KUALA LUMPUR - A Malaysian court on Monday postponed the first trials of former Prime Minister Najib Razak, who is facing multiples charges of corruptions involving state development fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).
The Kuala Lumpur high court was set to start hearings Tuesday on the seven counts of criminal breach of trust, corruption and money laundering that Najib is facing in connection of 42 million ringgit (10.5 million US dollars) from SRC International, a former unit of state fund 1MDB, allegedly transferred into his personal account.
But an appeal court on Monday approved an application by Najib's lawyers to postpone the hearings.
Najib has been slapped with a total of 42 charges including corruption and money laundering, after his ruling coalition lose power for the first time during the general elections in May last year. Najib has pleaded not guilty to all the charges.

Maintenance default businessman gets tongue lashing from judge
By Mashudu Netsianda
A high Court judge blasted a prominent Bulawayo businessman and former South African Airways (SAA) boss, describing him as a spoilt and irresponsible man who enjoys a luxurious life at the expense of his own children.
Bulawayo High Court judge Justice Nicholas Mathonsi made the remarks on Monday as he dismissed an appeal by Elphias Maphisa (61) challenging his conviction and sentence after defaulting in paying maintenance for his child.
Maphisa, formerly employed by the SAA as an accountant, is in maintenance arrears of $2 475.
He was sentenced to eight months in jail for defaulting in paying maintenance for the upkeep of his minor child sired outside marriage.
Bulawayo magistrate Ms Gladmore Mushove last year sentenced Maphisa to eight months in prison which she wholly suspended on condition that he cleared the maintenance arrears.
Justice Mathonsi, who was sitting at the criminal appeals court with Justice Maxwell Takuva, said Maphisa's conduct was despicable given his social status.
"The court is not impressed by the assertion that a 61-year-old qualified accountant who was previously employed by South African Airways and owns an apartment in Johannesburg's Kempton Park could not find employment. It occurs to us that the appellant is a spoilt man who is extremely irresponsible," said the judge.
Justice Mathonsi said Maphisa was in the habit of siring children with different women and then leaving the mothers with the sole burden of looking after the minors.
"You've actually made it a habit to sire children with six different women and then abscond from the responsibility, leaving the mothers to solely provide for your children," said the judge.
Justice Mathonsi dismissed the appeal, saying it was baseless and lacked merit.
"Your conduct is despicable and surely you cannot expect to have the comfort of staying in a luxury house in a leafy suburb while not providing for your child. There is no merit in the appeal and the appellant clearly has means to take care of his child, and accordingly the appeal is dismissed," ruled the judge.
The state, which was cited as the respondent in the matter, opposed the appeal. Mrs Sifiso Sibanda from the National Prosecuting Authority argued that Maphisa had means to comply with the court order.
"It's my humble submission that the appellant doesn't seem to be a man of no means. Appellant alludes to the fact that he is an accountant and does books for Patapata Beer Garden on a quarterly basis and he can find similar jobs and work for a living," she said.
Mrs Sibanda said Maphisa, who also owns a 10-roomed house in Kumalo suburb, has an option to lease out the property and raise money for the upkeep of his child.
Maphisa's maintenance was pegged at $450 per month before it was later reduced to $225 per month.
The businessman, through his lawyer Advocate Lucas Nkomo, said he was an indigent who could not comply with the court order since he had no means to take care of his child.
He argued that because of his age, chances were very slim that he could secure another job.
Maphisa said he had two other minor children who are being looked after by their mothers in South Africa.
The businessman was on April 17, 2013, ordered to pay monthly maintenance of $450 for his minor child.
The fee was later reduced to $225, but Maphisa defied the order and did not pay the fees between July and December 2013, resulting in him accumulating arrears of $2 475. Chronicle

Researchers at Trend Micro have discovered a potential hack opening key speakers from Sonos and Bose to remote access. As first reported by Wired, the Sonos Play:1, Sonos One, and Bose SoundTouch systems can be located and taken over through an online scan, letting hackers play music through the system.
Researchers at Trend Micro have found that certain models of Sonos and Bose speakers have vulnerabilities that leave them open to hijacking, as reported by Wired. The accessible speakers are being exploited by hackers that are using them to play spooky sounds, Alexa commands, and... Rick Astley tracks.
Perhaps you've been hearing strange sounds in your home—ghostly creaks and moans, random Rick Astley tunes, Alexa commands issued in someone else's voice. If so, you haven't necessarily lost your mind. Instead, if you own one of a few models of internet-connected speaker and you've been careless with your network settings, you might be one of thousands of people whose Sonos or Bose devices have been left wide open to audio hijacking by hackers around the world.
The social network unveiled on Wednesday a security feature that lets you see a list of recent emails sent by Facebook. Successful phishing campaigns can be costly for consumers and companies. According to security firm Trend Micro, global losses from compromised business email scams, which often originate via phishing, will exceed $9 billion next year.
Researchers at Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative also suspect one of the updates is aimed at mitigating a nearly undetectable Microsoft Office exploit that takes advantage of a 24-year-old Microsoft protocol called Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE).
"The online tools we've seen show how traditional felony and cybercrime can work concertedly—or even strengthen each other—towards bigger payouts for the bad guys," TrendMicro reports.
According to research from Trend Micro, while 66 percent of companies say they would never pay a ransom as a point of principle, in practice 65 percent actually do pay the ransom when they get hit.
Researchers at Trend Micro have spotted the first known piece of malware to exploit a recently patched vulnerability affecting the Toast feature in Android.
A TV news report from Australia details how text messages have led users to install apps that secretly mine cryptocurrency, and Trend Micro found three apps in the Google Play store that mined cryptocurrency.
Russian developer, Alexey Khripkov, said he'd shared his mining code with other developers, which could explain the number of apps containing code referencing his oxothuk nickname that have also been called out by anti-virus firms such as Trend Micro in recent weeks.

Hatches Made Easy:
Eastern Green Drakes
Ephemera guttulata)
The Eastern Green Drake is the largest mayfly that can be found in any quantity
in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. They exist in Abrams Creek. The
Eastern Green Drake is the
Ephemera guttulata.
They are usually more
abundant in alkaline waters than they are in the more acidic freestone streams.
There are some
Hexagenia bilineata
mayflies, a large drake and some
Ephemera simulans o
r Brown Drakes in the park, but they exist in small
quantities in water that is basically too warm for trout.
When the Green Drakes hatch, the large mayflies will get the attention of every
trout in a stream. The large duns flutter around on the surface for some time
drying their wings before taking off. The large spinners will fall at dusk and
cause a feeding frenzy.
Green Drake nymphs are burrowers that are most commonly found in the slow to
moderately flowing water such as pools and backwaters that have soft or silt
bottoms. They spend most of their life buried in the silt, banks or soft bottom, but
molt several times during this stage of their life. They come out of their burrows
to molt as well as at night to browse for food and may be eaten by trout during
the process.
Nymph Presentation:
Sometimes weighted nymph imitations can be fished along the bottom of the
stream very late in the day with some success. Green drake nymphs can swim
well and action can be added to imitate the up and down, swimming motion of
these nymphs.
We have not fished the Green Drake hatch in Abrams Creek. We have fished
the Green Drake hatch in Penns Creek, Pennsylvania, for the last several years.
We have found that it is of little benefit to fish imitations of the nymph unless the
hatch is taking place. They work good in the mornings prior to a hatch but that is
about it. The nymphs hatch throughout the day, not at any one particular time of
the day. I would think that would be the case anywhere they exist. The nymphs
stay in their burrowers most of the time and are not available for the trout to eat.
We feel certain some anglers may have taken a lot of trout on nymph imitations
other than during the hatch, but we cannot recommend it based on our

Ambitious Open Spaces
23.02.2017 at 19:00
Open space and urbanization are often seen as two opposing forces. But in a region where city and landscape are so closely intertwined with each other, the mutual exchange between open space and urban areas presents us with many opportunities. Partly thanks to the efforts of design research, this understanding has grown significantly in recent years. Several initiatives have also been undertaken to bring together various parties who are concerned with open space: heads of governments, policy makers, civil society, stakeholders, researchers and new actors. Meanwhile, it is a shared ambition to use open space as a crucial building block and leverage for the future urbanization of our region. How can the open space be dealt with in a more ambitious way? What conditions can be created to make room for productive landscapes. How can the open space be a place for food production, energy production, recreation and nature? How can the open space best contribute to, or even guide urban development? These questions, their answers and initial experiences in the field, form the basis for collective reflection and knowledge. The goal is to achieve a competitive agenda to work together on more ambitious open spaces in the future.

With innumerable heritage sites, old monuments, languages, cultural ethnicities, beaches, deserts, mountains and what not, tourism in India is flourishing with leaps and bounds. Many national and international tourists are drawn towards the echoing valleys, shining beaches and even maddening and crowded metropolitan cities, thereby making the country a top priority within regular tourists.
The royal West is mainly dedicated to Rajasthan besides the industrial Gujarat, both of which are the pride of India. One boasts of its royal heritage and traditional culture while the other is acknowledged for its speedy modernization through rising commercial sector and biggest diamond industry in India.
The serene , and unfortunately troubled, East is basically famous because of the Seven Sister States, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Nagaland, Manipur, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram, that together forms the beautiful mountainous region with a distinctive wildlife and culture of its own. The lakes and rivers of this region are as splendid as the music and folk culture.
The North is acknowledged because of its beautiful hilly areas and sublime Ladakh passes, which are a tourist's delight. The exquisite flora and fauna of Uttarakhand, the lakes of Himachal, and the Tibetan culture of Ladakh in Kashmir, together invite the tourist's attention.
The beautiful coasts and ports of South India is equally charming. The sun kissed beaches of Andaman and Nicobar, Lakshadweep, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh and the mesmerizing boat houses of Kerala, provide as much relaxation as adventure.
Delhi, the capital city of the country is not only the political capital but also the heritage capital, with many old monuments and buildings of a tourist's interest. Agra, is a must visit because of the Taj Mahal and other Mughal architectural masterpieces.
Jaipur in Rajasthan is another city boasting of its architectural splendor with Rajput royal palaces. Kolkata is famous for its colonial buildings, while Northern Shimla for Victorian. And in case one is interested in getting to know of the religious side of the country then cities like Varanasi and Kashi are the destinations.
Besides the cultural identity of each state, there are some tourist sites which are acknowledged as World Heritage Sites and hence gather a lot of national and international viewers, some of these are the Ajanta and Ellora caves in Maharashtra, which are rock cut temples and monasteries of Buddhists, Jains and Hindus, the city of Hampi in Karnataka , which are the ruins of Vijayanagar Empire, the erotic sculptures of Khajuraho in Madhya Pradesh.
Besides these there are various temples and Buddhist sculptures famous around the world, and one of the seven wonders of the World, the marble Taj Mahal.
Most of the places and especially all the tourist spots have well connected air routes, and railways, which are available in various classes, catering to all the kinds of travelers. You can choose your pick according to your finances.
Also well connected road conveyances like buses, cabs, taxis, auto rickshaws and manual rickshaws are available, which gives you a close view of the neighboring attractions as well.
One can hire a private conveyance on rent and enjoy an intimate tour with your family and friends. While in Delhi and Kolkata the quickest and most comfortable means of travel would be Metro train.
Almost every state has its own regional language in the country and thereby authenticating the living and lifestyle of the people. It is better to learn basic and most important words or sentences, before traveling to a place. You can use various local dictionaries, guides or translation books to do that.
Though people would be able to understand Hindi, which is the national language and also English, which is popular because of Globalization, but for a tourist it is always better to be able to communicate in local language with the locals to get immediate help and guidance.
It is better that the foreign tourists get proper permission and necessary requirements to go to a place. Visas should be right and to the proper time period.
There are some places like, museums, temples or historical sites for which permission is needed, so in order to enjoy a delightful trip it is suggested to go through the necessary formalities.
You must always keep a good travel guide book with you in case you need to know anything about the weather, delicacy , customs, language or any other information about the place on an urgent basis.
The guides would be able to help you in emergency.
While on a tour in India, you would most definitely try all the local delicacies of the place, but do eat from good and healthy places, and try to avoid the street food. Whereas water should be consumed from well sealed mineral water bottles.
You should definitely take a visit to the local markets and buy various souvenirs, which every different place will offer. Shop for the wood carvings, paintings, glass bangles, antique jewelery, spices, pickles, and tea.
Depending on the area where you are travelling, you must attend some of the cultural events like a classical music night, or classical dance session. You can take the help of the guide books and make your plans.
Various fairs and festivals take place in India on regional or national basis, try to be a part of them and the most important is the Yoga session which you must try for a couple of days and feel the spiritual and psychological relaxation that this practice provides.
There are many things in the country for a tourist, but depending on your choice of area and interest, you can make your India Tour a complete delight.

Everyone hates them. Device drivers are like cockroaches; you can't get rid of them. Every time you turn around, you need to update them, and sometimes they bring nasty little surprises. Just the other day a routine device driver update turned into a 45-minute odyssey of uninstalling and restoring when it killed my wireless connection.
Just about everything has device drivers, too. You may be unaware of them, but almost everything with a computer chip in it runs a very basic and generic operating system, paired with a driver that lets it actually operate. It's not enough that your computer needs a driver to make it work with your printer — your printer actually needs a driver to work with your computer. What a mess, right?
Except, drivers are a very elegant solution to a very complex problem (when they work.) You see, it's practically impossible to build something like a printer or even a washing machine from scratch in today's world. The timeframes are just too tight. So, manufacturers use general-purpose chips to handle the basic tasks of turning the thing on, displaying words or numbers, or managing power. There's also an operating system that controls communication between all the parts. All that's needed is a way to tell the operating system what to do and how to do it. That, dear readers, is a device driver.
In the distant past of computers, you could only use printers that a computer could talk to without any installation. They had to work with specific, very boring standards. The idea that you could actually upgrade the computer in a very ordered, very structured way with new software to run new devices was a real boon to developers in the 1990s who struggled with ways to introduce new features.
Today, we don't think too much about device drivers because they tend to work a lot better than they used to… but there's still some potential for chaos, as I found out.

After your counseling session, if you want us to consolidate your credit card payments into one manageable monthly payment (without taking out a loan or putting your home at risk) we can further assist you. If our NFCC-certified consumer credit counselors determine that you are a good candidate for a debt management plan, you may benefit from lowered interest rates and/or waived late and over limit fees. We will counsel you on your options and you get to make the final decision.
Talk to a credit counselor and determine if you qualify for a Debt Management Plan.
Our Debt Management Plans And Your Credit Score
After 90 days on a Debt Management Plan, your creditors may re-age past due credit card accounts. In other words, you will be brought current. Having overdue debt payments are a big detriment to your credit rating and score.
Because of the way FICO calculates credit scores, it is possible for your score to temporarily drop when first starting on a Debt Management Plan. This is due to the credit lines being closed and now there is no available credit. However, after a few years of making consistent debt payments on your plan, you will have demonstrated a good payment history along with your credit lines paid down from their maximums and your credit report will reflect that.
Our Debt Management Plans Benefit Individuals and Families
Free Household Budgeting Assistance
We will help you create a household budget you can live with — our free personal finance educational materials and seminars will teach you how to budget your paycheck, understand your credit report, and more.
Cash Money Management Program
We will teach you how to live on a cash basis — so you and your family don't face mounting credit card debt problems again in the future. Our clients walk away empowered with the personal finance knowledge required to manage their money, save their money and spend their money wiser.
Emergency Personal Savings Fund
We will assist you with starting a crucial emergency savings fund for your household — having "just-in-case" money set aside will help you weather future emergencies without jeopardizing your personal finances. The hardest part is taking the first step and our credit counselors will help you start strong.

Electronic Frontiers Australia (EFA) has launched a fundraising campaign to raise money for future lobbying efforts.
The online rights group has fought for a range of Internet-related issues but is well-known for its stance against the Federal Government's proposed ISP filtering, as well as support for the introduction of an R18+ video games classification.
EFA is aiming to raise $100,000 to fund lobbying activities this year.
"Over the past three years, EFA has operated as a volunteer-run organisation; I and the rest of the EFA Board serve in a purely voluntary capacity," EFA chair, Nicolas Suzor said in a statement. "In past years and in recent months, we have had the resources to employ people to assist in our campaigns."
Suzor said the group wanted to bolster its impact as an organisation and is appealing for public donations through the EFA website. Funds will go towards project-based staff, expenses for media campaigns and limited travelling expenses so board members can attend consultation meetings.
The EFA has been a thorn in the side of Australia's mandatory Internet filtering scheme for the past two years. Last week, Broadband minister, Senator Stephen Conroy accused the organisation of disseminating misleading information to the public about Australia's Internet filtering plans, which landed the country on Reporters Without Borders' Internet censorship watch list.
Suzor denied the allegations and labelled the attacks "cowardly".

I am Ries van Twisk, Software Engineer. I am originally from Schagen, a little town located in North Holland, Netherlands. Since I was very young I got this fascination for computers and all knowledge involved around them. As technology moves forward at incredible speeds, one needs to keep up learning and creating new solutions to satisfy our modern world's demands. Software development is a science which needs to be interpreted in the way the customer's needs require. And for achieving this, the success relies on keeping a good communication between developers and customers, this approach allows us both parts an excellent configuration and realization of our final goal: satisfaction of a job well done!
Getting a little bit more personal I may tell you that some of my hobbies which I enjoy the most tend to always be related with computer software creation or developing in one or another way, such as the building of my own CNC router called MechMate, and a project that I started in order to complement my knowledge for the using of this machine which became eventually into a free Open Source CAD application and nowadays we call it LibreCAD. This application is free to the people and we have a community of users, contributors and developers involved.
I am happily married to Karina and together we enjoy work and simple things in life such as a beautiful landscape or cooking dinner together. We are currently living in Julianadorp within biking distance to the beautiful beach here in North Holland.

"We're interested in the whole human experience and that includes sex, exercise, play as much as it includes love, death and self." I'm talking to Kaj Löfgren at The School of Life's Conversation Cafe. The space is warm, made with blonde wood and decorated with books, most of which are from The School of Life series or written by the school's founder, British writer and philosopher Alain de Botton.
The School of Life runs classes that explore human concerns. In Melbourne, a faculty of 13 teachers cover topics such as How to Make Love Last, How to Be a Good Friend, How to Worry Less About Money and How to Stay Calm. If it all sounds too self-helpy, the school's credibility is in its approach. Its program is based on ideas from philosophy, art, film and culture in general. The "How To" prefixes are, in a way, an ironic nod of the head to the more preachy style of self-help out there. "There are powerful works of culture and philosophy that we think can provide practical wisdom for people's everyday lives," says Löfgren.
The word, "class" is also misleading. The sessions encourage participation. And for punters to start up what in the outside world might be considered inappropriate conversations to have with total strangers. "They're not lectures," says Löfgren. "It's not about answers at all. It's about better questions."
The School of Life has its headquarters in London where it was established by de Botton in 2008. It started in Melbourne as a pilot pop-up in Collingwood in 2013 and went gangbusters. Which wasn't surprising to organisers. The School of Life Australia Facebook page had roughly 1000 likes before it even existed. It ran 60 programs over 10 weeks in a space that used chairs from IKEA and that, in a sweltering Melbourne summer, had no air-con. Despite the five-week rush to convert a derelict warehouse into what became a thriving hub, the space won a Melbourne Design Award. At one point there was a waiting list of 800 people for a 25-person class.
When that pop-up closed in April the team went back to the drawing board. It negotiated a licence agreement to run The School of Life in Australia permanently.
In the permanent space at the south end of Bourke Street, the wooden, undulating acoustic ceiling and hidden cupboards in the wall mean that shifting from cafe during the day into a classroom in the evening is no trouble at all. Classes are 25 people. "Which is about the number at which it stays intimate," says Löfgren. "We've experimented with classes of 28 to 30 and it changes the dynamic." It doesn't surprise me at all that Löfgren and The School of Life have noticed this and taken it into consideration.
Melbourne was the first city to establish a school, after London. There are now active schools in Paris and Amsterdam. Rio, Sao Paulo, Belgrade and others now also have licences. "We think it's going to be a pretty fantastic global movement of thinkers and creatives," says Löfgren.
The faculty is made up of writers, creatives, novelists, secondary-school teachers university academics, philosophers and psychologists. The winter program starting on July 7 introduces a number of new topics and class formats. There is an Art As Therapy "tour" of the NGV, which is more of a walking exploration of human emotions framed by pieces of artwork than it is following a guide who points at art and tells you when it was painted. "It's with an art historian who also has an art therapy background," says Löfgren. "They will guide conversations about topics and emotions that are brought up by paintings."
There is also a Philosophy of Exercise workshop. It's a practical workout that consists of a five-hour jog around the city, with stops along the way. It's about exploring the idea of exercising the whole self and trying to get past the dualism of exercise being just for the body.
Pierz Newton-John is a writer and IT programmer who worked for years as a psychotherapist. He runs a class on How To Be Alone, one that asks, How Necessary is a Relationship? and the How to Face Death session. "They're the kinds of things you never stop learning," he says. "But it's interesting, even the death class, which you think would be depressing, is actually lively. Because so much of the focus is on life when you discuss death. I've always come away energised and switched on to life, rather than undone by the heaviness."
The school is also introducing Philosophy Breakfast on Saturdays. The hour-long session – with 15 or so others – will be a more straight-up philosophical discussion. Less personal – for those just into the idea of philosophy.
After about 30 minutes of conversation about the virtues and different types of emotional and intellectual learning over coffee, I feel my natural (default) cynic switch back on. I ask Löfgren what The School of Life can offer people who think sitting around contemplating our first-world problems is an unnecessary luxury.
"I'm a civil engineer by training," he says. "I'm a really rational, quite naturally cynical thinker. And when I came across the school I had a similar reaction, which was: it's a beautiful brand, and such a beautifully framed concept. But is there really something of substance behind it?"
He was convinced when he experienced the substance for himself. "The faculty and everyone behind the school is driven to push these ideas into the world so they can be engaged with by the mainstream. Not just a small, cultural elite," he says. "That doesn't mean I don't think people should have a natural cynicism. All I'd say is, I challenge people to come to a class and leave feeling the same way.
"We pride ourselves on providing entry points for everybody. It might be a Woody Allen movie, as much as it might be Plato.
"We're tearing apart assumptions and emerging at the other end with, maybe, a couple of things you can do in your own life that will help you to look at things a bit differently."
The School of Life's winter program runs from July to September. Tickets are currently on sale. The School of Life is at 669 Bourke Street, Melbourne. Cafe and bookshop opening hours are Mon to Fri 8am–10pm, Sat 8am–6pm.

Always running late? Be realistic, and stop gambling with time.
Clients often bring up their struggles with running late, and this can be evident in chronic lateness to appointments. Admittedly, I'm often pushing it as well. This is common in adults with ADHD, and those who are otherwise disorganized. These … Continue reading

Our Certificate in Sustainable Building & Design provides students with a solid grounding in sustainable design principles, along with hands-on experience in the design/build process. Ranging from community-scale planning to the details of photovoltaic installation, the Certificate covers a broad spectrum of topics from small to large scale. Balancing theory with hands-on practice, students have the opportunity to explore alternative, innovative, and experimental design and building methodologies and materials. The certificate program is designed for those wishing to learn the art of design/build while developing a strong understanding of the concepts and methods of green design.
The Certificate program includes the three-week Core Curriculum, plus an additional eighteen days of elective courses and workshops. Students enrolled in the Certificate program will also be expected, with the support of an advisor, to participate in a practicum project and presentation after finishing the full curriculum. Through this culminating activity, the student documents his/her theoretical and practical knowledge and skills in the area of sustainable building and design in a hands-on manner before a jury of professional architects and builders. The scope, topic, and form of the Practicum and presentation are determined by the student and advisor, depending upon the skills, interests, and focus of the student.
There is no official start or end date to the program, though we strongly suggest that students begin the program with the Core Curriculum. One can participate as classes are available and as one's schedule permits. With careful planning some participants complete the program within six months, while others might chip away at it over several years. There are no prerequisites for entering the program.
This course is available to Sterling students through our partnership with Yestermorrow Design/Build School. For more information about Sterling's partnership with Yestermorrow please visit this page.

Beauty Of Thailand I Miss International Thailand 2016
Thailand is always crowned amongst the top most beautiful girls in the world. Before you look at the contestants for this year Miss International Thailand 2016, these girls are not eye candy but represent a modern expression of Thai beauty with great personality, smarts and a Thai representative to the global village.
Thailand's most successful entrant came in 1971, when Supuk Likitkul placed 1st Runner-up to Miss International 1971 and in 2010, Piyaporn Deejing, repeated this feat and placed second to Miss International 2010.
Enjoy the beauty of Thailand and let's hope we can get another winner from Thailand for Miss International soon!

Eligible persons must have no insurance available to them.Essays may be submitted to firstname.lastname@example.com or by mail to Yaryan Eye Care Center P.O. Box 427 Connersville, IN 47331.

BI reviews visa upon arrival policy
MANILA, Philippines–The Bureau of Immigration (BI) is now reviewing the visa upon arrival (VUA) policy to determine if the scheme should be refined or be completely scrapped.
Justice Undersecretary Markk Perete said the BI's review started about a month ago and has already identified loopholes in the system.
SOJ Menardo Guevarra Press Conference
由 INQUIRER.net 发布于 2019年8月1日周四
The VUA is a facility available to Chinese tourists only. Perete however said other foreign nationals can also avail of it if they fall under the following categories: 1) Foreign investors/businessmen endorsed by the BOI, PRA, PCCI and other chambers; 2) athletes and delegates to sports competitions; 3) delegates/participants to international conventions; 4) foreign investors / executives in investments endorsed by the govt; and 5) officials of the WB, ADB and other development partners.
Perete said the BI will still formulate a proposal which will then be submitted to Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra who has authority over immigration matters.
Perete said based on the initial findings of the BI, one of the loopholes identified is the length of period covered by the VUA which is initially valid for three months and is subject to an extension of three months.
According to Guevarra, foreign nationals who avail of the VUA privilege can then convert the visa into a work visa or a special work permit to be able to stay longer and work in the Philippines.
"Doon kelangan ng more adequate monitoring and essentially intelligence work by the BI to prevent those situations na itong visa upon arrival which is supposed to be for tourism purposes ay magagamit for some other purpose," said Guevarra.
Perete added that the grantees conversion of the VUA to any other type of visa is prohibited.
Scrapping the scheme is possible but they still have to take into consideration the possible adverse effect specifically to the country's tourism.
"That scheme was developed to encourage tourists from China so the immediate impact if we abolish it will be on the tourism side," said Guevarra.
Another issue that they have to look into, according to Guevarra is the security issue raised by National Security Adviser Hermogenes Esperon on the influx of Chinese nationals in the country.
Guevarra said after the BI's review, they will coordinate with the Department of Foreign Affairs on the matter before deciding on whether to scrap or fine tune the system. /muf

Origins of modern freshwater prawn culture
This had not been realised before because the mature adult prawns had been collected in totally freshwater, sometimes up to 100 miles (160 km) distant from the sea. This observation quickly led to the rearing of larvae through all their developmental stages in 1962, as first described by Ling & Merican (1961), and the production of sufficient juvenile prawns to initiate grow-out experiments in ponds in 1963 (Ling & Costello 1979). News of this success spread rapidly and generated worldwide interest in freshwater prawn culture. Within 10 years, research and development projects had commenced in most Asian countries, as well as in Europe, the Americas and Africa. While Ling's discoveries were fundamental, it was the work of another pioneer, Takuji Fujimura (Fig. 1.2) that made the commercial development of freshwater prawn culture possible. This was the second major milestone in the history of freshwater prawn farming. Fujimura's research in Hawaii commenced in 1965, with the...
Table 54 Characteristics of a typical 10 million PLyr hatchery operating with two rearing phases
In 1995, 600 to 800 million freshwater prawn larvae were being produced annually from 50 backyard hatcheries in Thailand, sufficient to supply 6400 ha of grow-out ponds (Suwannatous 1996). Government hatcheries in Thailand, which stimulated the development of commercial hatcheries through a joint FAO-Royal Thai Government project nearly 30 years ago (New et al. 1982), continue to produce PL for stocking in open waters (Chapter 17). At the end of the millennium, prices for 20- to 30-day-old PL were US 1.25 1000 in Thailand, the same as in 1993 (New 1995), indicating some over-supply there at that time. Since then, the freshwater prawn sector in Thailand has expanded considerably and shortages of PL were reported as a major constraint for freshwater prawn culture development there by Schwantes et al. (2007). Similar shortages have been reported in Brazil (Valenti & Moraes-Riodades 2004, Valenti

Freshwater prawn monoculture may be extensive, semiintensive or intensive. These systems differ according to the farm plan and the level of farmer intervention in the production process. According to the intensity of the system, productivity may range from below 0.5t ha yr to more than 5 t ha yr. Wickins & Lee (2002) discussed the grow-out of crustaceans cultured in tropical climates at various levels of intensity and categorised the systems as extensive, semi-intensive, intensive and super-intensive. Although the words extensive, semi-intensive and intensive are frequently used in aquaculture, the meaning of these terms has been much confused, mainly because intensity categories cannot be defined precisely. Valenti (1998a) standardised each level of intensity for freshwater prawn culture, as described below. for other purposes, as for example, irrigation canals, reservoirs and rice fields (paddies). Such systems are generally stocked at low densities (1-4 m2), using postlarvae (PL)...
James F Muir and Julio V Lombardi
The grow-out of freshwater prawns is generally carried out in earthen ponds. These structures are usually cheap and simple to construct and operate, and with suitable management and simple inputs allow for the development of natural foods such as plankton and benthos, while providing relatively stable water conditions throughout the production cycle. Such features favour the growth and survival of the on-growing stock, and will normally allow producers to minimise the costs of production. Ponds for freshwater prawn culture are broadly similar to those used for fish culture, and can either be built by means of an embankment across a watercourse or by excavating and building up a structure into which water can be conducted by various means. In some special cases, for example the ghers of southwest Bangladesh, ponds are formed in rice paddy or other low-lying land, and typically contain an elevated Semi-intensive ponds are closely dependent on local site features and on the disposition...
National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology
BIOTEC is dedicated to the principle that the players in the shrimp industry should take an active role in planning and financing R&D for their industry. BIOTEC actively promoted the formation in 1996 of an industry consortium, the Shrimp Culture Research and Development Company, dedicated to solving problems common to the shrimp aquaculture industry as a whole. This consortium serves the industry directly and also serves as a bridge to other public and private institutions involved in relevant research, not only in Thailand but throughout the world.
Requirements for enriched Artemia by freshwater prawn larvae
Feeding vitamin C-enriched Artemia did not result in an enhanced freshwater prawn hatchery output (Merchie et al. 1995b). However, a significantly positive effect was again demonstrated on the physiological condition of the PL, as measured by a salinity stress test. A noticeable drop in the vitamin C level of PL, compared to larvae, indicated a specific need for ascorbic acid during metamorphosis, a stressful period. It therefore is likely that under suboptimal rearing conditions (stress situations), high vitamin C supplementation will enhance production characteristics. In this respect, Cavalli et al. (2000) Fig. 6.7) developed a standardised technique based on ammonia toxicity for the evaluation of the postlarval quality of hatchery-produced M. rosenbergii, which proved far more sensitive than the more common salinity stress test. Using this criterion, these authors were able to clearly demonstrate that, from larval stage III onwards, larval quality was superior in the prawn culture...
Applicability of Biotechnology to Specific Agricultural Objectives
Shrimp is one of the top 10 exports for Thailand, generating about 1.5 billion in annual export earnings. In 1999, there were about 25,000 shrimp farms, producing 240,000 t valued at 87 billion baht ( 1.8 billion), and employing about 1 30,000 people. Diseases are a major constraint in the production of cultivated shrimp. In 1994, the white spot syndrome virus became a major disease in the PRC, and quickly spread to the rest of Asia, including Thailand. The disease caused a sharp drop in shrimp production in the PRC from 1 55,000 t to 35,000 t, a decline of about 77 percent. National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (BIOTEC) quickly supported research at the Universities of Chulalongkorn and Mahidol to develop DNA probe technology for the rapid detection of major shrimp pathogens. Rapid diagnostic reagents were quickly developed, the technology was transferred to the shrimp industry, and the virus was effectively controlled. It is estimated that shrimp biotechnology...
CRIF (AARD) administers research institutes for marine fisheries, freshwater fisheries and coastal aquaculture. In the Research Institute for Coastal Aquaculture, research covers development of feeding materials for shrimp and fish improved genetic stock disease diagnosis production of enzymes, such as protease, from fish waste use of proteases to descale fish and fish preservation through drying and salting. Production of proteases by Bacillus stearothermophilus is being investigated at RIAP. Indonesia has great potential to expand fresh and coastal fisheries and shrimp production.
Opportunities BIOTEC
The Shrimp Biotechnology Service Laboratory was established in July 1999 at BIOTEC to summarize the reference PCR methods for viral disease detection in Thai shrimp farming. Laboratory objectives are to serve as the reference laboratory for major shrimp pathogen diagnosis based on molecular techniques, to conduct research and to provide assistance for the molecular detection of various shrimp viruses. BIOTEC is dedicated to the principle that the players in the shrimp industry should take an active role in the R & D effort for their industry, in both planning and finance. BIOTEC took an active part in promoting the formation in 1996 of an industry consortium (the Shrimp Culture Research and Development Company) dedicated to solving problems common to the shrimp aquaculture industry as a whole. This consortium serves the industry directly and also serves as a bridge to other public and private institutions involved in relevant research, not only in Thailand, but throughout the world.

Even just a simple "Hey guys, we're working on this, in the meantime, let's spawn Hulker Hell for a couple weeks.....". Or maybe the reality is more along the lines of "Hey guys, we know we said we were gonna spawn past event majors, and have not followed through on that, cause it would cause even less stability, so please bear with us.....".

Day 305 ~ Transform a piece of advertising so that it has a new message.
The masterpiece, created by me, is another monoprint. I liked working this way for the Day 297 project and thought I'd try it again. It measures 1 3/4 " X 2 1/4 ". I used acrylic paint to make the print.

Day 303 ~ Use reptiles as inspiration. + Day 304 ~ Make chimes.
So, I'm all caught up. I've completed the 304th project on this, the 304th day of the year. I rather enjoyed combining the days, actually. It was fun, sometimes more challenging, sometimes it gave me more to work with. So I'll kind of miss it. But I do intend to make the 60-some projects that are left, one at a time.

Day 301 ~ Pick a random day in history, research what happened that day and make something inspired by that event. + Day 302 ~ Work with a food package.
The random date I chose was by birthday 100 years ago.
Sergei Sergeievich Korsakoff, the first great Russian neuropsychiatrist, according to Wikipedia, was born on January 22, 1854.
Korsakoff is known for his studies of the effects of alcoholism on the nervous system, so I've created a label for his own brand of non-alcoholic Sparkling Cider.

Day 299 ~ Make something with silver materials. + Day 300 (!) ~ Make something which involves the sense of touch.
He's 8" tall and joins the stable of the other 'horses of another color', similarly created over this year.
I know, he looks more like a silver Airedale terrier, than a horse. I was going for the 'touch' component.
Hi-Ho, Silver!

Day 298 ~ Do an activity in reverse order.
I couldn't do this project. It's just so totally against my nature to do anything backwards, or differently from how I carefully plot things out. I'm an obsessively methodical person and this was too far a stretch from my modus operandi. The best I could do was list my typical day's schedule…backwards.
Read in bed until I fall asleep.
Take a shower.
Bring the horses in, feed them their evening mash and tuck them in.
Watch something from Netflix.
Eat some supper.
Clean the litter boxes and feed the cats.
Do some work in the studio.
Groom and exercise the horses (normally, not with bruised ribs). Turn them out into the big field.
Do some work in the studio.
Check on the horses.
Eat lunch.
Run errands or do some work in the studio.
Bring the horses in and feed them their morning mash.
Do computer stuff, like check my email and/or post my daily project on my blog.
Eat breakfast.
Take a shower, if necessary (!)
Do my exercises (normally).
Go for a walk (normally).
Take care of the horses and turn them out into the big field.
Write in my riding journal about yesterday's rides (normally).
Clean the litter boxes and feed the cats.

Day 297 ~ Use glass to create something.
- Apply a thin layer of acrylic gel medium to a sheet of glass.
- Paint a design over the medium, using a thin application of acrylic paint.You can also scratch into the painting with the pointy end of a brush to produce pattern and texture.
- Cover the painting with a dampened sheet of paper. (Here I used a piece of watercolor paper that already had a wash of gradated blue to yellow. You can see the yellow half coming through at the front of the horse.)
- Use a brayer, rolling it in one direction only, to transfer the paint to the paper and pull the paper away from the glass.
If it looks windy, I think I'm anticipating Hurricane Sandy! In fact, if you don't hear from me for some time next week, it's because we are without power. But then, some of you might be, too.

Day 295 ~ Write a letter to a fictional character. + Day 296 ~ Create something where you normally wouldn't.
I wanted to create this letter on horseback, not ever having done anything terribly creative there, I'm sorry to say. But, to be honest, I only created the photo. The letter was created in my studio. However, I would like a little credit for actually tacking up YoYo and getting on her. The bruised ribs and arm and big welt on my leg the shape of a horse hoof are keeping me from my normal range of motion.
Yes, this is YoYo that I am on, not Bela. I'm not a complete nincompoop.

Day 293 ~ Use salt as your medium. + Day 294 ~ Make something that is normally portable into something that isn't anymore.
So, anyway, salt, once portable, portable no longer. But at least it is where the horses can lick it up.

Day 291 ~ Make somewhere outdoors seem like it is indoors. + Day 292 ~ Work with squares.
I drew the grid onto a photo I took of the view from the front of our house. In Picasa I added the border and vignette effect.

Day 289 ~ Create something about someone else's job. + Day 290 ~ Write a love song to a pet.
A song to Cooper, sung to the tune of You Are My Sunshine…
You are my Cooper
My super Cooper!
You do your cat job
Well each day.
You keep my butt warm
Asleep behind me
On the chair
While purring away.
You catch the stink bugs
You catch the spiders
The ones that sneak
Under the screen.
You greet the people
Who come to see us
And you keep your paws
Nice and clean.
You are my Cooper
You're super duper!
You do your cat job
Well each day.
If I were you, though,
I'd ask a pay raise
And threaten finding
Another place to stay

Day 283 ~ Make something that makes a sound. + Day 284 ~ Make something that looks like it has been turned inside out.
It is made to hang, but this was an easier way to get a good photo. When it does hang, it makes a sweet little tinkling, clattery noise. And if it blows around too much, it ends up in a tangled and undecipherable mess, much like when we try to pour too much trouble out of our hearts to someone at once, perhaps.
The heart is made of canvas, sewn together and stuffed with newspaper. I had thought I would paint it, but I like the raw canvas with the color of the rusted stuff. Maybe I'll paint it some other time. The rusted stuff is from a collection of things I've picked up on my walks over the years.

Day 277 ~ Who would you be if you could be anybody? + Day 278 ~ Create something inspired by a piece of spam you've received.
First, I apologize for poking fun at anyone who uses English as a second or third, our thirtieth language. I took French for 6 years in school and all I remember is how to say I love you, and that is with an atrociously bad American accent. So I am in awe of anyone who can get his/her brain around a language other than the one learned as a child.
These two projects were a challenge to combine. What I've done is to choose who I would want to be, and that is any of my grand nieces or nephews because they all have wonderful parents. And I've combined that with the kind of spam I get, which is weird requests for my 'product' from places in the world I've never heard of. So I am imagining myself as young Holden, my grand nephew (I've used his artwork to illustrate the message. This was done quite a while ago. He's now eleven years old! How did that happen?) And I'm in a different country somewhere sending this spam to a potential customer. Make sense? Probably not. It was a stretch.
Some of these projects mesh more easily than others. This was a tough one. Mainly because I thought a lot about who I would want to be if I could be anybody. When I was a child I wanted to be just about anybody but myself. Now I'm kind of used to who I am, so it's harder to think of changing. I did let myself fantasize about it. I had myself younger, but with the knowledge that I will have ideally accumulated when I'm 88. I would be living in a tropical climate with flawless black skin so that I could ride my horses along the beach without worrying about yet another trip to the dermatologist. And, of course, I'd be independently wealthy so that Judy could retire. And be recognized around the world for my stunning artistic accomplishments. And maybe be an expert fiddler, too...
When I came back to reality I thought maybe I would miss the change of seasons, my blue eyes, stuff like that...maybe not the struggling to pay my bills part, though.

Day 275 ~ Use your pocket change to make something. + Day 276 ~ Put your finger on a random location on a map of the world, research that place and make something about it.
I got the ad from Google 'Images of ZARA'. After spreading the pennies, nickles, dimes and quarters on my scanner bed I scanned and printed the image, cut the print into the shape of the coat and glued it in place.

I know you are going to want to make one of these, so here's how ~ spray paint a bunch of little tacks brown, make the body of the bear out of balled up newspaper wrapped with masking tape, tear brown cloth into 1/2" strips and, using a brush to coat them with glue, wrap them around the bear until the newspaper core is covered, then use jeweler's glue to fasten the little tacks onto the body, as well as the googly eyes and a bead for the nose. It takes about 400 tacks for a 6" tall bear and a bit of patience.

As it is, I enlarged the border of a stamp and traced it, and repeated the pattern around a photo of CJ and Mishi, to mimic a frame. But, of course, it just ends up looking like a postage stamp. Albeit a very cute postage stamp.
For my friends out of the USA who might not know, we have 'FOREVER' written on our stamps so that when the postage rate goes up we can still use the stamps we have without having to run to the post office to get 1 or 2 cent stamps to make up the difference.

The body was cut from 3/8" Baltic birch plywood on a band saw and jig saw. The legs are mimosa sticks and the mane and tail are grape vine. They were secured by drilling holes into the side of the body, whittling down the stick to fit snug, and applying wood glue before inserting the pieces. I used acrylic paint for the surface. It's 8" X 11".

Day 229 ~ Be inspired by a bicycle & Day 230 ~ Make a container.
Here is the combination of Day 229 ~ using a bicycle for inspiration and Day 230 ~ making a container.
I found a bunch of different silhouettes of bikes and copied, cut up, rearranged and re-pasted (that's by hand, not in computer-speak, mainly because I don't know how). Then I did use the computer to scan the collaged image, using Picasa to invert colors and print the design in different hues.
I built the box from foam core and wrapped and pasted the paper to the outside. It's a little thing. Just 2"X5"X2.5". Now I need to make a little tiny bicycle to fit in it.

Tab Hunter Biopic Announced.
Tab Hunter
Born Arthur Andrew Kelm
July 11, 1931 (age 86)
New York City, New York, United States
Other names Arthur Gelien
Occupation Actor, singer, film producer, writer
Years active 1950–present
Partner(s) Allan Glaser (1983–present)[1]
Website http://www.tabhunter.com
Tab Hunter (born Arthur Andrew Kelm; July 11, 1931) is an American actor, pop singer, film producer, and author. He starred in over 40 films and is probably best known as a Hollywood star of the 1950s and 1960s.
Personal life
Hunter in April 2010
Hunter's autobiography, Tab Hunter Confidential: The Making of a Movie Star (2005), co-written with Eddie Muller, became a New York Times best-seller as did the paperback edition in 2007. The book is currently in publication and was nominated for several writing awards. It re-entered the New York Times Best Seller list for a third time on June 28, 2015 during the release of the documentary film based on the book.
In the book, he acknowledged that he is gay, confirming rumors that had circulated since the height of his fame. According to William L. Hamilton of The New York Times, detailed reports about Hunter's alleged romances with close friends Debbie Reynolds and Natalie Wood were strictly the fodder of studio publicity departments. As Wood and Hunter embarked on a well-publicized but fictitious romance, promoting his apparent heterosexuality while promoting their films, insiders developed their own headline for the item: "Natalie Wood and Tab Wouldn't."[17]
Hunter became close enough with Etchika Choureau, his co-star in Lafayette Escadrille, and Joan Perry, widow of Harry Cohn, to contemplate marriage, but he thought he never could maintain a marriage, and remained merely platonic friends with both women.
During Hollywood's studio era, Hunter says, "[life] was difficult for me, because I was living two lives at that time. A private life of my own, which I never discussed, never talked about to anyone. And then my Hollywood life, which was just trying to learn my craft and succeed..." The star emphasizes that the word 'gay' "wasn't even around in those days, and if anyone ever confronted me with it, I'd just kinda freak out. I was in total denial. I was just not comfortable in that Hollywood scene, other than the work process."[18] "There was a lot written about my sexuality, and the press was pretty darn cruel", the actor says, but what "moviegoers wanted to hold in their hearts were the boy-next-door marines, cowboys and swoon-bait sweethearts I portrayed."[17]
Hunter had long-term relationships with actor Anthony Perkins and champion figure skater Ronnie Robertson, before settling down with his partner of over 35 years, film producer Allan Glaser.[19] While serving in the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam War, his brother Walter was killed in action in South Vietnam on October 28, 1965.
Hunter was raised in his mother's Catholic faith which he has practiced for most of his life.[20][21][22] His mother died at age 92, and buried at Santa Barbara Cemetery.
Hunter has a star for his contributions to the music industry on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6320 Hollywood Blvd.
In 2007, a Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated to him.
