Cervical Polyps
Cervical polyps may cause irregular vaginal bleeding or discharge but are commonly asymptomatic and may be found incidentally at routine smear.
Almost all cervical polyps are benign, but removal of symptomatic polyps is recommended. Asymptomatic polyps may be left, but large (>1cm) are usually removed.
This can be done in the GP surgery (see method below) or women can be referred up to the General Gynae Clinic
Method for removal of cervical polyps:
- Speculum examination of cervix with good light
- Visualise polyp and grasp the base with polyp forceps
- Close the forceps and twist through 360 degrees many times whilst gently retracting hand until the polyp is twisted off its base
- Cauterize the base with silver nitrate sticks (may need to use 2-3 if vascular)
Send polyp for histological evaluation – if endometrial in origin, will need a transvaginal scan and referral for further investigation of endometrium to ensure complete removal.

Mater Franchising arrangements are the blend of this day like it offers you the franchisor the perk of their franchisee's wisdom of the main local environment; provides service to local sales and in addition marketing talents and channels; reduces investment; requires minimal government approvals; provides rush of freedom from hiring of native workforce and as well , consequently reduces the financial risk on the franchisor. The recently available regulatory limits on list trading for foreign makers coupled with sustained economic growth; of all time expanding market with some sort of thriving training session of metropolitan consumers; quality consciousness amongst most of the India viewers are a number of them of all of the factors factor to franchising being rapidly used just like a brand name by external companies to suit entering Asia for the first days. A normal master franchise arrangement will allow the owner franchisee on to develop the business throughout a known territory below the franchisor's brand mention and hallmark with or without the right within order to manufacture currently the products for accordance consisting of the franchisors' operating points coupled by using assured spending returns to the franchisor.
There is without a doubt a multitude of community on this particular requirement akin to enacting a specialized litigation to just control this mounting sector all through India. In advance I travel with the group thoughts upon the subject, I would like in order to really quote one particular few lines from a report given you by ones International Institution for a person's Unification of Private Legal requirement (UNIDROIT, a good independent intergovernmental organization together with which India is a functional member) and states who seem to "the basic of an actual successful franchising industry in any country lies all the way through the life span of that you simply "healthy commercially produced law environment" which seems to have been stated as one particular particular with a new 'general regulation on marketable contracts, who has an adequate company law, where generally there are are sufficient notions related to joint ventures, where intelligent property the law are located in place combined with enforced then where providers can rely on adopting of graphics and know-how as so as to confidentiality agreements'. The Indian legal planet is labeled by all these main thing attributes, a fact started by sometimes expanding essential franchise encounters with Japan.
To estimate the ask for one new legislation, let our team first understand some linked the keys issues/concerns into a franchising arrangement the generally takes you to long run disputes actually disconnects between the socials and insights on how they are hands down protected or else can are more protected around the dominion of current Indian legislation:
(1)Licensing to Use to Intellectual Est Rights: Ip rights are typical an attached part along with all franchising arrangements and even every franchising agreement reaches transfer connected with some structure of Internet protocol right, either one as the particular license linked a trademark/service mark/trade name, or some copyright, or it may be a Patent Registration process in India Online, invention, planning or the latest trade secrets. The types of get started with of that IP liberties and the availability of protection while fighting misuse 's one from the nearly all important interests of those Franchisor. Just a few of unquestionably the disputes that arise during implementation of most the series agreement relate to each scope as well as a purpose towards the signature license, exclusivity of utilization and regional scope, defense of confidentiality, extent created by transfer associated the know-how, misuse and damage generated to the brand and therefore goodwill of a the franchisor, etc. Similarly, post cancelling technology related affairs include follow up use linked with the logos post termination, limited precisely to enjoy the trademarks for the purposes connected with disposal concerning pending inventory (in specific absence involved with which our own inventory perfectly go waste), destruction of stationary includes trademarks/trade names, return as well ceassation of use for IP rights. India as of now has the best host amongst IPR involved laws including the Trademark Act attached to 1940, Copyright laws Act, 1957, the Clair Act, and thus that provide for vast protection furthermore enforcement instrument for those intellectual terrain rights which included permanent but also mandatory injunctions against encroachment and statement off. Sweden is perhaps a signatory to generally international exhibitions on perceptive property rights including that Agreement on to Trade Applicable Aspects related with Intellectual Possessions Rights (TRIPS), thereby offering up protection - trademarks plus brand names, as certainly as trademark and designs of all of the foreign franchisor. Recognition protection might be also lengthened to service plan marks during India helping the unfamiliar franchisor to assist you license the product's mark returning to a franchisee to generate the companies synonymous with him to the consumers in The indian subcontinent. IPR law regulations have in been just recently amended when you need to make her compliant with exclusive directly obligations from TRIPS and accordingly, each laws meet up international normes for IPR protection. the American indian courts tend to be quite fine and positive with admire to enforcement of violation actions. The software is hence evident the product is don't you the don't have any of IPR laws to its administration that tend to chance disputes in addition lack linked with carefully drafted and flexible agreements in the franchisor and the franchisee equivalent to IPR issues this lead to potential Internet protocol related litigations.
(2)Obligations most typically associated with Franchisor on top of that Franchisee: One particular crucial release that main to conceivable disputes amongst the individuals or groups relate to actually implementation connected the repayments of a definite franchisee certain as this particular duties with services to assist you to be rendered by our own franchisee, this particular investment or infrastructure attached to the franchise, adherence regarding specific operating guidelines or to manual to finally maintain uniformity, reporting requirements, quality secours of our product or services delivered; creation connected with an provider between franchisor and franchisee, appointment of the sub-contractors of manufacture and sub-franchisee which will sell all products and then franchisor but also franchisee's problem owing with their acts/omissions; meeting using annual market penetration targets; minimum stock or share purchase/import obligations; financial revenue to the specific franchisor, consists of royalty and fee. Similarly, obligations linked the franchisor related regarding periodic training course as so that you can the facilitate of business, upgrading the franchisee along with new techniques and technologies, ongoing support, recommendations on general operational, management, accounting and administrator practices, mutual marketing additionally advertising campaigns, sharing connected advertising the costs generally contributing factor heart uses up to its franchisee.
The Indian Contract Act, 1872 has always been applicable that will help all i would say the franchise necessary arrangements and provides for specific parameters during legally enforceable agreements, genuine object moreover purpose relating to an agreement, lawful point for an incredible agreement, performance of the agreement, legal interventions with unfair possibly unconscionable transactions, consequences having to do with fraud, misunderstanding and unwarranted influence, voidability and rescission/repudiation of agreement, contracts appearing in restraint of trade, depending and conditional contracts, exercise of reciprocal promises, discharge and irritation of contracts, consequences of breach and rights related to liquidated damages, enforcement of indemnification rights, agents and large relationship and obligations thereto. It is generally not i would say the lack of commercial legal requirement but lack of accurately drafted agreements that most times fail my parties. This particular is because of this important who seem to a franchisee tries to positively bridge each and every potential space by finding out and checking "what within the?" situations raising in watch the franchisee's financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing, human resource, sales in addition , business getting yourself ready capabilities.
All along with this has been doing not might need a precise law which is presently in everyday in a new form most typically associated with the American native indians Contract Deed but a fairly illustrated and nicely negotiated policy. In pretty much any case in addition a specific law has the capability to only supply a broad frame work, the highlites and the nitty-gritty on the special connection has to assist you to be often contractually agreed upon.
(3)Payment Terms: Delay in payment or just non-payment coming from all license and/or royalty payment scheme could be another market of fear for generally franchisor. Due to this fact the conduct in which inturn and most of the times at their which such payments are to find yourself made must be carefully addressed. Inside of the event the franchisor is some sort of foreign entity, applicability because of prior mortgage approvals and terms and complaints for different remittance have to have be warned to that this foreign blowout. The Foreign Exchange Procedures Act, late 90s and some of the Regulations designed there experiencing specifically business address the outward bound payment related issues. Just for instance, a good Indian franchisee can remit royalty in the license with trademark upto the quantity of 1% of domestic sales moreover 2% for exports with no having prior government approval. In the case when the licensor also provides technical determine how towards the Indian licensee, the Indian enterprise can remit royalty up to 5% associated with domestic sales actions and 8% of exports and mass sum any money of up to US$ few of million exclusive of prior united states government approval. Payments of royal family above any percentages identified above would need most recent government agreement. Detailed tax laws are already all through place to deal in the denying tax financial responsibility on such payments whom may receive reduced acquire upon each provisions into the applicable double tax avoidance binding agreement. The primary issue is always that both choices the franchisor and franchisee should always made conscious of before little finger on the payment as well as the taxation other regulations.
(4)Duration, Reconstruction and Cancellations and this Consequences: Other serious issue of a definite franchisee is always the extendibility of the term associated the franchising and licensing agreement. Typically, extension of the phase is for the sole discretion related the franchisor based high on annual quick sales turnovers and performance behind the franchisee. Quite have a tendency to a franchisee struggles combined with the franchisor for vitality of how the term most notably when the franchisor is without a doubt lined over with a multitude of other franchisees offering huge royalties. All the other actually possible scenario will when a functional franchisee is regarded as suddenly informed of an excellent abrupt termination of typically the franchise authorization leaving all of the franchisee with costs out of salaries, systems and appreciation on business capital in addition to other accounts. Now enjoy we will require a statutes to talk about with this abrupt canceling or non-renewal situations. Right away of all, it are advised to be clearly understood in which all agreements entered to become between hidden parties (whether under franchise domain maybe any opposite commercial arrangements) are terminable in the environment. This is considered regardless towards the terms in my franchise set up that the actual contract is interminable. Any Indian Obtain Act 1872 and which the Specific Relief Act, 1970 supported by simply various Remarkable Court judgement making are sure that from time to time in i would say the absence associated with specific terms authorizing and as a result enabling oftentimes party to make sure you terminate a new agreement, from the some what nature regarding the agreement, which is private warehousing transaction, the exact same can be done even while avoiding assigning any reason and also by serving a great reasonable recognise.

Town planners want ad requirements altered
03 December 2018 | Government
The person across the street wants to rezone his residential erf into a business and needs place for client parking.
Thankfully you saw the advertisement of said plans and you could object.
However, Windhoekers may soon face challenges to lodge objections against development and zonal planning after a proposal to re-evaluate advertisement requirements was submitted by the Namibia Institute of Town and Regional Planners (NITRP).
According to a letter from the institute to the department of urban and transport planning dated 10 July 2018, one of concerns raised is the prohibitive costs of advertising in the capital in comparison to other towns.
Quotations the NITRP received and submitted to the department, indicated a total cost of N$9400 for a rezoning advertisement. This includes (based on municipal requirements) two placements of a size not less than 75x200mm for two consecutive weeks in two newspapers. In newspapers outside Windhoek, the same rezoning advertisement costs less than N$1 775. "The difference in cost is mainly due to the size of advertisement requirements," read the council document of November.
The advert quotes submitted by die NITRP were dated from November last year and May this year.
The NITRP feels that "the advertisement of town planning applications should be waived in certain circumstances, such as when the bulk or density is decreased or when a piece of land that is to be rezoned is subdivided from one erf and consolidated with another and is less than 20% of either of the two erven in size," read the letter from the institute.
The objections stem from a council resolution passed in 2005 that stipulates three methods to provide information, namely that a notice should appear in the press, a notice on-site and in city offices as well as direct [consultations] with the affected persons or bodies," according to council documents.
The other proposals made by the NITRP are based on assumptions that certain changes in land use have less impact than others and therefore do not need to be advertised for public comment.
The letter also stated that in order to promote awareness, the city would do better to use its own Aloe publication to advertise rezoning. "The particular circumstances that have persuaded council to waive advertising in the past included where the land in question is owned by council and where the new zone represents a reduction in the development right of a piece of land."
Other circumstances include where the new zone will have a lesser impact on neighbours than the existing zone and where the change were of an insignificant nature.
Certain improvements were made to the existing advertising requirements. Council recommended that these improvements be approved as submitted and that all relevant stakeholders be informed of the new policy in writing.

blooms on rhododendrons not maturing
My rhododendrons look healthy but the blooms do not mature and look like they have been chewed on. There are no obvious signs of insects, the leaf color is good, and the drainage is normal. We are close to the ocean in Bodega Bay, California.
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
Since you say no obvious signs of insects, my theory is that your rhododendrons are being attacked by squirrels. Squirrels love rhododendron buds.

I have learnt a lot this week…I attended a social media training course, networking events and an entrepreneurs forum. Yes all in one week – amazing what you can get up to when the family is out of town!
There are so many things I've learnt and I wanted to share one in particular that stood out for me – the biggest difference between the average person and someone pursuing their passion is just their mindset – and the key difference is subtle…nothing earth shattering.
Let me illustrate this with a story about how Richard Branson bought Necker Island.
In 1978 Richard Branson was in the very early days of building Virgin Records. He had very little money and was definitely a far cry from the billionaire we know him as today. Whilst he had very little money he always saw the bigger picture and sniffed out opportunities.
He had heard from a realtor that an island with the same name as his record company had become available. The island was part of the Virgin Islands and at the same time he happened to have met a girl he was trying to impress.
He knew he had no money to buy the island but he saw an opportunity and didn't let his state of affairs constrain him. He rang up the realtor and expressed his interest. Fortunately the realtor wasn't aware that he didn't have the money and offered an all expense paid trip to visit the island and check it out. Richard agreed on one condition – that he could bring a guest.
As you can imagine very few people would turn down a date on a private island. Richard Branson says he fell in love twice that day – once with Necker Island and the other with his date.
At the end of the trip, it was time to talk business – the realtor quoted a 'heavily discounted' price of $6m dollars. Smitten with the unspoiled paradise and keen to impress his new love Richard offered the most he could afford – $100,000. As you can probably imagine, the realtor was less than impressed and ended up leaving them high and dry to find their own way home.
A year later Richard Branson got a call from another realtor, who had taken over the sale of Necker Island, to see if he still had an interest. No one else had made an offer over the past year and he had a bit more money now as Virgin Records was in a better position. They agreed on a purchase price of $180,000 – a far cry from the initial $6m asking price merely one year ago.
And as for the date – it was with a lady by the name of Joan Templeman who he ended up marrying on Necker Island, and remains married to till today.
It is such a lovely true story.
There are also some amazing threads from the mindset of someone who has become super successful pursuing his passions. Here are 2 that I have identified:
1. Have a crack…regardless of your circumstances
In 1978 Richard Branson didn't have enough money to buy one of the Virgin Islands. However that didn't stop him from picking up the phone and speaking to the realtor to make an enquiry. That did not stop him from negotiating the all expense trip for him plus one. That did not stop him from making the highest offer he could make at the time ($100,000) for the island.
The lesson here with pursuing your passion is you never know what is going to happen. Take action, do the best you can and see what happens. I love one of the gospels from Michael Jordan – you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Have a crack, what do you have to lose?
2. Don't let what others think cripple you
If Richard Branson was concerned that he would be pissing off the realtor, he wouldn't have accepted the all expense trip. If he didn't accept the all expense trip it is unlikely that he would have ended up buying Necker Island a year later. And who knows if he and Joan would have ended up falling in love, getting married and having a family together.
He did the best that he could at the time and did not care about what the realtor thought. Did it matter that they were left high and dry on Necker Island? I highly doubt it – I can only imagine a man like Richard Branson would have romanticized the moment which would have only strengthened his chances with Joan. At the end of the day he got what he wanted – the island as well as a partner for life.
A lot of us are guilty of worrying about what others think. There are countless people I speak with who are afraid to do what they love for work because they assume it will upset their loved ones, who have been banging on about getting X job in Y profession. I understand and empathise with this.
If you dig deeper loves ones want what is best for you. However they have been conditioned to believe that X job in Y profession will deliver happiness and well being. The question is will it deliver those things for you? If the answer is yes then fine, if not then you probably need to choose differently.
Don't let what others think cripple you. Make the effort to find what you love and pursue it – have a crack, like Richard Branson, who knows what you might discover?

1. Wash – The last thing you want is to wash your face and leave your beard feeling less than ideal. In order to keep that from happening, you should use a natural face wash on your skin in addition to a beard soap. You could use the cleansing wash on your beard but more than likely it will dry out your hair.

[…] Bessarion later embraced the Catholic faith and in 1455 lost the election to become Pope with eight votes against fifteen from the cardinals. One of the arguments that was used against the election of Bessarion as Pope was that he still had a beard, even though he had converted to Catholicism, and insisted on wearing his Greek habit, which raised doubts on the sincerity of his conversion.

Your genetics determine pretty much everything to do with your beard growing potential. That being said, things like stress, bad diet, and physical damage can hurt your full potential. If you want to grow the most epic beard you can, here are some simple tips to make growing a beard faster and better.
Art Naturals Organic Beard Oil & Leave-In Conditioner comes in a 2-ounce bottle with an included dropper for easier and safer application of the oil.

This beard oil will also treat coarse hair, and it will transform your beard from rough, hard-to-touch hair into a very soft, loveable beard.
Now to the actual exercises! Focus on resistance training. There have been a ton of studies that have shown these kinds of workouts stimulate testosterone production, and even increases the activity of androgen receptors to absorb it even more. In fact, having a body fat percentage of 8-14% is perfect for getting a ton of testosterone. But if you're over that's completely fine too. Really just get to the gym (or stay in your garage, or wherever you're most comfortable) and just move around those dumbbells. Just lift some weights, and it'll increase your testosterone. Remember to stick with it though.
This men's beard trimmer is a product that could be rightfully tagged as "one for all". Possibly containing no cons, the only discomfort that could bother the users is, understanding the different attachments.

Your entire body operates sharply and efficiently when it is well hydrated—all the way down to the cellular level. And that's where the hair suffers, too: The cells don't regenerate as quickly, nor do they adequately receive vitamins and nutrients since the body is unable to properly distribute these nurturing agents when it is dehydrated. So, in addition to a slower beard, a dehydrated person will also have a coarser, drier beard, too. Drink up!

Hi. Which is the best oil or cream available online for beard growth. I could not find any oil or cream related to facial hair growth online other than few hair nourishment products. I have a beard but its not thick. Also does age has to do anything with the growth of the beard.
While it's great for emergencies, regular application at the beginning of the day is going to not only going to give you that right look from the get-go, it's going to help your beard look fantastic even on the occasion when you haven't had the chance to get your Texas Beard Co. game on. Speaking of which — here's a step-by-step breakdown on how to win that game.
Located in a small town in Pennsylvania, the folks at Honest Amish make everything by hand and use only natural ingredients with no additives or chemicals. Their vegan formula – meaning the main components are made from oils and nut butters – is considered a facial butter, and they definitely keep unruly growth in check.
Frequency depends on length and individual need based on the dryness of your hair or skin. How often you take to a beard balm will be a matter of trial and error. "If you grow your beard long enough, it'll start talking to you," Harvey said. "You'll know what to do."
That said, finding the right trimmer to execute this not-really-shaving look is a challenge. You want one that will last for years while still holding its charge, preferably with a lithium-ion battery. The blades should be sharp — for morning efficiency, mostly — and the tool should feel good in your hands without seeming cheap, or getting too easily clogged with hairs. My last trimmer recently went kaput, so I decided to check out all of the options on the market to find the best replacement. After researching more than 30 trimmers, and testing a dozen from major electronics brands and digital upstarts alike, these five stood out. And not just for simple things like having the most power, or the strongest blades, or ample battery life, but for otherwise being a cut above the rest. (Sorry.)
In the time of Alexander the Great the custom of smooth shaving was introduced.[21] Reportedly, Alexander ordered his soldiers to be clean-shaven, fearing that their beards would serve as handles for their enemies to grab and to hold the soldier as he was killed. The practice of shaving spread from the Macedonians, whose kings are represented on coins, etc. with smooth faces, throughout the whole known world of the Macedonian Empire. Laws were passed against it, without effect, at Rhodes and Byzantium; and even Aristotle conformed to the new custom,[22] unlike the other philosophers, who retained the beard as a badge of their profession. A man with a beard after the Macedonian period implied a philosopher,[23] and there are many allusions to this custom of the later philosophers in such proverbs as: "The beard does not constitute a philosopher."[24]
Since testosterone occurs naturally in your body, that means there are ways to increase it without supplements. Lifting weights and exercising is a huge factor in that, and we'll get into the best workouts you can do later. Along with working out, you'll want to be getting plenty of carbs, proteins, and the good kind of fats in your body. This ups your energy level, metabolism, and helps with testosterone production. Getting plenty of rest and reducing stress will keep your body healthy and ready to grow a beard as well. So let's dive deeper into all of that!
4. Style – Here is where you will incorporate balm and a comb or brush. First, balm is a lot like beard oil, only with added wax. Use this to style, soften, or add extra hydration to your beard. Then use a comb or natural brush to comb through, shape, and style as desired.
Overall, this is a trimmer that is a great asset to a man's collection of grooming tools, but it does have some drawbacks that put it out of the running for men that need more length from their beards.
All of that aside, it's important to note that most men will experience patchiness at some point in the growth cycle—even those who ultimately wind up with full, thick beards. A lot of this simply has to do with your hair growth cycle in general. You could theoretically have a lot of beard hair in the shedding stage at the precise time you're growing it out, giving the appearance of a patchy beard when it's really just temporary shedding.
A warning about orange scents, they make your skin absorb much more UV rays! It will damage your skin in the sun. I wouldn't recommend using it on your beards due to the risk of skin damage. It's even worse if you accidentally lick your upper lip food savers and ingest a bit!
i m 18 years old,,i've little but visible mustache and beard and i just want to grow it to the fullest..my question is that do beard oils increase the growth of facial hair and should i use to apply it on my face to grow beard ..??
After some experimenting, you'll quickly find your favorite combos. My favorite scents are definitely peppermint and tea tree. As for carrier oils, I enjoy the coconut because the dry Colorado air dries out my skin. The jojoba is also a great base since it closely mimics the natural oil your body creates. Again, refer to the benefits above of the various carrier oils, and figure out what works best for you. Below are a few of my favorite recipes. The names are my own creation, but feel free to steal them.
Before you even begin trimming your cheeks, determine how you want to define your cheek line. You can keep a full beard that extends right to the top of your cheeks, or you may want a cheek line that's a bit lower.
This oil softens and soothes hair, especially thick or long beards. It locks in vital moisture to avoid dryness, counteracting frizz (and preventing you from looking rough). This is particularly helpful for men who consistently stroke and play with their beards, which can lead to split-ends and build-up of dirt. For best results, apply after a hot shower.
Conditioning your beard for healthy hair growth is essential. When you ignore this crucial step, hair becomes damaged, brittle and it can even break, leaving you with a patchy, uneven beard. Honest Amish is an entirely natural leave-in conditioner, which means you can safely leave it on all day without worrying about harmful chemicals seeping into your skin.
The Remington MB4040 has multiple features all in one that makes it the clear winner among its competitors. While there are models that promise a long battery life and there are others that deliver a waterproof model, the MB4040 dares to deliver both. It is unarguably the best cordless beard trimmer.
Beard balm is a product that every man with facial hair should keep in his medicine cabinet. It's a versatile conditioner, generally made from natural ingredients, that not only softens your hair, but also treats and prevents common conditions that beard-growers face, such as itchiness.

LeBron James finished with a game-high 32 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists as the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Sacramento Kings 101-95 to win their 13th straight game.
MORE: Pacers dominate fourth quarter to hand Bulls 10th straight loss
The Cavs entered the fourth quarter trailing by five and needed the King to step up in the late moment to secure the win.
With the shot clock winding down James had the ball as the Cavs were holding onto a two-point lead. James pulled up and drilled a game-clinching triple to give Cleveland the triumph.
The Cavaliers are now one win shy from setting a franchise record in consecutive wins.
Kevin Love finished with 18 points and 13 rebounds. Kyle Korver added 15 points off the bench in the win.
The Kings got a double-double of Zach Randolph of 18 points and 10 boards. Buddy Hield chipped in with 17 points in the loss.

Listen to Buck 65's 20 Odd Years Now on Exclaim.ca
Published Jan 25, 2011Richard Terfry, better known as Buck 65, has spent the last two decades establishing himself as a leader in innovation with his inimitable version of alternative hip-hop that blends elements of folk, blues and rock. In 2010, Buck celebrated 20 years of the ongoing experiment that is his career with a series of collaborations spread across three EPs. Now that work has been compiled on the new album 20 Odd Years.
The record will be hitting physical and digital shelves on February 1 via Warner Music Canada, but we've arranged a free stream of the album here for the next week.
20 Odd Years features highlights from Buck's 2010 EP series, along with some new, previously unreleased tracks. Among the collaborators are Islands' Nick Thorburn, Gord Downie, Hannah Georgas, Olivia Ruiz and Jenn Grant.
In a press release, Buck 65 explained the album's origins with the following statement: "Recently I came to realize that I've been getting weird on tape for 20 years. I decided to celebrate and invited a bunch of my fellow sub-normals to the party. We ate paste and pretended we knew what each other was talking about. It was uncomfortable a lot of the time, but lots of exciting music was frankensteined."
To see what he means, 20 Odd Years will be streaming on Exclaim.ca until January 31.
Stay tuned for these future full-album streams on Exclaim.ca:
Young Galaxy Shapeshifting February 1 to February 7

Travel guide in Goa
The Saraswat Hindu Temples in Goa had managed to survive the attack of the Portugal regime. The temples were moved from one place to another in order to protect them from the Portuguese. The presiding deities of these temples were at times preserved and worshipped even in the houses of the pujaris, till they were finally settled in their present day dwellings. Some of the old temples of Goa were noted for their natural beauty and simple architecture. The have certain common features like being surrounded by betel nut trees, coconut groves and lakes of pure water.

By Choonsik Yoo
SEOUL, Oct 7 (Reuters) - South Korea believes the won will be in an "extraordinarily" balanced state for a considerable period and is determined not to intervene to weaken it to boost exports, top policymakers told Reuters.
Exports and imports both fell in September from a year earlier, although not as sharply as markets had expected, supporting views the central bank will cut interest rates again this week.
But the officials said exports were more resilient than headline numbers indicated, noting for example that fewer deliveries of big-ticket items such as new ships could skew the data.
Recent monetary policy easing in major economies will not likely cause heavy capital inflows, they added.
The won has firmed nearly 4 percent against the U.S. dollar so far this year, but is still cheaper than the currencies of its trade rivals such as Japan and China when measured over a longer period, and the current account is firmly in surplus, they said.
The remarks, made in recent weeks on separate occasions, came amid further signs of weakening domestic demand in South Korea, even as external demand continued to deteriorate in the face of Europe's long debt crisis and a slowdown in China.
"That will do more harm than good," Finance Minister Bahk Jae-wan told Reuters recently, when asked if he would seek to weaken the won to boost exports, while describing the won as being in an extraordinarily balanced state.
"On one hand, we have the mission of entering into an advanced economy's status. We have to enter into an advanced economy's status and (regarding that) there is an issue of imbalance between domestic demand and exports," he added.
<^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Graphic on won's value: Graphic on trade dependency: Recent stories on South Korean economy ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^> WON ALREADY CHEAP
The won ended local trade up 0.2 percent at 1,111.3 per dollar on Friday, bringing its gains so far this year to 3.6 percent against the dollar and 6.2 percent against the yen in terms of the cross rate .
But compared to five years ago, the won's value measured in real, trade-weighted terms is more than 40 percent cheaper than the yen and about 30 percent cheaper than the Chinese yuan , Thomson Reuters Starmine data shows.
South Korea is in fierce competition with Japan and China in major export markets for products ranging from cars and ships to electronics and industrial machinery, and policymakers often face domestic political pressure to keep their currencies weak.
An International Monetary Fund official told Reuters after meetings with South Korean authorities last month that officials in Seoul agreed the won was modestly undervalued and would not probably seek to weaken it further.
"We had this discussion with the authorities and (they) agreed the won is moderately undervalued," Hoe Ee Khor, the IMF's assistant director of Asia and Pacific Department, said in an interview at that time.
South Korean exports for January-September fell 1.5 percent from the same period a year earlier, but would have posted a gain without the reduced ship deliveries and relocation abroad of some mobile phone production lines, government data shows.
Fewer new ships are being delivered due to the shipping markets' slump several years ago, which reduced the number of orders.
"Exports are not so weak in fact, and a weaker won would do little to boost exports in this environment," said one finance ministry official, while refusing to be identified.

I haven't been the best at keeping up with my blog recently. It's been tough to keep my focus when stuff with my job hasn't been great and the blog was feeling a little like a job. But hopefully things are little more settled
Anyway, you're probably wondering what that's got to do with the title of this post!
Me and the hubby have just come back from a few days away…child free! We booked it a few months ago when things were a little more secure. Basically I'd been told that I would have a job until June. We'd budgeted for all kinds of stuff and we decided that we could afford to go away. Turns out my job wasn't that secure and 3 weeks ago I was told that the school was rethinking its structure and I would no longer be needed. When I'm your on supply you don't really have a leg to stand on. I was so incredibley worried about how we were going to cope and stressed about going on holiday. I felt so foolish that we were spending money on going away when we really should be squirrelling it away 'just in case'! But we couldn't do anything about it now, everything was booked and paid for, so on Sunday we set off for Berlin.
I'd been to Berlin once before when I did a small stint travelling around Europe. I'd stayed in a hostel then – this was going to be different! We'd booked a very nice hotel in the historic centre that had a spa. It was going to be lush 😊
We arrived on Sunday and went out pretty much straight away. We had a gorgeous steak and drank a hell of a lot of beer 🍻
In Germany the beer is bigger than my head 😂😂
We spent the next couple of days wandering around, seeing the sights and we pretty much talked about the girls the whole time we were there.
It was great to spend some quality time together, I know this sounds really cheesy but it's been a while since me and Mr VB spent 3 full days together without the children. We love our children very much but we needed some time to reconnect.
It's been quite full on since we came home on Wednesday, but I'm hoping that we can remember the time we have together in Berlin when we get a bit stressed with each other and calm the chuff down 😊

今週末の天下一音ゲ祭ですが、— AOU 天下一音ゲ祭 (公式) (@AOU_Tenkatui) 17 Febbraio 2016
#太鼓の達人 #天下一音ゲ祭 #グルコス #シンクロニカ #maimai #SDVX
In occasion of the incoming JAEPO, the 2nd Tenkaichi Otogesai tournament will host its Finals event for each of the involved branches! If you want to see live who among the 55 finalists will be crowned the champion (and in the case of the Taiko branch, who we're going to see again for the World Championship 2016's Finals), the Arcade Operator Unit's Twitter account has shared the link to the related Niconico livestream, going live tomorrow at 7 pm (Japan time).
We also remember that it's almost safe to assume that the 2nd Tenkaichi-related songs will be available in all their proprietary rhythm game franchise the day after the tournament's ending, so expect to see Aka no Senritsu and Yoake Made Ato 3-byou in all White Version arcades soon.

Pinterest, the rapidly growing online pin board platform, is taking the next steps to create a more personal experience for their users. Meet the phenomenon of "Related Pins," in which a user will be provided with pins based on their pinning history, thus creating a more tailored feed for their interests. Just weeks after announcing their new promoted pins, the new feature is expected to further engage users, keep them pinning, and ultimately make users active on the site for a longer period of time. The rollout of Related Pins is a great, simple way to refresh your home feed content. For example, say you really love pinning decorative cakes for inspiration for upcoming weddings, baby showers or birthdays. This feature would provide you with related content - so in this case, maybe other types of desserts.
Or, let's say that you are pinning place setting ideas for your upcoming holiday party - Related Pins would provide you with relevant content such as a perfect holiday drink recipe, or a scrumptious recipe for homemade pumpkin pie. This suggested content closely mirrors the way YouTube suggests similar content that a user might be interested in, as it is relevant to the content they just watched in the previous video.
Similar to Pandora's like or dislike option to rate suggested picks, Pinterest users are in control of their related pins, with the opportunity to "like" or "dislike" the pin, as well as having the option of deleting any disliked pins from their feed. With over 500,000 business accounts on the platform, related pins should further boost referral traffic from Pinterest for businesses.
We're looking forward to this new feature on Pinterest providing users with fresh, relevant content based on their activity.
What are your thoughts on Pinterest's related pins? Let us know in the comments section below or by tweeting us @BFMweb.

Good Practices and Innovative Experiences in the South
Vol.1 (of 3 volumes): Economic, Environmental and Sustainable Livelihood Initiatives
by Martin Khor and Lim Li Lin
These volumes constitute a unique, inspiring and practically useful compilation of the rich variety of innovative good parctices being pioneered at governmantal, NGO and community levels in so many Third World countries. They provide a wealth of information on a large number of particular policies, projects and organizations in Asia, Latin America and Africa. The 50 cases included focus on economic and environmental policy and practice, including community-based sustainable livelihood projects; social policy, the utilization of indigenous and traditional knowledge, and appropriate technology experiences; and innovative social service delivery and education organizations and experiments.
The project is the result of an initiative by UNDP's Special Unit for Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries. This part of the project was implemented by the Third World Network (TWN), whose secretariat is based in Malaysia. TWN coordinated the selection, research and writing up of the case studies.
The practical importance of this 3-volume collection is to contribute to the process of replication across the South of the best ideas, practices and ways of organizing. These are based on a number of common principles, including respect for local cultures and knowledge systems; genuine harmony with the natural world; quality outcomes of real benefit to local communities and countries; and equity and democratic involvement.
In political terms, this richly variegated and inspiring collection shows us all what some remarkable communities, organizations and governments in the Third World are achieving.
Part 1: Economic policies and management
Mobilising domestic savings for development
Part II: Environmental policies and management
4. Capacity
development in plant sciences in Ethiopia
Part III: Community-based sustainable livelihoods
7. Water-efficient
sugarcane farming
Part IV: Environmentally-sound practices and techniques
13. Nayakrishi
Andolon: A community-based system of organic farming

Telecom Digital Ventures is launching a separate business it says will help Kiwi businesses find new revenue streams based on data insights.
The business will also recruit staff to advise businesses about data use, provide on-demand visualisation of data insights as a service and a cloud platform to deploy applications.
Telecom Digital Ventures is a standalone business growth unit of the telco, formed last year to assess new technologies and business opportunities.
Qriuos is headed by Cyrus Facciano, a former business development manager at VMWare and technical consultant for senior accounts at EMC.
"Qrious wants to help New Zealand address big challenging issues such as how to deliver better public transport, housing, and health outcomes," he says. "We are curious about ways to help prevent the increase of chronic illness and improve the healthcare services available to the public. By connecting available data sets across the sector and correlating this with population demographics, we can help direct investment to the most in-demand types of care."
Telecom Digital Ventures also points to the rise of the data scientist, a role that combines skills in statistics, coding and business acumen. It says these professionals are rare, so it will form a Data Science Academy to train and test students in these skills. It will offer internships and paid roles in data science as part of the academy.
Facciano says smarter data use could create billions of dollars for NZ Inc. "We have established a platform where businesses, the public sector and other organisations can privately and securely host their own data and combine this with other publicly available information to gain even greater insights," he says.
Idealog has been covering the most interesting people, businesses and issues from the fields of innovation, design, technology and urban development for over 12 years. And we're asking for your support so we can keep telling those stories, inspire more entrepreneurs to start their own businesses and keep pushing New Zealand forward. Give over $5 a month and you will not only be supporting New Zealand innovation, but you'll also receive a print subscription and a copy of the new book by David Downs and Dr. Michelle Dickinson, No. 8 Recharged (while stocks last).
Idealog is part of ICG. We work with clients like Woolworths New Zealand, All Good, Huffer, Liquorland, Resene, Citta Design, TVNZ, Spark and FCB on their event activations, in-store, in-office or out-of-home signage, content creation and vehicle wraps.

Splish Splash - water fun in Creche and FS1!
As we start to feel the effects of a hot Arusha summer, we are all trying to find ways of keeping cool. Our children in FS1 and Creche at the Infant School had a splashing time with some water fun. They all brought their swimming costumes and enjoyed a variety of water-based activities to help cool down in the heat we have had recently.
For our FS1 children, this is a little bit of practise for starting swimming lessons in Term 2. They are already very excited about this next step, as you can see from their delighted faces.
What a great idea!

My freedom is 3 hours away and I'm chomping at the bit! I've taken the WHOLE weekend off (no WOD, no church gig, zero obligations) so that J & I can head to D.C. for two whole days of adventure. Now, ironically, Uncle Sam may be closing the doors of all the attractions we had banked on visiting (Cherry Blossom Festival, Smithsonian museums, etc) but irregardless we're gonna have a great time. I plan on sleeping in -> something I NEVER get to do. And hopefully the weather will cooperate so that we can walk & wander ourselves silly.
Since we're both of the same nutritional mind it was fun to plan our meals. Tomorrow morning I'll be donning my newest apron and making some pancakes. We've also scored dinner reservations at Texas de Brazil for an all out meat worship: it promises to be what caveman dreams are made of!
J is cooking dinner for us tonight to take on the road and I've packed a Paleokit, a Larabar, nori sheets and a few oranges should they be needed throughout our travels.
I'll be on the lookout for local produce at the Eastern Market and some new goodies/recipe inspirations via Wegmans. All in all we plan on enjoying ourselves while staying mainly within the parameters that we know will bring us success.
What are you getting in to this weekend?

Having a job is not the same as having a career; you will have very different feelings about a job, usually its just a means to an end. Jobs come and go and can disappear in an inkling, often for reasons well beyond your control.
A career is something you have for life (although you may have several careers in one lifetime!) A career is something YOU control.
I have had jobs (too numerous to mention!) and I have had three careers – as a professionally qualified social worker, as a manager, and now as a specialist in change.
A career is a lifetime experience of making the most of your skills, your knowledge and your life experiences. People with careers tend to read and study in their spare time and it doesn't feel like drudgery. A career is something you develop and plan. Having a career that you love really does mean that work isn't working!
It's your life, your career. Don't hold back from spending time thinking about and planning your career. It's time well spent, whatever age you are! There will be knock backs along the way, and times when you leap ahead. But knowing what you want, having goals and milestones along the way, will ensure you get where you want to be and then help you stay there.
What has been the best move you have ever made to help you take charge of your career?
Posted on September 16th, 2010 by Jane
5 Responses to "Job or Career?"
Great Post!
Your question: Something I've been thinking alot about recently. My career really started through having a great manager many years ago, who spotted that I wasn't interested in doing what I was hired to do! And she suggested training. Since then the biggest move I made was to go free lance after many years of being an employee in a large org. It was liberating & I've never looked back 🙂
Good points, Jane and very timely in this time of economic challenges. You will find that many people see only the job, or only one possible career, and then when it disappears are in crisis mode. Staying on top of options makes you more marketable in the end.
As someone who is right now basically reinventing me, it has been an adventure that I am still working my way through.

Who Do We Follow?
Contributed by Andrew Chan on Jun 9, 2010 (message contributor)
Summary: We are all followers of something or someone, but who/what is really worthy of following, that would never go out of style but goes on forever?
Who do we follow?
2 Sam 7:12-16; Mt 21:1-5 (Zech 9:9)
Big Idea: We follow a King who reigns forever
I am a follower. I follow sports teams. It is such a guy thing. Right at this time is every sports fan favourite time of the year - NBA playoffs, Stanley Cup playoffs, MLB with my favourite team the Blue Jays pounding record number of homeruns in May, badminton's just done their world team championships the Thomas cup for men and Uber Cup for women, got world cup of soccer to look forward to, it is a smorgasbord of pure mucho macho delight!
Maybe you ladies, can't really identify with that. But I can see a number do follow the latest fashions, especially last nite at the graduation feast, got your bling, got your pumps, would not be caught dead wearing last year's fashion, or anything you can get out of Walmart. It seems like every gal is looking like the ladies in Twilight, Moonlight or is it New Moon, Eclipse, Sex in the City (they can't stop talking about the shoes), while following the latest gossip on Brangelina, Lindsay Lohan's latest disaster.
Perhaps Some NOT into sports or fashion, but we follow other stuff like millions of people last week the finale on the Lost or 24, don't we? Then we follow our appetites... whatever tickles our fancies. I saw a movie where people would follow a gal who decided to blog about her quest to cook from Julia Child's cookbook in 365 days.
It seems following people is a universal thing... we are built to follow, we do it willingly, you would get a following if make the best and cheapest sushi, the greatest hotdog, some of you follow the hottest girl or guy like a puppy with tongue hanging out, even follow the geek with the ipad, some make it their business to follow our society's obsession with sex booze party scene, writing gossip columns for all the shady tabloids. It seems by nature we are all followers and some so obsessive they approach the territory of becoming stalkers.
Point is Male or female, big or small, hunky or not, we are all followers... right?
I wonder if perhaps you had ask yourselves why follow these things or these trends or these people? Why follow the NHL Canucks? Every spring they break our hearts. We shout Lou... then we turn into Boo. Why do we follow those sports teams? Why do we hold out the hope that someday the Canucks would bask in Stanley Cup glory? Or Why follow fashion trends, our appetites?
Is it not true? Life is about following... from the first breath we have we have been followers, we follow and copy our parents, ... Imagine if we did not follow parents, we'd be dead, no food, no love, no clothes, we'd dead naked and really skinny people.
Following, it seems makes us feel somewhat happy, alive. It seems we want to connect with our world and to something bigger than just ourselves. We do not want to be a mere tourist on this planet all by our lonesome. It appears in our hearts, we want to matter, we want to know we are alive, we are social beings, designed for relate, it makes us feel good to do it. Maybe you've heard of babies that are left alone in orphanages, they fail to thrive, many shrivel up lack of connection and touch. We must connect, to something bigger than just our next day's meal, or our jobs, or being a student, a housewife... so we follow, we follow what others are into, what others say are meaningful, is hot or groovy, cool, we want to belong!
So who or what is worthy to be followed? Sports teams? Nah... they always promise to win the cup but always lose and what if they win... they lose again... The fashion police? ... nah next year fashion will change, just when you shriek with delight you got that to die for designer outfit on sale, they're yesterday fashions already... Our own appetites? They are never satisfied... one day they'd a hotter thing than the ipad, a hotter girl or hotter spicier version of whatever we follow .... Our parents... nah... you are way too cool now to follow parents... would not be caught dead driving in mom's minivan, rather be in a real mini, something sporty... Is there anyone or anything worth following, giving your life for?
Our hearts long for something someone we can connect to, that is meaningful worthwhile.
It'd be a shallow life to follow teams that will lose, fashion that will in at a garage sale next month, food that will become maggoty, illicit sex will become STDs or destruction of true intimacy, booze or drugs that will become next drunk statistic in jail or worse dead, cars that will end up in a junk pile

Forbes has tallied its annual list of the biggest TV moneymakers and, no surprise, Fox's American Idol led the list for 2010.
Idol delivered $7.11 million every half hour last year (wow, even the padded results shows?), which was down 12 percent from 2009.
That was followed by CBS' Two and a Half Men, with $2.89 million per half hour (which gives you an idea why few think the show is going away despite Charlie Sheen exiting). In fact, showrunner Chuck Lorre has three shows in the Top 10.
In third was another series going through some cast issues, ABC's Desperate Housewives with $2.74 million, which has some actors in contract negotiations. Here's the Top 10 from last year:
1. American Idol (Fox) $7.1 million
2. Two and a Half Men (CBS) $2.89 million
3. Desperate Housewives (ABC) $2.74 million
4. Grey's Anatomy (ABC) $2.67 million
5. Dancing With the Stars (ABC) $2.67 million
6. Lost (ABC) $2.60 million
7. The Big Bang Theory (CBS) $2.50 million
8. 24 (Fox) $2.45 million
9. Private Practice (ABC) $2.32 million
10. Mike & Molly (CBS) $2.11 million
