Jamaica wants UNESCO designations for other music forms
Entertainment minister Olivia 'Babsy' Grange says her ministry will be applying to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) for World Heritage designations and inscriptions of other genres of music.
UNESCO, the world body's cultural and scientific agency, last year added reggae to its collection of "intangible cultural heritage" deemed worthy of protection and promotion.
"We intend to nominate the different genres. There are different categories for which they can be nominated," she said.
Jamaica has created no fewer than seven genres of music, the most current being dancehall.
The minister said that kumina, a Jamaican ritual brought to the island in the 1840s to 1860s by indentured labourers of Congo in Africa, will be submitted to UNESCO.
"For kumina, there is a possible threat of it disappearing because it is not passed on sufficiently from one generation to the next, so we will be sending that in; also revival and mento, which was our first pop music," Grange said.'
Meanwhile, the minister said "UNESCO monitors wherever an inscription is successfully inscribed, and you have to report regularly.
"They monitor what we do, and for reggae, they will be monitoring and we have to keep an inventory of how we are developing the music. We have to have some kind of report in terms of how stakeholders are involved. There are commitments which we have to fulfil for any inscription by UNESCO," the minister said.
Grange said that a nomination document has been submitted for the inscription of Port Royal on the World Heritage List.
Port Royal, a town located at the end of the Palisadoes strip in Kingston and former home to pirates during the 17th century, has been on UNESCO's World Heritage Tentative List since February 2009. She said the ministry should receive a response in July.

Product Lifecycle Management (PLM System)
For Product Engineering and Product Management
The number of products that include a combination of software and electronics is rapidly growing and the requirements placed on flexibility, agility and variant management are therefore continuously increasing. These are the main factors that drive digital engineering and product management, from product engineering all the way to operations, making advanced and forward thinking Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) a must.
The evolution of PLM in the enterprise
Today, PLM is an integrated discipline that covers the entire product lifecycle and is embedded across the enterprise, from requirements management to the processing of IoT data. It needs to take into account the information provided by the mechatronics disciplines, every step on the way. These product related pieces of information come together to describe the product as a digital information twin, which in turn is used to create the digital twin. Digital threads are established, enabling effective impact and change analysis across the product lifecycle. The digital thread feeds back information from the field to the product engineering processes.
The digital information twin
A lifecycle file that is populated with new information throughout the product lifecycle and contains product data and documents that mirror the technical structure of a product, plant or technical infrastructure is a digital information twin. It brings the information stored in the Product Data Backbone into a common context, creating an accurate picture of a piece of machinery or plant.
A digital information twin provides the basis for the digital twin – at any point in the lifecycle from rough design to production, commissioning and operational monitoring. So, before anyone would even consider the virtual commissioning of a product, the underlying data in the PLM system must be complete and consistent.
IoT data that comes back from the field constitutes vital information from which companies can draw conclusions for their product engineering and product management. This data contributes directly to a continuous improvement process (change management), transforming the product lifecycle into a closed loop PLM process.
PLM platforms such as PRO.FILE are ideally suited to establish these types of digital information twins, which, in turn are the key to digital concepts all the way through to virtual commissioning.
The digital thread:
benefits and implementation
How will an urgent service call impact changes to a critical part?
Once all the information created throughout the project engineering and product management process becomes available digitally in the Product Data Backbone of a PLM system, the relationships and dependencies within PLM processes, that used to only exist in the heads of relevant employees, are now visible and clearly traceable through the system. This allows companies to draw product engineering conclusions and perform impact analyses for predictive maintenance purposes and to fine tune them to the version at hand. This is what's called the digital thread.
The PRO.FILE digitalization platform enables your vision to engage in Digital Product Lifecycle Management
PRO.FILE: The hub for digital collaboration in product engineering and product management
PRO.FILE serves as a Product Data Backbone and collaboration platform, along the product engineering process and across the entire product lifecycle. By combining it with the collaborative PLM platform PROOM, you can go beyond the in house departments and disciplines involved and seamlessly integrate your external partners, suppliers, and customers, giving you full control over your PLM processes.
Customer reference: 2G Energy AG
With PRO.FILE, 2G Energy now has a PLM solution that allows it to document even its most complex products and to control its technical and business workflows, including a number of Industry 4.0 applications. The flood of digital documents and the need to control them as part of their daily routines used to cause the employees at 2G Energy AG major headaches. Today, the company is a model for interdepartmental collaboration based on PRO.FILE.
We used to have paper-based assembly reports and stacks of copies circulate around the company. Now, the PRO.FILE project dashboard allows us to instantly track the status of any report in any service region and to immediately retrieve the information our customers are looking for.

I wish to castigate the police departments for not enforcing the law enacted in July 2015 to reduce road rage. Statute 316.081 designates drivers should not travel in the left lane of traffic unless they are passing cars in the right lane. This is not just for the interstates.

The InPower's Notice of Liability, also known as the Notice of Liability (NoL) process, is a mass-action of people protecting their rights and enforcing the individual liability of those who are causing or facilitating harm. It is a powerful lawful remedy that utilizes foundational laws and rules of commerce to turn the tables on the individuals who have been hiding behind corporations and governments as they inflict for-profit harm upon men, women and children.
The NoL is a comprehensive multi-round process, based upon sending a series of Notices — pre-written templates customized for each participant — which establish a framework for contractually-enforceable individual liability.
Over the past several years, we've seen other traditional legal approaches, complaints and appeals fail to achieve success thus far, as there appears to be an enormous level of systemic corruption and collusion involved. And, those causing the harm are simply ignoring complaints. In contrast, the NoL process enables participants to access and reclaim their full unalienable rights, and uses the corporate system's own rules against them to enforce corporate and individual liability.
For example, in the case of "smart" meters, utilities are essentially changing the terms of their service contracts with each customer, without full disclosure of facts. They are also using "implied consent" to assume a customer agrees — even if the customer says they do not but uses an "incorrect" method of communication. Our Notice of Liability recognizes that a utility's desire to install a "smart" meter is a contractual offer, for which, in a written Notice, we conditionally accept if they can disprove our affidavit (a document we verify as true), point-by-point, with an affidavit of their own. If they cannot do so, our affidavit and terms stand, and each Respondent* is individually subject to the terms of our conditional acceptance.
These terms include a fee schedule of a dollar amount of your choosing (as you have the power to create terms), per day that they would be in violation of your terms. These amounts are binding, and subsequent document templates and plans for enforcement are in place. Respondents are unable to disprove the statements made in the NoL or the facts used in the affidavit because our facts are true and verifiable, whereas the propaganda they use is not.
The NoL process implements Contract Law, Common Law, Commercial Law (Uniform Commercial Code) and Law Merchant. It is multi-faceted and operates in multiple jurisdictions. The NoL is based upon a higher level of understanding of how this system has been created & operates.
* – Respondents are utility executives and government officials who are promoting (or not yet openly opposing) the "smart" meter agenda.

No. Diabetes will not stop it from working.
The medication will possibly elevate your blood sugar slightly. It probably will not require an adjustment of your insulin, but pay particular attention to your testing for a day.

Parashat Vayeshev/Chanukah
Genesis 37:1 – 40:23
The story of Joseph and his brothers begins this week. After Joseph is sold into slavery in Egypt by his jealous brothers, we encounter an episode of sexual harassment. The wife of Joseph's master harasses Joseph and, when Joseph resists, she has him thrown in jail. This is the nightmare story of too many victims of sexual harassment. The powerful try to exercise absolute power over the powerless and, all too often, it is not the perpetrators who are punished, but the victims.
This story does not tell of the usual types of sexual harassment, the overwhelming majority of which are directed by men against women. This is because, overwhelmingly, throughout history, it has been the men who have had the power. A more standard example is offered in our Torah portion in another case, the story of Judah and Tamar. In that story the powerful figure is Judah, father figure of his family, a sub-unit of Jacob's clan. Judah controls the fate of his daughter-in-law, depriving her of her rights to a husband and her hopes for children. But she takes advantage of his weakness when he seeks out a prostitute to sleep with. She masquerades as a harlot and he sleeps with her.
Last week the brothers slaughtered a whole town because they objected to their sister being perceived as a whore. Yet, their vindictive ire was not kindled so as to grant their sister full personhood. Rather, they were outraged that their control over her fate had been usurped by a stranger. Not having learned their lesson, it was sadly inevitable that, in this story, it is Judah who is guilty of perceiving his own daughter-in-law as a whore! When Tamar's pregnancy becomes apparent Judah wants to put her to death for infidelity. But she proves to him that he, himself, is the villain who had assumed that he could have his way with any woman. To his credit, he announces, "She is more righteous than I." (Gen. 38:26. And see further discussion of this story in Torah Sparks for 2010.)
Our Torah portion does not make it explicit, but, by following the unfolding of later Biblical events, we discover that Tamar's initiative, exploiting Judah's blundering attempt at exploitation and turning it inside-out, constitutes a crucial step toward the Messianic Era. Her son, Peretz, becomes the ancestor of King David, the ancestor of the Messiah. That is to say, it was necessary to transgress against the patriarchal system in order to make the Messiah a real possibility.
We are finally hearing more and more formerly powerless people – mostly, but not only, women – overcoming their fears and their silence. As they recover their voices all of us would do well to recognize that, if we wish to become more righteous than we were yesterday, we are required to hear their outrage and their pain and their claims to full human dignity,. To take such a step would bring us a giant step closer to messianic redemption.
Shabbat Shalom and Happy Chanukah!

Me, an idiot
Good morning Inland Revenue how may I help you?
Yes, hi, good morning, I want to ask about these two additional assessment demand notes I received...
Yes. May I have your ID card number please.... Yes.... And your name please? Okay...... I see. Please give me a moment to look at your file.
Miss, these are additional assessment for your request for relating back your gratuity payment from the last year to this year.
Last year, that would be 2004 to 2005?
Yes, that is the last financial year.
Well, I don't understand it, there must be some mistake.
Did you or did you not apply for additional assessment on you gratuity payment you received in 2004/05?
....er.... I think I did fill in a box.... something about gratuity...
Well that's fine then, we have fulfilled your request.
Well…. But you see, when I ticked that box, I thought what it meant was that because that money was gratuity payment, so it is not a regular part of my salary, and so….. you should not include it in the calculation of my provisional tax this year, right? So how come instead of a smaller tax bill, I'm getting two EXTRA ones?
Let me check. One moment please.
....(idiots… bloody thieves).....
The demand notes we sent you are correct, the gratuity payment has not been considered towards your provisional tax of this year, miss.
But... but... but how come I have to pay another two extra tax bills? Shouldn't I be paying less?
Miss, according to my records, you ARE paying less. One extra bill is for 2003/04, and the other is for 2004/05, since your contract gratuity, according to the form you filled in, covers your employment for those two years.
How could that be.....???
Do you know what "relating back of your gratuity payment to this year" means, miss?
...er..... actually, no...not really.... I thought it means I pay less tax....
Yes, you are right, and you ARE paying less, miss.
..... (Dear God please help me, help me get out of this).....well...I don't understand... how could this be.....
(slight pause) Miss, let me explain. Firstly, like I said, you are paying less provisional tax. Secondly, separate calculation of your gratuity payments means it is less likely you will hve to pay the standard tax rate of 16%. So you are paying less. You can compare the tax you pay now and what you would have been paying if you have to pay the standard rate. You will see that this is lower than the standard rate.
Oh.... Yes.. sure...I understand now (actually, I don't really). Thank you for your time.... Thanks.
You are welcome. Good bye.

When you think of things to do in Portugal, you don't always think of castles. Portugal instead tends to conjure up images of utterly beautiful beaches, dramatic jagged coastlines, delicious little pastries, intricately designed tiles and even architecture unlike anywhere else in Europe but never really this whole idea of beautiful castles in Portugal. (Places like the UK tend to get the credit for that instead.) 😁
That would be a mistake though. Portugal literally has hundreds of beautiful castles dotted all over the country. In fact, if you decide to go 'castle hopping' in Portugal, you could be at it for several weeks (or even months) trying to see them all.
To that end, we've put together 19 of the most beautiful castles you need to see when you visit Portugal – a couple of which you might have heard of, many of which will be new to many a traveller's itinerary in Portugal but all of which are absolutely worth visiting!
1.) Pena Palace
Let's start off with the most popular one of them all – Pena Palace. This colourful castle set atop a hill in Sintra is as fairytale looking as they get. From the sound of it, Pena Palace sounds like it is a "palace" but is, in fact, a Romanticist castle – the main difference between palaces and castles being that palaces tend to be predominantly places of residence while castles tend to have a defensive function (Palaces are also signs of wealth and so tend to typically be "newer" than castles).
When you visit Pena Palace (and you can see all about it here), be sure to check out all the other amazing sights in Sintra and if you're unsure what's worth knowing when you visit Sintra, check out our post here.
2.) Castle of Santa Maria da Feira
This castle is one of those places that just leaves an indelible impression on your once you see it! It's arguably one of the best-preserved castles in Portugal and with the relatively close proximity to the beautiful cities of Porto and Aveiro is worth coinciding a visit with a trip to one of those cities.
3.)The Castle of the Moors
Also based in Sintra, this hilltop castle is actually one of the best views of Pena Palace and of Sintra as a whole. The Castle so impressive, it's one of the top UNESCO World Heritage sites to see in Portugal. The Castle is just a short walk from Sintra's Pena Palace and so a visit to one should ideally be tied into a visit with the other.
Check out more about visiting the Castle of the Moors (along with A LOT MORE photos, here).
4.) Castle of Montemor-o-Velho
Castle of Montemor-o-Velho is a castle so old, it's older than Portugal is a nation. It's also one of the most impressive places to visit in Portugal due it's long, interesting and sometimes violent history as a battleground between the Christians and Muslims looking to rule Portugal. The sheer size of the castle makes it worth setting aside a fair amount of time to explore and enjoy.
5.) Guimarães Castle
This iconic castle is spot almost 1,000 years ago where the Battle of São Mamede was won by Alfonso, resulting in the independence of Portugal. Alfonso, post-victory, went on to become the first King of the Nation ergo why this Castle is now known as the birthplace of Portugal.
Actually, after that Battle, he became Prince of Portugal and it was only after the Battle of Ourique down South, where he defeated the Moors that he became the unanimous King of Portugal. Anyway, long story short – there's a long and rich history behind this castle making it a fascinating place to visit in Portugal.
6.) Castle of Tomar
The Castle of Tomas was actually built by the Knights Templar and is an important place to visit in Portugal, not just for the Castle itself, but for all the other stunning architectural beauties around it – most popular of which is arguably the Templar-built Covent of Christ.
7.) Castle of Óbidos
This is one of the most impressive castles to visit in Portugal and is set with a beautiful village of Obidos which is perfect for exploring while simultaneously taking in the castle with you. This is easily a place you can spend a fair bit of time in so when you do decide to visit, set aside some time to not only enjoy the castle but the settlement of Obidos as well.
8.) Castle of Abrantes
This castle was one of the key place in the reconquest of Portugal from the Moors and as such is an important historical site to visit in Portugal. This spot in Abrantes has always been of importance to the region and is the reason why there's been an important structure here (including the castle) in some form for thousands of year. Totally worth visiting, even if for the fascinating insight into Portuguese history.
9.) Castle of Almourol
Set on the banks of the Tagus River, the picturesque castle is best seen from the opposite side of the river and even better so at sunset. The Castle is part of the reconquest castles of Portugal and is heavily influenced by the Knights Templar who rebuilt it after its destruction almost a thousand years ago.
10.) Sao Jorge Castle
This castle is hard to miss when you visit the capital city of Lisbon! Sitting atop a hill, with fortifications dating back over 2,000 years, the castle served as the ancient seat of power in Portugal for over 400 years and is now one of the top spots to visit when you're in the city. Check out more photos from the Castle in our post here.
11.) Castle of Evoramonte
This Gothic Castle has been home to everyone from the Romans to the Moors over the course of time and is particularly iconic as the spot where a peace treaty was signed, ending the civil war in Portugal (in 1834).

12.) Castle of Aljezur
This medieval castle is more ruins than it is a full castle with the multitude of grand rooms worth exploring but the view from up here of Aljezur, the beautiful green countryside and the surrounding villages makes this absolutely worth a visit.
13.) Castle of Bragança
This medieval castle, located in the middle of an equally medieval town is the perfect place to spend an afternoon – or perhaps even a whole day! The medieval town is reason in itself to visit this beautiful part of Portugal and the Castle just adds to the appeal of Bragança.
14.) Castle of Esporão
This is one of the smaller castles to visit in Portugal -in fact, it's more of a tower than a castle but it's absolutely worth popping into, even if briefly as its a unique symbol or Portugal's progression from the Middle Ages to the Modern age and looks nothing like any of the other beautiful castles.
15.) Castle of Marvão
The village of Marvao is one the gorgeous little places to visit in Portugal with a history spanning several millennia and a castle that is just the perfect icing on the cake! The Castle is a brilliantly preserved Medieval castle with a beautiful garden to match and that obligatory stunning view of the village of Marvao from the castle.
16.) Sabugal Castle
On the border with Spain lies Sabugal Castle – one of the lesser visited of the many beautiful castles in Portugal but one that is definitely worth visiting. This castle was the negotiations grounds for the borders years ago (although the layout of Europe looked very different back then).

17.) Castle of Mós
This beautiful castle is one of the lesser known Portuguese Castles and has gone through several periods of changes having being reconstructed after being destroyed in several earthquakes. This, compounded with the occupancy of the castle by different ruling parties, have led to the castle having a rather unique look and feel over time.
18.) Castle of Leiria
This Medieval castle is located in one of Portugal's less popular yet absolutely beautiful cities called, you guessed it, Leiria.
The Castle here actually once served as the home to the King and Queen of Portugal and with its prime position overlooking the city is a spot absolutely worth checking out when you visit.
19.) Castle of Penedono
This Medieval castle is set within an equally picturesque medieval Parish and although you'd probably struggle to find much else to do around here when you visit, the Castle alone is reason itself to visit Penedono.
Honourable Mention: Monserrate Palace
Monserrate Palace is one of the less-known sights to see in Sintra but is one of the most impressive. This intricately designed villa used to be the summer home of the Portuguese court and is set amidst an expansive and rather impressive park. It would actually be included with the above if it weren't for the fact it's actually a palace and not a castle.
See more photos from Monserrate Palace – along with details about visiting it here.

Though we guess he would have been a passable Morph?
Jackson was so eager to play the role that he tried to buy Marvel. He figured if he owned the company, who could say no? As if anyone in their right mind would say no to a squealing, dancing Professor X leading a team of ten-year-olds and a chimpanzee, which almost certainly would have been his first and final idea. The point is, Michael Jackson's X-Men would have been so transcendent that every time Professor X rose from his wheelchair to circle slide, so too would each handicapped person watching.
20th Century Fox
"Breaking news: Doctors stunned as millions of paraplegics worldwide have regained the ability to moonwalk."
Jackson's deal to buy Marvel obviously never went through, which is a mistake time travelers will hopefully repair, because he wasn't only looking to score the role of a super-persuasive man surrounded by magical children. He was also hoping to play Peter Parker, the Amazing Spider-Man.
It sounds vaguely ridiculous (in the best way), but he wasn't without his supporters. When asked about it, Stan Lee himself said that he thought Jackson would've been a great Spider-Man. How fantastic would that have been? Do you remember that scene in Spider-Man 3 where Tobey Maguire turned evil and delivered into our world cinema's worst dance number?

Season 7 of Game Of Thrones is expected to have major battles of ice and fire, and one YouTuber decided to add a bit of Vanilla to the mix. Swede Mason posted an epic mash-up of the 1990s hip hop track Ice Ice Baby with clips from the hit HBO show and the internet loved it.
"Seriously I think I just broke my computer making this," the clip's creator wrote on Twitter. The link he shared alongside was later removed or as he put it, "blue-shelled", but copies of it have already been making the rounds of video streaming sites.
Mason has broken down the video by character, starting off with clips of Jon Snow, Lord Varys, Lord Petyr Baelish, The Hound, Cersei Lannister, Lady Olenna Tyrell right up to Daenerys Targaryen, Tyrion Lannister and even a couple of White Walkers.
There are some questions as to when any of these fantasy characters ever used words like "DJ" and "bum rush" that feature on the Vanilla Ice track but they still do not manage to take away from the video's entertainment value.

Neither of South Africa's hockey teams will be going to Rio, but there is every chance that South Africa will have a presence in the Olympic final on August 18. Umpire John Wright is headed to the Games for an incredible fifth time.
It's a career that began when he was 14, back in the 1980s. It is difficult – no, impossible – to imagine a teenage football referee sending an adult player off the field, but it happened in hockey. Wright got his first chance to "blow" an adult league match in King William's Town when he was in grade nine. An umpire had failed to turn up. "Let him try," he recalls someone saying.
From there he quickly moved through the ranks and umpired his first international in 1995, Netherlands versus Argentina in Durban.
- Behind SA's Rio team are stories of athletes' resolve to overcome and to win
- Homecoming of sorts for hurdles coach
- Lebogang Shange's fast walk to fame
Now, with 202 internationals under his belt, one Olympic final and no fewer than three World Cup finals, Wright is among the elite of field hockey umpires in the world. When Australia scored their third goal in the 2104 World Cup final against the Netherlands a television commentator praised "a brilliant piece of umpiring, great advantage".
Henk Ehlers, the umpire manager in the 2014 World Cup, says: "John is possibly one of the best umpires in the world in absorbing pressure and he has a huge amount of respect from the players."
Ehlers' overall assessment of the performance of Wright and his umpiring partner in that final, Nathan Stagno of Gibraltar, was "wonderful" as they balanced management with the "flow that a game of this nature deserves".
The early stages of Wright's umpiring journey overlapped with a good playing career at various levels for Border, South African National Defence Force and Western Province (indoor and outdoor). In his first year out of school, he was one of the umpires in the national schoolboy tournament, Dick Stead Week.
Although he had five years of international experience when he first received an Olympic invitation, Wright still found the 2000 Sydney Olympics "a real eye-opener" because of the intensity and high standard of play.
He has noticed some changes in the game in recent years. "Players are pushing for every single decision. They are going to eat you if you show a slight crack in your armoury. There is a lot more talking than there used to be, but the game is too quick for them to get into a long conversation. If they do, they find that the ball is on the other side of the field."
The game has been speeded up to a remarkable degree. There is no longer off-sides in hockey, free hits can be taken immediately and rolling substitutions ensure fresh legs throughout the game.
Says Wright: "The changes have been well thought out and done much to make the game really quick, sometimes too quick when you consider the TV market.
"It definitely has not got easier to umpire, and hockey is one of the most difficult games to umpire because of the speed of the ball. We have most definitely had to become fitter, mentally and physically."
As a sport manager at the Tshwane University of Technology, Wright is in a good position to compare sports. He is also the elected president of the Northerns Cricket Union and the tournament secretary (cricket and hockey) for University Sports South Africa.
So, for the next few weeks South Africans will have one countryman to watch when the world's best hockey players take to the field.

Recent Transactions
Clerical Staffing Agency
Small Fleet Trucking Company
To get an idea as to how much the corporate world has evolved in the past few decades, one only needs to look as far as how companies handle the training of their employees today versus years ago. It used to be that companies would have a trainer come into the office to train employees, or they would send employees to a certified manufacturer location to be trained. In many cases, the training was done by an experienced employee who would teach the rest of the staff the company way to do things. The company way was always best because it allowed the company to maintain its policies without having to change the training.
The thing that changed the corporate training world was the advent of computer technology. There has always been certification programs in various industries that certain employees were required to take, but those certifications often required years of training and the testing was done at a central corporate location. The computer certifications that employees needed could be studied in a weekend, but the testing had to be delivered in a very specific way. After a while, computer hardware and software manufacturers created a long list of certifications that specialists needed to have and the corporate training industry was born.
Computer Training Continues To Drive The Training Industry
Instead of doing training and testing employees in-house, companies now provide employees with study materials and then send employees to specialized training centers in the local area. These are not the hardware or software manufacturer's locations, but these are organizations that have been certified by the manufacturers to teach and test for these various levels of accomplishment. Engineers, tech specialists and even general staff all need to become certified in various kinds of software programs and these training facilities were there to give the kind of training and testing that companies needed.
It did not take long for companies to see the value in paying a separate corporate training company to take care of all training. For example, it became cheaper for the company to pay a separate training company to do the employee orientations as opposed to always having paid staff members on hand who were only there to do orientation. The company could get the kind of quality orientation classes it needed, but it only paid an outsourcing rate to the corporate training organization. After a while, employees were being sent to off-site training for everything from learning the latest software program to ongoing testing for aptitude and managerial skills.
The Costs Of Running A Training Company Are Often Misunderstood
Over the years, the corporate training industry has grown so fast that there are now many successful organizations training employees for clients all over the world. As with outsourcing IT support or building maintenance, the costs to outsource corporate training were so much lower than having a company do the training itself that it was a good business move to send the training off-site, or bring an outsourced training organization into the company office building and let them take care of all corporate training for the entire staff.
When people outside the training industry look at a corporate training organization, they may not see the many costs that go into keeping a organization like that going, but those costs are persistent and high. For example, the trainers who deliver certification classes must, themselves, be certified. In some cases, a trainer will be hired who already has the necessary background to teach a class, but there are the trainers who need to be certified and that can cost the company money. Another cost associated with corporate training is the constantly changing software that manufacturers use to certify specialists and the persistent changes to general training software as well. The task of keeping pace with changes in training software can be extremely expensive.
Corporate Training Companies Seek Out Long-Term Arrangements With Customers
Whenever possible, a corporate training company seeks out a long-term contract with a client and that is also something the client wants as well. It is expensive to set up a new training client and it is expensive for the client to try and find a new training organization as well. Once the training organization has the necessary personnel and materials in place to deliver on what the client needs, both parties benefit from a very long and lucrative relationship. But the ongoing costs required to train employees can cause challenges to employees that most training organizations struggle to solve.
When a training organization looks for funding, it needs something perpetual. Bank lending is too finite and expensive to be of any long-term use to a training company. A training company that has to continuously worry about payroll and the costs of upgrading software does not need to add interest and service charges to those concerns as well. To improve cash flow, a corporate training company requires a cash flow that is based on its outstanding invoices, and not just the invoices that have been paid on time. To meet financial obligations, a training company needs to have access to all of its cash flow at all times. That is why receivables-based funding is the right answer.

If only, if only.
If only those eyes could flutter open
If only those lips could mumble a sound.
If only those ears could hear me laugh.
If only the hands of time could be retraced back.
Then we could be a suckling again.
She was taken by surprise
She could not tell when she was going.
If only she had stayed.
DEATH be not proud.
For you have done thy worst.
If only she could break free from the depth of exile.
But its impossible,
For she is forever shut in the catacomb.

Sekanjabmin is a Middle Eastern drink made by adding syrup to water. It combines sugar and vinegar to replace electrolytes lost through sweat. The first time I made sekanjabmin, I followed Cariadoc's drink recipe.
At Panteria last weekend, I had the privilege of trying a much more flavorful version of the drink. The bar owner gave me his recipe:
- Bring 4 cups of water to a simmer.
- Add 8 cups of sugar and bring the water to a boil.
- Add 1 cup white vinegar (apple cider vinegar is also good).
- Simmer the mixture just below a boil for 30 minutes.
- Add a handful of flavoring (orange, lime, or lemon zest and juice) and keep the mixture at a simmer for another 30 minutes.
- Strain the mixture into a container, cool, and serve.

It was my bad luck that I couldn't meet him the day i visited but when we had a conversation with him over the phone I felt the positive vibes. He is very humble and kind. His creativity of designing of the home and the selection of the wooden showpieces, vintage telephones, quirky displays, artifacts and artistic sense is clearly visible. This farm created with mud, wooden and every other nature friendly material.
At the entrance of this farm there is a place to sit and relax. On the entrance they have rooms on the right side which are very earthy, neat and comfortable. There are many rooms which can accommodate a group in a single room and also a separate room for couples. The kitchen is on the left where they cook and serve food in Pottery.
They have a terrace on the first floor which is windy, spacious and perfect for chilling, having drinks and dinner. Since it is a Eco friendly accommodation no air conditions were available.. but we didn't quite need them as the weather was amazing too !
They have built a Machan at a tree top level which offers magnificent view with a greenery all around. As a quick tip, I'd first say- don't rely only on the pictures- the Machan is one of those places that is better when experienced with a loved one, and even the most beautiful pictures of it cannot do it any justice.
The area of this farm is 7 acres which is surrounded by trees. There are more than 700 trees of different varieties. Fruits, flowers, veggies everything is naturally grown here.
We had an organic food made by local Maharashtrian with most ingredients sourced from the farm. They serve what is grown in the farm. We really enjoyed gorging on bhendi sabji with Bhakar, Dal and rice smoked in a matka on firewood and many more lip smacking delicious cuisine. I am sure we ended up overeating.
My blog would be incomplete without mentioning the friendly and support staff, who always extended their service and help whenever needed by the guests. Staffs are totally puts in their heart to make the guests feel welcome, comfortable and "Happy".
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened
That was exactly our state of mind as we left the slice of Heaven called "Arwa farms". Feel so lucky to have stumbled upon this gem and staying there for 2 days.
Kudos and heartfelt thanks to Mr Fawzan for opening up their little paradise to guests where we get to experience the real farm life. If you are looking to get out of the city, stay in a location that is a bit of a struggle to get to, and reconnect with nature? Then this should top your list.

The Washington Post's adjectives in Thursday's coverage of the Obama press conference signaled their approval. "Obama takes tougher tone on economy, foreign policy" was the headline at the top of Page One. Post reporters Peter Wallsten and Zachary Goldfarb led off with how Obama "belittled" congressional Republicans for taking vacations during debt-limit talks and contrasted their work effort with his young daughters. But his mission was to "reassert a commanding presence" on the issues. He was not "petulant" or "whiny," he was "showing a combative side that Americans rarely see."
The front-page promo underneath hailed Dana Milbank's "Washington Sketch" full of praise. "The pugilist in chief: A press corps gathered to hear our regularly scheduled president meets a rather feisty gentleman instead."
Online, the headline was "Obama uses combative new tone to retake reins on economic, foreign policy issues". Inside, on A4, the headline was "Obama asserts himself on top issues." Wallsten and Goldfarb cooed:
Throughout the news conference, he spoke with more vigor and specificity than he has at any point before about the potential dangers Americans face if Republicans don't agree by a "hard deadline" of Aug. 2 to lift the debt ceiling. He suggested that the GOP would be blamed for damaging cuts to the National Weather Service, food inspections, veterans benefits and Social Security payments.
"I've said to some of the Republican leaders, 'You go talk to your constituents, the Republican constituents, and ask them are they willing to compromise their kids' safety so that some corporate-jet owner continues to get a tax break,' " the president said. "And I'm pretty sure what the answer would be."
The Post reporters made no attempt to see if there was any accuracy in that "vigor and specificity," whether Republicans opposed spend for food-safety inspectors, or whether that was simply press-conference trash talk. No pundit lauding "civility" was asked if this new "combative" tone was going to help Obama strike a deal with House Republicans. He was simply allowed to paint himself as the hero and everyone else as knaves:
Obama turned the Libya question into a chance to portray himself as a good-faith actor operating in a sea of mal-intentioned politicians.
He accused critics of making a "cause celebre" out of protecting Gaddafi, who has killed Americans. Obama said that his administration has sent "reams of information" to Congress on the Libya effort, and that the United States has carried out its narrow mission there with success.
"So a lot of this fuss is politics," he added.
Obama was most animated on the deficit debate, again taking pains to present himself as the one willing to make politically costly decisions about spending cuts.
He described himself as the commander in chief who has "difficult conversations with the Pentagon, saying, `You know what, there's fat here [and] we're going to have to trim it out.' "
The president's stern new tone suggested that administration officials think the cordial outreach and behind-the-scenes negotiations they have been using in deficit-reduction talks with Republicans have not been working.
Under Wallsten and Goldfarb, columnist Dana Milbank was floating on a cloud of delight. The headline on his column: "Who's the pugnacious fellow on the podium?" Liberal Democrats wanted Obama to fight harder, and coincidentally, so did the staffers at The Washington Post. Milbank wanted trash talk:
This was Obama as he ought to be. He often seems passive in public, giving friend and foe alike the impression that his presidency is adrift on matters from Libya to gay marriage to the debt talks. But on Wednesday, in his first full news conference in three months, he was uncharacteristically assertive, shelving lawyerly rejoinders in favor of basketball trash talk.
"Promise made, promise kept," Obama retorted when challenged by ABC News's Jim Sciutto about the original claim that the attack on Libya would take "days, not weeks."
"Asked and answered," he replied when asked by the Wall Street Journal's Laura Meckler about his ambiguous position on same-sex marriage.
When Bloomberg's Julianna Goldman asked about business leaders' complaints, Obama rejoined: "When unemployment's at 3 percent and they're making record profits, they're going to still complain about regulations."'
The session began with a less-than-promising sign: Teleprompters. But contained in the prepared text was a more spirited, populist theme than the nuanced president usually allows himself.
"The tax cuts I'm proposing we get rid of are tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires, tax breaks for oil companies and hedge fund managers and corporate jet owners," he said. "I think it would be hard for the Republicans to stand there and say that, 'The tax break for corporate jets is sufficiently important that we're not willing to come to the table."
He mentioned the corporate jets six times before parking that bit of class warfare with a challenge to Republicans to ask their constituents "are they willing to compromise their kids' safety so that some corporate jet owner continues to get a tax break?"
Obama, his fingers sometimes curled over the front of the lectern, mostly managed to avoid the testiness he often flashes when challenged...
He did? "Testy" was certainly an adjective that fit like a glove -- if you're not an Obama voter. Milbank has tried to claim to conservatives that he's really an independent, a mugwump, a swing voter. Baloney. He loves it when Democrats suggest the Republicans favor cruel and unusual fiscal punishment:
The newly forceful Obama spoke of the "selfish" approach of Republicans, their need to "say a lot of things to satisfy their base" and the imperative that they "move off their maximalist position." He charged that Republicans -- "these guys," he called them -- would have us "paying interest to Chinese . . . and we're not going to pay folks their Social Security checks..."
"Call me naive, but my expectation is that leaders are going to lead," Obama admonished the opposition. He likened the Republicans to kids who procrastinate on their homework, and to deadbeats: "They took the vacation. They bought the car. And now they're saying, 'Maybe we don't have to pay' . . . We're the greatest nation on Earth and we can't act that way."
Populism, pugilism and American exceptionalism: From a stoic president, this was a refreshing blend.

Drawing inspiration from mixing girly tones with boyish items (seen on style icons such as Rihanna and Kylie Jenner), the combination of the two styles mixed together creates imagery of a feminine but tough protagonist. Scroll down to see how I have styled these items and make sure you let me know what you think in the comment section below!

Herbs are wonderful indoor plants. They offer a breath of fresh air in the winter and spring. Herbs can be great indoor plants providing beauty, accents to food, and good health. And once they're established, you can transplant them outside in the spring in the garden. If you have a place where there is light, water, and warmth it's possible to grow herbs inside. Ideal places to grow herbs are often the bathrooms, kitchen, or sun room. Humidity and fertilizers are also required.
You can grow herbs from seed, or you can select seedling plants. Plants that are healthy and green are a good place to start when selecting herbs. The plant should be compact and full from all sides. There should be some signs of new growth. If a plant is wilted or has stems that are withered, avoid it. Consult the plant's tag to determine if the required light and humidity requirements can be met in your home.
There is a multitude of herb plants that people can grow inside. There are many popular herb plants that are used in cooking. These herbs are good to grow in bright, indirect light: rosemary, parsley, chives, oregano, bay leaves, marjoram, sage, and mint. Basil, coriander (cilantro), dill, ginger, and thyme grow well in southern exposures. The care of raising healthy herbs requires good watering, the right temperatures, the correct amount of humidity and fertilizers, and good plant hygiene.
Herbs flourish when they are watered conservatively and consistently. Checking the water needs of a plant can be accessed pressing on the soil to determine whether a plant needs water. Plants benefit from good air in homes with regular circulation and average indoor temperatures. Maintaining the right amount of humidity for herbs can be difficult. Plants grow well receiving the right amount of humidity when they are placed on gravel filled trays of gravel.
Plants need fertilizer to succeed. Fertilizing once in the winter at half the strength is the right amount for herbs. Keeping herbs health also requires good grooming/ maintaining herbs by pinching back leaves to stimulate growth and giving them a rinse once a month in a shower or sink will help maintain herbs an to grow successfully.
Outdoors herbs can be right at home tucked in among the blooms in your flower beds if you don't have a dedicated vegetable-growing spot. Just make sure you know how large the plants will get (cilantro and dill can get over 4′) before putting them in the ground. Consider a spot near your back door to make cutting for kitchen use convenient.

Route 104 - North
Continue along into the Petalburg Woods. As you do, though, take note as you cross the bridge; once you get to the south side, Cut down the tree to your right to get a Revive .
Petalburg Woods
Cut down the tree just to the southeast as you enter the woods. First go north of the small grassy area nearby and examine the empty tile to find a Tiny Mushroom .
As you go along the path, you'll see a yellow-shirted kid standing around; the camera viewpoint may put him behind a tree and make him hard to see. Speaking with him will net you the Miracle Seed , an item that will boost the power of the holder's Grass moves by 20% which is quite a bit!
Further to the east is a large mossy rock; you may not know, but this rock is what you can use to evolve Eevee into Leafeon if you level it up near here.
Near the mossy rock, just to the south, is a Great Ball . After grabbing the ball, jump over the ledge to the south, then continue south and over another ledge. Go west and pick up the X Attack .
Now, to the southeast, you'll see how the taller, darker grass makes two "L" corners, right? Examine the tile squished between the sides of the northwestern "L" corner to find another Tiny Mushroom . Now continue further along the path southward to Route 104.
Route 104 - South
Here, go south and west to Mr. Briney's shack near the shoreline. Speak with him inside and you'll find him chasing Peeko around the table. Okay… Anyhow, block them and speak with Mr. Briney to opt to take a ride to Dewford.
