Having just battled with the lavatory seat in the plane – it refusing to stay up, me finding it impossible to sit down – I won! But only temporarily as there wasn’t any toilet paper, so I had to make do with the rather rough paper towels instead! I mention this, because it’s possibly the one and only negative thing I’ve experienced since the plane took off from Gatwick airport and whisked Colin and I away to Mexico!
Once again, thank you so much for all your holiday suggestions on the previous blog – what to do, see and expect. I made copious notes and now totally appreciate why you enjoyed it so much. It seems ages since I last wrote, and indeed since I last saw you, but I was delighted, although not surprised to see, that the weather in England was, as I often predict when I’m chasing the sun across the globe, pretty near perfect! I’m praying that when we get home I won’t have lost my beautiful deJaeger tulips and narcissus to a lack of rain.
Before I share some of the fabulous memories I’ve made and the photos too, I feel it would be rude of me not to also thank you for my birthday wishes and cards. I really appreciated them all. It was still pretty chilly and grey when I celebrated my 59th birthday – when I see it written down, I still can’t quite believe I’m that old! That said, I don’t feel any more grown up! My sister Jenny and her partner Linda spent Friday night with us, which as always was fun, and then Lucy and Honey popped in on Saturday afternoon along with Sam. Jack was in Barcelona but I knew I’d see him before I went away.
I had a lovely afternoon, although it was a little noisy at times with Lucy’s Chihuahua Bear and Sam’s bulldog Diesel! Bear definitely had the upper hand/paw though and it was really quite funny to watch them playing together. Colin and I went out for dinner that night with my friend Jo and fiancé Simon and once home, we managed to stay awake just long enough for an hilarious game of Articulate!
A few days later Roz drove up from Dorset for some belated celebrations. She was feeling a little under the weather though with a cold and so we lit the fire, watched TV and caught up on all our news. It was great to have some quality time together, and although I love her home in Dorset I do miss her living that little bit closer to me.
I drove up to Lucy the following day and having picked Honey up from school, she and I spent the afternoon making shortbread biscuits for Lucy, wrapping her gifts, and decorating her card for Mother’s Day. I hadn’t realised when I booked our holiday that I’d be away on Mother’s Day, but I know from Instagram and Twitter that many of you did something special. I also know since publishing my book ‘A New Kind of Normal’ that many of you were missing your mums very much on the 31st.
The reviews for my book on Amazon have made me realise even more keenly how cancer cuts through our lives, and things are never the same again. It’s also compounded my immense gratitude for being given this second chance to enjoy my life with my own family – mum, my children, stepchildren and grandchildren. Thanks so much for those reviews – 65 five star! And if you’ve bought the book and enjoyed it, it would mean so much if you could maybe add a few lines on Amazon too. ali-k-productions.com will give you more info.
My Mother’s Day treat from Lucy was to take Honey and I to Cadbury World in the West Midlands. Honey is mad about Roald Dahl’s “Willy Wonka” book, and Lucy even made a golden ticket for her to take. I’d last been to Bournville with my three when Lucy was about nine years old, but it was even better than I remembered. I highly recommend it for a day out – for all children and the child in all of us.
I packed on Saturday and then Colin and I flew to Cancun on Sunday morning, arriving mid afternoon Mexican time. We were staying on the Riviera Maya, which is about 90 minutes drive from the airport. After a 10 hour flight it meant even more sitting, but there was so much to see on the way that the time passed really quickly. As you’ll know if you read my previous blog, neither Colin nor I have ever been to Mexico, and I don’t think either of us were expecting the stunning sub-tropical climate or the stunning scenery. The Riviera Maya is part of the Caribbean coastline of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula. It’s known for its beautiful beaches and well-preserved ruins and is rich with Mayan history. The entire area is covered with mangroves that are dense areas of woodland, and in spite of the heat, they remain very green and lush.
The sun shone from the moment we arrived, and I was very glad that I’d stocked up with Ultrasun before I left. I was particularly impressed with the Face 30 that includes the tan activator and their new Aftersun Tan Booster which helps to naturally build your tan. Have you tried their new Anti Pigmentation Tinted Face 50+? It’s our April Beauty Pick of the month, and although I missed out on it this holiday, I’m definitely going to start using it before we hit the summer at home. I have to praise yet again Decleor’s Gradual Glow, as without it, I would have been as white as the sand when I arrived!
But we hadn’t come all this way just to sunbathe – Colin and I very much wanted to explore the coastline and find out a little more about the Mayan culture and history, and that’s exactly what we did. Our day at the Mayan Ruins in Tulum was memorable, as was our swim in the cenote there. But the icing on the cake was our day trip to the Hidden Island of Holbox…. it for me was truly a heaven on earth. I’ve got so much more to share with you, and some cracking photos too, but I’ll have to include those in my next blog, which I promise I won’t make you wait too long for. I hope you enjoy what’s been included in this one, and as always your comments are gratefully received!
Stay warm, enjoy the weekend and do keep in touch.
Dear Ali, what Beautiful photos of your Holiday. My Daughter went to Mexico a few years ago. She said that was the best Holiday she ever had. Which Hotel did you go to? I am absolutely pashinate about the wild life so it looks an ideal place for a Holiday. I really would appreciate info where the resort was. Thank you my lovely.
I hope you have your thermals on Alison, as we have reverted back to winter, and snow again. So pleased you have had a good holiday.
You look fabulous what ever your doing keep doing it. God bless you.
Hi Ali Glad you had lovely holiday it looks lovely place.
Well we have move house over a week ago all went well, till our dog run away it was nightmare, we got him eventually , think it was because it was strange place.
We are catching up with family and friends. Never move again. HA HA.
Wow Alison I saw you on Sunday back at Q after your Mexican holiday and you look amazing, that is some sun tan. I’m glad you had a great time and I’, looking forward to the last instalment and more photos.
Dear Ali, your holiday to Mexico looks amazing it’s not somewhere I ever thought to visit, but you have definitely changed my mind. How long did you go for.
I had another procedure for the removal of polyps yesterday so am off work for a few day to recover. As ever it’s the waiting for the results that’s the hardest part. They might take me off tamoxifen as this could be part of the problem. Our big trip has been put on hold as the insurance won’t cover me until I get the results, so it’s going to be a close run thing.But my priority is my health, so please God my results will be good.
You are such a busy bee Ali i wish I had half of your energy.
Hi Ali. You look like you had a blast. Holiday photos are stunning. What a lovely place.
Honey looks so grown up. It’s amazing how much they charge in just a very short time.
Thank you for your lovely words. We are just thrilled we were able to bring this little guy home. At first we considered fostering, but I think it would have been too much for Meli. She’s said Goodbye to too many people in her little life. It would have been unfair to let her get used to someone, expect her to share us, and her home, then have to let them go. We never thought in a million years, we would be considered, but someone must have seen something half decent in us, and thought we might be ok people.
Adam has been with us for a couple of weeks now. He’s settled in so well. He’s such a character, very funny. I caught Meli teaching him to write his name. It really got to me. A few years ago, we had to teach her to write her name, AGAIN. We have had so much fun already. I’m under no illusions that it’s all going to be like this all the time, but for now, I’ll take it lol.
We all have a cold just now, last night we were all curled up on the sofa watching your diamonique show. Meli pointed at the TV and said ” Adam, that’s our friend Alison, she’s just been on holiday” he was sitting nodding his wee head like he knew it all. It was so cute.
Meli is loving having a little brother. She is so patient with him. He’s going to have a few issues, but I think with Meli helping him, we will be able to get through.
Don’t get me wrong, she has her moments, but I quite like her just now lol. I am seeing so much of her mummy in her. She was a very patient person and had such empathy. It’s lovely seeing the different levels of her character even at this age.
Graeme is loving the new dynamic in the house. He is so excited for Saturday. They’re having a “boys day out” both going to the barbers then swimming and lunch. I think he’s secretly been a little jealous of our girls days out lol.
I still pinch myself at least once a day, that my life has come full circle. After all the tragedy and hurt and sadness, the house is full of laughter. I have no hesitation in saying, that my beautiful girl is up there and watching over us, and sent this little boy to us.
They are both having a snooze just now, curled up either end of the daybed, I think I am happier than I have been in many years.
I have to wake them soon though, aaargghhh, the bedlam will commence. Adam is helping Meli walk without her walker. They’ve both landed up in a heap more than once, and the giggling is infectious. I was so worried they would hurt each other, but I just let them get on with it now, they both seem to know what they are doing!!uch love from all of us Ali. We’ll see you on your next diamonique show.
So glad you enjoyed your holiday. It looks stunning from our photo’s. We have had some nice sunny days here even though it is still quite chilly which I don’t mind as long as I’m wrapped up for it. I’m not very good in the heat ( being of a certain age !!) . Last year when we had that heat wave I was not at my best at all. I also couldn’t go out far because I couldn’t drive for a month as I was being investigated after having what was thought of as a mini stroke! I’m glad to say I’m ok now apart from having to take certain medication for the rest of my life. I know it could have been a lot worse but when you are used to driving and being independent it takes some getting used to. Thank goodness we had our bus passes or it would have cost a fortune getting to appointments. I hadn’t caught a bus for years either so what with that and the heat I was in a right pickle!!
Anyway , hope you are rested after your hols. We’ll be sticking to holidaying in this country from now on.

Power is a devastatingly addictive device. It can corrupt seemingly strong and moral men, it can lead to the slaughtering of entire civilizations, and it can bring longheld regimes to their knees. Once a person becomes consumed by the quest for power, individuals become nothing more than pawns to be sacrificed in the name of maintaining order and control.
So it has been since the beginning of governed societies and so it will be as long as there are states to seize and wield. It is for this reason that Game of Thrones is such a compelling series.
As its title implies, Game of Thrones is all about the pursuit of the crown in the fictional realm of Westeros. Not wanting to be plagued with an extreme case of FOMO when the newest season finally aired and having a particular affinity for all forms of entertainment involving dragons, I spent much of the last two weeks of my life binge-watching the six completed seasons of the series.
As I made my way through each episode, initially disturbed by all the blood but eventually becoming somewhat desensitized to the number of heads being casually sliced off, I realized that all the violence perpetuated in the show was committed in the quest for power and at the expense of the individual. Or, to put it differently, all the lives being sacrificed were lost in the name of propping up the state.
To make matters worse, aside from a few exceptions, each of the seven kingdoms of Westeros is ruled by landholding lords who care more about maintaining their positions than the welfare of their own subjects. And while many of these lords, Ramsey Bolton and King Joffrey in particular, are heinous creatures drunk off their own authority and without any redeemable qualities, there are still serfs and military members who are all too willing to die to protect a leader who cares nothing for them.
And even though history is replete with obedient subjects, I still couldn’t understand why the people of Westeros were so eager to have someone rule over them. These rulers had nothing of value to offer their people aside from the false promise of security from foreign threats. Yet with each display of corrupt leadership came more unwavering loyalty.
Even the Brotherhood Without Banners, which is a loosely structured group of individuals who refuse to pledge their allegiance to a particular lord, are inclined to follow a leader. What this all inevitably boils down to, and what the show so poignantly demonstrates, is the age-old truth of absolute power corrupting absolutely— no matter which geographical region or ideological background it originated from. And while the series is most likely not meant to be a thesis on the nature of power and its impact on the individual, it undoubtedly is.
But then there came a ray of light.
As I watched the sixth season, I noticed the tides finally changing. The people were sick of fighting for causes that did not directly impact them. They were tired of making the ultimate sacrifice even thought they knew they would suffer oppression – regardless of who leads them. Trusting in governments had truly only made their lives worse. No king or lord was going to liberate them by keeping them in absolute servitude.
In one of the last episodes of season six, as two characters are discussing how they ended up in their predicament, one comments, “Maybe your first mistake was trusting in kings.” How aptly this comment summarizes the entire problem human civilization has grappled with for years. Why do individuals place their trust in authoritarianism?
Fear is one of the strongest human motivators. It can lead people to do things they never thought they were capable of doing. It can lead individuals to capitulate to the whims of leaders they believe will protect them in return.
In what may be the most genius strategy ever executed in the fictional world, Daenerys Targaryen assumes her role as conqueror of Easteros by preying on the fears of the enslaved populations and playing the role of hero in neighboring lands.
As her army steadily begins to grow and she continues to conquer each new government that stands in her way, Daenerys continues to speak of liberating those who have been mistreated by their former masters. While she probably has the most noble heart of any of the characters on the show – aside from the Starks (Jon Snow included) – she still maintains her power through the use of force.
Daenerys encourages her collection of freemen to kill in her name with almost no discretion given to the matter. However, after a group of masters go on a killing rampage over the loss of their slave population, Daenerys, human as she is, begins to exhibit a rule of will over the rule of law she claims to live by; the Achilles heel of so many rulers before her.
Wanting to show her opposition that she is a just and strict ruler to tone down their campaign against her, Daenerys puts the man responsible for slaughtering her people on trial, instead of executing him on the spot like so many others. However, while he is awaiting his day in court, one of her soldiers, overwhelmed by his love and devotion for his queen, utilizes vigilante justice and takes the man’s life.
Showing what happens when someone disobeys her authority, Daenerys has her own man publicly beheaded as he begs her for mercy. But what is particularly enlightening about this scene is that while attempting to stand up for the rule of law she is actually doing it a great disservice by denying her own soldier a trial. For the rule of law to exist, due process would have to be applied equally to each citizen. Instead, only those of higher ranks are given that right.
This angers her newly liberated slave soldiers as they realize they have traded one master for another. And where once the revolting slaves had written “kill your masters in blood,” underneath it now reads “Mhysa is a master,” referring to Daenerys.
For the entire duration of the show up until this point, I had believed Daenarys to be the most incorruptible character on the show. Sure, she kills people, but every character on the show kills and at least Daenerys’ intentions were purer than most. Not only had she spent most her life in exile, she was, for all intents and purposes, a slave in her own right.
Before her brother died by her own authority, Daenerys had been subjected to a wide range of atrocities at his hand. She was beaten and even routinely gifted to men in order to fulfill whatever ends her brother was after. In fact, even her marriage was a result of force since she was gifted to a savage warrior king in order to add more might behind the Targaryen claim to the throne.
All these factors instantly made Daenerys a sympathetic character rooted for by viewers. Since she had endured so much hardship in her life, one had high hopes for her character. But not even Daenerys, the mother of dragons, was able to see how power had slowly corrupted her in spite of her claims of liberation. Without even noticing, she had become the same enemy she claimed to be against.
So long as there have been governments instituted among men, so has the threat of tyranny inevitably loomed around the corner. And as history and even fantasy fiction have shown, the only antidote to tyranny is constant vigilance.
“Winter is coming” is the creed of the House of Stark. It is repeated often both by the Stark family and their northern supporters scattered throughout the seven kingdoms. It is an ominous warning to never let one’s guard down or become complacent in the comfort of the present. Winter, or some other formidable foe, is always waiting in the wings.
For the Starks, winter manifests itself in the fight for power in which they are inevitably caught because of their noble origins. The Starks are unique in that they have never actively pursued the crown. Their main concern has always been survival and maintaining their family honor. But unlike the others, they do not see the throne as the only means to their ends. Even when the dying King appoints Ned as the acting king until his son comes of age, Stark only agrees because the heir to the throne was a tyrant-in-waiting.
While some members of the House of Stark have dabbled with power, Sansa especially, the family is an extreme juxtaposition to the other characters on the show.They seem to understand the nature of power and what those who seek it are willing to do. They also seem to understand the need for constant vigilance. They know there will always be those who fight for total and complete control, and that they themselves must always be prepared to fight back to uphold and protect their dignity as individuals.
There will almost certainly always be an ongoing game of thrones in the real world. As people fight to obtain and maintain their power, the individuals are the ones who lose along the way. As Game of Thrones has so brilliantly shown us so long as societies insist on having a king, or a president, or some ultimate authority figure, winter will always be coming and it will come at the expense of the individual.

As per my SUG / TPVD updates, one of the problems with this issue is that it hasn’t been tripping any of the expected alarms at LL, and thus initially passed unnoticed – even Linden staff routinely in-world on a daily basis who were getting hit by it were initially pushed to believing it was an Internet connectivity issue between them and the servers, rather than anything within the SL services, simply because no monitors were registering a problem.
However, they have been digging into things for the last couple of weeks, and I suspect their blog post is indicative that this is turning into a bit of a head banger in terms of trying to find the root cause(s).
Everyone take the time *today* to go in-world (Linden or alt.) and make 10 teleports. Report back any problems.
And they would have noticed the scope of the problem early on. They themselves are the best alarm system.
Randomness is a symptom of partial disconnects or of capacitance-induced lag!
I suspect that the cause is some form of lag in the sim affecting teleports – in a teleport you briefly exist only as a data packet being transferred from one simulator to another. A loose wire or connector would be all it takes…yes, I’m suggesting a physical rather than programming error. If your data packet is delayed and arrives out of synch…you get dropped.
Maybe, in sims that manifest this problem most often, the old bit of “Turn off, unplug everything, plug everything back in, restore power” could be the missing fix. At the speeds that the simulators (servers) are running, a tiny bit of capacitance lag is all it would take.
That would also explain the seemingly random nature of the problem, too.
I have been experiencing this problem for the last few weeks.. Initially I thought it was a connection issue, but it wasn’t that… so I moved from the Firestorm Viewer to SL’s own, to see if that cured it, and admittedly it doesn’t happen so much, but it still happens.
Not sure if this may help, but today while boating I found a sim crossing that was particularly bad… While crossing between the Hay Harbor & Cats Paw sims, and vice versa, by boat as well teleporting, I was disconnected 8 out of 10 times!!
This really is a total pain, and it must be corrected as soon as possible.

Probably the single most accomplished supercar we’ve ever driven.
Monumentally fast, great steering feel, high-speed balance.
It’s so good it’s almost… undramatic. Turbo’d motor sounds great, but a nat-asp engine sounds better still.
From a standing start less than a decade ago, McLaren has ridden out some early speed bumps and gone on to blow our collective minds with the likes of the 570S, 675LT, and P1. The 720S signals another major milestone: this is the first time McLaren has completely replaced one of its core cars.
Development work started back in 2013, before the 650S had even been announced, and a big chunk of it was done virtually. The first full validation car was only built and driven 11 months ago, so its path to market has been extremely rapid.
McLaren says 91 per cent of the 720S is new, and the enlarged 4.0-litre engine features 41 per cent new content: turbos, intercoolers, cast-aluminium plenum, cylinder heads, crankshaft, pistons, and exhaust. Topline numbers include 710bhp, 568 torques, 249 CO2s, 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds, 0-124mph in 7.8, and 0-186mph (300km/h, if you prefer) in 21.8. There’s also some seriously funky new software to go with the hard bits, and a handful of theatrical flourishes. The doors are double-skinned dihedral jobs that open to 80°, and the engine isn’t just visible through the rear screen, it’s also illuminated.
There’s also lots of carbon fibre. Dubbed ‘Monocage II’, the chassis structure now incorporates an upper structure and windscreen surround, so it’s even more rigid than the 650. Lighter, too: its lightest dry weight is 1283kg, 18kg less than the equivalent 650S. There’s an enhanced centre of gravity, thanks to the engine being mounted 150mm lower than before. A ‘visible monocage’ that exposes the material on the inside of the A-pillar is a £3990 option (more on all that later: things can get very costly indeed). The cowl is also lower: like the magnificent 570, the 720S gets closer to serving up the jet fighter sensation than anything else on the road, and its vision all-round is peerless. The all-glass cockpit isn’t just pretty, it means you can traverse London without mowing down a peloton of cyclists, or reverse park the thing without knackering your street cred. Or the alloys.
The aero work is off-the-scale: the panel ahead of the front wheels evacuates the turbulent high pressure air away and along the side to increase downforce, while a channel at the top of the doors ducts high velocity cooling air into the radiators in the engine bay. There are no bodywork slashes here, despite its mid-engined configuration. The 720S generates 50 per cent more downforce than the 650S managed at full tilt, has double the overall aerodynamic efficiency, and is 15 per cent more efficient in its cooling.
McLaren says it was targeting the excitement of the 675 LT and the refinement of the 570 GT, which are lofty and possibly incompatible goals. It’s also worth remembering that the 720S is pretty much P1-fast in certain increments, and has similar braking capability (from 124mph to standstill in 4.6 seconds across just 117m). Crazy stuff. But it’s also designed to be useable every day, accessible and non-threatening even to numpties, and emits a relatively cuddly 249 CO2s. On paper, it’s almost miraculous.

The guard says he's trying "to get as many guys out as I can with me to try to turn this thing around" as attrition strikes the Hawkeye roster.
IOWA CITY, Ia. — The 2018-19 Iowa basketball season is seven months away. Yet there might not be a more important stretch of calendar for that Hawkeye team — whatever it’s going to look like — than these next four to eight weeks.
At minimum, such comments fuel continued uncertainty about what this roster is going to look like a few months from now.
Jordan Bohannon, the face of the team, understands these are shaky times.
“Obviously, it’s hard,” he said Tuesday.
The junior-to-be guard is known to put a lot on his shoulders. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that he’s taken it upon himself to try to keep the guys that want to be here engaged. He wants to keep them building and fighting for each other, and for big goals.
It's not an easy ask.
Last year’s 14-19 campaign took a toll on guys like Bohannon, Pemsl and Ryan Kriener — second-year players who grew up in Iowa and had experienced a much more positive, 19-win freshman campaign that ended just short of the NCAA Tournament.
To finish 4-14 in the Big Ten, tied for 12th, a year later? In what was an overall down year for the conference? That was a harsh helping of reality.
Sophomore forward Ryan Kriener discusses trying to rebound from a disappointing 14-19 season.
In the meantime, something this group of Iowa players is always up for: Finding motivation.
Kriener found some last season that aligns with a newly implemented philosophy change in strength training.
The past four weeks, strength and conditioning coach Bill Maxwell has had Hawkeye players pumping more iron than ever before. The idea is to be able to pack on more muscle, which often leads to better space-filling, space-holding defense — something that Iowa clearly lacked during the Big Ten grind.
When I look at the nucleus of the guys expected to be in the fold next year, I see potential.
Iowa redshirt sophomore guard Isaiah Moss has entered his name into the NBA Draft early-entry process. But he did say he would be coming back to Iowa.
Bohannon, Connor McCaffery, Isaiah Moss (who said despite his NBA trial balloon he'll be back "for sure" next season), Joe Wieskamp and maybe Maishe Dailey and C.J. Frederick (if he doesn’t red-shirt) in the backcourt; Nicholas Baer, Jack Nunge, Luka Garza, Kriener and maybe Pemsl in the frontcourt.
Keeping them united is the first step. And that’s why Fran McCaffery is lucky to have a driven guy like Bohannon leading the charge.
Bohannon knows that sounds ridiculous, given the program has one Sweet 16 in the past 29 years and two NCAA Tournament wins in McCaffery’s eight seasons.
It sounds ridiculous given the roster remains in flux.
“I’ve always said this: If people aren’t laughing at your dreams, then they’re not big enough,” Bohannon said. “I’m always going to set high standards like that. All my teammates around me, they all have that same mindset."
He declined an interview request Tuesday. Other players I talked to Tuesday night say Cook hadn’t told them his plans. That might just be their polite way of letting Cook announce his decision — turn pro or come back to school — in his own time.
The university posted an article Wednesday night with no real updates, but did quote Cook as saying, "When I have all the information in front of me I will be able to make an informed decision."
As long as he doesn't hire an agent, he has until May 30 at 11:59 p.m. ET to make a decision.
Whichever Hawkeyes are left behind, those are the ones that must band together and stay together.
If they don't start doing that now, next season will get even uglier than this one.

Affirmative action can be defined as the policy which has been created in order to favor the groups who has faced discrimination in any culture. In general, the discrimination of these people is done during the historical times (Garrison& Modigliani, 1994). But, in order to listen to their plight and to bridge the inequality which exist between them and the others, they are supported in a number of social activities such as education, job and other social services in order to provide a better access to education, employment and other things (Niederle et al, 2013).Some of the affirmative action may include the process of mentoring and targeting the minors for the process of recruitment. It is done in order to provide the better job opportunities to the people (Blanchard& Crosby, 2012). Another example includes the use of affirmative action during the times of admissions in college. From a long time, it has been observed that the college has been providing quotas for the people. In order to provide equal opportunity to all the people, affirmative action programs are required to ensure that the barriers between the affirmative actions are broken down, and to ensure that each and every person get the equal break (Hinrichs, 2012).
According to the data analysis, in the National Asian and Pacific American region, it was found that the white men consists of only 48% of the college educated workplace. Also, they occupy around 90% of the total jobs in the field of media, around 96% of the CEO positions and 86% of the top positions in the firms (Kojima, 2012). It is because of affirmative action that discrimination in the society has been decreased. Affirmative programs are helpful as it helps in relieving the world from the social ills in order to match the needs of the minority. Bringing up the students whose ancestors were differentiated in admission process is one such example.Affirmative actions have been implemented in order to ensure that the discrimination is the minimum. It helps the minorities in each and every context. In the society there exists a large number of discrimination on different contexts which had led to a large number of structural problems for the people. Psychological and Social factors are the one which can be eliminated by affirmative programs.

The Texas gulf coast came alive recently as thousands of SkillsUSA competitors and advisors attended the state competition in Corpus Christy. These incredible young professionals were the winners of SkillsUSA regional competitions and they were prepared to compete as well as to enjoy the activities the coast has to offer.

Harrow Council and environmental consultant Ebsford Environmental are joining forces to improve a popular south Harrow park for local residents.
Work at Newton Park will include improved flood defences, river restoration, footpaths, two bridges and three wetlands to increase species biodiversity.
Construction of a flood defence wall at the south-west corner of the road will raise flood protection levels for 13 properties immediately downstream of the park, which were identified at risk of surface water and river flooding in a one in 100-year event.
Graham Henson, cabinet member for environment, said: "We know how much this park is loved and used by all our residents. That's why we want to make it better, more attractive and encourage healthier living.
"Alongside the flood alleviation for the local area, our joint work with Ebsford Environment will also introduce exciting new features that will help the environment, ensure easier access, and help improve the quality of life for local people."

When Prophet Muhammad (S. A. W.) reached in a town near Madina during his historical migration Journey, he (S. A. W.) decided to stop here for a few days for taking rest. In those days near about 500 Ansar (Madina People) reached here to welcome and help him (S. A. W.). During this historical stay Prophet (S. A. W.) laid the foundation of this great mosque. Prophet (S. A. W.) helped other companions to build this mosque.
Like a Reward of One Umra”.
When Muslims under the leadership of Prophet (S. A. W.) were going to perform Umra before conquering Makkah, Quresh did not allow them to enter in Makkah. Muslims had to stop at Hudabiya. (If you travel from Jeddah to Makkah by road, you will see a big RAHAL over the highway. It is very near to Hudabiya and now a days non muslims are not allowed to go beyond this point. Here a police check post is made for checking the identity and passports).
(S. A. W.) but kuffar-e-Makkah did not allowed them to enter in the Holy Makkah. Muslims were stopped in “Hudebiya” (If you travel from Jeddah to Makkah, you will find this place 22 K.M. before Makkah where a big (Rahal) gate over highway is built.
4 . Quba is situated two miles from Masjid-e-Nabvi and taxis , outside Haram take pilgrims to show all Madina’s religious spots in which Quba is included. Yellow cabs take 10 Riyals per person to show all historical, religious spots. This mosque can be visited any day in any time but Saturday visit is said more reward able.
5 . Now, this mosque is beautifully constructed. Basic construction of this mosque was done by Turks. But Saudi government decorated it beautifully. In the courtyard of this mosque a Mehrab is built where the verses of Quran was delivered to Prophet (S. A. W.). Ladies and gents entrance are separate. Ultra modern washrooms are built for pilgrims.

If the industrial revolution transformed the kind of jobs people aspired to have, a slew of new age technologies along with increasing automation today are slowly driving a similar transformation in many facets of the businesses. In the last few decades alone, the rise of digital disruptors has changed the way industries operate and the way business is conducted. But this has taken a completely bearing on the HR processes. In the context of HR, the features that earlier saw automation included administrative processes like payroll, benefits and time management. However, the phenomenon of automation is now moving towards more advanced processes including job performance analysis, management of employee referrals and assessing internal employee social networks. Companies are now taking advantage of this transformation and are expanding their budgets to accommodate investments on technology in HR processes. According to the People Matters HR Technology Study 2015, six out of ten companies are increasing their annual budgets and in terms of the domains are increasing their budgets in HR Analytics (72%), Recruitment Technology (69%), L&D Technology (69%), and bringing mobility across the HR processes (65%).
While automation is still in a nascent stage, HR needs to identify the gaps between business aspiration and business readiness.HR leaders are often too caught up in the aspirational aspects of technologies. There needs to be clarity in terms of the automation pyramid – whether it is at the field level, the controller’s level, an operator’s level or the management level. In this context, for example, it would be worthwhile to ask what aspects of talent management should be automated. Given that different companies are at different stages of growth, HR must prioritize its needs concerning automating processes, whether it is the whole performance management, or just grievances.
It is also essential for the HR and business leaders to reflect on whether the technology will be built and managed in-house or handled by an external party. Even in the case of using external technology, whether one should be involved in the design aspects of customization or not is important to determine. Driving assessments suited to the organizations’ needs or focusing on a high-end off the shelf product are also some parameters that need to be considered. For any organization, the right mix should involve internal product design and external tools that offer the ability to customize.
When HR makes the right business case by emphasizing on a business challenge that needs to be solved, the process or initiative is likely to succeed. Alternatively, when initiatives are seen as a standalone activity led by HR, it is less likely to be taken onboard by the business. In this context, the imperative is to align with the established business goals and then propose the change. Thus, it becomes important to assess whether the business is ready to take on the changes arising out of the implementation of new technologies .The idea of automating HR processes need to be linked to the overall business outcomes it will help achieve in terms of productivity, efficiency and quality of talent.
At MakeMyTrip, where we have a millennial workforce, our own experience of adopting technology tools, whether it is for automating processes or supplementing our existing initiatives has involved a needs assessment and architecting supporting technology to ensure the leadership buy-in. For example, in our learning and development function, we observed that apart from skill building based learning modules, peer to peer learning that employees can access on-the-go was also immensely popular. Since there was a need and opportunity, we created “Trippers academy” which is an app-based platform that enables employees to share their learning with their peers. Users of the app can easily shoot videos of fewer than three minutes and post it to the platform. This initiative saw a lot of traction. So, whether it is learning imitative or performance management related issues, taking note of the factors that drive successful tech adoption will play a vital role in tackling disruption.

The Jew immediately proceeded to the presence of Rasulullah (SM) to lay a complaint, saying: "O Abul Qasim, when there is an agreement between us and you, how is it that this Muslim has smacked me?"
Rasulullah (SM) then asked the Ansari to explain the reason for the smack and as the Ansari told the story the face of Rasulullah (SM) became red with anger.
He said: "Do not grant excellence to some prophets (SM) over others, because on the day of Qiyaamat when the first bugle shall be blown, every one on earth will become unconscious except those whom Allah will exempt. Then the bugle will be blown a second time and all will began consciousness. The first to wake up will be I. Then I will see Musa (A) standing near the Throne of Allah (SWT). I cannot say whether be woke up before me or whether he was saved from becoming unconscious. And I cannot even say that any prophet is more excellent than Yunus bin Mataa."
In these Hadith Yunus is personally mentioned. In the second Hadith it is said: "Do not grant excellence to some prophets over others. This shows outwardly there should be no higher rank for some over others. What is the truth of this statement and its reality?
By way of clarification we quote another verse from the Qur'an Allah (SWT) says: "Those Messengers we endowed with gifts some above others." This shown that Allah (SWT) has created ranks among the prophets (SM) and messenger, some above others and some enjoy virtues above others.
Rasulullah (SM) is reported to have said: "lam the pride of the children of Adam (A) . (And I say this) with out boasting."

We had a nice conversation today in British Literature about the historical situation pertaining to Dryden and on the notion of individuality. We’ve also had some more individual discussions about the exam essay having to do with the idea of the disguise in King Lear. I wanted to emphsize that the disguise or mask has broad implications. Edmund assembles a mask to fool Lear and Edgar. Lear, however, doesn’t assemble a mask. He is blind to his actions, thus he can be fooled by those who would put on the mask, by those who attempt to “fool” him. The disguise, the mask, is a question of “will” and “motive.” So to answer the question about the mask we have to distinguish between “motive” and ignorance, “will” and misconception.
Everyone have a good holiday.

2019 Lexus LS F V8 Review, Release Date, and Price – The new LS surfaced this year, of course, if any Lexus ever endured a possibility to gain back some of that wonderful initial gen LS beauty, this is the one. And you know what, Japanese are heading whole power this time around as gossip group that 2019 Lexus LS F V8 is nearing.
Never ever thoughts that Japanese has in no way presented anything to correctly retaliate in the course of LS’s background, as they have got in no way been bolder compared to what they are currently. Plus, very same gossip is warmed by recognizing of unusual analyze mules showing LS models with mutilated grilles and moderate decklid spoilers. Where there is an Instagram submit displaying a web page from Japanese newspaper showing what could just be complete-blooded, F handled LS. Toyota luxury department is luxurious these days with its design outbursts. Quite lavish. Forcing complete-dimensions luxury sedan into sporty territory generally signifies some tidy but modest design details. They range from really mild versions, as in the event that of A8 Plus, to pretty showy types just in case of seriously chromed S65. But new LS is berserk even with no F notice. Spindle grille is stressful, lighting formed front lights are insane, when outdoors handsomeness of its form is only equalled by Maserati. If you believed F-Sport is overly upset, be sure that Instagram choose of claimed F model. Grille is blacked out and meshed as very same as in the event that of F-Sport, front lights, aspect of wall mirrors and B-pillars are darken also, but aspect intakes appearance so wrathful in cases like this, that they can could effortlessly scare Aventador (and SV one, that is). We have black coloured and very long aspect air vents, massive alloys, and entrance lip able of really negatively affecting people on the streets, which that sporty package does not. Rear and interior stay a full puzzle for the present time.
What could power the very first F variation of LS? V8 normally. But which one? For the first time in its record newest LS does not provide V8, regardless of all of those years again it absolutely was solely driven by seven cylinders and absolutely nothing more. So, an LS F could possibly obtain 5.-liter by natural means aspirated V8 from GS F and RC F models or it might think of something completely new. Guess on the second one. Pointed out pre-existing V8 provides 467 hp, which is hardly adequate for generally all around 600 hp competition. That is why Lexus is making an effort on new twin-turbo V8, probably with 4.-liter displacement, and presumably enhancing close to 600 hp body. It needs to be coupled with an exact same 10-speed automatic in existing use. So, intensely designed LS equipped of hitting 60 miles per hour in about three something secs? Beautiful believed without a doubt.
2019 Lexus LS F V8 could first appearance after that year, but that will be our speculate. Anyways, there is no will need of postponing it a lot of, although Instagram article even states that it is going to take place before, even this year in the course of Tokyo Motor Show. It may range between $115k (S8 and XJR territory) up to $150k (AMG S63, Panamera Turbo, and M760i location) and conclude with $250k (AMG S65 silly price chucked). Alright, the very last numeral is out of the concern as even Panamera Turbo S does not go there. Supplying the proven fact that this is Lexus’s very first time in these oceans it could possibly most likely resolve among described initial two rates racks, it appears to be the type of appropriate.

Here is a story of all stories about how to invite someone to PowerCore. Ready? So, one day Rusty Carter, a mobile Optician, followed Elwood Hemming, a professional Pressure Washer, home, continued to parked and blocked the driveway. Now that’s not scary, eh?
Rusty proceeded to get out of his van and asked, “Do you know what PowerCore is?” Elwood thinking to himself, It’s a chip for my car to make it go faster? but instead he says, ” I don’t know what a PowerCore is?” What are you doing Thursday?.. How much do you like your business?” Elwood continues to say, “Not a whole lot and enough that I don’t want to go back to working my nine to five.” So I showed up Thursday and the rest is history.” Some invitation right? Congratulations Elwood!

(Yicai Global) Aug. 20 –- The third epidemic of highly infectious African swine fever has been discovered in the city of Lianyungang in eastern China's Jiangsu province, which has put a downward pressure on China's mainland-listed pork product firms' stocks.
Some 88 pigs at a farm in Lianyungang in Jiangsu province have died in an unexplained manner since Aug. 15 and some 615 hogs are infected, the Ministry of Agriculture said yesterday.
Affected by the news, the stock of Henan Shuanghui Investment & Development [SZA:000895], the largest meat processing company in China, has slid 13.85 percent from its height on Aug. 2 to CNY22.40 (USD3.27) at the close today. Wens Foodstuff Group [SZA:300498], the biggest pig farming firm, fell 5.39 percent to CNY20.
This is the first spate of the highly fatal animal disease in the country. The first case was found in the province of Liaoning, about 1,300 kilometers away from Lianyungang, on Aug. 3. The second one was in central China's city of Zhengzhou. The illness is not dangerous for humans.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs is working with relevant authorities to trace the specific source of the virus and find out whether there is a link between the three outbreaks.

U.S. Senator Charles Schumer stood alongside CSI students in front of the school’s shuttle bus to announce a bill that would provide discounts for college students who use public transit to get to their campus.
The proposed piece of legislation will provide additional federal funding to transit agencies that offers college students a discount of at least 25 percent in order to offset the costs of providing the students with reduced fees.
President Fritz lent his support to the measure, saying that the bill would greatly support the population of CSI students—more than half—that use public transportation to get to CSI.
Students who don’t drive or live on campus typically take the s93, s62, or a myriad of other options before getting on board the Staten Island Ferry before transferring to CSI’s shuttle bus.
Students say that paying for transit leaves little left in their pockets for other expenditures and said any financial support at all would be welcomed.
Schumer’s office said that at least $250 million would be provided for the piece of legislation.
Schumer said that the cost of commuting is often overlooked when reviewing the costs of college.
Adam Lisberg, an MTA spokesman, told the Staten Island Advance that the agency doesn’t comment on pending pieces of legislation and referenced the expenditures the agency faces by giving students, senior citizens, and disabled persons discounts already—$172 million, $95 million, and $272 million respectively.

Google Analytics is an essential tool for online businesses. Here, Diane from PinnacleCart eCommerce breaks down 7 Google Analytics Custom Reports from expert analysts you need to truly understand how your customers behave.
As an eCommerce store manager, you already understand the value of knowing your customer: Where did they come from? Who are they? How long did it take for them to buy?
If you’re serious about learning how your customers behave, you have something like Google Analytics to track visitor behavior. Even if you manage to set it up correctly, Google Analytics is tricky for most website owners. Beyond demographic, acquisition, and basic behavioral reports, are you really learning who your customers are, why they behave the way they do, and what their buying habits are?
This is great for basic understanding of your audience, but they’re not enough! Google Analytics Custom Reports help you to understand your target audience’s shopping behavior, which you can leverage to create strong, meaningful interactions. If you can understand your potential customers more, you’ll be able to cater your online store and marketing efforts to their exact needs. This will help you attract more buyers, create stronger connections, and boost sales.
These 7 Google Analytics Reports do just that. Each is a custom report developed by industry-leading Google Analytics experts. These reports and more can be found and downloaded in the Google Analytics Solutions Gallery and used in conjunction with any quality eCommerce software available today.
Are you having trouble with web pages not behaving as they should? This is an ever-constant problem in the world of eCommerce. Fortunately, Rachelle Maisner understood that and created the custom analytics report, Site Diagnostics: Page Timing. Use it to discover which pages that are slow to load or have unhealthy bounce rates. Problem pages can be found in an instant, which will give you more time to focus on improving the overall health of your website.
It’s important to note that the report developer, Rachelle Maisner, recommend users switch from the “data” table view to the “comparison” table view to more easily compare load time to bounce rate. This will ensure users see the bounce rate for each page versus the site average.
With careful combination of this information, an eCommerce business can accelerate the time it takes to turn new visitors into paying customers. As a bonus, Van Klinken’s report is a great way to plan loyalty programs, work on customer retention, and entice repeat shoppers!
Additionally, online store owners will also be able to follow the engagement of each keyword and measure revenue metrics.
If you use Mobile Metrics with your online store, you’ll be enhancing your marketing efforts by making sure that posts update when traffic to your website is highest.
Do you find that your eCommerce store looks great on one browser but is whacked out on another? Websites that are incompatible with certain browsers are a well-known problem in the eCommerce world. Use Search Engine Watch’s Brower Report to keep an eye on how well various browsers work for your online business. Not only does this information help you protect your brand image and customers’ trust (nobody trusts a web page that doesn’t display properly), but it can also help you understand performance and bounce rates on each browser.
By now, we all understand the important role that social media plays in driving web traffic to online stores. Erik Wagner’s Dashboard provides the most insight into Social performance.
It makes determining which social networks are successfully driving more traffic to your business a breeze. And by successfully, we mean you’ll be able to see which social sites are sending traffic that actually converts.
Every eCommerce business is different, with its own unique set of needs. That’s why digging deep into how users interact with your site with these 7 reports is so essential to online success. If you’re looking for more help, we recently wrote a guide to Google Shopping for eCommerce Businesses.

We’ve been reading up on New Year Eve party ideas and the ‘Oh so sophisticated’ theme caught our attention. Always adding value to our clients’ experience at Reel Time Photo Booths we thought you might enjoy some ideas to work with when you plan your New Year Eve party. You could even incorporate the photo booth that you hired from Reel Time Photo Booths in creating fun mementos that your guests can take away with them.
Easy white and gold elegance is the trend and you could do most of it yourself. Have fringed garlands of tissue paper and aluminum foil, use glittery card stock letters strung together as a backdrop for the open ended mobile photo booth.
Use fairy lights around the room and add white pillar candles, prettied up with glitter paper as centre pieces. You could even glitz up the bubbly and accompanying glasses.
The elegance of the theme could be portrayed in the tablescape with simplicity in the tablecloth and added dramatic flair in the table runner. White roses are always a winner as they are elegance perfected.
Elegant photo booth props are heart shaped black and white frames, elegant yet sassy eyewear frames, feathered masks, crocheted parasols, classy handheld fans to let only your eyes do the talking. Or, you could always decide to have photo booth props that provides a quirkiness to your ‘Oh so sophisticated New Year’s Eve Celebration’ and take the mickey out of the theme. It is after all your party, and you can have it any way you want to.
You can pull ut all the stops with your ‘Oh so sophisticated’ New Year Eve party.
The photo booth attendant we provide will take care of the snapping, all you need to do is get to the camera and pose like a star. Your guests will have their photo strips within 8-10 seconds of being snapped and you will have a USB drive with all the photos taken on the night. You could even request an album to remember the celebrations by.

If you’re thinking of starting a business, you’re probably considering whether it’s best to start a physical business or one you can run solely online. Knowing what the major differences are in these businesses will help you to make the right decision and get on the path to success.
Does Your Business Idea Work Online?
As great as your idea may be, some ideas just don’t work for the online world. Don’t misunderstand; every business should have an online presence to succeed. However, some ideas may work better when you have an actual business premises for people to visit. Services like those that East Coast Geotech structural engineering offer can ensure your business premises is in fit condition for people to visit. You’ll still need insurance, though, so don’t forget to get the right kind. If somebody steps foot on your premises and gets injured, that’s on you.
Now, some businesses do actually work better as online businesses. Some things just sell better online. You can often reach a market of people more effectively if you market properly online.
Your offline business will often operate during fixed hours. This can be ok, but it could also be detrimental to your business. What if somebody wants to order from you at 2am? An online business is like your 24/7 store front and people can purchase from you no matter what. Bear in mind that if you’re a lone business owner, this also means that people will expect you to be available 24/7. That is, unless you have a bot answering questions or you hire somebody to take care of that side of things for you.
Although more people shop online now than ever before, people still need to trust you if you decide to go for an online business. It’s often much easier for people to buy from an offline business than an online one.
Think about it: customers can’t always be sure that you’re genuine or that you’re a legit business, so you’re going to need to work hard to establish trust. How can they be sure that what you’re offering is right for them? How can they be sure that you will honor any money back guarantees and other promises that you make?
An online business will often take a much smaller investment than an offline business. You’ll need to pay for premises and any equipment, perhaps even workers - and you’ll need money in reserve for rent, insurance, and other things that help to keep your business going. In the long term, and online business has the potential for a higher ROI.
Hopefully, you’ve now got a better idea of what will work for you and your business idea. It’ll have a huge impact on your personal lifestyle, too, so think about this carefully!
