Dr Marin Sawa is a designer and researcher at the intersection of design and science. Her doctoral design-based research, done in collaboration with algal scientists at Imperial College London and completed in 2016, led to the development of Algae Printing, a novel method for depositing and growing cyanobacteria and microalgae on solid surfaces. With its strong emphasis on functionality and scientific realism, her doctoral work is a novel example of the fusion of biodesign and experimental design. Marin continues to lead several collaborative interdisciplinary projects based on her development of Algae Printing including applications in bioenergy, food and air purification with special emphasis on urban living. She has published – see below- and exhibited internationally.

text: The Palestine Festival of Literature was established in 2008. Bringing together writers from all corners of the globe, it aims to help Palestinians break the cultural siege imposed by the Israeli military occupation, to strengthen their artistic links with the rest of the world, and to reaffirm, in the words of Edward Said, 'the power of culture over the culture of power'. Celebrating the tenth anniversary of PalFest, This Is Not a Border is a collection of essays, poems and stories from some of the world's most distinguished artists, responding to their experiences at this unique festival. Both heartbreaking and hopeful, their gathered work is a testament to the power of literature to promote solidarity and courage in the most desperate of situations.

In the summer of 2010, in preparation for our move to Israel, I made a car trip from Dallas, where my wife and I were living, to New York with my son Ezra. Attached to my Toyota Corolla was a hitch upon which was loaded many of our possessions from our Dallas home.
In Salem, Virginia, my car started making strange noises and, within moments, died. I thought: In two days it will be the Sabbath. What do we do now?
Amazingly, Mike Fultcher, the accounts manager at the motel at which we are staying, miraculously located a 1999 Toyota engine for our vehicle and a super mechanic who could install it within 24 hours. Mike truly reinforced my belief in the kindness of strangers.
The kindness of strangers is displayed in Leave No Trace, a complex drama of a father, Will, and teenage daughter, Tom, living off the grid for many years in the forests of Oregon. When they are suddenly discovered by social services, the professionals at the agency want to integrate both Will and Tom into normal society. The challenge: Will, a single father and a war veteran with PTSD, needs the tranquility of the forests to maintain his mental equilibrium. Will he adjust to a new reality living in society with other people?
Will is uncomfortable with the battery of computer-generated questions that he has to answer at the social service agency, but Tom responds positively to the social worker tasked with evaluating her. In spite of Will’s reluctance to join conventional society, social services determine that he has been and is a loving and responsible parent who has educated his daughter well while living on public wilderness land.
The kindness of the social workers is evident when they locate an empty house for Will and Tom in which to live. They also find him a job. Tom meets local teens and finds their friendship pleasant. The neighborhood kids are not exploitative or cruel to the newcomer and they invite her to participate in local agricultural competitions.
A crisis occurs when Will decides to leave the home which social services has found for him and return to the woods. On the way to obtain provisions, Will falls badly injuring himself, and he requires medical attention. Again, locals come to his rescue and nurse him back to health. Over time, it becomes clear that the demons that afflict Will do not affect Tom, who wants to remain in society, not flee from it.
There are no villains in Leave No Trace, only good people who want to help others in distress. Their kindness is manifested in their good actions and from a life philosophy that encourages helping the stranger and those less fortunate than they. Their behavior reflects an internalization of concern for the stranger, an oft-repeated theme that appears frequently, in fact, 36 times, in Scripture.
Most of the exhortations to treat the stranger kindly are coupled with a reminder that we were strangers in Egypt and we should know what it feels like to be a stranger. God commands us to be empathetic, but being empathetic also is an outgrowth of our own slavery experience in Egypt.
Leave No Trace deals with the psychological scars left on servicemen who have seen battle. Emotionally, Will cannot forget the terrible memories of his wartime experiences. They affect his present and future interactions with people, and he cannot rid himself of this memory.
The film suggests that those close to such damaged souls need to recognize the pain of their loved ones, but cannot be limited by their close relationship with them. Tom comes to this epiphany when she decides to leave her beloved father who cannot escape the haunting recollections of the past. It is the kindness of strangers that enables both he and Tom to finally separate and go their individual ways.

A TWO HOUR EVENT Join international bestselling author and Qi Gong Master Blake Bauer for an evening that will outline how to stop hurting yourself and how to create a healthy relationship to yourself that is based on deep self-worth, self-acceptance and self-respect.
Explore why Blake views depression, addiction, physical illness, unfulfilling work and relationship problems as the result of years of hiding our true emotions, denying our life purpose and living in fear. Learn why he sees most forms of suffering as logical cries from our body, soul and subconscious mind asking us to finally value, forgive and be true to ourselves now.
This evening will support you to free yourself from destructive thoughts, habits and situations, so you can think, live and love in healthier and more fulfilling ways.
If you have struggled to figure out how to actually love yourself practically and unconditionally, this evening will make this crystal clear and thus empower you with the tools to feel worthy of health, happiness and genuine love.

Shake It Up Australia together with The Michael J. Fox Foundation is excited to be funding a new research project at the University of Queensland. Their research team will investigate the potential of repurposing an existing blood pressure drug to slow or halt the progression of Parkinson’s disease.
The project’s chief investigator, Dr Richard Gordon of UQ’s School of Biomedical Sciences, said the research would evaluate if forms of the drug could block brain inflammation associated with the progression of Parkinson’s disease.
“There is accumulating evidence that patients develop chronic immune activation and brain inflammation due to the buildup of insoluble protein clumps called ‘Lewy bodies’ in Parkinson’s,” Dr Gordon said.
There is no cure for Parkinson’s disease, which affects 80,000 Australians and 5 million people worldwide.
Shake It Up Australia founder Clyde Campbell said the project could make a real difference in the lives of people living with Parkinson’s disease.
The drug has been prescribed for high blood pressure in a number of countries since the 1990s and has a good safety record for long-term use.
UQ’s Associate Professor Trent Woodruff said the project could enable a rapid translation of the drug to the clinic.
The research collaboration comprises researchers from across UQ, including Dr. Richard Gordon and Associate Professor Woodruff from the School of Biomedical Sciences, Dr John O’Sullivan from The School of Medicine and RBWH and Professor Matt Cooper and Dr Kate Schroder from the Institute for Molecular Bioscience.
Summary: In Parkinson’s disease, the brain’s resident immune cells, called microglia, can become persistently activated due to the accumulation of alpha-synuclein-containing protein clumps called Lewy bodies. This constant immune activation can lead to a cycle of ongoing inflammation in the brain, which can contribute to the gradual death of brain cells and disease progression. Emerging evidence also suggests that ongoing inflammation can contribute to the accumulation and spread of the protein clumps in the brain. Therefore, halting this cycle of inflammation and cell death could prevent the worsening of the disease and potentially improve disease symptoms.
Dr. Richard Gordon’s primary research interest is in characterising the innate immune mechanisms that contribute to progressive neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s and related neurodegenerative disorders. He has extensive research expertise in studying neuroinflammatory responses in pre-clinical models of neurodegeneration. His doctoral and postdoctoral research has uncovered novel microglial signaling pathways that drive neuroinflammation and dopaminergic degeneration in experimental models of Parkinson’s disease. Dr. Gordon’s current research focuses on characterising the immune and inflammatory responses to pathological misfolded protein aggregates that accumulate during progressive neurodegeneration.
Find out what inspires Richard Gordon to focus on Neuroscience and the importance of medical research in our special “Under the Microscope” article.
Shake it Up is committed to finding better treatments and ultimately a cure for Parkinson’s with 100% of all donations directed into Parkinson’s research right here in Australia. Donate today, together we can make a difference.

1.	Is there a certain percentage of debt that these types of judgments normally can be settled for (i.e. 25%, 50%, etc.)? My girlfriend has no job and so there is no money for them to take. Do you feel if I hold out that I should be able to get them to negotiate down and take a partial payment from us to satisfy the full judgment?
2.	One of the creditors/attorneys is requesting that we send in a completed “financial statement”. This financial statement is asking for income, expenses, and assets (etc.). I have read that I should never send in a form like this to a creditor. Do you agree? Should I NOT send them this financial statement and only send in a letter stating what we are willing to pay in exchange for them considering the debt paid in full?
If you are able to help it would be very much appreciated – THANK YOU! I also know these are somewhat detailed questions so if you can only offer some general thoughts and not dive into the details I completely understand.
Just do what you can. I would not recommend sending them personal information, just information on income and wealth that you can use to pay off the debt. I have never gotten a judgement before but you are always the one in control. You can only pay what you are willing to. They cannot force you to pay an amount when you do not have the money in the first place. Paying off debt feels good, though.

Revealed after the Hijrah. This chapter has 13 verses.
1. O ye who believe! Take not my enemies and yours as friends (or protectors),- offering them (your) love, even though they have rejected the Truth that has come to you, and have (on the contrary) driven out the Messenger and yourselves (from your homes), (simply) because ye believe in Allah your Lord! If ye have come out to strive in My Way and to seek My Good Pleasure, friendship unto them: for I know full well all that ye conceal and all that ye reveal. And any of you that does this has strayed from the Straight Path.
2. If they overcome you, they would behave to you as enemies, and stretch forth their hands and their tongues against you for evil: and they desire that ye should reject the Truth.
4. There is for you an excellent example (to follow) in Abraham and those with him, when they said to their people: "We are clear of you and of whatever ye worship besides Allah: we have rejected you, and there has arisen, between us and you, enmity and hatred for ever,- unless ye believe in Allah and Him alone": But not when Abraham said to his father: "I will pray for forgiveness for thee, though I have no power (to get) aught on thy behalf from Allah." (They prayed): "Our Lord! in Thee do we trust, and to Thee do we turn in repentance: to Thee is (our) Final Return.
7. It may be that Allah will establish friendship between you and those whom ye (now) hold as enemies. For Allah has power (over all things); and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
10. O ye who believe! When there come to you believing women refugees, examine (and test) them: Allah knows best as to their Faith: if ye ascertain that they are Believers, then send them not back to the Unbelievers. They are not lawful (wives) for the Unbelievers, nor are the (Unbelievers) lawful (husbands) for them. But pay the Unbelievers what they have spent (on their dower), and there will be no blame on you if ye marry them on payment of their dower to them. But hold not to the ties (marriage contract) of unbelieving women: ask for what ye have spent on their dowers, and let the (Unbelievers) ask for what they have spent (on the dowers of women who come over to you). Such is the command of Allah. He judges (with justice) between you. And Allah is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom.
11. And if any of your wives deserts you to the Unbelievers, and ye have your turn (by the coming over of a woman from the other side), then pay to those whose wives have deserted the equivalent of what they had spent (on their dower). And fear Allah, in Whom ye believe.

But one thing a doer may have trouble with is resting in faith that God will do what you cannot do and fulfill His purpose in you. Doers don't wait well. Sarai must have been a doer. She couldn't rest in faith that God could actually give her a son at her advanced age. She had to "help" God with that promise. But when she worked it out her way, she ended up with Ishmael and problems!
Abram replied, “Look, she is your servant, so deal with her as you see fit.” Then Sarai treated Hagar so harshly that she finally ran away.
In 2018, God is greatly changing my life from one that was predictable, stable and even monotonous to one of great unknowns. Every time God has blessed me with something much better and answered my prayers, He has first removed most of what was my life. It was as if He was wiping the slate clean to start again. It is during those times when the problems seem too big--too many--too impossible, He was also teaching me to rest in Him rather than be a doer.
I don't want an Ishmael.
I can do "good" in my own strength. I can take a project, get a plan, break it down and give it a timeline. I can bring order to chaos. But I can't do the impossible, the miraculous. And that is what I'm praying for now.
And the Holy Spirit said "Rest in Him. Have faith". That is how we get the impossible...the great! But that is harder than doing! This year, in this season, I must learn to "be"...To be at peace in every situation... Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. Philippians 4:11-13 NLT ...To be His child, with childlike faith that says I believe my God is able to do everything He has promised. I can't work it out in my finite mind, but my God all ready has.
The Lord kept His word and did for Sarah exactly what He had promised. She became pregnant, and she gave birth to a son for Abraham in his old age. This happened at just the time God had said it would. And Abraham named their son Isaac. Eight days after Isaac was born, Abraham circumcised him as God had commanded. Abraham was 100 years old when Isaac was born.
Take a deep breath....you don't have to make this happen. You just have to TRUST Him. Breathe out...now, rest in Him. Your Isaac is coming, but it is only in His strength, not yours.

What’s it Like to Live in Emerald Hills in Redwood City, CA?
Meet Perisson Real Estate. In today’s busy, competitive world, you need a dependable, steady real estate company, especially if you’re seeking a special spot of your own in Northern California. At Perisson Real Estate, we consider ourselves part of the community and want to go out of our way to make sure you feel welcome. We hope this handy guide to Emerald Hills will help you feel comfortable getting to know these beautiful surroundings and discovering your future home.
What’s it like to live in Emerald Hills?
There’s a lot we love about California, and if we’re honest, there are some things we’re not all that fond of either. Here in Emerald Hills, just about everyone is here especially for the beautiful surroundings and the privacy. It’s located nicely between San Francisco and San Jose, so you can still see the skylines of these communities. It’s also located by two beautiful lakes and Edgewood County Park and Nature Preserve. It’s a small, friendly community – some families have been here for generations, some are brand new, but all are made to feel welcome.
What types of homes are in Emerald Hills?
Home seekers can find several multilevel homes, ranging from 6,000 to 8,000 square feet or more. Since the view is usually part of the appeal, most homes also include plenty of windows and other features to maximize enjoyment of the natural vistas. The community also loves golf so many homes border a central course and the lake. Other homes also are intended to offer privacy – the Upper Lake area is all privately owned, which can offer a degree of exclusivity.
What’s unique about Emerald Hills?
Though the name doesn’t affect the livability, many people find it interesting that there are several variations of the same words since the 1920s. Some call the area Emerald Hills, some call it Emerald Lake, some call it Emerald Lake Hills, and some call it Emerald Hills Lake. The two earliest subdivisions were Emerald Hills and Emerald Lake Hills, all centered around Emerald Lake. The U.S. Postal Service only required one two-word name, so it officially became Emerald Hills, at least on paper.
Residents also are proud that they live by not just one but two vividly green lakes, which is such an unusual color especially for such a healthy lake.
Where are the good schools in Emerald Hills?
Most students in the Emerald Hills area are part of the Redwood City School District at the K-8 level, and the Sequoia Union School District for grades 9-12. Some schools have received regional and national acclaim, including North Star Academy, a California Distinguished School and a 2012 National Blue Ribbon School.
The nearest higher education offering is Canada College, a community college in Redwood City. There is also access to Bay Area institutions like Stanford University and Menlo College, plus smaller schools like University of Dreams and Pacific Graduate School of Psychology.
What are the best things to do in Emerald Hills?
If you like golf, and meet the membership requirements of the Emerald Lake Country Club, then you can be part of the fun centered around the course and the lake. There’s swimming, fishing, boating and water recreation, plus outdoor social events like concerts.
Even if golf isn’t your game, the region includes access to beautiful natural surroundings in Edgewood County Park and Nature Preserve. It’s a perfect place to walk, hike or ride. The area is also frequented by rock climbers, thanks to Handley Rock, a popular 50-foot sandstone formation.
Where are the best places to shop around Emerald Hills?
The boundaries of Emerald Hills include residential or golf course/country club land, so the bulk of local shopping is at the Emerald Hill Shopping Center, a 3,200-square-foot outdoor locale with a nail salon, fitness center, pizza restaurant, dry cleaners, coffee shop and drinking establishment. Residents wanting a larger retail experience head to the Stanford Shopping Center in nearby Palo Alto, an outdoor mall with fancy shops like Neiman-Marcus and Burberry. Redwood City also has independent retailers, including a bookstore, a woman’s boutique, and an outdoor apparel store.
Is Emerald Hills right for me?
We know that Emerald Hills has been a special area for decades. At one time, it was even considered one of Northern California’s top resorts until economic challenges in the early 20th century made some of these ventures end. But in true California spirit, the dream never went away. Today, about 4,000 residents can’t think of anywhere else they’d rather live and play, and you can be part of this as well. A 1993 decision to declare Edgewood Park an official natural preserve also means that further development and expansion is completely off the table. This means that as a resident, you can access everything, from hitting the trails in the morning for easy, scenic exercise, to relaxing in the evening while appreciating a beautiful sunset, and never have to worry about any big developments moving in or the population changing in a big way.

An examination of the way the Bible and biblical rhetoric were employed by public figures in Canada in the late nineteenth century. Among the conclusions drawn by the author is that Protestant Canadians who perceived French Quebec as a Bible-free zone were mistaken. He argues that Quebec's Catholic culture appears to have been somewhat more biblical, if less "biblicistic", than English-speaking Canadian culture.

From rebuilding engines to sand dune riding, Premier is proud to present one of its own: Tech Sales Rep Cody Lords, whose dedication and expertise have added an abundance of value to Premier Performance and its customers.
Cody’s passion for trucks began early in life. As a kid, he would take trips with his family to the sand dunes near Premier’s Rexburg, Idaho headquarters. There, he would ride his 4-wheeler, where according to him it would break down from time to time. This allowed Cody to fix the vehicle with his father, and develop an enthusiasm for vehicle repairs and upgrades. With this hands-on experience, he developed a desire to become an expert tech.
Together with his friends, Cody would modify and upgrade trucks. His skills developed to a point where he could rebuild an engine in just a couple of hours. Cody has learned to work with his hands, giving him an advantage in the industry. Because he has the experience turning the wrench himself, Cody is well-equipped to dispense advice to Premier customers.
Cody sees the benefits of learning from experience, as well as friends and other enthusiasts alike, as he can develop friendships while creating something amazing at the same time.
Cody started with Premier Performance in November 2014, and spent his first 3 ½ years with the company working on the Customer Service team. That time was valuable in helping him develop the customer service skills necessary to complement his automotive knowledge, and prepared him well for his current role as one of Premier’s Tech Sales Reps.
When a position became available with Premier’s Tech Sales team, Cody jumped at the opportunity. He joined the Tech Sales team in July 2017. Since then, he has helped Premier customers with the aftermarket’s best technical advice and service. Working in this position, Cody has learned one of his most valuable lessons by none other than our Tech Sales Supervisor, Jesse Law. “Work fast, but always be accurate.” Having both customer service and hands-on experience has greatly shaped Cody’s approach to finding customer needs and fulfilling them.
With expert knowledge and excellent service, Cody continues to help make Premier Performance the leader in truck performance.
Stay tuned for more about Cody and the whole team at Premier Performance!

We feel that students can learn better when they are able to dance in a quality environment and that’s exactly what we provide for them.
We don’t just put kids in dance classes by age or grade, either. We evaluate our students on an individual basis and place them in a class that will both challenge and reward them. Each student isn’t just another dancer to us; we get to know our students on a personal level.
All of our students have the opportunity to perform at our Spring Show. In addition, we put on a Holiday Show called “Ye Olde Toy Shoppe” for which all of our students have the opportunity to audition.

Missoula police have been asked by family members to help find a woman that has been missing for over a month.
"Recently, this lady's family has contacted the police department for help in potentially locating their family member," said Missoula Police Public Information Officer Travis Welsh. "She is identified as 41-year-old Jessica Brooks and she appears to be an on-again, off-again Missoula resident. Her family has not heard from her since a Facebook message on November 6."
Although police are helping with the search, there isn't any evidence yet of foul play, however, the family is worried that something malicious may have happened.
"We have no direct knowledge that something bad has happened to her, but the family is concerned because they haven't heard from her since November 6, and that's unusual," said Welsh, who went on to give a brief description of Jessica. "She's a white female, 5'7" about 120 pounds. She has green eyes and blonde hair, but it has been brown in the past."
Anyone with information about Brooks is asked to call Lt. Jake Rosling at (406) 552-6641. If anyone makes contact with Jessica, please tell her to call her family as they are very worried.

The parameter setting of a differential evolution algorithm must meet several requirements: efficiency, effectiveness, and reliability. Problems vary. The solution of a particular problem can be represented in different ways. An algorithm most efficient in dealing with a particular representation may be less efficient in dealing with other representations. The development of differential evolution-based methods contributes substantially to research on evolutionary computing and global optimization in general. The objective of this study is to investigatethe differential evolution algorithm, the intelligent adjustment of its controlparameters, and its application.
In the thesis, the differential evolution algorithm is first examined using different parameter settings and test functions. Fuzzy control is then employed to make control parameters adaptive based on an optimization process and expert knowledge. The developed algorithms are applied to training radial basis function networks for function approximation with possible variables including centers, widths, and weights of basis functions and both having control parameters kept fixed and adjusted by fuzzy controller.
After the influence of control variables on the performance of the differential evolution algorithm was explored, an adaptive version of the differential evolution algorithm was developed and the differential evolution-based radial basis function network training approaches were proposed. Experimental results showed that the performance of the differential evolution algorithm is sensitive to parameter setting, and the best setting was found to be problem dependent. The fuzzy adaptive differential evolution algorithm releases the user load of parameter setting and performs better than those using all fixedparameters. Differential evolution-based approaches are effective for training Gaussian radial basis function networks.

Zeus was the Olympian God of thunder and the sky. Known as the king of all gods and men in Greek Mythology, Zeus ruled the world from his throne on top of Mount Olympus. He was usually portrayed with a thunderbolt on the one hand and a sceptre in the other. His crown, which was made from oak leaves from his sacred tree, was his true symbol of kingship. At times Zeus was known to be unpredictable. Anyone who angered him would face his justice. His respect, however, was gained through his wise, fair and merciful actions. The gods and even the Titans knew that, when they saw the crown approach them, they saw wisdom and they saw the power.
Blessed with Zeus’ essence, let this crown aid you when you feel powerless. Channel your inner king and make your presence felt. Respect others but also demand respect yourself.

There is no doubt that finding an engagement ring in Blue-creek, IN that reflects your love and commitment to the woman you plan to marry is intimidating. If just the thought of making the wrong choice in a Blue-creek, IN engagement ring has kept you from proposing, we are here to help you get the process underway. Of course, if you are reading this page, then it is probably safe to say that you have started looking for an engagement ring in Blue-creek, IN, but still have not found one.
BC Custom Jewelry is here to help guide you through the process of finding not just an ideal engagement ring in Blue-creek, IN, but to ultimately find the perfect fit for the woman of your life. There was a time when all you had to do was find a diamond solitaire engagement ring that would fit snugly, but not too snug, on the “ring finger” of your loved one, but times have certainly changed! Now, you have to consider a number of different things, which makes finding the right engagement ring in Blue-creek, IN incredibly daunting for most men.
If the size of your wallet is a huge factor, there are a couple of things that you need to know. First of all, if you purchase a diamond with a carat weight that is just below the even number (1.9 carats versus 2 carats), you can save about 20%. Also, take a look at the wedding bands that are laden with pave diamonds to see if they might be an option that fits her style and taste. You could save up to 90% if you purchase a Blue-creek, IN engagement ring with a total of just less than 2 carats of pave diamonds when compared to one solitaire diamond of the same weight.
If you are still planning on getting a solitaire engagement ring in Blue-creek, IN, you know what is best for her. When it comes to diamond solitaires, if you want a diamond to appear bigger, you need to compare different settings. The deeper the setting, the smaller the diamond will appear. Generally, a bezel setting will make a diamond appear larger than a prong setting, for example. While you are shopping for engagement rings in Blue-creek, IN, ask to compare diamonds of the same carat weight in different settings so that you can visualize the difference that the settings make.
By now, we hope that you have a good idea of which types of metals your lady normally wears. Some women strictly wear yellow gold, but there are plenty of women who prefer white gold or silver. Typically, gold and platinum are the most popular engagement rings in Blue-creek, IN. Platinum will dig deeper into your wallet than gold will. As a matter of fact, if you were to compare to similar weight engagement rings, the platinum one would cost around $500 or $600 more than the gold one would. This is because platinum is a harder metal, which makes it more durable and less susceptible to scratches, and the prongs are stronger, therefore ensuring a more secure fitting with the diamond.
There is a good chance that you have a mental picture – a vision – of the engagement ring that you want to get for her, but simply cannot find it in any Blue-creek, IN engagement rings stores, or even on the Internet. Maybe you envision an engagement ring with intricate and delicate details along the band. Maybe you have found two rings that, if combined, would make the ring of her dreams. That is where we come in.
At BC Custom Jewelry, we specialize in designing and hand-crafting engagement rings in Blue-creek, IN. We know the anxiety and anticipation that comes with picking out the perfect engagement ring, and will work with you until you are thrilled with the finished product. Feel free to contact us with your ideas so we can tell you more about what we can do for you.

Celebrating the 25th anniversary this year of Youth Work in Dartmouth Matt Pink, Youth Service Leader for Dartmouth and Kingsbridge, intends to mark the occasion because he feels it is important to recognise the work that has been done and the resources that are available. National Youth Work Week takes place 1st-7th November. With cuts in funding, and unfortunately with more expected, he believes it is important to inform the community about the role of youth work, how it empowers and safe guards our young people, enabling them to have a voice in the community.
Matt will be arranging an Open Day when all local stakeholders such as the Mayor, town councillors, Devon County Council representatives and local people will be welcomed into the Youth Centre in Ivy Lane. Displays will show what has been achieved over the past 25 years, bringing people together to see the resources on offer and to answer any questions that might arise. The Open Day will be advertised in local press and with posters around the area. As he says, ‘Come along, have a voice, come and find out about what we are doing, what is available and give us your views on what is important. Youth Work is run by the public sector, paid for by people’s taxes. If you feel it is a necessary and viable service that people value then stand up for it. If public opinion is that it is good for our community and our young people who gain so much from it, then come and find out more.
Several initiatives have taken place over the last twelve months. Amongst these have been residential courses in Snowdonia and Newquay where outdoor activities were experienced and enjoyed. The Youth Service has also been working in partnership with Dartmouth Community College running the Active Learning Programme based around Environmental Education. Young people in Year 8 have been going out once a week for six months during school time doing a BTEC qualification in Work Skills which is credited to be the equivalent of two GCSE’s. This was done in a volunteer capacity working for organisations such as the National Trust and Sharpham Trust Estate, so learning how to manage woodlands, plant trees, improve wildlife habitats in marshlands, harvest willow and the correct usage of tools etc. It is a really substantial piece of work that includes theory as well as practice.
Another first for Dartmouth is the setting up of a Youth Council working alongside and shadowing the Town Council. David Gent and Steve Smith visited the Youth Centre to talk to its members and a constitution is being drawn up. The young people will learn about its standing orders and how a Council works. This will encourage feedback on young people’s needs in the community covering the whole catchment area including the outlying villages. These concerns and aspirations could be about transport, parks or activities. Matt will be the champion for this and will oversee this initiative to ensure it effectively gives young people a voice. Young people are being given the opportunity to stand up in a formal environment to effect change and also, importantly, to take responsibility. It will give them an opportunity to learn about democracy, how politics work and get involved.
The building works at Ivy Lane are now completed and have provided a fantastic educational kitchen with 3 cooking stations. Here they can obtain food hygiene and safety qualifications and learn how to buy, prepare and cook healthy food. What is really exciting is that they have linked in with chefs from BRNC who are passing on their skills.
The Ten Tors Challenge has now come under the Youth Service umbrella and Chris Long has come on side as a volunteer. 45 members have signed up for the training. Tuesday evenings are being used for theory and to learn map reading with a programme running until May when the Ten Tors weekend takes place.
Dartmouth Youth Centre also facilitates, for interested parties, first steps into youth work that lead to Open College Network certificates. This involves volunteering for the youth service for two years and covers a range of skills such as organising and running activities, being involved in decision making, social and personal development, fundraising, communication skills, equality and diversity – a very broad range of skills! This also gives them three OCN credits at Level 1, the equivalent of UCAS points, which can help them gain a university place, looks good on a CV and can help them in future employment.
So, as can be seen, there is a lot going on in Ivy Lane Youth Centre and the town should be proud to have such a facility available for our youngsters. If this has sparked your interest go along to the Centre or get in touch with Matt, he will be very happy to talk with you.

Our Christian Values play a pivotal role in everything we do at school. They help inform our policies and how we behave towards one another.
Daily Collective Worship: The school has an organised programme of Collective Worship which concentrates on a different Value each month. Stories and lessons are told from the bible and other sources to help children learn and practice the value being studied. This is communicated to parents in the Newsletter.
Rewarding the value: Like many schools, we celebrate, recognise and reward children for good behaviour and hard work. At BJR we also celebrate children who have shown or demonstrated the value being studied that month.
Religious Education: As a Church of England School, we view Religious Education as a core subject and were awarded the RE Quality Mark GOLD Standard in Spring 2018. Our Christian Values are taught within RE lessons.

The height and circumference measurements listed here are for the largest-known Japanese magnolia in Atlanta. This tree is located on private property.
This tree is most easily recognized by its large light to deep pink (almost magenta) blossoms early in the springtime. The blooms last about a week after the gray buds pop open. The flowers are a welcome sight to an otherwise leafless mid-March landscape.
Everyone who is familiar with this tree holds their breath around March and early April, because a late freeze in Spring will kill its flowers. The buds turn brown and do not pop out, leaving the tree heavily laden with dead brown unopened blossoms. Sometimes the blooms themselves pose a hazard: they’re slippery!
This tree is another gift from the Japanese. In Japan, people greatly value their tiny spaces. Their yards and gardens are tiny as compared to the large yard areas in the U.S. The Japanese people take advantage of the little garden space they do have by planting smaller species of trees that produce beautiful flowers. The world owes a lot to this culture, which shows us how to see nature in another way.

CCS Proposed 2019-2020 Budget | Planning for student success: Investing in the whole child.
Planning for student success: Investing in the whole child.
Fayetteville – Meeting the needs of the whole child is the top priority of the Cumberland County Board of Education. Last night, the Board approved a budget request to send to the Cumberland County Board of Commissioners. The budget request includes a proposed increase of $8.9 million, which would bring the total allotment from the County to $89,041,982.
To address the needs of the whole child and increase student success, the school system is requesting funding to bring Cumberland County Schools (CCS) to the nationally recommended average of one counselor and one social worker for every 250 students and one nurse for every 750 students over the next six years. Currently, CCS’ 51,000 students are served by 35 school nurses, 59 social workers and 147 school counselors.
School counselors, social workers and school nurses all fall under the Student Support Services Division and provide a wide array of critical services to students, including monitoring mental health issues, supporting homeless students, making home visits, ensuring emergency care plans are in place for students with chronic disorders, supporting students to achieve their personal and professional goals, providing crisis intervention support and making the necessary referrals to community agencies to support the welfare of students.
Cumberland County has a Tier 1 designation and is ranked 20th in the state, which means it is one of the most economically distressed counties in North Carolina. Additionally, 75 percent of CCS students qualify for free-or-reduced-price meals based on their household income. External factors, such as limited access to healthcare and food insecurity, impact the success of students in the classroom.
Investing in programs that promote school safety and community engagement.
More than one third of the requested increase in local funding is based on the projected legislative impact on CCS’ budget, such as state salary increases and class size phase-in requirements.
The Board is required to submit its request to the Cumberland County Board of Commissioners by May 15 for consideration.

Red Planet is the overarching name for a small group of imprints delivering books to specific markets – Red Planet for rock music, Ovolo for building and Hornet for novels. It is an independent publishing house with a small team of both in-house and external staff. While it produces relatively few new titles each year a handful of books have been published in numerous editions and consistently sell in extremely high numbers. Like many companies its working practices, systems and data management have evolved over time without clear thinking about their functions or whether they are truly fit for purpose.
As Red Planet have a lean team the MD, Mark Neeter, plays a vital role in all areas of the business – commissioning, producing books, talking to bookshops and suppliers … a scenario not uncommon in many small businesses. He is so busy dealing with day-to-day issues and with fighting fires that finding the time (and state of mind) to step beyond the practical to focus on the future of the business and a strategy for growth is almost impossible. And yet being able to do this is essential for the on-going health of the business.
When Mark Neeter was introduced to i-Publishing Consultants’ Jo Burges her 30 years’ experience of the publishing industry meant she was able to recognise the challenges facing Red Planet. Significantly, she had a wealth of practical knowledge about more effective ways of working which, if introduced, would enable Mark to think more strategically while at the same time continuing to perform the essential tasks of creating, producing and selling successful books. A crucial element was i-Publishing Consultants’ sensitivity to Red Planet’s ethos, satisfying Mark that they would be able to work together positively, even when a difficult message might need to be delivered.
Some months later work began in Red Planet’s Cambridgeshire offices, involving several days of meetings with individual employees. The purpose of the visit was to uncover the processes used across the entire business – from commissioning to book production to data management, the creation of marketing materials and the website. As outsiders to the business i-Publishing Consultants was able to ask fundamental questions to get to the bottom of what individuals were really trying to achieve. (So often someone does something because it’s what they’ve always done, even though the circumstances in which that task was originally designed may well have changed beyond measure.) Working systematically through an imaginary life of a book ensured that as many scenarios as possible were examined. It quickly became clear that formal processes were often being set to one side in favour of seemingly quicker ad hoc workarounds, with the result that inefficiencies had crept in and information flow (both within and from the company) was not facilitating the maximisation of sales.
Having gathered sufficient information work continued off-site to develop a structured report defining the bottlenecks and risks inherent in the existing operating practices and suggesting solutions. The latter included precise details of things that Red Planet could easily and quickly implement themselves to improve data flow and processes, suggestions for technological developments that would increase efficiency, plus a proposal for a redefinition of roles and responsibilities across the company that would ensure more efficient ways of working in the future. The delivery of the report represented the beginning of an on-going process of change and development, in which i-Publishing Consultants is proud to continue to play a part.
‘As a growing business we had reached a point where we needed to review our operations and look at introducing new ways of working which would see us through the next stage of our expansion. Jo (from i-Publishing Consultants) was incredibly empathetic to our company culture and was superb at helping us to reshape our working methods and approaches as well as helping find new suppliers and outlining the positions we will need to fill in the future.

The name of this stone originates from the Greek word ion which means purple-coloured, or as French would have it, lilla. In this word one can also find the root to the name of the Ionian sea, although the etymology of the name so far has not been established. However, let us imagine and suppose that Ancient Greeks saw the marvellous hues in that sea, the same kind that Iolite can display for you.
The scientific term for this unbridled variegation is pleochroism, or the feature of multiple colours that are spread in different directions depending of the axis of the crystal. If the stone was made into a cube, one side would look lavender blue like sapphire, while the other side could be almost colourless, and viewed from above the stone could appear yellowish grey. Because of this property, Iolite is also called “Dichroite” which is another Greek word that, loosely translated, means “two-coloured rock.” When Iolite is faceted, the experienced cutter should take note of that axis orientation, so the stone can show its best colours.
One must, however, admit that Iolite best resembles Sapphires because of its bluish colour. This gives it a significant place in the jewellery industry, as it can be an adequate substitute for the more expensive sapphire. Sometimes Iolite may even be mistakenly identify as sapphire or tanzanite, although it is softer than sapphire, but tougher than tanzanite. The hardness of Iolite is 7–7.5 on Moh’s scale. In the past, people called Iolite “water sapphire”, although this term is rarely heard today.
Iolite is frequently found in Brazil, India, Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka and Mozambique. Very fine crystals are also found on the Garnet Island in Canada.
Despite Iolite’s long and colourful history, it is considered to be a relatively young stone and insufficiently known. Iolite is a transparent form cordierite, that was named Corderite after the French geologist Pierre Louis Antoine Cordier in 1813, but later Iolite as name prevailed. The first significant discovery of deposits of this great and beautiful, translucent stone was by the American geologist W. Dan Hausel during 1996 in Palmer Creek, Wyoming, and the largest discovered crystal of Iolite is a world record breaking stone, found in Grizzy Creek, Wyoming, measuring over 24,000 carats, and weighting 4.8 kilograms.

You guys are straight up lying! I go out in only two layers, like I did for the music festival on the weekend, and I just end up being miserable the entire time. Cold, and not focusing on the music obviously.
I know it seems like I’m never happy, and that’s for the simple reason that I’m never happy. In the summer, our share house had no air con, and I was just as miserable. I started having these weird dreams as well, ones where I saved the life of the CEO of a Melbourne based heating repair company, and they were so grateful that they fitted out my room with heating. Though they did not install heating for the rest of the house, which is fine with me because SOME people never put out the bins when it’s their turn. As far as I’m concerned, Jane gets no central gas heating until she washes her dirty dishes.
In another one, I saved the life of their company mascot, which was a french bulldog. Or was that the dream I had where I saved the dog, and the RSPCA gave me a medal and said that I can come and play with the puppies any time I like. If it was a competition between puppies and gas heating, I would choose the latter every single time. Summer, I can at least deal with if I don’t listen to those lying weather reports and go to places unprepared. But Winter? There’s no escaping that cold. You just shiver, and lie there miserable. Unless of course you save someone out of the road seconds before a tram runs them over, and they use their amazing connections to hook you up with central heating for years to come. It was a lovely dream.

A substrate that often causes problems with fermentation is poultry manure. The high nitrogen content leads to biological inhibition. In particular, ammonia (NH3) is toxic to the bacteria above a certain concentration. Apart from this, poultry manure contains contaminants such as sand, which present enormous technical challenges.
Nevertheless, this substrate has considerable potential for biogas production.
As a byproduct of the growing worldwide production of poultry meat and eggs, this waste material presents increasing problems. The poultry manure is often stored inappropriately, leading to dangerous pollution of the groundwater and considerable climate damage through methane emissions.
It therefore makes sense to process poultry manure anaerobically in a biogas plant, especially as it is very energy-rich with a gas yield of around 500 m³/toDM (oDM = organic dry matter) So how can the above-mentioned problems in the fermentation of poultry manure be solved?
Both ammonium (NH4) and ammonia (NH3) inhibit the bacteria in the fermenter, whereby ammonia is far more toxic and is therefore the decisive factor for the inhibition.
The two chemicals exist in a temperature-dependent balance with each other. At lower temperatures there is more ammonium and less of the toxic ammonia present. This phenomenon is the basis for our Tlow-process. It enables us to achieve a high total nitrogen content combined with low toxicity. The process works at temperatures from 25 to 30 °C.
Inorganic impurities (such as sand) form sediments at the bottom of the fermenter during the fermentation process. After a short time, considerable layers of sediment form in the fermenter. To prevent this, AEV has developed a patented system for removing these contaminants.
There is a further problem with the separation of the fermentation residue because in conventional separators the abrasive characteristics of the sand lead to enormous costs caused by wear. For this reason, we use special low-wear separators with a long lifespan.
We achieve this without any complex ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis or stripping process.
With this patented Tlow process we have made the initial breakthrough in the mono‑fermentation of poultry manure.

World number one Andy Murray vowed to return as strong as ever after his bid for a maiden Australian Open title was brought to a stunning end by German Mischa Zverev on Sunday.
Melbourne: World number one Andy Murray vowed to return as strong as ever after his bid for a maiden Australian Open title was brought to a stunning end by German Mischa Zverev on Sunday.
Murray has reached the final five times on the blue hardcourts at Melbourne Park and lost every one, four to the man who preceded him as world number one, Novak Djokovic.
With the reigning champion having made an even earlier departure from the tournament in the second round, top seed Murray was considered to have had his best chance to finally bury his Melbourne hoodoo.
"Did I miss an opportunity?" he said. "I don't know. I mean, every year you come is a different chance.
"But you've got Roger (Federer) plus three guys that are pretty much in the top 10 in the world in my half of the draw. There's certainly no guarantees, even if I got through today's match, that I would have gone further.
"It's disappointing to lose (but) I don't feel like this is any more of an opportunity than other years."
Murray had every right to be confident when he arrived at Melbourne Park as the top seed at a grand slam for the first time after winning 28 of his previous 29 matches.
"I'm obviously down about it," said the Wimbledon and Olympic champion.
"It's just tennis. I mean, I had great success for a number of months. Obviously in the biggest events you want to do your best. Obviously that's not been the case here. You know, it happens."
Murray first came across Zverev when they were both Juniors and had no reason to think the 50th ranked serve-volley exponent would return to end his run of consecutive Melbourne Park quarter-final appearances at eight.
Although Murray paid full tribute to Zverev's extraordinary performance there was no escaping that his was the earliest exit from the tournament for a top seed since Lleyton Hewitt in 2003.
"I've had tough losses in my career in the past. I've come back from them," said Murray.
"This is a tough one. I'm sure I'll come back okay from it. But right now I'm obviously very down because I wanted to go further in this event, and it wasn't to be.
"Credit to him. He came up with great, great shots and played a really, really good match. You know, you always finish matches you lose with things you maybe could have done a bit better, but he played some really good stuff."

INTRO: "The Way We Worked" exhibit wrapped up its stint at the Laramie County Public Library on Nov. 16. This Smithsonian-sponsored traveling exhibit features interactive displays on various aspects of working in the U.S. Technology plays a major role, as you might guess. Assembly lines, automated farm equipment, telephone switchboards, manual typewriters, and the dawn of the computer age. The exhibit has moved on to other libraries. But while it was here, it prompted me to look closely at my own work history. My final batch of posts have to do with my life as an arts administrator. It's a specialty I knew nothing about until I tried out several other career paths. I was clueless when I started in 1991 and, by the time I retired in 2016, I had a few clues. I feel it's my civic responsibility to share them with you, no matter how many words it takes.
My first year as literature program manager at the Wyoming Arts Council got off to a rocky start.
But it might not have started at all.
I was so tentative with State of Wyoming application that I filled it out by hand instead of typing it. I don't know what I was thinking. Or if I was thinking. I almost had an advanced degree, which I thought would be a plus. But my only experience in arts administration was as a reluctant volunteer in my university's Fine Arts Series. My only grant request thus far, for the Colorado State University English Department's Visiting Writers Series, was turned down by Fort Fund, Fort Collins' local arts agency, despite my eloquent presentation to the grants committee. I was 0-1 in the grants department.
On the plus side, I was a published writer and well acquainted with the literary world after three years in an M.F.A. program. I did some research and discovered that there actually was an arts administration degree track at a number of universities. What did this kind of person do? A lot, as it turns out. Grants, yes, but a list of other things. Outreach to non-profits, budgeting, arts promotion and marketing, diplomacy with hard-headed politicians, schmoozing with rich patrons.
That last one did not figure in my research. But it's a real thing, as I found out over the years. I am a liberal but a pragmatic one. Many rich people are Republicans. That doesn't make them bad, despite the tenor of today's politics. Many of these rich Republicans have an abiding interest in one or more arts forms, usually those that involve large buildings for symphonies, opera, and the visual arts. Most do not fund avant-garde or political arts projects as that can lead to trouble when some rabble-rousing artist makes art that enrages community leaders. The free spirit in me loves the free spirit in others. As a bureaucrat, charged with spending taxpayer money responsibly, well, you can see the conflict. More on this topic later.
My background in the arts was limited. I didn't attend a live symphony performance until well into adulthood. I was in my 40s before I first attended an opera. None of my K-12 schools had arts education beyond basic drawing and making some simple pottery that could be a bowl or an ashtray, the perfect all-around Christmas gift for Marlboro-puffing parents. None of my family members were artists. They tended to be accountants or nurses or insurance sellers. They would have seen an arts career as impractical. "That's nice as a hobby but how are you going to make a living?"
I digress. I was applying to be an arts administrator in Wyoming. To my surprise, I landed an in-person interview. I drove up to Cheyenne. The staff interviewed me. They were trying to decide if I was someone they could work with. As I had already discovered in the corporate and academic worlds, it was important to be collegial in a small department where people often worked together.
One WAC staffer asked me what made me want to live in Cheyenne. I answered that I didn't want to live in Cheyenne -- I wanted to work at the Arts Council. It seemed like a perfectly logical answer. I didn't know anything about Cheyenne except that it was the capital city and sponsored a big ten-day rodeo every summer. When we moved to Cheyenne, people seemed dismayed that we had moved from Fort Collins, which was a weekend destination for adults and their teen children. Elders went to shop at Sam's Club and the city's mega-mall, eat dinner at one of the cool restaurants. Young adults went to party. And this was before legal pot!
I got the job. I was hired by director Joy Thompson who, by the end of the year, was on her way elsewhere. My first assignment was to drive to the Sundance Institute in Utah to meet with literary types from the region to plan a collaborative literary initiative. Joy told me they needed someone from Wyoming and I was it. So I teamed up with Robert Sheldon of the Western States Arts Federation (WESTAF) and we drove across Wyoming to Redford's place. A great intro to my colleagues in other states. National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Literature Program Director Joe D. Bellamy was there. I met reps from literary organizations like the Aspen Writers Conference and a sampling of writers, including Terry Tempest Williams and Ron Carlson.
I absorbed it all, spoke little. Hiked the mountain and pondered my future. I entered the cliche of "steep learning curve" but was prepared for the challenge. When I went to the office the next week, I was charged with coordinating the initiative for Wyoming. I also was tasked with researching, writing, and editing the WAC's 25th anniversary annual report. A tall order, because I knew nothing about the arts in Wyoming. As the WAC's first full-time staffer for literature I had much to do. I had to show that the investment was worth it.
That introductory year is now a blur. One thing stands out. When the 1992 legislature convened, I began to discover the precariousness of my position. Republican leadership declared war on Democratic Governor Mike Sullivan when he vetoed their latest redistricting plan because it was a clear-cut example of gerrymandering. They retaliated by zeroing out the budgets of all of Sullivan's favorite projects, including the Arts Council. This was a blow. Just when I was figuring out what was going on. I refreshed my resume and waited for the hammer to fall. I alerted my family. At the WAC, we mobilized the arts community and its members flooded legislators with calls and letters -- not sure if we had e-mail at that point. A few Republicans groused in public about what a nuisance artists and arts educators were. That seemed ominous. But the response was paying off.
I began to realize that the arts community in the state was a tight-knit web. Legislators had artist neighbors. Their kids were involved in the school orchestra or drama club. Relatives ran arts groups that brought artists and performers to their small towns. Cutting the arts budget was personal. And personal relationships are crucial to life in a place challenged by long distances and rough landscapes and weather. An important lesson.
This story has a happy ending. The budget was restored in a roundabout way but restored it was. Legislators learned a lesson, a short-term one at that as budget cuts to the arts and arts education were always a threat. I kept the resume updated. I was adding lots of experience as an arts administrator. Still learning, as it turns out. That never changed.
In 1993, the NEA came calling. And I answered.

"Introducing you all to my beautiful, extraordinary, courageous, inspiring life-partner, Nell!"
Iconic Aussie chef Kylie Kwong announced on social media that she married her life partner Nell over the weekend.
The couple have been engaged since 2015, with Kwong telling The Daily Telegraph last year that the Yes postal survey result in 2017 finally made it possible.
“Every day since the yes vote, Nell’s been saying to me, when are we going to get married?” she said at the time.
Just over a year later and she and Nell, a mononymous, award-winning artist based in Sydney, have finally tied the knot.
“Introducing you all to my beautiful, extraordinary, courageous, inspiring life-partner, Nell! We got married on Sunday and we are SOOOOOOO HAPPY!” Kwong tweeted alongside a gorgeous photo of she and Nell together.
Amid the throes of the postal survey period in 2017, Kwong shared a touching tribute to Nell on Facebook, sharing the story of how they met just after Kwong lost her father to cancer.
The couple tragically lost a child in 2012, and on Facebook Kwong wrote that they planned to marry before she turned 50 (today!).

A very real and interesting example of the ways in which assumptions made by archaeologists determine how they view the evidence. The implications, if anyone ever had time (and the guts) to go back and review the documentary records from previous digs, could be huge.
The discovery is part of an investigation by Manchester researchers into the founders of Mycenae, Europe’s first great city-state and capital of King Agamemnon’s domains.
The critical point, he said, was that the woman was thought to have been buried in a richly endowed grave because she was the wife of a powerful man. That was in keeping with previous ideas about Ancient Greece – that women had little power and could only exert influence through their husbands.
‘But this discovery shows both the man and the woman were of equal status and had equal power,’ he said. ‘Women in Ancient Greece held positions of power by right of birth, it now appears.
