Oidhirp airson airgead a thogail airson Eaglais Naoimh Chonain (25/11/2013)
[Iain MacIlleathain - Preseantair] Nise, thòisich oidhirp air airgead a thogail airson na h-eaglaise ann am baile Loch Obha, an Earra-Ghàidheal, a ghleidheadh. Ged nach eil ceud bliadhna ann bho chaidh a togail, tha i an-diugh ann an droch staid. Air an deireadh sheachdain, bha taisbeanadh aca 's iad a' feuchainn ri airgead a thogail airson na h-obrach. Chaidh am fear-naidheachd againne, Andreas Wolff ann.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] Tha eaglais mhòr suidhichte ann am baile beag, Loch Obha. Thogar an Eaglais Naoimh Chonain le Walter Caimbeul, am bràthair a b' òige don chiad Mhorair Blythswood. Cheannaich e Innis Chonain ann an Loch Obha agus chaidh e a dh'fhuireach an sin le a mhàthair.
[Am Brigadier Iain MacPhàrlain] Bhiodh iad a' dol don eaglais ann an Clachan an Dìseirt, no Dail Mhàilidh mar a th' aca air a-nis, a h-uile Didòmhnaich. Tha e coltach gun robh iad a' dol, a dh'aona cuid air an rathad, 's cha robh an rathad ro mhath. Cha robh seo a' còrdadh ris a' chaillich idir, agus thuirt a mac rithe "ma-tà, chan eil e a' còrdadh riut. Togaidh mise eaglais air do shon."
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] Tha Eaglais Naoimh Chonain ann an droch staid agus i feumach air càradh. Thathar a' tomhais gu bheil i feumach air còrr is millean not. Ged a tha iad an dùil gu bheil iad a' faotainn maoineachadh, tha iad cuideachd airson 's gun cuir daoine taic riutha.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] Chunnaic na bha an làthair air an deireadh-sheachdain taisbeanadh mu eachdraidh na h-Eaglaise air an deach crìoch a chur ann an naoi ceud deug agus trìthead. Thathar airson buidheann de charaidean a stèidheachadh air a son.
[David Hodge] Anybody can provide help in the form of labour, time, money or just information, historical, archiving. It becomes easier to keep going if you know people are genuinely interested.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] Tha an togalach làn de dh'eachdraidh na sgìre agus chan eil e a' buintinn do dh'Eaglais sam bith.
[Am Brigadier Iain MacPhàrlain] Ann an dòigh, tha e nas fheàrr dh'fhaodadh nach eil iad ceangailte ri Eaglais sam bith. Tha saorsa aca, nì a dhèanamh an seo nas urrainn dhaibh, tha fhios agad, agus tha fhios agam fhèin, tha am fuaimneachadh a-staigh an seo cho math agus 's e àite math a bhiodh ann 'son ceòl a bhiodh ann.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] Tha ìomhaigh de Raibeart am Bruiseach ri fhaicinn san eaglais cuideachd agus cnàimh dheth air a thiodhlacadh an sin. Thathar an dòchas gum biodh sin na chuideachadh le bhith a' trusadh airgead.
[David Hodge] The first grants application we expect to hear from them in the middle of December. If it was successful, we would hope to start the work in the spring, because it is exterior work, therefore requiring the weather, and once that's started we would be able to put together the next applications so that the next stage, if successful, could start immediately after.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] Tha planaichean aca cuideachd gus ionad fiosrachaidh agus cafaidh a thogail ann an togalach ri taobh na h-Eaglaise. Andreas Wolff, BBC An Là, Loch Obha.
Campaign to raise money for St Conan's Church
[Iain MacLean - Presenter] Now, a campaign has begun to raise money to save a church in the town of Loch Awe, Argyll. Although not 100 years old have passed since it was built, it is in a bad state. At the weekend, there was an event to try and raise money for the work. Our reporter, Andreas Wolff went.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] There is a big church in a small town, Loch Awe. St Conan's Kirk was built by Walter Campbell, the younger brother of the first Lord Blythswood. He bought Innischonan in Loch Awe and he went to stay there with his mother.
[Brigadier Iain MacFarlane] They would go to church in Dalmally, or Dalmally as they call it today, every Sunday. It would appear that they would go with the masses on the road, but the road was not too good. This did not agree with the old lady, and her son said to her "Well, if you don't like it, I'll build you another church."
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] St Conan's Kirk is in a bad state and she needs fixed. They estimate that she will need more than a million pounds. Although they expect that they will receive funding, they also want people to help them.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] Those who attended the event saw the history of the Kirk that was finished in 1930. They want to set up a group of friends for the church.
[David Hodge] Anybody can provide help in the form of labour, time, money or just information, historical, archiving. It becomes easier to keep going if you know people are genuinely interested.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] The building was full of history of the area and it is not affiliated to any one church.
[Am Brigadier Iain MacPhàrlain] In a way, it is nicer that it is not linked to any religion. They have a freedom, they can do what they want, you know and I know myself, the acoustics in here are so good, it would be a good place for music.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] There is a statue of Robert the Bruce in the church and a bone of his has been buried there. There is hope that this will be a help in raising money.
[David Hodge] The first grants application we expect to hear from them in the middle of December. If it was successful, we would hope to start the work in the spring; because it is exterior work, therefore requiring the weather, and once that's started we would be able to put together the next applications so that the next stage, if successful, could start immediately after.
[Andreas Wolff – Neach-aithris] They also have plans for an information centre and to build a café beside the church. Andreas Wolff, BBC An Là, Loch Awe.

…getting to know all about you…! It's been a lovely start to the term with the children showing their parents around the new nursery space. We welcomed Oscar and Francis, who have both begun to feel confident enough to start sharing their passions. Francis dreams of rewriting history for King Harold II to have won at Battle whilst Oscar's creative imagination was clear to see when he transformed the tree trunk into an ice-cream stall! Extending the scenic view, Mishkalah described how 'the large playground is the sea and the slope is the beach'. Serving up a variety of delicious flavours of ice cream even seemed to entice the sun to shine!
On Thursday morning, Mandy (Head) popped in and happened to mention that when she went to University making a toy tiger had really helped her. When Obi joined us for his first day later that morning he was also drawn to a toy tiger, moving it around the room until it even joined us for snacks. I have a feeling we might read 'The Tiger who Came to Tea' next week!

Wide angle shooters often cringe when they learn the pitfalls of APC-S sensors and the dreaded "crop factor".
But with lenses like the Canon 10-18mm photographers have some hope. Recently a Chinese lens manufacturer threw it's hat in the ring with a wide angle macro lens. The Lens is a 15mm fixed F4 and can photograph subjects within 12 cm, and is averrable for Canon, Nikon, Sony & Pentax cameras. Check out more info at DPreview and Venus' website:

My fancy was seriously tickled this week when I stumbled upon the SweetSeat. Each one is handmade from child-safe, food-friendly laminated cotton making it easy to clean. It's portable so you can take it with you when you're on the move. However, the coolest feature is the supreme cuteness of the Aqua and Cherry Red Polka Dots!
You'll find SweetSeat online, available in a range of colours and patterns. The SweetSeat is made in San Antonio, TX but international shipping is available.

Caroline Bragg, Head PT for &Breathe explains how mums can tackle the post-pregnancy ab separation known as Diastasis Recti
Diastasis Recti is quite a mouthful, and is commonly referred to as DR. A dome shape around your belly is a clear sign of it and it happens as your vertical 'six-pack' abs (the rectus abdominus) weakens during pregnancy, as the baby grows bigger. It is a natural occurrence, and is linked to how strong your abs, including the side tummy muscles (obliques), were before your pregnancy. It can also depend on how you carry the baby and how big it is.
Most women I see are unaware of DR and/or do not know what the implications are. There is a big grey area around the subject, which is sometimes made worse by also social media and a lot of un-qualified advice. First and foremost mums should know that DR is not a sign of you doing anything wrong. It's totally natural for most women to have some form of it after childbirth. All in all, it simply means that certain movements should be avoided to allow the body to recover and heal naturally.
How to test for DR, and when to ask for help.
A finger test from a GP, physiotherapist or your trained fitness professional is the best way of determining whether or not you have DR. Most women aren't offered it by their GP, or don't know to ask! A well-trained pre- and post-natal physical trainer can check for you, and a more in-depth test can also be carried out by a women's health physiotherapist. It can be difficult to test yourself, unless you are experienced already, and your abs will be weakened post-pregnancy so it's tricky to flex and measure at the same time. So don't worry if you can't figure it - don't be afraid to reach out for help with this one!
When the rectus abdominus separates and the linea alba (the tendon between the RA muscles) stretches, there is a gap. It's important that these muscles are not overworked before the gap has healed. If you don't tackle, it a permanent bulge may occur, as your muscles can't adapt to the shape they had pre-pregnancy. The problems caused by DR go a lot deeper than this though. With a deep or large gap between your rectus abdominus, it is unsafe to return to high impact exercise (such as running or HIIT training) since your core is significantly weakened. Remember that all parts of our body work together and the core group of muscles are like a corset around your middle. Though your rectus abdominus might seem superficial, they play a big part in keeping you upright. Imagine a corset not being done up properly: if your RA aren't working properly, the rest of the core and pelvic floor can't function effectively.
As well as the width of gap, it is important to assess the depth or tension. The gap may be wider at certain parts of the belly and may not close completely, but as long as there is tension of the deep TVA muscles and the gap is shallow, working-out with a 1-2 finger gap is generally non-detrimental. Our bodies are like jigsaw puzzles, however - your diastasis may have completely healed, but you might still be experiencing leakage or lower back pain. That's when a women's health specialist physiotherapist, like our own resident expert, Amanda Savage, can help make your life better.
What exercise can I do and what should I avoid?
If you have DR, it is best to avoid any exercises which involve forward flexion: sit ups and crunches, as well as things like sitting up in bed (roll to one side to get up instead). Bending to tie your shoe laces is also a no-no: elevate your foot on a step instead). These exercises build up your RA before the gap is closed, but won't allow the muscles to come back together. High impact exercise is also off-limits. You need to wait for your core and pelvic floor to strengthen, before launching into any high intensity workout. Remember that even if you had an emergency C section, you probably did a lot of pushing before the surgery. Taking the time to rehabilitate your core and pelvic floor will mean you will have a much better recovery overall, after which you can get back to your full exercise regime!
Diaphragmatic breathing is a key exercise to help recover from DR, as it works with your pelvic floor and inner core. Activating the pelvic floor correctly is also very important: check with your qualified PT, any &Breathe ambassador or your physio that you are doing it right, as most of us are not! Once you're nailing your PF exercises, integrate them naturally with everyday exercises like squats and lunges. Think of exercising as a way to make you fitter for life, as looking after a baby is physically demanding! There are plenty of postnatal exercise classes out there and your teacher should be giving you the correct exercises for your postnatal phase.
When can I return to training?
There's no textbook answer in terms of when you should return to exercise after DR. It completely depends on the person and everybody's recovery is different. I certainly recommend working on your deeper core muscles first through gentle rehabilitation. Feeding your body with the right nutrients and antioxidants is also key to healing your body. Above all, be kind to yourself, you have just been through the challenge of childbirth.

If you are someone who has spent any amount of time in the realm of digital content creation, then you're already pretty familiar with the Wix brand. Over the last decade or so, the Wix Website maker has been helping people create their own unique websites with the help of a few clicks.
Over the last year or so, they have expanded their portfolio adding some more powerful tools to the mix- the latest of them being the Wix Logo Maker.
Now as someone who frequently dabbles in website creation, I am very aware of the pains of getting a suitable logo for a new website. From sitting down with a designer to flesh out a concept to the final execution of the finished logo- its a long tedious process that often costs a lot of money.
So that's why I jumped at the opportunity to try Wix's logo maker out- and here's my experience with it!
Wix Logo Maker: A Comprehensive Review
Now one of the best things that I liked about the Wix Logo Maker is how they broke down the entire process of creating a Logo into 4 simple steps. For me, it was one of the biggest selling points for the Wix Logo Maker- after all any product that can make the life of a web designer less cluttered and messy is a huge deal.
With that said, let's jump right into part 1.
1. Creating a Basic Template For Your Logo
First up we need to fill in some basic information about our company. Wix also lets you add a tagline with the name- if you have a popular jingle or motto that everyone recognises you by, then this is a great place to put it in!
Next up we get to choose the niche we are in. For the purposes of this review, I went ahead and dreamt up a fictional Content Writing Agency called the Aurora Writing Guild.
Every logo design tells a story, about the ethos of the company and how you'd like the world to recognise you. This is very important as having an online personality is a key component in building up a brand image. With a few select word choices, Wix lets you do just that!
2. Getting To Know Your Personal Preferences
Now this is where the Wix Logo Maker really begins to showcase it's magic. Using their proprietary learning algorithm along with their years in developing websites, Wix lets you choose from a set of popular logos in order to find out your unique choices when it comes to design and colours.
At the end of this step, I was presented with a bunch of options and I was pleasantly surprised to see how many of these logos were in line with my vision of what the logo for Aurora Writers Guild should look like!
3. Fine Tuning the Details of Your Logo
Now this is the stage for granular fine tuning. You can do a wide variety of changes, from changing the font and the colour pallette to controlling the opacity of the icons and shapes on display.
What impressed me the most though was the flexibility that Wix offers with their logo maker. At any stage, you can go back and choose a different design and work based on that. The entire process is very intuitive and it was hardly half an hour before I had tweaked my very own logo to perfection.
4. Downloading Your Logo
Now I know some of you guys are pretty confused by this image. I mean wasn't the Wix Logo Maker supposed to be free? Well it actually is! You can download a free sample of your logo and use it for all your needs.
The only caveat thought is that you are restricted to a lower resolution image which doesn't really scale well on a professional looking website or even a business card. That's why Wix offers 3 tiered plans that you can see in the picture above!
Let me quickly run you through these plans:
- Basic Plan: (Cost: 12$) This is ideal if you're perfectly happy with your created logo and have no desire to modify or change it anyway. You can download the files for the logo and use it as you please.
- Professional Plan: (Cost: 50$) The professional plan offers you a much wider range of flexibility with the vector files and social media kit making sure that you are ready to make a splash across the Internet with your brand identity!
- Professional Logo and Website Plan: (Cost: 100$) If you want the complete package of a logo along with a website and Wix's industry leading customer service all in one click- then this is the plan for you. The 168$ promo code for creating your website is just the icing on the cake.
Overall if you take my advice, I'd say that the professional plan is the best deal which gives you all the vector files as well as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and other social media optimised logo images which can be just the kickstart needed for your company.
Why Wix Logo Maker Over Other Alternatives:
Logo makers out there are a dime a dozen! And with services like Fiverr popping up all over the place, there are a few options that might even give you a customisable logo for a price that is lower than Wix. So why do I still prefer to stick with WIx?
Well there are quite a few reasons behind my decision and for the sake of brevity, I'll highlight the 5 salient ones in the bullet points down below:
- Unlimited Revisions: A logo like any piece of art needs to go through several iterations before you can finally decide on one that reflects your company's outlook. This is a tiring process and a particularly expensive one especially if you decide to hire a dedicated graphic designer.
- Unleash Your Creativity: Whenever we commission a logo or something of that nature, we always have a creative design in our mind that we seek to implement. However due to various reasons like lack of a particular skill set as well as time constraints, we are more often than not forced to hand it over to someone else. Wix Logo Creator let's you take back control and unleash the inner artist in you.
- Get Inspired: Every great idea starts off as a solitary thought which after hours of pondering and conversation snowballs into something amazing. The creation of a logo is something very similar-it begins with a concept but more often than not, the exact details are a bit fuzzy, especially in the visualization stage of things! The awesome thing about Wix is that they have a great selection of pre existing logos which you can draw inspiration from!
- Ease of Use: Now most of us are creatures of habit and fnd a lot of comfort in sticking to what we have used for ages and are comfortable with. Now, unless you are a professional digital artist, chances are you have never really delved into Photoshop. And while there is no doubt that the Adobe creative suite is incredibly powerful, the learning curve for them is also pretty steep. Wix on the other hand provides a simple drag and drop tool that anyone who is used to building websites is comfortable with.
- A Complete Package: This in my book, is the most compelling reason to get Wix Logo Maker. It provides you guys with the entire deal which is a great boon toi anyone just starting out in the web building industry. With someone like Wix, you get the complete website building tools along with awesome customer support!
In the cut throat world of SEO, having great content is no longer just the only criteria. You need to have a catchy logo as well as a fast and responsive site to go along with it. You can get all of that and a whole lot more when you choose Wix Web Development tools. In fact if you opt t go for the Professional Logo package you get the Logo in various high resolutions along with a social media kit which can help jump start your website and bring in a host of social signals to your online presence.
Wix Logo Maker: It's Awesome, And it's FREE
Creating a comprehensive online brand image is hard, Wix Logo Maker makes sure that you can take the best foot forward as you start on that journey. My experience with was overwhelmingly positive and if anyone of you is looking for a free logo maker for your new website or venture, I'd highly recommend giving Wix a try!
After all, the logo is the first thing a new visitor and potential customer looks at while visiting your website and as the age old adage goes-
"Make your first impression a lasting one!"
Wix Logo Maker enables you to do just that! So what are you waiting for, go get your brand the online presence they deserve and empower it to new heights with a professional logo!

12 Hours in Atlanta
After work on Friday I drove up to Atlanta from Ft. Benning to meet an old friend while she's doing her internship at a consulting company as part of her Wharton School MBA program (yes, my friends are smarter than your friends). I ended up having about 12 total hours between Friday night and Saturday that I spent in Atlanta, not including sleeping, and what follows is an account of my stay. This is by no means an Atlanta bucket list post, but rather a list of fun places to check out if you only have a few hours in A-town.
Located in Westside is the Westside Provisions District. I highly recommend checking out this trendy hotspot to indulge in boutique shopping and amazing food! Clearly it's located in the Westside of Atlanta, and if you're coming from the Ft. Benning/Columbus area on a Friday night, you can expect some light traffic. I arrived right at 8 pm (2000 for my military homies) and was able to find some decent parking. Luckily this area has lots of free parking, which is kinda hard to find in Atlanta (another great reason to check it out if you only have a few hours).
First things first, margaritas. I know you thought I was going to go all Iggy Azalea on you. Sorry I let you down. And if you didn't get that joke then blame it on my poor delivery and affection for horrible music. My friend (let's call her Shmegs), met me at Taqueria Del Sol.
By 8 pm, the line at Taqueria Del Sol was already out the door and down the sidewalk, but when Shmegs tells me it's worth the wait, I just keep my eye on the prize. A 45 min wait is made totally acceptable with a few margs in hand. While one of you keeps your place in line, the other needs to head inside to the bar and snag some margaritas. No issue with bringing these outside to sip on in line. And oh my lanta were they good! Ok, now for the food. Order what you want, I'm not going to stop you. But if you don't order at least 3 of their tacos I'm going to find out where you live and let my dog take a dump on your porch. His name is Gus, and he is an equal opportunity porch pooper. I recommend the Carnita, Fish, and Memphis tacos.
After ordering another round of margaritas, we caught up for an hour or so before realizing our butts were numb and decided to walk around the complex. Take your pick of bars, restaurants and sweet shops to walk into. We grabbed a glass of wine at JCT Kitchen & Bar on their second floor where they had live music. Talk about a great outdoor seating area! After we couldn't hear our own voices because of the crowd we called it a night.
Old Fourth Ward
Since we went to bed around midnight, we got up late and then headed over to Old Fourth Ward, which is South East and across I-85 from where we were the night before. Considered another hotspot to the locals, Old Fourth Ward is rich in history, but is also being re-energized by developers who like turning abandoned brick industrial buildings into trendy/modern "markets." Shmegs and I visited one such area called Ponce City Market.
Nestled between Virginia Highlands and Old Fourth Ward, Ponce City Market is a magical multi-level place with enough options to make your head spin. The building is the old Sears, Roebuck and Company factory and as you walk around the shops, the old factory machines are on display. There's also a nice rooftop scene from what we hear (putt-putt golf, rooftop bar, and a great view of Atlanta), but you have to pay $10 to go up and everything is priced separately on the top, so we decided to skip it.
The Beltline, an improved running/multi-use trail that basically goes around the core of Atlanta, sits right against Ponce City Market. Ride your bike there and lock it up in the tunnel before heading into the market for some chow.
Shmegs and I skipped breakfast, but decided to stop at Hop's Chicken to split a chicken biscuit (get the fram fram sauce!) so that we wouldn't have to shop on an empty stomach. Check out Shmegs' hands all over my side of the chicken biscuit. She may be smart but she's got no manners. Burping and swearing at the table like a sailor too. Get your life together Shmegs.
After visiting several boutiques and swiping our way through some of our favorite clothing stores, it was time for lunch. You literally (and by that I mean figuratively) cannot go wrong when picking a restaurant here. We went with Indian food because both of our husbands aren't big fans of Indian food and we figured we'd live out our wildest fantasies without them dragging us down. Wild, right?!
So, as far as Indian food goes, Ponce City Market is home to Botiwalla, which specializes in Indian street food. Shmegs and I both ordered the Paneer Tikka Roll because we LOVE paneer cheese. If you haven't tried it, you should order it whenever possible. Anyways, it was heaven wrapped in a buttered naan. Wash it down with a Mango Lassi.
You could spend hours walking around Ponce City Market, and in the cooler months you can walk over to Krog Street Market via the Beltline, which is about 1.5 miles away. Or drive. No judgement. Anyways, I enjoyed my 12 hours in Atlanta, but I am well aware that I barely scratched the surface of everything this city has to offer. And even though I went for an overnight trip, it is totally possible to do what I did as a daytrip from Ft. Benning. Head up in the morning, check out Ponce City, hit up the Westside, and head home. I'd like to thank Shmegs for letting me stay at her place and for showing me a good time. You're a pretty solid gal.

Suge Knight Sues Chris Brown, Pia Mia, & 1Oak Nightclub In Relation To 2014 Club Shooting
On Monday, the Associated Press reported rapper Suge Knight is suing Chris Brown in a suit related to the 2014 club shooting that resulted in Knight getting shot seven times at a party hosted by Brown. According to the lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, Knight claims Brown, 1Oak, and singer Pia Mia (who co-hosted the party with Brown) provided inadequate security, which allegedly allowed at least one armed individual into the club during the party. Knight survived gunshot wounds to the abdomen, chest, and left forearm, but the AP reports the former rap mogul allegedly has suffered complications from the injuries, including a blood clot. Bustle has reached out to Brown, Pia Mia, and 1Oak's reps for comment, but did not receive an immediate response.
"As a result of the negligence of the defendants, one or more unknown individuals were allowed access to the event with weapons, including firearms," the lawsuit claims (via the AP). "As a foreseeable result, gunshots were fired by those admitted into the event and (Knight) was shot and seriously injured."
Per the AP, the lawsuit claims 1Oak needed to take special security precautions, because Brown allegedly has a "well-documented track record of hosting events and/or parties in which violence frequently erupted." It's unclear how much Knight is seeking financially, but the AP reports a judgment has been requested ordering Brown, Mia, and 1Oak to pay past and future medical expenses for his injuries.
Knight's attorneys, J. Tooson and Jeremy Lessem, also allege the shooting left Knight fearful, which in turn allegedly played a part in the fatal hit and run Knight was arrested for in January 2015. He allegedly ran over two men with his car and killed one of them. At the time of the events, Knight's lawyer, James Blatt, claimed to KABC that the rapper was "attacked by two people" before the crash occurred. According to Tooson and Lessem, the 2014 shooting caused Knight to fear for his life, which is allegedly why he ran from the 2015 accident scene. He eventually turned himself into the Los Angeles Police Department.
"Mr. Knight was still extremely frail from his gunshot injuries less than five months earlier," Tooson claimed in a statement. "When the facts are finally revealed in this case, we're certain it will be apparent that our client was simply trying to flee for his life."
Regarding the 2015 hit and run, Knight is currently awaiting trial with his bail set at $25 million.

Balancing between heritage, modernity and being relevant in today's market Guy Bove, Breitling's Creative Director, shares the story of the Navitmer 8.
When designing, how challenging is it to stay true to your heritage and remain modern and appealing?
It is challenging. One of the things I've noticed with Breitling is how proprietary people feel about the brand. We have a lot of collectors who really love the brand so they are expecting a lot. We have a lot of customers who see a different side of the brand and they've seen cool things that have been happening over the last decades with aviation, so to bring everything together and keep it exciting and keep the heritage intact is tricky.
Tell me about the development of Navitimer 8?
The first phase was easy as we had an action plan on the wall and they told me to look at cockpit clocks from 1930's and put it on the wrist. But to go from that to a wristwatch, that's where a lot of work came in.
We knew that you'd be launching a ladies line by the coming fall. What do you consider when developing a women's watch while the perception of Breitling is a masculine brand?
My feeling is that it's more than a masculine brand, it's a brand that's known for tool watches and the women who wear Breitling today wear strong watches. They're not dainty. The watch has to have a character and we had very cool women wear watches in the past so my idea was for them to be still recognisably Breitling and not trying to cross over to another brand but at the same time, for strong femininity to come through.
With Basel coming up, what is the message we will see?
You will see the work we've been doing on the brand image and of course the main novelty is the Navitimer 8. We are also working on facelifts of other products. You will see a coherent design language, which is very clean, working on colour schemes that will be interesting for today's market.
What is more challenging, to facelift a product or create a new one?
It's the same. It doesn't matter how many steps there are to the final product, the proof is in the pudding.
How many sketches did you do for the Navitimer 8?
Not many. I don't do a lot of sketches, I work on the computer a lot just so I can build up a watch around the wrist and fit around the movement, to get the size of dial I want and work on small the details. Sketching is great, but to transfer that onto the metal, I'd rather start directly on the metal. I do a few sketches to show our CEO Georges Kern, a couple of sketches of the dial, but bear in mind we are starting with a dial heavily inspired by a cockpit chronograph so it's about applying that and building a watch around it. The Dial is very close to the original, the case took a bit of work but I knew where I was going. It's made a little bit more tough, as flying a plane in those days was a bit more dangerous so I'm thinking action heroes before there were action heroes. There is a lot of work to keep the genes that work for the future and takes you back to the past.
What is the most challenging part of your job?
I don't only work on the products; I'm a Creative Director across the board so it's keeping everything aligned so you feel the vision. It's coherent in what you see in the catalogue and what you see here, it is all one brand.
What's an element that's not there that you'd like to see at Breitling?
For it all to become coherent but also that people find the brand relevant for today and that today we manage to make people aware of the whole history behind the brand, which is massive. There are so many inventions; the products are really cool, so I think if we can get all that across I'll be very happy with what we've done.
What's on your wrist now and why?
I'm one of those people who don't wear a watch. At one point I realized the watch I was wearing was sort of the benchmark of what I was designing everyday and I didn't want that to be the case. I also got used to not wearing one.
Which is your favourite from the Breitling collection?
I think the coolest watch is the 1950's Super Ocean. The original one really stands out.
Are you exploring more strap options for the Navitimer 8?
We are working on some cool straps for people who like to change.
When you're designing, where does it start?
It has to look like a Breitling. The most important thing for me is to create in my mind a mood board. Who is the person who will be interested in this watch? What's his life like?
How would you describe Breitling in three words?
Strong, technical and cool and if can use four – exciting.

- Calvin Powers, Producer, IBM developerWorks TV
Renewable energy projects are taking off around the world, and many fundamentally require a way to record a ledger of activities and transactions between the varied participants – e.g. residential customers wishing to sell excess generated renewable energy back to the grid, regulators seeking to monitor and maintain energy quality, and local utilities interested in aggregating customers into 'virtual power plants'.
Based on a real project that is currently underway, this week's session will feature an interactive demo designed to immerse participants in the world of energy trading with Blockchain, and introduce a future in which energy can power a dynamic marketplace for turning megawatts into megabucks (or virtually anything else!).

How To Achieve Your Goals Every Single Time/
Photo by Jordan Wozniak on Unsplash
Ok. Maybe not EVERY time because we are imperfect and sometimes life just happens. BUT you can be way more successful than you've been in the past.
Y'all. I get it. A brand spankin, shiny new year rolls around and you feel so fresh stepping into it. A fresh start is ALWAYS a nice start. All your pals are making these grandiose resolutions and you've often done it yourself. But when you REALLY reflect, you think "dang, I sucked at keeping my resolutions last year." But this year does NOT have to be a repeat of last year, and the year before that, and the one before that….
But here's the truth. MOST people, as in 90% will FAIL at their New Year's resolutions. Why? Because habits are hard to change. It takes WORK to change bad or unproductive habits and in most cases, people are setting resolutions the wrong way. But it IS possible. You CAN change. You CAN do the things that you are called and created to do.
So yes, I know that it is not January 1. It's nearly February, but there is nothing magical about setting goals on the first of the year. In fact, it may be even more beneficial to re-examine and set goals the right way NOW.
Here is a list of our top tips to help you achieve your goals. We've listened to and read quite a bit on the subject, and these are our favs, the tried and true ones that have worked for us.
Nothing about this year will change unless you change your habits.
1. Find out what God would have you focusing on and working on in THIS season.
We need God's perspective. Desperately. Fortunately for us, we serve a God who longs to speak and be heard by us. God wants to talk to you even more than you want to hear Him. Take some time to quiet your heart. Turn on some great worship music and sing your heart out (tone deaf or not). ASK God to talk to you about what goals you should be working towards. ASK Him to speak His destiny over your life.
Quick tip: if what you are hearing does not bring peace and agree with God's Word (the Bible) it's not from God. I promise you that God is NOT telling you to go cuss people out, steal stuff, or max out ALL the credit cards that you can get because the world is ending tomorrow. Promise.
If you haven't yet, check out this article Before You Make Resolutions to help you figure out what God goals you should be focusing on.

2. Grab yourself a pen and some paper and just start writing the dreams that come to mind.
Don't worry about organizing them for now. Just start writing them down. No order, no priority, just get them out of your dome onto paper. Seriously, doing this alone puts you WAY ahead of most people. They can be as big or small as you want, just WRITE THEM DOWN."
Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.
Habakkuk 2:2 NKJV
3. Now, look at those dreams and figure out a way to make them fit the S.M.A.R.T method.
Good goals MUST be specific. Instead of saying things like I want to "be a better mom, lose weight, grow closer to God, read more, go on a trip…" Write down SPECIFIC things like "loose 25lbs, spend 2 hours with my kids where my phone is in the other room so I'm not distracted; read my bible 5 times per week and pray every day, read 5 personal development books and 5 novels this year…"
Vague goals produce vague results... if any.
You can't track progress if you can't measure it. You can measure a specific number of pounds lost, how much time you spend per day on a certain activity, or how many trips you take. Being able to track progress means that you can adjust your efforts on a weekly or monthly basis to make sure you hit your goal.
Action Oriented:
What steps will you take to achieve your goal? Wanna lose 25 pounds? How many days per week are you going to work out? Wanna manage your finances better? What plan will you put in place to make sure that happens? An action-oriented goal will set you up for success.
Know thyself.
If you are a go big or go home personality then you can set goals differently than the slow change kind of peeps. If you've lived on nothing but ramen noodles and little smokies for the last 3 years, I wouldn't recommend turning full on Paleo with no sugar overnight. If you only read your Bible twice all year in 2017, don't set a goal to read it for 3 hours every day in 2018. Start with reading one chapter in Proverbs each day. Work up to your 3 hours per day goal. Set yourself up for success. It will propel you to keep setting goals and keep progressing.
Give your goals a deadline! Let's be honest, we are all our best housecleaning selves right before company comes over. Give your goals a deadline and watch how much more motivated you are!
4. Find scripture to back up your goals and add these to your written goals.
Not only is it good to get scripture before your eyes every day, but when we know that what we are working towards is in line with God's written word, it gives us even more confidence and moxie.
5. Make it VISUAL
NOW, take those goals that you have written out and put them somewhere you will see them EVERY SINGLE DAY. Every time you see them, thank God that He is helping you to accomplish them. You might even take the time to make them visually appealing so you enjoy looking at them.
6. Tell a pal who will help hold you accountable and keep you motivated.
No, don't count on your donut eating buddy to help you get fit and lose weight. Neither should you ask your sister who only goes to church twice a year to help you get your tush to church 3 out of every 4 Sundays a month. Find someone you can trust and have them check in on you from time to time. You might even ask them how you can help them achieve their own goals.
7. Schedule It Out
Schedule when you are going to DO THE THINGS that will help you achieve your goals. Want to lose 15 pounds by March 30? Ok, great, now schedule your 30 minutes of workout time five days a week. Want to read one self-development book per month. Awesome, now plan out 20 minutes of time to read every night. When you plan out when and where you will do the new behavior, you are more likely to succeed. Some folks call it "setting your intention." God calls it making a plan and counting the cost (Prov 16:9 and Luke 14:28).
Bottom line is this: You have God-given dreams FOR A REASON.
He creates each of us by Christ Jesus to join him in the work he does, the good work he has gotten ready for us to do, work we had better be doing.
Ephesians 2:10 Msg
Your God-given dreams are assignments to bring the Kingdom of Heaven to earth; it is time to pursue them as such.
Photo by Vittorio Zamboni on Unsplash
They are worth the work it takes to bring them to pass. Your destiny is worth fulfilling.
We would genuinely LOVE to hear from you. What are your goals? What is your biggest, craziest dream? The one that you used to be scared to say out loud?

The agitation on work-life antithesis will abide ad infinitum, but it's auspicious to agenda that women are award abiding to assignment afterwards a career breach easier as companies booty proactive accomplish to tap their talent.
Women's addition to India's GDP stands at 18 percent, one of the everyman in the world, absorption the actuality that abandoned 25 percent of India's labour force is female. Added than 70 percent of the abeyant GDP advance befalling comes from accretion women's accord in the labour force by 10 allotment points, according to McKinsey Global Institute's address appear in April this year, The ability of parity: Advancing women's adequation in Asia-Pacific.
According to the report, the India has one of the bigger opportunities in the apple to addition GDP by advancing women's adequation — $770 billion of added GDP by 2025 — but this would crave absolute change.
Corporates too accept now bigger accept the amount of bringing added women aback to the abode and apperceive that this will not abandoned accord to the country's GDP in the continued run but additionally advice their own assortment initiatives.
But how does one move from access to convenance – absolutely accepting women in the workplace? What can companies do to admission the cardinal of women in the workforce?
When women allocution about restarting their careers, avant-garde platforms like Reboot India, JobsForHer, and accumulated entities are listening.
JobsForHer followed up a analysis conducted above Bangalore, Delhi and Mumbai with over 2500 respondents, with a address titled, Time to Allocution – A Journey into What Women in India Want While Restarting Their Careers.
Fifty-seven percent of the women saw mentoring as acute to their restart, in the analysis on How Important is Mentoring To You?
Tina Vinod, Head of Assortment & Inclusion, ThoughtWorks, artistic technology consultants, says:
"Women are accountable to microaggressions at work, area accidental instances of abhorrence or alienation booty place. Added so for women who advantage adjustable alive styles or policies. Ours is still abundantly a affectionate association that deems a assertive affectionate of behaviour on women. There is still a continued way to go for women to breach moulds, or the bottle ceiling."
Hiring managers charge to let go of absolute biases that women tend to be absent by childcare responsibilities or cannot put in continued hours to accommodated a deadline. These accomplish the outcomes for the aptitude basin of women abiding to assignment beneath than favourable.
Taking all this into account, companies are alive on behavior that will advice women to acknowledgment to work, not feel out of place, and abound and rise. Some of the companies we batten to told us how they were adjustment absolute behavior or formulating new ones to accompany women aback to work.
However, it is important to highlight that what works for corporates doesn't necessarily assignment for startups.
Most often, startups with baby teams, budgets, and added assignment acquisition it difficult to administer afterwards an agent who has taken a maternology break.
Ishani Roy, Founder, Serein Inc,- a aggregation of scientists and sociologists who are amorous about alive bigger business outcomes through diversity.
She admits that the allowable six months of maternology leave deters some startups from hiring women of a accurate age/demographic.
"In case they do appoint on the base of merit, they do not discriminate (in agreement of projects etc.) aback those advisers appear aback to work. Startups are absolutely acceptable at pay disinterestedness so abiding women do not get penalised for the breach in their career as is generally the case in corporates. Again, one of the big challenges for a growing startup is award acceptable talent. Back startups are focused on accomplishment they can absolutely attending at abiding mothers as a abundant aptitude pool," Ishani says.
To allay some of the fears and answerability surrounding "return to work", companies are demography the accomplished work-life antithesis arrangement actual seriously.
Many accept launched programmes that accredit women to upskill afterwards accepting taken a breach and accommodate them with accessories that advice them administer their home situations as able-bodied as work. These accommodate flexi-timings, alien alive facilities, admission to healthcare, agriculture rooms, safer commutes, amid others.
PayPal's back-to-work programme, Recharge, is advised to advice women technologists in India jumpstart their acknowledgment to the abode with the aplomb and abilities that will accomplish them trailblazers in the industry.
"At the end of the programme, we aim to accord some of these women the befalling to assignment with us and body next-generation payments above roles such as software development engineer, software development analysis engineer, software development manager, absolution engineer, and accident analyst. This is afar from added women-specific initiatives to admission the cardinal of women in the organisation and the industry," says Jayanthi Vaidyanathan, Senior Director, HR, of online payments arrangement Paypal India.
If change is to happen, assignment cultures charge to be added across-the-board of women by abatement the re-entry process.
Tina talks about ThoughtWorks' Vapasi, a structured abstruse programme that gives women technologists "a belvedere to re-define their (post-break) career paths, affix and analyze with role models, barter experiences, and abutment anniversary added in acceptable alive associates of the tech community".
Richard Lobo, Head of HR and Executive Vice President at Infosys, talks of a two-pronged access – childcare abutment and abode abutment – to accomplish abode affiliation accessible for new mothers.
"Workplace abutment includes the Mom's Net basement that has become alike with abutment for assured and new mothers, alms them a accessory ambiance and basement to acknowledgment to assignment effectively," he says.
More recently, the aggregation launched #BackLikeABoss, a returnee internship programme. "The six-month internship above-mentioned to role fitment and hiring gives women the amplitude to analyze their interests and strengthen their competencies while alive on the job. The applicant will be shortlisted mainly based on the primary skillsets and years of experience. At the point aback we catechumen them into the roles of the company, we will chase the approved action of crabbed hiring," Lobo adds.
Similarly, the Intuit Again programme at Intuit India, a banking software company, provides an befalling for technologists to acknowledgment to assignment afterwards demography a breach in their career for caregiving purposes.
"Through this programme, we booty them through a six-month internship to clean abilities and confidence, enabling them to auspiciously acknowledgment to the workforce. Several women participants of this internship programme accept been offered full-time roles with Intuit. Today, 10 percent of the women hires at Intuit India are through the Intuit Again programme," says Saket Atal, Managing Director, Intuit India.
What becomes acute in the alteration book is for women to accept that motherhood or any blazon of caregiving is not a penalty. With abounding companies alms acknowledgment programmes, advance to new accomplishment sets has become easier.
But that abandoned is not abundant to accomplish the transition, says Mukta Sharma, Assistant Manager, Outreach Partnerships, NSRCEL, IIM-B. Mukta has taken abounding breach during her career, and JobsForHer helped her acquisition her accepted position.
"I assumption the challenges are added centralized than external. While alien boundaries are consistently defined, it's about whether you internalise those boundaries or anticipate beyond. I consistently anticipate of 'infinite possibilities'. The day I absitively to attending above the boundaries I had anticipation existed, the walls kept falling and I kept affective ahead. While one ability be a 'lone crusader', it's important that you actualize a abutment arrangement of ancestors and accompany who accept you as a being and advice you move ahead. Suggest the path/opportunities that exist, what and how you could administer in agreement of role, etc. You absolutely charge addition who believes in you and your capabilities. I accept been alive in breach for over a decade, so it was consistently 'what will I do next'?" Mukta says.
She adds that women should focus was on utilising their capabilities and skills, the areas of assignment they can explore, and their strengths. "We should see what amount and appulse we can actualize in any role/assignment that continues to body our believability to ensure one gets echo assignments from a company."
Jhanvi Chintakunta, a technologist with nine years experience, and on a three-year career breach had to say this about ThoughtWorks' Vapasi programme,
"I begin myself not decidedly able-bodied a with accepted technology, back my career break. I took up a few acceptance courses to break that problem, but the abridgement of hands-on acquaintance with the new tech became a botheration aback I would sit for interviews. Which is additionally why I was absolutely sceptical about accepting called for the Vapasi programme. But, I did and was afflicted and aflame because I absolutely accept the programme is a abundant amount add to my resume."

Lola was innocent once. Scarred in neither body nor soul she lived for beauty and truth until both were taken from her by men who are remembered now only by the worms that wreath their bones. So now she rides, out of the dull glare of the sodium lamps into a darkness that knows her better than she knows herself. This Roséhip and hibiscus saison mourns distant sweetness turned bitter by earthly corruption.

The Zero Carbon Bill is an opportunity for New Zealand to lead the world on smart agricultural emissions policy. James Shaw has regularly touted his wish to see our country as international leaders on climate change and is trying to break new ground by bringing biological emissions into the ETS. To be leaders however, we must look forward and not backwards.
The issues with the current Global Warming Potential (GWP) accounting system for methane are now widely publicised and understood. Anyone who cares to investigate the origins of GWP accounting will find it was actually created by a group of climate scientists to demonstrate the flaws in comparing short and long-lived greenhouse gases. To their surprise, the IPCC saw things differently and adopted it as the international standard. So although GWP is now the accepted way to compare different GHG emissions, people should not be fooled into thinking it got there on scientific merit.
The flaws with GWP create significant policy issues for the Zero Carbon Bill. The goal of the Paris Agreement is specifically to stop warming, yet the Government response to this is a simplistic tax on methane emissions. The Government currently has no way to calculate the warming effect from steady flow methane emissions so cannot even say if the tax is successful in its' goal or not.
This point is compounded by the fact MfE has recently confirmed they do not know if NZ agriculture is contributing to warming or cooling as of 2018. Surely a world leader in agricultural climate change policy should be able to answer this basic question?
No one would argue with the fact a ton of methane emitted into the atmosphere will cause warming, that's just a fact. That's not how farms work however, they emit a steady flow of methane over time and if that flow is stabilised, any ongoing warming effect is thought to be 'very minor'. This is important for our industry because 2016 methane emissions were only 4% above 1990 levels and are declining. The warming effect from methane is probably zero but farmers have no agreed way to demonstrate that yet.
If New Zealand really does have ambitions of leadership in this important global issue we will need to do things differently. Finding way to account for methane that directly correlates to warming is an absolute must for our ETS to have scientific integrity. Prominent climate scientists like David Frame from Victoria University have identified this as an issue and are promoting solutions such as the GWP* metric.
The other aspect holding us back from a leadership position on agricultural emissions is our lack of understanding on carbon sequestration. All the research funding has gone into the emissions side of the equation and almost none into understanding how much carbon is locked up annually on agricultural land. How can farmers possibly complete an individual farm GHG budget with only half the information? We now know thanks to the good work of Beef and Lamb that their farmers alone possess 1.4 million hectares' of woody vegetation. Although the detail on actual sequestration rates is still being worked out, much of this area will be regenerating native bush which will continue sequestering carbon for hundreds of years.
This give's New Zealand its' next big opportunity to innovate and show leadership. Satellite senor technology is now so advanced that we can accurately measure above ground biomass accumulation. Instead of using rough estimates of carbon accumulation using farm maps and sequestration rate tables, we should be assessing properties annually and giving farmers credit for their annual measured carbon accumulation. Sure, it will take a couple of years to develop and calibrate this type of system, but any country trying to claim a leadership position cannot ignore this technology.
The future of agricultural emissions accounting is to link satellite biomass data with individual farm GHG budgets using a model such as Overseer. We must also use a smarter way to account for methane which directly correlates to warming. If we can achieve this, we will not only be world leaders in accounting for agricultural emissions, but we might very well have created the world's first verifiable 'warming neutral' agricultural industry. The Paris Agreement allows us the flexibility to innovate and do things better so as Jacinda Ardern would say, "lets' do this!"

Five Ways to Have a More Empowered Pelvic Exam
Pelvic Exam. Possibly one of the most anxiety-riddled phrases known to the female-bodied population. It is a phrase that often evokes images of patients lying in a paper gown with their feet in stirrups while a doctor places a spotlight on their genitals and proceeds to poke around, for what seems like an eternity. It can be awkward. Terribly awkward, but it doesn't have to be. And it's necessary to remember that a routine pelvic exam is an important part of healthcare for female-bodied people.
What to expect during a pelvic exam
During this routine visit, the doctor will discuss any health-related questions or concerns you have, maybe discuss birth control options and safe sex practices, recommend testing for STIs, and give you any advice for your overall wellness. At this visit, the doctor will also conduct a physical exam which includes breast, vulvar, and rectal exams, as well as a pap smear. Pap smear. The main event of a pelvic exam and the part most people are afraid of.
So, what is a pap smear? A pap smear is a routine screening that occurs during a pelvic exam. The doctor will insert a speculum to gently open the walls of your vagina and then use a long cotton swab to delicately wipe some cells from your cervix (your cervix is the muscle that serves as the opening of your uterus). The swab will then go to the lab where it will be screened for any abnormalities, including pre-cancer or cancer cells.
Having a pap smear can be a very vulnerable experience. I mean, you're lying on your back with your feet in stirrups, it doesn't get more vulnerable than that. But, there are several ways to make your routine pelvic exam and pap smear a more empowering experience. Here are five ways how:
1. Speak up
Having a pelvic exam can cause a lot of anxiety, especially if it's your first one. Talking about it can help alleviate your fear. Letting the doctor know you are nervous gives you both the opportunity to have an open dialogue about it. Knowing what the exam entails, what it will feel like, and how long it will last can help you mentally prepare, which can help reduce tension, which will help reduce anxiety and even physical discomfort.
2. Get hands-on
If the idea of having a stranger open your vaginal muscles makes you feel embarrassed, ask to insert the speculum yourself. Many doctors appreciate the willingness of patients to get involved. Plus, it can help you feel more in control.
3. Swab yourself
This is on par with suggestion number two. Ask if you can do the swabbing yourself. Doing this allows you to become familiar with your anatomy and lets you to dictate the pressure of the swab.
4. Take a peek
Not everyone has a speculum at home *(but you can buy one!) with which to examine their vagina or cervix, so, take advantage at your pelvic exam by asking the doctor if you can watch what they are doing. Many doctors have mirrors on-hand for you to follow along. Remember, it's your body. It's ok to look.
5. Cop a feel
During this routine exam, the doctor will do a breast exam and check the size of your uterus/ovaries by pressing on your stomach. Ask to do it, too. Have them show you how to conduct a breast and external pelvic exam so you will know how to do it at home. Plus, you will be able to identify any changes over time, hence, becoming body literate.
A pelvic exam might seem awkward, embarrassing, and even uncomfortable, but it doesn't have to be. Knowing what to expect and getting involved during your exam can help you feel more in control, can help you gain more understanding of your body, and can help empower you in a situation that might otherwise make you feel vulnerable. Be an active participant in your healthcare and utilize your pelvic exam as an opportunity to learn as much as you can.
When and how often to have a pelvic exam
It is generally recommended you schedule your first exam after you become sexually active (or just before if you are planning to use hormonal birth control or **LARCs). If you have not become sexually active by age 21, it's time to schedule an exam. And then for routine healthcare screenings, schedule an exam every three years.
where to go for a pelvic exam
There are a lot of places available for you to seek reproductive healthcare. Family practice doctors, Planned Parenthood, and even midwifes and birth centers offer routine care. You can use this handy clinic finder from the Health Resources and Service Administration to explore clinics near you.
*If you would like a suggestion for buying a cervical examination kit, we will gladly make one
**LARC = long-acting reversible contraceptive

Stand up against human trafficking
₹ 839,565Raised
The Problem
The three wise monkeys see no evil, hear no evil and speak no evil, just like many of us
do when it comes to taboo issues such as human trafficking. We avoid looking at
the girls who are too young to be working in houses; we turn a deaf ear to
their cries and ignore stories of abuse we hear; we refrain from speaking about
human trafficking or raising questions about the suspicious activity around us.
Jharkhand is one of the states most severely affected by this problem. Villagers suffering
in poverty are easily tricked by agents who take their children away under the
false pretexts of marriage or job opportunities. The parents believe that their
daughter can provide a steady income to the family and feel relieved to have
one less mouth to feed. Little do they realise that their children, mostly
girls, are trafficked to large cities in India where they are sold off as either child brides or domestic help.
Very often, the girls are forced to work without any wages and are sexually exploited. They
have no one to turn to and may never see their families again unless they manage to escape. Many of these girls become mothers even before they reach adulthood. Lack of opportunities, illiteracy and desperation for money drag their children into the same fate.
Our Solution
Back to school: Parents and Community Leaders are
made aware about the importance of education and the children are enrolled in
school. Once they are enrolled the community ensures that they stay in school
and complete their education at least up to grade 8.
Earn while you learn: this is an intervention which encourages parents to enroll their children in school. The children are given a duck or a chicken or materials to start their own vegetable garden; a means for them to raise money and learn basic skills relevant to the community while they go to school. This convinces parents that sending their children to school help the child acquire skills relevant to their community as well as earn some money. This provides an alternative to Child Labour in the villages.
Computer based education: we use specially programmed software to support classroom interactions and enhance the learning process. Another intervention is to provide Computer Based Functional Literacy to adults who missed out on primary school education. They are taught how to read and write in the local language and learn basic arithmetic, making them functionally literate.
Children's clubs and youth clubs: we have always found that the greatest influence in any community is from the members of the community. Forming children's clubs and youth clubs where the girls can communicate with others of their age group and share their experience and fears reinforce their understanding of their rights, and ensures that they make well informed decisions concerning their futures. This also assures them that they are not alone in the fight against abuse.
Community watch-groups: these groups are formed from community members who are concerned about the future of their children. Each village will have its own community watch group. They will ensure that the all the children go to school and that they are not abused and/or trafficked by agents.
The Impact
The Earn while you Learn intervention will encourage parents to send their children back to school. Once they are in school Computer based education will enhance the children's learning experience and they will show more interest in school activities to meaningfully participate. Thus children have an opportunity to acquire good education, enabling them to prepare for a better future and preventing them from getting conned by the traffickers.
Computer based education for adults will give them basic functional literacy skills to improve their livelihood. This in turn will help pull families out of poverty and prevent them from sending their children to cities with unknown strangers.
Children's clubs and youth clubs will help create a stronger bond amongst the children and youth, enabling them to look out for each other, and will help them learn about their rights. The groups will also be a great help in rehabilitating the girls who escaped from the traffickers. Emotional support from their peers and other victims will go a long way in rebuilding their confidence.
Community watch-groups will ensure that the community members act as guardians to the girls of their village, and prevent traffickers from approaching the girls.

Condemning Africa
Looking for someone else to blame?
Condemning is a furious tone of the speech! Who am I to condemn anything?
Let us take somebody who may not mine us mentioning their title. The Pope condemns African corruption. Coming from the Pope, this is kind of terrorizing, is it not? Now, I am not sure if this really happened this way or not. But just for an example, Why would the Pope or anybody else just "condemn African corruption"? Even more specific, why would anybody just condemn sorcery? That with integrity, magnanimity and compassion Africans could transform their continent, that will work with any continent. Kofi Annan has launched a similar attack. Now look at what you have gone and started?
Do you know what I, he or any one else could be doing instead of condemning? He could be sitting at home, writing on the internet, sharing all the good deeds his organization is doing to combat, World peace and terrorism. What about setting a good example? Being a good steward! Here is my "little dig" with a condemning Pope or anybody else, for that matter? What about homosexuality amongst priests and child molestation? What about abortion, banks, governments, recession, depression, morality, birth control, same sex? What about disease? What about corruption anywhere and everywhere? What does the Pope have to say about Iraq?
Only God can condemn.
Why not start at the source? I can or can not condone but, I can not condemn. You can transform this continent, freeing the people from the whip of greed, violence, disorder and guiding it through the path of those principles that are indispensable to "any modern democracy". Where was the Pope during American Slavery, the Atlantic Slave Trade and during Apartheid In America? A matter of profound shame.
It is easy to tear anything down, but it is a whole nother story to build up. Condoning to help reduce risk and to send a positive signal that partners respect one another. The idea here is to conduct yourself in such a manner that people will "willingly" want to follow.
Which is more prosperous condemning or condoning?

Crime Alert! How Thinking about a Single Suspect Automatically Shifts Stereotypes toward an Entire Group
Akalis, Scott
Published Versionhttps://doi.org/10.1017/S1742058X08080181
MetadataShow full item record
CitationAkalis, Scott A., Mahzarin R. Banaji, and Stephen M. Kosslyn. 2008. Crime alert! How thinking about a single suspect automatically shifts stereotypes toward an entire group. Du Bois Review: Social Science Research on Race 5(2): 217-233.
AbstractCrime alerts are meant to raise community awareness and identify individual criminal suspects; they are not expected to affect attitudes and beliefs toward the social group to which an individual suspect belongs. However, psychological principles of learning, categorization, and memory predict that what is learned about an instance can color perception of an entire category. At the intersection of psychology, criminal justice, sociology, and media studies, two experiments were conducted to test the effect that providing individual racial identity in crime alerts has on racial group stereotypes. In Experiment 1, participants visualized four scenarios involving Black or White would-be criminals. Results revealed that in the case where Black would-be criminals were made salient in memory, participants demonstrated significantly more negative implicit stereotypes toward Blacks as a group compared with a condition in which White would-be criminals were more salient in memory. In Experiment 2, participants read a written description of a crime scene with a suspect who was either depicted as White or Black, and then imagined the suspect. On both implicit and explicit measures of group stereotypes obtained afterward, participants who read about a Black criminal reported and revealed more anti-Black/pro-White stereotypes than did those who read about a White criminal. Crime alerts that mention racial identity, whatever their benefit, come with the burden of shifting stereotypes of social groups. In this context, the value of racial identification in crime alerts warrants reconsideration.

Women at Wells and Wedding Bells
Yesterday I was listening to a podcast of a sermon by Douglas Wilson. Wilson began a sermon series entitled "Surveying the Text" back in November where each sermon goes over an entire book of the Bible from a 30,00 ft perspective. Wilson had already gone through the Pentateuch (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) and then began doing the Gospels. The sermon I was listening to was his overview of the Gospel of John entitled "That You May Believe." I wanted to briefly share something I found interesting from the sermon.
Wilson stated that one of the key themes in the book of John (and the book of Revelation for that matter) was the theme of Jesus claiming a bride. You can go through John and see that that one of the goals that Jesus came to accomplish was to claim his bride through his death on the cross. Yet this theme is presented in a subversive way in John. The theme is subversive because of who John highlights as "bride" characters. We can learn from the rest of the New Testament that the bride of Christ is the church. However, in the book of John, there are certain women who are typological of this cosmic bride. The reason John subverts this theme is by who he highlights as the typological brides.
One example of a "bride type" is Mary Magdalene. We know from the gospels that she had seven demons exorcised from her and we can infer that she was a woman of ill repute. That said, her status as a bride type is cemented in many ways. Perhaps most strikingly is the account in John when Mary meets Christ outside his tomb on the morning of resurrection.
This scene is a reenactment of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden with key differences. According to Wilson, Adam met Eve in a garden of life, and yet, all their innocence was behind them while sin, death and shame lay before them. Contrarily, when Jesus met his "bride type" (Mary Magdalene) in a garden of death (a cemetery) all the sin, death and shame was behind (in the tomb) while life, innocence and glory lay before them. The point that Wilson made clear was that the bride of Christ is typified in a character like Mary Magdalene. Like her, those who make up the church have a past that is marred with sin and shame. At the same time, because we belong to Christ, life, innocence and glory lay before us.
While this example is probably the most clear and the most powerful example of the "bride type" in John's gospel, it is not the only one. Wilson brought his audience's attention to the scene in John 4 when Jesus speaks with the Samaritan women at the well. This is a very familiar scene to most Christians who have grown up in an evangelical church. I have heard many different sermons on this scene ranging many different topics (all for the most part relevant).
However, I had never heard this portion of John highlighted in light of Jesus seeking a bride, which is exactly what Wilson does. Wilson points out that every time an important male figure in the Old Testament meets with a woman at a well a wedding is in order. Abraham's servant met Isaac's wife, Rebekah, at a well (Gen. 24). Jacob met Rachel at a well (Gen. 29). Moses met Zipporah at at well (Exodus 2). This is astonishing to take into account when we approach John 4. If we are as familiar with the Old Testament as we ought to be, Jesus's interaction with this adulterous Samaritan will carry significant weight.
As in the interaction between Mary Magdalene after the resurrection, Jesus is showing us the type of people who will ultimately make up his bride. Jesus came to to obtain a bride, yet he did not come for a spotless bride. Rather, Jesus comes and chooses a bride who needs to be made spotless. If we continue to follow John's thought in Revelation all this comes to a glorious climax when John sees a spotless bride "the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God."
