9 Development Workflow Upgrades You Should Know About
Every once in a while I run into a tool or plugin so useful I can't not add it to my arsenal. I usually shout out tweets and try to spread the word that way, but this time I believe I've got such a neat (and somewhat random) collection of productivity boosting entries, they deserve a collective article.
Here are 9 new upgrades to your development workflow:
1. git-fresh
git-fresh "keeps your repo fresh". It offers a super handy set of shortcuts for some very useful git commands and combinations – it'll prune remote branches, rebase, do merges or resets of your workspace, even stash changes effectively so you can easily push or switch branches without committing the latest changes.
It only supports Linux and OS X but since we're big on Homestead Improved anyway, it's all Linux for us. In fact, we're thinking about adding this to the default Homestead Improved installation, so it's available out of the box. Thoughts?
2. git-extras
git-extras, owned by the mythical TJ Holowaychuk, similarly extends Git's functionality with incredibly useful additional commands. It's a pretty old addon, but I've only just discovered it and I'm sure there are more of you who might find it rather handy. Examples of new commands include:
- git setup: initializes a repo and does the first commit of present files for you. A more "bootstrappy" start of a repo, in essence.
- git ignore: a command line "ignore" so you can add files to
.gitignorewithout leaving the terminal or entering a text editor
- git summary: provides a neat summary of the repo, including its age, its most active contributors, and more
- git undo: this one is a real lifesaver – it undoes the last commit, but still keeps the changes as uncommitted so you can safely call
git reset --hardto discard them once you inspect the condition of the repo with
git status
- git changelog: automatically creates and populates a changelog file with a MarkDown list of all the commit messages since the last tag was created in the repo.
- git release x.y.z: a shortcut for creating a release. This invokes a pre-release hook (for builds/tests), creates a release tag of the given version, pushes the tags and the repo to the remote, and everything else you might do on release day
- git fork: command line forking!
- git squash: easier squashing of commits!
See full list here.

'Pride of Place' awards on Saturday night
Boyle will be among a number of select towns nationwide who will find out on Saturday night if it is a recipient of a coveted 'Pride of Place' award.
The awards will be presented at a Gala Dinner and Ceremony, hosted by Kilkenny County Council, in Lyrath Estate Hotel.
Last August the Pride of Place judges visited Boyle and were shown what makes Boyle such a special place in which to live and work, by the local Pride of Place committee.
The committee was established following the nomination of Boyle Town Team by Roscommon County Council for the competition.
No stone was left unturned by the committee to showcase Boyle and it is hoped their efforts will be rewarded this Saturday night.
Boyle will battle it out in Category 4.
Pride of Place is a prestigious all-island competition and recognises the vast wealth of community contribution to the local society and the creation of civic pride.

Common Name:
Cat Flea
Scientific Name:
Ctenocephalides felis
Adults are about 1/8″ (2.5 mm) long. The body is laterally flattened (side to side) and are wingless. Color brownish black to black, but reddish black when full of blood. Short three segmented antennae; long legs with large femur. Mouthparts apre piercing-sucking with well developed palps. Mature larva about twice the adult length. Larva whitish, slender, eyeless and legless with a well developed head. Moderately long, backward projecting hairs encircling each segment.
Places Most Commonly Found:
Female lays 4-8 eggs after each blood meal, laying some 400 – 500 eggs during their lifetime. Eggs are not glued/stuck to the body but are deposited on or between hairs or in the nest or bedding material. Eggs deposited on animals either all off or are shaken off, and are frequently found in cracks and crevices near where pets sleep or frequent. Eggs are oval, whitish and usually hatch in 1-12 days. Larva move about and require relative high humidity (45% – 95%) to develop. Last instar larva spin a cocoon and incorporate surrounding debris on its surface which provides camouflage. Fleas are typically found where animals frequent because this is where eggs and adult fecal material develops. Most larvae will be found in similar places but especially in areas of high moisture content.
Most Active Period:
Many vacationers who may be unaware of the few adult fleas present, are often greeted and severely attacked by fleas upon their return and seek a cat flea remedy as quickly as possible. This can occur even if the building has been vacant of animals for as long as 6 months. This situation occurs because of the potentially long pupal stage, adults can live for months without food, and because fleas have not been removed by normal vacuuming. Fleas require high humidity and are rarely active outdoors in arid climates. Larvae fail to develop at temperatures below 55 F (13 C) and at or above 95 F (35 C).
Difficulty of Control:
Killing cat fleas is moderate to control. Multiple applications are often necessary and treatment of pets and proper cleaning is vital to eliminating the problem.

My wife Mahdiyeh became friends with Farideh when they were industrial design and architecture students at Iran University of Science and Technology. After Mahdiyeh and I got married, I became very close with both Farideh and her husband, Razgar. We connected on many levels—a passion for science and love for our families. They were honest, hard-working and kind. All they wanted to do was live a simple, happy life.
Even though I live in Edmonton and they lived in Ontario, we talked and texted every day. When you're an immigrant in a country like Canada, your friends become your family. Razgar and Farideh were like my brother and sister, and Jiwan, my nephew.
'Her heart was like the ocean': Remembering Niloufar Sadr
'They were both go-getters': Remembering Arvin Morattab and Aida Farzaneh
My wife and I would spend Christmas holidays at Razgar and Farideh's one-bedroom apartment in Oshawa with other friends—eight adults in a one-bedroom. I laugh when I think about how cramped we were, but thinking back now, I realize it was one of the happiest times in our lives. Back then Razgar was doing a Ph.D. in electrical engineering at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology.
Jiwan was the cutest child, and I was blessed with the gift of being his godfather. The reason my wife, Mahdiyeh, and I decided to have a child was because of Jiwan—he made us realize that we wanted to be parents. Now we have a one-year-old son.
FLIGHT 752: A family torn apart
ESSAY: 'Canada cries for humanity'
PHOTOS: A nation's loss—Victims of Flight 752
It's hard not to cry every time I think about Jiwan's smile and how bright he was. He spoke four languages—Farsi, Kurdish and English, and he was beginning to learn French. When Razgar and Farideh found out they were having another son, Jiwan began pretending his stuffed animals were babies; he'd feed them baby bottles. He was excited about being a big brother. On Jan. 8, when Flight 752 went down, Farideh was seven months pregnant with their second child.
Both Razgar and Farideh made a commitment to their parents to visit Iran every single year. I always admired their loyalty to their families. They made a promise, and they never broke it. I find comfort in knowing that, in the days before they passed, they spent time with the ones they love.
Razgar, Farideh, Jiwan and the baby boy we never got to meet: your memory will live through us forever. We miss you so much.
—as told to Christina Gonzales
This as-told-to appears in print in the March 2020 issue of Maclean's magazine with the headline, "'They wanted a simple life.'" On our cover this month, we offer a Farsi expression of condolence to illustrate a collective spirit of national devastation after the downing of Flight 752.

Bezos Scholars 2021
May 17, 2021
Gabriel Gerig is recognized as one of the Student Scholars in the 2021 Bezos Scholars, along with Principal Francisco Javier Lopez Ortiz as an Educator Scholar.
Gerig is a junior in the Medical Academy and he's also the president of the National Honor Society.
"It feels incredible and amazing to be one of the Bezos Scholars but it's also because of the hard work that I have put in the past three years," Gerig said, "and also all the support that I have received from my family, girlfriend, the administration and number one because of God."
Gerig said he came to the United States in 2017 from Venezuela where he was raised until he and his family had to leave because of political problems. Even though there was a language barrier, he said, he worked hard to achieve his goals and inspire people. He's passionate about helping the community and playing soccer.
"It is a great honor for Inlet Grove and for me." Prinipal Lopez said, "I think that Gabriel exemplifies what it is to be a Bezos Scholar, he is intelligent, dedicated, kind, tenacious, respectful, and has a great sense of responsibility to improve his community."
According to the Bezos Scholars Program website, it was created to give students a platform to figure out solutions to some of the most important issues in their local areas. The scholars have been raising awareness in their community from America to Africa since 2005.
In a statement for the Bezos Scholars Program in May, Sara Billups said. "The program usually begins with an all-expenses-paid trip to the Aspen Ideas Festival, in Colorado, where students engage in leadership training, panel discussions, and exclusive conversations with many of the world's most acclaimed scientists, journalists, artists, and global leaders."
Bezos Scholars Program said the students and educators that are chosen to be Scholars have shown leadership on issues like mental health awareness, advocacy civic engagement, STEM education, environmental justice, refugee and immigrant rights, and much more.
"The cohort's 13 teams, made up of rising high school seniors and educators from across the U.S. and Africa, will design and lead projects to foster change in their communities," Billups said
For students who might be interested in this program, Principal Lopez said "I recommend for students to reach for their dreams and focus on improving themselves as individuals. Education is a key that can open a lot of doors for you. Students should concentrate on getting good grades, do good things for their community and reach out for mentorship opportunities. If they are interested in this program they should apply and talk to an educator that is willing to take this journey with them."

OnePlus One camera not zooming
I have the latest version of UBPorts on my OnePlus One phone. Today I came to use the camera and the zoom did not work. Is this a known issue or is there spmething that bi need to do to activate this feature?
Hey @UKPhil,
Did the camera zoom UI was displayed when you tried to zoom?
Yes the zoom bar was displayed and moved up and down, but the zoom number never left 1.
The situation remained the same or something changed? Not only the zoom doesn't work but also the flash. Is it true?
thanks... I looked for without result
@advocatux yep oneof them issues I raised, just surprised that I did not put the reference number in here. Hopefully this will come along soon as there seems to have been a stop on all development currently. Or it appears that way with no releases.
@ukphil All effort is being directed at 16.04 and fixing bugs before the stable release of that. If its not your daily driver why not try the RC version of 16.04 and see how its going. The dev version is pretty good also.
@ukphil yep, as @Lakotaubp says, all development is on xenial now and there are (almost) daily updates on 16.04 devel channel, and weekly updates on RC channel.
You can take a look to https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/milestones and check the bugs that are still open and the ones that have been closed.
@advocatux you say daily and weekly updates? I have not had anything for a few months now. Does that mean that i have an issue with my updates as I have both the rc and dev versions on my machines.
@ukphil do you have devel and/or RC on 15.04 or 16.04? You need the latter
I currently have the 15.04 but did not know that there was a new build.
I am trying to update it but having issues.
@ukphil you should keep an eye on UBports blog and/or join the UBports News Telegram Channel (https://t.me/ubports_news)
Thanks, think i need to as i think i have fallen off the train way down the track. Will install the new version via the installer on my laptop.
@ukphil Any issues come straight backor try https://t.me/WelcomePlus thats thetelegram install group. One thing don't connect your phone until the installer us running. Good luck with 16.04
@advocatux and don't forget the News section of this very Forum ; )
@lakotaubp oops
@advocatux An increase in PR fees is being considered.

Any time you visit the Car Dealers, you might be seeking for more than a car. You might be searching for someone that know what they're talking about to show you about. This person have to be knowledgeable about the cars they may be promoting. They must know what to show you for those who say you will be seeking to get a household car, or a car to haul recreational products. There are many items the individuals that work at the dealers need to understand. Without the need of that person obtaining know-how of your cars they sell, they will not know what to show you.
The Car Dealers salespeople really should be prepared to show you anything. They should really know exactly what cars are within your price variety, also as cars that match your wants. They shouldn't be showing you sports cars whenever you asked for a household car and they should not be showing an individual who asked about a pick-up truck SUVs. They ought to know the most effective deals on all of the cars they have and how to get you an incredible deal. They must be ready to take you on a test drive for any on the list of vehicles in their lot.
After you go to the Car Dealers that you are hunting for expertise and to be sold on a car. You go in there not very understanding what you would like or need. It truly is as much as the salesperson to show you what you need. That is true for each made use of and new cars. A fantastic sales person can sell anybody a car. Even so They must be knowledgeable. With no basic expertise they won't sell anyone a car.
After you are deciding on a car at the Car Dealers you happen to be selecting transportation for you and perhaps for your family. You need to obtain a protected vehicle, a dependable vehicle and perhaps even a enjoyable automobile. The individual that aids you locate what that you are seeking for must know what to show you and try to sell you. The most beneficial car dealers know you desires. They know what you're looking for and they must be prepared to bend over backward to help you, in any way they could.

We make a systematic study of the cosmological dynamics for a number of f(R) gravity theories in Palatini formalism, using phase space analysis as well as numerical simulations. Considering homogeneous and isotropic models, we find a number of interesting results: (i) models based on theories of the type (a) f(R)=R-β/Rn and (b) f(R)=R+αln R-β, unlike the metric formalism, are capable of producing the sequence of radiation-dominated, matter-dominated, and de Sitter periods, and (ii) models based on theories of the type (c) f(R)=R+αRm-β/Rn can produce early as well as late accelerating phases but an early inflationary epoch does not seem to be compatible with the presence of a subsequent radiation-dominated era. Thus, for the classes of models considered here, we have been unable to find the sequence of all four dynamical epochs required to account for the complete cosmological dynamics, even though three out of four phases are possible. We also place observational constraints on these models using the recently released supernovae data by the Supernova Legacy Survey as well as the baryon acoustic oscillation peak in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey luminous red galaxy sample and the cosmic microwave background shift parameter. The best-fit values are found to be n=0.027, β=4.63 for the models based on (a) and α=0.11, β=4.62 for the models based on (b), neither of which are significantly preferred over the ΛCDM model. Moreover, the logarithmic term alone is not capable of explaining the late acceleration. The models based on (c) are also consistent with the data with suitable choices of their parameters. We also find that some of the models for which the radiation-dominated epoch is absent prior to the matter-dominated era also fit the data. The reason for this apparent contradiction is that the combination of the data considered here does not place stringent enough constraints on the cosmological evolution prior to the decoupling epoch, which highlights the importance of our combined theoretical-observational approach to constrain models.

It's a fact of life that some of us will end up dying without a Will. Some of us may simply never get around to making one. Or some others may make a Will, but unbeknownst to them it may become revoked by law (such as if that person gets married). When a person dies without a Will, legislation determines who administers the estate, and who the beneficiaries will be. The technical term for dying without a Will is to die 'intestate'.
The person who performs the administration of an intestate estate is referred to as an 'Administrator'. It is fundamentally the same as acting as Executor, which is the term given to a person appointed under a Will to administer an estate. In descending order, the first few persons entitled to act as an Administrator are:-
• the deceased's spouse;
• their children;
• their grandchildren or great-grandchildren;
• their parents; or
• their siblings.
There is an old wives' tail that if you die without a Will, the Government will receive your estate. This generally isn't the case. An intestate estate is distributed as follows:-
• If you die leaving a spouse and no children – your spouse will receive your entire estate;
• If you die leaving a spouse and one child – your spouse will receive the first $150,000 of your estate plus your household chattels. The balance is then divided equally between your spouse and child;
• If you die leaving a spouse and two or more children – your spouse will receive the first $150,0000 of your estate plus household chattels. The balance is then divided 1/3 to your spouse, and 2/3 between your children;
• If you die without a spouse but leaving children – your children will receive your estate equally; or
• If you die without a spouse or children – your parent(s) will receive your estate.
There are further provisions for your estate to be distributed between your extended family if you don't have a spouse, child or parent to survive you. It is only if you die without any of this extended family surviving you that your estate is deemed 'bona vacantia' and falls to the Government.
Even if dying without a Will appears to accord with your wishes, there are some significant issues to consider:-
• Most intestate estates will require Letters of Administration to be applied for. This is a Court order that evidences who is appointed to act as Administrator. This will delay the administration of the estate by quite some time and is an additional expense.
• There may be disharmony between the persons who are entitled to act as Administrator.
• As with estate planning generally, not all assets automatically form part of a person's estate. Some examples of this include superannuation, life insurance, and jointly owned assets.
• The legislation has a fixed definition of a spouse. There may be circumstances where you do not want your 'spouse' to benefit from your estate (e.g. if you were in the early stages of a de facto relationship, or if you have separated from a married partner but were not divorced).
• There may be other matters that should be resolved by way of your Will (e.g. a right to reside in a property or the forgiveness of a debt).
It is our view that there is no substitute for obtaining proper legal advice and preparing a valid Will. Dying without a will should be avoided as far as possible.
Our experienced solicitors can assist you in preparing your estate planning, including preparing and updating Wills and Enduring Powers of Attorney. Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of assistance to you.

I remember the first day I saw the truck. How can you not? It's unforgettable.
We had just moved into our new neighborhood in a suburb of Dallas. I was at the auto parts store picking up some things so that I could change the oil on my own truck. As I opened my door, a gleam of silver appeared on the road, rolling from my right to the left as it approached the intersection.
"What in the world is that?" I said it loud. What "it" was is hard describe. And its core, it was a truck. A Ford F-150. I think. It was covered hood to tailgate in silver medallions. Many were skulls. But there were also air horns, eagles, and a whole lot of flags. American flags. Texas flags. and POW-MIA flags.
But even that doesn't do it justice. It's better to just let you see it yourself:
Have you seen this truck? It's been spotted in The Colony and Plano. Our reporter Hannah Davis wants to know the story! (Photo Credit: Plano Health & Fitness)
Posted by WFAA-TV on Thursday, July 13, 2017
See what I mean?
At the time, I made it my mission to find out the story behind the truck. Because with a get-up like that, there has to be a story. But despite seeing it several more times over the last six months, I was never in a position to talk to the man who was driving it. Luckily, (as you see above), the vehicle caught the attention of the local news. And they got to the bottom of it.
The truck is the work of a local veteran named Everett Floyd. He served two tours as a Marine in Vietnam. When he came back, he was floored by the lack of respect given to Vietnam vets. Instead of a hero's welcome, they were spat on and maligned. So he has made it his mission to change that.
"They all have a meaning," Floyd told WFAA-TV of the emblems and flags on his truck. "Some mark the men who didn't come home."
"It's a one-man parade is what it is," a fellow vet told the news outlet. That may be the best way to describe it.
Thank you for your service, Everett. And thank you for honoring those like you.

Javascript Operators and Expressions
📣 Sponsor
When we do if statements, or a for loop, we make use of Javascript expressions. They let us compare variables, numbers, and other types of data to check if they are true or not. In this tutorial, we'll be looking at how we construct expressions, and the operators we can use in them.
Javascript Comparison Operators
Previously, we have used the below code to check if something is less than something else, in an
if block:
let i = 0;
if(i < 5) {
// Run this code
} else {
// This code will not be run, since i is less than 5.
i < 5 is our expression. The less than sign (<) is known as a comparison operator. A whole list of comparison operators can be found below:
|Comparison Operator
|Less than, i.e. 1 is less than 5
|Less than or equal to, i.e. 5 is less than or equal to 5
|More than or equal to, i.e. 5 is more than or equal to 5
|More than, i.e. 5 is more than 1
|Equal to, i.e. 5 is equal to 5, and "5" is not equal to 5, even though in quotes it is a string
|Not equal to, i.e. 5 is not equal to 4, and 5 is not equal to "4"
|Strict equals to, which considers type, i.e. 5 is equal to 5, but not equal to "5"
|Strict not equals to, which considers type, i.e. 5 is not equal to 4, and 5 is not equal to "5"
Note, we can also put this information in variables, as shown below:
let i = 10;
let j = i < 20; // returns true
Combining Conditional Operators
We can combine conditional operators with logical operators. There are 3 main types of logical operator. These are &&, || and !.
- || - this means or, so we can chain together two or more expressions to check if one or the other is true.
- && - this means and, so we can chain together two or more expressions to check if all of them are true.
- ! - this means not, so if we put it in front of an expression, we expect the expression to be false.
let x = 5;
if(x < 10 && x > 1) {
// If x is less than 10 AND x is more than 1, then run this.
if(x < 6 || x > 9) {
// If x is less than 6 OR x is more than 9, then run this.
if(!(x < 10))) {
// if x is NOT less than 10, then run this.
Assigment Operators
Similarly, we have used the following code elsewhere, to set variables:
let i = 1;
But we can also assign using other operators, and these are known as assignment operators. For example, the below code adds 1 to
j permanently:
let j = 1;
// Add 1 to j with an assignment operator..
j += 1;
// j is now 2!
Similarly, we have a number of other assignment operators, which are shown below.
|Example of Assignment Operator
|What it does
j += 1
|Adds 1 to j
j -= 1
|Subtracts 1 to j
j /= 1
|Divides j by 1
j *= 1
|Multiplies j by 1
j %= 1
|Divides j by 1, and then changes j to the remainder of that calculation
j **= 1
|Raises j to the power of 1
Conditional Operators
A conditional operator is a single line expression which questions if something is true, returns the first value if it is, and then another if it is not. A typical implementation of it might look like this:
let j = 5;
// Check if j is less than 10, if it is, then set i to "hello", otherwise, set it to "goodbye"
let i = (j < 10) ? "hello" : "goodbye";
Finally, it is also possible to add two strings together, as shown below:
let j = 'hello';
let k = ' ';
let l = 'world';
// Returns "hello world"
let finalStatement = j + k + l;

Movie Shot on the SouthCoast Debuting at Toronto Film Festival
Do you remember seeing Charlie Hunnam roaming around the streets of Fall River and New Bedford?
During Summer 2018, Fall River and New Bedford faced a heatwave and it wasn't caused by just the weather. Charlie Hunnam had everyone feeling feverish when he and Jack O'Connell were running around town to shoot various scenes across the SouthCoast area.
Jungleland is set to make its world premiere showing at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 12 at 6 p.m. in the VISA Screening Room at the Princess of Wales Theatre. There will also be showings on the 13th and 14th in the Scotiabank Theatre.
Jungleland is the story of Stanley (Charlie Hunnam) managing his boxer brother Lion (Jack O'Connell). An unexpected loss in the ring leaves the brothers strapped for cash and in a load of debt, and an opportunity to win the cash back leads to a saga of misadventures that threaten to damage the brothers' relationship indefinitely. Jungleland is essentially a tale of two underclass brothers whose wish is not to be rich but only to get by without losing everything.
If you're thinking about attending the festival and heading up to visit Canada and catch scenes shot on the SouthCoast in New Bedford and Fall River, tickets will be on sale September 2. Visit TorontoInternationalFilmFestival.com to buy tickets.

Spirit River RCMP are assuring the public there is no need for concern after an H2S release from a gas plant north west of Baytree. The leak was reported just after 1:30 p.m. Friday, but emergency personnel were able to figure out it was an isolated incident that didn't present an ongoing safety or health concern.
Police say the monitoring equipment on site show there is no H2S in the air at this time, and that levels never reached higher than 10 parts per million. Calls from residents concerned about the need to be evacuated or take precautions have been coming in, but mounties say there is no ongoing release or risk to public safety.
Should that change, all affected residents would be contacted directly, according to industry Emergency Response Plans. There's no word yet on the cause or initial effect of the release.

2020 has been a year like no other for ski tourism, with resorts across Europe and the world being forced to shut due to lockdowns and restrictions. Many keen skiers and those in need of some fresh mountain air are wondering when and if they can return to the slopes soon.
French ski resorts opened in October with restrictions in place, only to shut again a few weeks later due to the national lockdown in France. But when will they reopen?
For a smooth move to France, you need to make sure that your budget is protected to reduce risk from exchange rate flux. Find out how in our partner Smart Currency Exchange's guide, The Property Buyer's Guide to Currency.
When will French ski resorts open?
The French government announced this week that they will be shutting ski lifts over Christmas to stop the spread of COVID-19. They are hoping to reopen the slopes on January 20, although this will be subject to the coronavirus situation in France at the time.
President Macron said that he wants to put a plan in place for resorts to open in January under "favourable conditions". The French Prime Minister, Jean Castex, said that the overall aim is to protect the ski resorts and skiers from coronavirus.
Prime Minister Jean Castex had discussions with representatives from the French mountain communities on Monday. They will meet again on December 11th to "discuss the situation and decide when resorts can reopen".
What can you expect from the 2021 ski season?
If the ski slopes reopen in January, things are likely to operate a little differently to the ski holiday you're used to. Mask wearing is set to be compulsory in public areas, including on the ski lifts. However, they won't be necessary on the slopes. You'll also have to get used to booking ahead for most things, from ski hire to restaurants.
Like everywhere else, bars and restaurants will make more use of outdoor space to ensure that social distancing can be enforced. Après ski can hopefully continue but will be a little more toned down. The livelier resorts, especially, will feel quieter than usual!
Perhaps a positive change to look forward to will be the quieter slopes. The 2021 ski season could be ideal for a complete beginner or novice who wishes to have the time and space to hone their skills. Alternatively, seasoned skiers could take this opportunity to stretch themselves and tackle the more challenging slopes.
If you are worried about getting healthcare in France, don't put your plans on hold – download our guide, Healthcare Abroad. It is free, and right up to date on Brexit.
Is this a good time to buy a ski property?
Demand for ski accommodation is likely to shift next year, with a general move away from staying in hotels and towards private accommodation. If you're a keen skier or fancy a lockdown bolthole in the mountains, you may wish to rent or buy your own ski home.
The ski property market is still buoyant, with buyers looking for clean air, open space and the good quality of life that the mountains offer. Now could be an ideal time to start planning your ski property purchase ahead of making a viewing trip next year.

School of Business Environment (SoBE) aims to build SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, results-focused, and time- bound) CSR ecosystem and to provide a favourable environment for the corporate sector to work in tandem with the Government, Non-Government, Civil Society Organisations and Local Community Organisations. SoBE, in order to propagate and facilitate compliance of CSR rules and regulations under Companies Act, 2013 has been focusing on the complete life cycle of CSR and is having the cutting edge to extend the following services:
SoBE conducts Certificate Programme as well as short term courses in CSR that provide an opportunity to learn from an interdisciplinary team of academicians, policy makers and practitioners through problem-based learning via interactive lectures, case studies, master classes and hands on practice to explore a unique interdisciplinary curriculum.
SoBE also provides consultancy and advocacy services to assist corporate world from compliance and strategy development to custom made capacity building training programs. Our vast experience and involvement in the field of CSR strives to provide high quality support while maintaining a practical methodology within the prescribed time-frame. Additionally, the SoBEalso organises;all overseas programmes related to CSR, RBC and SDGs; CSR Audit and Meta Studies etc.
Research function:The SoBE specializes in Quasi-experimental research. A quasi¬ experimental design is one that looks a bit like an experimental design but lacks the key ingredient - random assignment. Don Campbell, often referred to them as "queasy" experiments because they give the experimental purists a queasy feeling.
Concretely, the research function consists of the following set of activities. First, quantitative work using the rich data obtained from household surveys (e.g. need assessment, baseline and impact assessment). Second , sophisticated statistical analysis based on the rich source of information given by companies as part of their compliance obligations to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. Third, using learning from impact evaluation studies to feed forward into policy making at the company level and more generally into design/revision of Government policies. Fourth, creating a repertoire of successful micro ¬ level company projects to act as exemplars for other corporates and development administrators.
Sustainable Development mandate
The idea of sustainable development is commonly associated with the report, Our Common Future, in 1987. The Report was prepared by the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED) and was chaired by Norwegian Prime Minister, Prime Minister of Norway. The Report is also known as the Brundtland Report. The following definition of sustainable development was given in the Report, "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs".
For the IICA, sustainable development means taking a holistic view of life where people, profits (by individuals or companies) and the planet (preservation of) are interconnected and mutually affect one another. Put in a different way this means that sustainable development aims to strike a balance between economic development, environmental conservation and promotion of equity, also called the 3Es of sustainable development. Executives and managers have to simultaneous pursue goals of economic development, equity and environment protection. The 3Es are the three corners of a triangle and the three sides represent the conflicts arising due to the different objectives of the 3Es. The job of the corporate is to try to reach the centre of the triangle by reconciling and balancing the different objectives of the 3Es. This is what the SoBE aims to do.
Specifically, the School aims to achieve the three objectives of the economic development, environmental conservation and promotion of equity. From the perspective of economic development, a place is a location where production, consumption, distribution and innovation take place. The place is in competition with other places for markets and for new industries. Space is the economic space of highways, market areas, and commuter zones. The environmental viewpoint sees the place as a consumer of resources and a producer of wastes. The place-is in competition with nature for scarce resources and land, and always poses a threat to nature. Space is the ecological space of greenways, river basins and ecological niches. The equity standpoint sees the place as a location of conflict over the distribution of resources, of services, and of opportunities. The competition is within the place itself, among different social groups. Space is the social space of communities, civil society organizations, labour unions and the space of access and segregation. Due to the different objectives of 3Es, the following conflicts arise -
Conflict 1 (economic growth vs. equity)
The property conflict is the result of competing claims on and uses of property, for example management vs. labour, landlords vs. tenants, and forest dwellers vs. investors. The contradictory tendency to define property (e.g. housing, land) as a private commodity, but at the same time to rely on government intervention (e.g. zoning, public housing for the working class) to ensure the beneficial social aspects of the same property, is called the "property contradiction". The conflict is generated due to the fact that the private sector resists and as well as needs government intervention.
Conflict 2 (economic growth vs. environment)
The "resource conflict" is about prioritization of natural resources. Corporates require natural resources, but at the same time need state regulation to conserve them for present and future needs. The conflict arises due to the economic utility in the industrial society vs. the ecological utility in the natural environment. Commoner (1971) talks of two types of capital - conventional" and biological. Biological capital in the form of soil, water and oxygen is freely available for human use. Private industry accumulates conventional capital at the cost of biological capital. This process continued for some time will lead to complete exhaustion of biological capital, for example one indicator is the increase in surface temperature. Importantly, with the deterioration of biological capital conventional capital also loses value.
Conflict 3 (equity vs. environment)
This is the "development conflict" and the challenge is to increase social equity and protect the environment simultaneously. This is the most difficult for IICA, particularly if economic growth has to be slowed in order to address environmental concerns and may increase inequalities within countries and between the rich and poor nations.

In the run up to the Olympic Games of 2012, as unlikely a team as ever can be imagined, trained with heart, gumption, and grit, to send one of its participants to be a member of the first ever female boxing Olympians to contest in the Games. While no member of the team was able to fight in the London Olympics, their storied ascent into international amateur female boxing was inspirational.
The efforts of these remarkable young women was featured in an award winning documentary film entitled, The Boxing Girls of Kabul, by Canadian filmmaker Ariel J. Nasr.
The 2012 team, under the leadership of Mohammed Saber Sharif, trained in the gymnasium contained in the Ghazi Stadium in Kabul—the very stadium where the Taliban executed women for adultery and other crimes throughout its murderous reign.
Eventually dozens of young women and girls came through the boxing program, learning the rudiments of the sport using borrowed boxing equipment, a space, by the way, without so much as a boxing ring to learn the basics of how to spar. Still this plucky group of young practitioners of the sport defied the strictures of gender norms to pick up the gloves to learn the sweet science as best they could—spurred on by their male counterparts who came to know these brave young women as boxers who shared their same dreams of Olympic glory.
The closest this unlikely team of sheros ever came to the Olympics, was when Sadaf Rahimi was offered a wild-card berth in 2012 – an option to compete granted to nations that might not otherwise be able to qualify. While she had been training hard to participate, her lack of competitive experience eventually led the International Boxing Association (AIBA) to revoke its invitation, citing concern for her safety in the ring.
This did not daunt Rahimi nor other members of the team to keep on training and competing as best they could – not only to refine their skills in the sport, but to continue to fight against the very real concerns for their safety at home as the stability of their country and the place of women remains risky at best.
Their experience, however, was never easy—and while the young women practiced their jabs and hooks, they were also fending off very real threats to their lives and the lives of their families. Rahimi herself has since immigrated to Spain because of threats she received, making a new life for herself while continuing to box.
And one time head coach, Mohammed Saber Sharif, also fled Kabul for the United States in 2016 seeking asylum.
Others, however, have remained to continue the struggle. These include Coach Mahomood Shah Mehrebuddin, who in 2018 noted the National team had 120 members of whom 30 where women. Another is women's boxing team veteran Shukufa Haideri who has been boxing for ten years and remains a strong proponent of women's rights stating emphatically that other Afghan women must "get out of the house, fight, learn, do sports … to build a better future for our country."
The sport of boxing is never easy. The complexities of learning the nuances of boxing are myriad. To do so as a woman, is all the more difficult in a world that can be unforgiving at best, but to do so, literally under the threat of losing one's life for even thinking that it is possible to learn the sport, gives new meaning to the concept of "heart" in boxing.
The women of Kabul who continue to contest in the sport defy a daily diet of fear in order to pursue their dreams, something a true Shady Lady should know something about.

This is a quick overview.
The bottom line is very simple: at an online flea market I found one of the cheapest manual telephoto lenses for Nikon and decided to see how he shoots. This time the subject became KIRON 80-200mm f / 4.5 MACRO 1: 4 ø55 MC 36421284 KINO PRECISION JAPANwhich was bought for only $ 15. The low price point is due to the fact that it originally used the Minolta MD mount, but was redesigned for the Nikon F mount with the loss of automatic iris control. The alteration was of high quality. The lens trunk was slightly bent, but this did not affect the image quality in any way.
Initially, Kino Precision Industries produced lenses for third-party manufacturers (Vivitar, Soligor), but in 1980 began to manufacture and sell lenses under its own brand name Kiron. At one time, quite good lenses were produced under the Kiron brand. Due to the fact that the Kiron brand is little known nowadays, you can take advantage of this and find a couple of good and inexpensive solutions from Kino Precision in the secondary market.
The main thing about the lens
- KIRON 80-200mm f / 4.5 MACRO 1: 4 MC - lens type 'reversible PUSH-PULL', for which the maximum focal length is available when the piston ring is closest to the camera mount
- high-quality assembly, the lens does not change its length when the focal length is changed, the piston ring is wide, rubberized, easy to handle
- the focusing ring rotates approximately 90 degrees, during focusing the lens trunk rotates and extends forward. Manual focusing is inconvenient due to slow focusing ring travel
- high-quality multi-coated optics, which produces more or less normal color on digital cameras. The 'MC' marking on the lens barrel pays off
- there is a very convenient and successful focal length lock "ZOOMLOCK" (zoom lock). This lock prevents the spontaneous movement of the piston and firmly fixes the focal length at the selected value. This lock allows you to conditionally make a fix with a convenient focusing from the lens. This lock is lacking in many similar piston lenses
- there is a good macro mode with a maximum magnification of 1: 4, which is very good for such lenses. The closest focusing distance is approximately 1.1 meters
- aperture blades total 6 pieces
- lenses were originally produced for different mounts of different popular systems in the period 1981-1987
It's important: A very similar lens with a large aperture and no zoom lock was produced at the same time: the KIRON 80-200mm f / 4 MACRO 1: 4 MC KINO PRECISION JAPAN.
Sample Photos
Important: the final result is greatly influenced by the settings Picture Controlwhich is responsible for the settings for managing snapshots. If you correctly configure it right in the camera, you can very quickly get a good result in JPEG. Likewise, you can easily and quickly develop / convert the original RAW ('.NEF') with an even better result. For example, the pictures in the gallery below were converted using the original free utility Capture NX-D v 1.4.6 in just two or three clicks. Picture Control applied during conversion D2XMode1 (Native mode for some Nikon cameras, similar to Neutral NL mode) with Sharpening +9, Saturation +1, Active D-lighting High, Noise Reductions Faster +5, Lateral Color Aberration Auto. This immediately allowed us to obtain a pleasant picture with good sharpness, color and tonal transitions, to remove some of the optical imperfections of the lens. These are simple and very important points that can radically change the final result and the impression of a particular lens. Of course, the KIRON 80-200mm f / 4.5 MACRO 1: 4 MC is not optically brilliant, but with such simple manipulations you can get a pleasant result.
Basic examples of photos with RAW source files helped me make a photographer Natalya romanenko (instagram)who used this lens for about a month.
Download RAW c source photos Nikon D700 can at this link (50 files, 700 MB).
The image quality of the KIRON 80-200mm f / 4.5 MACRO 1: 4 MC KINO PRECISION JAPAN is inferior to the budget one Nikon Lens Series E Zoom 70-210mm 1: 4.
KIRON 80-200mm f / 4.5 MACRO 1: 4 MC KINO PRECISION is afraid of backlight, at F / 4.5 it is moderately sharp, sharpness improves significantly at F / 8. On open apertures, it has a good pattern with 200 mm lemon-shaped unsharp discs.
focal length 80-200 paired with maximum aperture 1: 4.5 can blur the far / foreground very strongly at 200mm, and also allows shooting at relatively fast shutter speeds and low ISOs.
My experience
If you do not peer into the details and just enjoy the photograph and the process of obtaining it, then such manual telephoto cameras can often surprise and delight. A 210/4 or 200 / 4.5 ratio is a very attractive combination for little money. True, there is a huge number of frankly weak lenses of the 80-200 / 4 class (4.5), the search for a normal copy may take some time.
Such conventionally 'simple' lenses are a challenge for the photographer and make him look for new methods of shooting, the right subjects and come up with his own processing methods. Even for $ 15 with the KIRON 80-200mm f / 4.5 MACRO 1: 4 MC, you can get quite a pleasant result in the photo without any serious effort or investment in processing time.
KIRON 80-200mm f / 4.5 MACRO 1: 4 MC is an interesting budget 'anti-crisis' solution.

Dawie Shares his Notes and Photographs from the Elephant Plains Photo Safari:
Well, the new safari group duly arrived and of course, after listening to all the anecdotes of the previous days, they really hoped that their experiences would be as good.
And to everyone's delight, the very first game drive was even more than anyone could have wished for.
We started at the elephant carcass – and because the action there was ongoing, entertaining, and at times quite thrilling, we remained there until darkness and time dictated our return to the Lodge.
The female leopard tried every trick, stealth, and multiple strategies to outwit the hyenas. She tried constantly to grab just a morsel, even a small snack, a bite, from the carcass.
But no, the ever – vigilant hyenas responded each time and she was forced to seek refuge in the tree. From there she looked down at the growing numbers of hyenas. At one stage there were 16 feeding greedily while the cat watched for any opportunity from above.
We photographed the leopard from every conceivable angle, every technique, using flash, spotlights, both flash and spotlight – any approach we could think of … it was fabulous!
Meanwhile the hyenas not only ate, they growled, chased each other, snarled, and generally seemed to behave as though that huge elephant carcass was not enough to share. These distractions gave the leopard the occasional a quick window of opportunity to maybe grab a bite or two. But no, the hyenas were not letting anything close to what they now considered their own private banquet.
Finally, on the way back to the Lodge for our dinner around a warm fire in the boma, we saw more hyenas and then watched the mysterious shapes of elephants moving so silently in the moonlight. What a perfect ending to the first game drive for the new Guests.
In the morning the unanimous decision was to return immediately to the elephant carcass, where we found that the leopard had finally given up and was presumably searching for a more accessible meal elsewhere.
But the action at the elephant remains had intensified. The hyenas were still there, but now dozens of vultures had arrived, and the fierce interaction between the two species kept us enthralled until the sun peeped over the horizon to provide light for our photos. Our cameras were ultra busy as vultures came in to land, wstarted squabbling or feeding, or were chased by hyenas. There seemed to be clashes everywhere, with growls, snarls, screeches adding dramatic sound effects to the ongoing dramas.
We left the carcass to explore a little more. We passed a herd of elephants in an open area and grabbed some great shots before they moved off into some thickets.
Along the boundaries we hoped to spot leopard tracks, but although we actually did find tracks, there were no leopards in sight.
We returned to the Lodge for breakfast, passing plenty of Plains animals along the way …

Looks great! Beets are one of my favorite veggies, by far.
Guest Post: Roasted Beets and Carrots with Rosemary Garlic Butter
Today we welcome another guest blogger: Heather from Cook It Up Paleo. She's a young little thing who is cooking for her whole family and sharing her recipes along the way! She even came out with her own ebook, Grain-Free Family Favorites! Be sure to check out more of her recipes on her website and get to cookin'! Think about what you were doing when you were a teenager. I sure as hell wasn't creating recipes for my family. More like stuffing my face with chocolate molten cake from Chili's. Just a fact. A delicious one.
Getting our family to eat vegetables has always been a bit of a struggle. I suspect that the "vegetables are gross" stereotype originated in the days when the only way vegetables were ever cooked was boiled until they turned to mush. With lots of hyper-palatable non-foods on the market now, people have lost sight of the way that fresh, properly cooked whole foods actually taste. It's sad, but it's a problem that is fixable. I am a firm believer that anyone can enjoy any vegetable as long as it is cooked properly. Roasting vegetables has proved to be a lifesaver when it comes to getting the family to eat veggies. For some reason, even the most vilified vegetables cook up savory and slightly caramelized when roasted. My teenage brother's eyes literally light up whenever we put roasted brussels sprouts on the table.
This recipe is a celebration of real, whole foods cooked simply. Fresh beets are roasted with carrots, rosemary, butter, and garlic. The result is a sweet and savory vegetable dish that even my beet-hating mother loves. Inspiration for this recipe came from our vacation last summer when we had a greenhouse just a stone's throw away from the house we were staying in. So we picked some fresh organic roots and roasted them to perfection them with rosemary and butter. Delicious!
Learning to flavor dishes with real, whole foods alone (while switching away from processed spice mixes and such) can be challenging at first. That's why I also want to share one of the secrets to the art of real food cooking: garlic. Garlic is so delicious, and I add it to pretty much all of my savory dishes. In order to extract maximum flavor from the garlic, you can mash it with a chef's knife.
To mash garlic: First, get a cutting board, a clove of garlic, some sea salt, and a sharp chef's knife. Use the flat of the knife to crush the garlic clove. This makes it easy to peel off the skin of the garlic clove. Peel the garlic, then mince the garlic as finely as you can. Now sprinkle salt all over the garlic and let it sit a few seconds. Using a back-and-forth motion with the flat of your knife, mash up the garlic into flavor-packed paste. Done!Tip: If you run your hand along a stainless steel sink, it removes the garlic smell. Try it to believe it.Print
Guest Post: Roasted Beets and Carrots with Rosemary Garlic Butter
- Yield: 4 1x
- 3 cups cubed peeled red beets
- 2 cups cubed peeled carrots
- 3 tablespoons butter or ghee
- 3 garlic cloves, mashed
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Sea salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the beets in a large mixing bowl, and the carrots in a 9 inch by 13 inch glass baking dish. (Mixing the roots separately keeps the carrots from turning pink from beet juice.)
- Place the butter or ghee in a microwave-safe coffee mug and add the garlic. Microwave until the butter is melted. Stir in the dried rosemary.
- Pour half of the melted butter mixture over the beets, and pour half over the carrots. Sprinkle generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss each of the root vegetables to coat them with the butter mixture.
- Dump the beets into the baking dish with the carrots.
- Roast for 55 minutes, stirring halfway through.
- Serve.

Wow. Adding your blog to my favorites. Totally impressed to read about someone so young, who is so smart and motivated.
I will visit the farmer's market, and make this recipe this weekend. THANKS!
Love this! Though I mix the beets and carrots together when cooking because I like the look of the pink carrots 🙂
Juli – totally off topic from the recipe, but I need a new non stick pan! Do you have a favorite? Thanks!
i use orgreenic pans
Looks like a great side dish. I'm all about beets, they are one of my favorites for sure 🙂
This looks delicious! Can I use the prepackaged beets that some stores carry, like Trader Joe's?
that would work!
The ones at Trader Joe's are peeled and steamed already. Will this still work even though they are already cooked?
they just won't need to cook as long
wow! This TEENAGE girl has wonderful writing! I am almost 30 and have horrible writing skills. Go her!! amazing:)
I just got some beautiful organic beets this morning, so I'll give this a shot. Garlic…butter…can't go wrong 🙂
I made these the other night for my bf who doesn't like "traditional" boiled beets. He ate these right up! This recipe is so tasty and so easy it is going into my regular rotation.
Do you need to boil the beets first? Thanks!
Sophia, no boiling needed!
This is roasting as I type this. It's smells amazing!
Made this. It was awesome! This was my first recipe from your site. Thanks for sharing!
This was absolutely delicious! We have organic vegetables delivered every Monday and some weeks we just don't make it through all of them. So before our next order arrived, we had some carrots and beets to use – WOW. This was perfect. Never thought I'd say I loved eating beets! It is definitely on my cook list for future meals. Thank you!
Another amazing recipe. So good!
I made this for Thanksgiving today, it was super! Even my dad who hates vegetables loved it.
So simple and soooo good! The kids turned up there noses at it when they saw it but then took seconds 🙂 thanks for a great recipe!
I used golden beets since they don't stain my fingers and a cookie sheet cause I like my roasted veggies more browned. The flavor is delicious!
Delicious recipe! Thank you!
Two Thumbs up Heather and Juli! So simple but soooo delicious.
This tasted delicious, never tasted beetroot so good! Although the ghee I bought had such a strong chemical taste that transferred to the vegetables which wasn't very pleasant so I will use butter next time 🙂
Amazing! I used olive oil in place of butter. Caramelized beet-y goodness like I've never had. Thank you for expanding my Whole 30 repertoire.
Hi there! I'm embarrassed to admit this is my first time to cook beets. How do you prepare them before tossing in the ghee mixture? Just rinse and chop into cubes?
rinse, peel then chop!
I plan to roast the vegetables first at 400, then remove them and reheat them later because I'll need the oven set at 350 for about an hour to cook the main course meat dish. Will this be ok? I'm thinking of reheating the carrots & beets along with the meat for the final 15 or 20 minutes. Thanks!
This is a family favorite now. I cut the pieces smaller and use organic packaged beats from Costco they are cooked. I look it the same amount of time and it always comes out amazing. The sweetness comes out of the carrots and beats this way.
Super delicious! A new family favorite!

The coronavirus infection in Russia continues spreading at a dangerous pace. There is no more optimistic scenario for the development of the crisis: the number of positive cases and deaths will continue to grow, while quarantine and restrictive measures will have to be extended.
In the USA, the pandemic progressed from 1,000 to 10,000 positive cases within 6 days; in Germany, Italy and Spain - eight days, in Austria - 15 days, and in Russia - 12 days. Five countries have already passed the mark of 100,000 patients within 15 or18 days.
Irresponsibility of citizens, especially young people who mistakenly believe that they are out of risk, makes preventive measures for the spread of the infection a lot less effective. The virus can affect anyone regardless of age. Moreover, nothing is known about the consequences that Covid-19 may cause for the human body. It may decrease physical stamina and change psychological peculiarities.
Tatyana Golikova, the Vice Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, believes that Russia is not going to be able to lift restrictions by May holidays.
"We do want to get out of this crisis on the eve of such a great holiday as Victory Day, but
we definitely won't be able to extricate from the crisis," she said.
In order to assess the situation, one needs to live through two cycles of 14 days in an epidemic (the average duration of the incubation period of the coronavirus). The first cycle is ending early this week, when specialists can say whether the situation with the spread of the virus has reached a plateau or continues to grow.
For the time being, the crisis continues to aggravate. Every days brings new records:
The Moscow authorities were forced to switch to stringent measures after they chose to start with soft restrictions two weeks ago. During this time, the number of infected people in Russia grew from 1,000 to 18,000.
Leading Russian economists earlier warned that non-working days without travel and social communication restrictions would be perceived as an unexpected holiday. Indeed, many chose to go to their dachas, others flocked to parks and other places of mass congregation of people.
A similar mistake was made a month before in Italy and led to disastrous consequences. Soft quarantine and non-working days led to an increase in morbidity rate. Italy declared strict quarantine, but it was too late.
Since last Monday, the number of infected people has doubled, while the infection rate has tripled. More than 11,500 coronavirus-positive patients are being treated at Moscow hospitals.
In late March, Muscovites were outraged by the "draconian measures," which Mayor Sergei Sobyanin introduced in the city. Presently, it has become clear to everyone that the crisis in Moscow is rapidly developing according to scenarios of Italy or New York.
The scale of the disaster became obvious after the Ministry of Health allowed the diagnosis of coronavirus without tests, but only by CT, just based on symptoms, as was the case in the beginning of winter in China.
