Non-profit organisation that focuses on sexual and reproductive health, Pathfinder International, has developed and rolled out an mHealth app to improve post-abortion care in sub-Saharan Africa.
Around 6.9 million women are treated for complications from unsafe abortions each year in developing countries, a majority of which are in countries that have severe abortion laws that hinder the procedure being done in a safe and clean environment. For example, abortion is criminalised in Tanzania unless it's required to save the woman's life.
To combat the high rates of unsafe abortions, Pathfinder developed an app especially for sub-Saharan Africa that includes a series of checklists that outline the step-by-step process for the clinical procedure and provider-client interaction to help doctors with post-abortion care.
"We are committed to improving the quality of care for women seeking contraception and post-abortion care, and we saw gaps in provider skill and comfort level in some of the facilities we work that could increase quality of care," said Technical Advisor for Digital Health at Pathfinder, Justin Maly, in an interview with IT Web Africa.
"We wanted to provide an easy to use tool that would help mentorship teams observe quality of service provision, as well as identify areas for improvement for facility providers to ensure steady improvement in service delivery in supported health facilities," continued Maly.
The app was initially launched in Tanzania in March 2016 and later expanded to Mozambique as part of a partnership between Pathfinder and the local governments. The partnership aims to provide mentorship to health facility staff on post-abortion care; family planning counselling; the provision of contraceptive methods, data and stock management.
In Tanzania there are currently 64 mentors using the app in 49 facilities. "Mentorship teams in Tanzania make quarterly visits to supported health facilities to provide on-going mentorship support to providers of contraception and comprehensive post-abortion car. Mentorship teams observe trained providers as they provide these services," said Maly.
"This is the first time in Tanzania that post-abortion care providers are being mentored using digital tools, and women are receiving better care as a result. We are already seeing increased ability of mentorship teams to observe service provision, provide on the job training in areas needing improvement, and review data related to quality of service provision," concluded Maly.

Pole in Style of the month: Meet Magdalena from Poland
Posted by Mai Phan on
Meet Magdalena, a pole dancer from Poland who is currently living in Norway.
1. Tell us a bit about yourself
I'm a 26 year-old girl from Poland. I moved to Norway almost five years ago after graduating from university. Before that I visited Norway twice and felt in love with the country. I'm currently working at a hotel in Sandnes, and I like what I'm doing.
2. How did you get into pole dance?
I graduated from Physical Education School, so sports have always been a part of my life. When I moved to Norway I wanted to do something for my body and mind and find new friends. I never thought that I will be pole dancing. I played lacrosse before and it is a pretty rough sport. One day, I saw an announcement on Facebook group about new pole dance classes in Stavanger. So I signed up!
3. You are competing for the Norwegian Pole Sport Championship. Is this your first competition?
It will be my second competition. I competed in Rising Stars (October 2017, Lillestrøm). That was such a great experience and entrance to the Championships!
4. What made you decide to compete?
I wanted to go out of my comfort zone. I never thought that I will be able to perform in front of many people. I wanted to try myself and see how far I had come with my training. And I wanted to feel that adrenaline one more time!
5. How are you preparing for your competition?
I'm training two -three times a week on pole at the studio. Between that I'm trying to do some stretching at home. I have pole at home so I train at home whenever I have time. Also mental preparation is important for me. I'm trying to think about Championships as fun and great experience.
6. What has been the biggest challenge in competition preparation process?
The biggest challenge is to put together a routine. I can be very picky and quicky unsatisfied with small things until the very end. There is always something new what I want to change. It happens mostly when I'm in bed. Then I get frustrated because I cannot go to the studio right away.
7. Who are your pole idols?
I have many of them! All pole dancers have different styles and I love it. I like Yvonne Smink for her dance moves both on the pole and floor, Marion Crampe for elegance and artism, Greshilov Evgeny for his flips and strength! As for Norwegian pole dancers my favorite is Tina Jahr Hagberg - she is a machine, so strong! Jorge Lera – great artist, Hui Yin Low – spinning pole master: D. Also my first Norwegian idol was Gøril Synnøve - I learned a lot from her Instagram in the beginning. Now we are friends.
8. Your favorite and nemesis tricks
I think my favorite tricks are ayesha and capezio. My nemesis move right now is janeiro. I have been trying this one for a long time, and I still falling down or can't hold it for two seconds.

Being organised is something we always strive to be good at, but daily life events take over and we often find our day-to-day is rather chaotic and unmethodical.
But now is as good a time as ever to change all that.
It really takes some skill to be organised – and more so, to stick at it. First thing, invest in a diary or planner; one that will really help you to become more efficient every day, and ultimately, be more organised. And, it goes without saying, a diary that oozes style – from its front cover to page design – is the chic companion that will never leave your side.
'No matter what your goals are for 2018, whether it's starting that business, running a 10k or finally decorating the spare room, good planning is often the key to it actually happening (or not, as is often the case),' says Kirsten M Wilson, interior designer and creator of the Hello Day Planner. 'We all know that following through is much easier said than done, and the reality of everyday life means it's hard enough to think about tomorrow, let alone the month or year ahead. That's why good planning is so important.'
When it comes to writing to-do lists, it's a good idea to split them into daily and weekly tasks. This will help you to set realistic goals and prioritise what tasks need to be completed urgently. For example, is it more important that you buy a new TV, change the curtains in the living room, fix the broken shelf in the bathroom or find a good builder for your home renovation?
To help you plan efficiently so that you can actually tick off your to-do lists, Kirsten reveals her foolproof tips below:
When it comes to planning daily tasks….
1. Take time each morning or the night before to plan your day. Write down your schedule and set your daily to-dos. Don't forget to include what's important to you – exercise, family time etc.
2. Be realistic with what you can achieve in a day. Don't over pack your day with to-dos, or you'll end up feeling down on yourself for not getting things done.
3. Prioritise your top to-dos. Set yourself your three top priorities and focus on getting them done each day. Other tasks you don't manage to do can be carried over to the next day, but ticking off those key tasks is key.
When it comes to planning monthly tasks...
1. Set yourself goals and then write them down. Writing them down helps you to actually commit – you'll feel great when you get them done and tick them off at the end of the month.
2. Break them down into achievable chunks for each week. Starting is often the hardest part, but you've now got a manageable weekly objective to work towards day by day.
3. Focus on the task at hand. The end goal can sometimes seem distant and daunting but good planning helps us end each day with a sense of accomplishment.
So now, go ahead and embrace your most organised self yet!

Delicious and quick
Banoffee Pie is one of the simplest and best puddings ever, this version is wickedly quick and easy. A delicious Banoffee made in seconds and made with lovely Flaxjacks to make it even more special. It's just an assembly job made with good ingredients you don't need to cook – the most technical bit of cooking is whipping the cream!
For dinner parties, special occasions or tea time
Elegant enough for a dinner party, ideal for a special pud at short notice, a fun tea time treat for kids – they can make it themselves – or a perfect dessert for dining à deux when you don't want to make a whole huge pie.
Banoffee Pie that's wheat-free
What do you do when you've invited someone for a meal only to find out they are wheat-free/gluten-free at the last moment? This is the real deal Banoffee Pie but gluten-free and made with just good wholesome ingredients.
- 4 x Golden Vanilla Flaxjacks (Other varieties that are good are mixed berry (GF) blueberry, Apricot and orange)
- 2 x Bananas
- 160 grams of thick salted caramel sauce (or use a tin of the traditional condensed boiled for 2-4 hours – see note)
- 225 grams of double cream
- 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder (Add more or less to taste or use grated chocolate)
- Whip the cream.
- Place Flaxjacks on a food preparation surface.
- Spread each Flaxjack with a quarter of the caramel sauce.
- Thinly slice the bananas at a slight angle so that each slice is oval and the same width as the Flaxjack. Then arrange the banana slices on the sauce covered Flaxjacks, overlapping the slices.
- Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with cocoa powder, to taste, through a sieve. Make and serve immediately or put in the fridge and eat within a couple of hours.
- Use a wide spatula to transfer to a plate for serving.
Making caramel from condensed milk
To make the traditional caramel-toffee sauce from condensed milk simply submerge a can of condensed milk in water, best on its side. Bring to the boil and simmer very gently, covered for 2-3 hours. Write on the can what it is and keep in the fridge until needed. The longer it is cooked the thicker and stronger tasting it will be.
Making ahead of time
If you need to make ahead of time either make the Flaxjacks into crumbs and use in a traditional banoffee recipe or see our Big Banoffee Pie recipe.
A treat but healthier too
Flaxjacks makes banoffee pie taste more special and it adds that linseed goodness. To make it gluten-free just choose from our gluten-free Flaxjacks range but for most gluten-free people (apart for the very most sensitive coeliacs) all our Flaxjacks which we make in wheat free and made in a gluten-free kitchen are suitable.
Lower GI
More filling and sustaining
Wheat-free, gluten-free
Lots of omega-3
High in fibre
Alternative Ingredients
Caramel Sauce
An alternative to salted caramel or condensed milk toffee is a jar of dulce de leche which can be found at most supermarkets if not already in your cupboard.
Instead of cocoa powder use 2 tablespoons grated chocolate – milk or dark – or any chocolate sauce, At a pinch sprinkle drinking chocolate powder. It's what you prefer or happen to have to hand.

Spring is here, and along with the flowers opportunity is blooming at NOVA Marketing. We are seeking talented, ambitious individuals to join our team! In light of this, we want to share some tips that will keep sharp recruits from losing out on the amazing chance to be part of our organization.
For example, we recommend anyone interested in joining Team NOVA Marketing spend a little time updating his or her résumé before sending it in. Key words should pop out so that important information doesn't get overlooked. We suggest making sure the document isn't too wordy though, for the same reason: being verbose could obscure vital details.
If a person doesn't have an extensive work history, she or he should upsell their skills and experiences. Volunteer activities, successful group projects, and even noteworthy personal milestones like running a marathon show soft skills like empathy, tact, and grit, all traits that we look for in our team members.
In the digital era social media accounts can be accessed by hiring managers, so we also recommend reviewing all of your feeds to ensure your postings reflect the personal brand you want to project. At the same time, it's a good idea to make sure any career info is up to date.
Once these steps have been taken, it's time to hand that résumé in on our Join Us page. Then, like NOVA Marketing on [Facebook] to learn more about our team and office culture.

Audit Shield basically offers cover for professional fees incurred when accountants assist a client in responding to the review, audit or investigation of the tax returns. It is the best solution that helps in gaining protection against the cost of being investigated, reviewed and audited by the Inland Revenue Department. Although there are a variety of methods available for reducing the chances of being investigated and audited, like submitting the returns on time, keeping complete and accurate records, paying taxes on time, showing reasonable drawings and income. But still the need for Audit Shield services is truly indispensable.
Need for Audit Shield services
These days, the reliable audit shield services provide a cost effective method for getting maximum protection and great peace of mind against the substantial cost. It is quite common that the individual or business returns are subjected to random reviews, audit or investigation. It becomes the responsibility of the person to bear the cost that is involved in providing the complete information that is required. The entire process of audit is not as easy as it appears. Even the simplest enquiry needs hours of work. It becomes really important, especially where there are unusual circumstances, complex environment, multiple companies or years involving thousands of dollars in accounting, and hence, legal fees can be incurred.
Well, now the ATO has become a regular feature in media as the government agencies are continuously allocating additional resources for all sorts of audit activities, and they continue to refine the data matching capabilities. The chances have increased that the client needs to go through some form of enquiry or audit from the government agency. Hence, one must find a reliable audit shield service provider. It is a new industry that is flourishing at a good pace due to the increasing threat of tax audit processes. The professional usually comes up with the best plans and insurance policies that one can avail at budget friendly prices. It is not just beneficial for the person but also for the business.
Why people need Audit shield services
ATO has truly proven that the work related expenses generally occupy the top position in the audit list. There are numerous benefits of opting for the audit shield services. Audit Shield offers great coverage on the professional fee that is usually charged when someone provides assistance in responding to the eligible official reviews, audits, enquiries and investigation of lodged files.
It is quite helpful in avoiding disputes between clients regarding the fees. There is usually no issue such as deductible or excess payment. The entire process is quite proactive and cost effective for the clients. It also offers cover for the previously lodged files, including the ones that are yet not prepared or lodged.
It is always better to invest in a service process that offers assistance of experienced professionals. The professionals usually have years of experience. They know well how to deal with the situation and help the client to take up maximum without tying up the precious resources of the organization.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — More than 100 acres (40 hectares) of woodland along southern Indiana's Lake Monroe has been added to the Hoosier National Forest.
The property is near the Hardin Ridge Recreation Area that's operated by the U.S. Forest Service. Hoosier National Forest official Ron Scott tells The (Bloomington) Herald-Times that the family owning the land first offered to sell it about five years ago.
Scott says the 113 acres (46 hectares) of undeveloped land hasn't been logged for many years and now has a mixed hardwood forest. He says the family was patient as Hoosier National Forest leaders sought funding for the $445,000 purchase, which was approved last year.
The Hoosier National Forest includes some 204,000 acres (82,556 hectares) extending from the Bloomington area south to the Ohio River.

'So you wanted me to be honest. Did you think you could handle it? Every single excruciating detail from every single day of our lives. It is believed that the average human being thinks around 600 thoughts per second. Do you think you can handle them all, each one of them waving their red and green banners in a cacophony of opposites, an amalgam of contradictions? Did you think that I entertained only one kind of thought? I can assure you that I've had the kind thoughts which would please you on any given day and I've had those, you're afraid I might be having. Do you think you could bear acquainting yourself with all the filthy, nasty, self-deprecating doubts that you have for yourself reflected all over my thoughts?
You wanted to know why I went away. You thought I could not love you, for if I had, I would have stayed. Don't you think it's easier for you to think this way? Is it easier that you hate me? Hatred is a comfort when you have no answer. But what if you knew that I did love you. What then? Perhaps you would not be able to hate me anymore. Perhaps you would be left grappling in the dark for answers that suddenly went poof into the emptiness.
My demons, they will become yours, battling with you with all the fears that you so successfully keep at bay.
They will take my form and seduce you and then leave you in the dust and you will feel such a resentment towards me, you will shake and shiver in your revulsion. Do you want that? Will that be better than this impasse we have reached, this reality we have paused at, this distance we have adopted to keep our characters intact? Maybe, maybe not. But the question remains, do you still want me to be honest?

Renee~ Thanks for thinking of my boys! Now that my sister has a child(in NJ) that the teacher has referred for testing (he is probably Aspergers) and for help for writing-I now realize what a HUGE difference there is among states and even districts in a state.
Grant: Great team of teachers, and the adjustment to 6th grade was better than I could have hoped. Did he have a stellar year as far as grades, no. In fact he failed math, has a D, 2 cs in core subjects, but he passed all the state testing with only modified math. More importantly his teachers helped get his self-confidence back and he enjoyed learning again, especially in social studies. I will never forget his teachers and the other staff who worked as a team and included us as part of the team. We still used an advocate for his annual on May 22nd, still not getting what he needs as regards to social skills, but at least he will get help in the school setting. Besides 3 months in 3rd grade he has never had social skills help in the school setting. It is a major issue-he does not know how to interact with peers and his main behavior issues stem from it. Had a good BIP put into place as the start of year is always rough (4 months is too long to adjust IMHO).
Holt: Had a great 1st grade year. Had to increase speech again, and there is some concern about his phonological issues affecting his writing and the process of writing is difficult. But, he really liked the gifted program and actually excelled in it. His favorite academic subject is math and we probably should have moved him into 2nd grade math this past school year. Now, they will not let him move onto 3rd since they are changing to the common core. I just hope he has a teacher who will challenge him in math in the 2nd grade.
Thanks for asking.

By Dan Karpiel
The Surveyor
Games often serve as measuring sticks, providing teams with a chance to gauge where they stand relative to the rest of their league. In their last two games, the Berthoud High School (BHS) softball team hosted the first- and last-place teams in the Tri-Valley Conference (TVC).
Berthoud handled winless TVC cellar-dweller Skyline with ease, winning a 15-0 mercy-rule-shortened game on Sept. 22, but then fell by a 10-2 final to undefeated and state No. 1- (4A) ranked Erie on Tuesday.
Erie 10, Berthoud 2
Much as they had done just 10 days prior, Berthoud was highly-competitive throughout the game with the top-ranked Lady Tigers. Erie's seven-run seventh inning provided the crooked final score in what was an otherwise closely-contested game.
"For 13 innings this year we were right there with the best team in the state," Berthoud Head Coach Buddy Kouns said after the game. Erie pitcher Rio Sanchez allowed only a single earned run and fanned 13 Lady Spartans in seven innings of work inside the circle while also hitting a pair of two-run homers that helped the Lady Tigers improve to 16-0 on the season.
Kouns maintained Sanchez was not locating her pitches as well as he has seen in the past, but in too many instances his Lady Spartans failed to take advantage.
"When she was throwing strikes, they were right in the middle of the plate and we just didn't jump on those," Kouns said.
Berthoud stranded eight runners on the afternoon with half of them failing to advance beyond first base.
Four of Erie's first five batters reached base to lead off the game, but pitcher Sarah Jorissen and the Berthoud infield worked out of the jam without allowing a single run. Third baseman Ashlynn Balliet showcased some gold glove defense when she fielded a sharp grounder hit her way by Maddie Foster, tagged third base to get a force out and then threw across the diamond to get Foster at first and complete the double-play.
Berthoud scratched out a 1-0 lead in the bottom half of the first when Addie Spears, who walked to lead off the game and advanced to second on a passed ball, crossed home plate when Erie committed a fielding error on a ball hit by Delaney Fouts. Fouts would record Berthoud's second, and final, RBI of the game in the fifth when she notched a base hit to drive in Tristan Pope, who had singled to lead off the frame.
After surrendering three runs on four hits in the third, Jorissen turned in a solid effort for the next three innings, allowing just two hits and a walk and keeping the game within Berthoud's reach. Yet Erie jumped out in the seventh, tallying four hits (including Sanchez's second two-run homer) and two walks, while also taking advantage of a Berthoud fielding error and hit batter to push seven runs across the plate.
Berthoud 15, Skyline 0
It took only four innings, but BHS was able to push 15 runs across the plate as 10 Lady Spartans tallied at least one base hit and seven recorded RBIs as Berthoud dominated a short-handed Skyline squad. Jorissen threw four shutout innings, allowing just four hits and zero walks while striking out four.
"I'm proud of the girls for getting done what they needed to do today," a pleased Kouns said. "You know how I try to get my teams to build for the right time of the year and I feel like we're doing that."
Despite the loss to Erie, Berthoud appears to be rounding into form as they prepare to make another run at the postseason.
Said Kouns "[Jorissen] is really coming into her own and getting confidence inside the circle … all in all we're headed in the direction we need to be."
"We have to play like we did today," said Spears, who has swapped right field for shortstop with Sedona Cook, when asked after the Skyline game what Berthoud has to do in the final two weeks for the season. "We've been getting on the bats, we've been playing solid defense in the infield, and the outfield has been great the whole season. We just have to keep that up."
Berthoud (10-6, 7-4 conf.) hosts Frederick on Sept. 29 for their final regular season home game before making trips to Holy Family and Windsor on Oct. 4 and 6, respectively.

Health care is always most effective when it is as personal and precisely targeted as possible. Unfortunately, many doctors and other healthcare professionals have little time today to form close, nurturing relationships with patients.
This might be acceptable when a single surgery or other treatment needs to be carried out, but it is never a suitable basis for longer term arrangements. A Medicaid program has, for nearly two decades, afforded a more personal alternative to disabled people and others.
The Consumer Directed Services (CDS) system has become a widely noted success story, with other organizations and agencies implementing their own equivalents. There are a number of reasons why CDS works so well in practice and so often proves superior to the alternatives.
CDS Puts Patients in Control
Needing to obtain any sort of healthcare can easily leave a person feeling vulnerable and dependent. That generally becomes even more the case when physicians, nurses, and others seem pressed for time and unable to devote a great deal of attention to any one patient.
The approach that gave rise to CDS was detailed in a widely cited 2001 article that appeared in the Health Affairs journal. The author described how individual states had been experimenting with allowing certain Medicaid beneficiaries to take charge of their care and treatment plans.
In practice, that strategy ended up being successful more often than not, despite the skepticism that some had previously expressed. Patients who were allowed to make their own arrangements tended to do so with more precision and specificity than professional case managers and others.
An Important Option for Many Today
As a result, CDS has become well-established in many state-run Medicaid programs and a favorite among beneficiaries nationwide. Far from being free of structure and support, CDS is designed to allow however much freedom patients might want and benefit from.
That built-in flexibility makes CDS appropriate across a wide range of situations. Patients who are allowed to make long-term arrangements regarding their care tend to become productively invested in the process. In the end, that almost always ends up meaning being more satisfied, and often healthier and better accommodated, as well.

Disposable Photographs
I'm quite the fan of disposable photographs. I can rarely be found without a disposable camera hanging around the bottom of my tote bag and I'm a strong believer that they capture some of the funniest/spontaneously strange moments in life! For me, there's a sort of crazed excitement about picking up a set of photographs after they've been developed so you can imagine how on edge I was when I picked up these ones which span a couple of months. Here's just a selection of the photographs, from Luke's and I's various adventures lately. I'm in dire need of a new photograph album to contain these pretties. My scanner has taken the colour out of some of the photographs but hey ho, that's disposables!

A conductive item, such as a key or jewelry, can short-circuit the battery if it crosses exposed contacts. The heat produced by a short circuit can cause a fire or burn skin.)

Disposing of Used (Unchargeable) Batteries Be aware that Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries can be recycled. Used batteries can be dropped off at the following local retailers (http://www.rbrc.org/): • • • RadioShack South Side Shopping Center (570.344.6100) The Mall at Steamtown (570.961.5405) 713 Scranton/Carbondale (570.489.1103) Sears Repair Services (Viewmont Mall) Vac-Way Appliance (601 Cedar Avenue) Recharging the Battery Recharging a battery more frequently than necessary may shorten its life. Therefore, recharge the battery only after it reaches the low power level in the radio. Disconnect the battery from the radio if the radio is going to be stored idle for any great length of time (two or more weeks). The battery charger's pocket will accommodate either a radio with a battery attached or a battery alone. Prior to charging a battery with radio, turn the radio off. To recharge a battery, use the following procedure: 1. Plug the transformer power cord into the charger base. 2. Plug the transformer into an AC wall outlet. The charger LED will flash green once to indicate a successful power-up. 3. Insert the battery, or the radio with the battery attached (radio turned off), into the charger pocket. a. Align the grooves on the sides of the battery with the corresponding raised rails inside the charger pocket. b. Ensure complete contact between the contacts in the charging pocket and those on the back of the battery. 4. Once the battery is properly seated in the pocket, the charger LED will light red to indicate that the battery is charging rapidly. When the battery is 90% charged (usually in one hour), the LED will begin to flash green to indicate that the battery is tricklecharging. When the LED changes to a steady green, the battery is fully charged. The battery should be at room temperature for recharging. If the charger LED flashes red, clean all the contacts with a pencil eraser. If the charger continues to flash red, the battery is unchargeable or not making proper contact.

The episode begins with a perfectly normal day at the Krusty Krab. The customers, however, are praising the Krabby Patties, which makes Mr. Krabs think they paid extra, but they did not. Mr. Krabs finds tears in a patty, patties without buns, and patties with only buns and no meat inside. Mr. Krabs asks why to Squidward, with him saying that SpongeBob failed his boating exam and that is why he is crying. Mr. Krabs goes to the kitchen to check. SpongeBob tells everything that happened, so Mr. Krabs offers to give him lessons for more money and shorter time. He mentions teaching Pearl how to drive to make SpongeBob feel more comfortable.
During the first attempt, they get in a boat outside the Krusty Krab but SpongeBob reverses instead of going forwards, causing them to crash. Mr. Krabs says it is a simple mistake.
During the second attempt, Mr. Krabs takes SpongeBob to a massive parking lot to practice on but SpongeBob reverses once again and crashes into the doors of the Krusty Krab. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob to drive forward slowly but ends up pulling the whole Krusty Krab wall off. Mr. Krabs checks the damage and totals up the cost in an upset manner. Mr. Krabs thinks for a moment and then gets an idea.
During the third attempt, Mr. Krabs thinks that if SpongeBob is by his house he will be more comfortable. His vocabulary puts him to sleep only for SpongeBob to be woken up. Even SpongeBob cannot drive to Patrick's house without crashing into the rock. Mr. Krabs then ends up flying into the Krusty Krab.
During the fourth attempt, Mr. Krabs says he will give a signal but as soon as he says the words "Put her into gear," he crashes into the Krusty Krab yet again.
During the fifth attempt, Mr. Krabs is already exhausted but before they start, SpongeBob gives in which gives Mr. Krabs an idea. In order to get the hang of it, they practice on a simulator arcade machine. SpongeBob thinks he has mastered it but yet again he manages to somehow destroy the Krusty Krab (This time, it is the roof in which he falls inside).
During the sixth attempt, SpongeBob manages to crash into the Krusty Krab sign, knocking it over.
During the seventh attempt, it starts off smoothly but yet SpongeBob slides up a metal ramp and ends up hitting the backside of the sign. The sign bounces them back into the roof, destroying the Krusty Krab yet again.
During the eighth attempt, they manage to go through the roof and out through the doors of the Krusty Krab. Then they appear out of nowhere, destroying the Krusty Krab yet again.
During the ninth attempt, they crash into a sign. As they keep on driving, many Bikini Bottomites are swerving in and out so they can avoid SpongeBob's reckless driving. They spin out of control, almost about to crash into the Krusty Krab but strangely, they do not. However, the Bikini Bottomites do, causing the Krusty Krab to be once again destroyed (This time, it is completely destroyed).
The scene transitions to Mr. Krabs looking very unhappy. He is holding the bill as SpongeBob crashes into the Krusty Krab for the tenth time. The repairman enters again to raise up the price on the bill.
The scene transitions again as SpongeBob apologizes. Mr. Krabs says he is doing it all wrong and thinks that SpongeBob does better when there is a lot of damage potential, so he takes SpongeBob to the most dangerous road in Bikini Bottom: the double roundabout. SpongeBob is so nervous that he does not want to do it. Mr. Krabs literally proves that even Gary could do it by letting Gary drive a boat through the roundabout. A few seconds past and he makes it with flying colors. Now it is SpongeBob's turn. He is just about to take the wheel when the police show up. Apparently, it is against the law to let a snail or any other animal drive a boat, especially in dangerous places. But Mr. Krabs only makes it worse after he claims he taught Pearl to drive without permission or a license. Mr. Krabs thinks he is getting a ticket but then realizes he is sentenced to be taught at Mrs. Puff's Boating School.

Samples for literary in a sentence
Are there literary values to his works? The mysterious is only one of many literary genres. In his work, the writer uses many literary means. Immediately after his studies he joined the literary community. She' s hiring a frahling. For example, Sierra Burgess is a literary genius who accidentally thinks of cubs.
But instead of pursuing his ambitions to be a literary scientist, Mr. Askoldov went to work as an editorial and rector for the Soviet Ministry of Culture. The Dacula High School teacher said at least 80 tenth graders were found betraying their literary skills, chemicals and global histories, Channel 2 said.
In this year the town has chosen 14 scholarship holders from the fields of art and fine art, literature and the fine art. Someone who considers literary art to be their lifeblood, Murphy seeks to put her pupils to the strength and splendour of words. The Texas Young Masters, a collaborative effort of Trust and TCA, honors pupils in classes 8-11 who have excelled in the fields of dancing, theatre, cinema, literature, music, and the fine art.
Maybe a literary scientist with a preference for motorcycles is the ideal tamper. One of Woodland Pattern Book Center's yearly Poetry Marathon & Benefit will collect donations on January 27 to promote its literary and other programs. The sample phrases are chosen from various on-line message resources in order to show the actual use of the term "literary".
about or by character of a book or script, especially those classified as literature: literary story. about authorship: literary styles. experienced in or familiar with literary; well reading. involved in or with the occupation of literary or writing: a literary man. characterised by an excessively or concerned representation of literary study; cantankerous; pettifogging.
Several literary works by Mr Gladstone have already been noted. There' s been a throw like the one he used to gather around a literary man. A literary or historic image sometimes sneaks into the text. But Gracie had assumed that he was literary in his taste and ambition. They were supposedly a literary association; they were actually diamonds grinders. adj. 1640s, "concerning the characters of the alphabet", from the francophone literary tradition, from the roman literarius/litterarius "belong to characters or learning", from littera/litera "letter" (see character (n.1)).
The significance of "literature-related" has been proven since 1737.

Features - Straight Talk
Looking for new Grand Prix
Formula One is about to enter new territory with the acquisition of Delta Topco by Liberty Media. From what has been said, we've all gathered a lot more effort and money will be put into digital and social media, as a way to broaden the exposure of the sport and attract a completely new generation of fans - something the old regime was not even trying to do as Bernie Ecclestone was quick to point out he didn't believe there was any money or future in those social platforms.
Being far from interested in these areas of the business, I'm glad to leave all the analysis, speculation and other to those who seem to go to the Formula One races but never see a car running, preferring to go around the paddock talking about money, politics, the Strategy Group and so on.
What really caught my attention in Chase Carey's many interviews was his mention of finding new markets for Formula One, new venues to host Grand Prix. At the same time, Gianluca di Tondo, the man who runs Heineken's massive Formula One program, was very open about wanting to have a new Grand Prix in Vietnam, because this beautiful Southeast Asian country is Heineken's fastest growing market. Heineken took its Vietnamese importers to Singapore last week and, according to di Tondo, they loved the experience and expressed a wish to have a Grand Prix close to Ho Chi Minh City, a city with more than eight million people and a vibrant economy.
Combine the two statements and you get the feeling the Formula One calendar will go through a face-lift in the next few years - once the current contracts expire - that may include an expansion from the already saturated 21-races calendar or some strategic changes.
Here I have to declare a personal interest because Vietnam has been my part-time home for nearly 20 years, I love the country and the people and I'd like to spend more time there, so a race close to home would be nice. But what the last 20 years have taught me is that getting the Vietnamese government to spend money on anything will be a very tough job. For 15 years there have been open talks about building a new international airport to take over from the heavily saturated Tan Son Nhat facility and not even a stone has moved. That's because building a brand new airport costs billions of dollars and while French and Japanese investors have expressed a lot of interest in building it, to then run it, the Vietnamese government wants them to build it but then reap the rewards from the new facility.
As some of you may remember, six years ago Ecclestone sent Hans Geist to Nha Trang, to offer a deal to the local authorities and everything went well until they were told they'd have to pay for the construction of a new circuit and a hefty promoters' fee every year. As soon as they heard that, their interest died and Geist didn't stay long to enjoy the lovely beaches in the area, returning home empty handed. So, if Heineken really wants a race in Vietnam, it's better the company is ready to pay for the whole thing, as the local authorities won't be interested in putting any money into it.
But if Vietnam comes in, does this mean we'll have a third race in Southeast Asia? Singapore's contract expires at the end of next year and there are internal discussions about the value of the event for the country. Losing what is one of the highlights of the season would be a blow to Formula One, the local government knows that, so they have the kind of leverage only Monaco has enjoyed. Hopefully a new deal will be done soon, one that will suit both parties and will keep the night race on the calendar. Malaysia, on the other hand, may be on its way out at the end of the current contract, which expires at the end of 2019. The locals spent quite a bit of money resurfacing the Sepang circuit but the government has lost all interest in the Grand Prix and it wouldn't be a surprise if they'd drop it, opening the doors to Vietnam. And Thailand could be an option too, but only after the country's situation becomes stable again and Red Bull would be massively interested in it, as would Heineken and other major players in Formula One.
Another Asian country that could get a Grand Prix is Korea, but not down in Yeongam, where not even the Koreans wanted to go: if Formula One is to return to the country it has to be to a track close to Seoul, as that would attract a lot of fans to the grandstands.
Looking at Europe, I guess Germany has to be a permanent feature and France should be back in the calendar, but Spain may be under threat after Fernando Alonso's retirement, as interest will seriously dip without the local hero - unless Carlos Sainz gets a chance with Red Bull and becomes the second Spanish Grand Prix winner.
One venue under serious threat, because the contracted improvement in the facilities is not happening, is the Canadian Grand Prix because there's no alternative to Montreal for Formula One. A second, maybe even a third race in the United States would more than make up for it and with Liberty Media being based there, it shouldn't be too difficult to do a couple of new deals.
A return to Buenos Aires, as long as the Oscar Galvez circuit would get a serious face-lift, would do wonders for Formula One because the huge success that was the return to Mexico, one year ago, would certainly be repeated in Argentina, such is the South American's love for motor racing.
Finally, there's Africa, absent from the Formula One calendar since 1993. Ecclestone has made dozens of attempts to get back to South Africa, mainly to Cape Town, with no success, but maybe with more favourable conditions for the promoters things could change. Morocco could be an alternative, as the country is stable, there's a lot of passion for racing there and a good amount of money to invest, but somehow negotiations with the locals have never picked it up.
Having said all that I seriously hope the calendar doesn't grow to 25 Grand Prix per year and I'd rather see a few races rotate - with a hardcore of 14/15 races being permanent features and the others getting an event every other year - with 20 races being the limit. Otherwise the wife may kick me out of Vietnam and there goes my retirement plan...

Time and a bit of creativity have the ability to do wonderful magical things to ordinary ingredients. Just about every culture I can think of has their own version of rice pudding; one that uses very ordinary ingredients and lifts them them by using a bit of time and elbow grease, ingenuity and either fat, sugar or both, turning what would have been scraps in the cupboard into something that sustains us. From what I can tell, it boils down to the little tweaks and ingredient changes that has differentiated one culture's version of this recipe from the next. I would also venture to say not only does it vary between cultures, but likewise from family to family within a culture, as it's one of those dishes that gets passed down through the generations.
In the UK the classic rice pudding recipe tends to pair back to rice, milk, cream and sugar, sometimes with the addition of vanilla or cinnamon and raisins, making it either in a pot on the stove or in the oven. Puerto Rican arroz con dulce often involves soaking the rice overnight, and adding rum soaked raisins as well as coconut milk and cream along with spices like cloves, cinnamon, ginger amongst other ingredients to the dish. Jamaican versions might see allspice as well as toppings like crushed pineapple or cornflakes added. Mexican arroz con leche versions often include an egg or egg yolk for richness and Portuguese versions add lemon zest. Peruvian versions can include condensed milk. Nordic countries might serve it drizzled with more milk or even fruit juice. In a variety of Asian cultures saffron, coconut, banana, pistachios, jaggery or rosewater might be added. It quite literally spans the globe, changing every so slightly as it does.
I came across Arroz con Leche all over New Mexico, how it was made varied slightly from household to household. Like many of the best dishes in the world, it isn't so much a restaurant dish as it is a family dish, so I would be a bit surprised to find it on a menu. It is however a dish that is infused with simple comforts, and continues to remind me that even when we believe our kitchen cupboards have little to offer on a cold winter night, a little bit of tenderness and care can go a long way.
You can make this dish without the evaporated milk if it's not your thing. I almost left it out the first time I made it. In the end however I went against my instinct and added it in as an experiment – I'm glad I did. I found it adds to the custardy flavour that I love so much, and also helps cut down the sweetness. That said it's pretty delicious without too- though I'd cut back on the sugar a bit if omitting.
Arroz con Leche
190g/1 cup short grain white rice
900ml/4 cups water
2 cinnamon sticks
3 cloves
zest of 1/2 lemon plus more for garnish
150g / 3/4 cups golden caster sugar
1 egg
700ml / 3 cups whole milk
3 teaspoons vanilla essence
2 large handfuls raisins (optional)
1 tin evaporated milk (optional)
In a medium sized heavy bottomed pot, soak rice with cinnamon sticks, cloves and lemon zest in water for 1 hour. After an hour, stir, bring to the boil and carry on cooking until water is almost completely evaporated, continuing to stir periodically.
In a separate large bowl, beat the egg into the milk, following with three teaspoons (yes three!) of pure vanilla essence.
Pour the golden caster sugar into the cooked rice, stir to combine, then follow with the milk/egg/vanilla. Now is where the stirring really begins. Turn your heat down to a medium low, find some great music or a podcast to listen to, and slowly begin to stir away. Once the milk cooks down a bit add in your raisins and evaporated milk if using. Just. Keep. Stirring. Let your mind wander. This is part of the magic of this dish- the excuse to just be.
Once it's reached your desired consistency remove the pot from the hob so as not to burn the bottom and serve in individual dishes. I topped with some additional lemon zest for a bit more sour/bitter contrast to the sweet and creamy dish. Cinnamon is always good too.

The day a child turns a year old is special to their parents and family. They would like to celebrate the child's 1st birthday with a memorable occasion for everyone involved. When it comes to celebrating the little one's first birthday, gifts play an important role. Below are some first birthday gift ideas that'll help you choose an ideal present for the special baby in your life.
If you're looking for 1st birthday gifts for a boy or girl, look through the sections below to gain present ideas.
When the child is old enough to appreciate it, this collage will make the child laugh out loud as they see their picture from a much younger time. You can buy the collage online or at a crafts store and personalize it by adding different photos of the child from different events doing funny thing.
If you're gifting the collage to your friends' child for their first birthday, the parents will surely appreciate the thought behind the gift.
Music is a great way to make a little child feel joyous. A toddler's music set comes with a mini wave drum, a glockenspiel, and some hand bells collectively gathered in an attractive gift box. The child may not be able to use the instruments, but the sounds produced by other people will keep the baby busy and help develop their senses as well.
Blue-colored money boxes that look like toys are cute 1st birthday gift ideas for sons, and you can purchase a pink box for your little girl. These gifts may come in the form of the engine of a train or as a cute fuzzy animal. Money boxes are toys that can also be used to safely hold money gifted to a child on his first birthday, day of christening, baptism, etc.
Instead of a money box toy train, a blue money box resembling a cute teddy bear can be gifted to a child on his first birthday. A toddler will not understand what to do with a money box, but as they grows older, they will appreciate this exciting gift from one of his dear ones.
One of the most useful first birthday gift ideas is a full-size rocking chair that not only gives them the chance to rock as a baby but also offers extra seating for their room when they grow up.
The cupcake set, including items like a cupcake birthday bib with matching socks, a bath squirter block for cleanup once the cake is savored, and a spoon set, is sure to be appreciated. Along with this present, you can give a set of cupcakes for the baby and their parents to relish on their first birthday.
You can give the baby a personalized trinket where their parents can preserve their 1st tooth. Choose a silver-plated trinket that comes in a gift box placed on a soft pouch, making a special gift not just for the child but their parents as well.
This is the perfect toy and carrier for a baby's belongings, being able to hold possesions and ride the wagon.
A first birthday candle with pink flowers designed on it is just the ideal gift. Also, if the words Happy 1st birthday are engraved on the candle, it'll go perfectly with the theme of the event and persoanlize it even more. Such a cute candle gift will make the yummy birthday cake look quite attractive.
A cradle-shaped gift basket full of a baby's items in pink or blue is just the ideal gift for the little one's first birthday. Such a gift basket may include a picture frame, a soft teddy bear, and one or two toys for the baby.
A little child's first birthday is so important for their parents! While celebrating the event, wear adorable colored hats topped with a pink or blue colored candle. The words First Birthday can be embroidered on such a hat. Go for a party hat that's decorated with pink flowers, steamers, and laces.
A beautifully adorned bangle bracelet made of sterling silver is one of the best 1st birthday gifts that parents can get for their baby girl. The bangle has an oval structure that makes it easier for the child to wear the bracelet on her special day. Parents can customize this gift by having their child's name inscribed on the oval structure.
This is indeed one of the funny 1st birthday gift ideas. This gift set includes a pair of adorable hippo shaped booties, a bib, and a child's favorite food. In addition, such a gift basket may include a plush hippo toy that the child can add to their teddy bear collection.

In this article, I defend the need for meaningful dialogue about the foundations of human rights. The article consists of four main parts. Part I provides context for the argument by discussing the status of foundations in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and several other human rights legal instruments. Part II outlines the main criticisms of foundationalism by Michael Ignatieff and Richard Rorty. Part III deals with two main problems raised by anti-foundationalist positions. First, the motivation to defend and implement human rights is often tied to a rational understanding of why these rights are worthy of protection. Second, rejecting the search for rational foundations can itself lead to ideological problems, even if this search cannot ultimately succeed. Silence concerning justifications for rights informs our conversation about them, and making any concealed underlying assumptions explicit can be valuable. Finally, Part IV discusses ways in which a genuinely dialogical foundationalism can be possible - one that does not fall into the trap of dogmatism. More specifically, this section addresses the possibility of a secular foundationalism by examining Michael Perry's critique of this approach.

Human rights-based service delivery
Assessing the role of national human rights institutions in democracy and development in Ghana and Uganda
Richard Iroanya, Patrick Dzimiri and Edith Phaswana
English abstract: This article examines the extent to which National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) in Ghana and Uganda contribute to the strengthening of democracy and sustainable development in those countries. A human rights-based approach is used to investigate human rights violations, marginalization, exclusions, and discrimination against vulnerable groups in society. This article examines whether NHRIs are proactive in adopting preventive measures to protect and promote human rights within the African context. The study utilized a qualitative methodology and a case study design. It found that the legal environment on which NHRIs are located and their operations largely determine their effectiveness, as well as whether good governance and sustainable development are achievable.
Spanish abstract: Este artículo examina hasta qué punto las Instituciones Nacionales de Derechos Humanos (INDH) en Ghana y Uganda contribuyen al fortalecimiento de la democracia y el desarrollo sostenible en esos países. Se utiliza un enfoque basado en los derechos humanos para investigar las violaciones de los derechos humanos, la marginación, las exclusiones y la discriminación contra los grupos vulnerables de la sociedad. Este artículo examina si las INDH son proactivas a la hora de adoptar medidas preventivas para proteger y promover los derechos humanos en el contexto africano. La investigación requirió de una metodología cualitativa y un diseño de estudio de caso. Se descubrió que el entorno legal en el que se encuentran las INDH y sus operaciones determinan en gran medida su eficacia, así como también si se puede lograr una buena gobernanza y un desarrollo sostenible.
French abstract: Cet article examine dans quelle mesure les institutions nationales des droits de l'homme (INDH) au Ghana et en Ouganda contribuent au renforcement de la démocratie et du développement durable dans ces pays. Une approche fondée sur les droits de l'homme est utilisée pour enquêter sur les violations des droits de l'homme, la marginalisation, les exclusions et les discriminations à l'encontre des groupes vulnérables de la société. Cet article examine si les INDH sont proactives dans l'adoption de mesures préventives pour protéger et promouvoir ces droits dans le contexte africain. L'étude a utilisé une méthodologie qualitative et une étude de cas. Il a été constaté que l'environnement juridique dans lequel les INDH sont ancrées ainsi que leurs opérations déterminent en grande partie leur efficacité et les conditions de réalisation de la bonne gouvernance et du développement durable.

The basic human right to sexual autonomy and self‐determination encompasses two sides: it enshrines both the right to engage in wanted sexuality on the one hand, and the right to be free and protected from unwanted sexuality, from sexual abuse and sexual violence on the other. This concept elaborated by the European Court of Human Rights, in the light of European legal consensus, suggests that the age of consent for sexual relations (outside of relationships of authority and outside of pornography and prostitution) should be set between 12 and 16 years. In any event the age of criminal responsibility should be the same as the age of sexual consent.
A human rights-based approach
A gate to development of African women's land rights?
Karin Tengnäs
The global competition for African land is at a historical peak. Local effects of large-scale land acquisitions depend on multiple factors, but women's rights and livelihoods are generally very fragile due to historical and contemporary injustices. Good land governance is important for turning the land acquisitions into equal and equitable development opportunities. The human rights-based approach promotes good governance by adding strength and legal substance to the principles of participation and inclusion, openness and transparency, accountability and the rule of law, and equality and nondiscrimination. By empowering rights-holders and enhancing duty-bearers' capacity, international development cooperation can lead to wider and more gender-balanced inclusion of civil society in negotiations of large-scale land acquisitions and greater adherence of duty-bearers to the rule of law. This is especially important in African countries with large amounts of land and weak legal and institutional frameworks to protect rights, especially those of women.
Human Rights, Victimhood, and Impunity
An Anthropology of Democracy in Argentina
Michael Humphrey and Estela Valverde
This article explores human rights politics in the transition from dictatorship to democracy in Argentina. Its ethnographic focus is the phenomenon of families of victims associations, usually led by mothers, that first emerged to protest against mass disappearance under the military dictatorship. Democracy has also produced new families of victims associations protesting against different forms of state abuse and/or neglect. They represent one face of the widespread protest against a 'culture of impunity' experienced as ongoing insecurity and injustice. Private grief is made an emotional resource for collective action in the form of 'political mourning'. The media, street demonstrations, and litigation are used to try to make the state accountable. State management of this public suffering has sought to determine legitimate victimhood based on a paradigm of innocence. The political mourning of victims and survivors charts the social margins of citizenship in the reduced, not expanded, neo-liberal democratic state in Argentina.
Peter Herrmann
Human rights debates seem to be a little bit in a dead end: on the one hand, taken for granted is defined diffusion of human rights; on the other there seems to be in permanent confrontation two incompatible positions, each of them suggesting the other side is in breach of the rules. One is the position that emphasizes the societal dimension of rights; on the other camp, we find those striving for what may be seen as a civic liberty interpretation This article shows that both positions miss a crucial challenge: both human rights theory and practice must be refocused and consider human rights as part of the process of society building, maintenance, and change.
Critical Engagements of NGOs for Global Human Rights Protection
A New Epoch of Cosmopolitanism for Larger Freedom?
On-Kwok Lai
Since the mid-1990s, the international norms for global development have been redefined under non-governmental organizations' (NGOs) critical e-mobilizations, powered by new media. International governmental organizations (IGOs) have been forced to make policy adjustments or concessions, resulting in new IGOs-NGOs policy regimes for consultative consensus building and for protecting people's economic, social, and cultural rights (ESC) for enhancing social quality. This paper examines the emerging cosmopolitanism in the information age, focusing on NGOs' advocacy networks, to understand the new media-enhanced participatory regime for global governance. It also illustrates a new form of social participation, as promoted by social quality theory, in the age of e-globalization and the information society. The paper has five parts. After outlining the globalization project threatening ESC rights, the second section examines critical engagements of NGOs and IGOs for human rights promotion. Parts three and four discuss, respectively, the struggles for ESC rights in shaping new ethics and norms for global development, and the variations of new social media mobilization. The paper ends with critical remarks on the project for larger freedom and human rights for all.
Tomas Max Martin
Ugandan prison staff both criticize and welcome human rights as a reform agenda that brings about insecurity as well as tangible improvements. In practice, human rights discourse is malleable enough for prison officers to cobble together a take on human rights that enables them to embrace the concept. The analysis of the emic notion of "reasonable caning" illustrates this malleability as staff concurrently take stands against inhumane violence and continue to legitimize caning while aligning with human rights. Human rights are locally negotiated, and it is argued that human rights reform cannot simply be analyzed as a submissive or opposing reaction to the top-down export of powerful global discourses. The embrace of human rights that unfolds in Ugandan prisons is rather a productive and multifaceted effort by prison officers to get purchase on legal technologies and reconceptualizations of prison management practices that affect their lives.
John Pearson
This paper asks whether David Miller's minimalist theory of human rights is coherent with his claim that obligations of global justice involve obligations to provide people with a minimally decent life. I argue that there is a justice gap in Miller's theory: the structure of his distinction between basic and societal needs is such that people will be left below the level of minimal decency even when obligations of justice are met. Miller can either bite this bullet or look for alternative sources of obligations of justice. I take up the second option by arguing that there can be obligations of global justice to build institutions that enable societies to generate income and wealth.
Pierre Makhlouf
The persecution of ethnic and social minorities during the Second World War led to the creation of customary international human rights law. These laws serve to protect the fundamental rights and civil liberties of all individuals; even when a person is brought before a criminal court their right to justice will be protected. Through its immigration policies, the UK government aims to create a 'hostile environment'. The detention of migrants has become the norm, and immigrants have been criminalized through the introduction of criminal offences including entering the UK on false or no documents. The increase in foreign nationals convicted of such criminal offences is portrayed as evidence that criminal migrants are a danger to public safety. Laws have been changed and the role of the courts to protect the rights of children to a family life eroded to further the hostile environment.
