36. The Ten Success Habits – FOCUS – Follow One Course Until Successful
Today we are going to talk about one of the most important ingredients required to be a highly successful business consultant.
That ingredient is the ability to focus 100% on whatever you have to do to be successful in this profession.
We have trained a lot of people over the years and I can say that one of the biggest problems some of them have is an inability to focus on just one thing and be successful at it.
So many people just give up after a short pathetic attempt at becoming an expert. You know nothing in life comes for free you have to work for it really hard, its easy to settle for a mediocre level of success but if you want the big earnings to set you up for life you need to become an expert.
I know in the Business Consulting profession you can make a choice to have a slow start or you can decide to put a lot of effort in to it and attain success a lot quicker, its a race between building your earnings up faster than your savings run out.
John Lee Dumas from the Entrepreneurs on Fire Podcast says in nearly every show— FOCUS "Follow One Course Until Success".
This is one of the best acronyms I have ever heard, it perfectly describes the process to become successful in anything you want to become an expert at.

Dear Friends,
"Peace on Earth, good will toward all people." It is hard for me, and I think it must be equally hard for you, to imagine any time in history that has been more in need of peace and good will among all people. Or a time when even those of us who name ourselves Christian have been more vulnerable to cynicism and doubt. Where do were look for hope?
Christmas reminds of God's love and care for all of us. Indeed Christmas demonstrates God's desire for Shalom. During this festival season let's continue to be agents of Hope and God's love by reaching out to people who may not be privileged like us to have shelter, good health and other the necessities of life.
Many thanks for all your support through this year. As always your encouragement and participation in the Micah campaign continues to be a great source of encouragement. A special thank you for praying for us and contributing to the growth of the Micah Challenge coalition in Zambia. Your support is vital in helping with the fight against poverty and achieving the dream of meeting the MDGs. I am always humbled that you consider the work worthy supporting given the myriads of choices you have!
Once again, huge thanks to our many Micah Challenge supporters worldwide, Micah Challenge International and Tear Fund. Your contributions continue to be insightful and relevant. They provide a valuable source to steer the thinking and prioritize issues that need to be covered.

A Ministry of the Evangelical Fellowship of Zambia
Micah Sunday is a global day of prayer to mobilise churches to engage with global poverty issues. It is a time for churches to learn, reflect and act on their belief about the importance of justice, and to commit to the fight for dignity for the most vulnerable. (more…)

10.10.10 Prayer Bulletin
Prayer underpins all our actions and on Sunday 10th October 2010 it will affirm the importance of listening to God, seeking his wisdom and relying on His strength
and guidance. We want to affirm the importance of listening to God, seeking his wisdom and relying on his strength and guidance. The global prayer for Micah 2010 echoes the themes of Nehemiah who fasted and prayed day and night before he embarked on the mighty task of restoring Jerusalem. The prayer of this campaign arises out of the heart of the Bible itself. The heart-rending prayer of Nehemiah claiming for a full life for its people that return from exile is the theological framework that inspires the 10.10.10 and that will motivate Christians all over the world (more…)

Stand Up and Take Action
We are writing with more details for the two major Micah Challenge Zambia Mobilization events in the month of October. We warmly invite all District Steering Committees to participate in the Stand Up Take Action and Micah Sunday. They do not require significant financial resources and we hope that all District steering Committees will be able to participate.
Objectives-what do we want to achieve?
- Mobilize Churches in your District to participate in Micah Sunday
- Mobilize the community and the church to participate in Stand Up Take Action.
Theme: Stand Up Against High Food prices
Stand Up Take Action is a worldwide call to take up action against poverty and inequality and for achieving and exceeding the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Between the 17th and 19th of October millions of people around the Globe will literally and symbolically stand up and speak out demanding their governments keep their promises to end extreme poverty and hunger. Last year more than 43.7 million people in 127 countries took part and set a new Guinness world record. This year rings even louder. Micah Challenge Zambia aims to mobilize over 100,000 people. Every person counts.
We need you to Stand Up and Speak Out to make the Zambian government honour its commitment on the attainment of MDGs.
Taking part is easy. Here's what we urge you to do:
1. Make announcements in churches through the Ministers/pastors fellowships asking Christians to plan a moment between October 17 and 19 in their workplaces, schools, churches or homes, when they will stop, stand up, and share a moment of prayer and commitment focused on the words of the Micah Call.
2. Prepare churches by introducing Stand Up Take Action in announcements and news bulletin in churches, Sunday schools and small or cell groups before October 17. Encourage Sunday school teachers and cell group leaders to share or to discuss on the words of the prophets and the teachings of Jesus concerning the poor during the week leading to 17th October. On October 19 invite churches to observe Micah Sunday; and during the service that Sunday ask church members to practice the Stand Up Take Action moment as it comes to a climax that day.
3. Demonstrate the challenge of poverty in communities by escorting a senior government or political leader (e.g. MP, PS, Mayor, DC, Council Chairman, or Provincial Minister) to the local market. Get them to spend the equivalent of one US Dollar (i.e. K3500) on their food supplies for the day. Hold a public rally at the market place or another suitable venue where different speakers can address the issue of rising food prices and the impact it's having on the poor. Invite speakers from the church and the civil society and the government.
4. Invite Christian artists to participate in your stand up activities and endorse the Micah Challenge.
5. Invite like-minded NGOs, CBOs, FBOs and the public to participate in the Stand Up Take Action activities.
6. Approach local schools to organize classroom/school based actives. These can involve among other activities pupils sharing poems, songs, and sketches either at the start of the class or during assembly. The class teacher can explain the significance of Stand Up Take Action, and the need to reduce poverty in our nation. Furthermore pupils can be asked to write posters urging the government to reduce poverty and stick them on the notice board.
7. Plan for a march and a public rally where you can invite the public to participate and musicians and speakers dealing with the issue of high food prices. Use this forum to have people sign a petition that relates to local situation such access to ART, overcrowding in schools, high food prices etc.
8. Hold round table dialogues on MDGs in your district. Invite the public to participate in these discussions
9. Run phone in radio programs on your local community radio station. Contact the Campaign Coordinator's office to find out what assistance is available for organizing a radio program
10. Hold a sports day for young people under the theme: kicking out high food prices.
11. Finally, you can also organize a prayer summit to pray for God's intervention in the poverty and hunger situation in your district.
Micah Call
This is a moment in history of unique potential, when the stated intentions of world leaders echo something of the mind of the Biblical prophets and the teachings of Jesus concerning the poor, and when we have the means to dramatically reduce poverty.
We commit ourselves, as followers of Jesus, to work together for the holistic transformation of our communities, to pursue justice, be passionate about kindness and to walk humbly with God.
We call on international and national decision-makers of both rich and poor nations, to fulfill their public promise to achieve the Millennium Development Goals and so halve absolute global poverty by 2015.
We call on Christians everywhere to be agents of hope for and with the poor, and to work with others to hold our national and global leaders accountable in securing a more just and merciful world.

A CHRISTIAN non-governmental organization has advised presidential candidates in the October 30 election to make a commitment towards the attainment of millennium development Goals (MDGs) by 2015.
And National Royal Foundation of Zambia chairperson Chief Bright Nalubamba (right) has asked presidential aspirants to meet all traditional Leaders to explain their agenda for the rural poor before asking for their votes.
In a statement, Micah Challenge Zambia national facilitator Pastor Lawrence also called on Christians in the country to vote for a person who would promote integrity, righteous and justice.
"We call on all Zambians not to vote tribe, Chibuku, party or age, but character, vision and strategy on how we will attain the millennium Development Goals," he said.
And commenting on the heads of state meeting on the MDGs to take place in New York on September 25, pastor Temfwe called on leaders from the developing countries to urge G8 nations to fulfill the pledges they made to poor countries.
Pastor Temfwe also expressed dissatisfaction with the US$60 billion pledged by the rich nations towards health.
And chief Nalubamba said traditional leaders need to know what the presidential aspirants stood for so that people know who they were voting for.
" There is greater need than before for the aspirants to meet the traditional leaders through out the country so that they can explain what they have for the rural poor," Chief Nalubamba said. We have been marginalized for some time and our people remain poor so we have to know this time around what we are voting for."
Chief Nalubamba said traditional leaders and the rural poor had the right to know what was there for them from the presidential candidates in the October 30 by-election.
He advised the candidates to reserve some days of their campaign period for a meeting with traditional leaders to discuss issues that affected the rural communities.
"We need to know how each of the candidates intends to work with traditional leaders in the fight against rural poverty," said Chief Nalubamba. " There should be no restriction on how should meet traditional leaders to allow the rural people to elect the best candidate. We now have to speak out strongly about traditional leaders' effective involvement and participation in governance and development as servants of the rural poor."

We already know just about everything about the Samsung Galaxy S5, so there's not much else we can hype beast about the Galaxy S5, but we're going to continue doing it anyways. On Friday, AT&T, Sprint and US Cellular began pre-orders for their variant of the Samsung Galaxy S5. Which will cost $199 on contract at all three providers. However, T-Mobile is starting theirs on Monday and they've been hyping it up over on Twitter. Now they've gone ahead and unboxed the Samsung Galaxy S5, because why not? The Galaxy S5 will cost you $0 down at T-Mobile with monthly payments of $27.05. Or if you want to buy it outright, it'll be around $650.
The video that T-Mobile has done is narrated by T-Mobile's own Des, which you probably know from the promotion he does for T-Mobile on Twitter, Google+, Instagram, Facebook and other social networking sites. The Samsung Galaxy S5 comes with a beautiful 5.1-inch 1920×1080 Super AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor inside, 2GB of RAM along with 16GB of internal storage and a microSD card slot with supports up to 128GB of storage. Speaking of which, there's a nice Sandisk microSD card that was announced at Mobile World Congress that does 128GB. There's also an outstanding 16MP camera on the back and a 2MP front-facing shooter. And we can't forget that the Samsung Galaxy S5 is water-resistant and rated for IP67, which is basically waterproof and competes with Sony's Xperia Z1, Z1s and Z2 on that front.
The Samsung Galaxy S5 should be in-stores around April 11th, for those looking to pick theirs up. However, Samsung does already have the Galaxy S5, Gear 2, Gear 2 Neo and Gear Fit in about 1400 stores throughout the US and Switzerland, for those interested in checking out the new devices before launch day.
Are any of you pre-ordering the Galaxy S5? Let us know in the comments below which carrier you plan on ordering it from.

My dream bedroom makeover is still a bit of a way away while we finish the reno's downstairs, but recently my daughter swapped out all the furniture in her bedroom and I couldn't help being a bit jealous at how shiny and new her room is now. And in an instant it got me back on the ol' Pinterest and Insta, saving some of my favourite bedroom looks.
The hardest part is actually pinning down one look or style, and it being one both my husband and I can agree on.
Romantic four poster
Should I have outgrown the fascination for a four poster bed by now? This minimal look with swathes of fabric looks gorgeous even while I know at the same time how very impractical it will be to keep it all clean and dust free.
Soft and upholstered
Cozy soft upholstered bedheads have been everywhere for a few years now and one of the other rooms in the house has one and yes they still look really nice. Add some soft fluffy rugs, throw blankets, and cushions along with a few pastel toned accessories and it all looks super pretty, b u t is maybe not a look the hubby would love so much.
Hotel style luxe
Just for a second please ignore the gold touches I am insane for at the moment, because the thing that really grabs me here is the oversized hotel style headboard behind the bed, which is definitely something we could do given the size and dimensions of our room. Freestanding art deco style side tables add a glam decadent feel, while the bed itself is actually very simple and clean. And check the bedside lights hanging from the ceiling: I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS IDEA!!! I love everything about this look right down to the artwork.
Cast iron classic
This cast iron bed with a foot end would fit in our room so perfectly, and would definitely be the most straightforward choice as we wouldn't have to replace every other item of furniture. The one and only drawback for me is the fact that I'd love to swap all the current dark-almost-black pieces for bright and classic white, and am hoping to go with light grey walls and white woodwork to offset new white furniture and existing plantation window shutters. But I do love this bed, and if I found one in a creamy white shade it could very possible be a done deal.
Modern, minimal, and a tiny bit masculine
Somewhat surprisingly, I really love this look. The grey walls are only a bit darker than what I had in mind, and with a feature colour or wallpaper on the wall behind the bed it really works for me. The bed is super minimal, and the few items of timber furniture warm it all up. This is probably the closest my husband and I would come to agreeing on something to be honest, if only those art deco side tables weren't so damn amazing…

Richard was first introduced to Yoga whilst studying Physiotherapy at University as a way to compliment his Martial Arts practice. Realising that Yoga provided an excellent way to help manage and prevent injuries.
During this time Richard became interested in mind/body approaches to healthcare this included completing his dissertation which compared Mindfulness Meditation to traditional methods of relaxation.
He has worked as a Physiotherapist for the past 14 years and now specialises in Chronic Pain Management. Richard's work with patients involves many aspects drawn from Yoga including core stability training, exercise therapy, breath awareness and retraining of movement patterns.
Richard is a registered teacher with Yoga Alliance UK, he has a special interest in functional anatomy and applying this to Yoga as a way to improve technique, safety and effectiveness in asana practice.
Look out for our Strength and Flexibility courses and workshops taught by Richard from September. Richard will also be teaching functional anatomy on our Teacher training course.

The majority of the content on Youtube sparks a debate within me as to whether it more effectively kills time or brain cells. From time to time, though, I come across something that makes me giggle or is particuarly poignant. That material still kills time, but that is an adult decision that I leave to your discretion. For your viewing pleasure, I present the Popdialectic Cinema.

I'll admit to being a romantic, but not generally a sappy guy. That said … this one melted me.
BP Spills Coffee
40,000 gallons of oil into the gulf per day is atrocious, we can all agree. This piece is a nice little parody of the attitudes that have gone into trying to clean it up.
Psycho Girl
This piece is magnificent. Boy meets girl, boy dates girl, boy leaves on a European vacation … hilarity ensues. The soundtrack is pretty catchy, too.

Product Description
PERFAIR-XS is our alternative to PERFAIR-SS or PERFAIR-ST when 2′ x 2′ square diffusers must be installed in ceilings with very limited space. PERFAIR-XS allows to install AXO-S Series, NEX-S, OTO-S, PLAY-S and RXO-S in ceilings with a 6″ clearance.
Because the plenum is very compact, air pressurization inside the plenum is significantly reduced and more air tends to be pushed out of one side of the diffuser, resulting in performance loss and comfort issues. In order to counter that effect, a perforated plate has been added inside the plenum. It has the effect of equalizing the air volume and pressure inside the plenum, therefore diffusing the air more evenly through the diffuser's face.
The end result compared to standard compact plenums is a significant improvement of occupants' thermal comfort, which can consequently reduce the overall energy consumption of the system.
PERFAIR-XS comes with the same crossbar and long screw for secure face attachment as other PERFAIR plenums and is available with 4″, 5″, 6″ or 8″ round or oval neck sizes.
PERFAIR-XS should only be considered as an alternative to other PERFAIR plenums when required by physical constraints. We highly recommend specifying PERFAIR-SS in designs with 14″ or more of free height in the ceiling.

Changing Directions is a self help group for disabled adults. We meet twice monthly either at venues in the city or at outings to places of local interest. On our outings we have a support worker or a volunteer to help with our more vulnerable members.
Members who do not have their own transport have to take it in turns to travel with those that do have vehicles.
We would use the funding to hire a coach to for an outing where we could all travel together and to help pay for an extra support worker.
Disabled people often feel isolated and may lack confidence in social situations due to the lack of opportunity to integrate themselves in the wider community away from their usual carers. Being members of a group such as Changing Directions enables disabled people to meet up with their peers regularly and share experiences and friendship they may otherwise not have. As a relatively small organisation members seem to gel better than they would than in a larger group. The following are some comments made by members in the past: 'I look forward to meeting my friends when we meet at the pub.' 'It helps to share my problems and difficulties I have with other disabled people.' 'It's nice to go out and not have to rely on my parents for help.'

TMZ, the Los Angeles based website known for celebrity gossip, have dared to question if something at President Trump's inauguration did not go according to plan.
The incident happened in plain sight and although I was fixed on the words of the speech, I couldn't help but notice something looked slightly peculiar.
Shortly after Trump began speaking a group of soldiers lined up and stood behind him. Less than a minute later they all marched away.
In a ceremony planned with literally military precision, such a misstep seems unlikely.
Accidents do happen, but even at an event planned so meticulously? In the words of Robert Plant, "It really makes me wonder".
It was frankly something of a Benny Hill moment. Let's hope that it was not an indication of disorder among the ranks…

Reaching the summit of the mountainous CAT gives that feeling of irrevocable and irreplaceable joy, especially after long hours of grasping concepts, preparations, mock tests, and the ultimate stressful pressure of the numerous college interviews. A short break after the b-schools announce their results, and thereafter that dreamt life awaits our arrival in the reality.
But wait! Your reality will defy and define its meaning once you are there. The b-school is going to get you off your ground with its magnanimous plethora of activities, opportunities and actions. It does not matter whether you are fresher or hold a considerable work experience, the school takes its toll on everyone, piece by piece. But, it shapes that individual out of you – the one you always wanted to be. You may never appreciate it, but that sense and feeling of acceptance matters.
Amid the new outposts of dreamt reality and hectic schedules, the focus point should be to stick to the individualism. There will be innumerable factors to push you off that precipice, but maintaining stability is important. An instance of success at the cost of a mental breakdown is futile, if it is a success at all. Division and allocation of time are essential, but probing deep down the schedule stands equally viable.
Following instances might turn up in the initial course of time at a b-school –
- Lack of Time – There are three rules in the Game of Time in an MBA. The first being, 'efficient time management implies efficacious goal achievement.' The rest two simply do not exist. Time is a demand whose supply equilibrium will never be reached. Again, accept and adapt rather than fretting.
- A bye-bye to Hobbies – I have some astonishing individuals in my class, who are undoubtedly highly intelligent, and equally ace in sports, photography, trading, gaming, writing etc. Name an activity and I will give you an individual from my batch who has a commendable finesse or immense interest in that activity. Do not miss on to your interests when you land at a b-school. Remember, your hobbies stood as significant criteria for your selection at an IIM. Stick to them and do what you love.
- Sleep Deprivation and Bad Health – Agreeably at most points of time, you will have to choose between your sweet sleep and the confluence of assignments, projects, quizzes, etc. In the initial months, when the whole world will run for Summer Placements, the gravity of the situation will push you towards opting out of a few things, namely proper food and that needed nap. Competitiveness is necessary, and so is the achievement, but not on an empty stomach and a messy mind. Embrace your pillow and preparations simultaneously.
- Detachment – Each day at an IIM will shoot you with maximum objectives. The motive is to accept things as they come and sail being unsinkable. Indulgence into priorities is absolutely necessary, but not at the risk of detachment and giving onto relationships. The goal of developing a strong nexus at IIM does not imply that you miss out on friends and family who have supported you all along. Talk to them, acknowledge their support and share. Do not exchange the impregnable support system that you have had for a new one.
- Breakdowns – You cannot be at the top always. Someone will still be there to pull you down. On the contrary, you just cannot hold the bottom place every time. Being engulfed by the failure will only push the adrenaline levels lower. View setbacks as opportunities for comebacks. Perfection is a destination never to be reached, nor is imperfection a crown always to be cherished. Go out, party, enjoy, create imbalances in your chemical levels, and rise up the next day. No one is ever too broken to find his/her way back. Challenge yourself and prosper.
The words of Henry Thoreau, "Things do not change; we change.", clearly, gives the representation of the lives at an IIM. My idea of change is not to give yourself away in the crowd. Instead, you should capitalise on the opportunities that come ahead without being lost. The red bricks have consistently shaped great individuals throwing the same stones at them. It is the individual who chooses to either dodge those stones, or accept and rise from the bruises. Make a choice; expand, extend and emerge rather than adopting to exclude and exchange.

It's tough to stand out at an event filled with oxygen-suckers of the likes of a possible future president, Hillary Clinton, the current vice president, Joe Biden, and an actual former president--the Big Dog himself, Bill Clinton. But on September 25, in the ballroom of the Sheraton Times Square in Manhattan, seven people did just that.
This group was feted at the Clinton Global Citizen Awards, the social high point of the influencer-packed Clinton Global Initiative summit, which since 2005 has wrangled more than $76 billion in commitments from governments, business and individuals to tackle pressing worldwide problems.
"Perhaps the best and most lasting way to honor these men and women," Hillary Clinton told the crowd of upwards of a thousand as the ceremony got under way, "is for all of us to bring their spirit and courage into our own lives."
Center stage: Malala Yousafzai, the resilient 16-year-old Pakistani who was shot in the head by the Taliban last year for advocating education for girls. "After the shooting, a member of the Taliban said, 'Let this be a lesson,' " recounted Jordan's Queen Rania, in presenting her the award, a trophy encrusted with Swarovski jewels, made by a Haitian metal artist in collaboration with Donna Karan. "Well, it was. Perhaps one of the greatest lessons the world has ever seen." Biden gave one to New York City's Mayor Michael Bloomberg: "The thing I like about Mike is not about words--it's always about action." (
The less renowned took their bows, too. Elias Taban is a former child soldier who went on to build schools, hospitals and orphanages in South Sudan. Adam Lowry cofounded Method, which makes biodegradable cleaners and soaps.
Bill Clinton closed out the evening by bringing out Elvis Costello, backed up by The Roots. While the ex-president kept his sax at home, the entertainers tied it all together, finishing their set with a rousing performance of Curtis Mayfield's appropriately titled "Move On Up."

A wonderful combination of mystery and philosophy, Bones and Silence presents Yorkshire detective inspector Andrew Dalziel with the opportunity to play God. In the community production of the York mystery cycle, a religious play from medieval times, the gargantuan detective is cast as the Deity; in real life he is receiving anonymous notes from someone threatening suicide. He knows that the writer of the letters is an acquaintance of his-- but which one? Reginald Hill is an excellent prose stylist. He deserves as wide a readership and as much acclaim as P.D. James, with whom he is often compared. This novel was a finalist for the Edgar in 1990, when I chaired the Best Novel committee, and it won the Golden Dagger in England. Reginald Hill is an extraordinary writer.-- Sharyn McCrumb

The all-time classic of colonial India
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Audio Cassette
On the splendid visual backdrop of turn-of-the-century India, 'A Passage to India' is a timeless and classic masterpiece of English literature, poetically exploring relations between rulers and subjects, men and women, Englishmen and Indians. Forster's lucid style and unsurpassed technical ability comes together in a carefully crafted and delicately balanced work. With great sensivity and sincere love of the country, he conveys to the reader the full emotional spectrum of the cultural mosaic of India, from the most deeply felt pious devotion to various religious duties, to the unfathomable chasm of misunderstanding between natives and colonial rulers. On an higher impersonal level, Forster weaves an exact and finely constructed plot with almost supernatural undertones, as if the characters are drawn imperceptibly and unknowingly towards their fates by forces within the land itself

A Classic of its times, but still pertinent today
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Paperback
4 stars on average over 190 readers isn't bad at all! And most of the problems seem to be over the rather unenlightened views of rape ("Nine times out of ten, if a girl gets raped, it's partly her fault") and homosexuality ("I grok a wrongness") but hey he did write it in the 60s and every generation blasts the past one. Colourful characters (Jubal being a favourite fast talkin' lawyer - one of those irritating as hell types) and some rather interesting insights about nature/nuture, what makes a human being (laughter and sex), a satyrical poke at religions and an insight into hippy culture.Don't be disappointed by the lack of "science" - its not thtat kind of tale. Tends to focus more on human reactions to something as mind-blowing an topsy-turving as the Man from Mars.A great entertaining read.

Sure, the premise of this book is a bit unrealistic, but Martel is such a talented storyteller that one accepts every bit of "Life of Pi" to be the truth. I came across this book because it was required reading for both my IB/TAG/AP English Literature class and my IB Theory of Knowledge class in high school, and I'm glad I did. It's a page-turner of semi-magical realism that to me evokes the spirit of Marquez and Murakami, without being quite as outlandish.

New Navy history website launched
Published on SBLT Max Logan (author), ABIS Craig Walton (photographer)
Location(s): Cockatoo Island
Topic(s): Naval Heritage and History
Chief of Navy, Vice Admiral Tim Barrett has launched a new website for the Naval Historical Society of Australia at an event at Cockatoo Island.
The new website is a rich resource, which informs readers, researchers and students about the events, naval heritage sites, people and ships throughout Australian naval history.
President Naval Historical Society of Australia, Captain David Michael said the new website was a comprehensive database.
"If information is not on the site, directions will show the way or the Society's research service can assist.
"More than 1,500 stories are available."
The Naval Historical Society originated in Garden Island Dockyard 47 years ago and has continued to grow and flourish. Through its global reach and local services including public guided tours of Garden Island, the Society has provided excellent support to Navy and the community.
Cockatoo Island was a fitting venue for the event due to its significance as a World heritage listed site, the result of a rich indigenous, convict and naval shipbuilding and repair history. The oldest dockyard in Australia, Cockatoo Island facilitated the construction of more than 30 RAN ships. Shipbuilding commenced with HMAS Huon in 1916 and culminated with HMAS Success in 1986.
Cockatoo Island is featured on the new website along with 14 other naval heritage sites. Each heritage site page provides an overview of the site's significance, history and related links.
In addition to showcasing the new website, Captain Michael said the event was an opportunity to thank the Department of Environment, Sydney Harbour Federation Trust and many Society volunteers who contributed to the website's development.

Title:Women, Race & Class
Author: Angela Y. Davis
Date of Publication:1981
LC Call Number: E 185.86 .D383 1983
Race, Women and Class is not at all what I expected, and I wish that Davis had used a different title to give me a better idea of what the book would be about. What it is: a history, mostly, of women's movements in the United States and their intersection with other social justice movements, often with Marxist analysis included. I'm really glad this was included, because I keep coming across these references to what the early women's movements were like and the schisms of race and class that were introduced fairly early on, but this is the first time I've looked into a really detailed history and analysis of the movement. When I began reading, I expected it to move quickly from there into an analysis of the current situation, as several other books had done, so it was pleasant to find that it was actually concerned with giving the history, although the second half of the book is more argumentative and more concerned with contemporary events.
I really appreciated Davis's historical analysis of the economic forces that lead women to get involved in activism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. She shows how women of all classes had been important contributors to the economy prior to that period, which I think is something that often gets missed. I'm thinking back to The Second Sex, when Beauvoir appeared to give a fairly detailed analysis of the role of women in culture generally (an ambitious and perhaps somewhat suspect goal, but, well, Beauvoir) and she went on about marriage customs and women as chattel and so on in a rather ahistorical way. Here, of course, we are dealing with a much more specific historical period, but Davis gives a very different picture of women (other than slaves, who must be and are analyzed separately) as productive workers within a home-based economy, an economy in which labor was performed primarily for the benefit of one's own household. In this economy, although there was certainly a division of labor, there wasn't a division between valued, higher-prestige work in some sort of organized system for a wealthy employer and "housework." Rather, families worked to create goods that had value, using most of the products of their labor themselves. Davis argues that the advent of the Industrial Revolution devalued the work that women had formerly done, because much of that work was now automated: weaving, candlemaking, baking, etc. Women were still involved in the production of these goods, but instead of middle-class skilled workers who produced these things on their own terms, they were now poor and immigrant unskilled workers who labored for an employer under exploitative conditions. Davis does not really address how industrialization affected men's work differently; I'm sure that much of the work that they had previously done was also automated, but they didn't seem to lose prestige and economic relevance the same way that women did. In any case, this may paint too rosy a picture of the preindustrial period, but I am intrigued by the idea that, first of all, industrialization put women at an economic disadvantage relative to men, and second of all, that both the Victorian ideology of motherhood and the push for women's rights was a result of the diminished importance that women had in society under the new industrial system. It's something I'd like to read more about (suggestions welcome).
In any case, Davis argues that society attempted to make up for this loss of economic prestige by offering women this ideological role of the angelic and all-nurturing mother, but that this role actually can work both for and against the dominant ideology. Because of its unspoken emphasis on middle class whiteness, it encouraged women to see the women of color who worked for them (both slaves and servants) as fundamentally different from themselves and in general encouraged a paternalistic attitude. Davis describes one white woman's efforts to improve conditions for factory workers while overlooking the conditions under which she employed a housekeeper in her own home. On the other hand, being cast as the guardians of morality, along with having more time available to them, helped many women to become anti-slavery activists on moral grounds and later to become part of the women's suffrage movement. Women led the anti-slavery movement, and Davis provides some explanation of this.
One of the things that becomes clear as we go through this history was something that I actually first discovered many years ago when reading about the Gold Rush: a person can be an abolitionist and still be racist. In the book I'd read on California history, I found that although Californians voted not to allow slavery, they also had a heated debate about whether or not they should exclude African Americans from entering the state. In Davis's book, which is more concerned with the more easterly part of US history, she shows that the suffragists, although many of them had been active in the abolition movement, ended up employing essentially a Southern strategy to attract Southern white women to the movement by refusing to deal with any of the issues faced by the newly emancipated African American women. There was, at the time, a debate about whether black men or white women should get the vote first, and Davis shows that the votes of white women were considered, at the time, an antidote for the changes that the votes of black men might bring about. This was of course encouraged by racist white men, and middle class women bought into it because it was useful to them, but this was really a mistake because it drove a wedge between "women's rights" and all the civil rights that the African American population of the US was fighting for at the time. In any case, the early suffragists wanted the support of racist white men and racist white Southern women more than that of African American women activists.
Davis shows that this history has had a profound effect on the feminist movement, affecting not only the suffrage battle but also such seemingly unrelated issues as reproductive rights. To Davis, this is can all ultimately be traced back to capitalism. I think she needs to make a stronger case for this particular point; it's a short book and mostly full of history, and it seems like there are a lot of cultural and specific historical factors at work which Davis describes very well. This is not an argument with her conclusion, but I'd like a further explanation of how monopoly capitalism forwards these interlocking oppressions in the current historical period. I thought ending with a call for socialized housework was… kind of odd.
In any case, this is quite a short book and as such, it's raised a lot of questions that I'd like to read more about: Frederick Douglass's work in the suffrage movement, the effect of the Industrialized Revolution on women in the economy, the role of women in the Socialist movement, and several other things. She also recommends specific works; the one that I find the most interesting is Sarah Grimke's series of letters, The Equality of the Sexes and the Condition of Women. Talk about feminist classics!

I was sooo happy to see this on my only surviving phal., something that looks like the beginning of a spike and hopefully my first earned bloom. I know it's not much to all of you super-experienced growers but it just got my heart beating faster, especially since I bought it last year on July 28 in bloom and also since it has just started on it's second new leaf without discarding any of the already existing leafs.
Another small thing I should mention is that my wife promised I could get another orchid stand if I can get one to rebloom, so I guess this will be a kind of right of passage.
uuuuhm....... looks like a root....
I think you are on your way to getting another plant stand, it looks like a SPIKE to me!
Usually spikes have a different look to them, I think it is a root , keeping fingers crossed that it is a spike .. a suggestion go out and get the stand then if it is not a spike ...... Gin
It is so small to tell for certain at this point. Regardless, I think you deserve a plant stand since you have been able to keep the orchid alive for a year! (Just think how many you could bloom if you had a plant stand!)
Do you think if you can get this to grow a new root and a spike you might deserve a GH??? I think a really BIG GH!!!!
I think it's a spike..I REALLY REALLY do.
It's starting to point upwards..and roots like that usually start to point downwards at that point...do keep us informed!
Thanks guys. For thos of you that are still non-believers it has folds and cuts like new growths on catts. Believe me I checked to make sure it was a spike before posting. It's the picture that is not terribly clear.
I finally found out that I'm impatient. I should wait for a year te rebloom things so I didn't deserve a spike until now. I think (besides killing 3 of the 4 phals) everything is doing fine now. All catts have new growths and roots. The phrag and onc growths are growing quickly. Mature catts are freaking out and growing insanely fast (one had 7 p-bulbs when I got it in July last year now it has 6 more semi mature and 2 small growths) and have mostly doubled in size in the last year. The neo has just put out a new growth as well as the paphs. I'd say it has been a successful first year of orchid growing. I don't think I will ever get sick of this beauties. I'm here to stay.
i have this spike vs root debate with myself a lot, and it always ends up being a root and it never looks quite like that so i'm voting spike (at very least for good mojo...)
b/c i have no significant other i have to make these kinds of deals with myself in order to not go overboard so my deal is when i can get one of the poor unfortunate catts to bloom i can buy a new orchid for every bloom (i don't want to jinx it but i think this is my year...)
congratulations! i know exactly how all the anticipation feels, i'm so happy for you
On second thought, the red suggests it might not be a root..... but I'm being pessimistic. If you are right, you will know very soon, because once it is an inch along it will start sprouting a leaf or showing a green desire to get tall and make buds

with Ruth Nelson, former head womens volleyball coach at University of Houston where she coached volleyball legends such as Flo Hyman and Rita Crockett, LSU and Iowa; currently working with youth volleyball players
Volleyball coach and youth trainer extraordinaire Ruth Nelson explains how she teaches parents to work with their kids in this video shot onlocation at the 2011 AVCA convention in San Antonio. Coach Nelson works with a group of 7 yearold girls and their parents instructing them in a positive and creative way so that all can learn proper habits on the court.
Learning proper habits on the court at such a young age allows players to develop faster and retain more as they continue down the path to becoming a volleyball player. The parent involvement in this process is key. The parents must know and understand the proper habits and techniques as well so that they can teach and give correct cues to encourage their young ones to play the ball correctly.
Nelson shows a variety of drills that teach different volleyball skills. She starts the drills with tennis balls, progresses to a soft bigger ball, then a green soft ball the size of a volleyball and finally a real volleyball. She has created a practice system for the girls but tries to introduce new drills that build on ones they have already done. Nelson keeps the practice fun with agility drills that incorporate many different moves, including jump roping and doing cartwheels. Many of the drills are done on one side of the court to keep the girls close to each other, and the parents are on the court and included in every drill.
The end result is parent and player forming a positive bond and everyone, parent and player alike, becoming a better volleyball player.

Precautions and Warnings With Panitumumab
If you have a history of electrolyte abnormalities or lung disease, talk to your healthcare provider about whether you can safely use panitumumab. This chemotherapy drug can cause potentially dangerous complications for some people, including those with certain allergies or people taking certain medications. Other warnings and safety precautions for panitumumab apply to women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
What Should I Tell My Healthcare Provider Before Receiving Panitumumab?Talk with your healthcare provider prior to receiving panitumumab (Vectibix®) if you have:
- Ever been told you have electrolyte abnormalities, such as low calcium or magnesium blood levels
- Frequent sun exposure
- Lung disease
- Any allergies, including to foods, dyes, or preservatives.
Also, let your healthcare provider know if you are:
- Breastfeeding
- Pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant.
You should also tell your healthcare provider about all other medications you are taking, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
Specific Panitumumab Precautions and WarningsSome warnings and precautions to be aware of prior to receiving this medication include the following:
- Most people who receive panitumumab will experience a skin reaction during treatment. Skin reactions can include an acne-like or other type of rash or itchy, red, dry, cracking, or peeling skin. The reactions usually appear on the face, neck, or trunk, but can occur anywhere on the body, including around the eyes. Severe skin reactions can become infected, which could cause death.
In clinical trials, most reactions happened within the first two weeks of starting treatment and resolved within three months after the last panitumumab dose. Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you develop any skin reaction during treatment with this drug.
- Sun exposure can increase the risk of developing panitumumab skin reactions. You should limit your time in the sun during treatment and for two months after your last dose. Be sure to wear protective clothing, such as a hat, and sunscreen when outside.
- This medicine is only approved for use in people who have cancer that expresses a certain protein known as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Your healthcare provider will test you for EGFR before treatment.
- There have been rare reports of serious lung disease occurring in people receiving panitumumab. Let your healthcare provider know if you develop any breathing problems, persistent cough, or wheezing during treatment. He or she may recommend you stop receiving panitumumab treatment.
- Panitumumab can cause an infusion reaction, which is a potentially life-threatening, allergic-type reaction that may occur during or shortly after receiving a dose. Your healthcare provider may choose to give you other medicines before your panitumumab dose to help prevent an infusion reaction. If you have an infusion reaction, your healthcare provider may slow down or stop your dose. Let your healthcare provider know immediately if you experience symptoms of an infusion reaction, which may include:
- A skin rash or hives
- Difficulty breathing
- Shortness of breath
- Fever
- Chills.
- You may develop low blood magnesium or calcium levels during treatment. Your healthcare provider will periodically monitor your magnesium and calcium levels, using a simple blood test, during treatment and for at least eight weeks after treatment ends. If your calcium or magnesium levels become too low, you may need oral or intravenous replacement to bring the levels back to normal.
- This medication has been reported to cause potentially serious eye problems, including inflammation of the cornea (the front part of the eye). These eye problems can lead to serious complications that could cause loss of vision. Let your healthcare provider know if you have any signs of eye problems, such as:
- Eye pain or redness
- Excessive tearing
- Blurred vision.
- Panitumumab may react with a few other medications (see Drug Interactions With Panitumumab for more information).
- It is unknown if panitumumab passes through breast milk. Therefore, if you are breastfeeding or plan to start, discuss this with your healthcare provider prior to receiving the drug (see Vectibix and Breastfeeding).
- Panitumumab is a pregnancy Category C medication. This means it may not be safe for use during pregnancy, although the full risks are currently unknown (see Vectibix and Pregnancy).

Women's Outreach: Bringing women out of isolation
Agincourt Community Service Association
Scarborough, ON
For the past five years, Agincourt Community Service Association (ACSA) has been providing harm reduction services to women working in micro brothels, spas and massage parlours in Scarborough and the Greater Toronto Area. The program, called simply Women's Outreach, is run by a Chinese outreach worker who speaks Cantonese and Mandarin, the languages of her clients. She works five days per week and visits the women mostly in private locations, such as their places of work when granted access, or in a café.
The program allows the sex workers to talk about their physical or mental health, and provides social or any other kind of support required, like food and housing assistance. Women's Outreach also distributes kits that contain condoms, lube, informational pamphlets and needles, if requested, in discreet packages that the women can use at work or bring home. The outreach worker encourages the women to come to the clinic for HIV and STI testing and introduces them to nurses and doctors, when they are ready to address their overall physical health.
During the first year of the program, the service provider had to build trust with her clients. A lot of the women are undocumented workers and worry about being deported from Canada. Some fear being judged and discriminated against once they are labelled as sex workers. In order to link them to appropriate services, it was important for the outreach worker to establish a good relationship. "We just care about the well-being of our girls. Respect is the main focus," explained the organizers of the program.
Through positive word-of-mouth the program grew to 500 plus women; and ACSA was able to recruit peer workers and peer volunteers. Nowadays, it also includes the online component WeChat. Through WeChat, the support worker can connect with Chinese sex workers living outside the city and provide them with relevant information.
One of the goals of Women's Outreach is to bring women who engage in sex work out of isolation. To encourage the women to meet up, ACSA hosts workshops one to two times a month. "When they come to the seminars, they share their experiences, they start to trust others and make new friends."
ACSA has just received additional funding to pilot a new program for the customers of sex workers and plans on providing harm reduction and testing to them in the near future.

Validating accuracy of web server statistics what episode of glee does rachel start dating puck
Aero Precision account managers no longer spend painful hours scanning static rows and columns of data each month only to deliver incomplete reports.
They now automatically generate interactive, at-a-glance Tableau dashboard reports that include critical markers and historical trending they could not previously report on.
Our Cognos installation and upgrade expert, Todd Schuman, describes the installation and configuration steps on the server side of Cognos Analytics.
Among the highlights: TECHNOLOGIES COVERED IBM Cognos Analytics RECOMMENDED AUDIENCES BI Power Users (Developers, Support Staff), BI Managers, IT Managers, Program or Project Managers PRESENTER Todd Schuman Practice Lead – Installations, Upgrades and Performance Tuning Todd has over 15 years of Cognos experience and heads up the Senturus Install, Upgrade and Optimization Practice.
Michael's team is also responsible for the development of the Senturus Business Analytics Connector for Tableau to Cognos, which lets Tableau use Cognos as a data source.
PRESENTATION OUTLINE Cognos Analytics has literally hundreds of configurations and settings options.
Pedro has been instrumental in implementing data warehousing systems from scratch and has experienced the evolution of the BI industry through several iterations of BI products like Cognos, Micro Strategy and Tableau.
PRESENTATION OUTLINE OLAP, OLTP, DWH Defined Senturus client, Aero Precision, gave a before-and-after look at how the Senturus Analytics Connector radically improved its supply chain OEM performance reporting.
PRESENTATION OUTLINE PRESENTATION OUTLINE Overview of IBM Cognos Analytics Releases Similar to parental controls on your TV, Tableau provides ways to restrict, or filter, what data appears in visualizations based on the audience.
However, the mechanisms for restricting access are not obvious and Tableau's default is to make all the data in a report visible to everyone looking at it.
In this whitepaper, we discuss four common methods that can be used in Tableau for securing and filtering data by user, along with associated requirements and step-by-step instructions for each.
Knowing their capabilities will ensure your Cognos environment is tuned for best performance and stability.
For example, the latest release of CA v11 includes an Interactive Performance Assistant (IPA) to view query and rendered performance on report objects.
Next generation visualization tools and fast technologies like columnar and in-memory databases are causing people to question the relevancy of the OLAP cube. This webinar recording explores various facets of OLAP to answer this question and discusses real-life client scenarios for a pragmatic perspective.

LONDON • Unilever, whose soaps and detergents are used by two billion consumers daily, reported sales that beat estimates, amid higher prices for its goods in Latin America, and said it will consider the future of its troubled spreads unit if a new leader cannot turn it around.
Revenue rose 4.9 per cent, excluding acquisitions and currency shifts, in the three months through December, Unilever said yesterday.
Analysts had estimated growth of 4 per cent. The shares rose as much as 4 per cent to €38.99 (S$60.96) in Amsterdam trading.
"In markets showing anaemic growth, this is a pretty resilient performance," Mr Warren Ackerman, an analyst at Societe Generale, said in a note.
"The beat is down to pricing. Foods performance remains very disappointing, which is firmly down to spreads, with the rest of the division doing well," Mr Ackerman added.
Analysts have called for a divestment of Unilever's developed-market spreads business, which mostly makes margarine, and was split off into a standalone unit last year.
The company will consider all options for the unit if it shows no growth this year, chief executive officer Paul Polman said in a conference call.
Revenue at the division, whose brands include Flora and I Can't Believe It's Not Butter, continued to decline in the fourth quarter, prompting a change in management.
It will now be headed by Mr Nicolas Liabeuf, after former boss Sean Gogarty left. Mr Liabeuf was formerly Unilever's French marketing head.
The management change "will likely renew speculation about an exit from this business, which would be welcomed by the market", Mr Eddy Hargreaves, analyst at Canaccord Genuity, said in a note.
To buoy profitability, the company has acquired high-end brands, such as Grom gelato, and built a €400 million prestige personal-care division to offset pressure from bargain-hunting European consumers.
Unilever is also introducing zero-based budgeting - a business model where expenses must be justified from zero annually or quarterly - to cut costs by about €1 billion by 2018.
"We are preparing ourselves for tougher market conditions and high volatility in 2016, as world events in recent weeks have highlighted," Mr Polman said in the statement.

I have been getting massages for a long time. Nylon has this firm, yet relaxing touch. I already had a masseur, but he was out of town. After my first massage, I have been hooked. I am now getting a massage weekly. His touch is soothing, relaxing and amazing. He uses several techniques and tailors his massage to your needs. Every week he impresses me more as he continues to implement new techniques . He doesn't do a regular rub, he truly massages you into extract and bliss. See you next week Nylon.
