Tackling Gender-Based Violence
Gender-based violence affects millions around the world and prevents many people, the vast majority of whom are women, from reaching their full potential. It is one of the most pervasive but least recognised abuses of human rights. Ending gender-based violence is a central part of our work.
Gender-based violence (GBV) occurs in every country, in homes, streets and workplaces, and is particularly prevalent during times of conflicts and crises. The term is used to describe acts of sexual violence, physical violence and harmful traditional practices (such as female genital mutilation) that result in physical and psychological harm.
Women are primarily, but not exclusively, affected with an estimated one in every three women being beaten, coerced into sex or otherwise abused during her lifetime. GBV is rooted in gender inequality, both reflecting and reinforcing inequities between women and men.
The prevalence of GBV is particularly high at times of humanitarian emergencies, especially in armed conflict, when normal systems of protection are undermined. It is often used as a strategy to displace populations, instil fear, and control people.
The social, human, and economic costs of gender-based violence are a huge obstacle to reducing poverty today.
- It can affect the health and well-being of survivors with long-lasting physical and psychological effects.
- It often prevents girls from attending school as dangers are faced on the journey to school, with school itself often not a safe place.
- It is a key driver of the HIV pandemic.
- Fear of GBV inhibits women's participation.
What we do
Tackling gender-based violence is a priority for Irish Aid. We work with a range of government and civil society partners at community, national and international level to tackle both the causes and the effects of GBV and to ensure that policies are in place and are implemented. Our work aims to build awareness of the rights of women and expand women's roles in the economic, social and political spheres. It also seeks to engage men and boys on these issues.
Prevention though legislation
In our partner countries, we support a range of initiatives aimed at ending GBV, including efforts to enact legislation making GBV punishable by law. Legislation against GBV is now in place in the majority of our partner countries. For example, in 2010, gender-based violence was recognised as a crime by law in Timor Leste. The next challenge will be making sure that polices are put into practice. Civil society organisations (CSOs) are key partners in monitoring and strengthening accountability for commitments made.
We know that changing attitudes towards women is a proven way of breaking the cycle of poverty and violence but it is a long-term process.
Implementation in practice
We have provided funding for a programme in Uganda aimed at building the capacity of police, health workers and local government officials in how they work to prevent and respond to GBV. This programme is jointly implemented by government, aid agencies and a media production company.
During humanitarian crises
We recognise, in line with the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security, that women and men can be affected differently by conflict. In order to support our response to this resolution, Ireland has put in place a National Action Plan, part of which seeks to raise awareness of GBV in Ireland and in our work abroad.
The resolution is particularly relevant to our humanitarian work, which responds to the needs of those affected by emergencies, including conflict situations. One important piece of work in recent years has been the effort by humanitarian actors to challenge the myth that gender-based violence is an unavoidable part of conflict, thereby ensuring that efforts to tackle it are put in place.
We also support organisations that help survivors of gender-based violence. For example, we provided funding to the International Rescue Committee to support GBV survivors in the Dadaab refugee camps of Northern Kenya in 2011. We support Christian Aid Ireland which provides emergency assistance and support for vulnerable households in South Kivu, in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Through this support, victims of sexual violence have been provided with medical and psycho-social care as well as financial support.
Building alliances for action
Irish Aid is a member of the Irish Consortium on Gender Based Violence. The aim of the Consortium is to support members to build their capacity to design, implement, monitor and evaluate programmes to target GBV and to share learning and best practice

LinkedIn Stock Will Rebound, If They Invest In These 5 Features
I'm not sure that any investor of LinkedIn stock, including myself, ever expected the kind of sell off that happened on Friday. And while I'm certainly concerned about any investment shedding more than 40% of its value in a single day, my faith in LinkedIn's ability to provide tools to market to my target audience hasn't wavered. Although, if LinkedIn really wants investors to stick around for the long haul, then they need to improve their value proposition to marketers. Here are five features that would help LinkedIn achieve greater credibility with investors and deliver even more value to marketers.
1) Let users create group connections and lists in their personal Linkedin accounts.
This is an idea that I've been discussing with Elizabeth Clor, a former colleague, friend, and all-around LinkedIn enthusiast. LinkedIn features should enable users to group their customers, vendors, press, and potential partners into lists. This would make it easier to track the most relevant updates and posts in the news feed. Taking it a step further, contacts should be grouped by expertise. This would make it easier to reach out to the right connections when looking for input on a marketing or business development project.
2) Make LinkedIn search results more powerful.
LinkedIn Pulse content is fantastic, but the majority of Pulse content is not accessible to users, as there is no way to search for content created on this platform. For example, there may be other archived Pulse articles on LinkedIn that might be worth reading. But without a search tool, you presently do not have the ability to find them. LinkedIn should add Pulse content in the search box in the header or create a new search box just for Pulse content. Without knowing the in's and out's of how LinkedIn's search results algorithm works, this would require some version of providing additional "weight" to content elements like title, date, article tags, content type, category, and social engagement data to ensure that the results are relevant to users. Enabling search would provide a smoother user experience, and increase overall LinkedIn engagement.
3) Give more tools to LinkedIn group admins.
Some groups are getting more engagement than actual company pages. So why not allow the group admins more ways to advertise and promote their groups directly to their target audiences. This would accelerate conversations and allow the group admins the chance to grow their group in multiple ways.
4) Incorporate more video into the experience.
Video is already playing a larger role in a company's sales and marketing efforts. Engagement with video content on Facebook is exploding because tests are being conducted to see how users want to consume video content. Rather than having users click a play button on the thumbnails of posts in news feeds that then opens up into a video player, LinkedIn should be performing similar tests, like a bigger screen in the news feed, autoplaying video, or recommending videos that I should watch. The targeting on LinkedIn is already second to none, with the ability to hone in on job function, title, company, and skills. Delivering a fantastic video experience to any segment a marketer wants to target would be icing on the cake.
5) Let users personalize their profiles with video.
If LinkedIn profiles have changed the game for job search and sales, then LinkedIn features should further challenge the status quo and allow users to switch out their static profile headshots with video introductions. Creating an option to upload video gives users the ability to select the medium that's best suited for their style. For example, recruiters or hiring managers could share their experience, passion for the company, and management style before job candidates even have that first interview. Sales people, who rely on building connections with their customers, can do so immediately with a quick video introducing themselves and their background. The opportunities are endless.
I'm hopeful that some (or better yet, all) of these feature requests are already on LinkedIn's product roadmap. I'd love to hear your feedback on features that you think LinkedIn should prioritize in order to improve your experience.

Ka-ming Tang was impressed by the variety of destinations students can visit through #DMUglobal – the university's award-winning international experience programme.
Looking for a final-year project in his Graphic Design and Illustration course, he hit on the idea of a globe-trotting board game for young players.
Called Tripopoli, the game sets players chasing around the world – following a path across the colourful board – visiting iconic landmarks from across the globe.
Taking a toy car counter, players race to be the first to visit locations like Stonehenge, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Saint Basil's Cathedral.
Looking to study Graphic Design at DMU?See what DMU can offer you by visiting our next Open DaySee all our international opportunities through #DMUglobal
Starting from Adobe Illustrator, the 22-year-old designed the gaming board, the counters and the buildings, which are constructed from cardboard and set up on the board.
He said: "The most technical construction was probably the Eiffel Towel, that or the Empire State Building.
"But I was really happy with how they came out."
Having completed the designs, Ka-ming contacted a local printing firm, Full Square, which took on the project. He then took delivery of the finished game, including box.
He said: "That was an amazing moment. Just opening the box, getting the board out, putting the buildings together and having this thing in front of me which had really just been in my head."
He was inspired to create a board game because he remembered how much he enjoyed them when he was young.
He said: "There's something really sociable about board games, you always play them with your family at Christmas. I'm hoping there's still space in the market for them, even though technology has really moved on and kids play electronic games more often."
Having submitted the game – called Tripopoly – Ka-ming aced his final project, getting an A for the work. He is now looking for a designer to take on further production of the game.
He said: "I've got a few more ideas for games so I'm really keen to perhaps get some investment and see if I can get this into shops."

If you are in the market to rent a home in Rockdale, make sure to use a property management company to help you. Renting a home through a private owner may sound appealing but the truth is that it oftentimes cause more headaches than renters care to mention. Why is it so important that you use a property management rockdale tx company?
1. Professionalism is one thing that you can always expect when a property management company is there. They quickly respond to calls and emergencies, make fast repairs, and otherwise handle rentals in a professional manner.
2. An abundance of properties are available to rent when using a property management company. When you want options, a property management company gives you just what you need.
3. It's easier to rent a home through a property management company and far less time consuming as well. They handle their property rentals according to state laws and make life simple when nothing else is more important to you.
4. Property management renters endure fewer problems throughout their tenancy and report overall happier conditions in their home. When it's time to find a place to call home, nothing is more important than being comfortable and happy throughout the tenancy but a bad landlord can steer that in the other direction very quickly. Property managers make that much easier to achieve and reduce the hassles that you might experience.
The list of reasons to rent a home through a property management company is endless. The reasons above are among the many but certainly not a complete list. Make sure you get the home in Rockdale that you want and love and rent through a property management company. You will be happy with this decision!

CARDIGAN: Evy's Tree
This is probably the most comfy cardigan I have ever worn! I loveeeeeee the fabric!!! I'm that person who is ALWAYS cold. I guess being born and raised in Houston didn't help me much haha. I always tell Tyler that I think SoCal is too cold for me (I'm so embarrassing I know)! Anyway, so I'm also the person that has to bring a jacket or cardigan everywhere I go. I love the drawstrings on the side!! I have never seen a cardigan with this option. Because I was wearing a dress, I didn't want the cardigan hanging too low so I just pulled up the sides! So cool! The color is so beautiful and perfect for fall. All around a MUST!
Thanks for stopping by! ❤

In the News
An article recently written by the Los Angeles Times highlights Pope Francis' fifth visit to Latin America in January 2018 and his attempt to "recapture the soul of the Roman Catholic church." While the Church has been a traditionally powerful force in the region, it has been at the center of controvery over allegations of sexual abuse and misconduct. The Pontiff's anticipated visit was met with protests and reports of church attacks in the Chilean capital of Santiago. On April 26, the Boisi Center will host a panel with four distuingished guests to examine the Pope's first five years in the Vatican.

Usually the patent wars are between Samsung and Apple, at least that's what we and probably most of you are used to at this point. Those horrible trials and tribulations are over, we say horrible because we enjoyed them just about as much as you probably did, which was really not at all. This latest patent dispute however is not between Samsung and Apple. Samsung is involved, and they're being sued, but this time around Apple is nowhere in sight and the claimant is actually Nvidia. Samsung seems to have quite the easy time getting in the media over patent infringement, although instead of design this time around it's over Nvidia's graphics patents. Also included in the lawsuit is Qualcomm, a major manufacturer if mobile processors and quite possibly the biggest supplier to device OEM's globally, as well as Nvidia's biggest competitor when it comes to graphics processing. According to Nvidia, Qualcomm and Samsung are both infringing on their patents.
Which patents you ask? We can tell you, because we know you especially wish to know. First though, more on what Nvidia is seeking in regards to the infringement on their patents. They apparently want the blocking of so far what has been listed as a total of twelve different Samsung devices, which all include CPUs/GPUs that have at least some tech inside of them that infringe upon Nvidia's graphics patents. The idea behind seeking a ban in this case is just a means to an end, unlike with Apple who sought to have device sales banned completely and for good.
In this case Nvidia merely wants Samsung to pay them licensing fees, something that is totally reasonable if Samsung has actually infringed upon Nvidia's graphics patents in the first place. Unless Samsung pays these fees to Nvidia to license the tech apparently used, Nvidia is seeking a ban on the Galaxy Note, the Note Pro, Note 3, Tab S, Tab Pro, Tab 2, the Galaxy S III, Galaxy S 4, and the Galaxy S5, and lastly the Samsung Infuse 4G and the Samsung Illusion. According to Nvidia, Samsung and Qualcomm are infringing on patents related to unified shading, programmable shading, the concept of the dedicated GPU, and a GPU that includes multiheaded processing. Since Qualcomm makes chips for many more OEM's besides Samsung, they could be coughing up quite a bit in the end, on top of a likely long court battle.

The History
The family has worked hard to make certain that each vineyard will eventually produce wines, that reveal their own character: distinguished, elegant and worthy of each château and appellation.
In the Médoc the vines are situated in the communes of Jau, Dignac and Loirac.
In the Côtes de Bourg, an area which has seen vines grown since Roman times and whose fame was renowned well before their neighbours across the estuary, the family tends some 33h spread among various communes which give these wines their own character and expression.
The two Châteaux Haut Mousseau and Terrefort Bellegrave, although coming from the same appellation are quite distinct as Haut Mousseau is a wine to be consumed within 5-6 years , whereas the Terrefort Bellegrave, having passed through new oak barrels for at least 12 -18 months, can be kept for much longer, depending on the vintage of course.
In each of the two appellations the Briolais family has invested their time, hard work and above all passion and the desire to share this product with their clients.

In March 2016, Sasha Hood started having stomach cramps.
The unexpected can be the best thing to happen to you. She took some painkillers and went bed, even getting ready for work the next day. However, when she got home the pain was worse, so she made an appointment with her doctor for the following day.
She explained her symptoms to her doctor
She explained her symptoms to her doctor, who examined Sasha's stomach and seemed surprised. Sasha was worried at the look, but then? "I was shocked when she said she was referring me to the maternity unit."
Doctors said she was about 28 to 32 weeks pregnant, making Sasha and Marc all the more baffled that they didn't know she had been pregnant all this time.
Sasha called her husband Marc.
They had talked about starting a family but not for a few years. Sasha was still on the pill and still getting regular periods. She never noticed a baby bump, but she had experienced some weight gain, though she blamed it on eating out so much.
After the pain eased, doctors sent Sasha home.
After only a few hours, the pain returned and was even worse than before. Sasha took a bath to help ease the pain, but then she ended up on the bathroom floor. She was in agony with the urge to push.
But within a few hours the pains returned with a vengeance. As Sasha cried out in agony, Marc dialled 999.
Marc called paramedics and grabbed towels while telling Sasha help was on the way.
Within 15 minutes, Sasha had given birth. However, the baby wasn't crying. "It was a frightening moment as Marc and I realized the cord was round the baby's neck.
"Luckily Marc followed all the instructions from the paramedic on the phone and managed to free Theo. Hearing him finally cry was wonderful."
As Marc wrapped baby Theo in a blanket, the paramedics arrived.
The couple was completely shocked to suddenly be parents, but Theo was perfectly healthy and almost four days overdue.
They named their baby Theo because it means "gift of God" in Greek.
"Even though we were totally unprepared, we are so happy to have Theo. We both still look back and can't believe we didn't know we were having a baby."
Sasha's and Marc's moms had to rush out the night Theo was born to buy baby stuff, since the couple obviously hadn't had time to prepare.
Now, Sasha and Marc are loving parenthood.
In just one day, they went from finding out they were expecting a baby to being parents. Sasha is sad that she missed out on announcing her pregnancy, ultrasound pictures, a baby shower, feeling the first kick, etc, but she is just thankful Theo is healthy.
"He is absolutely adorable and now we can't imagine life without him."

Thank you for feeding Haiti's hungry children!
Thanks to you, these children will not starve. Last week more than 11,500 meals were provided to the hungry children of La Vallée. The supply truck is returning to Jacmel to restock rice, beans, and cooking oil for the schools. While prices are rising as supplies shrink, the team in Haiti so far has successfully located suppliers in and around Jacmel. They then distribute the food from a central location in Ridore to the principals of each school.
The students are again in school and getting back to their routines. Some schools are struggling with extensive damage, and all schools lost critical supplies. But they are providing a hot meal, a warm community and a safe space for learning.
Food scarcity will be a continuing problem until crops can be replanted and harvested in the spring. The team is consulting with the mayor and local leaders to assess critical needs and figure out the best way to restore gardens and food production.
It costs $2500 a week to feed 2300 students at 8 schools.

Timeline of Truth: The Horrific Loss of Doing What Is Right in One's Own Eyes (Judges 19:29-20:48) – Part 2: Ruthless ViolenceWednesday, April 3rd, 2019
Very dark days continue in Israel. We are taken from a display of rampant immorality to civil war and ruthless violence. Man's ideas do not lead to God's results. The Levite whose concubine is ravaged (to which he was an accomplice, having offered her in his stead) takes his now dead wife and dismembers her into 12 parts, and sends these parts to the 12 tribes of Israel. The horrified tribes assemble to find out the nature of this gruesome message. The Levite misrepresents the account to eliminate his own guilt, and in the process initiates what turns out to be a civil war. The 11 tribes seek to bring justice, and many die on both sides. God often allows great pain and death to bring us to our senses. The 11 tribes go beyond justice and ruthlessly destroy the tribe of Benjamin. Our revenge will not deal with offenses in a godly, just way, and it will only cause greater damage.

How To Stain Your Deck
You may be utilizing these long summer days by taking on extra household projects and tackling them yourself. You'll save money this route and learn new skills, however, it's always good to be educated and prepared before taking on any project. If you're considering a revitalized look and feel to your back deck, then consider these simple steps below that will guide you through the process to a beautiful end result!
- Clean the deck surface before applying any stain. If there are any marks, dirt on the deck, the stain may not stick to those areas and it could peel. Start by sweeping off your deck, then do a clean wash to remove the extra layer of dirt and marks.
- Apply cleaner to the deck. You can do this a few different ways – either roll on the cleaner or you can spray on the cleaner. Whichever method you choose, make sure that the wood stays wet while the wood is soaking up the cleaner.

- Use a roller or a brush to apply the stain. If you do choose a roller, you may want to follow-up with a brush to ensure that the stain is applied fully and set in.
- If one coat is not enough, apply a second coat of stain. It's best to wait at least four hours after the first coat has been applied before layering with a second coat. And be sure to wait at least 24 hours before walking or placing objects back on the deck to make sure it's completely dry!

India's economy is expected to grow at around 5.5 per cent in the current financial year to March 31, 2015, according to the Mid-Year Economic Review tabled by the finance ministry in the Parliament on Friday.
The forecast is in line with Reserve Bank of India's estimates of GDP growth for the fiscal 2014-15 and if the prediction materialises, it would mark an improvement from two successive years of below 5 per cent growth.
In the first six months of the 2014-15 financial year, India grew at 5.5 per cent on a year-on-year basis.
The government sees the current RBI policy 'historically tight' and expects no changes in the interest rates till March this fiscal.
Last month, the finance minister Arun Jaitley had expressed his concerns over the high cost of capital and said that if RBI lowers the cost of capital by bringing down interest rates, it would provide a "good fillip" to the economy.
"The momentum of headline inflation is showing a staggering decline...Inflation fall is not just due to base effect. Government role in inflation check is somewhat under-recognised," the review said. The retail inflation is expected to be in range of 5.1-5.8 per cent in next five quarters, the review stated.
The government is also of the view that investment is yet to pick up significantly and there is a need to speed up clearances for stalled projects.
Also, as per the report, tax revenue collections are below expectations and the full year tax growth is weaker than expected. "Budget is unduly burdened by deferred expenditure," it added. Moreover, the government has pegged current account deficit at around 2 per cent with slump in oil prices offsetting higher gold imports.
In October, the World Bank had predicted that the Indian economy may grow at the rate of 5.6 per cent this fiscal, is likely to rise further to 6.4 per cent and 7 per cent in FY16 and FY17, respectively.
The mid-year review is based on the trend study of receipts and expenditure in relation to the budget at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2015.

macOS Integrations
Contrary to popular belief, Apple and Windows products can work well together.
If you need to integrate Apple products into a Windows environment, call Brightsource IT.
Mac users say Apple products offer user-friendly options, whereas Windows users say their OS is utilitarian and more widely used. As a partner of both, we are here to set the record straight.
MacBooks, iPhones, and iPads are easy to use and intuitive, especially for people who have them for personal use. But most business hardware and software are Windows based, and it isn't a simple or seamless integration when you want to introduce your Apple products into this environment. It takes an IT professional that has done this sort of thing before, and many consultants simply cannot (or do not) support Macs or iOS devices.
Not so with Brightsource IT. As an Apple and Microsoft partner, we have integrated Macs into Windows environments for over a decade. Our technicians are experts at Mac integration basics and advanced techniques. We have seen all the possible hangups and pitfalls that come with something like this, and our goal is to create a technological space that allows Windows and Apple products to work in harmony.
This doesn't stop at initial integration. The key to dealing with these devices from different companies is proper fleet management over time so that the employees that use these devices are sufficiently supported.

Also, bear in mind that without appropriate and consistent lip care your lips wont stay pink. So here are 10 beauty tips for lips that tell you how to get pink lips naturally.
1. Stay moisturized for glossier lips
Did you know that your lips also contain a small amount of sebum? Which is why moisturizing them with petroleum jelly, lip balm or coco butter is essential.

Grind a handful of pomegranate seeds and mix them with some milk cream. Apply this mixture to your lips regularly and watch them become pinker and fuller too.
3. Cucumber juice helps to remove dead skin from the lips

4. Rose petals and milk moisturize your skin naturally
Soak a few rose petals in a bowl of milk for a while. Then take out the petals, add a few drops of honey and glycerine to them and then grind them into a paste. Now apply the paste on your lips and youre done!
5. Lemon juice helps to lighten your lip's shade
Cut a thin slice of lemon and sprinkle some sugar on it. Now, rub that sugary slice on your lips and soon enough, your lips will begin to lighten. How? Well, lemon is an excellent natural bleaching agent while the sugar, in this case, helps to exfoliate all the dead skin cells.

Nina is turning into a little bookworm in her own right, and I've long been thinking about sharing some of her favourite books here, the ones she requests night after night, day after day even if we've already returned them to the library, or just finished reading it seconds before.
This Christmas I've been trying to give books more than anything because for me it's just the gift that gives and gives. Especially picture books, which are more expensive than I was preparing for when I started amassing Nina's huge collection. Before I realized that the rotating Canada Post strike would change my plans I thought about doing a book advent calendar for Nina, but the books didn't make it in time so giant pile of books under the tree it is! In any case, here are five fantastic bedtime books for toddlers or young children, give them, get them, love them.
Jazz Baby by Lisa Wheeler, illustrated by Gregory Christie
An entire family scats, sings, taps their youngest member into a sleepy frame of mind. The illustrations are really beautiful and Nina particularly loves the rhythm and rhyme of this story along with the many family members present who she names after our own. The very last page is the baby going to sleep deep, deep, deep—Oh yeah—her favourite line to mimic as drawn out as possible. Lisa Wheeler and Gregory Christie are a winning team, would love to see more from the combo.
Prince & Knight by Daniel Haack, illustrated by Steve Lewis
In this rhyming fairytale a handsome prince and brave knight team up to defeat a terrifying dragon using only their wits and end up falling in love in the process. The prince, in line for the throne had met a number of willing maidens but he knew something wasn't quite right, when he finds his knight all the pieces fall into place and his parents and the entire kingdom are overjoyed by their love and celebrate their wedding. I love this story and so does Nina, the illustrations are bright and detailed, the rhyming almost perfect. I think it's important to show her that all love should be celebrated, that it's as wonderful for two princes or princesses to find love together as it is for anyone. Hopefully it's one small step in realizing she can love whoever she wants when she gets older too and that that love will be beautiful and worth celebrating.
We live by a train station and since she was a baby Nina has been fascinated with trains. This is her most requested book when I'm the one to put her to bed. A rhyming story of a night train and the animals who load its freight at each stop—ice cream treats, toys and balls, sand, dinosaurs, and rolling beds to snooze in. Each page has a fair amount of words on it, so depending on her attention span I read a few lines only or the entire story, the story works either way which is awesome. The pictures are sleepy, dark and fun and the whole thing ends with a quiet chhhh chhh chhh goodnight.
Snuggle Bunny by Emma Goldhawk, illustrated by Jonathan Lambert
This is my husband's favourite book to read with Nina before bed, armed with a fluffy bunny puppet and interactive activities like brushing its ears and giving it a bedtime hug, Nina might love this book most of all. At the end of the book she likes to give it a kiss and tuck it away for the night. A very simple concept with great payoff.
This has been one of Nina's ride or die bedtime books since I bought it for her on a whim before her dinosaur themed birthday. She loves everything dinosaur and this book with its fun illustrations and simple rhyme scheme (which unfortunately is repeated almost exactly in every other book they write, not exactly original) really appeals to both us and her. It's a fun book to do voices and actions too and it's not too long. The illustrations have some fun things hidden in them like each dinosaurs name so I can see it having a lot of growth too and sticking around in our bedtime routine for years.

She was difficult to photograph in the low light because she didn't want to hold still. Although she did stop and stare into the lens a couple of times with a questioning look on her face.

No idea who the dude/dudes is/are i.e. SoundCloud auto played this track after I'd finished listening to one of the solo submissions:
Figured it's really good enough to give him/them a punt.
Like the idea of the "Moonshine/Country/Hillbilly" intro. and then on to "you know what"!!! LOL!!!
Nice tone. Good mix. Timing a bit out in places. Still. Nice sound first thing in the morning!!! LOL!!!
Carry on.

I recently caught up with TGR ripper Angel Collinson. We asked her about her relationship with music in the mountains and for her favorite riding tracks. Be sure to check out Angel in TGR's new ski flick Almost Ablaze. Words Angel Collinson.
I went through a time were I was just using an iPod shuffle while skiing. I always try to listen to music when I ski when the situation allows. It really helps me find my flow. There is a rhythm of your music that syncs with the rhythm of your turns. Things are flying by you. It really helps to calm down your inner chatter. There is always a time where your mind wanders and you wonder what to I have to do next. Music replaces that inner chatter and gives you this energetic vibration you can tune into. For me it helps elevate my body to a place it would not be before.
When I was only using a shuffle I was having a lot of problems with my skiing. I was going through a funk. I realized that I like to listen so many different kinds of music and a lot of time it depends on a variety of conditions. What I'm feeling on day, the weather, and what the snow is like will dictate what I listen to. Then I got one of those 160 GB iPods and since then my skiing and music relationship has gotten a lot better.

General anesthesia is usually safe and works as intended, putting the patient in a sedated state that allows doctors to operate without patients ever feeling or remembering it. Unfortunately, that isn't the case for everyone. About one in 1000 experiences the truest example of a waking nightmare.
Anesthesia awareness is when a patient wakes up in the middle of the operation but is still paralyzed by the effects of the anesthesia. This means that they sometimes are able to feel everything without being able to make it stop or alert the roomful of doctors and nurses standing over them.
The effects of anesthesia, contrary to popular belief, have very little in common with sleeping. The human brain is actually in its most active state when a person is sleeping, but when they are under general anesthesia, the brain is suspended and operates at a minimal level.
Doctors aren't really sure why this is, but they believe that it helps to explain why some people experience anesthesia awareness. They believe that there is some kind of interference that disturbs the transmission of chemicals across the membranes of the brain. The phenomenon is a subject of ongoing research.
Dr. Alexander Hannenberg, one of the researchers, also notes that human error or equipment malfunction is also likely causes of anesthesia awareness. People with histories of alcohol or drug abuse are more at risk, as are patients with heart or lung problems.

New York (TADIAS) — Below is a great Twitter thread that clears up the confusion on The Hague Teff ruling. In fact the court case was between two companies. The patent holder was suing another company who wanted to use teff products. The second company argued that the patent was invalid to begin with because it failed to show how the patent was itself an innovation. The court then ruled against the patent holder. We can see how Fitsum Arega's tweet was indicating the invalidation of the patent holder's claim and how that is in essence a win for Ethiopia in general. But his tweet was also vague and implied that the Ethiopian government directly won an argument in court, which it hasn't. So we'll keep an eye on developments. In the meantime here is the Twitter thread started by Legal Consultant and journalist ልዩ – Leyou @anchihoye and a link to a comprehensive summary by the website Quartz Africa as well as The Washington Post.
Alright, after the very unneeded confusion on #teff patent today, I've decided to do a long thread to make it clear to everyone what exactly happened!!! #Thread #Ethiopia
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
So the @fitsumaregaa tweeted this morning a link to the Dutch Court decision related to #teff patent infringement. The dispute was brought by Ancientgrain claiming ownership of patent : NL 1023977 & NL 1023977, see pics #Ethiopia pic.twitter.com/6XMs6btFd8
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
Patent NL 977 covers processing ripened Teff and NL 978 covers flour blend composition. The "inventor" named in both patents is Jans Roosjen. #Ethiopia #Teff
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
If that name, Jans Roosjen, sounds familiar is because it's the same name that has been written about re: Dutchman claims Teff articles, such as https://t.co/pnE2eAEOqU #Teff #Ethiopia
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
So, the Dutch Court has declared that Bakels, the company that was sued by Ancientgrain for having infringed on #Teff patents, defend itself saying that it did not infringe because the patents are not valid as it lacks inventiveness. Court agreed. Unofficial translation below pic.twitter.com/K6rtNYlbWT
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
The below is the claim that Ancientgrain bright against Bakels and Millet (Bakels #Teff supplier), stating that the patent right has been infringed. Again, the decision of the court pretty much says the 2 patents invalid, due to lack of inventiveness. pic.twitter.com/ejxK9rlIeC
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
1. The decision is a basis for to be scrapped off in Netherlands
2. Since NL. 978 was only active in Netherlands, it's DEAD!!!
(2 more below) #Ethiopia #Teff
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
3. NL 977(processing flour)exists in France,Germany,Japan, Spain + EU patent. It's a matter application enforcement of Dutch Court decision in those countries
4.#Ethiopia should not start new suit, rather approach Bakels & look into "how to apply for invalidation in EU countries"
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
For #Ethiopia to start a new case against Health & Performance Food International, the original company that took the patent would be a waste of resources, you know why?
Look closely at who the current assignee is on the patents in France, Germany, EU patent pic.twitter.com/N07d4zxn87
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
Yep, no point of fighting when someone else has done it for you! #theend, I think!
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 6, 2019
Thanks for this! Also found this super helpful https://t.co/z5viM9SZGO Looks like patent will expire soon anyhow. But lesson is for gov to come up with comprehensive protection policies for local companies. No more unreserved faith in foreign inst.
— Iyob Gebremariam (@IyobG) February 7, 2019
Excellent thread. I'm adding something here…someone familiar with Dutch law says that the appeals period with patent rulings is 3 months…not the standard 6 weeks. The patent was cancelled not because appeals period expired but actually…because apparently,
— Zecharias Zelalem (@ZekuZelalem) February 6, 2019
Roosjen and co. made it clear in writing that they would not appeal. Which means they have probably realized that this is an unwinnable fight. More reasons to pursue the company until the end.
— Zecharias Zelalem (@ZekuZelalem) February 6, 2019
So, can you ask your EU IP expert if Bakels decision can be brought directly before EU IPO(intellectual property office) to invalidate the EU patent?
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 7, 2019
I'll get back to you on that.
— Zecharias Zelalem (@ZekuZelalem) February 7, 2019
Thank you. And 1 more, if the invalidation of the 1st Patent, which served as a basis for the granting of subsequent patents, creates a domino effect for their invalidation?
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 7, 2019
I think I will end up putting you in touch with people linked to the case, I feel like I'll mistranslate some legal jargon and butcher the message between legal professionals.
— Zecharias Zelalem (@ZekuZelalem) February 7, 2019
Haha! Thanks! I'll do research online in the meantime
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 7, 2019
Please unpack the potential prospects, challenges, and the way forwards in non-technical terms
— Gizachew Tessema (@Giz_tessema) February 7, 2019
Will do, waiting to speak to an EU patent expert first.
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 7, 2019
@ZekuZelalem and @anchihoye thanks so much for the clarification.
— Samuel Alemayehu (@SamuelYeferu) February 7, 2019
Great explanation @anchihoye @fitsumaregaa should read your thread and correct his tweet as it has gained the wrong media attention globally… #Teff #Ethiopia
— Isaias Lemma (@IsaiasLemma) February 7, 2019
Mr Fitsum had stated the facts correctly: a Dutch court has handed down its verdict. No less, no more. This embassy has confirmed the court's decision.
— NL Embassy Ethiopia (@NLinEthiopia) February 7, 2019
I believe that the confusion from that tweet is that ppl are understanding the case at the Hague was won by Ethiopia or friends of Ethiopia, which in fact is not the case, and is how it is being reported on the news (Fana, EBC, LTV etc…).
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 7, 2019
Exactly my point! I hope Ethiopia wins it effectively soon!!
— Isaias Lemma (@IsaiasLemma) February 7, 2019
So I understand from Dutch newspaper: 1. The Hague Court only court in Netherlands competent to issue a verdict in patent cases 2. Dutch Patent Agency sided with Bakels 3. Bakels considering bringing cases against the patent in Belgium; Germany; UK; Austria and Italy.
— joost heij (@joost_heij) February 7, 2019
This is FANTASTIC news!!!! #teff #Ethiopia Can you please share the news article in Dutch, English, or both. https://t.co/vBo4wJj4Rx
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 7, 2019
According to this article below, the patent attorney of Bakels (@BakelsSeniorNV ) Wannes Weymiens, says they will challenge the patents in Belgium, Germany, the United Kingdom, Austria and Italy where it is still valid based on the Dutch Court decision. #Teff #Ethiopia https://t.co/J42WRRus0V
— ልዩ – Leyou (@anchihoye) February 7, 2019
If this is in fact the case, it means that the Attorney General of #Ethiopia would only have to make an application before the Japanese courts for invalidation of the patent as the other company is taking care of the EU ones. The AG should reach out to Bakels @joost_heij @GMirafe

How Ethiopia got its grain back
Ethiopia's teff flour is no longer patented as a Dutch invention

Biggest decision for current Queanbeyan Council with $100 million pricetag
"A victory for common sense" and for real community consultation after five years of top down and 'done deal' communication from council about the proposed Edwin Land Parkway and Ellerton Drive (EDE) extensions.
That was the verdict from some of the 100 residents who packed the council chamber and overflowed into the foyer at the February council meeting.
They'd come to hear the vote on a motion proposing that council in March and early April publicise and hold a community forum to review the decision to build this road and examine other real options, with the road architects present to answer questions
The motion in the end passed unanimously after an argumentative start to the evening between residents, Mayor Tim Overall presiding and some councillors
The current council concept is that the roadways would allow growing Googong township traffic to reach the Yass Rd and the ACT by a new route.
The majority position at the February meeting – supported by councillors Cregan, Whelan, Burfoot, Winchester, Brown and Trajanoski – conceded that the process of community engagement (and maybe other aspects) may have been flawed ever since the 2009 traffic study that decided the EDE was 'the' solution and it was promoted to the community as a bypass.
Councillors said they had listened to an unexpected flood of community submissions between December and February.
"The major concern is that people feel they have not been listened to," said Councillor Sue Whelan, speaking against a mayoral minute that would have held a community forum after council put together a 'determination report'. "That's absolutely different from holding the forum ahead of time and including the feedback.
"We are not following process properly and ending up with an unhappy community," she said. "We have had five years to do all this."
Councillor Judith Burfoot said," there is clearly a mismatch between what council considers consultation and what the community considers consultation."
Councillor Toni McLennan, (along with Councillors Peter Bray and Trudy Taylor) supported the mayoral motion by Tim Overall which lost 6-4. McLennan made a later statement saying she felt the Council staff was being demonised.
Proposal to cost alternative Dunns Creek Road dismissed
At the beginning of the meeting, a motion to cost the alternative route was ruled out of order. Councillor Brian Brown's motion asked that a priority should be the costing and design for Dunns Creek Rd and that dedicated funds for this purpose (that had apparently been appropriated elsewhere) be reinstated.
The motion was ruled out of order on the basis that it had been 'negatised' (yes they really apply such language) ie voted down in December and that it could not come back for three months without three councillors supporting it. When Winchester suggested three councillors could support it right then and there, that was ruled out of order too.
Speaking to his forum motion Cregan said it was in response to lots of commentary on the EDE and that it was clearer that this road would not solve the problems of the CBD. "There are lots of questions that need to be answered", he said. Even he has not gained access to the traffic engineers to ask questions, he said.
Winchester said that since this would be the biggest decision make by the current council with a pricetag approaching $100 million, "we have to be 100 percent certain" that destroying the natural environment and people's amenity is justified.
He also noted that the recent information sessions and survey by council (during the public exhibition phase from December to February) were (as always) based on the assumption that the road is a 'done deal'. He said it should be presented as a 'proposed road'. (Big claps from the residents present).
In 900 or so submissions from current residents and supporters, councillors were advised to rethink the road. A recurrent theme is that the cost of this road, economically, socially and environmentally, outweighs any benefits for Queanbeyan's traffic issues with further growth. On existing evidence it makes no sense.
Residents have been asking for some time: why is the plan going ahead despite proposing to afflict 1/3 of Queanbeyan suburbs with noise and new traffic, destroy the city's bushland and compromise the river corridor and even threaten children's safety in the case of Jerrabomberra?
