Alfred Goodman Gilman (July 1, 1941 – December 23, 2015) was an American pharmacologist and biochemist. He shared the 1994 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Martin Rodbell for their discoveries regarding G-proteins.
G-proteins are a vital intermediary between the extracellular activation of receptors (GPCR) on the cell membrane and actions within the cell. Rodbell had shown in the 1960s that GTP was involved in cell signaling. It was Gilman who actually discovered the proteins that interacted with the GTP to initiate signalling cascades within the cell.
Early life
Gilman was born in New Haven, Connecticut. His parents were Mabel (Schmidt) and Alfred Gilman, a professor at the Yale School of Medicine and one of the authors of the classic pharmacology textbook The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics; he chose his son's middle name in honor of his co-author Louis S. Goodman.[1] Gilman served as one of the textbook's editors from 1980 to 2000, first collaborating with, then succeeding his father and Goodman.[2]
Gilman graduated from Yale with his B.S. in 1962. He then entered a combined MD-PhD program at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio where he wanted to study under Nobel laureate pharmacologist Earl Sutherland. Sutherland was departing for Vanderbilt University, so Gilman studied with Sutherland's collaborator, Theodore Rall. Gilman graduated from Case Western in 1969, then did his post-doctoral studies at the National Institutes of Health with Nobel laureate Marshall Nirenberg from 1969-71.
In 1971, Gilman became a professor of pharmacology at the University of Virginia, School of Medicine, in Charlottesville, Virginia. In 1981, he became chairman of the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. He was elected as a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 1986.
He received the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research as well as the Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize from Columbia University in 1989 together with Edwin Krebs. In 2005, he was elected as Dean of University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, Dallas. He served on the board of advisors of Scientists and Engineers for America, an organization focused on promoting sound science in American government.
Gilman died after a long battle with pancreatic cancer in Dallas, Texas on December 23, 2015 at the age of 74.[3]

Almost every kid has a personal tutor mentoring them in their school job and preparing them for tests. A lot more moms and dads are involving personal tutors for their youngsters, either because they do not have time to trainer their children or they do not understand the present instructional curriculum. Therefore many involve undergraduates, graduates or full time tutors to go their homes for exclusive mentoring.
Today, parents are placing more stress on their kids as they comprehend the competitiveness of culture. If their kids hang back in their studies, they are bound to be removed from society because truth is terrible. Although every child is provided level playing field in institutions, yet they still need to do incredibly well to stick out from the group. Parents are no longer pleased with marks in the band 2 variety; they desire their children to score a high Band 1, to be top 3 in class, and so on. They desire their kids to discover faster than the college educational program so that their children can score in college analyses as their exclusive tutors have actually already shown them. Consequently this explains the increase in home tuition services, parents are not requiring their youngsters to do well but additionally requiring the tutors to make certain their kids do well. Exclusive tutors now should have good scholastic documents and also experience, in order to be chosen for jobs.
Nowadays, demands for residence tuition way exceed the supply of personal tutors, this result in greater tuition prices. The average market rate has to do with 20 per hr for key degree. Personal tutors, specifically the undergrads are additionally requiring such rate, tuition tasks with rates below 20 will most likely be lowly looked upon by the undergrads. Nonetheless, residence tuition is only available to those that agree to pay, generally the center and higher earnings families. These parents are much more very informed, therefore they put even more focus on their children academic success. Not only concentrating on their academic round, parents additionally register other academic training courses such as speech and drama for their kids. They want to give their kids an extra all natural growth. Understanding starts from young, thus for several kids, residence tuition is given to them when they are in their reduced primary degree. There is a demand to strengthen the kid's foundation on topics such as English and also Math from young since as their instructional level boost, the issue sums will obtain harder. Therefore it is very important to have strong structure.
Home tuition is more preferred than tuition centers since home tuition is generally engaged within the facilities of the kids and it is more of a 1-1 basis, unlike Tuition Centre in Ang Mo Kio, where students are placed in team tuition. Every youngster has different understanding abilities, if positioned in team tuition, the child might not be provided full interest by the tutor and also may either quicken or decrease the tuition price. This will certainly not aid the child in his/her scholastic pursue. Additionally, some children are too timid to speak up in team tuition and may be overshadowed by other outspoken children. Thus taking part in house tuition will certainly be a much wiser option for the majority of parents.

CREATIVEMANIA: Can your brand withstand a smackdown?
Author: Scotty Swemba
You've been given the task of creating a powerful, engaging message for a brand. The boss is ready for you—wanting to hear what ideas you've got. You weren't given much time, but you've been practicing your lines all morning. They have to be short and sweet. Something catchy. Memorable, immutable. You think you've got it … but is it a message that will persuade millions of people to spend millions of dollars on your idea? Or is it crap … just another catchphrase no one will repeat for a character no one will remember? If it's good, will it get transformed into a design? Show up on a shirt? In a magazine? The side of a tractor trailer? How will it play out in a full hype video package? Will it connect with the audience? The spotlight is on. It's your turn. You point your finger right at the camera and say … "And that's the bottom line, 'cuz Stone Cold said so!" Surprised? If you thought this narrative was happening inside the mind of a creative—from the perspective of a designer, writer or ACD at any advertising agency—you would've been right. Agency creatives commonly talk ideas, brainstorm concepts, deliver high-pressure pitches for a brand's identity. And they frequently do it in a lightning-fast amount of time. This scenario, however, was actually part of Stone Cold Steve Austin's groundbreaking promo from King of the Ring '96. It blew up, and almost instantaneously, he became the biggest draw in the history of "the business." All from a few words. In the weeks that followed, the WWE (then known as WWF) would produce T-shirts with "Austin 3:16" printed on them—the tagline from that same 1996 promo. They would sell more than eight figures worth of those shirts. Eight figures. From those simple words. Stone Cold Steve Austin is a brand. His audience is the consumer. Coming up with powerful, engaging creative for a retail or business brand is not much different than a wrestler trying to get their brand "over" with an audience. We all know wrestlers need to put on a performance (an intense athletic one at that). But they also have to create a character. They have to come up with a tagline. They need to be able to deliver that line convincingly in front of both a TV camera and an arena full of judgmental fans. They have to work with designers to get their brand into logo form. Print that logo on shirts. And hats. And other merch. They have to work with a composer to come up with a piece of signature music for their entrance. It takes a complete production team to help them come up with a video package to get fans hyped for that brand so the fans in turn want to buy those products. And buy those tickets. Again and again. But for every Stone Cold Steve Austin, there's a wrestler whose brand floundered (or failed). Didn't have the right look. Their taglines were cringey. They couldn't connect their brand with the audience. Case in point, a good example of a bad gimmick is Rocky Maivia. Rocky was a legacy brand. A third-generation blue chipper baby face. Very generic. The fans never accepted him. They would chant "Rocky sucks" over and over again. Eventually they just didn't care—which was even worse. Rocky needed to rebrand. So he turned "heel" (aka, the "bad guy") in the wrestling world. He changed his attitude. Changed his look. Changed his music, his video package. He started saying things like "Do you smell what the Rock is cooking?" He invented the word "Smackdown." And eventually, he became known as Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Complete rebrand at its best. Now the man is a legend. If something isn't working for your brand, maybe it's time to turn "heel" and try a refresh. And that's the bottom line, 'cuz Stone Cold said so!

I'd Like to Thank the Academy …
Most creatives exist in a paradoxical place of passion and feigned indifference. We work to commit the kind of brilliant, blinding energy every project or concept deserves, side-by-side with trying to keep the heart distant enough to protect it from being quashed if our copy or design gets altered. Or meh'd. Or (ugh) rejected entirely. It's a realistic part of the agency process (insert "thick skin" idiom of choice). One that ultimately helps fan the flames of creativity from the hope that someday one of our glorious ideas will get the green light, carte blanche. Enter GECU—General Electric Credit Union. A brand-new client who, after decades in business and a jaw-dropping history of success, felt it was time to up their game on brand recognition—a need they pegged us to take the lead on. They wanted it all, across the board. Immediate sales spots for radio and digital (and a brand-new buy to better leverage both). Plus other offer-based versions to follow. But at the forefront, paramount to all others: a soup-to-nuts, full-scale brand awareness campaign that would not only boost prominence with their target audience, but would set them dramatically apart from competitor banks and credit unions. Online, outdoors, on the airwaves and the tube. It was big. Huge. A colossal undertaking that had the marks early on of being a genuine game-changer for them—and to a certain extent, us. Put simply, it was the kind of high-level, big-picture, push-the-limits chance that professional creatives dream about. The starring role, if you will, in building something from scratch with every ounce of talent and vision in our toolbox. Remember that early radio deliverable? A project we pressured ourselves to knock out of the park with new scripts, new talent, new music—finding and establishing a complete GECU voice before we had fully sunk our teeth into how to amplify it. In one of the spots, we came up with a compact couplet we thought described them (their difference) to a T: Member owned, so we can't be bought. Member run, so our best interest is yours. Powerful, punchy and to the point. GECU loved this line. We loved this line. So much so that it landed a leading role in one of our "big idea" concepts for the comprehensive brand boost. One that also involved 3D props, on-location filming, and most challenging of all, actual GECU members. Not actors. "People just like you." It was the most ambitious. Definitely the most complicated. And the client went for it. Wait, what? Oh yes. Not only did GECU choose our A-list idea-star, they chose the concept that would force us to stoke our creative embers to full, bonfire-level intensity (and trusted from the get-go that we had the chops to deliver it). It was the concept that also placed the bulk of the first stage of work directly on their own shoulders—finding real credit union members who'd agree to be on-screen and larger than life. The soul of the campaign hinged on being able to recognize and relate to each of these people. Someone you know. And trust. And can relate to. Our challenge was to draw out these everyman connections from the members GECU chose—and then hope that sincerity and "realness" translated on-camera. It did. Of course, there were delays. And second-guesses. Our window of time—with our production company, our photographer, our own creative deadlines, even our media buy—was closing swiftly, and there were bumps and roadblocks none of us could have seen coming. Wouldn't it be easier to hire talent to play the part of members? It was a thought we briefly entertained as the clock ticked down. It was also a sticking point our ACD refused to budge on, an uncompromising stand we felt was integral to the campaign (remember, soul and all?). But then in the space of a week, it all came together. We found the final participant, secured the last two locations—setting in motion a full-scale shoot that was then only four days away. We scheduled everyone and everything down to the minute: three days, five scenes, five different parts of the city, with close to 20 of us on set at each location—plus editing, voiceover and design work to follow. The stars themselves—real GECU members with everyday lives and jobs and commitments—blew us away with their eagerness and excitement to be part of this. Then blew us away again as their natural personalities absolutely shined on film. From this, we built four unique TV spots, currently running on all major cable and local networks. One radio spot doing the same across the area. Three billboards in nearly 100 locations. Dozens of digital ads and sponsored social posts. Not bad, right? Suffice it to say, the client was blown away. Together, as a team, we created something bigger—better—than we ever imagined. More to the point, we reveled in the fact that we had the chance to do it. Dare we call it our magnum opus? Nah, surely not. (Well, maybe.) Thanks, GECU. We'd say more, but the orchestra has already started playing …

How To After DIVORCE!Dating when divorced: It's different when you've got kids. It's not just that you so do not have the same body you did back when you were Or that the guys you're dating aren't 23 anymore either. Thank God for that! It's the kids -- your kids. You just can't fling yourself around the dating world like some Carrie Bradshaw, no curfew, no babysitters to pay, no responsibilities.
They need to get comfortable with the fact that she's not going to bring someone into their lives who will do them harm or ship them off to a boarding school in Brazil. They also need to appreciate that the inclusion of a new male figure in their lifestyle doesn't diminish the importance of their real dad. Early dates with your new love should be breakfasts or lunches when the kids are in school, or evening dates where the children have already been taken to a friend's house or the babysitter's before you arrive.
Divorce is a very traumatizing experience especially when it happens after one has already had kids and is well settled. Indeed, in The Divorce Experience: A. The following dating tips for divorced moms can help you navigate the waters as you begin dating with children after divorce. Meagan opens up about dating as a divorced mom after being partnered up for the better part of two decades, and Sarah has many questions.
If you haven't spent that much time around children and young adults, you've got a lot of homework ahead of you. Not only is it important for you to understand their various developmental stages in order to know what makes them tick but also to figure out what kinds of things really interest them insofar as hobbies, books, movies, pets, games, sports and foods.
Mom divorced and dating
Their mother can obviously fill in many of these blanks for you but it wouldn't hurt to find a parent or teacher who is familiar with this age group and can give you advice and suggestions.
When you finally meet your sweetheart's offspring, engage them at whatever level they seem to feel most comfortable. Ask them about school and what they're learning, what they're reading or what they thought of a particular TV show or kid-centric movie without coming across as trying too hard. Kids can sense when someone is being pushy to make a good impression and this often has the opposite effect.
Create opportunities to make something together, play games and demonstrate that you're a good listener who respects whatever they have to say.
Neither preach to them nor bore them to death with "when I was your age" stories. Kids of any age live in the moment. Make those moments memorable.
Dating when divorced: It's different when you've got kids. It's not just that you so do not have the same body you did back when you we. Depending on the age and maturity of the child, the upheaval created by Mom and Dad no longer living under the same roof doesn't need to be complicated by . As a divorced mom with three kids, I never thought online dating would be a part of my life. Sometimes when I sit in the parking lot waiting for my kids to pile in.
Rushing into a parental role too quickly can have detrimental effects on a child's self-esteem and sense of security, especially if your relationship with the mother doesn't last. Trust takes time to build and children are no exception to this rule.
Long before they start to envision you as a permanent fixture, they need to observe your actions and see how you relate to them as individuals and not just attachments to their mother.
Whatever feelings you may harbor toward the father, it's crucial that you embrace neutrality in any discussions about him with the children. This objectivity will demonstrate that his actions and character are not as important to you as the feelings you have toward them and their mother.Video: Exploring dating as a single mom
It's likewise critical that you practice the art of sharing and accept that you're not always going to be invited to join them in outings and family activities. By being a positive role model, a responsible helpmate and a fun companion, you're fostering a friendship that is separate and distinct from your love for their mom.
Whether or not you agree with your sweetheart's parenting skills, the time to correct or contest her actions is not in front of the children.

LAST year, for the FIRST TIME EVER, the Pentigon was required to be AUDITED.. it failed, but much was determined to be because of the SAME money being counted 3x and 4x.. NOT GOOD ! AT LEAST, thanks to trump... they are TRYING to get their spending and accounting under control... of course, we will need to RE-ELECT Trump to see I thru... Why? Because Democrat LIKE loose accounting rules, or NO RULES... it's easier do run their CORRUPT SCHEMES !! https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/pentagon-racks-up-dollar35-trillion-in-accounting-changes-in-a-year/ar-BBZcVdy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Re: To simple pass, or not TOO simple pass, that is the ques

In this demo, Rob and Lee compair a Kemper to an actual amp head. They had Rebea and Danish Pete switch between a victory silverback, Fender bassbreaker, and their kemper profile equivilent. He could not tell the difference. He was so impressed that, he and Rebea each baught one for them to use live. He decided to leave his amps home and just profile them into a kempermore
St. Vincent says in this [*Guitar World* interview](http://www.guitarworld.com/enigmatic-st-vincent-talks-technique-gear-choices-and-dimebag-darrell) "I'm using a Kemper modeling amplifier for live work. Originally I was bringing out vintage '66 Kalamazoo kind of small amps—the kind of little guy that you could ram a lot of signal through and get a nice breakup and saturation and all of that. But I just stopped."more
Mark Hoppus posted couple times using Kemper for live show, in his Instagram or Facebook, and Twitter.more
Talking through some of the elements of Martin Gore's live gear setup for Depeche Mode's 2013 Delta Machine Tour, Jez Webb mentions Martin Gore's use of the Kemper Profiling Amplifier (3:17 into the video): "The new addition to the setup is the Kemper Profiling Amplifier. This is the first tour we've used that. Within a couple of days [of receiving it] we dialed in roughly six - eight songs. We found it very easy to use, the interface, the layout of it, particularly the way it's split into three sections: your effects, the amp, and delays & reverbs, etc. So as I say we were pretty much out the box, plug it in, we were up and running and using that. From this, we take a stereo feed into the [Rivera amps, the Venus 5](https://equipboard.com/items/rivera-venus-5-head)…"more

Rivers on the Kemper Profiler: "I just profiled the setup I was using before. It was the Diezel VH4 - I did all my main crunchy rhythm sounds, plus my crazy sustain lead. I got everything I need and then over time I started adding things into my lead channel, like an octave lower or a crazy chorus or a little flange. I built all these different sounds, it was really a lot of fun. And all I use beyond that is my Boss tuner!"more
Here Mateus is seen using a Kemper Profiler for his tones.more
Alex Gaskarth says in [this Facebook post](https://www.facebook.com/kemperamps/posts/1058187784197544) "There's nothing like Kemper. We've used other profilers and amp simulators in the past and they just never compare to the real thing. Kemper gets the job done, and it makes touring the world with every amp sound we know and love so simple and straightforward, without sacrificing tone, quality and organic sound."more
Recently announced as another kemper artist/ endorser.more
"Profiling means you setup your amps and you can make what is essentially a tone print of your amp/mic chain to take with you. For the sake of weight, I wanted to try it. "I've been using the Rectos for so long for a specific sound, but I wanted to see if we could do it with less weight. There's a 23kg weight restriction when you fly and we have to keep our costs down. So I tried the Kemper and it's worked out killer. "This rack-mounted one has a 400-watt Class D power amplifier under it. So I have a Mesa cab onstage to get some sort of air movement, which I do like. I miss having amps onstage. The whole completely direct thing kind of sucked for me. So having the cab onstage has been great," says Devin Townsend, on [Music Radar](http://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/rig-tour-devin-townsend-project-621935/20).more
Alex and Jack are shown here in front of their Kemper Profiler Rack Guitar Amp System. Jack says in [this Facebook post](https://www.facebook.com/kemperamps/posts/1058187784197544) "Kempers have changed touring for me. In the past I believed that no matter what, digital heads would always sound a little "robotic". But now I have been proven wrong. My Kemper has given me any amp I could imagine. As crisp and accurate as the real thing."more

Kevin uses a Kemper Profiler on tour. Much like the rest of ADTR, he switched to a Kemper as a way to cut down on shipping costs. It would cost an insane amount more to ship a regular amp and cab around the world for tours. With the help of Bill Stevenson of Descendents, Kevin amp matched all of his personal amps. The Presets he uses are matched to his Marshall JCM 800, EVH 5150 III, and Toneville Broadway amps. The Kemper helps get a consistent tone each night regardless of venue size or conditionsmore

Andy James started using his Kemper before his new album, "Exodus", and used his Kemper in the Album. According to Andy, the Kemper sounds amazing, as he said on :"Kemper is the way forward for me and it sounds killer #fuckrealampsinrealtime". You can clearly see that he thinks Kemper is a very good product and enjoys it. He also has a profile pack, the "Andy James signature bundle" on STL tones's website. https://www.stltones.com/collections/andy-james/products/andy-james-signature-bundlemore

Neil uses Kemper Profilers while on tour. He switched to kemper as a way to cut down on shipping costs. It would have cost alot more to ship a regular amp head and cab around the world for tours. He set up his presets while recording the album Bad Vibrations. Bill Stevenson of Decendents helped get the presets while producing the album. The presets are bassed off Neil's Bogner Extacy, EVH 5150 III, and Marshall JCM 800 amps. They tone matched the amps and the kemper until they sounded as identical as possiblemore

He uses this preset rather than tone matching his personal amp collectionmore
Here we can see Geoff jumping in front of what is most likely a Kemper profiler, given its aesthetic and setupmore
I don't know how much it has changed, really. I mean, in 2002 we went with SansAmp, and on the last tour we did I think I had five Marshall amps hot rodded with the eight Marshall cabs. But this time we're going to go with Kemper. It's like an Axe FX kind of rack. I actually get to simulate the guitar sound I have in the studio. I don't know how it's going to work, but they say it's very simple. I just got it at home today, so I'm going to sit and program it and do everything with it. Hopefully, that's going to be enough. No speakers, only the pre-amps.more

¨Not long ago, I used to run four amps at the same time and we were starting to play live on TV - for example, we recently did ´Later... With Jools Holland.´ If you send four mics from four different amps that are always changing to someone in a BBC truck, they´ll think, ´F*** you - it all sounds the same!´ This makes my signal a lot easier for everyone. My main clean sound is a 1957 Fender Champ, my main fuzz profile is a 1962 Vox AC30. There are about 100 Marshalls in there, too. We even profiled The Big Cheese pedal by Audio Kitchen, which works as an amp you can run through a cab and ended up being used for 90 per cent of our albums... some things are too fragile to take on tour!

The Kemper Profiling Amp is the only piece of equipment any studio needs. It accurately captures the tone of any amp/ cab any guitarist can want. I have had many a guitarist come to my home studio and swear by the tone of their amp just to be blown away by the Kemper (its the tone you end up hearing on the record). Don't spend good money on one amp when you can have any amp you want with the Kemper.
I am your typical tubes or nothing man, I love my fender. So I borrowed a rack model off a friend already convinced this would never stand against my tube power!!! One hour later I'm sold, I hate that they are so good, but they really are, for theatre shows or pit shows this makes total sense. you can have all your best amps and amps you could never hope to own in real life, right in one small package. They are being updated all the time so they are always on the top of there game. Are they worth the money? Yes. Are they for everyone? maybe not. Do they replace a great amp ripping your face of with tone?....... thats not for me to say.
The Kemper PA has been my go to rig for both live and studio applications for two years now. It has been all over the US and even overseas. It is durable and provides the best tones available in any device. Solid state or tube. Nothing beats the KPA. They have top notch support staff as well. The 5 star rating only goes to Kemper. It is the benchmark for excellence.
By purchasing the Kemper... I now have 1,000s and 1,000s of amazing guitar amps in one box. I could never afford those.
I have the powered version and is actually the black lunchbox.
For studio-work I use the unpowered "toaster"-version since 5 years (but not solely!). For live performances the rackmount version was an obvious choice. Regarding the sound of the Kemper and the accuracy of profiling an original tube-amp I have to admit that this thing is not the absolute 100%-solution in every case despite all the praise you are reading elsewhere. Still this thing is a good alternative to using a tubeamp on stage especially when you have no crew to carry your stuff around.
It's well build and the handling of the controls are almost perfect and especially the powered version makes a lot sense on stage since you can route your signal to a cabinet and the DI-box at the same time plus feeding your inear-monitoring. To integrate and control other hardware the Kemper is not as versatile as a Helix. Also the effects-section feels limited in comparison to an AxeFX. But the focus of the Kemper is basically the amping itself and based on the use of it as an amp onstage, this is pure gold.
Lots and Lots of stuff for use @ home, studio and live!! All in 1 system!! Love it
Si quieres grabar guitarras de calidad y te gusta la versatilidad, este es tu aparato. Genial para cualquier estilo. Y es un producto que se va actualizando.
See inside and out of this Kemper amp. I have owned one for years and originally had the unpowered version. Later I carried out a conversion to make the Kemper powered and I still have the unit today. See what the amp is made of and how it stacks up.
Rackmountable Guitar Amp System for Playing and Creating Custom Profiles of Real Amplifiers
The Kemper can also play bass! I used it to replace all the sounds I needed previously with the Boss GT10B. The important thing is that all sounds sound better and I still can't say that I have understood all the functions or that I have already perfectly adjusted the amp. But I'm working on it!

R. Kelly attorney Steven Greenberg argued:
Mr. Kelly never missed a single court date, from 2002 to 2008, on his previous case. The court did not consider that Mr. Kelly appeared for each and every day of his trial and was present when the jury's verdict was read. The court never considered that Mr. Kelly has been aware of these federal investigations and yet did not abscond.
Meanwhile, Azriel Clary, one of R. Kelly's alleged victims has been letting the world know that R. Kelly is a true CREEP.
Azriel alleges that the star "blackmails everyone. He makes everyone do very degrading stuff, whether, on film or writing it down, he makes them sign it."
This is no surprise to anyone who has watched "Surviving R. Kelly" it's just refreshing that finally Azriel is admitting the truth.
Clary said:
He even has people on film molesting their younger nieces or younger brothers [and that Kelly] has girlfriends in every city. He has flings in every city.
Of course, Greenberg responded while at the same time debunking Clary's claims.
He tried to discredit her saying:
We are surprised to learn that Ms. Clary is making these allegations. What she now says is directly contrary to truth, and the facts that have been brought forward by Ms. Clary in the past. It is also directly contrary to what we expect to be proof. As with other' accusers,' the lack of proof and their past actions impeach them.
Greenberg added:
In sum, Ms. Clary had a long-term, consensual relationship with Mr. Kelly. It continued after he was arrested when she was free to do as she wished. It is clear that she now seeks to personally capitalize on their relationship, and the only way to do so is to parrot the false narrative. The allegations are not true. Still, Mr. Kelly bears only goodwill towards Ms. Clary.

Hospital Dress Codes - 22/01/05 4:44 PM
There may be a need to consider colour-coding of scrub suits (or "theatre clothing"). Operating theatre staff are supposedly not allowed to leave the OR suite in scrubs (and, of course, no-one is allowed to enter the suite without first changing into scrubs). However, other scrub-suit wearers (eg, A&E staff) are often to be seen roaming around the hospital (taking lunch in the canteen, and even outside the hospital, getting off the bus, crossing the road - I've seen it all with my own eyes). There is a danger that such a person could wander right into the OR without being challenged. Could there be a case, then, for OR staff proper and visitors to the OR suite to have a scrub suit of different colour to the others, so that interlopers may be readily identified and scrub discipline maintained?

An emergency situation has developed in the Romanian shelter for rescued dogs from the OVIDIU KILL SHELTER.
These dogs were saved from death row in 2017 and a new shelter was constructed in haste. Sadly after a while these dogs were abandoned and thanks to a committed lady Raluca Butan, the situation was saved.
Sadly in 2019, all workers left one by one due to unforeseen individual circumstances. Since then the shelter was robbed of virtually everything, dog bowls and beds etc.
OCTOBER 2019 - We are trying to help get about 30 remaining dogs out of this shelter to a safe haven in a new shelter, currently under construction. Eventually all these dogs need to find new homes and we are hoping to find some of these forever homes in the Netherlands. First of all we need fosterhomes where the dogs can rest and recuperate. We will work with the dogs to get them used to all skills necessary like walking on a leash etc. Then we will get the dogs ready to be adopted and you are all welcome to visit and hopefully meet your new family member.
We will help you to continue to socialise the dogs with the assistance of a certified animal behaviour therapist.
If you are interested in fostering, adopting or if you have a place where we can home and work with these dogs for the first few months, let us know.
send your message to us:
We have also set up a Facebook page for the updates and stories of the dogs, Please like the page and visit us for updates
If you would like to donate towards helping these dogs please go to our donations page

Time to bring sexism to heel
published : 18 Mar 2019 at 03:30
newspaper section: Asia focus
I've never been a big fan of high heels. While they may be an easy way to add extra height, make my legs appear longer and my calves slimmer, I find them painful and uncomfortable. I tend to wear them only when it's absolutely necessary, such as at important functions or events.
That being said, I associate professional attire with the value I see in myself, my job and the organisation I represent, so I always want to look presentable, with or without high heels.
At one point in my life, I worked for a leading Southeast Asian bank as a relationship manager. The role required me to interact with clients, so I always tried my best to look decent and appropriate. It wasn't always easy -- some mornings I felt sluggish and would have preferred to dress down a little.
I genuinely respect those who can spend hours every day perfecting their makeup and pairing just the right outfit with matching shoes and handbag. I don't fall in that category but I still try to look my best.
One day when I was leaving the office, I ran into the deputy department head and he made a comment that made me feel belittled. I was wearing a pair of unbranded brown flats. "Your shoes are hideous, they look like something you'd wear to a fresh market. Look at her shoes," he said, pointing to my colleague. She was wearing beautiful, black shiny stiletto heels. "You should learn to wear something like that."
I grew ashamed of that particular pair of shoes and never again wore them to the office. I started wearing high heels, putting up with bruised and blistered feet and an aching back. I had to ask myself why I had to tolerate this pain when the shoes had very little to do with my productivity or efficiency.
Those memories came back to me when I heard about the #KuToo movement in Japan. It began in January with a tweet by an actress who said she didn't believe employers should force women to wear high heels to work.
A clever combination of the Japanese word shoes (kutsu) and pain (kutsuu), #KuToo has had a snowball effect akin to the #MeToo movement -- the global platform to promote gender equality and repudiate sexual harassment.
Concerns about inequality between men and women have risen amid the backdrop of socio-economic development over the past century. The roles and responsibilities of women have shifted tremendously. We have risen to become more prominent in a business world once dominated by men.
Women have proved to be equally, if not more, capable of doing the same tasks as men. They are able to accomplish great things through their intellect and skills.
The latest research from Grant Thornton International reveals increasing numbers of women in senior management positions, both globally and across the region. Southeast Asia in particular has outperformed the global average in several indicators, with 94% of companies now reporting at least one woman in a senior management role, compared with 87% worldwide.
I am confident that high heels had very little or nothing to do with these achievements. Women should be able to have the freedom to wear the shoes that are appropriate and comfortable for them.
This sexism and double standard in dress codes practices occurs not only in Japan.
Last year in London, for instance, a woman was sent home for wearing flats to work as the company mandated her to wear heels between 2 and 5 inches. In other cases, company policies have gone as far as demanding that women dye their hair blonde, wear revealing outfits and constantly reapply makeup.
The Swiss bank UBS once dedicated 40 pages to telling staff how to dress "appropriately". One requirement was for women to wear "flesh coloured" underwear.
While companies have the right to suggest dress codes appropriate to the job and workplace, most seem to disproportionately affect women.
Employers should be able to draw the line between dress codes that ensure formality, and those are impractical and discriminatory. Forcing women to dress in certain ways, especially when it is against their will, is a form of harassment, which can lead to other gender discrimination.
I think it's time for society to move forward and grant women the freedom to wear whatever shoes or clothing they prefer as long as it remains professional and appropriate.
