My experience with Catholic Recruiter Associates was an exceptional and highly professional journey. The attention, counsel and direction from Mr. Lynch and Dr. McSweeney were helpful and supportive from the initial contact to the post hiring process. Communication and support standards were outstanding and availability of the staff was second to none.
With extensive experience in the use and application with a multitude of consulting firms, I offer my highest and enthusiastic recommendations for this firm. This firm is the best that I have encountered. No greater praise may I offer. If you want the BEST– look no further.
We had the opportunity of Patrick Lynch’s expertise and his personal gifts to come to understand and work with the mission of Mt. Irenaeus and our core personnel. His communications with me and others were especially helpful as we moved into and completed the process of finding an Executive Director. Pat is obviously a seasoned professional who listens well and with our particularly unique mission and practice was able to find a pool of excellent candidates and move us to the completion of our search in a very efficient and effective way.

Tux Paint is a free drawing program designed for young children (kids ages 3 and up). It has a simple, easy-to-use interface, fun sound effects (annoy the boss), and an encouraging (annoying?) cartoon mascot who helps guide children as they use the program.
It provides a blank canvas and a bunch of drawing tools to help your inner child be creative.
Best of all, it’s available for Windows, Mac, and some *NIX and Linux distros. Plus, it works on slower machines and thin-client computers for those schools that can’t afford the latest hardware. Nifty!
This one is a download and install job. Your IT support people may get annoyed… offer them chocolate.

Billing itself as the Outdoor Recreation Capital of Canada, Squamish is located on the Sea-to-Sky Highway about half way between Whistler and Vancouver.
Squamish is a community of about 17,000. There isn’t a lot to see in the town itself, but there are exceptional places to visit and outdoor recreational things to do in the area.
Squamish calls itself the “Outdoor Recreation Capital of Canada”, and for good reason. The region is world famous for mountain biking and hiking, as well as both snowmobiling and back-country skiing in the winter. The town is also well-known in the summer for wind and kite surfing around Squamish Spit.
Driving from Vancouver, just before you reach Squamish, there is beautiful Shannon Falls (which is great for photos, a walk and picnics) and Stawamus Chief (which is a giant granite rock mountain that’s excellent for climbing, with routes for experts as well as for regular folk who want a challenge).
The waterfalls are a sight to see, being one of BC’s highest, and the view from the top of the Stawamus Chief is absolutely stunning and well worth the climb (from the easier back route, not the one straight up the cliffs at the front). Right close by too is the Sea to Sky Gondola, in case you don’t want to walk up to see the views.
One interesting tourist attraction that’s more or less right in Squamish is the West Coast Railway Heritage Park. This is Western Canada’s largest collection of heritage trains and railway equipment, so a good place to visit if you like trains and history.
Another place with historical buildings and interesting large-scale pieces of equipment is the Britannia Mine Museum. It’s just a few minutes away (back towards Vancouver) and includes a train ride underground into the mine.
If you like the outdoors, or if you’re on your way somewhere up the Sea to Sky Highway, then Squamish and its surrounding area is a good place to visit (if not to stay, then at least for a coffee and fill up of gas).
Excellent campgrounds not too far away include Paradise Valley (on the Cheakamus River towards Brackendale), Alice Lake Provincial Park (which is also popular for canoeing, swimming and fishing) and Porteau Cove (which is right on the ocean).
If you are in the Squamish area between mid-November and mid-February and you like bird watching, then check out Brackendale Eagles Provincial Park which is world famous for bald eagles in the winter.
Canada Day – July 1st in Squamish features a short morning parade and then live music, a beer garden and festival activities until late at night.
KiteClash – the Canadian Freestyle Kiteboarding Championships at Squamish Spit in early July.
Squamish Days Loggers Sports Festival – a community festival celebrating the local logging industry during the first few days of August over the BC Day Long Weekend.
Squamish Farmers Market – a great weekly farmers market that takes place at the corner of Cleveland Avenue and Victoria on Saturdays from 10 am until 3 pm from April until October.
Squamish Street Market – a once-a-month summer all-day Saturday market on Cleveland Avenue in the summer.
Squamish Wind Festival – an arts festival in late July.
The Polar Express – a special Christmas-themed event based on the animated movie The Polar Express at the West Coast Railway Heritage Park in late November and December.

Wolferth Trauma Center, the annual event was presented by The Trauma Center Directors of Greater Philadelphia for the 22nd Charles C. Wolferth Jr. Oration. More than 100 people attended the event, including physicians, surgeons, pre-hospital providers, nurses, residents and students.
This year’s keynote speaker was Mark A. Malingoni, MD, associate executive director of the American Board of Surgery. Dr. Malingoni’s presentation was, “How Should We Be Training Surgeons.” Each of the 16 trauma centers in the Philadelphia region highlighted a clinical case that demonstrated heroic lifesaving skills, sound clinical and operative judgment, as well as excellent multi-disciplinary teamwork. Each case presentation was critiqued by a panel of experts in the field of trauma, addressing social, economic, and therapeutic aspects of care and overall patient outcomes.
As part of the judging process, PGY-4 resident Dane Scantling, DO, MPH, Department of Surgery at Drexel University College of Medicine, received a very respectable third place in this year’s regional competition.

What Do Employees Really Want in a Job?
The most common reason for liking a job: respect for managers, flexible hours, and hard-working colleagues. Note, money was not a big factor.
Most common reason for not liking a job: bad management, bad working conditions and pay. Since the pay was similar at jobs people like, one could assume that money matters more when other factors are missing.
Most common reason for choosing a current job: it was close to home. Forget company advancement potential, and all that. Location matters most to most employees. This is a good point when marketing for new employees.
The second most frequently cited reason was flexibility of hours. Note: only one person out of 250 mentioned learning a trade as a reason for taking a job.
Most reasons for wanting to leave the job: a better job, more money.
What most people like least about the jobs: customers! Remember we are talking entry-level positions. The number of trade’s people I have dealt with over the last few weeks attest to this result!

Working in conjunction with its strong partner network, Kingsbridge covers the broadest range of industry sectors in its market, including aerospace, banking and finance, rail, automotive, nuclear, oil and gas and information technology. Kingsbridge is headquartered in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, with offices in Liverpool and Guernsey.
When we invested, Kingsbridge had two distinct parts to the business, a traditional corporate insurance broker and a newer contractor insurance side which could offer a single policy of insurance to a freelance contractor. This enabled Kingsbridge to take advantage of a trend in the UK workforce moving from employed to self-employed.
Livingbridge invested in Kingsbridge in 2014 to help them to develop their product offering and accelerate growth.
Kingsbridge made key additions to their senior team including a finance director and chairman, both of whom Livingbridge had worked with previously, as well as introducing a new COO.
During the two years of the investment Kingsbridge more than doubled in size, trebled its profits and at exit boasted revenues of almost £7 million.

If you've ever exaggerated your work expenses to get a bigger income tax return, then you might have contributed to the Federal Government's $8.7 billion loss in 2014-15.
The Tax Office (ATO) has calculated what's known as "the tax gap" for individual taxpayers, which is the discrepancy between the amount of tax that should have been paid and what was actually paid.
The $8.7 billion figure has surprised many tax professionals, who believe it reveals the hidden cost of people hiding their cash incomes, fudging their expenses or lying about rental income.
The Institute of Public Accountants believes the figure is "a wake-up call" and the peak body CPA Australia says the amount of lost revenue is "enormous".
"When you compare it to multinational tax avoidance, where the figure is about $2.5 billion, it's some three times larger … that was really a surprise," CPA Australia's head of tax policy Paul Drum said.
The ATO's deputy commissioner, Alison Lendon, says the multi-billion-dollar loss is primarily due to people making simple and avoidable mistakes in their tax returns.
About 9.3 million Australians lodged a personal income tax return in 2014-15 and Ms Lendon says many small mistakes made can quickly add up to billions of dollars in lost revenue.
Ski holidays, Maltese terriers and streaming services; taxpayers have tried to claim all manner of expenses in the past, but the ATO is ready to clamp down this year.
Almost three-quarters of the 858 cases examined in the ATO's audit contained errors or deductions people were not entitled to.
While some of $8.7 billion loss can be dismissed as simple errors, Ms Lendon says some people are deliberately committing fraud to ensure they get a better tax return.
"There is evidence in the community of people obviously wanting to get a big refund and a way to do that is looking at what expenses they can claim," Ms Lendon said.
"There is also a group that we have seen through our random audit work that are more deliberate in their overclaiming and quite aggressive."
Mr Drum said he was also surprised that professional accountants were more likely to have made errors than people submitting returns themselves.
The ATO is worried that some agents may be deliberately falsifying documents to ensure their clients get larger returns, and to continue to do business with them.
Ms Lenson said the Tax Office would take harsh action against accountants found to be negligent.
"Particularly when we look at those we consider high risk, that is where they are deliberately overclaiming and sometimes falsifying documents," Ms Lendon said.
"We take a harsh view on them, as the community expects."
CPA Australia's Paul Drum said people expect integrity from tax agents and often paid them because they wanted to make sure they were complying with the law.
"It raises the question whether [tax agents] are asking all the relevant questions of the client in the first place and whether more work should be done there," Mr Drum said.
But Tony Greco from the Institute of Public Accountants said tax agents often rely on incorrect information provided by their clients.
"Sometimes agent prepared returns are based on client assertions and agents are not required to audit all of their assertions," he told the ABC.
Mr Wood said the $8.7 billion was an estimate at best and not a surprise, given so many people lodged tax returns.
"The surprising aspect is the fact it is much larger than the corporate [tax gap]," he said.
Ms Lendon has also issued a warning to those who may deliberately fudge their returns, foreshadowing more audits and preventative action.
The revenue office has recently received a $130 million funding boost, which Ms Lendon says will help the agency address compliance issues and tackle fraud.
At the moment, the Tax Office recoups about $500 million a year in lost revenue. It expects to increase that to about $750 million a year over the next four years.
"We will be doing more audits so our actual coverage and interaction across the whole individual system is going to increase quite considerably this year," Ms Lendon said.
"We are expecting to touch at least 1 million people through the work we are doing."

Talking to TNIE, Bhagat termed dissolution of Assembly on November 21 as 'unconstitutional and undemocratic.
SRINAGAR: In an unexpected turn of events in the Valley, disgruntled BJP leader and former MLA Dr Gagan Bhagat has moved Supreme Court challenging the dissolution of State Assembly by Governor Satya Pal Malik. Terming the Governor a "liar", he said there is no Muslim cook at Raj Bhavan in Jammu from the last 30 years and there is no question of a cook not being available in the Governor house on Eid.
Talking to this newspaper, Bhagat termed dissolution of Assembly on November 21 as "unconstitutional and undemocratic".
"I have moved Supreme Court against the dissolution of the Assembly. The Apex Court will see what is right and wrong, as every fact has to be laid bare before the court," he said, adding that people would come to know about the flimsy ground on which the Assembly was dissolved.
Bhagat, who was a BJP MLA from R S Pura, said he could have also moved the high court.
"But then, I realised nothing would come of it, as the (high) court would sit on my plea," he said.
Saying that the apex court would begin hearing the case in the next few days, Bhagat said, "I am hopeful that justice will be done."
Asked whether he has support of the BJP, he said, "I am not concerned about the party. The day the Assembly was dissolved, we were no longer MLAs".
"I am accountable to people of my constituency, who voted me as their representative for six years," he said.
The Governor dissolved J&K Assembly on November 21 after PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti and BJP's ally and separatist-turned-mainstream politician Sajjad Gani Lone staked claims to forming the government. Mehbooba had claimed support of 56 members, while Sajjad claimed support of the BJP and over 16 other elected MLAs.
Taking a dig at the Governor, Bhagat said, "He (Malik) should have tested the legitimacy of the claims on government formation on the floor of the house instead of acting on rumours of horse trading, non functioning of fax and cook not available at Raj Bhavan in Jammu on Eid."
"If Assembly was in suspended animation for five months, why wasn't status quo extended for the few more days? What was the need to dissolve the Assembly in the dead of night," he said.
The former BJP MLA said people had given legislators mandate of 6 years and Governor cannot act as autocratic and dissolve the Assembly.
In J&K, the term of an Assembly lasts for six years.
Referring to Governor's claim that there was no cook on Eid day (November 21) at Rajbhavan in Jammu, he said, "It is not true. The Governor is telling a lie. The fact is that there is no Muslim cook in Rajbhavan Jammu from past 30 years."
"When Governor, who is head of the state, tells a lie, it indicates that there are malfide intention behind this all," Bhagat said.
Accusing Malik of enjoying powers of CM for five months, he said, "By dissolving the Assembly, it has become more clear that he wanted to become a CM than a Governor to run the state. He enjoyed the powers".
Bhagat said what is guarantee that if fresh elections are held, there won't be a fractured mandate. "The situation in Kashmir and Jammu at present indicates that there will be fractured mandate".
Another former BJP MLA Dina Nath indirectly supported Bhagat going to Supreme Court.
"India is democratic country and he (Bhagat) has every right to go to any court to challenge a decision which he thinks is not feasible," he said.
Nath said the MLAs had a mandate for six year and they still had two years left.
"The MLAs have the problem. We could have carried more development in our constituencies for two years and it has stopped," he added.

An Israeli soldier who fought in the country’s war on Gaza last year is to be prosecuted for the manslaughter of two Palestinian women, the military has said.
The move, which is the first prosecution of an Israeli soldier over the deaths of civilians during the 22-day war, was one of several disciplinary steps announced by the army following an internal investigation.
“The military advocate general has decided to indict a number of officers and soldiers for their conduct during the operation,” an army statement said on Tuesday.
In addition to the soldier, the military said a battalion commander was disciplined for allowing his troops to use a Palestinian civilian as a human shield. Soldiers sent the man toward a house where Palestinian fighters were holed up to persuade them to come out, a violation of army regulations, the announcement said.
The military said it also disciplined an officer who ordered an airstrike near a mosque in Beit Lahiya, an attack that killed at least 15 civilians and wounded 40.
The military prosecutor also ordered a new investigation into the deaths of two dozen members of a family who were ordered by troops into a building that was shelled later in the fighting.
Around 100 members of the Samouni family were in their home in Zaitun when it came under Israeli bombing, killing 26 of them.
However the military also said it was dismissing dozens of other incidents, many of which were raised in the UN Goldstone report on alleged war crimes during the conflict, the AFP news agency reported.
The offensive, which began at the end of 2008, killed around 1,400 Palestinians and 13 Israelis.
Sherine Tadros, Al Jazeera’s correspondent in Jerusalem, said that if found guilty the soldier facing manslaughter charges could be sentenced up to 30 years in jail.
She said the case centred on a mother and daughter who were told, along with the rest of their family, to leave their house and head to the centre of Gaza city for safety.
“When they left their house with another 28 members of their family and their friends, 20 of whom were children, they were carrying white flags trying to tell the Israeli soldiers that they come in peace.
“Now after that an Israeli soldier started firing shots at the crowd and unfortunately two woman – a mother and child were killed.
The army said Palestinian witnesses and dozens of soldiers had been questioned during its internal investigation, but it had “found gaps between the testimonies given by the soldiers and those given by Palestinians”.
“This fact made it impossible to make a criminal connection between the described incident according to Palestinian testimonies and to that described by the soldiers,” it said.
However the decision to charge the soldier with manslaughter was “based on evidence that the soldier, who was serving as a designated marksman, deliberately targeted an individual walking with a group of people waving a white flag without being ordered or authorised to do so,” the army said.

I know, it’s not past Easter yet, so there is still the chance for that rogue freeze snap, but as we look around the azaleas are glorious everywhere, dogwoods are in full flower, and the Master’s is underway in Augusta! I really love this time of year in the South. I even get to rub it in a bit; I was talking to someone in Madison, Wisconsin this afternoon and he was saying it was about 32° at 3:30 pm. That made my day.
Business around Atlanta seems to be cranking along in high speed. I know my desk is covered up and people are lining up to give me more work. I hope everyone else is benefiting from the same outlook. Our construction economy looks in great shape for the coming months and plenty of projected projects are being advertised all around. Good luck to all as we chase these developments.
We are now just past the testing season also. The CPD Exam and the PE exam were held earlier this month. Best wishes for successful outcomes for all who managed those ordeals.
Meanwhile, our Atlanta ASPE meeting is just around the corner, Tuesday April 23. We return this month, and for the rest of this activity year to Maggiano’s Little Italy, 4400 Ashford Dunwoody Road, Atlanta, GA 30346, (770) 804-3313. This is a wonderful place with fabulous food. We met there for the first-time last month, and we have a few wrinkles to iron out, but the place has a great atmosphere and great food, and there is plenty of free parking.
We are excited about our technical offering this month. Our speaker is Josh DeSousa, a young engineer with Newcomb and Boyd. When you meet him you will agree, he is an excited engineer who loves the work he is doing. Josh comes to us by way of the University of South Alabama in Mobile and courtesy of some of our other consulting engineering firms around town. Josh will be offering design insights for Fuel Systems Design for Building Utility Systems. This will cover fuel systems for generators and boilers for all those big institutional projects. This is a great offering by a great young man, so please come out and enjoy.
Registration is now open for the 2019 ASPE Tech Symposium, October 24-27 at the Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Hotel. This is a great opportunity for learning and travel to a beautiful part of the country at a great time of year.
ASPE is seeking members to participate and help grow the ASPE mentoring program. This is an opportunity for established engineers and designers to help our younger partners grow and become more successful.
All this information, along with hyperlinks to specific articles and other data is from the ASPE Pipeline, published by ASPE. If you are not getting this document every month in your email, then your email address is not up to date. Go to ASPE.org and update your contact information and you will be all set.
Have you all been enjoying the new ASPE Connect Open Forum? I am excited by this new program. I have seen and even participated in some interesting conversations on quite a range of topics. This is a great new development that I look forward to watching grow. I only need a few more hours a day, so I can participate AND get my work done! ????
ELECTIONS ARE COMING UP FOR CHAPTER OFFICERS! If you are tired of reading my newsletter every month and want a go at programing the technical sessions, please step up and push me out! Otherwise, you get me again and I will be looking for your ideas for programs in the coming year.
That’s all the news I can fit into this space. Please let us know how we are doing or if you want to be a part or even hear some other topics at meetings. We are here to serve. I hope to see you out and around this month.
The year is quickly getting away from us. We have just two more meetings until we break for summer. It was great seeing everyone at our new location last month. We had another opportunity to celebrate membership milestones with several of our members. At our last meeting, I brought up the idea of creating a Facebook group for our chapter. I have the page up and running and I encourage everyone to join. This is a great opportunity for us to interact outside of our monthly meetings. It will also allow us to get information out to our members quickly. If you have not had a chance to join, please go to the following link.
I also encourage everyone to please share your ideas on how we can make our chapter even stronger. As I have mentioned before, membership starts with all of us, we need to continue to promote our chapter to everyone in our industry. We have been stuck around 200 members for quite a while, it is time we start to see that number trend upward.

There was a slight delay with our plane landing in Seoul which made for a little bit of stress getting through security to board our flight to Bangkok. We did make it in time though, and the flight from Seoul to Bangkok was relatively smooth.
We are all tired. It's been over thirty hours since we were in a bed. However, we have all managed to get some sleep along the way. We thank God for His protection and guidance thus far, even in the smaller matters. It can be challenging to process things properly when in such a fatigued condition. If it wasn't for a loving heavenly Father leading us every step of the way, who knows where we would be.
The icing on the cake was seeing Mike and Marilee Kier in the airport after we got through customs.
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for all of your prayers and support in every imaginable way.

Japan’s SoftBank Group Corp will buy up to 9.9 per cent stake in Canada-based Nemaska Lithium Inc and invest up to $99.1 million through a private placement as part of the agreement, the lithium miner said on Thursday.
The investment, which SoftBank told Reuters was its first in the lithium industry, will be made through a private placement of share subscription receipts at $1.12 each.
The investment will be used to fund the construction and commissioning of Nemaska’s Whabouchi Mine in Quebec and its Shawinigan plant, Nemaska Lithium said in a statement.
SoftBank will have the right to nominate a member on Nemaska Lithium’s board and will also have the option to buy up to 20 per cent of the miner’s lithium output over the long term, the company told Reuters.
The investment comes at a time when lithium batteries are increasingly being installed in electric cars, including Tesla’s top-of-the-line Model X and General Motors Co’s modestly-priced Chevy Bolt.
“We are extremely pleased to be further accelerating the Mobile Revolution, an era of IoT (Internet of Things) and electric vehicles enabled by the fusion of technology and energy storage,” SoftBank Chief Executive Masayoshi Son said in a separate statement to Reuters.
SoftBank has been investing aggressively in technology companies worldwide – mostly through its London-based Vision Fund – and has stakes in companies including U.S. ride hailing firm Uber Technologies Inc.

An air conditioned vehicle will pick you up promptly, then transport you to Costa Maya beach where you'll receive equipment and a snorkeling safety tutorial, which will relax any nerves, so you can enjoy the adventure.
Floating along the top of the crystal clear waters you will see a new world below. Marine life galore will delight you and magnificent colors of coral will light up the bottom. Be at peace as you drift along with feet nibbling your toes.
After snorkeling, dry off on the beach and enjoy a frozen drink with an umbrella. There is plenty of time for lunch(not included)or to even take a short nap. Bring your camera when you book this Costa Maya tour, because you'll want to capture these memories to share with loved ones.
Participants must be able to step in and out of the vehicle and be able to swim.
The time on the beach was wonderful. It was really pretty and had plenty of chairs and shade and not crowded at all! Free drinks for three hours was great! The snorkeling was good. We saw some sea turtles and a stingray and our guide was very nice. It wasn't the best snorkeling of places we have been but was a very enjoyable excursion and we all loved the beach time.
My family had a blast relaxing on beach and snorkeling! Free drinks for three hours was really nice and one of the best beaches we've ever been to. Definitely a good value. You have to pay for your taxi but yellow taxis were easy to find and was $10 for the five of us. Would definitely choose this one again.
This was an amazing day for us! We had our own snorkeling guide and captain. The water was incredibly beautiful, we saw lots of sea turtles and beautiful fish. Following the snorkel trip we had open bar on the beach for 3 hours. And, the best part, our guide took photos of us underwater and emailed them to us afterwards. I can’t recommend this excursion enough!
We had a fantastic time and never wanted it to end! Everyone was so helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. Our 8 year old especially loved the sea turtles and sting ray the snorkeling guide took us to see. Even though it was raining here and there we are so glad they didn't cancel our excursion!
We had a nice time. We snorkeled and saw fish and even a few turtles! We then headed back to the beach area for our open bar and beach break. The staff are friendly and attentive. The beach was nice and there are plenty of shops around if you want to get touristy stuff or alcohol. It was not over the top amazing, but for what we paid it was a great excursion and we enjoyed ourselves.

He writes poetry, short fiction, nonfiction, and poetic prose, and is associated with Kabita Pakkhik — a notable Bangla poetry magazine and press. Brought up in a lower-middle-class family in postcolonial India, where he lived through the post-Naxalite era, Santanu experienced the inescapable despondency of futurelessness. This mood is reflected in all his writings, although somewhere in his cityscape hope is fluorescent. Santanu loves trekking in the Himalayas, which also has a great influence on his work. Asamapto Nibedita (Incomplete Poems) is his first collection of poetry. He has also coauthored a book of science fiction rhymes in Bengali (2007). At the turn of century Santanu began writing for children and is associated with Akoshmik Joydhak — a popular emag for children. With a master’s in geology from the University of Kolkata, Santanu is a veritable Kolkatan.

text: Background: Elina was born in a small quiet neighbourhood in Athens. To some who didn’t know Elina they might say she was born into the life of the privileged. However anyone who knew Elina would be forced to say otherwise. Elina’s mother was the mistress of a British Diplomat conceived while her father was attached to the British Embassy. Her father feared the repercussions of his actions should they become public and therefore made arrangements too financially provide for his daughter if Elina’s mother remained silent. Elina took after her mother in beauty and possessed her fathers wit and intelligence. The loss of the man she loved devastated Elina’s mother. As Elina grew up she was exposed to many men who used her mothers wealth and beauty for their own means. It was when Elina was 5 years old she developed her fear of enclosed spaces. One morning when her mother was out a gentleman who her mother was seeing was asked to watch Elina. Between bottles he became angry with Elina for spilling her soda on the carpet and as punishment he locked her in the closet. It was not until that evening when her mother returned home to find her boyfriend passed out that she heard Elina’s crying and let her out. Later that evening they packed their belongings and moved away from that life. Since that time Elina becomes catatonic in confined in enclosed spaces. Elina’s beauty blossomed in her teenage years as well as excelling in education. She used these natural traits to her advantage. By winning local teen beauty contests and landing some minor modelling contracts Elina was able to develop a love for travel and languages. After finishing High School Elina contacted her father for the first time in all these years. She found out that by birth she was also an English Citizen, her father who had wanted nothing to do with Elina till this time was now widowed and desired to see his only child. He used his contacts to arrange for Elina to study at Oxford. At the age of 16 Elina left her home in Greece and moved to Britain. At Oxford she studied Linguistics and Political Science while minoring in Psychology and Economics.Elina was an intern with the British Government in her first year at Oxford. Running errands for officials and working alongside her father. For two people who have spent 16 years a part you could not tell by looking at them It was during this year of internship that Elina’s superiors and father noticed how capable Elina was. Her father decided to reveal to Elina his role as a MI6 operative and offer Elina an internship into the agency as a translator. The training was intense and nothing like Elina had ever experienced but the information she gained was what impressed her the most. The sub-culture of the espionage world, counter-intelligence and surveillance was a life changing experience. Elina maintained her internship till graduating Oxford. Elina’s career took off upon graduation. Offered employment with the British Embassy as a language translator. Elina spent her first year assigned to the British Embassy in Berlin where she served as the ambassador’s personal assistant and translator. Her previous experiences in world affairs and inside knowledge made her stand out in her superior’s eyes and marked her for success. Elina returned to Britain the next year to bury her father. It bothered Elina that she was not there for her father to say good-bye properly but the memories of the last 5 years together and knowing him eased her pain. That same year Elina applied for and was accepted to an Embassy assignment in Athens, Greece. Returning home was a pleasure. She had not seen her mother in all these past years and it was wonderful to be back where she grew up. Attached to the British Ambassador Elina was the youngest woman to hold the position as personal assistant and linguist. Elina spent 2 years in this position and it was at this time Elina was approached by ORION. They had been watching her for some time now and other agents had spoken highly of Elina. Elina resigned herself to the fact that she would never know whom it was. Elina accepted the offer and resigned her position with the British Embassy. Her training exposed Elina to many different skills and tactics. Her natural aptitudes and physical abilities put her at the top of her class and noticed by the instructors. However it also made a few other trainees jealous. One woman in particular did not like Elina. Her name was Sadef and was of Turkish descent but that is all Elina knew about her. But that was all Sadef needed to hate Elina. When a situation arose resulting in the death of a trainee, Elina was blamed for the accident, which she denied vehemently. Deeper investigation revealed that the evidence against Elina had been tampered with to implicate her. Sadef disappeared before any questions could be asked and her whereabouts remain unknown. The event, which has been sealed for security purposes, had a psychological realisation for Elina of the event, which has been sealed for security purposes, left Elina with the inability to use lethal force on an unarmed person. Having recently completed her intensive training Elina prepares herself for her field assignment and the challenges that she will most certainly face.

This was a good chance to get a home at our budget and to know we was being lookeed out forr during the process.
I started this process with a less than perfect score. It was bad. But I did what I was asked and my score started to turn around fast. Before you know it I had my go ahead to buy a home. After that the folks a V U took over. They let me know what I had to do and how to get it done. I closed on my home about two weeks ago. This was a easy process looking back at it now. So glad I found V U . The people I worked with know their stuff and let me know what was going on at all times. Just a great way to buy a home.
Veterans United was very easy to work with. They were professional and very helpful. The house we purchased was for sale by owner so they had to guide us through all the steps. I would highly recommend Veterans United to any veteran who is thinking of purchasing a house.

When it comes to the races and classes of Elder Scrolls: Legends, each is geared toward specific play styles. From the aggression of the orcs to the magical wards of the mages, each race and class comes with its own bag of tricks. Learning your own play style and which class or race to play can be the key to winning.
Orcs and Imperials grow stronger the more of them you have on the field.
Khajiit gain power by attacking the target.
Redguards are better equipped with weapons.
Bretons are often mages equipped with wards protecting against a turn of damage.
Argonians have lethality and feed off having high magicka.
Dark Elves gain strength through dying, making use of their last gasp abilities.
Wood Elves gain strength when there is a wounded enemy creature in lane.
High Elves power up when actions are used.
Nords rally when enemy runes are destroyed.
The unplayable races still have an impact in the game. From daedra who wield strong abilities to colorless dwemer that can go into any deck, these races are just as important as the playable ones. Slaughterfish can change the course of a game if not dealt with early on. Mammoths often have breakthrough, negating some of the effect of guard.
Each class is made up of two attributes, each with their own color. The class narrows down the cards that can be included in the deck. Only colorless cards, represented by gray, can be included in every deck. These include Dwemer and Reachmen which can be used to augment your deck.
Warrior combines strength and endurance, high attack and high power are the name of the game here. Scout uses endurance and agility to outmaneuver opponents. The mage combines willpower and intelligence to rain down deadly attacks.
For a frontal assault, try the warrior or spellsword. A fierce spread of creatures that work off one another can quickly overwhelm your opponent. If you don't care about your creatures you can run with decks that take advantage of last gasp such as assassin decks. Mage decks can be crafted for control, allowing the player to take their time destroying their enemy.
Each race naturally builds into certain types of decks. Most orcs are strength and willpower cards, making them a perfect fit for warrior decks. Dark Elves are great in assassin decks, especially with their last gasp abilities. Bretons and High Elves are great in caster decks such as mage and sorcerer. Nords are great in a variety of decks, but make quick work of enemies in warrior and crusader decks.
Looking at the main strengths of the races as well as their attributes leads to stronger decks. Combining the particular skills of a race with a class it works well with can lead to innovative deck construction.


text: In this paper we study nonparametric estimation and hypothesis testing procedures for the functional coefficient AR (FAR) models of the form Xt = f1(Xt-d)Xt-1 +…+ fp(Xt-d)Xt-p +εt, first proposed by Chen and Tsay (1993). As a direct generalization of the linear AR model, the FAR model is a rich class of models that includes many successful parametric nonlinear time series models such as the threshold AR models of Tong (1983), exponential AR models of Haggan and Ozaki (1978) and many others. We propose a local linear estimation procedure for estimating the coefficient functions and study its asymptotic properties. In addition, we propose two testing procedures. The first one tests whether all the coefficient functions are constant (i.e. whether the process is linear). The second one tests if all the coefficient functions are continuous, (i.e. if any threshold type of nonlinearity presents in the process). Some simulation results are presented.

The 2015 Scottish Social Enterprise Census was undertaken as a collaborative project between a group of agencies with a shared interest in promoting social enterprise in Scotland.
Key goals of the project included identifying the number of social enterprises, building a comprehensive understanding of their activity, assessing their contribution and undertaking a financial review of the sector.
Scotland has long been recognised as a world leader in socially-progressive business structures with over 40% of its social enterprises having been established in the past ten years. During this time, the sector has been embraced by the Scottish Government as an important partner in the economy, in civic society and as a provider of public services.
The census and report clearly highlight the benefits of social enterprise in action while recognising the maturity of the sector and a growing sense of coherence among its key stakeholders.
Evidence from the report is now being used by partners to shape an agreed vision for guiding the development of the social enterprise sector and to ensure that the conditions exist for social enterprises to continue to flourish in Scotland.
Beautifully designed, easy to read and available to view and/or download from the Social Enterprise in Scotland website in PDF format [2MB], this is an inspiring document full of interesting and valuable information.

I recently watched 2002 Granada Television production of John Galsworthy's The Forsyte Saga again to immerse myself in the world of the Victorians. I was struck again by the character of Irene Heron Forsyte, the mysterious, and aloof beauty that is at the heart of the first series. During the course of the first six episodes she manages to enchant not one but three of the Forsyte men as well as stealing the heart of Philip Bosinney, the fiance of her good friend June Forsyte.
She leaves her husband Soames, which causes a scandal, that reverberates throughout the second series. Soames is never really able to get over losing Irene. Irene is certainly a Scandalous Woman but it is less about what she does than how the men in her life perceive her that makes her so Scandalous.
When we first meet Irene in both the television series she is living in Bournemouth with her stepmother. Her father who was a Professor (we are not told of what) has died, leaving Irene with only 50 pounds a year to live on. Irene is a middle-class provincial girl who has very little prospects in terms of marriage. She has no impressive dowry to offer and no real skills in terms of employment. She can play the piano very well and she is amazingly beautiful. Galsworthy describes her as "The gods had give Irene dark brown eyes and golden hair, that strange combination, provocative of men's glances. The full soft pallor of her neck and shoulders, above a gold-colored frock, gave to her personality an alluring strangeness."
Irene's stepmother is desperate to get rid of her. She has the desire to get married again herself and can't do that with an alluring step-daughter living in her house. When Soames Forsyte arrives in Bournemouth, Mrs. Heron is ecstatic that this rich man is willing to take her step-daughter without a dowry. Irene, however, is not intersted in marrying Soames. She realizes from the beginning that they are tempermentally unsuited to each other. Irene has a natural intelligence, sensitivity and wit while Soames is the typical button-upped Englishmen, completely shut off from his emotions. He feels passion, certainly for Irene, but he doesn't know how to express it. His love becomes smothering and possessive after they are married.
After asking her to marry him about six times, Irene finally agrees to marry him but demands that Soames agree to release her if the marriage doesn't work out. Soames agrees, and then promptly forgets his promise. After all what woman would want to leave a man who can offer so many material possessions as Soames? After all he is a Man of Property (the title of the first Forstye novel). The minute they are married, Soames treats her less as a wife and more as a possession, something beautiful that he has bought to grace his house, he sees her as the perfect woman to be the mother of his children.
It all goes downhill after that. Irene and Soames are introduced to Philip Bosinney, an up and coming young architect (think Frank Lloyd Wright or Charles Rennie Mackintosh) with new ideas of how houses and buildings should be designed. He and Irene are more tempermentally suited to each other, and soon they have fallen in love and begin an affair, despite his engagement to June Forsyte. Soames realizes that he is losing Irene which in turn makes him more possessive of her.
Galsworthy describes Irene has not even trying to make her marriage work. She barely speaks when they are in company, and at home she decided that they need to sleep in seperate rooms. Of course the gossip gets back to his family which Soames finds intolerable. For Soames appearance is everything. He resolves to move Irene out of London into the country where he can isolate her even further. He hires Bosinney to build a house for them called Robin's Hill. One night, not being able to take her indifference to him any longer, Soames rapes Irene. When she tells Bosinney what happens, tragedy strikes. Irene resolves that no matter what, she can no longer live with Soames and leaves him, leaving all the clothes and jewelry that he had bought her behind.
Years past and we learn that Irene has been living in a small flat in Chelsea, teaching music, and helping fallen women. Old Jolyon Forsyte who has bought Robin's Hill finds her there one day. They become great friends which leads to gossip amongst the family about what is really going on between the two of them. This is compounded when Old Jolyon dies and his will is read. He left Irene 15,000 pounds, a considerable sum in the 19th century. Old Jolyon's son, Young Jolyon is the administrator of the will, and he and Irene also forge a friendship that eventually turns to love. Soames meanwhile lurks in the background ready to strike at any opportunity. He wants to move forward with his life, remarry and have the son he's always longed for, but he also can't get over his obsession with Irene. It is her elusiveness that makes her so attractive to him. He can't possess her the way that he can a painting or a building.
Ironically his obsession pushes her into the arms of Young Jolyon. Soames and Irene are finally divorced and she achieves happiness with Young Jolyon. They marry and have a son called Jon. Soames, meanwhile, marries a young French girl named Annette who is more practical when it comes to marriage than Irene. She doesn't love Soames but she is willing to marry him because he is rich. Annette too becomes pregnant, but instead of the longed for son, she has girl called Fleur.
While watching the series and then reading the book, I was struck by how passive Irene seems for the most part. Things happen to her, rather than her initiating them, the way most Scandalous Women do. Even her relationship with Bosinney, she succumbs to his passion, rather than giving into her own. Irene also has tendency to sulk. She wants true love, and when she realizes that she will never achieve that with Soames, she acts like a small child who takes her toys back and refuses to play anymore. In the mini-series, knowing how much Soames wants a child, she douches to make sure that she never gets pregnant. Having a child would tie her to Soames forever. Not once does she think about what she is doing to June by falling in love with Bosinney. Irene lacks the courage to break out on her own until Bosinney's death. Before that she is content to fall in line with his vision of their life together as Bohemians living without money, just love and each other. She's a victim, but to a certain extent she's responsible for her own problems.
In the miniseries, Irene breaks out in small ways. Dancing at a ball at the Forsytes, although she is still in mourning. Wearing the red dress that so resembles the dress worn by Madame X in the famous portrait to a ball and dancing with Bosinney in such a way that there can be no doubt to all that is present that the two are lovers. It is this scene, both in the book and the novel, where June Forsyte finally realizes what is going on and is heartbroken, betrayed by both her friend and her fiance.
In a certain way, each man projects his own version of Irene onto her. To Soames, she is the perfect woman, the ideal Victorian wife and mother, a possession, like the art he collects. To Bosinney, she is a romantic heroine, a pre-Raphaelite beauty, a damsel in distress that he must rescue, to Old Jolyon, she represents youth, vitality, a 'second chance' at life. Only Young Jolyon sees her for who she really is, perhaps because they were friends first before they fell in love. She and Young Jolyon are also more tempermentally suited to each other. Young Jolyon was the Forsyte family rebel, who left his wife and young child and ran off with the governess. He has also made his living somewhat as an artist.
Galsworthy in a foreword to the complete edition writes that he deliberately had Irene present only through the eyes of the other characters. He calls her a 'concretion of disturbing beauty impinging on a possessive world.' This makes her something of an enigma, the reader never once knows what Irene is thinking or how she views the world. She's like a beautiful painting behind glass in a museum, that one can look at but not touch. Soames represents the old order of Victorian England that is slowly dying towards the end of the century. While he sees that things are changing, he still holds tight to the things that he has been taught.
Galsworthy based the story of Irene, Soames and Bosinney partly from life. His cousin Arthur married a woman named Ada Nemesis Pearson Cooper in 1891. Within a few years, Ada and Galsworthy were lovers, and in 1902, Ada finally left her husband for Galsworthy. They lived happily together until his death in 1933, apart from a slight hiccup when Galsworthy became enthralled with a young actress, who pursued him relentlessly. When Ada found out, it almost wrecked their marriage. Galsworthy quickly ended the relationship when he saw the pain it was causing her. Apparently the Galsworthys believed in free love in principle but not in practice.
In the end, Irene finally achieves the happiness and the love, that she had always sought, but it comes at a great price. She loses the first great love of her life, but she must grow up and learn to be truly independent and stop being a victim before she can find what she seeks.
If you want to see an Irene that makes the character believable, rent the older version of the Forsythe Saga. Irene Dawn Porter was born to play Irene. She's so beautiful and graceful that you understand the character much better than in the recent version. The actress who played Irene in the current version of the Forsythe Saga was miscast for the part- there's no grace or beauty in her performance and she comes off as petulant and foolish. In the earlier version, you understand the tragedy of Sommes' marriage and what happens because of it.
I've only ever seen That Forsyth Woman which has implanted in my brain the picture of a fiery, independent Irene Forsyth as portrayed by Greer Garson. *g* Your write up of a more accurate adaptation makes her less than appealing, and yet, she did break the mold despite her passiveness. She refused to conform to the proper role of a Victorian middle-class woman, not once, but twice--and refusing Soames's advances was legally worse than cheating on him! Now I'll have to rent this version to see the story for myself.
I haven't seen that version yet, it's definitely on my Netflix queue. I did see the original series when they repeated it on PBS with Nyree Dawn Porter who looks much more like the description of Irene in the book. Interesting that Eric Porter looks so much older than Irene when in the book he's in his mid twenties when they are married. We don't know how old she is.
Evangeline, I do agree that although Irene is very passive in the newer series and in the book, she does eventually take a stand for herself, refusing Soames his marital rights and then eventually leaving him without any money at all (personally I would have kept the jewelry and sold it!).
Irene was a classless tart.soames was to good for her.when she started helping downtrodden women,her personality suited the position well.
I hated her character.women like her purr like a kitten but smell like a skunk!!!!

Pruning is a delicate and crucial task for the lives of our vineyards. It determines in great part the evolution of each vine with respect to its growth, health, form, and the quantity and quality of its grapes at harvest. The objective of pruning is to train vines to produce without excess, in order to concentrate the natural sugars and flavors in the summer, and evenly distribute the grapes on the vines so that they can take advantage of maximum space and ventilation in the foliage.
Slow and tedious work, pruning starts as soon as the leaves fall, and continues through the dormancy of the vines, until budbreak. Here in Costieres de Nimes that means from early November to March. What is a pleasant job under a bright winter sun becomes painful during damp, icy days or, even worse, when facing the freezing mistral winds.
In addition, the pruner needs to have a real know-how. At each vine, he (or she) has to take into account the varietal, its vigor, and the wine the parcel is destined to become. Upon reflection, vine by vine, the pruner will leave in place the number of buds necessary to obtain the ideal number of clusters on each branch of the vine.
In order to imagine the sheer scale of the task at hand, let’s do a little math exercise: there are, on average 5,000 vines per hectare, or 500,000 vines to be pruned at Château de Nages and Mas Molines combined. We leave 6 spurs (branch cuts) per vine for a total of approximately 3,000,000 cuts from a pair of shears (the truth is actually closer to twice that!).

At Pentecost, people from every nation under heaven who were in Jerusalem gathered to hear the Apostles, touched by the Holy Spirit, preach to them, each hearing in their own tongue.
“Pentecost is the time where there was great unity that emerged out of diversity,” said Father Clint Wilson, the associate rector at St. George’s Episcopal Church in Nashville. “Think of the account of the tower of Babel in the Old Testament. … Pentecost is the opposite of that. … It’s the unifying of people in prayer and sent out in mission.
“That’s what we’re trying to do,” said Father Wilson, who is organizing a Pentecost service co-sponsored by the Episcopal Diocese of Tennessee and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nashville.
The service, “Common Prayer + Common Mission: Ecumenical Evensong for Fostering Unity,” will be held at 5 p.m. Sunday, June 4, the Feast of Pentecost, at St. George’s. It is open to everyone in both dioceses and will be followed by a barbecue reception to raise funds for America’s Kids Belong, an organization that helps to place foster children.
The inspiration for the Ecumenical Evensong came from a Vespers Service at St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome hosted by Pope Francis for Anglican and Catholic bishops from around the world who were commissioned to pursue unity in common prayer and common mission. Father Wilson attended as an observer with his bishop, Bishop John Bauerschmidt.
When Father Wilson approached Bishop David Choby about the idea of a joint prayer service, the bishop “was warm to the idea and wanted to do it,” Father Wilson said.
Because Bishop Choby is still recovering from surgery, he asked Father Steven Gideon, pastor of St. John Vianney Church in Gallatin and a former Episcopal priest, to represent the bishop at the Ecumenical Evensong.
The Evensong is the Anglican version of the Catholic Vespers service and includes sung evening prayers, many of which are shared by both faith traditions and will be familiar to Catholics, Father Wilson said. Bishop Bauerschmidt and Father Gideon will preach homilies, and the Schola of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia and the St. George’s Choir will sing the prayers. “It’s really beautiful,” Father Wilson said.
After the two faith traditions pray together, they will join their efforts in service through the barbecue reception for America’s Kids Belong. “So we’re joined together in both prayer and in mission,” Father Wilson said.
Although the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican Church have been divided since the 1500s, the Second Vatican Council launched a new era of ecumenism between the Catholic Church and all other faith traditions, Father Wilson noted.
“There’s a lot of fruit that’s come out of that in the last 50 years,” Father Wilson said. Catholics and Anglicans have agreed to recognize each other’s baptisms, and the martyrs of both churches are recognized by the other, he said. The two churches even issued a joint document on justification, one of the major points of difference that led to the Protestant Reformation and the split of the Western Christian churches.
“It’s opened up many avenues of dialogue and healing,” Father Wilson said of Vatican II.
The Ecumenical Evensong is free and open to everyone, but registration is required for the barbecue reception to follow so organizers can have enough food on hand. Tickets are $10 per person and $25 per family. To register, search for Common Prayer Common Mission event at www.eventbrite.com.

If Mark Stern hadn’t found Tennis Northeast (Metro Boston Tennis League), he wouldn’t be the self-described “tennis nut” he is today.
He is not only a devoted Tennis Northeast (TNE) enthusiast, he is apparently the most ardent enthusiast in the entire Tennis League Network.
Why? Because this 3.25 player now holds the record for most matches played in the spring season—an impressive total of 38.
But what about the 183 matches he’s played in the 24 & 1/2 months that he has been a league member? That’s a lot an awful lot of tennis that has grown from a simple league flyer he saw posted at a tennis court. So, when people talk about the growth of tennis and TLN, it seems that Mark Stern owns a big chunk of it.
Tennis isn’t Mark’s only activity. It’s bigger than that. He is an exercise addict. He runs everyday with his dog; and as a soccer referee, he runs up and down the field with the kids, teens and adults. He has no interest, however, in becoming a tennis lines person. “It’s too sedentary."
For Mark, beginning such an intense exercise regimen was a somewhat do or die kind of decision. A two-pack-a-day smoker for 26 years, from age 13 to 39, Mark says, “I finally decided something had to give.” So he quit smoking and started running. He jumped into it with zeal. He has run a dozen marathons, ten of them Boston marathons, and participates in an older men’s running team. In 15 years, his team has won the New England Championships more than half the time, and once placed second in a national competition.
“When my son was in the 8th grade, he decided to learn tennis and join the school team.“ Mark took lessons with him. And “that,” he says, “was my big mistake!” His son quit “because his father got too interested.” Now his son plays and writes music, and Mark is the only family member playing tennis.
By now you might be getting the picture that Mark is not only a tennis addict, but an all around exercise addict.”My wife and kids think I’m a nut, over the top on exercise.” Are they right? You be the judge.
There are two startling facts that would seem to belie his success in tennis. He’ll be 65 in September. And he has rheumatoid arthritis. Neither of these interferes with his physical activity.
Does he think age is a factor in tennis?
“I get beaten by just as many guys in their 60s as by guys who are 25.” So age doesn’t appear to matter. Neither does his RA since he has no symptoms, which has stupefied his doctors. They saw it in his blood work and on an MRI, but Mark doesn’t feel it at all.
Mark didn’t pick up tennis until nearly five years ago at the age of 60. Why did he join the league?
Here is something that makes him a truly unique competitor: “I prefer to play with better players and lose 2/3 of my matches, rather than win 2/3 of my matches. That’s one way to “get better and improve as a player.” To assist with that he’s now taking lessons.
Mark is interested not only in his personal tennis progress, but also to the development of inner-city players. He "has made a personal campaign of collecting racquets players are no longer using to donate to an inner-city tennis program. If you want to donate directly, or through him, email him at sternbarker@comcast.net."
