For a college graduate, the corporate world of professional business attire, morning meetings, black coffee, cubicles, and paid vacation..."Wait, you mean they'll pay me to go on vacation?" is unfamiliar territory. Most college graduates are accustomed to working in the all too unavoidable world of retail or food service where they have either folded enough Gap shirts that they are convinced they have arthritis in their fingers, or waited enough tables at Denny's to be able to recite the entire menu from memory. Even for the select few of college graduates who had a summer internship with a law firm, accounting firm, or the like, are still not prepared for what's to come when they leave campus for the "real world."
Often, most college graduates preview what the corporate world has to offer through the lens of Hollywood. Movies such as "Wall Street" and "Office Space" offer very different interpretations of what the business world is and what the fresh-faced grad can expect their first day of work. Inexperienced, many new graduates resort to relying upon their crisp, just off the printer, diploma as means to gather enough confidence to make it to the office their first morning of work without hyperventilating, yet they still slip a little brown bag into their new briefcase, just in case. No matter how much education a new graduate thinks they may have, four years of higher education cannot prepare them for the corporate world. Then again, it's not surprising; many college graduates are accustomed to the infamous college lifestyle of sleeping in late, staying out until 2 a.m. on a Wednesday, subsisting on pizza and every caffeinated beverage known to man so they can catch a late-night study session and still make the 80's Night Party at the neighboring frat house.
However, companies have a lot to gain by hiring college graduates, even if during the first few days they may be ready to run at any second back to college, convinced their not prepared and maybe they had it wrong meeting a timely graduation. They may even have fleeting thoughts throughout the first day of work that those 5th year seniors they made fun of for staying behind may have been on to something. Nevertheless, companies, though often times not aware of it, have an enormous amount of talent on their hands when they bring new college graduates into their culture.
Once a college graduates initial fear of the real world passes, which often leaves when they receive their first paycheck, they offer companies a youthful perspective, that brings with it energy, creativity, passion, and motivation. Companies benefit in many respects when they add college graduates onto their team. In particular, college hires treat their first real job differently than other senior members of the workforce because they have passion. That is not to say that other professionals several years into their career do not have passion for their career, not at all. However, college hires have a distinct passion that can only come with your first real job.
Often they give everything they have to their career, especially in the first year because they want to succeed. Why would they spend four years of their life dedicating themselves to their academics and the occasional theme party only to graduate and fail in their new career? College hires may initially be overwhelmed by their new circumstances, but once they make the transition from college student to young professional, the prospect of staying late at the office working in a career they adore and getting paid well for it becomes appealing. Sure, at times they may yearn for their carefree college days, but who doesn't? Ultimately, the evolution from college to career may be difficult at first, but it is well worth it for those new graduates eager to show the world what they have to offer, besides knowing how to fold a Gap Polo with one hand.

Maud Mandel, professor of history and Judaic studies and director of the Program in Judaic Studies, assumed the dean of the College position July 1.
Mandel’s selection as the University’s top academic officer for undergraduates concludes a national search that began last October, shortly after the announcement that then-Dean of the College Katherine Bergeron would leave Jan. 1 to serve as the president of Connecticut College.
Mandel replaces Vice President for Campus Life and Student Services Margaret Klawunn, who served as interim dean of the College last semester.
“Professor Mandel has a deep appreciation for the value of the Brown curriculum to cultivate intellectually independent, creative and analytic minds,” President Christina Paxson said in a University press release. Mandel has served in several different advising roles at Brown, Paxson wrote in a community-wide email Tuesday afternoon.
In an interview with The Herald, Mandel cited her work on Team Enhanced Advising and Mentoring, a group that advises students of underrepresented backgrounds and first-generation college students, as the “most direct” preparation she has had for the role of dean of the College, noting that the work has introduced her to issues like financial aid and career advising at Brown.
Mandel graduated from Oberlin College with a Bachelor of Arts in English in 1989 and received her masters and doctoral degrees in history from the University of Michigan.
She began teaching at Brown as a visiting assistant professor of modern Jewish history in 1997.
Unlike incoming provost Vicki Colvin, Mandel is an internal hire, which some students called for this spring as searches for both positions were underway. But the two selections also leave the racial diversity of the senior administration — among the lowest in the Ivy League and another point of emphasis for some students — unchanged.
Mandel named her long-term experience at and consequent personal connection to Brown as one of three factors that drove her interest in the dean of the College position since it first became available. The vision of the current administration and the proliferation of massive open online courses, which has challenged traditional ideas about what universities can offer students, also drew her in, Mandel said.
As a veteran faculty member, Mandel witnessed changes to the advising program under Bergeron and said she hopes to expand on those reforms. While Bergeron built up first-year and sophomore advising, Mandel hopes to strengthen concentration advising, she told The Herald.
“We want students who come to Brown to feel like they got an experience here that’s unique and important that would not be available to them at other places,” Mandel said, with advising a vehicle to achieve that goal.
Mandel’s scholarship and teaching focus on an array of topics within Jewish and French history, including immigration, the Holocaust, anti-Semitism and nationalism. Her most recent publications have explored the relationships between Jews and Muslims in France.
At Brown, Mandel has been appointed as a faculty fellow at the Pembroke Center and the Cogut Center for the Humanities, according to the press release. Her teaching has also been acclaimed by students: On the Critical Review, several of her most recent ratings are close to the highest possible score of 1.
Mandel will have a leading role in implementing the components of the University’s strategic plan that focus on strengthening undergraduate education, according to the press release.
She will not teach next year but hopes to get back in the classroom shortly after that, she told The Herald, adding that she would not have taken a position that would isolate her from students.
Mandel recently started work on a book project and will continue doing research in some capacity as she moves forward with administrative work, she said.
The search committee that selected Mandel was chaired by former Provost Mark Schlissel P’15 and staffed by several professors, staff members and undergraduates.
I see not one word in the entire article about broadening Brown’s search globally for the best and the brightest, nor about improving the quality of teaching, nor of teaching well beyond the walls of Brown in Providence.
I hope that Maud Mandel expresses her support of these initiatives as she takes up her responsibilities.
Not one word for John though. Every article must be explicitly about John’s agenda, preferably in grade school English.
It’s not about MOOCs, and it’s not about “diversity” (in quotes on purpose). True “diversity” means accepting people from around the world: 87% of applications to Brown are from the US, which has only 4% of the world’s population. I find it hard to believe that 87% of the world’s best and brightest reside in the US.
Now, do you have a comment or would you rather persist in ad hominem mud-slinging?
something for you to think about: a number of countries in the world (UK, Switzerland, China, among others) boast phenomenal universities of their own. It costs significantly less for excellent students there to attend institutions in their own countries, and they will still get an excellent education.
In the US, however, the most talented students have only a handful of (expensive) schools to attend. Going abroad often means paying a surcharge as a foreign student –– sometimes three times the local rate.
Shouldn’t we be focusing on bringing down the costs of US universities so that talented American students can attend premier schools? Brown should continue to admit foreign students, but there are problems at home to fix as well.
I agree with you that $59,000 per year is not simply outrageous–it is immoral for Brown to charge that amount of money. With the University of Texas now offering a four-year bachelor’s degree for $10,000 (1/25th of Brown), this rate is untenable.
– we need to accept the best and the brightest from around the world. In 1946, the US accounted for 70% of the world’s GDP. Today it’s only 22%. We need to wake up and smell the (foreign-imported) coffee.
– accepting people from abroad to Brown is a money-maker. Talk with any Admissions Director of a top-tier school in the US. They’re making money hand-over-fist with foreign scholars. They’ll literally pay anything to go to Brown.
Now, if you REALLY want to think big, don’t think about the ~1600 kids coming to Brown every year. Think about the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of people that Brown could be educating, thus offsetting the cost of tuition at Brown itself. These include not just college-age kids, but also high schoolers, alums and those interested in good continuing education. I’ve spent >$300K on my education since leaving Brown, and signed off on $millions for people working for me…Brown hasn’t seen a penny of that revenue, to my regret.
I share your goal of bringing down Brown’s unethical, immoral, too-high tuitions. It’s time that Brown, and in particular Chris Paxson, considered 21st Century methods to reduce costs and increase income from sources that currently lie fallow.
How much time have you spent in foreign countries? Have you attended universities there?
As someone who comes from a multinational family, has lived abroad, and whose family members grew up in very different school/university systems, I can assure you that not everyone is chomping at the bit to attend Brown. They’re not even chomping at the bit to attend Harvard. They see value in their own educational systems, or they may have cultural/linguistic/language-related reasons to attend their home institutions. Something to think about.
Also, when I was at Brown, I helped develop an online course. I also TA’d that course. It was not exactly the best way to learn, and the professor and my fellow TA’s were swamped trying to run it and grade everyone. MOOCs can be taxing for everyone involved, and the educational output might be interesting but have not been shown to be a comparable academic experience.
J’ai habité en France pendant 5 ans, und ich habe 5 Jahren in Deutschland gewohnt. I am fluent in 4 languages. I have been a Geschaeftsfuehrer in Germany and President in France of two companies.
Your failure in trying to create an online course does not mean that online courses don’t work. It simply means that you failed. Failure is a good thing. Normally, when we fail in a good cause, we pick up and do it better the next time.
I’m sorry, but I see a much more international group at Harvard and Stanford than Brown. You won’t convince me that Brown cannot extend its brand abroad.
I’m sorry, angry alum, but get your head out of your kiester and take a look at KhanAcademy.org, Dean Nitin Nohra at Harvard Business School, and the success of online courses at schools as diverse as MIT, Stanford and Yale.
Brown risks becoming irrelevant if it continues to adhere to 19th Century teaching technologies. If you REALLY want to reduce tuitions and increase Brown’s relevance, join us in bringing about needed revolutionary change at Brown.
Yes but first things first. We must begin by replacing that idiot Chris Paxson.
I too regret your amazing bragging abilities cannot be shared with the world.
Why don’t you go back to posting Bowe Bergdahl conspiracy theories on the New York Times website? I’m sure you’ll be about as successful in procuring the impeachment of the president as you’ll be in influencing the Brown administration.
– teach millions of people from 8 to 80 around the world, not just the 1600 coming to Providence in new classes each year.
Please, respond to the issues, not to ad-hominem arguments.
If we admit students from around the world, we may end up letting in the next generation of Kenyan Marxist fascist Sharia advocates who will infiltrate our government! We don’t want that, do we?
Brown must admit the next generation of Albert Einsteins, Nelson Mandelas, Mahatma Gandhis and Angela Merkels of the world. If Brown continues to focus on the US as the sole source for its branding and its students, it will continue a long decline to irrelevance. Do you have something substantive to say about accepting foreign students and teaching people around the world, or are you simply ignorant?
Hi John. Just wanted to let you know that I’m a current Brown student and love it very much. I do not appreciate being referred to in your comments as some far off goal as I do exist already. My friends, the next Nelson Mandela and the next Mahatma Gandhi, would also like you to stop referencing them as well.
Are you going to worship John, or are you going to be part of the problem?
Admittedly, I like this choice as a replacement for your previous candidate of Mother Theresa.
It’s not about MOOCs… Yet you are constantly touting the benefits of them. Is it less relevant when someone brings them up independently of you?
Moreover, your mention of diversity is not really very useful in the core topic at hand: your comments are not addressing the article they sit upon. You conveniently bring the discussion away with every reply.
Finally, enough with playing the victim. You are consistently condescending and almost always brag about your accomplishments as if that makes your arguments somehow more valid (it doesn’t).
Really, do you think that I suddenly came up with a revelation about flipping the classroom and online teaching? How 19th Century of you!
In fact, Brown is currently an outlier in using online tools. Spending $300K on two MOOCs and then declaring “no more” represents the worst kind of narrow-mindedness.
I continue to talk about improving Brown. You continue to talk about my shortcomings. My wife can do this far better than you can.
The key question is: Which is the more productive discussion?
I’m sorry, where did I say that? I love your condescending tone as usual though.
As for declaring “no more” I once again refer you to the actual article, where the new dean was in fact drawn in by the concept.
I’m sure your wife is wonderful (truly!), but your cute statement is irrelevant.
Welcome to the Big Leagues. Brown can be seen as a faded former, something like Spain in this year’s World Cup. You will have to up your game and that of Brown in order to compete against not only Harvard and Stanford, but also the best of the world.

Eureka, MO. – Wednesday evening a man crashed his car through the front of a local restaurant in Eureka and fled the scene.
The accident happened after the driver had left a restaurant, Poor Richard’s Restaurant and Sports Club, where patrons had witnessed the suspect drinking. The man then proceeded to back into the establishment, injuring three patrons, and fleeing the scene.
Witnesses say that one victim was pinned between the car and the bar during the accident and wasn’t freed until the vehicle drove away. The victims were taken to a nearby hospital for treatment of minor to moderate injuries. At this time, one victim is currently still in the hospital, but the others have since been released.
After the driver fled the scene, a customer inside of the restaurant reported the accident to the police, and several witnesses followed the vehicle to gather information about the suspect. The police apprehended the suspect shortly after, and he is now held in the St. Louis County Jail on $25,000 bond.
Although it is best to stay at the scene of an accident after it happens, roughly 11.7% of all crashes involve hit-and-runs. The main cause of hit-and-run accidents in the U.S. is driving under the influence. In 2016 alone, more than one million drivers were arrested for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
If you or someone you care about has been injured or killed in a hit-and-run accident, or in an accident involving a driver under the influence, contact the Dixon Injury Firm today to discuss your case with our experienced Car Accident Attorneys.

Danish Army Specific: In the spring of 1997, the Danish Army, represented by the Army Technical Service, issued a comprehensive Request for Proposal together with specifications for an armoured personnel carrier.
At the same time, the Army Technical Service requested the bidders to put one fully equipped vehicle each at their disposal for a thorough test and evaluation, which then took place in all areas of Denmark during the months of August until October of 1997.
December 29, 1997 the Danish Army Materiel Command signed a contract worth 130 mill. DKr concerning deliverance of 22 Piranha III APC´s, build by the Swiss company Mowag, who also supplied the Eagle. The Piranha is operational at the DIB for replacement of the Unimog 416 and the MAN 8.136.
Total need of this vehicle is 22 (18 APC, 2 CP and 2 ARV), and deliverance of the first 2 vehicles took place on May 28th.1999.
The remaining 20 vehicles have been build by Falck-Schmidt in Odense. The company is well known for it's upgrade-program of the Danish M113 APC´s and the Leopard 1A5 and the midlife-update of the M41.
By end of August 2000 12 vehicles have been handed over to the Danish Army Material Command, and the remaining 10 was delivered before end of December.
11 vehicles were deployed to Kosovo in February 2001.
A further batch of 22 vehicles were ordered in June 2003. Of these, 11 vehicles will be the APC variant and the remaining 11 will be configured as ambulances.
Historical: Development of the Piranha series, which was a private venture, dates back to the early 1970´s with first prototype completed in 1972, and first production vehicles in 1976.
Canada placed an order for 350 6 x 6 Piranhas in February 1977. These were build under licence in Canada by Diesel Division of General Motors Canada.
Denmark was the third country having evaluated and selected PIRANHA III category vehicles which appeared for the first time in early 1996. The Piranha III features improved mobility and armour protection compared to the earlier Piranha II. Piranha III models also have higher payloads and gross vehicle weights that enables them to undertake an increased range of battlefield missions.
- the US Detroit Diesel 6V53TA, developing 350 HP at 2800 rpm coupled to an Allison MD3560P automatic gearbox.
The first PIRANHA III 8x8 (called LAV III Kodiak) for the Canadian Forces were fielded in March 2000, and a total of 651 vehicles have been delivered. Sweden has taken delivery of the first two PIRANHA III 10x10.
Ireland signed a contract for 40 vehicles (34 APC, 4 command post, 1 maintenance and 1 ambulance) in 1999 which were delivered between June 2001 and early 2002. A follow up contract for 25 APC´s were signed in 2003. The APC´s are fitted with a Thales FVT800-series turret.
New Zealand ordered 105 vehicles in year 2000 to replace the M113.
Spain ordered 18 vehicles in 3 different configurations (APC, command post and ambulance) for the Spanish Marine Infantry.
As a further evolution of the Piranha family of armoured wheeled vehicle, as adopted by various NATO and non-NATO countries, MOWAG developed as a private venture the Piranha IV 8 x 8 vehicle to complement any applications over and above the Piranha III capabilities.
The heavier Piranha IV 8 x 8 vehicle, using the proven technology of the Piranha III, offers higher levels of armour as well as mine protection and meets the future EURO 3 traffic emission regulations. It is powered by a MTU 6V 199TE20 developing 544 HP coupled to a ZF Ecomat 7HP 902 gearbox.
Typical new features are the digitised vehicle information system (VETRONICS) with built-in test (BIT) capabilities, the reduced radar and thermal signatures, as well as the latest anti-tank mine protection concept.
At least 6.500 units (model I to IV) have been produced so far.
Among other users of the Piranha family are Australia, Botswana, Ireland, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland and the United States (called Stryker).
Also manufactured under license in Chile (Cardoen Industries and FAMAE) and Great Britain (Alvis Vickers).
In 2006 the Belgium government agreed to allocate EUR700 million (USD 846.6 million) for the acquisition of 242 Mowag Piranha IIIC 8 x 8 armoured personnel carriers (APCs) and its variants for its Armoured Infantry Vehicle programme.

A US financial services firm uses its corporate home page to showcase a rising digital channel.
Morgan Stanley’s new ‘Ideas’ podcast is a series of weekly episodes on business, finance and technology that started in June. People can subscribe via iTunes or listen individually directly from the corporate website.
To promote the series launch, the Morgan Stanley corporate website home page has a call-to-action – ‘Ideas Worth Listening To’ and a link to subscribe on iTunes.
Morgan Stanley is unusual in producing a weekly series of podcasts, and in promoting them so prominently on a corporate website home page.
Although podcasts have been around for a long time, they are rising in popularity, so it makes sense to use this growing channel for thought leadership. Morgan Stanley is also using its website well to support the initiative, both to promote the new series and serve as a ‘hub’ for individual episodes – listeners can subscribe via iTunes, but they can also listen to individual podcasts in the website’s ‘Ideas’ section.

Presidential power over a party or Congress comes from enough lawmakers needing, fearing or genuinely liking them. Donald Trump has none of this.
Almost four months into office, Trump has been unable to gain leverage over his party, especially in the Senate, much less Congress as a whole.
Senate Republicans don't need him. They're pressing ahead with their investigations into Russian interference in the election and pushing sanctions against Vladimir Putin. They're pushing their own health care bill on their own timetable and hardly rushing to Trump's defense. With a very favorable set of 2018 races, it's hard to see a need materializing.I'm told Senate Republicans will also go their own way on tax reform, unconstrained by White House policy priorities or timetable.
Most Republicans don't like him. President Obama used a mix of need and genuine affection to jam through Obamacare in his first two years. There are very few Trump Republicans, much less lawmakers who dig their president. They tolerate him and they often vote with him, because Trump has largely embraced conventional GOP ideas. But most think he's blowing it.
No one fears him. Not long ago, Republicans worried about a Trump tweet fired their way. No more. And Democrats certainly don't fear a president opposed by most Americans. In fact, as Axios' Jonathan Swan reported in his weekly Sneak Peek newsletter last night, they're ready to effectively shut down the Senate to force a special prosecutor for the Russia probe.
Why all this matters: A top GOP lobbyist tells me: "Business feels the agenda is going down the toilet. ... This said, his supporters are hanging in there."

There hasn't been a great Star Wars game with a quality story since The Old Republic. Those of you who have been here with us since the beginning know that it's been nearly 6 years now. Needless to say, we're overdue a new game with a great story. Will Star Wars Battlefront be that game? Some have hoped for it but the first game didn't measure up. So did DICE listen to the fans for the sequel?
Some say yes. Time will tell for sure.
Early access was given to a handful of gaming reviewers and from that, we ask the question: Is the story any good?
"My time with the Star Wars Battlefront 2 campaign has shown there's hope that Star Wars storytelling in video games isn't dead."
He says this campaign in the best story in Star Wars gaming we've seen in years. There's some good news to balance out all the negative spewing around the game this past week. But does it hold up?
Many accused EA of killing the single-player experience and Star Wars Battlefront didn't have much in the way of single-player story. The hope (and expectation) was that this would change with the sequel.
This reviewer says, "I've played through the first three missions of Star Wars Battlefront 2, and so far I'm impressed."
He goes on to describe some of what you see and do in these first three missions of the campaign and closes with, "The campaign so far is a blast. The controls are just as tight as multiplayer, and the (canon) story is the best we've seen in a video game in years. We haven't actually seen an actual full-length Star Wars story in a new game in years, but even if we had, I bet this one would compare pretty good."
So while the loot boxes and other multiplayer features may be less than desirable, at best, could the game redeem itself at all with a great single-player campaign mode?

Base entities Post, Comment and Image now accept an url parameter. This will be used when serializing the entities to AS2 for ActivityPub.
RFC7033 webfinger generator now has compatibility to platforms using it with ActivityPub. It now lists aliases pointing to the ActivityPub entity ID and profile URL. Also there is a rel=self to point to the application/activity+json AS2 document location.
Added a Django view decorator that makes any Profile or Post view ActivityPub compatible. Right now basic AS2 serialization is supported when the view is called using the supported content types in the Accept header. If the content types are not in the header, the view will render normally.
When used, a few extra settings must be given in the Django FEDERATION configuration dictionary.
get_object_function should contain the Python path to a function that takes a request object and returns an object matching the ActivityPub ID for the request or None.
process_payload_function should contain the Python path to a function that takes in a request object. It should return True if successful (or placed in queue for processing later) or False in case of any errors.
Backwards incompatible. Lowest compatible Python version is now 3.6.
Backwards incompatible. Internal refactoring to allow adding ActivityPub support as the second supported protocol. Highlights of changes below.
Reversal of all the work previously done to use Diaspora URL format identifiers. Working with the Diaspora protocol now always requires using handles and GUID’s as before the changes introduced in v0.15.0. It ended up impossible to construct a Diaspora URL in all cases in a way that apps only need to store one identifier.
The id and possible target_id are now either URL format identifiers (ActivityPub) or a handle or GUID (Diaspora, depending on entity). Additionally a new actor_id has been added which for ActivityPub is an URL and for Diaspora a handle. Note, Diaspora entities always have also the guid, handle, target_guid and target_handle as before v0.15.0, depending on the entity. When creating Diaspora entities, you must pass these in for sending to work.
The high level fetchers.retrieve_remote_content signature has changed. It now expects an id for fetching from AP protocol and handle, guid and entity_type to fetch from Diaspora. Additionally a sender_key_fetcher can be passed in as before to optimize public key fetching using a callable.
The high level fetchers.retrieve_remote_profile signature has changed. It now expects an id for fetching from AP protocol and handle for fetching from Diaspora. Additionally a sender_key_fetcher can be passed in as before to optimize public key fetching using a callable.
The generator class RFC7033Webfinger now expects instead of an id the handle and guid of the profile.
NodeInfo2 parser now returns the admin user in handle format instead of a Diaspora format URL.
The high level inbound and outbound functions inbound.handle_receive, outbound.handle_send parameter user must now receive a UserType compatible object. This must have the attributes id and private_key. If Diaspora support is required then also handle and guid should exist. The type can be found as a class in types.UserType.
The outbound function outbound.handle_send parameter recipients structure has changed. It must now for Diaspora contain either a handle (public delivery) or tuple of handle, RSAPublicKey, guid for private delivery. For AP delivery either url ID for public delivery or tuple of url ID, RSAPublicKey for private delivery.
Backwards incompatible. Generator RFC3033Webfinger and the related rfc3033_webfinger_view have been renamed to RFC7033Webfinger and rfc7033_webfinger_view to reflect the right RFC number.
Backwards incompatible. Support for Legacy Diaspora payloads have been removed to reduce the amount of code needed to maintain while refactoring for ActivityPub.
Switch crypto library pycrypto to pycryptodome, which is a more up to date fork of the former. This fixes CVE-2018-6594 found in the former.
Deployment note. When updating an application, you must uninstall pycrypto first, otherwise there will be a conflict if both the versions are installed at the same time. To uninstall, do pip uninstall pycrypto.
JSON encrypted payload encryption and decryption is handled by the Diaspora EncryptedPayload class.
Also provided is a Django view and url configuration for easy addition into Django projects. Django is not a hard dependency of this library, usage of the Django view obviously requires installing Django itself. For configuration details see documentation.
Add fetchers and parsers for NodeInfo, NodeInfo2, StatisticsJSON and Mastodon server metainfo documents.
Added new network utilities to fetch IP and country information from a host.
The country information is fetched using the free ipdata.co service. NOTE! This service is rate limited to 1500 requests per day.
Extract mentions from Diaspora payloads that have text content. The mentions will be available in the entity as _mentions which is a set of Diaspora ID’s in URI format.
The signature has changed. Parameter recipients should now be a list of recipients to delivery to. Each recipient should either be an id or a tuple of (id, public key). If public key is provided, Diaspora protocol delivery will be made as an encrypted private delivery.
Backwards incompatible. Change handle_create_payload function signature.
Parameter to_user is now to_user_key and thus instead of an object containing the key attribute it should now be an RSA public key object instance. This simplifies things since we only need the key from the user, nothing else.
We’ve already accepted these on incoming payloads for a long time and so do all the other platforms now, so now we always send out entities with the new property names. This can break federation with really old servers that don’t understand these keys yet.
Some platforms deliver payloads not using the urlsafe base64 standard which caused problems when validating the unquoted signature. Ensure maximum compatibility by allowing non-standard urlsafe quoted payloads.
Fix for empty values in Diaspora protocol entities sometimes ending up as None instead of empty string when processing incoming payloads.
Previously handles were validated like emails.
Previously only first_name was used when creating the Profile.name value. Now both first_name and last_name are used.
When creating outgoing payloads, the Profile.name will still be placed in first_name to avoid trying to artificially split it.
The Share entity supports all the properties that a Diaspora reshare does. Additionally two other properties are supported: raw_content and entity_type. The former can be used for a “quoted share” case where the sharer adds their own note to the share. The latter can be used to reference the type of object that was shared, to help the receiver, if it is not sharing a Post entity. The value must be a base entity class name.
Entities have two new properties: id and target_id.
Diaspora entity ID’s are in the form of the Diaspora URI scheme, where it is possible to construct an ID from the entity. In the future, ActivityPub object ID’s will be found in these properties.
id - Object ID. For Diaspora, the only supported protocol at the moment, this is in the Diaspora URI format.
sender_key_fetcher - Optional function that takes a profile handle and returns a public key in str format. If this is not given, the public key will be fetched from the remote profile over the network.
The given ID will be fetched from the remote endpoint, validated to be from the correct author against their public key and then an instance of the entity class will be constructed and returned.
retrieve_and_parse_content. See notes regarding the high level fetcher above.
fetch_public_key. Given a handle as a parameter, will fetch the remote profile and return the public_key from it.
parse_diaspora_uri. Parses a Diaspora URI scheme string, returns either None if parsing fails or a tuple of handle, entity_type and guid.
The legaxy Webfinger is still used as fallback if the new Webfinger is not found.
Refactoring for Diaspora MagicEnvelope class.
The class init now also allows passing in parameters to construct and verify MagicEnvelope instances. The order of init parameters has not been changed, but they are now all optional. When creating a class instance, one should always pass in the necessary parameters depnding on whether the class instance will be used for building a payload or verifying an incoming payload. See class docstring for details.
Diaspora procotol receive flow now uses the MagicEnvelope class to verify payloads. No functional changes regarding verification otherwise.
Diaspora protocol receive flow now fetches the sender public key over the network if a sender_key_fetcher function is not passed in. Previously an error would be raised.
Note that fetching over the network for each payload is wasteful. Implementers should instead cache public keys when possible and pass in a function to retrieve them, as before.
Converting base entity Profile to DiasporaProfile for outbound sending missed two attributes, image_urls and tag_list. Those are now included so that the values transfer into the built payload.
Fix fallback to HTTP in the fetch_document network helper in the case of ConnectionError when trying HTTPS. Thanks @autogestion.
Ensure handle is always lower cased when fetching remote profile using retrieve_remote_profile. Warning will be logged if an upper case handle is passed in.
Fix regression in handling Diaspora relayables due to security fix in 0.14.0. Payload and entity handle need to be allowed to be different when handling relayables.
Add proper checks to make sure Diaspora protocol payload handle and entity handle are the same. Even though we already verified the signature of the sender, we didn’t ensure that the sender isn’t trying to fake an entity authored by someone else.
The Diaspora protocol functions message_to_objects and element_to_objects now require a new parameter, the payload sender handle. These functions should normally not be needed to be used directly.
Breaking change. The high level federation.outbound functions handle_send and handle_create_payload signatures have been changed. This has been done to better represent the objects that are actually sent in and to add an optional parent_user object.
For both functions the from_user parameter has been renamed to author_user. Optionally a parent_user object can also be passed in. Both the user objects must have private_key and handle attributes. In the case that parent_user is given, that user will be used to sign the payload and for Diaspora relayables an extra parent_author_signature in the payload itself.
When processing Diaspora payloads, entity used to get a _source_object stored to it. This was an etree.Element created from the source object. Due to serialization issues in applications (for example pushing the object to a task queue or saving to database), _source_object is now a byte string representation for the element done with etree.tostring().
No additional changes need to be made when calling handle_receive from your task processing. Just pass in the full received XML or JSON payload as a string with recipient user object as before.
Fix getting sender from a combination of legacy Diaspora encrypted payload and new entity names (for example author). This combination probably only existed in this library.
Fix broken Diaspora relayables after latest 0.2.0 protocol changes. Previously relayables worked only because they were reverse engineered from the legacy protocol. Now that XML order is not important and tag names can be different depending on which protocol version, the relayable forwarding broke. To fix, we don’t regenerate the entity when forwarding it but store the original received object when generating a parent_author_signature (which is optional in some cases, but we generate it anyway for now). This happens in the previously existing entity.sign_with_parent() method. In the sending part, if the original received object (now with a parent author signature) exists in the entity, we send that to the remote instead of serializing the entity to XML.
To forward a relayable you must call entity.sign_with_parent() before calling handle_send to send the entity.
Post.photos entity attribute was never used by any code and has been removed. Child entities of type Image are stored in the Post._children as before.
Removed deprecated user private key lookup using user.key in Diaspora receive processing. Passed in user objects must now have a private_key attribute.
Removed exception class NoHeaderInMessageError. New style Diaspora protocol does not have a custom header in the Salmon magic envelope and thus there is no need to raise this anywhere.
New style Diaspora public payloads are now supported (see here). Old style payloads are still supported. Payloads are also still sent out old style.
Add new Follow base entity and support for the new Diaspora “contact” payload. The simple Follow maps to Diaspora contact entity with following/sharing both true or false. Sharing as a separate concept is not currently supported.
Added _receiving_guid to all entities. This is filled with user.guid if user is passed to federation.inbound.handle_receive and it has a guid. Normally in for example Diaspora, this will always be done in private payloads.
Legacy Diaspora retraction of sharing/following is now supported correctly. The end result is a DiasporaRetraction for entity type Profile. Since the payload doesn’t contain the receiving user for a sharing/following retraction in legacy Diaspora protocol, we store the guid of the user in the entity as _receiving_guid, assuming it was passed in for processing.
Diaspora protocol support added for comment and like relayable types. On inbound payloads the signature included in the payload will be verified against the sender public key. A failed verification will raise SignatureVerificationError. For outbound entities, the author private key will be used to add a signature to the payload.
This introduces some backwards incompatible changes to the way entities are processed. Diaspora entity mappers get_outbound_entity and entity utilities get_full_xml_representation now requires the author private_key as a parameter. This is required to sign outgoing Comment and Reaction (like) entities.
Additionally, Diaspora entity mappers message_to_objects and element_to_objects now take an optional sender_key_fetcher parameter. This must be a function that when called with the sender handle will return the sender public key. This allows using locally cached public keys instead of fetching them as needed. NOTE! If the function is not given, each processed payload will fetch the public key over the network.
A failed payload signature verification now raises a SignatureVerificationError instead of a less specific AssertionError.
Three new attributes added to entities.
Add protocol name to all entities to attribute _source_protocol. This might be useful for applications to know which protocol payload the entity was created from once multiple protocols are implemented.
Add source payload object to the entity at _source_object when processing it.
Add sender public key to the entity at _sender_key, but only if it was used for validating signatures.
Add support for the new Diaspora payload properties coming in the next protocol version. Old XML payloads are and will be still supported.
DiasporaComment and DiasporaLike will get the order of elements in the XML payload as a list in xml_tags. For implementers who want to recreate payloads for these relayables, this list should be saved for later use.
High level federation.outbound.handle_send helper function now allows sending entities to a list of recipients without having to deal with payload creation or caring about the protocol (in preparation of being a multi-protocol library).
The function takes three parameters, entity that will be sent, from_user that is sending (note, not necessarely authoring, this user will be used to sign the payload for Diaspora for example) and a list of recipients as tuples of recipient handle/domain and optionally protocol. In the future, if protocol is not given, it will be guessed from the recipient handle, and if necessary a network lookup will be made to see what protocols the receiving identity supports.
Payloads will be delivered to each receiver only once. Currently only public messages are supported through this helper, so multiple recipients on a single domain will cause only one delivery.
Refactor processing of Diaspora payload XML into entities. Diaspora protocol is dropping the <XML><post></post></XML> wrapper for the payloads. Payloads with the wrapper will still be parsed as before.
Ensure tags are lower cased after collecting them from entity raw_content.
Add support for new Diaspora protocol ISO 8601 timestamp format introduced in protocol version 0.1.6.
Tests are now executed also against Python 3.6.
Don’t crash federation.utils.diaspora.retrieve_diaspora_webfinger if XRD parse raises an xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError.
Made Profile.raw_content optional. This fixes validating profiles parsed from Diaspora hCard’s.
Image no longer has a text attribute. It is replaced by raw_content, the same attribute as Post and Comment have. Unlike the latter two, Image.raw_content is not mandatory.
Entities can now have a children. These can be accessed using the _children list. Acceptable children depends on the entity. Currently, Post, Comment and Profile can have children of entity type Image. Child types are validated in the .validate() entity method call.
Diaspora protocol message_to_objects method (called through inbound high level methods) now correctly parses Diaspora <photo> elements and creates Image entities from them. If they are children of status messages, they will be available through the Post._children list.
Remove legacy splitting of payload to 60 chars when creating Diaspora payloads. Diaspora 0.6 doesn’t understand these any more.
federation.utils.network.send_document incorrectly passed in kwargs to requests.post, causing an error when sending custom headers.
Make sure federation.utils.network.send_document headers are treated case insensitive before passing then onwards to requests.post.
The name Social-Federation was really only an early project name which stuck. Since the beginning, the main module has been federation. It makes sense to unify these and also shorter names are generally nicer.
Update your requirements with the new library name federation.
If you hook to the old logger social-federation, update those to listen to federation, which is now the standard logger name used throughout.
federation.utils.diaspora.retrieve_and_parse_profile will now return None if the Profile retrieved doesn’t validate. This will affect also the output of federation.fetchers.retrieve_remote_profile which is the high level function to retrieve profiles.
Remove unnecessary protocol parameter from federation.fetchers.retrieve_remote_profile. We’re miles away from including other protocols and ideally the caller shouldn’t have to pass in the protocol anyway.
Added Retraction entity with DiasporaRetraction counterpart.
Made guid mandatory for Profile entity. Library users should always be able to get a full validated object as we consider guid a core attribute of a profile.
Always validate entities created through federation.entities.diaspora.mappers.message_to_objects. This is the code that transforms federation messages for the Diaspora protocol to actual entity objects. Previously no validation was done and callers of federation.inbound.handle_receive received entities that were not always valid, for example they were missing a guid. Now validation is done in the conversion stage and errors are pushed to the federation logger in the event of invalid messages.
Note Diaspora Profile XML messages do not provide a GUID. This is handled internally by fetching the guid from the remote hCard so that a valid Profile entity can be created.
Raise a warning if unknown parameters are passed to entities.
Ensure entity required attributes are validated for None or empty string values. Required attributes must not only exist but also have a value.
Add validation to entities with the attribute public. Only bool values are accepted.
Function federation.utils.diaspora.parse_profile_from_hcard now requires a second argument, handle. Since in the future Diaspora hCard is not guaranteed to have username and domain, we now pass handle to the parser directly.
New style Diaspora Magic Envelope didn’t require or like payload data to be cut to 60 char lines, as the legacy protocol does. Fixed to not cut lines.
New style Diaspora Magic Envelope support. The magic envelope can be created using the class federation.protocols.diaspora.magic_envelope.MagicEnvelope. By default this will not wrap the payload message in <XML><post></post></XML>. To provide that functionality the class should be initialized with wrap_payload=True. No changes are made to the protocol send methods yet, if you need this new magic envelope you can initialize and render it directly.
Deprecate receiving user key attribute for Diaspora protocol. Instead correct attribute is now private_key for any user passed to federation.inbound.handle_receive. We already use private_key in the message creation code so this is just to unify the user related required attributes.
DEPRECATION: There is a fallback with key for user objects in the receiving payload part of the Diaspora protocol until 0.8.0.
Loosen up hCard selectors when parsing profile from hCard document in federation.utils.diaspora.parse_profile_from_hcard. The selectors now match Diaspora upcoming federation documentation.
In practise this means the signature has changed for handle_create_payload and build_send from from_user, to_user, entity to entity, from_user, to_user=None.
Class federation.hostmeta.generators.DiasporaHCard now requires guid, public_key and username for initialization. Leaving these out was a mistake in the initial implementation. Diaspora has these in at least 0.6 development branch.
Relationship base entity which represents relationships between two handles. Types can be following, sharing, ignoring and blocking. The Diaspora counterpart, DiasporaRequest, which represents a sharing/following request is outwards a single entity, but incoming a double entity, handled by creating both a sharing and following version of the relationship.
Profile base entity and Diaspora counterpart DiasporaProfile. Represents a user profile.
federation.utils.network.fetch_document utility function to fetch a remote document. Returns document, status code and possible exception. Takes either url or a host + path combination. With host, https is first tried and optionally fall back to http.
Utility methods to retrieve Diaspora user discovery related documents. These include the host-meta, webfinger and hCard documents. The utility methods are in federation.utils.diaspora.
Utility to fetch remote profile, federation.fetchers.retrieve_remote_profile. Currently always uses Diaspora protocol. Returns a Profile entity.
Unlock most of the direct dependencies to a certain version range. Unlock all of test requirements to any version.
Entities passed to federation.controllers.handle_create_payload are now converted from the base entity types (Post, Comment, Reaction, etc) to Diaspora entity types (DiasporaPost, DiasporaComment, DiasporaLike, etc). This ensures actual payload generation has the correct methods available (for example to_xml) whatever entity is passed in.
Fix fetching sender handle from Diaspora protocol private messages. As it is not contained in the header, it needs to be read from the message content itself.
Fix various issues with DiasporaHCard template after comparing to some real world hCard templates from real pods. Old version was based on documentation in Diaspora project wiki.
Test factories and other test files are now included in the package installation. Factories can be useful when creating project tests.
Support for generating .well-known/nodeinfo document, which was forgotten from the 0.3.0 release. Method federation.hostmeta.generators.get_nodeinfo_well_known_document does this task. It requires an url which should be the full base url of the host. Optionally document_path can be specified, but it is optional and defaults to the one in the NodeInfo spec.
Support for generating NodeInfo documents using the generator federation.hostmeta.generators.NodeInfo. Strict validation is skipped by default, but can be enabled by passing in raise_on_validate to the NodeInfo class. By default a warning will be generated on documents that don’t conform with the strict NodeInfo values. This can be disabled by passing in skip_validate to the class.
Any implementations using the Diaspora protocol and Post entities must now use DiasporaPost instead. See “Changed” below.
Support for using validate_field() methods for entity fields and checking missing fields against _required. To use this validation, validate() must specifically be called for the entity instance.
Base entities Comment and Reaction which subclass the new ParticipationMixin.
Diaspora entity DiasporaComment, a variant of Comment.
Diaspora entity DiasporaLike, a variant of Reaction with the reaction = "like" default.
Refactored Diaspora XML generators into the Diaspora entities themselves. This introduces Diaspora versions of the base entities called DiasporaPost, DiasporaComment and DiasporaLike. Any implementations using the Diaspora protocol and Post entities must now use DiasporaPost instead.
Entities which don’t specifically get passed a created_at now get correct current time in created_at instead of always having the time part as 00:00.
Supports well Post type object receiving over Diaspora protocol.
Untested support for crafting outgoing protocol messages.

Our children, our future, return to school this week. The rhythms of autumn begin even though it is still summer. Our public schools are what made America strong, and their future is the future of our country and ourselves. Much of that future depends on our willingness to provide a great education to all of our kids.
At the end of August the State Economist told the Revenue Committees that his estimate of our revenues is up about $80 million for this biennium. It looks like we may have finally turned the corner on state revenues. This is the first projection of an increase in state revenues since the Great Recession began in the summer of 2008. Our people will continue to struggle in a very slowly growing economy for some time. If we can mobilize our innate talent, energy and innovative spirit, the longer term future will be bright.
This was a busy summer! Over the last few months I hosted eight coffee and town hall meetings and spoke with hundreds of citizens across the district. Providing opportunities for citizens to voice concerns, give feedback and get information about their government is a key duty of a State Legislator. But I recognize that your schedules are busy too, and the summer is no exception. In case you were interested, but unable to attend, this update includes highlights from this summer’s meetings and links to further information.
My most recent informational town hall meeting focused on partnerships in education. The speakers panel included many talented and committed individuals who work tirelessly to provide unique learning opportunities to students. Apprenticeships, career shadowing, and other business and online partnerships have kept students in school and enriched their experience. At the meeting, a retired school teacher offered to create a math mentoring program. It is this kind of community support and commitment that we need at every level to ensure the success of upcoming generations.
I also hosted many small informal coffees with citizen driven discussion. Although no topic was specified for these gatherings, the most frequently raised issues were jobs, education, and health care. At the Sodaville coffee I presented the mayor and attending city councilors with a new Oregon flag-theirs had been stolen.
My Get To Know Your Government Town Hall meeting included a speaker from the Department of Consumer and Business Services, who specializes in identity theft protection. She provided us with several useful websites that warranted sharing: Tools for Consumers and Businesses, Creating Strong Passwords, and the Identity Theft Resource Center.

Kimpton Acoustics were employed directly by UK Power Reserve to provide new enclosures to house six new generators on existing UKPR sites. UK Power Reserve were committed to increasing their standby electricity generating capacity due to their success in agreeing new supply contracts with National Gird.
Kimpton Acoustic Engineers designed, manufactured and constructed three separate enclosures on three sites across the South of England and South Wales to house the new gas fired electricity generators. Providing the steel frame and the acoustic panels and measuring 15m long x 8m wide and standing over 4m high, the enclosures were erected on site in time for the generators to be installed. The structure was also designed so that the dry air coolers could be sited on top of the unit to reduce the footprint of the overall installation, but also to reduce the cost of the cooling water pipework.
The design of the ventilation cooling system and the associated attenuation to maintain the reduced noise levels was responsibility of Kimpton Acoustics along with the generator exhausts and silencers that were also provided and installed.
Kimpton also had the responsibility for the cooling of the generators with the necessary pipework installation carried out by qualified pipefitters between the generators, dry air coolers and associated pumps and control valves.

“And that’s a six.” The crowd goes into a frenzy! The recent World Cup opening ceremony was watched and followed by one billion people across the globe. That is the power of cricket or cricket mania. It is amazing how a single sport can help to create so much excitement. How did this game become so popular and widespread?
countries. Cricket is also gaining ground in countries like the Netherlands, Kenya and Nepal, where it is practiced as an amateur sport. The International Cricket Council which is the governing body for cricket, acknowledges that there are over 100 cricket playing countries. In countries like India and Pakistan it is not uncommon to see children playing cricket in alleys using tennis balls and makeshift wooden bats.
Baseball is a very popular sport played mainly in North America, Central America and parts of South America as well as some parts of the Caribbean and East Asia (especially Japan). Baseball and cricket have many similarities. Both are bat and ball games where the teams take turns in fielding and batting. The team that is batting tries to score points or runs while the other team tries to prevent this from occurring and tries to eliminate players from the batting team through their fielding techniques. This is in contrast to games like soccer, hockey or basketball where both teams are free to score at any time.
It is believed that cricket was introduced to Canada by British soldiers, with one of the first matches being played in the 18th century. There is a reference to one of the earliest matches being played by civilians in a small town called in Ile-Ste-Helene near Montreal in 1785. When Canada became a nation in 1867, the game was so popular that it was declared a national sport by the first prime minister, Sir John A. MacDonald. A pitch was laid out at Rideau Hall which is now the official residence of the Governor General of Canada.
The roots of Canadian cricket go back to Upper Canada and to a small town called York, now known as Toronto. During the early years of the 19th century the game was promoted by a young English schoolmaster named George A. Barber who is known as the father of Canadian cricket. He helped found the Toronto Cricket Club in 1827. In fact, until September 2006 the Toronto Cricket Club – now known as the Toronto Cricket, Skating and Curling Club – was the only venue in Canada approved by the International Cricket Council where One Day International Matches could be hosted. Very recently, the Maple Leaf Cricket Club, a cricket ground in King City, Ontario has also joined the ranks.
Here are three reasons cricket-mania has not caught on in Canada as much as it has in some other former British colonies of the world.
After the Civil War in the U.S. (1861-65) the popularity of baseball grew in America. Due to Canada’s close ties with the United States, baseball began to take over from cricket here too.
Cricket season here has always been very short. Indoor sports like basketball can be played year-round.
Not wanting to be identified too closely with either Britain or the U.S., Canada has always tried to claim its own identity. Due to the ground being frozen for a major part of the year, hockey grew out of the environment and helped define Canada as a nation.
But cricket never disappeared entirely. Today, Canada receives immigrants from around the globe and cricket is a national sport in many of these countries.
In order to overcome the adverse weather conditions, cricket is now being offered as an indoor sport by the Toronto District School Board. It is gaining popularity pretty quickly too. Cricket has the ability to bring together people from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds, helps to build team spirit as well as develops individual skills like concentration, patience, decision making and risk taking. Cricket is played not only in Ontario but also in other provinces like BC, Quebec, Manitoba and Newfoundland.
As technology brings down geographical barriers and the world becomes one huge playing field, cricket mania is definitely catching on. Cricket has the power to break down barriers and unite countries, to help build bridges and open up channels of communication which might otherwise have remained closed. It has the amazing power to bring people together.

The China Shipbuilding and Offshore International Company launched the Nigerian Navy’s first of two P-18N offshore patrol vessels on Monday.
The launch ceremony took place at Wuchang Shipyard in Wuhan, China, and was attended by numerous Nigerian dignitaries, including Nigeria’s First Lady, Patience Faka Jonathan. She said her husband Goodluck Jonathan’s administration is committed to recapitalising the Nigerian naval fleet to enable it to address various maritime security challenges, IHS Janes reports.
The vessel was assigned the pennant number F91 (the pennant number F90 is assigned to the NNS Thunder, an ex-US Coast Guard cutter). The offshore patrol vessel’s launched ceremony also marked the hull formation ceremony of the second vessel, F92.
Only the first offshore patrol vessel (OPV) will be built entirely in China as between 50 and 70% of the second ship will be constructed in Nigeria in an effort to enhance local shipbuilding capability and provide technology transfer. Delivery of F91 is expected in the middle of this year and the second vessels is also expected to arrive sometime in 2014, and be completed either late this year or early 2015.
China Shipbuilding and Offshore International Company (CSOC) has also signed a contract to upgrade the Nigerian Naval Shipyard in Port Harcourt so that it can build OPVs and maintain vessels up to 10 000 dwt. Upgrades to the dockyard include a new jetty, a new dry dock and other additions.
Nigeria ordered the two Chinese OPVs in April 2012 and construction began that October. The vessels are based on the Type 056 corvette in service with the People’s Liberation Army Navy. The vessels are 95 metres long, with a draft of 3.5 metres. They are powered by two MTU 20V 4000M diesel engines, giving a speed of 21 knots, and are armed with one 76 mm and two 30 mm guns. Crew complement will be 70 sailors and endurance 20 days. They will be able to carry and support a helicopter off a rear deck.
The Nigerian Navy announced that the vessels would mainly to be used for maritime surveillance, patrol and response tasks. Other roles of the vessels would be protection of offshore assets, Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) patrol and surveillance, search and rescue and oil spill control.

The Slovak milk and dairy industry has had to face the reality that a government with no cash cannot support the free flow of milk any more.
The Velvet Revolution in 1989 brought a rapid decline in the production and consumption of milk and dairy products, caused by a dramatic rise in prices. This drop in consumption is alarming since people aren't getting the neccessary yearly amount of dairy products according to the Ministry of Health. The recommended yearly consumption of milk and dairy products per person is 220 kilograms but in 1997 it is expected to be just 161.2 kilograms per person (see chart 2).
If people do not start consuming more milk and dairy products there could be a serious health problem in the future. "A long-term low consumption of milk and dairy products will cause serious nourishment problems in our people's heath," said Peter Zaška, secretary of the Slovak Association of Dairy Producers.
The reason people aren't getting enough milk is because they can't afford it. Before 1989 the price for a liter of milk was 2 Sk, thanks to the support of the State which financed the production of milk. The government paid 6 to 8 Sk to the producer, so that citizens could buy milk for a very small price. Changes in 1989 and the realization that the state had no money ended this support, causing citizens to see prices of milk and dairy products jump 300 percent.
"A liter of milk was the same price as a liter of beer in 1991 (now it's half)," said Ján Kresák, assistant general director at the Liptovská mliekáreň (a dairy producer in Liptovsky Mikuláň). "A kilogram of cheese was the same price as a kilogram of meat. That is common in Western Europe, but our citizens were not able to afford these products."
Because of low consumption and no more government subsidies, some producers decreased the number of cows, causing an even greater decline in production. The Slovak milk industry is dominated by regional milk processing plants set up around populated centers like Bratislava, Košice, and Banská Bystrica. They were not affected that much by the drop compared to smaller regional producers.
Some of these smaller milk producers have to make less milk during winter because they cannot sustain feeding cows properly for optimum milk weaning. "In Liptovsky Mikuláš," explained Kresák, "our summer production is 2.4 times higher than in winter. In winter we have to bring milk from western Slovakia, and that causes prices to go higher."
Another reason for higher prices is the way milk is packaged now. Milk used to be packaged in old, often smelly plastic bags, which were not very hygienic, but cheap. "It is becoming unacceptable to sell milk in plastic bags," said Kresák. "Milk has to be packaged in paper boxes now. One box though, costs 3 Sk." Calculating the price for production, packaging, and the cut that distributors and shops get, and the price of one liter of milk leaps up to 15 - 20 Sk. These prices are not easy for people to swallow.
Due to the low consumption in the country, producers are looking for new markets, and new ways to attract customers. Slovak milk, and dairy have found that Europe does not need new sources of milk having enough of its own resources. "It is very hard, almost impossible to export milk or dairy products to Western countries," said Ing. František Hladky, general director of Senická mliekáreň (a dairy producer in Senica). "The European market is over-flooded with milk, when the rest of the world is starving. It is not possible for us, because our production is not that big, to export to these countries."
Russia is not considered a good partner because it is very hard for small dairy producers to get paid for their products. "There are new markets in Russia, but it is very hard to force them to pay for the goods," said Hladky.
One way milk producers are looking to promote milk is to renew offering schools milk for students during breaks in classes. This worked before 1989 with the government's support. Today the stumbling block is financing the idea. "The idea is great," said Hladky. "The biggest problem we have now, and what is keeping us from doing it is: Who is going to pay for it?"

The Al Qalam Project was founded in 2013 by Razwan Baig a British Islamic calligrapher. It is a cultural project where each verse of the Quran has been written by a different person. There are more than 6000 Ayats verses in the Quran and all written Quran in the past have been created by two or three calligraphers. For the last 1400 year not a single Quran has been written by non-calligrapher due to the sacred elements of Quranic calligraphy. Richard de Peyer of Bucks County Museum,Aylesbury has said "that stronger understanding of the peaceful nature of Islam will bind local populations closer together." when talking about the project. The Museum arranged for the best of Razwan Baig’s private collection to be displayed alongside objects from the British Museum, The Bodleian Library, Birmingham City Museum and others. This is the largest display of Islamic art outside a major museum in the UK.

Though some bathrooms might be small, they serve lots of functions completely on frequent daily occasions. Make sure the rest room is esthetically attractive which might count in the amount of happiness derived. If you want to renovate, extend or remodel incorporated in your home, it is a good opportunity to possess some features that will elevate property values and provide bliss. See the bathroom options and uncover strategies to raise the interiors without excessive spending.
Within The U . s . States, as opposed to quitting the older homes, many families are trying to remodel bathrooms and kitchens coupled with outdoors areas. Newer homes is really a much more pricey and enhancement throughout the economy helps to ensure that house values are rebounding. Such remodeling can make it feel astonishingly new again.
A stylish, lavish bathroom carrying out a remodeling!
Plan well creating a beautiful bathroom interior that’s simple to manage and welcoming. Possibly you understand the thought of large format tiles of several materials that produces the illusion in the bigger space? It appears sensible less work too, because the grout area has reduced, meaning a smaller sized sized volume of the tiresome cleaning task. Select from the various selection of 12 X 12 and 12 X 24-inch tiles.
Jewel like granite and slate would be the bestsellers, considered differing costs. Glass and porcelain tiles would be the most broadly used too. Tumbled and polished finishes attract lots of buyers. Grey shades choose a great response and hexagonal designs come in vogue. Grey walls can become boring, but small colorful mosaics may help enhance them. Exciting color patterns and shining gemstones might have the most well-liked effect. Evaluate which designs and colors you have to setup and survey industry along with the materials. Using the budget, some excellent choices may be available.
Require artistic and artistic designs and installations. Esthetics is essential and functionality too. Make certain that monotony doesn’t happen since the tiles will remain around for possibly decades unless of course obviously clearly a home is offered which does not occur frequently. Don’t avoid vivid colors and artistic designs that should be incorporated. The dramatic quality increases.
Dark cabinets and lightweight-weight colored floors would intensify the sensation of larger spaces while growing the contrast. Pedestal sinks look good with brushed nickel fittings. A large mirror obtaining a dark frame oblong or square along with a recessed vanity almost completes the recipe. The transformation within the bathroom doesn’t hurt your allowance anymore.
