text: In a 1953 landmark publication, UNESCO underscored the importance of educating children in their mother-tongue (UNESCO, 1953). Yet, more than 50 years since the first UNESCO statement, and despite a plethora of books, articles, numerous conventions, declarations and recommendations addressing this issue, including a range of conclusive experiments of using local languages in education and polity, most African countries continue to use the former colonial language as the primary language of instruction and governance. This advocacy brief seeks to show the pivotal role of languages in achieving good quality learning. It aims in particular to dispel prejudice and confusion about African languages, and exposes the often hidden attempt to discredit them as being an obstacle to learning. It draws on research and practice to argue what kind of language policy in education would be most appropriate for Africa.

There are two kinds of risk, one is perceived risk, the other is real risk.
After a stock skyrocketed, the real risk rose, but perceived risk fell. When $SSEC (Shanghai Index) reach 6000 in 2007, stock market’s most dangerous time, everybody felt like to sing and dance to celebrate the good times. After the stock market plummeted, the real risk fell, the perceived risk rose. But when the stock market reach relative low of 2000 point in 2008, people were feeling like a bleak storm.
To travel the same distance, death rate by car is more than 60 times higher than by plane. But there are many people who have flight phobia yet few who are afraid of travelling by car.
Perceived risk is big by plane, but real risk is small (the probability of an accident is only 1/6,000,000). So selling air insurance is a good business.
II. Exposed risk and hidden risk.
From another perspective, risk can be divided into exposed risk and hidden risk.
We should take exposed risk, because people have avoided the stock liked the plague, risk has been reflected in the price. Taking such risks will have a corresponding high return.
Instead, we must avoid hidden risks, because people are not aware of their existence, and there is no corresponding reward for taking such risks.
After 9/11 attacks, people dared not fly. However, for September 12th, compared with September 10th, the exposed risk is greater, but the hidden risk is smaller — the next decade is the safest in American aviation history.
In the months after 9/11, many people drove instead of flying, killing 1500 more people in highway crashes than usual.
The ability to distinguish between true and false risks often reflects the culture and capacity of a financial institution.
In sharp contrast, rival Smith Barney laid off all employees in the arbitrage division after Black Monday.
In fact, after Black Monday, exposed risk is very high, but hidden risk is low; perceived risk is high, but real risk is low.
The ability to distinguish and take advantage of the differences between the two kinds of risk is a necessary condition for successful investment.
III. Risk of price volatility and risk of permanent loss of capital.
In another perspective, risk can also be divided into the risk of price volatility and the risk of permanent loss of capital.
When the market is above 5000 points, the stock price is rising day by day, water is calm, risk of price volatility seems small, but the risk of permanent loss of capital is huge.
When the market was at 2000 points, share prices were falling, choppy, and the risk of price volatility seemed great, but the risk of permanent loss of capital had shrunk dramatically.
In the United States, the $VIX index measures market volatility. And each time the bottom of the market is accompanied by a high point of VIX, that is, when the market is most volatile.
Why do people often cut positions at the bottom?
It is because the market bottom is often also the most volatile time, and most investors are very weak to bear the risk of stock price volatility.
And they often confuse the risk of volatility at the bottom of the market with the risk of permanent loss of capital.
There was a story about a lovelorn man who found an old monk. He said, “master, I can’t put this off.” The old monk asked him to hold a tea-cup and pour into it hot water. The water eoverflowed and burned his hands. Then he put the cup down. Said the old monk, Your thing is the same as the cup of tea — burnt, then you will put it off.
Many people trade stock in the same way: price goes up, nice, then full position; price falls, pain, clear all the position. This is how low position at bottom and high position at peak come from.
In fact, for contrarian investors, the most painful time, is often the last time to let go.
As Soros put it, if you can’t afford to lose, don’t get into the market, because no one can win every game.
However, for professional investors who manage other people’s assets, the risk of market volatility is real risk. And in the event of client redemption or risk control forced stop-loss, it will be converted into the risk of permanent loss of capital.
So, for every fund manager, the prerequisite for success is to manage products that suits one’s investment style and to find a client base that suits one’s investment style.
IV. True vs. False Risks.
People often say, high risk, high return; low risk and low return.
In fact, risks and returns are often not proportional. It is indeed impossible not to take risk when investing.
However, successful investment is to take those risks that have been exposed, felt by everyone, with corresponding discount but very little real danger — those “false” risk.

A U.S. Department of Agriculture research team tested phytochemical-rich food as natural therapeutic agents against Trichomonas infections in humans and animals without harming beneficial gut microbes. They reported that theaflavin extracts from black tea were the most successful at inhibiting trichomonad growth.
Their findings were published in the science journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
Plants create bio-active phytochemicals as a side product of their natural processes. Earlier research showed that foods with large amounts of phytochemicals could inhibit pathogenic bacteria in food.
Trichomonads are parasites that cause trichomoniasis in humans and animals like cattle and cats. They are growing resistant to conventional drugs like metronidazole, which led researchers to look for alternative natural treatments.
Extracts from black tea, green tea, grape, pomegranate, and jujube fruit were tested on three trichomonads: Human T. vaginalis strain G3, bovine Tritrichomonas foetus strain D1, and feline T. foetus strain C1. The most potent extract was tested on two T. vaginalis strains that were resistant to metronidazole. They were also tested on normal bacteria found in the body.
The researchers reported that black tea was able to inhibit all trichomonads, especially T. vaginalis. The theaflavin in the tea was deemed responsible for this inhibition. Black tea did not affect the ordinary microbes.
Green tea, grape seeds, and pomegranates showed some effect on trichomonads, though not to the same widespread extent as black tea.
The researchers concluded that theaflavin extracts from black tea could serve as an alternative therapy for trichomoniasis in humans and animals.

Wonderful post, dear daughter. Keep it up!
I gave up FB for a little over a week…and I am vowing to spend less time on there. All of these things you pointed out are true for me too!
I can’t even tell you how liberating it has been. After I broke the cycle, I am just not drawn to any of the negative stuff anymore. It is amazing how much less time I spend when i am just scanning updates rather than clicking and reading everything that gets posted.

Let me help SAVE everyone who reads this post some BIG $ on cable & Internet.
I�m a teacher and live in RI but have 3 rental homes in The Villages (3br in Springdale, 2br Caroline, and a villa in Hillsborough). A tip here on TOTV led me to save big $. See below. I had Direct TV installed at 2 homes in May and will have the final one done when I visit in July.
1. Call Select Choice TV in Summerfield (third party broker for all providers) at 352-553-4921. I kept their ad from a Villages magazine in April and got Heba when I called (she has been great) but anyone can help. Her e-mail: hrobinson@selectchoicetv.com Get DIRECT TV. Free installation. It took less than 2 hours from time guy arrived until he was done. $24.99/mo for a year for the basic SELECT package (but that�s about 130 channels and free movie channels for 3 months). I added HD (high definition) at my 3br because I�ll be moving there in a year or so. That�s $10/mo. Each additional TV is $6/mo.
2. For INTERNET go with Comcast for $19.99/mo. Call 1-800-COMCAST. I was already a Comcast subscriber for cable and Internet. Their $19.99 rate is good for a year, and they gave me that rate no problem to keep me (normally just for new folks). It appears to be the cheapest of all providers. I have my own modem and Wifi device at all homes (they�re cheap at Wal-Mart; don�t rent).
4. No, I�m not a salesman, but if you switch and say I referred you, you get $10 off per month for 10 months. I used a lady�s account number from TOTV to get that. You too can have a bill for just $18.00 with taxes like I do ay my villa (one TV, no HD). Use acct # 14118982 to get $10 off when you call Select Choice TV.
E-mail me with any questions. I�m glad I switched. Picture is beautiful (even on non-HD TV at my villa). Enjoy the savings, and I�m happy to share what I�ve learned in the last 3 weeks.
Your info is geared more for people, who rent their homes out on a yearly basis.
1. The TV package is the standard offering, and anyone can get that.
2. Comcast is not always the best option, due to customer non service.
3. MagicJack is the way to go to keep phone bills at a minimum, but you have to be tech savvy to set one up.
4. Sorry, but asking people you don't know for referrals, seems to me a way to lower your own bill. Hence, all this info, that some people already know.
They managed to get the internet back and then lied to me telling me that an "emergency tech appointment" had been made for me for Sunday morning between 8 and 10 am. At 11:15 AM I called the main number again and was told (by the computer) that my service was actually scheduled for Tuesday between 1 and 3 PM .
at which time you have to tell them you are leaving and they will generally back down.

According to design thinking thought leaders, Tom and David Kelley, there are two prerequisites to a good design idea: a good question and empathy for your end-user.
So, where do you find a good question? Good questions come from close observation of your environment – it is in this detail that you will find insight and from insight, your line of enquiry. And end-user empathy? This is all about the old adage – walking in another’s shoes; seeing experiences through their eyes; understanding why people do what they do.
The art of design thinking is then about bringing the two together – taking your insights from both to inspire or validate your ideas. It is at this meeting place that the creative and solution-focused design sparks really start to fly!
And so, the challenge lies ahead. In just a few days, research partners from Côte d’Ivoire, Mozambique and Nigeria will be donning their design hats in Abidjan. Under the expert guidance of YAAY, our information design specialists, all collaborators will undertake a masterclass in design thinking.
This will be the second field-based collaborative session facilitated by PHISICC. It represents the next phase of the project’s mission to design an innovative intervention package through hands-on and co-creative workshops.
The focal area for the design work will be the paper-based health information systems currently operating in the primary health care systems of the three countries. The performance of these systems is challenged by a range of issues (read our reports here) and the project seeks to apply design principles in order to improve day-to-day processes, decision making and, ultimately, primary care health outcomes.
We would like to thank our research partners and hosts, CSRS in Côte d’Ivoire, for their ongoing support in organising the workshop and all our collaborators for their willingness to take the time to travel and attend the session. We really appreciate your commitment to PHISICC, especially at such a busy time of the year.
Safe travels and we look forward to meeting with you all soon.

Just like any other fun or sports activity, paddle boarding implies learning some tips and tricks before you actually get on water. Sure, you'll learn how to do it either way, but it pays off to know what to pay attention to upfront. A few stand up paddle boarding tips will help you learn faster and make your experience more exciting. Newbies may often ask themselves – is paddleboarding fun? Whether you do it as a workout or with your family, it might become your favorite water activity if done right.
You may not consider the importance of a leash at first, but sooner or later, you'll most likely invest in one (in case your paddle board doesn't have one). It's helpful for you, as well as the people around you.
There are more types of leashes out there, as well as specific attachment solutions. It depends on what kind of paddling you engage into.
Generally speaking, its main role is to keep the board next to you on fast or wavy waters, but also to ensure you don't harm the ones paddling around you.
Finding the best stand up paddle board is not everything if you have no idea how to do it in the right way.
Simply put, you're trying to paddle while maintaining your stability. But then, the paddle often goes the wrong way. It seems to be more efficient when you stand, as it puts less pressure on your arms and shoulders.
Most people will paddle in a trailing position. It works, indeed, but having the paddle in a vertical position will ensure more power and efficiency.
This will feel a little unusual. You're basically using your arms to paddle, yet most experts recommend using the core instead. Core muscles are stronger than arm muscles, so they offer more efficiency to your strokes.
Use your arms only and you'll feel tired within a few minutes. Plus, you won't get enough power and speed. When you use your core to rotate and push, you'll only have to keep the arms flexed without moving them too much.
At some point or another, everyone ends up falling while paddle boarding. Whether you attempt a paddleboarding workout or you do it for fun, it's just part of the game.
Falling the right way is more important than trying not to fall because it can prevent unwanted injuries. Simply put, try to fall away from the board. Push yourself through the air when it's about to happen. Boards are hard and can hurt you. Imagine biting it as you fall – not a good feeling. Don't worry about the board as it won't go away, especially if you have a leash on you.
In the end, these are the most important stand up paddle boarding tips to focus on as you learn. Everyone can learn how to do it properly, but knowing the basics will ease your experience. So, are you ready to paddle board? Check out our article on the best SUP in the market today.

You can roll over an IRA into an HSA once in your lifetime. You may save on taxes, but the rules are tricky.
I thought you could make a tax-free rollover from retirement savings into a health savings account, but my 401(k) administrator says that I can’t roll over my 401(k) into an HSA.
You can make a tax-free rollover into an HSA from an IRA, but not from a 401(k), 457 or other retirement plan. However, if you have a 401(k) from a former employer, you may be able to make the move in two steps: Roll it over into an IRA first, then make a tax-free direct transfer from the IRA into your HSA.
You can then use the money in the HSA tax-free for medical expenses in any year. If you take money out of a traditional IRA to pay medical expenses (or anything else), you’ll have to pay taxes on the withdrawal and may have to pay a 10 percent penalty if you’re under 59½ (you can make penalty-free IRA withdrawals for medical expenses that are more than 10 percent of your adjusted gross income for the year, or more than 7.5 percent if you are 65 or older).
There are a few caveats: You can make a tax-free rollover from an IRA to an HSA only once in your lifetime, and you must qualify to make new HSA contributions that year (in 2016, you must have a health insurance policy with a deductible of at least $1,300 for individual coverage or $2,600 for family coverage). The size of the rollover is limited to the annual HSA contribution limit minus any money you’ve already contributed for the year. In 2016, you can contribute up to $3,350 to an HSA if you have individual coverage or $6,750 for family coverage, plus an extra $1,000 if you’re 55 or older anytime during the year. Contact your IRA and HSA administrator about making a direct transfer from one account to the other.
If you have the extra cash, it’s usually better to use new money for HSA contributions. That way, you can keep more money growing tax-deferred in your IRA and also take a tax deduction for new HSA contributions.

One of the most common situations for a hiring business lawyer is for business. Contrary to the belief, there are a lot of situations that occur in the course of doing business that requires expertise. Specialized legal help in this sector might include situations where writing business contracts are required. From consumer to business or business to business, a business owner might need someone to litigate disputes between parties. Credit collections and umbrella categories are also business situations that require an experienced attorney. Below are 5 situations when you need a business lawyer.
Ownership issues and growth issues and other legal issues can and do arise while managing a business. An experienced business attorney can help you determine if you should be a corporation or a limited liability company (LLC).
Additionally, they can help with contracts for clients, understand contracts, and understand your business. Other mitigating circumstances like an acquisition or merger with another business, zoning compliance, registering federal trademarks, and copyright protections are all areas where an experienced attorney can help your business.
Estate planning is something that businesses and individuals alike need an experienced attorney. This is invaluable for protecting assets for the future. As your business expands, there are accumulating assets that need a place to go in the case of a sudden death.
No one is exempt from passing away, so it’s important to remember, you want your assets going where you want them to go. As an illustration, if there is not a type of protection plan in place, legal requirements in your state could turn your assets into a default state process called intestacy. This can have your assets going to people that you didn’t want them to go to.
Family law issues are a very popular situation that most people find themselves in at one time or another. Divorce decrees and parental rights can change and modifications to the decree will need the help of an attorney. Situations like child custody, visitation, spousal support, child support, paternity, and guardianship are all situations where an experienced attorney can make a difference in your favor.
Adoption is also another situation where an attorney can help to negotiate fair terms on your behalf as well as communications with the adoption agency.
If a business or employee of that business is being charged with a crime, an experienced criminal lawyer is most certainly someone you would want on your side. These types of attorneys have prior relations with district attorneys and prior experience with the presiding magistrate.
They have professional researchers and investigators on their payroll that will do whatever it takes to prove your case. Additionally, they have access to other resources that are not available to the average citizen. When you have an experienced criminal lawyer on your side, you get fair representation on your behalf in a court of law.
When you are a business owner you can not always avoid a personal injury that occurs on your business property. These are known as civil matters in a court of law. No crime has actually been committed; however, negligence or an accident has occurred. The law calls this a tort and it is an infringement or wrongful act of a right that results in a civil legal liability. To put it another way, the injured party is deemed the right to be compensated in full by the responsible party.
A personal injury lawyer will ensure that your business does not exceed the allowable amount due to the claimant and protect your business from fraudulent personal injury claims.

Essence’s HDACC bridges the gap between Blu-ray music content and legacy audio systems with an extremely adjustable and great-sounding DAC.
The most unusual product in this roundup is the HDACC HD Audio Center from Essence Electrostatic, a company that also markets flat-diaphragm loudspeakers. Like the NAD, it qualifies as a headphone amp, DAC, and stereo preamp with TosLink, coax, and analog inputs. But its greater claim to fame is a pair of HDMI jacks, input and output, on the back panel.
Why add HDMI to what Essence refers to as a digital preamp? The company wants to unleash the high-res audio content found on Blu-ray Discs and make it playable on pre-HDMI preamps or receivers. The HDACC accepts the HDMI input from a Blu-ray player, decodes the uncompressed PCM audio from the disc’s lossless soundtracks, and feeds it to your audio system via its analog or digital outputs; the HDMI out can pass video to your display. Along with the HDMI jacks, the back panel offers a USB jack, analog XLR stereo outputs, and various ins and outs (one of each for coaxial, optical, and analog RCA). The front panel’s quarter-inch headphone jack is the only full-size headphone jack among these three products (the others use minijacks). An analog minijack input patches in mobile devices and converts their analog output to digital before upsampling it for playback. I contented myself with testing the USB (computer) and HDMI (Blu-ray player) input.
The unit is a breeze to operate, thanks to a clickstopped volume knob that’s easy to twirl with fingers or even just flick with a thumb. I used it with pleasure. Power and mute buttons are on the top edge. Essence provides a mini-remote that handles power, volume, mute, input select, and menu navigation. Even if you lose the remote, the volume knob can be spun to cycle through menu items and pressed to select the desired one.
Burrow into the menu to select headphone impedance of 16, 32, 64, 200, 300, or 600 ohms. You may also elect to set resampling on the ESS Sabre DAC to six rates from 44.4 to 192 kHz or just bypass sample-rate conversion altogether; the HDACC provides explicit sample-rate information on its display. The headphone and line outputs can be fixed or variable.
Running warm but not alarmingly so, the HDACC aced the USB demos. It had even more top-end control than the NAD, but not at the expense of detail. Tracks that sometimes drove the Sony ’phones into the discomfort zone with other amps—the Beethoven strings, the Scriabin piano trills, Jimmy Page’s wah-wah guitar—remained civilized with the HDACC. George Harrison’s sitar on “Norwegian Wood” was memorably tangy via the Sony and even tangier via the Sennheiser. With the Sennheiser and Audeze, the HDACC reconciled all the disparate elements in the Bob Marley track—the echo-enhanced lead vocal, loping bass, and grooving, chiming percussion, as well as the sweet vocal embel- lishments of the I-Threes—into a unified and natural vibe that must have been what the artist intended.
In the final act, I moved the HDACC to my main system to test its HDMI input with my Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray player. The two pieces of music that came in for closer scrutiny on Blu-ray Disc were Led Zeppelin’s Celebration Day and Carlos Kleiber’s recording of Beethoven’s Fifth. Be warned that these might have been apples-and-oranges comparisons. For Zep, I was comparing a Blu-ray Disc’s decoded DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack with a CD-ripped ALAC file. For Beethoven, I was comparing a “Pure Audio” Blu-ray Disc’s decoded Dolby TrueHD soundtrack at 96/24 with a FLAC download at 88.2/24. The mastering jobs may have also differed, as they did on “No Quarter” when Jimmy Page’s guitar, immovable in the ALAC file’s right channel, briefly panned from right to center to follow camera moves in the Blu-ray concert video.
On Pure Audio Blu-ray, the Beethoven track continued the train of thought, delivering orchestral immersion through all three headphones. The Sony’s presentation was still ever so slightly more forward than that of the others, but it became sweet and euphonic, while the other two sacrificed a little instrumental detail for a more spacious concert-hall ambience, with more emphasis on reflected sound. I could close my eyes and imagine myself in the recording venue, Vienna’s Musik- verein. No, it wasn’t a perfect reproduction of that gilded jewel box, but it meshed with my golden memory of the real thing.
The Essence HDACC is everything a good headphone amp and DAC should be, and then some. The addition of HDMI may be transformative for those looking for a way to get high-res Blu-ray soundtracks into a legacy system. But don’t ignore its other talents. It’s the only headphone amp in this roundup to offer selectable impedance matching, and the only DAC with selectable sample-rate conversion and bypass. It also performs admirably with a variety of headphones.

Invisalign in Naperville is one of the options for people who want to get braces. Many people do not like wearing braces. However, there are ways that you can benefit from wearing braces.
It is a lot harder for you to clean your teeth when they are not lined up properly. That is why misaligned teeth can put you at risk for developing gum disease. Braces can reduce your risk of gum disease and cavities by making it easier for you to clean your teeth.

Proper digestion is one of the keys to good health. If your teeth are not straight, then your food will not digest properly. The reason that misaligned teeth interfere with digestion is because they make it harder for you to chew.
If your teeth protrude, then they will be more likely to get injured. Injury often results from things like car crashes, accidentally falling and sports. Braces can prevent your teeth from getting injured.
While braces can improve your dental health and overall health, they can also boost your self-esteem. Braces will give you a nice smile. A nice smile will improve your overall appearance. You will also feel more comfortable smiling in public.

Salem Villa is our home for young girls. Established in 2001 we moved through various rented sites until we finally established our base in our present residence. We started with a single-story building and have since added a further story and an outbuilding. The children live in shared rooms that are arranged by age, with the youngest being overlooked by one of the elder children.
The home is run by a manager and assisted by 3 further staff who take on various responsibilities on site. Due to the location of the site, we also have a small mini-bus and a driver to take our children to and from church, school and to special events. By the Grace and provision of God we are able to provide for all the children’s food, clothing and education, and actively encourage our children to get involved in extra-curricular activities. Our girls are particularly interested in music, and arts and crafts.
We are very happy to see that many of the girls who grew up in the home have chosen to stay on to help nurture the younger girls. They act as ‘Akki’s’ (Big Sister’s) to the newcomers, and help them transition into the home; this has become a fundamental bedrock of our homes as children often need help and understanding to settle in.
The girls have warm hearts and vibrant personalities and they always leave a lasting impression on anyone who spends any time with them.

This weekend we got to see Japan’s overtime win in the finals of the Women’s World Cup. I do not confess to be much of a soccer fan, but even I eagerly watched the penalty kicks as an underdog Japanese team bested the U.S. squad. Let face it, Japan needed a win after the horrible trifecta of earthquakes, tsunami, and nuclear meltdown.
So today, we are taking a closer look at Japanese pop-up books. Long coveted with high price tags, I can only drool over photos and Ebay listings. Today I found a link to A Japanese Book, a small online bookseller based in, you guessed it, Japan. The owner has created a webpage that showcases 60 years of Japanese edition movable books, which you can find here.
I too am looking forward to the creative collaborations that continue to come out of this tiny island nation. Some of these pop-up books are simple adaptations of popular cartoon enterprises but as you scroll down to more recent titles you will see there are many winners; just like Coach Sasaki and his team of champions.

text: In many contemporary sectors, E-learning is often regarded as a ‘new’ form of learning that uses the affordances of the Internet to deliver customized, often interactive, learning materials and programs to diverse local and distant communities of practice. This view, however, is historically disconnected from its antecedent instantiations, failing to recognize the extensive links between developing educational theories and practices that had shaped the use of E-learning over the past 40 years. In addition, the historic divide between Education and Training has led to both the concurrent development of different notions, foci, and labels for technology-enhanced learning in different contexts and situations, and different conceptual origins arising in acquisitive and participatory learning metaphors.

The idea behind blockchain technology can be traced to 1991 when Stuart Haber and W. Scott Stornetta described the first work on a cryptographically secured chain of blocks. In 1992, they incorporated Merkle trees into the design allowing several documents to be collected into a block.
However, blockchain technology as we know it today gained significance from 2008 when a pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto published the Bitcoin white paper. Satoshi Nakamoto gave practical impetus to blockchain technology and solved the problem of double spending.
On 6 March 2014, Leah McGrath Goodman published an article in the Newsweek entitled “The Face Behind Bitcoin” in which she claimed that Dorian Nakamoto, a computer engineer, was the inventor of blockchain technology and bitcoin. She noted that Dorian Nakamoto was a Japanese man living in California whose real name was Satoshi Nakamoto. Dorian’s link with Japan further points to the possibility that he was indeed the inventor of the blockchain. The P2P Foundation profile of the pseudonymous Nakamoto identified him as a 37 year old man living in Japan. However, his use of perfect English suggested that he could not be living in Japan.
Goodman noted that circumstantial evidence showed that Dorian was the inventor of bitcoin and blockchain. When she asked Dorian about bitcoin, he seemed to confirm his identity by saying, “I am no longer involved in that and I cannot discuss it. It’s been turned over to other people. They are in charge of it now. I no longer have any connection.” Following increased media interests, Dorian claimed to have misunderstood Goodman’s question as relating to his work as a military contractor.
Hal Finney was a cryptographic pioneer prior to bitcoin. Other than Nakamoto, he was the first person to use bitcoin blockchain, make improvements and file bug reports. He was Dorian Nakamoto’s neighbour. On request of Andy Greenberg, writing analysis firm Juola & Associates compared samples of Finney’s writings with those of Nakamoto and concluded that they had the closest resemblance ever. Greenberg concluded that Finney may have used his neighbour, Dorian’s identity as a “drop” or was a ghostwriter on behalf of Nakamoto.
While all those who have been suspected to be Nakamoto have denied it, Steve Craig, an Australian has claimed to be Nakamoto. However, he has been dismissed as a Hoaxer for not producing sufficient evidence to link him to bitcoin blockchain.
There are many other people thought to have invented bitcoin blockchain but have denied it. It is possible that the technology was invented by a group of people.

Taking cue from Tushar Joag’s history with graphic novels in his own extraordinary artistic stride, our mentorship program conjured up its own nimble course with the students. Tushar set the tone for the workshop, first, by linking the idea of a graphic novel with ancient cave paintings of Ajanta, Jataka tales, patta chitra and then weaving the idea of ‘narrative’ through them.
Toying with the idea of a story for their own novella was the tool Tushar used to usher the students into thinking mode. Mulling over the plot of the story, they whipped up a scenario concertedly about the trials and tribulations that a woman has to endure in the world of beauty and glamour. Following that, Tushar initiated them into the technicalities and thematics that would be imminent in the ‘making’ of the illustrated novel.
Elements that go into the making of a story/novel with graphic representations were contemplated upon by each student. The ‘devices’, which have to be weaved in any story as part of the pipeline to achieve the final product, were turned over in their minds by our artist.
After bringing to fruition their ideas and thoughts in the form of the inked graphic novel, student Sama felt that her “favourite part of the whole process was the inking part where finally it felt like we had achieved something and the results were finally showing”. Subiya added to this saying, “It’s amazing to see how all of us, as different individuals, can have an opinion we all agree on”.
With every feature and dimension in place in their novella, the students drew caricatures of each other for the back page and the session’s epilogue came with each one eagerly waiting to savour their bound ink and paper creation.

Americans get one day a year, to behave badly and get some serious laughs. In my hometown, Halloween night saw the relocation of people's possessions including an outhouse, that would show up at the front door of our school.
With Halloween night on the way, you might want to bone up on these pranks, so you can be the funniest person at home or at work.
1. Hand In The Fridge- A classic. You can find a rubber hand almost anywhere this year. Stick it on a fruit salad or a brisket, and watch the fun, when anyone opens the door.
2. Toothpaste In The Oreos- Go buy a pack of Oreos and eat all the delicious filling out of each of them. Isn't this great so far? Replace the filling with any brand of toothpaste, that you like, just make sure it's white. Give them out as treats. Take some to work. Grab a handful for your Rotary meeting. Not only do your victims spit toothpaste for the next hour, you get a private snack..
3. Airhorn In The Closet- Get an airhorn and get in a closet at home, work, or church. When the door opens, bow the horn. It's just that simple.
4. Snake In The Toilet- Buy a plastic snake and put in the toilet at home or work. Leave the bathroom light on, so it's discovered by your victim before they sit down. Bonus points are awarded if your victim has a snake phobia, ophidiophobia and has to go to the ER for serious sedatives.
5. Life Coach- My personal favorite. Instead of dropping Reese's Peanut Butters in strange kid's bag, save them for later. Instead, I like to ask them their name, and drape my arm around their shoulder." "Ashton", I say, "you need to get your life together. You need to get a haircut and a job. I know you're only six, but life is horrible and you'd best get a jump on it now, or you'll go to prison." Yes, I hand out advice to our Trick Or Treaters. A Hershey bar, only lasts for a moment. Good living practices, from a total stranger, last a lifetime.

Amazon’s Kindle Fire broke every tablet price barrier we knew last year, when it hit the market, and many technology enthusiasts at that time predicted the advent of affordable and reliable Android-based slates.
Unfortunately, that didn’t happen and we’re still waiting for Amazon to come up with their second-gen Kindle Fires and for Google to out that much awaited Nexus Tablet. Before seeing these, however, you should take a look at Acer’s new Iconia Tab A110 7-incher, a gadget that looks almost too good for its price.
Unveiled at Computex Taipei without much glitter, the A110 is a redesigned and rehashed version of the A100 set to only cost around $200. Packing a snappy quad-core NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor under its hood, the new Iconia Tab A110 doesn’t have a release date just yet, but hopefully Acer will make this available before the outing of the Nexus Tablet.
The 7-incher’s design might not be the most original or innovative, but the matte, scratch-resistant and finger print-resistant back is a very nice touch. Measuring 11.4 mm (0.44 inches) in thickness, the A110 is a bit on the bulky side, but looks robust enough to take a hit or two.
Aside from the quad-core processor, Acer’s new 7-incher will come with 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of on-board memory, a 1024 x 600 pixels resolution display, a microSD card slot, HDMI, and a front-facing camera. There’s no rear-facing shooter, but the rest of the specs are pretty darn impressive and beat Amazon’s Kindle Fire by a mile.
In fact, the guys at The Verge, who’ve spent a few minutes alone with the tablet, have put it to a very quick Quadrant test. The results have been more than satisfying, with the A110 being slightly slower than the Asus Transformer Prime, but significantly snappier than Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 10.1, both of these tablets being more expensive than what Acer is planning to charge for the 7-incher.
The A110 is also set to run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich out of the box with very few customizations and UI tweaks, which should be a blessing for anyone looking for the best and “purest” software.
Aside from the A110, Acer is also planning the release of a new 10-inch tablet, going by the name of Iconia Tab A210. The big guy will be sporting a 1280 x 800 pixels resolution display and will also come packing an NVIDIA Tegra 3 chipset.
The rest of the features include 1 GB of RAM, 8 or 16 GB of internal memory, a 3,620 mAh battery, the running of Android ICS, a USB 2.0 port, a microSD card slot, a front-facing camera, and optional 3G connectivity. There’s no rear-facing shooter here as well, so chances are the A210 will also come at a decent price for its specs (hopefully under $300).
Are you intrigued by Acer’s new Android tablet duo? Will you be looking to purchase either of the two gadgets when they start selling? Let us know below!

“I have kids from 12 to 25 and there are varying degrees of how they feel about it [The Healing Codes]. I’ve told them all about it. My 25-year-old daughter, when she has time – she has three children – she uses it. She’s the one that had the baby that was healed. She uses it regularly.
I have an 18-year-old son that has used it three times and has an amazing experience every time. He quit playing WarCraft in just one session because he thought it was wasting his time – a video game.

Last year, Prospect broke the story that the Sudanese mobile phone entrepreneur Mo Ibrahim was to sponsor a prize for African leaders who improve the governance of their country. Every year, the winner will be awarded $500,000 for the subsequent ten years, followed by a lifetime pension worth $200,000 a year.
Yesterday, the first award went to Joaqium Chissano, former president of Mozambique. Chissano was a solid choice, and will have caused little surprise. Despite having been in power for 20 years—perhaps not quite the unambiguous signal to African leaders that commentators were expecting—the former president was an ideal candidate. During his time in office—1986 to 2005—he took his country from civil war to peace; instituted basic economic reforms; installed multiparty democracy; and merged the militias of the warring parties (RENAMO and FRELIMO) into a united armed forces.
Chissano’s trump card, though is that he handed over power, in February 2005, after a properly contested election, refusing to countenance the constitutional option of a third term. This is the “Mandela magic” that Dr Ibrahim is hoping will rapidly spread throughout the continent’s leaders.
Question marks remain over the prize. Yes, the winner can spend the money on whatever he likes. Yes, the cash could be stopped, should Chissano’s behaviour warrant it. No, the prize need not be awarded every year; if there were such a glut of candidates, it would never have been necessary. Yes, maybe the prize does paradoxically reinforce the “big man” archetype of African leadership. But it’s a start.
The prize will not cure all Africa’s ills, and nor is it trying to. But the founder of the prize is adamant that leadership is the place to start. In a ceremony marked by optimism, Ibrahim made sure to end on a high. Following the unveiling of the Mandela bronze in August, he warned Ken Livingstone, London had better watch out: we’re going to be needing a lot more grassy areas for statues of the next generation of African leaders.
Every year, the winner will be awarded $500,000 for the subsequent ten years, followed by a lifetime pension worth $200,000 a year.
