The OGHA fields competitive teams from Novice to Intermediate/Senior. Competitive teams have letters after the age-grouping (ie. Novice B, Atom AA, Bantam C, Intermediate/Senior A) to indicate the competitive tier. The winter session starts with spring tryouts beginning in late April for Intermediate AA/Lady 67s, Midget AA/Lady 67s, Midget A, Midget BB, Bantam AA/Lady 67s, Bantam A, Bantam B, Peewee AA, and Peewee B teams. The tryouts for all other competitive teams take place the week after Labour Day weekend. Fees for tryouts are indicated in the Registration section of the website.
Team practices start in late August or early September. Competitive teams play in the Ottawa District Womens Hockey Association (ODWHA) League, which competes throughout Eastern Ontario. League games begin in late September or early October and extend until early February, after which league play-offs and provincial play-downs begin. League play-offs culminate in a city championship day in late March or early April. The Ontario Women's Hockey Association (OWHA) provincial championships usually take place in Toronto in early-mid April.
Competitive teams are on the ice three to five times per week and may have additional off-ice training sessions. The OGHA offers competitive teams standardized practice times each week. The rinks most commonly used for OGHA practices and home games are located centrally in Ottawa.
Registration for the winter session usually opens in March. The registration fee is $825 for players and $500 for full-time goalies, which includes ten home games, two play-off home games, all away games and 13 hours of practice ice. Team members are subject to additional "team fees" to pay for expenses such as the purchase of extra practice ice, tournament entry fees, team equipment, etc. In addition, competitive teams may be required to purchase additional apparel, such as team jackets, as determined by the coach.
Competitive teams participate in several weekend tournaments, locally and out-of-town. These include games on a Friday and entail 3-6 games over 2-3 days.
For more information on the OGHA's competitive program, contact our Vice-President Hockey Operations, at hockey@ogha.info.

This month I read A Lesson in Secrets by Jacqueline Winspear and The Sherlockian by Graham Moore which can both count for the Historical Fiction Challenge. Then, I finally read Witness in Death by J.D. Robb, the 10th book in the In Death series, which I consider sci-fi and am counting for the Sci-Fi Experience. Marg also challenged me to read it for the Great Reading Swap. I also finally carried on in the Chobits series and read volume 5, which counts for the Manga Challenge.
Well, I've read more in January than I did in December, so I guess that's good. But damn, what I wouldn't do to have a month half as good as yours.
I really love this format!
Carrie: lol Glad you are enjoying your reading so far this year!
Cath: Glad to hear that Jan was a better month than normal for you. Hope it continues!

The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts welcomed home native Louisvillian and world-renowned dancer Wendy Whelan in May.
The Kentucky Center presented Ms. Whelan’s latest project RESTLESS CREATURE to a capacity crowd at the Brown Theatre on May 23rd, followed by an insightful post-performance Q&A facilitated by Vice President of Programming and Events, Dan Forte.
Prior to the performance, our staff arranged for Ms. Whelan and Kyle Abraham, one of her RESTLESS CREATURE choreographers and dance partners, to teach a master class at Louisville’s Youth Performing Arts School.
We also worked with Louisville Visual Art to arrange a public exhibition of Ms. Whelan’s photography and a private reception for our Members and Donors.
Due to an increase in State appropriated funding, The Kentucky Center Governor’s School for the Arts (GSA) will serve its largest class ever - 256 students – at Centre College (June 21 – July 11). This is the second year that the GSA Summer Program will take place at Centre College. The program offers conservatory-style study, performances by guest artists, community service activities and much more.
Follow GSA on Facebook for Summer Program updates.
In addition, the program launched a new initiative, The Rising Artists Group, in Eastern Kentucky this spring. The purpose of this group is to help students living in a designated rural area with extreme economic and educational challenges prepare for the GSA annual audition process.
Immediate benefits were realized in that a student from Owsley County did qualify as an alternate attendee for the 2015 program. This is the first time in GSA’s 28 year history that a student from Owsley has achieved this level of recognition.

“We do not consider Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) a mental illness but rather a normal and nearly universal response to the pain, fear, passion, and moral confusion of war. At Soldier’s Heart, we recognize and nurture the wisdom earned through trauma. We offer genuine homecoming and a path for post-traumatic growth to troops, veterans, families, and communities.
Combining the healing power of the Arts with rituals and storytelling, AIH plans to bring veterans and community members together to create a safe place for our warriors to share their experiences and feel the support and courage of a community willing to hear them, share their burden, and heal together.

In a culture obsessed with brands, aesthetics, image and general perfection, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to feel good about ourselves. Perhaps that’s why our internal chatter, or the way in which we speak to ourselves, often includes such harsh self criticism.
Genetically speaking, we can’t do much to change our height, body type, or skin conditions.While we can make healthy food choices, work out, apply makeup, take medications or undergo clinical procedures, none of those efforts address the actual root of the issue.
In fact, the world-renowned plastic surgeon, Maxwell Maltz, discovered that not all his patients’ lives changed dramatically after he altered their physical appearance with surgery. The key factor that differentiated his patients was their self-image- not their reflection in the mirror or the results of their surgeries.
This is the power of healthy self-esteem: built on unconditional worth and love, it is an accurate, honest, and appreciative opinion of oneself as being whole and complete (though not yet completed).
What if, on the path toward feeling good about ourselves, we chose to focus less on our imperfections and more on cultivating what is actually working for us? Instead of doing something to change our appearance, we can instead develop the skills to identify and acknowledge our reality, accept what we have been given, and separate our sense of self from our physical attributes.
We don’t always choose the thoughts that appear in our minds, so our power comes from what we choose to focus on. Cultivating mindfulness, the ability to choose the thoughts to which we attach ourselves and to re-frame our negative beliefs, is one of the most powerful personal practices we can take on. Finding enjoyment in life without over-focusing on the external allows us to feel a greater sense of self-worth, well-being and peace, regardless of our imperfections.
If you think you could benefit from a session on cultivating mindfulness within yourself, contact your Medisys Healthcare team today. A Medisys clinical psychologist can help correct the invisible handicap known as unhealthy self-esteem and put you back on track towards ultimate self-acceptance.

In 2013, I hosted a tea party celebrating the 75th anniversary of Orson Welles’ reading of “The War of the Worlds”, which was broadcast on radio stations nationwide. I have a copy of that reading and played it throughout the tea party. The reading took place in 1938, so naturally I wanted an authentic table setting for the period. What better to use than vintage Fiesta?
Of course, I used newer Fiesta for the place settings, because I don’t have vintage ones in my collection. However, I did use newer pieces that, while not exact, mimicked the original colors offered in Fiesta. Persimmon (close to vintage red) luncheon plates (Herberger’s) were for the savories and sweets, while P86 Yellow (close to vintage yellow) served for the scone course (The Bon Marche in Great Falls, no longer in business). Alternating turquoise (close to the original) and lapis (close to vintage cobalt) tea cups and saucers held my beloved Autumn Haze tea blend, no longer manufactured (cups and saucers bought at Herberger’s). Berwick stems by Anchor Hocking held water (thrift store), and flatware was Bradford by Cambridge Silversmiths (Herberger’s). The tablecloth was a white linen look hemstitched one with matching napkins (Walmart) and a cotton overlay of a tablecloth depicting Mexican scenes-found earlier that day at a thrift store and perfect for the Fiesta plates!
The centerpiece featured my modest collection of vintage Fiesta. The most special is the vintage turquoise creamer. It belonged to my Grandma O’Donnell, but she didn’t care for the color so that’s why I have it. The vintage red bowl has some severe chips on the rim, but I still love it and use it occasionally.
I used my Fiesta Seamist teapot to serve the tea, but won’t use it again as the round handle is simply too difficult to use when pouring tea.
My 75th Anniversary of Orson Welles’ broadcast of The War of the Worlds, featuring Fiesta, with some of my vintage pieces as the centerpiece. We had a great time!

It is my sincere pleasure, along with Sensei Jose A. Caracena, to publish this book: TRADITIONAL KODOKAN JUDO - THE SELF-DEFENSE METHOD OF KYUZO MIFUNE, 10th Dan.
After considerable research, translating and writing - we are very pleased to present this Book on one of Kodokan Judo's Greatest Technicians, Teachers and Leaders. Master Kyuzo Mifune is surpassed only by the founder of Kodokan Judo - Professor Jigoro Kano.
Master Mifune believed that (in addition to randori / shiai) the serious judoka must train in the kata and self-defense skills along with the atemi waza, nage waza and katame waza in order to learn the true Kodokan Judo. With this in mind, he developed the excellent method of self-defense (Mifune Soen Goshin Jutsu) with its 30 techniques included in Traditional Kodokan Judo.
This book is filled with many photos and information not previously published in the western world and we sincerely believe you will enjoy learning about this Very Famous Judoka - A Man for All Seasons, the Great Kyuzo Mifune, 10th Dan.
This Book has been translated into ENGLISH and will be Available in March 2019..!!

With half a pack of puff pastry left from the pie we had earlier in the week this was the perfect lunch to use up lots of leftover veg in the fridge too. It could easily have some streaky bacon or some kind of sliced meat if a fully vegetarian version isn’t to your taste, but as a general rule I would say just use up anything you have in your fridge and top with plenty of cheese! Below are the ingredients I used but adapt as necessary. This would make a tasty dinner with a nice green salad on a weeknight too.
Roll out the pastry to about half the thickness of a pound coin, then score the outside with a knife (not all the way through) to allow the crust to puff up and create an outline for the filling to go up to. It is a good idea to move the pastry to a sheet of baking paper at this point.
Spread the base (inside the scored lines) with the tomato puree. I like to use the back of a spoon to do this evenly and gently.
Gently fry the leeks in a knob of butter and a drizzle of oil for a few minutes, then add the mushrooms and continue to fry until both are softened and starting to brown.
Spread the cooked vegetables evenly over the pastry. Dot the halved tomatoes cut side up all over. Place the mozzarella in the gaps, sprinkle the parsley and season well.
Use the baking paper to pick up the pastry and place the whole thing on a flat baking tray and cook in a preheated oven at 180 degrees (fan oven) for 20 minutes.
Slice into four, and enjoy!

Nantambu Fentress | Black Man, M.D.
I am currently in my 2nd year of medical school. I decided to pursue this path because this is where opportunity lies. This path that I’ve chosen will allow me to have the biggest impact on my community and eventually the world.
Master how you learn best now. If you’re in the sciences, try and understand the how’s and why’s behind everything.
Do not be discouraged, but simply make adjustments.
For me currently it is medical school. Honestly, there have been a lot more downs than ups, but you have to embrace the challenge. The fact that this doesn’t come easy to me strengthens my conviction to conquer it. You have to be in love with the process – The grind.
What is your favorite thing about medical school?
Learning about the human body in such an intimate way that so few people get to experience.
The earlier the submission, the better. Have a few people look over your essays before submitting.
Yes, I took a gap year. I did an internship with HCA (Hospital Corporations of America) to see the administrative side of medicine.
Coaching football and training young athletes.
You have to maintain positive vibes. You have to distant yourself from negativity, which is easier said than done sometimes. In professional school, your mental health is so very important.
I developed a routine. For example, I lift weights and run a lot.
Great! Saving a lot of dinero.
I played football. Football helps me stay driven in school and to always be the best me. I don’t let things beat me and get me down. When something unfortunate happens, I don’t dwell on it. I focus on the solution and respond accordingly. It’s helped foster relationships with my classmates in forming study groups. My classmates are my teammates. If we grind together, we’ll shine together.
Thanks a ton for sharing some of your life and perspective with us Tambu! You have a unique background that I’m happy to be able to help share with others, and your attitude on facing challenges is superb! You’re very much appreciated for everything that you do, and best of luck to you as you continue to excel!

Is Croatia a safe country? How many hidden mines are there, still waiting for their victims? COUNTERATTACK is a project in which dance is more than art and every step a matter of life and death.
The film crew travels by van from Vukovar to Dubrovnik and at every former minefield, now cleared, they meet a number of people: deminers – the ones still working, as well as the retired and the injured ones, soldiers who ran through the minefields during the war, victims of mine accidents, political and expert representatives of government offices and agencies in charge of demining operations. All of them will talk to the dancers and either convince them that it is safe to move around at the given location or express their doubts and fears related to the hidden danger of mines which may still lie hidden in the ground, despite demining actions.
The film COUNTERATTACK will tackle the issue of landmines in the context of environmental pollution and war repercussions that continue to maim, destroy and kill people decades after the war. The moment in which the hosts, confident of their personal safety, agree to accompany dancers to the field and dance, the entire crew will step onto the ground and film what is a dance performance functioning as freedom-advocating activism. COUNTERATTACK, the movie, will disclose the so far undisclosed aspect of the mine problem, but also attach an engaged role to audio-visual and dance/performing arts. Here, art is more than art, and an ordinary step a life-and-death matter.

However, Daybreak investigation shows that the appointment of Asen who was the head of Tax Assessment before the exit of Ayaban has received Cold reaction from majority of the Staff of the Board, stressing that his Confirmation as the Substantive Chairman spells Doom for BIRS and the revenue base of the State.
Meanwhile, the former Chairman Mr. Andrew Ayaban has dragged Benue State Government to the National Industrial Court of Nigeria sitting in Abuja to Challenge the undue termination of his four years Contract appointment as the Chairman of Benue State Board of internal Revenue service.
According to one Mr. Alfa, a staff of BIRS, “the Counsel to Mr. Ayaban, S.T. Hon has argued that Benue State Government, Attorney-General and four others have wantonly breached his Client's right by Constituting an illegal administrative Committee to study the auditor General's report on BIRS between January 2010 to July 2012, whereas, the committee audited him without his knowledge or inviting him to make any presentation”.
Therefore, Hon. Justice E.D. Esele, granted all the injunctions and restrained all the respondents, agents, officials or Subordinates from making any adverse reports, recommendations, or pronouncements against the vested interest of the applicant, Mr. Andrew Ayaban, pending the determination of the application. Efforts to speak to Andrew Ayaban proved abortive as his phone was not accessible as at the time of going to press.
In the main time, a competent source who spoke to DayBreak in Confidence accused a Commissioner who is believed to be a close ally of Governor Suswam to have masterminded the compulsory leave of Mr. Ayaban which initially was for only 3 months but lasted for a whole year before the acting chairman was confirmed. The Source alleged that, “the commissioner and some prominent politicians saw the Ushongo born technocrat as becoming too popular in the State, courtesy of Board of internal Revenue”.
The Source Concluded that, these Selfish politicians were able to convince the Governor that, Ayaban was nursing the North East Senatorial Ambition in 2015, a position that is believed to be reserved for Suswam in 2015 by his admirers even as the Governor has not publicly declared his intention. However, another school of thought claimed that Ayaban was interested in the Kwande/ Ushongo Federal seat at the House of Representatives, which the Commissioner’s Camp are also said to be halving a candidate.
In a related development, Benue State House of Assembly is putting strategic measures to invalidate the appointment of Mr. Gabriel Asen as the Chairman of BIRS. In a motion sponsored at the floor of the house by Hon Baba Ode, he described the decision of the Governor as unlawful. He traced the law establishing BIRS which provides that, approval must be sought and obtained from the House of Assembly before appointment of a service Boss.
Hon Ode wants members of the public to disregard the appointment as it failed to meet Due process.
In his ruling, the Speaker, Benue House of Assembly, Hon Terhile Ayua directed the House Committee on Finance to liaise with the Secretary to the State Government (SSG) and the purported appointee to properly investigate and brief the House on the issue.

NEW YORK >> A lawyer for former Connecticut Gov. John Rowland asked a federal appeals court Friday to overturn his client’s corruption conviction, arguing the government too broadly applied a federal law.
“We can’t comment,” he told reporters after leaving a Manhattan federal courthouse. He is free on bail.
Rowland’s attorney, Andrew Fish, was questioned repeatedly by judges to justify why a federal statute designed to prevent falsifying documents to cover-up wrongdoing shouldn’t apply to a 2009 contract for services between Rowland and a 2010 candidate for Congress named Mark Greenberg.
Fish argued that the agreement was a cut-and-paste general contracting agreement that wasn’t manipulated and made no mention of political consulting.
“I don’t think any jury could find this was a fabricated document,” he said.
“This is creating a fake record to have in the file in case of an investigation,” he said.
Prosecutors successfully argued that Rowland was paid $35,000 to give political consulting to Lisa Wilson-Foley, who in 2012 was running for the 5th congressional district. They say while Rowland claimed to have volunteered for the campaign, the payment was disguised in a contract between Rowland and Wilson-Foley’s husband, who owned a nursing home chain.

Women in the Workplace 2018 is a comprehensive study by Lean In and McKinsey & Company on the state of women in corporate America.
For the last four years, companies have reported that they are highly committed to gender diversity. But our report shows that company commitment has not translated into meaningful progress. Women continue to be vastly underrepresented at every level. For women of color, it’s even worse. Only about one in five senior leaders is a woman, and one in twenty-five is a woman of color.
Progress isn’t just slow—it’s stalled. In this meeting we will discuss why and explore possible solutions.
Women in the Workplace is focused on corporate America. But whether you work in that sector or not, you can use this Circle guide to start a conversation about how the findings from the report may apply to your organization and your experience of the workplace.
Use this icebreaker to see if your Circle members have experienced an uneven playing field at work. Read out the statements below and have members raise their hand if they relate to the experience. Avoid the urge to slip into conversation.
Companies are disadvantaging women from the beginning when it comes to hiring and promotions. The questions below help you to think about why this happens and what can be done.
Have someone in the group read aloud the key takeaways summarized below, then discuss the questions as a group.
Key takeaway 1: Entry-level hiring. Women earn 57 percent of bachelor’s degrees, but they are hired for only 46 percent of entry-level jobs.
Does the gap surprise you? Why or why not?
Why do you think women are hired at lower rates at entry level?
Can you think of anything companies could do to address this imbalance?
Key takeaway 2: First promotion. At the first critical step up to manager, the disparity widens further. Women are less likely to be hired into manager-level jobs, and they are far less likely to be promoted into them. Largely because of these gender gaps, men end up holding 62 percent of manager positions, while women hold only 38 percent.
Why do you think women are promoted less often from entry level to management?
Do you think this happens at your company?
What could companies do to make sure they promote more women into manager roles?
Women are too often the only one. It’s still a common occurrence for women to find themselves the only or one of the only women in the room.
20 percent of women are often the only woman.
Approximately 40 percent of women at senior levels and in technical roles are often the only woman.
45 percent of women of color are often the only or one of the only people of color.
76 percent of lesbian women and 70 percent of gay men are often the only or one of the only people of their sexual orientation in the room.
Women who are “Onlys” have a significantly worse experience than women who work with more women.
They are more likely to deal with microaggressions.
They often feel pressure to perform, on guard, and left out.
They much more likely to have been sexually harassed during the course of their career.
They are much more likely to think of leaving their companies—but they are also more likely to be ambitious.
Far fewer men are Onlys. Just 7 percent of men are often the only or one of the only men in the room.
They face less scrutiny than women Onlys and they most frequently say they feel included.
Have you ever been the only, or one of the only, people of your race, gender, or sexual orientation in the room? How often have you found yourself in this situation?
How did (or do) you feel about it?
What would have improved the experience for you at the time?
What could companies do to make the experience better—or less frequent?
How will it benefit companies if they support women who are Onlys?
Women are more likely to face everyday discrimination in the workplace, often referred to as microaggressions. For 64 percent of women—and 71 percent of lesbian women—microaggressions are a workplace reality.
In addition, 35 percent of women have experienced sexual harassment during their careers. It’s even more common for women who don’t conform to traditional feminine expectations: 55 percent of women in senior leadership, 48 percent of lesbian women, and 45 percent of women in technical roles say that they’ve been harassed.
If you feel comfortable doing so, share your experience of one of these microaggressions with the group. How did it make you feel?
As a group, brainstorm ways to deal with these experiences when they happen.
Women and men point to the need for companies to do more to create a safe and respectful work environment.
Only 27 percent of employees say that managers regularly challenge biased language and behavior when it happens.
Just 40 percent say that disrespectful behavior toward women is often quickly addressed at their company.
And just 32 percent think that their company acts swiftly on claims of sexual harassment.
Women are less optimistic than men about their company’s efforts to curb inappropriate behavior. As one example, only 32 percent of women say that disrespectful behavior toward women is often quickly addressed by their company, compared to 50 percent of men.
When managers regularly challenge gender-biased language and behavior, women are happier and more likely to stay. Yet less than half of managers say they’ve received the unconscious bias training needed to get this right.
What do you think companies can do to prevent microaggressions and support employees who experience them?
Has your company done anything to address harassment in the past year—for example, strengthened company policy or stated that harassment will not be tolerated? Would you like to see them do more?
Companies need to treat gender diversity like the business priority it is. Experts agree that articulating a business case, setting goals and reporting on progress, and rewarding success are key to driving organizational change. More companies need to put these practices in place.
Only 38 percent of companies set targets for gender representation, even though setting goals is the first step toward achieving any business priority.
Only 12 percent share a majority of gender diversity metrics with their employees, even though transparency is a helpful way to signal a company’s commitment to change.
Only 42 percent hold senior leaders accountable for making progress toward gender parity, and only 16 percent hold managers and directors accountable.
Fewer than 20 percent of employers offer on-site child care or subsidies for regular child care.
Does your company offer any of the policies and programs listed above? What impact have they had at your company?
What other policies would you like to see at your company to support diversity and inclusion?
Choose one policy related to equality or inclusion that you’d particularly like to see at your workplace. Think of one small step you could take to try to get that policy put into action—for example, talk to your manager or HR, bring it to your next team meeting.
Go around the Circle one by one and say which policy you most want to see and the small step you can take to get there.
This month, think about an action you can take to promote equality, diversity, and inclusion at your company.
I commit to doing [small step] to promote equality, diversity, and inclusion at my company.

Let’s be honest, there are a lot of companies who promise to deliver offshore staff to you at the right price. And while we understand that cost is a very important driver, we know it’s not just about the price. Low cost doesn’t always deliver good value. A successful offshoring strategy is also about the execution, the support and ultimately, the result. We believe in the Diversify process and approach and so do our clients. Check out just a few of the businesses we have helped adopt a successful offshore approach. They’re reaping the rewards of a meticulously executed offshore program, customised specifically for their business.
"Working with the staff at Diversify is easy."
The staff are efficient, effective and professional and strive to deliver the best outcomes for my business. Diversify work collaboratively with me to identify the best solutions for me, and then assist in implementation. They look after the entire process and then ensure that my staff are well looked after. I am extremely happy with the outcomes achieved by utilising Diversify and would recommend that organisations looking to use an offshore workforce consider them. Diversify takes the time to understand my business and then works with me to identify the best solution for my organisation.
"I would certainly recommend Diversify."
As CEO of a busy and growing software development firm based in Brisbane, I needed to source skilled technical staff in Manila to support our growing number of projects. The team there is excellent and adds real value to my business, allowing me to focus on strategic outcomes. I have found Diversify to be very professional and easy to deal with. Nothing is ever too difficult and they make the process trouble-free. We are really pleased with our staff in the Philippines and how they’re looked after.
"We are very happy to recommend them to anyone looking to achieve good results from an offshore workforce."
As the managing director of a magazine publishing business it is essential that our design work is done to both a very high standard and on time. We have utilised the services of Diversify ISS over the past couple of years. They have taken the time to understand our business needs and have guided us through the process from recruiting to managing our staff. We have been very pleased with the personalised and professional service provided by them.
"I would recommend Diversify to anyone looking to engage staff offshore."
In my experience working with Diversify, the staff are extremely professional and very easy to deal with. They are always quick to respond to any queries with no question being too difficult, making the process from recruitment to staff management flawless. We are very happy with our staff in Manila and the way Diversify looks after them.
"The team at Diversify are an excellent partner in helping us plan and implement our human capital strategy."
They provide a responsive end to end solution that means we have the flexibility and capacity we need to maintain a competitive advantage in our industry. Their strategic expertise, recruitment insights and cultural awareness are strengths that we rely on to build value in our organization through the development of our extended workforce.
"I have pleasure in advising that my experience with Diversify over the past 18 months has significantly exceeded my initial expectations with our offshore team now forming an integral part of our business."
The skills and commitment of the Diversify staff members are the equal of those in parallel positions in our Australian offices that they support. They are eager to learn and to engage with other members of the firm and take on our culture. The premises, together with the professional management, training and recruitment of staff, constitute a professional environment that results in quality results. I would be happy to refer anyone considering outsourcing to your service.
Maybe the idea of a team based in the Philippines seems a little left of centre. Maybe you’re sceptical about it working for your industry. Or maybe you think you’re just not big enough to warrant an offshore team. Many of our clients have had similar concerns – and more – and we were pleased to address them all. Businesses of all shapes and sizes, across a myriad of sectors, are realising the benefits of well executed offshore programs. Keep scrolling to read about the experiences of a few of our happy clients vastly different sized business from a variety of sectors – who are now leveraging the power of successful Philippines-based offshore teams.
Diversify was approached by a major fast food franchise to investigate offshoring specific back office tasks. In a rapidly changing and dynamic sector, and with the breaking down of digital communication barriers, competition has never been so fierce. Customers expect excellent service and great value while maintaining a high quality product.
A leading travel services provider utilised an outsourcing model for all of their data entry requirements for travel bookings. This approach worked in the early stages of their business, however, as things scaled up, the performance of their outsourcing service provider did not follow suit. As the volume of customers increased, they began to experience a range of issues with business continuity, staff turnover, and customer service. These issues caused the business to reconsider their approach and assess whether outsourcing was the right option for their business.

Realizing that my girlfriends house in NY is only about 2 hrs away from the park we decided to take a trip up there for the day. I expected huge crowds and waits, but more on that later.
Left her house around 11 40 and arrived at the park around 2. First thing I noticed was how small the park was and how its right in the middle of a town. Second thing I noticed first parking lot full. We had to park across the street. We paid our 10 dollars and parked in the very last row. Ouch gonna be a long day.
Arrive at the gates and of course our SFGrAdv passes get us right in. We really have gotten our moneys worth, considering this is our fourth trip to a SF park and our third park. Right away we check out the line for Scream, I say forget it. There was only ride I really wanted to check out. S:ROS. First thing my girlfriend says is that it. i say yea. She said it looked small and I had to agree. Then I realized that it is down in like a valley and we were up higher. Right away I noticed that both trains were running, which was a nice surprise. We waited about 45 minutes for the somewheres in the middle. This ride is great. Is it my number 1, no. Everytime I ride something new it becomes my new number one, so I stopped rating them and just try to enjoy them. It was an excellent ride though. Great air, beautiful layout and I also enjoyed the station.
After S:ROS we decided to eat lunch. We at the place across from S:ROS. Decent food, typical SF prices. After eating we caught some of the Batman stunt show. Man these were so cool when I was a youngin, but now they are just lame.
Next up B:TDK. We waited about 35 minutes for the front. I really enjoyed this ride. Very short and not the usual B&M smoothness but very fun. I like the steep lift hill and drop, but miss the roar.
We walked around the park a little bit, noticing some interesting flats I have never seen. eventually we found ourselves at Cyclone. I was hoping my girlfriend wouldnt notice the huge amount of shaking, but she did. This is her first year riding coasters, and well anything really so she still is a little timid. Cyclone was a huge surprise. The drops were so intense and steep. A little rough in the second to last row, but I enjoyed it alot. Real sleeper.
After Cyclone we walked around some more. We were going to wait for Scream but it said a 2 hr wait. I said I would rather ride S:ROS again if we were gonna wait 2 hrs for something. Waited about 25 minutes for the third row. Another great ride. This time it was on the red train I noticed a burnt rubber smell at the end. New wheels??
After S:ROS we wanted to check out Jokers WildCard. It was closed and I still have no clue what it was. Help?? We found our way over by B:TDK again and waited an hour for the front. Another great ride, but I really miss the roar and the length of Medusa east.
Finally we decided to wait for Scream. We saw tons of line cutting. When some lady spoke up the ride op said she didnt care. Still though I am not that ignorant and we waited prob about a half hour. I love the fact you get both an up shot and a free fall. I have never seen this on any of the S&S towers I have been on. Nice touch. Another nice touch was a lady taken pictures of us on the ride before we launched. We later purchased these and my girlfriend has a really nervous look on her face. I think she was more scared of this then anything else.
It was getting late and I said how about one last ride on S:ROS in the front and we will call it a day. We waited about 30 minutes to get to the front row line and another 30 once we were there. I love front seat rides and this was the best of the day. beautiful sunset at the top and the red lights and mist in the tunnels were great.
We got some ice cream picked up our pictures and left. Overall it was a fun day. 7 rides but well worth the trip. Park was fairly clean, not alot of bathrooms though, but I would recommend this park to my friends and family. As I noticed that SFA needs a B&M looper to round out their collection, I think SFNE would benfit from an Impulse maybe or some other launched ride and maybe a mid-sized CCI and they ll be a wonderful park. S:ROS is worth the trip though.
Stayed tuned for PKD and BGW coming this weekend.
Joker's wildcard is just an indoor Trabant.

The Federal Government led by Malcolm Turnbull has reintroduced legislation into Parliament that would see young people refused income support for four weeks, just one week after the same measures were voted voted down in the Senate.
On Wednesday morning Minister for Social Services, Scott Morrison, introduced the Social Services Legislation Amendment (Youth Employment) Bill.
Just last week the Bill, which would effect job seekers under the age of 25, was defeated in the Senate when it was voted 30 to 35.
Independent senators Nick Xenophon, Jacqui Lambie and Glenn Lazarus, along with the Palmer United Party’s Dio Wang and the Motoring Enthusiast Party's Ricky Muir, voted with Labor and the Greens to defeat the bill.
The Government argues that increasing the welfare waiting period to four weeks would create a saving of $241 million.
On the reintroduction of the Bill, Green’s Senator Rachel Siewert accused the Government of punishing young people who could not find work.
“Whether it be six months or five weeks, the community overwhelmingly does not accept that keeping young people off income support will help them gain employment. The Senate confirmed this sentiment by rejecting this same measure last week,” Siewert said.
“The Government should take the new leadership as an opportunity to change tack on supporting young unemployed people rather than pursuing a punitive approach that would entrench poverty.
Senator Siewert accused Turnbull of sticking to the same unpopular policies that Tony Abbott had attempted to introduce.
“It is extremely disappointing that Malcolm Turnbull shares Tony Abbott’s ambitions when it comes to demonising young people and pursuing a hugely unpopular measure that the community and Senate rejects,” she said.
“It is clear that when it comes to reducing unemployment and helping our most vulnerable the Coalition simply has a new leader but the same punitive policies.
Shadow Minister for Families and Payments, Jenny Macklin, said the Government’s welfare policy would push young people into “poverty and hardship”.
“Scott Morrison has still not got the message, reintroducing the cuts to young job seekers into the Parliament again today,” Macklin said.
“First the Abbott/Turnbull Government tried to cut income support for jobseekers under 30 for six months.
In August, Group Manager of Payments Policy at the Department of Social Service, Cath Halbert, conceded at a Senate Committee hearing that Government's the policy was not based on any international evidence.
“The Government’s view is that young people should be encouraged to look for work in the first instance rather than turning to income support,” Halbert said.
“[The] Government’s objective in bringing forward this proposal around the waiting period is to send a very strong message to young people, young job ready people who are able to immediately look for work, that that’s what they should be doing in the first instance rather than relying on income support while they’re undertaking those activities. It’s a policy objective.

Do your lower body blood vessels have a heck of a time fighting against gravity to push your blood back upwards to important organs like your brain?
Do you find yourself constantly having to stop what you’re doing so that you can lie down and put your feet up over your head?
Then have I got the product for you!
Checking out the patio furniture while you wait for your family members to pick paint colors at the hardware store!
Lounging on the balcony of your beach condo!
Even collapsing after a long day of running errands!
Hey Nic, how do you feel?
Why, positively geriatric, <disembodied-announcer-voice>, thanks for asking!
…They do kind of work though.
Blood pooling is a hallmark symptom of POTS. This means that blood vessels in the body don’t adequately contract in response to gravity, and so instead of your blood circulating throughout your whole body the way it’s supposed to, it gets stuck somewhere-it pools. This usually happens in your stomach, legs, and feet, but can also happen in your hands. I used to be able to do a really nifty party trick where I’d hold out my hands to show my audience their odd purple-red color. Then I would hold my hands above my head, give them a little shake and a count of 5, and then put them out in front of me again. By this time, they would be completely white as holding my hands up had “emptied the pool”, if you will. Now I’m on medication and it isn’t as severe any more, so I’ll have to find a new trick (juggling? Maybe not). But I do still have a good amount of blood pooling in my legs, that nothing really seems to help, except maybe the dreaded compression stocking.
I have never been a fan of compression. I happen to be claustrophobic, and I think my thighs are too.
However, one of the very first things that a cardiologist will suggest when you are diagnosed with POTS is just that, compression, and usually lots of it.
I have previously tried the socks (closed toe to kneecap), and let me tell you, those suckers are NOT worth it, unless you particularly like not being able to feel your toes while all the blood simply pools in your upper thighs, giving them an odd, heavy, tree-trunk like feeling.
If gravity is not my friend, I guess my new compression pantyhose will have to be.
Pros: While wearing them, I can stand for longer periods of time; I get dizzy less frequently when I am out and about; my blood pressure is higher, which means my heart rate is lower (a good thing!). Also, my legs are never cold and apparently, from far away and in blurry photographs, my legs just look really tan.
Right? Just really tan, with weirdly pale toes!
Cons: It takes FOREVER to put them on and take them off. I apologize to my sister with whom I share a bathroom at home, as I have added a good 2 minutes to the amount of time I am in there (every time!). When I first put them on in the morning, I actually have to lie down for a minute once they are on, as the exertion gives me tachycardia…but then I have them on, which helps the tachycardia go away faster (tricky, tricky!). Also, it’s impossible to not get runs in them, as a lot of tugging is involved and hangnails that you didn’t even know you had will leave their mark.
I figure I can probably deal with the Cons as the Pros are pretty good.
Now all I have to do is convince everyone else to wear them so that I don’t have to look this good all by myself.
I figured I’d find a lot of people wearing compression stockings at the POTS conference I went to this past weekend. Surprisingly, there was only one other girl imprisoned in— I mean, stylishly sporting— these spandex-nylon blood vessel squishers. Apparently, a lot of people are troubled by the discomfort and hassle, or have given up on them too quickly. I for one, needed about 2 weeks to get used to them and how they affected my bodily functions.
Stockings come both open and close-toed!
I am pretty sure that people were jealous.
Only the cool kids wear them.

The ecology of plants has been Dennis Whigham’s primary interest and his research has resulted in journeys through forests, fields and wetlands around the world. Explorations have lead to studies of woodland herbs – including orchids, vines, wetland species, invasive species and studies of forests in the tropics, temperate and boreal zones. In recent years, studies of interactions between orchids and fungi have lead in new and exciting directions. Whigham’s current focus is on wetlands, including the role of wetlands associated with juvenile salmon habitat in Alaska; the rarest terrestrial orchid in eastern North America; and invasive species. His current passion is to establish the North American Orchid Conservation Center (NAOCC), an initiative of the Smithsonian and the United States Botanic Garden. NAOCC will be based on continentally focused public-private collaborations that will result in the conservation of the genetic diversity of native orchids, initially in the U.S. and Canada.
Whigham obtained an undergraduate degree from Wabash College and a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina. He joined the Smithsonian in 1977. Whigham and his collaborators have published more than 235 articles in journals and books and he has co-edited 10 books.

Moving into modern times, mobile game tool developer Corona Labs has acquired mobile cloud services startup Game Minion. Terms of the deal weren’t disclosed.
Corona has one of the most popular software development kits for making mobile games, with more than 200,000 users. But the acquisition will help accelerate the creation of apps for all developers, according to the two companies. The Game Minion services will be rebranded as Corona Cloud.
Game Minion, headed by Mohamed Hamedi (pictured right), has developed a full suite of cross-platform cloud services that mobile game developers can adopt and easily insert into their games. The features include multiplayer gaming, push notifications, sophisticated analytics, cloud storage, leaderboards, achievements, content delivery, and social sharing. Palo Alto, Calif.-based Corona calls it a “backend as a service,” or BaaS. Together, the two companies will combine on-device mobile tools with the cloud.
While Corona Cloud will be available to all mobile developers, Corona SDK’s community will enjoy faster development speeds due to integration of the on-device Corona SDK with a complete a backend service.
Luh says it will make Corona developers even more efficient. Corona Cloud is in closed-beta testing and is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2013. Game Minion had funding from Draper Investment Co. Corona says that apps created with its kit have been played more than a billion times in the last 10 months.

7th December: Singers and Musicians. 8.15 start. Free entry.
14th December: The Strid Den Miller Trio.
A fusion of two popular acts, Strid (Jennie Kiff and Simon Allan) and Den Miller, who appear regularly on the local acoustic music scene. A few years ago, Strid (Jennie and Simon) and Den regularly seemed to sing at the same pubs, open mic nights and folk clubs and got to know each other's set fairly well. Den would put an extra harmony here and there, a bit of keyboard maybe. Then Strid started playing a couple of Den's songs as part of their set now and again. When they discovered they were going to be sharing a double-bill booking, they thought they may as well make an official trio for a good part of it: they’ve been together ever since.
The mix of Simon's virtuoso guitar playing, Den's piano proficiency and three voices in harmony, adds a different dimension to the material, bringing the songs to life more than when they were performing as separate entities. The repertoire consists of Den's songs, and an eclectic mix of tasteful covers, something for everyone.
Crickmore: Crewe is a four piece band who, each December, perform a programme of Gallery Carols and Christmas Curios.
The line up consists of ex-Wenchall members Emma Crickmore & Virginia Crewe with husbands Pete Crewe (ex Brillig) and David Crickmore (The Durbervilles). The programme of festive songs they perform are drawn from different sources, many familiar, some not so, but all designed to conjure a rustic atmosphere. Their four part seasonal vocals are complemented by a selection of instruments including vintage harmonium, mandolin, guitar, whistle and percussion.
In Wenchall, as well as countless live performance up and down the country, Emma and Virginia put out three albums, did two live sessions for BBC Radio 2 and sang the theme music to a BBC Radio 4 play.
Plus of course The Holbeck Moor Mummers bring their festive play for this festive occasion - it wouldn't be Christmas without them.
A final reminder about the recently published book: Folk Song in England, a major new work by Steve Roud who was co-editor of The New Penguin Book of English Folk Songs. If you have a folkie friend it may be just the festive present you've been looking for. Information about the book, and some discussion notes are available on club nights, displayed with all the various flyers. It's certain to be of value to those interested in the history of folk songs.
Just an idea: it has been suggested that the club move Thursday nights forward by half an hour, to start at 8 pm and finish at 10.30. This would have the advantage of avoiding the last bus exodus before the guest has finished, also help those who have to go to work the next morning. Nothing has been decided of course, but if you have any views one way or the other perhaps you could make them known to us (via me by email).
The committee for the following year comprises: Sue Gaffney; John Waller; Neil Etherington; Liz Narey; Martin Richards; Rahel Guzelian; Tony Charnock. Welcome to Martin, thank you for joining us.
Topic Constitution: the Topic constitution as amended at the AGM will be up on the website in due course for all to see.

Chester Carruthers is eager to hear any news of his ex-girlfriend, Nola. In return for a small favor, private detective Steve Intermezzo agrees to shadow the young woman and report back to the lovelorn youth. Given a choice between love and luxury, Nola had ditched the youth for Sidney Bingham, scion of an old Boston family.
When Steve sees Nola Bingham, he falls instantly victim to her many charms. When she asks him to do a small favor, with big consequences, how can Stevie refuse?
Russell H. Greenan was born in Manhattan in 1925 and reared in The Bronx. He attended New York public schools, graduating from Morris High in 1942. A year later, aged 17, he enlisted in the US Navy. After the war, the GI Bill enabled him to study world literature at Long Island University. In 1966 he left the US to spend a year in Nice with his wife and three children where he wrote his first novel IT HAPPENED IN BOSTON?. This novel has become a modern classic, translated into 5 languages and is included in Random House's Modern Library. Mr. Greenan's subsequent novels have been published in the US and France, and one of them, THE SECRET LIFE OF ALGERNON PENDLETON was made into a film in 1997.

Masterworks of Johann Sebastian Bach Joel Andrews, Harpist “Masterful harpistry--a crowning achievement” Dear Friends and music lovers, we are thrilled to announce the long- awaited arrival of Joel Andrews' exquisite new CD, “Seraphic Aurora”. This is truly one of Bach’s masterpieces. Mr. Andrews brings exquisite nuances and mastery to new heights, as Bach comes alive with his expression and brilliant interpretive subtlety. Included are the “Prelude No. 1 in C Major” -- “Prelude No. 8 in Eb minor” -- “Partita No. 2 in D Minor” (includes the celebrated “Chaconne”) -- along with his sublime improvisations in the style of Bach, “Seraphs of Light” and “Aurora Borealis“. It is a divine expression of his finest musicality and gifts.
Joel Andrews is a harpist, healer, composer, and author, he has captivated international audiences with his exquisite transcendental music for over 40 years. His music evokes a purity and radiance of the celestial realms that raises one’s energy and vibrations to the realms of supernal light, bringing harmony, healing, balance and inner peace.
Few harpists come close to Mr. Andrews' superb technical mastery of the harp on which he has discovered 30 new sounds. His concerts transcend ordinary musical performances, uplifting the body into documented states of greater balance and harmony. Researchers have found configurations similar to DNA patterns in Andrews' music and in laboratory tests it was found to change the structure of water.
Mr. Andrews' innovations in the field of sound healing have helped thousands of people unlock their highest potential by re-aligning them physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Golden Harp offers a wide spectrum of services supporting the work of physicians, body workers, healers and many alternative practitioners, as well as providing tools for individuals to achieve greater harmony in their lives. This is because the music goes beyond words, representing one of the most powerful, universal forms of non-verbal communication.
"A most remarkable virtuoso and musician" -- The San Francisco Chronicle.
"...skill, musicianship, and sensitivity." -- The New York Times.

Anyone know what the medical, dental, and vision package Microsoft has costs for folks in California? What is the employee premium (if any)?
It's zero. Medical insurance costs you nothing at Microsoft.
Costs? Doesn't cost you anything. You asking how much it costs msft?
Not sure about how it works in CA, but in WA there’s no employer payment towards the healthcare premium.
For dental it depends if you want the premium option which is roughly $10/month I think.

Has a major league player ever before been injured after he was ejected from a game? Come on Elias Sports Bureau, make yourselves useful for once! Milton Bradley may be headed to the DL because of an umpire, he says. It was manager Bud Black who grabbed Bradley and spun him to the ground, preventing him from going after umpire Mike Winters after Winters had ejected him. Bradley sustained a knee injury due to the takedown. It all stemmed from Winters claiming that Bradley had thrown a bat at him after he had struck out. Hilarity, and then ejection, ensued. The whole thing is, as they say, a big bowl of wrong.
"It's terrible. And now, because of him, my knee's hurt," said Bradley, whose Padres lost to the Rockies 7-3. "If this costs me my season because of that, he needs to be reprimanded. I'm taking some action. I'm not going to stand pat and accept this because I didn't do nothing wrong." The Padres were swept by the Rockies and are now only a half game ahead of the Phillies in the NL wild-card scramble. San Diego is 2 1/2 games behind the Diamondbacks in the NL West. Garrett Atkins hit an inside-the-park home run and Brad Hawpe homered for the second time in three games for the Rockies, who are 1 1/2 games back in the wild-card race.
• We Want Joba! Even though Joe Torre didn't want to use him, the Yankees' manager gave in to the entreaties of the mob and used Joba Chamberlain in relief in the eighth. Toronto had two men on and was two runs back when Chamberlain came in at the behest of the crowd and threw five pitches to strike out Adam Lind, then followed with a perfect ninth. New York won 7-5. And it was Joba's birthday! Did you get him anything? New York is 1 1/2 games back of Boston in the East.
• Bust In The Dust. Chad Billingsley (12-5) got the win as the Dodgers beat the Diamondbacks 7-1, leaving Arizona 2 1/2 games ahead of the Padres in the NL West with six games remaining; three at Pittsburgh and three in Colorado. Oh, the suspense!
• Cubs Are Smelling Division Title! Derek Lee homered and Carlos Zambrano got his career-best 17th win as the Cubs beat the Pirates 8-0. Coupled with Milwaukee's 7-4 loss to Atlanta, Chicago is looking pretty, pretty, pretty, pre-tay good at 3 1/2 games ahead of the second-place Brewers in the NL Central.

How'd I sleep this late???
How in the hell. I went to bed nearly 12 hours ago. Slept 'till about 1 hour ago.
But I feel fantastically better.
Nature Boy (the old Nat King Cole standard). Nobody can screw up this song, and if the vocalist is actually talented it can even be made MORE perfect.
Oh, probably David Bowie... guy wrote the soundtrack of my damn life, it'd be nice to thank him at least.

From your Student Homepage inside of EMSTesting, you will click on the name of your class and then select the "Adaptive Testing" button.
This will bring you to a page which will display any previously taken adaptive tests. If this is your first time taking a test you will not see any listed here. If you have previously taken adaptive tests for this class, you can see your results for any of these tests by clicking 'view results'.
If you would like more information about how to read your results page click here.
To take a new test you will click on the "New Adaptive Test" button in the top right.
If your instructor has not turned on the ability to take adaptive tests in your class yet, you will receive a warning page notifying you of this.
But as long as your instructor has enabled at least 1 module to test on, clicking on the "New Adaptive Test" button will bring you to a page where you can set up the options for your test.
Select a Test Type: Here you can select whether you want the "Standard Test" or a "Timed Test". A "Standard Test" has no time limit, so you can start and stop your test and come back to it later. The "Timed Test" option allows you 30 minutes per module you are testing on.
Select a Curriculum: This is where you can select from Educational Standards, Module, Topic, Objective, or National Registry 2015, depending on which curriculums your instructor has enabled modules for you to take adaptive tests on. If no module is enabled in a curriculum by your instructor, then that curriculum will not display here.
Select a Question Bank: By default, this is set to our Platinum Education Validated Test Bank, but if your instructors have created questions and marked them “CAT Enabled”, you may also have access to the “School Test Bank”. The number of questions available in our Platinum Education Validated Test Bank also changes based on the Curriculum you choose, as well as your Provider Level. The number displayed is the potential question pool for that curriculum, not the number of questions you would be expected to answer on a single test.
Select a Module: Here you can choose to test on a specific Module your instructor has enabled for the class, or take a Comprehensive adaptive test covering all of the modules that have been enabled in that curriculum. Choosing a specific Module to test on will present you with approximately 30 questions associated with that Module. Taking a Comprehensive test will present you with approximately 30 questions for each module enabled (grouping like material together).
Once you have made your selections you can click the "Start Test" button to begin your test.

The newest installment of the IATA Dangerous Good Regulations (DGR) came into effect January 1st, 2017. Are you fully aware of the requirements for temperature controlled shipments containing data loggers?
Shipping temperature controlled pharmaceuticals is a complex business, with many variables and multiple supply chain partners involved. When shipments are sent with data loggers, they are subject to specific IATA and Dangerous Good Regulations to increase security of air cargo shipments. These regulations have become stricter year on year and reached a new level in 2017.
The video above explains the differences between shipments of data loggers with traditional lithium batteries requiring special labeling; and shipments containing data logger types that are exempt from additional IATA labeling.
Bottom line: If you use data loggers without button cell batteries it's more work and heavier costs. As soon as you go over 3 boxes using a data logger in a single consignment or you use multiple data loggers in a single box, your shipment must adhere to new 2017 labeling and documentation requirements.
Data loggers containing button cell batteries are exempt from additional IATA labeling, so no extra forms and no extra handling costs – no matter how many boxes or pallets you ship. Watch video above for full details.
The choice of data loggers that you use in your temperature controlled distribution, could impact your entire logistics planning and handling procedures. With the right data logger, you not only save costs along the process, but also eliminate the hassle of additional paperwork and the risk of being non-compliant in your cold chain. Learn more about how a closed loop data monitoring system can simplify your cold chain logistics and ensure compliance.

Singer Madhushree on Friday supported the #MeToo campaign by saying that the movement has opened up a way for women to share their stories about harassment at the workplace.Madhushree's comments came while she was visiting the Parisar Asha NGO here along with producer Aparna Hoshing and music composer Vijay Verma to promote their forthcoming film "Dassehra".Reacting to the #MeToo movement that has gathered momentum in India, Madhushree said: "I fully support the movement and we all should support it. There are so many women who were not able to share their harassment stories in front of the world... movement like this has opened up a way for them to share their stories."It's a positive step for our future but at the same time, I feel that we should hear both sides of the stories. It should be properly investigated so that, there will be less chances of injustice."Taking about the music of "Dassehra", Madhushree said: "Vijay Verma has composed really good music for the film. I have sung a duet with Rekha Bhardwaj. After so many years, audience will be able to listen to proper ladies duet.
"It's an item song. People were asking me that after singing Bhajan in 'Baahubali 2', why did you attempt an item song? But, I feel by God's grace, I am versatile singer and can sing both (type) of songs."The #MeToo movement has gained momentum in India after Tanushree Dutta accused veteran actor Nana Patekar of harassment. Following her revelation, accusations are being levelled against powerful personalities in politics, media and the entertainment industry.Bollywood casting director Mukesh Chhabra, who was set to make his directorial debut with "Kizie Aur Manny", has been suspended from the film following accusations of sexual harassment. The film's studio, Star India, shared a statement saying that "it takes allegations of sexual harassment of women at workplace very seriously."

While many use the terms â€œlobbyingâ€ and â€œadvocatingâ€ interchangeably, there is a difference.
