Labour has closed the gap on Conservatives following the publication of party manifestos for the General Election, according to a series of opinion polls.
As Jeremy Corbyn claimed his message was "getting through" to voters, four polls for the Sunday newspapers put Labour between 35% and 33%, up significantly on the scores as low as 26% it was recording early in the campaign.
The Tory advantage was narrowed to just nine points in one survey by YouGov for the Sunday Times, the first time it has been in single figures in a mainstream poll since Theresa May called the snap election on April 18.
Although the figures would deliver a comfortable Tory majority if repeated on June 8, they will bolster Labour insiders' belief that Mr Corbyn's campaign is making inroads into Theresa May's support following her poorly-received policies on social care for the elderly.
Crucially, a result on these lines would put Mr Corbyn comfortably above the 30.4% vote share achieved by Ed Miliband in 2015, which some supporters argue should be seen as a benchmark of whether he should stay on as leader.
READ MORE: SNP bid to reset Brexit debate
One Labour insider characterised the mood in the Corbyn camp as "extremely positive", after the Labour leader attracted a crowd of thousands to a rally in super-marginal Wirral West and then heard his name chanted in approval by rock fans when he appeared on stage before the Libertines at a music festival at Tranmere Rovers football ground in Birkenhead.
The 35% support for Labour recorded by YouGov for the Sunday Times is the best rating for the party since March last year before the divisive EU referendum and the abortive challenge to Mr Corbyn's leadership.
The poll put Tories on 44%, though Mrs May's party was on 46% in separate surveys by ORB International for the Sunday Telegraph, Opinium for the Observer and Survation for the Mail on Sunday.
The Survation survey, conducted entirely after Thursday's Tory manifesto launch, found 28% of voters said they were less likely to vote Conservative because of the social care package, branded a "dementia tax" by opponents.
Just 28% of those questioned approved and 47% disapproved of the scheme, which would allow the value of a person's home to be included in their assets when recouping the cost of care at home, with protection for £100,000 of the total.
Conservatives took the fight to Labour over Mr Corbyn's tax plans, with a claim almost five million homes could be affected by his promise to lower thresholds for inheritance tax.
Labour's manifesto promised to reverse inheritance tax "giveaways" introduced by the Conservatives, but did not say what threshold the party would set for the 40% levy.
Reversing George Osborne's reforms, which have lifted it to £850,000 and are due to see it rise further to £1 million by 2021, would take it back down to £650,000.
Chancellor Philip Hammond claimed Labour would go further and impose the tax on all homes worth £425,000 or more, which would catch 3.9 million of the 25 million properties across England and Wales.
Rising house prices could be expected to increase the total to 4.9 million within five years if the threshold stayed at that level, said Tories.
If the Conservative figures are right, some 51% of homes in London, 48% in Cambridge, 46.7% in Guildford and 38.7% in Oxford would be liable, the party said.
READ MORE: Candidates call truce to respect late Jo Cox
Overall, some 15.3% of properties in England and Wales would be hit, with the lowest impact felt in Torfaen in south Wales (0.2% of properties), Merthyr Tydfil (0.3%) and Neath Port Talbot and Barrow-in-Furness (0.6%).
Mr Hammond said: "Jeremy Corbyn wants to hit family homes with a bombshell of new taxes.
"Ordinary families across the country will suffer because of his nonsensical policies.
"People who have worked hard all their lives, saved and improved their homes will now be hit with this punishing family homes tax."
Meanwhile, Mr Corbyn made a further push to win over pensioners by highlighting five Labour pledges for older people, in a sign of his belief that the Tory manifesto, which also included plans to ditch the triple-lock protection on the state pension and means-test winter fuel payments, has weakened the Conservatives' formerly firm grip on the grey vote.
The Labour leader said he would keep the triple lock, winter fuel payments and free bus passes and would halt planned rises in the retirement age beyond 66, as well as ensuring "justice" for women born in the 1950s affected by the equalisation of women's and men's pension eligibility.
"Not satisfied with plunging our social care system into crisis, Theresa May's nasty party has promised more attacks on older people," said Mr Corbyn.
"Theresa May and the Conservatives won't stand up for pensioners, their only concern is their billionaire friends.
"Labour is proud to stand up for the many, not the few."
:: The ORB poll for the Sunday Telegraph put Conservatives on 46%, Labour on 34% and Liberal Democrats on 7% following interviews with 2,040 voters on May 17 and 18.
:: Opinium's survey for The Observer had Tories on 46%, Labour on 33% and Lib Dems on 8%. The company questioned 2,003 voters on May 16 and 17.
:: Survation's poll for The Mail On Sunday put the Tories on 46% and Labour on 34%, with Lib Dems trailing on 8%. Survation questioned 1,017 adults on May 19 and 20.
:: For the Sunday Times, YouGov had the Conservatives on 44%, Labour on 35% and Lib Dems on 9%. YouGov polled 1,005 adults on May 18 and 19.

- Introduces additional options for blackberry users
- Best deal for only TZS700 per day
- To enroll customers can opt for the Airtel Blackberry by dialing the short code *148*77# and have access
Airtel Tanzania the most affordable communications services provider has today launched new Blackberry packages with features tailored to help people stay connected to business partners, family and friends.
The two new packages, Blackberry Complete (KAMILI) and Blackberry Social (GENGE) from Airtel, are available on the daily, weekly and monthly subscription options. With the new packages, Tanzanians can now enjoy Blackberry services at affordable prices from Airtel for as low as 700Tsh.
The monthly fee for the BlackBerry Social or (GENGE) is now 12000 TSH while the Blackberry Complete (KAMILI) from Airtel package is available at 17500 TSH. The services is also available for weekly subscription with blackberry Genge services, airtel customer's will only pay 3,500Tsh per week
The Genge service from Airtel allows for internet browsing, BBM, Facebook and Twitter while the Kamili service gives access to BlackBerry Messenger (BBM), BlackBerry Email and Instant Messaging (Google Talk and Yahoo Messenger). Included is full access to browse the internet, BlackBerry App World, Social Networking such as Facebook, Twitter and one Web-based Email Account (Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, etc).
On the new Blackberry services launch statement Airtel Public Relations Manager, Jackson Mmbando said "To enroll customers can opt for the Airtel Blackberry Social Plan, (GENGE) or Complete, (KAMILI) by dialing the short code *148*77# and have access to an exciting total Blackberry experience that offers email service, instant messaging, internet access, Blackberry App World and social networking, amongst others".
Adding more light on the service upgrade, Airtel Public Relations Manager, Jackson Mmbando emphasized that the latest additions to the Airtel Blackberry bouquet was influenced by not only on the yeaning of customers for Blackberry internet service, but also on Airtel's desire to give customers complete communication package that seamlessly connects them with loved ones and associates, keeps them socially relevant and serves as their mobile offices while on the go, at affordable and most competitive prices.
"We have with these additions, further removed the entry barrier for both our old and new customers access to the Airtel Blackberry service irrespective of class or social standing. Through this intervention, we have made the service more affordable to Tanzanians and at the same time, give access to features that will clearly complement the lifestyles of our customers".
The Airtel BlackBerry service is designed to give customers across its various segments remote access to information. In addition to the latest services, Airtel BlackBerry suites of products boast of unique features such as Enterprise Solutions and Internet Solutions. This allows Airtel customers to synchronize their exchange mail to their Blackberry device.
Another superb feature offered by Airtel Blackberry in its Blackberry Kamili (formerly known as Blackberry Internet Service) is the Blackberry Protect. This feature allows a one to retrieve information from their Blackberry device remotely by simply logging into a webpage. With this feature, one can also trace the whereabouts of their device by remotely tracking it on a particular webpage.
Blackberry service is an internet driven service. This means that, the network that you are hosting your Blackberry service has to have perfect internet connection with most extensive reach. Airtel currently has the greatest internet in Tanzania. Airtel 3.75G speeds guarantee a perfect user experience of Blackberry service. Failure to have these speeds will give a customer poor experience which is what seems to be one of the biggest Airtel's competition in data related services offerings.

Phones have come a long way from pressing to now swiping. While we still see some people punching numbers on their mobile phones others are busy swiping. As I mentioned in some earlier post, our family is now Samsung and Android powered – mum, dad, sis and myself all have our own Samsung phones.
The fun part was when I was teaching mum how to use her then new Android phone, the first thing obviously was 'how to swipe' – basic function of any android phone. Like we all know the key to using a touch screen phone is 'swipe', that's basically what you'll end up doing the whole day, or at least a few hundred times.
All I told mum was "you need to swipe to open your phone" and she took to the instruction like fish to water..she was swiping everything on her phone in every direction.. (initial excitement) definitely 😂😂😂😂 moments. She mastered the swipe after a lot of practice. Though, now and then she has her anxious moments while swiping the green call button to pick an incoming call.. (incoming-call excitement) she'll go on a swiping spree.. 😆😆 by that time either the call has got cut or run out of its allotted rings (we all know how long it takes a woman to find a cell phone in her bag)
It's little over a month old and she loves her new mobile to bits, especially the YouTube app, you'll see her playing a lot of videos, besides whatsapp (she enjoys receiving videos and pictures). Dad is pretty possessive about his electronic gadget. So mom & dad are now riding the wave owning their personal 4G phones.
That leaves us, my sis and myself, we still are on 3G phones. How ironic!
Teaching your parents how to use an android phone will always be fun, might be a bit irritating at times when they keep asking the same questions over & over again, but they would have done it for us when we were small, so…….. no complaints 🙂
This made me smile all through while typing this post..just recollecting some fun times with mum and dad and a small gadget that's driving everyone crazy!!! 😂😂😆😆

Tomato update
In lieu of time to do anything else, I am going to have to restrict this blog to tomato updates, which are about my only hands on contact with food at the moment - other than meal times, but I'm not cooking anything :(
Only 2.5 more weeks to go, keep calm and carry on. Soon I will have a life again.
Incidentally the variety I went for is known as 'Gardener's Delight' - apparently an all round winner.

As some of you may know, I have been away for a little over three weeks on a Trans-Siberian adventure. We travelled from Beijing in China through Mongolia, then through Russia up to St Petersburg, all by train. It was wondrous, eye-opening, disconcerting and at times painful.
The painful part came from food choices that were made for me with a promise they were onion and garlic-free, and from the restrictive use of shared toilets on the trains.
Following is what I learned from this journey, which I knew from the get-go would be a tricky one to negotiate but which I was determined to undertake nevertheless. I don't let my IBS stop me from travelling. My main triggers are onion, garlic and fructose. The only things which can be hidden in food are the garlic and onion so they are the only things on my laminated cards, which I always carry with me when I travel – in the language of the country, of course. I use Google translate and copy and paste the strange characters as with Chinese and Russian.
On the whole, I had many more good days than bad. Some days, I wished I were back home but mostly I felt well and healthy and I had an amazing trip and saw things that are once-in-a-lifetime. I also learned so much about countries that are often misrepresented in the Western media and literature.

My pineapple rant made me very hungry for pineapple so I bought one!
Anyway, on to my actual topic: I apologize in advanced to anyone I embarrass or offend in this post, I'm not trying to do it, I'm simply going to be talking about some of my most favorite and least favorite memories in my life so far.
First I'm going to start with all my favorite memories...
2nd Grade Love Story: when I was in 2nd grade I had a good friend named Tanner and we were in love. Well as in love as two 2nd graders could be. One day in class we were getting ready to go to our story circle where our teacher would read us a book. Then I noticed a bunch of the kids surrounding Tanner looking at a picture he colored. So I obviously was curious and this is roughly what I saw...
Thanksgivings: my absolute favorite holiday of all time is Thanksgiving. Yes, it may be weird to those of you who believe that the holidays where you receive presents are the best holidays, but I'd rather spend time with my family any day! Thanksgivings for the Dayton family is intense. Our whole extended family gets together and we pig out along with a bunch of other fun stuff. My extended family on my Dad's side can be a little crazy sometimes, so much that we've scared off potential fiance's before. But in my eyes that's a good thing! Natural selection and all that, you know? Only the strongest can be taken into our family (so naturally I am terrified to ever bring guys I date to our family get togethers.)
My most favorite memory from our many family Thanksgivings actually happens to be from last Thanksgiving in California. We were staying at my Aunt and Uncles house and all the kids were spread out downstairs on air mattresses. In the middle of the night my brother Taylor, and cousins Sydnie, and Landon decided to play a joke of Blake who had fallen asleep earlier. So we picked up her mattress with her still on it and carried it into the kitchen. Luckily she's a very heavy sleeper. We did think about carrying her outside, but then we realized that she could be eaten by a wild dog so we didn't. Instead we just put food all around her bed and left her in the kitchen. There were lots of other good moments during that Thanksgiving. Including an awesome football game, watching my Grandparents play Just Dance on the Kinnect, eating loads of food, and going to Six Flags!
The Golf Cart Incident: now this memory is one of my most favorite memories from High School simply because I find it so hilarious! One day I was hanging out with my best friends Garrett, Justen, Seku, Caleb, and Brandon. We were at Caleb's farm and we were playing around with his family's golf cart. And for those of you who don't know, golf carts are really fast and powerful. Anyway I was standing near a tree with Justen and Garrett while Seku and Caleb were in the golf cart with Brandon who was driving. Now being the typical boys they are they were being extremely unsafe. Taking really sharp turns, pretending to run over us but turning at the last second, and so on. Then Caleb got an ingenious idea and decided to jump out of the moving cart, so he did just that. And then Seku decided to follow his lead. But the most genius move came from the driver Brandon. He turned the golf cart so it was heading towards Garrett, Justen, and I and then he proceeded to jump out of the golf cart as well.
So now we had a very fastly moving golf cart headed right towards us, so what did we instinctively do? We moved out of the way. Garrett and Justen moved to the right and I moved off to the left, and IF the golf cart had kept going straight it would've gone right between us. But alas the cart did not want to go straight, instead it veered and hit me instead. I was smashed by the out of control golf cart and rolled up onto the hood. I should also mention that this golf cart was headed directly towards the giant tree that was behind me. Luckily I managed to roll off the side of the cart right before I was smashed between the tree trunk and the golf cart.
Now some of you may be wondering why this very painful experience is one of my favorites and here is the reason; as soon as I hit the ground chaos broke out. Brandon was apologizing over and over while Garrett was screaming at him. Caleb was trying to make sure I was alright at the same time he was trying to make sure the golf cart and tree didn't inflict too much damage upon one another. Justen rushed over to me and began asking over and over if I needed to go to the hospital. And Seku stood shocked off to one side not knowing what to do with himself. During this whole entire time I was simply laughing my head off rolling around on the ground. Which didn't help the fact that they all thought I had brain damage. The rest of the night they kept telling me not to fall asleep and asking me random questions to make sure I wasn't having memory loss. Which was a very nice gesture since I had hit my head extremely hard against the golf cart. The next day I woke up with so many cuts and bruises. I think those were some of the best battle wounds I have ever had.
Lunchable Date: in High School I was dating a kid named Garrett. One afternoon he asked if I would like to go on a date with him so I agreed. It wasn't planned and when he picked me up I had no idea what we were going to do. We then drove to Smiths and bought Lunchables and Arizona's which we took up to our favorite spot in the mountains. We then climbed on top of his Geo and had a picnic and talked. That date was the best date I've ever been on.
The Man Cave: this is another good memory from High School. My friend Brandon had a crawl space under his house that we tricked out. We took apart some small sofa's and reassembled them down there and stuffed a couple bean bags and some chairs in that little room. We hooked up a mini television and covered up the mold covered walls with old blankets and clothes. We then stocked it with soda and put a stolen Davis Applied Technology College sign in it. We called it the Man Cave, which seemed only fair since I was the only girl in that entire group of friends and they all just thought of me as one of the guys. We spent so much time down there playing Halo, or having 24 or The Office marathons. Sometimes I still wonder if that mold was toxic because we would all be so loopy after spending over 18 hours down there after each marathon weekend.
My Goodbye: the day before I was supposed to leave for college my good friend Seku got baptized. It was such an emotional day for all of us! His best friend Justen performed the baptism and then we all hung out for the rest of that day. Most of that day I spent in tears. I was so sad that I was going to be leaving all of my great High School friends to go off to SUU. We played our very last game of tag that night and then I said goodbye to everyone. I cried and hugged all of them goodbye and surprisingly none of them made fun of me for crying. It was a really sad night, but I'm glad I got to have that last good night with them before our group broke apart to all the different places we are in now.
Stories Shared in Juni: during my first year of college I made a really good friend named Gratten, who I eventually started to date. But one night before we ever starting dating each other we stayed up really late talking in my hall in Juniper. We talked for hours that night about so many different things. We told funny stories about all our past relationships (and when I say all our past relationships I mean my ONLY past relationship and his 7 or 8 past relationships.) We told stories about our families, our friends, and our pasts. We talked about what we wanted to do in the future. We talked for so long and got to know each other so well. It was such a great night, and one of my many cherished memories from Juniper!
The Night of the Stolen Trees: one night in Juniper McKenna, Gratten, Nick, and I decided to pull an all nighter. And that night turned out to be a pretty epic night! We ended up stealing all the fake trees that were placed throughout Juniper and we stored them in McKenna's room. We turned the room into a forest and then watched a movie in there. Later that night once most everyone was already asleep we decided to go put all of the trees in front of one of our R.A's doors. So we carried each tree and placed them all in front of Jayson's door on the C200 hall. Unfortunately after that Nick went to sleep so we lost one of our buddies, but that didn't stop us! McKenna, Gratten, and I then took a walk to Maverick where we bought ice cream and caffeine to keep us awake. Then when we got back to Juni we filmed a stop motion video and attempted to keep ourselves awake by telling stories in McKenna's room. By then it was about 6 in the morning, which is when we finally gave up and all passed out. That was another really good night in Juniper!
Night Walk: Towards the end of last Semester I made a really good friend. That friend's name is Josh. One night after we had been hanging out with a bunch of theatre people playing Body Body Body we ended up going on a walk and talking. Without even realizing it we walked around campus and talked until about 5 in the morning. We actually had some very meaningful conversations interspersed with randomness. It was a great night and I'm really glad that I made a good friend who I could talk to about important things.
The Games: The last memory I have to share with you happened at the end of this last semester. I was studying for my History Final and was stressing out pretty bad when I got this phone call from Maddie. She asked what I was doing and then told me to come downstairs, so I did. That is when I found this note taped to the glass door of my building...
I was going to talk about all my least favorite memories in this blog post as well, but I think this post is already getting pretty lengthy. So I'm going to end it here and save my sadder memories for a different time.

I am having some trouble with ImageMagick.
I have installed GhostScript v9.00 and ImageMagick-6.6.7-1-Q16 on Windows 7 - 32Bit
When I run the following command in cmd
convert D:\test\sample.pdf D:\test\pages\page.jpg
only the first page of the pdf is converted to pdf. I have also tried the following command
convert D:\test\sample.pdf D:\test\pages\page-%d.jpg
This creates the first jpg as page-0.jpg but the other are not created. I would really appreciated if someone can shed some light on this. Thanks.
I have ran the command using -debug "All"
one of the many lines out put says:
2011-01-26T22:41:49+01:00 0:00.727 0.109u 6.6.7 Configure Magick[5800]: nt-base.c/NTGhostscriptGetString/1008/Configure

Could it maybe have something to do with GhostScript after all?

Magic Lantern Slides
For those that missed Wednesday's excellent talk by Richard Kretchmer, or for those that just want to see the images a bit more vividly, we've now uploaded the re-photographed, delicately hand-coloured magic lantern slides and you can see all 70-odd of them in more detail in their own gallery here – Magic Lantern Slides from Llanfyllin circa 1900.
It was a fascinating insight into the local area around 1900s through the eyes of a newly-discovered local amateur photographer John Ellis Jones, or 'Non' Jones of Globe House. Thanks go to Richard and to Pauline Page-Jones for the work on the slideshow.
Don't miss John Hainsworth's upcoming talk "Paupers, Bastards and Lunatics – Living the Poor Life in the Llanfyllin Union Workhouse" – which is on Wednesday 10th April 2013 at the Institute, Llanfyllin, 7:30pm.

I know vaginismus is something that a lot of women feel too ashamed and embarrassed to talk about. I know that a lot of women who are not as shameless and bloody-minded as me would have given up after being turned away from the first pharmacy, let alone the second, which were both well known pharmacies in the centre of London. It is yet more proof that vaginismus is something which we need to be talking about more. If we compare the lack of awareness - having to go to 3 different pharmacies, struggling to find a purchasable brand on the internet - to the prevalence of solutions for men with erectile dysfunction (I'm not comparing the actual issues here, just drawing a male-female comparison) you see a massive disparity in what is out there. Viagra for instance is a household name, and we see advertising for erectile dysfunction cures everywhere, you see it on tube posters for goodness sake! Again, these are two very different issues, but should public awareness be dealt with so very differently? Why is vaginismus so little spoken about; why shouldn't people be aware of vaginal dilators, which after all are so helpful to so many women? I have no real answers, but I do know that things really need to change.
Do - Take your time to insert. An inch, a millimetre - it is all progress.
Don't - Feel you need to rush.

PNI OxyTHERM
PNI OxyTHERM
PNI's new OxyTHERM Pro is a thermogenic that functions as an "alpha 2 blocker." This is widely considered to be 2014's replacement to OxyELITE Pro.
The alpha-2 receptor has been implicated in a number of studies as an agent that directs fat storage to "trouble areas" for fat loss, particularly the abdomen.[1,2] OxyTHERM Pro's proprietary blend aims to disable alpha-2 receptors, thereby promoting the burning of subcutaneous fat that surrounds muscles, rather than the visceral fat that supports and protects organs.
Rauwolscine leaf and root
Rauwolscine is an extract of yohimbine that functions as a natural alpha-2 receptor antagonist.
4-amino-2-methylpentane citrate
Also seen in other products, such as AMP Citrate, this is a Pouchong tea extract meant to speed up metabolism.[3]
Bauhinia purpurea 10:1 extract
Bauhinia purpurea is a plant that grows in Asia and the United States. In studies, it has been found to have a wide range of beneficial health properties.[4] The 10:1 ratio indicates it may be included to protect the liver, as this ratio was used in a study that demonstrated benefit to rats with liver damage.[5] Other supplements have used it as a metabolic booster.[6]
Bacopa monnieri 50% extract
This water hyssop extract is often paired in other supplements with bauhinia purpurea. It is thought to increase metabolism and regulate thyroid hormones.[7]
Cirsium oligophyllum 10:1 extract
This is believed to enhance the thermogenic effect of caffeine, based on results from a study on body fat loss in rats, published by the International Journal of Biological Sciences.[8]
Caffeine (250mg)
The equivalent of about two-and-a-half cups of coffee, this is likely the primary thermogenic agent in the formula. It is also included to provide energy.

Thomas Cocklyn
Thomas Cocklyn was an 18th-century English pirate, known primarily for his association and partnership with Howell Davis and Oliver La Buze. He was reportedly elected captain "due to his brutality and ignorance" when first sailing from New Providence in 1717.[1]
On April 1, 1719, Cocklyn was a participant in the capture of the West African-bound English slave ship the Bird Galley at the mouth of the Sierra Leone River. The three pirate captains celebrated their victory on board the ship for nearly a month before releasing its captain, William Snelgrave, and giving him the Bristol Snow and the remaining cargo left from the pirates' week-long occupation of the ship.
Due to disagreements between the captains,[2] the three parted ways on May 10, 1719. Subsequently, records of Cocklyn's career and life after 1719 are undocumented.

|Re: Axis stub caller from EJB
|Mon, 06 Feb 2006 23:24:37 GMT
Are you saying that you have a web service in Axis server 1, and you want an EJB in Geronimo server 2 to call that web service? If so... It sounds like you generated client code (interfaces and stubs) for the web service with Axis, and bundled all that with your EJB. If that's correct, you'll probably need to add <hidden-classes> elements to your geronimo-ejb-jar.xml listing the Axis package prefix, to prevent your EJB JAR from seeing the Geronimo version of the Axis libraries. I'm not totally sure this won't break other things, but it seems like your best bet if you really need to use the Axis client stubs (because you most likely want Axis and all the interfaces to be in the same classloader, namely the EJB's classloader). However, the more portable appraoch is to forget about the Axis-generated stubs and add a service-ref to ejb-jar.xml for that EJB, pointing to the WSDL and JAX-RPC mapping file describing the service, and also bundle the service interface and port (aka service endpoint) interface with the EJB classes in the EJB JAR. You do not need any stubs, since Geronimo will generate those as needed. The down side to this approach is that you'll probably need to write the JAX-RPC mapping file (or use the JWSDP to generate the client, since I think it can write a JAX-RPC mapping file for you). There's some documentation on this approach here: http://chariotsolutions.com/geronimo/web-services.html Thanks, Aaron On 2/6/06, lubaki nsele <email@example.com> wrote: > > Is anyone has been successful to call Axis webservice using stubs from EJBs > in Geronimo? > stubs are packaged as libraries in the EJB app and need to make remote call > to a webservice.

Announced in the 2nd Meeting of the Policy-Committee of Food and Dietary Supplements Conference
The 2nd meeting of the policy-committee of the 6th Conference on Food and Dietary Supplements was held on December 11th 2017 in the Office of Natural, Traditional and Supplementary Products of the Food and Drug Administration. In this meeting, together with Dr. Abbas Kebriaeizade, chairman of the conference policy committee, Dr. Hedayat Hosseini, scientific secretary of the conference, Dr. Mahnaz Khanavi, general director of the Office of Natural, Traditional and Supplementary Products of the Food and Drug Administration, Dr. Jaafar Mirfakhraei, secretary of the Association of Food, Dietary and Vitamin Supplements Importers, Dr. Seyyed Mohammad Naseri, secretary of the Association of Food and Dietary Supplements Manufacturers and Maziar Nazemi, head of the Public Relations Dept. and Media of the Ministry of Sports and Youth were present in this meeting as the members of this conference's policy committee.
Pointing out the fact that these conferences are held in order to improve the rate of knowledge and skills in supplements, Dr. Kebriaeizade added that: "The problems we are facing in sport supplements are mostly rooted in the ministry of sports and youth. That is because the ministry of health has done its part and regulated the manufacturing and imports of the products and a system has been implemented so that all products that are manufactured or imported have the qualifications confirmed by the ministry of health. Unfortunately, among our sports clubs, supplements that are not approved, are easily accessible."
Chairman of the Association of Importers of Food and Dietary Supplements stressed that: "The ministry of sports and youth must help in creating trends for the health and safety of the supplements; meaning that when we want to create a sanitation trend for supplements, the impact of conferences on policies, methods and endeavors in the ministry of health is effective, except for the field of sports."
Promoting the Safety of Sport Supplements; Most Important Policy of this Conference
Chairman of the policy committee of the Food and Dietary Supplements Conference added that: "Our intention is to promote organizing the safety of sport supplements and NGOs active in this field can be very helpful. It has been years since efforts are made to manufacture healthy supplements. But there is no guarantee that they are consumed safely or that the supplements are safely delivered to the consumers or not.
Collaboration of the Ministry of Sports and Youth, Adjacent to the 6th Conference on Food and Dietary Supplements
Maziar Nazemi, head of the PR dept. of the ministry of sports and youth, attending this meeting gave a report of the ministry's participation in the 6th Conference on Food and Dietary Supplements and stated that: "Knowing the desired audience for conferences and exhibitions is one of the most important aspects of each event. We must know the audience for this event. There are instances where the general public are the audience, who are facing problems in choosing the right supplement and providing it; however, there are times when we have a specialized range of audience including coaches, fitness athletes, etc. who are prescribing and consuming these supplements on their own desire. Therefore, one of the main policies followed by this conference every year, is to professionally inform and train the audience."
He also said that we can refer to the efforts made to create collaboration platform with the ministry of sports and the NGOs. He later stated that: "I believe that a basic comprehensive plan of actions must be implemented on gyms, which is one of our bigger problems. There are people in gyms who are expansively trading illegally, some of which results in deaths and injuries that are never investigated."
Analyzing the goals and subjects of the 6th Conference on Food and Dietary Supplements was among the most important subjects of this meeting and they were determined with the collective thoughts of the policy making committee. Accordingly, the most important goals and subjects of this event are as follows:
· Analyzing the latest scientific findings and the role of supplements in preventing sport injuries
· Analyzing and evaluating health and technical regulations and the available guides in quality control and evaluating the performance of supplements in the country
· Determining the role of government supervision organizations and NGOs in evaluating the health and performance of the supplements
· Determining the role of the ministry of health as the care taker in the health sector in evaluating the safety of the supplements
· Expectations of the ministry of health as the care taker in the health sector in evaluating the safety of the supplement
· The importance of the supervision process on the supplements' quality control
· Determining the role of the Medical and Sports Federation and Iran National Anti-Doping Organization in the quality control and health and effectiveness evaluation of supplements in sports
· Introducing the guidelines for the effective and successful consumption of supplements
· Informing, training and educating in supplements
· Analyzing the latest scientific findings regarding the effectiveness of the supplements and a review of the researches
· Improving methods of controlling, distribution and manufacturing of supplements
· Supervision and regulations pf quality control in supplements
· Improvement methods for supplements
· New inexpensive quality and quantity control methods for supplements
· Principles and basics of methodological consumption of supplements
· Iranian food qualified as supplements
· Function of supplements in chronic diseases
· Medical and Medical-Food intersections with supplements
· Evaluation method for the safety of supplements in the cycle of imports, manufacturing, distribution and consumption
· Sport supplements, doping and misuse
· Supplements and health
The 6th Conference on Food and Dietary Supplements, with the approach of quality control and evaluating the performance and safety of food and dietary supplements, adjacent to the Symposium of Evaluating the Safety of Sport Supplements will be held on June 19-21, 2018, in the International Conference Center of Tehran Olympic Hotel.

Cannabis, although becoming widely accepted as a medicine and even as a recreational substance, is still classified with the most dangerous of drugs. But what does cannabis risk consist of?
In all history of mankind, there is not one recorded death because of overdosing. The Free Though Project commented on the fact that more people die because of taking selfies than as a result of cannabis use.
Die-hard Reefer Madness
The die-hard prohibitionists, such as Attorney General Jeff Sessions, still hold the mindset created by the ultimate propaganda movie. It was made in 1936, and it was titled "Reefer Madness."
The film portrays cannabis users as insane killers who end up committing suicide. The whole idea was to scare people into thinking cannabis does really bad things to them. People were made to believe it could kill them. And yet, it is the only drug which has never killed anyone. Can legal tobacco and alcohol claim the same clear conscience? Most certainly not.
A selection of our products
Cannabis risk or cannabis health benefits?
Nowadays, it is becoming more and more apparent that responsible use of cannabis as oil extracts or edibles can have great health benefits. As this information becomes known, one state after another has voted for legal medical cannabis. Despite a lack of support from authorities who still speak of cannabis risk, nobody has died.
Things that do kill people
As an illustration of the absurdity of the prohibitionists' thoughts, Free Thought compared cannabis to things that actually do kill people. These include cows, pencils, lightning, jellyfish, champagne corks, and coconuts. And of course… tum-ta-ta-tum… selfies!
Between 2014 and 2016, lack of awareness while using smartphones has killed 127 people. Of these 127 selfie deaths, 76 took place in India, and eight in the US.
Still, cannabis is considered as one of the most dangerous substance and prohibition is strict. But everyone has a smartphone. Meanwhile, the government will lock you up, take you from your family, and remove you from society if you are caught growing or using this ancient medicinal plant. Presumably, they do this for our protection.
Killed on suspicion
Examples of this "protection" in action are scary! The chances of getting killed if police suspect you of using cannabis are much higher than getting killed by the cannabis itself. That's supposing that cannabis can kill – and there's no evidence of that.
An example of police protecting society occurred when Mark Tiller, a South Carolina police officer, shot and killed 19-year-old Zachary Hammond. He only had a few grams of marijuana in his possession. Police officer Rey Garza shot and killed Jonathan Santanella while waiting in a car because the officer thought he saw cannabis. Cannabis risk? This one must be the deadliest of all.
Cannabis risk: on a more serious note
Studies have shown that smoking cannabis is less risky than smoking cigarettes. So far, there is evidence that those who are predisposed to psychosis could be pushed over the edge of sanity by THC. But these cases are relatively rare.
Meanwhile, cannabis prohibition over an all-but-imagined cannabis risk that nobody can quite pinpoint means that all the helpful compounds in cannabis, including those that can't possibly make you high, are forbidden in many countries and US states. No matter how you may feel about THC, this is a classic case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

I have insomnia. I've had it for years. A few years ago I used to use a thunderstorm CD to help me fall asleep. Then I joined the circus. Thunderstorms ( and rain in general) now give me panic attacks. I'm not joking.
When you live in a circus you are basically living outside. The only thing that stands between you and the elements is a bit of fibreglass, a layer of insulation and some tacky wallpaper or woodeffect wall covering. Also, most RVs and house trailers are made to be driven on highways to a campground and parked a few times a year. Driving an RV over almost every road condition known to man and off-roading on a daily basis and parking on unlevel and unstable surfaces is not the way to maintain the vehicle. Also, these vehicles are meant to be in used in pleasurable weather and stored away from the elements in the not so great weather. This is not possible when in the circus.
In my few months on the circus, my motorhome and I experienced snow and freezing temperatures, blazing hot temperatures, high winds and tornado warnings, and lots and lots and lots of rain. In my first weeks I woke to a sopping wet couch and carpet more than once. I slept on my couch because my bed was wet from a new leak numerous times and on days when the rain was relentless and I was stuck in my house all day, I would
exhaust entertain myself by wringing out dish towels and calculating leak rates.
Eventually, I became a bit better at preparing for and dealing with precipitation. After setting up each morning, it was not unusually to see me on my roof with a silicon gun patching leaking seals. By the time I left the road, every window on my house had been re-sealed with silicon at least twice. I became obsessed with weather forecasts (like everyone else on the show) and finally found a practical use for all those cloud quizzes from my undergrad meteorology course. On days which rain was predicted I took precautionary measures by levelling my house in such a way to direct water runoff toward the strongest seals and away from problem areas and positioning towels under particularly stubborn leaks.
However, no matter how prepared I was for the actual water, I could never prepare for or eliminate the sound. For some reason, no one has yet to be able to explain it to me, rain hitting a motorhome is deafening. The incessant sound of pounding rain would drive me crazy. On the rare occasions that I had no leaks and could escape to a friends' house, I would be amazed at their acoustics. If not for the inescapable dampness, you would never had known it was raining.
In our current flat, when it rains, it sounds like being back in the motorhome and I suddenly go into leak anxiety mode. I race around checking for leaking windows and straining to hear the distinct plop, plop of an indoor leak. The fact that our gutters are crap and send sheets of water flowing down the walls and windows doesn't help. My skin gets that weird electric feeling like before you do something terrifying (like say zip-lining when you aren't that comfortable with heights) and I can't relax or concentrate. I literally pace the house continually checking.
It's the antidote to the romantic memories and feelings about the circus. It's remembering that it can be a b***h of a hard life that requires skill, endurance and commitment that is only gained through perseverance. It's a reminder that the show will go on despite the mud and the rain and that means you need to find a way to go on as well or get left behind.
There is a bit of a life lesson there I think.
I started writing this post as a pithy way to ignore the storm and my leak anxiety and pass along a little personal experience but I find it has led me to something I have been thinking about and struggling with in the last few weeks (oh who am I kidding, the last year). Yesterday marked a year since I finished my PhD. A year gone, with nothing much to show for it except two new titles (with accompanying paperwork) and few more recipes and a few less pounds.
In my worst days on the circus, days when I only went a few hours without crying, days when I was wet and cold and out-of-range and truly on my own, I found the strength to keep driving and showing up every morning to a new lot and a new day knowing full well that it was going to be another day full of tears and doubt and, inevitably, mud. I remember two days in particular that presented me with an easy opportunity to turn off the route and head back to Cleveland and a flight home. But I didn't. I kept showing up and it turned into one of the best experiences of my life.
At the risk of cueing a music swell in the background, it's time to start showing up again.
In case you're wondering, I didn't find any leaks in the house (not surprising) but wouldn't it have been a great end to the story if I did? Living and learning and all that? Oh well, maybe in the movie I do. Because, let's be honest, we all imagine our life could be a movie one day, right?

Hinkley Point C is a once-in-a-lifetime project. We need Contract Managers to make it happen.
Hinkley Point C is the first project of its kind in a generation. Over ten years, EDF Energy will build the first new nuclear power station in the United Kingdom since 1995. One of the largest construction projects in Europe, the new station will, ultimately, secure low-carbon electricity for six-million homes in the UK, and avoid ten-million tonnes of CO2 emissions each year.
To make this happen HPC will involve the procurement, management and integration of over 160 contracts of varying degrees of complexity, involving a diverse international supply chain. Put simply, it's a project of staggering scale, with unique challenges, and – for the right candidates – an opportunity to embark on a career-defining experience.
EDF Energy Contract Managers
To make Hinkley Point C happen, we need Contract Managers. You will manage the high-volume of complex commercial contracts covering everything from civil engineering, process plants and services contracts. The other major infrastructure projects in the UK are civil engineering projects, and follow the blueprint of what came before them. Not us. Hinkley Point C is unique: it needs to span across a range of industries and disciplines to make it happen.
It's for this reason that we need people with tenacity. Individuals that get excited by the scale and complexity of the challenge ahead of us, with the courage to embark on this fantastic journey. People with the drive and desire needed to alter the landscape of UK energy. If you are CIPS accredited and/or have knowledge of working on an NEC Framework Agreement, you'll find yourself in good company: building a project this complex and prestigious needs a team that is professional, collaborative and totally committed to the task at hand. Together, you'll work to build a legacy that stands the test of time.
Training at EDF Energy
Hinkley Point C is about investment. That's why we'll make sure you are fully trained on the systems and processes, on domestic and international contracts from open to close. You'll have an ongoing training and development plan, and we'll support you in attaining professional qualifications. We're shaping the future of UK energy – and we want you to grow with us.

Avon Science Fiction Reader was a US Digest-size magazine, published by Avon Books, edited by Donald A Wollheim,
and as with its companion series, Avon Fantasy Reader treated by Wollheim as an Anthology series.
It had a policy similar to that of its
companion, but featured sf mostly of routine pulp quality rather than fantasy reprints. There were three issues,
two in 1951 and one in 1952. Both magazines were terminated when Wollheim left Avon Books in 1952 and were superseded
by Avon Science Fiction and Fantasy Reader.

In 1982 the line was relaunched in a 3.75-inch (9.5 centimeters) range total with automobiles, playsets, and an intricate background tale including a continuous battle in between the G.I. Joe Group and the evil Cobra Command which seeks to take over the Free Globe with terrorism. As the American line advanced right into the Real American Hero collection, Activity Male also altered, by using the same molds and also being renamed as Activity Force. Although the members of the G.I. Joe group are not superheroes, they all had experience in areas such as martial arts, tools, as well as explosives.A Genuine American Hero (1982â =1994) [edit] Main short article: G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero The year 1982 saw the extremely successful relaunch of the G.I. Joe line of product ina smaller sized, 3.75-inch (9.5 centimeters) scale. The range coincided scale utilized by the Kennerâ =s Star Wars figures, yet with much more points of expression much like the 1970s Megoâ =s Micronauts toy line which itself was licensed straight from Takaraâ =s Microman toy line. This relaunch originated numerous techniques in plaything advertising, combining traditional advertising and marketing with a computer animated tv mini-series and a recurring comic book. The decision to make use of a smaller 3.75-inch (9.5 centimeters) scale for the numbers also madeit feasible for Hasbro to produce a selection of matching automobiles as well as playsets that better increased the allure and also industrial potential of the line.
G.I. Joe's boosting popularity sustained an array of spin-off retailing that included posters, tee shirts, video games, parlor game, and also kites. In 1985, both Plaything & Light and Pastime Globe publications placed G.I. Joe as the top-selling American toy.The 3.75-inch (9.5 cm) line was canceled at the end of 1994. This was additionally the 30th Wedding anniversary of G.I. Joe and as necessary, Hasbro launched a collection of 12-inch (30 centimeters) and 3.75-inch (9.5 cm) figures based upon the Original Activity Group figures from 1964. In the 1980s, the U.S. political environment altered and also as army playthings gained in popularity, the G.I. Joe line was relaunched with considerably revamped actions numbers that now stood just 3 3/4 inches high. The brand-new dimension that was motivated by the success of recent Celebrity Wars figures, but may additionally have reflected the ongoing impacts of the OPEC oil embargo of the 1970s, which raised the costs of plastic. Whereas the original Joes were generic depictions of the American armed forces, these later variations were highly specialized antiterrorist commandos total with their own unique code names, intricate back tales, andunique personalities, which were created with the assistance of Wonder Comic books.
As well as for the very first time, G.I. Joe was likewise given a certain opponent to combat: the worldwide terrorist organization COBRA. Along with the brand-new numbers, an animation collection was launched in 1983 as part of a smart advertising and marketing campaign. The animation was enabled many thanks to government deregulation throughout the administration of President Reagan that caused brand-new regulations for childrenâ =s tv programs. â =G.I. Joe: An All American Heroâ was one of the first animes to take advantage of these brand-new guidelines, which allowed the FCC to air fierce battle cartoons including toy items as the main characters. The strategyworked. The National Union on Tv Violence reported a 350% rise in the sale of war toys between 1982-1985 â = no question largely as a result of the cross-system success of G.I. Joe.

A great deal of controversy surrounds the management of sex offenders. Moral outrage and fear on the part of the public have set the stage for the growth of strict laws, restrictive policies, and severe sentences for sex offenders. The monitoring and supervision of this population is particularly important because of the irrefutable harm that sexual victimization causes and the potentially volatile community responses to the release of sex offenders.
The purpose of this evaluation is to determine the effectiveness of the global positioning system (GPS) monitoring of high-risk sex offenders (HRSOs) who are placed on parole. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) began using GPS to monitor sex offenders in June 2005 when CDCR implemented a 2-year pilot program using a 500-unit system to monitor and track the movement of HRSO parolees. In November 2006 with the passage of California Proposition 83, better known as Jessica's Law, the state mandated that all sex offenders be placed on GPS supervision for life and that CDCR parole agents be responsible for enforcing the terms and conditions while a parolee is under the state's jurisdiction.
This study integrates both outcome and process evaluation components. The outcome component assesses the impact of the CDCR GPS supervision program by employing a nonequivalent-group quasi-experimental design with a multilevel survival model. In addition, a propensity score matching procedure was used to account for the differences between the treatment and comparison groups. The sample includes 516 subjects equally divided between the treatment and control groups.
The subjects in the GPS group demonstrate significantly better outcomes. In terms of compliance, the multivariate model shows that the hazard ratio of a sex-related violation is nearly three times as great for the subjects who received traditional parole supervision as for the subjects who received the GPS supervision. In terms of recidivism, compared with the subjects who received the GPS monitoring supervision, the hazard ratio for any arrest was more than twice as high among the subjects who received traditional parole supervision.
The cost of GPS program is roughly $8.51 per day per parolee more expensive than traditional supervision. However, the outcome results favored the GPS group in terms of both compliance and recidivism. In other words, the GPS monitoring program is more expensive but more effective.
The GPS program was implemented with a high degree of fidelity.
The final report is available at https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/grants/238481.pdf.
The impetus for this project occurred in July 2005 when the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) began a pilot program in San Diego to test the use of global positioning system (GPS) technology to monitor high-risk sex offenders on parole. The success of this pilot project prompted CDCR to enter into a partnership with the city of San Bernardino to implement a similar project to track the movements of known gang members. In May 2007, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger proposed an antigang initiative—known as the California Gang Reduction, Intervention, and Prevention (CalGRIP) program—to provide more than $48 million in State and Federal funding for local antigang efforts, including job training, education, and intervention programs. CalGRIP expanded the 20-unit CDCR pilot program in San Bernardino to an 80-unit program by adding 20 units each in Sacramento, Fresno, and Los Angeles. The program was further expanded in 2008 by doubling the capacity to 160 units through the addition of 60 units in Riverside and 20 units in Los Angeles County.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact, fidelity, and costs of the CDCR GPS program, including its effectiveness both as a strategy for reducing recidivism and as an investigative and prosecutorial tool. The study proposes a nonequivalent-group, quasi-experimental design with multilevel modeling. The treatment group includes all high-risk gang offenders (HRGOs) placed on the GPS monitoring technology in each of six specialized gang units in San Bernardino, Sacramento, Fresno, Riverside, the city of Los Angeles, and Los Angeles County from March 2006 (the program start date) through the study start date (December 2009). The comparison group is constructed with data from CDCR tracking systems to create a pool of gang offender parolees from each of the six areas that have not been placed on the GPS monitoring technology. The study population is conservatively estimated to be 714 (357 treatment and 357 comparison parolees). A propensity score is being used to estimate the probability of assignment to the treatment group from several pretreatment characteristics selected a priori to present a broad spectrum of pretreatment risk factors.
Five primary data sources are accessed to measure variables:
This data is being collected through a variety of methods including the extraction of data from the California Department of Justice data management systems and GPS vendors as well as site visits and record reviews. The hard copy of all subject-related data (e.g., RAP sheets, data collection forms, and staff interview transcripts) is being stored in a locked file cabinet located in a private location. The electronic data is stored in a central evaluation data repository located on a partitioned drive permitting only project researchers who have signed confidentiality forms to access the data.
The study is evaluating the impact of the GPS monitoring of HRGOs using a quasi-experimental design that features a propensity score to model the selection process. It is hypothesized that the GPS technology will deter parolees from engaging in future criminal behavior because it increases the probability of detection, encourages parolees to be more compliant, serves law enforcement in investigating a reported crime, and supports prosecutors in building a case by providing stronger evidence.
The outcome measures include a) recidivism, b) compliance, and c) effectiveness as an investigative and prosecutorial tool. The central feature of the analysis uses survival analysis to model all time-to-event data.

A weird platformer about what happens when you drink expired milk.
You are Jake, a common teenager. You accidentally drank some expired milk, which resulted in hallucinations (yes, I know expired milk doesn't do that in real life). This game was inspired by a Knytt Stories map "Don't Eat the Mushroom" by UncleSporky.
- Silly environments!
- Time and death tracking! Try to finish the game as quickly as possible, with as little deaths as possible!
- Checkpoints (so you don't have to start over if you mess up)!
- A few ridiculous ways to die!

Review: Beirut, 'The Rip Tide'
Review: Beirut, 'The Rip Tide': Aidin Vaziri | For Beirut's first full-length album in four years, songwriter Zach Condon, above, wanted to keep things simple. Although simplicity is relative for a 25-year-old musician from New Mexico known for stuffing his swooning indie folk songs with funeral mariachi horns, French chansons and Eastern European rhythms. If anything, in "The Rip Tide," Condon sounds more self-aware, toning down the far-reaching vision of his outfit's breakthrough album, 2006's "Gulag Orkestar," in favor of inward-looking numbers such as the mournful "Payne's Bay" and low-key "Port of Call." In the anxious "Vagabond," he sings, "As the air goes cold/ The trees unfold/ And I am lost." But growing up doesn't mean getting old, and Condon still manages to conjure his magic through finely detailed songs and lovely poetry, even when it feels as if all he wants is a good hug.

Story time at our house usually includes one very important book- Elli The Little Pennsylvania Elk. I can't find a link to buy it online, so if you want it you may have to visit the PA elk herd in North Central PA and buy your copy there!
This book is really great because a two-year-old can really relate to the cute characters. My daughter even recently cried during the part when Elli had to leave her mom. It is also great, however, because it teaches her about native animals and climate patterns in Pennsylvania. She loves this book, and it is one I never discourage her from reading. I encourage you to take the time to drive up north and see this amazing herd of elk. The visitor's center has an awesome "4D" movie with "snow" that even falls down on your head. Plus, you can ride a horse drawn carriage out into the forest to view the elk. While you're there, pick up this book. You won't regret it!
