate (3) acoustic waves, which can be detected and localized using (4) ultrasound. Integration of photoacoustic imaging in an electrophysiology catheter in combination with intracardiac echocardiography could be used to assess ablation lesions (through endogenous chromophores) and perform in vivo Ca2+ imaging through novel cell-permeable photoacoustic Ca2+ indicators.

Elixir of Life: Thwarting Aging With Regenerative Reprogramming
Ergin Beyret, Paloma Martinez Redondo, Aida Platero Luengo, Juan Carlos Izpisua Belmonte
Regenerative reprogramming approaches. In vivo induction of transdifferentiation can be used to repopulate the cells lost during aging as an alternative to transplantation, complementing the intrinsic regenerative capacity. For instance, neurons lost to neurodegenerative diseases can be replaced by transdifferentiating resident glia or astrocytes; cardiac fibroblasts can be the cell source for induced cardiomyocytes; α, ductal, and acinar cells can be used for β cells. Alternatively, transient 4F (OCT4, KLF4, SOX2, and c-Myc) expression can be used to rejuvenate cells. This in turn can decelerate degeneration of biological units that have low regeneration capacity (eg, aorta) or augment regeneration capacity by counteracting stem cell exhaustion (eg, muscle) or by enhancing the plasticity of organs that intrinsically undergo cell conversions during regeneration (eg, transdifferentiation in the pancreas and dedifferentiation in the kidney). MuSC indicates muscle stem cell. [Powerpoint File]
Physiologic, Pathologic, and Therapeutic Paracrine Modulation of Cardiac Excitation-Contraction Coupling
Joshua Mayourian, Delaine K. Ceholski, David M. Gonzalez, Timothy J. Cashman, Susmita Sahoo, Roger J. Hajjar, Kevin D. Costa
Human engineered cardiac tissue (hECT) contractility assay. A, hECTs are created, cultured, and tested in a custom bioreactor with integrated force-sensing end-posts; as the tissue beats, deflections of the end-posts are tracked. Output contractile metrics include, but are not limited to, developed force (DF), maximum rates of contraction and relaxation (+/− dF/dt, respectively), and beat rate. B, Confocal microscopy of hECTs labeled with cardiac troponin I (green) and DAPI (4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole; blue) displays cardiomyocytes with striated sarcomeres and regions of aligned myofibrils. Inset shows magnified view of registered sarcomeres. C, hECT labeled with sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2 (red) and DAPI (blue) shows sarcoplasmic reticulum structures distributed throughout the tissue. Bar = 40 µm. [Powerpoint File]
Physiologic, Pathologic, and Therapeutic Paracrine Modulation of Cardiac Excitation-Contraction Coupling
Joshua Mayourian, Delaine K. Ceholski, David M. Gonzalez, Timothy J. Cashman, Susmita Sahoo, Roger J. Hajjar, Kevin D. Costa
Endothelial–cardiomyocyte interplay through paracrine factors. Endothelial cell NO increases basal contractility via nitrosylation of L-type Ca2+ channel (LTCC) and ryanodine receptor (RyR2). NO attenuates β-adrenergic effects on cardiomyocyte excitation–contraction coupling via cGMP-dependent degradation of cAMP and protein kinase G (PKG)-mediated decrease of LTCC activity. PKG also phosphorylates troponin I, leading to myofilament calcium desensitization and thus increased lusitropy. Endothelin-1, which mainly acts through the endothelin A (ETA) receptor in ventricular cardiomyocytes, may increase calcium entry via protein kinase C (PKC)-mediated (1) increase of LTCC activity, (2) indirect activation of sodium–calcium exchanger (NCX) reverse mode by increasing Na+–H+ exchanger activity, and (3) direct activation of NCX reverse (shown) and forward (not shown) mode. Endothelin-1 alters myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity via protein kinase C/D (PKC/D) phosphorylation of troponin I and myosin-binding protein C. Finally, endothelin-1 may increase calcium-induced calcium release via inositol trisphosphate (IP3) activation of inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP3R), which sensitizes RyR2 on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Green and red arrows denote activation and inhibition, respectively. PLB indicates phospholamban; and SERCA, sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase. [Powerpoint File]

Translational axis, with stage I studies (including in vitro studies and zebrafish models) to investigate basic mechanisms and discover new proteins and pathways; stage II studies (exploratory studies), predominantly in mouse models, to conduct hypothesis-generating research and initial in vivo testing; and stage III studies (confirmatory studies), as the last step before entering the clinical arena, involving rigorous research in a multicentre setting, with prospective registration of the key features of the study. Preclinical meta-analyses are performed with data from both exploratory and confirmatory studies, with the goal of giving an overview of available data, pointing out the gaps, and providing a guideline for future preclinical research. The level of standardization of methodology increases through the translational axis. [Powerpoint File]
Flavonoids, Dairy Foods, and Cardiovascular and Metabolic Health: A Review of Emerging Biologic Pathways
Dariush Mozaffarian, Jason H.Y. Wu
Relevant characteristics of dairy foods and selected molecular pathways potentially linked to cardiometabolic disease risk. Dairy foods are characterized by a complex mixture of nutrients and processing methods that may influence cardiovascular and metabolic pathways. Examples of relevant constituents include specific fatty acids, calcium, and probiotics. Relevant processing methods may include animal breeding and feeding, fermentation, selection and cultivation of bacterial and yeast strains (eg, as fermentation starters), and homogenization. Such modifications can alter the food's composition (eg, fermentation leads to production of vitamin K2 from vitamin K1) and its lipid structures (eg, homogenization damages MFGM), each of which can affect downstream molecular and signaling pathways. BCSFA indicates branched-chain saturated fats; GLP-1, glucagon-like peptide 1; MCSFA, medium-chain saturated fats; MFGM, milk-fat globule membranes; MGP, matrix glutamate protein; mTOR, mammalian target of rapamycin; and OCSFA, odd-chain saturated fats.

Flavonoids, Dairy Foods, and Cardiovascular and Metabolic Health: A Review of Emerging Biologic Pathways
Dariush Mozaffarian, Jason H.Y. Wu
Selected cardiometabolic benefits of flavonoids and potential underlying molecular mechanisms. In vitro and animal studies support bioactivity of purified flavonoids or flavonoid-rich plant extracts across multiple tissues. Relevant molecular pathways seem to include (1) modulation of gene expression and signaling pathways. Enhancement of AMPK (5′-monophosphate-activated protein kinase) phosphorylation and activation appears to be a common mechanism affected by several types of flavonoids. Modulation of other signaling pathways has also been observed including increased expression of PPAR-γ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ) and inhibition of NF-κB (nuclear factor-κB) activation; (2) interaction with gut microbiota. Dietary flavonoids may alter gut-microbial composition because of probiotic-like properties and stimulate growth of specific bacteria (eg, Akkermansia muciniphila) that may confer metabolic benefits. Conversely, metabolism of dietary flavonoids by gut bacteria generates downstream metabolites (eg, phenolic acids) that may possess unique properties and reach higher circulating and tissue concentrations compared with parent flavonoids, thus enhancing biological activity of flavonoids; (3) Direct flavonoid–protein interactions. Growing evidence suggests that flavonoids both stimulate and inhibit protein function, including of ion channels in the vasculature and liver and carbohydrate digestive enzymes (α-amylase and α-glucosidase) in the gastrointestinal tract. Such effects may partly contribute to regulation of vascular tone and glucose metabolism. ERK1/2 indicates extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2; GLUT4, glucose transporter type 4; IRS2, insulin receptor substrate-2; MAPK, mitogen-activated protein kinase; PGC-1α, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α; PKA; protein kinase-A; SREBP-1c, sterol regulatory element–binding protein-1c; TG, triglycerides; and TLR4, toll-like receptor 4.

On Saturday, November 19, 2016, from 1PM – 3PM, James Beard Award Winning Chef Jeremiah Tower will read from and sign his delightful new book, Table Manners: How to Behave in the Modern World and Why Bother (Farrar, Straus and Giroux) at the Southern Food & Beverage Museum (SoFAB). In his newest book, Tower discusses the idea of proper etiquette, thought of by some as a lost art, and offers readers a list of do's and don'ts for today's society.
The superstar Chef advises modern diners, "When people approve of your table manners they think you know how to do everything else properly, as well."
This event is presented in partnership with the John & Bonnie Boyd Hospitality & Culinary Library and is free with museum admission. Those who purchase a book will receive 1 complimentary admission per book.
About the Chef
Chef Jeremiah Tower is an American celebrity chef who, as told by Anthony Bourdain, Mario Batali, and others like Martha Steward in the CNN biopic about him (The Last Magnificent), is credited with developing the culinary style known as California cuisine, and shaping what has become known as the American culinary movement starting as the chef and co-owner of Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California. In 1984, Tower opened his own restaurant, Stars, in San Francisco. It was an overnight sensation. The restaurant was among the top-grossing restaurants in the United States for close to a decade.
Tower's first book, New American Classics, won a James Beard Foundation Award in 1986 for "Best American Regional Cookbook." He has published several other successful cookbooks. In 1996, Tower won the Foundation's Award for the "Outstanding Chef of the Year."

We've Got It Simple
Simplicity. Sorry, Simple. Its just a very easy word. And tantamount to success for startups trying to build something that didn't exist before.
In a recent piece for the LA Review of Books, Tom Streithorst describes a current era of Post Scarcity Economics in the U.S. - the period saturated with myriad supply and nascent or at least confused demand. As an economics piece, Streithorst goes on to analyze what makes people spend and how the government should act. What I found most compelling however was the psychological dynamic between timid demand and over-supply. What does it tell us about usage, purchase and what products are needed?
If people and firms do face a market of over-supply where everyone offers everything or a slice of what all of their competitors offer, then simple will be a distinguishing stripe for companies that win.
So what is a company with simple? Your idea can be said in two words and your core value is immediately understood: sell shoes, introduce investors, transform insurance. But more than just your mission, simple creates a focus, identity and culture within your company that will allow you to deliver on the simple idea you had.
Do one thing, do it so fucking well that your brand becomes the metonym for your industry, product field, or concept.
This is neither rocket science nor profound but in a world in which people have too many choices and instead of supply, demand becomes the economic determinant of the moment - in consumer tech the focus on # of app users or unique views for example - a company stands out because it solves a known problem or improves lives of consumers or firms and its damn simple to understand.
Simple is grand.

The Gorilla Mace workout for shoulders, chest, back, and forearms - a 2,000 year old Hindu warrior workout
The Mace originated over 2,000 years ago as a Hindu warrior workout. Today, instead of a large stone and a bamboo pole which made the gada mace, we use the Gorilla Mace which has a variable weight from 15lbs to over 50lbs.
It works the shoulders, chest, back, and forearms. In this post, we will look at how we grip the mace.
Checkout our Gorilla Mace workouts on YouTube:
GRIPPING the GORILLA MACE
There are two different grips, LEFT over RIGHT and RIGHT over LEFT, this is an asymmetric or uneven grip. Focusing on your grip is very important, instinctively you will grip the shaft with full force, for fear of dropping the mace, especially when it has just gone over your shoulder, this is fine to start with, but actually wrong long term, because your forearms will tire very quickly. Learning to relax your grip is the key, when you push up you can relax the grip pressure, to the point where the mace is starting to drop over your shoulder, the upward motion enabling you to straighten your fingers momentarily, and effectively taking a rest, just as the mace starts to free fall behind you re-grip softly, and the mace shaft will pull your fingers into a tighter grip for the rest of the swing.
If you are just starting out, or trying a heavier mace, you can choke the handle.
Take hold of the mace shaft at roughly half way between the head of the mace and the tip of the shaft. By doing this you shorten (choke) the mace, it means that the mace makes a smaller circle during the swing behind you. There is simply less distance to travel, the mace head drops less behind you and there is less leverage when you pull the mace up and over the opposite shoulder. You can choke the mace anywhere along the shaft and find the sweet spot that suits you, as you become stronger and more confident, start thinking about moving your grip further away from the mace head, training will become tougher but consider that a sign of improvement. Keep it up and get Gorilla Tough!

Three Rooms
Saturday morning, Nov. 14, I got the news that my newly completed CD, Three Rooms, is officially available for sale on CD Baby. You can order copies of the CD in a jewel case or download the mp3s individually or as an album. In the next few weeks, CD Baby will make the digital version available on iTunes and several other sites as well.
The songs on Three Rooms were all written over the course of a few months last year, and I spent a lot of time since then arranging and recording. I've gotten some very positive feedback about the production and the arrangements, as well as the songs themselves.
A storm swept through New Jersey on Friday 13th--a good omen for the end of a long creative project.

Regardless of the fact that the approach is truly among the parts of relationship, it stays among the most terrifying for men.
Men wish that women would make things simpler by being willing to take the initiative themselves.
But, despite social advancement and also the ardent wishes of many, most men, the approved cultural narrative places the onus on guys to make the initial move.
There are girls who only prefer guys to be the aggressor and will not be the one to approach them.
Find out more about Kinetic Attraction here: Kinetic Attraction Review.
However, there are also plenty of girls who can and do approach guys, provided he is the right man.
To begin with, you want to relax. People are an empathetic species, we pick up on one another's emotions and that could directly affect how we feel. When you're coming off as stressed or upset, you're likely to wind up earning the people around you feel uneasy.
If you are relaxed, they'll feel rested.
Go ahead and take a deep breath, hold it for a count of five, then exhale slowly.
When you exhale, let the tension drain out of your shoulders and limbs. Above all, however you have to make eye contact and smile. One of the explanations for why women don't approach is due to how many guys react badly to women making the first move. Making eye contact and giving a relaxed, genuine smile is a indication of confidence and friendliness. Averting your eyes or avoiding eye contact tells people that you don't wish to talk to them and will make people prevent you rather. Wish to let women know it's OK to come talk to you? Have a page and provide them what is known as a strategy invitation. Because girls are taught not to show too much overt curiosity, they have quite a few of non-verbal ways of producing themselves approachable and making sure that men know it is ok to return to them, even a mixture of smiles, body language gestures and cues.
If you want to indicate to some woman that you are receptive to being approached, then you want to employ a similar approach. The easiest way is to make eye contact with the person, especially if she's been checking you out, smile and orient your body towards her; this indicates that yes, you saw her detecting you and you're interested in her. Guess what? As intimidated about approaching her when she's with all of her friends, as you feel? She believes the exact same way about approaching you when you're with yours. Approaching someone you do not know who is in a group is not any less intimidating when you're a woman. So if you want her to approach you, you need to make certain to give her an opening.

The Joy of Initiative
In my last post, we talked about raising truly obedient children. The tricky thing about obedience is that if your only objective is to get your child to do what you say, you're probably not raising a "truly" obedient child.
You might be thinking, "Uh, that's the very definition of obedience," and I suppose you'd be right; but the truth is there are different levels of obedience.
Level one is obedience that comes from fear of punishment. This is the lowest level, but it's still obedience.
Level two is obedience that comes from hope of reward. Most people would probably consider this the highest form of obedience; but there's one higher still.
The highest level of obedience is basically doing what's asked of you because it's the very thing you want to do as well. Actually, you probably don't have to be asked to do this thing anymore because, again, you wanted to do it in the first place.
Now you might be asking, "Uh, how can it be obedience if I wasn't asked to do it?" Good question.
The answer is you were asked to perform this task at one time, probably many, many times; but then something happened. You took "ownership" of the task. It became, not something to do out of fear of punishment or hope of reward, but something you wanted to do regardless of these things.
Actually, performing and doing the job well was the reward and the only reward you were interested in receiving.
Think of all the menial things we do simply because completing these tasks and doing them well brings us joy. Folding laundry neatly. Giving a room a fresh coat of paint. Mowing and trimming the lawn. Cooking a delicious meal. Organizing a hall closet. Scrubbing the kitchen counters until they sparkle.
None of these tasks are what we would consider "fun", but there is joy to be found in them. The difficulty is helping your children to discover it. Maybe a little fictional story will help to get this point across.
A Little Illustration
Let's say it's early afternoon and you've just received a call from a friend. "I hope I'm not imposing, but I've needed to return your casserole dish for what seems like forever and I thought it would be nice to sit down and chat. Would it be ok if we drop by? Please say no if this is a bad time."
It's rarely a "good" time for you to accept impromptu engagements, but you say yes anyway.
"Oh, yay! How does 3:30 sound?"
Well (you think to yourself) 3:30 sounds like the time you steal away to your bedroom for your much coveted 15 minutes of "me" time, but oh well. "That would work just fine. See you then!"
A quick glance at your watch reveals it's 2:12. A quick glance at your house reveals it's time question your sanity.
"How am I going to get this place ready for company?"
You recall past visits with this particular friend in her home and how perfect everything was. There was even the time you dropped by unannounced with more than a little hope that she would open the front door and you could peer into "real" life. Nope – still perfect.
"The children. I'll get the children to help."
Orders fly and some groans go up, but you remind them it's all for a good cause – their friends will be here soon. "Mark, you load the dishwasher and wipe down the counters. Samantha, pick up the living room and vacuum please. And Katie, you, um, you . . . uh . . . "
Katie has a bit of a reputation for doing the least possible amount of work that's expected of her. She also has a pension for working in little capsules of time divided by periods of play. The capsules last all of 2, maybe 3 minutes. The periods can last for up to, well, as long as she can possibly get them to last before you realize she's no longer working.
In short, the only way to get Katie to do anything is to police her and this of course takes you away from performing your work, so sometimes it's actually quicker to do her job and your job.
Hence, your struggle to come up with a task for her that's more demanding than stacking magazines on your coffee table.
No, you won't do it. Sure, you'll soon be hosting the queen of hospitality herself, but my if your daughter doesn't need to learn some responsibility!
"And Katie, you clean the bathroom. And I mean clean young lady! Sweep the floor, replace the toilet paper roll, and . . ."
Just then the baby begins to scream and you're off to see what that's all about. 15 minutes later you remember Katie.
As you make your way to the bathroom, you find her sitting in her room pouring a pretend cup of tea for her teddy bear. "Katie, is the bathroom finished?"
"Yes Mama."
"Well, let's just go check on that, shall we?"
On the way to the bathroom you spy something which tells you that the bathroom is, in fact, not clean; the same blue towel that was half sticking out of the bathroom doorway 15 minutes ago is still there.
"Katie! You said the bathroom was clean! The toilet still needs scrubbed and…"
"But Mama, I did what you told me to do." "
"I told you to clean the bathroom!"
"You told me to sweep the floor and replace the toilet paper roll so I did."
"Couldn't you have at least picked up the dirty towels before you swept?"
The reply comes quite matter of factly. "But Mama, you didn't ask me to pick up the towels."
Sound familiar? It does to me. Let's just say the events above were loosely "based on a true story" (I'm just not gonna say how loosely). The point is that children can struggle with initiative and it's not difficult to understand why.
Help Your Children "Own" Their Work
Initiative is what I consider a "201" level character attribute, the reason being that it can't possibly involve any sort of request or requirement on your part. When you instruct your child to do something and they do it, we call that obedience. It's a "101" level attribute (and a very important one at that). Initiative, however, requires considerably more of them in that they must act on their own.
As I'm sure you know, it can be hard enough to get children to do things they've been told to do. How much harder is it to get them to do things that need to be done without being asked? As it turns out, not much harder. In fact, it may even be much, much easier.
The secret to instilling initiative in your children has a lot to do with ownership and the joy that comes from a job well done.
Let's look at one aspect of being a child that causes parents a great deal of consternation – messiness. In short, most parents like a clean house while most children seem to believe their mission in life is to rid the world of clean houses. : )
Ok, so that's a bit of a stretch, but I think it's safe to say that children are generally quite messy. Why? Because tidiness isn't valuable to them. So the bathroom's a mess – how exactly does this effect little Katie's ability to host a tea party with her stuffed animals?
Children couldn't care less about messy rooms. They'll happily play in or around them. Usually, the only thing that makes keeping things tidy valuable to them is the "wrath of mom." It's a simple equation – clean room = happy mom. Messy room = angry mom; Hmmm . . . better clean my room (or, at least that's the idea).
But what if you could help your children see that keeping a clean room is valuable in ways that have nothing to do with staying in your good graces? What if they could begin to take ownership of a task and reap one of the most important, if not the most important, benefits of a job well done? The benefit? Joy.
No doubt, children like being children, but they also like doing things that make them feel "big". My sons have complained bitterly about washing a sink full of dishes ("It's soooo haaaaarrrddd dad!!) but have happily string-trimmed their great-grandfather's pond in the blazing hot sun with nary a complaint ("It was hard work dad, but we got it done!").
What's the difference here?
For one thing, the string trimming held more value to them. Actually, we didn't even have to ask them to do it! Running a dangerous power tool probably had something to do with it (lol) but once they finished up you could see the joy all over their faces. It was the look of ownership, and it's one of the key components of true initiative.
Advanced Obedience
We all want obedient children but hopefully we want so much more than that. Obedience is great, but in its most rudimentary form it's basically them doing things that make you happy. There's not necessarily anything wrong with that, but what you really want is for the things that make you happy and the things that make them happy to be one and the same.
In the end, there are two ways to get Katie to clean the bathroom – you can ask (or demand, as the case may be) that she clean it or you can strive to instill in her the value of a clean bathroom and allow the ownership of the task to motivate her to keep the bathroom clean.
While it might be easier in the short term to shout at or threaten Katie until she cleans the bathroom, nothing could be better than if she were to take initiative. Not only would she do the job without being asked, she'd likely do it better. It's a win-win.
If you've ever taken a moment to step back and admire a bed well made or a freshly painted room you've felt the joy of a job well done.
Far from threatening our children for not performing a task, we want them to taste of the joy that comes from blessing others through earnest work; for in tasting it they will have discovered the fountainhead of true obedience.

The parking could be considered a perk, but the service is mainly to try and address the lack of space in Microsoft's parking garages. I'd rather park my own car, but it sounds like that would mean a lot of driving around and around searching for a spot. According to Microsoft test engineer Tim Hogg, quoted in the article: "If you show up after 9:30 in the morning, there is nowhere to park. It's been a great work-around for the problems at this place – for every car space there is, there are 1.5 cars that want to park." This isn't anything new in the tech world. Yahoo! and Google also offer employees valet parking to conserve space. Comments | More in Microsoft

The world is becoming an increasingly difficult entity to predict. Business, economy, politics and society are part of the same ecosystem, certainly, but the rules of engagement have changed and what held good once upon a time is no longer good enough. The future of the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) world is completely different and its challenges, unprecedented. Disruptive technologies and the internet are driving these changes and it takes not only a well-informed manager to understand the implications, but a smart one to be able to realise the potential of such disruptions.
Educators therefore, have a duty to offer knowledge not only for the basic understanding and appreciation of the discipline but also for enhancing skillsets and expertise that will help the students face up to the challenges of the coming years. In this context, the higher education segment has a crucial role to play. My article is specific to the management education milieu.
Here is a summary of some of the things that are wrong with management education in India and some suggested remedies:
Lack of qualified faculty: While the regulatory authorities impose specific mandatory requirements for appointing qualified faculty members and principals, the word 'quality' is a tricky one. There is a huge variance in the quality of the qualifications that a person in India can acquire. You cannot equate a Ph.D. obtained from the say the IITs with one obtained from a fly-by-night school. However, both candidates can certainly be appointed professors since they do have the requisite Ph.D. qualification. One way to handle is to use the philosophy of "publish or perish" which will ensure that there is an emphasis on research output even after the Ph.D. has been obtained. One might argue that there are unverified and dubious "online" journals in which one could publish and once again quality will be suspect. Institutes need to insist on research and paper publications only in rated and peer reviewed journals. This will ensure quality and therefore equality in the overall standards of qualification.
The low financial packages in the education sector vis-à-vis the Industry: The pay and perks that many faculty get in India are not commensurate with rest of the world or even the rest of Asia. Faculty members have to become a "teaching machine" or take on "forced consulting" to generate the income needed to sustain a comfortable lifestyle and send their children to good schools. Thus, the effectiveness of their overall academic performance suffers. The package should be on par with the opportunity cost of having worked in the corporate domain. Ensuring decent package and providing incentives for scholarly work and effective performance are essential.
NO discipline: The unfortunate reality that I see in today's society is the general disregard for discipline and ethical values. Let's be clear that without either, there is no success or achievement whether personal or professional. Teachers and parents especially in the k to 12 age group have to do their bit in moulding the youth with these fundamental strengths. Collegiate and higher education should certainly reinforce these qualities and this is the only way to create super-performers who are also responsible corporate citizens.
Merit should prevail: Reservation should not take precedence over merit. If the government ensures access to basic, good and free education to all right from kindergarten the quota systems won't be necessary in higher education. The merit system has to supersede and include standardised tests as well as an overall assessment of the achievements, quality and potential of the student leaving no room for subjective interpretation. No student is 'unfit' but there may be 'misfits'. Everyone need not be a "book smart" person but can be "streetsmart".
Experiential learning: We need to focus on experiential learning besides class room teaching. Integrated and energised teaching should be encouraged. Also a questioning attitude among students must be encouraged and exams need to test that. The evaluation system currently encourages the students to master the 'art of cheating' as opposed to the 'science of teaching'.
Faculty members: Every class should have two faculty — one from industry stressing the business relevance and an academic who can bring "academic elegance" — the fundamental concepts and discipline of the subject. This way the shortage of academics can be filled to an extent with industry experts in an environment where the art of Leadership blends with the science of management. This is another way to ensure that the teachers are brought up to speed and they continue to learn.
In sum, several mandatory changes are required in the way that management education is delivered in India. More so since the avenues for gaining said knowledge are going to multiply in the coming years. The faculty members are neither challenged intellectually nor are they financially motivated to engage in research. Evaluation methods are compromised and experiential learning is close to zero. If this continues, there will be a large number of textbook managers who won't have the resourcefulness to excel in business and society. It is time to embrace the change.

How to migrate your old Synology to new Synology
Recently I have upgraded my good old Synology DS411slim to newer, bigger model - DS918+. I kinda started to run out of free space (1TB 2.5" x4) and decided to invest some money into new box and new drives. There is an official guide how you can do migration with disk swipe, but as I wanted to move my data to new drives I just decided I would try to rsync everything. And BTW there is a screen command if you would like to run in the background that can be found on synocommunity.

San Francisco sleaze connoisseurs Anthony Mansfield and Tal M Klein are back with their sixth joint EP under the AM/TM moniker; entitled, appropriately enough, Sleaze Please. If you file this track under nu-disco (or nu-anything for that matter), we will find you and punch you in the perineum. This is Sleaze music; it's dirty and unapologetic and will melt people's faces off.
The title track, "Sleaze Please," is not a modest number. She will destroy your bass-bins and kick you in the nuts. At last count this track features no less than 10 analog synthesizers you've never heard of and drum machines that were invented before you were born. This track is so heavy that when we put it on a scale our phone number showed up.
A mystery man who called himself Heisse Scheisse clandestinely delivered a monster remix on reel to reel tape inside a bullet proof suitcase which also contained a latex banana hammock. After billions of dollars of research and vaccines, our detective team found out the man behind the Heisse Scheisse remix was none other than Nick Chacona. When we confronted him with our findings he said, "What the hell were you thinking with that bassline, I fixed your stupid mess and made a better track than the original." He then shot us in the knees with a Desert Eagle .50 and took off in a solar powered jetpack.
The other original track on this EP is "U WANT 2" which basically repeats "you want to" until everyone gets naked and crazy. It's delicate like an elephant with rabies on PCP. We recommend this track to people who are tired of playing records that sound like broken records. It's big, it's bad, it'll make you glad.
Peter Kruder (Kruder & Dorfmeister / G-Stone) - "I like the Heisse Scheisse mix. I'll play this."
Sleazy McQueen - "'U WANT 2' … it's mental!"
Three (Hallucienda) - "Uber sleaze …"
Sunshine Jones (Dubtribe) - "Nice and filthy!"
Dr. Dunks (Still Going) - "SLEEEZY!!!"
Q-Burns Abstract Message - "All tracks within are deliciously slinky and stinky."
DJ Rocca (Ajello) - "Great release!"
Alex Flitsch (Connaisseur Recordings) - "Both the Heisse Scheisse remix and 'U WANT 2' sound great!"
Ulysses (Neurotic Drum Band) - "As a naked rabid elephant I prefer 'U WANT 2' when I smoke my PCP."
Jim Stanton (Horse Meat Disco) - "Cool mood on these. I like it. 'U WANT 2' is great."
mikeBurns (Disco Devil / Phönix Project) - "How low can you go? Love that hook on 'U WANT 2!' Great stuff."
Leri Ahel (Mutant Disco Radio Show) - "All there tracks are amazing. Love them all and really have been loving all the latest Aniligital releases."
Bruce Tantum (TimeOut NY) - "Very cool stuff. I'm loving the buzzy bass and grinding vibe. Can't wait to play these out!"
Bootsy (For The Love Radio Show) - "I love these guys' recent offerings. This is no exception. Class action."
Sandro Bianchi (Ibiza Sonica) - "Five out of five stars as usual for AM/TM. Love it and will play all the tracks for sure."

Krief, The Schomberg Fair
|23-Oct-2007 06:18 pm
|Contributed by: pete
|Concert Reviews
As part of the Two Way Monologues series of showcases, TWM #5 featured Krief, The Schomberg Fair, and Obviously Five Believers. The showcase took place at the small upstairs location of Rancho Relaxo. I can't say I've seen a lot of shows there, but I've been there a few times and have never seen it so packed - the turnout for The Schomberg Fair was just incredible, and that's on top of everyone that was there to see Krief.
KriefWhatever I said about Krief when I saw him play at the end of August still holds true. The set at Rancho Relaxo was similar to what I saw at the Rivoli, but some of the antics were toned down slightly. I was primed (in more ways than one) for Krief's set, and Lots of great music again.
I should mention that if you're using the recordings on MySpace to judge what you're going to see in concert, you may be misled. Krief plays those songs, but what comes out on stage is stronger and fuller, with bolder guitar licks. I asked Patrick about this discrepancy, and he says they are recording new material that more closely matches what they are playing at the shows. At least part of the difference could be that all parts on the EP were performed by Patrick Krief himself, but on stage he is joined by Andre Bendahan (bass), Roberto Piccioni (keyboards), and George Donoso III (drums) which do a great job filling in the sound, and providing musical encouragement for Patrick to let loose.
Info: Krief | Connect: MySpace
The Schomberg FairPlaying a sort of western-style folk country southern rock with an edge, The Schomberg Fair performed in front of a densely packed crowd made up of a variety of attendees, but it definitely included friends and acquaintances from their hometown of Schomberg (home of the Schomberg Agricultural Spring Fair, an agricultural event "showcasing small town life"). Matt Bahen (vocals, guitar, harmonica) provides most of the eye-catching swagger, but his band mate Nathan Sidon (bass) adds contrasting deep vocals that might just make you want to ride 'em in and count 'em out. Not my usual style of music for listening at home, but for a live show, they're definitely worth the pub-level cover price at the door.

Primorsky Krai
primorsky krai - пРИМОРСКИЙ КРАЙ (digital code 25)
Population amounts to about 650,000 people. Time: Moscow zone + 7 hours.
Vladivostok was founded in 1860 and soon became a major naval base. It is still is and will continue to be due to availability of numerous harbors suitable for the purpose.
A view over Golden Horn Bay.
The monument to the Fighters for Soviet Power in the Far East.
Thanks to the 2012 Asian Pacific Economic Conference held in Vladivostok, big changes occurred in the city. The most visible are two suspension bridges. The shorter one was built across Golden Horn Bay, the longer one spans the mainland and the Russky island.
In the late 19th and early 20th century sixteen protective forts were built around Vladivostok. Some of them have been turned into museums, some just remain unattended and open to public around the clock.

"The dispersal of an empty law makes judgment legitimate and
yet also completely arbitrary and thus an instrument of the exercise of unlimited authority. Law's emptiness—the absence of a content to the law—can become the ultimate trick that authority plays, namely, dissimulating a denial of content only so that everyone is forced to supply arbitrarily content every instant anew, and yet always with the same result—ascription of guilt. The emptiness of the law is universal, but in biopolitics this is understood as the license for everyone to pass an arbitrary judgment—that is, a judgment without concern for truth. In this sense, the prison without walls represented in The Trial can be viewed as the perfect depiction of the repressive emptiness of the law. This pure authority of the empty law is only possible because the law is dissociated from truth." – Dimitris Vardoulakis, "Kafka's Empty Law: Laughter and Freedom in The Trial" in Brendan Moran and Carlo Salzani (eds), Philosophy and Kafka, Lexington Books, 2013, pp. 33-52
