And, they're off! This week IE Brown Executive MBA Class of 2019 reconvenes in Cape Town, South Africa. As part of IE Brown's regular curriculum, this immersion experience allows students to combine – in a real-world setting – frameworks learned in traditional business and entrepreneurship courses with their understanding of the importance of historical, economic, cultural, social and political contexts.
South Africa is a nation with first world infrastructure and postcolonial inequality, and a history of the most racialized system of social exclusion devised by human beings. It has undergone the extraordinary transformation from white majority to black majority rule but continues to face challenges of undoing centuries of racial and colonial subjugation.
This country's richness in dichotomies makes it fertile ground for testing one's capacity to design powerful new business models that advance industry and society.
Working in teams, the IE Brown Class of 2019 is charged with ideating new potential business solutions for Cape Town townships.
For nearly all IE Brown students, townships are worlds away from their standard operating environment. Venturing beyond their professional comfort zone, IE Brown teams discover that innovation comes from the creative process of rigorously applying different lenses to complex problem-solving.
This deeper understanding uncovers the faces, dreams, and aspirations of the individuals that make up markets. It adds nuance to data, an edge to business strategies, and a sense of responsibility to the lives of those our decisions impact.
The reward for this hard work: radical new business ideas with potential far beyond the townships. To find out how this process produces new ideas for today's complex markets, read a case study about the IE Brown 2018 South Africa Data Team's experience: A New Community Data Model for Townships and the Digital World.
In an era of mounting digital privacy scandals, data rights is as much an issue for the residents of townships in Cape Town, as it is for individuals operating in digital realms who lack control over the collection of their data – who it's being sold to, for what purpose, and in whose interest. By asking the hard questions, our team's data stokvel idea sheds light on opportunities far beyond the townships demonstrating the power of critical and interdisciplinary thinking to uncover innovative business solutions for meaningful change.
Interested in finding your new edge? Join IE Brown on the vanguard of business thinking.

While XH558 remains a hot topic on the forums, the Vulcan still remains a firm favourite amongst many members. Jonathan Hughes captured XL426 from the Vulcan Restoration Trust at Southend at a Timeline Events shoot with a fine selection of atmospheric images after dark.

The Lynx has featured heavily over the last few weeks and Kevin Wills captured this Super Lynx of the Brazilian Navy at Yeovil recently, one of a fleet of eight to be upgraded to Mk21B standard at the Leonardo Helicopters factory.

UKAR favourite Andrzej Rogucki provided us with yet another selection of stunning images, this time looking back to MAKS 2017. With a combination of careful editing, slow shutter speeds and a lot of thought and creativity you know it's going to be a cracking set! As well as all the Russian favourites, UAE aerobatic team Al Fursan also made a colourful appearance shown here.

Looking back again to 2017 and we have another stunning set of images of the annual Frisian Flag exercise but this time in stark contrast to the MAKS set, a selection showcasing the best of Western hardware including these German AF Typhoons.

Another exercise and this time, the first Red Flag of 2018. Trevor Carpenter captured an interesting mix of USAF, RAF and RAAF airframes under sublime blues skies at Nellis AFB, a unique location with surrounding mountainous terrain providing some fantastic backdrops.

Returning to the UK and Brian Marshall provided an update on goings-on at Duxford this month where he captured this ex-US Army DHC-2 Beaver, taking its first flights after being shipped to the UK from the US in 2015 and being subsequently restored to flight.

The updates for RAF Cosford Airshow 2018 continue to arrive with a number of airframes already confirmed for their static line up. Peter Reoch gave us a taste of things to come with a shot of the much-anticipated Phantom XV582 'Black Mike' which will undoubtedly be a favourite this year.

Week 7, February 2018
Clockwise from top left:
The RAF isn't the only air arm marking a centenary this year, and to document theirs the Polish Air Force commissioned the photographic talents of the much-admired Bartosz Bera. Throughout 2017, Bartosz planned and conducted in the region of thirty photographic flights with almost every asset in the PLAF across a wide variety of scenarios. The handful of teaser images he has released so far, including this exquisite F-16, are every bit as good as you would expect and we look forward to more as they are officially released throughout the course of this anniversary year.

A Timeline Events photoshoot on the operational ramp at RAF Odiham allowed Kelvin the opportunity to capture this trio of Chinooks at rest, set against the rich colours of a winter sundown.

Threshold.aero also hosted photographers for a photoshoot at Spanhoe this week, concentrating their efforts on ex-military types used in airborne spotting and observation roles. The highlight of the evening was probably the engine run from the Reid and Sigrist R.S.4 Bobsleigh, which should be flying again this summer after a period of restoration.
Image © Nick Jennings
Wearing a colour scheme every bit as distinctive and recognisable as the sound it makes, this Bell 212 of the Army Air Corps was seen by Sam Whitfield operating on the Salisbury Plain Training Area last Wednesday.
Image © Sam Whitfield
Sure to be one of the rarest visitors of the year to these shores, this Erickson Air-Crane has been operating in Scotland since the start of the year, assisting with the construction of electricity pylons. Nicknamed "Goliath", Callum was fortunate to view it on a couple of occasions during it's brief visit, both hard at work hauling pylons and again arriving at the port of Montrose for onward transport back to the United States on Monday.
Image © Calum Linnen
This is another rare one! Visiting Biggin Hill this week on a medical flight was this Brazilian-registered Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI) Westwind. An unusual looking aircraft, it's certainly got a retro feel to its aesthetics.
Image © Westleigh Bushell
'BigClick67' continues to share his wealth of archive images on the forums, and this week's instalment focussed on Tornados from the type's various European operators. Pictured here, wearing rather fetching desert sand camouflage, is an Italian example from 36°Stormo, captured at Gilze-Rijen during a TLP exercise in 1995.

Pictures Of The Week
Week 6, February 2018
Clockwise from top left:
Philippe Rey enjoyed absolutely ideal conditions last summer for a visit to document the EH-101 Merlins of the Portuguese Air Force. Sat atop the cliffs and set against deep blue skies and waters, the stunning four-tone camouflage that adorns these machines makes for a vibrant and visually stimulating photograph to open this week's rotor-heavy selection.
Image © Philippe Rey
Contrast Philippe's fortunes with Peter's, as his recent visit to RAF Shawbury to spend time with the Griffin and Squirrel HT1s of the Defence Helicopter Flying School was marred by slightly less favourable weather. Regardless, his perseverance in the face of a downpour has resulted in a very atmospheric image.
Image © Peter Reoch
This Norwegian-registered Sikorsky S-92A is seen at the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Arriving from the Ekofisk complex in the North Sea with a casualty on-board, Callum was on-hand to photograph the departure once the patient had been handed over to the Ambulance Service.
Image © Calum Linnen
The recently retired Lynx AH.9As have featured twice in recent weeks, and Mark Russell was ready and waiting for them as the last seven in service made their final flights. Ferried into Middle Wallop, it marked an end to the "battlefield' Lynx's varied service career, where it was used by the Royal Marines and Fleet Air Arm in addition to the Army Air Corps.
Image © Mark Russell
Yet another aircraft rapidly approaching the end of it's time in service with the British Armed Forces is the iconic Tornado. The entire fleet now resides at RAF Marham, but that sadly consists of only just over 30 airframes in total, with that number reducing week by week. Rumours abound that they may not even see out this summer, so catch them while you can.
Image © Dave Jones
The Radom airshow last summer certainly produced some memorable sights for those in attandance, as Don's thread amply illustrates. Contained within are images of a low arrival from Ukrainian trio of An-26 and Su-27 pair, a Romanian MiG-21 flying display and perhaps best of all, this six-ship flypast of beautiful Su-22 Fitters. The new grey camo has certainly proliferated though, as five of the six are 'dressed' in the drab new clothes.
Image © Don Cashen
One of many smaller collections of airframes dotted around the country is the South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum, visited by Nick Jennings a few years ago. This rather fetchingly painted Whirlwind HAR1 was built in 1954 and served with the Royal Navy. It was powered by a Pratt & Whitney Wasp rather than the Bristol Siddeley Gnome fitted to later variants.

Makeup may help you to look more stunning and attractive but only when you know the right way. But if you do not know how to do makeup properly then it destroys your good looks fully. It happens with everyone. Sometimes when we do makeup we apply eyeliner wrong, forget to do lip lining, use too much concealer, don't blend eye makeup or anything that makes us horrible. Besides this, sometimes we make our self-looks much older than our age due to mistakes that we made during doing makeup.
Well, today I am here to tell you about that mistake due to which we suffer from all these bad conditions. Read it and try to ignore the worst mistake and improve your makeup skills.
Store makeup on wrong place
Most of you are a habit to store makeup products in-store or in the room temperature which is not a good thing and it is your one of the big mistake. Not all but many beauty products contain natural oils and waxes. In summer they start destroying because of temperature. In summer temperature is high and products start melting that contains waxes especially lipsticks, creams, nail polish.
Try to store makeup product in the fridge at least in summer or in hot weather for their long life. Makeup products work more efficiently and perfectly when you store them in a cool place. A lot of products is also tested to hold up at room temperature but not all products. When these products are cold they will help seal up your pores and feel that much more amazing then it's hot.
Plucking eyebrows improperly
The shape of your eyebrows is really mattered. If the shape of your eyebrows is very thin and curvy, you look elder and clever. Normally, many of you make your eyebrows very thin when you going to pluck one stray may lead you to the next until the eyebrows are reduced to two thin lines. After that, the only thing you can do is waiting. Wait until they grow back again completely.
During this time if you want to go anywhere then you can use an eyebrow pencil. Try to choose a correct color because filling in your brows make a huge difference in your face shape, frame your eyes and it gathers the whole look together. If your eyebrows are already thin, then you can also use the pencil to make it thick according to your face cut and shape.
Matching foundation on the back of your hand
Selecting foundation according to your face color is the bit tricky. Many women don't even get the foundation that matches with their skin or they don't recognize which is good for them. You usually match foundation on the back of our hand which is not right. Because there is a huge difference between your hand and face skin type and color. Match foundation color on your neck and outside of your cheeks because you want the foundation for your face and neck not for your hands.
Try to go with one or two-tone darker than your face. In Asia, women like to put the foundation in lighter tune because they think they look fair in it. But when you use lighter tone your skin become grey after some time. Choose a darker tone foundation. Select three or four tones and take a drop from each foundation on your neck or cheeks. Compare each spot and pick the one that disappears on your skin.
Apply too much foundation
Basic concept which you listen for many years that applying the thick layer of foundation on your face is helping you to cover fine lines, acne, uneven tone and many other problems. It is true up to some extent but there is a disadvantage which is if you apply too much foundation on your face you look way older than your age. Apply foundation in small quantity.
There is no need to apply layers of foundation on your face. The thing which is needed is to blend it perfectly. If you do not blend it well, it will look like you wear a mask and the lines which you want to hide become more prominent. The blending is also essential because if you do not blend it well cracks start showing on your foundation layer which seems worse. For blending take proper brushes and make sure to replace old brushes and wedges regularly.
Use eyelashes curler after mascara
Eyelashes curler is a tool through which you can beautify your lashes. It provides beautiful curls to your lashes. The proper way to use lashes curler is before applying mascara. If you want to get perfect curls, then go at the base of the lashes to create perfect curls. If you use after applying mascara, it ruins everything. If you want to use it after mascara, then first wait few minutes until mascara gets dry. Check with the fingertip, if mascara gets dry then use lashes curler.
Use dark lipsticks
Try to select and apply lipstick wisely. If you use dark colors, it makes your lips look thinner than they are and also you appear older. If you use dull color, it dulls your overall look which looks boring. Lipstick color may destroy your appearance if the colors you wear are not in fashion. You can go with lip-glosses to produce the most natural, youthful and fresh look possible. Also never use the dark lip liner because dark lip color won't stray beyond the boundaries so lip liner is unnecessary.
If you want that your lipstick stays long on your lips so don't apply on your naked lips. Before applying lip color dab your lips with primer or Vaseline. Let it soak for a while, in this time you complete your routine makeup. After 5 to 7 minutes, apply lipstick. When you do this, your lipstick stays long and looks much more smooth and even.
Sleep with makeup
The worst mistake which you can do with your face is not too off your makeup and wash your face before going to bed for sleep. Don't look at the clock, no worry if clock show you 3 am. Always take a time to remove your makeup. If you don't do this, you must wake up with panda eyes and joker looks. Makeup blocks your pores and doesn't let them remove dead skin cells which causes irritation.
After washing your face with water dry your face with the towel. Take a few drops of cleanser and rub on your face slowly, in the circular motion. It helps to remove makeup particles from your pores and open your pores to let your skin breath finely.

5 Easy Marketing Tips to Start the Year Off Strong
Brush off the confetti and stash the party hats, it's time to get busy pursuing this year's marketing goals. For many companies, there's no better resolution than trying something new. If it's no- or low-cost, like these ideas from Forbes online, then so much the better.
Tip #1: Check out the competition. If a particular strategy or tactic seems to be effective, consider making it your own. Does their website work harder or look better? What about their signage or marketing materials?
Tip #2: Gather testimonials you've been putting off. Call, email or ask customers directly to leave reviews on social media or dedicated review sites. Be sure to add testimonials to your website. New visitors put great stock in what others say, so missing testimonials means lost opportunities.
Tip #3: Update your social media. Fine-tune your posting strategy and refresh profiles and photos. Surely you have something to say, so put pen to paper and knock out a dozen new posts. Another option? Take a familiar topic and put your spin on it for a fresh and interesting take. It will feel great and do wonders for your confidence.
Tip #4: Get some facetime. Difficult? Sure. But no marketing move on the planet replaces authentic in-person conversations with customers and prospects. Go a step further and expand your event strategy. Host an interest group, put on a free workshop, speak at local meetings. Any of these will deepen community connections and garner invaluable exposure.
Tip #5: Cultivate media connections. The media needs content. You need ink. But instead of just bugging reporters for coverage, offer yourself as an expert for other stories. Relationship building will go a long way.

"Mon cherie, you can achieve everything if you try."
- Claudette to her daughter Zelda Pelletier.
Claudette Pelletier nee de Saint-Moreau, born Indumuhk, (1736-unknown) was an Assassin during the French and Indian War but retired prior the American Revolution. The daughter of a Frenchnoble man and a Kanien'kehá:ka woman, Claudette married a fellow Assassin named Caleb Pelletier and went on to have four children; Zelda, Vivienne, Camille and Louie, who died in infancy.
About ClaudetteEdit
Born in 1736, Indumuhk was the child of Andre de Saint-Moreau and Abha. Raised in the village of Kanatahséton, Indumuhk stayed in the village until she was six when after her mother died under mysterious circumstances, her father came and collected her and took her to live on his plantation in Louisiana. She was showered with attention and love by her father, much to Gerald's, her half-brother, jealously. Rechristened Claudette, she grew up to intelligent young woman who oozed sophiscation and elegance, becoming popular in the social scene of New Orleans .
Her father encouraged her to think for herself and debate on topics such as slavery and the treatment of different ethicities. This was a lesson Claudette would teach her own children. Unbeknownst to her, Claudette's father was a member of the Assassin Order and was traning her to become his protege along with his son Gerald. However Gerald did not agree with his father's aims and joined the Templars and moving back to his native France. It was only when she was fifteen did Andre reveal her Assassin lineage and luckily for him she embraced it, becoming adpat in poisons.
In 1754 aged eighteen, Claudette met and fell in love with a French-Canadian fur trapper named Caleb Pelletier, four years her senior. Caleb was also an Assassin, wanting revenge against the Templars for the murder of his family in 1750. Their happiness was cut short when Claudette's father was murdered by a sect of Templars. Claudette seething, desired revenge.
The pair travelled around the country and killed any Templars they'd come across. On their travels they encountered Claudette's childhood friend Kaniehtí:io who was in the company of a man named Haytham Kenway. Knowing Kenway to be a Templar, Caleb was hostile and aggressive towards the man to the point he nearly killed him but managed to be swayed by Claudette. Leaving the pair on their quest against Edward Braddock, Caleb and Claudette continued their purge of Templars until 1756 when they decided to stop and settle down.
Marrying just prior the Seven Years War, the pair settled down in a small community near Claudette's native home. After a few months of marriage, Claudette discovered she was with child. Nine months later she gave birth to a son, named Louis-Andre Pelletier. Sadly, the baby died a few months after he was born and it sent Claudette into a deep depression. Circumstances didn't help her morale either; Caleb had been ordered by the Creed to assist the Britsh against the French, something Claudette felt strongly about since her French father was a strong patriot.
It was only in 1759 that Claudette felt happiness again, giving birth to a daughter named Zelda. After the war ended, she and Caleb went on to have two more daughters, Vivenne in 1764 and Camille in 1767.
They raised their daughters in the ways of the Assassin but gave them a choice to continue training past their twelve birthday, only Zelda decided to continue training.
"She is beautiful; inside and out."
- Caleb about Claudette.
Claudette was sweet and uncomplicated wand was blessed with a generosity of spirit and good nature. Extremely maternal. she treated everyone as if they were her own child. However in the name of protecting her family she could be ruthless, poisoning a a group of Redcoats who came to her home for food. Well-mannered and polite.
Physical DescriptionEdit
Claudette oozed beauty and elegance; statuesque and captivating with raven coloured hair and dark, soulful brown eyes.

The evidences of his resurrection, we mentioned and illustrated in the former discourse.
From the 44th verse, we have our Saviour's discourse to his disciples, before his ascension; in which, he explains to them, from the prophecies of the Old Testament, the necessity of his own death and resurrection. Like an assectionate parent, who is to leave his children on the world, he gives them suitable instructions concerning the design of their mission, andthe doctrine they were to publish; and comforts them with the promise of the Spirit, to supply the wants of his bodily presence, to qualify them for their important work, and.enable them to deliver their mesfage with credit and success. In this manner, as this .evangekst expresses it, " lie showed him"self alive to them aster his passion, by many in"fallible prooss j being seen of them forty days, and "speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom "of God (a)."
One great object of our Saviour's mission was, to wean the affections of men from the things of this world, and to six their attention onithe happiness of a suture and eternal state, which he died to j.- .ure. Our Saviour, during his whole ministry, in, proportion as'the prejudices of his disciples could bear it, was instructing them in the spiritual nature of his kingdom. But the period was now arrived, in which their minds would receive the most complete conviction of this important fact. His submission to death, his resurrection from the grave, and his a?scension into heaven, were a combination of circumstances, plainly calculated to show them, that his kingdom was not of this world; and that, whither he was going, there, in due time, they would be alfo. To this evidence, during the fortv days he continued on earth, he added particular instructions concerning the things that pertain to the kingdom of God. And when the time of his being glorisied was at hand, "he led them out as far as to "Bethany, and he lift up his hands and blessed C 3 J* them..
(*) Acts i. 3.
"them. And it came to pass, while he blessed "them, he was parted from them, and carried up "into heaven."
In discoursing from these words, we propose, First, To illustrate the circumstances of our Lord's ascension, mentioned in the text. Secondiy, We shall point out to you some of the ends ?.?id purposes for which he ascended. And, Lastly, Direct you to a suitable improvement.
I. We propose to illustrate the circumstances of our Lord's ascension, mentioned in the text. And,
i. We may attend to the place whence he ascended. It was from the neighbourhood of Bethany; I say, from the neighbourhood of Bethany, because it appears, that the particular place whence he ascended, was the samous Mount Olivet, on. the skirt of which the village of Bethany stood. Thus we read in the Acts of the Apostles (a), that immediately after his ascension, the disciples returned to Jerusalem from the Mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a Sabbath-day's journey. This. was the place whither our Saviour was accustomed to retire for meditation and prayer. In such situations, there is a solitude which ministers to devotion, and helps to elevate the mind to the contemplation of divine things. And probably, in this Mount Olivet, there was a convenient place for retirement from the world, where our Saviour had spent many delightsul hours m communion with his Father. There, also, or near to it, probably at the foot of it, was the garden of Gethsemane, a place which he often frequented; where, a little before, he began his paflion with an agony; where he was apprehended, and from whence he was led away to Jerusalem to be crucisied. And, perhaps, he was pleased to honour this place.with his ascension from it, to give his disciples a sensible demonstration of this great truth, that sufferings here, lead die way to glory hereafter; or, as the
(*) Actsi. xa.
apostle expresses it, that "through much tribulation "we enter into the kingdom of God."
2. To the witnesses of his ascension. His eleven apostles, and probably, also, his other disciples about Jerusalem, to the number of one hundred and twenty, were witnesses of this sact. Thus, we are told, (a) that when they were assembled together, and Christ among them, aster his resurrection, and when he had given them in charge what he would have them to do, as they beheld, he was taken up; and in verse ioth it is said, they looked stedsastly toward heaven, as he went up. Hence he ascended in the view of his disciples, and while their eyes were attentively sixed on him. And this is as sull and convincing a proof of the reality of our Lord's ascension
-as we. could reasonably desire. The same- persons who were witnesses of his resurrection, were also witnesses of his ascension: And their testimony is deserving of the highest credit, from the circumstances mentioned in the former discourse, which, it were improper here to repeat *.
3. We may attend to the work in which he was employed when he ascended :—It was in blessing his disciples. He lift up hands, and blessed them; and it came to pass, that while he blessed them, he was pa;ted from them.
The listing up of the hands was a ceremony used among the Jews in blessing the people. We are informed in one of the books of Moses {b), that Aaron, the high priest, lift up his hand towards the people, and blessed them. In like manner our Saviour, being now to leave this-world, lifted up his hands in a solemn and devout manner, and blessed his disciples. This was the last action he performed on earth; an action prompted by love to them, and such as became him, who is the Prince ps peace, and whose design in coming into the world was to seek and to save them that were lost. When his auspicious birth was proclaimed
(a) Acts i. 9. * See Sermon on the Resurrection, p. 6,—9ft J Let. ix. 4 a.
claimed to the shepherds, it was attended with praise to God, and with peace and good-will to men. His •whole lise was employed in acts of benevolence and love. When he died, he breathed out his foul ia forgiveness to hig enemies. And now, aster his resurrection from the dead, when he was just leaving the world, he^ ascended to heaven with a blessing in his mouth; for it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven. The words which he employed on this occasion, are not recorded by the Evangelist; but they were doubtless very powersul and affecting, attended with that divine energy which would give the disciples a sense and seeling os the blessedness he pronounced on them. And, O what warm emotions of love and gratitude would then spring up in their hearts! With what exceeding delight and rapture would they be silled! When the two disciples reflected on the conversation they had with Christ going to .Em'maus, they cried out, Did not ous hearts- bura within us, while he.talked to us by the way, and opened to us the scriptures? Much more would the hearts of his disciples glow with holy affection, and exult with joy, while their Lord was pronouncing his parting blessing. Accordingly we sind, in the verse following the text, "that they worshipped "him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy."
A. We may attend to the manner of his ascension —he was carried up. To the same purpose, we are informed, in the Acts of the Apostles, that while his disciples beheld, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight (a). Not that our Saviour was merely passive, or stood in need of any assistance to accomplish his ascension; for nothing is more evident, than that he ascended, as he rose from the dead, by his own power. But the expression is probably designed to intimate, that though our Lord's ascension was his own voluntary act, yet,- for the greater solemnity, he was attended by angels as he
(a) Acts I 9.
went up into heaven. This, indeed, is hinted at in the two following verses of the same chapter: "And "while they looked stedsastly toward heaven, as he "went up, behold two men," that is, angels in the appearance of men, " stood by them in white ap"parel; which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why "stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, "which is taken from you into heaven, shall so "come, in like manner as ye have seen him go into "heaven." Hence the manner of his ascension was honourable and glorious. He returned to heaven as a triumphant conqueror, having obtained the most signal victoay over all his own enemies, and those of his people. He made the cloud his chariot, and angels attended, to grace the triumph, and celebrate the Conqueror. And, O with what transports of joy* and songs of gladness, would they attend him in his glorious passage!" God is gone up with a shout; "the Lord with the sound of a trumpet. Sing "praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our "King, sing praises (c)." And when he was arrived at his Father's court above, how would the whole city of God be moved at his coming? and with what joysul acclamations would he be welcomed home, again to take possession os the glory which he had with the Father before the World was?
Lastly, 'We may attend to the place whither he ascended;—He was carried up to heaven. The apostles saw him ascend gradually from the earth, till a cloud received him out of their sight and two angels came and told them he was gone into heaven. He is elsewhere said to have ascended up sar above al} heavens (d); meaning, I suppose, that part of the heavens,. which is at present visibleto the inhabitants of this earth. Hence, the place whither our Lord ascended, was to the third heavens, the throne of God, and mansions of the blessed; to that place where he is now sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, and where all his redeemed shall be for eves

Much is being written currently about employee engagement. It is an issue that rightly deserves the focus of employers, but what should their role be?
Topics: employee onboarding, training, company culture, employee engagement, social media
While some aspects of culture are organic in nature, there are best practices that businesses can engage in to help build and sustain a great culture. The problem for far too many organizations is one of neglect or complacency. In other words, there is no intentional effort to shape or foster a culture.
Topics: training, workforce management, benefits, company culture, employee engagement
Topics: recruiting and hiring, hiring trends, new hire, hr management trends, training, millennials
Even with the increased efforts at awareness harassment has not appeared to decrease significantly in the American workplace. Whether the current statistics simply reflect this heightened awareness or an actual increase in incidents, the numbers are large.
And the recent events involving entertainment and political figures accused of harassment and assault has brought the issue to the forefront of public scrutiny.
Every year, the professionals and experts weigh in on what they see as coming or anticiapted trends for the Human Resource profession. Last year saw some of the same trends forecasted and the realities of both the HR industry and business in general reflect these.

There is a lot of info we could throw at you at once, but that wouldn't be very helpful. Rather than giving you an overwhelming list of info you might forget, here are the top things you need to know before you go to Animal Kingdom. Be sure to check this page often for new updates!
Jump to:
GuruTips Attractions Bathrooms Eateries Shopping
- Flight of Passage/Pandora: Flight of Passage is by far the most popular attraction at Walt Disney World right now – and it deserves to be! If you do not have a FastPass for this ride, we highly suggest lining up before the park opens and heading straight for the ride at park opening to cut down on your wait time.
- Take Your Time: There is a lot to see in this park and so many animals to observe and encounter. If you have an entire day to spend here, then take your time and explore. You'll get to really enjoy just taking in the surroundings and feel one with nature!
- Walking Shoes: This park is spread out and involves A LOT of walking. The layout is also not as neatly planned as the Magic Kingdom (hub with spokes out to each land). Be prepared to do a lot of walking and wear some comfortable shoes.
- A Fall/Spring Park: It's no secret that Orlando is hot. Orlando doesn't cool down until maybe the middle of October and then it starts the insanity again around April. This park generally does not have a ton of shade, so we suggest if possible to visit this park during the cooler months so the visit will be more enjoyable and less sweaty.
- Expedition Everest: Possibly the best Disney coaster. If you are a thrill-seeker, this is a must-do. For even more of a thrill, ride in the back row!
- Flight of Passage: The best ride at Walt Disney World. It's a thrill for the senses and a must-do when you are visiting. You remain stationary while you are immersed into the 3-D world of Pandora, so don't worry if you're afraid of heights – you can still experience this ride. We highly suggest having a FastPass for this ride, if possible.
- Kali River Rapids: As we mentioned above, this park can be super hot on hot days. If you are roaming the park on one of those scorchers, you can't pass this one up for some relief. However, even on a nice day in October this ride will give you a thrill while also soaking you.
- Festival of the Lion King: Located in the new Harambe Theater, we highly suggest seeing this show. The music is amazing and the visuals are spectacular. The familiar Lion King characters that we love are there, along with a stellar cast of singers, dancers, and acrobats! Shows typically start each hour.
- Kilimanjaro Safari: A great way to get closer to the animals! This attraction gives you the opportunity to ride in an open-air vehicle to experience the animals up close and in their surroundings. This is a popular attraction, so set up FastPass+ beforehand or head straight to the attraction at opening. No safari is the same, so this is one to experience each time you visit Animal Kingdom!
- Chester & Hester's: This bathroom is located in DinoLand USA, close to Primeval Whirl. We like this one because it's very large and is able to handle the crowds well.
- Theater in the Wild: This one is right outside the theater housing Finding Nemo – The Musical. This one is great because it is off main walkways which means less usage. It does get busy right after a show lets out, but if you hit this one while a show is going on, you should be golden.
- Expedition Everest: While this one is located next to a popular ride, the bathrooms are typically large enough to handle the traffic. It's a great spot to hit right before getting on Everest or right after you get off the ride.
- Harambe Market: A great area to get quick service meals! You can get a variety of African dishes, including Karubi Ribs, Chicken Skewers, and Sausage. This area just opened, so go check it out!
- Tusker House: A great Character Dining restaurant! The detailed Disney put into decorating this restaurant is amazing. You could spend a lot of time just checking out the neat stuff on the walls and around the building.
- Yak & Yeti Restaurant: With a Pan-Asian menu and a great setting, this restaurant is definitely worth checking out. It's located in Asia, so it's in a nice spot to ride Everest a few times in the morning and then head over for lunch. Advance Dining Reservations (ADR) are suggested.
- Chester & Hester's Dinosaur Treasures: We're just going to put this out there – we love dinosaurs. So, naturally this shop would be at the top of our list. Not only can you shop for dino merch, you can pose with dinos! Go there. Do this.
- Mombasa Marketplace: Located in Africa, you can find authentic African imports such as wine, art, crafts, etc. Very neat shop to explore and find something unique.
- The Dino Institute Shop: Again, we warned you about the Dino thing. But, Dinos! This shop is pretty neat anyway, so go check it out.

I hope you know that I care, truly
Yes, I do
I only want to be there when you need a friend
A shoulder you can lean on
I sometimes want to wrap my arms around you
Make you feel comforted
I hope you know
I truly care for you
Prose, Poetry, and Knick Knacks (formerly One Poem A Day)
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. – Edgar Allan Poe
I hope you know that I care, truly
Yes, I do
I only want to be there when you need a friend
A shoulder you can lean on
I sometimes want to wrap my arms around you
Make you feel comforted
I hope you know
I truly care for you
I wished on a falling star
To keep my distance and his not too far
I wished he'd notice me
Despite the many fish in the sea
I wished he'd know
What I feel is true
But all of this is just a wish
Because I am just a friend of his
And if he were to do something at a whim
He wouldn't choose me over him
I don't have the sunshine in my hands
I can't make the rain stop
I'm no superhero
But I will help you get through whatever it is you're going through
I'm here for you
Friend oh friend you are indeed
The one that's true until the end
Our friendship started like a mere seed
And now…it has since grown
I scoop the sunset
Keep it in my back pocket
I collect the smiles
And hide them away
The memories are locked away
Ready for the rainy day
One last look
One last glance
One last time
Before our temporary goodbye
Bitter-sweet is this day
I spend my last day at work with all of you
He doesn't know
I love him so
He'll never see
What he means to me
For I am just another friend
Who'll be there for him until the end
Don't mix love and friendship
You are not good at it
Stay on course amd let things be
Instead of controlling what you can't
He asked if I'm alright
And I say I am
He looks at me funny
Cause he knows I am not
Deep inside I think he knows
But for the love of friendship he keeps it to himself
You came into my life when I needed to lean on someone
Helped me in ways I never thought of
Truly I am grateful to have you
I am in love with the thought of you and I as friends
We need not be romantic
And I need not any other reason
A chapter is filled and so we must start a new one
It is never easy to part with friends
But I know we will forever be bounded by the mutual love we have for each other
because anything is possible with Charisma
the literary asylum
What has to happen will happen...

The Scope 2 RGB LED watch is a beautiful piece of nerd time-keeping—fantastically future-retro, there's no goddamn way you can tell what time it is from a glance, thanks to its Rube Goldbergian way of signifying the march of seconds, minutes and hours. Depending on the model, green or red horizontal lines relay hours, while a contrasting color targeting box surrounds the current five-minute interval. And then you've got individual minutes as dot clusters off to the side and down below. By the time you figure out what time it is, it won't be that time anymore. Here's how this craziness works:.
But I still really want one—actually the fact that I couldn't tell time with it is half the appeal, and $200 is cheap for this much awesome. [Technabob]

With the teen plans (13-18) it is reinforced with the teen, as the responsibility reverses as they have more control over food and drinks they choose.

After pushing the Windows 10 upgrade on Windows 7/8.1 users in a number of somewhat controversial ways last year, Microsoft is turning up the heat another notch by making its new OS a 'recommended update' under Windows Update.
It comes as no surprise, as Redmond announced its intention to do this several months ago. The company said it would happen early in 2016, and it turns out that February is the month for the switch to be flicked.
As ZDNet reports, Microsoft made the following statement letting folks know that Windows 10 has become a recommended update: "As we shared in late October on the Windows Blog, we are committed to making it easy for our Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 customers to upgrade to Windows 10. We updated the upgrade experience today to help our customers, who previously reserved their upgrade, schedule a time for their upgrade to take place."
Automatic antics
If, like ourselves, you've got Windows Update set up to allow you to choose whether to install updates, then you'll see the upgrade but won't have it applied – although those who have selected 'install updates automatically' could see Windows 10 being installed on their machines without them taking any action. Be warned.
That said, Microsoft has said that even if the installation begins automatically, users will be able to cancel out of the process, and indeed they'll have a month to roll back if they still accidentally make the move and decide they really don't like Windows 10.
Microsoft's previous dubious tactics in pushing Windows 10 include tweaking the upgrade prompt that pops up on the desktop so folks are more likely to click to upgrade, messing with third-party software that blocks said prompt, and even spreading fear and loathing concerning Windows 7.
None of this seems to have dented adoption of the new OS, though, and the latest figures show a strong surge of users moving to Windows 10.

At the beginning of June, the children of Arajamugh village in Hadrut region of Artsakh were unimaginably excited. The reason spoke for itself, the opening of a new and modern football field. This kind of facilities are not common in Artsakh, and mainly the kids of Stepanakert and Shushi area have access to multi-branched sports platforms. It was indeed a special day for Arajamugh. However, there is a unique and bittersweet story behind this. The field bears Maral Melkonian-Avetisian's name: a wonderful person who dedicated herself to the development of Armenia and Artsakh until the last moment of her life.
Ara and Haykuhi Melkonians, Maral's parents, are the donors of the football pitch, and this was an act of great love towards their daughter, whose biggest dream was making Artsakh a great place for its people. Here we will tell a little more about how Maral's commitment keeps living until now and how a tragedy can transform into something marvelous, granting joy and smiles to the future generations.
"Our daughter loved Armenia and Artsakh so much. She was even convincing her husband to move to Armenia. Maral was truly connected to this place, thinking about it all the time, even after volunteering for seven years", - says Mrs. Haykuhi Melkonian.
As Mr. Ara Melkonian tells, the main priority was doing a project in a frontier village, close to the borderline. These territories are of high importance, and the people there should have a high quality of life. Unfortunately, the majority of such villages in both Armenia and Artsakh lack infrastructure and necessary facilities. The decision fell on Arajamugh after some discussions with "Artsakh Fund" Eastern USA representatives, as well as Tufenkian Foundation's development director, Antranig Kasbarian.
The main fears the Melkonians had regarding the location were the escalation of military conflict and the border tensions. However, the whole scene changed after they saw the people of Arajamugh unexpectedly gathered near the field to greet the donors and thank them. They are very impressed with what they saw in Arajamugh, and they could not imagine that this gift can change so many lives and have a strategic impact on the further development of the community. The idea of building a similar place was born years ago; however, after the family tragedy, when Maral passed away, they decided to make a significant step towards the fulfillment of her dream. And this is not the end as the family plans to build a separate restroom and a locker room for the field. Also, they plan to add a lighting system and trees around the pitch, making it more beautiful and comfortable for the children. It will inevitably perpetuate the memory of Maral, and every child walking into this field will remember the great Armenian who was dedicated to her motherland. Mr. Ara and Mrs. Haykuhi will continue their philanthropist activities in Artsakh's Arajamugh village, and they are sure that Maral would have done the same. This way, a tragedy can transform into a new beginning and Maral, even after passing away, still keeps the warmth of her love upon the usual people of Armenia and Artsakh.
Arajamugh, a village created by Tufenkian foundation in 2004, is still welcoming resettlers and new families. After the establishment and construction of vital infrastructures Tufenkian Foundation has passed the expansion plan of the village to "Artsakh Fund". Tufenkian Foundation still works for the development and resettlement of the liberated regions of Artsakh Republic.
