Public transaction services (such as e-forms), although perceived the future of e-government have not yet realised their full potential. E-forms have a significant role in e-government, as they are the basis for realising most of the twenty public services that all European Union member states have to provide to their citizens and businesses. The aim of this paper is to present a knowledge-based platform to assist public sector employees to generate online transaction services by simplifying their development, maintenance and integration with already installed IT systems.

The Windy City, Chicago, Illinois, is no stranger to snow, but an upcoming weather event may be the most brutal storm of the season for the American midwest, and may well end up being one of the most dangerous blizzards in Chicago history. Thanks to an unusual combination of freezing weather from Canada and hot, moist air from Texas, an epic blizzard is forming over most of the midwest. Chicago and other major cities stretching from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, to Caribou, Maine, are facing severe winter storms.
This storm will dwarf New York’s Christmas blizzard. The Texas panhandle will be in the single digits. Up to 100 million people will be affected by the snow, ice, and terrible weather. Twenty US states fall under winter weather advisories, from New Mexico to New Jersey and every state in between. In some areas, temperatures will be 50 degrees below normal! Yeesh; be careful out there, America, and stay OFF the roads.

Sustainability, as a principle for development, has been promoted in the global agenda as a result of rising planetary challenges such as climate change, population growth, resources depletion and the most recent financial crisis. It illustrates how the challenges that globalisation poses to governments, the business sector and society at large have moved to the forefront.
“Applied research that draws on a relevant theoretical perspectives and empirical findings is what characterises evidence-based decision-making: crucial factor for sustainable development. The Centre for Sustainable Business at SSE Riga, in close collaboration with partners, aims to raise awareness, explore, advise and implement activities targeted to the sustainable development of the Baltic region and beyond. We focus on today but act for the long term, which means linking sustainable development with sustainable activities that bring no harm to the environment we all live in,” states Director of the Centre Arnis Sauka.
To raise the awareness about the importance of sustainability, the Centre for Sustainable Business, in cooperation with its partners, provides research studies, publications, teaching, training, and contributes actively to public debates. The Centre was founded in 2012 and its activities covers Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.
The Centre is in charge of the course Business Ethics and Sustainability at the undergraduate level at SSE Riga.
The course is also offered in other institutions such as Sciences Po Lille (France). Also, the Centre is engaged in a process for developing courses within SSE Riga as well as content and pedagogical resources with partner universities. The objective is to train future generations of economic, social and political leaders to sustainable and ethical business.
The Centre carries on research on various fronts.
First of all, to understand the business environment in terms of sustainable (as well as unsustainable) business practices, there is a need to undertake research that is applied to the Baltic context. The Centre also undertakes research in relation to the economics, politics and ethics of climate change. Since one of the most serious and pressing challenge to socioeconomic development stems from man-gauged climate change and resources depletion, one of the missions of the Centre is to investigate the economic, political and ethical dimensions of this looming threat. The research activities include articles, public lectures, collaborative projects with other European institutions, organization of workshops and conferences on the topic related to sustainability.
Examples of research areas include the waste of human, energy, and environmental resources, unjust and openly illicit business practices (e.g. corruption and shadow economy activities), governance, tax related behaviour, sponsorship and corporate citizenship, and corporate social responsibility (taking a stance and acting upon it).
The research has resulted in empirical findings, regularities and trends that form the basis for the Centre’s various activities, including involvement in the policy debate.
An integral part of the Centre’s activities is to raise awareness of sustainable business.
This includes an active communication both with policy makers, industry and wider audience involving events such as conferences, open lectures and seminars, workshops, guest lectures, roundtables, and media activities.
The Centre for Sustainable Business at SSE Riga is a member in the Sustainability Centres Community which unites more than 150 sustainability centres from around the world.

Red Velvet's Irene shared about the cute choreography switch with Black Pink's Jennie.
On a recent episode of 'Show! Music Core,' Jennie danced a part of Red Velvet's "Really Bad Boy" during her "SOLO" performance, and Irene danced a part of "SOLO" during Red Velvet's "Really Bad Boy" stage.
During the December 13 broadcast of SBS Love FM's 'Kim Chang Yeol's Old School,' Irene shared the story behind the swap and said, "Jennie suddenly asked me to teach her my choreography so I did and I asked why. She said the beginning of 'SOLO' is free dancing and she plans to use it there. So I told her I will also add her part into 'RBB's free dancing part so that's how it happened."
So good to hear it from the sources themselves.

Testicular cancer is one of the most treatable cancers, especially if caught early. If caught at an early stage, before it has spread, the survival rate is almost 100% but if caught at a late stage the rate drops to less than 75%.
Approximately 1 in 250 men will be diagnosed with testicular cancer. Thanks to early detection and advanced treatments, only approximately 1 in 5000 men will die from testicular cancer.
Are You a Man? THEN SELF EXAM!!!
Monthly self-testicular exams are important to notice changes in one’s testicles. Most testicular cancers are found by men themselves or their partner, very few are found by a physician. Self-testicular exams allow you to become familiar with your testicles thus making it easier to notice any changes. If you do notice any changes then see a doctor immediately.
1. If possible, stand in front of a mirror. Check for any swelling on the scrotal skin.
2. Examine each testicle with both hands. Place the index and middle fingers under the testicle with the thumbs placed on top. Firm but gently roll the testicle between the thumbs and fingers to feel for any irregularities on the surface or texture of the testicle.
3. Find the epididymis, a soft rope-like structure on the back of the testicle. If you are familiar with this structure, you won't mistake it for a suspicious lump.
Now that you have learned how to do a self-exam just don’t throw that knowledge away.
Do your self-exam monthly; it can save your life.

An April 2008 report by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) reveals that a quarter of all drivers in certain states admitted to driving under the influence last year. The report also found 15.1 percent of the nation’s drivers age 18 and older drove under the influence at least one time in 2007.
Nationwide, an estimated 30.5 million people age 12 or older drove under the influence of alcohol at least once last year according to SAMHSA.
Wisconsin ranked first in the nation at 26.4%, followed by North Dakota (24.9%) and Minnesota (23.5%). Utah ranked the lowest at 9.5% and it was the lone state where fewer than 10 percent of adult drivers said they had driven under the influence. Many Utah residents are Mormon, which forbids the use of alcohol.
Virginia ranked 36th with 13.6% while neighboring states were even lower: North Carolina ranked 48th (10.4%) and West Virginia, 49th (10.1%). But the District of Columbia ranked 10th at 19.1%.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported 16,700 deaths in 2004 were caused by accidents involving motorists who had consumed alcohol. The NHTSA said driving under the influence of alcohol and illicit drugs is one of the leading sources of preventable-death-by-injury in the nation.
Over the last decade however, impaired drivers involved in alcohol-related crashes has remained the same -- from 12,348 in 1996 to 12,491 in 2006. These statistics from the U.S. Department of Transportation involves drivers with a blood-alcohol concentration (BAC) level of 0.08 percent or higher.

A first evaluation of a wine it is possible analyzing the COLOR.
Do you know how many types of color exist among the various wines?
A first selection identifies the three big categories that all people know: white, rosé and red.
These categories have various shades of color that are determinated from chemical/physical characterics of wine.
Grayish yellow: very young wines, vinificated in vat; they have a relationship between sourness and smoothness in favor of the first element.
Pale yellow: from very young to young wines, vinificated and ripened in vat; they have a balanced relationship between sourness and smoothness.
Gold yellow: ripe wines or with a great structure, ripened in wood; they have a relationship between sourness and smoothness in favor of the last element.
Amber: old wines, passitos or oxidized wines; they have a decisively relationship between sourness and smoothness in favor of the last element.
Onion skin: wines obtained by short maceration of red grapes (2 to 3 hours), or by the white grapes maceration on the skins.
Salmon: wines obtained by long maceration of red grapes (10 to 24 hours).
Raspberry: wines obtained by medium maceration of red grapes (6 to 10 hours).
Purple: very young red wines, they have a relationship between sourness, tannin and smoothness in favor of first two elements.
Ruby: young red wines of medium structure, they have a balanced relationship between sourness, tannin and smoothness.
Garnet: wines with great structure, they have a slightly relationship between sourness, tannin and smoothness in favor of the last element.
Copper: wines with a long agein, they have a relationship between sourness, tannin and smoothness in favor of the last element.
I am sure that next time you’ll have to choose among wines of same color (white, rosé or red) it will be easier for you to identify different shades.

TH UK does not condone the sending of unsolicited bulk email or junk email (spam) as a business practice. If a TH UK customer is found in violation of our License Agreement, Acceptable Use Policies and/or Anti-Spam Policy, they should be reported to [email protected] immediately.
Defined: Internet spam is one or more unsolicited messages, sent or posted as part of a larger collection of messages, all having substantially identical content.
Unsolicited bulk email that has not been VERIFIED by the receiver. Unless it was the obvious and clear intent of the receiver to participate, as a receiver, in bulk messaging (of a particular type, category or class) initiated by a given sender, then any messages sent from that sender to that receiver are, by definition, unsolicited and NOT verified. Customers of TH UK are urged to verify their data.
An email sent to a recipient who would NOT have a reasonable expectation of receiving email from the sender [Note: this applies to bulk messages and not users of the site sending single, personal messages.
Any email advertising illicit or illegal activities, or infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights of others, including copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, and patents held by individuals, corporations, or other entities.
Third party lists (TPLs) are defined as lists of email addresses transferred to the sender from a third party. Use of TPLs within our system is strictly controlled to ensure that messages that constitute spam (as defined above) are not sent. It is the opinion of TH UK that an email address is the property of the addressee and that they have the right to deny use of their property to any party. Thus only re-verified TPLs can be used, where the original user of the list does the re-verification.
Any violation of TH UK's TPL policy will be subject to disciplinary action, and possibly termination of an account.
Often times, companies buy lists labelled as "opt-in". TH UK policy is that a customer must directly verify every address in an "opt-in" list before distributing an email to that list of potential recipients. In other words, the company/customer MUST contact individuals before sending communication and have the individual confirm and accept use of their email address by the sender. This ensures the email recipient has directly approved - hence "verified" email correspondence with the company.
In addition, TH UK expects customers to maintain records of verification of each individual contact. If you do not believe that you subscribed with this customer or to this list, please contact TH UK and we will request a record of confirmation to verify legitimacy of records.
To unsubscribe from an UNSOLICITED email sent by a company using the TH UK MessageMaker platform TH UK's site and services provide email recipients the opportunity to manage their subscription and remove themselves from the customers' contact list, thus eliminating future communications. To remove your name from a list, select the "Unsubscribe" option that is included on the bottom of every MessageMaker email. TH UK will mark your contact information as "unsubscribed" and notify the company (our customer) from whom you received the email.
Individuals receiving an email from a TH UK customer may also choose to contact that company directly to note your removal.
Forward the entire message to [email protected]. Please be sure to include the entire header portion of the original message.
You can also submit reports anonymously by pasting the entire message (including headers) into our Anonymous Spam Reporting Form here. Again, be sure to remove any identifying content (such as your email address).
All spam reports will be assigned an incident number and a TH UK representative will evaluate them to determine the client involved and to work to resolve the issue.
What does TH UK do if a customer is Spamming?
Terminate any service agreement in place.
Remove or block violating customers' access to MessageMaker upon receipt of a proper notice of Spam.
Hold the right to take legal action against a customer depending on the level of severity of the situation.

There was a post on Facebook today from an old high school friend. Actually, the post was from a few days ago and comments were made on it today. One of the comments was from another high school friend who went on to say that he was wrapped for Christmas and had to lie under Rob’s Christmas tree as a gift to a girl that Rob knew. Pretty weird stuff.
Sometimes it would be nice to know what people really thought of me back then. It would be nice to know what people think of me now. Well, it would be nice to know if everyone thought I was a wonderful human being whose contributions to those around him and the world in general made life worth living. If no one liked me and the most common comment was “Ken who?” I would just as soon not know.
I suspect that I fall somewhere in the middle between those two things. I’d like to make a bigger contribution, but we can only do what is meant to be done. It’s possible that I will be a footnote in one of the grandkids lives. When they are being interviewed on some late night talk show after doing something totally inappropriate they just might cite me as the shallow part of the gene pool. At least it is recognition.
You know, at the end of the day the only person whose opinion really matters is mine. I like the person I am for the most part and I try to live my life without doing any harm and hopefully making people laugh a little. I would have given me to a teenage girl all of those years ago; I don’t know what Rob’s problem was.

Vizek, Maruška. "Ekonometrijska analiza kanala monetarnog prijenosa u Hrvatskoj." Privredna kretanja i ekonomska politika, vol. 16, no. 109, 2006, pp. 28-61. https://hrcak.srce.hr/18348. Accessed 18 Apr. 2019.
The aim of this paper is to explore the characteristics and functioning of monetary transmission in Croatia. Time series analysis (unit root test, VAR, Johansen cointegration procedure, Granger causality tests and error correction model) is used to estimate the influence of exchange rate, interest rate and narrow money on real economic activity. The results of econometric analysis suggest that monetary policy in Croatia had a significant influence on real activity through a direct monetary transmission and exchange rate channel. Furthermore, the results of statistical tests suggest that interest rate channel is not active. Short-term interest rate inelasticity of the Croatian economy combined with a strong exchange rate channel could present a great difficulty once Croatia joins the EMU, since the interest rate channel is the most important channel of monetary transmission in the EU, while the exchange rate channel will be eliminated upon adopting the Euro. This could provoke non- esponsiveness of the Croatian economy to the EU monetary policy or it could make the monetary transmission asymmetric. However, high euroization of the Croatian economy could facilitate the interest rate transmission once the Euro is adopted.

Silence. That word brings so many things to mind. So many memories. So many fears. So many times when all I can do is sit in the deafening silence and wonder…are you there, God? If I listen loud enough can I hear your still, small voice…your whisper? Are you working even when I can’t see the evidence?
You tell us not to lose heart. That even though this outward body is wasting away, you are renewing our inner person day by day. That this present trouble, this light momentary affliction is preparing for us and producing in us an eternal glory that outweighs any affliction we will endure. You tell us not to look at the things that are before us, the things that are seen, but to the unseen, the silence in the midst of the chaos. For these are the things that will not perish. These are the things that will stand forever. These things are eternal.
You tell us that since we have been made sons and daughters, you have placed your peace deep within our soul. In the quiet recesses of our heart. In the silence that we can hardly bear. Because of what you’ve done, we can rejoice in the hope and freedom you’ve given. We can stand, confidently and joyfully, and look forward to sharing in your glory.
You tell us that we can rejoice in these momentary afflictions, these present troubles. That these trials, these sufferings, are producing an endurance that can only birth character: who you are shaping us to be. Which ultimately strengthens our hope, the hope of our salvation. And that hope does NOT disappoint. It does not disappoint because you have poured your love in our hearts through your Spirit. That unending, ever flowing love.
So in this moment, this silence, I take joy in the momentary affliction, the hardship, the calamity of it all. For when I am weak, then I am strong. And not a strength of my own accord because my own strength does not exist. On my own I am but a shell of a body. But a godly, supernatural strength that allows me to cling to the answers unknown. To the future that only you know. To your still, small voice. Your whisper. Your silence.
(Based on 2 Corinthians 4, Romans 5, and 2 Corinthians 12).

I have a GE Washer Model # WHRE5550K2WW. Over time, the spin cycle has become very noisy, sounding like a freight train (kind of a roar). I have checked for nails/pins and other objects stuck in the inner basket. I can move the inner basket by hand and can hear a low-level grinding, which increases the faster I spin it.
Do I have a bad tub bearing? Anything else I can do to diagnose it?
Most likely the mode shifter part # Wh38x10017 Basically a transmission. Fairly easy to change. You'll probably see some discoloration from where the water has leaked down into and past the bearing. Mode shifter does come with a new tub seal. Instructions can be found on YouTube.
I ordered the mode shifter, along with tub bearing and washer. Taking the washer apart, I could see the seal had failed, causing the bearing on the mode shifter shaft to fail. Too bad they don't sell just the bearing itself! Replaced the tub bearing and washer as well since I already had the machine apart.
It now purrs like a kitten.

A payday loan is a short-term, unsecured loan for a small sum of money, typically only offered to people in stable employment, and intended for one-off, unexpected costs. Life doesn’t always go the way we plan, and bills sometimes need to be paid before payday. A short-term cash advance can make the difference between paying that bill in full and bouncing a cheque. The average payday loan in Canada is around $280, borrowed for an average period of ten days. Typically, a payday loan is paid back with interest on the borrower’s next payday, hence the name. With My Canada Payday, loans are normally due on your next payday, but customers can borrow for up to 60 days by calling or e-mailing to make arrangements to pay on their next-but-one payday once their loan application is complete. Loans of up to $1500 are available.
Ordinary people looking for financial flexibility and convenience. A 2007 report commissioned by the Canadian Consumer Finance Association found that the typical payday loan borrower is 40 years old, employed full-time, and earning an average income. Around two million Canadians will take out a payday loan every year, so you probably know someone who has used payday loan services.
As with any kind of borrowing, you should use payday loans responsibly. Payday loans should be used to cover occasional or unexpected costs, not to prolong unsustainable spending. Borrowing is not a substitute for a good budget. The Canadian Payday Loan Association offers free financial education materials. When you apply for your payday loan, make sure to read the terms and conditions. Make sure also that you will have enough money in your nominated bank account to repay the loan, plus interest, on the due date. As with any loan, failure to pay it off on the due date will incur further costs. If you cannot pay in full on the due date, contact us so that we can work out an alternative repayment schedule. My Canada Payday helps customers to manage their debt by not allowing them to take out a second loan until the original loan has been paid in full. If you have ongoing financial problems, the CPLA also provides a list of national and provincial credit counselling services. Depending on your circumstances there may be other options more appropriate than a payday loan, such as an overdraft or debt consolidation.
What does Canadian law say about payday loans?
My Canada Payday has storefronts in Surrey, British Columbia and Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Alternatively, customers can apply online using a simple form. By applying online, customers can have money in their account within 15 minutes without even leaving their homes.

Matt Wellens / Forum News Service Apr 14th 2019 - 7pm.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — For seven months, through 41 games, week in and week out, Minnesota Duluth coach Scott Sandelin has been harping on his team about putting together a complete 60-minute performance.
Well, was that what you were looking for Saturday, Mr. Sandelin?
“You’re damn right it was,” Sandelin said with a giant smile outside the locker room of the Buffalo Sabres following a 3-0 dismantling of Massachusetts in the NCAA championship game at KeyBank Center.
The Bulldogs outshot the Minutemen 31-18, out-attempted them 69-44 and Grade-A scoring chances were 9-2 in favor of UMD, with UMass failing to get any legitimate scoring chances in the third period.
UMass’ 18 shots on goal tied for the second-fewest by a team in a national championship game.
UMD was especially dominant on the penalty kill, holding UMass 0-for-4 in the championship two days after the Minutemen torched Denver on the power play, finishing 3-for-5 — scoring twice 18 seconds apart on a major penalty in the first — en route to a 4-3 overtime victory.
Even after getting shut out by UMD, UMass’ power play finishes 2018-19 as the best in the nation at 28.5 percent. It looked nothing like that Saturday, however, as the Minutemen were left chasing the puck 200 feet up and down the ice, getting just three power-play shots on UMD junior goaltender Hunter Shepard.
Bulldogs penalty killers said Saturday they watched minimal film on the UMass power play in the leadup to the national championship. It was just a matter of willpower, they said.
Senior captain and wing Parker Mackay, voted the Frozen Four’s most outstanding player, finishes his final collegiate season as the Bulldogs’ leading goal scorer at 16 and point producer at 33.
Oh, and he’s a two-time NCAA champion.
Like his predecessor, current Boston Bruins forward Karson Kuhlman, Mackay saved his best for last, closing his Bulldog career with a five-game point streak. Mackay finished the NCHC and NCAA championship runs with four goals and five assists. All four goals came in the NCAA tournament and two were game-winners.
“When Coach Sandelin recruits guys that he wants to set an example for our program, he recruits guys like Parker Mackay. Without him, I don’t think we would be where we are this year,” Shepard said.
Saturday was Mackay’s 14th NCAA tournament game (12-2), which is the most of any player since four members of Boston College’s class of 2008. Mackay, senior wing Billy Exell, junior wing Riley Tufte and junior defenseman Nick Wolff are the first Bulldogs to take shifts in three separate Frozen Fours.
While Shepard is happy to dump all the credit on Mackay for UMD winning back-to-back titles, Mackay is even more passionate about passing the buck to Shepard.
Shepard, who was once again snubbed for the Mike Richter Award as national goaltender of the year, finished the 2018-19 season with a 1.76 goals-against average, .923 save percentage, seven shutouts (one short of his own single-season record) and 29 wins (a school record) in 42 starts.
For his career, Shepard sports a 1.84 GAA, .924 save percentage with 54 wins and a school-record 15 shutouts. He’s started a school-record 81 straight games.
The NCAA tournament, however, is where Shepard really shines. The Cohasset native is a perfect 8-0 with a .954 save percentage and 0.97 GAA. Only two of the eight NCAA tournament goals Shepard has allowed have come at even strength. The other six were all power-play goals.
Saturday was his first shutout in the NCAA tournament. There have been just six shutouts ever in the national championship game, with the last coming in 2013 by Yale.
Shepard joined Mackay on the all-tournament team, along with sophomore defenseman Mikey Anderson, sophomore center Justin Richards, Exell and UMass freshman defenseman Marc Del Gaizo.
Saturday’s title game was UMD’s first to not be decided by a single goal. The Bulldogs lost 5-4 in four overtimes to Bowling Green in 1984; won 3-2 in overtime over Michigan in 2011; lost 3-2 in 2017 to Denver; and won last year 2-1 over Notre Dame.
The three goals UMD allowed during this year’s NCAA tournament are the second-fewest goals allowed by a national champion since 2003 when the field expanded to 16 teams. Boston College allowed just two during its 2012 title run.
The Bulldogs’ second straight title is the fourth consecutive for the NCHC, leaving it one NCAA title short of the WCHA’s run of five between 2002-06.
Saturday was the Bulldogs’ 29th win of the season, tying for the program’s second-highest single-season total. The 1983-84 Bulldogs also won 29 games, while the 1984-85 team won 36.

· Groups resist criticism—especially from newcomers.
Picture this: you’ve just started a new job and you’re sat nervously in your first meeting. You look around, still trying to match names to faces. Early on a problem is discussed you know all about from a previous job. Putting aside nerves, you hop right in and start to explain just how it was dealt with at that previous company.
When you finish speaking everyone just looks at you. For a few seconds the only sound is the air-conditioning and people fidgeting with their pens. Then a red-haired woman—clearly a company veteran—recovers and makes one or two non-committal remarks. The meeting moves straight on to other business leaving you wondering what you did wrong.
No one looks at you.
Although this scenario might come straight from a sitcom like The Office, it’s not that fanciful. Recent psychological research has established that just this unreasoning hostility to newcomers clearly exists in groups, even when their suggestions are sound. Psychologist Matthew J. Hornsey and colleagues have confirmed the effect as well as examining how newcomers can worm their way into a group’s affections and begin to generate influence (Hornsey et al., 2007).
Firstly, though, they asked whether groups are really this hostile when newcomers, as opposed to old-timers, make critical remarks. Hornsey and colleagues asked 187 health professionals at a hospital to make judgements in circumstances similar to those described above. One group of participants were lead to believe their hospital was being criticised by a newcomer who had worked there 3 weeks, while another group thought it was an established old-timer of 18 years. In each case the criticisms presented to participants were identical, the only difference was their apparent source.
were more negative about their criticisms.
This certainly supports our intuitive understanding that it can be difficult for newcomers to criticise their new group.
Next Hornsey and colleagues wanted to see whether there was any way of reducing these negative reactions to newcomers’ criticisms. To do this they recruited 217 members of an online gaming community who were all interested in a particular game. They were then shown an extract purportedly taken from a chat site that criticised their game and asked to comment on whether they agreed with the critic and whether the criticisms were justified.
To test whether the anti-newcomer bias could be lessened, the participants were split into four groups and the identity of the critic was presented in four different ways.
A newcomer who distances himself from another group to which he used to belong.
A newcomer who embraces another group to which he used to belong.
An old-timer who distances himself from another group to which he used to belong.
An old-timer who embraces another group to which he used to belong.
So sometimes the critic was shunning their membership of an old group and sometimes they were embracing it.
Once again, confirming the previous findings, online community members were none too impressed when criticism of ‘their’ game came from a newcomer. Again, the newcomer aroused more negativity than old-timers despite making exactly the same criticisms. But the researchers did find that this negativity could be reduced if the newcomer shunned a group of which they used to be a member, then their criticisms were more likely to be viewed as legitimate. Hornsey and colleagues’ results also showed that old-timers benefited from this effect as well.
This finding makes sense when you think about how a newcomer’s group identity is perceived by other members of the group. Whether consciously or not, people want others to value their group as much as they do. When newcomers distance themselves from an old group, it increases their perceived allegiance to the current group. If the criticism comes from a member of the group perceived as committed, this helps to cushion the critical blow.
What the psychological research tells us, then, is that influencing groups to change as a newcomer is not easy. Sources of criticism or agents of change commonly face increased negativity and outright rejection. However beautifully the change is packaged, people will quickly perceive the implicit criticism of the status quo.
The temptation when joining a new group is to try and make a big splash, to impress others with our critical perceptions and new ideas. On the contrary, what the present research suggests is that toeing the line in the first instance is often the best long-term strategy. Groups are hostile to criticism from newcomers and are likely to resist, dismiss or ignore it—unless you can prove your loyalty.
One way of emphasising allegiance to a new group is by creating psychological distance from an old group. But even this might not work all the time since criticising an old group can signal a disloyal nature. Consequently newcomers to a group who want to gain influence and promote change should tread very carefully until they are well-established. Unfortunately sometimes being right just isn’t enough.

Time continues to fly by! How is it already May? Speaking of time flying by, I have officially started my fourth year of dental school! Eeee! It’s a bitter sweet excitement really. Bitter because I have met so many great people in dental school and I am not quite ready to say goodbye, but so so sweet as I have worked so hard to get here. Well… good thing I dont have to deal with these mixed emotions for another year… we’ll just tuck them away for now.
Enough being sentimental and on to a delicious meal!
This is a great crockpot recipe that I have made a couple of times now! I love that all you have to do is throw all the ingredients in the crockpot.
1. Place all of the ingredients in the crockpot.
2. Cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4 hours.
3. Shred chicken and place back in the crockpot for 30 minutes.
4. Serve on hard or soft tacos with shredded cheese, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream.

You’re going to Las Vegas and going to be taking a lot of pictures and videos on your phone for three or more days. What do you do when the memory fills up? What happens if you lose your phone the third day? Don’t risk losing all of those memories!
The best solution is to bring a laptop with you to be able to connect your phone or even digital camera every day and clear some space for the next day and night. You will record videos and they will use more storage space than you think. You’ll also want to be able to share all of this with friends back home and make them jealous of your adventures.
Another benefit to a laptop if you have one to bring is that you can provide music for your group as you have fun hanging out in the hotel room.
The down side to bringing expensive electronics? Make sure you and your friends trust who you let in your room so it doesn’t disappear!
A cloud based storage app like Dropbox may work as well if you don’t have a laptop to bring. Just make sure to find some WiFi so you don’t eat up your limited data allowance on a cell phone plan.
Now that I’ve talked about not being a photographer and then backing up your pictures and videos here you’ll also want to print them out when you get home. I think we’ve all had a laptop crash or phone die and lose a lot of memories. Go to your local store and print out pictures to make a photo album, you’ll be happy you did in about 10 years!
Side note: Sorry about some site downtime over the weekend, the hosting company had some issues.

$4+ per gallon, still on the north end of the facility. There are a few fuels available there with listed ethanol percentages (ie. 35%, & etc.) but the 90-octane E-free fuel is not well labeled. It states 90 octane, but there is no label specifically stating that it is Ethanol Free...had to go pester the front desk to make sure I was at the right pump. Definitely still there!
Still $4.50/gal, modern pump with CC reader. Pure-gas pump is north of store. The other 2 pumps on that end have diesel, and E15/ E30.
Station has a large convenience store. It locates at 238 N Hwy 135 on my GPS. The pump does have a CC reader, although I did not use it. Hours are still 4am to 11pm. Current price E-10 (87) - $1.97, E-0 (90) - $4.49.
This station is on the North End of Trafalgar, IN. The ethanol free fuel is next to the Diesel Pump, not under the canopy.It is 4.499 a gallon and it does take the Visa card. The co-ordinates are different than what is shown here. From my car N 39 25' 10" W 86 9' 31", OK?
Don't get confused. There is a Joe's Junction (Phillips 66) in Bargersville and Trafalgar. Both are on SR135, and in the same relative position to the major town intersection (North of town and on the West side of the Street). The Joe's Junction in Trafalgar is what you want. They have 90 Octane Ethanol Free gas currently selling at $4.50/gal. The on in Bargersville does NOT have Ethanol Free. The address listed above is the correct address. Hope this helps.
http://www.joesjunction.com/joes-8/ Is this the place? If so, some of the information above may need to change. 214 North State Road 135, Bargersville, IN is the address used by the embedded map, so that might work better for GPS units. They claim to sell Rec 90 fuel. I haven't made it to the station myself yet.
Ethanol-free gasoline available on pumps #13 and 14. Hours of operation are 4 AM to 11 PM.

A new mind altering, body modification, transformative, durational performance artwork by Casey Jenkins (Sh) in collaboration with neuroscientist Dr Marc Seal of Murdoch Children’s Research Institute.
How fixed are our perceptions and our prejudices? For two weeks in a make-shift gallery lab, Jenkins will undertake intense live perceptual training to morph her mind with the goal of perceiving previously imperceptible hues and developing synesthesia.
True Colours | True Colors is the first of a series of investigations into the malleability of the mind’s eye, how our perceptions corrupt in a media-saturated age and what impact this has on our attitudes and beliefs. By creating new, arbitrary language categories and associations and drilling them into her brain, Jenkins aims to warp her perceptions and change the way she views the world. Monitored by MRI scans with the support of neuroscientist, Dr. Marc Seal of the Murdoch Children’s Research Centre, True Colours | True Colors draws on the rich oeuvre of body-modification artwork but explores new territory as the body part being modified is the brain.
True Colours | True Colors is the first exhibition to be held in Dark Horse Experiment’s new West Melbourne Gallery, 33 Dudley st.
Many thanks to the generous support of - Dr. Marc Seal and the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, Dr Greg Wadley of Melbourne University, The City of Melbourne, Creative Victoria and the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.

When it comes to midsummer rose care, there are several different things to keep in mind.
If you had the foresight to plant a rose as part of a container garden, let me remind you that these plants, including the miniatures, are greedy feeders and if you want to see a lot of blooms you will have to feed the plant every week.
Plant food provides the energy to produce those huge blossoms and the extra shoots that produce even more blossoms. I use an organic liquid fish food fertilizer on all my container plants and roses love it as well. You also do not want to let your rose get thirsty.
Remember that if you touch the soil and your finger comes away dry, it is time to water that pot. Continue applying water until water comes out the bottom of the pot to ensure the soil is soaked right to the bottom and no roots are allowed to dry out. Feed and water those containers and you’ll have fragrance this summer but without this essential bit of rose care, your containers will disappoint.
If you have roses in the ground, whether it’s traditional rose gardening or a plant here and there, let me remind you that the above two rose care suggestions are equally valid. Feed those roses with a liquid plant food and watch the plant grow. And remember that blossoms are over 90 percent water so if you reduce the water, you reduce the size and number of blossoms on the plant.
Rose flower pruning is one of those dull rose care chores that are necessary in order to keep the rose producing more blossoms, reduce disease in the garden and just keep things looking good. With hybrid tea roses, once the blossoms start to fade, each bloom should be pruned off.
There is some disagreement about how much of the stem to cut off along with the fading rose and while some rosarians suggest only taking a few inches, there is research that suggests cutting at least twelve inches of stem or cane off along with the rose will produce more blossoms in subsequent bloom flushes.
I have always taken the longer stem cutting in the belief that the longer the stem I cut off, the more new buds will develop to produce even more flowers. What is important is that you do remove spent flowers before they become sites for diseases to establish themselves.
Other kinds of roses should also be deadheaded as the flowers are finished blooming and that includes all climbing roses. Suffice it to say that pruning them immediately after they finish blooming is traditional rose care.
And that brings me to a question I get asked regularly. What happens if I make a mistake with the pruning? The short answer is that this is a plant, it is not brain surgery. What’s the worst thing that could happen? Well, you might kill the plant, but the chances are that the plant will simply grow back and you’ll get another chance to do it correctly.
It is certainly that way with roses. Many of them will simply die over the winter anyway so why worry about a few poor pruning cuts. Do your best and let the plant live with your efforts; you might, however, try taking a book on pruning out of the library next winter.
The last thing that many rose lovers are concerned with right now is the dreaded black spot. This disease starts out as small black spots and these spots enlarge and multiply. The spots go yellowish and the leaves drop off the rose. Planting resistant varieties only delays the inevitable.
Let me suggest that a weekly spray mix consisting of: 3 tsp. baking soda, 2 1/2 tbs. summer-weight horticultural oil, mixed with 1 gallon of water will control black spot enough for the average gardener. Yes, you’ll still see it later in the summer but you’re still going to see it with the expensive, chemical bomb you use as well.
Spray this every week and immediately after rains for complete coverage that will slow blackspot down to a dull and livable roar.
There is also some research suggesting Neem oil can be used as an alternate spray (spray with the homemade spray one week, the neem the next).
If your growing tips on your roses are twisted and curled, it is likely you have powdery mildew. You might never see the white powder that is evident on other plants infected with this problem but those twisted leaves are a dead giveaway on roses. Uncurl the leaves to make sure the curling is not an insect making a nest in there and if no insect is present, powdery mildew is the culprit.
Prune off the infected tips and start a weekly spray of the above recipe. Do not water the leaves if at all possible but apply water to the base of the plant.

Putting MTL content on a Gatineau radio station makes as much sense as Toronto based tv stations deciding what local news content to air in MTL. Furthermore it s a well known fact that radio 91.9 is a Habs radio station and broadcasting on someone else s turf (the Sens ) is a bad bad idea. One has to be naive to think that they will offer a variety of topics and teams follow up if only for financial restraints. The number one trademark to succeed in MTL is the Montreal Canadiens and spending daily time on an opponent is also a bad idea for their main market. But this is RNC s way of doing things. Trying to cut costs any way they can while they are still afloat.
For me, the interesting take away in all of this is how robust and active the Ottawa radio market is, and how dead the Montreal market is by comparison.
The difference? Well, Montreal’s market is sewn up and owned by a very few players. Ottawa seems to have both more diverse ownership, and those that are there (including the biggies) seem more willing to make major changes to try to improve their ratings and bottom line. It’s interesting to see so much activity there.
The difference? Well, Montreal’s market is sewn up and owned by a very few players.
– The CRTC has issued exemptions to common ownership rules for Cogeco to own 98.5 FM and Bell to own TSN 690.
When you have a limited market place, exemptions that allow the ownership of 4 stations (plus TV) is going to be a bad thing. Since Montreal’s market is split into three big segments (french, english, and other including non-commercial, campus, ethinic, and such), each of those groups may only have 10 to a dozen stations, it gets worse. Add to that protection for neighboring market stations and border blasters and you have a VERY small market. Media concentration clearly has a very negative effect.
It will be interesting if the CRTC and the current government decide to move on to breaking up the media monopolies that hurt competition and give the public less choice, especially in Montreal.
there doesn’t look like there’s going to be any live sports programming, at least at first.
Content trumps launguag in this case. Not a sound business plan.
There’s a change afoot for the station. The rock is gone, and they have more of an adult contemporary sound. The facebook page has been deleted. I’m hearing a format change will occur on the 21st.

I got this article in a set of newspaper and magazine clippings. I don't know the date or the name of the publication, but it was probably from 1973 or 1974, because it discusses Allan rejoining the group after an 18-month absence. He looks good as ever in the photo. I'll forgive him the haistyle, because Allan's gorgeous no matter what!
"Friendship has yet to come", ah,that sounds sad .I trust it did in time.Feelings appear to be quite raw in the interview.I sometimes think the Hollies' relationship was like a marriage,sometimes very close,moving in the same direction.Other times not being able to be in the same room together,pulling in oppposite directions.Trial separations and big reunions.But unlike most marriages the "sweet music" they made was shared by the world .
Mean't to thank you,pet for the post.Cheers Vrinda .
He conveniently failed to mention that HE needed them, since his two solo albums bombed badly.
That thought had crossed my mind too.
"The musicicans in the band aren't outstanding but their sound is..."
Well their sound is outstanding but as musicians they are also outstanding... why on earth did he say something stupid like that? Tony Hicks and Bobby Elliott are absolutely outsanding musicians... at least they were in their prime.
I just listened to the new Romany CD and the drumming couldn't be any better - absolutely perfect - powerful when needed and tasteful when needed. I wish I could play that good, tight and precise.
And Tony's and especially Terry's harmonies are in my opinion enough to make them sound like the Hollies vocally.
The truth of the matter is they needed each other.It was a mutually beneficial relationship .When he was talking about no one in the band being outstanding what I think he mean't was that no one person was the Hollies and I think he was including himself here too.Remember when you read something you are not getting the tone of voice being used and you might not be getting the spin the journalist is putting on it.I know Allan has an ego but so have the others and at times I'm sure they could all be equally pig-headed and alittle misguided.The result was Allan returned and that made a lot of people happy. .
The reunion album (Hollies) was great, but that can't be said about the subsequent albums. Each had its moments, but the joyful spirit from 1974 did not last. "Another Night" was mostly a somber affair. "Write On" was only a slight improvement. "Russian Roulette" had at least one classic on it, "Draggin' My Heels" and "Daddy Don't Mind" is good, too, despite that odd trombone break. "A Crazy Steal" and "5317704" were too ballad-heavy. So it is arguable whether it was really a good thing or not that Clarke returned. I think the overall perception was that they couldn't keep up with the new bands making hit records during the latter part of the '70s. Plus Clarke's appearance wasn't youthful, with that lousy perm and the forced suntan. These things DO matter when it comes to popularity. Now if they had stuck with Mikael Rickfors, it would have been a different story altogether. The band was going in the right direction musically with him. It would have been interesting had they continued with Rickfors, to say the least.
Hey, Dennis, was there something else you meant to say in that last post but forgot to type it in? You've got Paula's and your previous post boxed, but no current one.
No, that was a goof-up on my part. I didn't know how to correct it, so there it is. Oops!
I couldn't agree more with your post. Right on target.
Yes, Dennis, I agree with you to a certain point. I like the Rickfors-era albums more than "Russian Roulette" and "A Crazy Steal", as well.
But we may not forget that a band needs hits more than a youthful appearance, and The Hollies did not have a worldwide smash-hit with Rickfors comparable to "The Air That I Breathe". Even "Sandy", "Write On" and "Boulder To Birmingham" get more radio airplay than "The Baby" or "Magic Woman Touch". And it shows that they had success with ballads in the mid-1970s. So, how can anybody say that the direction they were going was wrong ? And "It's In Everyone Of Us" from 1979's "5317704" is one of the most beautiful Hollies songs I know. I'm not sure whether they would have had the same success with Rickfors. The Hollies could not repeat the success they had in the 1960s but they had their chart moments in the 1970s and it would not have been better with Mikael Rickfors.
But don't get me wrong. I love the Rickfors-albums, "The Baby" is one of my favourite Hollies songs and "Out On The Road" is my favourite Hollies album.
I just wanted to make clear that I also think that The Hollies needed Clarke to reach those higher chart positions they have reached with "The Air That I Breathe". And I like their later albums, as well. My favourite post-Rickfors album IS the ballad album "5317704". Could anybody else sing "When I'm Yours" or "It's In Everyone Of Us" as emotional as Allan did ? And let's not forget about the great emotional guitar solo by Tony in "When I'm Yours". Songs like these show how professional The Hollies were when they made music.
Rickfors or Clarke ? Thanks to both of them for giving great songs their voice (and, of course, writing them, in some cases). And, of course, thanks to The Hollies for their whole song and album catalogue.
This is, of course, all speculation on our parts. But one lone hit, "The Air That I Breathe", was really all that came of the reunion with Clarke, quite a disappointment on reflection. As for the chart success of the Rickfors period, "Magic Woman Touch", even though it was foolishly ignored in the UK, did make the Top 10 in Holland and Australia, and the Top 60 in the US. "The Baby", as you rightly state, is one of the best recordings in the Hollies catalogue; it is simply a magnificent track. I still believe "If It Wasn't For The Reason" would have made some headway chartwise (at least here in the US where country-rock was all the rage at the time) had it been released. And the hip and humorous "Mexico Gold" also would have been great as a US single, instead of the "Long Cool Woman"-ish "Curly Billy".
I think the two Rickfors LPs are flawless. But then, so is the '74 LP with Clarke. It was just an excellent time period for the band, regardless of lineup.

15 years ago when I started working in one of India’s most stunning forests, the damp smell of the leaves that dazzled the forest floor overlooking a magnificent saal canopy and the musical sounds of crystal clear water cascading down the white rocks shining like jewels, as the first rays of morning rays kissed the Ramganga, were some of the first soul touching moments of Corbett which continued to draw me back to this magical landscape in various professional capacities.
The blue waters of this spectacular river and the presence of glittering coat of a shy and elusive Corbett tiger trespassing the divine landscape always made me skip a few heartbeats. Years passed by and then emerged a tigress from this river as a goddess and with the attitude of a bold mermaid who loved the rich blues of the Ramganga. She became a showstopper and for the first time Corbett was known because of a tiger called Paro. Having followed the stories of various tiger families across tiger habitats of India I always waited for an opportunity to observe a tiger family that ruled the rivers of Corbett. I anxiously waited for her future generations as I was curious to see a river denizen raising her young in the dramatic yet challenging terrain.
Over the past many years I followed various tiger families in various tiger habitats of India. As Paro walked out with her tiny borns dangling in her mouth last summer, I was geared to document a special story I had been waiting to work on for over a decade. A perfect character and the perfect family in some grand backdrops. The monsoons swept away half of her motherly aspirations and she was left with one male cub – the chosen one.
A little prince did not hesitate to take the first bold steps in a river rubbing shoulders with her mother. His antics made him a heartthrob as he braved the winters, climbed tree stumps and exhaled breaths of gold in the misty golden mornings of the Ramganga. He was always a little slow in catching up with her mother. But eventually he did make it every time.
However the night of May 27th was tough for our entire team as we knew the young prince had strayed a little too far and he was in danger. It was a night when a grieving mother battled an intruder and her cries echoed in the vast grasslands she owns. It was a night where we waited every minute for the sun to throw the slightest of light on a small water puddle which was the last refuge for a Prince who dreamt of ruling the river.
Your tales will be embedded in the soul of the rivers which have been your playground in the past one year. I pray for your the future generations of stripes who will continue to rule the rivers like you aspired to in the years to come.
I have been on the road since the first week of March. From a fortnight in high altitude terrains of Himalayas in search of Snow Leopards to shuttling between Corbett & Ranthambore guiding guests from South Africa, United States & United Kingdom. Here is a quick round up for March 2018.
The Snow Leopard Expedition was a memorable experience with 6 sightings of 8 individual cats. The tender mother and cub moments enthralled our guests and the bold male gave some excellent photographic opportunities.
Paro’s young cub in Corbett has been looking in great shape and being the lone cub he is growing up fast. His antics around the river and river beds of Dhikala would be etched in sighting records of Corbett for years to come. Ranthambore on the other hand has been going steady and the major turn of events has been the sudden surge in sightings of Krishna (T19) and cubs post March 2018. Machali Junior or Arrowhead littered in the last week of February but the cubs have not been seen post the first report and the survival of the young cubs is questionable. The other consistent sightings have been Laila (T41) and her Blue Eye male cub. Noor (T39) and her female litter of 3 cubs are now showing signs of separation. Ladli (T8) and the cubs have been regularly seen along with the separated male cubs of T60.
Stay tuned to this space for some more exciting summer reports from Wild India in the coming months.
February has been all about hopping between various tiger habitats of India. The month started with Ranthambore where my guests spent some productive sessions with Noor (T39) and cubs and the T60 separated male cubs. Glimpses of Machali Junior (T84) raised hopes of her pregnancy. The lakes have been drying up gradually the effects of a scanty monsoon is now clearly visible.
We then moved on to the action area of Dhikala in Corbett National Park where the winter mist continued to fascinate our guests. The elephants have dwindled as compared to January but still there were sizeable numbers considering we are still in the fading part of winters of India.
Post the sad demise of my friend and elder brother Rajwardhan Sharma, I had to gather a lot of courage to go back to Bandhavgarh. I avoided it for the past few months but work commitments have got me here again.
I have just arrived amidst memories of Raj saheb and as I am gearing up for the week out here in Bandhavgarh, his pleasant memories and the hours of time we have spent together are reinstating my belief that Bandhavgarh will never be the same without him.
I just wrapped up the second Corbett schedule for January 2018. This time it was a photo safari with a young talented bunch of shutterbugs in Dhikala. The highlight for this schedule was yet again elephants in the cloud of mist floating over the grasslands. It is very critical to value the importance of simple moments in the wild and focus your energies on them. I am glad that my guests realised the importance of photographing elephants in winters and some outstanding perspective were created every morning.
Thank you for the wonderful response to my book – A Decade with Tigers. I have been taking a note of each and every feedback you all have shared – both positive and negative. I hope you have enjoyed reading the stories of India’s top tiger brand ambassadors and in case you haven’t picked up a copy yet, log in to your Amazon or Flipkart accounts to get your copy today.
In the past 14 years I have documented the lives of some of the most iconic tigers of India. I am pleased to announce the launch of my book – A Decade with Tigers – which is a compilation of images and stories depicting love, romance, motherhood, rivalry and revenge in the world of tigers in the past decade. Here is a curtain raiser to the book.
