Rather than a unitary phenomenon, gambling is clearly multifaceted. At different levels of estimation, there are many other factors which include biological, social and psychological that come into play in several other ways. Rather than being mutually exclusive, theories are corresponding that suggests the individual theory limitations and which one can withstand through the combination of ideas from a different opinion. In terms of recommendation, this has often been discussed eclectic approach to gambling or a difference between proximal and distal influences upon gambling. Rather than being analytical, all these discussions are descriptive. There are few attempts also that has been made to describe why adherence to singular perspectives is untenable.

A Massachusetts tribe is losing reservation status for its nearly 300 acres, raising fears among Native American groups that other tribes could face the same fate under the Trump administration.
The Mashpee Wampanoag tribe was notified Friday that its roughly 300 acres will no longer be designated a tribal reservation.
Cedric Cromwell, the tribe's chairman, says the move was "cruel" and "unnecessary" as the land dispute is still pending in D.C. federal court.
The U.S. Department of the Interior says it is obligated to rescind the special designation because of a recent decision by the federal appeals court in Boston.

Riddle me this: How can anyone take Obama seriously when he says he will focus on the deficit in the next two years, seeing as his economic and social philosophies dictate that he continue to spend our money like a drunken floozy?
With Obama so intent on punishing "the wealthy," producers, and small businesses even at the expense of hurting everyone else (for example, with his insistence on increasing capital gains tax rates despite acknowledging it would decrease revenues), nationalizing health care despite its now-proven severe fiscal shortfalls, handing out $50 billion more in stimulus money though the first $868 billion was a bust, and continuing his planned trillion-dollar-plus deficits as far as the eye can see, how can anyone believe he's interested in reducing the deficit and national debt?
Yet The Associated Press began a recent story with this lead: "Preparing for political life after a bruising election, President Barack Obama will put greater emphasis on fiscal discipline."
Duh! How could he put less emphasis on it than he already has? But we must read on to find out why the AP believes he will give "fiscal discipline" more emphasis. Answer: It will be "a nod to a nation sick of spending and to a Congress poised to become more Republican, conservative and determined to stop him."
In other words, because he will be forced to, not because he wants to or believes in it. Isn't this a tacit admission that even Obama's deficit commission is a sham designed to give him political cover? The commission's report will be coming out soon, and it will give him an opportunity to seize the deficit issue, as if he's been agonizing over it the whole time and approaching the issue deliberately by seeking the counsel of a "bipartisan" group of experts.
We mustn't be fooled by any of this. We've already heard Obama's defiant words on the subject in clearly refusing to accept responsibility for the deficits, the debt and the miserable state of the economy, for which Dubya will always be to blame, even if things are 10 times worse than when Dubya turned over the gavel to "O."
In fact, he barely acknowledges there's a problem, other than the public's failure to possess the sophistication and presence of mind to appreciate his superior prescriptions. Obama's take is that despite tough economic times, let alone the exploding debt, things would have been much worse if he hadn't implemented his bankrupting agenda.
And he's sticking to his story — just as he's sticking to his lies about Obamacare's being deficit-neutral and not interfering with people's choice of doctors and insurers as evidence floods in contradicting both of these whoppers and many others.
So, if Obama does appear to pivot abruptly following the elections, are we going to be foolish enough to believe he has had an epiphany about the failures and recklessness of his Keynesian exploits when he just got through saying the problem is not with the economy, but in our perception?
Let's not forget that Obama possesses a political perspective that utterly rejects the reality that command-control economic experiments fail to produce wealth but instead spread misery every time they are tried. Be honest; can you imagine Obama or his fellow travelers nodding their heads in agreement to this gem of wisdom from Sir Winston Churchill, whose bust Obama drop-kicked back to Britain: "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery"?
If Democrats were truly planning on changing course, why would they be conspiratorially alleging — falsely — that if Republicans win big in the congressional elections, it will be because they "bought their way to power with a flood of spending by outside groups," as suggested by Politico?
Politico says that what began as Obama's strategy to rally his base with allegations about foreign donations through the Chamber of Commerce and the like has now "morphed" into "a main talking point to explain — and fend off the recriminations over — what many Washington Democrats assume will be a brutal election night."
That doesn't sound as if they've learned their (economic) lesson. It's all about politics and how they can spin their inevitable losses.
It's not hard to anticipate Obama's mindset following next week's rout. We don't know exactly how he'll play it politically, but what we do know is that he won't change his extreme leftist ideology.
Republicans would be well-advised to keep that in mind if Obama pretends to hit the reset button on "bipartisanship." They mustn't fall for it and must not be deterred from reinstating the people's will.

Jan Werner - Rotationsstudien - Oswald Wiener
Today there is gonna be the first presentation of a collaboration with Jan Werner (well, it's actually him) at the Kunsthaus Muerz in Austria.
Jan was invited by Oswald Wiener to show this for the first time at the Innenschau - Zusammenschau seminar and festivity. Check the PDF.
7:30 PM at Kunsthaus M�rz

Rotationen is a compositional series consisting of several separate sound pieces each between a couple of minutes up to one hour of length. These pieces are accompanied by intensely shifting visual patterns which are interpolations of colour fields rotating at a very high frame rate. Those can be projected onto a screen or presented on an led wall.
The music is based on granular frequency modulation techniques and uses spectral shifts to create continously changing harmonic movements. The music is played back on a stereo or quadrophonic speaker system with extra sub bass.
Although the music and visuals are both software generated they are not synced to each other. The phasing effects which are inherent in the sound and visuals are also translated into the spacial set up of the installation. The spectator is in the center of the composition with the optics in front and the sound around him. His effort to bring together the disparate elements is the key to rotationen's concept of confusing the standards of audivisual preception in an aesthetically appealing way. It's like a circus of epilepsy.
The visuals only make sense when they are processed in real time with the appropriate frame rate. Videos cannot really translate that. But these clips give a hint:… (to be posted soon)

Cal Basketball Announcer Eddie Kleinhans Inspires Us All
You've heard Eddie K if you've been to a Cal basketball game in the last decade, he is the public address announcer. He's been around Cal a long time and is fed up with the way the crowds have been recently. He wrote a special article for the Daily Cal (link in title). He goes through a litany of changes in the Haas Atmosphere in the last decade, which is interesting to read, before finishing it off as follows: This is my personal rallying cry to Cal students to restore Haas Pavilion to what it was built to be -- the toughest place for opponents to play college basketball on the West Coast. A harrowing, blistering loud arena that prevented opposing teams from hearing their coaches in team huddles, caused them to play poorly, and walk out of the arena wishing their fans could hold a candle to our student section's brilliance. GET TO THE GAME EARLY. HECKLE OUR OPPONENTS. GIVE ME GOOSEBUMPS BY SINGING HAIL. WELCOME OUR TEAM ON THE FLOOR. GET THE ALUMNI INVOLVED. IMPACT THE GAME. GO BEARS!

— Archbishop Job of Telmessos
Some coronavirus sceptics have a rather magic approach, considering that their status, or their faith, is not concerned by the virus. This has been noticed within different world religions. Thus, coronavirus skepticism is often linked with religious fanaticism. Such fundamentalists consider that their place of worship is somehow miraculously protected from the virus, and therefore not concerned by the health restrictions imposed by the civil authorities, which they therefore ignore. They criticize the intervention of State in their religious worship, even though this is done for the common good. Unfortunately, the coronavirus is not stopped by religious convictions, and thus, we have witnessed some synagogues, mosques, temples, churches and monasteries around the world becoming clusters of propagation of the disease, thus fostering illness and even death of numerous people within the society at large. In these cases, religion has been pointed out by some other fanatics as being a threat for society.
Meanwhile, in France, while a trial is taking place over the January 2015 Islamist attack against the French satirical weekly newspaper Charlie Hebdo that had published in the past provocative cartoons of prophet Mohammad, a man has injured two people in Paris on 25 September 2020, targeting the former offices of the magazine that had recently reprinted the old cartoons. Of course, the reprint of these drawings could be seen as a lack of respect and even blasphemous to some people, and definitely reflects a bad timing. This reveals once again a confrontation between those who claim for an extreme freedom of speech and those who accuse their rivals of blasphemy. Thus, a conflict appears between two forms of fanaticism: between a secular and a religious one, which only cultivates hatred between people and which is responsible for the tragic death of innocents.
As we can see, the pandemic of coronavirus has pointed out that the world is still not freed from fanaticism. The Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) used to say that "fanaticism is the always present brother of doubt". According to him, "fanaticism is only found in those who have to suppress secret doubts", and for this reason he even considered that "converts are always the worse fanatics". The Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church (Crete, 2016) has warned us of the dangers of religious fundamentalism: "The explosions of fundamentalism within religious communities threaten to create the view that fundamentalism belongs to the essence of the phenomenon of religion. The truth, however, is that fundamentalism, as "zeal not based on knowledge" (Rom 10.2), constitutes an expression of morbid religiosity" (Encyclical, 17).
A better world is expecting from us collaboration instead of confrontation, dialogue instead of ideology. Religion and science have to work hand in hand for the well-being of humanity. Religions and States have to collaborate for justice, peace and health of human beings. Any form of fanaticism, whether religious or secular, has to be eradicated through education and dialogue, in order to build the world of after. The coronavirus crisis is a given opportunity to overcome our individualism and selfishness by cultivating altruism and sharing. This should be an occasion to think of the other, to care about the wellbeing of one's neighbor, to share with those in need, to help those in danger, to protect and defend the vulnerable.
As the Encyclical of The Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church highlighted: "A true Christian, following the example of the crucified Lord, sacrifices himself and does not sacrifice others, and for this reason is the most stringent critic of fundamentalism of whatever provenance. Honest interfaith dialogue contributes to the development of mutual trust and to the promotion of peace and reconciliation" (Encyclical, 17). The pandemic has revealed that the world is in great need of a sense of humanity.

Duck Tales: Remastered is beginning to be delisted on August 8th, starting with Steam and moving on to the rest of its platforms.
As revealed yesterday by a Capcom employee, the remake of the classic cartoon platformer will be delisted on Steam on August 8th at 4:59 PM PDT. Xbox 360 and Xbox One (via backwards compatibility) will lose it at 5 PM PDT. It will be available on PlayStation 3 until August 9th, 8AM PDT, and on Wii U until August 9th, 4:59 PM PDT. After that point, you'll need to either find the original version of the game, a disc copy or resort to less savoury methods to play the remaster. You will be able to download the game at any time if you've bought it (unlike Konami's PT) and physical copies will still work, so it's not totally gone – but it's definitely morphed into a buried treasure, so you'd best start digging quick.
This move is probably due to Disney's contract with Capcom expiring. It's not great for game archival, but the game is 75% off on most platforms right now (putting it under $5 CAN), so if you want it, best just grab it! We've gotten less warning in the past!
Duck Tales: Remastered is temporarily available on Steam, Xbox 360 (and Xbox One), PlayStation 3, and Wii U. One last time: if you think you'll ever want it, buy now!

From DD-WRT Wiki
[edit] Random encounters with DD-WRT v24-sp2 mega/big r14929
Here are some notes, about issue, where I consider the solution to be a bit hackish and not ready for consumption by everyone. So be aware that you should know what you're doing. FYI I'm running this on an Asus RT-N16.
[edit] Running bittorrent on the router
I'm running bittorrent directly on the router with screen + rtorrent (and libs) picked from OpenWRTs Kamikaze release. Unfortunately DD-WRTs build-in default firewall setup blocks the incoming traffic (INPUT table) in the port range 6881-6999. I consider it to be save to allow incoming traffic in that port range and would be more concerned about security issue with the torrent client and libs. So I've added two rules very much at the top of the INPUT table to allow UDP and TCP traffic on those ports comming in on the ppp0 device:
# Allow bittorrent peers iptables -I INPUT 2 -i ppp0 -p tcp --dport 6881:6999 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 3 -i ppp0 -p udp --dport 6881:6999 -j ACCEPT
[edit] ISAKMP/UDP 500 blocked - or why your VPN endpoint doesn't respond
The build-in default firewall has a special block for UDP traffic on port 500 in the FORWARD table. This port is used for ISAKMP (key exchange for your VPN connection) and required to build up VPN connections with e.g. vpnc. So if your VPN client, in may case vpnc, bitches about an endpoint not responding you should check and maybe remove the blocking rule.
# Remove ISAKMP ban iptables -D FORWARD -o ppp0 -p udp --dport 500 -j DROP
UPDATE: I now found out that the webinterface has an option to allow VPN traffic, so you don't have to deploy such a gross hack. See 'Security' -> 'VPN Passthrough'.
[edit] Some aliases I find useful
Be aware that I've installed some additional tools from OpenWRTs kamikaze release and adjusted the /tmp/root/.profile via a /jffs/etc/config/profile.startup script, currently looking like this:
#!/bin/sh echo "alias pkgl='grep Package /jffs/usr/lib/ipkg/status|sort'" >> /tmp/root/.profile echo "alias wget='/jffs/usr/bin/wget'" >> /tmp/root/.profile echo "alias ifstat='ifstat -i br0,ppp0,sixxs'" >> /tmp/root/.profile

Molly Hatchet co-founder and their former guitarist Steve Holland has died.
The news was confirmed by his band Gator Country, who report that Holland's health had been on "a downward spiral for a while," but no official cause of death has been made public. Gator Country say that Holland died on Sunday.
The band say in a statement: "It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of original Molly Hatchet band/Gator Country band co-founder and lead guitarist Steve Holland.
"Steve was the last man standing and has joined the rest of his fellow band brothers up in heaven. Steve's health had been on a downward spiral for a while, with Steve finally getting his angel wings on August 2.
"You will always be one of the greatest, Steve. Rest well and sing out with Danny Joe Brown, Dave Hlubek, Duane Roland, Banner Thomas, Bruce Crump, Jimmy Farrar and Ralph 'Riff' West in heaven."
Molly Hatchet posted a message on their social media channels saying: "Our deepest condolences are sent to the family of Steve Holland, guitarist and co-founder of Molly Hatchet of his passing. Steve left the band in 1984. He will be missed and remembered by all. RIP 1954-2020."
Holland and guitarist Hlubek formed Molly Hatchet in 1971, and, after several lineup changes, settled with the core group of Holland, Hlubek, singer Danny Joe Brown, bassist Banner Thomas, guitarist Duane Roland and drummer Bruce Crump.
Holland appeared on the first five Molly Hatchet albums: their self-titled 1978 debut, 1979's Flirtin' With Disaster, 1980's Beatin' The Odds, 1981's Take No Prisoners and 1983's No Guts No Glory.
He left the band in 1984 and was replaced in the lineup by keyboardist John Galvin.
Holland formed Gator Country in 2005 with former Hatchet members Farrar, Crump, Roland and West, with the band releasing a live album in 2008.

Help people first; get business second
27th, Nov 2018
There's the old adage that it's better to give than to receive. Many people believe that in their personal life, but few seem to carry that idea into their business life. Helping people in a business setting is just as important and can reap substantial rewards personally and financially. It enables you to build stronger relationships with others which can make your work and personal life more fulfilling as well as eventually lead to business. The next time you are wondering why no one is sending you clients, consider some of these ways you can help them first:
1. Ask how you can help. How can you really assist someone if you don't know what they need? Do they want to meet certain types of people or get an introduction to a specific person? Maybe they would like to spread the word about an event, find opportunities to speak to business groups or get an internship for their child.
2. Be a connector. When you talk with people ask them what types of individuals they would like to meet (profession, job title, industry, etc.). Then make a real effort to think about whether you could make an introduction that would benefit both parties. This isn't about sending them business. It's about connecting individuals who may have similar or complementary interests.
3. Give referrals. We wait around for others to refer us business but when was the last time we referred business to the other person? It doesn't have to be quid pro quo but both sides should be making the effort.
4. Provide helpful information. The essence of "content marketing" is that when you provide people with useful content, they are more likely to remember you when they have a problem, see you as credible and knowledgeable, and trust you because you offered free information. Give genuinely helpful tips in a blog, newsletter, article or eBook. Speak at seminars (your own and for other organizations). Answer simple questions from contacts. Don't be afraid of giving away too much information; that's rarely the case.
5. Share information from or about your contacts. Content marketing isn't just about giving people useful information written or spoken by you. In fact, sharing other people's content is a great way to demonstrate that you do want to be helpful even when you aren't touting your own abilities. You can post content to social media written by people you know or strangers. Of course, when it relates to people you know, they will be particularly grateful. When you share, like or comment on other people's content on social media, your network will see it, so it gives the individual extra exposure which will be appreciated (and often reciprocated).
6. Volunteer. If there is a cause that is meaningful to you, get involved. It's an opportunity to help others in need and you will also meet like-minded people. Some of the best relationships are built when you work together with others who share your commitment to something. People also prefer to do business with those they like and trust and volunteering together helps on both counts.
It's the season of giving so give back to your contacts. The rewards will be worth it.

LeTourneau University College of Aviation and Aeronautical Science has taken delivery of two new Frasca flight simulators for training students studying to become professional pilots.
Flight simulators enable flight students to safely learn to fly before flying in the cockpit. This particular flight simulator model was launched last year in 2018 at EAA AirVenture at Oshkosh, Wisconsin, the largest flight show in the nation.
The new simulators, the Frasca RTDs—Reconfigurable Training Devices—are configurable between different models of aircraft, including the Cessna 172 Skyhawks and Piper Seminoles that students fly in the LETU aviation professional flight program. The simulator can have up to three channel visual display or one and includes digital sound simulation.
"These simulators enable us to provide hands-on flight training safely and more economically for our students and to do so with less impact on the environment, due to less aviation fuel used," said, Flight Science Department Chair Bruce Chase. We also can simulate problems, like a failed alternator, that we wouldn't or couldn't do in an actual airplane, but the simulator experience teaches and prepares young pilots for those situations. We can place the student virtually in locations across the United States in weather that challenges and refines their skills. These kinds of scenarios enable us to train safer pilots."
LeTourneau University is the Christian polytechnic university in the nation where educators engage students to nurture Christian virtue, develop competency and ingenuity in their professional fields, integrate faith and work, and serve the local and global community. LETU offers undergraduate and graduate degree programs across a range of disciplines and delivery models at LETU's residential campus in Longview, Texas, hybrid options at centers in the Dallas and Houston areas and fully online programs.

Newsletter, Damiana Cacao Event & Lunar Eclipse Astrology
Damiana and Cacao Event in Mexico
Open to all female identified folx. This Brown Bear Herbs and Flor de Amor chocolate collaboration will be held in Todos Santos, Mexico on the evening of Sunday, 11/28. This event is by donation. Proceeds go to benefit Los Sagrados, a non profit horse rescue that supports and empowers victims of domestic abuse.
Email firstname.lastname@example.com for more information and/or to sign up.
Taurus Lunar Eclipse:
The full moon/lunar eclipse in Taurus is exact at 27 degrees on 11/19/21 at 12:57am PST.
Sabian symbol of 27-28 degrees of Taurus: A woman, past her "change of life", experiences a new love.
I hope the sabian symbol for this lunar eclipse offers some of us a silver lining. Unfortunately, overall this is a dark lunar eclipse with a lot of tension. I recommend staying inside, journaling instead of speaking, and doing whatever self care practices help you stay centered and calm. Silver lining 1: Neptune will be trine Mercury...so this is a great time for deep yet playful creative exploration.
The sun and moon are squared by Jupiter in Aquarius, increasing chances that the tension normally accompanied by the full moons and eclipses could "blow up". Jupiter forming a square is asking for progressive change and with Jupiter, it will be big. In addition to the eclipse, we also have Uranus in Taurus opposite Mars in Scorpio. >cringe< This aspect is actually exact on 11/17. These two explosive planetary energies opposing each other is worrisome. Mars likes open conflict and bursting forward for their own ends. Uranus in Taurus can be counted on for unpredictable changes to our routines, home, food and Earth. Issues specifically related to possessions and possessiveness and control will be prominent. Because of general tension and erratic actions be extra careful on the road and avoid confrontations at this time. People are likely to be rebellious and very stubborn (Uranus in Taurus) or aggressive in a manipulative, power grabbing way (Mars in Scorpio). Both planets can be counted on to bring explosive changes, in our personal lives and in the world at large. Saturn is square the Mars/Uranus opposition, so real world restrictions (body or Earth limitations, the government, or bosses) will get involved in the conflict, demanding changes. Silver lining 2: Venus is sextile Mars, so if you are really lucky you might get some hot action instead of winding up in a fight or car crash. Furthermore (#3) Neptune is trine Mars. This is a time when intuition can be very helpful. Also, research tells me this aspect (Mars trine Neptune) has been used in traditional Taoist cultures as a time to mix spirituality and sex (set your intention for the best and highest form of union. I'm crossing my fingers and putting my bets on the "past 'change of life'" ladies being nimble enough to side step conflict and just go straight for the tantric sex.
Stay safe! I wish you the best.

Methods & Processes
M&E Case Studies
More information
M&E Sourcebook: Methods and Process
Selecting appropriate indicators
What is an indicator?The United Nations World Food Programme's Office of Evaluation describes an indicator as a quantitative or qualitative factor or variable that provides a simple and reliable means to measure achievement or to reflect the changes connected with an intervention. Indicators are compared over time in order to assess change. In the logical framework approach, an operation is broken down into design elements (inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes and impacts) and separate indicators are used to measure performance.
General characteristicsThe desired properties of indicators, also known as variables, will depend on the approach adopted and the nature of the programme or project being evaluated. All indicators have specific characteristics:
- Numeric = the values are numbers
- Nominal = the values have names (e.g. male and female)
- Continuous = the values are infinite or very large
- Ordinal/categorical = the values have a known order (e.g. low to high)
Good indicator characteristics
Indicators will vary from one project to another, according to the work and its context, but in general they are often expected to be:
- SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time-bound)
- SPICED (subjective, participatory, interpreted, cross-checked, empowering and diverse)
In practice there can be tension between the participatory, subjective character of the SPICED indicator approach and the emphasis on objective measuring in the SMART approach, and evaluators may have to make effort to reconcile this. Other questions to be asked regarding the practicality of indicators include:
- Measurability. Is the indicator measurable? Is it sufficiently sensitive to an improvement or deterioration in conditions?
- Ease and cost of collection. How easy is it to obtain the information required? How costly will this be? Can the community participate? Are some relevant data already collected?
- Credibility and validity. Are the indicators easy to understand, or will people end up arguing over what they mean? Do they measure something that is important to communities as well as implementing organisations?
- Balance. Do the selected indicators provide a comprehensive view of the key issues?
- Potential for influencing change. Will the evidence collected be useful for communities, implementers and decision-makers?
Even with this guidance in mind, it is rare to find all the evidence one wants. Indicators are indicators: they are not necessarily final proof. Indicators do not need to record absolute change. It is often enough to identify relative change.
Part of the process of collecting baseline information should be to identify valid indicators for M&E. Where baseline data are lacking, or indicators are found difficult to assess or simply irrelevant, new indicators must be developed. Some development agencies have experimented with approaches to assessing change that do not use predetermined indicators – instead, poor and vulnerable people review the changes that have taken place over a particular time and related factors.
Quantitative and qualitative indicators
The tension between the needs for subjectivity/participation and objectivity/measurement in evaluation is often played out in decisions about whether to use quantitative or qualitative indicators. Organisations working in DRR are usually comfortable with indicators of output (especially quantitative indicators), but unsure about how to select and apply indicators of impact.
Quantitative indicators are widely used to assess progress towards stated targets (e.g. numbers of community disaster response teams trained and equipped).
Process indicators (activity and output) measure the implementation of project activities, and are usually quantitative. Outcome or impact indicators can be quantitative and qualitative, and measure changes that occur as the result of project activities. Analysis of the relationship between the two indicator types is essential in understanding the chain of cause and effect.
Most DRR evaluations focus on outputs rather than outcomes or impact, partly due to their timing. Agency reports to donors are also predominantly activity-focused, with relatively little analysis of outcomes (and often some rather tenuous linking of output to outcome).
Examples: Measuring progress
Between 1994 and 2001 the Philippine Red Cross's Integrated Community-based Disaster Preparedness Programme (ICDPP) formed disaster action teams in 64 communities, which all developed action plans; 100 mitigation measures of different kinds were carried out. A breakdown of these measures into different types indicated their nature (See PNRC 2002: 6).
There are also several efforts underway to develop sets of indicators for measuring progress toward the goals and priorities outlined in the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA). UN-ISDR and OCHA are both working on sets of indicators to be applied at national and global levels for the five priority areas outlined in the HFA. In addition John Twigg of the Benfield ULC Hazard Research Centre has developed a guidance note on Characteristics of a Disaster-resilient Community on behalf of the DFID Disaster Risk Reduction Interagency Coordination Group. The NGOs in the Interagency Coordination Group commissioned the guidance note to better inform their own efforts in measuring progress on disaster risk reduction and the impact of the HFA at community level.
Developing a ladder of indicators
Projects with clear objectives and targets develop a hierarchy of indicators that link process to impact and thereby make M&E more coherent.
An example is the Results Framework by AUDMP. The principal indicators are mostly numerical and the emphasis overall is quantitative. However, the framework goes down to a more detailed level characterising subsidiary evidence required to arrive at the main conclusions, and outlines sources of information and the evidence-gathering activities to be undertaken. These subsidiary indicators are more diverse.
As with logical frameworks, creation of hierarchies of indicators allows evaluators to form judgements at all levels (activity-output-outcome-impact), to assess cause-effect linkages, and to form a view about overall coherence.
There are a number of indices of national and sub-national-level disaster risk that can be used to measure the effectiveness of DRR policies. These include:
- UNDP's Disaster Risk Index - a global assessment of national disaster risk developed to demonstrate how development can contribute to risk. The index calculates the average risk of deaths per country in large and medium scale disasters associated with earthquakes, tropical cyclones and floods.
- World Bank/ProVention's Hotspots project - a global, sub-national assessment of risk calculated for grid cells rather than for countries as a whole, intended to provide a rational basis for prioritising risk reduction efforts and highlighting areas where risk management is most needed. Risks of both mortality and economic losses are calculated as a function of the expected hazard frequency and expected losses per hazard event.
- IDB/IDEA Americas Program - a series of national and sub-national indices of disaster risk for Latin America and the Caribbean for use in country programming. Four indicators have been developed, measuring a country's performance in disaster risk management, its financial capacity to meet recovery costs, localised levels of risk and prevailing conditions of national level human vulnerability.
- ECHO's Disaster Risk Index - a measure of national risk developed for use in determining the priority country focus for ECHO's disaster reduction activities. ECHO's index combines information on natural hazards, vulnerability and, where available, national coping capacity.
National-level DRR methods and indicators
Indicators for measuring progress in the implementation of national level disaster risk reduction programmes should cover a broader range of categories and components than NGO projects. These could include an assessment of changes in political commitment and institutional aspects (governance), risk identification, knowledge management, risk management applications - such as environmental management, social protection and safety nets, financial instruments, land use planning, urban and regional planning and physical/structural measures - and preparedness and emergency management.
Examples of indicators to measure progress in implementation of disaster risk reduction activities could be: specific disaster management legislation enacted; small-scale disaster risk reduction investments piloted; disaster social safety nets fully integrated into the PRS; and public awareness of disaster risks strengthened.
Examples: Key areas of change and relevant indicators

See ADPC, CBDRM 2004.
Mainstreaming DRR methods and indicators
Country strategies and PRSPs
Country strategies and PRSPs can be designed with targets and measurement of risk reduction in mind. Relevant short- and long-term targets and indicators and related systems for monitoring and evaluating implementation and achievements, particularly impacts on the poor, should be considered. See Guidance Note 3: Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers.
Selecting unit(s) of analysis
Analysis can take place at the level of the individual, household, community, organisation or combination of these. Different aspects of disaster risk are evident at different levels of social organisation. The advantage of using the individual as a unit of assessment is that this allows differential vulnerability (between men and women, old and young) to be explored. However, most interventions have impact beyond the individual level and trying to attribute the impact of a particular action on one individual poses serious problems.

Several students applied the idea to the Vassar community, resulting in a variety of whimsical posts. This week, we invited the Overheard at VC group on Twitter to reflect on their account history.
The Miscellany News: What inspired you to create Overheard at VC on Twitter? What do you want fans to get out of it?
Overheard at VC: We were inspired by the vast quantity of goofy comments that went unheard by the larger Vassar population. By sharing these quirky quotes, we at Overheard at VC hope to brighten people['s] days and encourage students to be their authentic selves.
The Misc: Do you try to maintain your posts at a certain rate? How do you encourage submissions?
Overheard: In general, we post submissions real time in what some may say [is] a haphazard manner. Submissions are received through an anonymous submission form: [bit.ly/2TP6yCF].
The Misc: Do you have a favorite post?
Overheard: A personal and fan favorite is a quote heard in the Main Haus elevator[:] "Trust me! I want to do it, but I do not think we can fit three people into a Main shower." We would love to *overhear* ;) how this story ends.
The Misc: Do you encounter any difficulty in running the account? What do you like most about your role?
Overheard: After we created the Twitter account and sharing it on Vassar Missed, other unaffiliated students created accounts on various social media platforms. This has been super annoying. That being said, we enjoy reading through the silly things people say on campus and sharing that with others. It's rewarding to bring the campus together with humor.
The Misc: Is there any type of content off limits to posting, or would you intervene and/or modify?
Overheard: The account is designed for light-hearted humor, so it is unlikely that anything would be censored. However, it is hard to make a definitive statement regarding this issue.
The Misc: Is there a competition among similar accounts? What's your relationship with them, and would you consider collaborating with them?
Overheard: Absolutely. Although we applaud their success and find it very flattering that they decided to copy our idea, it has been challenging to compete for the attention of the Vassar community. That being said, our account and others share a similar goal and so if the situation were to present itself we would consider a collaboration.
The Misc: Is there anything else that you'd like to say to the Vassar community?
Overheard: While we still consider Twitter is a good platform for this content, we recognize that the Vassar community does not engage with that platform enough to substantiate a large following. For this reason, we have recently launched a sister account on Facebook [bit.ly/2SgWtwF]. Go like!
Additionally, a major goal for Overheard at VC is a follow request from our beloved President Bradley. And finally, keep on saying the wack things we all love to overhear.

Dear Brown community,
On Friday, the Brothers of Phi Kappa Psi, along with the rest of the Brown community, received an email from Margaret Klawunn, vice president for campus life and student services, and Russell Carey '91 MA'06, executive vice president for planning and policy. The email stated that "the Office of Student Life and the Department of Public Safety have received reports from two students that on Friday, October 17, 2014 they suspect that they were given alcoholic punch containing a date rape drug at a party at a fraternity in Sears House." As we all quickly grasped, Phi Kappa Psi is the only fraternity in Sears House.
This news took us by complete surprise, triggering a variety of emotions. First and foremost, we were all shocked by the circumstances of the allegations. Sexual assault and the use of illegal date-rape drugs number among the most heinous of crimes. We are confident that in no way did any member of Phi Kappa Psi engage in or perpetrate such atrocious and criminal behavior. There have been no accusations or charges of sexual assault brought against any member of the fraternity, and no information has been shared regarding an investigation. To the extent of our understanding, Phi Kappa Psi has been suspended for hosting an unregistered event with alcohol present.
We, the Brothers of Phi Kappa Psi, would like to state that we in no way condone, allow or affiliate with the use of any manifestation of violence, especially gender-based and sexual violence, but rather universally and unequivocally condemn them and their use in anything related to our fraternity. As a Brotherhood, we are committed to ending these specific forms of violence in our communities, particularly the Greek community.
We would like to express our utmost sympathy and respect for the survivors of this reprehensible series of events, and our solidarity in combating these forms of violence on our campus. As distressing as these allegations are to us, we recognize that the personal stress and anxiety experienced by those survivors of assault dwarfs our own, and we hope to do as much as we can to ameliorate the difficulties of all parties moving forward.
We respect the University's commitment to protecting our community and pledge to give our complete cooperation to the ongoing investigation. Additionally, we are working within the Greek community and with relevant administrators to develop more comprehensive policy regarding the prevention and handling of these crises. We desire to see justice done and do our best to ensure no other member of our community suffers in this way again.
Once again, if you were at the event or anyone you know of may have any clarifying information that would help expedite the investigation of this serious offense, please be sure to contact the Department of Public Safety, specifically Sgt. John Carvalho, at 401-863-3322.
Respectfully yours,
The Brothers of Phi Kappa Psi
Dear Brown community,

Learn more about Kathy L. Patrick.
Could you please begin by telling us the story behind your story?
My story really begins when I was downsized from my dream job. I was book publisher's representative, and as I was the last hired, I was the first let go.
When independent bookstores started closing in my territory due to the influx of big-box chains, I lost my territory base.
That's how my memoir begins, my first book, The Pulpwood Queens' Tiara Wearing, Book Sharing Guide to Life (Grand Central Publishing, 2008), with the first chapter titled, "When life hands you a lemon, make margaritas!"
Yes, one door was firmly shut, but another window of opportunity flew open and I jumped right in.
How did you come to launch Beauty & The Book?
Beauty and the Book, "the Only Hair Salon/Book Store in the country," perhaps the world, began because of something my sister said.
I called her when I lost my job–whining to her about "now what in the world was I supposed to do?"–when she told me, "Open up your hair salon again, you always did well doing hair."
You see, I put myself through college doing hair, but for me, it was always a means to and end. I never thought it would be my life's profession.
I told my sister doing hair would probably bore me to death. I had done everything you could do doing hair, and besides, I could not imagine my life without talking books.
She then told me, matter of fact, "Well, do the book thing, too!"
Beauty and the Book was born Jan. 18, 2000, and this year, we celebrate our 10th anniversary!
I have found that combining my two passions of creating beauty and talking books has helped me find my life's true purpose, promoting literacy! There is great beauty in books, so I am now all about helping people find their beauty without and within!
What makes the place special?
Beauty and the Book is not just a Hair Salon/Book Store, it is a community center. Not a day goes by that some girl group, book club, or group of individuals don't come by just to have an experience, whether getting a beauty service, talking and shopping for books, or just hanging out! Nobody stops by for just a minute as, the next thing you know, the morning or afternoon is gone. I want people to know that Beauty and the Book is their home away from home.
I always tell folks, "I'll leave the hair dryer on for ya!"
Talk to us about tiaras!
Shortly after I started Beauty and the Book, I was asked to come join the local book club. I was ecstatic! I had always wanted to be in a book club as there is nothing more in the world I love to discuss more than a good story.
At the end of the meeting, I gushed, "Thank you, thank you so much for inviting me to your book club," when the hostess grabbed me by the elbow and pulled me into the galley of her lovely antebellum home.
She proceeded to tell me, whispering, that all though they had invited me to join their club, that the invitation was for only as a guest. There were eight members in their book club period.
Unless someone moved away or died, that was it!
Horrified, I begged their pardon and quickly excused myself.
As I drove home, I was mortified that I had obviously invited myself into a private club. But the more I thought about it, the more I thought, if there is ever going to be a book club that I would want to be a part of, I guess I will have to start it myself.
So I did. The Pulpwood Queens of East Texas were born March 2000 with the motto, "where tiaras are mandatory and reading good books is the rule."
We would not be an exclusive book club but an inclusive one. The tiaras came about because, as a child, I dreamed of wearing the crown like Miss America. But as I grew from child to teen, I soon learned that there are certain physical attributes that you have to have in order to be in the competition. One of them was a waistline and of that I was sorely lacking.
I felt it completely unfair that I, a product of the no-waistline gene, would not be able to compete in the Miss America pageant no matter how hard I tried. So I decided as a middle-aged woman, that I would crown all women queens, if they would only be readers.
We would be the beauty "within" queens, as we all know true beauty comes from within!
What kind of programs do you sponsor?
I tell everybody I sponsor our annual Pulpwood Queen and Timber Guys Book Club convention, which we call our Girlfriend Weekend, always held the third weekend in January, but really this is just my way of saying that I work all year for free to make this event happen.
We now have currently 265 chapters of The Pulpwood Queens and Timber Guys Book Clubs that run from Alaska to Florida, New York to California, and everywhere in between nationwide. Also, we are now an international book club as we have members and chapters in nine foreign countries.
We are the largest meeting-and-discussing book club in the world, which means we all read and meet in our own chapters to discuss the books that I select.
What makes our book club so inviting is I also arrange for teleconferences with the authors, if their schedules permit, and/or arrange visits with the authors if they are in the vicinity.
Each chapter takes on its own literacy endeavors, and I encourage them to do so. My chapter in Anchorage, Alaska; flew me up for their first anniversary and to help them start the first ever Pulpwood Queen chapter in a women's prison.
I myself lead a chapter at a local homeless shelter where I lead a life-writing class.
I have a chapter is South Louisiana that funds and entire school in Nicaragua with textbooks and Bibles.
The Pulpwood Queens of East Texas partnered with our local Rotary Club to help start the Dolly Parton Imagination Library literacy project here in Marion County. Now for every child born in my county, a book is sent every month free to that child until they start kindergarten. That is 60 books, a library free to get them reading ready for school.
I am encouraging all my chapters to help initiate this incredible literacy project. I myself volunteer to read at schools, assisted living facilities, nursing homes, wherever, because in order to lead, you must set an example. People learn most by actions not just words.
So we not only talk the talk for literacy, we do walk the walk and literally–most of my chapters do in the American Cancer Association Relay for Life.
How about programs specifically tailored to young readers and/or involving children's-teen authors?
Yes, a couple of years ago I started Pinecone chapters for younger readers and the Splinters chapters for teens and college age. This began with my two daughters, and I encourage other chapters to lead by example and get their children involved in reading together and out loud to smaller children.
How do you choose books for Splinters and Pinecones?
Most of the books are sent to me by the authors or recommended to me by fellow independent booksellers and bookstores.
What are some recent choices?
Last year's Pulpwood Queen Children's Book of the year, The Underneath by Kathi Appelt (Atheneum, 2008), went on to be a finalist for the National Book Award and a Newbery Honor Book.
This year's winner was Melissa Conroy (Poppy's Pants (Blue Apple, 2009)), who we were fortunate to have on a panel with her father, New York Times Bestseller Pat Conroy at our Girlfriend Weekend.
The "Poppy' of her book is based on her father Pat Conroy and the relationship with his granddaughter, "Penelope" in the book. It was a real treat to have them both speak of her outstanding children's book.
[Above, authors from left to right, Melissa Conroy, Pat Conroy, and Janis Owens at Beauty and the Book Girlfriend Weekend 2010.]
Who are some of the folks (authors or otherwise) that have visited over the years?
My book club prides itself on helping undiscovered authors get discovered in a big way. Some of the authors we have selected have then gone on to super-stardom including: Jeannette Walls of The Glass Castle (Scribner, 2009), Charles Martin of Where the River Ends (Broadway/Random House, 2008), Michael Morris of Slow Way Home (HarperOne, 2003), Ron Hall of Same Kind of Different as Me: A Modern-Day Slave, an International Art Dealer, and the Unlikely Woman Who Bound Them Together (Thomas Nelson, 2008), and Cassandra King of Queen of Broken Hearts (Hyperion, 2007).
Many other authors we have selected (but yet not had grace our doors) have too gone on to superstar status, including: Ann Packer of The Dive From Clausen's Pier (Vintage, 2003), Elizabeth Gilbert of Eat, Pray, Love (Viking, 2006), and most recently, Kathryn Stockett of The Help (Amy Einhorn Books/Putnam, 2009).
Then because our book club has received so much media attention and great features, such as, "Good Morning America," "Oprah," Newsweek, Time, The Wall Street Journal, and The Los Angeles Times, we have been fortunate to have some real celebrities and New York Times best-selling authors grace our doors including: Linda Bloodworth Thomason, Rue McClanahan, Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, Kinky Friedman (who was running for governor at the time), Kelly Corrigan, Elizabeth Berg, and my all-time favorite author in the whole wide world, Pat Conroy.
Would you like to share any favorite memories?
One of my favorite memories was riding in my mini-van with the late, great, Pulitzer Prize winning political cartoonist and author Doug Marlette.
Doug had written his first book, The Bridge (HarperCollins, 2001), and I was taking him around to all my book clubs in Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas.
As we were driving down I-20 from Choudrant, Louisiana; headed home, Doug turned to me and said, "Kathy, do you always have paparazzi trail you on the road?"
When I inquired what in the world was he talked about, he told me, "Look to your left!"
I turned to see a little white compact car driving right beside me with the driver leaning across the passenger seat madly clicking photos of us in the van while he was driving.
He passed us, honking, and I turned to Doug, dumbfounded.
He continued, "Well, I knew you were becoming famous, but that takes the cake."
I am paraphrasing here as it is very doubtful that Doug would say "take the cake," but you get the idea. We laughed about it all the way home.
Later, when I got on my computer to check my emails, it was photographer Shane Bevel, a friend that worked for the Shreveport Times. He emailed me that when he saw my mini-van, he knew I must have had an author on board with me so he decided to have some fun with it!
To this day, I would give anything for those photographs as that was the last time I was with Doug in person. He was killed a couple of summers ago in a tragic hydroplaning car accident. He was only 57, and I will miss him dearly.
I created The Doug Marlette Award, given each year to a person for a lifetime of promoting literacy so that author and friend would never be forgotten. This year, that award was given by his best friend and author Pat Conroy to Arkansas bookseller, my mentor, Mary Gay Shipley.
Not a day goes by that I don't think of him, his distorted sense of humor, which was the same as mine, and his intelligence and grace. Yes, that was a memory I will cherish forever!
You're also an author in your own right! Congratulations! Can you tell us more about The Pulpwood Queens' Tiara-Wearing, Book-Sharing Guide to Life?
I have dreamed of being an author my whole life as there is nobody I admire more than those who can take a great story and put it to paper for print. Never though in a million years would I have dreamed that this would come into fruition because I guess I thought you had to be born somewhere other than a small town in Kansas. I thought you had to have a better education than me, though I continue to be a life-long learner.
It seemed a dream way out of my reach, but in fact, I got a call from a publisher asking me to write my story.
To make a long story short, then I had an agent call me to represent me, which led to me then taking my book proposal to New York to shop to major publishing houses.
This did not happen overnight. From start to finish, it took six years. But I am proud to say that my life story in books was published by Grand Central Publishing, formerly Warner Books. It is my story on how books saved me and how I am on a mission to promote literacy one book, one author, one book club chapter at a time.
But that's not all. My book is a resource book for anyone who has an interest in reading. I have had almost a dozen state library associations endorse me by having me come and speak to their organizations and continue to do so.
At the end of each chapter, I tell the reader, if you like this story, perhaps you would like these books and list them. I give advice on how to start a book club and what to do and not to do.
I also listed all of my book club selections from inception to publication date.
There are recipes as each month our book club prepares a meal to go along with our read and so much, much more.
It's kind of one-stop shop for readers, and I think you will find my story so inspiring, you too will be able to find your life's purpose through reading great books!
What do directions do you foresee in your future?
Of course, I want the Pulpwood Queen Book Club program to continue forever, long after I am gone. I kind of see myself as this trailblazing woman–like Juliet Low of the Girl Scouts meets Mary Kay of Mary Kay cosmetics! Like Miss America, who is always touting "world peace," I do believe that that can happen if we become a more literate and reading world!
My book has been sent forth out into the world kind of like The Little Engine that Could. It's a book to show that I think I can, I think I can, I know I can create a better world through reading. My book is helping me get the message out in a bigger way, but when I dream, I dream big!
I want my own talk show! Yes, I want it to be called "Beauty and the Book," and I have the perfect co-host, author, Robert Leleux of The Memoirs of a Beautiful Boy (St. Martin's, 2008)!
A former East Texan and the most wonderful literate, witty, brilliant man I know to do this show where we show people that reading is not only important, it's big-time fun!
For the last couple of years, Robert and I, dubbed BOBKAT, have been running our Girlfriend Weekend like a talk show!
We have taped these and are willing to show the world that Reading Is The Best Entertainment in the Whole World!
Most films these days are based on books, and we have a really quirky and fun way that is different, but in order to understand, you just have to see it to believe it!
Oh, and if my book were made into film, of course, I would choose Meryl Streep to play me as like Barbie, she can really portray anybody. I told you I dream big!
So I invite everyone to come on board our "Little Engine That Could" Pulpwood Queen Program to promote authors, books, literacy, and reading!
Joining forces with people such as Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, connecting people in a book club (who may have never had that relationship if it wasn't for sharing a good read) is my goal!
I just want to shout it from the mountaintops, but I have to admit a television show would be a whole heck a lot easier; don't you think?
[Kathy L. Patrick shown as as Tippi Hedren Barbie from Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" at Happy 50th Birthday Barbie Party Girlfriend Weekend 2010]
Is there anything you'd like to add?
Yes, for anyone reading this, no matter what you have been made to believe, you can make a difference!
If a small-town Kansas girl with big dreams and at times big hair can do it, so can you!
I may not take myself very seriously–I mean who does when you are over 50?–but I do take the importance of literacy and reading very much so.
Won't you all join me on this wonderful road to reading?! It all begins with one word, one sentence, one paragraph, one page! Then once I get you reading, I am going to have you writing too.
I never knew who I really was until I wrote my book. I have come full circle and found myself and my purpose in life through reading and writing.
And just remember, that writing your story does not have to be for publication, it can be just for you and your family and friends.
Besides, a story not written is a library lost to your family and friends.
Nobody can tell your story better than you, and it's just like my favorite quote says, "The world is made up of stories, not atoms" (Muriel Rukheyser).
Life is all about the story, our relationships with others and how we connect. And now my friends, that is my story and I'm sticking to it!
Tiara Wearing and Book Sharing,
Kathy L. Patrick

HÀ NỘI — Most enterprise associations disagree with the proposal to cut working time from 48 hours to 44 hours per week under the draft revised Labour Code.
The opinions were revealed after Minister of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs Đào Ngọc Dung worked with the Việt Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and several enterprise associations on Monday afternoon to receive comments on the draft.
The proposal by the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs has been compiled under the draft, which is set to be submitted for approval at the eighth session of the 14th National Assembly in October.
Phan Thị Thanh Xuân, vice president of the Việt Nam Leather, Footwear and Handbag Association (LEFASO), said cutting down the working hours to 44 per week meant that businesses would have to recruit an additional 10 per cent of labourers.
However, the leather and footwear sector currently could not recruit more workers due to a shortage. Some enterprises even had to employ 50-year-old labourers, she said.
Meanwhile, it was hard for enterprises to invest too much in technology to increase labour productivity while the number of products remained the same, she said.
Therefore, cutting working hours to 44 per week would cause a reduction in sales for enterprises, she added.
Vũ Tiến Lộc, chairman of VCCI said "It is not the proper time to cut working hours."
"If the country wants to escape from the middle-income trap, we have to take full advantage of the labour force and work very hard," he said.
Overtime increase
Representatives of the enterprise associations also suggested the draft should increase overtime instead of applying a maximum of 300 hours of overtime each year as at present.
Nguyễn Xuân Dương, deputy president of the Việt Nam Textile and Apparel Association said in a global context, China now allowed their labourers to work 600 hours of overtime each year and Japan permitted their labourers to work 700 hours of overtime each year.
If a domestic enterprise wanted to deliver goods to its international partner on time, they might have to violate current regulations on overtime to meet the deadline and compete with other enterprises in the region, he said.
However, if the partner found that the domestic enterprise violated the regulations, they would halt the order. "We would lose the order," he said.
Dương also said that the domestic textile sector often had no orders from partners in March and October. In September, some enterprises worked just 4 -5 hours each day due to a lack of orders.
Additionally, the wage for domestic textile labourers was currently higher than textile labourers in India and Bangladesh. "If we tighten the amount of overtime, our enterprises would lose orders and the labourers would lose their jobs," he said.
Agreeing with Dương, Nguyễn Hoài Nam, deputy general secretary of the Việt Nam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) said "We could miss out on orders from partners if we have problems with overtime."
Bùi Sỹ Lợi, vice chairman of the National Assembly's Committee for Social Affairs, said the Government was planning to propose to the NA to allow the Government to solve the problem of overtime in some special sectors. This proposal would be decided by the NA but the opinion of the committee was that it did not agree with the increase in overtime.
Minister Dung, head of the draft's compiling board said it was difficult to satisfy all people because the impact of the labour code was significant. However, the board would consider all comments to find the most suitable solution.
"The objective of the code is to serve labourers and the country's development, including paying attention to businesses," he said.— VNS

Richard Goldstone, the Chief Investigator of the UN Human Rights Council's investigation into war crimes and violations by Israel and Hamas during Israel's 2008-9 invasion of Gaza, created a diplomatic stir when he published an op-ed on Friday entitled "Reconsidering the Goldstone Report on Israeli War Crimes".In the op-ed, published in the Washington Post, Goldstone states that he no longer believes that there was a deliberate Israeli policy to target civilians during the invasion of Gaza in 2008-9, in which over 1100 civilians, including nearly 400 children, and an estimated 300 resistance fighters, were killed by invading Israeli forces.
His op-ed did not retract the findings of the report, which resulted from a months-long investigation of war crimes committed by both Israeli forces and Hamas fighters resisting the Israeli invasion.
Israeli officials from the Prime Minister to the Foreign Minister called on the United Nations to revoke the 400-page UN Report, known as the "Goldstone Report", a call which has been rejected by the United Nations Human Rights Council, which commissioned the report.
One of the points made by Richard Goldstone in Friday's op-ed was the claim that the so-called 'Committee of Experts', which followed up on the recommendations of the Goldstone Report, had documented that Israeli authorities began investigations into 400 incidents of violence against civilians in the Gaza Strip.
He contrasted that with the Hamas Authority in the besieged Gaza Strip, which he says has not investigated any of the homemade shells fired by Palestinian fighters into Israel during the invasion, which resulted in 4 Israeli civilian casualties.
Analysts familiar with the Goldstone Report, and with the findings of the 'Committee of Experts', released last week, say that the 'Committee of Experts' followup report on the Goldstone Report was actually much more critical of Israel than implied by Goldstone's op-ed. Although Israel has begun investigations of 400 incidents, these have been delayed, dismissed, and under-investigated.
Adam Horowitz, a US-based analyst, says that most of the killings of the 400 children in the Gaza invasion have yet to be investigated, and no perpetrator has yet to be brought to justice for these war crimes.

IOT Based Smart Agriculture And Soil Nutrient Detection System
Main Article Content
Development of agriculture using technology will be very much useful in cultivation. For a new agricultural area, without knowing or monitoring the important parameters of the soil, cultivation will be difficult and so the farmers suffer financial losses. This project provides a brief overview of the soil monitoring system using sensors. Various soil sensors are used to measure temperature, moisture and light, humidity and ph value. The information from the sensors in the soil is sent to the MCP3204 A/D converter then from A/D converter it send to the cloud through Raspberry pi. Finally we can see the information saved to cloud on mobile phone as well as laptop. On the basis of information we know which crop is suitable with given soil parameter. Thus this advanced technology helps the farmers to know the accurate parameters of the soil thus making the soil testing procedure easier.

Over the last few weeks, I've been choosing my books on a whim, reading literally whatever I felt like reading. Meanwhile, my TBR pile has continued increasing! So the Tackle Your TBR Read-a-thon challenge is coming at the perfect time. Hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings, this read-a-thon is for all readers—you don't need a blog to participate!
The Read-a-thon runs from September 11-24, and my goals are, admittedly, pretty high 😂. Some of these books must be read soon because of upcoming blog tours; others are ones I've wanted to get to for a while and just haven't.

Late last week an arbitrator ruled that the School Department violated our collective bargaining agreement by not including tutor-fellows hired by the Blueprint Schools Network, Inc. in our paraprofessional bargaining unit.
The 11 tutor-fellows, employed at English High School and the Elihu Greenwood School, earned less than similarly-qualified BTU paraprofessionals and also suffered a loss in benefits. The BTU argued that these tutor-fellows belong in the BTU paraprofessional unit, where those with a Bachelor's degree would have earned $22.89 per hour last year, which was more than Blueprint was paying them. The 11 Blueprint tutor-fellows are entitled to retroactive pay with benefits. We will be in touch with them.
In the future, they belong in the paraprofessional unit with all rights and benefits.
A BPS paraprofessional with a bachelor's degree earned slightly more than $28,000 per year for 2013-14, working the traditional 6 hour, 10 minute school day. Many Blueprint tutor-fellows have a bachelor's degree and work at least that amount of time each day. Blueprintcurrently pays their teacher fellows $20,000 to $21,000 per year. Where applicable, tutor-fellows will be eligible for back pay. Blueprint fellows would also receive, among other items, a retroactive dental benefit.
We welcome the Blueprint teacher-fellows to our ranks.
Staff at the Greenwood and the English High School — feel free to circulate this information to the Blueprint fellows, and let them know we will be in touch.
Blueprint currently manages the Dever School under an arrangement with the state, which placed the Dever into Level 5 receivership. The BTU has raised a number of issues surrounding Blueprint's takeover of the Dever, including its mandate of 700 hours (a 58% increase in the work year) of additional school time for all employees without providing any compensation.
