Runaway Pumpkin Recap
Today at four months postpartum, I ran an 8k. This isn't a huge distance; just under five miles. I set a goal for myself to do it in under ten-minute miles, and a secondary goal to do it in under an hour. I was ambitious about getting into shape after having Elise and determined to run a manageable race to do it.
I ran the Runaway Pumpkin Half Marathon and 8K. The course is flat, beautiful and I love the small-town, local feel. The weather today was awful – rainy, windy, wet. I am such a clueless runner still and had no idea what to wear. Ha. I usually look to my awesome runner husband for advice, but he wears a tank-top and shorts unless it's snowing. *eye-roll*
Around the half-way point (mile 2.5), I was so tempted to stop and walk. I knew that if I walked that early in the race however, I would have a really hard time running the rest of the way. I found myself thanking God for every step I took, and asking him for the next one. (Guys, this is kind of embarrassing to admit because this is not that long of a distance – but I am still pretty out of shape.)
When I got to the point where there was about .5 miles left, I gave myself a .1 mile walk-break, and ran as hard as I could the rest of the way.
I wish I was talented at taking pictures while running, because right as I was about to finish, there was a race sign sponsored by a local funeral home that said "The end is near" and had a grim reaper standing next to it. I'm not sure whether this is genius or super insensitive, but either way, seeing that kicked my butt into high gear. I saw Dan (who had already finished the half-marathon at that point) and wanted to make him proud. I sprinted to the end and finished strong.
I finished in 52 minutes – which was over ten minute miles, but under an hour. So, I met my secondary goal. As soon as I crossed the finish line, I had an overwhelming urge to cry. (I didn't because I wasn't wearing sunglasses and nobody wants to see me sweaty and ugly-crying) I don't know if I wanted to cry because I was proud of myself for finishing, or because I didn't meet my first goal. It was a weird mash-up of emotions.
My mind automatically shot to all of the reasons I didn't do as well as I wanted. I do this a lot. In running, parenting, marriage, my outfit choice. But the reality is, nobody cared. Especially in this instance. My husband was proud of me, my friends congratulated me and at four months postpartum, I got out there and ran.
I may have not wanted to move the rest of the day, and ate tons of sweets to balance it out, but I ran.
So often, I find myself wanting to make excuses for why things aren't "as good" as they could be. Even when something is great, I think "well, if I had more money, my house would be cuter." Or, "if I was more patient, my kids would be more well-behaved", "if I got more than two hours of uninterrupted sleep, that race would have felt a lot better."
While all of those things are true, it doesn't negate the fact that what I did, what I have, what I am blessed with is still so good.
So today, I decided to celebrate myself. I gave myself a pat on the back for running slower than I wanted, because I ran. I indulged, and had fellowship with friends later that day, and even though the Ducks lost (again) I enjoyed myself.
Have you started exercising or running again after having a baby? How did it go? I'd love to hear in the comments below!

Calum Turvey notes that the rural credit financial delivery system in China is a blend of capitalistic, market-oriented finance and social responsibility. Under current reforms, many Rural Credit Cooperatives are converting to joint stock Rural Commercial Banks and, in the process of maximizing shareholder value, are in many instances reducing lending to farm households. Recent reforms now permit village and township banks, branches of city banks, micro-credit companies, and lending-only companies to make loans in rural areas.
But, Turvey tells us, increasing the overall supply of credit to rural areas does not necessarily imply an increase in the supply of credit to production agriculture or agriculturally-related businesses. Indeed, there are many townships throughout China that still have no or limited access to formal credit. Despite financial innovations and reforms in China, therefore, the country still faces an ever-widening gap in urban-rural incomes. Deepening the financial markets has not resulted in the requisite spillover effects to reverse income inequality that economic theory predicts.
What is more, the problems of income, capital, and productive inequality are directly related to China's broader goals of urbanization, increased commercialization of agriculture, and the development and streamlining of agricultural supply and value chains to meet domestic and global food demand. And the credit challenges facing China are daunting—with credit demand required at the intensive margin to increase productivity per unit of land, and at the extensive margin to meet the demands of farm size expansion and agribusiness development.
Turvey frames the problem facing China this way: With about 250 million farm households representing about 750 million persons, the amount of capital required to achieve wins in all of these policy goals is substantially greater than the amount that China's commercialized credit system is able, or indeed willing, to provide.
In that context, Turvey's memorandum explores whether the genesis of rural credit as currently taking place in China is healthy for agriculture and rural lending. An uncoordinated system of costly rural credit delivery, he predicts, will likely be unattractive to many financial institutions and thus may prove to be a hindrance to the development of the formal financial sector as a whole. Meanwhile, uncoordinated agricultural lending can lead to technical and allocation inefficiencies that can only exacerbate the problems that current Chinese policy is attempting to resolve.
Turvey proposes a few ideas that would, in effect, mean redesigning China's agricultural credit system wholesale. For one, he calls on China to consider a nationally coordinated approach to delivery of agricultural credit, as is found with the American Farm Credit System or Canadian Farm Credit Corporation and government-supported credit elsewhere. While acknowledging the very real political and economic sensitivities and difficulties, his memo argues for a new enterprise for sourcing, coordinating, and distributing agricultural credit, drawing in part off the experience of the "Nong Ben Ju"—a program from the Republican era of China's mid-1930s.
Ultimately, what Turvey's memorandum recommends is that the current network of Rural Credit Cooperatives and other agricultural financial institutions across China be nested under a single umbrella. This, he says, is not to suggest that the nature of these institutions should change in terms of structure and governance nor that the cooperative standard or the bank standard be altered from its present course. But the Chinese system, he concludes, must not be so rigid that it prevents innovations that are effective in one region from reaching other areas. And the rules that bind financial institutions at the provincial level need to be relaxed so that the same set of regulations holds for all.

Campus and premises
Campus plan
Lund University's campus plan was completed in 2012. The campus plan is a planning instrument for the next 15-year period, perhaps even longer. It contributes to creating a common approach and gets various intra-University parties and outside agents and stakeholders to work on the basis of a shared vision.
The campus plan contains strategies for continued expansion with plans for new University buildings, services and housing.
The purpose of the campus plan is, through long term and future-oriented planning, to preserve and increase Lund University's competitiveness. The University is to attract and stimulate future students by offering attractive and excellent academic environments. The University is to attract employees through work and research environments that are stimulating, efficient and full of character. The physical environment is to contribute to improved results and to facilitate collaboration within the University and between the University and external cooperation partners.
The campus plan expresses Lund University's ambition to be one of the strong international universities in Europe. It describes the University's physical development strategies, but also the quality of life which exists outside the actual core activities of the University.
Lund University has produced the campus plan in cooperation with property owner Akademiska Hus and the City of Lund.

Premises plan 2018-2019
The premises plan for 2018–2019 covers both the development of premises so far and the premises needs which are in the process of being met or investigated. The premises plan is a description of the status and impact of the tasks that each faculty or organisation has assigned to LU Estates.
Projects taken up in the premises plan are placed in one of three categories:
- Projects which have been decided, i.e. there is a decision on implementation (the entire cost has been financed)
- Projects which have been initiated, i.e. there is a decision on investigation (the cost of the investigation and/or the projection costs have been financed)
- Projects which are under investigation in the "pipeline" (no decisions on financing have been taken)
Within categories 2 and 3 in particular, changes will take place rapidly over time. For several of these projects, there are no rental estimates. Preliminary rent levels are provided anyway in several cases. They are based on previous experiences from similar projects. Likewise, the timetables for these categories are not definite and should be seen as the shortest possible duration predicted for these projects. The plan will be complemented with a premises provision plan which is updated annually.

TSF Lecture at Art League of Long Island
by Debbie Wells
In recognition of Women's History Month, the Art League of Long Island (ALLI) presented a lecture, "Honoring the Women of the Historic Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire of 1911" in a unique way by having two speakers, both artists, describe their personal connections to this important part of American history. As the Chair of the Board of Directors of ALLI, I arranged for this dual lecture as a way of portraying my personal experience of researching the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory (TSF) tragedy and also reckoning with it as a subject for art.
About the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire of 1911
The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory was a company of over 500 employees (mostly hardworking young Jewish and Italian immigrant women) located in the heart of Greenwich Village, right near Washington Square Park. In typical sweatshop conditions, this company produced crisp "Gibson Girl" style blouses that were then the rage. The building, restored to its original glory, is now part of the New York University campus, but has a plaque commemorating its history that every American child learns about in school.
What happened was this: On March 25, 1911, a fire broke out on the TSF 8th floor at the end of the workday. Chaos ensued. It is contended that the doors were locked. There were certainly many fire hazards inside. People on the street witnessed helplessly as workers jumped out of windows to escape the flames. Fire trucks were ill equipped, lacking ladders high enough to reach the upper floors. Elevators ran as long as they could as workers pressed into
the cars, while some tumbled down the elevator shaft. All of this happened in only 18 minutes. In the end, 146 people died. Shortly after, there was a trial, but the two owners, known as the "Shirtwaist Kings", were acquitted of wrongdoing, arousing the cry of injustice from the public. However, the lives of these workers were not sacrificed in vain because the tragedy impelled change in America – the rise of the labor union movement and fire safety regulations.
Uncovering My Family History and the Connection to the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory
About 12 years ago, my son was doing his American History homework and mentioned that he was learning about the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. My grandmother-in-law, Anne Nicholas-Lerman, was visiting from Florida and explained that her aunt was one of the 146 victims. The whole family immediately wanted to know more. Then she showed us a beautiful photograph of 18-year old Annie Nicholas, who was a button-maker at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory. My son has the framed picture in his bedroom and we all treasure this family heirloom.
The 100th Anniversary of the fire, in 2011, prompted me to delve deeper into the life of Annie Nicholas via the internet. As I googled for more information, I came across the on-line archives of Cornell University's Industrial and Labor Relations School's Kheel Center. Why were these Ivy League scholars interested in the fire? It made sense because TSF was the catalyst for the development of unions and regulated working conditions. When I contacted someone there, she was thrilled that I was willing to donate a copy of Annie's photograph for their archives and immediately posted it on-line.
I was then referred to TSF historian and journalist Michael Hirsch, who had created an HBO documentary and written articles in the New York Times about his continuing research on TSF. Not only did he invite my family to participate in the 100th Anniversary Celebration and Parade at the original site on March 25th, but he also informed me that my husband's grandmother is the oldest living descendant of any TSF victim. We did attend the ceremony and it was very exciting to be in the first row with thousands of people behind us and listen to several political dignitaries, including the US Secretary of Labor, State Senators and the Mayor of New York City, speak about the importance of the TSF event and how it has affects on our society even today.
Later, I decided to create a lecture so I could share my perspective and family history. One of the most interesting anecdotes is "The Story of the Scissors". I told Michael Hirsch the family legend that Annie had first escaped the fire and then ran back to get her scissors because they were so important to her livelihood. Rather than be touched by the tale, he explained to me that this type of family lore was typical and unrealistic. Based on his research of police and fire accounts and studies of floors plans and more, he had concluded that every tale of a worker running back was just a story that parents had created to ease their suffering and belief that their girls had not died in vain. He told me that he had heard many reports like mine, except people went back for sisters, rings, friends, etc. I carefully told Grandmother Anne this fact, but because she was 97 at the time, I was afraid to upset her, to think that her life-long story was probably not true. Her answer was endearing, "Well, maybe that was true for everyone else, but my parents would never have lied to me." Later, she agreed that Michael Hirsch was most likely correct, but rewriting the family history in one's head is no easy task.
Collaboration with an Artist
How I met the other speaker, Jennifer Merz, is a story in itself. On my way to one of our Artful Circle gallery tours, I stopped at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) Museum to view their latest exhibit. I encountered her beautiful collages inspired by TSF. Since I had discovered that my husband's relative was one of the TSF victims, this subject was of special interest. I did not realize at first that this would be a topic of interest to fashion design students, but TSF was not just part of immigrant struggles and labor union history, it is also a crucial episode in the narrative of the garment industry.
Inspired by the events of the fire, professional artist and children's book author/illustrator, Jennifer Merz created a 32-page non-fiction picture book called SEW STRONG: The Legacy of the Triangle Factory Fire." She artfully composed cut and torn paper, photos, lace, fabrics and trims to create collage illustrations to portray Triangle's story. Examples of her work on this project and her published children's books can be seen on her website, www.jennifermerz.com.
"You Never Came Back" by Jennifer Merz
I contacted Jennifer and explained why I was interested in her work. She replied and we agreed to meet and compare our research methods and results. We discovered that my mission was a personal journey, while she was using the TSF as a subject for an illustrated book. Independently, we both realized that we were moved by the story, yet expressed our findings so differently.
Presenting Our Lecture at the Art League of Long Island
(L-R) Jennifer Merz and Debbie Wells, Speakers
Although our Artful Circle lectures always showcase an art theme, this lecture is unusual and especially close to my heart. Turning this aspect of family history into a presentation and sharing it has proved to be very rewarding. In addition to the personal satisfaction, it was fascinating for me to collaborate with another artist who interpreted history in a creative and meaningful way.

Considering Jesus Challenge
Hallelujah Day!
Revelation 21:5-7
Day 26, January 26, 2013, Saturday:
"And He who sits on the throne said, 'Behold, I am making all things new.' And He said, 'Write, for these words are faithful and true.' Then He said to me, 'It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to the one who thirsts from the spring of the water of life without cost. He who overcomes will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be My son.'" Revelation 2:5-7
"I am making all things new…"
Why is Jesus making all things new? If you bump back up to verse 4 that we looked at yesterday, you'll see that he's making all things new because the first things have passed away.
What were those first things?
Death, mourning, crying, and pain.
All those things that caused me distress in yesterday's passage, Jesus will take away and make new. First he will wipe my tears away, and then he will re-create everything and make it new. The old things, the first things, have passed away.
Hallelujah Day!
As I thought about that this morning, the verses about old things passing away and new things taking their place bubbled to the surface and I started to see something new.
Revelation 21:1 "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea."
Revelation 21:4 "And He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away."
2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature, the old things passed away, behold, new things have come."
Psalm 37:36 "Then he passed away, and lo, he was no more; I sought for him, but he could not be found."
When someone dies we often use the euphemism "passed away" instead of simply saying he died. I have never liked the phrase because it feels like I am denying that someone I love has died. It seems as if I am not willing to admit the hard reality that I won't ever see them again.
I think I've missed something.
Could it be that the origin of the phrase, "passed away," comes from Scripture itself? Is it also possible that there is hope hidden in the expression and not denial?
When Revelation 21:4 says that death, mourning, crying, and pain have all "passed away" it sets the stage for what is to come. What is to come is in the very next verse – Jesus is making all things new! So, "new" things can't come until the old is gone, until it has passed away.
1 Thessalonians 4:13 "But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope."
Jesus wants us to have hope as we walk through the trials this life throws at us. He never wants us to feel unhinged or forgotten in the midst of our suffering. Jesus "is making" all things new. This is not a vague promise for some random end of the age time period; it's his current activity on our behalf. Jesus is making all things new – present tense. We can have hope for what we're facing now, as well as, have hope for those who have died in Christ.
He is making all things new, and there will come a time when he is finished with that process.
Revelation 21:6 "Then He said to me, 'It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to the one who thirsts from the spring of the water of life without cost."
"It is done," the verse says. It makes me think of Jesus' words on the cross in John 19:30 when he said, "It is finished!"
In the beginning – Alpha
It is finished – Omega
Completion. Old things have passed away and new things have come.
Okay, Lord Jesus, bring it on; bring on the new!

Visitor Reviews of Coumfea West (Comeragh Mts)
Waterford's Mountains from Ireland writes:
At the height of the Celtic Tiger many people started going on ski holidays to the big resorts in mainland Europe.This combined with the arrival of German supermarket chains Lidl and Aldi who brought basic snowboards and ski gear at a much reduced price led to an increase in the popularity of snowsports in Ireland. Now the Celtic Tiger era is but a distant memory and most people have had to drop the Winter Ski Holiday so much ski gear is lying redundant in Irish homes. However, don't despair, Ireland's winters have started to get colder and at times like these the mountains are beginning to gain popularity as much of this largely redundant ski gear is getting tested out on Irish mountain slopes. It is a frustrating game in Ireland waiting for snow but when it does happen Irish mountain slopes undergo a beautiful metamorphosis which is being recognised by an ever growing band of enthusiasts who thought outside the box. Proof of this has begun to emerge with the production of great ski and snowboard videos from the East Coast and South East mountain ranges combined with a massive vote of confidence by Snow-Forecast.com who have entered into the domestic Irish scene. All is looking good for the future what is needed in order for this to continue is plenty more cold spells during the winter months.
Finally to sum everything up; the proximity of the Comeragh's, Monavullagh's and Knockmealdown's to the major cities of Waterford, Cork and Limerick all within one hours drive plus other urban areas like Clonmel,Youghal and Dungarvan only minutes away and not forgetting Tramore with it's great surfing tradition coupled with an active urban skate scene the best is yet to come!

Vienna sits at a relatively northern latitude compared to what we were used to at home (similar to southern Maine, rather than northern Virginia, where we're from). We get more daylight at the height of summer (over an hour more) and less daylight in the middle of winter (over an hour less). In the summer, our earliest sunrise is before 5:00 a.m., and our earliest sunset in the winter is at 4:00 p.m., and the sun sets as late as 9:00 in summer and doesn't come up until almost 8:00 in the morning in the winter. It's definitely a change.
But also, with the maximum and minimums being more extreme than at home, the rate at which the amount of daylight changes can be pretty shocking. We lose about a minute more daylight per day than we did at home right now, and during this part of the year, we lose more light per day than any other time.
We noticed it last year, too, but right now, we're being particularly thrown off by it. We went on vacation, for just 2 1/2 weeks, and everything changed while we were gone. Before our trip, it was light until about 8 in the evening, but now that we're back, I have all the lights in the house on before Dan gets home from work and it's nearly dark by the time we sit down to dinner.
The other night, I went out for my first coffee hour since we'd been back. Before we left for the UK, I was getting home while it was still light out — but this time, when I left to go out it was already almost dark.
We're still on the advantageous side of the daylight though — we are still getting a few more minutes per day than they are back at home, but only for a few more days. Starting Monday, we get less light per day than we would have at home, and on Tuesday, we start to spend more of our day in the dark than in the light.

Invest in BrazilMember Since : 2012 | Brazil
We are a well-known Livestock Supplier in Brazil. Over the next decade and beyond, Brazil will rely heavily on the clearing of tropical forests for the expansion of Livestock range land. Annual deforestation in Brazil is estimated at over 3 million hectares (ha). Cattle ranching represent 80% of deforestation in the Amazon. The land area of cattle ranching is so vast in the Brazilian Amazon that with just a moderate level of intensification, whereby cattle densities increase to just over two cows per ha; an area the size of California could be saved from future deforestation. This could provide a total annual mitigation potential of 0.9 gt co2e year, or a total mitigation potential of 6.5 gt co2e by 2018. To accomplish this, an estimated $21.5 billion dollars of capital is required. The period of return on investment is approximately four and a half years, due to increased meat production.

Graphics Software installing Problem in Laptop
I have download a trial copy of adobe illustrator. It's not installing.But my Laptop has the all requirements.What can I do regards this problem?
I have download a trial copy of adobe illustrator. It's not installing.But my Laptop has the all requirements.What can I do regards this problem?
A graphics driver is a piece of software that tells your video card hardware how to function. In Laptop PC manufacturer that my use a variety of different video cards in its laptop machines. Laptop manufacturers often integrate the video card into the system board. Integrated graphics or onboard graphics don't produce the same quality of video as do separate graphics adapters, but are comparatively much cheaper. Outdated or corrupt graphics drivers can cause a system to exhibit graphics failure. The operating system communicates with the graphics adapter through its driver. Updating the drivers can repair display errors.
If you say your computer already met all the system requirements of Adobe Illustrator then it is probably a problem with the installer you downloaded. This is very common especially if the installer was acquired from a different website and not from the software's official home page. To make sure your installer works, visit your product's home page.
I'm not sure what version of Adobe Illustrator you have but its worth to try downloading and installing Adobe Illustrator CC. This version doesn't require a fast processor and will even work on a Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64 processor. Another thing about the installer you downloaded, I'm not sure if you have already checked but processors have variations between 32-bit and 64-bit.
Like with Adobe Illustrator CC, it will not run if your processor is 32-bit. It will only work if your computer is running on a 64-bit processor so you need to check if the problem is in the version or architecture of your processor. Adobe Illustrator CC works on Windows 7 Service Pack 1, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1.
For Mac users, it runs on Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, 10.7 Lion, 10.8 Mountain Lion, and 10.9 Mavericks.

Thugs: Incident 4785
HOW many times does this shit have to happen, before we realize that something just isn't right?
A disabled former Parks Department enforcement officer has filed a complaint against cops who he says snatched him off his toilet and dragged him out of his apartment. Dominick Walters, 38, said he and his elderly mother feared for their lives when six city cops busted into their home on July 28 and arrested him. "I was on the toilet, and they busted through the door," said Walters. "My mother was screaming and trying to tell them that I am disabled, but they didn't listen," he continued. "One of the police officers karate-chopped me with his hand between my shoulder and neck. Then they beat my a-- from the top of the steps to the bottom."
Just to recap, the thugs broke into the house of a handicapped man, and beat the shit out of him. He has not been charged with any crime.
Seriously, what the fuck.

Against the easy assurance of a too-enculturated religion, Walter Brueggemann refocuses the preaching task around the decentering, destabilizing, always risky word that confronts us in Scripture—if we have the courage to hear. These powerful essays, previously available only in journals, are here combined with a newly composed preface and introduction. Includes a foreword from the Reverend William H. Willimon.
Delve deeper into your Old Testament studies with the Fortress Press Hebrew Bible Collection.
In the Logos edition, this volume is enhanced by amazing functionality. Important terms link to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library. Perform powerful searches to find exactly what you're looking for. Take the discussion with you using tablet and mobile apps. With Logos Bible Software, the most efficient and comprehensive research tools are in one place, so you get the most out of your study.
Brueggemann provokes an emergency and shames an accommodated, culture-bound, tamed, therapeutic church with his fecund prophetic re-descriptions and creative transpositions that speak the biblical word into our time and place. Unintimidated by the disestablishment of the American Protestant church, he always hears something for us to say that the world is literally dying to hear. He thus gives testimony to a ceaselessly interesting God who speaks, reveals, and discloses, a God who is accurately known only through God's Word, only through a gaggle of Spirit-filled, evangelical preachers whom the Word has made militant.
—William H. Willimon, from the Foreword
Walter Brueggemann (ThD, Union Seminary, New York; PhD, St. Louis University) is William Marcellus McPheeters Professor of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary, Decatur, Georgia. He was previously professor of Old Testament at Eden Theological Seminary, St. Louis. He is the author of many books, including The Threat of Life: Sermons on Pain, Power, and Weakness.

Coldplay have announced their smallest show in years, and it's all in the name of charity.
According to Digital Spy, "The band are the last act on the line-up for War Child's Passport to Brits Week, and will take to the stage at The O2's indigo on February 24th, the same night as their Brit Awards performance.
The 2,350 capacity venue is significantly more intimate than the four nights at Wembley Stadium they'll play for their UK tour in June.
Tickets are £75 and go on sale at 9am on Monday (February 8). Alternatively fans can donate £4.50 to enter a prize draw.
All money raised from tickets will go towards helping children across the Middle East and Africa living with the effects of war.
"We're delighted to play this special show for War Child to raise funds for their crucial work with children dealing with the aftermath of conflict," said Coldplay.
Jamie xx, Florence + the Machine, Bloc Party and Bring Me the Horizon are among the other artists playing War Child shows for Brits Week."
I would LOVE to see Coldplay live! This would be such a great opportunity.

Despite intense saber rattling between the US and North Korea, experts told Business Insider that all intelligence coming from the Hermit Kingdom indicates it's not getting ready for war and that doing so would be catastrophic for it.
"Yes there's a lot of statements going back and forth that are escalating tensions, but in the real world on the ground in North Korea, and I suspect in South Korea, life goes on," Joel Wit, a senior fellow at US-Korea Institute who previously worked on North Korea policy at the State Department, said on a call with reporters organized by 38 North.
Wit said satellite imagery of North Korea just wasn't showing the drumbeat of war playing out for normal citizens. Foreigners haven't fled. Workers haven't been pulled from factories, and even the media remains calm and focused on the economy.
Additionally, though North Korean leader Kim Jong Un may posture as though he's ready to fight within hours, the timing is particularly difficult for him.
"We're now entering the season in North Korea where we're going to see the starting of harvesting crops," Wit said. If North Korea had to go into defensive lockdown, he added, there would be a "serious impact on food collection, and then food distribution, then after that, food availability."
So Kim faces what appears to be a relatively easy choice: initiate a conflict he is sure to lose, and let his people starve, or continue with business as usual while maintaining his usual brash propaganda.

If you look back at great athletes over the years their love and passion for what they did allowed them to become remarkably great at their work. For 43 year-old Jay Zeballos, his passion for martial arts has not only lead him to many great achievements as a competitor but has also opened up the door to more financial opportunities and touch many people's lives along the way.

Getting More ROI from CRM
The trend for many years has been toward technology-based Customer Relationship Management Systems (CRMs) and yet research conducted by the Garner Group (see diagram below) has shown that the benefits a company can realize from any such innovation are dramatically higher when four vital components are in place together:
* Technology (CRMs for example),
* A clearly defined sales process,
* Training and personnel development
* Performance-related compensation.
For example, often companies will invest thousands of pounds in CRM technology, sales training and performance-related compensation packages for their salespeople, yet forget about defining the sales process. As a consequence the investment made in other areas cannot be maximized unless there is a process in place to underpin these three factors.
Equally, having a solid and robust sales process in place, efficient CRM technology, and an ongoing training program will not guarantee success if your sales team is poorly compensated and inadequately motivated by the lack of a bonus scheme.
But we do not just need to consider the sales teams, because it is now a widely accepted fact that you can't divorce the competence and performance of the salesforce from the competence and performance of the organization as a whole.
As an example, in a customer-focused organization, everyone is part of the sales process, which is why an organization's culture should breed collaboration and sharing of knowledge, so that every department works openly and efficiently together to support the overall sales process.
When a consultative sales process has been defined, sold to the sales force and supported by other departments within an organization, the stage is set for transformational performance improvements. Just like you need to put in a solid foundation when building a house, the sales process is the foundation for future sales success, but do remember -
"A sales process requires constant monitoring to ensure it is being properly implemented"

Hi all, tonight was my evening off but I have just returned to a field of sweaty children who look throughly puffed. The D.I.S.C.O is getting rave reviews from the boys who prior to the disco took all of 5 minutes to get changed. I made sure some of the boys showered tonight or tomorrow morning as some of those dorms are fairly whiffy. I gave one boys dorm a minus dorm point because their room smelt so bad – my reaction had one boy red faced with hysterics, I'm glad it made him giggle.
Today for coach 1 was The Battlefields and coach 2 had their tour of Rouen, we've been first into breakfast at 0730 every day this week which has made for some really prompt starts and we have truly got the most out of each day we have been here.
The Battlefields were great for coach 1 and as the first St Mary's year to do this, it felt like a real bonus. We had lunch in a field by one of the museums and I think I was getting a little bored/stir crazy when I suggested rubbish bag sculpting as an after lunch activity to make sure all lunch waste was kept in their bags and not blown away. See below for a picture of one child's effort at a bunny rabbit – maybe you had to be there.
We went to the wonderful monument at the Theipval memorial where children had to find the names of two soldiers on the monument to research at home, they really enjoyed going around the monument and I must have been told 50 times that they had a found a Powell on the inscriptions. It was all really pleasant and our guides ended with a minute's silence to remember the fallen.
In the gift shop at Thiepval, one boy asked me if he should save Euros for the market tomorrow; he asked me what there was to buy there and I said 'Oh just sunglasses, hats and jewellery.' Upon hearing jewellery this boy promptly said 'Can I get my nose pierced?' – this did make me chuckle.
Coach 2 had a their tour around Rouen and marvelled at the skeletons buried beneath Rouen's streets; the archaeological dig had clearly progressed since coach 1 went as now you could see skulls apparently. All children listened well and there are clearly some really keen historians in our group. They all seem to have such a wide knowledge base from the trips they do with their parents. They have been a credit to you.
This will be the last time I blog from France, keep an eye on Twitter for when we are back in the U.K and if there are any delays.
As ever, all children are happy and have had a really great week.
Mr Powell

So, we've chatted about how to tackle the shoebox apartment, but what about the other end of the spectrum? Working out how to mould your large spaces in an aesthetically-pleasing fashion can be just as tricky as dealing with cramped hidey-holes. After all, when you're given so many options for furniture choice and placement, you can start to feel a little overwhelmed.
Some of the most common mistakes amateur home decorators make when presented with a large space is the inability to create flow and focus, and instead, ending up with an awkward, clunky mish-mash. Thankfully, with open-plan homes being such a huge interior trend at the moment, expert designers have come up with plenty of tips and tricks to help you navigate your way around all that space in the most stylistic and functional ways possible. Let's take a look…
Divide your space up and create separate living zones
You've probably heard this one before, but it's incredibly important and should be approached in a strategic manner. Delegate your zones, leaving a gap of at least 800mm between each one, and then artistically mark them out using any of the following stylish elements:
Just remember – while you certainly want to give a sense of separate living zones, you don't want them to feel like entirely different countries! Ensure everything ties in: choose a colour theme and maintain it throughout, and echo your textures and styles in each zone.
Pull furniture off the walls and forge cosy arrangements in the centre of the room
In small spaces, you don't have much choice but to push your furniture up against the wall in order for your guests to actually move around the room. Large spaces, on the other hand, have much more fluidity and freedom, and can actually start to feel quite sterile and isolated when you shove everything up against the walls.
Instead, opt to group your furniture closer to the centre of the space according to each item's allocated zone. If you are working with a living area, leave room to walk around behind your sofas. If you're in the kitchen, try incorporating a beautiful timber island bench to break up the space. You can even employ this tactic in the bedroom: while traditionally, most bedheads are designed to be placed tight against the wall, large bedrooms allow you to get creative with multi-purpose bedheads where one side serves to support the bed and the other acts as a bookshelf or storage space.
It's important to note that when choosing to centre your furniture, you can't abandon your walls altogether. They still need a bit of lovin', so fill them up with striking artworks, such as a neat grid of framed prints, or install some elegant floating shelves.
Inject a sense of cosiness with the right décor
One of the biggest problems with open-plan spaces is the challenge to create that highly-coveted ambience that invites guests to relax and enjoy the environment. However, this needn't be the case. Occasional chairs are ideal in big spaces – simply position them in bare areas to create reading nooks (complete with an ottoman, if you wish), or pop a matching pair against a wall separated by a large mirror or piece of art. Additionally, you can fashion an intimate corner for two by erecting a small card table complete with elegant seating and mood candles.
We also suggest bringing some life into your open-plan space with tall potted house plants. These are especially handy in rooms with high ceilings, as they help to fill that vacant vertical space. Scatter these in lonely corners, or frame windows with matching greenery (this way, your plants are bound to receive substantial sunlight as well).
And there you have it - with just a few savvy styling secrets, you can craft an open-plan space that ticks all the right boxes.

The Lunar New Year or Chinese New Year falls on February, 16 this year. If you aren't familiar with this holiday and its importance to produce, now is the time to get up to speed! On the lunar calendar, this is the first day of the year. It is also arguably the most important day of the year—one that involves weeks of cleaning, preparation and, of course, celebration. So what does the Lunar New Year have to do with produce?
Citrus fruits play a big role during this holiday. Oranges, tangerines, kumquats, and pomelos are eaten, displayed in most households and given as gifts. It is believed the round shape and golden color of citrus fruits symbolize fullness and wealth. Eating and displaying tangerines and oranges is said to bring good luck and fortune due to their pronunciation and even the way they are spelled. The Chinese word for orange (and tangerine) is (chéng /chnng/), which sounds the same as the Chinese for 'success.' Eating pomelos is thought to bring continued prosperity—the more you eat more wealth it will bring!
Other than citrus there are several other produce items that play a big part in the foods that are eaten to celebrate the new year. Dumplings (jiaozi) are packed full of delicious fresh vegetables like cabbage, carrots, green onions, leeks, ginger and shiitake mushrooms. Although these vegetables are normally mixed with meat such as pork or shrimp, there is a large growing wave of vegetarians. Hodo Soy 5 Spice Tofu Nuggets would make a great meat substitute in these dumplings!
Spring Rolls (Chun Juan) are share many of the same ingredients as dumplings. They may also include mung bean sprouts and cilantro. These are prepared fried in thin hardy dough wrappers instead of boiled like the dumplings. Spring rolls also symbolize wealth and prosperity in the year to come.
Longevity Noodles (Changshou Mian) is a delicious simple dish. Changshou mian literaly means long life noodle. They represent the wish for a long, happy and healthy life. The noodles are often served with oyster sauce and fresh Asian inspired ingredients such as ginger, shiitake mushrooms and bok choy.
Lastly, there is the mustard green. Mustard greens, called "Chang Nian Cai" for the new year. They are commonly known as "jie cai" but the New Year's name of Chang Nian Cai means perennial vegetables. They are easy to prepare and a symbol for long life. The greens are generally sautéed and sometimes served with tofu skins.
This year the Lunar New Year falls on Friday, February 16th. Customers tend to shop for fresh produce three to four days before cooking. The week before, stock up your department with citrus items like: kumquats, tangerines, mandarins, pomelos, Buddha hand citron and oranges of all varieties.
On Monday the 12th, start stocking up on all the vegetables you need to make sure you have in ample supply: cabbages, bok choys, ginger, green onion, daikon, shiitakes mushrooms, cilantro, carrots, mung bean sprouts and maybe even the Hodo Soy 5 Spice Nuggets. Make sure to keep abundant fresh displays of greens like mustards, rapini, bok choys and green onions through the 16th.
Inspect product before putting out on display and hydrate if necessary. Cull away any yellowing or damaged leaves. Customers will be looking for the best and most fresh product for their holiday cooking. If you do not have an automatic misting system, make sure to spray the product often to keep it hydrated and attractive.
Other than making sure you have a wide variety of citrus in stock, it is also a good idea to have large bowls, gift boxes or baskets of citrus set around the store and department. This is a good way to promote citrus sales and inspire shoppers to recreate these displays in their homes.

The message behind CEO Doe Deere's piece for Entrepreneur makes a simple enough point. Doe, a Jewish girl that migrated from Russia and currently runs two North American companies, appreciates something very important that life-long citizens overlook; America! Her, her mother and sister simply appreciate America and what it has to offer. No politician or pundit can make America great in their eyes as it has always been great to them.
Long before Lime Crime Cosmetics or Poppyangeloff, Doe was a 17-year-old girl with a sister and a mother. All three wanted to migrate to America so they did. As is typical with most immigrant stories, the actual city of New York differed a great deal from what was seen on television and in movies!
The family seemed to struggle at the blue-collar level until they ran out of all funds but $8. When this happened, they had to eat at church-sponsored meal kitchens and live in shelters and even on the street! The three of them survived, and the experience has made Doe an incredible entrepreneur.
At the end of Doe's story, when they move into public housing, Doe isn't upset about the crime or graffiti that seems to take place all around them. The family is simply excited over having a place period! A separate kitchen unit is like icing on the cake to them! Pull one life-long resident from public housing in New York and ask him if he's got a problem with the arrangement. Statistically speaking, a life-long resident will very rarely be in dire straights and have nothing to complain about. Doe and her two family members were but they still loved this country enough to not offer complaints!
At no point in the story does Doe complain that the United States didn't recognize her mother's accounting credentials or that they didn't have privacy as they slept. These three women were too busy doing what they had to do to make America work for them. If more life-long residents had this idea and work ethic, this country would be filled to the brim with Doe Deere's.

It's often said, "It's not the destination, it is the journey". Philosophically true as that may be, it isn't always the case for the business world.
When I was a kid we took a lot of road trips. And, though the family experience was always great, it wasn't always pleasant. That's okay, it was family and we always made it home, happily. However, an unpleasant experience during the customer journey can lead to a terrible destination.
The trend towards "self-service first" is clear in today's customer journey. CFI Group recently reported in "Contact Center Satisfaction Index" that 72% of those surveyed visited digital channels to resolve their issue before contacting a live customer service agent. But, they don't want self-service when they are calling. When contacting customer service 79% called on the phone to reach a live agent. This data underscores the importance of managing every channel of the Customer Experience Journey: Digital Contact, Automated Interactions, and Live Human Agents.
CFI Group also reported that 46% of consumers share their customer service experience with others. And we know that consumers are more likely to share a negative or unpleasant experience than a good one. In a survey by Dimensional Research sponsored by ZenDesk, it was found that 50% were more likely to share a negative review on social media and online. This word-of-mouth power equates to the Net Promoter Score: What is the likelihood that a customer will recommend your company? After a negative experience? Not likely at all.
That brings us to the ultimate customer journey destination: An effortless customer experience. A happy customer is usually a loyal customer. And, happy agents are loyal agents.

i-paye streamline identity checks with TrustID Cloud
This Umbrella Service provider based in the North West on-board and pay hundreds of contractors every week. TrustID ID checks help them meet their pre-employment compliance responsibilities and quickly and easily confirm the authenticity of identity documents from each contractor as part of Right to Work checks.
TrustID makes our process for checking documents really quick – it's dead easy, fast, efficient and keeps our business protected. And we know that if we have any doubts, we get a fast response from the TrustID team.
Nicola Hughes, Senior Account Manager, i-paye
Benefits of using the TrustID system
- Allows reliable and efficient checks to be made on copies of identity documents
- Protects the i-paye brand and that of their customers
- Saves time and removes the need for ongoing document training
- Access to the TrustID helpdesk experts for additional advice.
The business need
i-paye work in a fast-paced environment, on-boarding and paying hundreds of contractors every week, with self-employed contractors either coming to them directly or being referred through a network of recruitment agencies. As the organisation paying the contractors, i-paye need to ensure that they meet their pre- employment compliance responsibilities and make the right checks on identity documents from each contractor as part of Right to Work checks. In most cases, i-paye receive a copy of a contractor's identity document from a recruitment agency and with the threat of reputational damage and significant fines, the business was keen to find a way to quickly and easily confirm the authenticity of these copies.
"The recruitment agency will usually meet the contractor on-site and see an original identity document but since we're responsible for the payroll, even if we don't meet the person, we could still be liable for a fine if we're found to be paying someone who doesn't have the right to work in the UK." explains Michelle Gill, Senior Account Manager at i-paye. "We wanted to find an easy way to protect ourselves and our agency partners from illegal workers and demonstrate that we're driving the highest levels of compliance".
The solution
In Spring 2017, i-paye introduced TrustID Cloud and the team began uploading photocopies of passports, visas and driving licences to a secure website for verification. The uploads take just a few seconds and they receive a report within minutes to let them know whether the identity document is genuine, with any suspicious or unclear results referred straight to the TrustID helpdesk team for further analysis. I-paye now insist that an identity document for every contractor is put through the Cloud service, regardless of their nationality, and won't start to pay anyone until they have the confirmation report showing the authenticity of their identity document. Michelle explains: "We never assume that any identity document is OK – British, European or otherwise - since it's sometimes really hard to tell and our experience with the TrustID service tells us that even 'really good' European passports can turn out to be fake."
Saving time and stress
Today, i-paye can rely on an automated check which takes the guess-work out of their pre-employment checks. In the past, the staff had to decide on the authenticity of a document using visual inspection alone which was time-consuming and unreliable.
"We were always conscientious about checking IDs – Michelle worked with the Home Office when we had concerns and checked external reference databases and guides for advice. But TrustID has freed up Michelle's time to concentrate on her main role and removed a level of stress... she doesn't have to worry now about trying to keep all our staff trained and updated on the many different documents that we see" explains Nicola Hughes, Senior Account Manager at i-paye.
Complete protection
Since introducing TrustID Cloud, i-paye have identified several suspicious and fraudulent documents. One candidate presented three different fraudulent documents including a French passport and ID card and the team were able to confidently stop his registration before he began work.
Stopping contractors before they are employed is ideal for i-paye but with such straightforward and quick document checks, they have also been able to introduce a retrospective auditing process. This verifies contractors already registered with their agency recruitment partners who might have inadvertently been missed in previous checks.
"Now that we have the system, we've decided to go back through our records and make sure that everything is 100% checked.
If we were to be audited, this would help us show that we've taken the right steps to make sure we're only paying those people we should be paying. Plus, this is a great service for our customers that gives them extra peace of mind" adds Michelle.
A competitive edge
i-paye are proud to advertise and promote their identity checking process which supports their ethos for strong customer service and strict compliance. "We're in such a competitive market, the TrustID system really helps us to stand out. We're not just protecting ourselves but our agencies too," explains Nicola. "TrustID helps us to grow, confident that we can take on hundreds of contractors in a month without the risk of starting to pay someone who isn't legal"
It's taken the stress away from our document check process. Spotting fake documents by sight alone was really hard, especially when we don't usually get to meet the person...TrustID now gives us reliability and reassurance and we love it.
Michelle Gill, Senior Account Manager at i-paye
TrustID Cloud has helped i-paye to reinforce their on-boarding process for contractors on their payroll which has removed uncertainty and helped them to ensure compliance. The team at i-paye are now confident that they only pay people who have proved their identity and could easily demonstrate their diligence if they were audited.
The TrustID service helps i-paye to save time and protects their reputation as well as that of their partner agencies.

Alexa Revises there ranking system
Earlier Alexa ranking system was considered very inaccurate. The rank was determined by the users who view your site with the Alexa toolbar installed. So the rank you got was basically based on the Alexa community. And since many users didn't use the Alexa toolbar and it was also not available for many platforms, it didn't present a clear picture. And it was also easy to game the system to increase your rankings.
Finally Alexa has decide to revise its ranking system and will now use a new algorithm. Now Alexa will compile data from "multiple sources" to give a better indication of the popularity of the website among the entire population of Internet users and not just the users of Alexa Toolbar.
We listened to your suggestions, and we believe that our new rankings system is much closer to what you asked for. We now aggregate data from multiple sources to give you a better indication of website popularity among the entire population of Internet users.
Your ranking wasn't wrong before, but it was different. Alexa toolbar users' interests and surfing habits could differ from those of the general population in a number of ways, and we described some of those possible differences on our website. While the vast majority of sites' rankings were unaffected by such differences, we've worked hard on our new ranking system to adjust for situations in which they could matter.
Alexa is quite popular among the Internet users for determining statistics. Now with this new algorithm, i think we can trust it more. My Alexa rank received quite a boost yesterday. Did yours change ? What do you think about the new ranking system ?

Boyd Bucks Trend
by Eilidh MacPherson
Nigel Boyd of Rockhallhead Farm, Collin, Dumfriesshire has just fulfilled his lifetime ambition – going dairy farming.
As many dairy farmers across the country pull the plug and get out of the industry altogether, others have expanded, but so far in this country very few have converted from beef and sheep or any other farming enterprises into dairying.
I was writing for the New Zealand Farmer Magazine during the dairy boom in the South Island of New Zealand at the beginning of this century. Many Southland sheep farmers, with no dairy expertise were converting their properties into dairy units. Other professionals, who had never milked a cow before were jacking in jobs in the cities and the shearing sheds to take up share milking – a profitable future in the countryside.
Nigel on the other hand has been working to this end all his adult life. He attended the Barony College on leaving school from 1983-1985, with a view to picking up as much dairying experience as possible. "But milk quotas were introduced in 1984 so it put the Kybosh on my plans as quota was half the price of the farm," explained Nigel.
"We did consider selling this farm 20 years ago and buying a dairy farm, but decided to stay put. The road is the main issue as it is steep and can get blocked in winter. But with modern machinery it is no longer a problem."
For the past fifteen years Nigel has been biding his time. "Everything I've done over the years has been with dairying in mind."
Two sheds were built 2 and 7 years ago, which could be used for cubicles.
The Boyd's initially started looking at putting in a parlour when they started the business plan process about three years ago. "But I got wind that farmers were being granted SRDP funding for putting in robots, so with the help of my friend who runs Davidson Thorburn Consulting, we put forward 3 options for business plans. The first was for 120 cows and a parlour, the second 120 cows and 2 second hand robots and the third for 120 cows and two new robots.
"The second hand robots were ruled out as the technology is so new there are no second hand robots available, or very few," said Nigel.
Once the business plans were complete, Nigel had his bank – the Clydesdale Bank come out to the farm. "My banker and a dairy specialist lady visited. I was unimpressed as they were very negative to the whole idea, so I moved banks to the Royal Bank of Scotland, who were prepared to back me whether I had grant funding or not and I now deal with Alex Urquhart, who is based at Annan."
"We were granted the funding in May 2009 so were able to put up an extra shed."
But it wasn't all plain sailing as a the remains of a Saxon Chapel lie on Rockhallhead Farm and excavations were held up for 14 weeks while the powers that be decided whether it could go ahead or not.
"An archaeologist was sent in and any digging had to be at least 25m from the Chapel. Time was knocking on and we were dreading the fact we might end up with an archaeological dig on the property. A digger came in and breeze blocks were unearthed so it was a huge relief," sighed Nigel.
Cows were sourced through BACA cattle agency from a herd in North Cumbria. "The farmer there was offered £480/acre to supply grass for an anaerobic digester so a deal was done and he sold all his cows to me. I'm also getting first option at his heifer replacements till I can breed my own. The first one arrived last week."
The Boyd's are no strangers to calf rearing, having previously reared and then fattened at least 60 dairy calves every year, alongside 60 off-spring from their suckler herd.
Previously sheep, numbering 200 were also run on the hillside at Rockhallhead and income was supplemented by running four lorries with palletised distribution.
While I was sitting in the dairy computer room interviewing Nigel and his wife Alison, his phone alerted him that a cow was needing tubed for mastitis. "The computer has a cow monitoring system, which uses a number of factors like; drops in yield, kick-offs, incomplete milkings, blood/colour, successful milkings, average milking period, to calculate an index. If the score is over 2 the cow should be checked and treated for mastitis by 2.2. It is a big benefit as cows can be treated before they have full blown mastitis."
Initially Nigel found it difficult to obtain a milk contract but then had three offers on the table – Caledonian Cheese, Milklink and First Milk. He has currently opted for Caledonian Cheese and his first cheque was just under 22p/l. He would rather a liquid milk contract, as with Holstein Frisians he isn't achieving the fat and protein levels for bonuses.
During my visit De Laval salesman, Craig Kennedy (pictured left) arrived with Chris Mathers, who install and repair the dairy supplies in Dumfriesshire, and a farmer and two sons, who are considering converting to robotic milking. Craig, who lives in Glasgow, covers the whole of Scotland and reckons that there are now 30 De Laval robots in operation across the country, with many more at the planning stage.
"It has been a very exciting time working for De Laval since the launch of the Robots – it is the way ahead. The Forbes family, near Stonehaven, who own East Coast Viners have 5 robots, milking 55 cows each and only have one man looking after them!" commented Craig.
The farmer and his sons were suitably impressed, as was a Carrs Billington driver, who was delivering feed. Nigel spent a year and a half looking into robots and visiting farms. Several factors led him to decide to go with De Laval. "The independent arm which puts the cups on has far more flexibility for udders and teat placement, whereas other makes are limited. It is the only brand with a separate wash cup. It circulates water round and dries with air. It then strips the foremilk down so stimulates the cow and milks more. Also Mathers is right on the doorstep and there is a man at Carrutherstown."
"They have been tremendous. He's often here by the time I put the phone down!
"We've been very lucky as we've had no teething problems and have some amazing stats. Mathers are impressed with how the cows went through. Most farms have 2.8 milkings on average after a year. We had 2.8 by day 4 and 2.95-3.1 after 3 weeks. The high yielders milk 4- 4.5 times in a 24hr period. When the cows came they were doing 24.1 litres now they are at 30l."
The Boyd's have their robots set up side by side, which if there is a breakdown, all cows can get milked on the other. As the cattle settle into their routine, Nigel and Alison should find that they have more time to spend with their young boys – Ross (8) and Rory (6).

How many of you will have heard of the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat of stock purchases at dizzying multiples? It went one thing like this: Public Company A with a inventory price of $50 per share buys Private Firm B for a 15 x EBITDA multiple in an all inventory deal with a one-yr restriction on sale of the inventory. Let's imagine that the resultant sale proceeds were a hundred and sixty,000 shares totaling $eight million in value. Firm A's stock goes on a steady decline and by the point you'll be able to sell, the worth is $2.50. Now the effective sale worth of your company becomes $four hundred,000.
