Farewell to the first workplace of my life
30th of April marked my last working day at Kartbites, where I landed after getting the first job of my life as Software Engineer (Backend), while I was in third year of pursuing engineering in computer science and engineering.
Sometime around August of 2017, I was pretty sad one night, because campus placements were going on but I was not able to sit for most of the interviews because of low grades. Also, that particular day there was a recruitment drive for a role which I felt I could do very well because I had just done internship in the same domain at hasura after doing well in a coding course (IMAD) but alas, my grades didn't meet the requirements. Although, I had passion for programming, hardware hacking and all the geeky stuffs from the very childhood, but in campus placements all that matters is fucking GRADES!
It was late that very night when I received a message on LinkedIn from a person named Akshay Dua, regarding job opportunity at Multitech (later renamed Kartbites). The job description was very impressive and hence I replied instantly that "I'm interested!". Soon we followed up that night and he invited me for a quick interview on Google Hangouts. It went very smooth and he mostly enquired about my past experiences and what made me like Computer Science in general and I totally liked the conversation. I couldn't sleep the entire night because I had a gut feeling that I've just got the first job of my life, and later it indeed turned out to be true after another round of interview with a person named Indra Dutt.
I started working in the month of October,2017. When I started, I realized how less my knowledge was, but luckily Akshay taught me everything from scratch! I still remember on the first day he taught us about Regular expressions, and the entire day and few more, we just installed Arch Linux on the new laptops, which taught as a lot about Computer Architecture. I will always cherish joining Kartbites and meeting Akshay as one of the most significant event of my life! I'm truly blessed to have a mentor like him who is so knowledgeable yet so down to earth, with whom I shared almost everything be it professional or personal, and he always was there to listen to and give advice. I feel, what I learnt in Kartbites I didn't learn in 4 years of my b.tech. Being in an early stage startups can be life changing if you truly want to become a good software developer. It gives the golden opportunities to explore, make important decisions and most importantly to try,fail and then learn! You can build the product from scratch which makes you learn the process of development end to end, this aspect I believe is very important! Hence, I would suggest this to a fresher –> When starting career, choose mentor/work and not brand name. Small startups can provide this, not MNCs!
Also, I should discuss about some hardships I faced. If you work remote then at times you might feel lonely. This is excruciating as you will see your friends and classmates enjoy at weekends while you will either be with you family or alone. So it is very important that you know this aspect and make apt decision for yourself as to how you can deal with it. How I dealt with it is, I travelled often, spent more family time, bike rides (oh I bought my first time with my salary!) and played/exercised a lot! Another issue you might face is that, you won't always be spoon-fed with guidelines. You need to be a self learner, which again, returns you with the fruit of awesome fundamental understanding. Also, the time saved while not having to travel to office, can be utilized to learn more and more!
To conclude, Kartbites gave me the best start to my career that I could ever dream of! Like all the good things, my tenure at Kartbites also has come to an end and it's time to bid farewell. Hasta la vista :)

We've developed a new progression scale for English. Our series of progression maps respresents our view of how learners progress in reading and writing.
The progression maps are divided into twelve 'steps' of increasing demand to create the Pearson Progression Scale.
We've done this because we know it's important for you to understand and monitor progress of your students, to ensure they're on track to achieve their potential at GCSE. The removal of national curriculum levels, a new grading structure at GCSE (9-1 replacing A*-G) and the emphasis on measuring progress from 11-16 through Progress 8 has made this even more important.
Our ActiveLearn Digital Service is organised into six Tiers based on those progression steps. The table below indicates which ability profile (i.e. which 'steps') each tier is most appropriate for.

Something Borrows, Something New in Rio!
NSWIS canoe slalom star Ian Borrows has booked himself a spot in the semi-finals following an impressive Olympic debut in Rio.
12 months after missing selection in Australia's world championships team. Borrows made up for lost time with a stellar performance through his two heat runs.
Borrows was near flawless and heads into the semis ranked fifth overall.
Fellow NSWIS athlete Lucien Delfour has missed the semi-finals in the men's kayak K1 event after incurring a 50 second penalty at Gate 20 in his second run.
His best time, recorded in his first run, finished just outside the top 15 required to progress to the semis.
NSWIS provided Australia's two representatives in an eventful women's cycling road race.
Amanda Spratt finished 15th, just over four minutes behind Dutch gold medallist Anna van der Breggen. Rachel Neylan was slightly further back in 22nd.
Australia is well in medal contention in the team's eventing at the equestrian centre, featuring NSWIS riders Shane Rose and Stuart Tinney,
Rose and his horse CP Qualified helped boost their standing with a solid performance in the dressage. and sits 13th overall in the individual rankings.
There was heartbreak for NSWIS judoka Nathan Katz, who was eliminated from the 66kg division in one of the closest encounters of these Olympics so far.
Just one point separated Katz and Morrocco's Imad Bassou in a bout which went down to the final seconds.

When Great Britain, which is the financial ruling power of the 19th century, was drained financially during World War I, United States became a hegemon in 1945. It had a military strength that was dominant or uncomparable. It was for twenty-five years, on top of the world. During the Great Depression, United States emerged as the leader of the world economically. But it did not open its market to investments internationally and foreign commodities were not accepted into its market. It did not want to rescue other countries of the world for their debts. United States wanted to protect its finances by spending for its own. At the current financial problem when United States had debts, China recapitalized the debts of US. It became the creditor. To rescue its economy, Obama make use of the Beijing consensus where in the government uses the taxpayers money to encourage private investors to strengthen its financial system. The Obama government opened its international market and benefits from it. Then it limited the buying of commodities and conducted research for studies.
The government improved its energy sector. Through these ways, the lives of the people are given more emphasis. To what degree is the government effective in providing the needs of the people is the first priority of the government. But although the United States declined economically at the present, a counter cyclical asset, the greater the United States attain influence and power because larger economic and political power units influences are increased when international cooperation tends to break during crisis. Next reason why United States gains influence and power is its regular number of the people living in United States. And the last reason is through its political stability. It has one of the most enduring and oldest nation-states, compared to China that suffered a communist dominion, a severe famine, and a Cultural Revolution. France experienced five Constitutions since1799. So, only United States has had a political stability.

To become the next hegemon, China should try to established economic stability. Its banking system must be improved. It must try its best to create a well-patterned domestic system of its finances. It must also promote and maintain global economy. It must always rescue the countries that are in great debts. The lives of the people must be given priority. It must make the rural population at a higher level of living or it must give its people in urban and rural a comfortable life, not on its poverty level. Socially, China must increase its population, not a one child policy. The greater is the population the stronger is the force logistically. China must give emphasis also to its military strength. A weak country is easy to dominate.
Politically, China must build strong nation, with territories well-defined and well-protected. The president must enforce its law righteously. National interest must also be practiced than foreign relationships. China must develop its political stability by making its country strong against any foreign dominion. There must be no fighting about culture. Every Chinese must observe his cultural heritage. Then the country must be materially sufficient, so it can supply equally to its people the food they need. The law of the land which is the Constitution must be well-defined and in detailed. There must be one constitution only that will last for a lifetime. Geopolitical power is better if it does not ruin the financial stability of the country.
I believe Jonathan Holstag is more correct because China cannot be a new America because China cannot do all the things America did in the 1930s. Although China has $2 trillion worth of budget for payment of debts, if it will pull back its assistance because of uncertainty and the mode of payments will take for a long-term process, then how it will be a hegemon. China doesn't have well-developed financial system domestically. So, its rural situation will remain to be poor and the whole country will be poor as long as there is no equal distribution of wealth among the people. According to Holstag, United States had a innovative and creative place that shows the dynamism of United States in the 20th century. China is not like United States because larger countries have a great influence on other countries. United States has no one – child policy. It is true, China has large number of population, but if one – child policy will continue its population after so many years will decrease. China is like new America as of today because China is afraid that it is represented in international institutions dominated by the United States. China's real place in the world economy is not seen in its control in the IMF and World trade and to its part in the economic firmness. China can't be America because the standard of living in China is very low compared to United States. China is still a poor country although it is believed to have a great wealth. Therefore, I could say that it is difficult for China to be a new America because Chinese economy is toward state capitalism. The model capitalism of China is different form that of the 1930's of the United States. The whole situation of China is still on poverty line because many of its rural inhabitants are poor. America can be a new China because Obama's government is doing the Beijing Consensus: like controlling its financial group, holding over its policies regarding buying of goods, developing the sector of energy and choosing imports of commodities and assistance. A country becomes a hegemon when it is financially powerful for world economic stabilization, when it is on top of the world militarily, when it has an old and lasting nation – states, when its population is fast increasing and a wide territory.

With the amount of activities plus food and lodging, it isn't hard to see why some horse riding holidays may cost you a bit more than you'd expect. But fear not! There are cheap horse riding holidays available all over the world. You will still have quality lessons from the riding school of your choice, with basic or shared accommodation and meals. What's even greater about a horse riding vacation like this is that you get to make new friends easier. And isn't that what your horse riding experience should be about?
While horse riding is often thought as an activity that comes with a hefty price tag, this isn't necessarily true.
Tango, soccer, and polo often spring to mind when thinking of Argentina. While it's true that they are part of the nation's identity, horsemanship, estancias, and the gauchos are also an integral part of its culture.
As the country with just as many horses as citizens, Mongolia is a place with a strong equestrian tradition. For Mongolians riding a horse is as popular as riding a bike in the Western world. Mongolian children learn to ride a horse as early as three years old, often becoming jockeys at the age of seven to eight years.

Watch our Neneriko666 porn videos, so he starts fucking them and banging their slits exactly like good whores until he ends up ejaculating and coming on them ! One of the guys is going to use this pipe to touch and fuck this doggystyle whore. Then, the guy puts on his shank his pussy and pushes the hooker by the same opportunity who asks for more. Once in the room, the couple starts a series of preliminary whores starting with a guy licking and touching his mother-in-law's pussy so she's on all fours ; then with her mouth as a pipemaid, she gives herself up to get her mouth stuffed for a pipe. Turlute and foufoune eating follow each other before a big mold fuck in all positions to finish with a deluge of juice on this bitch's body. Afterwards, she gets her pussy dismantled from behind and ends up getting fucked seriously until the guy ends up ejaculating totally like a sick person. Then, two of these bitches put themselves in sixty-nine for caresses and a fingering done with ardour ; then this 69, the fourth caresses herself and licks at the same time the holes of these nymphos, which makes them dripping in abundance until they end up obtaining a hellish pleasure !

union terrace car park deal 'sealed'
Like a lot of cocktails invented by the British military industrial complex, grog was essentially just spiked medicine. The official Royal Navy recipe was simple: half a barrel of water, half a barrel of rum, and a quart of lime juice. The rum "sterilized" (sort of) the water, provided a mild pain killer, and helped the average jack tar to NOT think about his grim lot in life.
What he meant, of course, was this: once you done something, it done, and you can do anything to change it. Like buying fake Liverpool signed shirts, and discovering too late that the moving finger that wrote "Steven Gerrard" in bold letters under that rampant Liver Bird was no one of the sort. Having writ, it moves on so swiftly you can see it for dust, taking all your cash and leaving you holding a worthless piece of junk that, cry how you might, you stuck with..
I really regret that you won't be hearing any bird song anytime soon, either, but at least you've got that wonderful musical cawing of the crows to keep your mornings bright. And, of course, I do expect that as you've grown in stature and brainpower you've learned to deal with the feral cats, your one time nemesis, but at best occupying a kind of ratty niche in your era of ascendancy. As for the big cats really scary ones, tiger, lion, leopard, jaguar must be as remote to you as the mammoths were to us.
Wristbands that are used at events like these are often kept for years by visitors, as a memento or keepsake, so knowing that the bands aren't going to be cut off and thrown out once used is just another reason to apply them as a marketing tool. Some companies use the wristband customization forum to print bounce back opportunities for their customers, suggesting that their "next visit" will be at a discounted rate. For sponsors, using wristbands as a coupon or discount voucher will drive business, after the event, to their locations to redeem their wristband for free or discounted product and services..
Michel Fran the former Port au Prince police chief who along with Cedras helped orchestrate the coup against Aristide. Attorney's Office in Miami. An avid Sweet Micky fan, Fran adopted that moniker as his nickname.From cab drivers in Miami to slum dwellers in Port au Prince, Sweet Micky enthusiasts say they are withholding judgment on his politics.
The texture is what really made these baked goods, (or baked greats in my opinion) number one. Each cookie is soft, moist and warm as if they just came straight out of the oven. Perhaps, it was the hot day that warmed them but either way, it worked in their favor.

nient quarto edition published by Bekker at Berlin. The study of Aristotle had so much ceased in the 18th century (in consequence of the unjust depreciation of the scholastic philosophy,) that no complete edition of Aristotle's works was published between 1654, the date of the last of Duval's editions, and 1831, the date of Bekker's edition. An edition, commenced by Buhle in 1791, as a part of the Bipont classics, and of which five volumes appeared, was stopped by the disturbed state of the continent at that period, and was never resumed. After the peace the celebrated Immanuel Bekker was employed by the University of Berlin to collate the principal manuscripts of Aristotle scattered over the various public libraries of Europe, and to found upon them a new edition of the text. This laborious work was executed by him, and the entire works of Aristotle, with a new text based upon the manuscript readings, were published by him in 1831, in two quarto volumes, the text being printed in a small type, arranged in double columns, and the various readings subjoined to the page. A list of the manuscripts collated is prefixed to the first volume, and a description of them has been promised, but has never appeared. Mr. Bekker's main purpose in this edition seems to have been to adhere faithfully to the manuscripts, without being very solicitous about the meaning. Hence his text will admit, in many places, of improvement by editors of separate treatises, looking to the sense of the words, and combining explanation of the text with its emendation. He has preserved the divisions of chapters in the old editions, which are sometimes of great length, and has neither numbered the sections, nor even preserved such divisions where they had been previously introduced by others. Thus he has not even numbered the paragraphs in the second book of the Aristotelian Economic. The facility of reference to Aristotle has therefore, unfortunately, not been facilitated by Bekker's edition.
In the Oxford edition the sections have been numbered throughout, as had been previously done for the treatises included in Buhle's edition, in Schneider's edition of the History of Animals and the Politics, in Zell's edition of the Ethics, &c. We trust that these numbers will be preserved in the editions of single treatises which may be published hereafter, and we commend this matter to the consideration of our German readers, in case we should be so fortunate as to obtain any.
Sylburg's indexes, one an index verborum, the other an index rerum, are adapted to the paragraphs of the Oxford edition, and the latter index is very full and useful.
At the end of the Politics, Neumann's collection of the fragments of Aristotle's woXireTcu is reprinted in the Oxford edition. Perhaps Neumann's collection is hardly good enough to deserve the honour of being embalmed in the excellent typography of the Oxford press.
Besides Bekker's edition of Aristotle, and the Oxford reprint, two other editions of the complete works have lately appeared. One is among the small Tauchnitz classics, the other in one large volume published at Leipzig in 1843, by Weise. The text is taken from the old editions.
Lexilogus, or a Critical Examination of the Meaning and Etymology of numerous Greek Words and Paraphrases, intended principally for Homer and Hesiod. By Philip Buttmann, LL.D. Translated and edited by the Rev. J. R. Fishlake, late Fellow of Wadham College, Oxford. Second Edition, revised. 1840. 1 vol. Svo.
We notice this translation, although not of very recent date, because we are not sure that the Lexilogus of Buttmann is as well known in this country as it deserves to be. It is unfortunately an unfinished work, although it is complete as far as it goes. The author's intention was to proceed regularly through Homer, explaining the etymology and signification of all the more difficult words in succession. This work comprises explanations of such words up to the second book: but his further progress was stopped by ill health. In the original, the words are arranged, (as in Bp. Blomfield's glossary to ^Eschylus), in the order in which they occur in Homer. This order would perhaps have been convenient, if the original design had been completed; but Mr. Fishlake has augmented the facility of reference by arranging the words in an alphabetical order. He has likewise consulted the convenience of his English readers, by subjoining to the text, translations of the passages in Schneider's Lexicon which Buttmann refers to.
Nobody is infallible in etymology, and the discovery of the successive meanings of words: the greatest philologists sometimes err in these matters. But (without meaning to affirm that Buttmann is never wrong) we consider his Lexilogus as a model of etymological and linguistical exposition both as to method and matter; and we believe that no student of the Homeric language can fail to derive important assistance and instruction from it. The articles are however tolerably complete dissertations on the words treated of, and they generally illustrate passages of later writers as well as of Homer.
The translation is carefully and accurately executed; and, as far as. we have examined it, leaves nothing to be desired.
Philological Society Of London.—We have much satisfaction in recording the successful progress of this Society, which, was established (under the presidency of the Bishop of St. David's) in the summer of 1842, and commenced the printing of its proceedings at the end of that year. The 12th number (the last which has been distributed amongst the members) bears the date of June 23. Amongst the papers read before the Society, and abstracted in the proceedings, the following appear to be peculiarly deserving of attention. A notice of European Grammars, and Lexicons of the Sanskrit Language, by Prof. Wilson, in No. 3, and papers on certain inflexions of the old English adjective, and on English Gentile nouns, by Edwin Guest, Esq., in Nos. 6 and 10. Mr. F. W. Newman's paper on the geography of Scythia according to Herodotus, No 7, and Mr. Garnett's papers on the languages and dialects of the British islands, and on the relations of the Picts and Gael with the other tribes of Great Britain, in Nos. 9 and 11, are likewise instructive. Mr. Donaldson has also an elaborate dissertation on the number in Plato's Republic (p. 546) in No. 8.
Alien Aeologisciii: Zeitung.—Under this title a Journal devoted to the illustration of the remains of ancient art, was founded at the beginning of this year at Berlin. It is edited by the distinguished archaeologist Edward Gerhard. This Journal, which was indeed a desideratum in the periodical literature of Germany, resembles in its plan the archaeological Journals of Rome and Naples, but its usefulness is enhanced by the elegant lithographs of the most important works of ancient art, which are discussed in its pages. The Archaeologkche Zeitung appears in quarterly parts, and the two which have already been published, contain among others the following interesting articles.
1. Ueber einen Marmorkopf des Fursten Talleyrand, by Th. Panof ka.
2. Das Monumentum Ancyranum; Herstellung desselben aus Griechischem Text, by J. Franz. 3. Das sogenannte Monument des Sesostris bei Smyrna, by H. Kiepert. 4. Das Harpyienmonument von Xanthus, gegenwdrtig im Brittischen Museum, by Th. Panofka. 5. Pompeianische Wandgem'dlde, by the Editor. 6. Ueber das Theseion zu Allien, by E. Curtius. 7. Griechische Inschriften, by L. Ross.
Athens.—In consequence of the financial embarrassments of the kingdom of Greece, the public expenditure has been reduced in various ways, and also by doing away with several offices. We are sorry to see, that L. Ross, and H. N. Ulrichs, two of the most distinguished professors in the University of Athens, are among those who have lost their appointments.—The sepulchral monument of K. 0. Miiller, consisting of a lofty pillar of Pentelic marble, with an inscription by Philippos Joannu, has now been finished for the last few months. It stands on the hill of Colonus, and is surrounded by newly planted trees. The expences of the monument have been defrayed, by contributions from the members of the University of Athens.
Abkken Wiihelji.—This distinguished archaeologist, a native of Osnabriick in Westphalia, died at Munich on the 28th of January, 1843, at the early age of twenty-nine. He was one of the secretaries of the Archaeological Institute at Rome, whither he had gone after the completion of his studies at Berlin, in 1836. While in Italy, he devoted himself with unremitting zeal to the study of ancient art, mythology, history and topography, and his extensive knowledge and great talent made him soon fee] himself at home in the illustrious circle of artists, antiquaries and scholars assembled at Rome. After the publication of several essays and papers in the Memoirs of the Archaeological Institute, he resolved to publish the results of his labours in a systematic work on the History and Antiquities of Middle Italy, previous to the dominion of the Romans. In the spring of 1842 Abeken had made sufficient progress in his undertaking to return to Germany, and begin printing his work. But when the MS. was finished, and the printing commenced, his career was cut short by his untimely death, partly in consequence of his great mental exertions, and partly of the change of climate. His work however, has just appeared at Stuttgard and Tubingen under the title, MUlelitalien von den Zeiten Romischer Herrschaft, nach seinen Denkmalen dargestellt. 1 vol. 8vo ; the care of seeing it through the press having been undertaken by his friend Sulpiz Boisseree. Abeken was one of the most promising and indefatigable investigators of antiquity, and his death is to be lamented as a severe loss to the cause of learning.
Berlin Academy.—The Transactions of the Berlin Academy for the year 1840, published in 1842, contain the following philological and historical memoirs. 1. Zumpt upon the state and increase of population in antiquity, p. 1—93, an elaborate paper, of which the first 17 pages relate to Greece, and the rest to Italy and the Roman Empire. In the former part of this dissertation, the author combats Mr. Clinton's conclusions, in the appendix to his second volume of the Fasti Hellenici, and maintains that the population of Greece was at its maximum during the Persian war, that it began from this period to decline in consequence of the frequent wars, the increase of luxury, and the prevalence of the practice of iraiiepaa-ria; and that the desolation of Greece was quite independent of the effects of the Roman conquest. With regard to Italy, Mr. Zumpt in like manner thinks that the period of its greatest population is to be fixed before the Punic wars; and that the second Punic war was a turning point to Italy, as the Peloponnesian war was to Greece, with respect to the number of the people, (p. 23). 2. Hoffmann on the relation of the sovereign power to the political notions of its subjects, p. 93. 3. V. Raumer. Lord Bolingbroke and his philosophical, theological, and political works, p. 123. 4. The theogony of John Tzetzes,
Antichita Della Sicilia.—The fifth volume of this great and important work, edited by Dominico lo Faso Pietrasanta, Duca di Serradifalco, appeared a few months ago, and completes the work.
Rome.—M. C. G. Cobet of Leiden has made some of the most happy discoveries in the MSS. of the Vatican library, for amending the texts of Simplicius, Diogenes Laertius and Dion Cassius. His collection of unedited scholia on Euripides, and of numerous fragments of ancient writers, whose works were hitherto believed to be entirely lost, will create, it is said, a great sensation among scholars.
Dobpat.—The University of this place has lately been the scene of great agitation, in consequence of the rigour with which the Russian government has enforced the law of the country against some

In the long-awaited follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize-winning Gulag, acclaimed journalist Anne Applebaum delivers a groundbreaking history of how Communism took over Eastern Europe after World War II and transformed in frightening fashion the individuals who came under its sway.At the end of World War II, the Soviet Union to its surprise and delight found itself in control of a huge swath of territory in Eastern Europe. Stalin and his secret police set out to convert a dozen radically different countries to Communism, a completely new political and moral system. In Iron Curtain, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Anne Applebaum describes how the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe were created and what daily life was like once they were complete. She draws on newly opened East European archives, interviews, and personal accounts translated for the first time to portray in devastating detail the dilemmas faced by millions of individuals trying to adjust to a way of life that challenged their every belief and took away everything they had accumulated. Today the Soviet Bloc is a lost civilization, one whose cruelty, paranoia, bizarre morality, and strange aesthetics Applebaum captures in the electrifying pages of Iron Curtain. Download and start listening now!
"One of the most compelling but also serious works on Europe's past to appear in recent memory…In her relentless quest for understanding, Applebaum shines light into forgotten worlds of human hope, suffering, and dignity."
Washington Post
"In this epic but intimate history, Ms. Applebaum offers us windows into the lives of the men and sometimes women who constructed the police states of Eastern Europe. She gives us a glimpse of those who resisted. But she also gives us a harrowing portrait of the rest—the majority of Eastern Europe's population, who, having been caught up in the continent's conflicts time and time again, now found themselves pawns in a global one."
Wall Street Journal
"Remarkable…a book that reanimates a world that was largely hidden from Western eyes, and that many people who lived and suffered in it would prefer to forget…Iron Curtain gives us some idea of what it was like to be trapped in the Soviet experiment, to be a witness to the demolition and reconstruction of one's environment."
New Yorker
"Illuminating…Human beings, as Ms. Applebaum rousingly concludes, do not acquire 'totalitarian personalities' with ease."
"Magisterial…Anne Applebaum is exceptionally well qualified to tell this story. Her deep knowledge of the region, breadth of view and eye for human detail makes this as readable as her last book, on the Gulag."
Daily Mail
" I, like many others, thought that liberation meant happy days were ahead, but that was definitely not the case in the Eastern Bloc countries. Certainly gives me a higher respect for the people who lived through it and finally prevailed. "
" A really nice introduction to the topic--thorough, well-organized, and largely free of cant. "
" Good history lesson and some stuff from the cold war I actually remember like the invasion of Chekoslovakia and the eventual fall of the wall. "
" If you'd never read anything about the first decade of the Cold War in Eastern Europe, this would be a good place to start. The basic story is laid out, and it is well told. Applebaum has synthesized a great deal of research, and knows when to insert an anecdote to liven things up. Although not as broad as Tony Judt's Postwar, and nowhere near as thought-provoking, it kept my interest to the end. "
" If one has ever wondered how the eastern part of Europe following WWII became the Eastern Communist Block this book answers that question. In a post-war environment, did countries devastated by war have any choice what came next? Did the countries agree with the communist philosophy? What role did the other great powers, US and Great Britain, play in this reconstruction period? Anne Applebaum does a magnificent job answering these questions, defining the context of change and how the past of these countries impacted their future, immediately following the war and later. While the Soviets occupied 8 countries, Ms. Appplebaum focuses her book on three: Poland, Hungary and Eastern Germany, with references to the other countries as the examples support the subject over the ten year period from 1945 to 1955. She approaches the communist experiment from a political and sociological perspective. The reader comes to understand totalitarianism: dominant ideology, single ruling party, secret police prepared to use terror, monopoly on information, and planned economy. One of the first quotes sets the tone: everything within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state. In the first half of the book she discusses chapter by chapter how the USSR dismantled what had survived the war and attempted to replace it with what would support the totalitarian philosophy of total control. Using very poignant stories of individuals the author shows how hopeful these countries were following the war and how mislead they became as the Soviets strove to create the "Soviet Man." From the very beginning when "ethnic cleansing," the same type of ethnic cleansing that was the reason for WWII, continued through the take over of social organizations (women's groups, YMCAs, Boy/Girl Scouts, Debate clubs, etc.), churches, schools,radio, police forces, economic systems the author leads the reader through the dismantling of not only societies but history as the Soviets, which I equate with Stalin, strove to create the Marxist utopia. By the end of the part one I was in total disbelief that the world could have stood by and allowed another Hitler like personality, Stalin, to have his way with these countries and their people, much in the same way Hitler did, and did nothing. Was it fear of another World War? Was it the world's problem to solve? The second part of the book discusses what the countries tried to do for themselves, who the reactionary enemies were, the internal enemies, the reluctant collaborators and passive opponents and the prices they paid. Applebaum shows the stages these people set for the revolutions that began to take place in the mid-1950s following Stalin's death, revolutions that continued in greater and lesser degrees all the way to 1989 when the wall was dismantled. After a thorough review of totalitarianism as it existed in this period the question is posed: can totalitarianism ever exist successfully? In my opinion it depends how you define "exist." The reality is it still exists in countries today, North Korea comes to mind. But the existence of the people in that regime, and others like it, is not much different than that of the people in the Eastern Block countries, an oppressed existence. However, the 8 countries have since gone on to grow and prosper, recovering much of their history and original identities, so even with adversity and tragedy there is hope....Ms. Applebaum is to be commended for her extensive research and for boiling down that research into coherent, manageable, easily readable format. This is not a book for the faint of heart but for those seeking to understand how entire countries could presumably be co-opted into a way of thinking and believing. "
" Simply outstanding. An amazing achievement of research and story-telling. Should be required reading for every university student. "
" Well-written and researched account of how institutions of 'civil society' in countries under Soviet domination following WWII became slowly taken over and/or eliminated by communist cadres and secret police. "
" Good fill in the gaps in my info of the history of that time "
" May not be of general interest, but for me it provided a completely new perspective. The brutality of "high Stalinism" was mostly in brainwashing the young minds...all this in the atmosphere of immense fear. Thankfully the experiment failed. "
" Excellent work by Anne Applebaum, as per the course. A must read for people interested in 20th century history. "
" This is a fine book that documents many facets of the attempt to impose communism on the nations of eastern Europe after World War II. It is well written and well documented. Even though the broad strokes of this period are familiar, this work fills in details that make the tragedy real "
" Yet another reminder of the fact that I'm so very happy not to have lived through World War II in Eastern Europe. "
" It certainly convinced me how glad I am not to have lived there and then! "
" Excellent - really illuminating and very dense with information. One of my favorite books of the past year. "
" A gem of a book depicting the tragic history of many peoples and nations....we cannot afford to forget. "
Anne Applebaum is a columnist for the Washington Post and Slate, covering US and international politics. She is also the director for politics at the Legatum Institute in London, and in 2012–2013 will hold the Phillipe Roman chair in History and International Affairs at the London School of Economics.

Dear Reader, This is Dr. Anthony Centore, with Thrive Boston Counseling. I was just asked to write a couple short ideas on how to create / promote happiness in life, for potential publication somewhere (I don't even know where). Anyway, as I send the quotes out into the ether of the publication world, I thought I would also share them with you here. I hope they are helpful! Be Well, Anthony Happiness Quote 1: Many persons trade immediate happiness for future pain (example: charging something you can't afford to a credit card). Other people are professionals at delaying gratification, trading current pain at the hope of future happiness (example: working 50-plus hours a week). One key to happiness is to discover things that make you happy now, and will also promote happiness later. Happiness Quote 2: Happiness is often about having perspective. When something is not going well in life, the happy person will say, "I lost my job. However, I still have … [Read more...]
Happiness Tips and Techniques: Finding Daily Joy and Lasting Fulfillment
In the new bestseller book "Happier: Learn the Secrets to Daily Joy and Lasting Fulfillment," Author and Harvard Professor Tal Ben-Shahar refers to 4 styles for how we tend to lead our lives: 1) Hedonist: Present benefit that causes future detriment. A hedonist focuses on enjoying the present while ignoring potential negative consequences of his/her actions. 2) Rat Racer: Present sacrifice for future benefit. Rat racers enslave themselves to the present in pursuit of a better future. They are masters of delaying gratification. 3) Nihilist: Present sacrifice that causes future detriment. Nihilists have lost their love for life. A Nihilist, according to Tal Ben-Shahar, neither enjoys the moment nor has a sense of future purpose. 4) Happier: Present benefit that causes future benefit. Happy people live according to the knowledge that activities can bring enjoyment in the present and lead to a fulfilling future. The 4 styles can be summarized simply: … [Read more...]

k.a.c. sailed the ocean blue....
ahhhh.... talk about a hiatus from my blog.... I apologize! Grad school is no cup of tea. It sucks the life out of you! But, by popular demand from some of my readers, I have decided to return to my Mac Book and reflect on the cray world around us....
As I said grad school is uber-demanding, so my parents so kindly offered to take me on a cruise to Bermuda during the first half of my "summer vacation" (two weeks off.... how generous BU)! How could I decline the invite? Armed with SPF 45, a stack of classics by Chelsea Handler, and several dozen sundresses, I climbed aboard the Norwegian Spirit docked in good ole Southie.
Minutes after embarking My parents and I became cliché cruisers and hit the buffet! Before I even surveyed the selection of food, I couldn't help but notice how ENORMOUS my fellow passengers were!! Now, I know there is an obesity problem in America... I watch the Biggest Loser... but, I wasn't aware of how ridiculously O.O.C. the obesity problem has become!
I suppose an "all you can eat" option is exactly what over-eaters are looking for in a vacation, but really?? Do you need to consume 3,486 calories at breakfast?? Is it necessary to pay $16 extra per day for unlimited soda?? The flip side to the health problems of those weighing 4 bills... I have never felt my comfortable flaunting myself in a bikini... definitely a self-image boost for the average folk.
I have to say the cruise was the ultimate mental health break from PT school. I got my first tan since leaving my poolside drinking days in the Star City (yikes... have I really been above the Mason Dixon line for 2 years???). The same sun that gave me a warm, "healthy" glow also bleached out my polish!! Now I know I may be over-reacting a touch, but I am an addict of OPI's Shorts Story... I choose it every time I hit the local Vietnamese nail shop for my summer pedis. It is (in my opinion) the most perfect shade of pink. Now it has faded to this icky pink that gives me nightmarish flashbacks to the paw prints on the walls of the Phi Mu Quad. Sadly the sun bleached my polish, but did NOT bleach out my roots... uhhhh.... I mean I am a natural blonde. ;)
I have to give major props to the books I read on the pink sands of Horseshoe Bay....
My Horizontal Life and Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang both by Chelsea Handler
A Little Bit Wicked by Kristen Chenoweth
Wicked (the novel) by Gregory Maguire
Commencement by J. Courtney Sullivan
How is it that I can read 5 books on week of vacation and can't manage to even get through a single chapter in PT text book?? If you know the secret, please, leave it in the comments section!

Coconut and Orange flavored crisp cookies covered in powdered sugar are a lighter, healthier option for a Christmas cookie. Healthy Cookies to the rescue.
Every once in a while I find a cookie recipe that is worth adding to our traditional Christmas cookies. When I first saw a recipe for Coconut-Orange Snowballs in Gourmet magazine, I knew I wanted to make it but make them healthy cookies. They were incredible. Sometimes snowball cookies are really dry, not these. They have lovely coconut and orange flavoring, a perfect balance. They were quickly added to our traditional Christmas cookie list.
I started trying to "lighten" them last year. They were a bear. I've been through many different versions and finally decided to go with this one. It is not as low-fat as I normally try to make but the integrity of the original cookie is there. That ended up being the most important part to me. You have to use "real, full-fat" butter. Do not substitute! I repeat, do not substitute! I tried but yuck! Forget it. Keep these in the freezer and have one or two for a treat at night.
To make healthy cookies, I did lower the sugar considerably though. Yeah! I swamped out sweetened coconut for unsweetened flaked coconut and I cut the confectioners sugars. So that is a mini win for our health. Considering we only make these once a year, I'm OK with the nutritional value on them. One bite and you will realize they are worth it.
Coconut Orange Snowballs are healthy cookies, Santa would love to eat. Be sure to keep a plate out for him. His little elves will also enjoy them. Spread the love and make them for your neighbors too. Just remember the dough has to sit for an hour. Every year I forget until I start to make them. Then I hit my head against the wall because I should have started them earlier in the day. You would think I would learn. I've only been making them for almost 10 years. As my daughter would say "Turn your brain on Mom". They are worth that little bit of aggravation.

Vande Velde - The Bionic Man
American's recovery on track after surgery
Nearly three weeks after crashing out of the Giro d'Italia, Christian Vande Velde is back on the bike and searching for form in the Spanish Pyrenees.
Related Articles
The Garmin-Tranisitions' Tour leader broke his collarbone in the third stage of the Giro (pictured right) - the sixth occasion he's suffered that injury in his career - but he has spent the last six days training at altitude in Spain. He'll remain there until June 9, before starting the Tour de Suisse two days later.
"It's going well and it's good to be up in the mountains riding my bike," Vande Velde told Cyclingnews from his training base near Andorra.
"I have a soigneur with me and Matt Wilson comes out soon. I'm just trying to recruit as many people as possible, and then my family are coming up too."
Vande Velde's Giro crash mirrored last season's events when he crashed out of the race but with far more serious injuries. That year he sustained three fractured vertebrae, a cracked pelvis in addition to the two broken ribs, meaning that this year's recovery period has been much shorter and far less painful.
"With a collarbone break you don't have to take any real time off - it's just for mental wellbeing - but I was on the trainer after two days."
"But when I crashed I just wanted to crawl up into a ball and go away. I had my days when I was down but you just pick yourself up and dust yourself down. There's no reason crying about it."
Vande Velde's collarbone surgery was carried out in Belgium and he now has matching metal plates in each shoulder, something he joked about with his friends and family. "I'm bionic now, right?" he asks.
"Overall I can't complain about the recovery. It's going really well and I've been doing five hour rides," he explained.
Still, without hard racing in his legs from the Giro, Vande Velde is aware that his training programme has been about making the best of a bad situation; the pressure isn't telling in the American's attitude, however.
"You can't simulate the Giro in training. You do that and you're going to kill yourself. I've got a different plan now and I'm training really well here. I've got way more fitness than last year. Last year I rode the Tour of Suisse with just two weeks of training in my legs. I couldn't even ride up my driveway at one point because of the pain."
The inevitable question therefore is how well will Vande Velde do in the Tour come July. Having finished fourth in 2008 and eighth the following year, the team will be looking for him to compete amongst the best.
"My goal is to do my personal best. Has my preparation been hindered? Yes. But by how much I don't know. I got top ten last year and I was in a much worse place than I am now.
"I'm just going to do my best. I'm not doing anything earth shattering in training but each day I'm getting a little bit better."

Ben Constable-Maxwell, Head of Sustainable and Impact Investing at M&G Investments
2019 has been a pivotal year in the journey towards a more sustainable future.
The recent wave of public attention generated by the nature documentary series 'Blue Planet II', has helped to create a backlash against single-use plastics. Sustainability issues have made front-page news courtesy of environmental movement Extinction Rebellion and Swedish teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg, among others.
Yet 2019 will have seen the highest carbon emissions on record, and there remains global discord on the action needed to combat climate change.
I am far from alone in believing that solving sustainability challenges will be era-defining for the world's companies. Most, if not all, sectors need to adapt in order to continue to thrive. As we look ahead to 2020, here are three sustainability themes that investors ignore at their potential cost.
1. Moving towards a circular economy
Not only are many important resources finite, but their extraction and single-use can have costly implications for the environment. An alternative to the "take, make and dispose" economic model is moving to a more circular economy, where waste from production and consumption becomes a resource to be recycled, repaired and reused.
This transformation will take more than a change in mindset. Durable goods must be designed so they can be repaired, not replaced, and global supply chains will have to be reimagined to enable the reuse and recycling of materials. Some companies and sectors, as in the packaging industry, have already made great progress towards closed-loop processes.
Ultimately, transforming waste into a resource should not only address major sustainability concerns, but could also unlock greater value for businesses and their investors.
2. Solving environmental challenges
There is a persistent tension between fostering global economic development and reducing costs to the environment. After all, a rising population that consumes more as it grows richer heaps greater strain on the planet. For growth to be more sustainable, it is imperative to lower our carbon footprint.
There are therefore powerful opportunities where companies can successfully develop solutions to environmental challenges while enabling the modern economy. These solutions do not need to be revolutionary – it is often the incremental innovations that can have the greatest impact. Technologies that make common processes more energy-efficient, for instance, can have a significant effect.
Not only can products and services that enable us to conserve energy or water, for example, help solve the world's environmental challenges, but they have the potential to generate sustainable profits.
3. Combatting climate change
Arguably, there is no more critical challenge facing global society than climate change. The environmental risks of climate inaction may be evident, but the financial risks should not be overlooked. Where companies fail to act, they not only expose their investors to financial loss, but they will miss opportunities that lie in action to combat climate change.
Where companies can tap into trends like rising demand for green electricity, they can pursue more sustainable financial returns for their shareholders while contributing to positive change. I believe the transition to a lower-carbon economy will be more effective if incumbent companies are coaxed into playing an active part.
Despite the scale of the challenge, I am buoyed by the contribution that active asset managers like M&G can make by exerting their influence. We have long held companies to account on strategy and governance and, in the same way, we can hold their feet to the fire on climate change.
Targeting sustainable returns
There are clearly multi-billion-dollar opportunities for innovative companies that can successfully deliver products and services that help solve the world's range of sustainability challenges.
Where active investors can successfully identify these companies, your clients have the potential to not only target sustainable long-term returns, but also have a demonstrably positive impact on the environment.
The value of the fund's assets will go down as well as up. This will cause the value of your investment to fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you originally invested.

Some flexible beds come with massage features, cordless hand controls, and the capacity to change the suppleness of the cushion, all. It merely takes more initiative and supervision of little ones (and also a couple of adults I recognize) to keep a fabric couch from obtaining run down or unclean.

Cost of new kitchen countertops
Remember that you may want to invest in new bed linens as part of the bedroom remodel and also upgrade. There's no proper method to begin equipping your room.
Procedure your area carefully before making a furnishings acquiesces. A neutral area of grays, whites, as well as tans, is the best canvas for bright.
A sliding and even a fold-out door might be less complicated to make use of for anybody in a wheelchair or using a walker. Consider cushion guards also: they aid avoid smell or dampness problems with your cushion and can be washed frequently to stay fresh and did.
Little did you recognize that you may have made small decorating mistakes in the past that are making your room look much less costly than it I. Select fabrics and also carpets that can tear and also take the wear of daily living, she suggested.
Use colors, structures, and different products to include character as well as character. There are 2 methods to complete that, and which method you pick will certainly depend upon the existing dimension of the living room you already have.

Only to figure out that the item you were in love within the store isn't nearly as comfortable in your home.
Granite cabinet tops
You can either position the chairs in a square or round sets. Sure, you may invest the majority of your time in the living room watching TV yet creating your room format to assist in the discussion is necessary.
Is it an area for relaxing? Functioning? How you spend your time in your living space will certainly dictate which pieces of furniture are most proper.

The perfect choice is to establish up whatever the methods you need it before you require it by doing. When preparing your living area, it's vital to consider the traffic circulation.

Do you remember the direct sales force organisations?
They taught a lot of essential skills about being a financial adviser, which the regulator doesn't seem to appreciate, recognise or even fully understand today.
These forgotten arts include prospecting, referral generation and rapport building, amongst plenty of others. Teaching younger people to pass exams is the easy part, teaching them to handle the mysterious internal stomach churning of sales call reluctance and how to gain trust? Well that's a whole different ball game.
What's all this direct sales force nostalgia got to do with the current network situation?
Well, my point is that its often not the firm that isn't viable it's the business model. The world changes, organisations don't and some firms dissolve, this is the law of competition, this is why WH Smith isn't Amazon, why the Yellow pages isn't Google and why some Networks will be obsolete.
When a model is not viable, it's highly like not to be viable across the whole sector.
The Pru did not retain its direct sales channel. Back then it was logical (but not obvious) that neither would the Pearl or the Brittanic or the others.
Memories flood back of a candidate calling in from the hotel room of his Life Office induction-training course. We had placed him there that week and he had seen the news of the demise of his career and his new sales force on national TV. PLC greed at the expense of individuals.
The network model is dead. If one network fails others will be sure to follow. When PI costs spike for one, they will spike for most. A few players will remain strong, but why take a chance with your business and you livelihood?
Check your contract, check who owns your trail, if your not completely clear on it then you should consider your options and it may be a wise move to extricate yourself now.
What are the options? Here are a few pointers in the right direction for you.
Go Direct
Simplybiz and Threesixty have some great support mechanisms for achieving this.
Join a Safe Network
Paradigm offers complete transparency because the commissions come into your bank account first. You then pay them for services from your account. Some others may well offer this.
Join a Growing Regional
Larger regional players would love you as part of the team, plenty are in growth mode bolting on acquisitions. Your clients will need ring fencing and clear expectations agreed on both sides before joining forces but it could be fun.
Now is the time to be cautious about your revenue and your livelihood, get in touch if you need further pointers.
Wishing you continued success,
Stephen Hagues
