You've let the good times roll (or "Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler", as the motto goes). It's time to gather your party beads and empty your hurricane cups, because we're veering north today.
If Jackson was cool enough for Johnny Cash to sing about, then it's sure as hell cool enough for us. We'll drop in to see if we can pick up on some of that Delta blues inspiration before continuing on to Memphis.
It's no wonder Memphis, Tennessee, pulls so many pilgrims - not only is it the home of blues, it's also the home of barbecued meat. Now that's a winning combo. Lose yourself to dance on a group night out on Beale Street, where Blues music was first birthed among its juke joints and honky tonks.
Today we pay homage to Elvis, the late and great King of Rock'n'Roll. We'll visit and tour his former home, Graceland, where you will get up close and personal with his fabulously flamboyant jumpsuits and many gold records. The afternoon is then yours to do with Memphis what you will - we recommend a visit to the Sun Studios where many of the greats have recorded albums over the years.
Make like a band and get the show back on the road. Today we'll cross the Mississippi River and head through the Deep South, arriving in the Lone Star state by nightfall.
We'll make a stop here to look around Little Rock Central High School, one of the founding places of 'desegregation' which brought black civil rights issues into peoples lounge rooms at a time when much of the world had no idea what was going down in America's South.
You may be looking at this name thinking what the...and you would be right. After a quick photo op at the border of Texas and Arkansas (aptly named Texarkana) and some lunch, it's back on the road to our next stop.
We arrive in Fort Worth (think western style with modern vibes), ready to take on anything and everything Texan. Tummies will be rumbling, so we'll dive mouth first into an over-indulgent big BBQ feast of ribs, sausages, chicken and more - not for the faint-hearted (veggies don't worry, you won't be going hungry). A night out with the locals will get you in the Texan spirit, before falling into a blissful sleep which will probably having you dreaming of BBQ.
Dallas is home to Oil Tycoons, rich ranchers, a thriving tech industry, and of course the Dallas Cowboys, also known as ''America's Team''. Feeling like an investigation? We include a visit to the 6th floor museum where you can learn more about the assassination of President John F Kennedy and try your hand at figuring out 'whodunnit.' Back in Fort Worth, enjoy lunch and sightseeing around Sundance Square, try a craft beer on the Ale Trail or pick up some genuine leather boots and hats at the world famous Justin's Boots. You will be looking good tonight as we head to the Fort Worth Stockyards, home of the cowboy hall of fame and the world's largest honkey tonk, Billy Bob.
Today we cast the Dallas Cowboys and their cheerleading companions aside and make for the real cowboys of the Texas Panhandle.
Heading west we travel into the heart of cowboy country - yes this really is the way to Amarillo. This town may be little but it sure is mighty when it comes to country living. The old west accommodation even has a Texas shaped pool and a hotel for your horse, if you thought to bring it along. Tonight over dinner, you could try your hat at 'The Big Texan Steak Challenge' - a true Man Vs Food moment for those who have more metabolism than sense.
Leave the dusty plains of Texas behind in the rearview mirror, because we're en route to the mountains of New Mexico. We'll make a stop on the way out of town where it is strictly Americana with a Cadillac ranch full of unique art and a timeline of Cadillac models. Grab a can of spray paint and leave your mark on a Cadillac buried in the sand.
As we pull into New Mexico's largest city sometime in the late afternoon, you'll instantly be hit with the Spanish vibes. Adobe buildings hundreds of years old line Old Town, and hip Nob Hill is peppered with shops, bars and restaurants.
The only way to start your day in Alberquerque is bobbing through the sky in a hot-air balloon, getting snap-happy with the fiery desert vistas below. Quite literally, #nofilterneeded. That being said, a sleep in might be nice too - either way, we'll be on the road to Durango by late morning.
The great outdoors is the way of life in Durango with adrenaline pumping river rafting on offer to you and your fellow thrill seekers. If you'd rather explore the region on horseback then pick your trusty steed and be on your way in true old school traveller style. Durango literally means "water town", and considering the number of microbreweries it has, we might just ditch the water for something a bit stronger.
This morning we'll leave the Rocky Mountains behind with one of the Seven Wonders of the Natural World in our sights.
Nothing can prepare you for the impact of the Grand Canyon - it's a legit 'you had to be there' moment. We'll pull in late today, have a moreish group dinner and check into our lodge to get a good night's sleep before getting up close and personal with the canyon in the morning.
You will be contemplating life, existence, and the immense size of the Grand Canyon with a free day to spend in Grand Canyon National Park. You can spend your day feeling a part of the wilderness as you go hiking through the exposed rock, but by far the most spine tingling experience at this natural wonder is one of our optional chopper rides through the UNESCO World Heritage site. Indulgent sure, but one of those life moments you deserve to treat yourself to. Tonight settle in to watch the sunset on the rim - the epitome of a #NOREGRETS moment for you and the squad.
Immersing yourself in the purity of nature has been magical, but something a little more tainted is calling your name - that's right, we're Vegas bound baby!
Following the legendary Route 66, we stop off for a souvenir hunt in the old historical town of Seligman. You'll be transported back to the 1940s while you stroll past the original facades of shops and motels.
Viva Las Vegas! And you certainly will live the life of Las Vegas on this extended stop in the place so aptly dubbed 'Sin City'. A nighttime tour of the famous 'Strip', including a stop for pics at the legendary Vegas sign will show you the after dark offerings of this absolutely outrageous city. Freemont Street is on tonight's agenda, where the main attraction is a super impressive light and laser show, then it's all about hitting the town, Vegas style.
You have today all to yourself but you'll need to run to a tight schedule to fit in all of Vegas' weird and wonderful charms. Travel the world in a day, taking in the famous Bellagio fountain, a Venetian gondola and even an Egyptian pyramid, all whilst staying firmly within the city. Feeling romantic? Stop by and see one of the many Elvis impersonators for a shotgun wedding ceremony, and maybe even get hitched yourself...(joking). Tonight live like a baller while you cruise along the 'Strip' in a party bus and don't stress, the bill is on us. Later, you'll witness the 24-hour party scene first hand when you head out for a night with the crew.

H. R. 508 plan would bring all US troops home within 6-monthThu Jan 18, 2007 23:37
Woolsey takes up President Bush's Challenge on Iraq
January 17, 2007, Washington , DC
Introduces H. R. 508 -- comprehensive alternative to escalation: plan would bring all US troops home within 6-months
Joined by Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA), and Maxine Waters (D-CA), Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey (D-Petaluma) today introduced the Bring Our Troops Home and Sovereignty of Iraq Restoration Act of 2007, sweeping legislation, which would establish a 6-month timeframe for withdrawal for all US military forces from Iraq, provide a framework for bringing stability back to Iraq, and fully fund the VA health care system. The proposal is a direct response to President Bush's challenge over the weekend for those who oppose his planed escalation to put forth a plan of their own. Woolsey introduced the bill during a press conference held this afternoon in the Capitol. Below are her remarks, as prepared for delivery:
"Today Congresswomen Waters and Lee and I are introducing a bill that would bring our troops home from Iraq within a six month timeframe.
"The Bring Our Troops Home and Sovereignty of Iraq Restoration Act is the first comprehensive legislative proposal to end the occupation and provide a framework to help bring stability back to Iraq.
"Last Wednesday night, President Bush demonstrated to the world that he continues to remain blind to the realities on the ground in Iraq. Instead of putting forth a plan that would withdraw our troops, the President is increasing our military presence, by escalating the number of troops by over twenty thousand. What President Bush fails to grasp is that our military presence is only fueling the insurgency, plunging Iraq further into chaos and civil war.
"The November elections showed just how fed up the American public is with the President's failed Iraq policy. It is time to honor that mandate. It is now up to the Congress to catch up with the will of the American public.
"During his weekly radio address on Saturday, President Bush challenged those of us who disagree with him to offer a plan of our own. Today, we stand before you, and the American public, to take up his challenge.
"The Congress has already appropriated funding that will support our troops and keep this occupation going for at least another six months. That funding instead should be used to finance an aggressive withdrawal plan that brings our troops home to their families. Our bill would do exactly that.
"Our plan will also...
1. Withdraw all U.S. troops and military contractors from Iraq within six months from date of enactment.
2. Prohibit any further funding to deploy, or continue to deploy U.S. troops in Iraq. The bill does, however, allow for funding to be used, as needed, to ensure a safe withdrawal of all US military personnel and contractors, diplomatic consultations. Funding may also be used for the increased training and equipping of Iraqi and international security forces.
3. Accelerate, during the six month transition, training of a permanent Iraqi security force.
4. Authorize, if requested by the Iraqi government, U.S. support for an international stabilization force. Such a force would be funded for no longer than two years, and be combined with economic and humanitarian assistance.
5. Guarantee full health care funding, including mental health, for U.S. veterans of military operations in Iraq and other conflicts.
6. Rescind the Congressional Authorization for the War in Iraq.
7. Prohibit the construction of permanent US military bases in the country.
8. Finally, we believe that Iraqi oil belongs to the Iraqis. Once the oil is in the international market, the U.S. will certainly have access to our share. That's why our bill ensures that the U.S. has no long-term control over Iraqi oil.
"Our plan, with the exception of Veterans' benefits, will cost the American people pennies on the dollar as compared to continuing the occupation for two more years. It will save lives, bodies, and minds, and it will give Iraq back to the Iraqis. It is an important step in regaining our credibility in the region and throughout the world, and provides the President, and this Congress, with a comprehensive way to respond to the majority of Americans who want our troops to come home."
This bill is co-sponsored by: Barbara Lee (D-CA), Maxine Waters (D-CA), Diane Watson (D-CA), James McGovern (D-MA), Barney Frank (D-MA), Raul Grijalva (D-AZ), Chaka Fattah (D-PA), Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), John Conyers Jr. (D-MI), Wm. Lacy Clay (D-MO), Steve Cohen (D-TN), Maurice Hinchey (D-NY), Bob Filner (D-CA), Dennis Kucinich (D-OH), Donald Payne (D-NJ) and Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-TX).
Take Action Now!
* Tell your member of Congress to support H. R. 508, and
* Tell Speaker Pelosi to get us out of Iraq.

A group of European scientists (Seiliez. 2011) investigated the effect of diets with different protein to carbohydrate ratios on the Akt/TOR Signaling Pathway after fasting for 48h. What they found contradicts conventional wisdom:
Activation of the Akt/TOR signaling pathway by refeeding was severely impaired by decreasing the proteins/carbohydrates ratio. Similarly, post-prandial regulation of several genes related to glucose (Glut4, glucose-6-phosphatase isoform 1), lipid (fatty acid synthase, ATP-citrate lyase, sterol responsive element binding protein, carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase) and amino acid metabolism (serine dehydratase and branched chain α-keto acid dehydrogenase E2 subunit) only occurred when fish were fed the high protein diet. On the other hand, diet composition had a low impact on the expression of genes related to muscle protein degradation.So, not only did an increase in carbohydrates negatively impact muscle protein synthesis stimulated by the Akt/TOR signaling pathway, interestingly it also failed to reduce muscle protein degradation, which is the second reason people use in favor of a high carb meal after workouts (/fasting).
For people following the research and writings of low carb proponents such as Mauro di Pasquale these results may not be surprising. However, before flushing your weight gainer down the toilette, you should really reevaluate your personal and training goals. For an athlete whose exercise bouts are long and frequent, carbohydrate repletion may well turn out to be beneficial. If not for muscle growth, then for performance maintenance. A general demonization of carbs would thus be similarly inappropriate as the "fat scare" of the late 20th century. It all depends on who you are and what your athletic and aesthetic goals are.

The scam : The scene is a senior citizen's home or a senior housing building. It's late at night. A phone rings. "Help, it's me, your favorite grandchild." Thus begins the "emergency" or "grandparent" scam. The Souderton Police Department recently reported a "dramatic increase" in the number of reports of this type of crime.
How it works: A caller induces the elderly person to reveal the name of a grandchild by asking leading questions. When he gets a name, that's who the caller "becomes." He says he has been hurt or arrested, and needs money immediately to pay for bail or medical needs. The fastest way to get the money to him would be to wire funds.

Though I don't understand a lot about classical dance moves or anything like that but I could really see and feel the passion in his choreography.
I think it is really hard to become a dancer especially with an iranian background or when you raise up in Iran. Iranian do not have such a big problem with dancing as it is because people love dancing and having fun while they're together.
But when it gets more serious and you want to make it as a profession and earn your money with it the whole thing gets a completely other direction. Unfortunately. "It is not a prestigious way to earn your money and what would the neighbours think? Better you study medicine or law!"
Well, I am so glad that I had the chance to see such an amazing and inspirational dancer who made a choice and made his dream come true without listening to other but to his heart.
Here is one of my favourite choreographies of him! Enjoy! Shahrokh Moshkin Ghalam

Third generation of circus artists, Igor first appeared on stage at the age of three. At first he trained under the guidance of his father, renowned artist Yuri Arefiev. Then he attended the Moscow State School of Circus and Variety Arts, where he excelled in various genres, ranging from acrobatics to acting. He graduated with an Honorary diploma.
In the years to follow Igor performed as an acrobat in Russian Swing and Bankin acts, until he found his passion for the High Wire.
As a high wire artist he started with the world renowned Volzhansky Troupe, where he learned the art of balance. Then he joined The Mednikovs – one of the best high wire acts, with whom he successfully toured around the world. He also performed as a solo high wire artist.
In the course of his career Igor performed many remarkable feats, some of which are unique.
In 1998 he created the high wire act for Cirque du Soleil's production show "La Nouba". The inspiration for the act was an incident that occurred in Manhattan – in 1974 Phillippe Petit stretched a high wire between Twin Towers and walked across. Igor performed at "La Nouba" for seven years.
At the present time Igor is coaching on the newest Cirque du Soleil's production Sep7imo Dia.

Is President Obama getting recognition for his accomplishments?
Is President Obama getting recognition for his accomplishments?
By Roger Caldwell
At this point, everyone in the country should acknowledge that the Affordable Care Act is working. There are now eight million sign-ups, and millions of Americans who did not have insurance can go to the doctor. This is a great accomplishment for the country, but the conservatives and Republicans say the President has done nothing for five years.
They appear to be stuck in Benghazi, and still trying to repeal the ACA after 50 times. We know that they believe the IRS is targeting conservative political organizations for not following the letter of law, and refusing their non-profit status. Therefore, the conservatives and the Republicans believe the country has lost the principles that it was founded on, and America is losing its power in the world.
But under President Obama, the nations of the world (except our enemies and Republicans) have respect for the power of the United States. The President has also stopped two long and costly wars, and Americans troops are no longer dying and being injury. The stock market has doubled, and the national unemployment rate has fallen to 6.3 percent.
Nevertheless, the extreme conservatives want to succeed from the union, or they want to impeach the President. Americans with common sense understand that this thinking is backward, but many of the supporters of this position are wealthy business people and powerful political leaders. This thinking is not going away and it is deeply entrenched in a certain American lifestyle and mindset.
This segment of the population has drawn a line in the sand, and they believe they are justified when the say the entire Obama administration has been a failure. It is a closed way of thinking and thousands of Americans in the society are out to sabotage the accomplishments of the President. If you listen to the conservative media, the President is weak, and Obamacare will bankrupt the country.
All of this conservative media talk is hot air and was never based on factual information or knowledge. The Republican Party is in disarray and their solutions would take away health care from millions of Americans. Just recently, Sens. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Charles Grassley, R-Iowa issued a report attacking the administration for a terrible rollout of Healthcare.gov. The entire country is aware that the rollout for Healthcare.gov was challenging, but the problems were corrected, and the project is a success.
It is obvious that the Republicans will waste taxpayer's money to try to destroy projects that are working. Across the country millions of residents are raving about how ACA has helped them get insurance, because before the law insurance premiums were just too high.
Louise Lund, a reporter from The Madison said, "People can actually go to a doctor of their own. Those stricken with cancer and other diseases can finally get serious health insurance. Obamacare was badly needed, and we are grateful to President Barack Obama for pushing so hard to get it through."
In Minnesota, the ACA is credited for the drop in the state's uninsured rate. "The number of uninsured Minnesotans fell by nearly 41 percent since September and the rate of uninsured in the state fell from 8.2 percent to 4.9 percent," according to a study from the University of Minnesota." "Texans who received financial assistance to purchase health coverage through the federal insurance exchange are paying less in monthly premiums than individuals in most other states, using the online marketplace according to a new report by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services."
The ACA is working and President Obama will go down in history for transforming the American healthcare system. It is time for more Americans to talk about the great projects and initiatives the President has implemented. Americans must become better informed and educated to the truth.

My sweet little baby boy isn't a newborn anymore. He's 6 months old, full of beans and into everything!
Lincoln is such a happy little guy now that I almost forget how much of a rough start we got off to.
The first two weeks after he was born were absolutely beautiful. We spent 5 nights in hospital before coming home and whilst he screamed a lot and hated sleeping right from the start I was in that delicious newborn place where everything was perfect. I fell in love with him from the very moment that I laid eyes on him, and in those first two weeks I remember loving when he would wake up to feed in the night because it meant I got to spend time with him.
During those two weeks I was also filling orders for my shop and planing and throwing Max's party and I think I was running on pure adrenalin because the next four weeks were the hardest of my life. Lincoln wouldn't sleep at night, he would feed and then scream for almost two hours, then finally fall asleep only to wake up and hour later and do it all over again. Every single night. On top of that Max started waking up crying each time he heard Link screaming and the only thing he would want was for me to come and lie in his bed with him. So some nights I would leave Sean with a screaming, inconsolable baby and go sleep in Max's bed for half an hour at a time before feeding Lincoln again. It was hard. I took it all out on Sean and would get so angry with him. I think I did just as much screaming and yelling and crying as Lincoln! To his credit Sean took it all on the chin and just keep on trying to help me settle Lincoln, night after night after night.
I was also having a really hard time feeding Link, I had so much milk and it was coming out so fast. He was gulping down so much air with each feed and seemed to have really bad tummy pains. I hadn't been able to feed Max past the four week mark and really wanting things to be different this time, so Sean and I set the goal of making it through to 6 weeks of breastfeeding and then seeing how things were then.
At the six week mark everything seemed to change. My milk started to settle down and Link was finding feeding so much easier. He started to go straight back to sleep after each feed and started to have one four hour stretch of sleep each night. I made the decision to talk to my Dr about how depressed I was feeling and noticed that my outlook changed right from the minute I decided to talk about it. I started to fall in love with Lincoln again and was finally enjoying being a Mum of two.
Since then things have just been beautiful! Link teased us by sleeping through the night a couple of times when he was around ten weeks, but it didn't stick. He generally wakes up to feed 3 or 4 times each night, but he goes straight back to sleep afterwards so it really isn't too bad.
At about four and a half months he started trying to crawl, which was crazy!! It took him about 5 weeks to work it out and now he crawls around everywhere and gets into everything! He's also worked out how to sit up and he loves it. He will often just sit in the middle of the floor smiling his adorable gummy smile at everyone and everything. He's just started to pull up on furniture this week so I don't think he's got any plans to lie around and be a little baby.
He loves Max and Sean, but I am by far his favourite person in the world and that makes me so happy. We have this beautiful bond and I am so glad that those early stressful days are behind us.

This is a dataset consisting of 13 calibrated views of the same scene as well as dense point correspondence maps between each pairs of views. The dense correspondence is obtained using a probabilistic structured light framework, which yields one or more correspondence options for each pixel in a given view, along with confidence scores associated with each of these options. The confidence scores are based on observations of the scene under both ambient and structured light. Calibration is obtained by tracking 40 points across all 13 views and using bundle adjustment. Calibration files consist of K (intrinsic camera matrix), R (rotation matrix) and T (translation vector) respectively. Maximum reprojection error is measured to be 1-2 pixels in the full-resolution sequence and subpixel for half and quarter sized versions. Also made available here is a 3D point cloud of the scene, reconstructed using one of the correspondence maps and calibration information.
The technical report for this project is currently under review and will be made available after August 15th, 2012.
We gratefully acknowledge the support of NSF Grant 1116140.

REVIEW: The X-Files - The Event Series (Season 10)
George Lucas was criticized by some for wrecking Star Wars when he made the prequel trilogy. Everything he had built up in the first trilogy collapsed.
Chris Carter, meet George Lucas.
Chris tried to continue his X-Files TV series as a theatrical movies series. The last one was disappointing: X-Files - I Want A Refund.
So back to the small screen.
The first season of the X-Files started off with a relatively simple premise: evil aliens are working with the US government. Then as the series continued Chris kept adding to his "mythology," adding more details until it was too convulated to explain even to some fans. He was like a crazed house builder, adding on new extensions and wings that sometimes connected back to each other, creating not a home but a maze.
Thirteen years later Chris brings back his creation as a six episode mini-series. As with each season of the original series he bookends the latest run, the first episode introducing a new revelation and the last one ending up with a cliffhanger.
Even Chris has said the X-F mythology grew spontaneously, no master plan, resulting in an entangled mess. Black oil, alien bounty hunters, alien rebels, disease-carrying bees -- the list goes on ad nauseam. If the series had started more recently it would somehow throw in the ice bucket challenge.
It seems Chris wanted to go back to a simpler set-up with the first episode of Season 10. Fox Mulder learns that everything he thought he knew about the alien invasion is wrong; the whole thing is a governmental hoax.
Sound familiar? This same plotline was used in Season 5's first two episodes, Redux 1 and 2.
Chris has stated that with the latest season he wasn't bound to everything that went on before. Apparently he wanted a simpler set up. Ergo black oil, alien bounty hunters, etc. were flushed down a black hole.
So the conspiracy is now more earthbound, humans not aliens are the villains.
Ho hum.
Somehow Mulder and his partner -- former redhead Dana Scully -- are re-instated in the FBI, the X-Files reopened. Sorry, that's too convenient and implausible considering Mulder's previous shenanigans. It would be more believable if he continued with his own X-Files, sometimes being an consultant to the FBI.
Somehow the lead villain, the Cigarette Smoking Man, is back. Huh? The last time we saw him was enveloped in flames. There would nothing left but a carbon smudge. Maybe he went to hell but Satan kicked him out for violating the no smoking policy.
The mini-series reintroduces the concept of alien DNA present in humans but the concept is tweaked again. Also there's the return of the global plot to wipe out most of mankind with disease while the elite survive. Last episode in Season 10, the cliffhanger: disease is rampant, the world is in chaos, Mulder is infected and dying. His partner Scully is trying to save him but she's startled to see an alien space craft hovering overhead, apparently showing up to abduct her. Again.
I think Chris should have followed DC Comics' example and hit the reboot button, destroying the entire universe to start anew.
Not all is lost with Season 10. If you enjoyed the comedic episodes of the X-Files then "Mulder and Scully Meet the Were-Monster" is recommended. Not as great as "Jose Chung's From Outer Space" but fairly close.

SOUTH PORTLAND — Continuing concern over School Department spending has led to an unusual City Council request for specific school financial information.
At the council's direction, City Manager Jim Gailey on Wednesday asked School Board Chairman Rick Carter for documents and details on budget variances, employee departures and retirements, and explanations of budgeting practices, to be delivered by April 30.
Under the City Charter, the city manager must make the request. But the specifics of the letter were determined by councilors, and were based on discussions at an April 3 joint budget presentation and Monday night's council workshop.
As the School Department finalizes its proposed $43.2 million fiscal year 2014 budget, Carter said assembling the records could be daunting.
"Looking at this, this is going to be a tremendous amount of staff time – it is four years' worth of information," he said.
But he also said he realizes the council is just doing its due diligence. "There is nothing the council is asking for that raises any red flags to me," Carter said.
The information will be the basis of a workshop with School Department Finance Director Rafe Forland, although some data predates his tenure in the district.
The council's directive to Gailey was fueled in part Monday by Colchester Drive resident Albert DiMillo Jr., who is a frequent critic of city and school spending.
DiMillo presented School Department records that he said show actual expenses for salaries came in $667,000 below the budgeted $25.1 million for fiscal year 2011, and $766,000 below the budgeted $25.7 million in fiscal year 2012.
Based on eight months of data, DiMillo said he projects the School Department will show a $1.5 million surplus in its current salary budget of $25.7 million.
DiMillo volunteered himself as auditor Monday night, since he is retired and has an accounting background. He said it would take an hour or two to look over the records – an assertion City Finance Director Greg L'Heureux almost immediately disputed.
"How deep do you want them to dig into the underlying detail of the schedule?" L'Heureux asked. "Look at the scope of what you want them to do."
Councilor Jerry Jalbert said there is a need for an independent audit dating back at least three years.
"I think we have a fiduciary duty to make sure there is accuracy based on actual numbers," Jalbert said, while also noting he wanted to avoid any suggestion that councilors are trying to exercise line-item control on school budgets.
Councilors have the final say on what the School Department can spend annually, but have no oversight on individual line items.
Troubled by what appears to be an inordinate number of retirements in the last few years, Jalbert said he was most curious to learn what new teachers may earn and how the School Department budgets for replacements who might make about half what a teacher retiring at the top end of the salary scale earns.
On Monday, School Superintendent Suzanne Godin said there were 73 position shifts two years ago, and 45 more in the current year.
Those involved actual departures of staff throughout the district, she said. The department has eliminated about 70 positions in five years, but only one layoff has resulted from the eliminations.
Gailey has asked the School Department to provide data on the number of staff retirements and departures in the last three years, salary information on outgoing and incoming staff, and whether positions left open by retirements or departures were filled with a replacement or the duties were fulfilled in some other manner.
Councilor Patti Smith said the variances in salary expenses may also be caused by variables like severance pay or paying for unused sick or personal days. That ultimately led to Gailey's request that the School Department show its payroll budget variances in dollar and percentage terms with explanations for the 13 largest variances.
City and school operations are audited annually, but L'Heureux noted the reviews focus more on spending and accounting practices than what methods are used to formulate budgets
Carter said education budgeting is not always an exact science.
"The difficulty with a school budget is there is so much we have to budget that is based on unknowns. Special Ed is the easy obvious example, and we don't control when people say they are going to retire," he said.
Budgeting teacher contracts requires forecasting contracted percentage and "step" pay increases, with the latter calculated by years of experience and professional development.
Because Jalbert wondered how much of a variance there is between incoming staff and the experienced teachers they are replacing, Gailey also asked for information on the methods for drafting the salary portion of the annual budgets.
Councilors said they would like to learn more about the finances before they vote on the fiscal year 2014 education budget next month, but will set aside other questions about accumulated surpluses until a joint workshop, perhaps in June.

To carnosaur or not to carnosaur...
Vermintide lists have to be in this weekend, and Neil the TO is allowing the 50% Lords/Heroes as per the GW FAQ.
If I take a Scarvet onna carnosaur, I can take a BSB on a Cold One. And that's it, no magic defence.
Alternatively I could take 2x Scarvet (1x Gen, 1x BSB) on Cold Ones, a L1, and a Chief on a Terradon or Ripperdactyl for sorta the same points.
Taking a carnosaur means I get to paint a new model. Either way, it's going to be interesting.
6 comments :
The option to take a monster is always answered "yes". At 1200pts you can easily play without magicReplyDeleteReplies
A) Are you playing Joel and b) How many cannons are you taking?Delete
I'm in Oz, so not attending. My experience of 1200pt events is that unless you can bring 4+ spells to the table (eg warrior priest, lvl1 with ruby ring, hurricanum as I did a couple of years ago to give me a potential 6 spells/turn), the points limitation means you're better off investing in punchy toys.Delete
Monsters will be doubly good as the usual counters (magic, big units, artillery) will be few and far between/if on the table be easily countered (oh hello 2x3 terradons).
Jeez I wish I had read this before submitting my list...Delete
or warlocks, you should probably take warlocks HagenDelete
I'm in the fortunate position to know the answer to the deliberations.ReplyDelete

The last recorded major Bartitsu exhibition in London (during December of 1901) took place at St. James's Hall during December of 1901. The event started late and was then marred by unseemly public arguments about the arrangements made for refereeing a wrestling match as part of the display. Subsequently, during early and mid-1902, Barton-Wright and his instructors toured a series of exhibition events to venues including the Oxford Town Hall, Cambridge University and the Mechanics Institute Hall in Nottingham.
At some point during mid-1902, the Bartitsu Club closed its doors for the last time, under circumstances that remain somewhat mysterious. Subsequent speculation by jiujitsu instructor William Garrud held that the enrollment fee and tuition fees had been too high; it is also likely that Barton-Wright had simply over-estimated the number of wealthy Londoners who shared his passion for exotic self defence systems.
According to Barton-Wright's own report, recorded forty-eight years later when he was interviewed by Gunji Koizumi, B-W also had a falling-out with his "star" champion and instructor, Yukio Tani. Tani had been "troublesome" and had not been keeping appointments. When Barton-Wright proposed to dock his wages, Tani threatened him and the argument developed into a physical fight, which Barton-Wright claimed to have won. It is not known whether this parting of the ways was directly connected to the end of the brief Bartitsu Club era.
Armand Cherpillod returned to Switzerland, where he continued to work as a professional wrestler. He also became instrumental in introducing Jiujitsu, which he had learned from his fellow Bartitsu Club instructors, to Germany and other countries on the European continent. Tani, Uyenishi and Vigny all remained in London and established their own self defence schools, with the Japanese instructors focussing on jiujitsu while Vigny continued the tradition of eclecticism.
Tani made the best of it, by joining forces with an experienced show business promoter named William Bankier, a colourful character who had been a successful variety hall strongman under the name "Apollo, the Scottish Hercules." Bankier's shrewd management further established Tani as a star performer, a great novelty in the popular field of professional wrestling, and the fame of his jiujitsu continued to spread throughout England and then all of Europe.
Unfortunately for Barton-Wright, the new-found popularity of jiujitsu and then judo completely eclipsed that of Bartitsu, and in the self defence craze that followed between 1905 and 1914, he found himself on the sidelines of the movement that he had started. Although Barton-Wright continued with his work as a physical therapist, establishing a succession of clinics around London, he never again achieved the public prominence of his heyday between 1898 and 1902.
Barton-Wright had no formal medical training and, as the manager of a therapeutic institute, he was often viewed with suspicion by the medical establishment. His business was the subject of several lawsuits and bankruptcy proceedings during the first decades of the 20th century. With the advantage of a hundred years of hindsight, we can say that the therapies that he was promoting were of varying quality. Some, like the Ultra-Violet Ray Lamp and the Thermo-Penetration Machine, were among the early ancestors of modern cosmetic and medical apparatus (the sun bed and diathermy machine, respectively). Other devices were of questionable value and some of them may actually have been quite harmful.
In any case, Barton-Wright persisted in this field for the rest of his career, eventually coming to specialise in the use of various heat and vibration treatments to alleviate the pain of rheumatism. By the time Gunji Koizumi tracked him down for an interview, in 1950, Barton-Wright was a spry elder of ninety years, full of old war stories and evidently still proud of his art of Bartitsu. Later that year, he was presented to the audience at a large Budokwai gathering in London; but sadly he was never really to receive the accolades owing to him as the true pioneer of the Japanese martial arts in the English-speaking world.
Edward William Barton-Wright died in 1951 and, according to the late martial art historian Richard Bowen, was buried in "a pauper's grave, because there was no money for a proper grave."

What's the Best Yogurt?
Yogurts have long been a favourite snack for many hoping to lose weight. You'll be surprised to learn that many of these yogurts have similar amounts of calories and sugar to a Cadbury flake. Not such a good snack after all!
Below, I've listed yogurts per 100g, as this was the average serving size. A big surprise for most people will be that Glenisk are some of the worst offenders for sugar. These are specifically marketed as "organic" and "low fat", but are some of the highest in both sugar, calories and have a high amount of ingredients.
Yogurts in my opinion should have 1 ingredient – yogurt and also maybe probiotics but the jury is out on whether probiotics are actually that effective. The more ingredients the more it's processed, if its highly processed its highly suspect, the horse meat scandal should prove that, as again meat should have 1 ingredient.
Protein per 100g in Yogurt is around 4g average, which isn't that high compared to chicken for example, at around 25g per 100g and even broccoli has 3g of protein per 100g
When you're comparing the sugar of any yogurt you buy, bare in mind that a sachet you would know from coffee shops is 3g, so Glenisk's Greek "Style", "Low Fat" and "Organic" yogurt has an equivalent 7 of those sachets in its 125g tub. Would you put 7 sugars in your coffee?
Muller Lights Fat free yogurt while being low in calories, sugar and fat, is highly processed and contains aspartame a controversial artificial sweetener.
Onken Natural Yogurt seemed to be the best brand I could find in convenience stores – so easily accessibly to most people. It had 69kcals, was low sugar and fat and had similar levels of protein to any other yogurt. However it seemed to only come in a large tub so would require portion control. Portion control is a big problem for a lot of overweight people so they may be better choosing Old MacDonnells brand instead as it was easily available in 100g pots.
Glenisk, Yoplait and most other big brand yogurts should be viewed in much the same way as any sugary treat, to be enjoyed in moderation. You should always check your labels for sugar, fat, calories and artificial sweeteners like aspartame. A truly healthy yogurt will be low in all of these. Don't forget to follow me on Facebook to get more articles like this.

We all need a few days break to re-energize our life, to handle with everyday stress and tension there must be a mix and match of different experience, relaxation, and fun in life. Kids also get bored of the same routine of going to school and doing homework. In fact in our day to day routine and work pressure finding time to be with our kids to play with them becomes very difficult. So the best time to spend time with family and strengthening the bond with each other is travel holidays.
Before planning for a family holiday one should decide on, whether they want to go for a hill or beach, hot or cold weather, adventure or a leisure, off the beaten track or a tried destination, you want to travel independently or with a travel organizer.
While planning your trip you should do a good research about the place. Sometimes you get a suspiciously cheaper flight rate before booking them through a third party website do a good research about it. If the flight to a place where you want to travel is expensive then try the break journey, it can save you some money.
To stay in the capital city may cost you more so you can always try the second city which is less expensive and more adventurous to stay. If you take a long time to decide on whether to go or not the trip may become expensive because more time you take to decide more expensive it becomes, be it air ticket or stay.
When you are on holiday with family safe choice is always a good choice. Don't think about the adventures which millions of people have taken before you, staying safe and enjoying your family matters than the risky adventures.
You can always search for a location near to your hometown than fancy locations. Sometimes you may get surprised with the serenity and beauty of the place located close to you. To know more about this visit lastminuteWeb corendon.

Mohun Bagan coach Sanjoy Sen steps down after loss to Chennai City FC
Mohun Bagan coach Sanjoy Sen stepped down from his position after Mohun Bagan lost 1-2 to Chennai City FC in the I-League on Tuesday.Sanjoy Sen was on a 32-match unbeaten streak at home since being appointed the coach of the Kolkata giants. However, he was under fire after Bagan had drawn three home games this season. With the loss on Tuesday, the green and maroon brigade stretched their winless run to four games after three home draws against Shillong Lajong FC, Neroca FC and Indian Arrows.Despite Chennai being a man down, they put up a spirited performance and punished Bagan for their indecisiveness and lack of quality in front of the goal. "It's the end of the road for me. It is the right time to take responsibility on my shoulders and move way from the club," Sen told reporters after the harrowing reversal."I lost at home and I had decided that I would step down if that happened. I don't have the mentality to work at this club anymore," the 57-year-old added. Minutes after Sen announced his resignation, Bagan clun director Debasish Dutta told reporters that there would be no practice on Wednesday http://www.officialbaseballcardinalsstore.com/Kolten_Wong_Jerseyand before Bagan take http://www.seahawksofficialfootballonline.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_KAM_CHANCELLOR_JERSEY.htmlthe field the day after, the new coach will be named. "He (Sanjoy Sen) came to me after the game and told me he wanted to quit. We will decide overnight and by Anthony Steen Jersey tomorrow noon we will send in the name of the new coach through press release," Dutta said. Sen went on to say that it is his personal decision and these things keep happening across the world."I am not complaining. Across the world these things happen. It is a personal decision and I conveyed it to the club officials and the players," he said. "I'll go back to lead a normal family life, have 'adda' with my friends and watch football from the comfort of my home," the I-League winning coach added.Bagan are currently reeling in the fifth spot in the league table with just two wins from seven matches. Bagan had edged out city rivals East Bengal 1-0 on December 3 Denis Potvin Womens Jersey but since then, Bagan have failed to shine.Ahead of the season, Bagan's invaluable man Katsumi Yusa had changed alliances and made a move to the other side of the city in East Bengal. Sen helped Mohun Bagan win the I-League in the 2014-15 season. He was appointed the chief coach for the Mariners in December 2014 after the club parted ways with technical director Subhas Bhowmick.

2001 E Madison St.
RSVP on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/426429671184185/
Sponsored by Seattle Clinic Defense
There is a group that protests the Madison St. location of Planned Parenthood once a month, harassing patients and contributing to the stigma of those just trying to get healthcare. When we show up as clinic defenders, with supportive smiles for patients and workers, we see a decrease in the amount of yelling and direct confrontation that happens. Our goal is to take back the political space that they have staked out and let them know that their behavior is unacceptable.
***We will be having an orientation to clinic defense at 8:45 and starting our defense at 9:00***
If you have never been to a clinic defense, please plan to come at 8:45. We will meet across the street from the clinic. (Sometimes people cluster on the side of the street that the clinic is on– generally look for pink items of clothing and pro-choice signs)
Please note: this Planned Parenthood will be open during this defense, so our tactics in blocking the anti-choicers will be centered on ensuring that we are creating a supportive presence for patients. We ask that if you have not done a clinic defense before, please arrive 15 min early for training on deescalation tactics.
We will be having an organizing meeting at the Queen Bee afterwards, some join us to discuss getting involved and our upcoming events!

Beth Weingast, will speak on Yemenite Jewelry. Jewish silversmiths who hailed from Yemen were highly acclaimed craftsmen who dominated craft production in precious metals in the southern Arabian peninsula, from the 19th to mid-20th century where the metal techniques were sought after by Muslims who commissioned ceremonial sword fittings, snuff boxes, belts, and horse ornaments.
The silversmiths developed techniques for fine granulation, filigree, twisted wire and flowers. The Jewish community relied on the silversmiths for intricate jewelry to adorn women with neckpieces, bracelets, and earrings, and ritual and ceremonial objects. But it was the bridal jewelry that are most revered; Embroidered headdresses were adorned with cascades of silver work. In the 1940s many metalsmiths moved to Palestine which would soon become Israel.

For my parents' wedding anniversary, I decided to bake cupcakes for them. Please take note that I'm not really a big baking expert, I just love to eat.
I remember going to this cute cupcake store in New York called Magnolia Bakery, which I'm sure most of you have heard of. They say it's a must-go-to place when you are traveling to New York City. I ordered their red velvet cupcakes which were pretty good but I never got to try their vanilla cupcakes.
They were giving away their recipe for their vanilla cupcake and buttercream frosting all over the internet so I gave it a shot.
Cupcake Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cup self rising flour
- 1 1/4 cup cake flour
- 1 cup softened unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Line cupcake pans with paper liners.
- Chop butter into cubes and set aside.
- Whisk the eggs in a bowl and set aside.
- Combine the milk and vanilla
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: cake flour, self rising flour, and sugar
- Combine the butter cubes with the dry ingredients using a mixer
- Add half of the milk and vanilla mixture and mix it well at medium speed
- Slowly pour in the eggs and the rest of the milk and vanilla mixture and mix at low speed until it turns nice and fluffy
- Scoop the batter into the pans (about 3/4 full)
- Bake for 20-25 minutes
Frosting Ingredients:
- 1 cup softened unsalted butter
- 4 cups confectioners sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons of milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Cream butter in a mixing bowl
- Add vanilla and sugar on cup at a time
- When mixture starts to thicken add 2 tbsp of milk
- Beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy
- Add more milk for thinner consistency
- Store icing at room temperature
I wasn't brave enough to do that famous Magnolia Bakery swirl. I heard it takes 40 hours to perfect that swirl technique. So I just placed a dollop of icing and smoothened it with a spatula. I sprinkled some golden hearts for that "extra love" heehee.
The Verdict:
I have to be honest here. I don't like the icing because it felt like I was eating a whole stick of butter. Although the cake batter was light and easy to handle, there wasn't really anything special with the flavor. I suggest adding lemon zest to it.
Maybe if you have a sweet tooth, you'd love it. I have been eating healthy for the past month (no sweets, no fast food, no soda, mostly fruits and veggies and soy) maybe that's why my taste buds are not used to this type of richness anymore.
I checked my calorie counter app and found out that this vanilla cupcake is 389 calories. So much for dieting! Haha.
I guess what I will do next time is I should try to make desserts that are much more healthier and less fattening.

In the fall BARC hosts Taste of Italy, a food and wine tasting fundraiser that brings local winemakers and residents together. The final fundraiser every year occurs around the winter holidays, when BARC sells a sponsored lottery calendar. BARC also raises funds for projects and administration through its annual membership program, which is supported by current and former Brownsville residents. All of BARC's fundraising and rental income goes toward the fulfillment of BARC's mission statement.
Most recently, BARC has focused its efforts on what is dubbed "The Keystone Project" which addresses renovating both 25 & 27 Market Street, in the heart of downtown. BARC obtained these properties at a very reasonable price from a town resident who had faith in BARC's mission and capacity to breathe new life in to Brownsville's downtown. Upon receiving these properties, BARC committed to remediating them and turning the blighted properties into aesthetically pleasing structures that will contribute to rebirth of Brownsville's urban core.

Football — or "soccer", depending on where you live — is the most popular sport in the world, so it's no surprise the game is played in some of the biggest stadiums in the world.
The largest 18 football stadiums, measured by capacity, are located all over the globe.
In fact every continent other than Antarctica makes an appearance on the list. Asia has the most with six, while Europe has five.
Even nations countries like the USA and Australia — where football hasn't traditionally been hugely popular but is growing in appeal — landed in the top ten.
Check out the 18 biggest stadiums on earth below.

There are many reasons why you might plan a casual wedding reception. Perhaps you don't have the funds to throw a large catered party. Maybe it's more your style to be low-key and outdoorsy. Whatever the reason you're thinking of a casual reception, rest assured, there are some great ideas to make your day lovely. Just because you're going casual doesn't mean you can't have memorable and elegant.
First decide how casual "casual" is to you and your groom. Does it mean shorts and flip flops or a sit down family style meal in a vineyard? This will determine how you go about planning the whole event.
Most casual weddings are smaller affairs with a more intimate guest list. This isn't always the case, but remember that managing a larger crowd can be harder if you're opting for a less formal setting. You want to be able to tend to everyone and make sure they're having a good time, so create a guest list that will allow you to do just that.
The venue you host a casual reception in can be anything to your mom and dad's backyard with a port-o-potty to a country estate with a vineyard. You want to make sure your idea of casual coincides with the setting. Are paper plates your idea of a good time? Go for it! Don't want to splurge on a DJ? Then why not host your wedding outdoors with your mp3 player hooked up to speakers as your soundtrack? You can do a classy barbecue. Just be clear what the dress code is. If you intend a more dressy casual attire and want to wear an elegant dress, let guests know on the invitation. No one wants to be the one to show up in cutoff shorts if everyone else is in Dockers and collared shirts.
Your DIY wedding invitations will give your guests the first impression of the reception. Make it a funky computer printed card if you want a more laid back and summery vibe. If you want everything to be comfortable and yet still high-end have your invitations printed. That alone will help set the tone. Include specifics on the invitation such as "outdoor barbecue, bring the kids" or "sit down dinner in the park, dressy casual attire." The more information your invitation includes, the more comfortable everyone will feel.
You don't have to spend a bundle to have a great casual wedding. And these days, everyone is looking for ways to pull off a classy event in an affordable way. Try warehouse stores like Sam's Club and Costco for items you can buy ahead of time in bulk. You can get everything to all your non-alcoholic drinks and mixers to the appetizers, cold cut trays or racks of beef, and even the cake. Often, there is a manager designated to help customers plan for events, so they can guide you through the process of deciding how much food you'll need. You can even stock up on plastic silverware that's got a metallic finish that makes it look real and tablecloths and plastic wine glasses.
Guests will be expecting a more serve-yourself atmosphere, so relax and set out tubs with cans of soda and beer on ice, finger foods on trays and other self-serve goodies. No one's going to expect an open bar with every liquor choice imaginable. Just opt for a few great beers and choice wines and some non-alcoholic choices. Or you can even do a BYOB where everyone comes with their own favorite drink to share.
Casual these days can mean just about anything you want it to. If you want to wear a simple white dress to the ankles, go ahead. If you're more of a shorts and t-shirt gal, no one's going to stop you. If you're having a pool party, you could even show up in your bathing suit. As long as you are comfortable, your guests will be too.
Just be sure you have adequate access to restrooms. Will people be invited to go through mom's house to use the bathroom or are you going to rent outdoor portables? If you're asking women to come dressy casual, you may want to consider an indoor bathroom facility for their comfort.

Katrina………….what to say…………………..what hasn't been said? It is amazing how ridiculous people get when there is a crisis on our hands, blaming anyone and everyone in site, turning everything into a bout of discrimination against a certain race or class of people. THIS WAS A NATURAL DISASTER. People make things so complicated. Yes, this was avoidable, the levies and pumps could have been and should have been fixed, but if they said they were raising your taxes to make the necessary repairs would you have graciously obliged? Now that they have broken who do you blame? The government? You were strongly advised to evacuate in fear of this possible disaster. However, you choose to stay possibly due to lack of means to evacuate, pure stubbornness, or possibly "wolf" had been cried far to many times. Now you blame the government for not coming to get you sooner, but yet you shoot at them when they try to save you. Is it just me or does this not make any sense? Had this whole hurricane blown over and been nothing you would have blamed the news media for being incorrect about the severity of the circumstances. How about the fact that you live 6' below sea level, does that factor in to the choice to choose where you live at all? I recall a national geographic article I read a few years back depicting the exact circumstances that have transpired.
This whole ordeal has been a tragic and devastating one. Do we really need to react by pointing fingers, fighting, and hurting the ones around us? I cannot even begin to fathom the lose these people have endured. I feel so ashamed for those who have turned this horrific event into something worse.

Fatima's First Secret
The First Secret of Fatima:
She [Our Lady of Fatima] opened Her hands once more, as She had done during the two previous months. The rays of light seemed to penetrate the earth, and we saw as it were a sea of fire. Plunged in this fire were demons and souls [of the damned] in human form, like transparent burning embers, all blackened or burnished bronze, floating about in the conflagration, now raised into the air by the flames that issued from within themselves together with great clouds of smoke, now falling back on every side like sparks in huge fires, without weight or equilibrium, amid shrieks and groans of pain and despair, which horrified us and made us tremble with fear. (It must have been this sight which caused me to cry out, as people say they heard me). The demons could be distinguished [from the souls of the damned] by their terrifying and repellent likeness to frightful and unknown animals, black and transparent like burning coals.1 This vision lasted but an instant. How can we ever be grateful enough to our kind heavenly Mother, Who had already prepared us by promising, in the first apparition, to take us to Heaven. Otherwise, I think we would have died of fear and terror.2
Our Lady then explained to the children, "You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go."

With dedication and commitment, CK Hutchison has the responsibility to make the community a better place for everyone which will also provide long-lasting benefits to our stakeholders. In 2017 the Group's approach in community activities focus in youth empowerment, relief for the needy and environmental conservation. The Group is proud to report that the community activities arranged by the CK Hutchison Volunteer Team has contributed 11,800 service hours and positively impacted over 99,200 service recipients.
Empowering the Youth
Hutchison Ports of the Ports business supports education through its "Hutchison Ports Dock School Programme". This programme aims to provide more opportunities for younger generations by supporting the improvement of education facilities.
In May, 3 Ireland employees fully funded a six-week online community development programme for young adults who are interested in gaining skills in digital literary, social action and youth leadership. Being aware of how many young people feel marginalised, 3 Demark lent its support to Turning Tables, an NGO that works to empower marginalised youth by providing them with the means to express their grievances, hopes and dreams in music and film. Turning Tables built a creative environment for the youth to learn new skills and share experience, and hoping to give them an opportunity to pursue a better future.
ASW contributes to the growth and development of young athletes in Hong Kong. It organises annual challenges for junior athletes at the Watsons Athletic Club ("WAC"). The WAC Annual Challenge had over 2,300 outstanding junior athletes participating
Supporting those in Need
Disaster Relief
The U.S. and the Caribbean have been hit by large scale storms and hurricane in 2017, CK Hutchison strives to provide timely relief for those who were embroiled in disasters. For superstorm Hurricane Irma in particular, in just a few hours, 3 Group had updated all our channels, opened more networks to provide better coverage and sent SMS to customers roaming in the Caribbean assuring that all the costs associated with contacting loved ones would be reimbursed. 3 UK has also been exploring the support it could offer to communities in the UK during similar large scale disasters, including providing donated handsets, chargers and loaning charging stations to key community groups and emergency services.
Serving the Community
About one in three senior citizens in Hong Kong is living in poverty and one in four deprived children does not have three meals a day. To help alleviate hunger among the needy, and as part of the Retail division's efforts to achieve UN Sustainable Development Goal No. 12, PARKnSHOP donates edible surplus food to the local social enterprise Food Angel. In addition, PARKnSHOP Hong Kong has been organising the City Food Drive prorgamme which helps Food Angel collect grocery food items and funds from the public. Its partnership with Food Angel was awarded the Certificate of Merit in the "Outstanding Partnership Project Award 2016/17" organised by the Hong Kong Council of Social Service.
As of 2017, the programme helped raise more than 182,000 food items for Food Angel. When food items and cash donations combined, it has, to date, raised more than HK$4.7 million to help Food Angel prepare hundreds of thousands of hot meal boxes for needy Hong Kong residents.
And such empathy was echoed by CK Hutchison's employees in Korea. For two days in May, 20 employees from Hutchison Ports Busan volunteered as canteen staff at Dong-gu Elderly Welfare Center and Jaseong-dae Elderly Welfare Center to offer meals for the 830 residents there, as part of "2017 Hutchison Ports Busan Volunteering Days Programme" organised by the company's Community Caring Group.
The volunteer group has been supporting the needy citizens with rice donations and house maintenance service for more than 13 years on a monthly basis. The Volunteering Days Programme was initiated in 2014 to carry out more community activities.
Park'N Fly of CK Infrastructure visited and gave away snack bags to 650 families with children suffering from serious illness.
Globally, the Retail division ASW has multiplied its CSR activities up to 400 in 2017, counting 27,000 volunteers serving over 180,000 people in more than 97,000 hours. In 2017 alone, the Retail group donated 278 tonnes of edible surplus food which helped produce 832,000 meals to the needy.
Bridging the Digital Divide
Continuing the mission to narrow the digital divide not just for the crisis-affected refugees or displaced people, last year, CK Hutchison extended efforts to the underprivileged and those who feel they have been left out by the society.
The Telecommunications division thought of many creative ways to bridge this gap and serve the community. Following an internal pilot at 3 UK in 2016, at the beginning of 2017, the campaign, Reconnected, was launched externally as part of its #makeitright campaign. The initiative works with a number of charities to donate the old handsets from customers to the less advantaged people all over the UK, and offering them three months of free network use.

Australian Mist
Australian Mist
The Australian Mist was first known as the Spotted Mist, when it was developed as a breed of cat in Australia. This breed was developed by Dr. Truda Straede in Australia commencing in 1976, hence its name.
The breed came from crossing the Burmese, Abyssinian, and miscellaneous domestic short-haired cats to create a short-haired cat with a spotted coat. The name was changed from "Spotted Mist" to "Australian Mist" in 1998, when cats with marbled coats, rather than spots, were accepted as part of the breed.
