Ever stare at an empty canvas and feel absolutely nothing but fear or dread?
A blank sheet of paper, an empty dance studio, a piano? It can be utterly paralyzing. One of the many things I love about being a student is that I love to be given assignments – a jumping off point to get me rolling. I thrive on the structure. It should not surprise me when I see my own students thriving under those conditions but sometimes it still does.
I was recently working with a group of very young kindergarten students who had great difficulty moving as a whole class, even with their own personal big x on the floor to help them stay in their own personal space. Every meeting with them was an interesting challenge. But one magical day I found an activity that worked marvelously for them quite by accident.
We were exploring pathway.
After tracing pathways in the air with different body parts, I invited them to dance along different pathways I had drawn with chalk on the carpet. I drew the lines so they set up like stations and divided the students into four groups; one group danced the straight line, another the spiral, another the zig-zag and the fourth a curvy line. The groups rotated after each student had had a chance to dance along the line a few times so that all the dancers had an opportunity to dance each pathway. The classroom teacher and I marveled as these students, who seemed to have so much trouble with impulse control and spacial awareness, flourished in this activity.
One student from each group followed the line at a time, using his/her own choice of locomotor movement, and danced along the line leaving and returning to the starting point. S/he then took the spot at the end of the line and watched as the other dancers moved along the same line. The only other direction I gave was to choose a safe movement that did not involve walking or running. Immediately I had dancers sliding backwards, skipping, crawling, rolling, frog-jumping, and a variety of other fusion movements too difficult to sum up in a word.
It truly stunned me to see them all taking turns, choosing their own way to move, changing levels and carefully following the pathway laid out for them. This simple structure allowed their own ideas to be channeled and freed and allowed me the opportunity to really observe each child move which can be tricky with very active young bodies!

McALLEN — The longest visit to a University of Texas campus so far by Chancellor James Milliken and wife Nana Smith culminated last Thursday after two full days at UT Rio Grande Valley. And aside from student and faculty introductions, area legislators also got a chance to meet new UT leader.
"I spent about an hour with Chancellor Milliken and he has a very impressive resume and experience in higher education," said state Sen. Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa, D- McAllen. "He is also well versed in the relationship between the legislation and higher education."
The visit was part of Milliken's tour of all 14 UT institutions, which he hopes to finalize by the end of November.
Part of the familiarization process involved meeting students, faculty and administrators at UTRGV, as well as Valley legislators and city leaders; anybody with a grasp of what the regional opportunities and needs are.
City of McAllen Judge and UT Regent Ernest Aliseda said these campus visits are incredibly important due to all 14 institutions being very different.
"I think it's important to have a sense of the different universities and health-science centers within the system," Aliseda said. "Our area, I tend to believe, is very unique. We have a campus that expands from Edinburg all the way to (South Padre) Island, and in that sense it's pretty unique."
UTRGV's is not only the newest university in the system but it also covers three counties — Hidalgo, Cameron and Starr — all along the Texas-Mexico border and all catering to a culturally different population than that of the state capital or other regions.
Legislators from all throughout the Valley work together to advocate for the region's needs and higher education remains one of the top priorities.
"We have very strong community leaders," Aliseda said. "It is important for him to realize who the leaders are in each of the different communities that make up the Valley … he needs to have those relationships with those people. It's very important."
During an interview Wednesday, Milliken echoed this sentiment and said a big part of his job is maintaining those relationships and creating them where there are none.
"My goal is to continue to demonstrate that the University of Texas System, this campus, and the other 13 are meeting their expectations, are delivering on the promise we made to the people of Texas," Milliken said. "And you can only do that if you have relationships with the political leadership."
In the case of UTRGV, which has only been up and running for three years after the dissolution of UT Pan American and UT Brownsville, the way to demonstrate its impact relies heavily in making its potential clear to stakeholders, Milliken said.
The main reason why the UTRGV was created was to have access to state funding and to create a School of Medicine. This creates access to healthcare, medical careers and research, which Milliken acknowledged as a great part of this potential.
Hinojosa said that during their meeting they went over some of the challenges faced by higher education in the Valley and statewide, including decreased funding. The chancellor was very receptive, he said, to the resources that could be leveraged to gain resources.
"One of the things he pointed out was that we have the youngest population in the state of Texas and probably in the country," Hinojosa said. "It's a great human resource, so its about finding ways to provide them the opportunity and the means for them to get educated."
State Sen. Eddie Lucio Jr., D-Brownsville, also had the opportunity to meet with the chancellor and said they discussed a wide array of topics, from the beginning of the Valley becoming a part of the UT System family in the late 1080s, early 1990s, to the evolution of the UT System institutions leading to UTRGV.
"We are blessed, to say the least, to be part of two systems, UT System and Texas A&M," Lucio said. "I spoke about my relationship with Dr. Bailey and how I am thankful we have a leader that was prepared to really take the reins of leadership down here and really move the university in the right direction. Which he has."
Lucio said this compliments the drive of the current delegation, which Lucio described as the strongest one he has worked with since 1987.
He said the entire Valley delegation has worked together to represent the Rio Grande Valley as a family and bring in the resources necessary to operate the still infant university.
"What we are looking for is making sure that we have the resources and funds to be able to operate a world-class university," Lucio said. "It's a great university, I told him, in its infancy. But I think we have the manpower and the woman-power locally to make it happen, and a lot of young people who want to get a first-class education that will because we are part of the huge UT System now."
Both Hinojosa and Lucio said the plan is to stay in close contact with the chancellor in hopes to represent the needs of the regional institution at their best.
Previous chancellors including Milliken's most recent predecessors, William McRaven and Francisco Cigarroa, were close to the Valley before and after the transition to UTRGV. And the two senators said they got the sense that this relationship will be a positive one as well.
"He asked if there was one thing I could offer him as advice, what would that be," Lucio said. "And I told him what my dad had told me in 1970 when I ran for office the first time … he told me, 'Remember son, people don't care how much you know. They want to know how much you care.'… He was kind of moved. I was impressed by the way he reacted in a very humble way."
This article was modified to reflect that UT Regent Ernie Aliseda is also a City of McAllen Judge.

The real-world ministry problem discussed in this dissertation is: The Evangelical Church's mission predicament in the context of ministry in North America that resides in a post-Christendom, postmodern, pluralist society. The problem will be addressed by: using several case studies to help view the church's mission centered in the missio Dei.
Chapter 1 will discuss the problem of what I have called mission drift, the context for ministry found in the midst of a global cultural shift, the background of the project, the contribution to Transformational Leadership, and one proposed solution.
Chapter 2 will discuss other proposed solutions by reviewing literature that reflects on both the problem and other proposed solutions. Chapter 3 will look at the biblical and theological basis of the missio Dei using N. T. Wright's five-act-play model.
Chapter 4 will outline the case study research method using Vineyard Community Church's narrative of the past six plus years of navigating a transition to a congregation active in mission.
Chapter 5 will discuss my thesis: The Practicing Church, an in-depth narrative of the VCC story. Chapter 6 is the postscript telling my story of how the Bakke Graduate University doctoral program has influenced my ministry context, the impact of Transformational Leadership, and conclusions.

COMING UP IN 1.06 | A few years back, I made a couple new friends over in India. Anukraman Rathore told us a little bit about Western Motorsports and the The Monsoon Ride, two big, well-respected names in Indian motorsport, thanks in part to their dedication to taking the sport of rally to the masses.
Anukraman points out Western Motorsports is not a source of income for him (no surprise to any rally organizer in the world, I suspect). Bringing people together around motorized, vehicular adventures. In the years since last we spoke, they've run into some snags and had to put The Monsoon Ride on hold. Today, Anukraman is focused on growing his group, the Jeypore Bike Riders. [Read more…]

ILFM Conference 2018, Birmingham
2018 marks the Institute's 40th anniversary. To help celebrate, our annual one-day conference and AGM will take place in Birmingham on Friday 16 November 2018. The event will take place at Austin Court, which is part of the Institution of Engineering and Technology. This is a unique, listed building in the heart of Birmingham city centre. It is a beautiful blend of modern design and period features in an inspiring waterside location.
The Institute understands the challenges you and your firm face and the conference will bring together a variety of professionals who recognise the importance and share the views of legal finance. The day will give you the opportunity to connect, to be inspired and to find answers to the daily challenges you face. Whether you are supporting your firm and its COFA or leading the way as a practice manager, the Institute's conference will give you what you need to perform your job efficiently.
The conference will feature expert speakers on the practical and real-life dilemmas faced by today's accounts and management teams. You will hear about the new SRA Accounts Rules and how the changes to the Accounts Rules will affect firms, clients and your roles. The conference will particularly engage members who have the pivotal gatekeeping roles of legal cashier, COFA and practice managers – these roles form the lynchpin of financial governance.
Legal finance compliance is critical, so we shall examine the impact of the changes on COFAs and on the industry as a whole.
There will be expert views from a Reporting Accountant. These will include the main pitfalls and risks of protecting client monies, acting as a bank and how the principle-based SRA rules will change their approach.
You will also meet and hear from our CEO, Tim Kidd, who will explain the Institute's progress in increasing the support and value it offers to all members. Our members do a great job in often difficult circumstances and Tim will demonstrate how we are working to raise the profile of our members within the industry and he will outline changes to our student offering.
GDPR has been a massive focus for all businesses recently, so, with the help of Keith Markham, an experienced commercial solicitor and GDPR expert, we shall look at "where we are now," a few months after the 25 May deadline, at what has happened since and at how things are working.
There will be an opportunity to ask questions of our expert panel, which will consist of the speakers and Institute members.
After the conference, there will be a short and informal opportunity to have a much-deserved drink and to chat with other members, speakers, members of the Institute's Executive Council members and our CEO.
What to expect
Today, more than ever, firms are hungry for commonsense support and guidance on how to deal with the changing landscape of legal finance. Our prestigious line-up of speakers includes the following:
- The Director of Policy from the SRA will take the opportunity to talk about the latest SRA Handbook changes and how the SRA is progressing with its theme of "looking to the future."
- Following feedback from last year, our legal VAT expert, Darren Whelan, who is also our VAT trainer for law firms, will investigate and demonstrate some of the everyday conundrums our members face with VAT and give us some valuable examples of solutions and outcomes.
- The Access to Justice Foundation will join us again to update us on their great work and to celebrate the substantial donations they have received as a result of your Institute's work with them. To complement the great speakers we have already secured, we are putting the final touches to our line-up, so watch out for more news in Legal Abacus and on our website.
Additional Information/Speakers
Birmingham has excellent rail links across the country, including the Virgin West Coast and Cross Country. Just 1h22m from London and 1h28mins from Manchester. Best time to look is about 90 days before departure, that's around mid-August.

CHICAGO (CBS) — Naperville Mayor Steve Chirico responded to CBS 2's original questions about his flooring business's involvement with a development project he's supported as mayor with two different explanations on two different days. CBS 2 reported that.
But then after the report, Chirico went online with a third explanation. A post and several comments from Chirico on his Facebook page brought CBS 2's Tara Molina back to this story because they led to a few questions for CBS 2 from people in Naperville.
Watch the full interview here:
"We have not bid that job, nor do we intend to bid that job," Chirico said during his first sit down with CBS 2 after bringing information independently confirmed by CBS 2 directly to him.
The information directly tied his family flooring business, Great Western Flooring, to a development project he's supported and voted on for years — Central Park Place.
But hours after that interview the phone rang with a different explanation. Because he's no longer involved in Great Western's day-to-day, with his daughters at the helm, Chirico said he didn't realize at the time of the interview that day that his business is involved in the project. So CBS 2 went back to Naperville to re-interview the mayor the next day.
"I had no knowledge when I was working with the city council on this project that we would ever be involved with it," Chirico said.
Because he's not actively involved in the company he founded and still owns, the mayor said he would be more comfortable answering questions if his daughter, who is acting president, was present for the interview.
So, she was in the room.
"We have sent them a proposal with pricing, and now we are waiting on them to make up their mind on what direction they're gonna go," he said.
CBS 2 did not hear from the mayor's office again. But residents of Naperville did bring concerns about some different information posted online.
For example, one person wrote, "Your story on Naperville Mayor Chirico talked about him bidding on a project for the Central Park Condos. Chirico's response on his Facebook page was that it was for one condo, not the developer. I need to know if your information confirms his story or not. What can you tell me?"
"Our company was contacted by a design company that was hired by the developers of Central Park, and they asked us if we would give a quote on a product that was proprietary to our company. Evidently, the company that they were using or had been working with, and possibly still are working with, we don't really know that, was not able to source that material. We are one of a few providers of it, so we did give them a quote, and after that quote, and pricing, they asked us if we would be interested in bidding the job. So our company did bid the job. We have given them a bid. We have given them samples that will be included in the bid. We've been working back and forth on different allowances and things like that. We have not received any word on contract. We have not sent them a contract nor have they sent us a contract. We have not met with any of the buyers to make selections, which would be the first step of us being involved," Chirico said.
Tuesday night Naperville's city council members are set to review the Central Park Place development project, along with the owner's acceptance agreement.
Mayor Chirico has said, on the record, that now he will recuse himself from votes involving the project.

Sustainability is no longer a little-known cause pushed by a small group of activists. The environment is officially a major player in the drinks industry, factoring into the calculations of big brands. Bacardi is one heavyweight producer leading the charge. The company officially released the results of their three year push towards sustainability and admittedly, it's pretty impressive. Pushing ahead, Bacardi also announced some ambitious goals to keep up the momentum.
Reported Results
The original Good Spirited program was announcing in 2014. The family owned company vowed to make significant reductions to Green House Gas (GHG) intensity and water usage; in addition, commitments were made to zero waste to landfill and a push towards sustainably sourced sugarcane. The spirits giant announced that they met those goals.
"Every Bacardi employee should take pride in what we have achieved to make the world a better, more sustainable place," said Jean-Marc Lambert, Bacardi's Senior VP for Global Operations in a statement. "While we are pleased with our almost 60% reduction in GHG intensity and 50% reduction in water usage, we're not stopping here—we're working to achieve a net-zero impact throughout the value chain of our world-class brands. Our goal remains to return to the environment at least as much as we take away."
The distiller's GHG emissions are down 59%, the equivalent of taking 15,000 cars off the road, according to the company. New implementations of biogas, heat recovery systems, and wind turbines was a major factor. Biomass boilers at Cazadores, Aberfeldy, and Royal Brackla also contributed to there reduction.
Conservation measures at 25 manufacturing sites resulted in the 50% water use reduction between 2006 and December 2017.
Bacardi also reported that as of December 2018, 99.8% of their waste was diverted from landfills. 2022 is the target date to achieve full zero waste to landfill.
The report was not all roses. The 2014 goals also included a commitment to reduce glass weight via a 10% packaging reduction— a target that the producer missed. "his missed target was mainly driven by two factors: new packaging design implications and a refocus to overall GHG impact instead of only weight reduction," offered the company in a statement.
Bacardi is also signing up for the Bonsucro standard. The certification is awarded to sugarcane producers who adhere to base level standards covering sustainable agriculture, labor conditions, and human rights. At the close of last years, Bacardi reported that 86.3% of their sugarcane is sourced from Bonsucro certified farmers.
New Goals
For the next phase of the Good Spirited program, Bacardi turned to parameters set out its official sounding UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Specifically, future emphasis will include diversity, responsible drinking, community involvement, responsible sourcing, and additional focus on the environment.
Direct from the source, the official agenda for Bacardi's Good Spirited expansion follows…
1. Support the global strategy to reduce the harmful use of alcohol (UN SDG #3)
- Increase support of responsible drinking initiatives and partnerships in the top 80% of Bacardi markets
- Carry responsible drinking messaging and website designation on 100% of brand labels
- Make available to the consumer nutrition information for all brands
- Lead efforts, along with other industry members and partners, to put in place measures and standards to ensure digital marketing messages are targeted to adults of legal drinking age only
2. Care for and support our people, and reflect the diversity of our global operations (UN SDGs #5, #8)
- Less than one Lost Time Accident per 1,000,000 worked hours (previously set to achieve by 2023)
- Support equal opportunity and leadership for women at all levels by having at least 45% of a female workforce and an increase in women in leadership positions
- 90% of employees participate in training and development programs
3. Return to the environment at least as much as we take away (UN SDGs #6, #7, #12, #13, #14)
- 25% reduction of water consumed (focusing on water not returned to original source) at our operations*
- 50% replenishment of water incorporated into final product*
- Reduce absolute Scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions 50% and reduce absolute value chain GHG emissions (scopes 1, 2 and 3) 20% (approved by Science Based Targets)*
- Zero Waste to Landfill at all manufacturing sites (previously set to achieve by 2022)
- Eliminate one billion single-use plastic straws in collaboration with others (by 2020)
- Analyze and develop single-use plastic reduction across operations and supply chain
- *As compared to 2015 baseline (using earliest reliable data available)
4. Source our materials responsibly (UN SDGs #8, #12, #15)
- 100% of key raw materials sourced from sustainably-certified suppliers
- 100% paper and board used for shipping and labels sustainably certified
- 100% of product packaging to be recyclable
- 40% recycled content of product packaging materials
5. Take care of our communities (UN SDG #17)
- 95% of Bacardi offices and manufacturing sites to participate in at least one CR employee engagement activity in partnership with local organizations
- 90% of employees to volunteer one work day to a personal cause or organization

I have one IPOD-TP2MPIR50-W IP camera and I'm trying to connect directly to it via PSS. It is on the network and has an IP address and I can view it from my PC browser. I added it to the PSS software as an IP Camera device but PSS can't login. I've tried a few various ports but haven't had any luck. I'm not even finding in the camera settings where the port is set. It's usually 37777. Can this be done with this camera? My final goal is to be able to set this camera up on a network and connect directly to it via the gDMSS phone app without using a DVR. Thanks.

December 31, 2013
The 4 port POE NVR I'm trying to use with this camera doesn't appear to see it. It's at least not adding it automatically like I've seen the IPOB-EL2MPIR50 camera do. The POE ports don't light up either so I don't know whats going on. How can I get this NVR to add the camera?
To enable motion then you need to login to the camera interface, then go to Alarm, click enable at the top then you need to set the area you want motion to be enable. On the picture drag and release with the mouse button and you will see little squares in the picture, that represents the area that motion will be enable. set the schedule 00:00 – 23:59 and apply to all days. click set and save the settings.
Unfortunately that camera doesn't have a reset button. When you "Restore" the camera all it will do is default its settings but the IP address will stay the same. This is done like in case there are 2 cameras on the network then if you reset them there will be a conflict with Ip addresses. Lastly in order to use these camera series using the POE build in in the NVR then you will need to change the cameras to the POE ip range the NVR has set. the default is 10.0.0.1 but you can change it to 192.168.2.1 for example and the only thing you need to change in the camera is the last 2 octets. I will recommend you to set each setting of the camera first then change the IP address when ready to connect it to the POE. Remember Onvif is limited, it doesn't work like the EL cameras thats why they are less pricey but once they are set they worked good.
December 31, 2013
Thank you, this info helps. I see where to set the IP in the camera and I see where to set the main IP for the NVR but where do you set the IP for the NVR that is dedicated to the camera side. I'm assuming that the cameras will have a different IP network than the main network the NVR is connected to.
December 31, 2013
I've set the main IP address on the NVR to 10.100.1.90 which is my local network range with my router being 10.100.1.1. I can see the NVR from the network. I find a "Switch Settings" IP address in the NVR which is set to 192.168.1.1 with a gateway of 192.168.1.1. The IP camera is set to 192.168.1.2. I have the camera connected to port 1 on the NVR but the POE lights never come on and the camera is not receiving power. What am I missing?
That option will be under network>network settings Switch Settings. In there you will need to change the IP that you want to have for that network POE switch. Notice that the numbers for the IP address and gateway are equal, this is because it needs to be point it to itself. So if your NVR is 192.168.1.108 the you need can leave the default IP switch settings in there then change your cameras to that range, or you can change it to something like shown in the attached picture then you need to change the cameras IP address to that range, like 192.168.2.xxx.

That piece is part of the camera, and it is required to power the camera using POE. The only TP series Cameras that are POE build it are the varifocal model, IPID-TP2MPIR50L2812 and IPOB-TP2MPIR150L2812. The fix lens ones need that poe Splitter. if you don't want to use the splitter then it is required to power the camera using 12vdc.
The reason why is the EL series Cameras and all of our NVRs are propriety, therefore they will connect to the NVR choosing the Private protocol. Onvif cameras need to be addressed differently. They need to be added to be set prior to connect to the POE build in of the NVR. Make sure you have your address set in the switch POE first. Then make sure the onvif camera falls in to that range. For example if the range of the POE switch is 192.168.2.1 then you can configure the camera to 192.168.2.200 and set it to static.
Take a look at this video

I was able to get the camera working after watching the video. I had to power it via a separate 12V supply since I did not get the splitters. My hangup was the port. I found where port 80 was set in the camera so I was using that but I tried 8080 like the video shows and it worked. If I can just get the splitters I should be okay.

HME providers know that CBD products can offer them a new way to diversify their revenues through a compelling retail category. Furthermore, they know that CBD can help the patient segments they already serve, as well as all-new client groups. However, they might not know how to get started or how to implement a business plan that will take advantage of this opportunity.
Like in most categories in the HME market, successful retailers will lead with education – making sure their patients and customers feel comfortable and confident. In order to do this, providers need to understand what CBD exactly is (and what it isn't); how it works; and how they can effectively communicate its benefits to their existing patient base. Moreover, they need to understand the legal aspects of retailing CBD; how the right products can ensure repeat business; and how developing vendor partnerships is critical to their success.
This special HME Business education session will help providers chart a course toward lasting CBD business success.
You will learn:

Working With Upstream OpenStack Deadlines and Internal Deadlines
John Garbutt
Video recording and production done by OpenStack Foundation.
You are developer, and you have just been told to work with OpenStack. Welcome to the OpenStack community! You have also just been told you need to release your product next month, you have your all the codeyou're your new feature complete, and a few bug fixes done. Now you just need to get that pushed upstream. Where do you go next? You have been working for OpenStack for a while; some internal issues meant you had to stop reading the ML for a month or two. How do you get back in the loop? You are working hard reviewing specs and code, and the work load is getting crazy, and everyone is saying their use case is the most important thing for OpenStack, and they are all really useful things to consider. What is the right thing to do? Maybe we can use lessons from Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird improves how new and established OpenStack contributors work together? John has spent time at Citrix packaing OpenStack for public cloud, then pushing a vendor technology upstream (with an element of coopetition). Since early 2013, he has been working on Rackspace's public cloud. Mostly recently he served as the Nova PTL for the Liberty release. He is distilling what he has learnt during this journey, and looking to share this experience more widely, and hopes this will help create some great conversations about how we can all work together even more efficiently and effectively.

Loan against Property : Property as Collateral
A secured loan is one of the best ways to raise money. The only disadvantage of such a loan is that if the borrower is not able to pay the loan fully, the bank or the financial institution can take possession of the mortgaged property.
By: Ravi Mishra
There are many ways you could arrange for money, and one of those ways is taking a loan. You could take a personal loan for the amount required, or you could take a loan against your property. Let us explore the second option of taking the loan against our property.
What is a loan against property?
A loan against property is called as Secured Loan which is exactly what the name implies — a loan given or disbursed against the mortgage of property. The loan is given as a certain percentage of the property's market value, usually around 60% - 75%.
What purposes can I take a secured loan for?
Loan against Property can be taken for following purposes:
• Expanding your business or Home Improvement
• Getting your son/daughter married
• Sending your son/daughter for higher studies abroad
• Funding your dream vacation or paying old debt
• Funding medical treatments
What kind of properties can I mortgage for a loan?
You can normally take a loan against your self-occupied or rented residential property. This could be a house or even a piece of land.
What are the eligibility criteria to get a secured loan?
These criteria will vary from one bank to another. However, from all the host of factors, the common factors that all banks look at are:
• Your income, savings, debt obligations
• Cost/value of the property mortgaged
• your repayment track record for other loans, credit cards etc.
What are the normal interest rates and tenure for repayment offered for a secured loan?
Interest rates on loan against property range from 7.99% -19.99% and the loan tenure can be up to 25 years.
A secured loan is one of the best ways to raise money. The only disadvantage of such a loan is that if the borrower is not able to pay the loan fully, the bank or the financial institution can take possession of the mortgaged property. Base your decision on your repaying capabilities.For more information on you can also log on to http://www.loantoloan.co.uk

Here is a song I am currently working on.
Any crits are appreciated thanks.

Real wages in Ukraine dropped 0.4% year on year in April, after growing 9.3% y/y in March, the State Statistics Service reported on May 28. The average monthly nominal wage declined to UAH10,430 a month ($383) from UAH11,446 in March, or -9.6% month on month in real terms.
The leading regions for average monthly wages were the city of Kyiv (UAH15,278), Ukrainian-controlled Donetsk region (UAH12,473) and Kyiv region (UAH10,797).
The largest nominal average wage decline was in hospitality and restaurant services (-46.4%), real estate services (-13.1% y/y), and information and telecommunication services (-10.7% y/y). Within the industrial sector, the highest decline of nominal wages was in the textile industry (-31.6% y/y), machinery (-16.1% y/y) and furniture manufacturing (-13.9% y/y).
Meanwhile, nominal wages jumped the most in electricity and gas distribution (14.5% y/y), water utilities (12.8% y/y) and coke and oil production (7.5% y/y).
"The severe quarantine measures that were in place the whole month of April resulted in significant cooling of business activity and dropping wages. However, the decline was not devastating and mostly affected those sectors in which activity was largely prohibited. Meanwhile, the enterprises involved in support services were less affected, as well as those with a continuous production cycle," Evgeniya Akhtyrko of Concorde Capital said in a note. "We are likely to see a similar wage trend in May, as quarantine and lockdown restrictions were in place for the most of the month."

"Actions speak louder than words."
It's an old saying, with more than a grain of truth to it, I'll warrant. So why is it that when the Wall Street firms merely "initiate coverage" or "upgrade" their ratings on a company, that gets all the news coverage? After all, those are only words, when what really matters is how the big boys act. Luckily for Wall Street watchers, finding out which professionals put their money where their corporate mouthpieces are has become relatively easy in this Internet age of ours. All we have to do is read MSN Money's list of which companies the Street is most actively buying.
But once we've done that, what next? After all, "Monkey see, monkey do" may not make for the soundest of investment strategies. That's where Motley Fool CAPS can help. The Fool's newest venture into the realm of collective intelligence collects ratings from more than 30,000 lay and professional analysts, then overweights the most successful raters' opinions to come up with a "CAPS rating" from one to five stars (five being the best). If Wall Street's buying and the smartest investors in Fooldom say they're right to do so, then that should get your attention.
And so, let's meet today's list of contenders:
Currently Fetching
CAPS Rating (out of 5)
General Motors
Wall Street vs. Main Street
Wall Street's hottest picks get only a lukewarm reception on Main Street this week, with just one of Wall Street's fave picks rated above average, and everyone else deemed average or below. The sole winner in the CAPS popularity race: Motley Fool Stock Advisor recommendation and website data cruncher Omniture.
Doubtless benefiting from buyout speculation after Oracle's
The bull case for Omniture
- WSMOOT19 sees a future in Omniture based on the firm's "77% revenue growth." Meanwhile, profit growth is expected to reach triple digits next year, and to average 37% per year for the next five years. With numbers like these, who needs a buyout?
- KempInTheWoods argues: "The job of tracking and optimizing user experience in commercial websites seems to me like a long-term growth area -- and although OMTR has not turned a profit yet, prospects are good, management is invested and engaged."
- tcgfund calls Omniture "a solid business with a huge client list. If they focus on retaining their existing customers and developing serious relationships with them, which it seems as though they have, they hold huge promise for the future. They are providing [a] service that major web-based companies can't live without. The CEO is young, smart, and aggressive. Their website is extremely well done, and clearly caters to organizations with a lot of dough to spend. I see this company gaining serious ground in the next two years, and I expect the stock price to go with it."
While not specifically addressing the risk that Omniture has become fully priced or overpriced, our CAPS All-Stars seem pretty sure the company has a bright future, whether solo or as part of a larger enterprise. On the question of which way the story might play out, read fellow Fool Rick Munarriz's column, "Snipping at Those Coattails," for a more detailed look at buyout prospects.
Time to chime in
Once you've done that, come on over to CAPS and tell us what you think. Do 37% profits growth justify a 71 forward P/E? Have Omniture's growth prospects been fully (or more than fully) priced into the stock already? And if that's the case, will a buyout save the day? On CAPS, you play the expert, and we, the pundits, are your audience.
Motley Fool CAPS: It's fun, it's free, and it just might make you famous.
Fool contributor Rich Smith does not own shares of any company named above. You can find him on CAPS, publicly pontificating under the handle TMFDitty, where he's ranked No. 790 out of more than 31,000 rated investors. TASER is a Rule Breakers recommendation and Microsoft is an Inside Value selection. The Motley Fool has a disclosure policy.

How Welsh cattle are helping bring lapwings and redshanks back to the Broads
PUBLISHED: 15:45 22 August 2019 | UPDATED: 16:16 22 August 2019
Amy Millard / rspb-images.com
A remarkable resurgence of wading birds at a Broads marshland has been credited to the hardy cattle grazing there – and the enthusiasm of conservation managers.
Herringfleet Marshes is 50 hectares of grazing land in the Waveney river valley owned by the Somerleyton Estate, which aims to manage it in a way which could reverse the declines of wildlife like lapwings and redshanks.
The birds need a short grass sward for nesting - traditionally maintained by grazing livestock - and high water levels to ensure an invertebrate-rich habitat where they can feed their chicks.
But much of this ideal habitat in the Broads has either been drained or converted to arable production.
So at Herringfleet, the marshes are grazed by Welsh Black cattle to manage the grass and, in autumn 2018, water levels were raised and historic "footdrains" - installed to by marshmen between the wars to drain the lowest lying areas - have been excavated to bring in water from the surrounding drainage dykes.
As a result, there has been a significant rise in bird life, including an estimated 13 pairs of lapwing breeding on the site between April and June this year, a 50pc increase from 2014, and 14 pairs of redshank, up 250pc from 2014. There were also large flocks of wintering waders and wildfowl.
You may also want to watch:
Reg Land, a birdwatcher and RSPB survey volunteer who collected the data, said: "To see the abundance and variety of bird life returning to these marshes over the past winter and spring has been uplifting.
"So too has been the enthusiasm of all those managing the marshes and their desire to make a success of the work. Take a good idea, stir in some enthusiastic people, then add water - and the birds will return."
As well as helping wildlife, the estate says increased water levels on the Herringfleet Marshes will bring added benefits for flood mitigation and water quality, and the grazing is good enough to produce quality beef for the estate' pubs - The Dukes Head and The Fritton Arms.
The landowners are now planning a similar project at the adjoining Somerleyton Marshes, with the support of the RSPB and Suffolk Wildlife Trust.
Lord Somerleyton said he believes a collaborative approach between landowners and conservation organisations can help create and connect wild areas on a landscape scale.
"A lot of this marshland is arable or excessively drained and grazed," he said. "But if much of the area is managed more benignly, bringing in sensitive grazing on a wetter landscape, it could transform the area.
"The estate is absolutely clear that it is running an outdoor, extensive - but nonetheless viable - livestock business, and it is perfectly possible to do farming and conservation together."

I was woken by a massive CRASH.
"DRATTED TADPOLES" I shouted, "What's going on? Zanzibar, Zanzibar!" But I couldn't see my cat anywhere. There was another crash – smaller this time, and a hole appeared in the roof of my cave – where the chimney had been over the cauldron. The fire under the cauldron was crackling merrily and otherwise everything looked normal.
"Zanzibar?" I called – as though his name was a question. "Is that you? And where's my chimney?"
Zanzibar's face appeared through the hole in the roof. He was covered in dust, and his normally white face was almost completely black. He coughed. And spluttered. And coughed again. Then he disappeared, there was a scrabbling sort of sound and there he was, standing in the open doorway of the cave, completely black and with dust and ash falling off him.
"Whatever happened?" I asked him.
Zanzibar looked at me – and even though he was now covered in soot I could see he was squirming and looking awfully embarrassed.
"I thought I'd get the cauldron ready for you," he said. "But the fire didn't light properly and the cave was starting to get smokey. So I thought I'd get up on the roof of the cave to see if the chimney was blocked. It was. It was thick with sticky soot from the experiment with the eels, molasses and tires that we tried last week. So I tried to clean it. It is spring you know. And I thought it needed spring cleaning…."
Zanzibar looked miserable. "What sort of a witch's cat am I if I can't stay up on the roof of the cave to clean out the chimney?" he whined. "And while I was up there, and the chimney was getting cleaner and cleaner, the fire was working better and better, and the roof was getting hotter and hotter until….I dropped the chimney, and broke it."
He handed me the pieces of still warm chimney.
"Don't worry, Zanz," I said. "I'll magic us a new one."
I put the pieces of the chimney into the cauldron and tried to think of a spell to fix it.
"Mend my chimney, fix my flue
Do it all with witch's glue,
Flunkadee – a spell on cue!
And now my flue's as good as new!"
There was a flash, a bang and a strange crooked chimney rose out of the cauldron, spun around three times before flying up to the hole on the roof and wedging itself in place.
"Brilliant," Zanzibar squealed.
"Oh Heckerty you ARE clever."
"Oh Zanz," I said. "It was all done for you. After all, what witch would allow her cat to go up on a hot, tin roof."

The time is ripe for a W3C standard for rules and RIF looks to me to be a very good proposal, building on the experience of previous work on SWRL and RuleML, among other initiatives. I particularly like its modular structure and its extensibility using FLD. It remains to be seen whether FLD will be expressive enough for requirements in the legal domain, for defining a dialect capable of modeling legislation in an "isomorphic" way, which is important for both validating and maintaining the models. In a three year European project, ESTRELLA, which ended in 2008, we developed a rule interchange language for models of legislation, called the Legal Knowledge Interchange Format (LKIF) expressly for this purpose. We may have built LKIF on top of RIF had it been available at the time. It may be an interesting task to see if LKIF could be reconstructed as a RIF dialect using FLD. One nitpick: RIF, like SWRL before it, define a bunch of "builtin" predicate and function symbols. I would have much preferred a more general and extensible method for attaching procedures, defined using existing programming langauges. ____________________________ Dr. Thomas F.

Professor and Chair, Division of Periodontics, College of Dental Medicine, Columbia University, New York, NY, USA
Periodontal diseases were considered in the past as simple microbial infections of the periodontium, but nowadays they are conceived as local pathological conditions with a potential to affect remote sites of the body. Periodontal medicine is an emerging scientific field aiming to explore the apparent impact of periodontal disease on systemic health. Epidemiological evidence has associated periodontitis with a growing list of systemic conditions, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, adverse pregnancy outcomes, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic respiratory conditions, and chronic kidney disease. The observed associations are thought to be the result of either a direct periopathogenic infectious insult or a low-grade systemic inflammatory response induced by periodontitis.
Several intervention studies also reveal a positive effect of periodontal treatment on related systemic diseases and adverse outcomes. Other intervention trials failed to demonstrate a protective effect, and still, others demonstrated a significant impact on several surrogate disease markers. Epidemiological and intervention studies so far demonstrate correlations of varying strengths between periodontal and systemic diseases but not a strict causal association. Clinicians should inform patients about the potential systemic health risks of periodontal disease in the context of the currently available evidence. Undoubtedly, substantial additional research is required to establish definitive conclusions on the nature of the relationship between periodontitis and systemic diseases.
Analecta Periodontologica 2009; 20:11-17
A plethora of documents from antiquity to modern times have reported an apparent association between oral infections and extra-oral pathological conditions, including arthritis, epilepsy, gastritis, pneumonia, septicemia, and cardiac episodes (O'Reilly and Claffey 2000). The concepts of "oral sepsis" (Hunter 1900) and "focal infection" (Billings 1912) were formally introduced to the medical literature at the beginning of the 20th century. According to these theories, pathogenic bacteria or microbial waste products from the first "focus," usually the mouth, spread through the blood supply to induce infections at distant regions of the body (Billings 1912). Dentistry was incriminated of placing septic prosthetic constructions in the oral environment, and proponents of the focal infection theory advocated multiple extractions of teeth and removal of tonsils to improve systemic health (Hunter 1900, 1910). However, the long-lasting practice of indiscriminate extraction of all periodontally or endodontically involved teeth failed to result in relief of symptoms or to reduce the incidence of the allegedly related systemic diseases. During subsequent decades, lack of documentation led to the rejection of the focal infection hypothesis, except for cases of bacterial endocarditis in certain high-risk patient populations.
Cardiovascular diseases
A new era in the oral-systemic connection was introduced in the late 1980s by the emerging evidence of an association between poor dental health and acute myocardial infarction (Mattila et al. 1989). Over the following two decades, epidemiological studies confirmed an independent association between periodontal and cardiovascular diseases despite several common risk factors with probable confounding effects (Bahekar et al. 2007). Similar studies also revealed a correlation between untreated periodontitis and surrogate markers of cardiovascular conditions, including endothelial dysfunction, subclinical carotid atherosclerosis, and inflammatory biomarkers in the peripheral blood. The detection of periopathogenic bacteria in atheromatic lesions and pertinent in vivo animal experimentation further supported the role of infection in atherogenesis. Moreover, the chronic low-grade systemic inflammatory burden sustained by periodontal infection was proposed as an additional pathogenetic mechanism (Kebschull et al. 2010).
Despite the observed epidemiological associations and the apparent biologically plausible link, the Periodontitis and Vascular Events (PAVE) pilot randomized clinical trial failed to demonstrate a protective effect of nonsurgical periodontal treatment in reducing the risk of a second myocardial infarction in individuals with a history of cardiovascular disease (Beck et al. 2008). Nevertheless, several intervention studies indicate that periodontal treatment may improve several surrogate markers for cardiovascular diseases including endothelial dysfunction, levels of systemic inflammatory mediators such as C-reactive protein and interleukin-1, and serum lipid profiles (Kebschull et al. 2010). The logistics of randomized controlled intervention trials that evaluate the ability of periodontal treatment to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular diseases are challenging because of the several decades long development of clinically significant atherosclerosis, the required recruitment of large population samples, and the ethical issues related to monitoring of untreated periodontitis.
Diabetes mellitus
Accumulated data have also established that diabetic patients suffer from more severe, extensive, and progressive periodontal disease compared with nondiabetic individuals (Taylor and Borgnakke 2008, Chávarry et al. 2009). The molecular and cellular mechanisms that lead to extensive diabetic vascular complications throughout the body are also responsible for the detrimental effects of diabetes on periodontal tissues: reduced neutrophil and increased macrophage function, overproduction of inflammatory mediators, accumulation of advanced glycosylation end products, and impaired wound-healing potential (Mealey and Oates 2006). The exaggerated inflammatory response to periopathogenic bacteria accounts for the more severe periodontal destruction observed in diabetic patients.
On the other hand, diabetic patients with advanced periodontal disease seem to experience poorer glycemic control and present with a greater risk for serious life-threatening cardiovascular and kidney complications (Mealey and Oates 2006). Recent meta-analyses demonstrate that nonsurgical periodontal therapy with or without the use of systemic or local antibiotics improves glycemic control, as expressed by the levels of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (Simpson et al. 2010, Teeuw et al. 2010). Thus, experimental, epidemiological, and clinical data have established over the years the concept of a "bidirectional relationship" between diabetes mellitus and periodontal disease (Lalla et al. 2010).
Pregnancy complications
Infections and inflammatory processes are established risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes. Even though a large body of evidence demonstrates a positive association between periodontitis and preterm birth or low birth weight, several negative epidemiological studies have been published as well (Bobetsis et al. 2006). Heterogeneity among studies with respect to population race/ethnicity, sample size, periodontal disease definitions, and additional methodological issues related to study design seems to account for the observed variability. Recent large multicenter trials reported that scaling and root planing provided during the second trimester did not result in a reduction of adverse negative obstetrical outcomes (Michalowicz et al. 2006, Offenbacher et al. 2009, Macones et al. 2010). However, the intervention studies demonstrated the safety of treating periodontal disease in the second or third trimester of pregnancy.
Epidemiological studies have documented a significant association between osteoporosis and periodontal disease. Clinical trials have demonstrated the relationship between osteoporosis, tooth loss, and alveolar bone loss, but conflicting data have also been reported in the literature (Geurs 2007). Part of the periodontal destruction may be attributed to systemic bone loss. Several underlying linking mechanisms have been proposed, including increased susceptibility of the jaw bone with low bone density, systemic factors of bone remodeling that modify the local periodontal tissue response, and the apparent involvement of estrogen deficiency in the release of bone-resorbing cytokines (Wactawski-Wende 2001). Although low systemic bone mass probably affects alveolar bone density, additional studies are required to determine the role of osteopenia and osteoporosis in the prevalence, severity, and progression of periodontal disease.
Rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis, an immune-mediated inflammatory disease with a distinct environmental and genetic background, also appears to be interrelated with advanced periodontitis (Bartold et al. 2005). Even though most epidemiological studies indicate a positive association, the strength of this association is uncertain because of inherent methodological inadequacies (de Pablo et al. 2009). Common inflammatory tissue and bone destruction pathways seem to be the underlying biological mechanisms connecting these two chronic diseases (Bartold et al. 2005, de Pablo et al. 2009). Scaling and root planing tend to reduce rheumatic clinical signs and symptoms. On the other hand, novel anti-inflammatory therapies for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis may also be applicable to the management of periodontal disease in the future (Bartold et al. 2005).
Chronic respiratory diseases
Microbiological and epidemiological studies also suggest an association between periodontitis and chronic respiratory diseases in special category populations such as institutionalized individuals, bedfast elderly people, or patients admitted to intensive care units (Scannapieco et al. 2003). Aspiration of pathogenic bacteria from the oropharynx to the lower respiratory tract may induce chronic respiratory pathological conditions, including nosocomial pneumonia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Enzymes related to periodontal disease and cytokines derived from periodontal tissues may also be involved in the pathogenesis of respiratory diseases (Scannapieco 1999). Intervention trials indicate that oropharyngeal decontamination or improvement of oral hygiene by mechanical or chemical means significantly reduces the frequency of respiratory infections in high-risk groups (Scannapieco et al. 2003). However, the role of periodontitis in the occurrence of respiratory diseases is still not completely elucidated, and studies have failed to demonstrate a reduction in the incidence of chronic respiratory diseases in elderly institutionalized individuals by means of oral interventions.
Chronic kidney disease
Finally, a novel association was proposed fairly recently between chronic kidney disease and periodontitis. Chronic kidney disease is characterized by a state of chronic inflammation, and systemically elevated inflammatory mediators have been suggested as the underlying biological link (Craig 2008). Studies on the prevalence of periodontitis in chronic kidney disease patients and trials associating periodontal destruction and renal parameters support a relation between the two chronic diseases (Scannapieco and Panesar 2008), but the findings are not always consistent.
Effects of bisphosphonates
The term "periodontal medicine" was originally proposed by Offenbacher (1996) to describe the impact of oral infection on systemic health. However, periodontal medicine is, from a semiological standpoint, much broader because, apart from the investigation of the relation between periodontal disease and other pathological conditions, it also explores interrelations between periodontology and medicine. In this broader context, periodontal medicine encompasses the recently evolved implications of bisphosphonate use in dentistry (Woo et al. 2006). Bisphosphonates are powerful antiosteoclastic agents, currently widely used in the management of osteoporosis, metastatic bone cancers, and malignant hypercalcemia. Clinicians should be aware of the potential detrimental effects of bisphosphonates in patients receiving dental interventions, including orthodontic therapy, implant placement, or tooth extractions. More important, bisphosphonates have been implicated in osteonecrosis of the jaws, a serious complication characterized by exposed, necrotic, non-healing bone (Woo et al. 2006). Dental treatment of patients receiving bisphosphonates should be performed under specific guidelines provided by related scientific associations.
Periodontal medicine
The effects of periodontal disease on other pathological conditions are thought to be the result of either a direct infectious insult or a low-grade systemic inflammatory response induced by periodontal infection. A direct effect is attained with migration of bacteria from subgingival periodontal biofilms to distant body sites through blood circulation. Transient bacteremias are monitored not only after periodontal therapeutic interventions, but also during regular periodontal probing, mastication, and even tooth brushing (Crasta et al. 2009).
Epidemiological and interventional studies so far demonstrate correlations of varying strengths between periodontal and systemic diseases but not a strict causal association. How then should clinicians translate this knowledge into everyday practice? Periodontal patients with at least one known major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, such as smoking, immediate family history, or dyslipidemia, should be advised to consider a medical evaluation. Diabetic patients should be warned about the risk of developing more extensive or severe periodontal problems, and those with moderate to advanced periodontitis should be notified about the emerging benefit of periodontal treatment for glycemic control. Pregnant women with periodontal disease should be informed that they may be at higher risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes. Similar informative discussions apply to the other systemic conditions that seem to be interconnected with periodontitis. However, on the basis of the currently available data, patients should be approached in a careful and informative way rather than in an aggressive, compulsory manner. Clinicians must impart available knowledge to patients or their relatives and discuss possible inquiries. Informing patients about the potential systemic health risks of periodontal disease is clearly different from adopting scare tactics to promote treatment acceptance and to increase the demand for dental care.
We are fortunate to be oral health care providers in the era of periodontal medicine. The scientific community has learned from the mistakes of the focal infection dogma and is now cautiously exploring this exciting and highly promising field. Certainly, substantial additional research is required to establish definitive conclusions on the nature of the association between periodontitis and systemic diseases. However, the development of periodontal medicine will undoubtedly strengthen the traditionally tight ties between dentistry and medicine.

I just got the "Ad Review Center" option on my Google AdSense account, and I decided to give it a whirl. I have Google ads on two sites: this one, and Pink Truth (my public awareness campaign against Mary Kay Cosmetics and similarly abusive multi-level marketing companies and pyramid schemes).
I didn't take my participation in the Ad Review process lightly. Because my sites often mention MLMs and other business opportunity scams, a lot of the Google ads that show up are offering those very scams! In the past, I tried to use the competitive ad filter to block these ads. And that ended up worse than ever. As fast as I could block certain web addresses, the exact same advertisers were using other web addresses which just forwarded to the original ones I had blocked.
The Ad Review Center seems to be a better option. You can block an entire advertiser's campaign… period. Continue reading

NFL prospect takes a NSFW 40-yard dash at scouting combine
NFL combine scouts got to see a little more out of defensive lineman Chris Jones than expected.
As he was finishing the 40-yard dash, which ran in just over five seconds, Jones lost control of his private parts and tumbled to the ground.
He explains quite simply to the nearby trainer, "My dick came out."
Everyone appreciates the effort you put in Chris, but when the scouts said they 'wanted to see your all,' we're not sure this is what they meant.

3DChimera - Connecting the Dots
Sintratec vs. Sinterit SLS 3D Printers
When you are searching for a new SLS 3D printer, it only makes sense to consider all of the options available on the market. At the moment, the two leaders in affordable SLS 3D printing are Sintratec and Sinterit. With names this close, it is not surprising when we find customers confused between the two brands.
How Strong Are SLS Printed Parts?
A question we often get asked is "How strong are SLS printed parts?".
One option is to have your Sintratec Kit prints parts out of a nylon (PA12) powder, which is fused together by a laser. This method raises questions of strength, because the printed part is not a solid chunk of nylon. On the flip side, sintered nylon is surprisingly tough and holds detailed features well.
How much Can You Fit In Your Sintratec Kit?
The Sintratec Kit is a compact but mighty desktop SLS printer that can be packed full of parts for printing. Since each layer takes about the same time, whether it's 1 part or 64 parts, it is more effective to utilize as much of the volume as possible. This means you can load up the build chamber to print overnight and it will be ready for cleanup and running the next day.
Thinking Outside the Box
Many people look at the Sintratec Kit and believe the build volume is too small for their application. It's true that the recommended 90 x 90 x 110 mm build volume would be too small to print many kinds of tall parts. However, there are still ways to print large parts on the Sintratec Kit!
Sintratec Kit Quality - Proof is in the Prints
Given the low price point of the Sintratec Kit, we often get customers who wonder if the Sintratec Kit is really able to deliver quality results.
You like HP MJF parts? Then you will LOVE Sintratec Desktop SLS parts!
If you have been watching the 3D printing industry at all over the last year, you could not miss the appearance of HP in the 3D printing market. Frankly, the quality and surface finish on thesep arts is fantastic. There is a drawback though...the machines are super expensive (think north of $100k) and the parts printed as a service are not a bargain either, as most service bureaus are charging a premium for access to this new printer.
Desktop SLS for FabLabs, Makerspaces & Innovation Studios
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D Printers have been available for years, but typically command huge price tags in the $100k-250k range. With that introduction of Desktop SLS 3D printing, a new era of 3D printing capabilities is upon us, for a price tag less than $6k.
Desktop SLS - Can a kit really deliver?
The Sintratec Kit is designed by professionals, for professional use.

Faust is a character in Trillion: God of Destruction.
Official DescriptionEdit
The girl who saved Zeabolos with the power of the Soul Grimoire. After acknowledging his unmistakable defeat, she made a deal to lend him the power to overthrow Trillion in exchange for his soul.
She is pragmatic, mostly serious, and very tight-lipped about her identity. She conducts mysterious research in her lab and has invented a variety of items in order to defeat Trillion.
Since the beginning, Faust was shown to be a very distant woman. She only spoke factually and was very aloof in every situation, even after the death of the Overlords, almost mechanical. However, as she spent more time with the people around her, she slowly mellowed out and started to care for them and even started to show some doubts about taking Zeabolos' soul. She comes to care for the Underworld and even almost dies when siphoning her magic powers into the Gem of Love. On her character route, she even willingly decides to become an Overlord to try and defend an Underworld unrelated to her, even with the risk of dying.
Favorite Gifts Edit
Each gift shows an event the first time it's given to Faust and the player receives 1,000,000 affection points and 25% heart points.
- Royal Detective
- Shifting Futon
Faust is a necromancer, with black hair and yellow eyes. Her clothing consists of a great white coat with a grey clothing inside and a red tie, she also wears black stockings and boots, she also has a hair pin which has the looks of an "Inverse" cross or a magician hat. Red Tie comes with Skeleton Mark.
Faust's hairpins also resemble the Katakana characters, ナナメ (Naname), which means diagonal. The character designer's name, "Kei Nanameda", also spells his name like this.
Zeabolos - Faust is a mysterioius who Zeabolos trusts and respects. She revived him and patched him up after getting torn apart by Trillion. She is the only person who knows how to deal with it but only in exchange for his soul. Zeabolos and Faust both similiar motives and mutually benefit from each other; Faust will keep Zeabolos' soul in exchange for her knowledge of defeating Trillion. Zeabolos would rather take the blame than put it on Faust when Ruche ridicules Faust.
Ashmedia- During the story arc, it is revealed that Ashmedia likes haging around with Faust, while Faust actually doesn't mind her company, unless she disturbs her in her research and studies.
Character Route EndingEdit
In her character's route ending, the Underworld cheers for her success in defeating Trillion. Soon after, Zeabolos finally reveals the contract they made, surprising both Baphonet and Uriel. Zeabolos orders them not to interfere as his final order.
In the chamber, Faust shows hesitation in following through, but Zeabolos encourages her to do so. Faust despairs, but Zeabolos tells her to be happy since her wish was about to come true. She instead agonizes, reminding him that she was going to take his soul. Zeabolos acknowledges it and reassures her that he would be by her side. As Zeabolos was drifting in nothingness, he hears Faust's cries, assuming it was her crying over his death. He finds out however, that it was her in the past, mourning the death of her father. Zeabolos realizes that he did not want to leave her alone despite wating her to accomplish her wish. He suddenly comes back to life, with Faust crying and admitting that she cannot take his life away for her own agenda. As Zeabolos gives her comfort, Faust's Grimoire glows and emits a light that envelops her with warmth. Faust remarks that it felt like her father's soul, leading Zeabolos to ask her what it was she wishes for. She cries, confessing that she has lost everything in her past and does not want to lose Zeabolos to the past as well. She keeps crying, but this time, with tears of joy. Zeabolos tells her to cry it all out, and once her tears dry, they can make a new contract.
Years passed and Zeabolos makes her "The Underworld's Prime Minister", she was seen speaking to Uriel about taking a seat in there "discussion", to which Zeabolos thinks it is a bad idea in the first place. After the discussion, Uriel takes Faust and dresses her in her wedding gown, the Underworld celebrates the new contract between Faust and Zeabolos, he asks her hand for marriage, the crowd applaud and admires Faust beauty in her wedding gown, to her embarassment, but Zeabolos admits she was always beautiful. They both made their vows as they enter their new life together as husband and wife.
Trivia Edit
- Her name derives from the story of Faust, a man who bargained his soul to the devil, mirroring the deal in the game between Faust and Zeabolos.
