Quarantine Circular Review
Reviewed on PC
Mike Bithell has this wonderful habit of giving games journalists a reason to fear sudden incoming news from Twitter with no warning. In this instance, much like last August, we have another game out as soon as anyone found out about it. Set once again in the Bithellverse, although this time very much in the same world as Subsurface Circular, the new game Quarantine Circular takes place in the midst of a plague that has ravaged humanity. Vessels sail around full to the brim with medical staff in order to try and cure the illness that has taken so many.
The world crafting shines through in the incredibly well crafted dialogue, everything you need to know is explained in a way that doesn't make it feel like needless exposition. This is a game that respects the player's intelligence, and occasionally demands it as well. Essentially a visual novel, you make dialogue choices in order to achieve different goals as you go through the game.
Through the chapters you will be in control of different characters, all of whom have different personalities, it is here that the game differs most from its predecessor. The changing perspectives and the options that go with them add an interesting feeling of depth to each conversation. Instead of being consistent in your character throughout the game, should you be role playing as the person you are, you get this option and it is truly interesting one to consider.
As with Subsurface this is not a long game, up to about three hours for a play through, so making different choices isn't a huge time sink. The ability to jump into each chapter once you have finished further incentivizes you to play multiple times. You can easily see what the different outcomes are without a huge tax on you for doing so, this is the kind of thing that all of these games should have.
The sound design is fantastic with the music serving to keep you in the correct mind frame at each point, of course with Dan Le Sac at the helm again on this front it is no surprise. The sound effects are just as good, with the seagulls chirping and wailing off in the distance to remind you that you are at sea as well as the noises that one of the characters makes when talking. Graphically the game is good, the dialogue is easy to read, the choices are nicely animated and the interactions are clean and simple.
Once again Bithell Games have made an immensely enjoyable and though provoking game. The marketing of course has been non-existent but that is apparently just how things are done now. If you like Subsurface Circular then you will love this, if you didn't play it then go and play it as well.
Oh and in case you want to read Mike Bithell talking about games generally, you can check out an interview with him here.
Quarantine Circular is another brilliantly written game that will have you taking up different mind sets to get through it. It is at times charming, upsetting and inspiring and will have you playing it through to its conclusion in one sitting without you realising.

God's Will Is God's Word!
Contributed by Tony Abram on Jun 25, 2008 (message contributor)
Summary: GOD'S WILL IS GOD'S WORD!The Word of God is the Bread of Life. When we receive it, believe it and act upon it then God is able to work the promises of God in our life. We want to share some wonderful promises from the Life and Words of Jesus in this out l
The Word of God is the Bread of Life. When we receive it, believe it and act upon it then God is able to work the promises of God in our life. We want to share some wonderful promises from the Life and Words of Jesus in this out line.
I. Jesus power was manifested everywhere He went.
Acts 5:16 Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
A. He has not lost any of His power.
Matt. 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
1. You cannot have more power than all power.
2. He never changes.
Hebrews 13:8 tells us that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever!
B. He is still Savour today.
Hebrews 7:25 Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them
He not only has power to heal but He has the power to "save to the uttermost".
II. He gives us joy, peace and anointing in this life too.
Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
Allow the Lord to impart His life into you by placing faith in His Word. Begin to praise Him for this promise.
Neh 8:10 ......for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
We can now walk in the power of His Spirit.
Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
III. We must seek Gods perfect will for our lives. Jesus always prays the will of God, and He prays that the will of God be done here on the earth just as it is in heaven.
Matthew 6:9-10 Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven.
Many times we want God's Will to be what we want. However, Remember the words of Jesus when he was faced with the cross, He prayed not my will but thy will be done.
Doing the Will of God will make you part of the family of God.
(Mark 3:35 KJV) For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
Keeping ourselves from the world will help us to the perfect Will of God
(Rom 12:2 KJV) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
We need always to His Will with all of our hearts and strength.
(Eph 6:6 KJV) Not with eye service, as men pleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
God wants us to stand complete in Him.
(Col 4:12 KJV) ...... that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
Doing the Will of God we must give thanks.
(1 Th 5:18 KJV) In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
1, We do not thank God for every thing that happens to us, but in everything.
Doing the Will of God will bring the promises of the Lord.
(Heb 10:36 KJV) For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
Doing the Will of God is doing good and it will silence foolish men.
(1 Pet 2:15 KJV) For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
Doing the will of God will outlast the world and all that is in it.
(1 John 2:17 KJV) And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever.
IV. (If a believer honors God and lives according to the Word, He says...)
Deuteronomy 11:21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
A. God's plan is that His children begin to experience the inheritance of the heavenly life while here on the earth.
1. We're already His children, and we have been given special rights.

In the previous blog post on Creating a Successful Action Plan, we shared the trauma sensitive vision questions as a tool used to encourage active reflection and thoughtful inquiry around ways to achieve the vision of a trauma-sensitive school. These questions are based on the six attributes of a trauma-sensitive school and serve as a reminder to keep the trauma-sensitive vision at the forefront of thinking as schools identify priorities then plan, implement and evaluate action plans.
Here we share another set of questions as a useful tool for creating a successful Action Plan: the Flexible Framework Questions. Once the school's steering committee has identified its major actions, answering the Flexible Framework Questions will ensure that trauma-sensitivity weaves throughout all of the school's core operations. These questions are designed to support whole-school culture change by helping educators "cover the bases" and ensure that trauma sensitivity is infused into each aspect of the school. The questions inquire about six familiar and important school operations that educators should keep in mind as they implement trauma-sensitivity school-wide.
Flexible Framework Questions
1. What role does school and/or district leadership play in implementation?
Consider the following:
- Actions by school and/or district leadership
- Other initiatives already in place at the school
- Supports for staff
- Staffing arrangements
2. What professional development is necessary for implementation?
Consider the following:
- Professional development topics for the full staff
- Specialized topics for teachers and student support staff
- How the school's own experts and those in the community can help staff extend and reinforce the learning that begins in the trainings and enhances skills through mentoring and consultation
3. What resources, supports or services need to be in place for students, families and/or staff
Consider the following:
- The resources/services necessary for students, staff and/or families, including linguistically, culturally and clinically appropriate services
- Current collaborations with community providers, including ease of access and responsiveness to determine which ones work well and which need to be reinforced/enhanced
- New services and collaboration that need to be built
- The barriers that currently exist to students' access to appropriate community services that support their school success
Procedures that support the frequent communication required for effective coordination between school-based and community-based behavioral health providers and teachers.
4. What classroom strategies –both academic or nonacademic – support implementation?
Consider the following:
- Academic and non-academic approaches being used in the classrooms
- Opportunities for student skill-building in the classroom and during unstructured parts of the day (e.g. recess, lunch, etc.)
- How to ensure that all educators throughout the building are consistently implementing and reinforcing the classroom approaches necessary to support implementation
- Opportunities for enhancing the curriculum/classroom approaches already in place in the school
5. What policies, procedures or protocols do we need to review, revise and/or develop?
Consider the following:
- A review of all policies, procedures and protocols to determine which need to be adjusted, added or deleted
- A close review and adjustment of policies related to confidential communication within the school and between the school and the family
- A close review and adjustment of policies related to school discipline
- How to ensure that any changes to policies or procedures are adequately and accurately communicated to the entire school community
6. What do we need to do to ensure that families are active partners in helping with implementation?
Consider the following:
- What role families play in the school
- What information to share with families
- How to build on current family engagement efforts, including a review of the need to expand or revise these efforts
- How to ensure that the school is sensitive/responsive to particular cultural issues and needs, language needs, etc.
The intent of using these questions is to ensure that every critical area of school operations is taken into consideration when generating ideas, considering actions and tailoring solutions to fit the school community and the needs of its students. The questions remind everyone that all the school operations are interconnected. They are designed to help identify institutional barriers and strengths that may become relevant as the school works to take action and achieve its goals. These questions can also help steering committees focus on what led to success; important information to have for future efforts.
Guided by the use of the Trauma Sensitive Vision Questions and the Flexible Framework questions, a trauma-sensitive school continually reviews and adjusts its action plan to address priorities. Continual use of this process of change leads to educators engaging in a proactive approach that makes it possible to create a safe and supportive school community.
To read more about the use of the Flexible Framework Questions and to find a helpful example of using the Flexible Framework Questions to analyze selected actions, please see pages 60-65 of Helping Traumatized Children Learn, Vol. 2

Startled by Victor, Nikki hates feeling unsafe in her own home. Victor's on it – no one will get in here uninvited ever again. Regarding the recording of Nick and Victor, Nikki also hates that her fate lies in Sharon's hands.
Sharon drops by Nicks' to apologize – there was no way she could get rid of the recording. Nick's disappointed but understands and appreciates even knowing about it. How long before it gets 'kicked upstairs'? It's done, Sharon reports.
At home, Mia gives Rey a kiss for last night – and another for solving his big case. Rey looks forward to having more time on his hands – nothing will stand in the way of our second chance this time ~kiss~
Having waited until Kyle's gone, Lola's at the house to confide to Abby that they had a BIG fight last night.
Morning handsome – a flirtatious Summer joins Kyle's table at the club as he's looking at a smiling Lola on his phone.
Sharon wishes there was something she could do to help (after giving the DA the only real evidence they have) Nick must now figure out what to do next.
Lola details her fight with Kyle – in the middle of CL's – with Summer having a front row seat. She knows I'm a virgin now. Lola's not ashamed of that but knows Summer won't let it go. Abby points out that Kyle's a big boy – he makes his own decisions. Yeah, well – he decided to stay with Summer after I left.
At the club, Summer tells Kyle what she'd say to Lola if she were him. I'm sorry – it was all my fault.

Trends come and go, but it always remains fashionable. Its secret lies in its ideal proportions: it is perfect like a tuxedo, which makes every man look good, and timeless like the little black dress, which makes every woman look elegant. Tank by Cartier celebrated its 100th anniversary. Yet, its style is still surprising today.
Rolex opened the Baselworld 2017 edition with a series of changes that seem to draw away from the relatively austere tradition of the brand. Is the King ready to abandon the conservative crown to become an assertive innovator? The collection launched this year seems to confirm this hypothesis.


text:
Attracting users is probably the hardest part of the process. You need good graphics and a message that resonates and/or creates an emotional attachment for the prospect in order to entice them to communicate with you and find out more.
What you say is important and just as important is the fact that if you're constantly talking at users about your latest product or service you're likely to turn them off pretty quickly.
What You Have to Say
We'd suggest that you mix your content. For example, we might post a Tweet about our Blog, or link to a specific article that isn't directly selling anything (such as this one for example). Yes, there may well be CTAs down the side of the content or even mixed in with the content but in essence it's not about selling. It's about information provision.
Retweeting other users content is also a method of attracting users. not just those whos content you retweeted but those that read that content also.
Good use of Hashtags is also helpful here. For example you might be looking to promote an article on the benefits of Banana milkshakes for breakfast. Well you might think that #Banana and #Milkshake would be a good combination of hashtags but what about "#HealthyEating" which gets more hashtags per hour than the other two combined.
We use RiteTag a lot for researching Hashtags, combinations of Hashtags and how these might be used.
Using Lists
We can also help by creating very specific lists of users for you to friend (or follow). Around 5-10% of these will follow back if the niche and the message is right. Our lists are also updated daily so there's always a fresh supply of new users to follow.
Our system also allows us to execute very specific searches for users and friend these en bloc (within the Twitter API limits of-course) on your behalf. Again, as the niche is usually aligned with what you do the reciprocation runs at around 5-10%.
Managing These Users
One thing we can also do is manage these users on your behalf. Follow back those that follow you and remove those from your friends list who unfollow automatically.
This leaves you free to work on your content. We suggest an 80/20 split with 80% (or there abouts) being informational tweets or retweets or simply information provision or even something light haerted while the remaining 20% is more sales orientated.
Again, this all depends on the niche, your market and what your goal is.
If we're managing your users for you then that frees up your time to engage with the new followers we've found together through images, tweets and of course direct messaging. We'd urge caution against automatic DMing your new followers as this can simply alienate them from your brand. Do take time to chat with some though and even retweet their content where you find it of value.
Something that's all too often overlooked is Twitter Chats. These are a great source of prospects and a way of helping others find out more about what you do. When we use Twitter Chats we generally gain followers quite easily so I'd recommend this and we'd be more than happy to help you create a strategy for doing this.
Converting those prospects is mainly down to your website (where you're not encouraging prospects to make direct contact that is) and this is another area we can help you with (although it is a little outside the scope of this article) and it's crucial that you can actually convert a prospect when they get through to your website.
The Solution
Many companies pay to outsource their entire social media strategy. I prefer to help deal with the technical while the client manages the rest. The Social Media Management system we have in place can do all of the above and more. However, many of our clients prefer to simply build and maintain an organic Twitter Tribe using one of our SMM packages (compare them here).
How Effective Is It...?
A question we often get asked.
The chart displayed here outlines a 4 week test where the orange line indicates no (or nominal) social media activity on Twitter. The blue line represents a campaign that clearly had an impact on the amount of traffic to the website.
The site in question went from less than 100 impressions a day on Twitter to over 40,000 and the website of-course received a significant increase in the number of visitors.
This is a common thread and it's also a very cost effective and sustainable method of generating significant amounts of traffic to a site. What's more, so long as you continue to put out good quality content our system will continually maintain and grow your followers base for you. Typical gains (where we're a little more aggressive about our following strategy) gain our clients between 500 - 2,000 users a month.
Compare Our Twitter SMM Packages

A 47-year-old man from Kalinga was today served with a Notice to Appear in Court to face charges of forgery following a Crime and Corruption Commission (CCC) investigation into a Ipswich City Council matter.
The man, who was linked to Council, will face three charges of forgery contrary to section 488 of the Criminal Code and is expected to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court on 5 June 2018.
The CCC will allege in Court that the man knowingly submitted fraudulent invoices for payment by the Ipswich City Council, in relation to a profitable community event.
As the CCC's investigation remains ongoing and this matter is now before the court, the CCC is unable to comment further.
The CCC is an independent agency combating major crime and reducing corruption for the benefit of the Queensland community.

Thousands of children in Southwest Little Rock now have access to primary care with the opening of our new clinic at 9015 Dailey Drive. The Southwest Little Rock Community Clinic will serve families in the immediate and surrounding areas. Nestled between nearby walking trails and close to the Pulaski Southwest Health Unit and Southwest Little Rock Community Center, the clinic is an integral part of our statewide network of care that was created to serve the 710,000 children living in the state.
"We do see that there's a need for easier access to pediatric care in the community. There are some great physicians who are already home here in southwest Little Rock," said Marcy Doderer, president and CEO of Arkansas Children's.
"One of the reasons we came to this part of Little Rock is because we know our Hispanic community needs outreach and it's better to be closer to where they live and where they work," Dr. Ochoa said.
"Any kind of service that a child would need, we can provide here. Well child visits, sports physicals, acute illnesses, chronic disease management. We're happy to see anyone."
There will also be bilingual staff members at the clinic to assist patients and families. We look forward to seeing you at the new Southwest Little Rock Community Clinic!
- Bilingual Staff
- 15 exam rooms
- X-ray suite
- Laboratory
- WIC program accommodations
The clinic services children 21 and under and is open Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information or to make an appointment, call 501-364-6560. Same day appointments welcomed.

The composition of the cell walls of land plants allows them to grow upright and gives them a sturdy structure that is essential for living out of water. This is possible thanks to a complex matrix made of cellulose fibrils, proteins and polysaccharides. One of these polysaccharides is called Xyloglucan, and it sticks cellulose fibrils together in a dynamic way. For a while sc...Read More
Partner swapping: a climate change survival strategy
Some species of lichen grow under very different climatic conditions. They are true survival artists. Now new research published in New Phytologist suggests that the secret to their success lies in their willingness to be unfaithful to their algal partners. Lichens are a classic example of symbiosis, in which a species of algae moves in with a fungus and, in exchange for she...Read More
The winding evolutionary path of mannitol production in algae
Algae may not always look exciting, but this extremely diverse group has a lot of secrets. We are only just beginning to piece together the evolutionary history of these organisms, some of which are not even classified as plants. All algae contain plastids that appear to have been derived from an ancient endosymbiosis between a non-photosynthetic host cell and a photosynthetic ...Read More

Fund recipients will be selected exclusively by the Harvard Committee on General Scholarship based on the following criteria established by the Harvard Arab Alumni Association:
The student must have been accepted by Harvard University to a full-time degree program at any of Harvard University's schools, the student must be a resident or national of an Arab country, the student must demonstrate a financial need, as determined by Harvard University's general scholarship criteria, preference will be given to students that have obtained a prior degree (e.g., high school or college) from an educational institution in an Arab country.More Info
On behalf of Harvard University, I thank the HAAA for creating this important scholarship, providing much-needed financial aid to students who will be the future leaders of the Arab world and beyond. Due in large part to the HAAA's efforts, the number of students at Harvard from the Arab world is up to nearly 120, compared to only 49 roughly a decade ago. Harvard is grateful for the partnership of HAAA in achieving the shared goal of enhancing Harvard's engagement with the Arab World both on campus and in the region.JORGE I. DOMÍNGUEZ
Tremendous talent exists in our region. Investing in theeducation of Arab youth and providing them with the tools to create their own opportunitiesis the singular mostimportant investment this region can witness.FADI GHANDOUR
The HAAA Scholarship fund was a game changer for my time at Harvard and beyond. Thanks to its generosity, I was able to focus during the school term on having a truly immersive Harvard experience. The scholarship also funneled my interest in making Harvard a place where Arabs would feel more welcomed and where Arabs would convene to talk about the future of our region. To any Arab student wondering whether Harvard is the right university for you, go for it. You will get out a changed and bettered person - enriched with the awareness, skills and network that make great leaders in the service of othersHALA HANNA

Why I'd Rather Be Stylish Than Fashionable. A Journey Towards Eco-Conscious Style—Caitlin Gemmell.
When I was a teenager, I had a huge walk-in closet jam-packed with random clothing items and yet I felt like I had nothing to wear. Sound familiar? Although my family was already embracing a greener lifestyle by eating organic food and using eco-friendly cleaning products, we were far from being conscious consumers.
It wasn't until my early twenties when I moved to a forward thinking college town in the Northeastern USA that I really examined my lifestyle and decided to CHOOSE a better way.
Fast forward ten(ish) years and I've learned a lot about eco-friendly slow fashion, zero waste living, and have refined my style so it suits ME rather than what the conventional world thinks a "mompreneur" should look like.
I've been on this journey for many years now, but I still have a long way to go. It was only earlier last year that I swapped my recycled plastic toothbrush for a bamboo one after all. 🙊
Here are some tips for finding your signature style and making healthy, responsible fashion choices. I'm also sharing some of my favorite slow fashion brands (not sponsored, just ones I personally love).
•Step one: find your style! When I was younger I tended to like a hodgepodge of different styles. My closest was a mess! Nothing went with anything else. It's only been the past few years that I've really refined my style and discovered what works for me. I recommend using Pinterest to start tracking the styles you like. When you start noticing a pattern make note of the key words used to describe those similar styles that keep cropping up on your style board. I noticed I like certain colors, textures, fabrics, asymmetrical cuts. I've learned that my style is mostly a blend of ethereal faerie with earthy eco-chic and British countryside. See if you can come up with some keywords for your style.
•Don't buy ANY new clothes for three months. I know this seems difficult, but it will help you to notice what clothes you wear again and again. At the end of the three months donate all of the items you didn't wear (keep items you didn't wear but might need at some point —wedding guest dresses as an example. Only keep one or two of these every once in awhile items).
•Now that you have only items you love in your closet, make a list of what you need to fill it in. Try to stick to a cohesive color palette to make life simpler.
•Try to buy what you need from secondhand stores, or through clothing swaps to reduce waste. If you must buy new items try purchasing from slow fashion/eco fashion brands. If you buy out of season you can usually find things on sale.
Here are a list of some of my favorite brands.
Easy Living Hats. Olivia's eco-friendly handmade hats are some of my wardrobe staples. I have one in dusty blue and one in poppy red. These hats last for years and years and are so stylish! Choose well-made, stylish items over poorly made trendy items always!
Easy Living Hats can be found on Instagram
Another slow fashion advocate I admire is Haley of Atonement Design. I have partnered with Haley in the past, but this post is in no way sponsored. Her work is really amazing and I highly recommend her jewelry. I have my eye on one of her dresses for summertime. A percentage of proceeds are donated to help stop human trafficking. Fashion with a cause? Yes please!
Atonement Design is also on Instagram
Another eco-clothing company I admire is Christy Dawn. They make small batches of dresses using deadstock—the discarded leftover fabric from fashion houses.
Hands down, the best shoe company I've found is Nisolo. They are sustainably made, elegant, chic, earthy, and made to last.
I LIVED in a Gaia Conceptions skirt for years, until it began to fall apart. I absolutely love the earthy elegance of Gaia Conceptions designs, the eco-friendly hemp fabric, and low impact dyes.
I'll share some more favorites in my next newsletter. In the meantime, do you have any tips you'd like to share for living a sustainable lifestyle? Share your #enchantedsimplicity posts on Instagram.

By now, there probably is not a person in the United States that does not understand the benefits of wearing a seat belt. However, people still choose to ignore the benefits and the law, choosing not to use this all-important safety feature. After a recent Campbell County, Virginia, car accident, one person is dead and three others are injured. Not one of the people involved in this crash was wearing a safety restraint.
According to police officers, the collision took place at about 3:10 p.m., where Route 501 intersects with Route 680. Reportedly, a person operating a 1987 Dodge Dakota ran through a stop sign and into the path of a Ford pickup truck. The male driver of the Ford truck was unable to avoid colliding with the Dodge.
As a result, the two vehicles crashed, ejecting the driver of the Dodge and a passenger from the vehicle. One of the ejected occupants died of the injuries she suffered. The driver of the Dodge suffered life-threatening injuries and is receiving treatment at a hospital. A third occupant of the Dodge was also seriously injured and is undergoing treatment at a Lynchburg hospital. The male driver of the Ford pickup was the sole occupant. He suffered nonlife-threatening injuries in the car accident, receiving treatment at Lynchburg General Hospital.
Unlike in other car accidents, it seems pretty clear that the person driving the Dodge is responsible for the crash. While the fatality and the other severe injuries are tragic, the Ford motorist may be able to seek compensation for his harm with the help of an injury lawyer. It is unclear at this time whether the Ford driver's lack of a seat belt would play a significant role in any attempts he makes to acquire compensation, but attorney guidance is critical in helping him protect his rights.

Q. I heard that the IRS is hiring 16,500 agents just to make sure we buy insurance?
A. The Internal Revenue Service has not yet determined how many employees it will need to carry out its new responsibilities under the health reform law, an IRS spokeswoman said. But most of their work will be helping people, not hunting them down.
The agency has to make sure everyone eligible gets tax credits to help them purchase health insurance. "A substantial portion of IRS' administrative expenses" will go toward this work, she said, which includes educating individuals and businesses about available tax incentives and how to claim them, answering taxpayers' questions, and improving the agency's technology and infrastructure capacity to handle the job.
One thing the IRS will not do: contact individuals about their health insurance.
IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman told a congressional committee in March that "we expect to get a simple form, that we won't look behind, that says this person has acceptable health coverage." The form—sent by an insurance company—will verify that the taxpayer has health coverage. It will be similar to the 1099 interest form a bank completes.
Susan Jaffe of Washington, D.C., covers health and aging issues and writes the Bulletin's weekly column, Health Care Reform Explained: Your Questions Answered.

Subscribe to our newsletter to receive the latest news and events from TWI:
TWI is pleased to announce the creation of the London South Bank Innovation Centre - a pioneering initiative to bridge the gap between academia and industry, and a new platform for Industrial Member research.
Located in TWI's newly constructed world-class facilities just outside Cambridge, the London South Bank Innovation Centre (LSBIC) will be at the vanguard of the development of robotic and automated non-destructive testing (NDT) methods.
Technologies developed at LSBIC will directly benefit TWI Industrial Members, who will be able to adopt new innovations as they are developed. There are potential applications for automated and robotic NDT technologies across a wide swathe of industry - wherever there is a demand for more effective, less costly inspection, and particularly where manually deployed NDT techniques are hazardous or impractical.
The model for LSBIC is based on that of the highly successful Brunel Innovation Centre, a partnership between TWI and Brunel University London specialising in research into guided-wave ultrasonics, which earned £27 million of research grants in its first five years.
The establishment of the new innovation centre represents the beginning of a long-term strategic partnership that will, in its first five years of operation, provide a home for the work of 14 researchers and support eight TWI-funded PhD degrees. Developments will be led by industry, with the needs of TWI's Industrial Members determining the direction of research.
Leading LSBIC will be Professor Tariq Sattar, who will oversee projects that build on the work he has been conducting as head of London South Bank University's Mechatronics, Robotics and Non-Destructive Testing Research (MRNDT) team. Prof Sattar and his team have received a number of plaudits for their previous work, and over the past 16 years have been awarded research income totalling more than ?2 million from collaboration with TWI.
Among the award-winning robots developed by MRNDT are wall-climbing and amphibious prototypes for a diverse range of applications. These include the in-service inspection of walls and floors of oil and petrochemical tanks; the inspection of nozzle welds on the internal walls of nuclear pressure vessels; the inspection of wind turbine blades; and the fabrication of large infrastructure with welding, cleaning and NDT wall-climbing robots.
In 2013 the UK government identified 'robotics and autonomous systems' as one of eight great technologies in which the UK has the potential to become a world leader. The research conducted at LSBIC, and cascaded to TWI Industrial Members, will contribute to the realisation of this ambition.
Professor Tat-Hean Gan, Associate Director of TWI, said: 'I am delighted that London South Bank University has entered into this agreement with TWI to establish the London South Bank Innovation Centre. The collaboration will strengthen TWI's technical expertise in automated inspection, especially for harsh and complex environment applications.
'I hope the new centre will become a financially self-sustaining centre of excellence in its field within two years of its formation. It will accommodate an increase in the number of PhDs relating to automated non-destructive testing - an area of research of crucial importance for the future, when I believe there will be a clear need for robotic non-destructive testing engineers.'
Combining the excellence in research of a university that has won seven awards for industrial innovation for its work in this area, with a global organisation with ties to more than 700 companies around the world, LSBIC unites some of the brightest minds in academia with one of the world's leading research and technology organisations.

As per the World Bank," In Universal Banking, large banks operate extensive network of branches, provide many different services, hold several claims on firms (including equity and debt) and participate directly in the Corporate Governance of firms that rely on the banks for funding or as insurance underwriters."UNIVERSAL BANKING: UNIVERSAL BANKING Presented by Denish VekariyaSlide 3: It includes not only services related to savings and loans but also investment. However in practice the term 'Universal Banking' refers to those banks that offer wide range of financial services beyond the commercial banking functions like Mutual Funds, Merchant Banking, Factoring, Insurance, Credit Cards, Retail loans, Housing Finance, Auto Loans, etc . A Universal Banking is a superstore for financial products, under one roof. Corporates can get loans and avail of other handy services, while individuals can bank and borrow.Empirical background of Universal Banking: Empirical background of Universal Banking Since the early 1990s, structural changes of profound magnitude came to be witnessed in global banking systems. Large scale mergers, amalgamations and acquisitions among the banks and financial institutions resulted in the growth in size and competitive strengths of the merged entities . The issue of universal banking resurfaced in Year 2000, when ICICI gave a presentation to RBI to discuss the time frame and possible options for transforming itself into an universal bank.Advantages of Universal Banking: Advantages of Universal Banking Economies Of Scale - greater economic efficiency in the form of lower cost, higher output and better products. - A bank can reduce average costs and thereby improve spreads if it expands its scale of operations and diversifying activities . Profitable Diversions - By diversifying the activities , the bank can use its existing expertise in one type of financial service in providing other types - one entity instead of separate bodies.Slide 6: Resource Utilization - A data collection about the market trends, risk and returns associated with portfolios of Mutual Funds, diversifiable and non diversifiable risk analysis , etc are useful for other clients and information seekers. Easy marketing on the foundation a of Brand name - a bank can reach the remotest client without having to take recourse to an agent because it has an existing network of branches. One stop shopping - saves a lot of transaction costs and increases the speed of economic activities.Slide 7: Investor friendly activities - A bank's equity holding in a borrower firm, acts as a signal for other investors on to the health of the firm , since the lending bank is in a better position to monitor the firm's activities.Products in Universal Banking: Products in Universal Banking Accounts.

| 13.8°C Dublin
Former US president Bill Clinton gave us some hope last Thursday at UCD when he told the audience to have faith: "I believe you'll get out of this, but not fast, that's what I tell politicians making tough decisions. Tell people the truth, do what has to be done. People have to believe you'll pay your bills, and then say how we will get out of this," he said.
I was full of hope until I saw our former Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern, who got us into this horrific mess, hiding in a cupboard in an advert for the 'News of the World'.
Two former heads of state poles apart.
Would you believe the politician in the cupboard?

The Killer
The Killer is a convicted murderer who was in a maximum security unit within a psychiatric hospital. The Killer was a high earning investment banker who was convicted of multiple killings and diagnosed as a psychopath during his trial. The virus has not only wiped the Killer's memory of his crimes, but altered his personality drastically. In the aftermath of the meteor strike, The Killer emerges into the carnage within the hospital aware that much of his memory is missing but quickly decides that he must have been a doctor.
The Killer sets out to help find survivors and do his utmost to save humanity by using his "expertise", but it remains to be seen whether the damage to his brain has truly cured him, and whether even a truly changed person can be forgiven by the survivors who remember his crimes.

Initiatives - Annual Report 2014
The need to allocate and manage limited resources more efficiently and effectively has generated initiatives in the area of staffing, technology, management, and service.
Updating Work Measurement Staffing Formulas
This is a Judiciary cost-containment initiative.
The Judiciary continues its efforts to apply a rigorous work measurement process to the development of equitable staffing formulas. In September 2014, the Judicial Conference approved a group of updated staffing formulas for bankruptcy administrators, bankruptcy appellate panel clerks, circuit executives, circuit librarians, circuit mediators, courts of appeals clerks, and staff attorneys. The recommended formulas resulted from analysis of work data collected from 100 percent of the subject offices. More than 96 percent of the employees contributed several weeks of data to help ensure a comprehensive decision set for analysis and option development.
Development of similar staffing formulas, using even more detailed data collection techniques, will be completed for federal defender offices and probation and pretrial services offices. These two studies will address more than 13,000 staffing requirements defined by current staffing allocation processes. The Judicial Conference Committee on Judicial Resources expects to receive formula options for these functions in June 2015.
To prepare for the implementation of new staffing formulas, the AO distributed staffing projection tools for use by each of these offices to calculate anticipated staffing resources for FY 2015.
Increasing the eJuror Online Response Rate
This is a Judiciary cost-containment initiative.
In six districts, a prospective juror now receives a letter from the court directing them to the court's website to complete the juror qualification questionnaire using eJuror, instead of filling out a paper questionnaire. Any juror who does not complete the questionnaire online within a specified time frame after the initial mailing is promptly mailed a paper questionnaire. More districts are expected to adopt this approach in the coming year.
When the District of New Hampshire instituted the practice, the court reported that approximately 60 to 80 percent of all jurors responded to the court's eJuror mailing by completing the questionnaire online. By contrast, when courts mail the paper questionnaires with the option of completing the questionnaire online, the national average eJuror "hit rate" is just 25 to 30 percent.
Increased eJuror use means courts save postage, as well as staff time that would have been spent processing paper questionnaires. Most notably, because eJuror requires every question to be answered prior to submission, courts receive only fully completed questionnaires, providing a more accurate snapshot of the diversity of its jury wheel.
The national eJuror Program gives potential jurors the option of responding to their jury qualification questionnaire or summons online. Currently, 72 districts use eJurors.
Introducing an Orientation Manual for Federal Court Interpreters
The Federal Court Interpreter Orientation Manual and Glossary (pdf), published in FY 2014, provides an overview of the federal court interpreting program for new and experienced court interpreters. The manual is an introduction to the federal court system, interpreting best practices and reference materials. It also demonstrates the importance of court interpreters in the administration of justice and serves as a court interpreting reference for clerk's office staff.
Court Interpreting Events
In fiscal year 2014, district courts used interpreters in 287,579 court events, compared to 330,607 events reported in FY 2013. Overall, 116 different languages were used in court events during 2014. Spanish remains the most used language for interpreters in the courts, accounting for 96.4 percent of all reported events in FY 2014. The top 10 languages that required interpreting in the federal courts in FY 2014 were Spanish (277,343); Mandarin (1,489); Russian (991); Portuguese (669); Korean (614); Arabic (604); Punjabi (413); Vietnamese (405); Cantonese (387); and Haitian Creole (384).
Expanding the Telephone Interpreting Program
This is a Judiciary cost-containment initiative.
The Telephone Interpreting Program (TIP) is a resource available to the courts to provide remote interpretation in short court proceedings where certified or otherwise qualified interpreters are not locally available. In FY 2014, 52 districts in 101 locations received telephone interpreting services. TIP is cost-effective because it reduces the need for an interpreter to travel to distant court locations and allows an interpreter to serve multiple proceedings and locations in the same day. In FY 2014, the total estimated savings from telephone interpreting was more than $1.7 million.
Ensuring Access, Reducing Library Costs
This is a Judiciary cost-containment initiative.
In March 2014, at the request of the Judicial Conference, each circuit judicial council, in consultation with its circuit librarians, library committees, and relevant judges, reviewed its continuing need for each library. The goal was to reduce library costs where possible, while ensuring access to necessary legal research resources.
Each circuit identified space that could be reduced, returned, or repurposed. Seven satellite libraries, library spaces, and/or large shared library collections were earmarked for closure. Four are now closed and a fifth is scheduled to close in 2015. Additional possible future closures have been identified, and reductions proposed in more than 40 libraries. At the same time, the circuit judicial councils identified a strong need to keep library professionals on staff to assist judges, law clerks, and other court staff in meeting their mission-critical functions and to strike the correct balance between supporting the courts' research needs and meeting the challenges of a constricted budget.
Revising Records Retention Policies
This is a Judiciary cost-containment initiative.
As part of the Judiciary's effort to update its records retention policies, a revised retention schedule for district court criminal case records was approved in FY 2014 by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). This important change recognizes the historic long-term value of cases involving the death penalty and such crimes as treason, national security, embezzlement, or bribery by public officials. The revised schedule also takes into account a sentence's length and extends the retention period for post-1969 non-trial criminal cases with open sentences, which, since the early 1980s, had been assigned a temporary records retention period of 20 years. In addition, a new records retention policy addresses federal records within federal public defender organizations.
Long-term storage of paper files is costly. Record schedules for civil, bankruptcy, and appellate files already have been reappraised. Since the project began in 2010, it has saved the Judiciary $1.29 million in reduced storage fees. Without the reappraisal program, storage costs would have reached $8.2 million by 2014.
Expanding the National Phone System
This is a Judiciary cost-containment initiative.
As of July 2014, nearly 30,000 phones (including the AO's) have been added to the national phone system, which now handles an average of approximately 990,000 inbound and 1.2 million outbound calls per month. As a result, telephone service and equipment expenditures by local courts have significantly decreased since initial deployment, a trend that is expected to continue.
Consolidating Judiciary Email Servers
This is a Judiciary cost-containment initiative.
The centralization of all the Judiciary's primary email servers was completed in March 2014. This initiative resulted in avoidance of certain cyclical hardware replacement and implementation costs, and will permanently relieve local courts of hardware maintenance responsibilities.
Migrating Appeals Data to NewSTATS
The New Streamline Timely Access to Statistics (NewSTATS) project is a multi-year effort to replace the Judiciary's legacy system for collecting, processing, and reporting court caseload statistics. In 2014, appellate data were added to NewSTATS, making it the system of record for all appellate data, MJSTAR (Magistrate Judge Statistics Through Automated Records) data, Civil Justice Reform Act (CJRA) data, district court criminal and civil case data, and bankruptcy case and adversary proceeding data. The migration of district court trial statistics to NewSTATS is underway. The remaining data sets—bankruptcy appellate program, bankruptcy court trials, and grand and petit jury—are all scheduled for migration to NewSTATS in FY 2015. A parallel effort has been initiated to expand the Judiciary's Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) framework to include NewSTATS. EDW is a robust business intelligence platform that will be used to integrate information from across the Judiciary's national financial transaction and case processing systems.
Recruiting for Diversity
The Diversity Recruiting and Outreach Program involves 33 districts encompassing all circuits, and has reached more than 8,000 diverse student candidates through 88 career fairs and legal recruiting events. This program supports a goal in the Strategic Plan for the Federal Judiciary to strengthen workforce diversity through expansion of diversity program recruitment, education, and training. The program develops relationships with colleges, universities, and external organizations, including Just the Beginning – A Pipeline Organization, Congressional Caucuses (Black, Asian, and Hispanic), Council on Legal Education Opportunity, Minority Corporate Counsel Association, National Association for Legal Career Professionals, and the American Bar Association. Judges have strongly supported this effort through the Summer Judicial Internship Program, a partnership between JTB-APO and the Judicial Conference Committee on Judicial Resources, which placed 88 minority law students with 67 federal judges this summer.
OSCAR Changes
With the elimination of the Federal Law Clerk Hiring Plan, the AO implemented several key changes to the Online System for Clerkship Application and Review (OSCAR), the Judiciary's centralized system for law clerk and staff attorney recruitment. These changes support the new list of Federal Law Clerk Hiring Best Practices to expand applicant access and promote greater transparency in the law clerk hiring process.
Rising second-year law school students gained read-only access to OSCAR on June 1 to research positions and full system access on August 1 to submit on-line applications. The major policy change allows applicants to update their documents on finalized applications to report new grades, class rank updates, awards, recommendations, and other information. In addition, judges now identify their preferred interview methods (telephone or video conference, no preference, etc.) and the minimum number of semesters of law school grades they require for a law clerk application.
Involving Court Staff in National Initiatives
2014 Director's Leadership Program
David Sime, clerk of court for the District of Utah Bankruptcy Court, and Luke Adams, a senior programmer analyst in the Eastern District of Virginia Bankruptcy Court, participated in the 2014 Director's Leadership Program. The program brings highly qualified senior and mid-level court and federal public defender organization staff to the AO for up to one year to perform critical work on national initiatives and high-priority projects.
Sime will bring a court perspective to a high-profile, national project focusing on the identification and sponsorship of innovative data analysis capabilities for the courts.
Adams will support development and implementation of a Judiciary Enterprise Architecture (EA). The EA business model will help establish common information technology patterns for stakeholders across the Judiciary and a strategy to achieve measurable outcomes. The Judiciary EA is expected to leverage business and technical expertise, reduce costs by promoting reuse, and reduce data duplication.
Court/AO Exchange Programs
In fiscal year 2014, 64 court, defender organization, and AO staff participated in the Temporary Duty (TDY) and Extended Collaborative Assignments Program, working on projects outside their regular work responsibilities. TDY participants worked on-site or remotely with 11 AO offices, and represented chambers and non-chambers staff in appellate, district, and bankruptcy court operations, probation and pretrial services offices, and federal defender and community organizations. TDY program assignments range from six months to one year with options to extend the assignment in some cases. In 2014, some of the TDY assignments included work on NextGen CM/ECF, collaboration with the FBI on computer forensics in the supervision of defendants and offenders, space planning, privacy policies, and the representation at a Prisoner Transfer Hearing of an American citizen incarcerated abroad.
Knowledge Seminars
Knowledge Seminars are held throughout the year for staff to learn about key Judiciary programs. The seminars involve a panel of subject-matter experts presenting the program's core functions, the AO's role in supporting the program, and the perspective from the courts and defender organizations. In fiscal year 2014, Knowledge Seminars took a look at national jurisdiction courts, went behind the scenes of a criminal case, and presented a day in the life of a federal public defender and Criminal Justice Act panel attorney.
Planning for Natural and Man-Made Disasters
The federal Judiciary plans and prepares so that the business of the courts may continue in the face of natural or man-made disasters. In 2014, a webcast for court staff on emergency preparedness exercise design offered a step-by-step presentation on how to create tabletop exercises. Emergency planning experts from the Western District of Washington, the Central District of California Bankruptcy Court, and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals shared their expertise.
Another Judiciary-wide webcast offered step-by-step instructions on best practices for utilizing the Judiciary's Emergency Notification System (ENS), which provides alerts during a major crisis or emergency. The District of New Jersey shared its firsthand experience using ENS during Hurricane Sandy.
Streamlining the AO
The AO has completed its internal restructuring to make programs and services more effective while reducing operating costs. Announced in June 2013, the reorganization was designed to enhance service to the courts, eliminate redundancies, and simplify the agency's structure. For instance, by co-locating development of all court program applications in a single office and all administrative systems in another, overall costs will be reduced and a more consistent architecture for Judiciary applications will be created. Similarly, consolidating support for all judge programs in one office and support for all court programs in another has created administrative, communication, and service efficiencies.
