Law minister Salman Khurshid, who is under attack from Arvind Kejriwal, feels 'an ant' cannot be a challenge to an elephant like Congress and says the activist is having a 'pipe-dream' of taking the space of big parties by trying to "destroy" them through allegations. He says that Kejriwal, who faces allegations like foreign funding for his NGOs, should answer these instead of only throwing mud at others. Khurshid has been attacked by Kejriwal over alleged financial improprieties in an NGO run by him and his family.
In a free-wheeling interview, Khurshid strongly refutedcharges that he threatened Kejriwal on his proposed visit to Farrukhabad. "Why would I have threatened Kejriwal. What for? What would I achieve? What do you think is his stature, status and personality that I would condescend to take him on".
"He (Kejriwal) is too small,…pathetically small to be in confrontation with our party. An ant does not destroy an elephant…a hundred ants in an elephant trunk will not hurt an elephant," Khurshid told PTI.
To questions whether he thinks that some new entrant in politics could be a beneficiary of corruption controversies surrounding both major political parties Congress and BJP, the law minister said, "This is a pipe-dream".
"This is a pipe-dream that some people have that if they destroy everything that exists, parties that exist with a long years of history in a frenzy of unreasonable and senseless attack, those parties will disappear and the field will be clear for them.
"I think this kind of 'destroy all', this kind of 'let us burn everything down' characters, believe that in the ashes will grow a new India and the ashes of that new India will the opportunities to those little groups and parties to come to power. It is a pipe dream," Khurshid said.
While he refrained from endorsing allegations of Congress leader Digvijaya Singh about foreign funding of Kejriwal's NGO, Khurshid insisted "all these questions must be answered" and that Singh has collected "lot of good material".
"It is a strange kind of understanding that they can ask questions from anybody and expect answers from everybody but they will not answer questions put to them. Kejriwal should have answered them by now. I answered within three hours of coming back to India," the Law Minister said.
Khurshid also dismissed allegations of irregularities in the land deals of Congress president Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra in Haryana, saying "there is nothing wrong that we need to be shy of…it is wrong for the people to pry into the affairs of a private businessman simply by saying that they are related to somebody."
Khurshid said he knows that the "attack is not on a private businessman" but against his leadership. He also rejected suggestions that controversies over Vadra's land deals has dented the party image.
"Somebody speaks false about you because he hopes that some people will believe it and if some people believe it, it is sad and tragic. But I have full confidence that nothing will stick and nothing will dent…," the law minister said.
Suggesting that his statement was twisted out of context on daring Kejriwal to visit Farrukhabad, his parliamentary constituency, Khurshid said, "If you decide that a story cannot be made without twisting what I have said, I would say run the whole clip and let people judge".
Khurshid said what he meant to say was that when Kejriwal will go to Farrukhabad, he will return with a "response" on his allegations. The Law Minister said that by saying that he will now use his blood, he meant that will use his own blood now to write his story.
"I cannot use somebody else's blood in my pen…I don't speak of violence and hurt. I don't speak of degrading or demeaning someone else," he said, adding "how can I threat?".
Asked how could a politician considered sophisticated and suave use aggressive language against Kejriwal, Khurshid said, "I am not a machine. I am a human being".
He rued that while he was being feted abroad "people here in the streets were making statements that I should be arrested. My wife should be arrested."
Asked if he was bitter or angry over the entire episode, Khurshid said, "Sometimes it is bitterness. Sometimes it is anger. Sometimes it is sadness. Sometimes I think it is concern, a concern not about myself alone but about the institutions that I represent….As a law minister if I cannot defend myself, how can I defend my party and my government".
To a question that there is a view that he could not answer specific charges like fictitious people having got the equipment for the disabled people by his NGO, he shot back asking "What charges? Where is the proof?"
Stressing that the basic issue is whether the camps were held or not, he said equipment like hearing aid, tricycle and crutches can be given only to somebody who needs even "if there is an overlap" and three persons say somebody else took their equipment.
"I am confident that I will be able to come out of it but…if you hurt someone it is irretrievable. Will this damage be undone. If I prove in courts that the camps were done and the court gives me money. Is my life going to be the same before all this happened," the law minister wondered.
He sought to steer clear of a question on whether he as a law minister has evidence to suggest wrong doings by the children of former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and LK Advani as claimed by Digvijaya Singh.
"I have no idea. law minister does not walk on streets saying that condemn this guy or don't condemn that guy. If there is evidence, I have no reason to believe there is no evidence. Now if somebody claims to have evidence, they also have right and locus to bring their evidence in knowledge of any authority. Nobody stops them," he said.
Asked about Kejriwal's attack on Nitin Gadkari, Khurshid said he cannot say anything more to BJP than saying "since now, you know the bitter taste of the medicine, will you now please review everything that you have done in the past few months".
"I do believe, whatever my colleagues would have said, that when we are talking of somebody's business, we should talk in terms of business accountability.
"Public interest should be retained only to the extent that good governance is something that is expected of all businesses but we should not interfere with somebody's political career on the basis of accountability and good governance," he said.
The minister also frowned upon criticism over his earlier statement that he can sacrifice his life for Sonia Gandhi.
"When the attack is on my leadership, I have no other moral obligation but to defend it with all my might. When I say that I want to lay down my life for my leadership, I am scoffed at, laughed and made to be a sycophant," he rued.
"When I defended Congress in media, it was said I have no business as a law minister to defend Congress party. Kejriwal said you are not the law minister of Congress but for the country. Yes, but Congress is ruling the country and I am Law Minister because of Congress. Should I not defend Congress.
"So first I should not defend Congress. then I should not defend my self, then I should not defend my family, my people and my character. So I should not defend at all. I should give my head on a platter and say you can bury me, you can throw me out of politics," the law minister said sarcastically.
Asked whether the projection of Narendra Modi within BJP is a challenge to Congress, Khurshid said he does "not see Modi as a challenge at all" but added it will be a fault on his part to say BJP is not a challenge at all as two major parties in a democracy are always a challenge to each other.

Fear Avoidance as the Body's Defence Mechanism for Death

Today within the sphere of chronic pain, the mechanism of fear avoidance is a well-known concept that has been substantiated through international literature in the field. As patients believe that work and physical activity will aggravate their pain, the logical response is to progressively implement avoidance strategies for particular physical movements. This will thus tend to perpetuate a feedback loop: pain - non-confrontation - weakening - pain. In this article, we aim to show that this concept is transferable to the field of serious illness and palliative care, even if the term is used differently on a therapeutic level. The idea of avoidance here relates to death and can be defined in the following way: fear of death/distress - non-confrontation regarding death – life/death instinct ambivalence. Because of this psychological life-saving mechanism, the subject who is ill remains in the stage of life/death instinct ambivalence, in other words, living. The implications of this model for clinical practice are completely new, whether applied at the moment of diagnosis, during the psychological experience that accompanies the illness or even in the aforementioned final phase of life. the mechanism of fear avoidance represents a real life-saving defence, whether from the moment of diagnosis of serious illness, during the psychological process that accompanies the illness, or in the final moment of death, allows the patient to die, psychologically speaking, more comfortably.

What a bind!
These are the pages of my short story 'zine A Stranger Came. Those of you who've been following my blog regularly will know that I've been typesetting and letterpress printing this story for the past few months. It's been a bit of a painstaking endeavour! The text is set in Morris Gold 8pt type, and because I didn't have enough of it to set a full page at a time, I instead spent many weeks typesetting two paragraphs at once, printing those, breaking up the type, sorting it, and then setting the next two paragraphs....
The last of the printing itself was finished about a month ago. (Special thanks at this point must go to Nick at The Print Project for teaching me how to typeset and print, and for letting me come over every week to print more bits of it.)
This week, the pages will at last get bound together. The rather marvellous Alice Rix is going to come around to lend a hand, and to help me work out how to bind it. Hopefully, by the end of this week, 86 copies of A Stranger Came should be bound and cut and ready for sale.
Here are the things you need for binding:
Clockwise from top: Craft knife costing £2.69 or less; hole punching device; hammer; embroidery thread.
More to follow.

The last time Orlando City lost a match, the club responded by rattling off a franchise-record six consecutive wins.
Before falling 2-1 at home to rival Atlanta United on Sunday, it had been a while since Orlando City had to deal with a loss. The Lions' last defeat before Sunday's game was a 2-0 loss to NYCFC on March 17, before the club had the services of striker Dom Dwyer.
Plus, the NYCFC loss was Sacha Kljestan's first match with the Lions, Cristian Higuita hadn't yet found his form and coach Jason Kreis was still utilizing a 4-4-2 formation with a diamond-shaped midfield.
The loss to NYCFC might as well have occurred in a different season when compared to last week's loss to Atlanta United. And Kreis is looking forward to seeing how his club responds to losing this time around. Orlando City (6-3-1, 19 points) takes on Toronto FC (2-6-1, 7 points) at 8 p.m. on Friday at BMO Field.
"It's a really difficult place to go, which I do think says something because how we have taken this emotional loss after having six wins a row," Kreis said. "So it will be, as it always is, about the response."
Toronto FC might be shorthanded, but the Reds are still the reigning MLS Cup champions. A poor recent run of form doesn't mean Orlando City can relax, Kreis said. He also referenced the last time Orlando City had a Friday match – the Lions recorded their only clean sheet of the season in a 2-0 win over the Philadelphia Union.
"I think the confidence needs to come from within right now," Kreis said.
"In the second half against Atlanta, I think we can take a lot of confidence from that performance and say that when we really put our mind to it and play the right way – what we're looking to do – we can be quite effective.
"As we go through the season, we know we're going to have multiple times where we're playing three times in a week, so it's important to see how our guys react to a bit of a short turnaround. Last time we did it, we did quite well."
The "we're focused on us" mindset has been something of a mantra this season, and it's something players repeated ahead of Friday's match.
"We want to play our game," centerback Amro Tarek said. "We want to win each game. We don't care [who we play against]."
Orlando City is also focused on not giving up the first goal. Despite some success this season, Orlando City has conceded first in eight of out of 10 matches.
"I think we can all make a concerted effort to be better defensively," said right back Will Johnson. "A lot of that starts with the ball."
The Lions will play Friday's match with a missing player of their own. Midfielder Yoshi Yotún, who has been named to the MLS Team of the Week twice this season, will sit out Friday's match after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season last week against Atlanta.
Holding midfielder Uri Rosell will likely step into the starting XI with Yotún sidelined. Rosell played the entire second half against the Five Stripes and – according to Kreis – played his best match of the season.
"Uri's a high-level player," Kreis said. "That's why we brought him here. He's been a player that's been waiting for his opportunity to start in a match. He's come into some matches had some really positive contributions. I would say [against Atlanta] was his most positive one. Very, very sound tactical player, but can also get around the park and made tackles."
Rosell said he's put the Atlanta match behind him, as has the rest of the club. He said the Lions are ready, despite a short week to prepare.
"I think the good think about soccer is you're just looking forward [to] the next game," he said. "Of course, we felt that we could [get] a better result, but we have to think forward. We have a very good opponent in front of us. Hopefully we can win."

Guiding women recovering from trauma to return to the workforce to achieve financial independence.
Guiding women recovering from trauma to return to the workforce to achieve financial independence.
We meet women where they are and provide practical tools to build a balanced foundation and sustainable financial independence allowing them to proclaim, "I AM UNSHAKEABLE."
UNSHAKEABLE was born from a desire to inspire, teach and empower women in recovery from sex trafficking, substance addiction, domestic abuse and homelessness. We believe these women are worthy of our time and talents and we want to be part of their journey to creating a new life. We developed the 12 week I AM Series, career coaching services and our Business Alliance because we firmly believe if we don't change their economics, we don't change their future.
UNSHAKEABLE is a 501c3 nonprofit that partners with organizations providing rescue, shelter, addiction recovery and emotional counseling for these women. The services the women receive at shelters, safe houses and sober houses are a critical first step on their path to restoration and provide emotional healing from their trauma. UNSHAKEABLE provides the essential next step of reentry support to ensure sustainable financial independence and to reduce the rate of recidivism. We understand that economic instability will drive someone to do whatever they need to do to survive.
UNSHAKEABLE chooses not to burden other nonprofits financially and provides its services at no cost.
The women UNSHAKEABLE serve have limited work experience or none at all, education gaps and arrest records. They struggle to gain any form of employment when they complete their rehabilitation programs, much less launch a career that will provide sustainable employment and financial independence. Their economic vulnerability makes them susceptible to fall back into the life they worked so hard to escape.
UNSHAKEABLE's focus is on the reentry phase of the rehabilitation process. The UNSHAKEABLE Business Alliance bridges this gap with companies in Nevada and allows the applications of UNSHAKEABLE clients to get a second review and with some partners, a guaranteed interview. Our partners understand that these women are working hard to heal emotionally, spiritually and physically but need help to also heal financially.
The I AM Series powered by UNSHAKEABLE brings community and industry leaders together to teach participants they are worth it, to love and value who they are and empower them to make choices for themselves from a place of emotional, relational, physical, financial and vocational strength. We also encourage participants, many for the first time, to discover and explore career paths that leverage their talents and their passions regardless of their education, so they will be UNSHAKEABLE in their recovery and on their journey to financial independence.
The I AM Series is presented with a brand marketing perspective. We recruit the best of the best from a variety of industries and companies nationwide for our faculty. We will custom design the I AM Series curriculum based on the needs of the partner organizations.
Career coaching is provided to graduates of the I AM Series who spend 12 weeks connecting with our career coaches. Career pathing services include assessing passion and skills, scheduling job-shadowing experiences, assisting with employment applications and prepping for interviews. We leverage existing relationships in the UNSHAKEABLE Business Alliance or solicit new businesses to add new industries based on the specific needs of our clients.
The UNSHAKEABLE Business Alliance is a collection of businesses who support the mission of UNSHAKEABLE to create economic independence in a variety of ways.
Celebrating Along the Journey.

Forks at the ready in Scotland
The last forty-eight hours has created the perfect menu for a leisurely day trip or once-in-a-lifetime holiday or celebration in Scotland. Our Director and Chief Tour Curator Brenda Anderson tells you why:
Put simply, Scotland has launched both its first ever Food Tourism Action Plan and the 2018 Scotland Food & Drink Fortnight. This offers great news if like me you step out the front door and use your stomach as your guide! Trying the local cuisine and liquid libations of a nation is one of the very best ways to experience the local culture and really get under the skin of a place. Almost ten years ago, Mr Erik Wolf described Scotland as "one of the most unique, memorable and interesting places for food and drink on the planet". He'd know. Mr Wolf is one of the world's leading culinary travel experts and CEO of the World Food Travel Association.
Of course Scotland has always been a place people want to visit and often it involves Whisky! Many are 'deliberate food travellers' and seek out the best or have chosen to engage in Tasting Scotland's personalised tour service. Others may have found the food to be a little 'hit or miss'. You may even have experienced the food in Scotland in the past to be a too international in style and you're not really getting that real 'sense of place'.
The Food Tourism Action Plan is the cornerstone from which change is really going to happen. We are now a nation who not only appreciates just how important tourism is to Scotland, but are incredibly proud of the enviable larder of premium and healthy ingredients that sits on our doorstep.
Whether travelling from near or far fully expect that Scotland will be a country where you can enjoy high quality, memorable food and drink experiences delivered by proud and passionate local ambassadors, at every step of your journey.
Sixteen thousand five hundred kilometres of coastline is awash with fabulous fish and delicious, plump seafood. Our fertile land ensures high quality fruits, vegetables, barley, oats and other cereals. With plenty of rain our grass is perfect for the outdoor grazing of our cattle; which of course includes our native Aberdeen-Angus beef and the instantly recognisable Highland 'Hairy Coo'. Our heather clad hills and our forests are perfect for deer and all manner of game birds. And a vibrant workforce, of often young entrepreneurs are innovatively pursuing their own dreams and creating an exciting new wave of Scottish food, whisky, gin and craft beers ready for you to sample.
The Scotland Food & Drink Fortnight, our annual 14-day September celebration where food and drink is at the centre of a diverse range of events across the length and breadth of the country gets better each year. It officially starts this Saturday, running from 1 – 16 September. Whether it's the Spirt of Speyside Whisky Festival or the fun of the Meat, Heat and Treat categories in the 'Men vs Food' Challenges at Floors Castle there is most definitely something for everyone.
So, are you ready to experience for yourself the words of Mr Wolf? Need some help planning your food and drink based day trip or multi-day tour of Scotland? Look no further. We begin your experience with a tailor-made travel planning service starting with what you don't want on your trip! As humans we apparently find it easier to tell people what we don't want rather than what we do!
Focusing purely on the creation and first class delivery of culinary and whisky based itineraries means we give 100% of our attention to finding the hidden gems; that special little place where the owner milks his own goat herd to make the most delicious cheese or where the whisky distiller creates an unusual and incomparable blend of Scotch.
Whether a local or a visitor, looking to visit for a day tour, a short or longer break, celebrate a birthday, a honeymoon, a hen or stag do (when the usual event doesn't quite fit the bill!) or whatever the reason we can help.
We arrange the transportation, accommodation, visits to artisan producers, whisky and gin distillery visits and anything else your heart (and stomach!) desires. We're only finished when you tell us we are. It's easy to get started. Contact [email protected] or call Brenda directly on +44 (0)7974 212529.

For many people, the holidays are the perfect opportunity to take a break from dieting and splurge on indulgent foods without the feeling of guilt. Nevertheless, since the holiday period is over, it is high time to start thinking about how to get rid of all the excess fat that might have appeared out of nowhere. Are you suffering from post-New Year's food coma? January is in full swing, and it is time to face the fact that you might have put on some extra weight. Instead of negative self-talk, try being kind to yourself and commit to a plan that will get you one step closer to that perfect beach body. By following some of these steps, you will surely get back on track after holiday indulgence.
1. Develop positive thinking
It is natural and perfectly okay to relax during the holidays and take a break from your regular diet and exercise routine. It is completely understandable to devote this time solely to your family, enjoying all the joys that the holidays have to offer. Nevertheless, due to excessive binge eating and drinking, it is easy to fall into the spiral of negative self-talk and sometimes even post-holiday depression. Because of this, it is important to remind yourself as frequently as needed that things will get better, and gaining a bit of weight will not mean the end of the world. Instead of drowning in self-pity, guilt and anxiety, try to develop positive thinking. A great way to do this is to incorporate the practice of meditation into your daily routine. Focus on positive thoughts, and set up a game plan for getting back on track. After making a plan, be determined to stick to it.
2. Sweat it out
The best way to boost your mood after a period of overeating and drinking is to go hit the gym as soon as possible. A good sweat session of at least 30 minutes will get your heart pumping and your body moving. If you are not a fan of the gym, then opt for daily walks in nature or maybe go for a run. Whatever option you prefer, it is key to get back on track with your fitness routine. Promise to yourself that you will be persistent long after you get rid of the post-holiday belly bloat. Exercising has a lot of health benefits, such as alleviating back pain and making sure that heart disease is at bay.
3. Eat a lot of greens
Do not fall for detox diets that promise quick results. Diets such as the watermelon diet simply do not work long term. Instead, base your diet on whole foods and try to incorporate as many vegetables and fruits as possible. Vegetables such as kale and cucumbers are packed full of nutrients that your body desperately needs after the post-holiday period. If you find yourself short on time, or you do not feel like preparing something at home, then search for an affordable muscle building meal plan. Not only can you pick and choose the meals, but they will have them packaged up and delivered to your address by request. This is a quick and convenient way to make sure that you are following a well-rounded diet without any restrictions.
4. Water, water, water
Overeating over the holidays can leave anyone feeling bloated, lethargic and overall horrible. Your body probably needs to take a rest from all the fatty and sugary foods that just simply had to find their way into your belly. One of the best ways to reset your body is to drink a lot of mineral water to make sure that all the toxins get flushed out. It is known that consuming a lot of alcohol can lead to severe dehydration and migraines. People who enjoy sipping on some tea should consider brewing chamomile or peppermint. Chamomile is excellent for the digestive tract, whilst peppermint acts as a remedy for an upset stomach. Whichever beverage you go for, make sure that it does not contain any sweeteners and try to avoid coffee!
5. Get enough sleep
Sleeping for at least seven hours every night is crucial for optimal hormone levels, as well as a fast metabolism. Christmas and New Year's is a time when parties are in full swing, so it is not uncommon to suffer from lack of sleep. Nevertheless, it is important to give your immune system the chance to rebuild itself. Also remember, that without proper sleep, the body is unable to function and this can lead to serious diseases. For best results, try turning off your electric devices one hour before going to bed, and you will wake up refreshed!
In summary, the holidays can leave anyone feeling bloated and lethargic. Nevertheless, by making sure that you get back on track with your fitness routine as soon as possible, you will be one step closer to achieving your summer body goals! Keep going!

We have a small favor to ask. People are reading the Haute Lifestyle than ever since our recent placement in the South Florida Blogger Awards but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. We do not have investors and everything Blog related is funded out of pocket– we want to keep our journalism as fun and open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Our article takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our perspective and voices matter – because it might well be your perspective, too.

MAN-E-NEWS// Mirock Toy at Wonderfestival Summer '15…
Mirock Toy's Kaneko Yowohei has just unveiled a ton of new figures he'll be bringing along to Wonderfestival Summer '15 this weekend! Featuring a number of Dr Mirock mash-ups including the jaw-dropping Massive Attack you see above, these have been joined by the debut of Mirock's new 1-part "Idol" figures (check them here if you haven't already) in a blue vinyl with aqua fades, plus our personal favourite, the beautifully weathered OG-AT/Dr Mirock tank. Whilst unfortunately securing any of these outside of the event is going to be as easy as pulling teeth from a chicken, we can at least rest easy in the knowledge that all these new figures are bound to see some sort of overseas release soon… We hope!

Spotted over at Toybot Studios comes one of the biggest collaborations in the history of kaiju, the RealxHead x Skull Toys Dokurocks Men! Pictured here in the purple/silver/black "Walder" colourway, the stunning 3-way head sculpt was taken care of by Skull Toys' Mirock, whilst the skull infused Chaosman-style body is RealxHead's work. Produced by the guys over at Fig-Lab (for this edition at least), expect more news on pricing and availability for this breathtaking piece soon…


text: The early collages (1982) by Zoviet France were even more savage than Nurse With Wound's, evoking a cross between musique concrete and tribal music. The monumental double-albums Mohnomishe (1983) and Eostre (1984) reduced the impact of their "wall of noise", but retained the two key elements that set Zoviet France apart: a trance-oriented approach and "lo-fi" electronics. The tetralogy of "Charm, Ceremony, Chance, Prophecy" ("CCCP"), begun with Misfits, Loony Tunes And Squalid Criminals (1986), marked a move towards a less hostile and more atmospheric sound. (from www.scaruffi.com) * Paolo di Paolo (1984-1986) * Andy Eardley (1990-1995) * Lisa Hale (1980-1981) * Peter Jensen (1980-1984) * Ben Ponton (1980-present) * Mark Spybey (1987-1989) * Robin Storey(1980-1992) * Mark Warren (1995-present) In response to the question where are they now, the various components of Zoviet France's erratic history are as follows: Co-founder, Robin Storey records, produces and performs live as Rapoon. Peter Jensen, the third original member, lasted until 1984. He is now performing cover versions as part of Meltdown. Paulo de Paulo was involved from 1984 until 1986. He now works as an illustrator based in London, for the press. Mark Spibey had the dubious honour of never appearing on a Zoviet France recording but did play live at the 'Paradiso' in Amsterdam, for their third ever performance. Relocated to Canada he was last heard of working on noise-based material with a member of Skinny Puppy. Andy Erdley and Andrew ? were both extensively involved in Zoviet France. Formerly known as Horizon 222, they are now together as Ingleton Falls. One of the pair, DJs at north-eastern ambient events under the name 'Zero Beat'. Zoviet France remain under the leadership of co-founder Ben Ponten, who incidentally, retains a commitment to animal rights.

Designs for the next three circulating commemorative €2 coins from Germany's Bundeslander series honoring each of the country's 16 states have been released.
The Ministry of Finance announced recently that the 2016 coin will honor Saxony, with Rhineland-Palatinate following in 2017 and Berlin the honoree in 2018.
2016: Dresden's Zwinger, a park complex, appears on the coin for Saxony. Jordi Truxa created the design, which shows a view of the park's courtyard
and its Crown Gate.
2017: Porta Nigra, a large Roman city gate in Trier, appears on the coin for Rhineland-Palatinate in a design by Frantisek Chochola.
2018: Berlin's coin is slated to depict the main building at Schloss Charlottenburg, a palace. Bodo Broschat created this design.
The series began in 2006 and is set to continue until all 16 states are honored, closing in 2021.

For this occasion, as in 2013, the FNMT is selling a portfolio of exclusive coins for that event, which I offer official data known.
First say that until 5 May, the day in which they pledged to send images of the portfolio, was not going to publish anything about it, but finding a seller, not Spanish, and has put up for sale giving false emission volumes, and I prefer to do so, with no Japan got very good image, but emphasizing that the volume of issuance of this portfolio is 3,000 units, up from 500 announced any.
As you can see in the picture, the portfolio is a set dedicated to the Succession to the Crown of Spain, where eight regular circulation coins of the 2015 coins in the set for the first time the image of Felipe included VI, also has a 2-euro coin of 2014 with the image of Juan Carlos I, plus 2 euro commemorative 2014 in which both monarchs appear.

Stable stars Lord County and Cave Top are our 2 runners on what will hopefully be a big Saturday for the yard. Lord County will be looking to maintain his unbeated record at the track when running in the 3:50 at Doncaster. He was victorious 3 times over hurdles last year and has already got his head infront over the larger obstacles this season and we are confident he will go very close today with the step up in trip promising to suit.
Cave Top is also returning to his favourite track today when going to post for the 4:00 at Uttoxeter, he was a dual winner at the track last year and looks to be on a very competitive mark now. He hasn't really had his conditions this season but hopefully the ground has come right for him today and he should be involved in the finish.

Audio Files for Listening to On the Move
A carefully selected range of Audio Files Maree has chosen that you can download and listen to. Increase your knowledge on different topics related to Maree's teachings of empowering you to recognise and believe in your own inner leadership abilities.
The Hard Stuff About Soft Skills Audio - by Maree Harris
If you are a Professional Service Provider, (or a leader or manager) and highly motivated to advance your career, then this Soft Skills Presentation is for you.
The Hard Stuff About Soft Skills – And Why We Need To Take Them Seriously was a presentation given to the Geelong Branch of CPA Australia. Its message, however, is very relevant to all professional service providers, not just accountants, and to leaders and managers in general.
Accountants were becoming aware that technical skills and professional qualifications were no longer enough to make them trusted advisers for their clients. Alone they would no longer produce the outcomes they wanted or the success they desired. They were realising that there was a skills gap that they needed to fill. They needed to move forward and fill that gap by investing in the development of their Soft Skills – the communication, people, interpersonal and self leadership skills.
Accountants are first and foremost service professionals and these all important Soft Skills are essential and integral to them building unparalleled relationships of trust with their people and their clients that really make a difference and set them apart as providers of professional services.
This Hard Stuff About Soft Skills presentation addresses many of the issues that challenge all professionals, leaders and managers for whom these skills are not well-developed and offers ways they can be managed.
It also offers ways that individual professionals, as well as the organisations that employ them, can begin to develop and enhance their Soft Skills and self-leadership skills.

The First Ten Pages
In a previous blog, I wrote about compelling characters. I wrote about an action that your hero must do within in the first ten pages of a script to help make him/her more relatable and likeable. This is one of many things that must take place in a spec script in order to keep a reader interested. If they read past the first ten pages, you're more likely to get a 'recommend' on the script. That means those higher up, the ones that foot the bill for your movie, will have a better chance of reading your script. If that happens, you've got a better chance of getting paid! And isn't that why we write? Well, yea, there's that whole self-therapeutic thing, but the main reason is to get paid!
I have created a list of five (5) things that you must have in those first ten pages to get your spec script past the reader. This is not an exhaustive list, just the top five things that I believe are the most important. Let's call them… Folden's Fundamental Five! Let's count them down.
5) Likable/Relatable Protagonist – This is what Blake Snyder calls the "Save the Cat" moment. Many movies take this literally and actually have the character save a cat. The audience melts, and an audible "Awwww" can be heard throughout the theater. Without being literal, this is a scene in which our hero does something that makes us like him/her. It can be catching a baby that's tossed from a burning building. It can be helping a little old lady take her groceries to her car. It can even be something as simple as playing a quick game of catch with the neighbor boy. As long as it makes the audience think, "Gee, he's a swell guy."
4) Worthy Opponent – This can be a person, a group of people, nature, or even our hero himself. This is what builds the conflict in your story. Without it, all you have is a boring slice of life narrative. What makes an opponent worthy? He/she must be stronger than your protagonist. He must challenge the hero! This is what forces your character to grow and change. Without change, your story will fall flat. After all, what's the purpose of telling the story if your hero learns nothing from his adventure? The opponent must be stronger than your hero, but not too strong, just strong enough to make the hero become stronger. The hero always has to win the battle, not always the war (can you say sequel?), but definitely the battle.
3) A Strong Want – Your protagonist will always voice what he wants, "I want the moon!" But it's not always what they need. What he needs is a loving family, someone to make him feel special and loved, "He's so fluffy!" It's only while journeying down that path towards what he wants that he discovers what he needs. I'm not saying that your hero always needs love. Some heroes may need independence, or acceptance. The point is that he should find it while reaching for what he thinks he wants, and that want should be present within the first ten pages.
2) Unwilling Protagonist – The hero's life is not what he wants it to be. He wants something more. Unfortunately that want leads him into an adverse situation. Sure, eventually it will get him where he needs to be, but he doesn't know that. He is being forced in a direction that he believes to be contradictory to what he wants. If it isn't, then what's the point? If he is pushed toward something that he believes he wants, then where is the conflict? Without conflict you don't have a story. He needs to fight it before eventually accepting The Call. Yes! The Call! The number one thing you need in the first ten pages.
1) The Call – This is the life changing moment in the hero's story. This is the catalyst that changes everything. The Inciting Incident! This is the moment of decision. Once he steps over that threshold, there's no coming back. At least not without being a changed man. This is the happening that begins your story, the whole reason for the hero's existence within the story. Without The Call there is nowhere for your character to go and if your character goes nowhere, then your story will surely follow.
Again, these aren't the only things that need to be in the first ten pages, but they are my top five. If I see these in the first ten pages, there's a very strong chance that I will continue reading. There is one thing that will get your script tossed aside quicker than anything else: formatting. Improper formatting will get your script turned away before the reader even starts to read it. Make sure your script is properly formatted. Get this book by Dave Trottier to learn everything you need to know.

Compiled with added comments FROM THE BOOK "OUR AUTHORIZED BIBLE VINDICATED" by Benjamin Wilkinson, PhD. Written 1930. All CAPITAL letters are mine, for emphasis (Keith Hunt) QUOTE EARLY FRANCE - WHICH BIBLE? In Southern France, when in 177 A.D. the Gallic Christians were frightfully massacred by the heathen, a record of their suffering was drawn up by the survivors and sent, NOT to the Pope of Rome, but to their brethren in ASIA MINOR (See Cathcart, Ancient British and Irish Churches, p. 16). Milman claims that the French received their Christianity from ASIA Minor. These apostolic Christians in Southern France were undoubtedly those who gave effective help in carrying the Gospel to Great Britain (Idem. p. 17). As we have seen above there was a LONG and BITTER struggle between the Bible of the British Christians and the Bible which was brought later to England by the missionaries of Rome. And as there were really only TWO Bibles, - the official version of Rome, and the Received text, we may safely conclude that the Gallic (or French) Bible, as well as the Celtic (or British), were the Received Text. NEANDER claims, as follows, that the first Christianity in England came NOT from Rome, but from Asia Minor, probably through France: "But the peculiarity of the later British church is evidence against its origin from Rome; for in many ritual matters it departed from the usage of the Romish church, and agreed MUCH MORE nearly with the churches of Asia Minor. It WITHSTOOD, for a LONG TIME, the authority of the Romish Papacy. This circumstance would seem to indicate, that the Britons had received their Christianity, either immediately, or through Gaul, from Asia Minor, - a thing QUITE POSSIBLE and EASY, by means of the COMMERCIAL intercourse. The later Anglo-Saxons, who opposed the spirit of ecclesiastical independence among the Britons, and endeavored to establish the church supremacy of Rome, were uniformly inclined to trace back the church establishment to a Roman origin; from which effort many FALSE legends as well as this might have arisen" (Neander, History of the Christian Religion and Church, Vol. 1, pp. 85, 86). (The so-called "Venerable Bede" in his book on Christianity in England, brings out all the historical detail that the British received the Gospel centuries before the Roman Catholic church set foot on British land (about 600 A.D.), and there was indeed a struggle between the "British church" and that of the "Roman church" for many centuries - Keith Hunt) THE WALDENSES IN NORTHERN ITALY - WHICH BIBLE? That the messengers of God who carried MSS from the churches of Judea to the churches of Northern Italy and on, brought to the FORERUNNERS of the Waldenses a Bible DIFFERENT from the Bible of Roman Catholicism, I quote the following: "The method which Allix has pursued, in his History of the Churches of Piedmont, is to show that in the ecclesiastical history of the century, from the fourth century, which he considers a period early enough for the enquirer after apostolical purity of doctrine, there are CLEAR proofs that doctrines, UNLIKE those which the Romish Church holds, and conformable to the belief of the Waldensian and Reformed churches, were MAINTAINED by theologians of the NORTH of Italy, down to the period, when the Waldenses first came into notice. Consequently the opinions of the Waldenses were NOT NEW to Europe in the eleventh or twelfth centuries, and there is nothing IMPROBABLE in the tradition, that the Subalpine Church PRESERVED in its INTEGRITY in an UNINTERRUPTED course from the FIRST preaching of the Gospel in the valleys" (Gilly, Waldensian Researches, pp. 118, 119). There are MANY EARLY historians who AGREE with this view (Comba, the Waldenses of Italy, p. 188). It is inspiring to bring to life again the OUTSTANDING history of an AUTHORITY on this point. I mean LEGER. This noble scholar of Waldensian blood was the apostle of his people in the terrible massacres of 1655, and labored intelligently to PRESERVE their ANCIENT RECORDS. His book, the "General History of the Evangelical Churches of the Piedmontese Valleys," published in French in 1669, and called "scarce" in 1825, is the PRIZED object of scholarly searchers. It is my good fortune to have that very book before me. LEGER, when he calls Olivetan's French Bible of 1537 "entire and pure," says: "I say 'pure' because all the ancient exemplars, which formerly were found among the Papists, were FULL of FALSIFICATIONS, which caused BEZA to say in his book on Illustrious Men, in the chapter on the Vaudois, that one must confess it was by the means of the Vaudois of the Valleys that France today has the Bible in her own language. This godly man, Olivetan, in the preface of his Bible, recognizes with thanks to God, that SINCE THE TIME of the APOSTLES, or THEIR immediate successors, the TORCH of the gospel has been lit among the Vaudois (or the dwellers in the Valleys of the Alps, two terms which mean the same), and has NEVER been extinguished" (Leger, General History of the Vaudois Churches, p. 165). The Waldenses of Northern Italy were foremost among the PRIMITIVE Christians of Europe in their RESISTANCE to the Papacy......They rejected the MYSTERIOUS doctrines, the HIERARCHAL priesthood and worldly titles of Rome, while they clung to the SIMPLICITY of the Bible...... In the FOURTH century, HELVIDIUS, a GREAT scholar of Northern Italy, ACCUSED Jerome, whom the Pope had empowered to form a Bible in Latin for Catholicism, with USING CORRUPT Greek MSS (Post-Nicene Fathers, Vol. 6. p. 338 - Christian Lit. Edition)...... And so learned and so powerful in WRITING and TEACHING was Jovinian, the pupil of Helvidius, that it demanded THREE of Rome's most FAMOUS fathers - Augustine, Jerome, and Ambose - to UNITE in OPPOSING Jovinians' influence...... Dr. DeSanctis, many years a Catholic official at Rome, some time official Censor of the Inquisition and later a convert to Protestantism, thus reports the conversation of a Waldensian scholar as he points out to others the ruins of Palatine Hill, Rome: " 'See,' said the Waldensian, 'a beautiful monument of ecclesiastical antiquity. These rough materials are the ruins of the two great Palatine libraries, one Greek and the other Latin, where the precious manuscripts of our ancestors were, collected, and which Pope Gregory 1, called the Great, cause to be burned' " (Gilly, Waldensian Researches, p. 80)........ ANCIENT DOCUMENTS OF THE WALDENSES There are modern writers who attempt to FIX the BEGINNING of the Waldenses from PETER WALDO, who began his work about 1175. This is a MISTAKE! The HISTORICAL name of this people as properly derived from the VALLEYS where they lived, is VAUDOIS. Their ENEMIES, however, ever sought to DATE their ORIGIN from WALDO.....Nevertheless the HISTORY of the Waldenses, or Vaudois, BEGINS CENTURIES BEFORE the days of Waldo. There remains to us in the ancient Waldensian language, "The Noble Lesson" (La Nobla Leycon), written about 1100 A.D., which assigns the FIRST opposition of the Waldenses to the Church of Rome to the days of CONSTANTINE the Great, when Sylvester was Pope. This may be gathered from the following extract: "All the Popes which have been from Sylvester to the present" (que tuit li papa, que foron de Silvestre en tro en aquest) (Gilly, Excursions to the Piedmont, Appendix 2, p. 10). Thus when Christianity, emerging from the long persecutions of pagan Rome, was raised to IMPERIAL POWER by the Emperor Constantine, the ITALIC Church in Northern Italy - later the Waldenses - is seen standing in OPPOSITION to papal Rome. Their BIBLE was of the FAMILY of the renowned ITALA. It was the translation into LATIN which represents the Received Text, Its very name "Itala" is derived from the Italic district, the regions of the VAUDOIS. Of the PURITY and RELIABILITY of this version, Augustine, speaking of DIFFERENT LATIN Bibles (about 400 A.D.) says: "Now among TRANSLATIONS themselves the ITALIAN (ITALA) is to be PREFERRED to the others, for it KEEPS CLOSER to the words without prejudice to CLEARNESS and EXPRESSION (Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers - Vol. 2, p. 542 - Christian Lit. Ed.) The OLD Waldensian LITURGY which they used in their SERVICES down through the centuries CONTAINED "texts of Scripture of the ancient Version called the Italick" (Allix, Churches of Piedmont - 1669 - p. 37). The REFORMERS HELD that the Waldensian Church was FORMED about 120 A.D., from which date on, they passed down from father to son the teachings they received from the apostles (Idem, p. 177). The Latin Bible, the Italic, was translated from the Greek NOT LATER than 157 A.D. (Scrivener's Introduction, Vol. 1, p. 43). We are indebted to BEZA, the RENOWNED associate of CALVIN, for the statement that the Italic Church dates from 120 A.D. From the illustrious group of scholars which gathered around Beza, 1590 A.D., we may understand how the Received Text was the BOND of UNION between great historic churches. As the sixteenth century is closing, we see in the beautiful Swiss city of Geneva, Beza, an outstanding champion of Protestantism, the scholar Cyril Lucar, later to become the head of the Greek Catholic Church, and Diodati, also a foremost scholar. As Beza ASTONISHES and CONFOUNDS the world by RESTORING MSS of the Greek NT from which the King James is translated, Diodati takes the same and translates into Italian a NEW and famous edition, adopted and circulated by the Waldenses (McClintock and Strong, Encycl. Art, "Waldenses")...... At the SAME TIME, ANOTHER group of scholars, BITTERLY HOSTILE to the first group, were gathering at Rheims, France. There the JESUITS, assisted by Rome and backed by all the power of SPAIN, brought FORTH an ENGLISH translation of the VULGATE. In its preface they expressly declared that the Vulgate had been translated in 1300 into Italian and in 1400 into French. "the sooner to shake out of the deceived people's hands, the false heretical translations of a sect called Waldenses." This proves that Waldensian Versions existed in 1300 and 1400. It was the Vugate, Rome's corrupt Scriptures against the Received Text - the NT of the apostles, of the Waldenses, and of the Reformers. That Rome in EARLY days CORRUPTED the MSS.....Allix, the renowned scholar, testifies. He reports the following as Italic articles of faith: "They receive only, saith he, what is written in the Old and New Testament. They say, that the Popes of Rome, and other priests, have DEPRAVED the Scriptures by their DOCTRINES and GLOSSES" (Allix, Churches of Piedmont, pp. 288, 2). It is RECOGNIZED that the Italia was translated from the Received Text (Syrian, Hort calls it); that the Vugate is Itala with the readings of the Received Text REMOVED (Kenyon, Our Bible and the Ancient Manuscripts, pp. 169, 170). END QUOTE More to come on the Waldenses Bible and the work of Beza, Calvin, Olivetan, Dadoed, Luther, and the Reformation NT Bible. ................................................ Compiled 2003
